AD_4nXc3p_HvnI24VSd_q2bJik8hxWhdBhiLLLqtTHN0Z1jcIRL63QkCDam5cUagz-65bYiD5CyH5ueTX8Wr53LRc5Ad-Eg1bspnzx4LeXPPZmAZELCE5iMNJMkEKqeQshqIlGvLrCVfoiJP3BCwNOk5OpkFzV4P?key=iK_aUDx-DbNzHjJAis6BMg


Hey There Rubinites,

Hope you all are having a great week! Welcome to the seventeenth issue of The Rubin Recap! I’m excited to continue sharing facts, insights, and more while always hearing your thoughts on all things Rubin Report. Let’s get into it!

This Week on The Rubin Report: 

This week was super busy and we had so much to cover! Don’t worry as always I made sure to keep you all up to date on everything, but before I get into anything I’d just like to send my prayers to everyone who has been impacted by the hurricanes in North Carolina and Florida. Our thoughts are with you. 

On Monday I started the day off by talking about Elon Musk’s surprise appearance at Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Trump was previously shot in a failed assassination attempt. I then shared my thoughts on Elon Musk’s allegations of how FEMA is interfering with the deployment of Starlink terminals to victims of Hurricane Helene in Asheville, North Carolina as well as a leaked FEMA meeting that shows FEMA employees pushing FEMA to focus on helping LGBTQ communities and disaster equity. I moved on to shocking allegations from a truck driver about the lack of aid from FEMA coming into the Asheville, North Carolina, region as the Biden-Harris administration is coming under fire for failing to help in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene and Kamala Harris’ appearance on the “Call Her Daddy Podcast” with Alexandra Cooper. Lastly I discussed Kamala Harris’ teleprompter disaster and ended the day off on a somber note commemorating the anniversary of 10/7 through a firsthand account from a survivor of the October 7 attacks by Hamas. Later that day I attended the “We Will Dance Again Dinner,” in honor of 10/7. 

AD_4nXdDvNgkyQou6EXNhw8-WnuV1W2nKV1Dowfr9o_oQpFQTlNfCMUWt3BH4_puY3Jun9Q6JS2KsP3piF83pTI1aPRIh1EQWTNTw652wlNRQ0CXirJ4Ynk3Qao5umzA77boAyr3v1KmQE4YXZqbm_w4HrmBxBh7?key=iK_aUDx-DbNzHjJAis6BMg

On Tuesday I talked about “60 Minutes’” Bill Whitaker grilling Kamala Harris in her first tough interview, where she failed to answer his relentless questions about the causes of the migrant crisis and her constant flip-flopping as well as CNN’s Dana Bash admitting on camera that Kamala Harris’ media blitz isn’t seeming to affect her polling numbers with voters and that Kamala’s campaign is getting scared. Then I moved on to Lara Trump getting into a tense back-and-forth with CNN’s Dana Bash over Hurricane Helene victims being given only $750 from Democrats, while the government apparently has endless money to help illegal migrants and Joe Rogan telling guest Shawn Ryan the real reason that a Kamala Harris presidency would be a disaster. Lastly I ended the day off sharing my thoughts on Elon Musk explaining to Tucker Carlson how the Democrat Party plans to exploit the migrant crisis to remain in power and Teamster President Sean O’Brien telling “This Past Weekend’s” Theo Von why the Teamsters have finally turned their backs on Democrats and what happened in his meeting with Chuck Schumer.

On Wednesday we discussed Kamala Harris stunning “The View’s” Ana Navarro with her blatant willingness to exploit the victims of Hurricane Helene for political gain and Joe Biden accidentally proving that Kamala was lying about her interactions with Ron DeSantis about Hurricane Milton. Then I shared my thoughts on CNN’s Abby Phillip being stunned by her liberal guest agreeing with Scott Jennings about how Kamala lied about Ron DeSantis and CBS News getting caught editing Kamala Harris’ answers during her interview with “60 Minutes’” Bill Whitaker. Lastly, I finished the episode talking about "The View’s" Sunny Hostin asking Kamala Harris how she’s different from Joe Biden and Mark Cuban telling the “All-In Podcast” how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris created the border crisis.

AD_4nXcbunG_FBK-b5uc2XsjRIIzmfbdwgC-1OQ8bSgbUQ-3S-22q72xpXWC9Kc8R5uH9lQjN5KHXHdLUA8AVDKhBiHk4bZN1iWxwC89-c6qLO7Dd8d__Vh19Dhl5NyRqtdCKrIQFQdn0f_95vP-NappONACMCC4?key=iK_aUDx-DbNzHjJAis6BMg

On Thursday I started the day off talking about Donald Trump’s hilarious interview on the "Flagrant" podcast with hosts Andrew Schulz and Akaash Singh and Megyn Kelly’s astute observation about Kamala Harris’ media blitz appearances on “The View,” “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” “Call Her Daddy,” and "The Howard Stern Show." Then, I discussed CNN’s Dana Bash admitting that inside Democrat sources are beginning to get anxious as Kamala Harris’ media appearances don’t seem to be helping her polling numbers and Whoopi Goldberg of "The View" giving a bizarre message to anyone voting for Trump. I also shared my thoughts on Kamala Harris’ awkward hot-mic moment during a live broadcast of a FEMA zoom meeting as well as Joe Biden throwing Kamala Harris under the bus by agreeing with Ron DeSantis about his communication about Hurricane Milton. As usual I also did a special “ask me anything” question-and-answer session on a wide-ranging host of topics, from all of you here on Locals.

Today, we had a roundtable with Emily Saves American and Arynne Wexler. I also went over to the Jillian Michael podcast. Lastly, we had an exciting shoot for something so keep reading to find out. 


The Sit Down:

This week I released my special Sit Down interview with former Ambassador to Israel David Friedman where we talked about how Israel's recent actions have shifted the power balance, Netanyahu's leadership, particularly during the Rafa operation, which rescued hostages and uncovered smuggling routes, Israel’s military failure to detect the full scope of Hamas' terror network, the impossibility of a two-state solution given past failures in Gaza and the West Bank, Friedman's alternative proposal for one Jewish state with Israeli sovereignty over Palestinian territories and much more.

The Rubin Recap: Shana Tova!
Issue 16: October 2nd, 2024

Hey There Rubinites,

Hope you all are having a great week! Welcome to the sixteenth issue of The Rubin Recap! I’m excited to continue sharing facts, insights, and more while always hearing your thoughts on all things Rubin Report. Let’s get into it!

This Week on The Rubin Report: 

For those who are confused, the edition is coming out a bit earlier due to the holidays but don’t worry I made sure to cover everything you need to know. So without further ado here it goes. 

This week we’re taking it back to the weekend! On Sunday, I went backstage at Washington D.C.'s "Rescue the Republic Rally” with Russell Brand, Tulsi Gabbard, Zachary Levi, and Senator Ron Johnson to talk about the recent big-tent movement to bring together independent voters, Trump supporters, and disenfranchised Democrats. We released these clips on Monday and Tuesday during our DM segment so be sure to check them out!

AD_4nXcRx9vOmQ9qYVCwjssZOjsuzX5ytjH8wgRuXTOXQoQMjkVsm3_6wAxEXheYySAqAfedqMID_GhdnBbM06czqmpUKbqYUr6H_6itWrkHU-sHG6o0IlX5l8kUeG7x-7ZT7fO1Q4846fYANAD1MWjzKBKi8t26?key=eUNLs5_MI88Rb--1oF6nOQ

On Monday and Tuesday we went to Austin for a very exciting keynote and to meet some amazing and interesting people for our upcoming projects…Stay tuned!

Wednesday I returned back for a regular dm where I began the day of by talking about the first vice presidential debate between JD Vance and Tim Walz, where Tim Walz looked like a deer in headlights when Vance laid out how Joe Biden and Kamala Harris created the inflation that has been crippling American families. To continue on the debate theme we also referenced moderator Margaret Brennan calling out Tim Walz for lying in his answer about his trips to China,  how JD Vance had his mic muted when he fact-checked the moderators' fact-check about illegal immigration, and how even mainstream media like NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo and CNN’s Jake Tapper admitted that JD Vance easily beat Tim Walz. I made sure to cover Iran’s missile attack on Israel as well as Scott Jennings stunning his CNN panel by pointing out Kamala Harris’ staged photo pretending to be sending federal help to the victims of Hurricane Helene. We also discussed Elon Musk working with Donald Trump to get Starlink units to areas without communication capabilities after being hit by Hurricane Helene and ILA president Harold Daggett sounding like a mob boss with his threats to shut down the entire economy with the first major port strike of longshoreman in over 50 years. Lastly, we ended the day off with Jordan Peterson and Russell Brand’s inspiring words from the Rescue the Republic Rally.


The Sit Down:

This week I released special sit down interviews with Charlie Kirk and Piers Morgan.

Charlie and I discussed Trump's improved position compared to previous elections, how Florida and Ohio are no longer battleground states, the impact of Kamala Harris’ campaign strategies, how voter turnout will be critical for a Trump victory; concerns about potential election issues similar to 2020 and so much more! 

I had a really good talk with Piers discussing the global dominance of American politics in media, his extensive experience in American television,; his time with Donald Trump on “The Apprentice” and CNN, the change in CNN’s media bias in recent years, the growing dominance of digital media platforms like YouTube among younger audiences, how political discourse has devolved into hostility with both sides avoiding meaningful debate, concerns over the extreme Left adopting fascist-like tendencies John Legend rewriting “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” while ignoring misogynistic lyrics in rap music and so much more!

Hey There Rubinites,

Hope you all are having a great week! Welcome to the fifteenth issue of The Rubin Recap! I’m excited to continue sharing facts, insights, and more while always hearing your thoughts on all things Rubin Report. Let’s get into it!

This Week on The Rubin Report: 

This week was quite the whirlwind when it came to news. Don’t worry, as always I made sure to cover everything from Kamala’s first solo interview on MSNBC to Biden’s interview on the View.

AD_4nXdVXoa9JywTlxk6gLHHZFW8gRdfRdjKnYf2N9gExHcEtJjc63h7sHml-EtamhDuDJjDMC7x9d-hlUc3S10n_Q4hZGma4U4D8vpZx595M6DUC3_dy0E7WygA9_nz-_EZ-9MK63fLJhQT30AFDKYy020A9RbT?key=eUNLs5_MI88Rb--1oF6nOQ

On Monday, I started the day off by talking about Jordan Peterson shocking Piers Morgan by telling him whether he trusts Trump, what Elon Musk’s support of Trump really means, and why he would vote for Trump. We moved on to Whitley Yates telling MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart and Meghan Hays why Oprah Winfrey’s interview with Kamala Harris seems to be backfiring with working-class voters and CNN’s failed attempt to shame a Trump supporter for owning a boat while being frustrated by inflation and the high cost of living. I made sure to cover Dana Bash admitting to Donny Deutsch that ABC News made a massive mistake by letting debate moderator David Muir do a one-sided fact-check during the presidential debate and ended off the direct message with my thoughts on Keir Starmer making Christopher Hitchens’ warning about Islamophobia come true.

On Tuesday, I invited special co-host Clay Travis to talk about Bill Maher explaining in simple terms why Kamala Harris can’t win to his audience and Ben Shapiro as well as “Real Time” guests Stephanie Ruhle and Bret Stephens sparring over Kamala Harris’ complete avoidance of interviews and being challenged on her flip-flopping policy decisions. We also discussed CNN’s Michael Eric Dyson using Nancy Mace’s mispronunciation of “Kamala” to attack her. Clay also covered what was said to CNN’s Brooke Baldwin that got him banned from CNN and how Common Core math really compares to the old math most of us learned in school. Lastly, we had to finish the day off with TMZ’s exclusive footage of Sean “Diddy” Combs being arrested  and Usher deleting all his Tweets that could be used as evidence against Combs.

AD_4nXcabBn9VOtx1FiKk47PKzIIvSfU6xpWLX-5oABhg8pJzCUemZjjYZquaoWCWUJe0G-Lhw5i3c0hDT-ipGuzJroKv9o2JtaGXBxdDo-TgeoksSurizYW8s8x7VskA1m53SW5QOlFCCNXtWnjffag0zrWb8Po?key=eUNLs5_MI88Rb--1oF6nOQ

Wednesday was a busy day! We began by talking about Justin Trudeau’s appearance on “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” where he raved about how amazing universal health care in Canada is while leaving out any details about the various shortages of health essentials like MRI machines as well as “Shark Tank’s” Kevin O'Leary telling the Nelk Boys at the “Full Send Podcast” how Justin Trudeau is driving Canada into the ground. I moved on to the “All-In Podcast’s” Jason Calacanis being publicly humiliated by Megyn Kelly’s legal knowledge of the inner workings of the various Trump trials and JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon telling CNBC’s "Squawk Box" hosts how the border crisis has woken up his liberal NY friends about the dangers of illegal immigration. I made sure to reference “Shark Tank’s” Kevin O'Leary telling Fox News’ Sandra Smith why Kamala Harris’ economic plan appears to be meaningless smoke and mirrors. Lastly, we completed our DM with my thoughts on Bill Maher not knowing what to think of Bjørn Lomborg’s data-backed correction of the media’s narrative about the death of the Great Barrier Reef. But that’s not all! I also had a special interview with the one and only Charlie Kirk set to be released soon! Keep an eye out in your mailboxes for those special clips coming soon!

On Thursday, I talked about Joe Biden’s appearance on “The View,” where Whoopi Goldberg went off script about her anger related to the “Biden coup” and Alyssa Farah Griffin asking Biden the one question he didn’t want to answer. I then discussed MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle asking Kamala Harris about her insane plan for price controls to address price-gouging  and high grocery prices, as well her plan to “holistically” create more affordable housing to fight the housing affordability crisis. I moved on to New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ first public statement after being indicted by federal authorities and my thoughts on whether Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had any advance warning of the indictment. I also made sure to check out a shocking clip on Charlie Kirk’s message for gay conservatives. I ended the day off by completing a special “ask me anything” question-and-answer session on a wide-ranging host of topics, answering questions from so many of you here on Locals!

AD_4nXdaTnc_qsy1luWKSPmTy6BbSTd8RwWImbl2W3kA7i1unNZ8QHMCxlQuN-kJoT8FY_iG3GuOzHOJgXYaAcwAr1IzalbwBP4tzX5DR-ci_f-pqxVNzUiW1Xp-6NW1wyOEnXzCqSD88N4_0m-JaPcltXia4vzn?key=eUNLs5_MI88Rb--1oF6nOQ

Get ready because next week I have special Sit Downs to be released with political commentator Dinesh D’Sousza and former United States Ambassador to Israel David Friedman.
