Hey There Rubinites,
Hope you all are having a great week! Welcome to the tenth issue of The Rubin Recap! It’s crazy that we are already here! 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:
As if this month couldn’t get any crazier, it did. Biden has officially dropped out of the race and Kamala is up for the nomination. Hate to say I told you so but well…I told you so. As always, I made sure to stay on top of it, and shared my ideas on the whole debacle. Let’s get into it.
On Monday, we started off by talking about new questions emerging after President Biden announced he would end his re-election campaign and how the media and Democrat elites like Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and Alex Soros are already rallying around Kamala Harris as the presumptive Democratic nominee. I moved on to discuss, Elon Musk giving his brutal assessment of Kamala Harris, some flashbacks of Kamala Harris’ worst moments, including her disastrous interview with NBC News’ Lester Holt, where he called her out for lying about visiting the border during the migrant crisis, and the time that she was caught lying about Tupac and Snoop Dogg to “The Breakfast Club’s” Charlamagne tha God to appear cool. To end off our direct message for the day I referenced “The View’s” Sunny Hostin lecturing Joy Behar about why black voters will not tolerate anyone but Kamala Harris being the Democratic nominee and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. listed the numerous failures of Harris. After that, I dropped by my friend Megyn Kelly’s channel to discuss all of these topics and more before filming recorded footage for our new trailer. I also filmed an interview with NYU Professor Scott Galloway that will be posted next week so as always stay tuned!
On Tuesday, I began the daily DM by talking about Jordan Peterson’s controversial interview with Elon Musk for DailyWire+, in which Musk revealed never-before-shared details of his personal experience with gender-affirming care/puberty blockers and how his experience became the main motivating factor for his buying Twitter and taking on the “woke mind virus.” I moved on to Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle being grilled by Rep. James Comer (R-Ky.), Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.), and even progressive Democrat Rep. Ro Khanna (Calif.) for the complete failure to prevent the attempted assassination attempt of Donald Trump. I made sure to discuss how more questions are being asked about why Joe Biden has not been seen or photographed in public since stepping down from his re-election campaign and “The View’s” Sunny Hostin and Ana Navarro putting a bizarre spin on Joe Biden’s stepping down as well as his record as president. I had to point out Jack Posobiec telling Tucker Carlson why recent events are proof that the Deep State has lost control of the narrative because of the invention of social media and Michael Malice explaining the NPC meme to Joe Rogan. To end the day, I referenced Elon Musk explaining to Jordan Peterson how the Democratic Party's support of DEI and a war on meritocracy has led him to support the Republican Party. Tuesday was a busy day because right after I recorded an interview with Roseanne Barr as well as pre-records for video game content and reaction content! COMING THIS AUGUST!
On Wednesday we talked about Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy’s scathing attack on the Democratic Party for pretending to be the party that can save democracy as Democrat elites appoint Kamala Harris as the Democratic nominee while ignoring the will of Democrat voters. Then I made reference to Chuck Schumer being greeted by awkward silence as he tries to get the press excited for Kamala Harris. We moved on to Harris’ past appearance on “The View,” where Meghan McCain asked her if she supported the far-left policies of democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez as well as Karine Jean-Pierre’s embarrassing avoiding of questions from “The View’s” Alyssa Farah Griffin about Joe Biden’s health. I made sure to mention the clip of Elon Musk tellingJordan Peterson his honest opinion on Donald Trump’s leadership. Lastly, we ended the direct message by discussing “The Circuit’s” Emily Chang being stunned by Mark Zuckerberg’s surprising comments about Donald Trump’s reaction to the assassination attempt on his life. I also made sure to record lots of off-the-grid content for this upcoming month so be sure to stay on the lookout!
On Thursday, I discussed CNN’s Kaitlan Collins asking Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) to name one major accomplishment of Kamala Harris as well as the headlining news of Joe Biden finally speaking publicly about his decision to not seek re-election. We moved on to White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre fumbling to explain why Joe Biden should stay in office until the end of his term. I pointed out the major news that Kamala Harris skipped Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress with Elon Musk and Douglas Murray attending instead. Of course we took a look at Rashida Tlaib using Netanyahu’s speech to push her insulting propaganda and pro-Palestine protesters removing an American flag at Washington, D.C., protests and burning it. Lastly we talked about, Conor McGregor blaming Ireland’s government for the wave of immigrant crime. I also did a special “ask me anything” question-and-answer session on a wide-ranging host of topics, answering questions from all of you here on Locals! To cap it all off I interviewed former Israeli government spokesperson Eylon Levy in a special release that will debut this August while I’m off the grid!
Get ready because this Friday we will be releasing our weekly roundtable featuring the one and only David Sacks! I can’t wait for you all to watch it.
This Week’s Sit Down Interviews:
In my most recent Sit-Down I talked with The Daily Wire’s Michael Knowles. The two of us discussed the anticipated disarray at the Democratic National Convention, Matt Walsh's tweet criticizing identity politics at the Republican National Convention, the importance of the convention's inclusive approach to gain broad support, the necessity of embracing diversity to win elections, how Trump's consistency and the varied coalition of supporters reflect the GOP's evolving strategy and so much more. I would like to note though, this was filmed before the craziness of the whole Biden dropping out debacle so note that!
