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.
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.
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.
