Hey There Rubinites,

Hope you all are having a great week! Welcome to the twentieth and most EXCITING issue of The Rubin Recap yet! I’m thrilled 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: 

We finally did it. Donald J. Trump has been re-elected as the 47th president of the United States. If you happened to be under a rock this week and have absolutely no idea what happened don’t worry, as always I’ve still got you covered. Get ready for the best edition yet!

On Monday we had an insane show from start to finish. For this special edition of The Rubin Report I talked with co-hosts Dr. Phil, Glenn Beck, and Governor Ron DeSantis. We started off by discussing Joe Rogan getting John Fetterman to admit that the migrant crisis might help Democrats consolidate power in swing states by moving migrants to where Democratic voters are needed and Elon Musk pointing out how early polling in the swing state of Pennsylvania is showing promising signs of a Trump victory. Moving on we shared our thoughts on Ben Shapiro getting “Club Random” host Bill Maher to admit what he may have gotten wrong about Kamala Harris and JD Vance explaining to Joe Rogan how most politics has become focused on fake stories and distractions and Karoline Leavitt telling ABC News’ Elizabeth Schulze why Democrats have exposed themselves as hypocrites for continuing to condemn Donald Trump for divisive rhetoric. Lastly we ended the day off by discussing Kristen Welker being shocked by pollster Steve Kornacki revealing how voters are realizing how much better their lives were under a Trump presidency compared to a Joe Biden one.

Tuesday was the big day and it did not disappoint. We started the day off with an episode of the The Rubin Report where we talked about Joe Rogan finally sharing who he’s endorsing for president after posting his interview with Elon Musk and his discussing how most people have lost every shred of trust in mainstream media because of the countless lies they’ve been told about Donald Trump. I also discussed Elon Musk sharing how self-driving autonomous vehicles like Tesla’s new Cybercab could change mass transportation and the layout of cities as we currently know them and Ben Shapiro explaining to the hosts of the "Full Send Podcast" how an error by the U.S. census during the last population count could bring about a worst-case scenario in the counting of Electoral College points and force the Supreme Court to decide the winner of the election. I had to end the day off with my reaction to Megyn Kelly’s savage attack on Mark Cuban at a Trump rally.

Tuesday evening was a wild ride as I co-hosted the biggest election night live stream featuring Megyn Kelly, Ben Shapiro, Russell Brand, Bret Weinstein, Jordan Peterson, Adam Carolla, Dr. Phil, Glenn Beck, Clay Travis, Tom Bilyeu, Dr. Drew, Sage Steele, and many more as we provided real-time analysis and reaction to the 2024 election between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. 

Wednesday was all about Donald Trump’s stunning comeback victory as we analyzed everything from the UFC’s Dana White’s speech bringing Trump supporters to their feet and Elon Musk’s hilarious first tweet after Trump’s definitive victory. Some of the other post-election day topics discussed included, CNN’s Scott Jennings giving Anderson Cooper and Van Jones a hard wake-up call about the death of mainstream media’s influence on American voters, Elon Musk explaining to Tucker Carlson how Trump’s appearances on alternative media podcasts like Lex Fridman and Joe Rogan's helped him secure the popular vote, Ben Shapiro explaining what’s probably going through Joe Biden’s head right now, “Shark Tank’s” Kevin O’Leary explaining to Fox News how the Democratic Party can now be free to rebuild itself away from the influence of Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and Barack Obama and so much more. 

There’s nothing better than watching the radical left have a nervous breakdown after an event like this, so of course our first stop on Thursday was “The View.” I started the day of by talking about Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, and Joy Behar having a truly historic meltdown live on the air as they come to terms with Donald Trump’s landslide victory and Alyssa Farah Griffin pushing back on Sunny Hostin’s insulting attack on “uneducated white women.” The leftist media analysis continued with “Morning Joe’s” Joe Scarborough and Al Sharpton sounding like bigots as they call black men sexist and Latino men racist for not voting for a black woman. I moved on to Ben Shapiro sharing data that should scare Democrats about how America is turning more conservative and Mark Halperin explaining to Tucker Carlson why Trump’s victory is likely to lead to a mental health crisis unlike anything we’ve ever seen.

On Friday we had an exclusive Q & A where I answered all your questions here on Locals!

This Week’s Sit Down Interviews: 

This week I released my exclusive sit-down interview with Jillian Michaels where we discussed her transition from fitness to political discussions, her wake-up call about the politicization of health and how it pulled her into the political space, her first timer voting for Trump feeling alienated from her liberal peers due to her views, her evolving perspective on mainstream narratives, her comparison of “coming out” politically to coming out as bisexual decades ago, her frustration with corporate and political elites, including billionaires like George Soros and Bill Gates and so much more!

What better way to end off the week then by saying how happy and relieved I am that sanity is once again returning to America. With Trump as our president I know the country will go in the right direction once again.

Hey There Rubinites,

Hope you all are having a great week! Welcome to the nineteenth 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: 

Happy Halloweekend everyone 🎃! But before we do anything, let me give a brief recap of last week’s events. To start I joined Uncensored with Piers Morgan featuring Lary Elder, David Pakman and Democratic Strategist Ameshia Cross. Then I talked with Tudor Dixon before flying to New York City where I joined Jesse Watters primetime, Gutfeld, One Nation, Larry Kuldow. I ended it all off by joining a Trump Rally. It was absolutely electrifying.

This week was busy as usual, as election week is just a few days away! On Monday I talked about Joe Rogan’s interview with Donald Trump, where they discussed why voters no longer have any trust in the media and Trump’s past appearance on “The View,” where he was treated quite differently by Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar. I moved onto Trump’s massive rally at Madison Square Garden with Elon Musk, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Dr. Phil before giving my thoughts on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Tim Walz’s reactions to the rally and the off-color jokes of Tony Hinchcliffe. I also discussed Megyn Kelly having a tense exchange with Bill Maher on “Real Time with Bill Maher” over illegal immigration and why she is going to vote for Donald Trump as well as JD Vance getting into a tense exchange with CNN’s Jake Tapper over Russiagate and CNN’s blatant bias in favor of the Kamala Harris campaign. Lastly I ended the day off with CNN’s Anderson Cooper trashing the liberal bias of MSNBC to Charlamagne tha God.

On Tuesday, I discussed Byron Donalds calling out “Squawk Box” Andrew Ross Sorkin for claiming that Kamala Harris doesn’t engage in hateful rhetoric about Donald Trump and “The Daily Show’s” Jon Stewart going against the mainstream media narrative that Donald Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally was racist and admitting he finds Tony Hinchcliffe quite funny. I shared my thoughts on  “Morning Joe’s” Mika Brzezinski having a complete breakdown on the air over Donald Trump’s MSG rally in front of Whoopi Goldberg and Ana Navarro and Van Jones telling Bill Maher that black men are insane to vote for Donald Trump due to his support of Agenda 47, which will be harsher to criminals. I also referenced that clip of Kamala Harris struggling to get through a rally speech while protesters booed before moving onto Zachary Levi telling Megyn Kelly that the real reason to support Donald Trump is that he is being backed up by people like Tulsi Gabbard, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Vivek Ramaswamy, and Elon Musk. I ended the day off with Jeff Bezos announcing an end to the “woke” era of the Washington Post.

On Wednesday, I began by referring to Joe Biden harming Kamala Harris’ chance of winning the 2024 election by calling Trump supporters “garbage” in a bizarre repeat of Hillary Clinton’s infamous “deplorables” comment and Democrat Josh Shapiro telling CNN’s Kaitlan Collins why he would never insult Trump voters like Joe Biden. I moved onto CNN’s Franklin Leonard trying to convince Scott Jennings that Biden was misunderstood because of his stutter and Trump’s unexpected response to being told about Joe Biden’s “garbage” comments by Marco Rubio live at a rally. I also talked about CNN’s Harry Enten showing how current polling is showing data that could tip the election in favor of Republicans and give Donald Trump a win in the popular vote as well as the Electoral College.

On Thursday, I went live with a very special co-host, Hollywood actor Zachary Levi. We talked about so many things including, Donald Trump’s brilliant and epic response to Joe Biden calling Trump supporters garbage by holding a press conference in a garbage truck while wearing sanitation worker gear, NFL football legend Brett Favre speaking at Trump’s Green Bay rally and responding directly to Biden’s insult of Americans voting for Trump, “Shark Tank’s” Kevin O’Leary explaining to Fox News why Elon Musk might be the most qualified person to tackle government waste and wasteful government spending, Jillian Michaels trying to convince Bill Maher of Dave Rubin and Megyn Kelly’s election prediction, why he knows so many of Hollywood’s closeted Trump voters and so much more! 

Today I will be having my weekly roundtable featuring guests Representative Chip Roy and Representative Jim Jordan! Be sure to join us here.

This Week’s Sit Down Interviews: 

This week I released my sit-down interview with Calley Means where we talked about his background as a former lobbyist in the food and pharmaceutical industries, how the U.S. healthcare system profits off of worsening public health, how pharmaceutical companies influence medical education and policy, the impact of processed foods on American health, especially due to chemicals banned in Europe, the role of independent media in exposing corporate and institutional corruption,  how these systemic issues fuel populist movements in politics and so much more!

Get ready because next week I will be releasing my sit-down with Jillian Michaels. Keep on the lookout!

Weekly Motivation:

Let’s end the week off with some motivation:

Freedom is a fragile thing and is never more than one generation away from extinction. It is not our inheritance, it must be fought for and defended constantly by each generation, for it comes only once to a people. Those who have known freedom and then lost it have never known it again.” - Ronald Reagan

Hey There Rubinites,

Hope you all are having a great week! Welcome to the eighteenth 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 just one major news article/clip after another. As always I made sure to give you guys my exclusive insights and of course include some surprises along the way.

On Monday I welcomed the Daily Wire’s Michael Knowles to co host a special direct message segment with me and start off the week right. We began by discussing JD Vance’s successful turning of New York Times' Lulu Garcia-Navarro’s gotcha question regarding illegal immigration and the housing shortage against her. Additionally, also referenced the bizarre moment on; ABC News’ where Martha Raddatz minimized Venezuelan gangs taking over only a “handful” of apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado. We moved on to CNN’s Scott Jennings pointing out how the Harris campaign's pandering to voters, like having Tim Walz go hunting, isn't tricking black voters to vote for Kamala Harris and CNN showing how current polling is showing new party affiliation data that could tip the election in favor of Republicans. The two of us also talked about ”The Young Turks’” Ana Kasparian telling Jillian Michaels what finally made her leave the Left and realize the dangers of “wokeism” as well as Michael Shellenberger telling Joe Rogan how the Democratic Party has changed in disturbing ways. To end the day off we took a look at Donald Trump breaking the news that he will be appearing on Joe Rogan's show to the Nelk Boys on the “Full Send Podcast.” How do you think that is going to go? Drop the questions and topics you think Rogan will ask about in the comment section.

On Tuesday I initiated our segment by talking about how Bill Maher’s audience reacted to his analysis of Kamala’s latest poll numbers. I also mentioned that conversation between “Real Time” guests Buck Sexton and Laura Coates where he explained to her why the Democratic Party is losing so many working-class male voters. I thought one of the highlighted sections of the day was when we referenced Charlamagne tha God admitting to Andrew Schulz that his “Flagrant” interview with Donald Trump might just be helping him get elected and Nina Turner explaining to CNN’s Abby Phillip why Barack Obama’s lecturing of black male voters is completely backfiring. I made sure to discuss Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy losing his mind over Democrats gaslighting over the qualities of Kamala Harris before pivoting to our conclusion where I took a look at Elon Musk presenting a very reasonable idea to address the dangers of illegal immigration at the southern border.

Wednesday was just full of contentious conversations for both political candidates so I began the day by talking about Donald Trump’s heated interview with Bloomberg editor in chief John Micklethwait at the Economic Club of Chicago over the efficacy of tariffs as well as Kamala Harris’ disaster interview with “The Breakfast Club” Charlamagne tha God. I moved onto “Meet the Press'” Kristen Welker being shocked by pollster Steve Kornacki revealing how Trump is pulling ahead of Kamala Harris in almost all key polling categories as well as MSNBC’s John Heilemann telling “Morning Joe’s” Joe Scarborough that it’s time for Democrats to start panicking. Now how crazy is that?! Our daily DM also covered Larry David revealing to CNN’s Chris Wallace that his Trump derangement syndrome has only worsened and Nancy Pelosi telling "Politics Weekly America" how her relationship with Joe Biden has disintegrated since the Biden coup. To cap off a great show we referenced that clip of Ryan Girdusky educating CNN’s Abby Phillip and Bakari Sellers about the Ferguson effect.

Thursday. Boy, Thursday was just insanity. I began our DM by talking about Kamala Harris' disastrous interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier, where he asked her if she was partially responsible for the border crisis and the murders of Rachel Morin, Laken Riley, and Jocelyn Nungaray, which were allegedly committed by illegal migrants. I also discussed Baier asking Harris if she still advocated for taxpayer-funded gender reassignment surgeries for prison inmates. I really have to commend Baier. He did an amazing job, particularly considering his revelation that behind-the-scenes the Harris team had attempted to sabotage the interview from the start. I finished by discussing Bill Clinton’s inappropriate remarks at Ethel Kennedy’s funeral as well as my thoughts on a few other subjects. As always I hosted a special “ask me anything” question-and-answer session based on a wide range of questions from all of you here on Locals. Now’s your chance! Make sure to brainstorm a question to ask me for next week and your’s just might be featured on our show. 

Today, I had my weekly roundtable with the one and only Sage Steele! Hop on now to see our conversation.

This Week’s Sit Down Interviews: 

This week we released so many sit-down interviews! To begin I released the second part of my interview with former Ambassador to Israel David Friedman about the escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, Hezbollah's firing of thousands of missiles into Northern Israel, how Israel has severely damaged Hezbollah through military precision with its attack on Hezbollah's pager system, the importance of deterrence in the Middle East, how Israel's recent actions have shifted the power balance, Netanyahu's leadership and so much more!

I also had a great conversation with Dinesh D’Souza where we talked about his initial skepticism of Donald Trump, how Trump became a champion for the ignored people, why cultural elites now loathe him, Trump’s underestimation of government corruption, Trump’s learning curve regarding institutions like the FBI and CDC, how a potential second Trump term could correct past mistakes, the growing wide-tent political coalition with figures like RFK Jr. and Elon Musk and a an incredible amount more!

To finish off a fantastic week of sit-down interviews I talked to Spencer Klavan about the inspiration behind his book, "Light of the Mind, Light of the World: Illuminating Science Through Faith," how the COVID-19 pandemic revealed the dangers of treating science as a quasi-religion, the historical relationship between science and religion, where early science was rooted in religious belief, how quantum physics points to a complex reality that includes consciousness and transcendent principles, the need to reintegrate faith and science for a more humane approach, the potential and risks of AI and the role of human consciousness in understanding reality.

I want to know which Sit-Down was YOUR favorite! Tell me below. 

Looking Ahead:

Our new rebranded website has officially been released! Be sure to check it out here! What do you think of the new layout?
