Summary
Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to CIA Covert Operations Officer, Mike Baker, and the best-selling author of Up In The Air, Walter Kirn about Rick Caruso telling Joe Rogan the shockingly long list of catastrophic failures by California leaders like Gavin Newsom and Karen Bass concerning the LAFD budget cuts, empty reservoirs and more that helped make the recent LA wildfires one of the most damaging California fires in history; Gavin Newsom admitting to CNN's Pamela Brown how the Pacific Palisades will not be allowed to rebuild in the same way and will have to center rebuilding around combatting climate change; JK Rowling reminding the left and Democrats how they helped give Trump a major win on protecting women's sports from trans athletes by passing the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act; White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt explaining to Sage Steele how President Trump plans to make sure that his executive order on protecting women's sports can't simply be reversed by another president; Donald Trump calling out reporters from POLITICO to their faces after the DOGE exposed how much money USAID was funneling to them; Bret Weinstein telling Joe Rogan how he looks at Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren in a much different way now; and much more.
