Summary
Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks about "Shark Tank's" Kevin O'Leary going viral for his brutal attack on Gavin Newsom's record of running California into the ground; CNN's Dana Bash grilling Gavin Newsom on California's affordability crisis and why his state has the highest cost of living in the country; "The Issue Is" host Elex Michaelson giving evidence to Bernie Sanders why California's billionaire wealth tax has already backfired causing billionaires like Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Page and Sergey Brin to leave California permanently; Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez embarrassing herself on a global stage at the Munich Security Conference with her stuttering response to a question about how far America should go to defend Taiwan; Joe Rogan and Michael Malice ripping into Zohran Mamdani for his insane NYC budget proposal, which dwarfs the entire state of Florida; the "Real Time with Bill Maher" crowd being stunned by Bill Maher's warning for any young person getting their lessons about Western civilization from pop stars like Billie Eilish and Chappell Roan; and much more.
