For the SECOND TIME in ONE NIGHT, I witnessed fires being set by homeless people in Downtown Los Angeles Worse, calling 911 in LA is like calling FOREIGN TECH SUPPORT You have to listen to SPANISH PROMPTS before you speak to a 911 operator I KID YOU NOT! “Please do not hang up. Your call will be answered by the next available operator” *spanish AI prompt starts riffing* I WISH this was a joke 😂 Police showed up before LAFD, as I called and hung up twice before someone finally answered. I’ve NEVER called 911 in ANY city where I had to listen to automated hold dialogue prior to an operator answering.

Karoline Leavitt reveals what President Trump told her when critics said she was too young to be the White House press secretary. MAHER: “So is there anything that could make you... not be loyal to whatever he was doing?” LEAVITT: “He was my boss, but to me, he’s also a friend, and he gave me the opportunity of a lifetime. I mean, I don’t think I’d be sitting on your show right now if not for him giving me that chance.” “I’ve also seen him behind the scenes, as you have, and I know his heart... He’s been nothing but kind, uplifting, encouraging. He did name me the youngest press secretary ever, and a lot of people told him he shouldn’t.” “He told me that. He said, ‘Honey, lots of people said you were too young, and I told them I was building buildings in Manhattan when I was your age, and you can do it.’” [Applause]

David Friedberg says this isn’t Suicidal Empathy, these are Armchair Do-Gooders. He is referring to the French woman, who yelled “Do you know who I am? I am an activist who advocated for you all” as rioters destroyed her store. FRIEDBERG: “The look on her face, which was like, ‘What the hell happened,’ is meant to be this moment that sort of captures the zeitgeist of what some people call Suicidal Empathy, but I think it’s much more about being an Armchair Do-Gooder. An armchair do-gooder is someone who kind of sits at home in a nice home in the suburbs or wherever they live, and they say, ‘Let all the people in, take care of all the people.’ But as soon as the people show up to their front step and says, ‘Can I come and stay in your house?’ the answer is no, of course not.” “Someone else has to deal with it. Someone else has to house you. Someone else has to feed you. Someone else has to give you a job.” We’ve all seen this play out in the man-on-the-street interviews where people say they support policies that let immigrants in, but when it’s time to house them, suddenly they have no room. JASON CALACANIS: “We called this Limousine Liberals.” There have been many names for this. Rob Henderson calls them luxury beliefs… Open borders is one of his own examples. Everyone always seems surprised to find out their actions have consequences.
