Old Biden tweet — 'No one is above the law' — gets fact-checked on X, and Elon’s response is hilarious



On Sunday, December 1, President Biden did what he vowed repeatedly not to do and pardoned his son Hunter for his federal crimes and any additional crimes he might have committed over the last decade.

Or — in the words of Dave Rubin — “Joe Biden, the elderly man pretending to be president, pardoned his crackhead son.”

As upsetting as it might be that Joe Biden lied when he pledged to accept the jury’s decision and not use his executive power to pardon Hunter, the decision should not come as a shock.

“Everything Joe Biden has done for the past four years has been a lie,” says Dave.

However predictable Biden’s decision was, it doesn’t mean that the nation is going to stomach it well.

Already, the backlash has been swift. Some of it has even been funny.

Dave displays a tweet from Biden from several months ago with a recently added community note beneath it.

“By pardoning his son Hunter, not merely for a single crime, but for all actual or potential crimes he may or may not have created over an eleven years period, Joe Biden has made it clear that some people are, in fact, above the law,” the note read.

However, Elon Musk’s response to this community note was perhaps even funnier.

Reposting Biden’s tweet with the note beneath it, the tech mogul wrote: “Community Notes slays.”

Dave agrees — community notes does indeed slay.

“The beauty of community notes, as you can see, [is that] they reference articles that you can then click into and see,” and then “you can rate it” based on its helpfulness,” says Dave. “This is sort of the fact-checking apparatus we've wanted for a long time.”

‘The View’ host worried about her mental health after Trump victory



President-elect Donald Trump won the presidency in a landslide against Vice President Kamala Harris, and liberal women everywhere are in shambles.

Particularly, the liberal women like Ana Navarro of “The View.”

“In 2016 at this time, the Women’s March was being planned. That began getting planned the election night and it began with a Facebook post of a housewife in Hawaii, and it turned into millions of women marching all over the country the day after the inauguration,” Navarro explained to the distraught panel.

“We’re all eight years older. I think a lot of us are still apoplectic that America voted against a qualified woman again and put in this racist misogynist, and they don’t care,” she continued. “And so it’s, like, it’s tiring. It is exhausting. It is disappointing.”


“This election cycle was like an emotional roller coaster, right? We had Joe Biden, the debate, two assassination attempts, Kamala coming in and running hard, leaving it all on the field for 107 days, and then we thought she was going to win like we did with Hillary in 2016 and she didn’t.”

“So I think people are exhausted. I think they are looking at taking care of themselves before they care of America,” she said. “I got to breathe. My mental health has got to be in a good place. My physical health has got to be in a good place. That doesn’t mean we’re going to tune out for four years, but it means we’re going to take some bubble baths for a little bit.”

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” is endlessly amused by the women on this particular show.

“First off, Donald Trump is not a racist, and he’s not a misogynist,” Rubin says, adding, “judge the guy by what he actually does, and then I think you’ll find yourself on the right side of history. And Ana, you will find yourself miserable and alone.”

Is Trump racist? Bill Maher and Stephen A. Smith have a SHOCKING answer



The left has labeled Donald Trump as a racist for years — but even some liberals are realizing that couldn’t be further from the truth.

“You know, what I think black people think about Trump, like, is he a racist? Yeah, but they think every white person is kind of a racist. And do they think that white people behind closed doors talk like Trump?” Bill Maher asked Stephen A. Smith on an episode of “Club Random.”

“That last part right there,” Smith responded excitedly. “Being a black man, you don’t look at white people and automatically think they’re racist. You automatically know they’re different than you, that they think different than you, that they come from a different cultural background and experience things differently.”

“So that second part is very, very important because when you talk about how Trump talks,” Smith continued, “We’re going like this, ‘So that’s the first time he talked like that, when he became president.’”


“We know better than that. We know that ain’t the first time, and we know that the people that he was friends with all of these years, he talked just like that around y’all. Y’all didn’t have no problem with it, don’t act like you have a problem,” he added.

Smith even went as far to admit that he and Trump “were friendly right before he ran for president.”

“If we’re being totally honest, all the brothers found him to be cool,” he added.

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” already knew this about Trump and isn’t impressed that Maher is flipping his position.

“They’re having their little struggle session over whether Donald Trump is racist or not, and then suddenly, Bill Maher is now saying he’s not racist. Like, Bill, love you, but I have no doubt if we did a little bit of research, we could probably find 50 videos of you relating him to Hitler or Nazis or white supremacists,” Rubin says.

Democrat legend attacks Jon Stewart of 'The Daily Show'  for lying to Democrats



If running on a platform that idolizes frivolous abortion, taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries for illegal immigrant inmates, the mutilation of children, DEI, and open borders isn’t considered “woke,” then most Americans don’t know what is.

Regardless, Bill Maher and Jon Stewart have apparently claimed that Kamala Harris did not run a “woke” campaign — and James Carville isn’t having it.

“I saw Bill Maher, I saw Jon Stewart, I saw different people,” Carville began in a video posted to social media, explaining that the discussions these figures had revolved around whether or not Harris’ woke campaign hurt Democrats' chances of beating Donald Trump.

“Of course it hurt us,” he said. “Jon Stewart says, ‘Well it couldn’t hurt because no Democrat ran on it.’ Of course they didn’t run on it, because it was even to the most clueless progressive that you could imagine, by that time, they knew it was a disaster. So in order to escape any responsibility, what happened, they said, ‘Well, that stuff was never used in 2024.’”


“Well, you’re f***ing wrong. It was used,” Carville continued. “In comedy, if you tell a bad joke, who gives a s***. You just tell a bad joke, and you throw the bad joke away. In politics, if you have a bad policy, particularly one as bad and stupid as this was, you may throw it away, but the other side gets to play.”

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” thinks Carville has made an excellent point.

“You’re making the right point there. You can’t run away from everything you just ran on. We’re watching them do it in real time, we’re watching them pretend they had nothing to do with any of this, but the entire Harris campaign was based on equity,” Rubin says.

“These were the people who every time we said, ‘Oh, you know, judging people by the color of their skin and not the color of their character, that’s a problem, that’s racism,’ they would be like, ‘No, no, no, we need quotas,’” he continues.

“So they ran on this, it was soundly rejected, and then to Carville’s point, now we get to use it against them. But they’re going to literally pretend they had nothing to do with it,” he adds.

‘Orwell would be proud’: UK investigating journalists under NEW ‘non-crime’ law



Free speech might be going strong in the United States, but the U.K. is only becoming more Orwellian by the day.

U.K. police have not only investigated a writer for a deleted post and a journalist for a tweet she posted in the wake of the pro-Palestinian protests, but also jailed a woman for nine months for livestreaming allegedly racist comments.

“Allison Pearson is the journalist; she’s actually just been let off by the Essex police. That story specifically was that a year ago in November, just after the October 7 massacre, she was in London and at a pro-Israel event and mistook a flag, which she though was a Hamas flag, which was actually a Pakistani, Imran Khan, his political party flag, and she said, ‘Oh, they’re Jew-haters,’” Winston Marshall tells Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report.”


Pearson deleted the tweet once her mistake was pointed out to her, but that didn’t stop the police from spending a year investigating her.

“She’s investigated, and we have this thing called a ‘non-crime hate incident,’” Marshall continues, while Rubin interjects, “Orwell would be proud.”

“Orwell was moderate compared to what’s going on,” Marshall argues. “A ‘non-crime hate incident,’ this isn’t a real crime. It’s if someone perceives you to be spreading hatred, and how they define hatred is different in every bloody country.”

“If someone perceives you to be offensive to someone, even if you’re not the person being offended, you can log a non-crime hate incident,” he continues, adding, “This week, a 9-year-old was booked by the police for calling another classmate a ‘r*tard’.”

Ellen DeGeneres packs her bags for the UK and says she’s 'never coming back'



Several Hollywood stars threatened to leave the United States if Donald Trump won the election. How many of them will prove good on their ultimatums remains to be seen.

However, one star who is most certainly on her way out of the country is Ellen DeGeneres. And she’s not just leaving; she’s “never coming back.”

Dave Rubin and co-hosts Winston Marshall and Isabel Brown discuss the television star’s exodus.

“She can't live in her Montecito house worth a hundred million dollars anymore with all of her servants. She's moving to the U.K.,” says Dave. “I am fairly certain that the jihadists running the streets of London love lesbians.”

“Please keep her,” sighs Marshall, who’s from the U.K. “Things are bad enough.”

In all seriousness though, liberal hysteria following Trump’s win has grown to comical levels.

“I read the other day that a cruise company is actually offering a four-year cruise for almost $200,000 at over 400 ports of entry for you to temporarily escape the country while Trump is president,” says Brown.

Further, it’s ironic DeGeneres is specifically fleeing to the U.K. where free speech “is not a guaranteed right.”

One would think that “talk show hosts like Ellen DeGeneres that are quite used to the protections of being able to say everything that's on [her] mind and to criticize the people in power” would appreciate our First Amendment, but apparently the U.K.’s Orwellian grip on speech is preferable, adds Brown.

‘You have all been paid to lie’: MSNBC hosts scared they might be laid off



Donald Trump’s victory was a massive win for a lot of reasons but perhaps one of the biggest is the light it reflected on just how poorly the mainstream media is actually doing.

Now, the hosts who have been spewing left-wing talking points and calling everyone they disagree with “Nazis” for the past eight years are starting to realize they’ve done something horribly wrong — and their livelihoods are now in jeopardy.

“In the last two-plus weeks since the election, it has become obvious that the online media and the alt media, whatever you want to call it, has just completely surpassed the corporate media, and they do not know what to do,” Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” comments.

And it’s not just the election results that have these mainstream hosts shaking in their boots.


In a recent report from the New York Post, it was revealed that MSNBC’s parent company Comcast confirmed a “massive spinoff of its cable properties — with a top executive even suggesting the left-leaning network may be forced to change its name.”

“The new entity could be cut off from the reporting muscle of NBC News,” the article continued, noting that Rachel Maddow, Chris Jansing, Katy Tur, and Joe Scarborough were among those alarmed by the news.

“It could not happen to a more deserving group of people. None of you deserve the attention, you don’t deserve the money, you don’t deserve the fame, or any of it. You have all been paid to lie,” Rubin comments.

‘The View’s’ legal team forces Sunny Hostin to correct her lies about Matt Gaetz on live TV, and the look on her face is VENOMOUS



Earlier this week, “The View’s” Sunny Hostin, who Dave Rubin believes is “the most racist person on mainstream TV,” went on “a somewhat unhinged rant about Matt Gaetz” — Trump’s pick for attorney general before he withdrew from his nomination.

“How could you nominate someone with allegations of child trafficking across state lines and having sex with a 17-year-old? My understanding further on in the interview, they discussed the fact that once he finds out that she’s 17, he stops having sex with her,” Hostin told the panel.

Two days later, Hostin was forced by the show’s legal team to correct this libelous smear against Matt Gaetz live on the air.

Dave plays the clip of Hostin “eating crow,” and the look on her face is priceless.

“Sunny, you have a legal note,” Whoopi Goldberg said to Hostin.

“I do have a legal note. Thank you, Whoopi,” Hostin retorted with venom before she began reading off the teleprompter.

“Matt Gaetz has long denied all allegations, calling the claims ‘invented’ and saying in a statement to ABC News that this false smear following a three-year criminal investigation should be viewed with great skepticism. That DOJ investigation was closed with no charges being brought,” she recited robotically with deadness in her eyes.

Although Dave doesn’t usually “revel in people’s misery,” in this case, he is absolutely “reveling in [Hostin’s] misery.”

“The stone-cold look and the crow that she had to eat on live television” makes him smile.

“Of course, what we know is this is purely political because if she liked him, she would never be saying these things,” says Dave. “It’s just a perfect moment.”

To watch Hostin’s pretty face twist in the bitterest sneer you’ve ever seen as she’s forced to backtrack her statements about Matt Gaetz, watch the episode above.

‘Morning Joe’s’ civil sit-down with Trump leaves ‘The View’ hosts FUMING



Like most of the mainstream media, MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” hosts, Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough, called Donald Trump “Hitler” for years.

Now they’re attempting to build a civil relationship with the president-elect, including by sitting down for a meeting with him — and “The View’s” Sunny Hostin could not be less thrilled.

“The bottom line is that America needs a free press that is willing to speak truth to power, right now, more than ever,” Hostin began.

“I think that we have to be very clear-eyed when we think about the president-elect and cover the president-elect, and I don’t think you need to sit down for 90 minutes a Mar a Lago and kiss his ring to be able to speak truth and to be able to cover a story,” she continued.


“So maybe they’re not journalists in the true sense, maybe they’re saying that they’re opinion journalists, but we have to remember that Trump is the guy who ushered in the era of fake news,” she concluded.

Of course, Ana Navarro wholeheartedly agreed.

“I think there’s a lot of people who are probably looking at what Joe and Mika did and find it opportunistic,” she said. “There are people who change their stripes, or maybe their spots, I should say today, depending on who is in power and what benefits them.”

“We don’t know what they’re going to do if he commits abuses of power as president. So, you know, everybody has to live with their decision. Everybody has to look at themselves in the mirror,” she added.

Surprisingly, Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” agrees.

“Yes, I’ve been saying you people have to look at yourselves in the mirror. I don’t think you’re quite there yet, Ana, although the Ozempic is working, but that’s not really what you should be looking in the mirror for,” Rubin says.

“What you should be looking in the mirror for is that your hypocrisy is off the charts. You think people change their stripes to be opportunistic? That’s kind of funny, Ana Navarro, because you used to work when you were a Republican, a conservative, for Marco Rubio, who’s now secretary of state,” he adds.

Between ‘massive cuts’ and ‘extremely entertaining’ levels of transparency, DOGE gears up to shrink the federal government



Over the weekend, Vivek Ramaswamy, who is poised to co-lead the Department of Government Efficiency alongside Elon Musk, met with Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo to elucidate their plans to slash federal agencies regardless of Deep State opposition.

Dave Rubin plays the clip of their conversation.

“Are you expecting to close down entire agencies?” Bartiromo asked, referring to Trump’s claims that he intends to shut down the Department of Education.

“We expect mass reductions; we expect certain agencies to be deleted outright; we expect mass reductions in force in areas of the federal government that are bloated; we expect massive cuts among federal contractors and others who are over-billing the federal government — so yes,” was Ramaswamy’s blunt answer.

Bartiromo’s next question was how he plans to get around “the Deep State.”

“Didn't President Biden put in plans to ensure that you're not going to be able to fire those people at all? How do you get around that?” she asked.

“President Biden has made a lot of changes trying to entrench the administrative state,” Ramaswamy confirmed, noting that the “Supreme Court has slapped them on the wrist numerous times” for this.

However, granted that we have “a president of the United States like Donald Trump elected with the mandate he's been given, both chambers of Congress belong to Republicans, a 6-3 conservative majority in the Supreme Court,” he’s hopeful that major change will happen.

“If we don't downsize the federal government now, it's never going to happen in the future,” he told Bartiromo, adding that “the key is to move quickly, to move effectively."

“Have you thought about moving some of these departments or agencies out of Washington?” Bartiromo asked next.

“Yes,” Ramaswamy stated, noting that they should be able to drastically cut federal agents by simply requiring employees to report to work in person.

“A lot of them won’t want to do that,” he said.

Further, they intend to “move many of [the agencies] out to be where they're more accountable to the people.”

While the plan sounds brutal, Ramaswamy said that their intention “is not to be cruel.”

“Most of them … are individually good people, and we want to be compassionate and generous in how we handle this transition, but the real issue is there's just too many of them,” he explained. “We shouldn't have 4 million civil servants who aren’t even elected or can’t be removed from their positions. It’s anti-democratic.”

Dave can’t wait to see Ramaswamy and Musk “find all the missing money and the ridiculous inefficiencies."

“Not only will businesses really start flourishing, but you will have more money in your pocket," he says.

Further, the DOGE plans to be 100% transparent in weeding out unnecessary agencies. In a recent tweet, Elon Musk outlined the DOGE's plans to be transparent.

“All actions of the Department of Government Efficiency will be posted online for maximum transparency. Any time the public thinks we are cutting something important or not cutting something wasteful, just let us know! We will also have a leaderboard for most insanely dumb spending of your tax dollars. This will be both extremely tragic and extremely entertaining.”

“This is what we’ve all wanted!” says Dave.
