Robert De Niro and Mark Ruffalo are sounding the alarm about Republicans “stealing” the midterm elections — weeks before voters even head to the polls. Larry breaks down the Hollywood rally, Ruffalo’s extraordinary election warnings and what the rhetoric says about the closing stretch of the campaign.

Four weeks before Election Day, Gov. Kathy Hochul has named Attorney General Letitia James as "independent special prosecutor" in the Cornell University sexual assault case. No criminal charges were filed after the first review, and the case came back after reporting on a civil lawsuit. Larry looks at the press conference, at how Hochul, James and AOC all treat the lawsuit's claims as established fact, and at the Facebook post where James called the accuser a victim before her own investigation began. Asked about it, James said: "I will not comment on a Facebook post." Larry's question isn't who did it. It's whether a crime happened at all, and that's the exact question James seems to have answered already.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani sat down with Theo Von and pitched socialism as "dignity": housing, childcare and transit that the government provides. Larry likes Theo, but says he gave Mamdani a soft interview without one challenging question. Topics covered: who pays, and whether families who opt out still get taxed; Mamdani's 2021 "seize the means of production" line that didn't come up with Theo; why the cure for corporate cronyism is less government, not more; the viral rent-vs-income chart that compares inflation-adjusted and unadjusted numbers (hat tip to Brad Polumbo); and Mamdani's enthusiastic "yes" to the US joining the ICC and honoring its warrants, including against Netanyahu.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed campaigns on getting corporate money out of politics, but here he is at a fundraiser hosted by the Soros family, whose fellowship helped pay for his medical education. Larry goes through the double standard, El-Sayed's "I won't unilaterally disarm" excuse to Chuck Todd (Obama in 2008 vs. John McCain), and his claim that billionaires investing in the stock market does nothing for jobs. Also covered: the "1,000 millionaires instead of 1 billionaire" line (America already has about 23,600 millionaires for every billionaire, per Scott Jennings), a "Higher Learning" segment arguing American capitalism was built on slavery, and El-Sayed's surprising pitch to Black voters in Detroit.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
California’s gubernatorial candidates clashed in their only scheduled general-election debate, with fights over taxes, immigration, voter ID, AI and President Trump. Larry breaks down the strangest moments, including the confrontation over migrant children and the moment a reported Susan Rice insult became part of the debate itself.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Joe Scarborough had some surprisingly harsh words for Washington Democrats on Morning Joe, leading to an awkward exchange with Mika Brzezinski before the show responded to criticism from President Trump. Later, Scott Jennings and Abby Phillip clashed on CNN over diesel prices, refining capacity and whether additional U.S. refining could reduce exposure to global disruptions.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The latest midterm polls are getting plenty of attention, but how well have September polls actually predicted the final results? Larry follows up on yesterday’s polling breakdown with new CNN analysis comparing polling in Iowa, Ohio and Michigan with what ultimately happened in previous elections. Plus, a closer look at NY-17, Ohio and the historical polling record.Become a Townhall VIP member with promo code "LARRY": https://townhall.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
