1073. Andy & DJ CTI: Election Controversies, Absentee Ballot Envelopes Mysteriously Shipped To Soros & '60 Minutes' Profile Of Deported Husband

Episode of REAL AF with Andy Frisella · October 28, 2026 · 1 h 44 min

Andy Frisella and DJ discuss digital surveillance, Brazil's and Israel's elections, Maine absentee ballot envelopes, Israel's US influence, a 60 Minutes deportation profile, and a viral youth-soccer controversy.

Summary

In this "Cruise the Internet" episode, Andy Frisella and DJ opened with a Firefox commercial that led into a discussion of digital surveillance. Frisella argued that most people do not grasp how much they are surveilled and have resigned themselves to it, and speculated that young people drink less because they fear being filmed in public. The producer cited Apple's $95 million settlement over Siri eavesdropping.

DJ described Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva's runoff victory over Flávio Bolsonaro in Brazil, alleging that a Supreme Court justice who had been Lula's lawyer extended voting by two hours. The hosts then turned to Israel's election, where DJ said Benjamin Netanyahu was trailing. Frisella blamed Netanyahu for global antisemitism and for Israel's danger from Iran, and argued that Israel should be decoupled from the United States. They discussed a report that hundreds of Maine absentee ballot envelopes were shipped to a Soros-linked nonprofit in Maryland, and criticized large political donations from either party. They were also skeptical of Trump's $1 million reward for reporting voter fraud, with Frisella saying it meant nothing without arrests. They reacted to a clip of a federal judge describing trips taking judges to Israel, which Frisella called bribery. Frisella also made disputed historical claims about World War II, and DJ relayed unverified allegations about Jared Kushner and Susie Wiles.

The hosts criticized a 60 Minutes profile of Moussa Diawara, a Malian man deported to Ghana, highlighting DHS claims that he had falsely said he was gay on his asylum application, and played DHS general counsel James Percival disputing violent-crime statistics. Frisella blamed open-border advocates for the hardships of deportation and argued that America is the least racist country. They ended with a segment on a three-year-old soccer player removed from a Florida league, which they concluded had been misrepresented as a racial incident, and Frisella argued that parents are the problem in youth sports.
