Ingraham Angle – Interview with Laura Ingraham and Omeed Malik

Ingraham Angle/FOX News

May 26, 2023

Laura Ingraham: Joining me now is Omeed Malik, who is the founder and CEO at Farvahar Partners. Omeed, great to see you tonight. Now on the Angle, I mentioned how we’re starting to win this fight against the big corporations that have decided to fully embrace left-wing gender and race ideology and DEI, all that nonsense. And you are at the forefront of demonstrating how much consumer power most of America has against these trends that are just wildly unpopular, especially with parents. What do we need to know tonight about where we stand on this? 

Omeed Malik: It’s exactly what you said, let’s put a finer point on it, some numbers. Red America represents the third largest economy in the world by GDP. And it’s been ignored and alienated for over 15 years. So, the first step is to recognize that spending power you’re pointing out. And the second step, which we haven’t done until very recently, is do something about it. So yes, so as you know, this has become my life’s work to try to work on alternatives in the private sector for Americans that feel disenfranchised, and providing them solutions. Well, all we’ve had until now are people whining and boycotting, but ultimately, the money ends up flowing back. This has been a reckoning over the past few weeks, you had $20 billion wiped off Bud Light’s market cap, $8 billion off Target over just the last week. But now there’s a beneficiary in particular, one of the things I’m working on is taking a company called PublicSq. public, which is a patriotic digital marketplace that combines the buyers and sellers that want America to be the way that it always has been. And basically what’s happened right now in less than a year since it’s been national, I think I told you this earlier, it’s the number two most downloaded shopping app. 

Laura Ingraham: I saw that. 

Omeed Malik: On the App Store. It’s just phenomenal, extraordinary, Laura, extraordinary. 

Laura Ingraham: What’s wild is that my kids, I don’t know what the heck they’re buying, they’re going on Amazon. Like I don’t even know if I have the app on one of my devices we’re looking at. And then I saw PublicSq., I saw your app. And I said, how was this like – it came up, I think it came up before Amazon. Maria will tell me, she’s not here right now. 

Omeed Malik: It’s ahead –

Laura Ingraham: Yes, it’s wild. So, people are desperate to kind of stick a finger in the eye of those who insult them every day and say, you know, let’s support people that actually share at least a modicum of our values. Is that what’s happening? 

Omeed Malik: That’s exactly what’s happening. Because before what would happen is, you would maybe have a boycott briefly, but there were no private solutions to it. And so the elegance of PublicSq., as kind of this foundation for this parallel patriotic economy, is that we’re letting people find each other, which is why an exchange is like the most elegant first product to start with. And that’s exactly what’s happening. You and I have talked a lot about economic prosperity and some of the philosophies that are put forth by the politicians. But before you get there, you have to have economic liberty, which is what I’m most interested in. And I think that that’s what I’m focused on is ensuring economic liberty and freedom because they not only have co-opted institutions, but they’re using the private sector against us. And so funding companies like PublicSq., and generally, I think, three buckets of this economy where we’re going to be able to win is one, bucket one is this replication economy where you’re going to have products for the other half of America, the 100 million Americans that don’t have any. Public Square is the tip of the spear there. Number two is, as you pointed out, in your monologue, this theme of deglobalization, right? It’s only gone one way for 20 years. Now, after COVID, we’re recognizing that our –

Laura Ingraham: Bring it home. 

Omeed Malik: Biggest geopolitical foe – probably shouldn’t make everything for us, I don’t know, it seems like a novel idea. So, we need to bring manufacturing home, we need to start mining our own rare earth minerals here, not have the lithium market cornered by China or –

Laura Ingraham: Are you surprised, Omeed. Omeed, sorry to interrupt, but we’re almost out of time. But are you surprised that at the event with DeSantis, so little time, almost no time devoted to the economy, which is the number one issue for Americans across every political persuasion and ethnicity?

Omeed Malik: Yes, I agree, it is. And it’s on these topics that you’ll probably get in with Robert Kennedy Jr. too, who we both know is also really into this. The Bill of Rights is now something we have to worry about in the private sector. I think the economy is huge. I will say free speech, that’s the hallmark of the DeSantis campaign. So, I understand why they wanted to focus on some of those issues. But in order to win, as you pointed out, you really need to bring it back here. And again, the third bucket I’ll close with for you, Laura, is products that are still great businesses, but have been disenfranchised by this ESG cult, that’s effectively anti-American. So, think of fossil fuels and other productive businesses that cannot even get financing. So, it’s actually harming our national security. We need to finance those as well. So again, I’m going to remind your viewers, it’s about economic liberty. It’s only with economic liberty that we can have prosperity. 

Laura Ingraham: Yes, otherwise the banks will shut you down, the credit card companies and all the rest and that cannot be allowed to happen. Omeed, solutions oriented. Great to see you tonight.
