00:00:28.000That was the Kingsman covering the greatest song ever made.
00:00:32.000Actually, the original is just some boring Jamaican love song.
00:00:36.000The Kingsman's cover is the greatest song ever made, and you can learn more about it when I go through my album of all Louie Louie recordings.
00:00:43.000I believe the album's called Louie Louie, and that's on our other hit show, Off the Record, which is a smash hit.
00:00:54.000Ezra Levant just got back from the UK, where he was reporting on Tommy's political campaign, as well as his trial, where he's being retried for contempt of court.
00:01:35.000I think the worst thing that's ever happened is they had some lawyer who was swearing at the judge, saying, like calling him a cunt or something.
00:01:45.000And he was eventually charged with like a $1,000 fine that he refused to pay.
00:05:13.000Because generally, specifically Caribbean gentlemen tend to be more interested in those who are gifted in the posterior region than, say, other cultures, say Nordic cultures or Asian cultures.
00:05:30.000They tend to be less, have less of a voracious appetite for the big-boned, the curvy mamas.
00:07:41.000Now, to be clear, what happened with me and the Proud Boys, and I thought I made it clear in a 40-minute video, but I ran into someone recently who said, did you leave them because they're racist now and it was getting out of hand?
00:07:54.000Or because there was too much heat on you and you live in the suburbs?
00:10:57.000I find it frustrating dealing with them occasionally, not that I associate with them, FBI, because their spelling and grammar is so shockingly bad because they are blue-collar types.
00:11:11.000And the other thing that annoys me about the talk of Proud Boys is they say, oh, they're known for spreading misogynistic, Islamophobic, blah, blah, blah, rhetoric.
00:11:22.000How are they known for spreading this?
00:12:41.000And you can tell when you see Enrique talk that this is a guy who's busted his ass his whole life and doesn't do these kind of speeches on a regular basis.
00:12:51.000Yet they're known for spreading fascism.
00:12:55.000Sorry, I forgot to mention the reason I'm wearing this college shirt is a shout out to John Belushi, Bluto, in Animal House.
00:13:06.000find this picture of Bluto wearing the college shirt.
00:13:09.000This was his nom de plume, I was going to say.
00:13:12.000This is what he wore in the movie Animal House.
00:13:15.000And the reason I chose Louie Louie and I wore this shirt is to say that we are the new Animal House.
00:16:21.000I almost don't want to meet them because they're so special.
00:16:24.000I imagine a Rick Rubin type character, but who's black and who has a 10-foot taxidermy polar bear in his office and is just like an incredible human being that hates fame and doesn't want to be known for his masterpieces.
00:20:03.000I guess because Britain is a, Canada is a Commonwealth of Britain, and as Ezra put it, Britain is his dystopian time machine where he can see what Canada and America will be like in five years.
00:20:16.000Here's the deal with Tommy Robinson, I'd like to explain to everyone.
00:20:22.000He's not a bigot, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:20:23.000The way he's being portrayed is, I don't want no Muslims coming in my country.
00:20:28.000There is radical Islamicization going on in Britain.
00:20:32.000They have a massive problem with gangs, with acid attacks, with stabbings, and more importantly, with these grooming gangs where Pakistani Muslim criminals are grooming young girls and raping hundreds of them.
00:20:48.000So it's not like there's a group that you have a problem with for no reason.
00:20:54.000There is a group that has a disproportionate radical contingent within it, and that radical contingent is threatening the entire British culture forever.
00:21:05.000This isn't, I don't know what Mexicans, or what are these wolves doing in my country, I don't like them.
00:21:10.000That's how they're being portrayed, and it's not even close to true.
00:22:12.000We'll ask him about that when we get him on.
00:22:14.000But just to keep you up to date, he filmed people, filmed pedophiles.
00:22:22.000These are guys who had been about to be convicted.
00:22:24.000Their sentence was already, the jury had already deliberated, and they were about to give the sentence to these Pakistani Muslim child rapists.
00:23:27.000If someone had raped a bunch of kids, if a white guy had raped a bunch of kids, they'd all be screaming and yelling, look at what they do to Roger Stone.
00:25:00.000And you'll see a lot of this, especially from the independent, just bitchy little tattletale journalists who don't really care about Tommy or the trial.
00:25:08.000They just care about someone being bad.
00:26:18.000About a third of the way through this short trial, he sees the judge get a paper and look at each other, and then all the judges run out of the room.
00:26:27.000And Ezra has a hunch that it's about him.
00:27:30.000And totally separately, the political campaign he's running has been an absolute madhouse with mobs of Muslims and Antifa showing up, attacking people.
00:27:41.000They started a new trend, thanks to Tommy, called Milkshaking.
00:27:45.000Some Muslim kid threw a milkshake on Tommy.
00:28:01.000They love punch a Nazi or whatever by hitting someone in the back of the head when they're not looking or pepper spraying their face or hitting them with a bike lock.
00:28:11.000But it's just a mob of upper-class imbeciles screaming racism at someone who's trying to save their country.
00:28:20.000And Ezra has been on the front lines of this entire thing.
00:28:23.000We'll get Tommy too, but he's not an easy guy to get a hold of.
00:28:26.000And we'll ask him some of these questions.
00:28:56.000And then in the new trial, which is equally ridiculous, you dared to live tweet, and they tattled him and shut down the proceedings while they investigated.
00:29:32.000Because I like to live tweet the proceedings because you're not allowed to take a camera into court, but you can tweet up a storm, and I do.
00:29:39.000So I was doing that for, I mean, I've done that so many times, and there I am in the old Bailey, straining to hear the case being made by the Attorney General, who wants to prosecute Tommy again for contempt of court again, even though he was already wrongfully convicted and wrongfully imprisoned.
00:31:11.000But so the judges, I said to the clerk, well, please go and tell the judges that I'm happy to present in their private chambers and explain myself.
00:31:19.000But I did get permission from this person and this person and this person and this person.
00:31:25.000And I have no desire to be disruptive at all.
00:31:28.000So I'm happy to appear before them in private chambers.
00:31:30.000I'm not looking to make a fuss to explain myself.
00:31:32.000And the clerk said, okay, I'll go tell them.
00:31:34.000So the clerk went back, met with the judge, and came back and said, it's all right, don't worry about it.
00:31:38.000And so the two judges came back out and said, you know, we had a note about live tweeting.
00:31:58.000I thought, first of all, instead of paying attention to the substance of the trial, these media party journalists were looking on their phones at me and getting really mad that I was on a different narrative than them.
00:32:38.000But what was the fire they wanted, and what was the fire hose they wanted?
00:32:42.000By bringing this to the judge's attention in such a bizarre and interruptive way, they could only mean one thing: they wanted me to be held in contempt of court and perhaps imprisoned like Tommy was.
00:32:55.000And this was being done by so-called journalists.
00:32:58.000Their chief mission in court that day was certainly not to report on the facts and not even to debate me if they so chose, but to have me thrown in prison.
00:33:11.000That's what you're saying when you're telling a judge in the middle, hey, teacher, he's tweeting, except for it's not a teacher, it's a judge, and the remedy is not a ruler hitting your knuckles.
00:33:49.000I thought there's no way that's possible.
00:33:51.000So I said, I could stand to lose 40 pounds in prison like Tommy did because he was starved in prison.
00:33:57.000Of course, you don't want to lose 40 pounds by starvation.
00:33:59.000So I was joking with Tommy and John, his lawyer, and then I thought, oh my God, I'm joking.
00:34:05.000But that's probably just what happened.
00:34:06.000And then I went to the clerk, and that's what happened.
00:34:09.000So I was literally joking how absurd it would be until I realized, no, I'm saying something that in North America sounds like a joke, but in the United Kingdom, 2019, that is exactly what's happening.
00:34:21.000I had this crazy hunch that was more of vanity than clown world, and it was true.
00:34:26.000And even the joke about you losing 40 pounds, these journalists ultimately do want you to go to prison, and you would not be able to eat the food.
00:35:49.000The largest voting number in British history, 17.4 million Brits voted to Brexit.
00:35:55.000But for three years, the governing Conservatives, even though they held this referendum on leaving, they ragged the puck.
00:36:03.000And the UK was supposed to leave on March 29th, and they didn't.
00:36:08.000Imagine if Donald Trump won the election, but for three years, Barack Obama and Michelle Obama just refused to move out of the White House.
00:36:18.000And finally, when the day came when they said they would, they'd say, yeah, we're not going to go.
00:36:30.000It's that rage, if the results of that election were being annulled and voided.
00:36:36.000And so these MEP, Member of the European Parliament elections that are happening Thursday, May 23rd, those elections shouldn't even be happening because the UK is supposed to be out of this crazy parliament.
00:36:52.000But Tommy's saying, well, hell with it.
00:36:55.000If we're still in this joke of a parliament, I'm going to run.
00:36:59.000And I'm literally going to be a bull in the china shop and I'm going to send my message.
00:38:00.000So he would be one of eight MEPs from Northwest England who would be representing that region in this UN-style, global government-style European parliament in Brussels.
00:38:19.000No, he would probably have an apartment there, and that's where the parliament is, and he would have a staff and an office there, and he would have a staff and an office in Manchester, probably.
00:38:29.000It would be like a congressman in the United States.
00:38:32.000They have their home district office, and then they have their Washington, D.C. office.
00:39:26.000I mean, I appreciate the compliments, but we have a bit of a dividing line.
00:39:31.000I mean, we are sympathetic, but our journalist over there, we've sent, I mean, listen, listen, I'm not going to deny that we're big Tommy supporters, and I'm not going to pretend to deny it.
00:39:40.000I'm just saying that his election campaign has to be done carefully and by the books.
00:39:45.000So it means no donations from foreigners, so we can't crowdfund for him.
00:40:43.000And we did, as you know, last year, we crowdfunded his legal defense.
00:40:47.000And I believe that if he were not released from prison after 10 weeks when he was in solitary confinement, we were joking earlier about him losing 40 pounds in prison.
00:41:12.000He was not allowed to go to the gym or to church or anything like that.
00:41:15.000And for that half hour a day he was released, he had to run around like a hamster in a hamster wheel in a cage that all the other prisoners were screaming epithets at him.
00:41:25.000So 23 and a half hours he's in silence in a box.
00:41:29.000And then half an hour a day, he's shouted at by people wishing death on him.
00:41:34.000That's what he was, I mean, anyone else in the world, that would be a major human rights violation.
00:41:56.000He was outside the court saying the names of the accused, just giving his political commentary.
00:42:02.000He was swooped up and imprisoned for that.
00:42:05.000By the way, that's what this trial at the old Bailey was last week.
00:42:09.000And he has to go back to court on July 4th, believe it or not, for another hearing about causing anxiety to those rapists because he asked them as they were walking into prison, sorry, walking into court, he said, how do you feel about the court case?
00:42:46.000The United Kingdom is so far gone, my friend.
00:42:49.000I would just say to all your listeners, if you haven't been to London in a while, make a vacation.
00:42:54.000Even if your kids are young, take them there.
00:42:56.000Have them see Big Ben Parliament, London Bridge, Trafalgar Square.
00:43:02.000See those things before they're, you know, accidentally torched like the Notre Dame Cathedral.
00:43:08.000See those things before they're blown up.
00:43:10.000I predict that within 10 years, one of the edifices I just listed will be destroyed by a terrorist attack.
00:43:17.000It wouldn't surprise me if it was a Churchill statue or Admiral Nelson, but see London now because it's not going to be the same in five, 10 years.
00:43:25.000I think you could say the same thing about Europe in general.
00:43:28.000Ezra, thanks very much for coming on the show.
00:45:02.000And secretary's fantasies are men just fawning all over them and them going, yeah, whatever, shit for brains.
00:45:10.000So I couldn't transpose the video, but I did take pictures of my television.
00:45:15.000And I want to show you, this is just six minutes of the show before I had to turn it off in a rage.
00:45:21.000This is what people are watching these days.
00:45:24.000Okay, so this guy, and if you're familiar with the show, forgive me, this guy is obsessed with her, and by the way, she's a solid 5.9, and she's a midget too, and she's old, right?
00:48:13.000And on this axe throwing date, after she throws that, she walks up to him and takes his beer out of his hand, you know, as women do, and starts swigging it.
00:50:20.000It's about you ramming down this one archetype, this kick-ass broad, just down our necks again and again, making fake women that we've never met and making them into a normal part of modern society.
00:50:34.000There's not these interracial lesbians running big finance firms.
00:50:37.000They're not using men for sex and laughing in their faces.
