00:00:00.000 And now for the adventures of the white privilege boy.
00:00:21.000 Bye.
00:00:22.000 Bye!
00:00:26.000 Ah, hey there, boys.
00:00:26.000 Good to see you again.
00:00:27.000 What can I do you for?
00:00:28.000 Thanks, Mr. MacArthur.
00:00:30.000 Well, you can start by giving us everything in the cash register.
00:00:34.000 Well, golly, is that a firearm you're pointing at me there?
00:00:37.000 Yeah.
00:00:38.000 I'm very disappointed in you boys.
00:00:40.000 We don't care.
00:00:41.000 Empty it out.
00:00:43.000 Oh, I suppose boys will be boys.
00:00:45.000 I'm going to have to call the sheriff, you know, but you've got me for now.
00:00:48.000 Go ahead, take everything.
00:00:50.000 Thanks!
00:00:50.000 Thanks, Mr. MacArthur!
00:00:51.000 Pistol whip him!
00:00:52.000 Oh, all right, now, that's one for you.
00:00:54.000 That's one for you.
00:00:55.000 Go ahead, take some bazooka, Joe, and get out of here, you rascals.
00:00:58.000 Oh, those boys.
00:01:00.000 What pickle will they find themselves in next?
00:01:03.000 Stay tuned for next week's installment of Adventures of the White Privilege Boys.
00:01:50.000 They are.
00:01:51.000 Yeah.
00:01:51.000 They get the light, the flame, and they're good.
00:01:52.000 We figure since we're working now, since we're technically a part of the media, that we should also propagandize you.
00:02:00.000 So we have Senator Ted Cruz on the show today.
00:02:03.000 Ted Cruz on the show is going to be talking about what's been going on with GoFundMe and the Freedom Convoy in Canada and what these states are going to be doing to hopefully help us avoid a communist hellscape.
00:02:21.000 And also, we'll be talking about China.
00:02:23.000 Look, Gerald and I disagreed about this where I don't think the United States should even be participating in the Communist Chinese Olympics.
00:02:29.000 Gerald thinks we should.
00:02:30.000 I understand the idea of engaging, but...
00:02:33.000 This is a little bit different, for example, in World War II, because right now we have a complicit United States media and corporations who are actively doing the bidding of the Communist Chinese Party.
00:02:42.000 And so I think that's a different problem than sending a Jesse Owens.
00:02:45.000 That's a different problem than having Joe Louis beat a Max Schmeling.
00:02:48.000 I think we're at a different point in history and we need to look.
00:02:51.000 We could crush China right now, and I mean the Communist Chinese Party, in order to help liberate the Chinese people.
00:02:55.000 And instead, you know, The Rock, John Cena, Coca-Cola, the United States government were being complicit.
00:03:01.000 Yes, the WNBA as well.
00:03:03.000 No, they don't want them.
00:03:06.000 Oh, send them back!
00:03:08.000 How many weaves do you need?
00:03:11.000 You know what?
00:03:12.000 Comment below.
00:03:12.000 Before we get to anything else, comment below.
00:03:14.000 Should we even be taking part in these Olympics?
00:03:16.000 And we'll get to some of the propaganda that's been taking place, and NBC has been carrying the water, along with Joe Biden, not knowing anything about weapons of war, he calls them.
00:03:27.000 The base.
00:03:28.000 So we'll have a lot to get to.
00:03:29.000 And as you know, stuff has been going on with Spotify, with Joe Rogan, and before that, YouTube.
00:03:33.000 So if this show is not on YouTube, for some reason, especially when we talk about China today, we're no longer on YouTube.
00:03:40.000 It's Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.
00:03:42.000 Eastern.
00:03:43.000 10 a.m.
00:03:43.000 Eastern.
00:03:43.000 You can watch it on Rumble.
00:03:45.000 You can subscribe at Mug Club.
00:03:46.000 We have another full hour of show.

00:04:00.000 Nine!
00:04:00.000 I'm gonna take a breath.

00:04:06.000 It does.
00:04:06.000 It really does.
00:04:07.000 It's cathartic.
00:04:07.000 It's helpful.
00:04:08.000 Sometimes it feels good to hit the dislike button, but you can't do that anymore.
00:04:10.000 Not anymore.
00:04:11.000 How are you, sir?
00:04:12.000 I'm okay!
00:04:12.000 You're okay?
00:04:13.000 I'm okay.
00:04:13.000 Didn't sleep, that's okay.
00:04:14.000 Ah.
00:04:15.000 I go through like I sleep really well, and then I'm like, my body says, that's enough sleep for two days.
00:04:19.000 Was a clown gonna get you again?
00:04:20.000 Yeah.
00:04:21.000 Yeah.
00:04:21.000 Clowns are fun.
00:04:22.000 Then of course you can't do it.
00:04:23.000 I don't know why we have clowns with children.
00:04:24.000 And when people act like it's an irrational fear.
00:04:26.000 It is a giant, scary, disproportional beast with colors that in nature signifies aggression.
00:04:33.000 When have you ever seen an animal with bright red, bright yellow, that's usually when they lift their claws or their belly to say, this is poisonous, and we send that into a children's party.
00:04:40.000 Clown.
00:04:41.000 The point is, I would like to see a clown genocide.
00:04:43.000 And he is here.
00:04:45.000 You love him.
00:04:46.000 In China.
00:04:46.000 No clowns matter.
00:04:48.000 I'll be on tour with him!
00:04:49.000 We just added a show, April 16th, a second show added in, well, Detroit, Royal Oak, Michigan, the Royal Oak Theater, right around Detroit, and now tickets are on sale June 18th in Pikes Peak, Colorado, lateralcounter.com slash tour.
00:05:02.000 Dave Landau, how are you?
00:05:03.000 Ahoy, I was good until, you do know that I'm the president of the Clown Defamation League?
00:05:09.000 Ah, right, but it's more of a Piero, it's more of an artistic clown.
00:05:12.000 Well, yeah.
00:05:13.000 It's a clown who has three acts.
00:05:15.000 Correct.
00:05:15.000 Yeah, and no one laughs because that would be... Well, no, it's definitely showmanship.
00:05:20.000 Yes, it's a little bit of showmanship.
00:05:22.000 It's not terrorizing children.
00:05:24.000 No.
00:05:25.000 People think we do, but we don't.
00:05:27.000 No, no.
00:05:27.000 I do.
00:05:28.000 Right.
00:05:29.000 But not everyone.
00:05:30.000 Right.
00:05:31.000 Once you have them sign the release form, you kind of know what you're in for.
00:05:37.000 You signed up for this.
00:05:37.000 You're like, I didn't know that was what I was signing.
00:05:39.000 Hey, speaking of signing, we signed on, of course, to Corporate Overlords.
00:05:44.000 We have no choice to promote Black History Month here at Lauderworth Crowder.
00:05:47.000 We got his black history book.
00:05:53.000 Boom!
00:05:54.000 Alright, so jumping off with the first Black History Month fact, we want to bring new information to you guys.
00:05:59.000 In 1975, Lee Elder was the first African-American to play in the Masters.
00:06:03.000 And then Larry Elder was hit with a banana pie.
00:06:05.000 Well, by a gorilla suit person.
00:06:07.000 Yes.
00:06:08.000 Yeah, that's not... No, it's not racist.
00:06:10.000 Not at all.
00:06:10.000 Alright, another Black History Month fact there, Dave.
00:06:13.000 In 1983, Guyon... just pick a name, it's normal.
00:06:18.000 In 1983, Gwion S. Bluford became the first black American to go into space.
00:06:24.000 Wow!
00:06:26.000 But we knew it wouldn't be deep-sea diving.
00:06:27.000 Well, no.
00:06:29.000 In 2017, Timothy Jacksonite was recorded as the first black father to actually return home after going to the store for cigarettes.
00:06:38.000 So that's nice progress, yeah.
00:06:39.000 This has been Loud Earth Crackers Black History Month!
00:06:45.000 There you go.
00:06:47.000 Before we move on here to the Second Amendment issue that Joe Biden just Okay.
00:06:55.000 You guys can go and, well, you can't search, but if you go to lateralthecrider.com, search Stephen Crider's Second Amendment, you will see this argument that Joe Biden brings up is one of the most rudimentary arguments that you've heard.
00:07:05.000 You probably heard it in, you know, Philosophy Class 101.
00:07:09.000 And he's still using it, kind of like the 77 cents on the dollar for, you know, for women when they talk about women's rights, women in the workplace.
00:07:15.000 So we'll get to it.
00:07:17.000 I know it seems remedial, but it just, he gave us a layup.
00:07:19.000 But before that, speaking of layups, Did you see this, the recent Colbert?
00:07:24.000 I have not.
00:07:25.000 I'm excited, though.
00:07:26.000 Yeah, so Colbert... I'm sure you are.
00:07:28.000 Yeah, I've... Stephen Colbert put out this sketch yesterday.
00:07:34.000 And I don't want to say low-hanging fruit, but... I mean, Stephen Colbert, low-hanging fruit, I repeat myself.
00:07:41.000 You mean his writing stuff?
00:07:42.000 Yes.
00:07:45.000 Those are highbush fruits.
00:07:47.000 Yeah.
00:07:47.000 Oh, jeez.
00:07:48.000 It's the wild variety.
00:07:49.000 And we're cancelled.
00:07:51.000 A sketch mocking Taking a risk.
00:07:54.000 Huh?
00:07:55.000 Rudy Giuliani.
00:07:55.000 Here you go.
00:07:56.000 If you liked Rudy Giuliani on The Masked Singer, you'll love him on Naked and Seditious, Traitor Island.
00:08:03.000 A nude Giuliani, thrown to an uninhabited island.
00:08:07.000 And then, we leave him there.
00:08:10.000 That's it.
00:08:11.000 That's the show.
00:08:12.000 What will happen?
00:08:13.000 Will he succumb to the elements?
00:08:15.000 Or end up covered in poisonous snakes, desperately crying out to God to end his suffering?
00:08:20.000 Will a wild boar take an amorous interest?
00:08:23.000 Don't know, don't care.
00:08:25.000 In fact, we're not even sending cameras because this isn't actually a show.
00:08:28.000 Just something we did and thought you might enjoy.
00:08:31.000 No food, no shelter, no wine.
00:08:35.000 Naked and Seditious, Trader Island.
00:08:37.000 And coming soon to Fox, the floor is actual lava.
00:08:41.000 Starring Ted Cruz.
00:08:42.000 Wow.
00:08:45.000 Well, they did it.
00:08:46.000 Hey, you know what?
00:08:47.000 By the way, I don't know if we can, thank you guys there in our edit bay
00:08:51.000 for so much less money doing better jobs at the Photoshop and sketches.
00:08:55.000 And far fewer people.
00:08:56.000 Far, far fewer people.
00:08:58.000 By the way, was that a death threat?
00:08:59.000 That was just saying, well, kill Rudy Giuliani.
00:09:01.000 And I don't care.
00:09:02.000 I get that it's a joke.
00:09:03.000 But keep in mind, they went after Sarah Palin for having a map that had targets saying these are the districts to target.
00:09:08.000 They went after Marjorie Taylor Greene.
00:09:09.000 They've gone after yours truly, claiming that these are death threats when we have joked, you know, for example, about, I don't know, maybe it might have been like throwing Kamala Harris out a plate glass window, which of course I would never do.
00:09:18.000 Right.
00:09:19.000 It's just a joke.
00:09:19.000 No, no, no, no, no.
00:09:20.000 But that's all that was.
00:09:21.000 Yeah.
00:09:22.000 Is there no warning there?
00:09:24.000 Is there a mediate?
00:09:25.000 Misinformation, nothing at all.
00:09:26.000 Has he been charged with sedition by the way?
00:09:28.000 I was just curious.
00:09:29.000 I just wanted to make sure the seditious thing that they're putting on there saying that he is a traitor and that he has basically tried to overthrow the United States government instead of challenge the legitimacy of an election that was fully fair in history that we've ever seen.
00:09:43.000 I believe Rudy Giuliani said that.
00:09:44.000 It was the safest and most fair election in history despite the fact that people were You know, there were so many cocks in the ballot boxes.
00:09:52.000 Well, Mr. Giuliani, your face is running down.
00:09:54.000 We can see actual hair dye.
00:09:56.000 Well, that's just for me.
00:09:59.000 Well, that's a weird look.
00:10:00.000 What did you think about the Colbert?
00:10:02.000 Oh, I think it's brilliant writing.
00:10:05.000 What do you have, a staff of 50 on that?
00:10:08.000 Are we having a guest on later who was just lit on fire on that show?
00:10:12.000 Well, look, if the floor is lava, you're supposed to not be on the floor anymore.
00:10:15.000 That's the whole point of the game.
00:10:16.000 That's true.
00:10:17.000 That just needs to be quicker.
00:10:18.000 Watch, their next sketch is going to be why we need to do it with a filibuster.
00:10:25.000 We don't like the filibuster.
00:10:27.000 We shouldn't have it.
00:10:28.000 And then Colbert comes back.
00:10:29.000 Hey, applause sign.
00:10:30.000 Naked and Afraid, the Supreme Court Edition.
00:10:32.000 Have you seen the Dancing Pfizer Needles?
00:10:36.000 Five more Emmys.
00:10:37.000 We'll bring them back.
00:10:38.000 How many writers does it take to just come up with the worst sketch and horrible Photoshop?
00:10:44.000 Well, when they're unqualified diversity hires, it's a little bit more time.
00:10:47.000 Yeah, that's true.
00:10:48.000 Who's the head writer who's like, that's really good writing?
00:10:51.000 Well, I don't think the head writer speaks English.
00:10:53.000 It was a stand-in for the pirate from Captain Phillips.
00:10:56.000 No, he was selling hot dogs outside of the building where they filmed that show.
00:11:00.000 Where are you from?
00:11:01.000 Oh, Mozambique.
00:11:02.000 Have you ever thought about writing comedy?
00:11:05.000 You're a funny guy.
00:11:06.000 Good for you.
00:11:06.000 You seem qualified.
00:11:07.000 Are you androgynous?
00:11:09.000 Are you genderqueer?
00:11:10.000 Even better.
00:11:10.000 You could be a senior writing person.
00:11:12.000 No, no Pakistanis work for us.
00:11:14.000 I don't know what your problem with them is, but you're welcome in.
00:11:17.000 You're right.
00:11:19.000 Come on in here.
00:11:19.000 We'll give you a job.
00:11:21.000 In 2015, The Atlantic wrote this, Stephen Colbert's writing staff, 17 men, 2 women, and all 19 of the late show's writers are white.
00:11:27.000 So... Ah, no wonder they suck.
00:11:29.000 Well, that changed.
00:11:30.000 Yeah, definitely changed.
00:11:33.000 That was 2015.
00:11:33.000 Go by the humor.
00:11:35.000 Do you know, do you know, look, do you know why it's not that women are incapable of being funny?
00:11:39.000 Let me just address this argument off the bat.
00:11:41.000 There are some really funny female comics.
00:11:43.000 Kathleen Madigan, one of my favorite of all time.
00:11:45.000 Joan Rivers, you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone who says that she isn't funny.
00:11:49.000 Men have to be funny, right?
00:11:50.000 That's how men interact with each other.
00:11:52.000 If you hang around men, you will see that they interact very differently than women.
00:11:55.000 And if you go to an open mic, more men are obviously applying to an open mic locally.
00:12:00.000 So let's say there's 10 slots in an open mic.
00:12:02.000 What they now say is, look, there are 10 slots and 8 of them are men and 2 of them are women.
00:12:06.000 Yeah, but there maybe were 40 people who applied and 35 of them were men.
00:12:11.000 And when you say they have to be five and five, guess what?
00:12:13.000 You're drawing from a shallower talent pool just like affirmative action, just like quotas when you're talking about university, and women who shouldn't make it to the top get to the top.
00:12:21.000 It's not their fault when you watch all these female comedians that they're unfunny.
00:12:24.000 It's like a kid who's never been spanked.
00:12:26.000 Yeah.
00:12:26.000 Well, this is how we get women.
00:12:28.000 We have to be funny for them to like us because we're smelly brutes.
00:12:31.000 Yes.
00:12:32.000 22 writers on Stephen Colbert's writing staff.
00:12:35.000 This is from 2020, and here's the head writer.
00:12:38.000 Is it Howard Stern?
00:12:39.000 Ariel Dumas.
00:12:40.000 Ariel Dumbass?
00:12:41.000 Ariel Dumbass.
00:12:42.000 Oh, Dumass!
00:12:42.000 Sorry, sorry, Dumass.
00:12:43.000 Alright, well we'll do a little bit of research and I bet you her tweets are pithy.
00:12:46.000 Oh, I bet.
00:12:47.000 I bet you they have an agenda behind them.
00:12:49.000 Yeah, I can't imagine.
00:12:51.000 Maybe.
00:12:51.000 And that agenda is comedy.
00:12:53.000 Me thinks there's a pussy hat somewhere in her timeline.
00:12:55.000 Oh, I bet.
00:12:56.000 Resist!
00:12:57.000 Is there an applause sign on Twitter as well?
00:12:59.000 I wish we had an applause sign.
00:13:00.000 I'd feel better about it right now.
00:13:01.000 Yeah, I just hated that.
00:13:03.000 I don't know, what else do you say to it?
00:13:05.000 Well, um... You said all you could say, Dan.
00:13:08.000 I'm trying to think of what else you could say.
00:13:10.000 It's really funny.
00:13:11.000 Let's kill him.
00:13:14.000 Let's throw Rudy Giuliani out of a helicopter and have him die in the woods.
00:13:19.000 Remember?
00:13:20.000 The 9-11 guy who made the city better?
00:13:23.000 Who also was Time's Person of the Year and was like, yeah, but so was Hitler!
00:13:26.000 Well, yeah, okay.
00:13:27.000 For different reasons.
00:13:29.000 Understand he was man of the year because he brought the whole country together.
00:13:32.000 Anyway, the point is it doesn't matter and safest, most secure election in history.
00:13:36.000 So let's move on to someone who does know what they're talking about.
00:13:37.000 Of course, not former Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
00:13:40.000 There is, of course, 40-year high inflation.
00:13:43.000 We have a decimated southern border.
00:13:45.000 We have this unbelievable power struggle with China.
00:13:47.000 But don't worry, the former Vice President Biden has a plan.
00:13:50.000 It brings us to this week in Biden.
00:13:52.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.
00:13:56.000 I don't want to get going because I keep you here too long because you know all I'm about to, what I've said, and you know what I've done, and you know what we're doing, and you know what I know what you're doing.
00:14:05.000 Let me close with this.
00:14:06.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.
00:14:11.000 Perfect.
00:14:13.000 Are they putting tongue twisters on his prompter?
00:14:15.000 I just think they give him a giant spoonful of peanut butter before they send him out there.
00:14:22.000 I was going to talk about international, but how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could?
00:14:30.000 Come on, you know, you know, you know the thing with the woodchuck.
00:14:33.000 They got those teeth.
00:14:34.000 Come on.
00:14:34.000 What are we doing?
00:14:35.000 Can I get just the medicines that cause dry mouth before I go out?
00:14:40.000 Promise.
00:14:41.000 All the medicines.
00:14:42.000 All of them make me shit my pants.
00:14:44.000 It's a lesser of evils at this point.
00:14:46.000 It's all evil.
00:14:47.000 I could keep you here all day if I knew what we were talking about.
00:14:50.000 If I could string a sentence together.
00:14:52.000 I love that he started with that.
00:14:53.000 You know that I know.
00:14:55.000 You know that they know that I know.
00:14:56.000 That we know and he knows.
00:14:58.000 They're saying that I'm a paranoid schizophrenic, but that's only because they know that I know that they know that I'm watching me.
00:15:04.000 Sometimes when I'm in the bathroom, and I run out of the toilet paper, I like to pretend that I'm like a captain out on the ocean.
00:15:13.000 Yeah.
00:15:13.000 With the toilet paper roll.
00:15:14.000 Yeah.
00:15:15.000 And I look out and I see someone I say, is that a siren?
00:15:19.000 I can't resist.
00:15:19.000 I can't resist the sound.
00:15:21.000 Joe Louis.
00:15:22.000 Joe Louis just doesn't like it.
00:15:23.000 Kamala's watching me!
00:15:26.000 Alright, Joe Louis.
00:15:27.000 Joe Louis plays.
00:15:27.000 Hold on one second.
00:15:28.000 This is a disaster.
00:15:30.000 Oh no.
00:15:30.000 He doesn't like it ever since we played with Nerf guns.
00:15:33.000 No, he doesn't.
00:15:34.000 Well, the moment that we acted like you were like, fine, leave.
00:15:36.000 He's like, well, I guess I'll stay.
00:15:37.000 Yeah, he's playing hard to get.
00:15:38.000 He is.
00:15:39.000 All right, so speaking of nerf guns, last week Joe Biden traveled to New York City to speak about, well, you would think he'd be speaking about, you know, the rapidly rising crime rates, of course.
00:15:49.000 Oh, I thought it was a snap pic.
00:15:51.000 Well, police members, sorry, I don't want to say policemen, police Z's leaving the force in record numbers, leaving their citizens exposed, which, by the way, you're not supposed to have a gun because you're supposed to call the police, but they're racist.
00:16:01.000 The point is, if you're trying to make sense of it, it doesn't make sense.
00:16:03.000 He was supposed to talk about violence, and instead he talked about, specifically, gun violence and the Second Amendment, and he said something so asinine, we'll see if you can catch it.
00:16:14.000 For any of the press, any of the press listening, this doesn't violate anybody's Second Amendment right.
00:16:20.000 Okay.
00:16:20.000 There's no violation of a Second Amendment right.
00:16:23.000 We talk like there's no amendment that's absolute.
00:16:26.000 When the amendment was passed, it didn't say anybody can own a gun and any kind of gun and any kind of weapon.
00:16:32.000 You couldn't buy a cannon when this amendment was passed.
00:16:38.000 There's no reason why you should be able to buy certain assault weapons.
00:16:41.000 But that's another issue.
00:16:42.000 Okay, first off, Joe Biden, this is how we feel.
00:16:47.000 Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
00:16:52.000 God have mercy on your soul.
00:16:53.000 Now, I want you to comment below.
00:16:55.000 Can you see where he literally used in his argument what would already be the counter argument?
00:17:01.000 Before I present it to you, if you're familiar with me having discussed this topic, You got it?
00:17:08.000 He brought up cannons.
00:17:09.000 Look, he says, it didn't say that you could have cannons.
00:17:12.000 That's actually exactly what the Second Amendment says.
00:17:16.000 Not only is it exactly what the Second Amendment says, it was reinforced where there was a question sent to James Madison.
00:17:22.000 I don't know if you remember James Madison, one of the creators of that whole bill.
00:17:26.000 They said, hey, you know, we're dealing with some pirates and stuff.
00:17:28.000 Can we have cannons?
00:17:29.000 And it was like, shit, yeah, you can have cannons.
00:17:32.000 Let me read you this.
00:17:33.000 Yeah, we pretty much have two firearms, muskets and cannons.
00:17:37.000 Right.
00:17:37.000 There's more than that, but the point is, he's trying to say he couldn't have cannons.
00:17:40.000 Look, there's a letter of Mark 1812.
00:17:43.000 James Madison gave permission to a privately owned ship to have mounted cannons.
00:17:47.000 It says, I have commissioned the private armed brig called the Prince Nephew This is the same guy who wrote the Bill of Rights.
00:17:52.000 He was asked, can we have cannons?
00:17:54.000 authorizing Nicholas Millen of the said brig to subdue seas and take any armed
00:17:58.000 or unarmed British vessel public or private which shall be found within the
00:18:01.000 jurisdiction, jurisdictional limits of the United States.
00:18:04.000 This is the same guy who wrote the Bill of Rights. He was asked can we have
00:18:08.000 cannons? The guy, James Madison if you read the actual letter all references
00:18:11.000 available at ladderwithcowder.com was almost confused. Kind of like
00:18:15.000 sometimes when we get questions in chat and it's like so Stephen do you uh do you
00:18:20.000 like uh you know do you like ice cream?
00:18:21.000 Well, yeah!
00:18:22.000 Like, you don't already know!
00:18:22.000 Why are you wasting my time with this question?
00:18:24.000 James Madison was sitting there like, can we have cannon?
00:18:25.000 She's like, why are you, what, did you read it?
00:18:28.000 Did you read it?
00:18:29.000 Of course you can have cannons.
00:18:30.000 Second Amendment.
00:18:31.000 Why would you not be able to have cannons, dummy?
00:18:33.000 That was the letter that he wrote.
00:18:34.000 I love it.
00:18:35.000 I love it.
00:18:35.000 What are you going to do?
00:18:36.000 Go out and take a British ship with a musket?
00:18:38.000 You're going to shoot the wood and it bounces off?
00:18:40.000 Hey guys, stop!
00:18:42.000 There were other weapons too you're talking about.
00:18:44.000 There was the puckle gun.
00:18:45.000 There was a Girandoni air rifle.
00:18:46.000 There was the pepper box.
00:18:47.000 Revolver the belt and flintlock these were all around the founding fathers knew about them.
00:18:52.000 They certainly knew about cannons That was the most powerful weapon that you could really have back then and they said of course you can have cannons which actually if you're talking about Expanding that right if you're talking about changing the scope.
00:19:03.000 How do you apply it today?
00:19:04.000 Okay?
00:19:04.000 What would be the equivalent today of cannons at least tanks so my point is for you to think that it only applies to To an old lever action or pump action shotgun, which, by the way, is also something that should be banned, according to former Vice President Joe Biden.
00:19:17.000 He just doesn't realize that he said it.
00:19:19.000 Of course, cannons!
00:19:21.000 Yes!
00:19:22.000 It was a letter of exasperation from James Madison, like, don't waste my time.
00:19:25.000 Yes, yes, you can have cannons.
00:19:26.000 Well, and I have an idea.
00:19:28.000 Joe Biden, you said that no amendment, I guess, can't be changed or whatever you said.
00:19:31.000 Yeah, there's a process for that.
00:19:33.000 And it's not going through Congress.
00:19:34.000 It's going through the states.
00:19:36.000 So if you really feel like the Second Amendment should be taken out, why don't you go through the process?
00:19:40.000 Yeah.
00:19:41.000 That's not what you're doing.
00:19:42.000 That's because he fell asleep halfway through your explanation.
00:19:44.000 Well, he's like... I can't be expected to listen to all these phrases.
00:19:47.000 I don't know what to do.
00:19:48.000 I'm not retired.
00:19:49.000 Don't get me going.
00:19:50.000 Even though I'm 92.
00:19:50.000 To sleep.
00:19:52.000 A man who should be well past retirement and social security age, who's never worked in the private sector, running the entire country.
00:19:58.000 Who could possibly have foreseen this going badly?
00:20:01.000 Now, here's him also using his anti-gun rhetoric when discussing an NYPD officer.
00:20:07.000 And here's the thing.
00:20:07.000 Listen to what he says.
00:20:08.000 This just shows you how little these people know.
00:20:10.000 Now, you should have been able to understand that Joe Biden knows nothing about firearms when he told his wife to just take a double-barreled shotgun and fire it into the air.
00:20:16.000 A crime!
00:20:17.000 Illegally.
00:20:19.000 I tell my wife she needs to protect her home.
00:20:21.000 Go commit a felony.
00:20:21.000 Why did that happen?
00:20:22.000 Were they at a ghetto picnic?
00:20:24.000 Yeah, effectively.
00:20:24.000 I don't know.
00:20:25.000 It was a gender reveal party.
00:20:26.000 They had a barbecue?
00:20:28.000 So this is what he said when discussing an NYPD officer who was shot.
00:20:31.000 See if you can spot just how dumb he is in a specific instance.
00:20:36.000 It's really a weapon of war.
00:20:38.000 One of the things I was proudest of years ago when I was in the Senate, I was able to get these weapons and magazines outlawed.
00:20:47.000 That got changed.
00:20:49.000 You got overruled, but I don't see any rationale why there should be such a weapon able to be purchased.
00:20:56.000 It doesn't violate anybody's Second Amendment rights to deny that.
00:21:01.000 But anyway, their futures were cut short by a man with a stolen Glock.
00:21:07.000 Yes, a weapon of war is the most popular sidearm in the country, a Glock.
00:21:14.000 I think he said Glocken.
00:21:16.000 He said Glocken.
00:21:17.000 I'm doing the German pronunciation.
00:21:18.000 And he said 40 round.
00:21:22.000 There was a drum magazine in that block.
00:21:24.000 I believe you used the word stolen.
00:21:26.000 Yes.
00:21:27.000 Which means it wasn't properly acquired.
00:21:29.000 Yeah, it wasn't legal.
00:21:31.000 We gotta close this stealing loophole!
00:21:34.000 People shouldn't be allowed to steal!
00:21:35.000 Also, people shouldn't be allowed to throw their guns in a dumpster by a grade school like your son, asshole!
00:21:41.000 Well, let's not focus on that.
00:21:43.000 I thought it was a middle school.
00:21:44.000 Yeah, that was in middle school.
00:21:49.000 Let's not rehash the past.
00:21:50.000 Weapon of War.
00:21:52.000 A Glock.
00:21:53.000 A Glock, which is the most common handgun.
00:21:55.000 And by the way, it's just a semi-automatic handgun.
00:21:57.000 gun weapon of war which would I said hey guys yeah come get it I
00:22:04.000 I said no more weapons of war.
00:22:06.000 That's the Walther, very similar to the Glock.
00:22:07.000 No more weapons of war in the studios, guys.
00:22:09.000 We have to make sure that we don't want any weapons of war.
00:22:12.000 Gerald!
00:22:13.000 Gerald?
00:22:13.000 Yeah, Gerald.
00:22:14.000 No, I just, I want to, it's not a... Yeah, it's a, no, look, it's a Walther sidearm.
00:22:18.000 You can take Joe Louis with you there, good soldier.
00:22:21.000 How am I going to protect him?
00:22:22.000 No more weapons of war in this... Oh my god, oh my god, there's a weapon of war on me here!
00:22:26.000 Oh no!
00:22:31.000 I'm gonna keep that weapon of war.
00:22:32.000 Yeah.
00:22:34.000 It's not quite a cannon!
00:22:35.000 Did we cut my penis out of the montage?
00:22:39.000 Thank you.
00:22:40.000 It does have kind of a drum magazine.
00:22:42.000 It does.
00:22:42.000 It does have kind of a drum magazine.
00:22:44.000 It does.
00:22:45.000 The refractory period is insane.
00:22:46.000 I don't know if it's a good thing.
00:22:49.000 This is what you guys need to know.
00:22:51.000 He says, ah, you can't have cannons.
00:22:52.000 Yes, you absolutely can't have cannons.
00:22:53.000 There's a historical context for that.
00:22:54.000 Then he says, weapons of war, Glock, that's your gun.
00:22:57.000 That's almost every single pistol in the country.
00:22:59.000 Walther, Glock, HK, the most popular guns in the country, he's now considered weapons of war.
00:23:03.000 So when you next hear about the assault weapons ban, according to Joe Biden, former Vice President Joe Biden, a Glock is a weapon of war.
00:23:12.000 If that's a weapon of war, then everything is a weapon of war, and you're not entitled to a weapon of war.
00:23:15.000 The only people entitled to a weapon of war is the military, the FBI, of course, who we are beyond trustworthy, and the local police force, who are systemically racist.
00:23:25.000 Well, any weapon can be a weapon of war.
00:23:27.000 Right.
00:23:28.000 I've seen Chuck Norris use a chair.
00:23:30.000 I've seen Palestinians use rocks.
00:23:33.000 Steven Seagal uses his fists as weapons of war.
00:23:35.000 Actually, he uses open hands.
00:23:37.000 The chops.
00:23:37.000 Because if you use your fists, you can't do the fake slapping, right?
00:23:40.000 That's true.
00:23:41.000 It's like, ooh, he must be striking everything.
00:23:43.000 He's just hitting himself!
00:23:45.000 He's hitting his fat, meaty self!
00:23:48.000 At Golden Corral, his mouth is a weapon of war.
00:23:50.000 You're like, Stephen, just get more salad.
00:23:53.000 Stop doing that every time you go to the salad bar.
00:23:55.000 When I slap my tits, bad things happen.
00:23:58.000 What are we going to write?
00:23:59.000 I'll put extra rice on my plate.
00:24:01.000 Yes, because I was the first Caucasian to open up a dojo in Japan.
00:24:07.000 No, you married someone whose father had a dojo and retired, and then you married Kelly LeBrock while you were married to her, you piece of crap.
00:24:16.000 bigamist. So I've swollen purple feet. Yes. And nipples.
00:24:21.000 Now, he used the exact same language former Vice President Joe
00:24:24.000 Biden last year, when he called for banning again, weapons of war,
00:24:28.000 but he was called for calling for banning assault rifles.
00:24:31.000 Now, I know this has been a hobby horse of mine for a long time.
00:24:36.000 Got it done once.
00:24:39.000 We should also ban assault weapons and high-capacity magazines in this country.
00:24:43.000 There's no reason someone needs a weapon of war with 100 rounds, 100 bullets.
00:24:48.000 This has been a hoop and stick.
00:24:50.000 That can be fired from that weapon.
00:24:54.000 Okay, so first off, he said assault weapon.
00:24:56.000 Assault rifle is a term that's often used in the military, meaning like burst fire.
00:24:59.000 Assault weapon doesn't mean anything.
00:25:00.000 That's where you can put anything under that umbrella, like a Glock is a weapon of war.
00:25:03.000 Assault weapon is a made-up term.
00:25:05.000 This is legal.
00:25:06.000 Pistol grip is illegal.
00:25:07.000 We've been through this.
00:25:08.000 I know it's remedial, but it's just important to see The winds that are picking up here, okay?
00:25:13.000 Can you feel the winds changing?
00:25:14.000 This guy now thinks for some reason he's going to be able to push through some kind of anti-gun legislation.
00:25:18.000 It won't be done in a constitutional fashion because it's immensely unpopular.
00:25:21.000 So he needs to make sure that people who know nothing about firearms hear Glock go, oh my gosh, you mean that weapon of war?
00:25:26.000 Just don't be stupid.
00:25:27.000 Don't be silly.
00:25:28.000 The way that you convince people in your life, okay, because we try to be solution-oriented, I did a Change My Mind where we took people to the range, they fired Walthers, they fired shotguns.
00:25:35.000 Just take someone you know.
00:25:37.000 Who's never shot a firearm.
00:25:38.000 Take them to the range.
00:25:39.000 Have them fire a Walther.
00:25:40.000 If they have a Glock, have them fire a Glock.
00:25:42.000 Then explain to them, this is what the former vice president wants to ban as a weapon of war.
00:25:46.000 They'll go, oh!
00:25:47.000 Oh, now I know it's bullshit.
00:25:48.000 There you go.
00:25:50.000 Your wife can't protect herself because a handgun is no longer allowed.
00:25:53.000 Right.
00:25:54.000 Some other weapons of war, like you said, by the way, to include is the Beretta M9, the Mossberg 500 shotgun.
00:26:00.000 Just to be clear, that's a pump shotgun.
00:26:02.000 K-Bar knives and rocks.
00:26:05.000 These are weapons of war.
00:26:08.000 It's like, listen, come on, if you're just going to say weapon of war, anything, everything goes under that.
00:26:14.000 Anything you can use.
00:26:16.000 Yes.
00:26:17.000 An assault rifle is anything.
00:26:20.000 Just rob a liquor store with a rifle.
00:26:22.000 It's an assault rifle.
00:26:23.000 It's the dumbest argument that I've ever heard.
00:26:25.000 And I think Joe Biden is playing to his base a little bit here and he's trying, he's losing in so many areas.
00:26:29.000 He's like, well, I guess I'll go back to this.
00:26:31.000 Is Beto available to go out and be my czar?
00:26:34.000 Well, that's why he uses words and he doesn't show people because he wants You know, I don't think anyone's going to see someone out there harpoon fishing and think, you in the Navy?
00:26:41.000 No, they're not going to, because they know, okay, it's just a harpoon gun.
00:26:44.000 So he wants to tell you, they have these harpoon guns, they should only be with the village people.
00:26:49.000 Weapon of war, what are you doing?
00:26:50.000 Yeah, the best thing to use on this agenda is Biden's words.
00:26:54.000 Don't get him started though, Dave.
00:26:56.000 Don't get him going.
00:26:57.000 Weapon of war, where am I?
00:27:00.000 And that, and those luscious locks.
00:27:01.000 Did you notice that he tried to dye them blonde recently?
00:27:03.000 Yeah.
00:27:04.000 Like we would be able to tell.
00:27:05.000 It doesn't work.
00:27:06.000 He just shows up one day.
00:27:08.000 It's like, oh yeah, Joe Biden, he's always been blonde.
00:27:10.000 Yeah.
00:27:10.000 As I was saying.
00:27:11.000 Well, he's got a stutter.
00:27:12.000 That's the whole problem.
00:27:13.000 You can't make fun of him now.
00:27:14.000 It's a stutter.
00:27:15.000 Yeah, it's a stutter.
00:27:15.000 Yeah.
00:27:16.000 He's too old.
00:27:17.000 It has that look like a dog peed on him.
00:27:19.000 Yeah.
00:27:19.000 You know, like, it looks like a dog's crotch.
00:27:21.000 Yeah.
00:27:22.000 Yeah.
00:27:22.000 Like one of those dogs that doesn't, or like the eye goop.
00:27:24.000 Yeah.
00:27:25.000 Little Bichon dogs.
00:27:26.000 Yeah.
00:27:27.000 Yeah, like, you know, like an old dying man would have.
00:27:29.000 Yes, exactly.
00:27:30.000 Yeah.
00:27:31.000 Who's trying to trick you into thinking that he's not dying.
00:27:34.000 In other words, you're like, you know what?
00:27:35.000 I'm sorry, Mrs. Biden.
00:27:37.000 Your husband's probably not going to make it.
00:27:38.000 And then he's like, wait a second, get the dye.
00:27:40.000 He's like, I'm doing better.
00:27:41.000 I'm not dead yet.
00:27:43.000 I'm very fresh.
00:27:45.000 Here's a bunch of videos of me saying the N-word in perfect, horrible context.
00:27:49.000 I feel like I could take on the world.
00:27:51.000 Yeah.
00:27:52.000 By the way, next time they do a press conference, make sure Joe Biden isn't looking directly into the sun.
00:27:56.000 The squinting, barely able to see, is not a good look for him.
00:27:59.000 Just leave sunglasses on him.
00:28:01.000 Aviators all the time, like Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles.
00:28:06.000 Comes out in a bomber jacket.
00:28:07.000 Just put a piano in front of him and just have him blind piano the rest of his presidency.
00:28:13.000 What do you think he's doing now, Dave?
00:28:15.000 Well, that's true.
00:28:16.000 Have him read his speeches in Braille.
00:28:18.000 Yes.
00:28:19.000 I think if I get going, I love... Oh crap, that's a song!
00:28:23.000 Hey, by the way... That's what I say, get rid of us old rifles, that's what I say.
00:28:31.000 If you guys are watching right now on YouTube, of course, we're also available on Spotify still.
00:28:35.000 We're available on Android.
00:28:36.000 We're available on Apple.
00:28:37.000 So you guys can listen to the audio version.
00:28:39.000 And sometimes there's some Easter eggs in there that we don't necessarily have here on the show on YouTube and Rumble.
00:28:45.000 OK.
00:28:46.000 So it's time to get to the, you know, some people call them the Beijing Olympics.
00:28:52.000 I call them the Peking Genocide Olympics.
00:28:54.000 But it's whatever you want to call it.
00:28:56.000 It doesn't roll off the tongue quite.
00:28:58.000 Yeah.
00:28:58.000 When did they become the Beijing thing?
00:29:00.000 It's sort of like, is it Mumbai, Bombay?
00:29:04.000 What?
00:29:04.000 They changed the name, didn't they?
00:29:06.000 Beijing?
00:29:07.000 Yeah.
00:29:07.000 Maybe a long time ago.
00:29:08.000 I don't know if it's Beijing or Peking.
00:29:10.000 The point is, I don't care.
00:29:11.000 It's either one's duck.
00:29:12.000 I don't like that we have anything to do right now with China in the capacity that we do.
00:29:19.000 I know you disagree, you think we should go to the Olympics.
00:29:20.000 Yes.
00:29:20.000 I absolutely do not.
00:29:21.000 Every time.
00:29:22.000 Of course not.
00:29:24.000 Unless they're in North Korea.
00:29:25.000 Well, I'm going to make my case as to why not.
00:29:26.000 Okay, fine.
00:29:26.000 Okay?
00:29:27.000 And I understand where you're coming from.
00:29:28.000 You do?
00:29:29.000 But you're wrong.
00:29:31.000 So, first off, let me set the stage.
00:29:32.000 Do you remember when President Donald Trump said this?
00:29:36.000 Biden is a puppet for China.
00:29:38.000 Son walked out with 1.5 billion.
00:29:40.000 I think it's a little bit.
00:29:42.000 Allowing them to rip off America for many years.
00:29:46.000 And by the way, he wasn't the only one who was echoed by this geopolitical analysis or correspondent in China himself.
00:29:53.000 Donald Trump don't trust China!
00:29:54.000 China is an asshole!
00:29:56.000 I mean, that's the thing.
00:29:57.000 CNN could learn from that brevity.
00:29:58.000 Fantastic.
00:29:59.000 You don't need to be so long-winded.
00:30:01.000 I heard everything I need to know.
00:30:02.000 We trust him.
00:30:03.000 He's news.
00:30:04.000 It's true.
00:30:05.000 You talk about the flag.
00:30:07.000 China's been ripping us off for a long time.
00:30:10.000 Okay, China, you can't trust China.
00:30:13.000 They have small heads, small feet.
00:30:16.000 They tie them up.
00:30:17.000 They bind them, the feet.
00:30:20.000 It's sick, folks.
00:30:21.000 It's sick.
00:30:26.000 You know what?
00:30:26.000 If nothing else, you've got to give credit to President Donald Trump.
00:30:29.000 Everyone was saying China's going to be the next great superpower of the world, and Donald Trump said, uh, not on my watch, and it's a Rolex, by the way.
00:30:40.000 Submariner.
00:30:41.000 Yes.
00:30:42.000 Not on my $10,000 Breitling, okay?
00:30:47.000 I love the dig, though, at Hunter.
00:30:48.000 He's like, they walked away with $1.5 billion and it's like, you know how smart this guy isn't?
00:30:55.000 He's not walking away with $1.5 billion for anything unless it's illegal.
00:31:00.000 Of course, there's no way you get it.
00:31:03.000 Especially the Chinese who are, you know, these people are pretty business savvy.
00:31:06.000 They didn't go like, Let's make a pro and con list.
00:31:10.000 Okay, pro.
00:31:11.000 Hunter Biden.
00:31:12.000 Con.
00:31:13.000 Smoke crack.
00:31:14.000 Smoke palm.
00:31:15.000 Have sex with niece.
00:31:16.000 Sexual assaulter.
00:31:17.000 Throw gun and dumpster.
00:31:18.000 But we went good and bad.
00:31:20.000 Let's give Giuliani the rap top.
00:31:23.000 Yeah, let's give Giuliani the rap top.
00:31:25.000 He'll end up in a forest on Colbert.
00:31:28.000 So, it's just Chinese propaganda.
00:31:31.000 We talked with you about the very fetching, and now Victoria's Secret model for their new Chinese foot binders with Juicy written across them, Victoria's Secret.
00:31:39.000 Formerly American, should never be allowed back in the country.
00:31:42.000 Aileen Gu, who defected, became a communist Chinese citizen, just won her first gold yesterday, giving China, of course, a huge propaganda win.
00:31:42.000 Formerly.
00:31:52.000 We all wait with bated breath.
00:31:56.000 Eileen Gu, doing this third and final run, it's 90!
00:32:00.000 There's, they must be so proud.
00:32:10.000 Former American.
00:32:11.000 There is so much online commotion about it.
00:32:14.000 They actually crashed Weibo, which is China's version of Facebook, which is just a funny name.
00:32:20.000 Well, to us.
00:32:22.000 Does it mean anything in Chinese?
00:32:24.000 Why are you asking me?
00:32:25.000 What does it mean?
00:32:26.000 Web?
00:32:26.000 I have no idea.
00:32:28.000 I have no clue.
00:32:29.000 So this is one of those things.
00:32:30.000 They're claiming her as one of their own.
00:32:32.000 She defected from the United States.
00:32:33.000 She trained in the United States.
00:32:34.000 Then went and she is performing at the Olympics for China.
00:32:37.000 And the media doesn't just... Here's the problem.
00:32:39.000 The media doesn't address like, by the way, she was American up until, well, yesterday.
00:32:43.000 And now she's competing for Communist China.
00:32:45.000 And she says that there's more opportunity in China.
00:32:47.000 And isn't this great?
00:32:48.000 Isn't this a wonderful victory for China?
00:32:50.000 First off, any victory for China is now...
00:32:53.000 It's not wonderful for anybody.
00:32:54.000 It's actually, it's a loss for the world.
00:32:56.000 Right.
00:32:56.000 And she wanted to inspire young women.
00:32:58.000 I'm like, yeah, all five they let live.
00:33:00.000 Yes.
00:33:00.000 Right?
00:33:00.000 You want one of them to be a skier.
00:33:02.000 Is that what you're saying?
00:33:02.000 And I have twins, so I've been having to get, you know, his and her everything.
00:33:05.000 I don't know if there's like, you know, baby bathtubs.
00:33:07.000 In China there's a, uh, his bathtub.
00:33:09.000 It's like a little baby bathtub.
00:33:10.000 And, uh, her bathtub is just like a giant goldfish bag that you just wrap and put them in.
00:33:14.000 It's true, yeah.
00:33:15.000 You actually, it comes with a return label.
00:33:16.000 Yes.
00:33:17.000 Send it back to the company.
00:33:18.000 Yeah, they have a nice aquarium there.
00:33:19.000 It's just skeletons of kids.
00:33:21.000 Yeah.
00:33:22.000 By the way, I know everybody's just saying, oh, see, they're clapping, they're happy, it's wonderful.
00:33:26.000 That former tennis star, I don't know if you saw this too, but Peng Xue, she was even planted in the stands to actually cheer on Gu as she won.
00:33:33.000 That's how I decorated my living room, Peng Xue.
00:33:37.000 Everything is totally fine.
00:33:38.000 I don't know if you remember that this was the person who basically accused one of the Chinese Communist Party leaders of sexual assault.
00:33:44.000 She disappeared for a while and went to, I guess, a re-education camp because she came back and said, oh, I never actually said that.
00:33:49.000 These guys are fantastic.
00:33:50.000 She was being sexually assaulted right then.
00:33:52.000 Yeah, they just send you to a place for more sexual assault.
00:34:00.000 You think that was sexual assault?
00:34:01.000 I'm gonna show you sexual assault now!
00:34:02.000 Right, it's like when your dad catches you smoking, he makes you smoke a whole pack of cigarettes.
00:34:05.000 Right, yeah, but it's like Dear Leader in North Korea and everybody's like clapping and falling down in awe of their God walking down the street and then if you pan to the left it's guys with guns on them, you know what I mean?
00:34:15.000 So like, this isn't real.
00:34:16.000 And then the media just goes, of course, Chinese tennis star Peng Shui there, cheering on her teammates.
00:34:21.000 Like, no, she's about to die!
00:34:24.000 Her family is being held somewhere until she applies.
00:34:28.000 That's my problem, is it's different.
00:34:30.000 Because at least back when you're talking about Joe Louis, Max Schmeling, you know, when you're talking about, I just forgot the name of the runner, Jesse Owens, America was cheering for them and the media was very straightforward about, okay, teams, good, bad, we're hoping for a win for the good guys, right?
00:34:44.000 And I know that there's a little bit more to it than that.
00:34:46.000 But now you have the media doing the bidding of China.
00:34:49.000 You have corporations who, by the way, will boycott Georgia.
00:34:53.000 Because they don't believe that you should have an abortion after the baby has a heartbeat and its own DNA.
00:34:58.000 They'll boycott Georgia, but they will.
00:35:00.000 And it's in kindergarten.
00:35:01.000 Right.
00:35:01.000 And they will plaster their name across the skating rink in China where they are actually committing mass genocide.
00:35:07.000 But System of a Down hasn't written a song about that yet, so you know what?
00:35:10.000 We'll get there.
00:35:11.000 Come on.
00:35:11.000 And this is also funny when you talk about pandering.
00:35:14.000 Speaking of the Chinese, Uyghurs.
00:35:16.000 Spelled U-Y-G-H-U-R-K in the comment section.
00:35:20.000 I don't want you making little snippet comments.
00:35:21.000 Little rap jokes.
00:35:22.000 I know.
00:35:23.000 I agree.
00:35:23.000 Come on.
00:35:24.000 I'm just saying I used to be one.
00:35:25.000 There's no more M&M jokes here.
00:35:27.000 No.
00:35:28.000 No vanilla ice jokes.
00:35:29.000 Uyghurs, it's a serious problem.
00:35:30.000 But anyways, the Uyghurs have been, of course, abused.
00:35:34.000 These are Muslims in China.
00:35:35.000 Check a rose.
00:35:36.000 Who have been completely Today is cynical, some might even say sickening move by the Chinese government during its highly choreographed opening ceremony.
00:35:47.000 and watch the media cover what a victory this is.
00:35:49.000 Today, a cynical, some might even say sickening move by the Chinese government during its highly choreographed opening
00:35:54.000 ceremony, Beijing gave the honor of being one of the two athletes to
00:35:59.000 light the Olympic torch to a member of the oppressed.
00:36:02.000 Good for Jake Tapper.
00:36:02.000 I'm glad we found that clip.
00:36:03.000 He actually called the balls and strikes.
00:36:05.000 an ethnic minority that the Chinese government is right now committing genocide against.
00:36:10.000 Good for Jake Tapper.
00:36:11.000 I'm glad we found that clip.
00:36:12.000 He actually called the balls and strikes and he's dead.
00:36:17.000 And he's been fired from CNN.
00:36:18.000 He's disappeared.
00:36:19.000 Sad suicide today.
00:36:21.000 They weren't expecting just even Jake Tapper.
00:36:23.000 They weren't expecting anyone.
00:36:24.000 Like, hey, look, we're good with Uyghurs, right?
00:36:26.000 There's one right here, riding torch.
00:36:28.000 And then we push him in.
00:36:29.000 Wait a minute.
00:36:30.000 You mean they've been committing genocide for years against the Uyghurs and they gave them the ability to light the opening flame to the...
00:36:35.000 All is forgiven!
00:36:36.000 I mean, we're even, right?
00:36:38.000 Oh, no, no, they burned him.
00:36:41.000 And now we go to HumanTorch slash Uyghur.
00:36:45.000 Look at that.
00:36:47.000 Look at all that warmth on a cold, chilly night.
00:36:50.000 Good for China.
00:36:52.000 Don't worry, they'll throw her in the nuclear power plant cooling tower after this, and I think we'll be good to just move on.
00:36:58.000 And they used, by the way, the nuclear power plant, the cooling tower, doubles as a slope for the slalom hill, so really multipurpose-oriented here, the Orientals.
00:37:07.000 Well, at least they stopped the beatings in the jail cells so that the Uyghurs could look and see that one of their own was making it.
00:37:13.000 They didn't stop, they more so put her on pause.
00:37:15.000 Well, they went back to it.
00:37:16.000 Yeah, it was more like, Simon says, red light!
00:37:20.000 Green right!
00:37:20.000 Green right!
00:37:21.000 Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:37:21.000 I didn't say Simon Says!
00:37:23.000 I don't need to!
00:37:23.000 I beat you!
00:37:24.000 Bang bang bang!
00:37:25.000 Gosh, this place is terrible.
00:37:27.000 It's an awful, awful, awful place.
00:37:29.000 Yes it is.
00:37:30.000 And China's reasoning for some of this was because, according to the CCP, Xinjiang invented skiing.
00:37:39.000 You see this claim?
00:37:40.000 I know!
00:37:40.000 I followed that hill!
00:37:41.000 Yes, exactly.
00:37:42.000 I ski!
00:37:44.000 That is it.
00:37:46.000 They just pushed a Mongolian down the wall.
00:37:48.000 He didn't make it.
00:37:49.000 We told you, keep out!
00:37:50.000 Oh, look at that!
00:37:51.000 Put some wood on his feet!
00:37:52.000 No, this is what they wrote.
00:37:54.000 Yila Mengu Jiang grew up in Altay, a prefecture bordering Mongolia in far northwest Xinjiang.
00:38:00.000 Chinese officials consider the region the cradle of alpine sport, after cave paintings were discovered there of hunters on skis, dated at 10,000 years old.
00:38:10.000 Actually, the world's oldest skiing artifacts originate from, no surprise, Russia.
00:38:15.000 Yeah, not China.
00:38:16.000 Russia.
00:38:18.000 This is the thing, when you lie so much, I don't think they were ready for the world stage.
00:38:22.000 People are going, that's a lie.
00:38:24.000 No one calls us.
00:38:25.000 I know.
00:38:25.000 We didn't expect that.
00:38:26.000 We just say we invented skiing.
00:38:28.000 You say, okay, you invented skiing and fireworks and noodles.
00:38:31.000 Good.
00:38:32.000 More money.
00:38:33.000 That wasn't the only tone-deaf torchbearer that they had.
00:38:36.000 Lane just sent me this.
00:38:37.000 They had another deaf Well, so we brought this up a little bit earlier when we were talking about stones being used as weapons of war.
00:38:43.000 20 Indian soldiers were killed while one of the torchbearers was... Let me bring it up.
00:38:50.000 You got another overlay here?
00:38:51.000 Yeah.
00:38:52.000 One of the torchbearers was this guy, who was one of the people killing the Indian soldiers with stones.
00:38:57.000 Was this his reward?
00:38:59.000 Great way for him to honor their country.
00:39:01.000 They're just walking out, and no one in China's like, hey, isn't that the guy who was killing the other guy?
00:39:06.000 Yeah, well, he got to 20.
00:39:07.000 So he murdered people and he got to light the torch?
00:39:09.000 Yeah, it's a magic number.
00:39:11.000 Yeah, that's totally cool.
00:39:12.000 We should compete in this.
00:39:13.000 Yeah, I remember with the walkout, we had George Zimmerman playing the trumpet.
00:39:18.000 Why do you feel, honestly, we should compete?
00:39:21.000 Why do I feel that?
00:39:22.000 Yes.
00:39:23.000 I think it's important for us to compete in the Olympics, no matter what the scenario, to some extent.
00:39:28.000 There may be some exceptions to that, but think about this in Nazi Germany.
00:39:31.000 Like Communist China?
00:39:32.000 No.
00:39:32.000 Jesse Owens goes there and actually beats the Aryan race in front of Hitler and made a statement.
00:39:41.000 It was fantastic.
00:39:42.000 We could have boycotted that Olympics, but we chose to go.
00:39:44.000 In this case, what we need our companies to do is not carry the water for China.
00:39:48.000 We need our athletes to go and compete And do well, because this is the world watching.
00:39:53.000 I'm just hoping before this ends there are some Taiwanese who pull a Munich.
00:39:56.000 Yeah, for sure.
00:39:57.000 And leave?
00:39:58.000 No, no, I mean pull a Munich.
00:40:00.000 That's not what he means.
00:40:00.000 You not see that movie with Eric Bana?
00:40:02.000 No, I did see the movie.
00:40:03.000 I'm just trying to understand the context.
00:40:05.000 You want them to kill some... You don't want them to kill anybody, right?
00:40:07.000 No, I want the Taiwanese to kill the Chinese Communist officials.
00:40:09.000 Oh, the Chinese officials.
00:40:10.000 Yes, yes, yes, yes.
00:40:11.000 That's what I really meant, because I only know the movie.
00:40:13.000 Yes, exactly.
00:40:14.000 He doesn't understand the historical context.
00:40:15.000 I didn't read the rich history.
00:40:17.000 So I guess for Gerald, the only appropriate scenario where we would not compete is if the Olympics were taking place in the actual Hotel Rwanda.
00:40:26.000 No, I'd still go.
00:40:26.000 Is that it?
00:40:27.000 No, I think you'd still go.
00:40:28.000 Just not for the Winter Olympics.
00:40:30.000 Don Cheadle's lighting the torch.
00:40:32.000 No, I want the IOC not to put the Olympics in places like this.
00:40:36.000 We've done Russia a couple of times.
00:40:37.000 But that's the problem.
00:40:38.000 The IOC, just like the UN, it's not what it used to be.
00:40:41.000 The IOC is now a political organization.
00:40:44.000 They're looking for dollar bills, baby, just like... The IOC doesn't even require...
00:40:48.000 Transgender athletes to have undergone one year of hormone replacement therapy now.
00:40:51.000 Now you just say what you are.
00:40:53.000 That's it.
00:40:53.000 They say, well, we're leaving it to the individual sports.
00:40:55.000 Well, do you leave it to the individual sports for people to take steroids?
00:40:58.000 Well, no, no.
00:40:58.000 We'd have to regulate that.
00:40:59.000 Okay.
00:41:00.000 When testosterone is injected directly into the ass, however, we're a little murky on the rule book.
00:41:04.000 The point is, all they're doing is acquiescing to social justice, international governments.
00:41:08.000 It's not the same as when we went to No, I know that, but what do you achieve by not going?
00:41:14.000 So if we don't go, they're like, okay, fine, whatever, we don't care.
00:41:17.000 Obviously, they're bowing down to China anyway.
00:41:20.000 They don't care if the United States goes.
00:41:21.000 We don't have the power that we think we do with the IOC.
00:41:24.000 And the athletes who have this much of a window to compete don't get to compete.
00:41:28.000 Well, if you do, if everyone boycotts China, then the World Championships become a bigger deal.
00:41:33.000 But not everybody's going to do this.
00:41:34.000 We can't even get Germany to say that they're going to cancel the freaking pipeline to make sure Russia doesn't invade Ukraine.
00:41:41.000 We don't have the backing because we have Joe Biden in office.
00:41:44.000 I mean, I didn't expect Germany to ever get it right.
00:41:46.000 Well, that's true.
00:41:46.000 If we had Trump in office, I would agree, because he would take a hard line and he would be like, listen, IOC.
00:41:52.000 So I don't know if you know this, but NBC actually parodied, and this is what I'm talking about, unlike Jesse Owens.
00:41:57.000 And if you guys don't know about this, let me just give you some context.
00:42:00.000 Joe Lewis beating Max Schmeling, his second fight against Schmeling, is probably one of the most consequential athletic events of all time.
00:42:09.000 Maybe you guys can actually find a video, we can bring it up later on Mug Club.
00:42:12.000 Let me give you the context for this, and this is why Muhammad Ali called Joe Louis a house negro.
00:42:17.000 He would use a term like Uncle Tom, because Joe Louis was beloved by the country.
00:42:21.000 And he wasn't a race baiter at all.
00:42:23.000 He was supported by white fans and black fans alike.
00:42:26.000 And he was undefeated, except he had lost a fight to Max Schmeling, this German guy.
00:42:31.000 And there was a fight between Joe Louis and Max Schmeling, a rematch, and Hitler was really propping up Max Schmeling, right?
00:42:36.000 This was going to be the ambassador for the Aryan race, and Joe Louis was the American.
00:42:39.000 And the truth is, they were friends later on in life.
00:42:41.000 Max Schmeling actually wasn't a Nazi.
00:42:42.000 He just didn't really have a choice in the matter.
00:42:45.000 But the president called Joe Louis, and this was right before he was about to go to war.
00:42:48.000 Keep in mind, Joe Louis, not a draft dodger like Muhammad Ali.
00:42:51.000 I don't remember if he served or what, but he was going to.
00:42:53.000 He said, I'll answer the call.
00:42:55.000 Yeah.
00:42:55.000 And right before that, you're talking about during World War II, the President called and said, we really need you to win this for the good guys.
00:43:02.000 Yeah.
00:43:02.000 This is a guy, the only guy, to have knocked out Joe Louis at this point.
00:43:07.000 It was many, many, many tens of millions.
00:43:09.000 It might have been like 100 million people, whatever it was.
00:43:11.000 Everyone was tuned into it.
00:43:12.000 I think the stadium was absolutely, I don't remember the numbers, but it was something that would shock you today.
00:43:16.000 Way, way, way, way, way bigger than the Super Bowl.
00:43:18.000 Joe Louis has all of this pressure on his shoulders and he knocked out Max Schmeling, the one guy who beat him up.
00:43:23.000 This was a huge deal.
00:43:25.000 I can't imagine an athlete with more pressure on his shoulders than Joe Louis in that Max Schmeling 2 bout.
00:43:30.000 And it was a perfect right hand that he threw.
00:43:32.000 It was unbelievable.
00:43:34.000 I say that because it was a different time where the President was saying, you're one of our guys.
00:43:39.000 where the media was right championing Joe Louis saying we really hope that our guy beats the
00:43:44.000 fascist beats the National Socialist whereas today you have NBC literally parroting Communist
00:43:51.000 Party talking points during the open opening ceremony watch yeah it's worth remembering that
00:43:57.000 while western countries may be boycotting these Olympics over human rights issues
00:44:02.000 China styles itself as a champion of the developing world and it has plenty of support
00:44:08.000 in countries from Africa to Latin America where its investments of building up local economies
00:44:15.000 Oh, they're not genocidal.
00:44:16.000 They're genocidal stylists!
00:44:19.000 They style themselves.
00:44:20.000 Well, yeah, I guess if you consider saddling developing countries with absolutely unpayable debt to hopefully eventually turn them into indentured servants, which, by the way, indentured servants still exist in China.
00:44:29.000 Yeah, they're a champion of the developing world.
00:44:31.000 How can NBC say that with a straight face?
00:44:34.000 Yeah, it's altruistic, by the way.
00:44:35.000 They're going into these African and Latin American countries and making sure they buy up all the rights to the minerals.
00:44:40.000 Yeah.
00:44:41.000 So that when Apple wants to build their next technological advancement, they're like, you gotta go through us.
00:44:45.000 We have all the minerals in the world.
00:44:48.000 Good luck.
00:44:48.000 Yeah.
00:44:49.000 Seriously, that's what they're doing.
00:44:50.000 This isn't altruistic.
00:44:51.000 They're not going to help the world.
00:44:53.000 They're seeking a financial interest in these countries and having their way.
00:44:56.000 And trying to get them by the short hairs by saddling them with unpayable debt.
00:44:59.000 Yes.
00:45:00.000 This is what they want.
00:45:01.000 And let's kind of move on down the list here, too.
00:45:03.000 China's been lying about events.
00:45:04.000 The events haven't been fair.
00:45:05.000 This is also what's different.
00:45:07.000 The problem is, it's unfair, they're cheating, and of course because there's a complicit media who's afraid to speak out against China, they don't call them on it.
00:45:14.000 Let me give you a few examples.
00:45:15.000 So China won multiple golds in speed skating after some unbelievable penalty calls.
00:45:20.000 So in the 1km semifinal, South Korean skater, you knew that guy wasn't going to win, he South Korean and China?
00:45:28.000 Jamaican bobsled team can win, so can he.
00:45:31.000 If there was a South Korean competing and he set the world record by several body lengths, they would have just said no because it was a ghost.
00:45:41.000 So a South Korean skater, world record holder, I want to make sure I get his name right, Hwang Daehyun, and people will say I'm a racist for not getting it right, was disqualified.
00:45:49.000 Here's the thing, I think we have a clip.
00:45:50.000 He was disqualified.
00:45:52.000 Well, okay.
00:45:53.000 I want you to watch it and see what the South Korean does.
00:45:56.000 You'll be like, well, that guy should get the medal.
00:45:57.000 And he didn't.
00:45:58.000 So look, there he is.
00:46:03.000 The guy in the white.
00:46:05.000 Look at that!
00:46:06.000 Look at that!
00:46:07.000 Boom!
00:46:08.000 Pulls ahead.
00:46:08.000 You saw that?
00:46:09.000 Yeah.
00:46:09.000 That's why he was disqualified, because he passed two Chinese skaters.
00:46:12.000 He was, uh... Really?
00:46:13.000 Yes!
00:46:13.000 I think they're saying it was an illegal pass.
00:46:16.000 Right, okay.
00:46:16.000 Illegal pass!
00:46:17.000 Yeah, because we know Chinese folks know so much about passing.
00:46:21.000 Have you seen them in the left lane?
00:46:22.000 The point is, they have... Yeah.
00:46:25.000 Illegal pass!
00:46:26.000 What?
00:46:26.000 You pass someone who's Chinese!
00:46:28.000 It's true, it's like it just wasn't a pileup in the middle of the ice.
00:46:32.000 What?
00:46:32.000 Well, it's an illegal pass because you pass Chinese!
00:46:35.000 Yeah!
00:46:36.000 You can pass, but can't pass Chinese!
00:46:38.000 That is unbelievable.
00:46:39.000 He passed two Chinese athletes and they said it's illegal!
00:46:42.000 Just because they're Chinese athletes!
00:46:43.000 I think they said he crossed the blue line.
00:46:44.000 No, you put your hand down, which is totally legal from the last time I checked speed skating.
00:46:48.000 In the final, after crossing the line first, Hungarian skater was disqualified, giving who?
00:46:52.000 What?
00:46:52.000 Who the gold?
00:46:53.000 China!
00:46:55.000 Oh!
00:46:55.000 Everything's coming up commie!
00:46:57.000 Weird.
00:46:58.000 And, of course, South Korea, they've lodged an official complaint and an appeal over the issue.
00:47:02.000 I'm sure, yeah, they'll get right on that.
00:47:03.000 Yeah.
00:47:04.000 The IOC that gave it to Communist China in the first place is actually going to overturn that?
00:47:07.000 No.
00:47:07.000 Right.
00:47:07.000 Yeah.
00:47:09.000 Oh, no!
00:47:09.000 Oh, you're mad!
00:47:10.000 You say we broke rule?
00:47:11.000 IOC, I wouldn't, no, they say it was fair, so, you know, better luck next time!
00:47:16.000 These world organizations won't even acknowledge that Taiwan's a country.
00:47:20.000 Yeah.
00:47:20.000 You think they're going to overturn a medal?
00:47:21.000 No, of course not.
00:47:21.000 It's like, ah, we don't have time for this.
00:47:22.000 No, we don't have time for this.
00:47:24.000 Also, we need the money.
00:47:26.000 So, uh, and then later the United States Speed Skating, uh, they had a mixed relay team.
00:47:30.000 Uh-huh.
00:47:31.000 By that means mixed, uh, I think means, uh, you know, mixed, uh, uh, uh, male and, uh, or, uh... I can't say male and female, I can't say.
00:47:36.000 No, no, no, no.
00:47:36.000 It's, uh, interracial.
00:47:38.000 People.
00:47:38.000 Yeah.
00:47:39.000 What about gender?
00:47:41.000 I don't know.
00:47:42.000 It's just, it's safer to say interracial.
00:47:45.000 Um, the mixed relay team was disqualified, and that, guess what happened?
00:47:50.000 They switched parts?
00:47:51.000 Well, it allowed someone to win the gold.
00:47:54.000 Can you guys guess who won the gold instead when they were disqualified?
00:47:58.000 China?
00:47:59.000 He spoiled it!
00:48:03.000 America have got second in China!
00:48:07.000 Wu Dajing couldn't bring it home in third place.
00:48:11.000 And Shaolin Sandal Liu...
00:48:14.000 And the United States are going to the gold medal match.
00:48:20.000 And the United States have also been penalised as well.
00:48:24.000 So that means the two teams going through will be hungry in China.
00:48:31.000 Oh, there you go.
00:48:32.000 And the other Hungarian person got disqualified, so it's like, you know what, you win some, you win some, China.
00:48:37.000 Oh my gosh.
00:48:38.000 And the American skater Man Bainey, I think you have that right, said, apparently one of our teammates crossed the blue line and that made the Chinese team miss their exchange or something like that.
00:48:46.000 It was an interesting call for sure, but it is what it is.
00:48:48.000 That means I got screwed.
00:48:49.000 Well, he's gonna get killed if he says that.
00:48:52.000 And I do love the, you know what the most amusing, and we'll get to the propaganda from the media there too, by the way, that's just absolutely terrifying, but it shouldn't be all that surprising.
00:48:59.000 The funniest response from the biased refereeing was from a Korean reporter, Lim Byung-sun.
00:49:04.000 Do you know what he, I don't know if you wrote this, if you read this, he wrote an entire article with the same sentence repeated 10 times.
00:49:11.000 It just says, let's just give China all the medals.
00:49:15.000 Let's just give China all of the medals.
00:49:17.000 That's all he wrote.
00:49:19.000 Ten times.
00:49:19.000 Fair point.
00:49:20.000 If this is how it's going to go, where all these things are just being judged by them, it's like, okay, fine, we get it, we get it.
00:49:25.000 And I would say, by the way, all the references are available at lottocreditor.com, but that one was scrubbed.
00:49:30.000 It went viral, though, so we have screenshots, but we can't actually give you a link.
00:49:32.000 Oh, okay.
00:49:33.000 Wonder how that happened.
00:49:34.000 Which brings us to our next point.
00:49:37.000 This Dutch reporter, so you know, I don't know if you know this, but it's a communist country, China.
00:49:42.000 Well, and it's open and fair society for reporters.
00:49:44.000 They can report on anything they want.
00:49:45.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:49:47.000 And COVID came from a bat.
00:49:49.000 Well, yes, of course.
00:49:50.000 So there's a Dutch reporter on air, and what's funny to me is he seems surprised by this, where he's dragged away by a communist Chinese goon mid-reporting.
00:49:59.000 They don't even care.
00:50:00.000 Here.
00:50:01.000 We're going to China to our correspondent Sjoerd ten Da.
00:50:03.000 Sjoerd, you're right next to the stadium.
00:50:06.000 What is China going to show us in the next few hours?
00:50:09.000 We're being pulled out of the market.
00:50:11.000 We've already been moved to another area.
00:50:13.000 So I'm afraid we'll have to come back later.
00:50:15.000 We have already removed it. We have also removed it from another area.
00:50:19.000 So I'm afraid we'll have to come back to you later.
00:50:22.000 I think so too, Sjoerd.
00:50:24.000 I thought that was a hand arm, I thought you were gonna say...
00:50:25.000 Oh my gosh.
00:50:26.000 Fair.
00:50:26.000 Open society.
00:50:27.000 I don't know what's happening.
00:50:29.000 They're hurting him.
00:50:31.000 Oh my gosh.
00:50:33.000 Fair. Open society.
00:50:35.000 Now he's frying with weather.
00:50:37.000 They said, no, no, no, his location was too dingy.
00:50:41.000 Ah.
00:50:41.000 Oh, so then you put him at the Ritz?
00:50:42.000 No, revoke press pass.
00:50:44.000 Ah, yes.
00:50:44.000 Send him to Uyghur camp.
00:50:45.000 Yeah, send him to Uyghur camp.
00:50:47.000 Sorry, I mean super fun adventure land.
00:50:49.000 Yeah, summer camp.
00:50:50.000 Slightly rest beating.
00:50:52.000 Right, yes.
00:50:52.000 Ropes course.
00:50:53.000 Summer camp with no food or water.
00:50:55.000 Yeah, good time.
00:50:57.000 McMahon.
00:50:57.000 Anti-fat camp.
00:50:59.000 Learn to canoe.
00:50:59.000 Learn to fish.
00:51:01.000 And the propaganda arm is just absolutely everywhere when you look at the Communist Chinese Party.
00:51:05.000 So let me give you some examples here.
00:51:06.000 Twitter had to remove thousands of state-backed Chinese accounts.
00:51:09.000 Now that would seem like, oh, progress.
00:51:11.000 However, they still have allowed Chinese state officials to be on their platform, like Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Hsiang-Hsiu Ching-Chiang, I can't get it right, posts gems like this.
00:51:19.000 The Uyghur ethnic group enjoys equal rights and freedoms as the other 55 ethnic groups in China.
00:51:25.000 The U.S.
00:51:25.000 should enact an African American Human Rights Policy Act instead of the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act.
00:51:31.000 China, of course, controls free speech not only in China, but in United States colleges by things like Confucius Institutes.
00:51:37.000 The CCP spies.
00:51:38.000 We've talked about this.
00:51:39.000 They actually do have CCP spies, Chinese Communist Party spies here in the United States.
00:51:44.000 Every 10 hours, the FBI opens a new China-related investigation, and it's a non-stop flow of propaganda.
00:51:54.000 These people don't have the American interests at heart.
00:51:56.000 They actually want to see everything that you know and love be destroyed.
00:52:00.000 And the only person who was in office who spoke tough and actually acted tough and got them to act in line at all was President Donald Trump.
00:52:08.000 Why do you think now there's no concern?
00:52:11.000 It's for the same reason that North Korea is firing off rockets like the 4th of July!
00:52:16.000 Because they see former Vice President shitpants and they go, okay, we're fine!
00:52:21.000 Please let that be his new name.
00:52:25.000 I think it is.
00:52:25.000 It says it on his bracelet.
00:52:27.000 Look, we're all lucky if it stays in his pants, okay?
00:52:30.000 They had to clean the Pope's room for an hour after he left, okay?
00:52:35.000 Remember the bathroom incident that delayed the Pope?
00:52:38.000 The rest of the Vatican thought the place was being fumigated.
00:52:40.000 Totemites!
00:52:42.000 Just give me your hat.
00:52:43.000 Please give me your hat.
00:52:45.000 So this is one of the unintended consequences of the left right now parroting this lie, this Black Lives Matter lie, that black Americans are more likely to be shot by cops than white Americans.
00:52:56.000 And we've debunked that over and over again.
00:52:58.000 Do you see what our enemies are quoting to us right now?
00:53:00.000 Right.
00:53:00.000 You worry about killing African Americans in your communities and we'll worry about our problems.
00:53:05.000 Right.
00:53:05.000 You're giving comfort and aid to a potential enemy, at least economically an enemy right now, somebody who definitely does not have our best interest at heart.
00:53:13.000 Because you wanted to get the votes of a group.
00:53:17.000 That's it.
00:53:18.000 Right.
00:53:18.000 You just wanted some votes.
00:53:19.000 You're willing to trade everything that we believe in for votes so that you can stay in power and do what you want to do.
00:53:25.000 Yeah.
00:53:25.000 How small is that?
00:53:26.000 That's what the Chinese Communist Party, what they use for propaganda is they just use a talking point.
00:53:31.000 Yeah.
00:53:31.000 Former Vice President Biden and Kamala Harris.
00:53:32.000 The left.
00:53:33.000 That's it.
00:53:33.000 That's it.
00:53:33.000 That's all they do.
00:53:34.000 Yeah.
00:53:35.000 And you have the people who've obviously been subjugated and they're afraid to speak out, of course, in China.
00:53:38.000 And it's a very different culture.
00:53:39.000 When people talk about crime, when people talk, even in Japan, where they talk about, hey, there's less gun crime, they can ban guns there.
00:53:44.000 Look, it's a very, very different culture.
00:53:46.000 And the kind of stuff, the kind of things that are happening in China would not fly here in the United States.
00:53:49.000 Why?
00:53:50.000 Precisely because of the kind of country that created the First Amendment and the Second Amendment.
00:53:53.000 Which former Vice President Joe Biden wants to do away with.
00:53:57.000 You just heard him talking about that.
00:53:58.000 Weapons of war.
00:54:00.000 We are in a time in this country where international battle lines are being drawn.
00:54:03.000 And I know it was a great idea at one point that we are the world.
00:54:06.000 Isn't that great?
00:54:07.000 All hold hands.
00:54:08.000 You can't hold hands with someone who wants to commit genocide.
00:54:13.000 Not wants, is committing genocide.
00:54:14.000 You can't hold hands with someone who doesn't believe in the freedom to hold hands.
00:54:19.000 And that's why I don't think that we should be contributing.
00:54:20.000 I don't think that we should be competing there.
00:54:21.000 I get it.
00:54:22.000 It can hurt some athletes, but there are other ways for them to compete.
00:54:25.000 I don't think the IOC is something that should be honored, recognized, or respected by the United States anymore.
00:54:29.000 I think it's become a joke, and I think that China is a serious threat, and I think it's one that we could absolutely crush economically if we had the fortitude to do so.
00:54:39.000 And by the way, if you're sitting out there talking about social justice and systemic racism, there should be no one more enthusiastic in this country Based on their rhetoric, there should be no one in this country more enthusiastic about crushing China financially than the liberals, than the Democratic Party.
00:54:56.000 Systemic discrimination, right?
00:54:59.000 Justice, okay.
00:55:01.000 Why do you want to be allies with China?
00:55:03.000 Why do you want TPP?
00:55:05.000 Why do you want NAFTA?
00:55:06.000 Why was it Donald Trump, who believes in strong national borders, who doesn't believe that we have a systemically racist country, why was it him who said we need to be tough on China because they actually commit gross human rights abuses?
00:55:16.000 Why aren't you?
00:55:17.000 Why are you complaining about non-rights violations here and do nothing?
00:55:22.000 No, I'm not saying you go in and you police China, you police the World Team America.
00:55:26.000 I get that you can't do that, but there are some easy things to do, like not sharing technology.
00:55:31.000 Like maybe not patronizing China, like maybe putting the tariffs on them, squeezing the financial vice on them a little bit, like making sure that their spy apps aren't allowed, like getting, like, you know what, Swalwell, start with not banging Chinese spies.
00:55:43.000 That would be a good jumping off point.
00:55:44.000 It's a low bar.
00:55:45.000 And even if you do, use a Jimmy hat.
00:55:46.000 We're not asking a lot.
00:55:49.000 Well, I love how the left just went absolutely nuts when we said, hey, look, we're seeing a lot of Muslim attackers on American culture right now.
00:55:56.000 We're seeing bombers and we're seeing all this stuff around the world.
00:55:58.000 No, we saw that and we said, hey, maybe we should look at the Islamic religion.
00:56:01.000 And oh, I can't believe that you would say this about them.
00:56:04.000 They're being killed right now in China.
00:56:07.000 They're being interned at the very least and rights taken away and beatings.
00:56:11.000 And we're coming to their defense.
00:56:13.000 Right.
00:56:13.000 Where are you?
00:56:14.000 Jake Tapper finally comes to the party and says something with the Olympics launch.
00:56:18.000 Where have you been?
00:56:20.000 And by the way, though, that also tells you something.
00:56:21.000 The reason that they're being oppressed that way in China is, and I'm not saying, of course, we should do that anywhere else.
00:56:26.000 I think you should be free to practice any religion.
00:56:26.000 I think it's horrible.
00:56:28.000 But they do understand and recognize China, a communist regime, a distinctly atheist communist regime.
00:56:32.000 that Islam is not like Christianity, Islam is not like Jehovah's Witnesses, it's not like Mormons,
00:56:37.000 it's not like Buddha, take your pick, insert it here. It is a prescription for a political
00:56:42.000 ideology, and they see that as a threat to their political system. That's why they are much harsher
00:56:47.000 on Uyghurs than they are, I mean, they're harsh on pretty much anyone who practices religion,
00:56:50.000 but they're not committing mass genocide to that level. So that should also, again,
00:56:53.000 just raise some eyebrows.
00:56:56.000 Why is China looking this way at Islam?
00:56:58.000 Because they have to maintain control.
00:57:01.000 And Islam does say, look, this is how you establish an Islamic government.
00:57:06.000 That's different.
00:57:07.000 There is no way to establish a Christian government.
00:57:09.000 No, because someone reads a Bible verse when they go and speak in the Senate floor is not the same thing.
00:57:13.000 So, I think we do need to recognize the warning signs that they see, and also understand that, of course, they're an absolutely awful, horrible country with whom we should have nothing to do with at this point.
00:57:22.000 And I want you to comment below what your thoughts here are on China, what your thoughts are on the Olympics, if you do think we should compete, if you don't.
00:57:28.000 I don't think we should have anything to do with it because we're at a different point in history, specifically because of the IOC, specifically also because of the way the media is covering this.
00:57:35.000 We have no allies on the side of freedom with these international events.
00:57:39.000 That's the problem.
00:57:40.000 On the flip side, though, even though this has been a huge propaganda campaign, the Chinese, you know, the topography is something really special.
00:57:48.000 It is a beautiful backdrop there.
00:57:55.000 It's a beautiful place.
00:57:56.000 Hey, we've got some cooling towers.
00:57:57.000 Looks like a water park in front of the Simpsons intro.
00:57:59.000 Yeah, let's put the ski jump there.
00:58:02.000 You sure about that?
00:58:05.000 No, yeah, they're going to sign on to the Paris Accord.
00:58:07.000 They'll get right on that.
00:58:09.000 It's just, this is, those are nuclear coolers, right?
00:58:13.000 I think so.
00:58:15.000 This is the issue is they're just not used to any form of accountability that they didn't even realize, you know what, we're going to see those.
00:58:22.000 I don't know if you know this but we can see that they're highlighting no no no no no no no no like
00:58:27.000 bazing saddles just fake town behind it is beautiful mountain. Then why don't you just
00:58:33.000 show us a beautiful mountain to uh toll you off scent. The internment camp is right behind that
00:58:39.000 so we had to make sure you couldn't. The Olympics are a perfect microcosm of when people talk about
00:58:44.000 China becoming the next great superpower. Yeah if you let them cheat if they just ban people if they
00:58:50.000 just they just disqualify people who beat their team yeah and make up some rule it's the same
00:58:55.000 thing when we're dealing with international diplomacy when we're dealing with with
00:58:58.000 geopolitical issues specifically fiscally economically if you're
00:59:01.000 If you just allow them to cheat, if you just allow them to devalue, if you just allow them to put tariffs on what comes in and not what goes out, if you just allow them to take advantage of the American economic system and steal intellectual property, well sure they can become a great superpower.
00:59:14.000 The good thing is we can do a lot about that now to stop it.
00:59:18.000 You can look at the concrete policies from Donald Trump, and you can look at how they play differently under Donald Trump.
00:59:23.000 They're right back to their old tricks.
00:59:26.000 Under the people who are supposed to get everyone accountable on the Paris Accord, right?
00:59:29.000 Under the new party who's supposed to get everyone to play ball with international climate change agreements, and they're worse than ever.
00:59:38.000 All right, look, we actually have coming up here in a little bit, but I want to play this clip because...
00:59:43.000 You know, our next guest, Senator Ted Cruz, has not only talked about the issues with big tech quite a bit in the past, and he's spearheading some bills there, which I hope will actually, you know, be fruitful, but more importantly, we want to talk about the GoFundMe situation, because this has been a big deal with Canada, and it could be mirrored in the United States.
01:00:00.000 It has been mirrored in the United States.
01:00:01.000 There's this leaked Zoom call.
01:00:02.000 I want to show this before we bring him on.
01:00:04.000 It revealed that the mayor of Ottawa, the mayor of Ottawa, was responsible For the GoFundMe of the Freedom Convoy truckers in Canada, $10 million being pulled down.
01:00:14.000 Here's the video.
01:00:15.000 We have, through the efforts of Deputy Bell, Christiane Hinault, the Mayor and his staff, we've been able to shut down the GoFundMe program.
01:00:23.000 That's a temporary reprieve because the funds are already moving in different directions.
01:00:28.000 We are now going after supply and fuel coming into the area through investigations and intelligence operations and interdictions.
01:00:36.000 All of which were underway yesterday, fully underway today.
01:00:39.000 Well, it's not a violation of First Amendment if a company does whatever it wants.
01:00:43.000 Why don't you go build your own GoFundMe?
01:00:45.000 So here to talk about that and more is Senator Ted Cruz.
01:00:53.000 All right, he is the host of Verdict Podcast.
01:00:56.000 You can find him on the Twitter at SenTedCruz.
01:01:00.000 Senator Cruz, how are you, sir?
01:01:01.000 Thanks for being here.
01:01:02.000 Stephen, I'm doing fantastic.
01:01:03.000 How are you?
01:01:04.000 You're in the great state of Texas and I'm not.
01:01:06.000 You're doing better than I am.
01:01:07.000 Well, thank you very much.
01:01:08.000 And you, but you have that depth of field thing going on there.
01:01:10.000 It's like you have Darren Aronofsky using your webcam.
01:01:14.000 That's pretty cool.
01:01:15.000 You know, it's all smoke and mirrors now.
01:01:18.000 Oh, OK.
01:01:18.000 All right.
01:01:18.000 Well, that makes sense.
01:01:20.000 I'm actually in the same green screen room where we fake the moon landing.
01:01:23.000 Yes, that makes perfect sense.
01:01:25.000 And where they also have the slalom slopes for the Communist Chinese Olympic Games.
01:01:30.000 So I want to go back to that.
01:01:31.000 I will admit it was really great seeing Skiers filming Blade Runner.
01:01:36.000 I mean, here's the Blade Runner set.
01:01:40.000 Disappointing future, China is there for you.
01:01:44.000 Right, yes.
01:01:46.000 By the way, new Blade Runner is better than the old Blade Runner.
01:01:48.000 People can change my mind.
01:01:50.000 Although it's great if you don't have Ambien on hand, the original Blade Runner.
01:01:54.000 Have you seen the video with the mayor of Ottawa who just admitted and actually took pride in the fact that he was responsible for this GoFundMe being taken down?
01:02:02.000 For people who don't know, $10 million raised for these Freedom Convoy truckers.
01:02:05.000 Not one act of violence committed.
01:02:07.000 According to the police, not one act of violence committed.
01:02:09.000 Entirely peaceful protest.
01:02:11.000 This mayor just bragged about getting the GoFundMe taken down.
01:02:13.000 Have you seen that yet?
01:02:15.000 So I just heard you play it a second ago.
01:02:17.000 I had not heard it before then.
01:02:19.000 But look, what's going on in Canada.
01:02:21.000 Number one, stop for a second.
01:02:24.000 It is amazing.
01:02:25.000 It is a phenomenal groundswell.
01:02:30.000 That this freedom convoy is happening.
01:02:33.000 Canadians, if there's one thing about Canadians, they're nice.
01:02:35.000 They're nice, they're polite, and if you see truckers driving into town, honking, they're pissed off.
01:02:45.000 Because the government is trying to force them to get vaccine mandates, to get vaccines against their wishes.
01:02:50.000 Now, my view, I'm pro-vaccine, I'm vaccinated, but I believe in individual liberty.
01:02:54.000 It's your damn choice whether you want to get a vaccine.
01:02:56.000 If you want to get a vaccine, great, knock yourself out.
01:02:59.000 If you don't, great, knock yourself out.
01:03:01.000 It ought to be your choice.
01:03:03.000 And the Canadian truckers who are standing up, they are fighting against government tyranny.
01:03:11.000 And they're fighting not just for Canadians, they're fighting for Americans.
01:03:14.000 And pause for a second.
01:03:15.000 I'm gonna get to the GoFundMe thing in a second, but pause for a second and think about just the phenomenon.
01:03:21.000 This reminds me of the F. Joe Biden chants at football games, that it is spontaneous.
01:03:29.000 Football stadiums all across the country.
01:03:31.000 You know, when F. Joe Biden really had a fight, it was a New England Patriots game in Boston.
01:03:39.000 The entire stadium was chanting what is now known as Let's Go Brandon, but it was in the original Latin, so to speak.
01:03:47.000 Yes.
01:03:49.000 It's a reflection of collective outrage at the arrogance and abuse of the petty tyrants in government who believe they can make these health care decisions for you.
01:04:01.000 Now, take it and put it on steroids, not only due to these Government tyrants believe they can force you to make the healthcare choices they want you to make.
01:04:12.000 Now, $10 million given through GoFundMe to fund and help support these truckers.
01:04:18.000 And what happens?
01:04:20.000 These government officials go to big tech and say, hey, would you steal that money?
01:04:26.000 Would you, number one, take the $10 million that was given for the Canadian truckers?
01:04:31.000 Don't give it to them.
01:04:32.000 But number two, give it to your own shipping costs.
01:04:36.000 Right.
01:04:37.000 I decided, gosh, Steven, I want to take all the money in your bank account, and I want to give it to whatever groups I support.
01:04:46.000 That would be called theft.
01:04:47.000 In order to be prosecuted for stealing someone else's money in this world, big tech is all the happy to be the handmaid for government.
01:04:56.000 Or in some cases it would be called marriage, but, you know, taking it to the Kate Spade store from the account.
01:05:00.000 But yes, no, I agree with you entirely, and it's actually the exact inverse of Robin Hood, where a lot of people say
01:05:07.000 Robin Hood stole from the rich and gave to the poor.
01:05:08.000 No, Robin Hood stole from the corrupt government that had overtaxed its citizens and gave it back to the people.
01:05:14.000 Right now what we are seeing is the government going to go fund me, which is meant to fund me, right?
01:05:19.000 Just like YouTube. The whole idea is it's personal, the little guy going to go fund me and saying,
01:05:23.000 hey, we're going to steal that money and then distribute it to charities of our choice,
01:05:29.000 who no doubt will, of course, support leftist causes, which is a proxy, basically a glorified pack, right?
01:05:34.000 Black Lives Matter, CHAS, CHOP, Liberal Party of Canada.
01:05:37.000 And only when there was pressure put on them did they stop.
01:05:40.000 Now, I saw that you drafted a letter to the Federal Trade Commission, if I'm not mistaken, about GoFundMe and the Canadian Convoy.
01:05:47.000 Do I have that right?
01:05:49.000 No, that's exactly right.
01:05:50.000 Calling on the FTC to investigate GoFundMe for deceptive trade practices.
01:05:55.000 Because look, they've launched this site.
01:05:57.000 They say if you give money, you can give it to the causes, whatever the GoFundMe is.
01:06:02.000 When they turn around and steal that money, or try to steal that money, that's a deceptive trade practice.
01:06:07.000 And in this instance, they ultimately backed down because the public outcry was so great.
01:06:12.000 But they tried to steal $10 million.
01:06:14.000 And listen, I start from a principle that any Big collection of power is wrong and is dangerous.
01:06:24.000 Whether it is an enormous collection of power in government or enormous collection of power in Silicon Valley, that the accumulation of power is a threat to our individual liberty.
01:06:34.000 And what we're seeing here, it's a pattern.
01:06:37.000 We're seeing Wait a second, you haven't been probed?
01:06:39.000 By the way, COVID has unmasked these guys.
01:06:42.000 That they want to control every aspect of your life.
01:06:45.000 They want you fired.
01:06:46.000 They want you silenced.
01:06:47.000 You must be masked, vaccinated.
01:06:49.000 And the next thing you know, they're gonna be doing probes.
01:06:52.000 I don't even wanna know what the next thing is, but these are people who believe they have the power
01:06:58.000 to control every aspect of your life.
01:06:59.000 And then their goons and so- Wait a second, you haven't been probed?
01:07:03.000 I thought that was a more effective swab.
01:07:07.000 Well, it is how the Chinese do COVID testing, Well, yeah, and also the Secretary of Transportation.
01:07:14.000 Moonrider!
01:07:18.000 Right, well, the problem is that's where I keep my spare keys, so I put them back.
01:07:22.000 No, have they gotten back to you, by the way, the FTC?
01:07:26.000 What's her name over there, the chairwoman?
01:07:28.000 Is it Lena Khan?
01:07:31.000 Did she get back to you?
01:07:32.000 They have not yet, although I just sent the letter the day before yesterday.
