00:00:00.000 You could've done your heart with foam, if you keep on doing your heart with your life of love, you know you're
00:00:15.000 making the world a better place. You could've done your heart with foam, if you keep on doing your heart with your
00:00:23.000 life of love, you know you're making the world a better place.
00:00:27.000 You could've done your heart with foam, if you keep on doing your heart with your life of love, you know you're
00:00:36.000 making the world a better place.
00:00:41.000 Federal law prohibits filming of endangered falcons, except for educational purposes.
00:00:47.000 To avoid federal crimes and maximum penalty of up to five years in prison, the following comedy sketch has been edited in post-production to be educational.
00:00:57.000 Viewer discretion is advised.
00:01:01.000 Oh, pretty bird.
00:01:03.000 You're pretty.
00:01:03.000 Oh.
00:01:04.000 Oh.
00:01:04.000 Shh.
00:01:05.000 It's okay.
00:01:05.000 Shh.
00:01:06.000 It's okay, you pretty bird.
00:01:08.000 Shh.
00:01:09.000 What the hell are you doing?
00:01:12.000 This is our falcon, our CrowderShop.com mascot.
00:01:16.000 I'm going to teach her how to haunt.
00:01:18.000 You don't even think about falconing?
00:01:22.000 Actually, it's falconry, which historically was a popular sport and status symbol among the nobles of medieval Europe and Japan, where it's called takaguri.
00:01:32.000 Falconry has been around forever and may have even been started in Mesopotamia.
00:01:39.000 He's got a hysterical little helmet with a spear.
00:01:45.000 Good question, Steven.
00:01:46.000 The Falcon's hood, used during the phase of its acclimating to humans, which is referred to as the manning process, is used to keep the Raptor in a calm state, both in early parts of its training and throughout its life.
00:01:59.000 life.
00:02:13.000 and I'm going to be doing a lot of that.
00:02:14.000 Yes.
00:02:17.000 Falcons aren't naturally human aggressive.
00:02:19.000 Kestra will do well starting with chicken hearts, livers, then switching to other meats like sparrows, other small birds, ducks, ducks and pigeons, and then move on to mice and insects.
00:02:35.000 So remember, if you see a falcon in the wild, it's more afraid of you than you are of him.
00:02:43.000 This one's a her?
00:02:44.000 **** You can't keep releasing falcons on me.
00:02:46.000 If you don't keep going, I'm going to quit.
00:02:52.000 Falcons may be badass, but not as badass as merchandise, which you can get at CryderShop.com.
00:02:57.000 **** You're a strange animal, that's what I know.
00:02:59.000 You're a strange animal, how do you do it?
00:03:41.000 Wonderful sip.
00:03:42.000 Feels good on my throat, too.
00:03:43.000 We have some people here in the office.
00:03:44.000 We have someone who had to test positive for the COVID.
00:03:47.000 And I'm paranoid because I have a slight headache.
00:03:47.000 Ah, that's right.
00:03:50.000 Oh, dude.
00:03:51.000 As opposed to last week.
00:03:52.000 You're gone.
00:03:53.000 We don't know.
00:03:55.000 We don't know.
00:03:56.000 Cherish every day is what I'm telling you.
00:03:58.000 We each have a cross to bear, Stephen.
00:04:00.000 That's true.
00:04:00.000 Yes.
00:04:01.000 You don't have to think about it, dude.
00:04:02.000 Mild headache and low-grade fever.
00:04:04.000 I can't.
00:04:05.000 So, into the grave.
00:04:06.000 My life.
00:04:07.000 Today we're going to, we have a bunch we're going to get to.
00:04:09.000 John Oliver, a lot of people, a lot of you were asking, John Oliver did a whole thing on voting rights yesterday, why it's racist.
00:04:15.000 I didn't feel the need to address it because we've done an entire Change My Mind series on this, we've done a segment, however he brought up some I can't say new arguments, they're very pedestrian, but he brought up the same arguments again.
00:04:25.000 races, all the stuff, you know, voter ID. So we're going to do a piece-by-piece rebuttal.
00:04:29.000 We haven't done one of those in a while. Yeah, it's been a little bit. And we're going to be
00:04:32.000 talking about Joe Biden. You know, he wants 97% vaccination rate in this country. Oh, he does.
00:04:37.000 Yeah, you can't get 97% of Americans to do anything. That's true. And one thing I want
00:04:42.000 to let you guys know too with John Oliver, we want to, with this show, be very clear that all he does
00:04:46.000 is just bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch, bitch.
00:04:48.000 We want to offer some solutions, right?
00:04:49.000 And sometimes it's not necessarily political, but how you can implement these in your life.
00:04:54.000 Because it's really easy to sit back and complain.
00:04:57.000 It's not so easy to actually do something about it.
00:04:59.000 Especially as a Brit.
00:05:00.000 Yeah.
00:05:01.000 Well, there's just, you know, they always, the problem with, there is something increasingly irritating about a Brit coming here and telling us how to run our own country, because the thing they always say about Americans abroad is, you're so arrogant, you think the world should be this way.
00:05:14.000 Show me one American host, French, I don't know what it is, Belgian, show me one American host in the UK Yeah.
00:05:22.000 That'd be funny.
00:05:23.000 Yeah.
00:05:23.000 We're very nice.
00:05:24.000 And that we eat cucumber sandwiches.
00:05:24.000 And they say we're all fat.
00:05:24.000 Yes.
00:05:26.000 Is that nonsense?
00:05:27.000 Yeah, that's the thing.
00:05:28.000 They're talking about me.
00:05:30.000 Gross.
00:05:30.000 Awkward.
00:05:31.000 Very nice.
00:05:32.000 And they say we're all fat.
00:05:33.000 Yes.
00:05:34.000 And that we eat cucumber sandwiches.
00:05:36.000 Is that nonsense?
00:05:37.000 Yeah, that's the thing about me.
00:05:38.000 Gross.
00:05:39.000 Awkward.
00:05:40.000 Is he really?
00:05:41.000 All right, speaking of which, Gerald A., how are you?
00:05:43.000 I am well, and I hate cucumbers, for the record.
00:05:45.000 I do.
00:05:45.000 Really?
00:05:46.000 A lot of pickles hate cucumbers.
00:05:47.000 Really?
00:05:47.000 Hate them.
00:05:48.000 Well, pickles are just a cucumber on drugs.
00:05:49.000 Quarterback Garrett, how are you?
00:05:50.000 Well, you hate eating them.
00:05:50.000 What's going on?
00:05:52.000 That's true.
00:05:53.000 No, I just hate them.
00:05:54.000 Feeling good?
00:05:54.000 None of the COVID?
00:05:55.000 No.
00:05:56.000 Because he's a quarter vaccine hesitant.
00:05:59.000 I'm very hesitant, yes.
00:06:02.000 Dave Landau, how are you, sir?
00:06:03.000 I'm good, ahoy hoy.
00:06:05.000 Hey, everyone out there, you know, Dave Landau has a show coming up this Friday, October 1st.
00:06:09.000 If you are in Pennsylvania, anywhere in the Rust Belt, near Pittsburgh, Philly, Homestead, Pennsylvania, the tickets are in the description below.
00:06:09.000 Yes!
00:06:16.000 Sometimes people don't really know where to go and buy tickets.
00:06:19.000 Support live comedy!
00:06:19.000 Oh, yeah.
00:06:20.000 And you know what?
00:06:21.000 Look, I don't care what you do as far as supporting live comedy in the movement.
00:06:24.000 He's one of the best out there.
00:06:25.000 Very, very funny.
00:06:26.000 Go for it.
00:06:28.000 It's roughly the area where Hillary Clinton had no idea there was a steel company.
00:06:28.000 Okay.
00:06:33.000 Yes, yes.
00:06:35.000 You know, a company's out of business, you mean.
00:06:37.000 The Steelers.
00:06:37.000 Yes.
00:06:39.000 It's not important.
00:06:42.000 She's one of the Steelers.
00:06:44.000 A vote, allegedly.
00:06:45.000 With an A. Allegedly.
00:06:47.000 Election fraud.
00:06:49.000 Not a thing.
00:06:50.000 So.
00:06:50.000 Not real.
00:06:51.000 Not a thing.
00:06:51.000 Never been a thing.
00:06:52.000 No.
00:06:52.000 No.
00:06:53.000 No proof.
00:06:54.000 Hey Dave.
00:06:55.000 It's not a thing.
00:06:56.000 There's no election fraud.
00:06:57.000 I know you think that you've seen some votes.
00:07:00.000 I've seen it.
00:07:00.000 Up here out of nowhere being thrown in the trash.
00:07:02.000 No, stop it.
00:07:03.000 I've seen it.
00:07:04.000 It's not your fault.
00:07:05.000 It is.
00:07:06.000 Election fraud's not a thing.
00:07:07.000 Stop it.
00:07:07.000 So, uh, we have, uh, Moeller left us on TikTok before we move on here, uh, now trying to teach, you know, gender reveals.
00:07:13.000 People are mad about that.
00:07:13.000 Yeah.
00:07:14.000 Uh, gender, they call this gender creative parenting.
00:07:17.000 Well, that's a made up name if I've ever heard one.
00:07:18.000 Hold on.
00:07:19.000 I haven't seen this, but I'm willing to bet.
00:07:22.000 Let's watch the clip.
00:07:24.000 When our child Zoomer was born in 2016, my partner Brent and I decided to raise them without assigning a gender.
00:07:30.000 We didn't disclose their reproductive anatomy to people who didn't need to know.
00:07:34.000 We used the gender-neutral pronouns they, them, their until Zoomer could tell us what pronouns fit best, and we taught Zoomer about bodies, gender, identity, and expression in an expansive and inclusive way.
00:07:46.000 We wanted to hold space for the possibility that Zoomer could be intersex and gender non-binary.
00:07:51.000 We're committed to protecting them from experiencing sexism in early childhood.
00:07:56.000 Zoomer wore all the clothes, played with all the toys, and got to experience a childhood free of gender stereotypes.
00:08:03.000 Around Zoomer's fourth birthday, he told us that he's a boy, and that he loves he-him pronouns.
00:08:09.000 Zoomer knows who he is, and understands that gender is not binary, and that his body... He also loves shitting his pants.
00:08:16.000 We call this gender-creative parenting, and there's resources and an amazing community waiting for you if you want to learn more.
00:08:22.000 See, the key there is... Can I say the woman in the video?
00:08:26.000 I have no idea.
00:08:26.000 Who knows?
00:08:27.000 Z says, we call this creative gender parenting.
00:08:31.000 Okay, you can call it whatever.
00:08:32.000 It's nothing.
00:08:32.000 It's not real.
00:08:33.000 It's not a thing.
00:08:34.000 This is the issue.
00:08:34.000 But then it'll be a thing, and that'll become a part of the curriculum.
00:08:37.000 We're laughing at how absurd it is, but it's hate speech in certain places like the UK to speak out against it.
00:08:42.000 My home country in Canada.
00:08:44.000 Pastors, jailed.
00:08:45.000 Mike Ward, jailed for an offensive joke.
00:08:47.000 This is the issue.
00:08:49.000 Creative gender parenting is not a thing.
00:08:52.000 Do you know how I know?
00:08:53.000 Hospitals.
00:08:54.000 You know the places that you've short-staffed?
00:08:56.000 They have to mark it down!
00:08:59.000 You have to mark down the name Zoomer.
00:09:01.000 I know!
00:09:02.000 I'm sitting there going, you sure?
00:09:04.000 Fine, here's your stupid kid.
00:09:06.000 They leave it in the preemie ward like, you know, we're just gonna leave it unlocked.
00:09:10.000 It would be a shame if someone swapped him and gave him a better life.
00:09:15.000 Boys have a penis, girls have a vagina.
00:09:18.000 Your kid needs parents, not a friend.
00:09:21.000 That's really what it boils down to.
00:09:23.000 I want to eat chocolate all night long.
00:09:25.000 Well, we gotta let him do it.
00:09:27.000 Yeah, before we move on, comment if you're a parent.
00:09:29.000 I just, you know, this is a good, I have, you know, we have twins, and obviously I know people say it'll get harder, all this, I understand, but with twins you have to get them on a schedule, and if one of them starts whining 20 minutes ahead, we, look, you're fine, you're not gonna starve, we change your diaper, Whine it out!
00:09:42.000 And then eventually we're going to get to a point where, oh, I want this!
00:09:45.000 No!
00:09:46.000 No!
00:09:46.000 It doesn't matter if it is M&Ms for dinner or to cut off their penis.
00:09:50.000 The answer is no!
00:09:53.000 Zoomer's gonna be a bit of a prick when he grows up.
00:09:56.000 He's very angry at his parents.
00:09:58.000 I'm serious.
00:09:58.000 He's gonna think the world revolves around him, and I get to experience everything, and it's about me getting to make every choice in life, and it's like, oh, you're just setting yourself up for hell as parents.
00:10:06.000 Zoomer's gonna be like that, I don't know if it was the NPR podcast, where the host would switch genders in the show.
00:10:11.000 What?
00:10:11.000 Like, no, now I'm a, we'll bring this up for Mug Club, someone in the control room.
00:10:14.000 Seriously?
00:10:14.000 Yeah, in the middle of the show, it was like, oh no, now you're talking to Tammy, I'm a woman now.
00:10:18.000 And they were like, Okay, Danny.
00:10:21.000 So you have split personalities.
00:10:23.000 Okay.
00:10:23.000 Yeah, that's normal.
00:10:24.000 Yeah.
00:10:25.000 Okay.
00:10:26.000 So Zoomer was born a girl?
00:10:28.000 No, I think a boy.
00:10:29.000 Oh, and then he figured out all on his own that he's a boy.
00:10:33.000 I don't know if he was born a boy or a girl.
00:10:35.000 They didn't disclose.
00:10:36.000 They didn't disclose.
00:10:38.000 It is ma'am!
00:10:39.000 Boy, I'm gonna buy my son a Kevlar vest.
00:10:43.000 As soon as my son is old enough, he's getting a beer in one hand and a Playboy in the other.
00:10:46.000 I'm not raising San Francisco Green kids.
00:10:48.000 Okay, no Playboys.
00:10:50.000 Yes, Playboys.
00:10:51.000 Fine.
00:10:51.000 They're clothed now.
00:10:53.000 It will be, I don't know, Esquire, whatever it is.
00:10:56.000 It'll be a poster of Farrah Fawcett.
00:10:59.000 Yeah, it won't be a swimsuit issue of Sports Illustrated with a, you know, dick.
00:11:04.000 Yeah, it won't be George Clooney on a bearskin rug, though.
00:11:07.000 We all have our weaknesses.
00:11:08.000 You can only say no to so much.
00:11:11.000 You can only say no to so much.
00:11:12.000 I'm but a man!
00:11:13.000 I'm weak.
00:11:15.000 Biden got his booster shot yesterday.
00:11:16.000 Everyone's talking about, hey, isn't that great?
00:11:17.000 Setting a great example.
00:11:18.000 He got his booster of the Trump vaccine.
00:11:22.000 He said he can return us to normal, but what's key here is what he says about how many Americans need to be vaccinated to return to normal.
00:11:29.000 This is scary.
00:11:30.000 this week in Biden.
00:11:31.000 If you have a problem, figure it out whether you're for me or Trump and you ain't black.
00:11:35.000 How many Americans need to be vaccinated first to go back to normal?
00:11:36.000 What is the percentage of total vaccinations that have to be deployed?
00:11:37.000 Well, I think, look, I think we get the vast majority, like you're pointing out in some
00:11:53.000 of the, some industries and some schools, 97, 98%.
00:11:58.000 I think we're going to go awful close.
00:12:03.000 But I'm not the scientist.
00:12:04.000 I think, but one thing for sure, a quarter of the country can't go unvaccinated.
00:12:11.000 For those listening on audio, uh, yeah, you know what?
00:12:13.000 He did.
00:12:13.000 He just said 97 or 98% to go back to normal.
00:12:14.000 figure out whether you're for me or Trump and you ain't black.
00:12:17.000 For those listening on audio. Yeah, you know what he did?
00:12:17.000 He just said 97 or 98% to go back to normal. Can you get 97 or 98% of Americans to do anything? No, I'm sure for free
00:12:26.000 cash, right?
00:12:29.000 That's true.
00:12:31.000 88% of Americans.
00:12:32.000 They've tried to get free cash for vaccines.
00:12:34.000 Yeah, it didn't work.
00:12:34.000 Yeah, they just started a lottery.
00:12:36.000 The most racist commercials ever.
00:12:38.000 I know.
00:12:39.000 You can win a million dollars, why aren't you vaccinated?
00:12:42.000 Just put a lottery ticket at the end of a fishing pole, and then he's like, hey, I want this.
00:12:45.000 And then he sees a needle, nah.
00:12:47.000 I'm out, man.
00:12:47.000 It would have just been funny for the second he got that shot, he just grabs his... We got a bleeder!
00:12:54.000 His ears grow.
00:12:58.000 Can you imagine how long he bleeds for?
00:13:01.000 It's going to be like two days off lunch.
00:13:03.000 He's going to need to get that other Pfizer anti-clotting drug.
00:13:06.000 Hey!
00:13:06.000 Stock goes up another 542%.
00:13:08.000 Here's the thing.
00:13:09.000 This is terrifying.
00:13:10.000 97.
00:13:10.000 We can't have a quarter of the country.
00:13:12.000 Actually, you can.
00:13:13.000 It's called freedom.
00:13:14.000 Yeah.
00:13:14.000 It is called freedom, and let's just be clear.
00:13:17.000 If you trust your vaccine, it shouldn't affect you.
00:13:20.000 If the vaccine does what they said it was going to do, not the moved goalposts, it doesn't matter.
00:13:26.000 It doesn't matter.
00:13:27.000 Your vaccine works.
00:13:28.000 You only have a 2% chance of being hospitalized and you guys say, hey, it reduces it by 10 times getting hospitalized.
00:13:33.000 We'll get to some numbers here because it's a little bit concerning.
00:13:35.000 I don't necessarily know that that data is reflected in the Data.
00:13:40.000 So the issue here is it is this is a this is a terrifying power grab and we'll get to New York in a little bit yeah releasing the military oh my god yeah this always starts with something small and that's why we'll be talking about John Oliver it's something as silly as seatbelt laws What was that?
00:13:58.000 You just hit something.
00:13:59.000 Also, by the way, keep in mind Fauci said 70% of Americans, right?
00:14:02.000 That was the number.
00:14:03.000 70% for herd immunity?
00:14:04.000 That's a Fauci overlay.
00:14:06.000 70% for herd immunity.
00:14:07.000 And this was after, of course, he mocked Rand Paul for the notion of herd immunity.
00:14:11.000 Well, he's been right about everything else.
00:14:13.000 Yeah!
00:14:14.000 I think actually Fauci, bring that overlay, bring that overlay, he changed it!
00:14:18.000 Now saying up to 90%.
00:14:21.000 I mean, why not go up, Fauci?
00:14:22.000 So I thought I could nudge us up a bit, so I went to 80-85.
00:14:24.000 Remember when Paul was talking about herd immunity?
00:14:27.000 That's unbelievable.
00:14:28.000 With all due respect, Senator, you don't know what you're talking about.
00:14:31.000 Really?
00:14:32.000 Can kids still catch AIDS from the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Box, Fauci?
00:14:36.000 But I love that he's just like 17.
00:14:37.000 He's like, I don't know, maybe we can negotiate.
00:14:40.000 I'm like, I thought this was science.
00:14:41.000 I didn't think you negotiated with a virus.
00:14:43.000 How about you guys stop, you shut up, the shopping mall opens back up, and I can go to a roly-poly at the food court.
00:14:50.000 My point here is it always starts with something small, and we'll progress here in the show so you start seeing kind of what's going on.
00:14:55.000 So there was another case here, Cheryl Burke, I guess, Dancing with the Stars.
00:14:59.000 Yesterday, we had a list of, I don't know, two dozen celebrities who had breakthrough COVID despite being vaccinated.
00:15:05.000 She now announced that even though she's fully vaccinated, she has the COVID.
00:15:09.000 I warn you, the video is... it's heart-wrenching.
00:15:15.000 Okay, guys, so I have really bad news.
00:15:19.000 Yeah?
00:15:20.000 I am...
00:15:22.000 Positive.
00:15:22.000 Which means I have COVID and I just got the news now and I've been anticipating just waiting around for since seven o'clock this morning.
00:15:33.000 He's about to make the long walk.
00:15:35.000 I just feel like shit to be quite honest.
00:15:40.000 It's so overwhelming because it's Sunday and the show's tomorrow but um yeah I figured I should let you guys know since I've been as open and as real and vulnerable as I could be here.
00:15:58.000 I just hope I didn't spread it.
00:16:05.000 We're talking about the one that has an employee home today with a slight cough and a mild flu that he would take over the normal flu.
00:16:18.000 Anecdotal, of course, in statistical reality.
00:16:21.000 For most people, particularly young people, just to be very very clear, we're at the point, come on, can we all acknowledge this is ridiculous now?
00:16:27.000 It's absolutely, I just, I just She's acting like it's, yeah, an inoperable brain tumor.
00:16:32.000 She's like, I just got the worst news.
00:16:33.000 Before I realize that in my demographic there's a 0.5% handmaid being hospitalized.
00:16:37.000 Okay, look, at a certain point you have to toughen up, sweetheart.
00:16:41.000 Gotta update my will.
00:16:43.000 She's acting like it's an inoperable brain tumor.
00:16:46.000 Yeah, geez lady.
00:16:47.000 She's like, I just got the worst news.
00:16:49.000 It's like you had to be told you were sick.
00:16:52.000 It's like a kid who, you know, scrapes their knee and gets up and is like, oh you're bleeding.
00:16:59.000 But here's the thing, she's vaccinated.
00:17:04.000 You know, Dave, must be one of those breakthrough cases.
00:17:08.000 It's a pandemic, I hear.
00:17:10.000 It's a pandemic.
00:17:11.000 Very rare.
00:17:11.000 It's what I hear.
00:17:12.000 This is something else.
00:17:12.000 If you've read in other news, Pringles is changing their logo for the first time in 20 years.
00:17:18.000 Yeah.
00:17:19.000 Mr. P's new design is more of an emoji style.

00:18:31.000 than the current logo.
00:18:36.000 Do you have the passcode?
00:18:38.000 I don't know.
00:18:39.000 That's great.
00:18:39.000 I don't want to do that story.
00:18:45.000 Sorry, guys.
00:18:45.000 No, we don't.
00:18:46.000 It's okay, Dave.
00:18:47.000 I've been touched.

00:19:08.000 Also, the Android.
00:19:09.000 Yeah, not iTunes.
00:19:10.000 Not iTunes.
00:19:10.000 Just Apple.
00:19:11.000 I still remember when it was iTunes.
00:19:12.000 Podcast.

00:19:31.000 So, hey, right now, hold on one second, before we move on, Millie, General Millie, is on the TV.
00:19:37.000 Again?
00:19:37.000 How General Vanillie?
00:19:40.000 But it looks like dead General Millie, it's just normal General Millie.
00:19:45.000 Yeah, it's just how he looks.
00:19:46.000 Did he put on makeup?
00:19:47.000 No, no, no.
00:19:48.000 Like, he should just be rattling some cupboards.
00:19:52.000 This is his time of year, man.
00:19:53.000 He loves October.
00:19:54.000 I'm a general!
00:19:57.000 Shaking the bedpost.
00:19:59.000 Just say hi.
00:20:00.000 What are all his medals for?
00:20:01.000 Uh, well, you know, I guess he earned them, uh, something or other.
00:20:05.000 For telling your secrets?
00:20:08.000 This is my snitching badge!
00:20:10.000 And this one's for treason.
00:20:15.000 It's a noose!
00:20:18.000 Alright, so look, this was a few days ago and I was reading this.
00:20:22.000 The BBC published this article.
00:20:23.000 Look at the headline.
00:20:23.000 The headline is, in COVID in Wales, a third of positive cases are unvaccinated.
00:20:30.000 Wait, that's a strange way to say two-thirds of positive cases are vaccinated.
00:20:34.000 It really is.
00:20:36.000 They like to pepper up the headline.
00:20:37.000 Wait, the vast majority of cases are vaccinated, you say?
00:20:40.000 Did you hear me, what I said?
00:20:42.000 And by the way, the headline doesn't really make sense.
00:20:44.000 You have to read the article because it goes into more detail, and it actually seems like the numbers may not even be accurate in the title, but it says 45% of cases are among the vaccinated, 20% they don't know, but 80% of hospitalized patients in Wales are vaccinated.
00:21:00.000 What?
00:21:01.000 80% of hospitalized patients are vaccinated.
00:21:04.000 And they'll say, well, it's because most of the population is vaccinated.
00:21:06.000 It doesn't matter!
00:21:08.000 It doesn't matter!
00:21:10.000 You don't talk about that with measles, mumps, rubella.
00:21:12.000 You don't!
00:21:13.000 If the vaccine works, it doesn't matter if 95% of the population is vaccinated and they make up Only 85% of the hospitals!
00:21:22.000 I'm just curious, you just said that one-third were unvaccinated.
00:21:22.000 It sucks!
00:21:25.000 That's confirmed.
00:21:26.000 20% are kind of in the wind, we're not sure.
00:21:28.000 And you're telling me 80%, that's what matters.
00:21:30.000 In the hospital.
00:21:31.000 No, 80% are in the hospital with one-third unvaccinated.
00:21:34.000 So it doesn't matter if you think your entire country is almost vaccinated.
00:21:37.000 They're not, because one-third's not!
00:21:38.000 Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.
00:21:39.000 It does not make any sense.
00:21:40.000 It's terrible.
00:21:41.000 It's just a very interesting way.
00:21:42.000 This is where you have to read articles, and I'll be working on a project to hopefully help people with this.
00:21:46.000 Our links are in sources.
00:21:48.000 They're all available in the description.
00:21:50.000 And look, call me on it.
00:21:51.000 Comment if you see a source and you're like, oh, that's probably not the best source, or it's not right, it's not the best reference.
00:21:55.000 We have a bibliography every show, 40 to 60 links.
00:21:58.000 It's just surprising to me.
00:21:59.000 I was reading it.
00:22:00.000 At first I was like, well, I guess that, wait a second.
00:22:01.000 No, wait, that means, that's just a different way of saying two-thirds, 66% of people in Wales Are vaccinated who have COVID.
00:22:10.000 Yeah, it's just peppering it up to make it sound better than it is.
00:22:13.000 It's just wordplay.
00:22:14.000 It's like 81% of traffic fatalities occur when you're stone-cold sober.
00:22:18.000 Right.
00:22:19.000 Well, hold on.
00:22:21.000 There was 95% of the airplane fuel needed to get Leonard Skinner to their gig.
00:22:26.000 Yeah, 10% of Rihanna's face was completely untouched by Chris Brown.
00:22:26.000 Yes!
00:22:31.000 Robert Wagner, newly single.
00:22:34.000 Almost the entire cast of the Crow attended the film premiere.
00:22:39.000 Almost the entire cast.
00:22:41.000 Almost.
00:22:43.000 Minus one incident, Chris Benoit was an amazing husband and father.
00:22:48.000 The point is, it's minus one.
00:22:50.000 That's the lead here.
00:22:51.000 Saddam Hussein has fully cooperated with the international community since December 30th, 2006.
00:22:57.000 He was great for a while.
00:23:01.000 David Carradine dies doing what he loves.
00:23:03.000 He did!
00:23:04.000 Most of the time.
00:23:09.000 Hey, 11 out of 12 Lakers practice safe sex.
00:23:12.000 Well, okay, that's good.
00:23:14.000 We're on the right track.
00:23:15.000 It's just one third are unvaccinated.
00:23:19.000 The Ambrosia Chocolate Company in Milwaukee says almost all of our employees are overwhelmingly not cannibalistic gay necrophiliacs.
00:23:30.000 They're getting better.
00:23:30.000 Yes!
00:23:32.000 No Dahmer anymore, sorry about the bunnies in the 80s.
00:23:35.000 JFK retires early.
00:23:37.000 The point is with these headlines, you need to know how they're trying to manipulate you.
00:23:43.000 One in 7.6... We're still going.
00:23:45.000 Why not?
00:23:46.000 One in 7.6 billion people get throat cancer from going down on Catharizida Jones.
00:23:52.000 One in 7.6 billion, that's higher than I... That's really just more of an excuse, Mr. Douglas.
00:23:58.000 Some cigars may have been involved.
00:24:00.000 Hey, by the way, no children have accused Michael Jackson of being a sexual rapist pedophile since 2009!
00:24:05.000 That is good.
00:24:09.000 He's got his 11-year pin.
00:24:10.000 Yes, he does.
00:24:13.000 It's on Miley's military jacket.
00:24:17.000 She'd walk into an Alcoholics Anonymous, and be like, I got my nine-month pin.
00:24:21.000 What does that mean?
00:24:22.000 I didn't rape a kid.
00:24:25.000 I just like cores.
00:24:27.000 Yeah, why not?
00:24:28.000 I'm a ghost.
00:24:29.000 I just drank a little wild turkey to drown out the feeling that my dad never loved me.
00:24:34.000 I think we're going to kill you if you're in this group and make it look like an accident.
00:24:40.000 Moonwalk out of here.
00:24:41.000 One third!
00:24:42.000 Wow.
00:24:45.000 That's so awesome.
00:24:47.000 Also, whales, you still haven't apologized for that.
00:24:48.000 More in my head, I'll just tweet later.
00:24:51.000 By the way, Wales still hasn't apologized for that bitch in Fraser.
00:24:54.000 Where did that accent come from?
00:24:55.000 That's just, I don't know what it is, but you still, someone needs to own it.
00:25:00.000 Alright, so this is something else that I want to talk about, really, before we get to John Oliver.
00:25:03.000 This is really scary, and I want to clarify again how the media is framing this.
00:25:08.000 I want you guys to understand out there, look, it's not that the government will always use Their baton to gain power, and they never give it up.
00:25:16.000 Joe Rogan was talking about this.
00:25:17.000 He was right.
00:25:17.000 You caught a lot of flack for it.
00:25:18.000 You don't give up power to the government in the pandemic and get it back.
00:25:22.000 No.
00:25:22.000 Laws typically only grow.
00:25:24.000 The pages get more plentiful.
00:25:26.000 They get longer.
00:25:27.000 Font gets smaller.
00:25:28.000 Unless it's the Green New Deal, then they double-space it.
00:25:30.000 Size 12.
00:25:32.000 Gotta make it five pages.
00:25:34.000 Gotta stretch this out.
00:25:35.000 Some way, somehow.
00:25:36.000 It's a pop-out!
00:25:39.000 You had to get 500 words into 9 pages.
00:25:44.000 She was following the guidelines for her college persuasive essay.
00:25:48.000 That reads like Clifford.
00:25:53.000 I like Clifford.
00:25:54.000 I did like Clifford.
00:25:55.000 He's big and he's red.
00:25:56.000 He's a dog.
00:25:56.000 He doesn't know he's different.
00:25:57.000 It's like the first girl I was with.
00:26:00.000 Big and red.
00:26:02.000 I don't know what that means.
00:26:03.000 That's disgusting.
00:26:05.000 I've never judged you more.
00:26:06.000 Curvy.
00:26:07.000 Curvy.
00:26:07.000 Yesterday the vaccine mandate for New York health care workers went into effect.
00:26:12.000 Now before I get to what How did she get in there?
00:26:15.000 Kathy Hockel? I've only ever read it I've never heard it pronounced because no one voted for her and no one likes
00:26:22.000 her.
00:26:23.000 So it's just like you know congratulations you're an unelected queen.
00:26:27.000 How did she get in there? Was it just they were like he grabbed her ass we should let her be governor?
00:26:33.000 I always wonder like if there's a serial sexual harasser.
00:26:38.000 Like Meryl Streep. You don't think she turned a blind eye to what happened with Harvey Weinstein?
00:26:42.000 No, we know she did.
00:26:42.000 We know she did.
00:26:43.000 It's like this lady, if she was around Governor Cuomo, who was constantly sexually harassing women, you think she didn't know about it?
00:26:50.000 Yeah, of course.
00:26:52.000 They're looking to her like, you know, right?
00:26:53.000 Right?
00:26:54.000 No.
00:26:54.000 So uh...
00:26:55.000 The way she dresses in that pantsuit?
00:26:56.000 You know, it's like she's just using it as protection.
00:26:59.000 A sexual calling card.
00:27:01.000 So she said that the unvaccinated, before we get to her call yesterday about what she's
00:27:06.000 going to do using the military and her executive power to do something unprecedented.
00:27:12.000 I wished we were, but I prayed a lot to God during this time.
00:27:15.000 And you know what?
00:27:15.000 in production, which sort of gives you an idea as to her mindset from a while ago where she said
00:27:20.000 that the unvaccinated are not listening to God. Unelected governor of New York.
00:27:24.000 We are not through this pandemic. I wished we were, but I prayed a lot to God during this time.
00:27:30.000 And you know what? God did answer our prayers. He made the smartest men and women, the scientists,
00:27:37.000 the doctors, the researchers.
00:27:39.000 He made them come up with a vaccine.
00:27:41.000 That is from God to us.
00:27:43.000 And we must say thank you, God.
00:27:46.000 Thank you.
00:27:47.000 And I wear my vaccinated necklace all the time to say I'm vaccinated.
00:27:52.000 All of you.
00:27:53.000 Yes, I know you're vaccinated.
00:27:54.000 You're the smart ones.
00:27:55.000 But you know there's people out there who aren't listening to God and what God wants.
00:27:59.000 You know this.
00:27:59.000 You know who they are.
00:28:00.000 I need you to be my apostle.
00:28:02.000 I need you to go out and talk about it.
00:28:04.000 And say, we owe this to each other.
00:28:05.000 We love each other.
00:28:10.000 Jesus taught us to love one another.
00:28:13.000 How do you show that love?
00:28:15.000 But to care about each other enough to say, please get vaccinated because I love you.
00:28:19.000 I want you to live.
00:28:20.000 I want our kids to be safe when they're in schools.
00:28:22.000 I want you to be safe when you go to a doctor's office or to a hospital.
00:28:26.000 I wear look everybody look at this shows that I'm back you know what we should have one of these for the unvaccinated or maybe even say these like a patch on the arm like a triangle patch on the arm and you know what maybe two triangles we'll put in two triangles and maybe three triangles so creates like a star I see you're vaccinated he went to Jared So let's be clear, there are 72,000 workers in New York who are unvaccinated, okay?
00:28:52.000 Now let's be clear as to why there's a shortage, because this is going to justify her executive action.
00:28:56.000 A lot of hospitals, we've talked about this, they were forced to pause elective procedures.
00:28:59.000 You know, like heart stints, like hip replacements, like heart valve surgery, mammograms, because you can't get those at Planned Parenthood, they've never actually done them, despite what they've tried to tell you, kidney stone removal.
00:29:09.000 Just drink some Dr. Pepper.
00:29:10.000 You'll be fine.
00:29:12.000 So as a result, 1.4 million healthcare workers were laid off.
00:29:15.000 Right?
00:29:15.000 Laid off, furloughed.
00:29:16.000 You know this.
00:29:17.000 Your wife is a nurse.
00:29:18.000 Had their hours cut.
00:29:19.000 There wasn't a staff shortage because of COVID.
00:29:21.000 Let's be very clear.
00:29:22.000 You go, well, how was there a staff shortage when they didn't use that ship in New York?
00:29:25.000 Well, what happened is they said, hey, we can't do any of the elective procedures.
00:29:29.000 So it's just going to be COVID and we don't have enough COVID patients right now.
00:29:33.000 So we're going to furlough you.
00:29:35.000 We are going to lay you off.
00:29:36.000 Just be real.
00:29:37.000 Everyone needs to understand that.
00:29:39.000 All references available on the website.
00:29:41.000 So that sets this up importantly, because there are a lot of healthcare workers, up to one-third, who are unvaccinated, and that should be concerning.
00:29:49.000 One-third of people who work in healthcare, the real heroes, remember, refuse to get the vaccine, and so there will be an even worse shortage starting midnight last night, according to the law going into effect.
00:30:01.000 That's what justifies what the media is praising, but what, to me, is Look, in all seriousness, one of the scariest moments in modern American history.
00:30:11.000 And we'll be nation leading with our mandate, which strikes at midnight tonight when everyone is expected in a hospital in the state of New York or a health care facility to have been vaccinated.
00:30:22.000 I will be signing an executive order to give me the emergency powers necessary to address the shortages where they occur.
00:30:30.000 That's going to allow me to deploy the National Guard who are medically trained.
00:30:35.000 Okay.
00:30:35.000 deploy people who've been retired, who may have had a license lapse, bring in people
00:30:40.000 from elsewhere. That is not my first position, though, my friends. My desire is to have the
00:30:45.000 people who've been out there continue to work in their jobs, working them safely. And to
00:30:50.000 all the other health care workers who are vaccinated, they also deserve to know that
00:30:55.000 the people they're working with will not get them sick.
00:30:58.000 OK, let me be really clear about something here, because the media is trying to paint
00:31:01.000 this as, hey, the unelected governor is sending in help to prevent people from getting sick.
00:31:08.000 No, let's be really clear here.
00:31:09.000 This is a governor abusing her executive power to send in the United States military because she needs to replace nurses who would not comply being forced to take a vaccine with no long-term studies that, by the way, hasn't stopped breakthrough cases.
00:31:30.000 Let's be really clear.
00:31:31.000 That is terrifying.
00:31:33.000 And it starts with things like, oh, well, you know, it doesn't really matter.
00:31:37.000 Why do we want to fight about the mask thing?
00:31:39.000 Why do we want to fight?
00:31:40.000 It's only companies that have 100 employees or more.
00:31:43.000 That doesn't affect me.
00:31:44.000 Sending in the United States military, because health workers, who, by the way, were heroes, apparently not unless they're twerking on TikTok.
00:31:50.000 I don't know the rules.
00:31:50.000 I just called them.
00:31:52.000 Yep.
00:31:52.000 Yep, a year ago.
00:31:53.000 Really quickly, Texas attorney, did you see this Mark Metzger?
00:32:02.000 Oh wow.
00:32:02.000 He was cited for disorderly conduct after he was walking down Galveston Beach dressed as Michael Myers.
00:32:08.000 That's, what the- From Halloween?
00:32:10.000 And it was, uh, during- Say you were wrong, give her the- No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, sorry.
00:32:17.000 Nope, none of that.
00:32:17.000 Nope.
00:32:17.000 Yeah, we don't have to, we don't have to, sorry.
00:32:19.000 Yeah, we gotta go.
00:32:19.000 Sorry Travis.
00:32:20.000 No, that's, you, go!
00:32:22.000 Come on, shoot.
00:32:25.000 Change the locks.
00:32:26.000 Yeah, it's working on it.
00:32:27.000 It just, it can't be 5555 anymore in the past.
00:32:31.000 That's true.
00:32:32.000 Yeah, sorry about that.
00:32:33.000 Yeah, no, that really is my fault.
00:32:34.000 Yeah, it kind of threw us off.
00:32:35.000 Well, we need to be a little, yeah, it threw us off.
00:32:37.000 It's a little weird, like the mic's cut out?
00:32:39.000 I don't know.
00:32:40.000 He broke into my car and was sleeping in it.
00:32:43.000 Oh.
00:32:44.000 How'd it smell, though?
00:32:45.000 He's on the dip again.
00:32:46.000 It smells really good.
00:32:47.000 Yeah.
00:32:48.000 Gotta get him away from Big Chief.
00:32:49.000 Alright, let's see.
00:32:50.000 Speaking of Big Chief, let's see what's going on.
00:32:53.000 Hey, it's the Junk Bond.
00:32:54.000 It's the Junk Muppet from Labyrinth.
00:32:55.000 Let's see, what are they talking about?
00:32:58.000 They were talking about the ability to quarter Black Garrett.
00:33:03.000 What were you pointing to on CNN?
00:33:05.000 Oh, no, I was just pointing at the gym.
00:33:07.000 Oh, okay.
00:33:07.000 I thought we were talking about their song.
00:33:10.000 No, no new updates.
00:33:11.000 Just the junk monster.
00:33:13.000 That freaked me out as a kid.
00:33:15.000 That movie was terrifying.
00:33:17.000 Oh, I went to the Jim Henson experience and I wrote my son and I was going through the labyrinth thing and I was like, this is still terrifying.
00:33:24.000 Still terrifying!
00:33:26.000 They're throwing their heads at me.
00:33:27.000 It's the darkest movie.
00:33:29.000 They kidnap, for those who haven't seen Labyrinth, spoiler alert, in the first ten minutes, they kidnap a baby from its own cradle.
00:33:36.000 Yeah.
00:33:37.000 And David Bowie takes it for some reason.
00:33:39.000 Yeah, David Bowie takes it wearing the most enormous codpiece you've ever seen in your life.
00:33:44.000 And then he's singing about kidnapping.
00:33:46.000 I kidnapped a baby.
00:33:50.000 I'll take your baby and throw him to the stars, Jennifer Connelly.
00:33:53.000 These are spiders from babies.
00:33:56.000 You remind me of the babe that I kidnapped.
00:33:59.000 I want the biggest, I want the biggest card piece you have.
00:34:02.000 Yes!
00:34:04.000 Are you sure this is big enough?
00:34:05.000 I don't think my viewers will believe it.
00:34:09.000 Dance, card piece dance!
00:34:11.000 So, let's go to, speaking of Brits, we'll go to the less favorite, John Oliver.
00:34:16.000 Yeah.
00:34:16.000 And also, he can't claim he banged Mick Jagger.
00:34:19.000 What?
00:34:20.000 Wait, what?
00:34:20.000 Bowie!
00:34:21.000 Bowie did.
00:34:22.000 Oh, okay.
00:34:23.000 Alright.
00:34:23.000 Bowie, come on, it was... I don't know much about David Bowie, alright?
00:34:26.000 I just choose not to put that crap in my head.
00:34:28.000 What, excellent music?
00:34:31.000 No.
00:34:31.000 There's a dumbass sitting to my left.
00:34:35.000 Ground control's a major asshole.
00:34:37.000 Hold on, hold on.
00:34:39.000 Which way is left?
00:34:40.000 He's sitting in that chair.
00:34:42.000 Oh, that's me, okay.
00:34:43.000 And he listens to the most peculiar shit.
00:34:50.000 I see I stand by my claim.
00:34:53.000 All right, well, you're wrong.
00:34:56.000 Well, all right, Ziggy star suck.
00:34:58.000 Yeah.
00:35:00.000 Yeah.
00:35:00.000 Well, I mean, I'll give it to you.
00:35:02.000 If you have the dancing in the street video, you win.
00:35:05.000 But other than that, they're very good.
00:35:07.000 Yeah.
00:35:08.000 Have you ever seen that silent?
00:35:10.000 No.
00:35:10.000 There's a video on YouTube where it's David Bowie and Mick Jagger just doing the video with no music.
00:35:16.000 It's the scariest thing.
00:35:19.000 Terrifying.
00:35:20.000 Well, Labyrinth is terrifying, because you know when you're a kid, right?
00:35:22.000 I don't know about you, but I was afraid of the monsters under the bed.
00:35:24.000 You turn off the light really quickly, and you run and you jump on the bed, because if you're under the covers, it's safe.
00:35:28.000 Only this troupe, this gaggle of satanic muppets show up and steal you from your bed.
00:35:34.000 It's your safe place when you're a kid.
00:35:35.000 And then the junk muppet lady is showing up in the closet, trying to sell you trinkets that no doubt are probably from China, laced with arsenic.
00:35:44.000 Get out of my closet!
00:35:45.000 It's a horrifying film.
00:35:46.000 They don't make them like that, and that's why kids are pansies and we can't do gender reveals, because they don't have films like Labyrinth now.
00:35:52.000 Everything is nerfed.
00:35:53.000 Alright.
00:35:53.000 It's true.
00:35:54.000 Let's move on to John Oliver.
00:35:57.000 Okay.
00:35:59.000 You know what, I think John Oliver, let me be clear, I think John Oliver compared to Seth Meyers, compared to Stephen Colbert, compared to Trevor Noah, Samantha Bee, is funny.
00:36:08.000 He is funny.
00:36:09.000 I agree.
00:36:09.000 And you guys can comment below.
00:36:11.000 I get that he's smug, I get that he's wrong, credit where it's due.
00:36:13.000 There are even some funny bits in this video and I encourage you to go watch the whole thing so you know we're not taking it out of context.
00:36:19.000 But this is a Brit who's now crossed over, right?
00:36:21.000 He's on the other side of the pond over here now, because the only way to be successful is not in, effectively, the semi-quasi-socialist hellhole that is the UK, especially the community.
00:36:29.000 You have to come to the United States, but then he wants to tell us how to run things here.
00:36:32.000 And of course, he comes to the United States and wants to accuse us of being racist.
00:36:38.000 And here's the thing with this one.
00:36:38.000 I'm not super impressed.
00:36:40.000 Uses the most rudimentary arguments against voter ID laws to try and paint them as racist.
00:36:47.000 So I want to go through this video point out sort of the, I guess, intellectual fallacies,
00:36:54.000 flaws that are used point by point.
00:36:55.000 But before that, I want to show you something.
00:36:57.000 This is something you need to understand.
00:36:59.000 John Oliver also, it doesn't, this is where he tips his hand here when he talks about
00:37:04.000 seatbelt laws.
00:37:06.000 He actually thinks that it's ridiculous for a state to not have a seatbelt law.
00:37:10.000 Let's just watch this clip before we get to all the ID stuff.
00:37:13.000 All those states passed laws that make it harder for people to vote.
00:37:16.000 And if anyone is surprised to see New Hampshire up there, let me just remind you, it's a state that's 88% white with a Republican governor and no adult seatbelt law.
00:37:25.000 Sure, they present themselves as charming, but deep down they are basically just Florida with foliage.
00:37:30.000 That is it.
00:37:32.000 Okay, so let me be clear here about something.
00:37:34.000 You know, you had rage against the machine.
00:37:35.000 We've pointed this out.
00:37:36.000 Rock against Bush.
00:37:37.000 Punk rock against the system.
00:37:39.000 But of course, they were against Bush, but then they started campaigning for Obama.
00:37:42.000 Is there anything more machine than campaigning for a president who believes in it?
00:37:45.000 But they say, no, no, we're talking about the socialist system, but my body, my choice, right?
00:37:48.000 We're still rebels.
00:37:49.000 Is there anything less rebellious than supporting the government, forcing you to wear a seatbelt?
00:37:55.000 My body, my choice.
00:37:56.000 Can you at least admit that people who oppose, for example, abortion up until birth, that there can be an argument, even if you haven't looked into the science of fetal development, that it affects someone else, it is another life, it is another DNA sequence, another heartbeat that is autonomous from you.
00:38:11.000 A seatbelt law affects no one else!
00:38:15.000 I want to be clear.
00:38:16.000 You're an idiot if you don't wear a seatbelt law, if you don't wear a seatbelt.
00:38:18.000 I've never ridden my motorcycle without a helmet.
00:38:21.000 Helmet laws are stupid.
00:38:22.000 That is not the role of government.
00:38:23.000 John Oliver, comedy is meant to rebel against the king, right?
00:38:27.000 The court jester.
00:38:28.000 He is saying...
00:38:30.000 Government is daddy.
00:38:31.000 Government is your big brother.
00:38:32.000 Can you imagine Lenny Bruce getting up there smoking a cigarette?
00:38:36.000 Can you believe that there's no seatbelt laws?
00:38:39.000 They're just giving him wards after instead of arresting him.
00:38:42.000 His punchline actually sounded kind of fun.
00:38:44.000 It's like Florida with foliage.
00:38:45.000 I'm like, well that sounds quite nice.
00:38:46.000 That does sound quite nice.
00:38:47.000 But just think about it for a second.
00:38:49.000 Can we all agree, if we're going to say my body, my choice, Seatbelt laws should be the first to go.
00:38:56.000 And you know why that exists?
00:38:57.000 Do you know why seatbelt laws?
00:38:59.000 It's like Florida with foliage!
00:39:01.000 Do you know why it exists?
00:39:04.000 To make the cops more money!
00:39:06.000 So they can pull you over!
00:39:07.000 Do you realize that in certain precincts across this country, you are better off pulling over ten people for a seatbelt infraction than a rapist because you have more civilian interactions and you generate more revenue.
00:39:18.000 Really?
00:39:19.000 Remember?
00:39:19.000 The police that you say are racist and you hate?
00:39:21.000 Hey!
00:39:21.000 Hey!
00:39:21.000 We need a reason to pull over black people.
00:39:23.000 Not saying the police are racist.
00:39:24.000 You said that.
00:39:25.000 Uh-oh!
00:39:26.000 Seatbelt!
00:39:27.000 I was wearing my seatbelt, officer.
00:39:29.000 Not according to me.
00:39:30.000 Can't prove it.
00:39:31.000 Yeah.
00:39:31.000 I couldn't see it.
00:39:33.000 He reached for his buckle.
00:39:34.000 Yeah!
00:39:34.000 Reached for his buckle!
00:39:36.000 Come on, it's a... Terrible.
00:39:37.000 It's a 67, uh... I don't know, cars.
00:39:41.000 You said there's no seatbelt.
00:39:43.000 I know nothing about cars.
00:39:45.000 They have seatbelts.
00:39:45.000 I don't know what cars do they have aside from the Mustang, and that's just because I saw Bullet.
00:39:49.000 Yes.
00:39:50.000 Well, there was the mint green, I can't remember what it was, and my cousin Vinny.
00:39:54.000 Oh, of course.
00:39:55.000 Oh, Buick Skylark!
00:39:56.000 Yeah.
00:39:56.000 Buick Skylark.
00:39:57.000 Yeah, that is a car.
00:39:58.000 Yes, that is a car.
00:40:00.000 It's a Buick Skylark, there are no seatbelts.
00:40:01.000 The point is, you are a quizling.
00:40:04.000 You're a patsy for the higher-ups, John Oliver.
00:40:07.000 And this sets the tone, because it's not about the vaccine, right?
00:40:09.000 They say, well, you're unvaccinated.
00:40:11.000 It could affect me.
00:40:12.000 OK, so that's your line, right?
00:40:14.000 The reason you only support the vaccine mandate is because my actions could negatively affect you.
00:40:18.000 It's not my body, my choice, right?
00:40:19.000 Even though you have the vaccine, you don't trust it.
00:40:21.000 80% of people in Wales, for example, not too far from your home stomping grounds, are vaccinated.
00:40:26.000 But you're saying my decision affects you.
00:40:27.000 OK, how about seatbelt laws?
00:40:30.000 How does that affect you?
00:40:32.000 Hmm.
00:40:33.000 The point is there is no line.
00:40:35.000 No.
00:40:35.000 Okay, so now we'll move on here to one other intellectual fallacy which just shows you how disingenuous John Oliver is where he talks about Donald Trump.
00:40:43.000 To set this up, right, because it's, look at this, people, seatbelt laws, idiots, Donald Trump, warmonger, racist, right?
00:40:48.000 Although one of those things really doesn't fit.
00:40:50.000 See if you can catch it.
00:40:51.000 Some of the biggest efforts to undermine voting rights have been concentrated in the closest states in last year's election, especially these three, where Biden's combined margin of victory was less than 43,000 votes.
00:41:04.000 If they had gone the other way, Trump would still be president right now, meaning COVID would be even worse, we'd be at war with, I don't know, let's say Luxembourg, and we'd all be living under Attorney General MyPillowGuy.
00:41:16.000 I know things are bleak right now, but depressingly, it's also important to remember, this is technically the better timeline.
00:41:23.000 Okay, Donald Trump is the only president who hasn't started a new war since Jimmy Carter, just to be clear, signed four peace deals in the Middle East, which was unprecedented, you know, contrasted with Joe Biden, who, you know, bombed 10 civilians, including seven children, lied about it.
00:41:36.000 So I'm just saying, tomato tomorrow, tomato potato!
00:41:41.000 I'm also a little unsure how COVID would respond to his presidency.
00:41:45.000 I didn't know COVID would be like, oh, that guy's in office.
00:41:47.000 Let's go in and be more effective.
00:41:49.000 Well, I don't know.
00:41:49.000 You love vaccines.
00:41:50.000 Yeah, you have the Trump vaccine.
00:41:52.000 He brought in the vaccine.
00:41:54.000 Well, he makes the claim and the audience just accepts it.
00:41:56.000 COVID would be worse under Donald Trump.
00:41:58.000 There would be a war with Luxembourg and COVID would be even more of a pandemic.
00:42:03.000 Really?
00:42:04.000 Really?
00:42:04.000 Does Luxembourg have an army?
00:42:06.000 No, Luxembourg is basically a tax haven.
00:42:08.000 Luxembourg is the only place in the world with a higher average income than the United States.
00:42:12.000 Well then we should invade and take their money!
00:42:14.000 Yeah, of course!
00:42:15.000 Why aren't we just showing up to their banks?
00:42:17.000 Them and the Cayman Islands.
00:42:18.000 Just swat a few crocodiles out of the lake.
00:42:20.000 Get out of here!
00:42:20.000 You've got your banks!
00:42:21.000 It wouldn't even take that long.
00:42:22.000 Do they even have guns there?
00:42:24.000 I don't think so.
00:42:24.000 Probably not.
00:42:25.000 The Swiss banks.
00:42:26.000 The point is, by two o'clock today the United States should own the Cayman Islands, the Swiss banks, and Luxembourg.
00:42:33.000 Now we'll get to the meat of this argument that voter ID laws, and this is the whole segment, are racist.
00:42:39.000 Because, well, you know what, let's just let John Oliver, the enlightened one, tell us.
00:42:43.000 All these states have put harsher voter ID requirements in place, even though federal court cases found black and Latino voters in states with harsh laws disproportionately lacked access to the types of voter IDs required to vote.
00:42:57.000 Wrong.
00:42:57.000 Wrong. When you do read these bills you quickly find some sh** in plain view.
00:43:03.000 I do find some of it in plain view. I don't even think his black fan is buying this.
00:43:09.000 You are fake news.
00:43:12.000 Well, he needs to cool off in the summer.
00:43:18.000 It used to be blue until the junk bond lady reminded me I had a black one, came out of me closet.
00:43:24.000 So, let's go through this before, it's wrong, he says they disproportionately don't have ID.
00:43:29.000 Let's go through the definition of racism first, to be clear.
00:43:32.000 A belief that race is a fundamental determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race.
00:43:41.000 I don't know that saying, hey, flash your ID so we know you're here legally qualifies.
00:43:48.000 The same rule should apply to white Americans, black Americans, brown Americans, any.
00:43:52.000 Any color.
00:43:53.000 Yeah, and I love how he says the required form of ID.
00:43:56.000 Oh, you mean a driver's license?
00:43:57.000 You mean the thing that you have to have to check out a book or drive a car or, I don't know, get on an airplane?
00:44:01.000 Or an ID card or a passport?
00:44:04.000 Yeah, there's a lot of options here.
00:44:06.000 Which are provided by the government, which I'll get to in a second.
00:44:07.000 Well, and North Dakota was highlighted.
00:44:10.000 Like, oh yeah, all the black people there in North Dakota.
00:44:14.000 There's a couple?
00:44:15.000 Yeah, when I think of North Dakota, I think black people.
00:44:18.000 And when I think of black people in North Dakota, I think they're really getting skunked and being requested to present identification.
00:44:24.000 Yeah, that sucks.
00:44:25.000 It's just, I mean, I'm just looking for the hoods.
00:44:28.000 I'm gonna guess that they all have ID.
00:44:29.000 87% of black people...
00:44:34.000 87% of black people, 90% of Latin Americans have some form of confirmed photo ID.
00:44:40.000 In Georgia, which I believe he brought up, did he bring that up there, Georgia?
00:44:43.000 I don't know.
00:44:44.000 97% of registered voters in Georgia have a valid ID.
00:44:46.000 Voter ID laws increased turnout, though, in Georgia.
00:44:49.000 That's the interesting thing.
00:44:50.000 It increased turnout from 2004 to 2008.
00:44:54.000 140% increase among Hispanic and Latino voters.
00:44:58.000 A 42% increase, since voter ID laws, among black voters, compared to only 8% of whites.
00:45:02.000 Let's be clear, because what they're trying to do is compare it again, say, oh, well, in the pandemic, so many more people came out and voted by mail.
00:45:09.000 Yeah, that's not how you should vote.
00:45:11.000 It's rife with flaws.
00:45:13.000 It was meant to be temporary during a pandemic.
00:45:15.000 Yeah.
00:45:16.000 See a pattern here?
00:45:17.000 Temporary, right?
00:45:18.000 Temporary during a pandemic.
00:45:19.000 We just need to make sure that we can force these vaccines during a pandemic.
00:45:22.000 We just need to make sure that we can release them.
00:45:23.000 Well, we can just release the National Guard here, basically declare martial law under a pandemic.
00:45:27.000 Well, we just need to make sure that we change the entire voter system during the pandemic.
00:45:31.000 And now they want that to be the standard moving forward.
00:45:33.000 Before the pandemic, the voter ID laws disproportionately benefited voters of color.
00:45:40.000 Well, that means it's racist.
00:45:42.000 Yes.
00:45:42.000 Against white people, only 8%.
00:45:43.000 Yeah.
00:45:46.000 Whitey deserve it.
00:45:48.000 By the way, the majority of black Americans say that you should be forced to present ID to vote.
00:45:52.000 Oh.
00:45:53.000 Whitey on the moon.
00:45:55.000 Let's keep in mind too also 72% of black people in New York City are unvaccinated.
00:46:00.000 So are vaccine mandates racist?
00:46:02.000 I just want to know.
00:46:03.000 I just want to understand the rules, right?
00:46:05.000 Governor of New York who's not elected You're the smart ones.
00:46:10.000 The stupid ones.
00:46:11.000 Oh!
00:46:12.000 Do you mean in your state, the largest city in your state, you mean that 72% of black people are dumb because they don't trust you?
00:46:12.000 Hold on a second.
00:46:20.000 A woman who looks like a white caricature from German folklore tales?
00:46:25.000 Yeah, and you're refusing service to those people in restaurants and bars and... It's the new whites only.
00:46:30.000 Wait, so you're just basically backdooring keeping black people out of establishments now?
00:46:36.000 Yeah.
00:46:36.000 Voter ID, disproportionately, up until 2008, all references available, disproportionately in the states they were implemented.
00:46:42.000 Increased black and brown voter turnout, just to be clear.
00:46:45.000 You have implemented vaccine mandates, vaccine passports that disproportionately affect black people, 72% of black people.
00:46:50.000 You're the racist.
00:46:51.000 Also, bonus, what you're doing is unconstitutional.
00:46:55.000 Hey!
00:46:55.000 Next clip.
00:46:57.000 None of this is anything new.
00:46:59.000 Republicans have been pushing restrictive voting laws for years.
00:47:02.000 Back in 2013, North Carolina crafted a law that made it so the only acceptable forms of voter ID were the ones disproportionately used by white people in a bill a federal appeals court later said targeted African-American voters with almost surgical precision, which has to be the second worst context in which to hear that phrase, topped only by surgery.
00:47:23.000 Okay, that's funny.
00:47:25.000 But it's also very wrong.
00:47:28.000 So let's be clear, the states we're talking about, I think it's six states, yes, six states with the strictest ID voter laws, okay?
00:47:35.000 They accept or they issue a form of free voter identification.
00:47:39.000 Please tell me, I don't understand, how is that white?
00:47:43.000 First off, how is a driver's license white?
00:47:46.000 And by the way, the reason that they would say it's white is because disproportionately in places like New York City, where a lot of people of color are unvaccinated, they often use public transit.
00:47:55.000 However, across the country, where they don't live in huge cities, Black people.
00:48:01.000 A driver's license isn't very white.
00:48:02.000 I would even argue it's not even very white to ask for a driver's license in Harlem.
00:48:07.000 I bought a 32 ounce because I couldn't find a 41 time in Harlem when I went to Dinosaur Barbecue.
00:48:11.000 Guess what?
00:48:11.000 They asked for my ID.
00:48:13.000 And I was surrounded by black people.
00:48:15.000 Yeah, you have to have a license to be able to drink.
00:48:18.000 They looked angry with me.
00:48:21.000 Shouldn't wear flip-flops.
00:48:22.000 Well, white people do get a white license.
00:48:26.000 I don't know if you guys forget that.
00:48:29.000 So a driver's license is racist, and so is free ID that anyone can get from the government.
00:48:35.000 The point here is not to burden people with costs.
00:48:37.000 It's silly.
00:48:38.000 If you know what it costs to get ID, it's a non-argument.
00:48:41.000 There's also free ID from the government.
00:48:44.000 It is very clear the intent here, just to make sure that, like you said, We're saying the same thing here.
00:48:49.000 Talking about the margin of error, you talked about Arizona, Wisconsin, right?
00:48:53.000 42,000, I think, votes, he said.
00:48:55.000 And we're saying the exact same thing!
00:48:56.000 We're going, yeah, absolutely!
00:48:57.000 You don't have voting requirements that are strict enough to make sure that illegal immigrants don't vote.
00:49:02.000 That steals the vote away from a legal citizen, including, by the way, a black American citizen.
00:49:06.000 That's what the majority of black Americans support voter ID laws.
00:49:09.000 Let's be clear about this.
00:49:11.000 Let's go on to the next clip where now he makes the argument that because of uneven distribution, this is the old, right, this is the old not equality, equity argument means that it's some kind of discrimination.
00:49:22.000 Brenovich versus DNC essentially found that even if a voting restriction has a discriminatory impact, that in itself doesn't necessarily violate the Voting Rights Act.
00:49:33.000 Those two decisions basically made it easier for some states to pass discriminatory laws, while at the same time making it much harder for anyone to challenge them.
00:49:43.000 Okay, is anyone buying this shit?
00:49:44.000 Can you just comment below?
00:49:46.000 Is anyone buying this?
00:49:48.000 Like, I will watch and go, oh, that's a pretty good argument.
00:49:48.000 Is this convincing?
00:49:50.000 You can hear it from someone.
00:49:51.000 Someone like a Noam Chomsky, right, sometimes.
00:49:53.000 Sometimes even someone like a Rachel Maddow.
00:49:54.000 I watch it and I'm like, holy, okay, how would I argue against that?
00:49:57.000 Not this!
00:50:01.000 These decisions, and therefore there are some more black people who don't have votes.
00:50:05.000 Uh, court case which I don't understand.
00:50:09.000 Uh, yeah!
00:50:11.000 But he cited it.
00:50:12.000 So that was nice of him.
00:50:13.000 The first court case was saying that you didn't have to run your laws by the federal government.
00:50:16.000 That was the one he didn't cover in the clip that we showed there.
00:50:18.000 He covered it just a little bit more.
00:50:19.000 Which, by the way, Democrats actively support because they don't want some kind of federal statute when it comes to voting laws.
00:50:23.000 Let's be really clear because that's been proposed by some conservatives, which I oppose.
00:50:26.000 Yeah, but he didn't even get into that, and then the comment that he makes is like, even if it has a disproportionate effect, okay, John Oliver, the only thing you're focusing on is expanding the number of people voting, which is not all bad, but here's the problem.
00:50:37.000 You want to make sure it's secure first.
00:50:39.000 Yes.
00:50:39.000 That's what you have to do first.
00:50:41.000 I want people to vote, I just don't want people who aren't American people to vote.
00:50:48.000 You know, like Russians, like you said in 2016.
00:50:50.000 Or Canadians, for four years straight.
00:50:52.000 I think anyone should vote.
00:50:54.000 It's a human right.
00:50:56.000 No people...
00:50:57.000 Are illegal.
00:50:58.000 Wait, we're talking about voting.
00:50:59.000 Sorry, I forgot my catchphrase!
00:51:02.000 Some people are illegal.
00:51:04.000 It's Trevor Noah's whole thing.
00:51:06.000 Yes, yes!
00:51:08.000 By the way, again, going back to the vast majority of black Americans support some kind of voter ID law, okay?
00:51:12.000 So they disagree with you.
00:51:13.000 This is another example of a white person, of a white person, a very white person, saying that they speak for black people.
00:51:19.000 You don't speak for black people.
00:51:20.000 Listen, black people don't want voter ID!
00:51:23.000 It's just some guy going, hey!
00:51:25.000 Shut the fuck up!
00:51:26.000 Hey, they don't want to!
00:51:28.000 They think it's racist!
00:51:29.000 Amen!
00:51:31.000 No.
00:51:32.000 I'm just so tired of white people.
00:51:33.000 Red coat's on, man!
00:51:35.000 Seriously, they don't agree with you!
00:51:37.000 They don't.
00:51:38.000 But he speaks for them, Stephen, so they have to.
00:51:39.000 Otherwise, they ain't black.
00:51:40.000 Can I say this?
00:51:41.000 Anyone here know about the tension between the black community and Latino Americans?
00:51:46.000 Do people know about that?
00:51:47.000 That black Americans aren't really thrilled with illegal immigration?
00:51:51.000 For them, again, if this is a big reason that record numbers of black people voted for Donald Trump because it affects them directly as it results to employment?
00:51:58.000 So you're probably not speaking for the Mr. Liverpool.
00:52:00.000 Alright, here's another one where he talks about how Republicans are fear-mongering because we haven't seen that through this clip in Pushing Voter ID Laws.
00:52:07.000 I will say, despite the fact state and local officials found the last election to be the most secure in American history, the truth is many Republicans don't trust the system.
00:52:18.000 But the reason for that might be that people like Dan Patrick spent all of last year calling voting by mail a scam by Democrats to steal the election and saying shit like this.
00:52:29.000 Look, when you have an opportunity to steal a vote, the Democrats will take advantage of it.
00:52:34.000 You can swing the balance easily, Ed.
00:52:36.000 I could give you 10 scenarios, but I won't because I don't want to give anyone ideas how you could easily steal thousands of votes.
00:52:42.000 Oh, come on, Dan.
00:52:44.000 I mean, I don't really care what Dan Patrick says.
00:52:47.000 It was Dan Patrick or Danica Patrick.
00:52:47.000 I don't even get that one.
00:52:49.000 Well.
00:52:51.000 Something about cars with her, right?
00:52:52.000 Yeah, I don't know.
00:52:54.000 Not a lot of winning, but a lot of driving.
00:52:56.000 Did she drive a Scarlacc?
00:52:57.000 She was good, though.
00:52:58.000 Yes.
00:52:58.000 Okay.
00:52:59.000 Buick.
00:52:59.000 Buick, yeah.
00:53:00.000 I'm in the loop.
00:53:02.000 So, he says, it's the most secure in American history.
00:53:05.000 Well, we can just say, I can say things, too.
00:53:07.000 Like, I can say you speak for black people.
00:53:09.000 It doesn't mean it's right!
00:53:11.000 And let's be clear, that was not what many Democrats were saying, right?
00:53:15.000 Who?
00:53:15.000 Amy Klobuchar, Elizabeth Warren, Jimmy Carter?
00:53:17.000 They all warned about the fact that it was one of the greatest national security threats to our election.
00:53:22.000 And even Norm Macdonald, we talked about this.
00:53:23.000 Remember, he nailed it.
00:53:24.000 He was on a show and he said, we ran the clip.
00:53:27.000 I think you can find it on CrossFit.
00:53:28.000 He said, of course, you know, when Donald Trump talked about Democrats rigging the election in 2016, I said, there was no way that could happen.
00:53:34.000 But of course, you're saying the exact opposite now.
00:53:37.000 Exactly!
00:53:38.000 Really?
00:53:38.000 It was the most secure in American history?
00:53:39.000 So for some reason, we believe the left, who were saying 2016 was rigged, the Russians, $10,000 in Facebook ads.
00:53:45.000 Okay, we get it.
00:53:48.000 They say, when we take the exact same parameters that we had in 2016, increase them to unprecedented voting by mail, however, well, we've smoothed over the wrinkles.
00:53:58.000 By the way, you're inferring that every other election previously held had some degree of insecurity to it.
00:54:05.000 More so than this one!
00:54:07.000 Even, of course, they always say that about elections that they don't remember.
00:54:09.000 George Bush with Florida?
00:54:10.000 Yeah.
00:54:11.000 People don't realize this about Florida.
00:54:12.000 No, no.
00:54:13.000 Al Gore wanted to count three counties in Florida in the recount.
00:54:16.000 George Bush was like, well, how about you count the whole state?
00:54:18.000 He was like, no, no, no, no, no, let's just count three counties.
00:54:20.000 No, just three.
00:54:21.000 Go back to your Swedish masseuse, Al, and your seat at Apple.
00:54:24.000 The point is, they always complain about elections they don't win.
00:54:27.000 Case in point, Hillary Clinton, I think this is in 2018?
00:54:30.000 Yes.
00:54:31.000 Talking about the election before the most secure in history.
00:54:34.000 Some tax experts in Silicon Valley with whom I have met who say that maybe what they'll do this next time is to really disrupt the actual election.
00:54:46.000 Shut down the servers that you send results to.
00:54:50.000 Interfere with the operation of voting machines because still too many of them are linked to the internet.
00:54:57.000 So we are still very vulnerable.
00:55:00.000 Yeah, we'll go right back to that because that is actually, here's the thing, at first you're like, oh, Hillary.
00:55:05.000 Stab her with a diazepam pen.
00:55:07.000 Like the guy in 310 to Yuma.
00:55:09.000 Gonna hang me in the morning.
00:55:09.000 The point is, stops the seizures.
00:55:12.000 Then she was right!
00:55:14.000 There were machines hooked up to the internet!
00:55:17.000 Oh, what?
00:55:18.000 I was told that's not possible by the guy.
00:55:19.000 It's not possible, I know, because you're listening to the Brit.
00:55:21.000 What?
00:55:23.000 You don't listen to him.
00:55:23.000 He's the most secure... Most secure election in history.
00:55:27.000 81 million votes.
00:55:28.000 There's no discrepancy.
00:55:29.000 No, and breakthrough cases are rare, Dave.
00:55:34.000 I understand that it's a pandemic.
00:55:36.000 It's a pandemic, the breakthrough cases, but very rare.
00:55:38.000 Both things are true.
00:55:41.000 Uh, real quick.
00:55:42.000 What?
00:55:42.000 Check that out.
00:55:43.000 So this is kind of big news right now.
00:55:45.000 This actually goes against exactly what Joe Biden was saying about leaving troops.
00:55:48.000 It says that his generals were telling him to actually leave some troops behind.
00:55:52.000 Oh, really?
00:55:53.000 Yeah.
00:55:53.000 You think John Goodman's gonna play him in the movie?
00:55:55.000 Well, he's gonna have to drop a few and also paint his face gray.
00:55:59.000 He's gonna have to use, like, a charcoal lens filter.
00:56:02.000 No, Goodman's, uh, he's lost some weight.
00:56:04.000 Oh, has he?
00:56:04.000 Yeah, I guess when you sell out the star of the show that broke you, you drop a few pounds.
00:56:09.000 That makes sense.
00:56:11.000 That's just his soul leaving his body.
00:56:12.000 I think that's gonna be kind of a big deal as we keep going.
00:56:14.000 Yeah, let's go back to it.
00:56:16.000 Now, let's go back to John Oliver.
00:56:17.000 We have to kind of clip along.
00:56:19.000 Sorry.
00:56:19.000 No, no, don't worry.
00:56:20.000 I want you to come in.
00:56:20.000 I want to hear more of this just riveting...
00:56:24.000 I want to pour more bleach in my eyes, sir.
00:56:27.000 Stay awake, Dave.
00:56:28.000 Astonishing.
00:56:28.000 I'm awake.
00:56:29.000 Republican, no, it's tough for all of us here, but this is, we need, look, and I want you to have all the references available in the link below.
00:56:36.000 Link below.
00:56:36.000 You also have the tickets to Dave's show on October 1st.
00:56:40.000 Here he makes the next claim that Republicans use baseless claims of voter fraud, and of course that's not true.
00:56:46.000 One of them involves the computers being hooked up, the systems being hooked up to the internet, as Hillary Clinton specified.
00:56:51.000 But you know, let's let John Oliver make his argument.
00:56:53.000 And local election supervisors themselves will tell you that these bills make no sense.
00:56:58.000 The Florida Supervisors of Elections strongly opposed their state's new bill, with one Republican supervisor telling a reporter, it's stupid, okay?
00:57:05.000 It was a solution looking for a problem.
00:57:08.000 but it's actually one step worse than that because these are solutions to problems that have been
00:57:13.000 deliberately and strategically manufactured. And it's pretty obvious here use bullsh** claims to
00:57:19.000 stir up baseless fear to pass unnecessary restrictions targeting particular groups.
00:57:25.000 Yeah because you can't stand unnecessary restrictions Mr.
00:57:28.000 Seatbelt Law. Unbelievable.
00:57:31.000 That's like saying, hey, don't put the plexiglass up that's bulletproof in the bank.
00:57:34.000 This bank has never been robbed before.
00:57:36.000 This is a problem that doesn't exist.
00:57:37.000 Honey, don't carry a gun because you've never been raped before.
00:57:40.000 Don't install a security system in your house because we've never had anybody break into this house before.
00:57:45.000 It's not like these things haven't happened in history.
00:57:47.000 So John Oliver saying this is a problem or a solution looking for a problem, you're wrong.
00:57:52.000 It isn't.
00:57:53.000 You protect against problems that you know are possible.
00:57:55.000 Okay?
00:57:56.000 That's a very good point.
00:57:57.000 Only one fatal flaw in your argument.
00:57:58.000 A little angry.
00:57:59.000 All those things actually happened.
00:58:01.000 Yeah, the bank was robbed, the woman was raped, and the house got broken into.
00:58:03.000 Georgia!
00:58:04.000 Their Secretary of State, Brad Rassenberger, our favorite, he said that some 1,000 residents voted twice in the state's 2020 June primary.
00:58:11.000 So let's be clear, these are things before the election.
00:58:13.000 I'm giving you some examples before this election, because we're not allowed to talk about this election.
00:58:16.000 Safest, most secure in history, right?
00:58:17.000 We all agree on that.
00:58:18.000 Happened in New Jersey as well.
00:58:19.000 In 2020, a judge ruled and ordered a new election after a city councilman was charged with fraud.
00:58:26.000 In 2019, a new election was held in North Carolina's 9th district due to abnormalities in the absentee vote totals and allegations of ballot harvesting.
00:58:35.000 I'm not talking about anything in the most secure election in history.
00:58:39.000 We'll get to the Arizona audit in a second.
00:58:40.000 Come at me, bro!
00:58:41.000 But these are all things that happened before.
00:58:43.000 Clark County, Nevada.
00:58:43.000 A local election of just 153,000 votes was thrown out due to a large number of discrepancies.
00:58:49.000 153,000 votes?
00:58:51.000 Well, I think that's what the K means after 156.
00:58:52.000 Those are good reasons.
00:58:54.000 What was the discrepancy?
00:58:55.000 Trump was elected on it?
00:58:56.000 Yeah.
00:58:57.000 This isn't going to work.
00:58:58.000 People are morons.
00:58:58.000 That's an error.
00:58:59.000 Oh, this one?
00:59:00.000 Ah, trash.
00:59:01.000 Trash.
00:59:02.000 Trash.
00:59:03.000 By the way, in California during the primary of the election, more than 100,000 mail-in ballots were rejected.
00:59:09.000 What?
00:59:10.000 Didn't happen in the general election, though.
00:59:12.000 No.
00:59:13.000 Is that even possible?
00:59:14.000 I think it was 27,000 rejected because the signatures didn't even match the voter, or there was no signature at all.
00:59:19.000 Well, let's go to our other favorite state, New York.
00:59:21.000 Six weeks after June 2020 election, two congressional seats still had not been decided.
00:59:26.000 These guys are efficient and good, plus over 250,000 voters in New York.
00:59:31.000 Could be illegal or using false social security numbers.
00:59:33.000 Okay, well let's be careful with that because now we're going through all the problems that could lead up to the most safe and secure election.
00:59:38.000 We wouldn't want to talk about that.
00:59:39.000 They fixed it all.
00:59:40.000 But at least 50,000 of those illegals lived next door to me in Harlem.
00:59:45.000 Yes.
00:59:46.000 I mean one apartment.
00:59:48.000 And sold you sombreros for Taco Tuesday until John Oliver said, that's offensive!
00:59:52.000 Yep, they did.
00:59:53.000 It was a nacho sombrero.
00:59:54.000 Where'd he put the tacos?
00:59:57.000 Are you wearing a poncho and a sombrero?
00:59:59.000 That's cultural appropriation!
01:00:01.000 Who do you think sold it to me, you limey?
01:00:04.000 So is you pretending to be American.
01:00:07.000 Every time I've purchased a sombrero, and I've purchased quite a few.
01:00:10.000 I've done it my day.
01:00:11.000 It has been sold to me by a Mexican.
01:00:15.000 Well I see him, you know, in Texas wearing sun sombrero hats when they're working outside.
01:00:22.000 That's from the SkyMall catalog.
01:00:23.000 That is, yeah.
01:00:24.000 From the Jay Peterman.
01:00:27.000 The very sombrero he had tried on.
01:00:30.000 Yes!
01:00:31.000 Elaine!
01:00:32.000 I find myself in the rainy street.
01:00:35.000 All right.
01:00:36.000 These are the stories, Elaine Sombreros.
01:00:39.000 As I fall under the spell of Now he goes on to say that the Arizona audit, and this is something that's, they're banking on you not looking at the audit.
01:00:50.000 And I want to be very clear, the only things that I will talk about in this audit are things that can be found in the report, information publicly available.
01:00:57.000 I guess it didn't show up at Slate and Salon, which are sources that John Oliver uses unironically, but he goes on to just claim that the Arizona audit Show no issue.
01:01:06.000 Just look what happened this week!
01:01:09.000 The nonsense audit in Arizona came to a humiliating conclusion that failed to show yet again that Trump was cheated of victory, but its organizers still recommended the legislature tighten up the election process to provide additional certainty going forward.
01:01:24.000 Because of course they f***ing did!
01:01:26.000 It's all a shameless attempt to get to the same place.
01:01:30.000 Okay, so let's be clear.
01:01:31.000 The leftist media is saying that the recount, and by the way, I know that people, ooh, we can't talk about this.
01:01:35.000 No, we should be able to talk about the report.
01:01:37.000 It was on the news, and the left doesn't want you to read the report.
01:01:41.000 It's like, one third, one third of Wales COVID patients are unvaccinated.
01:01:47.000 Wait, what happened to the two thirds?
01:01:49.000 Don't do that.
01:01:49.000 Don't think about it.
01:01:50.000 They made a recommendation, but they couldn't officially change the vote.
01:01:54.000 However, right?
01:01:57.000 It didn't match the 2020 numbers, let's be really clear.
01:02:01.000 57,000 ballots had potential issues.
01:02:03.000 Wow.
01:02:04.000 So let's go through some of this to be really clear.
01:02:05.000 Is that fewer or more than Donald Trump lost by?
01:02:08.000 Significantly more than the margin of error.
01:02:09.000 I just needed to make sure.
01:02:10.000 Significantly more than the margin of error.
01:02:12.000 But again, a big reason is they can't, well, we can't confirm exactly what these discrepancies are because why?
01:02:17.000 Well, think about it.
01:02:18.000 Democrats sued to stop the audit.
01:02:20.000 So that was a little bit of a roadblock.
01:02:21.000 Right.
01:02:21.000 That's a little weird.
01:02:22.000 Why would you do that?
01:02:22.000 The Maricopa County Election Board and Dominion refused subpoenas.
01:02:27.000 Oh, so.
01:02:28.000 Things like envelopes with signatures for mail-in ballots, routers, passwords, login information.
01:02:31.000 Let me ask you this.
01:02:32.000 Could you refuse a subpoena?
01:02:34.000 You've done some time.
01:02:35.000 Could you refuse a subpoena?
01:02:37.000 Subpoena?
01:02:37.000 Oh, so subpoena.
01:02:38.000 Yeah, we're off the flue.
01:02:40.000 Sorry, I heard it differently.
01:02:42.000 No and no.
01:02:43.000 No, no.
01:02:43.000 But they don't I don't play by the rules.
01:02:46.000 I didn't know I could do it.
01:02:46.000 When Dominion did that, I thought, wait, you can do that?
01:02:49.000 It's like, all right, subpoena, you have to give her this information, you have to give her what?
01:02:51.000 Like, well, routers, passwords, logins to make sure that none of these machines were connected to the internet, right, like Hillary Clinton talked about?
01:02:57.000 And Dominion just goes, no.
01:03:00.000 You can do that?
01:03:00.000 Okay.
01:03:01.000 No, no, no.
01:03:02.000 They can do that.
01:03:04.000 So, 239,000 ballot images were corrupted files entered after November 1st, 2020.
01:03:10.000 This is in the report.
01:03:12.000 So half of the images after November 1st are corrupted.
01:03:16.000 That's insane.
01:03:18.000 21,273 scanned ballot images are missing.
01:03:22.000 Wait a minute.
01:03:22.000 Just missing.
01:03:23.000 Hey, Dominion, can you tell us why these are missing?
01:03:26.000 We dropped them off in Detroit?
01:03:30.000 That's a real wet wagon!
01:03:33.000 So what is it?
01:03:33.000 You can't confirm the... So what happens is they say, look, you have these discrepancies, but you can't confirm the totals in the voting machines.
01:03:40.000 You can't confirm the scammed images.
01:03:42.000 You can't confirm the physical paper ballots.
01:03:44.000 This is... There's no way to make that argument.
01:03:47.000 That's incredible.
01:03:48.000 It means you can never actually fully audit an election and come to any kind of understanding if anything happened.
01:03:53.000 It's a bad system.
01:03:54.000 And machines have been... There's this... What was it called?
01:03:57.000 Kill... Kill Chain!
01:03:59.000 On HBO, to be really clear.
01:04:01.000 There's a, before the 2020 election, it was Kill Chain, and this guy talked about how elections could be easily hacked, how insecure they are.
01:04:07.000 He didn't know what he was making, because now he's a liberal, but he actually hacked the Georgia voting machines in real time.
01:04:13.000 You can watch him do it.
01:04:14.000 He went to like this, this whatever, NerdCon thing where these computer hackers hack it and say, oh yeah, it's really easy, I just switch these vote totals.
01:04:19.000 How?
01:04:20.000 The machines are connected to the internet, intermittently.
01:04:23.000 And he proved that.
01:04:25.000 That's something that, of course, happened this election.
01:04:27.000 Well, they're never connected to the internet.
01:04:28.000 Well, yes, they are.
01:04:29.000 So, this is something that's relevant.
01:04:30.000 We're not saying that you're going to find 57,000 votes that all read, you know, Hillary Clinton.
01:04:36.000 We're just saying that there's no way to know when you refuse subpoenas.
01:04:39.000 There's no way to know when files are corrupted.
01:04:41.000 There's no way to know when you have these discrepancies.
01:04:43.000 And they just say, well, we're not going to give you the info.
01:04:45.000 No logins, no router info, passwords, handing over computers.
01:04:48.000 Nothing.
01:04:48.000 And you know what he also did?
01:04:50.000 Go and watch this documentary.
01:04:51.000 It's fascinating.
01:04:52.000 He took a card.
01:04:53.000 He hacked a card.
01:04:54.000 What, the kill chain?
01:04:55.000 Yeah, kill chain.
01:04:56.000 Put the card in the machine and then said, hey, go vote and tell me what you voted.
01:04:59.000 He flipped all of the votes by having that card entered first.
01:05:02.000 Right.
01:05:02.000 He literally was able to do that live on camera to a voting board to show them how much they had a problem.
01:05:08.000 It was this Swedish guy.
01:05:09.000 Was he Swedish or he was Norwegian?
01:05:10.000 Something like that.
01:05:11.000 Something like that.
01:05:12.000 One of those countries, Nordic, and he was, elections are not safe, they're very easy to hack, and look, I hacked Georgia, and look, I hacked this election and it was connected to the internet in this car, and you're like, oh, 2020, or whatever, it's safe, you know.
01:05:26.000 You don't have to think about it.
01:05:28.000 And then HBO, it's like, they couldn't be faster in removing it from Suggestive.
01:05:33.000 Oh, I know, right?
01:05:33.000 Oh, I'm sure, yeah.
01:05:34.000 It was like the top three documentaries for a long time, and then it's like, whoop, nope, not anymore.
01:05:38.000 Do you want to watch Girls?
01:05:41.000 No!
01:05:42.000 Seth Meyers?
01:05:43.000 I'd rather watch David Bowie's copy.
01:05:46.000 Lena Dunham.
01:05:46.000 How does so much pretty get in one person?
01:05:50.000 Well, she just made one man very lucky.
01:05:53.000 She just got married.
01:05:54.000 Oh, did she really?
01:05:55.000 Please.
01:05:55.000 She's off the market.
01:05:59.000 Really?
01:06:00.000 Yes, she's unavailable.
01:06:01.000 I know.
01:06:02.000 Well.
01:06:04.000 There goes my plan.
01:06:06.000 Foiled yet again.
01:06:07.000 Plan to loiter around Talbots.
01:06:09.000 Plan to walk outside and say, put your clothes on.
01:06:14.000 Ruining swimming for everyone.
01:06:19.000 My kid just threw up.
01:06:21.000 We'll get back to the buoyancy issue.
01:06:28.000 Here's his next point.
01:06:30.000 We have to end the filibuster.
01:06:31.000 What does it have to do with?
01:06:32.000 Alright, let's hear his argument.
01:06:34.000 Mitch McConnell has announced that he will filibuster any attempt to get either of those acts passed.
01:06:39.000 So, if we want to protect the ballot, Which we absolutely should.
01:06:44.000 We need to end the filibuster.
01:06:47.000 Did he just say he wants to protect the ballots?
01:06:49.000 He did.
01:06:50.000 You sure want people to have identification.
01:06:55.000 Okay, they just want to do away with the filibuster to ram through any unconstitution.
01:07:00.000 You know, the kind of crap that goes through in your country.
01:07:02.000 The kind of crap that goes through in Australia.
01:07:04.000 Historically, Democrats have loved the filibuster.
01:07:08.000 They use the filibuster longer than anyone in history.
01:07:11.000 Why?
01:07:12.000 To continually oppose the Civil Rights Act that was pushed and voted on by Republicans.
01:07:19.000 60 days?
01:07:20.000 60 day filibustering.
01:07:22.000 Very passionate about that.
01:07:23.000 You had Robert Byrd, who was fourth in line for the presidency and used the n-word on live television three times in a row in 2004.
01:07:30.000 Oh boy.
01:07:32.000 Guy had clandental and a company car.
01:07:35.000 And then there's Strom Thurmond, who people say, look, oh, this is the big switch.
01:07:38.000 So Democrat at the time, Strom Thurmond, he holds the record for longest filibuster in history, I believe the second is Robert Byrd, both against the Civil Rights Act, okay?
01:07:46.000 It was for 24 hours and 18 minutes.
01:07:50.000 Wow.
01:07:51.000 That's a long time.
01:07:52.000 And then you have, yeah, Robert Byrd here, 14 hours.
01:07:55.000 Jeez.
01:07:57.000 14 hours.
01:07:57.000 They really didn't want black people to vote.
01:08:01.000 Robert Byrd.
01:08:02.000 He went a day without taking a seat, without using the restroom, and without eating food or drinking water to make sure black people couldn't vote.
01:08:10.000 Yes, and to be clear, this is something, too, that people often use.
01:08:13.000 They go, well, actually, the party switched.
01:08:15.000 Really?
01:08:15.000 Because Robert Byrd's still a Democrat.
01:08:16.000 They go, oh, there are a lot of examples.
01:08:18.000 OK, name me one.
01:08:18.000 You're going to say Strom Thurmond?
01:08:19.000 I bet you're going to say Strom Thurmond.
01:08:20.000 They go, oh, Strom Thurmond, this is something they don't tell you.
01:08:23.000 Strom Thurmond became a Republican when he developed a relationship with God and realized that he was wrong about his racist ways.
01:08:30.000 And he was actually the first senator in the South to actually hire black aides, put people into his senatorial equivalent of a cabinet.
01:08:38.000 Well, that's good.
01:08:39.000 So when you look at it, voting against the Civil Rights Act as a Democrat, very racist as a Democrat, then there's the flash of genius moment, the conversion, Republican starts hiring black people.
01:08:47.000 I'm sure his pet names for them weren't the nicest, but baby steps.
01:08:51.000 That's true.
01:08:52.000 And he didn't like them near his pool.
01:08:54.000 That was a big thing for him.
01:08:55.000 As a Democrat.
01:08:56.000 As a Democrat.
01:08:57.000 We need to be clear about it.
01:08:58.000 Because people just go, oh he switched.
01:08:58.000 What's the only one they can point to?
01:09:00.000 Yeah.
01:09:01.000 He became a better person when he switched.
01:09:03.000 That's the whole point.
01:09:04.000 Ebenezer Scrooge felt as light as a feather.
01:09:07.000 Mary's a schoolboy.
01:09:08.000 The ending matters!
01:09:10.000 Okay.
01:09:13.000 Then you have in 2010, Bernie Sanders, he filibustered a bipartisan tax cut deal for eight and a half hours.
01:09:18.000 Well, he hates it if you get to spend your own money.
01:09:20.000 They just, look, they want you all to think that there's fraud where there is no fraud, and they want you to believe that the filibuster is some kind of Republican game of mind control, just like the hippies who believe the same thing about deodorant, when the fact is, they're the ones who used it the most, they used it for the most amount of time, the longest amounts of time.
01:09:37.000 Yeah, and you want the filibuster to stay around.
01:09:40.000 You do not want things going through on a 51-49 vote that are this consequential, okay?
01:09:45.000 You want it both ways.
01:09:46.000 Republicans, you don't want to get rid of it.
01:09:48.000 Even when we were in power, we shouldn't have been talking about getting rid of it at all, right?
01:09:51.000 You want that there to make sure you don't get run roughshod over because everybody votes party line now.
01:09:55.000 It sucks, okay?
01:09:57.000 Don't say to get rid of it.
01:09:58.000 I don't think hippies use soap.
01:10:00.000 No, they don't.
01:10:01.000 It's a government form of mind control, bruh.
01:10:03.000 Soap is?
01:10:03.000 Use the crystal deodorant.
01:10:05.000 What?
01:10:05.000 The crystal stick deodorant.
01:10:06.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:10:07.000 MKUltra, man.
01:10:07.000 Gotta wet it before.
01:10:09.000 Alright.
01:10:12.000 I can't stand them.
01:10:13.000 Long hair.
01:10:14.000 They're in power now.
01:10:14.000 No one liked hippies, by the way.
01:10:16.000 The 70s and 60s were not nearly as filthy as people believe when they look back.
01:10:19.000 It's just the media had a love, a romantic infatuation with hippies.
01:10:24.000 Most Americans were tired of them, thought they were filthy, disgusting, and wanted to go back to class.
01:10:27.000 Just the media.
01:10:28.000 It was Haydash, Berry, and Woodstock.
01:10:30.000 Those were your hippies.
01:10:30.000 Yeah, those were your hippies.
01:10:31.000 And by the way, most people were like, ugh, they're screwing in the mud.
01:10:34.000 Ooh, the golden years!
01:10:36.000 No, look, most Americans...
01:10:38.000 We're being productive.
01:10:40.000 Yeah.
01:10:40.000 You were screwing in the mud.
01:10:42.000 In a field and you didn't even bring food.
01:10:45.000 We have to have us bring it in for you.
01:10:47.000 Mushrooms.
01:10:49.000 Our generation of Woodstock 99 was like, hey, let's set this on fire.
01:10:54.000 Let's destroy everything.
01:10:55.000 It's really not all that different.
01:10:57.000 Just breaking laws.
01:10:59.000 There were a lot of rape at the original Woodstock that people didn't want to talk about.
01:11:02.000 Me too.
01:11:03.000 Sexual liberation.
01:11:04.000 What do you think happens when you're all naked in the mud and on drugs?
01:11:08.000 Now you're surrounded by gentlemen.
01:11:10.000 The best concert ever, that's what happened, Stephen.
01:11:12.000 Yeah, the best concert ever.
01:11:13.000 I just tell my uncles to stop.
01:11:17.000 Here's another where he uses John Oliver, uh, 2018, what, uh, Commission on Civil Rights?
01:11:21.000 I don't know.
01:11:21.000 Let's see what this next clip is.
01:11:22.000 It's, uh, not convincing.
01:11:23.000 If you do actually read these bills, you quickly find they absolutely make it harder to vote, and particularly for certain people.
01:11:32.000 So tonight, we thought we would take a look at the attack on voting rights and how best to fight it.
01:11:37.000 And let's start with what is in these bills, because it's a lot.
01:11:41.000 For instance, in Texas, where remember that claim, you can't find a single instance of
01:11:46.000 voter suppression.
01:11:48.000 One thing that bill does is roll back a lot of the innovative measures put in place during
01:11:52.000 the pandemic that made voting more accessible.
01:11:54.000 Among other things, it gets rid of 24 hour and drive-thru voting, both methods that Harris
01:11:59.000 County implemented last year.
01:12:00.000 And as the county clerk who oversaw that election points out, when you look at the precincts
01:12:05.000 where those methods were most popular, it's clear that the harm is pretty targeted.
01:12:11.000 Why are we taking 24-hour voting away?
01:12:13.000 Because 56% of voters in November who used 24-hour voting were people of color.
01:12:19.000 And they know that.
01:12:20.000 Why are we taking drive-thru voting away?
01:12:22.000 Because 53% of those voters in 2020 were people of color.
01:12:28.000 Yeah, it's pretty obvious who is being targeted there.
01:12:32.000 Okay, let's be really clear here.
01:12:33.000 Not only is it a matter of half, and they'll say, but as a percentage of the population, keep in mind they say people of color, so they're talking about all people of color.
01:12:38.000 Right.
01:12:39.000 In this report, I believe it includes blacks, Latin Americans, and I believe Asians as well.
01:12:43.000 That's why drive-by voting is also... Right, yes, exactly.
01:12:46.000 I read it wrong, so...
01:12:49.000 I thought we was doing something else.
01:12:51.000 Michael Douglas shows up, takes some shooting lessons, that's all.
01:12:54.000 So, here's something that's important here.
01:12:56.000 If it's 50, you said 52 percent I believe, right?
01:12:59.000 53.
01:12:59.000 53 percent were people of color.
01:13:00.000 Here's the thing, doesn't matter if it's half, doesn't matter if it's not half, it comes down to what's right.
01:13:04.000 Now look, if that 47 percent who are not people of color, let me ask this, are their votes in any way, the people who did not do drive-thru voting, the people who registered, the people who went through the process, right, the most secure process that we have, which of course is not mail-in voting, Is there any world in which their votes negatively impact the 53?
01:13:21.000 The legitimacy of the votes.
01:13:22.000 I'm not talking about who they vote for, even though you don't like it.
01:13:24.000 I'm saying is there any way that those votes steal those votes?
01:13:27.000 No?
01:13:28.000 Okay.
01:13:28.000 When we're talking about mail-in voting, when we're talking about no-voter ID, is there any way in which that 53% of voters of color could negatively impact, could take away the legitimate votes of the 47%?
01:13:40.000 Yes!
01:13:40.000 Hey, wait a second, Mr. Sheetbelt Law.
01:13:42.000 We're now talking about protecting the rights of individuals to not be infringed upon by someone else, including the sanctity of the vote.
01:13:49.000 Just ensuring that it is legal, that it is fair.
01:13:54.000 Let's also be clear about this.
01:13:55.000 The report that he's referencing in this video suggests that convicted felons are votes That need to be counted and that felony disenfranchisement is evidence of racism.
01:14:04.000 The presumption there is that most felons are black people.
01:14:07.000 Now we can talk about statistical realities, but the problem is you will say that it's racist until you're trying to vote Harvest.
01:14:13.000 Exactly, right?
01:14:13.000 And you don't have the right not to get out of your car to vote.
01:14:16.000 You also think about 24-hour voting.
01:14:18.000 You have to staff that, right?
01:14:19.000 So that's expensive to have people there.
01:14:20.000 And then poll watchers who typically, you know, sleep and have jobs to go to aren't able to go there.
01:14:25.000 You just board up the voting precinct and kick them out.
01:14:27.000 Well, that's true, so they don't get to watch the vote at all.
01:14:33.000 Look, here is my point.
01:14:35.000 There's no suggestion that is made by John Oliver to ensure the legitimacy of the vote.
01:14:41.000 He just says, this is racist, that's racist, disenfranchising.
01:14:44.000 Okay, look, how do you make sure?
01:14:46.000 You're just saying it's the safest and most secure.
01:14:48.000 How do you make sure that Americans who vote know that their vote is counted legitimately and that it's not canceled out by someone here illegally?
01:14:56.000 How do you know that's the case?
01:14:58.000 How do you ensure that's the case with no voter ID?
01:15:01.000 How do you ensure that's the case with no voter ID?
01:15:03.000 Because it's racist, even though a vast majority of black Americans disagree with you, white savior, and they all have voter ID by a significant majority.
01:15:09.000 I think it was 87% I just talked about, 90% of people of color in general.
01:15:12.000 How do you ensure that the black people's votes in the United States who want voter ID, Who want to make sure that their votes count.
01:15:20.000 By the way, who came out in higher numbers for Donald Trump because they're more enthusiastic.
01:15:24.000 They're taking more of an active role in the election process right now.
01:15:29.000 How do you ensure that they trust the vote?
01:15:32.000 You're just talking about ways, you're just suggesting ways to make sure that they don't.
01:15:36.000 So allow me to offer a suggestion here, and everyone out there, it's really simple.
01:15:40.000 How do you ensure the legitimacy of the vote?
01:15:45.000 Voter ID!
01:15:46.000 That's the fastest way!
01:15:47.000 Voter ID, and outside of a pandemic, which is what we were told, the only... We were told it was the only reason that that's why we are doing this mail-in voting and drive-thru voting.
01:15:57.000 If you can't trust drive-thru to get your fillet of fish right, maybe electing the leader of the free world should go another direction.
01:16:03.000 The easiest way is starting with voter ID.
01:16:06.000 And how do you make this case?
01:16:07.000 Look at the references.
01:16:09.000 Make it very clear to people.
01:16:10.000 The majority of people of color in this country support it.
01:16:13.000 The majority of, I guess, I guess white as a shade support it, and the majority of all Americans here, who are here legally, support it and believe that it is the first step to ensure there is no disenfranchisement of the vote, period.
01:16:25.000 John Oliver doesn't want you to know it.
01:16:27.000 He offers no solutions.
01:16:28.000 And you know what?
01:16:29.000 Hey, I'm like John Oliver, you want to confirm this?
01:16:31.000 We have the references?
01:16:33.000 Go talk to a black guy!
01:16:35.000 There's an 87% chance that he'll say, no I need a vote, you retarded!
01:16:41.000 Because they don't play PC, right?
01:16:43.000 They use those words.
01:16:43.000 I would never use those words.
01:16:44.000 I'm just saying, I can't judge the culture that may use words that you find offensive.
01:16:48.000 It's not for me to say that it's offensive, because I'm not a body saver like John Oliver.
01:16:51.000 OK, YouTube, thank you very much.
01:16:52.000 You have to go.
