It's Cultural Appropriation Month, which means it's time to learn about the land that brought us philosophy, lesbianism, and national bankruptcy: Greece! Join us as we learn about all things Greek, including the first nude scene in Greek cinema, the first naked scene in the history of European cinema, and the origin of the flaming cheese.
00:01:51.000It is Cultural Appropriation Month, so before we get to a recap of Biden and Putin, which is important, and we're also going to be talking about the new domestic terrorism, I don't know what you call it, watch policy?
00:02:02.000This is from whitehouse.gov and it should terrify you.
00:02:05.000It's time for, obviously, some Grease Facts.
00:02:10.000And of course many of us were going to have a costume contest for you, so you can send in your costume and we'll read the winner in Mug Club.
00:02:15.000So many of us know that ancient Greece was made up of sovereign city-states like Sparta and Athens, but scholars actually estimate that there were about 1,500 individual city-states.
00:02:25.000The Greeks performed the first nude scene in the history of European cinema in the film Daphnis and Chloe.
00:02:32.000And Mamma Mia, many know, was filmed in Greece, but unfortunately no one was killed during the making of that film, so that was a tough one.
00:02:50.000I don't, by the way, this is not a joke, I don't know how I feel about the fact that the one person who has to be a statue all show is the intern with actual Tourette's.
00:04:39.000But election night was a perfect example where we covered the votes coming in, where we were going, well, it looks like Donald Trump's going to win Michigan.
00:05:02.000Well, and what you see live with us is us commenting on it, like the headline when it came up, like, Biden is complimented by Putin on his morals.
00:07:51.000Okay, so over the weekend, I don't know if you know this about the island of Lesbos, but four Afghan youths were given the maximum sentence, ten years in jail, for burning down the Moria migrant camp on the island of Lesbos, actually.
00:08:06.000And this happened This happened in September 2020, and then they were just sentenced, I believe, over the weekend.
00:08:11.000Here's a clip of the fire that they set, Island of Lesbos.
00:08:13.000They're all going to the TikToker premiere.
00:08:48.000So a lot of people don't realize the word lesbian, while we're doing Cultural Appropriation Month Greece, was actually, it comes from the island of Lesbos, which was the birthplace of the Greek poet Sappho.
00:08:59.000And it was sort of, it was the first discovered lesbian by Galapagos.
00:09:06.000And actually, this is something a lot of people don't know this, actually, Lesbos, that's why it's called that
00:11:41.000If people are talking about how we need to have a commander-in-chief who is tough on Russia, tough on Putin, look, he spent most of his press conference, we were there live, crapping on the United States, and very clearly taking shots at Biden, which the leftist media took as compliments.
00:11:56.000Look, when he says he's an experienced statesman, when Putin says that about former Vice President Joe Biden, he's calling him a swamp creature.
00:12:03.000Because this is what, you have to have historical context, he complimented Donald Trump, remember?
00:12:08.000By saying, he's a businessman and he approaches it like from a business sense, so this is good, this is refreshing.
00:12:25.000I've killed people, but your president is a scumbag.
00:12:30.000I've killed people, Anderson, who could fit you in their back pocket.
00:12:35.000So here is a montage, just so you can see the highlights from Vladimir Putin dumping on the US and showing his respect for former Vice President Biden.
00:12:44.000Everything that happens in our countries, one way or another, It's the responsibility of the leaders themselves.
00:13:25.000Rioted and went into the Congress in the US with political demands and many people were declared as criminals and they are threatened with imprisonment from 20 to 25 years.
00:13:41.000We sympathize with what was happening in the States, but we do not wish that to happen in Russia.
00:13:48.000Tell us What did you see when you looked at him in the eyes?
00:13:52.000As far as looking in eyes and finding souls are concerned, well, I actually don't remember that he talked about his family.
00:15:06.000I've looked into the eyes of many people I've killed, and in their last moments they look very desperate, but not as desperate as Joe Biden just looks in general.
00:15:16.000The men who, before I burn alive in car bomb, have more courage than former Vice President Joe Biden.
00:15:24.000Yes, I have put, how you say, a tire around the neck and covered it in gasoline to people who look better at life than him.
00:15:33.000Yes, and I only admit because I do not fear any accountability right now.
00:16:30.000You have somebody saying Assad, there's a red line and if you cross it, it's a red line.
00:16:34.000He goes, well, okay, I'll cross it, crosses it, and then nothing happens.
00:16:37.000And then you have a guy like Donald Trump understanding that negotiation sometimes means you can't just say whatever you want, but then you can be tough in your policy.
00:16:45.000Well, a perfect example of this tangibly when we're talking, something that can be quantified because we're talking about policy.
00:16:50.000What do you think Putin thinks when he just said Joe Biden, former Vice President Joe Biden, got to make sure I get that right.
00:16:55.000He just said, you know, we're saying that America's back.
00:19:37.000Former Vice President Joe Biden also confused Putin with President Trump.
00:19:42.000I caught part of President Putin's press conference and he talked about the need for us to be able to have some kind of modus operandi where he dealt with making sure the Arctic was in fact A free zone.
00:19:59.000I mean it makes sense because he checks under his bed for both.
00:20:03.000He's so boring they put him on C-SPAN 3.
00:20:06.000I didn't even know there was a C-SPAN.
00:20:27.000He's like, yeah, it's gonna totally be a free zone.
00:20:28.000They got a lot of warships up there and they're taking our land.
00:20:31.000But don't worry, he promised, there's gonna be a free zone!
00:20:36.000By the way, we gotta talk about what you did to a masseuse earlier.
00:20:39.000Yeah, well, we actually shouldn't because we're well within YouTube.
00:20:42.000But he also, this is something that's really important here.
00:20:45.000This is, again, a complete lack of accountability that former Vice President Joe Biden... He lives in a bubble where he is hermetically sealed from any sort of criticism or accountability.
00:20:59.000Sort of like, I view this as a quintessential example because Barack Obama went out and cited the women make 77 cents on the dollar, complete lie, feminism.
00:21:31.000And I think now they're just so complacent, they are so comfortable with the media carrying their water, that Joe Biden doesn't realize that even the media is going to have to backtrack now and address the lie that he spouts on January 6th and saying that the rioters killed an officer, which we know is not true.
00:21:48.000When President Putin was questioned today about human rights, he said the reason why he's cracking down on opposition leaders is because he doesn't want something like January 6th to happen in Russia.
00:21:58.000And he also said he doesn't want to see groups formed like Black Lives Matter.
00:22:04.000My response is kind of what I communicated, but I think that's a, uh, that's a ridiculous comparison.
00:22:12.000It's one thing for literally criminals to break through cordon, go into the Capitol, kill a police officer, be held unaccountable.
00:22:23.000And it is for people objecting and marching on the Capitol when saying, you are not allowing me to speak freely.
00:22:30.000You are not allowing me to do A, B, C, or D. And so they're very different criteria.
00:22:36.000Okay, this is something, if you, if people were to want, if the left were to want a civil war, which God forbid ever happens in this country, this is how you do it.
00:22:48.000This is how you do it. What you do is tell Americans that what they are seeing, what they
00:22:53.000are experiencing, at least $2 billion in damages. It's been a year since they've upped the number,
00:22:58.000since they've upped it. Probably $4 billion when we're talking about the Black Lives Matter riots.
00:23:02.000Cities burning, dozens of deaths, hundreds of officer casualties, city halls, Walgreens,
00:23:10.000police precincts being burned, right in front of their eyes, people being shot in autonomous zones
00:23:16.000that were erected in a complete state of lawlessness, and you say all they were doing
00:23:21.000was saying that they weren't allowed to speak, as opposed to January 6th, and then you lie and say
00:23:25.000where someone killed an officer. If you want...
00:23:28.000This is sort of exactly if you look at the playbook of people who want to create civil unrest, division within their country.
00:23:34.000They used to accuse Donald Trump of this.
00:23:36.000What you do is tell people that exactly what they're seeing and experiencing isn't so.
00:23:44.000Yeah, well and you're empowering a foreign dictator by saying there's a January 6th riot that happens and 800 people, I think max is what they're saying, got out of control out of 200,000.
00:24:06.000I don't want that here and so that's why I have a guy in prison and that's why I'm just... Is that not the story?
00:24:11.000That's the story of the entire conference for me.
00:24:14.000He's justifying it because you guys are overplaying your hand and saying, oh it was an insurrection, but burning down the damn courthouse in Seattle over and over and over again isn't.
00:24:24.000Well the tactic is actually manipulation and abuse by making people think that what they see isn't actually there and what they remember isn't true.
00:27:03.000I would never want you to actually bomb this infrastructure.
00:27:07.000I mean, here's the thing, and I understand the left is trying to carry his word, saying, well, no, he was trying to say with those, those are red lines.
00:30:28.000Every response he has reminds me of that, like, a diabetes commercial where it's like, if I don't check my insulin, I get real short with my family.
00:32:12.000Can someone bring up a picture of Toobin so we can put it side by side with this guy because I'm not convinced that that's just not Toobin stung by a bee.
00:32:19.000This is like somebody that ate Toobin.
00:32:23.000Maybe Toobin's allergic to a new kind of KY he bought.
00:35:32.000This is something that a lot of people are not covering, and I want to know if you guys have actually... So you remember that there was a press conference for people?
00:35:39.000This happened while we were live on air, and sometimes, you know, things sort of happen on air.
00:35:42.000Keep in mind, I'm looking at a small monitor, so I didn't realize how impactful it was, and just the level of the bullshit that was being peddled, until I had some quiet time, had a nice cigar, and then went to whitehouse.gov, and I pulled a Biden.
00:37:10.000It's a great show if anybody listens, and he was even reading the stuff that Media Matters has written by us, and I love when somebody's reading it and it's funny in print.
00:37:20.000It's like, this was what you went for to detract people from watching us?
00:37:23.000It's an ad, every one of those articles is an ad.
00:38:05.000He announced to the White House the new plans to focus on domestic terrorism and specifically they keep using the term and highlighting the greatest threat to American society, white supremacists.
00:38:15.000The number of open FBI domestic terrorism investigations this year has increased significantly.
00:38:23.000According to an unclassified summary of the March Intelligence Assessment, the two most lethal elements of the domestic violent extremist threat are racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists and militia violent extremists.
00:38:37.000In the FBI's view, the top domestic violent extremist threat comes from racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, specifically those who advocated for the superiority of the white race.
00:40:42.000Okay, so the White House, here's what's also important, the White House released talking points for the new domestic terrorism policy and I would be playing it down if I said that it's a little concerning.
00:40:53.000So a senior administration press call from Tuesday included a section that read, one of the things we're talking about is the need to do something in this space like the see something if you see something say something concept.
00:41:06.000that has been promulgated previously by DHS.
00:41:22.000This says, this involves creating contexts in which those who are family members or friends or co-workers know that there are pathways and avenues to raise concerns And seek help for those they have perceived to be radicalizing and potentially radicalizing toward violence.
00:41:36.000Oh, sounds a little bit like communism!
00:41:48.000If that existed in a vacuum, If that existed in a vacuum, you'd say, well, okay, they obviously mean terrorists.
00:41:53.000They mean, you know, like the people who commit the mass... the serious majority of terrorism globally in the name of a political prescription that is Islam.
00:42:11.000I think people sometimes are focusing... I don't want to say focusing on the wrong thing, but sometimes they...
00:42:18.000In just discussing critical race theory, it makes people think that it's only a problem that occurs in schools, right?
00:42:26.000And this is something I've been pretty familiar with, you know, critical race theory, black liberation theology, and even the differences therein.
00:42:32.000Because Andrew Breitbart, while he was alive, and I, you know, used to contribute at Big Hollywood, he brought up the video of Barack Obama's professor, Derrick Bell.
00:42:40.000And talked about critical race theory.
00:42:41.000This is something that's been going on for a long time.
00:42:43.000Now, I need you to sort of take that lens, pull it out a little bit.
00:42:47.000Critical race theory starts with something racist.
00:43:03.000So, the White House, their fact sheet now that they have at WhiteHouse.gov, it says, it found that, meaning this report, the most lethal element of today's domestic terrorism threat are racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists who advocate for the superiority of the white race.
00:44:09.000I can't believe that they're actually, with a straight face, making the argument that we need to... WhiteHouse.gov could be a game-changer.
00:44:26.000Because apparently that was just the summer of love.
00:44:28.000If Vladimir Putin can see the coverage and go, wow, that's terrible, we don't want something like that in Russia, shouldn't that tell you that maybe you've missed it?
00:44:36.000You know who didn't think it was Summer of Love?
00:44:37.000Was it Seattle police chief or Portland police chief, the black lady?
00:45:58.000And DHS are similarly pursuing efforts to ensure domestic terrorists are not employed.
00:46:04.000So now we've said greatest threat, white supremacists.
00:46:06.000How many times have they said on CNN, the white supremacist faction of the Republican Party, the Trump faction, one and the same.
00:46:15.000They're going to make sure you're not employed.
00:46:17.000So a MAGA hat might lead to you, think of the Black Mirror episode, which actually happens in China, by the way, who we're not paying attention to for some reason, a social credit score.
00:46:29.000And we all see now that you have, what?
00:46:31.000You have people from the Capitol, January 6th, from the events that happened in the Capitol, who have, this is a fact, no more charges than trespassing, and they've been held indefinitely.
00:46:40.000You don't think they'd be willing to lock you up for a Twitter post?
00:46:43.000Or, at the very least, make sure you can't make a living?
00:46:46.000You want to act like this doesn't happen right now?
00:47:57.000Okay, they're very clear about what this is, and let me read the rest to you so you understand the totality, because there's also an association with a foreign entity here, which is a problem when you understand what they're about.
00:48:07.000Again, keep in mind, the United States is the only place with the First Amendment, and there's no way to just do away with that.
00:48:15.000So, the United States also joined the Christchurch call to action to eliminate terrorist and violent extremist content online in international partnership between governments and technology companies.
00:48:27.000Now, if that doesn't scare you yet, let me show you Merrick Garland talking about Christchurch in his speech, and then explain to you what they are about in dictating American policy.
00:48:38.000The technology sector is particularly important to countering terrorist abuse of internet-based communication platforms to recruit, incite, plot attacks, and foment hatred.
00:48:51.000Along with more than 50 other countries, the United States has joined the Christchurch
00:48:56.000call to action to collaborate with each other and relevant stakeholders, including tech
00:49:03.000companies, NGOs, and academics to tackle the online aspects of this threat.
00:49:09.000Alright, and you want to know why I'm really pissed off with Republicans and you want to
00:49:12.000The most disappointing thing that ever happened with President Donald Trump is they didn't do anything about the big tech censorship and really a tripopoly.
00:49:24.000Now we're hoping for states like Florida and Texas and other states to hopefully follow suit because now you see the other guys are in charge.
00:49:46.000Counter the drivers of terrorism and violent extremism by strengthening the resilience and inclusiveness of our societies to enable them to resist terrorist and violent extremist ideologies.
00:49:59.000What's the greatest among those right now?
00:50:09.000Including through education, building media literacy to help counter distorted terrorist and violent extremist narratives and fight against inequality.
00:50:20.000Until you go down and you see, oh, hold on a second, now they're carving it in.
00:50:25.000Accelerate research into and development of technical solutions to prevent the upload of and to detect and immediately remove terrorist and violent extremist content.
00:51:05.000I'm on my way to a gathering of world leaders and tech companies and civil society in Paris to promote something called the Christchurch.
00:51:16.000What happened in Christchurch was unique in one particular way.
00:51:21.000This was a terrorist act that was designed to go viral.
00:51:26.000And we're left, therefore, with, I think, a sense of responsibility, a duty of care, to try and yes, prevent terrorist attacks like this ever happening on our soil again, but to also try and prevent that sharing of terrorist content, of extreme violent content online.
00:51:46.000So that's what the Christchurch Call is all about.
00:51:49.000Now we as a government, we could have simply sat back and within New Zealand, formulated our own regulatory response.
00:51:56.000But social media companies, these platforms, they're global.
00:52:01.000And so the response needs to be global.
00:52:06.000They're beholden to other global entities, be them governments or be them partnerships, like the Christ Church Call to Action Conference, whatever the thing is called, if I get it right, where none of them have the First Amendment.
00:52:19.000None of them have the First Amendment.
00:53:35.000Well, they also, if you read that document really early on, they acknowledge that this is going to look like a grab at freedom of expression and freedom of speech around the world.
00:53:43.000And they're like, no, no, no, this is totally not.
00:53:45.000We understand that you have to be able to do that.
00:53:47.000And then they define this hate speech thing, right?
00:53:55.000And by the way, I'm not going to go into any details on this, so this is not dangerous territory.
00:54:00.000Just do a Google search on New Zealand COVID lockdowns.
00:54:03.000Just look at what New Zealand has done in this last year and a half, and then tell me you want them leading the world's response to anything.
00:55:07.000They don't include the peacefully making voices heard.
00:55:10.000And then they, what is the conclusion?
00:55:13.000What is the call to action here from Brookings?
00:55:15.000For now, it is vital for social media companies to be vigilant in stopping violent rhetoric and for law enforcement to anticipate and quickly suppress violence before it spreads.
00:55:28.000That is actual minority report territory.
00:55:55.000Well, they already just showed their hand in that Donald Trump saying, fight like hell.
00:55:59.000And we showed you guys a video where pretty much every single member of Congress, the Senate has used that in some speech at some point, at least hundreds over the last decade.
00:56:09.000And they want you to believe that that is a call to, I mean, Break through a window and not kill any officers at the Capitol?
00:56:17.000And by the way, to go to the Alex Jones thing, this was also circulating this week.
00:56:21.000And you guys know, I've had Alex Jones on the show.
00:56:22.000I probably disagree with Alex Jones on more than I agree with him.
00:56:25.000And frankly, sometimes I think that he's danced on the line.
00:56:30.000But because people who always say, oh, that person went over the line when they're talking about cancel culture, until eventually that line comes for them.
00:56:38.000And unless it's against the law, you have to permit it.
00:56:41.000They tried to spread the rumor that, oh, Alex Jones was in direct communication with the White House, so they planned the Capitol insurrection.
00:56:48.000And paid $500,000 to do it with one story, too.
00:56:52.000Yeah, of course, because they're going to trust Alex Jones with that.
00:56:54.000Listen, listen, Alex, Alex, can you keep your mouth shut?
00:57:02.000No, everyone knows that about me, President Trump.
00:57:14.000But there's footage of Alex Jones saying, stop, stop, they want you to do this, go away from the Capitol.
00:57:19.000He was on our show and said it was one of the worst days of his life.
00:57:22.000Because even if you can draw an association between the White House and Alex Jones, Alex Jones was not there encouraging violence.
00:57:29.000But the media doesn't tell that half of the story, so for sure they would put Alex Jones on a list to be unemployed, to be on a terrorist watch list.
00:57:36.000Do we not have lawyers in the United States?
00:57:39.000Is there not someone who's an adult that can be specific about what these things mean?
00:57:44.000Are we just going to have laws that are so vague that they can't be enforced or they can just be abused whenever they want?
00:57:49.000Yeah, they're taking notes from YouTube.
00:57:50.000Could you please be specific with your feedback?
00:58:43.000The coup de grace White House agenda, again at whitehouse.gov, it shows direct influence from Christchurch.
00:58:49.000Look, this is what they say here, every component of the government has a role to play in rooting out racism, okay, and bigotry, now we're getting into really vague territory, and advancing equity for all Americans.
01:01:52.000That doesn't just mean government agencies.
01:01:54.000That means if you do business with the government or you supply a business that does business with the government, their hands reach all the way down at all.
01:02:01.000Oh, you're not fighting the way we want you to fight this problem of racism in the country.
01:02:06.000We're no longer doing business with you.
01:02:07.000Your government contracts end this year.
01:02:09.000Well, equality would be giving everybody the same chance, not lowering the bar.
01:02:20.000Is every component of government going to root that out?
01:02:23.000Thomas Sowell has a really good point on this.
01:02:24.000He says, look, if you can't guarantee equal outcomes for siblings that are in the same house, with the same parents, with the same opportunities, how can you possibly do anything in the world when it's not nearly that comparable?
01:02:37.000This happened, I mean, uh, well, Troy Jr.
01:03:27.000But it only happened when the attractive girls came by.
01:03:30.000I used to do a thing called, uh, a guy I knew used to do a thing called reform when he was like 15, and I'd just be in the middle of a conversation, just grab a breast, and I'd be like, I have no control over this, go on.
01:03:41.000But it was my friends, shit, they all thought it was funny.
01:04:34.000Wonderful sponsor, Spartan Armor, on the range.
01:04:37.000I'm about to shoot stuff and blow it up.
01:04:39.000Alright, we're about to test out the new Spartan armor plate, the Hercules Level 4.
01:04:44.000And the reason Spartan created this plate is that a lot of those out there, the competitors, they'll say they're 10x12, but they don't really cover the whole area.
01:04:51.000So Spartan wanted to design a plate that truly covers 10x12.
01:04:55.000Level 4, so I believe 30-06 armor-piercing rounds.
01:07:18.000For people out there, you guys, people who are from Michigan, especially northern Michigan, if you guys know, do you guys know what pasties are?
01:10:18.000Let me ask you, can you set this up for people who don't know, the Greek historical, actually the context of how they viewed penises, because a lot of the statues, everyone has noticed they're relatively, they're small, they're petite.
01:10:33.000So yeah, this is actually, as you mentioned, this is one of the...
01:10:36.000Considered one of the greatest anthropological and art history kind of anomalies.
01:10:59.000And you know what, actually, I'm going to aim this at you a little more because I want people to It actually was fascinating when I found out about it.
01:11:06.000You just realize not all cultures, they really aren't the same.
01:11:11.000So yeah, as you can see here, the Greeks, you know, just by simple observation, they noticed the more erudite and intelligent one was, the smaller, so this actually goes up here, so it's low, high IQ, the smaller one's penis was.
01:11:29.000So they believed that a small penis was a sign of being sort of part of the intellectual aristocratic status.
01:18:22.000Now, I could understand... No, I couldn't.
01:18:25.000But I think that, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt, I would have initially if it was, we want things that are more comfortable for women, but also sexy.
01:20:50.000All video games, all athletic wear, all sporting equipment.
01:20:54.000This is why that's the most valuable demographic, because young people tend to spend money on stupid shit.
01:21:01.000Old people either are smart enough to realize they don't need said stupid shit, they don't have room for said stupid shit, or they like the way said stupid shit looks, but they can't do anything about it anyway.
01:21:09.000That's why everything is marketed to young people.
01:21:13.000What do you think is gonna happen if you put somebody in charge who apparently lesbians don't care about the looks of the other... It's gonna end up being like JCPenney's.
01:21:32.000Those are marketed maybe, you know, to lesbians and young men who are going to use those trucks to take the mannequins from Victoria's Secret.
01:21:41.000We're going to take last year's model.
01:22:40.000Look, if that made sense, then they're attracted to the wonder The wondrous beauty and all the splendor that is woman, and then they pick a woman who smashes beer cans on their head and shops at Orvis.
01:23:16.000I think a lot about what we think is sexy.
01:23:19.000And we are afforded the ability to do that, because I don't have to wear the traditional sexy thing to be sexy, and I don't think the traditional thing is sexy when it comes to my partner or people I've dated.
01:23:30.000I think functionality is probably the best thing we could possibly achieve in life.
01:23:36.000Possibly the sexiest thing we could achieve in life.
01:23:40.000If that were true, your best bet at getting laid would be old sweatpants and a hockey helmet.
01:23:45.000Take your girlfriend or wife out to a nice dinner in a Looney Tunes t-shirt.
01:25:47.000Your mom would be like, what do you pick out the items that you want?
01:25:49.000Like it was a Scholastic Book Fair and she'd be going through this year's Wish Catalog but she'd turn it over and it was like a limestone tablet, four pages.
01:29:47.000It's just an attractive quality in a woman to a man for the same reason that lingerie panties are, and for the same reason that you like tall guys or people who you believe can provide for you.
01:29:57.000When you tell young women, actually, you should recreate everything you are in the image of a soccer-playing lesbian, and then they wonder why no one but soccer-playing lesbians are interested in them, and then their window has closed, and their eggs don't work.
01:31:09.000Right, and go out wearing terrible things.
01:31:11.000But you also can't go out dressed like a hoodlum and think people are going to find you attractive if, as a woman, you're wearing nasty clothing.
01:31:18.000We've told young women now, go out in public like Lizzo.
01:31:23.000Go out in public like Cardi B, and dressed, to use your word, like a hoe.
01:31:27.000Go out and show it all off, but in the confines of your own home, make sure that none of that is being done to please your husband.
