Dave Lando is a comedian, stand-up comic, and host of the TV show "Louder With Crowder" and "Comedy Unleashed." He's also known for his appearances on "Live PD" where he was tasered, fighting cops with his pants around his ankles, and being tased after saying, "I love you, Margot. I love you." and "I'm sorry, I'm sorry Margot." And now, he's got a new segment called "MSNBC Calls Out Crowder."
00:00:18.000I'm D-List Celebrity Dave Lando, and you may recognize me from shows such as Louder with Crowder, Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen, and 11 appearances on Margot Robbie's doorbell camera where I'm resisting arrest.
00:00:32.000Many people have seen me on Live PD with my pants around my ankles, fighting cops and being tased, saying, I love you, Margot.
00:06:12.000Today we are going to be talking about, this week in Biden of course, we're going to have a little segment there for you, MSM calls out Crowder, which is mainstream media.
00:06:32.000We also have to talk a bit about Woodstock 99, the FBI raid, or whatever word they want to call it now because we're redefining every word imaginable, and also lonely single men on the rise.
00:12:08.000And Charleston, West Virginia, October 8th.
00:12:11.000Also, you can catch me, sweet, sweet, buttery Dave, September 30th in Lexington, Michigan at the Lexington Theatre, and October 1st in Bay City, Michigan.
00:12:24.000At the State Theater with my boy Derek Richards.
00:12:26.000He and I are putting on a little show there.
00:12:53.000Well, we scaled it for basketball, we're opening up to hockey, and now we're opening up to... And then when it's women's basketball, it's just everything, it's just the court.
00:13:01.000Yeah, I think we passed the WNBA's ticket sales on day one.
00:13:05.000I wouldn't mind going to a WNBA game, you know?
00:22:30.000It's like an abusive parent, like, using their child to... manipulating their child to get what they want in a marriage or something like that.
00:22:37.000Yeah, all bills are essentially, uh... Who's that, Skeddy Gale?
00:24:30.000And there's the fact that so much of it seems, whether it's Donald Trump himself, or people who are allied with Donald Trump, they seem to be doing this intentionally.
00:24:52.000And that they are in a full-fledged war now.
00:24:54.000That's the big thing that you're hearing this morning.
00:24:56.000And if you're hearing this, by the way, from people like Steven Crowder, who has, what, six million YouTube subscribers on, like, very civilian platforms, can you imagine how bad it is in these telegram spaces?
00:25:09.000I can tell you right now it's worse than you'd imagine.
00:25:36.000Like we've very clearly said, we're not calling people to violence.
00:25:39.000There are other ways to fight ideologies.
00:25:43.000When you talk about going to war politically against an opponent, This is moronic.
00:25:48.000This is taking something completely out of context and saying, oh, this is definitely what they meant.
00:25:52.000They want people to go and be violent.
00:25:54.000And then I love how he included sleep well, but he read it as a threat.
00:25:59.000Like when the boogeyman says to you, like, sleep well.
00:26:04.000What Stephen essentially meant is more and more is happening to you, where more and more government agencies are coming after you, so sleep well.
00:26:45.000If you're believing it at this point, you're beyond saving.
00:26:48.000Because if you can't see what tactics they're using to smear very Normal, very cordial, political discourse, then I don't know where we go from here, because it's so blaringly obvious what they're doing.
00:28:12.000I mean, of course we do mainstream numbers, but we've always been fringe until, oh, all of a sudden we need you as the example, so you're mainstream today.
00:28:19.000You're mainstream when you're a threat.
00:28:23.000That's the only time you become mainstream.
00:29:42.000Well, my question to you guys is like, what is the proper response?
00:29:45.000So this is the framing right now, and I know we're going to get to a Washington Post article here in just a second, but what is the proper response?
00:29:56.000Something happens that's never happened before in history.
00:29:58.000You find out information about this that they already knew what documents were there.
00:30:01.000They were there talking to their lawyers.
00:30:03.000There's a conversation that typically happens in these instances where lawyers say, hey, we want these documents to be brought back to the National Archives, which seems to be at the very center of all of this for some reason.
00:30:14.000They finally are relevant for some reason.
00:30:16.000What is the proper response if you do something that has never been done before in the history of our country?
00:30:24.000Because what I see right now is an FBI run amok, and we've seen it over and over and over, and they typically have either a group of people that they target, but they have one target that seems to be at the top of their list for the last six, seven years, and you do something else to inflame people.
00:31:28.000There's something to be said about waiting and saying, okay, maybe there's some bot, maybe, maybe, I don't think so, because there never has been.
00:31:45.000But if it comes out that the only reason they were down there is so they could film National Treasure 3 and look through the National Archives, There is gonna be a storm coming, and I don't- non-violently, of course, I know we have to caveat everything.
00:32:03.000The part I just don't understand is being so brainwashed regardless of what side you're on that it shouldn't concern you, and it's not even- it's sad that it should even take to this point to realize how bad we've been screwed.
00:32:16.000You should have realized this before this even happened, but the fact that this hasn't, it shines such a bright light on everything that I'm surprised how people are still defending it and defending it.
00:32:27.000But it's the same thing as you have all these videos of Hunter, you have all this proof of money going to him and money going up to his dad.
00:32:46.000That's just this elite group telling people what to think and they're still pushing that narrative even though they're being screwed by it.
00:32:54.000They've gotten away with it for long enough.
00:33:53.000And that's the point that she makes in her article.
00:33:55.000That was kind of the overarching point is we're the problem because we're eroding trust in these institutions and of course that's going to lead to violence.
00:34:02.000And why wouldn't you erode trust in the institutions?
00:34:04.000You mean the ones that are untrustworthy?
00:34:53.000I wrote a deliberately stupid tweet about when are they going to go after a height in a lager or something, and they were like, the number of people that attacked me as if I was sincerely meaning for that to be funny was astonishing.
00:35:07.000They're just like, go you son of a- whatever, they have dirt on them.
00:35:11.000It's like, have you not seen the Endless Videos?
00:35:42.000That is a, I fell asleep halfway into it.
00:35:45.000Hannah Allum wrote, within hours of search of Mar-a-Lago, a chorus of Republican lawmakers, conservative talk show hosts, anti-government provocateurs, and pro-Trump conspiracy theorists began issuing explicit or thinly veiled calls for violence.
00:36:13.000Right-wing podcaster Stephen Crowder announced Tuesday to his nearly 2 million followers on Twitter, referring to the program that goes to his YouTube audience of 5.6 million.
00:36:26.000I appreciate that you finally recognize that we have some popularity.
00:36:31.000Yeah, I do appreciate the number count.
00:36:52.000How can they feign shock at the response that the right is giving, or specifically that this shows you?
00:36:57.000How do they act surprised by that when, if you look at every single institution, every lever of government, besides the Supreme Court, it is explicitly controlled by Democrats?
00:37:07.000And then every time something like this seems to happen, it happens in one direction.
00:37:11.000And now finally people are saying something like, oh my god, I can't believe it.
00:37:15.000They're essentially turning government institutions into an authoritarian wing.
00:37:20.000It's like when Xi Jinping became the president of China, he went on his anti-corruption campaign.
00:37:27.000Well, all that was was to weed out all the people that were dissenting against his views and his ideas.
00:37:33.000If you could explain what the difference is here, I'd love to hear it.
00:37:36.000Well, you know what makes this even more perplexing to me is that this comes from the generation that was anti-government.
00:37:41.000This comes from the generation that spent all of their time growing up Protesting the government because they didn't trust the institutions of the United States of America and now they're in power and wondering why people question.
00:37:52.000By the way, our system of government is set up specifically for this.
00:37:57.000The government is never supposed to have a free pass to do whatever they want.
00:38:00.000The citizenry absolutely can question the government at every single turn.
00:38:25.000And if you go even further than that, then I understand that there are processes within the judicial system to take care of that too, but what do they expect people to do?
00:38:32.000Just sit there and go, oh yeah, yeah, I don't like what's going on in the government right now, but I'm just a citizen of this country.
00:38:36.000I have no responsibility for what actually happens here.
00:38:38.000I don't have kids that have to live here in 20, 40, 50, 60 years, and that they don't have potentially kids that are going to have to live in a country too.
00:38:46.000I know people have died for it by the thousands, by the hundreds of thousands, but no, I can't be bothered to actually, you know, pay attention to what's happening.
00:38:55.000Well, I mean, if we're supposed to be a people in charge of our government, shouldn't they be afraid of us instead of now where we're constantly being afraid of them?
00:39:04.000Because that's what's been laying into us endlessly now.
00:39:07.000The only power they have is the power we have given them.
00:39:12.000And they're taking way more than we've given them.
00:39:15.000They've taken way more money than we've given them.
00:39:18.000They've taken way, way, way... Even the idea of being a politician is about serving the public, and I haven't seen many, and this goes right or left, that I've seen that do anything for the public.
00:42:58.000I'm not calling you to violence, unlike what's being implied on Twitter.
00:43:02.000Eric Swalwell with a fight like hell, banging Chinese spies.
00:43:07.000Today's the day that we all have the right to be pissed off, to yell, to scream, to behave not as egregiously as the left, It's time to fight fire a little bit with fire, and today we're also going to get into, I was really spending all night, and I didn't sleep much, thinking about what is it that I can do, what is it that we can do here, where we can offer you quantifiable steps that you can take.
00:43:32.000And some of those are going to have to be addressed on Mug Club, not on YouTube.
00:43:34.000Not because it's a call for violence, not because it's a call for a physical civil war.
00:43:41.000But because I don't know the rule book and I know that they're on high alert over there at YouTube.
00:43:44.000Claim to be carrying our mantle, Republicans, Conservatives.
00:45:24.000It's not like you guys are just having fun messing with me.
00:45:28.000We're actually trying to do the right thing and show what people actually believe and say.
00:45:33.000And honestly, Steven gets pissed off if we bring something and it's like, no, no, no, that's not the full deal.
00:45:39.000because it's not what somebody is actually saying. These guys don't care about that.
00:45:42.000Stephen's been labeled, and by proxy all of us too, right?
00:45:46.000We've been labeled as right-wing provocateurs. What are we saying that's provocative? We
00:45:49.000want you to have more freedom. We want the government to have less control over your life. We want
00:45:53.000there to be more prosperity. We want every class of people in this country to feel like they can do it.
00:45:57.000Not that you have to have somebody help We want to help people that are in need, but we think charity is probably a better way than stealing money through taxation and spending it on Ukraine and other stuff that people like, by the way, the Inflation Reduction Act where they're doing a whole bunch of climate stuff in there.
00:47:08.000Well, it's interesting to even look at that side of the left because it's this idea of like, you should all be accepting and we're all anti-bullying yet they use all tactics of mob mentality.
00:48:28.000The thing that they have made into the greatest threat to democracy that's ever existed in the United States of America is now being used as evidence that of course the right is getting more violent.
00:48:38.000The greatest threat was that raid at Mar-a-Lago.
00:48:43.000Well, and I saw George Takai, brilliant, tweet something out about how the left and threat violence in 2011 when Hillary got investigated, whatever it was, and it's like, what are you talking about?
00:49:00.000Are you talking about when Obama was in office?
00:49:04.000Do you realize anything that you mean?
00:49:32.000They have more trouble with some dude on Twitter saying he's gonna, I don't know, do whatever, than an entire mob killing a ton of contractors and an ambassador.
00:50:44.000Gerald is very careful with his words.
00:50:47.000I think everybody on here is careful with their words.
00:50:49.000But we do have a sincere point here, and the idea, too, that with the whole right-wing and taking that over, I have been very open about the fact that I have a left ideology that is very open.
00:51:04.000But what is going on now and on that side has nothing to do with any principles involving freedom of speech or anything that I was raised to believe in or anything that I would have ever really considered democratic.
00:51:17.000You're just part of a system that is dividing this country in half.
00:51:20.000And I encourage you to stop allowing it.
00:54:37.000It's nice for us, it's nice for you, and honestly, in the summer, especially in the Texas heat, I take a shower, I go outside for five minutes, and I'm like... That was a waste of time.
00:55:11.000We weren't promoting merch to take advantage of anything.
00:55:13.000We were promoting merchandise because We did a Fight Like Hell shirt a long time ago, and we thought it was very, very relevant today for people to see what team you're on.
00:55:22.000If you want to pick something else, fine.
00:55:23.000But not everybody can subscribe, not everybody can join Mug Club, not everybody's going to go out and buy a Manscapedo.
00:55:28.000You should try it if you like that stuff.
01:00:47.000The warrant, however, only covered presidential records and evidence of classified information.
01:00:54.000The location of which was already known.
01:00:59.000Investigators went down to Mar-a-Lago and actually met with Trump's attorneys.
01:01:03.000We are told it was back in early June, they believe, and they met with Trump's attorneys.
01:01:07.000I am told that they were shown a room that had boxes of documents that were there, that days after they left Mar-a-Lago, they sent a letter to Trump's attorneys asking them to further secure the room.
01:05:09.000One of our researchers, Kevin, is fantastic.
01:05:12.000So he wants to be able to talk about lonely single men.
01:05:15.000I actually just got me a bass, a Squier jazz bass, and I've been playing it, and I just kind of want, I was talking to Casey about it, and I just can't, I can't finger a guitar like I used to.
