Comedian and actor Bill Burr joins Jemele to discuss his new comedy show, The Rebels With a Cause Comedy Tour. He also talks about the growing pains of being an African-American comedian in the 21st century, and why he doesn t want to take a break from comedy.
00:02:45.000She'd be fine with woman because she's a lady.
00:02:47.000And there's a huge demographic shift taking place here in the United States.
00:02:50.000Now just to be clear, I want to warn everyone out there, That I am not advocating for open borders at all.
00:02:56.000I am not denying the reality of demographic voting patterns at all.
00:03:00.000I'm just letting you know that there's a silver lining and one that could definitively tip elections in certain states and it's a good thing.
00:03:47.000By the way, fastest wit in the West, fastest man on his feet, quickest man on his feet, and I will be on tour with him, him and I together.
00:04:58.000And he did have, he wasn't really a stoic.
00:05:01.000He had a tough time controlling his emotions, which, you know, you reach that certain age, left brain, right brain, no brain, brings us to this week in Biden.
00:05:09.000If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.
00:05:13.000One of these guys left my employment, went to another job.
00:08:28.000I don't want to get too granular so that your eyes glaze over, but the Latino American, Hispanic American, the not-Latinx Americans, because I would never pander to them and I don't want to get shanked.
00:09:01.000We are live here at Mayra Flores' watch party where the Republican candidate for Congressional District 34 is celebrating, following her Congressional win tonight.
00:09:11.000I spoke with her earlier tonight where she shared her thoughts about her candidacy.
00:09:19.000We have all the ingredients to be successful and I just want to bring better jobs, better opportunities so our children don't have to leave South Texas for those opportunities.
00:11:32.000Well, this is a perfect example of there can be no intellectual consistency on the left because no one passes the purity test.
00:11:38.000There would be nobody who you could name who should be more of a darling of the eco-left.
00:11:45.000The neo-environmentalist left should have to be It should have to be Musk, and even not too long ago they were saying, get an electric car.
00:11:54.000But now they hate him because he had to move electric car facilities from California to Texas!
00:12:42.000Considering that Democrats' whole strategy is getting Hispanic voters to turn out for them because they're getting their butts kicked in just about every other category, that's massive.
00:12:54.000Well, this is part of a nationwide trend.
00:12:55.000This is important for people to understand, and you'll hear people who say demographics are destiny.
00:12:59.000I understand what they're talking about.
00:13:01.000I understand that millions of illegal immigrants flooding across the border who are promised welfare benefits, who are promised a social safety net that they haven't paid into, that that's a real problem.
00:13:52.000Hispanic Democrats, they're 10% more likely to consider just completely switching parties than Hispanic Republicans.
00:13:58.000So you're seeing a disapproval with Hispanic voters who are Democrats, and you're seeing them disapprove of Biden's handling of the economy.
00:14:06.000And then there's the inherent values that you see often with especially Yeah.
00:14:12.000Well, they've been promised free stuff as a step to prosperity, right?
00:14:14.000Democrats by nature. They've been promised free stuff for a long time, but
00:14:17.000once you're here, you're here legally and you're paying taxes, you go, wait, hold on
00:14:20.000a second, maybe we need people to sign the guest book. Yeah, well they've been
00:14:23.000promised free stuff as a step to prosperity, right? The Democrats have been
00:14:27.000saying like, we're gonna get you in, we're gonna get you here, you're gonna
00:14:29.000have free stuff, you're gonna get jobs, you're gonna be able to do this, and
00:14:31.000they're seeing that that isn't happening and has not been happening historically
00:14:35.000The Democrats' promises are falling short, and then they're seeing the social things, that they're like, how in the world, as a big family culture, like, they are not for all the stuff that the Democrats are pushing right now, and it's turning them away.
00:14:46.000So, just keep doing what you're doing, Democrats.
00:17:15.000If you're looking at these trends, people who disapprove, who approve, you don't need to win.
00:17:19.000Republicans don't need to win the Hispanic vote.
00:17:20.000But if you reduce that margin to, let's say you get 40%, maybe 42%...
00:17:26.000Republicans don't lose another election ever, not to mention in local elections, particularly in states like Texas and states like Arizona.
00:17:52.000Yes, and here's the thing, they're the least likely voting bloc to get out and vote.
00:17:57.000So, if you make this shift, and then you encourage them to vote, meaning legal citizens, of course, most of them, by the way, support voter ID, legal immigrants, that's another thing people don't tell you.
00:19:38.000For example, by using terms like Latinx, which no Hispanic Americans like.
00:19:45.000I also have a mini rant about this because there are some politicians, including Democratic politicians, that rail against the term Latinx.
00:19:53.000And they're like, this is so bad, this is so bad for the party, like blah blah blah.
00:20:00.000And like, it's almost as though it has not struck some of these folks that another person's identity is not about your re-election prospects.
00:20:09.000First off, I don't know if maybe a bright idea could strike her.
00:20:13.000And by that I mean a man, last name Idea, first name Bright.
00:20:41.000only three percent or less of Hispanics say that they use the term or even like it. So she's
00:20:47.000speaking, and by the way she also speaks for the extinct people of Puerto Rico, she also speaks for
00:20:53.000the Native Americans, and by the way that just includes all the above, the Cheyenne, the Apaches
00:20:57.000of Lakota, you know people who are at war with each other, she speaks for all of them and now
00:21:00.000she speaks for Hispanics saying, I just, you know, Republicans just, you know what I'm saying,
00:21:03.000someone else's identity. Well why do you get to choose that to be the identity when 97 percent
00:21:09.000of the people in question think you're full of crap.
00:21:12.000And by the way, miss go-down-to-a-parking-lot-and-have-a-photographer-go-with-you-to-decry-these-cages, you're telling me that somebody's saying, hey, Latinx isn't great for the party.
00:21:46.000I would sooner have a drink with Bill Cosby, go up to the restroom for 20 minutes to give him plenty of time to roofie me, and then come back.
00:24:46.000I actually, you know what, this is something that happened to me.
00:24:48.000There was a dog named Mr. Big, before I got Hopper, before I got Joe Louis, and he was a big American Bulldog pit bull, probably mix, I don't know, maybe Great Dane mix.
00:26:22.000Well, that's so stupid, by the way, for them to say, hey, if you're a Second Amendment believer, they didn't say what they really wanted to say there.
00:26:29.000This is saying you want to buy assault rifles.
00:26:31.000Like, if you want guns at all, they said assault rifles.
00:26:34.000But I mean, if you think you should be able to own a gun, period, we're not going to give a dog to you.
00:26:38.000If you have a dog that's deemed dangerous, wouldn't it be better that you're a Second Amendment believer?
00:26:59.000If you fall into the category of a 41% attempted suicide rate because of what was previously diagnosed as mental illness, we're not going to give you a dog.
00:27:07.000Instead, it's just, you own an inanimate object?
00:27:18.000Because when you see a woman with a stupid little dog who's yapping and they pick it up and reward that behavior, you're going, that's not a gun owner.
00:28:15.000Okay, before we move on to gas prices.
00:28:18.000Well, you're going to love this next one because, I mean, this requires a panoramic lens.
00:28:22.000This curve model, famous TikToker Rami Bader, was just recently, this is a story, it's been making the rounds, the latest outrage, I don't know if you know this, obese is now considered a slur.
00:28:33.000Just like yesterday was fast, now is obese.
00:28:36.000But when they say they're living their truth, unfortunately, sometimes that truth doesn't coincide with the reality of weight limits.
00:28:43.000She was kicked out of a ranch for being too heavy.
00:32:11.000There's a dinosaur ranch that's just right for you.
00:32:19.000It's just she gets on the skeleton and bones just fall through like son of a... So Deep Hollow Ranch, they addressed the situation on Facebook.
00:32:25.000They said, we would like to apologize to anyone who this offended.
00:32:28.000Well look, that was clearly meant to offend.
00:32:30.000And we do not condone or agree with any part of that employee's video.
00:33:40.000They actually came into my shop when they were trying to promote this.
00:33:42.000This was them trying to do an event with influencers.
00:33:45.000What's really funny is the picture she posted of all the influencers are like incredibly skinny girls in a car, and her standing next to the car.
00:37:27.000I mean, if I run a ranch and, you know, AOC comes in, I wouldn't deny her service, but I would make her wear a specific outfit so I could, you know, tell her and the horse apart.
00:37:46.000And instead of putting your feet, you're gonna have to ratchet one of those stirrups around you like Liam Neeson in The Grey when the plane goes down.
00:39:40.000This is, it seems like it's silly, but guess what?
00:39:43.000We just had this where we, we can be banned on YouTube if we refer to someone who is very clearly a man as a man.
00:39:50.000And we, oh that's right, recently we were labeled medical misinformation for the Fat Pride panel that I crashed back at South by Southwest.
00:39:57.000That was labeled medical misinformation.
00:40:20.000The problem is fat people who say that that is a healthy lifestyle and promote that to people, which is what this person is essentially doing.
00:40:26.000And please say fat because obese is offensive.
00:40:40.000Share the show if you're watching on YouTube.
00:40:42.000Hit the share button because, you know, a lot of people also, I appreciate it, you'll be watching Crowder Bits, but a lot of people miss all of this information here in the show.
00:40:48.000So if you can tune in, that always helps because the YouTube algorithm doesn't help us or pay us anything.
00:41:53.000Question for you, we were talking about this earlier.
00:41:55.000Have you heard people say now, they didn't always used to say this, and I guarantee you they won't be saying this, when naturally gas prices will probably go down at some point, though it seems unlikely, have you been told one of two things?
00:42:06.000Either the president doesn't have any effect on gas prices, or the president doesn't control gas prices, or there's more drilling taking place actually under former Vice President Biden than under Donald Trump.
00:42:17.000That's something that we hear a lot of.
00:42:24.000For those of you who don't know, because you may live in some states where you actually have decent gas prices, and by decent I mean horrible, but not, you know, swallow a gun horrible, it's now reached across the country over $5 a gallon as of Saturday, I think Saturday?
00:43:32.000Eight, three, and we're going to have four.
00:43:34.000High gas prices, record low gas prices, high gas prices again.
00:43:38.000So you probably inherently know that it has something to do with the former vice president, but they've been trying to convince you that it doesn't.
00:43:45.000And let me give you some information, just so you know what's wrong.
00:43:49.000All references available at ladderwithcreditor.com.
00:43:51.000Here is a claim that they are currently making.
00:44:48.000And that might change, by the way, because the prices are going to continually rise, and that doesn't necessarily mean that it's because of Russia.
00:44:53.000They were going up before Russia, they'll continue to go up.
00:45:05.000Biden has, and this is important to note, because people say, whoa, hold on, the president doesn't have control over gas prices.
00:45:11.000It's actually probably one of the issues where they have more control than most people, and that's because oil, in particular petroleum, is a highly speculative market.
00:45:27.000Right, you're talking about future earnings.
00:45:29.000And so it really, really helps determine whether you're going to drill, whether you're going to pull back.
00:45:33.000You will see a rubber band effect sometimes depending on when someone comes into office where gas prices go down just because of policies that may not be enacted for another year or two because they're willing to invest knowing that they'll recoup it.
00:45:43.000So that being said, former Vice President Biden has taken over 80 actions.
00:45:50.000Impacting what would impact gas prices, fossil fuels.
00:49:05.000People are going to say, oh, there's not going to be as much oil available in the market, which means prices have to go up, right?
00:49:12.000Or, we have to increase capacity significantly.
00:49:14.000We have not had a good track record of getting OPEC to play ball in the past.
00:49:18.000They do kind of what they want to do, which is why Joe Biden is going hat in hand to Saudi Arabia and other Middle Eastern countries, and also to Venezuela, and saying, please!
00:49:33.000And so people that say he has no impact on this have no idea how this works.
00:49:37.000And the White House did say, thank God, that they're going to be releasing more oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which is really for times of war.
00:49:45.000So that we can make sure that we can fight.
00:50:02.000That he also takes no responsibility for.
00:50:04.000Right, and that's important because here's another claim that they make, and this is the one that you hear everywhere right now because they know that it's okay, checkmate, if it's not true.
00:50:12.000And Americans inherently believe that their claim is not true, so they just repeat it, repeat it, repeat it, repeat it, repeat it, just like, you know, safest, most secure election in history.
00:50:19.000So they're claiming right now that there's actually more domestic drilling under former Vice President Joe Biden than President Trump.
00:51:53.000Because Americans often, and sometimes this is unfortunate, vote with their pocketbook.
00:51:57.000It's really hard to vote against your own self-interest, even if you are principled.
00:52:01.000And in this case, it's serendipitous because the two line up.
00:52:05.000You can vote your principles, and you can vote your pocketbook.
00:52:07.000So then he gets into office, we go from, I'm going to end fossil fuels, to now things are so bad, they're making the claim, end fossil fuels, there's more drilling under me than under Donald Trump.
00:52:16.000Well yeah, that's because of the first half of the year, which you then stopped!
00:52:47.000The White House's response to all this is to continue to taper it off and go as low as they possibly can and then say, like you said, more.
00:52:54.000They just issued a statement today saying the oil company CEOs, this was a threat from Biden to the CEOs, increased production and stopped price gouging.
00:54:18.000If you look at a chart, which was linked in the article, if you look at a chart, it shows you when COVID hit, it was a slow trickle down because demand went down very quickly.
00:54:27.000After it ended, it was a slow trickle up.
00:54:28.000And then in December of this last year, it trickled down just a little bit more.
00:54:31.000That's why they're making more profits.
00:55:23.000If PolitiFact and these people were being honest, they'd say, well, that's partially true, but that's because of the rollover from Donald Trump.
00:55:27.000And then Joe Biden has, boom, basically put a moratorium.
