Transcript

00:00:00.000 Oh, Elon.
00:00:21.000 Elon announced today that he's working with a bunch of grievance organizations to police hate speech and harassment on Twitter.
00:00:28.000 Congratulations!
00:00:29.000 The people who hate you, always hate you, and are lying about you are still lying about you, because even after this meeting, they're now ragging on him still, saying he's unleashing hate, targeting underprivileged communities.
00:00:40.000 So, what a good waste of time that was.
00:00:43.000 On top of this, Elon announced they're working with an organization that admittedly produced bots to interfere in an election.
00:00:52.000 Hurting Republicans, of course.
00:00:54.000 A lot of people pointed out it was going to go like this because Elon's not firing one of the top people who was involved in censorship calling Trump supporters Nazis, this guy Yoel Roth.
00:01:02.000 But here we go!
00:01:03.000 Now Elon's coming out and saying, I'm getting attacked by the left and the right.
00:01:07.000 That means I'm doing something good.
00:01:08.000 And it's like, bro, you're getting attacked by everybody.
00:01:10.000 Like, moderates are mad.
00:01:12.000 It's not just conservatives.
00:01:13.000 It's because independent voters, moderate voters, whatever you want to call them if they're voters, if that even matters in the culture war.
00:01:19.000 That's what matters more.
00:01:20.000 Independents and Republicans are basically like, dude, we have been compromising endlessly, and the left keeps making demands, and Twitter kept giving in to their demands.
00:01:32.000 And now that Elon's in, he's like, I'm going to keep giving in to the whiny demands.
00:01:35.000 Okay, you know what, dude?
00:01:36.000 I'm not paying for your garbage.
00:01:37.000 I canceled Twitter Blue.
00:01:39.000 I'm not paying for it.
00:01:40.000 If you're not going to reinstate people, there was one guy who got reinstated.
00:01:43.000 Maybe we'll see more.
00:01:44.000 I still think it's a net positive.
00:01:45.000 But dude, if you're going to start working with grievance organizations and active election manipulators, does not look like a good sign.
00:01:52.000 So the moment you start fixing it, maybe then I'll consider paying.
00:01:54.000 But we'll talk about that.
00:01:55.000 I don't want to rant too much because we've also got Oh man, the White House put out this boastful tweet about how the Biden administration's leadership was resulting in a social security increase, and then it got fact-checked by the community.
00:02:10.000 Actually, that was Nixon, and it was automatic, and it was due to the insane inflation rate.
00:02:15.000 They deleted the tweet.
00:02:17.000 They accidentally celebrated the fact that there's extremely high inflation under Joe Biden.
00:02:22.000 Bravo!
00:02:23.000 Major, major win there.
00:02:25.000 So we'll talk about that.
00:02:26.000 Plus, the new RealClearPolitics projection.
00:02:29.000 It has Republicans winning 54 Senate seats.
00:02:32.000 New Hampshire has now flipped red, according to this projection.
00:02:34.000 So we'll see.
00:02:35.000 We don't know for sure.
00:02:36.000 And Russia is saying the five nuclear powers are on the verge of war, and that's going to get really, really bad.
00:02:40.000 I certainly hope not.

00:03:06.000 Go to losingmymind.net.
00:03:09.000 I'm not sure if it's working on mobile yet, but this is the pre-save for the new song, Genocide, that we're releasing on Friday.
00:03:16.000 If you take a look at that graphic, you might get a general idea of what the song's about.
00:03:21.000 And I'll just leave it at that, because this is YouTube.
00:03:23.000 But again, losingmymind.net, Spotify, Apple, Amazon, Deezer... I don't know what Deezer is.
00:03:29.000 But you can pre-save it so that come Friday morning, you'll be able to listen to the song.
00:03:32.000 We have a video that's going live Friday first thing, and I'm sure it's gonna...
00:03:38.000 Piss a lot of people off, but it's YouTube-friendly.
00:03:40.000 It's just, you know, directly mocking the people who are manipulating and trying to lie, cheat, and steal, and, you know, manufacturing a narrative, as it were.
00:03:50.000 So I'm really excited for this again.
00:03:51.000 LosingMyMind.net, which, honestly, I could not believe was actually available, and I got it for $15.
00:03:56.000 That's amazing!
00:03:58.000 So, super cool.
00:03:59.000 Joining us today to talk about this, and so much more, is Lord Miles!
00:04:04.000 Hey guys.
00:04:05.000 Who are you?
00:04:06.000 My name's Lord Miles and I travel to the most dangerous places in the world.
00:04:10.000 So I've traveled to Afghanistan during the fall of Kabul, front lines of Ukraine and Kharkiv, London in some places, very dangerous places really.
00:04:18.000 So it's all around the world.
00:04:19.000 I'll go anywhere.
00:04:21.000 Right on.
00:04:21.000 You actually have fake immigrant IDs that you were talking about.
00:04:25.000 Oh yeah.
00:04:25.000 So that's crazy.
00:04:27.000 So you found this at the border.
00:04:28.000 Yeah, so I went to the Mexican border at Eagle Pass recently in Texas, and the situation's really bad down there, Tim.
00:04:35.000 I mean, when I was on the Mexican side, there's hundreds of these IDs just littered around, left behind by migrants, because if they can't see where they're from, they'll just send them back to Mexico, and then they can try again to come into this country illegally.
00:04:49.000 Uh, bypassing the real people that are doing it properly.
00:04:53.000 So they have fake IDs to trick their way in.
00:04:55.000 It's not just them walking through, it's them manufacturing fake documents.
00:04:59.000 Yeah, even manufacturing or bribing the police are very people that our governments are funding to actually protect our borders as well.
00:05:06.000 So it's a terrible situation, Tim.
00:05:07.000 Right on.
00:05:08.000 We'll talk about all that too.
00:05:09.000 We got Luke Grudkowski of We Are Change hanging out.
00:05:11.000 Hey guys, interest rates are up, so I decided to wear my banker t-shirt to help people understand what a banker is with the true definition, saying that a banker is, quote, a ruthless scumbag who will eat your lunch and then charge you for it.
00:05:24.000 This is a great way to meet like-minded individuals.
00:05:27.000 I met a couple bankers wearing this shirt.
00:05:29.000 Great conversations, and when you get this shirt, this is the main way that you support me and my efforts here.
00:05:34.000 You could get the shirt on thebestpoliticalshirts.com.
00:05:37.000 Thank you again so much for having me.
00:05:39.000 What I love about banks is that when you're poor, they charge you.
00:05:41.000 And when you're rich, they give you money.
00:05:43.000 That's amazing how that works, isn't it?
00:05:45.000 It's crazy because they're using your money to invest.
00:05:47.000 It's like a big pyramid scheme.
00:05:49.000 And if you're invested in the pyramid, they want to reward you for getting into it.
00:05:52.000 Good to see you, Miles.
00:05:53.000 Oh, thank you.
00:05:54.000 You were in Afghanistan, too.
00:05:55.000 Yeah, it was lovely.
00:05:56.000 Nice little lads holiday, I guess.
00:05:58.000 Ukraine, as well?
00:05:59.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:05:59.000 Bit of a London sometimes.
00:06:00.000 I want to go deep into all this and hear about the last year or so of what you've been up to.
00:06:04.000 Thank you, of course.
00:06:05.000 Also, I second Tim's statement about pre-ordering Genocide, the song.
00:06:09.000 It's incredible.
00:06:10.000 I worked on it.
00:06:11.000 It was really fun to make.
00:06:13.000 He's got the best part in the music video, to be honest.
00:06:15.000 Yeah, it's hilarious.
00:06:16.000 The video's crazy.
00:06:17.000 It's so wild.
00:06:18.000 We made it.
00:06:19.000 Anyway, I won't spoil anything.
00:06:21.000 Get ready for that song coming out Friday.
00:06:22.000 Losing my mind dot net I like it. Yeah, and of course I'm sure com pleasure to meet you miles looking forward to the
00:06:28.000 show Thank you, man. All right. So our first story ladies and
00:06:32.000 gentlemen, Elon Musk says he met with Latino civil rights leader
00:06:36.000 But the organization says she's a rogue ex-employee Okay, sure
00:06:42.000 In a separate statement, the leaders of the NAACP, the National Urban League, and the National Action Network blasted Musk for unleashing the worst of human nature.
00:06:51.000 You see, Elon, look, man, we were fans because you said you liked the Babylon Bee, because you pushed back on the establishment.
00:06:59.000 And then the moment you get into Twitter, not even a week later, you go crawling to these organizations to try and—and he tweets this out.
00:07:07.000 To let them know how we're going to be handling hate and harassment.
00:07:11.000 And what do they do?
00:07:12.000 They attack you for it.
00:07:14.000 Twitter owner Elon Musk, I love that phrase, said early Wednesday that he spoke with the leaders of various civil rights groups about his efforts to combat hate and harassment.
00:07:22.000 Except one organization said he met with a rogue employee who was fired last month, and another attendee blasted the mogul for unleashing the worst of human nature.
00:07:31.000 Actually said that he unwittingly freed people to unleash the worst of human nature with communities of color and religious minorities bearing the greatest burden.
00:07:41.000 So, uh, bravo, Elon.
00:07:43.000 He tweeted, talk to civil society leaders about how Twitter will continue to combat hate and harassment and enforce its election integrity policies.
00:07:51.000 Ah, yes.
00:07:52.000 What's that all about?
00:07:53.000 You see, I'm actually blocked from seeing the tweet from this, uh, Diresta woman.
00:07:58.000 Yoel Roth says we're staying vigilant against attempts to manipulate conversations about the 2022 midterms.
00:08:03.000 Read on for independent analysis of our team's work.
00:08:07.000 And he linked to a woman who was an executive, I believe she was an executive or some high-ranking position, with new knowledge.
00:08:13.000 An organization that was outed for creating bots for manufacturing or doing something.
00:08:19.000 They sent them towards Roy Moore.
00:08:21.000 So that the media would think he was being propped up by Russians.
00:08:25.000 That's what this organization was doing, and Elon's consulting them on election integrity.
00:08:29.000 Okay, I'll tell you what I think.
00:08:31.000 The advertisers went to Elon right away and said, we're pulling out.
00:08:34.000 He said, wait, wait, wait.
00:08:35.000 Like, we're gonna keep policing hate.
00:08:37.000 Trust me, trust me, don't leave, we need your money.
00:08:39.000 And they said, we don't care.
00:08:40.000 Then he said, okay, fine, we'll charge 20 bucks.
00:08:42.000 Then the left said, nope, we're out, we're not paying 20 bucks.
00:08:44.000 He goes, okay, fine, $8, $8.
00:08:46.000 And you know, we said we were like, okay, like if under the assumption that Elon was going to fix the platform and do right by free speech and actual American values, I'll spend more than $8.
00:08:57.000 Then Elon has the nerve to come out and be like, actually, we're going to combat hate with the very same grievance organizations that will never be satisfied.
00:09:05.000 And why?
00:09:06.000 If they are satisfied, they cease to exist.
00:09:09.000 None of these people are going to come out and be like, my job here is done.
00:09:11.000 Fire me because there's no more hate anymore.
00:09:13.000 There will always be hate.
00:09:15.000 If it's not a racial slur, it's the word groomer.
00:09:18.000 So Elon Musk pandering to these people is a waste of our time.
00:09:20.000 I'll tell you this.
00:09:21.000 I am not going to spend any money.
00:09:23.000 Elon, he comes out and he's like, it's going to be $8.
00:09:25.000 Keep complaining.
00:09:26.000 All right, bro, look.
00:09:28.000 I think there's a net positive here with you buying the platform.
00:09:30.000 I'm not going to spend a penny.
00:09:32.000 I cancelled Twitter Blue.
00:09:33.000 It was bad enough I had in the first place.
00:09:35.000 I'm actually, the moment I saw he did this, I was like, okay, I'm giving them less money now.
00:09:38.000 The moment he did this.
00:09:39.000 So I'll tell you, if he releases the information on the DHS and how Twitter was colluding with the government, I'll pay eight bucks.
00:09:48.000 But he's also got to free the political prisoners and fire the people who were involved in the Hunter Biden laptop scandal.
00:09:53.000 Yeah, this was disappointing because he kind of tweeted it like he was bragging about it.
00:09:58.000 And, you know, you mentioned some of the organizations, but some of them you didn't mention were individuals, the president, the vice president of the ADL, the NAACP, the George Bush Foundation.
00:10:10.000 What, Satan wasn't available?
00:10:12.000 Truly?
00:10:13.000 Are you kidding me?
00:10:14.000 And then you're bragging about how you're going to be continuing the policies when it comes to Hate and election interference and again this ... clearly shows a signal that this is going in the wrong ... direction and I'm happy at this time that I have my own website ... that I have my own platform you're probably happy to him ... that you have your own platform as well because at the ... end of the day this is very disappointing news and shows ... us that we're going down a very bad road.
00:10:41.000 I'm a huge advocate of knowing thine enemy and working with your foe.
00:10:45.000 I think Abraham Lincoln talked about it.
00:10:46.000 The best way to win over an enemy, to destroy an enemy, is to make them your friend, your ally.
00:10:51.000 Not only do you no longer have an enemy, but you have an extra ally in case another enemy appears.
00:10:55.000 So I'm into this idea of like getting to know the people that are against you, but at the same time, Trump putting Bolton in his cabinet early on, bad move.
00:11:03.000 Obama getting the Goldman Sachs team or all these like bankers in his inner circle right away.
00:11:10.000 They start to manipulate you.
00:11:11.000 When you surround yourself with people, you become those people.
00:11:14.000 Like, you are a result of your closest six friends or something.
00:11:17.000 So, at some point, you gotta just cut.
00:11:20.000 You gotta cut and run and make a move.
00:11:22.000 I think that Elon came into this with no real plan.
00:11:25.000 And now he's trying to build the plan quickly.
00:11:27.000 That's why he wanted to back out.
00:11:28.000 But take a look at this.
00:11:29.000 This is from The Federalist.
00:11:30.000 Elon Musk taps Jussie Smollett hoaxer for Twitter censorship advice.
00:11:35.000 Ah, brilliant, brilliant.
00:11:36.000 Look, man, I like Elon.
00:11:38.000 He does a lot of really cool stuff, but he has an opportunity to talk to people, and he's choosing to talk to the people who made the problems.
00:11:46.000 One of these guys says, what more evidence does Chicago police need to call what happened to Jussie Smollett what it is?
00:11:52.000 I hate crime.
00:11:53.000 This guy started calling this stuff out after we already knew it was a hoax.
00:11:58.000 And so this is who Elon Musk is going to. Why?
00:12:01.000 You know what man, Elon, I gotta tell you.
00:12:04.000 He's very naive.
00:12:06.000 I will say it again.
00:12:07.000 I met up in Texas with a bunch of these big tech guys.
00:12:10.000 A lot of them were apparently like worked with or friends with Elon.
00:12:13.000 And it was amazing listening to them speak because they do not understand culture.
00:12:20.000 They think it's a technology problem.
00:12:21.000 The reason Elon Musk is meeting with these people is because he's probably like, everyone has got a good point to be made.
00:12:27.000 Technology will solve the problem.
00:12:29.000 And you're like, dude.
00:12:30.000 Independents and conservatives already have stated, we've compromised.
00:12:35.000 We don't like the fringe cult weirdos, but they're allowed to be on the platform and say what they want to say.
00:12:40.000 The fringe cult weirdos went to you and said, if you don't ban all of the people we don't like, we're leaving.
00:12:45.000 And in response, what Jack Dorsey and Vijay got I did was, okay, okay, wait, it's this simple.
00:12:51.000 The right isn't leaving, even when we ban them.
00:12:54.000 And the left is threatening to leave unless we ban more right-wingers.
00:12:57.000 Hey!
00:12:57.000 Let's ban more right-wingers!
00:12:59.000 Let's ban more independents and libertarians and liberals!
00:13:02.000 And now Elon seems to be doing the exact same thing.
00:13:05.000 Now it's early.
00:13:06.000 We'll see what happens.
00:13:07.000 Maybe this is a cold splash of water in the face that'll wake Elon up.
00:13:10.000 The reason why I'm frustrated about it and calling it out right now is because if we don't, Elon will walk down that path and Twitter will become worse than it was before.
00:13:19.000 I think the ideal is to build a neutral platform where everyone can coexist together.
00:13:25.000 The reality is that can't function.
00:13:26.000 You need lots and lots of small platforms that interact with each other.
00:13:31.000 And so you need to censor and moderate Twitter, Elon.
00:13:36.000 That is your job now.
00:13:36.000 You own the network.
00:13:37.000 You control the network.
00:13:38.000 You are the one that needs to censor the network, whether you're censoring it as American law.
00:13:42.000 If it violates American law, then it's off the platform.
00:13:44.000 Child porn, get it off the platform.
00:13:46.000 That's your light censorship or if you're going heavy, it's up to you.
00:13:49.000 But give the code out to everyone so that they can make versions of the site so that they can monitor
00:13:54.000 it and do it the way they want. If they want to do, you know, if you say the word the and you
00:13:58.000 get banned off their platform, fine.
00:14:00.000 But we need lots and lots and lots of terms of service right now. We can't rely on you and your
00:14:05.000 network to do it. And we never should. We never should have to. Yeah. So just to recap, so people
00:14:10.000 understand what's going on here.
00:14:11.000 Twitter's head of safety specifically cited Renée de Rista.
00:14:15.000 She's a part of the New Knowledge organization that Tim just discussed with their activities, what they were doing before.
00:14:22.000 She's also on video discussing censorship with Bill Gates.
00:14:26.000 And then under that, Elon Musk was like, hey, we're also working with George W. Bush in the ADL, and we have a diverse group of voices here.
00:14:33.000 No, you don't.
00:14:35.000 You have a group of individuals who hate free speech.
00:14:37.000 You have a group of individuals who have been trying to punish people for their political speech, and that's essentially what a lot of these organizations represented.
00:14:44.000 I didn't know all of them, but some of the organizations that are involved here that are going to be continuing the policies, as Elon Musk said, is worrying, on top of what Elon Musk said after that, saying specifically, it's going to take a couple weeks to make sure that people are unbanned from this platform.
00:14:58.000 A couple weeks?
00:14:59.000 What are we waiting for?
00:15:00.000 Yeah, no, seriously.
00:15:01.000 I mean, look, You want me to come and spend money?
00:15:05.000 Where's the good faith?
00:15:06.000 This is the way I described it earlier today in my morning show.
00:15:09.000 When I go to McDonald's, I can actually see the burgers under the heat lamps.
00:15:13.000 I know they're sitting right there.
00:15:14.000 You tell me you make burgers, I can see the burgers.
00:15:16.000 Okay, I'm gonna give you eight bucks, hand me one of those burgers.
00:15:18.000 Elon Musk comes in, pay eight bucks and we're gonna do these things.
00:15:21.000 And I'm like, okay, well show me that you actually do that and I'll consider giving you money.
00:15:25.000 For the time being, it looks like this is probably why he didn't wanna buy the platform.
00:15:30.000 It's not just about Whether or not he can monetize it, it's that I'm willing to bet he knew, I wonder, that no matter what he does, the left will refuse to work with him.
00:15:42.000 He's a billionaire.
00:15:43.000 Communists don't want to pay for things and they're not going to pay a billionaire.
00:15:47.000 So maybe he was like, okay, if I buy this platform, there's a lot of communists in this company.
00:15:51.000 They're going to quit no matter what I do.
00:15:53.000 Advertisers are going to pull out no matter what I do.
00:15:56.000 I better not buy it.
00:15:57.000 Then he was forced to buy it.
00:15:59.000 Now he's desperately pleading with them.
00:16:00.000 Please, please, I'll do whatever you say.
00:16:02.000 They said there's already ad agencies boycotting Twitter.
00:16:06.000 So, strip it down to the bare bones.
00:16:08.000 Make it a protocol or do something.
00:16:09.000 Let the company just fizzle.
00:16:11.000 Who cares, man?
00:16:13.000 Well, probably that Saudi Prince cares.
00:16:14.000 I think he's still got a few billion in the deal right now.
00:16:18.000 Oh, yeah.
00:16:18.000 Elon bit off more than he can chew with this one.
00:16:20.000 I wonder if the people that helped him, because he didn't front the 44 billion.
00:16:24.000 I know there's other people involved.
00:16:25.000 Saudi Prince is one of them.
00:16:27.000 If they have decision-making power, I don't think so.
00:16:29.000 I think Elon's got sole decision-making power, but I wonder if they're like...
00:16:32.000 Are you going to make this profitable, dude?
00:16:33.000 Because you said you were going to make this profitable.
00:16:35.000 Now the advertisers are leaving.
00:16:37.000 It's go time.
00:16:39.000 What's the income model?
00:16:40.000 He's like $20 a month.
00:16:41.000 I mean, the way he went from $20 a month to $8 a month in like a day kind of indicates that he had no plan.
00:16:48.000 And he's just like almost like having fun at this point.
00:16:52.000 So, honestly, I don't think the whole, like, wait two weeks to unban people is that big of a deal.
00:16:56.000 You know, we waited this long.
00:16:57.000 It's been a year and a half.
00:16:58.000 I think that two weeks is reasonable for a new owner to make a move on his network.
00:17:03.000 I disagree.
00:17:04.000 If Elon Musk is not going to come in with a sledgehammer, he's never going to come up with a sledgehammer.
00:17:08.000 He's going to keep trying to say, OK, OK, leftists, OK, OK, I'm trying, I'm trying, please.
00:17:14.000 I know you're screaming at me because, you know, the reality is I don't like saying the right, because post-liberals, suspected liberals, they're not right-wing.
00:17:23.000 I guess they are now, whatever.
00:17:25.000 There's never any uproar.
00:17:28.000 Like, Twitter never feared that Dave Rubin or Carl Benjamin would march with a bunch of liberalists and classic liberals, Twitter HQ, with pitchforks.
00:17:37.000 They've consistently feared it will be the left.
00:17:40.000 No one cares when a bunch of conservative—rarely, I should say, but it's happened.
00:17:44.000 But the right typically doesn't start boycotts and go after big corporations.
00:17:48.000 When they do, it works.
00:17:49.000 But the left does it all the time.
00:17:52.000 So right now, Twitter, be it under Elon Musk or Vijay Gadde, they know That they can do whatever they want, and the right has a higher tolerance for BS, and the left has zero tolerance.
00:18:03.000 So if you want to create a balanced platform, you've got to give the left whatever they want, because the right, the adults, will roll their eyes and be upset about it.
00:18:11.000 The left will have a temper tantrum, claim you're trying to murder them, and then quit the platform in anger.
00:18:16.000 Which is what's happening right now.
00:18:17.000 It does get worse.
00:18:20.000 We have this, in this tweet thread, Mike Cernovich.
00:18:23.000 To give you the context for those just tuning in, Yoel Roth, a guy who claimed Trump was a Nazi, head of safety, says we are staying vigilant against attempts to manipulate conversations about the 2022 midterms.
00:18:34.000 Read on for independent analysis of our team's work.
00:18:37.000 Unfortunately, we can't.
00:18:39.000 Because I'm blocked by a person I don't know.
00:18:42.000 That's ideological neutrality, I guess, eh, Elon?
00:18:45.000 Elon Musk responded, saying he's working with these grievance organizations.
00:18:48.000 But this woman, Whose Twitter account, I can't see because I am blocked, is Renee DiResta.
00:18:54.000 Mike Cernovich points out, Renee DiResta is the director of research at cybersecurity company NewKnowledge and head of policy at the non-profit Data for Democracy.
00:19:04.000 NewKnowledge got caught buying Russian bots to follow Roy Moore on Twitter during the 2018 midterms.
00:19:10.000 That's an odd source to rely on for an independent analysis of the 2020-2022 midterms.
00:19:16.000 So, where's the rest of Mike's tweets?
00:19:17.000 Why are they breaking it up like that's kind of weird?
00:19:20.000 They did that.
00:19:20.000 Anyway, Mike Cernovich goes on to point out, for some reason Twitter's not loading it.
00:19:24.000 That's fascinating, I guess.
00:19:26.000 There we go.
00:19:27.000 When Russian bots began following Roy Moore in 2017, it was treated as a huge national story.
00:19:33.000 Moore was mocked for blaming Democrats.
00:19:35.000 Yes, Democrats bought the bots and hoaxed the willing press.
00:19:40.000 Now someone who works for new knowledge, the same firm, is on 2022 integrity.
00:19:44.000 That actually sounds Basically as bad as the DHS conspiring with Twitter to manipulate elections.
00:19:53.000 Elon Musk is now actively working with an organization that manipulated the elections to help Democrats.
00:19:58.000 Okay?
00:20:00.000 So, I mean, I'm sorry guys.
00:20:01.000 If it's a bit, you know, it's blackpilling or whatever you want to say.
00:20:05.000 It's pessimistic.
00:20:07.000 It's what's happening.
00:20:08.000 What do you think, Miles, about this?
00:20:10.000 Will this impact your use of Twitter?
00:20:13.000 How do you think Elon is doing here?
00:20:15.000 Oh yeah, I've got no backup.
00:20:17.000 I'm completely screwed on social media if it goes south.
00:20:19.000 But truthfully, I never really had faith on Elon Musk because he's in bed with these people, these corporations and really powerful people.
00:20:26.000 And no matter what, like a cult, you'll be pressured into it, otherwise you'll be kicked out of the circle and everything collapses behind you like a sandcastle when the tide comes in.
00:20:34.000 These people Are not living in reality, are they?
00:20:38.000 They don't understand how things work, how society works, and also how a platform like this works.
00:20:42.000 And no matter what, like Tim said, these people are children.
00:20:45.000 They're gonna throw a fit until everything collapses apart.
00:20:48.000 Now, I just really hope Elon Musk gets to a point where he gets so upset, he just doubles down and just says, hey, guys, it's gonna be a right-wing utopia.
00:20:57.000 Right-wing in quotations.
00:20:58.000 And then those people will realise that their screaming and whining will not do anything.
00:21:03.000 And then from there, something is actually built.
00:21:05.000 Something better for our future where we can invest knowing that our free speech will be upheld.
00:21:10.000 But I don't see it happening.
00:21:11.000 I'm pessimistic.
00:21:12.000 But I guess we just gotta let it go and roll out and see what time says.
00:21:16.000 It's beyond just the woke left screaming, though.
00:21:18.000 I mean, true.
00:21:19.000 This is election interference.
00:21:21.000 This is Elon Musk colluding with an organization that interfered in the 2018 midterms to help Democrats win.
00:21:28.000 As they're bragging how they're going to have control of this upcoming midterm election.
00:21:33.000 They're literally saying, hey, Same people that did this.
00:21:36.000 We're the same guys who are going to be watching what's going to be happening in the upcoming midterm, and they're bragging about it.
00:21:41.000 That's mud in your face.
00:21:42.000 That's absolutely disrespectful.
00:21:45.000 And as you mentioned, Miles, again, yeah, he has a lot of government contracts.
00:21:49.000 He does a lot of business with China.
00:21:50.000 And with that comes a lot of pressure.
00:21:53.000 Because when you're working with the government that's giving you a lot of money, the government could say, we're going to give you a little bit less.
00:21:58.000 You know, those satellites, you know, those spaceships, you know, maybe we don't want to finance you.
00:22:03.000 Maybe we don't want to do this if you will do this or do this or do this for us.
00:22:07.000 Musk also, you know, promoted world government before.
00:22:10.000 He's a transhumanist.
00:22:11.000 He supported the vaccines, carbon tax, a universal basic income.
00:22:15.000 So a lot of the policies that he puts forward should be obviously questioned, since I would say they go along with an agenda that is very questionable as well.
00:22:23.000 Yeah, it lines up a little bit with the World Economic Forum.
00:22:25.000 Yeah, a little bit too much.
00:22:27.000 I like that the guy likes memes.
00:22:29.000 I like that he triggered a lot of these people.
00:22:31.000 And there is, there was a Republican I think in Arizona who got suspended.
00:22:31.000 All those are net positives.
00:22:36.000 Elon said looking into it, and the guy got reinstated.
00:22:38.000 So we don't know for a fact Elon did that.
00:22:41.000 There are net positives here.
00:22:42.000 I don't want to come out and just be like, the end is nigh, and Elon's terrible.
00:22:46.000 I think there's bad things he's doing.
00:22:48.000 And we need to tell him we will not tolerate it.
00:22:52.000 So he's coming out and saying, oh, everybody's mad at me.
00:22:55.000 He's like, the left and the right are both mad at me.
00:22:57.000 And it's like, dude, who do you think is going to pay the money?
00:23:00.000 The left hates you.
00:23:01.000 They've always hated you.
00:23:02.000 And they're quitting the platform and lying about you.
00:23:06.000 They're coming out saying, since Elon took over, hate's gotten substantially worse.
00:23:10.000 Despite the fact that Elon's team has said, no, we've actually been policing.
00:23:14.000 These are bot accounts and we're getting rid of them.
00:23:16.000 Doesn't matter.
00:23:17.000 Democrats are coming out and saying that he's charging $8 for free speech.
00:23:22.000 Maybe Elon must learn that these people are whiny babies that will never be satisfied unless you give them everything.
00:23:29.000 And if you're not willing to give them everything, then you need to tell them to go bye-bye.
00:23:32.000 There's the room.
00:23:34.000 You can go hang out and play by yourself.
00:23:35.000 Go to your other social media network, but they're not going to be here.
00:23:38.000 They're never going to be satisfied.
00:23:39.000 Oh, exactly.
00:23:40.000 And the thing is, too, these big leftist accounts, most of them are bots anyway.
00:23:44.000 They have no real following in the real world.
00:23:47.000 On paper, maybe, yes.
00:23:49.000 But Elon has to remember, at the end of the day, the right-wing people are the ones that actually are supporting him, like you said.
00:23:55.000 And if we get behind him and rally him to actually do the right thing, things will come together.
00:24:00.000 At the end of the day, though, I think things are screwed.
00:24:04.000 I think Elon Musk is going to crumble.
00:24:05.000 He's going to give in.
00:24:06.000 What do you guys think?
00:24:07.000 What about $750, Elon?
00:24:09.000 Can we do $750?
00:24:10.000 I'm just joking.
00:24:13.000 I'd pay $20.
00:24:15.000 He's offering up for Twitter a suite of premium tools, and it does help get rid of bots, all that.
00:24:21.000 I'm totally down for that.
00:24:22.000 I do think he should be paying top creators, which he also announced is in the pipeline.
00:24:27.000 But I'm not going to give any money until he frees the political prisoners.
00:24:31.000 I'm not going to spend money on a platform that sucks.
00:24:33.000 And Twitter's sucked for a long time.
00:24:35.000 I barely care about it.
00:24:36.000 I post garbage nonsense memes like advocating for war and neutering children.
00:24:40.000 Come on.
00:24:41.000 Or is taking the advice and policies from the people that made it suck and are going to make it suck that much more, which he's bragging about today, which again, it's still early.
00:24:49.000 A lot of people are arguing like, hey, we're still not even a week in here.
00:24:54.000 Let's see what happens here.
00:24:54.000 Let's give him time.
00:24:55.000 But I think during this time, I think we're at a crucial point where we need to hold his feet to the fire.
00:25:00.000 We need to criticize him whenever he goofs up.
00:25:03.000 I think this was a major goof up.
00:25:05.000 I think this also highlights a major problem moving forward that could be very significant for the prospects of free speech.
00:25:11.000 And I'm willing to pay $20.
00:25:12.000 I'm willing to pay $100 if we have free speech.
00:25:16.000 These organizations that he's working with don't support free speech, and that's a big problem.
00:25:20.000 It's funny, Elon did say he bought Twitter to help save humanity, right?
00:25:24.000 Yep.
00:25:25.000 What if his plan is to destroy it?
00:25:27.000 Because, you know, Twitter is just bad.
00:25:29.000 Well, he's got the spaceships, too.
00:25:30.000 He's planning to leave it and start his own humanity, I guess.
00:25:32.000 You never know.
00:25:33.000 You mean destroy Twitter, not destroy Earth.
00:25:35.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:25:36.000 Well, it's the same thing if you've got leftist eyes, you know?
00:25:38.000 He buys Twitter and then disassembles it and gives the parts out to the masses.
00:25:43.000 That's exactly what we should do.
00:25:43.000 It's brilliant.
00:25:45.000 That would be amazing, honestly.
00:25:48.000 I would love to see it.
00:25:51.000 Too many people tie their net worth, their personal self-worth, to their Twitter accounts, their verification badges, their following and all that stuff.
00:25:59.000 And I'm just like, we need to take a figurative bucket full of ice water and splash it in somebody's face.
00:26:06.000 There are too many people that look at this and they're like, it's all I have.
00:26:10.000 I would laugh if I woke up and Twitter was just gone.
00:26:14.000 And when you go to twitter.com, it's a picture of Elon Musk giving a thumbs up saying Twitter was bad for you from the get-go, so suck it.
00:26:20.000 I'd be like, HA!
00:26:21.000 Or the doge.
00:26:22.000 The dog.
00:26:22.000 Doge dog.
00:26:23.000 Oh, I got my Twitter shares.
00:26:25.000 I got cashed out.
00:26:26.000 The money appeared in my account.
00:26:28.000 So you're in Doge now?
00:26:29.000 I just put it all in Doge.
00:26:29.000 That's not a bad idea.
00:26:30.000 I've got about 6,500 Doge coins sitting there in the wings.
00:26:34.000 Because I think Doge is essentially going to be Twitter stock.
00:26:36.000 You know, I'm optimistic about this because Elon essentially purchased Twitter off of BlackRock.
00:26:42.000 He bought it away from the global cartels, the international, you know, megacorps, and now he's taking it private.
00:26:48.000 Or it's about to become private.
00:26:49.000 I don't know if it's technically off the public market now.
00:26:52.000 Is it already?
00:26:52.000 It's probably done now.
00:26:53.000 now it's private. Yeah, so we talked about the negative.
00:26:55.000 Let's talk about some of the positives here, because again, we got to be honest here.
00:26:59.000 There are some things to be optimistic about, like Ian mentioned here. There still is a prospect.
00:27:04.000 There is still a possibility that a lot of people could be brought back. And let's talk
00:27:07.000 about some of the positives here. Viva Frey has been brought back. He didn't have to
00:27:11.000 admit he was wrong to get his account back. He got his account back, which is great. A
00:27:14.000 Republican running in Arizona, I think, got his account back without having to apologize.
00:27:18.000 He's responding to individuals that were hurt by the platform before wrongly and saying,
00:27:22.000 don't worry, I'll fix this. Just give me some time.
00:27:25.000 If you're optimistic, if you want to believe in him and have faith in him, sure, believe in him.
00:27:30.000 There's also the interaction he had with AOC today, which was absolutely hilarious.
00:27:35.000 And the White House fact check, which is absolute gold and... No, no, I'm not giving him credit for the White House fact check.
00:27:41.000 Why was that?
00:27:42.000 Because that already was happening.
00:27:44.000 Before him?
00:27:45.000 I knew it was happening to Donald Trump.
00:27:47.000 No, but it was happening across the board well before Elon Musk took over.
00:27:51.000 It's just, we're in election season and they've made some mistakes.
00:27:54.000 I haven't noticed it before, until now.
00:27:56.000 This AOC thing is funny.
00:27:57.000 She said, LMAO at a billionaire earnestly trying to sell people on the idea that free speech is actually an $8 a month subscription plan.
00:28:05.000 You see, Elon responded, your feedback is appreciated, now pay $8.
00:28:09.000 Elon, she's lying.
00:28:11.000 When did anyone say that free speech is eight bucks?
00:28:14.000 No, free speech is free.
00:28:16.000 You can get a free account on Twitter.
00:28:18.000 If you want premium services, that costs money.
00:28:22.000 But she's lying.
00:28:23.000 I don't get it.
00:28:24.000 Does Elon not get that these people are liars?
00:28:28.000 Free speech isn't free.
00:28:29.000 Free speech requires taxes to pay for a military to guard your borders so that you can say things without getting shot in the back.
00:28:35.000 Ian, stop being totalitarian.
00:28:37.000 Stop it.
00:28:38.000 We are defending our ability to have free speech.
00:28:42.000 Free speech exists, and it is an inherent right given by God.
00:28:46.000 Because we have guns to defend it.
00:28:47.000 No, that's not true.
00:28:49.000 Well, duh.
00:28:50.000 If we didn't have guns to defend it, we'd get conquered by the CCP and would no longer have free speech.
00:28:54.000 Uh, excuse me, Ian.
00:28:56.000 If you're standing in China, can you yell out, F the CCP?
00:28:59.000 I don't think so.
00:29:00.000 Your mouth just doesn't move.
00:29:00.000 Well, you can't.
00:29:01.000 You're like... You can, but I don't know if you'll get the last word out.
00:29:04.000 Like in Doctor Strange, when the, you know, black, whatever, the fork guy, whatever his name is.
00:29:10.000 Who's that guy you know I'm talking about?
00:29:11.000 He's got the fork or whatever.
00:29:12.000 And then they're like, he could kill you with one whisper.
00:29:16.000 And then she's like, wet mouth.
00:29:17.000 And he's like, That's what happens when you go to China.
00:29:20.000 Bro, you can speak.
00:29:21.000 It happens.
00:29:22.000 What you're saying is that some people may try and stop you.
00:29:24.000 You don't need a government for that.
00:29:26.000 If you're in the middle of the woods, you can say whatever you want.
00:29:28.000 I'm talking about legal free speech, like American legal free speech, First Amendment stuff.
00:29:32.000 It's protected by guns.
00:29:34.000 And that's funded by money from taxes.
00:29:36.000 Okay, but that's not what Elon Musk is arguing here.
00:29:38.000 Elon Musk is saying specifically, hey, AOC, you want to use the platform?
00:29:41.000 It's free.
00:29:42.000 You don't have to pay $8 for a verified badge.
00:29:45.000 He also went on a tweet storm.
00:29:47.000 He tweeted some of her merchandise.
00:29:49.000 That's $58 for a sweater.
00:29:52.000 He then also posted a bunch of memes, one of them being an NPC laughing and being really happy, smiling about an $8 Starbucks latte, and then crying about $8 Per month to have a verified badge on Twitter.
00:30:05.000 So props to him being in the meme game and going against these people and then willing to stand up for what he believes in.
00:30:11.000 He's also talking about setting up a video paywall, which some news organizations are talking about could rival adult websites.
00:30:18.000 Now, if that happens, that, again, is questionable and negative for societies.
00:30:22.000 This is what a lot of the mainstream media publications said, that if he offers a paywall for video, he's going to be in direct competition with the adult websites who do something very similar.
00:30:33.000 That would be, again, a net negative, since there is a lot of adult content already on Twitter.
00:30:37.000 I think it's 13 or 18 percent of Twitter is adult content.
00:30:41.000 And that is a net negative and is somehow allowed, which is still weird, which they might arbitrarily use against him in the future because that's another weak point of Twitter that somehow is able to do this and other platforms aren't on the major app stores.
00:30:55.000 That's a good point.
00:30:57.000 Mines was actually removed from the Google App Store because porn was showing up on the site unmoderated.
00:31:01.000 We were like, hey, Twitter has porn.
00:31:03.000 Wasn't it one nipple?
00:31:04.000 Yeah, it was something inane, innocuous.
00:31:06.000 It wasn't a lot, and we were attempting to moderate it, but because there was so much, and there were human moderators, and there were seven of us or something, we couldn't keep up.
00:31:14.000 It's a rigged game, man.
00:31:15.000 A few things get reported.
00:31:17.000 Someone did super chat.
00:31:19.000 Let me see who had the super chat.
00:31:21.000 We normally save them, but somebody got a point.
00:31:23.000 Brenben, is that what it says?
00:31:26.000 According to JeremyTheQuartering, Elon has to play ball because there's the Google Play Store and server factors to keep in mind.
00:31:32.000 Also, Yoel Roth is only there, still, because he knows where the bodies are.
00:31:37.000 It's a fair point.
00:31:38.000 You know, so we'll see, but Elon doesn't need to be tweeting this stuff out to VirtuSignal.
00:31:43.000 What's the point?
00:31:43.000 Like, what, is Twitter gonna get banned from the Play Store?
00:31:46.000 Why would that happen?
00:31:48.000 Well, probably.
00:31:49.000 I mean, maybe.
00:31:50.000 Because of collusion.
00:31:51.000 Well, it's happened a few times.
00:31:53.000 There's an app called iFunny.
00:31:54.000 It was free speech.
00:31:55.000 Anyone could say anything.
00:31:56.000 It was actually quite well moderated to some degree.
00:31:58.000 You know, nothing dodgy on there.
00:32:00.000 But it got taken off 20 or something times when something blows up and leaks outside this app.
00:32:05.000 So I think at some point it may double down.
00:32:07.000 Just take it out of the App Store or the Play Store.
00:32:09.000 Parler got banned because Donald Trump was threatening to be on that platform.
00:32:13.000 So we saw collusion.
00:32:14.000 If you think there's collusion with big tech social media, there's obviously collusion with all the big app stores.
00:32:20.000 Obviously, they're also going to be targeting people politically, just like they do on big tech social media.
00:32:24.000 And this is just one avenue.
00:32:26.000 And there could be a possibility here that we have to entertain of the DHS coming down and be like, we'll take you off the app store.
00:32:33.000 We'll make sure you guys get hit for all the adult website stuff you have on your on your thing.
00:32:37.000 We'll make sure you guys get punished.
00:32:40.000 Unless, of course, you allow George W. Bush and its foundation, along with the ADL, to decide how we're going to be playing by the rules here.
00:32:47.000 So that could be happening right now, and that, again, is another possibility that is worth considering.
00:32:52.000 On the other side, though, truth social is allowed on the App Store, right?
00:32:57.000 And everyone hates Trump on the left, right?
00:32:59.000 They kicked him off Twitter, but he's on the App Store, so there is hope for Twitter in the end of the day.
00:33:04.000 Yeah, I think that Google, the transhumanists and the technologists, the technocrats, they don't play the left-right paradigm.
00:33:12.000 They're looking for the most value and efficiency out of the system, fortunately.
00:33:17.000 But the DHS, like you said, has influence with them.
00:33:21.000 But that's why, you know, you free the software code, we'll build a decentralized app store, we can make F-Droid go mainstream.
00:33:27.000 It's a little Wild West, like you can download an app that has a virus in it, you gotta be careful on F-Droid, but it's better than relying on Google and Apple for our sole iStore monopoly.
00:33:35.000 Like, we gotta break up the app store monopoly.
00:33:39.000 Agreed.
00:33:39.000 I wanna talk about some domestic politics, but I wanna talk about this first, so we can talk about some international stuff, from the Daily Mail.
00:33:45.000 The world's five nuclear superpowers are on the brink of a direct armed conflict, which will have catastrophic consequences.
00:33:53.000 The Kremlin said on Wednesday that avoiding nuclear clash was its first priority.
00:33:57.000 Western capitals have said Moscow is behind a ramping up of nuclear rhetoric.
00:34:01.000 Russia said that it stood by a joint declaration for avoiding a nuclear war.
00:34:05.000 I respect it.
00:34:06.000 Vladimir Putin has appeared on several occasions to threaten a nuclear strike.
00:34:10.000 There's even some reporting that Putin tried to launch a nuke but was sabotaged.
00:34:15.000 By who?
00:34:15.000 We don't know.
00:34:16.000 Aliens?
00:34:17.000 Perhaps.
00:34:18.000 Perhaps not, but that's what at least one report said.
00:34:22.000 So I'm wondering, Lord Miles, you're actually on the ground in Ukraine.
00:34:26.000 Oh, yes.
00:34:26.000 You've witnessed a lot of this stuff.
00:34:28.000 I'm curious if you think we're facing an escalation that could bring us to a nuclear conflict, or will it just remain regional?
00:34:34.000 What do you think?
00:34:35.000 Well, I think it'll be good business for me, but if I have to think about what would happen, I think it would be a very small tactical nuke that might go off.
00:34:42.000 But at the same time, if you establish that a nuclear war can be done tactically, it'll open up the floodgates, Pandora's box, and nukes will start flying.
00:34:50.000 I feel like if the US sent a nuclear retaliation, it'll probably hit Twitter HQ before it hits Russia.
00:34:55.000 But I do think it would happen.
00:34:57.000 Putin is desperate right now.
00:34:59.000 He wants this land.
00:35:00.000 He's fantasized about it since the Soviet Union fell apart.
00:35:04.000 And he's desperate because he realizes the whole country would turn against him.
00:35:07.000 And with that much pressure on him right now, people don't think straight.
00:35:11.000 What if there's a false flag?
00:35:13.000 What if there's a strike on Russian soil?
00:35:18.000 He could probably then rally popular support in Russia to do whatever he wants.
00:35:21.000 Yeah, I wouldn't have went past him because the U.S.
00:35:23.000 government would do this too.
00:35:24.000 He might set off, he might do a false flag himself, cause a nuclear bomb to go off in some remote area of Siberia or whatever.
00:35:31.000 Say there was some terrorists going on that have been sent from Ukraine and then just everyone rallies behind him and some other countries send extra troops and... I don't think Siberia.
00:35:40.000 I think Moscow.
00:35:41.000 You think?
00:35:42.000 I mean, yeah, absolutely.
00:35:43.000 Yeah, the Russians are known for just throwing away their men like they're just toy top soldiers.
00:35:48.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:35:48.000 They're the Zap Brannigan of international conflict.
00:35:52.000 The Soviets, not the Russians.
00:35:53.000 It was the Soviets that did that.
00:35:55.000 Well, pretty much the same thing.
00:35:56.000 No, Russia's its own beast, man.
00:35:58.000 Sure, sure.
00:35:58.000 The Russian people are ancient.
00:36:01.000 Well, and also, there's a possibility that the opposite of this could happen.
00:36:04.000 There could be a false flag by Ukraine or by Western powers inside of Ukraine, and they could blame Russia for it and then also use that.
00:36:11.000 Again, there's a lot of potential for false flags.
00:36:14.000 It's not just the United States or Russia or Ukraine that has the potential of launching them.
00:36:18.000 It's also independent third parties, corporations, the military-industrial complex that has a lot to gain and win here.
00:36:24.000 But this is an absolutely crazy disastrous situation.
00:36:27.000 The West is not trying to give any kind of easy way out for Vladimir Putin.
00:36:31.000 Vladimir Putin has put himself in an extremely difficult situation.
00:36:34.000 There's a lot of people being negatively affected by this inside of Ukraine right now.
00:36:38.000 Their energy infrastructure has been targeted.
00:36:40.000 They're facing a dark winter to the point where they're telling their refugees not to come back to the country because they won't know if they're going to have enough energy to heat the country.
00:36:49.000 So this is a major problem.
00:36:51.000 This is a humanitarian crisis.
00:36:53.000 This is something that we need to deal with, that we need to deescalate and come to a table where we could negotiate a peace deal.
00:37:00.000 But the exact opposite of that is happening, and they're calling for more escalations, more war, more military contracts, which I think is absolutely stupid.
00:37:08.000 I want to- oh, were you going to say something else?
00:37:09.000 Oh yeah, well, thank you.
00:37:11.000 We've got to realise why the war actually begun and it's because Russia fears that NATO is moving closer and the corridor, the actual length of Europe is opening up for them so they can't defend their borders easier because it's so wide.
00:37:24.000 if they move further down, you know, it's narrower and they can easily defend that area,
00:37:28.000 especially with the geographical boundaries. So if they did drop tactical nukes in a straight line
00:37:32.000 down, they could claim part of Ukraine, but also means NATO can't move in even further. And no
00:37:37.000 army's gonna send their people through a nuclear wasteland, right? They'd just straight up die from
00:37:42.000 nuclear radiation poisoning and so on. So it could be the only way he secures the borders and the
00:37:48.000 security of Russia in general against NATO. I mean- A radioactive wall.
00:37:53.000 Yeah, basically.
00:37:54.000 I mean, that's what I think it was Douglas Arthur thought about with China to protect against North Korean aggression, right?
00:38:03.000 Because China was supplying North Korea during the Korean War.
00:38:06.000 He proposed, let's drop a line of nukes.
00:38:09.000 And they said, no, that's crazy.
00:38:10.000 But to be fair, it could work.
00:38:13.000 It could work to stop humans from walking, maybe, but I don't know.
00:38:18.000 It would just be insanity.
00:38:19.000 And you got the Russians working with the French on building a fusion reactor right now.
00:38:23.000 That's so weird.
00:38:24.000 They said that they want to avoid at all costs the nuclear war.
00:38:27.000 I think the actual, what's the quote?
00:38:30.000 Russia is strictly and consistently guided by the tenet that a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.
00:38:34.000 This is the Russian foreign ministry, according to NBC News.
00:38:38.000 I mean, it could be won.
00:38:40.000 It just means the aftermath is you live in a bunker for a little while.
00:38:42.000 Right, and that's not a winning.
00:38:44.000 And then afterwards a few hundred people try to rebuild society.
00:38:46.000 It's like how even the poor in modern society are richer than the richest kings from 500 years ago.
00:38:51.000 We're all winning.
00:38:53.000 It's important to note here that a lot of people escalating this conflict have nuclear bunkers.
00:38:57.000 And they won't have to deal with the larger consequences of the larger problems of them escalating this conflict.
00:39:02.000 Sorry, Ian, I cut you off.
00:39:04.000 I wanted to clarify this statement about the Soviet Union and Russia and how they're different.
00:39:07.000 It's kind of like if the Nazis had won World War II and created a new country called or a new empire called the Third Reich and Germany was part of the Third Reich.
00:39:16.000 And then so the Soviet Union was like the Third Reich.
00:39:18.000 It was this weird totalitarian regime that took over Russia and all these foreign other countries.
00:39:23.000 So now we finally got rid of like the Soviet Nazi Party and now we're back to like what Germany would be if we had dispelled the not the Third Reich later.
00:39:30.000 It would still have like remnants of it, but it's Germany is not the Third Reich.
00:39:34.000 But Ian, the Soviet Union was largely Russia.
00:39:38.000 With satellite states.
00:39:39.000 Yeah, they used Russia.
00:39:41.000 The Bolsheviks used Russia.
00:39:43.000 They definitely took it, but it wasn't like... Are Germans still German after World War II?
00:39:48.000 Yeah, and when the fall of the Soviet Union happened, Russia was the centerpiece, and that is literally the remnant core of the Soviet Union.
00:39:55.000 Yeah, yeah, it is.
00:39:56.000 Like, Vladimir Putin was KGB.
00:39:59.000 Yeah.
00:39:59.000 Right.
00:40:00.000 It'd be like if we finally got rid of the Third Reich seven, twenty years ago, they'd be like, hey, he used to be a Nazi.
00:40:05.000 Well, duh, that was the government of the Third Reich.
00:40:08.000 And when we mention the tactics of the Nazis, we'd be like, that was Germany, the country that still exists.
00:40:13.000 Yeah.
00:40:14.000 It was the Nazis that had usurped the German throne.
00:40:16.000 Miles, if I could just ask you really quickly, from your experiences on the ground there, were people worried about this escalating?
00:40:22.000 Were people worried about nuclear explosions and tactical nukes when you were there?
00:40:27.000 What was the gist of what people were seeing there and what they were thinking was going to happen there?
00:40:33.000 So I was speaking mainly to the women and children at first and a lot of them don't have a hope in the war because they know their governments like Ukraine is very corrupt in general and I'm pro-Ukraine but you know they have a lot of issues.
00:40:44.000 So they don't think that Ukraine's gonna be acting in their best interest in general and they talked about the idea of a nuclear weapon going off because they know if a nuclear weapon goes off That the Ukrainian government will get tons of funding and support and everything like they're doing now.
00:40:59.000 So they'll probably let it happen or even escalate it to that point on purpose.
00:41:03.000 That's some of their theories.
00:41:05.000 And some of the soldiers I was speaking to on the front lines of Kharkiv are saying, yeah, we're seeing this right now, we're actually winning.
00:41:11.000 We can see them being squeezed, basically.
00:41:13.000 And when they get squeezed, they go panic and something will be set off.
00:41:17.000 But they also told me how the nuclear weapon system works in Russia.
00:41:23.000 So in the US, you know, Joe Biden, he has a Joe Biden moment, maybe presses a button.
00:41:28.000 He has a nuclear football.
00:41:29.000 Exactly.
00:41:30.000 But in Russia, how it works is the president calls up a nuclear submarine, goes, ring, ring, hello, nuke, please.
00:41:38.000 And then all those people have to agree on it.
00:41:40.000 So there's a two step verification.
00:41:43.000 Verification system actually it's I think it's like someone in the General Assembly and then they have to So it's a number of people that do have to agree that they're going to be launching the nuke and this could be why Allegedly, we're hearing reports again.
00:41:54.000 I'm very skeptical whenever we hear You know Putin was sabotaged here and here because again, you can't trust a lot of these reports There's no evidence behind them, but it's three phone calls that need to be made and three different groups of people that have to decide Yes, we're launching this nuke Exactly, yeah.
00:42:08.000 Unlike the United States, where Biden just brings in the nuclear football launch.
00:42:12.000 Exactly, yeah.
00:42:12.000 And you've got to think of the psychology of these people.
00:42:14.000 So, these ordinary people working for military in a nuclear submarine, not earning so much.
00:42:19.000 You've got to think, okay, well, they were in the Soviet Union, obviously, because they've climbed so high since then.
00:42:24.000 And those were the glory days, where things were a lot better than they are now, right?
00:42:28.000 And they had that national pride.
00:42:30.000 They thought they were top of the world.
00:42:31.000 They were a superpower at that point.
00:42:33.000 And now they're probably demoralized and they're thinking, well, you know, is it really worth launching a nuke?
00:42:38.000 Do I really believe in my leader?
00:42:40.000 Is our country still great right now?
00:42:41.000 It's like America's problem as well.
00:42:43.000 So I honestly think it might just stop.
00:42:47.000 They might order a nuke and then they say, hell no, I don't want my women back home, my mother, my wife, my sister to get nuked by the opposite country because, you know, nuclear exchange.
00:42:58.000 I think one thing we didn't consider about nuclear war is that by the time we would ever reach
00:43:05.000 this kind of this level of crisis, our cultures would have decayed to the point where no one
00:43:09.000 cares enough about each other for this to matter. So, you know, even in Russia, they're experiencing
00:43:13.000 cultural decay. Across Europe, it's cultural decay. In the United States, it's cultural
00:43:17.000 decay. I'd imagine, you know, in the 50s, people were much more like, America, we're
00:43:22.000 Woo!
00:43:23.000 Like, as a nation, much more unified.
00:43:25.000 Not anymore.
00:43:25.000 I mean, America—Americans are at each other's throats.
00:43:27.000 And it's not even just the left and the right.
00:43:29.000 There's subfactions of leftists fighting Democrats and libertarians arguing with conservatives to varying degrees.
00:43:34.000 It's serious.
00:43:36.000 I can't imagine that someone's going to be like, I have to do this to save my people.
00:43:40.000 They're going to be like, what people?
00:43:42.000 I want to be rich.
00:43:43.000 Yeah, a lot of people have been dehumanized.
00:43:45.000 And I think that's another aspect that we should understand here when it comes to this kind of proxy war that has people killing each other in the fields.
00:43:53.000 There's a great movie that just came out on Netflix.
00:43:56.000 What was it called?
00:43:57.000 Everyone's talking about it right now.
00:43:59.000 The World War One movie?
00:44:00.000 World War One movie, absolutely great movie, and it shows you the shocking horror of realities and how these politicians and these bureaucrats in their high towers that are literally deciding, you know what?
00:44:12.000 Just go kill each other.
00:44:13.000 Just go murder each other.
00:44:14.000 And the movie critiqued that very heavily.
00:44:18.000 All Quiet on the Western Front.
00:44:22.000 Definitely worth a watch to understand here because the same footage that I saw in that movie, it's the same footage that I'm seeing when I'm trying to do my research on what's happening in Ukraine and watching the footage from the Russians and the Ukrainians.
00:44:32.000 It's almost identical when it comes to the bombing, the trench warfare, the hand-to-hand combat that you sometimes see, the blood, the explosions.
00:44:41.000 It's something that is absolutely uncomfortable, unnatural for humanity to deal with.
00:44:46.000 This is why a lot of people have PTSD.
00:44:48.000 This is why the human body isn't, you know, destined, isn't okay with killing another human being, but for some reason when someone puts on a special costume and a uniform and tells someone else to do it, they do it.
00:45:00.000 That is a stupid, asinine idea that is dehumanizing, that is absolutely stupid and backwards and needs to be challenged more than ever right now.
00:45:07.000 Well, but I mean, you know, there's too many people.
00:45:09.000 Gotta blow them up, right?
00:45:10.000 That's what Bill Gates would have said. And Barack Obama, I guess. Yeah, during COVID, right?
00:45:14.000 You mentioned earlier that we're in a state of cultural decay. I'm starting to think it's not
00:45:20.000 that, but more that we're in a state of cultural shock.
00:45:23.000 Like, the globe has—we're basically—all these cultures have come face to face with each other now.
00:45:28.000 We have communism in the United States.
00:45:30.000 We've got American republicanism in Iran.
00:45:34.000 We have people doing like the Arab Spring.
00:45:37.000 People are like, hell no, I want to be a republic.
00:45:39.000 And so we've got like, it's this like, it is demoralizing shock in a lot of ways.
00:45:44.000 But it's just, it's just like, like the paddles have just shocked the, I It's a new organism, cultural organism.
00:45:54.000 It can be a little harsh, but it's like thinking that way has it so I'm not so upset about the communism in American schools and in American politics.
00:46:03.000 It's a natural part of the cultures coming face to face.
00:46:07.000 This is just part of it.
00:46:08.000 And it's up to us to stay positive, to have morale high so that our culture comes out on top.
00:46:14.000 Let's get to the Good news, I guess.
00:46:17.000 You know, we're all concerned about nuclear war, you know.
00:46:20.000 Lord Miles, you mentioned that Joe Biden has his finger on the button for nuclear bombs.
00:46:24.000 Well, we got this op-ed from the Washington Post.
00:46:27.000 For the good of the country, Biden and Harris should bow out of the 2024 election.
00:46:32.000 From George Will.
00:46:33.000 This story went viral today.
00:46:35.000 This guy voted for Joe Biden.
00:46:37.000 He hates Trump, votes for Joe Biden, and now he's like... What did he say?
00:46:42.000 That Joe Biden has displayed unwittingness?
00:46:45.000 Or what does he call it?
00:46:46.000 I don't care to read the whole thing.
00:46:48.000 The fact is, everyone's basically saying, oh here we go, this is great.
00:46:51.000 He says, meeting recently with some progressive activists, Biden said his $426 billion student loan forgiveness was accomplished by a law that he had just signed.
00:47:00.000 I got it passed by a vote or two.
00:47:02.000 No, he did not!
00:47:04.000 I love this because it's two things.
00:47:05.000 The first thing is it's a guy who voted for Biden being like, no, no more Biden!
00:47:09.000 And the second thing is, well, I mean, actually, it's calling for Biden to bow out, and it's a guy regretting having voted for him in the first place.
00:47:17.000 So you love to see it.
00:47:19.000 This is what you get when you vote for a man who is insane, unwell, just out of it, and now he's going on TV and just lying and making things up.
00:47:28.000 And it's absolutely fascinating that people still buy it.
00:47:31.000 It's absolutely fascinating that people will still vote for someone like John Fetterman.
00:47:34.000 Joe Biden claimed his son died in Iraq twice now.
00:47:37.000 He claimed he got a bill passed he didn't get passed, and people believe it.
00:47:41.000 They call Trump a fascist.
00:47:43.000 But you want to talk about fascism?
00:47:44.000 That's the fascism right there.
00:47:45.000 That's the scary thing.
00:47:46.000 They sneak it in with some bumbling old dotard who makes random things up.
00:47:51.000 People buy it.
00:47:52.000 They march in lockstep behind it.
00:47:54.000 But I'm glad to see that these never-Trumpers are regretting their actions and now calling for a substantial change.
00:48:01.000 I guess the question is, if not Biden in 2024, not Harris, who could it possibly be?
00:48:07.000 I think it's honestly going to be someone who is just like Biden at the end of the day.
00:48:12.000 They're going to make new promises, say they're going to be something different.
00:48:14.000 It's going to be the same thing repeating.
00:48:16.000 Stacey Abrams?
00:48:17.000 Michelle Obama and Oprah.
00:48:17.000 No, no, no.
00:48:20.000 I'm running on the same ticket.
00:48:22.000 Why wouldn't it happen?
00:48:23.000 Tell me.
00:48:24.000 Make an argument.
00:48:25.000 I think that's... Who else is there?
00:48:26.000 Gavin Newsom?
00:48:27.000 Yeah, but hold on.
00:48:28.000 The serial killer looking dude?
00:48:30.000 And then that crazy woman?
00:48:32.000 Which more?
00:48:32.000 Which more?
00:48:33.000 I said that by accident.
00:48:36.000 Now I just kind of realized what I was saying.
00:48:38.000 That's good.
00:48:38.000 We gotta write that down.
00:48:39.000 Gretchen, which more?
00:48:40.000 Seriously, the butcher of the nursing home people?
00:48:43.000 Seriously, who else is there?
00:48:45.000 Pete Buttigieg and Beto O'Rourke.
00:48:48.000 Those are the only other two.
00:48:50.000 Buttigieg has connections to intelligence, so he's going to be propped up in there.
00:48:54.000 He's in the administration now.
00:48:55.000 He's the transportation... Meghan McCain?
00:48:58.000 No, she doesn't have enough star power at the moment.
00:49:00.000 Who else?
00:49:01.000 You got nobody?
00:49:02.000 You're gonna dust Hillary off?
00:49:02.000 Hillary?
00:49:04.000 I don't think she wants to.
00:49:05.000 Bring her forward?
00:49:05.000 Dust her off.
00:49:06.000 Seriously.
00:49:07.000 I've been thinking about Hillary a lot lately.
00:49:09.000 I think she's the... Why?
00:49:09.000 She's the kind of person... Why, Ian?
00:49:11.000 Because she's one of those... You know they say facts over feelings.
00:49:11.000 Stop it.
00:49:13.000 A lot of people have feelings over... Hillary's like the ultimate feelings over facts person.
00:49:17.000 I feel like... I just realized this, that if she likes you, she wants to work with you.
00:49:20.000 If she gets a gut feeling, like... Yeah.
00:49:22.000 Yeah, you got... She could be swayed to do things.
00:49:24.000 Did you see what you just said?
00:49:26.000 That people are gonna vote Republican because they're too stupid to know what's good for them.
00:49:26.000 Huh?
00:49:29.000 She senses the emotions.
00:49:31.000 Now, I'm paraphrasing.
00:49:32.000 What she really said is that low-information Americans don't realize what a red wave actually means for them.
00:49:37.000 But, you know, she's basically saying y'all are too stupid to know what's good for you.
00:49:41.000 Bloomberg said the same thing.
00:49:42.000 Not Hillary, not Bloomberg.
00:49:44.000 I don't know.
00:49:44.000 Who do you guys see?
00:49:45.000 AOC?
00:49:46.000 She's too young.
00:49:48.000 She'll be old enough, but she is young.
00:49:49.000 Michelle Obama, Oprah.
00:49:51.000 Obama, Oprah, 2021.
00:49:51.000 I'm telling you.
00:49:54.000 Kanye?
00:49:55.000 You're telling me they would lose?
00:49:57.000 I don't think they would lose.
00:49:59.000 I don't know.
00:50:00.000 I would have said that maybe four years ago.
00:50:02.000 But times, they are a-changing, man.
00:50:04.000 And I'll tell you why.
00:50:06.000 You take a look at some of the cultural productions and they have no impact.
00:50:10.000 The Daily Show getting only a few hundred thousand views.
00:50:14.000 People believe in different things.
00:50:16.000 Maybe 7-8 years ago, you'd be like, Oprah's so popular, people would vote for her.
00:50:22.000 Today, people are less concerned about pop culture.
00:50:24.000 Politics has become pop culture, so they're not gonna vote for someone like Oprah.
00:50:26.000 I mean, she'd get votes, don't get me wrong, she'd get a lot.
00:50:29.000 Michelle Obama, yes.
00:50:30.000 Former first lady, absolutely.
00:50:32.000 Maybe it's gonna be Obama-Clinton.
00:50:34.000 Or Clinton-Obama.
00:50:36.000 Which Clinton?
00:50:38.000 Chelsea?
00:50:38.000 Chelsea.
00:50:39.000 Getting into politics, Chels?
00:50:41.000 It'd be like a tech billionaire.
00:50:41.000 It's gonna be Hillary.
00:50:44.000 Could do it.
00:50:45.000 Musk?
00:50:46.000 No, he's not American.
00:50:47.000 He can never run for president.
00:50:48.000 He's African-American.
00:50:50.000 Jeff Bezos?
00:50:51.000 Jeff's not gonna do it.
00:50:52.000 I don't know.
00:50:53.000 I mean, all of a sudden the Washington Post starts writing, we need a billionaire president to fix things, Amazon is the greatest company ever, Jeff Bezos soars in the polls, and then you understand why he bought it.
00:51:04.000 Comically evil.
00:51:04.000 The Rock?
00:51:06.000 Yeah, I mean, he's playing a little bit into politics.
00:51:09.000 He supported Gavin Newsom.
00:51:10.000 He did a whole political advertisement for him.
00:51:14.000 And he'll say anything for a buck.
00:51:16.000 I mean, look at the kind of movies he's in.
00:51:18.000 Well, he's not as bad as that other dude who did that Chinese ad.
00:51:18.000 I think it's Pete Buttigieg.
00:51:21.000 Yeah, what's his name?
00:51:22.000 John Cena?
00:51:23.000 John Cena.
00:51:24.000 When I say it's Pete Buttigieg and you guys are like, no, no, stop, is it because you really are afraid that he might win?
00:51:29.000 No, come on, because it's like saying Mickey Mouse.
00:51:33.000 He doesn't have a personality.
00:51:36.000 He doesn't have anything.
00:51:37.000 He like, remember when he disappeared for like a month or something and no one knew
00:51:41.000 he was gone?
00:51:42.000 And there was like a major crisis with trucking and fuel and they were like, don't we have
00:51:46.000 a guy for this?
00:51:47.000 And he was just gone.
00:51:48.000 Like, nobody knew, nobody cared.
00:51:51.000 So I definitely don't see that guy.
00:51:52.000 But also, would you want to be a politician in a falling empire?
00:51:56.000 Everyone's gonna blame you for all the horrible things that all the other politicians have kind of built up.
00:52:01.000 What if this isn't the fall of the Roman Empire, this is the fall of the Roman Republic?
00:52:05.000 What if Trump crosses the Rubicon and we become a country that the Republicans just keep winning because the Democrats are psychotic?
00:52:12.000 And you end up with a lopsided country that's like 55% Republican or at the very least independence voting Republican because we've been traumatized by psychotic Democrats sterilizing kids and things like that, shutting down gas.
00:52:24.000 And then you end up with a long period of just consistent Republican majorities.
00:52:29.000 Maybe, but the difference is that it's like a global immersion now, whereas the Romans were still pretty insulated when the Republic fell.
00:52:36.000 Now we've got like every country on Earth is attempting to create a new government in the United States, and it's kind of up to us to hold the wheel while the storm rages outside.
00:52:46.000 Who do you think, Miles, who would have your vote?
00:52:48.000 I'm actually hoping no one, because then the Democratic Party could collapse and then the Republican system could just take over the entire thing in happy days for a while.
00:52:58.000 I mean, look, the Republicans are bad for a lot of reasons, but we're seeing the split where you have establishment Republicans and you have MAGA Republicans.
00:53:05.000 If the Republicans win in a sweeping victory, then they win in 2024, and the Democrats become diminished, you may actually see the dominant party become Republicans.
00:53:14.000 And this is a very, very wild hypothetical.
00:53:17.000 If the Democrats can't get a consistent majority of Republicans, eventually they'll start jumping ship to try and influence the Republican Party, which will then split and take over the two-party system.
00:53:26.000 I'm not convinced something like that will happen, but it's a possibility.
00:53:30.000 If one political party I'll put it this way.
00:53:33.000 The MAGA Republicans are very different from the establishment.
00:53:36.000 But people are willing to vote for any Republican at this point because the Democrats are insane.
00:53:39.000 They're campaigning on abortion while crime is skyrocketing in major cities.
00:53:44.000 In New York, there was like 30 people have been pushed in front of trains.
00:53:47.000 Like, that's freaking people out.
00:53:49.000 So Republicans are like, okay, we'll stop crime.
00:53:51.000 And now you get widely different views.
00:53:54.000 You get post-liberals, people like me, voting Republican, even though I disagree with a lot of policies, the Democrats are just too nuts.
00:54:01.000 If that keeps up for a little while, eventually then you're going to see the MAGA Republicans and the neocon types and establishment types split, and that will become the actual two parties right there.
00:54:12.000 Crazy, right?
00:54:13.000 Or a civil war.
00:54:15.000 Well, I don't know about that.
00:54:16.000 I mean, Civil War, if the far left loses it and refuses to accept the results of the election.
00:54:20.000 Look, Joe Biden spoke today about the danger of election denials or whatever.
00:54:25.000 Deniers.
00:54:26.000 And I think it's funny because the message is deeply needed right now.
00:54:29.000 Because when the Republicans win next week, and it's tremendous and insane, they're going to need to come out and be like, remember what Biden said.
00:54:36.000 Don't deny the elections.
00:54:37.000 But you know they're going to do it.
00:54:39.000 Gosh, I think that people should be allowed and maybe not encouraged to deny elections, but you should certainly be allowed to posit that there are issues in your elections, especially with evidence coming out of computer programs, hacking and flipping vote tallies.
00:54:51.000 But you can only do that if you come from a certain political party.
00:54:55.000 If you're from a different political party, you're going to be censored.
00:54:57.000 You're going to be banned.
00:54:58.000 You're going to be punished.
00:54:59.000 You're going to be ostracized by mainline society and called dangerous by Homeland Security.
00:55:03.000 But if you're Stacey Abrams, you could do it all the time.
00:55:05.000 It doesn't matter.
00:55:06.000 In Brazil, there's a giant crowd.
00:55:09.000 Tens of thousands of people demanding the military come out and say this election was wrong.
00:55:13.000 There was a huge protest today, too.
00:55:14.000 It's crazy.
00:55:15.000 They went to the military HQ.
00:55:17.000 That's scary, man.
00:55:18.000 It's scary when your country tribalizes to that degree.
00:55:24.000 I think you look at someone like Trump or Bolsonaro, I think they know what happens if you really move forward with a move like that.
00:55:24.000 You know what, man?
00:55:34.000 It's not going to be fun.
00:55:35.000 People are not going to live good lives.
00:55:37.000 You will have massive suffering.
00:55:39.000 It could start a civil war.
00:55:41.000 And anybody who's actually seen Conflicts knows exactly why you do not want something like that.
00:55:44.000 Yeah, I was thinking about the crowds in Brazil saying, we think that Bolsonaro was illegally voted out, we think the election was fraudulent, and we want the military to do it.
00:55:53.000 What if they're wrong?
00:55:54.000 What have they done?
00:55:55.000 They have tens, hundreds of thousands of people getting the military involved.
00:56:00.000 It's about power.
00:56:01.000 I think for a lot of people it's about the truth, but it's being used for the power.
00:56:04.000 It's about the truth, but they're being it's being used for the no no look look right now
00:56:08.000 I will say you've got a lot of people in the United States agreeing with the protesters
00:56:15.000 I've not seen anything out of Brazil, so I I'm not gonna say I know for sure what's going on
00:56:18.000 But I'll tell you it's it's feelings over fact The facts don't matter.
00:56:23.000 The feelings do.
00:56:24.000 And these people are thinking one thing.
00:56:27.000 If Bolsonaro is not the president, Brazil suffers.
00:56:30.000 So it doesn't matter what happened.
00:56:32.000 It matters that they do whatever they can to make sure he stays president.
00:56:35.000 They blocked the highways and asked the military to take over the government.
00:56:40.000 That's serious.
00:56:42.000 Did you ever see any kind of civil conflict?
00:56:42.000 Come on.
00:56:45.000 I mean, the closest thing that I saw when it comes to something like a civil war was what I saw in Mogadishu, Somalia.
00:56:51.000 Different tribes and different factions of people fighting each other.
00:56:54.000 You know, roadside bombs and just shelling and fighting, you know.
00:56:58.000 But have you seen anything like that?
00:57:00.000 Oh yeah, even in Brazil I've seen leaked videos showing that the cartel are celebrating that the guy got elected because he's going to protect him.
00:57:08.000 And you think with how corrupt certain parts of Brazil are. You know something was messed
00:57:12.000 with, I honestly think, at the end of the day.
00:57:14.000 But I've seen stuff in South Sudan as well, so it doesn't matter who you belong to in the country,
00:57:20.000 it just belongs about the tribe. So it doesn't matter if you're South Sudanese, South Sudan
00:57:23.000 doesn't really exist. It's just about the tribal people and the borders don't make any difference.
00:57:26.000 What happened in Sudan?
00:57:28.000 Yeah, so...
00:57:29.000 Well, real quick, like, Brazil is... let's just say there's a lot of things about Brazil.
00:57:34.000 I was down there and I saw the pacification or the aftermath of the pacification.
00:57:39.000 The government went in.
00:57:40.000 These were brutal videos.
00:57:41.000 They just basically took over favelas.
00:57:43.000 The government was so broken that for a long time, gangs in favelas were de facto governments.
00:57:49.000 Now they're trying to gain control over all these territories.
00:57:52.000 I don't think you're going to see confidence in any of these systems.
00:57:55.000 But I want to stress We're not Brazilian.
00:57:58.000 I don't know what's going on in Brazil other than we're watching news reports about it and people are demanding the military takeover, so... Yeah, I want evidence, if any.
00:58:06.000 I'm not going to make claims without evidence, that's for sure.
00:58:08.000 But it's not even that.
00:58:09.000 I mean, we're not Brazilian.
00:58:10.000 I don't even know what... Like, if someone came to you right now and said, like, Miguel, you know, Perez came out and showed this document, I'd be like, dude, I have no idea what you're talking about.
00:58:17.000 I don't even know who that is.
00:58:18.000 The issue is, though, if something really bad happens in Brazil, there'll be another immigration issue.
00:58:23.000 Where they will go up the Darien Gap all the way and cross the border.
00:58:27.000 Like what happened with Vanzuela, too, when the country fell.
00:58:29.000 Brazil's massive.
00:58:29.000 Brazil, though?
00:58:31.000 Yeah, I think they can make it happen.
00:58:33.000 They got dollar coconuts in Rio.
00:58:35.000 Eh, wouldn't it be too bad, yeah.
00:58:36.000 But at the same time, these people see America and think, oh, better life.
00:58:39.000 There's no election corruption over here.
00:58:41.000 I'm gonna tell you this.
00:58:43.000 I take... Anybody who goes to the military and requests they take over, I'm not trusting, to be completely honest.
00:58:50.000 Like, that's the last thing anyone would want.
00:58:54.000 If you think you legitimately won, you then go to the military and ask them to take over your country?
00:58:58.000 That doesn't sound... That's what some of the protesters are calling for.
00:59:02.000 I don't think Bolsonaro is doing that.
00:59:05.000 I think he officially conceded today.
00:59:07.000 He didn't concede.
00:59:08.000 Did he?
00:59:09.000 I think so.
00:59:09.000 I think I saw something right before this broadcast with him announcing that he's officially letting off power.
00:59:14.000 I know that he was basically beginning the transition, but I heard that he didn't concede.
00:59:19.000 What do you see?
00:59:20.000 I read a post on Reddit saying specifically... That he did concede?
00:59:23.000 Yeah.
00:59:24.000 But, again, it's Reddit.
00:59:25.000 Could be wrong.
00:59:26.000 We don't know what's going on here.
00:59:26.000 As of yesterday, he had not conceded.
00:59:28.000 Yeah, you might be right.
00:59:29.000 But the transition was beginning.
00:59:30.000 Like, he was letting go with power and following the Constitution.
00:59:32.000 That's what was reported.
00:59:34.000 I certainly hope you don't see a military takeover, man.
00:59:36.000 That's not fun stuff.
00:59:37.000 No.
00:59:38.000 No.
00:59:38.000 But, anyway, Sudan.
00:59:41.000 Yeah, South Sudan's the world's newest country and definitely shows at the end of the day.
00:59:45.000 Bribery is rife.
00:59:46.000 You go around anywhere, you have to pay money, especially if you're a foreigner like myself.
00:59:50.000 You stand out like a sore thumb.
00:59:52.000 UN bears keeping the entire country on lifelines so they're just handing out free food and
00:59:57.000 everything but not actually funding any agriculture and bringing some farming techniques to teach
01:00:03.000 them how to be self-sufficient.
01:00:04.000 It's just a money thing for money laundering.
01:00:07.000 The rich people get richer because the money given by the UN, our government as well, is
01:00:13.000 going to their pockets instead of the average person living in a mud hut who doesn't have
01:00:17.000 enough food to eat a day.
01:00:19.000 It sucks, and I think that could happen in Brazil at the end of the day.
01:00:21.000 It can get more tribal.
01:00:23.000 People fight amongst themselves, like you said to him.
01:00:26.000 You've got people that are belonging to certain areas, not actually the government and the country as a whole, and they'll associate with their tribal groups and then just fight amongst themselves.
01:00:37.000 And I think Brazil could fall into that.
01:00:39.000 It could even get to a point where certain parts of Brazil separate because the geography of the country is so insane that it would make sense at the end of the day.
01:00:47.000 And Bolsonaro, I'm just looking at it right now, he is urging his supporters to stop the roadblocks, and he has authorized the transition, didn't concede yet.
01:00:56.000 So the Reddit post rose wrong.
01:00:58.000 Let's talk about Newsweek.
01:00:59.000 Joe Biden.
01:01:01.000 White House brags about Social Security check increase caused by inflation.
01:01:05.000 This is one of the most epic mistakes ever made by a political organization, a political administration.
01:01:11.000 They said, where's the tweet?
01:01:15.000 Seniors are getting the biggest increase in their social security checks in 10 years through President Biden's leadership.
01:01:22.000 What happened was, Twitter had a community fact check, which said, actually, it was a 1972 law passed by Nixon, and the reason the increase is happening is because inflation is insanely high.
01:01:34.000 So the White House deleted the tweet.
01:01:36.000 They accidentally celebrated that inflation was caused by Joe Biden.
01:01:42.000 You get that?
01:01:43.000 They said, through Biden's leadership, they're seeing this increase.
01:01:49.000 Talk about a major cell phone.
01:01:52.000 Yeah, that, and I don't like, okay, if my dollar deflates and now it's worth 50 cents and I give you two dollars.
01:01:59.000 It inflates?
01:02:01.000 Yeah, okay, you could say that.
01:02:02.000 The value of the dollar goes down, the money is inflated, so the value deflates, we'll call it that.
01:02:06.000 So if I give you two of those dollars that are each worth half, I can't say that I increased the amount of money I'm giving you.
01:02:13.000 Yeah, you can.
01:02:14.000 That's what they do.
01:02:14.000 It's a lie.
01:02:15.000 I know, this is what America does.
01:02:17.000 The United States will borrow, let's hear a simple version.
01:02:20.000 They borrow 100 bucks from Japan, and that 100 bucks is worth, say, 100 apples.
01:02:24.000 Like, what's the real value?
01:02:27.000 100 apples.
01:02:28.000 Then, they print another $100, cutting the value of the dollar in half.
01:02:32.000 Now that same $100 Japan has can only buy 50 apples.
01:02:35.000 So when they say, I gotta pay you back, they pay him back half.
01:02:38.000 It's amazing how this stuff works.
01:02:39.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:02:39.000 The value of the dollar has been going down dramatically.
01:02:43.000 And the crazy thing is, it's not as bad as it is other places in the world.
01:02:47.000 Like in Europe, in the developing world, holy cow, are they dealing with larger inflation numbers here?
01:02:52.000 We're still seeing artificial ways that it's being kind of tamed, but there's a reason why I have this banker t-shirt.
01:02:58.000 There's a reason their practices that they're doing is absolutely immoral and evil, and at the end of the day just screws people over, because if you have money, say you're trying to save up for a rainy day, you put it underneath your couch or your mattress, whatever it may be, that value of that money is being slowly liquidated away by government's unknown tax, which is inflation.
01:03:21.000 And we still haven't seen the larger ramifications from it.
01:03:23.000 This is just the beginning of the larger financial ramifications that we're seeing, not just from COVID, but also from those $2,000 checks that everyone got.
01:03:33.000 It's crazy that we had such- Free money!
01:03:35.000 Free money, yeah, it's free.
01:03:37.000 It just comes out of nowhere.
01:03:38.000 It's not free.
01:03:39.000 AOC, what did she advocate for?
01:03:41.000 Deficit spending?
01:03:42.000 Yeah.
01:03:43.000 Don't you know modern monetary policy?
01:03:45.000 Just print the money, spend it, and devalue the savings of everyone else.
01:03:47.000 Yeah.
01:03:48.000 Who cares?
01:03:49.000 Their wages become worthless.
01:03:50.000 And modern currency is based on trust, that's the thing too.
01:03:53.000 And with the trust in the government going down dramatically, and every other government as is, with the recession going on too, and China becoming more powerful, I seriously think the US dollar just can't keep doing this, taking every bashing, because it won't come out on top.
01:04:07.000 And at the end of the day, the world global currency will switch onto something else.
01:04:11.000 That's why China's devalued their currency.
01:04:13.000 They're probably playing the long game, and one day they're going to bounce up, and everyone will switch.
01:04:16.000 I mean, credit's due as due.
01:04:18.000 Russia put their currency back up partially on the gold standard, right?
01:04:22.000 Do you see that price shoot up?
01:04:24.000 But nowadays, the currency actually has no real value.
01:04:27.000 And it's just a paper straw that's about to break, basically.
01:04:30.000 Yeah, China also is dealing with a lot of very heavy financial ramifications, especially
01:04:35.000 in their real estate market.
01:04:38.000 And there's just so much irresponsible, centralized banking going on that it's absolutely reckless
01:04:45.000 to have any faith in this system.
01:04:47.000 If you have faith in the system, you might as well believe in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny.
01:04:53.000 You have more faith in those made-up ideas than you should in the banking system when you truly find out what's really happening behind the scenes.
01:05:00.000 And now we're on an infinite reserve system.
01:05:02.000 Meaning the banks can just print out debt endlessly, so expect inflation to get substantially worse and never stop getting worse.
01:05:10.000 Knowing that and having no or losing faith in that system, the faith-based system, the fiat system actually means faith.
01:05:17.000 What would you advise?
01:05:18.000 You're not a financial advisor?
01:05:19.000 I'm buying Dogecoin, but I wouldn't advise anyone.
01:05:21.000 I didn't say that.
01:05:21.000 I said Dogecoin.
01:05:22.000 Dogecoin?
01:05:23.000 And no, I'm kidding.
01:05:25.000 I did buy Dogecoin, but I would not give anyone advice on what to do because honestly, I have no idea.
01:05:28.000 I would say be careful.
01:05:30.000 I'm not a financial advisor, but what happened during the Great Depression was a lot of people were taking out loans on margin, meaning they didn't have the money to cover the loan if the value dropped of the commodity that they were And then the banks called the loans back in and they had no money because the value dropped.
01:05:45.000 And then they would have to sell off all their assets at a loss to pay back the margin call.
01:05:50.000 So I avoid that right now.
01:05:53.000 The market could drop by times, you know, 1,000.
01:05:55.000 It could become worth a thousandth of what it's worth.
01:05:57.000 I mean, the problem is being compounded because they've been prolonging a correction.
01:06:03.000 They've been making sure that there's going to be no downturns in the economy, and they artificially do that.
01:06:08.000 They have been inflating this bubble more and more and more, and because of that, when it does finally correct itself, there's going to be so much pain.
01:06:16.000 There's going to be so much suffering, and these policies were just being deliberately done, and we're screaming, This is stupid, this is stupid, this is stupid, this is going to lead to more pain, more havoc, more suffering for everyone, and no one's listening.
01:06:27.000 And we're just continuing on with these same policies to now the point when the correction is going to happen, it's going to be massive, and it's going to hurt everyone.
01:06:34.000 I saw a story about this guy, he found a tin full of cash in like his attic or whatever, it was like grandpa hid up there, and it was something like 50 grand or whatever, And they were like, wow, so amazing, we found 50 grand.
01:06:46.000 I'm like, that sure does suck.
01:06:48.000 Because it was worth 500 grand when your grandpa put it there, if only he bought gold and put it up there, or stock in something.
01:06:54.000 An empty lot in the city that's now developed all around.
01:06:58.000 Yep, the cash is worthless.
01:07:00.000 You think like a president's going to come in and be like, all right, everybody, things are going to be very, very, very painful.
01:07:05.000 Here's why now it gets painful that everyone would blame that person, that president, like you were saying earlier, who wants to be a politician in this climate?
01:07:12.000 Like, and then what would they be looked at as the worst president of all time?
01:07:15.000 Because they were the ones that finally allowed the facetious system for a lot of reasons.
01:07:20.000 Biden already is, but sure.
01:07:21.000 But he hasn't done the financial break.
01:07:24.000 He's trying to like push it, push it, push it, kick it on to the next guy by printing more money and like slowing, but it's just like building pressure so that when it does explode it's going to be a bigger explosion.
01:07:35.000 Or maybe we could transition to a better system without having a giant explosion.
01:07:39.000 You're still going to have to pay the bills.
01:07:41.000 I don't know, I don't think you do.
01:07:43.000 I don't think you have to pay the Federal Reserve back all that interest.
01:07:45.000 I mean, it's a private company.
01:07:47.000 What right does a private company have to demand of the U.S.
01:07:49.000 government anything?
01:07:50.000 I'm going to be very cynical here and say they're doing this on purpose.
01:07:53.000 Because think about it, all these people, especially the Biden administration, they think in four-year terms, nothing else.
01:07:58.000 They don't think about 10 years down the line, 20 years.
01:08:01.000 And the Biden administration knows they screwed up with Biden, completely.
01:08:04.000 They know they're going to lose the next election.
01:08:07.000 I think they have some self-awareness.
01:08:08.000 I honestly think they're just trying to print as much money as they can, line the pocket of their friends like they're doing right now, until the next election cycle in, say, two years, and then the bag is passed over to the new right-wing president, and then suddenly everything collapses like you said.
01:08:24.000 Yeah, it's gonna happen.
01:08:25.000 Yeah, it's their plan.
01:08:26.000 They want to basically sink your ship.
01:08:29.000 I have advice for people.
01:08:31.000 Buy chickens.
01:08:33.000 Chickens will live in pods, they will eat bugs, and they will give you eggs.
01:08:38.000 I was talking with our chicken tender, Kim, the other day, and apparently what you can
01:08:41.000 do is take cows in one paddock, they live there, they poop there, then when they've
01:08:45.000 saturated the area, you move them to the next paddock, and then you move the chickens into
01:08:48.000 where the cows were, they start sifting through the cow poop, refreshing the grass, they regenerate
01:08:54.000 the land.
01:08:55.000 No, no, no, the chickens destroy the grass.
01:08:56.000 But they'll actually- They till that whole- it's crazy.
01:09:00.000 You didn't mention anything about chickens.
01:09:01.000 Don't change the subject.
01:09:03.000 chickens went in and annihilated it.
01:09:05.000 And get it ready for crops.
01:09:07.000 They'll get rid of all the weeds, which is the grass, and then you have the cropland
01:09:11.000 after that.
01:09:12.000 But you mentioned something that I want to add on specifically here.
01:09:14.000 You didn't mention anything about chickens.
01:09:16.000 Just to change the topic here on your favorite topic here, I think what you mentioned is
01:09:21.000 And it's not just, you know, a politician that's going to come and save us.
01:09:25.000 Because if we look at what's been happening here, it's not a Democratic problem.
01:09:30.000 It's not a Republican problem.
01:09:31.000 It's a duopoly problem, as, of course, we got to remember.
01:09:35.000 Biden is spending money like crazy.
01:09:37.000 He's deliberately destroying the energy sector.
01:09:39.000 He's passing the Inflation Reduction Act, which doesn't reduce any inflation at all.
01:09:44.000 And then, of course, we had the other guy beforehand that also spent a crap ton of money on the military-industrial complex and started handing out $2,000 checks to everyone like it just came out of nowhere.
01:09:54.000 So whether it's Donald Trump, Biden, or even Obama, or even Bush, or Clinton before him, they all made this problem worse.
01:10:01.000 And what makes you think that another Republican coming into power is going to help this?
01:10:05.000 It's not.
01:10:06.000 But you think that, I think Miles, you're making the point that they're going to plan to get someone of the political party they don't agree with in power before they tank the economy?
01:10:14.000 I think they're going to tank the economy as soon as, say, the next Trump gets elected, basically.
01:10:14.000 And who's that?
01:10:19.000 No, the Republicans will win now.
01:10:21.000 Yeah, they'll win the next election, basically.
01:10:24.000 But they'll cause the global crisis.
01:10:26.000 Because they've got all the numbers, they've got all the calculations.
01:10:26.000 They'll time it.
01:10:28.000 I think they know what's going to happen.
01:10:30.000 I think Trump's going to be playing the game here.
01:10:30.000 Not even Trump.
01:10:33.000 when republicans come back into power and they'll go, oh look what republicans have
01:10:37.000 done. They've come into power, it was bad under the VAD terms, but that was because
01:10:40.000 of Trump and then they'll say, look they're in power now, it's worse than ever.
01:10:43.000 Not even Trump, I think Trump's going to be playing the game here. If it's a populist,
01:10:47.000 if it's someone who's going to come in and be like, hey I can finally represent the people
01:10:51.000 of America, I think China, Wall Street and all these other larger financial institutions
01:10:56.000 and the Federal Reserve will come to them and be like, you will? Okay, we'll destroy
01:11:00.000 this whole game right now.
01:11:02.000 You better play along or we're going to tank the economy deliberately and blame it all on you.
01:11:06.000 What do you want there, buddy?
01:11:08.000 And I think the next president, even if they're going to be a populist, even if they're going to be representing the will of the people, that's the perfect opportunity for them to finally drop all the bags.
01:11:17.000 Oh yeah.
01:11:17.000 You know, I used to be an investment banking analyst for a few months as well.
01:11:20.000 Yeah.
01:11:21.000 And I've got still friends in that field and I met Martin Shkreli a few weeks ago, you know, for a few meetups.
01:11:26.000 Lovely guy.
01:11:28.000 But they are sounding alarm bells right now.
01:11:30.000 They are basically saying, hey, I'm going to put some extra money aside and liquidate and put some crypto or I'm going to buy some extra food or I might buy some farmland, you know, and learn a little bit about farming or raise my kids to learn how to sew clothes back together.
01:11:42.000 And these are bankers earning, you know, $200,000, $300,000 a year at the minimum.
01:11:47.000 Things will only get worse.
01:11:49.000 You will own nothing and you'll be happy.
01:11:51.000 Check out this.
01:11:52.000 So I'll give you one of my shirts.
01:11:53.000 Next time you're around them, you could wear this shirt.
01:11:55.000 If my career doesn't pop off and I have to go back to that lifestyle, I'll wear that to the interview.
01:12:00.000 Let's check out this story here.
01:12:02.000 California Governor Gavin Newsom admits the Democrats have been destroyed on messaging and crushed in the narrative as they race a Republican red wave in the midterms.
01:12:12.000 And here's the RCP projection.
01:12:14.000 There it is.
01:12:15.000 The updated map shows Republicans taking 54 seats.
01:12:19.000 Democrats, 46, New Hampshire is going Republican.
01:12:24.000 They're saying Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, New Hampshire, all going Republican.
01:12:29.000 Now, I got a question.
01:12:30.000 If Zeldin, in some polls, is leading in New York, could New York possibly go Republican in the Senate as well?
01:12:35.000 That'd be huge.
01:12:37.000 Could you imagine what would happen if the Republicans actually took over 60 Senate seats?
01:12:42.000 That'd be crazy.
01:12:43.000 It's a lot of pod people in New York City.
01:12:44.000 I'm going to start calling people that live in apartments in deep cities pod people.
01:12:48.000 It's kind of a term of endearment, guys.
01:12:50.000 I know you're listening right now.
01:12:51.000 No, it's not!
01:12:52.000 I lived in a pod for many years, so it's not an insult.
01:12:56.000 They're looking around the apartment from wall to wall, like five feet to five feet, going, yeah, I guess.
01:13:01.000 Cement walls.
01:13:02.000 So as everyone in here has always been the staunchest of Republicans, How are you going to celebrate when your favorite political party wins supreme control over the government in a week?
01:13:13.000 You're just trying to trigger me right now.
01:13:16.000 You're not even American.
01:13:17.000 Serge, are you a Republican?
01:13:18.000 No.
01:13:18.000 Then no one in this room has been a traditional Republican.
01:13:21.000 And here we are being like, oh, it's better they win, I guess.
01:13:24.000 I mean, we can acknowledge the Republican Party is mostly trash, but we don't want the Democrats to win.
01:13:29.000 When it comes to this, I don't even know who the Democrats are that are running.
01:13:32.000 So, to be honest, I vote for people.
01:13:34.000 I don't vote for political parties.
01:13:36.000 If the people are better, but they have a T on their shirt, I will not vote for John.
01:13:39.000 I would not advocate voting for John Fetterman because he just suffered a stroke.
01:13:43.000 He's not in a healthy mind state right now.
01:13:45.000 I'm not a huge fan of Dr. Oz politically, but he seemed cogent.
01:13:48.000 He's more cogent than Fetterman, at least.
01:13:50.000 Who does the RCP real clear politics?
01:13:52.000 How do they get their numbers?
01:13:55.000 Yeah, no difference.
01:13:56.000 Literally.
01:13:57.000 We just gave it a little time there before they fully implement all the agenda.
01:14:01.000 Who does the RCP, Real Clear Politics, how do they get their numbers?
01:14:05.000 It's an aggregation of polls.
01:14:07.000 So you've got a bunch of different polls.
01:14:10.000 We also gotta understand though, the polls are routinely wrong.
01:14:14.000 They were telling you that Hillary Clinton had a 99 to 90% chance of winning the election?
01:14:18.000 Yes, but they're wrong by like 7 points against the Republicans.
01:14:24.000 Meaning, if they're using the polls to show a projection of 54 Republican seats, and they're off again by 7 to 13 points, that was like the swing.
01:14:32.000 I mean, it could be way more.
01:14:35.000 Look, let's say this.
01:14:37.000 So when we look at New York Senate, Schumer versus Pinon, Schumer's up 18, 11, 17, 14, and 12.
01:14:45.000 If the polls are off by 13 points, and that's massive, I really doubt it, I really doubt it, then it could be a tie.
01:14:52.000 But I don't think so.
01:14:54.000 I do think, however, If people in New York go out and vote, they absolutely could get a Republican in the Senate in New York if every single person went out and vote.
01:15:03.000 The polls are meaningless because Democrats aren't enthusiastic right now.
01:15:06.000 They're upset about Democratic leadership, the gas prices are too dang high, and so right now the Republicans who are enthusiastic have an opportunity.
01:15:14.000 These polls show Schumer way up.
01:15:17.000 Sure, but how many of those people who want to vote for him, who say they're going to vote for him, actually care to go out and vote?
01:15:22.000 The Democrats aren't offering you anything, so they might not even show up.
01:15:26.000 I kind of worry about blue Texas at the end of the day.
01:15:28.000 I mean, ever since the California side running away and then saying, oh wait, California sucks.
01:15:33.000 Let's vote exactly the same in our new state.
01:15:35.000 I think we could see some surprises, but... Texas has been turning redder.
01:15:39.000 Yeah.
01:15:39.000 That's good.
01:15:40.000 That's good news.
01:15:40.000 That's because a lot of conservatives have been moving away from California.
01:15:44.000 No, no, no.
01:15:44.000 The Latino vote in the Rio Grande Valley flipped from Democrat to Republican.
01:15:49.000 Yes.
01:15:49.000 So, I mean, people are fed up with the border crisis.
01:15:51.000 Yeah.
01:15:54.000 Is that where Elon Musk also voted?
01:15:56.000 He voted also for a Republican.
01:15:58.000 He said he voted Republican?
01:15:59.000 Yeah, Elon Musk did.
01:16:00.000 Look at this.
01:16:01.000 New Mexico is being projected as going Democrat, right?
01:16:05.000 For the governorship.
01:16:06.000 But if the polls really are busted, swinging up to seven points, then it's...
01:16:10.000 It's actually leaning Republican.
01:16:12.000 But I don't know.
01:16:12.000 I'm not a pollster.
01:16:13.000 I don't know to what degree the polls will or won't be busted this time around.
01:16:17.000 New Mexico doesn't have any senators up.
01:16:19.000 Colorado.
01:16:20.000 The Bennet in Colorado against O'Day is up two points in the latest poll from Trafalgar.
01:16:27.000 Eight from Emerson, six from Marist, and nine from DFP.
01:16:31.000 Overall spread is 6.2.
01:16:33.000 If the polls are off by seven points, Republican could win there.
01:16:37.000 Everyone needs to go out and vote.
01:16:39.000 What does it show in Arizona with Cary Lake?
01:16:42.000 Oh, with Cary Lake?
01:16:44.000 Oh, I think it's hands down.
01:16:45.000 I think the projection... It's showing it's contested.
01:16:47.000 No, it's up Lake across the board.
01:16:49.000 Oh, wow.
01:16:50.000 Yeah, there's one poll showing it's high and one with Hobbs up one.
01:16:54.000 But let's look at Senate.
01:16:57.000 In the Senate, Arizona is leaning... See, this is interesting.
01:17:01.000 All the polls show Mark Kelly leading in Arizona, yet they're projecting Masters will win.
01:17:07.000 Why is that?
01:17:08.000 Well, it'll be interesting to see what happens, man.
01:17:11.000 Be right one way.
01:17:13.000 Is it because they're like, hey, look, we think the polls are gonna be wrong?
01:17:17.000 New Hampshire, I think, even shows, for the most part, Hasan is up, but Bolduc is up one in the St.
01:17:22.000 Anselm poll.
01:17:22.000 And didn't Tulsi campaign for Bolduc?
01:17:25.000 Yeah, she just endorsed him, I'm pretty sure, right?
01:17:26.000 Yeah.
01:17:27.000 Oh, no, no, she just endorsed Masters!
01:17:30.000 Tulsi Gabbard.
01:17:30.000 It's amazing that she left Congress and is more influential now.
01:17:34.000 Maybe that's why she did.
01:17:34.000 It might have been, yeah.
01:17:36.000 She couldn't have done anything in the party, who knows?
01:17:38.000 She could have left the Democratic Party a while before.
01:17:40.000 She could have, very true.
01:17:41.000 Yeah, Bernie too.
01:17:43.000 Yeah.
01:17:43.000 Duckworth!
01:17:45.000 Man, Illinois, what is wrong with these places?
01:17:47.000 I mean, it's going to be interesting to see what happens in Arizona and Pennsylvania.
01:17:50.000 I mean, that's pretty much where I'm going to be keeping a close eye on on Election Day, because that's going to decide the future of this country.
01:17:56.000 Oh, yeah.
01:17:56.000 What's the Pennsylvania polls look like right now?
01:17:59.000 Doug Mastriano.
01:17:59.000 I think it's favoring Fetterman for the most part.
01:18:01.000 Oh, he's up 0.4.
01:18:03.000 How?
01:18:04.000 I don't even know.
01:18:05.000 Decision Desk said Oz's chance of winning is 54 percent.
01:18:08.000 To like, Fetterman's 45 or something like that.
01:18:10.000 After that debate, maybe you should have to watch the debate to vote.
01:18:14.000 I don't know.
01:18:15.000 But how do you make sure someone watched it?
01:18:16.000 This is why I think service guarantees citizenship, right?
01:18:20.000 Oh, you don't even need ID to vote.
01:18:21.000 Trust me, they're not going to put any barriers to entry.
01:18:24.000 This right here, I feel like with Fetterman and Oz, it's like a test aliens are putting us through.
01:18:29.000 And they're like, they're in a spaceship.
01:18:31.000 And it's like, are they voting for Fetterman?
01:18:33.000 They are.
01:18:35.000 Like, they're testing us to see if we're worthy of joining the Galactic Federation, but we're voting for a guy who's actually got brain damage and can't speak or understand words?
01:18:45.000 That just goes to show you that these people are not serious people.
01:18:48.000 The voters are not serious people.
01:18:49.000 They don't care.
01:18:50.000 And if anything, if there was a conspiracy, I'd argue it was an attempt to make learned people wish for despotism, because you realize how many stupid people there are that will vote themselves to jump off a cliff.
01:19:02.000 That's why we built the federal government to begin with, or at least why we built the Senate.
01:19:06.000 That's why we are a democracy.
01:19:08.000 Republic, yeah.
01:19:08.000 Yeah.
01:19:09.000 We have better men, in quotes.
01:19:11.000 For now.
01:19:12.000 Better men.
01:19:13.000 In the Senate, to make sure that the mob doesn't vote in moronacy.
01:19:17.000 I don't know how you would describe it.
01:19:19.000 Moronacy?
01:19:19.000 That's an Ianism.
01:19:19.000 I'm making up words.
01:19:20.000 An Ianism.
01:19:21.000 I heard it's okay to do that.
01:19:23.000 It's totally fine.
01:19:24.000 We're going to have a big show on election day.
01:19:27.000 We're going to have pizzas and wings and we're just going to sit here.
01:19:29.000 I'm going to eat like a bowl of wings.
01:19:30.000 Beef liver?
01:19:31.000 I'm going to bring the beef liver.
01:19:33.000 Change it up here a little bit.
01:19:38.000 If you think the Republicans won already, then they're going to lose, for real.
01:19:41.000 Yeah, because you're not going to go out and vote.
01:19:42.000 And that's what they're hoping for.
01:19:44.000 The reason we may be seeing these stories, like Republicans are going to win, is that Republicans are like, oh, OK, I don't got to go out.
01:19:49.000 No, no, no.
01:19:49.000 Now is the time you got to go out, because I'll tell you this.
01:19:51.000 If they're saying you're going to win already, then make it a supermajority.
01:19:55.000 Make it like a crushing defeat.
01:19:57.000 Like, people talk about when you're defending yourself, how you got to make sure you stop the fight.
01:20:02.000 You know, you have to make sure you use adequate force to prevent someone from being able to fight.
01:20:06.000 When we're talking about politics, you want to win a decisive political victory to the point where the Democrats feel so demoralized they drop these garbage ideas.
01:20:16.000 They have a reckoning where they say, hey, you know those things we were promoting that really hurt us in a way we've not seen in decades?
01:20:23.000 Let's not advocate for those things anymore.
01:20:25.000 That's what we need to see.
01:20:27.000 Send a message.
01:20:27.000 Yeah, and also don't celebrate when your candidate wins.
01:20:30.000 You got to hold their feet to the fire and make sure that they represent you properly.
01:20:34.000 It's just a tendency in American politics for the once they get into office to just fall into the oligarch's pocket.
01:20:39.000 And it is up to you to run this country.
01:20:41.000 We are running this country together, the people.
01:20:44.000 On election day, are we going to start early?
01:20:46.000 Or is it just 8-10?
01:20:47.000 It's not 8-10.
01:20:48.000 We're probably going to go late.
01:20:50.000 It's not going to be members only.
01:20:51.000 We're going to just chill here and have pizza.
01:20:54.000 Or have people rotating in and out.
01:20:55.000 We might be waiting a long time to see what happens in Pennsylvania.
01:20:59.000 It may go on a few days.
01:21:00.000 We may be trapped here live for a few weeks.
01:21:02.000 Telethon.
01:21:03.000 Let's do a telethon.
01:21:05.000 Yeah, no, I think we might go.
01:21:06.000 We can raise money for a beep blarp.
01:21:08.000 Special election night.
01:21:09.000 Just let the live stream roll.
01:21:10.000 We'll hang out.
01:21:11.000 Maybe like as we're chilling for results, play some music.
01:21:14.000 Maybe we'll wake up the commander next place.
01:21:15.000 Imagine the gathering while we're waiting.
01:21:17.000 Get some coffee.
01:21:18.000 I like it.
01:21:18.000 I like those days where people just roll in and out.
01:21:20.000 Kind of like take seats.
01:21:21.000 You get up and leave, come back.
01:21:23.000 Yeah, we're gonna have a bunch of people here, actually.
01:21:25.000 And we're gonna have people chilling in the seats, and they're gonna come in and swap out, and it'll be fun.
01:21:29.000 It'll be an extended show.
01:21:30.000 But, you know, we'll see.
01:21:31.000 We'll see.
01:21:32.000 I don't know if we can make Serge press the buttons for that long.
01:21:35.000 Well, luckily I've got some other people that are learning how to do this, too.
01:21:37.000 There we go.
01:21:38.000 It's actually a great opportunity.
01:21:39.000 So we'll be like, the buttons may be pressed incorrectly, but we don't care.
01:21:41.000 Maybe I'll push the buttons for a few minutes.
01:21:44.000 You don't want to do it for days and days and days, Serge?
01:21:46.000 Come on.
01:21:47.000 What kind of attitude is this?
01:21:50.000 We've got to wait until the votes in Pennsylvania get in.
01:21:53.000 Yeah, very true.
01:21:54.000 Take a look at this.
01:21:55.000 How long do you think it's going to take?
01:21:56.000 A couple of days.
01:21:56.000 Who wants to read this one?
01:21:58.000 Ian, you got this.
01:21:58.000 Yeah, let me see it.
01:21:59.000 There's a glare on the screen, so I got this.
01:22:02.000 Panic is starting to set in... For Democrats.
01:22:08.000 It's not just Nevada.
01:22:10.000 In multiple key states, Democrats are not hitting the early vote, plus VBM numbers they need to counteract an election day red wave.
01:22:18.000 John Ralson says, for those wondering, I just confirmed that there is no backlog of mail waiting to be processed.
01:22:25.000 This is not a good scenario at all for Dems, unless USPS is not processing fast enough.
01:22:30.000 No massive Clark mail is in 2020.
01:22:32.000 As I have said, this is in Apple.
01:22:34.000 Other cycles are oranges.
01:22:35.000 So basically, they're hoping there was a big stack of mail-in ballots that were gonna get jammed up.
01:22:40.000 That would be good news for Dems.
01:22:42.000 It ain't there.
01:22:43.000 So this might actually end that night very decisively.
01:22:46.000 You know, American—one of the things Americans have always been great at, in my opinion, is being real.
01:22:53.000 Like, this country came from hard times, and when you see someone like Joe Biden, Just flubbing things.
01:23:01.000 It's you can't your spirit cannot deny it.
01:23:04.000 It's it's too hard to pretend like that's okay for a long time.
01:23:10.000 And that I gives me hope.
01:23:12.000 Unfortunately, it's like you got to be demoralized to the place where you give up on the American dream.
01:23:17.000 But it was a nightmare to begin with, you know, it was all The American Dream?
01:23:21.000 No, it isn't.
01:23:21.000 No, it isn't.
01:23:21.000 on conquest and like OPEC dollar, forcing people to use our dollars, capitalizing off
01:23:27.000 the back of the destruction of Europe in World War II.
01:23:29.000 The American dream is something very different.
01:23:30.000 It's basically that with a single job you can buy a house, get a car, raise two kids.
01:23:35.000 No it isn't.
01:23:36.000 Some chickens.
01:23:37.000 No it isn't.
01:23:38.000 That's the American dream.
01:23:39.000 No it isn't.
01:23:40.000 One person from nothing can come up and have a life like a car, a house, and kids.
01:23:41.000 The American dream is upward mobility.
01:23:42.000 Yeah.
01:23:43.000 And then what happens is you get a bunch of these communist college students who think
01:23:46.000 it means you can literally not work and just be rich.
01:23:50.000 The American dream was that you could move to America as a Chinese immigrant, move your family into a studio apartment, and then work 80 hours a week until you finally put your kids in college, and then they get jobs making $50,000 a year and don't have to go through what you did, and they can have cell phones in their own apartment.
01:24:07.000 That was the American dream.
01:24:08.000 And then all of a sudden these communists come out and they're like, the American dream is dead.
01:24:13.000 Since when was the American dream that you're born to an upper-class family, go to college, and then get a mid-range six-figure job at a tech firm?
01:24:20.000 These are people who get jobs at like Vice and do literally no work all day.
01:24:27.000 Don't even show up half the time and they're like, the American dream is dead.
01:24:30.000 There's a video, did you see the viral video of that TikToker?
01:24:33.000 On Twitter.
01:24:34.000 On Twitter, the Starbucks?
01:24:35.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:24:36.000 Like, I had to work 8 hours on Saturday!
01:24:40.000 It's like, oh man, it's a TikToker working at Starbucks, crying, saying, we need a union, because they scheduled me to work 8 hours on Saturday and Sunday, and it's wrong, and it's not fair!
01:24:54.000 The American dream was that you got to work 16 hours a day and you got to make enough money to eventually put your kids in a better situation.
01:25:03.000 That was the American dream.
01:25:03.000 Yeah, the immigration story is the story of my family.
01:25:06.000 My dad had to sacrifice a lot, risk a lot.
01:25:10.000 Fleeing the Soviet Union.
01:25:11.000 Yeah, I mean, working for essentially slave labor off the books to try to, of course, bring me over to the United States and give me opportunity.
01:25:20.000 And I know that, hey, I have a lot of opportunities here that I wouldn't have in Poland.
01:25:24.000 I got to take advantage of it.
01:25:25.000 I got to make sure that I'm on my A-game.
01:25:27.000 I got to make sure I got to work hard, because at the end of the day, no one's going to give you anything.
01:25:31.000 And that's a lesson that a lot of these people need to learn immediately.
01:25:34.000 Here's the American dream, that Luke's family were, Poland was a Soviet satellite, it wasn't officially Soviet Union, is that it?
01:25:41.000 Yeah.
01:25:41.000 So your family flees this very, this hardship to come to America, and 30 years later, or 20 some odd years later, their son, his father having sacrificed all of this, his son appears on a Times Square billboard ad several, a couple times.
01:25:59.000 That's the American dream.
01:26:00.000 Well, I don't know, you know, in all seriousness, Luke, do you think your dad ever expected that the life he would give you would lead to something so tremendous?
01:26:08.000 He made sure to make me aware of it when I was growing up.
01:26:10.000 He was like, I almost died coming here a number of times, so you better make something out of yourself, because if you don't, no one else will.
01:26:17.000 No one's gonna give you anything here.
01:26:18.000 You gotta work hard for it.
01:26:20.000 Was he like, why are you chasing around these people with a camera?
01:26:23.000 He was like, go to college, become a doctor or a lawyer.
01:26:26.000 I'm like, I hate all these people and college is a scam and the whole economy is going to fail.
01:26:32.000 And then this was right before 2008.
01:26:33.000 I remember that car ride going to school.
01:26:35.000 I was like, I'll do it for them.
01:26:37.000 Because otherwise I wish I would have never gone to school, but I did it for them.
01:26:40.000 I got my little piece of paper.
01:26:41.000 I gave it to them as soon as I graduated.
01:26:43.000 I'm like, here you go.
01:26:44.000 This is pointless.
01:26:45.000 I wasted a lot of money.
01:26:46.000 I wasted my time.
01:26:47.000 I made sure I took no money from them.
01:26:48.000 I worked a full-time job doing that.
01:26:50.000 But this is the kind of ethic that they teach you.
01:26:52.000 You got to work for it.
01:26:53.000 You can't take out loans.
01:26:54.000 You can't borrow money that you don't have.
01:26:56.000 You have to earn it.
01:26:57.000 You have to work for it.
01:26:59.000 And that's something that I see a lot of people missing.
01:27:01.000 People don't have that.
01:27:02.000 People don't have that hunger or that, you know, people always said, you know, like, hey, they went to journalism school, and I remember being there with them.
01:27:09.000 They're like, yeah, we got to wait four years.
01:27:11.000 We're going to go through all the lessons, and we're going to go out there and maybe interview some politicians.
01:27:15.000 I said, screw you!
01:27:16.000 I'm stealing a press credential, finding out how you guys do it, making it on my own, and facing the mayor off next week.
01:27:22.000 And I did, and the mayor ended up calling the school, getting me in trouble.
01:27:25.000 That's a different story.
01:27:27.000 But I went out there.
01:27:28.000 I hated these politicians who were lying to the people.
01:27:28.000 I was hungry.
01:27:31.000 No journalist was asking them any legitimate questions.
01:27:33.000 And I was like, I have to do it because no one else is doing it.
01:27:36.000 This is my opportunity to finally fill a void in society that could help them.
01:27:41.000 And that's when I went on my spree, confronting all the politicians all throughout the United States.
01:27:45.000 There's two American dreams in this story.
01:27:47.000 Your mom and your dad fleeing a hardship to give you a better life, and you coming from a family that had to flee and then making a better life for yourself through hard work.
01:27:57.000 That's the American Dream.
01:27:58.000 It exists, it's waiting right there for you.
01:27:59.000 It was coined by James Truslow Adams in 1931, American Dream, and his quote, Life should be better and richer and fuller for everyone, with opportunity for each according to ability or achievement.
01:28:09.000 I agree with the sentiment.
01:28:11.000 The reality is, the Federal Reserve is deciding who gets the money.
01:28:15.000 And if you were born into poverty, you don't have any money.
01:28:18.000 So the dream is like, were you born into wealth?
01:28:20.000 Did you listen to a word we just said?
01:28:22.000 Yeah, the upward mobility, like free speech allows for people to create great work.
01:28:27.000 But unless you play the game, the fascist game, you're not- What game is Luke?
01:28:32.000 Is Luke getting federal- He's paying taxes, he's supporting the war in Iraq by paying taxes.
01:28:37.000 Oh, come on.
01:28:37.000 It's not personal, but we've all been part of this.
01:28:40.000 There's very few people in the world who have done more combating the false narratives of the war in Iraq than Luke.
01:28:47.000 Dude, Luke is a golden god.
01:28:49.000 Let me just get that on the table.
01:28:50.000 A little exaggeration there.
01:28:53.000 My point is, there's a lot of bad things.
01:28:56.000 We fight against them.
01:28:57.000 But the reality is in the United States, which is very different from many other countries on this planet, you can be dirt poor and work hard and succeed.
01:29:05.000 And there's one factor, they found this is scientifically proven, perseverance.
01:29:10.000 Well, you can be rich and fail.
01:29:13.000 Read these studies, they're very fascinating.
01:29:16.000 There was a TED Talk I watched where they said they went to kids who were born to multi-millionaire families, to billionaire families, and these kids were failing.
01:29:24.000 Hunter Biden, look at him, how about that?
01:29:26.000 And they say, what was causing them to struggle and fail so often?
01:29:28.000 Now, of course, with rich families, they're never homeless, but the dude's teeth right out of his face, his laptop is full of all this destruction and chaos, total failure.
01:29:39.000 It was, there was one factor, no matter how rich you are, no matter how smart you are, no matter how strong you are, perseverance was the one factor in success.
01:29:46.000 And Miles, I think you also take life by the balls as well.
01:29:49.000 You've taken advantage of some crazy situations, traveled everywhere.
01:29:52.000 What's some of the craziest places, what's the craziest place you traveled to?
01:29:56.000 Well, apart from a Tim Cass studio, I...
01:29:59.000 I would honestly say main places in Afghanistan and those people there work very hard as well and they've got the same issue they do in America because in America you know you pay for an expensive degree and you can't get a job afterwards basically even if it's sometimes a good degree.
01:30:15.000 In Afghanistan, they actually get free and very heavily subsidized degrees as well, so these people have pharmacy jobs and they're actually just working on the street selling bananas.
01:30:26.000 So they have the same issues, I think, at the end of the day.
01:30:29.000 And that's why I think Afghanistan's crazy.
01:30:31.000 It's basically a failed US state, because that's what it was for 20 years, that's what they did, they made it a puppet state.
01:30:38.000 And then now you're seeing it all crumble down.
01:30:39.000 You would need a hundred years of social engineering to actually succeed with this nation-building stuff.
01:30:46.000 It's ridiculous.
01:30:47.000 Ridiculous concept.
01:30:48.000 This will be controversial.
01:30:49.000 If you really want to nation-build, you cannot have the population survive.
01:30:53.000 Because at the end of the day, these people are not going to give up their religion and their beliefs.
01:30:56.000 And they're very solid.
01:30:57.000 And they're completely different from Western beliefs.
01:31:00.000 You see that in Europe as well.
01:31:01.000 You see all these People coming across illegally and they just don't integrate, they just don't get on.
01:31:06.000 And with Afghanistan, it just made them a bit more radical.
01:31:09.000 Yeah, well, this is why you need a hundred years.
01:31:12.000 You need to erase previous generations.
01:31:14.000 You need to have the kids who are growing up be brought up in a culture that is westernized American.
01:31:20.000 And then when they grow up, you have to keep separating the younger generations from the older generations so that a hundred years can go by and you can have erased their culture and traditions.
01:31:31.000 It's the only way you'd be able to do it.
01:31:33.000 Tough to do because Afghanistan is a desert.
01:31:35.000 So you got like the greater things about the United States that makes it us able to live like this with huge cities is the imports of grain and corn and stuff like that.
01:31:44.000 Afghanistan has none of that.
01:31:45.000 Afghanistan's technically not even a country at the end of the day.
01:31:48.000 Before the British invaded, it was just an enclave of several states surrounded by mountains, and you'd have a village here, then they would contact the other village on the other side of the mountain, and it was a bunch of tribes infighting.
01:32:00.000 But then, when they were pressured by the Russian Empire and the British Empire, they basically came together and said, oh, one struggle, and fought every single person.
01:32:07.000 You know, with the American dream conversation, like there are there is room for upper mobility.
01:32:13.000 I agree with that.
01:32:13.000 But I think this this what is this guy's name again, that created the term?
01:32:19.000 Anyway, the guy that created the term, it's 1931.
01:32:20.000 It sounds like Federal Reserve propaganda.
01:32:22.000 If you work hard, you can make it.
01:32:24.000 They just want a bunch of slave workers.
01:32:26.000 Like hard work doesn't get you anywhere.
01:32:28.000 If you do it every day at McDonald's, you got to work smart.
01:32:31.000 That's true.
01:32:32.000 You will be working for $14 an hour until you're 60.
01:32:35.000 It's about learning service.
01:32:36.000 You can learn by working at McDonald's how customers work, what people are buying, when they're buying it.
01:32:41.000 You could meet like-minded individuals.
01:32:43.000 You could make connections there.
01:32:44.000 You could learn how businesses are run.
01:32:46.000 You could learn customer management.
01:32:47.000 You could learn so much about why McDonald's is successful, and you could take what you learn from being inside of that company, learning their secrets, and implement them in your own business.
01:32:56.000 Didn't the CEO of UPS start as a loader of a truck or something?
01:33:00.000 I think so, yeah.
01:33:01.000 And there's a lot of those stories.
01:33:03.000 How many people can do this though?
01:33:04.000 How many people could be entrepreneurs?
01:33:05.000 How many people could start their own business or do their own little independent side?
01:33:08.000 Probably 1 in 13,000 of the population.
01:33:10.000 Scientifically, all that matters is perseverance.
01:33:14.000 As long as you remain convicted to your goals, you succeed.
01:33:20.000 I see a lot of people trying.
01:33:23.000 Okay, I read tons of scientific studies where they tracked decades of people.
01:33:28.000 But unless you're smart.
01:33:29.000 Just look it up.
01:33:29.000 Unless you're smart, you will continue to repeat the same problem that's keeping you in the position.
01:33:34.000 A little bit of smart, but hungry.
01:33:35.000 Perseverance and wanting it really bad.
01:33:38.000 That's the key right there that a lot of people are missing and they give up because their mental mind state is that they're going to be unsuccessful.
01:33:44.000 You've got to be smart to succeed in the United States.
01:33:46.000 You gotta be hungry.
01:33:47.000 To come from no money and to make money, you gotta be smart.
01:33:49.000 That's not true.
01:33:49.000 But how can you be hungry when you've got loads of fast food to be given to you, when everything's being handed?
01:33:54.000 Someone assume a platter.
01:33:55.000 You're not starving, but at the same time, you're staying afloat and that's keeping people complacent.
01:34:00.000 At the end of the day, it's a choice.
01:34:02.000 and that choice is go to McDonald's, go get some beef liver, go get some vegetables.
01:34:06.000 They're a lot cheaper, but it's all about where you decide to take your time.
01:34:10.000 And I think the one thing that is standing in the way is taxes, regulations, and rules,
01:34:14.000 and licenses that do prevent a lot of people from starting their own businesses, from being
01:34:18.000 able to commence commerce. Where in the United States, we have police officers shutting down
01:34:23.000 lemonade stands. If we should be doing one thing, is teaching people positive mindsets,
01:34:27.000 and at the same time, getting government out of the way, so people could fix our problems
01:34:32.000 financially through just pure real capitalism.
01:34:35.000 We're gonna go to Super Chats if you haven't already.

01:34:47.000 And don't forget, head over to losingmymind.net.
01:34:52.000 Pre-save the new song, Genocide.
01:34:55.000 The video's coming out Friday morning along with the song.
01:34:58.000 The song, it's overtly political.
01:35:00.000 We're putting it right before the election for that reason.
01:35:01.000 The music video is even better.
01:35:04.000 Even better.
01:35:05.000 The song is, um, it's basically about institutions and, uh, that's, there's a reason why it's called Genocide.
01:35:11.000 I'm losing my mind.
01:35:12.000 It is a, and, and you'll notice the image on losingmymind.net is a news anchor desk with the COVID, uh, with, with, I'm sorry, I didn't say that, a virus.
01:35:20.000 A virus.
01:35:21.000 An unknown virus.
01:35:22.000 A sickness.
01:35:23.000 An unlabeled sickness.
01:35:25.000 What is it called?
01:35:26.000 It's a specific kind of virus.
01:35:27.000 I don't know.
01:35:28.000 COVID's a specific type of virus.
01:35:29.000 What kind of virus is it?
01:35:30.000 Coronavirus.
01:35:31.000 It's a coronavirus, yes.
01:35:32.000 It's a nondescript coronavirus.
01:35:35.000 Is there a smiley face?
01:35:36.000 There's a smiley face.
01:35:37.000 Oh, it's gorgeous.
01:35:37.000 All right, here we go.
01:35:38.000 Matthew Reckamp says, Seamus has made several parody political ads recently.
01:35:44.000 Could you ask him for me what it would take to get him to buy ad space on YouTube for them?
01:35:50.000 Perhaps.
01:35:51.000 I don't know what you're referring to, though.
01:35:53.000 All right.
01:35:54.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr.
01:35:55.000 in the chat, he says, Tim, harumph, I say.
01:35:57.000 No amnesty, no compromise, no mas.
01:36:00.000 We try to be reasonable.
01:36:01.000 They have decided this for us.
01:36:03.000 Fine.
01:36:04.000 Now, fire with fire is the only way.
01:36:05.000 They're going to wish they just let us just be.
01:36:09.000 I'm saying, I hope many of these MAGA Republicans file subpoenas, launch investigations, Joe Biden gets impeached, all of that stuff we saw under Democrats.
01:36:21.000 Normies Get Out says, Luke, I'll buy all your shirts if you say abolish the ATF in your intro.
01:36:27.000 Well, it's too late for that, but I should make an abolished ATF shirt.
01:36:32.000 But yeah, abolished ATF, obviously.
01:36:34.000 Why wouldn't he say that?
01:36:35.000 That's like an easy one.
01:36:37.000 I saw that one and I thought he meant you have to abolish the actual agency and then he would buy all the shirts, but you don't have to buy all the shirts.
01:36:47.000 Darkos says, I didn't believe Ian was 43.
01:36:47.000 Thank you for that.
01:36:51.000 And when I look him up, I can't find his current age anywhere except for a place that said he was 31 and went by Crossmac.
01:36:57.000 Yeah, that's my first YouTube channel is Crossmac.
01:36:59.000 And you can see I was 26 when I started making videos in 2006, 27, something like that.
01:37:04.000 I don't know how to confirm it, though.
01:37:04.000 Born in 79.
01:37:07.000 Ian's actually 23.
01:37:08.000 23 years old.
01:37:09.000 23 years old.
01:37:10.000 Very young man.
01:37:11.000 Very young.
01:37:13.000 Let's see what we got here.
01:37:16.000 Toy News Quarterly says, if politics are frustrating you, I'm starting a magazine focused on action figures and toy photography.
01:37:23.000 Find me on Instagram.
01:37:29.000 There you go.
01:37:32.000 I Am says, Eon is playing the slow game, and that's how the left always wins, by obstructing every move along the way.
01:37:38.000 He needs a rapid action plan to win.
01:37:41.000 Right.
01:37:42.000 He goes in and says, I can't act rationally, I'm going to talk to them, and then they just slowly erode and claw.
01:37:50.000 And then eventually he's just sitting there along with the woke council being like, I understand why you want to ban Alex Jones again.
01:37:57.000 Yeah, that makes sense.
01:37:58.000 We can't let him back on the platform.
01:38:00.000 There you go.
01:38:01.000 There's a good Elon impression down.
01:38:05.000 Allahad says, Tim, how come you are releasing this song the same day as Tom McDonald?
01:38:09.000 Too much awesomeness for me.
01:38:11.000 Thank you for recommending his music.
01:38:12.000 Much love from Mexico.
01:38:13.000 Tom McDonald's fantastic.
01:38:15.000 He's got a song coming out.
01:38:17.000 So the reason people put music out on Fridays is because that's when Billboard begins calculating the metrics for the song.
01:38:24.000 And the reason why Friday's going to be a big song release day, especially if you do political music, is because the election is that Tuesday.
01:38:30.000 So we really want this song to hit right before the election.
01:38:35.000 We want people on Monday to be listening to it.
01:38:39.000 The video itself, I think, it's probably going to be controversial.
01:38:45.000 It literally will be controversial and probably generate a bunch of... I'll end up trending on Twitter because of it.
01:38:51.000 Ian's got the best part in it, in my opinion.
01:38:54.000 I'm not going to say too much.
01:38:55.000 But the video itself, You know, we're just pushing some boundaries.
01:39:00.000 Great surprise guests.
01:39:01.000 That's all.
01:39:02.000 Great surprise guests.
01:39:05.000 Technically not.
01:39:05.000 Technically not.
01:39:06.000 Technically so.
01:39:07.000 Technically not.
01:39:08.000 Metaphorically.
01:39:10.000 You know, for, what's the right way to say this?
01:39:12.000 Figuratively.
01:39:14.000 Figurative guests.
01:39:15.000 Yes.
01:39:16.000 And legally distinct from guests appearances.
01:39:19.000 Yes, yes.
01:39:22.000 All right, everyone, you're all hyped up.
01:39:22.000 There you go.
01:39:23.000 LosingMyMind.net.
01:39:25.000 Okay.
01:39:27.000 Misero says, Tim, can you shout out one very important thought by Boards of Canada?
01:39:31.000 I think everyone should hear it.
01:39:32.000 Well, there you go.
01:39:33.000 Is that a song or something?
01:39:34.000 Yeah, it is.
01:39:35.000 Boards of Canada.
01:39:36.000 Oh, cool.
01:39:38.000 All right.
01:39:40.000 Samuel Latcher says, get ready for lots of delayed election results due to extended vote counting.
01:39:45.000 Tim, where are the 4 p.m.
01:39:46.000 segments?
01:39:47.000 I never see them on YouTube.
01:39:48.000 They're on YouTube?
01:39:50.000 I see them.
01:39:50.000 I don't know.
01:39:51.000 Yeah.
01:39:53.000 They're there.
01:39:55.000 A Friday and Monday I did live streams, though.
01:39:58.000 Oh, that might be it.
01:40:00.000 Yeah, if you didn't see those two, but it's crazy.
01:40:03.000 I might... YouTube is basically screaming in my face to do live streams instead of recorded segments because they got like double the views of a standard video by going live.
01:40:11.000 So, it could just be that there was really big news, sure, but I think YouTube probably just likes live streams.
01:40:17.000 Probably.
01:40:20.000 KCB says, question for Ian.
01:40:22.000 If given the choice between open source internet or perfecting nanotube nano onion technology, which are you picking?
01:40:31.000 Open sourcing, it's not enough.
01:40:32.000 If you were gonna free the software code of large social networks, I'd choose that.
01:40:35.000 But it needs to be AGPL-3 as a software license, because people are gonna take them and add things to it, and we need the additions to also be free.
01:40:43.000 We can make the graphing on our own.
01:40:43.000 I go with that.
01:40:46.000 Chad says, Tim, it's Chad from Twitter.
01:40:48.000 Please return my wife's calls, you stud.
01:40:51.000 No!
01:40:52.000 She needs to leave me alone!
01:40:55.000 I guess, I don't know.
01:40:56.000 Sure.
01:40:56.000 All right.
01:40:58.000 Gabriel Martinez says, Luke, Satan was unavailable.
01:41:00.000 It's called the ADL.
01:41:02.000 Revelations 2.9.
01:41:03.000 Yikes.
01:41:05.000 Kaper2x says, the quarterings Jeremy is right.
01:41:08.000 Turning Twitter around is like steering a super tanker.
01:41:12.000 It's impossible to do it on a dime.
01:41:13.000 Let's give Elon time to understand the mechanics of the place before starting the radical changes.
01:41:19.000 Yeah, but don't add fuel when it's going in the wrong direction.
01:41:22.000 And that's exactly what he did.
01:41:25.000 Miss Mary says, I hope everyone realizes that Elon is up against a whole lot of powerful people who could destroy the entire platform at their whim.
01:41:32.000 He has to work with what he has until he can build what he wants.
01:41:36.000 Agreed.
01:41:37.000 Agreed.
01:41:39.000 Michael D'Ambrosio.
01:41:40.000 Hey Tim, native Fredneck here.
01:41:42.000 Kinda odd having my hometown always talked about of such a random place.
01:41:47.000 Libs and Democrats invaded out West to flee what they created in Baltimore and PG&DC.
01:41:53.000 That's right, now they're coming here.
01:41:54.000 They're coming to West Virginia!
01:41:57.000 Yeah, oh man.
01:41:59.000 It's funny because in West Virginia, you know, there's raccoons, there's bears, there's critters, and people go out and, well, you know, use guns, depending on the critter.
01:42:08.000 And then you can tell when someone's from D.C.
01:42:12.000 because they'll post online complaining about, like, the gunshots or whatever, and then all the natives are just like, is this a joke?
01:42:18.000 Like, I remember I went outside, we're even in Maryland, and it sounds like automatic gunfire going off for like two hours.
01:42:24.000 Because there's just a ton of people all shooting guns like crazy, and this is Maryland.
01:42:28.000 You know, but when you're in Western Maryland, you're basically West Virginia, these counties try to secede.
01:42:32.000 They shoot letters like, we want to join West Virginia, we don't like Maryland.
01:42:35.000 I think that'd be great.
01:42:39.000 What is this?
01:42:40.000 Bilks, oh boy, I can't read what your name is, but he says, came across a Gizmodo article today on Yahoo related to Julie Powell's last tweet.
01:42:48.000 They say you capitalize on premature deaths to push a narrative, basically.
01:42:52.000 Sounds like slander to me.
01:42:53.000 Yeah, she was the lady who, she died.
01:42:55.000 She was 49.
01:42:56.000 And she had, her last tweet was that she had black hairy tongue.
01:43:01.000 Yeah, dead cells on her tongue.
01:43:02.000 Her previous tweets were also just very shocking and very bombastic.
01:43:09.000 Stinky Wizzleteats says, where's the beef, Elon?
01:43:12.000 Tim Poole.
01:43:14.000 We bought those epic protein bars.
01:43:14.000 The beef?
01:43:16.000 Oh, I just had one.
01:43:17.000 They're so good.
01:43:18.000 Yeah.
01:43:18.000 Amazing.
01:43:19.000 It melts in my mouth.
01:43:19.000 It's crazy.
01:43:21.000 And it's meat.
01:43:23.000 Which one did you, with the beef?
01:43:23.000 Yeah.
01:43:25.000 Yeah, the jalapeno.
01:43:26.000 Jalapeno beef, so good.
01:43:28.000 So we got protein bars.
01:43:30.000 We wanted to get, like, the least amount of ingredients possible, and it's just, like, pepper, garlic, onions, beef.
01:43:37.000 Did you have one, Milo?
01:43:38.000 No, I need one.
01:43:38.000 You got for me one later.
01:43:40.000 Yeah, we got a bunch of them.
01:43:41.000 We'll grab one when we do the numbers.
01:43:43.000 You don't need more than one.
01:43:43.000 Real salty, though.
01:43:44.000 They're not that salty.
01:43:45.000 Unless you're working out a lot, I guess.
01:43:46.000 They're not that salty.
01:43:48.000 I had two and I oversalted.
01:43:49.000 Are you sure?
01:43:50.000 But I wasn't sweating.
01:43:51.000 I don't think there's a lot of salt in them.
01:43:52.000 They're really made for if you're on the road or if you're working out.
01:43:54.000 Like, that is really what those things are for.
01:43:57.000 Replenish your salt.
01:43:58.000 Whoa, look at this!
01:43:59.000 Mike E says, cut all the excess carbs in my diet this time last year after hearing Tim's success with it.
01:44:04.000 I started at 395 last year and I weighed in at 300 today.
01:44:08.000 Woo!
01:44:08.000 Congratulations, dude!
01:44:10.000 Wow!
01:44:10.000 Props, man.
01:44:11.000 See, that's what I'm talking about.
01:44:12.000 Get those sugars out of there, man.
01:44:13.000 Good job, man.
01:44:14.000 I mean, I'm not a doctor.
01:44:15.000 I'll just tell you what I did.
01:44:16.000 I got rid of the sugar and I dropped 30 pounds in like, I dropped 20 pounds in like a month.
01:44:20.000 And then after that, like a couple months later, the next 10 just came off.
01:44:24.000 So that's what it's all about.
01:44:25.000 Get those sugars out of there.
01:44:27.000 And you know what I find, too?
01:44:28.000 It's like, if you can go a few days without the sugar, you get disgusted by it almost.
01:44:32.000 Yeah, definitely.
01:44:33.000 You know, so I went, we went, got like bubble tea or whatever, and those little balls are very sugar, they're starchy.
01:44:38.000 Tapioca balls.
01:44:39.000 Yeah, but like, They told me they don't put extra sugar in it.
01:44:43.000 And when I gave it to me, I took a sip and it was, it tasted like drinking like actual Mrs. Butterworth's.
01:44:48.000 It was like, imagine someone, I'm just like, I can't do this, man.
01:44:51.000 The sugary drinks is where they get you.
01:44:53.000 There's so much high fructose corn syrup in there.
01:44:55.000 And if you start cutting it down, if you have a full dose of it, like I remember before a couple of years ago, I just had, you know, full doses of full drinks.
01:45:03.000 And I'm like, this is absolutely insane.
01:45:05.000 And you just feel nasty when you, when you drink it.
01:45:08.000 I've done the complete opposite.
01:45:09.000 When coming to America, I've eaten the typical American diet of just fast food every single day, just because I want to try it, and I feel terrible, man.
01:45:16.000 It's so bad.
01:45:18.000 When I get home, I'm going to lose so much weight.
01:45:20.000 Chick-fil-A's worth it sometimes.
01:45:22.000 Atypical American diet.
01:45:23.000 That's what I want to start referring to that crap as.
01:45:24.000 That is an atypical lifestyle.
01:45:27.000 Alright, CJB says, Tim, you neglect to consider Elon may be using these organizations on the Disinfo board to run interference with media, advertisers, and app stores.
01:45:35.000 It really could be political chess, and Musk gets final say on Banz.
01:45:39.000 I have considered that, and my point is, with the opening segment, even after he brought these people in, they still attacked him.
01:45:46.000 Even after he said, we're going to police hate speech, they're still quitting the platform.
01:45:50.000 There is nothing you can do, they're psychotic and in a cult.
01:45:55.000 So Elon can keep being like, you know, I'm gonna talk to them and play 4D chess.
01:45:59.000 Doesn't matter.
01:46:00.000 Nothing he does is going to appease a bunch of cultists.
01:46:04.000 But I get it, to be fair.
01:46:05.000 You know, he's trying.
01:46:06.000 Sure, let's see what happens.
01:46:07.000 Let's see what happens.
01:46:08.000 I still think we're looking at a net positive with his purchase, but you know.
01:46:13.000 What do we got?
01:46:15.000 Kiel says Elon needs to say F the money.
01:46:19.000 He could take any of his private companies public and increase his net worth overnight.
01:46:23.000 Someone has to say no to government.
01:46:25.000 Yeah.
01:46:26.000 SpaceX.
01:46:27.000 It's not public.
01:46:28.000 There's a lot of money sitting right there.
01:46:30.000 Yeah, but you know who's going for shares?
01:46:32.000 The leftists.
01:46:33.000 And then they go control it.
01:46:34.000 Do I have a majority?
01:46:36.000 Depends on how many cells.
01:46:37.000 We're not going to Mars, we're going to Uranus.
01:46:41.000 No Uranus.
01:46:45.000 Juiced Cyber Newtype says, at this point, the best we can hope for is that Elon runs Twitter into the ground and it ceases to exist, then a better alternative can rise up.
01:46:55.000 Yeah, I mean, if tomorrow I woke up, like I said, it's a picture of Elon's face winking, being like, Twitter's gone, I'd be like, okay, well, I'm on Truth Social, I guess.
01:47:02.000 Just go there.
01:47:03.000 I mean, I just don't really care for Twitter.
01:47:07.000 It was already run into the ground by the previous administration.
01:47:11.000 And I sat there and I talked with Jack and Vijaya and they're psychotic.
01:47:17.000 Jack Dorsey, I think, is actually one of the worst.
01:47:20.000 People say, like, you know, he was a figurehead.
01:47:22.000 He didn't really have any power or authority.
01:47:24.000 The dude had public persuasion.
01:47:27.000 He could have said things and that would have been enough, but he didn't even do that.
01:47:30.000 So spare me.
01:47:33.000 I don't believe he was trying to do anything, man.
01:47:36.000 Okay, where are we at?
01:47:38.000 Jason Lippert says, I think Elon's goal is to have Twitter follow the Overton window rather than pushing the Overton window.
01:47:45.000 Maybe.
01:47:47.000 Anthony Richardson says, Soon, MTG as House Speaker 2023.
01:47:50.000 How do we make this happen?
01:47:52.000 Convince a bunch of rhinos not to vote for Kevin McCarthy?
01:47:56.000 Good luck.
01:47:59.000 David Oprah says, if you want to haggle with Elon over the price of Twitter Blue, then $4.20 is your best bet.
01:48:05.000 I cancelled my Twitter Blue today when I saw that Elon was consorting with New Knowledge and these grievance organizations.
01:48:12.000 I was like, I signed up when they announced it, because they said that it gives you access to all these different news organizations, so you can read their stuff.
01:48:20.000 And I was like, okay, so instead of giving the Washington Post 10 bucks a month, and the Wall Street Journal and other organizations, I can just give one fee to Twitter and then read these articles?
01:48:28.000 It never worked.
01:48:30.000 It would be like free with Twitter blue, and I'd click it, and it just wouldn't work.
01:48:34.000 And then I just never got around to getting rid of it.
01:48:36.000 Then when I saw Elon was like, you know, I'm gonna charge money and then go work with these grievance organizations, I was like, I'm out.
01:48:42.000 You know, I'm more than willing to pay for Twitter at a moment's notice.
01:48:45.000 The moment I see him restore these people, like, you put back on Project Veritas, I'll sign right back up.
01:48:52.000 How about that?
01:48:53.000 I want to see some real actions to restore those who are falsely removed.
01:48:56.000 And he's saying it's going to take a few weeks, and it's like, okay, well, you know, then in a few weeks, I'll sign back up.
01:49:00.000 For the time being, I ain't giving you any more money.
01:49:02.000 If it's in a couple weeks, then they're not gonna lose anything.
01:49:05.000 How about that?
01:49:06.000 But I don't think anyone should give Twitter money until Elon unbans the political prisoners.
01:49:12.000 There's absolutely no reason to do it.
01:49:13.000 Not for a blue check or anything else.
01:49:15.000 If he's not going to actually stand up for free speech, don't give a garbage platform free money.
01:49:21.000 The left is mad because he's actually gonna start.
01:49:23.000 He's argued that.
01:49:24.000 So they're saying they're not gonna pay him because he wants free speech.
01:49:27.000 Okay, well, you know, pick where you're getting your money from.
01:49:31.000 PowderPZ says Crowder got suspended from YouTube for two weeks.
01:49:34.000 He hasn't been given a reason yet.
01:49:35.000 Now he won't be able to livestream the election.
01:49:37.000 Yo, that's legit insane.
01:49:39.000 Dude, I wonder if that's from the video we were watching earlier.
01:49:41.000 He had that doctor on.
01:49:42.000 Nope, that was on Rumble.
01:49:44.000 Yeah.
01:49:44.000 Oh.
01:49:44.000 He's been interviewing someone?
01:49:45.000 Now that he's on Rumble, he can say whatever.
01:49:47.000 But they didn't give him a reason why they gave him a strike.
01:49:49.000 Check out Crowder on Rumble.
01:49:50.000 He's been saying some interesting stuff.
01:49:52.000 Yeah, uncensored.
01:49:53.000 He deserves a reason, you guys.
01:49:55.000 Send him something.
01:49:56.000 I think he needs to sue.
01:49:58.000 Crowder, you should file a lawsuit immediately.
01:50:00.000 I'm not even kidding.
01:50:01.000 We saw what happened with Alex Berenson.
01:50:04.000 File a lawsuit if they're not giving you... I suppose the issue is if they don't give you a reason, that's their actual legal defense.
01:50:11.000 It's when they give you a reason you have standing to sue because now they're in breach of contract if their reason is BS.
01:50:17.000 Yeah, I don't think it's ethical to ban anyone for any reason at any time.
01:50:20.000 It's like they're trying to scare him by not telling him what he exactly did.
01:50:23.000 So he, again, is just afraid to even talk.
01:50:26.000 Doug Blask says you're dropping on the same day as Tom McDonald.
01:50:29.000 Bold move, Tim.
01:50:30.000 Maybe not smart, but bold.
01:50:32.000 Actually, it's ridiculously smart.
01:50:34.000 Why would that be a bad thing?
01:50:36.000 It's not like a song is a three-hour movie.
01:50:38.000 We're both going to put out songs that are going to be between three and four minutes.
01:50:42.000 Shout out to Tom MacDonald.
01:50:43.000 We'll shout out his song.
01:50:44.000 And you can listen to both of them.
01:50:46.000 Yeah, you can support both artists.
01:50:49.000 Vote with your dollar.
01:50:50.000 Yeah, but we're also doing big marketing pushes and big traditional stuff, so actually, I think this song is going to do substantially better than the first song we put out.
01:51:02.000 So, we put out Only Ever Wanted, what was it, at the end of September?
01:51:06.000 And this is like, it's an apolitical song, so we know that we're gonna get a bunch of attention from the first song we put out, so we're gonna put it out.
01:51:14.000 It did really well, it charted on a bunch of different charts across the board on Billboard, hit number two in sales, and so, all really, really good.
01:51:21.000 Now, everyone knows that we do music, the next one's gotta be meaningful, so we're putting out a political song right before the election, and we're doing traditional marketing with it, so I think it's gonna do way better, actually, but we'll see.
01:51:34.000 Gerald Armstrong says, Lord Miles, you have competition now, now since Tim is a Scottish Lord.
01:51:39.000 That's right.
01:51:40.000 Yeah, I showed him right when he walked in that I'm a lord.
01:51:41.000 It's very nice, but my certificate's a little bit fancier.
01:51:44.000 Plus, is it on your bank card yet?
01:51:46.000 No, can I do that?
01:51:47.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.
01:51:47.000 You walk into the bank, you pick the busiest hour, right, because they won't care, you know, they're not paid enough.
01:51:53.000 And you go with a nice suit, so you think, wow, you're wearing a suit, you can't be wrong, you know, just like every banker.
01:51:57.000 And then you just slide across, say you bought some land in Scotland, they say, wow, so true, and just put it on your credit file.
01:52:04.000 Yeah?
01:52:05.000 I don't know how that works in the U.S., though.
01:52:05.000 Yeah.
01:52:06.000 You're talking about U.S.
01:52:07.000 or U.K.?
01:52:08.000 U.K., but I think it's very similar.
01:52:10.000 Plus, it's worth a try, man.
01:52:11.000 I should bring in the little plaque.
01:52:11.000 Think about it.
01:52:12.000 It says, Proclamation, Your Lord.
01:52:14.000 Yeah, you could have mail start saying, Lord Poole, that arrives at the house.
01:52:18.000 Or at the office.
01:52:19.000 I've looked into it a little bit.
01:52:20.000 I believe it's possible.
01:52:21.000 I own land.
01:52:22.000 Thank you, my lord.
01:52:23.000 I'll try.
01:52:24.000 You're not my lord.
01:52:25.000 I gotta be honest though, I'm pretty sure I can pull up my app for my credit card right now, and they let you put any name you want in.
01:52:31.000 So, this is City Card.
01:52:34.000 When they announced they're doing the identity card or whatever it's called, where you can name yourself whatever you want and they'll give you the card, people put in racial slurs and it worked.
01:52:42.000 Wow.
01:52:44.000 I've got a few ideas back home.
01:52:45.000 Yikes, man.
01:52:48.000 Jason Van Cleve says, you say virtue signal, but what we have seen from Elon is an attempt to be as transparent as possible.
01:52:55.000 I also think it's funny that they dropped the price from 20 bucks a month to eight because he haggled with, uh, uh, who was it?
01:52:55.000 I get it.
01:53:01.000 Stephen King.
01:53:03.000 He was haggling with Stephen King on Twitter and they dropped the price.
01:53:06.000 That's hilarious.
01:53:07.000 Big ask.
01:53:07.000 He did the big ask.
01:53:08.000 Well, somebody, somebody commented.
01:53:10.000 They said, in case you were wondering if Elon thought this through, he's currently haggling the price of Twitter blue with Stephen King on Twitter.
01:53:16.000 And I'm like, that's actually really funny.
01:53:19.000 I didn't plan this one out.
01:53:22.000 All right.
01:53:23.000 Agamemnon's Gym Bag says, Lord Miles, you absolute legend.
01:53:26.000 Loved watching you and Callum in Afghanistan.
01:53:28.000 Where are you heading next?
01:53:30.000 Well, I can't talk about where I'm going next because the country might not let me in.
01:53:30.000 Oh, thank you.
01:53:34.000 But on the side, there's an Antolian relative.
01:53:36.000 There's an island called Snake Island in Brazil.
01:53:39.000 So if you guys want to Google that and look into it, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
01:53:45.000 You were there with Callum?
01:53:46.000 So there's the two of you guys?
01:53:47.000 I didn't know you were there with him.
01:53:48.000 I watched the video.
01:53:49.000 Yeah, I invite him to Afghanistan as a joke, and he actually went through with it, and I thought, why not?
01:53:54.000 Okay.
01:53:54.000 That was powerful, man.
01:53:56.000 That was good.
01:53:56.000 Watching the Taliban people, the one spokesman for the Taliban, he was like, what do you think of Joe Biden?
01:54:01.000 The guy's like, we all love Joe Biden because he left us all this equipment that you see them driving.
01:54:05.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:54:06.000 No, when I went to the weapons market in one of my YouTube videos, I bought ex-US military gear and just started shooting with it.
01:54:12.000 I went shooting with a tire ban.
01:54:14.000 You know the armored vehicles, the Humvees?
01:54:17.000 In America, they cost around a million dollars to buy.
01:54:20.000 Over there, $15,000.
01:54:22.000 I saw 50 pieces of night vision goggles.
01:54:25.000 They retail here, $22,000.
01:54:26.000 Over there, $300 a piece.
01:54:30.000 Hey, we gotta go to Afghanistan.
01:54:31.000 The issue is, the sanctions mean you can't get them out.
01:54:33.000 I actually thought, oh, I could take it through the Horn of Africa, then go through this way, and then I realise I'll be thrown in a US black site for like 50 years.
01:54:44.000 I wonder if they'll just be like...
01:54:47.000 For those that are just listening, I'm holding out my hand.
01:54:49.000 Give it back.
01:54:50.000 Get out of here.
01:54:51.000 Like, like, it's theirs.
01:54:52.000 I would have been like, my tax dollars paid for this.
01:54:55.000 I'm getting it back at a lower cost.
01:54:57.000 But that's, I mean, that's evidence that the- $300, $20,000 night vision.
01:55:01.000 By order to surrender, the equipment has now been sold on the black market.
01:55:05.000 Oh yeah, to China.
01:55:06.000 And, I mean, if Joe Biden hit me up and goes, you know, can you get some of that stuff out?
01:55:10.000 I could get a few units out.
01:55:11.000 Guaranteed.
01:55:12.000 He has to pay me a little bit.
01:55:13.000 Yeah, why would they not just buy it back at that point?
01:55:15.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:55:18.000 Beastly Devil says, Tim, I told you to watch Jordan Klepper's segment on visiting GOP rallies and spoke with Adam Kinzinger that claims if a civil war was to happen it would be the right-wingers that would die, no question.
01:55:29.000 Interesting, I'll have to check that out.
01:55:32.000 I don't think, you know, we've talked about this quite a bit, with the right things they're going to win no matter what, I don't think that's necessarily true.
01:55:37.000 People don't understand what exactly will go down.
01:55:40.000 In the Civil War, these generals were West Point graduates.
01:55:43.000 They were United States generals and military men who then switched.
01:55:47.000 So you have no idea what would happen.
01:55:49.000 There could be some high-ranking dude who goes, well, my family, you know, is in California, so sorry guys, I'm out.
01:55:56.000 And then you have no idea who you'll be fighting.
01:56:00.000 James Eaton says, what's stopping Dems going nuclear on the way out?
01:56:05.000 They are.
01:56:05.000 I mean, like, but what can they do?
01:56:07.000 You know?
01:56:09.000 Oh, here's, this one's interesting.
01:56:10.000 David C. Kronk Sr.
01:56:11.000 says, according to the Brazilian constitution, the military is the arbiter of election issues.
01:56:15.000 Huh.
01:56:16.000 Well, there you go, I guess.
01:56:18.000 We'll see what happens, man.
01:56:21.000 Chrome Gear IRL says, just saw a commercial of Kellogg's Frosted Flakes for dinner.
01:56:28.000 Oh.
01:56:30.000 That's the right response there, Ian.
01:56:31.000 Yeah, you beat me to it.
01:56:33.000 What is it?
01:56:33.000 Frosted Flakes.
01:56:35.000 Sugar-coated starch wads.
01:56:36.000 Wow, I should feed this to my children.
01:56:38.000 It's just so nice.
01:56:40.000 Frosted Flakes for dinner.
01:56:41.000 Isn't it kind of weird that we pour milk over cereal grains and then eat them?
01:56:44.000 Yeah, animal fat and sugar do not go well together.
01:56:47.000 That's something I've been learning.
01:56:49.000 One day I went downstairs and there was a carton of Half & Half just on the table, and I was like, Half & Half?
01:56:55.000 What's going on?
01:56:55.000 Wait, what's Half & Half?
01:56:56.000 Half & Half is, um, it's like milk liquids removed, so it's heavy.
01:57:01.000 It's a mix of cream.
01:57:02.000 How do you describe it?
01:57:04.000 It's Half & Half because it's like half cream, half milk.
01:57:06.000 So it's a very heavy creamed milk or whatever.
01:57:09.000 Just a dessert then, basically.
01:57:10.000 It's what?
01:57:11.000 Just a dessert.
01:57:12.000 Not really, we use it for coffee.
01:57:13.000 Oh, okay, okay.
01:57:15.000 But, you know, normally people put milk in their cereal, and then I came down and it was half and half in a carton, and then Seamus walks over and pours the half and half into his bowl of cereal, and I was just like, dude, what are you doing?
01:57:26.000 That's wild.
01:57:27.000 Yeah.
01:57:27.000 I mean, it's delicious.
01:57:29.000 Yeah, for sure.
01:57:30.000 Apparently half and half in... No wonder he's all cracked out all the time.
01:57:35.000 What is it?
01:57:35.000 In some cafes in Brussels, Dutch for half and half is a mixture of white wine and champagne.
01:57:41.000 Okay.
01:57:41.000 Depends on where you are.
01:57:42.000 I don't use half and half.
01:57:43.000 I use heavy cream.
01:57:44.000 We have excellent local farm organic heavy cream.
01:57:47.000 It is so amazing.
01:57:49.000 You put that in your coffee.
01:57:50.000 That's what you're supposed to do.
01:57:51.000 And do you whip it up?
01:57:52.000 You guys don't have F&F.
01:57:53.000 No, no, we just have terrible food in England.
01:57:54.000 do put it in put a little sugar on it and then whip it up sugar or I did
01:57:58.000 coconut sugar you can do whatever but I mean just a little you know actually
01:58:00.000 you don't need to and then you put it on this thick wad of cream you guys don't
01:58:04.000 have half and half no no we just have terrible food in England okay so
01:58:08.000 sometimes people just call it cream oh yeah a coffee with cream and they'll
01:58:12.000 bring out a little thing of half and half I remember I was in London and I
01:58:15.000 was at a hotel and I was at a right I was ordering breakfast and I said I'll
01:58:19.000 have coffee with cream and they went with cream and then I was like yeah and
01:58:24.000 she was like oh okay and then she looked confused and walked away and I was like
01:58:28.000 huh And then she came back with heavy whipping cream.
01:58:32.000 Oh.
01:58:33.000 Yeah.
01:58:33.000 Oh, I see.
01:58:34.000 Yeah, she's like, OK.
01:58:35.000 And then I was like, that's awesome.
01:58:37.000 All right.
01:58:37.000 This is a long time ago.
01:58:39.000 I didn't normally put heavy cream in my coffee.
01:58:41.000 Now I do it regularly every morning.
01:58:43.000 I have coffee, a nitro cold brew with heavy whipping cream.
01:58:43.000 That's what I have.
01:58:47.000 And then it takes me like five hours to drink that one cup because I drink it slowly.
01:58:51.000 And then I have eggs and bacon for breakfast.
01:58:53.000 So I whip the cream before I put the coffee in.
01:58:55.000 It's cool.
01:58:57.000 If you have one of those All right, Gamer Mac says Schumer is running in New York and up 12 right now.
01:59:00.000 It's like a vibrating, it has a battery in it. Weeeeee. Oh yeah. It froths it. Oh it's so thick and thick. Sometimes I'll
01:59:06.000 put it in the blender with ice and then it makes it like, almost like a milkshake. Yeah, it's good. Super awesome.
01:59:12.000 Yeah.
01:59:13.000 Alright, Gamer Mac says Schumer is running in New York and up 12 right now. I think Washington and Colorado are more
01:59:20.000 likely wildcards. Just go vote!
01:59:23.000 Go vote, y'all.
01:59:23.000 If every single Republican in New York voted, it would be a Republican state.
01:59:27.000 But too many people are like, I can't win, so I'm not gonna do it.
01:59:27.000 Hands down.
01:59:30.000 Don't get complacent, Chad.
01:59:31.000 Yeah, you just gotta go out and vote.
01:59:32.000 Just go do it.
01:59:34.000 Just go do it.
01:59:35.000 Let's grab one more.
01:59:36.000 Eddie F. says, Luke, can you please make a Get Hammered shirt?
01:59:41.000 That's a little bit over the target there.
01:59:45.000 That's a little bit too spicy, and I would feel bad making money off of someone getting really severely hurt, so I would rather not do that.
01:59:57.000 I appreciate the idea.
01:59:58.000 Alright everybody, if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, and share the show with your friends.
02:00:04.000 Head over to losingmymind.net and you can pre-save the new song, Genocide, Losing My Mind, and you'll notice the graphic kind of explains what the video's gonna be about, so it's gonna be really great when we drop this video on Friday and the song comes out.
02:00:17.000 I think you guys will get a kick out of it.
02:00:19.000 It's overtly political.
02:00:20.000 And we're going to have some legally distinct from guests appearing in the video.
02:00:25.000 That's going to be really, really fun.
02:00:27.000 So head over to TimCast.com, become a member.
02:00:29.000 We're going to have a members-only show coming up for you in a little bit.
02:00:32.000 And follow the show at TimCast IRL.
02:00:34.000 You can follow me at TimCast.
02:00:35.000 Lord Miles, do you want to shout anything out?
02:00:37.000 Yeah, just follow me on Twitter.
02:00:39.000 Just search Lord Miles if Twitter's still around in a few weeks.
02:00:42.000 And go and follow.
02:00:43.000 I'm going on a good adventure, so I think you guys might enjoy.
02:00:45.000 Right on.
02:00:46.000 Could you tell me privately your next adventure?
02:00:48.000 Not now, but like after the show?
02:00:50.000 Oh yeah, I'll tell you privately.
02:00:51.000 I've got some ideas.
02:00:51.000 I think you'll be a little concerned.
02:00:54.000 If you'll have me, I'll join.
02:00:56.000 Maybe.
02:00:56.000 Potentially.
02:00:57.000 You might need life insurance, man.
02:00:58.000 That's fine, I already dealt with that stuff.
02:01:00.000 The website is lukeuncensored.com.
02:01:03.000 I did a really interesting Not Safe for Work video today on that platform.
02:01:07.000 I'm doing an AMA on there very soon as well.
02:01:10.000 And I'm very happy I have it because, again, what's happening with Twitter is concerning.
02:01:14.000 But no matter what, having your own platform, having your own system, having everything in your controls is important.
02:01:19.000 And that's what I have.
02:01:20.000 And that's what I'm building on lukeuncensored.com.
02:01:22.000 See you there.
02:01:24.000 Well, everyone, I will be seeing you later.
02:01:26.000 Ian Crossland, follow me at iancrossland.net.
02:01:28.000 Pick up my book, Writing in the Dark.
02:01:29.000 If you don't have a copy yet, you can get it on Amazon and other places where books are sold.
02:01:32.000 And also, I'll be streaming on Twitch from day to day.
02:01:35.000 We'll figure out the schedule as it goes.
02:01:36.000 Follow me on Twitter to find out when I go live, like I did earlier today.
02:01:39.000 Miles, your work is really impressive.
02:01:40.000 You're really impressive, man.
02:01:41.000 It's really cool.
02:01:42.000 Thank you.
02:01:42.000 Thank you.
02:01:44.000 Ballsy stuff.
02:01:45.000 Yeah, I love it.
02:01:46.000 I love it.
02:01:46.000 I want to remind you, do not put your faith in another human to get you by in this life.
02:01:51.000 Do not wait for a superhero to come and save you.
02:01:53.000 It's not Elon, it's not me, it's not Tim, it's nobody.
02:01:56.000 It is you.
02:01:57.000 It might be Luke.
02:01:58.000 I think he's actually a Jedi.
02:02:04.000 It's not just a coincidence.
02:02:05.000 We're in a simulation.
02:02:08.000 Take care of yourself, do your best, and build your own network!
02:02:12.000 Just kidding, but do it, dude.
02:02:14.000 Spin up your own social network while we're at it.
02:02:16.000 That we can federate.
02:02:16.000 Alright.
