Kanye West is no longer a billionaire, PayPal reinstates a $2,500 fine, Elon Musk is going to buy Tesla, and the mid-terms are getting crazy out there. Plus, we talk about the Virginia school system and why local politics are more important than ever.
00:00:23.000So we don't know exactly why, but this story is apparently breaking and it just comes amid the fall of Kanye West and the fall of his empire.
00:00:33.000He's been dropped by a ton of different companies.
00:00:36.000And so with this news just coming out, I think it's interesting considering his support for Trump, his politics, what's happening with the Lex Friedman interview.
00:00:42.000So we're going to talk a bit about what's going on with Kanye West, but we do have a lot of other news.
00:00:46.000The headline, the title of this podcast changed a bit because we're hearing also that PayPal reinstated their fine of $2,500.
00:01:56.000I think we're filming it this weekend.
00:01:57.000And as a member, you're supporting our journalists.
00:02:00.000Ilad Eliyahu was on the ground in New York.
00:02:02.000He actually got to talk to Carolyn Maloney about her support for Governor Hochul in her re-election bid, so there's really interesting stuff there.
00:02:09.000So again, smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share this show with your friends, be the notification you want to see in this world because YouTube is not notifying people.
00:02:17.000YouTube has us somewhat suppressed, but if you guys take the URL to this YouTube video or this podcast or whatever and just share it everywhere, the censorship is meaningless.
00:02:26.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and a whole lot more is Ian Pryor.
00:02:36.000Well, I live in Loudoun County, Virginia, which is kind of the epicenter of all fun things, especially related to the school system.
00:02:44.000But, you know, it's probably ground zero in what happened in Virginia in 2021 with Glenn Youngkin getting elected and being the first Republican governor in 12 years.
00:02:55.000You know, I joined a lot of parents last year that was pushing back on the school system, on the culture, really, on cancel culture from local activists against parents that were speaking up at school board meetings on things like, you know, closed schools or masks or critical race theory or transgender issues.
00:03:15.000And, you know, it was impressive to see just how everybody stepped up.
00:03:19.000You know, exercise their civic duty to stand up to what their government was doing at the local level.
00:03:25.000I mean, we always see, you know, everyone's obviously, you know, focused on the midterms right now.
00:03:29.000And in presidential years, people are focused on the presidential races.
00:03:33.000But in these local political issues, everybody just assumes.
00:03:36.000You send somebody to a school board, or you send somebody to your board of supervisors, or your local Commonwealth attorney, and they just do the job because they're not political.
00:03:44.000Well, not anymore, and maybe never, but I think now, these days, we see it more and more.
00:03:50.000And it really just snowballed to November of last year, where, I mean, you had thousands of parents out at that final Glenn Youngkin rally in Loudoun County, Virginia.
00:03:59.000And, you know, while he didn't win Loudoun County, I would say that, you know, that area was integral in Virginia flipping, but also in really setting off people throughout the country.
00:04:11.000I mean, I can't tell you how many times, how many emails, calls, text messages, DMs from people saying, how do we do here what you did there?
00:04:18.000But you're actually seeing it now across the country.
00:04:20.000I mean, you're seeing You know, you look at Dearborn, right?
00:04:22.000We talked about Dearborn and, you know, the Muslim community going out to school board meetings and saying no.
00:04:27.000And, you know, this woke culture that, you know, prides itself on, we want to create diversity.
00:04:33.000Well, yeah, they have done that, but they've done it in a way that it's now opposing them, where you have all these different coalitions that are opposing their, you know, ideology.
00:04:40.000See, that was their plan the whole time.
00:04:41.000Sacrifice themselves for the greater good, right?
00:05:26.000Kanye West escorted out of Skechers' office in Los Angeles after he showed up unannounced.
00:05:34.000Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, was escorted out of the L.A.
00:05:37.000office of shoemaker Skechers, the company said.
00:05:39.000The incident comes after Adidas terminated its relationship with the fallen rapper and fashion mogul over his recent anti-Semitic and racist remarks.
00:06:01.000No, I was just wondering if it was multiple statements or are they saying that, you know, talking about Jewish media or whatever he said considered both?
00:06:09.000So they basically say he showed up unannounced and has escorted out of the building.
00:06:14.000Quote, Sketchers is not considering and has no intention of working with West.
00:06:19.000We condemn his recent divisive remarks and do not tolerate anti-Semitism or any other form of hate speech, the company said in a statement.
00:06:26.000The company would like to again stress that West showed up unannounced and uninvited to Sketchers corporate offices.
00:07:57.000Yeah, his lawyer dropped him, his talent agency dropped him, and now LA Times is writing an article talking about how Spotify and Apple Music have to pull his music, and they're arguing for more censorship, more canceling here.
00:08:08.000Yeah, LA Times has an article that's titled, Why Spotify and Apple Music Haven't Pulled Kanye West's Songs.
00:08:15.000And in that article, they make an argument saying, If we're going to counsel somebody, we're going to make sure we're going to fully counsel this person.
00:08:21.000And you're seeing someone being depersoned in real time, whether you agree with him or disagree with him.
00:08:26.000I think there is something to say about something that is happening to Kanye West right now that has happened to other people like Alex Jones and, of course, Andrew Tate as well.
00:08:36.000So Donda is Kanye's company, and Jalen Brown and Aaron Donald cut ties with Donda.
00:09:40.000I think Kanye West is clearly wrong about that.
00:09:42.000I think he's putting, needlessly putting, like, ethnicity and race in front of what's clearly corporate interests that are aligned against him.
00:09:52.000But this is exactly what conspiracy theorists and anti-semitic individuals Expected to see, and they got it!
00:10:05.000I talked with Michael Maus about it, he's Jewish, and was telling me that there's like a tenet of Judaism, and correct me if I'm wrong, anybody in the chat, I want to get this as clear as possible, but that part of the Jewish faith is that God commands people to maybe not enjoy life on earth, but take advantage of life on earth.
00:10:20.000This is basically your opportunity, and if you don't take advantage of it, then you're basically committing a sin against God.
00:10:27.000So, Jewish people believe that this is theirs to mold and craft and utilize, but then what happens is that when that gets out of control, it can be perceived as greed.
00:10:37.000And that's completely antithetical to Christianity, which is charity.
00:10:41.000Greed is a sin in the Christian faith.
00:10:45.000I think when people get greedy, that's really the problem.
00:10:48.000And when Kanye's complaining about people, he's complaining about greedy people.
00:10:51.000Whether or not they're Jewish, I don't think is relevant.
00:10:53.000But it is interesting to point out these tenets of the Jewish faith, and I'd love to have Jewish scholars in here to talk more about it.
00:11:00.000I find it interesting that they're not canceling his music.
00:11:03.000I mean, it's a different situation when, okay, you have a brand, you have sneakers or whatever it is that he's going to be associated with, but with the music, it's just him.
00:11:13.000And so, how much of the money that he's worth comes from his music?
00:11:17.000How much does he generate for iTunes, for Spotify?
00:11:21.000Obviously, it would be hugely concerning if we start saying, we're not going to platform your music.
00:11:27.000Um, because of something that you said outside of your music or even in your music.
00:11:31.000But if that's the next shoe to drop, I mean, that's going to be a problematic thing for everybody.
00:11:35.000When, when you're talking about censoring things like music on, on platforms, what happens after that?
00:11:41.000So do you guys see when, uh, remember when they banned Farrakhan?
00:11:46.000Basically what happened is after Alex Jones gets banned, people start pointing out that, uh, Farrakhan, I don't know if for everybody, people who aren't familiar, it's the, um, what's the organization called?
00:12:31.000I was on the ground in Baltimore during the riots.
00:12:34.000It was, I can't remember who the riots were for.
00:12:36.000And there were a bunch of young black kids who were very, very talking about, they were talking about Farrakhan, they were talking about Islam, Allah, and they were saying anti-Semitic things.
00:12:43.000And that was the first time I ever experienced it.
00:12:44.000I didn't know, I was like, what is this?
00:12:46.000Like, they're Islam or what's going on?
00:12:48.000And people started talking to me about, you do realize like Farrakhan's been around for a really long time.
00:13:31.000Dude, there's a ton of rappers and celebrities who believe exactly what Kanye is saying.
00:13:36.000So, I don't know how you deal with it, or I'm just pointing that out.
00:13:40.000You want to talk about banning his music, which is unrelated to his politics because he admitted to what he believes?
00:13:45.000Think about people like Snoop Dogg and all those other people who support Farrakhan.
00:13:48.000Yeah, another issue with Judaism and Islam I've been thinking about is, whereas Judaism has this tenet of like, take advantage of earth, utilize its goods, and it's gracious, Islam is like, do not be decadent.
00:14:01.000Decadence is the bane of our—if you are decadent, you are sinning against God.
00:14:05.000So whereas the Jewish faith is kind of like, I mean, opulence, maybe not the right word, but they're willing to have huge, you know, a lot of things and stuff and good, good things around you.
00:14:15.000Islam's like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you do not want to show if your brother is decadent.
00:14:51.000It's breaking down should be centralized.
00:14:53.000Yeah, we can't we need like decentralized music service like it should be a decentralized service in the commons where everybody can host their stuff and be utilized.
00:15:01.000Well, you know, you know, At the other side of this, private businesses get to choose who they want to work with.
00:15:06.000If they don't want to work with this person, they don't have to.
00:15:08.000But there also is a very coordinated, organized push to punish people for expressing ideas that they don't like.
00:15:15.000Of course, ideas always should be debated, always should be contested.
00:15:20.000I'm all for debate, but, you know, some people are saying Kanye's going way too far, it's too sensationalistic, and there's a big firestorm happening here.
00:15:28.000There's a lot of media organizations saying, cancel, cancel, cancel, cancel, and a lot of corporations saying, okay, yeah, gladly, we'll do it, and they are.
00:15:36.000So whether you think it's right or wrong, that's up to you based on your individual, you know, premise.
00:15:40.000And all this is gonna do is make him, he's gonna double down.
00:15:44.000He comes out and says he's being attacked by, you know, a particular group.
00:15:46.000Then all of a sudden everybody cancels and bans him.
00:15:49.000What do you think he's thinking right now?
00:16:28.000Crazy, but it would be a clash of different ideas.
00:16:30.000And as you mentioned, Tim, you know, a lot of people have those kind of different ideas, but at the same time, what better way to deal with it?
00:16:37.000What better way to get rid of a lot of this animosity, a lot of this hatred, than to be able to just to talk things out and be able to, of course, Pin ideas against ideas, let the best ideas win.
00:16:49.000And I think that would be something interesting.
00:16:52.000It might go haywire, it might go bad, but I think that's the consequences we face in our modern day society, and that's better than just shunning someone and saying, hey, now we're gonna make sure you double down on your beliefs instead of talking you down from the beliefs that we think are wrong.
00:17:05.000Yeah, I'm gonna have to hit up the Daily Wire crew and ask them why that's the case, because that doesn't seem right.
00:17:12.000Yeah, because The Daily Wire, they like poking the bear.
00:17:15.000And especially with Ben being Jewish and Ben being reasonable, I'd imagine Ben would actually have a conversation with Kanye.
00:17:22.000Ben debates people, he stands in front of people, so it seemed weird to me that The Daily Wire wouldn't bring him on.
00:17:28.000You'd think they'd be the first place to be like, okay, Kanye, come here and tell us why, because we're going to tell you why you're wrong.
00:17:33.000But to just be like, no, we won't have him, seems strange to me.
00:17:37.000Yeah, the point you brought up, you know, I agree, right?
00:17:39.000Businesses can make their choices on who they associate based on, you know, what they want for their business model.
00:17:45.000But marketplace of ideas, I don't remember what Supreme Court Justice said it back in the 30s or maybe it was Holmes or Brandeis, but the remedy for bad speech is good speech.
00:17:57.000And we need to prioritize that more than ever.
00:17:59.000No matter who it is, if you disagree with, again, censorship only fosters those bad ideas and makes people double down on them.
00:18:06.000And when you censor people, when you silence people, you only make sure that they go off to the far ends of the internet where those ideas are even radicalized even more than they were originally radicalized.
00:18:15.000This is why I have a lot of prospects and a lot of Not pessimism.
00:18:21.000Optimism, specifically when it comes to Elon Musk purchasing Twitter, as I think it's going to help society by and large a lot.
00:18:37.000Following PR crisis, PayPal again updates TOS, hoping you won't notice.
00:18:43.000They say as far as PR crises go, PayPal's gotten itself into quite a predicament.
00:18:47.000On October 8, the company updated its Terms of Service to include a clause enabling it to withdraw $2,500 from users' bank accounts, simply for posting anything the company deems as misinformation or offensive.
00:18:57.000Unsurprisingly, the backlash was instant and massive.
00:19:00.000Who would have guessed that the consumers don't want a company to police their speech and threaten to drain their bank accounts?
00:19:05.000Aside from the fact that the clause is a fool's errand because there's literally no way for the company to legitimately determine what is or isn't misinformation.
00:19:13.000It actually said, at their discretion.
00:19:16.000So he goes on to say, it's another case of big tech overreach.
00:19:19.000So a lot of people are pointing it out, but let me, let me do this.
00:19:21.000Here's PayPal's actual user agreement.
00:19:24.000It says, if you are a, this is current right now, I just Googled it.
00:19:27.000If you are a current seller and receive funds for transactions that violate the acceptable use policy, then in addition to being subject to the above actions, you will be liable to PayPal for the amount of PayPal's damages caused by your violations of the acceptable use policy.
00:19:41.000You acknowledge and agree that $2,500 USD per violation of the AUP is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal's actual damages, including but not limited to internal administrative costs incurred, blah blah blah.
00:21:13.000But we've got to get away from this stuff because right now, they said it right there, you agree that $2,500 is reasonable damages if you espouse discriminatory speech.
00:21:33.000I think it doesn't matter if you're a male or a female if you want to be a firefighter, but on average, based on muscle mass, bone density, and height, it's probably going to be you preferring a male.
00:21:42.000What I mean by that is, There are six-foot-tall women who are super strong.
00:22:08.000And they're saying that if you, one of the things they're saying is that if you incur damage to PayPal's brand, so if I tell people to cancel their PayPal account, I'm technically, they could say, hey, every time that that was uttered, every play that video had, if I have 10,000 views, every one of those views counts towards an instance of the violation of of denouncing our brand, like, I'm canceling my PayPal account tonight.
00:22:32.000I've been using it for 20 years, I'm done with it.
00:22:34.000And I want to stress, it does say PayPal may deduct such damages directly from any existing balance in any PayPal account you control.
00:22:42.000So let me stress, right now at PayPal.com, they say they may deduct at minimum $2,500 if you engage in a variety of activities including discriminatory speech, promotion of hate, Yeah, now who gets to decide what is discriminatory speech?
00:23:00.000Who gets to decide what is, quote, hate?
00:23:03.000Why are these rules so general, vague, and to the point where it could be interpreted in so many different ways?
00:23:09.000They do that because, again, this is akin to a social credit score.
00:23:12.000They know PayPal is one of the biggest online banking institutions on the entire internet, and right now they're saying, we can do whatever we want.
00:23:29.000And again, PayPal has been becoming more of an activist organization more and more.
00:23:33.000They work with the SPLC, a discredited organization that has been successfully sued before for defaming people, for lying about people.
00:23:42.000They actually moved out of North Carolina because North Carolina decided to have a policy where they said biological sex individuals, People have to use bathrooms based on their biological sex, so they're acting more and more like an organization that wants to, of course, play political games and push their political ideas, rather than, of course, just be a bank.
00:24:41.000Like, I don't even want to start talking about sexual toys.
00:24:45.000The other layer here is not just, all right, what are they going to punish here?
00:24:49.000Discriminatory speech, hate speech, but damage to their brand, which they're saying, well, we can't really tell you what the damage to our brand is, so we're going to put in this little liquidated damages clause for $2,500.
00:25:00.000So not only are they determining What's hate speech, what's discriminatory, but also what's damaging to their brand.
00:25:07.000Which, none of it's going to be damaging to their brand, but they put that in there as just another layer for them to enforce it and say, this is why we need to do it.
00:25:15.000These rules are damaging to their brand.
00:25:17.000It also says, Luke, you might want to earmuffs this one.
00:25:20.000It says, content that relates to transactions involving ammunition, firearms, or certain firearm parts or accessories.
00:25:30.000I mean, that right there just shows you how much of a political organization that they are, how they're just playing, again, social justice warrior politics that they're trying to push for the forefront.
00:26:25.000We default Parallel Economy, so if you want to become a member at TimCast.com, using Parallel Economy supports the company, which is Dan Bongino's company.
00:26:33.000We use Rumble infrastructure for everything, and you support us directly.
00:26:36.000I'm very excited about Parallel Economy.
00:28:01.000Let's just do exactly what they want us to do and implement the ESG social credit score system where of course we comply, we push all the woke nonsense, we push all the politicking onto the individuals and we make sure that of course we play along with the game that the globalists and other centralized bankers want us to play.
00:28:20.000I do not see PayPal on Amazon, to be honest.
00:29:38.000He was like, it's going to be funny when all the woke left flip and now demand the government intervene to stop private companies from setting their own rules.
00:30:34.000Like, just imagine how much fun that would be.
00:30:38.000Imagine you're Elon and you walk into Twitter HQ, and you get to walk through the whole building.
00:30:44.000You're a billionaire, so you can fly in a private jet to any one of your satellite offices, and you get to walk through and just look someone right in the eye and go, you.
00:31:09.000When the parents bulldoze everything out of the path of the kid, so these kids grew up with no obstacles, and they expect to be handed everything.
00:31:16.000That's why they're confused the government isn't just giving them free food.
00:31:20.000It's why they say things like, there's more empty houses than homeless people, so let's just put them in the empty houses.
00:31:25.000And then you're like, do you know what 1 plus 1 equals?
00:31:29.000You put a mentally ill person in a house.
00:31:32.000How long until the house burns down, falls apart?
00:31:37.000Who's going to cover the cost of the fire department?
00:31:38.000These people don't think these things through!
00:31:40.000And it's because their parents walk them through everything without giving them any obstacles.
00:31:44.000And participation trophies everywhere they go.
00:31:46.000One of the things Elon's talked about is not letting people remote into work as much and I worked social media and I found like that was the best part of the job was being able to work from home on my own time limit and we didn't have to be in the office together so it was like and then we actually we got an office in Brooklyn and it was just an expenditure we didn't need it we found out after a year we're like why do we even have this thing we don't need it So, I don't know.
00:32:09.000I hope that he's open to letting people work remote, but he thinks that... I think what he said is that if people aren't there to have oversight over, that they don't work properly, and that might be a good argument.
00:32:34.000So, you know, if there's somebody who's like, man, I want to work at the company, but I'd rather not be there, I'll be like, well, then you're not going to work here.
00:33:07.000What we're saying is don't go above and beyond.
00:33:09.000It's like, okay, yeah, well, no one's making you do that.
00:33:11.000Some might ask you, but if you don't want to, fine.
00:33:14.000But typically, quiet quitting was referring to people who were quitting working without saying anything to keep getting paid as long as possible until they got fired.
00:33:39.000I'm skeptical, because the man still wants to sell robots and put brain chips inside of your skull.
00:33:44.000But at the same time, he did tweet today that he's, quote, a big fan of citizen journalism.
00:33:49.000He also tweeted how citizen journalism is dismantling the establishment bias, and then went on a tirade and went as far as to even call the New York Times a, quote, chaotic actor causing problems in our society.
00:34:27.000I hope it's going to at least help mend a lot of the bigger problems in our society, because I think it can, because the larger divide and conquer agenda that has been pushed on everyone, the larger disinformation, the larger censorship efforts have been causing a net negative towards our society.
00:34:43.000You could solve all of that just by allowing people to talk freely, and with him already cheering on citizen journalism, independent journalism, trying to, of course, promote people who are trying to hold big powers accountable, highlights how this could potentially be something that could be amazing and world-changing.
00:35:01.000Yeah, I think that one of the things that'll happen is that Twitter, Parler, when Kanye buys Parler, and Mines, with Bill Altman's Mines, are going to federate and interoperate, start to interoperate, along with Rumble, Chris Pavlovsky's Rumble, which is already working with Starlink to interlink their servers and Starlink's networking capabilities to get global internet.
00:35:22.000Like, we're gonna have a planet-to-planet.
00:35:24.000We're gonna have interplanetary internet.
00:35:25.000And you have all these networks start to be able to interoperate.
00:35:27.000Jack Dorsey wants Twitter to be a protocol.
00:35:30.000Meaning that you're unbannable, it's decentralized, everybody can post, no one has control over what you say.
00:35:35.000And the only thing that can happen is if it's illegal, then the police can deal with it.
00:35:39.000If Elon Musk does implement that, we know that Jack Dorsey was talking with him behind the scenes before he decided to buy this, then there's a strong possibility Elon does move towards making it a protocol.
00:35:49.000It does then merge, in a sense, with Mines as a node, or with Rumble, Gab, Parler, TruthSocial even.
00:35:57.000And then the way it would work is, and this is the way it absolutely should be, you have a Twitter account.
00:36:34.000He's also talking about allowing end-to-end encryption when it comes to private messages.
00:36:38.000And as an independent content creator, as an independent journalist, I'm going to pretty much go all in.
00:36:44.000I'm going to invest my time, and I think this is going to also move the market in a way that I think is worth talking about.
00:36:51.000Because if you have a platform Providing free speech, providing something that all the other big tech social media platforms aren't providing, he's going to push the needle.
00:36:59.000He's going to be very competitive in the market because now Facebook, Instagram, all these other large corporations, Google, YouTube, we're going to be looking at him like, hey, we can't hide the cat in the bag anymore.
00:37:10.000Hey, you know, these ideas are still being expressed.
00:37:14.000The more we censor them, the more obvious it becomes.
00:37:17.000Because now on Twitter, we have a platform that, of course, is allowing the truth to actually get out there, allowing real conversations to get out there without an algorithm, without bannings, without censorship, without restrictions on speech.
00:37:31.000This is going to, I think, in my opinion, if this is done as Elon Musk says he wants it to be done, shift the market in a net positive when it comes to overall freedoms and speech.
00:37:40.000I just gotta throw this out there because I would be, I have to.
00:37:45.000Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, me, let's talk about Twitter's rules, censorship.
00:37:52.000It'll be the Twitter Rogan episode 2.0.
00:37:55.000I obviously, you know, I'd love to make that happen because I'm the lowest on the totem
00:38:00.000Elon, of course, the richest guy on the planet, Joe Rogan, the biggest podcast on the planet, and then the little old me.
00:38:04.000So I'll say, you know, hey, come on guys, like, let's get a show going.
00:38:08.000I'd imagine they probably care very little, but I do think it would be really epic to sit down and discuss Twitter's internal policies, plans, bias, censorship.
00:38:19.000If you guys watched when I was on Joe Rogan, this was back in like 2019 with Vijay Gowdy and Jack Dorsey, and everything I said and everything they said, give Elon Musk a month or two of actually going through the internals, then sitting back down and saying, okay Elon, which of what they said was true and which of what they said was a lie?
00:38:38.000And then have Elon just be like, oh they said this, That was a lie.
00:38:43.000And then to go through policy, procedure, philosophy, ideology, it would be incredible.
00:38:48.000But we're also going to find out what was, I think this is a big possibility, finding out how else was Twitter manipulated.
00:38:54.000We're going to find out about the bots.
00:38:55.000We're going to find out what they were doing.
00:38:56.000We're going to find out about their algorithm.
00:38:58.000We're going to see what an uncontrolled social media platform is, unless the FBI, DOJ, and U.S.
00:39:04.000intelligence agencies come to Elon Musk and kind of proverbially put the gun to him and say, hey, you're going to do what we want you to do.
00:39:10.000Look at this, Drew Hernandez says, apparently leftists are fleeing to this new Twitter alternative called Tribal Social Network.
00:39:32.000I want to piggyback off of your idea from earlier, Tim, about being able to log into your Twitter account and follow me on Mines, for instance.
00:39:38.000And I think it'll even be better than that in that you'll be able to log... Basically, your account will be your wallet.
00:39:44.000It'll be like your crypto wallet, like a MetaMask account or something like that.
00:39:48.000And you'll log into social networks with your wallet.
00:39:50.000And that will also help you bypass things like PayPal, or your bank like a banks and things like that these these weird like top-down authority figures trying to eyeball your accounts and it'll it'll it'll create kind of a parallel economy so to speak a parallel culture yeah for sure it's like the fist coming breaking out of the ground of dirt you know it's it's awesome
00:41:15.000I mean, you know, we're talking about somebody that's gonna be one of a hundred senators in the United States Senate, potentially, that said he's going to vote, you know, to break the filibuster, to end the legislative filibuster.
00:41:27.000And this is someone who cannot answer a question on his point of view for fracking and explain Were you lying then?
00:41:38.000I mean, we got a long pause, no answer, and for people to say, well, it's ableism.
00:41:43.000I mean, the same people that said, you know, when Mike Pence was debating Kamala Harris, you know, if he challenged her on something, well, then that was mansplaining.
00:41:51.000It's the same thing if you're conservative, and you actually argue your points, and they can somehow, you know, turn it into, well, we really can't argue what you said, or that argument isn't really gonna work, so we're gonna, you know, say you're mansplaining, you're an ableist, you're racist, you're insurrectionist, whatever.
00:42:10.000I mean, just pick from the cookie jar of things that are out there.
00:43:24.000So then they create new words like retarded, but then apparently those become offensive.
00:43:29.000And now there's disabled, meaning you have a disability.
00:43:33.000It just meant like you didn't have, your hand was injured, your foot was injured, your eye, your ear, because on average, a person has two eyes, two ears, two arms, two feet, two legs, et cetera.
00:44:03.000It just depends on how society's geared to function, because if you have like 27 hands, that's a form of a disability, because it'd be hard to navigate.
00:44:48.000Well, so neurodivergent is what they use for mental ailments, but the problem with that is divergent implies not normal, so you can't say that.
00:45:14.000If you're one of those people that are perpetually offended, you're going to get offended by every word that is either in the dictionary now or will be in the next, you know, millennia.
00:45:22.000My favorite was, uh, Wimixen and women.
00:45:30.000Instead of E-N, it's X-N, and they said the X means it's inclusive of all Women, and then people were like, what do you mean inclusive all women?
00:46:17.000If they don't have a boogeyman, they have no one to fight.
00:46:19.000And since, you know, there's a more demand for sexism, racism, than there actually is supply of it, and I think that's very clear, especially with this latest kind of bastardization of our language, especially when you see just how Newspeak it is, how Orwellian it is, exactly almost from 1984.
00:46:39.000But back on the Fetterman kind of topic... Did you see this real quick?
00:47:37.000And then DeFranco and Hassan both today were talking about how horrible Dr. Oz is because Dr. Oz didn't allow journalists to actually record the screen that actually projected the words on there and they weren't able to fact-check exactly what was on there and it's Dr. Oz that's responsible.
00:47:56.000They're pointing the finger at him because he denied Federman to have journalists looking at the screen to fact-check that it was accurate.
00:48:04.000That's the argument that they're making.
00:48:05.000People forget how cutthroat things are in the world sometimes.
00:48:09.000I don't know, what about playing softball for global political dominance is not a victory strategy.
00:48:32.000For Phil DeFranco to come out—I'm sorry, Phil, not just you, but for anyone to come out and be like, Fetterman actually did—it wasn't that bad, you know?
00:48:38.000There's like Slate wrote, actually, Fetterman did pretty well.
00:48:42.000The Philly Enquirer saying he did great, like, yo.
00:48:50.000Just watch it without the idea that he had a stroke.
00:48:52.000DeFranco brought up that he didn't do that well, but he still, out of that performance, came out on his show and said, I really hope Federman wins.
00:49:18.000You have to represent the state to the federal government.
00:49:21.000They are gutting and burning the system to the ground.
00:49:24.000So I do not see a scenario where we move forward as a country, when you have these psychopaths saying, you know what, I don't wanna be on the outside, and I assume this is the inside, so I'm not backing away from this.
00:49:37.000We're coming to a point where it's going to be clear as day.
00:49:41.000With all the polling, with all the projections, let's assume they're right.
00:49:48.000If Republicans do win, if, and it's a landslide, and we see more of Democrats agreeing with Republicans and Independents, these people still will not back down because they're in a circular firing squad, as Obama calls it.
00:50:03.000Phil DeFranco will never admit Federman should not be in office, and Dr. Oz is tepid, at the very least.
00:50:14.000But he would rather save Federman because he knows he's got leftist activists with their finger on the flag button who are gonna ban him on social media unless he says what they demand he say.
00:50:25.000I gotta bring it back to Jon Fetterman because, Jon, first of all, man, heal.
00:50:46.000But I also, we're voting for a senator right now, so let's put all our cards on the table, forget about the past, look at that debate as is, without knowing any prior.
00:50:55.000He has this past, she has this, he has this injury, like, Fetterman was stuttering and bumbling and vacant for much of it.
00:51:01.000I don't want a senator that's stumbling, bumbling, and vacant.
00:51:04.000And at one point, the moderator did say Oz.
00:51:07.000Question, question, question, but it was actually meant for Jon Fetterman.
00:51:09.000And there's a long pause, and Jon was like, oh, oh.
00:51:59.000Well, you know, what's interesting about that 53 number is it's bad for Democrats, obviously, in 2022, but it's awful for Democrats in 2024, because that map is very disadvantageous for Democrats in 2024.
00:52:13.000I mean, you look at places like New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Montana, Georgia, Georgia.
00:52:20.000I don't know if Georgia is up in 2024, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, all those states.
00:52:25.000They're going to lose more seats in two years.
00:52:57.000Let's get 66 Republican seats in the Senate and then just, you know, run roughshod.
00:53:03.000Just pass all the bills, ban all the garbage.
00:53:05.000And I think maybe if you go to people right now and say gas prices, that's number one.
00:53:09.000But the other thing is, while you're talking to people and you go like, gas prices are really, really hurting you, right?
00:53:16.000Let me show you this, you know, I got this thing here about gas prices and like, oops, I accidentally press play on this video of Biden supporting sex changes for children.
00:53:24.000I think those two issues are going to make people jump ship, because when CBS did their panel with the Democrat, Republican, and Independent, what did the Democrat woman say?
00:53:32.000I've got a bunch of kids, and what's happening in these schools is bad, and I don't like it.
00:53:37.000I was talking to my mother over the weekend.
00:53:38.000I went back to her house, hung out for a few days, and Becky, I'm going to put you on blast!
00:53:42.000I was like, you know, Biden grabbing young women and smelling them and like telling that one girl, wait till you're 30 before you get into a serious relationship.
00:54:09.000What if one week before the election, Alex Jones, Milo Yiannopoulos, Laura Loomer, Donald Trump, they all come back and then they're surfing on that red tsunami?
00:54:23.000I mean, these are loud voices. I mean, there's a reason they were censored. There's a reason,
00:54:27.000you know, not just right-wingers, but also people on the left. A lot of anti-establishment types were
00:54:32.000censored because they're not censored because they were wrong. They're censored because they
00:54:35.000were a threat towards the current narrative, towards the current agenda, and they needed
00:54:40.000to silence those voices in order to make sure that their agenda, their narrative could go through it
00:54:45.000without even question, without even being stopped at all.
00:54:49.000And I think this is why we had so much lunacy during the last two and three years, because no one could have challenged it.
00:54:55.000You challenged it, you got banned right away.
00:54:57.000This is, again, why I see Twitter as a net positive Possibly moving forward.
00:55:02.000Well, you know, it's interesting you talk about that focus group, right?
00:55:05.000And people saying this stuff that's going on in schools.
00:55:09.000Well, look, it's been out there for a long time now.
00:55:11.000But it's just, it could never get traction on social media.
00:55:14.000It could never get traction in the mainstream media because they didn't want to talk about it.
00:55:17.000They didn't want to offend the far left that thought this was all great.
00:55:20.000But where it all starts to come out is when you've got, you know, little Johnny with his Chromebook sitting home from school, and then mom and dad also sitting home from school working, and they're like, What?
00:55:31.000And then people start digging in, and then you start activating all these people, and you cannot un-ring that bell right now.
00:55:38.000And so that is an exact point when you have gas prices where they are, inflation where it is, you know, threat of war with Russia over Ukraine, and he's talking to, you know, a guy that's pretending to be a girl in the White House.
00:56:12.000I think Dylan Mulvaney's whole bit, and we've talked about it a couple times, is intentionally trying to insult trans people.
00:56:20.000You look at these videos and you're like, look at videos of your average trans person, that is not what Dylan Mulvaney is doing.
00:56:28.000Blair White is an example of a conservative, I think Blair's conservative, I assume, Trump-supporting, and then you look at ContraPoints, the two examples, left and right, they do not act like that.
00:56:37.000This Dylan Mulvaney goes to the White House and says extremely offensive things.
00:56:40.000Come on, like, Dylan Mulvaney made a video about how he's got a bulge and everyone was staring at it.
00:56:47.000Like, that, I'm telling you, man, this person is trying to make trans people, to insult trans people, and Dylan's probably laughing every time he puts a video out.
00:56:57.000Because conservatives are watching and saying, look how crazy they are!
00:57:01.000And the left is being like, we better protect it.
00:57:03.000It's like that teacher, you saw the high school teacher with the big fake tits?
00:57:07.000Some people are suggesting that was a troll.
00:57:13.000Oh, I mean, look, I gotta be honest, I mean, maybe society is collapsing, people are losing their minds, but I really think when you look at, there are a lot of people who are trans that are not prominent, and you might not even notice, and they've been around for a long time.
00:57:26.000Then you look at Dylan and everyone assumes that's what trans is, and I'm like, no, Dylan is just intentionally, it's a character, it's a caricature, it's a mockery, it's akin to a minstrel show, and there's nothing anyone can say to convince me otherwise.
00:57:42.000Blair White's not walking around talking about Barbie pouches.
00:58:47.000I don't care what label you slap on your shirt.
00:58:49.000Hey, I'm still a big fan of the Free Stay Project.
00:58:51.000I think they're doing incredible work, and I think a lot of them, especially with the homeschooling network down there, is doing incredible stuff that I think should be replicated and copied everywhere else.
00:59:00.000Their meetups, their community is awesome.
00:59:02.000Going strong and doing really, really incredible things.
00:59:06.000So they're not affiliated, red or blue, Republican Democrats?
00:59:08.000Well, they're in the local government.
00:59:09.000There's a lot of freestaters in the state representative local governments there that are implementing local laws, local jurisdictions, making sure that you can actually get raw milk, ice cream.
00:59:22.000That was one of the big hurdles, making sure that you could carry your firearm when you're on an ATV.
00:59:26.000And there's a lot of other legal battles, especially when it comes to taxes and tax credits, especially from homeschooling, that they did have very significant victories on by coming together And working together on those issues.
00:59:37.000What was the no-gun-on-an-ATV problem they were facing?
00:59:39.000New Hampshire had some weird law where you couldn't have a gun on a snowmobile or ATV, and they of course repealed it with work of the Free State Project in local government.
00:59:49.000See, this is what's brutal, is I pulled up 270-to-win state house elections map, only 31 states.
00:59:57.000So, Senate and representative state legislatures, it's only 31 states going Republican.
01:00:33.000So we talked to the Convention of States guys, they were on the show, and they said it's not what happens.
01:00:37.000The Convention of States allows a convention to occur where they make proposals, and then they have to vote on the changes to the Constitution.
01:01:22.000It's that subtlety that people don't, it's when you don't perceive it, you know, a little bit, like erosion, slow erosion is unnoticeable almost, but when a big, huge chunk of land breaks off, that type of erosion, everyone freaks out about.
01:01:34.000Well, that's one of the points I brought up earlier with like local issues, right?
01:01:38.000Most people are not tuned in to what's going on locally.
01:01:42.000They'll tune in to the national stuff because it's on television all the time, right?
01:01:45.000You need to turn on Fox or CNN or whatever network you want to watch and they're going to be covering the Senate.
01:01:51.000They're going to be covering the House.
01:01:52.000They're going to be covering the presidentials.
01:01:54.000But maybe you have 10% of people on the right and 10% of the people on the left in these local elections that actually care.
01:02:00.000And then they show up to the extent they do in these low-turnout local elections, and they're just guessing.
01:02:06.000They don't know anything about these people because they're not paying attention.
01:02:11.000They're busy with their day-to-day life.
01:02:13.000But that's where it all starts, right?
01:02:15.000All these people that are, you know, running for these big offices now all get their start at The school board, the county boards, all these local offices, and they get in there and they start moving on up.
01:02:26.000And if people don't pay attention to what's going on locally, that's why we're in the problems we're in now.
01:02:30.000What kind of commitment is it to be local official?
01:02:36.000Like, if you're a school board member, you get paid $20,000 a year.
01:02:39.000So, you're not doing it for the money.
01:02:40.000You may be doing it because, you know, you're an activist and you want your policies in place.
01:02:45.000Or, more likely than not, you're a political climber and this is your first step to the next step.
01:02:50.000So, right off the bat, you've got to start, you know, paying the favors that you owe and making sure that you're appeasing your base and playing politics at the local level.
01:03:07.000They do, they do like a, yeah, about a six hour public meeting.
01:03:10.000And then they have committee meetings, which are often, you know, they could be virtual, they could be in person.
01:03:16.000It is a lot of work for them to do it.
01:03:18.000So, you know, when you have people doing it, it's... I kind of break it down as to you've got the true activists, you've got the political climbers, you've got the people that are actually went there because they believe in public service, and then you got the people that believe in public service but have been so beaten down by the first two that they're just, you know, checking in and checking out.
01:03:37.000That's what local government looks like.
01:04:01.000But I do think shows like this are massively influential because you can get a lot of people to vote the way you want them to vote when 10,000 people or 100,000 people hear your voice.
01:04:08.000Although, imagine, you know, 10 years from now, Ian's governor of West Virginia.
01:04:13.000And we're like, remember when he was on the show and then he decided, you know, he got to do something and now he's the governor and constitutional carry has been enshrined at the federal level.
01:05:37.000I mean, I think you need, you know, it's federalism, right?
01:05:40.000If you have too powerful of a state legislature, you're dealing with the same issues you would have if you didn't have that check and balance at the national level.
01:05:49.000If you don't have that at the state level, there's a lot of things that get done at the state level that don't get done at the federal level.
01:05:54.000The federal government will try and get those done, but most of the consequential stuff that affects your day-to-day life happens at the state level.
01:06:01.000So if you're flipping every, you know, every which way and you don't have those checks and balances in the state government as well, your life's gonna be impacted.
01:06:09.000So we had Ammon Bundy on last week, and he was saying that if he becomes governor, he's gonna make abortion illegal, basically, and that's just a vague, you know, a generalization.
01:06:17.000Yeah, it's him setting his policy plan, and he's gonna advocate for it, and then hopefully get to sign it.
01:07:03.000Every single person who turns 18 has to go in for extended state DMT.
01:07:08.000It's like a three-day thing where they put you on a bed with the IV drip for DMT and then a screen comes out of the floor and it's Ian's face and he's like, you can do this.
01:07:28.000The resistance breaks into Ian's palace chamber and they're like, it's over, Crossland, we're putting an end to- and then he hits a button and it sprays DMT on their faces and they're like, ah!
01:07:37.000Luke, do you have aspirations to run for office?
01:08:55.000I think that, I mean, first of all, if you run for office, be really good, really good.
01:09:01.000You need to say, this is what I stand for, and I am not going to let the pressure get to me.
01:09:06.000Where you start, you know, compromising on your views, and then you start, you know, You just lose who you are while you're running for office.
01:09:18.000And I see it happen all over the place.
01:09:20.000Like, oh, well, that person said that because he was in a crowd of people that think that and doesn't want to lose that vote or she doesn't want to lose that vote.
01:09:26.000And then you just, you know, it's it's sort of a natural reaction, I think, for people.
01:09:30.000And there are other ways to sort of influence policy, to influence culture beyond just running for political office.
01:09:39.000I think you have to have that That the right characteristic, right stuff to run for office.
01:09:45.000I've never thought that I would be that person.
01:09:59.000They're lying through their teeth, they're full of crap on almost every single issue, and I don't care if you're a Democrat or Republican, there's very few people that are able to actually impress me and talk about the real legitimate issues that actually matter, instead of just giving me generalized platitudes that don't amount to jack-ish, and only amounts to them trying to get you to support them.
01:10:19.000And whenever you're a human being that puts your power, your energy, whenever you put someone else above yourself, You're committing an act that shouldn't be respected you ... shouldn't be a simp for politicians you should believe ... in yourself you should empower yourself and at the end of the ... day one person who's going to fix all your problems it's not ... going to be that politician it's going to be you when you ... decide you had enough of the bullcrap and you're going to ... make changes and decisions in your life that actually benefit ... you instead of giving up all of your power to mr. ... douchebag or mr. turd sandwich.
01:10:51.000But isn't it just so much easier just to not think about it, Lou?
01:10:57.000When you see the atrocities, when you see so many human beings being poisoned, being screwed over, being absolutely robbed of their wealth, robbed of their futures, No, it's it's not easy because the amount of hurt that politicians are putting on the American people Doesn't amount to any form of laziness or convenience that just by voting them in but I wonder if that's just part of the system the structure of the system that people have
01:11:24.000Because you're saying like every, almost every politician becomes some sort of scum, and that's an extreme way.
01:11:30.000Is that, I wonder if it's all of them, either that's a problem with humanity, which may be, but I don't, I want to think better than that, that it's a problem with the way the system's set up, that people, all of a sudden they get some votes and now they have more power than you.
01:11:42.000Maybe it should be that they have ability to alter, what were you going to say?
01:11:47.000So you've got your network shows, right?
01:11:51.000Your sort of mass consumption sitcoms, and they're on broadcast, right?
01:11:56.000And they do well, and a lot of politicians are like that.
01:11:59.000But then you have your really good shows, smart shows, that are still able to achieve success.
01:12:04.000You know, could be on HBO, could be on any of these other platforms.
01:12:08.000So you still do have that, but you have to really be able to balance, you know, popular appeal, but staying true to your ideals, right?
01:12:15.000That's what makes a, not just a good politician, but a good elected official.
01:12:20.000We do have a lot of these, you know, generic broadcast network shows that are bound on television.
01:12:25.000You see the promos for them when you're watching the NFL over and over again for 20 years.
01:12:29.000That does make up a lot of the political class.
01:12:32.000You think there are elected officials that aren't politicians?
01:12:36.000I think there are elected officials that will engage in being a politician to get to office and then actually do the job that's required of them.
01:12:46.000But being a politician and being a, you know, a candidate, I mean, you've got to make phone calls and ask people for money.
01:13:57.000That's another reason I wouldn't want to be involved.
01:13:59.000I would do it, like, via internet video, you know?
01:14:01.000But I don't even know if it violates YouTube's terms of service, but of course you could have your own social network and work off mines and things like that.
01:14:10.000Politicians should just be putting out broad-spectrum videos where they're like, I need you guys to donate today, here's why, and then just do like a 10-minute podcast, YouTube video, social media, put on all the platforms.
01:14:24.000That's way more effective than picking up the phone and calling random people.
01:14:28.000But then they use the pick-up-the-phone system to be like, well, that means I need to hire ten people, which means I need to raise this amount of money.
01:14:36.000Because you don't need money to be a YouTube star.
01:14:53.000A commercial is less effective than you making your own video that goes viral for whatever reason.
01:14:59.000So, you know, when Bloomberg was running, he put half a billion dollars or whatever into this race, and all these YouTubers started getting tons of money, and they're like, that's just... I guess when you're a really unpopular guy with really horrifying ideas, you have to pay for it.
01:15:12.000But if you're a politician, you want to run, you got good ideas, you can just do all earned press.
01:15:17.000Make YouTube videos, you don't need to spend a single dime on it.
01:17:00.000Now, you want to talk about an enemy you do not—well, I don't want to make enemies with cartels who are on our—but we've got, like, a drug—what do they call it?
01:17:08.000A narco terrorist state on our southern border?
01:17:11.000Like the Mexican government is the cartel, essentially.
01:17:15.000Or it's like the cartel is a form of government that operates.
01:17:40.000I've been reading about the Civil War and There was no— Lincoln suspends habeas corpus from D.C.
01:17:46.000up to Philly, up to Pennsylvania, basically, because Maryland was a slave state, so they're just randomly arresting people.
01:17:51.000This is why the four states in 1861 in May seceded, because Abraham Lincoln was like, I'm not gonna allow these seven states to secede, we're gonna use force.
01:18:00.000Then four other states— Tennessee, North Carolina, Arkansas, Virginia— were all like, yo, we're not gonna stand by and let you do that.
01:18:11.000When war breaks out, everything else is just words on paper.
01:18:18.000You can come out and be like, I've got a constitutional right to this, that, or otherwise, and they're gonna be like, yeah, well, we're being invaded by China or whatever, so I don't care.
01:18:27.000The United States interned Japanese people, that is certainly not constitutional.
01:18:36.000So, if it really does break down and get crazy, people don't understand how crazy it can really get.
01:18:41.000Everybody tries to base what they think is happening in this country off of what's already happening right now, what happened in the past, but you know what, man?
01:18:50.000Every single war, there's a, there's a, there's a, this technology has advanced in weapons, and so when the next war breaks out, people are taken by surprise at the weapons that are being used.
01:22:31.000He's also trying to create microchips that are going to be artificially birth control inside of human beings.
01:22:37.000That's all concerning stuff that we should be talking about, especially since we got here talking about The new kind of weapons that will be used during World War 3 because there's also a big potential hypothetically to say that this war is already going on and a lot of people don't even realize it anymore.
01:22:56.000And that right now people are dying, people are casualties of this war from circumstances and things that they don't see, that they might be participating in and consuming themselves.
01:23:05.000For sure, viruses, you can't see them.
01:23:26.000If, like, World War III is just, like, the U.S.
01:23:28.000is bombing itself and blaming Russia, and Russia's bombing itself and blaming the U.S., but that's all it is.
01:23:33.000And they have a secret deal, an arrangement, being like, hey guys, we're gonna wag the dog here, we're gonna stage something, but we're gonna work on this together so we could feed the military-industrial complex, but we're just gonna play pretend here.
01:23:45.000I think it would be funnier, in this scenario, if the U.S., there's no direct conflict, it's them attacking themselves, but We were bombed today and it must've been Russia, but it was like the CIA.
01:23:54.000It's false flag after false flag after false flag.
01:24:39.000Or, you know, you could just deny humanity energy and watch, you know, civilization collapse on itself.
01:24:44.000We could watch food prices go up so it becomes too expensive so people can't afford it.
01:24:48.000You could stop domestic energy production and exploration, just like the new prime minister, who's also a part of the World Economic Forum, a Goldman Sachs banker, just banned fracking inside of all of the United Kingdom.
01:24:58.000Also, the same individual pushing for a central bank digital currency.
01:25:03.000Which is akin to a social credit score that his family is also invested in heavily and working on of course building with the World Economic Forum This is what's this guy's name the PM of Rashi Rishi Rishi Sunak and he within he just got in with like two days ago Yep, and he's already banned fracking.
01:25:22.000Yep And they're already getting ready to ration heating oil for the winter.
01:25:30.000And this is the same person, by the way, that just talked about how the UK is going to be the first place that is going to rewire their entire financial system in order to be net zero.
01:25:44.000Oh, this is the same guy literally promising, hey, we're also going to bring in a central bank digital currency because it's going to be so convenient when the government's able to watch, track, and see every little thing you do and tax you automatically without you even having to fill out any tax forms.
01:25:58.000This is a new level of Orwellian 1984 New World Order, brave new world that we are all facing today that a lot of people weren't about saying, hey, this is coming.
01:26:13.000you know like a big uh you know grand like a grande reformatting that's yeah reformatting um reformat a new a change up a a a a gigantic new beginning a restart Right?
01:26:37.000I was studying the revolution, you know, the American Revolution, the first one, and I say, right now, because we're in it right now, it never stopped, George Washington would go to the Continental Congress, they'd all go, you know, and they'd sit there and Washington would barely ever speak, he'd just listen.
01:26:51.000And he'd be wearing his full military outfit and they're like, yo, this guy's ready to roll.
01:26:55.000Like it was before the war began, but everybody knew George was ready to go.
01:26:58.000He shows up in full military gear, and they're like, dude, calm down.
01:27:01.000Finally, when they make their decision that they're going to have to go to war with England, John Adams is like, we've decided who's going to lead the army.
01:27:07.000And John Hancock's like, he's the president of Congress.
01:28:29.000That's the question about a civil war in the United States.
01:28:32.000A lot of people on the right think that, come on, the right has guns, they have more military.
01:28:39.000But people don't understand that, you know, when I was reading about North Carolina, I was reading a bunch of historical articles from universities.
01:28:48.000North Carolina, Virginia, they were split.
01:28:51.000They didn't want to secede from the Union.
01:28:53.000The protections the Union offered was too great.
01:29:06.000If something were to happen in this country, you might be thinking like, nah, there's no way this state would leave, like there's not enough states, it wouldn't split, but there might be some states that just, look, I'll put it this way.
01:29:21.000California, Oregon, and Washington all say outright we will not abide by federal law pertaining to abortion or sex changes for kids or schools.
01:29:31.000And then Trump says they have totally cut us off, so we're sending in the army, invoking the Insurrection Act, something that we've already discussed as possible.
01:29:40.000Or let's say Antifa starts rioting and then Trump says, we're going to shut down these riots this time.
01:30:09.000I don't know, I don't know, I think red states, but if Trump, if the GOP wins, we're not going to have that.
01:30:15.000If the Republicans win, the war is effectively a non-issue for us and Ukraine's going to lose in two seconds.
01:30:21.000No World War, look, I'll put it very simply.
01:30:24.000If Trump wins and if we survive to 2024 and World War III doesn't start, I don't think it will, I hope not.
01:30:30.000If Trump wins, if Republican wins, well, I'll say this, I can't speak for the Republicans, but if Trump wins, Our involvement with Ukraine is done.
01:30:47.000Well, I mean, I don't know if you saw the story the other day where even the far left progressive caucus is saying, oh, you know, let's let's back off what we're doing now.
01:30:57.000Then, of course, you know, they got yelled at.
01:31:01.000But this is not something that, you know, the majority of conservatives support, even those on the far left.
01:31:07.000I mean, their conscience is we can't support this.
01:31:09.000I mean, this is the political class in Washington, you know, that have been there for years, that You know, going back to, you know, World War II, really, that is pushing this.
01:31:40.000Now, not everything is World War II, where you have, you know, a dictator on the march invading countries.
01:31:47.000You know, you have conflagrations like this that set off things that, once they happen, you cannot roll them back.
01:31:54.000So, hopefully, you know, after November, this thing starts to get rolled back.
01:32:00.000Because, you know, we're kind of at this brinksmanship, which we've seen, you know, throughout the Cold War, which fortunately never erupted into anything beyond these proxy wars.
01:32:11.000But, you know, hearing thought talks about, we're approaching nuclear Armageddon, or we could be looking at nuclear Armageddon, the fact that more people aren't talking about that, I mean, that's, that's, that's crazy to me.
01:32:53.000But I mean, within a day, it had unraveled.
01:32:55.000Sometimes when I see stuff like this, I'm like, is there a powerful spaceship hidden off the horizon where, you know, like, these progressives, they can't actually do anything good.
01:33:54.000B-Borp is going to be a Ron Paul, ANCAP libertarian freedom fighter that's going to progress human society so we are going to be equally and promote freedom and really be the best human beings that we could be.
01:34:18.000I want to know if it's like a lobbyist group or if it's a corporate group or if it's an intelligence agency that came to this progressive caucus and said, stop it right now.
01:34:38.000If you haven't already, would you kindly smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, become a member at TimCast.com.
01:34:43.000We're going to have a members-only show.
01:34:45.000We've got some big news up for this members-only show.
01:36:01.000Cromules says, joined the Daily Wire backstage live stream before TimCast IRL only to hear Ben Shapiro say that there is nothing morally wrong with a man copulating with a frozen chicken.
01:36:13.000Well, certainly that can't be correct.
01:37:29.000The good thing is, the people who are actually moving to Texas are actually voting Republican, which is actually helping the state shift more red.
01:37:37.000That along with the Rio Grande Valley.
01:39:04.000And even the original deviant anime version, because the manga, like, stopped, and then they made this, so there's two different Fullmetal Alchemists you can watch.
01:41:28.000You know that there's a quote it's like if you want to learn who controls you just look so you can't criticize and they claim that it was like Nietzsche or someone like that but it was actually like this white supremacist guy it's also a really dumb dumb quote because you like society doesn't tolerate criticism of a lot of weak you know it's like crippled children it's like they're not in control of the world that's that's the argument if you criticize them people would get mad at you as well But here's what I would say about Kanye.
01:41:57.000I've already talked about, if he's referring to, when he says Jewish Mafia, 10 people that he is colloquially calling the Jewish Mafia, I was like, okay.
01:42:06.000And the reason people are mad, as Lex Friedman brought up, is that it invokes these stereotypes from the past.
01:42:11.000But apparently someone mentioned that in the full Lex Friedman podcast, I didn't watch the full thing, I watched maybe half an hour of it, Kanye apparently said really awful things that they're saying.
01:42:56.000It does invoke these old stereotypes and conspiracy theorists who believe.
01:43:00.000Like, immediately the response to what he said is the people who believe that there's a Jewish cabal controlling the planet come out in droves and start saying this stuff.
01:44:25.000The Corwin Amendment was a constitutional amendment passed in 1861 by Congress, never ratified by the states, that would have banned the federal government from abolishing slavery.
01:44:34.000In the states where it existed at the time.
01:44:35.000I was actually reading about that earlier because, um, there was, I think it was New York Mag wrote about the failed amendments, and I think there was like 10,000 that have been proposed.
01:44:46.000But, like, of course people are always trying to propose amendments, and that was, you know, one of them.
01:44:51.000All right, Orange Owl says, Tim, I became a member at TimCast.com today and I'm excited for my first live members-only show.
01:44:57.000Thanks for all for you and the crew do.
01:44:59.000It's not, the members-only show isn't live, it's recorded.
01:45:01.000We end the show, we record it, we upload it, so it's video on demand for all of you, but you can comment and we're gonna be doing a contest soon for our members where you may be able to win a new car.
01:45:11.000I say may because we've talked to the lawyer about it.
01:45:13.000Because like, yeah, I won't say too much.
01:46:49.000The Daily Wire guys are not scared, you know what I mean?
01:46:52.000Well, Ben Shapiro still has a lot to answer for, especially with his promotion of something about two years ago that I think definitely needs to be answered.
01:47:01.000You know, Ben Shapiro came out furious over the VAX mandates, the policies, the new revelations that have emerged, the lawsuit in New York, so he went off on it.
01:47:12.000And that's what I said, I'm like, dude, I'm not mad if someone was trusting and got taken advantage of.
01:47:17.000But he should explain why he spread false information.
01:48:55.000Yeah, ultimately that decision's up to Tim, but I think you've mentioned that you want to do that.
01:48:58.000I have seen the prototype TimCast mobile app.
01:49:01.000And then after the mobile app comes the OTT stuff.
01:49:03.000So it looks like the mobile app may be done relatively soon.
01:49:07.000I was back in Ohio, like I said, over the weekend, and I wanted to show my parents TimCast.com, but they didn't have it on their TV, so I only had to show them the YouTube clips from Cast Castle.
01:49:39.000With great power comes great responsibility.
01:49:41.000You know, I think that's, you know, an important thing to point out that every group is susceptible, as they said, to in-group or out-group preference.
01:49:50.000The issue that when it comes to things like what Kanye West said with like Jewish Mafia or going DEFCON 3 on Jews.
01:50:41.000But I can only imagine, if you're someone like Ben Shapiro, and you took a political stance, only later do you find out they took advantage of you, he's probably going to be pissed.
01:53:57.000We had Mastriano on Carrie Lake's been on several times.
01:54:00.000I think Carrie Lake will one day be president, or at the very least, if she wanted to run, she has that A-factor, you know, X-factor, A-lister, whatever you want to call it.
01:54:27.000Like, and what I mean by that is, like, you look at VPs, you know, and it's like, but you look at Carrie Lake and it's like, yo, she could be president.
01:54:35.000I don't agree with some of her positions, but she's on it.
01:54:37.000She is absolutely smart and brilliant when it comes to her addressing the media.
01:55:08.000That would fit my personality really well.
01:55:10.000Because no one would want me to be president.
01:55:12.000Well, maybe they would, but people would be like, do not make sure that president succeeds because we do not want Crazy Crossland coming in.
01:55:32.000And he like, he can't for legal reasons, but if, you know, he just walks in, he's like, I'm here, I'm in Twitter HQ, I now, I own it, I'm taking it private, and I have this list of names, I'm going to read them off one at a time, it's 5,000 employees, and I'm gonna read every name.
01:56:14.000Think about the crazy things he's going to tweet when he's like... He's going to tweet something really silly and gross and be like, but I own Twitter so no one's going to ban me.
01:56:22.000There's going to be a period of creative genius that's going to be embarked on if everything goes as planned with Twitter.
01:57:03.000You know, we're wrapping up the show and we're like, oh, it's been fun.
01:57:06.000You know, we're gonna go grab a drink and hang out.
01:57:08.000And then as you're turning off the TimCast IRL show, You say, all right, well, you know, let's see if anybody wants to go out and grab a drink.
01:59:48.000We've had her on the show a couple times, and I'll tell you exactly why I say this.
01:59:52.000Aside from the videos, which are awesome when she smacks the media down with their BS and their lies, we've had a lot of politicians on this show.
01:59:59.000And, you know, whenever I get like a message like, oh, you know, this politician wants to come on, or that politician, I'm like, oh, here we go.
02:00:33.000Yeah, DMT, criminal justice reform, war on drugs, a lot of different stuff we got into that I thought was important that wasn't scripted, and I appreciate that.
02:00:42.000Yeah, I think it's because Carrie Lake actually has thought about these problems and these ideas, actually wants to fix them, and has real opinions on them.
02:00:49.000And a lot of politicians will hem and haw and give you a political answer because they don't know, they don't care, they just want to get elected.
02:00:55.000Well, I think the biggest difference was that she was also willing to say, I don't know.
02:02:19.000Fight for Schools, my PAC in Virginia.
02:02:22.000We're fighting the woke school boards there.
02:02:24.000Also, America First Legal is where it's my day job, aflegal.org.
02:02:28.000All these things we talk about, right?
02:02:30.000Enforcing people's rights, Second Amendment, First Amendment, going after these woke school systems for infringing on the rights of parents.
02:02:54.000But anyway, if you're a little bit plump and looking for some motivation, I can't recommend enough.
02:02:58.000You check out LukeUncensored.com, especially the video I did today talking about the hero's journey and the possibilities and the mental mind frame that you could put yourself in that I think could potentially benefit you.
