In this week's episode, we discuss the growing anti-vaccination movement in the NBA, the border crisis, and the smuggling of illegal immigrants by border patrol agents. We are joined by a couple of journalists who have been on the ground in the border and have some evidence of what's going on.
00:00:26.000We're even hearing from some other celebrities that they should be kicked off their teams, they should be barred from playing, but there is no mandate, apparently, in the NBA.
00:00:36.000I don't think we're going to see National Guard being deployed to replace NBA players who are being fired.
00:00:43.000But over in North Carolina, we have the biggest, the largest mass termination of hospital workers due to refusal to get the vaccine.
00:00:52.000175 plus workers in North Carolina hospital.
00:00:55.000And I'm just, I just don't understand.
00:00:57.000Why are medical workers such anti-vaxxers?
00:01:00.000Why are they saying now that there's a massive portion of New York medical workers who have been fired over this vaccine mandate?
00:01:07.000These are people who literally work in the hospitals.
00:01:10.000Don't you think they would be the least likely to oppose getting the vaccine?
00:01:27.000We're also going to talk about a lot of what's going on down at the border, because we have one of the weirdest stories I've seen.
00:01:33.000Texas Border Patrol uncovers a safe house of like a hundred illegal immigrants, and the subheader says from Fox News, and they weren't wearing PPE.
00:01:42.000Cause that's what we're worried about.
00:01:43.000Cause the border patrol agents come to a house and there's a hundred people jammed inside of it and they're like, they're not wearing COVID protective gear.
00:01:53.000So we are being joined by a couple of journalists who are down at the border recently, actually, with, with some evidence of what's going on there.
00:01:59.000Do you guys want to, you want to introduce yourself Jorge first?
00:02:28.000You actually brought us a bag of the bracelets that the smugglers, the human traffickers, make people wear.
00:02:35.000We'll get into all this, but you want to hold one up just so people can see what it is.
00:02:38.000For those that are listening, you can't see anything, but those on YouTube, you can see they make the smugglers make people wear these bracelets.
00:03:00.000Yeah, I took a bunch of them because they're really interesting and they say different things, so we will get into them over the course of the show.
00:03:06.000I'm really looking forward to this because this is something that needs to be discussed right now.

00:03:28.000This is like, You know, it's kind of been a shock how fast we've been growing, and so we have all of these pots going at the same time.
00:03:34.000But we're getting there, so stay tuned for that.

00:03:40.000Let's talk about some NBA, because this is really pissing off a lot of people.
00:03:45.000We got the story from the Black Wall Street Times.
00:03:49.000Access is a new civil right, they say.
00:03:51.000With no mandate, some NBA players refusing COVID vaccine ahead of season.
00:03:56.000They say, the most popular question that players have been asked has been concerning their vaccination status.
00:04:01.000Currently, there is no mandate from the league for the players to be vaccinated.
00:04:05.000League spokesman Mike Bass told ESPN, quote, a vaccine mandate for NBA players would need an
00:04:09.000agreement with the player association. The NBA has made these proposals, but the players union
00:04:13.000has rejected any vaccination requirement. Most NBA players are vaccinated, but stragglers remain.
00:04:19.000Roughly 90% of NBA players are vaccinated as training camp approaches, according to league sources, but tensions are growing between staffers who are vaccinated and players who refuse them.
00:04:30.000In some instances, staffers said they're upset the players aren't facing the same vaccine requirements as most team staff and referees.
00:04:36.000In other instances, staffers said they're concerned about the health risks of being exposed to unvaccinated players.
00:04:42.000Two of the league's biggest stars, Bradley Beal and Kyrie Irving, both said they were not vaccinated during their team's media day.
00:04:48.000And I just got to say, guys, you need to stop fighting this.
00:04:54.000Us rich people are exempt from all of this.
00:05:12.000Like, NBA players are like, we're not gonna do it.
00:05:14.000Meanwhile, the support staff are being forced to do it.
00:05:16.000Yeah, it's one of the more interesting stories and, you know, I don't see any National Guard coming in to replace Kyrie Irving that could average 25 points in 8 assists a game.
00:05:25.000But it's really interesting with the NBA because it actually first started off with, you know, for folks who don't know, like LeBron James has massive power over the league.
00:05:35.000It's almost like whatever he said kind of sways and he actually came out and like didn't want to get the vaccine.
00:05:40.000I think he just got vaccinated, but he didn't want to get the vaccine.
00:05:42.000And that kind of forced the Players Association to say, you know what, no mandate.
00:05:46.000So it's really interesting to see, and especially the star players speak out, so like a Bradley Beal, Kyrie Irving, who hold a lot of weight.
00:05:53.000That's going to be interesting to see.
00:05:54.000Andrew Wiggins, who is the shooting guard for the Warriors in Oakland, he applied for the religious exemption and got it denied.
00:06:44.000And then he looked at the media and said, I assume all you guys are vaccinated, yet you can still get it.
00:06:49.000So like I said, it's interesting right now just with the mandates and all this stuff.
00:06:54.000I'm curious of what's going to happen to Andrew Wiggins, because now the owner might be like, you know what?
00:06:57.000If you're not going to get vaccinated and I can only use you on the road, I'm going to just release you, then just pick up another guy who's willing to call into... Yeah, but he's got a contract, right?
00:07:14.000There was a video from a couple of days ago where people in Staten Island who are unvaccinated, like, stormed into a mall and were chanting USA because New York has the vaccine mandate.
00:07:24.000But you see little pockets here and there.
00:07:37.000I've covered a few of these anti-mandate protests back in California.
00:07:41.000One thing that I've noticed, at least from the protests that I've covered, is the first responder community is really against the mandate.
00:07:47.000I'm talking about nurses, police officers.
00:07:49.000Like I said, the story I think to watch out right now is the L.A.
00:07:52.000County firefighters are now going to be suing the county, and they are really stepping up and saying, we're not doing this.
00:07:57.000So I think that could be a turning point for a lot of first responders, depending on how that firefighter case goes.
00:08:03.000I'm not convinced that's going to affect the public the way Kyrie Irving would.
00:08:08.000You've got the NBA, and what happens if some owner is like, I'm not gonna use you for these games because you're refusing to get vaccinated?
00:08:16.000They've got star power on their hands.
00:08:17.000When celebrities like Nicki Minaj come out, all of a sudden their fans don't care about your tribe, they don't care about science, they don't care about whatever your rules are, they're just like, Big fan Nicki Minaj.
00:08:47.000But I gotta say, you know, when I watch some of these viral videos, I feel like regular people are gonna see this, and those vocal people in the NBA or of high status are gonna, for one, probably a lot of people will just blindly agree with them.
00:09:01.000There's probably a lot of people who are gonna be like, I'm a big fan, dude.
00:09:33.000But a particularly Democrat place has thousands of protesters.
00:09:37.000Certainly regular people are like, yo, the vaccines are great, but you can't force people to take these things, right?
00:09:42.000I've had, for the last, I think, week, when I go into Twitter, what's happening?
00:09:47.000First thing that shows up is, Biden's vaccine mandate for workers is supported by legal precedence, experts say.
00:09:51.000And that same headline and thing keeps popping up every day, like they're trying to convince me of it.
00:09:57.000So there, obviously, it kind of supports, I think it supports what you're saying, that I think that the media is forcing the narrative, or attempting to.
00:10:02.000That is such a manipulative propaganda thing, because you can argue that the legislature can put in rules for OSHA, but not Biden by decree.
00:10:12.000The problem is like when the media does this thing, they are not exactly able to convince like normal schmucks who are watching TV to be like, oh now the media said it, let's go and get the vaccine.
00:10:28.000It's more about Like private organizations like restaurants and like club owners, they're thinking that, oh, is this the mass sentiment?
00:10:37.000I went to Brooklyn literally this Saturday and I had to show my Vax card in one club and in order to get into a yacht.
00:10:44.000So they are mandating it left, right and center.
00:10:47.000And I think like the way the private organizations get their information is that they watch media and they think that, oh, this is the sentiment.
00:11:08.000Just that crossover with her and Tucker is exactly what we needed.
00:11:11.000I wish Trump had his Twitter because I just wanted to see what he would even say about Nicki Minaj.
00:11:19.000He would be like, Nicki Minaj, one of the greatest rappers of all time, everyone agrees, is standing up for the rights of the working class.
00:11:26.000But I was, yeah, I love that week because I remember just watching Tucker and he would just, he would be like crazy and naked and he would just bash the whole GOP.
00:11:33.000He'd be like, why is Nikki braver than any GOP representative?
00:11:37.000You always have like those Republicans like, oh, but she's, you know, pro-abortion.
00:12:31.000No, my favorite thing, like, the reason why I was so much on the Nikki train is like, if you could drive Joy Reid crazy on MSNBC, I am on your team.
00:12:39.000So I love watching Joy just freak out.
00:12:42.000Hassan's response to Nikki was that Tucker was a white nationalist.
00:13:03.000And then we're also seeing with, uh, with the college universities, it's like, even with the mandates, they're still seeing COVID outbreaks.
00:13:09.000Like Duke, Duke university had like a, an outbreak of like over 300, uh, kids tested positive for COVID and only eight of those kids were unvaccinated.
00:13:17.000So even you're, you're seeing it in Duke University, you're seeing a lot of these universities where like their vaccination rate is like at 99 or, you know, 98%.
00:13:24.000Like I was even reading, uh, Harvard just went to like online classes for three weeks and they're like, their vaccination rate is like at 97%.
00:13:31.000Let me, let me, let me pull this up real quick.
00:13:33.000CBS News, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar says NBA players who refuse the COVID vaccine should be disciplined.
00:13:46.000Yes, Stephen A. Smith on ESPN was coming out and saying, Oh, you need to trade Kyrie Irving.
00:13:50.000It's like, that's, that's just the kind of world we're living.
00:13:54.000It's like, you like step out of that narrative and they attack you.
00:13:58.000It's like, man, it's not even about, like I said, even the places that are, we're seeing the most vaccinated rates, there's still outbreaks.
00:14:06.000If that trend continues, what you're pointing out in the colleges, and that people keep getting these breakthrough cases after vaccination, then at what point will people say, stop mandating this if there's still going to be breakouts anyway?
00:14:37.000And a lot of people on the left are saying like, you know, if we're going to get through this and everyone has to be vaccinated, otherwise there'll be variants.
00:14:59.000Because it'll, it'll, you know, fester within certain communities and then eventually can, you know, the vaccine stops working, but we don't even do that for the flu.
00:15:24.000And then we're also seeing the push for the booster shot.
00:15:26.000So the FDA just recently came out and they didn't approve it for everyone.
00:15:29.000I think they only approve it for 65 and older.
00:15:31.000It's also interesting to see how the other countries react.
00:15:33.000So the president of Mexico came out and said, we are not vaccinating anyone under 12 years old.
00:15:38.000We're not letting big pharma play a role in this, which I was like, wow.
00:15:40.000And he's a leftist, almost as a leftist.
00:15:43.000So he came out and spoke out against it.
00:15:46.000That's what I'm interesting to see is there the Pfizer's making that push to get like five and five to twelve year olds vaccinated Which is like just I mean there we haven't seen any data that they need it.
00:15:57.000Yeah Now there's well, we won't say no risk, but it is like very very very minimal Yeah, and I guess the issue is they're concerned kids will get it and then transfer it to old people or so Yeah, but I got to say you've got There's, interestingly, two main camps in this.
00:16:15.000There's... Well, actually, at this point, I don't even think it's anti-vax.
00:16:28.000Why are they forcing everyone to do it?
00:16:30.000The big thing that they're not telling you... Joe Biden comes out and he said, you know, 98% of people got to be vaccinated to go back to normal.
00:16:35.000What they're not telling you is that a large portion of those who aren't vaccinated live in the middle of nowhere.
00:16:40.000So it's like, you can see an NBA player and ask him like, why won't you get the vaccine?
00:16:43.000And they'll say, well, I've had it before.
00:16:47.000But what they're not showing you when they say like, you know, a quarter of people, Biden's like a quarter of people haven't gotten it.
00:16:52.000It's like, yeah, you know, like Jim Bob, who lives up on the mountain, who's got no neighbors and is a homesteader, is like not going to drive into a city to risk himself during a pandemic just to get a vaccine that would reduce the risk he doesn't have because he lives in the middle of nowhere.
00:17:06.000They don't take into consideration rural living.
00:17:08.000Homesteaders, farms, people who don't go into cities, and people who are talking to their doctors and for medical reasons aren't getting it.
00:17:15.000They're just blankets saying, everyone's gotta get it!
00:17:19.000Why would someone who lives in rural Wyoming be concerned about getting sick when they don't see anybody for six months?
00:17:25.000They're probably like, I'm not even gonna see a doctor to give me the vaccine!
00:17:29.000But they include those people in all these numbers too.
00:17:31.000Yeah, and like in California, you know, LA County, which is one of the bigger counties in the United States, LA County is so big that like, it's not just like the city of LA.
00:17:39.000There's a bunch of rural communities in LA County.
00:17:41.000So it, for us, it didn't make sense to see that, you know, they would like shut down all these businesses and it affected even the rural communities, um, you know, in the middle of nowhere that like you said that they're not connected to the city, you know, it's a, it's like a one size fits all.
00:17:55.000Which has just been gentlemental then.
00:18:20.000ESPN anchor said she only got it because of the mandate, which she described as sick and scary.
00:18:24.000During an appearance on Uncut with Jay Cutler, Steele told the former NFL quarterback that she ultimately got the vaccine so she wouldn't be removed from programming.
00:18:32.000I didn't want to do it, but I work for a company that mandates it and had until September 30th to get it done or I'm out.
00:18:38.000I respect everyone's decision, I really do, but to mandate is sick.
00:18:42.000I'm not surprised it got to this point, especially with Disney.
00:18:46.000I mean, a global company like that, she added.
00:18:48.000Steele has previously drawn criticism for mocking mask mandates, responding to statistics showing that more children have been shot in Chicago than died of COVID, she wrote, but yes, let's keep masking up our children.
00:18:59.000I'll tell you this, man, if I still worked for Disney and they mandated this, I'd be like, yay, I break my contract, I am out.
00:20:12.000And then she ended up actually stepping Stepping down and I was like, wow, and um, you know, you have to feel for her because like that's her dream job, but she put her family first and she also met with her doctor.
00:20:22.000So it's like she did all the steps that you're supposed to do.
00:20:25.000You know, why should she, why should she, uh, she be punished for just, she met with her doctor and they, you know, the best decision for her and her family for, to have a second child was just to not get it this time.
00:20:34.000And then, yeah, she had, she had to step down before that September 30th deadline.
00:21:20.000Let's even say she's getting $150,000.
00:21:25.000You leaving going independent, you're not going to get that paycheck this month and you're crossing your fingers versus being like, well, this job's stable.
00:22:17.000The thing which bothers me the most is like, throughout history in the states, there have always been people who wanted other people to conform to their rules.
00:22:26.000But the counterculture has also existed, right, in the same time, and that has, like, come from, like, the arts and the hip-hop people and the stuff like that.
00:22:33.000And to see all these athletes, hip-hop players, hip-hop artists and stuff like that also conform to these government mandates, that's the scarier part.
00:22:42.000Everyone together decided to follow this one set of rules.
00:22:46.000It's like, you know, the rage against the machine, now they rage for the machine.
00:22:53.000And like, culture going on hand-to-hand with it, and like, fortunately or unfortunately, culture moves mountains.
00:23:00.000Like, whether or not, as Joe Biden's saying, it'll obviously matter more if You know, LeBron says it.
00:23:05.000And like, that's the scarier part to me.
00:23:07.000Like, all these big players are saying that you should get vaccinated and the fact that other people are not vaccinated is putting your life at risk.
00:23:14.000So you, you know, kind of sort of like look down at them.
00:23:24.000Well, actually, I think this is impacted by the culture war.
00:23:28.000You know, people thought in a crisis that America would come together.
00:23:31.000Like during the culture war and the peak and the fighting in the street, they're like, man, we need a shared enemy, like in Watchmen, the aliens, or if it's the movie, you're talking about Dr. Manhattan.
00:23:39.000And then everyone's like, that's the enemy.
00:23:51.000We had Dr. Robert Murphy on, he's an economist, talking about how the economy is not good, yet for some reason, and then I point out, Democrats think it's good.
00:26:08.000Like somehow gators like a right-wing thing or something.
00:26:11.000Oh, yeah, you know, you know, I'll put it this way I went to the bank today and there was this dude and he's like there's a big plastic barrier at the bank and the guys wearing the mask and I'm just like The people working are all in bubble bubble ville literal and everyone else is not Every other person in the building was not masked or doing anything and I'm just like this is weird.
00:26:47.000And then they said, you know, okay, we're gonna do masks.
00:26:49.000You know, and then it was like, ah, it's no big deal.
00:26:51.000If you want to go to the store, you put the mask on, you take it off when you walk out.
00:26:53.000But now they're like hardcore, while everyone's working, when you're going, when you're outside, in between sips, getting crazier.
00:26:59.000And then people were saying at the time, they were like, if they mandate this, it's only a matter of time before they mandate vaccines.
00:27:04.000People were like, no, that's never gonna happen.
00:27:07.000Then they said, if you want to take the mask off, just get your vaccine, you don't gotta wear the mask anymore.
00:27:13.000Then everyone had to wear the mask again.
00:27:14.000We literally went from, hey everybody, get the vaccine and we're back to normal, to me going to the bank and seeing a guy behind a big plastic barrier with a face mask on when everyone there is vaccinated, and I'm just like, there is no point where I would believe this stops.
00:27:29.000Like, we had the Moderna CEO, I guess, said, maybe next year.
00:27:41.000Yeah, CNN has that one like doctor correspondent person and she's always like, oh, it's not your, it's not in your, it's not in your like constitution on your rights to like fly and stuff.
00:27:52.000So she's, you know, she's making the argument that you need the, you need the vaccine to fly.
00:27:56.000But the funny thing is just seeing the, the, the experts continue to flip flop before the pandemic.
00:28:01.000There's those interviews of Fauci coming on and saying like, oh, you don't even need the mask.
00:28:05.000And then he's like, you know, after you get vaccinated, you don't need it to wear outside.
00:28:24.000You know what gets me is that I don't consider the pharmaceutical industry part of the medical industry.
00:28:31.000I think of it as a for-profit business that makes, you could call it medicine, I mean it's definitely medicine what they're making, but doctors Decentralized doctors is what we built our modern system on.
00:28:46.000It just blows my mind that a pharmaceutical company could be commanding this at such speed.
00:28:52.000They're going to come for the doctor soon because you could just see it.
00:28:56.000For instance, that doctor that spoke to that college football reporter for ESPN, I'm pretty sure down the line they're going to come after him because we even saw it in California.
00:29:07.000A lot of the parents were protesting this new bill where they were going to limit the religious exemptions on the vaccines for kids and they hammered on the doctors.
00:29:16.000So before that, the doctors didn't have a limit on the religious exemptions they could give for children on the vaccines.
00:29:22.000Then the state came in and said, you're only allowed to do five per year.
00:29:26.000And I think that's what, little by little, they're going to start moving on to doctors and basically kind of force them to say, just tell everyone you have to get it.
00:29:33.000Well, they're already moving on nurses.
00:30:50.000Is it really just like, I believe the vaccine is safe, but you can't make me do it?
00:30:55.000I mean, I interviewed some of the nurses that attended some of these anti-mandate protests, and from what I got was, hey, we were on the frontlines of COVID, the majority of the nurses got it, already have the antibodies, they don't see a reason for it.
00:31:07.000So it's just interesting to see the We're all in this together, and you're the frontline heroes, and to now they're making it a scapegoat.
00:31:14.000Not only that, the fact that they are part of this quote-unquote system, like the medical system, and like the fact that they don't have faith in this vaccine, which is supposed to be the be-all end-all, that's eye-opening.
00:31:24.000And the second thing about it is like, we all remember the time when like the culture and the media together were like not just the heroes, frontline workers, which is true by the way, and now they are like, you know, kind of like turning on them once some of them decide to fall out of line.
00:31:39.000Yeah, I mean, I think situations like this are gonna wake up more nurses.
00:31:42.000And I mean, can you I mean, just imagine that, you know, they've been going a whole year telling them that they're the frontline heroes, we're all in this together, then a couple months later, just, you know, gonna fire them and leave them on the street, all these working, all those 170 people are working class.
00:31:55.000Yeah, people would say, yeah, we're just gonna leave them off on the street.
00:31:58.000Can I just clarify, you said they're gonna slap N95 masks on the healthcare workers?
00:32:49.000The confusion surrounding COVID spilled over into the country's college system this month.
00:32:54.000Penn State University suspended 117 students after the co-eds missed their mandatory COVID tests.
00:33:00.000Students at University Park who are subject to required weekly COVID-19 testing and who have missed at least three weeks of testing have been notified by Penn State they are out of compliance with the university's health and safety policies and have been placed on interim suspension through the Office of Student Council.
00:33:15.000To date, 117 students at University Park have been placed on interim suspension for their failure to comply to properly comply with Penn State's weekly COVID-19 testing requirement.
00:33:25.000Those students are based No, but think about it.
00:33:28.000They're like either you get vaccinated or you do weekly tests.
00:33:31.000Then people are like, okay, so they get vaccinated.
00:33:32.000Then ASU and other colleges are like, no, you gotta do the weekly tests anyway.
00:33:36.000In some colleges, what they're doing is on the weekly test for the students who are unvaccinated, they're making the students pay for it every single week.
00:33:43.000So they're like, okay, you know, we're not going to force you, but we're going to, you know, we're going to hit you financially every single week.
00:33:48.000What happens if they, like, decide to, like, just, like, not take these tests anyway?
00:33:52.000Do they get, like, forced out of college?
00:34:30.000There's a lot of people, I'm not speaking for families, I understand families have bigger issues, but if you're going to college, yo, there's a million and one ways to survive in this world and make a living.
00:34:47.000For all the people that are like, I haven't done any, I don't care what the government mandates I do, I'll do it anyway, it's no big deal for me.
00:34:52.000Well, they're there, they're not violating any of their personal tenets.
00:34:55.000They're gonna go to college, they're gonna get a job, and they're happy with it.
00:34:58.000But if you're someone who's gonna come out and be like, I oppose this!
00:35:03.000But I'd rather have the degree than I don't believe you that you actually oppose it.
00:35:06.000Maybe it's just a mild inconvenience for you or you're just virtue signaling.
00:35:10.000If you really cared and said, I oppose it, I ain't going anywhere near it.
00:35:13.000Yo, this is your body or your child's body.
00:35:16.000That's the craziest thing to me that people are like, like Sage Steel can be like, this is sick and this is scary.
00:35:22.000But I don't mind if someone injects me with something.
00:35:24.000I'm like, then do you really feel that way?
00:35:26.000Or like, what's the point of what you're saying?
00:35:27.000If you really felt that way, you just be like, I ain't going to do it.
00:35:29.000Yeah, that's how I'm already in that boat.
00:35:31.000Like, if they do the mandatory vaccine for the flights, for the airplanes, I'm about to jump on that horse, man.
00:35:38.000It's 1800 style and take it back to Wild Wild West.
00:35:57.000So, you know, I know some people, friends of my friends, particularly wealthy, they hop on a private plane, all they gotta do is say, like, this is so-and-so and they're flying in, they're flying to a European airport, nobody checks them.
00:36:09.000They get special access, they land, and nobody cares.
00:36:57.000Nancy Pelosi had a dinner in California with some politicians and some lobbyists and all the workers are Hispanic and they're wearing the mask attending to them.
00:37:05.000And they're just these rich liberals like, oh, yes.
00:37:19.000I'll tell you, I've been to a bunch of events for like, you know, like celebrity events and like, you know, expensive dinners.
00:37:25.000And it always was really weird to me when it's like, All of these people are standing around and they're like, you know, eating and drinking and then the servant staff comes out and they're like serving you food.
00:37:35.000And I'm just thinking to myself, like, I was at a Google event once, super VIP, like high-profile YouTuber thing, like several years ago, maybe like six years ago.
00:37:44.000And I'm like, I wonder what these people are thinking.
00:37:46.000You know, like, these waitstaff that are there, wearing these weird little uniforms, carrying you food, and just walking around while all of the elites and, you know, privileged, you know, higher-ups are laughing and partying and you're there serving these millionaires.
00:38:39.000Just do it in New York, and if you're a performer, you're exempt from the mandate, right?
00:38:44.000So I could put on an event and, as the performer, be totally exempt from having to do this, and then I would put the rules in place for all of the staff, all the people who live in New York.
00:39:00.000Don't look any of my guests in the eyes, you plague rat.
00:39:03.000And then, you know, it'd be really funny because then we'll get like a bunch of performers to all just like be overtly snooty with their pinkies out in champagne, pointing and laughing and being like, look at the stupid pores!
00:40:24.000When I leave, I'm gonna be getting on a private plane where I don't gotta follow any mandates or any mask or anything because that's what it means to be rich.
00:40:30.000Not like you, you poor little plague rat with your garbage establishment.
00:40:33.000Follow the rules for the edict of the mayor.
00:41:22.000They're telling you that if you don't make as much money as AOC, if you don't have as many Twitter followers as some of those people, you deserve to wear a mask.
00:41:28.000And they don't have to because they're just better than you.
00:41:30.000But no one gets it through their head.
00:42:33.000And then you just belittle them for an hour and at the end be real nice and shake hands when you're done and be like, oh, it was all an act.
00:43:29.000And I'm like, what, what you're really saying is with all due respect, the comfort of your apartment, the job you have in New York is more valuable to you.
00:44:07.000I guess the cities are almost entirely safe over free.
00:44:10.000Yeah, I was pretty shocked because in the beginning of the year, I was spending some time in California just interviewing, you know, parents who are having struggles with their children with the mental health.
00:44:20.000And kind of what you were saying too, Tim, is like when I would speak to those parents, they were like, hey, my kid's mental health is so important to me.
00:44:26.000Like, I'm literally selling my house now.
00:45:11.000Whatever you choose, there's a place for it, right?
00:45:16.000There's a writer, his name is Alec McMillis, and he actually did a great article where he compared the state of Texas and New Mexico, and he looked at the kids who played football.
00:45:26.000So in Texas, they were wide open playing football.
00:45:28.000In New Mexico, they were completely shut down, and the suicide rates of those kids skyrocketed.
00:45:34.000And he said, this is just comparing just those two states, and seeing the amount of kids in New Mexico that ended up killing themselves.
00:45:42.000You know during the lockdowns and he really did a great piece of just analyzing both kids on each side and I'm talking about kids that were like you know you could be living in New Mexico like bordering Texas and you were completely shut down yet like 12 miles away from you they're playing football on Friday nights they have that normal life and he just kind of did a comparison and it was something I've never seen before I think in Las Vegas they had a Clark County they had so much they had so many suicides from the students that the like the superintendent came out said we have to reopen immediately it's an emergency And, you know, we need to bring those conversations back and saying, you know, the mental health impact on these kids is like, it's like everything.
00:46:17.000It was like a literal single dimension analysis.
00:46:20.000Like, hey, this is life saved versus life's not saved.
00:46:35.000If you're a single-income family, none of those factors matter.
00:46:40.000The only factors matter is whether or not that total number of lives saved versus lives not saved.
00:46:45.000That's not a way you run things, let alone make policies based on it.
00:46:49.000Yeah I think and I saw there was another great reporter Lucas Thomas and he put out like the stat of like in the military it was like military members that died of COVID-19 it was like very low it was like 20-30 and it was like military members in that same period that died on suicide it was like 500-600 and just making those comparisons kind of like what probably Steele was doing was the comparison with the Chicago kids and the COVID it was yeah I mean like And they don't talk about obesity either.
00:47:15.000Oh yeah, that's what I was listening to.
00:47:17.00030.2% of hospitalizations are obese-related.
00:47:22.000Yeah, it's funny because you could watch the CNN and they'll be like, Oh, we're all about health and get vaccinated and their commercials are like shoving pain pills down your throat and all these things.
00:47:31.000It's like, eat sugar, now take this high blood pressure medicine to counteract the negative effects.
00:47:36.000Yeah, it'll be a commercial like, take this pain pill.
00:47:38.000Then like the next commercial would be like, did you take that pain pill and you are getting these side effects?
00:49:22.000Is that because Coca-Cola got in there?
00:49:26.000In Chile, 20 years ago, they were like super healthy and now they're obese.
00:49:31.000They should have mandated every American to watch the Arnold documentary Iron Pump and Go get motivated and go hit Venice Beach or something.
00:50:08.000CBP said none of the migrants had been wearing PPE.
00:50:11.000Agents provided them PPE and they were medically screened before being processed.
00:50:15.000Yeah, you'd think this was a Babylon B. CBP has not said one of the migrants tested positive for COVID-19.
00:50:20.000So, the story here should be that they found a hundred illegal immigrants in stash houses, but for some reason it's turned into like PPE, I guess.
00:50:30.000When you drive a narrative so hard, you got people distracted.
00:50:34.000I mean, look, that Gabby Petito thing, when I was out, I know, just, I don't even care.
00:50:38.000I was talking to this guy earlier, and I was like, well, we're doing a new show, it's like mysteries, true crime, paranormal, and he was like, oh, so Gabby Petito, and I was like, never.
00:50:53.000There are probably 300 missing women right now with tons of news stories.
00:50:59.000Secondly, we know that she's not alive.
00:51:03.000And that means the missing women who are alive could use some news coverage so perhaps we can find her or them while they're still alive.
00:51:10.000Also, this guy involved in the story, apparently there's evidence there was, you know, cross domestic dispute stuff.
00:51:16.000And I'm like, okay, look, by all means, report the story like you'd report any other story.
00:51:20.000But this obsession with it, that's like people just started pushing all these stories nonstop about what's going on with this one guy.
00:51:28.000And I'm like, there's probably one of these women, serial killer, hitchhiker, murderer, kidnapper.
00:51:35.000This is a guy who was in a domestic dispute where apparently in one video she was admitted to hitting him, and then he hit her, and then who knows what happened.
00:51:47.000I think my favorite part about that, Tim, is seeing all the liberal media came out and was like, oh, this is a missing white woman syndrome.
00:51:54.000And they're like, we have every month or every day 300 indigenous women go missing, and they don't get the attention.
00:52:00.000I'm like, you're the mainstream media.
00:52:52.000That's why I'm saying this is a stupid story, because she had some Instagram followers, and the media chose to push it, and then everyone else, having nothing better to do, were like, I guess I'll talk about it too.
00:53:03.000One thing they had better do was take the spotlight off of the Afghanistan surrender.
00:53:34.000And then the media was like, we'll roll with this story.
00:53:36.000And it was, it was meaningless and nonsensical.
00:53:38.000So we got a real story that I want to deviate from where we've got stash houses full of illegal immigrants.
00:53:43.000And so I'm like, I'm gonna talk about that.
00:53:44.000I don't, I don't, I'm not going to talk about one missing person when there could literally, I could, I could talk about other missing people.
00:53:49.000How about all the people being smuggled by human traffickers?
00:54:51.000Even last night, Tim, I was in Roma, Texas, and we were documenting the human smugglers bringing in these Nicaraguan migrants, and there was one man, you could tell, he had a little boy with him, you could tell that he wasn't the dad.
00:55:18.000All the other humans smuggling the trafficking, like I said, July and August is the first
00:55:21.000time in board patrol history that back to back month over 200 apprehensions.
00:55:25.000I mean, you can only imagine all the kids.
00:55:27.000And I said, we witnessed it last night.
00:55:28.000There was this man just grabbing this kid almost like manhandling him and I'm like Yo, I mean look what's going on in Border Patrol is like, you know, we know we know what's going on there That's not that's not the dad and that's happening every single day and when we're down there documenting the human smuggling one thing that I always come to mind it's like This is just a little part of a border that we're able to see.
00:55:47.000Could you imagine the rest of it in Arizona to New Mexico and Texas?
00:56:08.000Like, we actually have a humanitarian crisis at our border.
00:56:11.000I don't know if the rest of America just, you know, just because it's the United States, you know, when people think humanitarian crisis, they think, oh, they think Yemen or the Middle East.
00:56:18.000But we literally have one here at the southern border and it's happening every single day.
00:56:21.000It's happening right now while we're speaking.
00:56:23.000To some extent like people are like desensitized to it like since like the drum was being beaten since like 20 whatever 2017 like the first like Trump puts kids in cages that was the first time when people were like oh there's an actual crisis at the border and then from there was like today it's like got dropped. It's like a different group of people back
00:56:43.000then it was Mexico now it's like what Haitians.
00:56:44.000And I was speaking to a border patrol agent in these border facilities right there in these
00:56:49.000rooms that they call pods and these pods they're only meant for like eight migrants at a time.
00:56:54.000Border patrol agent was telling me there's like 400 people in these eight person pods each stacked
00:56:59.000on against each other. How many? Like 400 in each room where they're only meant for eight like he
00:57:03.000said there are people literally sleeping on top of each other like he was texting me all this
00:57:06.000all this information he's like hey with these Haitians it's even worse and that a lot of those
00:57:11.000Haitian males they came with young like young children and he's like we're trying to break
00:57:15.000them up you know from the the real fathers or not but they're like we there's so many migrants we
00:57:20.000there's just not enough that we could do it.
00:57:22.000And even NBC News put out a report last month that those migrants are being sexually assaulted in those facilities.
00:57:29.000The New York Times put out a report last month that one out of every three migrant children released into the United States, they lose track of.
00:57:37.000Biden was smuggling kids across the United States.
00:57:55.000If you want to remember, I want to remember this.
00:58:01.000This is just like the reason why I kind of collect them and kind of bring them is just to kind of show the kind of American audience like this is happening in real time and they say you know on these braces they say entregas which means delivered and they actually treat these migrants like almost like an Amazon product like a shipment.
00:58:16.000So two things either happen either the migrants have already paid so they'll be you know they'll cross and you know they'll be released into the United States or two is if they didn't pay They're full price then they'll be essentially become
00:58:27.000indentured servants and slaves here in the United States Yeah, then you can see like the little kids always have
00:58:33.000these bracelets on their ankles so they can't like easily come off
00:58:36.000So it's just it's it's it's crazy to see you see it in in in person and that it's like it's literally happening in
00:58:42.000The United States and one Border Patrol source told me that the cartels are making up to 14 million dollars a day
00:58:47.000Just off human smuggling not even counting It's the cartel like it's yeah, well the cartels are
00:58:54.000migrants have are Well, the cartels are really smart.
00:58:58.000When they get connected with these migrants, these huge caravans, the majority of the Central Americans, they already have family in the States.
00:59:05.000So what the cartels do is they get connected with the family in the States and they make them pay the $5,000, $6,000, $7,000 for that fee.
00:59:22.000So they send their money back to the people.
00:59:24.000Yeah, so it's like I was interviewing a couple Salvadorian families that like they had to pay a coyote like $7,000 to get like their cousins here to the border.
00:59:59.000It's just like two hippie dudes in the middle of nowhere, listening to reggae.
01:00:02.000But what's happening is that these cartels found out that in California, it's so rural these deserts they start up illegal marijuana
01:00:07.000operations and then they'll smuggle the the migrants from south texas and force them to work those
01:00:12.000marijuana grows and they'll arm them because out there they're having literally cartel battles
01:00:16.000between other cartels and other migrant groups. Me and Sonny got to um we got to be embedded with
01:00:21.000San Bernardino county um their marijuana enforcement team when they when they went to raid
01:00:26.000yeah they went to to raid a marijuana Monogrow that was operated by the Chinese mafia.
01:00:31.000And when we got there, the people who were working that grow were Chinese nationals that were smuggled into the southern border, undocumented.
01:00:40.000And they were crying when they got arrested.
01:00:41.000I mean, these are people who are literally working off a debt.
01:00:44.000That's their way of paying back to the cartel members by putting their hours in these marijuana grows.
01:00:48.000And, but the problem is, like, since the cartel knows, like, they are, like, kind of the kingpins, so, like, they are not involved in the ground-to-ground.
01:00:54.000So anytime raids happen, the people who get arrested are these undocumented immigrants.
01:01:30.000Yeah, so when we were out there, we discovered that there's an Armenian crime organization, the Chinese Mafia, and Mexican cartels are all fighting in Southern California for these large desert properties.
01:01:38.000So, when I was out and, you know, I was covering the border early with the crisis, I met Congressman Mike Garcia, who represents District 25 in California.
01:01:47.000So, for those who don't know, District 25 is a purple district, meaning it could swing Democrat, it could swing Republican.
01:01:52.000It was the district that Katie Hill had.
01:01:55.000She got caught with 3-7 of her staffers.
01:01:58.000But what happened was is that Mike Garcia won in that special election by less than 500 votes.
01:02:03.000And then a year later into him serving for Congress, he has now this cartel issue.
01:02:08.000So when I met Congressman Mike Garcia, I was like, hey Congressman, you're the only representative from California in South Texas.
01:02:30.000I'm like, you know, we need to do a full investigation, find out what's going on.
01:02:33.000So we went deep dive and went into the cartels, the human smuggling.
01:02:39.000We even got a little spy drone that we would fly over the grow ops.
01:02:43.000And you know there's just so much also layers to this and what kind of really opened up the floodgates was that in California they passed Prop 64 which legalized cannabis statewide but it downgraded illegal cultivation from a felony to a misdemeanor and now the cartels kind of opened up this this black market business and are just dominating and then what helps them out in LA County is they have a very progressive DA George Cascone who I mean doesn't even doesn't charge anyone at all And it's just, it's kind of crazy.
01:03:11.000And this is all resulting from the southern border.
01:03:15.000Well, so what's up with these Chinese cartels?
01:03:47.000There was like huge huge huge marijuana plants getting confiscated and then we saw like four people like handcuffs on sitting outside waiting to be like put into the car and then we just peeked in and they were like clearly not Hispanic and then we were like what are the Chinese people doing here and they were like oh even they are smuggled through the Mexican borders to through the southern border and like that's the gateway.
01:04:08.000Yeah, Ed Calderon was on the show last week and he said it's like an open joke around the world that anyone can get into the U.S.
01:04:17.000And I think when these cartels or these human smuggling groups look at what happened with the Haitians, we're giving them a better argument because all they can say is, hey, you just go up to the U.S., you claim you're a family unit, we will push you in a caravan.
01:04:31.000They can't handle it, so they're just literally gonna process you really quick and release you into the United States.
01:04:35.000And we even did interviews, Tim, with these Haitians outside the airport.
01:04:39.000And I was like, hey, were you tested for COVID-19 before being released into the public?
01:06:33.000So if they can pay someone 14 bucks an hour, an American would have to get paid more because of taxes on both ends, the employment tax as well as the person's income tax.
01:06:42.000So when people say things like, well, they're doing the jobs Americans wouldn't wanna do, I'm pretty sure if you went to an American and said, you know, $15 an hour, $14 an hour, you know, a lot of people would be like, yes, please.
01:06:53.000Because right now they have to fight for $15 in New York.
01:07:00.000Around the same time I'm hearing that illegal immigrants, undocumented immigrants, are getting $14 an hour to pick fruit in the fields, Americans are fighting for a minimum wage at that level because they're not making that much at McDonald's or whatever.
01:07:11.000So basically they look at it this way.
01:07:14.000You know, we're going to pay $14 an hour to this person, and we're going to save 7.5% on employment tax.
01:07:21.000They're going to save 7.5% on their end.
01:07:25.000We save a little bit, but we're still paying comparable to what an American would get.
01:07:29.000So yeah, Americans would love to have that job.
01:07:31.000I, when I was in LA, I was working at a restaurant that had a lot of illegal immigrants working there and they were the cool people, but illegally in the country.
01:07:39.000And there was this like building on the street that had all these like apartments in it where they stayed.
01:07:44.000And it was like for illegal immigrants and it was super cheap rent and I wanted it.
01:07:48.000It was super nice, but compared to my place.
01:07:51.000But so yeah, but this concept to like it was, you know, years ago, like even Bernie Sanders would come on and said that he didn't support open borders because of the how it impacted American wages.
01:08:02.000So even, you know, he had a, you know, he got pushed by the by the progressive group, but even even he saw and I think just You know we got to take out the politics and just say this is an American problem that we're seeing and right now the people who are suffering the most and being taken advantage of are these like legit family units or these innocent you know people that are living in these countries that are getting sold this dream of like hey you just come to the US you get temporary protected status that the time is to come now the Biden administration put that signal I remember during that campaign
01:08:30.000Kamala Harris had that famous quote that went viral.
01:08:32.000It was like, you know, if you come here and illegally, we're not going to deport you.
01:08:36.000We're going to be the more humane organization.
01:09:31.000Yeah, and then they get processed and they got released in the United States all in under like a week just because the Haitians under that bridge was looking bad optics for the Biden administration.
01:09:39.000They were like, hey, just hurry up, speed it up, we don't even care if you test them or not, just get them, get them, get them out of here.
01:09:44.000And it's like, the thing which also bothers me, and this is like a devil's advocate argument, is just like, Haiti is actually a messed up country.
01:09:51.000Like there's like so many things wrong with Haiti, especially with the president getting murdered and like earthquakes and stuff like that.
01:09:56.000So there may be some people with actual asylum claims there.
01:10:00.000So, but when you overload the system and you have been doing that for like five, six years, maybe those people like, you know, who are supposed to get asylum in an ideal world are like lost in the dust.
01:11:16.000Yeah, there's no border Yeah, I was in the I don't know if you guys saw the video on Twitter But I was in the water when they were transporting supplies and I would I asked the Haitians the Mexicans said hey How come you're standing here not going over there?
01:11:25.000They're like we were only eating like one time a day over there So it's like I'd rather be on the Mexican side But now the Mexican authorities went to the Ciudad Acuña.
01:11:31.000It was like a makeshift, you know, Haitian camp and they made those Haitians move.
01:11:36.000So we're getting reports right now that there's thousands of Haitians going to Reynosa, Mexico, which that means the direct town across from it is McAllen, Texas.
01:11:43.000One of the hardest hit sections in Texas is that RGV area.
01:11:47.000You were saying earlier, I think, that Haitians that had moved to Haiti, or that had moved to Chile, were living in Chile for a long time.
01:11:57.000Now they come up here and they get deported from the U.S., but they get deported to Haiti.
01:11:59.000Well, essentially what's happening is all these Haitians were living in Chile, had already had Chilean IDs, refugee status, and things like that.
01:12:06.000Then when we made the transition from the Trump to the Biden administration, the smugglers told them, your time is now if you want to make a run to the states.
01:12:14.000So we had thousands of Haitians come up, but they got stuck in Tapachula, Mexico.
01:12:18.000So that's the border town in South Mexico.
01:12:21.000The government there actually didn't let the Haitians travel without proper documents.
01:12:24.000The only thing is, is that the government never actually processed documents.
01:12:27.000So what happened was, is you had thousands of Haitians living in Tapachula, waiting for something to happen, like sleeping on the streets, while thousands more kept coming.
01:12:34.000So, so many came on the week of September 12th, which is actually a Mexican holiday called El Grito.
01:12:39.000The local government gave them a three-day pass to travel, and they ended up, the human smugglers, everyone, they moved them up to Sudacoña.
01:12:46.000Now, Sudacoña is one of the few border towns that's actually not, like, controlled by a cartel smuggling group.
01:12:52.000So, meaning, That's why in those videos, you're able to see the Haitians walk that river back and forth, bring supplies, because they didn't have to pay.
01:12:58.000If they did, once they crossed that one time, it's done.
01:13:01.000And that's why when we're with the Haitians, you don't find the wristbands at all.
01:13:03.000Well, look, tell us about, pull out the wristbands, and let's actually go through it this time, and just tell us about what they are, what they mean.
01:13:09.000So, Jorge's got a bunch of these wristbands.
01:13:18.000Yeah, so these are the, so this is what kind of our reporting has showed is that the Central Americans have to pay a human smuggling group, a cartel group, to cross the Rio Grande River.
01:13:29.000And the different color wristbands means there's different human smuggling groups.
01:13:32.000So here we have red ones, we have some black ones, and we have some purple ones.
01:13:36.000The majority of these ones say entregas, which means delivered.
01:13:39.000That means the product has already been delivered.
01:13:41.000So either if they haven't paid their full payment, then they become indentured servants on our side, but they also have to pay for the kids.
01:13:48.000Yeah, these are it's insane to see it in person because I mean literally like pull it straight so people can read what it says.
01:13:54.000Yeah, I mean like like literally literally last night guys.
01:13:56.000We were interviewing migrants coming from Nicaragua.
01:13:58.000They're human smuggler right in front of us.
01:14:00.000It's up on Twitter and we got to collect these from the mic.
01:14:29.000And it's just it's crazy how they treat these people.
01:14:31.000And like I said last night, there was a moment where one of the males from Nicaragua had his little boy and you could just tell he was not the father.
01:14:38.000I mean, he was manhandling this kid like a product.
01:14:40.000And when we had the cameras filming him, he was frantic, trying to hide behind a National Guardsman.
01:14:46.000And the crazy thing too, Tim, is being there in person is... So, you know, on the Mexican side, we're witnessing the raft come with the kids.
01:14:52.000I mean, we're talking about babies in these boats that could drown.
01:14:55.000I mean, it's like one of the saddest things when they get dropped off on the American side and seeing that struggle.
01:15:02.000On the American side, there's a National Guard with flashlights directing them to come here.
01:15:07.000So then they'll literally drop him off right in front of the National Guard.
01:15:10.000Sometimes the National Guard goes in and assists them.
01:15:12.000And then so we ask them like, you know, how come you guys don't pursue the human smugglers?
01:15:15.000According to them, they say they don't arrest the human smugglers because their worry is that when they go to arrest them that they'll flip over the raft.
01:15:22.000So then the kids would drown and all the attention goes to the kids.
01:15:52.000A lot of the problems that Sweden's facing has to do with 20 years ago.
01:15:55.000So Somali Somali refugees and it's not even the refugees it's their kids who are because Sweden is so overwhelmingly racist What they did was in the 90s.
01:16:06.000They brought in a bunch of Somali refugees those refugees then had children who are 100% Somali but born in Sweden speaking Swedish and then because Swedes are so racist they were like we're not gonna give you jobs or education and So you basically created this, you create ghettos.
01:16:21.000And then these people who are from Sweden aren't viewed as Somali by their, you know, family in Somalia.
01:16:27.000And they're not viewed as Swedish by people in Sweden.
01:16:29.000So they form pocket communities, effectively viewing themselves outside the state.
01:17:12.000Yeah, going back to the Roman Empire, basically part of the downfall of that was all the mass migration from the north because the Huns were coming from the east and it's just, you know, just spilled over and then you'd see in desperate times there would be these huge like...
01:17:25.000Like, civilizations would be migrating and the Romans would go murder them all because they couldn't handle it.
01:19:07.000But what's actually also interesting on the immigration is Chile this past week was actually holding protests against the Venezuelan migrants that are coming into their country.
01:19:16.000So we're seeing kind of that kind of play out in South America as well.
01:19:19.000But as of right now, we're getting reports that more Haitians are making the trek to the US-Mexican border.
01:19:47.000Yeah, and just letting in this huge migration isn't good.
01:19:49.000I mean, and we're also seeing with all the, um, kind of the Afghan immigrants that we just, we just brought, I mean, refugees we just brought in.
01:19:55.000There was those already, there are already reports of some sexual assault in some of the military camps that they're staying at.
01:20:31.000The Democrats are like, get rid of the filibuster and ram through our agenda in the face of Republicans instead of just take care of your own states.
01:20:37.000Why should New York ram through an agenda for West Virginia?
01:20:47.000But they're like, you know, we'll get rid of the filibuster, then we'll ram through stuff.
01:20:50.000And it's like, bro, the only track we're on is it breaks apart.
01:20:54.000But when you mentioned the National Guard is just fanning these people in and being like, well, there's not much we can do.
01:20:58.000It's like, dude, when your border can't guard its border and people can walk back and forth for takeout, you have no border.
01:21:06.000And if you have no border, you have no country.
01:21:07.000It's honestly, it's a joke, Tim, how these, how, you know, just watching like them go back and forth, then, you know, seeing the National Guard.
01:21:32.000Still not counting those gotaways that get in.
01:21:36.000We have these large family units that we don't know if they're family units getting processed into the United States, getting flown all over the country.
01:21:41.000I just flew today from the McAllen Airport to Dallas, and on my flight, I mean, the majority were Central American migrants being flown.
01:21:50.000Holding with the folders that say, I don't speak any English, can you help me with my next flight?
01:21:54.000And then on the other side, it has all the, like, where they're stopping.
01:21:58.000So say, like, McAllen to Houston to New York, or McAllen-Houston to New Jersey, whatever.
01:22:57.000I'm like, that's the opposite we're seeing on the ground.
01:22:59.000The thing is, when they get a court order, these migrants, that court order could take up to even three years for them even to have a date.
01:23:07.000These are just, like I said, it's like every color is a different migrant or smuggling group.
01:23:12.000So last night we were running into the same group with all these black bracelets and the majority of the migrants that we spoke to last night were coming from Nicaragua.
01:23:21.000We did meet two from Cuba, which I was pretty shocked.
01:23:26.000Every time that we're down there we want to show these people that or show the American audience like look what's going on at an alarming rate and the thing is it's like the the national attention from the border it like the spotlight moved as soon as the Haitians got cleared out of the bridge we were there all the mainstream media left and they were done and I was like you know what let's let's continue to to show people what you know what's going on and I'll be back I'll be back in Texas pretty soon but This situation, like I said, it rose out not just, you know, Texas, but like, how, you know, Sonic and I being in California, seeing those migrants being forced to work those grow-ups.
01:23:57.000And it's happened all across California and in different states as well.
01:24:00.000You were saying in, like, in ancient Rome, they were dealing with a migration crisis?
01:24:05.000Yeah, the Huns came from the east and tons of civilizations fled into, like, northeast Rome.
01:24:11.000And it was basically the fall of the empire was a big part of it.
01:24:13.000There was also, wasn't there like a credit crunch?
01:24:18.000I don't know if in ancient Rome there was.
01:24:20.000It does feel though like China is laughing at us seeing this huge demise and kind of everything you were saying too Tim with like the state powers and stuff but it's also that our elites in this country are not even loyal to this country they have already aligned themselves with with China whether it's big business whether it's entertainers or politicians they've all decided that they have aligned themselves with you know the Chinese Communist Party.
01:24:43.000Maybe 2008 was the iceberg and since then the elites have been like well We got 20 years.
01:24:49.000Start collecting that silverware to sell off.
01:24:51.000And they hit up China and say, look, our ship's sinking.
01:25:01.000Look at the whole situation with John Cena.
01:25:05.000He came out and said something about positive or I think he recognized Taiwan.
01:25:08.000And then within two days, he's already making his video in Mandarin apologizing to the Chinese people.
01:25:14.000That's all the American companies do the same thing is they'll bow down their head to China.
01:25:20.000That's why I love South Park when they continue to troll China and Jing and stuff like that.
01:25:25.000But, yeah, I mean, like I said, our elites, our politicians have all aligned with them and, you know, they're not loyal to this country.
01:25:31.000I mean, we've already been seeing this, you know, in the NAFTA and the trade deals when we shipped all of our manufacturing jobs to China.
01:25:37.000And, you know, we saw states like Michigan and Ohio, Penn State, I mean, Pennsylvania lose All that manufacturing jobs and we saw all those basically you know huge unemployment and men that you know we're used to I'm talking about like single income family men now have no jobs because those manufacturing jobs got shipped even now we're seeing on the southern border all the fentanyl and opioids getting pushed into those same communities.
01:26:03.000I think in the long run, I mean, humanity is going to be fine.
01:26:06.000But for a lot of people, I think they view America as the world.
01:26:11.000And so what I see it is like, you know, look, if in the end, West Virginia, Texas, New Hampshire, Florida, Wyoming, whatever, red state says, we're going to do our own thing.
01:26:27.000Look at the Sea Peoples, another group of migrants 1200 BC or something that came from the north and no one knows why but they overran Mesopotamia and it was the end of like civilization as it was known and then like small dark age and then you start to see like the resurgence but that's just the nature of reality is tragedy and migration.
01:26:46.000We have great technology, you know, long-range electricity, well long-range communication electricity.
01:26:52.000Maybe, maybe we can use the American ideals and rewrite like a more organized system for the globe.
01:26:57.000I think it's beyond nationalism at this point.
01:26:59.000Obviously, these borders don't really matter anymore.
01:27:01.000But it's also like a huge, it's a huge cultural problem because these people are not going to assimilate.
01:27:06.000And if they're working low, you know, low wage, low skilled jobs are most likely going to get on some type of welfare that then after that the American taxpayer has to pick up that bill.
01:27:14.000Not only that, let's say if someone's whole ideology is not aligned towards protecting what America is based on and stuff like that, and they go towards empathizing more with these migrants.
01:27:26.000I would appeal to them, think about what they have to go through.
01:27:30.000Because when we're talking to all these people, They get killed.
01:27:33.000They were like, we watch these people run these marijuana camps, all these illegal immigrants.
01:27:49.000So if you're like, just like, as like, let's say you're like a full-on progressive
01:27:53.000and you're all about immigration and all about letting people in.
01:27:56.000Like just think about what conditions these people have to go through.
01:27:59.000But they don't because this is impacting black and brown people at a record number and they're nowhere to be found.
01:28:05.000Not one progressive has even came down to the border and said look at these conditions look at these facilities that are that are overpopulated by over 500% some of these facilities.
01:28:15.000Like I said some of these pods are only made for eight people they got 400 people in there.
01:28:19.000Even NBC News is reporting that they're getting sexually assaulted.
01:28:43.000This whole situation at the end of the day was created by these policies and these attracted these people and they were all starry-eyed and let's say a little exploitive.
01:29:17.000And that's why Biden's approval rating just kept dipping.
01:29:20.000And we were speaking to some DHA sources who they told us the Biden administration was taking such a political blowback on the Haitian migration.
01:29:26.000They said by Friday, all those Haitian migrants need to be off the bridge and port of entry open.
01:29:31.000We're going to act like nothing ever happened.
01:29:33.000I don't think Democrats can survive politically.
01:29:38.000I mean, you've got a year, basically an eternity, so we'll see what happens, but Biden's approval rating's in the gutter.
01:29:42.000The honeymoon period's over, people are starting to wake up to the fact that this guy's out of his gore and he can't run or manage anything.
01:29:48.000I think Joe Biden's presidency was literally a steal all the silverware before the people find out what your plan is.
01:30:15.000And Kamala Harris has also taken a huge hit on her popularity because she basically got assigned Borza and she's been taking a hit.
01:30:22.000And according to some of these White House sources who came out and are talking, they're saying Kamala Harris doesn't want to visit the border because she doesn't even want to take the blame anymore.
01:30:30.000And she kind of felt like they put her in that position.
01:30:34.000Biden is taking a huge hit because on this one issue, you could get those Latino Democratic voters to say, hold on, this is our people now.
01:30:41.000I'm not voting for this again, so we'll see.
01:30:43.000Then all those, you know, and the data backs it up, because if you look at the Texas border
01:30:46.000towns, they're all 80% majority Latino.
01:30:49.000In 2016, all those border towns voted overwhelmingly for Clinton.
01:31:04.000I just I put up the video out on Twitter where I interviewed Latino working-class in Del Rio and they were just livid at the Haitian migration situation.
01:31:53.000I think by the same rate last year, we're already at a 5% increase.
01:31:57.000I mean, 500% increase in apprehensions?
01:31:59.000This is nothing like we've ever seen before.
01:32:01.000I speak to Border Patrol, they're overwhelmed.
01:32:04.000And now they're also, not only are they overwhelmed with the situation, they're not getting any help from the administration.
01:32:08.000And then to top it off, they're now being attacked politically by that administration with these fake viral photos of them getting whipped.
01:32:16.000And what I love about that story is the photographer for that, two days ago, told El Paso KTSM, which is, you know, local news station, that him and his colleagues didn't see any whipping at all.
01:32:27.000Yet the Biden administration ran with it.
01:32:29.000Jen Psaki came out and announced that the Biden administration is going to ban horse patrol
01:33:44.000I'm not familiar with what those things are.
01:33:45.000BIS is Bank of International Settlements, which is kind of the mother central bank of all the central banks on Earth.
01:33:50.000Not all of them, but a big one in Switzerland.
01:33:52.000And that kind of, you see the Federal Reserve of New York, Bank of England, and the Bank of Australia funnel their funds through the Bank of International Settlements with no oversight.
01:34:01.000Martin says, a great doctor once told me that the wisdom comes from the nurses.
01:38:08.000One of the biggest problems I have with the mandate is that there could be someone who's got like a weird medical issue, it's embarrassing, and then you go to the restaurant with your friends and they're like, where's your Vax card?
01:38:17.000And then you got to be like, I'd like to publicly announce on my friends that I have a very embarrassing condition.
01:40:49.000It means like Freedom City, but you know, Stan means city.
01:40:52.000So, um, I think we talked about it like a member segment a year ago.
01:40:56.000Well, not a year ago, like back in February when Luke was here, where we were like, why don't we just get a big plot of acreage in the middle of nowhere?
01:41:18.000I'm going to build a solar road and show you that it works.
01:41:22.000Okay, Ian raise the funds for a solar load Now what does make sense for a solar road is shielding the road with Something above it with solar panels around it and then it prevents some weathering on the road keeps them dry So you don't got a salt and you don't got a sand and stuff like that stops wear and tear But you got to focus on the solar panels above it.
01:41:45.000So you'd be basically building a scaffold over Road, so I read stuff about that.
01:41:50.000That's interesting Yeah, there's one of those in Asia somewhere I was looking at.
01:41:53.000Yeah, like the whole thing is covered with solar panels.
01:42:45.000When you live out in the middle of nowhere in West Virginia, we got a Facebook group, and they're like, hey guys, saw a bear down at the, you know, at the turn.
01:43:53.000Well, once we have the Fativerse project up and running where people can have their own independent websites that sync and all this stuff, it's going to be groundbreaking.
01:43:59.000Yeah, we could build Raspberry Pis with preloaded software that we could sell.
01:45:49.000No, but like maybe like, you know, we were actually... We had some people we were booking and then just... Dude, venues don't want to book.
01:47:12.000Somebody was saying that guys like the interrogation and women like the drama of being a victim, which was super interesting to me.
01:47:21.000We got a new show coming out, um, hopefully this week we're going to be having Shane Cashman on the show Friday to talk about mysteries and true crime and paranormal.
01:47:30.000So true crime, what exactly does it mean?
01:49:42.000It's like over 400 a day and around 570 get released into the United States every day, which according to the New York Times, one of those three migrant children are going to get lost in the system.
01:50:11.000Well, there's an interesting argument.
01:50:12.000I say, stand up for what you believe in, don't just give in and let them sweep through, but there's a lot of, I guess, I don't know what the right word is, how you describe these people, but there's a lot of people on the right who are like, it would be better if the Democrats win a sweeping super majority across the board, because then it would force all the Republicans in the country to snap into some kind of action and then cause some kind of divorce or civil war or whatever.
01:50:31.000Yeah, I don't know if that's true or that would happen, but a lot of people are like, you know, when Trump comes out and says, it's rigged.
01:51:26.000Anno says, America is going to collapse so bad and it's going to be hell in this country with all these people, cartels, gangs, and the culture war BS.
01:51:33.000All this is done on purpose in the name of population control.
01:51:36.000I'm not entirely convinced, but I think, you know, certainly the climate change people have said the best thing you can do for the environment is not have kids.
01:54:52.000But we call him, his name is Roberto Jr.
01:54:54.000And then we have the two, so there was a girl was born from Margaret and Roberto, then from Katerina and Roberto, and then Margaret and Roberto.
01:56:03.000Cody Wheeler says, everyone knows about the cartel grows in Cali, but nobody is talking about all the cartel grows that popped up in Southern Oregon.
01:56:11.000I work at a plant nursery in Klamath County, and earlier this year we had a $60,000 soil order.
01:56:19.000Yeah, they're in Washington State, they're in Oregon, but they're wreaking havoc in California because of that Prop 64 and knocking down illegal cultivation from a misdemeanor to a felony.
01:56:35.000Uh, for a beef nasty says you thought of, uh, you thought of making replicas of these bracelets to sell, to spread awareness, donate profits, profits to stop this.
01:56:44.000Something I can physically show to family to spread the word.
01:56:46.000Cause it might hit home stronger than just another story.
01:57:02.000But make replicas and then, you know, sell them for 20 bucks and have all the proceeds go towards... Something like human trafficking organizations.
01:57:44.000Everyone should read the storm before the storm the beginning of the end of the Roman Republic by Mike Duncan
01:57:48.000I believe the immigration in Rome was during the collapse of the Empire not the Republic the Republic collapse is
01:57:53.000more in line with us Oh, so we're gonna become the Empire
01:57:56.000God I like that title already Is that having the Republic collapse and became an empire?
01:58:02.000Yeah, the Empire Julius Caesar, you know, invaded the capital and took over basically.
01:58:06.000And then like hundreds of years later, the Empire started to crumble and all this migration from the Huns of like 500 AD or a little bit before that from the Northeast.
01:58:19.000When you're not swimming with the Haitians?
01:58:21.000Heath Hansen says, Migration crisis, huge part of the collapse of Rome.
01:58:25.000The Huns caused a huge shift of barbarians that crossed borders in multiple ways that the Empire struggled and eventually failed to manage.
01:59:14.000The goal, the point, uh, the show is going to be, there's like a 15 to 20 minute show with full sound effects, music, when, you know, like I was explaining to Ian, but more seriously.
01:59:23.000So when you have, you know, Shane doing voiceover and he says, you know, I was walking down the street at night investigating and a car drives by, then you'll hear the actual car pan from left to right and all that cool sound effects.
01:59:32.000And then for the members content, we're going to have Shane hanging out with one of the members of the crew and potentially other guests talking about the story and other issues around it.
01:59:43.000So there's one thing we really hope to do with Alex Jones, if he's ever interested in coming back on, which would be awesome, is to have Alex sit with Shane discussing one of his stories and conspiracies.
01:59:53.000Because it'll be fascinating for Shane, who actually travels and does on-the-ground investigations.
01:59:59.000We're actually investigating a story about Confederate gold.
02:00:02.000To then hear Alex Jones talk about his knowledge of all these crazy stories and experiences would be fantastic.
02:00:07.000The other thing we want to do with Alex is just put Alex and Ian in a room and turn the camera on and we'll all leave.
02:00:15.000I feel like it's like it would be like when you turn a camera on and point it at a TV and then you get an endless like recursive loop of the screen.
02:00:22.000Except you'll see images of Thomas Jefferson and the Illuminati and Ben Franklin swirling around.
02:00:28.000Ian and Alex talking would like create a hyper time spiral as you're watching it.
02:00:34.000Words would slowly become meaningless.
02:00:36.000They'd be like shaking like crazy and there'd be light emerging from the center of the room and you'd be like, what's happening?
02:00:41.000Alex's dad was like, they wanted him to join the, basically they wanted to co-op them into the Deep State, but he wouldn't do it, according to him.
02:00:47.000So his dad's like, Right on the precipice, he knew, you know, he saw a lot.
02:00:51.000And Alex listened to it as a young man.
02:01:46.000We have no, uh, there are a lot of billionaires apparently heavily interested in Fredamistan because the idea like me, like Luke was talking about, we're talking about having like this place where we would just be like, set up a small little spot where you can live and it's like a freedom community or something.
02:02:00.000And apparently there's a bunch of like wealthy investors that were like, we want to be involved in that.
02:02:03.000And I'm like, but we don't need that kind of support.
