Summary

Summaries generated with gmurro/bart-large-finetuned-filtered-spotify-podcast-summ .

In this episode, host Nicholas J.J. Fuentes talks about the ongoing FBI investigation into him and why he believes he should be brought to justice for his involvement in a civil, First Amendment-protected demonstration in Washington, D.C. on the day of the Women's March on the Capitol. He also talks about how technology companies are using their power to stifle freedom of speech, and why it's only a matter of time before they do the same to everyone else. He also explains why he thinks China is not much different than the United States and why they should be paying attention to what's going on in the Middle East and other parts of the world that aren't getting the same attention they're getting from the media and the political system. The FBI is investigating him for his role in a protest outside the White House, but it's not clear when it will decide to bring him in or when they'll decide to press charges against him for anything he's done. It may be years before they decide to do anything, and if they do decide to charge him, it could take years to build a case against him, or it may not even be a case at all. He's not the only one who's been targeted by tech companies, and that's the problem, not just by the government, but by the media, not by the tech companies themselves. I'm living proof that the Chinese government is just as bad as the U.S. government, and they're not that much different. And they don't even care about freedom, they're just doing their best to give us what we think we need to get the most out of it, they just don't give us the most money they can get from the most of our taxes, and we're just as we're paying them the most they can afford. They're not even paying us the same thing we're getting in the most we can get in the best way they're paying for it, we're not getting any more of it...they're not giving us any more, are they really giving us the best service we can afford? is it really that we can be free, they are not even giving us a choice, we can we have a choice to vote for us to vote on our money, or are they're giving us anything we want us a better day, or we're going to get it, or they're gonna pay us more, or do we get it?

00:00:00.000 Face from the Chinese government. 0.99
00:00:02.000 It's not that much different and I'm living proof.
00:00:10.000 The first political content that I ever saw was an interview with Thomas Sowell, actually, for the Hoover Institute.
00:00:16.000 Every single time the reduction in the tax rates has led to an increase in tax revenue.
00:00:22.000 So I hear people on television saying how the government can't afford to give this tax cuts to the rich, you know, not giving anything to anybody.
00:00:32.000 The first book I read was Free to Choose by Milton Friedman and, you know, from that point on I was political.
00:00:39.000 Good evening, everybody.
00:00:40.000 You're watching America First.
00:00:42.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.
00:00:43.000 We have a great show for you tonight.
00:00:45.000 I've been doing this show now for four years.
00:00:48.000 Really, it's been a quest for truth and for knowledge ever since I got into this stuff, which was when I was a little kid, ever since I was in middle school.
00:00:56.000 I started to realize that there would be consequences for my views almost immediately.
00:01:01.000 I started my show America First in February 2017, and the first ever hit piece that was written about me came in April 2017 in response to comments I had made on my show.
00:01:13.000 And of course, the comments were taken out of context.
00:01:15.000 The first major wave of deplatforming was in 2019 that I got banned from Discord, Reddit, Twitch, and then PayPal.
00:01:25.000 People forget how rapidly that's accelerated.
00:01:29.000 I distinctly remembered when tech censorship arrived on the scene as a new phenomenon.
00:01:35.000 I got banned from Twitter!
00:01:38.000 And now, that's just the law of the land.
00:01:40.000 I was suspended from Twitter yesterday.
00:01:42.000 Permanently suspended.
00:01:44.000 The big tech companies have launched their fiercest attack yet on your right as an American to follow your conscience and to say what you believe.
00:01:44.000 Gone.
00:01:51.000 There was this sense ever since I got started that total deplatforming was inevitable.
00:01:57.000 They banned the sitting president of the United States from Twitter.
00:02:01.000 They don't give you a reason.
00:02:02.000 It's not like they have a good reason.
00:02:04.000 I'm now banned from every major social media platform.
00:02:07.000 As somebody who was deeply entrenched in the media ecosystem and in the landscape, it was pretty clear what the writing on the wall was, which is that everybody is going to be deplatformed from everything, and it's only a matter of time.
00:02:25.000 Currently, the FBI is pursuing an investigation against me for my involvement at the Capitol.
00:02:30.000 I had done nothing wrong at the Capitol.
00:02:32.000 I committed no crime.
00:02:33.000 I went there for the Trump rally on the Ellipse, which was just outside the White House.
00:02:37.000 I walked to the Capitol with hundreds of thousands of other people for a civil, First Amendment-protected demonstration.
00:02:45.000 I didn't participate in any violence, illegal criminal activity, and so on the one hand I knew I had done nothing wrong, but I also know that in this new country that we have, that doesn't necessarily protect you from law enforcement.
00:02:57.000 I won't even know when the investigation ends.
00:03:00.000 It may still be going on.
00:03:02.000 It may not be.
00:03:04.000 They don't actually tell you.
00:03:05.000 It's open-ended as far as that's concerned.
00:03:07.000 They investigate you.
00:03:08.000 They don't tell you when it ends.
00:03:10.000 And it could be years before they return, before they show up, before they build their case and finally decide to bring you in.
00:03:17.000 And if they decide not to do that, well, they'll never tell you either way.
00:03:21.000 They don't tell you that either.
00:03:26.000 One night I think I was playing video games or streaming or something and before I started up to go to bed I checked my email and I saw my email that my credit card had been declined for some subscription and I said well that's weird I don't think I'm over my limit on my credit card as far as I know it's a good credit card and so I go to my online banking app and I see that on my checking account it was zero dollars
00:03:50.000 And understand I had something like a half million dollars in that checking account just the other day.
00:03:56.000 And so at first I assumed, I thought this is a glitch, you know.
00:03:59.000 So I refreshed the app and nothing changes.
00:04:02.000 I closed the app, I reopened it, nothing happened.
00:04:06.000 And upon further investigation I saw there was a legal order placed on my account.
00:04:11.000 I went through my transaction history and I saw legal order and subtracted my entire bank balance.
00:04:18.000 I froze both my credit cards and my entire checking account was frozen, which is where nearly all of my cash was.
00:04:24.000 I called customer service at the bank.
00:04:26.000 I said, where's my money?
00:04:28.000 They said, well, we'll get to the bottom of this.
00:04:28.000 What's going on?
00:04:30.000 They called their legal department.
00:04:32.000 They call me back a few minutes later and they tell me, your account is under review and we could give you no other information.
00:04:38.000 And I was furious.
00:04:39.000 I said, are you kidding me?
00:04:41.000 I had all this money one day and now it's gone.
00:04:44.000 When's it going to be released?
00:04:45.000 Who's doing this?
00:04:46.000 Why is this happening?
00:04:47.000 And they just kept saying the same thing.
00:04:50.000 All we could tell you is your account is under review.
00:04:52.000 And so I called the bank every single day for two weeks.
00:04:55.000 Multiple times every day for two weeks.
00:04:57.000 And finally after about, I think it must have been 15 or 16 days, she calls me back.
00:05:03.000 And she says, Mr. Fuentes, I have some good news for you.
00:05:05.000 We have an update on your account.
00:05:07.000 In order to get in touch with the people that have placed a legal order on your account, you can call these numbers, and she gives me three phone numbers for U.S.
00:05:16.000 attorneys working for the Department of Justice.
00:05:19.000 And so at that point, I know this is an FBI investigation.
00:05:24.000 At that point, I know this is the Department of Justice, which has placed a freeze on all my cash in my bank account.
00:05:31.000 And the reason why this is so crushing is because the Department of Justice and the FBI are immovable.
00:05:37.000 Because of the War on Terror, because of the Patriot Act, because of how the federal government operates, they really can do whatever they want to whoever they want, and there's nothing you can do about it.
00:05:49.000 And so I talked to my lawyer, I asked him, can I get my money back?
00:05:53.000 Is there anything I could do?
00:05:54.000 Do they have to release it?
00:05:56.000 Which are the obvious questions that anyone would ask.
00:05:59.000 And the response is basically, they can take your money, they don't need a reason, and they can keep it as long as they want and they don't have to give it back.
00:06:08.000 And this is how the federal government works.
00:06:10.000 A lot of people assume that because this is America and not Russia or China that there must be something that can be done.
00:06:16.000 You must be able to sue.
00:06:18.000 You must be able to file something and pursue some kind of recourse.
00:06:24.000 But sadly, that's not the case.
00:06:26.000 If you find yourself the subject of an FBI investigation, if you find yourself a target of the federal government, there's really nothing more that you can do.
00:06:36.000 It's as inevitable as death or gravity.
00:06:39.000 The federal government is going to do what it's going to do.
00:06:43.000 And you're just along for the ride.
00:06:44.000 All of that concentrated power that's been built up in Washington D.C.
00:06:49.000 is being rotated and turned inwardly.
00:06:51.000 And the kind of shock and awe that we saw in 2003 or 2001, Patriot Act, Panopticon surveillance state, that's now being wielded by politicians, bureaucrats, connected, wealthy, elite people
00:07:06.000 And they can now wield that and utilize that against people with American citizenship.
00:07:10.000 People that have done nothing wrong, are not criminals, are not a threat to society, but people that are merely an inconvenience or a problem to powerful people.
00:07:18.000 And so at that point, that's the total end of a free society.
00:07:22.000 That's the end of your rights, that's the end of your property, and it could be the end of your life.
00:07:26.000 And so that was the first major instance of the federal government coming after me after January 6th.
00:07:59.000 I had planned a press conference in Palm Beach, Florida, to demand that Ron DeSantis strengthen his big tech censorship legislation.
00:08:08.000 I have it on authority that Ron DeSantis signed a toothless big tech censorship bill.
00:08:13.000 And so the press conference was supposed to be attended by me, Michelle Malkin, Laura Loomer, Lauren Witski, a few other friends of mine.
00:08:20.000 Lauren Witski flew into Florida the day before the press conference, and she had texted me that day and said that she was put through advanced screening.
00:08:28.000 So I show up to O'Hare Airport the morning of the press conference.
00:08:41.000 I had an American Airlines flight booked from Chicago to Fort Lauderdale, and I was unable to print my boarding pass.
00:08:47.000 But I go to the kiosk, and the kiosk wasn't letting me check in either, which was weird to me, but it fell in line with my expectation.
00:08:53.000 I thought, well, I'm not able to check in because I'm on some kind of a list.
00:08:58.000 All I have to do is go to the counter and have them print my boarding pass for me and I'll be on my way.
00:09:02.000 I might have to go through security like others have but I'll be on a plane in no time.
00:09:06.000 So I go to the front desk.
00:09:07.000 So can you help me print my boarding pass?
00:09:09.000 The representative from American gets on the phone and she's on the phone for 30-45 minutes.
00:09:15.000 So I'm getting increasingly nervous like is this gonna work out like I was told it would?
00:09:19.000 And she gives me a disappointed look and she says I'm sorry but you're not able to fly today.
00:09:26.000 She told me, you don't have clearance to board a plane today.
00:09:29.000 And I said, what?
00:09:31.000 I said, can you call again?
00:09:32.000 She goes, okay.
00:09:33.000 She humors me.
00:09:34.000 She calls them up again, returns the same response.
00:09:38.000 I can't give you any information, but you can't fly today.
00:09:42.000 And, you know, my head starts spinning.
00:09:44.000 I'm thinking, is this the airline?
00:09:45.000 Is this the airport?
00:09:47.000 Is it the TSA?
00:09:48.000 Is it a federal thing?
00:09:50.000 Am I on a no-fly list?
00:09:51.000 Or is this something that's being administered by an airline or something more local?
00:09:56.000 She didn't have any answers for me.
00:09:58.000 She just told I couldn't get on a plane.
00:10:00.000 I said, I am political.
00:10:02.000 I said, I think that might have something to do with it.
00:10:04.000 She said, I looked you up.
00:10:05.000 She said, I suspect that that might be the case.
00:10:07.000 I said, okay.
00:10:08.000 She told me to try booking another flight from a different airline.
00:10:12.000 So I did.
00:10:13.000 I got all my bags.
00:10:14.000 I went over to the United Terminal at O'Hare.
00:10:17.000 I sat down.
00:10:18.000 I booked a flight.
00:10:19.000 United flight to Palm Beach, Florida.
00:10:22.000 So I go up to the counter to print my boarding pass.
00:10:24.000 Representative gets on the phone.
00:10:26.000 She's on the phone for 45 minutes.
00:10:28.000 She asks me, are you flying alone?
00:10:30.000 Are you planning on bringing a gun on the plane?
00:10:30.000 Yes.
00:10:33.000 No.
00:10:34.000 You know, goes through a series of questions.
00:10:35.000 And then she says, I'm sorry, you can't fly today.
00:10:39.000 Same deal.
00:10:40.000 I said, is it the airline?
00:10:42.000 Is it the airport?
00:10:42.000 She said, I don't know, but I'm just being told by airport security, you can't fly on the plane today.
00:10:47.000 I said, okay, so I'm on a no-fly list.
00:10:50.000 America's first founder, Nick Fuentes, put on no-fly list.
00:10:55.000 It's a part of a very coordinated and systematic effort to intimidate and persecute people that are against the Biden administration, people that are against the American regime, specifically Trump supporters and the leaders of Trump supporters such as yourself and me.
00:11:08.000 Michael Sherwin, who is directing the Capitol investigation in DC, he said on 60 Minutes, and he actually got in trouble for it, he said the reason they went after the
00:11:17.000 Internet celebrities and the people on social media first, when they were investigating the Capitol, was to create a shock and awe effect and prevent people from protesting the inauguration.
00:11:28.000 So I wanted to ensure and our office wanted to ensure that there was shock and awe that we could charge as many people as possible before the 20th.
00:11:36.000 And it worked because we saw through media posts that people were afraid to come back to D.C.
00:11:42.000 because they were like, if we go there, we're going to get charged.
00:11:44.000 And so it represents a major escalation.
00:11:49.000 So I get home, I tweet about it, I say, hey, I'm on a no-fly list, and this goes viral.
00:11:53.000 Everybody starts talking about this.
00:11:56.000 Political dissident, persecuted, put on a no-fly list for his views.
00:12:00.000 That's the headline.
00:12:01.000 And what I find is that people are asking me for evidence.
00:12:04.000 And, you know, so I talked to Glenn Greenwald, I talked to a few other people.
00:12:09.000 I don't have any evidence and in fact I found out
00:12:28.000 That they're actually not even permitted, the government is not authorized or permitted to tell you if you're on a no-fly list, much less inform you in advance.
00:12:37.000 They don't send you something in the mail, they don't email you, they don't tell you, and even if you ask them they're not permitted to tell you whether or not you're on the list.
00:12:46.000 And I did just that.
00:12:48.000 I called the TSA and I asked them am I on a no-fly list.
00:12:51.000 I just had this experience and they told me that that's classified law enforcement information.
00:12:56.000 We can't tell you.
00:12:57.000 I went out to Midway Airport and I booked yet another flight.
00:13:01.000 A third flight.
00:13:02.000 A Southwest flight to Phoenix.
00:13:04.000 And I thought, surely, if I'm not on a no-fly list, I should be able to make this flight, because it's a different airport, different airline, different destination, different time of day, and I got there four hours before the plane departed.
00:13:18.000 So I thought, if I can't get on this flight, there's no reason that I wouldn't be able to, other than that I am on a federal no-fly list.
00:13:25.000 I'll be able to confirm it that way.
00:13:28.000 And this time I recorded it.
00:13:30.000 I tried to check in, wasn't able to do it.
00:13:32.000 On my phone, at the kiosk, I went to the customer service counter and had the exact same experience.
00:13:37.000 And there's no way I can get on this plane?
00:13:40.000 No.
00:13:40.000 They're not letting you fly with Southwest.
00:13:42.000 With Southwest?
00:13:43.000 I'm not sure about other airlines.
00:13:45.000 Delta maybe?
00:13:45.000 I'm not sure.
00:13:47.000 Okay.
00:13:47.000 I know that was a TSA number.
00:13:49.000 I'm not sure if you're blocked from all, just the no-fly list.
00:13:52.000 Did they give you a reason?
00:13:53.000 It's a no-fly list you said?
00:13:53.000 No.
00:13:55.000 I'm not sure.
00:13:56.000 Okay.
00:13:57.000 Alright.
00:13:58.000 They just told me that you're not allowed to fly.
00:14:01.000 Okay?
00:14:01.000 That's all they told me.
00:14:03.000 Okay.
00:14:04.000 Alright, thank you.
00:14:05.000 And they told me there's no way I could fly today, there's nothing I could do about it, nobody I could talk to, and they didn't know if there was any other airline that would accommodate me.
00:14:13.000 And I recorded the whole encounter, posted it on social media, and that was the end of that.
00:14:18.000 That's how I figured out I'm on a no-fly list.
00:14:20.000 This overbroad dragnet swept up young Trump supporter and America First show host Nick Fuentes.
00:14:26.000 Nick was just trying to fly to exercise his First Amendment.
00:14:28.000 You know, America's not a police state.
00:14:31.000 They are politically persecuting us.
00:14:32.000 They are coming for us.
00:14:34.000 They are coming to destroy our lives.
00:14:35.000 Get Nick Fuentes off of the no-fly list.
00:14:38.000 He has no business being there.
00:14:39.000 He's not a domestic terrorist.
00:14:41.000 I'm so controversial to mainstream political people that they don't even care to talk about things that happen to me that they don't agree with.
00:14:49.000 When it's far-reaching censorship or even freezing of my assets, I've never had any sympathy from the mainstream before.
00:14:57.000 And ultimately, Tucker Carlson talked about it on his show that very night on Fox News.
00:15:02.000 This is a turning point in American history.
00:15:05.000 These are people, again, who have not been charged with crimes.
00:15:09.000 If they have been prevented from traveling within their own country by the administration because the administration doesn't like their political views, that is not democracy.
00:15:18.000 It's dictatorship.
00:15:19.000 Everybody, it seemed like, came together to say, well, even though we don't always like this guy, we don't like everything that he says, we don't agree with the fact that the government is now openly and actively persecuting dissidents.
00:15:32.000 The insurrectionists
00:15:45.000 People may not like my views, they may not like me personally, but I'm somebody that did nothing wrong, and I'm being punished by the federal government in a real tangible way that is really life-changing for doing nothing other than saying something that they disagree with, saying something that they don't like.
00:16:02.000 And we demand that we get a proper audit of every single parent from the state of Georgia!
00:16:14.000 President Trump is our rightful president and we demand that he be seated for four more years!
00:16:22.000 This is a life-changing turn of events.
00:16:24.000 This is something where this changes my entire outlook now.
00:16:29.000 I can't just go to Florida on a weekend.
00:16:32.000 That's a 14-hour drive.
00:16:34.000 I can't just go to Phoenix on a whim.
00:16:36.000 That's a 27-hour drive.
00:16:38.000 I've not been charged with a crime.
00:16:40.000 I've not been convicted for committing a crime.
00:16:43.000 And yet, I'm essentially being punished and imprisoned in a certain way.
00:16:48.000 I'm having my freedom restricted.
00:16:49.000 It's almost like I'm essentially on house arrest.
00:16:52.000 They've taken my money.
00:16:53.000 They've taken my freedom to travel.
00:16:55.000 I've been banned from platforms and payment processors by banks.
00:16:59.000 And so I'm a person who has done nothing wrong, nothing that's violated the law.
00:17:03.000 I've not been charged with anything or convicted.
00:17:05.000 I've not been sentenced to a punishment.
00:17:08.000 And yet both public and private institutions have sentenced me to a lower quality of life than anybody else in the country.
00:17:15.000 Because I'm a political activist for a cause that they don't agree with.
00:17:19.000 And it's as simple as that.
00:17:21.000 I've done nothing other than host an internet livestream show.
00:17:25.000 I did some activism for Stop the Steal.
00:17:27.000 And because this challenges the current regime, that means that I can't board a domestic flight.
00:17:32.000 I'm sure I'm banned from international travel, obviously, if I can't fly to Florida.
00:17:37.000 I don't think they'd let me fly to another country.
00:17:39.000 And they took all my money.
00:17:41.000 And they didn't need a trial to do that, or a conviction.
00:17:44.000 They didn't even need a pretext for anything like that, or much less, they didn't need me to commit a crime to do all of that.
00:17:51.000 So this is a very terrifying precedent that they've set.
00:17:54.000 You know, and it's not even just the precedent, it's the thing in itself.
00:17:58.000 It's a precedent for everybody else, but this is my reality.
00:18:01.000 This is my life.
00:18:03.000 I think I've been targeted because I'm effective.
00:18:07.000 I'm somebody that has been isolated and separated out and singled out exclusively for this level of persecution because there are a variety of things that differentiate me from other people.
00:18:19.000 Up until they took my cash, I had no shortage of money.
00:18:22.000 I'm somebody who can mobilize my supporters in real life in any major city in the country.
00:18:28.000 I'm somebody who's a compelling, effective orator.
00:18:31.000 And, uh, you know, I'm somebody that people are very, very loyal to.
00:18:35.000 And I think if you look throughout history in the United States, it's these kinds of figures that tend to be killed by the government.
00:18:42.000 And, you know, if not killed, targeted, censored, everything like that.
00:18:47.000 You know, they went after Malcolm X, and RFK, and JFK, and MLK, and characters like this throughout the 60s and 70s.
00:18:55.000 They went after musical artists, and activists, and political figures.
00:18:59.000 And I think what differentiates me from most is I'm pushing a message which is really radically different from the mainstream, and I say that in a good way.
00:19:08.000 It's a message that is completely against the ruling regime in the United States.
00:19:14.000 It's completely against the regime.
00:19:16.000 I think?
00:19:34.000 Don't discount that that might be one of the reasons why I've been singled out and targeted in the way that I have.
00:19:39.000 There are people that are voicing a similar message, but it's not as radical, and it's not as compelling.
00:19:45.000 It's not as rhetorically effective.
00:19:47.000 There are people with a bigger following than me, but they can't mobilize those people.
00:19:51.000 Those people aren't loyal to them.
00:19:52.000 And so, that's where I'm truly kind of a unique individual where, throughout Stop the Steal, I demonstrated a particular effectiveness which the federal government's very aware of.
00:20:03.000 This is what weaponization of the federal government looks like, and the legal system. 0.98
00:20:07.000 Don't count on a fair trial.
00:20:08.000 Don't count on the justice system. 0.95
00:20:10.000 There's no justice anymore.
00:20:12.000 They can wage this kind of terror campaign against you without a trial, without evidence, without a charge, without an arrest, and they have to tell you nothing about it, and it goes on in perpetuity.
00:20:23.000 I don't know how that could be constitutional.
00:20:25.000 I don't know how anybody could even see that as right or okay.
00:21:19.000 Americanism, not globalism, will be our credo.
00:21:26.000 It's going to be only America first.
00:21:31.000 America first. 0.99
00:21:35.000 The American people will come first once again. 0.85
00:22:03.000 America First!
00:23:12.000 Good evening everybody!
00:23:14.000 You are watching America First.
00:23:16.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.
00:23:17.000 We have a great show for you tonight.
00:23:19.000 Very excited to be back here with you tonight on Monday.
00:23:24.000 And I hope you just enjoyed our world premiere of the America First mini-documentary, Episode 2.
00:23:33.000 And it's been a long time coming.
00:23:35.000 I know our first episode I think we unveiled... I want to say it was August or maybe it was fall of last year.
00:23:45.000 But we wanted to get that out before AfPak 3.
00:23:48.000 So last week before AfPak 3.
00:23:52.000 So I hope you enjoyed that. 0.98
00:23:55.000 We've had that for a little while now.
00:23:57.000 I think we did the footage for that back in June of 2021.
00:23:59.000 Oh my gosh!
00:24:01.000 So it feels like such a long time ago, but I'm glad y'all finally got to see it.
00:24:05.000 Looks like the reaction universally very positive in the live chat.
00:24:10.000 So I hope you all enjoyed that.
00:24:13.000 Our director on that is just brilliant.
00:24:15.000 And can we get an 07 in chat?
00:24:18.000 Can we get a big shout out and some cheers in chat for our director on that one?
00:24:25.000 I don't know if he wants us to give his whole docs out I know last time it was a little dicey with that but our director with our film team guy's just incredible absolute professional and I think he did an amazing job with that I mean everything from the graphics to the footage you know the production even the b-roll I thought very effective and I don't know about you but I was just texting him a moment ago that last
00:24:53.000 Frame!
00:24:54.000 When it goes through and it lists everything that's happened to me, and it says, you know, he's never been charged with a crime, he's banned from all social media, banned from most banking institutions, the federal government took half a million dollars from him, he can't fly in his own country, and then it all fades away and it says he's never been charged with a crime.
00:25:18.000 I mean, you know, it's me!
00:25:20.000 That happened to me!
00:25:21.000 Like, that's my life.
00:25:23.000 And even me watching it, I'm like, whoa.
00:25:27.000 I'm like, oh my gosh.
00:25:29.000 Wow.
00:25:30.000 I was tearing up a little bit.
00:25:32.000 I have to say, I was feeling it a little bit.
00:25:34.000 I was like, you know, when you put it that way, yeah, it's pretty bad.
00:25:40.000 So...
00:25:42.000 You know, if he's making me get all... If he's getting me emotional about it... That happened to me like a year ago!
00:25:49.000 And I'm watching this and I'm like, man, this poor guy... This poor son of a bitch, he did nothing wrong. 1.00
00:25:57.000 He didn't even get charged with a crime and yet... Look at what's happened to him, so... So if he can make me feel bad about my own story, it's like, wow, it's a good documentary. 1.00
00:26:11.000 So yeah, O7's in chat.
00:26:12.000 Hats off to him.
00:26:13.000 I don't know how these people do it.
00:26:16.000 I'm a big appreciator of film.
00:26:18.000 I've always loved film.
00:26:20.000 But, you know, liking film doesn't necessarily make you technically competent.
00:26:28.000 I don't know how they even begin to put this stuff together, but just really, really well done.
00:26:33.000 So I hope you all enjoyed that.
00:26:34.000 I loved it.
00:26:35.000 The show's gonna be a little bit different tonight.
00:26:39.000 There's actually a lot in the news right now, but I will save that for tomorrow.
00:26:44.000 Tonight I wanted to go over and cover the mini documentary you just watched.
00:26:49.000 I also wanted to get into the Louis Theroux documentary, if that's okay with you.
00:26:55.000 I don't want to spend the night just kind of talking about that stuff and then we'll read super chats and it you know even though it's a Monday it's gonna be more of a casual show tonight I hope you're okay with that but it's sort of a media night you know a documentary night on America first so I want to talk a little bit more about the mini documentary and sort of our plans for that because there's a little bit more on the way
00:27:18.000 I don't want to watch the whole thing on the show tonight because
00:27:36.000 I'm sick of it at this point.
00:27:54.000 But I want to just talk more broadly about it.
00:27:57.000 And that's going to be our show here on Monday.
00:28:00.000 Like I said, though, it's kind of like... I mean, it worked out that I have to do this show the following day.
00:28:06.000 You know, the documentary came out yesterday.
00:28:08.000 Now I've got to cover it tonight.
00:28:11.000 Which kind of sucks, because it's been slow news for weeks and weeks, and now something finally happens, and... We've got to save it for tomorrow.
00:28:19.000 But that's okay.
00:28:22.000 So that'll be our show.
00:28:23.000 Before we get into everything though, I just want to remind you as always to follow me on Gabin Telegram.

00:29:26.000 We announced our speaker and special guest lineup on Friday.
00:29:31.000 Very, very, very exciting.
00:29:33.000 And already, we're expanding it!
00:29:36.000 So we're actually gonna come out with a new roster.
00:29:40.000 At some point this week, we've got a few more special guests.
00:29:44.000 We will be announcing one of our mystery speakers.
00:29:47.000 And we're even potentially getting more speakers!
00:29:51.000 So, honestly, AFPAC is always just a gift that keeps on giving.
00:29:56.000 If you missed the show on Friday, if you haven't seen it, our speaker lineup right now is this.
00:30:01.000 We've got our keynote speaker, our headliner, he will finish off the night,
00:30:09.000 Nicholas J. Fuentes.
00:30:10.000 We also have speaking Vince James from the Red Elephants.
00:30:15.000 We've got Stu Peters from the Stu Peters Show.
00:30:19.000 Andrew Torba, the CEO of Gab.
00:30:22.000 And from the Fallen State and the Jesse Lee Peterson Show, we have Jesse Lee Peterson.
00:30:28.000 So really, really excited about that lineup.
00:30:31.000 It's honestly mind-blowing.
00:30:34.000 Some of our favorite cozy streamers.
00:30:36.000 We've got Vince
00:30:38.000 Who brought down the house last year.
00:30:40.000 Honestly, I'm feeling threatened by him.
00:30:44.000 Okay?
00:30:44.000 Every year at AFPAC, you know, this used to be easy.
00:30:47.000 When I was the only one in the room, it used to be easy.
00:30:51.000 Now, there's all this competition.
00:30:54.000 Not that it is a competition, but, you know, I sometimes feel a little bit of a competition.
00:31:02.000 And so at AFPAC One, we had Michelle Malkin come, and she, and it was like, gave everyone chills.
00:31:09.000 Like, everybody in the room had goosebumps when she gave her speech.
00:31:12.000 It was just amazing.
00:31:14.000 You could hear, at some parts of the speech, you could hear like a pin drop.
00:31:19.000 And she's, she's an English major, so you know, she's got a little, she has an education, it's not really fair, okay?
00:31:25.000 She has a little bit of an advantage.
00:31:28.000 And then some parts of the speech it was like people could hear us outside because the room was going crazy.
00:31:35.000 And then last year at AFPAC too, Vince gave this insane speech.
00:31:40.000 It was like half the length of mine, but everyone went insane.
00:31:44.000 People were banging on the tables, and if you remember, I was like, probably the highest energy speech of the night.
00:31:49.000 Just killer.
00:31:50.000 So he'll be joining us again this year.
00:31:52.000 I mean, I know people are excited just for his speech alone.
00:31:55.000 Maybe even more than mine!
00:31:57.000 So that's gonna be awesome.
00:31:59.000 We have Stu Peters, of course.
00:32:01.000 This guy just blew up over the past year.
00:32:03.000 Doing incredible on his show.
00:32:05.000 Streams every weeknight here on Cozy.
00:32:07.000 And this guy's pretty impressive.
00:32:09.000 I mean, I think like one year ago, if I'm not mistaken, he wasn't really even involved in politics.
00:32:15.000 Now, he's got one of the biggest shows in America.
00:32:17.000 He's got 300,000 followers on Telegram.
00:32:22.000 The guy's amazing.
00:32:23.000 Single-handedly ended Vernon Jones' political career, which we're very grateful for.
00:32:27.000 So we love Stu.
00:32:29.000 Andrew Torba, the man who needs no introduction, a living legend.
00:32:33.000 Single-handedly protecting free speech online on the entire planet.
00:32:37.000 It's the only platform in the world of that scale that is truly free speech.
00:32:43.000 I think it's the only platform, period, that's truly free speech.
00:32:47.000 And he's fought tooth and nail
00:32:50.000 We're good to go?
00:33:06.000 Jesse Lee Peterson who again another one who needs no introduction another legend from the fallen state.
00:33:12.000 He'll be joining us and You know that the guy is just truly a character He's just gonna be I think everybody here used to watch a show every day on D live and and even to this day I think it's still on YouTube if I'm not mistaken so we love Jesse Lee Peterson an old legend and
00:33:32.000 And a very funny, intelligent, and a pious man.
00:33:36.000 So we're very, I mean, I'm excited about that one too.
00:33:39.000 I met him a couple years ago at Politicon, one of my heroes.
00:33:43.000 So, that's our announced lineup.
00:33:47.000 And like I said, we've got two mystery speakers.
00:33:50.000 They are high caliber, they are impressive.
00:33:54.000 We will be announcing one of those speakers this week, so stay tuned on the show.
00:33:59.000 I think you're really going to like it.
00:34:02.000 I'll give you a little hint.
00:34:04.000 They're both anti-immigration, sort of what they're known for.
00:34:08.000 So we've got two government officials joining us.
00:34:13.000 I don't want to get too specific.
00:34:14.000 I really want to tell you, but I can't.
00:34:17.000 One of them you'll see at AFPAC 3.
00:34:18.000 We want to have a little bit of mystery, but one of them we'll be announcing this week.
00:34:23.000 And if everything works out, we should be adding to that lineup later this week.
00:34:31.000 So it's very exciting.
00:34:32.000 Our special guests you could check out on Gab, but we've got all your favorites.
00:34:37.000 A lot of the streamers here from Cozy will be there.
00:34:41.000 We've got Jayden, Dalton is now confirmed, Kai, Wurzelroot, we've got Patrick Holley, we've got Jared Taylor, Peter Brimelow, we've got Lance Videos, okay, if you could believe it.

00:35:09.000 A gathering like this has just simply never happened.
00:35:12.000 A coalition this broad and this deep has never happened.
00:35:16.000 We're rolling a thousand deep at this conference, and it's everybody who's anybody
00:35:22.000 And the America First Movement is going to be there.
00:35:24.000 Michelle, of course, how could I forget?

00:35:28.000 She will be there.
00:35:29.000 And there may be some other people returning from last year also.
00:35:34.000 So it's gonna be a great time.
00:35:36.000 Remember, get your tickets at afpac.events.
00:35:39.000 We have a limited amount of tickets left.
00:35:42.000 I told you last week we opened it up once again with a limited amount of new tickets for sale, so...
00:35:49.000 Got to get them while you can.
00:35:51.000 I don't know how much longer they'll last.
00:35:54.000 Conferences in 10 days anyway, so I mean there's really just not much time So if you still want to go make sure you get them we open them up just for you But it's it's gonna be a big party.
00:36:04.000 Okay, gonna be a thousand plus people at this event catered dinner speeches If you get the reception or if you got the reception ticket You'll have a reception get a chance to mingle with me and the guests and speakers all around.

00:36:20.000 So Make sure to check that out, too.
00:36:24.000 Okay
00:36:26.000 Okay, okay.
00:36:26.000 So that's that.
00:36:28.000 And we'll get on with the show.
00:36:29.000 We'll get on into our topics for tonight.
00:36:32.000 I don't know if you noticed, but I got rid of my mustache over the weekend. 1.00
00:36:39.000 Gotta clean it up before AfPak. 1.00
00:36:41.000 It is what it is. 1.00
00:36:42.000 I wasn't happy to see it go, but, you know, I have to have a clean-cut presentation.
00:36:47.000 That's what everybody expects from me.
00:36:51.000 Societal norms. 0.99
00:36:53.000 If I become known as the guy with the mustache, you know, everyone's gonna go with the usual crap. 1.00
00:36:58.000 You know, you look like a porn star, you look gay, you look like a cop, you look like a... It's like, how about I look like a man with a mustache, okay? 1.00
00:37:08.000 So, I may bring it back after Act Pack 3, I don't know.
00:37:12.000 But, you know, there's just this real stigma to having a mustache.
00:37:15.000 It just isn't right.
00:37:16.000 Honestly, it's almost a cloaked form of racial hatred, in my opinion.
00:37:22.000 Like, when people give me these kinds of comments about my mustache, that's, it's the same sort of thing as like when that announcer called that basketball player a nappy-headed, you know, whatever.
00:37:34.000 Or, it's like when black women get offended when white women want to touch their hair. 1.00
00:37:39.000 Can I touch your hair?
00:37:40.000 Wow, your hair is amazing!
00:37:42.000 Same thing.
00:37:43.000 You know, look, I'm Italian.
00:37:45.000 I'm Mexican. 0.94
00:37:45.000 We have mustaches, okay? 0.94
00:37:49.000 It goes with the look.
00:37:50.000 It's just not right, okay?
00:37:52.000 It's not right for us to be chastised in this way.
00:37:55.000 And like I said, I think there's a racial animus there.
00:37:58.000 I'm not gonna lie.
00:37:59.000 I think it's, honestly, it's just this racism that is just trying to get out.
00:38:04.000 You know, I think they're just trying to say something about me as a Mexican-American, as an Italian-American.
00:38:11.000 I think that's what that is.
00:38:12.000 You know, they see me with my fro,
00:38:15.000 You know, they see me with my frizzy hair.
00:38:18.000 They see me with my olive complexion.
00:38:22.000 And my stark features, my thick eyebrows, bushy eyebrows, and the mustache, and I go, look at this greaseball. 1.00
00:38:29.000 Look at this wetback. 1.00
00:38:31.000 Like, I think that when you say that about my mustache, what you're really calling me is a Dago, okay? 1.00
00:38:37.000 That's what you're thinking.
00:38:39.000 What you're thinking is you're calling me a wetback in your mind.
00:38:42.000 I see right through it. 0.96
00:38:43.000 This country is racist. 0.74
00:38:45.000 So, anyway. 0.96
00:38:49.000 Maybe that's just me.
00:38:50.000 Maybe I'm just reading too much into it.
00:38:52.000 Maybe I'm just overly sensitive.
00:38:54.000 But that's kind of what I'm getting when you talk to me like that.
00:38:58.000 I'm just going to say that.
00:39:03.000 Anyway, so we had to go clean cut.
00:39:08.000 Even my parents are like, good!
00:39:12.000 I was hanging out with my parents.
00:39:14.000 I shaved my mustache.
00:39:16.000 And I'm like, hey!
00:39:20.000 And, uh, they're like, hey, how's it going?
00:39:22.000 I'm like, hey, notice anything different?
00:39:26.000 They're like, no.
00:39:26.000 I'm like, mom, I shaved my mustache.
00:39:29.000 You didn't notice?
00:39:30.000 She's like, oh my gosh, no, I didn't even notice you shaved your mustache. 0.95
00:39:36.000 Like, what the heck, mom? 0.99
00:39:38.000 Now I know how girls feel. 1.00
00:39:40.000 You know when girls do something to their hair and then they, uh, they get all... 1.00
00:39:44.000 Pissed off you don't say something about it. 0.98
00:39:46.000 Not that I would know, but you know, I like to see that on TV sometimes.
00:39:50.000 That's how I, that's sort of how I feel.
00:39:52.000 It's like, wow, you really just don't even care about me.
00:39:55.000 Didn't even notice I shaved my mustache.
00:39:57.000 What the heck is that?
00:39:58.000 Same with my dad!
00:40:01.000 My dad comes home from work, and I'm like, hey, by the way, did you notice I shaved my mustache?
00:40:08.000 No, I didn't actually.
00:40:09.000 I guess I hated it so much.
00:40:11.000 Like, really man?
00:40:13.000 You had a mustache!
00:40:16.000 Well, that was the 70s.
00:40:17.000 Okay.
00:40:18.000 Well, so what?
00:40:19.000 What does that even... So what?
00:40:20.000 This is the current year?
00:40:21.000 You can't have a mustache?
00:40:22.000 Anyway.
00:40:27.000 So, you know, you really, you just, you try so hard.
00:40:29.000 You try so hard to make an impression, you know.
00:40:32.000 Would it kill someone to say, hey Nick, you look good.
00:40:35.000 Hey Nick, you look really beautiful today.
00:40:38.000 You look really handsome today.
00:40:40.000 Would it kill ya to give me a little compliment before I go to the big AFPAC, mom?
00:40:48.000 Can you tell me I look good before I go to AFPAC?
00:40:52.000 Jeez.
00:40:56.000 I'm going to be sitting outside the hotel on the curb in the parking lot, you know, with my tie loosened, in my suit.
00:41:05.000 Someone's going to come out and say, hey, hey Nick, what's wrong?
00:41:09.000 Nothing.
00:41:11.000 Nothing! 1.00
00:41:12.000 My stupid parents didn't even care I shaved my mustache. 1.00
00:41:20.000 Who's that going to be, huh? 1.00
00:41:22.000 Who's that going to be?
00:41:22.000 Is that going to be Cathy Ju?
00:41:25.000 You know?
00:41:27.000 Maybe Kathy's you. 0.98
00:41:29.000 She pulls up her dress and she runs out on her heels. 0.99
00:41:32.000 Oh my gosh, Nick, what's wrong?
00:41:34.000 Everyone's expecting you in there.
00:41:36.000 We were waiting for your big speech.
00:41:39.000 Oh, what's the use?
00:41:40.000 No one even cares that I shaved my mustache. 1.00
00:41:44.000 I look like shit. 0.99
00:41:46.000 Everyone's like, wait, Kathy, I didn't know you were here. 0.99
00:41:48.000 Oh my gosh, so good to see you.
00:41:51.000 Oh, I don't know.
00:41:54.000 I can't do it.
00:41:57.000 But then, you know, she's gonna, but then she's gonna whip me into shape. 0.99
00:42:01.000 She's gonna say, she's gonna give me that mermaid magic. 1.00
00:42:07.000 She's gonna give me that mermaid magic like in the Spongebob movie. 1.00
00:42:15.000 She's gonna give me the mermaid magic and throw a little, she'll give me the mustache back. 1.00
00:42:26.000 All right, all right.
00:42:29.000 Let's move on. 0.99
00:42:33.000 Mermaid magic. 0.98
00:42:36.000 Oh, that's a good one.
00:42:40.000 And then I'll go in, I'll rock out the show.
00:42:43.000 Go into the aft pack and rock out.
00:42:52.000 That's funny.
00:42:52.000 Okay.
00:42:55.000 All right, that was fun.
00:42:58.000 Anyway, so let's get on with the show.
00:43:03.000 Listen, it's Valentine's Day!
00:43:05.000 It's really, it's Incel Day, okay?
00:43:07.000 It's total Incel Day.
00:43:09.000 Elliot Rodger, First Memorial, Incel Day, February 14, 2022.
00:43:17.000 Happy I Day to everybody.
00:43:20.000 Everybody out there, excuse me, who is incel. 0.80
00:43:25.000 You know, reclusive, sort of gamer, sigma, racist. 0.89
00:43:32.000 Like me.
00:43:34.000 You know, big big shout out, big big happy incel day to you.
00:43:37.000 We appreciate you.
00:43:39.000 You know, happy Valentine's Day or whatever, all the married people, all the, you know, people with girlfriends and everything.
00:43:44.000 Happy Valentine's Day!
00:43:46.000 Hope it's really great.
00:43:47.000 I hope it's really awesome for you.
00:43:49.000 Happy incel day though to all my bros.
00:43:51.000 Happy incel day to my niggas and my zoomers and my gamers. 0.87
00:43:58.000 Happy Incel Day! 0.92
00:44:00.000 Jugheads, I see Jimbo in there, and Frenrios, and Clodheads, who I also see in chat.
00:44:09.000 You know, big happy iDay for you.
00:44:11.000 I'll get you, for Incel Day, I'm going to get you a box of ammunition and pizza, and I'll give you a 14-inch pizza.
00:44:23.000 That's it.
00:44:24.000 Happy Incel Day!
00:44:26.000 So, not for violence!
00:44:28.000 For aesthetic purposes and self-defense.
00:44:31.000 So, Vatards, I see Veda in there as well.
00:44:34.000 Happy I Day.
00:44:35.000 Beardson Beardly.
00:44:36.000 UX!
00:44:37.000 Yo! 1.00
00:44:37.000 UX in chat. 1.00
00:44:39.000 Big shoutout to UX.
00:44:41.000 We missed you last night.
00:44:42.000 Veda sometimes is the only one streaming and then we're forced to watch him, you know, so.
00:44:48.000 Hey, good to see a UX.
00:44:50.000 I don't see Beardson in there, but you know, he sometimes calls himself an incel.
00:44:53.000 It's, you know, widely disputed, but that's okay.
00:44:56.000 It's incel day, so... Happy I Day for everybody!
00:45:01.000 Maybe that's why I'm thinking about, you know, Cathy Xu.
00:45:05.000 It's incel day and my mom wouldn't even notice that I shaved my mustache.
00:45:08.000 I mean, what the hell is that, right?
00:45:10.000 What the hell is that?
00:45:12.000 Happy Incel Day to you too, Mom. 0.91
00:45:14.000 You made it a perfec- You know, good morning, Mom.
00:45:17.000 Happy Incel Day.
00:45:18.000 You didn't even call me handsome today.
00:45:20.000 Not even my mom!
00:45:22.000 No.
00:45:23.000 But yeah, there's something to that.
00:45:26.000 So anyway.
00:45:27.000 Yo, Yoba! 0.80
00:45:28.000 Yoba's not an incel.
00:45:29.000 He's Chad. 1.00
00:45:30.000 He's slaying.
00:45:31.000 Yeah, happy Incel Day, Chad.
00:45:34.000 Happy Valentine's Day, Chad, Alaska.
00:45:38.000 With all his girls.
00:45:41.000 Anyway.
00:45:42.000 Okay, so let's really get into the show.
00:45:45.000 So like I said, tonight I wanted to talk about the mini-documentary.
00:45:51.000 I also wanted to talk about the Louis Theroux documentary.
00:45:55.000 I've already been streaming for 45 minutes, so I'll talk for as long as I can, maybe half hour, 45 minutes here.
00:46:02.000 So first I want to talk about the mini documentary you just saw.
00:46:06.000 So, like I said, hope you enjoyed.
00:46:08.000 That was episodes 1 and 2.
00:46:11.000 We've got some plans for that.
00:46:12.000 I think we're going to produce maybe another episode.
00:46:16.000 So we'll see about that and I'll let you know about that.
00:46:19.000 And it may become a bigger project, so... We'll see where that goes.
00:46:24.000 But, you know, I think it's really important that we made that documentary like with the first one.
00:46:30.000 I don't think so.
00:47:00.000 About me, about America First, about the persecution issue, the censorship in general.
00:47:07.000 And you could send that to any person.
00:47:11.000 I mean, probably would make more sense, any person on the right wing, any conservative.
00:47:16.000 And I think that they would be sympathetic to what we're doing.
00:47:19.000 And I think it allows people to look at me in a little bit of a different way, which is to say that
00:47:25.000 You know, this show is very raunchy, this show is very edgy and offensive sometimes, and we'll get into that even with the Louis documentary a little bit more.
00:47:34.000 This show is sometimes totally off the rails.
00:47:37.000 But that being said, there is a target audience.
00:47:40.000 You know, my target audience is
00:47:42.000 It's young people, and young people have a very specific sense of humor.
00:47:46.000 You know, I'm a young person myself.
00:47:49.000 And so the product that I'm creating, like any product in media, it has to have a target audience.
00:47:55.000 I can't watch Sean Handy.
00:47:58.000 I just can't. 0.99
00:47:59.000 Number one, he's a traitor, and I could get into reasons why later if someone has a super chat about that, but he's a traitor.
00:48:06.000 Number two, that format just doesn't work for me. 0.74
00:48:12.000 Me as a 23 year old guy, I just can't sit through that show every Monday through Friday.
00:48:19.000 And older people can.
00:48:20.000 You know, it's really for older people.
00:48:23.000 This show is meant for teenagers and people in college.
00:48:26.000 I'm speaking their language, I have their sense of humor, right?
00:48:29.000 It's dark, it's edgy, all of that.
00:48:32.000 And there's a lot of people that really can't wrap their heads around that.
00:48:35.000 It's a little bit tricky for them.
00:48:37.000 Some people, you know, willfully don't like it.
00:48:40.000 Some people are just very sensitive.
00:48:42.000 I don't know.
00:49:12.000 23-year-old, college dropout, doing the show in my family home.
00:49:17.000 And by the way, everybody says, oh, he lives in his parents' basement.
00:49:20.000 I don't live in the basement.
00:49:21.000 I live in the house, okay?
00:49:23.000 I do my show in the basement, but I very much live in the house with the family, okay?
00:49:31.000 You know, but people say that it has a certain connotation.
00:49:34.000 He lives in his mom's basement.
00:49:36.000 Well yeah, my mom lives here.
00:49:37.000 My dad owns the house, okay?
00:49:39.000 My dad lives here too, okay?
00:49:42.000 I'm a 23 year old man.
00:49:44.000 Everyone else my age moved back in with their parents after college.
00:49:47.000 It's not that weird.
00:49:49.000 Anyway...
00:49:52.000 But point being is it's not what people think when people come up with this caricature of me as like some kind of villain or a terrorist or a hate monger you know like like it was said in the documentary or some other thing.
00:50:09.000 It's like I'm really just a young guy doing this, doing this show, yet expressing my political views with no institutional backing, with no sponsors, I'm not paid by anybody, I don't have a boss, and it's a result of just strictly the things that I say that I've been targeted to such an extent by the most powerful institutions in the world.
00:50:31.000 And you know, to me, that's a very compelling story.
00:50:35.000 Because of the asymmetry at work.
00:50:37.000 I think that's really, it's the contrast which is so interesting.
00:50:41.000 Because you could see Donald Trump doing battle with Twitter.
00:50:45.000 You know, or Donald Trump doing battle with the administration.
00:50:49.000 Because he's the former president.
00:50:51.000 Or you could see some other politician, or Tucker Carlson.
00:50:55.000 Maybe he's there in Congress, or he's the main guy on Fox News, but here I am.
00:51:02.000 I mean with no backing, with really no big benefactor, no patron, no nothing.
00:51:08.000 I'm just a guy with a show.
00:51:10.000 I'm just a live streamer and young too.
00:51:14.000 And I'm doing battle with Bank of America, the FBI, the DOJ, the TSA, you know, the government, the private sector.
00:51:23.000 It's a David and Goliath story.
00:51:24.000 It's a very compelling story.
00:51:26.000 And that frame at the end where it says, you know, all the things that have happened to me, it's even mind-blowing to me, all the things that have happened to me.
00:51:33.000 And again, I mean, you would think based on that story, you would think strictly just based on what has happened, you know, people might say, oh, well, what did you do?
00:51:42.000 It's like nothing!
00:51:43.000 That's sort of the whole point.
00:51:46.000 We're good to go!
00:52:11.000 No person blacklisted like I'm a ghost and for nothing that's a really compelling story to tell people and I think it's very sympathetic and ultimately it I don't say these things like um you know we've got to make this compelling story it is a compelling story it is a David and Goliath fight it's what it is
00:52:33.000 And if it seems sympathetic, that's because it is a very sympathetic struggle.
00:52:38.000 And it honestly is wild to me that so much of the population wouldn't be on board with that.
00:52:44.000 And when I say that, I'm talking particularly about liberals.
00:52:48.000 Because liberals claim to be the champion of the oppressed, and the little guy, and all that kind of stuff.
00:52:56.000 And in this instance, in my particular case, but also broadly in the country and in the world, they're on the side of power.
00:53:05.000 They're on the side of the Leviathan.
00:53:08.000 You know, when Bank of America, super powerful, too-big-to-fail bank, bans me from their services, they're cheering on the bank, you know?
00:53:20.000 And when the FBI is persecuting me and other
00:53:23.000 Just honest, conservative, political activists.
00:53:27.000 The left is cheering them on, the FBI.
00:53:30.000 And same with the DOJ and the TSA.
00:53:32.000 20 years ago, an institution like the ACLU would defend somebody who was on the no-fly list. 0.68
00:53:38.000 But that was back when there was Muslims being targeted. 0.88
00:53:41.000 Now that it's white guys, they don't care. 0.98
00:53:44.000 Now that it's white guys, they have no interest in representing me. 0.97
00:53:48.000 So... 0.73
00:53:49.000 So I think that making things like that is very important and I hope you enjoyed at the end it was I think the ending really brought it all together really tied it together when it showed some of these clips from the rallies and there was some stuff in there about like Martin Luther King jr.
00:54:05.000 and Malcolm X
00:54:09.000 Like I said, we're going for a universal, hey, we're going for a broad, universal appeal here.
00:54:16.000 Because I knew, you know, MLK comes on the screen and the whole live chat lights up and says, FMLK!
00:54:23.000 NJM is better than MLK! 0.95
00:54:26.000 And I agree with you there. 0.98
00:54:29.000 But there's no harm in sort of throwing that out there.
00:54:32.000 And you know, some of these boomers can go, yeah, just like Martin Luther King Jr., that hero.
00:54:40.000 Right.
00:54:40.000 So that was episodes 1 and 2 of the mini-documentary.
00:54:48.000 And, you know, just to answer maybe an obvious question, there's still been no movement on that.
00:54:53.000 As of today, I am still on the no-fly list.
00:54:57.000 I don't know.
00:55:12.000 We're good to go!
00:55:42.000 So that's that.
00:55:43.000 Now I want to get on to the Louis Theroux documentary, which is I think what everybody wanted to see tonight.
00:55:48.000 Excuse me.
00:55:49.000 And I will pull it up on Gab here for you to see some of the clips.
00:55:54.000 I want to watch some of them with you.
00:55:56.000 Some of the best ones.
00:55:58.000 So let me get my headset out real quick and we'll go through them because I know people were just dying to see it.
00:56:08.000 So let's see, do I have it?
00:56:10.000 Okay.
00:56:11.000 So here we are.
00:56:12.000 Here's my GAAB profile.
00:56:15.000 And we'll go through.
00:56:17.000 So, in case you don't know, the other day there was a... Well, let me just tell the whole story.
00:56:25.000 So, let me switch back over here to do that.
00:56:29.000 We don't need to be here.
00:56:31.000 So about two years ago, this was, I think, in Spring 2020.
00:56:31.000 Okay.
00:56:40.000 Now mind you, this was right after the MTV documentary came out.
00:56:43.000 If you don't remember that story, I'll go over that briefly just to set the stage.
00:56:48.000 So we have to go way back, okay?
00:56:51.000 So back in February, because it's important, it's important to tell the full story here on the documentaries.
00:56:58.000 And honestly, I think this will give you a good idea of how the press operates.
00:57:04.000 This is very important for anybody to understand.
00:57:07.000 This is important
00:57:09.000 To understand politics?
00:57:11.000 In order to understand politics, you need to understand the role that media plays, and how media operates, and what kind of people are in media.
00:57:20.000 It's very important.
00:57:21.000 And also, particularly for dissidents, it is important for this message to be here.
00:57:26.000 And I uniquely have a very intimate history here with the media.
00:57:30.000 So, this was four years ago now.
00:57:34.000 Back in February 2018, MTV reached out to me.
00:57:39.000 We're good to go!
00:58:02.000 And so I got an email from a producer at MTV and they said, hey, we want to do a reboot of this show with an episode about you.
00:58:11.000 And they said the episode is going to be about young political people, young political influencers.
00:58:17.000 And they said, so we want to make a true life episode and part of it will be about your life as a right wing influencer and then we'll do half the show about a left wing political influencer.
00:58:28.000 Now, initially, I got that email.
00:58:30.000 It's a Jewish producer.
00:58:31.000 It's MTV.
00:58:33.000 They want to do a show about my life and what a cool life I have.
00:58:39.000 I said, yeah, I don't think so.
00:58:41.000 I said, yeah, not interesting.
00:58:43.000 And they were persistent.
00:58:44.000 They kept emailing and calling and they kept sweetening the deal.
00:58:48.000 They said, well, you can have control over what's in it.
00:58:50.000 You can film it yourself.
00:58:52.000 You could do that.
00:58:52.000 You could do this.
00:58:54.000 And so eventually I said, you know what?
00:58:56.000 If you're giving me all these assurances, you know, we'll give it a shot.
00:59:01.000 And so part of this was that they sent somebody out to do a preliminary interview and I could meet the producer and get a sort of feel for them and then decide if we were going to proceed.
00:59:12.000 So they flew their guy out, he met me, he met my family and everything.
00:59:17.000 And you know it felt okay, very nice guy, he brought the film crew with, we met all of them, it was fine.
00:59:22.000 And so they came over and they shot for a whole week in my house.
00:59:27.000 We're good to go!
00:59:44.000 We're good to go!
01:00:04.000 You know, my mom, like, baked them cookies and we had dinner with them and it was, uh, you know, we thought that they were who they said they were. 0.97
01:00:11.000 Very foolish of us. 0.92
01:00:13.000 But it's a first experience. 0.99
01:00:15.000 And you know what?
01:00:16.000 I assumed that even if it was going to be a hit piece, even if it was going to be negative, at least it'd be publicity.
01:00:21.000 I thought it'd be free publicity in any case. 0.99
01:00:24.000 I was under no impression that they were going to do a great, nice episode about me, but I thought, you know, it might have some slant or something.
01:00:32.000 Anyway.
01:00:34.000 So then we said, hey, you know, when's this thing gonna air?
01:00:36.000 And they said, well, it'll air probably in March.
01:00:39.000 So this was February 2018.
01:00:40.000 They said March 2018.
01:00:43.000 So the premiere date rolled around.
01:00:44.000 We said, hey, so when's it gonna air again?
01:00:47.000 They said, oh, well, actually we're gonna do it in June.
01:00:49.000 Okay?
01:00:51.000 June rolls around.
01:00:52.000 We emailed them, hey, what's going on?
01:00:54.000 They said, well, we're shelving the project indefinitely, and we may air it sometime in the future.
01:01:00.000 And then we got mad.
01:01:00.000 We're like, okay, so what's going on here?
01:01:02.000 I mean, you come over here, you shoot for a week, you get all this footage.
01:01:06.000 Now what?
01:01:07.000 You're not gonna shoot it?
01:01:07.000 I mean, that was a massive inconvenience.
01:01:11.000 Then they just stopped responding.
01:01:13.000 Fast forward to Groyper War, which is a whole year later.
01:01:19.000 This is in 2019.
01:01:19.000 This is a year and a half later.
01:01:22.000 This is in the fall of 2019.
01:01:24.000 I'm at the peak of my fame.
01:01:27.000 You know, we got Don Jr.
01:01:28.000 booed out of his event at UCLA, and they're writing about me in the Washington Post, and they're talking about me everywhere, and then it turns out that they took the footage that they shot for True Life and they repackaged it into a hit piece about white supremacy and terrorism
01:01:48.000 And so then they aired it in December 2019 which is close to two years after they shot it and it wasn't an episode of True Life about how I make my bed in the morning and you know and how I do my show and where I like to go get a burger.
01:02:01.000 It turned into a 10-minute segment in a bigger hit piece about like the KKK and Neo-Nazis and I sit down with a KKK guy and he tells me how everything you're saying is what we said back in the 90s.
01:02:17.000 And I published all this back in December 2019.
01:02:19.000 I said, here's the emails we got, here's their names, this is the kind of stuff they put us through, you know, so they basically just straight-up lied.
01:02:26.000 I mean, they lied to our faces for weeks and weeks and weeks.
01:02:30.000 They lied, you know, and we should have got it in writing, but you know, we're not lawyers here.
01:02:35.000 I was 19, 18 years old at the time.
01:02:41.000 You know, so they lied to us about all the accommodations they would make, they lied to us about who they were, the project they were working on, the whole deal.
01:02:49.000 And, you know, came in everyday with a smile on their face, lying to us, knowing full well what they were doing, which was basically, it was like a honeypot. 0.66
01:03:00.000 You know, coming in, getting my smiling face, and then plastering me all over their network in hit piece about how I'm a hateful Nazi terrorist, all this kind of stuff. 0.99
01:03:09.000 Which, you know, I don't really care who you are or what you think about me, but that's just fucked up, you know? 0.98
01:03:14.000 I mean, I have my views. 0.96
01:03:16.000 I understand people in Hollywood are liberal and they would disagree.
01:03:21.000 But that's just wrong.
01:03:22.000 It's dishonorable.
01:03:23.000 It's dishonest.
01:03:25.000 I would never do something like that.
01:03:27.000 You know, even though I am right-wing and even though I perceive the left as our political enemies and I vehemently disagree with them, I would never do something like that.
01:03:37.000 I don't think I could do something like that because I'm just fundamentally not a dishonest person.
01:03:44.000 And I understand you might tell a white lie, I understand you might tell a fib, you might try to do some kind of operation, but to go in for weeks and weeks and take advantage of somebody's hospitality and their kindness and their friendliness and all of that, and then to reciprocate it but be faking it, and your whole plan is to destroy those people?
01:04:06.000 It's just, it's just wrong.
01:04:09.000 We're good to go.
01:04:27.000 I don't think so. 0.99
01:04:45.000 Is there just scum like that and I think any famous person knows that there is just no and it's been like that forever But there's no integrity. 0.99
01:04:55.000 There is no they have no compunction No scruples about how to get there not even the truth Not the story not the scoop but their angle 0.99
01:05:08.000 And that particularly makes it wrong.
01:05:10.000 It would be one thing if you were going in there to shed light on an issue and cover something, but that's not what they did.
01:05:19.000 They lied under false pretenses to capture a particular angle, which is, this guy is evil.
01:05:26.000 Not, here's who he is, judge for yourself.
01:05:28.000 No.
01:05:29.000 Scary music, scary lighting, dark lighting, and they would even tell me that.
01:05:32.000 I remember we were in the studio where I do my show,
01:05:37.000 Why would we do that?
01:05:54.000 He goes, you know, well, we just want to get sort of like a dynamic sort of feel, you know?
01:05:58.000 It's just sort of like a film thing, you know?
01:06:01.000 We want to just change it up a little bit.
01:06:03.000 It's better if the shots are dynamic, you know?
01:06:05.000 One shot you're here, one shot you're sitting there, the lighting's like this, the lighting's like that.
01:06:11.000 Now, earlier in the process, they said they wanted to get it as close to real life as possible.
01:06:15.000 They said they just wanted to be a fly on the wall and, you know, shoot my life.
01:06:19.000 I said, okay. 0.69
01:06:22.000 I said well I don't do this in the dark.
01:06:25.000 I said I'm not a bug.
01:06:26.000 I said I do it in the light.
01:06:27.000 I have the lights on.
01:06:29.000 I'm not sitting in the dark with a red light on my face.
01:06:33.000 I said that's not very realistic.
01:06:34.000 I said so we're not going to do that.
01:06:37.000 And that's a perfect example of, you know, why else would you do that other than you're visually trying to make someone look evil?
01:06:43.000 That's not telling the truth.
01:06:45.000 You're making a film.
01:06:46.000 You're telling a story that you created in your mind, you know?
01:06:51.000 You're creating an angle. 0.61
01:06:53.000 Um, and that's just one example of how, you know, this, oh, we just want to get another angle, so that we can repackage it for our hate speech documentary, so we have it in our back pocket in case you ever blow up, and then we can make you look like a terrorist and ruin your life.
01:07:08.000 Like, that's what journalists do.
01:07:11.000 So anyway, I exposed them for that.
01:07:13.000 I went on my Twitter and I put them on blast.
01:07:16.000 And I posted the email... all of this I have the receipts for.
01:07:20.000 I have it all documented.
01:07:21.000 I posted all of this on Twitter. 1.00
01:07:23.000 And I said, like, this is just like the level of... they're just scumbags, you know? 0.98
01:07:29.000 And like I said, any famous person will tell you who has to deal with the paparazzi or the press. 0.98
01:07:35.000 That's how they are.
01:07:36.000 You know, they'll show up to your house at 3 a.m.
01:07:38.000 taking pictures.
01:07:39.000 They'll make up stories about you.
01:07:41.000 It doesn't matter who you are.
01:07:42.000 A YouTuber, a musical artist, a TikToker, an e-celeb, an actor.
01:07:47.000 Doesn't matter.
01:07:49.000 And a right-wing person.
01:07:50.000 The media, that's just how they operate. 0.97
01:07:52.000 They're dirtbags. 0.97
01:07:53.000 Anyway.
01:07:55.000 So the reason I bring that up is to set the stage because you know then a lot of people are skeptical of why I participated in this documentary.
01:08:03.000 You know, a year ago I did a shoot with Louis Theroux from the BBC.
01:08:07.000 He's a big, famous British documentarian.
01:08:10.000 And people knew I was participating in this project and they said, well, why would you do that?
01:08:14.000 Don't you know it's going to be a hit piece?
01:08:16.000 Don't you know they'll make you look bad?
01:08:18.000 I bring up the MTV thing to kind of set the stage and to say, you know, it's not like I was under any illusions about what they're capable of and who they are and what they're about.
01:08:28.000 I went into it knowing full well.
01:08:30.000 And I got the same thing.
01:08:33.000 From Louie Theroux.
01:08:54.000 We're good to go!
01:09:15.000 We're good to go.
01:09:36.000 We want to cover you as a young person who's online.
01:09:38.000 We want to cover you as a young person who's online.
01:09:40.000 We want to cover you as a young person who's online.
01:10:01.000 Okay, that's my fly out to Chicago, you know, they buy me lunch.
01:10:06.000 This is I think Maybe before or a little bit after the pandemic.
01:10:11.000 This is spring 2020 spring or winter 2020 and I go.
01:10:16.000 Yeah, you know, they flew all the way from the UK.
01:10:18.000 I said, yeah, I'll let you know they fly back then they go You know what like we have to postpone this because of the pandemic.
01:10:24.000 Okay, and
01:10:25.000 Then after, you know, things start to loosen up in 2021, they say, hey, we want to pick this up again.
01:10:30.000 We want to cover AFPAC.
01:10:31.000 So I said, OK.
01:10:33.000 And we signed something that said they couldn't film anybody at the conference.
01:10:37.000 They couldn't show anybody's faces, just the people that agreed to be on there.
01:10:41.000 So, you know, that was never a concern.
01:10:44.000 They said they wanted to come and cover the conference and sort of my preparation for it and everything.
01:10:49.000 Yeah, sure.
01:10:57.000 I just been banned from everything.
01:10:59.000 I've been banned from DLive, Facebook, Instagram, all my payment processors, and I thought I was going to lose my Twitter imminently too.
01:11:08.000 And so the thought process in 2021 was actually a lot different than it was before because the conventional wisdom was you don't want to participate in hit pieces, you don't want to give a comment to a journalist, not because they're going to use it as a hit piece.
01:11:23.000 Hit pieces can often be good publicity.
01:11:26.000 That was always my thought process was.
01:11:37.000 I never liked press up until 2021, because prior to censorship reaching its end stage, I thought that any noise, any attention, is just going to increase the odds that I'm going to get censored.
01:11:52.000 Is DLive going to pull the plug?
01:11:54.000 Is Twitter going to pull the plug?
01:11:56.000 Are one of my other social media, is that going to get enough traction, make a big enough splash?
01:12:01.000 Are they going to be able to use what I say in the ADL?
01:12:05.000 We're good to go.
01:12:20.000 We're good to go.
01:12:48.000 And so I thought, you know, we're going to have to change our strategy here.
01:12:52.000 And one of the ways that we're going to have to reach a mainstream audience is by working through the media.
01:12:58.000 It's not ideal.
01:12:59.000 I don't like it.
01:13:01.000 Obviously, they've got a bias and a narrative.
01:13:03.000 But, you know, the effective hit piece is this.
01:13:07.000 People that already don't like us will continue to dislike us.
01:13:11.000 People that would probably dislike us if they watch my show will now dislike me.
01:13:17.000 But on the flip side, people that may be curious or sympathetic will watch it and they'll check out my show.
01:13:27.000 We're not going to lose anybody doing this.
01:13:51.000 But the upside is great, which is publicity, which is hard to come by, and also, it's going to be content from my audience, and if there's even 1% of the audience is going to be curious and check out my show, it's going to result in a spike in viewership and volume and everything else.
01:14:08.000 So I said, okay, let's do it.
01:14:11.000 So I came to AFPAC, like I said, we signed papers that said they couldn't put people who didn't want to be filmed on their documentary,
01:14:20.000 I know some people were concerned trolling me about that.
01:14:23.000 They were saying, oh Louis Theroux is going to dox everybody at the event.
01:14:28.000 They were never going to do that.
01:14:29.000 They wouldn't be able to do that.
01:14:32.000 So they came out to Orlando, they shot the conference, and then they shot some other people.
01:14:38.000 They came over to Chicago, they did some stuff with me back in May.
01:14:44.000 And throughout the whole thing they were saying, oh, you know, we're just trying to cover you, but very quickly it was obvious what they were doing.
01:14:52.000 You know, like I said, despite their assurances that it wasn't going to be a hit piece, the entire thing was just this interrogation.
01:14:59.000 You know, Louis comes out and it's, you're a white nationalist. 0.85
01:15:02.000 You're a white nationalist. 0.97
01:15:03.000 Tell me you're a white nationalist. 0.69
01:15:04.000 Why are you a white nationalist?
01:15:06.000 And, you know, it's so funny.
01:15:09.000 We did so much footage and so little of the footage that they collected of me even made it to the documentary.
01:15:16.000 Because we talked about everything.
01:15:18.000 We talked about, I believe, the no-fly list.
01:15:21.000 We talked about Julian Assange.
01:15:24.000 We talked about the stolen election.
01:15:26.000 We talked about Stop the Steal.
01:15:27.000 I mean, we talked about a lot of stuff and very little of it made it into the documentary.
01:15:32.000 And it was all the line of questioning was always something like this, you know, they would bring up something I had said in the past on my show.
01:15:41.000 And I would clarify and say, well, you know, that was either a joke, which it obviously was, or I would explain, I would elaborate and say, well, what I meant by that was this, that, and the other thing.
01:15:52.000 And these are my views.
01:15:54.000 And then they would, and this was the pattern, they'd say, okay, well, two years ago you made this comment.
01:15:59.000 Can you explain yourself?
01:16:00.000 And I would say, yeah, yeah, well, that part was kidding, and this part was serious, and this is what I meant by that.
01:16:05.000 And then they'd say, okay, that's great, but I'm trying to summarize it so you're a white nationalist.
01:16:13.000 I'm not going to tell you I'm a white nationalist because I'm not.
01:16:18.000 I'm not going to tell you I'm a Nazi because I'm not.
01:16:20.000 I'm not going to tell you I'm this, that, and the other because I'm not.
01:16:23.000 I'm going to explain my views.
01:16:25.000 I'm going to tell you what I think.
01:16:27.000 But it was always, you know, it was always this gotcha. 1.00
01:16:30.000 It was always this, I'm gonna try and make you look stupid. 1.00
01:16:32.000 I'm gonna bring up this, that, or the other. 1.00
01:16:35.000 Try and throw you off balance.
01:16:37.000 And I would very deftly just explain myself, and he would go, okay, that's great, that's great.
01:16:42.000 It's a little long, isn't it?
01:16:44.000 Why don't you say that, you know, just say...
01:16:48.000 You know, I'm just not going to say that.
01:17:04.000 We're good to go.
01:17:20.000 You know, I think part of my likability is that I really am just a cards-on-the-table guy.
01:17:26.000 I do wear my heart on my sleeve, for better or for worse.
01:17:30.000 Sometimes it gets me in trouble, sometimes people think I'm weird or whatever, but I am just honest.
01:17:35.000 I couldn't do this show and not be honest.
01:17:38.000 I'm live every night for five years, every single weeknight.
01:17:44.000 You can't hide.
01:17:45.000 There's nowhere to hide.
01:17:46.000 Not only that, but every night I field any question from anybody with three bucks or more.
01:17:52.000 You know what I mean?
01:17:54.000 So when you talk extemporaneously for two, three hours a night, every weeknight for five years, and one or two of those hours is just getting any and every comment or question from anybody, there's nowhere to hide.
01:18:09.000 I couldn't do what I do if it was a carefully crafted persona.
01:18:14.000 It would slip at some point.
01:18:16.000 You know, just because I'm a human being.
01:18:18.000 I couldn't put on an act.
01:18:20.000 I couldn't put on some kind of comprehensive character.
01:18:24.000 It would be too much.
01:18:25.000 If I were some kind of big liar or some kind of phony, the contradictions and all of it would eventually catch up or slip or whatever.
01:18:35.000 I'm convinced you wouldn't be able... I don't think it's even possible.
01:18:39.000 We're good to go!
01:19:02.000 And to some extent, when that is not reciprocated, no matter who it is, it is disappointing.
01:19:07.000 Because I try to connect with people.
01:19:09.000 I tried.
01:19:09.000 I am a little bit naive in that sense.
01:19:12.000 Sometimes I am a little bit trusting.
01:19:14.000 I tend to assume people are telling the truth, which is, you really should assume the opposite.
01:19:19.000 So it was a little bit disappointing because, you know, I had some, there was some hope that they were who they said they were.
01:19:26.000 You know, there was a little part of me that thought,
01:19:29.000 Maybe this isn't just going to be a good documentary.
01:19:32.000 And they lied.
01:19:33.000 They told me it was going to be about Generation Z and this young person's thing and we just want to, you know, explore.
01:19:40.000 It's just really interesting what's going on on the internet.
01:19:42.000 And that's not what it was.
01:19:43.000 It was a hit piece.
01:19:45.000 Forbidden America. 0.99
01:19:46.000 Louis Theroux enters the dark underbelly of misogynist, antisemitic, racist, white America. 1.00
01:19:54.000 You're a liar. 1.00
01:20:03.000 I don't know if Louis ever... I guess he's a liar. 1.00
01:20:06.000 Maybe he just believes his own bullshit or something. 1.00
01:20:11.000 I mean, he's totally arrogant. 1.00
01:20:13.000 And I say that as someone who's narcissistic, but he's very arrogant. 0.99
01:20:16.000 And I hate to burst your bubble, you know, Hollywood, but I mean, you are arrogant. 0.97
01:20:20.000 So, you know, if any of the... I don't know if they're watching this, they're done with the project, but you all lied to me.
01:20:26.000 That's okay.
01:20:27.000 I knew you were lying.
01:20:28.000 I hoped you weren't, but I knew it was probably going to be the way it was.
01:20:32.000 It worked out for me anyway.
01:20:33.000 I mean, really, you helped me.
01:20:35.000 But it is disappointing, and shame on you.
01:20:38.000 Lying is wrong.
01:20:39.000 I'm a nice person.
01:20:40.000 I don't lie.
01:20:41.000 You can think whatever you want about me, but I'm not a liar, like you.
01:20:44.000 So, that's your problem.
01:20:46.000 But...
01:20:47.000 I was disappointed because they lied to me, and I was also disappointed because, you know, what we have going on here actually is very interesting.
01:20:54.000 It actually is a really interesting thing, and if you are an astute observer of the political scene, you understand that what's going on here is very significant, and you understand the gravity of what we're doing here.
01:21:09.000 And I think there is a way that you can show what's happening without being sympathetic,
01:21:16.000 I don't know.
01:21:28.000 2017 to now is extremely interesting.
01:21:30.000 And I am.
01:21:31.000 I love this stuff.
01:21:32.000 I'm passionate about this stuff.
01:21:34.000 Someone needs to make that documentary.
01:21:36.000 They did not make this documentary.
01:21:38.000 They made another popcorn tabloid hit piece, which is just... You know, I expected more because I thought Louis Theroux was like a serious filmmaker.
01:21:48.000 This is not a serious film.
01:21:50.000 It's well made, don't get me wrong.
01:21:51.000 It's professionally made. 1.00
01:21:53.000 I mean, this is just like a hit job for the fucking Jews. 1.00
01:22:06.000 This is a hit job for the powers that be, for lack of a better word. 1.00
01:22:11.000 Sorry, I know there's a lot of Jews in there and you can't say that, but it's a hit job for the powers that be. 0.93
01:22:16.000 It's a hit job for the elite, it's a hit job for the liberals, whatever you want to say, but it's just a drive-by hit job, which is just... 0.94
01:22:27.000 Is that really what you want your legacy to be, is just sort of being like smarmy at easy targets? 0.98
01:22:33.000 Westboro Baptist Church, you know, hillbillies, South Africans, you know, racist white people. 0.92
01:22:42.000 You know, when we die and we leave this world, the career, the money, all that stuff's gonna matter a lot less. 0.97
01:22:48.000 It's gonna matter more your, first and foremost, your integrity and your
01:22:53.000 We're good to go!
01:23:08.000 We're good to go.
