America First - Nicholas J. Fuentes - ANTI VAX REVOLT - Texas Judge BLOCKS United Vax Mandate | America First Ep. 895

00:00:02.000 Good evening, everybody.

00:00:03.000 You are watching America First.

00:00:05.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.

00:00:07.000 We have a great show for you tonight.

00:00:08.000 Very excited to be back with you here tonight on Wednesday.

00:00:12.000 We have a lot to talk about, a lot to get into tonight.

00:00:16.000 Our featured story is a big white pill.

00:00:19.000 We'll be talking more about the vaccine mandate, specifically following up on the Texas ban on vaccine mandates, which we covered yesterday.

00:00:29.000 Tonight, our featured story is about in Texas a federal judge has blocked. United Airlines from enforcing a COVID vax mandate on their employees.

00:00:41.000 So, about 600 United employees are about to be put on unpaid leave because they won't get the vaccine.

00:00:50.000 And the company, in spite of the Texas ban on vaccine mandates, is going forward with it anyway, nationwide.

00:00:57.000 And they're going to remove anybody that doesn't get the COVID vax.

00:01:01.000 So, a number of people that applied for exemptions at United Airlines sued the airline so that they couldn't go forward with it.

00:01:09.000 And now, a federal judge is putting an injunction on the vaccine mandate, allowing all of the people that requested an exemption to stay on while remaining not vaccinated.

00:01:21.000 And in the meantime, the federal judge in Texas will hear the case and ultimately make a decision on whether or not to uphold the vaccine mandate.

00:01:31.000 So it's a big white pill.

00:01:33.000 And I said yesterday, we'll have to wait and see how this plays out, not just the ban on vax mandates in Texas and Florida.

00:01:41.000 And I think there's one other state that has just elevated a vaccine mandate ban to the level of state law.

00:01:49.000 I don't know if that was Arkansas or I think it was a southern state.

00:01:53.000 But not just those, but also the court cases.

00:01:55.000 We'll have to see it play out in court.

00:01:58.000 So we'll talk about that.

00:01:59.000 That'll be our featured story.

00:02:00.000 Hopefully, a good outcome with that case.

00:02:03.000 We'll also be talking tonight about a walkout at Netflix.

00:02:07.000 And I don't know if you guys have been following this, but apparently, Dave Chappelle, who is a black comedian, if you don't know, He just did a comedy special for Netflix.

00:02:21.000 And I haven't watched it, I'm going to be honest with you, because I don't really think Dave Chappelle is all that funny.

00:02:26.000 But he did a brand new special for Netflix where apparently he makes jokes about transgender people.

00:02:33.000 And there's a big controversy about it.

00:02:35.000 And some people are defending Dave Chappelle, and other people say he went too far.

00:02:41.000 And it's more of the same.

00:02:43.000 But the news today is that in Netflix headquarters, there's a big walkout. 1.00

00:02:46.000 All of the transgender employees.

00:02:48.000 Employees that work at Netflix are walking out.

00:02:53.000 I think it's on October, I don't know what date it is.

00:02:56.000 I think it's October 20th, and protest that Netflix will not remove the special.

00:03:03.000 So we'll talk about that too.

00:03:05.000 Should be a pretty good show.

00:03:06.000 Honestly, it's kind of a slow news week.

00:03:08.000 I think I might do a more casual stream one of these days.

00:03:12.000 I'm going to be out of town this weekend, but maybe I'll do a casual stream tomorrow.

00:03:18.000 Well, tomorrow I got to get a haircut.

00:03:20.000 Maybe next week.

00:03:21.000 But yeah, I just feel like there's nothing going on in the news lately.

00:03:25.000 It's been a couple of weeks.

00:03:26.000 We have a big, obviously, we're on the new platform.

00:03:29.000 So, big launch of our beta test.

00:03:33.000 And there's nothing to cover.

00:03:34.000 There's nothing.

00:03:35.000 There's absolutely nothing going on.

00:03:39.000 Nothing in Congress.

00:03:41.000 No elections.

00:03:42.000 No foreign policy stuff.

00:03:44.000 No nothing.

00:03:45.000 It's boring.

00:03:47.000 Whatever.

00:03:48.000 But we'll talk about that.

00:03:49.000 And, you know, we're going to make the best of it.

00:03:51.000 It's still going to be a good show.

00:03:52.000 So, Those will be our stories, of course.

00:03:56.000 For anybody new here, we are on our brand new streaming platform, which, in case you missed it, it's called Cozy.tv.

00:04:03.000 We launched yesterday, and we've launched with a brand new homepage, and we brought on two additional streamers to the platform.

00:04:11.000 I, of course, am on the platform too now, but I was streaming on AmericaFirst.live.

00:04:16.000 We now have Jaden McNeil and Vince James on the platform.

00:04:20.000 So, yesterday was our first full day of streaming.

00:04:22.000 It was a huge success.

00:04:24.000 We had Vince James, I think he started around.

00:04:27.000 5 30 Central last night, and then I did my show.

00:04:31.000 And then I think Jaden streamed right after my show until like 2 or 3 a.m.

00:04:37.000 And I thought yesterday went very well.

00:04:39.000 And let me know what you think in the super chats or in the live chat.

00:04:43.000 I now have a super chat button on both AmericaFirst.live and Cozy.tv.

00:04:49.000 If you're on my channel on Cozy TV, if you go to the About section, there's a button to send a super chat because there was some confusion about that yesterday.

00:04:57.000 Some people said, Oh, we don't have a button, we don't have the link.

00:05:01.000 So I updated that.

00:05:03.000 But let me know what you think.

00:05:04.000 I thought it went very well yesterday, and we got a lot of positive feedback, which was good because this whole platform's been a long time coming, been working on it for months.

00:05:14.000 And I was interested to see if people would like the name, the logo, and the UI and all that.

00:05:22.000 But we got like universally positive feedback, even from people that don't really like me.

00:05:27.000 People are saying it was a huge success.

00:05:29.000 And, um, I think it was a big morale boost to see people like Vince and Jaden back on the same platform.

00:05:36.000 It feels like we're coming home.

00:05:38.000 Like we're so back.

00:05:40.000 Are we back?

00:05:41.000 I feel like we're so back.

00:05:43.000 Now that we're on Cozy TV, Jaden's back.

00:05:46.000 Vince is back.

00:05:47.000 I've never left.

00:05:49.000 Next week, we have three more streamers coming to the platform, and I think I'll announce those either tomorrow or Friday.

00:05:57.000 We got three new streamers, additional streamers coming onto the platform next week.

00:06:02.000 And then we should have more coming the week after that.

00:06:04.000 And we're just going to keep bringing them on.

00:06:07.000 And it'll be sort of a rolling, rolling rollout.

00:06:12.000 But as the weeks go on, we're going to add I'd like to add at least three or four people every single week.

00:06:17.000 So that, honestly, it's really just a cheap marketing ploy, but it works.

00:06:22.000 And, you know, we want to test it and make sure we can handle the capacity.

00:06:28.000 But I like that.

00:06:29.000 I like the fun of that.

00:06:30.000 And over time, you'll see there'll be more cards on the homepage and more people on the sidebar.

00:06:36.000 And pretty soon, the whole America First family will be on cozy.tv.

00:06:41.000 We had a big meeting with our dev team today and we discussed all the features we're going to put on the platform.

00:06:47.000 We got some of your feedback.

00:06:49.000 In case you missed it, we have a Telegram channel for the platform and we have an email where people can send in if they're a streamer and they want to stream on the platform.

00:06:59.000 Although, when I say streamer, I mean you have to have an audience.

00:07:02.000 And also for feedback, we've got some great feedback from friends.

00:07:07.000 Our two new streamers, other people, and we had a big meeting today to discuss a timeline for when we're putting in all the features.

00:07:15.000 And just so everybody understands, this is a beta test period.

00:07:19.000 So this is like the bare minimum.

00:07:21.000 You know, we've got the live chat, the video player, push notifications, but we are going to add, of course, view count, replays, which we already have replays, but we're going to mess around with them a little bit.

00:07:33.000 We're going to add clips, emotes, super chats, subscriptions, sub gifting.

00:07:38.000 Sub only streams, sub badges.

00:07:41.000 We're going to add everything that you get on DLive, Trovo, any other platform.

00:07:47.000 We're working on rolling that out for our platform.

00:07:50.000 My goal is to get it all finished by the end of the year.

00:07:53.000 I don't know if we're going to get there because it's a lot and we have a small dev team, but I think we're going to get pretty close by the end of the year.

00:08:02.000 So, very excited.

00:08:03.000 More streamers, more content, more features.

00:08:06.000 It's all on the way, but this is a great start and this is a big historic first step.

00:08:11.000 There's no censorship.

00:08:13.000 We're totally independent, we are not beholden to the ADL or the SPLC.

00:08:18.000 And pretty soon, this is going to be the hub for all America First content, streaming content on the internet.

00:08:24.000 So, Very, very exciting.

00:08:26.000 So, big shout out to Vince and Jaden for joining us and to our dev team, you know, again, after a big successful first day.

00:08:34.000 And now we're going to carry on on the platform and keep building.

00:08:38.000 So, we're on cozy.tv slash Nick.

00:08:41.000 Pretty soon, if you go to AmericaFirst.live, it's just going to redirect to my channel on cozy TV, just so you know.

00:08:48.000 And this hopefully will be the permanent home for this show for years to come.

00:08:53.000 So, that's that.

00:08:55.000 I also want to remind you, we have our brand new merch line on the merch store.

00:08:59.000 If you go to merch.nicholasjfuentes.com, we have six brand new designs for Halloween, which are limited edition.

00:09:08.000 We've got our brand new I Will Not Comply official t shirt, and we've got the America First hat, which is back on sale.

00:09:16.000 And you got to get those while you can because we're almost sold out already.

00:09:19.000 I think we launched them like two weeks ago.

00:09:21.000 We did another full order, we restocked them.

00:09:24.000 I thought, okay, we're going to be good for a long time.

00:09:27.000 And now we're more than halfway sold out already, more than halfway.

00:09:31.000 And it's been like two weeks.

00:09:32.000 So if you want to get an America First hat, make sure you go now, merch.nicholasjfuentes.com, because they're not going to last much longer.

00:09:40.000 I think it'll be a month before we're going to have to order another batch.

00:09:45.000 But anyway, that's our merch site.

00:09:48.000 I think that's everything.

00:09:51.000 Unless I'm forgetting, I think that's all of our announcements.

00:09:55.000 I don't think I'll be doing a show on Friday.

00:09:57.000 Might not be here Friday.

00:09:59.000 That's the other thing.

00:10:00.000 With that out of the way, I think that's it.

00:10:02.000 So we can jump in here and we'll dive into our first news story, which is about the Netflix walkout.

00:10:08.000 And I don't know, I mean, I guess you guys will have to tell me.

00:10:11.000 Maybe I'll watch it myself, but I actually haven't seen this Dave Chappelle special.

00:10:16.000 Apparently, everybody's talking about it.

00:10:19.000 Honestly, I never thought that Dave Chappelle was that funny.

00:10:22.000 Maybe it's like a generational thing, but I never watched his old show, which everybody talks about.

00:10:34.000 I never really understood the hype.

00:10:37.000 You know, I saw him on SNL and I think I saw one of his specials on Netflix, but honestly, I was never that impressed.

00:10:44.000 I really don't like these people where they go out and they say something like basically normal about LGBT or feminism or race or Donald Trump, and then they get lauded as like, wow, like they just broke new ground.

00:11:03.000 Dave Chappelle changed the conversation again.

00:11:05.000 Like, why?

00:11:06.000 Because on election night, he said, You wish you'd give Trump a chance.

00:11:10.000 Like, I'm so sick of that.

00:11:13.000 Because I feel like that happens every other month or every other year.

00:11:17.000 It's like a mainstream liberal progressive comedian or actor or singer.

00:11:23.000 They'll go out and say, like, the bare minimum.

00:11:26.000 They'll say something so, so mainstream, something that you could find on MSNBC or CNN.

00:11:37.000 And then it's applause.

00:11:38.000 And even from our side, even from conservatives, they say, Dave Chappelle, free speech icon, anti cancel culture, political correctness. 0.59

00:11:48.000 And it's like Dave Chappelle's a black liberal, right? 0.65

00:11:51.000 I mean, and the same goes for all these people. 0.98

00:11:53.000 So I've never been a huge fan, and I don't think he's a visionary.

00:11:58.000 I don't think he's changing the conversation.

00:12:01.000 But there was a big controversy with his latest special where apparently he made jokes about transgender people.

00:12:07.000 And now there's a big walkout planned at Netflix headquarters in protest because Netflix won't take his special down.

00:12:16.000 And so this is the story it says Trans employees and allies at Netflix are planning a walkout on Wednesday, October 20th in protest.

00:12:25.000 Of co CEO Ted Serendos' comments regarding Dave Chappelle's new special, The Closer.

00:12:32.000 As reported by The Verge, a leader of the streamer's trans employee resource group wrote the following in a message to its members Trans lives matter, trans rights matter.

00:12:44.000 And as an organization, Netflix has continually failed to show deep care in our mission to entertain the world by repeatedly releasing content that harms the trans community and continually failing to create content that represents and uplifts.

00:12:59.000 Trans content.

00:13:01.000 We can and must do better.

00:13:05.000 Failing to create content that represents and uplifts trans content. 0.90

00:13:10.000 Does that even make any sense?

00:13:12.000 Read that again.

00:13:13.000 Let's read that again.

00:13:14.000 It says Netflix fails to show care in our mission to entertain the world by releasing content that harms trans community and continually failing to create content that represents and uplifts trans content.

00:13:30.000 That doesn't even make any sense.

00:13:33.000 They're not creating content that uplifts trans content. 0.96

00:13:36.000 What the fuck does that even mean? 0.99

00:13:38.000 Anyway, I'm so sick of it, honestly. 0.98

00:13:41.000 Now, listen, you know me.

00:13:45.000 Normally, I'm a pretty level headed guy.

00:13:47.000 And I'm not one of these people to LARP about violence.

00:13:51.000 And I disavow violence.

00:13:53.000 I don't want violence.

00:13:54.000 I don't encourage violence or anything like that.

00:13:58.000 But I feel like it takes a lot.

00:14:01.000 Because I cover this stuff every day for years.

00:14:03.000 So I have a pretty high tolerance.

00:14:05.000 But you hear these same lines just over and over and over again.

00:14:10.000 And you see them on TikTok and you see them on Instagram and you hear them on TV and you read them in the news and it's all over social media and it's always the same stuff.

00:14:22.000 Trans lives matter.

00:14:24.000 Trans rights matter.

00:14:25.000 We can and must do better.

00:14:28.000 We can do better.

00:14:29.000 We can do better. 1.00

00:14:31.000 Shut up. 1.00

00:14:32.000 I'm so like, I'm sick of the lines, the same lines. 0.99

00:14:37.000 It's not even the rest of it.

00:14:38.000 I mean, obviously, the rest of it is bothersome for reasons we understand, but it's just the, and I know it's overused to say Orwellian, but it's just the dogmatic, just beaten over the head with the sort of very specific vernacular they use, the very specific language they're always using when they talk about harm.

00:15:01.000 Harm is a big one.

00:15:02.000 They always talk about harm.

00:15:05.000 That's very harmful and it's problematic, and you're harming trans bodies and trans persons.

00:15:11.000 We can do better. 1.00

00:15:12.000 It's like the same, you know what I'm talking about?

00:15:14.000 It's the same vocabulary, and they all think they're so smart.

00:15:18.000 And all these people are illiterate.

00:15:19.000 All these, like, SJW, specifically women, I think women are like this in general, but specifically these types, they're all illiterate. 0.80

00:15:28.000 Like, if you go and you see anything they post on, like, Instagram or Twitter or whatever, whenever you see these viral posts, it's always like grammatical mistakes, misspellings. 0.97

00:15:39.000 When you see these TikToks about, like, here's sweetie, here's the latest, like, You know, LGBT acronym.

00:15:47.000 And they use these big $5 words that they're posting on Tumblr, like a sociology professor says, but functionally they are illiterate at the same time.

00:15:57.000 Anyway, that's just a side note.

00:16:00.000 But yeah, Netflix isn't making content to uplift trans content, and they're not entertaining the world by releasing content that doesn't harm the trans people.

00:16:10.000 I don't know.

00:16:11.000 None of it makes sense.

00:16:12.000 It says Netflix's most Twitter account dedicated to LGBTQ.

00:16:16.000 This is the article, by the way.

00:16:17.000 I think it's maybe the article that doesn't make sense.

00:16:20.000 It says Netflix's most Twitter account dedicated to LGBTQ content posted on Wednesday.

00:16:27.000 Quote, We can't always control what goes on screen.

00:16:31.000 What we can control is what we create here and the point of view we bring to internal conversations.

00:16:38.000 On Monday, Variety exclusively reported that Sarendos had defended Chappelle's special, which has been accused of containing transphobic and homophobic content in a memo to staff.

00:16:50.000 Sarendos, and these are the comments that are.

00:16:53.000 Controversial.

00:16:54.000 He said, Chappelle is one of the most popular stand up comedians today, and we have a long standing deal with him.

00:17:01.000 His last special, Sticks and Stones, also controversial, is our most watched, stickiest, and most award winning stand up special to date.

00:17:11.000 As with our other talent, we work hard to support their creative freedom, even though this means there will always be content on Netflix that some people believe is harmful.

00:17:21.000 In a statement to Variety, Netflix said the company encourages.

00:17:25.000 Encourages employees to disagree openly with the sentiment.

00:17:30.000 A Netflix spokesperson said Dave Chappelle's specials are consistently the most watched comedy specials and have earned many awards, including both an Emmy and a Grammy for Sticks and Stones.

00:17:39.000 We support artistic expression for our creators.

00:17:42.000 We encourage our employees to disagree openly.

00:17:45.000 Shortly after Seren Dos' memo, three employees were suspended for crashing an executive meeting, including Tara Field, who identifies as trans and queer.

00:17:55.000 And they criticized Chappelle's special on Twitter.

00:17:57.000 According to Netflix, Field was not suspended due to her tweets, but for attending the meeting uninvited.

00:18:03.000 On Tuesday, it was announced that the employees had been reinstated after finding that they did not join the meeting with any ill intent.

00:18:11.000 So, the only thing I wanted to say about this, because I mean, I read this and I mean, what is there to say really? 0.73

00:18:19.000 It's more of the trans nonsense, it's the woke corporations and so on. 0.69

00:18:25.000 But this is what I wanted to point out, because I see a trend here, and this has been going on for a little while. 0.63

00:18:31.000 That black basketball player comes out against anti vax, or comes out, I should say, in favor of anti vax, and everybody in the conservative movement is over the moon.

00:18:42.000 Cardi B comes out against the vax, and people are saying she should lead Blegzit for real this time.

00:18:50.000 And then there's Dave Chappelle, who comes out and makes a couple of trans jokes, and then I heard blames everything on white people, and everybody says he's a free speech warrior.

00:19:00.000 And good on Netflix for not caving to the PC mob. 0.61

00:19:04.000 Here's what I want to point out about this. 0.74

00:19:07.000 The reason why Dave Chappelle did not get canceled because of this is not because he's winning Grammys, it's not because he's winning Emmys, it's not because he makes a lot of money, it's not because he made the Bastion most popular special on Netflix.

00:19:24.000 Dave Chappelle didn't get canceled because he is black.

00:19:28.000 It's that simple. 0.99

00:19:30.000 It is black and white in this case.

00:19:33.000 Dave Chappelle is not being canceled for making transphobic or homophobic jokes on his special. 0.98

00:19:39.000 Because he is black. 0.92

00:19:42.000 And it's really not more complicated than that. 0.99

00:19:45.000 Cardi B can go out and say that the vaccine caused her cousin's testicles to swell up and not get canceled or banned from Twitter because she's black. 0.94

00:19:58.000 And the basketball players can protest the vaccine without, well, I guess they're getting taken off the court, but without getting dismissed, without huge backlash because they're black. 0.98

00:20:10.000 And everybody knows it.

00:20:12.000 So, when the Netflix CEO and when their board of directors and when the higher ups at the company review this conflict, where you've got a vocal trans community or section of the workforce complaining about the special, and then you've got Dave Chappelle, who's a cultural icon but also black, they're not weighing the merits of what's being said.

00:20:36.000 They're not weighing the financial repercussions.

00:20:40.000 What they're really weighing is according to identity.

00:20:45.000 Whose opinions and whose rights matter more? 0.93

00:20:48.000 And in this instance, black beat trans. 1.00

00:20:52.000 That's all there is to it. 0.98

00:20:54.000 The Netflix top brass, the leadership said, well, we can't offend the black people. 0.96

00:20:59.000 We can afford, reasonably in this case, to upset the trans and the gay people. 0.97

00:21:05.000 It's that simple, and everybody knows it. 0.98

00:21:08.000 Now, the reason that I'm pointing that out is not just to say, well, the only reason Dave Chappelle, it's just because he's black, because he's a whatever. 0.73

00:21:16.000 I'm not saying it like that.

00:21:17.000 Here's why this matters.

00:21:20.000 Because whenever conservatives look at this situation and they participate in this, which what this amounts to is a double standard, black people can say things that white people cannot. 0.90

00:21:32.000 Black people can be anti vax. 0.97

00:21:34.000 Black people can be anti trans. 1.00

00:21:36.000 Black people can be homophobic. 1.00

00:21:38.000 Black people can get away with a lot in the current PC climate. 0.99

00:21:43.000 They can get away with it because the same kind of social, financial, professional repercussions. 0.95

00:21:50.000 They're not applied equally to black people, unless, and this is an important exception, unless it concerns Jews. 0.95

00:21:57.000 If it concerns Jews, then the playing field is very equalized. 0.59

00:22:01.000 And maybe that tells you something else. 0.71

00:22:03.000 But that exception notwithstanding, you see all day long, and everybody knows this, and you don't have to spend a lot of time on social media or pay attention to the news for very long, but everybody knows there is a different standard applied to black people when it comes to cancel culture.

00:22:21.000 Than it is to white people. 0.52

00:22:23.000 White people are on thin ice.

00:22:24.000 And if a white person says something that's even perceived as being out of line, that's all it takes for them to have their whole career shut down or suspended temporarily and lose sponsorships and contracts and management and everything. 0.90

00:22:40.000 We know that.

00:22:42.000 Now, when conservatives go out there and participate in this, participate and uphold the double standard by saying, Bravo, Cardi B. Who we wouldn't agree with on anything else, and we would find her lifestyle and her music basically repulsive, but they go out and say, They say, 'Bravo for Cardi B for saying something that white people say all day long.' And they say, 'Good on her.' And they stand behind her steadfastly because it's easy.

00:23:09.000 And they do the same thing for the basketball players, and then the latest thing with Dave Chappelle.

00:23:15.000 And they don't necessarily do that so much for the white people. 0.59

00:23:19.000 What they're doing in that instance is effectively upholding a double standard where It seems like, according to social status, by virtue of being black, your opinion matters more.

00:23:31.000 By virtue of you being a black American, you're somewhere up here.

00:23:36.000 You're at like the top of a caste system where you get more leeway, benefit of the doubt, you get to say what you want, think what you want, still within reason, but you get away with more. 0.91

00:23:48.000 And white people don't.

00:23:49.000 White people don't get to do that. 0.97

00:23:51.000 And that's really the main takeaway from this. 0.86

00:23:53.000 I see this Dave Chappelle thing, it's whatever.

00:23:57.000 There's a lot of edgy comedians out there, and they say things that 20 years ago wouldn't have even been jokes.

00:24:03.000 They say things about trans or gay people or women or The Illuminati, whatever, in the case of like Bill Burr as an example, comedians will go out these days and say something that five years ago wouldn't have been a joke.

00:24:17.000 And certainly today would be considered mainstream.

00:24:20.000 And to the extent that they say certain things, it is made very clear they are joking.

00:24:25.000 And it's also made clear that they are liberal and progressive.

00:24:29.000 And when they make a joke, that's all it is.

00:24:32.000 If they're really not venturing very far into intellectual or opinion territory, everybody understands it's transgressive for the sake of being transgressive. 0.65

00:24:42.000 Safely, though, they are progressive liberals, in many cases, minorities. 0.64

00:24:48.000 And when I see conservatives going out there and celebrating, oh, they said something about trans or women. 0.93

00:24:54.000 You know, a lot of this stuff, we've seen it a million times before.

00:24:57.000 It's not that remarkable.

00:24:59.000 It's not remarkable that certain people, like trans people or gay people, would be overly offended by the joke.

00:25:05.000 The takeaway to me is as conservatives, we got to get a little bit smarter.

00:25:09.000 And in the same way that trans people are always saying we can and should do better, we should be saying the same thing too.

00:25:17.000 My hero is supposed to be who?

00:25:19.000 Dave Chappelle and Cardi B and Kyrie Irving.

00:25:24.000 Really?

00:25:24.000 Those are supposed to be my heroes?

00:25:27.000 And why?

00:25:28.000 Because they're black and they're entitled to say things that I can't. 0.97

00:25:32.000 They're black and they're entitled to have opinions and speak their mind and not face the same repercussions that I would. 0.96

00:25:40.000 So I'm supposed to have all black heroes because I'm supposed to resign myself to being at the bottom of the social hierarchy. 0.73

00:25:48.000 And celebrate my social betters who are all black. 1.00

00:25:54.000 Does that sound right to anybody? 0.86

00:25:55.000 That's what we're supposed to do as white Americans?

00:25:58.000 Because concurrently, while this is going on, you know, every white person for even existing is right now being canceled.

00:26:07.000 You know, we saw a few weeks ago, I think it was at Arizona State University, a couple of white male students were chased out of a library because literally, They were white people existing in diverse space, and that was making non white people uncomfortable. 0.54

00:26:28.000 And I, as a conservative, am supposed to see that and everything represented in there and everything else that goes on anti white ridicule, anti white propaganda, policies being put in place in law. 0.82

00:26:40.000 And I'm supposed to turn and look at a black savior like Dave Chappelle and say, Thank you, liberal progressive black guy, for making a transgressive joke. 0.93

00:26:50.000 About transgenderism. 0.78

00:26:51.000 You're a real free thinker.

00:26:52.000 You're my hero.

00:26:55.000 We can and should do better.

00:26:57.000 I'm sick of it and I'm tired of doing that.

00:27:02.000 We've got to raise the bar up a little bit.

00:27:05.000 And I think conservatives have got to, I've been saying this for a long time, they got to deprogram themselves with this race stuff because, on some level, what this is is white racial guilt.

00:27:16.000 I think that's what animates most race relations, at least from the white perspective.

00:27:21.000 That's what animates most people's ideas and feelings and actions, white people at least, when it comes to race relations.

00:27:30.000 Because in this case, we look at a Cardi B, and we'll use language like, she left the Democratic plantation.

00:27:37.000 Like, what does that even mean?

00:27:40.000 You know, when conservatives applaud black people for saying things that we know to be obvious and we've been talking about for years, when they step up from a life of debauchery and greed and all of that to make some kind of controversial political statement, we say, Good job! 0.97

00:27:58.000 Wow! 0.99

00:27:59.000 Look at you!

00:28:00.000 You left the Democratic plantation.

00:28:02.000 And I know it's trite, but.

00:28:04.000 You know why people are saying that.

00:28:06.000 It's because, on some level, and this is, again, this is according to white guilt, white people kind of like look down on blacks and have a lower expectation of them.

00:28:17.000 And so, when a black person has a conservative opinion, unlike the rest of the black people, conservatives go, Look at you go.

00:28:24.000 Wow, this is amazing. 1.00

00:28:26.000 Bravo.

00:28:27.000 You're incredible.

00:28:28.000 And on some level, that's because they have internalized everything that the left says about race, which is that these people have been kept down, they're disadvantaged, they're.

00:28:38.000 All this stuff is going on, and we were the abusers and the oppressors.

00:28:42.000 And so, when we see one of them join us, somebody with white racial guilt would feel good about that.

00:28:50.000 Why will they feel good about that? 0.64

00:28:51.000 Because it, in some sense, is supposed to rectify this historical grievance that blacks have against the white man. 0.63

00:28:59.000 It's supposed to say, wow, you know what?

00:29:01.000 Maybe we can get along.

00:29:02.000 Maybe we're not so different after all.

00:29:04.000 You know what?

00:29:05.000 Maybe I'm not the bad guy.

00:29:07.000 See, I'm not a racist.

00:29:08.000 My heroes are Thomas Sowell and Candace Owens.

00:29:12.000 That's white racial guilt.

00:29:14.000 That is an expression of white racial guilt for things that you didn't do. 0.98

00:29:19.000 White racial guilt for being born white. 0.95

00:29:22.000 And it's very important. 0.98

00:29:24.000 You know, these BLM types are always talking about doing the work of like deconstructing race and thinking about systemic racism and becoming a class traitor, a race traitor to your own people, a traitor against the white supremacist system. 0.78

00:29:41.000 And it's almost like we're saying the parallel you've got to do the work. 0.97

00:29:44.000 And you've got to sit down and think, and you've got to read Jared Taylor instead of reading who's that black author that everybody talks about, the BLM one. 0.67

00:29:53.000 Instead of reading some book about toxic whiteness and so on, you've got to read your Jared Taylor, and you've got to read your Sam Francis and your Arthur Jensen, and you've got to go out there and do the work, do the work, and start to deconstruct your white racial guilt in your head and affirm. 0.90

00:30:16.000 Your white identity and realizing we don't need black celebrities. 0.89

00:30:20.000 We don't need all, and don't get me wrong, I'm not like against black people or anything, but I'm saying I'm not going to fall to my knees and worship a black celebrity because black people are supposed to have more of a right to have a political opinion than I am. 0.99

00:30:34.000 I don't think that's right. 0.97

00:30:36.000 How many people are out there been fighting the good fight for the right wing, for Christianity, for conservatism that don't get any recognition and in some cases even get canceled?

00:30:47.000 Like Ajira Taylor, like me, or like others for saying the same things because we're white. 0.61

00:30:53.000 But when a black celebrity says it, we're going to bend over backwards to accommodate and celebrate and win them over. 0.51

00:31:01.000 No, Dave Chappelle is not on our side. 0.96

00:31:04.000 Dave Chappelle is like maybe a more civil progressive, but don't forget, he's on the side of our enemies.

00:31:11.000 He's friends with all of them.

00:31:12.000 They all love him.

00:31:14.000 They all think he's smart.

00:31:15.000 People that hate us and celebrate when an unvaxxed celebrity.

00:31:19.000 Person dies of COVID, that celebrate that white people are becoming a minority in their own country, that celebrate when Trump supporters are dying at the Capitol.

00:31:29.000 Those people love Dave Chappelle and watch his specials, and he's an icon to them, and he's friends with all of them.

00:31:36.000 And we're supposed to say that guy's our hero because he made a joke about trans when he obviously affirms the status quo on LGBT?

00:31:44.000 I don't think so. 0.77

00:31:46.000 And if you think otherwise, that is because you are affirming and participating in this social caste system which says that blacks have more of a right to an opinion than white people do. 0.84

00:31:59.000 Blacks can say what they want and whites cannot. 0.96

00:32:02.000 Blacks can ridicule other minorities because they are black and because they are a victim and we're an oppressor, so we cannot. 1.00

00:32:09.000 That's what you're doing. 0.98

00:32:11.000 I will say, though, and to circle back on this a little bit, it is interesting because it doesn't actually apply to Jews. 0.97

00:32:20.000 Blacks cannot make fun of Jews. 0.73

00:32:21.000 Have you ever noticed that? 0.99

00:32:23.000 This is very telling, these racial dynamics.

00:32:27.000 Because do you remember it was about a year ago when Nick Cannon?

00:32:31.000 Said something about Louis Farrakhan, or I forget the details exactly, but Nick Cannon, who you remember, he was on MTV and Nickelodeon, and what else did he do?

00:32:43.000 I think he was a musician at one point.

00:32:46.000 But Nick Cannon retweeted something, he reposted something on social media. 0.98

00:32:51.000 I think it was Louis Farrakhan where he said that Jews were cockroaches or something like that. 0.95

00:32:56.000 And then do you remember that he literally had to publish a book report? 0.98

00:33:00.000 He had to write an essay.

00:33:02.000 Apologizing and talking about the proud Jewish history and the Holocaust. 0.63

00:33:07.000 And then he had to have a rabbi on his podcast, and the rabbi had to give him a talking to about his anti Semitism.

00:33:14.000 And by the way, Nick Cannon went along with all of this publicly humiliated himself, publicly, right?

00:33:22.000 So do it that way, what you will.

00:33:23.000 But that's kind of interesting. 1.00

00:33:24.000 It seems that you can get away with it with certain groups, but not the Jews. 1.00

00:33:30.000 So, anyway, so that's that. 1.00

00:33:32.000 But I want to move on.

00:33:33.000 I want to talk about this.

00:33:35.000 Federal judge in Texas who shut down the United Airlines vax mandate.

00:33:41.000 This is a pretty big deal.

00:33:43.000 And like I said, we're going to have to wait and see how this plays out in Texas because honestly, I don't really know.

00:33:52.000 People have been asking me, they say, is this a white pill?

00:33:54.000 Is this a good sign?

00:33:57.000 I don't know how it's going to play out.

00:33:59.000 And here's why you look at the federal government and how it's operated specifically under Joe Biden and You know, I guess the federal government has kind of always operated like this on some level, which we talked about yesterday when we talked about the IRS looking at people's bank accounts and their checking account balances.

00:34:24.000 Maybe the federal government has always operated like this effectively, but people didn't know about it.

00:34:30.000 And certainly the federal government would deny it if people asked about it, and they would try to cover it up and hide it where they were doing it.

00:34:38.000 Now they're doing it in the open.

00:34:39.000 And what I'm talking about is the way that this administration is governed, they just don't care about the law.

00:34:48.000 And like I said, people might hear that and roll their eyes and say that's literally every administration since FDR and probably going back to Abraham Lincoln and maybe even before that.

00:34:59.000 Maybe the president has never really obeyed the law and the administration hasn't.

00:35:05.000 What I mean is, in this case, this is like their public policy.

00:35:09.000 They're like openly going out there.

00:35:11.000 As an example, this summer, the eviction moratorium was set to expire, and the Supreme Court said in June that the CDC did not have the authority to extend the eviction moratorium.

00:35:26.000 Because weirdly enough, a year ago, it was the CDC, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, which implemented the eviction moratorium.

00:35:34.000 You wouldn't think that a public health agency would have the power to suspend evictions from landlords, but they did that.

00:35:42.000 Supreme Court decided in June that the CDC can't do that again.

00:35:46.000 That's obviously unconstitutional.

00:35:48.000 They obviously don't have the power to do that.

00:35:50.000 And there was a big outcry, I think it was in July or August, when the eviction moratorium was set to expire, that the Biden administration and the Democratic House of Representatives would not extend it any further because they didn't have the authority to.

00:36:04.000 And at least in Congress, they didn't have the votes to do that.

00:36:09.000 So Democrats were outraged and they said, How could we elect Democrats?

00:36:12.000 How could we put Joe Biden in the White House, how can we give Nancy Pelosi the speakership and we're going to let the eviction moratorium expire when all these renters are going to be kicked out?

00:36:23.000 And so the Biden administration came out like the next week after they had already said that they couldn't do it.

00:36:31.000 They came out the next week at a press conference and said, We don't care that it's illegal.

00:36:36.000 We don't care that the Supreme Court told us in June that it's unconstitutional for us to extend it.

00:36:41.000 We are just simply going to extend it.

00:36:44.000 And they said that.

00:36:45.000 It will be challenged in the courts because it's illegal, and the Supreme Court probably will prevent us from extending it.

00:36:53.000 But they said we're extending it for about 90 days.

00:36:57.000 By the time the eviction moratorium extension expires, it'll already be too late for the Supreme Court to adjudicate it.

00:37:07.000 So, in other words, yes, it is illegal.

00:37:09.000 Yes, it'll be challenged.

00:37:11.000 Yes, the Supreme Court will shut it down, but they won't be able to shut it down in time because we can work.

00:37:19.000 Faster and more decisively than the courts.

00:37:23.000 We in the bureaucracy, and this is a very important note, we in the bureaucracy can work faster and more decisively and in a more calculating way and in a more organized fashion than the courts.

00:37:35.000 So, yeah, the courts, they've already decided it and they'll shut us down again, but not before the eviction extension, or rather, eviction moratorium extension itself expires.

00:37:47.000 They're not going to fix it in 90 days, so who really cares?

00:37:50.000 And then they sign the order.

00:37:53.000 And so, I don't think I've ever seen anything like that.

00:37:55.000 We've seen things that are similar, but Donald Trump never disobeyed the courts like that, which is a shame.

00:38:01.000 He should have.

00:38:04.000 And so now the Biden administration is plowing through.

00:38:06.000 And then, in this case, with the vaccine mandate, there's even a little bit of confusion about this.

00:38:11.000 We know that in September, I think it was September 13th or somewhere around there, they did a press conference.

00:38:17.000 This is the famous, basically, the federal vaccine mandate announcement.

00:38:23.000 They came out and said, If you're a business with more than 100 employees, you have to have everybody vaccinated or else you'll get fined.

00:38:33.000 And every federal contractor and every federal worker, they will also have to be vaccinated.

00:38:40.000 And the way that they were supposed to go about doing that was through OSHA, which is what is it, occupational safety and hazards, whatever.

00:38:50.000 That was supposed to be filed in the bureaucracy.

00:38:53.000 It was supposed to be a new regulation.

00:38:55.000 They were calling coronavirus exposure like an occupational hazard.

00:39:00.000 And under that legal pretext, that's how they were going to go and enforce this and find companies that didn't do it.

00:39:07.000 But the weird thing is, they haven't even filed that rule change yet.

00:39:12.000 That's not on the books.

00:39:14.000 They went out and said, if you break the rule, we're going to go out and fine you thousands of dollars.

00:39:19.000 They haven't filed that rule yet.

00:39:21.000 And so businesses are not able to challenge it.

00:39:24.000 You can't get an injunction on that order through the courts because it hasn't even been put on the books.

00:39:30.000 So people are scratching their heads and wondering well, why do you do a press conference announcing you're going to start fining businesses if you don't even put it on the books?

00:39:38.000 Well, that's just it.

00:39:40.000 They put out the announcement.

00:39:41.000 They drafted the rule change.

00:39:43.000 They're waiting to file it.

00:39:45.000 They're waiting to file it so that businesses can't challenge it, can't put it in the courts, and maybe it gets shut down.

00:39:52.000 But in the meantime, there will be adoption because businesses, out of fear of an impending fine or order, and under pressure from banks and other companies and social pressure, they're implementing it in the meantime as though it were filed.

00:40:06.000 So it has this effect where it's scaring people into complying, scaring people into going.

00:40:13.000 Companies, in particular business owners, it's scaring them into enforcing a vaccine mandate.

00:40:19.000 But if they file it in the books, then they challenge it so they won't do that.

00:40:23.000 So people are afraid, they enforce the vaccine mandate, but businesses that are not afraid and are paying attention can't challenge it in the courts either.

00:40:32.000 And then they threatened later on, I think this was either in September or early October, they came out and said, We're going to make the fine $700,000.

00:40:42.000 Didn't file that either.

00:40:43.000 That was supposed to be in a law, which I don't believe is even passed yet.

00:40:48.000 That provision is also not on the books either, but companies are acting as though they are.

00:40:52.000 Now you've got states like Florida and Texas banning vaccine mandates, although there is technically no federal vaccine mandate, and not even in the technical, unofficial way that they were trying to do it.

00:41:03.000 That doesn't even exist.

00:41:05.000 So, to what extent this is going to go through the courts and how this is going to play out, I really don't know.

00:41:10.000 And this is why I've been pushing it so hard on the show.

00:41:13.000 I think it's still yet to be determined.

00:41:15.000 I think that they still may back off if they are met with enough resistance.

00:41:19.000 And this is just part of it.

00:41:22.000 So, this is the story.

00:41:23.000 United Airlines is imposing a vaccine mandate.

00:41:26.000 They're a federal contractor.

00:41:28.000 And so, they're telling all their employees they have to get vaccinated or else they get put on unpaid leave.

00:41:34.000 And so, a lot of United Airlines employees have tried to file exemptions, although United Airlines is not really giving those out.

00:41:43.000 There are about 600 workers that are set to be put on unpaid leave because they refuse the vaccine.

00:41:49.000 And in recent weeks, some of those workers have sued the company.

00:41:53.000 And now, a federal judge in Texas has put an injunction on United Airlines enforcing the mandate so that all these workers that should be put on unpaid leave now are not going to be.

00:42:03.000 The vaccine mandate has been stalled.

00:42:06.000 So, this is the article which I'll pull up here.

00:42:09.000 It says, A federal judge in Texas has temporarily blocked United Airlines from putting unvaccinated workers who requested exemptions from the company's COVID shot mandate on leave.

00:42:21.000 U.S. District Judge Mark Pittman wrote in his order, The court is not currently ruling on the merits of the parties' arguments on these points.

00:42:30.000 Rather, the court seeks simply to avoid the risk of irreparable harm to the parties and to maintain the status quo while the court holds an evidentiary hearing.

00:42:41.000 So, in other words, this is not a ruling.

00:42:43.000 They're not saying that the VAX mandate from United Airlines is unconstitutional or not, or illegal or not.

00:42:50.000 They're not establishing precedent here.

00:42:53.000 They're putting up an injunction.

00:42:55.000 They're blocking the order from going through, upholding the status quo, because If they allow it to go through, people get vaccinated.

00:43:02.000 This is a permanent thing while they decide, while they look at the evidence.

00:43:08.000 So don't get too excited.

00:43:09.000 They're not shutting it down, they're just blocking it temporarily while they make a decision.

00:43:15.000 It says United originally planned to put any workers who did not comply with the company's shot order on leave.

00:43:21.000 Even those who requested and were granted religious exemptions from the jab were going to be forced into medical or indefinite unpaid leave.

00:43:30.000 Under Pittman's new order, however, the company is not permitted to take any unvaccinated workers off the airline's payroll.

00:43:36.000 And the order expires on October 26th, which is in two weeks.

00:43:41.000 United Airlines was one of the first airlines to force the COVID shot on its employees starting in August.

00:43:47.000 Nearly 600 of the company's workers are at risk to be fired since they have yet to get the jab, in addition to the 2,000 employees who have filed requests for exemptions.

00:43:59.000 United CEO Scott Kirby and President Bret Hart wrote in a memo We know some of you will disagree with this decision to require the vaccine for United employees.

00:44:10.000 But we have no greater responsibility to you and your colleagues than to ensure your safety when you're at work.

00:44:16.000 And the facts are crystal clear everyone is safer when everyone is vaccinated.

00:44:23.000 Which I disagree with, but that's United.

00:44:25.000 It says thousands of pilots, flight attendants, and office staff applied for medical and religious exemptions, but their requests were met with hostility.

00:44:34.000 A handful of employees sued United for discriminating against people with legitimate objections to the shot and forcing them to abandon their convictions or source of income.

00:44:44.000 United agreed to push back the deadline for getting the shot from September 27th to October 15th amid the ongoing litigation.

00:44:52.000 But that still leaves workers in limbo.

00:44:56.000 So, like I said, this is not final, obviously, and this is still just a district court.

00:45:04.000 But the good news is, this is starting to be challenged in the courts.

00:45:07.000 And honestly, this is what we want.

00:45:09.000 We want it to go to the courts because at least there's a chance.

00:45:12.000 And at the minimum, at least this buys people time.

00:45:15.000 I mean, that's.

00:45:16.000 Maybe primarily, why this is a good thing is everybody should be prepared to get fired for refusing the vaccine.

00:45:23.000 I understand that not everybody has a plan B in the event that they lose their job unexpectedly for something like this.

00:45:30.000 So, at the minimum, if you're in a company or a state where there's an injunction like this or there's a ban on vax mandates, at the minimum, this might buy you some time to get another job or to look at alternative options.

00:45:46.000 I don't know, you know, tap into your savings, whatever.

00:45:51.000 But this is good, obviously, for the people that have requested exemptions and for the people that did not request exemptions but won't get the vax to get everything together if they're going to get fired in a couple weeks.

00:46:03.000 The other reason this is good is because I think that this could go to the Supreme Court.

00:46:08.000 I think it's basically inevitable.

00:46:10.000 And there are multiple avenues for how this might get to the Supreme Court.

00:46:15.000 Maybe the federal government finally files.

00:46:18.000 Their federal vax mandate, and that's challenged, and that goes to the Supreme Court.

00:46:24.000 Or the state bans on vax mandates, maybe that'll go to the court.

00:46:30.000 And then maybe a case like this will go to the court.

00:46:33.000 I will say, though, I'm not extremely optimistic because we have seen, for example, universities, they've been challenged on their vaccine mandates.

00:46:43.000 And in those cases, the students have lost.

00:46:45.000 In particular, there was a college in Indiana where a group of students challenged the vaccine mandate.

00:46:52.000 And the district judge upheld the Indiana University's decision to put in place a vaccine mandate.

00:46:58.000 And I believe this was a private school.

00:47:02.000 Or maybe it was public, I'm not sure.

00:47:03.000 But in any case, they upheld for colleges that they can put in place a vaccine mandate.

00:47:09.000 So if a judge in Indiana does that, you know, it is to say at the minimum, it's not impossible.

00:47:15.000 Some people might think it's like a home run.

00:47:17.000 Of course, the government can enforce a vaccine, of course, a business, a university can do that.

00:47:23.000 Well, at least with the cases we've seen so far, I don't know that every judge necessarily would agree with that.

00:47:30.000 So, we'll have to wait and see what the outcome of this case will be.

00:47:33.000 At the minimum, we could say that it's buying people time.

00:47:36.000 But I just want to remind people in no way, shape, or form is this over.

00:47:40.000 Because there's a lot of people out there that are getting vaccinated.

00:47:44.000 To this day, I still get super chats from people saying, you know, I got vaccinated because I want to keep my job or whatever.

00:47:51.000 And I guess the overarching point is this is still far from over.

00:47:56.000 From a legal point of view, political, and also from the point of view of the economy.

00:48:03.000 This has not been settled because there are still millions of people.

00:48:06.000 There's still a serious percentage of the population which has not been vaccinated.

00:48:12.000 And whichever way you cut it, there could be an outcome in the court which will help us.

00:48:17.000 And if every worker refuses to get vaccinated, even in spite of being fired, if they all do that, that'll shut down the economy.

00:48:25.000 Government can't do that.

00:48:27.000 And there may be other possible avenues too.

00:48:29.000 If in the next election, you know, and I don't like to put too much faith in the elections and that's still a year away, but who knows? 0.91

00:48:36.000 Maybe, if that turns out to be a very unpopular issue, at least in Republican states, you might have a pressure, like in the case of Greg Abbott, for sitting governors or state legislatures to take action against the Vax mandates.

00:48:49.000 So that's why it's very important.

00:48:51.000 Just like I said last year during Stop the Steal, this is one of these issues which is of grave consequence and which we can still move the needle.

00:49:00.000 This is an issue where we can change the outcome.

00:49:03.000 And when I say we, I mean like me and I mean like the people watching this show.

00:49:08.000 Small group of activists can still move the needle on this, and it's worthwhile to do.

00:49:14.000 And I go into that almost every night, so I'm not going to re litigate that here on this show because we've done that like every week.

00:49:21.000 But you understand the seriousness of this.

00:49:23.000 We're talking about it, as I've said before biometric security compliance system everywhere, controlled by the government, controlled by Kamala Harris, Joe Biden, the deep state, people that hate us.

00:49:37.000 It's clearly worthwhile if.

00:49:39.000 Possible for that not to come to fruition.

00:49:42.000 And we have a chance to make that happen because when you look at it in the courts, when you look at the Southwest pilot strike, when you look at there are some unions fighting this, the Chicago Police Union is fighting this, other airlines are fighting this, and there's lots of workers protesting too that are not unionized.

00:50:02.000 When you look at all the resistance happening in the economy, and then you look at the court orders being done and some governors putting in place bans on the fax mandates, you can see that it's still far from over here.

00:50:14.000 So that's why, because I think that's a tricky thing.

00:50:16.000 A lot of people might think to themselves, Am I going to get fired for some kind of meaningless stand that is going nowhere against the vaccine?

00:50:24.000 You can't look at it like that because if everybody that opposes the vaccine is willing to get fired and go to a protest and sue their university or business or the government or whatever, if we're willing to fight in every way that we can, everybody that's not vaccinated, everybody that is a conscientious objector, Then we can turn the tide on this and force them to back off.

00:50:48.000 I really do believe that.

00:50:50.000 Because it's a pretty big ask to tell people, you know, get fired from your job, get expelled from school, have your life turned upside down.

00:50:57.000 And a big variable in whether or not people are willing to do that is whether or not they realistically believe that it's going to make a difference.

00:51:04.000 But I'm telling you that it is going to make a difference.

00:51:07.000 It can make a difference.

00:51:08.000 And you can see that every day.

00:51:10.000 And it seems like the tide is turning a little bit.

00:51:12.000 For a long time, every day it was this slow and dreadful encroachment moving towards a federal vax mandate.

00:51:20.000 And it feels like just in the past couple of weeks, You're starting to see real organized resistance from unions, public sector, private sector, from workers.

00:51:29.000 You're seeing protests.

00:51:31.000 DeSantis and Abbott are stepping up, and it looks like some other state governments, too.

00:51:36.000 So, this is far from over.

00:51:37.000 And this is something that, you know, we can't turn the tide on this fully.

00:51:41.000 So, that's a Texas court case.

00:51:46.000 And like I said, we're going to follow what goes on in Texas.

00:51:48.000 I'm not extremely optimistic about the legal avenue.

00:51:53.000 You know, I'm not 100% confident that the courts are going to solve this for us because they didn't solve anything for us.

00:52:01.000 They haven't solved gun control.

00:52:02.000 They didn't solve election fraud.

00:52:04.000 They didn't solve anything.

00:52:07.000 Immigration, the border wall, we could go on and on and on.

00:52:11.000 And I don't know that they're going to come back and shut down the vaccine mandate.

00:52:15.000 Where were they when the lockdown happened?

00:52:16.000 You know, I mean, how about that?

00:52:18.000 I'm pretty sure it was unconstitutional for the CDC to shut down every private business in America, but that's gone on for two years now almost.

00:52:27.000 So, I don't know if I place a lot of faith in the courts that they're going to shut down a vaccine mandate.

00:52:31.000 I don't think much has changed.

00:52:33.000 So, we'll keep an eye on it.

00:52:36.000 But I think the bigger thing is going to be the strikes.

00:52:40.000 We're going to move on.

00:52:41.000 We're going to take a look at our super chats and we'll see what you guys are saying about all of this.

00:52:46.000 I'm just dying to know.

00:52:49.000 It's your turn now.

00:52:50.000 And now we get to hear from you, the audience, about what is your take on Dave Chappelle and Texas and these crazy, these wacky vaccines and all that.

00:53:01.000 We'll see.

00:53:09.000 We got our San Pellegrino out.

00:53:14.000 And we got the Super Chats up.

00:53:17.000 You know what I think it is?

00:53:22.000 You know what I think it is in the studio? 0.99

00:53:24.000 It says damn echo. 0.99

00:53:25.000 That's the problem. 0.99

00:53:27.000 Because I told you lately, I've been doing the show, and my voice is strained, and I feel a little discombobulated.

00:53:32.000 I have this new setup, and the lights are brighter, and the echo is louder.

00:53:39.000 And now I feel like I'm yelling.

00:53:40.000 I'm straining my voice, and now my throat hurts.

00:53:45.000 And I can't really see the camera because I got this blinding light right in my face.

00:53:50.000 So I might have to make some adjustments because I've been sitting here the past couple of shows.

00:53:53.000 I'm like not feeling it.

00:53:55.000 And look, the show's been good since I moved over.

00:53:58.000 I feel like I'm not in my element.

00:54:00.000 I feel like I'm totally out of my element.

00:54:04.000 So I don't know if that's in my head or if that's real, but I don't feel myself.

00:54:10.000 I don't know if it's because the echo is like.

00:54:12.000 It's making me hear myself, and it's not.

00:54:17.000 Maybe I feel like I'm not loud enough, so I'm yelling, and I don't know.

00:54:23.000 Maybe it's this chair, maybe the height is off.

00:54:25.000 Is it the height is off by a millimeter and it's messing with my head?

00:54:28.000 I don't know, but anyway.

00:54:39.000 That's just my feeling.

00:54:43.000 Slow news week.

00:54:44.000 Yeah, I guess it's that.

00:54:45.000 But it's not really that.

00:54:47.000 It's not just the news.

00:54:48.000 We always have a slow news week. 1.00

00:54:53.000 Echo is very annoying.

00:54:54.000 Yeah, I'm not asking about that.

00:54:56.000 I'm asking about how it affects me, actually.

00:55:02.000 Man, I regret reading the live chat.

00:55:04.000 It's because no Curtis.

00:55:06.000 Awesome.

00:55:09.000 So that one's dead.

00:55:10.000 That one's dead already.

00:55:13.000 The green screen and audio is off.

00:55:15.000 Yeah, that's not really what I'm asking, but whatever.

00:55:17.000 Let's see.

00:55:17.000 Let's just read our super chats.

00:55:20.000 Let's see what we got.

00:55:21.000 We'll take a look here.

00:55:24.000 Always a mistake.

00:55:25.000 Every time I read the live chat, instant regret.

00:55:28.000 Instant regret.

00:55:30.000 I don't know. 0.99

00:55:32.000 Damn, Nick, you're just realizing this? 0.99

00:55:34.000 No, no. 0.99

00:55:36.000 I think I said it literally the first night I did the show with the new setup.

00:55:39.000 I'm just saying how it's affecting me because I feel like I'm yelling.

00:55:44.000 So, whatever.

00:55:51.000 All right, yeah, big mistake.

00:55:52.000 Let's just read the super chats. 0.98

00:55:55.000 Catholic goober says liberals be all about if you're idolizing them, you're missing the point when talking about Joker or Patrick Bateman, but then say shit like heaven sounds boring and that Satan is the good guy. 0.99

00:56:10.000 I don't get it. 0.99

00:56:12.000 If you're idolizing them about Joker and Patrick Bateman, but then say heaven sounds boring and Satan is the eye.

00:56:17.000 I guess that's comparable, kind of.

00:56:20.000 Brian says, Got back from my military deployment today, and my wife dragged me to the mall.

00:56:24.000 She told me she vaccinated after work last week. 1.00

00:56:28.000 Had to set her straight and tell her what an idiot she is. 1.00

00:56:30.000 Oh, well, is this just bait at this point? 1.00

00:56:33.000 Yeah, that's got to be bait.

00:56:34.000 I got back from the military, wife dragged me to the mall, and she was, okay, that's that. 0.98

00:56:39.000 Nice bait. 1.00

00:56:40.000 Nice try.

00:56:45.000 Boy, now we got six. 1.00

00:56:48.000 Seven super chats from Jews Stay Killing Christ. 1.00

00:56:50.000 I think I'm just going to skip over that. 0.99

00:56:54.000 Bleach says, excited for the New York event.

00:56:56.000 Thanks for remembering us.

00:56:57.000 Seems like everything else was in the Midwest or the South.

00:57:01.000 Midwest or the South?

00:57:02.000 What are you talking about?

00:57:05.000 Midwest, when's the last time we did anything in the South?

00:57:09.000 Or the Midwest for that matter?

00:57:11.000 For White Boy Summer, we were in Las Vegas, LA, Phoenix, and Texas.

00:57:17.000 So that's not the South or the Midwest.

00:57:20.000 And then for anti vax, we did Springfield, which is, I guess that's Midwest.

00:57:24.000 So I don't know what you're talking about.

00:57:28.000 But yeah, we've never done anything in New York because, you know, Stop the Steal was focused on swing states.

00:57:36.000 So there's no swing state.

00:57:37.000 You know, New York's obviously not a swing state.

00:57:40.000 And White Boy Summer, the reason we did that is we had a few things to do in Phoenix and Texas.

00:57:48.000 So we just made a road trip out of it.

00:57:49.000 But yeah, New York, we have, there's nothing going on there.

00:57:53.000 Trump supporters, for conservatives at least, there's nothing going on there for us.

00:57:57.000 There's no scene.

00:58:00.000 It's enemy territory.

00:58:01.000 People get beat up there.

00:58:02.000 It's Antifa headquarters.

00:58:05.000 Chosen Lie says, What, if any, influences have you taken from Alex Jones in the way you relay your opinions on current events on your show and in general?

00:58:14.000 Love America First and love knowing it's growing each year.

00:58:16.000 Thanks.

00:58:19.000 You know, I would say that probably my biggest influences would be Donald Trump and Sam Hyde, and maybe to some extent like Bill O'Reilly.

00:58:29.000 Those are the people that I watched and I think started to emulate when I started doing this years ago.

00:58:37.000 I'm trying to think if there's anybody else notable, but those really are the big ones.

00:58:43.000 Alex Jones, I mean, I just don't have that same energy.

00:58:46.000 I can't, you know, the stuff that he does, that's really only he can do it.

00:58:51.000 Because other people try to do the, I don't even know what you would call that.

00:58:57.000 But he rides a very fine line where it's entertaining, it's over the top, you can tell it's a joke, but it also is informative.

00:59:05.000 It's a very fine line where, You know, it's still sort of like believable in the sense that some people just don't believe it.

00:59:17.000 I feel like Alex Jones is a real performer.

00:59:21.000 And don't get me wrong, that's not to take away from what Alex Jones says on the show, because this show is very informative.

00:59:26.000 And if you watch the show, he's been right about everything for decades.

00:59:31.000 But there is a performative element to it, there's an entertainment element to it.

00:59:36.000 And there's something subtle about the way in which he plays it up.

00:59:41.000 You know, when he does things that are sensational and when he does these kinds of stunts, there's something very subtle about it where there's a suspension of disbelief where you watch the show and you go, Is this guy for real?

00:59:53.000 And there's, of course, a kernel.

00:59:55.000 There's always truth in there.

00:59:57.000 And sometimes he plays it up and exaggerates. 0.91

01:00:00.000 But the exaggerated part of it, you have to wonder sometimes, Is this guy just as crazy?

01:00:05.000 And that's part of the entertainment.

01:00:07.000 Now, some people think that what Alex Jones does is just gratuitous, crazy, you know?

01:00:15.000 And people just start talking about goblins and vampires, and like almost every parody or imitation of Alex Jones is a failure because they lack this kind of subtlety.

01:00:26.000 I don't exactly know what it is, but he strikes this balance.

01:00:31.000 He plays this sort of character or plays an exaggerated version of himself.

01:00:37.000 Only he can do it.

01:00:38.000 I've only ever seen him do it well.

01:00:39.000 So I don't really try to emulate him.

01:00:42.000 I think if I did, it would come across very obviously that that's what I'm trying to do.

01:00:46.000 And that goes with anybody.

01:00:48.000 Anybody trying to imitate Alex Jones, it's obvious.

01:00:50.000 It's like, yeah, you're a second rate Alex Jones, you know?

01:00:56.000 So I don't think that's even my style, but I definitely couldn't do it better than him.

01:01:00.000 I don't want to be, you know, an inferior Alex Jones, you know?

01:01:04.000 Because he's already the best at what he does.

01:01:07.000 So, no, I don't really.

01:01:09.000 He's not a huge influence on me.

01:01:14.000 But I'm a big fan, of course.

01:01:16.000 I used to watch his show every day when I was in high school.

01:01:20.000 And a little bit in college, of course, during the election.

01:01:24.000 And I still watch them occasionally, but I don't really watch a lot of content these days.

01:01:28.000 I got a lot of stuff going on, but I do watch them.

01:01:31.000 I watch clips from a show and stuff.

01:01:33.000 But I guess, you know, what Alex Jones shows is that this is entertainment.

01:01:39.000 Fundamentally, this is entertainment.

01:01:41.000 People think it's political, but it's really entertainment.

01:01:45.000 Politics is the substance of it, but entertainment is the genre.

01:01:48.000 So.

01:01:50.000 I think he proves that.

01:01:54.000 Morgan says whale watching on Jaden's stream last night was so cozy.

01:01:59.000 Thank you for putting this together.

01:02:00.000 Cozy.tv is inevitable.

01:02:02.000 Thank you.
