00:01:40.000Matt Walsh, who works for Daily Wire, which is a nominally, okay, in name only, they are a conservative publication.
00:01:48.000He started a fundraiser for AOC, Alexandria Ocasio Cortez's grandmother, because earlier this week, AOC posted a picture of.
00:01:59.000Her grandmother's dilapidated house in Puerto Rico.
00:02:03.000And AOC said that the people in Puerto Rico are not getting the relief that they need, and that's Donald Trump's fault, and it's Donald Trump's fault and Republicans' fault that Puerto Rico's a shithole and that her grandma is living in this terrible place.
00:02:19.000So the premise here is this AOC is a rich congresswoman and she's on TV and everything, so she should be able to take care of her grandma.
00:02:29.000So conservatives, as sort of an affront to her, Are raising money charitably to give to her grandma to prove some kind of a point.
00:02:45.000And it's basically supposed to make AOC look like a deadbeat.1.00
00:02:48.000If she's rich, if she's a congresswoman, if she's famous, and she can't take care of her grandma, well, then conservatives will step up and do it.1.00
00:02:56.000And again, that's supposed to prove some kind of a point.
00:03:08.000There's nobody that's really based except for the Groypers.0.97
00:03:11.000I was just saying last week that I was impressed by what Matt Walsh did in the Daily Wire backstage roundtable when he was actually challenging some of the Israel First orthodoxy that was being pushed by his bosses, by Jeremy Boring and Ben Shapiro.0.82
00:03:30.000And not a week later, he's literally fundraising for our enemy's grandmother, our enemy's family.
00:03:38.000I also want to talk tonight about Governor Greg Abbott, who is taking control of the immigration situation in Texas.
00:03:46.000He passed a disaster declaration, or issued, I should say, a disaster declaration, which will give him new jurisdiction to handle the crisis on the southern border.
00:03:57.000And the story in this case is not so much just about this particular instance in this particular state, but it's about the path forward for the country, which is this strategy.
00:04:11.000Separated from the particulars and the specifics, what I mean is Republican governors taking control of the situation, taking power from the federal government, taking responsibilities from the federal government, and handling their own situation and passing policies that are conservative in spite of a potentially indefinitely liberal democratic federal government.
00:04:48.000I got to tell you, you know, today I did an episode of Good Morning Groyper this afternoon, and I just was solo today.
00:04:55.000I took some calls, and it was interesting because before I went live on Good Morning Groyper today, my Twitter account had been locked for seven days.
00:05:05.000I woke up, and this is my Friday morning surprise.
00:05:09.000I wake up, I try to like a tweet, and it tells me that I'm locked out of my account for seven days.
00:05:17.000It didn't say, well, here's a tweet you violated, and I said this on the show this morning.
00:05:21.000This afternoon, I said, usually when you get locked out of your Twitter account, they say, well, you have to delete this tweet which violated the rules, and then you can proceed to the timeline and you have limited functionality for a period of time.
00:05:37.000What usually would happen in my case when I get banned for seven days is that I would open up my Twitter account and it would prompt me to delete offending tweets, violating tweets, and then it would say, you can proceed to Twitter, but you can't like, retweet, tweet.
00:05:54.000Share images, follow, block, you know, etc.
00:05:57.000You can proceed to Twitter but with limited functionality now that you've deleted the offending content.
00:08:13.000If you missed the episode of Good Morning Groyper today, you can go to NicholasJFuentes.com and you could subscribe to my website and you get access to every episode of Good Morning Groyper plus every episode of America First plus gaming streams, speeches, interviews, debates.
00:08:29.000It's all up there for just 10 bucks a month, so check that out.
00:08:32.000Also, follow me on Telegram at t.meslash nickjfuentes if you want to catch next week's episode.
00:08:40.000Next week, I'll be having Bryson Gray on the show.
00:08:43.000Bryson Gray will be on Good Morning Groyper next week, so that's very exciting.
00:09:13.000I was about to jump in, but I have one more thing to tell you.
00:09:16.000So we have, I believe, 80 to 90% of all merch orders have now been fulfilled.
00:09:23.000So, if you ordered a hat, an America First hat, which you remember we actually sold out of those a few weeks ago, if you ordered a hat anytime between, I think it's April 27th when we launched them, and May 15th, your order has been fulfilled.
00:09:40.000So, you should have gotten a confirmation email and you should be getting your hat within a few days.
00:10:13.000And by the end of next week, they should all be done.
00:10:17.000Assistant Kroiper's been a rock star, he's been on top of it, he's been really going through all of them.
00:10:24.000And so, if you don't get your hat by the end of next week, shoot us, actually, go to our website, merch.nicholasjfuentes.com, and fill out a support ticket.
00:10:33.000And if you fill out a support ticket, then we can get back to you and sort out your situation.
00:10:37.000And that's if, that's only if you don't get a confirmation email by the end of next week and you ordered a hat, okay?
00:10:45.000So, and again, just want to remind you the reason for the delay is because it just took us a long time to process our e checks.
00:10:52.000E checks are a little bit more complicated than credit cards.
00:10:55.000So, We've been processing them as soon as we can, but it's just a matter of working with the bank, working with our processor, and getting those processed in a speedy way.
00:11:06.000And I know it's not as instantaneous as credit card or cryptocurrency.
00:11:11.000We processed our Litecoin transactions almost immediately.
00:11:16.000So if you bought your hat with Litecoin on our pay server, on our Litecoin pay server, then your order was shipped out first almost immediately.
00:11:24.000If you did eCheck, it does take a little longer.
00:11:26.000That's more convenient for you, probably, to do eCheck.
00:11:31.000So it just takes some time to process.
00:11:33.000But like I said, by the end of the week, that should be done, and we'll be getting another shipment of hats, and hopefully we can restock very soon.
00:12:35.000And I want you to pay close attention to Florida, Texas, other Republican states, other states with a Republican governor, I should say, because this, I believe, is the future for America first.
00:12:48.000I think this is the future for any kind of resistance to the globalist elite, to the globalist American empire, whatever you want to call it, the American regime.
00:13:29.000They're not forcing illegal migrants to remain in Mexico if they have an asylum application.
00:13:36.000We are just not enforcing the border at all.0.94
00:13:38.000And so, as a consequence, People are pouring across every day more and more with each passing month.
00:13:44.000And it also sends a message to people from the Northern Triangle countries of Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras, as well as people from all around the world, by the way, people in the Middle East and people in Asia and people in Eastern Europe, that all you have to do to reside in America permanently is fly to Mexico and literally walk right across the border.
00:14:06.000So it's bad enough that they're not enforcing it because the people that Already would have crossed the border are getting in.
00:14:13.000But what's more is when you don't enforce the laws on the border, and this is a very important principle about immigration when you don't enforce, when you even talk about amnesty, when you talk about not enforcing the border, it incentivizes more people than ever before to consider and follow through with coming to Mexico to cross over the border.
00:14:37.000We had record high illegal immigration in March, we had record high illegal immigration in April.
00:14:43.000And when I say record high, I mean numbers that we haven't seen in 20 years.
00:14:49.000Think about how bad immigration was under George W. Bush, how bad it was under Barack Obama, even how bad it was under Donald Trump in, I think it was May of 2019.
00:15:02.000Donald Trump presided over one of the worst months for illegal immigration in 20 years.
00:15:09.000So it was bad enough, in other words, for the past three administrations.
00:15:29.000And so in Texas, finally, Governor Greg Abbott has issued this emergency declaration to get control of the border.
00:15:35.000And I'll read this report to you about what he's doing.
00:15:38.000It says, quote, on June 1st, 2021, Texas Governor Greg Abbott issued a disaster declaration in southern Texas.
00:15:46.000The intention of the declaration was to increase the number of resources being sent to the border.
00:15:51.000During a time when migrant inflows have been on the rise.
00:15:55.000According to a report by Kaylee Greenlee at the Daily Caller, it says, Law enforcement officials were directed to prosecute illegal immigrants under applicable federal and state criminal laws, including smuggling, human trafficking, and trespassing, according to Abbott in a press release.
00:16:14.000Abbott argued that illegal aliens are infringing on private property rights and attacking landowners.
00:16:19.000Abbott said, Biden's open border policies have paved the way for dangerous gangs and cartels.
00:16:25.000Human traffickers and deadly drugs like fentanyl to pour into our communities.
00:16:29.000Meanwhile, landowners along the border are seeing their property damaged and vandalized on a daily basis, while the Biden administration does nothing to protect them.
00:16:39.000The press release also noted Texas continues to step up to confront the border crisis in the federal government's absence, but more must be done.
00:16:47.000Abbott directed the Texas Health and Human Services Commission to shut down all federally contracted detention facilities that house illegal immigrants.
00:16:55.000These included facilities that hold unaccompanied children.
00:16:58.000Thanks to a waiver from the Texas Commission on Jail Standards and the Texas Commission on Law Enforcement, Counties now have the power to designate alternative facilities to detain illegal immigrants or expand capacity according to their needs.
00:17:12.000So, like I said, I actually don't know to what extent this is going to make a difference because, at the end of the day, it is the federal government that has jurisdiction over the southern border.
00:17:28.000The Constitution delegates power to the federal government, not the state governments, to handle.
00:17:34.000National security, to handle relations with other states, and to handle the business of citizenship and non citizens.
00:17:41.000So, this is a constitutional matter, and the federal government is really on a technical legal level, they're the ones that can solve this problem.
00:17:50.000I don't know to what extent state governments are truly going to be able to step in and make a difference.
00:17:56.000That being said, this is an important thing to keep in mind as we go further down the rabbit hole with demographic change, with this electoral winter, which is to say, Formerly Republican states becoming Democratic because of demographic changes and therefore changes to the mix of voters in a particular state.
00:18:18.000And so, as the country becomes more non white, and as the country, as a consequence of that, becomes more Democratic, and we get to a point where it's just not competitive for a conservative to win the presidency or for conservatives to control the Senate or even the House or the Supreme Court, we're going to have to figure out how are we going to create a society.0.74
00:18:40.000How are we going to create places where we can live where we will not be subject to total control by an American regime which is liberal, hates white people, and sees us as their enemies?0.75
00:18:55.000And for a long time, people said, well, there is no solution to this problem.
00:18:59.000The solution to this problem is either to fight the government in the streets and have some kind of a revolution or a civil war, or the solution is to move to another country or to break apart from.
00:19:13.000The American government, break apart from the American system.
00:19:18.000And I think there's a sort of middle category.
00:19:21.000There's another category that people aren't thinking about, which is if we can't compete on the federal level, which may be a reality.
00:19:29.000I mean, we're working towards that on strictly a mathematical basis.
00:19:34.000It's almost certain, it's almost inevitable that we will arrive at that point.
00:19:39.000When is a matter of a lot of different variables, but it seems almost like a mathematical certainty that we will get to the point very soon.
00:19:48.000When Republicans and therefore somebody who is even nominally conservative cannot hold office in the federal government.
00:19:56.000And particularly when it comes to the legislature, could not become the majority, could not pass laws, could not have legislative power meaningfully, executive power or judicial power.
00:20:07.000And so people say, well, then there's no solution, or we have to move, or we have to fight, or something like that.
00:20:17.000This is going to be the realignment that has to occur, the reorientation and strategy, which is to say that, of course, in America, we don't just have separation of powers between the three branches of the federal government the judicial, executive, and legislative branches but we also have a separation of powers between state governments and the federal government as an entire entity.
00:20:41.000All three branches of federal government and the 50 state governments.
00:20:45.000And in particular, the Constitution says, in the I think it's a ninth or tenth amendment, Says that all the, I think it's the 10th Amendment, right?
00:20:52.000It's been a while since I was like a constitutional conservative, so I gotta dust off the cobwebs on that.
00:20:58.000The 10th Amendment says that powers that have not been explicitly delegated to the federal government by the Constitution go towards the states.
00:21:06.000Now, the Constitution will matter less and less over time once we have a liberal Supreme Court and once the federal government no longer sees it as valid, which is almost already the case.
00:21:18.000But nevertheless, it provides a legal basis and therefore legitimacy.
00:21:24.000To a state government resisting the power of the federal government.
00:21:28.000The state government going in a different direction than the federal government.
00:21:31.000And you've already seen this on display in states like Florida.
00:21:35.000Of course, that's the best example with Governor Ron DeSantis.0.68
00:21:39.000But also, even in liberal states where they decided to roll back the prohibition of marijuana, prohibition of same sex marriage years ago.
00:21:47.000Obviously, those are examples that are where states have diverged from federal government in a bad way.
00:21:55.000But there are examples nonetheless of state governments creating a different society within their state than would necessarily be the case if the federal government were the end all be all of government.
00:22:06.000And so all of this is to say I take a look at this emergency declaration on immigration, and we've got a situation now where we're stuck with Biden or Harris for the next four years.
00:22:18.000They will not enforce control over the border, they will not turn illegal immigrants away.
00:22:23.000They are not going to detain them.0.98
00:22:24.000They are going to catch them, release them, they're going to let them walk right across.0.97
00:22:29.000By the millions when all is said and done.0.99
00:22:47.000And so while this might not be a huge step, this is evidence that maybe there's a different approach where if we can't get back in the White House, if we can't get in the Speaker's chair or control the Senate or something, what we can do.
00:23:02.000Is concentrate our numbers in conservative states like Florida or Idaho or Arizona or Texas or Wyoming or Montana or the Dakotas or someplace.
00:23:14.000And if we can concentrate our numbers in these states, and then if we can't elect a president, we can elect a governor there and a state legislature there, then we can have a little bit more control over the kind of society that we live in.
00:23:28.000And there's kind of two, there's a little bit of a rub here because I understand some people might.
00:23:33.000Think about what I'm saying, and they might say, Oh, that's pretty hokey because the Constitution is irrelevant.
00:23:39.000The government does not abide by the Constitution, so they will not respect states' rights.
00:23:45.000It's a nice idea, but the government will just come in and they will enforce what they want.
00:23:50.000They don't enforce, for example, marijuana prohibition in Colorado because the federal government is ultimately interested in that happening.
00:24:13.000As far as the constitutional argument goes, it is essential, it is essential for anything to change.
00:24:21.000That if we go to a state like Texas, for example, or Florida, and we start to create our own society, it is essential that we have perceived legitimacy in how we act, in how we operate.
00:24:48.000But it is a very important thing that as things begin to fall apart, if people like us rise up and take power in a state government, and when I say rise up and take power, I don't mean in a violent way.
00:25:02.000I mean to say that if there is some kind of a conflict in this country politically, if there's some kind of a constitutional crisis or something like that between Washington, D.C. and a state government, it is imperative.
00:25:14.000That we have legitimacy or at least perceived legitimacy to act in the way that we are.
00:25:20.000And that's because all authority, all state authority rests on force and legitimacy.
00:25:26.000We don't have more force than the federal government.
00:25:29.000The federal government has drones and they have a mercenary army and they have a spying apparatus, and I don't need to tell you what they're capable of.
00:25:37.000They've got jet fighters and aircraft carriers and tanks, and we cannot challenge them on the basis of force.
00:25:45.000What we can challenge them on is the basis of.
00:25:48.000Their legitimacy on the basis of the legitimacy of their rule.
00:25:52.000And this is what the original Civil War was actually about.
00:25:55.000State governments were breaking apart from D.C. because, you know, there was this clash about to what extent do states' rights go how far, basically, in determining things about slavery.
00:26:11.000And, you know, at the time, you had states that were just outright nullifying federal laws.
00:26:17.000States were saying, okay, well, the federal government says you have to do this, and, you know, we just disagree.
00:26:22.000And so it was a crisis about what the role of the federal government would be, to what extent can states have autonomy.
00:26:29.000I guess that's the word I'm looking for.
00:26:31.000And then, of course, states were breaking apart.
00:26:34.000A new country was formed, an army was raised.
00:26:38.000You know, there was this sort of institutional breaking apart from America because these institutions and the people believed in the legitimacy of their right to do this.
00:26:49.000They thought, well, we're following the Constitution, we're following the laws.
00:26:53.000We're the ones that are abiding by what the war for independence was all about.
00:26:57.000We're the ones that are abiding by the Constitution and the real principles of the founding and so on.
00:27:03.000And so they said, you know, we've got a right, we've got a legal basis, we've got legitimacy to do this.
00:27:11.000Now, I'm not, you know, I don't want people to read too much into that.
00:27:14.000I'm not advocating for that right out of the gate here.
00:27:18.000I'm not saying we should go into state governments with the intention of seceding, although I think that, honestly, that may be a possibility down the road.
00:27:26.000We may be headed towards something like that.
00:27:29.000But I am saying that for people to reclaim control over their lives and over their country, we are going to need a sort of legal basis.
00:27:38.000We're going to need a legitimate basis to rule in any kind of institution, whether that's a state government or, you know, even if we got to the federal government in the very short window of time that I think that that's still possible, we would need legitimacy as a basis.
00:27:54.000So don't discount the fact that the Constitution would allow for this.
00:27:57.000Don't discount the fact that it is perfectly legal.
00:28:00.000To do what Ron DeSantis is doing, or what Governor Greg Abbott is doing, or what a lot of different Republican governors should be doing.
00:28:07.000We should get all the Republican governors together and, again, concentrate our numbers in Republican states and demand that they start to do the things that a Democratic federal government will never do, or even a Republican federal government would never do.
00:28:21.000Like, for example, why can't Florida say Facebook is banned from the state of Florida?
00:28:28.000Facebook is banned from the state of Florida.
00:28:41.000And this kind of leads me to my second point.
00:28:43.000Not only is there a legal basis for this, it's constitutional, and that would give a Republican or a conservative sort of autonomous government credibility and legitimacy.
00:28:57.000But also, I think there's another argument too, which some people might say well, wouldn't the federal government just shut that down?
00:29:05.000And I think that there's two reasons why that might not necessarily be the case.
00:29:09.000Number one, I would be hard pressed to imagine that Washington, D.C. would send troops to put down a democratically elected state government.
00:29:20.000I think that that's probably possible.
00:29:24.000I don't think anybody could imagine something like that today.
00:29:26.000I don't know that the federal government would send military into Texas to make them not enforce the border.
00:29:34.000I don't know that the military would be sent into Florida.
00:29:37.000Into Tallahassee to stop the DeSantis governorship, the DeSantis administration from banning vaccine mandates.
00:29:45.000I don't think that it's likely that that would happen.
00:29:47.000And what's more, in the event that there was some kind of a direct clash between a state government and a federal government, maybe not even necessarily sending a national guard or something, but just legally, I think that the federal government, because it is becoming more and more incompetent, because it's DMV type employees that are working there, because the federal government is going in the direction that the overall society is going.
00:30:12.000Which is that it's not working, it's becoming dysfunctional and incompetent, their ability to project power will recede.
00:30:20.000Because they are less functional, because they are filled with just incompetent people, their ability to maintain total control over the country, like some people surmise might be the case, I think that that will diminish over time.
00:30:35.000And so even their bureaucratic ability to legally challenge Texas, legally challenge Florida, to go through That whole process, I think that their ability to even do that, to even concern themselves with that, would be diminished because we're going to get to the point where the country is so dysfunctional and the government is so dysfunctional that the country is going to become less governable than ever before in American history.
00:31:02.000And as the ability of the federal government to govern the country recedes, an opportunity arises for other institutions to step in and govern in their wake.
00:31:14.000And that could be a variety of different kinds of institutions.
00:31:17.000That could be in some places criminal gangs.
00:31:20.000That could be in some cases private companies may build their own cities, may build their own habitats.
00:31:27.000And that also could be, and I think most legitimately, state governments.
00:31:32.000So, you know, some people might have some contentions about this and say, well, the government would shut that down.
00:31:37.000The government would never allow that.
00:32:00.000And what's more is if there ever was a clash between the federal government and the state governments, we would have the legal basis, we would have legitimacy.
00:32:09.000And I think that a highly competent state government or coalition of state governments in the future could be more competent and more efficient than the federal government.
00:32:21.000If we concentrate our numbers in a few states or maybe dozens of states, Republican governed states, if we have a highly efficient, organized, competent system, I think that it would be difficult for the federal government to impose their way on those states.
00:32:39.000And so, again, I don't know what the ultimate outcome of doing something like that would be.
00:32:43.000It could be a split, it could be secession, it could be sort of like the Eastern and the Western Roman Empire.
00:32:49.000You know, it could be like a dual monarchy or something.
00:32:52.000We don't have to necessarily know what that would look like in 100 years.
00:33:01.000All that we have to know is that in the very, very short term, if federal government is not as accessible, state government will be.
00:33:09.000And insofar as state government is accessible, that is a place where people who are not okay with the direction of the country can go and create conditions in these places where our people want to live.
00:33:22.000If we can't make Chicago or New York or LA the way that we want it to be, because you can't become the mayor of Chicago, if we can't make America the way we want it to be, because you can't become The president of America, and even if you do, it doesn't really matter.
00:33:37.000Well, maybe what we can do is get control of a state legislature, get control of a governor's mansion.
00:33:43.000And if we do that, then we can, and within reason, we can't totally turn things around, but we could begin to work to dismantle some of these terrible laws, policies, trends that we've seen.
00:33:54.000And that's something to me which is practical, pragmatic, it's a viable path forward.
00:33:59.000And also, it's something that if you do consider the long term, if you do consider the ultimate trajectory of doing something like that, It's viable in the long term, too.
00:34:09.000And we don't have to game that out tonight.
00:34:11.000That's maybe another conversation, and maybe a conversation which I don't know how candid you could be having a conversation like that.
00:34:18.000But if you were to game that out in the long term, I don't know that that would be the worst idea in the world.
00:34:24.000So, you know, originally I was reading about that kind of approach, and I was like, yeah, yeah, I don't know how practical that is.
00:34:30.000People would ask me questions on the show and say, what if Texas seceded?
00:34:34.000And I would say, that's not really practical.
00:35:03.000But just doing that in itself, I don't know that we have to be married to the idea of what if Texas seceded, but let's just take it one step at a time.
00:35:11.000And the more that I think about it, the more that I see where the country's headed under Biden and with everything that's happening demographically, the more that I think maybe that could be a viable path forward.
00:35:22.000So I look at this particular emergency disaster declaration in Texas.
00:35:27.000Like I said, I don't know on this particular issue how much mileage we're going to get out of that.
00:35:31.000I don't know to what extent Abbott can really secure the border without the help or even cooperation of the federal government.
00:36:56.000This is not really like a major, major news story or anything, but it's something that to me is kind of important to talk about.
00:37:07.000It's important to touch on because this encapsulates basically everything that we've been saying about conservatives from the beginning, about the mainstream GOP, mainstream conservative movement, which is, you know, we'll explain in the story what this means.
00:37:23.000But so to summarize the situation, I'm sure you've seen something about this on social media, Twitter, if you pay attention to that.
00:37:31.000Alexandria Ocasio Cortez visited her grandmother in Puerto Rico this week, and she found that her grandmother was basically living in squalor.
00:37:40.000That her, I think it was her house or the apartment she was living in, was totally destroyed from the hurricane and just dilapidated.
00:37:49.000And AOC gets on Twitter and posts pictures of it and says, This just goes to show that Puerto Rico is still reeling from the hurricane, and they're reeling from the hurricane because of Trump, and, uh, In short, you know, my grandmother is living like shit because of Trump, because the government is racist and won't help Puerto Rico.
00:38:08.000And a lot of people rightly pointed out they said, well, you know, hey, aren't you like a rich congresswoman?
00:38:14.000Aren't you like a famous rich congresswoman with millions of followers on social media?0.99
00:38:20.000And you're a millionaire, and you live in New York City and D.C., and you're like a celebrity politician.
00:38:25.000And so, you know, so why can't you do anything?
00:38:29.000Yeah, maybe you can't help the whole territory of Puerto Rico, but.
00:38:34.000We're supposed to blame Donald Trump because your grandmother, as like you're a sitting congresswoman, has her ceiling falling apart.
00:38:42.000I mean, like you're telling me, in other words, that's Donald Trump's responsibility and not yours.0.99
00:40:20.000For U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio Cortez's grandmother, after the politician was slammed on Twitter for not helping her abuela enough.
00:40:30.000Ocasio Cortez has tweeted a thread Thursday depicting the conditions of her grandmother's home, which was damaged during Hurricane Maria in 2017, taking aim at the Trump administration for blocking aid to Puerto Rico.
00:40:43.000Walsh was among those quick to fire back at the progressive lawmaker, alleging she was allowing her grandmother to suffer in squalid conditions.
00:40:52.000While she herself lived in posh comfort.
00:40:55.000He said, Shameful that you live in luxury while allowing your own grandmother to suffer in these squalid conditions.
00:41:02.000Ocasio Cortez shot back at Walsh that he doesn't even have a concept for the role that first generation, first born daughters play in their families.
00:41:11.000My abuela is okay, but instead of only caring for mine and letting others suffer, I'm calling attention to the systemic injustices that you seem totally fine with in having a U.S. colony, she wrote.
00:41:24.000Shortly after, Walsh facetiously launched the GoFundMe, stating that one cannot be certain of the cost to repair grandma's house, but surely most of the work could be completed for the price of AOC's shiny Tesla Model 3.
00:41:39.000As of Friday late afternoon, the fundraiser had received $56,000 in donations from conservatives to AOC's abuela.
00:41:51.000But keep in mind, the money was raised sarcastically.
00:41:58.000Matt Walsh's intention was not to raise the money unironically.
00:42:03.000He raised $50,000 in real transactions, in real money that real conservatives paid out of their real bank accounts, but he did it facetiously.
00:42:25.000That's supposed to prove a point, I guess.
00:42:27.000The point is to show that AOC is a hypocrite.0.85
00:42:30.000Because AOC spends lots of money on herself, but she doesn't spend money on her family, and she says that her family is suffering because of racism.
00:42:39.000So, by raising money for her, by raising $50,000 for her grandmother from gullible conservatives, that's supposed to prove like a big point.
00:42:51.000And I debated a little bit with Cassandra Fairbanks about this on Twitter, and I like Cassandra.
00:42:57.000Cassandra said that, Cassandra Fairbanks from the Gateway Pundit, of course, She said, Well, probably AOC's abuela won't get the money because, in order for the recipient to get the money, the recipient of a GoFundMe project to get the money, they have to accept it.
00:43:15.000So either the abuela accepts it and AOC looks terrible, or the abuela turns it down and AOC looks bad because she won't help her grandma.
00:43:28.000And I'm thinking, you know, like, yeah, that very well may be true.
00:43:31.000Like, I understand the joke, I understand what they're doing.
00:43:35.000But then I also think about the 400 plus people that have been charged in connection with the Capitol riot on January 6th.
00:43:44.000And these are poor white people, poor white Trump supporters, Trump voters that spent their meager paychecks to fly out to D.C. on January 6th to demonstrate for the president, got caught up in some kind of federal honeypot operation, some kind of sting.
00:44:04.000They have been hunted down, hunted down by the FBI and the DOJ, thousands of lawyers, hundreds of FBI agents working around the clock to charge these people, in some cases getting felony charges.
00:44:16.000They carry a 20 year sentence for trespassing.
00:44:20.000They're being held in solitary confinement before they even have their trial for trespassing, for a nonviolent, in some cases, misdemeanor crime, held for months without trial in solitary confinement.
00:44:34.000And it's with that as the backdrop, with the Biden administration full on persecuting people, with the full weight of the FBI, the Department of Justice, it's with the backdrop of conservatives under attack all across the country, not just the Capitol rioters, but Trump supporters, people that donate money to Kyle Rittenhouse's GoFundMe.
00:44:55.000It's people that have been victimized by BLM, people that have been victimized by black crime.0.71
00:46:17.000My sense of humor is sort of directed.
00:46:19.000There's sort of this level of decorum.
00:46:24.000Feel that way about like the Holocaust and about slavery and about race or whatever.
00:46:28.000I feel that way about things that are actually serious.
00:46:30.000You know, I would never joke about like my religion in a way that's inappropriate.
00:46:34.000I would never joke about, you know, a lot of things that I think are inappropriate based on our deeply held values.
00:46:41.000So when this is going on right now in the country where it's people that I know, it's many people that I know are having, they're literally being followed in their car by the FBI.
00:46:52.000It's people that are, like I said, in solitary confinement.
00:46:55.000People that are really in a pickle here, really to say the least, in a jam here, have their whole life destroyed and turned upside down, faces plastered all over social media.
00:47:05.000And you at Daily Wire, you at Turning Point USA, are raising $50,000 as a joke for our enemy, AOC, who hates us, who wants to see us all dead, who is an enemy of our nation, wants to destroy our way of life and our country.0.62
00:47:21.000You want to raise money for her foreign grandmother, Puerto Rico, I mean, let's be real.
00:47:27.000Yeah, it's technically a part of America, but it's not a state.0.76
00:47:31.000And like that even matters, our enemy's grandmother who doesn't even live on the land in the continental United States, really?
00:47:38.000And that's supposed to be funny to me?
00:47:41.000People that have not raised a finger to help anybody that's been victimized by BLM, by the Capitol, by the FBI, anything like that, really?
00:47:49.000And by the way, there's another element to this, which is this Matt Walsh may have started the fundraiser as a joke, and maybe these people are promoting it as a joke, and they're really having a great time.
00:48:04.000It's very easy to have a great time when you're Matt Walsh and you bring in no money because your show makes no money to Daily Wire, but you get paid handsomely anyway.
00:48:56.000But rake in the money, appear on Fox News.
00:48:58.000So when you're one of these people, or you're Ben Shapiro making millions, or you're Charlie Kirk making millions, drifting off of your nonprofit, drifting off of Turning Point USA and billionaires, and you've got houses all over the country and fancy cars, I'm sure it's really, really funny.
00:49:18.000I'm sure that's hilarious when $50,000 is chump change to you as one of these people.
00:49:24.000But if you go and you look at the GoFundMe and you look at the people that have donated to this, the conservatives, of which there are thousands of people, thousands of conservative people that follow Daily Wire and Turning Point and Fox and all the usual suspects, the thousands of conservative donors that put up the $50,000 for this, they don't think it's a joke.
00:49:45.000And if you go on the GoFundMe page and read their comments, because on the GoFundMe platform you can leave a comment with your donation, a lot of them don't know that it's a joke.
00:49:56.000They're in the comments saying that they're giving hundreds or tens of dollars, again, out of their own pocket, real money that they put in.
00:50:58.000You know, Wendy, who sounds like somebody who's maybe older or something, I don't know, we don't have to make assumptions like that.
00:51:04.000But here you've got a well meaning conservative, you've got probably a decent, nice, Christian, conservative person who is hated, who is hated for who she is by the media, by the government, by AOC, somebody who the media wants dead.
00:51:20.000And think about how they talk about somebody like this.
00:51:22.000Think about how Bill Kristol or Brett Stevens or AOC or Fox News or Van Jones talks about somebody like this.
00:51:31.000They say, well, it's not a question of if white America is dying, it's how long and violent the funeral will be.
00:51:39.000That's what Van Jones said about white Americans.
00:51:43.000Bill Crystal says we need to replace Americans with more grateful Americans from different countries.
00:51:49.000Nancy Pelosi said that her son said for his birthday, for his like eighth birthday, that he wished that he was brown because he hates his white skin.
00:51:59.000This is what our system thinks of people like Wendy.
00:52:24.000I hope, out of the goodness of her heart, out of good faith, and because unfortunately she is naive, because she's being led by people like this down a bad path, she thinks that she's going to donate $50.
00:52:41.000You know, for some people, that's a lot of money.
00:52:44.000For some people, that's not a negligible amount of money.
00:52:47.000Maybe for Charlie Kirk, oh, $50 is what you spend on a bottle of wine or something.
00:52:51.000$50 is what you spend, you know, on Uber Eats feast for all your whores or whatever, right?
00:53:01.000Maybe that sounds crazy, but for some people, $50 is a lot of money.
00:53:06.000This is a person who's donating $50 thinking, well, you know, maybe if we all just show each other a little kindness, we could bring the country together and maybe we could soften their hearts.
00:53:15.000Does anybody think for one second that that's going to happen?
00:53:18.000With AOC and with the deep state and with the American regime.
00:53:23.000It's not a question of warming their hearts with charity.
00:53:45.000They put a video of you up on Twitter and they get you fired from everything, expelled from everything, ostracized from everyone you know.
00:53:52.000And here you've got a well meaning person saying, Well, I'm going to step up and show everybody that conservatives aren't so bad after all.
00:54:12.000And there are hundreds of testimonials just like this on the fundraiser of well meaning conservatives saying, We conservatives are charitable.
00:54:20.000We dig deep to help those in need and blah, blah, blah.
00:54:34.000Shame on Matt Walsh for taking advantage of gullible people for your joke.
00:54:39.000Shame on Charlie Kirk and Ben Shapiro and all these people that are going to put this fundraiser out.
00:54:44.000And don't get me wrong, I've seen this kind of thing happen before where a massive audience will take things the wrong way or not understand a joke.
00:54:52.000But I really have a soft spot for people in this country who.
00:54:56.000Like I said, they have had everything taken away from them.
00:55:00.000All that they have is they can go and watch Fox News.
00:55:04.000They can go and watch their conservative content.
00:55:13.000This is what they have left their sort of parasocial involvement in politics on social media or watching TV or something.
00:55:23.000And they're being taken advantage of by very cynical people, very cynical people who are rich.
00:55:29.000Live in the nice liberal cities and live a nice liberal life and live a life not having to, you know, without having to make much sacrifice in nice houses and, like I said, driving fancy cars.
00:57:20.000And these people will never be told what's really going on in the country.
00:57:23.000These are the kinds of people that will have everything taken away from them while they are put to sleep by people like Matt Walsh, who will never tell them the full truth, never tell them what's really going to happen, never tell them what's really wrong in the country and how to turn it around.
00:59:26.000Innocent people who have nothing, who have no institutional power.
00:59:31.000They put trust in leaders and in public voices, public broadcasters, whatever.
00:59:37.000And every time they just get led astray.
00:59:39.000Every time they get deceived, lied to, stepped on, spit on, stabbed in the back for the benefit of the people that are in these organizations.
00:59:48.000Yeah, you know, Matt Walsh is going to make a lot of money off of this, I'm sure.
00:59:52.000Matt Walsh is going to, hey, he's in the news.
01:00:22.000Can Matt Walsh do a fundraiser for me?
01:00:24.000Can Matt Walsh do a fundraiser for the real American patriot who's been put on the no fly list and has suffered at the hands of the deep state?
01:00:31.000How about a fundraiser for this patriot?
01:01:45.000Nathaniel with four super chats in a row.
01:01:48.000And he's really taking advantage of the character count, too, which is great.
01:01:52.000He says Murdoch, Murdoch, more like Moloch, Moloch.
01:01:56.000If making degenerate cartoons in your spare time could save the West, I'd be giving a tenth of my income to Trey Parker instead of the Archdiocese.
01:02:05.000Nathaniel says if you ever put a woman on Good Morning Groyper instead of me again, you could say goodbye to the cringe $3 super chats that you need to live.0.84
01:02:14.000Nathaniel says, looks like Steven Crowder's begging YouTube to keep his job again.
01:02:18.000Says that if his channel gets deleted, then his viewers will get radicalized somewhere else.
01:02:23.000Gatekeeper begging for mercy from the man.
01:03:04.000I can't totally begrudge him for doing and saying anything to keep the platform because it really sucks getting banned off of the platforms.
01:03:51.000Play good, if I play nice, then I'll be able to keep my platform.
01:03:56.000And inevitably, it's gone from Andrew Anglin to Steven Crowder.
01:04:00.000Nobody thought that was going to happen.
01:04:02.000Nobody thought that was possible in the mainstream.
01:04:04.000They thought that deplatforming happens to people that are bad, people that break the rules, people that are the real racists.
01:04:10.000So when they saw, you know, Anglin get banned years ago, when they saw Milo get banned, and 8chan, and Daily Stormer, and Jared Taylor, and when they saw those kinds of people, Chuck Johnson, and so on, when they saw those people getting banned, Did they have them on their show?
01:04:40.000It started with them, and now it's come all the way knocking on the door of Steven Crowder, who's one of the biggest conservative content creators in the business.
01:04:49.000He works for Blaze TV, which is right up there with any one of those.
01:04:54.000They're one of the biggest conservative digital media companies.
01:05:03.000Tucker Carlson doesn't even do a show on YouTube, and they're coming for a show on cable television.
01:05:08.000They're talking about getting his advertisers banned, which they largely have.
01:05:12.000They talked about trying to get Fox News removed from people's cable packages to deplatform Tucker Carlson.
01:05:19.000Primetime host on Fox News, by the way.
01:05:22.000So conservatives thought, oh, if I just leave this alone, I'll be okay.
01:05:27.000And in that sense, they were participating in censorship because they allowed big tech to gatekeep what you're allowed to say, how you're allowed to be a conservative.
01:05:45.000The more the conservatives get deplatformed, the more that they will be radicalized.
01:05:50.000And honestly, I could tell you, my experience after the Capitol has radicalized me more than anything I've ever read.
01:05:57.000And I know that that's true for a lot of people.
01:06:00.000What happened in the 2020 election, what happened after the Capitol and during the Capitol, that has radicalized more people than any show, any book, anything Donald Trump ever said.
01:06:11.000They are catalyzing radicalization with their actions because they're creating this country that is like a police state.
01:06:18.000And what's the response to a police state?
01:06:20.000What's the response to a totalitarian government?
01:06:23.000It's not to say, oh, well, things are basically okay.
01:06:27.000It's people that are saying things are getting bad enough where we have to start thinking about, you know, we have to really start to rethink the whole deal, the whole country.
01:06:39.000What has radicalized people more than the voter fraud, the impeachment?
01:06:43.000The two impeachments, the Russia hoax, the whole thing, they're the ones that are radicalizing people.
01:07:43.000March says, hey, Nick, every time I argue with an atheist, I always get asked, how do I know Christianity is the true religion out of many?
01:07:55.000Well, we know because Jesus Christ rose from the dead.
01:07:58.000And so, if Christianity wasn't, I mean, how could Christianity not be true if the resurrection did not happen in the real world?
01:08:06.000You know, it did not actually happen as an historical event.0.83
01:08:10.000If somebody comes around and says, Hi, I'm the Son of God, and performs miracles and then dies and is raised from the dead, and he's like, Hey, I'll be raised from the dead, and you're like, Get out of here.
01:09:36.000But there's also a theological argument, which is very sophisticated and very technical, which is really not my wheelhouse.
01:09:44.000Polish American Groyper says I went into my local deli, and immediately this new gal began to give me lip, telling me I need to put my mask on.0.99
01:09:53.000I told her, You're acting like a real Triglypuff.1.00
01:14:26.000It's like, well, they don't look Spanish, you know?
01:14:28.000So, no, I mean, my ancestors are from Mexico.
01:14:33.000Some of them are from Spain at one point, but some of them are from.
01:14:37.000Some of them are native, some of them are indigenous.
01:14:40.000So I don't know exactly what the breakdown is.
01:14:43.000I think my 23andMe said something like 14% indigenous.
01:14:48.000But in any case, it belies the fact that it's like if I were to go up to somebody and say, I'm Mexican, if I were to go up to literally anybody, white or Mexican, if I came up to somebody who was liberal or conservative and I said, Hi, nice to meet you.
01:15:27.000I mean, that's what's so ridiculous to me if I went out there and said, I'm 1% African and 14% Native, I'm non white, so I can't be racist.
01:15:37.000People would say, oh, get the fuck out of here.
01:16:55.000They say, wait a second, you're partially Mexican, but you're pushing for, like, you hate all non white people?
01:17:03.000Well, you know, you must just be confused, right?
01:17:07.000They see that inherent contradiction in their perception of my worldview and who I am, and they say, oh, well, you either don't know what you're pushing or there's a giant illogical contradiction in the center of what you're pushing.
01:17:23.000You know, rather than think, oh, my assumption is wrong, rather than think, oh, if these two things are in contradiction, Maybe I'm wrong.
01:17:33.000I couldn't possibly be wrong about what you're pushing.
01:17:37.000My perception of what your beliefs are couldn't possibly be wrong.
01:17:41.000I know what your beliefs are, I know what your beliefs are better than you do.
01:17:45.000And I can follow them through to their logical conclusions better than you do.
01:17:49.000If there's an obvious contradiction between who you are and what you believe, it's not me that is wrong about what you believe, it's you that is basically your whole life is a lie.
01:19:17.000Carolina Groypers to Scott Adams said today that your persuasion skills are very high and that anyone who thinks you're a bad force in the world should be afraid.
01:21:06.000Black lasers, it has been rumored lately that many of the mainstream political people's following is fake, artificially pushed to the front with algorithm changes and bots.
01:21:17.000The last Twitch purge that removed 2 million followers from XQC might support this theory.
01:21:23.000Yeah, I mean, I think anybody that has a big following, there's probably a lot of fluff.
01:21:29.000You know, people that have a big following have a big following, but it's probably not as big as the purported numbers.
01:21:36.000I think that goes with the territory with almost anybody that has a million plus followers on any platform.
01:22:36.000Consider the following Last of the steam powered trains by the kinks, Street Fighting Man or Under My Thumb by the Rolling Stones, and of course, LA Woman by the doors.1.00
01:22:46.000I will be end blasting these alone this summer.
01:22:49.000Will I be end blasting these alone this summer?
01:26:56.000Their critique of the left is like, hey, that's not very liberal of you, or we're more liberal than you.
01:27:02.000That's literally, if you go on Breitbart, if you go on Daily Caller, if you go on Fox, everything that they say is either like, oh, you're a liberal, and yet you support something that doesn't really live up to those principles.
01:28:01.000Vetoes is due to the societal differences between America and China over the state's legitimacy.
01:28:06.000America is built on the social contract, and China is built on the mandate of heaven.0.53
