00:00:18.000We are finally back from Washington, D.C., from the Great CPAC, of course, which is the conservative political action conference put on by the American Conservative Union.
00:00:29.000I was there since Wednesday in D.C., and I was there with.
00:00:35.000Some friends, some friends from online, some friends from in real life, some other media people.
00:00:44.000We're going to get right into it on CPAC and just everything about it, everything that went on, the speakers, the program, the setup, what they said, why they say what they say, who I met, some of the encounters, some of the stories.
00:00:58.000So it's going to be a very cozy episode.
00:01:00.000We're going to ease you back into the show.
00:01:03.000I know Monday through Friday, the hard hitting analysis on foreign affairs, economics, law.
00:01:09.000We got to easy back into it with some stories from CPAC, some lighter stuff, and then hopefully we can get into some more developments about the shooting and then possibly DACA.
00:01:23.000And of course, right when I leave, right when I leave and we put the show on hiatus for three days, I'd been talking about the same stuff for probably a week, talking about the shooting and the minutiae from that.
00:01:36.000And right when I leave, then all this other stuff starts happening with North Korea, with You know, other things.
00:01:45.000I got to say, every time I go to Washington, D.C., you know, look, I love Washington, D.C. because I love politics.
00:01:52.000And there's no better place if you like politics in Washington, D.C. If you like history, if you like American history, if you like politics, there's no better place.
00:02:01.000You get to see the monuments, you get to see the Capitol, you get to rub shoulders with all the people.
00:02:07.000Not only did I get to meet a number of people at CPAC, but I also got to meet a number of people sort of.
00:02:13.000On the periphery of that and see political people.
00:02:16.000But I have to say, you know, it really sickens me every time I go to Washington, D.C. As much as you love to see the museums and the monuments and the history and all of that, as much as we like that, what I have found in meeting people from D.C. and friends of mine from D.C. that I think are fine people and other people from D.C. who maybe are not so friendly or whatever, you start to understand who's in control of the country when you go to Washington, D.C., you start to understand how the system works.
00:02:46.000Which is that our country is governed by this ruling class, which is different from us.
00:02:51.000It started out, maybe, maybe it started out that the country was governed by patriots and they were equal to us and they were subject to the same laws as us, not just criminal law, but the Constitution.
00:03:04.000Maybe that's how it started out in 1788 when the Constitution was ratified.
00:03:08.000Maybe that's how it went for 100 years or so.
00:03:11.000But as it stands right now, as I go to Washington, D.C., and I've been there a number of times now, You see that this system is run by a ruling elite which is separate from us.
00:03:23.000They don't see themselves as American.
00:03:24.000They don't identify as American in the same way they see themselves as global, cosmopolitan.
00:03:30.000And we say globalist a lot, but really it's a cosmopolitan character, it's an internationalist character.
00:03:40.000They don't work the same way that we do, in the way that many people do in the private sector.
00:03:45.000Whereas in the private sector, if you're a good plumber, You do very well.
00:03:48.000If you're a good businessman, you do very well.
00:03:51.000If you're a good X, Y, and Z, you do very well.
00:03:53.000In politics, and you know, this, I don't think this needs to be said, but it's more about who you know.
00:03:58.000It's more about these parties that you go to and you rub shoulders and you shake hands and all this.
00:04:03.000But we've really gotten away from how the country was supposed to work, that it was supposed to be us that was governing the country.
00:04:08.000And this is why Trump was so different, because he genuinely was an outsider.
00:04:12.000He genuinely was a patriot and someone who, for the first time, is subject to the same rules as everybody else.
00:04:18.000The media, the deep state is forcing him to be accountable in the same way.
00:04:22.000But the way it's worked for maybe 100 years, maybe longer, is this system of patronage, this system where people are rotated in and out, you know, fathers and sons and nephews and uncles and friends and all kinds of other people.
00:04:36.000And it's very dirty and it's very slimy and disgusting.
00:04:39.000And don't get me wrong, there's fine people that are getting in there and they're infiltrating and they have our interests in mind and they're trying to change it.
00:04:46.000And you know, I don't even think there's so much of a problem that we have a ruling class.
00:04:50.000This is how just about every country has functioned forever.
00:04:54.000And this country did have a ruling class for a long time.
00:04:57.000We had an Anglo Saxon ruling class, Anglo Saxon Protestant ruling class.
00:05:01.000And although we got different classes of immigrants and different kinds of people coming in, different socioeconomic classes, There was this kind of aristocracy in America.
00:05:38.000In the National Harbor, first we got to talk about where it takes place.
00:05:42.000So, CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference, it's run by the American Conservative Union, which is really not so conservative, I have to say.
00:05:51.000But so, CPAC, they hold it at the Gaylord Hotel in the National Harbor in Maryland, which I've never been to the National Harbor before.
00:05:58.000This is my first time at CPAC, my first time in the National Harbor.
00:06:21.000But, you know, just a beautiful location.
00:06:23.000But I have to say, driving through this National Harbor, this is like, first of all, it's like this artificial construction.
00:06:31.000I don't know if anybody's ever been to this place, but this is not like an organic place.
00:06:35.000This is not something, you know, like the rest of D.C., it was designed in like the 18th century that, you know, this monument was going to be here and this there and it was going to be like this.
00:07:31.000They have people from the think tanks.
00:07:32.000And they do all these different speeches.
00:07:34.000And on the outside, on the periphery, they have this exhibition hall where they do all these different think tanks and political organizations.
00:07:42.000They have booths and they try and attract the young people.
00:07:45.000They try and attract converts, get them on the mailing list so they can sell it to God knows who.
00:07:50.000And, you know, give them the pamphlet and the novelty toy and all that.
00:07:54.000They have the alternative media and they're out there with their cameras doing their interviews live from CPAC.
00:07:59.000And so, this is kind of the atmosphere of the conference.
00:08:03.000I put down a list of everything I want to say about it because there really is so much about CPAC that is worth commenting on.
00:08:10.000To start with the program, to really get into what happened in CPAC proper, like what was put on by Matt Schlapp and the American Conservative Union, this conference was not conservative.
00:08:22.000You really felt that Donald Trump, Nigel Farage, Marion Le Pen, these nationalist figures that are talking about culture, That are talking about religion, that are talking about demographics.
00:08:34.000These people were the exceptions and not the rule.
00:08:36.000By far and away, if you were sitting in the big ballroom where they were holding all the speeches, if you were in those panels and what those panels were talking about, where they had these different people go head to head and debate the issues, this was by no stretch, really, a conservative conference.
00:08:52.000This is milquetoast, very vanilla stuff.
00:08:56.000It's remarkable how the Republican Party and the conservative right wing movement in America has been totally co opted.
00:09:03.000Totally infiltrated by libertarians, by libertines and libertarians.
00:09:08.000These are the fiscal conservative, socially liberal.
00:09:11.000And what this new class of people essentially cares about their priorities are we want low taxes, low regulations, we want free markets, free trade, and nothing else.
00:09:23.000And you can see this because throughout the conference you have a demonstration by like transgender GOP, log cabin Republicans, which is the homosexual wing, Muslims for the GOP, Muslim conservatives, Sheriff David Clark, who you know.
00:09:38.000I know he's based and he's on Fox News and he's really tough, but he's a registered Democrat, folks.
00:09:53.000How can we preserve the kinds of conditions that prevailed in the country, the texture of life in this country that allowed these freedoms to happen, that allowed ourselves to prosper economically and in other ways?
00:10:04.000They instead want to preserve, of course, the free market.
00:10:07.000That's what every speech, every panel, Every discussion, if you were sitting in that room, with few exceptions, it was socialism sucks.
00:10:58.000However, when that becomes the priority, when that becomes the sole driving force, is how do we get the gross domestic product to be the highest it can be?
00:11:08.000How do we get these numbers up where the stock market is doing well and we're inflating the portfolios of hedge funds and the big banks and the international financiers?
00:11:48.000You know, cheap consumer goods and how do we have jobs and all this other stuff.
00:11:52.000And that's really, I think we're really missing the plot if that's the priority.
00:11:56.000If you look around the world today, you look at the invasion of the country from the South, if you look at the invasion of Europe, if you look at the pillaging of our economy by China and by other foreign interests, and you think that the chief concern of this nation, when we're going to be, what, 40% white in 2050?
00:12:13.000We're going to be probably 0% Christian the way it's been going for 100 years.
00:12:18.000And your concern is, oh, well, Walmart and McDonald's need to lower their minimum wage from $10 to $9.50 so that we could get.
00:12:43.000There is nothing right wing about this, all right?
00:12:46.000There are exceptions that are right wing, but the rule is not.
00:12:49.000And I'm sure if Donald Trump goes in 2020, if he goes sooner, if he goes in 2024 without serious reform, without serious infiltration, If we don't go into the Republican Party and represent these actual nationalist right wing concerns, it'll return whence it came.
00:13:07.000It'll return to the National Review, the AEI, American Enterprise Institute kind of stuff.
00:13:16.000I don't care if this country goes to hell in a handbasket so long as the GDP is looking good and the stock market is going this way and my 401k is doing well.
00:13:56.000You do need a counterweight to the left.
00:13:58.000And to an extent, it should be in the center, it should be somewhat mainstream because they have to appeal to a lot of people.
00:14:04.000However, you listen to some of these speeches from Dana Lash, from Wayne LaPierre of the NRA, from some of these others, and they talk about what are the threats to the United States.
00:14:12.000And they talk about things like Fabian socialism, European style socialism, Saul Olinsky.
00:14:20.000They talk about all this other stuff, and it's everything but the real actors that are the problem in the country.
00:14:26.000You know, I doubt if you're looking at the Rust Belt, if you're looking at the Midwest, if you're looking at this vast swath of territory between L.A. and New York City, I don't think they care so much about Karl Marx and like this.
00:14:39.000Fabian socialist agenda and all this and that.
00:14:42.000I think they're more concerned about the fact that there's no jobs anymore.
00:14:48.000That our population is being systematically replaced by immigrants and some better than others, but there is this replacement going on.
00:14:57.000I don't think if you look at the average blue collar family where they're struggling to pay their bills, their property taxes are high, their jobs are being offshored to foreign countries, to East Asian countries.
00:15:09.000Their kids are coming up through the elementary school system and forget about Marxism and socialism, but they're learning about what?
00:15:16.000They're learning that our history is one of slavery and genocide and Holocaust and this and that.
00:15:21.000And then they graduate and they go to college and they're saddled with a hundred grand in student loan debt.
00:15:26.000And then they get out and they can't get a job and just on and on.
00:15:29.000And on top of that, then the surrounding area in the cities is violent and there's crime and there's this diversity quota stuff where now there's this real lack of cohesion in the communities and people are killing themselves.
00:15:40.000He got the heroin addiction and opioid addiction and everything.
00:15:44.000I don't think they're worried so much about the fact that Karl Marx is the number one assigned economist in college campuses and European style socialism.
00:15:58.000And then there were a couple of other trivial things, just some observations I made just in more concrete examples.
00:16:05.000I went to one of the panels, and the discussion was about immigration.
00:16:09.000Oh boy, this ought to be a real hoot and holler because they had people from presidential cabinets, they had a guy from the Cato Institute, which is a libertarian think tank.
00:16:50.000That we should let the free market decide immigration.
00:16:53.000He said that we should end Soviet style controls over our immigration system.
00:16:59.000So, folks, having borders, having reasonable restrictions on immigration, like not having millions of people from all over the world come over every year, Soviet style regulations, it's opposed to the free market.
00:17:12.000And he's up there and he's peddling this kind of stuff and he's getting booed by the crowd the whole time.
00:17:16.000People are like yelling out in the middle of it.
00:17:19.000I thought they were going to get their pitchforks and their torches and storm the stage.
00:17:23.000By the QA, people were just getting up and saying, like, listen, my kid died by the hand of an illegal immigrant.
00:17:29.000You don't know what you're talking about.
00:17:31.000I mean, they dropped all pretenses that this was like a discourse or a dialogue or a debate, or like they were even asking questions by the QA.
00:17:40.000Like, you're not a, you know, you're this young guy and you want our country to be invaded.
00:17:44.000Excuse the language, but this was the sentiment.
00:17:46.000And then we saw in another one of the panels, the Us 2 panel, which I'm sure you've heard of, you had this young Jewish girl, young Jewish girl, you know, this is.
00:18:54.000We are a low tax, low regulation economic zone.
00:18:59.000Where all the different entities, all the different government actors, non government actors, international actors, and peoples of the world get to come here and use and abuse it to their own financial benefit.
00:19:10.000And that's the kind of country they want.
00:19:11.000And you saw the split right down the middle where you had these panels, you had these speakers, and the people who showed up were not having it.
00:19:34.000That was kind of like what was going on with the speakers.
00:19:36.000That was what was going on, I guess, with the establishment.
00:19:40.000And you have to ask yourself, you know, why is that the case?
00:19:43.000Why do you get this program instead of a different one?
00:19:46.000Why do they invite these kinds of people instead of different people?
00:19:49.000That's really something people have to ask.
00:19:51.000Instead of taking what's put in front of you and saying, like, oh, okay, this is conservatism.
00:19:56.000Now ask yourself, why do they pick, for example, Cato Institute and American Enterprise Institute and Heritage Foundation and The Daily Signal and X, Y, and Z instead of some of these other outlets?
00:20:08.000Why does Breitbart not have a more significant presence?
00:20:13.000And I don't really think it's that far, right, compared to where the Republican Party has gone.
00:20:17.000But how come you don't get these more outsider, more populist, more nationalist voices?
00:20:22.000And then you look at who sponsors this kind of a conference.
00:20:26.000You understand that this is a great expense to host a conference like this.
00:20:29.000It doesn't just happen every year, like, you know, it just pops out of the ground.
00:20:34.000And, well, here's CPAC, and here's the flyers, and here's the marketing, and here's the lineup, and everything, and then here's the hotel where it takes place.
00:20:41.000It costs a lot of money to put on a conference like this.
00:20:52.000It doesn't come out of the Republican Party.
00:20:54.000They have donors, they have sponsors, of which Google is one of them, which is very curious.
00:20:59.000But you start to look at who sponsors an event like this, it becomes very clear why you hear from the people you do and why you hear from the people you do on Fox News and in the papers and in these conferences and in the party.
00:21:11.000We look at who are some of the bigger sponsors of CPAC, and you get the Heritage Foundation.
00:21:18.000The Heartland Institute, the American Enterprise Institute, among others.
00:21:21.000And these three I picked particularly because these three organizations are funded almost completely or major, major donors of these three institutions, Heritage, Heartland, and American Enterprise, is the Koch brothers.
00:21:35.000And we know the Koch brothers because Harry Reid was always complaining about them that, you know, the Koch brothers are behind everything.
00:21:42.000Anytime, like, a black person, like, their shoes come untied, it's the Koch brothers.
00:21:46.000Every time, you know, a Jewish person, You know, they think like someone's like following them home from work.
00:23:06.000And we expect a certain outcome in government policy because the think tanks drive the policy.
00:23:11.000And so if they throw in $50 million at Heritage and Heritage helps put on this conference, and the conference doesn't talk so much about mass immigration, and maybe they advocate for deregulation and lower taxes, and the immigration can just kind of continue forever, and we'll just take a $1.5 million.
00:23:28.000Peasants a year from all these different countries where they don't speak English and they don't practice Christianity, well, then that's a good return on investment.
00:23:36.000And so you understand why you get the kinds of people that you do in the Republican establishment.
00:23:41.000It's not like they all get together and like a big, you know, there's this weird conspiratorial like projection that people have.
00:23:49.000When you start criticizing the establishment or the system, there's this weird thing where people say, oh, you must think it's a conspiracy.
00:23:57.000You must think that they all get together, they have a big meeting, and they decide, like, how are we going to screw over the American people?
00:24:08.000It just so happens that the people that pay for this conference.
00:24:12.000Are paid for by somebody else and paid for by somebody else who happens to want mass immigration continue.
00:24:18.000And as such, the people who make their living off of these paychecks from these people who want mass immigration, they don't cross those people.
00:24:25.000And so they don't talk about mass immigration.
00:24:28.000And so Matt Schlapp and some of these other people, maybe they're good people, maybe they disagree with immigration.
00:24:33.000They're not going to go against the people that put up the money because they like to make money and they like their own pet issues.
00:24:42.000Kind of something people have to realize is if we ever want to get control, if we ever want to take the reins of politics in the country, we have to do so monetarily.
00:24:52.000And this is where, ironically, we bash the GDP kind of stuff all day long, but Americans need real economic independence to have political independence.
00:25:02.000In the sense that if Americans had wealth, if it wasn't this system where Americans accumulated all this debt, and you take the average American and they don't have a lot of savings, they don't have.
00:25:13.000You know, wealth in the real sense of the word that maybe it did 50 or 60 years ago.
00:25:17.000You know, people are living paycheck to paycheck.
00:25:19.000Their incomes meet their expenses and so on.
00:25:22.000In order to have real political power and real enfranchisement and real sovereignty, the people have to have a financial base.
00:25:28.000They have to have real wealth that they can give and support different causes.
00:25:32.000When all the money is controlled by a very select group of people and they direct all of it, it's no wonder that our voices get drowned out.
00:26:06.000I go to CPAC and I'm just disappointed because there is such an opportunity in this country to make real change and really get us on the right direction, but none of these solutions, none of these issues, Are going to make it or break it for us.
00:26:19.000We have to push a little bit farther here.
00:26:26.000You see all the people who spend their hard earned money to get here and they're walking all day long around this conference with their hearts on their sleeves and they want to be these political people and they're not being served.
00:26:39.000It's just a waste of these kinds of resources.
00:26:41.000And if that's going to go to the ends of what?
00:30:29.000Like, pick, you have a buffet of things that you could say to me that would be a respectable retort, like a respectable hostile confrontation thing to say.
00:30:40.000He could say, like, oh, you're a lot shorter in person, like Kirk Schlichter said.
00:30:44.000Or he could say, oh, you know, you're like a baby.
00:30:58.000I said, you know, that's a really adorable act you just did there where you just pretended like you don't even know me because I saw you commenting in my periscope just yesterday.
00:31:26.000You see a lot of Chinese spies in Australia and in the United States, people who are loyal to a different country.
00:31:32.000You see these immigrants from Mexico and South America.
00:31:36.000They come here and they wave the Mexican flag, and I think they'd be better off in Mexico.
00:31:41.000And Will Chamberlain, you know, he comes at me with this vitriol like he wants to hurt me, he wants to destroy me, and he wants, I think he made a phone call to try to get me kicked out of CPAC next year.
00:31:52.000And he doesn't like me because I'm America first and because I'm white.
00:31:56.000And here's a guy who's half Jewish and he's upset because I believe that a foreign lobby like AIPAC or foreign influences from Israel should be treated like everything else.
00:32:04.000So, I'm not so sure I want to shake his hand anymore because I think he's treacherous, but he was very nasty in person.
00:32:10.000He tried to debate me live and do live blood sports, like in the lobby of CPAC, right outside the ballroom, which I was fine.
00:32:18.000I was happy to meet him there and humiliate him badly in front of his friends and in front of the Bitcoin millionaire and all the rest.
00:33:15.000And the last thing I want to say about CPAC, I saw all my fans there, saw so many fans and friends of the show.
00:33:22.000And there was a wide variation of like young college kids who, you know, they feel disenchanted, disillusioned, disassociated with the country.
00:33:31.000So I met a lot of people from the Discord, met a lot of people who just watched the show.
00:33:36.000And there were also a lot of people who were like professionals, people who came up to me who worked for.
00:33:40.000Some of these like prestigious publications, people who work in government, people who work in certain departments, people have to keep it on the down low.
00:33:49.000But, you know, if there were not a lot of people around and there weren't a lot of cameras around, would come up to me and say, Hey, like, I can't really be seen with you, but I love what you're doing and I really believe in it and keep going.
00:34:05.000And this is from people you would think, you would think that my fan base would be like these autists.
00:34:09.000And, you know, there were some autists and we love those people too.
00:34:12.000These people are just as much a part of the country as everybody else.
00:34:14.000However, You know, not only do you have this grassroots kind of element, but you also have people that are inside who feel the same way.
00:34:22.000You have people that you would never guess it if you saw them.
00:34:25.000You would never guess it if you knew their names, if you saw where they worked, that they watched the show or that they were on board with our kind of message and they believed in what I'm doing.
00:34:34.000You know, I have all kinds of people, all these experts who come to me, people like Will Chamberlain or Cabot Phillips, who tell me, you're wasting your potential, you're wasting your talent, you work hard, you're smart, and yet you're addicted to the attention, you're addicted to that.
00:34:47.000Or even people that care about me who say, you know, Nick, You're going down this weird path.
00:34:51.000You should just go back to school and you should do this and that.
00:34:55.000And some people also tell me I should go to school who know what's going on.
00:34:58.000But then you hear these professionals and these people in media and these people in government, and they really believe in what's going on here.
00:35:04.000They understand the threat better than anybody else, and they back Nick.
00:35:17.000That's why we do this kind of silly show.
00:35:20.000That's why we do this thing which many people don't understand right now.
00:35:23.000You know, I go to CPAC and people ask me, all these very educated people, educated people, these professionals, and they've been in this system forever, this legacy system, and they've got a four year degree.
00:35:35.000These college Republicans will throw their degrees at me and they're, I'm making six figures interning here, I'm making six figures working in this for this senator or whatever.
00:35:47.000But the thing is, they are not, there's no courage there.
00:35:58.000And all these people, they don't understand it, but this is the future.
00:36:01.000People are tired of what's happening in the country.
00:36:04.000And all these people, they're having a great time right now while the money is flowing and it's not stopping and the limelight is there and they get to wear their fancy badges and, you know, I'm wearing my blue ribbon and I have my diploma and all this and that.
00:36:17.000But they do not understand what's coming.
00:36:19.000The rug will be pulled right out from under them in very short order.
00:36:29.000And you don't see it if you watch television because the status quo will protect the status quo and they'll say it's going to continue forever, but things are really changing.
00:36:37.000So I guess that is the white pill that I saw going to CPAC.
00:36:39.000Although it was disappointing that institutionally we're not making the changes, or rather the establishment is not making the changes, I think the changes are going to happen one way or the other, whether they're on board or not.
00:36:51.000They have no idea what's coming, but people are not going to take it for very long.
00:37:17.000And this is very curious, of course, because his father, Tim Phillips, is the head of this very influential lobby called Americans for Prosperity.
00:37:26.000He was very close friends with the founder of the Leadership Institute.
00:37:29.000He met his wife at the Leadership Institute.
00:37:31.000He gave speeches at the Leadership Institute.
00:37:34.000And the Leadership Institute owns Campus Reform, the job that his son is now the head of.
00:37:37.000So that's very curious how that works out.
00:37:39.000But so I see him in the National Harbor, Cabot Phillips, and he's tall, handsome kind of guy, soy faced kind of a guy, but, you know, good looking fella, well spoken, smart enough.
00:37:53.000And I see him, and he tells me, Nick, first of all, he refuses to shake my hand.
00:37:56.000He says, I don't respect you because you're smart, you work very hard, this and that.
00:38:01.000You know, obviously you have a lot of talent, but you're dividing the country with this racial stuff and you're throwing it all away and all this.
00:38:10.000And this is kind of, I think, symptomatic of the system where, you know, he's going to go on there, he's going to go on television, and the same is true of Cassie Dillon and of Ben Shapiro.
00:38:19.000I mean, this is a microcosm of what's happening with the conservative establishment in general, where they're going to go out there, they're going to push their viral videos and their listicles and their, you know, this regurgitating Ben Shapiro, William F. Buckley talking points kind of stuff, and they do it for the money or they do it for the fame or they do it for the clout or the status or because they get to feel important.
00:39:12.000And it's not respectable at this point, but we're doing it because.
00:39:16.000We really believe in what we're doing.
00:39:18.000Many people would call you stupid to do this kind of a thing.
00:39:21.000You know, it is to them a waste of talent because they don't value the same things we value.
00:39:26.000I could easily be in the same place as many of these folks, maybe not as high up yet because of my age, but I could easily be in the conservative establishment working my way up the ladder and kissing, you know, this and that and sucking this and that and all of that.
00:39:41.000And I could be in a very important place.
00:39:43.000I could be doing well, but I wouldn't be independent.
00:39:46.000We wouldn't be doing it for the right reasons.
00:39:48.000We'd be doing it for all the aforementioned reasons.
00:40:00.000I'm okay that I'm going to come here and be the black sheep.
00:40:03.000I'm going to come here and people are going to give me dirty looks and people are going to yell at me and they're going to threaten to beat me up and they're going to wipe their snot on me and all this because we are doing the right thing.
00:40:25.000Maybe we'll do all of that tomorrow because there's been some real curious stuff happening in the aftermath of the shooting.
00:40:32.000Just different witness accounts, new things coming to light that didn't add up.
00:40:36.000You had that weird town hall on CNN over the weekend, and just a lot of stuff.
00:40:40.000I think we'll save it for tomorrow because I really want to do a deep dive on the Parkland School shooting because something's not right here.
00:40:48.000And I will just very quickly because I said I would on Twitter earlier today.
00:40:52.000We're going to get into the details of the shooting tomorrow.
00:40:55.000Just the things that contradict each other, where either law enforcement was criminally negligent and people need to be arrested and put in jail, or people were complicit, in which case we're in uncharted waters.
00:41:06.000But I will say about the gun control argument, sort of an epiphany I had earlier today, and I tweeted about it, and not many people understood my point in tweeting it.
00:41:15.000But what I started to understand about gun control and about what the left is pushing is that their entire solution for school shootings, for gun violence, is that they want to prevent.
00:41:28.000Firearms from falling into the hands of people who have nefarious intentions.
00:41:31.000That's the whole of their solution for the problem.
00:41:34.000You have a problem where people are getting guns.
00:41:37.000You know, first of all, they're going off the deep end.
00:41:39.000For whatever reason, they're going off the deep end.
00:41:43.000They go to the schools and then they use them on people and they kill a bunch of people.
00:41:47.000And then either they kill themselves or they get arrested or they get killed in the shootout.
00:41:51.000And I'm thinking that the left's solution to this problem has nothing to do with what happens when the shooter's in the building, has nothing to do with.
00:41:59.000A shooter's decline and, you know, this devolution into the state of mind where they're going to do something.
00:42:05.000Their proposal is singularly focused on we need to prevent bad people from getting guns.
00:42:10.000But after that, they have no solution.
00:42:12.000What happens when a bad person gets a gun?
00:42:33.000Hope he doesn't break into your classroom.
00:42:37.000And what that tells you about the Democrats, what that tells you about that argument is that short of complete and total gun confiscation, short of a system or a regime of regulations which would prevent guns from falling into the wrong hands 100% of the way, they have no solution.
00:42:55.000And the only way to do that, the only way to prevent these kinds of shootings 100% is to ban all the guns.
00:43:00.000Because if their solution is, if their only solution is, we need to prevent bad people from getting guns.
00:43:06.000And after that, they have no solution.
00:43:08.000Well, inevitably, bad people are going to get guns.
00:43:10.000You have 300 million guns in the country, 300 million people in the country.
00:43:14.000So, statistically, it is an inevitability that a bad person will get a gun.
00:43:18.000You saw this in Parkland where the guy was mentally ill.
00:43:29.000But with this many guns, with this many people, it is a statistical inevitability that in some point in time, a bad person will get a gun, either through the black market or through a gun show, or they won't have a criminal.
00:43:41.000They'll pass all the background checks and just snap one day and they'll have a gun or, you know, whatever.
00:43:45.000But with that many, 300 million instantiations of people and guns, You're going to get at least one on any given month or day or year that a bad person will acquire one.
00:43:55.000And after that, they have no solution.
00:43:57.000And so, when I say that they have to come up with a regime that prevents firearms from falling into the wrong hands 100% of the time, and people say, oh, well, you're calling for a perfect solution, I'm not saying that.
00:44:09.000I'm saying that if the Democrats' only proposal is this facet, this stage of the issue, is gun to the crazy person, and after that or before that, they have no solution, well, that means that they're okay with it essentially.
00:44:22.000That means that if somebody falls through the cracks and they get a firearm and they're in the school, well, you know, good luck, kids.
00:44:28.000He shouldn't have had a gun and there needs to be more regulations.
00:44:31.000You know, okay, he shouldn't have had it, but he does.
00:44:35.000And that is why necessarily the gun control argument must lead to total gun confiscation.
00:44:41.000Because the only way, the only way that you approach 95% or 99% or 100% stoppage on firearms falling into the wrong hands is if nobody has firearms.
00:44:53.000You will never, you will never in a million years prevent all firearms, control all firearms and who's holding them and what state of mind.
00:45:01.000And if they have a smart lock on the gun and a smart trigger and it's in a safe and it's locked, you will never, no matter how many regulations, approach 95, 99, or 100% stoppage of a gun getting to the hands of somebody who has bad intentions.
00:45:14.000And if you understand that that's not going to happen with regulations and they have no other solutions outside of that, the only other option, the last possibility is well, then nobody should have a gun.
00:45:25.000And so, even if people say, well, we're not for total confiscation, we're not for this and that, if they're only talking about gun control, regardless of what they say, the logical conclusion is necessarily to ban all firearms.
00:45:37.000And maybe I hope people can understand the logical demonstration of that.
00:45:42.000If they're out there saying we need to reduce the amount of gun crimes by doing gun background checks, among other things, and also arming teachers, and also mental health, and also increased community, then I say, okay.
00:45:55.000You know, maybe gun control can be a part of it.
00:45:57.000Maybe a background check can be a part of it.
00:45:59.000But if that's all you're talking about, if this, you know, David Hogg kid, and wait, here's my best David Hogg impression.
00:46:06.000People tell me I look like him all the time.
00:46:27.000When he goes out there, I hope I didn't have any boogers in my nose, but when he goes out there and he says, we need to stop the NRA, we need gun control, and I don't care about anything else, effectively what he's calling for, if you follow the logical conclusion, if there's nothing else, and all you want is preventative, and if people slip through the cracks, well, the kids are just going to have to get shot, the logical conclusion is total confiscation.
00:46:50.000Unless you're preaching that teachers need to be armed, and there need to be armed personnel in the schools, And need to have bullets going in the other direction, that's the inevitable result.
00:47:01.000So, that's the one thing I did want to say about it.
00:47:03.000But we'll cover that more in depth tomorrow on everything that happened there.
00:47:53.000Thoughts on the state of young conservatives?
00:47:55.000Saw quite a few thoughts, plus the CR losers who attacked you.
00:48:00.000No, it's tough with the young conservatives because so many of them have been wrapped up.
00:48:04.000They've been sucked into this sick machine.
00:48:06.000They've been ground up into this big machine of free market, libertarian kind of stuff.
00:48:12.000How many young conservatives do you talk to who are like, they just.
00:48:16.000Have the machine up their butt with this kind of low taxes, low regulations, individual liberty.
00:48:22.000I mean, these people are brought up by Ben Shapiro and Milo Yiannopoulos, who are anti identity politics.
00:48:28.000And so long as you come here and you pay your taxes and you buy your cheap consumer goods and you vote in the next election, it doesn't matter if you're black, brown, red, yellow, it doesn't matter if you speak English, if you don't, it doesn't matter if you were rolling heads down the Aztec pyramids just a hundred years ago, just as long as you come here and you participate in the economy, you're okay.
00:48:50.000When you understand that all those kids are being sucked in by these kinds of people, the Paul Joseph Watsons, the rest, that refuse to acknowledge race, that refuse to affirm identity and what it means, we're in kind of a tough spot.
00:49:03.000That said, I think a lot of young people are discontent.
00:49:07.000They're ripe for the taking, especially Generation Z. Millennials, kind of not good.
00:49:14.000Generation Z, especially whites, have been told all their life that they are racist, that they are this and that.
00:49:21.000And what's peculiar about Generation Z that isn't the case with any other generation is that they were born at a time when there was no racism.
00:49:29.000Generation Z, if they were born in, I believe it's 1995 is the cutoff, but some people also say it's 2000, you imagine that Generation Z becomes politically conscious when they're 15.
00:49:43.000So for the lowest level, that would be 2010 in terms of the oldest Generation Z, and the youngest would be maybe 2025.
00:49:52.000That's when they become politically conscious.
00:49:54.000Between 2010 and 2025, I'm sorry, there's no racism against black people.
00:50:05.000And so, unlike any other generation in American history, Generation Z did not, in their lived experience, see, hear, or know of any significant institutional or systemic discrimination, prejudice against non whites.
00:50:20.000And yet, they are taught in school, they are taught by their media, they are bullied by women, by teachers, by the rest.
00:50:28.000By culture into submission, that they're told, well, you know, you're the oppressor, you're these genociders.
00:50:34.000They have it the worst, and that will create a very striking cognitive dissonance, a very powerful confusion, I think, in young people, which will bring them over to our side.
00:50:45.000That's the first generation in history.
00:50:47.000You wonder why boomers were so quick to sell off their country?
00:50:50.000It's because they saw and participated in real discrimination.
00:50:54.000Their white guilt is personal guilt in many cases because they saw racism, they were witness to it, they participated in it.
00:51:02.000When the blacks drove through the neighborhoods, the white neighborhoods in New York or Chicago or D.C., they were out there and they were, you know, there were real race riots and race conflict and racial tensions.
00:52:30.000Whereas 50 years ago, you wouldn't be subject to this siege of pornographic and sexualizing images and violence and cussing and anti Christian, anti Western propaganda.
00:52:43.000Before you had mothers to shield their kids from that and to shield them from drugs and alcohol and all the rest.
00:52:52.000You're going to have to be sought after by a Polish immigrant in daycare until you're five years old, and then you get thrown in the public school system.
00:52:58.000And Lord knows the prejudice is there.
00:53:34.000But he comes up to me and he's telling me, like, I'm going to, and for people that didn't see the Periscope, there's this guy who was from Boston.
00:53:41.000I never met him, never heard of this guy.
00:53:43.000I was like the most, in terms of the 2016 election in Boston, I was the most famous conservative in Boston.
00:53:49.000I was the only one moving and shaking there for the most part.
00:53:52.000But apparently, there was some guy, Ben Raja Diraj, Ben Dupadur, whatever.
00:57:12.000He wipes his nose on my shirt, and I had to grab him.
00:57:15.000And, you know, there had to be a little bit of an altercation.
00:57:18.000But, yeah, there was a little bit of violence.
00:57:21.000And thankfully, I got out of CPAC without having to use Nick the Knife, without having to really, you know, do anything, without getting beat up or without having to beat anybody else up, at least too much.
00:57:55.000We appreciate your support, your tireless support.
00:57:58.000We look forward to a future, maybe in 2036, 2040, when the anime right will be out there campaigning with us in full force because we love.
00:58:21.000And you know, it's funny because we came out of, I forget which speech we came out of, but we came out of the big ballroom and there was all this like foot traffic.
00:59:55.000Where they got the same amount of votes in a special election in December 2017 for the Senate in a red state, the Democrats did, as they did in a presidential election.
01:00:54.000Virginia has been trending blue for a long time, so that one wasn't really a surprise either.
01:00:58.000The special elections the Democrats don't want to talk about are Montana, where we had a representative win after he body slammed a reporter the night before the election, and in Georgia, where the Democrats spent tens of millions of dollars and they couldn't beat.
01:01:46.000If we bring back, if we revive a Christian right, If we revive a nationalist right that is explicitly traditional, I think that would gain a lot of traction.
01:01:58.000That says, you know, no, no, no, we're not content with this trans stuff.
01:02:01.000We're not content with this feminist light stuff, this diversity light stuff, this homosexual light stuff.
01:03:12.000Look, you know, not for nothing, but I'm looking at these speeches, even professionals, even like the main, like Laura Ingram, okay?
01:03:19.000And I don't think I'm a very arrogant kind of a guy, but I look at the panels, I look at even the big speakers, and I think I could do a much better job.
01:03:26.000I even watch Ben Shapiro's speech, and I think to myself, I am a better speaker than Neil.
01:04:16.000Jira Taylor's lawsuit against Twitter is pretty remarkable, pretty revolutionary, because Jira Taylor is one of the few exceptions where he never violated, him or American Renaissance never violated Twitter's rules and regulations.
01:04:31.000They said they banned Jira Taylor and Amren because.
01:04:35.000They were associated with violent groups, which is simply not true, which cannot be corroborated with evidence.
01:04:42.000And so he'll be taking up a lawsuit against Twitter using a Supreme Court case that was decided in California where they ruled that political actors have a right to free speech in a public forum.
01:04:53.000Even if it's on private land, you have a right to use public space that is a designated public forum, essentially.
01:05:00.000And he explains it better in his video about it.
01:09:01.000I'll be hitting the gym tomorrow, I believe.
01:09:04.000Marissa Blythe says, We millennials also grew up in a racism free world, but we were told that we were the first slash pioneering such generation, hence the smugness and doubling down.
01:09:15.000I think Generation Z is woke in a lot of ways.
01:09:19.000They're getting psyops like no other generation in history, in terms of you pull up what they're looking at on Instagram, Snapchat, television.
01:09:28.000They don't watch television so much, but just what they are barraged with every day.
01:11:09.000I think that's the better option because if the court affirms his jurisdiction on immigration, if the court affirms his executive what?
01:11:20.000His executive authority on immigration over the Congress, over the judiciary.
01:11:24.000I think that is a better outcome because if he goes against the judiciary, what happens?
01:11:29.000The Democrats, the media, the Congress moves to impeach, to restrict his power because he's overstepped the scope of his powers.
01:11:38.000He stepped outside the lines and they would have a legitimate beef with him and there would be a real problem.
01:11:43.000But if he takes it through the courts and he slow walks it or he goes through the process essentially, not slow walks, but he goes through the process slowly by appealing it to the appeals courts and then ultimately to the Supreme Court if he doesn't get it through the appeals.
01:11:55.000Then you get a Supreme Court ruling that the president, they affirm that the president has these vast powers on immigration that are entitled both by the Constitution and by the law.
01:12:06.000So I think it should go through the courts.
01:12:09.000Marcus Antonius, one more hog impersonation for the Discord, please.
01:13:40.000You know, I put on this production all by myself.
01:13:42.000There's a lot going on in my world, and people, I don't think they understand that so much.
01:13:48.000If you have several hours to carve out to be preparing your macronutrients and to be preparing your workout regimen, look, I'll try and work it out in my routine.
01:13:57.000I think that would be something that's beneficial.
01:13:59.000However, For people that have two or three hours to kill every day, I don't know where they find the time.
01:14:35.000You know, again, when you are fanatical about these kinds of things, when you pour your heart and soul into these things, you know, you just really don't have the time to do everything you want to do.
01:14:47.000I'd love to look into the arts and literature and things like that.
01:14:51.000But, I mean, this past two weeks, I've been working like 12, 13 hours a day.
01:14:55.000You don't have the time to, like, I'm going to delve into music.
01:15:00.000I'd like to do a lot of things, but you just don't have the time.
01:15:03.000I'm sure once I'm in a more stable position, once I'm in a more, you know, if I get a couple of people, like a production assistant at some point, and we're doing very well on maker support, so that could be in the cards in the near future, then I'll be able to take on these extra projects.
01:15:17.000But right now, it's just, it's very busy.
01:15:20.000But, uh, looks like those are all our super chats here.
01:15:42.000You know, bulking up is not something it's very difficult to do at this age because you got to be really committed and, you know, this has to be your whole thing and costs money as well.
01:15:52.000And, uh, Bulking up happens naturally over time.
01:15:56.000As I mature, as I age, this bulking up will happen naturally.
01:16:00.000I have a physique of a normal teenager my age in a normal time.
01:16:05.000If people are not having to combat estrogen in the water and birth control in the water, this is what a normal person looks like at this age back in the day, right?
01:16:14.000So it's something that I'm not too concerned about.
01:16:18.000Right now, I'm worried about making a good show, making money so I can buy real estate.
01:17:51.000Nick, her argument for the Second Amendment is that guns empower women and she is against third wave feminism because it isn't empowering to women.
01:18:26.000However, the way to empower women is to put them, is to allow them, is to allow them to.
01:18:37.000Do their part, to take responsibility for their biological, sociological function, which is to reproduce, which is to create the next generation, to birth them, to rear them, to look after them.
01:18:53.000And there can be other tasks, but that's the focus.
01:20:56.000We're really going to put together the things that we never could put together when I had to deal with other people who weren't really responsible and weren't really doing their job.
01:21:04.000I will have to do all of it, but that's okay.
01:21:07.000You want it done right, you have to do it yourself.
