Transcript

00:00:06.000 Good evening everybody you're watching America First.
00:00:09.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.
00:00:10.000 We have a great show for you tonight.
00:00:12.000 Very excited to be back with you here tonight on Friday.
00:00:16.000 And I'm just now noticing that there might be a little bit of a challenge here with my wardrobe.
00:00:25.000 I just noticed this.
00:00:26.000 I sit down
00:00:28.000 I turn on my camera, I get all ready to go.
00:00:31.000 My casual Friday attire, of course, it's a casual Friday.
00:00:35.000 I'm not wearing a necktie, I'm wearing a fun Hawaiian shirt.
00:00:39.000 But I just sit down and realize that there might be a bit of an issue here with this greenish blue Hawaiian shirt.
00:00:51.000 I think you can kind of see through it in some areas, right?
00:00:55.000 Like here?
00:00:59.000 Duh, hello green shirt department, green shirt moment.
00:01:02.000 At first I thought it was just like wrinkled.
00:01:04.000 I'm like, oh, what's going on?
00:01:06.000 But then I realized nope.
00:01:08.000 It's uh, it's the chroma key.
00:01:10.000 It's You can see damn it.
00:01:13.000 All right.
00:01:15.000 Well, I might have to go.
00:01:16.000 Yeah, I think I might go change my shirt.
00:01:19.000 So I might have to put the music back on for a second.
00:01:22.000 I didn't even... Of course!
00:01:24.000 I know it's a green screen, but the green on this shirt isn't even that dark.
00:01:29.000 It's like a light green compared to the green of the green screen, but nevertheless... I don't know.
00:01:36.000 I mean, does that make it unwatchable?
00:01:38.000 I mean, it is very noticeable.
00:01:41.000 It is very visible that I'm completely blending in with my surroundings here.
00:01:45.000 Whoops!
00:01:49.000 Everybody's saying stay.
00:01:50.000 It doesn't matter.
00:01:51.000 It's okay.
00:01:54.000 People are saying it's okay.
00:01:55.000 We want to hear more lobby music.
00:01:57.000 Don't change.
00:01:58.000 Keep going.
00:01:59.000 Keep the shirt.
00:02:01.000 It's cool.
00:02:04.000 Whatever.
00:02:05.000 I guess we'll just go with it.
00:02:07.000 It's all in your mind, right?
00:02:09.000 Pain is in the mind.
00:02:10.000 It's casual, they're saying.
00:02:12.000 Yeah, that's true.
00:02:13.000 It is very casual to blend in with the background.
00:02:16.000 All right.
00:02:17.000 Well,
00:02:18.000 My apologies.
00:02:19.000 I guess I won't wear this shirt on the show anymore.
00:02:22.000 I think this is the first time I've worn this shirt on the show.
00:02:24.000 I thought I wore it once before.
00:02:26.000 That's why I thought it would be okay.
00:02:28.000 I was putting it on and I'm like, well, it's a little green.
00:02:31.000 Yeah, it's okay.
00:02:33.000 I wear green shirts all the time.
00:02:35.000 You know, I have another shirt that's like a green blue.
00:02:37.000 It's like a
00:02:40.000 We're good to go.
00:02:52.000 Whatever.
00:02:53.000 Anyway, you're watching America First.
00:02:56.000 We have a great show for you tonight.
00:02:58.000 Lots to talk about, lots to get into.
00:03:01.000 Of course, as you can already tell, it's gonna be a low-key, casual, fun, stress-free stream.
00:03:08.000 No stress.
00:03:09.000 No stress tonight.
00:03:10.000 I'm gonna try.
00:03:11.000 I'm gonna try to be a little bit less stressed out.
00:03:14.000 You should be as well.
00:03:16.000 And of course tonight we're talking more about the coronavirus and all that.
00:03:22.000 Tonight we're going to be talking about a number of different subjects.
00:03:27.000 We'll be looking at this new antibody test that is being floated by Dr. Fauci and others as a possible immunity passport.
00:03:37.000 You might remember that term.
00:03:38.000 I think we talked about this last week.
00:03:40.000 And this is an idea that has been floated in Europe.
00:03:44.000 In Germany, Italy, some other countries in Europe, they're talking about getting some kind of certificate or something where the government will be able to identify who is immune from coronavirus and those people will be able to return to normal life before everybody else.
00:04:04.000 So, and they haven't established what that might look like, but this was talked about last week in Europe, an immunity passport system where people that have gotten the virus already and survived, those people would get this passport and they'd be able to return to restaurants and public areas and not obviously have to worry about contracting the virus.
00:04:25.000 And now in the United States, they're proposing that this antibody test might be a solution, that the antibody test
00:04:33.000 We're good to go!
00:04:52.000 What's happening in New York?
00:05:06.000 And the death toll continues to stack.
00:05:07.000 It's at more than 18,000 today.
00:05:10.000 We'll get into the numbers.
00:05:11.000 But what's happening in New York, what we're talking about tonight, is not just about the death count, but about what's happening in the hospitals.
00:05:19.000 And this is something that we've been talking about for weeks on the show, which is the anticipated shortage of healthcare resources.
00:05:27.000 And that is PPE, personal protective equipment, that is ventilators for people that are in ICUs, people with a severe coronavirus case, but also the hospital beds has been a big variable.
00:05:40.000 And a lot of our response to the coronavirus has been based on the expectation using some of these statistical models that there would be a shortage of hospital beds
00:05:50.000 Uh, in the event that there would be a major coronavirus outbreak in our big cities.
00:05:55.000 And it turns out that this is not materializing.
00:05:58.000 There is no hospital bed shortage in New York.
00:06:02.000 There is no hospital bed shortage anywhere in the United States.
00:06:05.000 In fact, across the United States a lot of hospitals are empty, and they're running out of money, and they're having to fire their staff.
00:06:13.000 Because in the build-up to this coronavirus
00:06:16.000 Outbreak in the United States.
00:06:23.000 of having tens of thousands or thousands of people in intensive care, but that hasn't happened yet.
00:06:30.000 And even in New York, which is the biggest outbreak in the United States, and this is peak week, this is supposed to be the most people hospitalized, the most people in ICUs, and most people dead.
00:06:42.000 Even in the biggest city, with the biggest outbreak, there is no shortage of hospital beds.
00:06:48.000 And so this begs a question about the efficacy of our strategy and about our models that we're using, our statistical models, to predict and forecast the spread of the virus and its consequences.
00:07:01.000 And is that accurate?
00:07:03.000 Are these models correct?
00:07:05.000 So we'll dive into that a little bit and we'll also be talking about, and I guess this will be our featured story,
00:07:10.000 We're good to go.
00:07:30.000 We don't really have like a main story, we're just talking about a few different developments here with the coronavirus, but I don't know, I have to tell ya, I might be trending towards the opposite side.
00:07:40.000 You know, if you've been watching this show, that I've basically been saying we should do everything we can to stop the spread of the virus, and opening the economy sooner rather than later would be a terrible idea, and in no way is this comparable to the flu.
00:07:55.000 I don't know.
00:07:56.000 I don't know.
00:07:57.000 The more that we trudge along here, the more a lot of what we're seeing about the coronavirus seems to be fishy.
00:08:05.000 Seems to be a little bit suspect.
00:08:07.000 And I'm not backing down all the way just yet.
00:08:11.000 I'm not, you know, gonna go on a full retreat here.
00:08:14.000 Yes, I am.
00:08:31.000 I mean, we don't have enough data about the virus, frankly, because China didn't give us any information.
00:08:36.000 And we hadn't seen a full outbreak cycle in Europe completed yet at the time of our lockdown.
00:08:45.000 In other words, we didn't see the full course of what the outbreak looks like from beginning all the way until the end in a country outside of China before we had to go on lockdown.
00:08:56.000 It was mid-March that the decision was made to lockdown.
00:08:59.000 And it's only now starting to ramp down in Europe.
00:09:02.000 It's only now starting to de-escalate.
00:09:05.000 They are just past the peak in Italy and in some of these other countries.
00:09:10.000 So, in fairness, the death rate is starting to go down because we're finding out that a lot of people are infected that are asymptomatic and never show any symptoms.
00:09:20.000 We also are getting more data about the virus in our own country and from other countries.
00:09:25.000 And of course, the social distancing has been a big variable in the death rate.
00:09:29.000 We're good to go!
00:09:47.000 We're good to go!
00:10:00.000 These are very, very strange and troubling times.
00:10:04.000 We have to be very careful here with a crisis like this because, you know, just like 9-11 or just like 2008, we talked a lot about this early on, a crisis is a big opportunity for change.
00:10:18.000 And it could have been a big opportunity for us to do the things that we wanted to do as nationalists.
00:10:24.000 Shut down immigration, build a border wall, things like that.
00:10:29.000 But it could also be a big opportunity for our enemies to do what they want, which might be, again, like I said, mass surveillance, monitoring of people, government takeover of certain things, which we should be cognizant of.
00:10:42.000 We should be very cognizant of the agenda of billionaires like
00:10:47.000 Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates.
00:10:48.000 We should be very cognizant of the agenda of multinational corporations and big tech, Silicon Valley, Wall Street, because there are certainly maybe other machinations happening behind the scenes, which I never denied by the way, that we have to be weary of, especially as we reach the peak and move past it.
00:11:07.000 As we, as the dust begins to settle and we figure out what the post-coronavirus society looks like,
00:11:14.000 We're gonna have to be very careful that it doesn't turn into something that is a nightmare, right?
00:11:19.000 So, we're going to take a look at everything going on with coronavirus, but I just want to open with that.
00:11:24.000 A little bit of skepticism, a little bit of suspicion on my part, especially when I see these numbers with the hospital beds.
00:11:32.000 The crisis that they've been telling us was going to hit, seems like it's never going to hit.
00:11:37.000 Seems like it's not gonna hit in peak week, and that it might never hit as bad as they said it would.
00:11:42.000 And so,
00:11:44.000 I don't know.
00:11:44.000 You look at Fauci.
00:11:45.000 You look at Birx.
00:11:46.000 These are Obama officials.
00:11:48.000 These are Democrats.
00:11:49.000 You look at Bill Gates, who is the second biggest funder of the World Health Organization.
00:11:54.000 You look at the director of the World Health Organization, who has got some very suspicious background, very suspicious origin story.
00:12:03.000 And it seems all very bizarre to me.
00:12:06.000 Seems like there might be something else at play.
00:12:09.000 But
00:12:10.000 We're gonna dive in.
00:12:11.000 We'll talk about all our coronavirus news and you'll be more informed and it should be good but before we do that of course it is Good Friday so happy Good Friday.
00:12:22.000 I always feel weird saying happy Good Friday because kind of a bad thing that happened today.
00:12:28.000 I mean of course it is a great triumph that happens over the course of the next three days but
00:12:35.000 You know, to say, hey, happy Good Friday.
00:12:37.000 You know, you think about what happened today and it's like, well, is that like, you know, that's not like an amazing, I mean, it is amazing, but it's like, was that a positive development that our guy got nailed to the cross?
00:12:49.000 Like, hey, happy day, you know, day that God got nailed to the cross.
00:12:53.000 It's like, eh, but it is Good Friday.
00:12:55.000 So I hope you're enjoying your Good Friday.
00:12:58.000 I hope you're abstaining from meat, making preparations for Easter.
00:13:02.000 It's going to be a weird weekend.
00:13:05.000 Right?
00:13:05.000 Normally you go to Easter Mass and that's, you know, the best and the biggest day of the year on the liturgical calendar.
00:13:13.000 And this weekend, we're not going to be going to Mass.
00:13:15.000 Mass is still cancelled, obviously, everywhere, and can't have family get-togethers or anything like that, so it's kind of a weird time for the church.
00:13:24.000 It's a weird time for the world, and a weird time, I guess, for the church in the world, right?
00:13:29.000 But happy, I guess, you know, premature, happy Easter, happy Good Friday.
00:13:33.000 Hope you're enjoying the holiday season.
00:13:34.000 Hope everybody's staying healthy and safe and financially stable and everything.
00:13:40.000 Another jobless report came out today.
00:13:42.000 Another 6 million people out of work.
00:13:45.000 16 million jobless claims in three weeks.
00:13:47.000 So I hope everybody's staying okay in that area.
00:13:50.000 But happy Good Friday!
00:13:51.000 I didn't eat meat today, which is good.
00:13:53.000 I had one, you know, I ate a turkey sandwich a few weeks ago and people got all bent out of shape.
00:14:00.000 So I've been striving.
00:14:02.000 I've been striving very hard.
00:14:03.000 Not just for people to get mad at me.
00:14:05.000 For God, too, obviously, right?
00:14:07.000 But I've been trying very hard to keep to that.
00:14:09.000 I didn't really eat much at all today.
00:14:11.000 I was kind of sleeping most of the day.
00:14:12.000 I got up early.
00:14:14.000 I got a ton of work done.
00:14:16.000 And then I just like passed out on the couch.
00:14:18.000 I don't even know what happened.
00:14:19.000 I just was out cold.
00:14:21.000 So I didn't even have much to eat at all.
00:14:24.000 It's kind of easy to abstain when you're not awake.
00:14:27.000 You know?
00:14:27.000 It's easy to abstain when you're occupied.
00:14:30.000 Most of the day, but anyway, that's how it's been going for me, but we're gonna dive in.
00:14:36.000 I don't really have a whole lot, not really a whole lot else going on.
00:14:39.000 You know, we're here, we're inside, we're trapped, it's boring.
00:14:42.000 I don't even know what else there is to say anymore with this coronavirus thing.
00:14:47.000 I just want the world to start moving forward again, right?
00:14:50.000 We're gonna dive in and we'll look at what's happening with the coronavirus here on Casual Friday.
00:14:56.000 Of course, I will read off to you our latest numbers here.
00:15:01.000 From our source here, I think BNO is not so good anymore.
00:15:07.000 I checked BNO yesterday and they didn't have the most up-to-date numbers.
00:15:12.000 So I'm using a new source today and yesterday.
00:15:15.000 So our latest numbers here for the coronavirus, we are up to 500,000 cases in the United States.
00:15:20.000 500,000, 1,880 as of right now.
00:15:27.000 We're up to 18,699 dead in the United States, and we have had more than 2,000 new deaths in the last 24 hours.
00:15:39.000 So death rate keeps going up, number of dead keeps going up.
00:15:43.000 Well, you know, what else is new?
00:15:45.000 But that's where we're at in terms of rate, in terms of the total.
00:15:51.000 I don't think so.
00:16:01.000 European countries.
00:16:03.000 Isn't that kind of peculiar with few exceptions?
00:16:06.000 And I don't know if that's because I haven't looked into it too closely outside of the major hot spots like the United States, China, and Europe.
00:16:14.000 But what I'm noticing, and again it might be because of the testing, it might be for other reasons, but it seems like here we are a hundred days into this pandemic and the only countries that really have
00:16:28.000 That have really had a major outbreak are the white countries, European countries and the United States and Canada.
00:16:35.000 And it doesn't seem like it's hitting South America or Asia or Africa or the Middle East, anywhere else in the same way.
00:16:44.000 And remember the first three countries that had an outbreak outside of China were South Korea, Iran and Italy.
00:16:51.000 And South Korea and Iran are nowhere near where it is in Europe.
00:16:55.000 And it's pretty bad in Iran.
00:16:57.000 You know, they're in the top ten and they have been in the top ten.
00:16:59.000 They've got 68,000 cases.
00:17:02.000 And I guess they're maybe a little bit closer to a European, like, phenotype than some of these other countries.
00:17:07.000 But South Korea has kept their numbers low.
00:17:11.000 Japan has kept their numbers low.
00:17:13.000 Right?
00:17:14.000 Vietnam, Hong Kong,
00:17:17.000 You know, no major country in Southeast Asia or really anywhere in Asia has reported a big, big number of cases, even in China, although the official numbers vary from what we suspect their real numbers are.
00:17:31.000 They're not reporting anything major in cities outside of Wuhan.
00:17:35.000 So it's kind of strange.
00:17:36.000 It's kind of bizarre how that works.
00:17:38.000 Why is it that only in Europe has it taken off?
00:17:41.000 And the United States and Canada compared to everywhere else.
00:17:44.000 And, you know, there could be other variables.
00:17:46.000 Like I said, maybe other countries don't have widespread testing like we do.
00:17:50.000 We didn't have big numbers until we had widespread testing.
00:17:54.000 And maybe there's other reasons that are pertaining to travel or, you know, what kinds of precautions were taken and when against the pandemic.
00:18:01.000 But it just seems a little bit bizarre, especially Asia, because you would assume that if the virus started in China,
00:18:10.000 You would assume that the virus would spread rapidly all across Asia first, and then Europe, and then the United States, just because of proximity, just because of geography.
00:18:21.000 The closer you are to a country, probably the more travel and commerce there is, the more opportunities there are for transmission, and the faster the virus might spread, as opposed to the virus going all the way to Europe and infecting Europe before it infects
00:18:37.000 Singapore, before it infects Hong Kong, Japan, right, all these other countries.
00:18:42.000 So I find that to be a little bit strange that Asia has not really had a major outbreak to speak of outside of Wuhan, but it's in every major city, in every country in Europe, even the small countries, even Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, right, Austria, and it's all the way in the United States.
00:19:01.000 Before it's hit really bad in Southeast Asia.
00:19:04.000 East Asia just seems very peculiar.
00:19:06.000 But anyway, those are the numbers.
00:19:08.000 Just some sneaking suspicions.
00:19:10.000 I have a feeling something's not right here.
00:19:12.000 Something is definitely strange.
00:19:15.000 And I don't know if we'll ever get to the bottom of this.
00:19:18.000 But we still don't know the origin of the virus.
00:19:21.000 China is still lying to us about it.
00:19:24.000 We've got all these peculiarities geographically and how it's spreading in other countries, and then we're going to talk about these hospital bed numbers, but I'm starting to suspect that something is off here.
00:19:35.000 And I know a lot of you guys have been saying this for a long time, and I think even I said this when the coronavirus first started back in January, that something is not right here.
00:19:45.000 And we've been kind of going with the flow and monitoring it for your sake, for your own financial and health situation.
00:19:54.000 And we've been watching the developments from the government and talking about it from a political perspective, but I have to tell you that increasingly, and it's only, I've only gotten, this feeling has only grown stronger over the past few months, that something is very much not right here.
00:20:09.000 Something just really doesn't sit well with me when you look at what's happening with this immunity passport and Bill Gates and the origin of the virus and this Chinese laboratory.
00:20:19.000 That conversation isn't happening anymore, by the way.
00:20:23.000 That it's not spreading in Asia.
00:20:24.000 I mean the list goes on and on of things that just seem out of place for a pandemic like this.
00:20:30.000 But in any case, those are our latest numbers.
00:20:32.000 We're gonna dive into the news and I think this will only bolster what I'm saying right now.
00:20:38.000 So our first big development is actually about mass surveillance.
00:20:41.000 One of the things they're talking about now with the virus is how they're going to improve their contact tracing.
00:20:49.000 And remember we talked about this yesterday.
00:20:51.000 Contact tracing is when somebody gets diagnosed with coronavirus or they get tested and confirmed with coronavirus.
00:20:59.000 And then the government or the health care officials, they will look into who that person came into contact with
00:21:06.000 Over the course of the incubation period, right, over the course of the amount of time that they would have been contagious, they would have been transmitting the virus, and they see who that person came into contact with, where they went, and that is a way that they're able to contain and control the spread of the virus.
00:21:23.000 You know, for example, somebody comes into the hospital and tests positive with coronavirus, they might look at that person's family, and that person's workplace, and that person's school, or whatever.
00:21:35.000 And they'll locate the people that might have been exposed to the virus and they'll monitor those people, maybe they'll get them tested, and if they can find everybody that that person might have infected and they can test them and see who has it and who doesn't, then that is a much more scientific and efficient way of containing the virus than saying, nobody can go outside, nobody can do anything, right?
00:21:58.000 I don't know.
00:22:20.000 We're good to go.
00:22:38.000 And how it's going to work is people are going to, I guess, voluntarily plug into this software if they tested positive for the coronavirus.
00:22:47.000 And I guess if everybody gets the software then the Apple and Google, this machinery, will tell them if they came into contact with the person and
00:22:57.000 Then they're able to quarantine and contain people that have been exposed to it.
00:23:00.000 And this is from the New York Times.
00:23:02.000 It talks a little bit about this.
00:23:04.000 It says, quote, in one of the most far-ranging attempts to halt the spread of the coronavirus, Apple and Google said they were building software into smartphones that would tell people if they were recently in contact with someone who was infected with the virus.
00:23:17.000 The technology giants said they were teaming up to release the tool within several months, building it into the operating systems of the billions of iPhones and Android devices around the world.
00:23:28.000 That would enable the smartphones to constantly log other devices they come near, enabling what is known as contact tracing of the disease.
00:23:37.000 People would opt-in
00:23:39.000 To use the tool and voluntarily report if they became infected.
00:23:43.000 The app would then alert phones that had recently come into proximity with that person's device.
00:23:49.000 So, I don't know if this is an app.
00:23:50.000 I guess they're building it into the operating system, which means that it's not a choice.
00:23:56.000 You update your software for the phone.
00:23:59.000 You know, if it's Apple, it's your iOS.
00:24:01.000 If it's Android, that's their
00:24:04.000 We're good to go.
00:24:19.000 And that part is involuntary, obviously.
00:24:22.000 And the software will be built in, you'll opt in, voluntarily put in your information, and it will log who you came into contact with and alert people based on that.
00:24:33.000 And of course, if you're an idiot, you might say, oh, that's a great idea!
00:24:37.000 That's a great way that we can do contact tracing and
00:24:41.000 What a fine technology, I failed to see what the problem is.
00:24:44.000 But of course, the involuntary part is that it's baked into the software, it's baked into the operating system.
00:24:52.000 And more than that, you don't opt-in to the tracking, obviously.
00:24:57.000 You might opt-in to receive alerts, maybe you opt-in to enter in your information if you got diagnosed with coronavirus, but clearly what you do not opt-in to is the tracking.
00:25:10.000 That Google and Apple will be tracking everybody, and tracking everybody you come into contact with, and logging all this healthcare information.
00:25:19.000 That metadata that is being collected is not optional.
00:25:23.000 And obviously they do this already to some extent, and apps do this, and maybe the software does this.
00:25:30.000 To the extent to which they're already doing this, I'm not exactly sure.
00:25:34.000 But now, of course, I think it's much more overt, much more explicit, and now you've got this problem of logging all the devices in their proximity to one another.
00:25:45.000 You know, maybe they can log everybody's devices and they have all that information, where each individual was at one point, and, you know, I guess they could put that together and see who was near whom.
00:25:56.000 But now they've got this technology to say, oh, this person's phone was by this person's phone, and
00:26:01.000 So on and it seems like it's opening it up more than it ever was before and then that's what it says in this report that it seems like there's more they're collecting more information than ever before and so while it does say in this report and it's it's so funny how they even try to keep up the facade that it's voluntary it's opt-in really how could you opt-in if you log in and it tells you who you were in touch with two weeks prior right in other words how could you
00:26:30.000 Entering your information in this in the software and saying oh, I just got diagnosed with coronavirus And it tells you who you were in contact with in the past two weeks You know clearly that's not opt-in clearly that's not voluntary they have to be collecting everything all the time in order to have that information on hand and
00:26:48.000 We're good to go?
00:27:03.000 With the virus.
00:27:05.000 It's mass surveillance, it's government identification, right?
00:27:10.000 Government control, it seems like committees taking more information than ever, corporations, private and public sector alliances collecting more data than ever.
00:27:19.000 And it's things like this that make me really concerned because let's say this coronavirus turns out to be a nothing, right?
00:27:27.000 Let's say, hypothetically,
00:27:29.000 That after this coronavirus infects 150 million people, that the death rate turns out to be similar to the flu, right?
00:27:39.000 Because that's the big concern, is if the death rate is 3%, then 150 million people getting the virus is catastrophic.
00:27:46.000 If 0.3% die from the coronavirus, then you're talking about the flu.
00:27:50.000 You're talking about something that is
00:27:53.000 The same magnitude or in the ballpark of any ordinary disease that we deal with on an annual basis.
00:28:00.000 So let's say that that's the case.
00:28:02.000 Let's say that the coronavirus, when all is said and done, has a death rate that's similar to the flu or another conventional infectious disease that we have immunity for.
00:28:12.000 Let's say that that's the case.
00:28:14.000 After all is said and done, are we going to end up in a situation where Google and Apple and the government and the World Health Organization and the UN and the CDC have created a massive contact tracing
00:28:27.000 Testing, immunity, passport, infrastructure that sees everything?
00:28:33.000 And not only does it see everything, that was a given, and I said this the other week, that that already exists, and that's true.
00:28:40.000 But more disturbingly, now all this information is being shared among all these different entities.
00:28:47.000 That to me is maybe where the real source of concern comes from.
00:28:51.000 Because we know that the NSA collects information, and we know that Google collects your information, and we know that Facebook collects information, and so on.
00:29:00.000 But what we're seeing with the coronavirus, and this was the first thing that happened that Trump announced in the Rose Garden, was the public and private partnership.
00:29:08.000 Right?
00:29:10.000 Trump came out with Walmart and Google and Walgreens and the laboratories and the CDC.
00:29:19.000 And he said, we have an unprecedented public-private partnership to tackle the coronavirus.
00:29:25.000 So now, is it the case?
00:29:26.000 And by the way, things have been trending this way all along, you know, for the past 10 years, 20 years, whatever.
00:29:33.000 You've always had some degree of public-private partnership, but is it acceding now to a new level where there's virtually no distinction between these entities?
00:29:42.000 And it goes from public to private, but then also to the supranational level, to the international level, where now is Bill Gates and the World Health Organization going to get all this information?
00:29:53.000 Is the UN going to get this information?
00:29:55.000 So to me, all of this is very disturbing, because if we're at a flu-like level with the coronavirus, and when all is said and done, this unholy leviathan world government apparatus is created,
00:30:08.000 It seems to me like that was just the pretext for creating that infrastructure, doesn't it?
00:30:13.000 It seems like some combination of media, health, international institutions teamed up to scare everybody into creating this, and that was the end game all along.
00:30:25.000 And I was saying weeks ago that we could do that for nationalist ends.
00:30:30.000 We should do that for
00:30:32.000 You know, Bolshevik, not Bolshevik, I mean the Nazval nationalist type reasons, but maybe it was the case that the seeds were planted by all these other institutions instead.
00:30:43.000 And that is also true with
00:30:46.000 We're good to go!
00:31:06.000 They're talking about this immunity passport where, and they weren't specific about this early on, but they said that there would be some passport system where you will be tested and if you had the coronavirus and you no longer have the coronavirus, if you're immune from it, then you're going to be able to reintegrate into society to a greater extent than everybody else or sooner than everybody else.
00:31:31.000 In other words, maybe everybody will remain on lockdown until you get immune from the virus, and then basically the government decides, okay, you're immune, here's your stamp, and now you can go back into the world.
00:31:44.000 And the question was, what does that look like?
00:31:46.000 Is that a tattoo?
00:31:47.000 Is that, you know, a microchip?
00:31:50.000 Is that a piece of paper?
00:31:51.000 Is that an ID card?
00:31:53.000 What does that look like?
00:31:54.000 How do you establish immunity?
00:31:55.000 Right?
00:31:56.000 And there were some questions about that.
00:31:58.000 And today in the United States, Dr. Anthony Fauci floated the idea of an antibody test, which might be this immunity passport, might be the basis for an immunity passport.
00:32:08.000 In other words, they will test you to see if you have the coronavirus antibodies.
00:32:13.000 In other words, your immune system has developed the ability to respond to the coronavirus.
00:32:18.000 That is a demonstration of immunity.
00:32:21.000 You don't even have to get the virus potentially to have these antibodies.
00:32:25.000 And if that's the case, then you're able to reintegrate sooner or to a greater extent than everybody else.
00:32:31.000 And I'll read you, this is the report here from the New York Times.
00:32:35.000 It's talking about
00:32:37.000 I'm sorry, I have the wrong report in front of me.
00:32:40.000 So the report actually, I actually just gave you all the information about the passport.
00:32:45.000 That is the gist of it.
00:32:47.000 And the immunity passport, or I'm sorry, the antibody test would be a finger prick.
00:32:52.000 They say that the test is actually very simple.
00:32:55.000 I was looking at a different report which we'll get into.
00:32:57.000 This is about the beds.
00:33:00.000 The antibody test is just a finger prick.
00:33:03.000 It's not a needle.
00:33:05.000 It's not, well, it's not like a, you know, conventional needle.
00:33:09.000 It's a finger prick.
00:33:10.000 They test your blood.
00:33:10.000 They see if they have the antibodies.
00:33:12.000 They're ordering them as we speak.
00:33:14.000 They say that they'll be available in the next several days.
00:33:17.000 Two weeks or maybe months.
00:33:19.000 At least it might be months for widespread antibody testing.
00:33:23.000 People that have already had the coronavirus will get them sooner than everybody else, but they're saying that that will be the basis for a possible immunity test in the United States.
00:33:32.000 And of course, nothing is set in stone yet.
00:33:34.000 This hasn't been greenlit.
00:33:35.000 This is not something that people are talking about.
00:33:38.000 The antibody tests are being developed and they are being produced now.
00:33:42.000 I think they just produced one
00:33:44.000 They just developed one.
00:33:45.000 It's in production now and it's being distributed soon.
00:33:47.000 But the idea of the immunity passport has not been... that's not set in stone yet.
00:33:52.000 That's not concrete.
00:33:54.000 So for now they have the antibody test and they'll see who's immune and who's not.
00:33:58.000 But they floated the idea of that being the basis of some kind of certificate where then you'll get your antibody test.
00:34:05.000 The government will give you the green light and they say okay now you can go out there.
00:34:09.000 And you know to me this is very much along the same lines as what we saw with
00:34:13.000 Well, we just talked about with the mass surveillance.
00:34:15.000 And we talked about this last week, too, when it happened in Europe.
00:34:18.000 This is where I have to draw the line.
00:34:20.000 And you could say the virus is out there, and you could say that there are precautions that are necessary, like a mask, or a temperature check, or whatever.
00:34:30.000 And I ridiculed libertarians for being so reactive about all this from the beginning.
00:34:37.000 I don't think it's a tyrannical government takeover to say that
00:34:40.000 You have to wear a mask on public transportation.
00:34:43.000 I don't think it's a government takeover.
00:34:45.000 I don't think it's tyranny for the government to say that you have to have a temperature check.
00:34:49.000 If you check your temperature and you have a fever during a time of pandemic, when you have a virus that is spreading that we know very little about, that seems to me to be a reasonable restriction to put in place.
00:35:00.000 Telling people they can't gather in crowds of more than 30 or 100 and varied state by state, to me, when you put that in place temporarily during a pandemic, that doesn't seem like a tyrannical takeover.
00:35:11.000 That, to me, is something that is below my threshold of concern for government takeover, for global, you know, new world order type control.
00:35:22.000 When you start to talk about mass surveillance with Apple and Google, when you start to talk about
00:35:27.000 Public-private partnerships?
00:35:30.000 Immunity passports?
00:35:32.000 Antibody tests?
00:35:33.000 ID2020?
00:35:33.000 Tattoos?
00:35:34.000 Microchips?
00:35:45.000 I don't know.
00:36:08.000 That is mandatory for everybody, and unless you pass the test, then you're not going to be able to reintegrate into society, and God knows what's in the test.
00:36:16.000 If there is, you know, ink, if there is a chip or something like that, and it paves the way for government identification or government surveillance, that to me is an overstep.
00:36:27.000 That to me is indicative of a larger agenda, and it all seems to be trending in that direction.
00:36:33.000 And that is something to me that we should be pushing back hard against.
00:36:36.000 So even if it costs lives to do that, I think it's actually worth it.
00:36:41.000 Even if the coronavirus is very deadly, I'd actually rather take my chances with a global pandemic than take my chances with Bill Gates and the World Health Organization and Jeff Bezos.
00:36:54.000 We're good to go!
00:37:16.000 Alliance structure for the foreseeable future.
00:37:19.000 I don't think that is preferable to hundreds of thousands, frankly, dying from a pandemic.
00:37:25.000 Pandemics happen and countries recover from pandemics.
00:37:29.000 World government, you know, that to me is something that you don't come back from.
00:37:32.000 So that's the antibody test, that is surveillance, but
00:37:37.000 I'll tell you the reason for my concern.
00:37:39.000 The reason for my concern all of a sudden is because of these evolving numbers.
00:37:43.000 And not just the death rate, but these statistical models about the deaths.
00:37:48.000 And this is the report that I was about to read a moment ago.
00:37:50.000 I got my notes mixed up here.
00:37:52.000 There's a report now in the New York Times, and this is information that's been
00:37:56.000 Being reported across the country for the past week or so that none of these runs on hospital beds or other resources are actually materializing.
00:38:07.000 You know, we were warned two weeks ago, and I think I talked about this last Monday, I said the next wave, the next challenge from this pandemic
00:38:16.000 Is that right?
00:38:39.000 It'll be the lack of respirators, ventilators, hospital beds, ICUs, medical personnel, technicians, things of that nature.
00:38:49.000 But that's not materializing.
00:38:50.000 All across the country, you have empty hospitals, you have hospitals that are laying off workers, you have hospitals that are running out of money because they don't have elective procedures being done, because people are not going into their hospitals.
00:39:04.000 They cleared out
00:39:05.000 All their facilities in preparation of major coronavirus overrun, and that never happened.
00:39:12.000 And so now, in some cases, they're closing hospitals.
00:39:16.000 And I'll dive into this report here from the New York Times, talking about even the situation in New York City, where it's the worst off.
00:39:23.000 It says, quote, New York's daily death toll continues to be staggering, approaching 800 for a third straight day, and some hospitals are still teetering on the brink of chaos.
00:39:34.000 But, after closing schools, shuttering most businesses, and ordering people to stay home, the state has managed to avoid the apocalyptic vision some forecasters were predicting weeks ago.
00:39:46.000 As the number of intensive care beds being used in the state fell for the first time during the outbreak,
00:39:52.000 According to figures released on Friday, the data showed that 18,569 people in New York were hospitalized with the virus, which is far below the dire projections that as many as 140,000 hospital beds could be needed as the outbreak peaked.
00:40:11.000 So we're nearing the peak of the outbreak.
00:40:15.000 In New York, New Jersey, right on the eastern seaboard there, we're nearing the peak.
00:40:20.000 They said that there would be a need for 140,000 beds.
00:40:24.000 Hospitalizations are going down.
00:40:27.000 ICU beds, at least being used by coronavirus patients, are going down, not up.
00:40:33.000 And the number is 18,569 in terms of hospitalizations.
00:40:38.000 They were predicting 140,000.
00:40:41.000 It's less than 20,000.
00:40:42.000 And we may have already... Are you kidding me?
00:40:45.000 We may have already passed the peak.
00:40:47.000 Okay, so we just can't catch a break on this show, right?
00:40:52.000 My left light just went out.
00:40:55.000 Let me go turn it back on.
00:40:56.000 Seriously?
00:40:58.000 Some good Friday, huh?
00:41:01.000 I swear, there's gonna be a hole in the wall by the end of this show.
00:41:09.000 Alright, I hope that... I hope that stays.
00:41:14.000 Because if that goes out again, there's going to be another hole in the wall.
00:41:20.000 Can't catch a break.
00:41:21.000 What a show, right?
00:41:22.000 We got the green screen shirt, we got the light going on, my notes are all over the place, man.
00:41:29.000 I tell you, some days you just can't win.
00:41:31.000 This is no news.
00:41:33.000 10th consecutive week, no news.
00:41:36.000 I'm nearing the breaking point here.
00:41:38.000 I'm nearing the coronavirus breaking point.
00:41:41.000 Some people are nearing the breaking point because like, you know, all the relatives are dead and they can't feed their kids.
00:41:48.000 They got laid off.
00:41:49.000 And I'm just like, no news.
00:41:52.000 My lights are going out.
00:41:53.000 My green screen's all fucked up.
00:41:56.000 Sheesh.
00:41:58.000 Somebody says, why I oughta?
00:42:00.000 Why I oughta?
00:42:01.000 Yeah, for real.
00:42:04.000 Anyway, I'm losing it over here.
00:42:05.000 Where was I?
00:42:06.000 What was I even saying?
00:42:09.000 Lost my train of thought there.
00:42:10.000 I'm about to fly off the handle here.
00:42:12.000 But then I remembered it's Casual Friday, and we have a low-key energy, right?
00:42:16.000 Then I remembered it's supposed to be a relaxed show.
00:42:20.000 Show's so boring anyway.
00:42:21.000 This show sucks with all this, you know, dumbass news about the coronavirus.
00:42:26.000 It's bad enough, bad enough we don't have any content for the show, and now the production's failing.
00:42:31.000 Anyway, what was I saying about the...
00:42:34.000 Beds or whatever.
00:42:36.000 So it's 140,000 predicted.
00:42:36.000 We're at less than 20,000 beds being used.
00:42:38.000 This is in New York City alone.
00:42:45.000 Right, this is a New York City where you have the most people, obviously it's the highest population density in the country, biggest population, biggest, you know, most populated city in the country.
00:42:57.000 This is the worst of the worst, right?
00:43:00.000 It's the peak in the biggest, most densely populated city with the worst outbreak.
00:43:05.000 And they're at a small fraction of what was projected for hospitalizations.
00:43:11.000 Not death, not infected, but hospitalizations.
00:43:14.000 They projected $140,000.
00:43:16.000 Obviously that's seven times more than what we actually have, which is $18,000.
00:43:20.000 It says Governor Cuomo of New York has relied on several models in making his decisions, and while each is slightly different, they all convinced him that the wisest course of action was to plan for the worst while hoping for the best.
00:43:34.000 When asked on Friday if he feared losing credibility for trusting some models that have proven to be less than accurate, Mr. Cuomo said no.
00:43:42.000 He said, I think my credibility would be affected if I didn't ask experts for their opinion.
00:43:48.000 The governor also said that the discrepancy between the predictions and the actual statistics had been caused by the behavior of New Yorkers themselves.
00:43:57.000 Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House Coronavirus Response Coordinator, seemed to agree and congratulated Mr. Cuomo and his counterparts on Friday for having slowed the tide of infections in their states.
00:44:10.000 Dr. Birx said, quote, that has dramatically changed because of the impact of what the citizens of New York and New Jersey and across Connecticut and now Rhode Island are doing to really change the course of this pandemic.
00:44:23.000 The total number of confirmed cases in New York State rose by nearly 11,000 from Thursday to Friday, the largest single day increase yet, and now stands at 170,812.
00:44:35.000 The 777 new deaths in New York pushed the state's death toll to 7,844 and the total for the tri-state region of New York, New Jersey and Connecticut over 10,000.
00:44:49.000 So, to me, this is really suspect.
00:44:52.000 Because it's not like the numbers are a little bit inaccurate, right?
00:44:56.000 And they put it so nicely here in this article.
00:44:59.000 The models have proven to be less than accurate.
00:45:03.000 Less than accurate.
00:45:04.000 You're projecting 140,000 hospitalizations
00:45:09.000 And they're at 18,000.
00:45:10.000 That's a little bit more than less than accurate.
00:45:15.000 They were projecting millions of dead people.
00:45:18.000 Now they're projecting 60,000.
00:45:19.000 That's a little bit less.
00:45:22.000 That's a little bit more than less than accurate.
00:45:25.000 That's less than accurate.
00:45:26.000 It's wildly wrong.
00:45:28.000 It's incorrect.
00:45:30.000 It's so wrong that it's basically useless at that point.
00:45:34.000 And I was willing to say that, well maybe you get less death because obviously you shut down the country.
00:45:40.000 And that makes sense to me.
00:45:42.000 That makes enough sense to me.
00:45:43.000 When you're talking about hospitalizations,
00:45:46.000 To me, I don't understand how the projection could be seven times less than what they expected.
00:45:52.000 I don't understand how that could be possible.
00:45:55.000 How could the forecast be that wildly wrong?
00:45:58.000 And if that's the case, to what extent is that a result of the change in behavior?
00:46:03.000 Was that a 140,000 bed projection, assuming that nobody at all would social distance?
00:46:10.000 To what extent was... did the New Yorkers radically
00:46:14.000 Beat the odds, right?
00:46:15.000 Did they expect that nobody would participate and then everybody participated?
00:46:19.000 I don't understand how you get an order of magnitude of 7 like that, or multiple rather, of 7 in terms of these projections.
00:46:28.000 And to me, if that's not materializing in New York, it's not going to materialize anywhere else.
00:46:36.000 That won't materialize in Detroit, or New Orleans, or LA, or in the South, or any other state, or any other city.
00:46:43.000 And that's supposed to be the worst of the worst.
00:46:46.000 So it's not going to happen anywhere else.
00:46:48.000 And so at the end of all of this, are we going to be looking at a situation where hardly anybody died?
00:46:54.000 Hardly anybody was hospitalized relative to what we were being told?
00:46:57.000 And then in that case, how do we justify all the action that's been taken up until now?
00:47:03.000 16 million people are unemployed.
00:47:06.000 The stock market has collapsed.
00:47:08.000 GDP is going to shrink for the next like three quarters.
00:47:11.000 They're saying we might not even fully recover by the end of next year, by the end of 2021.
00:47:17.000 They're saying that this will have catalyzed the worst recession since the Great Depression.
00:47:22.000 It might constitute a depression in itself.
00:47:25.000 Will all of that have been worth it if the death rate for the coronavirus ends up being 0.3%?
00:47:32.000 If it ends up in less than 60,000 people die?
00:47:35.000 That you don't even have a shortage of medical supplies?
00:47:38.000 And obviously that would be a good thing in some sense.
00:47:41.000 It would be a good thing if we didn't have a horrible, catastrophic pandemic on our hands.
00:47:46.000 It'd be a good thing if people didn't die.
00:47:47.000 That would be a good thing.
00:47:49.000 And like I said, it might be a good thing if slightly less people died than were projected, if we were able to save lots of lives because we took drastic action.
00:47:57.000 But what if drastic action was never warranted at all?
00:48:01.000 What if the numbers are shrinking without the social distancing being factored in?
00:48:08.000 Right?
00:48:08.000 In other words, what if that's where the numbers were going to settle regardless of whether or not we stayed inside?
00:48:15.000 What if the death rate was going to be 0.3% all along?
00:48:18.000 And not just because.
00:48:20.000 Everybody started to take this seriously and all the rest.
00:48:24.000 To me that is going to be a disaster and what do you even do in that circumstance?
00:48:30.000 I think it would almost actually be worth it to simply lie and say well we averted crisis.
00:48:37.000 At that point it would be in the government's best interest to simply lie and tell people that it was going to be so bad but Trump saved us because how would you ever come back from something like that where the government tells you
00:48:52.000 Stay inside, 16 million unemployed.
00:48:55.000 If we endured all of this and just wait for the economic fallout to hit, it hasn't even started.
00:49:01.000 For us to endure all of this, this insane fever dream that we've been living for the past month and a half, or rather for the past month I guess at this point, and it was all for nothing.
00:49:14.000 You know, think about all the plans that were disrupted.
00:49:17.000 School plans, wedding plans, social outings, trips.
00:49:22.000 Businesses shut down.
00:49:23.000 If all of that happened, it was all for nothing.
00:49:26.000 You know, I guess that might be a good thing in some sense.
00:49:29.000 I mean, why would we?
00:49:30.000 The only reason I'm saying that is for Trump's sake, for winning re-election.
00:49:35.000 Maybe it would be a good thing overall if that happened to the government, that people stopped trusting the government and there was some kind of mass reaction to this.
00:49:43.000 But these are very, very confusing times.
00:49:45.000 And again, this is just a hypothetical.
00:49:48.000 I still believe that we should be cautious and I still believe that probably you know a lot of people are going to die still and if we reopen the country I think there's going to be a big resurgence in cases and we might have to get to this on Monday because we're running out of time here but that's a whole that's a big report in itself talking about these various models projecting what could happen if we reopen too soon you're gonna have you know lots more people dead lots more infected
00:50:16.000 And you know, we're just talking about models a moment ago.
00:50:19.000 Should we trust these statistical models?
00:50:21.000 So I do basically still believe that there is a threat posed by the coronavirus and it still is something we'll live with.
00:50:27.000 And everything I've said is still true about building up immunity and a vaccine and all of this.
00:50:33.000 But the question is, what is the death rate going to be?
00:50:35.000 That's the big question.
00:50:37.000 Because you look at the numbers and not only are drastically less people dying, drastically more people that are asymptomatic showing up in the data.
00:50:47.000 Less hospitalizations than were ever thought.
00:50:49.000 But more than that, if you look at who is dying from the coronavirus, almost everybody that's dying from the virus is somebody with a pre-existing condition.
00:50:59.000 The people that are dying without pre-existing conditions is like a negligible number.
00:51:04.000 It's virtually nobody.
00:51:06.000 Nobody is dying that's not either elderly or has a pre-existing condition.
00:51:11.000 And so what are we really doing if we shut down the whole country and we shut down really the whole world over a disease which is basically a mild virus but if you have a pre-existing condition there might be extreme complications.
00:51:26.000 So at this point I think we are moving from you know if there are two camps on this coronavirus debate from people that are saying it's all bullshit it's not real the whole thing's a government hoax to people saying it's this is terrible and this is a deadly pandemic and you're gonna die from coronavirus I think we have firmly moved into the middle I was probably
00:51:48.000 Moderately on the side of saying this is a bad pandemic and what the government said is probably warranted.
00:51:55.000 I'm probably moving much more closer and maybe firmly in the middle as saying that as we start to see the peak and as we move towards reconstruction or reintegration, I am very suspicious about the direction these things are going.
00:52:09.000 I'm very suspicious about the new numbers that are being reported.
00:52:13.000 In Europe, in the United States, in Asia, nothing here really seems to add up.
00:52:17.000 And it never did from the beginning by the way.
00:52:20.000 And we talked about this all the way back in January, how nothing was adding up.
00:52:24.000 They were telling us that the virus came from a wet market.
00:52:27.000 We're good to go!
00:52:46.000 They don't sell that bat at the wet market.
00:52:48.000 That bat doesn't even exist within a huge radius of that wet market.
00:52:53.000 There's this Institute of Virology right next door to the wet market.
00:52:57.000 The patient zero and the first people that got the virus weren't exposed to the wet market, right?
00:53:03.000 So that was how this all started.
00:53:04.000 We didn't even know the origin of this virus.
00:53:07.000 Then we find out that if you look at the structure of the virus, it has a signature that looks a lot like AIDS and SARS, almost like a designer virus.
00:53:15.000 It's this nasty, it's got this nasty composition that looks almost like it was put together, like a bioweapon.
00:53:23.000 And that would be consistent with the explanation that it came from some high security clearance level virus institute, as opposed to a wet market, right?
00:53:32.000 And then you have the lies from China, and the lies from the World Health Organization.
00:53:37.000 We're good to go.
00:53:54.000 It's more falsehoods.
00:53:56.000 The statistics are wrong.
00:53:58.000 The institutions are lying.
00:54:00.000 I don't know what to believe at this point.
00:54:01.000 And at first I thought, well, pandemics happen and certainly we're in the midst of one.
00:54:06.000 But the severity of it, that is the question mark.
00:54:09.000 What is the death rate?
00:54:10.000 How severe is it?
00:54:12.000 What threat does this pose to the average person?
00:54:14.000 And then compare that to the threat of shutting down the economy.
00:54:18.000 It's probably much worse to shut down the economy
00:54:23.000 We're good to go!
00:54:42.000 So, to me, seeing the economy destroyed and this usurpation by multinational corporations, the UN, the WHO, billionaires, that to me seems like a much graver threat than something that may be on the scale of a flu or even a little bit greater than the flu.
00:55:00.000 So that's that's going to be the question moving forward and we'll have more information next week and as the weeks go by but I'm not liking it.
00:55:08.000 I'm not liking it one bit.
00:55:09.000 I don't like the solutions.
00:55:11.000 I don't like these people.
00:55:12.000 I don't like Fauci.
00:55:13.000 I don't like Burks.
00:55:14.000 I don't like Bill Gates.
00:55:16.000 I don't like, who is it, Tedros is the director of the WHO.
00:55:20.000 I don't like China.
00:55:22.000 I don't like any of it and I don't like these new numbers.
00:55:25.000 Hospitalizations, deaths,
00:55:27.000 I don't like that it looks like only people with complications are dying.
00:55:32.000 None of it seems to be adding up.
00:55:33.000 None of it seems to actually be true.
00:55:36.000 And it could very well be that we were all just suckers in a big game, the big push all of a sudden for global control.
00:55:42.000 And I was suspicious of that at first.
00:55:45.000 Of course, I was suspicious of all this information for months, you know, and I was one of the first to sound the alarm on immunity passport and
00:55:54.000 I said that maybe the chip would be a little far-fetched but immunity passport is certainly there and the chip seems increasingly likely and even going all the way back to the origin of the virus none of it none of it makes a lot of sense but we'll see
00:56:09.000 That's where I'm at right now.
00:56:11.000 I'm questioning.
00:56:12.000 I'm skeptical.
00:56:13.000 I'm suspicious.
00:56:14.000 I'm not all the way there yet, but I think there are some major questions that need to be asked.
00:56:19.000 Now that it seems that the worst has been prevented, maybe it was never going to happen, but at the very least we could say that the worst has been averted, the worst has been avoided.
00:56:30.000 I think now is the time for the hard questions and to say, what kind of world are we going to live in and what just transpired?
00:56:37.000 After we get over this hump, I think we'll have the luxury of asking these questions, but we're gonna move on.
00:56:42.000 We'll take a look at our Super Chats, and we'll see what you guys are saying.
00:56:45.000 A lot of questions tonight, not a lot of answers.
00:56:49.000 And that's sometimes how it goes, right?
00:56:52.000 On this Friday, we've got big questions, but I guess we'll find out more as the days and the weeks go on.
00:56:59.000 In particular, in the next few weeks, because they'll have to make a decision about when to open up the country.
00:57:04.000 And you know what?
00:57:05.000 When they open up the country, that's when we'll know.
00:57:07.000 Because right now, the CDC guidelines are going to last until May 1st.
00:57:14.000 And so the question is, are those guidelines going to expire on May 1st, or will they be extended to May 30th?
00:57:22.000 Will they be extended beyond that?
00:57:40.000 If that doesn't happen, if Trump boldly reopens the country and everybody gets back to work and maybe you see a big spike in infections but hospitalizations don't go crazy and death doesn't go crazy, well then we'll say, was it really worth it to begin with?
00:57:56.000 So there's a lot of moving parts, a lot of variables, but we'll see what happens.
00:58:00.000 I'm gonna take a little sip here.
00:58:05.000 We're good to go!
00:58:19.000 It feels like in Revenge of the Sith.
00:58:21.000 I've been watching that movie, like, over and over.
00:58:24.000 And throughout the movie, they keep saying, like, these are confusing times.
00:58:29.000 You have to be very careful.
00:58:30.000 The dark side clouds everything.
00:58:32.000 Same energy.
00:58:33.000 Very much similar energy.
00:58:35.000 Same energy as that.
00:58:37.000 Because I don't really know what's going on.
00:58:41.000 Alright, let's see.
00:58:42.000 Soviet Henry says Animal Crossing got banned in China.
00:58:45.000 Be careful.
00:58:47.000 Careful of what?
00:58:55.000 Well, Owen Benjamin is literally gay, so probably him.
00:59:04.000 You know?
00:59:05.000 And I, you know, that's just the way it is.
00:59:07.000 I mean, Owen Benjamin, you know, hey, hey, listen, Owen.
00:59:11.000 Well, I don't know.
00:59:11.000 I mean, there is... I was gonna say, hey, not that there's anything wrong with that.
00:59:14.000 There is.
00:59:16.000 We're good to go!
00:59:41.000 If you're going if you're taking the literal definition of who is more gay, well, I believe Stefan Molyneux is Not gay at all like in that way, but Owen Benjamin has admittedly been Up to no good in that area but You know, I don't know it's tough to say because at least Owen Benjamin I mean, you know, I don't want to really say anything too positive about him because he's been very nasty towards me and
01:00:08.000 And nasty is really an understatement.
01:00:10.000 I mean, he's just said things that are so not right about me and my family.
01:00:14.000 But if you're going to compare and contrast the two in an objective way, Stefan Molyneux, well, they're both Jewish, and they both do this thing where they like pretend to be based, but they're really not.
01:00:26.000 You know, Stefan Molyneux is Jewish.
01:00:28.000 Owen Benjamin is Jewish.
01:00:30.000 They're both admitted ethnically Jewish.
01:00:33.000 And
01:00:34.000 They'll both do this thing where they pretend like they're based, they pretend like they're going to talk about Jewish power, or they pretend like they're going to talk about, you know, the religious Jewish angle, but then they back away from it, you know?
01:00:48.000 They come right up to the line, just enough where they delude people into thinking they're honest, just enough where they get you thinking that they're one way on the subject, and then they're going to back off.
01:00:59.000 Like, Stefan Molyneux is the archetypal, he is
01:01:03.000 The master at this.
01:01:05.000 And he'll put out a tweet, and people will reply, Based?
01:01:09.000 What do you mean by this?
01:01:10.000 This is so cool!
01:01:12.000 And then, when push comes to shove, he'll say, Oh, you know, my grandmother was a victim of the Holocaust, and anybody who questions the Holocaust should be put in jail, and blah blah blah, and anyone who's anti-semitic is evil, and anti-semitism is evil, and I think Jewish people are amazing, and
01:01:28.000 There's nothing wrong there, and there's no problem at all, right?
01:01:31.000 He does this all the time.
01:01:32.000 They all do that.
01:01:34.000 It's such a grift.
01:01:35.000 It's the biggest grift ever.
01:01:37.000 They sell themselves as, I'm this honest broker, I'll talk about anything, even that, and I'm looking into that, I'm asking questions about that.
01:01:46.000 But then they never answer them.
01:01:47.000 And whenever they're pressed on it, then they shy away, they back off.
01:01:51.000 Just like what happened with me and Stefan, you know?
01:01:54.000 Stefan is such a free speech warrior that he had to disavow and unfollow me and unperson me because I made a joke about a genocide.
01:02:02.000 Well, it wasn't just any genocide, right?
01:02:05.000 So, Stefan does that and Owen Benjamin does too.
01:02:08.000 Owen Benjamin, for a long time, everybody said, oh, he's based, he names them, you know, he says grabbler and this kind of thing.
01:02:15.000 But then, when I say, okay, Owen, like, you know, you're telling me that I won't name them, you're telling me that I'm not based,
01:02:22.000 Or I'm not honest, or I'm, you know, optics-cucking or whatever.
01:02:27.000 But then he will go and say, well, Nick is saying that I'm ethically Jewish, and that's actually really racist, and that's actually really wrong.
01:02:36.000 He thinks that because I'm ethically Jewish, that I'm, you know, that that means something.
01:02:40.000 That doesn't mean anything!
01:02:42.000 That doesn't mean anything!
01:02:43.000 Who cares?
01:02:44.000 That means nothing!
01:02:45.000 What difference does it make?
01:02:46.000 Of course we're talking about behavior!
01:02:49.000 We're talking about culture!
01:02:50.000 We're talking about ideology!
01:02:52.000 I was like, hmm, there it is, right?
01:02:55.000 So both of them have that habit where they pretend that they're cool on the issues just enough so that people like us and my audience will buy into their, you know, they'll buy their book, they'll buy their pay-per-view, you know, sign up for their crummy website, and then when push comes to shove it's, I'm actually a humanist and I'm against racism and I'm, you know, I'm just a soldier of the ADL.
01:03:24.000 So they both do that.
01:03:25.000 When you do this, I don't believe you have to be any particular way but you just have to be honest.
01:03:45.000 You don't have to be, you know, a Catholic, America First nationalist.
01:03:51.000 You know, everybody's entitled to their own beliefs, but just be honest.
01:03:55.000 Just be honest about what you are and what you are not.
01:03:58.000 And I've always been honest about what I am.
01:04:00.000 Even when the left-wing media comes after me or when the right comes after me, I'm always honest about what I am.
01:04:06.000 Have I ever wavered in terms of my ideology or what I stood for?
01:04:10.000 This show has been called America First since it started.
01:04:14.000 This show has been America First for three long years.
01:04:19.000 For over three years.
01:04:21.000 This has been a Christian, American Nationalist, America First, conservative show for more than three years.
01:04:30.000 The positions on trade, the positions on media, on war, on all of it.
01:04:37.000 There have been virtually no changes since the show started.
01:04:41.000 Where there's new information, you might gain a more nuanced understanding, certainly the rhetoric has been refined, even the ideology has been refined over the years, but the core has remained the same, and I've never pretended to be anything else.
01:04:57.000 You know, and when the media calls me a white nationalist and I say that's not true, I'm not pandering to the media, and I'm not pandering to the alt-right, right?
01:05:07.000 I pander to my people.
01:05:10.000 I don't pander to anybody.
01:05:11.000 I tell the truth, and that is what attracts my people.
01:05:14.000 I've always been this America-first, nationalist, Catholic, and what you see is what you get.
01:05:20.000 And I expect that much from everybody.
01:05:22.000 I don't care if you don't believe in the moon landing or whatever.
01:05:24.000 I don't care if you're
01:05:26.000 I'm a free speech absolutist.
01:05:45.000 But you lie!
01:05:46.000 Clearly you don't believe in that, because if people are to the right of Mike Cernovich, if that jeopardizes your ability to hang out with Raheem Kassam and all those characters, you are nothing to do with us.
01:05:58.000 If that creates a problem for you and your ability to get money from certain people,
01:06:03.000 Or get clout from certain groups, then you want nothing to do with them.
01:06:07.000 So you're a liar.
01:06:08.000 So that is not actually what you're about.
01:06:10.000 You might say that you're about this open dialogue and open exchange and rigorous philosophy, but what you really care about is clout and money.
01:06:19.000 You care about fitting in with that group, right?
01:06:22.000 And your reputation.
01:06:23.000 And that would be fine if that's just, you know, look, I make no bones about the fact that I am a strategic actor and I want to win at any cost.
01:06:31.000 I'm not actually about rigorous philosophical debate, and I'll talk to anyone and anybody about any idea.
01:06:37.000 That's not the purpose of this show.
01:06:39.000 The purpose of this show is to move the ball forward for America first, at any cost.
01:06:44.000 And so if I do something strategically, that's what optics was all about.
01:06:48.000 That's what, you know, that whole revolution was all about.
01:06:51.000 And it's paid dividends and you understand that but I've never said like I've never done the Charlie Kirk thing stupidly where I say I'll debate anyone anytime anywhere because it's not true because I want to do things that will benefit me and I want to do things that will benefit my movement and the cause and our ideology our vision for the country
01:07:11.000 Right?
01:07:11.000 I don't position myself as a philosopher.
01:07:14.000 I am a political actor.
01:07:16.000 I want to achieve political ends.
01:07:18.000 I'm not really interested in sophistry.
01:07:20.000 I'm not really interested in philosophical masturbation sessions.
01:07:25.000 But Stefan says he is, but he's not.
01:07:26.000 He cares about money and all that.
01:07:29.000 And then he also does that thing with the Jewish thing.
01:07:32.000 Ah, oh, well, please, you know, he does that thing on Twitter where he'll pull up an anti-white tweet and he'll say, please don't be Jewish, please don't be Jewish.
01:07:41.000 Oh, but they are.
01:07:42.000 And it's like, yeah, we all see that happening.
01:07:44.000 We all see that there are Jewish people on Twitter that will say, I hate white people.
01:07:50.000 As a white person, you know, dear fellow white people,
01:07:53.000 But then when he actually gets pressed on what's going on with that, what's going on with, you know, that Jewish, whatever you want to call it, mindset or whatever, he backs off.
01:08:04.000 And when push comes to shove in the grope roars, and as much as he gave it lip service when it was going to get him clout or my audience was going to look at his stuff, you know, he was going to peddle it in as far as that went.
01:08:15.000 But then when the Holocaust thing came out, then he wanted no part of it.
01:08:18.000 You're unfollowed.
01:08:19.000 You're disavowed.
01:08:20.000 You're disavowed!
01:08:22.000 Some free speech guy, right?
01:08:24.000 And Owen Benjamin is very similar.
01:08:25.000 You know, I'm gonna do the grabber thing and I'm gonna do the edgy comedy thing.
01:08:29.000 I'm gonna take it further than everybody else to show you that I'm a comedian and I don't care.
01:08:34.000 But then when people start to make fun of you because you're, you know, half a past and you have this certain ancestry, then all of a sudden it's, well, you know, there's nothing wrong actually with that.
01:08:46.000 It's just different.
01:08:48.000 I'm Jewish, but it's different.
01:08:49.000 No, I'm not Jewish.
01:08:50.000 Yes, I am.
01:08:51.000 But if I am, it doesn't matter.
01:08:52.000 And I'm not anyway, but if I am...
01:08:55.000 And it's true, I am 25%.
01:08:56.000 No, I'm 12%.
01:08:58.000 No, I'm 8%.
01:09:00.000 But it doesn't matter anyway.
01:09:01.000 But I'm making fun of Grabbler, see?
01:09:03.000 Well, but the real Grabbler thing is not being Jewish, it's something else.
01:09:06.000 It's being, you know, a certain way.
01:09:09.000 And so...
01:09:11.000 Who has the patience?
01:09:12.000 Who has the mental energy for all these gymnastics that these people do?
01:09:16.000 Just say what you mean.
01:09:17.000 Just be straight up.
01:09:18.000 Anyway, I've made my point, but that kind of stuff just makes me so mad.
01:09:22.000 Because I pay a heavy price for actually just being what I am.
01:09:28.000 You know I get attacked by everybody for that reason.
01:09:31.000 If I were just a shill, I'd be the best shill ever.
01:09:34.000 Because I'm really smart.
01:09:36.000 And so I could be a really good shill, and I could tell you what you want to hear, and I could fit the mold of a certain caricature.
01:09:43.000 I could be the, you know, Johnny America, clean cut, whatever.
01:09:49.000 You know what I'm saying?
01:09:50.000 I could put aside some of the more quirky aspects of my personality.
01:09:54.000 I could even say I was a Protestant.
01:09:56.000 That'd be a much better fit.
01:09:58.000 For being an America First nationalist.
01:10:00.000 I could say I'm a Protestant, and I'm wearing a cowboy hat, and I love my guns, and I love my pickup truck, but that's not me.
01:10:09.000 But that's not me.
01:10:10.000 I could adapt myself in both ways.
01:10:13.000 I could adapt myself to be a certain character and to shill.
01:10:18.000 I'm just who I am.
01:10:37.000 And I face criticism from the right for being real on who I am.
01:10:41.000 If I fall short of, you know, being Christ himself or something like that, then you're a fake Catholic, you're a fake nationalist, you know, you're a juvenile, you're, you know, Mexican, you're X, Y, and Z, you're, oh well, you know, you don't drink, you don't smoke, and that means you're not a man, you know what I'm saying?
01:11:01.000 So, just be yourself.
01:11:03.000 Just be yourself.
01:11:06.000 I don't know if he should be in the WWE Hall of Fame.
01:11:08.000 No, I don't think that'd be a good idea.
01:11:30.000 I don't watch these news conferences anymore.
01:11:40.000 They're just boring.
01:11:41.000 I just read the I read the The summary on the news afterwards because I I just can't take it anymore, but thanks for the ninja genie Polish American says his blood be on us and our children if you say so yeah, we all read it and
01:11:58.000 That's what I don't understand.
01:12:10.000 And she said, well, how can you be Catholic if, you know, you don't believe in supporting Israel?
01:12:17.000 And I don't know, it's like, do these people read a different Bible than us?
01:12:20.000 Do they just read a completely different Bible?
01:12:22.000 I don't get it.
01:12:23.000 How can you read the Gospel?
01:12:25.000 How can anybody read the Gospel and not understand what happened there?
01:12:30.000 And they say, no, no, no, it was the Romans, no, no, no, you know, we're supposed to worship Israel, the nation state founded by the Jews in 1948 and the Jews that are, you know, the modern Jews.
01:12:44.000 Are we reading the same book?
01:12:45.000 I don't understand because, you know, when I read the gospel for the first time,
01:12:50.000 Pretty explicit, pretty straightforward what happened there, right?
01:12:55.000 I mean, it's not rocket science.
01:12:57.000 It's not like it really leaves much to the imagination or for interpretation.
01:13:02.000 You know, it's Jesus and it's Barabbas.
01:13:06.000 That's the name, right?
01:13:07.000 Am I saying that right?
01:13:10.000 What do they say?
01:13:11.000 Who are we gonna kill?
01:13:12.000 And they say, Jesus, not this criminal.
01:13:15.000 Let the criminal go.
01:13:16.000 We gotta get Jesus.
01:13:18.000 How should we kill him?
01:13:19.000 Crucify him!
01:13:20.000 They yell out, crucify him!
01:13:23.000 And Pontius Pilate, I'm washing my hands of this!
01:13:27.000 Let his blood be on your hands and all your descendants!
01:13:30.000 And they say, fine with us!
01:13:32.000 And I'm paraphrasing here, but...
01:13:36.000 How is that ambiguous?
01:13:37.000 What am I getting wrong here?
01:13:38.000 What am I missing?
01:13:40.000 What am I getting wrong?
01:13:41.000 I must be the idiot.
01:13:42.000 I must be the Philistine who's not reading that properly.
01:13:46.000 I don't really understand where the disagreement comes in, right?
01:13:54.000 And the whole gospel is like this.
01:13:55.000 It's not just that part.
01:13:57.000 The whole gospel's like this.
01:13:59.000 With the Pharisees, and they try to trick him, and they try to... And they're plotting against him, right?
01:14:05.000 I mean, it's like... I don't know, man.
01:14:13.000 I know that they say, like, well, technically the Romans were the ones to nail him to the cross, but, like... Seriously?
01:14:22.000 I mean, we all know what preceded that.
01:14:24.000 Do we not?
01:14:25.000 I mean, certainly the Romans might have been the ones who actually nailed him and put him up, but... But who were the ones that had him, uh... Who were the ones that had him arrested?
01:14:36.000 Who were the ones that had him crucified, right?
01:14:39.000 That demanded it?
01:14:41.000 That they were the jury?
01:14:42.000 The mob?
01:14:43.000 I mean, so... Anyway.
01:14:46.000 Dallas Gruyper says Surgeon General is literally black and she asks about black racism.
01:14:51.000 Yeah, I did hear about that Because he what did he say he was telling people he was speaking to the blacks and minorities and he said You know if you're not going to do it for yourself do it for Big Mama and he was doing all these all these like
01:15:11.000 Colloquial black expressions kind of funny Modern monarchist says the passion of the Christ has a sequel coming soon Yeah, I've heard about that over the years, but I don't know is that actually coming Protestant groper says can't believe I used to sub to daily wire now.
01:15:27.000 It's yours All I need is Jordan Peterson and masterclass America first.
01:15:32.000 Yeah, that's right Jordan Peterson in the masterclass Then you're gonna be a perfect well-adjusted person you'll be a genius yourself
01:15:41.000 But yeah, that's pretty crazy.
01:15:43.000 It's good to hear when people come over from Daily Wire or, you know, Turning Point or whatever.
01:15:48.000 Well, thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:15:51.000 Yeah, he would be up there.
01:15:52.000 I don't know.
01:16:04.000 there are a lot of people out there you know and that's just it normies are stupid so they they just have no or NPCs I mean you know I'm saying average people are not smart so why would you put a lot of stock in who they think is smart you know what I'm saying like you've got your public smart person
01:16:22.000 You're a pop, smart person, but that means very little, because what the public believes, I think, means very little.
01:16:29.000 The public believes in ridiculous things.
01:16:31.000 Most people believe in ridiculous things and, you know, not very... They don't really think very much, so... You know, if they think Neil deGrasse Tyson... If he has a reputation as being a genius, that means very little to me.
01:16:44.000 So I know exactly the kind of thing you're talking about.
01:16:48.000 I don't know.
01:16:48.000 I think, yeah, he would certainly be up there because he's just one of the worst.
01:16:52.000 So pompous.
01:16:55.000 Barack Obama's up there too.
01:16:56.000 Everyone thinks Barack Obama's a genius.
01:16:58.000 At least liberals do.
01:17:00.000 Maybe something more general would be fitting.
01:17:05.000 People like, uh, what's that guy, Malcolm Gladwell?
01:17:09.000 Don't care for him.
01:17:11.000 I don't care for, who's that guy with the glasses, uh, that very liberal, what's his name, Noam Chomsky?
01:17:18.000 I guess he's written some good books, but, I mean, he's very liberal too.
01:17:24.000 A lot of these public intellectuals.
01:17:26.000 Like that.
01:17:27.000 In that vein, these like liberal, like New York Times best-selling author types.
01:17:32.000 I can't stand.
01:17:33.000 I mean, Noam Chomsky is a brilliant linguist, but then he wades into any other subject and it's like, you know, you're not really anything special here.
01:17:42.000 So it's people like that.
01:17:43.000 Noam Chomsky and Malcolm Gladwell.
01:17:46.000 I really hate the New York Times bestseller types and the TED Talk people.
01:17:51.000 I would say that like as a category, I hate anybody that does a TED Talk.
01:17:54.000 I hate anybody that ends up on the New York Times bestsellers list.
01:17:58.000 I hate the New York Times bestsellers list so much and the kinds of books that end up on there.
01:18:04.000 Maybe you know what I'm talking about, maybe you don't, but...
01:18:07.000 We're good to go.
01:18:37.000 I don't know if I'm doing a good job of explaining it.
01:18:40.000 I'm kind of off tonight.
01:18:42.000 I'm not really feeling it tonight, but
01:19:03.000 That variety of books, I just, I can't stand.
01:19:06.000 And I had my fair share of that in high school.
01:19:09.000 I read a lot of books in high school, and I would read a lot of good books and a lot of bad books, and the bad books I read invariably were the best sellers.
01:19:16.000 It was the number one, it was the Mark Levin book, it was the, you know, whatever.
01:19:24.000 Even Ann Coulter's book was shit.
01:19:27.000 It's right there on my shelf.
01:19:28.000 In Trump We Trust?
01:19:29.000 Here, let me get that book and I'll show you what I mean.
01:19:33.000 I'm getting up.
01:19:33.000 I already got up once.
01:19:35.000 I might as well get up again.
01:19:36.000 I'll find it for ya.
01:19:47.000 Okay, so I guess Ann Coulter, I mean, she's had good books before.
01:19:51.000 I haven't read any of her other books, but her latest book, I think this is her latest book, this came out in 2016, it's In Trump We Trust, and I got it because I like Ann Coulter, you know, she's great and everything, and it's a New York Times bestseller, and it's about the Trump election, and she predicted it.
01:20:12.000 Okay, now the book retails, what does it say on here?
01:20:18.000 Okay, the book's $23.
01:20:21.000 It's, uh... 214 pages.
01:20:27.000 And that's including notes and everything.
01:20:31.000 Without the appendix.
01:20:34.000 Without the appendix.
01:20:35.000 Without the notes.
01:20:36.000 Without all the extras.
01:20:39.000 It is...
01:20:43.000 182 pages.
01:20:44.000 So they sell you a book that's 214 pages.
01:20:46.000 It's really 182 pages, if you don't count the appendix.
01:20:51.000 And the appendix is just quotes of people that didn't think Trump would win the election.
01:20:56.000 So that's really necessary, right?
01:20:58.000 This is the appendix, which is 40 pages.
01:21:00.000 It's 40 pages of geniuses, which in other words is quotes from people who didn't think Trump would win.
01:21:08.000 Really necessary.
01:21:09.000 That's really good filler.
01:21:11.000 And then it's pages of notes.
01:21:13.000 And the notes are like Twitter posts and everything, which I don't know how necessary that is.
01:21:20.000 And the rest of the book is filled up with stuff like this!
01:21:24.000 Sidebar... Sidebar immigration glossary.
01:21:28.000 And it's just like a funny... It's like, oh, this is a funny joke.
01:21:33.000 And the whole book is full of stuff like that.
01:21:40.000 You know, here's a book.
01:21:41.000 It's just a book with a list of citations of when Muslims celebrated 9-11.
01:21:45.000 Oh, Trump said Muslims celebrated 9-11.
01:21:48.000 The media said they didn't.
01:21:49.000 Well, here's a whole page of citations of when they did.
01:21:54.000 And, like, just throughout the book, there's these cheap tactics like this.
01:21:58.000 You know, here's another one.
01:22:00.000 Two pages of, like, CNN headlines.
01:22:02.000 You can see the big spaces and everything.
01:22:06.000 The whole book is full of stuff like that.
01:22:10.000 It's full of filler!
01:22:11.000 It's 180 pages, 215 with everything, 180 pages of actual content, and the content itself has all this filler.
01:22:20.000 You know, sub-headlines, big capital letters, these stupid little sidebars and graphical things.
01:22:29.000 We're good to go.
01:22:41.000 This is the political iteration of it, or the political genre of this.
01:22:45.000 But there are tons... this is... every New York Times bestseller is like this.
01:22:50.000 It's like... and it's not all as egregious as this.
01:22:52.000 This is like a political book that got rushed out during the election.
01:22:56.000 And, you know, this is the political variety of it.
01:22:59.000 But I don't even know if I have any other books on my shelf like this.
01:23:03.000 But it's that New York Times bestseller type where it's just like you wipe your ass with it.
01:23:08.000 Self-help shit or it's like whatever.
01:23:12.000 Stuff like that is stupid.
01:23:13.000 It's interwoven with like funny anecdotes and you know the book is told from the perspective of the author who's like writing about how he researched the book and it's like
01:23:23.000 Well, I knew I had to talk to this expert.
01:23:26.000 So, I woke up on a bright, sunny morning in New York, and I looked out the window, and it was a nice day, and I thought about this.
01:23:33.000 And then I got on a plane, and I headed to Toronto, and I talked to this expert, and this expert said this, and the expert said blah blah, and this is like chapters and chapters of filler bullshit like that.
01:23:44.000 You know?
01:23:45.000 And I can't stand that.
01:23:47.000 I'm trying to see if I have any books like this.
01:23:50.000 Oh yeah, here's another one.
01:23:52.000 I'll go pull out another one.
01:23:53.000 While I keep getting up, while I'm getting up, I might as well.
01:23:57.000 Here.
01:24:05.000 This one's under my stacks of shit.
01:24:08.000 So I'm gonna have to...
01:24:19.000 I just have like stacks and stacks of books.
01:24:22.000 I have like five stacks of books in my office like this high.
01:24:25.000 This was at the bottom of it so I just knocked them all down on accident.
01:24:29.000 Here's another one.
01:24:30.000 The Bitcoin Standard.
01:24:31.000 Here's another one.
01:24:33.000 Written just in time by the way.
01:24:36.000 For Bitcoin taking off.
01:24:37.000 Bitcoin goes up 10 million percent and this retarded economist says, I'm going to make money off of this.
01:24:45.000 I want to make a book about Bitcoin.
01:24:48.000 And when was it printed?
01:24:50.000 I want to know because I'm going to laugh.
01:24:55.000 Yeah, printed in 2018.
01:24:57.000 So, you know, some faggot says, Oh!
01:25:00.000 Bitcoin is blowing up and everybody thinks it's free money!
01:25:04.000 Time to write my Bitcoin book!
01:25:06.000 Time to write my Bitcoin book so that anytime somebody looks up, Bitcoin book!
01:25:11.000 Learn more about Bitcoin.
01:25:13.000 What is Bitcoin?
01:25:15.000 Oh, this comes up in the SEO, and I sell a $30 book, and you know some stupid yuppie, you know, living in the suburbs or in the city, living in downtown Chicago, is gonna, oh, what's this Bitcoin all about?
01:25:28.000 You know, some stupid-ass boomer.
01:25:30.000 What's this Bitcoin all about?
01:25:32.000 Bitcoin.
01:25:33.000 Google, you know, more about Bitcoin.
01:25:36.000 And this comes up on Amazon.
01:25:37.000 Oh, I'm gonna learn all about it.
01:25:40.000 And it's like,
01:25:42.000 Okay, he doesn't start talking about Bitcoin until chapter 8.
01:25:49.000 Until chapter 8!
01:25:50.000 The book is 285 pages, and they don't start talking about Bitcoin until page 167!
01:26:01.000 And the rest of the book is about the history of monetary theory.
01:26:06.000 Well, here's what money is.
01:26:08.000 Here's the history of monetary metal.
01:26:10.000 Here's the history of fiat money and blah blah blah.
01:26:13.000 And you know, I suppose that's like... But it's not really a book about Bitcoin.
01:26:18.000 This is not a book about Bitcoin.
01:26:20.000 This is not about the decentralized alternative to central banking.
01:26:24.000 This is a book of garbage.
01:26:25.000 This is a book of garbage filler that if you even read
01:26:29.000 Like a cursory amount about monetary theory, you're gonna know all this stuff.
01:26:34.000 You don't need to read about how, oh, they traded with shells at one point.
01:26:39.000 Here's a, you know, here's a one-chapter story, a one-chapter diversion about a tribe that used shells as money.
01:26:47.000 And see, this is how shells can be used as money.
01:26:50.000 Like, that's crap.
01:26:52.000 That's crap.
01:26:53.000 I don't need to waste my time reading this whole book.
01:26:56.000 This is... I will wipe my ass with this.
01:26:58.000 I can use this as toilet paper.
01:27:00.000 I don't need toilet paper from Target because I could just rip pages out of this book and wipe shit out of my ass with it because it is worthless.
01:27:09.000 Because it's not worth the pages it's written on.
01:27:12.000 Okay?
01:27:13.000 And I'm... That's just what it is.
01:27:15.000 Now, I could read this shit or I could read
01:27:19.000 What's a good book on my shelf?
01:27:20.000 I could read whatever.
01:27:24.000 Anything else.
01:27:25.000 I could read Sam Huntington where it's like 400 pages of dense information.
01:27:30.000 I could read an old book that might be 100 pages but it's densely packed.
01:27:36.000 There's nothing in there about
01:27:38.000 You know, I got on a plane and I flew here.
01:27:40.000 It's like one of those YouTube videos turned into a book.
01:27:44.000 It's like a documentary turned into a book.
01:27:46.000 And you know, in every documentary, they're like, with the crew, and they're like, oh, this is crazy.
01:27:53.000 Wow, that's really interesting.
01:27:55.000 You know what I mean?
01:27:56.000 Like, just give it to me straight.
01:27:58.000 Give me the information.
01:27:59.000 I have a high IQ.
01:28:00.000 I don't need to hear the rest.
01:28:04.000 so anyway so i hate anyway that's like the second or third super chat but i hate that shit so much i hate that you should not read any book that's on the new york times best-selling list don't read any of it you'd be better off just find the author and read their column for free online
01:28:23.000 And it's distilled, and it takes a minute, you know?
01:28:26.000 Read that, read old books.
01:28:27.000 And I know that's a meme, but it's true.
01:28:30.000 Read old books, read books by academics, read books that are not bestsellers, read books that cost $50, you know, not $30.
01:28:38.000 You read a book that costs $25-$30 in Barnes & Noble, that's crap.
01:28:44.000 Read a book that's like $100 because it's only being printed by, like, university libraries.
01:28:51.000 Anyway, so I just can't tell you how much I I just despise that And what I despise most about it is people think they're like smart.
01:29:00.000 I'm learned I'm gonna go, you know, you see this all the time on like airplanes people go in like the airport Bookstore and they're like I'm gonna learn, you know, you get some yuppie bitch who goes in I'm gonna get smart I'm gonna learn.
01:29:14.000 Oh, that's interesting
01:29:16.000 Look, look at this book on the display case.
01:29:19.000 $30 book about mnemonic devices?
01:29:22.000 No.
01:29:23.000 That's interesting.
01:29:24.000 I'm gonna thumb through this while I'm drinking my little wine cooler.
01:29:27.000 Like, you're an idiot.
01:29:28.000 This was written for dummies like you.
01:29:31.000 It was written, they fill up the trough for little piggies like you, oinking it up to come in and stick your big fat snout
01:29:42.000 Go roll around in the dirt.
01:29:43.000 Go roll around in the dirt, you dumb animal.
01:29:45.000 I hate that shit!
01:29:47.000 I hate it so much!
01:29:48.000 I don't know why I hate it, I just do.
01:29:50.000 Because it's just such a... It's such a lie.
01:29:55.000 It is.
01:29:56.000 That's why I think reading is basically a meme.
01:29:58.000 I really am a big believer.
01:30:00.000 You want to read books, read old books.
01:30:02.000 And, um... You know.
01:30:06.000 Or don't read at all.
01:30:07.000 Frankly, most people don't really need to read that much, honestly.
01:30:10.000 If you're going to be a streamer, if you're going to be a public person, then read.
01:30:14.000 If you're curious and you want to build your brain, then read.
01:30:17.000 But, you know, people that think, I'm going to become smarter, I'm going to learn so much.
01:30:22.000 Not going to happen.
01:30:25.000 Anyway, let's see.
01:30:27.000 Where was I?
01:30:28.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini Dallas Griper.
01:30:30.000 Yeah, this kind of stuff.
01:30:32.000 And Ann Coulter, you know, she's written some good books in the past.
01:30:35.000 I haven't read anything else by her, but I'm told her older books were better.
01:30:40.000 Try harder.
01:30:41.000 You owe me my money back, Ann.
01:30:43.000 I need my $23 back for this.
01:30:46.000 And don't read this book.
01:30:47.000 This is trash.
01:30:49.000 Read something good.
01:30:51.000 What else do I got on the floor there?
01:30:55.000 Let me see if I can, uh... I don't know.
01:30:58.000 I don't really want to spend any more time on this, but... Read anything else.
01:31:06.000 Whatever.
01:31:07.000 Whatever!
01:31:09.000 That's my New York Times rant.
01:31:11.000 I hate it.
01:31:13.000 You know, because I knew a lot of people in high school, like teachers, that were like this.
01:31:16.000 Teachers reading these books.
01:31:18.000 I can imagine some guy who's like got a college degree, 35, professional, and he's got a little library in his living room, and his whole living room is these glossy hardcover books from Barnes & Noble.
01:31:31.000 Malcolm Gladwell!
01:31:33.000 Noam Chomsky!
01:31:36.000 What's that guy's name?
01:31:39.000 Nicholas Taleb, right?
01:31:41.000 Is that the guy's name?
01:31:43.000 He wrote the foreword to this book.
01:31:45.000 Yeah, Nicholas Taleb and... Oh, I'm a big brain!
01:31:49.000 I'm a genius!
01:31:50.000 I'm reading TED Talk experts!
01:31:51.000 I'm in Mensa!
01:31:53.000 I'm in Mensa!
01:31:54.000 I'm in Mensa and I read the New York Times bestsellers!
01:31:57.000 I'm a genius!
01:31:58.000 I'm a certified genius trademark!
01:32:02.000 Yeah, okay.
01:32:03.000 You're gonna get the barcode tattooed on your forehead, you dumbass, you know?
01:32:07.000 You're gonna get a barcode tattooed on your forehead.
01:32:10.000 Anyway, um, Protestant, GROIPERS is all I need.
01:32:14.000 I just read that.
01:32:15.000 Modern Monarchist says, I forgot, how did the Owen Benjamin feud start?
01:32:20.000 Somebody super chatted and said, hey, you should do a stream with Owen Benjamin sometime.
01:32:25.000 And I said, what did I say?
01:32:27.000 I said, like, I already did a stream with him.
01:32:31.000 No, no, somebody said, somebody super chatted and said, you and Owen agree on everything.
01:32:39.000 And I replied and said, well, I don't know if we agree on everything.
01:32:43.000 I said, but, you know, we agree on a lot and whatever.
01:32:47.000 And he went off on me for that.
01:32:49.000 Then the next day he started, like, going off on me and I said, like, oh, well, that was weird.
01:32:55.000 Maybe he took it the wrong way.
01:32:56.000 I'm not going to respond, but I think maybe he misunderstood what I meant.
01:33:01.000 I played one of them.
01:33:24.000 It was the one where you fight in Alaska.
01:33:27.000 Operation Anchorage, I think it was, but I didn't play any others.
01:33:31.000 That one was okay.
01:33:32.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:33:34.000 Q Boyd says, who wins sexual economy other than e-girls?
01:33:39.000 Chad's.
01:33:40.000 Chad's and e-girls.
01:33:42.000 Well, Chad's and Stacey's.
01:33:44.000 Stacey's and Chad's.
01:33:46.000 That's who wins in the polyamorous sexual marketplace.
01:33:53.000 Simps.
01:33:54.000 Simps win too, frankly.
01:33:55.000 It's e-girls, it's simps.
01:33:57.000 Because the two kinds of men that appeal to women in this time are your, like, top 1% of men who are tall and muscular and rich and, you know, handsome and all that.
01:34:11.000 That's your top 1%.
01:34:13.000 And that's who's just gonna have their pick of the litter, right?
01:34:15.000 I mean, they're just gonna have free reign and girls are just gonna give it out.
01:34:19.000 We're good to go!
01:34:35.000 And I mean, are they really winning is the question, but ultimately they will then inherit all these roasties.
01:34:41.000 When they're done riding the carousel, they will settle down with a nice, compliant, weak man who has a weak hairline and a weak jawline and, you know, bug eyes.
01:34:53.000 So in a sense, in a sense, they're winning, I guess.
01:34:57.000 They're kind of playing the game.
01:34:59.000 They're playing the ecosystem.
01:35:00.000 They're like a, you know, a parasite or something.
01:35:05.000 There's sort of like a vulture after the lion gets the kill then the vulture swoops in and picks off the remains So these are really the if there are winners, I guess it would be Chad it would be the simp beta orbiter type and And of course all women all women just I mean they have free reign they get to choose and ultimately in this polyamorous system
01:35:31.000 Or polyamory.
01:35:32.000 I don't mean polyamory.
01:35:34.000 Hypergamy, excuse me.
01:35:35.000 Hypergamy is what I mean.
01:35:37.000 In a hypergamous society, women are actually the ones in control.
01:35:43.000 It's really a matriarchal society.
01:35:47.000 Or a gynocratic, right?
01:35:50.000 Not mothers, it's women.
01:35:51.000 So it's a gynocratic system where because social status and social hierarchy is determined by sex,
01:35:59.000 Women are the ones that get to decide who has sexual value, who has sexual appeal.
01:36:05.000 And women get, unless you're raping them, women give consent for sex, right?
01:36:10.000 Women are the ones that give, they're the gatekeepers of sex, and therefore, they're the gatekeepers of sexual status.
01:36:18.000 We're good to go!
01:36:48.000 We're good to go.
01:37:02.000 We're good to go!
01:37:27.000 We're like total degenerates that will attract women.
01:37:29.000 You know, guys with lots of tattoos, or guys that are roided up, guys that are totally on steroids, guys that are on drugs, guys that are deadbeats.
01:37:39.000 You know all male feminists, right?
01:37:41.000 you're gonna have a lot of instances of people that are kind of hacking the system because They're appealing to women's crazed brains and their social status among men proceeds from their sexual status among women and So it's it's inverted.
01:37:56.000 It's it's totally reverse how it should be it should be that your sexual status proceeds from your social status and
01:38:02.000 We're good to go!
01:38:24.000 And it's like, you know, you're gross.
01:38:27.000 It's only in these times when women are hopped up on birth control and have all the power and all the control do you get some of these men that have high status that are total creeps, right, or total weirdos.
01:38:38.000 So, anyway.
01:38:40.000 American Groper says, do you foresee a resource war occurring in East Asia?
01:38:45.000 Uh, no.
01:38:46.000 Holy Servants says, how do you think the town whore is holding up with these social distancing measures right now?
01:38:51.000 Ha ha ha, thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:38:54.000 Remember that joke you made earlier?
01:38:56.000 I'm gonna riff on that.
01:38:57.000 Dude, funny, funny, good joke, man.
01:39:00.000 We're gonna tag team the audience with comedy.
01:39:08.000 But no, there is no such thing as a town whore.
01:39:12.000 Every woman these days virtually is a whore, and they're not holding up well.
01:39:18.000 You know, that's the thing.
01:39:19.000 It's actually, and that's why I've been loving the quarantine.
01:39:22.000 You know, a lot of people have been saying, oh, you know, government tyranny.
01:39:26.000 Maybe the reason I haven't been so averse to the government shutdown of the society is because I am kind of enjoying
01:39:37.000 The fact that everybody is suffering.
01:39:39.000 Not economically, not in terms of families, but in a specific way.
01:39:44.000 The way in which women and homosexuals are suffering.
01:39:47.000 Because women, and gay people too, they require a constant supply of sex with strangers.
01:39:55.000 And the coronavirus is destroying them.
01:39:57.000 You know, there's memes about this going around of women that are like melting down because they can't go out and have sex with strange men.
01:40:05.000 And to me, that is very funny, that is very satisfying to see gay people too.
01:40:13.000 But the thing about gay people is they're doing it anyway, because they're already bugged.
01:40:18.000 They've already got a bug.
01:40:20.000 In some instances, I'm sure they're probably chasing the coronavirus itself, right?
01:40:26.000 They're already bug-chased with AIDS.
01:40:28.000 And I'm sure a lot of them are doing it with coronavirus.
01:40:31.000 So, you know, in that way, they're just kind of the sickest of them all.
01:40:36.000 They're still going out there, but unfazed, undeterred, but women, but your women are out there and they are dying inside because they're saying, I'm not having sex with strangers.
01:40:49.000 And they're melting down from it.
01:40:51.000 So they're not holding up.
01:40:53.000 I'm sure it is.
01:40:53.000 Thanks for the Ninja Genie.
01:41:11.000 Yep, NJ conservative says holy week guinea missed last night.
01:41:16.000 Well, thanks, buddy NJ conservatives is happy.
01:41:19.000 Good Friday was on path back when I started but embraced my Catholicism because of you Well good to hear it Thanks.
01:41:26.000 Glad you are back on the right track
01:41:29.000 Well, it sounds like you've embraced it.
01:41:31.000 So that's good to hear.
01:41:32.000 Happy Good Friday to you as well.
01:41:33.000 Happy Easter.
01:41:34.000 Thanks for all the Ninja Genies this week.
01:41:36.000 I appreciate it.
01:41:38.000 Ethel says, Hey Nick, what are your thoughts on SpaceX and this multi-planetary idea?
01:41:43.000 I think it's pretty weird.
01:41:46.000 Thanks for the genie.
01:41:48.000 Um, multi-planetary idea to me seems impractical.
01:41:53.000 I think it's worth pursuing, but I don't know that it is going to be efficacious.
01:42:00.000 Is that a word?
01:42:01.000 I don't think that it will be practical, you know, and they're saying that, well, the technology will improve and we're going to colonize Mars and terraform Mars and I don't know.
01:42:12.000 It just seems to me to be so impractical because the planets are so far away from us.
01:42:19.000 And they're so inhospitable to human life, particularly Mars.
01:42:23.000 That's one they're looking at.
01:42:24.000 It just doesn't seem to me to be practical that there will ever be a sustainable presence of human beings on Mars for any purpose, economic or long-term habitation.
01:42:38.000 It seems like it's worth pursuing.
01:42:40.000 There will definitely be benefits of being interplanetary.
01:42:43.000 You know, if something happens on Earth, then we'd still have another planet.
01:42:48.000 So, I think that it's worth pursuing for that reason.
01:42:51.000 The benefits would be priceless.
01:42:54.000 I mean, there would be, obviously, if you're talking about the survival of the human race, I think that that is something that would necessarily have to be looked into.
01:43:04.000 But that being said I think like a lot of projects we will find another way We will find maybe different options because thought of like interplanetary colonization it just and maybe that's because it's like the 21st century and we're not ready yet for that but That just seems like so outside the bounds of what is possible at least now that I don't see that ever happening We can barely figure it out here
01:43:30.000 We're good to go!
01:43:46.000 Yeah, we're good to go.
01:44:09.000 Uh, let's see.
01:44:10.000 Justin KG says, great stream with Jaden yesterday.
01:44:12.000 Did you do celebration stream for passing PewDiePie yet?
01:44:16.000 No, that's right.
01:44:17.000 I don't think I did.
01:44:18.000 Did I?
01:44:18.000 I don't know if I ever did.
01:44:20.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:44:24.000 When did I pass PewDiePie?
01:44:25.000 Was that this week or last week?
01:44:27.000 I don't even remember.
01:44:28.000 I think it was last week.
01:44:31.000 I don't even remember.
01:44:32.000 I think it was last week, right?
01:44:33.000 I said I would celebrate.
01:44:35.000 But, um...
01:44:37.000 I just never did.
01:44:38.000 I don't know, maybe I should celebrate.
01:44:41.000 I guess I must have just forgot last week.
01:44:44.000 Yeah, maybe we'll do a big celebration stream.
01:44:46.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:44:47.000 Thanks for reminding me.
01:44:48.000 I'll put that in my notes, maybe.
01:44:50.000 Yeah, it was a good stream with Jaden.
01:44:52.000 Me and him just keep fighting, though.
01:44:54.000 We bicker.
01:44:54.000 We're like, you know, we're like siblings or something.
01:44:58.000 I don't know what it is.
01:44:59.000 It's a sign, though.
01:45:00.000 You know, whenever I stream with Jaden, it's so funny because we end up playing Call of Duty,
01:45:05.000 And we legitimately get mad.
01:45:06.000 I don't know if he gets mad.
01:45:08.000 He says he's playing it up.
01:45:09.000 But I legitimately get mad.
01:45:11.000 I legitimately get mad at him.
01:45:13.000 I get frustrated with him.
01:45:14.000 Because we'll be playing squads in Call of Duty.
01:45:18.000 And I don't want to rehash the argument here in a one-sided fashion.
01:45:23.000 We're good to go?
01:45:40.000 To me, what that says is that there is a closeness.
01:45:46.000 It's actually a good thing.
01:45:47.000 When you fight with somebody, that shows that there is resilience to the relationship.
01:45:55.000 You know, joke with somebody.
01:45:57.000 If you can cross the line with somebody and come back from it, then that shows that you have a good rapport, right?
01:46:04.000 If you are always fighting with somebody, or if you're afraid to fight with somebody, if you're afraid to cross the line, if you're sort of like, uh, if it's awkward, you know what I'm saying?
01:46:16.000 Then, um, then that shows that you're not actually that good of friends, so.
01:46:21.000 So it's actually a good thing.
01:46:22.000 A lot of people say, oh, you and Jaden fight so much, but it's actually a good thing.
01:46:26.000 It shows that there's actually a good friendship there, right?
01:46:31.000 But we do bicker a lot.
01:46:33.000 It is a source of contention.
01:46:35.000 It is a major source of frustration.
01:46:41.000 I don't know about him.
01:46:41.000 He always tells me he's just playing it up.
01:46:43.000 I don't think that's true.
01:46:44.000 He always says, I'm just playing it up.
01:46:46.000 I don't think you are.
01:46:47.000 I think you're pissed off.
01:46:49.000 I'm pissed off, and I maybe know you're pissed off because I'm pissed off.
01:46:54.000 But, uh, anyway.
01:46:56.000 Anyway.
01:46:58.000 We're, we're Zack and Cody, right?
01:47:00.000 Uh, Drew Bruce is big news in Australia.
01:47:03.000 Pell acquitted by high court.
01:47:04.000 Yeah, I heard about that.
01:47:06.000 I'm not like a constitutional scholar.
01:47:08.000 I don't really think too much about the Constitution.
01:47:11.000 I would say that
01:47:34.000 The problem with the... it's not so much that there are problems with the Constitution so much as our country has basically outgrown the Constitution in the sense that the country that the founders were writing the Constitution for and the world that they were writing it in were so different than where we are now.
01:47:53.000 The world is different.
01:47:54.000 The country is different.
01:47:55.000 This is a country of 350 million people spanning coast to coast.
01:48:00.000 We're the number one country in the world.
01:48:03.000 Uh, colonialism has ended.
01:48:06.000 We have full integration with the world.
01:48:09.000 Technology is advanced.
01:48:11.000 It's a completely different circumstance than when they were writing it.
01:48:14.000 And you could say, well, it's timeless, timeless principles.
01:48:18.000 And in some sense, that's true.
01:48:19.000 But in a lot of ways, it's also very flawed because they did not obviously anticipate mass immigration.
01:48:25.000 They did not anticipate, you know, a time when Europe was not in control of the world.
01:48:31.000 Think about that.
01:48:32.000 The Constitution was ratified in 1789.
01:48:37.000 And so, for fully a quarter of a millennium, Europe ruled the world, right?
01:48:45.000 And for most of recorded history, up until that point, Europe was the leader of the world, save for a few other major civilizations like China and Persia, right, or the Arabs, or, you know, a few others.
01:49:03.000 We're good to go.
01:49:19.000 Of course, America was founded at a time when Europe ruled the world during the Pax Britannica, when the British Empire in particular, but other empires ruled the world, the colonialism, and it wasn't until the middle of the last century that that really ended.
01:49:33.000 It wasn't until the middle of the last century that you had the real rise of the third world, of these former colonial holdings or, you know, you see China and you see independence in Africa and
01:49:46.000 Independence has been established in South America for a long time, but you get the point.
01:49:51.000 So, globally was a very different picture.
01:49:53.000 For obvious reasons, domestically was very different.
01:49:57.000 And so the Constitution might have been good for a time, you know, for the late 18th century America, but it definitely does not take into consideration a lot of problems today with technology, with populations, and with the private sector, even with banking, you know.
01:50:17.000 So there are a lot of unforeseen problems inherent in it.
01:50:21.000 Which, um, and I can't give you a ton of specifics because I'm not like a constitutional scholar, but there are a lot of problems in there.
01:50:28.000 But, um, so I would say that that's the general issue.
01:50:32.000 It's really more about the context.
01:50:35.000 But, um, anyway.
01:50:37.000 Question for Nick says, like, for example, the First Amendment.
01:50:39.000 If I could give an example off the top of my head, because I would feel remiss if I didn't give you at least one example.
01:50:45.000 The First Amendment.
01:50:46.000 First Amendment applies to government only, but not the private sector.
01:50:50.000 So, Twitter can ban you, but that doesn't violate the First Amendment.
01:50:55.000 How does the Constitution protect free speech?
01:50:58.000 And people will say, well, the government is the biggest threat and protects free speech from the government, but in practice, what's the difference?
01:51:06.000 The Twitter and all these other private entities constitute monopolies.
01:51:10.000 They constitute, in essence, the public sector or the public square.
01:51:15.000 Even though they're private, they constitute the public square.
01:51:18.000 And could the founders conceive of the public square being owned by a private entity?
01:51:22.000 I don't think so.
01:51:24.000 Because the public square used to be the public commons.
01:51:26.000 You know, that would be the state building or a public park, right?
01:51:30.000 Or a street corner or something like that.
01:51:34.000 And maybe it might be in private hands, but even then it would be subject to the First Amendment, you know, outside.
01:51:41.000 But that doesn't exist in the same way that it did all that time ago.
01:51:45.000 So that would be one area.
01:51:49.000 And also with federalism.
01:51:51.000 Does federalism really work when you're talking about a nation as complicated and complex as it is now?
01:51:57.000 You know, even things like interstate commerce.
01:52:00.000 I mean, there's a lot of problems even inherent in this idea of federalism.
01:52:05.000 Immigration is another area.
01:52:07.000 Is that a state issue?
01:52:08.000 Is that a federal government issue?
01:52:09.000 And who gets control of immigration?
01:52:11.000 The Congress or the executive?
01:52:13.000 There's a lot of debate about this today.
01:52:16.000 Obviously, there's nothing in the Constitution about demographics, which is a problem, or citizenship.
01:52:21.000 You know, it should be in the Constitution some, you know, something about citizenship, no birthright citizenship, something like that.
01:52:27.000 The 13th Amendment is very flawed in that way.
01:52:30.000 I guess the 13th Amendment was later on, but still a part of the Constitution.
01:52:35.000 So, 19th Amendment is another one.
01:52:38.000 Question for Nick's is, my Chinese wife has C19.
01:52:41.000 Her name is Sheet.
01:52:44.000 Okay, yeah, that's really funny.
01:52:46.000 NJ Conservative says, Judas sold out Christ for silver.
01:52:49.000 Now America being sold out by similar forces.
01:52:52.000 America first.
01:52:53.000 Wow, very novel take.
01:52:54.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:52:55.000 Very true.
01:52:57.000 Big Globe says, listening to CNN at work sucks.
01:52:59.000 Wish I could listen to America first.
01:53:02.000 Yeah, me too.
01:53:03.000 NJ Conservative says, hope your family has a blessed Easter.
01:53:06.000 Yes, you too.
01:53:07.000 Happy Easter.
01:53:08.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:53:10.000 T. James says, do another McDonald's and Baskin-Robbins periscope.
01:53:15.000 No.
01:53:16.000 Sheeny says, long time no see big guy.
01:53:19.000 I got my job back and a promotion too.
01:53:21.000 Maybe this pandemic ain't half bad.
01:53:23.000 Well, congratulations on the promotion.
01:53:25.000 Good to hear from you again.
01:53:27.000 Yeah, it's been a while.
01:53:28.000 Congrats on the promotion, on the job.
01:53:31.000 Glad to hear you're doing better.
01:53:32.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:53:34.000 It's true, maybe it isn't half bad after all.
01:53:38.000 Maybe he'll get a $1,200 check too, right?
01:53:39.000 Probably an alcoholic.
01:53:40.000 Okay, thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:53:42.000 Is that so?
01:53:42.000 Is it all about the hands?
01:54:03.000 I would like to see somebody... I've never seen anybody do an impression of me deliberately.
01:54:08.000 People might, you know, unconsciously imitate my inflection or my hand motions, but I don't think I've ever seen anybody do a really good Nick Fuentes impression.
01:54:19.000 I don't think I've ever seen anybody even try.
01:54:21.000 And if they do try, do it really well.
01:54:24.000 I know Patrick did one, but it wasn't... I don't know if he was really trying that hard.
01:54:28.000 He was trying to just be funny.
01:54:31.000 But I'd like to see that.
01:54:33.000 I gotta get more famous so that somebody will do it, so that they'll be a Nick Fuentes impersonator.
01:54:40.000 Well, that's not true.
01:54:41.000 There was one person who used to be on the Daily Brat who did an okay impression, and I didn't like it.
01:54:48.000 I didn't like it.
01:54:48.000 I don't like how my voice sounds.
01:54:50.000 You know how that goes.
01:54:51.000 You don't like to hear yourself back to yourself.
01:54:54.000 So I didn't like his impression, even though it was accurate.
01:54:58.000 AquariumGroper says, shout out to my good friend Tomascovich.
01:55:02.000 He's watching America First for the first time tonight.
01:55:04.000 Well, thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:55:06.000 Yeah, shout out to him.
01:55:08.000 Hope he's liking what he sees.
01:55:10.000 I don't know.
01:55:10.000 I wasn't really feeling it tonight.
01:55:12.000 I don't really feel like tonight was a knockout stellar show.
01:55:15.000 Maybe come back next week.
01:55:17.000 I'm tired.
01:55:18.000 It's Friday.
01:55:18.000 I've had enough, you know.
01:55:22.000 I've had enough of this coronavirus news for the week, so I'll come back next week when I'm in a little bit more, when I'm a bit more fresh.

01:58:05.000 Because they suck.
01:58:06.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
01:58:08.000 Pennsylvania Groyper says, what were your Easter family traditions growing up?
01:58:13.000 Well, we went to Mass and then, well, usually, well, what was the order?
01:58:19.000 I think we woke up and we would do Easter baskets.
01:58:24.000 The Easter bunny would come and we'd do our Easter baskets.
01:58:28.000 And then we go to church.
01:58:42.000 Usually it was a lot of springtime type stuff like I remember one year I got like a wiffle ball we were playing with that you know or a frisbee you know some kind of outdoor thing.
01:58:53.000 We would do an Easter egg hunt usually at my grandma's house or at my house or we participate in one in the community I think we would do that.
01:59:04.000 We're good to go!
01:59:26.000 You get a big break in school, and it's a big build-up.
01:59:30.000 There's the music, and the food, and the movies, and it's, you know, a big cultural moment for a long time.
01:59:36.000 Plus, it's New Year's Eve, and it's, right?
01:59:41.000 But Easter, it's just like, we go to the mall, sit on the Easter Bunny's lap, you know, some of that.
01:59:46.000 We'd paint eggs.
01:59:47.000 I remember we would do that.
01:59:48.000 We would paint eggs.
01:59:51.000 That was, that was one, that was always a good time.
01:59:54.000 We're good to go.
02:00:16.000 Alan says, in Sweden, 70% of Corona deaths are Somali and Syrian.

02:00:27.000 Embro says, Apple wouldn't allow the CIA to get data from a terrorist phone a while back.
02:00:32.000 Remember that?
02:00:33.000 I do remember that.
02:00:34.000 Thanks for the Nijigini.
02:00:35.000 But they're just going to track all of our data?
02:00:37.000 Okay.
02:00:38.000 Yeah, I remember they did that.
02:00:40.000 They wouldn't open up
02:00:41.000 The locked phone or whatever for the FBI.
02:00:45.000 Yeah, curious how that works.
02:00:47.000 Boo Radley says, check out Ed Snowden's book, Permanent Record.
02:00:50.000 Yeah, sounds awesome.
02:00:52.000 It's about the current state of mass surveillance.
02:00:56.000 Base Zoomer says, the contact tracing tech uses Bluetooth low-energy.
02:01:00.000 Locationing is done via two plus phones in proximity.
02:01:03.000 Thank you, LabCode.
02:01:04.000 Thanks for the Nijigini.
02:01:06.000 OpticsRespector says, would you do the antibody test?
02:01:09.000 Probably not.
02:01:11.000 Simp into pimpin says I got turned full griper by a girl.
02:01:15.000 What do I do?
02:01:15.000 I don't know what that means Patrick Casey says die economy die stupid economy Patrick's being real funny tonight Patrick's drinking the funny juice.
02:01:27.000 I
02:01:28.000 Very true.
02:01:30.000 Yeah, I love all the people out there posting that screenshot today from CNBC where it's like, best stock market since 1938, 16 million unemployed, and they're like, wow, we're living in a society.
02:01:42.000 Wow, capitalism must really be broken if the stock market could have the best days since 1938, but 16 million unemployed, and it's like, are you a baby?
02:01:53.000 Are you like an idiot?
02:01:54.000 Do you not know how the economy works?
02:01:58.000 Take a look at the stock market over a 3 month period.
02:02:16.000 We're good to go!
02:02:35.000 It starts with a C. At the bottom of the screen says, 16 million unemployed in three weeks.
02:02:42.000 And people are saying, like, oh, that shows how broken capitalism is.
02:02:46.000 See?
02:02:47.000 Because Wall Street is doing great and celebrating, but people are unemployed.
02:02:52.000 Now take a look at the stock market over the last three months.
02:02:55.000 When they say best days since 1938, do you know what that means?
02:02:59.000 It means that the stock market went up by a bigger point number or a bigger percentage than any other day since 1938.
02:03:06.000 But this happens every time you have a depression or a recession.
02:03:11.000 The stock market fluctuates.
02:03:13.000 And when the stock market goes down by 35% and then it goes up by a high percentage, that doesn't mean that Wall Street had a really, really good day.
02:03:22.000 That doesn't mean that, oh, the billionaires and Wall Street are doing amazing.
02:03:26.000 I mean, they're always doing amazing, but you know what I'm saying.
02:03:29.000 If you know how to read that information, you understand what that means.
02:03:33.000 The stock market might rally from a 35% discount based on good information and based on stimulus from the Federal Reserve, based on expectations they're trying to price into the economy, what the damage is going to be, while 16 million people are unemployed.
02:03:50.000 That is the point of speculation and of investing and all of this, is you're looking towards the long term.
02:03:56.000 When the economy rallies after a big dip, it rallies based on the expectation that the economy will improve later.
02:04:04.000 The stock market crashed weeks ago, anticipating the unemployment numbers now.
02:04:10.000 And maybe it didn't anticipate as high as it would be or perfectly, but the stock market crashed back in the beginning of March.
02:04:18.000 Or the middle of March.
02:04:19.000 You know, whenever they shut down the country or when it started to get really bad, the stock market crashed and ultimately it bottomed out at 35% below the previous high.
02:04:30.000 It wiped out four years of gains based on the expectation that you would see mass unemployment and a big contraction in the GDP.
02:04:40.000 Now that you're getting good headlines and they're talking about opening up,
02:04:44.000 We're good to go!
02:05:03.000 We're good to go.
02:05:19.000 I don't know if they're kids or they're college kids or
02:05:48.000 People that just don't, they don't invest or whatever, but they're like, oh, look, this, this screenshot says it all.
02:05:56.000 Stock market's up, but unemployment is high.
02:05:59.000 Corporations are, you know, some corporations are doing better than others, but the economy is not doing well.
02:06:05.000 Okay?
02:06:06.000 The economy is not doing well for everybody.
02:06:07.000 This is affecting everybody.
02:06:09.000 And obviously billionaires are going to be fine, and your major, major multinational corporations are not going out of business anytime soon, but
02:06:18.000 You know, it's just a misinterpretation of this information.
02:06:21.000 We could take a look at the macroeconomic picture and say, is Walmart and Amazon, are they going to be big winners from this?
02:06:28.000 Certainly.
02:06:28.000 But are they winning simply because of mass unemployment?
02:06:32.000 You know, are they really saying, oh, unemployment is a good thing.
02:06:36.000 I love unemployment.
02:06:37.000 No, not necessarily.
02:06:39.000 Now, might this present an opportunity?
02:06:41.000 Might they be better off in the future?
02:06:43.000 You know, that is a conversation that we could have, but
02:06:45.000 They take that screenshot and they're like, wow, Wall Street having a good day when unemployment is high?
02:06:50.000 It's like, well you're just misinterpreting that information, clearly.
02:06:54.000 They're rallying on the expectation that unemployment will eventually get low again.
02:06:58.000 That's why that's happening.
02:07:00.000 It's also, I will say, it's also funny
02:07:29.000 That all the same people that were cheering on the economic collapse are the same ones that are going to pretend to care about the unemployed, right?
02:07:38.000 All the people who two weeks ago were saying, oh the economy crashed and that's a good thing, you know, take that GDP, take that boomers.
02:07:50.000 Oh, people are unemployed?
02:07:51.000 Good, maybe the collapse will happen.
02:07:54.000 All the people that were saying, oh, good, you know, the economy's getting worse, they're all now going to pretend to care and say, see?
02:08:02.000 Look at how out of touch Wall Street is.
02:08:03.000 See?
02:08:04.000 Oh, the economy's going up.
02:08:07.000 When unemployment is high?
02:08:09.000 And so clearly these people just have no consistent view of the economy.
02:08:13.000 There is no coherent, thorough understanding happening.
02:08:17.000 It's just a lot of memes.
02:08:19.000 That's what it is.
02:08:20.000 It's a meme understanding of the economy.
02:08:22.000 Meme opinion.
02:08:25.000 Mark Tose says, one prick equals one ship.
02:08:28.000 Yeah, I don't know if that's how they're gonna do the chip, but I'm not taking any chances.
02:08:33.000 Uh, Dak says, in two weeks it'll be a bloodbath.
02:08:36.000 Yeah, okay, lab coat.
02:08:37.000 Yeah, right.
02:08:39.000 Portland Groyper says, remember the good old days when we talked about Israel?
02:08:43.000 Seems so long ago.
02:08:44.000 Happy Easter, Nick.
02:08:45.000 Yeah, I remember.
02:08:46.000 Thanks for the Nijigini.
02:08:47.000 Happy Easter.
02:08:49.000 Fuggs, it's a total 180 since last night.
02:08:52.000 What changed your mind?
02:08:53.000 It's not a 180.
02:08:54.000 It's not a 180 at all.
02:08:55.000 I told you.
02:08:58.000 We're talking about hypotheticals, number one.
02:09:01.000 We're talking about trajectories.
02:09:03.000 And it's not a 180.
02:09:04.000 I've always been suspicious of this.
02:09:06.000 And don't believe me, go back and watch my show in January when I said, they're lying about the virus.
02:09:12.000 They're lying about where it came from.
02:09:14.000 China's lying.
02:09:15.000 The World Health Organization is lying.
02:09:17.000 And I've been consistent throughout.
02:09:19.000 I said, you don't have enough data.
02:09:21.000 And so when you don't have enough data, based on what you see, that's how you have to act.
02:09:26.000 You cannot go back in time, you know?
02:09:29.000 In other words, you don't have the benefit of retrospect in the middle of March.
02:09:33.000 In the middle of March, we looked at the projections, and we looked at Italy, and we looked at the death rate, and it was unacceptable, the losses that we might have faced, right?
02:09:43.000 And I've never been, you know...
02:09:47.000 I've never been, I've never shied away from making statements like that based on available information.
02:09:53.000 The available information back then showed a much, much higher death rate and the statistical projections were much worse.
02:10:00.000 And they had a higher death rate because they didn't account for a lot of asymptomatic people and so on.
02:10:04.000 And so based on that information, I think the lockdown was justified and so on.
02:10:09.000 But what I'm saying tonight is if these projected numbers turn out way lower and way lower once you're factoring in the social distancing and if the death rate is way lower and if the solution that they're proposing increasingly is surveillance and shipping and identification then retroactively that changes how we look at the coronavirus.
02:10:32.000 So it's not it's not really even a 180.
02:10:35.000 It's like I'm looking at where things are headed
02:10:38.000 And I'm saying, I'm shifting a little bit in my assessment of the situation.
02:10:45.000 Because what I said yesterday is, it's not comparable to the flu.
02:10:48.000 And I still believe that, by the way.
02:10:50.000 Because the death rate is still high, and the death rate will still be high if you're looking at a 6 week period, right?
02:10:56.000 It's still, what is it, a 6 to 8 week period that you're talking about 60,000 deaths.
02:11:01.000 Which compared to, you know, flu season is about the same, but the flu does 60,000 in a year compared to in eight weeks.
02:11:09.000 And moreover, that's with social distancing and so on, right?
02:11:12.000 And they're talking about also the numbers might shoot back up if we reopen.
02:11:18.000 So we're not out of the woods yet.
02:11:20.000 And I never said that, oh, I completely changed my mind.
02:11:22.000 Now it's fake.
02:11:24.000 I don't think so.
02:11:47.000 It's an evolving understanding and we're talking about hypothetically what happens if it turns out this way.
02:11:54.000 What happens if we all go back to work and the death rate remains low?
02:11:59.000 What happens if we go back to work and the death rate is 0.3%?
02:12:02.000 Well, then we could be skeptical about the whole thing.
02:12:09.000 You know, and things like that.
02:12:10.000 So, it's not a 180, and it's not that anything's changing my mind, it's just that the more that we look at the information as it comes in, what changed your mind?
02:12:19.000 Well, our understanding of the situation evolves as we get more information.
02:12:24.000 And we didn't have this information two weeks ago.
02:12:26.000 They didn't talk about an immunity passport two weeks ago.
02:12:29.000 That wasn't being talked about at the governmental level in the United States two weeks ago.
02:12:34.000 They weren't talking about mass surveillance for contact tracing two weeks ago.
02:12:38.000 Hospitalization was not drastically under what was projected two weeks ago, right?
02:12:44.000 The death rate was not as low as it was two weeks ago.
02:12:46.000 Two weeks ago, they said a quarter of a million was the upper bound and 100,000 was the lower bound.
02:12:53.000 Two weeks ago.
02:12:54.000 This week, they said 60,000.
02:12:55.000 So...
02:12:57.000 You know that's that much is a given that your situation your understanding evolves as a situation does but I don't think it's a 180.
02:13:06.000 I still basically believe the lockdown was and is necessary it'll still you know what I'm saying is true it'll still be with us for two years or you know longer than that until we develop an immunity as a society naturally or with a vaccine you're going to be dealing with bouts of coronavirus outbreaks and it'll keep coming back that is still true.
02:13:27.000 Will it be more deadly or drastically more deadly than the flu or another virus?
02:13:32.000 Well, now that's in doubt.
02:13:34.000 Now that remains to be seen.
02:13:35.000 And we'll have to see what the curves look like in Italy and in Europe and in New York.
02:13:40.000 But it's looking like the death rate is trending down.
02:13:42.000 Now, the death rate in the United States is still about 3%.
02:13:47.000 We're good to go!
02:14:04.000 The rate at which new confirmed cases arise, including asymptomatic carriers and everything, and the death rate stays the same, then, you know, it'll still be a big problem.
02:14:16.000 But if you have the confirmed case number increasing and it decouples from the death rate, and the death rate goes down, or number of deaths, the death rate goes down as a percentage,
02:14:27.000 Then it's not going to be as bad, obviously.
02:14:29.000 Then we're talking about something like another flu or another more conventional virus.
02:14:34.000 Maybe something marginally more deadly than the flu.
02:14:38.000 Something like SARS or something like, you know, previous viruses that have come out of China.
02:14:43.000 So all I'm saying is that that seems like it could be a possibility now.
02:14:48.000 And what are we going to do then?
02:14:49.000 So, no.
02:14:51.000 It's not a 180.
02:14:52.000 Commando Chicken says, Nick, you wear skinny jeans?
02:14:55.000 I'm not wearing skinny jeans.
02:14:57.000 Peace King says, Globalist showing their hands?
02:15:00.000 Possibly.
02:15:01.000 They're always showing their hand.
02:15:03.000 Allen says, bring in guests?
02:15:04.000 Do Collins?
02:15:05.000 No.
02:15:06.000 Baze Doomer says, I will fear no evil.
02:15:08.000 Psalm 23-4.
02:15:09.000 Thank you, big guy.
02:15:10.000 Wow, very true.
02:15:12.000 Mario's a Zionist EMP wave broke the light Q predicted this.
02:15:16.000 Okay Femboy says Nick this show is so boring chat change on camera.
02:15:22.000 Yeah Portland groper says blessed that I still have a job.
02:15:27.000 Here's to America first.
02:15:28.000 Thanks Over groper says we was suckers.
02:15:32.000 Well, we'll see peace King says respect the pivot.
02:15:35.000 It's not a pivot.
02:15:36.000 It's not a pivot.
02:15:37.000 I
02:15:38.000 And I love when people do this.
02:15:40.000 New information comes out.
02:15:41.000 You're pivoting.
02:15:41.000 You're 180ing.
02:15:43.000 Not a pivot.
02:15:44.000 Not a 180.
02:15:45.000 How is it a pivot?
02:15:46.000 A pivot is, you know, you change your position.
02:15:49.000 My position hasn't changed.
02:15:51.000 The information has changed and is changing.
02:15:54.000 And as the information changes, you have to change your understanding of the situation.
02:15:59.000 And, um, you know, to offer up skepticism at this point, I don't think is, is, uh,
02:16:06.000 inconsistent with the information that's coming in.
02:16:09.000 People that were crying out conspiracy three weeks ago were still wrong.
02:16:13.000 You were still wrong, I believe, four, three weeks ago to be saying this is overblown, whatever, because all the information four weeks ago pointed towards major pandemic.
02:16:25.000 And the people that were saying that it was not a big deal and x, y, and z, they were saying that based on no evidence.
02:16:32.000 They were saying that based on
02:16:35.000 A knee jerk impulse to question anything that comes out.
02:16:40.000 And to me, I believe that a pandemic from China, or in general, is likely.
02:16:45.000 And I said this back in January.
02:16:47.000 This might be the one, it might not be the one.
02:16:49.000 I said this in January.
02:16:50.000 I said, but if it is the one,
02:16:53.000 Or if it isn't the one, then we have to prepare.
02:16:56.000 And when it is the one, then we'll be prepared and we'll know what to expect, right?
02:16:59.000 In other words, we're going to get a pandemic eventually.
02:17:03.000 Based on globalization, based on lax hygiene and sanitation standards in other countries, you're going to get a pandemic.
02:17:10.000 And you're going to get one that's bad.
02:17:12.000 Even if it's a virus, if it's bacteria with antibiotics, you're going to get a bug that is going to bring the world to its knees.
02:17:20.000 Better prepare now.
02:17:22.000 Whether it is the one or it isn't the one.
02:17:23.000 And I said that in January and February.
02:17:26.000 But, um, people that were saying in the middle of March, oh, it's nothing, it's the flu, you know, like that boomer.
02:17:34.000 There's 1,300 cases!
02:17:35.000 That's not a lot of people!
02:17:37.000 Well, that is still wrong.
02:17:39.000 It is still wrong to say, back then, oh, not a lot of people have it, only 1,300 cases.
02:17:45.000 That was obviously wrong, because now we're up to half a million cases.
02:17:50.000 And so you cannot look at the present number and say, oh, we're okay, because, you know, you have so many that are undetected and testing isn't there.
02:17:57.000 And until and unless you do the testing regimen, you don't know how many people have the virus.
02:18:02.000 And if you don't know how many people have the virus, you don't know what the death rate is.
02:18:07.000 And if you don't know what the death rate is, you have no idea what you're dealing with.
02:18:11.000 So, you know.
02:18:13.000 And I know that's going to happen, and I've been saying that's going to happen, but
02:18:18.000 So it's not, it's not a, respect the pivot, it's a 180.
02:18:21.000 Not a pivot, not a 180.
02:18:23.000 You know, if it comes out in a few weeks that the death rate is drastically lower, does that mean that we were wrong to look at the information back in March?
02:18:31.000 The information that we had and make a decision based on that?
02:18:34.000 Why did we in March not look into the crystal ball and see that the death rate was much lower?
02:18:39.000 You know what I'm saying?
02:18:40.000 So, any and all takes have to be based on the information at the time.
02:18:45.000 Time doubts is a stream watching endgame would be fun lol.
02:18:48.000 That sounds retarded.
02:18:49.000 Thanks for the ninja genie Fanny says I worked at a hospital and wanted to tell you it's not busy weeks ago, but scared you were going to roast me Okay, thanks for the ninja genie, but also weeks ago.
02:18:59.000 You didn't have as many people because the outbreak wasn't as bad yet This is supposed to be the peak.
02:19:04.000 So if you say the hospital wasn't busy weeks ago.
02:19:08.000 Well, that's because we haven't peaked yet You know
02:19:11.000 So, it wouldn't have made sense.
02:19:12.000 If you said two weeks ago, the expectation is that it would have peaked this week.
02:19:17.000 So, if the expectation was, whether or not it peaks this week, if the hospital was empty four weeks ago, do you understand?
02:19:26.000 There was no expectation that the hospital would have been overrun four weeks ago because the epidemic wasn't that bad yet.
02:19:33.000 Nitrodub says, first time I recall you taking a drink on the show.
02:19:37.000 Okay.
02:19:38.000 Starships says, video of Chinese people sneezing on food in US supermarkets, wiping tissues on public spaces is suspect.
02:19:45.000 I agree.
02:19:46.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
02:19:48.000 Brad the Zoomer says, groiping, conning, TikTok is a pastime.
02:19:51.000 Ed, Zoomer, Brad.
02:19:52.000 Okay.
02:19:53.000 Opticsrespector says, false factions?
02:19:55.000 Never heard of that before.
02:19:57.000 What is a false faction?
02:20:00.000 I don't understand why people want to watch this show if they, you know, they hate my god, they hate the people that watch the show, right?
02:20:07.000 I don't understand.
02:20:28.000 This guy's in our chat every day doing fed shit, spreading, you know, Wignatt ideology, taking a dump on Jesus, and, oh, but I love your show!
02:20:41.000 Why?
02:20:41.000 You know, thanks, but no thanks.
02:20:44.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini, but I don't understand.
02:20:46.000 We don't want to have people around here that are going to be, uh...
02:20:49.000 You know, trying to get my show banned.
02:21:19.000 Platform, you know people are like, oh, you know, Nick is an optics cock Nick doesn't want this because he's a cock whatever in an ideal world We could have anybody post whatever they want in the chat in the super chat, but that's not the world we live in We've been driven off YouTube and the only complaints that I've gotten from D live is they say my live chat That's the only thing they say they say well you haven't been reported about anything, but your live chat keeps getting reported so
02:21:47.000 I can't give you a second or third chance.
02:22:03.000 No, I think that's just because unemployment is high now.
02:22:05.000 So true.
02:22:05.000 You're welcome.
02:22:06.000 Glad to hear it.
02:22:07.000 Yeah, very true.
02:22:24.000 Wow, very profound.
02:22:25.000 I've never heard this take before.
02:22:27.000 When is the next video coming?
02:22:28.000 That's hilarious.
02:22:30.000 That's not true, but thanks for the Ninjagini.
02:22:54.000 I've heard that conspiracy a lot.
02:22:55.000 I mean, there are a lot of people that are reading the Schofield Bible, and there is a bad translation, but that doesn't explain all of it, okay?
02:23:03.000 The Schofield Bible is not the end-all be-all explanation of Zionist evangelicals in America.
02:23:09.000 It just isn't.
02:23:10.000 But thanks for the Nijigini.
02:23:11.000 The Schofield Bible?
02:23:14.000 Oh, really?
02:23:14.000 What's that?
02:23:15.000 Like, that's not... Some of these people, they find, like, one thing, and it's like, you know,
02:23:22.000 The Kalergi paper!
02:23:24.000 The Schofield Bible!
02:23:25.000 Oh, this explains it all!
02:23:26.000 Cultural Marxism!
02:23:28.000 The Frankfurt School!
02:23:29.000 You know, they find these monocausal, like, little, you know, obscure causes, and it's like, that's not... Sorry, but not it.
02:23:37.000 Thanks for the Ninjagini.
02:23:38.000 I mean, it plays a part, and it's part of a bigger pattern, but that is not, that is not really, uh... And in a lot of cases, you have evangelicals that are not reading the Schofield Bible, but they're still extreme Zionists or, uh, you know, philo-semitic.
02:23:51.000 Vlad Groyper says, Nick the Biker, Harley, Cafe Racer, or Rocket?
02:23:56.000 I'm not a biker.
02:23:58.000 Joshua Larson says, I have three of Noam Chomsky's books on language, and you're absolutely right, he's brilliant in One Avenue.
02:24:04.000 Yeah, exactly.
02:24:05.000 Linguistics, and that's his area of expertise, so those are probably very academic books, but, you know, writing pop political theory, that is not, that is not really worthwhile to me.
02:24:18.000 Thanks for the Nijigini.
02:24:20.000 Spanish Griper says Old Covenant was cancelled in the New Testament.
02:24:24.000 The New Covenant is between God and the Gentiles.
02:24:27.000 Well, that's not actually what it says.
02:24:29.000 It just says it's between God and Christians.
02:24:33.000 That's true to, you know, the Old Testament and the New Testament, the Old Covenant and the New Covenant.
02:24:38.000 But it's not that it's non-Jews, in other words, like non-Hebrews or non-like, right?
02:24:45.000 The tribes.
02:24:46.000 But it is to say that if you're a Christian, you're the new Israel.
02:24:50.000 That is the covenant that is made by Jesus Christ's coming and death and resurrection.
02:24:57.000 So...
02:24:58.000 So true, thanks for the Nijigini, but it's about Christians.
02:25:01.000 It's Christ and the Christians.
02:25:03.000 And that's what that girl, she came up to me and she's like, how can you be against Israel when, you know, the Old Testament says, we bless those who bless Israel.
02:25:12.000 Well, Israel in the Old Testament means the tribe.
02:25:16.000 And then Jesus comes and he makes a new covenant with the believers in Christ and says, well, if you believe in me, you know, I fulfilled the prophecies.
02:25:26.000 I am the savior.
02:25:29.000 If you believe in me, then that's the new covenant.
02:25:32.000 That's the new Israel.
02:25:34.000 It's the believers.
02:25:35.000 So, true.
02:25:41.000 I'm not going to do that.
02:25:42.000 Yeah, and I'll just say some are better than others, but I still just generally believe that you should read old books.
02:26:11.000 And, you know, reading it is like an artifact of our time.
02:26:16.000 And it's, you know, Tucker Carlson's book is a contribution to the conversation, the political landscape.
02:26:22.000 But reading it in itself, I think, you know, you could read better books.
02:26:26.000 But Tucker Carlson's book is probably better than most.
02:26:29.000 I read his book and it was insightful.
02:26:32.000 And there's some new information in there.
02:26:33.000 Better than most, but again,
02:26:36.000 I do prefer to read other stuff.
02:26:39.000 That's my preference.
02:26:41.000 Chicken Strip says, do you have any stream elements?
02:26:43.000 No, because I couldn't do payouts with stream elements.
02:26:46.000 Zavibas says, just listen to your gut.
02:26:48.000 Yeah.
02:26:50.000 James says, glad to see you doing well here.

02:26:53.000 Uh, yeah.
02:26:55.000 Thanks for the Nijigini.
02:26:56.000 Ghani and Groik versus Nicholas means people's victory and Fuentes equals source.

02:28:35.000 Is that true?
02:28:36.000 I think everybody argues but Jaden isn't met.
02:28:39.000 That's the thing.
02:28:39.000 So maybe maybe It's one way for me and something else for him because he's in a cringe He is a cringe Scots-Irish German, so Maybe in his mind.
02:28:52.000 This is like very deeply personal and he takes deep personal offense at these fights and as a Mediterranean I'm like, ah, you know, we're breaking each other's balls
02:29:00.000 We're having a good time.
02:29:02.000 Maybe for Jaden.
02:29:03.000 He's stewing about this, right?
02:29:06.000 He's reaching a boiling point with me.
02:29:08.000 So, I don't know.
02:29:11.000 Practical, but more than that, I think it's just generally true about relationships.
02:29:15.000 Not even so much for bonding, not even just arguing, but sincerely getting in fights and having a problem with somebody.
02:29:22.000 That is how you build a resilient friendship.
02:29:25.000 Not arguing, fighting.
02:29:27.000 Practical TM says, Ann Coulter books need to get retards on board.
02:29:30.000 Okay, that's missing the point.

02:32:28.000 Okay, all right, yeah, I'm just not really happy with our super chats tonight these suck I'm not happy.
02:32:36.000 It's 1015 the show is dragged on long before long after it should have With all these garbage, what would even are some of these chats this one in particular?
02:32:49.000 Do you know how Zionists infiltrated USA evangelic?
02:32:55.000 What does that mean?
02:32:57.000 And yes, I do.
02:32:58.000 You want me to explain it or what?
02:33:02.000 How Zionists infiltrated the evangelical community, evangelicals, US government.

02:33:15.000 Hey, knowledge check?
02:33:16.000 Is Greek mythology based or cringe?
02:33:19.000 Who asks something like this?
02:33:20.000 What is the intention?
02:33:22.000 I'm wondering who is out there and says to themselves, here's a thoughtful message for Nick.
02:33:28.000 Here's a thoughtful super chat.
02:33:29.000 Here's a thoughtful question that I'd like answered.
02:33:32.000 Is Greek mythology based or cringe?
02:33:34.000 I want to know if Greek mythology is based or cringe.
02:33:38.000 Cringe.
02:33:40.000 Is Greece cringe?
02:33:43.000 Am I cringe, Nick?
02:33:44.000 Am I based or cringe?
02:33:45.000 You're cringe.
02:33:52.000 Yeah, some of these, it's just like, I don't know, man.
02:33:55.000 I don't know.
02:33:57.000 Uh, anyway, so yeah, pretty, pretty rough night.
02:34:00.000 Some of them are good, some of them are bad.
02:34:01.000 It's a mixed bag, but there's just too many.
02:34:04.000 The problem on DE Live, it's the, the threshold is lower.
02:34:08.000 When the Groyper Wars happened, we had to increase the threshold.
02:34:11.000 We wanted to, because we have all these new people coming in, and naturally a lot of people that, you know, shouldn't.
02:34:18.000 Maybe we don't need to read their superchats.
02:34:21.000 And so we were gonna raise the threshold from $2 to like $5, but then we had to go to DLive, and the threshold is lowered from $2 to $1.
02:34:29.000 Now anyone with $1, $1, is gonna come in and, you know, do a smiley face emoticon, or just say hi, or say pee-pee poo-poo, or whatever.
02:34:43.000 They're gonna say, uh, what's Switzerland's endgame?
02:34:49.000 Right?
02:34:53.000 Yeah, anyway, so so yeah, whatever whatever it's Friday.
02:34:59.000 Thank God.
02:34:59.000 It's Friday.
02:35:00.000 I'm done I washed my hands of this.
02:35:03.000 I washed my hands of the super chat.
