The death rate is rising in New York and New Jersey, and the World Health Organization is considering cutting funding to fight the spread of coronavirus. Tonight, we talk about the WHO's latest numbers, and why they may not be as bad as they appear to be. We also talk about why the death rate may be higher than it has been for a long time, and what that means for the future of the outbreak. We'll talk about that and much, much more on tonight's show. Stay tuned for a special bonus segment at the end of the show where we discuss the latest in the outbreak, and how the death toll could impact the recovery efforts. Thanks to everyone for all your support, stay safe, and stay tuned for more episodes like this one in the coming days and weeks! -Ned and Nicholas J.

00:00:04.000Good evening everybody you are watching America First.
00:03:11.000The number of hospitalizations has gone down in New York.
00:03:15.000The number of people that are discharged from the hospital, not like in a body bag discharge, like they leave, they walk out, that number is going down as well.
00:03:25.000And they say that now today the death rate, the number of daily deaths, is the highest it's been in New York and New Jersey.
00:03:35.000But the thing about that number is it lags behind, obviously, because first the people get admitted to the hospital, right?
00:03:44.000And then if it's serious, then they die in the hospital.
00:03:47.000But if you have the number of hospitalizations going down, the death rate might still be climbing.
00:03:55.000The death rate might still be getting higher.
00:03:58.000But the thing is, is that it will lag behind the hospitalizations.
00:04:02.000And so you can kind of forecast where the death rate will be at based on where the hospitalization rate is going to be at, or where it is now.
00:04:21.000But if the number of people that are being hospitalized is going down, then that means that later you're going to see that correspond with the death rate.
00:04:59.000And a friend of mine called me up and said, you know, you shouldn't get tired of it just yet because this is going to be our lives for the next six months.
00:06:23.000This is just new facts, new information, just an update to the same situation, just adding a little bit on top of it.
00:06:31.000And you know, I can comment on how Trump is doing or where we're going, but there's just not enough.
00:06:37.000There's just not enough to keep the news cycle satiated, to satiate your appetite, your hunger for fresh content, for fresh stories and commentary.
00:06:52.000Everybody's inside in America and everybody, even the important people, the government, the rich,
00:06:59.000Media and everyone's inside in Europe and everyone's inside in Asia and everywhere else so The world is ground to a standstill and you know, what is gonna be the news like what happens at home inside?
00:07:13.000You know, whatever but I'm gonna stop complaining.
00:07:29.000We were supposed to be doing a college tour for America First this month and we had dates on the calendar and we were gonna get out there and we were gonna get a van or something you know like a van rent a car or something and we were gonna hit the road coast to coast and
00:07:47.000And I was gonna be out of the country maybe some places and now it's like oh I'm just hanging out.
00:07:55.000Now I'm watching the Star Wars marathon on TNT again.
00:07:59.000I'm watching Star Wars 3 for like the seventh time this week and doing my chores in Animal Crossing.
00:08:07.000Anyway anyway but that's what I'm up to.
00:10:36.000So our world total for confirmed cases is up to 1.4 million numbers going up, it seems.
00:10:48.000In the United States, we're up to nearly 400,000 confirmed cases, 30,000 in 24 hours, 30,000 new cases in 24 hours, which is actually up from yesterday.
00:10:54.000Spain is up to 140,000, Italy 135,000, France is now in fourth place, which is a new development.
00:11:19.000Iran 62,000 and the United Kingdom 55,000 and you know we're gonna have to start charting the deaths that's gonna be the critical number these days at least for us.
00:11:32.000We have had close to 1,800 new dead in the last 24 hours for the United States.
00:11:39.0001,800 in the US alone dead in the last day and this number is going up across the country and it's going to keep going up
00:11:52.000The next week or the next two weeks, who knows, maybe the next three weeks, we're going to see peak death rate, peak rate of new confirmed cases, and it's just going to keep getting worse.
00:12:03.000And this is going to be the hardest part for a lot of people, at least as far as the public health goes.
00:12:09.000The financial stuff, that's going to be a problem probably for a while.
00:12:14.000And we'll see what reintegration looks like, but I mean that's gonna be its own challenge.
00:12:19.000As far as public health goes, this is gonna be the worst of it.
00:12:22.000You know, 1800 people dying every day.
00:13:15.000Put that on top of what we have already, you're talking about 30-40,000 dead.
00:13:20.000And we've been doing the math on that.
00:13:21.000Obviously, that's a projection that's based on
00:13:25.000Well, we've heard, but that's just to give you an idea of the scale and the scope.
00:13:29.000And again, you know, a lot of people, I've even seen this today from people I like, people are today posting the flu numbers and they're saying 13,000 dead from coronavirus, but 20,000 dead from the flu?
00:13:43.000And it's like, well yeah, because with the coronavirus we took everybody off the streets for a month.
00:13:51.000Like you think that doesn't have an impact?
00:13:53.000People have no immunity to the coronavirus.
00:13:56.000So even if you have a lot of asymptomatic carriers, and even if you have a lot of people that you don't even know about that have the virus,
00:14:08.000And, you know, even if they're asymptomatic, everybody's going to get it.
00:14:11.000And if everybody gets it, even if the death rate is low, you're talking about many, many, many thousands of people.
00:14:16.000We're going to be looking at probably, you know, I think it's safe to say 40,000 dead within the next two weeks.
00:14:23.000And that's with a month of social distancing.
00:14:28.000That's with a month of shutting everything down.
00:14:31.000That's with a month of precautions and national emergency and so on.
00:14:35.000And that's with, you know, however many are infected now.
00:14:38.000Imagine what it would be like if we took no action.
00:14:41.000Imagine what it would be like if people continued to transmit the virus in class, in hospitals, in airports, and around the world.
00:14:50.000I mean it would have been much higher and I said this the other day but you know that people are gonna if we don't come out of this completely scarred you know that all the usual suspects throughout this whole thing who have been saying this are gonna come out and say oh well compared to the flu death rate this is no big deal.
00:15:53.000If we avert the crisis, then it's going to be a low death count, and we want that.
00:15:58.000And that has an effect on the death count.
00:16:00.000But people are like, well, if it's 100,000 dead, well, then it would have been worth it.
00:16:04.000Well, how does that make any sense, right?
00:16:06.000So we are probably going to hear a lot of that, but you know, the numbers are going to get up there even with these very intense, very extraordinary measures put into place that are destroying the economy, right?
00:16:20.000And the jobless numbers are going to come out, but you've got millions and millions of people unemployed and GDP is going to contract like
00:16:31.000I don't know about 25, but you know people have been saying these really really big numbers And I know a lot of people in our circles like to say oh my GDP
00:17:29.000Imprecise measure of just scale of just the raw size of the economy and it really doesn't take much into consideration It doesn't look at standard of living.
00:17:38.000It doesn't look at social problems It doesn't look at per capita how people are doing in terms of their income or their expenses things like that, right?
00:17:47.000savings debt, so it's really a bad measure at trying to
00:17:53.000Come to some conclusion about the health or the welfare or getting an overall picture of even the economy, but really the society in general.
00:18:37.000There are real-world consequences for real people, and lots of real people, and mostly people that are not really well-to-do, people that are working in middle class.
00:18:46.000And so when we're looking at a measure like that, that is a big deal, right?
00:18:50.000But a lot of people are out there saying, oh, my GDP, my stock market.
00:18:55.000The only people that could possibly care about this is, you know, the capitalist class, or regulators, or economists.
00:19:02.000And it's like, you never understood in the first place what the problem was with, you know, worshipping the stock market or the GDP, right?
00:19:10.000Do you understand why these things are different?
00:19:12.000Do you get why that's not exactly the same thing?
00:19:15.000You know, when we chastise certain people for, like even Donald Trump, for saying record highs in the stock markets, you know, the reason why that's not a great thing to look at is because the stock market is largely being driven by
00:19:30.000Quantitative easing, cheap credit, stock buybacks, you know, all kinds of like goofy things that are being done to distort the real economic picture.
00:19:40.000And on top of that, you know, it just doesn't give a very good idea of what the quality of life looks like for a lot of people.
00:19:48.000Apple and Amazon and your trillion dollar multinational corporations are going to be fine.
00:19:54.000And your multinational corporations and giant corporations that make up
00:20:13.000And so companies will come in and go out, right?
00:20:16.000So if you're just looking at the top 500 companies, it's kind of always going to be doing okay.
00:20:21.000You know, and I'm not getting extremely technical here, I'm oversimplifying.
00:20:25.000But the point is to say, like, to champion things like GDP or stock market is not a great way.
00:20:31.000That's not the only figure, or maybe even the main one, or even one that we should consider at all when looking at the health of our country.
00:20:38.000Or our society or our communities, because there's so many other factors, economic, you know, generally, but in all kinds of other ways that aren't even economic, like, you know, spirituality, religiosity, the social fabric, the culture of the nation, cohesion, stability.
00:20:56.000I mean, there are tons of things to look at.
00:20:58.000all that being said the stock market is actually very consequential because you know people's retirement is tied up in this and there's a lot of and just like GDP when you see a 35% drop in the stock market again this can have real-world consequences for real people and that does matter so so anyway I know I know I've been saying that I said that like last week but it's during these coronavirus times when people just don't
00:21:25.000I don't know they just don't think it through and it's at times like these more than ever when you have to have a really cohesive and well-thought-out kind of idea about these things like a really actually thorough understanding you know normally I like to play up the memes or if a meme isn't totally true it might be funny you know what I'm saying but
00:21:48.000It's times like these when people are buying into a lot of false information or hysteria or they get their takes about this crisis from the internet and normally I don't like to do this like well actually type thing but
00:22:01.000In these times, it's kind of important.
00:22:03.000I see a lot of people, oh, landlords aren't getting paid.
00:23:02.000It says, quote, President Trump lashed out on Tuesday at the World Health Organization, creating a new enemy to attack and threatening to withhold funding from the world's premier health institution, even as a deadly virus ravages nations around the globe.
00:23:18.000Trump said, quote, we are going to put a hold on money spent to the World Health Organization.
00:23:23.000We're going to put a very powerful hold on it.
00:23:34.000President Trump appeared to be particularly angry at the WHO for issuing a statement saying it did not support its decision on January 31st to restrict some travel from China because of the virus.
00:23:47.000At the time, the group issued a statement saying that, quote, Which is true.
00:24:02.000When Trump issued the travel ban or whatever you want to say, first it was screening and then it was an outright travel ban for China, the WHO came out and said, don't do that.
00:27:14.000And even in this New York Times article, I'm reading through it, and it's such... And I clip these articles, you know, I don't just read them straight up.
00:27:21.000I clip them so we, you know, only have what's necessary.
00:27:25.000But I'll read you some of the excerpts of the full article, just to give you an idea.
00:27:31.000It says, you know, President Trump lashes out, you know, lashed out at the World Health Organization, creating a new enemy to attack.
00:27:39.000You know, very loaded language, and I read that part.
00:27:42.000It says, in effect, this is the part I didn't read, in effect, Mr. Trump was attempting to blame the WHO for the very missteps and failures that have been leveled at him and his administration.
00:27:56.000You know, that sounds a lot like editorializing, doesn't it?
00:27:59.000Public health experts have said Mr. Trump's public denials of concern about the virus slowed the American response which included slow testing and a failure to stockpile protective gear.
00:28:10.000And to me this is just such bullshit because the WHO did fight us every step of the way.
00:28:17.000They colluded with China to downplay and cover up the severity of the virus.
00:28:22.000They knew the origin, which was a laboratory, which was a bat that's not native to Wuhan, right?
00:28:48.000When he did the travel ban, and the WHO didn't want it, and now the New York Times is going to say, oh, well, I know the WHO is corrupt, but so are you, you know?
00:28:59.000And it's just, these people should be tried for treason.
00:29:02.000And I know I've gotten in trouble in the past for saying this, but I mean, what they're doing, they are the enemy of the people.
00:29:10.000And I'm not just like regurgitating a Trump line.
00:29:14.000I mean, they're the enemy of the people.
00:29:21.000They are hurting, and I'm talking about media, I'm talking about journalists, the press, at least the people that lie, and that's a lot of them, they are putting all of us in danger because they are lying and because they're putting politics and this agenda ahead of
00:29:40.000The welfare of our nation, especially at a time when we're in crisis, when we're under siege from this kind of a threat, a severe global and intense threat like this, an act of God threat.
00:29:52.000And they want to do this game where they write about, Trump lashes out, creates a new enemy.
00:29:59.000Well, public health experts have caught... No, but it's him!
00:31:22.000But then again with a crisis like this nobody saw this coming because they were lying to us about it because the WHO and China were lying to us about it, right?
00:31:32.000So the response is about as good as it's gonna get.
00:31:36.000It's about as good as you can expect and especially from government because normally the expectation is the government is slow and ineffective and fails, right?
00:31:45.000So all things considered the mobilization of Congress
00:31:48.000The private sector, healthcare resources, the labs, all of this.
00:32:22.000Where they have some fake nurse, who's literally mentally ill, who gets in front of a camera and says, uh, they're telling us to work without masks!
00:32:54.000At the least, they should be put in jail.
00:32:57.000That should be the minimum that during a public health emergency like this, during a crisis, they're going to put out misinformation, and worse even than lying, what they're essentially trying to do is to sow division and doubt and undermine the credibility of the government at a time like this.
00:33:14.000And at a time like this, you need, you actually need a little bit of, um, what is the word that I'm looking for?
00:34:20.000Throwing the whole country under the bus, you have a public role as the press, which is pretty unique and pretty consequential, especially for a country like this, in this period in history.
00:34:31.000A pretty consequential role that information plays in mass media and journalism.
00:34:36.000And it just should not be legal to do this.
00:34:40.000And everybody believes that there are these, like, market forces that will regulate this.
00:34:45.000That, well, you know, people won't trust them or they'll vote with their dollars.
00:36:19.000And I'm not, I don't say that to be dramatic, but I say that to point out the very human toll that people have to pay for journalists being reckless and playing politics.
00:36:30.000And they sit in their, whatever, the writer's room in Manhattan or in Los Angeles or wherever, in Arlington or D.C.
00:36:40.000You know, they sit in their trendy little office in a beanbag chair and they type away,
00:36:46.000Oh, the president isn't doing such a good job!
00:36:49.000And this is having real consequences for people, financially, with public health, and so on.
00:36:57.000Like, you, you know, you're harming people by doing that.
00:37:00.000You have a very important public responsibility, and you're abusing it, and you're being reckless.
00:37:05.000And it's not good enough to say you're a bad person, or even to say, like, you're fired.
00:37:10.000No, now you need to suffer, and the government needs to make you suffer, and we need to put it on the books that people who do this have to be penalized.
00:37:20.000And not like rehabilitated, not like, you know, we're going to make you better, like, we're going to punish you for doing the wrong thing.
00:38:14.000We need to look at people that are defaming or libeling other people, and we need to put them in jail.
00:38:20.000Because how much of this current situation has been created by reckless people in a position of outsized influence, disproportionate influence?
00:38:31.000That one faggy hipster in New York City in a beanie, on a beanbag chair, writing for BuzzFeed, is going to have this disproportionate influence on taste and on thought, you know, writing for whatever publication, and it's going to hurt people and cause polarization and conflict as a result.
00:38:49.000And there's not really a great way to do that, but we have to start trying and figuring it out how we're going to do that.
00:38:56.000And I know we haven't even gotten into the subject at hand, but I just read this paper and it just makes me furious.
00:39:03.000And even these journalists in that briefing, like that disgusting fat cow, did you see that one?
00:39:12.000She looks like an idiot and You know she happens to be black not that that has anything to do with it But she's totally fat if you've seen her and she's a total liberal have you ever seen that one and she asked some of the nastiest questions and And people like that just make my skin crawl like they and this is why the country was the way it was
00:39:36.000Frankly, you know, when we think about American society, we like to think that it was progress.
00:39:42.000That now everybody, men and women, and children and adults, and the young and the old, and every tribe, and every kind of person, rich and poor, everybody's totally equal, and everybody's got the same rights, and everything, and everybody's listened to, and everybody's heard, and everybody's the boss, and everybody's
00:40:04.000I'm gonna tell you what's on their mind.
00:40:06.000But, you know, when the country started out, it was not like that.
00:40:18.000And the reason was because they thought that the small amount of people that could vote or were listened to, those were people that would make good decisions.
00:40:42.000And given what we know about people, these are the people that are probably going to make good decisions based on what is in the best interest of the nation.
00:40:50.000And, you know, there's still corruption.
00:41:00.000And now you've got people that, I mean, you just take one look at this person and you say, this is not somebody who I entrust with a serious responsibility like journalism.
00:41:09.000I look, I take one look at this, you know, piggy.
00:41:36.000And that's what's happening across the country.
00:41:38.000And these are the people that are, that are, you know, they are ruining our country.
00:41:43.000And I know, and that's not a racial thing, it's not even so much a gender thing, it's just like, that, that carelessness, that sort of, and it's, you know, it's all kinds of people, it's a lot of white male liberals too, you know, people like Joe Bernstein and others, I guess Joe Bernstein isn't totally white, but you know what I'm saying.
00:42:19.000I just, for the most part, I just do, okay?
00:42:22.000That's maybe the only group I have a blanket prejudice against that I would say, you know.
00:42:27.000I'm sorry you seem like a nice person, but you're a journalist, you know With every with every other group of people I treat them as individuals and dignity and respect and all this but with even a journalist That's the only one where I'd have like an unironic like ancient prejudice
00:42:42.000You know, you seem like a really good person, but I just don't talk to journalists.
00:42:45.000I'm sorry, I just can't be friends with you, you know?
00:42:50.000You seem like a nice person, but you can't come inside, alright?
00:42:53.000Maybe you come through the back when nobody's watching, and, you know, you're a real credit to your kind, but I, you know, I just don't talk to journalists very much.
00:43:04.000I could go on and on about that, but I read this in the New York Times and I think about Hungary, where they actually did put in place these severe penalties for journalists that lie, like a major fine and jail time.
00:43:56.000The first priority of the GOP is to make sure that the GOP still exists and the people working for the GOP still have jobs.
00:44:03.000That's the first and the overriding priority of the GOP.
00:44:06.000And that is true of all institutions like this.
00:44:10.000And of all the powerful institutions, if you could see them as one institution as the elite or the power structure, that is the main task and the main priority and the overriding priority of everything else is to sustain itself.
00:44:26.000And that's why the middle class gets crushed and these people get off because they're part of it and we are not.
00:44:32.000That's why if I go out and I, you know, and you see this all the time where somebody will say online a racist joke, right, or they'll make a joke about violence, which I don't condone, I think it's a terrible idea, and they get arrested.
00:44:48.000You know, New York, it's illegal to say somebody's an illegal immigrant.
00:44:55.000We did a story on this show last year about somebody that got arrested for saying the N-word, literally, in Connecticut, on a college campus.
00:45:06.000Uh, you know, but the media can call you a neo-nazi and a white nationalist, right?
00:45:11.000Antifa can dox your address and lie about you, and the press can print, like, provable lies, no consequence, and try, you know, try to take these people to court.
00:45:22.000Not only do they have infinite resources, but the courts are totally political, and even if they weren't, the laws are not written in your favor, and it's as simple as that, but
00:45:32.000Back to the World Health Organization.
00:45:49.000As I said, Mr. Trump appeared to be particularly angry at the WHO for issuing a statement saying it did not support its decision on January 31st to restrict some travel from China because of the virus.
00:46:00.000At the time, the group issued a statement saying that restricting the movement of people and goods during public health emergencies is ineffective in most situations.
00:46:08.000Mr. Trump said, quote, don't close your borders to China.
00:47:26.000And even if we developed a vaccine, I don't think we should give it to other countries.
00:47:30.000I think we should develop it for ourselves.
00:47:33.000We should not share the information with other countries.
00:47:36.000And once the pandemic is over in our country, then we can sell it to other countries.
00:47:42.000But that's the kind of thinking that we need to have as a country, across the board, with all of our intellectual property, with trade, with everything.
00:47:52.000Because no other country is looking out for our own interest.
00:47:57.000No other country is looking out for the interest of the world.
00:47:59.000They're looking out for the interest of themselves.
00:48:02.000And when we look out for the interest of the world, we're looking out for all these... What do you think that means?
00:48:07.000We look out for everybody else, who are also looking out for themselves.
00:48:11.000And if everyone is looking out for their own selves, and we're looking out for everyone else, who's looking out for us?
00:49:09.000They don't they are not self-interested
00:49:12.000And this is something that we should all aspire to be, is having a global consciousness, a humanitarian, in other words, humanity consciousness.
00:49:20.000Not an American, but a humanity consciousness.
00:49:23.000We should look after humanity, and anybody who looks after their nation is cynical, regressive.
00:49:31.000I mean this is, I think this is what a lot of us, maybe not us, but a lot of people assume, or this is the presupposition, but this is wrong.
00:49:40.000Because where do the people that comprise the WHO come from?
00:51:04.000And it's so weird that at once they completely understand that all these other countries are totally backwards and they're totally, almost like in a juvenile way, self-interested.
00:51:17.000Just like in an impulsive sort of like pathological self-interest.
00:53:24.000And we're keeping them up and open and together and we're dragging these people kicking and screaming into this century.
00:53:32.000I've so had it with the World Health Organization.
00:53:34.000We're like... That's what makes me more mad than anything else, is it's bad enough that we're not putting ourselves first, but who are we putting in front of us?
00:54:02.000The Chicago River is an architectural wonder.
00:54:05.000It's a river that flows in the wrong direction.
00:54:08.000Do you know how difficult that is to engineer?
00:54:11.000The bridges that go over the river, the river itself, you know, there's so much about Chicago that is remarkable.
00:54:18.000And you drive through some of the cities, and you look at the people that have inherited it, and it makes me sick.
00:54:23.000They're just not worthy to inherit what has been created here.
00:54:27.000You know, and they, the graffiti, and they, you know, I drive in Little Village in Pilsen, and they sell their wares on the streets, and it looks like Mexico City.
00:54:37.000And it's like the ruins of a once great civilization and people are selling, you know, their little trinkets in their shops outside of it.
00:55:03.000I'm not saying this is what they believed, but this was the narrative.
00:55:07.00030 years ago we set out on this global crusade to heal the world, to heal the world, which is a very interesting phrase, very interesting connotations, to fix the world, heal the world, heal what's wrong with the very revolutionary mentality, heal the world.
00:55:23.00030 years ago we set out to create international institutions and crusade around the world and liberate people and give them democracy, give them
00:55:33.000Capitalism, give them our stuff and our markets and open everything up.
00:55:49.000Except for disrespected and spit on and laughed at and hated and ridiculed and abused at every turn and it's enough America is like Gulliver, you know being it's like we are the giant being Trapped on the beach by by all these tiny little men Tying us down with string and it's time for us to rise up and take all these people and fucking throw them into the ground You know
00:56:17.000Not everybody, you know what I'm saying?
00:56:20.000No, I'm trying not to break community guidelines here.
00:56:23.000I'm trying my best, but these nations, maybe not the people inside of them, but definitely a lot of them, but these governments, they need to be taught a lesson, especially now.
00:56:34.000You know, just take the vaccines, make a vaccine.
00:57:53.000We'll talk a little bit about the death rate.
00:57:55.000Not too much to say on the numbers front.
00:57:58.000We'll talk a little bit about New York and New Jersey.
00:58:00.000This is the latest report from the New York Times.
00:58:03.000It says, quote, five weeks into the coronavirus outbreak, officials in New York and New Jersey, the two states hit hardest by the pandemic, hoped that the number of virus-related deaths had reached a peak and would flatten or drop for a third straight day.
01:00:01.000More people are going to die in the meantime, but in a week or two then the death rate will follow that trend of hospitalizations going down, right?
01:00:25.000That's how those numbers relate to each other.
01:00:30.000And I said that last night, that it was kind of a good thing because some of the numbers are going down.
01:00:34.000The death rate is going to peak very soon and it'll peak probably in New York and New Jersey first and it'll peak in these other states and that's the thing is there's different curves for every state.
01:00:45.000We're looking at a curve for Italy and comparing it to the United States but that doesn't make any sense because the United States is a big country.
01:00:53.000350 million people and very diverse not just in the population but in the
01:00:59.000Population density and and who was exposed to the virus first and who reacted and how how quickly and in what ways?
01:01:08.000Right, so you have different curves for different states and hotspots so it's probably gonna peak in New York and New Jersey first and it's gonna peak in these other hotspots and then hopefully there will be light at the end of the tunnel once all the numbers taper off and we start to see declines and
01:01:24.000It seems like that's happening in Italy and Spain and also Germany and France.
01:01:30.000So we'll keep an eye on that, but those are our latest numbers.
01:01:33.000We're gonna move on and take a look at our Super Chats and we'll see what you guys are saying about all this.
01:02:11.000I'll just have to be in like a t-shirt and my underwear because I'll put on a sweatshirt and like other clothes and like I keep I keep like feeling like them on me and restricting me and I'm like okay I can't do it you know I'm telling you I'm gonna become Howard Hughes I'm gonna become I keep feeling this collar on me I can't let it go I've got I've got problems man
01:03:32.000It's like watching a peasant dance for change in the street.
01:03:36.000It's like watching a dirty peasant, you know, desperately doing dance moves in the street so you might throw some change in their hat, so you can throw some change in their pan.
01:03:49.000some walmart slave on his you know during his 15 minute break and i can imagine this is part of a series on the show this ongoing series of you know these very very sad vignettes of american life and you can imagine like a uh
01:04:07.000You can imagine some guy, you know, in one of these burnt-out towns where Walmart is the only source of, like, a good steady employment, right, is Walmart, the local superstore.
01:04:19.000And you can imagine some young guy, and you know, he's got nowhere to go, doesn't have any money for college, but he's working at Walmart.
01:04:26.000And you can imagine, you know, sort of a guy with not a lot of options and not a lot of mobility, desperately during his lunch hour practicing these dances.
01:04:36.000You know, watching on TikTok, doing these silly trend videos, you know, trying to master the lip sync or the dance, getting it just right.
01:04:46.000Getting frustrated and failing, trying to do these silly tasks.
01:04:51.000You know, increasingly, all of our society's becoming ghettoized.
01:04:56.000It's becoming like the black community in the sense of, notoriously blacks, the only way out of the ghetto is basketball or rap music, right?
01:05:05.000That's why, well, that's not the only way, but, I mean, that's what they think in some cases.
01:05:12.000That's what a lot of black youth think is,
01:05:14.000You know, you're either gonna, your sound cloud is gonna blow up, right?
01:05:19.000And increasingly, all of society's becoming this way, where it seems like the only opportunities to really escape the rat race are like, I'm gonna be a TikToker, I'm gonna be a YouTuber, I'm gonna be a lifestyle vlogger.
01:05:32.000I'm going to invest my spare change and become a millionaire on the stock market.
01:05:38.000I'm going to get one of these apps that rounds up my purchases to the nearest dollar and invest my pocket change and pretty soon I'm going to be a millionaire.
01:06:58.000I've got... I just spent my paycheck on a webcam and a laptop and I'm editing until my fingers hurt and I'm going to be one of the ones who makes it as a vlogger.
01:08:19.000Lifted trucks it's just sort of like the demeaning nature of it because you have some people that's the thing about TikTok which I think is fascinating is you'll scroll through TikTok and one video will be somebody who has won the lottery and not like they won the lottery you know what I mean like they were born super rich and they won the genetic lottery too like they're tall and they're good looking and they just exude like a natural
01:08:45.000you know they've got it and they're rich and so one tiktok will be somebody who's like hey yo what is it hey yo rich boy check or you know whatever it is and uh you know they're just you know the whole tiktok is them like oh here's my car here are my shoes
01:09:26.000They've got money You'll scroll through that and then you'll see the ugliest person you've ever seen and they're retarded Like they're actually retarded and they're poor and it's like roaches crawling around on their ceiling.
01:10:11.000When you're scrolling through TikTok and...
01:10:14.000You know, you'll scroll through and you'll see one girl, most beautiful girl you've ever seen, and she's rich, and you know, here's my designer shoes.
01:10:25.000Some people, guys or girls, all they do is they just show, you know, they just, it's the laziest, they'll just film themselves like, hi, a million likes, because, you know, they're just good looking.
01:10:38.000And then you've got people that are like, not, you know, they're just not.
01:10:42.000They have nothing going on and you're like, man.
01:10:45.000Then you see these people shucking and jiving in Walmart, you know.
01:10:49.000You see this one where it's this morbidly obese guy and I think he's like gay or something.
01:10:55.000He's morbidly obese ginger and I think he's like totally effeminate.
01:10:59.000I don't know if he's gay or if he's just a weird guy but
01:11:05.000Morbidly obese dude with like no teeth and he'll film himself in his car just pigging out on McDonald's.
01:11:12.000And like, you know, I eat McDonald's, but this guy's like pigging out like a slob and eating like a... And it's like, you'll scroll through, you'll see one and then this one.
01:11:22.000So these are the kinds of things that I think about, you know.
01:11:25.000This is what I, you know, when I'm brooding.
01:12:26.000I don't remember it vividly at all, but I do remember when the statue came down.
01:12:34.000I don't remember, like, seeing it or, like, hearing it on the news, but I do remember, like, my parents telling me about it or hearing about it in school, the statue of Saddam Hussein coming down.
01:12:46.000And I remember, like, the Iraq War when it first started and when it was ongoing.
01:13:58.000Hope it's a good one 22 I'm getting there.
01:14:01.000I'm gonna be 22 in four months Told you this is how it starts I'll be 22 and then 23 man life goes by and then you're then you're done and you're done and what then what happens then right and
01:14:19.00022 23 it's just like I think about that calendar and the Phineas and Ferb intro you know there's a hundred and four days in summer vacation and school comes along just to end it and I imagine the calendar all the dates flying off the calendar but it's years of your life 22 23 and then you know it just goes faster and faster and then you're an old man and then you're an old man you know peering into the grave
01:16:45.000Nickersbyjam says, do you own a copy of Dante's Inferno?
01:16:49.000I came into possession one with the woodwork art, it'd be better in the hands of med than an angle.
01:16:54.000I do actually own a copy, but it's some shitty copy I picked up from Half Price Books.
01:16:59.000So if you sent it my way, I'd appreciate it, man, but thanks.
01:17:04.000Big Globes, as we out here... I read Dante's Inferno in middle school, actually, and it... You know, I don't know if I really... I should probably read it again, because I didn't really... I was in middle school, you know, I think I read it in seventh grade.
01:17:17.000Kind of challenging for a 7th grader, but it's good to know.
01:17:22.000I picked up on a lot of illusions and things like that as I grew older.
01:17:28.000Winston Churchill says my friend pooed in a McDonald's urinal.
01:17:55.000Like, if you want something, that you'll get it?
01:17:58.000I mean, I believe to an extent in this idea of, like, mindset and mentality that
01:18:06.000You know, if you think about something every day...
01:18:11.000You know, like you're probably going to be more likely to actualize your goals if you're always thinking about them and they're always in your brain and you're making decisions based on them.
01:18:21.000You know, to me that just makes sense, but this law of attraction idea, the idea that it's anything more than it is, which to me is pretty straightforward, it's not magic.
01:18:30.000It's not, it's not, you know, cosmic magic or anything.
01:18:35.000To me, it's just as simple as like, and if this is what you're talking about, right?
01:18:42.000I don't know if this is what you're talking about but you know the secret by Oprah right let me look it up yeah to attract into our lives we are focusing on I mean it just makes sense if you vote like for example if I want to be you know if I want to make music for a living and all I do is think about music
01:19:03.000Well, the more that I think about music, the more that I'm going to think about cause and effect, and problems and solutions, and the more I'm going to orient my life towards making music.
01:19:15.000If I'm thinking about music, I'm listening to music, and I'm picking up on patterns, and I'm reading about music, and I'm learning about the industry, and I'm hearing people that make music, and I'm talking to people that are into music, and things I can learn from them, and so on and so forth.
01:19:31.000That's what it was for me with politics.
01:19:34.000All I think about or all I did think about for you know years was politics and it was just my passion.
01:19:41.000Watching politics and talking to people about it and debating and listening to rhetoric and debates and reading and and as a result I've learned a ton about it and I talked to people that knew a ton about it and that were working in it and
01:19:56.000all that and it's like no coincidence that well then doors start to open up for you and opportunities present themselves and it's not magic that doesn't happen like by magic you didn't attract that with like magnetism it's just kind of as simple as you know if you focus on your goals you will achieve them I got to me that's not anything more than it is that's very straightforward and I think that much is obvious so it's not some convoluted you know self-help magic it's just
01:20:27.000You know what you're you know and I know there's a lot of corny stuff about you know your thoughts are your words and your words or your actions and that kind of thing but I mean it is just like that simple I mean what are you but what you think about and that that is what you sort of manifest in the world through your behavior and what you consume and to me it's that's just how all that works together
01:20:52.000So not really anything that's very complicated.
01:20:58.000Tutu says, do you think genetic engineering on humans will be used?
01:22:07.000I don't know what you're trying to do there if you're trying to be funny Question for Knicks is if a Knicker won the lottery, would you want him to bankroll you or would you want to stay independent?
01:23:10.000You know, JD, at first I was skeptical of JD because, you know, he comes into the movement and
01:23:19.000You know, there's this tricky thing about tokenism that we want to avoid.
01:23:23.000Here's this black griper, and I'm always wary, not because they're black in itself, but because, you know the nature of conservative politics, where you do get a lot of blacks that come in and try and grift, you know what I'm saying?
01:23:36.000Where they know that if they put on a MAGA hat and they put up a GoFundMe, then they raise ten grand in a week, right?
01:23:41.000Or they expect a special treatment, or they want you to water down the message.
01:23:46.000And, you know, I have no problem with black people supporting our cause or being in the cause.
01:23:51.000We all have a stake in America first, but I am wary of people that, you know, maybe they don't know what they're getting into with the messaging or whatever.
01:24:00.000But, uh, but JD, honestly, I am continuously, like, surprised at how much we vibe.
01:24:06.000We're all, you know, we'll be talking in a group chat, and we're just on the same wavelength.
01:24:11.000Like, he just says what's on my mind, he just gets it, and I'm like, okay.
01:24:15.000I'm like, damn, okay, my brother, there's that 2%, that 2%, we are on the same level, we are on the same wavelength there, you know?
01:24:24.000That's that African, that tribal, you white toys will never understand, you're too white, you'll never understand what it's like for us brothers, but, I was like, damn, okay, you know, sometimes he says things and I'm like, he's reading my mind right now.
01:25:11.000They like the bend over, the red carpet, all that.
01:25:14.000But, you know, I think a lot of minorities, you know, like any person, I think they just like it straight up.
01:25:21.000That's not all of them, like anybody else, right?
01:25:26.000You know, it's just funny because all these people would have you believe that like, we're, you know, I know it's kind of trite and trite and so on.
01:25:35.000They say we're racist, but we're actually not.
01:26:22.000Blacks and whites have been on this continent longer than anybody, you know, in terms of the United States, not talking about Native Americans.
01:26:30.000So if anybody has an interest in... right?
01:26:32.000And that's like, you know, then that's just true.
01:27:04.000But he goes out there every day and says, lowest black unemployment, look at this one, look at that one, and so on, and I'm not about that.
01:27:21.000And anyway, but anyway, so the black one did a super chat.
01:27:29.000The black one did a super chat and I'm going to tell you about the relationship between blacks and America first and how not racist I am, right?
01:27:36.000Isn't that the natural flow of the conversation?
01:27:40.000But I was thinking about that though, about JD in particular, because I have picked up on that lately in the group chat where we're having a conversation with a few people and I'm like, we just vibe, you know?
01:27:50.000And it just goes to show, just goes to show, hello, one race department?
01:29:48.000I was watching a Kanye interview the other day, and he was saying, Kanye was doing this interview after Jesus is King came out, and he was saying how, you know, in the early 2000s, he was sticking up for gay people.
01:30:02.000And I'm, you know, stick with me here, I'm not saying that's a good thing.
01:30:06.000But Kanye was saying how, you know, in the 2000s, he was one of the first ones to say, you know, don't say fag in rap songs.
01:30:14.000He said, but then, I make a song about Chick-fil-A, and all the gay people are all upset.
01:30:20.000He said, man, you can't do enough for nobody, you know?
01:30:24.000Now, in that particular incident, I don't endorse, like, you know, doing favors for, uh, you know, degeneracy or anything, but, but it's true!
01:30:33.000It's like, how quickly people forget, the short memories.
01:30:36.000And I feel the same way, but with, like,
01:30:39.000You know, and I don't want to make it a negative thing, but it's like, man, you remember two weeks ago when I'm getting blasted on the timeline for this Tootsie Roll thing?
01:31:14.000Trying to do my best to convert people, and I'm doing my best to be a good Catholic, and all I get is... all I get is, you know, people putting me on blast on Twitter.
01:32:31.000Frankly, I thought he was... I don't know if this is gonna come across as mean, but he sounded like... For whatever reason, I thought he was like a fat old guy, okay?
01:32:42.000I don't want to... I like Patrick's voice.
01:32:44.000I think he has a very nice voice, but for whatever reason, when I listened to the interview, on the interview, I thought that he was like...
01:32:50.000If I were to guess I would have said like 36 and maybe like a like a big guy you know not like morbidly obese but he just sounded like don't ask me why that's just you know I didn't know the guy this is the image for whatever reason I conjured in my head and so I went Patrick I'm like okay this is actually like you know no homo like
01:33:10.000A good-looking, like, young guy, right?
01:33:12.000No homo, but I was like, oh, wow, like, hey, Ryan, hey, Reinhard Wolf.
01:33:21.000Oh, hey, you're way younger than I expected.
01:33:24.000I swear I said you're way younger than I expected because I he looks like a young guy even now he looks young which is a good thing and He's like, he's like, I'm 28 or so.
01:34:01.000Patrick's, you know, very optical looking guy, right?
01:34:06.000And then Jaden Oh Jaden we met last year at CPAC.
01:34:11.000Yeah, it's so weird cuz I haven't even known Jaden that long but I feel like you know, but I feel like we've known each other we have a We are kindred zoomer spirits gamers sort of like Autists maybe or introverts.
01:34:25.000I don't know what you would say, but very kindred.
01:34:28.000I feel like I've known him my whole life, right?
01:35:52.000And I don't know how this interaction happened.
01:35:54.000I guess fake Goldie literally just approached.
01:35:57.000Jayden and this other guy and was like you need to come you need to go back to the suite They were just turning point guys Jayden was just a turning point chapter president at the time I believe and so she brought them up to the to the room and and all you know all that aim guys and my guys were there and I
01:36:18.000Faith Golding introduced us, and at the first I thought Jaden was just some, you know, don't get me wrong, I mean Jaden's actually a very optical guy.
01:36:27.000He's like a Chad, you know, he's tall, yet another no homo, but you know, the good-looking guy, right?
01:36:33.000Some of these people in the movement, it's like...
01:36:35.000In the old movement, I'll say, in like the alt-right, it's like, you know, you look like dysgenic, you know what I mean?
01:36:41.000So when I see Jaden and Patrick and people like that, I'm like, okay, like a normal looking, like actually decent looking people, right?
01:36:49.000So, so I see Jaden and I'm like, oh, like, you know, nice to meet you, but I assumed that he was just some yahoo.
01:36:55.000I assumed that he was just some like turning point yahoo.
01:36:59.000I thought, you know, and I didn't even know the guy.
01:37:13.000He doesn't know anything about what's about to happen with Groipers and everything, right?
01:37:19.000I mean we know in 2019 we knew the energy the momentum like you knew you were a part of something he had no idea it was like Bane gathering strength under the city you know what I mean and like Jaden coming to that suite was like when Batman stumbles upon Bane's sewer lair and he's like
01:37:40.000We don't have a nuclear bomb, but you know what I'm saying.
01:38:09.000And I was actually getting a little bit agitated because I'm trying to redpill Jaden and BasedGroiper13 keeps like butting in.
01:38:16.000We're both just like so eager to redpill him on everything that we're just like, we're just like all over him on Israel and on like race and all these things.
01:38:28.000And I'm thinking, like, we're probably alienating this guy.
01:38:34.000This guy comes up to the suite, and we're ambushing this guy, telling him about all this stuff.
01:38:38.000And Jayden's like, well, um, I'll definitely check out your stuff.
01:38:42.000I mean, if what you're saying is true, I mean, that's like, you know, he was just, he was trying to, you know, he was straddling the line a little bit.
01:39:44.000What he would do is instead of just texting me on Instagram, he would take a picture and write a picture of like, you know, a black picture, right?
01:39:54.000And he would write text over it because then he could set the timer and set it so that it was view only once for 10 seconds, right?
01:40:02.000It was like kind of how Snapchat works.
01:40:46.000You know, me and Patrick were probably bound to converge at some point because we were both in dissident, broadly speaking, dissident politics, right?
01:40:54.000So, I mean, and we have, we, me and Patrick have ended up in the same place many different times over the years.
01:41:02.000So, and you know, that's not to say, I mean, I, you know, me and Patrick are friends too, but with him, I think that was more just sort of like, we were on sort of a natural collision course, and sitting literally in, you know, back in the day, but also,
01:41:17.000There were many opportunities for our paths to intersect.
01:41:20.000With me and Jayden, I don't think that was inevitable.
01:41:22.000So, it's almost weird when things like that happen.
01:41:25.000When I think about Faith Goldie being at Trump Hotel at the right time and going up to the right person and saying the right thing and, you know, that it all fell into place like that.
01:41:36.000It's things like that when I'm like... I don't know, man.
01:43:09.000You know, Panther Den, you're like, sending free merch to Jaden, and you're talking to Jaden, and I don't get any free merch, so, I don't know, maybe I'll watch it, maybe I will, I don't know, we'll have to see.
01:43:24.000You know, Panther Den, you make a lot of these videos, and I see a lot of Patrick in there, and I see a lot of Jake Lloyd in there, I even see a little bit of Jaden!
01:44:49.000I will build Lego Star Wars in real life, but that game is too juvenile.
01:44:54.000I don't want to talk about that because we're going to reconstitute the tour in the fall.
01:45:08.000you know leak any details because a lot of that is contingent on some sort of secret plans you know what I mean kind of under the radar stuff so the the tour is not dead it's just postponed.
01:45:21.000Vrod says dad of two no income at the moment starting to laugh now yikes big guy well don't give me diamonds what are you giving me diamonds for if you're in that situation I'm sure I to hear that though I'll pray for you buddy hope you're getting that Trump check coming in
01:45:38.000That's that stuff though, but that's what we're talking about.
01:46:42.000I am getting kind of like a dad physique you know like a baby physique and it's not good so I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have to get in the gym start putting on some muscle you know build the home gym maybe is the solution because I'm like you know it's not good it's not I'm not a good area right but I've been so focused on everything else that's just it I've been I've been the top of my craft
01:47:08.000And that takes a lot out of you, so... Crankfaster says, do you think Vausch could beat you in a debate?
01:47:13.000Not in an objective way, but in a destiny way.
01:47:15.000No, I don't think so at all, because I'm smarter than him.
01:50:03.000Anyway, so for years I didn't like them because I didn't I never really had one before actually so that doesn't look good But I the last time she made them I had one I was like, this is the best cookie I've ever had and now I can't get enough of them.
01:50:18.000I feel cheated my whole life I never ate them because I was like that has nuts in it and that's not like the kind of cookie I like But I was like, you know, I'll give it a shot.
01:50:29.000I haven't had one of these in a million years and
01:50:31.000so I'm gonna shout I say like three of those and I ate a little bit more than three but it made me lose my appetite for dinner so I had a little bit of pasta Winston Churchill so Sargon is a dumby
01:57:10.000I always sort of imagined myself becoming that there's always Some so I always romanticized that in my head when I was a kid as being like some kind of a century eccentric like savant type character where you know, like people have to hide me away because I
01:57:31.000You know, because like Howard Hughes, you know, the public can't see me like this because, you know, I'm tweaking out or something.
01:57:42.000I don't know if that's weird, but, you know, I would watch movies like that or whatever and I always imagine, you know, I'll be an old man.
02:00:12.000So that's okay but she's like she's on telegram she's shaming me she's guilting me into it and it's working and one of these days I'm gonna actually start doing it but I'm feeling it she's lighting that fire under my under my butt on telegram with this you know workout and Steve Franson showing me up doing these face pulls and he looks like
02:00:34.000You know, he's just got this incredible physique.
02:00:36.000He's doing these face pulls, putting me to shame.
02:02:25.000You know, no way is investing 100, unless you're talking about like one of these black swan, like miracle events, you know, you're not going to win unless you invest serious money.
02:02:36.000And in most markets, you're not, you're not going to get 20x, you're not going to get 10x, you're not going to get 2x, you're going to get
02:02:44.00015% you know so and then crypto is a little different it's more volatile and you add you know these crazy crazy spikes like with you know Bitcoin or whatever it's more possible because it's more volatile but you can't count on things like that and you got to risk a lot even if you invest a small amount it's you know it's not enough right
02:04:50.000You know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
02:04:52.000No great agility, it's so rewarding, but like, you know, and I know, I know, we want that, I do want that, but like, great, you know, it's Ultimate Y Pill, the Y Pill's like, you know, just always being bothered.
02:05:07.000I may, look, and I'm different, okay, I'm, you know, I've just got a lot of problems, okay, and the thought of like,
02:05:16.000Not being left alone, it gives me very much a lot of anxiety.
02:05:20.000You know, the idea of just never having my own privacy and my own thing.
02:07:18.000I don't really want to tell the story, but, you know, for a Ninjagini.
02:07:22.000So, you know, when I was in college, long story short, I got tired of the show.
02:07:33.000Long story short, there was this debate that was arranged in my first semester of college between me and the student body president, a political debate, Trump vs. Hillary Clinton.
02:07:45.000I had been causing a big stir on campus and everybody, you know, hated me.
02:07:50.000So, Yal set up a debate on my campus between me and the student body president, because he volunteered to do it, not for any other reason than he volunteered to shut me up.
02:08:02.000And like 200 people came out to watch it.
02:08:05.000And she, working for Campus Reform, came out to cover it.
02:08:23.000you should stay the night you know it's like I see through your tricks harlot not gonna happen you're not even pretty your teeth are all fucked up and you're not even that pretty that was my meeting with Cassie Dillon nice try I'll fleece you I'll fleece you out of an RSVN show but yeah that's about as much as that's about as far as we're gonna get little lady
02:08:49.000I think you're going to get my babies.
02:08:51.000I think you're going to get my Aryan babies.
02:08:53.000I think you're going to get my genius genes.
02:10:41.000I mean I was in student council, but I'm a much more cool person than a lot of these nerdy types I have a lot more depth than your average You know, whatever your average GOP young Republican, right?
02:11:00.000I've got the street chat posts, I've got the receipts, you know, and people can pretend all they like that they don't like me now, but I was the shit back in high school.
02:12:08.000Well, I don't want to dox you, but you, but you remind me very much of that guy.
02:12:15.000I got the same like energy the same vibe so I don't know if you know I'm talking about I think you actually would be I think you're funny I think you would make it but probably not you know for obvious reasons maybe not a great career move but thanks for the ninja guineas I think but I think like I said you remind me of that one guy
