00:05:10.000And people don't realize what they have.
00:05:15.000And then nowadays, I am so upset that the things we did and the things we fought for and the boys that died for us, it's all gone down the drain.
00:05:30.000Our country's gone to hell in a handbasket.
00:05:35.000We haven't got the country we had when I was raised.
00:07:13.000This country is being ripped apart and raped and looted.
00:07:18.000We're being slowly poisoned and, in some cases, quickly murdered and assassinated.
00:07:24.000And we're killing ourselves every day, inadvertently, with the kinds of things that we eat and breathe and drink and see.
00:07:32.000People have got to start to radically begin to obey their conscience and tell the truth and do the right thing.
00:07:40.000People have got to start to get courageous.
00:07:43.000And this is the time for everybody to turn and look to God and to pray and to ask for strength and to ask for wisdom to get through this time and to transform and sanctify this country.
00:07:57.000And the alternative is that there will be no country.
00:08:00.000Is it really only as big as low gas prices?
00:08:04.000Is it really only so big as bringing inflation and gas prices and the corporate tax rate back down?
00:08:11.000It's not about waiting for someone to come in and change the policy and make it better.
00:08:15.000It's a personal decision that we all have to make to become soldiers of Christ.
00:08:44.000My own narrative is not one of some sudden, looming bolt of lightning out of the blue.
00:08:49.000It was a slow and steady, unrelenting stream of blips and blinks, glimmers and glares, low beams and high beams of light, some of which I did not want to see.
00:09:04.000And then finally, a point of no return reckoning.
00:09:14.000I think it was because I fiercely came out during the Greupel Wars of 2019 when so many of these brave young men were on college campuses challenging the likes of Zio Schill, Dan Crenshaw, questioning him about his undying loyalty and,
00:09:29.000of course, defending Nick Fuentes and so many of the stars of the burgeoning America First movement who, through an increasing amount of activism, are really going to ensure America is a nation of believers, dreamers, and strivers that is being led by a group of censors, critics, and cynics.
00:09:56.000These interests have rigged our political and economic system for their exclusive benefit.
00:13:32.000But I would call myself something like a Christian futurist instead, because Jesus Christ was our past before any of us were born or conceived.
00:13:43.000Jesus Christ is our present now, and Jesus Christ is our future after we die.
00:15:05.000*music* *music* *music* *music* *music* *music* You say that I'm bad, fuck I'm crazy, I'm weird Bitch, I'm back up, I'm back up On my, on my diamonds, girl, you see these diamonds Girl, you see these jet, you know I'm different climbers

00:16:32.000All y'all drunk inside this life, that world, y'all get it Runnin' back up every weekend Now you see I'm run off on the tape, man You say that I'm bad for no reason I'm bitch, I'm better I'm better I'm better I'm better I'm better I'm better Lawrence, I found something really interesting
00:16:56.000In 2016, Donald Trump vowed that the United States would buy and, more importantly, hire American But in June of 2024, during the All In podcast hosted by his donor, David Sachs, he committed that he would not only expand work visas, but he would staple green cards to them I cannot support this
00:17:26.000And I will not encourage my followers to turn out in November to vote for this or campaign for this.
00:17:34.000It is not an unreasonable demand to say that we will not vote for a candidate that promises to import more legal immigrants.
00:17:44.000And it is not unreasonable because for the first time in 20 years, it is the majority opinion that there are too many legal immigrants coming into the country.
00:20:20.000I want you to- I'm sorry, Mr. Puentes.
00:20:22.000I should have supported Groyper War II. Years
00:26:18.000from now, some of them may look back and ask themselves whether they've made the right choice, whether they've made the most of the opportunities they've been given.
00:31:46.000Our movement is about replacing a failed and corrupt political establishment with a new government controlled by you, the American people.
00:32:11.000The Washington establishment and the financial and media corporations that fund it exist for only one reason, to protect and enrich itself.
00:32:22.000The establishment has trillions of dollars at stake in this election.
00:32:26.000For those who control the levers of power in Washington and for the global special interest, they partner with these people that don't have your good in mind.
00:32:36.000Our campaign represents a true existential threat.
00:32:45.000This is not simply another four-year election.
00:32:48.000This is a crossroads in the history of our civilization that will determine whether or not we, the people, reclaim control over our government.
00:33:00.000The political establishment that is trying to stop us is the same group responsible for our disastrous trade deals.
00:33:12.000And economic and foreign policies that have bled our country dry.
00:33:19.000The political establishment has brought about the destruction of our factories and our jobs as they flee to Mexico, China, and other countries all around the world.
00:33:30.000It's a global power structure that is responsible for the economic decisions that have robbed our working class, stripped our country of its wealth, and put that money into the pockets of a handful of large corporations and political entities.
00:33:46.000This is a struggle for the survival of our nations.
00:33:55.000This election will determine whether we're a free nation or whether we have only the illusion of democracy, but are in fact controlled by a small handful of global special interests rigging the system, and our system is rigged.
00:36:44.000We will not surrender our We are done with their distorted visions for America It's time to start talking about greatness for our country again We want our country to be great again We want our country to be respected Action
00:37:29.000As long as we are led by politicians who will not put America first, then we can be assured that other nations will not treat America with respect, the respect that we then we can be assured that other nations will not treat
00:43:23.000My own narrative is not one of some sudden, booming bolt of lightning out of the blue.
00:43:28.000It was a slow and steady, unrelenting stream of blips and blinks, glimmers and glares, low beams and high beams of light, some of which I did not want to see.
00:43:43.000And then finally, a point of no return reckoning.
00:43:53.000I think it was because I fiercely came out during the Griper Wars of 2019 when so many of these brave young men were on college campuses challenging the likes of Zio Schill, Dan Crenshaw, questioning him about his undying loyalty and, of course, defending Nick Fuentes and so many of the stars of the burgeoning America First movement who, through an increasing amount of activism, are really going to ensure the future and the success of that.
00:44:24.000Alexander the Great, Donald Trump, we're all cut from the same cloth, and that cloth is very, very large.
00:47:21.000Our featured story tonight, we're going to be talking all about the brand new immigration policy of this second Trump administration.
00:47:32.000Yesterday we covered the inauguration speech and ceremony.
00:47:37.000During our show last night we went into a little bit of detail on the new executive orders.
00:47:43.000Today is technically the first day of the Trump administration, at least the first full day.
00:47:50.000And we have some idea of how all of this is going to start to take shape.
00:47:56.000And specifically tonight, I want to talk about a couple of things related to immigration.
00:48:02.000Yesterday, President Trump passed an executive order which would revoke the automatic birthright citizenship, which is conferred upon illegal immigrants who are born on the soil.
00:48:17.000We'll talk about whether that's going to happen.
00:48:21.000Obviously, it is going to be legalized.
00:48:26.000Litigated in the Supreme Court, or adjudicated, I should say.
00:48:29.000It was challenged by 22 U.S. states and a number of cities as well.
00:48:36.000They claim it's unconstitutional and violates the 14th Amendment.
00:48:42.000And we'll talk about the basis of the challenge.
00:48:45.000We'll talk about the legal basis of the executive order and whether or not that's ever going to happen.
00:48:51.000And spoiler alert, I don't think that is going to work out.
00:49:58.000I've talked about it a little bit on my Telegram channel.
00:50:02.000But for all the talk of mass deportations, and in particular, there was a specific promise that was made during the presidential transition.
00:50:13.000They said that deportations would begin on day one.
00:55:37.000I'm going to try my best to be fair to Donald Trump and to the administration.
00:55:43.000But I also said that my priorities are the demographic change and addressing that and the chief obstacle to our sovereignty in the country, which is the state of Israel and the capture of our institutions by organized Jewry.
00:56:02.000And I think that on those two fronts, Trump is woefully insufficient, de-radicalizing us, and as a matter of fact, actually allied with our enemies.
00:56:13.000And I actually want to talk a little bit about that before I get into the news.
00:56:17.000Before I do, though, remember to smash the follow button here on Rumble to get a notification whenever I go live.
00:56:26.000Before we get into the news of the day, I want to put something else out there, Kind of adding on to my thoughts from last night that are general about this incoming Trump administration and my feelings on the state of the MAGA movement.
00:56:55.000I did not encourage my followers to vote for Trump.
00:56:58.000I have been hypercritical of Trump throughout the transition and I've been critical of Trump since he took office yesterday.
00:57:05.000I will continue to be critical of Trump.
00:57:08.000And I've noticed something, which is that throughout the election and throughout the transition and over the past couple of days, I have been attacked by people for being too negative.
00:58:36.000It was attended by the richest people in the world.
00:58:39.000It was attended by Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Sundar Pichai.
00:58:47.000Elon Musk, all of the Democrat presidents, they weren't probably happy with what they heard, but regardless, the ADL was defending Elon Musk yesterday.
00:59:45.000Because my job on this show as the standard bearer of America First is to discuss the news and to provide insight about what is conducive to putting America First and what is not.
01:00:05.000It actually doesn't factor into my thinking all that much how much of what I am saying Is positive or negative towards the government?
01:00:19.000My job on the show is to articulate the America First vision.
01:00:24.000And being that it is a political show and a current events show, my job is to talk about whether in these times the MAGA movement, the Trump presidency, Trump campaign are living up to the America First principles.
01:00:44.000If they're not doing that, then I'm going to talk about that as much as they're not doing it.
01:00:52.000If Donald Trump were running a campaign that were extremely America first, this show would be very positive.
01:01:00.000Since he is not, the show is very negative.
01:04:12.000The demographic transition happening globally, the glut of foreigners pouring into the country illegally and legally happens to represent the greatest existential threat to our way of life, our civilization, the glut of foreigners pouring into the country illegally and legally happens to represent the
01:04:38.000I have to have a negative sentiment about this reality.
01:05:07.000When there is a call for a moratorium, when there is a serious discussion about immigration, not as a law enforcement problem, as a matter of illegal and legal immigration, not as an economic problem, as a matter of whether they're taxable or not.
01:05:25.000But their identity, who they are, the number of immigrants is too high.
01:05:30.000When the conversation gets there in some indeterminate future date, then I will be happy.
01:05:39.000But 10 years has gone by, and the conversation is not only not getting better, it's not even staying the same, it's getting worse.
01:05:49.000Trump is more in favor of immigration now than he was 10 years ago.
01:05:55.000After all the fighting, all the sacrifices, the victories, the mandate, the supposed awakening and red-pilling, liberalization of speech on the internet, and we're actually fortifying these arbitrary distinctions about illegal and legal immigrants, we're defending the importation of Indians to take the good jobs.
01:08:25.000I'd like to say something else about this.
01:08:28.000So in the first place, it is completely the wrong way of thinking about things to judge if we're getting a certain amount of good feelings and bad feelings, if we're getting a certain amount of sentimentality that makes us feel good or sentimentality that makes us feel bad.
01:10:22.000For example, the birthright citizenship executive order.
01:10:26.000Repealing birthright citizenship is something that I support.
01:10:30.000It is also something that is completely unrealistic.
01:10:35.000And it is unrealistic to expect that it will be delivered by an executive order alone.
01:10:42.000More likely than not, the Supreme Court will not only not redefine the 14th Amendment to deny illegal immigrant citizenship, although I think that is a little bit more debatable, but the Supreme Court definitely will not recognize the president's authority to redefine the 14th Amendment through an executive order.
01:11:20.000The border, I assume, will be secured in very short order and the amount of apprehensions at the southern border will decline precipitously and that is a good thing.
01:11:32.000However, although that is good and although that will be implemented, let's consider that Once again, we have been on this journey for 10 years.
01:11:44.000Illegal immigration hit record highs under Trump's first term in office.
01:11:49.000They exploded to unprecedented highs in Biden's term in office.
01:11:55.00010 million illegals came here in four years.
01:11:58.000Given the context of that, is merely closing the border adequate at this point in time?
01:12:11.000Closing the border would have been adequate 20 years ago, 10 years ago.
01:12:18.000After record high illegal immigration under Trump and then unprecedented record high illegal immigration under Biden, closing the border is a bare minimum.
01:12:34.000For a candidate that won in a landslide, expanded his electoral college victory, won the popular vote, an historic mandate for a Republican, and on the first day in office, it's only closing the border?
01:12:50.000And the reason for that is because the political will behind this administration that animated the campaign is coming from Wall Street and Silicon Valley.
01:13:04.000And they care far less about the foreign-born population problem than they do about their own regulatory and economic problems.
01:13:15.000That is why we're going to get mere executive actions.
01:13:21.000That is why the follow-through will be less than on other items.
01:13:28.000That's because in spite of the popular mandate, this administration will not move heaven and earth to deny birthright citizenship, to deport tens of millions of people, to do the other things.
01:13:41.000And that is because of the character of this administration.
01:13:53.000This administration and the people in it are acutely aware that their political base wants a more radical immigration policy than they are willing to give.
01:14:05.000And so they cynically and in a calculated way give out rhetoric that we like on that issue and they create these gestures.
01:14:20.000They give the appearance that they're doing more than they are on these issues to placate us so that we will vote for them, so that they could carry on the real business that matters to them, which is the supercomputers, the AI, which is the expansion of the state of Israel, which is every other thing.
01:14:42.000And so, returning to the original subject, can we simply say, call balls and strikes?
01:14:50.000Add up all of the headlines, press releases, names of the bills, and weigh them.
01:15:14.000They have their own reasons for being there.
01:15:18.000And whether we support it as a whole depends upon other considerations.
01:15:26.000Not just whether they're going to give us a headline or a press release or make some gesture, which again, in isolation, in a vacuum, might be something that we like, but when taken together, we recognize does not represent the movement that is going to deliver the victory.
01:15:46.000And this is hard for people to understand, but that is how we have to think.
01:15:52.000So, for example, yesterday, a broader example.
01:15:57.000When you consider everything that has happened, the journey that we've been on, 10 years, fighting a pitched battle of what should have been nationalism versus globalism, learning from our mistakes from the first term, battling the lawfare, almost being killed, me and him, the sacrifices that have been made.
01:16:17.000Is it really so stellar that we're listing among the executive actions that they withdrew from the World Health Organization and put bureaucrats back in the workplace?
01:18:30.000And we should want that, and we should say that we want that, and it's not needlessly negative to say that we want that, and we're not happy settling for less.
01:19:29.000Disobeyed, used misdirection, and before we knew it, we lost the House and it was over.
01:19:35.000And by the time Trump got control of the personnel office, the pandemic started and it was 170 million mail-in ballots.
01:19:49.000So if you are complacent, if you are sitting there grinning like an idiot because a paid shill told you that This is what victory looks like.
01:20:35.000And I don't see how we can do that if we're not deporting lots of people and if we're not stopping them from coming in, even if we call them legal.
01:20:48.000But yeah, maybe I got those talking points from Michelle Obama.
01:20:53.000Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg, thankfully, are here to protect you from that.
01:25:50.000there every single last one is going back i didn't vote for trump because he isn't an absolute aryan soldier only emperor baron who will restore a white imperium worldwide no but that's just jokes But we're just having a good...
01:27:49.000And anyone telling you settle for less, anyone telling you purity spiral, anything like that, is being paid to tell you to settle for less so that they can get what they really want.
01:28:05.000And that's the idea in the most simplified form.
01:28:29.000I'm not going to be Jack Posobiec and wipe your smelly poo butt and pat you on the head and tell you it's going to be okay.
01:28:38.000But we have our first big disappointment.
01:28:41.000We were told throughout the past month.
01:28:44.000By Tom Holman, the border czar, who is allegedly super-based and effective, that the mass deportations would begin on day one, the first morning of the Trump administration.
01:28:58.000He said that there would be ICE raids in Chicago and New York City.
01:29:05.000He visited Chicago in January and said on day one, we don't care about the mayor, we don't care about the governor.
01:30:16.000It says, quote, after weeks of preparation by Chicago's immigrant communities and a weekend of fear spurred by multiple reports that the city would be the site of the first major deportation raids of the new administration, there were no reports of immigration enforcement on Tuesday.
01:30:39.000President Donald Trump has promised what he calls the largest domestic deportation operation in American history, and Chicago has been in the administration's sights.
01:30:51.000Rapid responders patrolling the streets looking for signs of raids or arrests said they saw no activity but warned that the threat of deportations continues.
01:31:03.000Immigrant raids that were expected to target major sanctuary cities immediately after President Donald Trump's inauguration had largely failed to materialize as of Tuesday evening.
01:31:15.000The Department of Homeland Security said Tuesday it was ending a policy that restricted immigration and customs enforcement agents' ability to arrest undocumented people at or near so-called sensitive locations such as schools, houses of worship, and hospitals.
01:31:33.000Trump's border czar Tom Homan told Fox News on Tuesday that there would be targeted enforcement action, which is similar to what ICE already does throughout the country every day.
01:31:45.000NBC News asked Homan how these operations would be different than that.
01:31:50.000Homan said we have more people assigned, although he declined to say how many people had been assigned.
01:33:43.000And I believe that ICE... We'll eventually deport more people.
01:33:49.000I think that's a safe bet that ICE will spin up these deportations, and I think we will see more deportations under Trump than we did under Biden.
01:33:59.000So by no means am I saying that there will never be any enforcement or that the enforcement won't be greater than it was under Biden.
01:37:17.000There is a very good chance that Trump loses the midterms.
01:37:21.000And when Trump loses the midterm elections, when he loses control of the House, there goes your appropriations for ICE. Your two-vote majority most likely will not grow.
01:37:35.000Almost certainly it will fall below the threshold for a majority.
01:37:38.000And then you don't get appropriations.
01:37:42.000So we're talking about between the time when ICE gets the money they need, if they get the money they need, we're talking about a year, year and a half, before the house is in jeopardy and our ability to give ICE more money is totally compromised?
01:37:58.000We're talking about a year and a half window where ICE can get the resources it needs for like a year to carry out deportations.
01:38:31.000If there is ever enforcement from ICE, it's not only going to be the sanctuary cities.
01:38:37.000It's not only going to be the Democratic mayors and governors.
01:38:40.000It's not only going to be challenged in the courts.
01:38:43.000There won't just be a blitzkrieg push in the media.
01:38:49.000But mark my words, the more liberal Silicon Valley oligarchs like Sean McGuire and like the All In podcast, if it comes to it, they will be speaking out against it as well.
01:39:02.000I think Republicans will have more difficulty than they think getting appropriations from ICE. I don't think it's impossible, but I think it will be difficult.
01:39:10.000And insofar as ICE deportations are a function of that money that must go through that 220-vote majority, I think it's dubious at best that we're going to see enough resources for millions of deportations.
01:39:24.000So this is going to be a lot more difficult than they're telling us.
01:39:29.000It's going to be a lot more difficult than they're letting on.
01:39:33.000If ICE starts to enforce, there will be pushback from society.
01:39:38.000It will constrain Congress's ability to appropriate the money.
01:39:43.000Republicans really don't even have the votes to get the money, most likely, if the Democrats make a big enough stink.
01:39:51.000And so if this is going to happen, we need all hands on deck.
01:39:56.000There needs to be a serious political will.
01:39:59.000It needs to push the money through Congress.
01:40:03.000It needs to back ice up when they try to deprive Trump of all political capital for carrying these deportations through, for carrying them out.
01:40:15.000And that's not going to happen if we get complacent and say, oh, it'll happen tomorrow.
01:45:15.000So, if you believed that Trump would do it, then you're on the right side of history, right?
01:45:23.000When Trump was promising this stuff a few weeks ago, If you said, I don't believe it's going to happen, you are a black pillar, you're demoralizing us, you're negative.
01:45:33.000If you believed it, you're a white pillar, you're loyal, you're with Trump, you're a winner, you're serious.
01:45:41.000When Trump doesn't follow through, whatever you want to say about it, they didn't follow through.
01:45:47.000Maybe they'll do it next week, but they didn't do it today.
01:46:35.000And now that he's reiterating it when in office, and we're proven right, and they were proven wrong, and we say, yeah, hey guys, this is pretty bad.
01:46:45.000They say, oh, come on, you're just so negative.
01:46:51.000So when we don't believe their promises were the bad guys, when they break their promises and we call it out, we're still the bad guys.
01:50:41.000Then they started to say, well, you know, the first wave of deportations isn't going to be super massive because, you know, we just don't have the money.
01:50:50.000Then they said, we're going to start to target raids.
01:50:53.000Well, maybe not the first day, maybe later.
01:52:40.000We have in the United States what is called birthright citizenship, automatic birthright citizenship.
01:52:47.000It means that anybody that is born on the land, literally, the legal term is on the soil.
01:52:55.000If you come out of your mother's womb within the United States, it doesn't matter if you're here legally, illegally, if you're visiting, if you're a tourist, if you're here on a visa, you're foreign national, you automatically get citizenship.
01:53:11.000And this is because of the 14th Amendment.
01:53:14.000And the 14th Amendment was supposed to apply to freed slaves.
01:53:20.000Even though slaves were technically not considered citizens because they were property, since slavery ended, because they were born on the land, they get the benefits of citizenship.
01:53:36.000It was passed with a number of other constitutional amendments in succession, with the 13th Amendment, with other amendments, and they were meant to go together and it was meant to apply really for that population.
01:53:48.000But it was interpreted by the Supreme Court in a number of cases to mean anyone born on the soil.
01:53:56.000Now, the case history is a little bit complex because technically the specific issue of illegal aliens has never been adjudicated.
01:54:07.000The issue of a foreign national having a child on the soil has been addressed, but not someone who is here illegally, an illegal alien.
01:54:19.000There's no guidance from the Supreme Court.
01:54:21.000But the legal standard that we have through Supreme Court cases is that any human being born on the land is a citizen.
01:54:30.000But technically, illegals having kids has not been addressed.
01:54:36.000And so this has been very controversial because, of course, these illegal aliens come here and it's like they bring the football into the end zone and now they're home free.
01:54:48.000They literally leap across the border, they have a kid, and the child gets citizenship, which is such a valuable commodity, and it's almost too stupid to believe it's even real.
01:55:01.000That an extremely powerful and serious and rich and smart country like the United States has such an insane way of doing things.
01:55:10.000That'd be like saying if you go into a store and you steal a bunch of merchandise, but you get out of the parking lot, you can't get arrested.
01:55:43.000Citizenship in the United States of America is extremely valuable.
01:55:48.000Because if you're a citizen, this is like a voucher to get public education, to get welfare, to get social security, to get Medicare, to get health care, to get food stamps, to get...
01:56:00.000To be able to attend a university, to live in the greatest country in the world, to have constitutional rights.
01:56:06.000This is like an unbelievably valuable commodity, especially being a peasant from like Central America.
01:56:12.000If you're from like Guatemala and now suddenly you're a citizen of the United States of America, it is so valuable and they're effectively stealing it.
01:56:21.000You can get citizenship by paying a lot of money, by investing a lot of money, by having a skill, by waiting in line.
01:56:29.000Or you can, your parent could leap across the border and you're born here.
01:57:13.000But he passed an executive order saying that anybody that is born.
01:57:18.000To an illegal alien or even someone on a visa can no longer be considered a citizen and is therefore an illegal alien, which is a pretty sweeping reinterpretation of the 14th Amendment.
01:57:47.000As of today, this executive order has been challenged by 22 U.S. states and a few U.S. cities.
01:57:55.000They say that the president cannot determine who is a citizen and who isn't, and they also say that this is in contravention of the 14th Amendment.
01:58:04.000There is an extremely good chance that the Supreme Court will throw this out because the executive branch cannot reinterpret citizenship in the 14th Amendment.
01:58:16.000And there's a very good chance that the Supreme Court will strike it down because they will uphold birthright citizenship for illegal aliens according to the letter of the law of the 14th Amendment.
01:58:29.000And all you have to do is look at the composition of the court.
01:58:47.000And I'll read the story about some of the challenges, then I'll get into kind of the bigger problem with this.
01:58:52.000It says, quote, San Francisco and Washington,
01:59:17.000D.C., challenged the order in federal district court in Massachusetts, arguing that birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment is automatic and that neither the president nor even Congress has the constitutional authority to revise it.
01:59:33.000Four other states filed a second lawsuit in the Western District of Washington.
01:59:39.000Nick Brown, the attorney general in Washington, said Mr. Trump's order would deny citizenship.
01:59:44.000To 150,000 newborns every single year.
01:59:49.000On Monday in the opening hours of his second term as president, Mr. Trump signed an order declaring that future children born to illegal aliens would no longer be treated as citizens, and the order would extend to the children even of some mothers in the country legally but temporarily, like foreign students or tourists.
02:00:07.000Mr. Trump's executive order asserts that the children of non-citizens The order flies in the face of 100 years of legal precedent when the courts and executive branch interpreted the amendment as guaranteeing citizenship to every baby born in the United States, regardless of their parents' legal status.
02:00:35.000The courts recognize only a few exceptions.
02:00:38.000There are signs the judiciary could be divided on the issue.
02:00:43.000Judge James Ho, who Trump appointed to the Fifth Circuit, has been more sympathetic to some of Mr. Trump's arguments.
02:00:51.000The order on birthright citizenship does not take effect for 30 days, and the timing means that the executive branch can work through how to implement the order while the courts decide on its legality.
02:01:05.000So here is the problem with this executive order, and it's not even really a problem.
02:01:21.000There is a very high chance, I would say almost a certainty, that this will not stand.
02:01:27.000Like I said, either because it came from the executive branch or because the Supreme Court will not overturn precedent on the 14th Amendment.
02:02:19.000And I think they could do it if there was a political will.
02:02:24.000And I think that if the right justices were appointed to the Supreme Court, obviously they could change the law.
02:02:31.000I think that neither of those things will happen either.
02:02:34.000So if we're assessing the likelihood of what's going to happen in this term, The executive order has a nearly 0% chance of changing the policy.
02:02:45.000The odds that Trump will pass a law through Congress, I think, are maybe slightly higher than that, but still in the single digits.
02:02:53.000The odds that that law would pass these Trump-appointed judges, I think, is also considerably low.
02:03:02.000A lot of people looked at this executive order and said, this is amazing, and I think it's good.
02:03:07.000I support what it's pointed towards, but what are the odds that this is a gesture that will not actually change the policy and maybe really has no intention of actually seriously changing the policy, but rather is meant to serve as a favorable headline?
02:03:55.000The bigger context, it seems more likely that this is a gesture and sort of an unserious proposal than it is a major initiative coming from the White House.
02:04:26.000These are extraordinary complications that limit what we're able to do.
02:04:31.000And so that's why I look at this executive order and I say there's a much greater chance this is a jester than it is actually following through.
02:04:40.000And that's why I'm not all that excited about it.
02:04:43.000If there was something extraordinary in here that Trump could actually do with executive action, if Trump could somehow marshal Capitol Hill to pass a bill doing this, I'd be a lot more excited.
02:04:55.000I'm trying to give you scenarios where this would be very positive, but this seems sort of like a throwaway.
02:08:22.000Yeah, they was sort of talking about it for a year in the open.
02:08:26.000Pellegrino sent $5 could have never trusted a guy who wouldn't give you his book list unless you paid five bucks, let alone answer with music.
02:08:31.000He listens to when you asked him seriously, what was that about?
02:17:23.000You know, but look, I'm going to say, So I was in a group chat with Pariah the doll, and here was the disappointment.
02:17:32.000And by the way, I was there because it's really a BAP group chat.
02:17:36.000It wasn't even Pariah's, it's a BAP group chat.
02:17:40.000My right hand of God, there's like a dozen trannies in the BAP sphere, and they go to all the parties at Sovereign House, and they go to the party in Austin, and this must be studied as well.
02:17:56.000We were like, oh, you're in a tranny group chat.
02:17:58.000It's like, no, I was in a BAP group chat.
02:18:00.000It's just filled with trannies because BAP is a tranny lover.
02:18:03.000Anyway, but I'm in the group chat and you know what's disappointing?
02:18:08.000It's like at the end of the day, these people in New York, these people in New York with their vocal fry and everything, they're just not that fucking interesting.
02:18:25.000Dasha and the trannies and the faggots that are in that scene, they're just fucking retarded.
02:18:37.000And like, you know, they think they're saying the most profound, oh, we're artists, we're, this is a hip, dynamic, progressive, right-wing scene.
02:18:49.000And then you actually see what they're saying and thinking and they're saying things like, Leftism only wants to destroy, and it's like, I didn't know that.
02:19:14.000It's literally gay and trans Jews spewing like...
02:19:19.000This Harry Jaffa fucking trash about like a reconstituted founding in 1860 and like this neoliberal bullshit that they're pushing with the IC, SCP and Israel.
02:19:32.000You know, the Milton Friedman, like Mont Pelerin stuff.
02:19:36.000Like, dude, been there, done that, bought the motherfucking t-shirt, libertarian moment past 10, 15 years ago.
02:19:48.000Basically, you're gay, you're Jewish, you're not as smart or interesting as you think you are.
02:22:32.000I'll give you like, I don't know if I want to go there, but like, look, if there were a scene that were more liberal and more progressive, but that was interesting, I'd say, okay, now you have my attention.
02:23:01.000Certain leftists, the ones that actually have interesting ideas and things to say.
02:23:09.000You know, like it's actually worth reading someone like Alistair McIntyre.
02:23:14.000It's actually worth reading like, I don't want to, I'm going to gatekeep some of my sources, but it's actually worth reading like certain people.
02:23:25.000But this shit, like it's not worth reading.
02:23:29.000So I can tolerate – I actually could get along with liberals and progressives.
02:23:35.000I could get along with Bernie bros provided that they actually have ideas.
02:23:40.000I cannot get along with like – it's almost actually worse if they just have these like Ben Shapiro tier talking points but they think that they're like a cutting edge like right winger.
02:23:51.000Like, oh, we're going to signal like we're fascists.
02:27:04.000Twitter censorship under Trump is significantly worse than it was under Biden.
02:27:06.000On crypto Twitter, it's common knowledge that you can pay Twitter employees to ban or unban accounts, ranging anywhere from $1.10k, $1.30k.
02:27:11.000They permanently ban GBH, Mitch, Retardio, and more, and the bans have nonsensical reasons.
02:27:16.000People who talk about this are also banned.
02:29:25.000I think that maybe that's just saving face because he got thrown out of Doge.
02:29:29.000I mean, clearly it wasn't working for one reason or another, either his PR because of his tweet or it was legitimately couldn't get along in the group.
02:29:39.000But I think, I mean, maybe he's running for governor, but I think there's a really good chance that was just a face-saving way to bow out because sort of a catastrophic crash out.
02:29:50.000And it's not a good look for Trump either.
02:30:50.000You should up your minimum for reading super chats to $10 so you stop having to read dumbass suggestions like this smoth. - Hmm, good idea. - Catholic Confederate Oh.
02:32:57.000I'm just trying to make a difference out here, you know?
02:33:00.000It's difficult because I don't have a ton of resources or allies these days because...
02:33:08.000Man, I mean, the winds have really shifted against radicalism and in favor of the center, but somebody has to hold down the forward until we get another turn on the cycle, but I appreciate it, man.
