America First - Nicholas J. Fuentes - GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN IMMINENT??? House GOP Threatens To DESTROY McCarthy | America First Ep. 1220GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN IMMINENT??? House GOP Threatens To DESTROY McCarthy

00:00:06.000 And I'm addicted to the serotonin rush.

00:00:10.000 Just eat a Big Mac you stupid bitch!

00:00:33.000 Woo!

00:01:09.000 One person raised his voice.

00:01:12.000 The teacher couldn't believe it.

00:01:15.000 The classroom couldn't believe it either.

00:01:19.000 But in the end, he had logic on his side.

00:01:27.000 And at the end of the day... Americanism, not globalism, will be our credo!

00:01:36.000 It's going to be only America first.

00:01:41.000 America first.

00:01:45.000 The American people will come first once again.

00:02:11.000 America First!

00:06:24.000 Good evening everybody.

00:06:25.000 You're watching America First.

00:06:26.000 My name is Nicholas J. Fuentes.

00:06:28.000 We have a great show for you tonight.

00:06:30.000 Very excited to be back with you here tonight on Tuesday.

00:06:33.000 We have a lot to talk about tonight.

00:06:35.000 Lots to get into.

00:06:36.000 Big show!

00:06:38.000 Our featured story tonight, we're talking about the imminent government shutdown, and this has been brewing for a long time.

00:06:46.000 We've talked about it a little bit in passing over the last couple weeks, but we're reaching a deadline here.

00:06:53.000 September 30th is the deadline for Congress to pass a stopgap measure that will fund the government while they weigh in on 12 separate appropriations bills.

00:07:05.000 And I'll explain all the complexity later.

00:07:08.000 But the big story is that the shutdown will come not from regular House Republicans, but specifically a coalition of 15 Freedom Caucus members, including Matt Gaetz, who seems to be leading the charge.

00:07:23.000 And it seems like he's going to lead the Republicans in the House into a situation where they cannot pass any appropriations bill and will have a major government shutdown.

00:07:34.000 The alternative is that the Speaker, Kevin McCarthy, will have to side with the Democrats to pass a bill with no preconditions.

00:07:44.000 They're calling it a clean CR, a clean continuing resolution that makes no changes to anything.

00:07:52.000 And they'll have to caucus with the Democrats in order to get the government funded, which would be a pretty big catastrophe PR-wise for McCarthy.

00:08:01.000 So we'll talk all about that tonight.

00:08:03.000 It's kind of a complex situation, but it's really more of the same.

00:08:09.000 It's sort of the same thing that happened earlier in the year.

00:08:13.000 So we'll see what the outcome's gonna be, but it looks like finally they're putting the screws to McCarthy, so that's the good news.

00:08:20.000 We'll also be talking tonight about new charges against Ray Epps, who has been accused by Revolver and Fox News of being a FBI agent undercover on January 6th.

00:08:32.000 For years, they said that he was an unindicted or unidentified co-conspirator in the riot.

00:08:40.000 And many people said it was peculiar that he seemed to encourage or have foreknowledge of the events of January 6th, but yet he was never charged.

00:08:53.000 And some say that he was even mentioned in some of the complaints against Capitol defendants, although he was never identified by name and never charged.

00:09:05.000 Well, today it kind of puts a hole in some of these conspiracy theories because he was charged for disorderly conduct.

00:09:14.000 And although he never entered the Capitol or committed any other crime, I think it's the first case of somebody who got charged basically for doing nothing.

00:09:24.000 And so we'll talk about his case.

00:09:26.000 I've said for a long time that I'm skeptical that he's an FBI asset.

00:09:33.000 I really am.

00:09:35.000 And...

00:09:38.000 I think it's possible he is, and I think it's likely, well it's confirmed, that there were federal informants there at the Capitol.

00:09:48.000 And you know, they're all over the Proud Boys, they're all over the Three Percenters, the Oath Keepers.

00:09:53.000 Enrique Tarrio, who was just charged and sentenced recently, 22 years, he was an informant years ago, but nevertheless, he had been an informant 10 years ago.

00:10:06.000 But in this case, I'm not 100% convinced.

00:10:10.000 And I also don't think that that narrative is super helpful either.

00:10:14.000 So I want to get into that as well.

00:10:16.000 I know I talked about it at some point last year because basically it wasn't 24 hours after January 6th had resolved before people started up with this narrative.

00:10:32.000 We're good to go.

00:10:42.000 And when the plane landed, of course all the planes in and out of DC that day and the day before was a lot of Trump supporters, a lot of people who were there for the rally on the Ellipse.

00:10:53.000 And I remember getting up to get my bag out of the overhead bin and everything and there were these boomers in front of me and behind me and they're talking amongst each other about what happened and they said, well I heard it was Antifa, I heard that there were

00:11:08.000 People in all black, and they were the ones instigating the violence.

00:11:13.000 And I had like this Larry David moment, I'm like, no!

00:11:16.000 I said, no!

00:11:17.000 People of the Plain, no, we, not we meaning like me, but we meaning like we Trump supporters, that was a Trump supporter phenomenon.

00:11:29.000 I said, and politically, we should own that, in the sense that

00:11:35.000 And I've talked about it before, the contextualization of January 6th, and Vivek has been the only one I've heard ever since give a little bit of a hearing to this idea.

00:11:46.000 I said, the people have been in revolt for a long time.

00:11:51.000 They stole the election.

00:11:53.000 They didn't listen.

00:11:54.000 They robbed us of the vote.

00:11:55.000 Then they robbed us of the process to rectify that.

00:12:00.000 I said, and people there had enough.

00:12:01.000 I said, and we should be proud that America can still do that.

00:12:06.000 That, like, Americans still have that in them.

00:12:10.000 And, of course, I didn't go inside, but I was in that crowd at the Ellipse, and I was on the Capitol Complex, or just outside of it, and I said, we should feel

00:12:24.000 To some extent pleased that America's still capable of producing something like this, although it turned out to be catastrophic in many ways.

00:12:34.000 And, you know, they didn't like that.

00:12:36.000 But anyway, so I want to get into that a little bit.

00:12:40.000 I don't know that this Fed narrative is always the best thing.

00:12:43.000 I feel like, you know, it...

00:12:45.000 In a lot of cases there's truth to it, but by the same token it also can get a little bit destructive in my opinion.

00:12:51.000 Now they just say everything's a fad.

00:12:53.000 If you are not a Fox News guy, you're a fad.

00:12:57.000 You know?

00:12:58.000 And I've been critical of groups like Patriot Front, and like these new guys, this Blood Tribe group, and some others.

00:13:04.000 But it gets to a certain point where you've got guys that are literally, or probably I should say, on the payroll of the government, and they're accusing anybody further to the right of Sean Hannity of being a fed.

00:13:18.000 Or anybody who's not obese is a fed.

00:13:20.000 Anybody who's taking action is a fed.

00:13:24.000 And again, it's not like there's no truth to that, but I think we're pushing it a little bit.

00:13:31.000 So anyway, so we'll get into all that.

00:13:34.000 Before we do though, I want to remind you to smash the follow button here on Cozy.

00:13:38.000 Get a push notification whenever I go live.

00:13:41.000 Follow me on Rumble as well.

00:13:42.000 All my replays are on Rumble throughout the year.

00:13:46.000 And follow me on Telegram.

00:13:48.000 Links are down below for that as well.

00:13:51.000 I think that's everything too.

00:13:56.000 I don't think we have any announcements or no no stories again today you know yesterday I went off again about these people that I encounter but nothing really going on today kind of a slow day I've been reading the new Elon Musk biography like I told you when I went to Barnes & Noble the other day I encountered this NPC

00:14:20.000 Talking to me some blue dot on the Grand Theft Auto map, but I got the Elon Musk biography So I've been reading that but not too much else going on kind of a slow day the other thing Yeah, you know what it is.

00:14:32.000 The one thing that did happen today is I I'm preparing for the show And that's why I was a little bit late.

00:14:39.000 I was gonna be here ten o'clock sharp, but then I got totally sidetracked and

00:14:44.000 Because I go on Unz Review and I'm scrolling through the articles and I see Jim Goad who is sort of like one of my old enemies.

00:14:53.000 He wrote an article about this Oliver Anthony thing.

00:14:56.000 Yeah, we're doing this again.

00:14:58.000 No, but not really.

00:15:00.000 So he does this article about Oliver Anthony and all this.

00:15:04.000 And basically the whole article is just a screed against me.

00:15:07.000 Because him and I had beef years ago.

00:15:11.000 And I guess he never let it go.

00:15:15.000 So I skimmed his article and it's just loaded up with these implicit references to me and my show and what I've been saying about poor people and so on.

00:15:28.000 And sure enough I do command find on my computer and there's like 20 mentions of my name in the comments.

00:15:36.000 Everybody else, so it's not just me, everybody recognized it was basically the piece was a subtweet about me.

00:15:45.000 And I know none of you know who this guy is.

00:15:48.000 He's like a total failure and loser.

00:15:52.000 He was a popular writer, I think, at one point.

00:15:55.000 And there are some prominent people that are fans of his.

00:15:58.000 Tucker Carlson's a fan, and Jared Taylor, and I think Brimelow likes him.

00:16:05.000 But and this is the only thing I'm gonna say because I know we're kind of dwelling on the subject a lot but I think it's a really important point to make and you know I seem to be the only one saying this I don't know that there are any other people that have been as strong in their condemnation of this culture as me since this stupid song came out and started this debate really I think I started the debate though and anyway

00:16:31.000 So the article is doing the usual stuff.

00:16:35.000 It says, oh, you know, the poor white people, we can't blame them because they are victims.

00:16:43.000 The poor white people who we would be snobby towards, white trash, as they're called, he says, well, they're victims of circumstance and poverty made them that way.

00:16:55.000 And we are just too sheltered and insulated, you know, the so-called

00:17:01.000 White snobs who look down on the wignats or skinheads or whoever, oh well we just don't get it and we all need to be on the same page and it's holding us back because we've been divided and only white people hate their own unlike any other group and blah blah blah.

00:17:21.000 And it's like case in fucking point, look at the author of the article.

00:17:26.000 The guy is literally a spiteful mutant.

00:17:29.000 Like, he looks like one.

00:17:32.000 And if you know anything about this writer, who I did an episode of The Weekly Sweat with Beardson, and we had this guy on and we roasted him, the writer here, Jim Goad, and we found out that the guy's like a freak.

00:17:44.000 He was married to some stripper, and then they had an ugly divorce, and he beat the shit out of her, and he married some Jew, and he went to jail for beating her up, and he told the cops he liked it, and then it comes out that he had sex with some black guy when he was a kid, and

00:18:02.000 And the guy's like a militant atheist, and he's one of these Gen X punk rockers, these insufferable Gen X punk rockers that still, in their 60s, can't get over how fucking cool they are with their converse and jeans.

00:18:20.000 It's like you're 60 years old!

00:18:23.000 And they still think they're cool because they use profanity or because they have sex.

00:18:27.000 Really?

00:18:29.000 They STILL can't get over how COOL they are.

00:18:33.000 They're not like their fuddy-duddy parents.

00:18:36.000 They swear.

00:18:37.000 They're edgy.

00:18:39.000 These guys are out there, they don't give a flip about the rules.

00:18:43.000 They're wearing jeans.

00:18:47.000 And anyway, like I said, case in point, and I said it on Telegram before I started the show, here's a perfect example of a guy who I believe has money,

00:18:59.000 I don't know though.

00:19:00.000 But he probably could have money, even if he doesn't.

00:19:05.000 Obviously gifted, obviously a good writer and intelligent, connected, had opportunities, and yet unlike many other people, clearly succumbed to circumstance rather than overcoming it.

00:19:20.000 And what I mean by that is, there are many examples.

00:19:23.000 You look at some of the most successful people in the world today.

00:19:27.000 Some of the most successful white men.

00:19:30.000 And probably the majority of them have a story about how they came from poverty, parents were abusive, they underwent some hardship.

00:19:43.000 That is probably true of at least half or maybe the majority.

00:19:46.000 It's a good percentage.

00:19:48.000 When you go and you read into any of the most successful people or you watch 60 Minutes about them or whatever, it's always a story like that.

00:19:58.000 It's always, you know, they're battling demons from childhood and the dark shadow.

00:20:04.000 How about this fighter that just won the championship recently, this UFC fighter Strickland?

00:20:11.000 We're good to go.

00:20:28.000 And they worked hard, and they raised the bar up.

00:20:31.000 They overcame what should have been their destiny.

00:20:35.000 And then you look at a guy like this, who again is clearly above average intelligence, although I think that's about it, is above average, with an aptitude for writing.

00:20:46.000 I think that's, I think he thinks he's a lot more intelligent than he really is, clearly above average, not really exceeding that, but with an aptitude for writing.

00:20:56.000 And here's a guy who, the little I know about his background, maybe could have had some degree of mainstream success or something.

00:21:03.000 And although he wants to write and say that we should feel pity or sympathy,

00:21:09.000 For the plight of the rural whites or Appalachian whites or so-called white trash or something, because they were destined for this by circumstance, by the system, by the economy, here's a guy that, for no reason other than his own bad decisions, wound up a resentful, seething old guy that nobody's ever heard of.

00:21:36.000 Here's a guy who's 60, other people that are 60, are millionaires, famous, they have leveraged the time that they have had on the earth, their talents, their network, the most booming economy in the history of the world, and they made something of themselves.

00:21:50.000 And here's a guy that despite having the ingredients, and despite even having a start, you could see self-sabotage and blew it up, and would be, and by the way,

00:22:02.000 found himself more content on the outside looking in at his destination his destined destination his arrival point which is born a loser die a loser and more content with that so that he can snicker and sneer from the bottom of the ladder and that's the mentality which is so poisonous that i'm talking about

00:22:26.000 I don't want people that lose in life and then say, well, it's a tough racket.

00:22:34.000 It's a cold world out there.

00:22:37.000 We want people that are going to win no matter what or fail trying.

00:22:42.000 And I have so much more respect for a person that fails trying than someone that never tried at all or somebody that was constantly feeling sorry for themselves or justifying or excusing bad decisions or mediocrity.

00:22:59.000 That's the problem.

00:23:01.000 And so it was pretty incredible because like I said I read this article and I think he was expressing a lot of the sentiment that I hear from people that are critical of me and what I've been saying.

00:23:14.000 And unlike the many people that have been critical that are anonymous or you know we don't know who they are, this guy by giving a voice to it also provided a face to it.

00:23:25.000 And is the crystal clear example of what I'm talking about.

00:23:29.000 Where is that resentment?

00:23:31.000 Where is that critique coming from?

00:23:34.000 It's coming from spiteful, resentful losers.

00:23:38.000 And they're not losers because they don't have.

00:23:41.000 They're not losers because they're genetically weak.

00:23:45.000 You know, because they're dumb necessarily or weak or small or something.

00:23:51.000 They're losers because in their mind they're content with the loss.

00:23:56.000 And there's almost this sense of relief that they get to say, ah, yeah, well, I didn't quite cut it, but that's because the system's rigged.

00:24:06.000 So I don't have those pressures of having gone through trial.

00:24:10.000 I don't have the pressures of being successful, because I'm perfectly content to not have, but excuse it and compensate for it by saying, well, but because it wasn't fair.

00:24:23.000 And here's the big picture.

00:24:26.000 Whites are being genocided on a global scale.

00:24:29.000 That's the big picture for those that are keeping score at home.

00:24:33.000 It's that whites are being genocided everywhere they exist.

00:24:37.000 Everywhere where whites have settlements, permanent settlements.

00:24:42.000 We're good to go.

00:24:59.000 And in one century, we are going to be a small minority of the global population and within all of our own countries.

00:25:07.000 And we will be subject to apartheid, second-class status everywhere we exist.

00:25:13.000 That's what's going on.

00:25:16.000 And here's the point.

00:25:18.000 If whites are going to survive as a diminished and smaller and fledgling group, which is, that's the bright side,

00:25:28.000 We're good to go.

00:25:52.000 And it is so poisonous to our prospects of achieving even that grim scenario when you have white people saying, it's okay if we lose because the world isn't fair.

00:26:06.000 It's okay.

00:26:07.000 We can be content and we should excuse and we should be pitiable towards losers because the world's not fair or because of the economy or because of the rich or because life's not fair.

00:26:22.000 It's not fair.

00:26:23.000 And we were set up to fail.

00:26:25.000 And we are screwed in many ways.

00:26:27.000 And everything arrayed against us appears to be insurmountable.

00:26:34.000 I don't know about you, but nevertheless, defeat is not an option.

00:26:38.000 And we need imaginative, ambitious people that have that kind of indomitable will.

00:26:49.000 And anything other than that is a cancer that has to be destroyed.

00:26:52.000 Anything other than that is just straight poison in our veins.

00:26:56.000 To get an ounce of that in your head, that we can look at ourselves as victims and feel pity, and start to feel sorry for ourselves and let the standards drop and say, throw our arms up in resignation and say, so what if we're a bunch of beer guzzling

00:27:15.000 You know, we're wearing ratty clothes and we're illiterate and stupid and docile.

00:27:21.000 So what?

00:27:24.000 We can't blame ourselves.

00:27:26.000 It wasn't our fault.

00:27:29.000 It was our parents.

00:27:30.000 It was the government.

00:27:31.000 It was the economy.

00:27:35.000 You start to get an ounce of that in your head and it's going to prevent us from having any kind of success with what we're up against.

00:27:41.000 I just don't... I've always said that.

00:27:43.000 I just don't even want to hear that.

00:27:44.000 Whenever anybody starts to make excuses for our people as a group and people start to black pill and they start to say things like, you know, are we going to win?

00:27:56.000 Is it even possible?

00:27:57.000 Oh, it's not worth it.

00:27:58.000 You know, this sort of thing.

00:28:00.000 I just can't hear that.

00:28:02.000 You can't wake up every day and face the odds that we're facing with any kind of self-pity in your system like that.

00:28:10.000 And I'll also add, by the way, it sounds just like the black people.

00:28:17.000 And you know, you look at black people in the society today and it goes without saying, we're not talking about all black people.

00:28:25.000 We're talking about a culture.

00:28:28.000 Which is very prevalent among blacks today and many blacks are into this.

00:28:34.000 You look around at blacks in America today and what are they synonymous with?

00:28:38.000 Like it or don't like it, they're synonymous with indolence, laziness, they don't work hard, they don't do things right, they have no respect for standards, they're not polite, they're inconsiderate, they're indecent.

00:28:51.000 Like, that is the stereotype of black people.

00:28:57.000 And that is true.

00:28:59.000 And black people should want to improve.

00:29:02.000 They should want to improve their image.

00:29:03.000 They should want to improve their lot.

00:29:06.000 But when black people are confronted with these stereotypes or generalizations, they get defensive.

00:29:12.000 And they say things like, oh, well, that's because of slavery.

00:29:15.000 Well, that's because of Jim Crow.

00:29:17.000 Well, that's because of redlining.

00:29:18.000 It's because I'm black, ain't it?

00:29:19.000 It's because I got a last name or I got a name.

00:29:22.000 It's how I'm black.

00:29:24.000 I don't think so.

00:29:45.000 Outcomes is a consequence of black behavior.

00:29:49.000 But there are many so-called white nationalists that will turn on a dime, and with no sense of irony at all, look at the plight of whites when criticized, holes in their shirts, and the same sorts of things.

00:30:01.000 That's why you call it wigger.

00:30:03.000 And they'll say, well, but our jobs were offshored.

00:30:09.000 We were born poor.

00:30:10.000 We don't know any better.

00:30:13.000 With no sense of irony.

00:30:16.000 And that's a problem.

00:30:19.000 And it makes me embarrassed.

00:30:22.000 Because you look at Jews, and Jews are like, look at them over the last century.

00:30:28.000 And I, you know, I have to be honest, it's admirable.

00:30:32.000 As much as I think it's dishonorable, and I think that they worship the devil and so on.

00:30:38.000 When you look at groups like the Mossad, and you look at Israel, look at the odds they were up against.

00:30:43.000 And they did it!

00:30:44.000 And they were a smaller fraction.

00:30:47.000 But they went out there and they said, we will do whatever it takes.

00:30:50.000 We will lie, cheat, steal, kill, terrorism.

00:30:54.000 I'm not saying we should do that sort of thing.

00:30:58.000 But I'm saying they have this mentality of the survival of our people is non-negotiable.

00:31:04.000 It's for our people.

00:31:07.000 And then I look at the sorry state of whites and you got this song going on and I make these comments where it's like, yeah, that's kind of, we want to be like Trump, not like this guy.

00:31:17.000 And people go, oh, you just hate, oh, it's because you just hate whites.

00:31:19.000 You're self-hating.

00:31:20.000 Oh, you think you're better than us, huh?

00:31:22.000 And I'm like, oh my gosh.

00:31:23.000 I'm hearing black people.

00:31:25.000 Oh my gosh.

00:31:25.000 Like, I mean, that's what black people say.

00:31:28.000 Am I going insane?

00:31:30.000 I make this criticism when I hear these whites say, he thinks he's better than us.

00:31:35.000 You know, you hate white people.

00:31:37.000 You just hate us, huh?

00:31:38.000 Well, we are like this for a reason and that's white culture.

00:31:41.000 We like our beer.

00:31:42.000 We like our, you know, we like sagging our pants.

00:31:44.000 I'm like, okay, you know what you sound like right now?

00:31:50.000 So I'm gonna beat it out of white people.

00:31:51.000 I'm going to metaphorically beat it out of them.

00:31:54.000 We got to get that out.

00:31:57.000 No matter who you are, where you come from, you gotta be better.

00:32:00.000 You have to be better.

00:32:01.000 You have to overcome your circumstance.

00:32:04.000 Rich, poor, in the middle.

00:32:06.000 You have to be better than where you started.

00:32:08.000 You can't make excuses for yourself.

00:32:11.000 You gotta be clean.

00:32:12.000 You gotta be educated, intelligent.

00:32:14.000 You gotta be sharp.

00:32:16.000 You gotta be successful.

00:32:18.000 And if you're not, then it should not be for lack of trying.

00:32:24.000 Uh, and there's no excuse for any, any white man in the country does not have an excuse.

00:32:30.000 I'm sorry.

00:32:30.000 I don't want to see another video of white people getting beat up by black people.

00:32:34.000 I don't want to see any more of that.

00:32:36.000 There's no excuse.

00:32:37.000 I don't want to hear people, well, and don't get me wrong, it's not to say that we're disadvantaged.

00:32:41.000 We are.

00:32:42.000 It's not that I don't acknowledge that.

00:32:45.000 But,

00:32:47.000 We're white.

00:32:47.000 We're supposed to overcome that.

00:32:49.000 You can't simultaneously claim the heritage of your ancestors, which includes Columbus and Napoleon and Julius Caesar and so on, and at the same time be and settle for mediocrity.

00:33:03.000 You can't do it.

00:33:06.000 So anyway.

00:33:09.000 So I saw that article.

00:33:10.000 It was too perfect.

00:33:11.000 Like I said, that's why, because I wanted to be on time again.

00:33:14.000 I was here at 10.

00:33:16.000 I was here like 1040 tonight.

00:33:19.000 But I saw this article.

00:33:20.000 I got totally sidetracked.

00:33:21.000 I lost my mind reading that.

00:33:23.000 And of course, he won't even say my name.

00:33:25.000 He's gonna, you know, imply

00:33:28.000 That he's attacking me, which is really noble.

00:33:32.000 But it's this insufferable boomer mind poison.

00:33:36.000 We have to be like the generations before the boomers.

00:33:39.000 No excuses, be a man.

00:33:42.000 It sounds like millennials, Gen Xers, boomers, they all sound the same.

00:33:47.000 It's like, well, but my parents, but the economy.

00:33:52.000 And Zoomers have to be different.

00:33:53.000 Generation Z has to say to themselves, be a man.

00:33:57.000 Take care of business.

00:34:01.000 Anyway, so that's that.

00:34:02.000 I want to move on.

00:34:03.000 I want to get into our first story tonight.

00:34:05.000 We're going to talk about Ray Epps.

00:34:08.000 And the development today is that Ray Epps, who has been roundly condemned as a potential FBI informant at the January 6th riot, he was finally charged by the federal government for disorderly conduct.

00:34:24.000 And this is a story from BBC.

00:34:26.000 It says, quote, A former Trump supporter who was accused of being a federal agent by online conspiracy theorist after he attended the Capitol riot has been charged with disorderly conduct.

00:34:38.000 Ray Epps was pictured outside Congress on January 6th, but said he did not go in.

00:34:43.000 He was captured on several videos around the time of the unrest.

00:34:47.000 In one from the night of January 5th, he was seen shouting and urging people to enter the Capitol building.

00:34:53.000 The following day during the riot itself, Mr. Epps, a former U.S.

00:34:57.000 Marine from Arizona, was seen on another video whispering into the ear of a man who then charged at police lines.

00:35:04.000 In the days after the riot, conspiracy theorists began to circulate online that Mr. Epps was secretly working for the FBI.

00:35:12.000 The theories fed into a wider belief, lacking evidence but common in right-wing circles, that government agents instigated the riot.

00:35:20.000 The rumors started on alternative news outlets and fringe social media accounts and were referenced on mainstream channels such as Fox News, including by former presenter Tucker Carlson.

00:35:31.000 In interviews, Mr. Epps, a former member of the Oath Keepers militia, which had a sizable presence at the riot, denied the allegations.

00:35:39.000 He said he has no ties to law enforcement agencies and that he did not enter the Capitol building.

00:35:45.000 He said he was trying to calm down rather than egg on the man who charged police lines.

00:35:51.000 He also said that he got carried away with his mistaken belief that widespread fraud swayed the election and his support for Mr. Trump.

00:35:59.000 In April, the FBI released a statement to CBS News' 60 Minutes program that said Ray Epps has never been an FBI source or an FBI employee.

00:36:10.000 In July, Mr. Epps sued Fox News over the rumors accusing the network of defamation and claiming he had to close his business and move to Utah due to threats and harassment.

00:36:20.000 So about Ray Epps, I've talked about this before I think I said this last year that I'm not really convinced that he was an FBI informant and I believe that there were federal law enforcement that day and I think they did instigate

00:36:50.000 And I almost would say that I'm certain that that's the case.

00:36:55.000 One, because I believe I saw one of them.

00:36:58.000 I know that I saw at least one.

00:37:01.000 People have called them, uh...

00:37:03.000 I forget the, they call him the something commander, but there was a guy on the media tower, because this was a few weeks before the inauguration, so they had set up a tower for the video cameras for the inauguration, and there was a guy who had somehow scaled that and gotten on top of it, and he was directing everybody to go into the Capitol, which I thought was very suspicious.

00:37:27.000 And I remember seeing it that day, and I remember even that day thinking, this is weird.

00:37:33.000 And he was never identified.

00:37:34.000 He was never doxxed.

00:37:37.000 We still don't know his identity, as far as I know.

00:37:41.000 At the same time, there was also a huge presence from those militia groups, the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, Three Percenters, and all three of them have been infiltrated, and it's well known, by law enforcement for years.

00:37:55.000 Because all three of those groups they attract and they invite law enforcement.

00:38:00.000 The Oath Keepers are all former military law enforcement and there's a sizable membership of the other two that are former veterans or rather veterans or former law enforcement and it's well known that FBI has people in all those groups.

00:38:19.000 So between the guy that was on the tower and these three militias that are totally infiltrated

00:38:25.000 We're good to go.

00:38:45.000 And it's like this guy, when he realized he was being recorded, he flipped and said, oh, it was that guy.

00:38:50.000 And it was a very, I don't know if you saw that, but that was circulating a little while ago.

00:38:54.000 To me, that was very obvious that that was some instigator.

00:38:58.000 So anyway, I think there was definitely an element of that there.

00:39:02.000 I think that it would be impossible for there not to be that presence there at the Capitol.

00:39:11.000 But at the same time, I don't think that Ray Apps was necessarily one of them.

00:39:15.000 I haven't really seen any evidence.

00:39:18.000 And people say, well, he hasn't been charged!

00:39:21.000 It's like, well, you can look online at the more than 1,000 defendants who have been charged in relation to the Capitol, and almost every single one of them, I think it is every single one of them, they were all charged because they trespassed and they were inside the building.

00:39:41.000 They engaged with cops or media.

00:39:44.000 They beat up police officers, assaulted police officers, beat up film crew, or destroyed their equipment.

00:39:51.000 Or it was people that were members of a militia.

00:39:54.000 So, like, Enrique Tarrio wasn't even in the city that day, but he got charged, and that's because he's a leader of the Proud Boys.

00:40:02.000 So, to my knowledge, every single person out of the 1,000 plus that got charged, or nearly all of them, was charged because they were in the building,

00:40:12.000 Assaulted somebody or vandalized something or they were a member or leading a member of or leading a militia group.

00:40:20.000 Rehabs was none of those things.

00:40:23.000 As far as I know, he was not any of those.

00:40:25.000 He wasn't in the building, wasn't a member of a group, and he didn't engage in a violent way with people or property.

00:40:35.000 And I think that's why he wasn't charged.

00:40:37.000 That seems to be the only evidence

00:40:39.000 That he's a Fed, but he's been raised up as like the number one scapegoat of the whole thing.

00:40:45.000 And I would also say, aside from my skepticism that Ray Epps is a Fed, I also don't love the narrative that January 6th was Feds.

00:40:54.000 I know that Revolver pushes that very strongly, and generally speaking I like Revolver and I like the people there.

00:41:03.000 But that's their big thing.

00:41:05.000 They've been fixated on that for years and I think that it's... I think they've done some good journalism surrounding January 6th.

00:41:13.000 But I think the Ray Epps thing is amiss, and I think it's because it sort of downplays what was really going on that day.

00:41:23.000 It sort of strips January 6th of the necessary context.

00:41:27.000 Because the way that I look at January 6th, as somebody who was there, and as somebody who was at all of the preceding Stop the Steal rallies, January 6th was a culmination of five years, six years,

00:41:43.000 Since Donald Trump started running, everybody who has been a Trump supporter since the beginning or around the beginning understands what I'm talking about, which is the fact that we have been systematically screwed out of democracy or out of our representation.

00:42:03.000 Trump came down, his message, his delivery, his presentation became wildly popular, and although he received this mandate to govern, he was systematically screwed during the selection process.

00:42:18.000 And he was screwed once he was in the position to govern the country.

00:42:23.000 He was screwed repeatedly during the election with the spying from the FISA court, and he was screwed by the media, and he was screwed by the party, and with the Billy Bush tape, and with all this stuff.

00:42:35.000 Then he gets elected, and then he gets screwed over when he's in office.

00:42:39.000 He gets screwed by Congressional Republicans, gets screwed over with the COVID pandemic, with the, you know, all the stuff we've been talking about all year.

00:42:49.000 Then he gets obviously cheated out of the election, which although we've sort of accepted it now, we've accepted that Joe Biden is the president and that it was a failure and everything, at that time people were losing their minds.

00:43:04.000 It was outrageous.

00:43:05.000 Like, we had finally gotten a president that represents the people, finally a president who's going to end the wars and bring the manufacturing back and close the borders, and he's still getting resistance from within.

00:43:19.000 Which just went to demonstrate that we have no control over our country and people were furious.

00:43:25.000 And then they throw him out with this bullshit mail-in ballots and everything that happened there.

00:43:33.000 And there's a process to rectify that.

00:43:35.000 Everybody saw what was going on, which is that the mail-in ballots were coming in and they were, in a mathematically impossible way, stacked for Biden.

00:43:44.000 There was a data-driven mathematical analysis of the ballots that were being entered, the so-called mail-in ballots that were being counted a week or two weeks after Election Day, and it found that it was statistically anomalous that so many consecutive votes, or such a high percentage of a given batch, went for Biden.

00:44:08.000 So we saw it happen in real time and it didn't take a mathematician or a statistician to figure that out.

00:44:14.000 They were covering up the windows of the buildings where they were counting the ballots.

00:44:18.000 They were caught on a video camera pulling a suitcase out from under the table.

00:44:24.000 And as we all saw, they stopped the count in the middle of the night and resumed the next morning at 4 a.m.

00:44:30.000 or 3 a.m.

00:44:32.000 And all of a sudden, these margins disappeared.

00:44:34.000 So, then we undertook this process to rectify it the constitutional way, and we were totally shut out by Republican representatives in five Republican-controlled state legislatures.

00:44:48.000 That was the backdrop for January 6th.

00:44:51.000 And finally Trump called people to the Capitol and it was really the point of no return.

00:44:58.000 If the situation wasn't clarified there, Joe Biden would be the president and everything that would come to pass would happen as it has.

00:45:07.000 And I'm a believer that although it was maybe exacerbated by federal law enforcement and there might have been something fishy, a part of me kind of likes to believe that the people went to the Capitol and flipped out.

00:45:23.000 A part of me likes that.

00:45:25.000 A part of me likes the idea that that happened.

00:45:28.000 And I don't necessarily endorse beating up cops or vandalism or things like that when they call it intimidation or terrorism or something.

00:45:40.000 But when I was there I saw hundreds of thousands of people surrounding the Capitol.

00:45:44.000 I had never seen that many people in one place before.

00:45:46.000 Normally you only ever see that in other countries.

00:45:49.000 Normally you would see that in Venezuela.

00:45:52.000 When they have some massive protest a few years ago like when they were going to overthrow Maduro.

00:45:59.000 Or you see it in other countries where they're going to take down a dictator.

00:46:04.000 And so to see hundreds of thousands of red hats and American flags and patriots surrounding the building.

00:46:14.000 And yeah, they were unruly and they couldn't be controlled by the cops, especially after what we had been subjected to the previous year with BLM.

00:46:23.000 For me, I was kind of like, okay, this is actually refreshing.

00:46:27.000 It's actually nice to see that the people cannot be pushed around indefinitely.

00:46:34.000 That, like, there's a limit to how much people will take before they pull up, before they just show up.

00:46:40.000 I think so.

00:47:06.000 For a moment made me think that maybe that wasn't the case and I actually felt good about that and like I said January 6 has its place in this broader narrative.

00:47:17.000 The context for January 6 gives it its significance and rather than run from that or be afraid of that or try to come up with this convoluted conspiracy theory about

00:47:32.000 Oh well it was supposed to just be a what a peaceful protest but then some instigators broke in and they got everybody else to go in and to me it just it takes it and puts that in this weird and obfuscates it in this weird way puts it in a totally weird place.

00:47:55.000 Like what what's the narrative about that?

00:47:57.000 What's the story with that?

00:47:59.000 That they wanted January 6th to happen?

00:48:03.000 I mean, I suppose I can understand the idea that they... it was a setup, it was a trap, so that they could decapitate Trump and everything, but they didn't even really need that, did they?

00:48:15.000 I think that whether they had that or not, they still would have had a mandate to go after Trump.

00:48:19.000 Most of these charges have nothing to do with January 6th.

00:48:23.000 There's been four major rounds of charges, and only one of them has to do specifically with the violence of January 6th, and only some of it within there.

00:48:33.000 You know, because the federal charges about January 6th talk about an effort to defraud the people, and in some ways may have happened regardless of the violence, regardless of what happened that day.

00:48:46.000 I don't know.

00:48:58.000 Whether true or false, whether partially true or mostly true, I feel like it's very convoluted and I think it deprives January 6th of its significance.

00:49:09.000 I feel like we should be building on it rather than scuttling it in this weird way that, by the way, nobody even, I don't even think anybody believes that.

00:49:17.000 I don't even think, I think that most Republicans don't even really care about January 6th.

00:49:24.000 I don't think that they need a story to explain it.

00:49:27.000 I think Trump supporters support Trump no matter what.

00:49:30.000 And the left is never going to be convinced that it was set up and they control the media anyway.

00:49:37.000 So I don't know how helpful that whole narrative really is.

00:49:41.000 I feel like it's a better story.

00:49:45.000 That was 1776 energy, and I think that really brings home for a lot of people the significance of the struggle that we're in, which is that it is like 1776.

00:49:56.000 It is like the Civil War.

00:49:59.000 Like, there was a siege on the Capitol, in a certain sense.

00:50:04.000 Not like a military siege, not like an invasion, but it was like a genuine political riot.

00:50:14.000 Which is representative of massive, widespread dissatisfaction about the election.

00:50:19.000 When you scuttle the January 6th narrative, it basically says, like, no one cared about the stolen election.

00:50:25.000 Nobody cared.

00:50:27.000 Because nobody talks about Stop the Steal, and nobody talks about all the rallies that were held in the state capitals leading up to that.

00:50:33.000 And if you scuttle January 6th, it's like...

00:50:36.000 People went there to surrender?

00:50:38.000 People showed up to watch the President surrender and say, oh well, guess we're gonna go home and lose.

00:50:45.000 Like, democracy's not legit, the Constitution's BS, the government's illegitimate, oh whatever, guess we'll just go home then.

00:50:53.000 Oh no, but now they're blaming us for something we didn't do!

00:50:57.000 We were gonna surrender!

00:51:01.000 To me, it totally diminishes everything that happened.

00:51:04.000 And I've said this for a long time.

00:51:06.000 It's important that Trump brings up 2020 because everything changed after 2020.

00:51:11.000 It is not meaningfully the same place.

00:51:13.000 It's not meaningfully the same strategic landscape.

00:51:18.000 In 2016, when it was arguably

00:51:22.000 A more conventional election, all we had to do was go out and vote and we could reasonably be assured that there wouldn't be such a level of fraud that Trump or any Republican could not win.

00:51:34.000 After 2020, that's not the case.

00:51:36.000 Like, everybody is saying about 24, we know it's going to be rigged already.

00:51:42.000 They just announced today in Pennsylvania, they're automatically registering people to vote with their driver's license at the DMV.

00:51:51.000 And I think they're entitled to absentee early voting.

00:51:56.000 So, the game's already rigged, and if you don't talk about that, and if people aren't serious about it, and if there's not this social proof that people were aware and pissed off enough about it back then that they went to the Capitol, I mean, how can you even talk about winning 2024?

00:52:15.000 The only time anyone cared about voter fraud, it was just a big hoax.

00:52:18.000 It was just a big Fed op.

00:52:19.000 I don't think January 6th was a Fed op.

00:52:22.000 I think there were Feds there, but I don't think that it was a Fed op.

00:52:27.000 I think that people were pissed.

00:52:29.000 The election was rigged.

00:52:32.000 And, you know, it might have been exacerbated by an element there.

00:52:36.000 Like I said, I saw some of it, I think.

00:52:41.000 But to take that mythology away is a mistake.

00:52:44.000 We need it there for 2024, because we're going to be up against the same thing.

00:52:50.000 And so what's the story going to be in 2024?

00:52:52.000 If we lose in 2024, are we going to say, ah, shucks, oh, well, we don't want to repeat it January 6th.

00:52:58.000 Let's all go home and just forget about it.

00:53:04.000 You know, or even in the lead up to that, are we going to say, oh, we just have to go out and vote and not worry about it?

00:53:11.000 So I don't like this whole, the whole Ray Epps thing has always been a crock of shit in my opinion.

00:53:16.000 And again, it's not to say that there wasn't some level of that there.

00:53:21.000 But again, it takes away what's going on.

00:53:25.000 You know, in the same vein, Donald Trump, you could say in a similar way that Donald Trump is an op.

00:53:31.000 Because look who supported Trump to get in the White House.

00:53:34.000 The Israelis.

00:53:36.000 There was a big article that came out recently, I think in The Nation or Salon or something, and it talked about the Israeli involvement in Trump's election in the first place.

00:53:45.000 It was called Russian hacking.

00:53:47.000 It was really Israeli hacking.

00:53:49.000 And Sheldon Adelson gave him $100 million, and there was all kinds of stuff going on there, shady business.

00:53:56.000 And with the same logic, we could easily dismiss the Trump Revolution and say, oh, that was an op by the Israelis.

00:54:02.000 On the other hand, you could say that while there was an element there, nevertheless, it captured the imagination of Americans, and that's the important narrative, is that a self-made billionaire developer rose up from outside the political class, betrayed the elite class,

00:54:22.000 And seized power in America with the support of the historic nation because they wanted to make their country great.

00:54:30.000 It was a revanchist movement.

00:54:33.000 Or you could say, oh, this guy was an Israeli op to defeat the new anti-Semites in the Democratic Party led by Obama and it was about sanctioning Iran and this sort of stuff.

00:54:47.000 Just like with January 6th.

00:54:48.000 We could say it was an op and it was a trap and they wanted to decapitate the leadership.

00:54:52.000 Or you could say it was our 1776 moment and people rose up and there was a real backlash to the fact that we have been politically crushed and silenced.

00:55:04.000 And the regime took it seriously because, in a sense, it represented a serious threat to their power.

00:55:12.000 It wasn't a serious threat because people were trying to storm and occupy the government, but it represented that because it showed that people were ready to do that.

00:55:21.000 People were willing to rise up in a certain sense.

00:55:26.000 Maybe not militarily, but people had had enough.

00:55:30.000 So...

00:55:33.000 So I've never been a fan of this stuff where everything's just spy games and we gotta be cynical.

00:55:38.000 We need stories and mythology.

00:55:42.000 And these things are also directionally true, even if, like I said, there's an aspect of truth to what these cynics say.

00:55:51.000 These people that, you know, everything's a spy, everything's an op, everything's this or that.

00:55:59.000 At the same time, equally true, there's something going on in the spirit of the people.

00:56:03.000 So, anyway, so that's that.

00:56:06.000 But I want to move on.

00:56:07.000 I want to get into our featured story, which is about the government shutdown.

00:56:12.000 And this is something which, like I said, we've actually been talking about for a few weeks on the show, although...

00:56:19.000 We haven't really talked about the government shutdown itself.

00:56:22.000 We've more been just talking about Kevin McCarthy and this beef that he has with the House Freedom Caucus.

00:56:30.000 So the story today is that five members of the Freedom Caucus scuttled an appropriations bill

00:56:38.000 Which they were trying to bring to the floor.

00:56:40.000 They didn't even get it put to a vote because five Republicans went against the Republican Party and prevented even a procedural vote that would bring it to the floor.

00:56:51.000 And this is part of this ongoing battle over this government shutdown that's supposed to happen on September 30th.

00:56:58.000 And the background is this.

00:57:01.000 The Congress needs to pass 12 appropriations bills to fund the government.

00:57:07.000 We're good to go.

00:57:28.000 So they need to pass a temporary bill that will give them a month's worth of funding and it'll bring them to October 30th.

00:57:36.000 And in the meantime, they're going to figure out how to pass all these other bills that will fund the government.

00:57:41.000 And it's going to be a showdown as it always is.

00:57:45.000 And Kevin McCarthy is working with the GOP to pass a stopgap bill called a continuing resolution that will include some provisions on immigration, and it's going to have 8% cuts across the board to everything other than the VA and the military.

00:58:03.000 And that's going to get shot down by the Democrats in the Senate, but Kevin McCarthy wants this

00:58:09.000 It's called the continuing resolution he wants the CR to pass so they can begin a negotiation and then they can compromise with the Democrats and pass something before the 30th to avert a government shutdown.

00:58:24.000 His critics within the Republican Party say that that's not good enough because of course this stopgap bill that they're going to put forward is going to be the starting point for negotiations.

00:58:36.000 So,

00:58:37.000 The bill that Kevin McCarthy wants to pass is going to have some provisions on border security, but no E-Verify and nothing really serious, and it's going to have 8% cuts to everything other than VA and military.

00:58:54.000 But that is not going to be the final bill.

00:58:57.000 That is going to go to the Senate and then it's going to go into a conference and they're going to negotiate on what the actual bill is going to be and so the spending cuts are going to be less and the provisions on border security, abortion, transsexual, there's some stuff on that too.

00:59:11.000 All of that is going to be negotiated down.

00:59:14.000 So the Freedom Caucus, 15 members of it, are saying, well that's not good enough.

00:59:20.000 Not only is an 8% cut not good enough, and not only is the border security not good enough, because it's bad as it is, but it's going to be worse, but also, they say, we don't even know altogether what the spending is going to look like.

00:59:34.000 We don't know what the total amount of spending is going to be in the stopgap measure or in these 12 appropriations bills.

00:59:44.000 And they said that's a problem, because the Biden administration is running these massive deficits,

00:59:50.000 We're good to go.

01:00:11.000 All these bad policies spend all the money that they're spending and we might as well be a democratic house is basically the argument that McCarthy's effectively working with Biden to fund his government and fund his regime and all the things we talk about on the show that he's doing.

01:00:27.000 We're just facilitating that.

01:00:29.000 That's the argument.

01:00:31.000 So, they went forward today and they're basically shutting down the House and sending a message to McCarthy that they, like these 5 members, between 5 and 15 members, they alone will be able to grind the whole process to a halt.

01:00:46.000 And there will be no continuing resolution, there will be no appropriations on these other 12 bills, unless Kevin McCarthy appeases them, or McCarthy caucuses with the Democrats to pass all this stuff.

01:01:01.000 In which case, McCarthy is going to look like a sellout, like he's working with the Democrats and it's just a big uni party, and then they're going to do a motion to vacate and force a vote on whether he should remain as Speaker.

01:01:14.000 So that's a political play here, and this is a story from Axios.

01:01:20.000 It says, quote,

01:01:41.000 More than a dozen Republicans, mostly hardliners, plan to vote against the stopgap bill, which would cut most non-defense discretionary spending by 8% and institute some Trump-era border policies.

01:01:54.000 The House is still scheduled to vote on Tuesday to advance a bill to fund the Department of Defense, which was similarly polled last week.

01:02:02.000 And that's the bill that failed today by 5 votes.

01:02:05.000 Several House Republicans emerging from a closed-door conference meeting on Tuesday morning predicted that the short-term funding bill will be tweaked to pacify conservative holdouts.

01:02:16.000 Representative Scott Perry, one of the conservatives who negotiated the bill, said it was just a proposal and of course it would be subject to change.

01:02:26.000 Excuse me.

01:02:28.000 Several right-wing Freedom Caucus members, including Perry, floated a bill to cut spending to 2022 levels, which is similar to the proposal being drafted by the conservative Republican Study Committee.

01:02:40.000 The bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus, meanwhile, is discussing a short-term spending bill that could bypass conservatives by garnering Democrat votes, according to two members of the group.

01:02:52.000 One Problem Solvers member told Axios that the bill would be rolled out when the failure of the proposed Republican bill is imminent.

01:03:03.000 There's now two negotiations happening.

01:03:06.000 There's a negotiation happening between McCarthy and the Democrats, and there's a negotiation happening within the Republican Party between McCarthy and these 15 members of the Freedom Caucus.

01:03:19.000 McCarthy wants to take a lame bill to the Democrats and say, you know, here's our negotiating position.

01:03:27.000 We want an 8% cut and we want some border security.

01:03:31.000 And the Democrats are going to say, no way!

01:03:34.000 No border security and no 8% cuts.

01:03:34.000 No chance.

01:03:38.000 And McCarthy's going to say, oh, okay.

01:03:40.000 How about no cuts and nothing?

01:03:42.000 He's going to come back and say, oh, okay.

01:03:45.000 Well, we are going to send a proposal back, and what we want is no cuts and no border security.

01:03:56.000 And the Democrats are going to say, okay, deal.

01:03:59.000 Because that's exactly what happened with the debt ceiling.

01:04:03.000 There was a similar situation, you might remember back in May or June, where this government was going to reach the debt ceiling, which is the limit set on how much the government can borrow in total.

01:04:19.000 And the government would need to borrow, even though the money was already appropriated, they need to borrow it in order to spend it.

01:04:27.000 So back in May and June, the deadline was that the government would run out of money that they could borrow.

01:04:32.000 And if they couldn't borrow any more money, then they couldn't spend any more money, and so the government would default.

01:04:39.000 And they would literally not be able to put checks out, so they couldn't pay Social Security, couldn't pay federal workers, like, it would be this big catastrophe.

01:04:50.000 And Republicans controlling the House,

01:04:52.000 Which, if you don't know, the House, being one chamber of the Congress, controls the purse strings.

01:04:59.000 They, under Article 1 of the Constitution, have the authority to control the appropriations process.

01:05:07.000 So Republicans have a lot of leverage here.

01:05:09.000 They have a lot of say.

01:05:11.000 The appropriations bills have to originate there, and they have to approve them, and Republicans control the chamber.

01:05:19.000 So, Republicans have leverage in that situation to say, look, we're not going to raise the debt ceiling.

01:05:26.000 We're not going to let you borrow more money until you cut spending, until you give a commitment to not appropriate any more money and we could get the borrowing and the spending under control.

01:05:37.000 That was the idea.

01:05:39.000 And so, like we always do, the Republican Party pushed right up until the deadline, and then at the last minute, gave up.

01:05:48.000 And they basically said, we will raise the debt ceiling indefinitely with no preconditions.

01:05:53.000 There was a paltry cut in spending that really means nothing.

01:05:59.000 And in exchange, they raised the debt ceiling until Joe Biden may no longer even be the president.

01:06:04.000 They suspended the debt ceiling until January 2025.

01:06:09.000 And so all the very conservative members of the Republican conference

01:06:15.000 Hey, what the F?

01:06:16.000 Why do we even win elections?

01:06:17.000 Why do we have a majority?

01:06:19.000 Why do we pick McCarthy as our leader if he is not going to use our leverage to negotiate anything that we want?

01:06:28.000 Specifically, they said McCarthy made a commitment when he was elected speaker within the Republican conference.

01:06:35.000 He said that he would hold Biden accountable and they would do specific things and cut spending.

01:06:43.000 So they said, here's a perfect example of six months after McCarthy has chosen a speaker, well into this session of the Congress, they completely capitulated and folded when they had all the leverage and got nothing in return.

01:06:59.000 So this is a reprise of that same battle.

01:07:02.000 It's not procedurally the same thing.

01:07:05.000 This doesn't concern the debt ceiling.

01:07:07.000 This is about appropriations.

01:07:10.000 And so the government effectively needs to appropriate a budget.

01:07:13.000 We know we never have a budget anymore, so we have these bills that, you know, in other words, it used to be the case that there was an actual budgetary process and the government would, the executive branch would lay out a budget and it would be revised and there would be a negotiation with Congress and they would fund it.

01:07:31.000 Now they just kind of fund things as they go along and although a budget is proposed, it's never actually voted on and

01:07:38.000 So instead you just get all the spending of the government gets combined into these massive appropriations bills that are just sort of passed as needed.

01:07:47.000 As the money runs out, another one is passed to appropriate more money.

01:07:52.000 And then when we reach the limit of how much we could borrow to fund those appropriations, we just raise the debt ceiling.

01:07:58.000 And so the spending is just out of control.

01:08:03.000 And the process is out of control.

01:08:06.000 Anyway, so this time it concerns this appropriations process where we need to pass 12 bills to fund the government, but we don't have enough time, so we need to pass a short-term continuing resolution to negotiate the bigger appropriations bills, and McCarthy is prepared to go to the Democrats

01:08:28.000 With nothing, again.

01:08:30.000 But this time, unlike last time, the Freedom Caucus within the Republican Party is saying no.

01:08:36.000 No, we will not let McCarthy go to the Senate with these paltry demands.

01:08:42.000 We will not let him go to the Senate asking for an 8% non-defense discretionary, non-military, non-VA spending cuts.

01:08:50.000 We'll not let him go there with border security with no E-Verify.

01:08:55.000 We want a bill that actually has teeth.

01:08:58.000 We want a bill that's actually going to do something.

01:09:01.000 And maybe it'll be negotiated.

01:09:02.000 It probably will.

01:09:04.000 But let's ask for more.

01:09:06.000 Let's try and get something out of this.

01:09:09.000 The Republicans won an election.

01:09:11.000 We won the House.

01:09:12.000 We should get something, too.

01:09:16.000 But now what's happening is McCarthy's being forced into this Catch-22 situation.

01:09:23.000 He doesn't want to pass a bill with more stuff in it.

01:09:26.000 Because he doesn't want to fight.

01:09:28.000 He doesn't want to fight the Senate.

01:09:29.000 He doesn't want to fight Joe Biden.

01:09:30.000 He doesn't want a government shutdown.

01:09:35.000 But, if he doesn't accept the Freedom Caucus's demands, the only way to avoid a government shutdown is to go and work with the Democrats.

01:09:42.000 And that's this Problem Solvers Caucus.

01:09:46.000 There's a caucus in the House which is saying if the 15 members of the Freedom Caucus don't vote, and they deny the Republicans the ability to pass the stopgap measure, they say, well, we'll find the support from the Democrats.

01:10:02.000 If 15 Republicans abstain from voting for a CR because it's not strong enough, they're saying, we'll get Democrats to vote for it.

01:10:09.000 We'll get 15 Democrats to replace them.

01:10:12.000 And in order to do that, we will take everything that we want out of the bill.

01:10:16.000 That's what they want to do.

01:10:18.000 So McCarthy is saying, if you don't accept my shitty bill, we'll get an even shittier bill with the Democrats.

01:10:25.000 If you don't accept what I'm demanding, if that's not enough, then we'll pass a bill that has no demands at all, and we'll get the Democrats to vote for it.

01:10:36.000 And I know it's like, you know, it's a little bit convoluted.

01:10:41.000 I don't know if I'm doing a great job explaining it,

01:10:46.000 But this is the problem.

01:10:48.000 And this is what I say every time there's an election.

01:10:50.000 This is why I tell people don't vote for Republicans.

01:10:53.000 Unless they're solid.

01:10:55.000 Unless they're fighters like Gates and Rosendale and the others.

01:11:00.000 Don't vote for them.

01:11:01.000 Because it's not worth it.

01:11:02.000 You see what everyone else is up to.

01:11:05.000 Let's entertain a hypothetical scenario here.

01:11:08.000 Let's say these 15 members

01:11:11.000 Refuse to vote for anything.

01:11:12.000 Let's say they just don't they want a government shutdown.

01:11:16.000 They refuse to negotiate So what's the alternative scenario?

01:11:22.000 Kevin McCarthy is going to caucus with the Democrats and the only way the Democrats are going to pass a bill is if the resolution has no concessions to Republicans

01:11:33.000 So there will be a vote down party lines where every single Republican in the House, except for 15, every single one of them,

01:11:43.000 is going to vote for a bill with the Democrats that will do nothing for Republicans, it will fund 100% of what Joe Biden's government wants.

01:11:54.000 It will fund 100% what's going on.

01:11:57.000 There is no victory, no concession, no nothing for Republicans.

01:12:02.000 That is a likely scenario at this point.

01:12:07.000 And so if that happens, what's the argument for why we should elect Republicans?

01:12:13.000 How insane is that?

01:12:15.000 We have the majority!

01:12:18.000 Republicans have the majority, and we have the speakership, and we have the purse strings.

01:12:25.000 And yet, Kevin McCarthy, rather than make real demands and real concessions,

01:12:33.000 He's going to cut off a small block of his own party and replace it with a kingmaker block of 10 or 11 Democrats to pass a bill that does nothing.

01:12:44.000 Why elect Republicans?

01:12:47.000 If 200 of them are going to vote for an appropriations bill that does nothing, why would you vote for any of those people?

01:12:54.000 As far as I'm concerned, the 15 that are protesting are the only ones worth voting for.

01:13:00.000 Because those are the 15, they're the only ones that are saying, hey, we're in Congress, let's try and get something.

01:13:08.000 Let's try and have a political victory for the right wing.

01:13:12.000 For our constituents, that is.

01:13:15.000 They're the only ones that are saying we should have a bill that actually extracts concessions.

01:13:21.000 Literally every other member, including McCarthy, and they made McCarthy the leader, says, rather than rock the boat too much, we'll just be Democrats.

01:13:29.000 We'll effectively bolster the Democrats by 200 votes.

01:13:34.000 Like, that's effectively what they're doing.

01:13:38.000 They're saying we'll take 15 Democrats and add 200 Republican votes to a clean resolution that gives the Democrats everything they want and there's no concessions for us at all.

01:13:50.000 But every election cycle we're told you have to vote Republican otherwise the Democrats are going to get in.

01:13:57.000 It's like they might as well be in no matter what.

01:14:01.000 Republican, Democrat, it doesn't matter.

01:14:05.000 Unless you're one of these 15 people.

01:14:09.000 Because like it's been demonstrated throughout this year, it's been almost one year since Republicans won the House.

01:14:16.000 This is the second opportunity where we have leverage to get something.

01:14:19.000 We've done nothing else.

01:14:21.000 There's been no release of the Capitol footage, no impeachment of Biden, no defunding of federal government salaries, no spending cuts, no border security, no nothing has gone on outside of these two opportunities where we could have gotten something done.

01:14:38.000 And the first time, we got no concessions.

01:14:41.000 And the second time, they're like, militating to get no concessions.

01:14:44.000 They're like, we will work with the Democrats to avoid getting concessions for our own party.

01:14:54.000 Like, at this point, you have to ask yourself, what do we have to lose?

01:14:58.000 If that's how it is with Republicans, what do we have to lose by not voting for them?

01:15:03.000 Seriously.

01:15:10.000 The only answer is to vote for the most conservative people in a given primary, and only vote in the general for people that are very conservative.

01:15:18.000 Otherwise, you get what you get.

01:15:22.000 You get what you get when you vote for Kevin McCarthy.

01:15:27.000 Which is, they're all on the same team, more of the same.

01:15:30.000 You know, they don't want the things that we want.

01:15:35.000 They tell us they want the same things when they want our vote, and then we give it to them, and then they remind us that they do not, in fact, want those things.

01:15:43.000 They do not want to be the Congress that impeaches Joe Biden.

01:15:47.000 They do not want to be the Congress that shuts down the government to cut spending.

01:15:51.000 They do not want to be the government that does any of the things they promised to do.

01:15:54.000 That's what they then say a year later.

01:15:57.000 And it's what they're saying now.

01:16:00.000 So...

01:16:01.000 That's what's going on in the House.

01:16:03.000 It's a mess.

01:16:04.000 And I hope they shut down the government.

01:16:06.000 And I hope Kevin McCarthy caucuses with the Democrats.

01:16:09.000 At least then, people can see what's really going on in D.C.

01:16:14.000 Let Kevin McCarthy make a deal with the Democrats.

01:16:17.000 And pass a clean CR.

01:16:19.000 And get nothing.

01:16:20.000 And then let Matt Gaetz do the motion to vacate.

01:16:23.000 And like, let's do it.

01:16:25.000 Let's go, man.

01:16:26.000 It's go time.

01:16:27.000 What are we waiting for?

01:16:29.000 Donald Trump was overthrown three years ago with a fake election.

01:16:33.000 It was seven years ago when he won and was supposed to revolutionize politics.

01:16:37.000 What are we waiting for?

01:16:39.000 We're gonna do this again?

01:16:41.000 Forever?

01:16:42.000 That's what it feels like.

01:16:45.000 16, 18, 20, 22, 24.

01:16:46.000 When is it time to make a change?

01:16:48.000 When is it time to try something different?

01:16:50.000 When is it time to do a prolonged government shutdown until the other side blinks first?

01:17:02.000 I don't know what people expect to happen.

01:17:03.000 Like, when are reforms going to happen?

01:17:06.000 And how are they going to happen if no one is ever willing to fight?

01:17:11.000 Like, everybody always says, well, you gotta pick your battles.

01:17:11.000 Right?

01:17:15.000 And, you know, I remember I would talk to GOSAR staff.

01:17:20.000 And they would say that kind of stuff.

01:17:21.000 Well, we gotta live to fight another day.

01:17:23.000 It's like, but you're not fighting!

01:17:25.000 You're not fighting!

01:17:26.000 You're living, but you're not fighting.

01:17:28.000 That's the problem.

01:17:30.000 We could almost as better if people die on some level.

01:17:33.000 And I don't mean literally.

01:17:35.000 I mean, it's better that you have people fight and sustain casualties, like people lose an election or they get canceled.

01:17:44.000 It's almost better that people lose.

01:17:47.000 This sort of, like, living and fighting in perpetuity?

01:17:52.000 Yeah, there's no losing, but there's also no winning.

01:17:55.000 Because there's no real fighting.

01:17:57.000 If you're just slinking along every day, they say, well, we live to fight another day.

01:18:03.000 Well, there's been a lot of living.

01:18:04.000 A lot of living and hanging on and pretending like we're fighting.

01:18:11.000 And although you've been fighting for so long, no one ever goes down, and no one ever advances.

01:18:18.000 No one ever gets taken out, and no one ever takes the hill.

01:18:22.000 So, it doesn't really sound like fighting.

01:18:25.000 You know, that would be like if I was in a fist fight with somebody for 72 hours.

01:18:33.000 You'd be like, okay, how is this person not knocked out or dead yet?

01:18:36.000 Or how is someone not won?

01:18:38.000 Oh, maybe it's because they're not actually fighting.

01:18:41.000 If you get in a fight, people get hit.

01:18:42.000 People get hit.

01:18:43.000 It ends fast.

01:18:44.000 Someone goes down.

01:18:45.000 Somebody's up.

01:18:46.000 That's it.

01:18:48.000 But if you're just fighting, living and fighting and living and fighting, it's like, OK, well, no one's getting hit and no one's hitting and no one's winning and no one's losing.

01:18:58.000 So it's not really fighting.

01:19:02.000 And that's really the problem here.

01:19:04.000 It's that it just goes on and on.

01:19:06.000 They fight to win re-election.

01:19:07.000 Ugh, we got it!

01:19:08.000 Okay.

01:19:09.000 And then they're in and oh well, hey, we don't control all of the government.

01:19:13.000 So we can't, our hands are tied.

01:19:15.000 Well hey, we gotta win this next election though.

01:19:17.000 And it just... And it just goes and goes and goes.

01:19:21.000 I've been watching this stuff closely since 2012 for 11 years.

01:19:26.000 And what's the big victory that Congress has literally ever won in 11 years?

01:19:31.000 Think about it.

01:19:33.000 Republicans won the House in 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, lost it in 2018, lost it in 2020, won it in 2022.

01:19:37.000 So how many years did they... I don't know, I didn't do the math real quick in my head, but...

01:19:52.000 If that's 14 years and we didn't have the House for 4 of them, then we had the House for 10 years.

01:19:59.000 And what did we do with it?

01:20:00.000 Did we repeal and replace Obamacare?

01:20:02.000 No.

01:20:03.000 Did we build a wall?

01:20:04.000 No.

01:20:05.000 Did we outlaw abortion at the federal level?

01:20:07.000 No.

01:20:08.000 Did we do a gay marriage?

01:20:09.000 No.

01:20:10.000 In fact, we protected it.

01:20:12.000 Did we ever cut government spending?

01:20:15.000 We didn't cut any kind of spending.

01:20:15.000 No.

01:20:17.000 Not military, not non-defense discretionary, not entitlements, nothing.

01:20:23.000 Did we defund any salaries?

01:20:24.000 Did we defund Planned Parenthood?

01:20:26.000 Did we impeach anybody?

01:20:28.000 No, no, no.

01:20:29.000 Did we end any of the wars?

01:20:31.000 No.

01:20:31.000 So, 14 years, 14 years, 10 out of 14 were Republicans.

01:20:34.000 Nothing.

01:20:43.000 Four of those years we had the House and Senate.

01:20:46.000 And two of them we had the House, Senate, and White House.

01:20:51.000 Nothing.

01:20:52.000 Zero.

01:20:53.000 None of it.

01:20:54.000 Even the most basic stuff.

01:20:58.000 And people go, oh, but we can't shut down the government!

01:21:00.000 Like, why not?

01:21:02.000 Let's just try something new.

01:21:03.000 What if we just shut down the government for a year?

01:21:05.000 Yeah, I know, that's totally unrealistic.

01:21:09.000 But what if we did?

01:21:10.000 Like, what would happen?

01:21:12.000 Let's just try it.

01:21:15.000 Because, you know, 10 years is a pretty long time for nothing to happen, you know?

01:21:22.000 They say that they're in favor of incremental reform, but it doesn't even move in increments.

01:21:27.000 It moves in millimeters, or a smaller measurement even.

01:21:34.000 Incremental reform.

01:21:36.000 Oh, you know, we gotta live to fight another day.

01:21:38.000 Again, where's the fight?

01:21:39.000 Where's the win?

01:21:40.000 Where's the loss?

01:21:41.000 All those people just get elected and re-elected for 14 years and nothing changes.

01:21:47.000 It doesn't get better or worse.

01:21:49.000 It just stays on the same trajectory.

01:21:53.000 So, that's what people are fed up with.

01:21:54.000 And Trump came and went.

01:21:56.000 And I know he's still in it for 24, but it's like, let's say he loses in 24.

01:22:01.000 It's like he came and went.

01:22:03.000 And nothing even changed.

01:22:04.000 Like, they didn't even pass anything in the House.

01:22:07.000 What was Trump's legislative achievement?

01:22:11.000 The tax cut?

01:22:12.000 Which expires?

01:22:14.000 And it was only for corporations?

01:22:17.000 That's all I could think of.

01:22:22.000 So, it's just sad.

01:22:26.000 But, uh, you know, good thing somebody's fighting.

01:22:29.000 I'm glad Mac Ates is doing it.

01:22:30.000 Lord knows, uh, Monkey, Marjorie Green isn't gonna do it.

01:22:34.000 Dumb fucking Monkey's not gonna do anything.

01:22:37.000 She's gonna do more pull-ups and have sex with more freaks, but no, uh, but not gonna fight.

01:22:43.000 No, she's done doing that.

01:22:44.000 She wants to be taken seriously by pedophiles.

01:22:47.000 So anyway, but that's that.

01:22:49.000 I want to move on.

01:22:50.000 We'll take a look at our Super Chat, see what you guys are saying about all this.

01:22:55.000 I'm not very optimistic about that process, but let's see what you guys have to say about all that.

01:23:01.000 Let me get set up here.

01:23:08.000 And we'll see what you have to say.

01:23:11.000 Okay.

01:23:17.000 Is that true?

01:23:17.000 That doesn't sound right to me.

01:23:36.000 Hey thanks buddy, I appreciate it.

01:23:38.000 Totally agree.

01:23:38.000 Hi.

01:23:39.000 Hi.

01:24:01.000 Yeah, he's been doing a good job.

01:24:02.000 I'm a fan.

01:24:03.000 Love, love SpeechGroiper.

01:24:05.000 Hey, glad to hear it, buddy.

01:24:06.000 Congratulations.

01:24:06.000 Stick with it, though, too.

01:24:07.000 You gotta see it through to the finish.

01:24:09.000 We want everybody to get confirmed on Easter.

01:24:30.000 But, uh, good for you, man.

01:24:32.000 Glad to hear it.

01:24:32.000 Absolutely.

01:24:45.000 Diet soda lover sent $10.

01:24:47.000 I found the TikTok account of that 30 years old guy from Texas you talked about two Fridays ago who documents his life of walking his dog, sitting at a desk, and grocery shopping like right after you talked about it and it was so funny.

01:24:59.000 Well and it's listen the problem isn't even that he does all that but he he is like promoting that.

01:25:05.000 It's the most wicked thing I have ever seen in my life because he's going out there in his mission

01:25:12.000 And the guy has like no chin.

01:25:15.000 And his wife is not hot at all.

01:25:18.000 He's like the perfect picture of mediocrity.

01:25:21.000 And his message, because he has a message.

01:25:23.000 It's not enough that he's like... It'd be one thing if he was just filming his life.

01:25:27.000 Okay, fine.

01:25:28.000 He's a mediocre guy.

01:25:29.000 He's filming his mediocre little life.

01:25:31.000 Okay.

01:25:33.000 But he's got a message.

01:25:35.000 It's insidious.

01:25:35.000 His insidious design.

01:25:38.000 Because on some level I wouldn't even care.

01:25:41.000 Most people don't have an exciting life.

01:25:43.000 It's fine.

01:25:44.000 It's relatable.

01:25:46.000 And honestly, he's a responsible adult.

01:25:49.000 Good for him.

01:25:51.000 But what makes this so wicked and evil and sinister is that it's part of this campaign that he's promoting.

01:25:58.000 He's got this idea in his head where he goes and says that there is a problem on TikTok where people promote a glamorous lifestyle and riches and fast cars and things and so his campaign is normalize the norm.

01:26:14.000 He says, I want to normalize being normal.

01:26:17.000 So every TikTok starts out.

01:26:19.000 This is a day in my normal life.

01:26:21.000 Here's me.

01:26:22.000 I'm a normal 28 year old guy living my normal life.

01:26:26.000 And then he shows this pathetic hollow existence and then ends it by saying, this is perfectly okay.

01:26:33.000 And he gives out stickers.

01:26:36.000 He gives out stickers.

01:26:37.000 He has a logo.

01:26:38.000 It says normalize the norm and he sends them out.

01:26:41.000 So I guess people sign up with their email or something.

01:26:44.000 And he sends them a packet of stickers that say normalize the norm.

01:26:49.000 So they're like promoting!

01:26:51.000 They're like wearing it as a label.

01:26:53.000 Hi, I'm normal.

01:26:54.000 Hi, I'm mediocrity.

01:26:57.000 I'm mediocrity and I'm okay with that.

01:26:59.000 I'm a mediocrity.

01:27:00.000 I'm a normal mediocrity.

01:27:02.000 Not too hot, not too cold.

01:27:05.000 Not too rich, not too poor, not too tall, not too short.

01:27:08.000 I'm a mediocrity, and that's okay, and I'm proud of that, and I identify as that.

01:27:12.000 And it's like, this is just like a disease, man.

01:27:15.000 This is sick.

01:27:17.000 And don't get me wrong.

01:27:18.000 Listen, and don't get me wrong.

01:27:21.000 With some people, with most people, that is what their life is going to be, and that's fine.

01:27:28.000 But he's like turning this into a tribe.

01:27:30.000 He's like turning this into an identity.

01:27:33.000 His identity is being mediocre.

01:27:36.000 Like, most people are mediocre.

01:27:39.000 And it is what it is.

01:27:41.000 But he has made it his identity.

01:27:44.000 He's made it a tribe of the mediocrities.

01:27:47.000 That's how they identify one another.

01:27:50.000 They identify as that together.

01:27:54.000 You know, it's one thing to be mediocre and you're like, well, I'm Italian, or I'm a mechanic, I'm a southerner, I play a banjo, I like a certain kind of music, or something like that, and you just happen to be in mediocrity, but he's like, no, mediocrity itself is my identity.

01:28:18.000 I live a vapid, hollow existence.

01:28:20.000 My wife isn't hot.

01:28:21.000 My dog is gay as fuck.

01:28:23.000 My house is retarded.

01:28:24.000 I live in Texas.

01:28:25.000 My job is meaningless and creates no value in the economy.

01:28:29.000 I eat shit for dinner.

01:28:31.000 I eat shit for lunch.

01:28:32.000 I go to Chili's on the weekend.

01:28:34.000 I drink beer with Birkenstocks on the weekend with my fucking in-laws on a shitty boat on a shitty, smelly lake.

01:28:41.000 And that's who I am.

01:28:42.000 And I don't know, I'm...

01:28:45.000 I know I'm just like a sick human being I know on some level it's me I'm the problem but there's something that's so like I don't know maybe it's like maybe I just resent the fact some would say this about me I don't know if it's true but some would say that I resent the fact that they have this they have an existence that isn't self-conscious

01:29:14.000 They have this sort of blissful... I don't want to say it's ignorance, because they're not exactly ignorant.

01:29:25.000 It's just that they don't care.

01:29:28.000 They're earnestly living, and they're simple, and they know it, but they don't care.

01:29:36.000 They're vulgar, and they know it, but they don't care.

01:29:42.000 I guess it's the not caring which is the problem.

01:29:45.000 That's where the matrix thing comes from.

01:29:49.000 It's not even so, because of course to be blue-pilled is a choice.

01:29:52.000 It's not that everyone takes a blue pill.

01:29:54.000 It's that people are shown that their reality is bullshit and they choose to take the blue pill.

01:30:03.000 They choose that because they don't care.

01:30:07.000 That's, maybe that's my problem with it.

01:30:09.000 That's the difference.

01:30:12.000 You know, because when he says that, it's almost like he's acknowledging, like, my life is bullshit.

01:30:18.000 But I don't care.

01:30:19.000 I like my bullshit life.

01:30:21.000 I like my holographic meatloaf.

01:30:25.000 It's something like that.

01:30:27.000 And I guess I would hate it less.

01:30:29.000 I just hate the culture so much.

01:30:31.000 It's not even so much the guy that I hate.

01:30:34.000 It's this culture where everything is so, like, depressing.

01:30:39.000 And I know it's all relative, of course.

01:30:43.000 But it's like the houses that people live in, the cities they live in, the workplace, the food, the clothing.

01:30:52.000 It's like soul-crushing.

01:30:55.000 He's wearing a backwards baseball cap drinking beer.

01:30:58.000 I'm like, you know, and some people would say, that's life, man.

01:31:02.000 That's simplicity and it's comfort and it's... But a part of me is like, can't we do better than that?

01:31:10.000 Can't we do better than Birkenstocks?

01:31:13.000 Can't we do better than that gay?

01:31:15.000 That dog is so fucking gay.

01:31:18.000 That's the gayest dog I've ever seen in my life.

01:31:21.000 You know?

01:31:22.000 And I'm not one of these guys that's like, oh, we're going to have a German Shepherd to be a tough guy.

01:31:27.000 But his dog is like the gayest dog I've ever seen, ever.

01:31:31.000 And his wife is like a real piece of work.

01:31:34.000 She's wearing yoga pants and she just looks ridiculous.

01:31:38.000 And I'm like, if that were my life, I could deal with like an uneventful quiet life, but not like that.

01:31:48.000 If I lived in like a cottage, and the house was made out of real materials, and I went to work in like a trade or something, and the food was good, like I wasn't going to Chili's as a treat, you know, maybe I'd be

01:32:08.000 Okay, we're good to go.

01:32:32.000 You know this is awesome you know but but it is true to some extent like it's such a depressing environment like I see this guy and he goes to work and he heats up like three buffalo wings he gets these like he'll get buffalo wings from the store and then reheat them in a plastic container at work for lunch and I'm like this is like prison like we live in hell we live in prison man he will get the saddest

01:33:02.000 Slice of pizza in the whole world and heat it up in the microwave and eat it at his desk and his job is like determining compensation packages for employees at an insurance company and it's like if that if that was my life and then I came home and my wife was ugly and I had to watch Netflix in my like

01:33:24.000 In this new construction, these like shitty houses they make and with my gay dog in Texas.

01:33:33.000 It just sounds like a nightmare.

01:33:34.000 Like in some, in some ways I would rather be a slave.

01:33:37.000 I would rather be an African slave working the field because at least they're outside.

01:33:42.000 At least they're outside.

01:33:45.000 I would rather be, I would rather be a black slave in the field.

01:33:49.000 And people go, no you wouldn't.

01:33:52.000 No you wouldn't because then you're property and then

01:33:55.000 You know, you're in shackles and you have no freedom.

01:33:59.000 It's like, but at least I'm outside.

01:34:02.000 Fresh air.

01:34:03.000 The sun beating down.

01:34:05.000 You know, and yeah, I have no freedom.

01:34:10.000 But at least I get a lunch break and I could sit outside and I could eat real food from the ground.

01:34:17.000 Real food.

01:34:18.000 And I could go to bed.

01:34:21.000 And, you know,

01:34:26.000 So there is something to that.

01:34:27.000 There is something to... It's not just about the economic class.

01:34:33.000 It's about the quality of life.

01:34:36.000 It's about the atmosphere.

01:34:37.000 So...

01:34:52.000 You know and the guy he's just like he has this like vacant stare he has no chin he has like no chin he looks like I can't even do it because I have such a I have such a strong chin but he has like no chin and he's like an average looking guy he's pretty tall though and it's like this is your this is your life that's life I guess sheesh yeah it's just like

01:35:23.000 Terrifying.

01:35:29.000 Anyway.

01:35:34.000 Because I feel like life as a low, as a person in a low economic class could be better.

01:35:43.000 That's what I want to improve.

01:35:46.000 On the contrary, I don't hate the poor and I don't even hate poverty.

01:35:51.000 What I hate is this soul-crushing environment.

01:35:57.000 I want to improve society so that even the life of the working middle and poor classes can be dignified and fulfilling and meaningful.

01:36:09.000 I feel like it's so... the terrifying aspect is it's not even like what they're doing.

01:36:20.000 It's like what they're surrounded by all the time.

01:36:25.000 It's not good.

01:36:27.000 Maybe that's, maybe I'm privileged for saying that, but that's how I feel about it.

01:36:31.000 Like an Amazon warehouse, you know, like I recognize that someone has to do that job.

01:36:36.000 I recognize that, you know, people are gonna work there, but it's like they put the toilet in such a way where it hurts your bones if you're on it for more than 10 minutes.

01:36:46.000 We could do better, you know, we could do better than like the lowest cost materials and

01:36:52.000 They treat people like they're, uh, like they're machines, you know?

01:36:55.000 Like we're part of the factory.

01:36:57.000 And you go home and you don't really leave the factory.

01:36:59.000 Even the housing is made like that.

01:37:01.000 The housing is made like, uh, like a cubby to stow the workers when they're done.

01:37:06.000 And the restaurants, too.

01:37:08.000 Chili's?

01:37:08.000 Fuck you.

01:37:09.000 I would rather die than eat at Chili's.

01:37:12.000 I would rather die than eat at a Chili's.

01:37:14.000 Don't take me up on that.

01:37:17.000 That's probably not true.

01:37:18.000 If someone put a gun to my head and said, you know,

01:37:21.000 Unlimited apps are your life.

01:37:23.000 I probably say all right fine bring on the unlimited appetizers, you know, but Bring on the $5 appetizers

01:37:35.000 But the point stands, like, I will never willingly go to Chili's.

01:37:38.000 You will have to coerce me to go to Chili's.

01:37:41.000 You have to bring serious coercion, not like... I mean, you could probably beat me up a little bit, where I would choose, like, a mild beating over Chili's.

01:37:51.000 If someone said, like, go to Chili's or a punch in the stomach, I'd say punch in the stomach.

01:37:56.000 If someone said, like, I'll cut you or Chili's, I'd say, okay, fine, take me to Chili's, you know, but...

01:38:04.000 But he's like, one of his TikToks, he was like filming his weekend with his bros.

01:38:10.000 Ugh!

01:38:11.000 And all his guy friends, they're wearing like shorts and the ugliest shirts and just like your classic chud shit.

01:38:20.000 And they're doing their thing or whatever.

01:38:23.000 And he has this shot.

01:38:24.000 He sets up the camera in such a way where the shot, where it's like the chili sign and the three bros with their backwards hats walking into the entrance.

01:38:34.000 And then the next shot, cheers!

01:38:37.000 We got beer-a-chillies!

01:38:40.000 And I'm like, oh my gosh, nuke this country today.

01:38:45.000 Nuke this country now.

01:38:49.000 Because this should not exist.

01:38:52.000 This is a nightmare.

01:38:58.000 The three, the three bros, the three wife guys.

01:39:02.000 Hey dudes, wanna go to Chili's?

01:39:04.000 Oh, you know it.

01:39:06.000 What are you gonna get?

01:39:06.000 Country fried steak?

01:39:07.000 I don't even know what they fucking eat there.

01:39:09.000 Oh, I'm gonna get the, uh, ribeye.

01:39:12.000 The Chili's ribeye?

01:39:13.000 I'm gonna get the, uh, Chicken Alfredo.

01:39:17.000 Why don't you, uh, kill yourself instead?

01:39:19.000 Or, in Minecraft, in Fortnite.

01:39:21.000 That's a joke.

01:39:22.000 I'm, I disavow that.

01:39:28.000 Go to Chili's.

01:39:29.000 Chili's on Saturday.

01:39:32.000 Yeah, let me get a $20 pasta dish from a fast casual chain.

01:39:37.000 What are we doing?

01:39:38.000 What are we doing with that?

01:39:39.000 What the fuck is that?

01:39:41.000 Shorts?

01:39:42.000 Oh my gosh.

01:39:48.000 Man, I just can't even before the bodybuilders go and take out the power grid.

01:39:52.000 They got to take out Chili's first You know and Bronze Age pervert goes out and says Oh Legion of naked bodybuilders were seen outside of the destroyed power grid.

01:40:01.000 It's like One day, you know one day.

01:40:04.000 I hope to see like Chili's burn to the ground all over like like a fight club

01:40:12.000 Project Mayhem, but instead of bringing down all the bank Instead of bringing down all the financial skyscrapers.

01:40:18.000 It's like I Met you at a very strange time in my life and then the song plays and then Chili's Everywhere across the country every Chili's location every Applebee's Every TGI Friday's is raised to the ground They all collapse like like 9-11 No, it's a joke.

01:40:39.000 Of course.

01:40:39.000 We don't want to see anything like that

01:40:42.000 Wouldn't that be funny?

01:40:44.000 I'm looking at, uh... Who's the girl these days?

01:40:48.000 I'm looking at, uh... There isn't really a girl of the movement.

01:40:52.000 I guess it'd be Cathy Xu still.

01:40:54.000 No, I'm looking at Britney from Politically Provoked.

01:40:57.000 I met you at a very strange time in my life.

01:41:01.000 And then the Pixies start playing and every Chili's in America is rubble.

01:41:09.000 Anyway...

01:41:11.000 So that's that, guys.

01:41:12.000 Fuck chilies.

01:41:15.000 And anybody who eats there, do not eat at Chili's, ever.

01:41:20.000 Or Applebee's, or any of that.

01:41:23.000 Go ahead, you're already paying the money.

01:41:25.000 Go to a real restaurant.

01:41:26.000 No more of these yuppie American places.

01:41:31.000 I see all... and not just the fast casual.

01:41:33.000 I'm talking about there's so many of these like American bar... it's like a pub style restaurant and all the appetizers are $22 and it's like the most mediocre food you've ever had.

01:41:45.000 I'm so sick of all that shit.

01:41:47.000 You got to get rid of all that stuff.

01:41:50.000 Anyway...

01:41:54.000 We gotta ban that.

01:41:55.000 Very true, you're right about that.

01:42:16.000 Whoa!

01:42:16.000 Hey, thank you for the big super chat.

01:42:45.000 They work harder than... Well, that's true.

01:42:47.000 I mean... You know, it depends though, because women... Women excel in very specific areas.

01:42:56.000 Like, they're good taskmasters, but that's it.

01:42:59.000 Like, they can be assistants and customer service.

01:43:02.000 They're good at those kinds of things.

01:43:03.000 Anything where it's like a simple, repeatable task.

01:43:06.000 Anything customer relations.

01:43:09.000 Busy work.

01:43:10.000 They're good at things like that, because you went to school with these types.

01:43:13.000 They...

01:43:15.000 Have color-coded notes.

01:43:17.000 They don't know what they mean, but they're color-coded.

01:43:20.000 That is a good symbol of what women are capable of in the workforce.

01:43:26.000 You know, they would be in physics class, I remember, and they'd have their binder color-coded and their notes in different colored pens and highlighter, but they don't know anything about physics.

01:43:38.000 So, you know, they're good at that sort of thing.

01:43:43.000 But male blacks can do things that women can't.

01:43:48.000 Depends on the woman though.

01:43:49.000 Like a Chinese woman, yeah, they'll outclass.

01:43:52.000 But the lower you go, the less that's the case.

01:44:00.000 Trump shirts for women?

01:44:02.000 Well we're discontinuing those anyway and uh no we're not we don't take a super chat as a form of payment you gotta do crypto.

01:44:10.000 Sorry that's uh comes with the cost of being banned from the banking system so I appreciate the super chat but that's not really how it works.

01:44:19.000 Yeah, maybe I'll react to that in a stream or something.

01:44:22.000 I've been meaning to do a casual stream, so maybe I'll react to that.

01:44:25.000 But yeah, I mean, I feel like for all black people that's a default position.

01:44:28.000 All black conservatives say it's culture, so that doesn't surprise me at all.

01:44:49.000 Elijah sent $15.

01:44:51.000 I like Russell Brandt.

01:44:52.000 If you pay attention to him you can tell hes quite intelligent.

01:44:55.000 I see him as a gateway, a bridge connecting us to people we wouldn't normally agree with.

01:45:00.000 Hes part of a pipeline, watching him is how I got to you watching you.

01:45:06.000 Yeah, I agree that he's intelligent, for sure.

01:45:08.000 And I think he's part of a pipeline, but like I said, I just... It is hard for me to digest the gimmick of being a truth teller and there are certain things that are never brought up.

01:45:19.000 It's just hard for me to digest that.

01:45:20.000 As someone that is on the end of the pipeline, I can't get into it.

01:45:24.000 So... That's my point.

01:45:29.000 Oh, I did my whole show about that.

01:45:31.000 I'll probably cover it tomorrow.

01:45:32.000 I don't really have strong feelings about it to tell you the truth because

01:45:58.000 I'm not Armenian.

01:45:59.000 I'm not a Ziri.

01:46:00.000 I mean I have feelings about it to the extent that Armenia is Christian and Azerbaijan has the support of NATO and Israel But I don't You know, I don't feel very strongly about it outside of that And I don't know if Russia will get involved.

01:46:20.000 I think it remains to be seen I

01:46:23.000 Yeah, he's Jewish.

01:46:51.000 Yep, yep.

01:46:51.000 I see what's been going on.

01:46:52.000 I'll probably cover it tomorrow though.

01:47:20.000 Yeah, I saw that just before I went live.

01:47:22.000 I don't know if that's true or not.

01:47:24.000 It seems far-fetched, but who knows?

01:47:27.000 Hey, thanks a lot, buddy.

01:47:29.000 I appreciate it.

01:47:45.000 Love you too, buddy.

01:47:46.000 Yeah, I don't know, man.

01:47:47.000 It's just such an insufferable part of the culture.

01:47:49.000 It seems like they lack all self-awareness.

01:47:51.000 Everything that they do is totally dated, and yet they still think it's cool and edgy.

01:48:16.000 And they just let at least boomers have the self-awareness to say, oh, I know I'm an old dork and that kind of thing like boomers know that they're Not cool, you know Boomers in or maybe people even a little older than boomers Aged a little bit more gracefully

01:48:38.000 Whereas Gen X still think they're really cool.

01:48:40.000 Gen X still think that punk rock is, like, in.

01:48:44.000 You know?

01:48:46.000 And it's like, punk rock hasn't been in for 30 years, you know?

01:48:50.000 20 or 30 years.

01:48:52.000 So... Like, they haven't changed anything.

01:48:57.000 They still think tattoos and sex, drugs and rock and roll and...

01:49:02.000 flipping off the man and that they and they haven't changed how they behave either it's like you're you're 60 you're 60 and you think you're like a skateboarder or something it's like you have arthritis dude so yeah they

01:49:21.000 And it's not all Gen Xers, it's the subset.

01:49:23.000 Just like the boomers had the hippies, Gen Xers have the punk rockers, and they're just the most insufferable subset of any generation, I feel like.

01:49:33.000 I hate it.

01:49:34.000 Like, I look at this picture of Jim Goat in that article, and it's like, do you think you're cool or something?

01:49:40.000 You're 62.

01:49:42.000 Cool beanie.

01:49:43.000 You're an old fucking man.

01:49:45.000 And that, and it is what it is.

01:49:47.000 You know, people get old, but act your age.

01:49:52.000 He can be cool and old, but nobody... No old person that's cool is trying to look like they're 23, you know?

01:50:00.000 So... Uh, no.

01:50:23.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:50:24.000 Hope to see him at AFPAC.

01:50:26.000 The only problem is there's going to be a dress code, so I don't know if that's going to be prohibitive for him.

01:50:30.000 Okay, but he's not connected to Soros.

01:50:33.000 He got a scholarship from George Soros' brother and has no connection with Soros.

01:50:53.000 And when you say he's saying the right things, what the fuck are you talking about?

01:50:58.000 He said on interview that it was reprehensible that someone had an Israel lapel pin on their lapel during a presidential debate.

01:51:08.000 He stood there and challenged Nikki Haley that we should give Israel foreign aid.

01:51:12.000 He said that Israel should not be our North Star, America should be our North Star.

01:51:17.000 So what are those right things you're referring to?

01:51:19.000 You know, whenever... Here's the thing about this kind of shit.

01:51:23.000 You have to look at what they're saying, okay?

01:51:27.000 Like, it's not just necessarily the associations or these kinds of things.

01:51:33.000 Of course you have to look at those things.

01:51:35.000 But you have to take it with what they're saying.

01:51:38.000 For how it's part of some other agenda.

01:51:41.000 What part of the ulterior motive is there for this guy to come in and to disrupt DeSantis and to challenge the Israel lobby and to challenge some of these other ideas?

01:51:55.000 What's the agenda there?

01:51:57.000 You know, with a guy like Bronze Age Pervert, I can articulate it very clearly.

01:52:02.000 He is a Zionist, Straussian, immigrant Jew who's connected to Jensa and to Bill Kristol and Harvey Mansfield, Bill Kristol's mentor, and all of his mentors are Jewish Zionists.

01:52:18.000 And his message never criticizes Israel.

01:52:21.000 It never criticizes the role of Israel.

01:52:24.000 It never criticizes Judaism outright.

01:52:27.000 It rejects Catholicism and ridicules Catholicism.

01:52:32.000 They create this idea that at the center of the power structure is a conspiracy led by a cathedral rather than a synagogue.

01:52:41.000 I mean, I could go on and on.

01:52:43.000 So you've got the connections and you've got the message, and you could see that he is a guy with these connections pushing this agenda, pushing this subversive agenda.

01:52:53.000 With Vivek, you're saying, well, he was in Skull and Bones at Yale, which is like, okay, that's a little fishy, but I don't know if that's really rock solid.

01:53:02.000 And then he got a scholarship.

01:53:04.000 That's not really the kill shot that you think it is.

01:53:11.000 And then you look at the message, and the message is, if anything, more critical of Israel than any other candidate, including Trump.

01:53:21.000 So how does that behoove the Zionist group?

01:53:24.000 The Zionists have their candidates.

01:53:25.000 We know who they are.

01:53:26.000 They're wearing their flag as a lapel pinner.

01:53:28.000 It's on their campaign website.

01:53:30.000 It's Hutchinson.

01:53:31.000 It's Mike Pence.

01:53:33.000 It's Nikki Haley.

01:53:34.000 It's Ron DeSantis.

01:53:36.000 You can sit there and say that all you want.

01:53:37.000 Ron DeSantis went to Israel to dine with Miriam Adelson before he announced.

01:53:42.000 And he announced it with David Sachs.

01:53:47.000 And he passed laws in Florida banning anti-Semitism.

01:53:52.000 And you're gonna say, no, the guy is the one who's stealing Ron DeSantis' support, who took a scholarship 20 years ago from Soros' brother to go to law school, and he's critical of Israel, or foreign aid to Israel.

01:54:09.000 So, like, and that's not me, by the way, defending Vivek 100%, but this is just stupid.

01:54:16.000 This is just bad thinking.

01:54:21.000 And, you know, that's just retarded.

01:54:24.000 It has to make sense.

01:54:29.000 Yeah, I'm just against that.

01:54:30.000 Like, I'm against tattoos.

01:54:58.000 I'm against flip-flops.

01:55:00.000 I don't think it's ever acceptable to wear flip-flops.

01:55:02.000 I think that shows how far we have fallen as a culture.

01:55:08.000 That people think it's appropriate to wear flip-flops anywhere other than the beach or the pool.

01:55:14.000 It's never called for.

01:55:15.000 You can't put on a pair of socks and shoes when you leave the house.

01:55:20.000 I think that's outrageous.

01:55:22.000 And the tattoo thing as well.

01:55:23.000 Tattoos in a different time.

01:55:27.000 We're for scoundrels or indigenous people or the military.

01:55:33.000 Now you see everybody getting them.

01:55:34.000 I think tattoos are disgusting.

01:55:36.000 I think they're gross.

01:55:37.000 I think it's low class.

01:55:38.000 There's no, there's no reason for it.

01:55:41.000 Cigarettes a little different.

01:55:42.000 Beer can be different.

01:55:43.000 I think cheap beer is kind of gay.

01:55:44.000 It's one thing if it's like, uh, like it is in Europe.

01:55:50.000 Um, the cargo shorts, it's another one.

01:55:52.000 Yeah, I, I'm against shorts, especially cargo shorts.

01:55:59.000 Chief Sunglasses, eh?

01:56:00.000 Eh, whatever, maybe.

01:56:03.000 But... Yeah, I am totally against that.

01:56:06.000 That's the kind of scene I'm talking about.

01:56:08.000 It's like... There's just no reason for any of that, in my opinion.

01:56:12.000 In my personal opinion.

01:56:14.000 Whoa.

01:56:14.000 You cracked the case.

01:56:16.000 I think something's going on.

01:56:23.000 Yeah, I think we've been over that.

01:56:25.000 Hey thanks buddy, I appreciate it.

01:56:27.000 Thanks.

01:56:45.000 I don't know what that has to do with America.

01:56:46.000 I'm not talking about Brazil.

01:56:48.000 I'm talking about America.

01:56:49.000 And where's the evidence about Ray Apps?

01:57:06.000 I don't know.

01:57:06.000 I doubt those, uh... Well, one, I've seen Strickland and he doesn't seem like really our crowd, you know?

01:57:09.000 He seems more like a libertarian.

01:57:34.000 And the rest of them, I mean, I don't think any of them want to associate with me, with my whole baggage and everything.

01:57:40.000 So, I don't think so.

01:57:41.000 But who knows?

01:57:42.000 Maybe.

01:57:43.000 Stephen Ignoramus sent $250.

01:57:46.000 Been watching since Stop the Steal.

01:57:48.000 Just tossing in a little back pay.

01:57:50.000 More to come.

01:57:51.000 Planning to be at the next donor dinner, whenever that is.

01:57:54.000 I saw Oliver Anthony play a music festival on Sunday.

01:57:57.000 It was about as expected.

01:57:59.000 We need white excellence, not whatever you call that.

01:58:02.000 Thanks for doing what you do, Nick.

01:58:05.000 God bless.

01:58:06.000 Christ is King.

01:58:07.000 Hey, thank you very much for the big super chat.

01:58:09.000 I really appreciate you coming in with that message, because it's like...

01:58:13.000 Here's a rich guy with money who says here's a big super chat and I'll be a donor and he's agreeing with me.

01:58:19.000 That is a total vindication of my strategy.

01:58:22.000 That is a total vindication of my message and what I'm promoting.

01:58:28.000 To hear that.

01:58:29.000 I appreciate the cavalry coming in here.

01:58:31.000 Because I've been saying this and I'm like, where are all the, like, civilized people that want to live in a real civilization?

01:58:39.000 Where are the rich people that want to live in a rich society where people dress nice and it's classy?

01:58:47.000 Like, I mean, I don't find... I don't find that scene charming.

01:58:52.000 Some people think it's very charming.

01:58:54.000 I don't.

01:58:55.000 The sights, the sounds, the smells.

01:58:59.000 I mean, I didn't grow up in that.

01:59:00.000 It's not my scene.

01:59:01.000 And I don't think there's anything objectively good about it.

01:59:04.000 I think people retreat to that because it's where they feel comfortable and it's familiar.

01:59:08.000 But I don't think there's anything to be proud of with that sort of thing.

01:59:13.000 When people are dressed like that and they go out in the mud and go, woo!

01:59:18.000 Woo!

01:59:19.000 You know, with beer and everything.

01:59:21.000 And it's like, you know, I have no affinity for that.

01:59:28.000 And you can call that a snobbish well, I think that that's I Think snobbery is a good thing.

01:59:37.000 I think that snobbishness is standards It's giving like when people say you're a Karen and I'm I defend Karen's Karen's are the enforcers of standards We would have no standards if it wasn't for Karen's There's nobody would care if nobody said anything when these standards fell

01:59:56.000 Then they would fall.

01:59:58.000 You know, if you went to a restaurant or whatever, and there was no person there, whether it be a white woman or whoever, to say, hey, I'm paying for this, I expect a certain level of service, I expect this, this, and this, well, then you're gonna get less.

02:00:14.000 It's oppositional.

02:00:18.000 And of course people say, oh, you're a Karen.

02:00:22.000 And what they mean is if you care about standards,

02:00:25.000 You're a shrill.

02:00:26.000 You're a snob.

02:00:28.000 You're a hard-on.

02:00:30.000 And I feel the same way about stuff like this.

02:00:32.000 People say, oh, it's snobbish.

02:00:34.000 Yeah, I like elites.

02:00:34.000 It's elitist.

02:00:36.000 You don't want to be in an elite thing?

02:00:39.000 You know, you don't want to be elite?

02:00:42.000 Oh, you're a snob.

02:00:44.000 So what do you like?

02:00:44.000 Filth?

02:00:45.000 You like filth and dirt and... I don't know why we would like those things.

02:00:53.000 Yeah, yeah, I will.

02:00:54.000 I will take the elite option over the, uh, what there is.

02:00:59.000 You know, whatever there is out there.

02:01:05.000 So I don't think it's a bad thing.

02:01:06.000 But thank you for the big super chat.

02:01:07.000 I appreciate it.

02:01:08.000 I'm glad my message resonates with you.

02:01:11.000 That's what it's all about, man.

02:01:15.000 Oliver Anthony Music Festival.

02:01:16.000 Yeah, I can imagine it in my head right now.

02:01:22.000 And, uh, yeah, we could do better, I think, as a people.

02:01:24.000 Line Rider sent $10.

02:01:26.000 The Fed narrative is just conceding that J6 was an unforgivable attack on democracy.

02:01:31.000 All it did was detract from Stop the Steal.

02:01:33.000 Oh, you guys are right, it was bad.

02:01:35.000 But that's not us, it was Feds.

02:01:37.000 It's like when Khan Incorporated says Nazis were actually leftists.

02:01:40.000 Yeah, well said.

02:01:41.000 Exactly.

02:01:42.000 Exactly.

02:01:43.000 It concedes the whole thing.

02:01:45.000 It says, you're right, it was like 9-11, but it was the government, not us!

02:01:50.000 Yeah, exactly.

02:01:50.000 Yeah, there's that.

02:01:51.000 He's not even trying to stop it at the border.

02:01:53.000 He's letting that community exist.

02:01:54.000 And, you know, I don't think Huffines really stood a chance even at doing what you say.

02:01:57.000 But still, the point remains.

02:02:18.000 Farid Lukovic sent $20.

02:02:21.000 Great show Nick!

02:02:22.000 Question.

02:02:23.000 Why would Jews champion white genocide when they themselves are white presenting and most black and brown people group Jews and whites together?

02:02:30.000 Wouldn't Jews be next on the chopping block?

02:02:32.000 Is it part of some apocalyptic Jewish prophecy?

02:02:42.000 The problem with white genocide, one, is that the white fertility rate is dropping.

02:02:48.000 Okay, so the whites are going away regardless.

02:02:51.000 The secondary aspect is the immigration that's being brought in.

02:02:56.000 The goal with bringing in the immigrants is to dilute the share of the country that is white.

02:03:03.000 It's not what do you say they're up on the chopping block.

02:03:07.000 The thing is, is that whites are disappearing because they're they're diminishing.

02:03:11.000 It's not like blacks are coming in and killing all like large numbers of white people.

02:03:15.000 Yes, blacks are killing a disproportionate like the interracial crime rate is disproportionate in the sense that more blacks kill whites than whites kill blacks.

02:03:24.000 But what you're maybe not understanding is that what makes it a genocide is the fact that whites are sort of organically going away.

02:03:34.000 Or maybe not organically, but you understand.

02:03:37.000 It's the fact that they're not being born.

02:03:39.000 It's that year over year, fewer white people are being born.

02:03:42.000 And maybe that would be fine because whites would still be 100% of a smaller country.

02:03:47.000 The problem is that the country continues to grow as white people

02:03:53.000 We're good to go.

02:04:18.000 And they can all, even though they're white presenting, they have carefully ingratiated themselves inside the left and have maintained, and this is what we always talk about, this two-faced position where they're white when they need to be and they're not white when they need to be.

02:04:36.000 When they want to degrade and ridicule white people, they do it as whites, and they say, oh, as a white person, I hate white people.

02:04:43.000 Speaking as a white person, I'm an idiot, and we're the worst, and blah, blah, blah.

02:04:49.000 But on Rosh Hashanah, they're all Jewish, and on Holocaust Remembrance Day, they're all Jewish, and when an anti-Semitic incident happens, remember, they're Jewish.

02:04:56.000 So, this is all, like, basic stuff.

02:05:00.000 This is, like, 101.

02:05:04.000 So the goal of the white genocide is to dilute the proportion of whites in the country because that makes the country safer for Jews.

02:05:14.000 And the Jews aren't worried about sporadic black predation.

02:05:19.000 They are worried about organized systematic white violence like the Holocaust.

02:05:27.000 That's what they're more worried about.

02:05:29.000 They can tolerate some ragtag

02:05:34.000 Flash mob, criminal activity from the underclass.

02:05:39.000 They cannot tolerate organized white society where they're highly aware of subversion, infiltration, corruption.

02:05:49.000 You know, when you look at these boomers that are following state politics and

02:05:54.000 You know, they have a strong opinion about who the governor is.

02:05:57.000 They're always white people.

02:05:58.000 You ever notice that?

02:06:00.000 You ever notice that the people in your community that have a strong opinion about state government and state politics and vote in the midterms are all, like, white people?

02:06:11.000 They're, like, white guys?

02:06:13.000 They're white boomers?

02:06:15.000 That's the red pill.

02:06:17.000 So, um... So, no, not necessarily.

02:06:20.000 Not in the way that you think.

02:06:23.000 Jews have never been next on the chopping block.

02:06:25.000 Jews have always thrived when foreigners have come into Western places.

02:06:30.000 Like, Jews thrived in the Ottoman Empire.

02:06:33.000 Jews thrived in Spain under the occupation of Muslims.

02:06:38.000 So, you know, I think they expect to thrive when non-whites take over America as well.

02:06:48.000 They already are.

02:06:50.000 Chad Master Manhanson sent $30.

02:06:53.000 Hey there, thanks for everything you do.

02:06:56.000 Can I get an unban?

02:06:57.000 I honestly have no idea what I did.

02:06:59.000 Oh really?

02:06:59.000 Miss chatting and spend all my money on Joe the Boomer.

02:07:02.000 Here's a Mickey D meals worth of moolah.

02:07:05.000 Cheers!

02:07:06.000 Hey, thanks a lot for the super chat.

02:07:11.000 That's funny.

02:07:12.000 People never know what they did.

02:07:13.000 Whenever people ask to get unbanned, it's always such a mystery.

02:07:17.000 I genuinely have no idea.

02:07:18.000 You also sent the Super Chat five times, so I'm gonna refund four of those.

02:07:27.000 I genuinely... I hate when people say that.

02:07:29.000 I genuinely have... Whenever you say, like, I genuinely have no idea, whenever you, like... I don't know what it is, but I hear that construction all the time.

02:07:40.000 People say, no, I genuinely don't... I don't know, it just makes you sound dumb.

02:07:44.000 No offense.

02:07:45.000 You know what I'm talking about?

02:07:47.000 Maybe this is just a really idiosyncratic thing.

02:07:51.000 It almost just sounds like defensive.

02:07:53.000 And I don't like it.

02:07:55.000 But fine, I'll unban you.

02:07:58.000 I don't know if you have any idea what I'm talking about, but... No, I genuinely don't know.

02:08:07.000 I don't like the way that sounds.

02:08:07.000 I don't know.

02:08:09.000 Anyway.

02:08:13.000 Let's see.

02:08:14.000 Okay, so thanks for that.

02:08:16.000 Jorge Floyd sent $3.

02:08:20.000 They are putting normies in the TikToks that are turning the freaking dogs gay.

02:08:26.000 Okay.

02:08:27.000 That's a stupid question.

02:08:29.000 I support what works, okay?

02:08:31.000 I love when people say stuff like, do you support the free market?

02:08:33.000 It's like, what does that mean?

02:08:34.000 What does that mean?

02:08:35.000 The free market isn't real, okay?

02:08:37.000 There's no such thing as a free market at all.

02:08:57.000 Okay, the situation that goes on that prevails in the country at any given time is a result of an incentive system that has been directly or indirectly, knowingly or unknowingly, created by systems that human beings designed.

02:09:13.000 So when people say things like the free market, I don't know what that means.

02:09:16.000 That's not real.

02:09:17.000 There is no such thing as a free market, okay?

02:09:21.000 There is a world that humans live in and it has come about

02:09:28.000 You know, and again, with consequences that are intended or unintended, but it's a system.

02:09:34.000 And the system is really, the contours of it are made by the incentives and disincentives within it.

02:09:47.000 So, you know, when you say porn, fast food, social media, how do we mitigate that?

02:09:56.000 Make it illegal.

02:09:57.000 Free market, make it illegal.

02:09:59.000 Make pornography illegal.

02:10:01.000 And like I said, incentives and disincentives.

02:10:03.000 Right now, you know, people want to look at pornography and masturbate to it and so people can make a lot of money making it.

02:10:15.000 And it wasn't always that way.

02:10:18.000 There was a Supreme Court decision that said that pornography is First Amendment protected.

02:10:22.000 And there's all kinds of other things that facilitate that.

02:10:26.000 So the way that you mitigate that is you make it illegal.

02:10:31.000 So then it becomes very difficult to procure and it becomes impossible to buy with a credit card.

02:10:37.000 And then it becomes a lot less lucrative to produce and so people stop making it and then there's less of it.

02:10:44.000 And then fewer people watch it.

02:10:48.000 Same thing with fast food.

02:10:49.000 Regulate it.

02:10:50.000 You need to straight up regulate it.

02:10:51.000 There's this new Dunkin Donuts drink and it has 200 grams of sugar.

02:10:56.000 It's like the munchkin pumpkin swirl at Dunkin Donuts.

02:11:00.000 I saw some TikTok about it.

02:11:02.000 It has 180 grams of sugar.

02:11:05.000 There's no coffee in it.

02:11:06.000 It's all just like syrup and other goofy stuff.

02:11:12.000 And you just need to ban things like that.

02:11:15.000 No drink should have that.

02:11:17.000 I don't care.

02:11:18.000 It just shouldn't have that.

02:11:21.000 And if it does, it should be smaller.

02:11:25.000 That stuff just needs to be regulated.

02:11:32.000 They need to put a tax on it so you get less of it.

02:11:37.000 Maybe don't make it impossible to get, but you make it more expensive.

02:11:41.000 Like they do it in Europe.

02:11:43.000 In Europe, they told the soda companies that if a soda has too much sugar, like, we will tax it and make it more expensive per unit.

02:11:50.000 So you know what they did?

02:11:51.000 They took the sugar out.

02:11:52.000 They made it flavored up to a certain point by sugar, and then the rest is different sweeteners.

02:12:00.000 And so as a consequence, the soda's a lot less sugary there.

02:12:05.000 It's just simple.

02:12:05.000 Like, that's what you do.

02:12:07.000 So no, but it's not like a question of do I support free markets?

02:12:11.000 Like is there any situation where you'd say I support the free market even if everyone's hooked on drugs, porn, and social media?

02:12:19.000 Like no, no.

02:12:21.000 So you know you support the public good and you do what's necessary with the system we have to get the outcome that is best.

02:12:31.000 But I don't like that question.

02:12:34.000 Okay, well, next time, you need to be banned now.

02:12:36.000 Now that you said it like that, that's just rude.

02:12:39.000 Okay, you fucked up.

02:12:57.000 And then, oh, unban me.

02:12:59.000 No, I want to ban you!

02:13:01.000 Thanks, man.

02:13:01.000 Keep the money.

02:13:02.000 Don't refund.

02:13:03.000 I honestly don't know what happened.

02:13:04.000 Cheers.

02:13:04.000 Well, I already refunded it.

02:13:07.000 Unban me.

02:13:08.000 What am I?

02:13:09.000 What, do I work for you?

02:13:11.000 Don't tell me what to do.

02:13:18.000 You're testing my patience tonight.

02:13:19.000 Okay.

02:13:19.000 Thank you.

02:13:20.000 True.

02:13:20.000 Thank you for that.

02:13:21.000 Where did I see you in LA?

02:13:49.000 I don't know who that is, but thanks.

02:13:50.000 I'm glad to hear you're in RCIA.

02:13:53.000 I was like, who are you?

02:13:54.000 Who is this?

02:13:57.000 I don't know what that is.

02:14:24.000 I feel like if you're gonna spend that kind of money, why would you go to a chain?

02:14:27.000 But I would take a fancy restaurant over that, for sure.

02:14:32.000 Alex K. sent $10.

02:14:33.000 Your take on meager lives and the loser mentality is spot on.

02:14:38.000 My great-grandfather sent all his children to private Catholic schools on one salary working at the steel mills in Southside Chicago.

02:14:45.000 Always dignified, always wore a suit outside work.

02:14:48.000 I mean the economics of that may not work anymore like I don't think you could do that on a single income anymore but the part about wearing a suit outside work that's what I'm talking about like even though you're poor you can still have nice things and take care of them and be presentable it's a total defeat to say I'm gonna live in a pigsty and dress like a slob and be a slob and you know because that that's

02:15:14.000 That's how we do it!

02:15:15.000 You know, like, no, we don't have to be that way.

02:15:18.000 We can be better.

02:15:18.000 Yeah, I saw that.

02:15:32.000 Thanks.

02:15:32.000 No, I'm not sick.

02:15:33.000 Do I look sick?

02:15:33.000 I'm just tired.

02:16:30.000 Yeah, we fancy.

02:16:31.000 Like, that's literally, you're a wigger.

02:16:33.000 You are a wigger.

02:16:35.000 You are what that word means.

02:16:40.000 We fancy.

02:16:41.000 Yeah, we fancy.

02:16:43.000 We fancy like Applebee's.

02:16:45.000 It's like Applebee's isn't fancy, podunk.

02:16:49.000 And they're like, yeah, we know.

02:16:55.000 Fancy like Applebee's.

02:16:56.000 Fuck you, man.

02:16:58.000 I hate that.

02:17:00.000 That kind of thing.

02:17:05.000 But they love their Applebee's.

02:17:06.000 No, I don't think so.

02:17:20.000 Pete sent $100.

02:17:20.000 Gen X are fake rebels.

02:17:23.000 There's nothing gayer than punk, and any other black t-shirt subculture for that matter.

02:17:28.000 Hey, thank you for the big super chat.

02:17:30.000 They are fake rebels.

02:17:31.000 Well, you know, because they were rebelling in like, what, the 70s, 80s, and 90s?

02:17:37.000 So they were rebelling against the dying gasp of a civilized order.

02:17:44.000 I mean, I know things were degenerate back then, but the leadership was

02:17:49.000 I don't know.

02:18:06.000 So that's no longer punk.

02:18:09.000 That's no longer a rebellion.

02:18:11.000 It's not a rebellion to do drugs.

02:18:13.000 Everybody does drugs.

02:18:14.000 It's not a rebellion to be promiscuous.

02:18:17.000 Everybody's promiscuous.

02:18:18.000 And you know what?

02:18:19.000 Promiscuity is gay.

02:18:21.000 That's what we realized.

02:18:22.000 That's what we collectively realized in the last 10 years is that

02:18:29.000 The most promiscuous people in the world are faggots.

02:18:32.000 The most promiscuous people in the world are literally gay dick suckers and trannies.

02:18:38.000 You know, so all these pug people were like, fuck you dad, I'm gonna, you know, I'm gonna have sex with a stripper, I'm gonna marry a stripper because I don't care about social norms and marriage or whatever.

02:18:50.000 And then, you know, an average gay man, like literally any gay man was like,

02:18:58.000 Was like, I'll raise you a thousand bodies.

02:19:02.000 I was like, Beth, I'll raise you 1,000 bodies, you know.

02:19:07.000 Your average like punk rock guy, your average punk rocker was like, fuck you dad, I'll have sex with a bunch of women, like seven.

02:19:17.000 I'll have sex with like ten women.

02:19:21.000 And then literally any gay man was like, oh really?

02:19:24.000 I've had sex with a thousand men.

02:19:26.000 I've had sex with ten thousand other people.

02:19:31.000 And trannies came along and said, well, I'm in a polycule and I cut my dick off and I'm into everything and anything you can imagine.

02:19:41.000 I'm into the sickest, most perverse things.

02:19:46.000 So, clearly that's not, uh, clearly that's not really anything anymore.

02:19:53.000 To be punk rock, it's not edgy, and it's not even extreme.

02:19:57.000 Like, you know, a punk rocker goes out today and does what a punk rocker did back then, and it's mild.

02:20:06.000 Any of it.

02:20:06.000 Drug, sex, any of it.

02:20:08.000 Swearing.

02:20:10.000 Drag queens are more offensive than punk rockers.

02:20:12.000 Drag queens blaspheme Jesus Christ.

02:20:17.000 And a punk rocker is like, whoa, even that's like too far.

02:20:20.000 Hey, come on, man.

02:20:22.000 You know?

02:20:25.000 So... Yeah.

02:20:32.000 It's a joke.

02:20:33.000 It's a total dead end.

02:20:34.000 That whole thing.

02:20:35.000 And you're right, it is gay.

02:20:36.000 Because that's... Honestly, all those behaviors are gay.

02:20:40.000 Okay?

02:20:40.000 It makes you gay.

02:20:42.000 These people going out and doing that stuff.

02:20:44.000 It's just straight up gay.

02:20:45.000 Nothing gayer than that.

02:20:54.000 Oh, that's okay.

02:20:54.000 Thanks.

02:21:03.000 No, I'm 100% Trump all the way.

02:21:03.000 Seraphim Rose?

02:21:04.000 You think I don't know who that is?

02:21:30.000 Isn't that who wrote that about nihilism?

02:21:32.000 Or am I thinking of a different book?

02:21:35.000 Bro's like, oh, uh, there's this author named Seraphim Rose.

02:21:39.000 You ever heard of him?

02:21:40.000 No!

02:21:41.000 Oh, who's that?

02:21:42.000 I didn't get red-pilled seven years ago.

02:21:46.000 Uh, yeah, sure.

02:21:46.000 Yeah, why not?

02:21:50.000 I'm not Orthodox, though, just so you know.

02:21:52.000 Just a heads up, I will never be Eastern Orthodox.

02:21:55.000 But, sure.

02:21:57.000 Who?

02:21:57.000 I don't know what you're talking about.

02:21:58.000 Very good, well done.

02:22:20.000 Okay.

02:22:21.000 Got it.

02:22:21.000 Totally understand.

02:22:23.000 Thanks.

02:22:23.000 Yeah, I don't think that's true.

02:22:24.000 I think you're just wrong about that.

02:22:46.000 Christo underscore fascist sent three dollars.

02:22:48.000 What are your eschatological beliefs?

02:22:51.000 Catholic Church doesn't seem to have a clear position.

02:22:54.000 I personally think all Bible prophecy was fulfilled by 70 AD and we are in the kingdom of heaven.

02:22:59.000 That's what, that is what Catholics believe.

02:23:01.000 Catholics believe that like the mark of the beast was Nero and so what we're called, I think it's millenarians, so we think that

02:23:15.000 Like you say we're in the age of the church and I tend to agree but I don't know I don't have very strong feelings on it because I feel like it's something that we can't know so it doesn't really change.

02:23:28.000 I don't like people that are fixated on the end of the world because

02:23:34.000 You know, whenever the end of the world comes, it really doesn't matter because we're all going to die eventually.

02:23:40.000 So, you know, whether you die today, tomorrow, and whether that coincides with when everyone else dies, it almost doesn't even matter.

02:23:51.000 The point is that the Lord will return, and we're not going to know when, and we don't want to be caught off guard.

02:23:59.000 You know, that's the parable, right?

02:24:02.000 So I almost don't even like the apocalyptic stuff that I think a lot of Catholics indulge in.

02:24:10.000 Whenever people say stuff like, well, I think we're in the end times, I cringe because I'm like, well, we're all in the end times because we all have to die.

02:24:17.000 You know, I mean, if somebody said the end times is in 50 years, you know, it's like, well, you could die any day within those 50 years.

02:24:30.000 Someone says the end times is upon us in five years the world's gonna end.

02:24:34.000 It's like you could easily die within five years.

02:24:37.000 So what difference does it make if the whole world ends or if you just die?

02:24:41.000 One of those will happen within your lifetime.

02:24:43.000 One of those things will happen within 70 years, 80 years or whatever, you know?

02:24:49.000 So I'm not preoccupied with it at all for that reason.

02:24:54.000 I think it's almost like a distraction because we can't we can't alter it.

02:24:58.000 We can't change it It's all got to end at some point and it's gonna end for us before or during that so You know So that's why I think it's interesting to read about and everything but there's no urgency there's no there's no like

02:25:21.000 I don't feel any desire to get to the bottom of it, because it's like... I would almost be disturbed.

02:25:28.000 I kind of want it to be a surprise.

02:25:30.000 Would you want to know when the world is going to end?

02:25:32.000 Because that would just freak me out.

02:25:33.000 Like that movie Knowing with Nicolas Cage.

02:25:37.000 That movie freaks me out.

02:25:38.000 I don't want to know.

02:25:39.000 But let it surprise me.

02:25:43.000 If the world is going to end, I'm going to hedge my bets here and say, if the world... I don't want to die suddenly.

02:25:49.000 But if the world ends,

02:25:51.000 I kind of want it to be like, oh, it's ending tomorrow.

02:25:54.000 And I'm like, okay, well, now I don't have to freak out about it.

02:25:57.000 Because if the world were ending, I wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it.

02:26:00.000 I wouldn't be able to get out of bed.

02:26:02.000 You know?

02:26:02.000 So let it be revealed like the day before, so then I don't have to be anxious for a long time.

02:26:09.000 I'll just be like, oh, damn.

02:26:10.000 Well, guess it's tomorrow.

02:26:12.000 Time to go get my favorite food and go to confession, you know?

02:26:19.000 Anyway.

02:26:19.000 It's apparent there is a big overreaching donor slash group promoting different factions but the same message.

02:26:25.000 You agreeing with TRS on Oliver Anthony and the Karen question reveals this to me.

02:26:30.000 Why?

02:26:31.000 Because TRS and I agree on Oliver Anthony?

02:26:34.000 I wouldn't know what Oliver Anthony or what TRS's take on Oliver Anthony is because I've never listened to a single one of their podcasts.

02:26:43.000 Nor do I think anybody else does either.

02:26:46.000 I've also hated poor people forever, so I don't think that's like a big coincidence.

02:26:51.000 Because they have no political agency, so Jews will remain in control of the system.

02:26:55.000 And...

02:27:13.000 They'll be able to protect themselves like they do now.

02:27:17.000 So... I mean, at the end of the day, they control the media, Hollywood, the government, finance.

02:27:24.000 So what do you mean by that?

02:27:25.000 They're gonna kill them and take their property?

02:27:27.000 The Jews are gonna get Securitron robots to hit them with an anti-material laser and vaporize their entire existence before they think about it in the future because they control capital.

02:27:40.000 So, you just clearly don't really understand how any of this works.

02:27:44.000 I don't know why that's bad, I think that's a reasonable thing to say.

02:27:49.000 I'm in favor of banning it, but I mean, that is how it starts, is by age restricting it.

02:28:05.000 Dimitri sent $5.

02:28:07.000 Thanks for the late night content, helps me get through my econ homework.

02:28:22.000 Nah you're good.

02:28:24.000 Evarist Galwa sent $3.

02:28:26.000 Didn't you say that Israeli Orthodox Jews wanted to get control over the Middle East to build the Third Temple and bring on the end times?

02:28:33.000 Did you change your mind or something?

02:28:35.000 Uh, no, I still believe that.

02:28:38.000 But that's Jews, not Catholics.

02:28:41.000 I'm saying that is, that is what they want to do.

02:28:45.000 And they talk about it openly, they say that, because they believe they're Antichrist, er, well, it's our Antichrist, their Messiah.

02:28:53.000 They believe that their Messiah hasn't come yet, so they're waiting for a, the so-called conquering Messiah, a political leader who is Jewish, who will come out of Israel,

02:29:03.000 I don't know.

02:29:24.000 John Andrews sent $3.

02:29:26.000 I love the old punk rockers in black, three-quarters length cargo shorts, and long, finched-at-length hair but they are obviously bald.

02:29:34.000 They are committed to nothing in their lives but a crappy aesthetic.
