00:00:53.000But what's interesting about the poll is that if you look at Americans' support for BLM and the rate at which Americans believe that George Floyd was murdered, both of those numbers are being cut down by double digits.
00:01:08.000More than 60% of Americans thought that George Floyd was murdered last year.
00:01:28.000We'll also be talking tonight about Governor Greg Abbott of Texas, who today on Twitter called Gab, which is run by my friend Andrew Torba, anti Semitic.
00:01:43.000We don't know all the details yet, but it seems as though he's proposing or backing state legislation to go after Gab, the free speech alternative to Twitter, because it is a quote anti Semitic platform.
00:02:43.000We'll talk about all that, and it should be a good show.
00:02:45.000Before we get into any of that, just want to remind you to follow me on Telegram.

00:03:06.000Follow the official America First Telegram channel, which is t.meslash afupdates, and that's going to have all the updates about the show, the movement.
00:04:09.000Big announcement yesterday, in case you missed it.
00:04:11.000We now have an official website for the America First Foundation, which, if you don't know what that is, the America First Foundation is my 501c4 nonprofit.
00:04:23.000That is the organization that was responsible for AFPAC.
00:04:27.000I'm the president of that organization.
00:04:31.000Going to serve as a vehicle for all kinds of America First related activities in the years to come, all kinds of different things, everything you can imagine.
00:04:40.000So, we've got an official website, and the website is America First Foundation.org.
00:05:43.000I don't know if we have it up there anymore because it was embedded through YouTube and our YouTube channel that we were hosting that video on just got banned this afternoon.
00:07:49.000Today, Governor Greg Abbott, Republican governor of Texas, put out a short video.
00:07:56.000And in the video, he's flanked by a couple of state legislators from Texas, this guy King and this guy Goldman.
00:08:05.000And behind him is, I believe it's the Texas flag and an Israeli flag.
00:08:12.000And in the video, he says that anti Semitic platforms like Gab do not represent the values of Texas.
00:08:21.000And I'll read you the full transcript in a moment, but the gist of it is he calls Gab, which you may have heard of before, I'm sure at this point.
00:08:30.000Gab is the free speech alternative to Twitter.
00:09:36.000What does represent Texas values is legislation like this by Representative King and Representative Goldman that fights anti Semitism in Texas.
00:09:47.000And I went on the Texas state legislature website to try to find the bill in question.
00:09:53.000There's no press release about this, there's no news coverage of it yet.
00:09:59.000I did find a bill that was sponsored by Representative King, and it was to create a commission to fight anti Semitism.
00:10:06.000And I believe this bill was proposed last month, but that's all I could find that contained the words anti Semitism or anything pertaining to social media.
00:10:16.000That was the only relevant search query.
00:10:19.000So I'm not sure if he's talking about that or something else, but this is what we have to go with right now.
00:10:25.000And honestly, we don't really need much more information other than this.
00:10:29.000I look at that video and I see in that, really, in that frame, when I see that video and the visual and the message, that's Everything that's wrong with the Republican Party.
00:10:45.000Everything that's wrong with the Republican Party.
00:10:49.000Because Texas is obviously a conservative stronghold.
00:10:52.000And Greg Abbott is its Republican governor.
00:10:56.000And at a time when, and there's sort of two arguments here.
00:11:00.000And the first one is this at a time when big tech censorship threatens the very existence of the American political right, is Governor Greg Abbott talking about That?
00:11:13.000I mean, sure, he has talked about that in the past.
00:11:17.000But when this is going on, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, all of them, even ones that you're not that familiar with, like TikTok or Pinterest or smaller ones, Shopify, MailChimp, things like that, at a time when every part of big tech is censoring conservatives, the Republican governor of Texas is going after Gab?
00:11:43.000Gab is part of the solution to big tech censorship.
00:12:02.000But Gab, as an alternative to Twitter in itself, and Gab representing the most successful alternative tech venture maybe to date and the most viable, is part of the solution to big tech.
00:12:16.000And you've got the Republican governor of the biggest Republican state.0.80
00:12:22.000He goes on video and calls it an anti Semitic platform?
00:12:27.000And in the first place, before we even get into the argument about what's wrong with that, which I think you could see where it's going, what exactly is an anti Semitic platform?
00:12:39.000Because if we are to understand that anti Semitism means, and there are many definitions, I could probably spend 15 minutes on this.
00:12:49.000If we as, you know, common sense people can understand anti Semitism to mean, Anti Jewish remarks.
00:12:57.000Jewish people are not the only Semitic people, and of course, many organizations have a far more expansive definition of anti Semitism than that.
00:13:08.000That's not what this show is about, although we may get into that in a moment.
00:13:11.000But if we're to understand that a common sense definition of anti Semitism is anti Jewish sentiment or remarks or something, we could say that something that somebody says is anti Jewish, or a person might be anti Jewish, or an organization might be anti Jewish.
00:13:44.000How is a free speech platform, how could that possibly be anti Jewish?
00:13:52.000The very nature of a free speech platform is that it is supposed to be content neutral, that it doesn't have Editorial censorship policies or publishing policies or anything like that.
00:14:04.000The point is that all it is is the platform.
00:14:08.000Now, people very well may put anti Semitic or anti Jewish content on the website, but you could just as easily put pro Jewish content, you could put anti anything content on there, you could put anything that is protected by the law on the platform.0.72
00:14:27.000Anti Semitism is protected by the First Amendment.0.67
00:14:29.000Anti Semitism is legal in the United States of America as far as expression goes.0.87
00:14:35.000Is the First Amendment anti Semitic?0.54
00:14:37.000Is the United States of America anti Semitic?
00:14:40.000Is freedom and free speech anti Semitic?
00:14:43.000That seems to be what Governor Greg Abbott is implying.
00:14:47.000Because how else could neutrality be framed in such a way?
00:14:53.000They're not saying that there's any particular content on the platform that is a certain thing, that is anti Jewish.
00:15:00.000They're not saying that a certain content creator Using the platform to publish their content is anti Semitic.
00:15:07.000They're saying the neutral free speech platform itself is that way.0.75
00:15:14.000And so, what then is the natural consequence?0.68
00:15:16.000We're supposed to believe, according to a Republican governor and two Republican state legislators, that freedom itself, free expression itself, is anti Semitic.0.93
00:15:29.000That's the logical conclusion of what they're saying.0.62
00:15:33.000So, you got to ask yourself which is more important to the Republican Party?0.78
00:15:38.000Kowtowing to a Jewish lobby or the First Amendment?0.58
00:17:15.000And we know that these kinds of organizations put up money for politicians.
00:17:22.000All of this is just a mechanical description of what happens in government.
00:17:27.000And we can then logically deduce that you get a video like this because of a chain of donor money, special interest groups, I'm sure propping up his reelection campaign, which is rapidly coming up next year, to put out a video like this.
00:17:42.000And I said this on Twitter, I guess this is like the ultimate litmus test for America first, if there was any.
00:18:14.000And we were told that this is a choice we would never have to make.
00:18:17.000I remember during the Groyper War back in 2019, somebody went to one of Charlie Kirk from Turning Point USA, went to one of his events.
00:18:27.000And said, if you were the president and you had to make a decision that would benefit the United States but came at the expense of Israel, would you make that decision?
00:18:35.000And Charlie Kirk said, well, that would never happen because they're our closest ally and those decisions never have to be made.
00:18:43.000Well, that was not true because here we are.
00:18:47.000And here we have Governor Greg Abbott saying that the free speech platform, the most viable, most successful alt tech platform, free speech alternative to Twitter, He is saying that that's anti Semitic because apparently of the fact that anti Semitic content can be posted on a free speech platform.
00:19:09.000So he's either now advancing legislation to target Gab or he's just highlighting, by contrast, legislation which has nothing to do with Gab that is supposed to fight anti Semitism in an abstract way or something.
00:19:23.000Either way, he's attacking Gab and he's calling the very premise and foundation of the platform anti Semitic.
00:19:32.000As an American, how do you feel about this as a conservative?0.96
00:19:35.000How do you feel about this as a digital refugee who has had your free speech taken away from you?
00:19:41.000You've been censored and silenced.0.70
00:19:43.000Nobody in government has done anything about it, anything worthwhile that's actually made a difference.
00:19:50.000And this is now what you're being told by your Republican representatives.
00:19:53.000This is what you're being told by your Republican governor that the platform run by a Christian conservative who is a human being like us, that if you go on that platform and engage with it, that you're somehow anti Semitic.
00:20:15.000And this is, like I said, epitomizes what goes on in the GOP.
00:20:20.000And back to the original point, to take a step back and highlight the added context, we as conservatives, as America firsters, Trump supporters, we have been under assault by big tech for the past five years.
00:20:36.000And a lot of left wing people mock us and laugh at us and ridicule us, but this has been detrimental because in a lot of cases, It's hurting us politically.
00:20:47.000It's hurting our ability to win elections.
00:20:49.000It's hurting our ability to advocate for issues.
00:20:52.000We cannot participate in the democracy, in the so called free society, in a strictly political way.
00:21:01.000But what's more is people like me, the deplatforming and censorship goes even above and beyond that.
00:21:58.000He built an alternative to Twitter that could not be censored in spite of all the efforts to censor him.
00:22:07.000He built a network where conservatives could take advantage of mass media and the internet and social media when Facebook, Twitter wouldn't allow it and government wouldn't do anything about it.
00:22:20.000And Governor Greg Abbott calls that anti Semitic?
00:22:24.000Now, conservatives who have done nothing and won't even talk about it, they're now going to turn around on Andrew Torba and call him anti Jewish for doing something about it?
00:23:04.000Let's see the great Republican governor of Texas, or even, you know, we had four years of Donald Trump for what it's worth, and these great Supreme Court justices and federal judges and everybody else.
00:23:18.000I won't hold my breath for the day when any of them does anything that actually makes a difference in my life to the good on any issue, let alone tech censorship.
00:23:30.000But he's going to go on Twitter today and say, We take a stand against anti Semitic platforms because a Jewish donor has his hand so far up his crippled ass like a puppet.
00:24:13.000Why else would anybody say that unless they worked for the Daily Beast or unless they worked for Right Wing Watch or the Huffington Post or MSNBC?
00:24:48.000How else are you going to go up against all the left wing power structures in America from academia to Hollywood to the news media to the regular mainstream media to the federal government and the Natset community?
00:25:03.000And everything that's arrayed against us if we don't have the equalizer that is the internet and social media.
00:25:10.000How are we going to do issue advocacy?
00:25:15.000How are we going to run in elections and win primaries and generals if you don't have access to the internet in the 21st century, in the 2020s, and beyond?
00:25:29.000And you have to understand the gravity of this issue to understand the severity and the seriousness of this betrayal.
00:25:39.000Anybody who could do anything about big tech censorship is a hero for you if you believe in America, if you want to preserve the historic American nation.
00:25:48.000Because only if we can solve that problem can we protect our people and our country and our way of life.
00:25:54.000Anybody that is furthering that end should be a hero.
00:25:58.000And the Republican elected, elected by Republicans, governor of Texas is going to call Andrew Torba, a good man, by the way.
00:26:10.000A good Christian conservative man, he's going to call him anti Semitic and the whole effort and the platform anti Semitic glibly.
00:26:18.000And go and watch that video if you're not mad enough already.
00:26:21.000Go watch how glibly he says anti Semitic platforms like Gab have no place in Texas with a stupid, dumb grin on his face while our country burns, while your kids are getting chemically castrated, while our country's being raped to death by global special interests.
00:26:40.000And this is what the GOP chooses time and time and time again.
00:26:45.000This is what they choose the donors and the special interests ahead of you and ahead of victory for our country.
00:27:05.000It's a 25 second video, it tells you everything you need to know about what's going on with the Republican Party.
00:27:11.000These three idiots smiling glibly with a foreign flag in the background, calling again a hero of our movement, an entrepreneur, anti Semitic, calling free speech anti Semitic.
00:27:27.000But they're going to raise a lot of money off their email lists, and they're going to raise so much money telling you how they're going to fight big tech censorship and they're going to stand up for free speech against the socialists and against cancel culture.
00:27:47.000This is why we have to destroy the GOP.
00:27:49.000Governor Greg Abbott, because of this.
00:27:52.000If for no other reason, I hear he's a terrible governor for other reasons, but if for no other reason, Governor Greg Abbott cannot be allowed to win another term as governor because of this alone.
00:28:05.000You may have other reasons, but this has got to be politically lethal.
00:28:29.000Not in the primary, not in the general.
00:28:31.000And I don't live in Texas, I live in Illinois.
00:28:33.000I live under a Democratic governor, totally Democratic state legislature.
00:28:38.000I live in Cook County on the periphery of a Democratic city, Chicago.
00:28:44.000So, I'm not going to speak for Texas, but I could tell you this much.
00:28:47.000I would not vote for a Republican like Governor Greg Abbott in Illinois.
00:28:52.000I don't care if he's a Republican, Democrat, how conservative he is, if they're doing stuff like this, you can't vote for him.
00:29:02.000And you'll get bad things with Democrats.
00:29:04.000You may get bad things with other politicians, but at least you're not participating in a humiliation ritual where you're voting for somebody to stab you in the back.
00:29:14.000I'll take a defeat at the hands of my enemy any day of the week before I suffer humiliation supporting traitors.
00:29:21.000And that's got to be the mentality across the board in 2022, 2024, and every election going forward.
00:29:29.000Because it can't get much worse than this, honestly.
00:32:22.000It's a disgusting libel on Andrew Torba.
00:32:25.000And, you know, that he would say something like this, that they would say something like that, it is like a throwaway remark, but that they would even dare to say something like that with such an important issue, it's dire.
00:32:41.000And so glibly attacking one of the only people that's doing something good on this issue, one of the only people that.
00:32:49.000Moving the ball down the field and doing anything real in real life that actually helps people.
00:32:55.000You know, I can go on gab.com and post.
00:32:59.000I can go on gab.com and post something uncensored.
00:33:04.000And it wasn't easy for him to build that.
00:33:06.000And that's more than I can say about anything that Governor Greg Abbott ever did or any of these Republicans ever did.
00:33:44.000You know, no, Governor, Senator, Representative, really.
00:33:48.000I mean, you could tell I'm a little bit hot about it, but seriously, because it cannot be overstated what an important issue tech censorship is.
00:33:57.000You could see the way the country is going, and that is in no small part due to the fact that conservatives have been systematically taken off of the internet.
00:34:07.000We can't advocate, we can't speak, we can't report the facts.
00:34:14.000I mean, that's like the single biggest driver of this totalitarian liberal hell that we're living in.
00:35:10.000And we're going up against Google, Facebook, all these different things, and we're going at it alone.
00:35:17.000And we're going at it risking almost everything because it's the right thing, it's necessary, we recognize the importance of it, and we're getting our ankles slashed, or we're getting kneecapped by our own side.
00:35:31.000These petty snipes from people like Abbott and every other conservative.
00:39:11.000You know, nobody else is going to say this.
00:39:14.000People can call themselves America First, and they often do.
00:39:17.000And people say similar things to me, but they're never going to say the things that I say.
00:39:21.000You could turn into a certain podcast, you could check out certain people, people that are still on Clubhouse, and they're having a conversation about industrial policy.
00:39:33.000They're having a conversation about multiracial working class populism.1.00
00:39:41.000And, you know, people are going to say something approximating what I say, like, oh, we need to do trade protection and we need to secure our borders.0.97
00:39:50.000But are they really going to tell you the whole truth?
00:40:37.000I want to talk about the George Floyd poll.
00:40:39.000Very interesting stuff from Ipsos and USA Today.
00:40:44.000And this is all very relevant because the Derek Chauvin trial is coming up.
00:40:48.000Derek Chauvin is, of course, the police officer that apprehended George Floyd, and then George Floyd died in his custody in something that was almost unrelated completely.
00:40:59.000And the trial is whether or not Derek Chauvin will be charged with murder.
00:41:06.000They're going to decide did Derek Chauvin kill George Floyd, or was it negligence, or maybe he didn't even do anything wrong at all.
00:41:15.000But, excuse me, I got the hiccups a little bit.
00:42:02.000I mean, I get mad enough as it is, but you crank up the heat a little bit, it gets a little uncomfortable under the suit, and that's what produces the content.
00:42:10.000You know, you've got these people, and they're in their very nice clothes, and they're in a temperature controlled room, and they've got like, they've all got the same wooden facade background, and they're all just sort of hanging around.
00:43:39.000The article says Americans' trust in the Black Lives Matter movement has fallen and their faith in local law enforcement has risen since protests demanding social justice swept the nation last year, according to an exclusive USA Today Ipsos poll.
00:43:55.000The debate over the intersection of racism and policing will be in the spotlight again as jury selection opens on Monday in the Minneapolis trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin and the death of George Floyd.
00:44:07.000Which sparked nationwide marches last year and riots, we should add.
00:44:13.000Not just marches, but also a lot of looting and rioting and killing.
00:44:53.000Uncertainty has grown about how to characterize the incident caught on video when Chauvin held his knee on Floyd's neck and ignored his protests that he couldn't breathe.
00:45:03.000Last year, 4% said they didn't know how to describe it.
00:45:16.000Fewer than one third of white people, just 28%, feel that way.
00:45:22.000White Americans are more likely to describe it instead as the police officer's negligence.
00:45:28.00033% compared with 16% of black respondents.
00:45:33.000That said, Americans who have heard at least something about Chauvin's trial say 4 to 1, or 60 to 15%, that they hope Chauvin is convicted.
00:45:42.000That included 54% of white Americans and 76% of black Americans.
00:45:48.000Last June, amid accusations of systemic racism in law enforcement, 60% of Americans expressed trust in the BLM movement to promote justice and equal treatment of people, compared with 56% who trusted local police to do that.
00:46:04.000Now, however, attitudes have shifted significantly.
00:46:07.000Trust in BLM has fallen to 50% from 60%.
00:46:11.000Trust in local police and law enforcement has risen to 69% from 60%.
00:46:18.000Black Americans and white Americans now express very different views.
00:46:22.00075% of black people, but just 42% of white people, express trust in BLM, while 77% of white people, but just 42% of black people, trust local police.
00:46:38.000So these are some pretty staggering numbers.
00:46:41.000Obviously, in less than a year, everything has reversed.
00:46:46.000The support for BLM, the belief that George Floyd's death was a murder, belief that Derek Chauvin should be convicted.
00:46:53.000Support for police, it's almost all flipped.
00:46:59.000And this to me is a very important thing to consider.
00:47:04.000Because a lot of conservatives, a lot of people these days like to write off race.
00:47:08.000They want to pretend it doesn't exist.
00:47:10.000They are pretending that race is, at best, at most, an inconvenient diversion from class conflict.
00:47:20.000That's the most that conservatives are willing to say.
00:47:23.000That race, while salient, while relevant, Is just a diversion created by the power structure to distract the people, the working class, from class conflict, from lowering wages and quality of life and everything.
00:47:42.000The minimum that they'll say is that race doesn't exist.0.69
00:47:45.000It's nothing, and actually, we should be the party of reparations and criminal justice reform and so on.
00:47:51.000But this is the spectrum of views, acceptable views, among American conservatives.
00:47:58.000You know, the most liberal conservatives from people like Jared Kushner and Nikki Haley and Tim Scott who say we need to be the party of BLM all the way through to Tucker Carlson who says, well, you know, racial conflict is occurring, but it shouldn't because it's just this power play by the media and by big corporations to distract people from their lowering standards of living.
00:48:23.000Unfortunately, none of that is good enough.
00:48:25.000That entire spectrum is not sufficient, it does not adequately describe what's going on.
00:48:33.000Because you could see in this poll that there's a racial divide.
00:48:37.000More black people than white people support BLM.
00:48:40.000More black people than white people are skeptical of the police.
00:48:43.000More black people than white people think that George Floyd was murdered.
00:48:46.000And more black people than white people want to see Derek Chauvin convicted by a big margin.
00:48:52.000And we all have the same set of facts, right?
00:49:00.000We all saw the BLM protests and everything.
00:49:04.000So, what accounts then for the disparity?
00:49:07.000Well, some people would like us to believe that attitudes on these issues are disparate because of the different lived experiences of black and white people.
00:49:18.000Some people look at this disparity and they'll say, well, the reason that black people think that George Floyd was murdered is because of their experience as black people, which white people just can't understand.
00:49:32.000Or they'll say that black people are being manipulated or brainwashed by the media.
00:49:38.000But both of these explanations are not really satisfactory because, as far as brainwashing goes, white people are watching the same media that black people are.
00:49:48.000And there is just as much, maybe the same, if not more, social stigma associated with being a racist if you're white, as opposed to being a black conservative, just as much, at least, and maybe more.
00:50:01.000If you're white and you come out and say George Floyd wasn't murdered in a liberal city or anywhere for that matter, You can't say that in a play company.
00:50:28.000I don't understand actually how a black and a white person's experience would even factor in if it's the same set of facts, the same video, all other things being equal.0.56
00:50:38.000How would one experience lead you to believe that something radically different occurred on video?0.62
00:50:43.000As opposed to somebody else watching it, I don't think either of these explanations are adequate.0.96
00:50:49.000What we have to understand is that, and this is the most obvious, it's the simplest, it's the most obvious, and the most common sense, is that blacks are biased.0.90
00:51:02.000Black people see a black guy being kneeled on by a white cop, and because the victim is black, like them, they're more sympathetic to him.0.62
00:51:14.000White people don't seem to have that same bias that blacks do.0.77
00:51:19.000White people don't tend to view blacks.0.63
00:51:21.000These interracial incidents through a racial lens.
00:51:26.000When white people look at a white victim and black perpetrator, they tend not to view it in the same way, almost the opposite.
00:51:33.000For example, when we saw the high profile killing of Molly Tibbetts by an illegal immigrant who was Hispanic in Iowa, Molly Tibbetts' father, the father of his daughter, was murdered by an illegal immigrant.
00:51:46.000He said that Mexicans are the same as us, Hispanics are the same as white people, they just have better food.
00:52:06.000We saw this with Rodney King and O.J. Simpson.
00:52:10.000And we've seen it many times throughout American history.
00:52:13.000And it seems that whether the media is for or against, whatever the experience is, the constant is the racial bias, the in group preference.
00:52:26.000That black people have this prejudice that they see somebody on the ground and it doesn't actually even matter what the facts are.
00:52:34.000It doesn't matter what the video or the evidence shows.
00:52:38.000What matters is that person looks like them, is like them, is of them, is one of them, and therefore they're going to interpret it as such.0.82
00:52:50.000They're going to interpret it in the worst way possible if it's a white killer and a black victim.0.90
00:52:59.000If it's a black criminal, if it's a black killer, they interpret it in the most charitable way possible.0.98
00:53:04.000Are any black people talking about how George Floyd was a drug dealer, a criminal, a drug user, somebody who robbed a pregnant woman at gunpoint with five of his friends?0.99
00:53:13.000I don't see anybody talking about that for the most part.0.96
00:53:16.000And that's not to say that there are no black people that think that George Floyd was not murdered.
00:53:24.000It's not to say that there are no black conservatives or no black people that see what's going on here.0.61
00:53:28.000We're talking about the disparity and what accounts for the disparity.0.79
00:53:32.000What accounts for the disparity, very plainly, is a racial bias and a racial preference on the part of black people.
00:53:53.000The only difference is there's only one people, there is only one group of people that is taught to repress that innate and intrinsic characteristic.
00:54:03.000And I think you know who I'm talking about.
00:54:06.000Because when it comes to black people, the media and Hollywood and all of that, they are complicit in accommodating those biases.
00:54:14.000They don't talk about how George Floyd was a criminal.
00:54:16.000They don't talk about how Trayvon Martin and his fake girlfriend took the stand.
00:54:27.000They indulge the favorable story, the biased story that paints.
00:54:33.000George Floyd as the gentle giant, and Derek Chauvin as the Ku Klux Klan, neo Nazi white supremacist, murderer, slave catcher, slave enforcer, whatever.
00:54:57.000Tap them on the shoulder and say, hey, you know, I know you're completely ignoring the medical record or the autopsy examination from Hennepin County that said that George Floyd died of a drug overdose and not due to asphyxiation.
00:55:12.000But, you know, we may disagree on that.0.52
00:55:15.000You think that all white people are evil.
00:56:13.000We can't just ignore it and shove it down and say, okay, well, let's just not talk about that because it makes us uncomfortable and we don't agree on that.
00:57:09.000And, you know, Asians in like California and other places, they're finding out what Black Lives Matter may actually mean.
00:57:16.000So, you know, it's even more complicated than just black and white.
00:57:19.000There's other demographics too that are interacting.
00:57:23.000And the point is that all of these different racial identities, they matter to people.
00:57:28.000And they matter to some people more than others.
00:57:30.000And if this big part of their identity matters a lot to a big part of the population, which is politically outspoken and obviously wields a disproportionate amount of political power, then that matters.
00:57:43.000That has consequences for our lives and for our country.
00:57:46.000And we have to think about it in those terms, in reality.
00:57:49.000Not the way we want things to be, not the way that things ought to be, but the way that things are.
00:57:57.000I wish that white, black, and Hispanic and Asian people could all get together and say, let's overthrow.
00:58:03.000The oligarchy, let's have a president that is truly putting the people first.
00:58:09.000I would love that, but unfortunately, it's not that simple, and it's not like that.
00:58:14.000Unfortunately, there's no evidence that there can be this kind of giant coalition that just sort of smooths over these issues because these issues are actually very salient for lots and lots of people, and they care about them, and they disagree strongly with us, and those disagreements matter.
00:58:32.000There's a tension there that's unresolved, and you can't ignore it.
00:58:36.000That's what I'm reading from all of this.
00:58:38.000It's O.J. Simpson, Rodney King, Trayvon Martin, all over again.
00:58:42.000And all the Blegsit and Platinum Plan and everything like that in the world is not going to overcome this.
00:59:02.000The Hennepin County medical examiner, this was the official autopsy, said that George Floyd died with fentanyl, methamphetamine, and In his system.
00:59:15.000What's more, he also tested positive for COVID.
00:59:19.000So he had a respiratory virus and he had two potent and lethal drugs in his system.
00:59:26.000And he died not due to his asphyxiation, not due to anything associated with a knee on his neck or anything like that.
00:59:33.000He died because of drug induced heart failure.
00:59:38.000That's what the official medical record says.
00:59:41.000It's not a matter of debate, it's not a matter of opinion, it's not a matter of lived experience.0.83
00:59:47.000Racism, or you know, black people tend to be Democrat because of the media, and what therefore they lack agency.0.89
00:59:54.000And then, what does that say, right?0.97
00:59:55.000It's not because of any of that, it is a fact that he was not murdered, he died from a drug overdose because he was a criminal, because he was a giant, non compliant criminal who was high on drugs.
01:00:11.000He was saying he couldn't breathe before he was on the ground, he was saying that while they were still trying to push him into the cop car.
01:00:18.000And that much is obvious if you watch the video and you review.
01:00:24.000And it seems like more white people are interested in the facts than other groups.
01:00:29.000And other groups are not interested in the facts because they are looking at it through the lens of race, the same way that they look at almost everything else through that lens.0.61
01:00:40.000And when this is a movement, BLM, and when this is a polity of black Americans that is wielding this outsized political power, this was the.
01:00:52.000Story of the summer last year and the source of billions of dollars in contributions from banks and corporations, it kind of matters that they're looking at it that way.0.70
01:01:45.000Everybody has to be totally in alignment, everybody's got to be totally in synchronicity with moving America forward.
01:01:53.000Not perfectly, not on minutiae, I'm not talking about details, but the basics.
01:01:58.000We want America to continue the way that it used to be.
01:02:03.000America, when it was a great country, we want some continuity with the founding fathers and the settlers at Plymouth Rock.
01:02:10.000We want some continuity from then into the future because it is that stock and that culture and that system which made America great.
01:02:18.000And we invite other people, not in numbers that are going to radically transform the demographics of the country, but we're inviting people to participate in that.
01:02:27.000And insofar as they're willing to enshrine that, elevate that, and protect and promote that, They will benefit from it and they are America first.
01:02:35.000But not if they're going to go out there saying George Floyd was murdered and that means America's evil and we have to disband the police and burn the flag and celebrate Juneteenth and everything else.
01:02:48.000That's the America First position on this.
01:02:50.000He can't afford to not address this.0.96
01:02:52.000America First must address all the head on challenges to the American nation, of which BLM and this antagonistic, resurgent, revanchist black identity, that challenge against America, it's got to be addressed.0.98
01:03:23.000Justice for my boy George Floyd, man!0.91
01:03:26.000It's like, don't you understand what's going on here?
01:03:28.000I mean, I put this on Twitter a long time ago.1.00
01:03:30.000You're going to have some bowtie fag who's going to be getting carjacked trying to explain, hey, man, The cathedral is an enemy of all of us.1.00
01:04:35.000I mean, and I, you know, I'm being a little bit funny.
01:04:38.000I know that's a little bit colorful and everything, but seriously, that's what we're talking about.
01:04:43.000I know that, you know, I'm now like a mainstream political guy ever since Half Pack and everything, and I know you're not supposed to talk like that.
01:04:52.000I should get my bow tie and get a little prop glass of whiskey and drink my little glass of whiskey with my bust of Teddy Roosevelt.
01:05:02.000Talk about it and invite, hey, welcome to the show, Josh Hawley.
01:05:56.000The whole country exploded over BLM, and half the country thinks riots and carjacking and murder is okay, and we're going to get rid of the police.
01:06:03.000And the other half wants to put America first.
01:06:05.000And some people are saying, let's just forget about all that and get rid of the curated interest provision.
01:07:41.000We've got Based Kyle who says, Why aren't more people aware of the $4 billion for minority farmers in the new stimulus, thanks to people like Warnock?
01:08:20.000And this guy's like, The Republican Party still not disavowed Representative Gosar for attending a white supremacist conference and retweeting a white supremacist motto.
01:08:31.000And I quote tweeted him and I said, America first is not a white supremacist motto.
01:10:47.000Theotokos Respector says, The Christian infighting I've been seeing online lately is seriously cringe.
01:10:53.000Yeah, I don't think BLM and Antifa will care whether we're Catholic, Orthodox, or Protestant when they're firebombing all our churches in a couple years.
01:14:16.000Philip L. says, I know Chauvin did nothing wrong, but given the behavior of police in the past year against Trump supporters and enforcing unconstitutional COVID orders, wouldn't it be a good opportunity to throw him under the bus as a message to the rest of the cops?
01:15:08.000Amfirst Investment says I know the point gets beaten to death, but it is so disgusting seeing our politicians get on their knees for another country.1.00
01:18:54.000Super Lionheart says, globalist MSM hacks calling phrases like MAGA and America First WN slogans shows they legitimately don't believe Americans have a right to advocate for their own interests.
01:19:06.000Obvious to many, but still blackpilling.
01:19:56.000We have to have loyalty, and whenever I see people that are supporting or around traitors, it's you know, I don't think that's a good thing.
01:20:05.000I don't think it's innocuous, I don't think it's benign.
01:20:08.000I understand what some people say oh, you know, they're friends or whatever, but you know, we're trying to do something here where we have a mission, we're all in this together, and when one person threatens the existence of this thing and this group and our mission, I don't think you could.
01:20:24.000Treat it like, oh, well, you know, they're ostracized on one level, but on another level, hey, we're totally okay.
01:20:30.000So I do actually think it matters for what it's worth.
01:22:00.000Pragmatic Culture says, on a trip down AF Memory Lane when I see the Halsey debate show up and recommended, he was so nasty and condescending that whole time, claiming no one would follow you and that you'd go nowhere.
01:23:01.000Epic Guy says, Once had some faggy liberal come up to me and Tell me these Hispanic immigrants are the future of this country because white Americans don't work hard.1.00
01:23:11.000His literal retard son was wearing a t shirt with Obama's face on it.1.00
01:23:15.000These are the kinds of people who are voting for the death of our country.1.00
01:23:18.000Yeah, that's how a lot of people feel.
01:23:37.000Stargazer says, in my district during the 2020 primary, Abbott endorsed a Second Amendment hating rhino cop over Jennifer Fleck, who is totally America first and based.
01:23:48.000The rhino won the primary but lost the election.
01:24:09.000Huey Long says, forgot to ask in my super chat earlier.
01:24:12.000Did you see that article about how Poland's LGBTQ free zones didn't let a gay French government official in?0.93
01:24:20.000Polish American Groyper must be proud.
01:24:22.000No, I didn't see that, but that sounds based.0.88
01:24:27.000John Anand says, whether it's Madison Cawthorn, Dan Crenshaw, now Greg Abbott, it looks like the one group of people Nick really has a problem with is the disabled.
01:24:56.000After his acquittal, he should be given his full back pay and reinstated to the force so that he may continue to protect the citizens of Minneapolis from dangerous criminals like George Floyd.
01:25:06.000I don't know if I'm pro Derek Chauvin so much as I'm anti George Floyd.
01:25:10.000Slade says people pretend like identity politics isn't literally the history of the entire world.
01:27:54.000As a high school senior, not much you could do, but once you turn 18 and graduate, then you could be an intern, you could join up, you know, and everything like that.
01:29:12.000I mean, I shouldn't be obligated to, and you can't tell me to, but I should.
01:29:17.000And I'm going to, and I'm going to, but get off my case.
01:29:21.000Everybody's always on top of me about that.
01:29:23.000It's like, I have to build a live streaming platform that's censorship proof, I have to build a 501c4, I have to put on a conference that rivals CPAC and everything else.
01:29:34.000I mean, I gotta do all this stuff college tour, and book, and movie, and everything.
01:29:40.000You know, that a political guy is expected to do, you ask me to do, and you gotta, and imagine if you were buff.
01:29:48.000Well, I don't really, frankly, have the time or the energy to be a bodybuilder, okay?
01:32:08.000David says, If Grinnell really supports Tranny so much, he should admit he's not gay, but a woman born in a man's body, but too transphobic to chop off his dick.
