In this episode of America First, host Nicholas J. Fuentes and co-host Alex Blumberg discuss the Chicago mayoral runoff, the murder of a powerful man in San Francisco, and the recent stabbing of a prominent entrepreneur in Chicago. They also discuss the election of a new mayor in Chicago, Brandon Johnson, who is a racist, anti-police lunatic. And, of course, they discuss the recent murder of the founder of CashApp, who was found stabbed to death in the streets of San Francisco and no one knows who did it.

00:04:04.000It was over yesterday with the Trump speech and the election in Wisconsin with their Supreme Court and it's over here.
00:04:14.000It's specifically over here also in Chicago.
00:04:17.000So we'll talk all about the election and
00:04:21.000What's gonna happen here with this guy?
00:04:23.000It's not gonna be pretty, it's gonna be very ugly, but I almost kind of want it to get uglier because one, I'm gonna leave.
00:04:32.000Two, it almost seems like nothing ever happens.
00:04:37.000It feels like, and I alluded to this the other night in the super chats, things get worse and worse but just incrementally, just very gradually
00:04:49.000And when you look back over a period of three or five years, it's noticeable, but year over year, not so much.
00:04:56.000So I kind of want the city to explode, but we'll talk all about that.
00:05:01.000We'll also be talking tonight, similarly, very much in the same vein, about the founder of Cash App, who was stabbed to death in San Francisco last night.
00:05:12.000Or I believe it was actually this morning.
00:06:36.000But I can't be the only one that feels a sense of cosmic justice when you see that a victim of a crime like this is a powerful person, as opposed to just some other white kid or student, or for that matter, even a black person, but somebody from just the neighborhood.
00:06:56.000Because of course the people that are typically the subject of this rapidly decaying society and all of its consequences are the middle class and the working poor.
00:07:09.000And they're not the ones that make the decisions.
00:07:11.000It's the elite and it's specifically somebody like this who is influential and according to his Twitter feed is talking about BLM and all the usual left-wing stuff
00:07:26.000And so when you see a guy like this get stabbed in San Francisco, it's like, hey, well, welcome to the club.
00:07:31.000Not like I got stabbed, but I've been a victim of crime out there.
00:07:35.000Like I said, I got my car broken into when I was out there in Los Angeles.
00:07:57.000It's been busy though, so it's actually nice to slow things down for a change of pace.
00:08:03.000It's been a very chaotic past couple weeks between the Trump indictment, this situation which seems like there's a lot of connected events,
00:08:13.000Uh, with this rapidly changing world order.
00:08:26.000And now there's talk about Paraguay breaking with the United States and no longer recognizing the sovereignty and independence of Taiwan.
00:08:34.000Seems like these things are moving very quickly, especially in the last few weeks.
00:08:39.000So today, it's our first slow day in a minute, but we'll cover all that stuff.
00:08:46.000Before we get into that though, I want to remind you to smash the follow button here on Cozy to get a push notification whenever I go live.
00:09:36.000But I'll be out of town next week, so no show at the end of the week.
00:09:40.000Might be Wednesday too, I'm not really sure yet, but I'll be doing a big collaboration out of town, so we'll be looking forward to that, but probably no show towards the end of the week.
00:10:54.000I just need, I just need some relief here.
00:10:59.000And she's, it's a nurse, and she comes in with her glasses and her ponytail and she goes,
00:11:05.000So what we're going to do is I'm going to spray your nose and it's going to be numb for about an hour and then I'm going to stick a camera.
00:12:55.000I just need your insurance information.
00:12:58.000Cuz I felt I felt kind of well, I mean I didn't feel bad, but listen I had to chase her down, but then we pull over and she's like this young girl She's 16, and I'm like hey, it's okay.
00:13:10.000I just needed to get your information.
00:13:36.000I was saying, you know, I understand if you, if you're driving down the street and you stop too late and you get in a fender bender, you rear end somebody, like I understand that.
00:13:49.000Or I understand if you're doing a lane change and you get in a crash.
00:13:55.000But there's a car in front of you, you just floor it?
00:17:18.000So our first story is about this Cash App founder, his name's Bob Lee, who got stabbed to death.
00:17:26.000In San Francisco, although it's not an uncommon thing, apparently in San Francisco the crime's just out of control.
00:17:32.000People say that if you go to San Francisco, what people there will do is they put a sign in their car window that says, the car is unlocked, do not break my window.
00:17:45.000There's so much vandalism and so much property theft that people just leave their cars open because they know that's going to get robbed and rather than have the car window broken, they say, hey, just go through my belongings because I rather that than you break the window, which it's very similar in L.A.
00:18:04.000And anyway, so as you know, the crime's been out of control in these major cities, especially on the West Coast, and now it's claimed a very high-profile victim, founder of Cash App, who was found dead this morning with two stab wounds.
00:18:17.000And this is a story from BBC that says, quote, the founder of the multi-billion dollar tech company Cash App, Bob Lee,
00:18:26.000Was fatally stabbed near downtown San Francisco on Tuesday.
00:18:30.000San Francisco police found a 43-year-old man with stab wounds and treated him before he later died in the hospital.
00:18:37.000His father confirmed that his son, who is also the ex-chief technology officer at Square, had been killed.
00:18:43.000San Francisco officials have been criticized for their response to a wave of violent crime in recent years.
00:18:49.000The California's San Francisco Police Department said officers responded to reports of a stabbing on Tuesday at around 2.35 local time.
00:18:58.000They found Mr. Lee unconscious on the ground with two stab wounds to his chest and they started to administer aid before rushing him to the San Francisco General Hospital.
00:19:08.000Mr. Lee's death has prompted renewed criticism of violent crime in the Californian city.
00:19:14.000Tesla founder and Twitter chief executive Elon Musk responded to tributes to Mr. Lee saying quote, violent crime in San Francisco is horrific and even if attackers are caught they are often released immediately.
00:19:28.000Data from 2021 shows that residents there face a 1 in 16 chance each year of being a victim of property or violent crime.
00:19:37.000Making the city more dangerous than 98% of U.S.
00:19:48.000A victim of either a violent or a property crime.
00:19:52.000And I would venture to guess that it's actually even more.
00:19:57.000Because I think if anything a lot of these studies will underestimate the crime because at a certain point you have a problem of recording.
00:21:23.000The fact that people aren't commuting to work, or that young people are out of school, something like that.
00:21:28.000Well, there was something else that happened in 2020 which I think also had a pretty significant impact on crime, which would be, you know, the death of George Floyd.
00:21:40.000In every one of these articles, and I've read a lot of them, when you cover crime, it's always about, since the pandemic, since the pandemic, since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic,
00:21:54.000I don't think to tell you the truth it has maybe it has a little something to do with the pandemic.
00:21:58.000I don't think for the most part it's the pandemic.
00:22:02.000As we know there is a cycle in this country and it's been going for a long time and it is a cycle which is that there will be no crime and then there's agitation for reduced policing and for opening up the prisons and this sort of thing and then
00:22:21.000To the surprise of nobody, the crime explodes.
00:22:24.000And then everybody gets an appetite for cracking down on the crime, and then we crack down on the crime, and then times are good, and then we get another cycle like this.
00:22:34.000And so here we are, in the middle of this cycle once again, where George Floyd is killed, and everybody protests the so-called police brutality, and the over-policing, and the militarization of the police, and the systemic racism, and
00:22:51.000As a result, the police stopped doing their job.
00:22:54.000Why would they go and risk their lives?
00:22:57.000to fight violent crime or solve violent crime if there's a high likelihood that they will literally be lynched.
00:23:05.000They will literally either literally be lynched by an actual lynch mob at their house or figuratively be lynched because they will be sent to jail for the rest of their lives or in some cases even potentially face the death penalty which was something discussed in the case of Derek Chauvin.
00:23:25.000Even when that doesn't happen, they don't have the support of the city.
00:23:30.000And the handcuffs are placed on them and their ability to police violent crime.
00:23:34.000That's even before you get to that point.
00:23:37.000So we know that it's got nothing to do or very little to do with the pandemic and everything to do with the response in the wake of George Floyd.
00:23:45.000I just want to point that out because you always, since the pandemic, know it's since George Floyd and this was the predictable outcome of defunding the police and of putting in place all these restrictive measures about chasing criminals and about rules of engagement and body cameras and all these kinds of things.
00:24:04.000And as a result you get totally wild out-of-control crime.
00:24:09.000And it's something interesting too about San Francisco which is that San Francisco is also one of the richest real estate markets in America.
00:24:19.000Or one of the most expensive I should say.
00:24:23.000And of course, San Francisco is also the seat of Silicon Valley.
00:24:27.000That's the major metro area where the literally the richest companies in the history of the world are headquartered.
00:24:36.000And not exactly in San Francisco, but that is the major metro area that serves Apple, that serves all the other big Silicon Valley big tech companies,
00:24:47.000And so here, maybe more than anywhere, you have, and we talked about this last night, you have on full display this anarcho-tyranny.
00:24:55.000Where on the one hand, you've got the tyranny of big tech, Silicon Valley's right in the backyard, and you've got all these problems of rent control, and so, and also you have
00:26:01.000And there are a lot of murders in other cities too, like Los Angeles, and New York, and Baltimore, but the point is, it's not just about San Francisco, it's about this is what the major American cities, they're just like this now.
00:26:14.000They're dirty, they're filled with homeless people, there is a massive inequality in wealth,
00:26:21.000And there's a reason for that, which I'll get into in a moment.
00:26:25.000And there's this rampant, violent crime that makes the city inhospitable.
00:27:49.000I don't want to see anybody get killed.
00:27:52.000That being said, okay that, I don't like that transition because it's not to say but, there is something to be said about the fact that this is a problem that as we know does not affect the rich.
00:28:38.000This is a Silicon Valley guy, some kind of rich, progressive, big tech entrepreneur living in San Francisco
00:28:47.000And these are the people that are promulgating the diversity, equity, and inclusion, the environmental social governance, the BLM, the defunding of the police, the climate, business, all these left-wing policies, and yet ultimately none of it really matters because with enough money you can insulate yourself from everything.
00:29:07.000You live a totally different life than normal people.
00:29:12.000Normal people have to go to public schools where they're subject to the demographic changes.
00:29:18.000Normal people in many cases have to ride on the public transportation where the crime problem is extremely acute.
00:29:26.000Normal people have to deal with the homelessness.
00:29:29.000They don't get to go and jump into a black car or in some cases even an Uber which is a luxury lately.
00:29:38.000And so there's something about seeing one of the people who is not just in favor of these policies, but in some sense responsible for them being influential, being a victim of their own views, being a victim of the society that they are complicit in, or helping to progress.
00:30:00.000Well, this is the society that you created.
00:30:03.000And that's really the problem, is that the people that are keeping all of these policies onto the country don't really have to suffer any of the real consequences.
00:30:20.000And I would say that that even goes into politics.
00:30:23.000When you look at Republican politicians, I look at a person like Marjorie Taylor Greene as a perfect example.
00:30:29.000She is at once the spokeswoman for the Republican constituency, which is the embattled, increasingly minority status, white people in America.
00:30:42.000Ostensibly the law-abiding people, the tax-paying people, the professionals, the literate people, something like that.
00:30:53.000And she goes out there and raises millions of dollars and she gets to function essentially as a celebrity riding around in DC in a black car and eating at fancy restaurants and going on TV and living the life and she gets to speak for people like you and me and particularly for the children, for the white people's children because it's the future that's up for grabs not so much the boomers and their social security.
00:31:18.000And she goes out there to speak for us when in reality she's a multi-millionaire who comes from money, who I guess her family has some construction company, she's loaded, and she goes out there every two years to say, I'm fighting for y'all and America, Americans need to make their voices heard and meanwhile not really doing a whole lot, really not doing anything.
00:31:44.000And when it comes to the ruling elite, and even when it comes to the opposition, whether they're totally in favor of the status quo or they're merely pretending to resist the status quo, neither of them are subject to the consequences of the status quo.
00:32:01.000And so they're perfectly content with perpetuating the status quo and perpetuating the system and perpetuating the machine that pays them and enables them.
00:32:13.000Meanwhile, it's everybody else that pays the cost.
00:32:16.000The problem, though, with this line of thinking, I think there's a limitation to it.
00:32:20.000It makes us feel good in a certain sense.
00:32:23.000Because you look at that and you say something like, hey, well, better him than Molly Tibbetts, or better him than Kate Steinle, or better him than some other victim of violent crime in America.
00:32:35.000Some other child, or student, or innocent person.
00:32:39.000That being said, a lot of times when these things happen, there's a chorus from the right where we say, maybe now things will change.
00:32:47.000Maybe now that the left got a taste of their own medicine, maybe now things will change.
00:32:51.000But there's a flaw in that line of thinking because has that ever produced, has something like this ever produced that effect?
00:33:01.000Because I've actually seen that it's the opposite.
00:33:04.000The rare occasion when one of the elites is a victim of the world that they created, is a victim of the violent crime or the so-called diversity.
00:33:14.000Whenever this happens, we don't hear any kind of introspection or regret, anything like that.
00:33:26.000And so watch, Elon Musk we know is more right-leaning and he's more sensible, and who knows what his deal is, how much of a legitimate actor he really is, but nominally we know that he's more of a right-leaning and so-called common-sense person.
00:33:46.000But I'll bet you, and I haven't seen a lot of the reaction, but the reaction from the big tech community will be that this is just another example for why we need more community policing, and more mental health, and more this, that, and the other.
00:34:01.000And so we're really in a situation where, and people don't like to hear this, there's almost nothing short of a catastrophe
00:34:12.000That is going to catalyze any kind of response.
00:34:15.000We talked about this a little bit last night about how there is a certain segment of the right wing that says that there is going to be a total collapse of the system.
00:34:26.000That it is only a matter of time and degree before things get so bad that the system will collapse, whatever that means,
00:34:35.000And then our goals will become more practical.
00:34:38.000Then our movement will become more viable.
00:34:41.000But you look at a situation like this where it's really bad over there.
00:34:47.0001 in 16 people are the victim of crimes.
00:34:50.000In the richest, wealthiest city in America, hottest real estate market in the country,
00:34:55.000Here you've got a major Silicon Valley CEO stabbed and even this will not only not catalyze however minimally a response in the right direction, it may even do the exact opposite.
00:35:09.000And so at a certain point you have to realize that events will not produce the change that we need.
00:35:16.000We cannot sit back and wait for history to produce the change that we need, like it will solve it on its own.
00:35:24.000Well, if we just sit back and wait for enough people to get murdered, or for enough crime to happen, or for the situation to become bad enough, everything will sort itself out.
00:35:35.000The system will buckle under its own weight, and history will provide an opportunity
00:35:44.000And I think that that is a totally bad mentality.
00:35:48.000It has got to be... timing is everything, don't get me wrong.
00:35:52.000But it's only through the political will of people that anything is going to change in a situation like this.
00:36:19.000That Hispanics or Asians or even white people in significant numbers in these places will turn the corner and vote right, vote Republican or vote for tough on crime or various conservative policies.
00:36:32.000But it never seems to come to fruition.
00:36:36.000So it's a pretty ugly spectacle that's going on in San Francisco, and it's a symbol of what's going on throughout the country.
00:36:45.000And I also wanted to say, because I touched on this a moment ago also, when you look at a city like San Francisco or Chicago or New York, I think the most devastating thing is that that is America.
00:36:59.000The American population, the majority, lives in the cities.
00:37:04.000And so there's another tendency that I see on the right where people like to say, well, that's not America.
00:37:13.000But the vast majority of people live in liberal cities.
00:37:18.000Even in the South or even in the interior of the country, the cities are liberal.
00:37:23.000If you look at the election results from 2020, it was even in red states like Georgia, or like Alabama, or like Nebraska, or like... I think there's only one state where the major city did not go for Democrats, and that was like Oklahoma.
00:37:45.000And maybe a couple of others, like the very sparsely populated states like the Dakotas or maybe Wyoming.
00:37:52.000But just about everywhere else, it's not just the major cities, it's not just the coastal cities, it is just about any large city in America, medium or large-sized city, no matter where you go, even college towns, are liberal cities.
00:38:09.000And the most populous ones, all of them, are exactly like this.
00:38:15.000Which is to say that the housing prices are crazy, the public transportation isn't safe, the city's dirty, plagued with homelessness, and crime.
00:38:23.000Those are the things that New York, DC, the capital, Chicago, LA, San Francisco, Portland, Atlanta, Miami, they all have this in common.
00:38:36.000Detroit, Milwaukee, you name it, they all have this in common.
00:38:41.000And if that's where the majority of the population lives, and that's where the economic activity happens, and that's where the billionaires live, and that's where the culture comes from, then that's America.
00:38:54.000And we've talked about this for a few weeks now on the show.
00:38:58.000America is not a great country anymore.
00:39:00.000I don't think there's any clearer symbol of that, or it's not even symbolic reality, that you could see other than going into these cities.
00:39:09.000And understand, it's not like this is just the way it has to be.
00:39:12.000I think a lot of people have this mentality.
00:39:15.000Where you remember back in 2016 or 17 Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, said that terrorism is just part and parcel of a major city.
00:39:26.000There's this attitude I think a lot of people have, subconsciously or consciously, that that's just how it is.
00:39:59.000If you look at cities like Dubai and other cities in Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, or elsewhere, Saudi Arabia, it's not like this over there.
00:40:10.000You look around the world and there are countries and cities in particular that have figured it out.
00:40:17.000They've made the public transportation safe.
00:40:27.000And the question is, at what point do we, and I've said this a lot on the show in recent years, make the decision that we want to join the ranks of futuristic developed cities?
00:40:38.000Because if we decided that we wanted these cities to be safe tomorrow, we could make it happen within a year.
00:40:46.000We could catch up to any one of these cities in a year if a decision was made that that is what we wanted for our country.
00:40:55.000But understand that what is holding us back from that is all of this progressive stuff.
00:41:03.000When people go out there and say, well, we're not racist, or we want diversity, or we want equality, or we want all of that,
00:41:13.000All of that comes at the cost of living in a great city.
00:41:18.000Why do you think San Francisco, Chicago, Detroit, LA, New York are like this?
00:41:24.000Take a look at who's committing the violent crime.
00:42:44.000That makes public transportation unlivable.
00:42:46.000And they do it in their neighborhoods.
00:42:49.000And when they do it in their neighborhoods, that makes the housing unaffordable.
00:42:53.000Because there's cheap, plentiful housing in most of these cities.
00:42:56.000The problem is, the cheap housing is where the violent black people are.
00:43:03.000To not live in a neighborhood full of black people that are committing crimes, you have to be in a certain tax bracket and a certain zip code that prices those people out of the neighborhood.
00:43:17.000So now you've also got a housing problem and an inequality problem.
00:43:21.000Do you see how all of this... Now I'm simplifying.
00:43:24.000This is a very reductive way to look at it, but
00:43:34.000Is that the main cause of the housing problems?
00:43:38.000In some cities I would argue it's a big factor.
00:43:41.000But do you see how just this one issue, and it's so transparent,
00:43:47.000We cannot arrest them because they're black.
00:43:50.000So then we're going to get a ton of violent crime, and the violent crime has very visible effects, which is people are getting killed all the time, and there are broken windows everywhere, but there is also an invisible effect of all of that, which is, like I said, the public transportation not an option, which makes it very hard for people.
00:44:13.000That means they got to move to the suburbs to commute with a car.
00:44:17.000Because you can't have a car in a lot of these cities.
00:44:20.000And the unseen effect is that it is going to drive away investment in the business district.
00:44:25.000And that is going to cause a huge deficit in tax revenue.
00:44:32.000Another unseen effect is that all the gang violence in these neighborhoods takes a significant amount of the housing effectively out of the market.
00:44:41.000Because you've got affordable housing in a lot of, maybe not in San Francisco, but in a lot of these cities.
00:45:16.000When there's violence, who wants to send their kids to school?
00:45:19.000So they go and leave and then there's a hundred kids in one school and the whole school is operating at a deficit.
00:45:25.000So do you see how there's this cascading effect?
00:45:28.000And it all comes from we cannot arrest them because they're black.
00:45:32.000So us not being racist has all of these consequences.
00:45:36.000If we decided tomorrow we will arrest as many criminals as possible and we don't care how many of them are black, we don't care how racist it looks, we want to fix it,
00:45:47.000Think about what a turnaround would be possible for the city.
00:46:38.000They were all out there at the liquor store and the phone store and they were out there burning down Kmart with the rest of them.
00:46:46.000Are we really gonna pretend that that isn't the case?
00:46:51.000They go out there and dutifully vote for a politician, typically black, but always have to be progressive, who is going to tell them that the real problem is root causes.
00:47:16.000But you always hear, and this is just a little aside, I always hear from the right wing, they always say, no, no, it's those leaders, it's those race hustling civil rights leaders, the real victims are in the community.
00:47:27.000I don't doubt that there are real victims out there that do not like the way that things are.
00:47:33.000But let us not pretend that this is not something that is going on.
00:47:39.000With the assent or the complicity of most black people in these cities.
00:47:45.000With the way they vote, with the way they act, with their attitudes.
00:47:49.000They're all progressive on this issue.
00:47:50.000They all are anti-police for the most part.
00:47:55.000And that's just one thing when you look at the crime.
00:47:57.000Then when you look at the homelessness.
00:48:00.000It's all these immigrants pouring into the cities.
00:48:05.000In a lot of cases, it's a migrant problem.
00:48:07.000It's not all the homeless people, but that is a lot of them.
00:48:11.000Once again, could we close the border and say, don't come here?
00:48:14.000That one's a little bit more complicated.
00:48:16.000It's not just about race, it's also about cheap labor.
00:48:19.000But that's another situation where it's totally in our control.
00:48:22.000The American government has the world's reserve currency.
00:48:27.000It brings in trillions of dollars of tax revenue every year.
00:48:31.000This is the most productive, richest country in the world, still, and if we wanted to secure the American border, we could do that.
00:48:40.000If we wanted to secure a few cities and prevent crime, we could do that.
00:48:47.000We did it in Afghanistan, we did it in Iraq.
00:48:50.000Don't get me wrong, it exploded once we left, but while we were there, it was relatively under control, and that was on the other side of the planet.
00:50:30.000Is any city, is the country going to be able to pull itself together over these racial divisions or over these competing ethnic interest-based politics to solve problems?
00:50:46.000In other words, in a lot of these cities you have a dynamic where it's just various ethnic enclaves fighting for money for their group, fighting for money for programs for their group or their neighborhood or their interest.
00:51:04.000And so when you've got this Star Wars galactic senate of alien people fighting each other for a share of the money, how are you going to unite the city behind any kind of agenda that's going to solve problems for everybody, which is lock up all the criminals?
00:51:23.000Well, the blacks aren't going to like that, and well, some other group's not going to... the teachers union's not going to like that, and this one's not going to like that.
00:51:56.000And the best you could do as a farmer is maybe one generation before your kids want to go out and go to a college town, and they want to go where the jobs are, and they want to go out into the city.
00:52:07.000This is the urgent, pressing reality of our time, and it's getting worse, and the political dynamic is only complicating it because of immigration.
00:52:18.000That's why I've always said that I am not a Democrat in the sense that I don't believe in democracy.
00:52:25.000At some point, you need a Napoleon, you need a Hitler, you need a Trump, you need a Caesar to take over and say, we're going to restore law and order, we're going to literally just make the trains safe and run on time, we're going to make the neighborhood safe, we're going to make it safe to invest, we're going to build things, like, you just need that.
00:52:51.000Because otherwise I don't see how any long-term, big-picture project is going to get done.
00:52:57.000That he's a little bit unpopular with black people, progressives, gay people, women.
00:53:38.000I want to get into the Chicago situation because this is very much the same story.
00:53:44.000And this gets into what I was talking about with these black people and what they vote for.
00:53:51.000Yesterday we had the runoff election for the mayor in Chicago.
00:53:55.000Lori Lightfoot was defeated in the first round.
00:53:58.000And the runoff was between this guy, Vallis, who's really technically the Republican candidate, and he was supported by the police, and he was supported by the billionaires, and by Citadel, and Ken Griffin, and Betsy DeVos, and a lot of Trump donors.
00:54:17.000And on the other side, you have Brandon Johnson, who is a black, former teacher, Chicago Teachers Union activist, and hardcore progressive, endorsed by Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren.
00:54:31.000Brandon Johnson won by 2%, 100,000 votes, somewhere in the ballpark there.
00:54:37.000They're not finished counting, I don't believe, but he's a projected winner.
00:54:42.000And so let me go over, this is a story from BBC talking about the race.
00:54:46.000It says, quote, Former union organizer Brandon Johnson has been elected as Chicago's next mayor in a victory widely seen as a boost for progressive Democrats.
00:54:56.000Johnson won the hotly contested race over former Chicago schools CEO Paul Vallis, a fellow Democrat.
00:55:03.000The election comes as Chicago, excuse me, struggles with crime, a central theme of both candidates' electoral campaigns.
00:55:11.000Mr. Johnson has vowed to invest more in mental health treatment rather than on additional police and jails.
00:55:18.000When he takes office next month, Mr. Johnson will succeed Lori Lightfoot, who is the first black woman and openly gay person to serve as Chicago's mayor.
00:55:27.000Mr. Johnson was backed during the nonpartisan election by Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders.
00:55:33.000Speaking to supporters on Tuesday night, Mr. Johnson vowed to usher in a new chapter in Chicago in which residents from all walks of life would be cared for by city officials.
00:55:44.000He said, today is the beginning of a Chicago that truly invests in all of its people.
00:55:50.000In his speech, Mr. Johnson said his campaign was influenced by Martin Luther King Jr.
00:55:55.000Today, the dream is alive, he said, so we celebrate the revival and the resurrection of the city of Chicago.
00:56:02.000The murder rate in Chicago has risen 20% since 2018, while car thefts have risen by 114% in the same period.
00:56:06.000Other forms of crime have risen over the same period also.
00:56:15.000Well, Mr. Val has promised to hire hundreds of additional officers to fight crime and was endorsed by the police union.
00:56:22.000Mr. Johnson vowed to invest city funds in intervention methods focused on de-escalating conflict as well as addressing root causes of crime such as schools, jobs, and mental health.
00:57:04.000And stories like this are not uncommon.
00:57:06.000It's almost now every other day, every week, there is a story about 5, 6, sometimes more than 10 crimes being committed in a half hour, hour time span in the morning.
00:57:17.000People are getting shot all over the city.
00:57:19.000There are riots all over the city on a regular basis.
00:57:23.000Where spontaneously black people just start jumping on cars, shut down traffic, they'll swarm downtown and Millennium Park.
00:57:32.000People get shot now on State Street, River North.
00:58:16.000And so if any time there was an election when there would be a reaction to the consequences of these progressive policies, it would be this election.
00:58:26.000You know, people are always talking about eventually things will just get so bad that the reaction will be voted in, or the reaction will take over.
00:58:37.000If ever there was a time in history, in a city, in America, it would be at this time, in this city, I should say in this century, it would be here.
00:58:48.000And not only does the right-wing guy not win,
00:58:52.000But a far-left, hardcore progressive wins, who's not only not the best candidate, but the worst candidate, who's going out there and saying, now people are getting executed.
00:59:03.000They're getting shot on their knees, execution style, in the middle of the city, the nice parts of the city.
00:59:10.000We elect a guy that is talking about, we're going to solve that with mental health and education and good jobs, okay?
00:59:36.000I saw there was a tweet from somebody analyzing the race, and they said, here's a map of all the victims of violent crime, and here's a map of how the vote went down yesterday.
00:59:48.000And predictably, all of the areas with the most violent crime voted for Brandon Johnson, the black public teachers union Democrat.
01:00:00.000And everybody in the replies was saying, well look, see, the victims of the violent crime have spoken, and they say the solution to the crime is community policing.
01:00:11.000They say the solution is investing in our children, investing in mental health.
01:00:16.000So if they say that, then certainly that must be the answer.
01:00:21.000Well, we also know there's another layer there.
01:00:24.000There's another map you could draw that you could layer on top of that which is, gee, that's where all the black people live.
01:00:31.000That is where the black people and the white gay people live.
01:00:37.000That is, it's Lakeview, it's all the faggots from Boys Town, it's all of the all the libtarded, gay, yuppie, white liberals and the blacks in the South and West Side
01:00:50.000The classic alliance, they teamed up to vote for a black progressive who doesn't understand anything about evil and law and order.
01:00:59.000They're going out there saying, well I think they know, look the victims, it's black people.
01:01:05.000And it's not just black people voting for a black mayor, although that's always a part of it.
01:01:10.000It's black people voting for a black mayor who said, it's not your fault.
01:01:16.000Because when a black public school teacher union guy goes out there and says, it's about mental health, it's about schools, you know what they're really saying?
01:01:27.000They're really saying it's not black people's fault, it's white people's fault.
01:01:40.000In other words, these adolescent black teenagers are not driving around executing people, shooting people, stealing catalytic converters, stealing cars because that's just, they were not raised right, they are bad people, they are evil.
01:01:58.000They're doing that because they're victims of a racist system.
01:02:02.000They're doing that because in some sense, somewhere along the way, they didn't get what they were entitled to from the white taxpayer and from the white system.
01:02:12.000They didn't get the mental health program.
01:02:30.000Because nobody wants to invest money in a war zone.
01:02:34.000Not a very good ROI putting down money in Humboldt Park when there's an hour-long crime spree and they don't even catch the perpetrators.
01:02:44.000So it's not just that the black constituency is voting for a black guy, although that is a huge part of it, it's also that they're voting for one of their own who is telling them it's not our fault, it's their fault.
01:02:59.000And so what's the Brandon Johnson program?
01:04:44.000I look back at the George Floyd riots when the cities were literally being burned to the ground and they were deploying public works trucks to block the entrances to the highway.
01:04:54.000Isn't that something like what a collapse looks like?
01:06:39.000The food, the nightlife, not even good anymore after COVID.
01:06:43.000And soon not even worth it with everything that's going on.
01:06:46.000Who wants to go out and then have to worry about getting executed and shot in the face and have your car stolen?
01:06:54.000I was at O'Hare recently and I got picked up by an Uber driver and he was telling me how he doesn't even do pickups or drop-offs in the city, just does the airport.
01:07:16.000Nothing is going to change unless there is a political will.
01:07:21.000And when I say political will, I mean a straight-up tyrant, a dictator, a fascist, a zealot, a hardcore person to get into power and use it.
01:07:34.000When I say political will, I don't mean elect another Marjorie Taylor Greene to give speeches and do photo ops and talk about Nelson Mandela.
01:07:43.000I mean, you need a straight-up dictator to go in there and raise up a coalition inside the government and then start breaking necks.
01:08:45.000Marjorie Greene was doing some interviews covered in Human Events and she said something like, I'm calling on all Americans to make their voices heard.
01:08:54.000And I thought about that and I said, what the F does that mean?
01:08:58.000I'm calling on all Americans to make their voices heard.
01:09:33.000Whether it's Daily Wire, or it's Infowars, frankly, or it's Marjorie, or it's Tucker, none of these people tell anybody to do anything!
01:09:45.000You have intelligent people in this country.
01:09:49.000The greatest, and this is something I learned from Ye that we've been thinking about a lot and writing a lot about, the greatest asset that we have is our people.
01:09:58.000We have brilliant people in this country.
01:10:00.000We have brilliant people that have put in the right position, could fix a lot of our problems.
01:10:09.000You have brilliant people, and types like Marjorie or Tucker or Alex or whatever, they've got an audience with these intelligent people.
01:10:20.000But instead of telling them, go out, become powerful, make money, get involved, do something, they're being told nothing.
01:10:28.000They're being told either some garbage like, hey, go out and make your voice heard, vote, make sure you vote on Tuesday, make sure you chip in 10 bucks, make sure, whatever.
01:10:38.000They're either being told something like that, or it's something like, you know, and subscribe, subscribe for more content, follow us on Rumble, do this and that.
01:11:21.000All this money, all this messaging, this big political machine that everybody thinks exists is doing nothing other than perpetuating itself.
01:11:32.000Perpetuating its subscriber base, its attendance at its conferences, its viewership on TV, its votes, its majorities, its this.
01:11:44.000What we have been doing at America First is finding the intelligent people and building a nationwide network.
01:11:53.000And I don't talk about this a lot on the show because we're doing it discreetly.
01:11:59.000But the project that is underway now is that we are trying to find the most intelligent people that watch this show or believe these things and getting them involved in politics, starting them on the path to a career in politics in the last 40 years.
01:12:15.000And if we could get 5,000, 10,000 people that start now, or over the course of time, and they matriculate and they work their way up the system over the course of a generation,
01:13:38.000For the longest time I've been on social media, I've been in this right-wing scene and I've always encouraged people to get involved and I've done my share of organizing and
01:14:07.000What kind of quality of life can you expect, honestly, in this century?
01:14:13.000You know, politics isn't real life until something really horrific happens to you.
01:14:19.000Things are not going that well, actually.
01:14:21.000If you're rich, like a lot of these Jews are, and you can afford to live in the right zip codes, yeah, you're fine.
01:14:28.000But if you're just some white sucker with no legacy connections at a major university, if you're just some white sucker that doesn't have a ton of wealth,
01:14:37.000It's just a matter of time before you get caught up.
01:14:40.000You're on the wrong end of another vaccine mandate, or a George Floyd riot, or some other such thing.
01:14:47.000On the wrong end of a gun in the middle of the night.
01:14:51.000What kind of quality of life can you expect for you, your children, in a bankrupt country that's being totally invaded, that's completely corrupt, and dirty, and backwards, and degenerate?
01:15:06.000Coming soon, if it's not here already.
01:15:08.000And it's going to be the life of your children.
01:15:11.000Unless people get off the couch and get involved and take the first step and do something.
01:15:17.000And by the way, that doesn't mean, and honest to God, that does not mean going out and getting a weapon and doing something like that.
01:15:23.000In fact, that's the opposite of productive.
01:15:26.000I mean going about it and doing the real soldier's work
01:15:30.000Of getting up and getting involved and working day in day out doing the tedium, doing the work of an intelligent professional revolutionary for 40 years.
01:15:43.000Any idiot can go and do a death by cop and give their life for their own narcissism or their own emotional response.
01:15:52.000Giving your life means going out there and living a life that may be unfulfilled, giving your full entire life to a professional revolutionary cause.
01:16:02.000That's what the intelligent, patriotic, pious people need to be doing, as opposed to every other activity which people can come up with.
01:19:01.000Cowards, and do we want to live under the sovereignty of narcissistic blacks, and Jews, and women, and liberals, and gay people, and every other group, and watch everything get destroyed?
01:19:14.000I decided I wasn't going to do that, and people have called me crazy, and they've called me a terrible person, and my name's been dragged through the mud, and I've gone through an ordeal, but when I die, I can say I didn't go along with it.
01:20:12.000Go and get insurance and marry some woman who probably divorced you in 10 years and get a bunch of friends that wouldn't like you if they knew your real views and wait to get old and die in a country that's unrecognizable.
01:20:26.000Welcome to your real life, said the Jews.
01:20:29.000Welcome to your real life, said Costan Alamariu and his Likud spy friends.
01:22:36.000I did a show about that which was going on, I think, two or three weeks ago.
01:22:43.000And whenever you look at these countries where there is a foreign-backed coup, it is always through the student groups, it's through women's groups, and it's through minority, religious and ethnic minority groups.
01:22:56.000Those are always, that's always the entry point for foreign subversion.
01:23:30.000Every year it's the white guys that get taken to the cleaners at the polls by these susceptible women, feminist types, young people, easily influenceable young people, and religious and ethnic minorities.
01:27:46.000You don't take you and your phone with you.
01:27:50.000And the idea of ignorance, like not knowing things, being able to get lost, being able to be a stranger somewhere, being able to be in a... really being in the city.
01:28:01.000Right now we're kind of in this global village and where we are is somewhat arbitrary.
01:28:18.000I was around for, you know, probably 10 or 15 years before social media and the smartphone really became prolific.
01:28:30.000I remember very, very early, I remember when the cell phone was just like a, it was just like a very simple phone, before even the flip phone.
01:28:40.000I remember going to the waiting room at the doctor and just being bored.
01:29:16.000So I remember a little bit of the pre because it really was a second singularity It was like the Internet which was email home computer and then the next wave was Social media and smartphone which are go hand in hand, which is about 2012 2015 When all that really took off
01:29:41.000You'd have to go and hear about news and gossip in like a magazine or like the TV.
01:31:08.000It's so funny, because people are always asking me, like,
01:31:27.000Questions and they just don't understand that when you talk to him, it's just it's all about the business man He's all about the business All he thinks about is Every project he's working on music architecture design politics You name it.
01:31:46.000He's the wheels are always turning So I've been in constant contact with them for how many months now?
01:32:02.000And we've been together for a long time.
01:32:05.000Like, even when we were on the private jet, we'd be on the private jet for six, seven hours, and be sitting there talking, playing Mancala for hours!
01:32:56.000Or a puzzle, you know, like an intelligent person will look at an issue and kind of try different solutions and try different things and and use conditional statements to try and try to suss out the truth and the true nature of things.
01:33:14.000And I think Ye is very much like that.
01:33:17.000He's very much a thinker, and I'm often blown away by some of the things that he just has tremendous insight into.
01:33:23.000Like, he really just grasps politics, even though he's not really a political guy, as you know.
01:33:31.000He's not... That's not where he... That's not his domain.
01:33:35.000He comes from the music world and the art world and the fashion world.
01:35:49.000But it goes deep into... because Spengler was a towering intellectual.
01:35:57.000What he was trying to do with Decline of the West was to create a new discipline, a new study of civilizations.
01:36:07.000Separate from the study of history, separate from the study of anthropology or political science, he wanted to create a new discipline which is the study of civilizations.
01:36:19.000And so to understand that, he had to understand everything within the civilization.
01:36:28.000So, he writes about what he called the Faustian civilization, the Magian civilization, the Apollonian civilization, Apollonian being the ancient Greek Romans, Magian being the, I believe, the Byzantine religious civilization, Levantine, and then the Faustian being from, I think, the Middle Ages on in Europe.
01:36:58.000Which is the civilization of of Europe striving and embodied by Mozart by the infinitesimal principle and calculus by Rembrandt and Anyway, so he writes about he writes in great detail about art and math and architecture Gothic architecture in particular flying buttresses and some of the features of cathedrals and about calculus
01:37:28.000And so you have to understand calculus.
01:38:54.000I just left the studio, did 24 songs, I've been on my shit, I've been off the grid, I can't disappear, I gotta watch my kid, I gotta watch my shit, I gotta watch my sis, everything getting bigger.
01:39:20.000You know, I've heard about that stuff for a long time, and as far as I know, I don't know that there's anything new, I don't know that there's anything out there that's... Like, are there any accusers?
01:39:34.000As far as I know, there's some screenshots, and there have been screenshots floating around for years.
01:39:43.000But the claim is not, he flirted with somebody, because he's very open that he was bisexual at one point,
01:39:51.000As far as I know that's no longer the case or at least not acting on it But then there's this claim that he's an abuser and all this stuff and you know what I've heard for years From his adversaries who already don't like him.
01:40:05.000Well, it's just around the corner just around the corner There's gonna be a report just around the corner.
01:40:10.000I say well, can you show me the evidence now?
01:40:12.000They say no, I'm like, okay so the day that anything
01:40:19.000The day the charges are filed, the day that anything conclusive comes out of there, then I will have something to say about it.
01:40:29.000But until that point, you got some screenshots, some flirting that's going on.
01:40:36.000Now, it's not like, you know, I don't find that savory at all, but what people are making it out to be is a little ridiculous.
01:40:50.000When Jesse Lee Peterson was being accused by Church Militant, I was being told by the same people, you gotta throw... For months!
01:40:59.000This hit piece on Jesse Lee Peterson came out, I want to say in June of last year.
01:41:05.000And I was told in like February or March, I was told Jesse Lee Peterson's a gay pedophile and you better just disavow him before this thing drops because it's going to be ugly and everyone's going to blame you.
01:41:16.000And I said, well, can I see the evidence?
01:43:28.000There was some tip on Crazy Days and Nights that said, Rumor is, somebody's asking for a quarter of a million dollars for the Nick Fuentes sex tape, which I know doesn't exist because I've never had sex.
01:43:47.000and you know and every other accusation and whatever so that's and I'm sympathetic to it for that reason and also because um you know I you know how I am I'm a loyal person I don't throw people under the bus for no reason everybody's trying to get me to throw my friends under the bus all the time and um you know whether it's Beardson or Baked Alaska or Ethan Ralph or Loomer or Steve or
01:44:55.000And for people to go around and make these accusations without proof, and honestly, knowingly lying is disgusting.
01:45:07.000And I know because someone shared it with me, I saw at least one.
01:45:11.000Somebody sent that to me the other day.
01:45:14.000They said, oh, here's somebody accusing Ali with the photograph, and it's a guy who I know is 27.
01:45:23.000So not only do you accuse, say, well, the evidence is just forthcoming, always forthcoming, always forthcoming, it's never... the accusation comes without the evidence always.
01:45:32.000And then when something is provided, it's like, oh, well, here's an abject lie.
01:49:15.000Thanks for everything you've done and everything you've sacrificed.
01:49:18.000Just wondering how the email ideas thing is going.
01:49:21.000I sent one the other day regarding the basics of diet, and I've got a lot more in the same field and also informing to share you.
01:49:28.000Yeah, I'll be reaching out to some people this week.
01:49:31.000I'm not going to reach out to everybody because not everybody had good... Some people were emailing me just like, I'm asking for expertise.
01:49:38.000I'm looking for experts, technical experts, people with experience, people with education.
01:49:43.000I'm not looking for people somebody was like oh we should ban soybeans and polyunsaturated fat whatever that is polyunsaturated fats and uh what would poof us whatever that's I don't even know what it stands for and we should um so we should ban those things and we should have everyone eat raw meat that's like okay so I don't
01:50:04.000Yeah, I've heard of raw egg nationalist.
01:50:08.000I'm looking for looking for people like that are expert I think I was pretty clear when I said looking for not that there's anything wrong with that But I'm looking for technical expertise not people that are just like hey, so, uh, I think that we should have like a based policy of like So I'll be some people be hearing back from me this week, okay, I
01:51:17.000Now, some people want a country so that they can create like a biblical monarchy and have a messiah and bring about the end of the world and rebuild the third temple.
01:51:28.000Some people want a country because they said that that's the solution to all the pogroms and genocide and expulsions and things like that.
01:52:37.000The use of video games, I would start to put limits on smartphone use for children, in education, those sorts of things.
01:52:49.000Because for me it's not so much the effect of technology on the society, it's the effect of technology on human development that is concerning to me.
01:53:00.000Although there are effects with society also, but I think that in a lot of cases you have to a lot of times You have to wait and see like you can't you can't really know about unintended consequences until they happen But then the government needs to be able to respond and act accordingly.
01:53:16.000That's all So and we should probably I mean to be competitive we have to in some sense.
01:53:22.000It needs to be free the development of technology needs to be free
01:53:26.000But the government should also have the authority to react.
01:55:28.000But two, you can't go out and LARP as some tough guy if you get piss thrown on your face and you're gonna say, hey man, sorry, I'm minding my own business.
02:01:28.000I see it as sort of like, I've said this before, but we, she bumps into me, and I'm like, hey, watch where you're going, will ya?
02:01:36.000Hey, you know, and I'm sort of like a Han Solo, I'm sort of like a loner, rough-around-the-edges guy, and she's kind of like, hey, watch where you're going, oh my god, you know, and at first it's very negative, but we like keep bumping into each other, in some way we're forced to be together,
02:04:52.000Anthropomorphize version of fate and so the Adjustment Bureau these guys in suits and fedoras they go in and make adjustments to make sure everything and anyway Matt Damon and this girl keep bumping into each other but they're not supposed to be together it's not part of their plan and so the Adjustment Bureau comes out and says listen Matt Damon if you keep trying to hook up with this girl we're gonna kill you
02:05:31.000So I've always sort of seen it as unfolding in that, not like the, not like the corny sci-fi aspect of it, but the, this like, whoops, oh, we're on the same bus, whoops, oh.
02:08:53.000Thank you Okay, I love when people look the emails closed right now.

02:09:14.000Genko Capital says, just noticed how these conservative guys say they want feminine women and then get off to girls doing the most masculine shit, shooting guns, drinking beer.
