00:02:04.000So that was yesterday, Governor Greg Abbott announced they're banning all the vax mandates, which.
00:02:10.000At the minimum, it's refreshing compared to what they're doing in literally every other state, which is either nothing or they're doing their own vax mandates.
00:02:20.000We'll also be talking tonight about a new regulation which Joe Biden is trying to pass, which would allow the IRS to see your checking account balance and decide based on the money going into and out of your checking account in a given year whether or not you're paying enough taxes.
00:02:39.000And based on that, they will audit you.
00:02:48.000And we talked a little bit about, I think, a similar story last week.
00:02:52.000I forget the details, but we had a surveillance story last week.
00:02:58.000It was about the keyword search warrants.
00:03:01.000And I told you last week, and we've been talking about it all year.
00:03:05.000It's like this is just the world that we live in mass surveillance by Washington, D.C., mass surveillance by the state.
00:03:12.000It's unavoidable, you can't get away from it.
00:03:15.000And even to the extent that you might mitigate your exposure to surveillance, there's really nothing you can do short of like leaving America and living in a country and in a place in a country where you're just simply outside the grasp of the US federal government, which is not really an easy thing to do.
00:03:37.000So, tonight, our story is about this new regulation.
00:03:40.000Like I said, they're trying to, this is what they say, they say that they're trying to squeeze every last dollar and cent.
00:03:48.000Output transcript Out of the taxpayer in order to fund all this new spending, these massive budgets and the massive infrastructure bill and the massive COVID stimulus bill and the massive huge, huge spending from the Biden administration in just the first year.
00:04:06.000And so they say that in order to fund all these new programs and fund everything, they are cracking down on tax fraud or tax avoidance by going into people's checking accounts.
00:04:19.000They can see, for example, if you have a savings account, they could see the interest that accrues in a bank account now.
00:04:27.000But what they're going to change is they're now going to allow the IRS to see the balance of your checking account and the transactions.
00:04:35.000And it was funny, they did a hearing about this today with Janet Yellen, who is now the Secretary of the Treasury.
00:04:44.000And they asked Janet Yellen about the specifics of the measure because it's one of the provisions of this.
00:04:50.000Is that they're able to look into anybody's checking account so long as the checking account has $600 in it.
00:04:59.000If a checking account has $600 in it, they can monitor the transactions and the balance, which is strange because they say that they're changing this, you know, they're implementing this rule so that they could crack down on tax cheats, but they say they're going after billionaires.
00:05:17.000They say this is designed to get more money from the ultra wealthy, the very wealthy.
00:05:24.000Strictly billionaires, or maybe some millionaires, that's why they made this rule so they can monitor the account balances and the checking accounts of the super rich so they can take more of their money.
00:05:37.000But that doesn't really square with the provision, that doesn't really square with the actual details of the rule because if they were going after billionaires, why would the threshold be $600?
00:05:49.000What billionaire has a checking account with $600?
00:05:53.000And if you were trying to squeeze more money out of a billionaire to the tune of Billions in tax revenue.
00:06:01.000They say hundreds of billions in tax revenue is what this will produce for the state.
00:06:06.000Where are they finding billions of dollars in the checking accounts of billionaires or millionaires where there's only $600?
00:08:02.000Next week, we'll probably be onboarding a few more streamers, and I'll announce those either at the end of the week this week or at the beginning of the week next week.
00:08:12.000But we plan on bringing aboard a few more people next week and probably a few more people after that.
00:08:19.000And we will keep adding people until we finish the site.
00:08:23.000And then once the site is finished, then we're going to bring on whoever is left.
00:08:28.000But anyway, so if you missed the show yesterday or last week, that's just a little timeline of how this will develop.
00:08:36.000But our first step today was launching it so that everybody could see doing a soft launch and testing it out for multiple streams going and the live chat for the different channels and seeing what the load would look like having viewers on the platform.
00:08:52.000But of course, still very early on, we're going to be adding a lot to it.
00:09:08.000We had a little bit of difficulty getting it off the ground.
00:09:10.000We had some hosting issues, but resolved that in about 15, 20 minutes.
00:09:15.000And since then, it's worked perfectly.
00:09:17.000So Vince did his first stream on the platform earlier tonight.
00:09:21.000I'm obviously now doing my show, and then Jaden will be later, and that'll be our First day on the platform.
00:09:27.000So, we've got an email account set up, and I'll be asking for your feedback later this week.
00:09:33.000I want to get kind of a feel for what people think about it, what people like, what they don't like, what's good, what we could do better.
00:09:42.000But this will be, and I talked a little bit about it yesterday, you know, and not to get sappy or anything, because I did just talk about it yesterday, but this should be the first major step towards building a permanent home for this whole scene, you know, for.
00:10:01.000Excuse me, America First is a show, and for everybody in the America First universe, and even people that are just tangential or adjacent to the America First universe.
00:10:13.000And there's nothing else like this on the internet.
00:10:15.000There's, you know, for, and it's kind of amazing because it's a pretty big issue, you know, which is to say that we're at a point now, and it never used to be like this.
00:10:28.000Even this year, even at the beginning of this year, It's never been like this before.
00:10:45.000You know, you obviously can't stream on YouTube or Twitch, the terms of service there are out of control.
00:10:52.000And you can't even stream on the smaller alternative platforms like DLive, Trovo, or others.
00:10:58.000And the alternatives to those that exist, they either have their own restrictive terms of service that just haven't been ramped up yet.
00:11:06.000I'm thinking of Rumble as one example.
00:11:09.000Or there are severe limitations technologically about what they're able to do, like Odyssey.
00:11:16.000And I don't even have anything against Odyssey, by the way, but they just have some technical challenges.
00:11:21.000So, the point is, there's really no way to overstate what a big achievement this is.
00:11:28.000This is the only thing that exists on the internet, it's the only site on the internet where a large live streamer can live stream without being censored.
00:11:41.000This is the only site on the entire internet.
00:11:43.000And, you know, I was saying, with all the money that's out there, all the streamers that are out there, as big as the internet is, as big as the world is, it's pretty incredible.
00:11:52.000This is the only place where you can say that.
00:11:56.000This is the only website where you can truly say censorship proof, independent, and it works.
00:12:06.000I took it on a couple of years ago with our developer team, with our people behind the scenes in America First.
00:12:13.000It's been a long journey to get here, and we still have a long way to go, I think, but.
00:12:19.000I think today was a massive day, a huge proof of concept.
00:12:23.000And, you know, a big congratulations to everybody that was involved in the making of this behind the scenes because there's nothing else like this on the internet.
00:12:31.000There's stuff that's behind a paywall.
00:12:33.000I mean, there's a lot of stuff out there that's similar, but there's nothing else out there that's doing what we're doing.
00:12:48.000It's going to be interesting to see where this goes.
00:12:51.000I think that really the sky's the limit with a premise like this because as time goes on, there's only going to be more and more people that are going to be censored and banned from the major platforms.
00:13:00.000We're really getting in at the ground floor of, I think, the future of the internet, you know, or at least the future off of the major platforms on the internet.
00:13:09.000So, anyway, so welcome to cozy.tv slash Nick.
00:13:14.000Like I said, I'm not sure exactly when this will happen, but at some point we will converge the two sites.
00:13:21.000And AmericaFirst.live will redirect to CozyTV, to the new platform, to my channel there.
00:13:28.000But for now, we just put something temporary.
00:13:31.000We've got both going at the same time.
00:16:49.000So, not like Halloween weekend, but the weekend after that, we'll be in New York and we'll be there probably for about a full week.
00:16:57.000And we'll be doing rallies, we'll be doing flash mobs, we'll be doing more confrontational stuff, we'll be going into stores and not wearing masks.
00:17:06.000We'll be going in and with a megaphone and protesting the VACs, we'll be showing up to businesses, we'll be doing the rallies, maybe one at the state capitol, maybe one in New York City.
00:17:16.000We've got We're still doing the planning right now, actually, because it's coming up very quickly.
00:17:22.000But I'll probably make a more official announcement about that at the end of this month.
00:17:26.000I'm telling you that, though, so you could get your t shirt.
00:17:29.000And if you're in New York, so you could start thinking about it.
00:17:32.000But we got some big anti vax stuff coming up as well.
00:17:35.000And remember to follow me on Gab and Telegram for all the updates about that, because I am going to be keeping everybody up to speed on my whereabouts, where you can participate.
00:21:15.000And it's happened on three occasions that they've disclosed that they do this, that they have this jurisdiction, they have the power to do this, and they're using it.
00:21:33.000But basically, what it is is the Department of Justice can get a search warrant from a judge and go to a search engine like Google or Bing or whatever, and they could ask the search engine to produce.
00:21:47.000Every single individual user who searched a given keyword.
00:21:54.000So they could go to Google and say, hey, give me the machine, give me the identity of every single person that Googled Ashley Babbitt.
00:22:03.000So if you Googled Ashley Babbitt, you know, you went on your computer at night and you went to Google and you searched like Nick Fuentes, AF Live.
00:22:11.000The DOJ could go to Google and say, give me everybody that searched AF Live.
00:22:17.000And so would everybody else's that searched that.
00:22:20.000They could go to a judge and get a warrant that is that broad, that global, that universal.
00:22:26.000And as far as we know, we've only seen evidence that they do this in three cases, which leads us to believe that they're probably doing it a lot more.
00:22:35.000They've accidentally revealed it in the one disclosure.
00:22:57.000And it's like every week it's a story like that.
00:22:59.000At the beginning of the year, we covered a story about how the Department of Homeland Security was going to private companies to circumvent the law, and they were contracting with private tech companies to place what amount to rats or confidential informants in private telegram chats, Facebook messenger groups, to spy on people that.
00:23:23.000The Department of Homeland Security suspects are engaged in violent activity or something like that.
00:23:29.000Normally, the American law is supposed to protect people's privacy and protect them from entrapment, which is what that amounts to on that level.
00:23:40.000And the DHS came up with a new rule for themselves, and they said, well, we could go to a private company and have them hire the informants, and that way it's not illegal.
00:23:49.000And it's something like this every day.
00:23:51.000And it all comes from the federal bureaucracy, specifically under the executive branch of government.
00:24:02.000And we'll read a report here from the New York Times, but the gist of it is this.
00:24:07.000The IRS says that there's a lot of tax fraud going on, a lot of tax avoidance.
00:24:13.000They say that in order to raise more tax revenue, and this is supposed to make the tax system more fair, which I don't know how it does that exactly.
00:24:23.000But they say in order to raise revenue and in order to make the tax system more fair, they've now created a new rule.
00:24:31.000Where the IRS gets to spy on what amounts to basically everyone's checking account in America.
00:24:38.000See the transactions, the inflows, the outflows, and the balance.
00:24:42.000And using that information, the IRS can then determine who's not paying enough on their taxes.
00:24:48.000They say they're doing that to go after billionaires and millionaires who aren't paying their fair share.
00:24:54.000They're not paying what they're supposed to.
00:24:56.000Yet, in spite of that, the threshold for them to be able to spy on a checking account.
00:25:02.000Is that the checking account has to have a balance of $600 or more?
00:25:07.000So, every checking account in America with a balance greater than $600, the IRS can now go in there without initiating an audit, without a warrant, without informing you.
00:25:21.000They just get that information from the bank.
00:25:23.000They could see what goes in, what goes out, and they could see the balance.
00:25:27.000And then they can audit you based on what they find after comparing that to your tax returns.
00:25:37.000So, this is the story from the New York Times.
00:25:39.000It says, When the Biden administration looked for ways to pay for the president's expansive social policy bill, it proposed raising revenue by cracking down on $7 trillion in unpaid taxes, mostly from wealthy Americans and businesses.
00:25:55.000To help find these funds, the administration wants banks to give the IRS new details on their customers and provide data for accounts with total annual deposits or withdrawals worth more than $600.
00:26:08.000That has sparked an uproar among banks and Republican lawmakers who say giving the IRS such power would be an enormous breach of privacy and government overreach.
00:26:18.000Banks and their trade groups are running advertising and letter writing campaigns to raise awareness about the proposal.
00:26:25.000As a result, banks from Denver to Philadelphia say they are being deluged with calls, emails, and in person complaints from savers and small business owners that are worried about the proposal.
00:26:38.000JPMorgan Chase and Company has issued talking points to bank tellers.
00:26:43.000On what to tell angry customers who call or come into a branch to complain.
00:26:47.000Jill Castilla, the chief executive of the one branch Citizens Bank of Edmond outside Oklahoma City, said We have heard a lot from our customers about their concerns about their privacy.
00:26:59.000I've gotten calls, emails, and many customers have even come in.
00:27:04.000Banks already submit tax forms to the IRS about the interest that customer accounts accrue, but the new proposal would require they share information about account balances.
00:27:14.000So that the IRS can see if there are large discrepancies between the income people and businesses report and what they have in the bank.
00:27:22.000The IRS could audit or investigate the gaps to see if those taxpayers are evading their obligations.
00:27:28.000The Biden administration says that the U.S. needs more information from taxpayers to crack down on those who don't pay what they owe.
00:27:36.000The measure, which would affect more than 100 million households and millions of businesses, is estimated to capture $460 billion in additional revenue over a decade, primarily from the wealthiest Americans.
00:27:51.000Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said at a hearing last month that it's a very serious proposal.
00:27:57.000We have a $7 trillion estimated tax gap.
00:28:01.000That we have a great deal of tax avoidance by individuals and businesses, typically very high net worth, high income individuals and businesses that have opaque sources of income that are not paying the taxes that are due.
00:28:15.000Treasury officials say the effort is not about tracking individual transactions and is not aimed at lower or middle income households.
00:28:23.000The $600 threshold was chosen to weed out accounts that are generally dormant or get little use, such as children's accounts.
00:28:31.000While still giving the government the broadest possible visibility, administration officials say that audit rates for taxpayers who earn less than $400,000 per year will not go up, which is very believable.
00:28:47.000And, you know, when it comes to things like this, you just have to look at what the effect of it will be.
00:28:54.000It's always amazing to me how gullible people are.
00:28:56.000You see a law like this or a rule change like this.
00:29:01.000What this effectively does is it gives the IRS complete jurisdiction to spy on everybody's finances.
00:29:11.000I mean, let's not pretend it's anything other than that.
00:29:15.000It's a checking account with more than $600 in deposits or withdrawals or a balance of $600.
00:29:23.000Who in America is making an income and in the course of a year is not depositing or withdrawing $600?
00:29:32.000Even if you're on welfare, even if you're on unemployment, even if you don't have a job and even have no income, maybe you get $600 for your birthday and Christmas and Easter combined.
00:29:43.000That's like everybody with a bank account in America, you could say, generally speaking, would have $600 in net transactions, right?
00:31:48.000They will say and do anything to get the rule change passed.
00:31:52.000It's the same thing with the vaccine mandate when they say, we're not going to do a federal vaccine mandate.
00:31:59.000Yeah, and what they say in that instance, or in any other instance, at a press conference or at a hearing or on television, that in a dollar will buy you a cup of coffee.
00:32:14.000What matters is what the people working in the bureaucracy are doing, how they're enforcing and interpreting the rules, and then how the judges interpret that and uphold precedent and things like that.
00:32:28.000And what I see over the course of a given year is that the government basically now has the ability to rape, kill, destroy, annihilate anybody that they want.
00:32:41.000It never used to be like this formally, it used to be like this effectively, meaning that it probably was illegal.
00:32:50.000And in spite of the fact that it was going on, they weren't open about it, they weren't upfront about it, it wasn't publicized when it was, they covered it up.
00:33:03.000If you go back basically since the creation of the FBI and even before that, the U.S. government has had the ability to, in older days, tap your phones and look at paper records and things like that.
00:33:16.000The government's always been spying on people.
00:33:18.000The government has always had the ability to spy on any individual that they wanted.
00:33:23.000But like I said, that was just one of their capabilities.
00:33:27.000It wasn't necessarily a formal operating procedure.
00:33:30.000And it definitely wasn't legal and it definitely wasn't something that people were aware of.
00:33:35.000But we're moving away from that now where they have absolute and total surveillance power.
00:35:22.000Who's working at the Department of Homeland Security?
00:35:24.000That combined in the stories I covered earlier can now issue a keyword search warrant for all my search queries, issue, or I guess the IRS can just look into my checking account, transactions, and whatever.
00:35:37.000And the DOJ, or what was it, the DHS can now hire somebody to be a confidential informant in my Twitter group chat.
00:35:45.000Who's working in these agencies that can now do all of that to me without me being charged with the crime or being alerted to this?
00:35:52.000Me being still, if you could believe it, an American citizen with civil liberties and constitutional rights, who's working at these organizations?
00:36:02.000Globalists, liberals, in many cases, Jews, people that went to Yale, people that went to Harvard, progressives, gay people, lesbians, people that hate me.
00:37:17.000Those are the people that live, eat, sleep, and work in D.C. and go to work every day in one of these federal departments or agencies.
00:37:25.000Those are the people that have just given themselves the power to search every keyword, given themselves the power to spy in your group chat.
00:37:32.000Given themselves the power now to look at your transaction history and your account balance on all of your savings and checking accounts that you have at the bank.
00:38:27.000And all it takes is to destroy the benefit of the doubt of the system.
00:38:32.000You know, Janet Yellen is in a hearing.
00:38:35.000She was the former Federal Reserve Chair.
00:38:38.000Now she's the Treasury Secretary, and she's trying to persuade and convince a skeptical congressman.
00:38:46.000She's trying to persuade the general public that when she's giving herself the authority to look at your bank balance, that she's only doing that to target billionaires who are cheating their taxes.
00:38:59.000Well, that's kind of a tough sell, actually.
00:39:02.000It's kind of a tough sell when the entire federal government and everyone that works in it is openly engaged in a conspiracy against the American people.
00:39:11.000And demonstrably is lying to them, trying to hurt them, and doesn't have their best interests in mind.
00:39:17.000But they're trying to convince you well, we're giving ourselves all this power so that we can stop domestic violent extremism, go after tax cheats, find murderers.
00:39:31.000This was from the private sector, from Apple, I think it was last month.
00:39:36.000Last month, Apple said that they were going to use artificial intelligence.
00:39:41.000To scan everything that is in your cloud.
00:39:46.000So, all your documents, photos, videos, emails, texts, all the data that you upload to the cloud when you back up your iPhone or when you use extra storage on your iPhone, Apple is going to use an AI algorithm to scan all of it, go in there and look at all of it in order to find child porn.
00:41:00.000And it's like with anything else private sector, public sector, it really doesn't matter.
00:41:05.000It's about people that hate you in Silicon Valley, in New York City, in DC expanding their power to look at every single thing you're doing.
00:41:17.000What that means is not necessarily that people are going to be put in chains and made to work in fields and they're going to get whipped for not listening to what they're supposed to do.
00:41:30.000What it means is that dissent will not be possible because, you know, insofar as you're going to work and you're watching TV and you're like doing what you're supposed to do, you're not becoming a social pariah with the wrong political or social views, you'll be fine.
00:41:51.000You have nothing to fear if the IRS is looking at your bank accounts, as long as you pay your taxes and all that.
00:41:58.000What happens is that stepping outside of compliance with the system now becomes impossible.
00:42:05.000Because you step outside, you put a target on your back, and overnight you become an enemy, quite literally, of the entire state apparatus.
00:42:14.000What happens now if you're somebody that is a target of the government?
00:42:18.000Well, in the old days, I mean, they would maybe just kill you, but in the old days, From a legal point of view, you still had rights and you could still protect yourself and you could still defend yourself in court and they'd have to charge you and they'd have to go through this big arduous process.
00:42:34.000And because you're a citizen and you've got rights and you've got civil liberties.
00:42:40.000Now step outside the line, you're at the Stop the Steal protest, you're an anti vaxxer, you're a prominent QAnon truther, whatever.
00:42:48.000Now they can audit you at the IRS after looking at all your finances.
00:42:52.000Now they could turn on your camera and phone or microphone.
00:42:56.000On your mobile phone and spy on everything you say, everything that goes on around you, look at you, look at your surroundings.
00:43:04.000They could geolocate you everywhere you go.
00:43:07.000They could monitor what the temperature is in your room based on your smart device AC, monitor how many times you're opening your fridge.
00:43:14.000They could monitor using your iPass where you drive on the tollway.
00:43:19.000Using geolocation, they could tap into other surveillance cameras of other people's phones and see who you were in contact with and where you were.
00:43:51.000And you're seeing it gradually being implemented against somebody like me and against other people you know Alex Jones, Donald Trump, others.
00:44:00.000Now you see that the federal government can just simply destroy its political adversaries, not like the enemies of the Democratic Party.
00:44:08.000But no, the political adversaries of the regime.
00:44:12.000The regime now has the ability to destroy and punish anybody that opposes it.
00:44:17.000And when I say the regime, I don't mean the president, I don't mean the Republican Party or the Democratic Party, I mean the regime, the people that run the country, the people that the real power, the real throne, the real seat of American power, private sector, public sector, it doesn't matter.
00:44:34.000Anybody that opposes the regime, the real rulers, those people, It's not enough now that they're ostracized or you're canceled, politically incorrect.
00:44:44.000They can straight up come for you and destroy your life.
00:44:47.000They could see everything you do, spy on you, you have no rights, and they could wipe you off the map.
00:48:47.000Like I said, people that pretend like, well, we're going to elect a Republican or we will download Brave Browser, which I have, but still, it's not a permanent solution.
00:50:10.000And so the news from Texas is that yesterday the governor of Texas, Greg Abbott, by executive order, banned all vaccine mandates by any entity in the state of Texas, which presumably means the federal government too.
00:50:27.000And I don't know exactly how that's going to play out, but it's a positive step.
00:50:47.000I'll read you the article about this and we'll discuss.
00:50:50.000It says, quote, Texas Governor Greg Abbott on Monday issued another executive order cracking down on COVID vaccine mandates, this time banning any entity in Texas, including private businesses, from requiring vaccinations for employees or customers.
00:51:07.000Abbott also called on the legislature to pass a law with the same effect, promising to rescind the executive order once that happened.
00:51:14.000The legislature is in this year's third special legislative session, which ends on October 19th.
00:51:21.000He said, The COVID vaccine is safe, effective, and our best defense against the virus, but should always remain voluntary and never forced.
00:51:31.000Which is wrong, completely wrong, but whatever.
00:51:37.000The order marks a significant reversal after Abbott previously gave private businesses the choice to mandate vaccines for workers.
00:51:44.000An Abbott spokesperson said in late August that private businesses don't need government running their business, because that's the issue at stake here, right?
00:51:53.000For weeks, Abbott has been under pressure from some on his right to go further in prohibiting vaccine requirements, and one of his primary challengers, Don Huffines, celebrated the latest order.
00:52:05.000COVID vaccine requirements by government agencies, cities, counties, and school districts in Texas were already banned by a previous executive order.
00:52:15.000The legislature also already passed into law a ban on so called vaccine passports, which would allow businesses to require proof of vaccination from customers.
00:52:25.000The latest move appears to be at least partly motivated by President Joe Biden's actions in September that require all employers with more than 100 workers to mandate vaccines for workers or test weekly for the virus.
00:52:38.000So, you know, I don't really know how this is going to play out because I don't believe it's a tricky thing because, on the one hand, the federal government definitely does not have the power to mandate that everyone get vaccines.
00:53:12.000I don't think a state has the jurisdiction to overrule a federal government ruling, which is an executive order from OSHA, which I don't believe has even been filed yet.
00:53:21.000But if it does, theoretically, when it does, I don't know if a Texas executive order can supersede federal government.
00:54:22.000Greg Abbott has been a very subpar governor who I think now feels threatened, like I think anybody does, in an election year, and is now doing these things, rushing to the right, doing things to pander to the base.
00:54:36.000But I don't know that his heart is in a battle.
00:54:39.000Against COVID vaccines because he believes in the vaccine.
00:54:44.000And this is something that up until a month ago, he deliberately said, said explicitly in a positive sense businesses can mandate the vaccine.
00:55:26.000If the state of Florida and the state of Texas are against it, and there's people all across the country, you know, protests and workers going on strike or quitting their jobs or getting fired from their jobs, if unions are against it, businesses are protesting, we really just need all hands on deck refusing the vaccine and saying no.
00:55:45.000Because I talked about this the other day, it's a game of chicken.
00:55:49.000And what their side is doing is trying to make it so uncomfortable for people that they would just rather get the vaccine than not.
00:55:58.000If they don't have a strong conviction to be unvaccinated, you know, for people that maybe aren't even taking a stand or anything, but they just don't want it, they just sort of have a preference not to get it, or maybe they just haven't gotten it yet.
00:56:15.000And they said this was in the Project Veritas leak from, I think it was Pfizer.
00:56:21.000They got some of their people on the record, and it's not like this is a groundbreaking insight, but they said, Yeah, we are trying to make it inconvenient.
00:56:28.000We're trying to make it uncomfortable and difficult for people to live their lives without getting it so that they'll just say, Ah, you know what, I'll get it.
00:56:36.000And so, conversely, we're really doing something similar.
00:56:39.000If we force a confrontation with the federal government in court between the states, if we shut down the economy, if we have big strikes, and if we have some degree of protests and rallies and the workforce leaving, Maybe the Biden administration similarly will say, ah, you know what, forget it.
00:56:58.000The difficulty, though, is that the federal government has unlimited resources.
00:57:03.000The state of Texas is dependent on the federal government.
00:57:09.000And the federal government has more resources than the state of Texas and the state of Florida, and the federal government can last way longer than any individual worker or a union or whatever, which is why there needs to be an overwhelmingly massive response.
00:57:24.000Has to be overwhelming because the federal government, the problem is they could go on forever.
00:57:29.000They've got the money, they've got the time, they're the house.
00:57:33.000So that's what makes it particularly difficult.
00:57:36.000And we'll see to what extent the Texas government is able to offer up any kind of meaningful resistance to vaccine mandates.
00:57:43.000In Florida, it looks like they're succeeding.
00:57:46.000They forced the cruise line industry to back down, but DeSantis is much stronger than Abbott.
00:57:56.000This is going to be fumbled and botched by politicians.
00:58:00.000I have this sneaking suspicion because it seems to always happen.
00:58:04.000It's almost worse that someone like Greg Abbott, if this doesn't get enforced, it's almost worse that Greg Abbott would go and ban this if he's not serious then about enforcing it.
00:58:15.000Because what does that say about our side?
00:58:17.000If the state of Texas says, no, we will not have vaccine mandates, and then they cave like a month later, what does that say about?
00:58:27.000The willingness of anybody in the anti vax cause to resist for a long time.
00:58:35.000I don't know that that would be a positive development.
00:58:38.000So I'm a little bit weary when I see this stuff.
00:58:40.000It's even like Ron DeSantis when he passed that anti tech censorship bill.
00:59:01.000I'm going to send the Texas National Guard.
00:59:03.000And then the next day, he said, oh, yeah, never mind.
00:59:06.000And Ron DeSantis said outside of, I think it was CPAC or Mar-a-Lago at the beginning of the year, He said, We are going to pass a bill and we're going to ban text censorship because we have a First Amendment.
00:59:19.000And then the bill comes out in May and it literally doesn't do anything.
00:59:49.000And it's been that way the whole year.
00:59:51.000And that hasn't stopped the FBI, and that hasn't stopped the DOJ, and it hasn't stopped the vax mandates and the COVID lockdowns, and it hasn't done anything, right?
01:00:02.000I mean, does it feel like half of the country is ruled by Republicans?
01:00:31.000But I have the sneaking suspicion that this is going to be a total failure.
01:00:36.000They're not banning vax mandates, the vax mandates will go on anyway, and this was just a big stunt to win re election, and we probably would have been better off without it.
01:00:45.000And I wish they'd stop sticking their neck out to do these political stunts at our expense.
01:00:49.000I think that's the direction it's going in.
01:01:14.000We've got an email on our VaxWatch telegram.
01:01:17.000We just opened it up, I think, yesterday.
01:01:19.000If you go to t.me/vax, Watch, VAX watch.
01:01:24.000We've got an email server that you can email us and tell us about if you have a business that's enforcing a vax mandate that you're a customer of or you work for.
01:01:35.000And we're going to try and collect that information and have people show up and do flash mobs and things like that outside of unfriendly businesses.
01:01:42.000But let us know your experience in Texas if that's going on.
01:01:46.000Because if it is, then at least maybe there's a legal recourse with the executive order.
01:01:51.000But I don't feel very confident in that.
01:01:55.000People keep saying the state government, state government.
01:01:58.000I've said that, and I think we need a big change in leadership in the state governments before that even becomes tenable because what we have right now just isn't cutting it.
01:02:10.000It's kind of exciting, but it's not that exciting.
01:02:13.000We're going to take a wait and see approach.
01:02:16.000And if in a week, you know, at the end of the legislative session, if they pass a law that says this in the Texas legislature, that'll be very good.
01:02:24.000If in a week there's a lot of enforcement, I'll say that's good.
01:02:27.000People should move to Texas and Florida.
01:02:30.000I don't know that that's going to happen, though.
01:02:31.000But it does provide a little bit of hope because it shows that some of this resistance is making a difference.
01:02:37.000I don't like, though, that he said that the vaccine is safe and effective because, I mean, we are against the mandate more than anything, but we are also against the vaccine.
01:02:46.000And I don't like when they do these half measures and they say, well, you know, we're against the mandate, but the VAX is great.
01:02:54.000The mandate, if the VAX were great, then the mandate might not even be that big of a problem.
01:03:00.000It would be a problem because it's bigger than the vaccine, and we've talked about that, but the problem here is that this is completely experimental and we don't know what's in it, and it's already having very Frequent adverse side effects for people that have gotten it.
01:03:14.000So, no, I think it's actually very much a part of being against the mandate is that the vaccine itself, we have really no evidence that this is going to be safe for human beings in the long run.

01:13:12.000George Groypington says, Today is the feast day of Blessed Carlo Acutus, who will soon become the first millennial saint.
01:13:18.000A reminder that even in this wicked era, we are still called to and able to lead lives of holiness and love that are pleasing to our Lord and Savior.
01:13:28.000George Groypington says, If you guys haven't heard already, read up on the life of Blessed Carlo Acutus, the teenage saint who died of leukemia, age 15, in 2006.
01:13:38.000Spent his life documenting Eucharistic miracles.
01:13:41.000Online and faced his death with courage and piety as a man of God.
01:15:20.000A lot of people opposing the vaccine, but who's going out there leading the charge, doing rallies, spending their own money, traveling to do this?
01:16:33.000Some of the stuff he tweets, granted, is a little sussy.
01:16:37.000In all fairness, I don't know that I would tweet everything that he tweets, but he is one of the few consistently funny, consistently keynote posters.
01:17:16.000The people that are the most well adjusted.
01:17:18.000The people that are most well adjusted, normy, and I know that because, you know, it's like everybody that I knew in college or high school or whatever.
01:18:33.000Second grade, I had a zombie costume, but my mom said it was too gory to bring to school, so I. Wore Darth Vader for school, but I think I was the zombie at home.
01:18:45.000I think third grade I was Anakin, fourth grade I was Boba Fett, fifth grade I think I was a hot dog or something like that.
01:18:56.000I'm trying to, it honestly gets less clear the further I go.
01:22:18.000Curtis says Hey, Nick, I sent you an email the other day and super chat about potentially onboarding me to your platform, but still no word back.
01:22:27.000Yeah, because I don't know who you are, man.
01:22:47.000We're going to bring on everybody that we know first, like everyone we know.
01:22:52.000And then we may bring on people, but I'm not really fixing to pay for bandwidth for zero viewer streamers to go and stream whatever, you know?
01:25:46.000Minaj showed us that objective truth can come even from fools.
01:25:51.000While countless bishops try to convince us into the vats, perhaps you should give the libertarian girl a chance in debate and reach her fans.
01:25:59.000Every single time we get a based woman, you know, based woman on my super chats.
01:26:06.000And then I'd say, hey, listen, listen, sweetheart, here's the deal.
01:27:41.000But until that point, I remain steadfast.
01:27:46.000Isn't that how it goes, though, right?
01:27:49.000The day that a woman is willing to just accept me for who I am and accept me for what I am and what I say, and this is the way things are, you know, then maybe I'll say, you know what?
01:32:09.000I need to start carrying a gun, not to protect myself, but in the event that any man ever for the rest of my life, Ever tells me she's not like the other girl so that I could kill them on the spot.
01:32:22.000And I, you know, not going to talk about firearms on this show because I'm under investigation by the FBI, but I'm saying this is a funny joke.
01:32:31.000I need to start carrying a gun so the next time a nigga tells me she's not like the others, they can be shot on the spot dead right there where they lie, where they stand.
01:33:58.000If you're fat, then you should be put on some kind of government program where you are not allowed to eat.
01:34:05.000You should be able to, you should have to scan a QR code in order to eat, and you can only get so many calories per day because it's just, it's not right.
01:34:13.000It's not right that like 30% of the country is obese.
01:34:19.000So, this is one of those instances when the government should and can intervene.
01:34:24.000But if you're not fat, I don't, If you're not fat, it shows clearly you can manage yourself and then you should have freedom.
01:34:30.000If you're fat, then you should be put in jail or the equivalent.
01:34:35.000Derpal says it's been less than 24 hours and Facebook already has flagged cozy.tv as abuse and won't allow the link to be sent in Messenger or posted on the timeline.
01:34:47.000Not surprisingly, they flagged it, but that was pretty quick.
01:34:49.000I had to spell the dot to get around it.
01:37:14.000So get everybody back on the same site.
01:37:18.000Pavel says, What would you say to liberals who say it's okay for Biden to be Catholic and pro abortion because he understands the difference between separation of church and state?
01:38:58.000I mean, now it gets a problem for me because the government took a lot of my cash, but, and that sucks because if I ever get it back, they're giving it back and it's going to be worth half of what it was.
01:39:09.000But cash is rapidly becoming worthless.
01:44:23.000Wives, be subject to your husbands as to the Lord, for the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ is the head of the church, his body, and as himself, its Savior.
01:44:30.000Yeah, but if you watched the show yesterday, we didn't even need to get all the way to Ephesians.
01:44:54.000Whenever you get horny and whenever you feel like you love women and you want to be nice to them and you think you like them, but really you just want to have sex with them, remember they are the reason that we die.
01:45:46.000You know, sometimes I open up a book and I read the first chapter and then I put it down and I don't open it up for a long time.
01:45:53.000So, it's like you don't even really have to commit to the Bible.
01:45:57.000You don't have to read the whole thing.
01:45:59.000You should, but I'm just saying, even if you're lazy, you don't really need to get even that far into the Bible before you're really unlocking a fundamental truth about the dynamic between men and women.
01:46:24.000The next time that you're gawking and you're getting all, you know, you're getting caught up in your feelings and all of that, just remember, just remember, remember, it's her fault.
01:51:00.000Optics Respector says, can't wait for the IRS to put a hold on my accounts because of my political activity and then charge taxes on the money I can't touch.
01:51:24.000I wouldn't want to piss off optics or spectra.
01:51:26.000Come barreling towards you like a cannonball, like a bat out of hell, like a bullet train, freight train, like that train in Unstoppable, the Denzel Washington movie.
01:51:39.000Rocking Chair says America First is unflappable, it's unglompable.
