00:00:25.000I guess it's a good thing, actually, because it's been a very eventful two, two and a half months since the start of this year for this movement, the show, the country.
00:00:35.000And now everything is just grinding to a screeching halt, yet again, just like before the election and towards the middle of Stop the Steal.
00:00:46.000It's another lull, another lull in our lives.
00:00:49.000Not much going on, but we do have a fun, exciting, good show.
00:00:55.000Our featured story tonight is about Frederico Klein, who you might have heard about before.
00:01:02.000He is a White House affiliate, I believe he was in the Trump administration.
00:01:08.000In a mid level position, and you may or may not have heard about him before, but he was recently arrested in connection with the Capitol riot on January 6th.
00:01:19.000And he is one of many people who were present at the Capitol that day who is being held in federal prison without the possibility of being released while he is awaiting his trial.
00:01:35.000And this is a particularly sick thing that's going on, a sick injustice.
00:01:41.000That's happening because he, like many other people who were present at the so called Capitol riot, did not commit a heinous crime.
00:01:53.000They're not violent people, but yet some of them are being held for days, weeks, and even months without the possibility of being released before they're even sentenced or convicted for their alleged crimes.
00:02:19.00047 employees are being laid off at Huffington Post today because, I don't know, I guess BuzzFeed is not able to pay their salaries anymore.
00:02:30.000That kind of fake news media, it doesn't make the same money that it used to.
00:02:34.000So they had to let a lot of people go, including Luke O'Brien, who is a bitch, a total bitch, and who we hate on the show.
00:02:52.000And this guy's like, you know, as far as journalism goes, he has got quite the heritage.
00:03:00.000I said, Luke, I could start you at $500 a month as an America First intern, and I could potentially promote you to clean my toilet if you do a good job.
00:03:13.000So the offer stands for Luke O'Brien, other journalists.
00:03:23.000Toilet cleaner, dog walker, lots of different things, lots of different opportunities, exciting opportunities for journalists to cash in.
00:03:31.000We can't pay you much, but I think something is better than nothing, which is what they have now because they have all been laid off and now have no job and are not making any money.
00:04:55.000Joe Biden is clearly mentally unfit to be the president of the United States.
00:05:00.000We knew that since about last year, you know?
00:05:03.000We've known that for probably over a year.
00:05:05.000That this guy does not have the faculties really to have any job, much less the biggest job in the world.
00:05:14.000But to see it play out like that, and it gets no play, it gets no coverage, nobody talks about it, and this is really how the entire administration is being treated, not just the president, but the whole administration.
00:05:26.000The things like a dumpster fire, the DOD and the NADSEC community are emboldened, they are more aggressive than ever.
00:05:38.000Of course, you've got this immigration situation, a crisis at the border with illegals pouring across.
00:05:44.000They say that there could be more illegal crossings since the beginning of Joe Biden's term than the past three years under Trump combined.
00:07:41.000That is going to survive that is this email list.
00:07:44.000The email list is like the black box of America first.
00:07:47.000If the whole thing goes down, we're banned from Twitter and Telegram, something happens there and something happens to the show, and there's no other way for me to contact you, the email list will survive.
00:08:00.000We're carving it on stones practically so that we could still reach everybody and contact all the faithful followers of America First in the event of total deplatforming.
00:08:16.000But one more thing before we get into the news I have a big announcement, a couple of big announcements on the show tonight.
00:08:24.000We are officially launching the website of the America First Foundation.
00:08:30.000So, in case you don't know, the AFPAC conference was put on by my foundation, the America First Foundation, which is a 501c4 nonprofit organization.
00:08:45.000And the nonprofit allows us to raise money for projects.
00:08:48.000Unlike a 501c3, the contributions are not tax deductible, although, as a nonprofit, it is a tax exempt organization.
00:09:02.000Their privacy and their anonymity is protected from the public, unlike with other structures.
00:09:08.000So we have our foundation, and I believe that was announced in a somewhat official capacity with AFPAC 2, which took place a couple of weeks ago.
00:09:19.000But now we have an official website and a destination for the foundation.
00:09:27.000And you could donate on the website to the foundation if you decide to donate.
00:09:31.000I want to remind you that that goes into the foundation for.
00:09:35.000America First related projects and other kinds of political activities.
00:09:40.000So, I don't want you to think that it's just, you know, some people have made it out that this is the case, that it's just some kind of slush fund.
00:09:48.000You know, I'm taking this and I'm going to like McDonald's or something.
00:09:52.000It's specifically for America First movement activities.
00:09:56.000You know, we've already got a few projects lined up and it goes towards things like AFPAC, which you saw a couple of weeks ago.
00:10:03.000What a big hit and a big success that was.
00:10:07.000It's America First Foundation.org, and we have got, I believe, e check processing there.
00:10:13.000If you want to make a small contribution, we would appreciate it so we could keep doing awesome things.
00:10:18.000Although we're in a pretty good position, I should say, after AFPAC 2.
00:10:22.000Also, another announcement we have a new upload of the AFPAC 2 conference on the AFPAC website.
00:10:32.000So, separately, on a different website, AFPAC.Events, if you go to that website, you can watch the full replay of the AFPAC 2 conference.
00:10:42.000And this is the highest quality upload to date.
00:10:45.000I know there are a few versions of it on YouTube and a few other video platforms, but this was a recording of the conference that we made independently of the stream.
00:10:58.000So during the conference, we were streaming it, and simultaneously, we had other cameras recording it in high definition.
00:11:05.000And so this version is color corrected, and it is the highest quality version that exists so far.
00:11:11.000So if you're looking for a replay of the conference, it's at aftpack.events.
00:11:16.000The full thing in HD, color corrected, best version, and it's also on our YouTube channel as well.
00:11:45.000You know, the institutionalization of America First is well underway.
00:11:49.000And just a quick aside about that, I should add before we move on.
00:11:55.000I said this throughout the Groyper War, and I'm sure people believed me, but at the time I didn't have anything to show for it.
00:12:02.000I told everybody a year ago, after the Groyper War was over, after AFPAC won, I said we were going to take the gains and the inroads and the connections and all the attention that we got from Groyper War.
00:12:15.000And I said that I and the team behind America First were taking all of those things, all the gains that we made, and we were consolidating them and reinvesting them into the movement, reinvesting them into infrastructure.
00:12:29.000And the foundation is just a part of that.
00:12:31.000It's a big part of that, but it's only a part of that.
00:12:34.000And I just want to say that explicitly because I know I had said that for a long time, about a year ago.
00:12:40.000I don't think I've said that in a while because you see it.
00:12:43.000But I just want to remind you in case you forgot, I did say last year, I told everybody because some people said last spring and summer, they said, where did Nick Fletcher go after the Groyper War?
00:12:56.000Man, he really fell off after the Groyper War.
00:13:11.000And we took all the excitement, and like I said, the networking and the resources and the attention, everything that we got from that, and we took it and we reinvested it into the movement.
00:13:21.000And we're now creating a real infrastructure.
00:13:24.000We are seeking to create a political infrastructure that can carry on the America First movement throughout.
00:13:33.000We don't want to be another flash in the pan.
00:13:35.000We don't want to be a flavor of the month media sensation.
00:13:39.000Of course, when you have a lot of media attention every now and again for various reasons, that's a good thing, but we want to have that staying power.
00:13:48.000And the only way that you could do that is by institutionalizing the movement.
00:13:53.000This is something that people failed to do after the Trump election and really for the four years in the first Trump term.
00:14:01.000But now we're doing that and we're on top of it.
00:15:52.000This is from the Huffington Post website about their layoffs.
00:15:56.000It says, BuzzFeed announced layoffs for the HuffPost newsroom on Tuesday, three weeks after acquiring HuffPost from Verizon Media in February.
00:16:06.000Hillary Fry, the site's executive editor, and Louise Rouge, the executive editor for International, will be departing in a restructuring effort aimed at stemming financial losses.
00:16:18.000HuffPost Canada will also shutter operations later this month.
00:16:22.000A deal between BuzzFeed, HuffPost, and Verizon Media was first made public in November.
00:16:28.000Verizon Media stated at the time that BuzzFeed and Huffington Post would operate as separate, distinct news organizations with their own websites and editorial staff, while BuzzFeed CEO Jonah Peretti led the combined company.
00:16:42.000It has been a particularly grim year for the media industry.
00:16:47.000The coronavirus pandemic undermined a business model already on shaky ground due to a massive shift in digital advertising spend towards tech giants Google and Facebook.
00:16:57.000Layoffs across the industry were on track to break records late last year, according to Variety.
00:17:03.000Peretti told staffers that the decision, which will affect 47 U.S. employees, including eight in management, was made in order to, quote, fast track the path to profitability for Huffington Post, enabling the company to break even this year and eventually turn a profit.
00:17:19.000HuffPost's losses totaled around $20 million in 2020, he said.
00:17:25.000He said, quote, though BuzzFeed is a profitable company, Company, we don't have the resources to support another two years of losses.
00:17:32.000We want to ensure the homepage remains a top destination on the internet.
00:17:36.000We also want to maintain high traffic, preserve your most powerful journalism, lean more deeply into politics and breaking news, and build a stronger business for affiliate revenue and shopping content.
00:17:49.000Although the site has struggled financially for several years, some HuffPost staffers criticized the lack of resources expended to promote the site and its content under Verizon.
00:17:59.000The HuffPost Union. Slammed the restructuring effort in a statement saying, Today we learned that 33 of our colleagues, nearly 30% of our unit, will be laid off.
00:18:10.000We are devastated and infuriated, particularly after an exhausting year of covering a pandemic and working from home.
00:18:47.000These layoffs reiterate the importance of forming a union and advocating for our colleagues.
00:18:53.000Well, not really, because they have a union, and how did that work out?
00:18:58.000We are glad that we are protected by a collective bargaining agreement and that our colleagues will receive severance.
00:19:04.000Our union will continue fighting to make Huffington Post a more just and equitable workplace, including pushing for clear and accountable commitments to hiring and promoting more people of color and for transparency around pay equity.
00:19:27.000Very frustrating and infuriating that you've lost your job.
00:19:31.000Even better than that statement is a quote from Laura Bassett.
00:19:35.000Who is a P-brain female retard woman reporter who wrote this on Twitter?
00:19:41.000She said, HuffPost employees, after a year of working through a pandemic that isn't over, were invited to a meeting today with the password Spring is Here, where they were told 47 of them would be laid off.
00:19:55.000They would only know if they still had a job if they didn't receive an email by one.
00:20:02.000It's not even like they just got a pink slip or like they got an email or something like that.
00:20:07.000The way that they got fired at Huffington Post by BuzzFeed, because Huffington Post, I guess, is now under BuzzFeed, is all these employees were asked to log into a Zoom call.
00:20:20.000They had to type in spring is here as the password to log into the Zoom call.
00:20:26.000And once they get in the Zoom call, they're told 47 of you are being fired, and you'll know if you still have a job if you don't get an email by one o'clock.
00:21:01.000And then, and then, oh, it gets better.
00:21:05.000Oh, it just keeps getting better and better.
00:21:09.000And then they're all posting on Twitter today that they're looking for jobs.
00:21:16.000Rebecca Klein, Rebecca Klein, Rebecca Klein writes, Hi all, just found out I was laid off with so many of my incredible colleagues who I care about so much.
00:21:28.000This industry is tough, but I hope to continue my reporting elsewhere.
00:21:31.000If you know of any opportunities, email me at rebecca.klein.journalist at gmail.com.
00:22:21.000And Emily Peck writes My last day at Huffington Post will be March 15th, the Ides of March, alongside some wonderful colleagues and friends.
00:23:00.000Maybe they could clean my desk off, you know, clean around here a little bit, maybe dust my computer off, shine my shoes, for example, before AFPAC.
00:23:12.000I mean, there's really lots of opportunities here at America First that we could bring people into.
00:23:18.000I think that in honor of these fallen comrades at Huffington Post, I'm going to go out and I'm going to have a delicious steak dinner that is very expensive and just really enjoy it for their sake because I know they'd want me to.
00:23:34.000I know that they're not very fortunate right now, and I know that they would want me to enjoy my fortune on my proprietary streaming platform that I own and that can't be taken away from me.
00:23:48.000So, You know, unlike your job, this platform cannot be removed by BuzzFeed.
00:23:54.000So I know that they would want me to really relish the fact that America First is hanging on and people like Luke O'Brien and Rebecca Klein are not.
00:24:04.000They would want us to enjoy for ourselves.
00:24:06.000So I want everybody to treat themselves this week.
00:24:35.000I always say that it's always a good thing if a white person gets fired or is removed from society if a person of color can take their place.
00:25:13.000I hope that there is something fulfilling about the fact knowing that maybe now that he's gone at Huffington Post, a young woman of color can take his place.
00:25:24.000And I hope that that's true of all these journalists that got laid off.
00:25:28.000And when they're hungry and thirsty and poor and they can't afford rent and they have to move in with roommates or something, I hope that they could just know that black people are taking the wages that they otherwise might have had and their jobs too.
00:25:53.000Out with the old white, problematic class of whiteslash Jewish journalists and in with.
00:26:00.000Fresh, young, diverse, exotic blacks, Hispanics, and Asians, homosexuals, trannies, freaks, cross dressers, midgets, you know, people that have sex with animals and people that are in polyamorous relationships.
00:26:14.000There's always, you know, there's always a nice new thing going on.
00:26:22.000But it's, no, it's actually a great day because it's good to see when journalists are suffering.
00:26:27.000And, you know, like with Destiny, we talked about him the other day who got, like, disavowed by a candidate that he backed.
00:26:34.000Seeing journalists getting fired by a major media conglomerate, what's delicious about this is because, of course, it's a taste of their own medicine.
00:26:45.000You know, everything that we've been talking about for years, which is like job insecurity and the economy's not working and giant faceless corporations are prioritizing profits over people, all this kind of stuff, we've been talking about this for years on the show.
00:27:00.000Now, we're not talking about it in the context of journalists who are evil and ruining the country.
00:27:07.000As it pertains to the economy at large.
00:27:10.000And for the past four years that I've been doing this show, and for longer than that, journalists have been saying that if you get laid off from your job, well, you know, you just need to learn to code.
00:27:20.000If you get laid off from your job building pipelines or working in fracking, well, you should go work on solar panels.
00:27:26.000And these are people who have been responsible for getting people fired from their jobs because they hold the wrong political views.
00:27:33.000And I said all along, these people are slaves of the system.
00:27:40.000Slaves, in the purest sense of the word, of the system.
00:27:44.000Disposable, expendable, used and abused just like slaves by the very multinational corporations that they purport to be against.
00:27:56.000How many of these HuffPo journalists are hardcore democratic socialists, hardcore progressive and leftists, anti capitalists, and they're clocking in going to work every day at a Company owned by Verizon, owned by a giant media conglomerate.
00:28:16.000They act like they're writing for, I don't even know, like some kind of like an indie thing.
00:28:22.000They act like they're working at a hipster coffee store that runs on donations.
00:29:23.000And they smugly write for these publications targeting people like me and America Firsters and other right wingers, spreading their poison, spreading their toxicity, doing the bidding of woke capital, doing the bidding of the power.
00:29:39.000And all along, we've told them what they're doing.
00:29:50.000And now it's times like these when these people begin to realize that it was not them that were using the power, it was the power that was using them.
00:30:00.000And that's a very poignant part of this, which is to say that a lot of these left wing actors get involved in legacy media, they get involved in something like the Huffington Post, Washington Post, New York Times, whatever.
00:30:14.000They get involved in MSNBC, Democratic Party.
00:30:17.000And even though in their head they're leftists, even though in their head these are.
00:30:24.000Ideologically pure people with integrity with these left wing principles, they think that by getting involved in these power structures, that they are using the power structure, even though they may not like it, even though it's a compromise in their principles, they think that they're using that to target their enemies.
00:30:44.000You know, so Luke O'Brien, you know, well, he's kind of an exception because he's like a spook.
00:30:49.000His parents and his grandparents are spooks, but you know, one of these like Jewish journalists, like Rebecca Klein or like whatever.
00:30:56.000They might join up with Huffington Post thinking, I'm going to work for this giant, you know, subsidiary of a giant media conglomerate, but I'm going to use my post there.
00:31:07.000I'm going to use my position here, and I'm going to use the machinery of the power structure to go after right wing people.
00:31:14.000And even though I'm not in love with Verizon, I'm not in love with the power structure as it is, I'm going to embed myself in it.
00:31:20.000I'm going to utilize it towards a politically expedient end, which is the deplatforming of my political opponents, right wing people.
00:31:31.000And they think that they're in control.
00:31:33.000They think that, for example, by voting in Joe Biden and displacing Trump, they think that by working at the Atlantic Council, working at Huffington Post, working in New York Times, they think that this is helping them.
00:31:44.000They think that all of these different things, they're utilizing them for maybe a short term game while those power structures aren't exactly in line with their principles.
00:32:45.000The power structure is more powerful than anybody that's on its payroll, anybody that's working for it, anybody that's a slave to it and dependent on it.
00:33:00.000Joe Biden is a puppet, and he works for the donors and the special interests that funded his campaign from Wall Street, foreign governments, big banks.
00:33:09.000The people that fill up his cabinet, which are all former board members of interests.
00:33:15.000And the same goes for the mainstream media the New York Times, Washington Post, Huffington Post.
00:33:20.000Why do you think these organizations stick around when they post losses year after year after year?
00:33:28.000It's because the value that accrues to their owners does not come from their monetary value or their income, it comes from their ability to shape society.
00:33:41.000Huffington Post lost $20 million last year.
00:34:05.000Huffington Post, New York Times, Twitter, YouTube, they have a value outside of their monetary income.
00:34:12.000They're owned by billionaires, they're owned by conglomerates.
00:34:15.000That are trillion dollar organizations.
00:34:17.000Alphabet is a nearly a trillion dollar organization, and so is Amazon.
00:34:21.000The value is in their ability to shape the society, which these journalists, streamers, left wing activists are all willing participants in.
00:34:32.000Willing participants in the machinery serving the agenda of the billionaire class.
00:35:00.000And all these principles promoted by Huffington Post, which are liberal and inclusive and pro worker and all that, well, 47 of them just got canceled after they had to type in springtime is here on a Zoom call.
00:35:14.000So there goes your safe and inclusive workspace dedicated to promoting the principles of BLM and trans and whatever.
00:35:25.000And every journalist should know that.
00:35:28.000Every journalist, every left wing activist, every streamer, every content creator on YouTube, for the most part, all these people need to know you work for them and you are a bitch.
00:36:30.000Toiling and slaving away, writing your little listicles for Huffington Post.
00:36:36.000And then they're going to have you, the ultimate humiliation, get on a call and type, Springtime is here to get laid off after the pandemic, after they're acquired by Verizon, after they're acquired by the powers that be.
00:36:50.000And that's the thing about America first.
00:36:59.000I mean, they get a job and then they get a paycheck.
00:37:02.000And they clock in and they've got colleagues and everything's great and they're verified on Twitter and it's like the easiest thing in the world being a journalist.
00:37:19.000You know, being targeted by the FBI and being attacked by the media and having a dossier written about me in the ADL, SPLC, and everything else.
00:37:30.000Constantly being deplatformed by social media platforms, financial services, other tech services.
00:37:37.000Being doxxed by left wing activists, being doxxed by people that are crazy on our side, and relentlessly attacked and scrutinized and everything.
00:37:49.000It's actually difficult doing what I do.
00:37:52.000And I said this on the Clubhouse tape on Saturday, the Clubhouse call.
00:37:57.000I prefer this every time because the difference between me and all these journalists that report about me is I'm a free man.
00:38:10.000I can say what I want, and whether I make lots of money, which I do, or I didn't make that much money, if I was wildly successful, which I am, or not so successful, it doesn't matter.
00:38:24.000Because that freedom, that sovereignty over my spirit and my will is priceless to me.
00:38:53.000Like I said, they are, in the truest sense of the word, slaves, livestock.
00:38:57.000They're like farm animals, like a horse or a pig or a dog working on the plantation owned by the billionaire class.
00:39:06.000And as hard as it may be to be a dissident, and it is tough, it's not for everybody, I would take that any day of the week, having the sovereignty and freedom over will and spirit that these people don't have.
00:39:44.000They were wrung dry of all their garbage content, you know, writing their little articles for nine years, eight years, whatever it was, since the start of Huffington.
00:39:54.000Post and through the pandemic and through social distancing and remote working and all that, and they got kicked to the curb like dogs, thrown out to the street by Verizon.
00:40:31.000Antifa, BLM, LGBT, feminism, Democrats, democratic socialists, they are protected by the system.
00:40:39.000Who could you name among the left wing so called populists or left wing radicals that is not able to have a YouTube channel, a Patreon page?
00:40:50.000Who among them is banned from Visa and MasterCard?
00:40:53.000Who among them is deplatformed from PayPal, much less?
00:40:58.000Many banks and underwriters in the country through alternative payment processors.
00:41:07.000That opposition is useful for the system.
00:41:11.000The only opposition, the only true opposition, is that which is being targeted and persecuted actively and laboriously by the system itself.
00:41:23.000It is the people that are called racist, insurrectionist, white nationalist, neo Nazi.
00:41:29.000That's where the resistance is going to be.
00:41:31.000The people whose books are getting banned from Amazon, the people whose videos are being removed from YouTube, the people who are being scrubbed from search algorithms on the Google search engine, the people whose Wikipedia pages they're editing and they control the whole up and down system, the people who have got a ready made dossier written about them by the ADL and SPLC, ready to go for any mainstream media outlet to plug into whatever article about them.
00:41:56.000It's those people who are the resistance, not surprisingly.
00:43:30.000I'm prepared to start back at square one and build it all back.
00:43:34.000I'm prepared to go back to those days when I was hungry and scrappy and trying to break in, break through into the scene and everything, because that's what you have to be.
00:43:43.000This is a dissonant movement, and nobody should get too comfortable.
00:43:56.000And do not be under any illusions about what we're doing, you know, what our goal is and the gravity of what we're trying to accomplish and the forces arrayed against us trying to stop us.
00:45:03.000I want to talk about Frederico Klein, our featured story.
00:45:06.000And, you know, this story isn't even so much about this guy himself, it's about broadly what's going on in the aftermath of the Trump Capitol riot.
00:45:17.000Frederico Klein, if you don't know, was a former Trump administration official, mid level guy, who, you know, he denies this, but he has been charged in connection with the Capitol riot.
00:45:30.000And since he was charged a few weeks ago, he has been held in prison without the ability to be released.
00:45:39.000And they'll probably hold him until he has a trial, until they decide whether he's innocent or guilty, and then they sentence him or they let him go.
00:45:47.000He's going to be held in jail indefinitely.
00:46:04.000It says, quote, a judge has ruled that a Trump appointed State Department employee will stay in jail after he was arrested last week for his alleged involvement in the deadly January 6th Capitol riot.
00:46:16.000Frederico Klein was arrested by the FBI last Thursday in connection with the Capitol riot.
00:46:22.000Klein is believed to be the first Trump political appointee accused by authorities of being involved in the riot.
00:46:28.000According to the State Department, he served as an appointee from 2017 until he resigned on January 24th.
00:46:34.000Excuse me, until January 21st of this year.
00:46:38.000The judge said in his ruling, The defendant placed himself in that chaotic riot.
00:46:44.000This was a group of people trying to do one thing, which is to stop democracy.
00:46:50.000Frederico Klein chose to put himself in the thick of the violence aimed at breaking through the center doorway on the lower west terrace to gain entrance to the Capitol building, wrote prosecutors in a detention memo.
00:47:01.000He used physical violence against officers who were protecting the entrance, and his individual participation in the larger mob heightened the overall violence and dangerousness of the day.
00:47:13.000Klein faces six charges, including assault, resisting or impeding certain weapons, and violent and disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds.
00:47:21.000He was allegedly part of a crowd of people attempting to breach the Lower West Terrace entrance to the Capitol and was seen shoving a riot shield towards a police officer.
00:47:31.000And this phenomenon is a violation of human rights because it's not just Frederico Klein, he's only a high profile case.
00:47:41.000It is hundreds, hundreds, Of Trump supporters who have been charged in connection with the riot who are being held without the possibility of release while they're awaiting their trial.
00:47:52.000Some of them for months, weeks, some of them being held in solitary confinement.
00:48:00.000And you have to understand that when it comes to federal jail like this, it's not like you put up money for bond and then they let you go.
00:48:09.000It's completely at the discretion of the judge, it's completely at the discretion of the feds whether or not they let you out.
00:48:16.000So, all of them, they don't have the option.
00:48:26.000What was the crime that many or most of them committed?
00:48:30.000Frederico Klein, he's being charged with assault and impeding certain weapons like the cops' riot shield.
00:48:38.000But most of the people charged in connection with the riot are being charged for trespassing.
00:48:44.000Not for assault, not for anything violent.
00:48:46.000They're being charged with trespassing.
00:48:48.000For being on restricted capital grounds, disorderly conduct.
00:48:53.000None of these are violent offenses, and yet they're being held without trial for months.
00:48:58.000And like I said, some of them in solitary confinement.
00:49:02.000And of course, this isn't the main point, but of course, it's worth pointing out how this compares with people on the left who have done similar things.
00:49:11.000We know that in most cases, left wing demonstrators, either Antifa or BLM, who were violent, who did attack cops, threw fireworks at them, And other things that police officers who were violent, people who were committing acts of violence against people and property, in many cases their charges were simply dismissed or they were never arrested.
00:49:33.000I can't think of one example of a left wing protester, Antifa, BLM, or anybody for any crime that was even arrested, much less charged, much less held like this for months without the possibility of being released before their trial.
00:49:49.000But this is what happens to Trump supporters committing nonviolent offenses.
00:49:54.000These people are not a threat to the society.
00:50:14.000The most that you could say about the Capitol riot is that it was a protest that made people uncomfortable, in the words of AOC, right?
00:50:22.000The most that you could say about the Capitol riot.
00:50:25.000Contrary to what people say, that it was an insurrection or a coup or a revolution, is that it was a protest that got out of hand.
00:50:34.000I think that's the most that you could say.
00:50:37.000And charge them with trespassing and charge them with disorderly conduct, sure.
00:50:41.000But these charges do not warrant being held without trial in federal prison for months at a time.
00:50:47.000Certainly not in solitary confinement and definitely not for these low level charges and for people who are otherwise nonviolent and have no criminal record.
00:50:58.000And keep in mind nobody is there to back these people up.
00:51:02.000Whenever a left wing protester is put in jail, they've immediately got a left wing legal apparatus, left wing Funding apparatus, they've got protesters, activists, media, they have got the full machinery activated to get this guy out of trouble.
00:51:19.000And for right wing people, where's that infrastructure?
00:51:21.000Where's the right wing ACLU that's going to defend these people?
00:51:25.000Where's the right wing civil rights advocacy group?
00:51:29.000Where's the right wing Soros who's going to put up the money for a legal defense for all these people?
00:51:35.000Where's the right wing infrastructure to protect our own people, to protect our own activists?
00:51:41.000And our own constituents and base doesn't exist.
00:51:45.000All the money that goes into Turning Point USA, all the money that goes into all these different organizations, CPAC and the GOP and everything else, right?
00:51:55.000And how much of that is going to freeing these people?
00:51:58.000And it's not only not going to help these people, in many cases, it's doing the opposite.
00:52:03.000People are being paid in the right wing media and in right wing activist class to condemn these people, calling them violent.
00:52:11.000Rioters, insurrectionists, and they have no place in the Republican Party, no place in the conservative movement.
00:52:21.000But as far as lawlessness goes, who is behaving in a more lawless manner?
00:52:26.000The people that protested at the Capitol on the 6th or the feds that are prosecuting them?
00:52:33.000This prosecution that's been built up of a thousand judges or lawyers and hundreds of FBI agents being scrambled around the clock to Surveil everybody, get their phone data, get their social media data, breach people's houses and raid their houses and everything like that.
00:53:03.000And if there are right wing billionaires, multi multi millionaires out there, right wing people, something's got to change here.
00:53:11.000Their money's got to start to go to help out these people.
00:53:14.000How can right wing people ever demonstrate again?
00:53:16.000How can they ever run for office ever again?
00:53:18.000How can right wing people participate in politics if there's always the specter of being totally crushed by the federal government and no backup, no recourse from the right wing political infrastructure?
00:53:32.000People would be willing to go up against the machine.
00:53:34.000People would be willing to run for office, protest, agitate, advocate, all these different things if they knew that there was an organization or money or something behind them that had their back.
00:53:46.000I'll say that we're working on things.
00:53:48.000You know, obviously, I don't have the resources that most in Con Inc. have, but I'm, you know, America First is putting together some options.
00:54:03.000We don't have the manpower that the rest of the right wing political apparatus has.
00:54:08.000And what are they doing with all that?
00:54:10.000Turning Point USA brags about how many tens of millions of dollars they raise, and that goes towards bang energy girls and cash cannons and conferences.
00:54:18.000How many protests did they do for Stop the Steal?
00:54:21.000What have they done for the people that have been victimized by the Capitol riots other than disavow them?
00:54:29.000And this is what happens in our country now.
00:54:30.000You know, aside just from the hypocrisy, of course, of the right wing apparatus, which does not protect its own people, and aside from the double standard applied to right and left wing people, this is just straight up political persecution.
00:54:46.000And you could see it, it's in black and white.
00:54:49.000Literally, the black people that protest don't get a fraction of this kind of response from the federal government.
00:54:58.000Black Lives Matter protests, Black people looting and shooting and drug dealing and all of that, they don't get a fraction of the response from the federal government that white people do when they protest against election fraud since November 3rd.
00:55:12.000And everybody knows that, and everybody sees that, and it's obvious.
00:55:16.000And how else can you explain that other than straight up, overt, and explicit, and obvious political persecution from the federal government?
00:55:25.000FBI and DOJ and all of the federal law enforcement.
00:55:31.000Infrastructure is now being wielded by the Democratic government against conservatives, just like they did under Barack Obama, although this time it's like on steroids.
00:55:42.000This time there's not a pretense, they're not hiding it, it's out in the open, and they've got the support of the media.
00:55:49.000They don't have to worry about anybody reporting on this on social media, and they've got half the country cheering them on, half the country cheering them along, knowing full well what's going on.
00:55:59.000So that's what's happening to Frederico Klein and many others.
00:56:04.000We'll be following some more of those individual cases on the show as it goes on.
00:56:09.000And like I said, we're putting together some plans behind the scenes to try to, you know, we're going to try and put something together as an answer to this.
00:56:17.000But when you talk about going up against the federal government, it is big money.
00:56:56.000And that's what these people are up against.
00:56:57.000They're standing basically on a train track, the federal government barreling towards them, and they don't have a chance.
00:57:06.000Regular people, regular people who went to a protest.
00:57:09.000And there's no Trump, there's no MAGA, there's no America First, there's no billionaire, there's no nothing there to help them out, and it's horrible.
00:57:53.000It's people walking through the halls of the Capitol taking selfies, walking in between the velvet ropes.
00:57:59.000And some of them were vandalizing, some of them were doing things, but, you know, the most that you could say about that was criminal mischief.
00:58:07.000Nothing there resembled or contrasted.
00:58:09.000A legitimate challenge to the sovereignty of the government.
00:58:12.000I mean, that's just ridiculous, but that's how they're treating it.
00:59:50.000I don't like jokes where it's too complicated, like that, you know, where it's like, what if we took this really long part of a song and replaced it with, you know, a meme?
01:02:48.000This is the first show to have a young white guy in a suit with a green screen cityscape and a blue Yeti snowball microphone and all of that.
01:07:25.000And, you know, I don't really know what to make of it.
01:07:28.000I mean, for as long as I've been watching his stuff, and I've been following Milo since I was like in high school, you know, because when I was a sophomore in high school, Sophomore, junior in high school.
01:07:42.000I remember reading his stuff on Breitbart and he was on his college tour and he was like the biggest thing in conservatism back then.
01:07:51.000And he was obviously at a bigger edge to him than like a Ben Shapiro.
01:07:57.000You know, he was a little bit tougher on feminism and Muslims and Trump and all that.
01:08:03.000And as long as I've been watching him, he always seemed to be sort of like reluctantly like homosexual.
01:08:08.000I mean, obviously, fully, you know, he embraced being flamboyantly gay and everything, but.
01:08:14.000I remember he'd always talk about it like he wasn't really in love with it.
01:08:19.000So, some people I saw, like Paul Joseph Watson tweeted about it, and all the replies were like, oh, it's a grift.
01:08:30.000And I don't really know what to make of it.
01:08:34.000I don't know him that well, but I have been watching his content.
01:08:38.000It seems sort of like a logical conclusion because even when I went on a show last year, he was talking about E. Michael Jones, and he was like, you know, I'm.
01:08:58.000I mean, it's not my place really to judge, but I think it's a good development.
01:09:03.000I think that's, you know, it's one of these things that a lot of conservatives are like, oh, well, we're a Big Ten, and this recent thing, like with Rick Grinnell, they want to turn a blind eye to the fact that that's immoral, you know, that being gay is immoral and LGBT is wrong.
01:09:21.000Because they want to welcome everybody in and they kind of want to get cachet with the left and everything.
01:09:27.000So it's good to see somebody that is like living that out.
01:09:30.000You know, they're like, I'm a conservative and conservative means Catholic and Catholic means you can't be gay.
01:09:35.000So it's good to see somebody take it all the way through to its logical conclusion and then make changes in their life.
01:09:41.000You know, to me, that shows that he's serious about what it means to be conservative, faith, all of that.
01:09:47.000So it's an interesting turn of events.
01:09:49.000And, you know, we'll see what happens.
01:10:33.000Because I was talking to somebody the other day.
01:10:36.000He was on his Telegram channel and he was saying, Oh, all these Groypers, they don't like me and they pressure their leaders to not say my name or say nice things about me, and this is hypocritical.
01:11:37.000I said in a group chat, because me and some of my friends were talking about it, I said, you know, like, he thinks that everybody's got a problem with him because he's gay, although we do, but the real reason why there has to be a big barrier is because he talks to the feds.
01:11:56.000It's like, you know, and I think I may have told him this, maybe I did, maybe I didn't, but you can't go on a stream and wave around an external hard drive and say, This is dirt that I have on everybody.
01:12:12.000Here's this hard drive I have on everybody.
01:12:15.000You can't do that and then expect that you're going to be able to be an entryist in a political movement and say, oh, why won't people bring me in?
01:12:22.000So, you know, as far as the gay thing goes, I texted him.
01:12:41.000But it's kind of funny because, you know, this development, and not that the two things are completely related, it just is a matter of timing.
01:12:51.000This article comes out today, and a few days ago he's going on this rant about Groypers won't accept me, Groypers won't accept me, and it's funny because, you know, you would think that maybe Groypers are not totally on board because he's gay, and that is partly true.
01:13:05.000But the really tough thing is this sort of like shady, I may be secretly recording you.
01:13:12.000And then I may secretly turn those recordings over to the feds.
01:13:15.000Like that proclivity, that behavior, that's really kind of the deal breaker.
01:13:21.000So if he could just consecrate himself to not doing that, then we could say, wow, really turned over a new leaf, really, all of that.
01:14:44.000Now, if he could just stop talking to the fucking scum pig federal government, if we could just, you know, we just stop doing that, then I think we're, we're, We're almost there, right?
01:14:57.000Cozy Biker says, Love and appreciate you, bro.
01:15:03.000Black Swan says Milo did an interview with LifeSite News recently saying he is ex gay, consecrated his life to St. Joseph, and is living chastely.
01:16:17.000I know all the things that everybody else knows about the hard drive, about all that kind of stuff, you know, and I'm careful with everybody because I know the game that people play.
01:17:21.000So it's worse to be in bed with the feds than in bed with a man, at least on an operational level.
01:17:28.000Now, they often go together, but associating with somebody who's in bed with other men, that's not going to get the fucking FBI raiding your house or getting you in trouble and everything like that.
01:17:41.000You don't turn up in some kind of a case years later, like Ricky Vaughn in Baked Alaska.
01:18:01.000So an armor truck in my town got robbed and held a gunpoint when they were picking up money at Walmart, and they actually made off with the money and still haven't been caught.
01:19:45.000Holden Groypfield says, LFG, simply looking at the America First Foundation site makes me want to dump my whole bank account into the cause.
01:20:37.000My opinion's the same as everybody else on that.
01:20:40.000I mean, Meghan Markle's like black or whatever, and she marries in, and she's an outsider, and she causes all these problems, and she's like a succubus.
01:21:03.000I don't really have an interesting take on that.
01:21:05.000He's a prince, he's a war hero, whatever.
01:21:08.000Then this evil woman gets in his life, gets her hooks in him, and ruins his life, you know, and causes all these problems with the royal family.
01:21:16.000She lies, she turns herself into the victim.
01:21:19.000I'm going to kill myself, and all this stuff.
01:24:50.000Pragmatic Culture says, was watching one of my old live streams when, in the middle of it, a YouTube notification popped up for America First episode 291, Taking Your Calls.
01:25:08.000Super Lionheart says, imagine these laid off HuffPo writers being laughed out of interviews since their quote unquote portfolios are filled with garbage, like how to get your dog into black trans activism.
01:27:16.000Mekki says, Hey, Nick, first show I've gotten to see live since AFPAC because of work.
01:27:21.000Was nervous going to AFPAC as I'm not the best at social gatherings, but when I got there, even the people I didn't know from online felt like family and could easily talk all night.
01:27:30.000Awesome to meet you, and just as awesome meeting my fellow Groypers in Christ.
01:27:44.000Pragmatic culture says, I don't know if you saw, but the House put forth a bill to make Puerto Rico a state.
01:27:50.000Not going anywhere right now, but what do you think about red parts of blue states seceding and creating their own states to counter the electoral votes?
01:27:58.000California has suggested this before, and I know New York is in a similar situation.
01:28:02.000Yeah, I think, I don't know how viable that is, but if Puerto Rico ever becomes a state, we'll have to do things like that to counter D.C. statehood, Puerto Rico statehood.
01:32:49.000At the impeachment trial, that was my impeachment trial moment.
01:32:52.000We got this guy in his giant purple polo.
01:32:56.000For fuck's sake, you work your whole life.
01:32:59.000You work your whole life to get to that moment when you're up there saying, Destroy the GOP, and it gets 5 million views on Twitter, and it's in the impeachment record twice.
01:33:09.000And we got this guy in his giant fucking purple polo shirt standing next to me.
01:35:14.000No matter what you say, they're never going to use it to help you.
01:35:17.000When they say whatever you say can and will be used against you, there's a reason they don't say whatever you say can and will be used to help or be used against you.
01:35:29.000Whatever you say to them can only be used against you whenever you talk to them.
01:35:34.000If you talk to them in your house, if they arrest you, wherever, whenever, It can only be used to hurt you, only be used to incriminate yourself.
01:41:00.000Polish American Groypers is when Donald Trump said, because his whole system's rigged, and we all know the riggers for the last eight years.
01:41:09.000This country's been run by in epic rap battles of history.
01:42:24.000I mean, look, if you're not going to become like a political dissident, honestly, I don't think it even really matters that much to tell you the truth.
01:42:33.000They have everything, whether you're on TikTok or not.
01:42:36.000I mean, the U.S. got, if you use Google, if you use a phone, if you use Facebook, if you text people, if you use Gmail, I mean, they've got everything.
01:42:45.000Oh, but they don't have your TikTok likes?
01:42:50.000Even if you're not on TikTok, I'm sure they have everything.
01:42:53.000I just assume that everybody has everything.
01:42:55.000The idea that you could protect yourself, I mean, you might as well just go move in the middle of nowhere and not have anything electronic, in my opinion.
01:43:42.000Okay, well, I didn't ask it like that.
01:43:44.000When you phrase it like that, I asked if you had an OnlyFans because I've taken pictures in the past with girls who turn out to have an OnlyFans and it's embarrassing.
01:44:07.000I said it like, wait, before we take a picture, do you have an OnlyFans?
01:44:12.000Okay, so I just want to correct the record there.
01:44:17.000Modern Monarchist says Some people are saying that I am compromised because I listen to Billy Joel, who is a degenerate songwriter and singer, but he is epic as well.
01:44:27.000Do I have to choose between Joel and America First?
01:44:56.000I think I've had that card for like two years now, for a year and a half or something.
01:45:01.000It says, Happy birthday, gamer, and I still have it.
01:45:04.000Didn't give it to her because she didn't get me anything.
01:45:07.000Arrest Prince Andrew says, The current news cycle is the calm before the storm before we find ourselves right back to the worshipping of St. Floyd after chauvinism.
01:45:24.000Modern Monarchist says, a shout out to Sean Breed, Tomoff, Harkin, Quantine, Lord Tushanks, Anglo.Runism, and anyone I may have forgotten, we got the best folks here, don't we?
01:45:37.000Unlike those treacherous whore who watch Dump Trick Assy.
