All right, guys, happy Wednesday. I want you guys to know that I did it. I did it. I joined Red
00:00:04.740
Note, the Chinese app that TikTok users are flooding to. A lot is in Mandarin. I'm trying
00:00:10.400
to learn ni hao. Some people are claiming that this is treachery, that we are traitors to America
00:00:15.940
to willingly give our data to a foreign nation. So let's discuss that. Plus, whoa, oh my, have you
00:00:22.840
guys heard about the Rory Sykes story? That is the former child actor, he was disabled, whose mother
00:00:28.700
claims that he died in their estate because the water was shut off, right? I'm talking about the
00:00:34.280
Californian fires. But the fire department is disputing her claim, saying that the water was
00:00:38.940
not shut off. So it is a story that seems to be haunting the internet. We should discuss it.
00:00:43.920
Also, Crunchy Moms, where are you at? The FDA has moved to ban Red Dye 3 from food.
00:00:49.620
What does all this mean? Welcome back to Candace.
00:00:58.700
All right. So my life is crazy. It wasn't even 9 a.m. this morning before I was accused
00:01:11.380
of being a Chinese spy. I'm not getting on X. Someone called me a Chinese spy. You're obviously
00:01:15.160
a Chinese spy. And yesterday I was accused of being funded by Qatar. And earlier this week,
00:01:20.280
I was accused of working for the Kremlin, Russia. So I really can't keep up. I've decided that I'm just
00:01:26.040
in my James Bond era. I'm working for everybody and nobody at the exact same time. So to what do
00:01:31.160
I owe this later honor? Okay. Well, I signed up for Red Note, as I said at the top of the show,
00:01:36.200
that is the Chinese app that TikTokers are now flooding to in anticipation of the ban,
00:01:41.160
which is scheduled to take effect this Sunday. Unless a Supreme Court miracle takes place,
00:01:46.820
meaning that the highest court in Milan would have to move to block it, TikTok is going to otherwise
00:01:52.480
shut its application for U.S. users. And yeah, there you go. We have a federal ban. And that feels
00:01:58.800
like it is creeping onto our free speech. President Joe Biden last April signed the law in requiring
00:02:06.180
ByteDance to sell its U.S. assets by January 19th, 2025, or they would face a nationwide ban. And it
00:02:13.680
looks like the Supreme Court, by the way, is inclined to uphold the law, despite the fact that I will say
00:02:18.440
Donald Trump has come in and said he'd like the deadline to at least be extended so that he can
00:02:23.480
get into office and take a look at it. Now, some people might be asking, and I think it's a fair
00:02:27.460
question, Candace, you are America first. You bill yourself as America first. How could you do this?
00:02:32.820
Okay. So I'm going to explain to you why, first and foremost, because it's funny. Okay. I have a very
00:02:37.580
good sense of humor and the federal government playing whack-a-mole with Gen Z is objectively hilarious.
00:02:42.900
Oh, we're going to get rid of this one. Boop. They pop up and they found another one and they're
00:02:46.400
posting and the posts are hilarious. We're going to get into it. And just to remind you yesterday,
00:02:50.900
we discussed this, the origin of all of this. Obviously, absolutely no person with a clear
00:02:56.820
thinking mind believes what they are trying to sell us right now, that this move was done
00:03:00.680
because the government is just so concerned about our data. Oh, it is so suddenly concerned about,
00:03:08.180
oh, we don't want China, China bad. They always like pick the boogeyman, China, Russia,
00:03:12.820
whatever it is that they think people will just accept. Right. We all know it's happening because
00:03:19.300
of Israel, which controls the United States government via aggressive lobbying. They're
00:03:23.520
concerned about which way the wind is blowing. We showed you that tape yesterday of Jonathan
00:03:28.340
Greenblatt from the ADL freaking out about not being able to control the thoughts of Gen Z. We have
00:03:32.840
a generational problem. He said, TikTok is crazy. They're all pro-Palestinian. And I also want to
00:03:38.380
jog your memory because they went so far as to say in the in the short term, which TikTokers notice,
00:03:42.980
they were already suppressing speech. Right. So this is because otherwise people will say you're
00:03:48.220
making this up. You have to show the evidence here. Israeli officials were bragging about their
00:03:53.400
ability to control speech, both on college campuses, getting various groups shut down that
00:03:58.340
were pro-Palestinian and also on social media. And so this clip I'm showing you, we showed you,
00:04:03.160
I think last year, it's Amakai Sheikli. I don't know if I'm saying his name correct. Anyways,
00:04:07.640
he is the head minister of diaspora affairs and anti-Semitism. And he was speaking with the
00:04:13.380
Jerusalem Post about their successful effort to censor speech that they claim is anti-Semitic
00:04:18.360
on TikTok. Take a listen. We work regularly with the leadership of social, various social
00:04:24.860
organizations. We had a lot of correspondents, especially with TikTok, because TikTok was very,
00:04:30.600
very problematic, especially at the beginning of the war. They have taken a lot of steps to try and
00:04:34.900
prevent anti-Semitism to go widely in their platform. It is better now than it was 10 months,
00:04:44.640
10 months ago. But still, there's a lot of work to do, especially, by the way, especially
00:04:49.480
on X. And actually, when you look at the recent trends of anti-Semitism in North America, we're
00:04:56.900
seeing influencers such as Candace Owens, such as Tucker Carlson, who is a leading leader,
00:05:06.640
an influencer, hosting someone who is a Holocaust denier. And I reacted publicly on his statements,
00:05:14.480
and I think it was a disaster. And this is very, very problematic. So when I see Tucker Carlson,
00:05:22.700
who is such an influencer and is a key role in the right-wing political dimension of America,
00:05:31.380
hosting someone who is a Holocaust denier, we're not silenced about it, not at all.
00:05:42.500
All right, we hear you loud and clear. Like I'm saying, they were doing this in plain sight.
00:05:46.220
Obviously, they rushed. The Congress passed it. Oh, my gosh, we have to deal with TikTok because
00:05:50.760
they have wrong ideas. Generation Z is problematic. And so here's the thing. You're not going to now
00:05:57.880
gaslight these same people. You're not going to gaslight them by telling us that the government
00:06:03.480
was totally cool with Facebook and the CIA and the NSA. Shout out to Edward Snowden, by the way,
00:06:09.920
stealing our data, spying on Americans. Yeah, the government was totally cool. Nothing had to be
00:06:14.200
done urgently. And now all of a sudden it does. That really is just government-level gaslighting.
00:06:20.760
China is the enemy. And as our government behaves like, well, China, actually, ironically,
00:06:28.160
it seems like they're taking a cue from China at the moment. The government pitch to you right now
00:06:32.960
is let us abuse you and control your speech, not China. Let us do it. Okay, maybe. Sure. What do
00:06:40.040
we get in return? What do we get in return? Maybe I would let our government abuse us. We've been doing
00:06:43.440
that for a long time, but we want to know what we get in return. Here's what they say to us. They say,
00:06:46.400
you're going to get high taxes, unaffordable living expenses, never-ending wars that we expect you
00:06:51.200
to die in that don't help your country whatsoever. You're going to get open borders. You're going to
00:06:55.800
get filthy crime-ridden cities. You're going to get students who can't pass basic literacy exams.
00:07:01.100
And in the process, we'll also call you racist, transphobic, and now anti-Semitic. In the process,
00:07:07.780
also, we will be forcing some vaccines into your arm. That's the trade-off, guys. You get to be
00:07:12.160
patriotic. The last thing they just ask you to do is also give them all of your data, right? Why
00:07:18.000
aren't you feeling patriotic to give the government all of your data? Yeah, shockingly, that pitch was
00:07:23.220
not a convincing enough argument for Gen Z. They just want to say stuff on the internet while
00:07:27.740
everything around them is burning. So they are signing up to Red Note, and it is pointedly
00:07:33.060
hilarious, okay? Chinese people are welcoming them on the app. They're creating videos to welcome
00:07:39.700
American refugees onto their app, okay? Take this one woman as just one example.
00:07:45.260
Hey, TikTok refugees! I swear to God, this is the most funny s*** ever seen since Brexit.
00:07:52.600
Okay, so my name is Roxy Cat, your cat sister here. I'm a little bit popular here, and clearly,
00:07:58.700
I'm one of the people that you don't need translation to understand. Yeah, since I've been here for so
00:08:03.360
long, so trust me when I say this, this should be your little retina 101. So we Chinese people,
00:08:09.200
we are really kind and heartwarming. You're gonna see us welcoming people everywhere, but there are
00:08:14.000
just some certain types of people that we don't welcome at all. First of all, if you ever think
00:08:19.420
Pen Express is the most delicious Chinese, forget the f*** out of here! Second of all, if you can't tell
00:08:24.800
the difference between a dragon and a lion, you've got five seconds to learn and report to me
00:08:28.900
immediately. Third, if you ever dare to mix us up with Japanese or Korean, you'll be put into the
00:08:36.140
plague zone immediately. Unless we messed up and pretend that we are Korean ourselves. Yeah, a few
00:08:42.100
things. Don't say any s*** about our country. It's the key to respect. But hey, if you want to talk
00:08:47.520
about yours, it's okay. You're already referenced now. So that's just one woman. And then it was
00:08:54.240
actually kind of funny because on X, people were saying, you don't even realize what you're signing
00:08:58.000
up for. This app bans people for being LGBTQ. So welcome to an app that is sponsored by communists.
00:09:05.700
And there definitely are Chinese people making videos and they're very funny. So this is meant
00:09:10.740
to be tongue in cheek for sensitive people that are out there about being gay. Take a listen.
00:09:15.860
There's only two gender out here, male and female. If you are gay, just be gay. Don't talk about
00:09:24.120
you're gay. We all know you're gay. Just don't talk about it. If you're a lesbian, you cool. You
00:09:31.680
cool. If you're LGBTQ, whatever, keep it that s*** to yourself. So these are the rules that they're
00:09:38.280
laying down for Americans that are joining the app. And some Americans are creating all of these videos
00:09:43.140
and making videos to one another, other Americans being like, we, we need to actually follow these
00:09:48.200
rules. Uh, just like this one American user who is warning other people in the USA that we just,
00:09:54.400
we got to listen this time. Take a listen. I'm seeing a lot of y'all showing out on this app.
00:09:59.540
Hey, we are guests in this house. This is not our house.
00:10:03.840
I don't want to get kicked off of this one. I'm sorry. I just find it funny. And I'm a guest on
00:10:12.240
the app. I want to see what they're doing. I want to keep track of this revolution, people revolting
00:10:17.260
against the government. And you know what? I like this because it does send a strong message to our
00:10:22.040
government. And the message that it's sending is we're not stupid. Okay. Despite your every effort
00:10:26.520
that you're making via lobbying, the educational brainwashing that takes place in the classroom,
00:10:31.900
trying to dumb down entire generations. They're not stupid. Okay. They understand that you're all
00:10:38.400
a bunch of sellouts. If you are going to ask the American population to be America first,
00:10:44.740
you have to be America first, first, right? How about you be America first, first? You guys have
00:10:50.420
showed us that you can be Ukrainian first, that you can be Israel first, that you can be big pharma
00:10:55.300
first, that you can be whoever it is that is signing your checks first. And then you dare look at
00:11:00.520
Gen Z in the face and you say, how dare you freely give your data to China? When in reality,
00:11:07.400
what you're trying to do is to emulate the Chinese system by censoring people's speech,
00:11:12.600
censoring their opinions, telling them essentially your TikTok is wrong think. And so we're going to
00:11:17.240
compel them to sell. They see that. Like I said, they aren't stupid. Our government now really has
00:11:23.040
become, it's like when you grow up with a friend who has a mom that's drunk all the time,
00:11:27.940
and then like your friend starts drinking early and the mom, her mom pretends to be like devastated
00:11:32.380
by the fact that her daughter is involved in drinking and in drugs. And you're like,
00:11:36.760
you set the example first, like you betrayed America first, right? So yeah, if the kids are
00:11:42.340
rebelling, maybe you should think about what sort of an example you have set as a parent. And the
00:11:46.240
reality is, is that our Congress has set a horrific example. Like I said, they have betrayed this
00:11:51.820
nation first. And so I am here for this. Okay. I am on the app. I'm showing you guys a screenshot of
00:11:57.000
me on the app. There you go. A millennial documenting the Gen Z revolt against TikTok.
00:12:02.200
I am proud. I really don't understand much on it because I don't speak Mandarin, but I'm going to do
00:12:08.080
my best. And I'm going to try to post my first video today. And, and that's my perspective. I
00:12:11.760
actually view this to be strangely, I know it sounds paradoxical. One of the most American things that
00:12:18.040
has happened this year, like just revolting against authoritarianism. That's what this is.
00:12:24.440
And saying, you can stop pretending that you have the upper hand now that you, we have the upper
00:12:29.140
moral hand and like our society is being run efficiently. We'd rather willingly give our
00:12:34.460
data to China because at least we know who they are. They're not pretending to be something else.
00:12:38.000
That's all I'm going to say on that topic before we get into this scary story. First, I'm going to
00:12:44.520
talk to you guys about the wellness company. One of our sponsors are the globalists gearing up for
00:12:49.060
a pandemic scare after the failing at the ballot box November. Well, just weeks before president
00:12:54.140
Trump's inauguration, California governor Gavin Newsom has declared a bird flu state of emergency,
00:12:59.200
granting himself sweeping powers remission of COVID-19 policies. This comes after a severe case
00:13:04.120
of bird flu was reported in Louisiana. Critics warn that pandemic fears may be weaponized to challenge
00:13:08.880
Trump's agenda, including the nomination of RFK Jr. to lead the HHS. Is this a health crisis or is
00:13:14.480
a power play? Last summer, Dr. Peter McCullough warned about the bird flu linking the virus's
00:13:18.740
rapid spread to gain of function research, which seems to be now a common practice at many labs
00:13:23.980
globally. Dr. McCullough urges early prevention just in case recommending a contagion emergency kit
00:13:29.820
from the wellness company. His medical board approved solution with five critical life-saving
00:13:34.400
medications like ivermectin, Tamiflu, and nebulizer and hydroxychloroquine. Every household can now have
00:13:39.800
access to these hard to get medications in the event of another pandemic. So get yours by filling out
00:13:44.440
digital intake form and your kit will arrive between one to two weeks. Do not wait until
00:13:48.580
the deep state puts their plans into action. Stay ready for the unexpected. If you're a U.S. resident,

00:14:00.700
TWC.health.candis and use code CANDIS today. Okay, you guys got to get into this story. I need your
00:14:08.000
opinions. I need to read the chat as this is happening. This is the headline. Okay. Former child actor,
00:14:13.040
Rory Sykes, killed in LA fires as water ran dry, his mother says. And I don't know if they're supposed
00:14:19.460
to say he died. It's interesting that they said killed because that seems to be what's at debate
00:14:23.980
here. And I want to say right away, I am not alleging anything happened here. I'm not trying
00:14:29.460
to get any legal trouble. I am literally just looking at the internet and the commentary and
00:14:34.120
acknowledging that this does seem to be a bit disturbing to have the fire department at odds
00:14:39.620
with a mother's story. Okay. So this is regarding a 32 year old man, as mentioned,
00:14:45.140
his name is Rory Sykes. Now, Rory, just so you know, was his mother said he was born blind and he
00:14:51.320
lived with cerebral palsy. He was also a child actor. He had appeared as a child in just a couple of
00:14:57.100
shows, one of them being a British show. His mother is listed on the credit as being one of the
00:15:01.380
producers, I believe, called Kitty Capers. Now, given his condition in his adult years, he lived on an
00:15:08.740
estate in Malibu with his mother, a 17 acre estate, massive estate upon which he lived in his own
00:15:15.680
self-contained cottage. His mother's name is Shelly Sykes. She is a TV production entrepreneur,
00:15:22.260
hence her being on the credits of the few appearances that he had when he was a child.
00:15:28.160
And I'm giving you a photo of her. Those are her with her son. You can see he is standing and
00:15:34.320
she has very large eyes. That's what you could see in this photo. Okay. Shelly announced on social
00:15:40.060
media and also via the news that her son had died in the wildfires. Okay. I want you to listen to her
00:15:47.700
recount the story. She appeared on Australia's Channel 10 News. And here's what she had to say.
00:15:54.260
Rory, who was born blind with cerebral palsy, lived in a self-contained cottage on the property.
00:15:59.920
Embers were raining down. Shelly's hoses ran dry. He said, Mom, leave me. No, Mom can leave the kid.
00:16:11.440
And I've got a broken arm. I couldn't lift him. I couldn't move him. She drove 400 metres through
00:16:17.600
the smoke to her local fire station for help. They said, we've got no water. And I said,
00:16:23.200
oh my God, my son is locked in his room. While crews closer to sea level had water,
00:16:28.240
in the mountains, they were armed only with axes and couldn't stop the flames taking over.
00:16:34.600
When the fire department brought me back, his cottage was burnt to the ground.
00:16:40.900
With support from her friends, Shelly is contemplating a class action and a rebuild.
00:16:47.060
I'm not going to move. I'm going to, that's going to be the place, a special place
00:16:51.660
for Rory and I. And we'll re, we'll make it even more beautiful than it already was.
00:16:59.300
Okay. Obviously very sad to think that Rory died. He did die in this fire. And here's where things get
00:17:07.560
a little different, strange, if you will. Okay. So she also tweeted the story and announced that it
00:17:15.820
is with great sadness that I have to announce the death of my beautiful son. It says a little bit
00:17:20.080
about his career. And, and the relevant portion is that she says, I'm totally heartbroken. I couldn't
00:17:25.780
put out the cinders on his roof with the hose because the water was switched off. Okay. I'm going
00:17:32.680
to read that again. I couldn't put out the cinders on his roof with the hose because the water was
00:17:38.240
switched off by the last, last Virginia's municipal water department. Even the 50 brave firefighters had no
00:17:47.760
water all day. He will be incredibly missed by, um, herself. She tags herself in this, uh, at Shelly
00:17:55.380
Sykes, his mama and his pet peacocks. And she says that the peacocks survived the fire. Well, a spokesperson
00:18:02.180
for the last Virginia's municipal water denied her claims saying that the water service did remain
00:18:08.520
available and was uninterrupted to her property and the entire surrounding community. That was the
00:18:14.520
first flag. People going, okay, what's really happening here? Cause according to news channel
00:18:18.660
10, which we just showed you, they said that the mother told them that the son died from carbon
00:18:22.620
monoxide poisoning. And you heard her recounting that story. And now you have the water department
00:18:28.020
saying that the water was actually never shut off. Then when you start to look into more things that
00:18:32.880
people are saying on the internet, you know, they're beginning to question her narrative also,
00:18:37.400
because at some point she says that he wasn't able to walk. And so in case you don't know,
00:18:42.420
cerebral palsy is not a degenerative disease. It does not progress with time. Now, of course,
00:18:47.860
any lifelong disease that you have, as you age and get older, you can, uh, have issues that can
00:18:53.620
stem from having that diagnosis, but it is not a progressively degenerative disease. And he was able
00:18:59.460
to walk. She said so herself when she had Rory, when he was a child on a talk show. Now, again,
00:19:05.920
she says he's blind and he has cerebral palsy, but she says that he can walk normally like other kids.
00:19:10.860
Here is them on a talk show from a long time ago.
00:19:14.300
Rory was born blind and he said he'd never walk. And, um, Rory at the age of four took his first
00:19:21.360
steps. Um, he, you know, the doctors find it very, very hard to actually explain to parents that things
00:19:28.600
can happen and develop because of frightened of being sued. And when I was told that I knew Rory
00:19:33.920
couldn't see when he was born and I persisted with the hospitals to say, look, you know, please check
00:19:39.900
him out. And when I, um, persisted, they checked him with an, a, a CT scan and they announced that
00:19:46.820
he had got cerebral palsy. And at that stage, I didn't know what cerebral palsy was. And I went,
00:19:50.400
oh, good. So he's not just blind, then it's something else. And he said, oh yes, it's, um,
00:19:54.940
brain damage. So of course I was absolutely horrified. I thought I'd got a blind cabbage.
00:20:00.680
But with lots of love and dedication, Rory's been having his eyes patched for the last eight years.
00:20:06.900
He had an operation to straighten a squint and he's had, um, these special callipers. And before we
00:20:13.960
moved here, we had, um, his legs straightened. So now I can walk and tall and straight. He's like a
00:20:19.680
normal child, aren't you? Yes. And I think the big message is that anything's possible.
00:20:25.600
I dream, therefore I am. It's Rory's myself. And I wasn't clear when we looked at this clip
00:20:31.600
because he was making good eye contact with her as well as the host. The clip was a little bit longer
00:20:35.560
and he makes eye contact with the audience. And she does say he was born blind and he had some eye
00:20:40.300
aberration. So I don't know if he was, if he was no longer blind, that part wasn't, like I said,
00:20:44.580
exactly clear to me. So I don't want to misreport on it, but that struck us as interesting. You said,
00:20:48.940
you hear her say that he's able to walk fine. We showed you another photo of them on the red carpet
00:20:52.960
where he seems to be standing fine next to her. So people were asking questions about why,
00:20:59.220
when this story was retold, it was as though he could not walk. Uh, and it seems that she really
00:21:05.240
loved, like she herself had Hollywood aspirations. So this is just from her,
00:21:10.300
website. Um, hi, I'm Shelley Sykes. And she talks about how she's an entrepreneur. She's a TV
00:21:15.340
producer. She's an actress. She's a voiceover artist, a singer, a songwriter. And it almost
00:21:19.580
seems like she was getting her child out there because she maybe had her own ambitions. And as
00:21:25.600
more evidence of that, she actually tried out, is it a Britain's got talent? Uh, I don't know if it
00:21:32.440
Australia's got talent rather because they're Australia, Australian. So take a look at her
00:21:38.980
My name's Shelley Sykes and I wrote a song called Sexy Single and Ready to Mingle.
00:21:51.980
I'm here because I actually psych people up. So I'm Dr. Shelley Sykes. I write books and I sing
00:21:59.580
I guess you think you could probably win this show, right?
00:22:14.520
Edward Bolner says love is a must. Don't be a Bridget Jones push in the dust. Shine your
00:22:20.160
light, be the best you can. I guarantee you'll find a green man. Sexy single and I'm ready
00:22:36.640
If you want love then this is the plan. Stop being a boy and stop being a man. If you want
00:22:42.240
love it, laugh and learn. Energy's what we've got to burn. Where it's not a single set get
00:22:48.140
the pit. We go on a runaround from a brick. Our love is special. We need to be a girl.
00:22:58.880
Listen. Listen. I, like I said, am not going to race to any conclusions here. I'm just telling
00:23:04.740
you that the internet has a ton of questions. And of course, that's going to be, I think,
00:23:10.500
fair questions when your account is at odds with the account from the water department,
00:23:16.080
which claims that no, actually, this did not happen. You're saying that you couldn't get
00:23:19.660
the fire off the roof. She also says that he told her to just leave him. Uh, I just don't
00:23:26.120
know. I don't know what to make of this. And like I said, there's many more clips of her
00:23:29.980
on this pursuit of fame. It looks like throughout her life. I will let the internet internet and say
00:23:36.980
no more officially. Obviously, uh, she has said that he died in this fire because she had
00:23:44.580
no water and could not put any water on the roof of his cottage. So we'll leave that there
00:23:51.640
and, uh, allow the investigators to step in from there. All right, guys, I want to remind you about
00:23:57.620
Gold Co. It's officially 2025 and we could be in for a seriously bumpy ride because we've got a new
00:24:01.960
president on the way and there is some bad news he's going to have to deal with. Uh, he's going to
00:24:07.240
have to deal with the stock market volatility. There are credit card, credit card defaults that are
00:24:11.800
soaring, global conflicts that don't seem to be going anywhere. And the national debt of course
00:24:16.260
is bursting at the seams. You know, the saying hope for the best, but plan for the worst. Well,
00:24:19.720
that's what I'm doing. And that's exactly why I partner with the top precious metals company,
00:24:22.780
which is Gold Co. I've personally done business with them and they are the best right now. My

NimiSkincare.com. All right. Carrie Underwood is due to perform at Trump's inauguration. I'm sure you
00:25:55.220
guys have all seen this. I didn't realize that people were having a freak out about this. I didn't
00:25:58.740
realize that people didn't realize that Carrie Underwood is country. I don't know. I'm more
00:26:03.300
surprised that they're surprised. I'm surprised at the surprise. She just issued a statement saying
00:26:09.000
that she loves the country and that she's honored to have been asked to sing at the inauguration and
00:26:13.280
to be a small part of this historic event, that she's humbled to answer the call at a time when we
00:26:18.140
must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future. And people were having a bit
00:26:24.000
of a meltdown about this. I guess they thought she was Taylor Swift, I guess, or something,
00:26:27.800
which is very strange to me. So first off, some people are just kind of screaming, which is normal
00:26:32.760
and to be expected, because I don't know if that seems to be the go-to. Open your phone and just
00:26:37.460
scream at the sky like this young woman on TikTok.
00:26:46.740
Basically, her caption says, when you have to find a new karaoke song, because we can't all just be
00:26:55.680
girls, girls. And another TikToker similarly was very upset with the news because Trump orange man
00:27:03.280
bad. Take a listen. Carrie Underwood, what happened to putting Louisville sluggers into the headlights of
00:27:08.680
men who cheat? What happened to that? Oh, we can just sing at their inaugurations now. That's just
00:27:14.520
cool, fun and fresh. What happened to carving your name into his leather seats? Doesn't apply anymore,
00:27:21.480
I guess. And she's not the only one who has a question about why Carrie Underwood would possibly
00:27:27.800
perform at Trump's inauguration. How could she do this to us? Here's another young woman who really
00:27:34.120
explains the logic of why Carrie Underwood just should not have done this. Take a listen.
00:27:39.080
Carrie Underwood, it appears we have lost you. Can I just say, I'm devastated. I loved a,
00:27:50.400
I dug my keys into the side of it. And you know what, can I just say, I saw you on New Year's Eve,
00:28:00.120
Carrie with TLC. I remember the days of American Idol when you used to kick it backstage with Fantasia
00:28:07.580
and Ruben. Carrie, are they holding you hostage? Do we need to have a free Carrie sign at the
00:28:13.940
inauguration? And you know what, can I just say, if it's any more of you undercovers, I need you to
00:28:20.900
throw on that MAGA cap with your chest today because I need at least two to three business days to grieve
00:28:29.320
you. Oh, this surprise attack? Uh-uh. I wasn't ready for all that. Put that to rest.
00:28:35.760
Okay. So what's really interesting is they all keep bringing up the same song, which is really
00:28:41.860
funny to me. I dug my key into the side, which makes me believe that these aren't actually Carrie
00:28:47.120
Underwood's fans. These are people that watched American Idol and then didn't follow her for the
00:28:50.280
rest of her career, uh, because that was the debut song off of her album in 2005, 2005. That was the
00:28:58.460
debut song. So we're talking literally 20 years ago. They have no other reference regarding Carrie
00:29:03.800
Underwood. And if you follow Carrie Underwood on Instagram and have followed her career since,
00:29:09.500
you know that she has been dropping music about Jesus Christ. She's been dropping gospel music and
00:29:15.160
she farms, like she's very big into farming. I actually bought property near Carrie and attended
00:29:21.140
the same church as Carrie Underwood and Mike Fisher and had Mike Fisher on my show when I was over at
00:29:26.860
The Daily Wire. And there's just no question in my mind that they were conservative. Everybody,
00:29:30.900
they're Tennesseans. Like I just, this is completely crazy. I think it just comes from
00:29:36.360
sort of this snoot of believing that everyone in Hollywood belongs to them and they don't follow
00:29:40.700
their careers. They don't support their music. Clearly these people do not listen to Carrie
00:29:44.360
Underwood's new music whatsoever. They have no idea what she's doing. They're just shocked that somebody
00:29:48.380
in Hollywood with, um, her celebrity would have the audacity to perform about a country, a country that
00:29:54.000
she cares about. She's a lovely woman, lovely family, strong family, faithful family, which means of course
00:29:59.340
she does not give herself to the demonic, all of the demonic things that the, the left has been
00:30:04.720
advocating for would just not naturally fit in with her brand, right? You don't drop an album
00:30:08.820
about Jesus Christ called the Lord is our savior, uh, and simultaneously vote for a woman who ran the
00:30:15.540
entire election about aborting children. Like common sense. Carrie Underwood is clearly a conservative.
00:30:20.980
I can't even believe this is even up for debate, uh, but it's been interesting. So they've now taken
00:30:25.400
into her comment section on Instagram to just leave evil notes. And again, referencing the same
00:30:30.640
song over and over again, because these aren't actually, uh, Carrie Underwood fans and she's not
00:30:34.800
going to lose any, any sleep or any money over this, but they were commenting on a post ironically of her
00:30:40.360
gardening. Cause that's what she does. And she just wrote spent all day yesterday dealing with all the
00:30:45.980
garlic in the root cellar. I'll have a new crop coming later this year. So I figured I might as well
00:30:50.440
preserve last year's hall. And here are the comments under it. Don't forget to carve a swastika
00:30:56.180
into his leather seats, girl. Will you be performing before he cheats? Shame on you.
00:31:01.640
Carrie Underwood. Um, Kelly Clarkson will always be better than you. Something smells, but it ain't
00:31:08.220
the garlic girl. It's just so petty and ridiculous. And one person really just comes to her and says,
00:31:14.720
as a longtime fan that's been to all of your concerts, including Vegas, I'm heartbroken at your
00:31:19.220
decision to perform next week. I thought you stood for love and acceptance, not hate and judgment.
00:31:22.840
And obviously it's just the loving and accepting people that just cannot accept that the middle of
00:31:29.120
America does not think like the people do, uh, in Los Angeles and in New York. And it's okay. You can
00:31:36.020
still enjoy her music, but if you should just pay attention to her lifestyle and see that it is not
00:31:40.400
synonymous with leftism. So I'm excited about Carrie Underwood performing, uh, because she is,
00:31:45.620
she's just a wonderful person. She's a wonderful human being. And it's hopefully it will encourage
00:31:49.820
all of these celebrities who are in my DMS. There are so many more celebrities that support Trump,
00:31:56.040
support conservative values and hate everything the left is doing, but they're so fearful of losing
00:32:00.300
their entire platforms. They're fearful of that backlash. And so when you see someone like Carrie
00:32:04.580
Underwood do something like this, which is actually incredibly brave of her, I think it gives permission
00:32:08.700
to the other people that are hiding in the closet, like they're gay people in the eighties to come on out
00:32:14.460
and to recognize that actually it's the majority of the country that thinks its way it's, you know,
00:32:18.640
RFK has made things infinitely more moderate as well. And if you're, if you don't have the courage
00:32:23.560
to come out now, when are you going to come out would be the question. All right, guys, speaking of
00:32:28.360
RFK jr, it is also of interest that the FDA has suddenly announced that they are going to ban. Okay.
00:32:36.360
They're going to ban, get this, uh, the red three dye, red dye number three from foods actually.
00:32:44.460
And just red dye number three, by the way, some people are misreporting and they're saying that
00:32:48.080
it's all red dyes. No, they would never go that far. The timing is unbelievably suspicious that
00:32:52.720
they would suddenly do this. Uh, they announced this on Wednesday. Yeah. Yeah. We're going to do
00:32:57.300
something good, uh, for the food supply 35 years after the red dye was barred from cosmetics because
00:33:04.920
of the potential cancer risk. So they were like, we don't want you putting on your face, but it's
00:33:09.180
totally fine for your kids to be consuming this because that's where it is. It's an, it's, it's literally a red
00:33:13.820
dye chemical that's in tons of foods, even cherries, by the way, like if it looks too red, it could be
00:33:18.960
dyed that color red to convince you to buy it. But actually it's also giving you potentially cancer
00:33:24.920
and they've allowed this to go on. And they said that it was just a matter of, of looking into some
00:33:29.680
of the studies that they have found that the dye causes cancer in lab rats. Again, they have known
00:33:35.640
this for at least 35 years, likely longer. And so people are rooting this on like, this is amazing.
00:33:42.560
This is a good thing that they're doing this, but this seems like I said, the timing of this
00:33:46.540
seems remarkably suspicious. It's almost because they know that our trust with them has been
00:33:50.580
fractured, that the make America healthy again, agenda is coming as many of them will try to block
00:33:55.380
fully block, um, RFK junior from even because they don't like the nomination at all. They don't want
00:34:01.320
to see him take over the FDA. They don't want to see him nominated as the head of the HHS. So it's
00:34:05.860
almost like they're trying to give the public something of like, we don't need an RFK junior
00:34:08.860
to slice stuff up. We're responsible. We're going to take away one of these cancer causing
00:34:14.780
agents out of your children's food. I mean, there, it is completely logical for us to say
00:34:20.940
that our government has just been poisoning us for decades. You know, me, I'm an anti-vaxxer.
00:34:25.300
And so to hear this story of, well, we recognize that like it causes some cancer in rats. It is the
00:34:30.460
story over and over and over again. When you start looking into the history of vaccines, when you look
00:34:34.940
into, when you learn about fluoride, when you learn about the things that for whatever reason are
00:34:38.920
banned everywhere else in the world, but are not banned here in the United States. That's why I say
00:34:43.080
that I truly believe that we are the lab rats. Like America has become the lab rat nation. You can put
00:34:48.680
stuff in food, Monsanto, that you cannot put in the UK. The food tastes differently when you're in the
00:34:53.520
UK. Obviously I spent a lot of time there because of my husband. And it's just incredible that when you
00:34:57.500
go there, you wonder why is America allowed to poison Americans? What, what, because the reality is,
00:35:03.840
is because in the UK lobbying isn't allowed. That's the truth. They don't allow lobbying.
00:35:08.440
So you can't come to the politicians with a check and be a food manufacturer and say, um, yeah,
00:35:14.580
I know it's poison, but can you pretend to not see what these studies are showing? Because we're
00:35:18.980
going to enrich you. And wouldn't you rather just be rich and sell out the American people? And the
00:35:23.520
congressman eight out of 10 times say yes to that. They're totally fine with that. Maybe they're not
00:35:28.180
feeding their kids that crap, but they're happy to feed it to us. And so all of these things should be up
00:35:32.520
for debate. Fluoride, vaccines, all of the diets that are putting into food. Why is it so hard for
00:35:37.720
us to just be able to eat real food in America? You see the results of this everywhere. People are
00:35:42.480
depressive. People are fat. People didn't look like this in the eighties. And again, this is because
00:35:47.080
one of the things that makes America great, which is a free market environment, people wanting to
00:35:52.600
compete and wanting to make money is also one of the things that can prove detrimental when you have
00:35:58.420
people that are cowards and are willing to make money doing awful things and harming people.
00:36:02.380
And that, my friends, is the DC bubble in a nutshell. That is the swamp that we are trying to drain.
00:36:08.740
And so I'm going to cut to this clip. So if you don't know a little bit about red dye of RFK Jr.
00:36:15.220
Doritos, Cheez-Its, Cap'n Crunch, gummy bears. Everyone knows that these are junk foods. So
00:36:21.600
maybe you wouldn't be too surprised to see that the ingredients include a lot of poisons,
00:36:26.780
including a harmful yellow dye called tatrazine or yellow dye number five. What you may not know
00:36:33.180
is that this dye was originally made out of the sludge that's left over when you turn coal into
00:36:38.700
coke for blast furnaces. Over the past 16 years, the government has banned eight chemical additives
00:36:44.680
that cause cancer, genetic damage, asthma, and many of the other self-conditions as tartrazine does.
00:36:51.980
And you know what's interesting? All eight of those crucial steps forward in our kids' health
00:36:56.560
were taken under President Trump. But the Democrats who claim to be all about health care have stood by
00:37:02.640
watching other countries ban these poisons that make our kids sick, asthmatic, hyperactive,
00:37:08.460
and depressed. They left them on every supermarket shelf in America. They even used your tax money
00:37:14.660
to put them in your kids' school lunch. That is true. And it makes me happy that I can announce
00:37:20.820
that I've told you guys A Shot in the Dark is coming back this month. We're just a couple of
00:37:23.800
weeks away from that. As we launch our platform, we will have A Shot in the Dark, which will take
00:37:28.320
you through the vaccine series, take you through the birth control series. Women don't even know what
00:37:32.440
you're putting in your body every single day. And then we're going to go through food so that you
00:37:35.700
can have that base understanding of the fact that your government has been poisoning you for a very
00:37:39.980
long time while also gaslighting you with names. You're an anti-vaxxer. Yes, ma'am.
00:37:44.660
I am. Hello. Nice to meet you. I'm just anti-poisoning children. I know it's so crazy.
00:37:50.480
It's so crazy. I'm anti-poisoning children. I don't care how much money you have as a lobbying
00:37:54.480
group. You are not going to delude me into believing that these things are healthy for
00:37:58.080
children simply so that some people can make a ton of money. And people should be arrested for
00:38:03.340
this stuff. Truly, they should be arrested for the things that they have done. Big Pharma is itself,
00:38:09.560
in and of itself, a cancer. It is a cancer that is giving cancer and giving addictions to all of us.
00:38:14.540
And you should be angry that your government has allowed this to take place. So when they look at
00:38:18.200
us and they say, why are you joining this Chinese app? You can look back at them and say, why have
00:38:22.300
you been poisoning us since the 90s, since I've been growing up? Why are you continuing to poison
00:38:27.120
our children? Why are you continuing to gaslight us and censor our speech because we're starting to
00:38:31.080
notice? If they can't answer those questions, then, you know, screw them. Who cares? All right,
00:38:35.780
guys, I also speaking on that topic of addictions that are coming from the government,
00:38:40.020
coming from Big Pharma. You guys had so many comments about the debate, which now beyond like
00:38:45.040
Michaela and me debating it, but the differences between dependency and addiction. So I want to
00:38:49.600
get into that. First, I want to remind you about American financing, because I know there are so
00:38:52.320
many people that are struggling with high credit card bills. Well, there is no better time than right
00:38:55.440
now to wipe out that debt and set yourself up for a strong 2025. Interest rates have fallen,
00:38:59.640
and my friends at American Financing can help you access equity in your home at an interest rate in
00:39:04.020
the fives. That is much lower rate than the average 25% credit card rate. So think about how much
00:39:09.020
you could be saving every month. American financing is saving their customers an average of $800 a
00:39:13.720
month. That's like a $10,000 raise to start the new year. They are closing in as fast as 10 days
00:39:18.200
and even delaying two mortgage payments. So call American financing today at 800-795-1210. That's
00:39:24.340
800-795-1210. Or you can visit Americanfinancing.net slash Owens. Again, that's Americanfinancing.net slash
00:39:32.400
Owens. Okay. So you guys had so many comments about addiction versus dependency.
00:39:38.200
The overwhelming majority of people saying it's the exact same thing, right? Some people saying,
00:39:43.200
no, it's slightly different. You know, I guess the difference that they're trying to establish
00:39:47.300
between being an addict and being independent is whether or not it begins to ruin your life.
00:39:52.240
And I just don't agree with that. Fundamentally do not agree with that. But there was a woman who
00:39:56.800
emailed me at, on our info box yesterday. She's a doctor, she's a psychologist, and she explained
00:40:02.560
something that made me go, ah, that makes a lot of sense. And so I'm going to read you, I just,
00:40:06.860
bits of her email, but while protecting her identity, she wrote to me, in your most recent
00:40:11.180
episode, Justin Unfollows Usher, you mentioned your recent debate with Michaela Peterson, which of
00:40:16.020
course I saw, and I had to share some thoughts on both your addiction dependence stance and any changes
00:40:21.720
displayed by Dr. Jordan Peterson on October 7th. To establish my credibility, since there's not much
00:40:26.920
you can find out about me online, because I stopped social media in 2016, I got back on last year,
00:40:31.860
blah, blah, blah, blah. She just basically tells me like all of her doctor credentials.
00:40:34.780
Anyways, she says, I graduated in 2011, was trained using the DSM-IV and the DSM-IV-TR, okay? So that
00:40:43.900
was the diagnostic manual when we were told, for just giving you one example, that gender dysphoria
00:40:50.700
was a mental disorder. And then remember, then they changed it and they dropped the DSM-V, right?
00:40:56.140
The diagnostic manual changed, and suddenly we were all being called transphobic. This was
00:41:00.520
literally what we grew up with, okay? So she writes, substance abuse was taught,
00:41:06.540
she's talking about the DSM-IV again, as an addiction. So back when we were told that gender
00:41:12.520
dysphoria was a mental disorder, it was the same time that substance abuse was being taught as an
00:41:17.420
addiction. Then upon the release of DSM-V, she continues, everything changed, which I and many
00:41:24.440
colleagues believe was for the worst. I can elaborate on those changes, but to save time,
00:41:29.060
I won't. As mentioned above, I was able to get two treatment centers accredited, and that was through
00:41:34.440
my extensive work on policies and procedures, utilization, review. A few years later, I was an
00:41:39.340
adjunct professor at the University of Bridgeport's Naturopathic School of Medicine, where I taught
00:41:43.500
third-year doctoral students psychological diagnosis and counseling. I am very well-versed on the differences
00:41:49.080
between addiction and dependence. In a nutshell, you are right, but also Michaela is right. And like
00:41:54.360
all stories, there are three sides to them, mine, yours, and the truth. In this case, the so-called
00:41:59.080
truth is more of a white lie for billing purposes. And what you and Michaela are saying is true.
00:42:06.100
A quick Google search will tell you that the main difference between addiction and dependence
00:42:10.240
is underlying behavior. In other words, if it's impulsive and self-destructive, then it must be an
00:42:15.660
addiction. But if your body needs to keep going, then it's dependency. Sounds like some great malarkey
00:42:20.400
there, huh? Well, from personal experience, as the daughter of an alcoholic, having boyfriends when
00:42:25.440
I was younger, that didn't have the best judgment, and later running a treatment center, no matter what
00:42:29.640
you call it, it is an addiction. Most of my patients at the treatment center were from up north, where
00:42:34.960
there's a lot of money, and they still call themselves addicts. So dependence is not really a euphemism
00:42:40.200
for an addiction. It's more of a category for billing purposes. Yes, like Michaela said, the doctors
00:42:45.640
are taught these differences, or else they will not get paid for treatment. Okay? Now, about Dr.
00:42:52.600
Peterson, regardless of what we call his benzo withdrawal, which, by the way, you're not going
00:42:56.140
to trade up Xanax for heroin because it's two different classes of drugs that do different
00:42:59.540
things, and that's why Michaela appeared annoyed. But I think most of us understood what you meant.
00:43:04.080
It is an addiction. Maybe not psychologically, but his body was definitely addicted to creating the
00:43:07.900
dependence. I think your point was that he had lost respect and followers related to the whole
00:43:11.820
situation because he wasn't living up to the ideal of being in control of every situation.
00:43:17.340
But that was just such a great email because it made things so much clearer to me because I knew,
00:43:22.020
obviously, because I was very invested in the transgender debate, that diagnostically things
00:43:27.560
had changed with this new manual, and I would agree with her. It was for the worst. Suddenly,
00:43:31.560
it was all about feelings. DSM-5 was all about feelings. You don't want to call somebody an addict.
00:43:35.900
You don't want to call somebody who has gender dysphoria mentally ill. So these things have
00:43:40.380
changed. We've updated it. And so Michaela was right to say that doctors learn this in school,
00:43:44.960
and it's the same way that the trans lobby is correct. I say doctors learn in school. This is
00:43:48.500
not a mental disorder. But I would say that all of those things are up for a debate, and I think
00:43:54.240
that we can agree that now your side, my side, and the truth that she kind of has this right and
00:43:59.080
that it is a billing difference, which I think gives me credence of a claim that it feels wealthy.
00:44:04.640
It's like the wealthy version of having an addiction where you get to say, well, no,
00:44:07.240
I don't have an addiction. And I think people were a bit reticent to accept that narrative.
00:44:12.400
Anyways, I thought that was really interesting. So I just wanted to share that with you guys
00:44:15.700
as we get into your other comments regarding episodes past. Let me find where they are coming
00:44:21.800
in. Okay. Regarding first topic, Red Note, Susie writes, China is based. The Real Man writes,
00:44:28.880
China promotes LGBTQ on TikTok, and they ban it on Red Note because they know that LGBTQ
00:44:34.880
probably cannot read this on YouTube. So I'm going to stop reading that comment.
00:44:39.820
Mark writes, USA wants to close TikTok. And for the same reasons, EU wants to close X and probably
00:44:45.440
Telegram. Yeah, it's time to join Red Note and VK. There you go. That's correct. The EU is trying
00:44:50.640
to come down on X. They don't want free speech. It's authoritarian while they point the finger at
00:44:55.180
you for saying that you're following an authoritarian country. They're doing the same thing.
00:44:59.300
Hugh White Girl writes, TikTok is mind melting and dumbing down our children worse than YouTube.
00:45:03.820
Actually, that's kind of going to be the upside because Red Note bans all of that stuff.
00:45:08.380
We're probably, maybe we're going to get math equations now. You know, maybe that's what
00:45:12.680
they're going to do because it's not for Americans. It's actually for Chinese people. So they probably
00:45:16.420
won't allow their population to have access to that sort of stuff. Regarding Rory Sykes, okay,
00:45:22.840
I have to be careful what I read here. Heidi writes, the mom is not credible. Why didn't she leave
00:45:27.420
sooner? Genevieve writes, she wouldn't leave him alone. John Posey writes, didn't have a wheelchair
00:45:33.800
or a dolly or a work cart or hell, a vehicle to drive up to him. Trixie Andrews writes, why move
00:45:41.020
from a country that has Medicare to one where the system sucks because she wanted fame and the son
00:45:47.260
was the only one that was on her quote unquote shows. Paused Clause writes, she seemed off in
00:45:53.480
that interview. Yes. The interview when I was watching, it was quite disturbing. It kind of,
00:45:58.580
I don't know. I just felt like I was watching a scary movie, like a scary movie about like a mom who had
00:46:03.400
a lot of control over her son. And again, that's just my opinion. That is not a fact. It's not me
00:46:07.820
anything, but something did seem a little bit off to me in that interview as well. Regarding Carrie
00:46:12.600
Underwood, people are supporting her. Rebellious Gadfly writes, Carrie is a liberal, but she knows
00:46:17.180
her audience is right wing country music. I can tell you she is not. She is definitively not a woke
00:46:23.440
liberal. I said she's a neighbor and that's just not true. Alex writes, Carrie's from Oklahoma. Of
00:46:28.820
course she's conservative. Yes. I think people just assign Hollywood and just think, oh, the person
00:46:33.960
must be liberal, but there's a lot more conservatives in Hollywood than you would think. They're all in
00:46:37.860
my DMs. Tracy Bradley writes, Jesus, take the wheel. These little lefties probably forgot about
00:46:42.280
that song. Certainly they did. And comments on Red Dye, Thunder Chicken writes, Russia bans GMO and
00:46:49.320
food. Think about that. Yeah. It's always a really evil countries that don't allow this stuff. And yet
00:46:53.520
America is so great. So free, no speech, have your red dye. Rachel Davidson writes, I didn't know if
00:46:58.360
the UK didn't allow lobbying. It makes me more and more upset. The more I learn about these things,
00:47:02.320
do you think that we could ever get rid of lobbying? Please say yes, LOL. I'm going to say no,
00:47:06.620
because when the congressmen go to DC to pretend they're doing things, they then just become a part of
00:47:11.000
the swamp. They don't want to leave. We should also have term limits because it would de-incentivize
00:47:15.120
them to stay there forever and see how they can fatten their pockets by accepting
00:47:19.200
gifts and favors from lobbyists. And so I hate to be pessimistic about it, but I would say no.
00:47:25.520
I would say definitely not. F1 Elitist writes, World War II was when the food went bad. We started
00:47:31.900
eating rationed canned food. I bet that canned food is better than what we were eating today. I'm not
00:47:36.380
even kidding. I bet it literally is better than what we're eating today because we're not even
00:47:40.060
eating food. I'd rather have food that's canned than not eat food at all. That's just completely
00:47:44.240
processed and your body can't break it down and it makes you sick. Julia White writes, UK and
00:47:49.080
every country does not allow these companies to put these chemical in their food supplies to kill
00:47:53.100
their people. It is only in America. The FDA is pretending they are doing something as Trump
00:47:57.460
takes office. Totally agree with you. And a couple of more random comments from Black Panther writes,
00:48:02.440
thank you for speaking out for Gaza when other journalists were afraid to. You are very welcome.
00:48:06.820
It has been my distinct honor to defend all of the innocent lives and the people to at least shine a
00:48:13.000
light on all the innocent lives that are being lost. And like I said, I'm very let down by people who I
00:48:18.160
once placed a lot of faith in the conservative movement for being too fearful or being too married
00:48:21.840
to money to take the humane perspective. Lastly, Benice writes, Candace, can you please have your
00:48:27.900
team enable comments on your Red Note account? We just did that. I hit a wrong button because I don't
00:48:32.660
speak Mandarin and I've enabled comments now. So when I do my next post on Red Note, you guys should be
00:48:37.220
able to see everything. By the way, in conclusion, I want to say a lot of you were writing that you were
00:48:41.620
having issues with sound with this episode. It wasn't on our end. So I was told to tell you guys
00:48:47.720
to refresh. I'm sorry that that happened. I hope that it was corrected quickly. I hope it wasn't
00:48:52.060
on our end. We'll find out after this. But you can find the episode in its entirety without the sound
00:48:57.720
issues on Spotify video as well. It should also be up on Rumble and hopefully YouTube resolves whatever
00:49:03.780
the conflict was. Anyways, you guys, we will see you tomorrow to support the show. You can head to
00:49:08.200
Locals, of course, keep our independence. I know you guys are excited about the Emmanuel Macron piece.
00:49:12.920
It's taking a lot of work. It is going to come out. You can go to candace.locals.com if you want
00:49:17.620
to support our work. Otherwise, we will see you guys tomorrow.
