00:00:33.240
reactivated her instagram account and she has apparently deleted all of the photos with blake
00:00:37.660
lively and ryan reynolds school teacher has just reached out to me plus there has been movement in
00:00:43.480
their court case so unfortunately i am so sorry i regret to inform you that i cannot be a political
00:00:49.060
reporter today okay i have to suspend political news you came here for politics again i apologize
00:00:54.480
i've already failed you but to the rest of us to the rest of us welcome back to candace
00:00:59.520
it's like yesterday i'm unpacking an entire ring in france i'm like going to war with the french
00:01:19.800
president trying to expose all the connections today i am back in hollywood similarly doing the
00:01:25.220
same thing for those of you who understand corruption is corruption evil is evil and you
00:01:29.840
have to focus on it and we also need to stop being so adhd where we're only into stories at the very
00:01:35.460
beginning of them and we never see them through like we need to bring back true investigative reporting
00:01:40.040
where people do not stop until the evil is rooted out and this story obviously it bears all of the
00:01:47.340
signs the telltale signs of true evil in which we all must root out okay so there's a lot going on
00:01:52.520
right now in justin baldoni blake lively world i obviously have the inside scoop because i've been
00:01:57.280
obsessively following this so let's start with colleen hoover okay that is the author of it ends with us
00:02:04.240
who text messages emails interviews all of all of the proof that is out there in the public
00:02:10.760
shows us that she positively adored justin baldoni she asked him herself initially he was just getting
00:02:18.200
involved with this project because of the book but then she asked him herself to play ryle in the movie
00:02:23.700
and things were great until blake lively right we actually had and i think we're still trying to pull
00:02:29.960
it in this old clip of her discussing how amazing justin baldoni was because he didn't just want to take
00:02:35.260
on this book project but it was important for him to understand uh the readers and the fans of the
00:02:40.600
book what it was that they adored about these characters because he didn't want to disappoint
00:02:44.420
them when he brought this to life uh chris were we able to pull that in we can we can show it later if
00:02:48.840
not okay perfect we'll have it soon and so when you watch this clip and you see how much work he put
00:02:56.000
into it and there are those clips available of him sitting down at these tables and speaking to all of
00:03:01.860
these fans you go what went wrong that suddenly colleen hoover didn't appear to be on his side
00:03:08.800
that she was content to walk the red carpet knowing assuming that she knew she obviously knew he wasn't
00:03:14.200
there that he was being put in the basement and she definitely knew that he was not a part of all of
00:03:19.740
these promos well i'm not cutting anybody any excuses but i now believe firmly having worked through
00:03:26.980
the preferred reynolds style of abuse that colleen hoover was similarly love bombed by the couple
00:03:33.880
i think that's what they do i think brandon sklenar colleen chenning tatum isabel farer everyone
00:03:40.080
was love bombed they isolate the person they want to destroy in this case it was justin baldoni
00:03:44.740
and then they are the exact opposite overwhelmingly amazing and kind and offering all kinds of a-list
00:03:51.560
goodies to the people um that are around the person that they're trying to target oh liz plank oh why
00:03:58.300
don't you be a part of this random documentary oh you know what is it that you want i we are just
00:04:03.700
such good people even all the way at the top we're good people we want to help you and of course there
00:04:08.740
is some dark irony here that colleen hoover wrote this book about abuse but seemed unable to pick up
00:04:15.020
the abuse that was happening right under her nose so she unwittingly i i hopefully i should say
00:04:20.600
unwittingly played along in this she allowed justin and his family to be put in that basement
00:04:26.040
and seemed open to the prospect as we showed in that old interview with her and blake of her getting
00:04:32.280
her movie rights back even though wayfarer and justin had already purchased the sequel rights which
00:04:37.940
i would love to be a part of the project you know blake said as long as colleen gets her her book
00:04:42.380
rights back and again i'm not providing any excuses for colleen hoover here but i do think that strategy
00:04:48.700
of love bombing would work because what they're thinking is all we have to do if you're blake and
00:04:52.860
ryan is imagine what these people want what would be the biggest help to them what are their biggest
00:04:57.680
dreams how do we help them realize those dreams so for brandon sklenar we know it's not confirmed
00:05:03.080
that they helped but we know that during this time period he signed with wme the biggest agency in the
00:05:08.080
world and he's not that big of an actor but that happened for him suddenly uh we know with colleen
00:05:13.760
hoover it was probably likely this pitch of you you should own your book rights you should own the
00:05:19.680
sequel rights we want to help you do that maybe they were going to take a piece of the production
00:05:23.520
company who knows we know with channing tatum it was gambit this role that he had dreamed up since he
00:05:28.760
was a child and i just went along with i think all of these people went along with it not perceiving
00:05:33.540
that there was evil afoot okay so just to basically recap here when blake filed her crd complaint on
00:05:41.580
december 20th colleen hoover made her support of blake lively clear to the public she stopped short
00:05:47.860
of throwing justin baldoni under the bus but her statement was definitively loud and clear especially
00:05:54.420
given the fact that she attended all of the promos and the screenings with blake and brandon leading up
00:05:59.260
to the film's release and it felt very much if you were watching everything like she basically they
00:06:05.400
established the cool kids table so to speak justin was nowhere they wanted him to feel alone he was not
00:06:10.460
allowed to sit with the cool kids okay so colleen posted this in response to that filing she wrote
00:06:18.640
blake lively you have been nothing but honest kind supportive and patient since the day we met thank
00:06:24.820
you for being exactly the human that you are never change never wilt okay so she didn't exactly throw
00:06:30.840
him under the bus but how is the public supposed to read that we're reading that you you support her
00:06:34.880
so to some degree you must believe her not that there's not a reason that you wouldn't believe her
00:06:39.200
but did you hear out justin by the way we just got that clip of her speaking about justin before all
00:06:44.680
of this so here is colleen hoover before she got blakeified take a listen i feel like readers know
00:06:53.180
what they you know they know what they want to see when it comes to a book that they're so passionate
00:06:57.860
about and i think a lot of times that can be overlooked but justin from the very beginning was
00:07:05.760
so adamant on including them because they're the ones you know who made the book see the success
00:07:11.720
it saw and so it's very important that you capture the things that they loved in the movie and they
00:07:19.180
involved you know had a contest and involved several readers in um getting to be there for the script
00:07:26.140
reading and they were very open and receptive to their feedback i know that their feedback actually
00:07:32.760
changed some of the things in the script for the better and i just thought that was brilliant i
00:07:36.960
watched justin on jane the virgin and his role of raphael and um you love that character he's so you
00:07:43.320
know he's so wonderful and justin in general like i'm just a fan of his you know on his instagram and his
00:07:49.520
tiktok pages and and it was kind of scary i was like no i don't want to see you get angry i don't want
00:07:56.460
to see you be mean but you know the whole time that i i've been thinking about this movie and who
00:08:02.880
could play the characters like honestly you need someone in the role of ryle who is it's going to
00:08:10.080
hurt when you see them not be who you wish they could be she adored justin she did i'm sorry she
00:08:18.820
absolutely adored justin we could show you clip after clip after clip obviously you can read the lawsuit
00:08:23.460
and see the emails and then like i said she got blake-ified reynolds-ified and suddenly she's in
00:08:29.660
love with blake in so much that she's allowing justin to be treated terribly that's the way the
00:08:33.800
public is reading this and their right to read it uh that way suddenly justin files his countersuit
00:08:39.880
and there's major backlash against her for having supported blake but not having said anything about
00:08:45.200
justin and really this happened because of mommy sleuths right like we pieced together what started to
00:08:51.280
look like sending your young son to school in elementary school only to discover that there's
00:08:56.960
a bunch of cool kids in the cafeteria that are mocking him and like throwing food at him you know
00:09:00.960
what i mean it's like throwing food at him calling him a loser and then you find out he's been eating
00:09:05.300
alone in the classroom with the teacher ever since it's just heartbreaking and you're going why why is
00:09:09.920
this happening to him and so the tables turned very quickly against colleen people expected her
00:09:14.220
to then now give a more informed answer a more informed response as to how she could have gone
00:09:19.820
along with what is appearing to be such obvious forms of bullying and so colleen deactivated her
00:09:26.520
instagram on january 21st and she is now just re-emerged and she's cleaned out her instagram page she has
00:09:32.380
without question deleted five instagram posts and the internet is certain that these were all of the
00:09:38.440
instagram posts of her and blake lively essentially not that she's posting of justin baldoni not that she
00:09:45.200
has moved to re-follow justin baldoni but it seems like she's taking at least a more neutral stance
00:09:50.900
on instagram so how do we know for a fact that she deleted five posts well in case you guys don't
00:09:56.180
know there is this amazing website called socialblade socialblade.com it provides you with accurate
00:10:01.920
statistics regarding followers and posts on any social media profile all you have to do is put the
00:10:07.820
handle in whether it's twitter whether it's instagram and it will shoot you back so you can actually see
00:10:13.060
how people are performing are they gaining followers are they losing followers are they following people
00:10:18.220
are they not following people it allows you to observe those trends i guess it's kind of stalkerish
00:10:23.380
but it makes sense for businesses of why they you want to look into these stats sometimes to see how you're
00:10:27.680
performing and so here is colleen's socialblade which shows you on that right hand side media for the last 30
00:10:33.980
days she's removed five of those posts that she had up and so that's that's incredibly interesting but we
00:10:41.700
should also by the way take a look at socialblade while we're there and note the consequence has
00:10:47.640
been terrible for blake and ryan in terms of people following them look at these metrics of their
00:10:54.200
followers this is blake lively okay that tells us there at the bottom that over the last 30 days
00:10:59.640
she has lost 397 000 subscribers okay that is not a small amount if you similarly go over to ryan
00:11:09.160
reynolds he's lost almost the same amount a thousand more than her 398 000 subscribers this is
00:11:16.560
the internet answering and telling you what they think about the situation especially when you weigh it
00:11:21.400
against justin baldoni look at his statistics over the last 30 days he has received 206 you could
00:11:28.020
almost say 207 000 additional followers so in the court of public opinion they've lost okay so you can ask
00:11:38.080
the question why did colleen delete these posts well some people are speculating well she's read
00:11:42.460
through things and now she's on justin baldoni's side i don't feel that way because she hasn't made
00:11:46.880
a strong enough statement she has not made a statement in his favor she should make a statement
00:11:50.660
in his favor because the proof is overwhelming and she has i guess you could say established her brand as
00:11:56.340
someone who is anti-abuse i think it's really important to to now stake a horse in this race and say
00:12:02.060
i obviously was completely manipulated and maybe rightfully manipulated and we could agree and say
00:12:08.420
okay well if lake came to her after love bombing her and said i've been abused maybe colleen actually
00:12:13.220
did just legitimately believe her and did something that wasn't being motivated by anything other than
00:12:18.440
belief right but she's not doing more than that and so i don't like i said this feels a little bit
00:12:24.100
like a cop-out and i think it's more likely that what she's doing here is trying to stay out of it this
00:12:29.120
is the taylor swift movement this is likely a legal strategy i don't want to be involved in this case
00:12:33.800
impossible she's already been named um you know not as a defendant or as a plaintiff but rather
00:12:39.260
just named in the evidence of of justin baldoni showing the picture of how things were how the
00:12:44.440
movie came about and so without question she's going to be called to take the stand and to speak
00:12:48.700
about justin's behavior but i think she doesn't want to be pulled in uh beyond that i really do believe
00:12:55.000
that if you are her pr team if you're her agents if you are her lawyer um you are saying to her you
00:13:01.820
need to be neutral you need to stay out of this thing this is not good for you it's not good for
00:13:06.720
your future which is going to get ugly very fast and it has the ability to ricochet and to harm you as
00:13:13.140
well and i wanted to note this by the way in terms of speaking about that legal strategy we have to go
00:13:19.320
back to february 3rd remember that was when they had the first hearing before judge lehman in new
00:13:25.960
york the first time the lawyers for all of the parties to the case were meeting and there were
00:13:30.900
some very important things that were brought up so i'm going to show you this portion of the
00:13:36.380
transcript from that court hearing um because it's it's very relevant to what might be taking place
00:13:42.340
here i got a tiktok tip wow that was amazing to say i want to say it again i got a tiktok tip
00:13:47.140
um and had a conversation with somebody who runs the be better company you guys might know him marcos
00:13:53.680
we're going to get to him uh in an email that he sent me but so in the lead up to this moment of
00:13:58.600
the transcript that i'm going to show you that february 3rd showdown this was obviously when
00:14:02.460
blake lively's lawyers wanted to have brian friedman gagged that didn't happen they kind of told him he
00:14:07.660
needed to chill he hasn't really chilled by the way he's still doing interviews with tmz but essentially
00:14:13.300
he can't do anything that might harm the jury pool is what they said to him but there was an
00:14:17.820
interesting back and forth between blake lively's lawyers so leading up to this moment just so you're
00:14:22.900
not completely lost uh they were discussing whether or not to consolidate or deconsolidate the cases
00:14:27.820
with the new york times and also discussing the recent amendment that the wayfarer legal team had
00:14:35.000
filed which essentially they filed that amendment included the new york times little tidbits and like the
00:14:41.980
data from the new york times and also were accusing uh blake lively and ryan reynolds of promissory
00:14:48.500
fraud so it wasn't like a major amendment but it was a you know significant amendment that they would
00:14:53.120
need time to respond to so this is what happened in the courtroom wilkie farr said and by the way this
00:14:58.480
is um wilkie farr are blake lively's lawyers um if you want to read along here they said our plan at
00:15:05.040
docket 49 is no longer feasible counsel for wayfarer did not tell us that they planned to file an amended
00:15:10.720
complaint including a 168 compendium which is essentially all those text messages there is
00:15:17.860
authority to deconsolidate the cases the times may have its own views we'd like to confer given that
00:15:24.780
the wayfarer parties added a new defendant we have contemplated amending our own complaint
00:15:30.660
we have two weeks to do it we think we can still make the trial date of march 9th 2026 okay so
00:15:38.360
essentially they're just saying they're like they amended and like we may be amending as well
00:15:43.240
to add some new parties so judge lehman asks that for clarification judge lehman says
00:15:47.320
you are suggesting you'll add new parties by next friday february 14th how quickly would you serve them
00:15:54.380
okay so he's like you're this is due on february 14th you're saying you can make this happen on
00:15:59.220
february 14th and wilkie farr responds and says we'll ask them meaning the parties that they're
00:16:06.120
planning to add to this case to accept service if they say no will immediately start trying to serve
00:16:13.620
them it's a very interesting sentence because they're basically saying we're going to just ask
00:16:18.520
some plaintiff to join this willingly so we're not going to have to worry about delivery of service
00:16:23.580
we'll just say we're sending the person now you're going to receive this and now you're a plaintiff to
00:16:28.100
this case formally but if they say no which suggests that like they don't really know whether this is
00:16:33.760
going to be a receptive um pardon i'm saying plaintiff plaintiff yeah a plaintiff to this case
00:16:38.560
then we'll start trying to serve them essentially we're just going to like force them into this
00:16:43.100
okay then he goes on and wilkie farr's attorneys say there's one set of lawyers on the other side
00:16:48.620
there will be numerous depositions including on the false light claims discovery will involve issues
00:16:54.200
typical in sexual harassment cases and communications by defendants and their agents and the media
00:16:59.960
including people who may have been paid i don't know why they say that no one's been paid truly we
00:17:04.380
all just don't like what blake lively and ryan reynolds have done they conclude by saying this
00:17:09.540
case involves a number of high profile individuals including third parties we intend to seek a
00:17:14.940
protective order there has been a significant amount of leaking to the media we want to list all the
00:17:20.320
parties from the beginning so this was actually a very major thing to say that there's some party
00:17:25.340
of the suit that has not been named yet and we should have focused more on that language because
00:17:29.800
what on earth are they talking about who who's missing who is who's joining in as a potential
00:17:36.080
willing plaintiff to this case and we have an answer as i said we had a tiktoker who had some tea we had
00:17:44.480
some tiktok tea on this he sent me an email yesterday and uh he's been going viral himself covering
00:17:51.500
the suit so i did my thing you know i went through his tiktok and figured out everything about him
00:17:56.320
and his great parent great great great great great grandparents to check him out uh and there's an
00:18:01.140
amazing fact here in that this tiktoker marcos who runs the be better company actually was team
00:18:08.020
blake lively when this all began right so this is not somebody that like me was like instantly anti
00:18:14.280
me too he was firmly on the other side he very much is like i believe that we should listen to him
00:18:19.200
when they filed these complaints he went through everything thought that like what blake lively had
00:18:23.220
been through was horrific and then did this crazy thing called reading justin baldoni's countersuit
00:18:31.040
and was like listen i i know this is going to sound crazy but everything that i'm reading here points
00:18:37.200
to the fact that blake lively manipulated her audiences and lied to her audiences and like i'm kind of
00:18:43.820
shocked as someone who fully believed her and he took he did he's basically as psychotic as
00:18:49.140
me like he's like a tiktok with the receipts read every single line of it like i did and he put in
00:18:55.620
part this like nine part series which is amazing work done doing a deep dive on what exactly was in
00:19:03.400
justin baldoni's case that made him turn and realize that blake lively was not telling the truth and that
00:19:09.120
it was going to be a very steep climb for them to explain why they misrepresented so many things in
00:19:15.180
their initial filing so he was team blake lively that's very important to understand he was not
00:19:18.780
biased against her in any way and so what happened and i can't tell you who the person was but he got
00:19:25.540
a very strong tip from somebody regarding jenny slate potentially being brought into the suit
00:19:35.220
and what ended up happening was after he discussed this tip and like i said we have ways of knowing if
00:19:40.440
this is legit if it's coming from you know somebody close to the person around he confirmed like this
00:19:45.920
is a legit tip to talk about he said allegedly when he wrote did put up this video on tiktok and the
00:19:52.400
video ends up getting taken down i'll tell you more about that in a second but here is the tip
00:19:57.840
that uh the be better companies marcos got regarding jenny slate take a listen and now for the moment
00:20:05.200
you've all been waiting for so my source has told me that lively's legal team is allegedly attempting
00:20:11.460
to amend their filing and add jenny slate as a plaintiff to the lawsuit but jenny slate allegedly
00:20:18.960
does not want to be involved in this mess at all and if she rejects their offer to be made an actual
00:20:24.800
plaintiff in the case which seems likely they're likely going to subpoena her anyway and just include
00:20:29.960
her testimony or her as evidence because she allegedly has had some very bad experiences
00:20:35.280
with justin baldoni in regard to harassment or being made to feel uncomfortable on set i think
00:20:40.800
at this point lively's team very strongly believes that if they're able to add more women officially
00:20:45.700
to the lawsuit that the claims will look more legitimate but at this point i don't think jenny
00:20:50.120
slate or anyone else on the cast really wants to jump aboard the plantation khaleesi's yacht that
00:20:55.920
seems to be sinking rather quickly plantation khaleesi is quite the name nickname for blake lively
00:21:02.880
so he posts this video and then it gets taken down from tiktok on february 6th right and he told me
00:21:09.080
that when he looked into why it got taken down essentially they received some sort of a legal
00:21:13.620
threat in the background that like they could go after them for something defamatory in the video so
00:21:18.300
social media companies are not here to investigate they're not here to be judges and lawyers
00:21:22.300
but having a lawyer email you on behalf of a client and if it's an a-list client saying like
00:21:27.680
we're gonna come after you tiktok for allowing this defamation to exist on the platform they're
00:21:33.580
not gonna take a risk they're not gonna be like i'm gonna go with marcos right i'm gonna be like
00:21:37.260
listen this person seems like they have a lot of money they got a lot of power i'm just gonna take
00:21:40.860
this tiktok video down and that's what happened and he was infuriated about this and he essentially
00:21:46.240
started tagging brian friedman's team and saying like hey if you want like something that you should
00:21:52.460
be looking into and potentially this could happen you should be subpoenaing tiktok because if her
00:21:57.480
entire argument is that justin baldoni and the wayfarer team manipulated the press and she's doing
00:22:02.840
the exact same thing right now meaning she's upset about tiktokers coming out with information or
00:22:08.560
believing that tiktokers are leaking information well then that kind of defeats her own argument and so
00:22:13.700
they some i mean not they marcos somehow was able to get this video reinstated by basically saying a
00:22:19.380
tiktok this is ridiculous this is free speech he said allegedly he didn't say like this is confirmed
00:22:24.160
he said exactly how he heard it as a source this is what like journalism is called this is what you do
00:22:28.720
when you report you get information you give it to the public and you give them exactly how you receive
00:22:33.680
that information which is like this is allegedly but it's a strong source so we should probably by the
00:22:39.220
way that's a major major major clue here and everything that i'm seeing indicates that he's
00:22:45.660
right so that language in that first hearing we might add a plaintiff we're going to ask them to
00:22:50.540
accept service but if not then we'll just subpoena it's like okay so is the plaintiff willing to do this
00:22:55.360
or do you feel like you can get this person to join this suit or is this person fighting you we don't
00:23:01.040
know so that's on february 6th we should talk about jenny slate in general or why i just haven't even
00:23:06.380
been speaking about jenny slate like genuinely i didn't mention her she played some role in the
00:23:11.380
movie and she instantly when blake lively filed her complaint did not mince words she didn't try to
00:23:19.980
make it seem like she wasn't picking a side she strongly picked blake lively's side this was a
00:23:24.820
statement she released she said as blake lively's castmate and friend i voice my support as she takes
00:23:31.140
action against those reported to have planned and carried out an attack on her reputation
00:23:35.900
blake is a leader loyal friend and a trusted source of emotional support for me and so many
00:23:41.200
who know and love her what has been revealed about the attack on blake is terribly dark disturbing and
00:23:46.500
wholly threatening she added i commend my friend i admire her bravery and i stand by her side okay
00:23:53.520
so the reason why i kind of ignored jenny slate in all this is because like i just get vibes from
00:23:57.160
people and i just felt like that statement was just very theater kid it was way too much and it's like
00:24:01.660
i don't really need to care about this there's something about her that just registered to me
00:24:06.060
and i don't say this in like a derogatory way but just like doing too much and i could imagine very
00:24:11.680
simply that she got wrapped into this like blake lively spell of just like i'm gonna be the most
00:24:16.060
amazing person the fact that she like called like an emotional support puppy like one of these people
00:24:20.080
on like on a plane was like i can't fly without my puppy you know i just was like it's too much it's
00:24:24.580
too much too fast and i just didn't think it was relevant to looking into everything but i will say
00:24:29.840
it is likely that similarly she was under this spell of the reynolds family and she wanted to feel like
00:24:38.720
the a-list love like she just wanted to hang out with them one degree closer to taylor swift who knows
00:24:43.920
maybe taylor swift even sprinkled a little glitter on her at a concert we don't know what the connection
00:24:48.940
is there but she probably believed blake lively and blake lively has proven ryan reynolds has proven
00:24:56.320
to be actually the smartest in the room and was likely manipulating her and it is likely this is
00:25:01.200
my guess that blake and ryan have messages with her because if she's that dramatic in a release
00:25:07.080
statement she probably was even more dramatic in like just being the friend that supports your friend
00:25:12.560
even when you know you're lying like women lie to each other like we have to be honest about this
00:25:16.880
this kind of gets into when i was going over like the fat acceptance movement and you would see like
00:25:22.000
pictures of people like lena dunham wearing a bathing suit and like a bunch of women in the
00:25:26.380
comments being like you look amazing and it's like okay why are we doing that because we want to make
00:25:31.220
each other feel good that's like what women do we just want to be the emotional support to your friend
00:25:36.900
like you know maybe her outfit doesn't look great and she's like how do i look like you look so hot
00:25:42.520
you know you look amazing it's just this weird thing that women do i don't know why but we lie
00:25:47.360
to each other on the internet i see it all the time i want to call it out i want to be like the internet
00:25:51.040
police and be like you know that's not true stop supporting your friends when they're doing bad or
00:25:55.260
harmful things i think jenny slate again full opinion full speculation was that girl in the room
00:26:00.960
who just wanted to like support whatever blake was saying and she probably texted her and was like
00:26:05.160
me too you know i felt weird and creepy too or whatever so blake and ryan are all out of cards and
00:26:10.660
they're they've got nothing to prove this right now and they're like could we get jenny slate the
00:26:15.820
friend that nodded her head and said yes to everything to us to join this lawsuit to give
00:26:20.100
it just a little bit more of a punch like no it was two of us two of us that felt that we were
00:26:25.220
harassed on set sexually like you know justin bosoni was just so into jenny slate too so into me
00:26:31.440
also he wasn't into me because i'm also accusing him of treating me fat but don't worry about how those two
00:26:36.380
things cancel each other out in this lawsuit but like we have text messages with jenny slate and i
00:26:41.600
do think she was just being the raw raw raw friend she just gives me that vibe so it's interesting it's
00:26:46.820
very interesting to to consider her as a potential piece of this again he's saying allegedly i know
00:26:52.040
nothing of this i was not contacted by um anybody in potentially in jenny slate's orbit but we can
00:27:00.040
begin to look at what just happened okay so on february 10th two days ago blake lively's team
00:27:08.280
having just told them on february 3rd like we're going to add new people to we're going to amend
00:27:12.800
um our complaint we're going to add some new plaintiffs and maybe try to serve them
00:27:16.680
then filed two days ago for an extension they're like actually we're not going to be able to make
00:27:21.680
that amendment dates due date of february 14th so i'm showing you what they filed and and then it's
00:27:28.780
i'm just going to take you to the relevant point uh points uh their lawyer wrote to dear judge
00:27:33.460
lehman february 14th 2025 is the original default deadline for miss lively to file her amended complaint
00:27:41.120
as a matter of course in relation to responsive pleadings of wayfarer studios llc then they go on
00:27:48.640
to say miss lively respectfully submits that an extension for filing an amended complaint
00:27:53.460
as a matter of course to march 5th 2025 is warranted so essentially this is due february 14th we're
00:27:59.980
asking you to extend until march 5th and then the reason she lists here for why she needs that
00:28:06.220
extension is bizarre she says the modest extension will allow for miss lively to address the extensive
00:28:12.600
new facts and claims that issue in this litigation such an extension is also warranted given that after
00:28:18.280
counsel for miss lively informed the court on february 3rd that she intended to amend her complaint
00:28:24.020
to additional parties and claims one of those intended parties jed wallace along with his company street
00:28:30.340
relations filed an anticipatory and meritless 10 page complaint in the federal district court in texas
00:28:37.000
regarding issues that substantially overlap with the issues in this litigation the additional time
00:28:43.340
requested will allow miss lively to address properly the procedural issues arising from this unmeritorious
00:28:49.700
lawsuit as well so she's saying remember we talked about jed who she came after in her crd filing well jed
00:28:56.320
and then she filed had to file that in texas well jed responded similarly to brian friedman responding on
00:29:02.740
behalf of wayfarer but this is a totally separate suit that's happening in texas and she's trying to
00:29:07.560
justify an extension because he filed his response which she would have had to do to her lawsuit that
00:29:15.160
makes entirely no sense anyways because brian friedman is brian friedman he hits them back pretty hard in
00:29:23.340
his response um he writes back on behalf of wayfarer and says notwithstanding the lively party's inexplicable
00:29:31.300
refusal to consent to a similar extension requested by the wayfarer parties in the throes of the los
00:29:37.320
angeles wildfires shade the wayfarer parties have no objection to the extension sought by the lively
00:29:43.460
party so they're like whatever take your extension we don't even care but if you do take your extension
00:29:47.080
then we're asking for an extension beyond that um essentially to allow us to respond there too on
00:29:53.520
april 16th but then he hits her heart on this weird attempt to lie to the judge about jed wallace and
00:30:00.100
he says unfortunately the lively party's letter goes further than a simple request for an extension of time
00:30:05.560
leveling unnecessary and baseless attacks on non-party jed wallace and the litigation pending
00:30:12.760
against miss lively in the usdc for the western district of texas what lively parties conspicuously
00:30:19.540
failed to mention is that the now pending litigation in texas was precipitated by miss lively who initiated
00:30:26.320
legal action against mr wallace in texas state court on january 21st approximately two weeks before he
00:30:33.900
filed his federal lawsuit in response while the lively parties now claim that mr wallace's texas
00:30:39.560
actions suffer from serious issues with respect to jurisdiction in miss lively's verified position
00:30:46.420
uh petition seeking a pre-suit deposition of mr wallace miss lively acknowledges that the jurisdiction
00:30:52.540
in texas is proper proper given mr wallace's domicile so he's like i have no idea why she's lying to the
00:30:59.900
court and then he attaches her initial petition in texas which is just so embarrassing right it's the
00:31:07.740
same tactic that they're doing over and over again of trying to manipulate the courts to get what they
00:31:13.100
want making that people are not going to keep receipts like hi have you met brian friedman yet
00:31:17.880
i know i haven't but i wouldn't try this game i wouldn't try trying to manipulate judge lehman
00:31:22.220
and trying to tell him i need this extension because this guy jed this crazy thing and filed somewhere
00:31:27.420
where he doesn't have jurisdiction as if brian friedman is not going to pull up and be like
00:31:31.380
actually you established his jurisdiction you filed first in texas and he's replying and by the way
00:31:36.800
he's not a party to our case here in new york that's what brian friedman did he's just a savage brian
00:31:41.880
friedman is actually my spirit animal anyways judge lehman responds to this order and he slaps down he just
00:31:50.040
slaps her down i don't know what else to say probably because he doesn't like probably doesn't take
00:31:53.460
kind to just being manipulated you know you should have been like i want an extension because i don't
00:31:57.140
have any proof i need to potentially allegedly kind of try to get someone to join this suit please
00:32:04.680
colleen hoover didn't you see something did you see him look at my butt i don't know could you i don't
00:32:09.280
know could somebody please just join in maybe maybe young lily bloom elizabeth farah did you see
00:32:13.980
something that you didn't like like she's she's trying they're essentially trying to lobby someone
00:32:18.040
to give this thing some teeth and so this is the judge's order he comes back and he says order
00:32:24.240
granting in part and denying in part the letter motion for the extension of time to file he added
00:32:29.540
one day so supposed to be february 14th that's a friday that the uh their amended filing was due he
00:32:35.580
bumped to february 17th which is a monday which is also a holiday so i think it's still february 14th i
00:32:40.840
don't know but um which would be over the weekend which that would be the first monday and so yeah he
00:32:46.880
he gives an answer the lively parties have not offered good cause for any further extension
00:32:51.640
and so maybe you just shouldn't have lied about why you needed the extension because that's not a
00:32:54.960
good cause to talk about what's happening in texas that has nothing to do with this case
00:32:58.040
so completely shut down all right guys i gotta get to talking to you about um ryan reynolds teacher

00:35:25.700
get into psychology just i love psychology i think that's also what has been so compelling about this
00:35:31.460
case for so many women is that it feels like we are watching id tv there's something about it why are
00:35:36.300
women drawn to criminal shows where we get to learn things it's because we're constantly thinking about
00:35:41.900
our safety and there's something about this story that kind of violates our safety in a way of feeling
00:35:47.520
like people were nice and then realizing that they were totally behaving like psychopaths
00:35:51.720
and were doing something uh so far taking it so far as ryan reynolds did so anyways we are learning
00:35:59.560
some new things about blake and ryan because the internet just keeps on digging and just keeps on
00:36:04.380
finding stuff and there was an interview that many of you tagged me in that resurfaced a couple of days
00:36:08.820
ago and it's blake lively speaking at the forbes women women's summit and this is from 2022 and she's
00:36:17.060
just sort of casually discussing how you know she lies and she takes over movies take a listen
00:36:23.520
i would show up on a set i knew that they just wanted me to show up and look cute and stand on
00:36:29.340
a little pink sticker where i'm supposed to go and say what i'm supposed to say but i also knew that
00:36:33.920
like that wasn't fulfilling for me that i wanted to be a part of the storytelling that i wanted to be a
00:36:38.220
part of the narrative whether that be in the writing and the costume design and creating the character
00:36:42.820
and sometimes i had directors or producers or writers who would welcome that and invite that
00:36:48.060
once they saw that i was able to offer that and sometimes i would have people who really resented
00:36:52.860
that because they were like we just hired you to be an actor yet when i went in the meetings i would
00:36:57.880
just seem like i'm just there to be the actor and ready to get the gig i wouldn't reveal that i
00:37:03.140
actually need to have authorship in order to feel fulfilled so i think that for them sometimes that
00:37:07.680
might have felt like a rug pull because you're like you're trying to assert yourself into something
00:37:13.400
that we didn't hire you to do um and so it was like it was a really strange position to be in because
00:37:19.860
i felt like i want to just like be an actor like i want to you know i want to i want to have more
00:37:25.440
authorship yeah i bet it did feel like a bit of a rug pull uh pull i i would say this um blake lively i
00:37:34.260
almost appreciate her because she doesn't know she's insane like she doesn't know how insane that
00:37:39.200
sounds and whoever was sitting across from her i had to nod and go along with this and you're going
00:37:43.640
wait what are you're basically saying you're a liar you misrepresent who you are maybe that has
00:37:48.780
something to do with why you're now being sued for promissory fraud because you're admitting that you
00:37:52.460
go in there and you're like yeah i'd like to be an actor and then you take over everything i mean
00:37:56.540
imagine calling taking this out of the context of celebrities and you like call a plumber to come fix your
00:38:01.960
toilet and he's in there and he's like hey i'm actually going to reorganize your closet and you're
00:38:06.380
like no actually i'm good could you just fix the toilet and he's like no i'm here to be your dad i
00:38:10.900
want to be your dad now you're like no i don't i don't want you to be my dad i want you to fix the
00:38:13.920
toilet that's what i hired you for it's a job that i hired you for and he's like where's your baby i
00:38:17.780
want to hold the baby and burp the baby and you're like i don't need you to burp my baby you're not my
00:38:21.760
husband well i can be more i can be more than your plumber i can be your husband and you're going what's
00:38:26.460
going on why do i feel like i need to call the police why do i feel like i need to call
00:38:30.240
Brian Friedman. This is insane. What are you talking about? She genuinely is not aware of
00:38:36.380
how insane she sounds. And if you're wondering, like, hey, Blake, if you if you want to be that
00:38:42.000
person, if you want to be a director or if you want to be the writer, why don't you just go be
00:38:47.780
that? You're allowed to be a director. You're allowed to be a writer. Just write. Well, actually,
00:38:52.860
there's an answer to that. She had an interview, a written interview with Vogue that was released
00:38:58.000
in August of 2024. And here's what she said. OK, by the way, it's amazing that she still is able to be
00:39:03.820
a bit bratty in this email when somebody asks her a totally basic question about her baking because
00:39:08.220
she always speaks about her baking and it's all over her Instagram. But here's what she said to
00:39:12.560
the interview her. The interviewer writes, I ask if she writes. Blake tilts her head, suddenly curious.
00:39:17.780
She plays with the big blue ring on her finger. My husband did an interview where they asked,
00:39:23.120
what's something surprising that people don't know about your wife? And he said, it's that she's a
00:39:27.040
writer. She writes on every movie she works on. And the interviewer said, and the baking and the
00:39:32.900
baking, right? She's a great baker. It was just such an interesting moment. I don't know if it's
00:39:37.100
a female thing or not, but they always want to talk about the baking. And then the writer said,
00:39:41.680
I'm sorry I asked to bake together. I say a little abashed. I'm a little I'm a terrible baker.
00:39:46.240
And then she says, why did you ask about the writing? I say the question occurred to me the night
00:39:52.120
before. I had read about all of her creative endeavors and something that restlessness of something
00:39:56.840
about that restlessness felt familiar. Later, Feig will confirm that she worked to bring about her
00:40:01.860
vision for a character. She did work on her dialogue to make that happen, he will say admiringly,
00:40:07.320
and it just brought everything to life. I asked Lively if she would ever write something from
00:40:11.500
scratch. She considers this. She says, quote, a blank page is not nearly as exciting to me as starting
00:40:17.880
with the script and finding something people have overlooked, saying, no, no, no, there's something here.
00:40:22.760
To me, it's a treasure hunt. And so when I can see the treasure, then I get to be an archaeologist.
00:40:27.100
I get to excavate. I get to carve it out and find this thing and show people the value in it.
00:40:32.420
That, to me, is what I want to, can't say that last word, what I love. Okay. So she's essentially
00:40:39.300
saying, I like to just take over people's work. And that's insane. And that's crazy. And this is a
00:40:44.060
reason why I think in the future, people are just not going to work with her because it's starting to
00:40:47.060
add up. People are realizing that this is a pathology. And regarding Ryan Reynolds, I have
00:40:52.620
received, just to be clear, a ton of emails and tips about him, people that worked as his stunt
00:40:56.760
double, people that worked as Blake Lively's stunt double. And I'm trying to bring to the public what
00:41:01.940
I think is relevant in terms of this case. And I don't share everything because sometimes I think
00:41:06.320
it's just unfair. Like if somebody says, oh, I dated him 20 years ago, you know, he was majorly into
00:41:10.340
drugs. I've gotten these sorts of emails. I'm like, okay, well, 20 years ago, how old was he? 28. Is that
00:41:14.700
really relevant? Whatever. The saying that he smoked pot, by the way, to be clear there.
00:41:19.000
These sorts of things don't seem relevant to me. But this one I thought was relevant. And I'm going
00:41:22.680
to tell you why. It's because it is somebody that is sharing an experience from his childhood.
00:41:27.320
It is also somebody who has to be at least 70 years old in order to have been the drama teacher,
00:41:34.200
assuming a teacher is going to be about 20 years old if they're literally just starting their career
00:41:39.100
and had Ryan Reynolds in his class and felt the need to reach out.
00:41:43.720
And I think Ryan Reynolds' childhood is actually relevant because Ryan Reynolds himself oddly
00:41:49.380
interjected his childhood traumas into this entire thing. Remember in Deadpool, he's speaking about,
00:41:56.040
oh, like, I got to address my childhood traumas, like making fun of Justin Baldoni. But then there
00:42:01.100
was that really weird promo with his mom for It Ends With Us. And they started speaking about his
00:42:06.380
relationship with his dad and how he had unresolved issues with his dad. So let's take a listen to what he
00:42:13.580
says. I don't feel very comfortable asking this question. Nope. I got it. I'll get it. Here. I can
00:42:19.280
do that. You're not going to read it. I will then. Okay. Thank you. That's the one. It says Ryan would
00:42:24.860
love to have a new dad to have a catch. And I think he could really use a man in his life. Hugh is no
00:42:32.840
spring chicken anymore. Blink once for yes, or blink once for I'd love to be your new dad. He blinked. He blinked.
00:42:43.700
Is this hell? No, it's Iowa. That's from Field of Dreams. It's one of Ryan's favorite movies because he and his
00:42:51.700
late father had so much unresolved sadness. But pride got in the way and neither of them were able to find closure.
00:42:58.140
Ryan thinks Field of Dreams is a true story because he's on meth and that drug is super scary.
00:43:06.060
Mrs. Reynolds. Call me Blake. Oh, I could blow your mind, dog.
00:43:13.560
Okay. So it was very weird. And like I told you in past interviews, Ryan has spoken about this
00:43:18.400
like relationship with his father. And that's the reason why he's so insane and controlling. He's
00:43:23.600
spoken about how it made him a bit of a control freak because his dad used to yell or whatever.
00:43:27.780
Seems very clear if that's a circumstance Ryan is kind of becoming maybe taking on some elements of
00:43:31.520
his father. But this message arrived in my box and it's about his first drama teacher from when he was
00:43:37.060
13 years old. And I think it's interesting to share. And again, this is going to be a much older
00:43:41.280
person. I think that's relevant because there are two people who always tell the truth.
00:43:45.280
And that's senior citizens and toddlers. They just get to a place where they just constantly are
00:43:49.840
telling you the truth about everything and they don't care what anybody has to think about it or say
00:43:53.040
about it. And so this individual wrote this. I kind of I'm cutting off the person's name,
00:43:58.520
obviously, because I'm afraid Ryan Reynolds will go after him. It came in from Alberta, Canada.
00:44:03.680
He said, it may be an odd thing. I was his first acting teacher. True. Summer 1989. He was 12.
00:44:10.640
His parents had gone on a vacation. So grandparents he was left with had him for three weeks, as I recall.
00:44:16.820
After a week, they enrolled him in my classes, essentially, as I found out because they needed a break
00:44:21.500
from him. Then the first three days I had had enough. The other kids had had enough and their
00:44:26.000
parents were complaining because everything was about him. Self-centered, loud, sneaky, obnoxious,
00:44:32.320
narcissistic, unkind and deceitful. I spoke to the grandparents that he needed to abide by the
00:44:37.860
expectations or I'd punt him and give them a refund. The next day, same old. So I kicked him out.
00:44:44.420
Two days back with the grandparents, they begged me to take him back. So I said on a couple of
00:44:49.320
conditions, I drew up a, quote unquote, contract, essentially reiterating the initial expectations,
00:44:55.760
but adding so behavioral things I had noticed, some behavioral things I noticed that needed to
00:45:00.240
be addressed. And he had to write an apology letter to the class and either read to the class
00:45:05.100
or memorize it and present it to the class like a script. And if the other students said no, then no,
00:45:11.520
it would be. But I did hold the final say. I work with kids in mental health. I have for decades.
00:45:16.740
This was nothing new to me. So he returned. The kids were a bit shocked, but he was on probation.
00:45:21.640
And then he was asked, Ryan, is there something that you'd like to say to other students here?
00:45:25.440
Yes, if I may. He got up, audience of 15 plus kids, paper in hand. He glanced down at it,
00:45:31.500
started to read it, then stuttered, cleared his throat, swallowed, then started without the paper.
00:45:36.940
Tears started to well in his eyes. I'm so sorry that I, heavy breathing, selfishly stole time from you all
00:45:44.800
as Mr. David was trying to teach us all about acting and I made it about me. And I just want
00:45:50.280
to say that I will do my best to listen and we'll try really hard not to interrupt. Tears now. And
00:45:55.720
it's just that nobody really listens to me. So sniff, I will try, try, try my best to be better.
00:46:01.820
Sorry, full tears. The kids were on their feet over to give him a hug, et cetera. Can he come back to
00:46:07.120
our class, please? So I said, yes. A few minutes later, he passes by me and under his breath utters,
00:46:12.620
I was acting. It's very like scary. I don't know. So I stopped him from walking away and I whispered,
00:46:20.540
I know. I guess he had learned something, but there was a streak in him. I wouldn't trust him.
00:46:25.140
I didn't know if it was evil, insecurity, a ton, fear, psychopathy, arrogance, or just a sociopath,
00:46:30.900
but he was 12. He never says he took an acting course. He had turned, he turned 13 in October.
00:46:35.900
He had the it factor. I think I still have his first headshot in a box somewhere with a hundred other
00:46:40.540
kids that I taught. I just felt like I should share that. I don't know. That one, for some reason,
00:46:45.320
to me, first off, hits the fact that like there is some issues in his background or whatever,
00:46:50.320
which he has admitted in these weird skits. But the other thing was just like the ability to switch
00:46:54.660
on and to have a teacher who has a background in mental health, which I was able to confirm,
00:47:00.860
believing that there was some sort of a pathology that was driving that and that he's had that for a
00:47:04.820
very long time. Interesting enough to share weird. And I just feel like that's creepy to be like
00:47:11.820
crying in front of a class and turn a teacher and be like, I was acting. Everything that you just saw
00:47:16.380
was not real. It's just giving serial killer dressed as an actor. You know, I'm not saying
00:47:21.700
Ryan's a serial killer. I'm just saying like if he wasn't an actor, where would Ryan be? That's all
00:47:25.800
I'm saying. So anyways, that is enough about that. Also, we have A Simple Favor, which is coming up soon,
00:47:33.000
coming out. That is the sequel, A Simple Favor 2, featuring Anna Kendrick. There's a ton riding on
00:47:39.140
that. You know, the comments, people are enraged that this project is going forward. Poor Anna
00:47:45.000
Kendrick has nothing to do with anything. But it's going to be interesting to see what happens with
00:47:49.420
that movie when it is released. I'm going to read, just throw it to one more of our sponsors before
00:47:54.680
I get into your comments and into your questions. And that sponsor is Pure Talk because this country
00:47:59.160
was founded on freedom. Freedom from a country that forced us to buy overpriced tea, then try
00:48:03.960
blockading us when we dumped their tea into the ocean. How did that work out? Well, I'll tell you,
00:48:07.760
I married an Englishman and now I drink tea every night, so I'm not sure how it worked out. But
00:48:11.060
anyways, it's time for you to throw out your overpriced big wireless contract and you do not
00:48:16.040

00:49:00.380
for those of you who signed up to CandaceOwens.com for our exclusive content, that episode 11 is
00:49:06.600
dropping. It is a shot in the dark. The pros and cons of being induced is something that we should
00:49:12.820
definitely talk about because there are pros and there are cons of being induced. And I think I talk
00:49:18.220
a little bit about my birth story there. Some people that were asking me questions like, Candace,
00:49:21.960
I remember when you were at Daily Wire, this was over there, that there may have been some episodes
00:49:26.340
that are not on the website just yet. Like on, I think they were asking about Rogam.
00:49:31.580
Yes, you are correct. We're releasing it on a schedule of every two weeks before I
00:49:35.400
shoot the next season. And then we have the birth control series, which has never been seen.
00:49:40.800
So all of that is coming out. Don't worry. We cover everything, every possible shot that you could be
00:49:45.060
offered while you are pregnant. Vaccines that you could be offered when your children are born,
00:49:50.340
going up through school. So everything's going to be there. I promise you. You guys can head to
00:49:55.460
CandaceOwens.com and sign up. And it is well worth it. Also, we had our first book club meeting
00:50:00.280
yesterday, which was amazing. 1,067 of you joined at CandaceOwens.com. And it just was amazing to just
00:50:06.700
know that I have a little tribe of people that I can just talk about conspiracy theories with.
00:50:10.340
That was very fun. If you'd like to join our book club, we are reading Chaos right now. It was just an
00:50:15.560
introductory first meeting. So you didn't miss too much other than me being excited to be there and
00:50:20.840
speaking about just that time and the place of what was going on in America when these Manson
00:50:25.560
murders took place and how this book ripped me into a new reality. So don't miss the opportunity to
00:50:31.620
join the book club. Head to CandaceOwens.com. Let's see what you guys are saying. Christina says,
00:50:38.560
please capitalize on all your new followers, Candace, and re-share the Balenciaga or re-highlight it or
00:50:46.440
draw attention to it. Anything. There are so many who aren't aware of the evil of that brand. So much
00:50:51.540
love for your hard work. Listen, girl, I am capitalizing, forget Balenciaga, all of Paris right
00:50:56.920
now in our Becoming Brigitte series, which actually includes these brands. LVMH, we've talked about
00:51:04.960
already. I have not yet gotten to Yves Saint Laurent. And it is insane when you learn what's
00:51:10.020
going on with these brands. It wasn't just Balenciaga. And I should have saved that. You're
00:51:14.680
right. Highlighted that on my reel. But there is so much more to talk about. And if you guys are not
00:51:19.100
yet invested in the Brigitte McCrone series, you should be. It's really amazing. I hate to say that
00:51:23.920
as my own work, but it is something that I was so drawn to. And it's not it actually isn't my own
00:51:28.060
work. That's kind of the point. You know, I'm just presenting what was the work of Xavier Poussard,
00:51:31.680
but it is all interconnected. I am telling you guys and just being shocked at the level of deceit
00:51:37.140
that a government can execute upon the people, similar to our theme of the book club. It wakes
00:51:42.500
us all up in a way that I think brings us all together. It's really important stuff.
00:51:47.080
Max writes, it's after 8 a.m. Thursday. Now, my mornings and weekdays are Michael Knows,
00:51:52.340
Matt Walsh, and then Candace. Just so you know, I am so much better than Michael Knows. And when you go
00:51:57.360
there, you tell him that I said that. That's I'm just kidding. That's all love. Michael Knows is
00:52:01.240
actually the godfather to my child. This is like, you know, the Catholic gang gang. Love
00:52:04.740
Matt Walsh. Love his family. Love Michael Knows. He writes, can't wait for you to visit Australia.
00:52:09.860
We have a gap in conservative thought since Tucker last last year, last year, was here last
00:52:14.980
year. I think you're trying to say bless you. I can't wait to be there either. And it's going
00:52:18.720
to be quite a big thing if we win in the Supreme Court of Australia, the High Court of Australia.
00:52:25.260
Yuka writes, God bless you from Japan. I just visited Tokyo this earlier last year. It
00:52:30.660
was October of last year. She writes, appreciating all that you do for speaking
00:52:34.260
out on the truth and the corruption of the world. Tokyo is a wonderful place. I had a
00:52:37.800
great time in Tokyo. Definitely a memorable trip that I had been wanting to do my entire
00:52:41.840
life. Becca writes, God bless you for your work. It always keeps me entertained. During
00:52:45.780
my daughter's nap time, top tier journalism. Thank you, Becca. Irma de Santiago writes, thank
00:52:51.560
you for supporting Justin. Please promote the release of his movie. His cut deserves to be
00:52:55.680
seen. He hasn't released it, so I can't promote it. But I have promoted everything else
00:53:00.000
that Wayfair has in the works, particularly the, I think it's I, Eleanor, Eleanor the Great
00:53:04.400
with Scarlett Johansson. I intend to go see that movie. So other than that, though, I don't know
00:53:10.100
what else I could be promoting of him other than justice for Justin Baldoni. Tanya writes,
00:53:14.480
God bless you, Candace, for speaking the truth about Gaza and for being a good human. Thank you
00:53:18.260
so much. Yes, I use my platform to speak out about what's happening in Gaza because I'm not okay
00:53:22.140
with what our government is doing, how our government has engaged in this left and right,
00:53:26.120
has been deceitful to the people. And we are being lied to by the mainstream media about what
00:53:30.560
what the Gazans have gone through and have been going through for a very long time.
00:53:34.560
Caroline York writes, is Gaza the biggest transaction ever? Are those climate disasters
00:53:38.680
related with the smart cities more control? I love Melania. She's the best. Thank you,
00:53:42.980
Candace, for everything. Christ is king. Yes. Treating human beings like real estate. I believe that
00:53:47.380
this was all a part of the plan, including October 7th, given the commentary that we can go back
00:53:53.460
and watch Bibi Netanyahu before October 7th ever took place of him saying that we need to deliver
00:53:58.320
a pain that is so hardcore to the Palestinians. They won't want to return. And to hear him say this
00:54:04.940
stuff and say, cut off the cameras, lets you know that this is like everything that we're watching
00:54:09.040
right now is just a show. And this was always the final intention, I think, to simply ethnically
00:54:15.580
cleanse the region. And I'm not okay with it. Reality T writes, this is wild. Thank you,
00:54:20.700
Queen Candace. We have literally left the circus and entered the zoo. At least at the circus,
00:54:25.360
the animals are trained. Also, did Khaleesi's dragon unalive her in the end? You know, it didn't end
00:54:31.760
well. Her lover actually unalived her in the end. And that's not, I don't want that for her. Actually,
00:54:37.640
we should not even think about that because Ryan Reynolds makes me very nervous. He makes me very
00:54:42.400
nervous. Can't explain it. I am unnerved by Ryan Reynolds and his behavior throughout all of this,
00:54:48.160
seeing and reading his text messages. We're like, it's like a little too close to the celebrity
00:54:52.820
fire. By the way, prediction, Taylor Swift is now going to disappear. She's going to disappear.
00:54:57.960
And I hope Brian, I hope that Brian Friedman calls her because I'm telling you she had more
00:55:02.540
involvement than she is letting on. She's not innocent in this. I just am reading the tea leaves
00:55:07.900
there. And I think that she helped them significantly. And if she gets subpoenaed, it's going to be very
00:55:12.940
problematic for her and her brand. Anyways, you guys, that is it. We will see you guys
00:55:17.880
tomorrow. We'll be jumping back into the Becoming Brigitte series. It is not too late to start that
00:55:22.240
series. I am telling you, it is extremely compelling. You'll be into it. Also, if you want to support us,
00:55:27.660
you can now buy Make Him a Sandwich, my sophomore book. Super exciting. You can just hand to
00:55:33.560
CandiceOwens.com and you will get a discount if you get it now while it's on pre-sale. Better to buy
00:55:38.580
it now when it's cheaper than when it's full sale. Totally agree. All right, guys. See you tomorrow.
