All right. Welcome back to Flackers Talks, the podcast, episode 144.
00:00:19.780
Today on the show, things at the border are worse than ever,
00:00:23.460
and you won't believe who Joe Biden just blamed for it.
00:00:30.100
We're going to give you the correct take there.
00:00:32.540
Then, in Urban Decay, there are 30 schools in Illinois
00:00:35.260
where not one student is proficient in reading at their grade level.
00:00:39.860
We're going to tell you where all the money went.
00:00:45.540
This Muppet thinks so, and we'll tell you why he might be right.
00:00:49.480
All this and more, it's Flackers Talks, the podcast, episode 144,
00:00:57.420
Because words are just worse until action actually starts.
00:01:03.220
But at the same time, words speak louder than actions
00:01:11.440

00:02:26.140
We are going to be doing a deep dive into the Tucker Putin interview that just dropped.
00:02:34.340
You'll get over four hours of exclusive content each month.
00:02:37.700
If you space it out correctly, you can basically get
00:02:40.120

This show would not exist without Bonusland members.
00:03:01.700
So if you skipped the ad, which I hope you didn't, please go back and watch.
00:03:06.360
But if not, we are going to be covering the Tucker Putin interview in today's Bonusland episode.
00:03:12.120
So make sure you're signed up and ready for that.
00:03:19.080
Joe Biden has been found to have mishandled the documents based on the DOJ investigation.
00:03:23.680
But it sounds like because he's too old and mentally unwell, he's going to be not held accountable.
00:03:36.000
Thomas Massey had an interesting tweet about it that kind of summed it up.
00:03:39.300
He said special counsel just reported that Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified materials and engaged in practices that present serious risks to national security.
00:03:49.240
Even more disturbing, Biden would lack a mental state of willfulness necessary to prosecute.
00:04:03.840
So he's good enough to handle the nuclear codes and go for re-election, but if you press him with charges, he's too stupid.
00:04:11.320
And that's kind of like the interesting catch-22 we're in because it's either he's competent, so he should be charged because he knows what he did, or he's not competent and he shouldn't be the president.
00:04:23.320
And then he gave that speech last night, you know, right at the end of the Tucker stuff when that came out where he basically said, oh, I'm all good.
00:04:32.100
The DOJ did a good job, an exhaustive investigation.
00:04:36.060
And it's like, well, what about all those parts about you forgetting when your son died and you forgetting you were vice president?
00:04:46.980
Meanwhile, Karine Jean-Pierre is explaining away why you've brought up two dead politicians over the last week.
00:04:53.080
And, you know, the American public is just confused, I guess.
00:05:02.100
It said, in his interview with our office, Mr. Biden's memory was worse.
00:05:06.160
He did not remember when he was vice president.
00:05:08.380
Forgetting on the first day of the interview when his term ended, if it was 2013, when did I stop being vice president?
00:05:13.900
And forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began, in 2009, am I still vice president?
00:05:19.020
He did not remember even within several years when his son Bo died.
00:05:29.660
Maybe this is the setup that we've been talking about that is coming.
00:05:35.740
I need a person of color to take my place who's not Kamala Harris because no one would ever vote for her.
00:05:44.560
Kansas City Chiefs versus the San Francisco 49ers.
00:05:57.360
And then you tell the person, hey, it was actually, I said Orlando, not Orlando.
00:06:05.560
I would assume Patrick Mahomes just sneaks another win in.
00:06:12.400
I mean, he's good, but, you know, Patrick Mahomes, it's going to be, you're going to
00:06:16.220
be a footnote on the getting steamrolled by Patrick Mahomes career charts, you know?
00:06:20.580
Brock Purdy is still the type of guy who can throw two picks in a game.
00:06:31.820
My prediction is 35-31 Kansas City, 38-37 Kansas City.
00:06:40.880
So we can cut back and be like, fuck, it's got it right.
00:06:45.960
Travis Kelsey MVP parlayed into an engagement after the game.
00:06:50.580
That's, I mean, you're, you act like you're the first one to predict that.
00:06:54.400
That's kind of standard lore at this point, right?
00:07:02.380
I don't want him to be the MVP and I don't even want the Chiefs to win, but I do need to
00:07:11.360
We have a great show, a very important housekeeping as always.
00:07:19.600
She lost the Nevada primary to quote, none of the above.
00:07:30.440
The deep state is keeping her around and almost makes you kind of alarmed.
00:07:33.920
What do they need an extra candidate for that does all their policies?
00:07:42.900
And all the money should be going to causes to like get Republicans voting for one man,
00:08:00.640
You know, we got like nine months left on the clock.
00:08:05.040
So, I mean, Ronna McDaniel oversaw a bunch of like losses, the 2022 midterms in between,
00:08:10.940
like when Biden already sucked, we kind of didn't steamroll anybody.
00:08:18.000
And I don't know who it's going to be, but there are some, it's a small circle of names
00:08:23.860
It's going to be some Muppet who it's going to be like Tulsi Gabbard or some person who's
00:08:29.600
We don't even trust them so hard, they get let in for somehow, uh, you know, that's
00:08:38.640
Did you know, well, this is an, a New York post article.
00:08:43.100
It says long held belief that bugs are attracted to light disproved in new study.
00:09:04.640
You have a lamp and it gets buzzed and then things are flying around the lights all the
00:09:10.260
But I think they're trying to prime us for something.
00:09:12.960
Uh, they want us to get the idea that something that we believe to be true and know to be true
00:09:20.860
So there could be something coming where this is just a seed that's being planted and there
00:09:24.840
could be something coming that is going to like shatter our worldview.
00:09:29.480
Maybe even the shape of the world itself could be revealed.
00:09:33.380
So they're trying to get this in your mind that like, Hey, something you think is true.
00:09:37.420
A hundred percent actually might've been entirely wrong.
00:09:40.180
So when the next thing comes, they try to tell us we'll actually be like ready to receive
00:09:44.260
it because they lightened it up and they started us off with a smaller bite.
00:09:48.180
So it's a gaslighting warmup drill is what you're saying.
00:09:53.760
Um, maybe it could be, like I said, the earth shape.
00:09:56.720
Maybe it could be about the Madame Tussauds wax museum.
00:10:08.640
I did it on the Vegas trip too, when we passed Madame Tussauds and I was like, Oh, Madame
00:10:18.260
You don't think they're real or like a $10 admission museum thing.
00:10:34.360
Well, they don't even like the flames, you know?
00:10:38.580
Actually, according to studies, it's like, do you ever see a light in the woods and there's
00:10:43.260
Are there a million moths flying everywhere and you're just only seeing the moths in that
00:10:57.120
The Bud Light ad was a mistake of epic proportions.
00:11:02.520
But Anheuser-Busch is not a woke company, but I can give you plenty that are.
00:11:14.460
He's calling the influencers and he's trying to tell them, hey, Bud Light's a good company.
00:11:18.020
They employ farmers and veterans and do all these things.
00:11:21.000
They spend like $700 million on American farmers for all the hops and stuff, right?
00:11:28.540
And there is a world where Bud Light is redeemed, but we need to hear it from Bud Light directly.
00:11:34.280
We need Bud Light to come on the camera, the CEO or the highest guy up there.
00:11:42.000
You need to send out a CEO and have him say, hey, we're done with that twink shit.
00:12:08.920

00:12:25.700
You know, Bud Heavy or like some of the other brands, you know.
00:12:28.840
Or technically they're owned by Anheuser-Busch.
00:12:31.100
Some of those, those get weaker as time goes on.
00:12:33.780
But until they do an on-camera, and 50 grand to us, personally, until they do the on-camera
00:12:43.040
Bud Light is dead until they apologize and acknowledge the twink shit directly.
00:12:48.500
But if they did, they would sell out every beer ever.
00:12:50.580
And then they might, there's no world where they go, hey, that twink shit was a mistake.
00:12:57.000
Unless like BlackRock tries to fuck with you, which they might.
00:13:00.740
They might be the ones, you know, squeezing them behind the back.
00:13:03.380
Yeah, but it's not, it's not like, oh, the proxies are saying this.
00:13:07.860
And obviously Trump is friends with Dana White.
00:13:10.500
And this is all, it's, oh, and Shane Gillis gets a deal.
00:13:13.700
It's like, yeah, you're, you're towing in the right direction, but you haven't really disavowed
00:13:25.640
And also don't buy, don't even, besides this, aside from the take, Bud Light, drinking beer
00:13:33.240
I don't even like drinking beer and like light, cheap beer.
00:13:36.560
It's like, we're trending away from drinking alcohol.
00:13:42.400
So Bud Light, if you want, you can't just send high end endorsements out there.
00:13:53.460
You need to actually have a message directly from Bud Light that says, that acknowledges
00:13:59.240
The funny part is also that Bud Light paid Travis Kelsey a bunch of money to be in a Bud
00:14:03.000
Light commercial, but then at the same time he was in a Pfizer ad.
00:14:05.960
So like, they're like getting Pfizer hate too, lumped in.
00:14:14.860
Disavow the twink shit, publicly do bits and laugh about how you fired the lady.
00:14:19.820
And then also maybe say, hey, this weekend, all, all sales will be donated to the, to the
00:14:31.660
You can't even avoid the twink shit these days.
00:14:46.420
Look who he blamed for the, the millions and millions of third worlders here.
00:14:51.220
Every day between now and November, the American people are going to know that the only reason
00:14:56.180
the border is not secure is Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican friends.
00:15:05.160
Dude, and some people were saying like, oh, this is a brilliant move.
00:15:08.540
They, the Democrats put out this shitty border bill that included 60 billion for Ukraine and
00:15:18.940
It's like, does anybody believe that Joe Biden and is right that the MAGA Republicans are responsible?
00:15:27.500
It's Donald Trump and the MAGA Republicans because the bill on Tuesday didn't pass.
00:15:34.820
Cause the Tuesday bill from last week that, that the caravan in 2022, that's cause of
00:15:40.480
And dude, it's, it's like a masterclass in, we're talking about gaslighting warmups,
00:15:47.280
And then also it kind of shows you like what a Joe Biden's been in the Senate and whatever
00:15:52.100
for 50 years at this point, he's a real sociopath, sick fuck.
00:15:57.460
Like he has no problem getting on camera and saying that type of shit.
00:16:01.200
And the people who run Joe Biden think you're mentally disabled too.
00:16:20.500
It says white house says ICE will reduce deportations, detention capacity.
00:16:24.120
If Republicans don't pass the border bill, you guys aren't doing shit anyway.
00:16:34.980
I jump around on numbers all the time and nobody really knows.
00:16:43.060
Like we're seeing our airports and our schools and our community centers being turned into
00:16:49.860
We're seeing our budgets get cut and then the money is given to them before our eyes.
00:16:53.800
We're seeing our kids in schools being not prioritized and the money's going to the
00:16:59.660
And here's the apprehensions graph in case you're wondering, like, here's what it looks like.
00:17:12.020
Anything from 2021 forward, that was because of last Tuesday's bill.
00:17:22.840
Remember the people who got arrested for stomping out the cops in New York City and they
00:17:28.260
Released on no bail, immediately fled the jurisdiction.
00:17:52.820
I'm obviously against illegal immigration for everyone for forever.
00:17:56.700
But when I was a kid growing up, the illegal immigrants we got were higher caliber.
00:18:05.380
Keep your head down and work hard and, oh, it's no problem.
00:18:08.880
Well, it was the tiptoe around mentality where it's like, if I get caught by the wrong guy,
00:18:15.140
And now it's like the, I'm entitled to do crime attitude.
00:18:18.400
And then you're going to let me go and I'm going to laugh.
00:18:20.240
And that guy said when he was getting interviewed, oh, I'll be viral for this tomorrow.
00:18:28.800
Do you want to go to the Venezuelan Chicago thieves after this?
00:18:31.600
I wish there was a place we could put the criminal illegals.
00:18:34.940
Like, do we have like projects that need rocks to be smashed for it?
00:18:38.700
We can just send them to smash the rocks for the big projects like building a highway or something.
00:18:45.500
Um, so, and this, the, you commit crimes in New York and then immediately flee to Phoenix
00:18:50.620
where you're eventually apprehended only because you were a high profile case.
00:18:54.260
If they hadn't flicked off cameras and stomped the cop on camera, they'd be like any other,
00:18:59.260
uh, shoplifter or low level criminal who just kind of gets away with it.
00:19:04.240
Um, and so that brings us to a story out of Chicago.
00:19:06.640
Basically the number of foreign nationals arrested for shoplifting in river North is soaring.
00:19:11.640
Officials say one migrant has been arrested for shoplifting four times.
00:19:15.500
Since December 3rd, under three different names with three different addresses, which is kind
00:19:23.320
The important part is not the fact that obviously foreign national shoplifting is going up.
00:19:29.720
But there's a couple of interesting little pieces.
00:19:32.360
Sheriff's officials released the information this week as they announced the arrests of
00:19:38.500
An investigation that began after police learned that people were hiring the migrants to shoplift
00:19:43.580
certain products in exchange for fraudulent IDs.
00:19:47.160
So they're trading stolen retail goods for fake IDs.
00:19:54.760
That's like how they operate without being on the radar.
00:19:59.320
Um, and so we're going to put a mugshot of this guy, right?
00:20:03.400
Three different mugshots for three different retail thefts in Chicago.
00:20:06.800
Uh, and basically among the foreigners accused of shoplifting in river North during December
00:20:10.840
is a Venezuelan man who has been arrested four times under three names, Luis Keynes Padilla,
00:20:16.420
or maybe it's Ronald Brito Padilla, or possibly Jose Gonzalez.
00:20:26.500
But so that's something you're going to see more of, right?
00:20:28.700
Like where if somebody comes across the border, they claim asylum under a name.
00:20:34.500
When it's time to play, it's easy to find your next favorite game with Bodog.
00:20:39.260
Play free casino games, get poker tips, and check out the latest sports odds.
00:20:52.700
Like they, a DUI or shoplifting or something like that.
00:21:00.620
And so when they come in for their 2028 court date to our beleaguered, uh, immigration courts,
00:21:08.480
So they're going to have to come up with an alias.
00:21:10.280
And like, it kind of leaves these people like, uh, untethered to anything.
00:21:16.900
So they, they're done trying to abide by like immigration rules or like being a member of,
00:21:29.040
If they enter a country with a fake name, then they get like pop for something.
00:21:32.120
And then it's like, Oh, I've got to burn that alias.
00:21:34.820
They put it in a bag and they're like, all right, Jose Padilla Contrera is, is gone.
00:21:41.660
And so like, that's like, how can you possibly have a secure nation?
00:21:44.820
If people are doing this type of shit and this is Chicago PD who arrested the guy three times
00:21:54.440
It's not like they keep them in the cell and they go, Hey, whatever you want to call yourself
00:21:57.900
We got the physical body who's been harming everybody.
00:22:04.060
Oh, come back in three years for your court date and make sure you keep that same fake
00:22:07.460
name for us or else we won't be able to find you.
00:22:11.760
It's like, uh, and remember when it used to be cool with, uh, what's his name?
00:22:15.740
Frank Abagnale, the Leo DiCaprio catch me if you can guy back in those days.
00:22:21.940
Maybe that's what that, the whole point of that movie was.
00:22:25.620
Teach the illegals and to soften our view on identity fraud.
00:22:32.380
If you look, you're saying that I'm just saying it's like that.
00:22:35.320
If you look, there's dots everywhere that can be.
00:22:37.760
I don't draw the marker between the dots though.
00:22:39.640
I just go, Hey, those dots are kind of similar.
00:22:42.240
I draw the marker between the dots and then soon the whole paper's covered in black lines.
00:22:49.780
Uh, Democrats are most concerned about undocumented aliens, undocumented Americans.
00:22:55.960
They did an interview and that's who they said they were most concerned with.
00:23:00.460
The negotiation didn't have a path to citizenship.
00:23:03.240
It was entirely on their terms in order to get Ukraine funding, right?
00:23:08.620
Well, I mean, Chris, that's been a failed play for 20 years.
00:23:11.560
So you are right that that has been the democratic strategy for 30 years, maybe.
00:23:17.280
Uh, and it has failed to deliver for the people we care about most, the undocumented Americans that are in this country.
00:23:29.520
And the people that they care about most, the undocumented Americans.
00:23:35.680
They're just people who got in our borders within the confines of the United States.
00:23:41.240
And then, like, the thing that they have in common is they all broke federal law to get here.
00:23:46.840
So it's like, you're automatically a criminal if you're here illegally, no matter what your sob story is.
00:23:58.040
And then you look at a man on the street video like this and it kind of makes you able to connect the dots a little easier.
00:24:28.140
And then they said, and I don't know if this is true, but they said because they entered legally, like, legally as an asylum-seeking migrant, that they're allowed to vote?
00:24:38.780
I mean, they said they're talking about the people who did it legally.
00:24:41.800
Asylum seekers know they're not citizens, I think.
00:24:48.100
But remember in 2020 how, like, they used the mail-in ballots and then, like, legally that they were allowed to do mail-in ballots because of COVID.
00:24:55.780
But then that's, like, the loophole they used to send in millions and millions of mail-in ballots.
00:25:00.840
Maybe there's something similar getting cooked up here where all these migrants, because they're legally entered, not illegally, because they're classified not as illegal aliens but as migrants or asylum seekers, maybe they'll try to get them to vote.
00:25:13.200
Or maybe have them vote without showing ID at certain places.
00:25:18.960
They're going to have to break the law to do it.
00:25:21.740
But it's, like, the people who already are comfortable breaking the law, will they break the law?
00:25:28.220
I'm sure there's going to be some pay-for-votes type situation.
00:25:32.160
All right, last piece of our immigration section.
00:25:34.060
This is a sheriff who met with Christopher Wray, the head of the FBI, and listened to what he said.
00:25:40.580
I'm the Butler County Sheriff, Butler County, Ohio.
00:25:43.380
I just came back from a national sheriff's training in D.C.
00:25:54.280
The president of the United States refuses to meet with the sheriffs of the 3,300.
00:26:02.860
The president of the United States refuses to meet with the sheriffs.
00:26:05.860
He refuses to meet with them to talk about border issues or talk about crime that's going on because of the border issue.
00:26:13.100
We were also told by Mr. Wray, the FBI director, that there are more red flags going off now than before 9-11.
00:26:21.300
When I say red flags, meaning people that are here in this country that are wanting to do harm to us.
00:26:27.720
We were also explained we're bombing two countries right now.
00:26:32.320
These people do not like us before this started.
00:26:35.240
There's thousands of people here from other countries.
00:26:44.800
Some of them are coming because they're wanting to come here to the best country in the world.
00:26:54.620
Yeah, it sounds like things might get explosive.
00:26:58.140
Yeah, and then he eventually says that it's not a matter of if, it's a matter of when,
00:27:02.040
because the threats are so serious and they got more threats than they had when 9-11 happened.
00:27:06.560
Yeah, Democrats want to import an economic underclass who will be on the hook voting for them for a long time,
00:27:14.220
and they may have accidentally imported some terrorists.
00:27:24.360
I've been doing something lately that I highly want.
00:27:27.160
What would your alias be if Fleckis got burned?
00:27:36.420
I don't have one, so I'm going to think and I'll get back to you, all right?
00:27:44.640
That's my alias in college when I was in the Three Snack Mafia.
00:27:54.260
I've been doing this thing lately that I highly recommend to everyone watching.
00:27:59.780
So when I get in my car, I usually plug in my phone and listen to the same 20 songs on repeat.
00:28:04.280
And then for some reason, my phone wasn't attaching and connecting to the car.
00:28:08.240
And then I just got stuck listening to the radio.
00:28:10.400
But then I heard a lot of songs that I would never pick for myself on Spotify that I enjoyed.
00:28:16.280
I'm going to select a couple of favorite stations and we're going to listen to the radio.
00:28:22.740
You hear all different songs that you wouldn't really like or pick otherwise.
00:28:26.440
This was like the pitch from like 1948 when the radio was getting popular.
00:28:31.960
Like, hey, it's all these songs you might not have heard.
00:28:35.940
And it's kind of like the 90s, 2000s all over again.
00:28:39.320
We went too far ahead when we can pick our own music and attach to our phones.
00:28:44.600
Now that all the way back to Amish, right to 90s and 2000s radio listening in the car.
00:28:51.420
And I've also been doing something else, which maybe not for everybody.
00:29:03.660
It's pretty final and it's pretty proper and official.
00:29:07.060
And if you don't feel confident in trying it, try it on someone who doesn't speak English as their first language.
00:29:15.080
So if you want to try it and get comfortable with it and then eventually work your way up to a real person.
00:29:23.000
Well, hey, I was actually thinking about this too.
00:29:26.000
Like, hey, if all the illegals are here, you might as well exploit them.
00:29:30.880
Maybe it's time to start that, like, hedge crew where you pick up all eight illegals from Home Depot type shit.
00:29:41.740
I haven't brainstormed that too much, but I feel like we might as well.
00:29:50.360
But if they're outside the Home Depot near you and they're looking to work and you got some jobs.
00:30:13.940
And they do things like, for example, it says it's time to get off work, but she hasn't finished her work yet.
00:30:46.620
It connects us with the dingy parts of the world we thought were unattainable and unreachable.
00:30:56.180
She's like a wage slave for making 50 cents a day.
00:31:12.500
The entire top part, the entire top third is just black screen.
00:31:21.540
If you have cool things to send us, the PO box is open.
00:31:24.140
Also take this opportunity to help us tickle the post, to help us juice the algorithm.
00:31:29.480
Make sure you like the video, comment, comment again, and then start talking about what you
00:31:36.480
And last but not least, make sure notifications are on.
00:31:40.100
Let's get into our final pieces of housekeeping.
00:31:43.200
We have a piece of advice that I think show watchers could benefit from.
00:31:47.280
Your fear of looking stupid is holding you back.
00:31:52.040
But remember, only listen to this advice if you're very talented and you sure you have
00:31:57.980
That's important because if you don't, you could look pretty stupid and you don't want
00:32:04.140
So it's like if you have the it factor and you're talented, don't let the fear of other
00:32:10.420
But if you're not sure if you have the it factor, you're really talented and you're
00:32:15.660
Let's assume the worst and don't really do anything because it could look cringe in front
00:32:24.020
At a time where cringe on social media is such a currency, maybe beta test it on a small
00:32:28.960
group of friends if you're thinking about doing something.
00:32:31.600
So don't let your fear of looking stupid hold you back if you have it.
00:32:34.500
But if you're not sure if you have it or not, assume you don't and just keep doing
00:33:04.900
Oh, you know, I read when I go downhill quick, something clicks deep in my DNA.
00:33:10.000
And I think that my last time you went downhill.
00:33:12.640
I think my lineage and my heritage and my ancestors were fast descenders on mountains
00:33:18.400
and hills, because when I go down a hill or mountain fast, it like I get extra juice.
00:33:25.740
You don't look like a nimble hill descending type.
00:33:34.080
So a feather in a rock, you know, it's the same.
00:33:43.760
You need a vacuum for that to fall at the same speed.
00:33:49.260
But it's a bad sport if you're just starting out, because the learning curve is probably
00:33:54.660
It's like, oh, you're not supposed to do this mistake.
00:33:59.780
I can't believe that was your take on this, that you think you have some genetic tie to
00:34:08.900
How come every time I go down a hill fast and I pull out fine, I don't crash, my DNA pulses
00:34:32.800
This might be the most important announcement we've ever made.
00:34:38.280
The Flex Start fundraiser at Pine Straw Ranch presented by Fleckis Talks, the podcast.
00:34:45.240
It's happening in Eastover, South Carolina on February 25th.
00:34:52.860
I don't really like disc golf, but I do think it's funny when a real event is presented by
00:35:00.800
And the guy who reached out to us is a longtime show watcher, longtime viewer.
00:35:04.840
And he just kind of went on a whim and asked, and Fleckis, you caught him on the right day.
00:35:09.640
He said, yes, I'll sponsor the disc golf tournament.
00:35:16.260
If you're a disc golfer in the Carolina area, Eastover, South Carolina is where it's at.
00:35:24.080
Happy to sponsor these guys, even though you might remember my views of disc golf.
00:35:39.320
Like I said, as long as it says presented by Fleckis Talks, you can do whatever you want
00:35:48.180
And if you're a Fleckis Talks fan and you want to go and you live in South Carolina,
00:35:57.720
Our first clip of Cringe is Kurt Cobain trans, mister.
00:36:10.940
I bet you didn't know that Kurt Cobain was probably trans.
00:36:15.680
First off, Kurt wore a lot of women's clothing.
00:36:19.020
And when asked about this, they replied that they wore dresses all the time because they
00:36:27.480
And in an interview about their childhood, Kurt said that they mostly hung out around girls
00:36:32.160
and that at one point they thought they might be gay.
00:36:36.800
Kurt is also quoted as saying that they identify more with the feminine than with the masculine.
00:36:42.060
This is clear proof that Kurt did not identify with the gender they were assigned at birth.
00:36:46.240
Of course, Kurt will never be able to tell us themselves, but the evidence makes it pretty
00:37:01.400
You know, trans people existed then too, right?
00:37:21.020
Also, there is another compelling piece of evidence.
00:37:24.720
If you want to say Kurt Cobain was trans, how Kurt Cobain's life ended is in line with
00:37:35.500
If Mr. Sir had said, and then also Kurt Cobain, that would have been like, hmm.
00:37:48.420
And then the anecdotes about hanging out with girls.
00:37:50.400
Like, so there is a thing of like the trans people who try to transify our history and
00:37:56.840
they do it with like the, remember the Viking found, like the woman Viking found with a sword
00:38:01.260
and they say maybe they were trans, but it was really the sword of her husband who died
00:38:14.500
Never thought about any weird shit that will be invented in the future.
00:38:25.960
There was another one I saw and I forget who it was, but it was a woman leader and Mimetic
00:38:30.500
Sisyphus was tweeting about it and he said, uh, there was like this competent woman leader
00:38:35.500
and they were like, well, maybe she was non-binary and it's like one of the only respected women
00:38:40.840
And they're like, ah, probably wasn't a woman really.
00:38:48.000
Let's go to the trans kid telling you to be who you are.
00:38:56.440
I don't get how someone could get this mad at just being who we are.
00:39:04.120
Like that just sounds very simple, but that, that sentence, like be who you are, that is
00:39:10.980
such like, I don't even, they're trying to take away our pride.
00:39:25.040
But there's an argument that's made a lot of times for the trans community saying like,
00:39:34.460
You customize the ride quite a bit from the stock model.
00:39:38.400
You got a little weird with it and you're getting pretty specific into what you're into.
00:39:43.340
It's very different from how the model came off the factory floor versus what you added
00:39:51.360
And the phrase be who you are can be used as a positive, like be who you are, be trans,
00:40:00.000
So it's one of those phrases that has a two way go.
00:40:09.860
It's like, oh, I just don't understand that this, it's like, get your coherent thoughts.
00:40:17.640
I'm sure that's how the parents are off camera.
00:40:32.200
Isn't it kind of funny that the only time we're even having conversations about pronouns
00:40:35.080
now is when straight heteronormative homophobic people bring it up.
00:40:37.800
Like the LGBT community was like, hey, we're going to start identifying the way we want
00:40:41.900
And then we put it in our email tagline and we call it a day.
00:40:44.860
Anytime these people see a comment they don't like, they click on a profile, they see pronouns
00:41:02.380
Um, you're teaching it to fucking kids in schools.
00:41:06.000
And you're saying this is the correct take to children.
00:41:12.820
I don't care if adults want to spin their wheels in the mud and do nothing.
00:41:16.360
And talk to each other in their own secret code.
00:41:18.900
I spoke to a medic Sisyphus about this, who is linked in the description.
00:41:23.640
Make sure you guys follow him on either Twitter or Instagram.
00:41:25.860
But he said they put social signifiers on themselves and hate when people don't react how they
00:41:31.060
So it's like wearing a rival team's jersey to a home game and then thinking, why is everyone
00:41:50.100
You know how the Democrats always accuse Republicans for banning books because we don't want literal
00:41:55.900
P-O-R-N in children's libraries and stuff like that because it's not appropriate for
00:42:02.220
The illustrations of some non-straight person sucking a dildo that everybody read at the
00:42:13.020
Then it's like, well, why, if I can't read it to a room of adults, why is it offered
00:42:16.520
to a middle school library, middle school kids?
00:42:19.800
And then they always accuse us for wanting to like ban books.
00:42:22.400
Well, we actually found some book banning that was going on.
00:42:25.640
The Biden administration was talking directly with Amazon, trying to get them to ban and
00:42:31.780
throttle books about, I think the Maxine and COVID.
00:42:37.440
So Jim Jordan, who is chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, he posted this the other
00:42:43.120
He said, never before released emails subpoenaed by the judiciary GOP revealed that Biden White
00:42:48.200
House pressured Amazon to censor books that expressed views the White House did not approve
00:42:53.940
And so I'm going to read a couple of little lines here.
00:42:58.880
It says, a week later on March 9th, 2021, Amazon met with White House officials.
00:43:03.020
This is after the White House emailed them some vague thing about like throttling all the
00:43:07.760
books that they deemed misinformation about COVID.
00:43:10.260
Amazon met with White House officials according to the emails and the company's top talking
00:43:14.620
points going in was whether the Biden administration wanted books blacklisted by the website or
00:43:22.200
And then, so they said, is the admin asking us to remove books or are they more concerned
00:43:25.760
about search results or both, reads the company email.
00:43:28.800
And ultimately, the pressure applied by the Biden administration apparently worked as the
00:43:33.000
company put anti-vax books under a do not promote order the same day Amazon officials
00:43:43.160
They just want to get mad at us however they can.
00:43:45.580
And they assume their audience won't connect the dots or look into it or say, ooh, isn't
00:44:05.060
You guys can write as much gay porn and stupid shit as you want, but it's like, what goes
00:44:12.100
That doesn't count as banning books if it's not in the kid's library.
00:44:16.260
But then if you throttle something on Amazon, the number one seller of books in the world.
00:44:26.880
Pierre will be like, actually, we did not burn any books.
00:44:38.280
So, I mean, banning books, they always accuse you of what you want to do or what they're
00:44:47.040
And we also find out about this always two and a half years later.
00:44:50.800
There's this like slow drip of justice where it's like, conspiracy theorists were right.
00:44:56.820
And then like you said, like Rules for Radicals says, you accuse them of what you're doing
00:45:03.740
So, they accuse us of banning books while they're actually banning books.
00:45:06.900
And then you figure out, hey, you guys were the ones banning books.
00:45:13.140
We say you ban books and then you say, oh, actually, it's us.
00:45:19.380
So, it's so hard to reverse it emotionally that it's like impossible to even correct
00:45:24.800
it because everyone on the left is like book banning Republicans.
00:45:50.140
Because you can go sleep with a girl right now and it's just pleasure.
00:45:53.040
For example, we're surrounded right now by a shit ton of amazing clubs.
00:45:56.540
You can walk into the club right now, get super drunk and just have a one night stand.
00:46:00.500
But you're still coming home to me, sleeping with me, providing for me and doing everything
00:46:05.460
It's just biologically made that men are going to go ahead and cheat because it's just pleasure.
00:46:15.840
Basically, this is one big advertisement against Miami.
00:46:19.440
And you know someone completely botched their marriage because they kind of were like,
00:46:30.900
And if you were a high value male, you actually wouldn't cheat.
00:46:38.460
I'm going to go back to the typical Fleckis saying, which is you don't need all girls to
00:46:50.720
You want someone with obviously traditional values.
00:46:53.160
Once you start thinking like this, it gets you skewed and put in a bad cycle.
00:46:57.540
And it's not going to end in like a nice family unit with a high quality girl.
00:47:01.920
You're going to get stuck married to someone like that.
00:47:03.860
And then you're going to have daughters like that.
00:47:08.260
If you like the girl you're with, would you like a daughter that's exactly like her?
00:47:12.440
And if the answer is not anything other than yes, 100 percent, then you're in some trouble.
00:47:22.320
Also, like, are we going to talk about this at all?
00:47:25.780
The Senate just voted to independent bills to fund Israel and Ukraine.
00:47:31.700
So that just happened before we walked into film.
00:47:34.000
And it's like, fine, we can't get a border deal.
00:47:36.380
We're going to at least take care of Ukraine and Israel.
00:47:39.140
But we're all still going to send money to Ukraine and Israel.
00:47:47.900
We're sending Israel and Ukraine money on credit.
00:47:57.120
You know, you, hey, you can go, you know, have fun tonight.
00:48:01.840
There's a truck that drives upriver in Uplifting Gold.
00:48:11.120
Urban Decay, our first story, the Oakland iPhone stealer.
00:48:19.760
And you guys have probably seen it super viral this week.
00:48:34.620
It's interesting because they cut the camera spins and there's like a cop car outside.
00:48:44.820
So you remember how we covered last week how Oakland had all those stores shut down?
00:48:49.200
They didn't have Raising Cane's and Denny's and they weren't able to have anything?
00:49:12.980
It is a once majestical whale covered in parasites.
00:49:30.620
And we've kind of joked about people who weigh 500 pounds and it's like you blew past rock bottom five times, right?
00:49:44.100
Like it's kind of the same principle where there were so many opportunities to stop this guy and still nobody did, right?
00:49:51.140
And then also he's stealing all these showroom floor phones, which I'm pretty sure don't work.
00:49:57.080
Apple can remotely brick them and make them non-operational, right?
00:50:00.480
Maybe there's a world where you can out-brick the brick from Apple.
00:50:03.860
But I think he's probably going to sell this to someone who thinks they're real phones and he's going to scam a different scammer.
00:50:09.700
He's going to give like – he's going to sell 10 phones to somebody for $1,500 and then they're all going to be bricked.
00:50:15.740
So this is just leg one in a multi-leg crime parlay.
00:50:20.760
So maybe, you know, he's scamming the next scammer or maybe they're selling it for parts.
00:50:25.340
And then here, I'm going to play this too because I want to get more into the parasitic thing.
00:50:29.900
Oakland's only Denny's restaurant has closed because of safety concerns.
00:50:34.500
The restaurant on Hagenberger Road near the Oakland Airport had been at this location for over 50 years.
00:50:48.860
So Denny's can't even sustain itself in Oakland.
00:50:51.660
And like we said last week before, I just want to talk about it because we've seen it with cities like Detroit where Detroit, maybe Baltimore, and Oakland's kind of the next one up.
00:51:04.480
But it's kind of this world where criminals can always exist on a host, right?
00:51:10.360
San Francisco's got all the tech money in the world, right?
00:51:13.780
And they can host – that host body is a great, mighty blue whale, right?
00:51:19.320
And all these parasites can kind of – you know, oh, I live here.
00:51:23.140
I flip credit cards that I steal from the restaurants and all that.
00:51:29.020
But what we're seeing in Oakland is when the host body dies and now it's just crime on crime on crime and then the parasites kind of start eating themselves.
00:51:40.660
So I think Oakland's going down straight down the toilet and it's kind of like a lesson where the host needs to play defense against the parasites.
00:51:51.880
Otherwise, the parasites will overtake the entire host and then the host body dies and then it's a lost city like Detroit.
00:52:02.080
Similar to almost a lost city but not as bad because it's a real city, Chicago.
00:52:05.780
Chicago and New York, L.A., those types have enough like financial infrastructure to not necessarily die because of the parasites.
00:52:17.340
There's a huge industrial base, a lot of small – like, you know, trains, transportation, all that stuff in Chicago.
00:52:23.660
But it's not exactly at risk of getting totally rug pulled, you know?
00:52:27.380
But there are obviously problems with the school districts.
00:52:30.600
Not a single student can read at grade level in 30 schools in Illinois.
00:52:35.780
And they're all city of Chicago school districts, the most of them.
00:52:39.560
And lots of people will say, well, these schools are underserved schools that just need more funding.
00:52:44.420
Here's the graph of spending, K through 12 spending per pupil and their achievement results.
00:52:50.120
So the red, green, and purple lines are their scores, their test scores, which are flat and basically at zero.
00:52:56.360
And then the blue line is the federal spending, which since like 2000 has basically skyrocketed and as of right now is like 500 percent increased.
00:53:08.500
And the kids – so all the spending has increased like three, four, five-fold and none of the kids know anything.
00:53:14.120
And then we found this other graph that shows the growth in administrative staff, principals, teachers, and students in public schools.
00:53:23.380
So the number of students has basically stayed the same.
00:53:25.800
The number of admins is up 88 percent in the last like 10 years.
00:53:31.280
And then assistant principals is up like almost 40 percent too.
00:53:37.400
Teachers score – or students' math scores, reading scores, whatever, they're all the same.
00:53:41.940
But it somehow costs four times as more to get the same amount of kids not reading at grade level.
00:53:47.500
You double the admins and the kids still can't read or do anything or learn anything.
00:53:54.280
One school spends $56,000 per student and there's 44 students in a grade and not one of them can read.
00:54:01.760
So if you need more money, what do you need the money for?
00:54:07.900
It's like you're going to pay the kid to learn how to read.
00:54:10.240
You're going to pay the kid's parents to teach him how to read.
00:54:14.500
You're going to pay the parents to set some values into the kid 10 years ago?
00:54:30.300
And, you know, the same thing is happening in a lot of industries.
00:54:35.740
This is colleges and universities got administrator blown out.
00:54:39.300
Look at like University of Michigan's DEI department and stuff like that.
00:54:44.680
Healthcare is paying for a lot of random administrators to shuffle papers and talk about insurance and stuff.
00:54:51.780
Is this just like what happens in the late development of a system?
00:55:01.720
So they're just like, oh, we'll hire more admins.
00:55:05.760
The number of admins just goes through the roof and you're just giving jobs to people.
00:55:08.540
But no one is doing what got you there in the first place, which is like we need to teach kids.
00:55:14.480
Like these people all want to get – they want to feast.
00:55:16.800
They want to feast off those nice salaries and teachers' pensions.
00:55:21.260
And, you know, it's a parasite versus the host body again.
00:55:27.100
The kids stole a car and then got – they say kidnapped.
00:55:30.580
So this kid stole a car and the people who owned the car caught him in the process and they kind of kidnapped him, held him for ransom and called the kid's dad.
00:55:38.460
Two people in Columbus are facing felony charges after police say they kidnapped a 13-year-old boy after allegedly catching him inside their Kia.
00:55:47.700
Police say the suspects forced the boy into their home at gunpoint and demanded $3,000 from the victim's father in ransom.
00:55:55.180
Carla Rogner joins us live in studio with new details we now know about this case.
00:56:01.160
Neighbors tell me there was a huge police presence at the apartment complex and the SWAT team responded to the kidnapping.
00:56:07.180
The defendants were in court this morning and are each being held on $500,000 bonds.
00:56:11.180
20-year-old CeCe Prack and 21-year-old Zachary Boyd are accused of kidnapping, holding, and threatening –
00:56:22.120
I don't know whose side I'm on because the kid was stealing the car.
00:56:32.120
And then you call the kid's parents and say, hey, give us $3,000.
00:56:42.460
Put the kid in juvie and maybe give these people a warning.
00:56:45.840
If you're not going to arrest any criminals, you can't arrest these people.
00:56:49.760
They're taking the law into their own hands, which everyone's telling them not to do.
00:56:52.880
But you kind of have to when there's no law being taken into anyone else's hands.
00:56:59.700
And the cops are actively deciding that every time.
00:57:02.100
I'm like, who – the little Kia boy didn't pass the line.
00:57:12.200
So it's tough because you don't know whose side to be on because it's like a lawless world that the Democrats created.
00:57:19.320
And then they're also mad at Kia for making a car that's so easily stealable when it's really like you should be mad at the car thieves, not Kia for making a car that you can steal.
00:57:32.180
But if you steal someone's car or mess up someone's car, you can really mess their life up.
00:57:38.020
And that's – I think Cernovich was posting about that recently because if you're – say you're a guy with a van and it's all your tools in your car.
00:57:46.900
You miss like three days of work, which can really affect your month.
00:57:50.400
And say you have kids and you're paying for certain things.
00:57:53.940
Like remember back in Texas used to execute horse thieves?
00:58:02.200
It's because your car for a lot of people is like one of the most important assets you have to keep your life going.
00:58:10.680
Let's move on to – we can move on to the L.A. graffiti.
00:58:14.320
Yeah, this is just a real classic case of urban decay, so it had to go in.
00:58:19.000
These are luxury apartment buildings or condos in L.A., and they've been taken over.
00:58:31.360
And these are like luxury buildings in kind of the heart of downtown, right?
00:58:35.060
Yeah, I think they're building this building, so that's why they were able to kind of like get up there and on the scaffolding or whatever.
00:58:55.540
He just climbed up on that fucking – on the garbage can.
00:59:03.560
We had to blur it a little bit, but that's what's going on on Fifth Ave right in midtown Manhattan.
00:59:11.460
The city never sleeps or uses the bathroom correctly.
00:59:23.200
The Supreme Court is about to strike down the Colorado Muppets.
00:59:26.980
The Supreme Court basically is looking like it's gearing up to absolutely shit on Colorado for removing Trump off the ballot.
00:59:33.020
They have basically – turns out they have basically no legal standing.
00:59:43.060
And then you wasted everyone's time, and you get to the Supreme Court, and you lose 8 to 1.
00:59:46.920
or 9-0, kind of like a slap on the wrist time, right?
00:59:58.760
We have one main clip that we're going to end with.
01:00:01.580
It's a little long, but we're going to start with the Spanish-speaking day laborer joke.
01:00:06.580
On our outdoor kitchen project, let's ask Juan Carlos how much longer he thinks until we wrap up the project.
01:00:14.480
El problema es de que estoy solo, no tengo herramientas, a lo mejor una semana más, dos semanas más.
01:00:34.900
And one week, in the best case, two weeks, probably.
01:00:50.040
If you don't speak English, hey, can you blame me for assuming illegal?
01:00:59.160
And that's the thing, too, is all these shitty illegals, like the criminals with the fake IDs, the multiple aliases, they're ruining it for everybody else.
01:01:08.860
And that's also something I noticed is there's no internal policing mechanism between them.
01:01:16.100
There's just fights at the migrant camps, and it's a power struggle.
01:01:19.720
So nobody polices anyone, and the bad ones ruin it for the medium ones.
01:01:32.180
The number of Venezuelan criminals arrested from 2022 to 2023, it went up 2,500%.
01:01:45.680
So there's a certain type of Venezuelan rat running around.
01:02:05.240
It's pretty deep in the water, but he starts going all the way up like a horse.
01:02:23.680
Let's go to the guy who's talking about the Redwoods.
01:02:25.920
I'm assuming in Northern California, the old growth and how they handle fires.
01:02:30.320
I keep telling you guys that old growth forests are better for fires and monocultures make wildfires first.
01:02:37.700
These trees had fire up to 100 feet tall on them.
01:02:44.720
Because they got Mother Nature's fire control armor.
01:02:51.460
A second growth redwood monoculture that loggers had in ashes.
01:03:25.640
So make sure whatever you guys like in your life a lot, you keep doing.
01:03:30.560
You'll lose the soul from your eyes if you don't.
01:03:33.560
Our last clip of Uplifting Gold is a little long, but it's the roofer charity company.
01:03:38.980
They're going around to people's houses and offering free services.
01:03:54.380
We go out and we give back to the community by providing free services.
01:03:57.800
So I wanted to offer you to replace the gutters on your house completely free.
01:04:04.640
So like you can see eventually we are going to need our roof done.
01:04:10.560
This whole side, it gets, every windstorm it gets blown off.
01:04:51.280
And we decided to come back and put a brand new steel roof on your house completely free.
01:05:03.180
This is your dream house and the roof is one of the major like repairs, investments in
01:05:11.160
We're going to come back and install a brand new steel roof on your house.
01:05:24.320
This is something that's been on our mind for like a while.
01:05:27.500
Like, we're like, are we going to do it this year or am I going to throw some tar on the
01:05:43.240
And it's obviously a marketing thing, too, for the Rude Ann Roofing.
01:05:49.220
Make sure you guys leave them a positive review because they go out every week and they do charitable
01:06:02.140
No, that's and that's kind of the charity that I think is the next wave because, hey, taxpayers,
01:06:10.540
America is babysitting as many third worlders as we can right now.
01:06:19.400
Who actually deserve the charity and then are probably trying to like balance their finances
01:06:26.560
The husband goes up and tars the roof every season.
01:06:28.840
You know, like that's kind of the best form of charity.
01:06:34.200
And one of your your husband or your daughter or something has a kid.
01:06:38.380
It's like, don't be don't be signing something to the Red Cross.
01:06:44.120
Well to do people helping other well to do people is kind of like the next wave of charity.
01:06:52.700
Make sure you guys leave a positive review for their roofing business linked in the description.
01:06:59.040
And that's what we do on our Friday show with our shout outs.
01:07:06.900
She likes when I wear nice button down shirts and polos.
01:07:10.200
So I try to wear something a little fancier today.
01:07:21.180
Show watcher, her and her daughter, both are show watchers.
01:07:24.460
And her daughter is the one who got me onto my cellular detox journey and my healthy living.
01:07:36.180
So couldn't have done that without you because you made your daughter who helped me.
01:07:53.520
Him and his wife, Quillen, are big show watchers.
01:08:24.100
Fleckustalks.com for bonus land, which is dropping very soon.
01:08:28.380
And we are going to be talking about Tucker Putin, along with some other things you're
01:08:32.600
So make sure you tune into that and support the show.
01:08:41.160
The only reason the border is not secure is Donald Trump and his MAGA Republican friends.
01:08:47.160
The only reason behind the border is the most secure is not secure.
