Human Events Daily with Jack Posobiec - THOUGHTCRIME Ep. 80 — ADHD？ Karmelo Anthony Press Conference？ Katy Perry In Space？

00:00:00.680 From the age of big brother.

00:00:03.040 If they want to get you, they'll get you.

00:00:05.740 DNS specifically targets the communications of everyone.

00:00:09.660 They're collecting your communications.

00:00:20.480 Okay, everybody, it is Thought Crime Thursday.

00:00:23.260 We are live from an undisclosed location in Pullman, Washington.

00:00:26.160 Not every day do you host Thought Crime in Pullman, Washington.

00:00:32.480 Are you sure, Charlie?

00:00:34.420 You look like you might be trapped in like a...

00:00:38.080 Did you get shipped to El Salvador?

00:00:40.160 Is this a hostage video?

00:00:42.360 Yeah, does this look like a hostage video?

00:00:44.660 I blame Brian completely.

00:00:46.920 We could have had the Palouse as the background.

00:00:50.100 But instead, we decided to have some sort of bunker.

00:00:53.780 Welcome to Thought Crime, everybody.

00:00:56.880 The topics today are going to be fun and exciting.

00:00:59.080 I think our first one is ADHD, if I'm not mistaken.

00:01:02.740 Which, honestly, we need Jack for an ADHD segment.

00:01:05.740 How could we possibly do ADHD without Jack?

00:01:09.640 Let's do Carmelo Anthony, because you weren't here last week for that.

00:01:13.100 Right.

00:01:13.920 So, Carmelo Anthony, not to be confused with the other Carmelo Anthony.

00:01:18.040 This is Carmelo with a K, not Carmelo with a C.

00:01:20.960 He, Carmelo Anthony, of course, played for the Denver Nuggets, right?

00:01:24.440 He was a Syracuse guy, right, Brian?

00:01:26.500 In the Knicks.

00:01:27.400 Yeah, Syracuse.

00:01:28.040 I think he won a national title for Syracuse with Jim Boeheim back in like 0-1, 0-2, 0-3.

00:01:35.260 So, this young man was named after Carmelo Anthony.

00:01:38.800 Carmelo with a K.

00:01:40.960 And it's very obvious what happened in this situation.

00:01:43.420 I actually don't even want to speak out of turn here.

00:01:45.260 Blake, I want you to give me the most pro-Carmelo argument, like strong man the Carmelo case.

00:01:54.180 Because the audience has to understand that there is a widespread movement now amongst the black community and the left to support Carmelo from GoFundMes to selling t-shirts.

00:02:05.140 It's growing.

00:02:06.020 It's not a majority of the country, but it's a disturbing minority.

00:02:09.400 I want to know, am I missing something?

00:02:11.280 I keep asking that.

00:02:12.220 Blake and I have been traveling together the last week.

00:02:14.280 I'm like, Blake, what am I missing here?

00:02:15.400 What am I missing here?

00:02:16.060 What am I missing here?

00:02:17.120 So, Blake, go through the facts that we know about Austin Metcalf and Carmelo Anthony and then all the recent developments today.

00:02:24.800 Am I missing something?

00:02:26.380 Because this certainly seems like murder.

00:02:29.500 Yeah, sure thing, Charlie.

00:02:30.680 So, first of all, this all happened, I think it started about two weeks ago.

00:02:34.540 And there was a tragic murder that took place in Texas and in Dallas.

00:02:43.440 And the situation was, initially it was young man, Austin Metcalf, stabbed to death, stabbed in the heart in an altercation with Carmelo Anthony.

00:02:52.660 And the original report was that it was over, like, a seating dispute.

00:02:57.820 What came out once we got the police report and so on was that it sounds like there was a track meet.

00:03:05.700 And Carmelo was, the description was that he was under the other team's tent.

00:03:10.220 So, they have, you know, these different tents, different booth areas for different competing teams.

00:03:13.580 And he was under the one for another team.

00:03:15.880 And we still don't really know why.

00:03:18.120 I haven't seen that reported out in detail so far, why he was maybe there.

00:03:22.580 Because it could have been he was hanging out with someone.

00:03:24.920 It could have been he was causing trouble in some other way.

00:03:28.300 We don't know the details there yet.

00:03:30.280 And then the report in the police report is that Austin Metcalf approached and said that Carmelo had to leave.

00:03:36.680 He had to get out of there.

00:03:38.020 And that he may have touched him in some capacity to say, hey, get out.

00:03:42.620 And Carmelo said something to the extent of, if you touch me again, you will regret it.

00:03:49.060 And then according to the report, it's that Austin grabbed him.

00:03:53.140 It doesn't say he, like, tackled him or punched him.

00:03:55.180 It says he grabbed him.

00:03:56.320 So, that's believable.

00:03:57.600 Like, if he was trying to say, get out, like, grab him, try to hoist him away.

00:04:01.420 And then what the account says is that Carmelo pulled out a knife and stabbed him right in the heart.

00:04:07.560 And he basically died on the spot.

00:04:09.740 He had a twin brother.

00:04:10.700 He died in his twin brother's arms.

00:04:13.620 And so this has become a, it sounds like it should just be a tragic teenage murder to me.

00:04:19.820 But it has become a big cause celeb that Carmelo, his family, put up a GoFundMe for his legal expenses.

00:04:29.500 Which I think we all agreed last week.

00:04:31.520 And I think you'd agree, Charlie.

00:04:32.660 Like, he has the right to a legal defense.

00:04:35.380 He has the right to fundraise for it.

00:04:36.740 We've seen that be an issue in the past.

00:04:39.300 But it raised many hundreds of thousands of dollars.

00:04:42.580 And I think what really caught people's attention was the lines that were being used on that GoFundMe and on Twitter.

00:04:50.380 Where it's, like, variations of that Carmelo was engaged in self-defense.

00:04:55.600 Basically because he was, he was grabbed.

00:04:58.380 And, but also these takes where it's almost like, like, Austin was disrespecting him.

00:05:04.920 Like, he, he was standing his ground because it wasn't right that anyone should tell him to go somewhere else.

00:05:10.440 Or, you know, that if he shoved him, that was somehow justifying a lethal response.

00:05:16.180 This has continued to gain steam because in the past week, a judge drastically lowered the bail requirement for Carmelo to get out of jail.

00:05:27.280 It was a million dollars.

00:05:28.560 And it was lowered to, I believe, $250,000.

00:05:31.340 Making it a lot easier to meet.

00:05:33.200 And then they made a big spectacle that he came home and they were tweeting and stuff.

00:05:37.180 You know, Carmelo is home now.

00:05:38.600 And then, that leads up to today where this is why we have a good reason to continue talking about it.

00:05:44.160 The family held a press conference.

00:05:48.360 Now, two things happened at that.

00:05:49.660 First, Austin Metcalf's father was at this press conference.

00:05:55.000 We don't really know why yet.

00:05:57.080 We're seeing B-roll on screen right now.

00:05:58.940 He showed up and the family was not, the family of Carmelo Anthony was not happy about this.

00:06:03.720 And it seems that police or security spoke to him and basically said, please leave.

00:06:09.960 And so, he did leave.

00:06:11.220 There was not a fight or anything.

00:06:13.160 And then the family proceeded.

00:06:14.580 Wait, like, nobody got stabbed?

00:06:16.660 Nobody got stabbed.

00:06:17.780 Nobody, he did not pull out a knife and use it on any of the officers.

00:06:23.800 I think that would have been frowned upon.

00:06:24.700 Nobody tried to stab Jeff Metcalf?

00:06:26.740 Okay.

00:06:27.100 No, nobody tried to stab him.

00:06:29.080 And then, this is really wild.

00:06:30.680 The family and their supporters, their attorney, or not their attorney, there was like an activist leader who was with them.

00:06:37.380 Dominique Alexander, right?

00:06:38.400 Yeah, Dominique Alexander.

00:06:39.120 They gave this address where they basically said it was highly disrespectful of Jeff Metcalf to be present at this press conference.

00:06:48.500 I mean, it was probably maybe inflammatory.

00:06:50.220 I don't know if disrespectful is the term I would use.

00:06:53.000 And then, but this is where you wanted a defense of the best steel man defense of the family.

00:06:58.000 The mother of Carmelo Anthony gave a statement.

00:07:02.520 And I think maybe we have, do we have selections from that video?

00:07:05.900 What would the number of it be?

00:07:07.040 Yeah, Dominique Alexander saying that Jeff Metcalf was being disrespectful.

00:07:11.440 No, but we don't have that.

00:07:12.200 Not that one.

00:07:12.960 Do we have of the mother kind of relaying her experience?

00:07:16.420 Because what she said was, she did say, regardless of what you feel about.

00:07:20.820 Yeah, so let's play this.

00:07:22.940 Let's play clip 326.

00:07:24.840 This is from the mother.

00:07:25.500 The lies and false accusations that have been said about us, especially over the past week, has been overwhelming.

00:07:35.400 The lies and their amplification put my family in danger, as well as everyone in our community,

00:07:42.720 everyone involved in the investigation from the police, the attorneys, and the court staff.

00:07:48.260 Our son deserves the same rights under the law that everyone is afforded to.

00:07:56.060 He's been raised in a two-parent home with structure, stability, love, and we put God first in everything that we do.

00:08:06.040 We believe in the Constitution.

00:08:08.180 We believe in the laws of this state.

00:08:10.060 And another thing that wasn't in that clip, but she says, she said, you know, regardless of how you feel about what happened with our son, she says, you know, his parents and his siblings are not responsible for that.

00:08:32.320 She said that they have a daughter who's a teenager who has been afraid to sleep.

00:08:36.640 I believe it was afraid to sleep in their own home because of that, and that's why it's been discussed that they were finding new housing arrangements.

00:08:44.360 And that's where she says she complained in there about the lies. 1.00

00:08:46.860 There have been these claims on X and elsewhere that the family immediately used the GoFundMe to buy a mansion or to, I think, buy a Cadillac Escalade and various things like that.

00:08:58.560 And they said, those are lies, and as far as I know from what I've looked in, those are not true.

00:09:03.480 They may be renting a new place, but that is what they've said they're going to do.

00:09:07.440 And there's no evidence that they, you know, bought a brand new car with money or anything.

00:09:12.520 But that has been the latest development.

00:09:15.060 But you still see these very disturbing comments on the GoFundMe or on the Gifts and Go, whichever they used, where they're saying, like, let's see.

00:09:24.580 Like, throw up $339.

00:09:26.740 Yeah, exactly.

00:09:27.580 So we have one, nobody knows what happened under that tent, but the individual's involved.

00:09:32.080 And this is Will P.

00:09:33.100 He says, since they will support theirs no matter what, I'm standing with my black brother.

00:09:38.660 And then he has that black Lives Matter fist there. 0.74

00:09:43.020 And there's 44 hearts on that remark.

00:09:45.620 So several dozen people strongly agree with that.

00:09:48.540 And there have been others to that effect over the past several weeks.

00:09:51.880 So this is very clearly becoming a racialized situation, Charlie.

00:09:56.500 And I know people want to hear what your take on it is.

00:09:58.740 Well, I think it's obviously been racialized since the beginning in the sense where you have a black perpetrator and a white victim. 0.62

00:10:07.760 We don't know if race played into it.

00:10:09.680 But you have to ask the question, like, the media coverage of this and the kid gloves and the sympathetic.

00:10:16.980 Of course, there's a racial component to this.

00:10:19.140 And it's a white kid that was murdered by a black kid for no good reason because he touched him because he touched him.

00:10:27.300 And I just want to just say this to our side.

00:10:29.840 Let's not take the bait at some of the worst actors that would love to try to start a race conflict war while Donald Trump is president.

00:10:40.840 While it's very obvious that Carmelo Anthony here committed murder.

00:10:45.420 Now, Carmelo Anthony probably won't end up spending much time in prison, maybe 10 to 15 years.

00:10:49.900 But I think it's very, very important that we just try to slow this down and allow the justice system to do its thing.

00:11:00.480 Carmelo Anthony deserves due process.

00:11:03.000 The presumption of innocence.

00:11:04.620 I'd love to hear all of what his attorneys have to say.

00:11:07.280 They got lots of legal defense money there.

00:11:09.320 And the elements involved here is so concerning because he touched him and he just takes out a knife and he starts stabbing him.

00:11:22.460 Let's play cut 336.

00:11:24.820 This is Dominique Alexander.

00:11:26.560 Play cut 336.

00:11:28.540 Black people in America.

00:11:31.300 While the current occupant sits at 1600 Pennsylvania. 0.94

00:11:35.980 Black people in America don't have to pull the race card.

00:11:41.120 It's what we live as a reality every day.

00:11:45.780 It's what we have to teach our children.

00:11:48.320 We don't want to.

00:11:50.320 But we have to.

00:11:52.880 We don't like to.

00:11:54.720 But if we want to sleep at night, we got to.

00:11:59.900 I ain't pulling no race card.

00:12:01.440 I live it.

00:12:02.120 I'm reminded all the time that I'm a black man in America.

00:12:09.400 Okay.

00:12:10.020 So he's now invoking Trump.

00:12:11.920 I have no idea what he just said.

00:12:13.460 I know the words.

00:12:14.300 I heard what he said.

00:12:15.240 I have no idea what that means.

00:12:17.280 None.

00:12:18.880 I've literally no idea what that means.

00:12:21.140 While the current occupant sits at 1600 Avenue, black people in America don't have to pull the race card.

00:12:27.040 It's what we live as a reality every day.

00:12:28.760 It's what we have to teach our children.

00:12:30.380 We don't want to, but we have to.

00:12:31.840 We all like to, but if we want to sleep at night, we got to.

00:12:34.360 This is a guy who has watched way too many Martin Luther King Jr. videos and thinks he's like the next civil rights leader.

00:12:40.180 That made absolutely no sense.

00:12:41.640 No one understands what you're saying. 0.99

00:12:43.560 You're like black people in America. 1.00

00:12:45.500 While the current occupant sits at 1600 Avenue, we don't have to play the race card. 0.97

00:12:49.700 I ain't playing no race card.

00:12:50.860 I live it.

00:12:51.540 I'm reminded all the time.

00:12:52.420 So let me get straight. 0.96

00:12:53.260 You're part of the platoon and the team representing the black kid who murdered the white kid. 0.90

00:12:59.240 And you're now trying to bring race into this and also try to bring in Donald Trump.

00:13:03.220 And this is where the Al Sharpton is the world and all these people.

00:13:06.700 Al Sharpton hasn't pounced on this yet, but they are licking their chops.

00:13:11.260 They're foaming at the mouth because they want to try to turn this into a big Donald Trump thing to try to make this a race war.

00:13:19.100 And let's not fall for that at all.

00:13:22.800 Let's slow down.

00:13:25.520 Let's internalize really what's happened here.

00:13:29.160 And yeah, I mean, my thoughts are this is a tragedy.

00:13:31.780 I keep on saying over and over again, am I missing anything?

00:13:36.200 Am I missing anything? 0.95

00:13:37.600 This is a very open and shut, clean cut case of a black kid who had a knife when he shouldn't have 1.00

00:13:43.940 because somebody touched him and he murders him in cold blood and then he dies in his twin's arms. 0.98

00:13:52.720 That's that's sick and disturbing stuff.

00:13:55.640 Is Jack with us or are we still working on the tech here?

00:13:58.980 Right here.

00:14:01.740 Jack, what are your thoughts?

00:14:04.160 Yeah, Charlie.

00:14:04.960 I mean, this is a situation where I mean, it started out as a tragedy, but it's now been turned into a circus,

00:14:13.000 really by the conduct of this individual who look, you know, I'm always one of these guys who says, you know,

00:14:20.440 don't make it about the family.

00:14:22.400 You know, let's let's leave the families out of it.

00:14:24.480 Let's just talk about the individuals who were involved in the case.

00:14:27.840 But this family advocate that, you know, whatever people want to call this guy or whatever he calls himself was hired by the family.

00:14:36.420 So this was who they chose after receiving all this money from the give, send, go.

00:14:42.680 That's, you know, going into the account there.

00:14:45.220 Huge, huge outpouring.

00:14:46.680 And suddenly it's turned into a circus.

00:14:49.580 And they say, don't make this about race.

00:14:51.580 Don't make this about race when he himself is the one making the entire thing about race.

00:14:59.100 It's it's classic cry bully ism where don't do this.

00:15:04.200 Don't do this.

00:15:05.040 Don't do this.

00:15:05.780 You see, this is all about race.

00:15:07.180 You guys are making it all about race.

00:15:08.820 So he's attacking you while doing the exact same thing he's accusing you of doing.

00:15:15.260 And I just, you know, he attacks Trump.

00:15:18.920 He attacks all, you know, the all of society, you know, says, you know, basically makes allusions to systemic racism.

00:15:26.000 You know, filming these videos as if it's some kind of documentary.

00:15:30.440 And what what he's really doing with the press conference today.

00:15:36.460 And it's just my draw hit the floor when I saw that they were doing this.

00:15:39.500 It's a classic example of Darvo and Darvo.

00:15:44.320 And I had a tweet out on this earlier today.

00:15:46.480 It's called Darvo and it's a narcissistic tactic.

00:15:52.140 But you see it happen a lot with certain types of politics typically found on the far left or in grievance politics where it goes through deny attack and then reverse victim and offender.

00:16:05.920 This is also, by the way, that they threw the father of Austin Metcalf out of the room because, of course, you cannot play the victim card when an actual victim is present.

00:16:20.200 And so not only did they, you know, kind of ironically demand that the father of Austin Metcalf move from his seat.

00:16:30.600 But when he refused to move from his seat, well, they called the police on the father of the boy who was stabbed to death and bled out in his twin brother's arms the track meet.

00:16:44.700 Yeah, I, I, I, I, you, you raised the, the, the, the crux of the point here.

00:16:52.580 Oh, and those clips were just deleted from my, my chat.

00:16:56.300 The point is here, uh, this family member, this mom actually seemed earnest in her remarks.

00:17:03.220 It felt sincere to me.

00:17:04.820 Like maybe she is a good Christian woman and listen, great parents can sometimes have wayward kids. 0.98

00:17:10.800 Okay.

00:17:11.600 That happens.

00:17:12.720 It's not always the parent's fault.

00:17:14.020 It isn't, um, I believe that they may not be guilty of anything here. 0.96

00:17:19.220 What I will tell you they are guilty of is hiring this clown named Dominique Alexander, an absolute clown show. 0.51

00:17:28.120 Um, and his, this clip, Jack, it's three, one, seven. 0.88

00:17:33.300 You guys get it ready of him basically castigating the father for showing up at this press conference is something that made my jaw.

00:17:42.880 I absolutely drop to the floor.

00:17:45.140 I couldn't believe it when I saw it.

00:17:47.040 I think it shook the internet. 1.00

00:17:48.260 This guy is a clown. 1.00

00:17:49.800 He's an imposter. 1.00

00:17:50.900 He's a fraud. 1.00

00:17:51.580 He's a con man. 0.99

00:17:52.900 This, this family is guilty so far of one thing. 0.83

00:17:55.820 And that is hiring this man.

00:17:58.600 And, and, and I absolutely judge them for hiring this man.

00:18:02.160 Now I get it.

00:18:02.660 They're disoriented.

00:18:03.600 Nobody knows what to do in a situation like this.

00:18:06.540 I can tell you one thing you don't do.

00:18:08.200 Hire this man.

00:18:09.780 We should play it.

00:18:10.480 Three, one, seven.

00:18:11.060 All I'm going to say, so it don't be asked later, is that was disrespectful and just shows you all the character.

00:18:24.980 Who was not invited, he knows that it's inappropriate to be near this family.

00:18:35.160 But he did it.

00:18:37.120 And so I say to people, actions speak louder than words.

00:18:41.160 Okay, what he has failed into is the political operatives that want to make this thing a political thing of hate, yet bigotry, and yet racism.

00:18:58.340 We have conservative operatives that have been posting nonstop about this case.

00:19:08.480 Okay.

00:19:09.640 Charlie, go.

00:19:11.160 I really don't, I really don't like this person.

00:19:13.480 I mean, I don't know really what to say that I can say, but I'll just say that this is the worst.

00:19:24.340 There's like an entire industry of people like this.

00:19:26.460 Benjamin Crump is like this, where they are just, they're, they're not just ambulance.

00:19:31.320 They're not ambulance chasers.

00:19:32.520 They are, they are crisis chasers and they get in front of the cameras.

00:19:36.280 And in fact, the media is giving this any sort of hearing the Dallas morning news family.

00:19:41.000 A Frisco stabbing suspect under attack with harassment threats, mothers say.

00:19:46.180 Oh, really?

00:19:47.280 Your son murdered somebody.

00:19:49.180 Oh, really? 1.00

00:19:50.720 And now you hire this clown to go on and on about this is racism. 0.99

00:19:54.800 This is racism. 0.98

00:19:55.800 I mean, honestly, why don't you raise a kid that knows not to have A, a knife on him at a track meet, B, not to go use that knife.

00:20:04.660 And by the way, just so we're clear, there is image after image of K. Marlo Anthony.

00:20:09.820 Carmelo Anthony, now the C, not exactly living a Boy Scout life.

00:20:15.660 Lots of images of him kind of playing into all this.

00:20:18.800 And so while there might've been a two-parent home raising Carmelo Anthony, I don't know what his parents were doing all day long.

00:20:24.260 These parents should have a little bit of contrition. 0.99

00:20:27.100 These parents should have a little bit of shame. 0.98

00:20:28.880 Like where's the shame in these parents?

00:20:30.900 Look at these images on screen.

00:20:32.600 He's got like an AK-47 with a gang sign.

00:20:35.360 This is in a nice area in Frisco, Texas.

00:20:39.780 And the lack of any self-awareness for these parents to think, yeah, we raised a murderer.

00:20:46.600 Oh, I know what we're going to do.

00:20:47.600 We're going to now go play the victim because people said mean stuff to us.

00:20:55.200 Blake.

00:20:56.940 Yeah, I'm a little more sympathetic to them just in that.

00:21:00.760 Like, I'm generally, you know, in the war between nature and nurture over the last 20 years, like, nature has kind of been kicking the butt of nurture.

00:21:09.800 And that's not the answer we like.

00:21:11.100 People like the idea that we can very strongly influence how people turn out. 0.96

00:21:15.820 But a lot of people are just kind of rotten.

00:21:19.100 And I would say, unfortunately, I suspect this kid was going to go a bad way no matter what.

00:21:27.560 They can love him.

00:21:28.580 They can support him.

00:21:29.740 But some people just are going to be dangerous and violent individuals.

00:21:34.960 And I'm also just, do I wish they were behaving a bit differently?

00:21:40.060 Yeah, I do.

00:21:40.800 I would like the idea that someone could just be properly horrified and ashamed that someone in their family did an unspeakable evil.

00:21:48.420 But one of the things about family is, is those are the people who we, like, have to generally associate with.

00:21:56.220 And they kind of do support you when nobody else will.

00:22:01.020 And sometimes that's really unpleasant.

00:22:04.900 Something that comes to mind, I think, was that creep in Idaho who allegedly murdered all of those girls at the college.

00:22:16.100 And, oh, Brian, it's where it's where I am right now.

00:22:20.440 I'm literally exactly.

00:22:21.780 Watch out.

00:22:22.240 Watch out, Charlie.

00:22:23.180 But because, you know, the real I'm watching out there.

00:22:25.780 But but I remember the family issued a statement that basically said, like, this is horrifying.

00:22:31.260 But like, he is our son and we are going to Brian Koberger.

00:22:35.080 Yeah, like we are going to do what we can.

00:22:37.740 It was like a pretty anodyne statement overall.

00:22:40.240 But they were saying, like, he is our son and we will try to support him.

00:22:43.600 And I remember, like, one of his sisters got fired from her job as a result of this because she was just related to this bad guy.

00:22:52.480 And I think most people responded with, wait, that that's a gross thing to do.

00:22:56.980 You should not punish a collective group of people for what one person did, even if it is possible.

00:23:02.600 Like, maybe there was inept parenting in there.

00:23:04.500 Maybe there was negligence in there.

00:23:06.500 That's very possible.

00:23:07.780 And I remember we were also, you know, we had the discussion here when they when they prosecuted the parents because that son, like, got a gun and then committed a shooting with it.

00:23:18.340 But that was definitely like in that case, it was definitely inept, grossly negligent parenting by the parents involved that they had a son who there were clear red flags that he was dangerous.

00:23:28.520 And yet they allowed him to, you know, obtain a weapon.

00:23:32.420 And I think we all basically agreed it's still not good to normalize, like, prosecuting parents for what their kids do.

00:23:40.940 Or at least we said if they were going to do it, it should be done equally.

00:23:43.540 But it was there was also a racial angle to that one, too, I think we thought.

00:23:46.300 But so my my general disposition, this will get me called, you know, probably a cuck by the comments or something.

00:23:53.480 But I'm not going to get really angry at the family other than, yeah, they they hired this like local activist parasite who you Google his name and you get the 2016 article where he goes to jail for breaking probation.

00:24:06.160 And it's his like eighth time in jail because he previously beat a child and done all this bad stuff.

00:24:12.200 I suspect they don't know about all of that. 0.98

00:24:15.420 They probably but like you should these people ooze their disgusting individuals. 0.99

00:24:19.960 They very obviously are. 0.79

00:24:21.300 So I wish they hadn't done that, but I will not get as angry as a lot of people do that they support their son.

00:24:28.600 People support their kids.

00:24:29.940 That is how the world is.

00:24:32.240 Well, Blake, I mean, we need to there was a graphic that just came up there. 0.56

00:24:37.140 These are all of Dominique Alexander, the real clown in this whole story.

00:24:41.640 I mean, Carmelo Anthony deserves to be, you know, criminal number one. 0.81

00:24:45.960 But criminal number two here, one B really, is Dominique Alexander.

00:24:49.940 These are all his mug shots.

00:24:51.620 Go to 329.

00:24:52.660 This is somehow he's he's also a cross dresser.

00:24:56.800 So I'm not exactly sure.

00:24:58.560 A little sugar in the tank of that photo.

00:25:00.320 Yeah.

00:25:00.680 So just to give you a smattering of this guy's rap sheet, 2009, arrested, convicted in 2011, charged with causing serious bodily injury to a child, a two year old, first degree felony.

00:25:13.640 He pleaded guilty in 2011, received 10 years of deferred adjudication probation, 2011, 2013, probation violations, violated probation terms from the 2011 child injury case multiple times, including stealing a car, check forgery and involvement in domestic disturbance, leading to a police chase in Carrollton.

00:25:36.480 2015, cited by Arlington police for offensive physical contact against a family member.

00:25:41.920 2016, sentenced to two years in prison in August 2016 for multiple probation violations and the 2011 child injury case.

00:25:50.540 2017, arrested in Denton County and on and on and on.

00:25:55.960 So this guy is a real swindler, a real con artist.

00:25:59.500 And somehow he's locked arms with this with this family. 0.95

00:26:04.440 And and so, like, while I'm tempted to be sympathetic to this mom who said they put God first.

00:26:11.180 OK, you're speaking my love language, lady.

00:26:13.000 I get it.

00:26:13.480 Like, I want to have sympathy for you.

00:26:15.340 What on earth are you doing with this guy?

00:26:17.760 How did he show up?

00:26:19.680 Where did he come from?

00:26:20.760 Is there like a Ben Crump backup, like, call center somewhere where these guys like I'll bend him, not available.

00:26:26.040 So this guy just slides right in like this is insane to me.

00:26:30.640 And the fact that they when you sit there, letting him do his thing is insane.

00:26:34.580 Revolting.

00:26:36.500 When you order Ben Crump on T-Mu, you end up with this guy.

00:26:43.280 Like the AI slot version of Ben Crump.

00:26:46.080 Yeah.

00:26:47.140 There we go.

00:26:47.860 Basically.

00:26:48.420 Yeah.

00:26:48.600 And I'm sorry, but Ben Crump is going to get involved in this.

00:26:51.080 You know it'll happen.

00:26:51.960 The family did the family didn't have to choose this guy.

00:26:55.520 They could have picked someone.

00:26:57.020 They clearly want to.

00:26:58.700 Right.

00:26:58.840 She's standing right there throughout all of this.

00:27:01.280 She doesn't.

00:27:01.580 She's she's endorsing everything that he's saying.

00:27:04.080 She doesn't get one say, hey, let's not racialize this. 1.00

00:27:06.860 In fact, it was the father of Austin Metcalfe who originally said, let's not racialize this.

00:27:15.580 Let's just make this about two individuals.

00:27:18.260 Yeah.

00:27:18.400 The day after.

00:27:19.060 The day after.

00:27:19.400 He said, I don't want to make this a race thing.

00:27:20.900 And then all of a sudden it was the family of the perpetrator.

00:27:27.020 You know, I'll say alleged perpetrator, whatever, for legal purposes.

00:27:30.660 But he admitted to it.

00:27:31.840 It was not the family of the.

00:27:33.200 That's what I mean.

00:27:34.260 He did admit to it.

00:27:35.740 So he said, it's not alleged.

00:27:36.920 I did this.

00:27:37.880 It's I'm not laughing.

00:27:39.000 I shouldn't be laughing, but it's it's just such a joke. 0.92

00:27:41.360 It's it's clown world. 0.97

00:27:42.520 This is clown world on steroids. 0.97

00:27:44.720 This family has decided to tear apart their entire community, by the way. 0.95

00:27:50.680 By the way, at one point, I think it's later in the press conference, he even he even starts attacking the school district.

00:27:58.960 I think it's the Frisco ISD, independent school district, because they're going to be expelling Carmelo.

00:28:04.480 He said, how dare you expel him?

00:28:05.840 He's only weeks away from graduation. 0.75

00:28:07.840 He stabbed a kid to death. 0.55

00:28:11.360 He stabbed a kid to death. 0.82

00:28:13.580 Right.

00:28:14.100 An unarmed teenager.

00:28:15.520 You can't reason with these people.

00:28:16.400 It's just like.

00:28:16.900 No, you cannot reason.

00:28:18.080 There's no reason.

00:28:18.840 It kind of makes you wonder, did like Ben Crump even look at this?

00:28:21.900 And he's like, nah, I'm good.

00:28:24.260 Yeah, I will say, though, by the way, I've been keeping an eye out for like.

00:28:27.560 So you see how all the high level Democrats and Chris Van Hollen are all in on this gangbanger.

00:28:34.640 Yeah, nobody.

00:28:35.640 And I've really been looking for this.

00:28:37.000 Nobody has bid on this one because they all realize, like, this ain't the one, you know,

00:28:41.980 this is this is really not the one to get into.

00:28:45.440 And yeah, there's there's no really high profile individual on the left at all.

00:28:51.000 We'll see.

00:28:52.140 You know, we'll see.

00:28:53.040 And I will certainly find it if it does happen.

00:28:55.620 By the way, as we're doing this, I believe speaking of the MS-13 guy, I believe he actually

00:29:00.800 just they just released some pictures of him meeting with, you know, breaking news meeting

00:29:05.120 with Senator Chris Van Hollen.

00:29:06.760 And so apparently he's not in the death and torture camps, but he apparently they went

00:29:13.080 and like got Margaritas or something down in El Salvador, which is pretty amazing.

00:29:18.960 So, yeah, we've seen them go all in on the gangbanger.

00:29:22.740 But no, they have not gone in on the child stabber just yet.

00:29:29.640 Now everybody's looking it up.

00:29:31.120 Yeah, he's like, yeah, no, it's it's it's it's incredible.

00:29:36.320 That guy, I guess Bukele let him out.

00:29:40.280 The whole thing's insane.

00:29:41.680 The fact they got this far is actually frustratingly.

00:29:46.100 Here, we'll put the image up.

00:29:47.760 I've got it.

00:29:48.440 Eventually.

00:29:56.920 Yeah, it's just like this is our so this is our country now.

00:29:59.640 This is the country we have to live in.

00:30:01.900 You know, each case that that comes up is, you know, we got to litigate each piece.

00:30:07.900 But yeah, there we go.

00:30:08.540 There you go.

00:30:09.020 There's a Kilmar Abrego Garcia.

00:30:13.900 And he's a Chiefs fan.

00:30:15.220 Of course, he's a Chiefs fan. 0.92

00:30:16.600 He lives in freaking Maryland. 1.00

00:30:17.960 This guy sucks. 1.00

00:30:18.800 Keep him there. 1.00

00:30:19.340 Are you kidding me?

00:30:20.600 That's the worst one.

00:30:22.100 He just follows the popular team.

00:30:25.240 No, that's right.

00:30:26.260 This guy in the El Salvador.

00:30:29.420 Yeah, the only way it would be even funnier.

00:30:32.540 Maryland dad is and and look at like the fake sincerity of this senator.

00:30:36.440 I'm surprised actually El Salvador even arranged this meeting.

00:30:40.220 I like I'm actually surprised to be perfectly honest.

00:30:42.460 Bukele posted the pictures himself on X.

00:30:44.540 I think he actually kind of broke the story.

00:30:48.720 Just just a couple of minutes ago.

00:30:51.380 So he is a citizen of El Salvador.

00:30:53.880 I hope everyone understands that he has citizenship in the country of El Salvador.

00:30:58.480 Yeah, that's not a it's not a foreign prison.

00:31:01.200 They keep saying, oh, they sent him to a foreign prison.

00:31:03.120 They send him to a foreign prison.

00:31:04.040 It's not a foreign prison for him.

00:31:06.180 That is his regular prison because he's from El Salvador. 0.96

00:31:10.360 I'll be honest domestic.

00:31:11.780 I'm surprised at the way this is developed, because I feel like the simplest way this should resolve itself is like the Supreme Court said you have to facilitate his return.

00:31:19.500 So what Trump should do is come out and say like, OK, like publicly, hey, El Salvador, are you willing to send this guy to us?

00:31:26.180 And Bukele should come out and say no, because he's an El Salvadoran citizen. 0.93

00:31:29.960 And we suspect he's a member of a criminal gang that we imprison every member of.

00:31:34.500 And they did that at the White House.

00:31:36.260 He kind of they kind of did that at the White House when he was sitting there.

00:31:38.960 They alluded to it.

00:31:40.420 But like they did not literally do that.

00:31:42.220 And I feel like that's kind of what the Supreme Court was asking them to do.

00:31:45.280 Try to get him back.

00:31:46.640 And they could send they could send the formal request.

00:31:48.860 They could have, you know, Marco Rubio's secretary like write up a little email and send it to them.

00:31:53.800 And then Bukele can come out and say, yeah, we don't you know, El Salvador does not extradite its citizens who we suspect have committed crimes so that they can avoid punishment.

00:32:03.400 And then you can say we'll investigate him for the whole MS-13 thing because there's reason to believe that.

00:32:09.780 And then they can go into that.

00:32:11.440 And then after then we can go from there.

00:32:14.340 But I think that would probably have been the best way to handle it.

00:32:16.700 But we'll see what unfolds.

00:32:17.820 This is this is pretty funny.

00:32:18.880 But this this is this is great, actually, from Naive Bukele, president of El Salvador.

00:32:24.080 He said now that he's been confirmed healthy, he gets the honor of staying in El Salvador's custody.

00:32:29.120 And so, like, which is great.

00:32:32.180 So he's basically like, you know, because and I noticed that Bukele actually retweeted Cernovich, who said there was a pernicious lie going around.

00:32:40.840 And apparently liberals were actually believing it, that he was actually dead.

00:32:44.980 So I think Naive Bukele is basically being like, OK, proof of life picture.

00:32:49.400 Obviously, he looks healthy and fine.

00:32:50.760 Now back and back in custody.

00:32:52.700 So I think that's how this is going to play out.

00:32:54.980 This is sort of Bukele calling their bluff that he's been well taken care of and is healthy.

00:33:04.580 Sipping margaritas.

00:33:05.900 Some people say that this might make him look sympathetic.

00:33:08.420 The Chiefs hat.

00:33:09.180 This guy's got no morals.

00:33:10.540 He's got no loyalty.

00:33:11.940 This guy just comes into our country and he thinks he can invade and be part of MS-13.

00:33:17.400 And you live near Baltimore and you're wearing a Chiefs hat.

00:33:20.600 You got also a Patriots jersey from 10 years ago, pal.

00:33:23.800 Do you have a Lakers jersey from the early 2000s?

00:33:26.760 And I bet you got a Yankees hat as well.

00:33:28.860 We'll send them via Federal Express to San Salvador. 0.99

00:33:32.900 He's going to be super heartbroken later on, like later this year when the, you know, the Warriors don't win the NBA title.

00:33:41.340 This is so offensive to me.

00:33:43.620 Well, so the gang information report.

00:33:45.960 Oh, I totally agree.

00:33:47.000 And I, you know, I hadn't personally heard this.

00:33:50.140 I'm not, you know, I wouldn't consider myself an MS-13 expert.

00:33:52.940 But they were actually saying that it was known within the gang locally, at least within, I guess it was the Western section of the MS-13, that the wearing of different sports teams and sports logos was to denote various symbols within the gang.

00:34:10.080 So it was like the, it wasn't that he was wearing the Chicago Bulls hat because he was a fan, but that because he was a bull and he had been given this, like, you know, this, you know, permission to wear the Bulls hat for some reason.

00:34:22.960 So I don't, I don't know if he was wearing it because he was a fan per se, but again, this would, this came out with the attorney general's office put out yesterday that not only was he a member of MS-13 and arrested with other high ranking members of MS-13, but he had a rank in MS-13.

00:34:40.960 He had a gang name in MS-13 and he was well known to other people in MS-13.

00:34:49.120 So, yeah, you've got this situation where, you know, the senator goes down there and he doesn't actually represent this guy.

00:34:57.520 He doesn't at all.

00:34:59.120 You're not a citizen of the United States.

00:35:01.280 You've never had legal permission to be in this country. 1.00

00:35:03.400 You are not a constituent of Chris Van Hollen, but I'm just going to go to show you, look, the Democrats get optics, man.

00:35:10.760 The Republicans would never do political theater like this.

00:35:13.380 Republicans don't, you know, we couldn't even get anyone to go to Fort Knox when all that was going on and where's the gold and people were asking questions about that.

00:35:20.960 The Democrats understand this.

00:35:22.780 This is going to be a huge propaganda victory for them.

00:35:26.020 The story's going to get legs for another week or so, and they're going to say, look at this, you know, this poor guy.

00:35:31.420 And, you know, he certainly looks like a, you know, a Maryland dad in this picture.

00:35:36.640 So right now I'm going to say this is a W for Democrats.

00:35:39.580 It just is.

00:35:40.700 It just is.

00:35:41.600 And it is an L for Americans.

00:35:44.900 Look at the, throw this tweet up that Naib Bukele posted, 345.

00:35:51.540 He just retweeted it.

00:35:52.820 This is Michael Cassidy, obviously the Satan slayer.

00:35:56.280 Jack will remember.

00:35:57.140 He said, imagine if Democrat senators cared about Americans as much as they do.

00:36:02.240 Yeah.

00:36:02.480 Foreign gang members who spent a few years in the U.S.

00:36:05.760 And Naib Bukele retweeted that.

00:36:08.200 So, I mean, it's clear where his sympathies lie.

00:36:13.020 But nevertheless, I think you, I mean, you might be right, Jack.

00:36:16.840 Um, and by the way, I think we've gotten better at, uh, political theater and the optics of it.

00:36:24.020 But yeah, I mean, I'm not saying, I'm not saying Trump, right?

00:36:27.360 I would say like outside of Trump, let me, let me interject.

00:36:31.620 What's so funny is that when I spend time around liberals, they think we're way better at political theater than them.

00:36:39.700 They think we're better at influencing.

00:36:41.800 They think we're better at social media.

00:36:43.960 I tend to agree with Jack.

00:36:45.220 I think they are better at this, but I mean, they, they actually, and Andrew, I think you can reinforce it.

00:36:51.040 They think we are way better than we even think we are at these things.

00:36:54.460 Would you agree with that, Andrew?

00:36:55.880 Oh, a hundred percent.

00:36:56.800 I, I have reporters calling me all the time.

00:36:58.860 They want to do all these features on Turning Point and Charlie and, and like this movement that we've built and the influence.

00:37:06.980 And I, they've even, I got a call this week.

00:37:09.500 I actually, we actually might participate in the story.

00:37:11.120 It's a fun story.

00:37:11.880 But these, uh, these, you know, uh, people have done studies on political movements and they're saying that Turning Point is the, the, the most successful modern example of building a political movement and all this kind of thing.

00:37:24.160 They think we're amazing at it.

00:37:25.760 I will tell you.

00:37:26.800 So for, for what it's worth.

00:37:28.500 We are good at that.

00:37:29.280 I totally agree with you, Charlie.

00:37:30.280 I just agree on the political feeder.

00:37:31.600 Yeah.

00:37:32.940 So here's an idea.

00:37:34.340 Here's an idea.

00:37:35.040 A friend of mine actually just gave this to me.

00:37:37.280 So the president, you have to confirm ambassadors to countries and a lot of other things, but you can have the president send special envoys.

00:37:47.540 Special envoys can be appointed without Senate confirmation.

00:37:51.120 So president Trump, he could appoint anyone as his special envoy to El Salvador for this case and say, you have to go to Bukele and make the case on behalf of the U S government for sending him back.

00:38:04.320 And you could either, you could send a Trump supporter or you could send, you could send a Democrat.

00:38:09.540 You could send anyone, send, send someone you actively want to humiliate, send them to El Salvador and say, say, make the case.

00:38:17.560 And they can go and they, and they can make the cell.

00:38:20.920 You put it on, do it in private, put it on live TV.

00:38:23.720 I don't care.

00:38:24.420 But then you can make it clear.

00:38:25.740 You know, we are, we are sending someone to, to do this.

00:38:29.440 And then, you know, Bukele can respond however he wants.

00:38:32.180 Cause he is in fact a foreign president.

00:38:34.320 He could say, yeah, I'm not going to extradite a Salvadoran citizen to a country.

00:38:39.620 He's not a citizen of, especially when we think he's a gang member.

00:38:42.740 He could say, I think that sending this likely MS 13 member to the U S would hurt El Salvador's reputation.

00:38:50.540 It would intensify the gang connections between here and America that have damaged my country so much.

00:38:56.160 He can come up with any, any number of possible things, but that's one idea for how they could resolve this.

00:39:01.660 I, I think they have a lot of ideas bouncing around right now.

00:39:09.460 Can we get like, can I just do a quick fact check?

00:39:12.140 Let's go to the next, let's go to the next topic.

00:39:13.740 Cause I, we, we, we do have some time parameters, but sorry, Andrew, go ahead.

00:39:18.080 Yeah.

00:39:18.620 Well, no, I like it's, he's a wife beater is like in his wife's own handwriting.

00:39:23.900 Like she accuses him of beating her up multiple times, bruising her, scratching her, blooding her.

00:39:29.320 Uh, he was pulled over with eight foreign nationals in the car that all claimed his address.

00:39:37.180 So human trafficking, he said they were going for construction work.

00:39:41.400 Um, he, two, two different courts said he was an MS 13 gangbanger.

00:39:46.400 Um, not exactly an upright citizen.

00:39:48.980 He'd lied to immigration court to avoid deportation.

00:39:52.060 Uh, so it, it's just, it defies all logic.

00:39:55.880 And I thought Patty Morin, Rachel Morin's mom, the angel mom from the, the, uh, press briefing

00:40:02.060 room at the white house did an amazing job where she just begged the press to tell the

00:40:05.840 truth.

00:40:06.760 Um, yeah, I, I, obviously Democrats have made some calculation that they think this is the

00:40:11.760 hill to die on, that this is the guy to fight for. 0.96

00:40:13.540 And I find it, uh, revolting, disgusting and, and scummy, candidly. 0.98

00:40:20.680 All right. 0.95

00:40:21.300 AI slop, Blake, walk us through it.

00:40:23.380 All righty.

00:40:23.840 All righty.

00:40:24.260 So AI, apparently AI gets about twice as good every 13 months or something now.

00:40:29.920 So it's getting better and better and better.

00:40:32.160 And you can use it to generate all of this, uh, original artwork.

00:40:35.600 We have, we have two concepts here that we're getting at.

00:40:37.360 The first thing we have to get to this week's big AI meme or gimmick or whatever, but it's

00:40:43.520 making action figures or like kind of toys of various people.

00:40:48.620 So we've, of course, have already had one for Trump.

00:40:51.160 We've had some for Vance.

00:40:52.200 We've had some for all the political figures, but nothing says it has to be a person in the,

00:40:57.520 in the Trump white house.

00:40:58.700 So let's, uh, let's put up three 35 guys.

00:41:01.940 We've made a, uh, the Charlie Kirk toy, the, the prove me wrong, Charlie.

00:41:08.120 And it took us a few attempts.

00:41:09.680 We had some where, can we zoom in on that?

00:41:12.360 Can we, can we, I like it now that, that, that, that, you know, it's only thing that's

00:41:16.920 missing is my lozenges and my bottle of olive oil.

00:41:21.660 Well, you've got, you've got your Starbucks cup that you've got everywhere and we've got

00:41:25.740 your hat.

00:41:28.000 And is it America first on the shirt?

00:41:30.460 Uh-huh.

00:41:33.260 All right.

00:41:33.580 I said they should put vote early on the shirt, but maybe that would be, that would be like

00:41:36.280 the period piece one.

00:41:37.360 I mean, the real one, of course, could have like five different shirts and you can realistically

00:41:41.520 change them on the little Charlie figure to, to make it better.

00:41:45.020 But we didn't stop there.

00:41:47.200 Let's put up three 34. 1.00

00:41:48.680 We made the Poso one.

00:41:50.440 We have the Poso doll.

00:41:51.680 He, he kind of looks like a little, we have his accurate phone.

00:41:56.760 We have, we have his Creed album there.

00:42:00.760 Yeah.

00:42:01.640 On CD.

00:42:02.420 Kind of like you look, you, the, the suit is pretty mad. 0.57

00:42:06.700 You have short little legs though. 0.88

00:42:08.340 My goodness.

00:42:08.780 Yeah.

00:42:08.960 It's like, he's a little, looks a little dwarf. 1.00

00:42:10.480 Yeah.

00:42:10.620 Why am I so, why is it like, why is it like midget Poso? 0.57

00:42:14.560 Yeah.

00:42:14.960 What's up with that?

00:42:15.740 Wait, go back.

00:42:16.200 Was Charlie full size Charlie or was Charlie stumpy?

00:42:19.340 I don't think Charlie was, yeah, see what you didn't do it to Charlie.

00:42:23.460 What's up with that?

00:42:26.140 Charlie, you guys got to get like a, you need, you need a coffee sponsor, man.

00:42:29.720 You can't keep repping Starbucks like that.

00:42:33.460 Oh, I know I need to get a real coffee partner. 0.80

00:42:37.240 All right.

00:42:37.840 Now what else do we have?

00:42:39.440 We have a, we made a Tyler Bowyer one.

00:42:40.940 Put up the, put up the Tyler one.

00:42:42.880 So his is not the, the, the, the action figure part is breaking down a little bit, but we've

00:42:48.600 got his aviator glasses.

00:42:50.520 We have his Phoenix suns Jersey that would not actually fit on that, on that figure, but

00:42:55.300 whatever.

00:42:55.600 And we also have his ASU hat.

00:42:58.140 Thinking about it now, we should give him that like red cowboy hat thing that we had

00:43:02.200 for the, like, was it the precinct captains during the election?

00:43:05.920 No, the big, the big red cowboy hat one.

00:43:07.720 Yeah, I know, but it was like the MAGA, MAGA version of it.

00:43:10.220 Yeah.

00:43:11.320 And then, uh, do we have, do we have an Andrew one?

00:43:13.640 Did we finish that?

00:43:14.420 All right.

00:43:17.500 We have executive producer Andrew.

00:43:19.820 We've got a, got a Dodgers hat.

00:43:23.640 Is that a, is that a Tesla at the bottom?

00:43:26.380 He's very proud of that Tesla.

00:43:28.900 And then I think that's all we made.

00:43:30.680 I don't think we made it.

00:43:31.420 Oh, dude, I can't do that.

00:43:32.620 I can't do that.

00:43:33.320 I can't do it.

00:43:33.940 I can't do it.

00:43:35.000 Nope.

00:43:36.240 What?

00:43:38.620 I can't, I can't do eating sounds.

00:43:40.380 I can't do it.

00:43:41.020 I can't do it.

00:43:41.540 Oh, it's the Lashins. 1.00

00:43:44.120 No, I can't do it.

00:43:45.840 Oh, I thought, I thought you were having a negative reaction to my, my action figure.

00:43:50.720 No, like I literally have misophonia.

00:43:52.740 So, so Jack, hold on.

00:43:53.840 Time out.

00:43:54.760 Wait, I'm not Jack.

00:43:55.580 I totally get you.

00:43:56.260 Put that away.

00:43:56.600 Hold on.

00:43:57.140 You got to put that away.

00:43:59.660 I did.

00:44:00.460 Okay.

00:44:00.940 You keep, you guys keep talking.

00:44:02.300 You got it.

00:44:06.340 What is that?

00:44:07.060 Is that, is that a guns and roses shirt?

00:44:08.800 Oh, your, your action figure.

00:44:12.680 Oh, dear.

00:44:13.680 Oh, what's that on the top, right?

00:44:18.900 I can't tell.

00:44:20.260 Oh, man.

00:44:20.860 My stuff is all tiny.

00:44:22.380 Oh, it's, oh, it's the attachable beard.

00:44:23.920 Yeah.

00:44:24.340 You can have attachable or detachable beard on my face to, to reflect what level of unkemptness

00:44:30.800 I am, which probably gets down to what, what phase of the, of the election cycle that

00:44:35.380 we're in.

00:44:35.800 No, sorry about that.

00:44:37.760 Charlie, what were you about to say?

00:44:38.860 Let's go into that.

00:44:40.640 No, it's fine.

00:44:41.300 I'm on a super delay.

00:44:42.060 It's all good.

00:44:42.480 No, I was just saying how Jack reacted to this lozenge is how I reacted secondhand smoking

00:44:48.320 marijuana for two hours yesterday with Bill Maher, of which you will see the fruit on Monday.

00:44:54.440 And so the only thing is I was not able to act the way Jack just did.

00:44:58.800 I had to, uh, still do a two hour podcast while secondhand smoking marijuana.

00:45:04.200 So all respect to you, Jack.

00:45:06.040 I put the lozenge aside and I will finish it, uh, once we are done here.

00:45:09.900 So totally Charlie's still, Oh, no, no, it's okay.

00:45:12.020 I've got the, I actually, I've got my IFB like separated.

00:45:15.100 So, uh, I don't think I can hear it now.

00:45:17.980 No, he took it out.

00:45:18.700 But now I have like the greatest, now I have the greatest answer if they ask if I ever have

00:45:22.920 smoked marijuana, I'm like, well, kind of, I kind of have, and I really don't like it.

00:45:29.240 So not on purpose.

00:45:30.440 What was it like?

00:45:30.960 How, how did it make you feel?

00:45:32.320 I've never, I've also never used it.

00:45:35.200 Um, it's not even spacey, but slow.

00:45:39.740 That's the, again, it was not a firsthand thing, but I'm very in touch with how I feel.

00:45:45.100 Andrew will tell you that if I'm feeling off, if I need something, if I'm

00:45:48.500 hydrated, I mean, I know myself very well, which by the way is very good advice for

00:45:53.080 everyone listening, know yourself, know when you need sleep, know when you need a nap.

00:45:56.760 I'm very in touch with myself.

00:45:58.620 And I remember as Bill Maher is on his like seventh thing, cigarillo or whatever of weed.

00:46:04.560 I think to myself, I'm, I'm not thinking as quickly as I would like.

00:46:09.720 I remember actually like thinking that in my head.

00:46:13.020 I noticed it too.

00:46:14.380 I was in another room watching it.

00:46:15.800 Wow.

00:46:18.020 And again, I was literally being hot boxed with Bill Maher for the record, hot boxed.

00:46:22.060 Okay.

00:46:22.440 Andrew, it was, the whole place was baked.

00:46:24.640 Okay.

00:46:25.480 And again, I, I, I did fine.

00:46:28.380 It wasn't like a triumph.

00:46:29.760 It wasn't a bad thing.

00:46:30.800 We had a good conversation.

00:46:31.900 I didn't say anything that I didn't believe.

00:46:33.840 It wasn't like it made me schizophrenic, but I know when I'm like cooking and I know when

00:46:39.020 I'm like in the flow and I am, I mean, I am so close to Bill Maher that, that the federal

00:46:46.680 regulations of airlines would not allow seats to be this close together.

00:46:50.700 Okay.

00:46:51.020 Like I am like in his lap just to give you an idea.

00:46:53.940 I mean, we, we are, we are like overlapping one another.

00:46:57.620 Go ahead, Andrew.

00:46:58.300 No, I, I just want to, I just want to have your back here, man.

00:47:01.580 I, cause like, I don't know how much I should go into, but when we will do a whole thought

00:47:08.020 crumb on this next week, I wanted to, I'm just saying though, that as a little foreshadowing

00:47:11.940 of that, I'm not even saying, listen, I'm not even saying that it's an excuse.

00:47:17.040 The way I look at it, it's like, Hey, it's the snowball, but this time it will be called

00:47:20.860 the weed bowl.

00:47:21.660 You remember Tom Brady, you know, he had the snow game where he had to just, you just had

00:47:25.040 to win it.

00:47:25.520 Uh, this will be known as the weed bowl where you just got to sometimes, you know, go on

00:47:31.020 the road and you just got to play with the conditions.

00:47:33.300 There's no excuses.

00:47:34.700 You just got to, sometimes it rains on campus.

00:47:38.540 No, yeah.

00:47:39.600 And I now have the weed moment and, uh, where I had to, I had to, I had to calculate in real

00:47:45.960 time.

00:47:46.200 Again, we're going to do a whole episode on this.

00:47:48.260 Do I walk away in real time?

00:47:52.060 Yeah, exactly.

00:47:52.840 Do I walk away and then I'll just end with this and we'll do a whole episode of this

00:47:56.420 in the future, or do I just suck it up and see what happens?

00:48:03.700 Okay.

00:48:04.480 Honestly, Charlie, every time he kept lighting another one, I just, I just sit there going

00:48:10.400 like, Oh my gosh, I can't, but like another one.

00:48:13.740 And he would just, every 20 minutes, he would wave it in front of my face.

00:48:18.500 He'd say, so Charlie, you know, I know he'd say, so, uh, it's interesting point there.

00:48:25.300 And by the way, he'd be like, he'd have it in his left hand.

00:48:28.120 And so imagine this is his, you know, this is the, this is the weed.

00:48:31.520 So, uh, so Charlie, uh, you know, so what, what, what do you, what do you think about

00:48:35.980 that, uh, you know, what was, um, so, so actually I was proud all things being equal considering

00:48:45.360 I, I get sensitive with temperature and smells in the studio.

00:48:50.640 I'm like very temperature, very sensitive.

00:48:53.740 I don't like cigarettes.

00:48:55.240 I can't stand cigar smoke and I certainly don't like weed.

00:48:59.000 So all that to be said, make sure I'll said, make sure you tune into the episode when it

00:49:03.840 drops.

00:49:05.600 Yep.

00:49:06.180 It was, it was something else.

00:49:07.720 It was something else.

00:49:08.780 You did great.

00:49:09.500 They say, uh, they say, um, that, uh, that high IQ individuals, that high IQ tends to correlate

00:49:15.560 with like, you know, these, you know, these types of like quirks.

00:49:19.740 Um, so like, you know, being really, you know, having real, you know, this issue with like

00:49:24.160 smell or having an issue with, you know, something just random sense that

00:49:28.840 sensory things that wouldn't bother like the average person.

00:49:32.520 Um, they also say that it correlates with, um, with, uh, creativity actually.

00:49:39.500 I look, I, I don't know my exact IQ.

00:49:41.980 I know it's tested not as young and it's high, not as high as Blake's I'm sure.

00:49:45.180 But I also have a very big issue with sound.

00:49:47.880 Like if there's like background noise, it drives me crazy.

00:49:50.100 If I'm trying to focus on something anyway, all that to say no excuses, you got to play

00:49:53.880 hurt.

00:49:54.140 You got to play with the flu.

00:49:54.940 You got to play with the snow.

00:49:55.900 You got to play outdoors and sometimes you got to suck it up and just go through Bill

00:49:59.540 Mars weed for nothing else, nothing less.

00:50:01.980 It makes a pretty cool story.

00:50:03.780 Wait, wait, wait, you don't like background noise?

00:50:07.980 No, no, no, no, no.

00:50:08.960 Hold on.

00:50:09.180 I don't like chaotic background noise.

00:50:11.280 It's very different.

00:50:12.120 I like if there's like a sound machine or if there's something that I have invited that

00:50:17.180 has rhythmic consistency, legit.

00:50:19.720 Classical music.

00:50:20.680 Plain.

00:50:21.520 Great.

00:50:22.060 Classical music.

00:50:22.820 But I don't like chaos.

00:50:25.220 If I'm trying, let me give you a great example.

00:50:27.140 If I'm eating at a restaurant and someone is nearby and they have a, they have a conversation 1.00

00:50:32.740 of which they're talking about something and their opinion is stupid. 1.00

00:50:36.120 That is incredibly distracting. 0.99

00:50:38.320 Like if, if like they're like next to me and they're like that Trump guy is trying to

00:50:42.660 renegotiate the trade deals.

00:50:44.040 It's I, I, I'm, I'm actually listening more to the conversation behind me than I am to the

00:50:48.860 person in front of me.

00:50:49.980 Very hard, very hard to turn off.

00:50:51.600 You don't want my brain and you don't want my brain on wheat.

00:50:54.400 I'm telling you right now.

00:50:55.180 You don't want either of those things.

00:50:57.320 What about just in general?

00:50:58.540 What if you're in a movie and like someone's talking the whole time?

00:51:03.600 Oh no, no, no.

00:51:04.340 That, that's, that should be El Salvadorian exportation. 0.85

00:51:07.360 Like that should be straight.

00:51:08.600 We should have a conversation about that.

00:51:11.380 Yes.

00:51:11.860 I'm kidding.

00:51:12.860 I'm kidding.

00:51:13.460 I'm kidding.

00:51:15.420 Wait, we have to play one more video here guys.

00:51:17.380 And then we got to run.

00:51:21.280 All right.

00:51:21.880 So this is the AI Baron Trump singing at American Idol.

00:51:26.400 This is our AS lab.

00:51:27.600 So, so the action figures were all lead up into this, Charlie.

00:51:31.800 337.

00:51:32.400 This has millions of views on like YouTube and TikTok.

00:51:44.280 He grew up working with his own two hands.

00:51:49.240 A small town boy with a big dream last.

00:51:52.440 Yes.

00:51:53.400 Millions of people just mindlessly.

00:51:55.120 He taught me love.

00:51:56.240 He taught me grace.

00:51:57.740 The lips are, there's a whole, there's a whole genre of each.

00:52:02.440 Like Baron did.

00:52:03.440 There's American Idol.

00:52:04.120 This is actually a good song.

00:52:07.600 This song is a lot better than the Beyonce.

00:52:09.780 No, so that's the other thing.

00:52:10.680 If anyone ever plays country music voluntarily, I leave.

00:52:14.120 I actually, my family and I left a restaurant recently because they were playing country music.

00:52:18.520 I said, I'm not going to pay. 0.92

00:52:19.360 This is ridiculous. 0.71

00:52:20.280 So we left. 0.97

00:52:20.700 The white and the blue, he's got a heart made of steel.

00:52:25.600 A soul full of light.

00:52:28.440 Bringing hope to the land through the darkest night.

00:52:33.560 Like by the end, the lips don't even line up with the audio.

00:52:39.240 But the sad truth is it doesn't, it doesn't matter.

00:52:41.800 You'll find if you go on Facebook, it's a wasteland of this.

00:52:45.000 Like there are entire pages that are just AI generated, you know, stories, AI generated videos, AI generated audio.

00:52:53.680 And you'll get hundreds, thousands, you know, with like the, you know, the prayer emoji and some hearts.

00:52:58.860 And oh my God, God bless our president.

00:53:01.320 And I'm just going to say this.

00:53:03.120 I'm just going to say this.

00:53:04.340 Like, I love my dad.

00:53:05.800 My dad's my hero.

00:53:07.460 But I've noticed with like him and his friends, like they, he'll run it by me, but he'll be like, is this real?

00:53:15.000 Is this real?

00:53:16.000 For like all this kind of stuff.

00:53:18.440 And it's like, it's kind of funny because it's like, for those of us who sort of grew up on the internet or, you know, got introduced to it, whatever.

00:53:26.620 Um, that we, we kind of have this general disassociation with the, like knowing what something's real and something's not, or, you know, meme culture, you know, you know, it's not real, but for a certain types of people, you know, they're just so used to like, I see it, therefore I believe it.

00:53:47.780 And there isn't, there's never that extra step of like, oh, I don't think that's real.

00:53:52.520 And unfortunately the way the algorithms work now, yes, my action figure is a hundred percent real, by the way, made not in America, but also not in China.

00:54:02.460 They are 100% made in El Salvador, actually at the prison itself by the prisoners.

00:54:10.120 It is in fact, their, uh, their punishment to have to make Jack Posobiec action figures for, for a certain subset.

00:54:17.840 And, and of course we're going to be working on, on Charlie Kirk.

00:54:20.840 Funny enough, um, the, a lot of the older women really want the Blake Neff action figure. 1.00

00:54:25.140 I don't understand why.

00:54:26.420 We should sell these.

00:54:28.140 We should totally sell these.

00:54:29.920 It'll be like a sell off.

00:54:31.380 Kelly just retweeted me.

00:54:32.520 So I'm going to, I'm going to hit him up.

00:54:33.580 I'm going to see if we can get a little, little product line going.

00:54:36.380 Yeah.

00:54:36.780 Let's give him the URL to these.

00:54:40.120 The Charlie Kirk with the arms out is pretty good.

00:54:42.860 Charlie's impressive because the way the arms are angled, I kind of think that one's probably got more of those points of movement.

00:54:48.580 Like it's one of those advanced action figures where you can bend the wrists and the elbows and you can like, you got a full ball and socket joint in the shoulders.

00:54:56.260 Like you could get some real action poses with Charlie as he saves America.

00:55:00.100 Whereas Jack and I, it's probably just like, you can like move the arm up like this to like wave to people or something.

00:55:05.140 Yeah.

00:55:05.220 We're like the old, the old Star Wars action figures where you could just like move the arms up and down and that's about it.

00:55:10.660 Yeah.

00:55:11.220 The team literally wouldn't show me mine before the show.

00:55:14.520 And I was like, why are you, why are you not showing me mine?

00:55:17.600 They, I guess they're really proud of this one.

00:55:20.600 Um, I do have denim shirts.

00:55:22.880 I don't have that Tesla, but it's not the right model of Tesla, but you know, it's hard.

00:55:26.860 It's hard.

00:55:27.160 It's hard.

00:55:27.180 That Tesla.

00:55:28.240 He says, I don't have that one.

00:55:30.500 I haven't.

00:55:31.280 Yeah.

00:55:31.560 It's not the right one, but that's funny.

00:55:34.020 Yeah.

00:55:34.600 Okay.

00:55:35.340 I mean, it looks a lot like, I got to run.

00:55:39.080 All right, Jack, I'm going to put this lozenge back in my mouth.

00:55:43.000 And with that, I'll say this lozenge will not make me feel like I felt yesterday.

00:55:49.560 Don't do weed and definitely don't do weed.

00:55:52.800 If you have a two hour podcast of high consequence with a comedian who doesn't believe in God and is a liberal.

00:55:59.680 However, with that being said, keep committing thought crimes.

00:56:03.580 Happy Easter.

00:56:04.680 He is risen.

00:56:05.540 God bless.

00:56:05.960 Don't cry, he is death.

00:56:09.020 He is death.
