Ladies and gentlemen, it is time once again for Thought Crime Thursday.
00:00:29.740
Welcome to Thought Crime IRL, where I am joined by my esteemed colleague, Andrew Colbert.

We have joined forces to do something strange and crazy.
00:01:03.820
I think we're streaming to like eight channels.
00:01:06.740
And we were like, hey, let's do something really big and crazy.
00:01:11.280
Elon Musk is going nuclear on these woke NGOs that have been smearing, lying about people,
00:01:24.660
He said the SPLC is guilty of incitement against Charlie Kirk?
00:01:46.820

00:03:00.840
I think we should probably talk about it a little bit.
00:03:06.080
And also, I definitely want to talk about censorship because we won.
00:03:13.360
That was the last crossover that you did, and here we are again.
00:03:23.380
I'm the minority here, really, out of everyone here.
00:03:28.220
Well, actually, we're in the majority right now.
00:03:33.340
Orale, Luke Grudowski, YouTube.com forward slash We Are Changed.
00:03:36.900
The SPLC has been attacking me since 2010, so I'm very happy that now we are trending towards
00:03:45.500
I mean, so what Elon Musk – by the way, this is ongoing.
00:03:50.760
Elon Musk has basically declared war on the SPLC, and he basically – so yesterday, right,
00:03:59.500
was the ADL's day, and today has become the SPLC's day, and it's so prescient, and Elon
00:04:08.080
Yesterday, we saw the FBI sever their relationship with the ADL, and a number of people, including
00:04:15.620
the great Greek – you know, he's a demigod, really – Pericles Periabasi of Chicago, who
00:04:23.620
was proudly married to a woman, by the way, alpha male.
00:04:25.900
And he dug up the fact that not only was the ADL going after Turning Point, but he dug
00:04:31.180
up the fact – and Elon has actually just retweeted this – that on the day before
00:04:35.200
Charlie Kirk was assassinated, the SPLC included him and Turning Point USA in their monthly
00:04:41.520
hate watch newsletter, and he wrote, the SPLC has blood on their hands.
00:04:50.760
And then, Andrew, you found a tweet – and this is what's so crazy – because we said
00:04:58.560
You found a tweet from someone from a couple years ago.
00:05:04.520
This was from Charlie, and the date was – I think we have this tweet, guys.
00:05:09.580
I'll – I just flagged it for them just to make sure they get – but it says,
00:05:14.160
whatever it was in the past, today the ADL is a hate group that dons a religious mass
00:05:20.160
to justify stoking hatred of the left's enemies.
00:05:24.240
I believe in the First Amendment and free speech as a principle regardless of what the
00:05:28.200
I don't want to ban anyone's speech, but the ADL has no place extorting ex-Twitter or
00:05:33.360
any other social media companies, nor should it dictate to federal law enforcement agencies
00:05:39.240
The ADL itself is America's number one purveyor of hate speech, parenthesis, and the SPLC
00:05:45.880
So for those that don't know, there are a network of nonprofits, foundations, or organizations
00:06:01.780
They accuse them of being the worst possible monsters or hateful or white supremacists.
00:06:06.120
This is used to incite run-of-the-mill default libs who don't know better, because what will
00:06:12.340
happen is you'll get some corporate news outlet, and they'll say, Jack Posobiec, comma, who
00:06:17.160
was called a white supremacist by the Southern Poverty Law Center, comma, says X. They can
00:06:22.160
inject that into articles, and then what happens?
00:06:24.380
Wikipedia editors will cite the corporate press saying, Jack Posobiec is a known white supremacist,
00:06:30.920
It's how they launder fake news, smears, and manipulations.
00:06:33.760
So when Elon is saying they incited people to murder Charlie Kirk, he is correct.
00:06:38.980
Yeah, I mean, if you look at what they are doing, it's not just smearing people.
00:06:42.960
They associate people with the KKK and neo-Nazis.
00:06:46.080
So when they started attacking me in 2010, they were able to get a group of all the We Are
00:06:50.600
Change chapters all around the world, groups that I didn't even know existed, and they're
00:06:54.780
like, okay, here's We Are Change, here's the KKK, and here's where the KKK is located,
00:06:59.880
And I'm like, what do I have to do with the KKK or neo-Nazis?
00:07:04.100
But they lumped it in, and this is where the conversation got really violent.
00:07:07.340
It started in 2010, and then they started to do a patriot hit list, and they put me on
00:07:12.160
there, they put Ron Paul on there, they put Alex Jones on there, and they said, watch out
00:07:17.020
And then they went to federal and local law enforcement, and they said, keep track of these
00:07:23.340
In 2018, they officially partnered with YouTube.
00:07:26.640
In 2019, they officially partnered with PayPal, and they censored individuals who had different
00:07:32.660
All I was doing is raising questions and asking questions about 9-11, working with family members,
00:07:37.620
but that was somehow equated to being a neo-Nazi and working with the KKK.
00:07:44.300
So you mentioned 2010, and here we are, it's 2025.
00:07:47.080
In 2014, do you know who the SPLC added to their extremist hate watch list?
00:07:59.500
The sweet, you know, I remember him, you know, at the memorial just ranting and raving,
00:08:09.460
It was because, you know, here he comes in as a Christian.
00:08:12.460
He was standing in defense of traditional marriage, which, of course, is a core Christian
00:08:17.260
belief of just very basic Christian belief about marriage.
00:08:22.020
And they named him an extremist because of this.
00:08:24.240
So to your point, and this is 100% right, they can just basically willy-nilly label anybody,
00:08:30.160
And then you mentioned, Tim, that they launder this through.
00:08:33.640
So go ahead and I just today, because I was Googling it, I was like, Charlie Kirk, SPLC.
00:09:17.540
Wait, why did you start wiggling when that song came on?
00:09:21.900
I changed their hate watch list to enemies of the leftist revolution, just so that, you
00:09:27.280
know, people understood what they were actually trying to say.
00:09:44.560
And it's Charlie Kirk, white supremacist, dead at 31.
00:09:54.940
You look at it, and it's like, oh, oh, oh, a cornerstone of supremacist logic, and they
00:10:04.280
And by the way, this has been seen, I guess, 30,000 times about.
00:10:13.420
Elon Musk gave me a retweet tonight, or a quote tweet.
00:10:17.420
And by the way, thank you to Elon, seriously, for taking on this fight.
00:10:31.140
And I just got to say thank you on a personal level as well, because David Sachs had tweeted
00:10:35.940
a thread out earlier today saying that, look, when you Google Stephen Miller, the very first
00:10:43.300
If you Google Jack Posobiec, the very first thing that comes up is the SPLC.
00:10:48.500
And there's no rhyme or reason for this whatsoever.
00:10:52.860
It's not like people are linking back to it, but it's always there.
00:10:55.640
So Elon not only tweeted it out, he also put in the comments, he CC'd Sundar Fichai,
00:11:02.000
the CEO of Google, and is like, what's going on?
00:11:05.080
Well, I mean, listen, if ever there is a time to get vehemently pissed off about this
00:11:12.620
The man who should be sitting in this chair right now, tonight.
00:11:16.400
And I can't tell you that the assassin read the SPLC hate map article about Turning Point
00:11:25.520
But what I can tell you is that it contributes to an ecosystem of radicalism.
00:11:31.480
And Tim, we talked about this on your show earlier this week.
00:11:36.880
You can, yes, the assassin is personally responsible.
00:11:39.600
But it is a they because it's part of an ecosystem of radicalization.
00:11:43.520
And you're seeing it in the polling where 30% of, what, progressives between the age
00:11:49.440
of 18 and 39 believe that violence is totally justifiable politically.
00:11:56.300
Do you, it's often described very interestingly, you know, what, what is the left and the right?
00:12:01.040
And you can be a, you take a look at some of these people in the space.
00:12:09.460
And they call him right wing or far right because he's not in the cult.
00:12:12.960
So when you see AOC on the House floor disparaging and smearing Charlie Kirk, she is proselytizing
00:12:22.480
She is giving a sermon to her fake non-theistic religion or to this non-theistic religion.
00:12:29.500
They, when you go to their meetings, their protests, they say, respect the diversity of
00:12:35.860
What that means is we are all part of one movement.
00:12:38.720
And here's the real secret, what they're actually saying, they'll go to you and say,
00:12:44.480
The other activists that come here and want to find out, find a way to change the world
00:12:48.720
may not agree with you, but we're fighting for the same cause.
00:12:52.160
What they're not telling you, those guys over there work for us.
00:12:55.320
They're telling you, you don't have to feel bad about the violence they commit.
00:13:01.460
Maybe you guys know this, but did the FBI cut their ties with the SPLC?
00:13:05.500
Because they've been working with them for an extremely long time.
00:13:08.320
And if there ever was a time and opportunity to cut ties with the SPLC, it is now.
00:13:13.380
That is one of the action items that we're calling for.
00:13:16.880
We're calling for Amazon Smile and any other federal law enforcement or any of these organizations.
00:13:22.720
But we should take it further, not just to stop working with them, but I want disclosures.
00:13:27.560
I want to know who the ADL was working with on the FBI with to spy on what commentator,
00:13:33.820
on what personality, what work were they doing?
00:13:36.400
And if Cash Patel is listening, I hope he does full disclosures, not just cutting off the ties.
00:13:40.620
And believe it or not, so when everyone remembers the huge scandal for Catholics that the SPLC,
00:13:48.660
or excuse me, that the FBI was surveilling and investigating and infiltrating Catholic groups
00:13:57.020
that were, you know, praying the rosary a little bit too hard and how it was completely insane.
00:14:02.760
That operation was shut down when Cash Patel got in, thank God.
00:14:06.140
But one thing that people missed, and Elon actually just quote-sweeted me
00:14:10.360
because I was pulling out some of my old reporting,
00:14:11.960
that investigation was predicated on an SPLC report about Catholics.
00:14:18.620
So they used an SPLC article as a, quote-unquote, what Luke is saying here is 100% correct,
00:14:24.500
and this is just a very famous example, that people have to understand where this stuff comes from.
00:14:29.860
So the SPLC writes the article, then the FBI sees it and says,
00:14:35.080
then they get approval to start infiltrating Catholic churches.
00:14:37.500
And spying and tracking and doing all these illegal things.
00:14:44.880
Recently polled Apple TV show about online hate group researcher was inspired by ADL's anti-extremism work.
00:14:58.440
Apple TV's polled series starring Jessica Chastain was based on ADL's researcher tasked with monitoring online hate networks.
00:15:07.440
The show originally scheduled to launch at the end of September was postponed.
00:15:09.800
The New York Times reported that it came after the assassination of Charlie Kirk earlier this month.
00:15:15.020
This show was basically a girl boss, liberal cultist wet dream where she goes online and LARPs
00:15:23.280
and then uncovers plots from white supremacist groups and then they go and break them up.
00:15:29.960
When the show got canceled, or it's pulled, suspended, who knows, maybe it'll come back.
00:15:33.800
Jessica Chastain then went on Instagram and gave this long tirade about the extremism on both sides.
00:15:40.760
You know, the right did this and the left did this.
00:15:42.840
It's more important than ever that we have a show like this on the air.
00:15:50.720
They create a movie about the ADL so that people who don't know better think this is what life is like.
00:15:58.820
And I will stress to you guys, I know there's a lot of people watching right now.
00:16:03.340
That's why you're watching our show, Thought Crime, all these shows.
00:16:07.860
But there are many people in this country that think the world is like movies.
00:16:11.080
Why do you think liberals want to ban silencers?
00:16:25.820
Well, and Tim, not only that, but, and we still haven't gotten, I'd love to get, by the way, like a media screener of this or something.
00:16:31.740
Because they pulled this show, and Andrew, I think you remember, it was like the day after Charlie died.
00:16:37.880
It was one of the first things that we saw, and no one had been talking about this show.
00:16:41.040
There had been like a meme about it, but nobody, like certainly, obviously, we weren't in a place to think about shows.
00:16:47.800
Nobody thought there was any connection between that show and Charlie Kirk.
00:16:52.340
But do you remember, okay, so this is a theory that's gone out since then about this show specifically.
00:16:57.540
Do you remember, and Tim, I know we talked about the other night, the Groyper hoax that was spread by so many on the left up to, and including, in a sense, Jimmy Kimmel.
00:17:07.820
That a Groyper had been the one pulling the trigger to shoot and kill Charlie.
00:17:12.980
Well, so many people were tweeting that out, that the theory was that perhaps a screener of the savant had gone out.
00:17:20.260
And what if that was a plot that had actually been in there, and that's where they all got the idea from.
00:17:27.540
Just like South Park, because they were saying, oh, wait, they're like, it seemed like they were really scared about something in that show.
00:17:41.340
They have to have a disclosure in the beginning saying this is not a real life event.
00:17:48.240
And it was about a tech billionaire who was concerned about climate change.
00:17:52.020
He had produced fake meat and was trying to get people to eat it because he wanted to reduce carbon emissions.
00:17:56.760
He secretly worked behind the scenes to create a pandemic scare so that he could get the government to force vaccinations on people,
00:18:04.540
thinking it would vaccinate them from this pandemic, but it sterilized them instead.
00:18:18.460
Well, there's some kids watching and it might not be the best and the most appropriate thing.
00:18:39.040
but there is an individual with knowledge of the plot who wrote a comic book,
00:18:48.040
So the idea is if you get a copy of this comic book, Utopia,
00:18:52.060
you will know the plan the elites have for the world.
00:18:56.980
I mean, for us, we just have a TV show on Amazon about elites.
00:19:02.180
It's totally not connected to anything that's going on in the world.
00:19:09.500
a couple years ago, there was a terrorist-inspired event
00:19:15.920
in order to shoot up the Family Research Council.
00:19:19.020
A lot of people forget that they not only put people on hit lists,
00:19:23.620
but they were the inspiration for a terrorist attack before.
00:19:27.620
So what Elon Musk is talking about right now is of critical key importance.
00:19:34.760
He needs to provide us information, what's happening behind the scenes,
00:19:37.880
what was really going on, and why was federal police hijacked
00:19:41.920
by these leftist woke institutions that literally put us on hit lists.
00:19:46.280
I was there since 2010, and I remember seeing this terrorist attack,
00:19:49.120
and I'm like, I'm on that list that this lunatic looked at.
00:19:54.020
And I'm like, they just, they're literally attacking me.
00:19:56.280
And I tried to reach out, and they actually contacted me,
00:19:58.900
and they're like, you know, we'll give you the benefit of that.
00:20:14.900
and then wrote an article talking about how I was a violent extremist.
00:20:18.440
When I never even said any of those things I did,
00:20:22.780
and then put me on this target list that radicals use to kill people.
00:20:28.240
but this reminds me of, I want, in one instance,
00:20:31.540
tried to work in good faith with a certain SPLC person.
00:20:44.800
Because they were reaching out to turning point for like an official blah, blah, blah.
00:20:47.900
Yeah, well, no, yeah, and it was obvious explanations for the questions he was asking.
00:20:52.640
We built timelines, I explained all this stuff,
00:20:58.680
and, like, put the timeline out that showed very clearly.
00:21:04.740
So I tried to do it, and then the thing came out,
00:21:11.940
So in 2018, an article was put out by the SPLC, which included me.
00:21:16.840
It was written about a bunch of people who are, I guess you'd call them lefties, progressives.
00:21:23.240
And it was called The Multipolar Spin, How Fascists Operationalize Left-Wing Resentment.
00:21:32.460
here's a spattering of people who are on the left, but they're secretly fascists.
00:21:43.240
They called me alt-right on mixed race, as everyone knows.
00:21:46.840
And they said that I had gone to Iran for a Holocaust deniers conference.
00:21:56.200
And their source was an archive of a since, at the time, the website had been deleted.
00:22:03.540
It was some blog in Iran from some Holocaust denier who wrote a thing claiming I had been to Iran, which was made up.
00:22:15.660
Because my challenge to them was, if you want to claim that I'm an alt-right guy who went to Iran for a Holocaust deniers conference,
00:22:24.480
I have no problem having you go to court and tell a judge your source is a conspiracy theory website from Iran that was deleted.
00:22:36.260
Not to mention, you know, when they went after Max Blumenthal, he was like, I'm going to call my dad.
00:22:58.900
Appropriate with that sombrero and a mustache and beard.
00:23:17.080
Why are we all talking like this for some strange reason?
00:23:19.120
Well, because I ordered guac for the office, and we got really excited.
00:23:30.020
I was like, hey, guys, instead of doing the show like normal, make Jack do the work.
00:23:36.920
When they delivered the guac, they just asked if we played the music.
00:23:43.620
But the thing is, I don't like guac, so I kind of just let it sit there and turn, like, brown or whatever happens.
00:23:56.740
What do you think about the fact that Elon Musk has just picked up the baseball bat and is just, like, beating down the Poverty Palace, which, by the way, that's, Tim, do you know that's what they call the SPLC's headquarters, the Poverty Palace?
00:24:14.220
Yeah, we should, by the way, guys, we've got to get a picture up of, I should have said this before.
00:24:20.760
We have got to get a picture of the SPLC's headquarters.
00:24:28.520
They live in a giant glass house, and yet they throw stones.
00:24:33.620
Isn't it funny the names they choose for these organizations, though, the Southern Poverty Law Center?
00:24:37.740
It makes people think that it's, like, a liberal welfare organization that does legal work for hungry children.
00:24:46.100
It's exactly named so that people will think that it is, like, a 50s, 60s-era, like, civil rights organization.
00:24:53.980
Like, the, what was, MLK's group was, like, Southern Christian Leadership.
00:25:00.420
Yeah, I think it was founded in 1970 or so, and then it just immediately began its direct mail campaigns to scam neurotic housewives out of their money.
00:25:08.420
We had an event in Jersey several years ago that it was called, I forgot what it was called, but it was, it was called something, I forgot the name of it, but we, the subheader was Ending Violence, Racism, and Authoritarianism, and Daryl Davis was our headline speaker.
00:25:24.840
And literally, it was, I guess I would liken it to a centrist-type, you know, debate on morals.
00:25:35.840
Antifa called it a white supremacist event and threatened to burn the theater down.
00:25:38.820
And I'm like, it's literally called Ending Racism, Violence, and Authoritarianism.
00:25:43.980
And, and Blake, so you mentioned, you mentioned the scamming.
00:25:46.160
There have been, there have been liberals who have, oh gosh, here's the picture.
00:25:56.220
It looks like you could hit a button and it would like transform into something that does battle.
00:25:59.800
So their endowment currently, according to their 2024 release, is almost 900 billion.
00:26:12.940
900 billion, that'd be like, no, no, no, I was thinking in my head, it's almost a billion.
00:26:18.340
So just under a billion dollars they've raised through these scams.
00:26:21.740
And there have been liberals and leftists and even, even communists like the people over at Current Affair that have, have come out and said, yeah, this is obviously a scam.
00:26:33.400
What they're doing is they're claiming that they're doing all this work to fight the hate when essentially all they're doing is targeting people for hate.
00:26:41.860
And then shaking down, again, like like like old liberals for money.
00:26:54.260
I think 30 million, according to Tyler O'Neill over at Daily Signal, is is is sent down to the Cayman Islands for tax purposes as a tax haven right now.
00:27:06.760
Yeah, very southern, extremely southern in the in the Gulf of America.
00:27:09.580
So when you look at this, it's it's so ripe, not just for, by the way, federal investigation for wire fraud and mail fraud, because anything you do by mail is, of course, federal.
00:27:20.560
But Alabama, it is the reddest of the red states.
00:27:25.320
And yet they sit right there in Montgomery, Alabama, in their poverty palace, and no one does anything.
00:27:34.680
So on the on the side up here there, we have MSNBC playing.
00:27:40.240
MSNBC is literally running an SPLC ad right now.
00:27:48.960
As we're talking about this and help help fight hate, they say fight hate.
00:28:00.360
That only looks like one of those that people think is just feds faking it.
00:28:06.440
You know, what's really interesting is that all of the good people...
00:28:11.260
Did you notice that in the commercial, all of the good people were black?
00:28:18.560
Then it showed the Patriot Front, a bunch of white guys in masks.
00:28:24.940
Is that who they're trying to fundraise off of, I guess?
00:28:34.620
So, yeah, the people can't see it because it's off screen, but we have a video wall here
00:28:38.740
that just shows, you know, pretty much all the cable news channels and the one that was
00:29:47.100
This is how big they are, that MSNBC is just running this stuff all the time.
00:29:54.180
And, by the way, so, Blake, talk to me about the current demographic of an MSNBC primetime viewer that they're trying to target.
00:30:02.380
So, the current demographic of an MSNBC primetime viewer, I'd say median viewer is probably, what, 75 years old?
00:30:09.660
It's very aged people who watch these left-wing cable primetime shows.
00:30:15.000
And they basically, like, need to, like, constantly bombard them with fear porn.
00:30:21.400
Like, if you read the direct mailers, too, that SPLC does, it's just very funny because they're basically trying to find, you know, rich or upper-middle-class housewives and being like, hey, remember the Holocaust?
00:30:32.460
It's about to happen again if you don't donate to the SPLC's poverty palace.
00:30:41.080
They're always like, oh, this last year was, this is a barn, but this is a record-setter in hate.
00:30:47.740
And this is why, though, this is why they've, and Tim, you know, this is why they have to expand the aperture because there's a supply and demand issue to the point where Charlie Kirk, right,
00:30:59.040
the guy who's never raised a hand in anger, who just wants to have dialogue and campus debate, gets ensnared in it.
00:31:10.320
If we made something comparable, we called it the Northern elitist, you know, law directive.
00:31:16.040
Yeah, if we were saying Code Pink were a bunch of crazy radicals, like, and saying that they're extremists that are going to hurt people.
00:31:22.820
They're still entitled to their opinion, and they're mostly nonviolent.
00:31:25.920
And they do things, you know, pretty peacefully, and sometimes I agree with them, actually.
00:31:30.520
Sometimes I absolutely disagree with them, but there isn't an effort to try to, yeah, they're anti-war people.
00:31:36.020
If there was an effort to label them terrorists, I mean, that would be a little bit extreme.
00:31:40.060
I'm just saying the right doesn't have anything comparable where we create a fake organization with a fake name and then trick people into giving over tons of money.
00:31:50.700
The right doesn't just sit there and go, oh, my gosh.
00:31:53.060
Like, we don't make these crazy comparisons and say, you know, you remembered this thing from 85 years ago.
00:32:00.540
It's about to happen again if you don't give us money right now.
00:32:03.720
Like, you can go and look at, again, so, I mean, like, Turning Point USA, right?
00:32:13.380
You know, go look at a Turning Point fundraising drive.
00:32:16.060
It's like, we're going to teach people about the Constitution, and we're going to talk about the Bible and talk about how great America is.
00:32:28.800
That was the centerpiece of everything that Charlie did.
00:32:37.140
This is an Antifa guy who dumped red paint at the ICE facility in Portland, and he found out.
00:32:46.860
You can see here on the left this obese young man being arrested.
00:32:51.320
And then what do you think his reaction was once he was actually in the facility?
00:32:57.900
No, he's shivering in fear and pleading for his life, terrified, because he thought he was playing a game.
00:33:05.200
He's shaking and terrified, begging for forgiveness.
00:33:10.420
It's just, you know, he's just sitting there shaking, terrified.
00:33:13.460
These people that go out, they create the shield for the terrorists to hide in the bushes and shoot like we've seen in the past.
00:33:27.900
This dude, he doesn't look like he wants for anything.
00:33:34.080
I think I'm happy to see ICE going to these extremist groups and having real law enforcement explain to them.
00:33:46.120
Well, I think I'd want to see what all he did, though.
00:33:59.080
And then all your friends can say, where did Enrique go?
00:34:04.640
Because he was attacking federal law enforcement officers.
00:34:18.560
There's some pros and cons in the weight of this.
00:34:20.640
And actually, I think it'd be great if you guys want to chime in a second.
00:34:24.260
Can we throw up the original picture of him again, guys?
00:34:29.360
The original picture of when he had his hands up there.
00:34:34.040
Because when you see the red paint, it's very clear that they quite literally caught him red-handed.
00:34:48.140
If you were doing, if you've got disorderly conduct, what do you get?
00:34:52.540
If that, you get a slap on the wrist and a fine?
00:35:00.080
What you're seeing in that video, though, is likely what they call shock of capture.
00:35:03.780
So a guy who's been arrested before probably isn't going to react like that.
00:35:08.220
This looks to me like some chubby loser with no purpose who thinks he's playing a game.
00:35:16.520
I don't think it's effective to throw him in lockup for a year because that could actually radicalize his friends.
00:35:22.440
One of the strategies the far left uses is to intentionally get stupid people arrested to then radicalize them because they'll tell you it wasn't the punishment excessive.
00:35:30.940
So you've got to find that happy medium where his friends will be like, I don't want to go to jail for a month.
00:35:35.400
But he gets out in time to where it's not like he was disappeared or anything.
00:35:39.040
During a lot of these protests, what Antifa will do is they'll tell the average person, show up, stand here, wiggle your arms, and chant.
00:35:46.740
They'll then tell their – they color code it.
00:35:49.520
They'll tell the direct action group, that's what it's called, go in the middle of that crowd and throw a brick at a cop.
00:35:54.360
What happens then is these dumb college kids who have no idea what's going on are standing there derping around.
00:36:04.920
Once these people, these college kids who have no idea what's going on, end up in jail, they're panicking.
00:36:14.220
They'll then have the direct activists, the direct action crew, be in jail and get arrested too intentionally and say, don't worry.
00:36:32.680
Write it on your arm, and we'll make sure you're safe.
00:36:37.520
So with that being said, what if we put them away for 10 years?
00:36:43.240
His family will get radicalized, and his friends will get radicalized.
00:36:46.600
So I'm not thinking about this in terms of the emotional satisfaction.
00:36:50.260
If the Antifa terrorists who know what they're doing and organize, 10 years, agreed.
00:36:56.140
So by the way, have you ever heard the categorization of these various groups that you're talking about within the black block, the colors?
00:37:08.000
So the green, yeah, the greens are the ones who just kind of like march around.
00:37:13.640
Then the yellows are your organizers, your leaders, your directors, managers.
00:37:18.420
And the yellows, by the way, travel around highly organized.
00:37:21.800
We were talking about it the other night on Teamcast Proper that they are highly organized and clearly financed.
00:37:34.380
And when I would infiltrate Antifa events like prior to the attack on the deplorable in 2017 at Trump's first inauguration, they would move someone around.
00:37:44.740
And they would say we would have like 200 people in a church basement.
00:37:48.660
And they would say, okay, anyone who's interested in direct action, we're going to go over here into another room.
00:37:54.080
But if you're interested in that, come on over here.
00:38:00.020
But those are the ones that are going to commit actual violence.
00:38:03.400
And so the green group is the doofy college kids who have no idea what's going on.
00:38:13.520
And so they tell the direct action group, we need to get these people arrested, as many of them as possible.
00:38:18.180
So you might see a flyer at a college and it's like, come march for this social injustice.
00:38:22.700
And what the actual plan is, is there's going to be three guys who wear all black and masks.
00:38:32.100
They're going to go up to a cop, hit them or throw a water bottle or something to get you arrested intentionally so that you're terrified because they know the machine is cruel.
00:38:43.140
But when you get arrested, the cops are like, don't know, don't care why you got arrested.
00:38:56.660
And then come meet us next Saturday and we'll explain everything to you.
00:39:05.880
I would just say if they want to get radicalized because they're like, you know, faffoing and then they get radicalized and they do something more radical.
00:39:15.080
I don't care about filling up a prison with 50,000 of these freaks.
00:39:18.020
But what I'm saying is this guy's roommate gets radicalized and you're making more protesters.
00:39:25.480
What matters is if you're doing criminal stuff, if you're attacking cops, if you're destroying buildings, that instead of getting a slap on the wrist, that you are getting, oh, sorry, you're like an insurrectionist.
00:39:36.680
You're going to prison for the rest of your youthful life.
00:39:37.660
This is a mentality that's led to the collapse of a bunch of countries because what the last does.
00:39:42.320
Well, so I'm not talking about them going running up gangs and arresting them and putting them in prison.
00:39:47.020
These are known gang members who are terrorizing communities.
00:39:50.500
This is a doofy, chubby kid who has no idea what's going on in the world who threw paint on the ground.
00:39:55.120
And he's got a bunch of friends who are also doofy morons who have no idea what's going on in the world.
00:39:59.060
I'm not talking about letting a guy who smashes a cop car go.
00:40:02.400
I'm talking about the moron chubby guy who's never been arrested before, never had a job, showing up to what he thinks is a playground for LARPing.
00:40:08.120
And then when you guys say lock him up for a year or longer, Antifa is like, yes, we tricked them into radicalizing more people that are going to fundraise on our behalf, that are going to make money for us and sustain us.
00:40:20.520
You have to be strategic in how you handle their traps.
00:40:23.720
So if a guy shows up with a gun, you arrest him.
00:40:26.160
If a doofy, chubby guy shows up, you say, this guy, I said a month.
00:40:33.400
He'll get out in a month and say, I'm never doing that again.
00:40:35.540
And his friends will be like, dude, I don't want to go anywhere near that stuff.
00:40:37.440
No, but couldn't he also just get out in a month and say, I'm going to go do it again?
00:40:41.420
No, not the doofy retards who don't know anything about politics.
00:40:45.380
He showed up because someone at his school said, do you want to come hang out after school?
00:40:51.680
And they said, you know, the immigration thing.
00:40:59.240
He's in college, presumably, or at least college age.
00:41:13.660
OK, so if Antifa is setting radicalization traps and this guy.
00:41:22.720
Criminal damage to federal property is, I think, a class A misdemeanor, which has a maximum of a year in jail.
00:41:29.260
So for a guy who's on a first offense and is a doof, I say a month in jail.
00:41:34.620
I'm not talking about playing him down to community service.
00:41:38.140
If you give him the maximum penalty right away, I wonder if it's a federal.
00:41:42.360
We've talked about, like, you know, three strikes laws in general for, like, you know, habitual criminals.
00:41:47.280
But I wonder if you could do something like actually specifically dedicated for sort of antisocial rioting.
00:41:53.240
Or maybe it is first offense, as you say, maybe a month, maybe even two weeks.
00:41:56.680
But then it's, like, your second one, it, like, radically escalates.
00:42:01.360
And at your third offense for, like, specifically disruptive rioting type stuff, even if it's what would normally be misdemeanor stuff.
00:42:08.560
Once we're saying, oh, you're just a person who always is going out and, like, starting stuff with cops and attacking federal facilities.
00:42:19.060
So my point is, when you see it, Antifa is hoping to recruit stupid people who don't know what's going on.
00:42:25.740
And so my view is, agreed, we want to wipe out Antifa.
00:42:31.380
One of the things they would talk about in these direct action meetings, this is what the activists would say to you.
00:42:38.120
What would happen if you stood in the street and held up a sign and blocked traffic?
00:42:51.860
What happens tomorrow after the cops arrest you for blocking traffic?
00:42:55.640
Ten more protesters show up angry that you got arrested.
00:43:02.280
So during Occupy Wall Street, Tony Bologna, Anthony Bologna, pepper sprayed four women, and he created Occupy Wall Street.
00:43:10.900
There were about 1,000 or so, maybe not even that many people.
00:43:24.500
An NYPD cop walked up, and he smiled and said, he's like, God bless y'all, and he left.
00:43:34.660
When people get off work, they're going to come.
00:43:36.320
That weekend, there was a couple hundred people who started to march down the street.
00:43:39.860
The police said, we're going to stop this march.
00:43:43.420
And they did what's called kettling and wrapped an orange net around them.
00:43:46.160
Four young women, and you can watch this video on YouTube, stood.
00:43:51.620
Anthony Bologna, who was a, I think he was a captain.
00:43:54.920
Walked up to him for no reason, and sprayed their faces.
00:44:00.640
It was the fastest viral video in the history of YouTube at the time.
00:44:06.080
That video created something like 30 or 40 occupied chapters across the country, and sparked
00:44:20.380
Another really great example is, they have a video where it's a white shirt in New York
00:44:26.380
swinging a baton wildly, and they CGI'd it to be a lightsaber.
00:44:31.320
And then they said, the police were beating, like, ha ha, look, we made a meme.
00:44:37.360
The full video shows the occupiers attacking the cops, then pulling back real fast.
00:44:42.540
So when the cops respond with the attack, they can get a video of Antifa going like this
00:44:47.140
Which is exactly what that ICE agent was in recently, where the woman looks like she's
00:44:56.240
Because she had attacked him, and there's like 20 minutes of her just attacking him.
00:45:02.400
So Antifa will hit a cop, and then immediately four people will put their hands up.
00:45:07.680
So when the cops start trying to arrest them, they can start the video at Antifa going like
00:45:12.860
Look, I mean, information warfare propaganda, that is going to be part and parcel of this.
00:45:24.500
The left is waiting for their ICE George Floyd.
00:45:27.140
And if they have it, it's going to be their major rallying call.
00:45:34.160
I don't know what this kid did with the paint, but it looks like there are some people who
00:45:37.840
poured red paint on the sidewalk, and then they were putting it on their hands, and they
00:45:41.860
were like, look at the blood on the hands that ICE has.
00:45:44.140
And if this kid did that, I mean, it's not as egregious as throwing red paint on an officer
00:45:51.480
And I think we have to be super careful not to fall into the trap of the left.
00:45:55.260
And Saul Alinsky, who talked about this extensively, who sets up these traps for us in order to
00:46:04.600
But at the same time, we've got to be respectful of people's civil liberties and the Constitution
00:46:08.760
Right, but you don't have a civil liberty to be a member of a terrorist group, which Antifa
00:46:13.360
And what I would say, though, is in addition to all of this, when we're talking about there
00:46:18.320
needs to be a huge focus on the yellows, because when you work with the networkers, the trainers,
00:46:23.620
the recruiters, the people who are actually behind these mass movements, their ability to
00:46:31.520
So I'm not saying this is the only thing you do, but obviously it's going to be in tandem
00:46:36.720
with those same operations going against the higher-ups.
00:46:42.740
Some doofy college kid who has no idea what's going on.
00:46:44.780
You want to be careful about how you interact with them, because they're hoping you do so
00:46:53.900
These are the facilitators and the organizers of this who plan how everyone's going to go
00:46:57.760
This is a thing where Congress could actually do something.
00:47:01.760
What's not really well known, RICO was passed to go after the mob.
00:47:06.880
There's sort of, and when you read the RICO statute, the federal one, it basically says
00:47:11.300
you need predicate crimes to go after organizations.
00:47:14.380
And the predicate crimes they list are things the mob would do.
00:47:17.960
And as a result, inciting a riot is not one of them.
00:47:20.940
Yeah, it's drugs, it's homicide, it's involvement in those.
00:47:24.040
So conspiracy to incite a riot is not something that's covered under RICO in current law.
00:47:31.160
You know, all I'm going to say is, to change it, you would just need some sort of national
00:47:36.020
legislative body that was perhaps controlled by your party to pass a modification of that law.
00:47:43.960
But I don't know where we're going to get one of those.
00:47:47.080
So Tim, what he's saying is the RICO statute does not include inciting a riot.
00:47:56.880
I'm talking about people organizing criminal action.
00:47:59.320
So that's what we mean, though, is you can't use RICO.
00:48:02.780
You can't use RICO against people who are part of organizations that launder money internationally.
00:48:09.380
But laundering, the thing is, is when you say launder money, like they're laundering money for
00:48:14.640
And the criminal enterprise is to enable and further civil disorder in the United States, to like
00:48:21.980
Like most of their monetary stuff, like they frankly don't need to launder a ton of money
00:48:26.640
because they're not getting the money through criminal means.
00:48:28.700
They're just getting rich idiots to donate money to them.
00:48:34.340
It was in, I think it was in, was it Nashville?
00:48:39.100
Antifa showed up to a restaurant and demanded that he put up a BLM flag.
00:48:43.580
When he didn't, they started smashing his property.
00:48:46.300
So when, when they start going to businesses and threatened them, when you go to Berkeley
00:48:50.480
and you see people putting up signs saying, please don't hurt us.
00:48:57.560
If you want to approach it as simplistically as they riot sometimes, but that's not what
00:49:03.560
What he's saying is, what he's saying is you could add it to the RICO statute to catch
00:49:08.180
Or, and, and, and we could do that at the same time that they're working on that.
00:49:11.040
We could be charging these people under RICO and going after them for criminal enterprise.
00:49:17.400
I mean, there's, there's organized terror attacks that's clearly outside of, of, right.
00:49:26.180
So when they're, when they're engaging in criminal acts under the threat, putting people
00:49:30.060
under the threat of force in order to get money, you've got RICO.
00:49:33.680
So the, the, the most dangerous element, in fact, I don't think is actually the red category.
00:49:38.220
These are the direct action guys who go on the ground and attack people.
00:49:42.440
They're hoping they can get some of the, they can get some of these greens radicalized
00:49:47.360
These are the people who are connected to the NGOs who are being paid salaries by some
00:49:51.620
nonprofit for some, here's, here's, it's actually really, really simple.
00:49:59.820
I, I, I got to, I, Jack, you, you know this and it's crazy.
00:50:03.440
I have to explain this to people who've never run a business.
00:50:07.720
You running a company can't, I can't be like, Hey, Luke, you want a job?
00:50:18.840
I have to file that with the IRS and I have to prove it.
00:50:21.920
So if you ever get audited, they're going to say, show me Mr. Rutkowski's work and, and
00:50:28.500
When nonprofits, which are under stricter regulation, hire staffers and then tell them,
00:50:36.460
And those, that person goes down to organize a protest.
00:50:38.980
Now you've got serious business and fraud, uh, at the, at the nonprofit.
00:50:42.920
And I can tie this back to the SPLC because remember, uh, stop cop city, uh, that was
00:50:48.840
going on in outside of Atlanta when they were attacking this, uh, police facility, Atlanta
00:50:54.660
PD facility, training facility that was being built out in, in disforested area and Antifa
00:51:00.120
were like living in trees at one point and then conducting serious attacks on the facility,
00:51:06.680
uh, burning, you know, Molotov cocktails, this type of thing.
00:51:09.440
Well, at one point in one of the major assaults on the facility, uh, there was an SPLC lawyer
00:51:17.140
And by the way, not there from, as a quote unquote legal observer, like when you see the
00:51:21.520
guys in the green hats, um, wow, it just hit something on my head.
00:51:27.160
And, um, this, this was a guy that was actually participating in the assault itself.
00:51:33.120
When you raise money for a charity that says we're going to lobby for environmental issues,
00:51:37.960
but then your paid staff are going and organizing protests, you've defrauded the people who've
00:51:44.180
So there's a, there's a, there's a bunch of real easy ways to go after these people.
00:51:47.360
And so anyway, just to kind of wrap it up, my point ultimately was put them all in jail.
00:51:52.220
I was just saying, be careful about giving them the radicalization tools they need by
00:51:56.200
being overbearing on some moron chubby guy who doesn't know what's going on.
00:52:04.600
They go to businesses and like legit, they'll say something like, Hey, are you, we want you
00:52:10.360
to put this in your window and they'll say, look, I'm not really interested.
00:52:18.100
I mean, I can't imagine what the protest is going to do.
00:52:28.380
And that's classic intimidation, getting back to the original, the original point of
00:52:33.120
Rico was, uh, uh, was it racketeering and I mean in criminal organizations, racketeering
00:52:39.160
influence, uh, criminal organizations, have you been to Berkeley and corrupt organizations
00:52:46.320
Have you seen how all the businesses have signs in their windows that either say, please
00:52:54.300
I'm pretty sure the Chinese nail salon that was all immigrants didn't actually believe
00:52:59.440
When I was in, uh, when I was in Chaz and, uh, we had all the buildings around there and
00:53:06.900
Um, and you would see the businesses and people were trying as hard as they could, you know,
00:53:11.340
sushi places and car dealers and whatever it was to, you know, put the signs up saying,
00:53:16.680
you know, and many of them, by the way, have now have now gone on to sue the city of
00:53:20.380
And I believe there may have been a settlement in that case where, uh, they said, you've
00:53:26.860
You allowed this organization of armed individuals to prey on us.
00:53:31.540
You told the police to leave the area around the Capitol Hill, uh, Capitol Hill, Cal Anderson
00:53:38.220
Park, that neighborhood, which they later then became the Capitol Hill autonomous zone.
00:53:43.140
And, and, and all of these businesses sued because their, their places were getting burned.
00:53:49.220
There are also people who lived in there cause it was mixed use.
00:53:52.640
So those people couldn't even come in and out of their homes on a regular basis.
00:53:56.960
I think where they have a video, they want us to play.
00:54:14.340
Do you think it's terrible how bigoted the president of the United States is being with all these
00:54:22.480
I thought we were doing that during, I thought we were doing that to cover this one.
00:54:31.620
Yeah, I thought we were doing that to cover it, but whatever.
00:54:34.440
Anyway, as I leave, where do you guys see all the momentum going on the right?
00:54:38.600
Because there's cultural victories against the ADL, the SPLC, YouTube, cultural victories against Netflix.
00:54:45.640
I mean, YouTube just took back our video with Alex Jones and Joe Rogan, which is huge.
00:54:50.520
By the way, YouTube, you still have a whole bunch of my videos deleted.
00:54:53.200
I would love them back, especially the ones with us talking with David Icke, predicting everything
00:54:57.280
that happened that got taken down for COVID misinformation about 10, 12 years ago.
00:55:02.180
But anyway, I'll leave you guys with that question.
00:55:20.340
By the way, Blake, there are headphones if you want them, and there are headphones here
00:55:25.020
I'm not sure those would fit over this object upon my head.
00:55:41.500
I don't want to derail this awesome conversation.
00:55:51.980
You know we're on the precipice of like a material science revolution?
00:56:01.060
Well, let's talk about using authoritarian crackdowns on whatever.
00:56:10.980
I don't know what you're into, but we're not talking about that.
00:56:14.880
Because you guys were talking about self-restraint a lot.
00:56:19.940
And holding the virtue, like the kindness that people inhibited and embodied after Charlie
00:56:27.240
I mean, there was a moment for people to rage, and people just held back.
00:56:32.160
Before we go, and I know you want to hit stuff, but so Ian, we're here.
00:56:36.400
This is Charlie's studio, and this is the chair of Charlie Kirk.
00:56:40.940
This is the chair where he sat, did his shows for years, day in, day out, when he was obviously
00:56:48.360
You could see some of the personal effects himself, his children, that he left.
00:56:53.480
We haven't changed anything since the last time he was sitting here, and we talk about
00:56:58.960
these things on a daily basis, and they get really real.
00:57:03.860
Blake here was standing about three steps away when it all went down.
00:57:10.320
A lot of the staff that's currently working were there with him that day, and I don't want
00:57:20.900
What concerned me was at his funeral, the memorial where everybody, Trump was there,
00:57:25.180
Stephen Miller was there, and I caught some clips where Erica's truly experiencing a level
00:57:30.680
of forgiveness, which comes from kindness and humility, and those are virtues.
00:57:37.140
Let me get this entire thought out before you chime in.
00:57:39.200
I hate my opponents, which is wrath, which is the sin opposite of patience, the virtue.
00:57:45.420
And to exhibit sin, like if you live in virtue, you're living with Christ.
00:57:50.700
If you live in sin, you're like, well, you're anti-Christ.
00:57:54.280
So everybody can exert a moment of anti-Christ behavior by embodying the sins.
00:57:59.820
And when Stephen, particularly, I'd love to hang out with Stephen Miller and talk about
00:58:02.820
this, because when he issued a threat to all of our opponents, he spoke, and then he said,
00:58:06.800
and to all those that oppose us, you are hateful.
00:58:12.100
That threat should have went on a direct channel to the opponent.
00:58:20.340
Well, I would argue the populace is currently being terrorized by the people killing Charlie
00:58:23.900
And he was speaking to those people who were listening.
00:58:28.320
It's like saying, in Minecraft, you are a hateful person.
00:58:34.320
So you say that, but Stephen Miller and President Trump are both currently officials of the federal
00:58:44.100
And the Bible also tells us that in Romans and many other places, that it is the role of
00:58:51.160
legitimate government to hold the sword, to wield the sword, and to use the sword for justice.
00:58:58.320
So when he's talking about that, I'm looking at that as the role of the magistrate to enact
00:59:10.520
But to invoke hatred, which is wrath, a sin at that level, I don't think the magistrate
00:59:18.280
They didn't realize the danger they were tangling with.
00:59:21.380
Well, I agree as it pertains to Trump, but not Stephen Miller.
00:59:25.480
And also, Trump is just going to talk the way Trump does.
00:59:30.520
I don't know that we're ever—you just can't really police the way Trump does.
00:59:33.780
Yeah, at this point in the game, yeah, he's not going to—
00:59:36.380
Jetty E says, as a Mexican, I approve of everything going on here.
00:59:43.480
But he did say—I will admit, I will admit that—or I will add, I should say, that he
00:59:48.200
did say, I'm open to letting Erica convince me otherwise.
00:59:52.060
That's why I bring it up, because we're all capable of exhibiting Antichrist behaviors,
00:59:55.340
and we need to keep each other in check as we get more powerful and famous and well-loved.
00:59:58.780
If someone were to snap and then start embodying sin, they would, in retrospect, like, that
01:00:03.220
was the Antichrist—it's just a guy exhibiting Antichrist.
01:00:05.800
I think that's—I think as what Jack is getting at, you know, you were saying you were happy
01:00:09.880
that in the aftermath of this there was not an explosion of mostly peaceful protests,
01:00:15.260
And I agree that that's a good thing, but I do think latent within that reaction is
01:00:22.200
the trust, the premise that there are legitimate state ways of responding to this, that they
01:00:29.740
will obviously find and punish the killer, and also that they will prevent future assassinations
01:00:36.720
like this happening, up to and including through, you know, corralling these violently
01:00:42.940
anti-social elements that want to kind of stoke low-level political violence across America
01:00:52.520
And if they lose their confidence that that can occur, there will be people who will go
01:00:58.880
Well, and Ian, this is exactly what we were talking about last night on TimCast, that what
01:01:03.880
happens when the legitimate authority, just on a practical level, what happens when a legitimate
01:01:09.280
government does not rise to the level of that government, does not provide for the safety
01:01:15.040
of the people, and then the people say, all right, if the government won't do it, then
01:01:24.980
Well, I was thinking, like, let's imagine maybe, like, the alternative extreme scenario,
01:01:32.340
No, as in hypothetically, let's say there was, like, a left-wing, a radical left-wing president,
01:01:36.960
and this happened to Charlie, and, like, the president came out and basically said, like,
01:01:41.220
he deserves it, and I'm going to sign a federal pardon for whoever did it.
01:01:44.680
Which is very similar to what Barack Obama actually said, by the way, after Charlie's murder.
01:01:50.420
You know, he kind of gave the comment where, you know, this is terrible, it shouldn't have
01:01:55.560
He goes, but, and then he reads off this litany of things that Charlie actually had said on
01:02:01.380
this show, on ThoughtCrime, and, but, you know, twisted in such a way and totally decontextualized
01:02:07.820
to remind his listeners, and by all intents, Barack Obama is the leader of the Democrat Party,
01:02:14.400
so he's sort of saying, you know, hey, you shouldn't have done this, but he was a bad guy.
01:02:22.420
They're, so, Joe Rogan brought this up when he said, I think the people who hate Charlie
01:02:27.580
think he was a bad guy, and I think they were good guys, and I counter with, no, they
01:02:35.940
They are told by their, by their death cult what to believe, and they say, yes.
01:02:41.460
So when Jimmy Kimmel goes on TV and says it was a MAGA guy who did it, they all go, yes.
01:02:46.560
And now when they're polled by YouGov, what do they say?
01:02:50.460
I got this question I want to ask you guys particularly.
01:02:53.300
A commenter said, hey, maybe Charlie would have wanted the man that killed him to receive
01:02:58.760
multiple life sentences so that he had an opportunity to atone in prison and find God
01:03:07.840
And I had just been like, oh, death penalty, death penalty, no question, death penalty.
01:03:11.020
And now I'm like, would it be better if he was able to suffer?
01:03:14.340
Well, Blake, you know, you spent a lot of time with Charlie talking about this issue.
01:03:19.020
You know, what would, and obviously, you know, Charlie had sort of an arc with that.
01:03:27.560
I don't think Charlie would admit to like conflicted feelings about it.
01:03:31.600
He kind of, earlier on, he had, you'll see this pretty commonly with especially like pro-life
01:03:36.340
people on the right where they'll want, they'll feel they want maximum consistency.
01:03:40.340
So they'll be opposed to abortion and they'll also be opposed to the death penalty.
01:03:43.900
Pope Leo's comments yesterday were all about this.
01:03:52.580
He wasn't blocking, he wasn't just blessing a block of ICE.
01:03:56.640
It was a secret signal that he's blessing the ICE mission in America.
01:04:11.740
So, but then Charlie himself, I would argue with him about this because I would, you know,
01:04:16.500
first of all, you, you reject vengeance as a principle that why you would do this, but
01:04:21.460
there are valid justifications for the death penalty.
01:04:25.740
And it's not merely that this individual person is dangerous.
01:04:28.840
I feel the best argument in favor of capital punishment is that you have to show maximum
01:04:34.760
levels of condemnation for the most destructive or evil acts in your society to say something
01:04:40.720
like this is so intolerable, it will be ripped out of the body politic, like the cancer that
01:04:45.780
And I think political assassination, which doesn't just, you know, end one life, it threatens
01:04:52.500
to basically destroy the country because we have a system that is based on nonviolent resolution
01:04:57.620
of differences through debate, through voting, through argument.
01:05:00.920
And someone went and smashed that to bits with a rifle.
01:05:05.500
And I think Charlie was like very understanding of that, that when you, when he was coming
01:05:12.980
to accept that, that when you refuse to consider maximally severe penalties on the worst criminals,
01:05:19.380
you're kind of exhibiting this general moral cowardice within your society and you're spreading
01:05:25.440
it. Now, should the man have an opportunity to find God?
01:05:29.840
Yes. But, you know, if he receives a proper trial and so forth, he will get all of those
01:05:35.420
things far more than, there are plenty of people, by the way, who are like police kill.
01:05:40.300
They just are, they're killed in the act, for example.
01:05:41.960
Like we will do lethal force to stop a criminal who is a danger to others.
01:05:47.500
And sometimes we do that and actually we end up killing someone who is actually not currently
01:05:55.180
sometimes mistakenly kill somebody in order to have the general principle of protecting
01:06:01.620
And there's even something much more simpler than this.
01:06:04.180
If he got the death penalty, it would take 20 years.
01:06:07.880
I would, I would strongly encourage us to find a way to reform that.
01:06:11.260
Like no one who does something like a political assassination where like, if you're able to
01:06:17.020
prove their guilt, I suspect it will not be in any serious doubt.
01:06:20.460
You know, if you need to accelerate it, if you need full-time legal proceedings to make
01:06:24.120
sure this is all done and dusted in two years, in three years, make it happen.
01:06:29.120
But, but, but, but functionally right now, if he got the death penalty, he'd be in jail
01:06:32.760
But we should, we should definitely work on getting rid of that.
01:06:34.840
But because one, that would actually make the death penalty itself more effective.
01:06:38.320
We should never have someone getting executed where we need to trot out 30 year old newspaper
01:06:43.260
articles to remind them of why they were sentenced that way.
01:06:45.200
And so in 1901, when an anarcho-socialist murdered President McKinley, that anarcho-socialist,
01:06:55.900
the assassin, was executed in the electric chair just 45 days after killing President McKinley.
01:07:04.580
There's a, there's a challenge in the, in the, in the structure of our society, its size,
01:07:11.340
I was watching a, what was that, 1912 or whatever that show is?
01:07:15.940
And there's a scene where someone gets accused of pickpocketing, pickpocketing.
01:07:19.780
So they just grab the guy and string him up and kill him on the spot.
01:07:26.880
Like, I think there's, there's like an image people have of the past and it's very mediated
01:07:33.900
And it can give you a mistaken impression of how it generally worked.
01:07:37.820
Like we did in fact have a criminal justice system in 1912.
01:07:40.700
Someone might get lynched in a rushed way and that was bad.
01:07:43.820
And that's why we would have campaigns against lynching.
01:07:46.100
But like the criminal justice system, there's a big difference between even 45 days and immediately.
01:07:51.800
Think about the structure of evidence back in the day.
01:07:57.840
And do we trust the person and people could lie or otherwise?
01:08:00.520
It's actually, well, in the case of, of the, the McKinley's assassin, this was done, I
01:08:09.900
So it means he was in front of, you know, he was a receiving line and he walked up with
01:08:14.280
So for this community that all watched it happen, it was real easy to just.
01:08:18.280
And also like Lee Harvey Oswald, they, they got him within day, a day or something of Kennedy's
01:08:22.840
and then Jack Ruby, the guy that killed him got killed even right after that.
01:08:33.560
And we know the CIA has a, has a cancer gun, I think was revealed in the church.
01:08:37.260
Well, to use a recent example, like Dylan Roof, I think America would have less racial trauma,
01:08:45.140
If Dylan Roof, instead of sitting on death row to this day, occasionally writing letters
01:08:50.080
to people and stuff that come out and like cause discord, like what if Dylan Roof had just
01:08:53.860
been executed eight months after that shooting in Charleston?
01:08:56.620
I think that would have made America a lot better place.
01:08:59.040
The issue I have is that I think conservatives typically come from a world, a worldview that
01:09:09.940
When I think what we saw, you know, three weeks ago shows that we are not, that there
01:09:14.120
are people who do not live in the same country as we do, despite occupying similar land.
01:09:18.120
And I do not want to give these power, these people the power to execute who they see fit.
01:09:22.180
I don't think Kamala Harris having the right to execute people is a good idea by any stretch.
01:09:26.420
So if the argument, if she were elected president, she wouldn't have the ability to do that.
01:09:34.180
So my point is, once again, if everyone in the country held the moral worldview of Charlie
01:09:43.460
We have now the argument for the creation of a mechanization of the state to kill means
01:09:50.040
that you've got all the Soros DAs going like, let's start killing people.
01:09:55.660
Well, but I mean that, you know, I think, I believe New York state still has death penalty.
01:10:05.020
My point is that in these areas where you have Soros DAs or, you know, Soros control over
01:10:10.960
huge swaths of territory, these are the very same policies where they're not doing that.
01:10:15.820
The reason I brought up Oswald is because I feel like they hushed it up.
01:10:18.400
They didn't want, like this guy that's sitting in prison right now that killed Charlie, that
01:10:21.260
what he was allegedly, the evidence seems to point to, he might come out and tell us
01:10:31.200
He will get a fair trial if he has mitigating factors, if he was, you know, if there is
01:10:38.280
something else that we don't know about yet, he will have the opportunity to present that.
01:10:48.420
There was, there was, there's a, appears to be evidence of coordination.
01:10:52.040
Now, I'm not going to say that this is something I truly believe, just a thought.
01:10:56.240
What happens if the evidence comes out that that communication between him and his furry
01:11:04.720
And this has caused a lot of people to start pushing conspiracy theories.
01:11:08.320
Matt Walsh, I think, had the best point in that it looks like he wrote this to create
01:11:12.440
reasonable doubt so that it could be used as exculpatory evidence for the boyfriend who
01:11:19.100
What happens if in three months the boyfriend's like, oh, by the way, here's the proof I didn't
01:11:23.800
I, I did this so that the real killers could escape.
01:11:27.400
You know, it's all, the, the text messages were to prevent.
01:11:33.240
So Matt Walsh's theory, I agree with him on this, but I want to give him credit for it.
01:11:37.400
The messages that came out from the FBI between the alleged assassin and the boyfriend.
01:11:42.400
Have no typos and are written like theater kids, like it's a script.
01:11:46.840
And liberals have come out saying this proves the FBI faked it, like the conspiracy theorists.
01:11:51.520
Then there's just general conspiracy theories that that's not real.
01:11:55.460
I don't think that's the case at all, especially knowing cash.
01:11:59.140
What likely happened is the assassin wrote this fake set of messages to the boyfriend
01:12:05.120
so that in the event of a criminal trial where they bring charges against the boyfriend who
01:12:08.940
coordinated and helped the assassination, they're going to show these messages to the
01:12:14.680
The messages show the boyfriend had nothing to do with it.
01:12:17.840
You're saying that the boyfriend himself was on trial.
01:12:26.260
I'm just making sure I'm following the, the, the theory you're presenting because, you
01:12:30.360
know, I've, I've seen as well that, um, and if you read some of the daily mail reporting
01:12:34.380
that's gone out on this, you know, these ideas that actually they were saying that it was
01:12:38.540
the boyfriend who was, was more antisocial, uh, that he was, you know, people referring
01:12:43.780
And again, this is just based on their reporting.
01:12:45.620
I don't have any direct, uh, knowledge of this.
01:12:50.080
And, and that in fact, he was far more political than, uh, Tyler Robinson had been.
01:12:57.580
And in fact, people were saying that he, it was them living together as roommates that
01:13:05.320
And so there's questions of, you know, did he pull him into this group and do all this?
01:13:10.660
Now, by the way, though, none of that, none of that changes the fact of who was on the,
01:13:19.220
Now, again, by assuming that all the evidence is true, et cetera, et cetera.
01:13:22.960
And also, here's, here's, here's, there's another theory that the boyfriend's actually
01:13:26.360
the, the, the assassin, uh, wearing a disguise.
01:13:29.520
They're both of similar height, gait, build appearance.
01:13:32.740
There is a theory that the boyfriend is actually the one who did it.
01:13:39.400
I think largely it was a coordinated group of leftists.
01:13:44.300
It explains the foreknowledge that was presented.
01:13:50.040
And they didn't catch the guy until well after 30, 33 hours or something.
01:13:55.500
And so again, I don't know, but one of the theories we've seen the photo of the dude in the,
01:14:00.460
in the, in the, um, the dairy queen, there's a lot of really kooky conspiracy theories about
01:14:08.500
However, what if the real shooter is the roommate, the script, the messages were scripted to create
01:14:27.060
I'm saying if there's a coordinated network, we've got a very, very serious problem.
01:14:32.220
Well, and obviously, and by the way, you know, you'd still,
01:14:35.460
of course, need to, you'd need to present that in court.
01:14:38.460
You need to present evidence of, all right, you know, are there, are there fingerprints?
01:14:43.120
Are there, you know, who had access to the gun?
01:14:44.900
And by the way, the, the, you know, Tyler Robinson, the fact that it was, again, his father's
01:14:49.800
gun, you know, originally the grandfather's, but, you know, the father in control of it,
01:14:53.460
um, that, uh, you know, there's, there's the fact that, you know, you, you have to say,
01:14:58.600
okay, was the boyfriend physically, you know, cause there was about three, what, three
01:15:02.380
hours away, you know, so was he physically anywhere present?
01:15:08.680
They had, uh, a bunch of vehicles came to their house in the, uh, was it in the week
01:15:20.160
He's investigating these people who allegedly, who appeared to have foreknowledge.
01:15:25.700
Uh, so it's fascinating when the conspiracy theories come out, I'm like, guys, there is
01:15:31.120
It appears, you know, what cash is literally telling you, he's tracking all of these things.
01:15:35.140
I think we're going to find that there's more leftists involved in this.
01:15:40.320
And, and, and let's, and let's be frank, by the way.
01:15:42.240
So I saw there were some discords that came out that, that, uh, an account that has been
01:15:46.820
associated with Tyler Robinson, what, but it was more of like a gamer chat.
01:15:50.260
But think about the people who use discord, all right, are you really just in one room?
01:15:56.080
Yeah, no, it's like there, it's in several, you can have several accounts.
01:15:59.000
I've never heard of one person just in one room.
01:16:02.140
So it's like, you're, they're like, oh, well this discord was apolitical.
01:16:05.020
Because it was the apolitical, like guys in my high school who play halo chat.
01:16:08.660
And then you can also just join the, I am a, you know, I'm transgender lunatic on, you
01:16:14.680
And then, and then where's the, so where's the furry chat and where's the furry porn?
01:16:20.900
Extreme furry porn chat that this guy was looking at, which included, by the way, depictions
01:16:25.580
of like children or what they call cub porn in, in furry parlance, which is a term that
01:16:34.640
And if you have been on discord, you will know transgender people are lunatics.
01:16:38.860
Like they're just, they're, they're extremists and they take over things.
01:16:42.380
So you can join some group that's related to something totally different.
01:16:46.460
Some game series, some hobby, but like the moderator will take it over and there'll be,
01:16:51.260
you know, some sort of furry or transgender thing.
01:16:53.200
And then now the logo of your group has a permanent pride flag in the background.
01:16:57.500
A very funny example of this is like the, the NFL subreddit on Reddit, like has permanent,
01:17:03.180
like, you know, the full trans pride flag is like still, still waving on it right now
01:17:10.140
I'm looking at, I'm going to, I'm looking at it right now.
01:17:19.260
I mean, I don't, I don't disbelieve you, but I've just, I have to see this.
01:17:23.360
A lot, while you guys are pulling up, just jump in.
01:17:27.640
You got to use the old form rather than the new form, which is what everyone prefers anyway.
01:17:39.920
And then, if you want to, if you want to, I have it pulled up actually.
01:17:43.700
It's, it's like games that are like on right now that they're, that they're referring to.
01:17:50.140
I think any ideology that takes over a system is probably right there, right there in the
01:17:58.200
And then it's right in the first top and the top thread there is Thursday night football.
01:18:02.100
Oh, who, why, why, why, why are people watching football, man?
01:18:11.520
Like when the Phillies defeat the Dodgers on Saturday.
01:18:20.740
And then shout out to the Cubs, by the way, because that was, that was Charlie's team.
01:18:25.720
I'm a Sox guy from the South side, but you know, when you, when you leave Chicago, it's
01:18:31.180
So you can rag on them when you're in town, but when you're out of town, they're your team.
01:18:35.680
So with capital punishment, um, some people were like, or at least across my mind, public
01:18:41.420
We've kind of gotten rid of them in society because they, maybe they do more harm than
01:18:45.000
And I, at first I was like, does this guy deserve to be lit up in front of groups?
01:18:49.180
But my concern would be that the video would be taken of it.
01:18:52.300
And then that would replicate a hundred million times online for little kids would see it and
01:18:56.320
they'd go even crazier and it would do like public execution.
01:19:01.580
I'm looking at Blake because this thing that you're talking about is one of the things that
01:19:07.160
people have been using to smear Charlie about that.
01:19:09.880
He said on this program, I don't remember the date, but we were debating.
01:19:16.440
And then on top of that, we also brought up, I brought up what I've argued before.
01:19:20.460
I was like, well, yeah, the death penalty is not a very good deterrent now because it's
01:19:23.940
a thing that has done a handful of times because it's 30 years after the fact.
01:19:28.900
And I said, if you're going to do it properly, like it should be swift.
01:19:31.820
It should be pretty consistently applied for certain crimes.
01:19:34.800
So it's like, if you do assassination, if you do multiple murders, like you will barring
01:19:40.520
extreme mitigating circumstances, get the death penalty.
01:19:43.160
And then one of the things I argued is it should arguably be done like in public in some
01:19:48.160
Like people should be able to see justice being done.
01:20:02.200
And then, and then Blake added, and then he threw out, he's like, and what age, like
01:20:07.360
And I, and I threw out, I was like, maybe 12 to explain my thinking is we have people
01:20:13.780
in like DC, for example, where if you have, you heard about the carjackings going on in
01:20:17.800
DC all the time, horrific, the people who do this are heavily minors, because if you
01:20:21.800
are 20 years old and carjacks someone, you trigger like the federal carjacking offense
01:20:25.620
and you see this, but if you're a minor, you know, a 13 year old is involved in a shooting
01:20:43.740
I can tell you in Chicago, the urban violence that we have would not be solved or mitigated
01:20:48.040
in any way by public executions or death penalty.
01:20:51.020
You, you do, because I've talked about it before and you're going to agree with me.
01:20:57.220
So, uh, where I grew up, these, a lot of the shootings you get in Chicago are about
01:21:03.720
So I actually, I went night crawling with a journalist once and we, I was like five corpses.
01:21:08.100
They were, uh, one house was an old lady who got shot because three dudes pulled up and
01:21:14.420
They were looking for a dude who went on Snapchat and called the guy's girlfriend nasty or ratchet
01:21:20.300
Death penalty doesn't scare these guys because they just, they, they, they want to go hard.
01:21:26.000
If you take these urban criminals and the penalty is they have to put on a diaper and a baby
01:21:32.820
bonnet with a pacifier and hop like a bunny down Roosevelt Avenue, literally straight down
01:21:38.720
it for like 12 miles while everyone lines up and films it.
01:21:42.040
And they have to say, I'm a big baby boo boo over and over again.
01:21:47.660
I know it's a silly thought and it's meant to be kind of silly.
01:21:50.280
My point is if you tell them that you will dishonor them for life, they will hide from you
01:21:54.940
and they will run in fear and they'll do everything they can to avoid.
01:22:01.260
My general, I've often advocated like, you know, I'll joke, this is less of a serious
01:22:05.800
thing, but I've pointed out it could work because the left always says abolish prisons.
01:22:09.560
And I'm like, you could abolish prison, like a lot of prisons.
01:22:12.220
If you basically just had a situation where you replaced prison, where on the low end,
01:22:19.040
So your first defense will like flog you in public or make you wear a diaper or do all
01:22:23.320
The flogging, I say, bro, that makes them harder.
01:22:26.360
Flogging, getting flogged like on your butt, on your bare butt is pretty humiliating.
01:22:30.120
These guys are going to, to a certain degree, but getting beaten, anything that makes them
01:22:37.260
But the thing is, is like, they don't say, I don't want to go to jail.
01:22:41.420
On the South side, they say, when I go to jail, I will do this.
01:22:48.040
They brag about how they might get the death penalty.
01:22:49.860
The reason you don't brag when you get flogged is if you're getting flogged properly, you
01:22:53.960
start screaming really loudly while it happens because it's extremely painful.
01:22:58.180
I know you're saying that, dude, but these guys shoot each other for less.
01:23:01.700
They know they will get shot for less in public.
01:23:10.040
So I was saying a spectrum, which is, yeah, at the low end, you could humiliate someone in
01:23:14.480
And I do think flogging would actually be pretty humiliating.
01:23:17.420
And then the higher end would be things like, oh, we're going to chemically castrate you
01:23:23.580
That could be, or, you know, literally castrate them.
01:23:28.760
And then you would basically be able to get rid of vast majority of prisons if you had
01:23:37.680
Build a wall around it and not let anyone leave.
01:23:39.880
So if you, if you, if you, if you go to Chicago, you in, in these neighborhoods, you get the
01:23:50.960
They're listless, purposeless, and they are killed for much less than the crimes you're
01:23:55.260
They will, they will like watch the Nick Shirley's got a great video where he goes to a gang
01:24:00.600
They all carry around guns and they're like, you'll die for being in the wrong neighborhood.
01:24:04.160
The death penalty for crossing the wrong street, the flogging, I'll tell you this agreed, but
01:24:10.460
it's got to be a guy, um, it's got to be a middle-class white dad looking guy.
01:24:15.580
And he's got to be delivering the flogging with a guy bent over his lap while he wears
01:24:22.500
That's going to be very, very offensive, but I guarantee you we'll make these guys avoid
01:24:27.400
Two guys who are accused of committing violent crime have to kiss each other in public.
01:24:39.100
We should show, uh, there's a, I don't know, we're going to play a doc.
01:24:46.100
Two gangbangers who are accused of serious violent crimes, and you said, we're going to
01:24:49.100
put you on stage at Grant Park, and you're going to kiss.
01:24:54.800
It's like, it's like, I'm booting and thugging or something.
01:25:00.180
The hopping down Roosevelt wearing a diaper and a baby bonnet with a pacifier, guaranteed
01:25:05.820
With this situation with Charlie's death, I felt like the best, the best, like, defense
01:25:11.100
of it ever happening, something that's ever happening again, was that it was, the movement
01:25:17.520
The movement, it wasn't derailed by Charlie's death.
01:25:21.100
It's still moving, if not even stronger than before, so obviously, Charlie's loss is, like,
01:25:31.160
Oh, that if we break down into violence and start attacking in response, that that's the
01:25:36.740
I heard you guys talking about rules for radicals earlier.
01:25:43.660
You know, we say no cruel and unusual punishment.
01:25:45.680
What is more cruel, putting someone in prison for 20 years or putting them in prison for
01:25:53.800
two years, but while they're in prison, it's a glass front everyone can watch, and they
01:26:00.880
have to wear a baby bonnet and a diaper the whole time they're in prison, which is more
01:26:05.240
20 years in prison, and you guys can answer this too, or two years with a glass front, everyone
01:26:12.240
They can point, and you got to drink like a baby.
01:26:13.200
What if we contracted with Mr. Beast, and he let Beast contestants torment the prisoner
01:26:20.620
Like, so-and-so donated $10,000, you don't get a toilet for the next three weeks.
01:26:34.080
If the guy had a 20-year sentence legitimately, it would be humiliating seeing them through the
01:26:43.640
The court says you can go to prison for 20 years.
01:26:45.400
If they put him in the hole, that's more cruel than usual than looking through glass.
01:26:47.620
20 years in a supermax prison, or two years, but you're going to be in public, and you've
01:26:57.020
I feel like we'd be at serious risk that they would just embrace the baby aesthetic.
01:27:04.000
They would all wear diapers in public all the time.
01:27:08.000
I'm just going to say, urban culture is pretty good at making things cool.
01:27:11.980
Torture existed for probably all of human history until, like, 80 years ago or something.
01:27:18.060
Actually, this is really important for you guys.
01:27:35.920
Once we developed television, and we were able to record our own behavior and see how some
01:27:45.940
Maybe now that we can see it from a distance, we realize this aspect of our humanity has got to change.
01:27:49.780
Just the culture in general is like, stop hitting women on TV.
01:27:55.220
Torture, now that we can see the repercussions of it, like, we've kind of pulled back on torture
01:27:59.820
with the Geneva Convention, industrial torture.
01:28:07.900
In comedy, you can pull it off, but, like, you know, aggressive, like, you're less than me.
01:28:12.620
That energy is kind of like, let's not do that anymore.
01:28:15.260
Like, they have a whole bit of Liam Neeson, like, beating some woman.
01:28:18.560
Racism's kind of starting to vanish since the 50s and 60s, since television.
01:28:25.140
Really, like, the whole world started to change when we saw ourselves from a distance.
01:28:32.700
You mean, like, when Buzz Aldrin looked at the earth and was like, ah!
01:28:37.180
You're saying that television, because it's so much more persuasive than print, especially on a mass scale,
01:28:47.060
and even more so than radio because it's visual, that the advent of television and the mass spread of television
01:28:53.340
from a commercial level and a personal level, particularly in the 1950s,
01:28:58.020
and that it may have led a sort of seeded the ground for the counterculture of the 1960s
01:29:06.040
and the cultural revolution that we saw in the United States.
01:29:09.480
Mao's cultural revolution kind of coincided with particularly radio.
01:29:15.040
Radio, because that was, like, the first step is all audio recording, just records in general.
01:29:19.300
And then Hitler used it, obviously, to mass form an entire society for whatever purpose he had.
01:29:25.660
And then, by the way, I am told to say happy birthday to Chris.
01:29:36.520
And I just want to say, hey, Chris, happy birthday.
01:29:43.220
The reason I brought up is because if you could, this is such a horrible thing to say out loud,
01:29:46.480
torture someone in a deepfake, so they don't have to actually get tortured,
01:29:50.240
but you get to watch them suffer, but you think it's real because it's a deepfake,
01:29:55.880
What if we could put people in a Neuralink where it would simulate being in prison for 20 years,
01:30:05.000
Wouldn't people use that to just, like, also fake live a long time or something?
01:30:11.300
They take eye drops with nanites in them that hit their memories,
01:30:14.420
and then they instantly get a memory of, like, skiing in Aspen or something.
01:30:23.760
Yeah, the old Arnold Schwarzenegger, like, I'm going to take a vacation to Mars.
01:30:27.860
So there's, like, a guy, and he says, we can sell this to prisons,
01:30:31.380
and then we can do 20-year prison sentences overnight,
01:30:33.420
and then the woman who works with them, she's like, this is supposed to be for entertainment,
01:30:38.520
and then she makes them go to prison for 100 years or something,
01:30:40.560
and he's like, ah, and then a minute later comes back, and he's insane or something.
01:30:43.260
I would do the opposite, too, where you put someone...
01:30:45.860
They lived their life 20 years ago by, but they only remember, like, 10 seconds of it.
01:30:51.300
What if we could use a neural link and rewrite their brain,
01:30:55.740
and it would keep their memories and their personality,
01:31:01.140
Like, literally, any time they would commit any kind of crime,
01:31:05.760
they would get physically sick and feel, like, scared.
01:31:08.720
You know, there was this old 90s show called Babylon 5, I believe.
01:31:14.020
They had an episode where, like, instead of the death penalty,
01:31:21.680
except they would also basically rewrite your personality.
01:31:24.240
So, like, you would come back as, like, essentially a pro-social, better person.
01:31:27.820
I mean, this was the theory behind lobotomization.
01:31:32.520
Originally, that, you know, if we remove certain parts of the brain
01:31:35.120
that target aggression or, you know, whatever the variety is,
01:31:42.620
Let's say you've got somebody who, let's say there's, like, a brutal murder,
01:31:49.340
And the courts are like, we can give him the death penalty,
01:31:51.880
or we can rewrite his brain so that he no longer has the ability to be violent
01:31:58.040
He'll still go to prison for a certain amount of time, like 20 years,
01:32:00.180
but, you know, would you prefer that over the death penalty?
01:32:04.980
20 years in prison and a rewriting of their brain
01:32:11.460
I think that it's really going to start happening.
01:32:17.280
and graphene sensors, like, super sensitive sensors
01:32:21.820
and understand and reverse engineer thought patterns and stuff,
01:32:25.080
that we will have the opportunity to blank people's brains,
01:32:29.380
But then what happens when that system gets hacked?
01:32:35.580
Yeah, I think we probably have some stuff, too.
01:32:44.100
He says it over and over again because he thinks it's a gotcha.
01:32:48.160
For legal reasons, I will simply direct you to Nate Friedman on Instagram,
01:32:53.880
Nate Friedman underscore, and just watch his videos.
01:33:05.440
I'm like, okay, so DT Antifa has this one, this one, this one, this one.
01:33:08.860
And people who have been charged, by the way, for various things.
01:33:15.240
The person who assaulted me in Lincoln Square Park when there's that picture of us.
01:33:23.480
Considering Trump has named them a terrorist organization,
01:33:26.820
there's a whole legal minefield in starting to name people who we know are organizing these things
01:33:33.520
And I'm actually friends with a lot of them on Facebook, actually,
01:33:38.360
And I would just say Nate Friedman is doing a really good job of investigating a lot of these people.
01:33:42.580
All you got to do is look at his page, and he's got dossiers on these guys.
01:33:47.040
The dude that I know on Facebook tends to type things like, pick up bricks.
01:33:50.400
I'm like, I feel like I should report it to the FBI.
01:33:52.840
And I'm like, then I think about the Nazis and how people would inform on them when there's a Jew.
01:33:59.840
Just distance myself from this crazy, radical rhetoric.
01:34:05.980
Being a Jew who owns a store is the same thing as being a violent extremist
01:34:08.940
who wants people to go commit acts of terrorism.
01:34:14.460
He's not commanding someone to go throw it, but what else would you be holding a brick for?
01:34:22.840
Tweedledee, Tweedledum, death threats, don't fly anymore.
01:34:29.620
If Tweedledum says, fascists should hit with bricks.
01:34:39.620
It's sensitive to the time of that being on a bullet that was used.
01:34:47.380
And in a post-Charlie Kirk world, I think a lot of those niceties that we used to play by, they just don't apply.
01:34:53.800
So what happens to people that witness things like pick up a brick and they don't say anything about it?
01:35:03.260
However, you should as a citizen of the United States, because you would want to know if someone was.
01:35:14.540
Obviously, this studio, this turning point has faced numerous threats.
01:35:19.780
You guys have been swatted and targeted so many times.
01:35:24.040
So I would absolutely pick up the phone and call Tim or call you and say, hey, guys, I saw this thing.
01:35:38.760
I'm not going to get into specifics for security reasons, but I've currently been in contact directly with the FBI over what's going on.
01:35:49.220
If Tweedledee says someone should kill fascists and then Tweedledum points at Jack and goes, hey, look,
01:35:56.300
The point of what they're doing is they're trying to say as long as half of the phrase is from one person and half is from the other.
01:36:03.540
We haven't created an imminent threat against an individual.
01:36:07.800
We know exactly what you're doing and why you're doing it.
01:36:09.660
Blake, are you like what kind of level of I asked these guys this last night level of brutality?
01:36:15.920
Because I know you were there with Charlie when he was killed.
01:36:17.880
Jack said, like three feet away or something, six feet away, 10, 10 feet away, three steps.
01:36:22.320
And I imagine that that changed your nervous system or something.
01:36:30.840
When we got here, he was screaming and punching a pillow.
01:36:35.560
There's like, I ask only, and I'll let you answer if you have, I'm thinking of the My Lai
01:36:39.720
massacre in Vietnam where the troops were basically broken by seeing their friends die and they
01:36:45.800
And then they had to land it, a guy landed a helicopter, pointed at the guns at his own men
01:36:50.300
and was like, stop or I'm going to kill you all.
01:36:52.700
And it was, the captain got charged and then pardoned for it.
01:37:00.320
Not the least because I've been told not to say too much about it as an eyewitness.
01:37:07.580
I'm not sure what I'd say besides what I saw, but I don't know.
01:37:17.880
I guess I just would prefer rather not to wallow in that.
01:37:21.640
No, I would say though that Blake, look, you've been here every day since.
01:37:26.280
I mean, you've been handling it and everyone here who was there, including we have staffers
01:37:32.400
here who went even beyond that and I just don't want to get into it right now, but you
01:37:39.600
know, it's, I, and I'll, and Ian, just to answer for Blake in a sense, you've never called
01:37:48.080
And we were here live when they announced the charges and we had a very civil discussion
01:37:54.980
about how we want this person to have a fair trial.
01:38:00.840
There was that fellow on the campus who, according to police, he like after the shot
01:38:06.420
happened, the older guy, the older guy who like kind of tried to take credit for it.
01:38:10.060
Now, which he later came out and said he was trying to be a decoy.
01:38:13.480
And according to reports, he's like a known campus nuisance.
01:38:17.460
He, in fact, I think they had a standing order to arrest him if he was seen, but he blended
01:38:27.940
I would say like, why should that person not be charged as an after the fact accessory?
01:38:31.660
I don't understand why you're going to be charged.
01:38:37.760
I asked about the, like what level of brutality.
01:38:44.200
I feel like we're on the precipice of like some sort of brutal crackdown.
01:38:49.740
Now government coming to use the boot of force on terror networks.
01:38:55.100
And in China, like we have the Tiananmen Square massacre that was incredibly brutal and then
01:39:02.880
And then the Hong Kong riots where they were out there spraying water mixed with, you
01:39:08.120
know, pepper spray with blue ink so that they can burn these people's skin and then
01:39:14.260
And it burned their skin in the process with the pepper spray.
01:39:16.620
But what level of brutality would you be willing to accept to get this job done?
01:39:26.380
It's an ever problem with the Patriot Act and domestic terrorists.
01:39:29.620
Let me slow you down and try and explain something.
01:39:32.100
I don't think you know what's going on in the world, nor do you understand what it takes
01:39:42.100
You're saying what degree of brutality are you willing to accept?
01:39:44.480
But apparently even the assassination of our friend has not changed our minds in escalating
01:39:51.780
So the point is, they have not only killed people we love and care about, they have killed
01:39:57.280
They have shot people simply for driving their cars.
01:40:02.860
They have committed such egregious violations of our moral worldview.
01:40:07.580
The degree of brutality, I think, let's just call it 100% brutality.
01:40:11.840
Because I think when you arrest Trump's lawyers unconscionally, raid his home, target his
01:40:16.540
family, when you arrest all of his business associates, falsely accuse him of rape, run
01:40:20.840
him through the courts, try and seize his property, falsely accuse him of fraud, target
01:40:24.760
his supporters, create a police force that goes nationwide, raids people's homes.
01:40:29.100
We're talking about the highest degree of brutality.
01:40:31.720
So the question is, what degree of brutality are you willing to accept?
01:40:35.160
In return now, because like, worst case, I'm thinking, I'm picturing, oh, we're going
01:40:40.320
But to go, like if Antifa were to hole up in a building, they're leaders and they're
01:40:43.940
pointing their guns out and they're not letting guys in.
01:40:45.400
Guy try to kick the windows in, Navy SEALs, four troops get killed.
01:40:54.240
No, I'm just saying that, you know, if we do want to get to some more chats.
01:41:01.600
I think we're going to lose the studio and it's just, we started, we started a little
01:41:04.300
bit late, but you know, if there's any, there's any specific ones you wanted to get to or
01:41:08.740
I don't see any, uh, I might've missed some on ours cause I only started looking late.
01:41:12.760
So I apologize if that, I apologize if that happened to any of you.
01:41:22.080
That's, uh, Enrique C says between the hats, music and the shout out.
01:41:29.480
So maybe Ian, he's got a little, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:41:33.860
And everybody, it's a, it, uh, someone in chat said that it was like, uh, uh, a yarmulke
01:41:42.260
Shout out to all the Jews and all the Mexicans and everybody else.
01:41:55.340
Um, Tim Neal says, wow, Ian, your account of the MyLi massacre didn't even,
01:42:03.660
I, I pulled it up right away and I was like, Ian, you're wrong.
01:42:06.600
Well, you said that like, they were so shocked by seeing their friends killed or whatever.
01:42:11.780
It, it, it just says that they gang raped women.
01:42:25.920
And by the way, their public opinion was strongly on his side, if I remember correctly,
01:42:30.200
because they, they viewed him as being extremely overcharged.
01:42:33.700
I think we covered this like a while ago, didn't we?
01:42:37.360
I, I remember just talking about this not long ago.
01:42:42.400
Farrah says not much, but here's a donation for your security.
01:42:48.720
And there's two things all of you can do and you should do.
01:42:51.520
You can join our discord server at timcast.com and you can sign up for a turning point USA
01:42:56.340
and become a monthly donor and help them do the work they're doing.
01:42:59.020
And, uh, I don't know if, if your show actually has some, some, an alternate format as
01:43:04.120
There is a CK exclusives if they want to sign up for that with, uh, so I think it is,
01:43:12.900
Uh, someone's just going to go to charliekirk.com.
01:43:19.100
Um, Erica, who was, was here the other day sitting right where Blake is, uh, Tim, actually
01:43:24.280
where you're sitting right now is where Erica gave her speech.
01:43:30.640
And, and, uh, she said there is, there are unreleased, uh, you know, tapes and, you know,
01:43:36.880
maybe speeches that were, uh, private for a, you know, a fun, fun, fundraising group,
01:43:44.160
And so, uh, members at Charlie Kirk, members.charliekirk.com members.charliekirk.com to get there.
01:43:52.500
I wanted to address just what he was saying about security too.
01:43:54.600
I, I, I've talked to, for the longest time, everyone always says, don't talk about what's
01:44:02.700
I've been talking about a little bit more and I, I've just had a few more conversations
01:44:06.520
Uh, obviously I'll keep it a bit vague, but in the past couple of weeks, the amount of
01:44:10.940
threats we've got have been extremely serious and have escalated to the point where I'm in
01:44:14.340
direct contact with the FBI, which is a pretty crazy thing to say, because I wouldn't have
01:44:17.380
bothered doing that in the previous administration.
01:44:21.840
We had a bunch of threats with the bomb threats of swattings and they didn't do jack.
01:44:24.940
Uh, this current FBI is taking it very seriously and the threats we have are, are legit and
01:44:29.480
very serious and probably the worst we've ever seen.
01:44:32.640
I've been told quite a bit by everybody, just don't bring it up.
01:44:35.900
The problem with that is, is exactly as Stephen Crowder pointed out.
01:44:38.540
So I stand with him in saying this, if we do not explain to everybody watching that in
01:44:43.660
order to have shows like this, where we're goofing off and having philosophical conversations
01:44:47.460
about morals and stuff, just doing this results in people taking real action to try and end
01:44:54.440
And in Charlie's case, they, they, these horrible people murdered this man.
01:45:00.280
I think it's important that we do talk about it when it does happen.
01:45:04.460
I've talked about, you know, we, we, the swatting's never stopped.
01:45:11.240
We say, well, just, we're just done talking about it.
01:45:14.340
Are we going to be the swat show where we say, Hey, it happened again.
01:45:16.420
So with the threats that we get now, I do think when, when, when it, when it, when it's
01:45:20.640
relevant, when it matters, we, we should talk about this.
01:45:23.300
And I should tell you that it's very serious right now.
01:45:27.700
We are spending tens of thousands of dollars more than we normally do because of how serious
01:45:32.180
And I, I'm literally having to get on the phone with the FBI because of how serious it
01:45:36.180
I don't want to go into any personal details, but let me just say, these things are terrifying.
01:45:41.580
If we don't talk about it, regular people have the perception that we're chilling, having
01:45:50.320
The left, I don't think experiences the degree of threats that we do.
01:45:54.660
Um, I will say this, there's a particular leftist personality who lives in a normal urban
01:46:01.940
And he doesn't seem to have a care in the world, despite having a massive audience and
01:46:08.020
And I have to move out of the city and get away because we had a pedophile try to break
01:46:12.180
into my house when I was in Jersey and the cops worst things to have break into your
01:46:16.920
And the cops told me if I defended myself, I'd go to prison.
01:46:19.440
So I'm like, okay, time to move, time to get away.
01:46:26.100
It was the kid that you were keeping under the bed that they would have freaked out about.
01:46:27.940
New Jersey says that if you can flee, you have to.
01:46:33.180
After you're charged with felony murder, we'll figure it out.
01:46:39.200
If you are in your home and someone breaks in and screams that they're going to kill you,
01:46:45.860
The only circumstance in which you are allowed is if you are trapped.
01:46:53.460
They said, you will be arrested for killing this person.
01:47:02.320
If, however, the defense, the prosecution will then argue, here's why you could have.
01:47:06.980
If it is all brought to you and you answer the question that, well, maybe I could have escaped,
01:47:17.360
Because what you're telling the judge and the jury is, I would rather murder a man than stand
01:47:22.240
You are not allowed to kill people in New Jersey.
01:47:24.600
In Maryland, only if they try to break into your house.
01:47:26.600
This is a perfect example of why the next governor of New Jersey should be Jack Ciattarelli.
01:47:35.960
And make New Jersey, red jersey, make that happen.
01:47:41.680
We've seen, and we talked about last night, Tim, I think three independent polls now in a row
01:47:46.840
saying that this race is either within the margin of error or is completely tied.
01:47:53.580
Restore the right of self-defense to New Jerseyans.
01:47:56.820
And yes, yes, even as a Pennsylvanian, I will say that New Jerseyans do deserve rights, you
01:48:07.460
But, you know, the right to self-defense should be sacrosanct.
01:48:10.420
And this is absolutely something that a new governor and legislature, of course, hopefully
01:48:18.600
The reason this is the law is that when someone breaks into your home, the right implicitly
01:48:25.860
sympathizes with the homeowner who is being attacked and the left naturally sympathizes
01:48:40.220
You guys having us here and affording us the ability to do the show from Charlie's studio
01:48:44.360
to get to sit next to his great chair, to get to have IRL in the TPSA buildings.
01:48:51.980
Well, I mean, I, you know, we appreciate it so much that you came in, that you dedicated
01:48:58.460
And, and, you know, Tim's like, oh, well, it's scheduling.
01:49:06.940
And, you know, and I'm not saying I'm judging people, you know, if they, if they weren't
01:49:10.960
able to make it to Memorial or something like that, but you were here, you were here at
01:49:19.620
Smash the like button, share the show on both channels, subscribe to all the shows.
01:49:23.360
You can follow me on X and Instagram at Tim cast.
01:49:33.780
Uh, Blake, uh, of course was, um, you know, was smeared and doxxed and had been canceled
01:49:44.180
And, uh, his first video went viral with you and Tucker Carlson sitting right here and
01:49:50.400
talking about how it was Charlie Kirk who, uh, who said, you know what, I'm going to hire
01:50:01.280
It would be Blake enough, but I had to delete that one when they doxxed me.
01:50:21.100
You can find me there everywhere on the internet, YouTube, Twitter, all the good websites.
01:50:26.200
Again, man, thank you guys so much for hosting.
01:50:29.100
Thank you, Charlie, for everything you've done and what you've built.
01:50:31.480
And we will continue this process and make it even better than you could have ever imagined.
01:50:36.900
All right, ladies and gentlemen, as always, go out there and commit more thought crime.
