00:00:37.000 What's it all about?
00:00:40.000 Now, I want you to remember that no bastard ever beat the SPLC being all Peely Wally and eating Jammie Dodgers on the couch.
00:00:50.000 He succeeded by getting off his arse while those Peely Wallies ate Jammie Dodgers on the couch.
00:00:58.000 Big man, all this stuff you've heard about the Southern Poverty Law Centre is a load of absolute shite.
00:01:05.000 Americans, for this reason, are buzzing for free speech.
00:01:09.000 All real Americans are mad with saying what they think, even when their patter is rotten.
00:01:17.000 When yous were wains.
00:01:19.000 When you all admired the controversial comedians.
00:01:23.000 The Billy Connollys.
00:01:24.000 The outspoken class clown.
00:01:27.000 The old man if he'd done the road he wouldn't have taken his shite like Rob Bloody Nesbitt or even Jack and Victor.
00:01:33.000 Americans love free speech and they're not going to tolerate a load of pure shite dafties taking it away.
00:01:42.000 Now.
00:01:43.000 I would never say aud your wish to a man whose bum was out the windy.
00:01:48.000 That's why Americans have never lost and never will lose free speech.
00:01:51.000 Because the very thought of having no right is hateful to Americans.
00:01:57.000 The perverted Peter Puffers who wrote that stuff about Ma Wayne don't know anything more about the real free speech battle than they know about getting their haul.
00:02:08.000 And I've got a strong feeling these Jessies haven't even winched a bird.
00:02:13.000 Now, we have the best spirit and the best innovators in the world.
00:02:17.000 You know, by God, I actually pity those lazy crybaby bastards we're going up against.
00:02:22.000 By God, I do.
00:02:24.000 And we're not all just going to fight the SPLC.
00:02:27.000 We're going to sue them and use their jobbies to grease the wheels of freedom.
00:02:33.000 We're going to beat those bastards one lawsuit at a time.
00:02:39.000 Now, some of you boys and girls and Z's, however made up pronouns you have, I know some of yous are wondering or not, I'll chicken you out of fire.
00:02:48.000 Don't worry about it.
00:02:50.000 I can assure you I'll do my duty.
00:02:52.000 The SPLC and their ilk are the enemy and I'll set about them.
00:02:57.000 I'll give them the Glasgow kiss and have them spend their spondoolies on lawyers.
00:03:02.000 We're going to grab the SPLC by the dick and we're going to kick them in the ass.
00:03:06.000 We're going to kick the hell out of them all the time and we're going to fight through them like crap through a gush!
00:03:13.000 It's going to be a square go and there are going to be guys scattered!
00:03:18.000 Now, there's one thing we'll be able to say after this fight, and you may thank God or me for it.
00:03:25.000 Thirty years from the new, when you're sitting around the fireside with your grand Wayne on your knee, and he asks you, here you, what did you do about free speech?
00:03:35.000 You won't have to say, well I sat around and watched it all come crashing down.
00:03:42.000 Alright now you sons of b****es.
00:03:44.000 You know how I feel.
00:03:45.000 I may be out my nut but I'm game and that's what matters.
00:03:48.000 And I will be bloody proud to lead you people into this legal battle anytime, anywhere, nae danger!
00:03:58.000 Defend Gavin.com That's all
00:04:03.000 Defend Gavin.com Defend Gavin.com
00:04:08.000 You're a strange animal, that's what I know You're too strange animal, I come to follow
00:04:34.000 I'm a misogynist That's called the I'm Not Sick
00:04:41.000 Because I am sick.
00:04:42.000 I'm sure as many of you can imagine if you've listened to that.
00:04:45.000 Do you have AIDS?
00:04:47.000 I very well might.
00:04:48.000 I have no idea.
00:04:50.000 By the way, we have Alex Jones on the show today, controversial figure.
00:04:53.000 Fair warning, it was a pre-tape because I didn't know if my voice would hold up.
00:04:56.000 Don't try to imagine.
00:04:56.000 But we have an extended web edition that will be available exclusively for Mug Club members.
00:05:00.000 And we have Quarterback here.
00:05:01.000 Show him your... What's up, man?
00:05:02.000 That's absolutely terrible.
00:05:03.000 We have, hey, in third chair, you know him, you love him, Mahmood Al Mahmood, ISIS communications director.
00:05:10.000 Communications director extraordinaire.
00:05:12.000 Good to see you again, Stephen.
00:05:13.000 Thank you for having me.
00:05:14.000 It's surprising that we have your revisits.
00:05:16.000 Yes, you know, I try.
00:05:17.000 I try.
00:05:17.000 I appreciate your trust in us.
00:05:19.000 And we also have G. Morgan Jr.
00:05:21.000 What's the wine of the day?
00:05:21.000 The wine of the day is Eight Years in the Desert Zinfandel.
00:05:24.000 Eight Years in the Desert Zinfandel.
00:05:25.000 All right.
00:05:26.000 I don't know anything about that, but that sounds anti-Semitic.
00:05:28.000 That sounds right up my alley.
00:05:29.000 That's totally not.
00:05:31.000 I don't know why it would sound up your alley.
00:05:33.000 No, I don't do wine.
00:05:35.000 What does wine taste like?
00:05:36.000 It's illegal.
00:05:37.000 I thought it was... Wait, it's 8 years in the desert?
00:05:39.000 It's called 8 years in the desert.
00:05:41.000 Not quite 40, but 8 years in the desert.
00:05:42.000 Yeah, I know.
00:05:43.000 They got their little murky in the math.
00:05:45.000 But the principle's the same!
00:05:47.000 By the way, what do you think was the highlight this week for Democrats?
00:05:52.000 Farrakhan endorsing Omar?
00:05:54.000 Representative James Clyburn implying that Omar had it worse than your average Holocaust survivor?
00:05:59.000 Let us know in the comments below.
00:06:01.000 We're going to get to Cortez's potential campaign finance violations in a little bit.
00:06:07.000 We actually will have Cortez on the show!
00:06:09.000 We are going to have Cortez on the show.
00:06:10.000 What would you say there, Mahmoud, this week is the highlight for Democrats?
00:06:15.000 Oh, anything with Ilhan Omar, man.
00:06:17.000 Their party from another party, yeah.
00:06:21.000 Did she come up through your ranks?
00:06:23.000 Did you have any relationship with her?
00:06:25.000 No, I never crossed paths with her, but maybe one day.
00:06:30.000 She had already married your brother.
00:06:32.000 It was too late for him.
00:06:33.000 Bleeding the news before that.
00:06:35.000 Google, you guys read about this?
00:06:36.000 Google attempted to address wage equity.
00:06:38.000 Good, finally.
00:06:39.000 Turns out, They're paying men way less than women.
00:06:42.000 This comes from the New York Times.
00:06:43.000 A survey of salaries reached the surprising conclusion men were being underpaid, but the company acknowledged that the analysis did not address broader issues of gender inequity.
00:06:53.000 To swiftly resolve the gap, Google immediately executed all men by way of crucifixion.
00:06:58.000 Yeah, that's a man in question reached for comment.
00:07:00.000 Couldn't answer until a woman said they could, so they actually didn't hear from them a whole lot.
00:07:05.000 That's a quality crucifixion.
00:07:08.000 Wow.
00:07:09.000 That's good.
00:07:10.000 As somebody who's done it many times, you're like, ah, nice handiwork.
00:07:13.000 I wonder who their guy is.
00:07:15.000 Wow.
00:07:15.000 What would you say with your organization?
00:07:17.000 Is it comfortable to Google for a guy?
00:07:19.000 Is it easier to get a head?
00:07:20.000 Oh, definitely.
00:07:21.000 Definitely.
00:07:22.000 The guy's definitely better at getting a head.
00:07:24.000 Even two heads.
00:07:24.000 Sometimes three heads.
00:07:28.000 For people listening to Terrestrial, that is not a sexual reference.
00:07:31.000 Merely murder.
00:07:34.000 I love the last part of that.
00:07:34.000 The broader issues of gender inequity.
00:07:36.000 I'm like, OK, so you guys have been feeding us this gender pay gap line forever, despite facts to the contrary.
00:07:42.000 And you finally do a study on it, and you're like, oh, but there's broader issues of inequity.
00:07:46.000 We have to pivot real quick.
00:07:47.000 Yes, there are broader issues.
00:07:48.000 What's that?
00:07:49.000 Maybe we have too many Asians?
00:07:51.000 I think it's almost like Brown.
00:07:53.000 Like, there's a scary lot.
00:07:57.000 There's a lot.
00:07:58.000 It's scary!
00:08:00.000 It's going to turn, and when it does, it's not going to be pretty.
00:08:02.000 Turning to, I guess we'll call this next story science fiction.
00:08:06.000 An ex-transgender man now wants to live life as a sexless alien.
00:08:11.000 Also, he's had his nipples removed.
00:08:12.000 We'll get to that in a second.
00:08:13.000 This comes from The Mirror.
00:08:15.000 Unsullied.
00:08:16.000 What did he steal?
00:08:17.000 Jareth.
00:08:17.000 Okay, before I continue this, who else here, when you read this story, read, okay, sexless alien, removed nipples, named Jareth, knew immediately, show of hands, it was named after David Bowie from Labyrinth.
00:08:27.000 No.
00:08:27.000 No?
00:08:28.000 No?
00:08:28.000 It was me.
00:08:29.000 Yeah, immediately.
00:08:30.000 So Jareth, named after David Bowie's character in Labyrinth, says thank you for clarifying, Mere, just wants people to accept who he is and admit that he would rather be called a thing or it.
00:08:40.000 He's not looking for full-blown acceptance.
00:08:43.000 He's just looking for tolerance.
00:08:44.000 What was this?
00:08:45.000 I said it, like the clown.
00:08:47.000 Yeah, pretty much.
00:08:48.000 By the way, in the spirit of fairness, it is important to acknowledge, okay, not all trans aliens are a monolith, as seen by Z's colleagues, their stern rebuke at today's press conference.
00:08:57.000 As president of the Space Alien Trannies of America, and one who's worked tirelessly for intergalactic Z's rights, I feel it's imperative to note that Jareth is not representative of our community.
00:09:09.000 You call this a c**t?
00:09:13.000 Talk about a hatchet job.
00:09:15.000 laughter And we're back.
00:09:23.000 We're back.
00:09:23.000 Don't worry.
00:09:24.000 Half-Asian Bill Richman already fixed it.
00:09:26.000 Oh, good.
00:09:26.000 We're good.
00:09:27.000 Oh, thank god.
00:09:27.000 We're good again.
00:09:28.000 It's a close one.
00:09:29.000 And the trainee just killed itself.
00:09:31.000 A lot of developments can happen in the show.
00:09:34.000 Demonetized.
00:09:35.000 This is one of those issues where we're not supposed to talk about the instability.
00:09:40.000 This is a person who cut off their nipples, wants to name themselves after not even a very good film, by the way.
00:09:47.000 Not a great film.
00:09:48.000 That's a very niche name.
00:09:49.000 And then wants the rest of us to go along with this delusion.
00:09:51.000 Look, I don't know what you have to steal to have your nipples cut off.
00:09:54.000 This is a new country for me.
00:09:57.000 But I will say this.
00:09:58.000 I tried to, during the clip, look this up.
00:10:02.000 Turn safe search on.
00:10:06.000 If you're watching at this, don't ask me how I know.
00:10:08.000 You remind me of the space tranny.
00:10:11.000 Who?
00:10:12.000 The space tranny with the power of fillet.
00:10:14.000 The power to fillet your cock inward and invert it and then reopen it as a wound.
00:10:18.000 I don't know this.
00:10:19.000 Come back, Sarah, before it's too late.
00:10:22.000 That's terrible.
00:10:23.000 Look, by the way, I lay this completely at the foot of the Dems.
00:10:26.000 You guys own this.
00:10:27.000 You're the ones that said, let's just do LGBT stuff.
00:10:31.000 LG, I think, initially, or LGB, whatever it was.
00:10:33.000 Jack Dorsey, on the Joe Rogan show, just recently said, LGBTQA.
00:10:38.000 Twice, unironically.
00:10:39.000 I'm like, this is why you can't enforce the rules equally, because you don't even realize you have a blonde spot.
00:10:44.000 LGBTQA.
00:10:45.000 Are you going to add the A-A-I-P and a silent F?
00:10:48.000 I mean, you have to do the bit.
00:10:49.000 And Two Spirit.
00:10:49.000 Don't forget Two Spirit.
00:10:51.000 If you have a question, it sounds like Mahmood.
00:10:53.000 They added to it?
00:10:54.000 Yes.
00:10:55.000 You guys have been trying to subtract from it for a long time by throwing them on buildings.
00:10:58.000 I get it.
00:10:58.000 They add to it, and the good ISIS taketh away.
00:11:01.000 There's the circle of life.
00:11:02.000 Equilibrium.
00:11:03.000 Equilibrium.
00:11:04.000 Keep everything balanced.
00:11:05.000 Also a horrible film, Equilibrium.
00:11:07.000 An international news.
00:11:08.000 A UK school.
00:11:10.000 just stopped LGBT lessons after Muslim parents protested.
00:11:14.000 This comes from The Guardian.
00:11:15.000 About 600 Muslim children were withdrawn from the school for the day, and the school confirmed the lessons would resume only after a full consultation with every single parent.
00:11:25.000 The story gets a little bit confusing, because both Muslims, as you well know, and LGBTQAIP, in a silent number, too, are protected classes on the left.
00:11:32.000 So here to make sense of it all, we actually turn to this week's Louder With Crowder marginalization rankings.
00:11:40.000 It is man!
00:11:45.000 Oh my God!
00:11:54.000 Thank you, Steven.
00:11:55.000 As you can see, the rankings have seen quite a shake-up this week, with marginalized status changing at a blistering pace.
00:12:01.000 As previously mentioned, due to their upset victory at the Birmingham School, we see Muslims jump over gays faster than I jump up for seconds at an all-you-can-eat feline buffet.
00:12:11.000 Elsewhere in the rankings, rumors of a Democrat resolution condemning anti-Semitism this week made it appear the Jews might be rising themselves.
00:12:19.000 But after Linda Sarsour attacked Nancy Pelosi, some Democrats are now demanding an anti-Islamophobia resolution, leaving the current resolution in doubt.
00:12:27.000 So Muslims have officially regained the number one spot.
00:12:31.000 I'd hate to be a goat in Fallujah tonight.
00:12:34.000 Most surprising is the shocking debut, Steven, of the transgalactic space peep.
00:12:38.000 I haven't seen anything this surprising since the look on Willy's face when he caught me with his daughter.
00:12:42.000 That's all for this week, Steven.
00:12:44.000 Now if you'll excuse me, I have Lucky resting in the slow cooker.
00:12:50.000 We spare no expense getting Al-Fan Retainer.
00:12:52.000 Never good to be a goat in Fallujah.
00:12:54.000 Never good.
00:12:55.000 There's never a good weekend.
00:12:56.000 Well, does that surprise you that the left has embraced your people, Muslims?
00:13:00.000 That's the number one... That's why I'm here, Stephen.
00:13:02.000 I want the embraces.
00:13:03.000 You know, we want you to see the softer side of ISIS.
00:13:07.000 Yeah, this is all good news.
00:13:08.000 Yeah, feel the jihadi softness.
00:13:10.000 Yes, of course, of course!
00:13:11.000 What's not to like?
00:13:12.000 Downy.
00:13:13.000 Well, same thing, actually, ironically, because when I shake your hand, I'm effectively squeezing the Charmin.
00:13:18.000 Finally, it looks like, look it up, it's ethnically accurate.
00:13:22.000 You'll get it.
00:13:24.000 It's amazing to me, like, you've heard this argument, they say Muslims created the modern numerical systems.
00:13:29.000 Okay, hold on, I'm not necessarily sure that you're correct about that.
00:13:31.000 Also, how about just using paper?
00:13:34.000 Why wipe the ass with the hand?
00:13:35.000 I tell you what, it is quite a luxury.
00:13:39.000 I will say this.
00:13:40.000 I like it here in America.
00:13:41.000 You like it, yeah.
00:13:42.000 It's pretty cool.
00:13:43.000 Two things that you like.
00:13:44.000 Toilet paper and raisin bran crunch.
00:13:45.000 Also, have you had cotton candy?
00:13:47.000 Yeah.
00:13:48.000 That's pretty cool.
00:13:49.000 It is pretty cool.
00:13:52.000 No, it's just, yeah, it is cotton-headed candy.
00:13:54.000 So finally it looks like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez might be in hot water.
00:13:59.000 A federal election commission complaint actually says that her chief of staff Could have funneled nearly one million dollars in donations.
00:14:06.000 This comes, uh, to where we have the overlay.
00:14:08.000 It's been suggested the congresswoman and her team could be facing major fines, potentially even jail time.
00:14:12.000 Uh, to be fair, campaign finance law complaints can sometimes just be political, of course.
00:14:16.000 Uh, so here to actually give her side of the story, everyone be quiet, we don't want to give her the respect she deserves, is, uh, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
00:14:23.000 Miss Cortez, are you there?
00:14:24.000 Thank you for being with us.
00:14:25.000 Yeah, okay, there is no violation, Stephen.
00:14:28.000 Okay?
00:14:28.000 There is, like, No violation.
00:14:32.000 All I said was welcome to the show.
00:14:34.000 That's really all I said.
00:14:35.000 Yeah, but you were thinking it, Steven.
00:14:37.000 You just can't stand the thought of me, a Latinx of color, being as powerful as you.
00:14:41.000 A man.
00:14:43.000 So you're making things up.
00:14:44.000 No, I just wanted to ask you about the FEC complaint that actually seems to say that you... That's hate speech!
00:14:51.000 The complaint?
00:14:53.000 Yes.
00:14:54.000 How exactly?
00:14:55.000 Because I hate that they're questioning me.
00:14:57.000 Okay, no, it's actually a complaint that's been filed against your chief of... Oh my gosh, Steven, this is so tired.
00:15:03.000 I'm over it.
00:15:05.000 Okay, first you're gonna try and call out my supposed campaign finance violations, then you'll call me a socialist, which I am, then you'll call me anti-Semitic, which won't check out because your researcher will clearly say that I get bagels from Slo Mo's in the Bronx every day.
00:15:15.000 I'm over it!
00:15:16.000 Okay, oh...
00:15:18.000 Congresswoman, are you okay?
00:15:20.000 Of course!
00:15:21.000 Why wouldn't I be okay?
00:15:22.000 Don't patronize me, Stephen!
00:15:23.000 Don't man-tronize me!
00:15:25.000 Okay, Congresswoman, I think you're avoiding the question about the FEC... You never said that to a man!
00:15:32.000 You're attacking me because I'm a powerful woman.
00:15:34.000 Okay, admit it.
00:15:34.000 You're man-tacking me.
00:15:36.000 No, no, it's entirely because you're avoiding the question.
00:15:38.000 Oh, okay.
00:15:39.000 You're man-voiding my question now.
00:15:41.000 Wait.
00:15:41.000 Wait, what question?
00:15:42.000 You didn't ask a question.
00:15:43.000 I asked a question.
00:15:46.000 Did you have a question?
00:15:48.000 Don't you dare man-terrogate me!
00:15:50.000 Okay, all right, this is going nowhere.
00:15:52.000 Congresswoman Cortez, everybody, I appreciate it.
00:15:54.000 Rude!
00:15:54.000 Don't you man up on me!
00:15:55.000 Don't man up on me!
00:15:58.000 Yeah, that's never gonna go anywhere well.
00:16:00.000 I was getting concerned about the ad.
00:16:01.000 No, you guys were muted, though.
00:16:02.000 I appreciate you being nice.
00:16:04.000 Hey, by the way, this week, not this week, the winner of last week's trivia contest is Sarah, is it Bethards?
00:16:11.000 I am so sweaty right now, even though it's cold.
00:16:13.000 It's really cold in here.
00:16:14.000 It's cold and I'm sweating because I'm very ill.
00:16:16.000 Anyways, the Twitter handle is sarahbeth for correctly answering that the stars were from
00:16:21.000 Cobra Kai that they appeared on the show.
00:16:23.000 So you're going to get a nice shirt.
00:16:25.000 Yes, by the way, I'm wearing, I am so sweaty right now even though it's cold.
00:16:28.000 Oh my gosh, yeah.
00:16:29.000 It's really cold in here.
00:16:30.000 It's cold and I'm sweating because I'm very, very ill.
00:16:32.000 It's like 40 degrees.
00:16:33.000 No, this is not good.
00:16:34.000 It's not 40.
00:16:35.000 Okay, so I actually do want to get into this.
00:16:37.000 Ocasio-Cortez is kind of the, uh, this, I guess, sort of, we'll call it the dark money scheme.
00:16:41.000 Here's the context.
00:16:43.000 Recent complaint to the FEC.
00:16:45.000 They allege that the campaign moved almost a million dollars, okay?
00:16:48.000 Contributions from a political, you know, PACs, political action committees.
00:16:51.000 They, by the way, here's what's important.
00:16:52.000 They established, funneling it to private companies, that they also controlled.
00:16:57.000 Former FEC Commissioner Brad Smith actually said that the scheme has opened Cortez up to, quote, massive reporting violations, probably at least some illegal contributions violations, exceeding the lawful limits.
00:17:07.000 Also, it looks like a lot of the money could have gone to her boyfriend.
00:17:10.000 Oh, nice, nice.
00:17:11.000 That's a bad move.
00:17:12.000 Yeah, that's good.
00:17:13.000 That's not going to look good on the resume.
00:17:14.000 And here's the thing.
00:17:15.000 I know that we can say this has been going on for a very long time.
00:17:17.000 And you guys feel free to jump in here at any point.
00:17:18.000 You can say this has been going on in politics for a long time.
00:17:20.000 And you know what?
00:17:22.000 You'd be correct.
00:17:23.000 Except for the fact that a huge part of Nina Pinto Santa Maria Cortez's appeal has been her support.
00:17:30.000 Sorry, I'm very, very sorry.
00:17:31.000 It's really hard for me to talk right now.
00:17:32.000 I don't know if you can hear me.
00:17:35.000 She railed against these exact kind of practices.
00:17:38.000 That's what's important to note.
00:17:39.000 If you don't believe me, here's actually a video.
00:17:41.000 I think it's the most watched political video on Twitter ever, with 40 million views, in which she rails, which was a cornerstone of her campaign, against what she called dark money in politics, screaming about how PACs and politicians can work together to currently move money for their own gain.
00:17:56.000 This is her.
00:17:56.000 This is straight from the googly's mouth.
00:18:01.000 And I want to get away with as much bad things as possible, ideally to enrich myself and advance my interests, even if that means putting my interests ahead of the American people.
00:18:16.000 So, if I want to run a campaign that is entirely funded by corporate political action committees, is there anything that legally prevents me from doing that?
00:18:26.000 No.
00:18:26.000 Turns out she's just taking notes here.
00:18:28.000 So let's say I'm a really, really bad guy.
00:18:30.000 And let's say I have some skeletons in my closet that I need to cover up so that I can get elected.
00:18:37.000 Would you agree with the statement?
00:18:39.000 Disagree?
00:18:40.000 Strongly disagree?
00:18:42.000 Let's put that aside.
00:18:42.000 Should steer clear of that one.
00:18:44.000 She's just taking notes when you look back.
00:18:45.000 She thought she was being facetious.
00:18:47.000 She's like, I'm asking for a friend of a friend.
00:18:50.000 Because this congressman's friend, whose best friend's girlfriend's sister's boyfriend
00:18:54.000 knows this guy who saw Bernie Sanders pass out at 31 Flavors last night.
00:18:59.000 She's like, does this qualify as legal advice that I can depend on in the next campaign?
00:19:03.000 Yes.
00:19:03.000 How would you go about doing so?
00:19:07.000 So it's really interesting that the reason that this is important is that there is a lot of reporting that happens when you have a campaign that gets money, right?
00:19:14.000 They have to spend it, they have to report all of that.
00:19:15.000 PACs have the same kind of issue.
00:19:17.000 The companies I was just expressing my love for AOC.
00:19:20.000 She's got some great ideas.
00:19:20.000 and they don't have to say anything about what they do with the money.
00:19:23.000 So it's incredibly important that, and she just said, what if you have some skeletons
00:19:26.000 in your closet?
00:19:28.000 That's exactly why you do what she did.
00:19:30.000 Because maybe you do have some skeletons in your closet.
00:19:31.000 Something else that, were you about to say something Mahmoud?
00:19:32.000 Oh no, I was just expressing my love for AOC.
00:19:36.000 She's got some great ideas, you guys should totally enact them.
00:19:42.000 Somehow that seems self-serving.
00:19:43.000 And by the way, this whole idea of a living wage, we're going to do a segment on this
00:19:47.000 next week, mainly because she tweeted me this week, and so we're hoping to have her on the
00:19:51.000 show.
00:19:52.000 Talking about systemic discrimination.
00:19:54.000 You know, the whole living wage that she's only paying her top staffers $80,000.
00:19:56.000 Right.
00:19:58.000 It's actually below the cutoff where they would have to disclose this.
00:20:00.000 Basically, it would be below the cutoff of transparency laws.
00:20:02.000 So effectively, she doesn't have to disclose these people if they're only making $80,000.
00:20:05.000 I don't know what the cutoff is.
00:20:07.000 126.
00:20:08.000 Is that what it is?
00:20:09.000 It is 126.
00:20:09.000 Chief of Staff would be making more and he's the guy who is in a little bit of hot water right now.
00:20:14.000 Right.
00:20:14.000 And they don't have to disclose outside sources of income as well.
00:20:18.000 So it's brilliant.
00:20:20.000 Honestly, I will say, I have thought that she isn't the brightest bulb, but this is brilliantly orchestrated.
00:20:26.000 It could just be by our campaign manager.
00:20:27.000 By the way, speaking of brilliantly orchestrated, you know you've seen the Oscars livestream now.
00:20:31.000 Four strikes, we fought them.
00:20:32.000 Hit the notification bell if you're subscribed because that may not mean a whole lot.
00:20:35.000 And also bookmark this page.
00:20:37.000 Come back to it, because notifications may not mean a whole lot in the future, but join MugClub and subscribe on iTunes for the audio version.
00:20:42.000 There are some exclusives on there.
00:20:44.000 Alright, so here's another point that I think we want to get to.
00:20:46.000 As far as I know, and I don't want to speak completely in the affirmative here, no attention from MSNBC, CNN, the left-wing outlets, certainly not on Huffington Post or CNN.
00:20:55.000 As a matter of fact, the one story that I think I did see in Huffington Post was, conservatives are trying to tarnish AOC's corporation.
00:21:00.000 That's exactly what you see.
00:21:01.000 It gets turned around every single time.
00:21:03.000 When the right does it, this isn't just a whiteaboutism, but, okay, do you remember Dinesh D'Souza?
00:21:06.000 Yeah.
00:21:06.000 Yeah.
00:21:07.000 A lot of people are like, oh, Dinesh D'Souza violated campaign finance.
00:21:09.000 Here's what actually happened.
00:21:10.000 He wanted to donate more than $5,000 to a campaign, okay?
00:21:13.000 Yeah.
00:21:13.000 And it was a friend of his who was running, I believe in California, didn't win.
00:21:17.000 So he asked his wife and two friends to do so on his behalf, and he would pay them back later.
00:21:21.000 We're just talking about three $5,000 checks.
00:21:23.000 That's it.
00:21:25.000 He was imprisoned in a halfway house.
00:21:27.000 Thank God a halfway house, because he would not fare well in a penitentiary.
00:21:31.000 Almost a year and fined $30,000.
00:21:32.000 With Cortez, we're actually dealing with close to at least seven figures.
00:21:38.000 Potentially.
00:21:39.000 And by the way, we're not talking about a one-time offense in giving money to a friend, running for office, or didn't even win.
00:21:43.000 We're talking about systemic, remember that word, Cortez?
00:21:45.000 A systemic problem in that the money was transferred in huge lump sums.
00:21:49.000 To the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars for vague services like strategic consulting, as far as services rendered.
00:21:55.000 We literally have no way of knowing what this money was used for or who ended up using it.
00:21:59.000 Again, this is important only because of the whole... We've talked about this before.
00:22:03.000 Jack Dorsey talked about this.
00:22:04.000 I think we'll talk about this with Alex Jones.
00:22:06.000 They're not pushing for transparency anymore in the realm of free speech.
00:22:10.000 But they've tried to transition and say, we're the ones pushing for transparency as it relates to election finance laws, campaign finance laws.
00:22:15.000 They're not!
00:22:16.000 No, not at all.
00:22:17.000 And they had to jump through an exceedingly difficult number of hoops to make this happen.
00:22:20.000 Right.
00:22:21.000 So this wasn't something that they were like, Oh, we're just going to set this up.
00:22:23.000 Like he had to set up two different companies.
00:22:25.000 The big issue that I think right now is that it's nobody can really understand.
00:22:28.000 There were two FEC people that were interviewed to say, Hey, what do you think of this?
00:22:31.000 Former FEC people.
00:22:32.000 And they're like, they're in, they're probably in some trouble here.
00:22:35.000 Like this is, there's definitely smoke here.
00:22:37.000 It's going to be hard to prove, but you only do this if you're trying to hide something.
00:22:40.000 The explanation that was given though is so convoluted.
00:22:43.000 They're like, I'm a legal expert.
00:22:45.000 I don't know what they just said.
00:22:47.000 It's very difficult to follow, so we'll see how this goes.
00:22:49.000 Seems like an honest mistake.
00:22:53.000 It seems like racketeering may have been an honest mistake, too, for the drug kingpin.
00:22:56.000 Hold on!
00:22:57.000 Cover for me!
00:22:57.000 I have to cough!
00:22:58.000 Cough!
00:22:58.000 Cough!
00:22:58.000 Oh my gosh.
00:23:00.000 But either way, it's highly, highly illegal.
00:23:01.000 Thank God the audience couldn't hear me.
00:23:03.000 That was a wet one.
00:23:04.000 They have no idea.
00:23:05.000 That was a gross cough.
00:23:06.000 You may want to check your sleeve.
00:23:09.000 You know, when she filed to run, I think you might be giving them a little bit too much credit, because when they filed to run, they filed in the wrong district, and then they had to refile to run in the current district that she represents.
00:23:21.000 Is it possible That the people, the same people, who filed in the wrong district, tripped up on some campaign finance money.
00:23:35.000 And went out of their way to hide it, but didn't know that was bad.
00:23:37.000 I was thinking you were going to zig when I expected you to zag, and you just zagged.
00:23:40.000 I'm not a rocket doctor.
00:23:42.000 I don't know how this works.
00:23:43.000 No, and here's something that's important.
00:23:44.000 You know, you talk to Bernie, and they talk about PACs, and they talk about corruption in politics, taking big money out of politics.
00:23:50.000 I get it that people are remarkably inconsistent, okay?
00:23:53.000 But here's something that really, we've done a whole, I think we've done a whole segment if you search our channel, Citizens United, okay?
00:23:58.000 They bring up Citizens United a whole lot, you know, Bernie Sanders, and it's, we have to overturn Citizens United, get big donors out of politics.
00:24:04.000 You know, hold on a second.
00:24:05.000 Hold on, one second here.
00:24:07.000 Citizens United, for people who don't know, it was initially about an anti-Clinton film that the Clinton campaign tried to suppress, okay?
00:24:14.000 That's what people don't understand about Citizens United.
00:24:16.000 And the case was about the fact that this media production company, the company basically making this anti-Hillary Clinton film, documentary, had First Amendment protection even though they were a company.
00:24:26.000 Right, even though they were a corporation.
00:24:28.000 So, what it was about, the Clintons trying to suppress an anti-Clinton film, and the court said they have the right to do this under the guise of the First Amendment.
00:24:36.000 Now, that being said, that set a precedent.
00:24:39.000 This is what the case was about.
00:24:40.000 It set a precedent that allowed corporations to funnel money into PACs.
00:24:43.000 That's a little bit of a simplification, absolutely, but it's more accurate than what the left has told you about Citizens United, that it was just about PACs going in, wanting to give super donors over to our reptilian overlords.
00:24:53.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:24:54.000 And doesn't that remind you of something?
00:24:55.000 Dinesh D'Souza, when he had his issues, was when he released his movie, when he was going so hard after Obama to try to show America, like, this is not the way that we want to go.
00:25:04.000 And all of a sudden, this random rule that nobody ever gets in trouble for.
00:25:07.000 Didn't Rosie O'Donnell do something?
00:25:08.000 No, people do get in trouble.
00:25:11.000 People do get in trouble.
00:25:12.000 They don't get put in jail.
00:25:13.000 They don't get the same kind of punishment.
00:25:15.000 Right.
00:25:15.000 And didn't Rosie O'Donnell do something way, way, way, way, way, way worse than just Rosie O'Donnell?
00:25:21.000 Yeah, she had almost no consequences at all.
00:25:24.000 Yeah, this kind of stuff happens all the time.
00:25:25.000 It's not about the law, it's about the law being applied equally.
00:25:29.000 Right.
00:25:29.000 And that's something that's really important.
00:25:30.000 And especially when you're talking about government being used as an arm to prosecute people.
00:25:35.000 Listen, I don't want Donald Trump prosecuting people who disagree with him.
00:25:37.000 No.
00:25:38.000 That's why any time he gets into expanding libel laws with the media, I go, hold on a second, I'm really uncomfortable with this.
00:25:42.000 I do think consistency is important.
00:25:45.000 And if you look at the way the laws are applied, they haven't been applied equally.
00:25:48.000 He did it, don't get me wrong, Dinesh Jasrutha did it.
00:25:50.000 Yeah, he did.
00:25:51.000 He's been on the show with it.
00:25:52.000 I'm like, well, you did it.
00:25:52.000 You did do the crime.
00:25:53.000 It's been weaponized, though.
00:25:54.000 It has been weaponized.
00:25:56.000 And I don't think that Cortez is, as far as I know right now, at the time of this video, facing any jail time or fines.
00:26:01.000 But the hypocrisy here, it's truly breathtaking.
00:26:05.000 I don't even know how to set up this next clip.
00:26:07.000 But she continued, just let's watch it.
00:26:09.000 Green light for hush money.
00:26:10.000 I can do all sorts of terrible things.
00:26:13.000 It's totally legal right now for me to pay people off.
00:26:16.000 So I use my special interest, dark money funded campaign to pay off folks that I need to pay off and get elected.
00:26:22.000 So now I'm elected and I've got the power to draft, lobby, and shape the laws that govern the United States of America.
00:26:31.000 Who is describing themselves for $700, Mr. Trebek?
00:26:35.000 By the way, heart goes out to Trebek, the pancreatic cancer.
00:26:37.000 That's really rough, but I do like the guy.
00:26:38.000 The guy's an American, basically an American institution.
00:26:40.000 Oh man, I just stepped on my own joke and now everyone's going to feel bad.
00:26:43.000 Oh, no!
00:26:43.000 You like that joke.
00:26:44.000 She is describing herself.
00:26:45.000 She's like that girl basically who can just walk up.
00:26:47.000 She might as well just walked up behind everyone that's hearing, put her hands in front of their eyes and go, guess who?
00:26:54.000 Guess who I'm describing?
00:26:55.000 Is it you?
00:26:56.000 Is it you?
00:26:57.000 It's not even facetious.
00:26:58.000 I'm actually just trying to get intel.
00:27:01.000 She went to her chief of staff and said, will you write down what we did so that I can save this as the bad example?
00:27:06.000 Yes, she used, by her standards, dark money to get elected.
00:27:09.000 And yes, now she is shaping our laws.
00:27:12.000 Is this really the kind of person that you want in power?
00:27:14.000 One who can rail against dark money one sec in the PACs?
00:27:17.000 This is not a new concept, while knowing, though, that she is doing exactly that.
00:27:21.000 Look at that!
00:27:21.000 And I know people talk about Donald Trump lying, and I think we can all agree he's done that in the past.
00:27:25.000 The difference, we were just talking about this before the show, is Donald Trump He's right about some things, even if he doesn't understand why he's right.
00:27:33.000 You know, he might say, no, listen, listen, you guys screw up the housing market, excuse me, okay, excuse me, listen, no, Freddie, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, okay, fake news, you're wrong.
00:27:42.000 And you're like, I don't think he understands what he's talking about there, but he is right.
00:27:45.000 Yeah, exactly, nobody understands.
00:27:46.000 He's got people that know what he's talking about.
00:27:47.000 Whereas Cortez doesn't understand what she's talking about, and she's incorrect.
00:27:49.000 She's incredibly, incredibly dangerous.
00:27:51.000 She has zero clue.
00:27:53.000 No, don't say that, because they're gonna hold that out as a badge of honor, like, I'm a dangerous woman!
00:27:57.000 No, but that's what I'm...
00:28:02.000 That poses problems in our system of government and I guarantee you that she thinks all of the fans that she has right now, the people that are following her or kind of whatever on social media, are actually there because she has good ideas.
00:28:15.000 We're there because it's a dumpster fire lady, okay?
00:28:19.000 We're waiting for you to do something stupid.
00:28:21.000 Next, you're providing material every single We'll get to that right before we go to Alex Jones.
00:28:25.000 No, but it's fun to watch, Gerald.
00:28:27.000 I mean, it's fun, she's angry, I like the jacket.
00:28:31.000 It's everything about it!
00:28:33.000 It's great TV!
00:28:34.000 Well, if you want the demise of the United States as you purportedly do... I mean, let's be honest, okay?
00:28:40.000 She looks like she picked that jacket out of a lineup from the Leaving Neverland cast.
00:28:46.000 Anyone who watched Leaving Neverland, that is funny, go watch it.
00:28:49.000 It was very disturbing.
00:28:51.000 Here's the thing that really bothers me about Cortez, okay?
00:28:56.000 The sort of praise you hear of her, even from conservatives as well, and you've heard this about Bernie, at least she's genuine.
00:29:01.000 At least Cortez is authentic.
00:29:04.000 She's authentic.
00:29:05.000 She believes what she claims.
00:29:07.000 Who cares?
00:29:07.000 Who cares?
00:29:08.000 I don't care if Bernie's authentic.
00:29:10.000 I don't even think he's inauthentic because he has three houses.
00:29:12.000 I really don't.
00:29:13.000 I bring it up because I think it's hypocritical, but I think he probably believes what he espouses.
00:29:17.000 But it doesn't matter.
00:29:18.000 She and he, they're just genuinely selfish.
00:29:20.000 Socialism is an inherently selfish worldview.
00:29:23.000 She acts like taking other people's money is altruistic, right?
00:29:26.000 Okay, me saying that I don't want to take money.
00:29:29.000 I'm not, I don't have a right to take money from millionaires or billionaires, even though they make money, more money than me.
00:29:35.000 I am not amongst them.
00:29:36.000 I'm sure they are shocked to find out that this program does not place me amongst their ranks.
00:29:42.000 I don't want to take their money.
00:29:43.000 That's the opposite of selfish.
00:29:44.000 Them saying that they want to take your money is.
00:29:47.000 Wanting to keep money that you've earned?
00:29:48.000 Reasonable.
00:29:49.000 Wanting to take someone's money that you haven't?
00:29:52.000 Selfish.
00:29:53.000 And they don't even run their campaigns any differently.
00:29:56.000 They redistribute wealth however they like.
00:29:59.000 And I'm just, I have this frog in my throat here, and it's unbelievable.
00:30:02.000 Somebody help me!
00:30:03.000 Somebody help me while I grab a sip of water!
00:30:05.000 I can't, I feel, I'm like the Charlie in the box, right?
00:30:08.000 No one, no one wants to listen to a Cortez in the box!
00:30:11.000 Well, the solution is to get rid of all the billionaires, but the solution's also to take all the billionaires' money, so it's difficult.
00:30:16.000 You have to do one or the other, I think.
00:30:18.000 It really is a selfish ideology.
00:30:20.000 And Bernie and Cortez, they're just overgrown, selfish children who just happen to have gotten older.
00:30:27.000 She's running her entire campaign with this world view.
00:30:31.000 You didn't owe him that money.
00:30:33.000 So?
00:30:33.000 I want it.
00:30:35.000 I want it.
00:30:35.000 Well, hold on a second.
00:30:36.000 That's a baby.
00:30:36.000 Yeah, but I don't want it.
00:30:38.000 Can I kill it?
00:30:41.000 Apparently so.
00:30:42.000 She's like a bald eagle stuck in an oil spill.
00:30:44.000 Can I kill it?
00:30:46.000 Can I kill it?
00:30:46.000 You're cleaning them off with Dawn.
00:30:51.000 By your own admission here, hold on a second.
00:30:52.000 It says that you're unwilling to work.
00:30:53.000 So what?
00:30:54.000 I still want a monthly paycheck.
00:30:56.000 I want it.
00:30:57.000 But you're unwilling to work.
00:31:00.000 But can I have more money?
00:31:02.000 No.
00:31:03.000 That's not how this works.
00:31:04.000 This is what it ultimately comes down to, the progressive worldview.
00:31:07.000 And for some reason, we've accepted this myth, or society at large has accepted this.
00:31:12.000 I don't want to even say this myth, but this false narrative, and I know that sounds so pedestrian and overplayed, but it really is a false narrative that it is somehow compassionate, that it is somehow selfless to spend somebody else's money.
00:31:23.000 No.
00:31:24.000 Right now, if anyone in this room tried to take someone else's money and spend it, they would be immediately fired.
00:31:30.000 Because I'm compassionate, and he's a dick.
00:31:32.000 He's done that before, multiple times.
00:31:34.000 Five times.
00:31:35.000 You knew that there was more money in your check than is usually allotted and you took it anyway!
00:31:39.000 It was supposed to go to me.
00:31:39.000 I did.
00:31:40.000 Yeah, it was supposed to go to you.
00:31:41.000 I said thank you.
00:31:41.000 That's it.
00:31:42.000 That's a power move right there.
00:31:45.000 It's the absolute worst thing to do is to take other people's money.
00:31:47.000 It has had the worst results.
00:31:49.000 It's not the worst thing to do.
00:31:52.000 No, it is.
00:31:53.000 Economically speaking, it'll have the worst results.
00:31:59.000 The world has lost countless millions of people.
00:32:02.000 Countries ruined and thrown in the trash bin of history.
00:32:04.000 And yet these people try to go back to those policies and say, this is compassionate.
00:32:08.000 No, it's not compassionate when millions of your citizens kill each other for food!
00:32:11.000 It hasn't been tried right.
00:32:12.000 It apparently hasn't.
00:32:14.000 It hasn't been tried right except for nearly everywhere outside of the United States.
00:32:18.000 And even some tried to drive here!
00:32:20.000 And they tried it, then they reversed it, and then they went back.
00:32:22.000 And it's just, listen, it's just absolutely, by the way, something else.
00:32:25.000 Congresswoman Cortez actually did respond to me on Twitter regarding, actually today,
00:32:29.000 about systemic discrimination.
00:32:31.000 So I asked, could you give me, yeah, I'll keep this up here.
00:32:32.000 Could you give me any examples of systemic discrimination?
00:32:35.000 And here's the thing.
00:32:35.000 People, I want you to comment, let her know at AOC.
00:32:38.000 Be respectful, because I do think that a dialogue engaging will be productive here.
00:32:42.000 But she brought up, and notice she doesn't bring up a source.
00:32:44.000 She goes, just last week, the Washington Post reported on a $23 billion racial funding
00:32:48.000 gap in K through 12 education.
00:32:49.000 And then the other examples of systemic discrimination she uses, mass incarceration, banks targeting black
00:32:55.000 Americans.
00:32:56.000 You can take that off the screen.
00:32:57.000 Banks apparently targeting black Americans This is one.
00:33:02.000 I don't want to go through them, right?
00:33:04.000 I don't want to parse those right now because I would like Congresswoman Nina Pinto Santa Maria Cortez to come on this show we can talk about it, but I was surprised that she picked those three examples that I was quite shocking it was Quite shocking, yes.
00:33:20.000 My cousin actually is American.
00:33:21.000 He's working here at the bank and he just got the job.
00:33:25.000 He's actually doing the black targeting trading today.
00:33:28.000 Oh really?
00:33:28.000 Incidentally.
00:33:29.000 It's like a three-day thing that you have to do.
00:33:32.000 We'll talk about it later, but the idea of predatory lending.
00:33:37.000 It's like the fact that they targeted black Americans.
00:33:39.000 So banks said, Hey, kid, come over here.
00:33:42.000 Listen, I got a deal for you.
00:33:43.000 The racket was, would you like some money that you have no realistic possibility of paying back?
00:33:49.000 Here you go.
00:33:49.000 I'm going to make it rain, kid.
00:33:51.000 Why does that work?
00:33:52.000 How can someone be targeting black people?
00:33:55.000 Again, this just comes down to a selfish worldview.
00:33:57.000 When you look back at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, you look back at the housing bubble.
00:33:59.000 It's like, OK, you're going to have to give money to people who have no business being at home.
00:34:04.000 And it disproportionately affected black people.
00:34:05.000 Again, this is the law of unintended consequences here, right?
00:34:09.000 Good intentions from the left.
00:34:10.000 Look at what happened with the housing bubble.
00:34:11.000 It's like, oh, OK, you're going to have to lend.
00:34:14.000 But there's no, how about, any credit?
00:34:17.000 No credit.
00:34:18.000 How about, what's the FICO score?
00:34:19.000 No FICO score.
00:34:20.000 All right, well, then how about money down?
00:34:21.000 No money down.
00:34:23.000 Well, then I guess it's going to be a crazy interest rate, like 12%?
00:34:25.000 2%.
00:34:25.000 Well, how about?
00:34:27.000 Ten.
00:34:28.000 Two percent!
00:34:29.000 Because the government just tells you that that's what you're going to do, and then you see a housing bubble.
00:34:32.000 And you know who it hurts?
00:34:33.000 The black people.
00:34:34.000 Disproportionately, it affects black people who saved, who have business being in those homes.
00:34:39.000 They have a right to be in those homes because then they have money down, and they should actually be taking out that loan.
00:34:43.000 But guess what?
00:34:43.000 They can't get in there because someone else, now the government has determined, is a victim of their own socioeconomic status, and the bank can't foreclose upon them because they bought three homes that they couldn't afford.
00:34:52.000 Again, these are the unintended consequences that nobody thinks about, because it's an inherently selfish worldview, and an inherently selfish worldview, just like a five-year-old who wants more cotton candy, is selfish.
00:35:02.000 It thinks very short-term.
00:35:03.000 Alright, we have to go.
00:35:04.000 Alex Jones after this, and thank you so much to Mahmood for being in this week.
00:35:07.000 Thank you.
00:35:08.000 What do you need besides a miracle?
00:35:24.000 Guns.
00:35:25.000 Lots of them.
00:35:34.000 I'm Trinity.
00:35:35.000 No, you're Pantelis.
00:35:37.000 Cut!
00:35:37.000 No, in this film he is playing Trinity.
00:35:40.000 You're Trinity.
00:35:41.000 Is that all you need?
00:35:43.000 Yeah, this is the new Walther All Steel Frame Q5 Match.
00:35:51.000 Red dot ready.
00:35:53.000 It is all I need.
00:35:55.000 The All Steel Walther Q5 Match.
00:35:56.000 It has good balance and a 5.6 pound trigger pull.
00:35:59.000 steel walter q5 match it has good balance and a 5.6 pound trigger pull try the walter
00:36:08.000 uh greetings america Hopper here.
00:36:14.000 I just wanted to tell you that on my eBay profile for sale right now is one doggo Argentino puppy named Betty and for the price of the current offer zero dollars.
00:36:32.000 I will pay shipping.
00:36:46.000 alright glad to have our next guest.
00:36:56.000 Always there, you can turn it down there, Abby.
00:36:58.000 We were just talking during the break and he was saying, you know, you can have me on the show as often as you want.
00:37:03.000 I want you to be on the show.
00:37:05.000 You know him from InfoWars.com, creator, owner, host of the Alex Jones Show on InfoWars.
00:37:11.000 Been making the rounds here recently on Joe Rogan.
00:37:14.000 Mr. Jones, how are you, sir?
00:37:16.000 It is good to be here with you, Mr. Crowder.
00:37:18.000 Big fan of the broadcast, so are my kids.
00:37:20.000 You know what?
00:37:20.000 I'm always... I'll tell you this.
00:37:21.000 I'm always a little worried about you being on the show because I always feel as... I'm always worried that you'll come on the show and ask me why I haven't had you on the show, and then we get into a fight.
00:37:30.000 But we never really had a fight, so I totally get that you're doing a great job.
00:37:33.000 I watch it all the time.
00:37:34.000 Do lots of skits, lots of...
00:37:36.000 You know, avenge yourself.
00:37:37.000 You don't have a lot of guests on these days, so I'm just happy to be here and the great work you're doing over at CRTV and all the rest of it.
00:37:43.000 Well, thank you very much.
00:37:43.000 I'm happy to have you on.
00:37:45.000 We've kind of changed roles here.
00:37:46.000 I notice you're in a short sleeve, or usually you wear a suit, and usually I'm in something a little shorter sleeve, but you just had a recent surgery.
00:37:52.000 Now, was it your bicep to your elbow or to the shoulder?
00:37:53.000 Because that's a huge difference in the surgery.
00:37:56.000 Yeah, the shoulder would be much, much worse.
00:38:00.000 This is a ruptured bicep.
00:38:02.000 They just fixed it last week.
00:38:03.000 I shouldn't be out of the cast, but it's the miracles of modern medicine.
00:38:08.000 It is.
00:38:09.000 And I know sometimes people have put you in since you're more...
00:38:12.000 They would say conspiratorial with anti-vaxxers, and I know that you're not, and I know you don't shun the miracles of modern medicine.
00:38:19.000 Pardon me, I'm very, very sick.
00:38:21.000 There's no way I'm pronouncing that broad from Twitter's name correctly today.
00:38:24.000 Before we get on to the censorship issue, with you and kind of the deplatforming, first, what has the feedback been like after your latest Joe Rogan appearance?
00:38:33.000 Because you guys were going back and forth for a bit, a lot of fighting.
00:38:37.000 How did you two bury the hatchet so quickly?
00:38:40.000 Well, I didn't like the fact that Jack Dorsey went on there and just spewed BS a month ago.
00:38:46.000 Right.
00:38:46.000 And the fact that Joe was like going over Democratic Party talking points.
00:38:49.000 I've known Joe over 20 years.
00:38:51.000 We've been pretty good friends.
00:38:53.000 A lot of partying, a lot of hanging out, you know, again over two decades.
00:38:56.000 And so I got madder and madder and madder that he says on air, I'm not going to have Alex on, but then he's going to have my enemies on.
00:39:05.000 So I kind of got Upset with him.
00:39:07.000 Right.
00:39:09.000 But then, once he had me on, we had a great four hour plus podcast.
00:39:12.000 It's the biggest podcast he's ever done.
00:39:14.000 Something like 20 million views right now, 10 million views on YouTube, 10 million views roughly on iTunes.
00:39:21.000 So it's one of the biggest podcasts ever.
00:39:24.000 And he's got nothing but positive feedback, 97% positive feedback.
00:39:28.000 Conversely, the head of Twitter goes on a month ago, he had 80 plus percent negative feedback.
00:39:34.000 So as we were talking before we went live here, Jack and his mother, I guess her name is Vajaya God, literally it's her name, she goes on and holds his hand and says,
00:39:45.000 We're not censoring anybody, but we did take Alex Jones off for beating a kid up.
00:39:50.000 And there was no video.
00:39:51.000 They didn't name the kid's name.
00:39:52.000 You know, when you hear about a murder or a kidnapping or an assault.
00:39:55.000 To be clear, I don't think I said you beat up a kid.
00:39:56.000 I think they claimed that you posted a video of a kid being beaten up, which I also don't know to be true.
00:40:01.000 But again, that would be entirely... I didn't.
00:40:03.000 No.
00:40:03.000 I'm pretty sure we have, by the way.
00:40:06.000 I'll take those arrows because I'm pretty sure we have.
00:40:09.000 You're absolutely right.
00:40:11.000 Forbes and others said I beat up a kid and then showed the ABC, NBC video of the 10-year-old hitting the adult.
00:40:17.000 The guy knocks him down.
00:40:18.000 They just wouldn't pick that.
00:40:20.000 And so then they said I was taken down for beating up a kid.
00:40:23.000 They had to retract it.
00:40:24.000 By the time she said it on air as a lawyer, she said, oh, well, you know, he showed a video of a kid being beat up.
00:40:30.000 It's insane.
00:40:31.000 So why can't I show a video and everyone else can show my point?
00:40:35.000 Right.
00:40:35.000 No, exactly.
00:40:36.000 And I say that because I'm pretty sure we have, and we probably provided some... I mean, we show videos almost on a loop, like a morphine drip, of Muslim men beating their wives in Saudi Arabia all the time, just to keep it at the forefront of people's mind.
00:40:47.000 We usually play the chicken dance to it.
00:40:48.000 So I'll take the flak there.
00:40:50.000 We are far more distasteful than you in the realm of domestic abuse videos, Alex.
00:40:56.000 So I take it you watched the recent podcast with Joe and Jack Dorsey coming back and Tim Pool.
00:41:01.000 Did you think that that was kind of a better sequel?
00:41:05.000 Well, it took me from hating Joe to wanting to marry him.
00:41:07.000 I mean, I'm not gay, but, you know.
00:41:09.000 The point is, they destroyed that lawyer, Vajaya God God.
00:41:16.000 They destroyed Jack.
00:41:17.000 I mean, it was like a suicide mission.
00:41:19.000 They come on there and BS that we're not censoring conservatives when we've got all their internal videos from Project Veritas and all their admissions and the incredible censorship.
00:41:28.000 And they allow Antifa to dox people, but nobody else can.
00:41:32.000 And so, yes.
00:41:33.000 This just shows the disconnect and how robotic these corporate heads are.
00:41:38.000 It was actually frightening.
00:41:39.000 I thought it was actually a terrifying podcast.
00:41:41.000 Well, I think there were some good questions, some pointed questions, but for me, kind of the moment where I noticed, ah, I don't think Jack's going to get it, I don't think they can fix this, is when he unironically used the term LGBTQA.
00:41:54.000 About two times.
00:41:55.000 And he didn't realize that, you know what, not even the gay in the LGBTQA are on board with just tacking on every single letter to that acronym.
00:42:04.000 I don't know that they can fix that blind spot.
00:42:06.000 That was, when I was watching it, I thought Joe and Tim did a good job of holding their feet to the fire, but it felt like a hopeless endeavor.
00:42:12.000 I don't want to be a nihilist, but do you feel like that sometimes when you watch this, especially given your situation?
00:42:18.000 Yeah, it frightened me because she said not just that I got in trouble for showing child endangerment, which wasn't true.
00:42:26.000 The clip was everywhere in the country.
00:42:27.000 I mean, I got to it late.
00:42:31.000 They then moved on and said that I said use battle rifles on the media, but they didn't show a clip.
00:42:35.000 They took a 38-minute podcast I did one night, but I had a few beers.
00:42:40.000 But none of it had to do with violence.
00:42:41.000 It was like, we don't want to be violent.
00:42:43.000 We've got to use the criminal judicial system.
00:42:45.000 And Antifa says they're coming to the houses of law enforcement and Congress to kill them.
00:42:49.000 You better have your battle rifles ready.
00:42:50.000 So they played this word salad game, you know, like the refrigerator magnets, where you change the words around.
00:42:55.000 And she reads this statement, it's literally one word with quotes around another word, and says that, well, you know, Joe, we had to take him off.
00:43:03.000 He was saying, kill the media.
00:43:05.000 I would never do that.
00:43:06.000 A, I don't believe in offensive violence.
00:43:08.000 I'm a libertarian.
00:43:09.000 B, I'd be arrested.
00:43:11.000 I should be off the air if I was on air saying, get your battle rifles ready and kill the media.
00:43:16.000 I'm the media.
00:43:17.000 I don't want people killing me.
00:43:19.000 I've never said that.
00:43:20.000 And I challenged them.
00:43:21.000 I put out a million dollar reward when they had All these different talk show hosts covering him, and they had Lester Holt, and they had Jack Dorsey on with him.
00:43:30.000 And he's like, you know, it's pretty scary.
00:43:32.000 He said, use battle rifles to kill the media.
00:43:34.000 And he said, we're going to do all this.
00:43:35.000 He goes, I know it's scary, but we got to keep him on.
00:43:38.000 It was all just a big staged event to act like they were, you know, free speech, but they were still planning to get rid of me.
00:43:43.000 And I offered a million dollars.
00:43:45.000 I had lawyers send them letters.
00:43:47.000 I called Twitter and I said, I did not say that.
00:43:49.000 And they keep saying it.
00:43:51.000 So I'm not the victim.
00:43:53.000 I think Twitter is the victim of their own delusion where they tell gigantic whopper lies that have no basis in reality.
00:44:01.000 I mean, listen, Steven Crowder.
00:44:03.000 If I was going to accuse you of saying kill the media with battle rifles, would I not show the damn clip?
00:44:09.000 Yeah, I will say this, and you and I disagree on quite a bit, but you are pretty good about that, about showing clips contextually.
00:44:14.000 And we do that too.
00:44:16.000 Do you believe this when you do your broadcasts?
00:44:18.000 I always say, listen, this is kind of a standing order I have to everyone on my staff.
00:44:21.000 Don't make an argument for the left.
00:44:24.000 If they can make it for you, always show their clip and provide all context needed for us to rebut.
00:44:30.000 And that's why we get hit with so many copyrights, because we'll just roll Seth Meyers for two minutes, or Samantha Bee, or Cortez.
00:44:37.000 Exactly, you've got to show Cortez saying the Earth will be over in 12 years or no one will believe it.
00:44:43.000 And then we play it and we get a copyright.
00:44:45.000 No, she's a public figure, she said the world will be over in 12 years.
00:44:48.000 I'm going to play the damn clip, because it's unbelievable!
00:44:51.000 Yeah.
00:44:52.000 Have you seen, by the way, I know you're not on YouTube now, but it seems as though there might be some retroactive changes here after listening to Dorsey and Vijaya.
00:45:00.000 Yeah, the road to redemption.
00:45:02.000 Right.
00:45:03.000 And you know, one thing I will say, I know a lot of people will watch this and say, well, I'm not in with Alex Jones.
00:45:06.000 I don't agree with him.
00:45:07.000 But here's the thing.
00:45:08.000 I understand where people feel that way, but they also need to look at you as a cautionary tale of the fact that it can happen to anyone.
00:45:13.000 Let's take this example recently where you just brought up right now.
00:45:16.000 Let's use that because you just brought it up to battle rifles.
00:45:18.000 Now, I wasn't Fully aware of the quote or the clip, right?
00:45:21.000 Because I didn't show it.
00:45:22.000 And I didn't have time to fully research it.
00:45:23.000 I immediately assumed it was allegorical if taken in context.
00:45:27.000 And I thought, man, if they can say that this was one of the retroactive strikes we found.
00:45:31.000 And we know you were deplatformed by everyone in the same weekend.
00:45:34.000 So they're all looking for a reason, right?
00:45:36.000 Give me a reason.
00:45:36.000 I'm going, hold on a second.
00:45:37.000 If they can remove someone for even just saying, hey, this is a call to arms metaphorically to fight back against the media, they can do it.
00:45:44.000 To anyone, and I do think people need to take notice of that regardless of whether they agree with you or not.
00:45:49.000 Well, that's it.
00:45:50.000 And then people think they protect themselves when they build a straw man about me and then attack it.
00:45:56.000 They go, oh, well, we just throw them under the bus.
00:45:57.000 We'll be safe.
00:45:58.000 No, you set the precedent for everybody else.
00:46:00.000 So what they did is they could have gone back and found some real stuff I said out of context, but still some things I said later that I'm like, I shouldn't have said that.
00:46:08.000 It didn't come off as tongue in cheek, you know, whatever.
00:46:11.000 But but with the case of The items that you mentioned, I would never even tongue-in-cheek say, you're coming over the hill, you know, it's the Alamo, get your guns ready because they're gonna take it out of context.
00:46:23.000 Right.
00:46:24.000 So if one thing, the left lying 10 years ago, yeah, I'd said stuff like that allegorically.
00:46:29.000 I'm not about to do that.
00:46:31.000 So the point was, I'm like, we need to peacefully through the courts of the criminal justice system.
00:46:35.000 Stand up and if Antifa attacks our homes, we need to not be offensive because, like Martin Luther King said and Gandhi and Jesus, we need to take it on the cheek because that's how we beat them.
00:46:46.000 Violence is what they want.
00:46:47.000 The damn 38-minute podcast was about nonviolence.
00:46:51.000 It wasn't exactly like that, but I understand your point.
00:46:54.000 But I said at the point, by the whole thing, I said at the point of them attacking your house, you've got to defend yourself and have your battle rifles ready.
00:47:00.000 It was a debate about how far to go.
00:47:02.000 The point was I did not say go attack the media.
00:47:04.000 That is made up.
00:47:05.000 One million dollar, one million dollar prize.
00:47:08.000 If you can find me saying get battle rifles and go after the media, I'll pay you one million dollars.
00:47:13.000 I'm not going to collect that check, just like the people never collected the check for the United Negroes College Fund when Andrew Breitbart offered it for anyone who could find footage of them hurling the n-word at Congressman Clyburn.
00:47:22.000 I do think, and this is one thing that the left has admitted now, they didn't used to admit, I thought it was very telling that Jack Dorsey and uh... I'm not gonna say her name on here.
00:47:30.000 Um... Sounds like vagina, but Jack Dorsey.
00:47:34.000 Two p****!
00:47:34.000 That's okay, we'll believe it.
00:47:35.000 No, Vagina Good.
00:47:36.000 Vagina Good.
00:47:37.000 That's a cool name, like Vagina Good.
00:47:38.000 That's a pretty cool name.
00:47:39.000 I mean, what's wrong with making a joke about the name?
00:47:41.000 Big deal, vaginas are good.
00:47:43.000 If I were her parents, I would name her twin sister Penis Bad, so that they have to introduce them as Vagina Good, Penis Bad.
00:47:47.000 That's what I would do, but I would be a cruel parent.
00:47:49.000 Exactly, I came out of a vagina.
00:47:51.000 I love vaginas.
00:47:53.000 I've spent my whole life trying to get my face in vaginas.
00:47:55.000 And demonetized right now.
00:47:56.000 Immediately demonetized.
00:47:57.000 Thank you, Alex.
00:47:58.000 What was I talking about before?
00:47:59.000 I was talking about something before this that I don't remember what it was.
00:48:01.000 Oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:48:02.000 Jack Dorsey did say it.
00:48:03.000 Yeah, listen.
00:48:03.000 Steven, you started it.
00:48:04.000 I did.
00:48:04.000 You began to start the jokes about her name, so just don't.
00:48:07.000 I did.
00:48:07.000 It is my fault.
00:48:08.000 I take full responsibility.
00:48:09.000 Stop raping her name.
00:48:10.000 Stop raping Vagina Good.
00:48:12.000 The name.
00:48:13.000 Let's please.
00:48:14.000 Are you trying to get me put in jail like you?
00:48:16.000 The social media de-platform jail?
00:48:18.000 Please don't do this.
00:48:19.000 My point is with Jack Dorsey.
00:48:20.000 Then just cut it out then.
00:48:22.000 Jack Dorsey said, yeah, as it relates to sort of political pressures, external political pressures, I don't have the exact quote, but I remember him saying, yeah, the left wants us to do more, the left wants us to censor people more, and the right wants less.
00:48:34.000 He admitted that, and we've talked about that on the show for a long time, I know you have, that the left demands less transparency, the left demands less truth, whereas conservatives, the right, libertarians, everyone under that umbrella, demands more.
00:48:48.000 They used to try and deny that.
00:48:49.000 It seems as though now they're not even concerned with it.
00:48:53.000 No, I agree.
00:48:54.000 So why do you think they're just openly, we're going to censor everybody?
00:48:58.000 You know, I don't think that they're openly saying we're going to censor everybody.
00:49:02.000 They tried to sort of obfuscate and pass it off as, well, you know, we might be a bit of an echo chamber.
00:49:05.000 I don't know.
00:49:05.000 No, no, no.
00:49:06.000 They denied it for a while.
00:49:07.000 But if you read, like, the London Guardian or even Time magazine or these articles, they're like, we want all them off.
00:49:13.000 They mention your name.
00:49:13.000 They go, well, we got rid of Jones.
00:49:16.000 We want to get rid of Crowder and all that.
00:49:18.000 Dude, they're listing your name.
00:49:20.000 They're saying we want them off air.
00:49:22.000 I know Twitter is more open about it.
00:49:23.000 Excuse.
00:49:24.000 But Facebook and YouTube are at least trying to act as though that's not the case.
00:49:28.000 But I know Twitter is pretty open about the fact that they want to use it as an opportunity for social media.
00:49:31.000 No, you're right.
00:49:31.000 The future British Prime Minister is saying, you know, he wants Tommy Robinson taken off YouTube or he'll use governmental powers to shut down YouTube.
00:49:36.000 So I agree.
00:49:37.000 As bad as Google's been, it is not the worst.
00:49:39.000 So let me ask you this.
00:49:41.000 Who gets the brass ring?
00:49:43.000 Who is the biggest censor on the internet?
00:49:46.000 Well, you know, that's an interesting question because I was going to ask you this question immediately afterward.
00:49:49.000 Right now, who do I think is the biggest force, do you mean?
00:49:51.000 Who do I think has the most power?
00:49:54.000 Is that what you're asking me?
00:49:55.000 Well, I think Google has the most power.
00:49:56.000 Yes, I would say I think Google, then Facebook, because they have both Google and YouTube, then probably Facebook, and Twitter is further on down that list.
00:50:01.000 That's why when we've talked about sort of taking legal action, and we have, they're not at the front of our queue because they've pretty much admitted they want to be a tool for social change.
00:50:10.000 But this is interesting, as you're a libertarian, I've talked with Nigel Farage about this, a few different guests, What do you think the solution is?
00:50:15.000 As a small government libertarian, do you think that the government should step in and regulate them as public utilities?
00:50:20.000 Because as you just talked about, right, that's a slippery slope.
00:50:22.000 In the UK, the government wants to pressure YouTube to take Tommy Robinson off.
00:50:26.000 But what's the solution here?
00:50:29.000 I'm really glad you raised that nuanced point, Mr. Crowder.
00:50:34.000 If we don't regulate the internet with the necessary evil, with a prohibition, like the Second Amendment says you will not infringe.
00:50:40.000 The First Amendment says you will not infringe.
00:50:43.000 It's not A government power taking something away, it's a guarantor saying that you have immunity as a citizen to defend yourself, you have immunity to have free speech, this is sacrosanct, this is what we worship, this is who we are, this is what makes us who we are.
00:50:59.000 And so, yes, I don't like government being involved, I'm a libertarian like you,
00:51:02.000 but then when the EU and the UK and government says, we're gonna use government power
00:51:08.000 to censor and shut everybody down, who's a nationalist, who's a Brexiter,
00:51:12.000 who's a conservative, who's pro-military, who's pro-family, who's a capitalist,
00:51:17.000 then you've gotta have government come in and say, we're guaranteeing these basic rights
00:51:22.000 like our current law does on the internet.
00:51:23.000 It's just being ignored.
00:51:25.000 And so the internet needs to go back to where it was, where the internet doesn't censor.
00:51:29.000 These companies don't censor unless something's violating law clearly and they get a DMCA takedown order.
00:51:35.000 We have a good orderly system to do this.
00:51:37.000 They've just been ignoring that the last two and a half years since Hillary Clinton lost the election.
00:51:41.000 They've panicked.
00:51:43.000 They're doing this.
00:51:43.000 So I'm not for regulation.
00:51:45.000 But instead, when we stand down, it creates a vacuum where all these regulators come in and we let the EU and the UK and the Chinese governments praising U.S.
00:51:54.000 companies for censoring.
00:51:55.000 So that vacuum, because we're like, we're conservatives, Heritage Foundation, these are private companies, they'll do whatever they want.
00:52:00.000 Well, now we just gave in to the vacuum of all these other very rapacious forces.
00:52:06.000 Here's what I've proposed, at least as a step.
00:52:09.000 Tell me if you agree with this or not.
00:52:10.000 I think that what we need to do is have some transparency.
00:52:13.000 Again, as we've talked about, conservatives, libertarians, we demand transparency.
00:52:15.000 I think that YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and any other social media platforms, they need to publicly declare whether they see themselves as publishers or as open platforms that they do not censor.
00:52:26.000 If they say, hey, we're private publishers, like a BuzzFeed, like a HuffPo, then we say, okay, then You're no longer a social media platform.
00:52:34.000 Let's be honest about it.
00:52:34.000 Fine.
00:52:35.000 Now we need to see some transparency.
00:52:36.000 By the way, you show you've done your research.
00:52:38.000 That's the federal international law.
00:52:40.000 Under the subsection, they have liability protection.
00:52:40.000 Right.
00:52:43.000 A newspaper or a TV station doesn't.
00:52:45.000 Right.
00:52:45.000 But because they have third-party posting, they have liability protection.
00:52:49.000 They're not supposed to be a publisher.
00:52:50.000 So the minute they engage in publisher control, they now lose their immunity.
00:52:55.000 Right.
00:52:55.000 So do you think that probably the most important first step would be for them to have to formally declare whether they are a neutral platform or publisher?
00:53:03.000 Because then we can hold them to their own standards.
00:53:05.000 Yes, I agree.
00:53:06.000 If they won't back off and stop being authoritarian censors, I'd rather them use the immunity as a third... I mean, it's not their fault if I'm on a telephone saying something or I'm on Facebook.
00:53:14.000 Exactly.
00:53:14.000 And once it's criminal, they take it down.
00:53:16.000 So I'd rather them revert to what greater minds in the free market and those that built the internet Okay, final question here.
00:53:22.000 I'll go in a different direction.
00:53:24.000 We do have to get going.
00:53:24.000 rather than back off. But yes, you're right, Steven. If they will not stop, then we have
00:53:28.000 to strip them of their immunity.
00:53:30.000 Okay. Final question here. I'll go in a different direction.
00:53:33.000 We do have to get going. A lot of talk, obviously, since you were on, Joe Rogan, about the,
00:53:36.000 you know, you mentioned the clockwork elves. And this was very entertaining once
00:53:39.000 Eddie Bravo came in and it seemed as though there were some miscommunications.
00:53:43.000 But it was a lot of fun to watch.
00:53:44.000 Here's one thing that I do want to clarify.
00:53:47.000 You talked about these sort of elven figures, let's say.
00:53:51.000 It seemed like you were trying to stress, I noticed this, that you weren't talking about aliens, extraterrestrials, or vampires.
00:53:55.000 But am I wrong in saying a more biblically-based interpretation of kind of demonic apparitions?
00:54:01.000 That's what you were trying to communicate?
00:54:03.000 Because I did find that interesting.
00:54:04.000 I don't think a lot of people who aren't familiar with you You know, associate you with your more faith-based worldview.
00:54:11.000 Exactly.
00:54:12.000 If people want to find out what I really believe, Infowars.com, Newswars.com, they can hear it in this context.
00:54:17.000 I've never seen aliens.
00:54:19.000 I'm not into UFOs.
00:54:20.000 I don't go to UFO conferences.
00:54:22.000 I'm not that guy.
00:54:23.000 I never really covered the lizard people.
00:54:25.000 I've had David Icahn.
00:54:26.000 Studying globalists and studying what they're into, they are into the occult, just like every major ancient religion thought they were conjuring creatures.
00:54:35.000 They were getting data from beyond the veil.
00:54:37.000 And so when you read the Bible about one world government, Mark of the Beast, and there'll be humans conjuring demons, and demons will be set loose on the earth, and then you study San Francisco and the liberals, they're taking DMT, they're taking ayahuasca, and they're having group events with 20, 30, 50, 100 people.
00:54:56.000 And by the way, Joe Rogan said this on air, we never got there fully, but we had an hour and a half conversation before we went live, and he says, listen, you're thinking about Clockwork Elves, he goes, I take DMT all the time.
00:55:05.000 He goes, we have group, basically group experiences.
00:55:08.000 We're talking to these aliens and they look like little elves.
00:55:11.000 And I'm like, well, listen, I'm not going to take that.
00:55:13.000 Cause that scares me.
00:55:13.000 Okay.
00:55:14.000 All I know is the Bible describes it.
00:55:15.000 You can look at black magic books written a thousand years ago.
00:55:18.000 And it shows the, the, the, the, the magician conjures a little thing.
00:55:22.000 It looks like a little gray alien.
00:55:23.000 So yes, the demons that we hear about in modern culture, uh, or, or, or the aliens we hear about modern culture are the demons.
00:55:30.000 And so it fits in perfectly.
00:55:31.000 Like the Aztecs would sacrifice thousands of people a day sometimes because they believed it opened up a portal
00:55:37.000 for gods to tell them things.
00:55:39.000 So it's like chumming the ocean for sharks to come.
00:55:41.000 These lower entities, these demons want blood of children, historically, whether they're real or not,
00:55:46.000 I'm saying the elites are obsessed with it.
00:55:48.000 Yes, it's far out.
00:55:49.000 Yes, it's crazy.
00:55:51.000 But this is what they believe.
00:55:52.000 And they believe killing innocents or doing horrible things brings in these entities
00:55:57.000 that then give them knowledge.
00:55:58.000 Hey, Alex, since this is a pre-tape, because I'm so sick, can you pause real quick, and we'll do this as an after the bell, and upload this as another segment, because I'd like to get into this deeper, but we do have to hit the clock here.
00:56:07.000 Sure, I'll go as long as you want.
00:56:08.000 I love being on the show.
00:56:08.000 Infowars.com, uh, please, uh, yeah, did I say Infowars.com?
00:56:12.000 What was the other, what was the other, uh, I don't know.
00:56:15.000 Newswars.com.
00:56:15.000 Newswars.com.
00:56:16.000 All right, all these places.
00:56:17.000 They don't censor Newswars as much.
00:56:18.000 We will be back after this to close the show and this will be uploaded at a later date because Alex and I are going to go into a little bit of a rabbit hole here.
00:56:25.000 Hold on, we'll be right back.
00:56:26.000 Oh If you don't join Mug Club, Maddie will die.

00:57:25.000 ISIS is a great club to do.

00:57:29.000 I think I want Uncle Sam next.
00:57:30.000 You realize you can get us deployed?
00:57:33.000 We have Alex Jones on this show and you doing that.
00:57:36.000 They're going to say that we're recruiting for ISIS.
00:57:38.000 You do not speak for me.
00:57:39.000 You get the free vest.
00:57:40.000 You don't talk anymore.
00:57:41.000 But I do have some Walthers for you, actually, before you leave, so I think that'll be nice.

00:57:48.000 If you cannot join at MugClub, you know we've been hit with four, five, six copyright strikes this last week, and we need to feed the half-Asian kraken, so Kraken, I don't know how to pronounce it.
00:57:57.000 I'm sick, so my A's sound like Axe.
00:58:00.000 Join my club.
00:58:01.000 This is a video of me playing the game.
00:58:03.000 I'm not a pro at this game.
00:58:05.000 I'm just a guy who's playing it for fun.
00:58:07.000 I'm not a pro at this game.
00:58:09.000 I'm just a guy who's playing it for fun.
00:58:11.000 I'm not a pro at this game.
00:58:13.000 I'm just a guy who's playing it for fun.
00:58:15.000 I'm not a pro at this game.
00:58:17.000 I'm just a guy who's playing it for fun.
00:58:19.000 I'm not a pro at this game.

00:58:27.000 I'm not a pro at this game.
00:58:29.000 I'm just a guy who's playing it for fun.
00:58:48.000 You ever go on swimming when you have a cold?
00:58:50.000 It's just the worst, because then you have all the stuff in your nose, and then the cold water rushes up.
00:58:54.000 It gets in your nasal passages, and it's all burned.
00:58:57.000 And you feel like, oh, I feel really hot.
00:58:59.000 I just got to get into something cold.
00:59:00.000 And then you're immediately cold afterward.
00:59:02.000 Instant grit.
00:59:02.000 It is just the worst.
00:59:04.000 Alex Jones, thank you so much for being on the show.
00:59:06.000 Again, that was a pre-tape.
00:59:07.000 We did that yesterday, because I wasn't sure if I'd be able to get through this whole program today.
00:59:12.000 We have a long extended version available exclusively for Mug Club members.
00:59:16.000 You made it.
00:59:16.000 You did, though.
00:59:16.000 I made it through.
00:59:17.000 You made it.
00:59:18.000 I made it through the mucus.
00:59:21.000 I'm disgusted with myself for even doing that.
00:59:25.000 Next week, we have some great guests lined up.
00:59:28.000 And for the first time, I think we're actually going to have I believe it's Yara from the Change My Mind from this week.
00:59:33.000 She was tweeting us and has been actually very respectful and I'm hoping that we'll have her on the show and it'll be an interesting look back because usually people don't want to come on the show afterward.
00:59:42.000 Never.
00:59:42.000 Let alone someone who was very open about the fact that she'd had an abortion herself.
00:59:46.000 Listen, here's one thing that I think is important as it relates to that.
00:59:50.000 If you watched that right there, I couldn't have been more straightforward about my point of view.
00:59:54.000 She has had an abortion.
00:59:55.000 She is pro-choice.
00:59:57.000 I didn't say, well, let's just find common ground.
00:59:59.000 I said, no, I think you ended a life.
01:00:01.000 I think you killed somebody.
01:00:02.000 And let me tell you what it is that you ended.
01:00:04.000 And we still left it after that able to at least part amicably, as amicably as you can.
01:00:11.000 So the point is, you don't necessarily have to find common ground under a lie to be civil.
01:00:16.000 And you don't have to necessarily be civil to find common ground under a lie, under the guise of a lie.
01:00:22.000 I just reversed it there.
01:00:24.000 I notice Cortez does that a lot.
01:00:26.000 And this does not necessarily mean that, and that does not necessarily mean that.
01:00:29.000 Obviously we would equate that it would go in reverse sequencing.
01:00:36.000 All right, hold on a second.
01:00:37.000 Cover for me there, Garrett.
01:00:38.000 Talk about something, Quarter Black.
01:00:39.000 Something.
01:00:39.000 What's up?
01:00:40.000 How's it going?
01:00:41.000 DMX, black people things.
01:00:43.000 All right, that's enough.
01:00:43.000 Yeah, it's okay.
01:00:46.000 This is why people don't believe that you are any parts black.
01:00:49.000 I know.
01:00:50.000 I told you that was 0.1% sub... Yeah.
01:00:52.000 So you're part of my brethren.
01:00:55.000 I think sub-Saharan African.
01:00:56.000 It's very broad, so it might not mean... But I'm technically more African American than a lot of black Americans.
01:01:02.000 You know the struggle.
01:01:03.000 You don't look black at all.
01:01:04.000 It really is...
01:01:04.000 I know.
01:01:06.000 Concerning.
01:01:07.000 It's all below the tricaster.
01:01:08.000 Because I don't know how to, I don't, I feel like I'm pretty good at filing people according to, you know, race, gender.
01:01:13.000 I'm pretty good at identity politics.
01:01:15.000 And I can't do that with you.
01:01:16.000 You've made it exceedingly difficult.
01:01:18.000 Here's something I wanted to talk with you guys about.
01:01:22.000 Let's talk about toxic masculinity.
01:01:24.000 I think this is something that's been tossed around quite a bit, and Cortez has talked about this, so it seems fitting.
01:01:31.000 I was at the vet this week, and I'm hoping, this is one thing, the vet stuff always, I think Joe Rogan and Kevin Smith were talking about this, the dog stuff always gets me, so hopefully I'm not going to be too emotional.
01:01:40.000 I was at the vet this week, everything's kind of okay, but it's been rough with the chemo treatment.
01:01:43.000 Again, I appreciate the kind words of support.
01:01:46.000 But I was there at this emergency vet on Saturday, And while I was waiting there in the waiting room, there was this 15-year-old girl who was crying.
01:01:59.000 And it's one of those things I will genuinely never forget this girl's face.
01:02:05.000 I actually, I feel things really deeply, but I'm socially very awkward.
01:02:08.000 People who've probably met me, sometimes they're surprised, like when we do a change of my mind or we do the show, it's like, I would have thought this deal would be a little bit more outgoing.
01:02:14.000 Whereas my dad was with me, and he knows the right thing to say.
01:02:19.000 So this girl was crying, she was very upset, and I said, hey, yeah, what's going on?
01:02:24.000 She said, I brought in my 14-year-old dog, and she had a seizure, and she was crying, just tears streaming down her face.
01:02:31.000 I said, oh, yeah, you know, that's kind of tough, and talked about what we were kind of going through with Hopper and the cancer treatment, and I didn't know what to say.
01:02:39.000 I kind of just...
01:02:41.000 Just fizzled out.
01:02:42.000 And my dad saved it and said, like, hey, do you want some water?
01:02:45.000 He took some water from the fridge there and he said, hey, I'm buying because it's free water.
01:02:48.000 And she kind of laughed.
01:02:50.000 She was wearing a sweater that said Canada on it.
01:02:54.000 I think it's one of those Roots sweaters as a company.
01:02:56.000 And so we asked her if she was from Canada.
01:02:57.000 She was from upstate New York.
01:03:01.000 And she forgot about it for a little bit.
01:03:02.000 She stopped crying for a little bit.
01:03:03.000 She was very awkward, this girl, too.
01:03:04.000 Frizzy hair.
01:03:07.000 Probably someone who was very, very close with her dog.
01:03:11.000 Probably the kind of person who maybe had a deeper connection with her dog than most people.
01:03:16.000 I know I had deeper connections with animals as a kid, sometimes I did with people, because I didn't know how to relate to them.
01:03:22.000 And...
01:03:26.000 So I'm trying to find a way to get into this again.
01:03:29.000 I'm trying to keep my emotions in check.
01:03:31.000 When we were leaving, we were okay.
01:03:33.000 And as I was to kind of give you an idea what this looks like, I'm trying to see if you can see scope.
01:03:39.000 There's a wall divide and there's a glass door.
01:03:42.000 And so there's a little bit of a cutout where, you know, you pay for your, You pay for whatever service is rendered.
01:03:47.000 And I can see her on the other side of this wall through a glass door, a 15-year-old girl.
01:03:51.000 And at this point, she was sobbing, but after we spoke with her, she seemed a little bit better.
01:03:55.000 She was looking things up on her phone, a little more talkative in the waiting room.
01:03:59.000 And I sent my dad out with the crate to our car.
01:04:03.000 We pulled the car around.
01:04:05.000 And I saw her mom.
01:04:06.000 And there was no dad there.
01:04:09.000 So I can see both sides of this dividing wall.
01:04:12.000 And I saw her mom talking to the vet.
01:04:16.000 And I overheard her saying, um, how does this work with a 14, 15 year old girl?
01:04:23.000 Is she going to hold her?
01:04:24.000 Um, and the vet said, well, you know, it depends if you think she's most comfortable doing that.
01:04:29.000 Um, and it's one of those things where I'm in this position where I can see effectively that this girl's whole world is about to become unglued.
01:04:40.000 Um, and I didn't sleep at all that night.
01:04:45.000 All I could see was her face.
01:04:47.000 All night long.
01:04:48.000 It was unbelievably hard.
01:04:50.000 And I gathered myself.
01:04:52.000 I walked through the glass door.
01:04:54.000 One of those said, hey, really love your sweater.
01:04:59.000 God bless.
01:05:00.000 Hope you have a good night.
01:05:01.000 She said, oh, thank you.
01:05:03.000 She was smiling.
01:05:03.000 I can't remember.
01:05:04.000 I made some kind of a joke and walked out.
01:05:10.000 That's what toxic masculinity is.
01:05:12.000 And let me explain what that means.
01:05:14.000 We don't show our emotions all the time.
01:05:16.000 We're all constantly accused of, you're not showing your emotions because of a toxically masculine culture.
01:05:21.000 Um, it's not because we're afraid of being teased or because we're afraid of feeling.
01:05:26.000 In that instance, uh, I walked out to my car by the way with my dad and I cried.
01:05:29.000 Uh, it was, it was absolutely heartbreaking, but I knew that in that moment that wasn't going to help her.
01:05:37.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:05:38.000 Why did I go out there, and even though it's just a laugh for 20 seconds before I know she's gonna have to hold her 14-year-old dog before they put it down, why would it matter?
01:05:46.000 Why would I go out there and try to be strong?
01:05:49.000 I know it sounds silly for this 15-year-old girl, because if even for 15 seconds I can protect a girl like that from pain.
01:05:56.000 And it's the same thing with our family members, with our wives, with our daughters, with our sisters.
01:06:00.000 This is why men act the way that we do.
01:06:02.000 It's because we love you.
01:06:03.000 It's because we want to protect you.
01:06:05.000 We hate to see people in pain.
01:06:06.000 We hate to see the people that we love in pain.
01:06:08.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:06:10.000 I'll tell you this, I just, I wanted to give this girl a hug, and I know, I know I can't because, you know, of course it would be inappropriate, but, um...
01:06:16.000 I felt so bad for her, and there was no dad present.
01:06:18.000 Doesn't mean that there wasn't a dad.
01:06:20.000 Doesn't mean that she doesn't have a dad.
01:06:21.000 But it was that much more heartbreaking.
01:06:22.000 Again, it's this carnal, this primal reaction, this visceral reaction that a man will have if there is a woman who is vulnerable, who is exposed, and there is no man there to help her.
01:06:34.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:06:35.000 And you might say, that's the damsel in distress syndrome.
01:06:37.000 Fine.
01:06:37.000 Okay.
01:06:38.000 I'm okay with it.
01:06:40.000 It's in our nature to protect and to provide.
01:06:44.000 Just as it's in your nature, women, to nurture, care for.
01:06:48.000 We want to prevent pain for you at all costs.
01:06:51.000 And by the way, I understand this ironically.
01:06:54.000 Sometimes, that leads to us causing pain.
01:06:57.000 We get so stressed out over trying to provide to protect, whether it's work, whether it's trying to be strong emotionally, that we end up lashing out at those who we live to provide for, who we live to protect.
01:07:09.000 Just like women, ironically, end up suffocating the people they love sometimes, or spoiling them.
01:07:13.000 With children, it's in our nature, and it needs to be bridled.
01:07:17.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:07:19.000 But I don't think that it's a nature that should be condemned Just because it's a part of our genetic makeup.
01:07:26.000 It would be emotionally selfish.
01:07:30.000 It would be incredibly emotionally selfish.
01:07:33.000 You know, I came back home that night, too.
01:07:34.000 I came back to my wife, brought the dogs in, and she was obviously very worried.
01:07:40.000 Everything was fine, but she was obviously very worried.
01:07:42.000 And I made sure that when I came in, kind of had an even keeled temper,
01:07:45.000 explained what went, what happened, what was, were we gonna have to give the dog antibiotics.
01:07:49.000 And once she was settled, about 30 minutes after that, she asked me, she said, what's wrong?
01:07:54.000 What's, what's bothering you?
01:07:56.000 And that's when I told her what I had experienced with the 15 year old girl,
01:07:59.000 that they were gonna put the dog down.
01:08:01.000 And at that point in time, because I had made sure that my wife was taken care of before myself, that's toxic masculinity by the way, and that's a biblical Notion.
01:08:11.000 The idea of esteeming others first, of treating your wives and your women as the best among you.
01:08:15.000 By the way, that wasn't an ideal.
01:08:16.000 When we talk about where do we get morals from, the idea of mercy, it wasn't really considered a virtue in a lot of societies until modern Christendom.
01:08:24.000 The idea of treating your wives as the best among you, the idea of treating your wives with love, and I get it, people will say, well what about submit to your husbands?
01:08:32.000 Okay, it talks about men loving your wives.
01:08:35.000 That was actually kind of unique.
01:08:37.000 When Christ came around.
01:08:38.000 This is just me talking about my worldview once I had made sure that my wife was taken care of, that I had quelled any fears or anxiety she had.
01:08:45.000 I told her about what had happened.
01:08:47.000 And at that point, guess what?
01:08:49.000 It was fine for me to be vulnerable with my wife.
01:08:53.000 It was fine for me to shed a tear and explain something that was deeply impactful and hurtful.
01:08:58.000 And my wife would never condemn me for it.
01:09:02.000 And that's because we have an open, complementary relationship where we understand each other's needs and do our best to meet them as members of the opposite sex.
01:09:10.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:09:11.000 This idea that men just, by the way, the idea that expressing, Jordan Peterson is talking about this, just expressing emotions is somehow inherently helpful, it's not true.
01:09:21.000 Let me give you those examples right there.
01:09:23.000 You know how I felt when I saw that 15 year old girl?
01:09:26.000 I wanted to cry!
01:09:28.000 I felt terrible.
01:09:29.000 I wanted to go into hysterics.
01:09:31.000 You don't think men feel that?
01:09:33.000 Of course.
01:09:33.000 Would it help her?
01:09:34.000 No.
01:09:34.000 It would be selfish.
01:09:35.000 When I came home, it was late, I was tired, I felt this cold coming down, or flu, whatever the hell it is, Ebola czar, Ebola czars, czar, czars, whatever that is.
01:09:45.000 Zika.
01:09:45.000 Zika.
01:09:45.000 Zika was a thing, swine, sexy, flu.
01:09:47.000 You don't think I would love to come in and go, oh my gosh, you wouldn't believe the night I had.
01:09:51.000 But that would be emotionally selfish.
01:09:53.000 And so I ensured that I came in and said, OK, sweetheart, how are you?
01:09:56.000 Let me explain this to you.
01:09:58.000 Everything's OK.
01:09:59.000 I love you.
01:10:00.000 Are you secure?
01:10:01.000 All right.
01:10:01.000 Here's an emotional need that I have right now.
01:10:04.000 When she asked, there's an appropriate time to express emotion.
01:10:08.000 And it's not becoming of a young man to do that.
01:10:11.000 There's nothing wrong with men crying.
01:10:14.000 Okay?
01:10:14.000 There's something wrong with telling boys and telling young men that they should cry for the sake of crying, or that it's inherently a virtue to cry.
01:10:24.000 It's not!
01:10:26.000 It's inherently a good thing to bridle your emotions To moderate your own instincts instead of just acting on them, and I would say it's an inherently good thing to teach young men to be vulnerable with the people they trust and they love, like their wives, like their families.
01:10:41.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:10:42.000 There's this idea that people talk about quite a bit, as though men either have to live into this archetype of big dumb jock, or the sensitive artistic type who cries.
01:10:52.000 Do you realize that's a very new thing?
01:10:54.000 Look at the readings of Teddy Roosevelt or even Abraham Lincoln.
01:10:57.000 These were people who were artistic.
01:10:58.000 These were people who often were musically inclined.
01:11:01.000 People who would paint.
01:11:02.000 People who would write poetry.
01:11:04.000 And then they were incredibly intelligent and physically robust.
01:11:08.000 You were not considered a complete man unless all of these facets made up.
01:11:15.000 Your masculinity.
01:11:16.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:11:18.000 It broke apart, really, with modern progressive feminism.
01:11:22.000 I hate to beat a dead horse here, but that's where we really separated people with the sexual revolution.
01:11:25.000 And honestly, it just made it easier for scumbags to get laid.
01:11:28.000 Let's be honest, that one's not working out really well for women.
01:11:31.000 The original term, I've talked about this before and I'll leave you with this, was, you've heard this expression, jack of all trades, master of none.
01:11:38.000 It was originally jack of all trades, master of one.
01:11:42.000 Meaning you were expected to be a jack-of-all-trades, adequate, passable in all facets of life, and to be a master of one domain.
01:11:50.000 That's what would make a truly great person.
01:11:52.000 A truly great artist.
01:11:53.000 Truly great at anything.
01:11:54.000 But that's what makes a truly great man as well.
01:11:56.000 That's when we talk about toxic masculinity and we throw the baby out with the bathwater.
01:12:01.000 We're throwing out everything that is created.
01:12:03.000 Modern medicine.
01:12:04.000 This Western civilization that is served, protected.
01:12:08.000 And provided for women throughout centuries.
01:12:11.000 Men want to do that.
01:12:12.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:12:13.000 We want to provide for you.
01:12:14.000 We want to protect you.
01:12:16.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:12:17.000 And sometimes it comes with some sh** that you don't want.
01:12:21.000 That's what happens.
01:12:24.000 But we condemn, and this is what worries me too, is this generation of boys that we have now going out there.
01:12:30.000 We've talked about incels.
01:12:32.000 That's a very small microcosm of it.
01:12:34.000 But imagine an entire generation, now really we're going on two generations of boys who've been told that all of their instincts, all of their hardwiring is wrong and toxic.
01:12:45.000 They're going to be afraid to be who they are.
01:12:47.000 How do you juxtapose that?
01:12:50.000 Where you say, hey, yeah, it's toxic masculinity.
01:12:53.000 This idea that you don't want to cry.
01:12:54.000 This idea that you want to be tough.
01:12:56.000 This idea that you want to be athletic.
01:12:57.000 This idea that you want to be great.
01:12:58.000 This idea that you want to be competitive.
01:12:59.000 That's toxic.
01:13:01.000 Don't engage any of those instincts that you have.
01:13:03.000 By the way, keep it real.
01:13:05.000 Do you understand what kind of a conflicted message that is, to send young men?
01:13:12.000 And I'm hoping that there are some women watching this, particularly some young feminist women who maybe haven't peered behind the curtain, who maybe haven't understood what it is that makes young men tick.
01:13:20.000 We love, we care, and we are just as emotional, and we don't act on it because we love you.
01:13:27.000 That's toxic masculinity.
01:13:29.000 I don't have much else to say about it.
