00:01:23.000 Mmm! That is refreshing.

00:01:30.000 Yeah.

00:01:31.000 Today I have a little lime seltzer water in there.

00:01:33.000 I already had my coffee.

00:01:34.000 Really?

00:01:34.000 And it's just, you know, it's almost a little effervescent.

00:01:38.000 Just like you.

00:01:38.000 You know what's really nice?

00:01:39.000 Carbonated milk.

00:01:41.000 What?

00:01:42.000 I make it myself.

00:01:43.000 Isn't there like an eclair or something like that?

00:01:45.000 I have no idea.

00:01:46.000 Hey, we have a lot to get to today.

00:01:48.000 I'm really excited.

00:01:49.000 So one thing that people have been talking about quite a bit, you know, how divisive Trump was.

00:01:53.000 I've heard divisive I don't like it.

00:01:55.000 I think it's interchangeable.

00:01:57.000 Biden is far worse, and I'll lay out the case as to why. 0.64

00:02:00.000 We'll also be talking about the president of the Philippines and butt vaccines. 0.96

00:02:06.000 Butt vaccines.

00:02:08.000 Along with the American flag today and its history, because Macy Gray apparently needed some press, but it's going to be a lot of fun.

00:02:16.000 Did she stumble?

00:02:20.000 Boy, that Green Goblin missed an opportunity.

00:02:23.000 I'll get you, Macy Gray! 0.78

00:02:28.000 Willem Dafoe is, it's like if Christopher Walken were one of those dinosaurs that, you know, you get in the cereal box and you add water, and it's like if you didn't add the water.

00:02:28.000 It saved us all.

00:02:37.000 Just shriveled up.

00:02:40.000 He's a Christopher Walken who's been put in a meat dehydrator.

00:02:43.000 Yeah, it's like if you hit Steve Buscemi with a hammer a bunch of times.

00:02:48.000 And then like, sun-dried him like a raisin.

00:02:50.000 Why aren't they brothers in more movies?

00:02:53.000 Well, that's how he got started.

00:02:54.000 He was one of the California Raisins.

00:02:57.000 All right.

00:02:57.000 G. Morgan Jr., Gerald, how are you, sir?

00:02:59.000 How are you, sir?

00:02:59.000 I am well.

00:03:00.000 I'm doing pretty well.

00:03:01.000 I'm doing pretty well.

00:03:01.000 Good.

00:03:02.000 How are you?

00:03:03.000 Well, you know what?

00:03:03.000 Why?

00:03:03.000 I just, uh, I'm clearing up the nasal thing that I have.

00:03:06.000 Yeah.

00:03:06.000 Oh, okay, good.

00:03:07.000 Which is nice.

00:03:07.000 I'm still coughing up, you know, blood, but baby steps.

00:03:11.000 I'm offended that you said Christopher Walken and not Willem Dafoe.

00:03:17.000 Green Goblin.

00:03:18.000 I said Willem Dafoe was a Green Goblin.

00:03:19.000 Yeah, but then you went to Christopher Walken.

00:03:21.000 Yeah, but that has nothing to do with it.

00:03:23.000 Neither one of them are your people! 1.00

00:03:25.000 Be more tribal!

00:03:26.000 You missed the point!

00:03:27.000 Well, there's a pretty good DJ, what is it, Slim Video?

00:03:30.000 I forget.

00:03:31.000 That's true.

00:03:32.000 Oh yeah, Fatboy Slim.

00:03:33.000 Fatboy Slim directed it.

00:03:37.000 All right, Dave Landau is here and you have a show coming up.

00:03:39.000 Yeah, I do.

00:03:40.000 I got a couple.

00:03:40.000 Oh, look at how I'm hungry.

00:03:43.000 I still look terrible, but I'm starving.

00:03:44.000 I missed breakfast.

00:03:46.000 I get off track by hurting myself.

00:03:46.000 I'm sorry.

00:03:49.000 Yeah, we all do.

00:03:51.000 This week you can see me in Buffalo, New York.

00:03:52.000 I also have dates in Des Moines, Iowa and Columbus, Ohio coming up and Minnesota.

00:03:57.000 Hey, Buffalo might have the first socialist mayor.

00:04:00.000 Is that true?

00:04:01.000 It's true.

00:04:01.000 Yeah, it's true.

00:04:02.000 Happening right now.

00:04:03.000 And she looks about exact... picture in your mind's eye right now, okay?

00:04:06.000 What a socialist mayor looks like?

00:04:08.000 Yeah.

00:04:09.000 Correct.

00:04:09.000 Really?

00:04:10.000 That unappealing.

00:04:11.000 Yes, that unappealing.

00:04:13.000 So here, before we get to anything else, what they're talking about in CNN, oh, they're talking about how it's a violation of human rights to require identification for voting.

00:04:20.000 You know, in the United States, we're trying to entice people with donuts, with lotteries to get the vaccine because, you know, freedom.

00:04:27.000 And in the Philippines, though, their president, Rodrigo Duterte, I don't know if I'm saying that correctly, but I don't care because it's largely an irrelevant country.

00:04:36.000 Manny Pacquiao and stick fighting.

00:04:38.000 What else you got?

00:04:39.000 Stick fighting's cool.

00:04:41.000 He has taken a different tack, and I hate it because it's fascist and it's an abuse of rights, but I love it because we host an entertainment program.

00:04:51.000 If you choose, you will either get vaccinated or go to jail.

00:04:58.000 I told you, the jail is for the police.

00:05:03.000 He says I'm telling you those police jails are filthy, foul smelling, and police are lazy and cleaning.

00:05:08.000 All the baos are there. 1.00

00:05:12.000 That is where you'll be.

00:05:12.000 He's honest.

00:05:13.000 Here we go.

00:05:19.000 Says you will get vaccinated, otherwise I will order a tally of people who have not been vaccinated.

00:05:26.000 I will not inject them with ivermectin, which is intended for pigs.

00:05:29.000 If not, I will. 1.00

00:05:33.000 I'll have you arrested, sent to prison, and I'll inject the vaccine in your butt. 1.00

00:05:46.000 I love how the president of the Philippines is just immediately admitting the corruption and the low standards. 1.00

00:05:53.000 Here we complain about the prison-industrial complex.

00:05:55.000 We're like, you know, they're staying there too long.

00:05:57.000 He's like, in our prisons, our guards don't do work.

00:06:00.000 They don't show up.

00:06:00.000 There's rape.

00:06:01.000 It's very unclean. 0.70

00:06:03.000 It's really punishment.

00:06:04.000 Very, very terrible.

00:06:06.000 We have no standards.

00:06:07.000 We have no standards at all.

00:06:09.000 Seeing his coverage of this was like, well, that's one way to get the job done and make sure people get vaccinated.

00:06:14.000 It's gotta be nice to hear a cell door just close behind you and a big guy standing there like, Yeah, I'm vaccine. 0.93

00:06:21.000 I'm vaccine, you be butt. 0.98

00:06:24.000 I think you should get down on your knees. 0.99

00:06:25.000 This seems unfair.

00:06:28.000 I'll start with you.

00:06:29.000 So, by the way, you can go to CrowderShop.com if you want to support this show.

00:06:32.000 Look, free Speech Matters shirt.

00:06:34.000 And the best way to tune in is it's a live show Monday through Thursday at 10 a.m.

00:06:39.000 Eastern.

00:06:40.000 Our final show before the break, before I go to get my...

00:06:43.000 Chest filleted open for surgery early July is going to be tomorrow.

00:06:48.000 But we will have, I think, like five episodes of pre-taped content.

00:06:51.000 Documentaries and Change My Mind is going up.

00:06:53.000 And you're seeing Dr. Nick Riviera?

00:06:55.000 Yes.

00:06:55.000 What's the last day going to be?

00:06:57.000 It's going to be Thursday, tomorrow, and that's going to be California for Cultural Appropriation Month because it absolutely should not be a part of the United States.

00:07:05.000 I thought it broke off and sank into the ocean.

00:07:07.000 You should be panicked.

00:07:07.000 No, I just... Where is Yukon Cornelius when you need him?

00:07:10.000 I watched 2012, it happened.

00:07:11.000 Just want to axe pick him off and... 0.97

00:07:13.000 Cheers! 0.99

00:07:15.000 Nothing!

00:07:16.000 It's burning, but surrounded by water that won't put it out.

00:07:20.000 Can you just leave me Napa?

00:07:22.000 I'll take that.

00:07:23.000 Yeah, well, you can.

00:07:25.000 You can take Napa and the Folsom Street Fair.

00:07:27.000 No, no, no, it's a package.

00:07:29.000 You want to be the world's most powerful genie?

00:07:31.000 Everything that comes with it, you get the Folsom Street Fair.

00:07:34.000 Yeah, you're also going to have to fight a lot of soccer moms for that property. 1.00

00:07:39.000 A lot of novelty t-shirts.

00:07:41.000 It's wine o'clock.

00:07:42.000 I ate fruit for dinner.

00:07:43.000 I drank a glass of wine.

00:07:44.000 Don't talk to me until I've had my two glasses of wine.

00:07:47.000 It's wine o'clock.

00:07:48.000 And finally, my favorite, just a shirt for Zoloft.

00:07:51.000 I'm questioning my life decisions.

00:07:53.000 So, this morning on CNN, this is something to wonder, you know, a lot of people get this wrong when they talk about, like, cancel culture and they're trying to change this to accountability culture.

00:08:00.000 Yeah.

00:08:01.000 Here's what, the term cancel culture, I've talked about this.

00:08:04.000 It's not just when someone says something that turns their audience off.

00:08:07.000 For a perfect example of that, There could be no cancel culture with comedians.

00:08:11.000 In other words, with someone like a Louis C.K., someone like a Bill Burr.

00:08:14.000 It doesn't matter because the audience comes to see them.

00:08:17.000 Cancel culture is when you have people in disproportional positions of power who try to force someone out of the limelight because they hold an opinion that isn't even necessarily congruent with the rest of the public.

00:08:27.000 That's the thing.

00:08:28.000 That's what cancel culture is. 0.91

00:08:30.000 It's not accountability when the people at, you know, CNN, MSNBC are the ones trying to get someone canceled and they happen to be effective, or YouTube, Facebook, Twitter.

00:08:39.000 They were talking about... I think it's Jeffrey one-hand clapping Toobin.

00:08:47.000 So this morning I perfected it.

00:08:51.000 What's that?

00:08:51.000 That's our most esteemed commentator.

00:08:56.000 He analyzes situations.

00:08:58.000 Cut his feed.

00:08:59.000 Cut it. 0.63

00:09:00.000 He analyzes situations, but can't analyze what to do during a phone call.

00:09:04.000 It's a Zoom call.

00:09:05.000 I'm sorry.

00:09:06.000 Same.

00:09:06.000 So this morning on CNN, they were talking about Lin-Manuel Miranda.

00:09:10.000 You know, he's the guy who created Hamilton.

00:09:11.000 Yeah.

00:09:12.000 And In the Heights, I guess, is this new film adapted.

00:09:14.000 I don't know if it's adapted from a play.

00:09:16.000 So what happened is there were some outrage.

00:09:18.000 And I think this is silly that there weren't enough Afro-Dominicans, is that the term? Black Dominican

00:09:24.000 Americans in this neighborhood. And they're talking about the guy who, by the way, like a Brian Stelter,

00:09:29.000 I was sure was gay until I found out. Like show tunes, you hear him speak. 0.86

00:09:32.000 That's true.

00:09:33.000 No. He's just who he be.

00:09:35.000 Totally straight.

00:09:36.000 A lot of people think Lin-Manuel Miranda is not what he be, but it do.

00:09:41.000 And they were talking about, in response to the people who were outraged of him not having

00:09:45.000 enough black Dominicans in the Heights, and this is an actual, a serious discussion that

00:09:50.000 took place on America's Most Trusted News.

00:09:54.000 They say that free speech is on the line.

00:09:56.000 You're not allowed to say anything.

00:09:57.000 But that's not actually what's happening.

00:09:59.000 People are able to speak their mind and say what they believe.

00:10:03.000 The question is, how is the marketplace going to respond?

00:10:05.000 How is your audience going to respond?

00:10:07.000 So in the specific case of In the Heights, where people are saying, well, what more do you want, right?

00:10:10.000 You made The Founding Fathers black, and now people are still giving you a hard time.

00:10:13.000 The neighborhood that The Heights is about, which is about half a mile from where I live in Harlem, is majority Afro-Dominican.

00:10:19.000 So imagine making a movie about Greenwich, Connecticut with no white actors.

00:10:23.000 People would say, make that make sense.

00:10:25.000 Or making a play of the Founding Fathers with no white actors.

00:10:30.000 He did, he made a play with the Founding Fathers black, and then not enough black people in Dominican neighborhood.

00:10:34.000 It'd be like having a play that should be about white people historically with no white people.

00:10:40.000 Cell phone much?

00:10:41.000 Oh yeah.

00:10:42.000 Also, I'd love to hear the phone call.

00:10:44.000 Yeah, I have a hot script, Hollywood.

00:10:46.000 It's all white people in Connecticut. 0.92

00:10:48.000 Yes.

00:10:48.000 Hello?

00:10:49.000 Sounds very interesting.

00:10:51.000 No, there's no lesbian couple adopting a child.

00:10:53.000 Hello?

00:10:54.000 Hello?

00:10:54.000 I'll have to call you back.

00:10:55.000 They keep hanging up.

00:10:56.000 Have you seen Blaise Hyper on Line 12?

00:10:58.000 Yeah, Bridgerton has a black queen. 1.00

00:11:01.000 Beauty and the Beast has black people in positions of power at a time when that Didn't happen in England. 0.89

00:11:05.000 And by the way, I don't really care. 0.97

00:11:07.000 I mean, I think the rapping is pretty crappy.

00:11:09.000 But then again, when they're, you know, they're standard-bearers, Tekashi 6ix9ine, I don't think this generation knows a whole lot about hip-hop.

00:11:14.000 That being said... Bars low.

00:11:17.000 I don't know, it sounded like an old man.

00:11:18.000 That's not music?

00:11:19.000 No, it's not. 0.99

00:11:20.000 Not only is it not music, it's a butter-soft bitch who snitched and got out of prison due to his asthma and COVID. 1.00

00:11:27.000 I'm sorry. 0.99

00:11:27.000 That's rule number one, man. 0.99

00:11:28.000 Back in our day, you did your time and Suge Knight dangled you from a third-story balcony.

00:11:33.000 Okay?

00:11:33.000 Yep.

00:11:34.000 Better cash those Ninja Turtles 2 royalty checks.

00:11:36.000 We know how it worked.

00:11:37.000 It's not a world I respect.

00:11:38.000 It's not a generation I respect.

00:11:39.000 You can comment if it irritates you.

00:11:41.000 And if you don't like that site, go over to Bad Boys Records.

00:11:43.000 Get yourself Life After Death.

00:11:45.000 Go on.

00:11:46.000 Or Death Row.

00:11:49.000 So this is funny to me that she didn't understand.

00:11:50.000 Were you about to say something?

00:11:52.000 Yeah, I couldn't believe this.

00:11:53.000 I watched this live.

00:11:53.000 I'm so glad we added this to the show this morning because I watched it live.

00:11:56.000 You were watching it live while I was watching it live?

00:11:58.000 Yes!

00:11:58.000 It's like Kevin McCallister and his mom looking at the Christmas tree.

00:12:00.000 Yeah, pretty much.

00:12:01.000 Except not at all.

00:12:01.000 With hate.

00:12:03.000 So, both of us hate this, and Essie Kemp's like, oh, of course, yeah, that's totally strong.

00:12:06.000 We're like the challenger.

00:12:07.000 Like, okay, fine, here, prove my point for me.

00:12:09.000 One of you say something controversial.

00:12:11.000 Go.

00:12:12.000 One of you, yeah.

00:12:12.000 Not one of you is going to say anything remotely controversial, and it's not just, you made a great point, it's gatekeepers.

00:12:18.000 Yeah.

00:12:18.000 It's people saying you can't say this, not an audience, not advertisers.

00:12:23.000 It's also disproportionate on your opinion.

00:12:25.000 You can say horrific things if you're a Democrat.

00:12:28.000 Really terrible things about Republicans.

00:12:30.000 Well, hold on.

00:12:31.000 This isn't that terrible, but I'm going to show you the next.

00:12:33.000 This is, again, where we're talking about appeasing or trying to apologize to the mob.

00:12:37.000 Now, I've always said your words don't define you.

00:12:41.000 Your actions define you.

00:12:42.000 And generally speaking, your words, the way you speak, the way you carry yourself, is a reflection of your character, as are your actions.

00:12:47.000 They should be relatively in line with each other.

00:12:51.000 However, we see this on CNN.

00:12:53.000 And S.C.

00:12:53.000 Cupp, who's sort of like the white Anna Navarro, you know, she's always like, I was a Republican!

00:12:59.000 On what?

00:12:59.000 Nothing.

00:13:00.000 Nothing ever.

00:13:01.000 But take my word, I have credibility.

00:13:02.000 I don't like Donald Trump.

00:13:03.000 And I was a Republican.

00:13:05.000 Really?

00:13:05.000 What did you?

00:13:06.000 I don't know.

00:13:08.000 So anyway, she's the white equivalent, where she just claims she was a Republican.

00:13:10.000 Dines out on that for years.

00:13:12.000 And they actually show you that it doesn't matter what you do.

00:13:16.000 If you've said naughty words, but they'll forgive violent, felonious actions.

00:13:23.000 Yeah.

00:13:24.000 If you're of the right political persuasion or skin color, this next clip, I'll tell you, Mel Gibson, Michael Vick, blew my mind, but not really.

00:13:31.000 So the question is, who is your audience and are you smart enough to know and figure that out?

00:13:35.000 So who is Mel Gibson's audience?

00:13:37.000 Everyone. 1.00

00:13:38.000 Braveheart, bitch. 1.00

00:13:39.000 I'm certainly not. 0.98

00:13:40.000 So there's a question about, when have people done enough to redeem themselves?

00:13:44.000 And I think that's a very real question, is when is somebody worthy of forgiveness?

00:13:48.000 You take someone, for example, like Michael Vick.

00:13:51.000 Did something terrible, was convicted, paid the cost for that, served his time, and then came out and did a tremendous amount of work in supporting animal rights.

00:13:59.000 And when you speak to people in those communities, they say, no, we feel like this was genuine.

00:14:02.000 He really is very remorseful for what he did.

00:14:06.000 Okay, okay.

00:14:07.000 So here's the deal.

00:14:08.000 Mel Gibson said bad words while drunk.

00:14:12.000 Yeah.

00:14:12.000 No one's saying he didn't say bad things while drunk.

00:14:14.000 Most hilarious voicemails ever recorded.

00:14:15.000 Very funny. 0.92

00:14:17.000 He called the cops sugar tits who was a guy. 1.00

00:14:19.000 How is that not hysterical? 0.91

00:14:21.000 But I understand Holocaust denial, bad.

00:14:23.000 I get it.

00:14:23.000 I'm not absolving him of that.

00:14:24.000 However, bad words while drunk they are saying is more impermissible than a man who drowned and electrocuted dogs alive.

00:14:35.000 Wow.

00:14:35.000 Come on.

00:14:36.000 Come on, think about that for a second.

00:14:39.000 Why do you think Michael Vick can be forgiven and they try to pull the whole, who watches Mel Gibson?

00:14:43.000 Um, like everyone, okay?

00:14:45.000 He's done some of the biggest films of all time.

00:14:47.000 It doesn't mean I even love them all.

00:14:48.000 Right.

00:14:49.000 But he is a monumentally successful filmmaker.

00:14:52.000 You guys wanted him out.

00:14:54.000 He's not!

00:14:55.000 You guys, for some reason, allowed Michael Vick to be back in the Good Graces.

00:14:58.000 I don't know if you agree with this.

00:15:00.000 What do you think is worse?

00:15:02.000 Anti-Semitic tirades when calling drunkenly your gold-digging girlfriend and offering her one more chance, mind you, or... One more chance. 1.00

00:15:12.000 Kill, drowning, electrocuting, strangling dogs alive who want nothing more than to be loyal to you. 1.00

00:15:18.000 You let me. 1.00

00:15:19.000 And by the way, Michael Vick didn't walk up to the police station and say, Officers!

00:15:23.000 You know, like, he didn't come in and say, I am doing this, please forgive me.

00:15:26.000 He said, oh crap, I got caught, now I need to do something to rehab my image.

00:15:30.000 Now, he may be genuine now. 0.98

00:15:32.000 It's court-ordered redemption, yeah.

00:15:33.000 Exactly, so that it makes a difference.

00:15:35.000 You didn't turn yourself in.

00:15:36.000 Right. 0.86

00:15:37.000 You actually got caught and were like, oh crap, I'm really sorry. 0.70

00:15:39.000 Yeah, you're sorry you got caught. 0.67

00:15:41.000 I think redemption is redemption.

00:15:42.000 As horrible as that is, you're allowed to change your life.

00:15:46.000 Right.

00:15:46.000 I really do think that.

00:15:47.000 And I think, and same with Mel Gibson, I also think, I don't know, what work though has Michael Vick have been doing with all these animal- He threw some spray paint on people coming out of TJ Maxx and fur coats.

00:15:58.000 Oh that's exciting.

00:15:58.000 Yeah, he volunteered at a kill shelter.

00:16:00.000 Yes.

00:16:02.000 At that point he's like, I'm gonna do it anyway, might as well get paid!

00:16:05.000 I got the experiment!

00:16:07.000 Come on, man.

00:16:08.000 Oh man. 1.00

00:16:08.000 Community service my ass! 1.00

00:16:11.000 No, you're totally right, Dave. 1.00

00:16:13.000 You can be redeemed.

00:16:14.000 I'm not saying that at all.

00:16:15.000 I'm just saying that this is the pattern for the left.

00:16:18.000 It's somebody who gets caught.

00:16:19.000 Jimmy Kimmel didn't go in and say, guys, look, I've been doing blackface for a long time and I'm really sorry about it. 0.84

00:16:23.000 Somebody put the video back out there and he's like, oh crap, I have to respond to this.

00:16:27.000 That is a different situation.

00:16:28.000 You can totally respond and say I'm sorry and mean it.

00:16:31.000 I definitely believe that.

00:16:32.000 But it's not like these people went out there and did it on their own accord, saying, gosh, I just reevaluated my life.

00:16:36.000 I just think it's bad.

00:16:37.000 It's very clear that the left will forgive violent action. 0.92

00:16:41.000 Do you think if a white male conservative was burning dogs alive, electrocuting dogs alive, sorry, I don't want to be hyperbolic, do you think that they would be forgiven? 0.91

00:16:51.000 Maybe cats. 0.99

00:16:53.000 Jeez.

00:16:54.000 Terrible.

00:16:54.000 I'm kidding.

00:16:55.000 I love animals.

00:16:56.000 I like animals more than people.

00:16:58.000 If you really want to do a Mad... I still enjoy a good Mel Gibson movie.

00:17:02.000 In other words, they would sooner forgive the man who kills his dog than the one who names his dog Himmler.

00:17:09.000 And you shouldn't do either, to be clear!

00:17:14.000 I learned that with Little Mr. Gubbles.

00:17:16.000 I learned my lesson.

00:17:19.000 Mel Gibson is insane, though, and that's why I enjoy him.

00:17:22.000 Yes!

00:17:22.000 That's simple.

00:17:23.000 Everyone knows that rant where he's sitting there saying, You are awful! 1.00

00:17:26.000 You have no soul! 1.00

00:17:28.000 You have no soul! 0.99

00:17:30.000 But then he tries to save face, because he's drunk and crazy, and he goes, But I will give you one more chance. 0.98

00:17:36.000 Like, you are not negotiating!

00:17:38.000 That's like Biden with Putin. 1.00

00:17:41.000 You're a killer! 1.00

00:17:42.000 But, you know, we could go get ourselves a slice! 1.00

00:17:46.000 At that diner I went to.

00:17:48.000 She promised hot tub festivities and didn't live up to it. 0.99

00:17:52.000 And the man got mad.

00:17:53.000 He deserves it.

00:17:55.000 It's like, what do you want him to do?

00:17:57.000 He came home as Mel Gibson.

00:18:01.000 So this is another story.

00:18:04.000 IKEA is now under fire for creating This is one that, look, I don't think it's that bad, but they should have seen this coming.

00:18:10.000 For creating an African-American themed menu to honor Juneteenth.

00:18:15.000 And this was sent out to some workers in Atlanta from Ikea.

00:18:20.000 Oh, in Atlanta?

00:18:23.000 To honor the perseverance of black Americans and acknowledge the progress yet to be made.

00:18:28.000 We observe Juneteenth on Saturday, June 19th.

00:18:31.000 And then it says, look at our special menu on Saturday, which will include, Fred?

00:18:36.000 Chicken, watermelon, mac and cheese, potato, salad, collard greens, candy, yams, and white hoods.

00:18:43.000 So the black employees were outraged, calling it racist and demeaning, which, look, I think it's tone deaf.

00:18:52.000 That being said, IKEA did apologize, and for the remainder of Pride Month they'll continue serving their regularly scheduled fare.

00:18:58.000 So yeah, it's just Swedish meatballs.

00:19:02.000 It's just the Swedish chef.

00:19:04.000 Just stick to cinnamon rolls, guys.

00:19:06.000 Lickin' my bars and don't just eatin' the cake, lick the frosting and the tangent!

00:19:11.000 Slurpy, slurpy derpy! 1.00

00:19:13.000 Slurpy derpy! 0.99

00:19:14.000 Oh, just stick to cinnamon rolls, guys.

00:19:16.000 Come on.

00:19:17.000 In fairness, that menu looks delicious.

00:19:19.000 I'm just hungry.

00:19:20.000 It does actually look really good.

00:19:21.000 I'm gonna give you a jabutin vaccine!

00:19:24.000 Look, you can point me to some racist food and I'm gonna go, I don't know how it's racist because I like it.

00:19:28.000 It looks delicious.

00:19:29.000 Exactly.

00:19:30.000 That's what I had on Saturday, on Sunday, Father's Day.

00:19:33.000 Oh, I loved it.

00:19:34.000 Yeah, me too.

00:19:35.000 We had watermelon.

00:19:36.000 It's in season.

00:19:37.000 Now, if in, you know, the middle of February you're seeking out some watermelons, Nothing like perpetuating the original stereotype, but you do you.

00:19:43.000 You've got a problem.

00:19:44.000 I love February Melon.

00:19:46.000 Yes.

00:19:49.000 By the way, happy birthday right now.

00:19:50.000 This is something else before we get to the different policies of Donald Trump and Joe Biden.

00:19:54.000 Again, I will argue that Joe Biden has divided America more than any president in record time.

00:20:00.000 And I understand, I'm not saying that Donald Trump was not divisive.

00:20:02.000 But for two very different reasons.

00:20:04.000 But right now I do want to honor someone, obviously who deserves it, Clarence Thomas.

00:20:07.000 Oh! 0.60

00:20:08.000 Sir Justice Clarence Thomas.

00:20:11.000 By the way, for people who don't know, he's the guy who made that guy, Andrew Breitbart, a conservative.

00:20:15.000 Andrew Breitbart tuned in to try and watch this guy get read the Riot Act, and then he said, they're lynching this guy.

00:20:21.000 You can go and read his book.

00:20:23.000 The trial of Clarence Thomas, specifically Biden's treatment of him, is what led to Andrew Breitbart becoming a conservative.

00:20:30.000 But I believe we have, oh yeah, this is a classic, a clip of Clarence Thomas obliterating former Vice President Joe Biden.

00:20:38.000 This is a case in which this sleaze, this dirt, was searched for by staffers of members of this committee, was then leaked To the media.

00:20:54.000 And this committee and this body validated it and displayed it at prime time over our entire nation.

00:21:07.000 This is a circus.

00:21:08.000 It's a national disgrace. 0.99

00:21:11.000 And from my standpoint, as a black American, as far as I'm concerned, it is a high-tech lynching for uppity blacks. 1.00

00:21:21.000 who in any way deign to think for themselves. 0.99

00:21:24.000 Quote, we already have a nigger mayor, we don't need any more nigger big shots. 1.00

00:21:28.000 Nigger here next. 1.00

00:21:29.000 Now I just wanted to show you the timeline because it's not like he learned from it. 0.97

00:21:34.000 Just a side by side.

00:21:38.000 Why are you so quiet today, Dave?

00:21:40.000 I'm just hungry, dude.

00:21:43.000 You don't need to push it that hard.

00:21:45.000 You're a grown man.

00:21:45.000 We'll get you something.

00:21:47.000 And I understand he was quoting someone else saying the N-word.

00:21:49.000 I think he said the N-word something like 16 times in the Senate?

00:21:53.000 Quite a few.

00:21:54.000 But, again, just playing by their own rules, they should be cancelled.

00:21:57.000 Yes, and honestly why I was being so quiet during that is I don't remember that speech that he gave.

00:22:05.000 That was during the confirmation hearing, yeah.

00:22:05.000 Right, Clarence Thomas.

00:22:07.000 I remember it happening now, but I was just kind of taken back by it for a minute because I forgot how completely cruel that was.

00:22:13.000 Yes.

00:22:13.000 Yeah, it absolutely was.

00:22:14.000 But it just shows you how times have changed.

00:22:16.000 If he said anything close to that, I mean, you know, not accidentally like he did in the clip that we have him here, then you would see, like, canceled immediately, right?

00:22:23.000 Yeah.

00:22:23.000 I think Papa John's guy, I think he was quoting somebody.

00:22:25.000 There was another guy who said it as well.

00:22:26.000 He was quoting somebody else and said the word.

00:22:28.000 And he was saying that it was bad.

00:22:29.000 And yeah, exactly.

00:22:30.000 He was like, hey, this is a bad thing.

00:22:31.000 Don't say this word.

00:22:32.000 I hate when people... Ask me if I've ever quoted anybody saying the N-word.

00:22:36.000 Of course.

00:22:37.000 Have you seen some of the guests we've had on the show?

00:22:40.000 Where I have had to address the things that they've said 20, 30, 40 times?

00:22:45.000 I just don't like though when you see somebody in a position of power like that where they're reading the N-word because they feel good, like they want to do it.

00:22:53.000 And that's what you see.

00:22:54.000 I find that so disgusting when it's like, oh boy, I'm going to say it today.

00:22:59.000 It's my time.

00:23:01.000 Does someone get my highlighter?

00:23:03.000 You know what?

00:23:03.000 I want it to be the pink, blue, and yellow one.

00:23:06.000 I really want to make this just a party on my page.

00:23:10.000 You feel that, though, when somebody is doing that deliberately.

00:23:14.000 Because he could have easily said N-word.

00:23:16.000 He's trying to get a rise out of it.

00:23:18.000 And people don't remember the witch hunt that it was.

00:23:20.000 They tried to bring out every negative stereotype of Clarence Thomas.

00:23:23.000 Oh, he went to this porn shop, which turned out wasn't even a porn shop where he could have been when he lived, I believe, in D.C.

00:23:28.000 at that time.

00:23:29.000 The worst thing that Clarence Thomas did, just to be clear, for people out there who don't know, Just like some people aren't familiar with Macy Gray, find out with Gen Z, is he said, Hey, who put, uh, who, uh, whose, uh, pubic hair is on this Diet Coke can?

00:23:41.000 That just makes me want to party with Clarence!

00:23:44.000 It's hilarious.

00:23:44.000 Yes.

00:23:46.000 You tell me, do you want to, you want to go to a kegger with Clarence Thomas or Sonia Sotomayor?

00:23:53.000 That's a good thing.

00:23:54.000 She probably would be offended about it. 0.68

00:23:55.000 She'd start an investigation as to who's short and curly was on her Zima. 0.63

00:23:59.000 Well, and here we are 30 years later, that would be about as scandalous as a parking ticket.

00:24:04.000 Right.

00:24:05.000 You would think so.

00:24:05.000 Yeah.

00:24:06.000 But no.

00:24:07.000 All right.

00:24:08.000 I want to move on to this really quickly.

00:24:10.000 This is something, we've heard this a lot, right?

00:24:13.000 America is more divided than ever before because of Joe Biden.

00:24:16.000 And by the way, you're out there, you can hit the notification bell because subscriptions don't mean a whole lot.

00:24:20.000 So just hit that ding.

00:24:21.000 It's a live show Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.

00:24:22.000 Eastern.

00:24:25.000 I think that it is so woefully misguided, and I understand that it's by design with the media.

00:24:30.000 Look, far be it for me to argue that Donald Trump—do you have your restless legs?

00:24:35.000 Can you stop shaking your foot?

00:24:36.000 Is it because you're hungry?

00:24:36.000 Why?

00:24:37.000 Because it's like you'd be lifting up your knee and showing me your mild to moderate to severe plaque psoriasis.

00:24:43.000 Fine.

00:24:44.000 He keeps shaking his leg.

00:24:45.000 I feel like he's morphing someone a bomb code.

00:24:52.000 Honestly, I am more comfortable.

00:24:54.000 What does that say about me?

00:24:56.000 Wait a minute, I like it a lot.

00:24:57.000 So they've tried to argue that Donald Trump is the most divisive president ever.

00:25:01.000 And I would say Joe Biden is more divisive, but for two very, very different reasons.

00:25:06.000 Donald Trump was divisive.

00:25:07.000 Here's the reason why.

00:25:08.000 And this is just my opinion, and then I'll try and substantiate it.

00:25:11.000 All the links are available at LetUsCredit.com.

00:25:13.000 Every single president before, I should say, certainly every single Democratic president before Donald Trump Yeah.

00:25:18.000 You can go back to the Bush years and remember how they treated him, but at that point they

00:25:21.000 still had some semblance of attempting to appear objective.

00:25:26.000 But of course we know that they weren't.

00:25:28.000 We had eight years of Barack Obama where it was nothing but fawning over the president.

00:25:32.000 And of course at this point new media started to emerge.

00:25:35.000 Legacy media tried to silence new media.

00:25:36.000 We saw that happening, right?

00:25:38.000 We thought, hey, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, they're no more gatekeepers.

00:25:40.000 And then these huge corporations spent tons of money to silence voices like yours truly,

00:25:45.000 many of you out there.

00:25:46.000 Donald Trump was divisive because he was pointing out what we all knew for a long time, but

00:25:51.000 too many people were afraid to say, including Republicans, that the media was dishonest

00:25:56.000 and that the left were liars, that they were biased, that they were not well-intentioned,

00:26:01.000 and that they were lying about it.

00:26:03.000 So Donald Trump created a divide in pointing that out. 0.98

00:26:07.000 Joe Biden is divisive precisely because he's one of those liars.

00:26:12.000 And I don't think Joe Biden would be as divisive today had it not been pointed out. 0.87

00:26:12.000 Exactly. 0.87

00:26:17.000 In other words, if we went from Barack Obama to Joe Biden, a lot of Americans, right?

00:26:20.000 Honest question.

00:26:21.000 Comment below.

00:26:22.000 I used to talk about this when this show was syndicated on radio before Donald Trump was ever president.

00:26:26.000 And I said, there are a lot of people out there who think that CNN is, my God, objective journalism.

00:26:31.000 And they believed it until Donald Trump.

00:26:34.000 That's why we don't go after MSNBC, because at least they're honest about where they stand.

00:26:38.000 CNN was exposed.

00:26:40.000 ABC, NBC, CBS, New York Times.

00:26:43.000 Institutions!

00:26:44.000 And the left thinks that's a bad thing, that people have lost their trust in American institutions.

00:26:48.000 Do you mean WAPO?

00:26:49.000 Then sure!

00:26:50.000 Do you mean Snopes?

00:26:51.000 Absolutely!

00:26:51.000 Do you mean Brian Stelter?

00:26:52.000 Okay!

00:26:53.000 Now, Biden tries to come back and act as though this is business as usual, and there are a lot of people going, wait, wait, he's prominent!

00:26:59.000 So, Donald Trump divisive because he pointed out the lie, Joe Biden is divisive because now he's a part of the lie, and no one believes the lie anymore.

00:27:07.000 Yeah, absolutely.

00:27:08.000 And so, when you have Trump coming in, he basically understood a principle.

00:27:11.000 You don't sacrifice the truth for unity.

00:27:13.000 Doesn't mean you always get everything right, but unity was not his goal.

00:27:15.000 Doing what was right in most of these situations with his policies and what he would say about the media, that was more important than unifying people.

00:27:21.000 You had to point out the hypocrisy.

00:27:23.000 Right.

00:27:24.000 Now, really quickly, let me point out, just to kind of prove my point here, I want you to see how the media treated Donald Trump versus Joe Biden.

00:27:30.000 I know you hear people complaining about it a lot, but I actually want you to believe your lion eyes and lion ears.

00:27:35.000 Here's some of the greatest hits from the objective journalists as it relates to Donald Trump.

00:27:39.000 Since you're attacking us, can you give us a question?

00:27:41.000 Go ahead.

00:27:42.000 No, Mr. President-elect.

00:27:44.000 Go ahead.

00:27:44.000 Mr. President-elect, since you are attacking our news organization, can you give us a chance?

00:27:48.000 Your organization is terrible.

00:27:49.000 You are attacking our news organization. 0.99

00:27:50.000 Your organization is terrible.

00:27:51.000 Can you give us a chance to ask a question, sir?

00:27:52.000 Go ahead.

00:27:53.000 Sir, can you state- Quiet.

00:27:54.000 Mr. President-elect.

00:27:55.000 Go ahead.

00:27:55.000 Can you state categorically- She's asking a question.

00:27:57.000 Don't be rude.

00:27:57.000 Mr. President-elect, can you give us a question?

00:27:59.000 Don't be rude.

00:27:59.000 You're attacking us.

00:28:00.000 Can you give us a question?

00:28:01.000 Don't be rude.

00:28:02.000 Can you give us a question?

00:28:03.000 I'm not going to give you a question.

00:28:04.000 I'm not going to give you a question.

00:28:05.000 Can you state categorically- You are fake news.

00:28:06.000 Let's go ahead.

00:28:08.000 CNN's fake news, I don't take questions.

00:28:10.000 I don't take questions from CNN.

00:28:11.000 CNN is fake news, I don't take questions from CNN.

00:28:14.000 But I'm having a good time.

00:28:16.000 Tomorrow they will say, Donald Trump rants and raves at the press. 0.95

00:28:20.000 I'm not ranting and raving, I'm just telling you, you know, you dishonest people.

00:28:24.000 Should I let him have a little bit more?

00:28:26.000 What do you think, Peter?

00:28:28.000 Peter, should I let him have a little bit more?

00:28:30.000 Sit down.

00:28:31.000 I miss him, man.

00:28:32.000 I just told him I've got to come over and see the fake news.

00:28:37.000 Let's go.

00:28:39.000 I miss the guy.

00:28:41.000 I just told him I've got to come over and see the fake news.

00:28:44.000 Who do you mean?

00:28:44.000 You and you and you and you and you.

00:28:48.000 Let's go.

00:28:49.000 I can't even believe what that office has become now.

00:28:54.000 I know.

00:28:56.000 Now let's compare this to former Vice President Joe Biden and how the press treats him.

00:29:06.000 That must be nice.

00:29:07.000 No.

00:29:07.000 Over the years, over your career, you've already spent a great deal of time at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

00:29:11.000 Except now you're living there and you're president.

00:29:13.000 It's been four weeks.

00:29:14.000 man is the reason why a lot of immigrants are coming to this country. 0.99

00:29:17.000 That's the perception of 100% of America.

00:29:19.000 Yeah.

00:29:20.000 How do you resolve that tension?

00:29:22.000 Over the years, over your career, you've already spent a great deal of time at 1600 Pennsylvania

00:29:26.000 Avenue, except now you're living there and you're president.

00:29:31.000 It's been four weeks.

00:29:32.000 What's it like?

00:29:33.000 Chaka chaka chip.

00:29:34.000 Oh, like he just discovered fire.

00:29:42.000 Which, by the way, is also how Joe Biden would react if he saw fire.

00:29:50.000 You have a flint and a rock, huh?

00:29:53.000 What's that?

00:29:54.000 What's that device that creates the magical heat?

00:29:56.000 It's a Zippo.

00:29:59.000 That ice cream cone also laid him out for the next 72 hours.

00:30:02.000 Exactly.

00:30:04.000 I'm gonna need to take a nap.

00:30:06.000 Oh my god.

00:30:06.000 This is, this is, does this turn back into liquid?

00:30:09.000 Because it's a solid now!

00:30:11.000 It turns into, I got the self-lubricating pocket catheter.

00:30:15.000 Well, I thought this was bad with Barack Obama, right?

00:30:17.000 The media gave him a huge pass, right?

00:30:20.000 Didn't do a whole lot of digging when he was running for president, didn't do a whole lot when he started to, you know, do his policies and do things that we thought were bad.

00:30:26.000 It's gotten worse under Joe Biden.

00:30:28.000 Well, it's gotten worse because at least Barack Obama had charisma, right?

00:30:32.000 He had charisma, but now they have to make up for that also.

00:30:37.000 So in other words, with Barack Obama, they would be able to ask him a question, I don't know, about policy, and he could shuck and jive.

00:30:43.000 Which, by the way, people should know out there, they tried to accuse Sarah Palin of being racist, and most recently I saw a black commentator saying that Candace Owens was chucking and jiving.

00:30:51.000 And I said, there's no chuck, it's shuck and jive.

00:30:53.000 People were like, oh, that's a gotcha.

00:30:54.000 No, it's a term from slavery.

00:30:56.000 And if you're talking about being a Black Lives Matter activist and supporting critical race theory, you should know what shuck and jive means. 0.66

00:31:01.000 It comes from being elusive to the slave masters, usually during corn husking season, and then became common nomenclature in boxing.

00:31:08.000 Like he's pulling the shuck and jive.

00:31:09.000 He's being evasive.

00:31:10.000 Anyways, they would ask...

00:31:12.000 Barack Obama question.

00:31:13.000 He would shuck and jab and not answer and then go, thank you very much and move on.

00:31:16.000 With Joe Biden, because he doesn't have any charm, they have to say, first, before I ask you a question, it's very clear that you are the president near and dear to everyone's heart and everyone loves you and you're super, super cool.

00:31:29.000 Now, do you like stuff?

00:31:33.000 Do you remember where you are?

00:31:35.000 And this wouldn't be so bad if Donald Trump didn't rip off the Band-Aid, if Donald Trump didn't turn the light on.

00:31:40.000 So, do we blame the man who turned the light on, or do we blame the man who is now shooting the lights back out, or attempting to?

00:31:48.000 And this is something, too, objectively, this is happening around the globe.

00:31:52.000 In my home country of Canada, with Prime Minister Blackface, And then even, I think we have a clip right from Australia, Sky News, and I used to appear on Sky News when we were talking about debates.

00:32:02.000 Not friendly!

00:32:04.000 Here's them talking about former Vice President Joe Biden at the G7 Summit.

00:32:08.000 This is across the globe where their toilets flush the other way. 0.99

00:32:12.000 Listen to how CNN is reporting this momentous event.

00:32:16.000 Joe Biden is stepping onto the world stage for the first time as president and equal to foreign leaders.

00:32:23.000 Now let's go back in time to 2018 and see if those same newsrooms

00:32:27.000 offered the presidency of Donald Trump such light and positive coverage.

00:32:31.000 ...static and deepening G7 divide better put perhaps as G6...

00:32:36.000 Just push him off a ledge.

00:32:37.000 They're trying to give the illusion that he doesn't have any disputes with any of

00:32:42.000 these international leaders.

00:32:45.000 What do you think of that?

00:32:46.000 I just think Joe Biden is a lucky person.

00:32:48.000 He has got all the media on his side, or most of the media on his side, particularly CNN, completely at odds with what they did to Trump.

00:32:57.000 So, you know, his popularity surely can only win from this because he's getting so much Positive PR through the journalists who are massive fans of him.

00:33:06.000 She's saying PR.

00:33:07.000 It's really quite appalling to watch.

00:33:09.000 And what happened to straight news reporting, which doesn't seem to be existent there?

00:33:14.000 Well, straight news reporting went out of style along with all straight news reporters.

00:33:21.000 Straight white news reporters.

00:33:23.000 Gone forever. 0.99

00:33:24.000 Now, CNN, it's all gay, all the time. 1.00

00:33:26.000 And the times it's not gay, it's still kind of gay. 0.98

00:33:29.000 Sometimes it's not gay, it's... They say.

00:33:36.000 I've never seen Sky News, that is smug.

00:33:42.000 It is smug.

00:33:43.000 One time when I was on Sky News, the guy I was talking about, this was in the UK though, not Australia, I think they have different networks, he goes, Well, I certainly hope that you don't have any firearms where you are.

00:33:53.000 I said, yeah, I do.

00:33:54.000 I have one on my hip right now.

00:33:55.000 Now, why in the world would you have some kind of a firearm on your hip right now?

00:33:59.000 I said, because I don't have the armed security that you have in your building right there with firearms.

00:34:02.000 He's like, oh, I don't have any.

00:34:04.000 Really?

00:34:04.000 You're going to tell me that?

00:34:05.000 You don't have any security there at the news building?

00:34:06.000 Not at all.

00:34:07.000 He meant to say, I don't have any in front of me.

00:34:08.000 And he goes, well, I hope the safety latch is on.

00:34:10.000 And I said, the hell's that?

00:34:14.000 And then you were, then you undid the safety and were like, catch.

00:34:17.000 No, it was by Skype.

00:34:19.000 Yeah, but it would have been fun.

00:34:21.000 Catch.

00:34:21.000 Her!

00:34:22.000 Hot potato, hot potato! 0.99

00:34:23.000 Demasculine! 0.99

00:34:24.000 So.

00:34:24.000 Don't worry, it's not loaded.

00:34:26.000 Oh, wait, it was.

00:34:26.000 So yeah.

00:34:27.000 I love that Australia can see it, obviously.

00:34:29.000 These guys in Australia looking and going, hey, what the hell?

00:34:32.000 Well, Australia is really concerned about China.

00:34:34.000 And so Australia right now is actually saying, hey guys, is anyone keeping an eye on this?

00:34:38.000 Because they really are vulnerable in a lot of ways.

00:34:40.000 They can be exposed.

00:34:41.000 So they haven't been nearly as anti-American as a lot of other nations have.

00:34:45.000 Usually when you meet Australians, they're fun and they're drunks. 1.00

00:34:47.000 Now, it's great.

00:34:50.000 This is also important.

00:34:51.000 So we should look at the difference in policies when people say Donald Trump was divisive.

00:34:54.000 And they mean personality wise, I guess, because as far as policies, really, there wasn't anything all that divisive.

00:35:01.000 And there shouldn't be by its very nature in reducing the size of government.

00:35:05.000 In my opinion, when you intrude into people's lives, like, I don't know, say, Shutting down a business, or paying people unemployment in perpetuity so that business owners cannot hire them, or lock people at home in place despite skyrocketing suicide, and allow felons back into the street, right, and charge you for trying to protect yourself from felons amid these riots.

00:35:25.000 I would say those are more divisive policies, whereas Donald Trump is like, rolling back taxes and regulations.

00:35:32.000 I want you to hear it straight from the horse's mouth, I guess.

00:35:37.000 It's a Mr. Ed montage.

00:35:38.000 I don't know.

00:35:38.000 We ran out of space.

00:35:40.000 The media criticizing the most divisive policies of Donald Trump.

00:35:43.000 Fundamental decision of when a woman needs to make a decision about when she's having children, how many children she's having, under what circumstances she is having them, that those are fundamentally her decisions.

00:35:55.000 President Trump tries to create red herring arguments that don't exist and he's lying to the American people.

00:36:00.000 Anna Navarro, what do you think?

00:36:01.000 I think I'm really sick of this president and everybody who works around him demonizing immigrants.

00:36:06.000 I used to be a Republican.

00:36:07.000 You know, it seems like everything they utter is about MS-13.

00:36:10.000 It seems that everything they utter is about maligning the Dreamers and immigrants that come here.

00:36:15.000 Now to our World Lead today.

00:36:16.000 A top counter-terrorism official in the U.S.

00:36:19.000 is now saying that recent anti-Muslim rhetoric is making his job and the work of his colleagues more difficult.

00:36:24.000 Let's bring in CNN's Jim Sciutto.

00:36:26.000 And Jim, this official specifically referenced anti-Muslim remarks by President Trump.

00:36:30.000 Yeah.

00:36:30.000 That must have been post-Biden with Clarence Thomas.

00:36:31.000 tackling race-related training sessions at federal agencies.

00:36:35.000 This memo says it's come to the president's attention that agencies have spent millions

00:36:39.000 of dollars training government workers to believe anti-American propaganda.

00:36:45.000 It came to the president's attention.

00:36:47.000 How?

00:36:49.000 No, how about you answer how?

00:36:51.000 How about you answer how?

00:36:52.000 I mean, you should have enough room in that chrome dome for a couple of answers for crying out loud.

00:36:57.000 Or maybe some proof of how.

00:36:58.000 I think you know how that happened.

00:36:59.000 Really, how?

00:37:01.000 Racism?

00:37:01.000 I don't know.

00:37:02.000 Let me look at my purse.

00:37:03.000 He has a purse!

00:37:05.000 He does.

00:37:05.000 That's a fact.

00:37:07.000 It's a man bag.

00:37:08.000 We can bring that up for later.

00:37:09.000 In the James O'Keefe video, that's the thing no one was talking about.

00:37:11.000 The man carries a purse.

00:37:12.000 You don't carry a briefcase in the crooks of your elbow.

00:37:14.000 You know, looking at him, I would assume he did.

00:37:17.000 Yeah.

00:37:18.000 Well, let me be really clear about, they were just addressing this, the really divisive policies.

00:37:22.000 Donald Trump supported radical measures like heartbeat bills.

00:37:25.000 When a baby has its own heartbeat autonomously from the mother, at that point, it's considered ending a life.

00:37:30.000 He didn't believe that we should be funding abortion overseas, meaning American taxpayers.

00:37:34.000 Look, you may think that you support the right to have an abortion here in the country.

00:37:38.000 You may even think that we should spend some money in financial... we should provide financial aid to nations abroad.

00:37:44.000 I disagree with both of those things.

00:37:46.000 But if we're going to find common ground, can we at least agree that we should not be funding abortions overseas in any capacity?

00:37:54.000 If you can't, then don't tell me it's about the first trimester, second trimester.

00:37:57.000 It's not about that.

00:37:57.000 You think that American taxpayers should be taxed more and we should provide more money to abortions overseas as a method of population control.

00:38:06.000 What else do we have?

00:38:07.000 His racist immigration stance.

00:38:09.000 Legal immigrants, by the way.

00:38:10.000 That's what it is.

00:38:11.000 Legal immigrants coming through the door.

00:38:12.000 The Muslim ban, identified first by Barack Obama. 0.87

00:38:15.000 Countries of danger.

00:38:17.000 You know who supported it?

00:38:18.000 Syrian Christians.

00:38:19.000 Refugees who were Christians who made up less than 1% of the migrants coming over during that surge.

00:38:24.000 Despite the fact that the rest of them were all Islamic, military-aged men. 1.00

00:38:29.000 And you see what happened in Europe.

00:38:30.000 What do we have?

00:38:31.000 Banning diversity training.

00:38:32.000 Critical race theory in the federal government?

00:38:35.000 Okay, sure.

00:38:36.000 These are the radical policies they're talking about.

00:38:38.000 My point is, there is nothing there.

00:38:40.000 What?

00:38:40.000 Reducing our corporate tax rate?

00:38:42.000 To just be on par with places like Sweden, Denmark, nations that you guys love and you proclaim as the model of socialist success?

00:38:50.000 That's radical?

00:38:52.000 Yeah. The only way that this works is if you buy the lie that everything that Donald Trump said

00:38:56.000 was racist. And the only way that that works is if you watch the clip that they want you to watch

00:39:00.000 when it's edited the way they want it to be edited. That's the only way any of this works.

00:39:04.000 And everybody had to carry the water. And they did.

00:39:06.000 And we talk about divisive and radical. Let's go through Biden.

00:39:09.000 Biden wants to put our taxes to a level that is unseen in the industrialized world, supports Black Lives Matter, the terrorist organization who on their site demand the destruction of the nuclear family. 0.52

00:39:19.000 He said that Antifa is just an idea.

00:39:21.000 He wants to spy on Americans who may be too far right wing.

00:39:25.000 We did an entire segment on that. 0.99

00:39:27.000 That's not hyperbolic, so that they can use the government as a political arm to target you, and of course, not to mention, he supports men who have been men their entire lives, and within one year, beating the shit out of women in sports. 0.92

00:39:39.000 And you wanted to, look, Barack Obama, to give you an idea, when we talk about divisive, Barack Obama went into office He was whisked into office opposing gay marriage. 0.94

00:39:52.000 Donald Trump was the only president ever elected who had supported gay marriage before he went into office.

00:39:58.000 Whether I agree with him or not doesn't matter right now.

00:40:00.000 If you were to go back to Barack Obama, meaning in 2008, 2009, 2010, I don't remember when he changed his mind, it was for political expediency, and if you were to tell Barack Hussein Obama. 0.98

00:40:10.000 Hey, by the way, you're going to have to make sure that men with penises and testicles can fight women and compete at the Olympics. 1.00

00:40:16.000 He'd say, no, no, come on, you're bringing up a straw man with your bullshit. 1.00

00:40:21.000 The 70s are calling, they want their politics back. 1.00

00:40:23.000 Seriously?

00:40:24.000 You think that anti-gay marriage Barack Obama would have a chip to compute 32 year old men breaking the orbital bones of women in sports?

00:40:32.000 And we act like Donald Trump is radical.

00:40:34.000 So Donald Trump just says, oh no no no, I'm not going, no men compete with men, women compete with women, right?

00:40:40.000 Yeah.

00:40:40.000 Biden goes, well, you know, however you want to identify, and women should just get used to it, and we have to redraft up Title IX because it was to protect women's sports, but, you know, and there's, no!

00:40:48.000 This is, when it's, when it is determined by what you think you have to do to be woke, it inevitably becomes radical.

00:40:55.000 This is a party that is politically beholden to Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and Kamala Harris, not to mention Navarro, I don't care how many decades ago she was a Republican. 0.97

00:41:08.000 And if they're doing all this crap publicly, saying all this, making these the issues, what do you think they're doing behind your back? 0.97

00:41:16.000 They're trying to screw you, get your money. 0.99

00:41:18.000 These are all these nonsense they throw out there to make it seem like they care. 0.95

00:41:23.000 That's one of the things I hate about politics.

00:41:26.000 Yeah, when will they get old?

00:41:28.000 When will it get old when somebody just tells you what you want to hear, but then does something completely different, and you don't have the time to go and look into the matter and see that they did something different?

00:41:36.000 That's what Trump did differently, too.

00:41:38.000 He said, I'm going to do this, and he did it.

00:41:40.000 Yeah.

00:41:41.000 Well, let me tell you why this is controversial, okay?

00:41:43.000 Especially when, and I don't want to be conspiratorial, the only conspiracy that I hold is whoever's in charge of the photography for John Travolta VHS tapes, because it's always the same picture.

00:41:51.000 I don't think he's ever taken a new headshot, but we'll get to that.

00:41:53.000 That's a whole other segment that we're going to do one day.

00:41:55.000 However, you follow the money trail.

00:41:57.000 And you look at these international corporations for the same reason that they couldn't discuss China.

00:42:05.000 For the same reason that they couldn't discuss a lot of these foreign issues because of basically them being beholden to foreign financial actors.

00:42:12.000 Let's put it that way.

00:42:14.000 Like the World Health Organization not acknowledging Taiwan.

00:42:16.000 I don't think this is a conspiracy when it happens in plain sight, but I am asking you to extrapolate that and apply it a little bit to places like CNN, to places like Time Warner, to places like Disney Universal.

00:42:28.000 China is a huge market.

00:42:30.000 When you look at the policies that were most controversial, What most offends the media when they say Donald Trump is divisive is he committed the cardinal sin of enacting policies that put you, the American, first.

00:42:41.000 And I would even say you, the American woman, first in that you shouldn't have to compete against men. 0.89

00:42:45.000 But let's even talk about this on a more geopolitical level.

00:42:49.000 Okay, Donald Trump, what did he do?

00:42:50.000 Force Canada and European nations to pay their fair share in NATO.

00:42:53.000 What was the original agreement?

00:42:54.000 Was it 2%?

00:42:54.000 3%?

00:42:54.000 They were paying about 0.4.

00:42:56.000 Sources available at livewithcada.com.

00:42:58.000 I'm going by rote right now.

00:42:59.000 He left the Paris Agreement.

00:43:00.000 He left the World Health Organization.

00:43:02.000 Keep in mind, people were saying, I can't believe he did that.

00:43:04.000 This was after the World Health Organization said, no, COVID cannot transmit from human to human.

00:43:09.000 They said that we do not advise the travel bans.

00:43:11.000 And they refused to acknowledge Taiwan as anything.

00:43:16.000 They hung up on the call.

00:43:17.000 They acted like Taiwan is this metaphysical concept.

00:43:22.000 Stuff on China, tariffs, brought jobs back, and what do you do?

00:43:25.000 You force Mexico to stop migrants from coming over the border by levying a tariff.

00:43:29.000 These were the policies that were considered impermissible and divisive.

00:43:32.000 So just be clear, it's not the media versus Donald Trump, and it's not the left versus right.

00:43:36.000 We know that the entire media, with the exception of maybe Fox News and the exception of a few shows like this, right, but the entire mainstream media, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, They lean left.

00:43:49.000 It's the media versus you.

00:43:52.000 It's the media versus America first.

00:43:55.000 Looking out for the American.

00:43:56.000 And this is how you get to the point where no one would have believed that Donald Trump, a guy raised in the lap of luxury, wealthy his entire life, beautiful penthouses, right?

00:44:05.000 You're talking about beautiful private schools.

00:44:07.000 Every opportunity handed to him somehow seemed more relatable to the working man than someone like Joe Biden, who talks about his boxing gym behind Amy's Diner, which never existed.

00:44:18.000 And the reason for it is just because Donald Trump, look, I think he had a heart for the average American, and guess what?

00:44:25.000 The average American was doing better.

00:44:26.000 White, black, red and yellow.

00:44:28.000 Black and white there, precious in his sight.

00:44:30.000 If you're more offended at the red and yellow in there, you should think about the precious in his sight.

00:44:34.000 Jesus loves the children of the world.

00:44:36.000 But you can go screw yourself. 0.56

00:44:37.000 My point here is this is what happened.

00:44:39.000 He believed That Americans should come first, since he was the President of the United States of America, and that was impermissible, and so the media attacked, attacked, attacked, and then they go, look how divided we are.

00:44:49.000 Do you really think you have a former Vice President right now who's putting America first?

00:44:54.000 But they don't question him on any of it.

00:44:55.000 Why?

00:44:55.000 They don't want you to be put first.

00:44:56.000 Because that's not in their financial best interest.

00:44:58.000 You were about to say something there, Dave.

00:44:59.000 I thought.

00:44:59.000 No?

00:45:00.000 I forgot.

00:45:01.000 Okay.

00:45:01.000 Well, this is also something really important.

00:45:04.000 And I know you're hungry.

00:45:05.000 This is something really important to Biden, of course, former Vice President Joe Biden.

00:45:08.000 You don't have to take my word for it. 0.99

00:45:09.000 You know, LeVar Burton and this shit. 0.99

00:45:12.000 He's the laughingstock of the rest of the world at this point. 1.00

00:45:15.000 We're not more respected.

00:45:16.000 We all know that.

00:45:20.000 How are your meetings going in Cornwall, Mr. President?

00:45:26.000 I did not, I certainly did.

00:45:30.000 But you get an answer twice.

00:45:33.000 But now we see Biden on stage.

00:45:36.000 A traditional elite, a political elite.

00:45:40.000 How are your meetings going in Cornwall, Mr. President?

00:45:45.000 How are your meetings going here in Cornwall?

00:45:49.000 Yes, you've got to play Cornhole.

00:45:52.000 Yeah, and that's not even what we're doing.

00:45:57.000 We don't have video, but I think Angela can bring up the picture of Macron putting his finger in the face of the president.

00:46:04.000 Look at this!

00:46:06.000 Like a father scolding a child.

00:46:07.000 Donald Trump would either break that finger off or have somebody else do it afterward.

00:46:12.000 Excuse me, get that French finger out of my face. 1.00

00:46:14.000 You really think we're more respectful?

00:46:15.000 And this is the point, you can't appease the rest of the world by putting Americans last and expect them to respect you. 0.56

00:46:20.000 No nation respects the leader of a nation who doesn't put their own nation first.

00:46:24.000 What's going on here, Dave?

00:46:25.000 I'm hungry.

00:46:26.000 Okay, well look, if you're that hungry, we have Bilt Bars here, I've told you.

00:46:29.000 What do you mean we have Bilt Bars?

00:46:31.000 Yeah, just go into the office, get yourself one, come back, hit the reset button.

00:46:33.000 We've had Bilt Bars the whole time.

00:46:34.000 We have, go get one.

00:46:35.000 The whole time.

00:46:36.000 Yes, go get one.

00:46:37.000 Now.

00:46:37.000 Yeah, go.

00:46:38.000 🎵 🎵

00:46:52.000 Hey! 0.99

00:46:53.000 Oh, hey Dave.

00:46:55.000 🎵 🎵

00:47:19.000 All right, well, Bill Parr.

00:47:21.000 Hey, by the way, you can go right now to BillParr.com.

00:47:25.000 Feeling better?

00:47:27.000 We make no claims, by the way.

00:47:29.000 Did I hurt Manny again?

00:47:30.000 Dave's an outlier.

00:47:32.000 That's why he was removed from the clinical trial.

00:47:35.000 Go to BuiltBar.com, Crowder 15, you get 15% off.

00:47:37.000 Look, people have asked, I don't really, I'm not a big believer in supplements.

00:47:40.000 You don't need to eat protein bars, just to be clear.

00:47:43.000 However, these things taste like actual candy.

00:47:45.000 They're very good.

00:47:46.000 So I eat a few of them probably every week, just at night, so I don't eat dessert.

00:47:49.000 Because, you know, I don't need any more of this.

00:47:51.000 They want me to get down below 230 for the surgery that's coming up.

00:47:54.000 Are you close?

00:47:57.000 I figured I'd get in a sauna suit and sweat it out.

00:47:59.000 Are you going to cut weight for surgery?

00:48:02.000 I'm going to cut weight for surgery!

00:48:06.000 I'm going to get in an Epsom salt bath chewing on a towel filled with ice chips.

00:48:14.000 Honestly, they are delicious.

00:48:14.000 Someone told me you can put the Bilt Bars in the freezer, too.

00:48:17.000 Oh, really?

00:48:17.000 And it's like a frozen Snickers.

00:48:19.000 I don't know, the salted caramel just tastes like one of those boxes.

00:48:20.000 You can also leave them in your car and ruin them.

00:48:22.000 Yes, that's true!

00:48:24.000 No, I'd say the coconut.

00:48:27.000 Dude, I am with those.

00:48:27.000 Are you a coconut guy?

00:48:29.000 Yeah, I'm not a big coconut guy, but I know people who love coconut, love the coconut.

00:48:34.000 But those people are freaks.

00:48:36.000 So people say divisive.

00:48:38.000 Divisive.

00:48:39.000 I know, people have corrected me on that.

00:48:41.000 It's very divisive.

00:48:42.000 It also was in Canada and they put a line.

00:48:44.000 in an envelope.

00:48:46.000 An envelope.

00:48:48.000 Sunsealed dilemma, not you!

00:48:50.000 By the way, comment on what your opinion here on who was actually more divisive.

00:48:54.000 I want to know objectively if you thought that Donald Trump was more divisive or if it was Joe Biden.

00:48:58.000 I think, again, Donald Trump called out the liars. 1.00

00:49:00.000 Joe Biden is a liar. 0.99

00:49:01.000 Not saying that Donald Trump is an angel. 1.00

00:49:02.000 Believe me.

00:49:03.000 No, no, no, we definitely understand that. 1.00

00:49:04.000 But look, Joe Biden is a useful idiot right now on the world stage. 1.00

00:49:07.000 They want him there. 1.00

00:49:08.000 There's a reason that Putin said, the guy that has killed people, his job in the KGB was to do that.

00:49:13.000 He said, ah, he's a moral man. 0.99

00:49:14.000 Do you think he gives a crap about morality? 0.73

00:49:18.000 He is a man that he can manipulate, so of course he would want to keep him exactly where he is. 0.98

00:49:22.000 The world is going to love us as long as we're weak.

00:49:25.000 Yeah, you can just use him like a wind-up doll.

00:49:27.000 Look at him!

00:49:28.000 Get former Vice President Biden these symbols and little hat, huh?

00:49:32.000 What? 0.89

00:49:33.000 He's like chimp! 1.00

00:49:35.000 He's like chimp! 1.00

00:49:37.000 Come on, man! 0.55

00:49:38.000 Clank, clank.

00:49:39.000 Yeah, I think the world also hated Churchill.

00:49:41.000 That turned out well for him.

00:49:42.000 Make him ride unicycle.

00:49:42.000 It's true.

00:49:44.000 Yes!

00:49:46.000 Again?

00:49:46.000 No!

00:49:46.000 He fell off right away.

00:49:48.000 He's not good at riding unicycle.

00:49:50.000 What do we do with him?

00:49:51.000 Send him to Michael Vick.

00:49:52.000 He'll take care of it.

00:49:53.000 He's very good.

00:49:56.000 Bed, bath and beyond.

00:49:57.000 Just no bed.

00:50:00.000 You want Michael Vick to drown him in a... We don't have a pool.

00:50:04.000 Just take kiddie pool.

00:50:05.000 Turn him over.

00:50:06.000 He will know how to fix.

00:50:07.000 Take him to shark jail.

00:50:09.000 Yes, exactly.

00:50:11.000 By the way, we have a segment here before we leave to Mug Club.

00:50:15.000 The World Health Organization has been watching this show.

00:50:18.000 Allegedly.

00:50:19.000 We talked about something yesterday that we pointed out, and within hours it was changed.

00:50:24.000 And we had the same thing not long ago with the children and COVID.

00:50:26.000 But right now, before we get to that, this was number one trend all over social media here for a little bit of time online.

00:50:36.000 A lot of people said they didn't know who Macy Gray was, which surprised me.

00:50:39.000 Zoomers? 1.00

00:50:40.000 Yeah.

00:50:41.000 She wrote an op-ed advocating for a new national flag.

00:50:45.000 And I know people say, why do you care?

00:50:47.000 It's not that Macy Gray said this.

00:50:48.000 It's that a bunch of blue verified checkmarks who are journalists on Twitter were saying, why is this a radical idea?

00:50:55.000 Yeah, but you said a 23% corporate tax was radical, so I don't know, I think changing the emblem of our nation should qualify.

00:51:04.000 So, she said that we need a new national flag in honor of Juneteenth.

00:51:08.000 I think we have a clip.

00:51:10.000 Macy Gray believes it's time for a new flag to represent the United States of America.

00:51:15.000 In an essay shared on the stock market news site MarketWatch, Macy shared her thoughts on why she thinks the current flag no longer represents the U.S.

00:51:23.000 and what it should be replaced with.

00:51:24.000 She starts off her message by saying, quote, President Biden, Madam Harris, and members of the Congress.

00:51:30.000 The American flag has been hijacked.

00:51:32.000 It's code for a specific belief.

00:51:34.000 God bless those believers, they can have it.

00:51:36.000 Like the Confederate, it is tattered, dated, divisive, and incorrect.

00:51:40.000 It no longer represents democracy and freedom.

00:51:43.000 It no longer represents all of us. 1.00

00:51:45.000 Okay, first off, this is also the problem with very stupid people and people not calling them out as stupid, lest they be feared. 1.00

00:51:53.000 Let's say for the accusation of racism. 1.00

00:51:55.000 Let's just say it, honestly.

00:51:56.000 She said, it is incorrect.

00:51:58.000 Okay, so that's a statement that requires qualification.

00:52:02.000 What is incorrect about the American flag?

00:52:05.000 What is the factual error of the American flag?

00:52:08.000 They'd like another star to be D.C.

00:52:11.000 Right, and she was saying in Puerto Rico.

00:52:14.000 However, that doesn't mean that it's incorrect.

00:52:17.000 It means you're incorrect, simply because D.C.

00:52:19.000 is not a state.

00:52:21.000 Nor Puerto Rico.

00:52:22.000 So the truth is, when we're speaking factually, you are incorrect, despite, obviously, the qualifications that must come with writing an op-ed at Market Watch about the flag.

00:52:33.000 I don't understand.

00:52:36.000 It'd be like Yakov Smirnoff going on CNN right now, having a show to talk about, you know, criticized jugglers.

00:52:44.000 What is happening here in country?

00:52:46.000 We used to have good jugglers.

00:52:47.000 It's just not appropriate.

00:52:48.000 She's writing about the flag at Market Watch? 0.97

00:52:51.000 In Russia, balls juggle you. 0.98

00:52:53.000 Balls juggle you! 1.00

00:52:54.000 She has an embarrassment of freedom.

00:52:56.000 This is the thing.

00:52:57.000 She has so much freedom that she has no idea what it's like in the rest of the world.

00:53:01.000 You're telling me that she has a lot of time on her hands. 0.99

00:53:03.000 Well yeah, she does.

00:53:04.000 Travel around the world and ask them what America's like.

00:53:06.000 I try to pass the time and I'm bored.

00:53:09.000 Think about swallowing a sword.

00:53:11.000 Oh, well, don't do that.

00:53:14.000 I got no hit singles coming out of here.

00:53:17.000 How do I get back?

00:53:19.000 I just say I haven't had a single in here.

00:53:23.000 By the way, that that symbol behind you.

00:53:23.000 Yeah.

00:53:25.000 I try to write one and I stumble. 1.00

00:53:28.000 I will kill both of you with these hands! 1.00

00:53:30.000 Because I am a drunk, yeah. 1.00

00:53:32.000 And I do.

00:53:33.000 Heroin and methamphetamine.

00:53:36.000 Alright, so, you're right.

00:53:38.000 This symbol is hateful.

00:53:39.000 No, I did not say that.

00:53:41.000 What I'm saying is that stands for freedom.

00:53:42.000 Name a freer place on the planet.

00:53:45.000 We'll run it up the poll.

00:53:46.000 We'll run that flag up the poll if you can name that place.

00:53:48.000 I rhyme words and it is not clear.

00:53:51.000 You know, it's a good point.

00:53:53.000 Maybe Luxembourg?

00:53:54.000 No. 1.00

00:53:55.000 Well, shit. 1.00

00:53:56.000 I don't even know what Luxembourg is. 1.00

00:53:58.000 It's basically a fake financial state where people put their money.

00:54:00.000 It's the only place in the world with a higher average income than the United States, too, because it's basically just a bunch of banks.

00:54:05.000 It's not a real place.

00:54:07.000 So here is the argument.

00:54:08.000 I want you to see the argument that has been made from the left supporting Of course, Macy Gray.

00:54:13.000 It's not that Macy Gray said it.

00:54:14.000 It's that people amplify this, and this goes back to the idea of cancel culture.

00:54:17.000 It's not that one person says this is offensive.

00:54:20.000 It's that a bunch of other people in positions of power deem it offensive enough to get you removed, to take away your livelihood.

00:54:27.000 In this case, it's not that one singer who hasn't had a single in years, which doesn't make her unqualified, mind you.

00:54:33.000 It just means that obviously this is someone who is a useful pawn to the media, and they choose which voices and which opinions warrant Elevation.

00:54:42.000 For example, if, uh, what's it, James Woods has an opinion, right?

00:54:46.000 They go, washed up actor James Woods, who just had a number one show not long ago, and James Woods, you'd be hard-pressed to find an actor who people don't respect as an actor.

00:54:54.000 Or Clint Eastwood.

00:54:55.000 Clint Eastwood, who hasn't had a good film since Sully, here's Macy Gray!

00:54:58.000 Yeah.

00:55:00.000 So that's the point.

00:55:01.000 See what trickery is going on here. 0.96

00:55:02.000 So these are some of the arguments that I've heard people making as to why we need to change the flag, and they're silly. 0.96

00:55:07.000 They hold no water.

00:55:08.000 One is, well, the flag's been redesigned before, right?

00:55:10.000 We hear this.

00:55:11.000 This is all over Twitter.

00:55:12.000 We have dozens of designs of the flags at the, I think you can bring this up, the Collage H, at the Philadelphia Museum.

00:55:17.000 Why not now?

00:55:18.000 Okay.

00:55:20.000 I don't know why I should have to explain this.

00:55:24.000 But when you're a new nation, okay, and you're creating a flag, obviously some changes happen.

00:55:30.000 For example, you may not have the same number of stars to represent states when there are no states.

00:55:37.000 So this is what happened.

00:55:39.000 There was eventually an agreement on the flag that incorporated stars and stripes and then eventually stars into states.

00:55:45.000 And here's the thing, too.

00:55:46.000 When we change them, We changed the number of stars, for example, or the layout of stars to avoid the flag being cluttered, right, aesthetically.

00:55:55.000 It wasn't a change of what the flag represented!

00:55:58.000 There were no monumental changes.

00:55:58.000 Let's be real.

00:56:00.000 There weren't arbitrary changes of colors, of symbolism, of what the flag meant.

00:56:05.000 Like, hey, we had stars up there that represent states.

00:56:07.000 Now they're going to represent Jefferson's horses.

00:56:09.000 That never happened.

00:56:11.000 It's always been the same.

00:56:13.000 And this also matters when people say, well, we added people to the Supreme Court at one point.

00:56:17.000 And they don't talk about the historical context.

00:56:19.000 The historical context here is the flag that we have right now with 50 states is the longest standing flag.

00:56:24.000 It's been there for...

00:56:28.000 61 years.

00:56:29.000 61 years.

00:56:31.000 And then the last flag right before it, the only difference was 48 stars.

00:56:33.000 47 years.

00:56:35.000 So really, from 17, 240-plus years, the flag has remained virtually unchanged outside of adding stars as we have new states.

00:56:45.000 Well, the circle.

00:56:46.000 Right, the circle.

00:56:47.000 Which I got upset when they changed to the square.

00:56:49.000 You know, it's one of those things.

00:56:50.000 It's kind of like when they decide with the iPhone to go beveled to no bevel.

00:56:54.000 You're like, what?

00:56:55.000 What's modern?

00:56:55.000 Is it rounded?

00:56:56.000 Is it angular?

00:56:57.000 I don't know.

00:56:58.000 I'm not in the Tron fan club.

00:57:00.000 Can have two circles?

00:57:03.000 I'm just saying, it's been a lot of money.

00:57:03.000 Aw.

00:57:05.000 It's getting dangerously close to the male symbol, so we have to avoid it.

00:57:09.000 Next thing you know, someone puts an arrow in there and you're in trouble.

00:57:12.000 Macy Gray and the left, they wanted to change colors, they wanted to change the symbolism, reasoning, because, again, the reasoning was, the current flag is racist, right?

00:57:21.000 This is something that's pretty important.

00:57:22.000 They're saying, we need to change it, we need to change the colors, we need to make it LGBTQAAIP inclusive, we need to make sure that it includes Washington D.C.

00:57:29.000 and Puerto Rico, and this is the issue with things like critical race theory.

00:57:33.000 It's a perfect example.

00:57:34.000 Look, in school you should learn, hey, when was America discovered?

00:57:38.000 Hey, Declaration of Independence.

00:57:39.000 Hey, what was the Civil War?

00:57:41.000 When was the Emancipation Proclamation signed?

00:57:44.000 Hey, okay, we had slavery. 0.65

00:57:46.000 Why did we end slavery? 0.98

00:57:47.000 Who opposed the abolition of slavery?

00:57:49.000 What happened throughout the Industrial Revolution, right?

00:57:51.000 These are the things that you should learn.

00:57:53.000 When you start teaching children, none of that stuff is important.

00:57:56.000 Racism, people have no foundation to understand.

00:57:59.000 This is why we have the flag.

00:58:01.000 This is why, also, other nations, be it World War II, be it other nations abroad, for example, being burned alive in cages, Christians in the Middle East, they are scanning the horizon in the hopes that the one beaking of a shining light they could see on the hill is that Stars and Stripes. 0.94

00:58:19.000 Because it means something to them.

00:58:21.000 That's why more people have died trying to get here than anywhere else.

00:58:26.000 Have you seen the boats some people have tried to make trips from in Cuba?

00:58:29.000 They're not even, they're not only not seaworthy, they're not even buoyant.

00:58:33.000 Like car doors and stuff.

00:58:34.000 Car doors and coolers.

00:58:35.000 Right.

00:58:36.000 Some styrofoam.

00:58:37.000 But to them, here's the thing, the Cuban-American immigrant knows more about why America is America than Macy Gray. 0.96

00:58:46.000 Of course.

00:58:47.000 Like you said, her privilege, her privilege, her freedom is embarrassing. 0.99

00:58:51.000 You can't in the same breath say, hey, it's racist for us to have a wall to not open up our borders to every single caravan that wants to come here and say, by the way, our flag is a symbol of hate.

00:59:03.000 It's like the Bethlehem Star for these people.

00:59:06.000 And I understand it.

00:59:07.000 And that's why I'm sympathetic to people who want to come to this country.

00:59:10.000 But they have to do it legally.

00:59:12.000 Macy Gray's never thought about this.

00:59:14.000 And more importantly, the senior editors at CNN and Market Watch and Forbes and Newsweek. 0.99

00:59:19.000 It's asinine. 0.96

00:59:21.000 But that's why you want critical race theory in schools. 0.98

00:59:23.000 Because you want the asinine to become normalized. 0.95

00:59:26.000 Yes.

00:59:27.000 It's like dating somebody who just, you can't make happy.

00:59:31.000 You just keep throwing stuff at them.

00:59:31.000 Right.

00:59:33.000 You mean like dating Macy Gray?

00:59:35.000 Yeah, like dating Macy Gray.

00:59:38.000 Right, it doesn't matter what you do, though.

00:59:40.000 It's just more and more and more.

00:59:41.000 Every time they get something they want, it's something else that's oppressing them.

00:59:44.000 If you make it so they're not oppressed, then they have nothing to do.

00:59:47.000 Yeah.

00:59:48.000 So that's why the second you change something, it's just something else.

00:59:50.000 The flag's like, what do you want us to do to the flag?

00:59:54.000 If Al Sharpton woke- There's a rainbow over here.

00:59:57.000 I'm just wondering, like, what- Yeah, no, they want it to be a Skittles commercial.

01:00:00.000 If Al Sharpton woke up tomorrow and realized that racism was over, it would be like the first chapter and left behind.

01:00:07.000 Now I woke up today with a job to do, but there don't seem to be no shoes!

01:00:14.000 What are you saying?

01:00:15.000 It's empty!

01:00:16.000 What do I do? 1.00

01:00:17.000 Well, you're basically useless. 0.99

01:00:18.000 That's been a long time coming. 0.99

01:00:20.000 I want to ask Macy a question.

01:00:22.000 What flag design did the Union soldiers who freed the slaves wear?

01:00:26.000 I don't know, maybe that one would work for you, because I think it's the same one that's sitting right behind you right now.

01:00:31.000 No, those people are racist as well.

01:00:33.000 Hundreds of thousands of people died.

01:00:35.000 No, no, no, there was a party switch, just ask Robert Burr.

01:00:39.000 You have to just try and sift through all the n-bombs he drops, but you know, you'll find it. 1.00

01:00:43.000 I have the other team's flag all over my truck.

01:00:47.000 Also some rollerblades, I thought it was like a just-made decoration, I don't know.

01:00:52.000 Just gonna let y'all know, Manny sent over some pictures of the garbage raft.

01:00:57.000 Oh jeez, that's terrible.

01:00:58.000 Yeah, well I got to see them when I went to Guantanamo Bay.

01:01:01.000 Well Steven, what happened is they got close to the border and they said, have you changed the flag yet?

01:01:05.000 Because if you haven't, we're not coming, we're going back.

01:01:06.000 Well they got close and it was just Macy Gray and a loud speaker.

01:01:12.000 How come you go back?

01:01:14.000 Yo, yo, she's here. We thought she was done.

01:01:16.000 I don't care that they take our saxophone.

01:01:18.000 Anything is better than this.

01:01:20.000 Please, go back. Go away.

01:01:22.000 I love Chavez.

01:01:24.000 They're just like sitting there like an ex-lover on Batista's doorstep.

01:01:26.000 Please!

01:01:28.000 I know Batista. I know Batista's not. That's an old regime.

01:01:30.000 So. 1.00

01:01:30.000 Shut up. 1.00

01:01:32.000 Gotta float away, get eaten by a shark. 1.00

01:01:34.000 But at least it's not a racist shark.

01:01:37.000 Was it a tiger?

01:01:38.000 Or Mako?

01:01:40.000 I'm getting esoteric right now.

01:01:44.000 America is hotter, so you should build gallons of water into a boat.

01:01:51.000 All right.

01:01:52.000 This has run its course, much like Macy Gray.

01:01:56.000 I just meant the milk jugs.

01:01:59.000 So here's another argument that I heard.

01:02:01.000 I got it.

01:02:02.000 It's important.

01:02:02.000 Hold on.

01:02:05.000 We can float over here for hugs on a raft made of milk jugs.

01:02:14.000 That's what I was going for.

01:02:16.000 I was too busy laughing at the one you had just had.

01:02:19.000 Worse the wait.

01:02:21.000 Look, I'm not saying it was the best.

01:02:23.000 I'm just saying it worked.

01:02:25.000 I appreciate it.

01:02:28.000 Workshop it.

01:02:28.000 Buffalo, New York.

01:02:29.000 Buffalo, New York.

01:02:30.000 You can see me making Macy Gray jokes.

01:02:34.000 What's up with Buffalo?

01:02:36.000 I don't know much about your locality.

01:02:38.000 That joke's why I'm performing in a strip mall. 0.89

01:02:44.000 Just be sure to buy now, two drinks here, because there is a minimum drink.

01:02:52.000 Dear Lord, help.

01:02:54.000 And then Macy Gray just happens to be in the strip mall. 0.99

01:02:56.000 She's like, what the fuck? 1.00

01:02:57.000 That's copyrighted! 1.00

01:03:01.000 I don't have time for this shit! 0.99

01:03:02.000 And his manager's like, actually, according to the schedule, you do. 1.00

01:03:05.000 All kinds of time.

01:03:06.000 A lot of time.

01:03:07.000 I got nothing but time!

01:03:09.000 So here's another argument that we see from the left, and I saw this all over Twitter.

01:03:13.000 Again, blue checkmarks and people are like, oh yeah, listen, for people who say the flag matters, you don't want to change it, who fly the Trump flag or the thin blue line flag, you've lost a leg to stand on.

01:03:23.000 Okay.

01:03:25.000 Now this is an argument that passes for the CNN room or the Stephen Colbert writing.

01:03:29.000 Look, almost always, almost invariably, when you see the Trump flag or the Thin Blue Line flag, it's alongside people who also carry the American flag because they don't deem it offensive, right?

01:03:40.000 It was never meant to replace the American flag.

01:03:42.000 Have you ever seen someone Opine that we need to do away with the American flag and replace it with the thin blue line flag?

01:03:49.000 But because they honor the flag, and unlike Macy Gray on the left, who hate America, which is why they say Donald Trump was so divisive, because his policy put America first, starting to see the thread here, they, of course, will not carry the flag.

01:03:49.000 No, not at all.

01:04:02.000 Look, I challenge you this, okay?

01:04:04.000 First off, the MAGA flag, right, the Trump thing, this is basically a bumper sticker that was turned into a flag.

01:04:08.000 You won't find Donald Trump rallies or official rallies where people are flying out and there isn't an American flag there, okay?

01:04:13.000 Just won't happen.

01:04:14.000 Usually, I want you to try this too.

01:04:16.000 See a truck with the thin blue line flag or look at houses that they have the thin blue line flag.

01:04:20.000 Count how many of them in your neighborhood and comment below, are alongside the American flag.

01:04:25.000 Now, For contrast, I want you to count how many of the rainbow Peter Puffing flags are alongside American flags.

01:04:32.000 Because that is something I've never understood.

01:04:35.000 If you're going to say that America is this symbol of hate and oppression, okay, how many porches do you think in Iran have the Iranian flag next to the LGBTQ AIP? 0.66

01:04:47.000 Next to the body hanging?

01:04:49.000 That's really what it is.

01:04:49.000 Yes!

01:04:51.000 So, I don't understand it. 0.99

01:04:53.000 I mean, I get it, it's because you hate America, because obviously we could go through this rationally and go, well, it seems to me you could still love the rights and freedoms afforded here in America, and love penis.

01:05:03.000 And by the way, when police officers are basically being killed for sitting in their car in the wrong neighborhood, it's kind of okay to say, hey, I want to do something to support you. 0.93

01:05:13.000 I'll fly the American flag and the thin blue line.

01:05:14.000 Oh, you mean like the people, the organizations that Macy Gray supports?

01:05:18.000 Black Lives Matter?

01:05:18.000 Yeah, taking out police officers?

01:05:19.000 Record number of violence against police this last year?

01:05:22.000 Oh, okay.

01:05:22.000 Yeah.

01:05:23.000 Let's let your flag fly.

01:05:23.000 We understand.

01:05:25.000 By the way, there is a Black Lives Matter flag and an Antifa flag as well, okay? 0.56

01:05:29.000 And a gay flag, that's what I mean. 0.81

01:05:30.000 These flags do exist.

01:05:32.000 You can put them up.

01:05:33.000 Why do you have to mess with the American flag?

01:05:35.000 Because they hate the United States of America.

01:05:37.000 It's like, just put up the flag you want.

01:05:38.000 Nobody said you couldn't.

01:05:39.000 Yeah, people are like, this is tribalism.

01:05:41.000 Sure.

01:05:42.000 Look, I'm not a centrist drawing a line on the sand.

01:05:44.000 When you say we need to change the American flag because it's racist, sexist, homophobic, and incorrect, I say, no, you are incorrect.

01:05:51.000 That's it! 0.99

01:05:52.000 And it doesn't represent freedom, that's the dumbest part of this argument. 0.98

01:05:55.000 It shows that you've done zero research on the rest of the world. 0.96

01:05:58.000 I don't even call it tribalism, it's just patriotism.

01:06:00.000 Yeah, at one point that used to be okay.

01:06:02.000 Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that.

01:06:04.000 Now it's almost like drawing half the Christian fish. 0.99

01:06:05.000 You see an American flag, 90% chance they're a conservative.

01:06:08.000 That's the reality.

01:06:08.000 You may not like it, it's true.

01:06:10.000 Unless you can make your own flag.

01:06:12.000 Yeah, well actually we have an exclusive look at what Macy Gray's new flag looks like.

01:06:16.000 It's aiming to be as inclusive as possible.

01:06:18.000 I think, yeah.

01:06:19.000 Oh, I like it.

01:06:20.000 It's basically just the intro to Space Odyssey with corporations.

01:06:23.000 Ah, corporate sponsorship, man.

01:06:25.000 I hate it.

01:06:25.000 That's a good thing.

01:06:28.000 They're in everything.

01:06:30.000 I know, I'm surprised as well that it wasn't Kool's.

01:06:32.000 I know, but it's still funny.

01:06:34.000 Well, they're taking away menthol.

01:06:36.000 We don't want to endanger anybody.

01:06:37.000 Right, yeah.

01:06:39.000 Even reading one of those labels could kill you evidently.

01:06:41.000 It's always funny to me.

01:06:42.000 This is how they do everything wrong, the government.

01:06:44.000 I remember I went into an audition once, okay?

01:06:47.000 I don't know if people want this little inside baseball, but I went into an audition with one of the most well-known comedy casting agents of our generation.

01:06:54.000 And she was like, yeah, and I heard you've seen so many stuff that you're more conservative.

01:06:58.000 You know, that's not really common in this.

01:07:00.000 I said, well, and this is how he answered exactly.

01:07:00.000 Why is that?

01:07:03.000 I said, without getting into detail, I tend to believe that individuals, when given the freedom and ability to make their own decisions, do them more effectively, relatively speaking, to bureaucrats in DC.

01:07:19.000 And that's why I'm a conservative.

01:07:20.000 And she said, oh, well, that's an interesting way.

01:07:22.000 I can understand that.

01:07:23.000 Don't ever say that if you want to work in this industry again.

01:07:27.000 Because most people aren't as tolerant as I am, is what she said.

01:07:30.000 Wow.

01:07:32.000 You meet a lot of people in Hollywood though that are closet conservatives.

01:07:35.000 But the point that I was making there is I said that because I truly believe the government almost

01:07:40.000 screws everything up, generally speaking. The examples they tried out when they tried to say

01:07:44.000 your social security check, that's a screw up. I mean how many times have we had to raid a slush fund?

01:07:48.000 You know who else believes that though?

01:07:50.000 That principle that you just basically espouse as Republicans?

01:07:54.000 They just believe it with religion.

01:07:54.000 Democrats.

01:07:56.000 They believe that human beings are generally good when they're unshackled from this oppressive God.

01:08:03.000 My point with the government here, because we started with cigarettes, and then I got off on a side track, a tangent.

01:08:08.000 Thanks, Dave, and your restless leg syndrome.

01:08:10.000 No, no.

01:08:11.000 Seriously.

01:08:12.000 It's a disease.

01:08:14.000 The FDA I think it's the FDA, I don't know who else, the tobacco, the anti-tobacco lobbyists and all that stuff.

01:08:14.000 Think about this.

01:08:21.000 They got together, okay?

01:08:22.000 There was a meeting of the minds.

01:08:25.000 The best and the brightest among us, let's be really clear.

01:08:28.000 And they said, we need to do something about smoking.

01:08:31.000 Because it seems that cigarette smoke is bad for teenagers.

01:08:35.000 And they said, okay, let's look at the component, this is the government, keep in mind, our best and brightest.

01:08:40.000 They looked at the cigarette, they probably had a little box, moved it around, said, okay, what is a cigarette?

01:08:45.000 Got a whiteboard, wrote it down, okay, right?

01:08:47.000 What's causing harm?

01:08:48.000 Okay.

01:08:49.000 Oh, what is the best thing that we could do to try and curb behavior without infringing on rights?

01:08:52.000 I know!

01:08:53.000 We'll ban the menthol component of the cigarette!

01:08:57.000 That seems to be the primary offender here!

01:09:00.000 Also, vape juice!

01:09:02.000 Yeah, this is... The best and brightest!

01:09:04.000 Put them in charge of your retirement, you dumbasses! 1.00

01:09:09.000 More accurate. 1.00

01:09:10.000 The menthol!

01:09:11.000 It's the same as like, even I understood when I was young, even though whatever, the Joe Camel thing, it's like, look it's a cartoon, it appeals to kids, I understand.

01:09:19.000 Menthol cigarettes, there's no reason.

01:09:22.000 It's like Spuds McKenzie, who by the way died of complication of liver failure and HIV.

01:09:27.000 Oh wow.

01:09:28.000 That dog got busy.

01:09:29.000 I thought he just met Michael Vick.

01:09:35.000 He was already, uh... Those were the ones who were really bad fighters.

01:09:37.000 He slow killed them.

01:09:38.000 That was his early days. 0.98

01:09:39.000 It's okay, though.

01:09:39.000 He did, uh, he passed out flyers at the mall.

01:09:41.000 Spuds McKenzie's just walking into a Michael Vick party.

01:09:44.000 Never walks out.

01:09:46.000 Hey, guys!

01:09:47.000 Oh, hell.

01:09:47.000 Oh, that's hilarious.

01:09:49.000 Well, and also not.

01:09:50.000 Right.

01:09:51.000 I don't even know where I was going with that.

01:09:52.000 The point you were making earlier about the menthol.

01:09:54.000 I get rid of that because you're going, okay, this appeals to kids, whatever.

01:09:57.000 I collected the Marlboro Miles when I was like 14 because I smoked and I'm like, don't get me a pool table. 0.91

01:10:04.000 It's ridiculous.

01:10:05.000 I can understand that, but the taking away menthol is really, I honestly see it as racist. 0.84

01:10:05.000 Give me that jacket. 0.84

01:10:12.000 Really? 0.98

01:10:12.000 Because it's a cigarette that's more commonly smoked by black people. 0.98

01:10:17.000 That's true.

01:10:17.000 That's just a fact.

01:10:18.000 And if it's something that somebody enjoys, I'm not saying you should do it, but if you enjoy it, you're an adult, you're able to make that decision that you're allowed to have a cigarette, you should be able to have it.

01:10:27.000 That's just my opinion.

01:10:28.000 Wow. 0.99

01:10:30.000 Racist. 0.98

01:10:30.000 I just think I heard Dave, I think I heard him say he's racist. 0.98

01:10:34.000 No, I don't even think Kool sells non-menthols, let's be honest. 1.00

01:10:38.000 No, I started on Newports because I was like, come on, Quarterback.

01:10:42.000 Of course, more blood.

01:10:44.000 We know this because you know what else?

01:10:45.000 You have the FDA studies.

01:10:47.000 They also said, hey, we want to reduce children smoking.

01:10:49.000 I understand that.

01:10:50.000 And so they decided to include among cigarettes Hand-rolled $8 or $9 cigars, along with Swisher Sweets, which by the way, a lot of these are Philly sweets.

01:11:01.000 They tend to be smoked in urban communities.

01:11:06.000 It's a cultural thing.

01:11:07.000 This has been around for a while.

01:11:09.000 But when they actually looked at the studies, because some people said, hey, hold on a second.

01:11:12.000 You're talking about mom-and-pop businesses where a hand-rolled cigar is very expensive.

01:11:16.000 We very much doubt that kids in junior high are purchasing $9, $10, $11, $12 cigars.

01:11:19.000 0% of children No.

01:11:25.000 We're starting with hand-rolled cigars.

01:11:27.000 None!

01:11:29.000 Well, I started with blackened mouths, but... That's a cigarette!

01:11:32.000 That's a cigarette with a wooden tip!

01:11:34.000 But even with those, of course they're not using cigars.

01:11:36.000 Because when they buy a cigar, it's a swish or sweet.

01:11:38.000 To get wet, then open it up with a razor blade, dump out the tobacco, fill it with pot, and have yourself a blunt party.

01:11:45.000 Yeah, unless it's Delta THC8, which abandons that.

01:11:49.000 Well then, I mean, you don't want that kind of pot out there.

01:11:52.000 No, no, you can have it. 1.00

01:11:53.000 Just have this gummy that'll make you see the devil's dick. 1.00

01:11:57.000 That's a quote. 1.00

01:11:58.000 That's a direct quote.

01:11:59.000 You're making the devil blush now.

01:12:00.000 That is a direct quote. 1.00

01:12:02.000 What if it's not a good dick? 0.99

01:12:03.000 It's all like, angled weird? 0.99

01:12:06.000 He's gotta have something going for him for anyone to have followed him in the fall.

01:12:10.000 That's true. 0.97

01:12:11.000 He's like, I know, I'm kind of a jerk, I've mistreated y'all, but... I'm beautiful! 0.98

01:12:18.000 He did bless me with one, though.

01:12:19.000 I don't want to be getting the butt vaccine!

01:12:25.000 For people who are tuning in later, it was the president of the Philippines who threatened his own citizens with a butt vaccine. 0.91

01:12:30.000 Terrible pun.

01:12:31.000 Imprisoned.

01:12:32.000 So this is something that was brought to my attention yesterday.

01:12:35.000 Gerald, you're going to be fired because you're too much of a liability, and every time you point something out, and it's linked at loudearthcredit.com as an official source, it changes.

01:12:45.000 I thought this was kind of funny.

01:12:46.000 It's like Ed Rooney's attendance computer.

01:12:49.000 So yesterday on the show, Gerald mentioned he was looking up something on his phone.

01:12:54.000 And I want to be very, very clear here.

01:12:56.000 None of us are expressing any opinions right now at all, because that would be impermissible.

01:13:02.000 And of course, those are my Mug Club members. 0.92

01:13:03.000 We'll talk later.

01:13:05.000 On the show, Gerald covered that the WHO, the World Health Organization's vaccine guidance on their own website yesterday at the time of, it was 11 o'clock Eastern maybe?

01:13:16.000 About 11, yeah.

01:13:17.000 11 o'clock yesterday, Gerald pointed out this.

01:13:19.000 The WHO did come out and say children should not be vaccinated for the moment.

01:13:24.000 This is from their website! 0.79

01:13:26.000 Well, s***.

01:13:28.000 So, yesterday, by yesterday afternoon, those giant bolded letters, which almost seems like they might be important? 0.92

01:13:38.000 Some would say.

01:13:39.000 Gone!

01:13:40.000 Oh! 0.60

01:13:41.000 Gone!

01:13:41.000 We have it available at ladderworthcredit.com.

01:13:43.000 We went through time machine so you can see the previous day and today.

01:13:46.000 Now it is replaced with non-bold.

01:13:48.000 Children and adolescents tend to have milder disease compared to adults, so unless they are part of a group at higher risk of severe COVID-19, it is less urgent to vaccinate them than older people.

01:13:58.000 Those with chronic health conditions and workers.

01:14:01.000 More evidence is needed on the use of different COVID-19 vaccines for children.

01:14:05.000 To be able to make general recommendations on vaccinating children against... Here's the thing.

01:14:09.000 Yesterday, you made a very clear recommendation that they should not be vaccinated.

01:14:15.000 And let's be clear.

01:14:15.000 There have been other national governing health authorities that made it clear that children should not be vaccinated.

01:14:22.000 Now, today... Well, not today.

01:14:24.000 Yesterday, within hours, they said, we can't make a recommendation.

01:14:27.000 And this is the issue, because we ran into this same issue with the CDC, again, not expressing any opinions, can you bring up the overlay so I don't get in trouble, where the original on CDC, when this was said on air, I'm just going to read the CDC, it said, the risk of complications for healthy children is higher for flu compared to COVID-19.

01:14:47.000 However, infants and children with underlying medical conditions are at increased risk for both flu and COVID-19.

01:14:52.000 The key there is the risk of complications for healthy children is higher for flu compared to COVID-19.

01:14:56.000 When that was quoted on air, that was the violation of YouTube guidelines.

01:15:02.000 Not the quote, exactly.

01:15:03.000 They said it could be, I think the commentary could be misinterpreted as though COVID isn't dangerous, which is not true.

01:15:09.000 This was on the CDC website.

01:15:10.000 When we brought attention to it, then there's one hard strike later, the CDC changed it to read, For young children, especially children younger than five years old, the risks of serious complications is higher for flu compared to COVID-19.

01:15:22.000 However, serious COVID-19 illness resulting in hospitalization and death can even occur in healthy young children.

01:15:28.000 They changed it to minimize, well, we don't really know, but here's what's important.

01:15:32.000 When you go from, hey, don't do X, don't vaccinate children, it's not recommended, to, oh, we don't know.

01:15:39.000 What science, we're talking about science, what science changed in three hours?

01:15:44.000 Is there a new study that we don't know about?

01:15:46.000 This is all I'm saying, because I want to be able to trust the scientific process.

01:15:50.000 The scientific process should be Gerald says something at 11 a.m.

01:15:53.000 Eastern that's bolded on the World Health Organization.

01:15:55.000 Right.

01:15:56.000 You just have to sort of, you know, you have to sift through the Taiwan doesn't exist comments.

01:16:02.000 And I think they have to be held accountable.

01:16:04.000 they say, oh, we don't have any info to make a recommendation.

01:16:06.000 So then either you made a recommendation based on bogus information before,

01:16:10.000 or there's no new information and now it's a political change.

01:16:13.000 That is my point. That is why you don't have trust in institutions.

01:16:18.000 It's not Americans' fault. It's yours. 0.94

01:16:20.000 Well, and I think they have to be held accountable. Why did you make the change?

01:16:24.000 So you owe an explanation to us because I believe that link, that page,

01:16:29.000 those recommendations came out within the last week, maybe 10 days, something like that.

01:16:32.000 that if I'm off by a little bit.

01:16:33.000 It's definitely within this month, right?

01:16:36.000 Not long ago.

01:16:38.000 You asked the question, what changed?

01:16:39.000 Okay, fine.

01:16:39.000 That's all I want to know!

01:16:40.000 Now you need to tell us why you thought it was so important to remove what is a very important part of this.

01:16:46.000 The bolded sections tend to draw people's attention on purpose, because this is where you need to focus your attention, then below it you explain what the point is.

01:16:54.000 You change that, and then you change the write-up for it.

01:16:56.000 Why?

01:16:56.000 And here's the issue right now.

01:16:57.000 You are seeing this in real time, because we've talked about this in the past.

01:17:00.000 They switched on asymptomatic carriers.

01:17:02.000 They switched on masks.

01:17:03.000 They switched on double masks.

01:17:04.000 They switched, right, on it being a lab leak.

01:17:06.000 You're experiencing in real time, right now, people trying to navigate their lives and make decisions based on information that changes arbitrarily.

01:17:13.000 Look, lest you claim I'm an anti-vaxxer, let me be really clear.

01:17:17.000 97-year-old grandma who's had bronchial issues, I wanted her vaccinated as soon as humanly possible. 0.74

01:17:23.000 I bet.

01:17:24.000 Why?

01:17:24.000 Because I looked through the information that had been provided, data, and we had a lot of data on older people, and specifically people who may be immunocompromised, and of course, the science seemed to be very clear that any risk is worth the reward for them.

01:17:38.000 Now, we need to be able to make this decision in real time, and before yesterday at 11, according to the World Health Organization, someone would look at it and go, okay, they're saying the science says don't do vaccinations for children, and you make that decision.

01:17:51.000 Then it changes three hours later.

01:17:54.000 You're seeing it happen in real time.

01:17:56.000 And then afterwards they say, if you're against us, you're against science.

01:17:59.000 Did some of you make that?

01:18:00.000 Hey, did some of you look at the World Health Organization and maybe cancel vaccinations with your kids?

01:18:05.000 And was that wrong to do?

01:18:08.000 What changed?

01:18:09.000 What information is there?

01:18:10.000 We know what the recommendations were and we know they went away.

01:18:13.000 And this happens all the time.

01:18:14.000 And I don't know, I don't want to be, but you mentioned it on the show and then things change.

01:18:17.000 This happens all the time.

01:18:18.000 I had to look at it like five times.

01:18:19.000 I actually tweeted this out and I was like, I wonder how long this is going to take to be taken down because I'm sure this is going to go against their policy.

01:18:25.000 Little did they know that, you know, it's like, just, I just took a screenshot of the website.

01:18:28.000 Yes.

01:18:28.000 And then somebody pointed out to me, I'll have to give them credit for it.

01:18:30.000 It was just like, uh, I think, I think something changed.

01:18:32.000 I was like, what?

01:18:33.000 I clicked the link and it was just gone.

01:18:34.000 Whoops.

01:18:35.000 Just absolutely gone.

01:18:37.000 That's unbelievable.

01:18:38.000 With no explanation.

01:18:39.000 I want to know who made the phone call.

01:18:40.000 I want to know who made the phone call and said, hey, you need to change this because people are actually taking what we say seriously and they're basing their decisions off of it.

01:18:47.000 Right.

01:18:48.000 Please change this really quickly to something vague so they can't do it anymore.

01:18:51.000 And I'm not even saying at this point, I'm not qualifying either as dishonest.

01:18:56.000 No.

01:18:57.000 What I am saying is, I have no idea why there was one statement and it was changed.

01:19:02.000 This is not me just pulling a Jesse Ventura asking questions just trying to insinuate that there's a conspiracy.

01:19:07.000 I actually want these answers and these are answers that only the World Health Organization, that only the CDC, that only people like Fauci can give us.

01:19:14.000 You're on the grid.

01:19:15.000 Yes.

01:19:16.000 I'm not off the grid.

01:19:17.000 I'm off the grid because I have about half an acre outside of St.

01:19:21.000 Paul where I have a block filter to avoid fluoride in the tap.

01:19:26.000 Half an acre.

01:19:26.000 I'm off the grid on my new television show on Discovery.

01:19:31.000 You realize you can be more on the grid.

01:19:35.000 I was a Navy SEAL. 0.98

01:19:37.000 It was an underwater demolition unit, but it's the same damn thing. 0.97

01:19:42.000 I hunted the Predator. 0.99

01:19:45.000 Listen, you know that I'm a real I'd be an ass-kicker if I still managed to rise to some maticum of fame with my riff-raff hairdo. 0.54

01:19:54.000 They usually don't let folks like us in the door. 0.90

01:19:56.000 I'm just asking questions.

01:19:58.000 All right, we have to get going to talk about things that we can't talk about here, and we're going to play Hipster or Hobo.

01:20:02.000 If you're not a member, sign up for Mug Club.

01:20:05.000 We have another 45 minutes of show, letterofthecredit.com slash mugclub.

01:20:07.000 Tomorrow, Cultural Appropriation Month, California.

01:20:10.000 I think we have Michael Knowles on the show, too, if I'm not mistaken.

01:20:12.000 Is it Brett Weinstein?

01:20:13.000 I don't know.

01:20:14.000 We have some guests coming up.

01:20:18.000 That's just a still of gangrene.

01:20:20.000 It's a forensic image.

01:20:25.000 Send in your costumes.

01:20:26.000 We'll be taking your costumes tomorrow.
