00:00:00.000 Because the way they were doing it here got around that.
00:00:03.000 And he didn't like it.
00:00:04.000 And do you think you want a government shutdown leading into the midterms?
00:00:07.000 Probably not.
00:00:08.000 Do you want to lose control of the House even more?
00:00:10.000 It's already on the table that we'll lose control of the House.
00:00:13.000 So let's not try to make it even worse.
00:00:15.000 And Senate, you're like, okay.
00:00:17.000 That's my problem with it, guys.
00:00:18.000 It's not it.
00:00:19.000 Reality says this is going to have to happen.
00:00:21.000 What Democrat policy is it?
00:00:23.000 Is it LGBTQ in the classroom again? 1.00
00:00:25.000 Now, thank God the Supreme Court said we can opt out.
00:00:27.000 But up until then, he didn't know that.
00:00:29.000 There's a real chance over these next four years to change the culture in a meaningful way that carries on for generations.
00:00:34.000 There really is.
00:00:36.000 And Thomas Massey is putting that on the back burner to stand on principle over the fact that maybe, maybe the deficit will be increased by so like $3 trillion over 10 years.
00:00:46.000 Maybe.
00:00:47.000 And also maybe it won't because maybe the pro-growth policies will outweigh that. 0.95
00:00:52.000 That it's a clown show.
00:00:54.000 And so I completely understand why Trump's doing what he's doing.
00:00:57.000 And before I would have had a problem with it, I don't. 0.60
00:01:00.000 Screw these people.
00:01:01.000 Out of compassion. 0.98
00:01:02.000 All right, we're going to take a few more chats and then leave you guys to your weekend celebrations.
00:01:06.000 Next chat.
00:01:07.000 All right.
00:01:07.000 Next chat from Blakeney 1794.
00:01:10.000 Question.
00:01:11.000 With examples like Vivek, do you think the U.S. needs a class of medics like they had in Athens?
00:01:16.000 These were people who could participate fully economically, but not politically.
00:01:20.000 So listen, this is something, again, that I think is worth having a discussion about.
00:01:24.000 And I don't have a firm opinion that I'm willing to just draw a line in the sand on.
00:01:33.000 And I'll circle back to something I was just thinking of regarding a certain individual.
00:01:39.000 Vivek Ramaswamy is born in the U.S., right?
00:01:42.000 Yeah, I believe his parents were not in the US.
00:01:44.000 His parents were not born in the U.S. So where is your limit?
00:01:47.000 Yeah.
00:01:48.000 How many generations do you have to live here for?
00:01:50.000 Before you can.
00:01:50.000 That's the first question.
00:01:51.000 I mean, we could talk about people who are immigrants.
00:01:53.000 Yeah.
00:01:53.000 But that's a completely different story than Vivek Ramaswamy.
00:01:56.000 Right, but Anne Coulter's point was that I wouldn't vote for you as president of the United States. 0.59
00:02:00.000 And her point was you are not steeped in what we are as a country as much as a multi-generational family is.
00:02:07.000 And that's understandable because you're still getting mom and dad teaching the sons and daughters what it is to be an American without having actually spent a lot of time here to understand what it is to be American.
00:02:19.000 You can argue that, but that was the case that was being made.
00:02:22.000 And there is something.
00:02:22.000 But there's a definition.
00:02:23.000 She has her own definition of what American is.
00:02:25.000 Her definition of what American is is a lot different than the generation of the three generations of people who grew up in Compton.
00:02:31.000 No, she's not saying that those people can't participate at all.
00:02:35.000 She's saying that you just need to be American.
00:02:37.000 You need to have been here for a little while.
00:02:39.000 And I think I don't know how far.
00:02:40.000 I understand her argument.
00:02:42.000 Well, I think it's a reasonable argument, only because you will eventually erode what it is to be an American if you let a lot of people who don't understand what it is to be American control politics.
00:02:52.000 So I get the argument.
00:02:54.000 And this is why I said I don't have like a firm opinion net, like a line in the sand.
00:02:57.000 Like I understand and like, that does make logical sense to me.
00:03:00.000 But then how do we do something with it?
00:03:03.000 Much like the land thing.
00:03:04.000 Like, okay, well, that makes logical sense, but we don't want to do something that is prohibitive.
00:03:08.000 We don't want to do something that's unfair.
00:03:10.000 We want to do something that does preserve what it is to be an American and what this country really is all about.
00:03:15.000 But at the same time, we have to understand that maybe that means that people, I think people who, at the very least, I think we could probably all agree, if you're not born in this country, you can come here.
00:03:24.000 You can do everything you want.
00:03:25.000 You just can't be in elected office.
00:03:27.000 Sorry.
00:03:28.000 It's just, it's just a line for me that I'm like, hey, I'm not discriminating against you because I think you're a bad person.
00:03:33.000 I'm just saying like you haven't been here.
00:03:35.000 You haven't had like this being steeped in this.
00:03:38.000 Like it costs something to have freedom the way that we have it.
00:03:42.000 And it's very easy to go off and elect somebody in New York that's a socialist guy who's unabashedly socialist and his policies could destroy the city.
00:03:50.000 Is that worth having that person in office?
00:03:53.000 Like what if, what if we could just say, yeah, you got to be here a little bit?
00:03:56.000 I mean, you can't be a foreign-born citizen and be president of the United States, right? 0.99
00:04:00.000 So that we do have rules in place already that are kind of like this for a reason.
00:04:05.000 So I think it's practical to say, hey, maybe that's something we should talk about.
00:04:09.000 And I'm not being racist or I'm really not.
00:04:11.000 Like I, there's probably, I think Vivaldi probably do a pretty good job.
00:04:14.000 Vivaldi is racist.
00:04:17.000 Or classist or citizenist.
00:04:18.000 No, I don't think it's an iss at all.
00:04:21.000 I understand your opinion on that.
00:04:22.000 You couldn't put, you couldn't look to someone, a Chinese family that was here building the railroads, you know, hundreds of years ago and say they're not every bit as American as anybody else.
00:04:30.000 You couldn't say that.
00:04:31.000 You can make the argument at a certain point, oh, you've been here for one generation.
00:04:35.000 Your family did not really raise you.
00:04:37.000 Again, it's hard to delineate where that could be.
00:04:40.000 There are different, yeah, because there are different sects.
00:04:41.000 You know, you've got like, you know, maybe it's a Mexican family and you were raised by Mexican, your parents from Mexico.
00:04:48.000 I have my best friend growing up, Mike, his mom's from Mexico.
00:04:50.000 Dad's from America.
00:04:52.000 He was raised as American as can be.
00:04:54.000 His brother's a Marine.
00:04:54.000 His dad's a Marine.
00:04:55.000 As American as can be. 0.57
00:04:57.000 Then you have, you know, maybe a Muslim family that lives in a Sharia neighborhood in Michigan.
00:05:00.000 Yeah.
00:05:01.000 Those are two different people.
00:05:02.000 Very, very different people.
00:05:03.000 And then you start looking at, well, now we have to make that rule based on what culture you are.
00:05:10.000 Because I'm fine with the Mexican one, but I'm not fine with the Muslim one. 1.00
00:05:13.000 And that's when people go, oh, that's a racist policy. 0.93
00:05:15.000 Right. 0.95
00:05:16.000 That's your Nazis. 0.95
00:05:17.000 At a certain point, and I wouldn't even know how to enact this, but it's with the Mamdani thing. 0.99
00:05:25.000 The voter has to make the decision.
00:05:27.000 But realistically, why should someone that practices Islam be able to hold political office in America when the founding tenets of Islam are so antithetical to the founding documents of our country? 1.00
00:05:41.000 There is no overlap in those two belief systems at all.
00:05:45.000 So it's a very scary thing to know that you're left to kind of the, what do you want to call it?
00:05:51.000 I hope we get it right.
00:05:52.000 The mob of the majority in that case.
00:05:55.000 Well, when the majority of that community is basically has that ideology.
00:06:03.000 I don't know.
00:06:04.000 It is a challenge.
00:06:04.000 I don't know the answer to that either, but it's something that we're going to do.
00:06:06.000 You don't want to be authoritarian to stop authoritarianism.
00:06:09.000 Right.
00:06:09.000 But it is a problem.
00:06:10.000 It is a problem that we have to address.
00:06:12.000 So, yeah, I do think that there, like, I think you should have to pass some kind of a, let me put it this way.
00:06:18.000 I think it would be reasonable for you to have to pass some kind of a civics test to be able to vote in elections.
00:06:24.000 I think it's reasonable and to have an argument about it.
00:06:27.000 Maybe there's a reason why it's not reasonable, and that's fine.
00:06:29.000 But I think on its face, it sounds kind of reasonable.
00:06:31.000 I don't want to be, I don't want to make it impossible to vote.
00:06:34.000 I just certainly don't want people to be so easily swayed into voting for something.
00:06:38.000 They have no idea what's going on.
00:06:39.000 That's not how our system was set up.
00:06:41.000 And it's about time we've had some conversations on this because a lot of these cracks are appearing.
00:06:46.000 And look, it's a robust system.
00:06:48.000 You're absolutely right.
00:06:50.000 But don't act like we haven't course corrected before because we have and it's been very helpful.
00:06:54.000 And can I really touch real quick?
00:06:56.000 I'm sorry, I feel really passionate about this because there's going to be a lot of people that take this as some sort of ethno-nationalist argument that America is for white people.
00:07:03.000 It's not that.
00:07:04.000 No, not at all.
00:07:05.000 It's really not.
00:07:06.000 Now, where you see kind of the overlap is that a lot of these people coming from other cultures that happen to look different and happen to have different nationalities just don't prescribe to our culture and they're not going to. 0.98
00:07:14.000 I don't want a Frenchman or an Englishman or a German or even a Polan. 1.00
00:07:19.000 I don't want anybody to be able to come over here who hasn't been steeped in our culture to then do this.
00:07:23.000 But there is the likelihood that someone coming from Europe is more easily able to understand our culture because we have a lot of cultural ties with them.
00:07:30.000 That's not to say a Korean or someone from Mozambique or someone from Brazil can't also be phenomenal.
00:07:36.000 They absolutely can't.
00:07:37.000 Sure.
00:07:37.000 But if you, unless you understand the reality of importing all these people, just ad nauseum from countries that don't share any sort of cultural connection with us, you're going to run into a problem.
00:07:49.000 And pretty soon you're going to run into a country that you no longer recognize as the one people wanted to come to in the first place.
00:07:54.000 Yep.
00:07:55.000 Absolutely.
00:07:56.000 All right.
00:07:56.000 Last chat.
00:07:57.000 All right.
00:07:57.000 Final chat from Claudius Vanderbaugh.
00:08:01.000 What?
00:08:02.000 Question for the crew.
00:08:03.000 Are we ever going to focus on maintaining the house in the midterms, or have we just tacitly accepted that the Dems are going to steal it again?
00:08:10.000 I wouldn't say steal it.
00:08:11.000 Steal it.
00:08:12.000 Maybe the wrong word.
00:08:14.000 Look, Donald Trump is doing his level best right now to give us a lot of wins to run on.
00:08:19.000 And I think he's doing a really good job with it.
00:08:21.000 Right now, we're talking about three Supreme Court cases that essentially went the administration's way in just about every aspect, except, you know, maybe in the birthright citizenship thing, it did not settle the question.
00:08:32.000 It basically kicked it out back to the courts and said, look, you can't broadly apply this just because you had one person file a case.
00:08:39.000 So that good, that reins in the power of the lower courts a little bit.
00:08:42.000 And they need to be smacked down quite hard.
00:08:43.000 These judges that are stepping out of line, and I don't mean just like, oh, it's a ruling I don't like.
00:08:47.000 I'm like, no, these guys are actually flouting, like saying that the Supreme Court doesn't have the, I can't remember what the case was, but there was a judge that basically is going against what the Supreme Court told him to do.
00:08:57.000 I'm like, that guy's gone.
00:08:58.000 That guy's gone.
00:08:58.000 He does not have a job anymore.
00:09:00.000 He's lucky he doesn't end up in jail, but he is absolutely gone.
00:09:03.000 And I do think we will start focusing on that.
00:09:05.000 I think you've seen a huge shift in what people are thinking about right now because a lot of people are race fatigued from 2024.
00:09:16.000 That was an intense period of time from late 2023 all the way through the election in 24 and now into the transition and light speed stuff started coming out.
00:09:25.000 And people will pay attention, but I think they're just a little fatigued with constant races and politics on that sort.
00:09:31.000 Like the wins and stuff like that.
00:09:33.000 Yeah, we can still talk about that.
00:09:34.000 And I think a lot of people are interested.
00:09:36.000 So don't think that we're not focused on that.
00:09:38.000 We will be focused on that.
00:09:39.000 You just kind of have to keep your powder dry a little bit because people's memories are so freaking short.
00:09:44.000 They will not remember when it comes time to go to the ballot box or really close to it a lot of the things that they should.
00:09:50.000 They were ice riots last week.
00:09:52.000 Yes.
00:09:53.000 It seems like forever ago.
00:09:54.000 They're not even talking about them anymore.
00:09:56.000 It's almost like the be able to speak this all up on the street.
00:09:58.000 But they stopped talking about it when they found those 60 kids in Florida.
00:10:02.000 Yeah.
00:10:03.000 Isn't that crazy?
00:10:04.000 That's insane. 0.93
00:10:05.000 You can kill ice. 1.00
00:10:06.000 Fuck ice. 1.00
00:10:07.000 I know. 1.00
00:10:08.000 Oh, the guy should wear masks.
00:10:12.000 Yeah, this is insane.
00:10:13.000 But we will focus on it.
00:10:15.000 It is necessary.
00:10:17.000 And just to finish my point, I don't have an obsession with Dave Smith, I promise.
00:10:22.000 I just tend to comment on a lot of stuff he talks about.
00:10:24.000 You're not convincing me, dude.
00:10:26.000 I know.
00:10:28.000 Much to Lane's chagrin, I think he's smarter and a better dude in general.
00:10:35.000 I just want people to live in reality than we can have.
00:10:38.000 There we go.
00:10:39.000 There we go.
