Transcript

00:00:00.000 Hi, I'm Nicolas Cage.
00:00:15.000 Hey, Nicholas!
00:00:17.000 Or should I say Mr.
00:00:18.000 Cage?
00:00:19.000 Yeah, which do you prefer?
00:00:20.000 You can just call me Nick or Nicholas or Nicky.
00:00:23.000 Okay, well, Nicky.
00:00:25.000 I don't know what to say.
00:00:26.000 You spend too much.
00:00:27.000 It's that simple.
00:00:28.000 Why are you here?
00:00:31.000 Well, we are your accountants, and we actually have to review some purchases with you.
00:00:37.000 Look, we get the cars, the Gulfstream jet, even.
00:00:40.000 But see, like, here, there's this.
00:00:42.000 There's castles.
00:00:43.000 With an S. Yeah, plural.
00:00:45.000 Castles.
00:00:46.000 You're a number cruncher.
00:00:47.000 Just crunch the goddamn numbers.
00:00:49.000 We look like Houdini.
00:00:50.000 Yeah, no one can clean this up.
00:00:52.000 Describe it.
00:00:53.000 I can't remember.
00:00:56.000 I don't know what that means.
00:00:59.000 Okay, um, yachts, cobras, shrunken heads, islands, again, multiple islands.
00:01:08.000 A dinosaur skull?
00:01:09.000 Yep, dinosaur skull.
00:01:11.000 Like...
00:01:12.000 Give me a million dollars?
00:01:14.000 That's not how this works.
00:01:15.000 Do you even know what taxes are, Mr.
00:01:17.000 Cage?
00:01:17.000 I don't think he knows what taxes are.
00:01:18.000 No.
00:01:19.000 Is there anything else that we should know or you want to tell us?
00:01:21.000 I stole the Declaration of Independence.
00:01:24.000 Imagine that.
00:01:27.000 You know what?
00:01:28.000 We're gonna refer you to Tax Network USA because I don't think we can help you and maybe you should look for ways to cut back in the future on spending.
00:01:37.000 I wash my face with three kinds of soap.
00:01:40.000 Each smelling like a different season.
00:01:43.000 And you smell lovely, Mr.
00:01:45.000 Cage, but let's try and stick with one from now on.
00:01:47.000 Yeah, and don't forget, Tax Network USA. Yeah, I think they'll actually be able to take care of you, really from stem to stern.
00:01:54.000 They're experts and much more capable in this scenario of handling your needs, plural.
00:02:02.000 Here.
00:02:04.000 He's not, though, uh, I don't know what to do with that.
00:02:07.000 Uh, Doris, uh, could you send in the bees?
00:02:15.000 No, not the bees!
00:02:17.000 Not the bees!
00:02:19.000 Don't let the IRS take advantage of you.
00:02:21.000 Contact Tax Network USA for immediate relief and expert guidance.
00:02:25.000 You can call 1-800-245-6000 or visit TNUSA.com slash Crowder.
00:02:31.000 To every citizen who's sick and tired of the parasitic political class in Washington.
00:02:37.000 Donald Trump is a great threat to our democracy.
00:02:39.000 That sucks our country of its blood and treasure.
00:02:42.000 Would you have done something differently than President Biden?
00:02:45.000 There is not a thing that comes to mind.
00:02:47.000 November 5th will be your liberation day.
00:02:51.000 November 5th, this year, will be the most important day in the history of our country.
00:02:58.000 Because we're not going to have a country anymore if we don't win.
00:03:01.000 We had 17 million people who watched the election stream in 2020.
00:03:05.000 You were here with us.
00:03:06.000 Between now and election, it's a sprint.
00:03:08.000 Not just for a national election, it's a sprint for the spirit of this country and your ability to choose what you watch, who you support, and the mere ability to speak.
00:03:20.000 There's no guarantee to free speech.
00:03:22.000 You can't just spew disinformation.
00:03:24.000 With the swipe of my pen, I've charged you with a crime.
00:03:27.000 The left is constantly engaged in foul play, but their first choice would be to not have to cheat, right?
00:03:34.000 To do it with lies by omission, by using media bias, by throttling searches, right?
00:03:39.000 By flat-out censoring searches, as we've seen from Google and YouTube, as we've seen with Facebook and Meta in the past.
00:03:44.000 There is no scenario where we approve a platform that has Steven Crowder, Alex Jones, or the like.
00:03:52.000 It's lie, lie, lie, cheat.
00:03:55.000 We all know who Donald Trump is.
00:03:57.000 He will be a dictator on day one.
00:03:58.000 Dictator.
00:03:59.000 Nazi imagery.
00:04:00.000 Adolf Hitler.
00:04:01.000 Hitler.
00:04:01.000 Hitler.
00:04:04.000 As I was saying...
00:04:10.000 But when they don't work, they do have some Hail Marys that involve blatant cheating.
00:04:15.000 They rigged an election.
00:04:16.000 They rigged it like they've never rigged an election before.
00:04:19.000 We're in that last lie phase.
00:04:21.000 He's the essence of threat to our democracy.
00:04:24.000 I took a bullet for democracy.
00:04:26.000 Project 2025.
00:04:27.000 20-25.
00:04:30.000 Project 2025.
00:04:31.000 Project 2025.
00:04:33.000 I don't know anything about it.
00:04:34.000 On January 6th, you told your supporters to march to the Capitol.
00:04:37.000 And all hell was unleashed.
00:04:39.000 Peacefully and patriotically.
00:04:42.000 Make your voices heard.
00:04:43.000 The poly markets trend.
00:04:45.000 14 points.
00:04:46.000 Wow.
00:04:47.000 The good news is progress is being made.
00:04:49.000 The bad news is that our DOJ doesn't want it to happen.
00:04:53.000 I think what you are seeing is them trying to make sure that they can keep this lie alive.
00:04:57.000 That's when you can expect some kind of cheating.
00:05:02.000 And that's why we are gearing up for the election livestream of the century.
00:05:05.000 November 5th, we will have the live electoral integrity map.
00:05:07.000 No one will have the data.
00:05:09.000 No one will have the ability that we have on that night to call, dispute states, and let you know everything that is going on across this country.
00:05:16.000 If there is any foul play whatsoever, huge undertaking.
00:05:19.000 If you want to see that, you want to be here with us, there's no reason to tune in anywhere else that night.
00:05:23.000 The election livestream of the century.
00:05:26.000 Imagine dominoes falling in every state with corruption.
00:05:32.000 November 5th, this year, will be the most important day in the history of our country.
00:05:38.000 And we will make America great again.
00:05:45.000 The election livestream of the century, November 5th, 2024.
00:05:48.000 Be there with us.
00:05:49.000 fight like hell.
00:05:50.000 *music*
00:06:18.000 Good morning, good morning.
00:06:28.000 No sip for you.
00:06:30.000 The other guy does the sip thing.
00:06:31.000 And by the other guy, I mean Stephen Crowder, who will be back in this chair tomorrow.
00:06:36.000 Actually, right now, he is preparing to dive on the Titanic.
00:06:40.000 He bought Ocean Gate and thinks he can turn it around.
00:06:42.000 So we will keep you guys posted on his attempt.
00:06:46.000 Better be recording that.
00:06:48.000 Yeah, he's made some improvements.
00:06:52.000 Okay, good.
00:06:52.000 Necessary.
00:06:53.000 Made it waterproof.
00:06:54.000 He's using a PlayStation controller now.
00:06:56.000 Oh!
00:06:57.000 That is proprietary information, sir, and you should not be giving it out, but we have a fantastic show for you today.
00:07:02.000 Let's hit him with the rundown.
00:07:03.000 Tim, tool man.
00:07:05.000 Ben Stiller, you know, famous for saying, you know, don't never go full.
00:07:08.000 He did.
00:07:09.000 He did.
00:07:09.000 Yeah, and we'll talk to you about that.
00:07:11.000 It's one of the cringiest things that you'll see.
00:07:12.000 This man is needing to blink if he needs help from somebody because his apparent 22-year-old daughter is controlling him.
00:07:18.000 We're going to talk about Donald Trump and faith.
00:07:21.000 If Christians voted, this election would be a walk-off.
00:07:23.000 What are you guys doing?
00:07:24.000 And then Kamala is a neocon.
00:07:28.000 She's basically going to screw up foreign policy around the world with how she's thinking right now and aligning herself with interesting bedfellows.
00:07:36.000 Liz Cheney and Dick Cheney apparently is a fan and she's a fan of him now.
00:07:41.000 It's like Trump getting support from Tipper Gore.
00:07:45.000 Yeah.
00:07:45.000 I feel like we're in the upside down, and things just don't make any sense at all right now.
00:07:50.000 That's stupid.
00:07:51.000 It does not make any sense.
00:07:52.000 And we're going to talk to you in Mug Club about the history of Halloween and my hatred for all really demonic movies out there.
00:08:00.000 Listen, I understand a lot of you like them.
00:08:02.000 I get it.
00:08:02.000 I don't.
00:08:03.000 I have some reasons for it because I was traumatized as a child by watching too many scary movies at too young of an age at night and having to walk home in the darks.
00:08:12.000 So that was a really scary time for me.
00:08:14.000 And I've never fully recovered from that moment.
00:08:17.000 But if at any point today, Josh or probably, you know, the brain says something bad, you might see this.
00:08:26.000 Do us a favor, head on over to Rumble.
00:08:27.000 I don't know why you're on YouTube anyway.
00:08:29.000 It's a live show weekdays, 10 a.m.
00:08:31.000 Eastern time.
00:08:32.000 And here is my question.
00:08:34.000 What are you dressing up as for Halloween?
00:08:37.000 And if you're over 30...
00:08:40.000 Do you have any self-respect?
00:08:42.000 No.
00:08:43.000 Just kidding.
00:08:44.000 I'm dressing up.
00:08:45.000 No, we dress up as...
00:08:47.000 I'm doing a family costume.
00:08:48.000 Yeah, we do the family costume.
00:08:48.000 I think that's cute.
00:08:49.000 You do like a matching family thing.
00:08:50.000 What are you guys gonna do?
00:08:51.000 Do you know?
00:08:51.000 Yeah, me and my daughter, we're going to go as Woody Allen and his wife.
00:08:54.000 Oh, really?
00:08:55.000 No.
00:08:59.000 All in.
00:09:00.000 Josh came to play today.
00:09:02.000 Pretty scary Halloween, I think.
00:09:04.000 That's spooky.
00:09:06.000 She's even doing Asian eyes.
00:09:07.000 It's fun.
00:09:09.000 That's very nice.
00:09:12.000 With that, when you hear this...
00:09:15.000 You know him, you love him.
00:09:17.000 Josh Firestein, October 26th at Bricktown Comedy Club in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
00:09:21.000 That is coming up, what?
00:09:22.000 This Saturday.
00:09:23.000 This Saturday?
00:09:24.000 This Saturday.
00:09:25.000 I'll tell that joke on stage, so sorry about that.
00:09:26.000 I have other Halloween jokes, too.
00:09:28.000 Do you?
00:09:28.000 I just got louder.
00:09:29.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:09:29.000 Well, don't say all of them now.
00:09:30.000 That was hilarious.
00:09:31.000 Oh, let's do a hot 30 right now.
00:09:32.000 Okay.
00:09:33.000 You shouldn't have followed up that joke with that music selection just saying.
00:09:37.000 I know.
00:09:38.000 Did you say a hot 30 or a hot 13?
00:09:41.000 Oh, come on.
00:09:42.000 13 going on 30, actually.
00:09:45.000 This has gotten off to a great start.
00:09:49.000 And when you hear this...
00:09:52.000 One of the best games of all time.
00:09:54.000 Lane the Brain.
00:09:55.000 How are you, sir?
00:09:56.000 Not Mortal Kombat, but it's okay.
00:09:58.000 Dude, it's better than Mortal Kombat.
00:09:59.000 It is absolutely definitively...
00:10:02.000 Chat, let us know.
00:10:03.000 Mortal Kombat or this thing.
00:10:06.000 The very best game.
00:10:08.000 Street Fighter 2.
00:10:08.000 I'm going to go with Mortal Kombat.
00:10:10.000 I'm just going to also let you know I'm going to be sitting out the foreign policy discussion today.
00:10:14.000 Oh, good.
00:10:15.000 Why?
00:10:15.000 Well, in unrelated news, I got a sponsorship deal with Halliburton.
00:10:18.000 Oh!
00:10:19.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:10:20.000 That's it.
00:10:21.000 Well, congratulations.
00:10:22.000 So your views have evolved?
00:10:24.000 They've changed, yeah.
00:10:25.000 I've really rethought where I stand on the issues.
00:10:26.000 Just got off the phone with Liz Cheney, and all of a sudden, you're on board.
00:10:29.000 I guess that's his two-week notice.
00:10:32.000 No, no, what happens here is you just get fired.
00:10:35.000 All right, well, look, I want to jump into this with Ben Stiller, because...
00:10:41.000 I mean, I... Ben Stiller's a funny guy.
00:10:44.000 He's done some funny movies.
00:10:45.000 There's some iconic moments and iconic movies.
00:10:47.000 Some of them I like, some of them I don't like, whatever.
00:10:49.000 It's not really even about that.
00:10:51.000 It's that this man looks like he's like somebody off camera has his dog if he has one and a gun to the dog's head if Ben doesn't say what he's supposed to say here.
00:11:00.000 So it's Ben Stiller, Doug Emhoff, and some other gay guy.
00:11:03.000 He's gay, literally.
00:11:04.000 It's just Andy Cohen.
00:11:06.000 Who went full beta and declared their support for Kamala in the name of feminism.
00:11:11.000 All the dads out there, I would say this is the time to really show your support for your daughters.
00:11:16.000 What do I love about being a girl dad?
00:11:18.000 I love how much smarter she is than all the guys in the world.
00:11:21.000 Who the f*** is that guy?
00:11:22.000 I can tell that she's going to be a powerhouse.
00:11:25.000 She is already.
00:11:25.000 That's like Anderson Pooper.
00:11:27.000 Is it a two and a half year old powerhouse?
00:11:28.000 22 and a half is a feminist.
00:11:31.000 Incredibly strong and has really...
00:11:35.000 He's been blackmailed.
00:11:36.000 I'm the proud dad of Ella over here.
00:11:40.000 My vote for Kamala is an investment in my daughter's future.
00:11:45.000 I agree, I'm right there with you.
00:11:46.000 When the Dobbs decision came out two plus years ago, I heard from Kamala right away and then the next person was Ella.
00:11:53.000 She texted me right away, essentially saying we need to fight.
00:11:57.000 This is not just an issue for women, this is an issue for men and families.
00:12:02.000 But you're not a man.
00:12:04.000 Never in my lifetime did I think that we would be having to fight for this and the fight for our own bodies and I think it's really important for the men to step up and show that they actually support us and they're willing to put things on the line to help us.
00:12:20.000 Why?
00:12:22.000 Isn't feminism all about being strong and kind of doing it on your own?
00:12:25.000 Why now are you like, hey, we really need the guys to step up and really show up for us now?
00:12:30.000 Because she just stopped taking testosterone.
00:12:30.000 Why?
00:12:32.000 Listen, is that real?
00:12:34.000 Is she something?
00:12:35.000 It looks like she was a thing.
00:12:37.000 You were messing with me earlier.
00:12:38.000 See how I said yesterday?
00:12:40.000 I say I do bits with you guys all the time.
00:12:41.000 That was a bit.
00:12:42.000 I can promise you the Dobbs decision will have no effect on L.A. M. Hoffman.
00:12:42.000 I gotcha.
00:12:46.000 Yeah.
00:12:47.000 If we...
00:12:50.000 That's okay.
00:12:54.000 Yes, so why does she care so much about it?
00:12:56.000 Listen, I'm sorry.
00:12:58.000 I am happy to have men stand in the gap on big issues and help and contribute.
00:13:04.000 That's fantastic.
00:13:05.000 That's kind of part and parcel.
00:13:06.000 But your entire thing is built on not needing men.
00:13:10.000 Your entire platform is built on rugged independence of women.
00:13:14.000 Women can do it themselves.
00:13:16.000 Now it's important for men to step up.
00:13:18.000 And by the way, those aren't men.
00:13:20.000 Those may be good fathers.
00:13:22.000 They may be good guys.
00:13:24.000 I'm not assassinating their character here, necessarily.
00:13:28.000 What I'm saying is...
00:13:29.000 Those aren't men.
00:13:30.000 That's not what you think of when you think of men.
00:13:32.000 When you're describing your two-and-a-half-year-old and saying she's smarter than all the guys in the room, it's a two-and-a-half-year-old, dude.
00:13:39.000 Things move around a little bit.
00:13:40.000 Stop it with the feminism on a two-and-a-half-year-old that you and your gay lover are now surrogating and raising.
00:13:46.000 He's gay!
00:13:48.000 I don't think he did that naturally, right?
00:13:51.000 He bought a baby.
00:13:51.000 I think.
00:13:53.000 I don't want to cast aspersions.
00:13:55.000 I don't like that.
00:13:56.000 I think he is gay, right?
00:13:57.000 I don't know.
00:13:58.000 I don't know about that.
00:13:59.000 Were you messing with me on that too?
00:14:01.000 It's a bit.
00:14:01.000 He looks gay.
00:14:02.000 I don't know.
00:14:03.000 I don't know.
00:14:07.000 Listen, if he's not gay, he's acting.
00:14:10.000 Chat comment.
00:14:10.000 I don't know.
00:14:11.000 Let us know.
00:14:12.000 Let us know if this guy's gay or not.
00:14:13.000 His comments are indicative of a real big problem, though, that's kind of serious that I never thought about, is you'll tell men will...
00:14:18.000 Everybody will tell little girls that they're perfect and they can do no wrong and you're smarter than all the boys.
00:14:24.000 And the same little boys are sitting over here being like, oh, what the hell did I do wrong?
00:14:28.000 Right.
00:14:28.000 But it's literally everything they do is wrong.
00:14:30.000 And so you wonder why we have this massive divide between the sexes.
00:14:33.000 Probably because you tell little boys they're all idiots and that dude's...
00:14:37.000 Fake baby, that she's awesome.
00:14:39.000 And it doesn't help that the men in power and the men that have things are telling young boys that they shouldn't have it.
00:14:44.000 Right, yeah, exactly.
00:14:46.000 This is everything wrong with her movement, but are you surprised?
00:14:49.000 What is Chad saying?
00:14:49.000 Chad is saying he's gay.
00:14:51.000 Okay, good.
00:14:52.000 Well, not good, but I want to be correct here.
00:14:56.000 And look, yesterday I did...
00:14:58.000 You brought it up, Josh, and so, Tim, we're going to...
00:15:01.000 I want to...
00:15:03.000 I need a little bit of admonishment.
00:15:05.000 Okay.
00:15:07.000 You were quick to that.
00:15:09.000 You did a bit yesterday.
00:15:11.000 And, you know, I didn't support you.
00:15:13.000 What is this?
00:15:14.000 I didn't support you.
00:15:16.000 What are you doing?
00:15:19.000 No, you have to wear a collar, Gerald.
00:15:21.000 I don't.
00:15:22.000 I can support you without a collar.
00:15:26.000 Is this a bit?
00:15:27.000 I don't think so.
00:15:29.000 I think that I have to kiss him now.
00:15:33.000 You're welcome to try, Josh.
00:15:36.000 I should have said that.
00:15:37.000 Don't we get the views up?
00:15:38.000 That would be a good bit.
00:15:39.000 Josh, I was wrong.
00:15:40.000 Okay.
00:15:41.000 And I'm sorry.
00:15:42.000 Okay, well, yes.
00:15:43.000 I appreciate that.
00:15:44.000 Thank you.
00:15:45.000 Yeah.
00:15:45.000 Well, now Gerald looks very fancy.
00:15:48.000 Yes.
00:15:48.000 I don't really know where to go from here with this.
00:15:51.000 You look like Ella Imhoff.
00:15:53.000 Yeah.
00:15:53.000 I know.
00:15:57.000 There we go.
00:15:58.000 Right there.
00:15:59.000 No, it's not like ties just...
00:16:00.000 That's getting in the way of your shirt.
00:16:02.000 You gotta get that out of here.
00:16:04.000 Josh, I love you.
00:16:05.000 And your tie bit was hilarious.
00:16:06.000 And I didn't support you in that.
00:16:07.000 And now I feel better.
00:16:10.000 And a little self-righteous.
00:16:11.000 So, if you want to support Crowder, you know, the show.
00:16:15.000 You want to support Trump.
00:16:16.000 You want to live in style.
00:16:18.000 Don't wear a tie.
00:16:19.000 I thought you were going to plug ties.
00:16:23.000 We have a new sponsor here.
00:16:25.000 You're going to love your ties.
00:16:28.000 My ties!
00:16:29.000 My ties, yeah.
00:16:32.000 I love it.
00:16:33.000 I do like my ties.
00:16:34.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:16:35.000 That's exactly what we should be doing.
00:16:36.000 So go to CrowderShop.com, grab a shirt.
00:16:38.000 I love Tim's.
00:16:39.000 Tim's is one of my favorite right now.
00:16:40.000 So the Trump Vance 24.
00:16:42.000 This is my favorite shirt by far.
00:16:42.000 One of our favorite shirts.
00:16:43.000 Make sure you're wearing these things out there.
00:16:45.000 Again, it's like waving a flag.
00:16:47.000 It's a team jersey, essentially, that everybody else can see.
00:16:50.000 Or a hat.
00:16:50.000 Like Josh has right there.
00:16:51.000 Yeah, this is a sick hat, dude.
00:16:53.000 Yep.
00:16:53.000 Proudershop.com, we have a lot of great stuff out there.
00:16:55.000 I think there's one that's a strange animal on it, too.
00:16:57.000 I love that one.
00:16:57.000 I like strange animal a lot.
00:16:59.000 There's certain times where I want to have something in your face, right?
00:17:02.000 You want to start a conversation?
00:17:04.000 Wear Trump Vance 24.
00:17:05.000 That starts a conversation.
00:17:06.000 That's kind of a more in-your-face kind of shirt, right?
00:17:08.000 There's other times where I'm like, if I want to start a conversation about religion, I wear Jesus is Risen, and I walk around, I guarantee you people will talk to you about it and be like, I like the shirt, or they'll say something, and it starts conversation.
00:17:19.000 It's just like a team jersey.
00:17:21.000 It's fantastic.
00:17:22.000 Do it.
00:17:23.000 Crowdashop.com.
00:17:24.000 You gotta get a shirt that gets conversation going.
00:17:26.000 That's why I wear a shirt that says, why are you looking at me, stupid idiot?
00:17:31.000 Oh.
00:17:31.000 I wear that at the airport.
00:17:34.000 It's just because you want to be frisked vigorously by TSA. I always do.
00:17:38.000 It always works, too.
00:17:40.000 I'm the bomb.
00:17:41.000 Probably not the best shirt to be wearing on a flight, Josh.
00:17:44.000 Okay?
00:17:44.000 I'm just saying.
00:17:45.000 I wouldn't do that.
00:17:48.000 We're going to get into a lot about Kamala Harris, foreign policy, the election, everything that's going on right now, and make sure that you guys are up to date on that.
00:17:55.000 But before we do, let's check in on the polls right now with the Polymarket Check-In.
00:17:59.000 There's only two weeks until election.
00:18:01.000 It is absolutely coming up fast, so let's look at the latest election odds.
00:18:08.000 I'm not sure what it sounds like.
00:18:09.000 Oh, 63.7.
00:18:11.000 27.5 points spread.
00:18:13.000 Good lord!
00:18:15.000 Wait, what?
00:18:15.000 It's 27.5 points.
00:18:17.000 That is insane.
00:18:20.000 Every time we talk about this, I make the analogy to football, but every time it gets more and more of a stretch, if you round up, that's four touchdowns, Gerald!
00:18:27.000 It's a four-touchdown lead, basically.
00:18:29.000 That's crazy!
00:18:30.000 That's absolutely nuts.
00:18:31.000 Look, can you bring up the swing states?
00:18:34.000 Is there a swing state tab, I think?
00:18:35.000 There is.
00:18:36.000 Is that easy enough?
00:18:37.000 Okay, you can just scroll down to it.
00:18:38.000 Look at that.
00:18:38.000 Swing states.
00:18:39.000 Arizona right now is a walk-off with the odds.
00:18:41.000 Again, this is just one variable, right?
00:18:43.000 Georgia, walk-off.
00:18:44.000 Nevada, walk-off-ish.
00:18:46.000 It's closer.
00:18:47.000 Michigan and Wisconsin are pretty close, so 59 there, 42 and 41, respectively.
00:18:52.000 And then the big one right now that I'm loving is Pennsylvania.
00:18:55.000 Pennsylvania.
00:18:55.000 Look at that.
00:18:56.000 62.38.
00:18:58.000 That's fantastic.
00:19:00.000 Kamala Harris.
00:19:01.000 Wait, wait.
00:19:01.000 Did it go the other way?
00:19:02.000 It says it weird on the bottom down there.
00:19:04.000 Oh, that's the popular vote.
00:19:05.000 Sorry, sorry.
00:19:05.000 That's popular.
00:19:06.000 I thought that was Pennsylvania.
00:19:07.000 I was like, what?
00:19:07.000 It's the same numbers, but it's different.
00:19:09.000 Yeah, 62.38.
00:19:10.000 Again, this is not everything, but really, really interesting to check in on this and see how this continues to go.
00:19:16.000 What I will...
00:19:21.000 Go ahead.
00:19:21.000 An important note about that, and I don't want people to get discouraged, I would say probably the closer we get there's going to be a lot of money dumped on Kamala.
00:19:27.000 It'll be tightening.
00:19:28.000 It'll tighten a lot because why wouldn't you put a lot of money on someone when you have a chance to make more?
00:19:33.000 Yeah.
00:19:33.000 Definitely.
00:19:34.000 I was talking with those guys at Polymarket.
00:19:37.000 You can actually trade your bet as well.
00:19:40.000 So it's almost like a stock option.
00:19:41.000 You're basically buying it, say you buy Trump at 62, and if he wins you get a dollar.
00:19:46.000 So you paid 62 cents, you get a dollar for it, so you make whatever spread is there.
00:19:50.000 But let's say he goes up to 70, and you want to kind of lock in your game.
00:19:53.000 You can sell the 62 to somebody when he's higher than that, and they'll pay kind of some differential for it, too.
00:19:59.000 So you can actually trade the bet, which I didn't know going into it.
00:20:01.000 So it's a really interesting market.
00:20:03.000 It's almost like the stock market with prop bets on every possible imaginable thing here.
00:20:09.000 But look, the odds right now, I know they look really bad for Kamala and her campaign, is we think getting desperate, going into panic mode, and they're really...
00:20:18.000 They've had some big celebrity endorsements in the very beginning, but right now they're really scraping the bottom of the barrel.
00:20:25.000 At it!
00:20:26.000 At it!
00:20:28.000 Howdy, I'm Colonel Slanders, official spokesman.
00:20:31.000 Howdy, I'm Colonel Slanders, official spokesperson of the Democrat Party.
00:20:35.000 You know, I failed 1,009 times before I finally succeeded with my secret blend of herbs and spices.
00:20:41.000 You know who else failed 1,009 times?
00:20:44.000 Vice President Kamala Harris.
00:20:46.000 So why don't y'all go ahead and give her 1,010 chance this November, because she's finger-lickin' good.
00:20:54.000 This ad's paid for by the Colonels for Harris Family Pack Bucket.
00:20:59.000 Oh, it's just a regular pack?
00:21:03.000 No, it's a super pack.
00:21:07.000 Well, they've banned that in 14 states.
00:21:10.000 I'm hungry now.
00:21:14.000 I guess if you want more of that, join Mug Club.
00:21:17.000 $89 annually, $9 a month to go mugless.
00:21:20.000 No, we really do appreciate your support.
00:21:23.000 If you have been watching for a long time and you're making the decision, right now is the best time to join leading into the election.
00:21:27.000 We are spending a lot of money.
00:21:30.000 We are the single source of information on election night.
00:21:33.000 We have our election integrity map.
00:21:35.000 We're going to be able to see shenanigans going on across the country.
00:21:38.000 We have the live data feed that all of the major outlets or most of the major outlets are using to call states.
00:21:45.000 So we'll be able to give you those numbers, give you kind of our predictions, and you will not have to go to mainstream media for any piece of information.
00:21:52.000 We're also...
00:21:53.000 I can't announce all of it yet, but we're...
00:21:55.000 Thank you.
00:22:00.000 Some very, very interesting things coming up here very quickly.
00:22:03.000 And we will have boots on the ground in all of these key states so that when something does happen, not only will it get reported, but we will have people able to verify it, to look into it and see what is going on in these states.
00:22:15.000 And we need your help to make sure that we can do that.
00:22:17.000 So join Mug Club.
00:22:18.000 But also, if you have not signed up for Mug Club Army, do that now.
00:22:20.000 Again, you're not going to get spammed with stuff.
00:22:22.000 This is only giving you the information that you need to help us on election night to make sure that this election doesn't go the way of 2020 with all of the shenanigans that happened and people thinking that there was absolutely a steal in progress.
00:22:35.000 And we just couldn't really do anything about it because we weren't prepared.
00:22:39.000 Won't happen again this time.
00:22:40.000 Make sure you go to mugclubarmy.com and sign up for that.
00:22:43.000 Yeah, go ahead.
00:22:44.000 I just want to say one thing to Mug Club, especially working behind the scenes on everything to prep for election.
00:22:48.000 There's nothing more that networks like CNN and NBC and all of them want to see than for us to fail in what we're trying to do.
00:22:55.000 Yeah, absolutely.
00:22:56.000 Because if we succeed in what we are setting out to do, it will revolutionize the way politics is covered in America, full stop.
00:23:04.000 But this is something we can only do in tandem with the people that support us.
00:23:07.000 We can't do it without you, and we want to do it for you.
00:23:09.000 But this is as much a part of what you are doing for us as what we're doing for you.
00:23:13.000 So just appreciate all the help that we're getting.
00:23:15.000 Yeah, this is a historic night.
00:23:17.000 And look, it's not just like saying, okay, we did it.
00:23:20.000 We want people to never have to go to mainstream media again.
00:23:23.000 Correct.
00:23:24.000 Whether it's us or, you know, if you end up watching, you know, in 2028, you end up watching somebody else who tries to do this and there's 30 people that are doing this with the live data.
00:23:32.000 And, like, fantastic.
00:23:33.000 We have better, secure elections.
00:23:35.000 We can make sure that stuff doesn't happen in darkness like it has, we feel like, in the past.
00:23:40.000 So make sure that you tune in on election night.
00:23:42.000 And that's something, too.
00:23:43.000 You know, I didn't plan on talking about this, but on election night...
00:23:47.000 Obviously, voting is the most important thing that you can do.
00:23:49.000 I think most of the voter registration, unless you have same day or some other rules in states, has gotten kind of winded down a little bit.
00:23:54.000 Scott Pressler basically gets to drink some champagne.
00:23:57.000 He's done a phenomenal job in Pennsylvania, so we'll keep an eye on how that goes.
00:24:01.000 But now it's time to make sure that people actually get out and vote.
00:24:03.000 Registering is one thing.
00:24:04.000 Voting is another thing.
00:24:05.000 And then tell all your friends, November 5th, Tuesday, two weeks from today, make sure they're tuning in here.
00:24:12.000 Tell them to tune in, have a good time, get all the information that they need.
00:24:15.000 Spread the word so that people know about it, maybe that aren't on social media, that aren't people who watch this election coverage.
00:24:21.000 Ask them how they're going to watch the election results and tell them to tune in on November 5th.
00:24:26.000 It's going to be a phenomenal show.
00:24:28.000 We're going to have a ton of different guests on and crossing streams with a bunch of the other big creators out there because this is about a community of people making a change, not just one organization.
00:24:37.000 So we appreciate that.
00:24:39.000 All right.
00:24:40.000 So this one was an interesting segment.
00:24:43.000 The story about Christians not voting was something weird to me, but let me just set this up first with there's one group of people that you probably didn't think of that could actually change the election every single time if only they voted.
00:25:01.000 A troubling announcement this week about Christian voter participation.
00:25:05.000 According to George Barna and Arizona Christian University's Cultural Research Center, only 51 percent of people of faith say they'll vote in the November election.
00:25:16.000 Why are nearly half sitting this one out?
00:25:18.000 Barna says they lack enthusiasm for the presidential candidates and they're not getting direction from their churches.
00:25:27.000 Lacking enthusiasm for the candidates.
00:25:29.000 I understand that.
00:25:30.000 I get it.
00:25:38.000 No matter what you think of Donald Trump, he is definitely a flawed man.
00:25:42.000 I think he would say that.
00:25:43.000 He has made some mistakes.
00:25:44.000 Maybe he wouldn't say that.
00:25:45.000 He'd kind of joke around about it.
00:25:47.000 Other people say it.
00:25:48.000 Oh, come on.
00:25:48.000 Other people say it.
00:25:49.000 Made mistakes.
00:25:50.000 I'm not sure.
00:25:51.000 But he seems to have a little bit different take on faith after what happened to him in July with the assassination attempt.
00:26:02.000 I now recognize that it's been the hand of God leading me to where I am today.
00:26:09.000 And my faith took on new meaning on July 13th in Butler, Pennsylvania, where I was knocked to the ground, essentially, by what seemed like a supernatural hand.
00:26:26.000 And I would like to think that God saved me for a purpose, and that's to make our country greater than ever before.
00:26:35.000 I imagine being shot at is going to give you a bit of a moment of pause, a moment of reflection to see maybe what direction your life is heading in.
00:26:43.000 Maybe that's one of those times where you're like, okay, let's take stock of where everything is here, because that's a defining moment in anybody's life, no matter what you've been through.
00:26:49.000 Being shot at is a big deal.
00:26:52.000 And obviously Trump has a message for the church that he has been speaking for years.
00:26:58.000 It's not like the first time that he's gone and spoken to a group of Christians.
00:27:01.000 He's gone to churches, the prayer breakfasts.
00:27:02.000 He's gone to a lot of different things throughout his career.
00:27:05.000 And also, I mean, Kamala tried to step foot into a Catholic church, and it went, well, kind of like you would expect.
00:27:10.000 Shut up, bitch!
00:27:16.000 Oh my god.
00:27:17.000 Whoa!
00:27:18.000 I hadn't seen that one.
00:27:20.000 What happened?
00:27:22.000 Nice job.
00:27:25.000 That's aggressive.
00:27:26.000 I hope there weren't any kids watching.
00:27:28.000 Don't eat the biscuits.
00:27:30.000 Wow.
00:27:32.000 Sorry.
00:27:33.000 Oh, hot, hot, hot, hot.
00:27:37.000 Don't worry, it's all...
00:27:38.000 This girl is on fire.
00:27:40.000 Oh, come on.
00:27:43.000 A couple Hail Marys should be just fine.
00:27:45.000 New study that came out, it actually revealed a lot of apathy among millions.
00:27:50.000 And I was surprised by this number, Lane, you were surprised by this number.
00:27:54.000 Millions of Christians regarding the election.
00:27:56.000 So according to the study, 73 million Christians won't vote in November.
00:28:02.000 And when I first heard that, I thought, like, come on, that's got to be like people who just identify as Christian and it's too broad of a category.
00:28:08.000 Well, 32 million of them are self-identified Christians who regularly attend service.
00:28:13.000 I don't know what regularly means, but it's different than, you know, like a C&E Christian, a Christmas and Easter person who comes to church twice a year, right?
00:28:22.000 It's somebody who tends regularly and that's 32 million people.
00:28:28.000 14 million evangelical Christians who regularly attend church services.
00:28:32.000 So these are big, big, big numbers.
00:28:36.000 Evangelicals, by the way, who voted in 2020, they voted overwhelmingly for Donald Trump.
00:28:41.000 80% of white evangelicals versus overall, there's 48% of whites that voted for Donald Trump, right?
00:28:47.000 So He obviously does very, very well among white evangelicals.
00:28:50.000 64% of Asian evangelicals overall, only 26% of Asians voted for Donald Trump.
00:28:56.000 So again, he does very well there.
00:28:57.000 57% of Hispanic evangelicals overall with Hispanics, it's 36%.
00:29:02.000 So 53% of whites, Asians, and Hispanic practicing Christians voted for Trump in 2020.
00:29:10.000 Those are shocking numbers.
00:29:12.000 Donald Trump does phenomenally well with this group, and they're not getting out to vote because of apathy, and maybe because there's no direction from the church.
00:29:23.000 And this brings up kind of a really interesting point for me.
00:29:26.000 Because there's this fight in the church over this 501c3 status, right?
00:29:30.000 This tax-exempt status that the church enjoys.
00:29:33.000 And a lot of people have said that that needs to be revoked on the left because they don't like the fact that churches have tax-exempt status.
00:29:41.000 And maybe it's because there are some pastors out there that I vehemently disagree with that are, you know, living lavish lifestyles and there's, you know, million dollar, tens of millions of dollars being spent in ways that they don't agree with and private jets and estates and all kinds of stuff.
00:29:55.000 Money in the walls.
00:29:55.000 Yeah, money in the walls.
00:29:56.000 You know, when you put money in the walls, that's kind of like a different level of wealth, you know, because there's insulation.
00:30:03.000 Doesn't it make it bulletproof, too?
00:30:05.000 It doesn't make it bulletproof.
00:30:07.000 Money may slow it down.
00:30:08.000 Well, if you put enough money...
00:30:09.000 Yeah, well, not everybody has that kind of money, Tim.
00:30:11.000 Well, the guy who puts him in walls does.
00:30:14.000 That's Pablo Escobar kind of money right there.
00:30:16.000 Yeah, that is Pablo.
00:30:17.000 Joel Osteen or Pablo Escobar?
00:30:18.000 One of the two.
00:30:19.000 One of the two.
00:30:20.000 Pick your favorite, you know...
00:30:20.000 Is there a difference?
00:30:21.000 We should be saying that.
00:30:22.000 Oh, I'm going to be Osteen rich.
00:30:24.000 Yeah.
00:30:26.000 Rappers need to get on this.
00:30:27.000 I don't know how to do that.
00:30:30.000 What kind of churches are these?
00:30:32.000 Are these non-denominational?
00:30:34.000 Typically the ones that have that kind of...
00:30:36.000 When you see claims being made, and look, I know that there are some false claims being made, but there are some legitimate grievances that people from the outside looking in can go, hold on.
00:30:46.000 Like, you're preaching a message of, you know, all of this.
00:30:49.000 And it's not that we don't want you to be well taken care of and have, you know, a decent home and, you know, like all of that stuff.
00:30:54.000 You don't have to take a vow of poverty to be a Christian.
00:30:57.000 But at the same time, maybe money and walls is a bit of a thing.
00:31:00.000 And that's usually non-denominational churches are the places that you find that going on.
00:31:04.000 But you can see it in maybe some other denominations.
00:31:06.000 They call them televangelists.
00:31:07.000 That's still a thing.
00:31:07.000 Is that a thing?
00:31:08.000 There's also much smaller churches doing much dirtier laundering.
00:31:13.000 Yeah.
00:31:14.000 My dad's a police officer in Vegas.
00:31:15.000 He was telling me about there's this one neighborhood in Vegas where they have the highest concentration of churches in one square mile or whatever it is, whatever the distance is.
00:31:22.000 Is that where people get married?
00:31:24.000 No, some of them are churches, but not all because it's part of the strip and then another part of it's not part of the strip.
00:31:24.000 In Vegas?
00:31:30.000 I don't know the radius of this square that he was talking about, but yeah, they're all like little churches on the corners that don't have services.
00:31:38.000 But they're churches and they enjoy tax-exempts.
00:31:40.000 Are they pretty much the donut shop of Central Texas?
00:31:43.000 Maybe that's true.
00:31:45.000 It's where the gamblers go to not pay taxes.
00:31:49.000 They literally just play mahjong in the basements of those churches all day.
00:31:52.000 But it's for a good cause.
00:31:52.000 It happens.
00:31:54.000 Churches like that should go away, obviously.
00:31:56.000 If you're gaming the system, fine.
00:31:59.000 But people really went after that tax-exempt status because they didn't like the fact that these churches had the ability to speak on...
00:32:07.000 Topics that maybe could influence an election.
00:32:10.000 And it's really interesting to me that you want...
00:32:11.000 It's like, no, no, no, no.
00:32:12.000 They're not saying go vote for this candidate.
00:32:14.000 But the message that they have is driving people in a direction that I don't like.
00:32:18.000 Well, yes, it drives them away from a policy of, you know, killing unborn children towards life.
00:32:22.000 And you don't necessarily like that.
00:32:24.000 But here's the thing.
00:32:24.000 I get it.
00:32:25.000 Trump potentially could have 9.4 million more votes from evangelicals.
00:32:31.000 16.6 more votes for Trump from practicing Christians if these people turned out.
00:32:37.000 That's insane.
00:32:38.000 In 2020, shift 43,000 votes in three swing states, and we would be basically coming to the end of a second term for Donald Trump.
00:32:45.000 Arizona, the margin was 10,457.
00:32:48.000 Georgia, 11,779.
00:32:50.000 Wisconsin, 20,682.
00:32:54.000 That's way more votes than we need.
00:32:58.000 That's one Joel Osteen service.
00:32:59.000 That's...
00:33:02.000 So wear Trump merch to your service, to your church.
00:33:06.000 That's why I wore a Trump shirt to church last weekend.
00:33:10.000 It got a lot of comments.
00:33:11.000 It will, because there's a lot of people in church that, I mean, I know I have people who at my church are fans of this show and listen to this show and love you guys, appreciate all that you guys do, but it's one of those things, it's not an off-limits topic.
00:33:25.000 You're supposed to be involved in what's going on.
00:33:27.000 You're supposed to be in the world and not of it.
00:33:29.000 That doesn't mean be kind of in the world off to yourself and not of it.
00:33:33.000 That means be a part of it.
00:33:34.000 Like, participate in this.
00:33:36.000 The top reasons that they gave, by the way, for not voting?
00:33:38.000 Lack of interest in politics.
00:33:41.000 68%.
00:33:41.000 Listen very clearly when I say this.
00:33:44.000 The two most important decisions you are going to make in your life.
00:33:47.000 Number one, who are you going to serve?
00:33:51.000 Christ or yourself?
00:33:52.000 God or yourself?
00:33:53.000 That is the most important decision.
00:33:55.000 Even if you don't believe in God, because then it takes out a whole bunch of time spent thinking about a question that doesn't exist for you, right?
00:34:01.000 If you do believe that there is a God, am I going to serve this God, that God?
00:34:06.000 What God are you going to choose?
00:34:07.000 That's the most important decision you can make in your life.
00:34:09.000 The second most important decision is who is going to rule me?
00:34:13.000 What government am I going to live under?
00:34:15.000 What country am I going to live in?
00:34:16.000 The second most important decision.
00:34:18.000 And here you have the opportunity, thank God, to be able to participate in selecting the people that will represent you.
00:34:24.000 And ultimately, you will end up working with.
00:34:26.000 Now, in our society, we don't necessarily look at the government as somebody lording their power over us.
00:34:31.000 They represent our desires and our will.
00:34:33.000 And if they don't, we get rid of them and bring somebody else in.
00:34:36.000 But who's going to rule you?
00:34:37.000 Is a very, very, very big question.
00:34:41.000 Lack of interest can't make 68% of you Christians sit on the sidelines, guys.
00:34:45.000 It's a very important deal.
00:34:48.000 It would be better, like, if you want to see God's work carried out in the world, isn't it great to have a government that's God-fearing?
00:34:56.000 How are you going to have a government that's God-fearing if all of the Christians stay home and don't go vote their principles?
00:35:02.000 It's not going to happen in a primary or in the general election.
00:35:05.000 The other top reasons, disliking the candidates, 57%.
00:35:09.000 I understand that.
00:35:10.000 You're not picking somebody to be the messiah.
00:35:12.000 You're picking somebody to be the leader of this country based on the options that are available to you.
00:35:17.000 Sometimes that means you have to pick the better option, even though you may not like Either option.
00:35:23.000 And there's a very clear difference between the candidates right now, and churches should be talking more about this.
00:35:28.000 The other thing that kind of relates to that, neither candidate reflected the most important views.
00:35:32.000 55% of people said that.
00:35:34.000 I get it.
00:35:36.000 Do you want more freedom?
00:35:38.000 Do you want the freedom to have church?
00:35:41.000 Do you want the freedom to make sure that you can protect yourself?
00:35:45.000 Do you want the freedom to make sure that babies are protected at the eighth and ninth month?
00:35:53.000 Do you want the freedom to make sure that you can go out and earn a living and speak your mind in public?
00:35:59.000 There's one side that is for more of that, and there's one side that is for less of that.
00:36:04.000 Don't make this too complicated.
00:36:05.000 It's a very simple process.
00:36:08.000 And pastors need to do a very, very good job at getting their congregations out to vote.
00:36:14.000 And they have to tell them, like, look...
00:36:17.000 Don't go vote because you think this person is going to be better just for you and your limited needs.
00:36:23.000 Think about it with a kingdom mindset.
00:36:25.000 Look at scripture and see what scripture says.
00:36:27.000 Is Donald Trump going to be the guy that is looked at in scripture as the person that we need to emulate?
00:36:32.000 No, of course not.
00:36:33.000 That's not what we're talking about.
00:36:35.000 Is Kamala Harris?
00:36:36.000 No, of course not.
00:36:37.000 Again, not what we're talking about.
00:36:38.000 But they're policies.
00:36:39.000 You can judge a tree by its fruit.
00:36:41.000 Look what happened under Donald Trump.
00:36:43.000 Look what's happened under Kamala Harris.
00:36:46.000 Do you think we should continue going that way, or do you think we should go a different direction?
00:36:49.000 Most Christians that turn out to vote overwhelmingly support Donald Trump.
00:36:53.000 We need pastors to do a better job of getting people out.
00:36:56.000 Yeah, I think when he goes to the argument between candidates, abortion comes up a lot for Christians.
00:37:00.000 Like, how could you vote for X candidate?
00:37:02.000 It's true, but I think even more on a...
00:37:09.000 is more writ large of both parties and i think that was reflected the most in covid um one is about control and one is about you know sort of laissez-faire live and let live you know religious freedom whatever freedom but religious freedom specifically and yes trump was in charge and thank god for federalism but if you look at the states that were ran by democrat government governments how long did they shut down church Much more authoritarian.
00:37:32.000 Much more authoritarian.
00:37:33.000 And look at the countries where that has taken extreme footholds.
00:37:36.000 I know China's an extreme example, but you cannot freely practice your religion there at all.
00:37:41.000 Even though it will be the largest Christian nation in terms of population very shortly, they're still forced to practice underground and persecuted for doing so.
00:37:48.000 Don't even mention the Middle East.
00:37:50.000 The point is, one of these parties trends away from that kind of policy, and one of these parties is inching closer towards it by the day.
00:37:56.000 So, if you don't want to see that happen in America, the last best chance for Earth that I can see, before, you know, Jesus is like, alright, enough of this, I gotta come back and do something.
00:38:06.000 Obviously, I'm speaking a little bit hyperbolically, but it's not really, it shouldn't be a crazy decision.
00:38:15.000 I 100% agree.
00:38:16.000 And look, again, I'm not forcing religion on you, but if you are a church member, if you are a pastor, you have a duty to inform your congregation.
00:38:23.000 Don't worry about this 501c3 status stuff.
00:38:26.000 Understand what the rules are and play within the rules, but don't live in fear of that.
00:38:31.000 This is a bigger deal.
00:38:33.000 And I understand people can have a question about this who maybe think you're co-opting religion.
00:38:38.000 I get it.
00:38:39.000 There's some pastors out there who, I think Matt Chandler was one of them, who famously said, when I hear them talking about me, get my name out of your mouth is how he feels.
00:38:47.000 But what they didn't show was the other part of that clip where he's like, but the policies on the other side are demonic.
00:38:52.000 He had, and it was really balanced.
00:38:55.000 He basically said, like, the policies on the left are demonic, and Donald Trump, when he—he feels like Donald Trump co-ops religion sometimes.
00:39:03.000 And really, he was talking more about Republicans and conservatives in general, but he said specifically Donald Trump is the candidate right now.
00:39:09.000 That's 100% true.
00:39:11.000 Sometimes you feel like they only come knocking when they need votes on the conservative side.
00:39:14.000 Sometimes that happens with certain candidates.
00:39:16.000 I get it.
00:39:16.000 And that's a frustrating thing.
00:39:18.000 That doesn't mean you go for demonic policies.
00:39:20.000 This is the same group that brought you church services?
00:39:24.000 Absolutely not.
00:39:25.000 Orgies, on the other hand.
00:39:27.000 Yes.
00:39:28.000 Underground sex parties.
00:39:31.000 In New York.
00:39:32.000 Varma, you thought that you were done?
00:39:34.000 Huh?
00:39:35.000 Oh, come on.
00:39:39.000 Come on.
00:39:40.000 Well, look, I know that all these numbers are shockingly bad, but there is a plan to get the Catholics out to vote, thankfully.
00:39:48.000 Oh, yeah, that'll work.
00:39:51.000 That's fine.
00:39:51.000 Nice.
00:39:53.000 Be careful, though.
00:39:54.000 You're not supposed to talk in those things.
00:39:55.000 Well, you're supposed to talk to the priest.
00:39:57.000 It's a confession.
00:39:57.000 That's the whole point of it.
00:39:58.000 Well, not in the voting booth.
00:40:00.000 Oh, that's...
00:40:01.000 But no, we're...
00:40:01.000 Don't call it outside the lines.
00:40:04.000 Anyway, we need more Christians to vote, and it could change the election.
00:40:08.000 And look, I get it.
00:40:10.000 You don't want to try to, like, religion and politics, right?
00:40:14.000 Like, ah, you never talk about religion and politics.
00:40:16.000 Those are the two most important conversations you can ever have in your life.
00:40:19.000 Of course you're supposed to talk about those two things.
00:40:21.000 Start talking about them.
00:40:22.000 Pastors, start talking about them.
00:40:24.000 Churchgoers, start talking about them.
00:40:26.000 Be ready to say, yes, completely imperfect.
00:40:30.000 And no, maybe he hasn't completely come around and espouses every Christian view that I have.
00:40:35.000 I understand that.
00:40:36.000 But name for me a candidate for president that has.
00:40:40.000 You can't.
00:40:41.000 The great thing about God is that he can use anybody.
00:40:45.000 Look at the disciples.
00:40:47.000 Look at Paul.
00:40:48.000 He murdered people in the name, or essentially stood guard over the coats while he let somebody be stoned to death, the first martyr Stephen, while Persecuting Christianity had a change, and God used him for something great.
00:41:04.000 Never underestimate what God can do with people.
00:41:07.000 And so, make sure that you get out to vote.
00:41:09.000 Make sure that you start talking to people in your community groups, in your small groups, in your Bible studies, if they plan to go and vote.
00:41:14.000 And have great conversations with them.
00:41:16.000 Again, truth and love always wins.
00:41:19.000 But here's Trump's very, very simple message for Christians.
00:41:22.000 I'm here tonight to deliver a simple message to Christians across America.
00:41:27.000 It's time to stand up and save your country.
00:41:32.000 Do it.
00:41:33.000 Stand up and save your country.
00:41:35.000 By the way, thank you to our sponsor today, Tax Network USA. Do not let your tax issues overpower you.
00:41:41.000 I know sometimes that can be a bit chaotic, and it's one of those problems that you would probably rather not deal with, even though you get letters.
00:41:48.000 You're just like, ah, just put them in a drawer until something actually...
00:41:53.000 You know, there's a lot of celebrities, I hear, that have had some really bad tax issues over the years.
00:41:58.000 Maybe we'll get some more interviews for those guys.
00:42:01.000 Yeah, I think my mute button was on.
00:42:02.000 I hit it.
00:42:03.000 They installed the mute button over here for you.
00:42:05.000 Oh, I see.
00:42:07.000 Well, I'll be talking about that on another podcast soon.
00:42:09.000 Son of a gun!
00:42:10.000 But no, listen.
00:42:11.000 Contact Tax Network USA for immediate relief and expert guidance.
00:42:15.000 Trust me, it's better to start handling the problem than it is to just wait for it to go away.
00:42:19.000 TNUSA.com slash Crowder.
00:42:21.000 TNUSA.com slash Crowder.
00:42:24.000 Yeah.
00:42:25.000 That's right.
00:42:27.000 You can't just go.
00:42:28.000 You can't just go.
00:42:29.000 Hit it.
00:42:29.000 And Josh.
00:42:32.000 I thought you had something.
00:42:33.000 I'm sorry.
00:42:33.000 I thought you put your hand up.
00:42:34.000 Yeah, there's a lot of celebrities.
00:42:36.000 Yeah?
00:42:37.000 Can we move on?
00:42:38.000 I'm sorry.
00:42:39.000 Sports?
00:42:39.000 Do you know any athletes who...
00:42:41.000 Didn't Andre Rison end up in crazy?
00:42:44.000 There's a few.
00:42:44.000 I don't know who that is, but there's been a few athletes.
00:42:45.000 You don't know who Andre Rison is?
00:42:47.000 No.
00:42:47.000 Willie Mays Hayes got in a lot of trouble.
00:42:49.000 Stop it.
00:42:50.000 That's not a real person.
00:42:51.000 Wesley Snipes.
00:42:52.000 Thank you.
00:42:53.000 Wesley Snipes, I know.
00:42:54.000 Wesley Snipes.
00:42:55.000 Martha Stewart was one.
00:42:56.000 Martha Stewart.
00:42:56.000 Well, that was trading.
00:42:57.000 That was a trading issue.
00:42:58.000 Willie Nelson.
00:42:58.000 Willie Nelson's...
00:42:59.000 That kind of makes sense, though.
00:43:00.000 He's like a rebel country kind of guy.
00:43:02.000 Yeah.
00:43:03.000 Oh, Shakira.
00:43:04.000 Shakira got fried in taxes.
00:43:06.000 Did she really?
00:43:06.000 Yeah.
00:43:07.000 Dang.
00:43:07.000 She had to leave Spain because she owed so many taxes.
00:43:09.000 I think she's like...
00:43:10.000 Hold on.
00:43:10.000 You could just do that?
00:43:12.000 That's why she went to South America?
00:43:13.000 You just wait and then move somewhere else?
00:43:15.000 I'm pretty sure she owes like $500 million worth of taxes.
00:43:17.000 That's not real.
00:43:18.000 Those aren't real dollars.
00:43:19.000 Look it up.
00:43:20.000 No, no, no.
00:43:20.000 I mean, those aren't real dollars.
00:43:21.000 That makes sense.
00:43:22.000 That's why she released that song called My 1099 Don't Lie.
00:43:26.000 It does lie.
00:43:28.000 In her case, it does.
00:43:30.000 You're right.
00:43:31.000 My bank account don't lie.
00:43:32.000 Don't have that money.
00:43:33.000 I guess I'm moving countries.
00:43:35.000 I didn't know that was a thing.
00:43:36.000 Speaking of countries.
00:43:37.000 Yes.
00:43:38.000 So, a lot of...
00:43:40.000 There's a lot of news right now coming out of the Middle East and really we don't hear as much about Ukraine or see as much footage on that.
00:43:47.000 We hear a lot about the aid packages and we do see the press tours that Zelensky goes on but I haven't seen as much coverage of it.
00:43:56.000 It looks a lot like the world's on fire a bit and that's obviously not a good thing but Kamala Harris last night did a country over party town hall with Liz Cheney.
00:44:10.000 I know this isn't news, but my mind is in different stages of being blown that this is a match made in some place other than heaven.
00:44:19.000 It's unreal.
00:44:20.000 It's absolutely insane.
00:44:22.000 They're going to look back on this in 50 years and go, what?
00:44:24.000 These two people got together?
00:44:26.000 Well, when you realize that Kamala Harris will do anything to get power, and when you realize that Liz Cheney will also do anything to stay relevant, because she's irrelevant right now, couldn't even win her own state, it'll make more sense.
00:44:37.000 But Kamala Harris actually invoked Pearl Harbor.
00:44:40.000 We were once there as a nation.
00:44:43.000 And then Pearl Harbor happened.
00:44:45.000 Let's remember.
00:44:47.000 Recent history.
00:44:48.000 Europe remembers it well.
00:44:52.000 Then when we got attacked, Pearl Harbor, we jumped in.
00:44:57.000 And it is because America jumped in that we were ultimately able to win that war.
00:45:05.000 And it should be a constant reminder to us, we have to remember history, that isolationism, which is exactly what Donald Trump is pushing, pull out of NATO, abandon our friends, isolationism is not insulation.
00:45:23.000 It is not insulation.
00:45:25.000 It will not insulate us from harm in terms of our national security.
00:45:32.000 The question was isolation.
00:45:35.000 She invoked Pearl Harbor.
00:45:37.000 I don't even know what the question was, actually.
00:45:39.000 The only reasonable question is, like, can you explain isolationism and how it led to Pearl Harbor?
00:45:45.000 Then that answer makes some sense, sort of, because she said the words Pearl Harbor and isolationism in it, and that we won the war.
00:45:52.000 But she was asked after that a follow-up question, which I think is a very reasonable question.
00:45:56.000 What was the history of what led to Pearl Harbor?
00:45:58.000 And she had this to say.
00:46:00.000 Whoa, it's packed with some stuff!
00:46:04.000 It's packed with some fundamental stuff!
00:46:10.000 I say rather articulately.
00:46:15.000 Was that a note from your team on the prompter that says, say this articulately, that you just then read?
00:46:26.000 Talks like, that's packed with some stuff!
00:46:30.000 No, you can't just say that after not articulating something well and then say, but I said it articulately.
00:46:34.000 No, you didn't.
00:46:36.000 You just said that you did, and that's not the same thing at all.
00:46:38.000 And Liz Cheney, by the way, parroted the exact same point accusing the Republicans of being isolationists.
00:46:45.000 If you look at where the Republican Party is today, there's been a really dangerous embrace of isolationism.
00:46:56.000 Wrong!
00:46:57.000 A dangerous embrace of tyrants.
00:47:00.000 Lane, is Trump an isolationist?
00:47:02.000 There is such a conflation with not being an interventionist neocon to being the same thing as an isolationist.
00:47:10.000 No, everybody agrees there are certain theaters that the United States should intervene in at certain times when they benefit the national security interests of the American people.
00:47:17.000 Not to nation build wherever we want to because spread democracy and whatever their other cause du jour is.
00:47:25.000 There's a middle ground.
00:47:26.000 She's speaking of the 1% and the 99%.
00:47:29.000 She also doesn't understand what happened in World War II. At all.
00:47:32.000 It wasn't like the United States was just sitting over here on our thumbs doing nothing.
00:47:37.000 We didn't want to get dragged into another war.
00:47:39.000 World War I was a quagmire.
00:47:40.000 We waited as long as we could before we finally got involved in that and helped turn the tide of the war.
00:47:44.000 You're welcome, Europe, again.
00:47:46.000 Then, for World War II, people were like, hey, I just don't want to send our sons over to die again.
00:47:50.000 So we're going to basically just fund the entire campaign for Britain.
00:47:54.000 We basically saved them.
00:47:56.000 And that's fine.
00:47:56.000 That's something that we did.
00:47:57.000 But that's not an isolationist stance.
00:47:59.000 When you're funding them...
00:48:00.000 Well, they were considered to be isolationist before the war started, but I think it's not truly isolationist.
00:48:04.000 I think some historians would argue that the fact that they stayed out for so long was the reason that the Allies won.
00:48:10.000 That's what I was going to say.
00:48:12.000 It's something to be said for the fact that that's exactly it.
00:48:15.000 We were working on ourselves, making sure that our infrastructure, our military and everything was strong.
00:48:21.000 That's the reason that we were able to go out and kick so much ass when we did finally enter Yeah.
00:48:26.000 You mentioned it doesn't even make sense because if you're saying, if you're trying to warn us against isolationism, you should have used an example of where we were isolationists and it went wrong.
00:48:33.000 Yeah.
00:48:34.000 You just used an example of when we had an isolationist point of view and then said, you know what?
00:48:38.000 Too much is too much.
00:48:39.000 We've been in talks with England.
00:48:41.000 We've been in talks with, you know, France and everybody.
00:48:43.000 And now we're going to go.
00:48:44.000 That we went in.
00:48:44.000 So it was like...
00:48:45.000 What are you warning us against?
00:48:47.000 Yeah, and it's not like, I would argue, and look, I don't want to get into too much depth of the period between the wars, but do you think our isolationism is what caused This problem in Germany?
00:48:58.000 No, it was the treaty afterwards, and basically destroying the economy there.
00:49:02.000 And maybe we could have had an impact on that if we had just asserted ourselves, I guess, a little bit stronger, but that's not really the point.
00:49:07.000 Just to be clear also, this is a discussion on Pearl Harbor, so our activities in the Pacific probably should come into question in this discussion.
00:49:17.000 Well, I understand.
00:49:18.000 Like our oil embargo and energy embargo.
00:49:21.000 Of course.
00:49:22.000 Pearl Harbor, and Europe knows this.
00:49:24.000 Yes.
00:49:25.000 She pivoted to World War II in Europe, and I'm like, you don't even understand the history of what you're talking about there.
00:49:25.000 Well, yeah.
00:49:30.000 Regardless, it's a nuanced discussion.
00:49:31.000 Yes, that she's not equipped to have.
00:49:33.000 The isolationist viewpoint in America was very large at the time.
00:49:36.000 People like Charles Lindbergh were leading that kind of march, so it did exist.
00:49:39.000 She's not fully off base, but she is off base in conflating isolationism with what Trump stands for.
00:49:44.000 Exactly, right now.
00:49:44.000 So let's look at four key theaters of the world and see how each of the candidates fare, right?
00:49:50.000 Because there's a lot of people out there that'll say, she's bringing us to World War III, and I Listen, it's like a car alarm to me at this point, like the World War III thing, because it's so overused.
00:50:00.000 Somebody's like, World War III, and then they end up talking about college football or something like that.
00:50:04.000 I'm like, that's not World War III. That's maybe a big rivalry, but come on.
00:50:07.000 So I just don't listen to it as much, but it's a very real thing.
00:50:11.000 Like, it's something that we definitely have to be aware of and make sure we don't kind of accidentally stumble into.
00:50:17.000 But let's look at Russia and NATO.
00:50:19.000 And first, we'll start out with Kamala Harris.
00:50:21.000 She's offered full-throated support of NATO and Ukraine.
00:50:25.000 I helped mobilize a global response over 50 countries to defend against Putin's aggression.
00:50:32.000 You did, huh?
00:50:33.000 And as president, I will stand strong with Ukraine and our NATO allies.
00:50:43.000 Full-throated sports been a mission statement for decades.
00:50:45.000 Oh, come on.
00:50:47.000 There he is.
00:50:48.000 There's Ben.
00:50:50.000 Stiller's still there like, I'm supposed to be clapping now, right?
00:50:53.000 He's like, line!
00:50:55.000 Line!
00:50:56.000 He's got an ankle bracelet on.
00:50:58.000 You fall, come on around.
00:51:00.000 That's right.
00:51:01.000 Otherwise, those taxes will come back to haunt you.
00:51:03.000 I think I figured it out.
00:51:04.000 I think he has messed up with his daughter.
00:51:07.000 I think that he had a bad relationship with her or something at some point.
00:51:10.000 And it was like an absentee father.
00:51:11.000 And now she's like, you're going to make it up to me.
00:51:13.000 And he's like, all right, I have to do everything.
00:51:15.000 I got to go to the Harris campaign.
00:51:16.000 I'm a feminist now, I guess.
00:51:18.000 Would you just take some money?
00:51:22.000 I got a lot of that.
00:51:23.000 I could just give you money.
00:51:25.000 That'll make us pals.
00:51:27.000 You're 22 and a half, because I still count the halves.
00:51:30.000 Idiot.
00:51:32.000 Since Russia's invasion, the United States has contributed more than any other country.
00:51:36.000 Listen to this.
00:51:38.000 $175 billion given or committed, right?
00:51:42.000 Second place, $30.2 billion.
00:51:47.000 $175 billion?
00:51:48.000 It's $30.2 billion.
00:51:50.000 And by the way, Kamala Harris, your shining accomplishment was getting a bipartisan bill that didn't even make it to a vote on securing the border.
00:52:00.000 Actually, it was to give money to people overseas.
00:52:04.000 And secure the border, which could have theoretically just been done with an executive action, which is what you guys ended up doing in the first place.
00:52:09.000 It wasn't to secure the border either.
00:52:11.000 I don't think you had any real desire to secure our border.
00:52:15.000 You were more concerned with Ukraine's border with Russia in that bill.
00:52:20.000 And a new report from Le Monde also indicates that Biden may invite Ukraine to NATO if Harris is elected.
00:52:28.000 And let me just quickly dispel a point.
00:52:30.000 Real quick, though, to add that all this in a vacuum could be good or it could be bad, but there's no off-ramp.
00:52:36.000 There's no plan.
00:52:37.000 It's as long as it takes with no exit strategy.
00:52:40.000 That's insanity.
00:52:41.000 Right.
00:52:41.000 It's just an insane policy.
00:52:43.000 We're degrading our enemy.
00:52:44.000 The talking point that I've heard is that we are degrading Russia's capability to fight a war because they're focusing a lot of resources and manpower on this, and so they're weaker.
00:52:53.000 What happens when a country like Russia becomes weak?
00:52:57.000 First off, they've got a lot of nuclear weapons.
00:52:59.000 That's not weakness.
00:53:00.000 Second off, if they truly do become weak, guess who they start going shopping with?
00:53:04.000 People that they didn't necessarily want to be friends with in the past anyway.
00:53:08.000 China is one of the alliances that has gotten strengthened there.
00:53:11.000 China is probably looking at them like, we're just going to take you over at some point because you have resources that we want.
00:53:15.000 But you don't necessarily want them to be so weak that they have to go and find these partnerships with Iran and China and other places and strengthen those alliances that are already kind of existing anyway.
00:53:25.000 So it's not necessarily the best point to have an open-ended conflict with them.
00:53:30.000 You want to find an off-ramp.
00:53:31.000 You want to find a way to have peace and let Russia and Ukraine exist and stop some of the killing that's going on.
00:53:37.000 So here's Trump.
00:53:38.000 He's committed to ending the war through peaceful negotiation.
00:53:43.000 This is a war that has to end, and we're going to get that war ended.
00:53:46.000 I'm gonna try, and I think I can, get it ended as president-elect.
00:53:50.000 In other words, before I even take over the White House.
00:53:53.000 Gotta stop the people from dying.
00:53:56.000 Do you think that Ukraine should turn over some of its own land to Russia in order to end the war?
00:54:01.000 We'll see what happens.
00:54:02.000 What's your message to the ones who do tomorrow?
00:54:03.000 We'll see what happens.
00:54:04.000 Let's get some peace.
00:54:06.000 We need peace.
00:54:07.000 We need to stop the death and destruction, don't you think?
00:54:14.000 That's a simple message.
00:54:15.000 Listen, it's not complicated.
00:54:17.000 What are you going to do?
00:54:18.000 We need peace there.
00:54:20.000 What's your message for him?
00:54:21.000 How about some peace?
00:54:21.000 It'd be nice if people weren't dying, wouldn't it?
00:54:24.000 That's a pretty simple message.
00:54:26.000 If we don't go to World War III, Liz Cheney can't retire.
00:54:29.000 I know, she's got to live up to daddy's legacy.
00:54:32.000 You know what?
00:54:33.000 I apologize.
00:54:34.000 Think of the Liz Cheney's and her stock portfolio.
00:54:37.000 Please.
00:54:38.000 Do you mean Dick Cheney, former CEO of the amazing company that is Halliburton?
00:54:42.000 That's my plug.
00:54:43.000 I don't know.
00:54:46.000 It really is.
00:54:47.000 He really got an email from Halliburton saying, hey, look, we got some cash, bro.
00:54:50.000 Did you ask him where it came from?
00:54:52.000 Did it come from Russia?
00:54:53.000 It came from that non-competitive government contract for oil infrastructure in Iraq.
00:54:53.000 Huh?
00:54:57.000 I would love to see Liz Cheney in a helmet.
00:55:00.000 What kind?
00:55:01.000 In a body armor.
00:55:02.000 I'm saying, like, in, you know, combat year.
00:55:05.000 I would love to see her on the ground.
00:55:06.000 You want to fight a war?
00:55:06.000 Yeah, let's go.
00:55:07.000 Let's go.
00:55:09.000 She probably is like kind of the Russians in World War I where they actually caused more problems because they got in the way.
00:55:14.000 Liz Cheney would kind of get in the way and be like, we gotta evac her.
00:55:17.000 Now five people get shot trying to save her.
00:55:18.000 That sucks.
00:55:20.000 Trump said, by the way, 100%.
00:55:22.000 He would keep the United States in NATO if everybody pays their fair share.
00:55:26.000 And under Trump, the number of countries meeting the 2% minimum jumped from 4 to 10.
00:55:31.000 He had a 250% success rate.
00:55:36.000 On getting people to pay their fair share.
00:55:38.000 Do you know what the fair share is?
00:55:39.000 We hear about billionaires and everybody paying taxes.
00:55:41.000 At least we're defining it here.
00:55:42.000 It's 2%.
00:55:43.000 Oh, 2%.
00:55:44.000 2% is the country's fair share.
00:55:46.000 Of your own military GDP. It's not you're giving 2% to NATO. You're spending 2% on your own defense.
00:55:52.000 Build your own walls and military morons.
00:55:55.000 I'm tired of the European free letters.
00:55:57.000 Poor and stupid.
00:55:57.000 I know.
00:55:58.000 Let the barbarian hordes take them over.
00:56:01.000 Besides the Polish and the Estonians.
00:56:02.000 All right, let's turn our attention to the Middle East.
00:56:04.000 We've got to land this plane.
00:56:06.000 Harris, she removed the Houthis, an Iranian proxy, from the terror list.
00:56:12.000 You know, the Houthis, they're the people that are shooting at our ships right now, and pretty much indiscriminately any ships that come near them.
00:56:18.000 Who needs it?
00:56:18.000 Global shipping?
00:56:19.000 By the way, they also tried to send ballistic, I think, missiles into Israel from their little section of the world there.
00:56:27.000 It's a goodwill.
00:56:27.000 They tried to do a whole lot of stuff.
00:56:28.000 It was cute, yeah.
00:56:29.000 You removed them from the terror list.
00:56:31.000 Gave billions of dollars to Iran for the hostage release.
00:56:35.000 Failed to enforce sanctions against said terrible state Iran.
00:56:39.000 Which resulted in a windfall of over $100 billion since 2021.
00:56:43.000 And I believe over a trillion dollars.
00:56:45.000 We'll get to it down here.
00:56:46.000 I see it down here.
00:56:47.000 A trillion dollars.
00:56:49.000 In additional...
00:56:50.000 Actually, I'll get to the trillion in a second because these are big numbers, but just think $100 billion windfall since 2021.
00:56:56.000 That's fine.
00:56:56.000 Trump, he killed the Iranian terror leader, Qasem Soleimani.
00:57:00.000 Very isolationist.
00:57:01.000 Basically said, boom!
00:57:02.000 Did it!
00:57:03.000 And then, you know what he did?
00:57:04.000 He did a truth post over to those guys and said, gotcha boy!
00:57:08.000 And he's just a flaming wreck.
00:57:10.000 He died like a coward.
00:57:11.000 He died like a dog.
00:57:12.000 Beautiful dog.
00:57:12.000 Oopsie.
00:57:13.000 He's on Highway 57, might want to send an ambulance.
00:57:16.000 A dog named Vagina.
00:57:18.000 Yes, exactly.
00:57:19.000 He did it, and he rubbed their faces right in it, and he put 1,500 sanctions on Iranian oil that cost Iran $1 trillion.
00:57:26.000 That's where I was going with the trillion.
00:57:28.000 For some reason, I thought the Harris administration had removed so many of those restrictions that there was a trillion-dollar impact there, but it was actually Donald Trump putting regulations on that cost them a trillion dollars.
00:57:38.000 I almost misspoke.
00:57:38.000 I don't want to have to tie a tie again and have an admonishment.
00:57:43.000 Yeah, well, you don't want to do that, because you can only do a single Windsor.
00:57:50.000 You just give a tying dig a jerk.
00:57:53.000 Really?
00:57:54.000 Yeah, it's not a real man.
00:57:56.000 A real man doubles that thing up.
00:57:58.000 Okay, let's do bow ties.
00:58:00.000 Double knotted.
00:58:02.000 I don't want to do bow ties.
00:58:03.000 I can't tie a bow tie.
00:58:04.000 September of this year, after being threatened by an Iranian assassination plot, Donald Trump said, if I were president, I would inform the threatening country.
00:58:11.000 I love how he doesn't name them.
00:58:13.000 Then he names them, right?
00:58:14.000 But he does it in two steps.
00:58:16.000 In this case, Iran, that if they do anything to harm this person, we're going to blow your largest cities and the country itself to smithereens!
00:58:25.000 Smithereens, folks.
00:58:26.000 That's a white catchphrase.
00:58:29.000 Iran's like, smithereens, is that one of the books in the Bible?
00:58:32.000 Yeah, can we get a translation on smithereens?
00:58:34.000 Is this a bad thing?
00:58:36.000 Where is smithereens?
00:58:37.000 I love that.
00:58:38.000 Blow your largest cities.
00:58:39.000 That's not good enough!
00:58:40.000 And the country itself.
00:58:42.000 The entire land.
00:58:44.000 Let's go to North Korea because nothing could go wrong there.
00:58:47.000 Under Harris, we've had missile tests.
00:58:50.000 113 under the Harris-Biden administration.
00:58:52.000 Only 56 under Donald Trump.
00:58:54.000 And look, I like to make fun of their missile tests.
00:58:57.000 It's one more than double.
00:58:59.000 It's just a little bit over.
00:59:00.000 I like to make fun of their missile tests.
00:59:02.000 The scientists that see the rockets go up are all holding each other arm in arm and went...
00:59:07.000 They're just like, alright, shoot us, I guess, because that's what happens.
00:59:11.000 So I know they're getting much better.
00:59:13.000 They are very capable.
00:59:14.000 Japan is obviously on guard.
00:59:16.000 South Korea on guard against those guys.
00:59:18.000 It's going to be crazy if they start doing stupid stuff.
00:59:21.000 North Korea has also completely cut ties with the South and moved forward on nuclear development.
00:59:26.000 That's no small thing.
00:59:28.000 That's a big deal.
00:59:29.000 They're sending crap balloons into South Korea.
00:59:32.000 That's not the biggest deal right now.
00:59:34.000 Well, they declared South Korea to be a hostile state.
00:59:38.000 They had to redo their constitution.
00:59:41.000 So for the first time, they viewed the South Korean people as a totally separate people, which basically sets the pretext for an invasion and a murdering of indiscriminate civilians.
00:59:51.000 Because they're no longer Korean people in their eye.
00:59:51.000 Yeah.
00:59:54.000 It's a big deal, especially if things go south in Taiwan, then, you know, who knows?
00:59:59.000 Well, there's just a lot of these kind of trigger points around the globe that have to be managed.
01:00:02.000 We have 30,000 in South Korea, 50,000 in Japan.
01:00:06.000 There's Guam, there's Americans that are directly under that missile threat right now.
01:00:10.000 Yeah.
01:00:11.000 And also Hawaii.
01:00:12.000 Who can forget the missile?
01:00:14.000 Accidental missile alert.
01:00:15.000 That's where Pearl Harbor was.
01:00:17.000 The place of Pearl Harbor.
01:00:19.000 That's packed full of stuff.
01:00:21.000 And fires.
01:00:23.000 It's bad.
01:00:24.000 Harrison Biden also maintained the only path forward is denuclearization.
01:00:30.000 Okay.
01:00:31.000 Good luck.
01:00:33.000 You know what they do?
01:00:34.000 They look at Libya and they're like, hmm.
01:00:37.000 Gave up his nukes and toppled.
01:00:39.000 So that's, you know, I'm not sure that we're going to do that.
01:00:42.000 We may hang on to those bargaining chips.
01:00:44.000 By the way, that's the pride and joy, it seems, of the North Koreans is their nuclear program or at least whatever program it is.
01:00:50.000 And it looks like they're willing to just kind of give it away to Iran or anybody else who wants it too.
01:00:54.000 So that's also a bad thing.
01:00:56.000 Let's go to Trump.
01:00:57.000 Trump did two things fantastically.
01:01:01.000 He belittled And he also was open to dialogue, but he was going to call you fat at dinner.
01:01:09.000 The United States has great strength and patience, but if it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea.
01:01:23.000 Rocketman is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime.
01:01:30.000 Big deal.
01:01:38.000 His face is hilarious.
01:01:49.000 Look what they stole from you.
01:01:52.000 Extra funny to me because he looks like a friend of mine.
01:01:54.000 Yeah.
01:01:56.000 Also, the guy looks like he's looking around like, hey, you guys got appetizers without me?
01:02:00.000 Oh, come on, bro.
01:02:01.000 That's not good.
01:02:02.000 He's hearing the translation come in and hearing the cameras click and he's like, they can't make me look thin.
01:02:06.000 There's no way.
01:02:07.000 Look at this face.
01:02:08.000 What do you think they need to be hiding?
01:02:09.000 Are you talking about me?
01:02:10.000 Actually, that entire montage perfectly encapsulates what Donald Trump does.
01:02:16.000 Goes before the UN, makes a speech, calls him Rocket Man and says the path that he's going down is not a good one, and then shows up and becomes the first president to walk into North Korea and sit down and call you fat at dinner.
01:02:30.000 Like, I'm just saying, like, Donald Trump is willing to kind of go, but the entire time he's there, he's kind of flicking the jab at you, making sure that you understand your position, but also saying, hey, look, things can change.
01:02:40.000 We can talk.
01:02:42.000 But on my terms, right, he held two summits with North Korea and Singapore in 2018, achieved a temporary moratorium on North Korean missile tests, also in Hanoi 2019.
01:02:50.000 That fell apart, but he's willing to go and do it, right?
01:02:53.000 By the way, dinner is the worst time for someone to call you fat.
01:02:56.000 It is, because right before you eat, now you're self-conscious.
01:02:59.000 I want to eat...
01:02:59.000 No, but I can't, because this turd called me fat.
01:03:03.000 I guess I'll just have the salad.
01:03:05.000 No, he didn't.
01:03:06.000 Jerk.
01:03:06.000 He had the bulgogi.
01:03:07.000 Let's do China, and then what we're going to do is continue.
01:03:10.000 So we're going to do China, and then, Lane, I want to dive into this a little bit more for Mug Club after all of this.
01:03:15.000 We'll dive in some here, too, but I know we're running a little bit late.
01:03:18.000 I just want to make one 10-second point on denuclearization.
01:03:22.000 No matter who gets elected, and I hope it's Trump, obviously.
01:03:25.000 Yeah.
01:03:26.000 There's going to have to be a fundamental change of policy.
01:03:28.000 Hanoi proved that.
01:03:29.000 He went in full on the board.
01:03:31.000 You got to denuclearize.
01:03:32.000 Kim said, we're going to get sanctions relief first.
01:03:36.000 They both disagreed.
01:03:37.000 They're not giving up their nukes.
01:03:38.000 There's got to be a fundamental rethink.
01:03:39.000 No.
01:03:40.000 Why would you?
01:03:41.000 I know.
01:03:42.000 It's the only way...
01:03:43.000 It's not happening.
01:03:44.000 No.
01:03:45.000 I mean, I just think that's a non-starter for these guys.
01:03:46.000 That's why you can't let Iran get them.
01:03:47.000 Yes.
01:03:48.000 Because then you run into this problem again.
01:03:49.000 Well, and Iran has their finger on the trigger because they hate the Jews.
01:03:52.000 I don't know if that's a news flash for you guys.
01:03:54.000 So China, Harris.
01:03:55.000 Newsflash, buddy.
01:03:57.000 Newsflash, pal!
01:03:58.000 Newsflash.
01:03:59.000 Whoa.
01:03:59.000 Whoa.
01:04:00.000 Wow.
01:04:02.000 That's...
01:04:02.000 Nick Fuentes get on the show.
01:04:05.000 What?
01:04:05.000 What the heck happened?
01:04:08.000 HR Sam, I'm sorry.
01:04:10.000 I'm not.
01:04:10.000 I'm not normally sorry.
01:04:13.000 But I'm sorry.
01:04:14.000 All right.
01:04:14.000 China.
01:04:15.000 Harris.
01:04:16.000 China is asshole!
01:04:17.000 Pretty much.
01:04:18.000 China's state outlets have described Harris as mediocre and inexperienced.
01:04:23.000 I don't even care.
01:04:24.000 They're just making fun of her.
01:04:25.000 I think the world should make fun of her.
01:04:27.000 But it actually comes with some consequences.
01:04:29.000 Under the Biden-Harris regime, China has become extremely aggressive.
01:04:33.000 In Taiwan, last week, they had a record number of warplanes, 153, that encircled the island during war games.
01:04:39.000 How would that feel to you?
01:04:42.000 To be the subject of a war game?
01:04:45.000 To be the subject of something called a war game?
01:04:46.000 Yeah, so let's play a game.
01:04:48.000 I'm going to be the hurricane of war planes and you're going to be the eye of the storm.
01:04:51.000 We're all just hanging out with you about to invade your island.
01:04:55.000 Ah, psych!
01:04:55.000 Maybe, maybe not.
01:04:56.000 Who knows?
01:04:57.000 That would not be a fun place to live.
01:04:59.000 By the way, in the Philippines, they're denying freedom of navigation of Philippine vessels.
01:05:02.000 Now listen, I know what you might think about that like, whatever.
01:05:05.000 They're literally ramming them.
01:05:08.000 If somebody did that to us, we'd probably be a little pissed off.
01:05:11.000 If somebody did that to us repeatedly for, I don't know, years now, we'd probably shoot people.
01:05:17.000 Gerald, did you ever consider maybe there was just a few accidents?
01:05:19.000 It's not.
01:05:21.000 There's video of it where they're like...
01:05:23.000 Oh, so sorry!
01:05:25.000 It's not like random, who cares about the Philippines?
01:05:28.000 No.
01:05:28.000 Well, first of all, we do have a mutual defense agreement with them.
01:05:30.000 And we don't have it with Taiwan.
01:05:31.000 Right.
01:05:32.000 But second of all, this is just about freedom of navigation of international waters.
01:05:36.000 And that is very, very important.
01:05:37.000 Wait, wait, wait.
01:05:37.000 Who said that they would guarantee that?
01:05:40.000 Essentially, throughout the world?
01:05:41.000 The United States.
01:05:42.000 Oh, that's right.
01:05:43.000 So it brings us in in multiple ways.
01:05:46.000 This sucks.
01:05:47.000 Yes.
01:05:48.000 It's a really bad situation.
01:05:49.000 I mean, without that freedom of navigation and without free trade, then you have a fundamental rethink of what the global economy is.
01:05:55.000 And that affects everybody.
01:05:57.000 That affects exporters, importers.
01:05:59.000 Pirates would love it.
01:06:00.000 Well, the Chinese would love it because they could control all of the trade that went through the South China Sea and through the Western Pacific.
01:06:06.000 Yeah.
01:06:07.000 Donald Trump on China, first president to address the China problems with trade and IP theft and aggression.
01:06:13.000 We have been ripped off by China for a long time.
01:06:15.000 Over the last number of years, China has taken out of this country $500 billion and more a year to examine China's policies, practices, and actions with regard to the forced transfers.
01:06:29.000 Of American technology and the theft of American intellectual property.
01:06:34.000 We have been ripped off by China.
01:06:36.000 We've been ripped off by China.
01:06:38.000 We are now making it clear to China that after years of targeting our industries and stealing our intellectual property, the theft of American jobs and wealth has come to an end.
01:06:53.000 Donald Trump was very strong on China.
01:06:57.000 He started a trade war in 2018.
01:06:59.000 Trump levied 40% tariffs on $162 billion worth of goods.
01:07:03.000 He banned Huawei and ZTE from the United States and also wanted to ban TikTok.
01:07:08.000 By the way, those Biden-Harris administration, they hate those tariffs.
01:07:12.000 They kept all of those tariffs, or at least the very large majority of them, even though they're now decrying them as a stupid economic tool because it'll just hurt people here.
01:07:21.000 He committed billions of dollars in weapons sales to Taiwan so that they could take care of the hurricane.
01:07:25.000 He also has been vague on his future commitments to Taiwan strategically.
01:07:29.000 Trump suggested to you that the US may not actually have a duty to defend Taiwan.
01:07:34.000 That Taiwan maybe should actually pay the United States...
01:07:38.000 For protection.
01:07:39.000 What should we make of that?
01:07:41.000 I thought it was a remarkable moment in the interview.
01:07:44.000 You know, we ended up asking, you know, a lot of economic questions about sanctions against Russia.
01:07:48.000 And we asked about Taiwan sort of as a throwaway question.
01:07:51.000 And he basically came out and said, what has Taiwan done for us?
01:07:56.000 You know, we have been Taiwan's insurance policy for years.
01:07:59.000 They stole our chips business.
01:08:01.000 I'm just not sure it makes sense for us to, you know, keep defending them when China wants them so badly.
01:08:07.000 It was a really remarkable moment.
01:08:09.000 Yes, that's fantastic.
01:08:11.000 Listen, Donald Trump is playing a game here and he's doing it very, very well.
01:08:15.000 Because not only did he say Taiwan, essentially, like, you guys need to make sure that you're ready to protect yourself.
01:08:21.000 You guys need to make sure that you are absolutely 100% on board with us.
01:08:25.000 If we're going to come to your aid, there has to be mutual benefit.
01:08:27.000 We get chips, I understand that.
01:08:28.000 That's fantastic for us to throw our economy into a tailspin if we didn't.
01:08:31.000 But then he balanced it out by saying this to Xi.
01:08:34.000 I wouldn't have to use force because he respects me and knows I'm effing crazy.
01:08:40.000 That's the kind of leader you want on both sides of the table.
01:08:43.000 Strong negotiator, and don't F with me because I'm crazy.
01:08:47.000 We're going to talk a little bit more about this.
01:08:48.000 If you're not a member of Mug Club, now's a good time to sign up so that you can see the rest of this.
