00:00:00.000 La La La La Chill is gone Oh no, let me beat you.

00:01:23.000 The End of the Week.
00:01:53.000 The End of the Week.
00:02:01.000 Everything's a little bit harder.
00:02:03.000 Is that a band-aid?
00:02:04.000 It's a band-aid.
00:02:05.000 You don't need to know the story.
00:02:06.000 It's just fingers not doing well, but it all began with an empanada.
00:02:11.000 You're definitely telling a story later.
00:02:13.000 Maybe later.
00:02:14.000 I just don't want anyone to be blamed.
00:02:16.000 It's no one's fault but my own.
00:02:18.000 It is your fault.
00:02:19.000 And the dirty Mexicans who do the construction and leave empanadas all over the place.
00:02:22.000 So...
00:02:26.000 Glad to be with you.
00:02:27.000 Hey, quick question.
00:02:28.000 Is President Trump cutting Medicaid?
00:02:31.000 The Medicaid sky is falling.
00:02:33.000 That's what you hear from the left.
00:02:34.000 The answer, of course, is no.
00:02:36.000 Canada just had a debate for people vying for the head of the Liberal Party to replace Justin Trudeau, and there are some threats made.
00:02:45.000 Did you know that they kind of threatened to potentially nuke the United States?
00:02:48.000 That's not a clickbait headline.
00:02:51.000 They actually imply it, and it's silly because Canada shouldn't exist.
00:02:56.000 We have the Epstein Watch.
00:02:57.000 There could be a list released right now.
00:02:59.000 This is, I believe right now it's 10, 12 Eastern, so we'll see what happens.
00:03:03.000 I don't know what's going to be new coming from that.
00:03:05.000 And how much does it cost for an NGO to funnel taxpayer dollars to a non-profit and make a puppet show?
00:03:13.000 About 17 million.
00:03:14.000 We're going to talk about that today.
00:03:17.000 The hits just keep coming in figuring out the fraud.
00:03:21.000 As we talk about Canada, I guarantee you that I'll probably lose my mind.
00:03:27.000 So if you're still watching on YouTube, and you shouldn't be, you might see this.
00:03:33.000 That means head on over to Rumble.
00:03:34.000 We don't censor there, and it's a live show weekdays, 10 a.m.
00:03:38.000 Eastern, including tomorrow.
00:03:39.000 If you're a Rumble Premium member, question to you, what scares you most about Canada?
00:03:43.000 Don't say nothing.
00:03:44.000 Gerald.
00:03:45.000 Glad to have you here, Captain Morgan.
00:03:47.000 Thank you very much.
00:03:47.000 And Mr. Josh Firestein, not underscore Firestein, on the X. I'm on Rumble, too.
00:03:52.000 Check me out.
00:03:52.000 I got three videos on there.
00:03:54.000 There you go.
00:03:54.000 On the Rumble.
00:03:55.000 I'm a big deal.
00:03:56.000 Tonight it's a Rumble.
00:03:59.000 Okay.
00:04:00.000 Some workers who were terminated by Doge have not been taking it well.
00:04:04.000 Let's start with this.
00:04:05.000 I really felt that we were providing support and care to humanity around the world because it's the right thing to do.
00:04:14.000 And that made me feel proud no matter who was president.
00:04:16.000 And now I don't know what to do.
00:04:18.000 And I... I have cried every day.
00:04:21.000 I think that that's normal.
00:04:23.000 I have a 15-month-old at home and I'm looking at him and thinking, well, what's this country that we're now living in?
00:04:29.000 We're here for safety.
00:04:31.000 And we're patriots.
00:04:32.000 We love our country.
00:04:33.000 That's why we're taking these jobs that don't pay us in the private sector.
00:04:37.000 Shut up.
00:04:38.000 They don't exist in the private sector.
00:04:39.000 I'm going to get a private sector job tomorrow.
00:04:41.000 But I care about this country and I want to be here.
00:04:43.000 We're just with the same.
00:04:44.000 The entire industry is going down.
00:04:46.000 and what are the senators going to do about it?
00:04:48.000 Did he just say this entire industry is going down?
00:04:52.000 Yes.
00:04:52.000 It's not an industry.
00:04:53.000 It's not an industry at all.
00:04:55.000 The bloat industry?
00:04:56.000 Yes.
00:04:56.000 Yeah, public service.
00:04:57.000 I could get a job in the private sector.
00:04:59.000 Well, then why didn't you?
00:05:00.000 Do it.
00:05:01.000 Why didn't you?
00:05:02.000 That's a real question.
00:05:03.000 Do you really believe that this person is doing it just for altruistic reasons?
00:05:06.000 Well, I did it because I want to serve my country.
00:05:08.000 By doing accounting for a government bureaucracy, that's how you're serving your country?
00:05:13.000 So we've now equated...
00:05:15.000 Suckling at the taxpayer teeth is serving your country.
00:05:17.000 I've said this in the past.
00:05:19.000 I want to do away with the term public servant unless there is a significant pay cut.
00:05:24.000 How do you gauge your public service?
00:05:27.000 How much have you risked?
00:05:29.000 How much have you sacrificed?
00:05:30.000 And by that objective, quantifiable parameter, Donald Trump is the most servicey public servant in the history of this country.
00:05:41.000 Yeah.
00:05:43.000 Absolutely.
00:05:43.000 Elon Musk, you put him right there.
00:05:44.000 People are like, oh, he's making so much money.
00:05:46.000 Do you know how much he's lost?
00:05:47.000 Yeah.
00:05:48.000 Because of the Tesla boycotts of people?
00:05:50.000 $120 billion of personal worth.
00:05:53.000 Yeah.
00:05:54.000 He has sacrificed, and you're like, oh, he got a $12 billion Starlink contract.
00:05:57.000 Okay, or whatever it was.
00:05:58.000 I think it was SpaceX.
00:05:59.000 Who cares?
00:06:00.000 Also, are you a strong patriot, or do you cry every day?
00:06:04.000 I'm a strong, independent woman, but it's pretty normal to cry every day over something that people experience usually half a dozen times in their life, right?
00:06:11.000 Like layoffs.
00:06:12.000 Isn't that normal?
00:06:13.000 No, it's not.
00:06:14.000 What am I implying?
00:06:16.000 I'm implying that if you're crying every day because you lost a job that shouldn't exist, you're weak.
00:06:22.000 You're weak of character.
00:06:23.000 It's probably good for a 15-month-old son.
00:06:26.000 That strong male fit weight.
00:06:28.000 Yes, exactly.
00:06:31.000 Here's what you're supposed to do.
00:06:33.000 You're supposed to foster stability and confidence in the child regardless of your circumstances.
00:06:39.000 In other words, even if you had no money to eat, that child shouldn't know until you reach that point.
00:06:45.000 That is your job as a parent.
00:06:47.000 Your duty.
00:06:48.000 But that would require you to think about it.
00:06:50.000 Not feel.
00:06:52.000 That's the problem with this country.
00:06:54.000 The problem with modern feminism is it's permeated everything.
00:06:57.000 We'll get to Canada in a second.
00:07:01.000 Speaking of feminism.
00:07:02.000 I feel this way about this job.
00:07:04.000 Yeah, okay, but is that what the numbers show?
00:07:09.000 Do you think that the job is necessary?
00:07:11.000 Do the Americans who pay the job...
00:07:13.000 How about this?
00:07:15.000 Americans should be able to determine.
00:07:16.000 You know how we determine here if someone is paid?
00:07:20.000 I determine if it's worth it.
00:07:22.000 And you do.
00:07:23.000 There's a decision that is made.
00:07:24.000 Why?
00:07:24.000 Because it's this guy's money.
00:07:27.000 It's your money.
00:07:29.000 Use it when you need it, taxpayer!
00:07:33.000 Well, we should have wrote a jingle for this.
00:07:34.000 We should.
00:07:36.000 Missed out.
00:07:38.000 That's not me.
00:07:39.000 Go Doji, Wentworth, 877-AUDIT-NOW! There we go.
00:07:44.000 As long as I don't have to see flow from Progressive.
00:07:47.000 Guys, is it me?
00:07:48.000 Do you have any empathy?
00:07:50.000 Sympathy for these?
00:07:50.000 I don't.
00:07:51.000 I don't even feel a little bit bad.
00:07:53.000 Does that make me a sociopath?
00:07:54.000 I don't even feel a little bit bad.
00:07:57.000 I know what you're thinking.
00:07:58.000 Like, maybe 2%, no percent.
00:08:00.000 No percent.
00:08:01.000 Zero percent.
00:08:01.000 Not even 1%.
00:08:02.000 Not even 0.2%.
00:08:04.000 Zero percent bad for these people because I guarantee you they wouldn't feel bad for you.
00:08:10.000 They didn't.
00:08:11.000 No.
00:08:12.000 2021, or whatever year it was, when they kicked all the military out for not getting a vaccine.
00:08:16.000 Exactly.
00:08:17.000 I didn't hear an ounce of empathy, an ounce of sympathy from them.
00:08:19.000 Yeah, where were the USA protests then?
00:08:21.000 Right, Josh?
00:08:21.000 Yeah.
00:08:22.000 I didn't see any tears.
00:08:23.000 Yep.
00:08:23.000 You know what I did see?
00:08:24.000 I did see these same people, maybe the exact same people, but the same side, saying stuff like, you know what?
00:08:29.000 If you didn't get the vaccine, back of the line for you at the hospital.
00:08:31.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:08:32.000 You don't get treatment.
00:08:34.000 That's what I saw.
00:08:34.000 Yeah.
00:08:35.000 Where was the empathy for businesses that were shutting down?
00:08:38.000 Right.
00:08:38.000 And they lost their medical care and they lost their jobs.
00:08:40.000 Yep.
00:08:41.000 Businesses that were started not at the taxpayer's expense, but, you know, at great risk to the business creator.
00:08:45.000 I think it's over 700,000 that shuttered during COVID. Mission Control, you can fact check me on that.
00:08:49.000 I believe that's number 700,000 shuttered.
00:08:52.000 Where was the empathy then?
00:08:53.000 Where was the sympathy then?
00:08:54.000 Governor Whitmer?
00:08:55.000 Newsom?
00:08:56.000 Huh?
00:08:57.000 Cuomo?
00:08:58.000 Where?
00:08:59.000 But now we're supposed to have empathy for the people who are doing a useless job at the taxpayer's expense.
00:09:04.000 No.
00:09:05.000 No, we don't.
00:09:06.000 Those businesses shouldn't have been shut down during COVID. These jobs should be cut.
00:09:11.000 That's the difference.
00:09:12.000 Why?
00:09:12.000 Not because I feel, but because it's right.
00:09:14.000 Let's go to something else that is right.
00:09:17.000 Donald Trump, President Trump, is not gutting or cutting Medicaid.
00:09:23.000 But the left right now, have you heard this?
00:09:25.000 They've been fear-mongering.
00:09:26.000 Well, they accuse us of fear-mongering.
00:09:28.000 Kind of like they accuse us of hate while they call you a Nazi.
00:09:33.000 And don't let that work, by the way.
00:09:34.000 They did it with Nixon, Reagan, Bush Sr. They even did it with Quayle, certainly George W. Bush, and Donald Trump.
00:09:41.000 They did it with Mitt Romney, for crying out loud.
00:09:42.000 They've accused every single conservative or Republican of being a Nazi since the 1960s.
00:09:48.000 But you're the one who's fear-mongering.
00:09:50.000 So now they're going out, and I don't know if this is being fact-checked by PolitiFact, by WAPO, if this is fake news.
00:09:56.000 The left is saying, hey, Medicaid is going to be cut.
00:10:00.000 Medicaid is going to...
00:10:02.000 Donald Trump's going to gut Medicaid.
00:10:04.000 Is it true?
00:10:04.000 Well, it's time for an installment of Claim Truth.
00:10:10.000 And before we get into this little bit, Medicaid, I want you to close your eyes for just a second.
00:10:16.000 Please, close your eyes.
00:10:17.000 Picture the kind of recipient in your mind's eye of Medicaid.
00:10:23.000 Who do you picture?
00:10:25.000 Right?
00:10:25.000 When you think Medicaid.
00:10:26.000 Not Medicare, Medicaid.
00:10:27.000 Okay.
00:10:27.000 Open them.
00:10:28.000 It's not.
00:10:31.000 It's not.
00:10:32.000 Just across the board.
00:10:33.000 And it's between $50 to $100 billion in just fraud that we don't know about with Medicaid.
00:10:37.000 Okay.
00:10:38.000 But before we get to that, one of the claims that is being made on the left is that there's nothing wrong with Medicaid, first off, and that it's inefficient, this claim that people like you and I make, that that's actually not true.
00:10:51.000 Long wait times are a myth.
00:10:52.000 Here's the truth.
00:10:54.000 Before we get to the montage, hey, Roger, you're on Medicaid.
00:10:57.000 What do you think?
00:11:01.000 All right, let's get to the next claim.
00:11:05.000 Right now, this is everywhere in the media, and they're really hoping to gin up some fear and solidify some votes.
00:11:12.000 We'll get to the demographics in a second.
00:11:14.000 Trump wants to gut Medicaid.
00:11:17.000 Republicans playing with fires.
00:11:19.000 They try to gut important benefits for millions.
00:11:22.000 They passed a bill that's not paid for, that will add to the deficit, that will give $4.5 trillion of tax cuts to billionaires and the largest corporations, and will gut Medicaid and take health care away from millions of Americans.
00:11:35.000 It's astonishing.
00:11:36.000 They want to cut a minimum.
00:11:38.000 The floor of $880 billion from Medicaid.
00:11:42.000 House Republicans' bill framework is to cut about $880 billion from Medicaid.
00:11:50.000 Okay.
00:11:52.000 Here's the truth.
00:11:54.000 Medicaid is mentioned nowhere in the bill at all.
00:11:59.000 Not even a little bit.
00:12:00.000 Once?
00:12:01.000 Not even.
00:12:02.000 I know.
00:12:03.000 That's a fair question.
00:12:04.000 No, not even once.
00:12:06.000 As a matter of fact, the one time that Donald Trump was asked about this, he was, some could argue, quite clear in his answer.
00:12:13.000 Can you guarantee that Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security will not be touched?
00:12:18.000 Yeah, I mean, I have said it so many times, you shouldn't be asking me that question.
00:12:23.000 This will not be read my lips.
00:12:25.000 It won't be read my lips anymore.
00:12:28.000 We're not going to touch it.
00:12:30.000 Now, we are going to look for fraud.
00:12:32.000 I'm sure you're okay with that, like people that shouldn't be on, people that are illegal aliens and others, criminals in many cases.
00:12:41.000 That was clear.
00:12:42.000 By the way, I was laughing during that montage a minute ago because CNN was saying, with $880 billion in Medicaid cuts, and the guy on the screen was nodding, the Chiron said, Mike Johnson promises not to cut Medicaid.
00:12:54.000 I know.
00:12:55.000 What are you doing?
00:12:56.000 The Chiron guy is one of us, I guess?
00:12:58.000 So, again, can someone tell me, have the fact-checkers fact-checked this?
00:13:02.000 That is the definition of fake news, right?
00:13:05.000 Misinformation.
00:13:06.000 It's misinformation that could actively harm people in this country, not to mention so division.
00:13:11.000 So the bill, which does not mention Medicaid anywhere, requires about $880 billion in savings over the next 10 years.
00:13:19.000 Now, one could argue that some of those savings may come from examining fraud, which we know takes place in Medicaid.
00:13:29.000 How do we know?
00:13:29.000 Well, CNBC, they released an article.
00:13:32.000 I don't know who they were citing.
00:13:34.000 References in the description.
00:13:35.000 $50 billion Medicaid fraud.
00:13:37.000 It's about $100 billion between Medicaid and Medicare.
00:13:40.000 Let's call it $50 billion.
00:13:41.000 Hey, is that gutting Medicaid?
00:13:43.000 Over 10 years, that's $500 billion of the $880 billion they're looking for.
00:13:48.000 Yeah.
00:13:49.000 Come on.
00:13:50.000 Keep in mind, every single year, $220 to $530 billion in fraud.
00:13:56.000 Every single year.
00:13:57.000 That's not misuse.
00:13:59.000 That's not bloat.
00:14:01.000 That's not loop.
00:14:03.000 We don't even know where it goes.
00:14:05.000 Gone.
00:14:06.000 Up to $500 billion a year.
00:14:08.000 And the left is screeching about this like it's a violation of civil rights.
00:14:12.000 Now, there could be, and there should be, separate from this bill, reforms to Medicaid.
00:14:17.000 There needs to be.
00:14:19.000 So, for example, what's been proposed?
00:14:21.000 Work requirements.
00:14:23.000 Closing some loopholes that are state-specific, because you have Medicaid, right?
00:14:27.000 It's both a federal and kind of state issue.
00:14:28.000 They have different parameters.
00:14:29.000 And Medicaid is not Medicare.
00:14:31.000 Medicaid, when you think someone who's disabled, someone who is unable to work, you may think elderly, though that's more Medicare.
00:14:37.000 Still, that's probably what you think.
00:14:39.000 These are not the primary beneficiaries of Medicaid now.
00:14:42.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:14:43.000 And by the way, on the state level, there's actually some pilot programs out there with states doing this and saving a lot of money by, instead of having a federal one-size-fits-all, they could save...
00:14:51.000 Approximately $700 billion to $1 trillion by doing that.
00:14:56.000 There's debate about it, but that's one of the ways you get it more efficient.
00:14:59.000 Hey, states' rights, there we go.
00:15:00.000 I would like to see reform in this bill for Medicaid, but it's not there, just to be clear.
00:15:06.000 Here's another truth.
00:15:07.000 Medicaid is really just a form of wealth redistribution.
00:15:10.000 That's why Bernie Sanders wanted Medicaid for all.
00:15:14.000 You have 96 million people on Medicaid.
00:15:19.000 96 million people.
00:15:20.000 Okay, now if you look at those demographics, and this does matter, white Americans make up close to 60% of the population.
00:15:28.000 They're about 43% of Medicaid beneficiaries.
00:15:30.000 Hispanic, 19% of the population.
00:15:33.000 They make up about 28% of Medicaid.
00:15:36.000 Black Americans, 12% of the population, 21% of Medicaid.
00:15:40.000 If I were to tell you that one racial minority, one, makes up a smaller percentage of Medicaid than the general population, You're right, it's Asians.
00:15:50.000 They are consistent.
00:15:51.000 They are consistent folk.
00:15:53.000 And that includes Pacific Islanders, so I guarantee you that's warped even a little bit more.
00:15:57.000 They make about 5.8% of the population, 5.5% of Medicaid.
00:16:02.000 That's just one demo.
00:16:03.000 We'll get to the age.
00:16:04.000 We'll get to disability.
00:16:05.000 Here's another truth.
00:16:08.000 And the left thinks this is wrong.
00:16:10.000 Able-bodied people of working age in the United States of America can comment.
00:16:15.000 Do you agree with this?
00:16:15.000 This is a statement.
00:16:17.000 Able-bodied Americans of working age should work.
00:16:25.000 Yeah.
00:16:26.000 Huh?
00:16:27.000 Breaking news.
00:16:27.000 Isn't that crazy?
00:16:28.000 If you believe that, or mostly believe it, you believe there needs to be reform to make.
00:16:33.000 There we go.
00:16:34.000 So, according to the left, this comes from a leftist article, link in the description, imposing a work requirement for able-bodied adults would remove 36 million Beneficiaries.
00:16:47.000 From Medicaid.
00:16:48.000 That's like a third.
00:16:49.000 I'll read you.
00:16:50.000 And this is the gross human rights violation they talk about.
00:16:52.000 The proposal work requirement would cut Medicaid by taking coverage away from people who don't meet unnecessary and burdensome work requirements.
00:17:02.000 And they go on to say who are unable to navigate complex verification systems.
00:17:07.000 In other words, this will take 30-something million people off Medicaid who don't know how to put together a cover letter and resume.
00:17:17.000 Burdensome work environment.
00:17:18.000 That's what I was just thinking.
00:17:19.000 Unnecessary and burdensome.
00:17:21.000 Yes, working is burdensome.
00:17:23.000 It's called work.
00:17:25.000 So is providing for yourself.
00:17:27.000 Yes, exactly.
00:17:28.000 You know what's burdensome for me?
00:17:29.000 Providing for you.
00:17:30.000 Yeah, there you go.
00:17:31.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:17:32.000 I'm working over here.
00:17:33.000 I've been up since 2.30 this morning.
00:17:34.000 This, this morning, feels a little burdensome.
00:17:39.000 I fell asleep on the couch too early, and then I woke up too early, and it just messes up your sleep cycle.
00:17:43.000 You just kind of went with it.
00:17:44.000 Yeah, I just kind of went with it, but it was a bad idea.
00:17:45.000 I thought I could get a nap, and ho, ho, ho, mistake.
00:17:47.000 It never happens.
00:17:48.000 By the way, 27% of Medicaid beneficiaries are unemployed due to disability or some kind of illness.
00:17:55.000 Only 27%.
00:17:56.000 And by the way, there's a lot of fraud there.
00:17:58.000 You know anyone who collects disability who kind of just like, oh, wait, does a guy follow me?
00:18:02.000 Does he have a telescopic lens over there?
00:18:04.000 All right, give me my crutch.
00:18:05.000 And he kind of does a little...
00:18:07.000 Does a little blackbeard hop, right?
00:18:09.000 We all know those people.
00:18:10.000 For sure, but that's only 27%.
00:18:12.000 It's still only 27%.
00:18:13.000 Even if you go, okay, fine, you guys, no fraud there at all.
00:18:16.000 I'll admit that, sure.
00:18:17.000 Even then, that's so many people who are able-bodied.
00:18:20.000 Yes, exactly.
00:18:21.000 And the left will always do this with abortion.
00:18:24.000 They'll try and give you a strength.
00:18:25.000 What about someone who has no arms and legs and is deaf-mute and unable to work?
00:18:32.000 You just want to leave them on the...
00:18:33.000 So they tug on your heartstrings.
00:18:36.000 Hold on, hold on.
00:18:36.000 But that's not representative of Medicaid.
00:18:39.000 MC Baba's got a career?
00:18:41.000 Yes.
00:18:41.000 Let's go.
00:18:42.000 Yeah, come on.
00:18:44.000 He's not letting his disabilities hold him back.
00:18:46.000 Come on now.
00:18:47.000 Helen Keller had a career.
00:18:49.000 Yeah, if they're retarded, send them to the FAA. They're hiring.
00:18:53.000 My brother has Down syndrome.
00:18:54.000 He has held many jobs.
00:18:55.000 Yes.
00:18:56.000 He doesn't work well with others sometimes, so he's got to go through job to job, but yeah.
00:19:01.000 He's a greeter at Walmart?
00:19:03.000 No.
00:19:03.000 Oh, the dude can shred papers and file stuff?
00:19:05.000 He's got skills, man.
00:19:06.000 I tell you what, they need someone like him at the FBI. I can shred the papers.
00:19:11.000 Please do.
00:19:12.000 They call me Shredder.
00:19:13.000 Spirit Airlines, he'll sort some stuff out.
00:19:16.000 Yeah, like...
00:19:17.000 Sure, we're a nation that helps the most vulnerable among us.
00:19:21.000 I understand that.
00:19:22.000 And gives them an opportunity.
00:19:24.000 But it's an opportunity to get back into the bloodstream, to start providing for yourself.
00:19:28.000 That is not what Medicaid is.
00:19:30.000 That is not what our entitlement programs are.
00:19:32.000 And again, I need to be clear, it is nowhere in this bill.
00:19:35.000 But it should be.
00:19:37.000 Here's another truth.
00:19:39.000 Obamacare expanded Medicaid eligibility to basically the point of breaking it.
00:19:46.000 So it's not like this is a tradition.
00:19:48.000 People will say Social Security, it's been around.
00:19:50.000 Well, Medicaid has been around.
00:19:52.000 Medicaid as it exists now is not the same.
00:19:54.000 It's an abomination compared to what Medicaid was meant to be.
00:19:58.000 Again, if you create something and then entirely change the parameters, I think we should have a law.
00:20:03.000 You need to rename it.
00:20:04.000 Yes.
00:20:05.000 Especially, like, once the budget doubles, it needs a new name, so people don't think it's Medicaid anymore.
00:20:10.000 Transparent.
00:20:11.000 Yeah, just...
00:20:11.000 Mooch Care.
00:20:12.000 Yes, exactly.
00:20:13.000 Yes, Mooch Care.
00:20:14.000 Yes.
00:20:15.000 Thanks, Obama.
00:20:16.000 United Mooch Care.
00:20:18.000 Thanks, Obama.
00:20:19.000 Okay.
00:20:19.000 So Barack Obama increased the income eligibility threshold, meaning they said, okay, you have to be below poverty.
00:20:26.000 Here's the line.
00:20:27.000 They increased it to 138% of what used to be the federal poverty level.
00:20:32.000 Wow.
00:20:33.000 So before, states could decide and say, okay, if you are below this income level, you're entitled to Medicaid, we'll help you out.
00:20:40.000 So what happened with this is it massively increased the number of people who are enrolled in Medicaid.
00:20:46.000 You know, you pay for them.
00:20:46.000 It's your money, taxpayers, so you should decide.
00:20:48.000 21 million new people, or 22% of all beneficiaries.
00:20:55.000 Think about that.
00:20:56.000 They also ended state-conducted asset tests for eligibility, and what that means is that they only look, Medicaid only looks at basic income, not assets like owning property, if someone has actually accrued wealth, so it makes it far easier.
00:21:10.000 In other words, you can make more income than you used to make, and you still qualify.
00:21:14.000 You can own a house.
00:21:16.000 You can have investment.
00:21:18.000 That's fine.
00:21:19.000 You still get taxpayer dollars.
00:21:20.000 So you can have rich parents get, you know...
00:21:23.000 Inherit a house and cars and wealth and not work and then just collect free Medicaid?
00:21:30.000 And one can argue that that creates more opportunity for fraud.
00:21:33.000 Oh, that's right.
00:21:35.000 $230 to $500 billion a year in fraud.
00:21:39.000 That's not waste.
00:21:41.000 That's not overspending.
00:21:43.000 That's not bloat.
00:21:45.000 That's vapor.
00:21:46.000 We have no idea where $500 billion a year goes.
00:21:51.000 And we can't cut Twizzlers from Snap.
00:21:57.000 Make your own licorice.
00:21:59.000 You know what it is?
00:22:00.000 Doge is very popular right now.
00:22:01.000 People are going, oh my gosh.
00:22:03.000 And you know what?
00:22:03.000 The left knows that you can't turn this back.
00:22:06.000 They know that if the American public, that's why they bitch about mistrust in institutions, they know that if the American public says, well, hold on a second, yeah, that does seem really wasteful.
00:22:13.000 I do think that we need to be scaling this back.
00:22:15.000 Yeah, I do think that we need to go in and start auditing.
00:22:17.000 They know that once that happens, there's going to be a window of probably, Two decades where Americans, their set point and your set point, rightfully so, will be mistrust of the government because you saw it.
00:22:29.000 And so right now they're throwing up every single defense, increasingly dishonest ones, to try and stop you from looking.
00:22:37.000 They're really scared at anyone looking.
00:22:41.000 And there are quite a few reasons for that.
00:22:44.000 I just, I can't even, I can't even believe that we're not going to ask people to work.
00:22:48.000 I cannot believe that a third of this could go away if people would just work.
00:22:51.000 And I can't believe that they're so scared about the poverty level.
00:22:54.000 You said 138% of it.
00:22:55.000 Do you know why they did that?
00:22:56.000 Instead of just raising the poverty level to meet it so that they could do that, they said, no, no, no, no.
00:23:01.000 $27,000 a year for a family of three.
00:23:03.000 That's not much, right?
00:23:05.000 Right.
00:23:05.000 That's really low.
00:23:07.000 But if we raise it and just keep Medicare at the poverty level number, then that'll mean that there's more poor people on our watch than the American people might be.
00:23:13.000 It's math.
00:23:14.000 These people don't care about you.
00:23:16.000 They care about optics.
00:23:18.000 That is all they care about.
00:23:20.000 I worked at a comedy club in Kentucky, and there was a security guy, a door guy, that was disabled in a wheelchair.
00:23:28.000 And now I'm just thinking, how do you look at that guy and go, that's too hard.
00:23:33.000 Yeah.
00:23:35.000 I know.
00:23:36.000 That's too hard for me.
00:23:37.000 I think I'll let him do the heavy lifting and pay for my Medicaid.
00:23:42.000 Listen, you know, I'd qualify for disability.
00:23:45.000 You probably would.
00:23:46.000 People with rheumatoid arthritis.
00:23:47.000 I think a lot of people would.
00:23:48.000 I was saying that guy could have easily just not worked.
00:23:51.000 And I would be fine with that.
00:23:52.000 He's disabled.
00:23:53.000 I get it.
00:23:53.000 But he's like, no, I'm going to go work.
00:23:54.000 I'm going to make my own money.
00:23:56.000 And now he's subsidizing your lazy ass for sitting at home.
00:23:58.000 Well, Stephen has giant assicus, which definitely qualifies.
00:24:01.000 I do.
00:24:02.000 Is that what it's called?
00:24:02.000 Disability, yes.
00:24:03.000 It's a condition elephantitis of the balls is a close cousin.
00:24:05.000 I prefer Pretorian glutes.
00:24:08.000 You could have had a big butt.
00:24:10.000 You get the butt.
00:24:11.000 Sorry.
00:24:12.000 Thanks for pointing it out.
00:24:13.000 Sorry.
00:24:15.000 It points itself out, to be honest.
00:24:17.000 You don't have to rest a glass on it.
00:24:20.000 It's like a shelf.
00:24:22.000 No, I was notified.
00:24:23.000 You know you can qualify for disability.
00:24:24.000 I'm like, really?
00:24:25.000 Oh, wow.
00:24:25.000 So most of those people must be policies.
00:24:27.000 Now, this is also why they don't want you to look.
00:24:30.000 And we'll see what happens with Epstein, too.
00:24:32.000 We'll get to that.
00:24:33.000 But they don't want you to look because the Doge audit has revealed things that we expected, but quite a few things that we did not expect.
00:24:43.000 This time it involves a $17 million puppet show.
00:24:48.000 And the worst part is, this time it's not even Iraqi.
00:24:51.000 So Norm Eisen, he runs an NGO called State United Democracies Center.
00:25:00.000 State United Democracies Center.
00:25:02.000 Now that NGO accepts $17 million in private donations.
00:25:09.000 So I was researching.
00:25:12.000 What did they do?
00:25:14.000 Like, with 17 million dollars, I started researching, but the only thing I could find, and I wasn't digging, but the only thing that I found, they made a knockoff Muppet show.
00:25:28.000 All those famous people at the NGO, and the only thing they did with 17 million dollars was make a terrible Muppet show.
00:25:37.000 I know that sign.
00:25:39.000 I know what that sign was.
00:25:41.000 She censored her.
00:25:42.000 You know what?
00:25:43.000 People should not censor the deaf.
00:25:45.000 No, they shouldn't.
00:25:46.000 Come on, check your hearing privilege.
00:25:50.000 She didn't censor the sign language.
00:25:53.000 By the way, anyone else notice that her sign interpreter was quite cleavage-y?
00:25:58.000 I did not.
00:25:59.000 No, I did not.
00:25:59.000 Yes.
00:26:00.000 What?
00:26:00.000 She's wearing a...
00:26:01.000 You know, that's a good move if you want to distract people from your deafness.
00:26:07.000 Yeah, they're deaf, not blind.
00:26:08.000 Come on, lady.
00:26:09.000 You just bring in your signer.
00:26:10.000 Schwing!
00:26:11.000 Yeah.
00:26:13.000 She could be making stuff up.
00:26:14.000 That deaf lady may not even sign and no one would know because they're going, uh-huh.
00:26:19.000 What'd she say?
00:26:20.000 I don't know.
00:26:20.000 You complete me or some shit?
00:26:23.000 That was actually a data Republican who's done a lot of great work.
00:26:26.000 One of Doge's researchers.
00:26:28.000 And, you know, heart goes out to her because she was actually doxed by a leftist just a couple of days ago.
00:26:33.000 And that's got to suck because she'll never hear him coming.
00:26:41.000 And $17 million doesn't seem like a lot.
00:26:42.000 I understand that when we're talking about $500 billion in fraud.
00:26:45.000 Hold on, hold on.
00:26:46.000 I get it, but $17 million is a lot of dollars.
00:26:49.000 But then you add up a few million here for, again, puppets in Iraq.
00:26:52.000 You add up a few million here for LGBTQ education in Serbia.
00:26:57.000 You add it up.
00:26:58.000 And I don't care about the number.
00:27:00.000 I really don't.
00:27:02.000 We have to start with, is this an appropriate use of government power?
00:27:08.000 Does a puppet show to a non-profit, does that fall under the legitimate purview of government?
00:27:16.000 In other words, when people say, hey, we need to find some common ground.
00:27:19.000 You have libertarians all the way on one side.
00:27:22.000 You know, where they border on anarchy.
00:27:24.000 Okay.
00:27:24.000 And then you have, let's just say, Democrats.
00:27:27.000 Let's say you have communism all the way over here.
00:27:30.000 All right.
00:27:30.000 Where do we fall in finding common ground if we're conservative, libertarian, populist, Republican, traditional?
00:27:38.000 With an entire political wing that thinks it's a crime against humanity to examine, audit, and eliminate a $17 million puppet show.
00:27:51.000 Where are we going to find common ground?
00:27:53.000 You think we're going to find common ground on a work requirement for Medicaid?
00:27:57.000 You didn't want to get rid of the puppet show!
00:28:00.000 And just so you know how crappy a puppet show is, When it costs $17 million going through a government entity and then an NGO and a non-profit.
00:28:11.000 I know you're wondering, how bad is this puppet show?
00:28:14.000 It's gotta be bad, right?
00:28:15.000 Here, this bad.
00:28:17.000 How does Michigan make sure elections are safe, secure, and accurate?
00:28:21.000 This entire certification process is overseen by the Michigan Board of State Canvassers.
00:28:27.000 Every cast ballot is secured, tracked, and put under strict chain of custody rules.
00:28:33.000 In Pennsylvania, bipartisan poll watchers and both parties oversee the ballot counting process.
00:28:40.000 $17 million.
00:28:42.000 We've done better.
00:28:44.000 By the way, just so you know, About 147 subscribers on YouTube.
00:28:51.000 147 subscribers.
00:28:52.000 Who are those people?
00:28:54.000 What's the ad share on that?
00:28:56.000 What's the monetization?
00:28:58.000 Tens of views.
00:29:00.000 Your tax dollars at work.
00:29:01.000 $17 million.
00:29:04.000 That's one made out of human hair.
00:29:07.000 Yes, they were.
00:29:08.000 And they were humans who had to be harvested.
00:29:11.000 That's a lot of money.
00:29:12.000 Right next to Elon Musk's next babies.
00:29:16.000 Ashley?
00:29:16.000 Hey, she's not a lab.
00:29:18.000 This is...
00:29:19.000 This is...
00:29:21.000 Well, actually, we do have a direct contrast, apples to apples.
00:29:24.000 To show you how ridiculous $17 million is for a puppet show, you know, we have actually done quite a few installments that involve puppets.
00:29:32.000 We do not have $17 million for each singular puppet show.
00:29:37.000 And we pretty much have done it in our spare time.
00:29:39.000 Less money.
00:29:41.000 Hi, I'm Josh Feierstein.
00:29:43.000 And I'm PJ! I'm here to share today's woke word of the day!
00:29:49.000 That's right.
00:29:50.000 And today's word is a really fun word.
00:29:52.000 It's trigger warning.
00:29:54.000 Trigger warning?
00:29:56.000 Yeah, trigger warning is like when you're hanging out with your buddies or your friends out in the field and you're all hanging out about to get your stuff done and then someone goes, Rage Hawk!
00:30:04.000 Weapons hot!
00:30:04.000 What the f***?
00:30:07.000 The f***?
00:30:08.000 That's what you say.
00:30:09.000 Are you trying to blow all my eardrums?
00:30:11.000 No, I was just letting you know.
00:30:12.000 What the f*** is wrong with you?
00:30:14.000 F***ing C*** ass S*** my dick I mean, I wouldn't I wouldn't pay 17 million for it But, you know, I'd pay the price of admission You'd get tens of views on it We could get more than 147 subscribers.
00:30:34.000 Just like that.
00:30:35.000 I mean, right now, more people have seen it than all of the other $17 million puppet shows combined.
00:30:40.000 I found out this morning that I wasn't supposed to actually suck him.
00:30:43.000 Yes, well, I know, yeah.
00:30:44.000 You're coughing up fur balls for a week.
00:30:46.000 Really quickly, I want to go back.
00:30:50.000 You mentioned that this person was doxxed.
00:30:51.000 So apparently, doxxed, sorry.
00:30:54.000 Yeah, doxxed.
00:30:54.000 Apparently, the New York Times felt that it was necessary to publish the names and faces of 45 of the Doge employees.
00:31:02.000 It's necessary.
00:31:04.000 It's something that the American people need to see.
00:31:06.000 As much hatred and vitriol that's being pushed at these people who, by God, are just doing an audit and going in there and seeing we're waste, fraud, abuse, and you not working when you're supposed to be working from home.
00:31:15.000 They thought, well, yeah, the American people need to know the names and the faces of these individuals.
00:31:20.000 And so we're the paper of record, I guess.
00:31:22.000 Yeah, the left is evil.
00:31:24.000 The left is evil.
00:31:26.000 Here, do something with this.
00:31:27.000 I think it was today that they did that.
00:31:29.000 I think it was today.
00:31:30.000 They're angry at the people who are saying, hey, yeah, we ran the numbers.
00:31:33.000 It seems like there's fraud there.
00:31:34.000 They're angry at those people and not the people who've engaged in fraud.
00:31:38.000 Yes.
00:31:39.000 The left is evil.
00:31:40.000 No common ground with evil.
00:31:42.000 I'm sorry.
00:31:43.000 This is not Republican, Democrat.
00:31:44.000 It's evil.
00:31:44.000 Comment below if that's where you are.
00:31:47.000 And I believe that these people deserve no quarter.
00:31:50.000 We're actually going to lay out some parameters because of people like Jake Tapper.
00:31:53.000 He inspired it.
00:31:54.000 You have a lot of Johnny-come-latelys who now try and get themselves into the fold with conservatives.
00:32:00.000 Okay, you have to publicly apologize.
00:32:03.000 And you have to list the damage that you have done.
00:32:07.000 There has to be some kind of restitution for it, and you have to tell us why you have changed.
00:32:10.000 There needs to be no quarter for anyone who is engaged in the agreed-upon lies that we have had to live through.
00:32:17.000 The agreed-upon lie that was COVID. And that we had to lock down.
00:32:21.000 Cuomo.
00:32:21.000 And that we had to shut down businesses.
00:32:23.000 And the mRNA injection.
00:32:24.000 The agreed upon lie of the election.
00:32:26.000 The agreed upon lie that men and women aren't a thing anymore.
00:32:30.000 The agreed upon lie that government is out to serve you.
00:32:35.000 The agreed upon lie that you need to trust your institutions.
00:32:38.000 The agreed upon lie that any mistrust is actually a conspiracy theory.
00:32:44.000 The agreed upon lie...
00:32:46.000 That media is unbiased.
00:32:48.000 Anyone who has taken part in these giant agreed-upon lies, it's not a conspiracy theory, it's not even a conspiracy.
00:32:55.000 We have lived through agreed-upon lies.
00:32:58.000 There needs to be no mercy, no quarter, and no forgetting what they put you through.
00:33:05.000 They're evil.
00:33:07.000 That's my report, Captain.
00:33:08.000 Yes, Gerald?
00:33:09.000 No, no, I was going to say, Jake Tapper, what he needs to do is all the things that you said, and in the book that he is apparently co-authoring, There needs to be a chapter on what he did to cover up Biden's mental decline.
00:33:21.000 You cannot be a person who's involved in the cover-up and then write a book as though you just discovered it.
00:33:25.000 Right.
00:33:26.000 I'm going to get to the States United Democracy Center, but by the way, if you're watching right now, download the Rumble app.
00:33:31.000 That's the best way to stay in touch.
00:33:33.000 You only get notifications when we are live.
00:33:37.000 And you can get it on your TV. It's seamless.
00:33:40.000 Rumble, we own live.
00:33:42.000 YouTube is dead.
00:33:42.000 Right now, they are talking about Doge, and they said that the EPA could be looking at 65% in cuts.
00:33:48.000 I'm just willing to bet by the haircut, left.
00:33:52.000 Let's see.
00:33:53.000 ...the Clean Water Act Amendment, the Clean Water Act Amendment, the Safe Drinking Water Act.
00:33:56.000 We do what...
00:33:57.000 What Congress dictates by law that we need to do, and EPA is an implementing agency to protect all of us.
00:34:07.000 That's the important thing to remember.
00:34:10.000 Government personified.
00:34:11.000 I've dealt with the EPA. But they make sure that water works fine, right Flint?
00:34:16.000 That's fine, right?
00:34:18.000 Yeah, so that seems like a noble thing, and that's how they package this stuff.
00:34:21.000 I've dealt with these people intimately at the county and the state and even the township level up in Ohio.
00:34:27.000 It is a nightmare.
00:34:29.000 Not only is it a nightmare, it's a system that's gamed all the time.
00:34:32.000 You've created an entire black market for people to get around EPA regulations because they're stupid, they're onerous, and the people that have those jobs don't even know the code.
00:34:41.000 I've had to tell them and their lawyers, here's the code!
00:34:45.000 Show me the part where you're talking about!
00:34:47.000 And they couldn't do it.
00:34:48.000 It's always the same thing.
00:34:49.000 We exist to serve.
00:34:50.000 We exist to protect.
00:34:51.000 We exist to help the American...
00:34:52.000 Really?
00:34:52.000 Okay.
00:34:53.000 Well...
00:34:53.000 Just ask one follow-up, CNN. So, where do you think the $500 billion a year in fraud is taking place?
00:35:01.000 Ask them that.
00:35:03.000 Not one will answer.
00:35:05.000 Let's go back to my old high school gym teacher.
00:35:09.000 I do like the Bose headphones, though.
00:35:13.000 She's doing fine.
00:35:14.000 Where those efforts are not as important as others.
00:35:17.000 I'm not suggesting that EPA is perfect, but what I am suggesting is that there needs to be a thoughtful process to recognize what is the EPA, what is our task to do, and how do we deliver that task in the most cost-effective way.
00:35:34.000 What do they do here?
00:35:35.000 You know what?
00:35:36.000 That's a good question.
00:35:37.000 What were you doing for the last 55 years?
00:35:40.000 EPA created, I know Nixon, was it 1970s?
00:35:43.000 Somewhere in the early 70s.
00:35:44.000 What were you doing for over 50 years?
00:35:46.000 You only have a problem.
00:35:47.000 And by the way, no one's saying completely eliminate.
00:35:49.000 You're saying you may face 65% in cuts.
00:35:55.000 It's not perfect.
00:35:56.000 Hey, we think it's about 65% imperfect.
00:35:58.000 Yes.
00:35:59.000 By the way, she was climate advisor to Biden.
00:36:01.000 Oh, wonderful.
00:36:02.000 So I guess I understand where she lines up on stuff.
00:36:04.000 Yeah, I can imagine.
00:36:05.000 She's not just like, hey, let's make sure we manage these resources well.
00:36:07.000 She's like, it's an existential threat!
00:36:09.000 Well, here's the thing.
00:36:10.000 Watch her right now.
00:36:11.000 Who, Mrs. Magoo?
00:36:12.000 Yes, exactly.
00:36:13.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:36:14.000 Everything goes wrong around her.
00:36:16.000 She's just driving her car.
00:36:17.000 Everyone else is burning alive, getting Final Destination.
00:36:20.000 We're in and down.
00:36:22.000 Wiggly, wiggly.
00:36:23.000 Must be in the environment.
00:36:26.000 Must be the climate change.
00:36:30.000 She's the kind of person who you know would Uber in her off time and hotbox the car right before you get in.
00:36:38.000 That's disgusting.
00:36:39.000 Go outside and look at her.
00:36:42.000 This is a perfect tie-in to the United...
00:36:45.000 Or sorry, States United Democracy Center, that puppet show.
00:36:48.000 Okay.
00:36:48.000 Because you'll see what happens.
00:36:50.000 They try and fend everyone off before you get in and audit something.
00:36:53.000 So, the States United Democracy Center is a non-profit.
00:36:56.000 It's dedicated to election monitoring and, quote, promoting truth in elections.
00:37:01.000 So, the SUDC receives almost 100% of their funding from donations, but the donors are listed as restricted on the IRS filings.
00:37:11.000 So the IRS, they know the donors, you don't.
00:37:13.000 Let me give you some of the leaders here when we're talking about a $17 million puppet show and if these leaders or board members should know better.
00:37:20.000 You have ex-New Jersey Governor Christy Todd Whitman.
00:37:24.000 You have ex-RNC Chairman Michael WhatUpSteel.
00:37:27.000 You have former Bush administration official Tom Ridge, former Obama administration official Janet Napolitano, and its director.
00:37:35.000 Let me see what's going on on CNN right now.
00:37:38.000 This person out there talking about the EPA. And they just seem like someone who might be objective.
00:37:43.000 The director of this NGO is a lawyer named Norm Eisen.
00:37:49.000 So a $17 million puppet show from this organization.
00:37:52.000 The director is lawyer Norm Eisen.
00:37:55.000 Now you might be saying, hey, that name sounds familiar.
00:37:59.000 Well, you may recognize this person who in no way has a vested interest in continuing government fraud.
00:38:05.000 We've gone to court again and again at State Democracy Defenders Fund filing the very first lawsuit saying Doge was illegal.
00:38:14.000 What you're seeing is a shock and awe assault on the foundations of our democracy with all of these unconstitutional and illegal actions.
00:38:25.000 There was an attempted shock and awe campaign by Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and Doge to take over the government and bend it to their will.
00:38:35.000 So this guy goes out and says, auditing is criminal.
00:38:39.000 This is un-American.
00:38:41.000 Why would you want to audit?
00:38:42.000 17 million public shows?
00:38:43.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:38:43.000 Greenlit.
00:38:44.000 That's what this guy is doing.
00:38:46.000 This organization?
00:38:47.000 Okay.
00:38:48.000 $17.5 million in revenue in 2023. All references available.
00:38:52.000 Okay.
00:38:53.000 $11 million in expenses that include...
00:38:55.000 $2 million in compensation to the board, the people who we just mentioned.
00:38:58.000 $5 million in other salaries, wages.
00:39:00.000 $1 million in legal and accounting fees.
00:39:02.000 This is the cycle.
00:39:03.000 You have someone like Norm Eisen.
00:39:05.000 You entrench yourself in the government.
00:39:06.000 He's worked with Obama.
00:39:08.000 He was co-counseling Trump impeachment.
00:39:10.000 You can look at his history.
00:39:11.000 Entrench yourself in the government.
00:39:13.000 Be a founder of some bogus non-profit.
00:39:15.000 Use it to funnel money.
00:39:18.000 Then stop any type of investigation.
00:39:20.000 Doge tries to investigate the fraud.
00:39:22.000 So this man uses the funds and influence.
00:39:25.000 That he basically accrued through the fraud to try and block and shut down Doge investigations.
00:39:33.000 At what point do people need to be hauled out in cuffs?
00:39:36.000 That's a genuine question.
00:39:37.000 Comment below.
00:39:38.000 At what point do these people get fitted for an orange jumpsuit?
00:39:41.000 I'm not convinced that this $17 million puppet show creating organization is not...
00:39:46.000 I'm not convinced it's not a terrorist front.
00:39:49.000 And neither, by the way, is even former president.
00:39:52.000 George W. Bush, who's doing more in retirement than these assholes.
00:39:58.000 I hope he finds him.
00:40:08.000 Absolutely.
00:40:09.000 It's exceedingly difficult if he's in the candy cane forest.
00:40:12.000 Well, he didn't find Bin Laden, but my hopes are high.
00:40:16.000 Yes.
00:40:16.000 We'll see how it goes.
00:40:19.000 Where are you, little prick?
00:40:20.000 By the way, so we just launched the Trump collection on CrowderShop.com.
00:40:23.000 Go to CrowderShop.com right now.
00:40:25.000 Order by March 7th and you'll get it before St. Patrick's Day.
00:40:28.000 This is one of the coolest.
00:40:29.000 I wore a version of this to the national championship game.
00:40:32.000 Don't say anything.
00:40:32.000 And I got stopped like 10 times for people who didn't even know the show.
00:40:35.000 They just thought it was a really cool shirt.
00:40:37.000 So grab yourself one of these.
00:40:38.000 It's the fight like hell version that we just did.
00:40:40.000 Yeah.
00:40:40.000 And you get $6 off any order with promo code Irish.
00:40:44.000 And you don't have to be a Notre Dame fan, but it helps.
00:40:47.000 This is a Trump fan, and when you go get sauced on St. Patrick's Day, drink responsibly.
00:40:51.000 Least effective fighting stance ever.
00:40:54.000 It's not true.
00:40:55.000 It's a dancing stance.
00:40:56.000 Great match.
00:40:56.000 Well, right after you break me wrists in me completely unbalanced, powerless stance.
00:41:03.000 Hold on, let me get drunk.
00:41:04.000 That's right.
00:41:05.000 That's actually how I came up with the stance.
00:41:07.000 I was drunk.
00:41:07.000 I thought, what's the best way to position my hands so they can't protect my face and they're not ready to throw a punch of their own?
00:41:13.000 No, no, no, no.
00:41:14.000 You're drinking, not fighting.
00:41:16.000 Drinking, drinking.
00:41:17.000 That still doesn't make sense.
00:41:19.000 I'm more of a kicker.
00:41:21.000 I tell you what, though, it's not as dumb as an entire country of people, Canada.
00:41:25.000 So, it's okay.
00:41:29.000 I can say it because I'm half Canadian.
00:41:31.000 I was raised there, to be clear.
00:41:34.000 I was born in the States.
00:41:35.000 My mom was French Canadian.
00:41:36.000 I was raised there.
00:41:37.000 And I know a lot of you are thinking, hey, do you have, like, is there any part of you that's proud of being Canadian?
00:41:42.000 No.
00:41:44.000 No.
00:41:45.000 Not even a little bit.
00:41:46.000 There's no part of me that is proud to be half a nation that keeps the Queen on its money.
00:41:53.000 I mean, it's hard to reprint money, I guess.
00:41:56.000 I guess.
00:41:58.000 And we've talked about this and we've joked about Canada, but seriously, Canada shouldn't exist.
00:42:03.000 I mean that.
00:42:04.000 Canada really shouldn't exist as a country.
00:42:06.000 It's a disreputable place.
00:42:08.000 It's a place right now that has become unworthy of respect.
00:42:12.000 And I think that there needs to be some reform.
00:42:15.000 Namely, a 51st state.
00:42:17.000 So, yesterday, and I watched all of this from pillar to post.
00:42:21.000 That's maybe also why I didn't sleep.
00:42:23.000 This happened last night.
00:42:25.000 Former Justin Trudeau lieutenant, her name is Chrystia Freeland.
00:42:29.000 It's kind of like a primary in Canada for those seeking control of the Liberal Party when Trudeau steps down.
00:42:37.000 And so, we're going to show you some clips, and some of it is surprisingly alarming.
00:42:42.000 But again, this lady seems like she's the front-runner because she worked with Trudeau.
00:42:46.000 here's an introduction.
00:42:47.000 I'm sorry, right clip here.
00:42:54.000 Here's the other clip.
00:42:55.000 Welcome to special coverage of tonight's Liberal Leadership Debate.
00:42:58.000 I'm David Cochran in Ottawa, and in just 15 minutes, candidates vying to become Liberal leader, and very likely Canada's next Prime Minister, will face off in the second and final...
00:43:09.000 There are four candidates.
00:43:10.000 Frank Bailiss, Mark Kearney, Christian Freeland, and Karina Gould.
00:43:13.000 They are set to take the stage in Montreal.
00:43:15.000 Tonight, they debate in English.
00:43:17.000 Last night, they debated...
00:43:19.000 What we will see, though, is because they're all speaking in their mother tongue in English, we'll see much more comfortable people, much more confident people, and people that can speak really, you know, powerfully about their policy ideas.
00:43:31.000 So I think that's a given.
00:43:32.000 It will be a better debate.
00:43:34.000 Now, remember, this lady who seems she's poised to seize control of the Liberal Party there in Canada, Freeland, in 2022, gleefully doubled down on freezing.
00:43:47.000 The truckers, the protesters, bank accounts.
00:43:49.000 Here's what authoritarianism looks like.
00:43:51.000 Okay, so my follow-up is in two parts then.
00:43:54.000 So you're confirming that accounts have been frozen, both personal and corporate, but you're not releasing the information.
00:43:59.000 The names of both individuals and entities, as well as crypto wallets, have been shared by the RCMP with financial institutions.
00:44:12.000 And accounts have been frozen.
00:44:16.000 And more accounts will be frozen.
00:44:19.000 How was this not revolution in Canada?
00:44:23.000 It's a subservient people.
00:44:24.000 It's a submissive subservient people.
00:44:26.000 Because you were protesting.
00:44:27.000 You froze bank accounts.
00:44:28.000 You got rid of GoFundMe accounts.
00:44:29.000 And you went after crypto wallets.
00:44:32.000 The one thing that's supposed to be independent of all of this.
00:44:35.000 Hey, you don't like that the United States is a nation of guns?
00:44:38.000 That's why.
00:44:38.000 Yep.
00:44:39.000 If you're not a nation of guns, you become a nation where the government brags about freezing your accounts and assets for the wrong opinion.
00:44:46.000 And you don't even need to go to Venezuela.
00:44:48.000 You parked your truck somewhere and they're like, well, I guess you're not going to eat.
00:44:51.000 And in watching this, it really was emblematic of kind of the rest of the world and the tariffs and where we find ourselves as Americans.
00:44:58.000 It was a bunch of Canadians trying to justify the existence of a country that would never exist at any point in history if not for the United States.
00:45:08.000 And it made me, if anything, emboldened.
00:45:11.000 It undergirded the idea that the United States not only doesn't need Canada, but until Canada starts sharing our values and until they start taking our best interests into consideration, Canada needs to be punished, and not just because they borderline threatened to use nukes.
00:45:29.000 It's time for No Canada.
00:45:30.000 All right.
00:45:38.000 Here's the first claim you heard in this debate.
00:45:41.000 So dismissive.
00:45:41.000 *cough* That President Trump, this is what they're saying in Canada, is Canada's greatest challenge.
00:45:51.000 A few weeks ago in Saskatoon, I met a four-year-old girl named Ari.
00:45:57.000 She asked me, can you stop Trump from invading Canada?
00:46:02.000 Ari is a smart girl, and she's asking the right question.
00:46:07.000 You can't.
00:46:08.000 I'm running to the leader of the Liberal Party and the next Prime Minister of Canada because Trump is posing the gravest challenge our country has faced since the Second World War.
00:46:20.000 Yeah, in case you didn't know, she's a feminist who deals in hyperbole.
00:46:24.000 That statement, by the way, was made immediately before she was backhanded by a red-pilled moose.
00:46:28.000 And that was, yeah.
00:46:32.000 Tate traveled quickly.
00:46:33.000 I love Tate moose.
00:46:36.000 Here's the truth.
00:46:40.000 Canada has had way graver challenges than Donald Trump.
00:46:45.000 And I want you to just take a bird's eye view here.
00:46:49.000 Since World War II, you had the Quebec separatist crisis, you had the biker wars that took place in the 1990s, you had the terror bombing.
00:46:57.000 That had taken place, I believe, somewhere in the 1980s, also not winning any Stanley Cup since 1993. But more importantly, the gravest challenges that Canada has faced, that's since World War II, but you can include World War II. You can include any global conflict.
00:47:12.000 As a matter of fact, any global conflict, shortage, pandemic, catastrophe, or emergency is an extinction-level threat for Canada every single time, if not for the United States.
00:47:24.000 That's your gravest challenge, Canada.
00:47:28.000 Historians will look back on Canada and they'll...
00:47:32.000 How did this exist?
00:47:36.000 Top one or two biggest countries as far as land mass and no way to defend it?
00:47:41.000 They must not have had any desirable resources, right?
00:47:43.000 Oh, they did?
00:47:44.000 Rich in natural resources?
00:47:47.000 How close in proximity to...
00:47:49.000 If Russia came across...
00:47:50.000 Oh, the United States!
00:47:54.000 Oh, that makes sense.
00:47:56.000 Nowhere else would a nation like Canada still exist.
00:47:59.000 It would be conquered, and they would be speaking, you know, whatever.
00:48:03.000 Take the Mongols, take the Ottomans.
00:48:05.000 They should be speaking American.
00:48:06.000 They still speak French.
00:48:08.000 It's silly.
00:48:08.000 It's a goofy, silly place.
00:48:10.000 And by the way, now Canada, even today, is still facing far worse challenges than Donald Trump, but they believe their job is virtue signaling.
00:48:17.000 The real challenges that Canada faces, okay?
00:48:20.000 A tanking economy.
00:48:21.000 Canada would be the fourth poorest state.
00:48:24.000 In the United States.
00:48:25.000 Jeez.
00:48:26.000 They have a housing crisis.
00:48:27.000 Canada is short by about three and a half million housing units.
00:48:32.000 Their population is a tenth the size of the United States.
00:48:35.000 They have an immigration disaster, despite what they will tell you.
00:48:38.000 Even Trudeau, Prime Minister Trudeau had to reverse course because of how bad immigration has become.
00:48:43.000 I'm sorry, right clip.
00:48:50.000 Here's the other one.
00:48:52.000 Immigration.
00:48:53.000 Let's talk about it.
00:48:54.000 In the last two years, our population has grown really fast, like baby boom fast.
00:49:00.000 Increasingly, bad actors like fake colleges and big chain corporations have been exploiting our immigration system for their own interests.
00:49:07.000 So we're doing something major.
00:49:08.000 We're reducing the numbers of immigrants that will come to Canada for the next three years.
00:49:14.000 Today, I'm going to let you in on what happened, where we made some mistakes, and why we're taking this big turn.
00:49:21.000 How many takes do you think they had to do because they kept saying, I'm going to let you in on me?
00:49:25.000 Oh.
00:49:27.000 At least three.
00:49:28.000 At least.
00:49:29.000 We just have to admonish you.
00:49:30.000 Actually, that's not former Prime Minister.
00:49:33.000 It's Governor.
00:49:34.000 This comes directly from the White House, so we have to respect the office.
00:49:38.000 Sorry, respect the office.
00:49:39.000 You can admonish me.
00:49:41.000 Governor Trudeau.
00:49:42.000 He's the former leader of the Liberal Party.
00:49:45.000 It's a transition period.
00:49:46.000 Okay, fine.
00:49:48.000 I'll take that.
00:49:50.000 So, Canada faces many grave dangers, many grave challenges, namely all of them if they don't have the help of the United States, and they face far worse internal crises right now.
00:50:01.000 Why is that not the focus?
00:50:02.000 Because the left, just like Amy Klobuchar listing her five accomplished tasks last week, including standing up to Russia, they believe their profession is largely centered around virtue signaling.
00:50:14.000 And their virtue signaling is largely centered around hating you.
00:50:19.000 Got it?
00:50:20.000 They're evil.
00:50:20.000 Here's another claim.
00:50:22.000 That certainly sounded alarm bells for me that Canada will form a nuclear-powered alliance specifically to counter the United States.
00:50:32.000 Doesn't sound like a good neighbor.
00:50:33.000 What is different about this unleashed and empowered President Trump?
00:50:39.000 Is he is clearly threatening our sovereignty.
00:50:43.000 You have no sovereignty.
00:50:44.000 We need to respond.
00:50:45.000 And so what Canada needs to do is work closely with our democratic allies, our military allies.
00:50:52.000 And be someone else.
00:50:52.000 I've been foreign minister.
00:50:53.000 I know how to do that.
00:50:55.000 That's why I would start with our Nordic partners, specifically Denmark, which is also being threatened, and our European NATO allies.
00:51:02.000 I would be sure that France and Britain were there who possess nuclear weapons and I would be working urgently With those partners to build a closer security relationship That guarantees our security in a time when the United States can be a threat Them sounds like fighting words to me.
00:51:28.000 Yeah, I Sounds like a single mom looking for a new baby daddy.
00:51:30.000 Country, by the way, that by the way, that has no nukes.
00:51:50.000 Do you have any idea what it's like to deal with barbarian?
00:51:52.000 And by the way, not pro-rape.
00:51:54.000 What I'm saying is, have you looked at actual empires?
00:51:57.000 You know, the kinds of nations that the United States isn't, who would look at your country as nothing more than an opportunity.
00:52:04.000 All this talking tough, and I'm a strong independent, goes out the window when you are dealing with a monster.
00:52:11.000 You know who knows how to deal with a monster?
00:52:13.000 Someone like Donald Trump.
00:52:15.000 Not you, because you think that you're threatened.
00:52:18.000 By the United States nukes?
00:52:20.000 Well, you think we're going to nuke Canada?
00:52:22.000 Here's the truth.
00:52:23.000 It wouldn't work anyway, sweetheart.
00:52:26.000 The United States military would outmatch all of the countries that you mentioned combined.
00:52:33.000 Let's look at just the number of nukes to start.
00:52:35.000 The United States has well over 5,200.
00:52:37.000 France, the next closest on the list of the countries she met, 290. UK, 225. She mentioned Denmark, zero.
00:52:47.000 And they want to ally with Canada.
00:52:48.000 Also, zero.
00:52:49.000 By the way, you're trying to turn one of our friends against us with the UK? Yeah.
00:52:53.000 It's one of our strongest allies?
00:52:54.000 Let's look at the next important piece.
00:52:56.000 Aircraft carriers.
00:52:57.000 The United States has 11. UK, two.
00:53:01.000 France, you know, just in third, one.
00:53:03.000 Denmark, again, zero.
00:53:04.000 Canada, again, zero.
00:53:06.000 They got some snowmobiles, though.
00:53:08.000 Yeah, Denmark.
00:53:09.000 That's good for something.
00:53:11.000 I don't know if these people in Canada believe it.
00:53:15.000 But even if they did, hey, there's nothing you can do.
00:53:18.000 Let's look at the active military personnel.
00:53:20.000 The United States, 1.3 million people.
00:53:23.000 France, next on that, 380,000.
00:53:26.000 UK, 148,000.
00:53:29.000 Denmark, 16,000.
00:53:32.000 Canada, 107,000.
00:53:37.000 107...
00:53:37.000 Thousand.
00:53:38.000 So let me do some math.
00:53:40.000 This is why I say Canada is a very silly place, and I know a lot of you may be Canadian right now.
00:53:44.000 This is not insulting you, the Canadian citizen.
00:53:46.000 It is your government.
00:53:47.000 But yeah, you know what?
00:53:48.000 You need to do something about your country.
00:53:50.000 We had a revolution.
00:53:51.000 You keep the queen on your money.
00:53:53.000 Canada has no sovereignty.
00:53:54.000 You have the queen on your money because you didn't have the revolution that we did, and you exist because we allow you to exist.
00:54:02.000 Okay?
00:54:03.000 Let's look at...
00:54:05.000 The number of troops right there, right?
00:54:07.000 I just gave it to you.
00:54:07.000 It's about 107,000 in Canada.
00:54:10.000 Let's average it out per square mile.
00:54:12.000 So in the United States, you have about one active military member.
00:54:16.000 It's about the ratio.
00:54:17.000 Let me know when we did the math.
00:54:18.000 It's 0.359.
00:54:20.000 Okay, 0.359.
00:54:21.000 You're talking about troops per square mile.
00:54:23.000 Canada, 0.027.
00:54:26.000 That means the United States has 13 times more troops per square mile.
00:54:31.000 Do you understand that?
00:54:32.000 Here's the thing.
00:54:33.000 There have been nations.
00:54:35.000 That are very small and inconsequential, and they haven't been conquered.
00:54:42.000 And there have been nations that are relatively large, but they haven't been conquered because they have a strong military or they don't really have a bunch of desirable resources.
00:54:51.000 There has never been a nation as large as Canada, physically as desirable.
00:54:58.000 That has not been conquered and is completely unprotected.
00:55:02.000 Canada is the least defended modern country ever.
00:55:09.000 Ever!
00:55:11.000 And they want to talk tough.
00:55:12.000 It's delusional.
00:55:14.000 And here's something.
00:55:14.000 We're going to get to the trade deficit, too.
00:55:16.000 If you watch this debate, you can copy-paste it to anywhere else in the world.
00:55:22.000 They have no cards to play.
00:55:24.000 Just like the left doesn't have any cards to play.
00:55:27.000 It's all...
00:55:28.000 Bluster.
00:55:29.000 The rest of the world right now is a toddler screaming before bedtime.
00:55:33.000 But they're going to be put down.
00:55:35.000 Figuratively, I'm not talking about nuking any place.
00:55:38.000 Like she was potentially.
00:55:39.000 And by the way, if you're talking tough, and you're talking about forming an alliance, why would you start with Denmark?
00:55:47.000 Right.
00:55:48.000 17,000 troops, no carriers, no nukes.
00:55:52.000 You're basically bringing on another liability.
00:55:55.000 She's trying to lump people in to what she is thinking as a victim.
00:55:58.000 Like, oh, they're threatening Denmark.
00:56:00.000 We didn't threaten Denmark.
00:56:00.000 Put them at the bottom of the list.
00:56:02.000 Put them at the bottom of the list and put France at the top.
00:56:04.000 Can you imagine France is the top of your strong polled list for news?
00:56:08.000 Well, here's the other thing, too.
00:56:09.000 They're talking about, oh, okay.
00:56:11.000 All right.
00:56:12.000 Canada's not a good neighbor.
00:56:14.000 Let me be clear to you about this.
00:56:16.000 They're trying to say, I can't believe that Donald Trump would treat us this way when we are their most reliable neighbor.
00:56:20.000 No.
00:56:21.000 No, you're not.
00:56:22.000 You're the kind of neighbor who just leaf blows into my yard and you know full well what you do.
00:56:26.000 Also, we have only two.
00:56:27.000 Yes.
00:56:28.000 We have only two and the other one is having a siesta.
00:56:31.000 Yes, exactly.
00:56:32.000 The cartels could take out the Canada military.
00:56:35.000 Let me show you how bad of a neighbor Canada is.
00:56:37.000 And by the way, this includes, this can be extended to pretty much the rest of the world.
00:56:43.000 That's why we're fed up.
00:56:45.000 Canada then starts discussing in this debate, and I believe that Trudeau also echoed this.
00:56:50.000 You know what?
00:56:51.000 We're a good neighbor.
00:56:53.000 We're going to honor the contract of NATO and hit our target spending really soon.
00:56:59.000 Canada fully expects to reach NATO's 2% of GDP spending target by 2032. Okay, so we're looking 2032?
00:57:11.000 So you mean in almost a decade, you're going to start honoring the contract?
00:57:18.000 That always required you to do it?
00:57:23.000 That's a good neighbor?
00:57:24.000 It takes time to get there.
00:57:25.000 And we have this clip somewhere, the euthanization clip, do you have it, regarding the Canadian military?
00:57:30.000 Even if Canada was going to finally start...
00:57:32.000 It's an overlay.
00:57:32.000 It's an overlay?
00:57:33.000 Yeah.
00:57:33.000 Canada, by the way, they value their military so much that they would sooner euthanize troops, veterans, euthanize veterans, rather than pay for their care.
00:57:43.000 We have an overlay.
00:57:44.000 Oh, yeah, it's overlay 810 euthanize.
00:57:46.000 That's part of their program there.
00:57:47.000 Because they're loving and caring.
00:57:49.000 They're made programmed.
00:57:50.000 Do you remember that?
00:57:51.000 Medically assisted?
00:57:52.000 Yeah.
00:57:52.000 I don't even know the rest of it, but either way, they kill you.
00:57:55.000 It's insane.
00:57:56.000 No, no, no.
00:57:56.000 Let's not give them therapy.
00:57:58.000 You know, let's not give them medicine.
00:58:01.000 Yeah.
00:58:01.000 Let's just kill them.
00:58:03.000 Yeah.
00:58:04.000 Medically assisted induced death.
00:58:06.000 Right.
00:58:07.000 Induced death.
00:58:08.000 The old suicide box.
00:58:09.000 Why do you have to be made?
00:58:10.000 Well, enough veterans are killing themselves.
00:58:12.000 Why don't we just do it ourselves?
00:58:13.000 Yeah.
00:58:14.000 You know, that'll buy us some time as we hit our agreed-upon contract of military spending by 2032. I was wrong.
00:58:22.000 It's medical assistance in dying.
00:58:24.000 Ah, there we go.
00:58:25.000 We did have a video when we covered the MAID program when they rolled that out like a year ago or something like that.
00:58:30.000 It was a vet who needed a wheelchair, I believe.
00:58:33.000 Yeah.
00:58:34.000 Yep.
00:58:34.000 And they're like, they literally, they were like, they got the form that said, I need a wheelchair, and they said, have you considered killing yourself?
00:58:40.000 Yep.
00:58:42.000 It's a whole problem.
00:58:45.000 Sometimes there's no ramps.
00:58:46.000 Yeah.
00:58:47.000 I mean, you gotta build your arm strength up, and you gotta get a special car.
00:58:52.000 It sucks.
00:58:53.000 Just die.
00:58:53.000 Yep.
00:58:54.000 And they can't take him to the fireworks.
00:58:57.000 We don't have wheelchairs, sorry.
00:58:59.000 Let me change that.
00:59:00.000 And this is what Donald Trump has been pointing out with trade and with deficits in the United States being exploited.
00:59:05.000 And I know it's really hard for people to understand that the United States has been exploited when we're the wealthiest country in existence and the most powerful country in existence.
00:59:14.000 So you kind of look past that.
00:59:16.000 The left always views champion as bad and underdog as good.
00:59:20.000 That's why they support places like Palestine.
00:59:23.000 That's why they support LGBT no matter what, regardless of morality, even when they start beating up women.
00:59:30.000 That's how they view the world.
00:59:31.000 Well, if you have less, you must be in the moral right.
00:59:35.000 Okay.
00:59:35.000 The United States has been exploited.
00:59:37.000 Let me pause on something here.
00:59:39.000 Imagine if, instead of having never hit their agreed upon NATO spending, and the United States often hitting double, imagine if we lived in a world where Canada actually honored There are agreements, you know, like good neighbors.
00:59:54.000 Think they still have the budget for socialized health care?
00:59:57.000 Think they still have the budget for socialized media, the CBC, government propaganda media?
01:00:03.000 Think a lot of those little niceties that they have, that they brag about, how Canada takes care of their citizens more than nice.
01:00:10.000 Think that goes away?
01:00:11.000 Let's take this.
01:00:12.000 That happens, and then there's a global conflict where Canada has to defend itself.
01:00:17.000 How much free crap do you think they can give their citizens?
01:00:21.000 You remember the war effort, right, in World War II? We had to do that here in the United States.
01:00:25.000 We had to ration coffee, for crying out loud.
01:00:29.000 Just remember that when you have a socialist here say, why don't we do what other nations do, like Canada, like Sweden?
01:00:37.000 Do they have to defend themselves?
01:00:39.000 No?
01:00:39.000 Well, then we're not going to allow them to exploit us economically while we pay for their defenses.
01:00:44.000 Here's another claim that they make, and more proof that they are god-awful neighbors, but most importantly, Delusional.
01:00:52.000 Canada is going to hit President Trump where it hurts most on tariffs.
01:00:56.000 My first move is dollar-for-dollar retaliation.
01:01:01.000 And let me be very clear with President Trump.
01:01:04.000 If I am Prime Minister, I will not flinch.
01:01:07.000 We will retaliate if you hit us.
01:01:10.000 We will hit back.
01:01:11.000 We are going to have a targeted retaliation that exerts maximum pain in the U.S. and does minimum harm to us.
01:01:18.000 We're going to hit Trump's best friends.
01:01:20.000 I will impose a 100% tariff on Teslas.
01:01:23.000 I'm going to hit Wisconsin dairy.
01:01:26.000 I'm going to hit Florida orange juice.
01:01:28.000 It's an emergency situation, and we've got to relook at our defense spending where we're buying planes.
01:01:33.000 From the United States.
01:01:34.000 We're buying all kinds of defense industry products from the United States.
01:01:37.000 And you know what?
01:01:37.000 We're going to put them on hold for now.
01:01:39.000 And if this continues for a couple more weeks, we're going to cancel them.
01:01:42.000 Okay.
01:01:43.000 So the same thing about their vets.
01:01:45.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:01:46.000 Here's the truth.
01:01:47.000 A lot to unpack here.
01:01:48.000 Overlay A6. Canada's not even a top 25 purchaser for United States defense contracts.
01:01:56.000 So we wouldn't even feel it.
01:01:58.000 Morocco buys more.
01:02:02.000 What's that now?
01:02:02.000 What is that?
01:02:03.000 Is that a place?
01:02:04.000 I think if you saw the movie Babble, Brad Pitt cries there, something like that.
01:02:08.000 Oh, it's Africa.
01:02:09.000 Ah.
01:02:11.000 Is that Happy Feet?
01:02:12.000 No, that's Madagascar.
01:02:13.000 It's hard.
01:02:14.000 We're going to hit the United States where it hurts, and they're going to really feel the purchasing power of number 26 through 31, depending on the year.
01:02:23.000 Okay, let me give you some other uncomfortable truths here.
01:02:27.000 They're delusional.
01:02:28.000 Canada depends on the United States.
01:02:29.000 Way more than we do on Canada.
01:02:33.000 Okay?
01:02:34.000 And this is not even taking into account the military defense, which is, by the way, a given.
01:02:38.000 It's foundational for them.
01:02:40.000 2023, the United States, our exports to Canada are 1.3%.
01:02:44.000 That's what it was, about 1.3% of GDP. For Canada, their exports to the United States, 20% of GDP. 20% of GDP. They are not even top 25 purchasers as it relates to...
01:02:58.000 Planes or military wares.
01:03:00.000 And this is why President Trump, this isn't just about Canada, they're just fun to point out.
01:03:06.000 President Trump doesn't seem all that affected by it.
01:03:09.000 I've known many people who've lost children to fentanyl, and for other reasons, but to fentanyl, it's such a big killer.
01:03:17.000 And those people are never the same people.
01:03:19.000 I mean, I've seen people that for the rest of their lives, they're not the same people.
01:03:23.000 They're so different, it's not even believable.
01:03:26.000 Dynamic people, happy people, they die a miserable death.
01:03:30.000 And that's because of the crap that comes in through China and through Mexico and through Canada.
01:03:37.000 A lot of it comes through Canada.
01:03:39.000 Look, we support Canada.
01:03:43.000 $200 billion a year in subsidies, one way or the other.
01:03:48.000 We let them make millions of cars.
01:03:51.000 We let them...
01:03:52.000 Send us lumber.
01:03:53.000 We don't need their lumber.
01:03:54.000 We're going to free up our lumber.
01:03:57.000 Lee's going to do the head of environmental.
01:03:59.000 We're going to free up our lumber.
01:04:01.000 We have the best lumber there is.
01:04:02.000 We don't need their lumber.
01:04:03.000 What do we need their lumber for?
01:04:05.000 When you look at the...
01:04:07.000 It's Beechwood!
01:04:07.000 We subsidize them $200 billion a year.
01:04:11.000 Without us, Canada can't make it.
01:04:13.000 You know, Canada relies on us 95%.
01:04:16.000 We rely on them 4%.
01:04:19.000 Big difference.
01:04:22.000 And I say Canada should be our 51st state.
01:04:25.000 There's no tariffs, no nothing.
01:04:29.000 This is the way the United States should have been dealing with the world this entire time.
01:04:33.000 Yes.
01:04:36.000 You ever travel abroad?
01:04:37.000 Ever since World War II. Since we had to find that reconstruction and everything.
01:04:39.000 Yeah, certainly.
01:04:41.000 You ever travel abroad?
01:04:42.000 You Americans are so arrogant.
01:04:44.000 Well, we really haven't been, actually.
01:04:46.000 But I think it's about time to be the cock of the walk.
01:04:49.000 I'm fine with it.
01:04:51.000 Wait, we're so arrogant.
01:04:52.000 What country?
01:04:53.000 UK? The sun never set on the British Empire.
01:04:55.000 Have you ever heard that saying before?
01:04:56.000 Because you guys colonized and raped and pillaged, I guess?
01:04:59.000 No, we stole the sun.
01:05:01.000 Drowned it in the Boston Harbor.
01:05:04.000 France, Spain, you guys were doing the exact same thing and trying to keep up with the Joneses with England.
01:05:09.000 Like, go screw yourselves.
01:05:12.000 Here's another claim that they make, and they're reaching.
01:05:15.000 Well, actually, the United States, and here's the thing, the left here will echo this.
01:05:20.000 They're one and the same.
01:05:22.000 And they're all delusional.
01:05:23.000 They're all wrong and dishonest.
01:05:25.000 The United States really needs Canadian energy.
01:05:28.000 Put them on notice on the broader aspects of our commercial relationship.
01:05:34.000 We are their largest supplier of energy.
01:05:37.000 We are their largest supplier of electricity.
01:05:39.000 We are their largest supplier of uranium.
01:05:41.000 I could go on, but I will exhaust all my time.
01:05:44.000 Okay, here's the truth.
01:05:47.000 We don't need Canada.
01:05:50.000 We don't need Canada for energy.
01:05:52.000 Now, you can talk about crude and how they have the ability to refine it, to process it, but that's just because we decided it was more cost effective.
01:05:59.000 We can build that up.
01:06:00.000 Canada can't.
01:06:01.000 Canada is screwed.
01:06:02.000 Canada needs the United States.
01:06:03.000 They need the United States.
01:06:05.000 We're not just talking about energy, but they need us so they can export their energy.
01:06:09.000 We do not need their energy.
01:06:10.000 Since 2019, the United States has been a net energy exporter for the first time under Donald Trump.
01:06:16.000 The first time, I believe, in our lifetime.
01:06:19.000 If I'm not mistaken, we need to build some new refineries to refine our own oil in the United States.
01:06:26.000 That would involve some growing pains.
01:06:28.000 It's a slightly uncomfortable option.
01:06:30.000 Canada has no options.
01:06:33.000 None.
01:06:36.000 It may seem like, why are you spending so much time on Canada?
01:06:38.000 But we went through Medicaid, and we went through the $17 million puppet show, so I think we diversified a little bit.
01:06:44.000 But...
01:06:46.000 People don't really seem to grasp, or a lot of people to the left, that the United States has been exploited for a very, very long time, and there's no need for it to be the case.
01:06:56.000 Canada is a microcosm of modern entitlement-minded socialist or socialist-light governments.
01:07:07.000 They can only brag about their entitlements.
01:07:10.000 They can only brag about their social safety nets as long as the United States...
01:07:15.000 Foots the bill.
01:07:16.000 And I don't just mean foots the bill as far as military and defending them, though that is most important.
01:07:21.000 The more we look into USAID, the more we look into a lot of the government bloat, the more that we see people benefiting who aren't even a part of this country, and that includes places like Canada.
01:07:35.000 They sit and they brag about socialized healthcare and their euthanization program, or even in Germany, they'll brag about free internet being a human right and how does the United States have an awful blah, blah, blah, insert whatever here.
01:07:48.000 Look, they're delusional if they think that we need them more than they need us, but let's put a finer point on it, okay?
01:07:56.000 All right, you like all that free stuff?
01:07:57.000 Yeah, okay, the United States doesn't do it.
01:07:59.000 Okay, we're going to change one thing.
01:08:01.000 Rest of the world, protect your own countries, go.
01:08:07.000 Don't demand that we subsidize your country and then bitch about how we subsidize it.
01:08:13.000 That gravy train is over.
01:08:16.000 And so this is all theater in Canada, just like most of what you hear going on at the UN. Just like what most of you hear going on at NATO. If they want to discuss all of these solutions while they don't even spend their contracted amount, for example, in NATO. Look, you guys can do that.
01:08:35.000 You guys can have your weekend getaways, and you guys can have your climate summits, and you can have your international agreements, and you can talk about how we reform the world.
01:08:44.000 The only thing that we request is that you ask us first.
01:08:52.000 Because Daddy decides how Daddy spends the money in this household.
01:08:56.000 That's where you guys are.
01:08:57.000 Even if Canada's up in the attic.
01:09:00.000 It's all so silly.
01:09:02.000 Almost as silly as George W. Bush still investigating the disappearance of Waldo.
01:09:06.000 Ha!
01:09:07.000 There he is!
01:09:08.000 Lord, I told you I'd find him.
01:09:10.000 You misunderstood me.
01:09:13.000 What?
01:09:14.000 That's a happy ending.
01:09:15.000 Yeah, he found him.
01:09:17.000 Look at that.
01:09:17.000 He was hiding in a cave.
01:09:19.000 Well, it was a peppermint-themed cave.
01:09:21.000 Yeah, of course.
01:09:21.000 That's hard.
01:09:22.000 You can't do that.
01:09:23.000 I don't know how I keep finding these peppermint-themed places.
01:09:27.000 Yeah, I didn't even know they existed.
01:09:28.000 Theme parks, forests, caves.
01:09:30.000 Beaches.
01:09:31.000 Medieval battlegrounds.
01:09:32.000 Yeah.
01:09:33.000 Guerrilla military training grounds.
01:09:35.000 I don't even know why there's a peppermint military anywhere.
01:09:37.000 anywhere.
01:09:38.000 This has been No Canada.
01:09:39.000 All right, and of course, it is Chat Thursday today with We're going to continue.
01:09:49.000 For those of you who are not members of Rumble Premium, none of this happens.
01:09:52.000 You think that I'd be able to trash an entire country consequence-free on YouTube if I was beholden to advertisers?
01:09:59.000 It's because of you.
01:10:00.000 Click that button.
01:10:01.000 $99 annually.
01:10:03.000 Rumble Premium is Mug Club.
01:10:04.000 Mug Club is now Rumble Premium.
01:10:06.000 You get everyone else there on the network.
01:10:08.000 You get it ad-free.
01:10:09.000 None of it happens without you.
01:10:11.000 Every day we stream, especially here on Rumble, we own live.
01:10:14.000 But we are going to continue discussing this.
01:10:16.000 Oh, no.
01:10:16.000 I guess yesterday some people didn't like that I trashed Gladiator 2. No, I think...
01:10:23.000 I actually watched it last night.
01:10:25.000 It's bad.
01:10:26.000 I didn't think it was terrible, but it was definitely not anywhere near the same level as Gladiator 1. Hold on.
01:10:32.000 There was a lot in the...
01:10:33.000 I'm going to get a note.
01:10:35.000 Fire Josh.
01:10:37.000 No, no, no.
01:10:37.000 It's fine.
01:10:39.000 He thinks it was mediocre.
01:10:41.000 I think it's an affront to modern civilization.
01:10:44.000 Okay.
01:10:44.000 The shark thing was...
01:10:46.000 Even my wife was like...
01:10:48.000 No?
01:10:48.000 Why are they going so...
01:10:49.000 The sharks are that hungry?
01:10:51.000 Yeah, immediately.
01:10:52.000 They're not eating themselves.
01:10:53.000 How did they get the sharks so hungry they're not even eating themselves?
01:10:56.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:10:57.000 I did some research, by the way.
01:10:58.000 I was like, I don't want to sound dumb about this because I don't think they can put that much water in the Coliseum.
01:11:02.000 No, they absolutely could not.
01:11:02.000 One and a half meters for Canadian friends or five feet for normal people.
01:11:07.000 Yeah.
01:11:07.000 Five feet of water is the max they could put in the Coliseum.
01:11:10.000 Yeah, and I'd be willing to bet that they didn't have very effective shark transportation.
01:11:14.000 No.
01:11:15.000 Or did they just live in the aqueducts?
01:11:17.000 Is that like, they get them in the bathhouses?
01:11:19.000 How did that happen?
01:11:21.000 Some senator with his slave boy in a striddle.
01:11:24.000 Oil me, slave boy!
01:11:26.000 Oh, Lord!
01:11:27.000 Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the bathhouse.
01:11:29.000 It was an urban legend.
01:11:30.000 Actually, somebody flushed a baby shark down the toilet one time, and now they live in the system.
01:11:33.000 I earned my freedom wrestling sharks in the Coliseum.
01:11:36.000 That's right.
01:11:37.000 It's so stupid.
01:11:38.000 Then they got these big boats, and then one boat takes out the other boat's oars by going a total speed of one and a half knots.
01:11:46.000 Yes, exactly.
01:11:47.000 It goes through like 16 oars and then rams them.
01:11:50.000 The whole thing was so unrealistic.
01:11:53.000 And you're right, the CGI was kind of bad.
01:11:55.000 Yeah.
01:11:55.000 The rhino.
01:11:56.000 Riding a rhinoceros.
01:11:57.000 The rhino speared a guy or impaled a guy in the blood.
01:12:01.000 It was just so unrealistic.
01:12:02.000 Yeah, let alone the monkey scene.
01:12:04.000 Oh yeah, where the guy chokes out a monkey?
01:12:07.000 Oh, he bites the monkey and the monkey doesn't go monkey on him.
01:12:11.000 Yes, exactly!
01:12:13.000 The monkey's just like...
01:12:14.000 Are you really?
01:12:17.000 Like what?
01:12:17.000 Did he have an unwritten contract with the monkey?
01:12:20.000 It looked like a Nosferatu monkey, first of all.
01:12:22.000 Yes, it made no sense.
01:12:23.000 Which was like, where did these come from?
01:12:24.000 Yeah.
01:12:25.000 I guess Germany.
01:12:26.000 But, you know, I also, I don't know.
01:12:28.000 I didn't like how the story, I don't want to get into it too much.
01:12:30.000 Anyways, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be based on your review, but also not great.
01:12:35.000 You just described a terrible movie.
01:12:37.000 Yes.
01:12:38.000 I try not to hate movies because I did watch it and I was entertained.
01:12:42.000 Try harder.
01:12:42.000 Well, there's a worse film out there.
01:12:44.000 So Gladiator 2, I didn't like it, but there's a worse film and I haven't watched all of it, but I guess a 2018 Steven Seagal film.
01:12:52.000 It's called China salesman.
01:12:55.000 And for those of you who don't understand this, Steven Seagal, well, we all know he's a fraud, but he is a certifiable psychopath.
01:13:03.000 path.
01:13:03.000 So this will be fun.
01:13:04.000 I want to thank you all.
01:13:12.000 Thank you.
01:13:14.000 However, only two companies have been selected.
