00:00:00.000 I'm a real life atomizer.
00:00:08.000 That's so many droplets.
00:00:09.000 It's a lot of droplets.
00:00:11.000 Thank God we all did the Popsicle stick COVID blood brothers here. 0.93
00:00:14.000 Oh good.
00:00:16.000 You didn't do it, no.
00:00:17.000 You might, by the way, in the next couple days you might feel a slight cough.
00:00:20.000 You may want to lay down for a bit.
00:00:22.000 And stay away from my newborn son.
00:00:23.000 Thank you.
00:00:24.000 No, your newborn son is completely fine.
00:00:25.000 He's fine.
00:00:26.000 Virtually fine.
00:00:27.000 I don't want to get in trouble.
00:00:28.000 Virtually means almost, almost all kids fine.
00:00:34.000 We have a little bit of echo.
00:00:35.000 I don't know if the shotgun mic is on or what's going on, but really glad to be with you guys today.
00:00:38.000 We have Elijah Schafer on, down on the ground in Kenosha.
00:00:41.000 Kenosha.
00:00:41.000 What did I say?
00:00:43.000 No, we're just making fun of Kenosha.
00:00:45.000 He's repeating me.
00:00:47.000 Kenosha, which is kind of surprising because he's actually bigger in Sheboygan. 0.99
00:00:52.000 And then we'll be talking about why New York sucks, why New York City sucks. 0.93
00:00:56.000 And we're going to do a recap here of the RNC from last night and you guys voted on Twitter. 0.96
00:01:01.000 We will be broadcasting live on Thursday night because I think we're actually going to have Ted Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz and Donald Trump Jr.
00:01:08.000 live.
00:01:09.000 So if we didn't have that, I wouldn't want to do it.
00:01:13.000 But it was pretty funny last night.
00:01:13.000 Sure.
00:01:14.000 We're going to get into some highlights, but for me the highlight was when Donald Trump was talking to his group of people.
00:01:19.000 Yes.
00:01:19.000 And he said, you know this virus, okay, the coronavirus, the China virus, there are many names.
00:01:25.000 I'm not going to get into all the names.
00:01:26.000 So many names.
00:01:27.000 I want to hear the names.
00:01:28.000 But, you know, some people may be offended, but that's what it is, folks.
00:01:34.000 Elaborate.
00:01:35.000 So many names.
00:01:35.000 Do you mean the virus or the disease itself?
00:01:38.000 Um, we have Audio Wade in third chair.
00:01:41.000 Bill, uh, Half-Asian Billersman will be back tomorrow. 1.00
00:01:43.000 Gerald A. is back.
00:01:44.000 He's a father now, so that's very nice.
00:01:47.000 His, uh, sperm works, uh, quarter black carrot is here. 0.55
00:01:49.000 Hey, good morning.
00:01:51.000 And we do have a quick off-the-top I want to show you.
00:01:54.000 There's an update here on Jacob Flake.
00:01:56.000 New video footage that shows another angle where many people have been saying, hey, why didn't the cops try and detain him first?
00:02:04.000 Why didn't they try and subdue him?
00:02:06.000 Which, by the way, they don't have to do if he's reaching into a car out of sight.
00:02:11.000 But you know what?
00:02:12.000 The good news is they did that also.
00:02:13.000 Here's the new footage from another angle.
00:02:15.000 Jacob Flake, here we go.
00:02:18.000 There, right there, you can see the car.
00:02:20.000 This was taped on an old graph calculator.
00:02:23.000 Look, that's him on the ground and the cops trying to restrain him right there.
00:02:27.000 See?
00:02:28.000 Two cops trying to restrain him.
00:02:30.000 On this side of the car, he gets up, out of the restraint, and starts walking around.
00:02:39.000 And we have no confirmation, by the way, whatsoever.
00:02:41.000 Some people have said that he had a knife.
00:02:43.000 Some people said that he was saying he was going to get a gun.
00:02:45.000 We don't know.
00:02:46.000 But his rap sheet, there was a current warrant out for his arrest.
00:02:49.000 There is a warrant out right now for being a sex offender and domestic abuser.
00:02:57.000 Me too!
00:02:57.000 You too!
00:02:59.000 His wife too! 0.99
00:03:00.000 The lady he sexually assaulted too! 1.00
00:03:01.000 How about that? 0.94
00:03:02.000 Context is racist, Stephen.
00:03:04.000 Context is absolutely racist.
00:03:06.000 I heard a lot of racial slurs in that video, didn't you?
00:03:08.000 Yeah.
00:03:09.000 Everybody's been saying it was race-motivated.
00:03:11.000 Dad!
00:03:12.000 So they must have heard that.
00:03:13.000 Yeah.
00:03:13.000 No.
00:03:14.000 Dad!
00:03:14.000 We don't know what they're saying!
00:03:17.000 It is honestly just remarkable and I felt like I was beating my head against the wall.
00:03:20.000 It's still the number one trend all over Twitter.
00:03:22.000 Yesterday said this is a completely justified shooting and that's without the new context and footage that we have.
00:03:29.000 Go home and have dinner, officers!
00:03:31.000 Thank you for your service!
00:03:32.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:03:33.000 But you know what's gonna happen.
00:03:34.000 If they use these people as the fall guy, this is a travesty of justice.
00:03:39.000 Okay?
00:03:40.000 It's a travesty of justice.
00:03:41.000 Now, I'm not saying that that guy should be shot because of his prior crimes, but there is an active warrant, right?
00:03:47.000 So the police officers are clearly trying to arrest him there.
00:03:49.000 There's an active warrant!
00:03:50.000 For serial killings!
00:03:52.000 And his actions right then are enough!
00:03:55.000 But again, if they know who this guy is, maybe they do, maybe they don't, That would also add to it because there's a warrant out for his arrest, which is not that hard to figure out if you run the plates.
00:04:04.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:04:05.000 And I saw so many tweets yesterday saying that reaching into your car while casually ignoring police officers is not a death sentence.
00:04:11.000 And I was like, what?
00:04:13.000 In what world?
00:04:14.000 What was he, reaching in for a bouquet of flowers to give the cops?
00:04:17.000 Like, what do you think he's gonna do?
00:04:18.000 As a matter of fact, if anything, being casual there is almost more suspicious.
00:04:22.000 It's like, he was casual.
00:04:23.000 Get on the ground! 0.82
00:04:25.000 Stop resisting arrest!
00:04:26.000 Oh, you know, I'm just going to grab myself a quick trip biggie.
00:04:31.000 You know, I hear you, officer.
00:04:32.000 He was parched.
00:04:32.000 I'm going to reach in here a little bit.
00:04:34.000 I don't understand.
00:04:34.000 Give me a second.
00:04:35.000 You know me, I got some sour skittles in this bag.
00:04:39.000 No, no, he was reaching in.
00:04:40.000 Did you guys want some?
00:04:40.000 This is a guy who was reaching in for the cure for cancer.
00:04:43.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, exactly.
00:04:44.000 At least he was casual about it.
00:04:46.000 At least he was casual about it.
00:04:47.000 He was casual after throwing the officers off of him with a perfect Ipan Sayanagi.
00:04:53.000 Yeah, right?
00:04:54.000 Well, luckily for us, we have LeBron James tweeting about it, so there will be some justice, apparently.
00:04:58.000 We're smart people, you know.
00:04:59.000 No, let's not.
00:05:00.000 We're going to violate YouTube's guidelines.
00:05:01.000 You can't make fun. 0.99
00:05:02.000 Functionally retarded. 1.00
00:05:03.000 All right. 0.93
00:05:05.000 So, here you go.
00:05:05.000 Does that change your opinion on the Jacob Blake situation?
00:05:07.000 It only reinforces my view, and again, my view is always, wait for the facts.
00:05:12.000 And then we waited, saw the tape, found his rap sheet, which was not being reported anywhere.
00:05:15.000 I haven't found it reported anywhere else outside of AP, Associated Press.
00:05:19.000 Sorry, someone's going to hang me on that.
00:05:21.000 And now we have more information!
00:05:24.000 But expect him to have a write-up in Variety about what a gentle giant he was.
00:05:27.000 He was a saint.
00:05:28.000 He was a soulful saint.
00:05:29.000 What a gentle, averaged-sized, giant-hearted man he was.
00:05:34.000 It's a little tough to make that work when you're not 6'4".
00:05:36.000 Really quickly, let's go to CNN to see this man do an upper lip.
00:05:39.000 Republicans tout Trump's handling of pandemic.
00:05:42.000 Hmm, yeah, well you know what, we're gonna fact check CNN's fact check.
00:05:45.000 Went from cotton to Congress in one lifetime. 0.97
00:05:48.000 They can't just say Donald Trump responded to the pandemic faster than Democrats.
00:05:53.000 They got really mad when they cut from one of his speeches because they said it was misleading, when the fact is he showed a video of Joe Biden saying it was xenophobic, of Nancy Pelosi saying come on down to Chinatown, it's totally fine, like that is doctrine. 0.51
00:06:07.000 Oh, so she was saying, come on down to Chinatown, uh, at a different time where the pandemic wasn't going on?
00:06:13.000 This wasn't after Donald Trump's stated travel ban?
00:06:15.000 No, it was, but we just, but we don't, but we don't like him.
00:06:17.000 No, no.
00:06:18.000 And CNN was like, his limited travel ban, he can't hang his hat on that.
00:06:21.000 Like, that was like the end of the pandemic.
00:06:23.000 It was like, he did That was just the beginning of what he was doing.
00:06:25.000 No, that was the beginning.
00:06:26.000 Well, you guys did nothing.
00:06:26.000 What do you want from me?
00:06:27.000 And then you tried to blame him.
00:06:29.000 I didn't do enough.
00:06:30.000 Well, let's get to that, because there's so much with the audience today.
00:06:32.000 Yes.
00:06:33.000 But before that, I also just wanted to get to this. 1.00
00:06:35.000 Cultural appropriation is a real problem, folks, as seen by those damn filthy Asians stealing bubble tea from the blacks. 1.00
00:06:42.000 Here you go. 1.00
00:06:42.000 This establishment is not black-owned, but you're stealing black culture. 1.00
00:06:48.000 Is this not black culture? 0.99
00:06:50.000 That Asian man is terribly confused. 0.62
00:06:53.000 He's like, I'm sorry?
00:06:55.000 This is a problem he just can't solve.
00:06:57.000 What, are you going to strip them?
00:06:59.000 Are you going to delouse them?
00:07:02.000 How are you going to expose them? 1.00
00:07:04.000 You came here because you're stupid. 1.00
00:07:05.000 What made you think it was black owned? 1.00
00:07:08.000 That's why I came here for my friends to find a place of black business. 0.99
00:07:11.000 This is not black owned. 0.97
00:07:14.000 This is not black owned. 1.00
00:07:15.000 Asians stealing black culture once again. 1.00
00:07:19.000 Your homes don't cost me. 1.00
00:07:22.000 I came here to see what you know about black culture.
00:07:26.000 You have a little faith, I know you do, but I did not argue with you because you're a queen. 0.96
00:07:31.000 Oh, please someone just sew her lip shut like a scarecrow. 1.00
00:07:35.000 I'm out. 1.00
00:07:37.000 How could you be that dumb? 1.00
00:07:39.000 Ma'am, that's because you're stupid. 1.00
00:07:41.000 What do you mean by stupid? 1.00
00:07:43.000 Unintelligent. 1.00
00:07:45.000 Functionally retarded. 1.00
00:07:48.000 Kim Jong Un doing his talent show, Run DMC, like, this is ours! 0.98
00:07:53.000 Run DMC with all Koreans! 1.00
00:07:55.000 And she walks in with a cell phone, oh no, you're not black. 0.98
00:08:00.000 What about the sign outside made you think, oh, this is black-owned? 0.89
00:08:02.000 I don't know.
00:08:03.000 All of the Asian people that work there? 1.00
00:08:05.000 I don't know why you ownin' a Vietnamese soup place and y'all ain't from Ghana, bitch! 1.00
00:08:12.000 It's bubble tea. 0.99
00:08:13.000 Has anyone been under the impression that bubble tea is anything other than offensively Asian? 1.00
00:08:19.000 This bitch. 1.00
00:08:19.000 I think the establishment was called Tea Trap, and so I guess she thinks that it's talking about trap music. 1.00
00:08:24.000 It's a trap!
00:08:28.000 Yes, because tapioca balls came from Ghana.
00:08:30.000 You're right.
00:08:31.000 Exactly.
00:08:33.000 Oh my god.
00:08:37.000 Alright, so my question for you actually is, do you think that the word fact check, we're going to get into the RNC and the fact checking here in a little bit, has the word fact check lost all meaning?
00:08:45.000 And I tried to tune into ABC thinking it was just CNN.
00:08:48.000 They are just as bad.
00:08:50.000 ABC, CBS, there is no place to go.
00:08:53.000 No safe haven.
00:08:54.000 Which, by the way, also, speaking of place to go, subscribe to Crowder Bits on YouTube.
00:08:57.000 That's where you get clips every day that are shorter, and it might make it through your notifications.
00:09:02.000 Hit the notification bell, too, because subscriptions don't mean a whole lot.
00:09:04.000 We're available on Spotify, Android, Apple Podcasts, and please do consider joining Mug Club at ladoscrowder.com.
00:09:11.000 It's the only way we're able to do this.
00:09:13.000 We've been remonetized on YouTube, but it's... Clock's ticking.
00:09:17.000 It's not exactly what you would... We're not Scrooge McDuck.
00:09:21.000 You would think!
00:09:22.000 You got re-monetized.
00:09:23.000 We were re-monetized.
00:09:25.000 In the loosest of senses.
00:09:28.000 They still give you no money, but you're eligible.
00:09:30.000 What's the sound of a reverse ka-ching? 0.98
00:09:33.000 Yeah, I don't know.
00:09:33.000 Ching-gutch?
00:09:35.000 I don't know.
00:09:36.000 But that's what just happened when we covered Jacob Blake.
00:09:40.000 So before we get to the fat tip checking, what did I say?
00:09:43.000 Did I say it right, Jacob Blake?
00:09:44.000 Yeah.
00:09:45.000 I was laughing at Ching Guk or whatever you said. 1.00
00:09:47.000 That sounds racist.
00:09:49.000 Why are you appropriating our sound?
00:09:52.000 Here we go again.
00:09:52.000 Ma'am, that's our Cantonese.
00:09:55.000 You can go screw yourself, that's what I think. 0.98
00:09:58.000 General Tso. 0.98
00:09:59.000 General Tso.
00:10:00.000 Everybody knows Tso was riding the railway to Canada with Tubman.
00:10:04.000 Oh.
00:10:05.000 Ma'am, ma'am, ma'am, ma'am, ma'am. 1.00
00:10:06.000 I think you are retarded. 1.00
00:10:09.000 You are a dumb bitch. 1.00
00:10:10.000 You are a dumb bitch. 1.00
00:10:11.000 Yeah, and be really polite about it. 1.00
00:10:15.000 No, no.
00:10:16.000 No, no, no, no.
00:10:17.000 Yes, yes, yes. 1.00
00:10:17.000 Very, very dumb bitch. 1.00
00:10:19.000 Yeah. 1.00
00:10:20.000 No, you don't.
00:10:21.000 No, no, no, no.
00:10:21.000 No, no, no.
00:10:22.000 You dumb bitch. 1.00
00:10:22.000 You misunderstand. 1.00
00:10:24.000 Go to Dumb Bitcher- Dumb Bitcherendia. 1.00
00:10:27.000 Dumb Bitch View. 1.00
00:10:28.000 Where you come from. 1.00
00:10:29.000 Where you live.
00:10:30.000 Very present.
00:10:31.000 Very present. 1.00
00:10:32.000 For uneducated bitches. 1.00
00:10:37.000 You go with your own kind. 1.00
00:10:39.000 You saying go with black people? 1.00
00:10:40.000 No, no, no, no. 0.98
00:10:40.000 You believe in segregation. 0.98
00:10:42.000 I believe in separation of dumb bitches. 1.00
00:10:47.000 I like this guy. 1.00
00:10:48.000 It's gonna be on a rooftop with a 30-odd stick.
00:10:54.000 We'll be taking your chat, too, by the way.
00:10:56.000 We don't do Super Chat on YouTube because, again, not worth the Benjamins.
00:11:00.000 Super Chat there on the Blaze when we go behind the paywall.
00:11:02.000 I think we actually have a clip first, before we get to the fact check, of Brian Stelter, correct?
00:11:07.000 Do we have that there?
00:11:08.000 He was complaining he was being interviewed.
00:11:14.000 Well, she shouldn't be complaining if he's being interviewed.
00:11:16.000 I mean, that's a win.
00:11:17.000 Sure.
00:11:18.000 I mean, honestly, yeah.
00:11:18.000 Put that in the W column for Brian Stelter, because there is no reason for this man to be on television.
00:11:23.000 Not at all.
00:11:24.000 Talentless, unlikable, and, you know, listen, for all the superficial reasons, we can't say it on YouTube, but I believe this next clip speaks for itself.
00:11:31.000 Let's roll it.
00:11:32.000 One-third of the country is disconnected from the normal news system, the NBC, the New York Times, and the Globe.
00:11:38.000 And they've opted into this alternative reality.
00:11:40.000 Insiders are boxed out of the news.
00:11:41.000 We don't have standards and practices.
00:11:43.000 We don't have checks and balances.
00:11:45.000 We don't have the kind of journalistic standards that other networks do.
00:11:48.000 And that's a problem.
00:11:49.000 That actually hurts us.
00:11:50.000 It hurts our credibility.
00:11:51.000 Yeah. 0.95
00:11:53.000 That's why your credibility took a real ass-kicking over the last couple of hours. 0.96
00:11:58.000 Because of Fox News. 0.95
00:11:58.000 Because of Fox News. 0.95
00:11:59.000 They don't have the journalistic standards like we did in our fact-checking of Jesse Smollett, which I then defended after we found out that it's not very common for people to make nooses out of shoelaces when they're two Zambian personal trainers. 0.54
00:12:12.000 We should have seen the signs, but I'm gonna double down still straight!
00:12:18.000 So to speak.
00:12:19.000 Obviously.
00:12:20.000 I bet you this is like therapy.
00:12:22.000 He's just opening that closet door and slamming it.
00:12:23.000 Just like, in, out, in, out, like Grover.
00:12:26.000 Over, under, and through!
00:12:29.000 I was seriously blown away to hear him say that those news organizations did have journalistic standards.
00:12:35.000 Have you seen any of the live streams that we've done?
00:12:38.000 Have you seen anything that you've put on air that has turned out to be completely false?
00:12:43.000 That's the problem with alternative media, is someone like you gets to have a voice as legitimate as the person who... I don't even know what connection this guy has!
00:12:53.000 But it's deep.
00:12:54.000 Like, I never believed in the Illuminati, but what is happening there?
00:12:57.000 They got him on a different network. 1.00
00:12:59.000 He had sex with some pigs. 1.00
00:13:01.000 Yeah, exactly. 1.00
00:13:02.000 That's the collab that we needed.
00:13:04.000 The crossover of Brian Stelter on another network.
00:13:09.000 Where was that?
00:13:10.000 ABC?
00:13:11.000 It was MSNBC. 0.98
00:13:13.000 Who says at MSNBC, like, dammit, we need Stelter. 0.98
00:13:17.000 Bring him on. 0.98
00:13:18.000 It's time.
00:13:18.000 I mean, when he walks in the room, somebody's like, that's the guy!
00:13:22.000 That's exactly who we've been looking for!
00:13:24.000 They just put up the stelter signal.
00:13:25.000 It's just a pint of Chunky Monkey.
00:13:26.000 He's like, ah!
00:13:28.000 I'm needed!
00:13:29.000 Trying to get off his sweater, but he can't.
00:13:32.000 Like, these buttons are so tight! 1.00
00:13:34.000 Son of a bitch! 1.00
00:13:36.000 Oh, damn my grip strength from years and years of non-physical labor, as well as lack of mentally stimulating activities. 1.00
00:13:43.000 I'm of no value! 0.98
00:13:45.000 But well paid!
00:13:46.000 It's almost like God had an extra mold and said, toss that one on there, see what happens.
00:13:50.000 So, the highlight, before we get to the fact-checking, the highlight of last night, for people who didn't watch the RNC, I don't know, did you guys all watch it?
00:13:59.000 I did.
00:14:00.000 Was this Cuban immigrant, a guy named Maximo, I want to make sure I get it right, Maximo Alvarez, and this is something Something I've talked about before, because Cuban immigrants were the single most reliable Republican voting bloc for a long time, like 80-something percent.
00:14:13.000 And there's a great film from Andy Garcia, is it The Lost City?
00:14:18.000 I can't remember what it was, but it was about sort of the changeover, I think, of Batista to, you know, Guevara and Castro, and that kind of whole changing of hands.
00:14:25.000 A remarkable film, and it didn't really get a lot of attention.
00:14:28.000 I think Cuban Americans, those immigrants, it's really a group that people should study.
00:14:33.000 Yes.
00:14:33.000 And the reason for that is because they came here for the American dream when even Democrats were still selling that.
00:14:39.000 At that point.
00:14:39.000 As something that was, you know, it was something to aim for.
00:14:42.000 It was something to strive for.
00:14:43.000 Yeah.
00:14:43.000 And now that's changed.
00:14:44.000 I think that's the biggest difference that you see between the Republican convention and the Democrat convention is you're down, you're out, you can't do it, systems stacked against you, unless the guy who's been in office for 59 years returns and he'll save you.
00:14:56.000 And the Republican, there was a lot of hero worship of Donald Trump.
00:14:58.000 Yes.
00:14:58.000 a little bit of that. But they have to contrast it because Joe Biden is saying that nothing he's
00:15:02.000 doing is correct. And so they're saying, hey, actually, Donald Trump did this, this, this,
00:15:05.000 and improve my life this way. And thank you very much. But this Cuban immigrant came in. 1.00
00:15:09.000 And what I loved about his speech, I highly recommend you go watch the whole speech,
00:15:12.000 is no one can ding him for it. When he actually says communism, socialism, that that's what this
00:15:17.000 is. He knows. And no one can say, oh, that's fear mongering.
00:15:21.000 He lived through it and floated over on this desk chair.
00:15:24.000 He's like, OK, we're going to America.
00:15:26.000 He made it happen.
00:15:27.000 And Cuba, it's not like they were some backwater.
00:15:29.000 They were very prosperous.
00:15:30.000 Tons of money was pouring down there from American companies.
00:15:32.000 So he gets to see prosperity, people being misguided and falling into communism, and a true dictator, not somebody like, oh, Donald Trump's a dictator.
00:15:40.000 A true dictator and seeing exactly what happens.
00:15:42.000 And they came here for freedom, and that's why they vote Republican.
00:15:44.000 As opposed to like Honduras or Venezuela where they've created nothing aside from Miss America, wonderful contestants.
00:15:50.000 But outside of that, not a whole lot!
00:15:54.000 So let me show this first before we get to the fact check, but I think everyone should see this and I would love to have him on the show.
00:15:58.000 Maximo Alvarez, the Cuban immigrant, business owner in Florida, last night at the RNC.
00:16:03.000 Those four promises, spread the wealth, free education, free healthcare, defund the police, Trust the socialist state more than your family and your community.
00:16:19.000 They don't sound radical to my ears.
00:16:24.000 They sound familiar.
00:16:26.000 I choose President Trump because I choose America.
00:16:32.000 I choose freedom.
00:16:33.000 He's the most authentic speaker.
00:16:35.000 Still hear my dad.
00:16:37.000 There is no other place to go.
00:16:44.000 Bye.
00:16:45.000 Thank you and may the good Lord bless America.
00:16:50.000 I love hearing that from Cuban Seymour Cassell.
00:16:53.000 It sounds like it.
00:16:54.000 A real one.
00:16:55.000 Yeah.
00:16:56.000 Oh, there he is.
00:16:57.000 Wow.
00:16:58.000 Star of...
00:16:59.000 But he means it.
00:17:01.000 I think the strategy you see from the RNC is, hey, we're going to have a bunch of Americans who are just like you.
00:17:05.000 That's why we have a lot of people who are just small business owners or nurses. 1.00
00:17:08.000 The problem is they're just like you, but they come across as inauthentic because they're not polished speakers.
00:17:13.000 And so that's where you have politicians or people like Joe Biden who've never worked a day in their life in the private sector since the ripe old age of 24.
00:17:19.000 And they act like they're just like you, but they can sell people on it because they're good communicators.
00:17:25.000 And so unfortunately, the people who are like you and who will vote just as you are voting for President Trump, they come across as reading off a prompter and wooden, and I think there's a disconnect.
00:17:34.000 So sometimes the people who are best, their stories are best told, they're not best told by themselves.
00:17:39.000 Yeah, absolutely.
00:17:40.000 And there was a couple of other people, too.
00:17:41.000 I mean, Hershel Walker was one of the guys that spoke.
00:17:44.000 He was actually great, because they're dealing with a couple of things.
00:17:46.000 One is that socialism, this whole push from the left for socialism, is going to work, and it's fantastic.
00:17:51.000 He just refuted that right there, bringing somebody on who's dealt with it before.
00:17:54.000 And then Donald Trump is a racist, and he's like, I've known the man for 36, 37 years, and I've had a personal friendship with him, and you're telling me? 0.87
00:18:00.000 I grew up in Georgia. 0.98
00:18:01.000 This is what he said.
00:18:01.000 I grew up in Georgia.
00:18:02.000 I know what racism looks like.
00:18:04.000 He's not a racist.
00:18:05.000 I've known him for 36, 37 years.
00:18:07.000 And that man loves his soup and salad.
00:18:09.000 That's what he said.
00:18:10.000 He said he got muscles in his lower abdomen.
00:18:12.000 All he does is eat like a small cup of soup and salad each day.
00:18:15.000 He was a great athlete.
00:18:17.000 Yeah, he was a great athlete.
00:18:17.000 Still is, which is kind of funny.
00:18:18.000 Mentally a little bit loose, but we were like Panera Sides for lunch.
00:18:22.000 Yeah.
00:18:23.000 I was just going to say that what you were talking about with authenticity, a lot of times when people think that they're seeing something authentic, it's just really good people.
00:18:29.000 People who are really good at faking it.
00:18:31.000 Yeah.
00:18:31.000 But yeah, when you see actual authenticity, it actually is really refreshing to see that Cuban fella.
00:18:36.000 I forgot his name, Mr. Alvarez.
00:18:37.000 The Cuban fella! 1.00
00:18:38.000 Mr. Alvarez.
00:18:39.000 Senor Alvarez.
00:18:40.000 You know what?
00:18:41.000 No Cuban would be offended by that. 0.99
00:18:43.000 The only thing he might be offended by is like, I am 100% American.
00:18:46.000 He actually would. 1.00
00:18:48.000 You Ralphie looking Christmas story son of a bitch. 1.00
00:18:52.000 I am that. 1.00
00:18:53.000 I am that. 1.00
00:18:53.000 You go shoot your Red Ryder BB gun in your Cuba. 1.00
00:18:56.000 I can't put you in a raft. 1.00
00:18:57.000 I am 100% American. 1.00
00:18:59.000 You shoot your Ojo out. 1.00
00:19:00.000 You shoot your Ojo. 0.99
00:19:01.000 Very nice. 0.98
00:19:02.000 Pendejo.
00:19:03.000 Um, I don't know what that means.
00:19:05.000 We devolved.
00:19:06.000 We devolved.
00:19:08.000 Yeah, and I think what was really most surprising was the fact-checking of the RNC.
00:19:13.000 So Brian Stelter lamented that people aren't getting their news from CBS, MSNBC, CNN.
00:19:19.000 And I think it's a great thing because of the kind of fact-checking that they do.
00:19:22.000 So actually, we're going to do another segment.
00:19:23.000 We did this a long time ago with the Washington Post.
00:19:26.000 But fact-checking the fact-checkers.
00:19:27.000 Fat check! 0.99
00:19:28.000 Fat check! 0.99
00:19:29.000 Fat checker! 1.00
00:19:30.000 Fat checker! 1.00
00:19:31.000 Fat backer! 1.00
00:19:32.000 Check! 0.66
00:19:33.000 Dude.
00:19:34.000 That gets me, Em.
00:19:36.000 Yeah, I'm ready to go now.
00:19:37.000 I'm excited.
00:19:38.000 In!
00:19:39.000 Ready!
00:19:40.000 So we had that stealth talk, we already showed it.
00:19:42.000 Okay, so here's one thing they tried to fact-check at CNN.
00:19:44.000 Then I'm going to actually just read the article in real time.
00:19:47.000 We were preparing and doing research and then I realized that CNN fact-checks their own false fact-check in their same paragraph.
00:19:52.000 You'll see what I'm saying.
00:19:54.000 But first let's go to some video clips.
00:19:55.000 This is where they're talking about how Joe Biden, they're trying to fact-check that Republicans at the convention said that Joe Biden actually condoned or supported the violent rioters.
00:20:04.000 Give us some examples of what you saw tonight that needs to be fact-checked, and we understand this is just a small sampling.
00:20:11.000 So we had Donald Trump Jr.
00:20:12.000 suggest that Joe Biden described riots as, quote, peaceful protests.
00:20:16.000 In fact, Biden explicitly condemned protest violence and looting.
00:20:21.000 No, let's go to the tape.
00:20:23.000 Biden did call them peaceful protesters many times.
00:20:25.000 Let me read some actual quotes.
00:20:27.000 He said that Donald Trump's use of federal force in Portland was egregious.
00:20:30.000 And this is a direct Biden quote.
00:20:31.000 They are brutally attacking peaceful protesters, including a U.S.
00:20:34.000 Navy veteran.
00:20:35.000 Biden, then Biden, the presumptive Democratic nominee for president, said in a statement to BuzzFeed News.
00:20:40.000 That's remarkable because the only other statement he issued was to Cardi B.
00:20:45.000 Cardi B and BuzzFeed!
00:20:47.000 Not that I'm particularly pro-veteran or anything, I don't want to say that.
00:20:52.000 They have that little lower third on the DNC where it's like, this is not an endorsement at all of military action.
00:20:58.000 It's like, oh, why would we want the military to be the military?
00:21:02.000 How dare you?
00:21:04.000 And the worst example he could pick is Portland.
00:21:06.000 Yeah, I was about to say, if you're gonna pick one city where you could, like, make it seem like there were peaceful protests, you wouldn't pick Portland.
00:21:12.000 It's the last place you would pick.
00:21:13.000 Mom doped up on meth.
00:21:15.000 Ah, why can't we say black lives matter?
00:21:18.000 You've been saying it for months.
00:21:20.000 Like Nashville or something, I don't know.
00:21:22.000 Little Rock, Arkansas.
00:21:22.000 Also, they sent us, by the way, proof that walls work.
00:21:26.000 Right?
00:21:27.000 They're running down the police precinct, they put up a wall, it works.
00:21:30.000 They're going to the White House, they put up a fence, it works.
00:21:32.000 It does work.
00:21:32.000 Who knew?
00:21:33.000 Chaz, they put up a wall and all of a sudden they're protected.
00:21:35.000 So you know what?
00:21:36.000 Thank you for proving our point.
00:21:37.000 The first thing they did was build a wall.
00:21:38.000 And let me go, I just want to be clear about something before we move on here with the fact check.
00:21:42.000 The COVID situation, the riots that have been emerging at the same time.
00:21:45.000 I am not saying that the virus is a hoax.
00:21:47.000 I want to be very clear.
00:21:48.000 The virus is not a hoax.
00:21:48.000 The virus is real.
00:21:50.000 But they try and say, just like Mashable, that you are being unscientific.
00:21:54.000 These are the people who, by the way, say you can't vote in person, despite the fact that both Fauci and Birx, who agree on almost nothing, both said, if you can go to Trader Joe's and pick up your General Orange Chicken, I know I'm botching that because they appropriated culture, if you can go pick up your Orange Joe Chicken, whatever it's called, I have no idea, someone can correct me.
00:22:12.000 General Joe's!
00:22:13.000 That's probably what it is.
00:22:15.000 You can go vote.
00:22:16.000 So who's anti-science now?
00:22:17.000 But let's be clear, when people like me say this is a social engineering experiment, what do I mean?
00:22:23.000 I mean it is the most powerful political weapon that I can think of having ever been wielded in my time.
00:22:28.000 Let's walk through the timeline now, because sometimes you're too close to the forest to see the trees.
00:22:33.000 Okay, so with the COVID, you cannot Go to work, open a business, go to church, go to school, you can't vote, but we're going to declare racism a national health emergency so you can riot in the streets.
00:22:45.000 And people wonder why we think that this is some kind of an engineering program to control people.
00:22:51.000 Yeah, and that's why the death rate is important.
00:22:53.000 That's why it's important to say that all of this sort of social engineering or whatever, whatever you want to call it, is over a disease that has like a one-half of one percent chance of actually killing you if you get it.
00:23:01.000 I've known four people who've gotten it now.
00:23:03.000 You've known two?
00:23:03.000 Yes.
00:23:04.000 None of them had any serious symptoms.
00:23:05.000 Right, yeah.
00:23:06.000 And a total, but that's also half of people are asymptomatic.
00:23:09.000 Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
00:23:10.000 By the way, Steve, one caveat there, it depends on what you're protesting.
00:23:14.000 Right.
00:23:14.000 So it just has to be on the approved list.
00:23:16.000 Yeah, that's what it is.
00:23:17.000 You have to look for that.
00:23:17.000 Well, who are you protesting?
00:23:19.000 Donald Trump?
00:23:19.000 Oh, right this way.
00:23:21.000 We have some bricks and black cats.
00:23:23.000 We couldn't get cherry bombs this month, but we're hoping, fingers crossed with Amazon Prime kicking in, but some of the van delivery drivers are afraid to come on out here.
00:23:30.000 Yeah, we don't know why.
00:23:31.000 We'll get you some TNT or some quarter sticks of dynamite, and we'd like you to just follow our usher to the police precinct.
00:23:38.000 Gee, thanks.
00:23:40.000 It's very well organized, yeah.
00:23:41.000 I'll get y'all M-80s! 0.99
00:23:43.000 That's very sweet of you.
00:23:44.000 I already came with my own M-80s.
00:23:45.000 Came prepared.
00:23:47.000 Go enjoy yourself.
00:23:48.000 Is this like riot tourism?
00:23:50.000 I like it.
00:23:52.000 Kenosha.
00:23:54.000 I'm amazed they found a black person in Kenosha.
00:23:56.000 Oh jeez. 0.86
00:23:58.000 And banned.
00:23:59.000 Bubble tea, really big in Kenosha.
00:24:00.000 They're hunting them down, man.
00:24:03.000 Here's another fact check that they issued on unemployment claim from, I guess, the arts.
00:24:03.000 Here's another one.
00:24:09.000 Multiple speakers from Congressmen Steve Scalise and Jim Jordan tout economic records that have been obliterated by the pandemic.
00:24:09.000 Here you go.
00:24:16.000 They cited the lowest unemployment rate in 50 years.
00:24:19.000 Well, we don't have that anymore.
00:24:20.000 We're now at 10.2%, higher than at any time since the Great Recession.
00:24:25.000 Here's the thing, you know, they're actually rebutting their own claim right now.
00:24:28.000 Let's go live to CNN.
00:24:29.000 Look at this.
00:24:30.000 NYC struggles to bounce back after pandemic.
00:24:33.000 My point here is obviously we broke economic records.
00:24:37.000 No one denies it.
00:24:38.000 Before the pandemic and all parties, including Joe Biden, everyone is acknowledging that this is an outlier and temporary.
00:24:45.000 Because Donald Trump is saying, we'll get back and open sooner.
00:24:48.000 And Joe Biden is saying, this little blip is going to go away once you elect me in November.
00:24:52.000 Right now, they are saying, bounce back from the pandemic.
00:24:55.000 Bounce back means that you know there is a return to normal.
00:24:58.000 So their fact check here is, well, actually, this was obliterated by the pandemic.
00:25:02.000 Yeah, because you wouldn't allow people to go to work.
00:25:04.000 But you are assuming that this is temporary, by the way.
00:25:07.000 And as soon as the virus goes away, all of this stuff comes back.
00:25:07.000 Exactly.
00:25:10.000 And if you remember when he was giving the State of the Union, it was like, what are they going to say against him?
00:25:14.000 Every single number that he's putting out there on the economy is just killing it.
00:25:18.000 And now the stock market, and I know people say the stock market is not necessarily the economy, but look at the recovery that it has made.
00:25:23.000 We're not very far off the highs we saw in the NASDAQ, even higher than it was before.
00:25:27.000 Yeah, and there's going to be a delayed reaction with businesses reopening.
00:25:30.000 Of course, yeah.
00:25:31.000 And that's the problem.
00:25:32.000 By the way, we did see unemployment to a record low under President Donald Trump.
00:25:36.000 European countries have had their economies crumble.
00:25:38.000 They've suffered far worse than the United States.
00:25:41.000 And yeah, we did have an incredible salary increase for the average middle-class American income.
00:25:46.000 And we did have record low black unemployment.
00:25:48.000 But because of this pandemic, which, by the way, originated patient zero, okay, Wuhan, they're having pool party! 0.99
00:25:56.000 It's inflatable giraffes and crap. 0.64
00:25:59.000 Let me rephrase, it's not the pandemic that did this. 0.98
00:26:03.000 It's the overreaction because of scare tactics in the media about a pandemic.
00:26:08.000 They wouldn't talk about these numbers before when it was actually happening, but now that they're not happening because of them, now they talk about it.
00:26:14.000 Lockdowns have never worked in history, but okay, let's try them again and see if it can ruin the economy so that we can elect somebody else who's terrible at their job to begin with.
00:26:21.000 And one thing from that CNN lower third, it still says, NYC struggles to bounce back after pandemic.
00:26:26.000 Can we say that we're after the pandemic?
00:26:29.000 No! 1.00
00:26:29.000 No, because one life is too many, you white prick! 1.00
00:26:33.000 But CNN is telling me that it's after the pandemic. 0.99
00:26:35.000 One life!
00:26:37.000 One life!
00:26:37.000 Yes.
00:26:38.000 One voice.
00:26:39.000 Billy Gilman knows what I'm talking about.
00:26:41.000 One voice was heard when he came out of the closet.
00:26:44.000 I get that reference.
00:26:45.000 Wow.
00:26:45.000 I do not.
00:26:46.000 That's because you and I both hate our childhood.
00:26:48.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:26:49.000 I had the Christmas record.
00:26:51.000 Billy Gilman Christmas album.
00:26:52.000 Who would do that to you?
00:26:56.000 It's a duet!
00:26:57.000 Yeah, let's do it!
00:26:58.000 I wouldn't go around that.
00:26:59.000 Come on, let's do it!
00:27:00.000 No, no, no, I don't want to do it.
00:27:01.000 Street Red is like tanking for both of you right now.
00:27:03.000 You know what my classic was?
00:27:04.000 Oh, we'll be talking about Jerry Seinfeld's piece there on New York that's being shown on CNN right now.
00:27:09.000 But we were so poor at one point that my parents couldn't get the album, the Chipmunks Christmas album.
00:27:14.000 They got the Happy Hamsters. 0.89
00:27:18.000 My parents got the Happy Hamsters and they got the open cassette tape because I assume it was the floor model.
00:27:25.000 Did your parents steal it?
00:27:26.000 It was just like a Rat Pack team sped up.
00:27:32.000 Oh, so they had the voices?
00:27:33.000 They had, yeah.
00:27:33.000 That's great.
00:27:34.000 And then they would have little sides like, Well, I saw Mommy kissing under the mistletoe last night, Melvin.
00:27:38.000 Oh, that's no fun.
00:27:39.000 Dad's not very happy about that.
00:27:40.000 That's why they collect it above scale.
00:27:43.000 A little addendum.
00:27:44.000 Alright.
00:27:45.000 They just read the lyrics?
00:27:46.000 It's the golden arcs.
00:27:47.000 It's not arches.
00:27:48.000 Okay, let's go to this article here, and I think you obviously have the thing there that we're going to be hitting for the fact-checking, because I want to read the rest of this article.
00:27:56.000 Oh, first, hit the notification bell, please.
00:27:58.000 Notification bell, and join Mug Club, because subscriptions don't mean a whole lot.
00:28:02.000 Every morning, Monday through Thursday, we do it at 10 a.m.
00:28:04.000 Eastern, unless there's breaking news, and we start maybe 15, 20 minutes late.
00:28:07.000 I had a day with Jacob Flake.
00:28:09.000 Thursday night, we'll be live-streaming the RNC... What did I say?
00:28:11.000 I said Flake.
00:28:12.000 It's Blake, actually.
00:28:13.000 It's Blake.
00:28:14.000 Oh, I said Flake?
00:28:15.000 Yeah, earlier you said you didn't want to say Flake and now it's in your head.
00:28:18.000 That's because I'm still thinking about how they stole our bubble tea!
00:28:24.000 That does take a minute to get over.
00:28:25.000 General Tso!
00:28:28.000 We was kings, man!
00:28:29.000 We was kings!
00:28:30.000 If you're going to claim something, why bubble tea?
00:28:34.000 Tea kings.
00:28:34.000 That's like the least cool thing to claim.
00:28:38.000 Dumb bitches be dumb. 1.00
00:28:39.000 Claim, claim, claim. 1.00
00:28:41.000 No, that's a term of endearment.
00:28:44.000 Okay, so this is one.
00:28:46.000 Let me bring this up here.
00:28:46.000 This is where they do fact check.
00:28:48.000 Fact check.
00:28:48.000 Hit it when I check the fact, okay?
00:28:53.000 Tim, the audio wait isn't on the soundboard today.
00:28:55.000 Trump Jr.
00:28:56.000 claims China wants Biden to win.
00:28:57.000 Here are the facts.
00:28:59.000 And this is the facts first from CNN.
00:29:00.000 This is what it says.
00:29:01.000 The U.S.
00:29:02.000 intelligence community did not determine that China preferred Biden because he would economically or otherwise weaken the U.S.
00:29:08.000 Rather, it outlined... This is a CNN fact check.
00:29:10.000 Rather, it outlined that China preferred that President Donald Trump lose the election because it was unpredictable and because of the many actions he has taken against China.
00:29:21.000 Oh! 0.60
00:29:21.000 Fact check! 0.60
00:29:24.000 No, no.
00:29:24.000 It's not that they want Biden to win.
00:29:27.000 It's that China, officially on record, wants Trump to lose.
00:29:31.000 So stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
00:29:34.000 This is from CNN right now.
00:29:40.000 I'm reading from themselves.
00:29:41.000 This is journalistic standards.
00:29:43.000 This is their fact check.
00:29:44.000 They're so nitpicking and they admit in their own fact check, which is labeled facts first, that they are wrong.
00:29:51.000 I can see the fact checkers sitting there watching going, what do we do?
00:29:56.000 Post it!
00:29:56.000 Post it!
00:29:57.000 There's so many people out of work right now, I'm so scared.
00:30:00.000 Let me just write, well, it's wrong, but let me just rephrase it.
00:30:02.000 Can I phrase it in the form of a question? 0.99
00:30:04.000 Where's Trebek, son of a bitch? 1.00
00:30:07.000 Print it. 1.00
00:30:07.000 Fact check. 1.00
00:30:08.000 That goes to print tomorrow.
00:30:11.000 Front page.
00:30:12.000 It's not that China wants Biden to win.
00:30:14.000 They don't want Trump to lose.
00:30:16.000 That'll throw them for a loop. 0.99
00:30:17.000 By the way, do we have a lead on that bubble tea bitch yet? 1.00
00:30:22.000 Fact check. 0.99
00:30:22.000 Trump Jr. 0.99
00:30:23.000 falsely says middle class has done better under Trump than Obama.
00:30:26.000 Here is their facts first.
00:30:28.000 And I don't need a fact check.
00:30:28.000 They fact check themselves.
00:30:29.000 Actually, middle class income grew in the final years of the Obama administration but has stagnated under Trump.
00:30:35.000 But that's not all.
00:30:36.000 Median household income stayed essentially flat in 2018 at $63,200, breaking a three-year streak of increases according to the most recent Census Bureau data.
00:30:46.000 Oh.
00:30:47.000 Self-check!
00:30:50.000 Actually, yeah, the first two, we have 2016, we have 2017, there was an increase.
00:30:55.000 And then it remained flat.
00:30:56.000 And then there was an increase, by the way, in 2019, which they don't talk about, and 2020, until the temporary pandemic, which is what you guys claim.
00:31:03.000 But yeah, listen, if you want to look at the actual numbers, Barack Obama, eight years, a $1,000 average income, middle class income increase.
00:31:09.000 Donald Trump, $5,000.
00:31:11.000 So notice they don't actually use the numbers there.
00:31:13.000 Sounds like a bit more.
00:31:14.000 And am I the only one who notices this? 0.97
00:31:15.000 Barack Obama is the only president in American history who, for some reason, when he was president, there was a time warp where he wasn't responsible for all the crap that happened.
00:31:25.000 While he was president, it was always George Bush's fault, and now all the success of Donald Trump is Barack Obama's doing. 0.99
00:31:31.000 Remember he would come and be like, I know I had to recover from a bad economy, from horrible policy, and I know that right now unemployment is terrible and drone strikes, but just watch, the next guy's gonna come in and I'll take credit for that shit. 0.99
00:31:46.000 That's all me. 0.99
00:31:48.000 And my wife, woman, Melania.
00:31:51.000 Sorry, Michelle.
00:31:53.000 But you know that if the economy were bad, now we know that if the economy's bad, it's Trump's fault.
00:31:58.000 If the economy's good, it's Barack Obama.
00:32:00.000 The thing is, it's not a standard we used before.
00:32:02.000 No one goes like, well, Reagan was only successful because of Carter.
00:32:06.000 Clinton was all HW.
00:32:09.000 Don't try and sell me that false bill of Bill Clinton goods.
00:32:12.000 We're crying out loud.
00:32:14.000 There's nothing that he can do right.
00:32:16.000 There really is nothing that he can do right at this point.
00:32:18.000 CNN acknowledges it themselves.
00:32:20.000 All right, we go down to... Do they have any more fact-checking?
00:32:23.000 Those are the only two.
00:32:24.000 Wow.
00:32:24.000 No, is that it?
00:32:26.000 They have more.
00:32:26.000 They do have more?
00:32:27.000 Where?
00:32:28.000 Oh, okay.
00:32:29.000 Here we go.
00:32:29.000 Here we go.
00:32:29.000 That's right.
00:32:30.000 I have to keep scrolling.
00:32:31.000 I have to keep scrolling.
00:32:31.000 Fact check.
00:32:32.000 Trump falls to Clinton's opponents of inventing postal workers.
00:32:34.000 Hold on a second.
00:32:36.000 Oh, what is it?
00:32:38.000 Okay.
00:32:38.000 Fact check.
00:32:39.000 Haley inaccurately suggests all Democrats want government-run health.
00:32:42.000 This is true of some Democrats, but it's not a policy Joe Biden supports.
00:32:46.000 While he does advocate broadening the government's involvement in the nation's healthcare system, he does not back so-called single-payer programs like Medicare for All, which were pushed by others in the primary.
00:32:56.000 Hold on a second.
00:32:57.000 Unironic self fact check.
00:32:59.000 Unironic self fact check.
00:33:01.000 Yeah, he was the one who did the healthcare mandate.
00:33:03.000 Yeah, it was a death march.
00:33:05.000 That was a death march.
00:33:06.000 And by the way, before the mandate, he and Barack Obama pushed for a public option, which they had to scrap. 0.51
00:33:12.000 So keep in mind, they said that if they had, he did puss. 0.96
00:33:15.000 He did puss. 0.99
00:33:15.000 He's got a wonderful puss. 0.99
00:33:16.000 I prefer the term puttem. 0.98
00:33:18.000 It's been ruined through years of bubble tea.
00:33:21.000 Thank your Zambian appropriated victims, Joe Biden. 0.99
00:33:26.000 Oh my god, so this is what they say.
00:33:28.000 No, Joe Biden and Barack, it would be a lot different if he were an unknown like Donald Trump.
00:33:33.000 These were arguments that could be used.
00:33:35.000 This man, he is only a record.
00:33:38.000 He's a walking record of failures on race, on healthcare, on guns, not only policy-wise, but even knowing About any of these things.
00:33:47.000 He thinks that if you aim a double-barreled... He thinks that you can scare off intruders and a woman can protect her house by aiming a double-barreled shotgun in the sky!
00:33:56.000 Which is illegal in most places, by the way.
00:33:57.000 Totally illegal!
00:33:58.000 Totally safe, I don't know.
00:34:00.000 They gotta come down from time to time. 0.99
00:34:01.000 Maximo Alvarez is sitting there in Florida on his poor sex. 1.00
00:34:04.000 Son of a bitch! 1.00
00:34:05.000 What's going on? 1.00
00:34:06.000 Is it hailing?
00:34:06.000 What is this?
00:34:09.000 This is not the country I know.
00:34:11.000 Oh my gosh.
00:34:12.000 They're going to put clips up.
00:34:14.000 Joe, isn't this you saying that universal health care is a good thing?
00:34:17.000 That's not me. 0.98
00:34:17.000 Shut that up. 0.98
00:34:17.000 I don't understand. 0.98
00:34:18.000 No, no, no.
00:34:20.000 Okay, here you go.
00:34:20.000 Here's another fact check.
00:34:22.000 Jim Jordan claims Democrats are trying to confiscate U.S.
00:34:24.000 citizens' guns.
00:34:25.000 This is CNN.
00:34:26.000 It says, facts first.
00:34:27.000 Some Democrats have supported a mandatory gun confiscation buyback.
00:34:31.000 Joe Biden, the Democratic nominee, instead supports a voluntary buyback program.
00:34:36.000 Hold on a second.
00:34:37.000 Some Democrats.
00:34:38.000 Do you mean like Beto O'Rourke, who you promised would be your gun czar?
00:34:43.000 Yeah.
00:34:48.000 Joe Biden said, who's the most extreme person I can find on guns?
00:34:52.000 Beto O'Rourke.
00:34:53.000 Oh yeah, we're going to take your guns.
00:34:54.000 Yeah, he's like that guy.
00:34:55.000 He said, hell yeah, we're going to take your guns.
00:34:57.000 Watch this kickflip. 0.98
00:34:58.000 And he, and Joe Biden, like Joe Biden picked, that's why, in case you've noticed, he hasn't really been talking about Beto.
00:35:04.000 And Beto's been losing weight like he's Tom Hanks in Philadelphia because of all the stress.
00:35:08.000 He's like, I'm going to be the gun czar, the suspense is killing me.
00:35:11.000 I don't think you're going to be because that would be the equivalent to Joe Biden saying, hey, can someone guarantee me a loss on this election?
00:35:19.000 Can I find the guy who said he will take all of your firearms away and make them my guns are amidst the surging crime and record violent assaults occurring at major cities across this country with more first-time gun buyers than ever in the history of the United States including Democrats?
00:35:35.000 Yeah yeah yeah I'm gonna stick with Beto O'Rourke.
00:35:39.000 I'm gonna stick with Francis.
00:35:41.000 As if Democrats didn't already have a law and order problem. 0.51
00:35:43.000 We don't need any more.
00:35:44.000 For credo, loud!
00:35:46.000 It reads so much worse.
00:35:48.000 This is honestly, I'm more convinced than ever that Joe Biden is going to lose when I'm reading CNN clearly trying to carry his water.
00:35:55.000 I mean, do you think those guys are going to reread the facts and be like, this was a really bad idea?
00:35:58.000 This was a bad idea.
00:35:59.000 What were we thinking?
00:36:01.000 Might not look good off the cuff.
00:36:02.000 You know, this would have been a lot better if Biden had actually given us comment, but he was too busy talking about whaps with Cardi B in Buzzfeed.
00:36:11.000 He was too busy giving an interview to the website that has single-handedly create clickbait listicles.
00:36:16.000 He's a busy man.
00:36:17.000 He's a busy man.
00:36:18.000 He's got stuff going on.
00:36:19.000 But where's Macaulay Culkin?
00:36:20.000 That's what I want to know.
00:36:21.000 Where is he now?
00:36:22.000 Yeah, where is he now?
00:36:23.000 What?
00:36:23.000 It's always those pop-up ads that are like, to child actors who are dead.
00:36:26.000 You're like, oh my god, Macaulay Culkin?
00:36:27.000 And you're like, no, he's still alive.
00:36:28.000 No, it's other, not him.
00:36:30.000 Elijah Wood.
00:36:31.000 Elijah Wood.
00:36:32.000 He has a picture of him back from Avalon days.
00:36:35.000 And you're like, what?
00:36:36.000 Oh my gosh, he never grew up.
00:36:37.000 He must have progeria.
00:36:40.000 Let me see.
00:36:40.000 Is there anything else?
00:36:41.000 Fact check.
00:36:41.000 Donald Trump claimed that Biden called the President xenophobic.
00:36:43.000 Here's what we know.
00:36:45.000 Facts first!

00:36:46.000 Biden did accuse Trump of xenophobia.
00:36:48.000 That's it!

00:36:51.000 Fact check.
00:36:55.000 Great job.
00:36:56.000 It goes from fact check.
00:36:57.000 Donald Trump Jr.
00:36:58.000 claimed that Biden called him xenophobic.
00:37:01.000 Here's what we know.
00:37:01.000 The very first phrase.
00:37:03.000 Biden did accuse Trump of xenophobia.
00:37:05.000 Well, there you go.
00:37:06.000 Why do a fact check?
00:37:09.000 Why do anything?
00:37:10.000 It's just like you saying, hey.
00:37:12.000 It's like, facts first. 0.51
00:37:13.000 I'm really shitty at my job. 0.99
00:37:15.000 Yeah, we just suck, I mean. 0.98
00:37:17.000 Facts first. 0.99
00:37:18.000 This is the outfit that puts Stelter on prime time.
00:37:20.000 You came here for a fact check?
00:37:22.000 We can't be bothered to do our due diligence.
00:37:25.000 We're too busy hooking Stelter up to a pudding IV.
00:37:28.000 They needed 15 fact checks and they were running a little low.
00:37:31.000 I just need a few more.
00:37:32.000 What are you going to put up?
00:37:34.000 Let me read the rest of this because I have to.
00:37:35.000 Facts first.
00:37:36.000 Biden did accuse Trump of xenophobia in an Iowa campaign speech the same day, January 31st, at Health and Human Services.
00:37:42.000 But it was not clear if Biden was even aware of the travel restrictions at the time.
00:37:47.000 And his campaign says he wasn't.
00:37:49.000 Well listen, that can be a defense for anything with Joe Biden.
00:37:52.000 It really can at this point.
00:37:53.000 He wasn't aware of Donald Trump's policies at that time.
00:37:57.000 Really?
00:37:57.000 What was he aware of?
00:37:59.000 Soup?
00:37:59.000 We're not really certain.
00:38:02.000 He was milling around the basement.
00:38:05.000 Soup's made good.
00:38:06.000 It's warm on my face.
00:38:08.000 Hey Joe Biden, what do you have?
00:38:10.000 It's a warm egg.
00:38:11.000 That's Joe Biden.
00:38:12.000 It's a Cuban Joe Biden.
00:38:13.000 I wouldn't be surprised if that's what he does when he goes on Telemundo.
00:38:15.000 When he's by himself.
00:38:16.000 Yeah.
00:38:16.000 He's a warm egg.
00:38:17.000 They're like, hey, Joe Biden, what do you have every day in your European carry-all?
00:38:21.000 A hot sauce!
00:38:23.000 A hot!
00:38:24.000 Joe, stop.
00:38:26.000 It's embarrassing.
00:38:27.000 I know.
00:38:27.000 Every time.
00:38:28.000 Every time we go out, Joe, stop.
00:38:30.000 He's not even aware of his general surrounding.
00:38:33.000 He has less response on an EEG than someone on dialysis in an induced coma.
00:38:38.000 Joe, are you alive?
00:38:39.000 Huh?
00:38:39.000 Huh?
00:38:40.000 What?
00:38:40.000 So this is a fact check.
00:38:41.000 The very first statement is, he did accuse Donald Trump of xenophobia, but we're not sure if he knew exactly why because he's retarded. 1.00
00:38:51.000 No, but it was for different reasons.
00:38:53.000 I don't think we said that the reasons mattered.
00:38:55.000 He just accused him of being xenophobic.
00:38:57.000 Donald Trump claimed that Biden called the President xenophobic.
00:38:59.000 Here's what we know.
00:39:00.000 He did call him xenophobic!
00:39:01.000 It doesn't matter why!
00:39:02.000 Well, he called him xenophobic, but not because of that.
00:39:05.000 Which, by the way, is anyone else surprised that, uh, if you want to talk about racism, we were on the show, and I remember someone saying, oh, you might get in trouble for that, when they were wearing the African garb. 0.98
00:39:14.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:39:15.000 And we just started laughing our asses off because it was going on live. 0.99
00:39:18.000 And then everyone gave them crap. 0.99
00:39:20.000 If you want to talk about cultural appropriation, listen. 0.99
00:39:23.000 Somebody's selling Ethiopian food.
00:39:24.000 I love Ethiopian food.
00:39:25.000 You get the spongy bread, you dip it, right?
00:39:27.000 It's fun.
00:39:27.000 It's a lot of fun.
00:39:28.000 It's communal.
00:39:29.000 But then they're up there wearing your clothing, which are you, which is often used ceremoniously.
00:39:35.000 And there's completely tone-deaf.
00:39:37.000 Yeah, where's that lady with the cell phone? 1.00
00:39:39.000 You guys are taking my culture!
00:39:45.000 She's the kind who shows up to a Chinese street fair where they're doing that dragon, you know, like the little rascals. 1.00
00:39:50.000 She's like, OH NO! 0.95
00:39:51.000 NO! 1.00
00:39:53.000 STOP THAT SHIT! 1.00
00:39:56.000 THAT'S WHAT MALCOLM X WAS TALKING ABOUT! 1.00
00:39:59.000 This right here!
00:40:00.000 She's fun at parties, man.
00:40:01.000 Just a ton of fun.
00:40:03.000 She is the black equivalent of... She's an African-American uneducated Karen. 1.00
00:40:11.000 If she goes around with bubble tea as like number one on her hit list, can you imagine her life? 0.91
00:40:15.000 Like everything she sees... Oh, it's all on her hit list.
00:40:18.000 I guarantee if you dig it, she's been doing it everywhere. 0.99
00:40:20.000 She's like showing up at Talbot's.
00:40:21.000 No!
00:40:22.000 No!
00:40:23.000 She's like, Subways? 1.00
00:40:25.000 No!
00:40:25.000 Wakanda had Subways!
00:40:27.000 You're just appropriating our transportation system! 0.97
00:40:29.000 Subway!
00:40:29.000 Jared!
00:40:30.000 Black, we don't know what's going on there! 1.00
00:40:32.000 No, I don't know what's going on there. 0.87
00:40:34.000 You know!
00:40:36.000 What? 1.00
00:40:37.000 I take a flatbread, bitch! 1.00
00:40:42.000 Black Forest ham? 1.00
00:40:43.000 What is she gonna do, starve? 1.00
00:40:44.000 Yeah, right. 1.00
00:40:46.000 Bitch gotta eat! 1.00
00:40:49.000 Oh my gosh. 1.00
00:40:50.000 Bubble tea!
00:40:51.000 Bubble tea.
00:40:52.000 Of all the things!
00:40:53.000 Of all the hills to die on, I mean, come on. 0.99
00:40:56.000 It's the most clearly gross Chinese thing. 1.00
00:40:59.000 Or whatever. 0.90
00:40:59.000 Korean is a Korean, is a Chinese, is a Vietnamese. 0.90
00:41:02.000 Asian.
00:41:02.000 Just call it Asian.
00:41:02.000 Vietnamese?
00:41:03.000 Asian.
00:41:03.000 Okay, let me be clear here.
00:41:05.000 I know that China, Vietnam, North-South Korea, or as I like to call them, bad Korea, good Korea, Taiwan. 0.92
00:41:10.000 Right, I get that they're all different countries. 0.59
00:41:11.000 But when it comes to food, with the exception of Korean barbecue, it's pretty gross.
00:41:17.000 It's from Taiwan.
00:41:18.000 So, it's from Taiwan?
00:41:20.000 Taiwanese bubble tea.
00:41:22.000 Taiwanese?
00:41:24.000 Let them have it! 1.00
00:41:25.000 Not a whole lot comes out of there, you crazy African, you crazy POC bitch! 1.00
00:41:31.000 There's not a whole lot coming out of there. 1.00
00:41:33.000 It's just action figures, because they already have the molds, and bubble tea!
00:41:37.000 Let them have the win! 0.98
00:41:38.000 Those molds last longer. 0.96
00:41:39.000 You guys had a president!
00:41:41.000 And as an objective, basic white guy observer, let the Taiwanese have a win! 0.92
00:41:47.000 All right, we are going to come back, actually, with Elijah Schaefer, who's on the ground in Kenosha.
00:41:53.000 But before that, we are going to go to one of our wonderful sponsors, ExpressVPN.
00:41:57.000 We'll be right back with Elijah Schafer.
00:42:13.000 Made it.
00:42:15.000 Excellent.
00:42:16.000 Now all you have to do is access that fascist computer mainframe. 0.54
00:42:23.000 This will be too easy. 0.97
00:42:25.000 Smash the th- Oh my non-conforming, genderless, non-binary, two-spirited god. 1.00
00:42:33.000 What's happening? 0.93
00:42:33.000 Did they find you? 0.93
00:42:35.000 No.
00:42:35.000 They have no search history.
00:42:36.000 Abort! 0.99
00:42:37.000 Abort! 0.99
00:42:37.000 River Moon, get out of there! 0.99
00:42:39.000 I'm sorry, I'm sorry!
00:42:41.000 I'm sorry!
00:42:43.000 I'm sorry! 0.99
00:42:46.000 Goddamn loopy, give me what you gotta! 0.99
00:42:49.000 At least what you do online is your business. 0.99
00:42:53.000 Protect your business.
00:42:55.000 ExpressVPN.
00:43:02.000 Alright, by the way, I do want to make sure you know it's ExpressVPN.com
00:43:11.000 slash Crowder.
00:43:12.000 You actually get an extra three months of ExpressVPN for free.
00:43:16.000 Everyone talks about social media censorship. Before we get to that,
00:43:20.000 how about you protect your data from the big tech giants?
00:43:23.000 So using a VPN is really easy.
00:43:27.000 ExpressVPN is really easy to use once it's on your phone, once it's on your laptop. We use it all the time.
00:43:29.000 We use it for figuring out the YouTube algorithms with Toffee Gabbard and myself.
00:43:35.000 So I owe a personal debt of gratitude, because I'm sure that ExpressVPN, long before they were sponsored, played a significant role in us being remonetized.
00:43:41.000 Thank you!
00:43:42.000 Thank you.
00:43:43.000 So you're saying that social media companies don't have our best interests at heart?
00:43:45.000 They don't love us personally?
00:43:46.000 Well, I don't know about that.
00:43:49.000 We're getting into he said, she said.
00:43:51.000 I like to think that they love me and care about me as a person.
00:43:53.000 Let's back to it.
00:43:53.000 Let's see.
00:43:54.000 Well, you live, you learn.
00:43:55.000 Oh, man.
00:43:57.000 Que sera, sera.
00:43:58.000 Fool me once.
00:43:58.000 That's a few more platitudes.
00:43:59.000 Fool me once.
00:44:00.000 Fool me once.
00:44:02.000 Well, they're like oil and water.
00:44:05.000 Better to have loved and lost.
00:44:05.000 Get a room, you two!
00:44:06.000 Alright, it is ExpressVPN.com slash Crowder.
00:44:11.000 I really do appreciate their support and it's a useful product.
00:44:13.000 Alright, we have on the show right now, he's been on the ground for us before in Dallas when the riots were first starting, and now he is in Kenosha, Wisconsin.
00:44:21.000 Elijah Schaefer, are you there, sir?
00:44:22.000 Can you hear me?
00:44:25.000 Yeah, I can hear you.
00:44:26.000 I'm actually outside of the DNC looking real good.
00:44:31.000 If you really notice this, this is actually the best convention that we've had so far for Joe Biden.
00:44:37.000 This is kind of what you're going to get.
00:44:39.000 A lot of this.
00:44:41.000 It looks like when I'm done with a bonus round in Super Street Fighter.
00:44:44.000 It's true.
00:44:48.000 The key is to high kick with the shot kick with Ryu.
00:44:51.000 You win.
00:44:52.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:44:53.000 You know, actually, what's kind of funny, I mean, it's hard to say this is funny when this is someone's entire livelihood destroyed, but right near here, about a block away, there's the Democrat building for the left.
00:45:05.000 So it's boarded up with every other business.
00:45:08.000 The buildings around it have been burned to the ground, dozens of cars set on fire, and they have a nice little banner above their boarded up store that says, Well that'll teach that parking lot to not support men who are serial violent offenders with a warrant out for current sexual assault, domestic abuse, and wrestling with cops.
00:45:28.000 So that'll teach them!
00:45:29.000 I think we're all learning a little bit about ourselves.
00:45:32.000 Right now, I want to go to a clip really quickly and then ask your question on this, Elijah Schaefer, where someone, I believe this is your footage, aimed an actual gun at you yesterday in Kenosha, of course, the place where Jacob Blake was shot by police.
00:45:45.000 Let's go to the clip.
00:45:49.000 Did you guys hear that click, by the way?
00:45:52.000 Bring up that last screen grab right there if we can.
00:45:56.000 If you were to see a rifle round go through the side of that skull right now, it would be entirely appropriate for the police to do.
00:46:03.000 Because he aimed, and a click, that just as easily could have been a boom and a life is over.
00:46:07.000 And some people consider that a tragedy.
00:46:09.000 I don't.
00:46:11.000 Because that could just as easily have been a reporter, Elijah Schaefer.
00:46:15.000 That was a real gun.
00:46:16.000 Was he dropping the hammer on you, Elijah?
00:46:19.000 This again is in Kenosha.
00:46:21.000 Did he pull the trigger?
00:46:23.000 Sorry, just if you notice, I transferred into the office.
00:46:26.000 You look an executive.
00:46:27.000 I like your office.
00:46:27.000 Wow.
00:46:28.000 Yeah, you know, hey guys, here at BlazeTV, they give us a really good budget, like you said, ExpressVPN.
00:46:34.000 I mean, look what it provides.
00:46:35.000 Anyway.
00:46:35.000 It's got a fun chouette to it.
00:46:36.000 Trespassing is a crime.
00:46:39.000 Yeah, yeah, exactly.
00:46:40.000 But no, I mean, out here there's no laws.
00:46:42.000 And yeah, he pointed a gun at my face.
00:46:44.000 I think he just accidentally dry-fired it.
00:46:46.000 So you know when you accidentally pull the trigger on a gun? 0.99
00:46:48.000 No, I don't because I'm not an idiot. 0.87
00:46:52.000 I literally have never accidentally dry-fired a gun in my life. 0.98
00:46:56.000 You know how when you point a gun at people's faces you pull the trigger?
00:46:58.000 You're not living here, here's what's crazy.
00:47:03.000 You're not, this is not where rules exist.
00:47:05.000 Like, good is evil, evil is good.
00:47:07.000 These are peaceful protesters.
00:47:09.000 What your viewers don't understand is like, every shot of glass is just like a drop in the bucket.
00:47:14.000 This is peace, this is peaceful.
00:47:16.000 Glass shards.
00:47:17.000 Someone actually took a little Pepsi.
00:47:20.000 I mean, this is what peace looks like.
00:47:21.000 And safety first is lighting your city on fire and then accidentally almost shooting a reporter on the ground.
00:47:28.000 Because who knows and who says, like Obama said at the DMC, you know, these are peaceful.
00:47:33.000 They're peacefully shooting people, peacefully committing arson.
00:47:37.000 I mean, there's peaceful destruction, peaceful assault.
00:47:41.000 I mean, peace has a whole new meaning in 2020, and I'm not sure I understand it.
00:47:45.000 Well, that's just because you apparently have taken firearm safety courses, so there's a cultural disconnect. 1.00
00:47:51.000 Double D, bitch! 1.00
00:47:53.000 Let me ask you this. 1.00
00:47:54.000 How do you compare what's going on now in Kenosha, by the way, of all places?
00:47:57.000 We always thought this would happen in major cities.
00:47:59.000 Milwaukee, Chicago, New York.
00:48:01.000 But Kenosha, Wisconsin, is where it's happening now.
00:48:05.000 How would you say this compares to what we saw after George Floyd in places like Dallas, where you helped report for us?
00:48:10.000 And by the way, I also want to make sure people know that your channel is slightly offensive on YouTube.
00:48:14.000 How does this compare to post-George Floyd?
00:48:18.000 Okay, well, I don't know what this does for George, considering the fact that some of these Businesses are actually black-owned businesses and minority-owned businesses.
00:48:28.000 But what's the most important thing here is this is actually kind of worse than the Minneapolis in a lot of ways because there was at least 10 structure fires.
00:48:35.000 They burnt down a credit union.
00:48:36.000 They burnt down the youth correctional facility.
00:48:39.000 They burnt down the office furniture supply store because nothing says, uh, let's end police brutality like burning a L-shaped office desk, you know, really helping the community there.
00:48:52.000 Symbol of oppression.
00:48:55.000 I don't like IKEA! 1.00
00:48:56.000 I can't read Swedish, bitch! 1.00
00:48:59.000 Yeah, you know, what is the worst issue, too? 1.00
00:49:03.000 I mean, I think there was even a Chevy Impala that was burned here as well.
00:49:06.000 And so, I mean, these are cars the black community could have used.
00:49:09.000 They would have liked some of these.
00:49:11.000 Well, I won't shed any tears until the Chrysler 2000 or whatever it is has been burned down.
00:49:16.000 And that's my culture.
00:49:17.000 Let me ask you something.
00:49:17.000 What happened last night?
00:49:20.000 Yeah.
00:49:21.000 What happened with... well, Dodge Caravan should update their software because it's like driving in a 1992 vehicle.
00:49:27.000 What happened last night with... there was law enforcement.
00:49:30.000 Again, Kenosha, Wisconsin.
00:49:31.000 For people who don't know, Elijah Schaefer.
00:49:32.000 There was a curfew.
00:49:33.000 The National Guard was deployed.
00:49:34.000 It looks like... and keep in mind, Kenosha is not nearly as big of a city as a lot of these other places.
00:49:38.000 It looks like the rioters had free reign of the city.
00:49:41.000 I mean, this looked like it was happening on a grand scale.
00:49:44.000 Can you clarify for us?
00:49:46.000 Yeah, so they said they were deploying about 125 National Guard to help out county and state troopers and police.
00:49:55.000 I don't know how, if like in the middle of, you know, safely firing a firearm in someone's face,
00:50:01.000 they also like don't know how to count out here because they grossly under-provided the amount
00:50:07.000 of officers they needed. I think they had about a hundred in total with like 1500 to 2000 rioters.
00:50:13.000 So I don't know, I'm not like that good with fractions, but usually that doesn't turn out so well.
00:50:18.000 No.
00:50:18.000 And they, the police didn't, weren't making arrests.
00:50:22.000 There was no contact.
00:50:23.000 They stayed at the, at the county courthouse.
00:50:27.000 But the, the people, it took, I think the total response time for fire trucks to come to put out building fires was approximately like 57 minutes.
00:50:36.000 So it took almost an hour for, for fire departments to come.
00:50:40.000 But there's, this is where, this is where I'm just like, what the, Okay.
00:50:44.000 you know, what is going on?
00:50:46.000 We got the state of emergency alert on our cell phones right through the warning system,
00:50:53.000 about an 8 p.m. curfew at 8.22 p.m.
