Louder with Crowder - ELON MUSK & TIM COOK COME FACE-TO-FACE IN SECRET MEETING! | Louder with Crowder

00:00:01.000 Hey, glad to be with you.

00:00:01.000 We'll continue our series of A Ladder with Crowder Bible Stories in a second.

00:00:05.000 Just wanted to kind of issue this call to action here.

00:00:08.000 Do you know anyone out there who is in need this Christmas?

00:00:10.000 We're going to be doing a big Christmas special December 15th.

00:00:14.000 If you watched last year's, we'll have a link in the description.

00:00:16.000 We just did basically a whole two hours with Santa Claus, I guess Crowder Claus, I don't know, Santa Claus, and helped out families in need and did some stuff with children.

00:00:26.000 It was a lot of fun.

00:00:26.000 Honestly, one of the most fun shows that I've ever done this year.

00:00:29.000 We'll be delivering Christmas baskets, or we'll be delivering checks, whatever people need.

00:00:34.000 So if you can email me at CrowderChristmas at loudearthcrowder.com.

00:00:38.000 Someone who you think could really use this, or maybe it's yourself, please send your email at CrowderChristmas at loudearthcrowder.com.

00:00:43.000 We're looking forward to doing that December 15th.

00:00:46.000 And giving back, also.

00:00:48.000 Something, you know, if you people haven't done it yet, if you come out to a live show, there's something really special, especially around this season, in being surrounded by like-minded people, knowing that you're not alone.

00:00:56.000 New Jersey is sold out this weekend, but there are still tickets in Baltimore, I think, yeah, December 3rd, this Saturday.

00:01:02.000 And keep in mind, there's always about 2% of tickets that release the day of.

00:01:05.000 People couldn't find a sitter, or, you know, people weren't able to make it.

00:01:09.000 So if you walk up, find out when the ticket counter opens up, you might be able to snag yourself one day of.

00:01:13.000 But get there early.

00:01:14.000 On with the show Bible stories.

00:01:16.000 Samson, I just don't understand why you won't tell me what would make you as weak as any

00:01:26.000 other man.

00:01:27.000 What?

00:01:28.000 What?

00:01:29.000 Is that a... Of course not!

00:01:29.000 I repeat, what?

00:01:31.000 Why would I tell you that?

00:01:32.000 Oh, you don't trust me?

00:01:33.000 Is that it?

00:01:34.000 Is that a serious question?

00:01:35.000 Is that a serious question?

00:01:37.000 Of course I don't trust you!

00:01:38.000 The last time we went out for drink Tuesday at happy hour, You said, hey, what would make you as weak as any, you remember?

00:01:43.000 What would make you as weak as any other man? 0.97

00:01:44.000 I said, oh, I don't know, I don't know.

00:01:46.000 We had a couple of daiquiris in it.

00:01:47.000 Oh, you know what?

00:01:48.000 If I wake up tied in fresh ropes, lo and behold, the very next morning, tied with fresh ropes!

00:01:54.000 They still smell like new ropes! 0.79

00:01:55.000 That was a sex thing, Samson. 0.95

00:01:58.000 Oh, it was a sex thing, was it?

00:02:00.000 Was it, was it a sex thing?

00:02:02.000 Because I don't remember any sex as part of that thing. 0.94

00:02:05.000 Oh, while we're on the subject, And next time, what would make you as weak as any other man? 0.99

00:02:09.000 Why don't you trust me?

00:02:10.000 And I tell you, you know, if someone were to tie my hair in a weave, I would lose all my power and I'd wake up like this!

00:02:17.000 Who would love the new look?

00:02:19.000 Who would love this new look?

00:02:21.000 Who, my boy George?

00:02:22.000 No one likes this look.

00:02:23.000 Simpson, I just need you to trust me.

00:02:25.000 Oh, you need me to trust you.

00:02:27.000 Okay, now we're at the point where we talk about your needs.

00:02:29.000 Forget about my needs at all.

00:02:31.000 There's a strongest man in the world who's actually tasked with ensuring the bloodline of the Lord's people effectively.

00:02:38.000 Do you have any idea how hard it is? 0.85

00:02:40.000 To kill over a dozen people with the jawbone of a donkey? 0.96

00:02:43.000 No, do you know how hard it is to actually get a jawbone off a donkey? 0.99

00:02:48.000 It isn't gonna work if you don't trust me!

00:02:54.000 Okay.

00:02:56.000 Box.

00:02:57.000 Boundaries.

00:02:58.000 No boundaries.

00:02:59.000 We need to work on this together.

00:03:00.000 We're a team.

00:03:02.000 We are not each other's enemy.

00:03:05.000 My hair.

00:03:06.000 That's the source of all my power.

00:03:06.000 Okay?

00:03:08.000 You want me to trust you?

00:03:10.000 There it is.

00:03:10.000 I'm being vulnerable instead of angry because anger is not an emotion, it simply masks the real emotion, we know that.

00:03:15.000 that my hair were cut I'd be as weak as any other man. 1.00

00:03:22.000 Shit. 0.99

00:03:29.000 I'm sorry. 0.99

00:03:36.000 I'm sorry.

00:03:41.000 I'm gonna stay in your heart, that's what I know You're gonna stay in your heart, you're beautiful

00:04:04.000 I'm gonna stay in your heart, you're beautiful Ow

00:04:15.000 Ow! 1.00

00:04:18.000 That was a lot hotter than I expected.

00:04:20.000 Not a little bit.

00:04:21.000 A lot.

00:04:21.000 I'm talking Sue McDonald's coffee hot.

00:04:25.000 Which, by the way, if you don't know about that case, believe me, I'm against frivolous lawsuits.

00:04:30.000 If you think, oh, she sued McDonald's for hot coffee. 1.00

00:04:32.000 It was rough.

00:04:32.000 No, no.

00:04:33.000 I'm burning it.

00:04:34.000 It was a real... It's real.

00:04:37.000 I'm Freddie Koochker.

00:04:38.000 Oh, come on now. 0.98

00:04:40.000 So, we have a lot to get to today.

00:04:43.000 If some of it seems remedial, there is some relevancy to Elizabeth Warren wanting to control all of the flow of information as she's speaking out against Elon Musk.

00:04:52.000 We also know a little bit more about what's going on between Elon Musk and Apple, and we know what's been happening with Twitter before Elon Musk as it relates to election meddling.

00:04:59.000 Not everything, but again, this is the war of our time.

00:05:02.000 This is the most important battle of your time.

00:05:04.000 It's the battle of information, and something I really have wanted to talk about for a while, but I needed to lay out a case.

00:05:08.000 All references are available at ladarthcreditor.com.

00:05:11.000 And it's my question of the day.

00:05:11.000 Do you believe that the middle class is shrinking?

00:05:14.000 If you are Gen Z, if you're a younger millennial, do you feel as though, or do you think, I should say, let's eliminate feel from the lexicon, do you think that it is harder for you to achieve the American dream than your parents who are likely in the, you know, baby boomer generation?

00:05:27.000 There's some truth to it, and I think that conservatives, Republicans would do well to hear it, but it's not the truth that you think it is, and the solution is freedom and more options because there's also a silver lining where you can live much, much more luxuriously than your parents if you make decisions.

00:05:44.000 The problem is the decisions that you have to make fly in the face of every decision that you are told to make from kindergarten all the way through university.

00:05:52.000 Also, women's soccer equality.

00:05:52.000 So we're talking about that.

00:05:54.000 Yay! 0.99

00:05:55.000 They're getting paid as much as the, uh, the man-ish.

00:06:02.000 Before we get to that, Gerald A., how are you?

00:06:03.000 I'm doing well, how are you doing?

00:06:05.000 I'm good, but Toolman adjusted my headphones, now it sounds like I'm in a pool.

00:06:07.000 Are these new headphones?

00:06:09.000 Oh, they look nice.

00:06:10.000 Are they new headphones?

00:06:11.000 No.

00:06:12.000 Now it's all muffled, I don't give a sh- I don't like- I have a big head.

00:06:17.000 We don't have headphone kind of money here.

00:06:19.000 I have famous guy head and I'm not that famous.

00:06:22.000 You do have a movie star head.

00:06:23.000 That's not bad, though.

00:06:24.000 Well, you know his movie star head is Josh Brolin.

00:06:26.000 He's like a walking bobblehead.

00:06:28.000 Well, he has Easter Island head.

00:06:29.000 Yes, he does!

00:06:31.000 His head was constructed by ancient Druids. 0.99

00:06:34.000 You know him, you love him.

00:06:35.000 Of course, we are in Baltimore, December 3rd.

00:06:38.000 You can go and get your tickets there.

00:06:39.000 It's our last show of the year together, Rebels With a Cause Tour.

00:06:41.000 Dave Landau, how are you?

00:06:42.000 Ahoy, good.

00:06:43.000 How about you, man?

00:06:44.000 You're wearing a vest, so really you only get cold here.

00:06:44.000 Good.

00:06:46.000 But it's because I wanted to show off one of the shirts in the merch shop.

00:06:50.000 So your arms don't get cold.

00:06:52.000 Correct.

00:06:52.000 Now I'm going to button it.

00:06:56.000 Oh good, it doesn't.

00:06:57.000 Oh, you suffer from cold sternum as well.

00:07:00.000 Mine is mainly because it's titanium.

00:07:02.000 I do.

00:07:02.000 My arms run hot.

00:07:03.000 Do they?

00:07:06.000 We all have our cross to bear.

00:07:08.000 Mine is a titanium cross in my chest.

00:07:12.000 No, I didn't realize this is the first time where it's been really cold.

00:07:15.000 It gets cold.

00:07:16.000 I can feel the cold bars.

00:07:19.000 Oh, I remember last year when I kept falling and cracking my head on the ice outside.

00:07:24.000 Yeah, it did happen.

00:07:24.000 Oh, that's true.

00:07:25.000 But yeah, I was insulated.

00:07:26.000 Okay, so before we move on with the rest of the news, and again, this is what's happening with what's been going on with big tech with Twitter.

00:07:32.000 This is a big deal.

00:07:34.000 It's one billionaire one Elizabeth Warren?

00:07:37.000 She just can't catch a break. 1.00

00:07:38.000 Poor girl. 1.00

00:07:39.000 of the other wealthy elite and you are seeing this coalition, you're seeing them all coalesce

00:07:43.000 right now saying, oh, we're going to start losing some power.

00:07:46.000 So you are now seeing everyone's true colors.

00:07:48.000 So yes, this subject matter is important to cover.

00:07:51.000 And if it seems repetitive to some people, there's always a new development because there's

00:07:54.000 always new information that is made available.

00:07:57.000 Elizabeth Warren, she just can't catch a break. 1.00

00:08:00.000 Poor girl. 1.00

00:08:01.000 That's what happens every time you speak.

00:08:03.000 If it's a lie.

00:08:04.000 Well, yeah.

00:08:05.000 Well, she's a politician, so we just assume that. 1.00

00:08:07.000 But she's also, yeah, she's also white. 0.98

00:08:09.000 Wait, no?

00:08:09.000 No.

00:08:10.000 Not Native American? 0.95

00:08:11.000 Is my cookbook incorrect?

00:08:11.000 Zero parts.

00:08:13.000 Yes.

00:08:14.000 Yeah, didn't you think it was weird that the Sioux were cooking enchiladas? 0.99

00:08:18.000 Ah, I thought it was strange.

00:08:21.000 This is the Salisbury Iroquois steak.

00:08:24.000 The bangers and mash of buffalo?

00:08:27.000 Yes.

00:08:29.000 Which, by the way, they had to substitute the buffalo meat because they hunted them to extinction.

00:08:32.000 True.

00:08:33.000 See with all the colors of the forest.

00:08:36.000 So a Vancouver woman has now approached parental rights activists, I believe this is in Canada because it's Vancouver, to confront the people who are confronting the drag queen activists who are sexualizing their children.

00:08:49.000 But this woman doesn't have a problem with it and she makes salient points. 0.98

00:08:54.000 Yeah, we should be doing that.

00:08:55.000 How is a human being dressing how they want to dress sexualizing anything?

00:08:59.000 It's a human body.

00:09:00.000 Why is that a sexual thing?

00:09:01.000 So you think adults should be able to wear whatever they want?

00:09:04.000 Sure.

00:09:05.000 Canadians are really uptight.

00:09:05.000 Sure.

00:09:07.000 Sure.

00:09:08.000 Why not?

00:09:09.000 It's a body.

00:09:09.000 It's a human body.

00:09:10.000 Why not?

00:09:11.000 It's a human body.

00:09:12.000 Should we have naked men reading to little kids? 1.00

00:09:15.000 It's a human body.

00:09:15.000 Sure.

00:09:16.000 Okay, so look, I don't entirely disagree with the point, even though she's gross. 1.00

00:09:21.000 The last point we all disagree with.

00:09:22.000 Yeah.

00:09:23.000 What?

00:09:23.000 Should we have naked men reading to children?

00:09:25.000 And she says yes.

00:09:26.000 Hold on a second, it depends.

00:09:29.000 You're talking like bath time, like in shorts.

00:09:31.000 It's not fully naked.

00:09:32.000 No, no, I think she meant in a library.

00:09:34.000 Yes, no, I know.

00:09:35.000 You're correct.

00:09:36.000 Yeah.

00:09:36.000 It would be a lot of shushing if I was in said library.

00:09:38.000 It would be.

00:09:39.000 But here's the thing.

00:09:40.000 I agree.

00:09:40.000 Look, context over content.

00:09:42.000 I don't think there's a problem with nudity.

00:09:44.000 This is the issue, right?

00:09:45.000 If you're a conservative, you need to make sure that you counterbalance this effectively.

00:09:48.000 For example, David, God.

00:09:50.000 When you're talking about these, a bunch of beautiful art.

00:09:52.000 Is it David Meets God?

00:09:53.000 What's the name of the... The Creation of Man.

00:09:55.000 The Creation of Man. 0.99

00:09:56.000 With the fingers touching and the ultra-small penises. 0.99

00:10:00.000 I think that was someone who had a girlfriend who was like, no, see, they all look like that! 1.00

00:10:05.000 Even God, even the man after God's own heart has a penis that size. 1.00

00:10:10.000 It's still harder than yours. 1.00

00:10:11.000 It's cement!

00:10:12.000 Yes!

00:10:13.000 Was it an Asian model?

00:10:14.000 But the point is... It's the creation of Adam.

00:10:17.000 The creation of Adam.

00:10:18.000 Sorry, I got that wrong.

00:10:20.000 You can admonish me later.

00:10:21.000 But there's nothing wrong.

00:10:22.000 I would have nothing against my children seeing that.

00:10:25.000 Nudity in itself is not something that is inherently immoral, right?

00:10:29.000 We are all born naked. 0.98

00:10:30.000 Now, the issue is when you have degenerate men dressed as women twerking their ballsack in children's face next to the pop-out book section. 0.98

00:10:38.000 That's the context with which we have a problem, I believe. 0.93

00:10:42.000 Yeah, well, and it was this guy, I think, was saying, OK, look, I get you say it's just a human body and you can wear whatever you want to wear.

00:10:48.000 He didn't go like, OK, so lingerie, OK, like edible panties or anything like that.

00:10:51.000 He's like, I'm going to go as far as I can possibly go, because of course he's going to say no to this.

00:10:56.000 How about a naked guy reading to children?

00:10:58.000 And she's like, yeah, why not?

00:10:59.000 And he's like, what the?

00:11:01.000 Well, I mean, is that a serious question?

00:11:03.000 Do you need me to answer?

00:11:06.000 It's unbelievable that she answered yes. 1.00

00:11:07.000 Well, I think she just, yeah, she's a garbage. 1.00

00:11:10.000 I think it's entirely believable, though. 0.99

00:11:11.000 That's the problem.

00:11:12.000 It's entirely believable.

00:11:13.000 This is where, this is what, again, the question you have to ask yourself is not, what is the left doing right now?

00:11:18.000 What are Democrats doing right now?

00:11:20.000 What would they do if there were no checks and balances?

00:11:22.000 If they had complete unfettered access to power?

00:11:25.000 This lady would have naked strange men reading to your children. 1.00

00:11:28.000 Hey, hold on a second. 0.78

00:11:29.000 That's not a straw man argument.

00:11:30.000 Remember, they would say this.

00:11:31.000 Well, what's next?

00:11:32.000 Naked men reading to your kids? 0.97

00:11:33.000 Once upon a time, the left would Yeah, right after she said that I should just say Kindle just down there.

00:11:37.000 There's no taint.

00:11:37.000 What's a problem? What? You have a problem with balls in children's face?

00:11:41.000 I do! Call me old-fashioned! 0.96

00:11:43.000 Yeah, right after she said that, I should just say, Kindle just down the line.

00:11:47.000 There's no taint.

00:11:49.000 I'm still hoping that my nook becomes relevant.

00:11:52.000 Yes.

00:11:53.000 I'm just trying to think of what I can say because I know what platform we're on.

00:11:59.000 By the way, I put on the softies, the ranger panties, that we have at CrowderShop.com when I do bath time with the little ones.

00:12:05.000 Well, that's because you're their dad!

00:12:07.000 Yeah, but I'm saying I put those on still because, like, you know, in other words, I get that some dads sometimes, like, they're naked with, like, baby's bath time.

00:12:13.000 The point is, I understand the context.

00:12:14.000 This is not that.

00:12:16.000 And do you guys find yourself... Hey, this is a question.

00:12:17.000 Do you find yourself making up songs when you're, like, with your little kids that you're kind of ashamed of?

00:12:22.000 Like, dad jokes songs?

00:12:24.000 Yeah, of course.

00:12:25.000 Of course.

00:12:26.000 To my son, I'd be like, Little Red Wyatt, you're driving much too fast.

00:12:31.000 Why is he driving?

00:12:32.000 He's seven.

00:12:33.000 I know, but that's why, because he's got a power wheel.

00:12:37.000 Oh, okay.

00:12:38.000 Please don't cry.

00:12:39.000 You have to go to sleep.

00:12:40.000 You know, something like that.

00:12:43.000 I saw it the other day, and I was like, I'm glad no one saw this.

00:12:45.000 It was bath time, and I was going, it's time to scrub a dub. 1.00

00:12:49.000 Scrub all the mud, won't get no mud on me.

00:12:53.000 It's so much worse!

00:12:55.000 I swear to you, I put them, because I have a whole routine, it's like a conveyor belt, where I have those towel down, and then, you know, obviously you put on like the suave or aquaphor.

00:12:55.000 I love it!

00:13:03.000 Yeah. 0.65

00:13:04.000 I like clean butts and I cannot lie.

00:13:08.000 I'm sure I've done it.

00:13:09.000 I've done it with thousands of songs.

00:13:11.000 I'll even do it with like my dogs.

00:13:12.000 I'll be like, I love it when you call me big puppy. 0.99

00:13:19.000 It's just stupid, but I think everybody kind of does it. 0.97

00:13:22.000 Let us know. 0.99

00:13:22.000 Comment below if you're a dad, if you're a mom, if you do this, and if you also, like us, feel great shame. 0.99

00:13:27.000 You won't see it on stage on December 3rd.

00:13:29.000 No, no, no, no.

00:13:29.000 When you're delirious, yes.

00:13:29.000 Put it that way.

00:13:31.000 Oh, wait a second.

00:13:32.000 There's some breaking news.

00:13:41.000 Well, it looks like... Hold on a second.

00:13:42.000 It looks like Bill Clinton was just diagnosed.

00:13:44.000 He has COVID.

00:13:45.000 But you should know before... Feels fantastic.

00:13:48.000 Looks great.

00:13:51.000 Oh, good.

00:13:51.000 Oh, geez.

00:13:52.000 Yeah.

00:13:52.000 He's doing fine.

00:13:53.000 Wow.

00:13:53.000 Is that Post-Hero?

00:13:55.000 That was a car-stoop! 0.80

00:14:02.000 No.

00:14:02.000 He murdered a guy.

00:14:06.000 Oh, boy.

00:14:07.000 Yeah, it looks like she got him now.

00:14:11.000 In case he did it while you were taking a sip.

00:14:16.000 Wow.

00:14:17.000 We did a whole segment on that.

00:14:18.000 Go and watch our Norm episode.

00:14:19.000 He was kicked off of The View for about half a decade.

00:14:21.000 Oh, it's hilarious.

00:14:22.000 Yeah, I think it's a good way to get murderers out of the White House.

00:14:26.000 What?

00:14:26.000 Hey, Bill Clinton, not tonight.

00:14:30.000 I love how he called back to it like seconds later.

00:14:33.000 She says, well, come on, you're supposed to be funny.

00:14:35.000 He's like, what?

00:14:36.000 How did you not know that?

00:14:38.000 No, you can't do that.

00:14:39.000 You're supposed to behave.

00:14:40.000 Okay.

00:14:41.000 And he goes on and he goes, yeah, and you know, like he killed the guy.

00:14:43.000 And then later the funniest thing he's ever said is Star Jones was on it.

00:14:47.000 He goes, yeah, I didn't really like Star Wars all that much, but you know some of them like Billy, you know, like Billy Dee Williams, you know what I'm talking about.

00:14:53.000 Yeah.

00:14:56.000 Alright, we're gonna go on to Elizabeth Warren and Elon Musk.

00:15:00.000 That was, I think, the first celebrity when he died.

00:15:03.000 I did, I cried by myself.

00:15:04.000 It was so sad for me.

00:15:07.000 He really is, I would say so.

00:15:08.000 So Elizabeth Warren, Elon Musk.

00:15:10.000 This is another Turf War. 1.00

00:15:12.000 I should say this, sorry, um, it's more of a, uh, it's an invasion of Elizabeth Warren's land that she wants back. 0.91

00:15:20.000 Weird.

00:15:20.000 One one thousand sixteenth of her.

00:15:22.000 So, um, and hit the like button, hit share, by the way, if you're watching right now, because the algorithms say that we're dead, we're going to be discussing some things here that, uh, YouTube doesn't want us discussing, and if they ban us, fine, you can follow us on Rumble, you can watch on Rumble, head on over there, it's a live show Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.

00:15:37.000 Eastern, by that I mean 1015, but 10 a.m.

00:15:39.000 Eastern, and, uh, head on over to Rumble, I would love to see the numbers go, beep, Switch over.

00:15:44.000 Okay, Elizabeth Warren, you been following us?

00:15:47.000 Love Elizabeth Warren.

00:15:48.000 Can't get enough of her.

00:15:49.000 I only follow her in her dreams when I see her naked in the desert.

00:15:53.000 Reading to children.

00:15:54.000 She don't run the other way. 1.00

00:15:57.000 It's the door's nightmare.

00:15:59.000 Her chamber's just a boiler room. 1.00

00:16:02.000 So Elizabeth Warren was asked by a reporter, and then she responded, and this is what's concerning about this.

00:16:08.000 When you hear Elizabeth Warren, and when you hear whoever it is, insert today, whether it's AOC, insert whichever Democrat politician, member of the DNC, start speaking out, when you hear them speak out against Elon Musk, I just want you to picture the voice of their friend, Mark Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos, Susan Wojcicki, because we know they have meetings, and we know that they've worked alongside them.

00:16:27.000 So Elizabeth Warren was asked about Elon Musk with that context.

00:16:31.000 Here's how she answered.

00:16:33.000 Republicans say that Democrats are picking on Elon Musk.

00:16:36.000 Elon Musk is doing just fine.

00:16:38.000 But do you think that users have a right to freedom of speech, even if what they're saying is wrong or offensive?

00:16:44.000 I think that one human being should not decide how millions of people communicate with each other.

00:16:51.000 One human being should not be able to go into a dark room by himself and decide, oh, that person gets heard from, that person doesn't.

00:16:59.000 That's not how it should work.

00:17:01.000 I completely agree.

00:17:03.000 Interesting.

00:17:04.000 Completely agree.

00:17:05.000 Why does the room have to be dark?

00:17:07.000 There's a little bit of projection there. 0.83

00:17:08.000 She has a lot of lights off sex. 1.00

00:17:10.000 Yes. 0.99

00:17:13.000 So low.

00:17:15.000 Yes, well yeah, because her husband's not interested.

00:17:17.000 No man should be in the dark and be able to determine who gets to speak and who doesn't by asking their mirror mirror on the wall.

00:17:27.000 That wasn't the question.

00:17:28.000 I didn't hear you.

00:17:29.000 That's part of my people's traditions.

00:17:32.000 Do you see the problem here?

00:17:33.000 You can comment below.

00:17:34.000 So look, you have Elizabeth Warren.

00:17:36.000 Let's go through this.

00:17:37.000 She's long been, by the way, a proponent of antitrust laws, right?

00:17:40.000 And breaking up big tech.

00:17:41.000 That sounds good.

00:17:42.000 On the surface.

00:17:42.000 That sounds good.

00:17:43.000 On the surface.

00:17:44.000 Right.

00:17:44.000 Different thing when you're talking about free speech, Section 230 versus antitrust, but it's a component to it.

00:17:48.000 So here you have from her website, references available at ladoscutter.com, we must hold these big tech companies accountable and break them up.

00:17:55.000 Okay, go read the rest of it then, it's just a bunch of fluff, because you're not actually seeing what that means.

00:18:00.000 Okay, you're saying this, how?

00:18:02.000 The how and the why matters.

00:18:05.000 And you can't consistently line up on the wrong side accidentally, always!

00:18:10.000 You never have an accident that errs on the side of freedom?

00:18:13.000 Let's look at what she actually wants to do here. 0.94

00:18:15.000 Elizabeth Warren wants to control the flow of information herself. 1.00

00:18:18.000 So during her 2020 presidential campaign, she vowed to, quote, "...push to create civil and criminal penalties for knowingly disseminating false information about when and how to vote in U.S.

00:18:30.000 elections." 0.78

00:18:30.000 And prior to the 2020 election, this is what she wrote on her website, "...I have already called out Facebook for permitting political candidates to run plainly false ads on its platform." 0.78

00:18:40.000 By the way, also included false stories.

00:18:43.000 Hunter Biden.

00:18:44.000 Remember, they all said it was Russian disinformation.

00:18:44.000 Laptop.

00:18:46.000 That's why it was banned from all these social media platforms.

00:18:48.000 The entire DNC establishment said, that's Russian propaganda.

00:18:52.000 Hold on a second.

00:18:53.000 Do you think they didn't vet it?

00:18:55.000 Or do you think they wanted you to believe that it was Russian propaganda?

00:18:57.000 Which, by the way, directly affected the outcome of the election.

00:19:00.000 So she wants to have a direct line, and she says that she has a direct line, to call for misinformation, and they've been wrong on misinformation.

00:19:07.000 We've been banned for misinformation that was then un-misinformationed on YouTube, to be clear.

00:19:12.000 Yeah, well, and we knew it at the time.

00:19:14.000 It wasn't like new information came to light that all of a sudden made us right.

00:19:17.000 It was readily available.

00:19:18.000 No, the CDC statistics changed.

00:19:20.000 I mean, the 2016 statistics, they changed in 2022.

00:19:22.000 Yeah.

00:19:24.000 She also wrote, the safety of our democracy is more important than shareholders' dividends and CEO salaries, and we need tech companies to behave accordingly.

00:19:31.000 That's why I'm calling on them to take real steps right now to fight.

00:19:35.000 So she just said, they shouldn't be able to run these political campaign ads. 0.93

00:19:37.000 For example, you know that you had people on the right saying, hey, the left Did this Russia collusion hoax, right?

00:19:43.000 I think that was one of Ted Cruz's ads.

00:19:45.000 I don't remember exactly who, but this was obviously a central point in Republican ads.

00:19:48.000 They want to say, that's misinformation, even though we know verifiably that it's true.

00:19:54.000 So she wants to silence political opponents. 1.00

00:19:55.000 That's fine if she doesn't want anyone to run political ads. 1.00

00:19:59.000 Has Elizabeth Warren?

00:20:00.000 It's not a trick question.

00:20:03.000 One Facebook ad that ran between October 26th and November 30th spent $35,000.

00:20:08.000 So she's fine with it for herself?

00:20:10.000 Yes.

00:20:11.000 When she can benefit, that is.

00:20:12.000 She's saying, I want to be able to run Facebook ads, but the thing is, I don't engage in misinformation.

00:20:18.000 Just take her word for it.

00:20:19.000 Don't bother peering behind the curtain and seeing that she, of course, Was on the Russia, Russia, Russia train.

00:20:24.000 Here you go.

00:20:25.000 Elizabeth Warren.

00:20:26.000 Disinformation was one of the several potent strategies that the Russian government employed to influence the 2016 election.

00:20:34.000 Wait, I thought all elections were safe, fair, secure, that there was no way that we could question the outcome of what happened.

00:20:39.000 No!

00:20:40.000 No!

00:20:40.000 Yeah, no, no, no, no, no.

00:20:42.000 Well, I think Chief Runs from Reporter is quite a hypocrite. 0.99

00:20:45.000 Yes. 1.00

00:20:46.000 Paints with all the colors of the bullshit. 1.00

00:20:50.000 Think about that. 1.00

00:20:51.000 She's saying, oh, Russia, 2016.

00:20:52.000 They always wanted that election to be in doubt, and then they continued with that to try and affect the election in 2020 by having one of the most important stories that involved the current political candidate, former Vice President Joe Biden's corruption with his son, the Hunter Biden laptop.

00:21:09.000 That was Russian disinformation.

00:21:10.000 Elizabeth Warren, AOC, Kinzinger, they all supported getting that off of social media.

00:21:17.000 Do you see the problem with them determining what is misinformation?

00:21:19.000 I agree, it shouldn't only be Elon.

00:21:21.000 Right.

00:21:22.000 But Elon is... Elon's allowing people on!

00:21:25.000 He's not getting rid of people.

00:21:26.000 Do you see the difference?

00:21:28.000 His mistake is basically saying, I'm going to let everybody have a platform and a way to communicate.

00:21:28.000 Yes.

00:21:33.000 What she wants is for a room of people to get together and say what is and isn't allowed arbitrarily, not based on fact, and then it's okay if one person decides, like Mark Zuckerberg or The former Twitter guy in chief, right, before he left.

00:21:46.000 That's the people that she wants to be able to do it under marching orders. 1.00

00:21:49.000 If they're going out there and saying, you can have a platform and you can speak freely, she's not okay with that.

00:21:54.000 Why would that be the case in the United States today?

00:21:57.000 Why is that even part of the conversation?

00:22:00.000 Well, here's the truth, is they want, and people like Elizabeth Warren, they want Twitter to be treated differently than all of it.

00:22:06.000 Here's the thing, they want all of the big tech platforms to continue as is.

00:22:09.000 They're happy with them.

00:22:10.000 Are you happy with them?

00:22:11.000 They want to change Twitter because Elon can't be controlled.

00:22:14.000 He's one of the few people... Remember when people used to say, I don't think that we should have billionaires running for office.

00:22:18.000 So you want screw-ups to run the country? 0.79

00:22:20.000 There is some value in being someone who is autonomous, not being capable of being bought and sold.

00:22:25.000 And I understand that it's not only financial.

00:22:27.000 Sometimes people are just, they're just grasping for power.

00:22:30.000 But they want to treat all the other social platforms one way.

00:22:30.000 I get it.

00:22:33.000 And Twitter differently.

00:22:35.000 There's only one platform that is allowing more both right-wing and left-wing opinions on the platform today.

00:22:41.000 One.

00:22:41.000 It's the one that they want to censor for not censoring enough.

00:22:44.000 Just listen to National Security Communications Director John Kirby explain it.

00:22:48.000 Again, I think we've been very clear and consistent on this.

00:22:50.000 Certainly publicly, we've been very open about our desires to be able to see citizens communicate.

00:22:56.000 And, you know, Apple, if this is a decision that they're making, then they should have to speak to that.

00:23:00.000 But we, you know, we're not, we can't and we aren't in the business of telling private companies how to execute their initiatives.

00:23:08.000 But Twitter's a private company, too.

00:23:09.000 So why is Twitter getting one treatment and Apple's getting another, is my question.

00:23:13.000 Well, those are completely two different circumstances.

00:23:16.000 But are they?

00:23:17.000 Oh, are they really?

00:23:20.000 I mean, the White House comes out and says we're going to keep an eye on Twitter because they're practicing free speech and you guys are like, oh, we're going to have to keep an eye on Apple.

00:23:26.000 Blocks not related to these protests.

00:23:29.000 It's actually worse just because some guys held up a sign that says Xi Jinping should be removed from office a month ago.

00:23:35.000 And you guys are like, I mean, Apple, they're a private company.

00:23:37.000 I know that's how people communicate.

00:23:38.000 Elizabeth Warren, one guy shouldn't be able to go into a room and determine how millions of people, what about a billion?

00:23:43.000 What about over a billion people communicating in China via the AirDrop app to make sure that they can protest and communicate with one another?

00:23:48.000 No?

00:23:50.000 Wasn't it also interesting how much more toxic Twitter was when the left ran it?

00:23:54.000 I know!

00:23:54.000 Actually, Musk had a tweet about that.

00:23:57.000 When that was happening, I was one of the primary targets of actual neo-Nazis.

00:24:02.000 And when they realized they couldn't paint me as a Nazi, they started photoshopping swastikas and quotes about gassing Jews.

00:24:08.000 And I went to Twitter and said, hey, this is actually defamatory.

00:24:11.000 It's attributing a quote to me that I didn't make, and I don't have that tattoo.

00:24:14.000 I shouldn't have sent them a nude pic for verification, but at that point, I left everything on the table.

00:24:18.000 And they said, there's nothing we can do.

00:24:20.000 We allow this.

00:24:20.000 But then they would remove a post that included the CDC stats.

00:24:23.000 Well, they said, sir, the picture in question was not of your penis. 0.98

00:24:26.000 Why did you send us a picture? 1.00

00:24:27.000 I said, no, that is my penis. 1.00

00:24:28.000 Just zoom out. 1.00

00:24:31.000 I sent Michelangelo's penis. 0.99

00:24:32.000 Those are very large M&M's. 1.00

00:24:34.000 See?

00:24:34.000 I told you they all look like this.

00:24:35.000 They're all that size and they're all grey.

00:24:35.000 See?

00:24:37.000 You sent them a side-by-side.

00:24:41.000 This is something people also miss.

00:24:43.000 Facebook.

00:24:44.000 Let's look at the big social platforms.

00:24:45.000 You have Facebook and Instagram.

00:24:47.000 Then you have YouTube.

00:24:48.000 That's Alphabet.

00:24:49.000 That's YouTube.

00:24:49.000 That's Google.

00:24:50.000 It's not really social media, but you understand the point.

00:24:52.000 Twitter is a distant third.

00:24:55.000 That's the only reason Elon was able to purchase it the way that he did.

00:24:58.000 It's a distant third.

00:24:59.000 If you're talking about influence, it's not even close to Facebook.

00:25:02.000 Why are they spending so much time on Twitter, which is nowhere near the size, nowhere near the user base?

00:25:09.000 The cardinal sin that Elon Musk has committed is allowing conservatives on the platform.

00:25:13.000 Allowing the then-sitting president, when he was removed, back on the platform just because, ah, you're gonna allow the Ayatollah and members of ISIS? 0.97

00:25:21.000 I think he deserves to have a say.

00:25:24.000 Think about how much power you think you have, too, where you're like, I'm gonna get rid of the president.

00:25:29.000 And half the people are just sitting there on, you know, the Starbucks lounge that, oddly enough, a billionaire didn't consider work.

00:25:35.000 But just going on there and trying to find anything that they disagree with, calling it misinformation, blocking accounts.

00:25:41.000 For years we're finding out this happened.

00:25:43.000 Absolutely. 1.00

00:25:44.000 Now imagine being the asshole who bought that. 1.00

00:25:47.000 Oh, they say, good enough for me, if Elizabeth Warren says it, it must be true. 1.00

00:25:51.000 Right.

00:25:51.000 Oh, hold on, oh, AOC said it, oh, Joe Biden said it, Psaki said it, Jean-Pierre said it, good enough for me!

00:25:58.000 Okay, well then, if their word is Elon Musk's word, who doesn't have a dog in the fight politically aside from allowing all voices to speak, why don't you give him the same credence?

00:26:08.000 I am not asking, I would be furious if Elon sort of just removing leftists, for no reason, just to be clear.

00:26:13.000 If that starts happening, I will speak out against it.

00:26:15.000 Come back here.

00:26:16.000 Hold me to my word.

00:26:18.000 Also, hit the like button right now if you're watching on YouTube because they do not want you to see what's coming up.

00:26:23.000 And here's the problem, too.

00:26:25.000 You know, the Streisand effect that people talk about.

00:26:27.000 Just a word of advice, Democrats.

00:26:30.000 Be careful when you engage in this.

00:26:32.000 Because when you start deplatforming people, it actually can end up going wrong.

00:26:35.000 It can become more of a problem.

00:26:38.000 Look what happened after Chase created this leviathan of competition when they deplatformed Kanye from their bank.

00:26:46.000 Yeah, the Yeezy Bank Cash Card gets you more money back for your purchases than all competitors.

00:26:51.000 We going DEFCON 3 on all them Zionist cards, huh? 1.00

00:26:54.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:26:55.000 That sounds good, but as a possible new customer, I have to say that last part seemed a little anti-Semitic.

00:27:00.000 Yo, I can't be anti-Semitic, cause I'm the real skeptic. 1.00

00:27:04.000 Better yet, I'm the antiseptic.

00:27:06.000 I'm the real peptide, yeah, huh? 0.99

00:27:08.000 We don't steal your money, or control the media, or sleep in bed with your ex-wife, looking at her with your big butthole eyes. 0.99

00:27:14.000 Okay, look, that last one doesn't even sound like it's about Jewish people. 1.00

00:27:18.000 I think maybe you need to take your medication.

00:27:20.000 I don't need no medication.

00:27:22.000 I just need some consternation.

00:27:24.000 Seems to me you done learned a lot from Satan.

00:27:26.000 But I praise Jesus.

00:27:27.000 Y'all better praise yeezus.

00:27:29.000 That's me.

00:27:30.000 Without meezus, even Reese's can't go with pieces.

00:27:32.000 Huh?

00:27:33.000 Praise be to me.

00:27:34.000 Most high.

00:27:35.000 Yee.

00:27:36.000 Carly Pasternak. 0.99

00:27:36.000 Aw, sh**. 0.99

00:27:37.000 I ain't going with him. 1.00

00:27:39.000 Are you robbing the bank?

00:27:40.000 Uh, no, I'm here to take Kanye back to Zombieland.

00:27:42.000 He needs to take his medicine just like you said.

00:27:44.000 Not like this.

00:27:45.000 I need to call the police.

00:27:46.000 Don't reach for your phone. 0.98

00:27:48.000 You shot me in the hand! 0.99

00:27:49.000 I'm bleeding everywhere! 0.98

00:27:51.000 You're leaking on my Adidas.

00:27:52.000 I'm sorry, Yeezys. 1.00

00:27:53.000 Come on, yay. 0.99

00:27:54.000 Okay, but don't forget to use Yeezy Bank.

00:27:56.000 Don't worry, we got you!

00:28:00.000 It's a clever slogan.

00:28:02.000 It's a good commercial.

00:28:04.000 It's not a commercial so much that we procured that from the NSA.

00:28:06.000 They were spying on phone calls.

00:28:08.000 I didn't think the customer service line would actually be Yeezus.

00:28:12.000 Well, you gotta start somewhere.

00:28:13.000 I thought they just said that.

00:28:14.000 I thought it was more of an umbrella term.

00:28:16.000 I found it an appealing ad.

00:28:17.000 Me too.

00:28:21.000 Watch that.

00:28:22.000 Hey, thanks for being your man.

00:28:23.000 Clip that.

00:28:24.000 I actually have the Yeezus card.

00:28:26.000 It got denied the other day when I went to buy bagels.

00:28:28.000 Yeah, I know.

00:28:29.000 That's weird because it's a debit card and you have the money in the account.

00:28:32.000 It's gone.

00:28:33.000 Gone.

00:28:34.000 I don't know, huh? 0.99

00:28:36.000 It must be damn, but can't say who damn is. 0.98

00:28:40.000 Because I get a free pass is what? 0.98

00:28:42.000 Media, huh?

00:28:43.000 Okay.

00:28:43.000 Jews.

00:28:46.000 All right, Tanya.

00:28:47.000 You can put Converse on there.

00:28:49.000 You can put Nike on there, but no Adidas.

00:28:51.000 It's controlled by all the Udens.

00:28:53.000 I'd rather go with Putin.

00:28:53.000 Talk to me.

00:28:55.000 Stop with the thing.

00:28:57.000 So, Elon Musk.

00:29:00.000 Hey, if you guys are mad about that, because I know since a few were like, you're like, yeah, I support.

00:29:03.000 Yeah, name me.

00:29:04.000 Name me the best tracks.

00:29:05.000 Name me the singles from college dropout.

00:29:08.000 Go.

00:29:09.000 Which is his first and, in my opinion, best album?

00:29:12.000 I do think Dark and Twisted Fantasy is underrated.

00:29:14.000 It's a good album.

00:29:14.000 It is a good album.

00:29:15.000 I do like his first, though.

00:29:16.000 No, no, it's fantastic.

00:29:17.000 I used to get complaints when this was on AM Radio because I used one of his songs as a bump.

00:29:20.000 Like, you shouldn't use that because he's Taylor Swift.

00:29:22.000 I'm like, he makes good music. 0.94

00:29:23.000 And he's also crazy.

00:29:25.000 So, Elon Musk. 0.87

00:29:26.000 He took an award for it.

00:29:29.000 No, that's not your award.

00:29:31.000 Yeah, I don't care.

00:29:32.000 I'm gonna let you finish.

00:29:34.000 But Beyonce had the best video of all time.

00:29:36.000 Yeah.

00:29:37.000 Here's your war back.

00:29:38.000 Good luck.

00:29:38.000 I remember that happened.

00:29:40.000 This is Thursday, so just letting you know.

00:29:41.000 We're going to get to some important stuff.

00:29:42.000 It's going to happen.

00:29:45.000 How amazingly rude that was.

00:29:46.000 Remember Balloon Boy?

00:29:48.000 Remember that?

00:29:49.000 When people thought there was a kid in a balloon and it turned out it was fraudulent?

00:29:52.000 Everyone was watching.

00:29:52.000 We thought, this kid is going to crash.

00:29:54.000 I saw someone, this was back before meme culture was really big.

00:29:56.000 It must have been 2009.

00:29:57.000 And someone had Kanye pop in and wrote a script.

00:30:00.000 And he said, yo, yo, Balloon Boy, I'm going to let you finish.

00:30:02.000 But Amelia Earhart had the best disappearance of all time.

00:30:08.000 It was the first time I had seen it, and I remember I was peeing myself laughing.

00:30:14.000 If that gets us removed from YouTube, like I said, it's a live show Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.

00:30:17.000 Eastern.

00:30:18.000 You can head on over to Rumble.

00:30:19.000 Of course, we'll be doing some more segments on Mug Club today.

00:30:21.000 It's Chat Thursday.

00:30:23.000 You never know what's going to trigger the ban here, but we're not going to change what we do, so there we go.

00:30:28.000 As for me and my house, we will, you know, piss off the right people.

00:30:31.000 Elon Musk, his rivalry with Tim Cook, it seems like it's done here.

00:30:36.000 We talked about this yesterday.

00:30:37.000 When we talked about it yesterday, I did say there are some things that we can't confirm.

00:30:41.000 There are some things that we can confirm.

00:30:42.000 We were able to confirm that Apple had been pulling some advertising, but we weren't able to confirm that Tim Pool threatened to pull Twitter.

00:30:50.000 Tim Pool doesn't have that kind of power.

00:30:51.000 Tim Pool, that man did a hit job, huh?

00:30:55.000 He asked me a question in an interview.

00:30:57.000 Actually, no, I asked him a question when he tried to answer I said don't answer me cuz I'm ye and then I left He asked Tim Pool a question!

00:31:06.000 Yeah.

00:31:06.000 And Tim Pool was like, well, I don't, uh, I don't, uh, use the term they as I believe you do.

00:31:09.000 That's it.

00:31:10.000 I'm done.

00:31:10.000 This is far too reasonable!

00:31:12.000 What was crazy was it was just such an inappropriate time to leave.

00:31:14.000 He just, like, all of a sudden was walking behind us.

00:31:16.000 Yes!

00:31:17.000 And you're like, I don't understand what happened. 0.66

00:31:18.000 And you see Tim Pool, like, doing this, like, he's crazy enough, he might hit me. 1.00

00:31:20.000 Yeah, like, I don't... Yeah, yeah, you better bob and weave, bitch! 1.00

00:31:20.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:31:28.000 Tim Pool.

00:31:29.000 Half Asian.

00:31:30.000 You my sensation. 0.73

00:31:31.000 I'm about to give you some condemnation.

00:31:33.000 Yeah.

00:31:34.000 Stop.

00:31:36.000 Stop.

00:31:38.000 Just happens.

00:31:39.000 So, it does seem that the two, meaning Elon Musk and Tim Cook, thank you, had a meeting yesterday.

00:31:46.000 And so that brings us to this segment.

00:31:48.000 No, Gerald knows things.

00:31:49.000 Guys, I'm gay!

00:32:00.000 It's for no expense.

00:32:00.000 I don't know that I like any of you guys.

00:32:03.000 Well, it's okay.

00:32:04.000 All right, so we talked about Apple potentially removing Twitter from the App Store.

00:32:08.000 That was the big thing.

00:32:09.000 We talked about how much information they control.

00:32:10.000 Well, they actually met, and Elon tweeted out, actually, that they had a good conversation.

00:32:14.000 Among other things, we resolved the misunderstanding, I'll get back to that, about Twitter potentially being removed from the App Store.

00:32:20.000 Tim was clear that Apple never considered doing so.

00:32:23.000 I'm not 100% sure that I believe any of that.

00:32:26.000 Now, I do believe that they aren't going to remove them from the App Store.

00:32:29.000 Sure.

00:32:30.000 I don't think that Tim Cook couldn't have sent a tweet basically saying, not true, or maybe a direct message, or picked up the phone and said this.

00:32:38.000 I don't think it took a sit down to come to, oh yeah, that was never actually going to happen.

00:32:43.000 Could have Neuralinked it.

00:32:44.000 Well, it could have.

00:32:45.000 That's a pretty impressive little invention they've got going there.

00:32:48.000 I think what happened is Tim Cook, and this is just me, I think he backed down.

00:32:52.000 I think Elon Musk does pose a threat to Apple that Apple would do very well to avoid.

00:32:52.000 Yes.

00:32:57.000 He could launch his own phone if he wanted to.

00:32:59.000 He could do pretty much anything in tech that he wants to do and do it very well and compete with people and take market share.

00:33:05.000 This is exactly why you cannot negotiate for peace from a position of weakness.

00:33:08.000 It's not possible.

00:33:09.000 He also sent this interesting, if not breathtaking, video from Apple HQ.

00:33:14.000 Here's what's next!

00:33:23.000 The tweet is, thanks for taking me around Apple's beautiful HQ.

00:33:26.000 Where are the Chinese kids being bullwhipped?

00:33:28.000 Yes, you showed a pool!

00:33:31.000 That was filled with leaves.

00:33:33.000 It wasn't even clean!

00:33:35.000 You can't afford a skimmer?

00:33:36.000 Yeah, nobody can go in the pool?

00:33:38.000 What is this?

00:33:39.000 So, basically, I don't think he could really ever be serious about taking them off.

00:33:43.000 I mean, that's a big, big app.

00:33:44.000 You don't want to do that to a customer like that, right?

00:33:46.000 They're making a lot of money off of it.

00:33:48.000 And the plan, if Twitter was removed, is kind of tweeted out here, too.

00:33:51.000 I certainly hope it does not come to that.

00:33:53.000 But yes, if there is no other choice, I will make an alternative phone.

00:33:55.000 Like I said, he could do that.

00:33:56.000 He could make that happen.

00:33:57.000 Yes, Elon Musk could do it.

00:33:58.000 And I think that that's one of the reasons that they backed down.

00:34:00.000 So we'll see if that is actually the case.

00:34:02.000 And here's my question, too.

00:34:04.000 Look, I'm not a billionaire, in case you couldn't guess.

00:34:10.000 Where are all the conservative billionaires?

00:34:11.000 Why is Elon Musk carrying your water for you?

00:34:14.000 Why is he doing this?

00:34:14.000 Yeah.

00:34:15.000 Hey, you mean to tell me there's no one on the right who has enough money where they could have stepped down?

00:34:22.000 Tim, I was about to say Tim Apple.

00:34:24.000 Tim Apple!

00:34:25.000 That's the best one though.

00:34:25.000 Tim Fuji!

00:34:27.000 He's a Kirtland! 0.93

00:34:30.000 You mean that none of them could have stepped them down?

00:34:33.000 They're all creating other platforms and then selling them to other people and charging service fees.

00:34:38.000 Where are the conservatives with the money?

00:34:39.000 The people who say this is their reason, they're charging the hill.

00:34:42.000 Why is it Elon, who has been a lifelong Democrat, who now is fed up with it?

00:34:46.000 That is a story that I think we're missing here because we've had politicians on this show, we've called them to the mat and we've said, look, demand that I go to a hearing.

00:34:54.000 They don't want to.

00:34:55.000 You know that we have some information that nobody else has with these big tech platforms.

00:34:59.000 And they're like, yeah, no, no, it's about the clip.

00:34:59.000 Please call us.

00:35:01.000 It's about the clip that we get online.

00:35:03.000 Elon's not looking for a clip.

00:35:04.000 Elon is actually unloading, and I know it's not a clip, it's a magazine, and I mean figuratively, On the people who are trying to silence any voices of dissent.

00:35:13.000 He is going after the kings and the kingmakers.

00:35:15.000 Where are all the conservatives with the power and the money?

00:35:18.000 You can't negotiate from a position of weakness.

00:35:20.000 Elon understands that.

00:35:21.000 We know that people on the right understand that.

00:35:23.000 But they're not doing anything.

00:35:25.000 And we are funded by viewers like you.

00:35:27.000 We, of course, fight back as best we can.

00:35:28.000 But we know... I mean, the best we can do is tank Google's stock price, like after the Vox Apocalypse.

00:35:33.000 That was fun.

00:35:34.000 But it was accidental!

00:35:34.000 That was during the day?

00:35:36.000 They came back.

00:35:37.000 But so one of the things I want to say is he has so much at risk.

00:35:40.000 He's got billions of his own dollars, obviously, but he's also got several companies.

00:35:44.000 He's got his reputation, his ability to do anything.

00:35:46.000 If you know anything about Elon Musk, it's not about the dollars for him.

00:35:49.000 He wants to change the world.

00:35:51.000 That's been his thing the entire time.

00:35:52.000 He wants to change how people interact, whether it be in commerce, whether it be in speech, whether it be in cars, whether it be going to Mars, whether it be Neuralink to try to help people.

00:36:00.000 He wants to change the world.

00:36:01.000 That's his thing.

00:36:02.000 He's putting all of that on the line to make sure that your free speech is protected.

00:36:05.000 So you have to respect that.

00:36:07.000 One thing he also did, he dropped some information in a tweet the other day.

00:36:10.000 That's right.

00:36:11.000 That basically gave us a little bit of a peek behind the curtain into something that we thought was going on.

00:36:15.000 It's not enough information yet, but it is interesting.

00:36:17.000 Yeah, so hopefully we'll get some details to this.

00:36:19.000 Here's the quote from him.

00:36:21.000 The obvious reality, as longtime users know, is that Twitter has failed in trust and safety for a very long time and has interfered in elections.

00:36:29.000 Elon Musk just said that Twitter has interfered based on what he has seen.

00:36:34.000 I think there's just something else important, though, what he said.

00:36:36.000 And keep in mind, too, even if you just believe that these people are being manipulated by purse strings, if you believe that, oh, they're only being subject to market forces, there's some truth to that.

00:36:46.000 It's why, by the way, for example, I have a lot of hope for a company like Rumble.

00:36:50.000 I understand that they're public companies and people say, well, what happens when the shareholders demand that they start censoring content?

00:36:55.000 Well, here's the thing.

00:36:56.000 If Rumble decides to start censoring content, they're of no value to their shareholders because they said screw you to the entire government of France and they're the alternative to YouTube.

00:37:03.000 So it sort of is a beautiful Safety check, right?

00:37:06.000 It's, well, hold on a second.

00:37:07.000 They're only as valuable as the freedom that they provide for content creators who want to leave the ghettos of YouTube.

00:37:12.000 That's a very good thing, and of course there are people who work at Rumble who we also know truly do believe in the cause and they've been transparent and helpful.

00:37:19.000 Could have had the servers a little more robust on election night, but you know what?

00:37:22.000 Hey, I get it.

00:37:24.000 We're all on a learning curve.

00:37:26.000 They're growing!

00:37:28.000 But this is what he tweeted out, Elon Musk.

00:37:29.000 He said, Twitter 2.0 will be far more effective, transparent, and even-handed.

00:37:33.000 Oh, the horror!

00:37:34.000 So in other words, Twitter is only valuable if the user base, that's their capital, holds Elon Musk accountable to his, right there, mission statement.

00:37:44.000 His mission statement is, Twitter 2.0 will be, now this is, hey, how am I going to effectively

00:37:49.000 create value?

00:37:50.000 It will be more effective, transparent, and even-handed.

00:37:54.000 Let's contrast that with Elizabeth Warren, with AOC, with Mark Zuckerberg saying, we

00:37:58.000 need to do more to stop the spread of hate.

00:38:01.000 In other words, that's their business model, where now they are beholden to a user base

00:38:05.000 who says, yeah, yeah, we want you to work with the government and get rid of misinformation.

00:38:09.000 The people who are going to be using Twitter, the only reason that they are going to Twitter

00:38:14.000 No, it is clear as day.

00:38:15.000 It's because Elon Musk has promised that it will be more effective, transparent, and even-handed.

00:38:18.000 Look, we can disagree.

00:38:20.000 Do you want more control?

00:38:21.000 Do you want more clamping down on misinformation, like getting rid of the Hunter Biden laptop story?

00:38:26.000 Do you want to get rid of hate, meaning people who say that, hey, maybe we shouldn't have mass mail-in voting?

00:38:31.000 Or do you line up with the mission statement from Elon Musk?

00:38:34.000 Effective, transparent, even-handed approach.

00:38:37.000 That's a question that I have that only you can answer.

00:38:39.000 This really does come down to your own personal opinion.

00:38:42.000 What do you expect to see and which one do you line up with?

00:38:44.000 Yeah.

00:38:44.000 And they can comment there below.

00:38:45.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:38:46.000 So what I hope to see, though, too, is that he releases the information that he's talked about releasing, too.

00:38:50.000 He has said in the past that he is going to release information about the back, behind-the-scenes communications between the White House and Twitter and everybody else.

00:38:59.000 So what do you expect, I guess, is what I want to know.

00:39:01.000 Like, the viewer, Steven, you guys, like, do you expect it to be this, like, I want to hear Dave first, because I have some information that you can tell me when to shut up, because you know, with the half-Asian lawyer bill. 1.00

00:39:12.000 No, I just agree.

00:39:12.000 So, Dave, you go first.

00:39:13.000 Like, if he's got access to everything that's happened now that he owns the company and he's saying election tampering and everything else, obviously he has some intel.

00:39:22.000 I would like to see it.

00:39:22.000 Yeah.

00:39:23.000 Hey, you know what, Elon?

00:39:24.000 And Gerald, you can tell me when I have to shut up.

00:39:26.000 Hold on, what are you going to say?

00:39:26.000 Don't tell me to shut up.

00:39:27.000 You can look into our account, because we did file motions with Twitter.

00:39:31.000 Hold on, hold on.

00:39:31.000 Do we have a lawsuit?

00:39:32.000 We don't have a current lawsuit.

00:39:32.000 Are we suing them?

00:39:33.000 They're suing us?

00:39:35.000 It's tough to keep track, but I do know that we filed some motions and we won.

00:39:37.000 Check Dorsey, maybe. 0.99

00:39:39.000 Look into what happened with me.

00:39:40.000 So here's what happened.

00:39:41.000 This is a story that actually happened with Twitter, just so you can understand some context.

00:39:45.000 And by the way, I would say this under oath.

00:39:47.000 So, consider this a penalty of perjury if I'm lying.

00:39:53.000 So, Elon, okay?

00:39:55.000 Go look into what happened with my account.

00:39:56.000 Here's what happened.

00:39:57.000 Twitter reached out to me and said, hey, you can reach more users if you advertise to people.

00:40:01.000 And I said, oh, okay.

00:40:02.000 At this point, I wasn't really running a lot of advertising, but the business was growing.

00:40:04.000 I believe this might have been around 2011.

00:40:07.000 I said, how do I do that?

00:40:08.000 They said, well, what do you want?

00:40:09.000 Do you want your tweets to get more interactions or do you want to gain more followers?

00:40:11.000 And I said, well, you know what?

00:40:12.000 At the time I was on Fox News and a lot of people weren't online.

00:40:15.000 They would see me on Fox News, but they wouldn't give me the plugs.

00:40:18.000 So I said, you know, I'd like to kind of, you know, target people who might see me on television and give them the opportunity to follow me.

00:40:18.000 Right.

00:40:23.000 They said, oh, so you want a targeted campaign to find followers?

00:40:26.000 They came to me.

00:40:27.000 I said, okay, how do I do that?

00:40:28.000 They said, well, you can just write out a few tweets.

00:40:31.000 So something, and they wrote out these tweets themselves.

00:40:34.000 Twitter ads, to be clear.

00:40:35.000 Approached me and wrote the ads themselves.

00:40:39.000 I didn't do it.

00:40:41.000 And they said, yeah, you know, things like, create a set of three or four or five tweets, and what'll happen is it'll show up in someone's timeline when you pay, and it'll offer these people to follow you.

00:40:49.000 It'll say promoted account.

00:40:50.000 I said, okay.

00:40:51.000 One of them was, hate progressives, follow me to quell thy pain, as seen on the New York Fox News.

00:40:57.000 Right.

00:40:57.000 Okay.

00:40:58.000 They then, later on, either suspended me or removed my Twitter analytics saying that that was a violation of hate speech.

00:41:05.000 I'm like, wait, wait!

00:41:08.000 You took money for that and you wrote it!

00:41:11.000 You cashed the check!

00:41:13.000 And so what ended up happening is they said, okay, well, we'll unsuspend you, but you know what, you just can't run ads anymore.

00:41:13.000 Yes!

00:41:17.000 I'm like, you mean I can't, I can't run the ads you wrote?

00:41:20.000 You asked me to run ads!

00:41:22.000 I don't understand.

00:41:23.000 At S Crowder, Elon Musk, go look into the advertisement history.

00:41:26.000 Yes.

00:41:26.000 You can question me.

00:41:28.000 Call me to the mat.

00:41:29.000 And you know what the truth is?

00:41:29.000 That happened.

00:41:30.000 Like, yeah, it would obviously make a difference for everyone if you don't have the ability to advertise.

00:41:34.000 We don't have the ability to advertise on Google at all.

00:41:34.000 On Twitter.

00:41:36.000 Any plays that you see right now on YouTube, just so you know, those aren't pay- We can't pay!

00:41:40.000 We cannot pay to plump up the- They will not take our money.

00:41:42.000 They will not allow us to advertise.

00:41:43.000 No.

00:41:44.000 I don't think Facebook will either.

00:41:45.000 And that's not censorship.

00:41:45.000 No.

00:41:47.000 That's just- You have right of way, Elizabeth Warren.

00:41:50.000 You can advertise the campaigns that we wrote for you.

00:41:53.000 Again, do you feel free?

00:41:54.000 It's not, do you live in a society with laws?

00:41:56.000 And it's not, do you engage on social platforms that have rules?

00:42:00.000 It's, are they applied equally?

00:42:02.000 And the answer is invariably no.

00:42:04.000 If you agree with that, look, hit the like button, because that pisses off YouTube.

00:42:07.000 With the algorithm, you can share.

00:42:09.000 Or better yet, head on over to Rumble, hit the Rumble button!

00:42:11.000 Because that actually means something!

00:42:15.000 I think.

00:42:16.000 I don't know what Rumble button means.

00:42:16.000 I don't know what it does.

00:42:17.000 Do you feel better?

00:42:18.000 I just know I hit the Rumble button, it's cathartic.

00:42:19.000 It's a plus.

00:42:23.000 That's not a real person.

00:42:25.000 Who is that?

00:42:26.000 That's Tim Cook.

00:42:27.000 That's Tim Zissou.

00:42:29.000 Oh yeah, he was like, yeah.

00:42:32.000 He's definitely going like, yeah, we're not going to have Twitter on the App Store.

00:42:37.000 Is Elon behind me?

00:42:38.000 Bring that back up.

00:42:40.000 Oh yeah, no, I was joking.

00:42:42.000 That's life autistic with Tim Zissou. 0.73

00:42:44.000 I feel like Denzel Washington's about to say, I just don't feel comfortable representing you in court.

00:42:51.000 But what do you want, Denzel?

00:42:54.000 You had more hats!

00:42:56.000 So, here's something else I want to talk about.

00:42:59.000 Okay, this is a little more general, but it is something that affects a lot of you, and believe me, I hear you.

00:43:02.000 We'll be taking your chat on Mug Club.

00:43:03.000 We've all talked about this.

00:43:05.000 I do think there's unfortunately a disconnect with people who just say, okay, okay, boomer.

00:43:10.000 Like, hold on a second, you mean the people who birthed you?

00:43:11.000 Right?

00:43:12.000 They've contributed to society, but I also understand that there are some grievances.

00:43:16.000 From Generation Z, from younger millennials who are saying that the American dream feels further and further out of reach.

00:43:21.000 There is some truth to it.

00:43:23.000 And by the way, boomers, older people right now who are likely going to retire, you can't just discount this because you are part of a generation that enjoyed some prosperity that won't exist before or after.

00:43:35.000 Just to be clear, the baby boom generation.

00:43:37.000 And you do need to understand that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme and at some point someone's going to be screwed.

00:43:42.000 So when you talk to young people, you say, oh I played into Social Security, so were they!

00:43:45.000 They're probably not going to get it back.

00:43:46.000 Probably not going to get it back.

00:43:48.000 So I think there's a disconnect, and there really is a silver lining.

00:43:52.000 The beauty is, yeah, you actually can live a much better life than your parents.

00:43:55.000 It all comes down to your choices, and that is what you have now that they didn't have.

00:43:59.000 So, is the middle class screwed?

00:44:02.000 Do you have it harder than The boomers. 0.99

00:44:06.000 And one thing I think conservatives get wrong, you can let me know if you disagree with me here, I think sometimes a disconnect takes place when you have conservatives saying, yeah, well, your parents didn't have, and they name iPhone, lattes, luxuries.

00:44:17.000 Let's not compare necessities like home cost or, um, you know, how much you make at a job or a vehicle.

00:44:24.000 Let's not compare that with niceties.

00:44:26.000 I get it.

00:44:27.000 A lot of young people are irresponsible and they spend far too much on luxuries, but that's a separate argument.

00:44:31.000 It's not a comparison.

00:44:33.000 That's what's being sold to them endlessly, though.

00:44:35.000 Right.

00:44:36.000 That's what you're supposed to have.

00:44:36.000 It's luxuries.

00:44:37.000 You deserve this.

00:44:39.000 Right.

00:44:40.000 So this is something that you'll see a lot from, like, baby boomers will say, like, well, why don't you, you know, why haven't you started a family?

00:44:44.000 Why don't you have grandchildren?

00:44:45.000 I was married to your mom and I bought a home.

00:44:47.000 OK, this is the kind of thing that you will hear.

00:44:49.000 And then you have people who are younger saying, well, that's out of reach.

00:44:52.000 So let's go to then and now and give you an apples to apples comparison.

00:44:55.000 Here's a then.

00:44:56.000 Oh, let's go.

00:44:56.000 Is it a stinger?

00:44:57.000 I did not green light System of a Down in anything.

00:45:06.000 La la la la la la la la la! 1.00

00:45:08.000 He's got some good songs.

00:45:13.000 Casey's been waiting to hit that for eight months.

00:45:16.000 Did he just load that in?

00:45:17.000 He's just waiting.

00:45:18.000 All right, so my question to you, before I continue, is do you feel like it is out of reach?

00:45:22.000 The American Dream, if you are younger.

00:45:23.000 Okay, let me be really clear about this.

00:45:25.000 I'm trying to give you as close to an apples-to-apples comparison as I can.

00:45:29.000 All of the numbers that you hear, the dollar amounts have been adjusted for inflation, so are in today's dollars, so you don't have to do the math.

00:45:35.000 Just to be clear, because I can hear that criticism before you make it, references are available at lightearthcutter.com.

00:45:40.000 So, let's go to then.

00:45:43.000 Let's look at home prices.

00:45:45.000 So, the adjusted, again, the median home price in 1963, for example, was around $175,000.

00:45:50.000 $18,000 then, probably.

00:45:54.000 Yeah, something like that.

00:45:55.000 Oh, look!

00:45:57.000 It was $18,000 then!

00:45:58.000 You cheated!

00:45:59.000 I didn't cheat!

00:46:02.000 Good for you, I cheat sometimes.

00:46:05.000 I look before the show, sometimes I do a little research.

00:46:08.000 So that's then.

00:46:08.000 I like to have a laugh.

00:46:09.000 I won't lie.

00:46:10.000 Let's look at now.

00:46:11.000 Okay, now the median home price in 2022 is $425,000.

00:46:13.000 We are in a bit of a bubble, but it is very expensive.

00:46:18.000 So in other words, that's a legitimate grievance.

00:46:20.000 I understand that.

00:46:21.000 We'll give some more context after.

00:46:22.000 Loans are 6.5% also right now.

00:46:25.000 Yeah, that's very low historically.

00:46:27.000 That's what people don't understand.

00:46:28.000 You know what your parents were paying in the 70s?

00:46:29.000 They were paying double digits.

00:46:30.000 Oh yeah, that's true.

00:46:32.000 If someone in the 60s or 70s had a 6%, they'd be like, oh my god, I got off easy!

00:46:36.000 But this generation is used to 2%, 3%. 0.99

00:46:39.000 Again, because of artificially manipulated markets with the Fed.

00:46:41.000 So, let's now look at cars.

00:46:43.000 That's a necessity.

00:46:43.000 Let's go back, then!

00:46:45.000 Original price of Chevy's most popular truck in 63?

00:46:48.000 I think it was the C10?

00:46:49.000 Today's dollars?

00:46:51.000 About $20,000.

00:46:52.000 Okay, that seems pretty good.

00:46:54.000 Now...

00:46:56.000 The average full-size pickup truck is $61,000.

00:47:00.000 That would seem like it's far more expensive.

00:47:01.000 Again, we're doing the same dollars.

00:47:03.000 They're adjusted for inflation, the dollars.

00:47:05.000 That's the average full-size pickup today.

00:47:08.000 You had one choice back then.

00:47:09.000 I'll get to that in a second.

00:47:12.000 And here is one that is absolutely true.

00:47:13.000 Boomers, I'm just asking if you're going to talk with your kids over the holiday season.

00:47:17.000 Older people, you need to understand the world they're living in and the language that they speak. 1.00

00:47:20.000 Let's go back then, the cost of education, okay?

00:47:23.000 Back then, the yearly cost of tuition, uh, we have, uh, public...

00:47:26.000 public colleges, universities, $2,300 on average private, $9,700 again, that's in today's dollars,

00:47:33.000 just to be clear. Let's go to now, and this is a real problem, tuition, fees, public $10,400,

00:47:41.000 private $49,000. Wow, everything was just triple until that one. Right. So here's the, that's

00:47:50.000 That is something where you look at it.

00:47:52.000 Let's add up all of these costs, just from this first person in the segment, okay?

00:47:55.000 So you have a house, $425,000.

00:47:57.000 Car, $62,000.

00:47:58.000 Education, $45,000 for that public four-year degree.

00:48:01.000 Yeah, that's the public one.

00:48:02.000 Yeah, that's the public one, just to be clear.

00:48:03.000 You're getting off easy.

00:48:05.000 So, look, you can live this, but does that actually look comparable to your parents?

00:48:10.000 Or if you are a parent, does that maybe give you some context here as to why young people are upset?

00:48:15.000 Because you need to know why they're upset so that you can be ready for the lie that comes down the pike. 0.98

00:48:20.000 And the lie is, you need the government to come in and save you.

00:48:23.000 You need the government to provide, you know, cash for clunkers. 1.00

00:48:26.000 You need the government to provide student debt relief.

00:48:28.000 You need the government to have rent forgiveness.

00:48:28.000 Right?

00:48:30.000 If you accept that those are the same costs for everybody, or you accept the premise that you have to go to university.

00:48:36.000 Oh, and by the way, university became unaffordable, so the government has to make up that gap.

00:48:39.000 And so if you're in university and you're not overcharging for a degree, guess what?

00:48:42.000 You're leaving money on the table because some other prick who's a dean is going to take that grant from Uncle Sam.

00:48:48.000 Let's be clear.

00:48:49.000 This inflation, you're living it right now.

00:48:51.000 More government intervention now.

00:48:53.000 Compare the inflation today versus what you had under Donald Trump.

00:48:56.000 Okay.

00:48:57.000 That means by the time our kids are old enough though, sorry to interrupt, you're going to have to be a millionaire to survive.

00:49:03.000 Well, that's what you would believe until you take some other things into consideration.

00:49:09.000 If you're doing apples to apples, this was the path for my parents.

00:49:12.000 What you would do is you would go to college, then you'd work a job, and then you would retire.

00:49:17.000 You'd be able to get vacation.

00:49:18.000 You'd live in this house.

00:49:19.000 You'd have this car.

00:49:20.000 There are a lot... Die with regret?

00:49:22.000 Yes.

00:49:23.000 Some things remain steadfast.

00:49:25.000 Okay, good.

00:49:26.000 But there are a lot of variables that aren't being taken into consideration.

00:49:29.000 Young people.

00:49:30.000 So that first portion was for older people, parents, and how to talk with your kids, understanding where they're coming from.

00:49:36.000 Go check out the references.

00:49:37.000 Young people, let me provide you with some hope here.

00:49:40.000 And this isn't false hope.

00:49:41.000 So, let's look at, sure, homes seem expensive.

00:49:44.000 But let's look at what happened to homes over the last half a century.

00:49:47.000 The size of the average American home has grown by more than a thousand square feet.

00:49:52.000 Okay?

00:49:53.000 There were no man caves, and there certainly were no reality shows about your home bar.

00:49:57.000 It didn't exist.

00:49:59.000 You're talking about a thousand to fifteen hundred square feet.

00:50:01.000 Okay?

00:50:02.000 Now let's look at cars.

00:50:04.000 Right?

00:50:05.000 Well, you can get, by the way, an economy car for around that 20-something thousand dollars.

00:50:10.000 Only, keep in mind that the economy car today actually does have air conditioning, which that truck did not have back then.

00:50:17.000 Actually lasts to 100,000 miles, which was the max on the odometer back then.

00:50:21.000 Has airbags, seatbelts!

00:50:24.000 The point is, you have options.

00:50:25.000 If you're saying truck to truck, sure.

00:50:27.000 What about truck to crossover SUV?

00:50:29.000 What about truck-to-economy car?

00:50:30.000 If you're saying house-to-house, sure.

00:50:32.000 What about 1,300-square-foot house-to-1,300-square-foot house?

00:50:35.000 We need to do the apples-to-apples comparison if we're going to do dollars with the size and with the amenities, with the capabilities that come with it.

00:50:42.000 Again, how many people out there Who are poor, who live in Texas or Florida, driving a car today without air conditioning.

00:50:52.000 No, no, and just don't skip over this power steering.

00:50:54.000 You don't have to be Liver King to actually turn a car now, right?

00:50:57.000 If you've ever driven a car without power steering.

00:51:00.000 We had bigger forearms back then for a reason.

00:51:02.000 Yeah, it was pretty much impossible to turn.

00:51:05.000 Yeah, just, and also even shifting back then, it was quite a task.

00:51:09.000 Liver King couldn't do it.

00:51:10.000 He's on so many stories, his ligaments are a fine powder.

00:51:13.000 He'd be like, oh, I gotta turn.

00:51:16.000 I assure you that car from the 60s isn't automatic.

00:51:20.000 You were much busier.

00:51:21.000 And the clutch actively hated you.

00:51:26.000 So we have all these safety standards now when we're talking about cars.

00:51:28.000 Fatalities have dropped 78% since 1960.

00:51:31.000 And again, they last two to three times as long.

00:51:33.000 You have this from the New York Times.

00:51:34.000 All the references are publicly available.

00:51:36.000 Okay, here's something else.

00:51:37.000 Let's look at the houses, okay?

00:51:39.000 You buy a home right now for the same price and the same square footage as the average house in 1963.

00:51:45.000 You can buy a home today at around that same price!

00:51:49.000 So a rural home in Fates, Texas, for example, $199,000.

00:51:52.000 Even an urban condo in North Dallas, $169,000.

00:51:55.000 That's a smaller one, just to be clear.

00:51:57.000 Comes with a bulletproof vest, too.

00:51:59.000 Yes, it does.

00:51:59.000 Yes.

00:52:00.000 Well, it's like bulletproof glass.

00:52:02.000 The freebie, yeah.

00:52:03.000 They tell you to bob and weave. 0.72

00:52:04.000 They just ask you to walk around with the glass so it becomes a vest.

00:52:06.000 You're gonna want the garage and shut it quickly after you pull in.

00:52:09.000 Yes, and keep the exhaust running because it's going to be a rough night.

00:52:12.000 No reason to stay alive there.

00:52:16.000 So let's give an apples-to-apples comparison.

00:52:18.000 For that exact same car, you spend $20,000 that your parents spent.

00:52:21.000 You can have a very reliable car with amenities that they didn't have.

00:52:25.000 For example, you can get a 2018-2019 Ford Fusion.

00:52:28.000 You can get a 2018-2020 Toyota Camry.

00:52:30.000 You can get a Subaru Legacy.

00:52:32.000 But why would you?

00:52:33.000 I mean, come on, nobody buys a Subaru Legacy.

00:52:35.000 Well, hold on.

00:52:35.000 No, like, we have lesbian viewers.

00:52:36.000 Oh, I do.

00:52:40.000 Doesn't Hootie drive this? 0.97

00:52:42.000 Hey! 0.99

00:52:43.000 You can get cars for $10,000.

00:52:45.000 2014 Chevrolet Spark, $7,700.

00:52:46.000 What?

00:52:47.000 Kia Soul. 1.00

00:52:48.000 Don't talk about those gerbil commercials, I swear to God I will murder you. 0.99

00:52:50.000 $9,500. 0.82

00:52:51.000 Nissan Versa, which I will never drive ever again.

00:52:57.000 Yeah, I rented one of those and I was like, could I get something I won't die in if wind hits me?

00:53:02.000 Was it a Kia or was it a Nissan Versa?

00:53:04.000 Versa.

00:53:05.000 Oh, yeah, I had that too.

00:53:06.000 Was it LAX?

00:53:07.000 Yeah, it was.

00:53:08.000 Yeah, they always have the Nissan Versa.

00:53:09.000 That's the one time I got it.

00:53:10.000 The last time I got a ticket was LAX.

00:53:12.000 Sorry, this is an aside, but this really matters.

00:53:14.000 I hate Nissan Versa.

00:53:15.000 Don't rent one or buy one.

00:53:17.000 When you're in LA, people who live in urban areas, you don't know if your headlights are on or off because everything is lit, right?

00:53:22.000 You're driving in an urban area.

00:53:23.000 Here's the problem with this year of Nissan Versa.

00:53:26.000 I leave Hertz at LAX.

00:53:27.000 The headlights aren't on.

00:53:28.000 I couldn't know, because all the interior lights automatically turned on, as though it was nighttime.

00:53:34.000 So I get pulled over by a police officer, not a mile from LAX, saying, uh, hey, you know why he pulled you over?

00:53:39.000 And I wasn't even being a smartass.

00:53:41.000 I said, like, I... I know you hear this a lot.

00:53:43.000 I genuinely have no idea.

00:53:45.000 He goes, uh, so you don't see a need for headlights?

00:53:48.000 Lights?

00:53:50.000 I'm missing... No, the lights are on.

00:53:51.000 He's like, well, your headlights are on. 1.00

00:53:52.000 I said, you're bullshit! 1.00

00:53:54.000 He said, tell it to the judge. 1.00

00:53:57.000 And I did, and I lost. 0.99

00:53:58.000 And then four other LA cops came and beat the shit out of you. 1.00

00:54:02.000 Stop resisting, sir! 0.99

00:54:03.000 That was the citizens when I was doing my weekly semi-route.

00:54:06.000 They dragged me in.

00:54:08.000 So we have homes.

00:54:09.000 Hey, you can do what your parents did.

00:54:11.000 Cars.

00:54:11.000 Hey, you can do what your parents did.

00:54:12.000 You can even do it for cheaper and have more luxury.

00:54:14.000 So let's look at education.

00:54:15.000 Wait, sorry, we have a quick breaking news story.

00:54:17.000 Oh, what's happening guys?

00:54:19.000 Ha ha ha ha Yeah

00:54:23.000 Is that a new commercial?

00:54:27.000 Come on.

00:54:29.000 It gets better.

00:54:32.000 Yeah, you know why they're on the street? 1.00

00:54:34.000 Because it won't start, because it's a piece of crap. 0.99

00:54:40.000 By the way, could it be more racist as far as those roles go? 1.00

00:54:44.000 That's very true. 0.99

00:54:45.000 Yeah, you know, they're hamsters doing black stuff. 1.00

00:54:49.000 That's my pitch.

00:54:50.000 Flavor cage!

00:54:52.000 What?

00:54:53.000 What are you talking about?

00:54:54.000 They're just happy to be out of Richard Gere and singing again.

00:54:54.000 I don't know.

00:55:00.000 It's an ad campaign created by a bunch of Koreans. 1.00

00:55:03.000 We make an animal like a black man. 1.00

00:55:05.000 We love the devil! 1.00

00:55:07.000 Eh, it's good.

00:55:08.000 We admire your Richard Pryor.

00:55:10.000 Fine.

00:55:10.000 Who's going to watch that commercial and go, yeah.

00:55:12.000 That's my kind of car.

00:55:13.000 That's the kind of car I drive.

00:55:14.000 Gerald did at one point.

00:55:15.000 He liked them.

00:55:15.000 I did not.

00:55:17.000 I used to own one.

00:55:17.000 Listen.

00:55:18.000 Well, you used to own the car, but you didn't like the commercials.

00:55:20.000 No, no, no. 1.00

00:55:20.000 The commercials were shit. 1.00

00:55:21.000 The car was fine. 1.00

00:55:23.000 With your giant gold cross and Timberlands.

00:55:25.000 It's a bridge tube car!

00:55:29.000 Here's the thing, don't trust experts.

00:55:32.000 An expert ad agency came up with that, and no one stopped it.

00:55:36.000 For example, I had a fridge that broke, and so I got a new fridge.

00:55:39.000 I swear to you, and I'm gonna get to education in a second, but I swear to you, this is a fridge.

00:55:46.000 And when I was a kid, I used to think that if you had an ice maker or water from your fridge, you were the rich person.

00:55:51.000 You know what I mean?

00:55:51.000 You're like, that person's rich.

00:55:52.000 You don't have to do the trays?

00:55:55.000 I can't be busy being bothered.

00:55:56.000 What am I, retired?

00:55:57.000 So, usually you have left and right ice, right?

00:56:01.000 You have ice and you have water.

00:56:02.000 Or, you have a button with one spout that goes from ice to water.

00:56:06.000 The engineers decided that in this one they were going to have the ice button recessed into the fridge and then the water button in front of it.

00:56:14.000 Here's the problem.

00:56:16.000 In the middle of the night, there's only one light.

00:56:18.000 So if I put my cup up to get water, I'm covering the only light for the ice spout.

00:56:24.000 And it leaks all over the floor and now I have water damage.

00:56:27.000 No one at Maytag said, hey, hold on a second!

00:56:32.000 You won't see the light.

00:56:33.000 These are the experts.

00:56:34.000 Your engineers didn't realize the problem that took me three seconds.

00:56:39.000 I think it's important to say this one too, if you can even find it.

00:56:42.000 The 2003 Focus was a Detroit Technofest Focus.

00:56:46.000 Oh boy.

00:56:46.000 This was a car designed for people on a designer drug.

00:56:50.000 Yes!

00:56:51.000 Like, it was for people on Ecstasy listening to techno music, and they even had a commercial for it, and I was like, is Ecstasy so popular that we're actually just making it into cars now?

00:57:01.000 Like, somebody's like, is it the Pacifier just at Ford?

00:57:04.000 Like, I got an idea.

00:57:05.000 More speakers in this tiny car.

00:57:07.000 Why don't you think they name the next one the Fiesta?

00:57:09.000 Yeah, there you go.

00:57:09.000 We're gonna feature it in the movie Go.

00:57:11.000 Is it safer?

00:57:12.000 No, no.

00:57:13.000 Especially with one of us behind the wheel.

00:57:15.000 Yes.

00:57:16.000 Wait till you see our Ford Burning Man.

00:57:19.000 Hint!

00:57:20.000 It's you!

00:57:20.000 It's the Honda Bonnaroo.

00:57:25.000 The Subaru Coachella.

00:57:27.000 Firefests.

00:57:28.000 They're just all piled up. 0.99

00:57:30.000 It's just a bunch of lesbians on an island. 1.00

00:57:33.000 So, no! 0.99

00:57:34.000 I'm telling you.

00:57:36.000 How insane is this?

00:57:38.000 This is why nobody really remembers it.

00:57:41.000 This is the Focus?

00:57:42.000 I'm telling you, it was designed... It's a drug ad for people on ecstasy.

00:57:47.000 You would have to be on drugs to think that car looks good.

00:57:51.000 It's so plain.

00:57:52.000 This is for somebody rolling on E. Look at that!

00:57:57.000 The editors are going to have their work cut out for Crowder Bits.

00:57:59.000 So, we've gone through housing, we've gone through cars.

00:58:01.000 Now let's get to education.

00:58:02.000 Yeah, that's the one I want.

00:58:04.000 The editors are going to have their work cut out for Crowder Bits.

00:58:06.000 So, we've gone through housing, we've gone through cars.

00:58:11.000 Now let's get to education. This is one.

00:58:13.000 This is one that is a problem.

00:58:15.000 If you believe that you have to get a college education today.

00:58:19.000 Hint, that's a lie.

00:58:20.000 So we compared the costs, right?

00:58:22.000 It's more than four times when you're talking about a major university.

00:58:26.000 Or, so now you have the home price that's the same as your parents.

00:58:29.000 Now you have a car that's cheaper than your parents.

00:58:30.000 You have more luxuries.

00:58:31.000 You have air conditioning.

00:58:32.000 Hey, seatbelts, you're doing better.

00:58:33.000 But let's compare university versus a trade school.

00:58:36.000 Cost on average for trade school is somewhere around $5,000 to complete.

00:58:42.000 And if you look at people who graduate from trade school, unlike people who have a master's in gender studies, starting salaries, depending on the trade, they can begin at $80,000.

00:58:52.000 So let's go through this in a conclusion.

00:58:55.000 Sure, are houses more expensive in general?

00:58:58.000 Yes.

00:58:58.000 Are cars more expensive in general?

00:59:00.000 Sure, if you want to get the expensive car.

00:59:02.000 Is college tuition more expensive in general?

00:59:05.000 Absolutely.

00:59:05.000 Astronomically so.

00:59:07.000 But that doesn't have to be the American dream, because you can now live in a more rural area, or a suburban area, or you can live in a condo, which was not an option available to people in the 1960s.

00:59:17.000 You can pay the same amount as your parents, have modern amenities, you know, like air conditioning, locks.

00:59:22.000 You can drive a car, a used car, an economy car, for cheaper than your parents.

00:59:25.000 You can go to trade school and make more money than your parents could have ever dreamed of making.

00:59:31.000 In their early 20s.

00:59:32.000 That is an option that is available to you right now.

00:59:36.000 You just have to go out and take it and not think that, for example, a Ford Focus or a Subaru Outback or, for example, being an electrician is beneath you because that's what you're missing.

00:59:47.000 Your parents didn't think that it was beneath them.

00:59:50.000 Yeah, they made this and they got to go on vacation.

00:59:52.000 Your dad was working on a factory line, just to be clear.

00:59:57.000 You want to work in an office, and by the way, you don't think that you should have to go into the office because you were raised during a pandemic.

01:00:03.000 That was, well, I shouldn't say you were raised.

01:00:04.000 You were raised during government policies thrust upon you under the guise of a pandemic where you think you can show up to work maybe twice a month and make that kind of a full-time salary.

01:00:13.000 You have far more choice available to you.

01:00:16.000 That's why the left is so aggressive in pushing the lie.

01:00:19.000 They need you to believe the lie so that you are dependent upon them.

01:00:23.000 To sustain your life.

01:00:24.000 Because hey, if you believe school is out of reach, a car is out of reach, a house is out of reach, every government policy will be accepted with open arms.

01:00:32.000 When you understand the options that you have, guess what?

01:00:36.000 Congratulations, you've now just turned into a registered Republican, or at the very least a conservative.

01:00:40.000 You don't need an R next to your name.

01:00:42.000 So, you can comment below.

01:00:43.000 I'd like to hear your choices that you have made.

01:00:45.000 If you're a millennial, if you're Generation Z. I really wanted to recap this because we hear, look, this is the one sort of show on the right where a lot of you, the average viewers, I think 28 years old, 31 years old, you know, we're not selling, we don't, I mean, we have G. Gordon Liddy waiting in the wings.

01:00:59.000 He's on retainer.

01:01:00.000 We haven't used him yet.

01:01:01.000 Right.

01:01:01.000 Of course.

01:01:01.000 I mean, not yet.

01:01:03.000 Yeah.

01:01:03.000 But you are right.

01:01:03.000 I mean, that's very interesting about that.

01:01:06.000 I would have said it was dead, but now that I think about it, it's not.

01:01:09.000 Well, it's just like right here where we, it's like, okay, go 20 miles, go 20 miles out. 0.99

01:01:12.000 And now the house price is crap. 0.94

01:01:14.000 And you're right, like working on the line, you know? 0.99

01:01:16.000 Yeah.

01:01:17.000 And I mean, you're drunk, you got a cigarette hanging out of your mouth.

01:01:19.000 Sure.

01:01:20.000 You still come home with all your fingers and a paycheck.

01:01:22.000 That's amazing.

01:01:23.000 Yes, exactly.

01:01:23.000 That's a win.

01:01:24.000 Yeah.

01:01:25.000 Well, and they want it now.

01:01:26.000 That's one of the biggest problems is that kids right now see the success of their parents and they go, ooh, I want all of that right now.

01:01:32.000 Whereas their parents were, at least maybe not this previous generation Gen Z, but the baby boomers were like, I'm going to work for it and get it over time. 0.98

01:01:39.000 I'm going to make smart decisions throughout my life.

01:01:41.000 A lot of them are entitled.

01:01:42.000 A lot of them are entitled people who vote Republican because they go, I got my pension.

01:01:47.000 I got my social security!

01:01:49.000 They became entitled, in my opinion, a lot of them.

01:01:51.000 They went to work.

01:01:52.000 They went and fought the Great Wars.

01:01:53.000 They went and did everything that they were supposed to do, and then said, we are entitled to this, and the entitlement carried over to the next generation, the 70s kids, and they said, we are entitled to this, the government... Well, that's baby boomers. 0.84

01:02:04.000 You're talking about the great generations when we fought World War II.

01:02:06.000 Baby boomers came after them. 1.00

01:02:07.000 Well, I was saying, maybe World War II and then the Korean War and, you know... Yeah, yeah, yeah, but that wasn't, that largely wasn't boomers.

01:02:11.000 The Great War, the Great War... You're a little off on your timeline, but the principle remains.

01:02:14.000 Some of them are good, some of them are pricks.

01:02:15.000 That's true.

01:02:16.000 And you don't get everything right now.

01:02:17.000 You have to work for it a little bit.

01:02:18.000 Yeah.

01:02:19.000 It takes time, and you do have choices available to you.

01:02:22.000 And this is really what it comes to.

01:02:23.000 When we're talking about Twitter, we're talking about big tech.

01:02:25.000 It really does come down to one side.

01:02:27.000 And look, right, left, man, they want to have you keep fighting with each other.

01:02:31.000 No, no, no. 1.00

01:02:31.000 That's a stupid thing that fence-sitters use as an excuse to be a pussy. 1.00

01:02:36.000 Hey, man, let's stop fighting. 1.00

01:02:37.000 Hold on a second.

01:02:39.000 We just got into three fights today.

01:02:40.000 Why?

01:02:41.000 Because Elizabeth Warren wants entire government control of big tech. 1.00

01:02:45.000 I am willing to fight.

01:02:46.000 That's not someone who engineered me, man, to fight.

01:02:48.000 No, that's wrong.

01:02:49.000 I want to fight her.

01:02:50.000 Why? 0.90

01:02:50.000 Because I don't like her. 0.90

01:02:51.000 And I don't like her ideas.

01:02:52.000 Figuratively, to be clear, she's far too brittle. 0.99

01:02:57.000 She's not taking steroids.

01:02:58.000 Same thing when we're talking about Mark Zuckerberg.

01:02:59.000 We're talking about student loan forgiveness.

01:03:01.000 We're talking about rent forgiveness.

01:03:03.000 What does that really mean?

01:03:03.000 It means it screws the person who is not a landlord, who is a home provider who has to make those payments.

01:03:11.000 If you keep buying into the lie, think of this for a second.

01:03:14.000 We've talked about wealth transfers, okay, with COVID.

01:03:17.000 Private wealth transfers to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars when you're talking about, you know, Amazon and Apple during the pandemic because mom-and-pop shops were closed.

01:03:23.000 What kind of a wealth transfer do you think happens if you buy into all these lies and you say, yeah, yeah, no, I don't even go to trade school and, you know, work a job myself.

01:03:31.000 What I need is student loan forgiveness.

01:03:33.000 The government just to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars decides, hey, we're now going to give this to universities.

01:03:38.000 Hey, now they're wealthier.

01:03:40.000 You say, oh, you know, hold on a second, hold on a second, you know, I don't have the money for a car.

01:03:43.000 Hey, you know what? We're gonna provide some kind of a grant. Guess what?

01:03:46.000 Now you have auto manufacturers who have also received bailouts.

01:03:49.000 They're much richer.

01:03:50.000 Yeah.

01:03:50.000 The wealth that would be in the middle class if you made your own choices is now in their pockets.

01:03:55.000 What do you think happens with, ah, I can't afford a home?

01:03:57.000 Well, you know what? Hold on a second.

01:03:58.000 We're gonna make sure that banks, they're forced to lend to you.

01:04:01.000 Then we'll call it predatory lending.

01:04:02.000 They will lend to you despite the fact that you cannot make those payments back.

01:04:06.000 We will make up the difference.

01:04:07.000 Now you have banks that are too big to fail.

01:04:09.000 It is a giant wealth transfer.

01:04:11.000 The problem is when you see socialists and people like Bernie Sanders saying it's a wealth transfer from the 1% as though it's taking place because of a voluntary exchange of goods and services.

01:04:20.000 The wealth transfer that is taking place is always by force, from locking you down and

01:04:27.000 shutting down your business but keeping Costco and Walmart and Amazon open, to saying, hey,

01:04:32.000 you know what, independent landlords, home providers, we're going to keep you on the

01:04:36.000 hook and everyone else who's a non-contributing zero, we're going to make sure you don't have 0.97

01:04:39.000 to pay rent, to kids who want to waste time with four years of glorified alcoholism saying,

01:04:44.000 hey, you know what, we're actually going to take from the pockets of the people who went

01:04:46.000 to trade school and are paying taxes and make sure that you pay for the student loan forgiveness

01:04:50.000 for this person who won't be able to find a job anyway.

01:04:53.000 The wealth transfers aren't just taking, they're not taking place from the capitalist system, man.

01:04:57.000 They're taking place before your very eyes and they're presented to you as a gift.

01:05:03.000 Has the gift made home prices better?

01:05:06.000 Has the gift made college more affordable?

01:05:09.000 You have to ask yourself that, and then gratefully look at the options before you, and yes, make better choices despite the fact that it's a more complicated world.

01:05:18.000 All right, we're going to chat Thursday.

01:05:19.000 We will see you in New Jersey and Baltimore this week, and we're going to talk about the U.S.
