00:00:33.000 I'm just a little bit caught in the middle.

00:00:36.000 My club's back and it gave me a tickle.

00:00:40.000 I don't know what to say.

00:00:43.000 All I know is that I'm not gay.

00:00:46.000 And I don't know why. 0.94

00:00:48.000 My wife plays along to the silly little moments. 0.70

00:00:52.000 It bugs me, kinda. 0.52

00:00:54.000 But I don't show it.

00:00:56.000 I can't figure it out.

00:00:59.000 It's bringing me down.

00:01:01.000 I know.

00:01:02.000 I've got to let it go.

00:01:06.000 And just enjoy the show.

00:01:09.000 The mug is blue.

00:01:11.000 The coffee is hot.

00:01:13.000 And we're never gonna stop.

00:01:16.000 The people fall.

00:01:18.000 It's all the jokes you want to see.

00:01:24.000 That's why Mug Club's the place to be. 1.00

00:01:28.000 I'm just a little bit caught in the middle.

00:01:37.000 I got caught in the middle of a club's back and it gave me a tickle.

00:01:43.000 I don't know what to say. All I know is that I'm not gay.

00:01:48.000 I'm not gay.

00:01:50.000 I'm not gay.

00:01:51.000 I am the CEO and I demand respect. 0.96

00:01:56.000 Look, none of this happens if you don't join Mug Club. 0.90

00:02:18.000 You're a strange animal Yeah, that's what I know You're a strange animal I got to follow 0.98

00:02:33.000 Nearly speeding to school Again and again and again 0.97

00:02:42.000 again and again K29

00:02:45.000 Well, that's necessary hot tea today, because everyone here, for some reason the bubonic plague has made its way across the office.

00:02:52.000 It has.

00:02:53.000 Which is, you know, that's not why I wasn't here Monday, we had a, you know, we work on things behind the scenes, but then yesterday I said, I would go in but I can't hear!

00:03:01.000 And I still can't hear in my left ear today.

00:03:03.000 Oh no, that's the headphones.

00:03:04.000 We're messing with you.

00:03:04.000 What?

00:03:05.000 Ah!

00:03:05.000 So, uh, we have a lot to get- it's just that congestion.

00:03:09.000 Have you- have you- maybe it's COVID.

00:03:10.000 Who knows?

00:03:11.000 Uh, you comment below if you've had COVID recently.

00:03:13.000 Just don't get tested, please.

00:03:14.000 Don't get tested because then the communists win.

00:03:16.000 So- Today we're going to be talking about quite a few things.

00:03:20.000 I know everyone else is talking about the speaker race, we'll touch on that, but guess what?

00:03:23.000 Doesn't really matter that much.

00:03:25.000 What do I mean?

00:03:25.000 You can't affect it.

00:03:26.000 Okay, bring up the scorecard there, Toolman.

00:03:29.000 We're also going to be talking about the first ever non-binary trans referee.

00:03:32.000 That's redundant, I should just say trans referee.

00:03:35.000 And then Gaza right now, people are talking about how there is no fuel in Gaza because of Israel.

00:03:41.000 The truth is, Incorrect.

00:03:44.000 Wrong.

00:03:45.000 Boom.

00:03:45.000 Sorry, not the truth is incorrect.

00:03:46.000 That is incorrect.

00:03:47.000 The truth is you are hearing a lie, and we are going to do a segment tomorrow.

00:03:50.000 So tune in tomorrow on the actual, this long-standing myth that Israel doesn't allow the Palestinians to have access to their own water.

00:03:57.000 That's not true.

00:03:58.000 Some of the media regurgitates.

00:04:00.000 But more importantly today, as we talk about all of this, I like to discuss things that you can control, or things that we can, at least to some degree, have a positive impact when we discuss it.

00:04:10.000 Property taxes.

00:04:12.000 This is something that right now may not be on your radar, but as we go into elections, people campaign on it and they try and throw out some red meat lines. 0.73

00:04:20.000 Property taxes, where they go, how they affect you, and really how it's effectively long-term theft.

00:04:25.000 So my question to you is, how much do you pay in property taxes, where do you think the money is going, and do you feel like you're getting ripped off?

00:04:32.000 Of course the answer to the last one is yes, but I ask that you show your work.

00:04:36.000 All right.

00:04:37.000 That's fair.

00:04:38.000 Number two, CEO, Gerald, how are you?

00:04:39.000 I'm doing fantastic.

00:04:40.000 I have a new lens now.

00:04:42.000 I don't have the fisheye lens.

00:04:44.000 Yeah, but it looks like you're in hell.

00:04:46.000 It all has a red tint.

00:04:47.000 Yeah, but I have the American flag behind me, so that's... It looks like you're burning the flag.

00:04:51.000 But I'm not.

00:04:52.000 I know you're not, but it looks like you are.

00:04:54.000 Why is that?

00:04:55.000 Look at me and look at him.

00:04:56.000 It's a red tint.

00:04:57.000 You're not that pink.

00:04:58.000 Do I have a red hue?

00:04:59.000 You look like one of those lobsters.

00:05:00.000 Tim, are you doing this on purpose? 0.98

00:05:01.000 Are you punking me right now?

00:05:03.000 No.

00:05:03.000 You're making it seem like a Hamas video from hell.

00:05:06.000 Alright, and then in third chair today, when you hear this you know who it is.

00:05:09.000 He's going to be at the Chicago Improv Friday and Saturday, the 27th and the 28th.

00:05:13.000 And now his show Off Limits right here on Mug Club is moving to Tuesdays.

00:05:16.000 That's news to me, but I'm glad he makes it work.

00:05:18.000 Brian Callen, how are you, sir?

00:05:21.000 I'm good.

00:05:22.000 Give your listeners a second to stop cheering and I'll tell you how I'm doing.

00:05:27.000 I'm not congested.

00:05:28.000 Are you guys good?

00:05:29.000 By the way, do you love how he demanded that we make a promo for Off Limits that looked like Steve Jobs?

00:05:34.000 Bring that up again.

00:05:37.000 It was a photo I found.

00:05:38.000 I bring to you the new Off Limits.

00:05:41.000 Yeah, that was taken by my friend Aaron.

00:05:44.000 I don't remember taking that though.

00:05:46.000 Are you a fruitarian?

00:05:49.000 I'm a fruitarian and I have no furniture in my home.

00:05:52.000 I sit on the floor.

00:05:53.000 Do you know what a fruitarian is?

00:05:54.000 Yes, it's where you just eat fruit from the tree.

00:05:57.000 No, no, no.

00:05:58.000 You only eat... No, see, you're incorrect.

00:06:00.000 Admonish him.

00:06:01.000 Admonish him.

00:06:01.000 I hope he does a lot better on Off Limits.

00:06:04.000 Tell you what, you are well within the limits right now, okay?

00:06:07.000 I don't know what you do with your off limits, but fruitarian is where you only eat the fruit that has already fallen from the tree, because that means it wants you to spread its seed.

00:06:16.000 It's the only way to live harmoniously.

00:06:17.000 Oh, really?

00:06:17.000 Because what I do is I take the fruit from the tree, but then I poo outside.

00:06:22.000 Doesn't matter.

00:06:22.000 Really?

00:06:23.000 Fruitarian's only the fruit that has already fallen. 0.99

00:06:25.000 It's the kind of crazy that has Freud shuffling papers saying, I don't have a form for this shit. 1.00

00:06:29.000 Are you a shititarian? 1.00

00:06:30.000 I mean, I'm sorry. 1.00

00:06:31.000 Yes, I do.

00:06:32.000 Pardon my language.

00:06:33.000 No, it's a full word.

00:06:34.000 It's not the word you think it is.

00:06:34.000 No, it's not the word.

00:06:35.000 Well, either way, you guys are all congested, and I just want everybody to know that my head is clear, but my heart is full.

00:06:41.000 Yes.

00:06:41.000 My heart is full.

00:06:42.000 But if you're a fruitarian, you'll die young. 1.00

00:06:43.000 Bitch. 1.00

00:06:44.000 He shuns traditional cancer treatment. 0.99

00:06:46.000 By the way, I don't know if we're there yet, but if at any point today while you're watching on YouTube and you see this, Head on over to Rumble and watch on Rumble and of course you get to keep watching Mug Club with one click on Rumble.

00:06:58.000 We're just on YouTube because, you know, a lot of you still hang out there and you should be ashamed of yourselves.

00:07:03.000 But I get it!

00:07:05.000 We're about to head into YouTube dump territory because this is our first, just as a palate cleanse, here is a transgender quad amputee. 1.00

00:07:14.000 Is that the term?

00:07:15.000 Ampu-quad? 0.96

00:07:16.000 Yeah, I would call it a quadruple amputee.

00:07:19.000 Quadruple amputee.

00:07:20.000 See, that's why nothing's off-limits with Mr. Callum.

00:07:24.000 Well, no, a pentuple amputee would be a... Oh, okay, all right.

00:07:29.000 I don't think that's a real thing.

00:07:30.000 Well, if you lost your... never mind.

00:07:32.000 So, quadruple amputee.

00:07:36.000 I almost feel we're going to be in the River Styx.

00:07:40.000 doing a viral trend on TikTok.

00:07:42.000 And I said I'm a thank you bae.

00:07:44.000 So, I'm going to be doing a viral trend on TikTok.

00:07:46.000 And I'm going to be doing a viral trend on TikTok.

00:09:04.000 the the

00:09:37.000 look I've already lost the other four things that...

00:09:39.000 Kickstand.

00:09:40.000 That's why I said pent.

00:09:41.000 Yes.

00:09:41.000 That's why I said a pentuple.

00:09:43.000 So bad.

00:09:44.000 I can't count to pent.

00:09:45.000 I can only go quad.

00:09:46.000 And then I skip pent and I go to hex.

00:09:47.000 It's because you didn't pay attention in Latin, dude.

00:09:49.000 I didn't.

00:09:50.000 I didn't.

00:09:51.000 I didn't and I speak French and that's my fault because all the romance languages are based in Latin.

00:09:54.000 So.

00:09:56.000 Wait, tell me more about romance languages.

00:09:57.000 Please.

00:09:58.000 Please.

00:09:59.000 I love romance.

00:10:00.000 I know.

00:10:00.000 Yeah, I know.

00:10:01.000 You seek it.

00:10:01.000 So, trans, but it's not because it's not off limits with Brian.

00:10:05.000 It's not off limits.

00:10:06.000 Not everything.

00:10:07.000 So here's another thing.

00:10:08.000 I stand by that name!

00:10:09.000 That was a segue into Monday.

00:10:12.000 By the way, and of course, a stunning act of bravery.

00:10:14.000 Stunning, beautiful act of bravery.

00:10:17.000 Che Flores has come out as the first ever NBA non-binary.

00:10:24.000 Trans non-binary is the term they use.

00:10:26.000 Referee.

00:10:27.000 And by the way, before we move on with this, we actually have a video of the referee in action.

00:10:30.000 Just off limits.

00:10:44.000 That's off-limits.

00:10:45.000 You know where your limits are.

00:10:48.000 And I'm not talking about my amazing podcast on Tuesday.

00:10:51.000 Hit the like button if you don't think it's quite fully stunning and brave.

00:10:55.000 Because we're dealing with nuance here.

00:10:59.000 Here's a decision to come out.

00:11:00.000 We're going to get to the speaker stuff that really doesn't matter.

00:11:05.000 On Z's decision to come out, Shea, formerly Sherry... It's not very creative, you just chop off the yard and the wall.

00:11:14.000 I mean, come on, that's going the other way.

00:11:16.000 Says, one piece I was missing for myself was that no one knew how I identified... It's Max Holloway?

00:11:24.000 Being misgendered, as she, her, always just felt like a little jab to the gut, I can now go through the world and even my job a lot more comfortably. 1.00

00:11:33.000 And this person came out, because this is how you know that people are super oppressed.

00:11:37.000 How many puff pieces, 3,700 word puff pieces have you read from GQ on referees in the NBA?

00:11:46.000 Formerly female referees. 0.85

00:11:48.000 Another article about a referee.

00:11:50.000 This is fascinating.

00:11:51.000 Yes, that's why I subscribe to Gentleman's Quarterly.

00:11:55.000 Although really, we just had a quarter gentleman.

00:11:57.000 I like that it's a little jab to the gut.

00:11:59.000 Not a jab to the gut, but just a little.

00:12:00.000 A little jab to the gut.

00:12:02.000 I mean, that hairstyle is a jab to my gut.

00:12:05.000 Please.

00:12:05.000 Come on now.

00:12:06.000 That's off limits.

00:12:07.000 If it was the previous person, that would just be a jab to the everything.

00:12:12.000 So a 3700 word puff piece in GQ, and I know this seems, but here's the thing, this is how they try to slowly, continually condition you, where you're just going, oh, yeah, sure, yeah, you're a female, you're a referee, yeah, yeah, of course, and referees are the real heroes, that's why we have write-ups on, you know, time, the language from the article.

00:12:28.000 Is confusing.

00:12:29.000 And this just shows you people can't even play by their own rules.

00:12:31.000 It says, but in September, ahead of the trip to Brooklyn for the NBA Referee's annual preseason meetings, Flores realized they could do things more on their terms this time.

00:12:39.000 In the past, they might have made a trip to the mall to get some unflashy polo shirts and khakis, professional clothes that, in their words, I'm never freaking going to wear again.

00:12:50.000 So this is the issue that we run into.

00:12:52.000 So this is trans, okay, but plural.

00:12:57.000 not binary transnode.

00:12:59.000 So, let's get started. So, this is the one that I'm going to be using. So, I'm going

00:13:06.000 to be using the one that I'm going to be using. So, I'm going to be using the one that I'm

00:13:13.000 going to be using. So, I'm going to be using the one that I'm going to be using. So, I'm

00:13:20.000 going to be using the one that I'm going to be using.

00:13:27.000 The French! The French! 0.97

00:13:32.000 You had the opportunity to change your name, change it to something that everybody can pronounce.

00:13:36.000 By the way, do you think what was going through her head is like, I'm one of only maybe a handful of female referees in the NBA, and they're like, ah, we've got eight female referees now. 1.00

00:13:44.000 She's like, dang it! 0.98

00:13:45.000 I need something else.

00:13:47.000 I'm the first non-binary trans referee.

00:13:49.000 But I also love how this person is a man, but also still making the catty women comments. 0.98

00:13:54.000 I'm never wearing unflashy polo shirts and khakis again.

00:13:58.000 You're a referee! 1.00

00:13:59.000 Shut up! 1.00

00:13:59.000 As a lesbian, which is I think really what's going on here. 1.00

00:14:03.000 I have nightmares about being an NBA referee. 0.98

00:14:06.000 Not just nightmares about being in prison, but I'm surrounded by black guys. 1.00

00:14:08.000 Now, that one man's nightmare is another man's fantasy.

00:14:14.000 You're going in the outer rims because it's not off-limits.

00:14:16.000 You see that?

00:14:19.000 This area is off-limits, guys.

00:14:20.000 And by the way, you guys are going to need to hit the YouTube button.

00:14:22.000 button just on this very last word we are going to play on my

00:14:24.000 phone.

00:14:41.000 We can never do here on YouTube.

00:14:43.000 We'll end with Rumble, we can, but you know, we'll take your chats and stuff.

00:14:46.000 Okay.

00:14:47.000 They hit it.

00:14:48.000 So, the House Speaker race.

00:14:49.000 Look, this is a genuine question.

00:14:50.000 Do you care?

00:14:51.000 And I say this because, first off, we try to not discuss things at length on the show

00:14:58.000 over which you can have no appreciable effect.

00:15:02.000 You're not voting on this, and I know what this process looks like, to be clear.

00:15:06.000 It is a bunch of phone calls, favors, quid pro quo, and this is why you end up with speakers.

00:15:11.000 Most of the time, even people who you like before they become a speaker, they end up being compromised.

00:15:16.000 And you say, oh man, I really was thinking we'd nail it with that one.

00:15:18.000 This isn't really something you can have a huge effect on, and so it kind of is, it's like sports betting.

00:15:24.000 It doesn't matter the combination of ringdings and pretzels that you eat at home.

00:15:27.000 You're not going to change it.

00:15:28.000 Your job is to elect Your representative, so that hopefully there's a better pool from which to draw.

00:15:33.000 At this point, this is the swamp, making a swampy decision, and hopefully you end up with one who's not as swampy as the rest.

00:15:40.000 Right, that's what you hope.

00:15:41.000 This is more of like a spectator sport right now, but because they're covering it, we just want to give you guys a couple of insights because they're trying to make it look like the Republican Party is in disarray when they're not wrong on this one.

00:15:49.000 Oh, and by the way, really quickly, before we talk about Jenna Ellis and before we talk about Cohen and we talk about Sidney Powell, Here's the thing, you need to understand, the plea system in our country needs to go away.

00:15:58.000 We need to change that system.

00:16:00.000 Just to be clear, we've spoken with a lot of these people, they absolutely 100% believed what they said back then, and now they're just trying to get out from an aggressive federal department of investigation.

00:16:11.000 That's what it is.

00:16:11.000 Well, the DOJ is coming after every single person.

00:16:13.000 The DOJ, I mean, DOJ, FBI, they're all involved. 0.95

00:16:15.000 So to say, oh, these people, yeah, they are turncoats, yes, a lot of these people are cowards, but I can tell you this, they didn't make it up. 0.96

00:16:21.000 They didn't make it up. 0.94

00:16:22.000 How do we know?

00:16:23.000 Because we were in communication with people back then, and by the way, a lot of what they discussed was correct.

00:16:28.000 A lot of the evidence that they wanted to present was correct. 0.99

00:16:31.000 This is them saving their ass. 0.99

00:16:33.000 That's all it is. 0.99

00:16:34.000 It's not really that big of a story.

00:16:35.000 It's a corrupt justice system.

00:16:36.000 It is not white-black.

00:16:38.000 It is about those who want to put a target on your back, and they will make it so.

00:16:41.000 Alright, so maybe we'll talk about it more tomorrow, but right now, looks like Representative Tom Emmer It would have been.

00:16:48.000 Would have been next as far as a Speaker of the House. 0.92

00:16:52.000 House Republicans have nominated Majority Whip Tom Emmer as the next Speaker of the House in a series of secret ballot votes.

00:17:00.000 This is the third time in as many weeks that Republicans have nominated a new Speaker, but so far none have been able to garner enough support to win the gavel.

00:17:09.000 So, you know, we've talked about this right now as far as the nominee is going to be Donald Trump, most likely.

00:17:14.000 And of course, the selective prosecution, it's a witch hunt right now, and I really would like to see other Republicans actually standing in the pocket and doing the right thing because they will come for you next.

00:17:22.000 That is not to say that he is without his flaws.

00:17:25.000 This is kind of an example.

00:17:27.000 Now, it's more so petty.

00:17:29.000 So let's go through the timeline.

00:17:30.000 Monday at 1.33 p.m.

00:17:33.000 Well, I think he's my biggest fan now because he called me yesterday and told me I'm his biggest fan, so I don't know about that.

00:17:41.000 I think he's my biggest fan now because he called me yesterday and told me I'm his biggest fan.

00:17:45.000 So I don't know about that.

00:17:47.000 We're looking at a lot of people and I'm sort of trying to stay out of that as much as possible.

00:17:52.000 But they'll get it straightened out.

00:17:54.000 Okay, so he's going to stay out of it.

00:17:55.000 Yeah.

00:17:56.000 He doesn't want to tip the scales.

00:17:56.000 Right.

00:17:57.000 This guy formerly wasn't his biggest fan.

00:17:58.000 That was right before the audio that we came in and now he called him yesterday and apparently he's his biggest fan.

00:18:02.000 Apparently he's his biggest fan.

00:18:03.000 There was a phone call.

00:18:03.000 Alright.

00:18:04.000 So then Tuesday morning, Emmer won some successive ballots behind closed doors.

00:18:07.000 But then Tuesday at 1pm, 1.11pm to be clear, and if you need a fact check me, 26 Republicans voted against Emmer in another closed door meeting.

00:18:17.000 And while his failed bid was sort of becoming public, that's when Donald Trump, who was going to stay out of it, posted on Truth Social.

00:18:25.000 He can't help himself.

00:18:26.000 Can't help himself.

00:18:28.000 He wakes up and he's like, hey, hey, hey.

00:18:30.000 100% right.

00:18:30.000 Do you think he just has elastics on his hand where he's like, look, just smack.

00:18:33.000 He's like, I don't need this elastic!

00:18:35.000 Boom! 0.99

00:18:36.000 I think things stew.

00:18:37.000 I think he just kind of like festers and he goes, I can't anymore.

00:18:40.000 He was saying, I want to stay out of it, but here's my biggest fan.

00:18:42.000 That was him saying, hey, you know what?

00:18:44.000 Maybe you should try and vie for my endorsement.

00:18:46.000 And when he maybe didn't, Donald Trump posted on Truth Social, I have many wonderful friends wanting to be Speaker of the House.

00:18:53.000 Righto, Tom Emmer!

00:18:54.000 What?

00:18:56.000 Who I do not know well is not one of them, folks.

00:19:00.000 He actually spent more time defending Ilhan Omar, can you believe it, than he did me, Trump.

00:19:08.000 I believe he's now learned his lesson because he is saying that he is pro-Trump all the way, but who can ever be sure?

00:19:16.000 Voting for a globalist rhino like Tom Emmer would be a tragic, tragic mistake.

00:19:20.000 That's what he said.

00:19:22.000 Apparently he knows him well enough to know he's been defending Ilhan Omar.

00:19:26.000 He's very subtle at least.

00:19:27.000 We know that.

00:19:29.000 He's rather poetic and metaphoric.

00:19:34.000 Then at 1.23 Florida representative Anna Paulina Luna wrote on Twitter, what did she write Gerald?

00:19:41.000 She was writing that she voted for Rep.

00:19:43.000 Donalds for Speaker followed by Johnson and that Emmer does not have the votes to be Speaker and so she would be unable to support him on the floor. 0.99

00:19:49.000 And then three hours later Emmer drops out of the Speaker's race.

00:19:51.000 Dunzo! 0.99

00:19:52.000 And of course the media did not hesitate to make the connection between Trump's post, Emmer's demise, this whole thing.

00:19:58.000 Just so you know, it doesn't matter who you are.

00:20:00.000 If you are someone who becomes culturally relevant, the media will make it about you.

00:20:03.000 I don't know that Donald Trump had a huge effect on this.

00:20:06.000 I do think that it's childish and you need to stay out.

00:20:08.000 But it's Trump-ish.

00:20:09.000 Or be in.

00:20:10.000 But it is pretty funny.

00:20:11.000 It's par for the course.

00:20:12.000 And it's worse than we realized because we actually have the exclusive.

00:20:16.000 Oh, yeah.

00:20:17.000 Sometimes we get these, you know, we have our in-camera journalists, our investigative journalists.

00:20:20.000 We have the exclusive voicemail that President Trump left for Emmer.

00:20:27.000 Hey, Emma, you lost big time.

00:20:29.000 You see what happens when you're not in the Trump trade?

00:20:31.000 You're on the tracks.

00:20:33.000 And I'm the conductor.

00:20:34.000 Choo-choo! 1.00

00:20:35.000 Can you hear the Trump trade?

00:20:36.000 Choo-choo! 1.00

00:20:37.000 People around the world say Trump trade.

00:20:40.000 Emma lost his time for the Trump trade. 0.80

00:20:44.000 I'm sure you're finding some things, Emma.

00:20:45.000 Don't take it personally. 0.99

00:20:47.000 You're probably very good at things like, frankly, sucking. 0.99

00:20:51.000 Because you do. 0.99

00:20:52.000 That's what a lot of people say.

00:20:53.000 I would never say that myself.

00:20:54.000 They all come to me.

00:20:55.000 They say, hey, you know that Emmer guy? 1.00

00:20:56.000 He's a real loser and he's sucking. 1.00

00:20:58.000 One time I walked in a room. 1.00

00:21:00.000 They say this.

00:21:01.000 I say, don't say that. 0.99

00:21:01.000 They say, I walked in a room and he was sucking a guy. 0.99

00:21:04.000 I say, that's horrible. 1.00

00:21:06.000 E is for everyone thinks you're a loser. 0.99

00:21:08.000 M is for bad. 1.00

00:21:09.000 Everyone thinks you're a loser. 0.96

00:21:11.000 E is for why I did that one already. 1.00

00:21:14.000 Loser. 0.99

00:21:15.000 R is you're right a loser. 1.00

00:21:18.000 Emmer, I think you get the message, frankly. 0.99

00:21:20.000 Maybe you're too dense. 1.00

00:21:21.000 You suck, Emmer. 1.00

00:21:22.000 You lose! 1.00

00:21:25.000 Sucking Emmer, they call. 1.00

00:21:28.000 Who leaves voicemails anymore? 0.99

00:21:29.000 I know, and that wasn't very presidential.

00:21:31.000 It wasn't.

00:21:32.000 You know what I mean?

00:21:32.000 No.

00:21:32.000 But I kind of like it.

00:21:33.000 I do too, but I just... I mean, if he sucks, like, literally, then... He does. 0.99

00:21:39.000 Well, you know... You know what?

00:21:40.000 Is there someone who you think would make a good speaker?

00:21:42.000 Someone even outside of Congress.

00:21:44.000 Someone just who you think would be a good speaker.

00:21:46.000 I guess that's about the only value you can add at this point.

00:21:49.000 Do you have a good teacher when you were in school?

00:21:51.000 Let's nominate them.

00:21:52.000 Yeah, let's nominate them.

00:21:53.000 They're the real heroes.

00:21:54.000 Please.

00:21:55.000 So, alright.

00:21:56.000 Want to go on to Gaza? 0.96

00:21:57.000 Yeah.

00:21:58.000 Okay.

00:22:00.000 Beautiful.

00:22:01.000 Because why not?

00:22:01.000 Just when you watch it, they're talking about this.

00:22:03.000 Oh, is it going to be this part? 0.98

00:22:04.000 It's so silly. 0.98

00:22:05.000 It's so silly. 0.98

00:22:06.000 There's so much that you can do to affect your day-to-day life.

00:22:09.000 When this show is done, check the references.

00:22:11.000 We make them available.

00:22:12.000 Move on with your life.

00:22:13.000 When people say you're living in a simu... People will try and say this right. 1.00

00:22:15.000 Like, I watched The Matrix once.

00:22:17.000 Are you living in a simulation?

00:22:19.000 Look, it's not about... You basically are.

00:22:21.000 Let me ask you this.

00:22:22.000 How many interactions do you have with a person on a screen each day versus how many interactions that are meaningful do you have with someone in real life every day?

00:22:30.000 You will be in front of the people who matter most to you, who will, on your deathbed, you will wish you spent more time with these people.

00:22:37.000 They're in a room and you were on your phone watching some quadruple amputee TikTok. 0.97

00:22:42.000 Just shut it off! 1.00

00:22:43.000 Who gives a shit? 1.00

00:22:45.000 After our show. 0.99

00:22:48.000 It used to be people spent their day, they went to bed watching Carson.

00:22:51.000 That's what we want this to be.

00:22:53.000 You watch the show, educate yourself, but the scrolling, that's the simulation you're living in.

00:22:58.000 You are living in a fake reality.

00:23:00.000 Yeah, that's true.

00:23:01.000 It's horrible.

00:23:02.000 Horrible.

00:23:03.000 That's what people say.

00:23:03.000 So addictive.

00:23:04.000 The problem is you've got a whole day and then you're like, what is this?

00:23:08.000 This woman's in a bikini on a skateboard. 1.00

00:23:10.000 I got to make sure she's safe.

00:23:11.000 And then you're like, you know, 40 minutes later, you're still struggling.

00:23:11.000 Yes.

00:23:14.000 Not me, because I have my jujitsu and my meditation.

00:23:17.000 Yes.

00:23:17.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:23:18.000 Sure you do.

00:23:18.000 You don't know.

00:23:19.000 I can't do the Transcendental Meditation.

00:23:21.000 I tried it once.

00:23:22.000 I tried it once, and it didn't work, because they were being too descriptive.

00:23:24.000 They're like, you picture a stairway.

00:23:26.000 And I was like, well, what kind of a... Like, and you picture a nice railing.

00:23:28.000 I'm like, you're not saying, is it wood?

00:23:30.000 Is it steel?

00:23:30.000 Is it some kind of an alloy?

00:23:31.000 Like, I just... I kept falling asleep.

00:23:33.000 Yeah.

00:23:34.000 Concentrate.

00:23:35.000 Focus on your breath.

00:23:35.000 I was like, I can't do it.

00:23:37.000 I know.

00:23:38.000 All right, let's go to Gaza.

00:23:38.000 Snoring.

00:23:40.000 Let's go to Gaza. 0.79

00:23:41.000 Speaking of kung fu... Dude, where's my fuel, they say.

00:23:44.000 Aww.

00:23:45.000 So if you've watched the mainstream media, you probably have heard, and this is the claim, that Israel is keeping Gazans from obtaining any kind of fuel, but they don't have any fuel.

00:23:55.000 You've heard this throughout the media, they just were talking about it on CNN.

00:23:58.000 They're shutting down hospitals because of it.

00:23:59.000 Yes.

00:24:03.000 The power is flickering and fading at hospitals in Gaza, as medical officials say generators are on their last drops of fuel.

00:24:12.000 The health system run by Hamas is in a state of collapse. 0.97

00:24:15.000 And you can just hit this as a collage, right?

00:24:17.000 The UN is reporting that fuel supplies are running out of hospitals.

00:24:20.000 There's no fuel being trucked in from aid convoys to Gaza.

00:24:23.000 Okay, here's the truth.

00:24:24.000 Hamas, actually, the people, by the way, who were elected by the folks of Palestine, by the way, the majority of Palestinians to this day have a favorable view of Hamas, which is unfortunate.

00:24:33.000 They have plenty of fuel.

00:24:36.000 Just so you know it's true, when we make all the references available, Reuters, and they really hate the Jews, Reuters even reported the story with this headline, Israel's military tells UN in Gaza, ask Hamas for fuel.

00:24:48.000 Meaning they're claiming that.

00:24:50.000 Well Reuters, isn't it your job to verify?

00:24:52.000 Aren't you fact checkers? 0.84

00:24:54.000 It's surprising that Reuters would even mention this, considering their history with And I don't, they hate the Jews.

00:25:01.000 So 2010, Reuters even, remember the Flotilla picture?

00:25:05.000 They edited out a knife being used by a Turkish activist against an Israeli soldier.

00:25:10.000 This is when the Flotilla was going on.

00:25:11.000 This was, I think it was 2000.

00:25:12.000 There was another conflict.

00:25:13.000 Bring that back up.

00:25:15.000 See that?

00:25:16.000 That knife right there?

00:25:17.000 That man is being held at knife point?

00:25:18.000 What you see is what is edited out in the Reuters headline in 2010.

00:25:21.000 What?

00:25:22.000 Just to give you an idea as to how biased it was.

00:25:24.000 Wow.

00:25:25.000 They cut it out so you don't see the knife.

00:25:27.000 That's kind of the important part of the picture.

00:25:30.000 It's amazing to me that somehow when you've got... We know that Hamas came in and killed entire families in their pajamas and much worse. 0.91

00:25:38.000 We have video of it because, oh yeah, they were videoing it and somehow we have to whitewash the fact that they're not that bad.

00:25:38.000 Right.

00:25:46.000 They would never use a knife or keep fuel from their cities.

00:25:48.000 That's 2010!

00:25:49.000 And today they're going, well, Israel claims.

00:25:52.000 Okay, but hold on a second.

00:25:53.000 Would there be some kind of a way to verify?

00:25:55.000 And I get it, people are saying that there's an incentive for misinformation on both sides.

00:25:59.000 That is true.

00:26:01.000 Some things can be verified.

00:26:02.000 Do you have reporters on the ground?

00:26:02.000 Yeah.

00:26:04.000 I don't know.

00:26:05.000 Isn't this the job of the media is to go, Hey, a hospital was bombed.

00:26:09.000 Wow.

00:26:10.000 Let's go look at it and see if we can report on it.

00:26:10.000 That's terrible.

00:26:12.000 So the world can be outraged and put pressure instead of just like, yeah, come on.

00:26:16.000 I said it.

00:26:16.000 We'll take their word for it.

00:26:17.000 Yeah.

00:26:18.000 And by the way, if there is a shortage of humanitarian aid, fuel, all these different things, why is Egypt keeping that from them?

00:26:25.000 I want to turn this a little bit, because it's not just Israel.

00:26:27.000 Why is Egypt not doing it?

00:26:29.000 Well, let me get to the truth.

00:26:29.000 So the truth is that the reason they said ask Hamas, the IDF, is because there are photographs, and I get these are from the IDF, but let me come back to this.

00:26:36.000 They show that Hamas is hoarding over 500,000 liters of fuel.

00:26:41.000 So they're stealing, by the way, humanitarian fuel.

00:26:45.000 I think we even have a clip from CNN.

00:26:47.000 Fuel, unfortunately, is essential for the Hamas military machine.

00:26:52.000 They need it for their rockets.

00:26:53.000 They need it for their underground terror network of tunnels.

00:26:56.000 And we understand that.

00:26:57.000 And we had a documented case last week where fuel, I think six tankers, CNN reported, went in through the Rafah crossing with Egypt.

00:27:05.000 And then that fuel, a large proportion of it, and it was said of course the fuel's going to generators in hospitals

00:27:11.000 to help save lives, and yet Hamas, at gunpoint, stole a large proportion of

00:27:15.000 that fuel, and we presume it was diverted to their military machines.

00:27:19.000 Now I get what some of you are saying.

00:27:21.000 IDF, you can't trust them.

00:27:22.000 Okay, but they put out a tweet showing aerial footage of the fuel reserves, okay?

00:27:25.000 And this is a tweet where it says, this is what more than half a million liters of diesel in Hamas's possession, in Hamas's possession, sorry, appears, ellipses, which continues to make its claim of its inability to supply hospitals, bakeries, and civilians with fuel.

00:27:38.000 Residents of Gaza do not make any demands on Israel.

00:27:42.000 You basically should ask Hamas, right? 0.98

00:27:44.000 And here's the thing.

00:27:45.000 This is not new.

00:27:46.000 Keep in mind, and we'll talk about this tomorrow, in Palestine, they have the abilities right now, internationally paid for, to at least double, very likely triple their water capacity.

00:27:56.000 Paid for by international governments and agreements.

00:27:59.000 By the way, desalinization plants, places to set up pipes.

00:28:02.000 But the last time they were given these supplies, they used the pipes to turn them into rockets and to bombs.

00:28:07.000 Hamas did that. 0.73

00:28:09.000 So to blame your enemy of war for not giving you water and fuel, which to me is absolutely insane?

00:28:18.000 We're going to discuss that tomorrow in depth.

00:28:20.000 That is a long-standing myth that people buy Hoekland.

00:28:22.000 It's not even close to true.

00:28:24.000 Right now, there would be no water issue.

00:28:27.000 There would be no water shortage for the people of Palestine, if not for Hamas. 1.00

00:28:31.000 And just to be clear, we've been in contact with some people at the IDF who've sent us They've offered to speak with us on record, but I want to be clear.

00:28:40.000 I would love to have someone from Hamas, from some Palestinian representative organization, an ambassador.

00:28:47.000 I would love to have them on immediately after a senior member of the IDF tomorrow, this week.

00:28:53.000 You can send in your information to LWCtips at Protonmail.com.

00:28:57.000 We'd love to have you on and provide the opportunity to correct the record.

00:29:00.000 Now, not what happens with Pierce Morgan, where they just go on there and they say, Oh, really?

00:29:03.000 Why do you believe Israel?

00:29:04.000 They lie! 0.96

00:29:06.000 They lie!

00:29:06.000 Well, tell us how it's a lie!

00:29:07.000 Give us some... Right now, if that footage is dishonest from the IDF, there are people out there who can dissect this, who can say it's AI.

00:29:14.000 They know, they can spot deep fakes before it reaches your screen.

00:29:18.000 No one's actually disputing the authenticity.

00:29:20.000 The only ambassadors who I have seen from the Palestinian people, representatives, Hamas,

00:29:25.000 basically, have just said, it's not true. Why do you believe the Jews? Well, hold on a 0.92

00:29:28.000 second. First off, we can put, why should we trust you and refute the evidence? I haven't

00:29:32.000 seen anyone do it. I've seen people say, we know that it was the Jews who bombed the hospital. Well, 1.00

00:29:36.000 there's been a ton of evidence provided from Al Jazeera, by the way. Yes, from the

00:29:40.000 international community, international intelligence, also crowdsource international

00:29:45.000 intelligence. I haven't seen anything to say that it was Israel.

00:29:50.000 The only people who make that argument are the people who are Team Hamas, Team Palestine, no matter what. 0.82

00:29:55.000 Send it to me.

00:29:55.000 Send me what we're missing.

00:29:56.000 What's being left out here, you know, they just found, there were two hostages taken,

00:30:00.000 a 12 year old autistic girl and her grandmother.

00:30:03.000 They were found dead, by the way.

00:30:05.000 They were murdered today.

00:30:07.000 So let's leave all those atrocities aside.

00:30:09.000 Why are we not talking about the fact that this operation that Hamas pulled off took

00:30:14.000 two years to plan?

00:30:16.000 It took two years to plan.

00:30:17.000 They had a network of phone communication in those tunnels.

00:30:21.000 So they have been at war with Israel actively for two years.

00:30:25.000 October 7th was just the final culmination and the execution of that.

00:30:30.000 That took crazy amounts of planning.

00:30:33.000 And their job was to come in and wreak as much havoc against the civilian population, which they did. 0.81

00:30:41.000 And they're reading it against their own civilians right now.

00:30:43.000 They would rather play victim in the public eye and go, look, we have no water. 0.73

00:30:47.000 Well, hold on a second.

00:30:48.000 What about that water?

00:30:49.000 You don't know.

00:30:50.000 Well, look, our people have no fuel.

00:30:51.000 Well, what about those 500,000 liters there? 0.99

00:30:53.000 The Jews lie! 1.00

00:30:55.000 They lie every day. 1.00

00:30:57.000 That's literally the equivalent of saying, well, you are one too. 1.00

00:30:59.000 The Jews lie! 1.00

00:31:01.000 I know Jews are, but what am I? 0.99

00:31:02.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:31:04.000 I am rubber, you are Jew. 1.00

00:31:07.000 That almost works.

00:31:09.000 I wanted to touch on that because that's their playbook, right?

00:31:11.000 So it's not just what they're saying, it's what they're physically doing.

00:31:14.000 Hamas would rather have hospitals run out of fuel so that they could have a photo op and they could have a story run in the media than actually take care of their own citizens. 0.88

00:31:23.000 We know this.

00:31:23.000 They've used kids as human shields.

00:31:25.000 Of course.

00:31:25.000 Yeah.

00:31:25.000 Playgrounds and schools as places to launch rockets from next to mosques and churches

00:31:29.000 Yeah, they absolutely 100% do this and then they did finally thank goodness Egypt allowed three convoys into 0.93

00:31:36.000 Gaza for aid I don't know how much of that aid is actually going to make

00:31:39.000 it to the people because right now Hamas just wants the world 0.89

00:31:42.000 To think they're being starved. They have no water and they have no fuel. So the hospitals are having to run it

00:31:46.000 They are military. They're doing it to their population Look I it's not lost on me that if you're born right in

00:31:54.000 Gaza and you you're raised with this You're going you're going to hate the Jews because 0.98

00:31:58.000 everything is blamed on the I am I understand it, and I understand that it's not the fault of those children.

00:32:02.000 I get that.

00:32:03.000 I understand that those conditions are horrible.

00:32:04.000 I understand that.

00:32:06.000 But let me ask you this.

00:32:07.000 Do you honestly think that in a time of war, it's the job of your military to provide aid and comforts to your opponent?

00:32:18.000 Let's just be real.

00:32:19.000 Do you know what war is?

00:32:20.000 Even if you absolutely hate Israel, like, fine!

00:32:24.000 Why is it incumbent upon them to provide water?

00:32:26.000 And to provide gasoline?

00:32:29.000 Seriously.

00:32:30.000 War is meant to be as unpleasant.

00:32:32.000 It's like prison.

00:32:32.000 It should be as unpleasant as humanly possible.

00:32:35.000 You're meant to be defeated.

00:32:36.000 In prison, you're meant to be punished.

00:32:37.000 I'm not saying it's a good thing.

00:32:39.000 I'm not saying that Israel isn't hard.

00:32:41.000 Absolutely just rougher than sometimes maybe you might think they need to be.

00:32:44.000 But it is war.

00:32:45.000 I don't know.

00:32:46.000 Maybe that's me, Mr. Traditional.

00:32:48.000 I don't understand why you would go to war with someone and not try and absolutely decimate them.

00:32:52.000 I also think that people are underestimating the fact that if you really got Palestinians alone, Individually.

00:32:58.000 I bet you'd find a lot of them saying, I'd love to get rid of Hamas. 0.86

00:33:02.000 I'd love to.

00:33:02.000 Because people who are defending Hamas should have to live under Hamas.

00:33:07.000 I wonder what that's like when you're the average Palestinian just trying to get your kids to school.

00:33:12.000 That's got to be not so much of a picnic because they control literally everything and they steal everything and they'll give you what they'll give you. 0.68

00:33:21.000 This is what evil people do, right?

00:33:24.000 We have this Board here, where you see Andrew Breitbart, he talked about Olinsky.

00:33:28.000 So Olinsky 101, it's accuse the other side of that exactly which it is that you're doing.

00:33:34.000 And that's what they do.

00:33:35.000 They go, look, look, look, they're bombing us.

00:33:37.000 No, no, you're bombing hospitals.

00:33:38.000 Look, they killed civilians.

00:33:39.000 No, you targeted civilians.

00:33:40.000 It's the Amber Heard defense.

00:33:41.000 Look, I was abused.

00:33:42.000 No, you were physically abusive.

00:33:44.000 It's the feminist defense. 1.00

00:33:45.000 Oh my gosh, I can't believe, look at how unfair.

00:33:48.000 No, no, hold on a second.

00:33:48.000 You're using a system that is unfair and you are abusing men.

00:33:51.000 This is what we see all the time.

00:33:53.000 We see it all the time, by the way, with Um, child abuse right now is a trans issue, right? 1.00

00:33:57.000 You have these trans activists who say, hey, we want to put a kid on puberty blockers and give them access to sex changes, and the parents who say, no, they say, you're child abusers!

00:34:04.000 Take the children away! 0.99

00:34:05.000 No, no, no, you're abusing children. 0.99

00:34:06.000 No, no, Amber Heard, you abused Johnny Depp.

00:34:08.000 No, no, no, Hamas, you are the ones violating your own human rights. 0.87

00:34:11.000 So, they blame you of doing exactly what it is that they do.

00:34:14.000 Do not underestimate the art of projection from these people.

00:34:17.000 Evil people rarely come out and just say, yeah!

00:34:20.000 I'm starving my own people.

00:34:22.000 I'm gonna make sure that they don't have water because I want a photo op. 0.99

00:34:24.000 Amber Heard didn't come out and say, yeah, I threw a bottle at Johnny Depp and broke his finger and took a shit in his bed. 0.97

00:34:30.000 No, they don't say, yeah, you know what, we don't care about the long-term ramifications of your child undergoing hormone replacement therapy or having a sex change where the suicide rate, attempted suicide rate, actually gets worse after this. 0.98

00:34:40.000 It's at least 42%.

00:34:42.000 You know what?

00:34:42.000 We're doing it for a political agenda, and we're going to try and take your kids away.

00:34:45.000 No, they say, if you don't go on board with us, it's child abuse.

00:34:48.000 It is projection.

00:34:49.000 It is gaslighting.

00:34:51.000 It's what they do.

00:34:52.000 Hamas's logo should be, should literally be, instead of a hang glider, should be a lifeless Palestinian child being pulled from rubble. 0.89

00:35:02.000 Because that's what Hamas wants. 0.93

00:35:04.000 That is the actual photo op that they use to Put out there in the world and that's how they get their their advantage.

00:35:11.000 That's literally what they would rather.

00:35:12.000 It's a death cult.

00:35:12.000 It's a death.

00:35:13.000 They don't value human life.

00:35:14.000 No.

00:35:14.000 All right.

00:35:16.000 Speaking of cult, let's go to the cult of property taxes.

00:35:19.000 Nice segue.

00:35:20.000 By the way, if you want to have a tip.

00:35:24.000 Lifeless children to taxes.

00:35:26.000 Yeah.

00:35:27.000 Well, you know, it's death and taxes, baby.

00:35:29.000 You know, my grass died in the recent drought.

00:35:31.000 It did.

00:35:32.000 So if If you want to discuss an issue like property taxes, okay, I get that it's boring for a lot of people, but guess what?

00:35:41.000 It really is kind of long-term theft.

00:35:43.000 You don't actually get to own anything.

00:35:44.000 Ever.

00:35:45.000 And that's compounded by the fact that you may not be able to actually own homes in the future, considering where the rates are these days and where our credit score is, just to give you an idea.

00:35:56.000 Let's go to property taxes.

00:35:57.000 There was something else I was going to say, but you know what?

00:35:58.000 I was distracted by Jenna Ellis.

00:36:00.000 Do they have her on an old Acer laptop webcam?

00:36:04.000 Can't CNN get something?

00:36:05.000 Can you bring it up full screen?

00:36:07.000 Look at this.

00:36:07.000 And these people, they want to act as though, oh, no, no, no, we can't have people online.

00:36:12.000 They're not legitimate news outlets.

00:36:15.000 These are tax dollar cameras.

00:36:16.000 These are tax dollar cameras.

00:36:17.000 Terrible lighting.

00:36:18.000 Oh, God.

00:36:19.000 I mean, you can't even see her.

00:36:20.000 She looks like Casper.

00:36:20.000 I know.

00:36:21.000 I know.

00:36:22.000 They cost $20,000 each.

00:36:24.000 God.

00:36:26.000 I just got distracted by you complaining about your grass dying.

00:36:29.000 How do you think Gaza feels without all that water?

00:36:31.000 Well, you know what?

00:36:33.000 It's far away, so I don't think of it.

00:36:34.000 Oh, all right.

00:36:35.000 Sorry.

00:36:37.000 I like to create some perspective.

00:36:38.000 Yeah, perspective, because nothing's off-limits with Brian.

00:36:41.000 Certainly not on Tuesdays.

00:36:45.000 Home ownership here is a big deal for Americans.

00:36:48.000 It's part of the American Dream.

00:36:49.000 That's what a lot of people talk about.

00:36:50.000 I don't think that the American Dream is dead.

00:36:51.000 I think people have shifted their priorities and their values, to be clear.

00:36:55.000 You know what I would love to do?

00:36:57.000 Maybe we could put a segment together with a Gen Z person, working often from home, right, 1.00

00:37:03.000 flex work, and have them work in a factory or on the lines like a boomer did, who did

00:37:09.000 get, by the way, full benefits in pension, and have that person swap with a Gen Z person. 0.54

00:37:13.000 I bet you they would both say, hey, I would rather take my current job and position.

00:37:17.000 But again, I think a lot of people who bitch about the American dream going away, you're

00:37:20.000 not working in a foundry for 30-something years and getting a pension in basically a

00:37:27.000 a way that allows you to live in a 1,400 square foot home and get two weeks of vacation.

00:37:30.000 So I do get it that the deck is stacked.

00:37:34.000 The cards are stacked against you.

00:37:35.000 I understand that right now as far as the wealth at the top and these giant corporations who are taking a bigger and bigger piece of the pie without baking new pies, unlike medium-sized businesses used to.

00:37:48.000 It's not a culture of free enterprise.

00:37:49.000 It's a culture of CEOs giving themselves bonuses at the taxpayer expense.

00:37:54.000 That's not lost on me.

00:37:55.000 All right.

00:37:56.000 That being said, if you believe that the American Dream is dead, you're probably looking in the wrong places.

00:38:01.000 There are ways to make it work.

00:38:03.000 That being said, homeownership is a huge component of that.

00:38:06.000 There is a problem with that, and it's property taxes.

00:38:09.000 It makes it feel or seem or on paper act And legally, be defined, I would argue, much more like renting.

00:38:19.000 So, it's so bad in places like Texas, by the way, you'd think a very free state, that some people now are finally stepping up trying to fix it.

00:38:26.000 Texans want to own their own property, not win it from government.

00:38:32.000 We must provide that by eliminating property taxes in Texas.

00:38:36.000 Okay.

00:38:37.000 And he's a wheelchair guy.

00:38:39.000 He's getting there.

00:38:40.000 So, here's the thing.

00:38:41.000 That's good to hear.

00:38:43.000 Unfortunately, if you don't pay your property taxes now, You don't own your property anymore.

00:38:47.000 Well, they can come and take it from you.

00:38:48.000 Yeah, they come and take it from you.

00:38:49.000 Literally.

00:38:49.000 At gunpoint.

00:38:50.000 You could have paid for the house.

00:38:51.000 Yes.

00:38:52.000 Over 30 years.

00:38:53.000 Let's make no mistake.

00:38:53.000 Taxes are, they take your money, and if you don't give it to them, people with guns take you to jail.

00:38:58.000 Yeah.

00:38:59.000 Just to be clear.

00:39:00.000 And those people with guns who will take you to jail for not paying something that you already own, many of those people believe that you should not have the right to own guns.

00:39:08.000 Now I'm not saying that you take out an AR-15 if someone tries to collect property taxes or the HOA shows up.

00:39:16.000 Don't misinterpret it.

00:39:17.000 Those are worse.

00:39:19.000 They're often a local tax, property taxes, and they do vary a lot depending on location.

00:39:22.000 So let me give you a couple of quick numbers.

00:39:24.000 Average property tax in America is about $3,800.

00:39:25.000 That's low.

00:39:28.000 Lowest average tax bill is Alabama, $882.

00:39:31.000 Highest average tax bill, New York State, $12,000.

00:39:33.000 These are averages that I'm giving you.

00:39:36.000 Now let me ask you this.

00:39:37.000 Before I move on, what do you think property taxes pay for?

00:39:41.000 Because I'm willing to bet that a lot of people will say, hey, things like roads, police department, maybe fire department, you know, things that you would think are legitimate roles of governments that are, you know, non-rivalrous, right?

00:39:53.000 These are terms that people would use like, okay, there's no incentive necessarily for private enterprise to get in, there's no way to necessarily make more money.

00:40:00.000 I would argue that's not necessarily true with things like roads, but okay.

00:40:03.000 So that's probably what you believe.

00:40:04.000 Let me go through the claims versus the truth with property tax.

00:40:07.000 Here's a claim.

00:40:10.000 They tell you that property taxes are necessary for funding social programs.

00:40:15.000 Okay, here's the truth.

00:40:17.000 The lion's share of your property taxes go to schools.

00:40:20.000 Now, I know you're thinking, hey, that must be a good thing, right?

00:40:23.000 The average is 40% across the country, okay?

00:40:26.000 The high is 89% of property taxes going to schools.

00:40:30.000 Alright, so you might say, but that's a good thing, right?

00:40:31.000 We need public schools.

00:40:33.000 It's the apple of my eye.

00:40:35.000 The crown jewel of the United States.

00:40:35.000 Yeah.

00:40:37.000 But what if I don't have kids and I don't want to pay for school?

00:40:39.000 Well, you know what? 0.99

00:40:40.000 You're shit out of luck. 1.00

00:40:41.000 I have kids, I'm just, you know. 1.00

00:40:42.000 I know, I know.

00:40:43.000 They're not in school yet.

00:40:43.000 I know.

00:40:44.000 You have a wonderful beard.

00:40:44.000 You just don't want to pay for them.

00:40:48.000 You might think, good, okay, so it's not really going to Rhodes, it's not really going to the police, it's not really going to the fire department.

00:40:55.000 Alright, but it's going to schools, that's a good thing.

00:40:56.000 Okay, so let's go to another claim.

00:40:58.000 The only reason you would think that's good is because you believe that schools need more money to improve education, or you believe that more money equals better public schools.

00:41:11.000 Here's the truth.

00:41:14.000 No.

00:41:16.000 And this is what, if nothing else, you need to disabuse people of this notion that money equals better schooling.

00:41:21.000 Because even people on the right, when they're running for office, they go, and we need to fund our schools, or you'll hear people say, money to Ukraine!

00:41:29.000 Those billions of dollars could be used, even if you took every single dollar that was spent, sent over to Ukraine, guess what?

00:41:35.000 It wouldn't help at all.

00:41:36.000 It would not improve the metrics in public schooling.

00:41:40.000 The way our schools are, it's actually incapable of improving.

00:41:43.000 With increased funding.

00:41:44.000 Public education is a public disaster to the tune of trillions of dollars over the last few decades.

00:41:50.000 This is a terrible way to spend money.

00:41:52.000 So your property tax is largely going to schools.

00:41:55.000 From 2000 to 2020, per-pupil spending in the United States went up 27%.

00:41:57.000 The average is $16,000 per-pupil.

00:41:58.000 in the United States went up 27%.

00:42:01.000 OK, the average is $16,000 per pupil.

00:42:04.000 We make all the references publicly available.

00:42:06.000 OK, so $16,000 per pupil is the average spending, meaning per person in the class.

00:42:11.000 Yeah.

00:42:11.000 Okay.

00:42:12.000 Went up 27%.

00:42:14.000 What do we have for that?

00:42:16.000 More money?

00:42:17.000 Results?

00:42:17.000 Better schools?

00:42:17.000 Nope.

00:42:18.000 Education performances by all observable, by everything quantifiable, plummeted.

00:42:23.000 We're worse off.

00:42:24.000 More money and we are worse off.

00:42:26.000 From 2013 to 2022, scores went down.

00:42:27.000 Fourth grade math scores went down 2%.

00:42:29.000 Reading scores down 2%.

00:42:35.000 In the 8th grade, math scores went down 5%.

00:42:36.000 So it got worse.

00:42:38.000 Reading scores went down 3%.

00:42:38.000 I don't even know, if it already went down in the 4th grade, how are you even reading in the 8th grade?

00:42:44.000 Why is that even relevant?

00:42:46.000 You should stay in 4th.

00:42:47.000 I didn't think you'd get the pass.

00:42:49.000 The SAT scores.

00:42:50.000 Think of how much money.

00:42:52.000 The lowest we've seen since 2005.

00:42:54.000 Wow.

00:42:57.000 The lowest we have seen since 2005.

00:42:58.000 And we always say look to, you know, try to look to an extreme example.

00:43:04.000 And sort of scale it back from that.

00:43:05.000 Okay, let's get a case study.

00:43:07.000 New York City.

00:43:09.000 Okay, so the median property tax in New York, $9,000.

00:43:11.000 Okay, $9,091, right?

00:43:14.000 That's the median.

00:43:14.000 It's the highest in the United States.

00:43:16.000 The per-pupil spending, remember I just gave you the average of $16,000?

00:43:18.000 It's $32,000.

00:43:18.000 Really close to $33,000 in New York.

00:43:20.000 Geez! 0.99

00:43:20.000 New York City. 0.99

00:43:21.000 Per-pupil.

00:43:21.000 Yes, highest in the United States.

00:43:22.000 to $33,000 in New York.

00:43:24.000 Geez.

00:43:25.000 New York City.

00:43:26.000 OK?

00:43:26.000 Per pupil.

00:43:27.000 Yes.

00:43:28.000 Highest in the United States.

00:43:29.000 The result?

00:43:31.000 Half of third through eighth grade students fail reading tests.

00:43:36.000 And think about this for a second.

00:43:38.000 Not only is reading comprehension going down, it's going down at a time when people have more access to literature than ever.

00:43:46.000 Yeah, but then there's TikTok, so it's hard to compete.

00:43:48.000 Exactly.

00:43:49.000 Never has a generation of people had more tools at their disposal and been less capable in the basic, fundamental skills of reading.

00:43:58.000 Now, this isn't just talking about, oh, Zoomers. 0.99

00:43:59.000 No, the schools are obviously failing them.

00:44:02.000 But so is our culture at large.

00:44:04.000 Half.

00:44:06.000 Half.

00:44:07.000 $32,000.

00:44:07.000 That means that if you're spending $32,000 on that child in New York City, and there's a 50% chance that that $32,000 has created an illiterate child.

00:44:20.000 That's unbelievable.

00:44:23.000 $32,000 per year.

00:44:24.000 So do the math.

00:44:24.000 Kindergarten, first, second, third.

00:44:26.000 You've got about $120,000, $130,000, depending on where you are.

00:44:27.000 And can't read.

00:44:32.000 Yeah.

00:44:33.000 For that much money?

00:44:35.000 That's bad.

00:44:35.000 It gets worse.

00:44:36.000 It gets worse?

00:44:37.000 Yeah, it does.

00:44:38.000 It does get worse.

00:44:39.000 I know what he's thinking.

00:44:39.000 Mr. Offalewicz is like, I knew I shouldn't have stayed home tonight!

00:44:43.000 Baltimore, okay, per-pupil spending there is $21,000.

00:44:47.000 Not as much as New York City, but, you know, it's not... Properties are less valuable.

00:44:51.000 Yeah, yeah, you know, I mean, they're, you know, Bob's big boy and a couple of crack houses. 0.68

00:44:56.000 Crack houses coming back, though.

00:44:57.000 They are coming back, but they don't pay a lot of property taxes.

00:44:59.000 That's true.

00:45:00.000 So it's the fourth highest rate in the United States, per-pupil spending.

00:45:04.000 What's the result?

00:45:04.000 Again, property taxes, most of the money goes to schools.

00:45:08.000 Let's go to the areas where they spend more money on schools.

00:45:12.000 40% of high schools did not have... This number is going to shock you.

00:45:15.000 Hold on, hold on.

00:45:16.000 A SINGLE student proficient in math.

00:45:21.000 40% of high schools in the Baltimore area did not have one single student proficient in math.

00:45:27.000 Just kidnap an Asian! 1.00

00:45:29.000 I was gonna say, get some Chinese students in there! 0.99

00:45:33.000 Pull that back up! 0.95

00:45:34.000 Is there no Chinatown in Baltimore?

00:45:36.000 None!

00:45:36.000 Zero!

00:45:37.000 Look at that, the article says it, and then to make sure at the very end, not one student.

00:45:42.000 To make sure that you understand, this is not hyperbole.

00:45:45.000 Not one student.

00:45:47.000 Give them more money!

00:45:49.000 Wow.

00:45:49.000 So we've given more money, we've given more money, we're throwing money at the problem.

00:45:53.000 More tutors.

00:45:53.000 And that comes from your property taxes.

00:45:55.000 So when you pay that check, I guess if you pay by check anymore it's probably on auto pay, but the point remains.

00:46:00.000 That's going to not one single student proficient in math.

00:46:04.000 30% of all Baltimore high school students, by the way, they have a graduation rate below 50%.

00:46:14.000 One of the high schools was 14%.

00:46:16.000 Now think about that.

00:46:18.000 You just talked about the money.

00:46:19.000 Let's say a kid goes through a few grades, you've now spent $90,000 on them, and they drop out anyway.

00:46:24.000 You thought Gaza was bad.

00:46:26.000 That's what we call a societal loss leader.

00:46:29.000 It's like college.

00:46:30.000 How is Baltimore a thing anymore?

00:46:35.000 What are we doing here?

00:46:35.000 I thought Detroit was the worst place.

00:46:38.000 It used to be the worst.

00:46:39.000 It did!

00:46:39.000 It used to be the worst, and by the way- Hold my beer, said Baltimore!

00:46:42.000 We could maybe pull from, I did a, we'll pull it later, I did a documentary, Detroit in Ruins.

00:46:46.000 This was in 2009 or 2010, where I talked about how children in Detroit high schools, and their per pupil spending back then was higher than the national average.

00:46:54.000 I think the national average was around $10,000.

00:46:56.000 I'm going by road, I think Detroit was $13,000.

00:46:57.000 That shows you how much the spending has increased.

00:46:59.000 It's over $14,000 now.

00:47:00.000 In other words, if there was enough money, Detroit schools will be doing well.

00:47:04.000 Yeah.

00:47:05.000 And a student who enters into high school in Detroit, freshman, has more chance of ending up in prison than graduating, right?

00:47:13.000 Now, I had that in the document.

00:47:14.000 I stand by it, completely.

00:47:16.000 I was fact-checked.

00:47:17.000 You know what they said?

00:47:18.000 No, and this was the Department of Education there in Michigan, or the teachers' unions, and then it was circulated through local, I think, Fox outlets or MLive.

00:47:25.000 They said, oh, that's actually not true.

00:47:27.000 The vast majority of Detroit seniors graduate high school.

00:47:31.000 I did not say seniors.

00:47:33.000 I said someone entering into high school has more of a chance, there's a higher likelihood that they end up in prison than graduating high school.

00:47:40.000 The fact that the teachers unions were involved in fact-checking me on that tells you that they don't actually want what's best for your kids.

00:47:44.000 Why would I give a rat's ass about the people who've already made it to senior year?

00:47:48.000 It's a career! 0.98

00:47:49.000 We're talking about a career average here.

00:47:52.000 That was back then.

00:47:54.000 Think about that.

00:47:56.000 14% graduation rate at a school in Baltimore.

00:48:00.000 30% have rates below 50%.

00:48:01.000 That is at over $20,000 per pupil.

00:48:06.000 We'll get into why.

00:48:08.000 We'll go back to... I don't want to go to the guy at work right now.

00:48:11.000 He's been trying to get in here.

00:48:13.000 So here's another truth that you need to know.

00:48:16.000 If more money worked, Here's how liberals manipulate, leftists manipulate you. 0.98

00:48:21.000 Generally speaking, you in your household, if you get more money, you spend it on things that you need.

00:48:26.000 Right?

00:48:26.000 You are allocating money to things that you need.

00:48:28.000 Right.

00:48:29.000 So, they're banking on you making that logical assumption of the government.

00:48:33.000 That's not true though.

00:48:34.000 That is not true.

00:48:35.000 When it's not your money, you don't spend it that way.

00:48:37.000 You don't allocate it that way.

00:48:39.000 You assume that more money means more resources to achieve the results that you want.

00:48:46.000 So you copy-paste that to government.

00:48:48.000 More money must mean they have more capabilities of creating better schools.

00:48:52.000 They do not.

00:48:53.000 Here's why.

00:48:57.000 From 2000 to 2019, the hiring of administrators is what they place a prayer.

00:49:04.000 It far, far outpaced any type of growth in student or teacher populations.

00:49:09.000 Wait, wait, wait.

00:49:10.000 Is this in high school?

00:49:11.000 Yes.

00:49:12.000 It's across all schools.

00:49:12.000 Administrators.

00:49:13.000 They hired more administrators.

00:49:15.000 Because they will say, we need more teachers per classroom.

00:49:17.000 But that's not what they're doing.

00:49:19.000 They're hiring more administrators.

00:49:20.000 So what do administrators do?

00:49:22.000 They fundraise?

00:49:23.000 Bureaucracy?

00:49:24.000 Yeah.

00:49:24.000 To give you an idea, as far as when we're taking schools collectively, and how many people are involved, students, teachers, administrators, students and teachers, they make up about 10%.

00:49:34.000 of the population. 10%. Administrative positions, 87%. So when people, so when you hear Barack Obama...

00:49:41.000 That's the growth. So just to be clear, student and teacher population grew by 10%?

00:49:46.000 Sorry, the growth, yes.

00:49:47.000 Administrative positions by almost 90%.

00:49:49.000 Grew by 87%.

00:49:49.000 Wow.

00:49:50.000 That's insane.

00:49:51.000 They have outpaced them by 87% to 10% their growth, respectively.

00:49:55.000 I don't mean that's the total.

00:49:56.000 You probably should have admonished me on that.

00:49:58.000 Well, later.

00:49:58.000 I should have been very clear.

00:50:00.000 That being said, 87% growth in administrators versus 10% growth in teachers and students.

00:50:05.000 So when you hear them say, you know, hey, if you remember a great teacher who changed your life, go and thank a teacher.

00:50:10.000 Sure.

00:50:11.000 Do you remember a great vice principal secretary?

00:50:16.000 Nope.

00:50:16.000 Who had an impact on your life?

00:50:18.000 I actually do.

00:50:19.000 I actually do.

00:50:19.000 There was one, her name was Mrs. Traynor.

00:50:21.000 She let me use the hole punch when I was supposed to be punished. 0.98

00:50:23.000 She let me use the hole punch and then I'd open it up and have a mask.

00:50:25.000 Well, one does.

00:50:26.000 But it didn't change my life.

00:50:28.000 No.

00:50:28.000 And it certainly wasn't worth $32,000 a year.

00:50:31.000 So then you have the administrator's salaries also outpaced teacher salaries.

00:50:35.000 The money is not going to teachers.

00:50:37.000 So in 2023, the average teacher salary was about $68,469.

00:50:42.000 The average K-12 administrator salary is $102,650.

00:50:44.000 And guys, can you let me know, is that annualized, or is that what they actually make?

00:50:49.000 That's what they actually make?

00:50:50.000 I believe that's what they actually make, which if you add in the three months off... If you add in the three months off, teachers aren't doing that badly.

00:50:57.000 That means it's about $85,000 a year, plus full bennies.

00:51:00.000 In Massachusetts, the average was $92,000.

00:51:05.000 That's for the year.

00:51:06.000 For a teacher?

00:51:06.000 For a teacher.

00:51:09.000 Bring that overlay up really quickly.

00:51:11.000 The one that we just did that had the salaries in there. 1.00

00:51:13.000 You can read up in there in the top on the left.

00:51:15.000 Mississippi was at like 48,000.

00:51:16.000 92,000 Massachusetts.

00:51:16.000 Wow.

00:51:20.000 I mean I don't mind that teachers are getting paid more, it's the administrators that are getting paid more than the people.

00:51:25.000 I mind that the teachers are getting paid more because of the stats we just quoted on how poor students are doing.

00:51:30.000 Yes, that's a good point.

00:51:31.000 Listen, you get less pay until they do better.

00:51:34.000 Your children are illiterate, so you get...

00:51:37.000 Nothing!

00:51:37.000 I know it's a bigger issue than just teachers.

00:51:40.000 Teachers might be fine, it might be the parents that suck. 0.98

00:51:43.000 Or the lack of parents. 0.98

00:51:44.000 That's a good point.

00:51:45.000 But you can't just come in and keep asking for more money, more money, more money, please.

00:51:48.000 I agree.

00:51:49.000 Well, it's across the board, though.

00:51:50.000 It's across the board that public schools don't do a good job. 1.00

00:51:53.000 They all suck. 0.98

00:51:54.000 So, an administrator, $102,000. 0.99

00:51:56.000 Of course, and the benefits, the kind of benefits that you can't possibly imagine unless you're either a public sector worker, or educator, or administrator.

00:52:03.000 Hero.

00:52:04.000 Hero.

00:52:04.000 Say it.

00:52:04.000 Hero.

00:52:05.000 Sorry.

00:52:05.000 True hero.

00:52:05.000 Say it right.

00:52:06.000 True hero.

00:52:07.000 And by the way, you should be able to work from home and Zoom because, you know, if you show up with some kids who have the sniffles, you're taking your life in your hands.

00:52:12.000 Yes!

00:52:14.000 Pick a different career.

00:52:15.000 The roles of the administrator have almost nothing to do with teaching your kids.

00:52:18.000 Again, this is all about property taxes.

00:52:20.000 79% of school districts.

00:52:25.000 We tried to take some bigger districts, they have more than 100,000 students.

00:52:27.000 They have a chief diversity officer.

00:52:31.000 There you go.

00:52:31.000 They have a what?

00:52:32.000 They have a chief diversity officer.

00:52:34.000 To make sure there's an equal number of... They're a bunch of useless people. 1.00

00:52:38.000 People of color in gym? 1.00

00:52:39.000 Yes, yes.

00:52:40.000 How would you affect...

00:52:42.000 Is it the teachers they're supposed to, and administrators to have diversity?

00:52:45.000 Well, I'm just taking this as an extreme example of absurdity because people bitch about DEI, right, and these kinds of corporate scores, but your taxpayer, your property taxes are paying for these absurd costs in schools, and then you have someone like a chief diversity officer, who by the way, let me give you an example, Columbus, Ohio, the city school, Chief diversity, $137,000 a year.

00:53:13.000 I'm getting whoever this person is on Off-Limits so I can push back.

00:53:18.000 How can children not learn if not for a woke environment?

00:53:22.000 That's how they flourish.

00:53:22.000 They need to be led by a chief like this.

00:53:26.000 I guess we don't have it.

00:53:27.000 Never mind.

00:53:28.000 Oh, thank you.

00:53:28.000 There it is.

00:53:29.000 Nothing like being late to the push.

00:53:31.000 They call our squats on fifth.

00:53:33.000 I was ready with the off-limits.

00:53:35.000 Squats on fist.

00:53:37.000 Did you say squats on fist?

00:53:39.000 Brian said off-limits.

00:53:41.000 Your property taxes are funding propaganda.

00:53:43.000 Propaganda concentration camps.

00:53:45.000 Let's be really clear.

00:53:47.000 What do you think happens when your kids are being taught by a bunch of teachers

00:53:51.000 who refuse to go into work because of COVID?

00:53:53.000 You know, right there, where they line up politically on that.

00:53:56.000 They bought everything hook, line, and sinker.

00:53:58.000 They supported the idea of vaccine mandates, of masking all your children, which has, by the way, created irreparable damage to children's social... being able to pick up on social cues, facial recognition.

00:54:08.000 We have our own internal facial recognition software.

00:54:11.000 They don't know how to interact with people.

00:54:12.000 They have suffered from the highest mental health mental illness that we've seen, and our addiction rates are

00:54:19.000 through the roof, drug abuse, alcohol abuse, kids don't know what to do when they get into the

00:54:22.000 workforce.

00:54:22.000 So these teachers supported that, all the lockdown.

00:54:24.000 Okay, then you have these entire unions and administrative officials supporting chief

00:54:28.000 diversity officer.

00:54:30.000 What kind of people do you think are spending that $32,000 a year of your taxpayer dollars,

00:54:36.000 your property taxes?

00:54:37.000 What kind of people do you think are handling that money? 0.96

00:54:40.000 And maybe that's why your children are illiterate.

00:54:42.000 Are you sure about those property taxes?

00:54:44.000 Yeah.

00:54:44.000 And by the way, they have no problem making sure that they have access to books that describe sexual acts to four-year-olds or five-year-olds.

00:54:53.000 Yeah, exactly. 0.91

00:54:54.000 Pornography, right?

00:54:55.000 They literally have pornography in the libraries.

00:54:57.000 They have to make sure that they go and spend the money on those types of things.

00:55:00.000 And making sure that you can't complain about it, because then they call you the counselor, which goes back to what you said, the Solinsky tactic.

00:55:06.000 We want you to not have these books in there.

00:55:08.000 No, no, no.

00:55:08.000 We're not trying to ban books.

00:55:09.000 We're trying to ban pornography. 1.00

00:55:11.000 Yeah, but Gerald, anal sex can be dangerous if not performed properly. 0.99

00:55:15.000 That's true. 0.99

00:55:16.000 You've got to manicure the target first.

00:55:17.000 You know, you've made a point that I can't argue with, but I feel like is irrelevant.

00:55:21.000 Yeah, well, as long as it may be irrelevant, but it's not off limits.

00:55:25.000 Yeah, it's not off limits.

00:55:26.000 Oh my god.

00:55:27.000 You don't know the world that they're living in.

00:55:29.000 Stop showing me that!

00:55:36.000 Now that you said Steve Jobs, it's ruined everything.

00:55:39.000 No, it's awesome.

00:55:40.000 It's fantastic.

00:55:40.000 It's not off limits.

00:55:42.000 I'm glad you dished the black turtleneck doily under your t-shirt today.

00:55:44.000 Well, I had to show my wrestler's neck.

00:55:49.000 Is that a Russian wrestler or a Brian Callen?

00:55:50.000 That's a baseball player's neck.

00:55:52.000 I don't know that.

00:55:53.000 And I don't mean, that's not the Jewish baseball player's neck.

00:55:58.000 That's the 1950s baseball player's neck.

00:55:59.000 Yes, exactly.

00:56:00.000 Where they're hitting 56 mile an hour fastball.

00:56:02.000 The kid is lean!

00:56:04.000 Not an ounce of fat on him!

00:56:06.000 And I tell you, he really likes, he has a pre-game ritual with a cigarette and one finger of scotch.

00:56:12.000 He says that he's sharper on the ball.

00:56:14.000 Now, let's review this again while we go through property taxes.

00:56:18.000 Okay, you never actually own anything because of property taxes.

00:56:21.000 In America, up to 89% of your property taxes go to fund schools.

00:56:25.000 They're spending more money than ever, largely on administrative positions.

00:56:28.000 Chief diversity officers, while your academic performance as it relates to your children is dropping dramatically, two-thirds of American children cannot read good.

00:56:40.000 And your tax money is being used to fund a completely failing system that is indoctrinating kids about white privilege, common core math, diversity, wokeness, while they tell them that American history is something that could be triggering, so we're not going to let them know about the founding fathers.

00:56:54.000 There you go.

00:56:55.000 There you go.

00:56:55.000 Are you starting to realize the scheme?

00:56:56.000 When people talk about a rigged game, property taxes is one of them.

00:56:59.000 And when I say we should defund the Federal Department of Education, you guys think that's extreme?

00:57:04.000 I'm starting to think that most state schools suck as well. 0.96

00:57:06.000 They absolutely do. 0.97

00:57:07.000 And you know, when you guys talk about this, I always try to... He just acted like he wasn't even talking.

00:57:11.000 He did.

00:57:11.000 Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:57:12.000 But I want you to hold that because I want you both to get it.

00:57:14.000 Yeah, I just got so worked up.

00:57:15.000 Because Gerald's going to give his on-limits comment.

00:57:18.000 Yeah, this is...

00:57:20.000 I'm going to start a new show that's called On Limits with a white background and me and a black face.

00:57:25.000 That's not going to happen.

00:57:27.000 Yeah, I can't do that.

00:57:29.000 So look, here's the solution.

00:57:30.000 Blow up the Federal Department of Education.

00:57:32.000 We've already talked about that, but we need to get rid of public- Careful!

00:57:35.000 We had a foresight.

00:57:36.000 Literally.

00:57:37.000 Yeah, my God.

00:57:38.000 Okay, guys, folks.

00:57:39.000 Crying out loud.

00:57:40.000 Metaphorically.

00:57:41.000 Dismember the Federal Department of Education?

00:57:44.000 I don't know.

00:57:45.000 No, don't physically do anything.

00:57:47.000 I'm just saying the organization itself needs to go away.

00:57:50.000 Can't say that either.

00:57:52.000 The problem that we have right now is that it's not a money issue.

00:57:55.000 We've thrown money at this problem for decades.

00:57:56.000 Literally trillions and trillions of dollars wasted on public schooling.

00:58:01.000 What we need to do is to tie parents to the success of their children again.

00:58:04.000 It is not the responsibility of the government to educate your children.

00:58:08.000 It is your responsibility to make sure they're prepared for life.

00:58:11.000 Period.

00:58:12.000 When you have communities like this that we talked about in Baltimore and New York that are struggling like this, those are communities typically that live in poverty and parents don't tend to pay much attention to their kids' schooling and this does not absolve teachers and administrators.

00:58:25.000 They are a huge part of the problem because they know And then they still ask for more money as though that will solve the problem.

00:58:32.000 So right now, every single, and there are problems with this, but talk through it.

00:58:36.000 Every single state now, you have to sell every bus, by the way, the bus that I rode to school that didn't have a seatbelt.

00:58:43.000 I know.

00:58:44.000 Kids.

00:58:44.000 I was always getting mixed messages.

00:58:46.000 They were saying buckle up.

00:58:47.000 I'm like, well, all I have is the safety bar of the seat in front of me.

00:58:52.000 That just shows you back in the 1990s that the money that you're spending on schools, that's how they innovate.

00:58:58.000 They're like, ah, Yeah!

00:58:59.000 Kids, buses, they could die in a car crash.

00:59:01.000 We typically protect them with like special seats and stuff in cars.

00:59:04.000 We don't have enough to take care of.

00:59:06.000 Getting curb-stomped on the bench in front of you is a learning experience.

00:59:09.000 Yeah, but lesbian Susie Q needs some more money and three more months off apparently, but seatbelts will get around to that, right? 1.00

00:59:15.000 We need to get rid of these things, sell the schools right now, over time start bringing in the private sector to actually, sorry, the public sector to actually start putting programs together so that you can have better education systems and we'd Stop funding these things altogether.

00:59:29.000 Accountability, right?

00:59:30.000 Get out of the education business.

00:59:31.000 And here's why I know it works, right?

00:59:34.000 Parents tend to pay a little bit of attention when you're in public school, right?

00:59:36.000 They're like, ah, you gotta get good grades on your report card. 0.70

00:59:39.000 The minute mom and dad start writing checks to a college and they're like, holy crap, what are you doing with this?

00:59:44.000 Accountability kicks in.

00:59:46.000 Because now you're physically writing the check.

00:59:48.000 It's not just property taxes and you're not really sure where it's going.

00:59:51.000 You're writing a check going, you're doing, you failed how many classes?

00:59:55.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.

00:59:55.000 You're going to community college.

00:59:57.000 It works when you make the parents responsible for what's going on with their children.

01:00:01.000 Guess what?

01:00:02.000 Your children.

01:00:04.000 And you can change it, by the way.

01:00:06.000 This is why your local elections matter.

01:00:08.000 You can have a direct impact on both your property taxes, where they go, and how your schools are being run.

01:00:14.000 That's something you can do.

01:00:15.000 You can't control. 0.99

01:00:17.000 Which asshats become speaker? 1.00

01:00:19.000 You really can't. 0.99

01:00:20.000 At this point, it's out of your hands.

01:00:21.000 What is in your hands is the people who are in your own backyard, the taxes that you pay, your property taxes, and holding their feet to the fire.

01:00:28.000 Yes, Mr. Offlements.

01:00:28.000 Well, I'm thinking about the fact that... I'm thinking about the fact... I like that.

01:00:32.000 Mr. Offlements is good.

01:00:33.000 I'm thinking about the fact that it's... When you have a party, a political party, that is aligned with this kind of insanity, from gender ideology to giving more money, indiscriminate money, to schools and stuff, How are you supposed to be in the middle?

01:00:49.000 How are you in any way supposed to say, I'm Democrat heavy Republican light?

01:00:53.000 That doesn't exist anymore, right?

01:00:55.000 You're either on the right, or you are far left and part of the insanity.

01:01:00.000 And that's that's kind of the the so when you say something I had a guest on my podcast off limits.

01:01:05.000 Who said that he had worked for Biden and said, I think Biden's a moderate.

01:01:09.000 The problem is he may be temperamentally a moderate or maybe historic.

01:01:13.000 If he's aligned with this kind of stuff, then he ain't a moderate.

01:01:16.000 He is on the far left and he is a disaster for this country.

01:01:20.000 And you only have one choice, which is to be, don't call me far right, call me traditional and sensible and on the side of truth, which would be, I don't know.

01:01:30.000 Conservative.

01:01:30.000 But you also, what was funny is you said gender indiology.

01:01:33.000 I said Indiology and I meant it because the Native Americans... Chicks with dicks! 1.00

01:01:40.000 I see a parody song. 0.99

01:01:41.000 I'm going to play it.

01:02:03.000 I'm going to play it.

01:02:24.000 And I would love to hear from you.

01:02:48.000 You can comment below, hit the like button, it helps with the algorithm.

01:02:50.000 We're going to go on to Mug Club here in a little bit.

01:02:52.000 Before we get to what you just said, which I agree with, but you know that's not going to happen.

01:02:57.000 I have had a call out to anyone, any actual representative, member of the Teachers Union, because their policy forbids them from supporting this, any member of the Democratic Party who opposes this policy, anyone who actually carries some weight as a legislative official or representative, I don't care if it's the ADF, whatever it is, or the ADL, or what's the other one, Southern Poverty Law Center, anyone who actually in an official capacity opposes School vouchers.

01:03:28.000 I've never heard an argument against it.

01:03:31.000 I've never expressed it to anyone who, once they've understood it, has been against it.

01:03:35.000 We did white and black and the gray issues, right?

01:03:39.000 Black and white and the gray issues with this one lady, black lady and her daughter. 0.88

01:03:43.000 Who immediately went to every single trope they could imagine.

01:03:46.000 White fragility. 0.99

01:03:47.000 Check your white privilege. 0.99

01:03:48.000 White guilt. 0.99

01:03:49.000 Colonialism. 0.96

01:03:50.000 The nuclear family is white supremacy. 0.84

01:03:53.000 And even they, when I said, well, what about school vouchers?

01:03:57.000 And I said, before we change anything else, before we go to dismembering the Department of Education, before we go to charter schools, just make it so that the average per-pupil spending is attached to the student.

01:04:10.000 And if you're willing to drive or use your bicycle, Or take a municipal bus.

01:04:15.000 You can take that number, that money, to any school you want.

01:04:19.000 That's the only, just that, as the first change.

01:04:22.000 Rather than money goes to the school, you go to the school.

01:04:24.000 That would incentivize schools. 1.00

01:04:24.000 Money attached to the student. 1.00

01:04:26.000 That's the easiest first switch.

01:04:28.000 I have never heard a single valid argument against it.

01:04:34.000 No one has even presented it, yet we don't do it in this country.

01:04:38.000 It's incredible.

01:04:38.000 As a matter of national policy, when we talk about common ground, why don't we change that tomorrow?

01:04:44.000 And do you know how I know it's not that hard to do?

01:04:47.000 That's effectively what happened where I was raised in Canada. 0.99

01:04:51.000 I didn't realize until I moved to the States, and Canada sucks! 0.90

01:04:55.000 But I went to a school that would have been outside of my school, a public school. 0.97

01:04:59.000 I went to Centennial Regional High School.

01:05:00.000 If I were in the States, I would have had to go to Chambly High.

01:05:02.000 That was the drug kid school.

01:05:04.000 They said, oh yeah, if you're willing to get on this bus, or if your parents are willing to drive you, you can go to any of these schools.

01:05:09.000 And guess what?

01:05:10.000 They were far better than the United States. 0.56

01:05:13.000 Still a far cry from private schools or charter schools.

01:05:15.000 It was so foreign to me when I came to the States and I said, wait a second, when I was looking at houses, what does that mean that they say, oh, that's the school in your district?

01:05:22.000 I go, you mean one of, they said, no, that's your school.

01:05:23.000 That's the school?

01:05:25.000 If I live here, I have to go to that?

01:05:27.000 You don't have any choice?

01:05:28.000 None.

01:05:29.000 That's a uniquely American, for the shining city on a hill, That is a uniquely American stain in our history and it is not being changed because of Special Interest Group today.

01:05:42.000 And by the way, what's the ProtonMail?

01:05:44.000 Maybe we can have them reach out just like the LWC Tips at ProtonMail.

01:05:49.000 One legislative official, or let's say a member of a think tank as it relates to education, who can lay out the case for why a school voucher program Would be a bad thing.

01:06:01.000 I've never heard it in my life.

01:06:04.000 I am open to having my mind changed.

01:06:06.000 Our school system as it exists right now, it doesn't work.

01:06:10.000 It's about as useless as, you know, we brought him in as an intern and now he's on retainer.

01:06:14.000 I know what the argument is. 0.64

01:06:15.000 He's on retainer.

01:06:16.000 You know, we wanted to get Charles Xavier and we got his brother Chet and he's out there right now.

01:06:22.000 We've had problems this morning.

01:06:22.000 Is he still there?

01:06:23.000 Yeah.

01:06:23.000 Okay.

01:06:24.000 All right.

01:06:25.000 Hey Tim, come here please.

01:06:26.000 The printer isn't printing.

01:06:30.000 It looks like it's got nothing to do with these cartridges being out of alignment.

01:06:34.000 and you probably gotta change them.

01:06:36.000 All of them. 0.94

01:06:38.000 Printer's f***ed. 0.98

01:06:46.000 All right. 0.98

01:06:48.000 Yeah, that was this morning.

01:06:50.000 I know.

01:06:52.000 That was powerful.

01:06:54.000 Yeah, this morning I know just as powerful um Um, the.

01:06:58.000 There's an argument.

01:06:59.000 I know what the left would say with school vouchers.

01:07:01.000 I know what they'd say.

01:07:02.000 They would say racist.

01:07:03.000 No, they would say no.

01:07:04.000 The problem with school vouchers is the people that can afford to get on a bus, a bicycle or in a car.

01:07:10.000 And go to that school, would go to those good schools, and those schools would compete for those dollars and get better, and then the kids that couldn't afford to, it's exactly the same argument they make for the lack of an ID for voting, or for example, why a lot of times they should have voting on a different day because people have to work, and they can't, etc, etc.

01:07:31.000 It doesn't hold water, but I understand the argument.

01:07:34.000 I wrote it down.

01:07:36.000 It ends public education.

01:07:39.000 That's what they will say, but here's the thing, it doesn't.

01:07:42.000 I'm not even talking, I'm saying before we get to any type of private, you're still spending the same amount.

01:07:47.000 Baltimore?

01:07:48.000 Sorry, New York City?

01:07:49.000 $32,000 per people.

01:07:50.000 You're still spending $32,000 per people.

01:07:52.000 I'm talking about before scaling back a dime, just make it so they have The choice, and I know, and yes, they'll say that, but guess what?

01:07:59.000 It still doesn't change the fact that they're no worse off!

01:08:05.000 Right now, if they do have a parent, or they do have the ability to get onto a bus ticket, or get on a tandem bicycle, guess what? 0.97

01:08:11.000 They still have to go to that shitty school! 0.93

01:08:13.000 So if you're saying that some people have such awful parents, have no bicycle, have no friends who will carpool with them, have no ability to ride a bus, and so, and so, okay, and so, and what happens? 0.94

01:08:23.000 Well, they'd end up at the exact same school where they're forced to go now!

01:08:27.000 Yeah, no, my point is it shines, what it would do is it would shine a light on really bad schools, and parents would not put up with it, and it would end the public education system.

01:08:37.000 They don't say it ends the public education system.

01:08:40.000 They would say it's not fair because it would pull money out of the public education system.

01:08:43.000 And you're right, it wouldn't.

01:08:44.000 It would just transfer it, and it would highlight, these guys are good, y'all are really bad.

01:08:49.000 And by the way, you know what else could happen?

01:08:50.000 The most likely scenario?

01:08:51.000 Even if that school where they're going right now... Okay, right now.

01:08:53.000 Let's just... All right, here.

01:08:54.000 Let me give you a visual aid.

01:08:55.000 All right.

01:08:56.000 All right.

01:08:57.000 Here's... You should get your whiteboard.

01:08:58.000 You guys, we should all run for office.

01:08:59.000 Just kidding.

01:09:00.000 Okay.

01:09:00.000 Here's a circle right now.

01:09:01.000 I don't know if you can see.

01:09:03.000 A circle. 1.00

01:09:03.000 You drew a penis. 1.00

01:09:04.000 Good circle. 1.00

01:09:05.000 Get it without a compass.

01:09:07.000 So there you go.

01:09:07.000 Right now, I live here so I have to go to this school.

01:09:11.000 Now we say, wait a second, school choice, voucher, meaning a voucher, meaning same money as spent.

01:09:16.000 We're not cutting any money.

01:09:17.000 Circle's a little bit bigger.

01:09:20.000 Now there's one, two, three, stop it.

01:09:22.000 Looks like a boob.

01:09:23.000 You are adults. 0.94

01:09:24.000 Sorry, sorry.

01:09:25.000 We are?

01:09:26.000 You're supposed to be.

01:09:27.000 Stop it, Mr. Out of Bounds.

01:09:28.000 Take it up with Mr. Off-Limits after the show.

01:09:31.000 So right now, you have to go to this school.

01:09:33.000 So we just expanded.

01:09:35.000 And by the way, you might have a school that's only five blocks away that you can't go to.

01:09:40.000 So right now, this school, when you're in this scenario, there's a little bit of nipple hair.

01:09:47.000 If you are in this scenario, there is no reason for that school to improve, right?

01:09:51.000 At the very least, we know they have not improved.

01:09:53.000 Test scores have gone down.

01:09:54.000 They've never gotten better.

01:09:55.000 Never gotten it right.

01:09:55.000 They've had enough time.

01:09:57.000 Let's put it that way.

01:09:57.000 Draw the other one.

01:09:59.000 Stop it.

01:09:59.000 We need another school.

01:10:00.000 I did do another school, they're just not big enough.

01:10:04.000 By the way, you might want to go to a doctor and get this checked out.

01:10:09.000 Now, let's say the person has to drive a little further.

01:10:12.000 Alright, they have to drive a little further.

01:10:13.000 The argument is, but if they don't have parents with the car, or if they don't have an ability to take a bus, or... Okay, so the assumption is this school will take all of this school's money.

01:10:22.000 Or do you think the more likely scenario is so that this school avoids being shut down for the first time?

01:10:29.000 In the history of this school, they might actually start trying to provide better schooling.

01:10:34.000 And even if it's not as good as school number 2, 3, or 4, guess what?

01:10:37.000 It'll be better than it is now.

01:10:38.000 There is no real-world scenario in which every school doesn't improve to some degree.

01:10:44.000 It would be impossible.

01:10:45.000 And you know what happens if that school shuts down, and the other schools are too?

01:10:48.000 There'll be another school.

01:10:50.000 Still taxpayer-funded, you and your property taxes, assuming that you still believe in them and that we can't have actually privatized school.

01:10:55.000 There is no scenario in which anything gets worse.

01:11:00.000 It can only improve.

01:11:02.000 Anyone out there, send in your representatives.

01:11:03.000 Send anyone you have who can make a cohesive argument that makes any sense.
