Louder with Crowder - I'M BACK! WITH A VENGEANCE... | Louder with Crowder

00:00:00.000 Remember you never ever stop, and you will always end so.

00:00:05.000 Every stop.

00:00:07.000 Just when you thought it was safe to go back on the YouTube, we didn't know.

00:00:13.000 And YouTube would just get his eyes rolled over white.

00:00:18.000 Was my mic not on?

00:00:20.000 Is it on now? 1.00

00:00:21.000 Oh, jeez, I was just saying stupid things. 0.98

00:00:22.000 So glad to be back with you, YouTube. 0.99

00:00:25.000 It's been a long time coming.

00:00:26.000 By long time, I mean one week.

00:00:28.000 So look, what would help is if you like, share the show, leave a comment, because obviously the algorithms act as though you don't exist after a week.

00:00:35.000 But I wanted to talk with you about something.

00:00:37.000 Before we start, and we have an intro here for you that you haven't seen in a long time.

00:00:43.000 We were streaming, just so you know.

00:00:45.000 If we're not here on YouTube and you don't see a notification, we're always on Rumble, right?

00:00:49.000 Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.

00:00:50.000 Eastern.

00:00:51.000 And we're always on Mug Club.

00:00:53.000 And I think we have the promo code.

00:00:54.000 It's free speech.

00:00:54.000 You can get $30 off.

00:00:56.000 We always recommend that you go there.

00:00:57.000 It's the easiest way, so you don't have to switch over to the, you know, the bonus show.

00:01:00.000 But here's something that's pretty interesting here, and I'm really happy to be able to discuss.

00:01:06.000 Once upon a time, there was no other game in town.

00:01:09.000 We're not quite there yet, just to let you know.

00:01:13.000 But let me show you some screen grabs here.

00:01:16.000 Before we started streaming to Rumble last week, a week ago, Rumble was not even in the top 10 apps on the App Store.

00:01:24.000 Okay.

00:01:24.000 When we streamed to Rumble that first Monday, thank you, because of you, we had 95,000 people watching.

00:01:30.000 I think we have a screen grab that someone wrote an article.

00:01:33.000 90-something thousand.

00:01:34.000 It was the highest number outside of YouTube for a stream like that.

00:01:37.000 And, of course, Andrew Tate got banned.

00:01:40.000 He came over midweek.

00:01:42.000 And now Rumble is the number one app in its category.

00:01:45.000 Or at least it was at the time that I checked it this morning.

00:01:49.000 Look, Rumble is nowhere near the size of YouTube, and I'm not saying that we're putting all of our eggs in that basket.

00:01:54.000 I would like to see any competitor out there do really well.

00:01:57.000 We've just seen the most amount of promise with Rumble.

00:02:00.000 I don't work for Rumble.

00:02:01.000 They've just been very hospitable to us and allowed us to stream so that when we get banned from YouTube, we have a place to go.

00:02:07.000 But, this is proof, you, for the first time, that it is possible for you to migrate and actually help determine the market If you go somewhere else off of YouTube.

00:02:21.000 95,000 people of you at any given second, and that's not including Mug Club, were watching somewhere other than you.

00:02:28.000 Nothing would make me happier than eventually to be able to never have to talk to you through YouTube ever again.

00:02:35.000 We didn't have that option, and we have to be here for a while longer, but this is a big step, and it is a step.

00:02:43.000 You are the one who, you hold the power in determining What amount of power big tech wields over you and elections.

00:02:51.000 And we're going to get into that here today.

00:02:53.000 Zuckerberg, Anjo Rogan, talking about the FBI, throttling the Hunter Biden laptop story.

00:02:57.000 And of course, we were banned, just to be clear, because of Carrie Lake discussing issues in the election in Arizona that she won. 0.99

00:03:05.000 But let me just say this, even if there is and there has never been any cheating whatsoever, of course, as we all know, in any election since the beginning of this country, we would never imply otherwise.

00:03:15.000 Most safe and secure ever.

00:03:17.000 It's not needed.

00:03:19.000 If they can throttle, if they can control the information, like shadow banning the Hunter Biden laptop story, which we now know occurred, and we now know that alone changed the outcome of the election.

00:03:32.000 I'll get into that number by number, state by state in today's show.

00:03:36.000 They don't even need to cheat because of the lobbyists and because of the power that only a handful of organizations wield.

00:03:45.000 And for the first time, you, Are making them sweat.

00:03:50.000 We're not there yet, but I am telling you, this is a big step, and it's one that I'm really, really happy to report.

00:03:58.000 This is a multiple.

00:04:00.000 Of any time we've ever streamed somewhere else, and I thank you for following us over, and if ever we get suspended here again, when we get suspended here again, I ask that you do the same, and I look forward to seeing you wherever it is that we land.

00:04:14.000 But the good news is, we can now land somewhere else.

00:04:17.000 Chin up, and it's time to fight like hell. 0.82

00:04:20.000 Figuratively, figuratively, we'll get into that too.

00:04:23.000 Here's the show.

00:04:24.000 I'm going to be doing a little bit of a show.

00:06:22.000 30 seconds!

00:06:23.000 I'll be with you!

00:06:24.000 All right, guys, this is it.

00:06:26.000 2020, move fast and avoid getting those community guidelines strikes.

00:06:29.000 I want regular content from all of you.

00:06:31.000 It's an election year, so use those algorithms.

00:06:33.000 If you're not sure if your content's borderline, err on the side of caution.

00:06:36.000 We don't need any more channels being banned.

00:06:39.000 Keep your content clean, gentlemen.

00:06:41.000 See you on YouTube!

00:06:43.000 Okay, let me show you, boys!

00:07:22.000 Captain!

00:07:28.000 They've got us surrounded.

00:07:29.000 I don't know how much more I can take.

00:07:30.000 Come on, don't think like that.

00:07:32.000 I promise you, after this, I'll buy everyone here a round of beer.

00:07:35.000 Okay?

00:07:35.000 Even Brandon.

00:07:36.000 Thank you, sir.

00:07:37.000 Has he got a salute?

00:07:38.000 He's got a salute.

00:07:39.000 That's not protocol.

00:07:45.000 Corporal Black, tell me you have some good news for us!

00:07:47.000 Right now, Captain!

00:07:48.000 There's hardly anybody left! 0.99

00:07:50.000 They took out Gathers, Trigger, you got ambushed, bitch, Pierrot's gone, and it gets worse! 0.99

00:07:54.000 It's not gonna get any worse! 1.00

00:07:55.000 It's just box videos!

00:07:57.000 It's all unboxings and makeup tutorials with training! 0.74

00:08:00.000 Can't forget!

00:08:03.000 You Palo Alto bastards! 1.00

00:08:05.000 Sir, we need to surrender! 1.00

00:08:06.000 Oh, come on! 0.99

00:08:06.000 We didn't come all this way just to give it up to some Silicon Valley sprite, right? 0.99

00:08:11.000 What's your name, private?

00:08:12.000 Given, sir.

00:08:13.000 He's not in our company, but he's still here!

00:08:15.000 That's a good sign! 0.99

00:08:16.000 It's an election year, dammit! 0.99

00:08:18.000 We created Mug Club exactly for this instant! 0.98

00:08:21.000 To guarantee a future free internet for all content creators, free from the legacy media gatekeepers!

00:08:27.000 That's why we're here!

00:08:28.000 Don't forget that.

00:08:29.000 I want you to walk the line.

00:08:30.000 Get out, move up, and use Mattie as cover. 1.00

00:08:33.000 3, 2, 1.

00:08:35.000 Go! 0.95

00:08:49.000 Do the Strange Animal Do the Strange Animal

00:08:55.000 Do the Strange Animal Do the Strange Animal

00:09:01.000 Do the Strange Animal That's what I know

00:09:07.000 Do the Strange Animal Do the Strange Animal

00:09:12.000 I got the ball Do the Strange Animal

00:09:17.000 Do the Strange Animal Do the Strange Animal

00:09:26.000 That's a satisfied sip because you can't keep a good man down, I guess.

00:09:31.000 We can't keep this guy down.

00:09:34.000 Whatever it is.

00:09:36.000 Glad to be back with you here on YouTube.

00:09:38.000 I know some of you are not thrilled that we are back here on YouTube.

00:09:41.000 And actually, that's my question of the day.

00:09:42.000 If you caught this show, but we were not on YouTube, where did you watch?

00:09:46.000 And comment below.

00:09:47.000 Was it Rumble?

00:09:48.000 Uh, where you're downloading on Apple, you know, Spotify, uh, Android, wherever it's available.

00:09:52.000 Sorry, hold on a second, I have to- I have a burp right on the outset of the show.

00:09:55.000 All the- the audio podcast?

00:09:56.000 Yeah.

00:09:56.000 That stuff.

00:09:57.000 Oh, my stars.

00:09:58.000 I love it!

00:09:59.000 That was- look, my mute button works, you still heard that burp.

00:10:02.000 Yeah, every mic caught it.

00:10:03.000 I apologize, I did not- I really tried to mute the mic.

00:10:07.000 Welcome back to YouTube.

00:10:08.000 Every mic caught it.

00:10:11.000 So we have a lot to get to today.

00:10:13.000 Our team here, by the way, infiltrated a drag show in Texas, and that's going to be coming up Thursday.

00:10:17.000 We have a teaser for you.

00:10:19.000 The CNN is freaking out now because Lindsey Graham said that if there's this investigation, prosecution of Donald Trump, that it could result in riots in the streets.

00:10:27.000 Of course, he didn't condone it, but they're trying to act as though it's a call to violence.

00:10:30.000 I think we're a little bit familiar with that.

00:10:33.000 And then not really telling is that the Facebook, the book of the faces, Worked with the FBI.

00:10:38.000 You know this.

00:10:39.000 Zuckerberg talked about this on Joe Rogan, to throttle the Hunter Biden story.

00:10:43.000 What you may not know is that that would have changed the face of the election, period.

00:10:47.000 There is no debate about it, according to Biden voters themselves.

00:10:52.000 So it doesn't matter if there's cheating that takes place, which of course we would never imply there is.

00:10:55.000 Never.

00:10:56.000 Never imply that.

00:10:56.000 Ever.

00:10:57.000 No.

00:10:57.000 If you control the flow of information on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, I guess YouTube, Google, and maybe TikTok, you can throw it in there.

00:11:06.000 You control the information there, you can control elections.

00:11:09.000 And boy is it good that there are going to be some alternatives.

00:11:12.000 But before we move on with anything else, Gerald A., how are you?

00:11:14.000 I'm doing well.

00:11:15.000 How are you?

00:11:15.000 Doing well.

00:11:15.000 You're wearing short sleeves.

00:11:16.000 Nothing like dressing up.

00:11:17.000 Thank you.

00:11:18.000 Yep.

00:11:19.000 Speaking of dressing up, you know him, you love him, the fastest man on his feet, and we are going to be on tour.

00:11:25.000 The big show coming up, lottowithcredit.com slash tour.

00:11:27.000 Get your tickets September 17th at the Smart Financial Center in Sugar Land.

00:11:32.000 Dave Landau, how are you?

00:11:33.000 Ahoy, good, how about you?

00:11:34.000 I'm doing well, thanks.

00:11:37.000 Phoenix is mostly sold out.

00:11:38.000 There's like a hundred tickets left, and I don't want to advertise it because there aren't more than like a couple seats that are, you know, you can sit with one person, but that's it.

00:11:46.000 We're looking at you, Houston.

00:11:47.000 Looking at you, lonely men.

00:11:49.000 Yes.

00:11:50.000 All you incels.

00:11:52.000 No dates.

00:11:53.000 You want to get yourself a lady, press your pants. 1.00

00:11:56.000 Perfume your bedsheets.

00:11:58.000 Wear short sleeves.

00:11:58.000 I decided to get a coat jacket.

00:11:59.000 You and your torso, friend.

00:12:01.000 Yes.

00:12:02.000 So, okay.

00:12:03.000 Before I move on, we have so much to get to here today, and it's weird because it's kind of, you would assume a slow news day, but it's a slow news day because the media really doesn't want to cover what has taken place, really, from Friday to now.

00:12:16.000 And some of it, I hate to use the term nuance, but there's some subtext that has been missed.

00:12:19.000 But before that, let's start with something a little bit on the nose.

00:12:24.000 Drew Barrymore, I don't know if you know this, people were complaining she was trending.

00:12:28.000 Did you know she's a racist? 1.00

00:12:29.000 Yes. 0.95

00:12:29.000 Really? 0.95

00:12:29.000 Why? 0.95

00:12:30.000 Because she likes enjoying rainfall.

00:12:34.000 Yeah.

00:12:35.000 You and I both know that you are capable of enjoying the rain and frolicking freely without

00:12:49.000 filming it and then posting it to TikTok.

00:12:52.000 Now, you've just cosigned, okay?

00:12:55.000 You've just cosigned at least 3 million 8.5 by 11 front and back people who just go out of their way To disrespect and dismiss the boundaries that black creators have set. 0.92

00:13:11.000 And now you're one of those people.

00:13:13.000 Created the rain?

00:13:14.000 So... I guess my question would be... Why?

00:13:24.000 Why is it so important to all of you to treat us like we don't matter?

00:13:34.000 I feel like you're reaching.

00:13:36.000 I would think so, too.

00:13:37.000 That being said, she also protested the Clearwater Revival.

00:13:41.000 Have you ever seen?

00:13:42.000 No!

00:13:42.000 I can't get the name of it.

00:13:43.000 Creighton's Clearwater Revival.

00:13:44.000 Yeah.

00:13:45.000 Have you ever seen...

00:13:46.000 No!

00:13:47.000 It's right...

00:13:48.000 No!

00:13:49.000 No!

00:13:50.000 Sh...

00:13:51.000 Sh...

00:13:51.000 Shh.

00:13:52.000 She's fun at parties. 0.92

00:13:54.000 You appropriated Janine's glasses from Ghostbusters?

00:13:57.000 Yes, also rosaries and hanging them from her glasses. 0.98

00:14:01.000 How could you?

00:14:02.000 You could also have said that to somebody and not recorded it and posted it to TikTok.

00:14:06.000 That's true, but what's even scarier is the response.

00:14:08.000 A lot of people agree. 1.00

00:14:09.000 Well, of course they did, because it's stupid. 1.00

00:14:11.000 Yes, that's a good point. 1.00

00:14:15.000 But Andrew Tate is a threat to democracy.

00:14:17.000 Do you have any idea what this lady would do if you gave her a scepter and made her queen for a day? 0.99

00:14:22.000 Do you have any idea what kind of racism, what kind of genocide would take place?

00:14:27.000 This broad is pissed off that Drew Barrymore was enjoying the rain. 1.00

00:14:31.000 Well, she's more pissed off that she filmed it and posted it. 1.00

00:14:34.000 I'm like, well, then what is TikTok for?

00:14:37.000 Drew Barrymore was a child star.

00:14:39.000 Let's just let her have that one. 1.00

00:14:41.000 She's had a very rough life.

00:14:42.000 And she's not dead yet.

00:14:43.000 That's great.

00:14:44.000 Just be grateful it's not falling coke!

00:14:47.000 Yeah, it's really... I mean, she's been decorated like a Harvey Weinstein ficus.

00:14:52.000 I mean, it's just, it is absolutely mind-numbing that... But people get mad about it.

00:14:58.000 And look, I will say this.

00:15:00.000 To give them one, it does seem entirely ridiculous on its face, but Rain, specifically in Dancing in the Rain, actually does 0.89

00:15:07.000 have, there is some history there steeped in white supremacy you may have missed. 0.81

00:15:12.000 I'm laughing at clouds so dark up above.

00:15:19.000 The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love.

00:15:25.000 I don't know how I missed that on first watch.

00:15:33.000 In plain sight.

00:15:34.000 It's true, yeah.

00:15:36.000 It's because it's soaked in gas. 0.89

00:15:38.000 I think he was trying to just throw us off the scent that he was gay. 0.69

00:15:41.000 Yeah, that's what it was.

00:15:44.000 That guy was?

00:15:44.000 I don't know, I assume.

00:15:45.000 No way.

00:15:46.000 Danny Kaye definitely wasn't trying to bow for the king.

00:15:50.000 I thought that was all man.

00:15:52.000 It's hard to tell!

00:15:54.000 Gosh, this is where we, when it's beyond parody, like you notice we don't even say anything during, everyone here, you could have heard a pin drop in the studio at that lady who was furious with Drew Barrymore because there's nothing to add to that.

00:16:07.000 I was trying to figure out why she was angry.

00:16:09.000 I still don't really know.

00:16:10.000 I don't know what boundaries were set by black creators like she said that we crossed.

00:16:15.000 And you find some write-ups if you search us because climate change disproportionately affects people in poverty and minorities and blah blah blah.

00:16:24.000 And rain is climate change now?

00:16:25.000 That's what they say.

00:16:26.000 That's what they were saying on the Twitter and TikTok.

00:16:28.000 They do know that that's what plants need to survive.

00:16:32.000 Us too, by the way.

00:16:32.000 It's humans.

00:16:33.000 It's really what the planet needs to survive.

00:16:36.000 It's got electrolytes.

00:16:37.000 Gatorade.

00:16:40.000 Alright, so this is something else before we move on to something that you're all familiar with.

00:16:44.000 Sunday, this is exclusive here, Anderson Distillery in Roanoke, Texas.

00:16:49.000 Roanoke.

00:16:50.000 Roanoke.

00:16:51.000 Roanoke? 0.71

00:16:52.000 Roanoke.

00:16:53.000 I don't care.

00:16:54.000 They're going down!

00:16:57.000 Okay.

00:16:57.000 Just like Gene Kelly.

00:16:58.000 Yeah.

00:16:59.000 They hosted what they called a family-friendly drag show with children, and we sent our team out there.

00:17:07.000 I don't want to reveal too much yet, but we were on the ground, both behind the scenes and reporting, and many of these people don't know that we were behind the scenes, but it's going to be released on Thursday.

00:17:18.000 Here's a sneak peek at the family-friendly drag show.

00:17:22.000 How are y'all doing?

00:17:23.000 Y'all doing alright?

00:17:27.000 Well, thank you for not cheating anyone.

00:17:31.000 Oh, whoa!

00:17:32.000 Hang on! 1.00

00:17:33.000 F*** that, I got him! 0.99

00:17:34.000 Well, thank you for not shooting anyone. 0.99

00:17:35.000 I appreciate it.

00:17:36.000 Every video that is happening right now is all including these people right here.

00:17:37.000 That was good!

00:17:48.000 That was good!

00:18:01.000 I'm dead. I'm dead. 0.97

00:18:03.000 He had the full face dress, but he had the little rainbow wrap.

00:18:06.000 He was like the Iron Geek. 0.99

00:18:08.000 Get the f*** out of here, b****. 1.00

00:18:10.000 I'm gonna pour ice on you. 1.00

00:18:12.000 I love that guy too with the face. He had the full face dress and he had the, but he

00:18:19.000 had a little rainbow wrap. He was like the, like the Iron Geek. I just like all of it.

00:18:24.000 Yeah. I, but those were not armed security guards that were hired to protect the event

00:18:30.000 No, it was Antifa Black Block with AR-15s. 0.76

00:18:34.000 Which is just funny because they had to buy a custom shoulder strap because they don't come in that wide.

00:18:38.000 Oh.

00:18:40.000 Just girthy.

00:18:42.000 You can escape them by walking at a slightly brisk pace.

00:18:47.000 It zigzagged very slow.

00:18:48.000 Yes, exactly.

00:18:51.000 This is happening all across the country, just so you know.

00:18:54.000 We just happened to go down to one.

00:18:56.000 This is not fringe.

00:18:58.000 This is something that is happening all across the country.

00:19:00.000 So when the left says, you're not allowed to say pedophiles or sexualization of children... I think Media Matters ran a clip where it said there's a disproportionate number of sex offenders in the transgender community. 0.80

00:19:12.000 Specifically, we were talking about the Drag Queen Story Hour.

00:19:15.000 Yeah, I stand by it.

00:19:17.000 They ran a story for us?

00:19:18.000 Yeah.

00:19:18.000 Good!

00:19:19.000 Of course I stand by it.

00:19:20.000 I think it should already be a sex offense to have six-year-olds putting dollar bills in your Long John panties. 1.00

00:19:29.000 Call me old-fashioned.

00:19:30.000 It should be at least frowned upon.

00:19:32.000 Yes.

00:19:33.000 You should at least feel some sort of shame.

00:19:36.000 What other shame?

00:19:36.000 When can we bring back shame?

00:19:37.000 No, can't do it.

00:19:39.000 Alright, so here's something.

00:19:42.000 Wanted to see if you guys had watched this and maybe if you missed some subtext, comment.

00:19:47.000 My question to you, you can comment below.

00:19:49.000 If the hair on the back of your neck stood up when you watched Zuckerberg on Joe Rogan, And what's funny is I remember one time when I was on with Joe talking about Zuckerberg at length, making fun of him for seeming robotic and like a sociopath.

00:20:03.000 And I think that Joe did a good job.

00:20:06.000 I would have liked to see him hold his feet to the fire a little bit more, but I understand that Joe wants to make people comfortable.

00:20:10.000 He does a good job with that.

00:20:12.000 Zuckerberg was on there, and have you watched this yet, Dave?

00:20:15.000 I watched part of it.

00:20:16.000 Yeah, I did watch.

00:20:21.000 It's very eerie.

00:20:23.000 It's scary, and it's scary when you understand the outcome.

00:20:26.000 So I want you to hear what he's saying.

00:20:27.000 It's a little bit of a long clip here, but you need to have the entire context.

00:20:30.000 You can go watch the whole thing on Spotify.

00:20:32.000 That's where Joe Rogan streams, another alternative.

00:20:35.000 Right now-ish.

00:20:37.000 Zuckerberg just plain out revealed that Facebook censored the Hunter Biden laptop story specifically because of someone who's been in the news quite a bit lately, the FBI.

00:20:51.000 Watch this.

00:20:52.000 How do you guys handle things when they're a big news item that's controversial?

00:20:58.000 Like, there was a lot of attention on Twitter during the election because of the Hunter Biden laptop story, the New York Post.

00:21:06.000 Yeah, so you guys censored that as well?

00:21:09.000 So we took a different path than Twitter.

00:21:12.000 Basically, the background here is the FBI, I think, basically came to us, some folks on our team, and was like, hey, just so you know, you should be on high alert.

00:21:22.000 Doesn't even realize what he just said.

00:21:27.000 We have it on notice that basically there's about to be some kind of dump of Uh, that's similar to that.

00:21:36.000 So just be vigilant.

00:21:37.000 So they fact-check for the FBI who fact-checks the FBI.

00:21:40.000 What Twitter did is they said, you can't share this at all.

00:21:43.000 Um, we didn't do that.

00:21:44.000 What we do is if something is reported to us as potentially, um, misinformation, important misinformation, we, we also have this third-party fact-checking program because we don't want to be deciding what's true and false.

00:21:58.000 And for the, I think it was Five or seven days when it was basically being determined whether it was false, the distribution on Facebook was decreased, but people were still allowed to share it.

00:22:13.000 So you could still share it, you could still consume it.

00:22:16.000 So when you say the distribution has decreased, how does that work?

00:22:20.000 Basically, the ranking in News Feed was a little bit less.

00:22:22.000 Oh, a little bit.

00:22:23.000 So fewer people saw it than would have otherwise.

00:22:25.000 By what percentage?

00:22:29.000 I don't know off the top of my head, but it's meaningful.

00:22:32.000 Yes, you do.

00:22:33.000 Yes, you do.

00:22:34.000 I'm not in the business of attributing motive or saying that someone is lying.

00:22:38.000 Yes, you do.

00:22:40.000 You do know off the top of your head.

00:22:42.000 And this is the problem.

00:22:43.000 Well, we have third-party fact-checking.

00:22:45.000 Hold on a second.

00:22:47.000 You just said the FBI is a fact-checker because they told you it was misinformation.

00:22:50.000 You used the word of the FBI.

00:22:51.000 Who fact-checks the FBI?

00:22:53.000 This is the problem with the raid going on right now.

00:22:56.000 Who holds the people accountable?

00:22:59.000 Whose job it is to hold everyone else accountable when they have now gone rogue?

00:23:04.000 You have to believe one of two things here.

00:23:06.000 Either the FBI is so absolutely inept that they couldn't be bothered to, ring ring Giuliani, where'd you get that laptop?

00:23:14.000 Oh, do you have the receipt from Geek Squad? 0.89

00:23:16.000 You do?

00:23:17.000 Let's go check it out. 0.96

00:23:18.000 You have to believe that they are so inept they aren't able to do what we did on this show.

00:23:22.000 Keep in mind the laptop was shown on this show for the first time to the public when Giuliani was on this show, the Hunter Biden laptop. 0.68

00:23:27.000 We confirmed it. 0.95

00:23:28.000 They're either so inept, or they're lying, and tried to affect the outcome of the election. 0.99

00:23:33.000 There is no door number three! 0.98

00:23:36.000 And we have a third party fact-checkers.

00:23:37.000 Okay, so the FBI is one of them.

00:23:39.000 Who else?

00:23:39.000 Southern Poverty Law Center?

00:23:41.000 The CDC?

00:23:42.000 The WHO?

00:23:43.000 With YouTube?

00:23:44.000 Who fact-checks the fact-checkers?

00:23:46.000 Especially now, when the CDC said, sorry, we were wrong about a lot.

00:23:51.000 But what's ridiculous is the language, just that he says, well, we made it shareable, just less so.

00:23:55.000 And it's like, well, why didn't you say we made it less shareable?

00:23:58.000 Wouldn't that sound way worse?

00:23:59.000 Because it's what you said.

00:24:00.000 Right.

00:24:01.000 I mean, the way that if you just move a couple words in his responses, it becomes way creepier than what he actually says.

00:24:08.000 And this is what they do.

00:24:09.000 See, okay, people talk about, for example, sometimes in the Bible, if you look at it, they talk about, in Revelations, like giant metal screaming birds, and now you go back and go, oh, maybe someone was trying to describe a plane.

00:24:20.000 How would you describe it if the word plane didn't exist?

00:24:23.000 For the longest time, the term that we used as conservatives, right, was shadow band.

00:24:27.000 There was no term, industry term.

00:24:29.000 We just know that there was code baked into your page, for example.

00:24:32.000 We've had legal tussles, hootenannies, I guess we can say, with Facebook.

00:24:37.000 Never lost a one when they were throttling our content on your pages.

00:24:40.000 It was verified, confirmed by Engadget or Gizmodo, released publicly.

00:24:46.000 So we use the term shadowbanning because there is no term at that point in time that exists.

00:24:50.000 What they do is they say, oh, you're a conspiracy.

00:24:52.000 There is no such thing as shadowbanning.

00:24:54.000 We have never used the term shadowbanning at Facebook.

00:24:57.000 Well, hold on a second.

00:24:57.000 We're just using it, you know, shorthand to say you throttle content so that it's less shareable and people can't see.

00:25:03.000 Oh, well, we do that.

00:25:04.000 We do that, yeah.

00:25:05.000 We didn't let it show up in the news feed.

00:25:06.000 And I love how at the end he was like, oh, it's meaningful.

00:25:09.000 Yeah.

00:25:09.000 Everything that shows up in the news feed is meaningful.

00:25:12.000 That's where people go to get updates on what's happening in society after they've scrolled through their page for a little bit and get bored.

00:25:18.000 Hey, Kevin Lane Gunnarsson, get that number for me, how many people are on Facebook and the number of people who consume their news from Facebook.

00:25:24.000 The numbers are shocking.

00:25:25.000 The increase was meaningful.

00:25:28.000 That's insane.

00:25:30.000 When you consider that's people's portal in a lot of countries as to where they get news.

00:25:35.000 And this is the important thing.

00:25:35.000 They try to gaslight you.

00:25:37.000 If you say shadowban, they go, that's not a thing. 0.97

00:25:39.000 These crazy conservative conspiracy theorists.

00:25:41.000 And then what happens is shadowban becomes a trigger word so that they throttle your content claiming that there's no shadowbanning.

00:25:47.000 To be completely clear, before you fact-check us now, the FBI did respond saying that they can only inform private entities of threats, not require them to take action.

00:25:57.000 Now that may be, but of course given what we've discussed before here, the political leanings of people at Meta, it used to be Facebook when this happened, it's 6.9 million to Democrats in 2020 compared to under 600,000 to Republicans.

00:26:09.000 And there are a lot of ways to hide the money as well.

00:26:11.000 But they overwhelmingly give to Democrats.

00:26:12.000 They overwhelmingly support Democrats.

00:26:14.000 And by the way, the shadow banning, how can all of the mistakes only go one way?

00:26:20.000 Hi, we're the FBI.

00:26:21.000 We're here to make a casual suggestion.

00:26:23.000 Yes!

00:26:23.000 That's how they typically operate.

00:26:25.000 That's a nice picture of your wife. 0.96

00:26:27.000 No.

00:26:28.000 Yeah.

00:26:29.000 You'd be ashamed if that happened in real life.

00:26:31.000 He'd be ashamed if something happened to him.

00:26:34.000 He goes to that Montessori school over there on Plainwood Boulevard, doesn't he?

00:26:39.000 Yes.

00:26:40.000 Beautiful strawberry blonde hair that he has.

00:26:42.000 Yes, looks like he's at lunch right now.

00:26:46.000 Don't worry, we won't send any of the CIA after him.

00:26:48.000 I know they love the kids, but...

00:26:49.000 Only if you check their hard drives.

00:26:51.000 The worst thing about this is that what he's...

00:26:53.000 Sorry, by the way, Pew Research shows about a third of Americans regularly get their news from Facebook.

00:26:58.000 A third of the country?

00:27:00.000 And it's even higher in other countries.

00:27:02.000 Yeah, absolutely. One of the worst things about this is that what he said was,

00:27:05.000 Oh, the FBI just warned us that there's misinformation coming from Russia.

00:27:09.000 Well then why did you flag this story?

00:27:12.000 Right.

00:27:12.000 What about this story?

00:27:13.000 Everyone knew this was real.

00:27:15.000 And by the way, they did the same thing with the Ashley Biden diary, just to be clear.

00:27:20.000 Right.

00:27:21.000 She was mal- According to Ashley Biden.

00:27:23.000 Let me just make sure.

00:27:24.000 According to Ashley Biden.

00:27:25.000 Her diary.

00:27:26.000 Her diary.

00:27:27.000 She was molested.

00:27:28.000 According to Ashley Biden, she was sexualized at a young age.

00:27:32.000 According to Ashley Biden, she showered with her dad beyond the point that was age appropriate.

00:27:37.000 Remember what they said?

00:27:38.000 This is a false story.

00:27:40.000 Then they said this must have been stolen.

00:27:41.000 Now they're prosecuting someone for selling it.

00:27:44.000 Turns out it wasn't actually stolen.

00:27:45.000 It was something that was left and was abandoned.

00:27:47.000 Yes.

00:27:47.000 Well, they're getting a prison sentence.

00:27:49.000 Right.

00:27:49.000 They're not prosecuting anymore.

00:27:50.000 Why would you get a prison sentence for a fake diary?

00:27:53.000 Remember?

00:27:53.000 That's what we heard.

00:27:54.000 Exactly.

00:27:54.000 But it's believe all women.

00:27:56.000 Right.

00:27:56.000 But Ashley Biden.

00:27:57.000 Yes.

00:27:58.000 Well, unless it's in writing.

00:27:59.000 Yes.

00:27:59.000 As well.

00:28:00.000 I believe it's a calligraphy term.

00:28:01.000 Yes.

00:28:02.000 Believe all women but Ashley. 1.00

00:28:04.000 And here's something else too.

00:28:04.000 The FBI says we can only inform them.

00:28:06.000 Well, here's one thing.

00:28:07.000 On YouTube, you have community guidelines.

00:28:09.000 Okay.

00:28:09.000 Then you have advertiser-friendly guidelines.

00:28:11.000 Then you have borderline content.

00:28:14.000 We don't know, you don't know, nobody knows who determines what is borderline content.

00:28:19.000 They just say, well, we have a panel, we have a group of different people who inform us who.

00:28:24.000 It's a rule that is broad, that is opaque, that isn't defined, and we have no idea who's enforcing it.

00:28:31.000 Could that be an example of the FBI saying, we just suggest that that is Borderline content.

00:28:37.000 This is the problem with 320, right?

00:28:40.000 This is the problem with the, or sorry, 230.

00:28:42.000 Yeah.

00:28:43.000 This is, I was getting 420 and section 230 confused.

00:28:46.000 Watch, I just said 420 and there are a bunch of people like, yeah!

00:28:48.000 That's the only thing that'll inspire them to comment.

00:28:50.000 You hit it, you said it.

00:28:50.000 Everything else, like, got a weed belt bucka!

00:28:54.000 And a hat!

00:28:55.000 And a shirt!

00:28:56.000 I don't have any weed though, I spent it all on this.

00:28:57.000 And not a job.

00:28:58.000 Yeah.

00:28:59.000 No, with section 230 is, If you're a platform and not a publisher, you need to let people know.

00:29:06.000 You can't be a platform and have the FBI telling you what you can and can't post.

00:29:10.000 Now, here's what's so scary about this.

00:29:12.000 There's never been any cheating in any election.

00:29:14.000 Elizabeth Warren, Amy Klobuchar, Jimmy Carter, Kamala Harris, Hillary Clinton.

00:29:21.000 They deserve to be locked up for their election conspiracies. 1.00

00:29:24.000 I cannot believe that they would want to sow mistrust in our institutions, those bitches. 1.00

00:29:31.000 According to... Yes. 1.00

00:29:33.000 According to the polling, though, let's get rid of the no cheating that never ever ever ever happened.

00:29:37.000 Right.

00:29:37.000 Carrie Lake, watch your mouth.

00:29:39.000 According to the polls, 17% of Biden voters said they would have changed their vote or not voted had they known about the Hunter Biden laptop story.

00:29:50.000 And Dave made a great point.

00:29:51.000 It's not just about the fact that he was smoking crack and sexting his niece.

00:29:54.000 It's about the fact that he was directly involving his dad in foreign business deals with governments who do not have Americans' best interest at heart.

00:30:00.000 That does matter.

00:30:01.000 I don't care what Sam Harris says. 1.00

00:30:03.000 He's stupid. 1.00

00:30:05.000 So, take this into account. 1.00

00:30:06.000 17%.

00:30:06.000 17% would have changed their vote.

00:30:07.000 17% would have changed their vote.

00:30:12.000 Biden voters.

00:30:13.000 Okay, let's change that electoral map. 0.79

00:30:16.000 Donald Trump would have won Arizona by 273,000 votes.

00:30:20.000 Georgia, 408,000 votes.

00:30:22.000 Nevada, 85,000 votes.

00:30:23.000 Michigan, over 300,000 votes.

00:30:25.000 New Hampshire, 12,000.

00:30:26.000 That's a low number because it's a small state no one cares about.

00:30:28.000 Pennsylvania, 507,000 votes.

00:30:30.000 Wisconsin, Donald Trump would have won.

00:30:33.000 Minnesota, Donald Trump would have won.

00:30:34.000 If you cut the number in half by the people who answered the poll saying they would have changed their vote, It still would have been a Ronald Reagan-like landslide through the Electoral College.

00:30:45.000 Just that one story!

00:30:47.000 Just that one story!

00:30:49.000 Well, we don't know, you know, our bad.

00:30:52.000 No, no, no, no.

00:30:52.000 No more your bad.

00:30:54.000 These organizations cannot, any libertarian who says they're a private company, they can do whatever they want.

00:30:58.000 Do you still believe that?

00:30:59.000 Do you still believe they're a private company when they are removing a story that has a direct effect on the election outcome based on the suggestion by the FBI?

00:31:10.000 This is not some private business doing what private business do.

00:31:13.000 No, and the interesting part to me is, you know, all the flack that Donald Trump has been given for maybe, you know, being soft on Russia, doing business deals with Russia, the two people that were implicated or two countries implicated in this laptop were Ukraine and China.

00:31:26.000 Yep.

00:31:26.000 We've been really, really soft on China, trying to take every step that we can to take away a lot of the provisions that Donald Trump put in place economically, a lot of the sanctions, not sanctions, sorry, the tariffs.

00:31:36.000 And we're sending over billions and billions and billions of dollars to where?

00:31:40.000 Ukraine.

00:31:41.000 I'm not saying anything, I'm just saying.

00:31:43.000 It's very weird to me right now that that's the claim, those are the two places, and those are the two places right now, and nobody's making that argument that I'm seeing at all.

00:31:52.000 Other than not liking their money going to Ukraine.

00:31:54.000 I think you following logic in a straight line is the wrong way to go.

00:31:57.000 It makes me feel like I'm starting a conspiracy on accident because it's like, oh well that makes sense.

00:32:02.000 Just A, B, and C is not the way to do it.

00:32:05.000 You've been spending too much time in the rain.

00:32:07.000 There's a Reddit thread for me somewhere. 0.99

00:32:09.000 Racist. 0.99

00:32:12.000 This is where we are, and they want to gaslight you into thinking that you're crazy. 0.99

00:32:16.000 You're not crazy.

00:32:17.000 And by the way, I don't think those Biden voters who said they would change their vote are crazy.

00:32:22.000 I think they're uninformed, and by God, it's really hard to be informed today.

00:32:26.000 We have more access to information than ever.

00:32:29.000 Think about that for a second.

00:32:31.000 When we were the age of some of the generations entering the workforce, when we were teenagers, we would have to go down to a library.

00:32:38.000 We'd have to take a book out.

00:32:39.000 You know, they used to have an encyclopedia, door-to-door salesmen.

00:32:42.000 Not anymore.

00:32:43.000 Nowadays, you can access all information at your fingertips.

00:32:46.000 However, it is more curated than ever before, and people are more misinformed than ever before.

00:32:54.000 voted for Biden. 17% of them said, oh my god, that would have changed how I viewed the world

00:32:54.000 Millions like the votes?

00:32:58.000 and how I would have voted. But these are just private entities. And that's why I ask

00:33:02.000 that you like right now, just hit the like button and go over to Rumble. Right now, if

00:33:06.000 you're on YouTube, go over to Rumble. I would love to see you at Rumble. We just, we have

00:33:11.000 to stream here until all of you guys convert. There's still millions of you who have not

00:33:14.000 converted yet. Millions like the votes? Yes. No, no.

00:33:20.000 Sorry.

00:33:20.000 No.

00:33:21.000 No.

00:33:33.000 I didn't mean in real life. I meant hypothetical to what we discussed based on a poll.

00:33:38.000 Yes, I understand in that I don't.

00:33:40.000 Right.

00:33:42.000 I mean, the poll we're allowed to share because it's a poll.

00:33:44.000 Yes, yes, yes, exactly.

00:33:46.000 And by the way, all the references are available at loudearthcrider.com.

00:33:49.000 We make them available so that hopefully you can do some research and be informed yourself.

00:33:52.000 I need to apologize, by the way, for last Thursday people were saying, where was the show?

00:33:56.000 We had some tech difficulties where everything was just corrupted.

00:34:00.000 The entire show that we did here, gone forever.

00:34:04.000 Thank God.

00:34:05.000 Um, but we did some investigating, just so you know.

00:34:09.000 We won't have that problem again.

00:34:10.000 Um, we actually, there were wiring problems.

00:34:13.000 Oh, yeah.

00:34:14.000 some pest control problems here in the studio and we actually we caught the culprit.

00:34:28.000 Brian Stelter.

00:34:31.000 Yes, it's I, heterosexual former news anchor Brian Stelter, and I've been nibbling on your wires. 0.96

00:34:37.000 What the heck? 0.98

00:34:38.000 Come here! 0.98

00:34:39.000 No!

00:34:39.000 Unhand me!

00:34:40.000 Unhand me! 0.96

00:34:41.000 Except for you!

00:34:42.000 You can hand me some more!

00:34:43.000 Oh! 0.60

00:34:44.000 No!

00:34:45.000 No!

00:34:46.000 Stop it! 0.99

00:34:47.000 No!

00:34:47.000 Yeah, you more though.

00:34:50.000 Oh man.

00:34:51.000 I don't know why we gave him the passcode.

00:34:53.000 I'm not sure.

00:34:54.000 I had a feeling he was going to nibble the wires.

00:34:55.000 You know, I paid him the stipend, but he never came into work.

00:34:58.000 That's weird.

00:34:59.000 He thought that was work.

00:35:00.000 He thinks his work is snacking.

00:35:01.000 The stipend was Dunkin' Donuts.

00:35:03.000 We actually put him in the Lighthouse Crowder Jail.

00:35:05.000 We'll check back with him in a little bit.

00:35:07.000 Really quick though, and of course we don't want to celebrate the misfortune of anyone else.

00:35:12.000 Beto's sick. 0.99

00:35:13.000 Robert Francis, he's a sick man. 1.00

00:35:15.000 He's a sick man in the head. 1.00

00:35:17.000 What? 1.00

00:35:17.000 But he's, as my French-Canadian grandfather would say, he would say, you're six malade. 1.00

00:35:21.000 And I didn't find out until, like, after he died that he was trying to say, malade means sick.

00:35:26.000 He was trying to say, you're sick, malade.

00:35:28.000 But he would say, you're six malade. 0.90

00:35:30.000 So I was like, what does six sick mean?

00:35:32.000 I didn't understand.

00:35:32.000 And he would say it all the time.

00:35:34.000 That's what he meant if you were a psychopath. 1.00

00:35:36.000 You'd go, you're six malade, man! 1.00

00:35:39.000 What?

00:35:39.000 Okay.

00:35:40.000 But that's Beto.

00:35:41.000 So Beto is sick, but now he's actually contracted an infection that has knocked him off the campaign trail for a while, according to O'Rourke.

00:35:48.000 He is resting.

00:35:49.000 He said, I'm sorry I've had to postpone events because of this, but I promise to be back on the road with you as soon as... Do you notice that O'Rourke and Zuckerberg and like Elizabeth Holm, they all talk that same way?

00:36:00.000 That talking this way as though it makes me seem articulate.

00:36:00.000 They do.

00:36:04.000 He threw a woman in there and it threw me off, but I'm like, yeah. 0.99

00:36:06.000 They all sound the same.

00:36:08.000 It also sounds like that woman who made up the blood. 0.99

00:36:11.000 Yes, I'm saying Elizabeth Holmes.

00:36:13.000 Okay, so I just said the same thing as you.

00:36:17.000 Yes, but that's because you have brain problems that weren't identified through Theranos.

00:36:21.000 I see, yes.

00:36:22.000 It pretty much just went to my offshore account.

00:36:25.000 I see, it's I'm afraid of needles.

00:36:27.000 Yes.

00:36:28.000 I have a black turtleneck.

00:36:29.000 Yes, I just like Steve Jobs.

00:36:31.000 Yep.

00:36:32.000 Moving on.

00:36:33.000 By the way, I could use a job.

00:36:36.000 Yes, I'm in jail.

00:36:37.000 So here's what's funny about this.

00:36:39.000 We'll move on from this quickly, without pandering at all.

00:36:41.000 Beto, he thanked the team at the Methodist Hospital in San Antonio.

00:36:45.000 I don't know, maybe you find this funny, maybe you don't.

00:36:47.000 I do.

00:36:48.000 He tweeted out, the extraordinary team there, from custodians to nurses and doctors, gave me excellent care and attention, including IV antibiotics.

00:36:59.000 So okay, I understand the thanking doctors and nurses.

00:37:02.000 Right.

00:37:03.000 Yes.

00:37:04.000 The custodians?

00:37:06.000 Well, he... What about the administrators?

00:37:09.000 I mean, if you're going to do the whole thing... The custodians?

00:37:10.000 I mean, thank the concierge!

00:37:11.000 Hey, you know where I can get a good IV?

00:37:13.000 Oh, well, there's a wonderful, if you go straight down, take a left on Shelter Boulevard, you will find yourself a bag o' needles.

00:37:19.000 Oh, nice.

00:37:22.000 Thank the custodians.

00:37:23.000 Thank them for not beating the hell out of me for the things I've said.

00:37:27.000 I'd like to thank everyone who works in the healthcare profession at Aetna.

00:37:31.000 The custodians?

00:37:32.000 Just the pandering that takes place from the, oh my gosh.

00:37:36.000 Just say thanks, you gave me an IV, you're the true heroes, blah blah blah blah.

00:37:40.000 Move on down the trail.

00:37:41.000 The custodians, the accountants.

00:37:43.000 To make the news.

00:37:44.000 Your attempt to be an everyman is just the saddest thing at all costs.

00:37:52.000 The custodians.

00:37:54.000 I'd like to thank the chimney sweeps and the window washers.

00:37:57.000 Yes!

00:37:58.000 I hope everybody in Texas shows up and votes him the worst of the defeats that he's had.

00:38:04.000 And that would be saying something because he ran in 2020.

00:38:06.000 I'd like to thank the milkman and the blacksmith.

00:38:09.000 Are you just thanking jobs that don't exist?

00:38:10.000 Do you even know what jobs are around now?

00:38:14.000 Do you even know the muffin man?

00:38:15.000 I do.

00:38:16.000 Personally.

00:38:17.000 I'd like to thank him.

00:38:18.000 The guy who rings the bell there?

00:38:23.000 Anyway, I just thought it was funny.

00:38:24.000 Beto, Francis, oh, okay.

00:38:25.000 Hold on a second.

00:38:26.000 What's that noise?

00:38:27.000 What is that noise?

00:38:27.000 What is that?

00:38:28.000 Oh, it's coming from the Lotto's Crowder Jail.

00:38:31.000 I'm hungry.

00:38:37.000 I'm hungry.

00:38:37.000 I want food.

00:38:40.000 What is this? Hey!

00:38:40.000 Hey!

00:38:42.000 What is that? What is that?

00:38:49.000 What is that?

00:39:01.000 Bye!

00:39:05.000 All right.

00:39:08.000 Guys, I gave you specific instructions to not feed him, but that'll last him for a good eight minutes, Brian Stelter.

00:39:15.000 We don't have too many sponsors here on the show, but Bilt... I actually talk about this.

00:39:18.000 It's something I actually eat.

00:39:19.000 Bilt bars are great if you want to avoid sweets.

00:39:21.000 No one needs protein bars.

00:39:22.000 They're delicious.

00:39:22.000 They can replace, like, your chocolate bars.

00:39:24.000 Go to Bilt.com.

00:39:25.000 Use a promo code CROWDER15.

00:39:26.000 You get 15% off.

00:39:28.000 They're made with... Oh, that's right.

00:39:29.000 This is the birth... I don't... Don't get the birthday cake.

00:39:31.000 Come on, some people like birthday cake.

00:39:32.000 It's the only box left because we eat all of them at the studio, and I don't like the birth- It's the only one I don't like.

00:39:38.000 Well.

00:39:39.000 I hate birthday cake.

00:39:40.000 If you're in a stelter- That's a lot of nuts!

00:39:41.000 But I don't like birthday cake, period.

00:39:43.000 If that makes Stelter stronger, we are all in for it.

00:39:46.000 Yes, then he might be as strong as the strongest girl at a 14-year-old slumber party.

00:39:50.000 Yeah.

00:39:52.000 Very easily.

00:39:53.000 You're gonna get hit with a pillow like you wouldn't believe.

00:39:55.000 He's gonna be loaded with ball gags, though.

00:39:58.000 Yeah, he is.

00:39:59.000 Alright.

00:40:01.000 Here's something else now, again for double standards, while we're talking about CNN and we're talking about FBI, we're talking about Facebook.

00:40:07.000 This morning this happened and it is as predictable as can be.

00:40:11.000 CNN, their New Day show.

00:40:14.000 It's always a new day.

00:40:15.000 Yeah, New Day.

00:40:16.000 That's where, what's his name, that Acosta guy does the reality check, which is the opposite of a check of reality. 1.00

00:40:21.000 He's like, and Donald Trump is a fascist. 0.98

00:40:24.000 He's just like Pinochet. 0.99

00:40:26.000 This.

00:40:26.000 Has been your reality. But he always points at the camera like this, right?

00:40:30.000 Like he's doing like the sideways gangster thing, right?

00:40:32.000 This has been your reality. I hope one day He just accidentally flashes the wrong gang symbols

00:40:37.000 And someone at home is inspired to get off their couch and give him a talking to a talking to verbal. He does it when

00:40:43.000 he's swatted Yes

00:40:46.000 Oh, that's terrible, you know, we'll spread it around a little bit tim pool gets swatted

00:40:50.000 104 times. Yeah cnn they can get one. Yeah, come on one swatting. 1.00

00:40:55.000 Come on be a team player They're like now we know that cnn. They're all criminals. 0.99

00:40:58.000 We're fine with it, right? Yeah So this morning on new day, uh, they were going over 0.88

00:41:02.000 comments made by lindsey graham. And of course they uh I want to be really clear about this.

00:41:07.000 They've done this with us.

00:41:08.000 They've done this with Donald Trump.

00:41:10.000 They're now going to do this with Lindsey Graham.

00:41:11.000 There is a consistent, not just a double standard, right? 1.00

00:41:14.000 Everyone's a hypocrite. 0.98

00:41:15.000 Often there's a double standard because you look at the world through your own bias lens. 0.99

00:41:18.000 I understand that.

00:41:19.000 This is something where people are deliberately subverting the truth.

00:41:23.000 trying to present, they can be colloquialisms, they can be just sort of, they can be terminology,

00:41:29.000 abbreviations, they can be expressions that these people use themselves, but they want

00:41:33.000 to hold you accountable for them as though they are literal comments when you make them.

00:41:40.000 The same can be said here when they actually call for riots, they actually call for violence,

00:41:44.000 they've done so, and we'll get into that in just a second here. We have other clips from Maxine

00:41:48.000 Waters. I feel like we almost run her clips too often because she's just a gift that keeps on

00:41:52.000 giving violently, but they want to act as though when someone else on your side is simply commenting

00:41:59.000 on or observing what's happening in this country that you are of course making an active call to

00:42:04.000 So here's CNN's New Day trying to do this with Lindsey Graham's comments. 0.99

00:42:08.000 Senator Lindsey Graham says people would take to the streets if former President Trump is indicted for mishandling classified documents.

00:42:18.000 If there's a prosecution of Donald Trump for mishandling classified information, after the Clinton debacle which you presided over and did a hell of a good job, there'll be riots in the streets.

00:42:30.000 With us now, CNN political commentator and host of CNN's Smirkonish, Michael Smirkonish.

00:42:34.000 Michael, great to see you.

00:42:35.000 Mary McCord, who was on Brianna earlier this morning, said when she heard that it sounded to her like an implicit threat.

00:42:41.000 What do you hear there?

00:42:42.000 Someone told me who told someone else who saw Ferris' best friend's girlfriend's sister's cousin's boyfriend who knows this guy.

00:42:48.000 I think there is a perception of a double standard that was fueled in part by Mark Zuckerberg in the last couple of days talking about how Facebook was approached by the FBI in the 11th hour of the last campaign saying, be on the lookout for Russian misinformation or disinformation.

00:43:03.000 Whether these are apples and apples, we can debate, but there is a perception that when it was Hillary, when it was Hunter Biden, it gets handled differently than when it's Donald Trump.

00:43:13.000 So, I'm worried about what Lindsey Graham is saying.

00:43:13.000 There's no perception.

00:43:16.000 So, hold on a second.

00:43:17.000 I'm worried about what he's saying because of a perc... No, there's no perception! 0.98

00:43:23.000 How do we know that the FBI told him that the Hunter Biden story was missing?

00:43:27.000 Because the president, the creator of Facebook, said the FBI told him.

00:43:32.000 There's this interpretation.

00:43:35.000 There's this perception.

00:43:36.000 In one case, they go, it's a perception, right?

00:43:38.000 So they've now taken facts off of your side of the ledger.

00:43:42.000 They haven't actually refuted them.

00:43:43.000 They've just taken them off by saying there's this perception.

00:43:45.000 No, no.

00:43:46.000 It's what happened.

00:43:48.000 Right.

00:43:48.000 Beyond any shadow of a doubt, and then they try and present their conjecture as facts.

00:43:53.000 There's this perception, but now this woman stated emphatically that this is an implicit call to violence. 0.92

00:43:58.000 See that sleight of hand that takes place?

00:43:59.000 And then they use that to ban you. 0.64

00:44:01.000 Yeah, and I don't know if this is an apples-to-apples comparison.

00:44:01.000 Yeah.

00:44:03.000 Hey, you got that one right.

00:44:04.000 One is the President of the United States who controls what's classified and what's not, and didn't have his documents hacked or taken by foreign entities.

00:44:12.000 The other was not the President of the United States, did not have rights to have those documents on a private server at home, that was hacked by foreign entities, that was then scrubbed, and then she said, no problem.

00:44:22.000 And also, Hillary Clinton has no power to declassify documents, period. 0.80

00:44:25.000 No, not at all.

00:44:26.000 Of course, it's not apples to apples.

00:44:26.000 Yeah.

00:44:28.000 So it's more like apples to your retarded. 0.99

00:44:33.000 I like apples. 0.98

00:44:34.000 I like apples too.

00:44:35.000 I don't like them apples.

00:44:36.000 What's your favorite?

00:44:37.000 I like a Honeycrisp.

00:44:38.000 I like a Fuji.

00:44:39.000 Yeah, you do.

00:44:39.000 I like a good Fuji.

00:44:41.000 Grandma Smith.

00:44:41.000 I like Gala.

00:44:43.000 You know what I don't like?

00:44:43.000 Yeah.

00:44:44.000 New Day apples.

00:44:46.000 Nope.

00:44:47.000 How do you like them apples?

00:44:48.000 Michael Smermerkermish, this piece of sh... went on to discuss the...

00:44:54.000 Possibility that Graham was trying to actually also, not only implicitly, call for violence. 0.88

00:44:59.000 You notice how they always say, someone else told me, someone else said that this seemed like a call to violence, or a blatant threat was the term they used from Lindsey Graham.

00:45:07.000 None of them want to hang their hat on it and say, this sounds like a threat to me.

00:45:11.000 They say, someone else, one of our reporters said this, and they'll go to that reporter later and that reporter won't say it, they'll blame somebody else.

00:45:16.000 But then they did try and say that Lindsey Graham in saying this, in stating something, That is a very real possibility that he was trying to influence the outcome of the election.

00:45:25.000 The gaslighting continues.

00:45:27.000 I think the harder issue here is how is Merrick Garland supposed to evaluate that information?

00:45:34.000 And what I mean is that, traditionally, a prosecutor takes a look at a case and decides, is there sufficient evidence for me to prosecute a crime?

00:45:42.000 Can I win it?

00:45:43.000 No and no.

00:45:44.000 In this set of circumstances, there's an additional criteria, it seems.

00:45:48.000 In fact, the New York Times, in that huge editorial that they ran this weekend, said Merrick Garland also needs to determine whether it would be wise to bring a prosecution.

00:45:57.000 If there's a fear of civil unrest, should that enter into Garland's decision-making?

00:46:04.000 I would argue no, because we can't have prosecutors making decisions based on polling data or the prospect of civil unrest, because then the rule of law disintegrates.

00:46:15.000 Here's the thing.

00:46:16.000 I actually agree with that last point, but that's not what Lindsey Graham was doing. 0.98

00:46:21.000 And I don't even like Lindsey Graham. 0.96

00:46:23.000 He's a wiener. 0.93

00:46:24.000 Yeah, he's very unpleasant to listen to. 0.99

00:46:27.000 I don't hate him, he's just a wiener. 0.95

00:46:29.000 That's the only way I can describe him.

00:46:30.000 Not a fan.

00:46:32.000 You can comment below.

00:46:33.000 It's just one in my head.

00:46:34.000 I just see him like, Wiener.

00:46:35.000 And he's talking, and I hear womp, womp, womp, womp, womp, womp, womp, Wiener, Wiener, Wiener.

00:46:39.000 That's all I hear.

00:46:39.000 I just can't stand with Lindsey Graham.

00:46:40.000 He's just very effeminate when he talks.

00:46:42.000 It's like too much.

00:46:42.000 Yeah.

00:46:43.000 Exactly.

00:46:44.000 Like he's an effeminate and he's angry.

00:46:46.000 Yes, exactly. 0.99

00:46:47.000 He's like, I can't believe there's gays in my neighborhood. 1.00

00:46:48.000 Like I feel like he has pecan sandies in his desk drawer. 0.93

00:46:51.000 Not pens, but pecan sandies.

00:46:53.000 Yeah, I just eat a lot of pecan sandies, and when I'm done, I'm done.

00:46:56.000 It's a Southern thing you wouldn't understand.

00:46:58.000 We say, y'all, and we don't have pens in our desk.

00:47:00.000 We have pecan sandies.

00:47:01.000 What?

00:47:02.000 I have oral fixation ever since I quit smoking.

00:47:04.000 I got something in my mouth.

00:47:05.000 And I never smoked.

00:47:07.000 So, I agree though with the point.

00:47:10.000 I agree with the point.

00:47:11.000 They shouldn't be making a decision based on the potential of civil unrest.

00:47:16.000 That being said, Lindsey Graham was not calling for civil unrest.

00:47:18.000 But I'm trying to think if there would be a clear example of this having happened at some point in recent memory.

00:47:25.000 Oh wait, that's right.

00:47:26.000 Maxine Waters actively calling for violent escalation during the Chauvin trial if she didn't get the outcome that she wanted. 0.72

00:47:34.000 We're looking for a guilty verdict.

00:47:38.000 We're looking for a guilty verdict.

00:47:40.000 Okay.

00:47:40.000 And we're looking to see if all of the talk that took place and has been taking place after they saw what happened.

00:47:48.000 Pebbles dress face mask.

00:47:49.000 If nothing does not happen, Then we know that we've got to not only stay in the street, but we've got to fight for justice.

00:47:59.000 But I am very hopeful, and I hope that we're going to get a verdict that will say guilty, guilty, guilty.

00:48:08.000 What should protesters do?

00:48:10.000 Well, we've got to stay on the street, and we've got to get more active.

00:48:14.000 We've got to get more confrontational.

00:48:17.000 We've got to make sure that they know that we mean business.

00:48:21.000 Okay, hold on a second.

00:48:22.000 Before you guys jump in, I don't want to do what CNN does and say that she meant fight literally, even though at that point they had been fighting literally throughout the streets the entire summer.

00:48:32.000 And I don't want to say when she answered very clearly what we need to do is get more confrontational as though she meant that literally.

00:48:39.000 And I don't want to say that correlation equals causation, but of course, regardless of the verdict, her constituents did this anyway. 0.96

00:48:52.000 You'll be darned. 0.62

00:48:54.000 I thought she meant like a dance-off. 0.98

00:48:56.000 You know?

00:48:56.000 Yes.

00:48:57.000 I like that she had my underwear on her face. 1.00

00:48:59.000 It's either that or Halle Berry's dress and the Flintstones.

00:49:06.000 And then she said, harass everybody in diners, wherever they go. 0.97

00:49:10.000 Lindsey Graham is saying, look, if citizens believe that there is an unfair prosecution in this country, you could see civil unrest.

00:49:17.000 And you know why they would believe that?

00:49:19.000 Because it's an unfair prosecution if it happens.

00:49:22.000 There are laws that just throw this all out.

00:49:24.000 Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you.

00:49:25.000 No, you're fine.

00:49:26.000 Presidential records. 1.00

00:49:26.000 It's just stupid. 1.00

00:49:28.000 None of what they said matters. 1.00

00:49:30.000 None of why they went into Mar-a-Lago matters at all.

00:49:33.000 The president is under no obligation to turn documents over swiftly.

00:49:37.000 He can do it later.

00:49:38.000 A librarian asked him for some stuff.

00:49:40.000 He's the president of the United States.

00:49:43.000 They've done this historically.

00:49:44.000 There's always a fight over these documents.

00:49:46.000 Well, what he's trying to argue, too, is he's trying to say, this is unprecedented, right?

00:49:51.000 And the left is trying to say, no, this is business as usual.

00:49:53.000 Well, let me tell you, let me give you some examples here really quickly as to what is unprecedented.

00:49:56.000 Okay, the Espionage Act has not been used against presidents in the past, okay?

00:50:01.000 There have not been any presidents who have been rated for documents.

00:50:05.000 This idea that presidents are not allowed to have documents that they've declassified, that is unprecedented.

00:50:11.000 What's unprecedented is, of course, the prosecution of political opponents when you look at what the IRS, when you look at what the FBI is doing, when you look at what the FBI did with major media outlets.

00:50:20.000 Let's just call Facebook and Twitter what they are now.

00:50:22.000 They're publishers.

00:50:23.000 They're major media outlets.

00:50:24.000 They're not platforms, right?

00:50:25.000 All of that is unprecedented.

00:50:27.000 What's not unprecedented is someone saying, hey, maybe there was some foul play in the election.

00:50:32.000 Why?

00:50:33.000 Because Hillary Clinton did that? 1.00

00:50:36.000 Which election?

00:50:37.000 The one before the one that you're saying we're not allowed to talk about.

00:50:39.000 And then, of course, Al Gore did that.

00:50:41.000 And for people who say, oh, Al Gore, Florida, George Bush, look into that!

00:50:44.000 I know a lot of you may not have done History Remedial.

00:50:47.000 A lot of people think that Al Gore wanted a recount.

00:50:50.000 No, he didn't.

00:50:51.000 He wanted it in four specific counties.

00:50:53.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:50:54.000 He wanted to make sure he won the election.

00:50:55.000 He specifically fought a recount, which George W. Bush said, let's recount all of Florida.

00:51:00.000 No, no, no.

00:51:01.000 I just want this area.

00:51:02.000 So a lot of people aren't even informed on that, and I bet if you run a search right now on Google, you won't actually find out the Supreme Court case.

00:51:09.000 I think Ted Cruz actually played a part in that.

00:51:11.000 So while we're talking about precedent and what's unprecedented, something else I want to say.

00:51:15.000 I was about to make a comment, and I think it's kind of lazy, but I think it matters.

00:51:18.000 What you just saw, that riot, whatever they were burning there, but billions of dollars in damages, right?

00:51:24.000 The whole Summer of Love.

00:51:25.000 Okay, we know that.

00:51:26.000 And a lot of people say, look at that versus January 6th.

00:51:29.000 I don't even think we need to make that comparison.

00:51:31.000 When people talk about January 6th as though it was completely unprecedented, you don't even need to go so far back to the riots.

00:51:39.000 There is a direct apples-to-apples, to use Michael Stromer's comparison there. 0.95

00:51:46.000 They burned down a church right across from the White House and stormed the gates, and the President of the United States, Donald Trump, was hidden in the White House, and everyone mocked him, saying, oh, the coward's going to his bunker. 0.75

00:51:58.000 That was way worse than... They burned a church down! 0.93

00:52:01.000 You don't even need to go to the riots.

00:52:04.000 Right there, a stone's throw away from what happened on January 6th.

00:52:08.000 There was arson.

00:52:10.000 There was violent felonies that happened, and people attempting to breach the White House and kill the President, and they mocked the President.

00:52:18.000 And we call January 6th the greatest act of terror in American history?

00:52:23.000 We don't even need to go macro with the examples of the billions of dollars and the thousands of casualties and dozens of officers who were shot or killed.

00:52:32.000 Just go apples to apples.

00:52:33.000 Hey, this happened January 6th.

00:52:34.000 Okay, happened right there in Washington, D.C.

00:52:37.000 Only a few weeks earlier, they stormed the gates and burned down a church right across from the White House.

00:52:43.000 That's worse.

00:52:44.000 We don't hear about that anymore.

00:52:44.000 Period.

00:52:45.000 It's like everyone's forgotten about it.

00:52:46.000 It's been memory hold.

00:52:47.000 Well, absolutely.

00:52:48.000 And I want to make sure that we're clear about this, too.

00:52:50.000 Don't let the FBI become the biggest of the boogeymen.

00:52:53.000 This is the Department of Justice under Joe Biden.

00:52:57.000 All of this goes back to Joe Biden.

00:52:59.000 That is his biggest political opponent coming up in the next presidential election.

00:53:03.000 Joe Biden, bad gas prices, terrible economy, everything falling apart in the world.

00:53:08.000 It seems right now Russia just continuing to invade a country. 0.74

00:53:10.000 We just continue to send the money.

00:53:12.000 They continue to hold Europe And I guess a vice for the upcoming winner, because they have no gas and heat for all their homes.

00:53:20.000 That is Joe Biden.

00:53:21.000 Don't lose focus on Joe Biden, because that's what he wants.

00:53:24.000 It's not just former President Trump. 0.99

00:53:26.000 It's the guy who would kick his ass in an election if it were held today. 0.99

00:53:29.000 Just to be clear, that's the guy who he's raiding. 0.99

00:53:32.000 That's unprecedented.

00:53:33.000 Two impeachments based on a sham, by the way.

00:53:35.000 There was an impeachment of Donald Trump because they said, oh yeah, Russia...

00:53:38.000 Trump's not guilty of anything, but he was impeached for something that never happened.

00:53:41.000 That's unprecedented.

00:53:43.000 The FBI raid is unprecedented.

00:53:45.000 Lindsey Graham saying, you know what, there might be backlash to this, is completely precedented.

00:53:49.000 Well the reason why January 6th is being used is what other events are you going to use that even resembles a riot?

00:53:55.000 Right.

00:53:56.000 Well, and that's what you have to use to say that this kind of conversation is violence.

00:54:00.000 We can't allow them to talk about these things because it's violence. 0.98

00:54:03.000 No, it's not violence at all.

00:54:04.000 It's just information.

00:54:06.000 Good point to that is they point to discussing any election irregularities as dangerous misinformation, right?

00:54:14.000 And so that's the only example they can point to, and they try to point to.

00:54:18.000 I would argue, while we're doing apples to apples, dangerous misinformation Claiming that the Hunter Biden laptop story, which of course directly involves his father, the former Vice President of the United States, and deals with Ukraine and China, I would say having that labeled misinformation is far more damaging than people saying, hey, you know what?

00:54:37.000 We need to have voter ID.

00:54:39.000 I would say the story that went out that said Ashley Biden, where she talked about being molested, And being at least fondled by and showering with her dad, maybe nothing sexual, in her own diary, saying that that was fraudulent and Russian misinformation?

00:54:53.000 I would say that's more dangerous than people questioning the election.

00:54:56.000 And do you know how I know you believe that too?

00:54:58.000 YouTube, Facebook, Twitter?

00:55:00.000 You allowed Hillary Clinton and Amy Klobuchar and Elizabeth Warren and Jimmy Carter and Al Gore to do it for years.

00:55:07.000 So while we're doing apples to apples comparison, I think the dangerous misinformation is that which is verifiable, which has changed the outcome of our country.

00:55:16.000 Let me say this.

00:55:16.000 And you know what?

00:55:17.000 I've never said this. 0.88

00:55:17.000 This is going to sound like I'm a prick, and sometimes I am. 0.88

00:55:22.000 I think the best case scenario is that conservatives, people like you right now watching, that you've been responsible fiscally, and that you can wait it out, and that the next couple of years hurt like hell for the people who voted for it. 0.99

00:55:35.000 I want the people who voted for this shit to say, God, I can't afford to drive to work. 0.98

00:55:41.000 I can't afford to buy chuck roast, let alone to buy top sirloin. 1.00

00:55:46.000 The rent prices are going up.

00:55:48.000 Look at the interest rates.

00:55:49.000 I think that these people need to experience the sting So that they can remember how good we had it in this country.

00:55:56.000 Regardless of whether you have an R or a D next to your name.

00:55:59.000 It needs to sting.

00:56:01.000 And we need to weather that storm.

00:56:02.000 That's the perfect world scenario.

00:56:03.000 I don't want it.

00:56:04.000 I don't want hardships for any of you out there.

00:56:05.000 But I think that this country needs to feel it right now.

00:56:08.000 Give unto us a king.

00:56:09.000 You said CNN is... Yeah, CNN, they're talking about Lindsey Graham right now.

00:56:12.000 The riots in the streets. 1.00

00:56:13.000 Okay, let's see if they pull this shit. 1.00

00:56:15.000 And Kingsley looks like shit. 1.00

00:56:16.000 have lots of reasons to believe that many of Mr. Trump's most ardent 0.99

00:56:16.000 With no violence that I know of. 0.99

00:56:21.000 supporters might decide to resort to violence or see how people responded to

00:56:27.000 just the information that his residents have been searched.

00:56:29.000 So I think it's it's definitely a concern for national security officials.

00:56:35.000 However, if the Department of Justice makes the decision to not prosecute a

00:56:41.000 former president when the facts and the law indicate that that prosecution should

00:56:45.000 go forward, they decide not to simply because they're afraid of how that

00:56:50.000 former president's supporters might react.

00:56:52.000 Well, they're pushing this narrative in real time.

00:56:54.000 I know, it's crazy.

00:56:55.000 And I don't think that that is an acceptable result under any circumstances, despite what the threats or the conflagration or the public outrage might be.

00:57:04.000 Those are all things that we need to be able to manage.

00:57:06.000 Like you just explained it, and then they just did it.

00:57:09.000 I'll tell you exactly why they're doing this right.

00:57:10.000 Well, I want to hear what the Ben Kingsley Mr. Peabody has to say.

00:57:16.000 If he'd go in and say, give me the reverse Botox under my chin.

00:57:20.000 Can you do that, please?

00:57:21.000 Can I look like I'm frowning all the time, please?

00:57:24.000 He looks like his B should... What?

00:57:26.000 What did she say?

00:57:28.000 She said the law should be applied the same to everyone.

00:57:32.000 Really?

00:57:32.000 I really wanted to hear what that other guy said because I imagined his bees would sound like... That's a better way of putting it.

00:57:36.000 That's a better way of putting it.

00:57:53.000 That's This is exactly why they're doing it right now. 0.96

00:57:55.000 What do you think people do when, pardon my language, you fuck everything up, okay?

00:58:02.000 We've talked about this before, the timeline with the Mar-a-Lago raid.

00:58:05.000 Okay, the raid happens.

00:58:07.000 No, no, no, the timeline before this, Donald Trump was actually complying with them.

00:58:09.000 Whatever you need.

00:58:10.000 Had handed over documents, said, okay, great, just let us know what you need.

00:58:13.000 Instead they decided to go in there and of course they blamed Donald Trump, saying the only reason you know about it is because Donald Trump tweeted about it.

00:58:20.000 Well, he was tweeting, he was posting it on Truth Social because you violated the law and didn't actually allow them to read the warrant, and this was concerning.

00:58:27.000 This shouldn't happen in the dark.

00:58:28.000 You knew that he was going to do that.

00:58:29.000 Okay, so this happens.

00:58:30.000 That's completely unprecedented.

00:58:31.000 Then what happened is everybody said, actually, Merrick Garland doesn't know anything about this.

00:58:35.000 He came out later.

00:58:36.000 We said that on this show!

00:58:37.000 We were factually inaccurate because Garland lied.

00:58:41.000 Then he came out later, said, actually I was the one who personally called it, trying to act like he's like this strong authority figure.

00:58:47.000 And then he said, and we're going to unseal the information so long as Donald Trump agrees to it.

00:58:52.000 Everyone said mic drop and Donald Trump said, okay, unseal all of it.

00:58:55.000 How about the reason for the affidavit?

00:58:57.000 Oh, you don't want them to find all your child porn? 0.90

00:59:02.000 They said, no, no, no, we can't do that.

00:59:04.000 We can't do that unsealed because it would actually, it would interfere with the security of witnesses.

00:59:09.000 Okay.

00:59:09.000 They said, all right, let's just redact it.

00:59:11.000 So then they said, no, that would take too long.

00:59:13.000 Then they released some redacted pages, I guess, that you see out there.

00:59:17.000 They released the thing, but it's mostly redacted.

00:59:19.000 It's entirely redacted.

00:59:20.000 So nobody can actually see what's going on.

00:59:23.000 And no one can know if this is actually justified at this point.

00:59:27.000 And if they prosecute him, people are going to be pissed, and they probably are going to take to the streets.

00:59:32.000 Now, knowing conservatives, knowing people on the right, it'll be almost entirely, I would assume, if not completely, entirely non-violent.

00:59:40.000 They certainly won't be waging war against their fellow citizens, like the Black Lives Matter protesters, or Maxine Waters herself.

00:59:46.000 Where do you expect them to go?

00:59:48.000 You said, we're going to do this, we're going to do that, you lied about all of it, and now, where we are today, are we the 29th?

00:59:55.000 We're the 29th of August.

00:59:55.000 Yes.

00:59:58.000 The raid happened two and a half weeks ago?

01:00:00.000 Something like that.

01:00:01.000 Two and a half weeks ago.

01:00:03.000 Let's call it 15 days ago.

01:00:03.000 Okay.

01:00:06.000 We know zero more about the justification for the raid today than we did back then.

01:00:12.000 But we've had at least a dozen promises that we were going to be given the information.

01:00:18.000 And it was going to be the final nail in the coffin.

01:00:21.000 We know nothing more than we knew back then. 0.98

01:00:25.000 Now, imagine today goes into tomorrow and they decide to prosecute the man who we know would beat the shit out of Joe Biden in an election. 0.97

01:00:35.000 Of course there would be unrest. 0.97

01:00:37.000 Not because of systemic racism that can't be described and people using it as an excuse to go and steal a Westinghouse.

01:00:45.000 But because people are saying, you told us that you would let us in on why you are doing this.

01:00:51.000 There were crimes so egregious it threatened the security of our nation state.

01:00:57.000 We know nothing more today than we did the day the raid happened.

01:01:00.000 Well, you wouldn't think that from watching CNN, because what they've been putting out there is, oh my gosh, nuclear information that maybe could fall into the wrong hands.

01:01:08.000 By the way, so far, maybe he's selling it into the hands.

01:01:11.000 And there's other stories and timelines out there where he asks for this information about informants, and then we start losing informants around the world being killed.

01:01:17.000 I wonder if Donald Trump is paying off business favors.

01:01:21.000 All of that ran.

01:01:23.000 Everybody got to hear about that, even though there's no evidence of any of that.

01:01:26.000 And by the way, he said something, he's like, they shouldn't be afraid.

01:01:29.000 You shouldn't be afraid if you're applying the law equally.

01:01:31.000 You should be terrified, if you are not, that the people will not stand for it.

01:01:37.000 I'm sorry, that's not how this country works.

01:01:39.000 You don't get to run roughshod over the American population and go, you just have to take it. 0.56

01:01:43.000 That's not how we do business here.

01:01:44.000 No.

01:01:45.000 You should be terrified.

01:01:46.000 And I'm not saying that you would come across physical harm.

01:01:48.000 I'm saying that you would lose your jobs, that you guys would be run out of business.

01:01:52.000 You should be terrified of that.

01:01:53.000 Yeah.

01:01:54.000 What should happen next, the next president of the United States, if they are Republican, and if Republicans, if they take the House and Senate, what needs to happen next is, because people before were saying, hey, it can be used against you.

01:02:04.000 Well, guess what?

01:02:05.000 We need to start using it against them.

01:02:07.000 There needs to be prosecution to the fullest extent of the law, insider trading.

01:02:11.000 Any kind of election meddling that's happened or any kind of irregularities, any changing of the election laws that violate the state constitutions?

01:02:18.000 Any type of international relationships like we see with Joe Biden in Ukraine, that requires an investigation.

01:02:24.000 There should be full investigation and prosecution of everyone, and it should happen with complete transparency and no redactions.

01:02:31.000 That's what the next Republican needs to do, and I won't vote for anyone or support anyone who doesn't promise to do it.

01:02:38.000 There's no more playing nice.

01:02:40.000 They take the low road, we take the high road.

01:02:42.000 No, no, no, no.

01:02:43.000 There's only one road. 0.93

01:02:44.000 There's only one road right now, and they're driving like assholes on the fast lane, slowing the rest of us down, because the rest of us just actually want to get back on the road to freedom, and we can't, because we have an 87,000% increased IRS force. 0.85

01:02:57.000 We have the FBI, who now have more power over the American public than ever before. 0.72

01:03:01.000 And instead of paying for, I don't know, border security?

01:03:04.000 Instead of paying for, I don't know, ensuring that we have the most effective military in the world?

01:03:09.000 Instead of ensuring that we have elections with integrity?

01:03:12.000 Instead of spending money on those things, what are we doing?

01:03:15.000 Well, we're forgiving student loans for people who got gender studies degrees.

01:03:20.000 Yeah.

01:03:21.000 That's where we are in this country.

01:03:23.000 Yeah, that's a legitimate role of government.

01:03:24.000 You need to understand the legitimate purview of government if you're going to look at any of this and be as terrified as you need to be.

01:03:30.000 Look, I will tell you this, there's a silver lining in a lot of these issues that are happening today.

01:03:38.000 We might be beyond the bend with some of it.

01:03:42.000 You've even heard me say that before.

01:03:43.000 If this continues to go on completely unchecked, we cannot have a country where the FBI can selectively prosecute, can selectively enforce the law, and selectively tell all major media and big tech outlets what they're allowed to cover.

01:04:00.000 That cannot be allowed to stand.

01:04:03.000 That's again why Lindsey Graham is a little bit of a wiener. 1.00

01:04:05.000 We need better than Lindsey Graham in there. 1.00

01:04:07.000 And we need you, all of you, to fight for every single inch, all the time.

01:04:13.000 Reduce your dependency on big tech.

01:04:16.000 You need to start voting with your dollar.

01:04:18.000 And I know it's hard.

01:04:19.000 It's hard because, unfortunately, the left gets their hands into everything.

01:04:22.000 But there are good local businesses that you can support.

01:04:25.000 You can get involved in your local politics.

01:04:27.000 And what I will say beyond anything, you know what the best thing is that you can do?

01:04:32.000 Is just stop going, ooh, ooh.

01:04:34.000 Let your freak flag fly. 0.86

01:04:36.000 Honestly. 0.85

01:04:37.000 Don't be shy if someone says, oh, well, Donald Trump. 1.00

01:04:39.000 Just say, oh, fuck you. 1.00

01:04:41.000 You know, this is ridiculous. 1.00

01:04:43.000 It's a sham. 1.00

01:04:44.000 You know what?

01:04:45.000 I could use a few enemies.

01:04:45.000 I have plenty of friends.

01:04:47.000 You're not welcome at my barbecue.

01:04:49.000 I'm done with it.

01:04:50.000 No more cocktail parties with these people.

01:04:51.000 Not when they're this far gone.

01:04:53.000 By the way, it's a live show, Monday through Thursday, 10 a.m.

01:04:55.000 Eastern.

01:04:56.000 I would love for all of you to watch on Rumble, where you can listen to the audio on Apple, on Android.

01:05:00.000 But Rumble, and of course, Mug Club, the promo code is FreeSpeech.

01:05:04.000 FreeSpeech, you get $30 off.

01:05:05.000 We take your chat.

01:05:06.000 We have a whole story now.

01:05:07.000 We've gone late.

01:05:09.000 Manatee Tao? 1.00

01:05:10.000 I'm gonna kill you, I think. 1.00

01:05:12.000 Is it Manatee, Tao? 0.99

01:05:13.000 You know what, we'll figure out what the name is, but we're gonna go to Mug Club and he'll inform me.

01:05:17.000 Probably wrong, I'm pretty sure it's Manatee.
