00:00:00.000 I need no evil, baby.
00:00:02.000 Thank you.
00:00:51.000 It's just weathering when I won't let marry your own. 1.00
00:01:06.000 It's just an out.
00:01:09.000 It's just work.
00:02:14.000 69.
00:02:16.000 Now it's time for new, believable people.
00:02:20.000 And we must do it.
00:02:21.000 If we don't control insiders, this will be over and over.
00:02:26.000 To lead it by an 8 big, fat love, it's like common ground to hold the spread of lies.
00:02:34.000 And we must do it big, fat.
00:02:37.000 Love, it's like common ground to hold the spread of lies.
00:02:44.000 America first.
00:02:45.000 America first.
00:02:47.000 Naughty, non-fatal.
00:02:49.000 We want to build a much better, believable people.
00:02:53.000 And we must do it.
00:02:54.000 Non-fatal.
00:02:56.000 Communication very much higher.
00:02:58.000 America first.
00:03:00.000 To lead it by an 8.
00:03:02.000 Insiders fighting for insiders.
00:03:04.000 Time to stop.
00:03:05.000 Insiders fighting for insiders.
00:03:08.000 More of insiders fighting for insiders.
00:03:11.000 Time to stop.
00:03:13.000 Insiders fighting for insiders.
00:03:15.000 America first.
00:03:17.000 Love the flow.
00:03:20.000 69.
00:03:22.000 Now it's time for new, believable people.
00:03:26.000 And we must do it.
00:03:28.000 If we don't control insiders, this will be over and over.
00:03:33.000 To lead it by an 8 big, fat love.
00:03:36.000 It's like common ground.
00:03:38.000 To hold the spread of lies.
00:03:41.000 And we must do it big, fat.
00:03:43.000 Love.
00:03:44.000 It's like common ground.
00:03:46.000 To hold the spread of lies and paid observation protests continue across the country this evening, and we want you to know, of course, that though there are some individual protesters who are agitated, it is not the norm.
00:04:11.000 These protests are largely peaceful.
00:04:14.000 Many people look back at the demonstrations at Selma and wonder, what would I have done?
00:04:18.000 Would I have marched across that bridge?
00:04:21.000 Or would I be standing on the other side?
00:04:23.000 Well, I have an answer for you.
00:04:25.000 And my answer is a question.
00:04:28.000 What are you doing now?
00:04:30.000 Now, Tanya, how would you describe the attitude on the ground there?
00:04:34.000 We go now live to our woman in the field, Tanya Franks.
00:04:37.000 Tanya?
00:04:38.000 Well, Chris, first I want to say that was inspiring.
00:04:40.000 As far as the attitude on the ground, you know, folks are entirely peaceful, but far from happy.
00:04:46.000 Just imagine if every day when you left home, you didn't know whether you'd be coming back.
00:04:50.000 What power?
00:04:51.000 You'd might be a little upset, too.
00:04:52.000 Well, Tanya, in my line of work, that's always a possibility, but I know that many in the audience might not understand what that's like.
00:05:00.000 No.
00:05:02.000 Tanya, was that a man on fire?
00:05:04.000 Hard to tell with the flames, Chris.
00:05:06.000 Might have been a really muscular lady. 1.00
00:05:08.000 So, Tanya, what are the people on the ground saying there? 1.00
00:05:12.000 Yeah, we're going to burn this motherfucker down. 1.00
00:05:14.000 313, bitch! 1.00
00:05:15.000 That's right, CVS is open for business, y'all! 1.00
00:05:18.000 Take what you need, my f***ers! 1.00
00:05:21.000 A fitting tribute to the memory of George Floyd, Chris. 0.99
00:05:24.000 Yo, who did that? 1.00
00:05:25.000 That's a motherfucker with a grill. 1.00
00:05:26.000 Charged evening, to be certain. 1.00
00:05:28.000 Now, some people are asking, why is this happening now?
00:05:32.000 Haven't things gotten better?
00:05:34.000 But there are still persistent and pervasive inequities in this country, and these protests are a reaction to that.
00:05:41.000 And aside from a string of isolated incidents, very small, things have been pretty peaceful, very tame.
00:05:48.000 Any final thoughts, Tanya?
00:05:51.000 Oh, hello, sir.
00:05:55.000 What's your name?
00:05:59.000 I'm sorry, that was unfair.
00:06:00.000 Allow me to reframe the question.
00:06:03.000 Where, might I ask, is Tanya?
00:06:03.000 Good sir.
00:06:06.000 Oh, she did.
00:06:11.000 Yo! 1.00
00:06:12.000 Yo, I got enough of watchdog! 0.96
00:06:13.000 Yeah!
00:06:15.000 The language of the unheard.
00:06:18.000 We'll be right back.

00:06:37.000 Subject for today.
00:06:52.000 Glad to be with you.
00:06:55.000 It's Friday, which, you know, we always do a show Friday, 11 a.m. Eastern, as we do every day.
00:07:00.000 But this is more of a love letter to Mug Club, Rumble Premium.
00:07:03.000 It's just for you guys.
00:07:04.000 And I know you might be seeing for the next 10 minutes watching, but isn't this for us too?
00:07:08.000 Only for 10 minutes.
00:07:09.000 That's it.
00:07:10.000 And then you get the rest of it.
00:07:11.000 It's a little bit looser.
00:07:12.000 It's a little bit, you know, this is where if someone's going to pull a highlight reel to take us down, this would be a good place to start.
00:07:19.000 Is the Friday program?
00:07:19.000 That's right.
00:07:22.000 We're going to get into an eye for an ice.
00:07:29.000 I don't feel good about that.
00:07:30.000 I don't feel good about it.
00:07:32.000 Actually, no, let me rephrase that.
00:07:33.000 I don't feel good about the fact that I don't feel bad enough about it.
00:07:38.000 Yeah.
00:07:40.000 Because we all still have eyes.
00:07:42.000 I see your point.
00:07:43.000 And it's not that hard to do.
00:07:46.000 Keep your eye.
00:07:48.000 Yeah, I've been feeling really good for 30 years.
00:07:50.000 It's almost like especially outside of war.
00:07:50.000 I know.
00:07:52.000 It's sort of, I guess it's one of our fortes: keeping our eyes.
00:07:56.000 Yeah.
00:07:57.000 Spoiler alert, if you're wondering for some, if you're wondering what the advice will be, don't charge officers and don't charge officers.
00:08:04.000 That's it.
00:08:05.000 We're also going to get to Canada.
00:08:06.000 I don't know if you know this, but Canada actually said the quiet part out loud.
00:08:09.000 Their prime minister said they want to be a part of the new world order with Chickety China. 1.00
00:08:14.000 So they are, as far as I'm concerned, a national security threat.
00:08:17.000 Viva Frey said that on this show.
00:08:19.000 He was actually making a very good case.
00:08:21.000 This was a few months back.
00:08:22.000 Maybe we should have him back on.
00:08:23.000 We're going to deal with them.
00:08:24.000 And I know Canadians quite well.
00:08:26.000 And that is to my everlasting shame question of the day.
00:08:29.000 What's your favorite moment as far as the fail of these protesters in Minnesota right now?
00:08:37.000 Can I answer that question?
00:08:38.000 Please.
00:08:39.000 Captain Morgan, you've introduced yourself.
00:08:41.000 Hi.
00:08:41.000 I'm here.
00:08:42.000 My favorite part is when they get pepper sprayed or tear gassed, and then the only refuge they have is to get on the ground and their supporters will pour water on them and it soaks their entire body in eight-degree weather.
00:08:54.000 That is, that is, I love it.
00:08:56.000 Yeah.
00:08:57.000 It's fantastic.
00:08:58.000 You can't win.
00:09:00.000 They should bring some milk, but they can't do that because, oh, no, no, whole milk is being made great again.
00:09:04.000 We can't use milk.
00:09:05.000 So use some nice oat milk.
00:09:06.000 I think that might just pee on them. 1.00
00:09:09.000 I think that works.
00:09:10.000 It does.
00:09:10.000 Yeah.
00:09:11.000 Is that actually a thing with jellyfish?
00:09:13.000 I don't know.
00:09:13.000 I don't know.
00:09:13.000 Anyway, Friday, January 16th, that is today.
00:09:17.000 Today, tonight.
00:09:18.000 Big Laugh Comedy Club in Fort Worth, Texas.
00:09:20.000 Go out, support live comedy.
00:09:22.000 And, you know, it's always a fun show.
00:09:24.000 Not Feierstein on X. How are you, sir?
00:09:27.000 My favorite part of the Minneapolis riots and protests is black protesters protesting that the ICE officers are too damn thick. 0.95
00:09:27.000 I'm good. 0.95
00:09:35.000 Yes, that's true.
00:09:36.000 That's my favorite part. 0.83
00:09:37.000 Which, by the way, takes a significant degree of thickness for black people to protest. 0.89
00:09:42.000 Yeah. 0.97
00:09:43.000 Well, yeah.
00:09:44.000 Because they or lack of, therefore. 0.83
00:09:46.000 Oh, I thought you were saying that they were too damn thick.
00:09:48.000 No, they like that. 0.99
00:09:49.000 He's like, he can't protest because he's like, damn, she's thick. 0.99
00:09:52.000 Yeah, I know. 0.99
00:09:53.000 I can't keep my eyes off.
00:09:54.000 That's often.
00:09:56.000 That's a litmus test for me as to whether I'll protest or not is a level of tickness.
00:10:01.000 Okay.
00:10:01.000 Yeah.
00:10:02.000 Okay.
00:10:02.000 Yeah.
00:10:02.000 Sometimes I'll incorporate facets of dead Asto, but you know, these are technical terms.
00:10:07.000 Bro, it's a matrix with multiple vectors.
00:10:10.000 Well, you show up.
00:10:10.000 You make everybody feel bad anyway.
00:10:12.000 I do.
00:10:12.000 You turn around, they go, whoa, God, I better quit.
00:10:15.000 And if that's why I do okay with the colors.
00:10:20.000 If nature's kind, they'll take me in as one of their own.
00:10:23.000 Not anymore.
00:10:26.000 I've been watching a tribe down by Lake Minneton.
00:10:31.000 This is for the highlight reel.
00:10:32.000 Take it from the Friday show.
00:10:35.000 So, hey, you know what?
00:10:36.000 Let's just get right into it.
00:10:37.000 The ACLU put together an all-star cast to fight for, and I know what you're thinking, ACLU, American Civil Liberties Union.
00:10:46.000 Like, right to vote, no.
00:10:48.000 You know, right to peaceably assemble, no.
00:10:51.000 Right to practice your religion freely.
00:10:53.000 The ACLU has the all-star cast to fight for trans youth in sports.
00:10:53.000 No.
00:11:01.000 When you're young, you believe that you can do anything.
00:11:04.000 And then the world tries to set limits for you.
00:11:06.000 Tell you what's allowed.
00:11:08.000 What's normal?
00:11:08.000 Who you're supposed to be.
00:11:10.000 But on the field, the track, the court, here, you get to be exactly who you are.
00:11:15.000 Because at our core, we're still the kids who just want to play the go-big game changers.
00:11:20.000 The living, breathing fabric country.
00:11:23.000 Supporting trans youth isn't just about sports, it's about freedom on and off the field.
00:11:28.000 It's more than a game. 0.92
00:11:30.000 That one guy, too, looked like it would be like if Xerxes had a baby with pedophile American hustle. 0.89
00:11:37.000 That was a very bizarre. 0.83
00:11:38.000 And by the way, was that strange yet?
00:11:40.000 Oh, she's everywhere.
00:11:56.000 You know, that one guy.
00:11:59.000 The one guy looked like a female player on SNL playing somebody in the Sopranos or something. 0.97
00:12:04.000 Exactly.
00:12:05.000 With a bald cap and a fake mustache.
00:12:07.000 You and I both agreed.
00:12:08.000 There's some deja views.
00:12:10.000 Yeah, because I think I've seen that before.
00:12:12.000 And I think I know where.
00:12:13.000 It's actually, you guys were trolled.
00:12:16.000 This is, it's the newest Marvel Avengers trailer.
00:12:18.000 Oh.
00:12:20.000 When you're young, you believe that you can do anything.
00:12:23.000 And then the world tries to set limits for you.
00:12:25.000 Tell you what's allowed.
00:12:26.000 What's normal?
00:12:27.000 Who you're supposed to be.
00:12:29.000 But on the field, the track, the court, here, you get to be exactly who you are.
00:12:34.000 Because at our core, we're still the kids who just want to play the go big game changers.
00:12:39.000 The living, breathing fabric of this country.
00:12:42.000 Supporting trans youth isn't just about sports.
00:12:44.000 It's about freedom.
00:12:46.000 On and off the field.
00:12:47.000 It's more than a game.
00:12:57.000 Transgenders affirmed!
00:13:08.000 That's December 18th.
00:13:09.000 That's what he says.
00:13:12.000 Yeah.
00:13:12.000 We missed it.
00:13:13.000 Should have been Troon's Day. 0.96
00:13:15.000 Oh, I can't leave.
00:13:18.000 Admonish.
00:13:19.000 Admonish.
00:13:20.000 That's on me.
00:13:20.000 That's on me.
00:13:21.000 Yeah, it's on Steven.
00:13:23.000 No, no, no, no.
00:13:24.000 All right, comedy writer.
00:13:24.000 That's on news.
00:13:26.000 I get it.
00:13:27.000 I can't believe that I missed Troon's Day.
00:13:29.000 All right. 0.86
00:13:30.000 It's silly.
00:13:31.000 They said that no one was coming for your kids.
00:13:34.000 They often said, well, no one's talking about sports.
00:13:36.000 And here we are.
00:13:37.000 We all knew that this was going to happen.
00:13:39.000 And if you're wondering where we all went wrong, I'll give you my opinion.
00:13:43.000 Same-sex marriage.
00:13:44.000 That's what opened the door.
00:13:45.000 I talked about it then.
00:13:46.000 I stand by it now.
00:13:47.000 Maybe look back.
00:13:48.000 Let me ask you.
00:13:48.000 Do you look back and go, oof, yeah, I guess that is kind of, that was a watershed moment where we just said men and women are not really important.
00:13:56.000 Anyone can do anything, whether you're male, female.
00:13:58.000 Well, now you've just eliminated the lines of biological sex and gender to the point where, ah, two dads, ah, two moms, a daughter, or a son, whatever he wants.
00:14:08.000 And sure, my son slash is a daughter can play sports.
00:14:12.000 Otherwise, it's a violation of human rights.
00:14:15.000 We also allow this to happen.
00:14:16.000 I don't know if you remember this, when conservatives would be guilted when you would talk about same-sex marriage and you would talk about marriage laws.
00:14:21.000 And I think that people had reasonable arguments on both sides.
00:14:24.000 What was not reasonable is when they would compare it to interracial marriages.
00:14:28.000 They go, so you would have been, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:14:30.000 You want to compare an immutable characteristic to your preference of friction? 0.90
00:14:36.000 That is silly.
00:14:37.000 It is not a valid comparison. 0.96
00:14:40.000 Well, we've now said that it is.
00:14:42.000 We've declared that it is.
00:14:43.000 The left has, as a society, how do you undo that?
00:14:46.000 The answer is you can't.
00:14:47.000 You kind of have to be all in or all out.
00:14:50.000 And I'm all out, especially as it relates to trunes. 1.00
00:14:54.000 Now, anyone else?
00:14:57.000 I think.
00:14:58.000 We're going to go on to ice.
00:14:58.000 Okay.
00:14:59.000 Ice.
00:15:01.000 Stein tried to push him down some ice.
00:15:05.000 Speak of which, could we show Gerald's shirt real quick?
00:15:07.000 Yeah, I didn't see it.
00:15:09.000 He's wearing the ice ice baby shirt.
00:15:11.000 Oh, I like it.
00:15:13.000 I like it a lot.
00:15:14.000 No, you don't.
00:15:16.000 I like it as an actual LOL.
00:15:16.000 I don't take that.
00:15:18.000 Yo, stop and give him admonish.
00:15:21.000 You don't need to do that.
00:15:22.000 That's not necessary, though.
00:15:24.000 Okay.
00:15:26.000 I thought it was a fun shirt.
00:15:28.000 I'm old enough to know who Vanilla Ice is, though, so I understand.
00:15:32.000 I bet you were a big fan.
00:15:32.000 All right.
00:15:33.000 Yeah, I bet you were.
00:15:34.000 I want to hear it from the chat.
00:15:35.000 Yeah, I bet you when he hears dung dungum.
00:15:35.000 What do you guys think?
00:15:38.000 He's like, oh, I hope it's not you too. 0.98
00:15:40.000 I see a lot of gay emojis. 0.91
00:15:44.000 He hears dun He's like, this better not be under pressure. 0.97
00:15:47.000 It better not be under pressure.
00:15:48.000 I'm not going to hate queen every time.
00:15:51.000 I thought it was you two and queen.
00:15:52.000 Oh, it's Queen and Bowie.
00:15:53.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:15:53.000 Yeah.
00:15:54.000 Yeah.
00:15:54.000 Queen and Bowie.
00:15:55.000 Who, by the way, do we still have that side-by-side of Bowie yesterday, the Labyrinth?
00:15:57.000 Can that be pulled?
00:15:59.000 Spot on.
00:16:00.000 You know way too much about it.
00:16:01.000 Gerald has horrible judgment noodles.
00:16:03.000 I don't.
00:16:04.000 He prefers vanilla ice to my catalogue.
00:16:08.000 There it is.
00:16:10.000 Uncanny. 0.97
00:16:11.000 I just feel he's far less gay. 1.00
00:16:14.000 You've become so gay, Gerald. 1.00
00:16:16.000 Turn straight before it's too late. 1.00
00:16:20.000 I can see your nipples through your shirt, Gerald. 0.99
00:16:23.000 Well, good for you. 1.00
00:16:25.000 I saw his nipples looking hard as nibs could look. 1.00
00:16:31.000 This makes you look weird. 0.99
00:16:32.000 What could I do?
00:16:33.000 I think he looks cool.
00:16:34.000 Yeah, I don't think so.
00:16:35.000 Yeah, I think he looks cool.
00:16:36.000 Why is it featuring the Admotish shirt? 0.98
00:16:38.000 You remind me of the gay. 1.00
00:16:42.000 We like that shirt better. 0.99
00:16:44.000 You know what?
00:16:44.000 It's a good one.
00:16:45.000 Whatever.
00:16:46.000 Do what makes you feel good.
00:16:46.000 All right.
00:16:48.000 I was still scared of that junk Muppet lady in the closet in the labyrinth. 0.99
00:16:52.000 That scared me more than anything. 0.80
00:16:53.000 It's very weird.
00:16:54.000 Because you now took the other world and brought it into the real world where you're like, oh, they could live in my closet. 0.97
00:16:59.000 Screws with your head. 0.98
00:16:59.000 Yeah. 0.98
00:17:00.000 Plus, she looked like a feminist. 1.00
00:17:04.000 And even at a young age, you hated that.
00:17:06.000 Oh, you don't need a man, do you? 1.00
00:17:08.000 You're like, wait, yes, I do.
00:17:09.000 You're wrong about everything.
00:17:13.000 Now, this is Friday.
00:17:15.000 Okay, so ice.
00:17:16.000 Get it out of your side. 0.91
00:17:16.000 Ice. 0.91
00:17:18.000 Look, what are these people?
00:17:20.000 Ask yourself something right now when we're seeing these protests with ICE, these riots, these violent agitators.
00:17:26.000 Why?
00:17:28.000 Why are these people doing it?
00:17:31.000 What do they hope to gain?
00:17:32.000 So let's go through that.
00:17:33.000 Okay, what do they hope to gain?
00:17:35.000 The end game is what?
00:17:37.000 No deportations.
00:17:39.000 Okay?
00:17:40.000 I disagree with that.
00:17:41.000 Then, even if you agree with what they think they stand to gain, are the consequences worth it?
00:17:49.000 Are you willing to be pepper sprayed?
00:17:51.000 Are you willing to be blinded? 0.99
00:17:52.000 Are you willing to be shot?
00:17:54.000 Are you willing to have a permanent criminal record for, in Minneapolis, a group of people who've defrauded you and stolen money from your children, as we've seen with Somalians in Minnesota? 1.00
00:18:06.000 It's really hard for me to see a logical case for this.
00:18:11.000 It really is.
00:18:12.000 And I'm typically able to put myself in someone else's shoes, you know, usually men's sizes, even if they're a woman.
00:18:18.000 And I'm able to say, okay, I just, I don't, unless it's, you just hate this country.
00:18:23.000 And I've heard people say that we are actually the evil regime who need to be replaced, not Iran, not Venezuela. 0.98
00:18:30.000 And I think that's asinine. 0.97
00:18:31.000 That's my opinion. 0.98
00:18:32.000 I'll make the case for it.
00:18:33.000 Well, here's one person who actually, I guess, didn't take the time to ask those questions.
00:18:39.000 And this is how it ended up for him, his prize.
00:18:43.000 Well, can you tell us about your injuries now and the prognosis?
00:18:47.000 Will you be blind in that eye for life?
00:18:50.000 From what I've heard the doctors say and everyone else, yes, I will be blind for life.
00:18:55.000 And no one wants that.
00:18:57.000 But we don't want you assaulting officers.
00:19:00.000 My lower lid was cut up and they had to take skin from my temple to fix it.
00:19:06.000 There's a lot to it.
00:19:08.000 I don't remember all the things that they said.
00:19:10.000 I have fractures in my skull that they can't fix and I can't sneeze or cough because it's dangerous too.
00:19:16.000 I remember also when I shot, there was pepper in it and I had pepper down my throat.
00:19:21.000 It made it hard to breathe for a long time.
00:19:23.000 And they pulled a piece of plastic size of a nickel out of my eye.
00:19:27.000 They said I had shards of metal, glass, and plastic all throughout my eye and behind my eye and in my skull.
00:19:35.000 And they also said that I had a piece of strapnometal about a few millimeters away from my carotid artery.
00:19:40.000 And they said it was a miracle I survived because if it got any closer, if it hit that, I would have died that night.
00:19:47.000 Totally blind right now?
00:19:49.000 Yeah.
00:19:50.000 Nothing at all.
00:19:59.000 Poor taste?
00:20:01.000 Yes.
00:20:02.000 No, I don't think so.
00:20:04.000 But here's just some context.
00:20:06.000 People say, oh, it's just one of them.
00:20:07.000 They're just going out assaulting people.
