00:01:41.000 Glad to be with you.

00:01:51.000 Do I always have a lower third?

00:01:53.000 Yeah.

00:01:54.000 Oh, that's cool. 0.95

00:01:57.000 What the heck?

00:01:58.000 I try to not look at the monitor because I don't want to be Oprah where I'm always looking at myself and I watch CNN in there.

00:02:05.000 But anyway, sorry.

00:02:06.000 Hey, we're going to get to a lot today.

00:02:09.000 Doge, the Department of Government Efficiency.

00:02:12.000 Love it.

00:02:13.000 You've heard about this.

00:02:14.000 Elon and Vec are, it seems, are going to be heading this up.

00:02:17.000 And the left is losing their mind.

00:02:19.000 I think that, and I'll make the case today, a little bit of trolling, a little bit of fun, a little bit of, yep, let's ax this, go in with a hatchet, going with a buzzsaw is actually needed.

00:02:29.000 You can comment below if you disagree.

00:02:31.000 Also, we're going to get in today.

00:02:33.000 I've been watching a lot of I've been reading a lot of articles, and there's a reason that the left lost.

00:02:45.000 I don't want to make any overcorrections or gross generalizations or predictions, but there's a reason that they've lost, and it's not just the economy, to be clear. 0.99

00:02:55.000 I know people say it's the economy, stupid. 0.92

00:02:56.000 actually think even if the economy happened to be doing well, it still would not be enough to override the other cultural problems that they have. 0.99

00:03:06.000 And you know that poster right there, Andrew Breitbart.

00:03:08.000 There's a reason that he started Big Hollywood before any other website.

00:03:12.000 Everything is downstream from culture.

00:03:15.000 So we'll talk about that and more.

00:03:16.000 And let me know what you think about Elon Musk and Doge, the stuff going on there.

00:03:22.000 Also, Mattel made a really bad mistake.

00:03:24.000 A pornographic mistake.

00:03:25.000 We'll get to that in just a second.

00:03:26.000 How are you, Joe?

00:03:27.000 Morgan, Captain?

00:03:28.000 Morgan?

00:03:28.000 I'm good.

00:03:28.000 How are you?

00:03:30.000 What did you say?

00:03:31.000 YouTube dump!

00:03:32.000 No, no, no.

00:03:32.000 I just...

00:03:33.000 Come on.

00:03:34.000 Right now?

00:03:34.000 No, I meant Toolman.

00:03:36.000 If you see this.

00:03:37.000 Seriously?

00:03:37.000 Seriously.

00:03:39.000 Head on over to Rumble.

00:03:41.000 Weekdays, 10 a.m., including Fridays, by the way, and Rumble Premium is 100% more show.

00:03:44.000 I just wanted to ruin it.

00:03:46.000 I'm not as good as I was a minute ago, but fine.

00:03:49.000 And then, of course, when you hear this, you know him, you love him.

00:03:52.000 November 15th and 16th, Friday, Saturday, JP's Comedy Club, Gilbert, Arizona.

00:03:56.000 Still counting votes there.

00:03:57.000 How are you, Josh?

00:03:58.000 Good.

00:03:58.000 I'm actually going to be county votes when I get there.

00:04:00.000 Yeah, good.

00:04:01.000 Yeah, they've got a box of ballots at the airport for me.

00:04:03.000 It's a side gig, and it's a good gimmick on stage.

00:04:05.000 It doesn't pay, but it's rewarding.

00:04:07.000 No, it's fun for the audience.

00:04:09.000 I always find a little bit of tedious, menial tasks.

00:04:13.000 It works.

00:04:14.000 The crowd really likes it.

00:04:16.000 Hey, they eat it up.

00:04:17.000 I don't know if you know this, but Joe Biden is still alive.

00:04:19.000 What?

00:04:20.000 And this week was not kind to him.

00:04:23.000 So this brings us to our latest and really one of our final installments of this week in Biden.

00:04:29.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black. 0.98

00:04:33.000 President Biden, do you think that you can cut a hostage deal by the end of your term? do you think that you can cut a hostage deal Hold on, hold on.

00:04:52.000 I think you can get hit in the head by a camera behind you. 0.99

00:04:57.000 All right.

00:04:59.000 She ran an inspiring campaign and everyone got to see something that I learned early on to respect so much, her character.

00:05:09.000 She has a backbone like a ramrod. 0.95

00:05:11.000 She has great character.

00:05:12.000 True character.

00:05:13.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black. 0.98

00:05:18.000 By the way, he has used that term ramrod like many, many, many times.

00:05:21.000 Let us know below if you want us to put that into a montage.

00:05:24.000 It's intensely uncomfortable.

00:05:25.000 Peter calls himself that.

00:05:26.000 Yes, he calls himself the ramrod.

00:05:29.000 Mr.

00:05:30.000 Eminem, Minnie.

00:05:31.000 I'm receiving right now, as we were just running that, breaking news.

00:05:35.000 This just broke right here on X. All right, Captain Morgan and Noodles, can you bring this up?

00:05:45.000 You were saying that this was just announced?

00:05:47.000 Yep.

00:05:47.000 Okay.

00:05:49.000 I have loved connecting with all of you on Twitter and then on X for all of these years, but it's time for me to leave the platform.

00:05:56.000 I once believed that it was a place for honest debate and discussion, transparency and free speech, but I now feel it does not serve that purpose.

00:06:05.000 In addition, starting this Friday, November 15th, X is implementing new terms of service, which, among other things, states that, quote, all disputes be brought exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Texas or state courts located in Tarrant County, Texas, end quote.

00:06:24.000 Full terms of service can be found on my written statement on the X website.

00:06:28.000 Now, as the Washington Post recently reported on X's decision to change the terms, This, quote, ensures that such lawsuits will be heard in courthouses that are a hub for conservatives, which experts say could make it easier for X to shield itself from litigation and punish critics.

00:06:46.000 I think that speaks for itself.

00:06:49.000 You can find me on YouTube, at The Dominic Show, on TikTok, and Facebook.

00:06:54.000 Yes!

00:06:54.000 Hold on a second.

00:06:55.000 What he's really saying here is, on X, this may actually find itself in a pro-freedom of speech court.

00:07:02.000 Yes.

00:07:03.000 So I will be on YouTube, where they do the enforcing of the CDC of WhiteHouse.gov, and remove the like button just to try and push Joe Biden over the top.

00:07:12.000 I am leaving a free speech platform for a platform...

00:07:16.000 You know, probably has offered to grease the wheels to my channel a little bit.

00:07:20.000 You can't say that you're...

00:07:21.000 Have you been to the YouTube comment section? 1.00

00:07:24.000 It's Satan's asshole! 1.00

00:07:27.000 For now. 1.00

00:07:28.000 After Mexican food.

00:07:29.000 And he's leaving X. And it'll tie into our segment later.

00:07:33.000 This is why the left loses.

00:07:34.000 But hey, Mr.

00:07:36.000 Don Lemon, not sorry to see you go.

00:07:38.000 I get with just breaking news.

00:07:40.000 All right, let's move on to this really quickly.

00:07:47.000 Mattel made a pretty big mistake.

00:07:51.000 I don't know if you know this.

00:07:52.000 You probably saw this.

00:07:53.000 It happened a little earlier in the week.

00:07:54.000 There's an update.

00:07:55.000 There was an error on packaging for dolls promoting the movie adaptation of the musical Wicked.

00:08:01.000 What you're about to see with the clip.

00:08:02.000 Careful with your comments on how this lady looks.

00:08:05.000 I get it.

00:08:06.000 The film stars Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, who channeled their on-screen characters at the LA premiere over the weekend.

00:08:14.000 They also gave a thumbs up to the dolls being marketed in their likeness.

00:08:18.000 The dolls look adorable, but look at the packaging.

00:08:22.000 The website listed is wicked.com, which links to a pornographic website.

00:08:31.000 They have to cover this.

00:08:32.000 This is the way news has it.

00:08:34.000 Which links to a pornographic website.

00:08:37.000 Okay, what'd you see?

00:08:40.000 How long were you on it?

00:08:42.000 Well, according to my research, I spent per diem on an annual membership.

00:08:47.000 Yes.

00:08:48.000 And I have a penchant for feet.

00:08:50.000 And I'm thinking about my stepmom in a weird way.

00:08:52.000 Yes.

00:08:53.000 Also, my new favorite day is laundry day.

00:08:57.000 Back to you, Jim.

00:08:58.000 Everybody in research volunteered to look into this.

00:09:01.000 So instead of going to wickedmovie.com, which also sucks, it directed people to wicked.com, and wicked.com, the porn website, reported their highest traffic since 2012.

00:09:13.000 Oh, jeez.

00:09:15.000 That's good cross-promotion.

00:09:16.000 You know, it used to be...

00:09:18.000 Oh, no!

00:09:18.000 It used to be where whichever medium pornography, you may not know this historically, in media was the medium that was picked.

00:09:25.000 So for example, VHS, same thing with Blu-ray over HD DVD. If porn backed it, that kind of determined the industry because they had so much sway.

00:09:32.000 Now, one of the most powerful pornography corporations in the world is being beaten by a couple with an iPhone.

00:09:40.000 That's where we are at this point.

00:09:41.000 That's where we are, and it's just sort of the pornographic equivalent to YouTube.

00:09:44.000 Of course, this is not the first time that Mattel has been in hot water over a problematic product.

00:09:51.000 What did you do?

00:09:52.000 Get a new doll?

00:09:53.000 Oh, no.

00:09:55.000 Catty Cassie asked first. 0.99

00:09:57.000 Sure, because a doll can talk or something. 1.00

00:09:59.000 Shut the f*** up and brush my hair, b***h. 1.00

00:10:02.000 Okay, Daddy. 1.00

00:10:04.000 Well, I told you she could talk. 0.97

00:10:08.000 I just pulled this ring and she says 11 different things.

00:10:12.000 Make her say that again. 0.92

00:10:13.000 Maybe she will.

00:10:16.000 Part of the fun is, you never know what Sadie Cats will say next. 1.00

00:10:20.000 Get rid of this ginger f***ing it, bitch. 1.00

00:10:22.000 Her skin is so soft. 1.00

00:10:25.000 Hey, her hair feels real.

00:10:29.000 That's not I've always been a Motten Bradley guy.

00:10:55.000 Wow.

00:10:57.000 I'm a Hasbro guy myself.

00:10:59.000 Cassie's quite the anti-Semite. 1.00

00:11:00.000 And also, they had an air, they redirected to Porker Brothers, and that was a problem.

00:11:06.000 It actually wasn't a mistake.

00:11:07.000 That is, you know, synergy right there.

00:11:10.000 They're going to open Wicked Kingdom at Disney World soon.

00:11:14.000 Oh, God.

00:11:16.000 Yeah, you should go.

00:11:16.000 It's adults only.

00:11:17.000 At least Wicked.com is not as gay as WickedMovie.com. 1.00

00:11:21.000 I don't think there's anything gayer than a musical that's trying to understand the situation of the Wicked Witch.

00:11:24.000 I just associate it.

00:11:26.000 WickedMovie.com redirects to Good Will Hunting.

00:11:28.000 Yes.

00:11:30.000 That's wicked good, dude.

00:11:31.000 It's wicked, dude.

00:11:32.000 Hey, by the way, CrowderShop.com, we still have the Trump One, 4547.

00:11:36.000 You can go there, support the program, because there are very few other ways to, and we're not making the ad revenue on YouTube, and rightfully so.

00:11:43.000 We were demonetized, we should have been demonetized, and we accept it proudly.

00:11:46.000 Let's move on to...

00:11:47.000 Where is the badge of honor?

00:11:49.000 Government Efficiency Super Team Assembling.

00:11:53.000 Doge is the department right now that people are talking about.

00:11:55.000 It's Department of Government Efficiency.

00:11:58.000 I love that.

00:11:58.000 And what's funny is the left can't even fathom that this may be a thing.

00:12:02.000 I talked yesterday about baseline budgeting.

00:12:05.000 Once you expand government, you never get it back.

00:12:07.000 You never scale it back.

00:12:09.000 And last night, Donald Trump announced Elon Musk and Vivek would be teaming up.

00:12:14.000 They'll be involved with the Department of Government Efficiency.

00:12:16.000 He said this on X. He said...

00:12:18.000 I'm pleased to announce that the great Elon Musk, the great Elon Musk, working in conjunction with American patriot Vivek Ramazamana will lead the department of, it's not important, of government efficiency, DOGE for short.

00:12:36.000 To the moon.

00:12:37.000 They will work together to liberate our economy and make the U.S. government accountable to we the people.

00:12:44.000 I'm confident they will succeed.

00:12:46.000 Now...

00:12:48.000 Here's the only reason to me that someone could be in complete meltdown mode over this department means they don't agree with the concept.

00:12:57.000 And this is something that, of course, we fundamentally disagree.

00:13:01.000 There's no finding common ground.

00:13:03.000 When the left says we should only increase spending by this amount, by this multiple, and you have a good portion of the country who actually believes, and with good reason, that the government is far too expansive as it is, where do you find that common ground?

00:13:16.000 The The left will not cut down government size.

00:13:19.000 The left will not make any changes as it relates to government efficiency.

00:13:23.000 And let me, do you consider yourself a moderate?

00:13:26.000 Do you think that one can be a moderate and say, yeah, we actually need to downsize government?

00:13:31.000 Because to me, when I hear someone saying they're a moderate, I mean, well, I don't want to increase the size of government by as much as the next guy.

00:13:37.000 So that is the basis for why the left can't even comprehend this complete blind spot there in full cope.

00:13:46.000 Elon Musk suffered a humiliating demotion tonight by Donald Trump when Donald Trump announced that he would give Elon Musk a job that does not exist and will last at most 18 months.

00:14:01.000 Yeah, well we learned that, and this isn't that surprising to be honest, we knew that Elon Musk wasn't going to have some big cabinet secretary position.

00:14:09.000 The fact that Musk and Ramaswamy are trying to cut down on government inefficiency and yet it's basically a blue ribbon panel where they're soliciting ideas from the public.

00:14:19.000 Seems to me it's only going to slow things down.

00:14:21.000 Donald Trump is not looking at people based off of necessarily their credentials for each given position.

00:14:26.000 It's very much off of who has shown their loyalty.

00:14:30.000 I mean, whether it's Elon Musk, Kristi Noem, you know, across the board.

00:14:36.000 It does feel like a bit of a blue ribbon panel just to satisfy Musk.

00:14:39.000 Also, sort of the punchlines write themselves where it's about government efficiency and yet they have two people leading it.

00:14:49.000 The punchlines write themselves. 0.79

00:14:50.000 Okay, prick.

00:14:52.000 Write them.

00:14:52.000 Yes.

00:14:53.000 That's inefficient.

00:14:55.000 Ha ha.

00:14:55.000 And you know what?

00:14:56.000 First off, let me give you a quick fact.

00:14:58.000 This is exactly the position that Elon Musk wanted.

00:15:01.000 Yes.

00:15:01.000 And you know what?

00:15:01.000 It makes sense.

00:15:02.000 Hey, you have a guy, Donald Trump, who's saying, this is a vision for a new department.

00:15:06.000 Let's appoint a visionary.

00:15:08.000 In other words, no one even thought there needed to be a department to actually look at inefficiencies in the government.

00:15:13.000 Yes.

00:15:14.000 And so you pick the guy who has started things from scratch.

00:15:16.000 And you know why those in media?

00:15:17.000 You know why those in Hollywood?

00:15:18.000 This is the dirty little secret that people don't want to tell you.

00:15:21.000 You say, oh, Holly, weird.

00:15:22.000 People say, well, no, let's look at why they are millionaires, sometimes hundreds of millionaires, if that's a term.

00:15:27.000 And they're the only demographic of millionaires, of ultra-wealthy, who consistently lean left.

00:15:33.000 The reason for that is because they haven't had to employ anybody.

00:15:38.000 They've never had to start a business.

00:15:40.000 There's a huge difference between starting a business from the ground up, having to employ people, having to understand taxes, having to understand payroll taxes, balancing what kind of benefits you can provide to employees so that you can be competitive in the job marketplace while also balancing your checkbook.

00:15:54.000 Instead, you have a lot of people in this industry who are college-educated in media, in Hollywood not necessarily, and they're paid millions of dollars for something that God gave them, being good-looking.

00:16:04.000 Or having, yes, an actual skill, being a good actor, but that doesn't require any skill in understanding finance or business.

00:16:11.000 That's why you have business owners, period, lean right, Hollywood millionaires, lean left.

00:16:18.000 That's the only difference.

00:16:19.000 Never once signed the fronts of checks, aside from maybe an assistant.

00:16:22.000 Well, and Elon Musk, I mean, he's the guy who, what?

00:16:24.000 Twitter's still up and running, right?

00:16:25.000 It's X now, but it still works?

00:16:27.000 Okay, good.

00:16:27.000 He cut 80% of the staff.

00:16:29.000 The company's still doing just fine.

00:16:31.000 You may not like the ad block that they've got going on right now, but that has nothing to do with the size of the workforce.

00:16:36.000 Right.

00:16:37.000 Perfect guy to go in and do this.

00:16:38.000 And by the way, these guys, Elon Musk is trying to get us to Mars.

00:16:41.000 He's busy catching rockets.

00:16:42.000 So having Vivek go in there with him as well as an entrepreneur to see what they can find, it makes perfect sense.

00:16:48.000 And also saying, hey, I can only do this for 18 months because, I don't know, I'm trying to become the world's first trillionaire.

00:16:53.000 I'm a little busy right now, but I want to make sure that the government's a little bit more efficient.

00:16:56.000 And they're trying to dunk on him for that?

00:16:58.000 Well, think about it.

00:16:58.000 He goes, efficiency, and it requires two people.

00:17:01.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:17:02.000 How crazy is that?

00:17:03.000 Two people who likely won't even take a salary as opposed to over 70,000 new IRS employees.

00:17:08.000 Where were you on that?

00:17:10.000 Do you honestly believe that it couldn't have been two fewer?

00:17:13.000 There! 0.98

00:17:14.000 You just found the money for an entire department, assface. 1.00

00:17:19.000 I know it's childish. 0.98

00:17:20.000 It is a little.

00:17:21.000 Now, I'm going to get to some very specific examples because it's your money.

00:17:24.000 It's my money.

00:17:25.000 Don't you get aggravated when you pay those taxes?

00:17:27.000 You're like, ah, that's right.

00:17:28.000 I'm paying for these $70,000.

00:17:30.000 I hope I don't commit murder, which means I'm going to give you some examples of government inefficiency, of absurd spending, right?

00:17:37.000 And we know that we're talking about trillions and trillions of dollars in debt, where what's another trillion?

00:17:40.000 So I'm going to give you some very specific examples where hopefully we can find some common ground and say, yeah, yeah, okay, that's kind of beyond the pale.

00:17:48.000 But for context, We really have lost sight of the role of government.

00:17:53.000 And I've talked about this.

00:17:54.000 The role of government is effectively to keep its team, its people safe, meaning external threats.

00:18:00.000 That's where military is appropriate.

00:18:02.000 Internal threats, meaning some kind of regulating force to make sure that your rights are not infringed upon by your fellow citizen.

00:18:10.000 Outside of that, to make sure people are playing by the rules so they don't harm anyone else.

00:18:14.000 Outside of that, they keep their whistle in their pocket.

00:18:17.000 Like a hockey referee.

00:18:18.000 That's the analogy.

00:18:19.000 They don't need to be involved in everything.

00:18:21.000 That's the context.

00:18:22.000 You can say, okay, is this a legitimate purview of government?

00:18:24.000 All right.

00:18:24.000 That's where the conversation used to start.

00:18:27.000 We are so far beyond recognizing the scope.

00:18:32.000 I mean, you've heard the expression, too close to the forest to see the trees.

00:18:34.000 Let me give you some context, okay?

00:18:37.000 Think of the Boston Tea Party when people say, the Founding Fathers would have wanted it this way.

00:18:41.000 They started a war because of taxes on their morning drink.

00:18:45.000 Let me give you an apples-to-apples comparison as far as what the Founding Fathers would have thought.

00:18:50.000 Imagine your morning energy drink going up by two pennies in taxes, okay?

00:18:57.000 And so you start murdering people.

00:19:02.000 Which, by the way, actually happened at the gas station this morning where I went.

00:19:05.000 Yeah, I need to change neighborhoods.

00:19:06.000 Okay, well...

00:19:07.000 I mean, to be fair, the gas here was British.

00:19:10.000 Yes.

00:19:11.000 I mean, what are you...

00:19:12.000 The guy smiled and he saw it all.

00:19:15.000 And here's the thing, this is something too, the left, you guys may not remember this, the left loved Elon Musk.

00:19:21.000 He was the green card guy.

00:19:23.000 He was the darling of the left, come on.

00:19:24.000 They used to call them Elon bros or Musk bros.

00:19:27.000 And we used to make fun of him because I thought that he was accepting far too much in government subsidies.

00:19:31.000 He was pushing the green energy policy, right?

00:19:34.000 He benefited from a lot of these programs and a lot of these policies.

00:19:38.000 And I also thought he was pretty innovative.

00:19:40.000 Two things can be true at the same time.

00:19:41.000 The left loved him.

00:19:43.000 He was their darling.

00:19:44.000 This is just a few years ago, which tells you it doesn't matter what you do.

00:19:48.000 If you're a comedian, they just say, oh, you're not funny if you have the wrong views. 0.99

00:19:51.000 If you're a genius, no, no, actually, you're a dummy. 1.00

00:19:54.000 Here's proof. 0.99

00:19:55.000 Ladies and gentlemen, Elon Musk!

00:20:02.000 It's just three years ago.

00:20:03.000 ...basically asked if there was anything positive that the Trump administration has done.

00:20:06.000 And I want to tell our viewers your response.

00:20:09.000 You said, quote, I'm encouraged, in fact, by the fact that the then-president-elect met with Elon Musk, who is a true pioneer, does a lot of great work in my state with SpaceX, so I'm grateful to him for that.

00:20:19.000 Time magazine describes Musk as both clown and genius, the man who aspires to save our planet and get us a new one to inhabit.

00:20:28.000 It's perhaps no wonder Elon Musk was a source of inspiration for Robert Downey Jr.'s billionaire business magnate-cum-superhero Tony Stark.

00:20:35.000 Do you see Elon Musk then as a visionary?

00:20:38.000 Oh, without any doubt.

00:20:40.000 We'll do an extended segment on this tomorrow because a lot of people may not remember just how much they loved him and were pushing for him when he was benefiting from government subsidies.

00:20:49.000 You know, we were talking about this back when Elon Musk was still depending on government subsidies and dressing as Satan for the Metro Gala or Halloween, whatever it was.

00:20:57.000 I'm really glad that he's seen the light.

00:21:00.000 Was it the Metro Gala?

00:21:01.000 No, it's the Metro Gala.

00:21:02.000 That's the one that's in the subway.

00:21:04.000 You want to know, Gerald.

00:21:06.000 You know what?

00:21:06.000 I get an invite every year.

00:21:08.000 I even get a save the date.

00:21:10.000 To the Met?

00:21:11.000 No, to the Metro Gala.

00:21:12.000 To the Metro.

00:21:13.000 Oh, okay.

00:21:13.000 I was wondering why you weren't there.

00:21:15.000 It's hard to open the invitation to.

00:21:17.000 It's a little sticky.

00:21:18.000 Yeah, well.

00:21:19.000 Let me give you five examples here of insane government spending.

00:21:23.000 Again, to put this into context.

00:21:25.000 Start with number five.

00:21:26.000 Okay.

00:21:28.000 Weird science.

00:21:29.000 So, I don't know if you know this, there's $477,000 was used of your tax dollars to fund Fauci's transgender monkey study for people who don't remember this.

00:21:38.000 Now, that's not a lot of money.

00:21:39.000 What?

00:21:39.000 That's not a lot of money, but it adds up.

00:21:42.000 Especially when you add up to that, you, your tax dollars, and all references available at lightearthcoder.com, link in the description every day, we always do, $3 million to put a shrimp on a treadmill.

00:21:58.000 Now, at first, I thought it was worth every penny.

00:22:02.000 Yeah.

00:22:03.000 It's a sea roach.

00:22:05.000 But I don't know what we paid for because now the shrimp are still obese. 0.99

00:22:09.000 So it didn't work.

00:22:10.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:22:13.000 It's always like the little arms, always the little arms and the big belly. 0.81

00:22:15.000 And I know what all you people out there who work in sciences are going to say, well, this is actually really important.

00:22:20.000 It wasn't about the shrimp on the treadmill.

00:22:22.000 It wasn't a VO2 max thing.

00:22:23.000 It was about how they responded to cold water.

00:22:27.000 I could save you $3 million with two Home Depot buckets, could be Lowe's, two buckets, toss some ice in one, toss a shrimp in both buckets, and call it a day.

00:22:39.000 That's it.

00:22:40.000 And again, for context, when people say, well, you know, what is important is study the habitat.

00:22:44.000 Okay.

00:22:45.000 Imagine traveling back in time and telling our founding fathers, the Boston Tea Party people, right?

00:22:50.000 Telling them about this.

00:22:52.000 First off, they'd probably think you were a witch if you said $3 million.

00:22:55.000 They thought, that's more money that's ever existed.

00:22:57.000 Then you would have to explain to them why you care that shrimp may or may not like the cold.

00:23:02.000 And then you'd have to explain to them what a treadmill is.

00:23:05.000 And they would blow your head off immediately.

00:23:08.000 There would be zero hesitation.

00:23:10.000 Why don't they run outside?

00:23:11.000 Yes, yes.

00:23:13.000 Do these shrimps not have some sort of aquatic sidewalk?

00:23:16.000 You're telling me these fat people have these things in their house that they don't use?

00:23:19.000 Yes.

00:23:19.000 They have clothing on them.

00:23:21.000 What?

00:23:21.000 Wait, wait.

00:23:22.000 You need a machine to walk in the future?

00:23:24.000 Do people not have legs?

00:23:26.000 They use their legs to walk on this machine.

00:23:29.000 Have we replaced legs with shrimp legs?

00:23:32.000 I don't understand.

00:23:33.000 Why are you telling me our future is filled with shrimp people overlords? 1.00

00:23:37.000 Have you tried putting wigs on the shrimp?

00:23:39.000 Yes.

00:23:40.000 Make them look better.

00:23:41.000 There would be no way to explain this to them.

00:23:45.000 Taxes on tea versus $3 million for shrimp on a treadmill.

00:23:48.000 That is over 10 years, by the way.

00:23:50.000 It's over 10 years.

00:23:51.000 I don't want anybody fact-checking us.

00:23:52.000 Let me give you a few more.

00:23:54.000 Okay, how many years?

00:23:55.000 It's still so much money.

00:23:56.000 I know, I know.

00:23:57.000 You know how much endless shrimp that could get you at Red Lobster?

00:23:59.000 Yes, exactly.

00:24:00.000 Thanks for justifying, Gerald.

00:24:01.000 I wasn't justifying.

00:24:03.000 I was justifying.

00:24:03.000 Sure.

00:24:04.000 Take that money.

00:24:05.000 Go to Red Lobster during scampi season.

00:24:07.000 Is that still a season?

00:24:08.000 I don't know.

00:24:08.000 I don't think so.

00:24:08.000 Sure.

00:24:09.000 Yeah, they wasn't sure.

00:24:11.000 Number four.

00:24:12.000 Okay?

00:24:14.000 Five billion dollars to build seven electric vehicle charging stations.

00:24:19.000 Seven.

00:24:21.000 Five billion dollars to build seven.

00:24:24.000 To give you an idea...

00:24:26.000 Tesla, the guy they hate, Elon Musk, who I believe did not get the contract for the giant supercharger, or sorry, the electric vehicle charging stations.

00:24:34.000 Tesla superchargers cost about $175,000 each, or $28,500 for those superchargers, I believe.

00:24:41.000 Or sorry, you could get $28,500 superchargers for that $5 billion.

00:24:46.000 As opposed to, so that's more than seven.

00:24:47.000 As opposed to seven.

00:24:48.000 It's close.

00:24:49.000 So government, seven, Elon Musk dummy efficiency, $28,000.

00:24:56.000 If only we had an apples to apples.

00:24:58.000 It couldn't be more clear.

00:25:01.000 What's he going to do?

00:25:02.000 I don't know.

00:25:03.000 Maybe start with creating 28,000 extra charging stations for the price that you're already paying.

00:25:09.000 28,493, Stephen.

00:25:11.000 Yes, exactly.

00:25:12.000 I'm sorry.

00:25:13.000 Well, we run it up.

00:25:15.000 I think he can make it happen.

00:25:16.000 All references available.

00:25:17.000 Link in the description.

00:25:19.000 28,500 for 5 billion.

00:25:20.000 Elon Musk in charge.

00:25:21.000 Government, 7.

00:25:22.000 Let's go to number 3.

00:25:24.000 I wasn't signaling through.

00:25:25.000 I was just doing this with my hands.

00:25:26.000 I know this is three.

00:25:28.000 $42 billion your government spent on rural broadband that connected nobody to the internet.

00:25:37.000 What?

00:25:38.000 That can't be right.

00:25:38.000 Nobody connected to the internet.

00:25:40.000 Zero people?

00:25:41.000 Did they not bring it to homes?

00:25:42.000 Again, if only we had a comparison.

00:25:44.000 Have you heard of Starlink?

00:25:47.000 Oh, it's almost shaping up here.

00:25:48.000 Oh, this makes a little sense.

00:25:50.000 Okay, we're spending billions, what, on charging stations?

00:25:53.000 Hey, you know what?

00:25:53.000 The left, if you really want us to move to electric vehicles, which is dumb, but you want us to, no one else is going to be able to do it, you know, huh?

00:26:01.000 No one else was able to do it outside of Elon Musk.

00:26:03.000 And you chased him out of California.

00:26:06.000 The electric car guy had to leave California.

00:26:09.000 And now you're saying it's ridiculous that the electric car guy could maybe be in charge of government efficiency when they're spending $5 billion for seven charging stations and $42 billion on rural broadband that helped nobody.

00:26:25.000 We now have two specific examples that are in just that man's wheelhouse.

00:26:29.000 And I wasn't even planning on this. 0.91

00:26:30.000 I was just planning on picking the most shitty examples of government spending. 0.67

00:26:35.000 No internet at all. 0.92

00:26:36.000 Which was tough luck for South Dakota's Blue Balls County.

00:26:39.000 They are still...

00:26:40.000 I just have to look at the wicked box set.

00:26:43.000 Farmers only.

00:26:44.000 I guess you'll use dial-up.

00:26:46.000 Yeah, where'd that money go?

00:26:47.000 They gotta go north.

00:26:48.000 Here's number two.

00:26:49.000 Five billion dollars for 60 electric school buses.

00:26:52.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:26:52.000 Five billion dollars. 0.87

00:26:54.000 These are just examples.

00:26:55.000 And here's a reason for...

00:26:56.000 That's another one in Elon Musk.

00:26:57.000 Like, ring, ring, yes.

00:26:58.000 Can you solve three of the biggest wastes of money we've ever had in government?

00:27:01.000 Yes.

00:27:02.000 Okay, bye.

00:27:02.000 Right.

00:27:03.000 It's done.

00:27:03.000 So if we have 60 buses, seven chargers, that's...

00:27:08.000 Nope.

00:27:09.000 A waste of money.

00:27:10.000 That's $10 billion is what it is.

00:27:12.000 And depending where you put them, the people who need to charge...

00:27:15.000 When you have internet to find out where the chargers are.

00:27:17.000 Nothing would work.

00:27:18.000 It doesn't make sense.

00:27:18.000 You're right.

00:27:20.000 Number one, and this is a big issue here, is these giant no-bid contracts.

00:27:23.000 This is a fundamental problem with government.

00:27:25.000 The left used to hate it when they bitched about Halliburton and the Chinese, but about 45% of government contracts basically have only one bid.

00:27:32.000 Wow.

00:27:33.000 Right?

00:27:33.000 So it's pretty much a guarantee.

00:27:34.000 So Boeing, to give you an example, they overcharged $4.3 million on spare parts, including an $8,000 markup On aircraft.

00:27:43.000 I know what you're thinking.

00:27:43.000 Aircraft.

00:27:44.000 Something like aircraft.

00:27:45.000 I don't know.

00:27:45.000 The engine.

00:27:46.000 No.

00:27:46.000 Soap dispensers.

00:27:48.000 Have you ever used soap on an airplane in your life?

00:27:51.000 No.

00:27:51.000 Yes.

00:27:52.000 I go in, I touch everything, and I roll the dice.

00:27:55.000 No, no.

00:27:55.000 You just use hand sanitizer after you get out of it.

00:27:58.000 No.

00:27:58.000 You use soap and there's a whole sink, Gerald.

00:28:00.000 I understand that.

00:28:01.000 It was a civilized society thing.

00:28:02.000 I'm telling you, I don't use any of it because the ladies love a man who lives dangerously. 0.99

00:28:05.000 I go in, I lick the disposable razor.

00:28:09.000 I've never...

00:28:09.000 Never used thing and I just go back out and I say, yeah, you know what?

00:28:12.000 I'll have my complimentary cocktail.

00:28:15.000 I said an economy plus.

00:28:16.000 If I get out of there alive, I'm happy.

00:28:18.000 You ever try to squeeze in one of those at 6'4"?

00:28:19.000 Yes.

00:28:20.000 I can only imagine.

00:28:22.000 $8,000 markup on soap dispensers.

00:28:25.000 And again, remember Halliburton?

00:28:27.000 I'm sorry, 8,000%.

00:28:28.000 Did I say dollars before?

00:28:30.000 I said percent.

00:28:30.000 Which is probably more.

00:28:32.000 I'm sorry.

00:28:33.000 I'm sorry.

00:28:34.000 It's percent.

00:28:34.000 8,000%.

00:28:35.000 Admonish me.

00:28:36.000 Which is worse, by the way.

00:28:37.000 Of course it's worse.

00:28:38.000 Yes.

00:28:38.000 Of course it's worse.

00:28:41.000 And remember, Halliburton got $7 billion in no-bid contracts with the Iraq War, right?

00:28:46.000 They had these emergency repairs.

00:28:47.000 They were able to do them in Iraq's oil infrastructure.

00:28:50.000 Don't worry, they love the Cheneys now on the left.

00:28:51.000 It's fine.

00:28:51.000 Everything's good.

00:28:52.000 For eight years of my life, the only word I heard from Democrats was Halliburton.

00:28:56.000 Exactly.

00:28:57.000 That's it.

00:28:58.000 It was like a Chetty Cathy doll whose cord was broken.

00:29:02.000 Halliburton!

00:29:02.000 You're like, well, hold on a second, what about locator?

00:29:04.000 Halliburton!

00:29:04.000 You're like, alright, fine.

00:29:05.000 There's a snake in my Halliburton!

00:29:07.000 Yes, exactly!

00:29:11.000 You're my best Halliburton!

00:29:13.000 Okay, it's enough.

00:29:15.000 It's enough.

00:29:16.000 And this is the thing.

00:29:17.000 This kind of...

00:29:18.000 And you can comment below what you think are the worst examples.

00:29:22.000 Or really, the best examples in this scenario.

00:29:24.000 And I'll give you a couple of examples of how I actually think...

00:29:27.000 We could change this.

00:29:28.000 Donald Trump has a real opportunity.

00:29:29.000 Sometimes you think it's more complicated than it is.

00:29:31.000 It's really not.

00:29:32.000 Hey, we're spending too much.

00:29:33.000 Can we reduce spending?

00:29:34.000 The answer as it relates to government spending is 100% of the time, yes.

00:29:39.000 There is no doubt that you could do it more efficiently.

00:29:42.000 You could point Do a mental exercise.

00:29:45.000 Think of the entire government in front of you, the entire federal government, under the legitimate purview of the executive branch.

00:29:52.000 Anything?

00:29:53.000 Think of, okay, could we make this more efficient?

00:29:56.000 Point at anything.

00:29:56.000 Yes!

00:29:58.000 That's the answer.

00:29:59.000 It's just, could you reduce it by 99%?

00:30:04.000 In which case you're looking at an 8,000% markup for soap dispensers from Boeing.

00:30:08.000 Could you make it more efficient by reducing 50% waste?

00:30:11.000 It just comes down to what percentage.

00:30:14.000 And I mean this.

00:30:15.000 If there could be a challenge, I bet you Donald Trump, I bet you Doge could go into any department of government and make it at most half.

00:30:23.000 And you would not be able to discern the difference in your day-to-day function.

00:30:27.000 Nobody would.

00:30:28.000 Government spending is exactly what infuriates Donald Trump's new press secretary, Nick DiPaolo.

00:30:33.000 If you could just talk broadly about what Trump has also said about making Musk the head of a new government efficiency commission.

00:30:45.000 Does the White House see that as a conflict of interest given the fact that Musk's companies have so many contracts with government agencies and potentially given the power to regulate the agencies that hold sway over his own company?

00:30:57.000 You don't have a problem with Honeywell, people who make missiles and stuff.

00:31:01.000 You're only bothered when it's Trump. 0.95

00:31:04.000 I mean, it's a silly question. 0.70

00:31:07.000 What was the specific question?

00:31:08.000 Anybody paying attention?

00:31:09.000 I fell asleep on that.

00:31:11.000 Does the White House see that as a conflict of interest, given the fact that Musk's companies have so many contracts with government agencies?

00:31:18.000 Can I ask you a question?

00:31:19.000 Elon Musk, you know what he does for fun?

00:31:21.000 He builds rockets.

00:31:23.000 He doesn't only shoot them off, he catches them on the way back.

00:31:26.000 When's the last time you caught something, a rocket, on the way back?

00:31:29.000 Like, maybe in a fight with your husband in the bedroom?

00:31:31.000 Whip that thing at you. 0.99

00:31:32.000 How can you have a problem with it?

00:31:34.000 That's what he does.

00:31:35.000 Elon Musk, look at all his companies.

00:31:37.000 They're a fine machine.

00:31:39.000 There's hardly any fat on them.

00:31:41.000 You realize the United States of America is a corporation.

00:31:44.000 You're the ones who always say that.

00:31:46.000 It's all about money, money, money.

00:31:47.000 Yeah, it is.

00:31:48.000 Who better than Elon Musk?

00:31:50.000 Look at the red tape.

00:31:51.000 Do you know we spent $450,000 last year to see how fast shrimp run on a treadmill?

00:31:57.000 That's an actual...

00:31:58.000 I didn't make that up.

00:31:59.000 And not a fried shrimp, an actual shrimp.

00:32:02.000 Not boiled, not peeled and deveined.

00:32:05.000 A shrimp running on a...

00:32:07.000 I didn't make that up.

00:32:08.000 Running on a treadmill.

00:32:09.000 You guys spent money on that.

00:32:11.000 So if Elon comes in and says, that's a waste of money, you're going to argue with that?

00:32:14.000 What conflict of interest?

00:32:16.000 Corporations and the American government work hand in hand.

00:32:19.000 Well, since Obama got in.

00:32:20.000 By the way, that's how socialism works.

00:32:22.000 Y'all should read more.

00:32:24.000 I read a lot.

00:32:25.000 Not as much as Tim Walts, but I don't really care what Cub Scouts wear under their suits.

00:32:30.000 It needs to happen.

00:32:37.000 Here are a few suggestions, and I'd love to hear yours below. 1.00

00:32:41.000 Crowdsourcing, or as the left says, they refer to it as stupid. 1.00

00:32:44.000 Because you're dumb. 1.00

00:32:45.000 You're so dumb that you voted for the president. 1.00

00:32:47.000 They really do revile you. 1.00

00:32:50.000 A few suggestions.

00:32:50.000 Okay, number one, no more no-bid contracts.

00:32:54.000 Okay, no more.

00:32:55.000 Just only open-bid contracts where everyone can bid to try and improve government efficiency.

00:32:59.000 Guarantee you there are plenty of companies out there who could do a better job on, again, point to any project, point to any service.

00:33:06.000 Number two, performance-based research.

00:33:09.000 Look, we may or may not learn some stuff regarding shrimp when we put them on a treadmill in cold and slightly warmer water, but you have to prove that it has to some degree helped save humanity.

00:33:21.000 Otherwise, you pay for it yourself.

00:33:23.000 And number three, an at-will firing policy.

00:33:26.000 We need that in government.

00:33:27.000 No more people who are installed.

00:33:29.000 That's the swamp.

00:33:30.000 The Fauci's of the world.

00:33:31.000 Fauci would have been fired anywhere else in the private sector for his performance on AIDS. This is a man who said that a child could catch AIDS in his house.

00:33:39.000 with his parents from touching the same objects, cereal boxes, whatever the hell it was. 0.66

00:33:43.000 You need to be able to fire people like that.

00:33:46.000 People get into government, and then it's just a matter of how much of a raise they get that outpaces the private sector.

00:33:53.000 And by the way, it also sometimes makes the private sector incapable of competing.

00:33:57.000 So no more closed bid contracts, only open bid government contracts, performance-based research.

00:34:02.000 You have to prove how you have benefited this country and our citizens specifically and an at-will firing policy.

00:34:08.000 That's a starting bit.

00:34:09.000 Yeah, I like it.

00:34:10.000 Also, government should be springing to buy everyone a premium subscription to Gerald's OnlyFans.

00:34:15.000 Wait, what?

00:34:16.000 Yep.

00:34:16.000 Oh, yeah!

00:34:18.000 That is not real.

00:34:19.000 I don't want to have to pay for that anymore. 0.82

00:34:20.000 It's educational and disgusting.

00:34:22.000 It's free, actually.

00:34:24.000 It's time for this week's taste test.

00:34:26.000 All right, what's on the menu today?

00:34:37.000 A 1775 Dark Roast Peaberry.

00:34:39.000 Hold on a second, I don't believe we can hear you there.

00:34:40.000 Can you move forward?

00:34:42.000 Yeah, oh boy, it's worse in the light.

00:34:44.000 Okay.

00:34:45.000 It's a 1775 Dark Roast Peaberry.

00:34:47.000 Oh, wow, can you bring it over here?

00:34:49.000 I believe you gave me a bag here, so...

00:34:50.000 Oh, okay.

00:34:51.000 You look very nice.

00:34:52.000 You do?

00:34:53.000 Well, that really does...

00:34:56.000 That smells delicious.

00:34:58.000 Oh, yeah.

00:34:59.000 Oh, that's great.

00:35:01.000 Yeah.

00:35:02.000 Oh, this tastes like freedom is what it tastes like.

00:35:04.000 It does.

00:35:04.000 What are you saying?

00:35:05.000 Mine's frozen solid. 0.96

00:35:06.000 What the heck?

00:35:07.000 What do you guys... 0.96

00:35:08.000 Yeah, I don't...

00:35:08.000 You know, you really...

00:35:09.000 Gerald, you know how to ruin...

00:35:11.000 You're ruining a moment.

00:35:12.000 And this is a sponsor.

00:35:14.000 Yeah, you've ruined everything, Gerald. 0.99

00:35:15.000 You're the worst.

00:35:18.000 The thing is, this smells really good, but I don't know how long it was sitting out there. 0.61

00:35:30.000 It kind of tastes like he put his finger in it.

00:35:31.000 Yeah, it does.

00:35:33.000 Also, that was after Gerald's OnlyFans.

00:35:34.000 I like it.

00:35:37.000 And this is what we use here.

00:35:40.000 We actually ran out because we've been using way too much.

00:35:43.000 1775 coffee.

00:35:45.000 Official coffee of Rumble.

00:35:47.000 And unlike other...

00:35:50.000 They actually mean it.

00:35:51.000 You're not going to find them giving to Democratic candidates.

00:35:55.000 1775coffee.com slash Crowder.

00:35:56.000 Use the promo code Crowder for 10% off.

00:35:58.000 They roast it.

00:35:59.000 They ship it.

00:36:00.000 They love your country.

00:36:01.000 And their coffee's better.

00:36:02.000 And they also, by the way, deliver it in bigger bags.

00:36:04.000 And they have the Roast Aid on there, too.

00:36:06.000 Those are on there every time.

00:36:07.000 And you hate most coffees.

00:36:08.000 You love this.

00:36:09.000 Yeah, most coffees.

00:36:10.000 And I'm going to tell you, as someone who got really, really nerdy into coffee, what's good with it, if you just want a really good drinkable coffee, but you don't want to have to sit there and go, oh, well, this clearly comes from a high altitude and low moisture. 0.95

00:36:21.000 Just shut up. 1.00

00:36:22.000 Is the coffee good? 1.00

00:36:22.000 Is it not good? 1.00

00:36:23.000 There is.

00:36:25.000 Speaking of low moisture, is that really frozen?

00:36:27.000 Yes!

00:36:27.000 Let me see.

00:36:28.000 What do you mean, let me see?

00:36:30.000 Well, it doesn't look frozen anymore.

00:36:32.000 Well, turn it upside down like a Dairy Queen. 0.99

00:36:34.000 I don't know that I can do that.

00:36:36.000 There's a little bit of liquid.

00:36:37.000 They've had it out for just a minute, but look.

00:36:39.000 Here we go.

00:36:39.000 Look, you can see the ice.

00:36:41.000 Oh, okay.

00:36:41.000 You weren't laying.

00:36:43.000 It's actually frozen.

00:36:45.000 Wow.

00:36:45.000 I just spilled some coffee.

00:36:46.000 All right.

00:36:47.000 Let's get to...

00:36:48.000 Don't stick your tongue on frozen things, even in Texas.

00:36:50.000 I know.

00:36:51.000 Every boy wants to try it, but in Texas, it's just mostly chilled.

00:36:54.000 Let's get to this here right now, because I've been watching a lot of leftist news, and typically, if you look at our references every day, we use liberal sources wherever we can, unless it's an original story.

00:37:05.000 Which we'll get to, by the way.

00:37:06.000 We have a Mug Club undercover and exclusive here today.

00:37:10.000 The left, they keep trying to wrap their brain around why they lost.

00:37:16.000 And it seems that you have some people where there's a little glimmer of, oh, okay, maybe they get it, and then they descend back into madness.

00:37:25.000 I don't know that they can correct, of course, and I know that people will say it's the economy and it's immigration. 0.96

00:37:30.000 Those are absolutely probably most important things.

00:37:34.000 In maybe the voting booth once every four years.

00:37:37.000 But the cumulative effect of culture, and the left will try and silence you and say, oh, the conservatives with their fabricated culture wars.

00:37:44.000 When they say that, it's because they're losing.

00:37:46.000 It's because they're losing the culture wars.

00:37:48.000 They're losing the culture wars in wanting to censor views with which they disagree.

00:37:53.000 They're losing the culture wars and saying that male and female are no longer a thing. 0.99

00:37:57.000 They're losing the culture wars when Joe Rogan has Donald Trump on and it humanizes the man they accused of being Hitler.

00:38:04.000 And CNN says, we need our own Joe Rogan and they can't do it.

00:38:08.000 Let's be really, really clear.

00:38:09.000 They're losing the culture wars, which they have dominated for a very long time.

00:38:12.000 And that's why Gen Z, young Gen Z males broke for Trump.

00:38:16.000 That's unheard of.

00:38:17.000 It's never happened in this country.

00:38:19.000 I believe outside of perhaps Nixon because he ran on ending the draft.

00:38:23.000 and people left McGovern in record numbers.

00:38:25.000 But still, that was an exception.

00:38:27.000 This is just, they liked Trump better, and they're tired of the culture that we are experiencing.

00:38:31.000 Comment below if you sense that, if you feel that.

00:38:34.000 I've been here since 2007.

00:38:36.000 There were no conservatives on social media, on YouTube.

00:38:39.000 There was no Twitter.

00:38:40.000 There was no Facebook at that point in time.

00:38:42.000 So, it's only been a week since the election.

00:38:45.000 Let's just check in with the left to see if they're finally getting it.

00:38:49.000 A lot of you are wondering how it could be possible that Kamala Harris lost every swing state, but so many statewide Democrats won.

00:38:58.000 She had momentum.

00:38:59.000 She had the women's vote from Roe v. 1.00

00:39:02.000 Wade.

00:39:03.000 She had young voters. 0.64

00:39:05.000 She had crossover voters from the Republican Party.

00:39:10.000 Not all of those things could be wrong, right?

00:39:12.000 Well, all of those things were wrong.

00:39:14.000 For months, Democrats have been saying, how is this even close?

00:39:18.000 And they're right.

00:39:19.000 It wasn't.

00:39:20.000 You're telling me, Stephanie, that all of these people who believe that their lives are, that bread is too high and eggs are too high, that they voted for a convicted felon.

00:39:31.000 There were many headlines here.

00:39:32.000 There is sexism.

00:39:33.000 There's racism.

00:39:34.000 All of that is true.

00:39:36.000 How did the guy running for cop troller get more votes than Kamala Harris? 0.99

00:39:43.000 Might want to look into that comptroller.

00:39:46.000 I don't think you made the point you think you made.

00:39:48.000 No!

00:39:50.000 They can't comprehend it.

00:39:51.000 And by the way, for more proof, we actually had one of our undercover journalists infiltrate a recent Zoom meeting where Democrat activists were lamenting why Kamala lost.

00:40:00.000 And again, they keep making the points they don't think they're making.

00:40:03.000 making this is my club undercover exclusive and here is the painful but i don't want to jump in i want you to see it in its context uh undercover zoom call

00:40:20.000 They didn't talk about the importance of, like, I could probably maybe find some more reports on this, but, I mean, the wrong track numbers for the The economy or the way the country's going was like 70-30 against anti you know like nobody like I'm warning Joe they didn't talk about that about

00:40:50.000 the American public we're not happy I mean that those are the kinds of things that really really I think we need to at least bring those things up because during the at the end of the election I'm like hey guys We really need to be hammering the economy and different kinds of security issues.

00:41:11.000 Looking into the voting itself, people have been posting different things that have been happening.

00:41:20.000 They kind of wonder whether this is really as much as a big sweep as it was and whether there was some programming that was causing a glitch or whatever.

00:41:35.000 I know someone was helping out with a voter at a voting polling place and they ran out of ballots.

00:41:45.000 So for three hours they had to wait and find out what to do and they finally made copies and allowed people to vote.

00:41:54.000 But people had to wait three hours for that.

00:41:57.000 And there was other funny kind of stuff going on in different polling places and different organizations and people Really, the other thing people are questioning is, a lot of people voted a Democrat down-ballot, but then they voted for Trump.

00:42:14.000 And people are wondering, now really?

00:42:16.000 A Democrat would vote Democrat down-ballot, but the top ticket, they wouldn't?

00:42:22.000 I'm just wondering if there's any real serious effort to look into other such things.

00:42:30.000 Yes, please look into the voting machines.

00:42:33.000 Voter ID. Remember, I just want to be really clear.

00:42:36.000 We do not discourage you from looking into any of this or filing lawsuits, petitions, audits.

00:42:43.000 January 6th is your last day, so make sure you make your voices heard.

00:42:46.000 Please do, yes.

00:42:47.000 Look, if you want to make your voices heard, emphatically, January 6th is a good day.

00:42:53.000 I know it's the 20th this year, but you know...

00:42:54.000 I don't know, 6th is when they, you know, certify the election, and the 20th is when they do the inauguration.

00:42:59.000 That's right, when they do the inauguration.

00:42:59.000 It's your last shot, guys, if you want to make your voices peacefully and peaceful.

00:43:02.000 January 6th.

00:43:05.000 By the way, it is funny to see them baffled.

00:43:08.000 They're not only baffled, they can't string a sentence together.

00:43:11.000 No, they obviously don't.

00:43:13.000 They're not capable of a complex thought.

00:43:15.000 They can't even figure out how somebody could vote for one person for president and not for down.

00:43:18.000 Like, I did the same thing, you know?

00:43:20.000 Well, one person.

00:43:21.000 One person.

00:43:22.000 I voted for a Democrat because the other one was a lady. 1.00

00:43:27.000 What am I supposed to do, guys?

00:43:30.000 I believe in the secret ballot, but there was one person I didn't vote for.

00:43:34.000 I understand that.

00:43:35.000 That's okay.

00:43:36.000 But that's how unpopular your candidate was.

00:43:38.000 So this should be the message.

00:43:40.000 Wow!

00:43:40.000 She's so unpopular.

00:43:41.000 They'll vote for the Democrat in the House, a Democrat in the Senate, and get to the top of the ticket and be like, no, I'm not voting for her.

00:43:47.000 I'm voting for Donald Trump.

00:43:48.000 Here's the thing, too.

00:43:50.000 I think politics has changed quite a bit.

00:43:52.000 Donald Trump has been a lightning rod here.

00:43:56.000 I've been very open about this in the primaries, was not a fan.

00:44:00.000 In 15?

00:44:01.000 Yeah, in 15, I was not.

00:44:02.000 And then, of course, supported the Republican candidate on a national election.

00:44:05.000 But he was far more effective than I anticipated.

00:44:10.000 He has served a purpose that no other president, I genuinely believe, could as a lightning rod.

00:44:15.000 And that he has said the things that many Americans believe.

00:44:17.000 And I'm not talking about the bombastic things, but many things.

00:44:19.000 Like, hey, these other countries aren't as good as America.

00:44:21.000 Americans go, yeah, I believe that.

00:44:22.000 Hey, we don't go into these countries unless we take the oil.

00:44:24.000 Americans go, we're not taking the oil?

00:44:26.000 Hey, we need to build a wall.

00:44:27.000 Oh, you mean we don't have a wall?

00:44:28.000 Right?

00:44:28.000 This is what the response has been, and the left can't understand it.

00:44:32.000 it.

00:44:32.000 As far as politics, too, the left had way more money, over a billion dollars spent nationally.

00:44:38.000 The left had a machine.

00:44:39.000 Does anyone actually think Joe Biden was in charge of anything?

00:44:42.000 Anyone actually think Kamala Harris was in charge of anything? 0.99

00:44:44.000 Joe Biden doesn't even think that.

00:44:45.000 No.

00:44:46.000 They had a well-oiled machine, tons of money, better ground game, and far more favorable media coverage, not to mention social media, with the exception, of course, of Rumble and X, who are really making some headway.

00:44:58.000 So there's no reason, if you were to look at the metrics, and they had about as effective of a campaign in convincing Americans that the economy was going well, as Barack Obama did in his second term against Mitt Romney.

00:45:09.000 In other words, if enough Americans bought that, it's still Wouldn't change what Donald Trump brought to the table, and that is a cultural shift.

00:45:19.000 Just look at the polls that we see where most Americans, including Hispanic Americans, support some form of mass deportation.

00:45:27.000 Contrast that with 2016, where people actually, my God, believe Donald Trump was racist when he was saying they're not sending their best, or he said these people are animals, clearly referring to MS-13.

00:45:36.000 He still had Americans buy it back then.

00:45:38.000 They're not buying it now.

00:45:40.000 They're not. 0.99

00:45:41.000 Culturally, they are so out of touch, and I don't know if they can right that shit. 0.99

00:45:45.000 I'm not saying that you won't see a swing back in the midterms. 0.99

00:45:48.000 Politically, I am saying that the Democrat Party...

00:45:50.000 Remember, people used to have the argument where Democrats would say, well, everyone has gone further right now.

00:45:56.000 Democrats are moderate.

00:45:57.000 Nope, nope, nope, nope.

00:45:58.000 Everyone has gone left.

00:45:59.000 It's just that the left has gone crazy, left.

00:46:01.000 You do not see the amount of people leaving the Republican Party that you do en masse with the Democrat Party.

00:46:07.000 You see some never-Trumpers, but it's not the same thing.

00:46:08.000 They're not leaving on principle.

00:46:10.000 Let me give you some examples here of the fallout beyond the election and why you are playing a huge role.

00:46:15.000 Rumble Premium, by the way, only exists because of you, Mug Club. 1.00

00:46:18.000 We started this, election night 2016.

00:46:20.000 We thought, we'll get a few hundred, we'll get a few thousand people.

00:46:23.000 You're talking about Six figures.

00:46:25.000 Membership.

00:46:26.000 That's why Rumble Premium is now a thing.

00:46:27.000 $99 a year, $9.99 a month.

00:46:29.000 Mug Club is now Rumble Premium.

00:46:31.000 Rumble Premium is Mug Club, where you can continue watching today.

00:46:33.000 Boom.

00:46:35.000 Nothing changes.

00:46:36.000 You can just continue watching once you join your account.

00:46:38.000 Just like YouTube Premium.

00:46:40.000 You'll have live sporting events coming up.

00:46:41.000 You have all kinds of other creators, content, and ad-free.

00:46:44.000 This could not have happened.

00:46:46.000 It was a mug.

00:46:48.000 I think our first order was like...

00:46:51.000 3,000 mugs in 2016.

00:46:53.000 Remember that night?

00:46:54.000 It was literally on a Logitech camera in my den, and you and I had to tear down.

00:47:00.000 So there is a huge shift.

00:47:03.000 And young Gen Z men, I believe it was 56% voted for Trump.

00:47:06.000 Okay, here's some other fallout.

00:47:07.000 CNN. Well, so before we get to CNN, let me bring this up because I want us to be first to this.

00:47:11.000 Because I know I'm betting that before we go off air, this is going to make the rounds, right?

00:47:15.000 So Donald Trump said something apparently at this little conferencing that he was at with the Republicans just before.

00:47:20.000 It was very quick and brief and he went on to other stuff and he's going to meet with him later.

00:47:24.000 Bring it up what he said.

00:47:25.000 So I suspect I won't be running again unless you say he's so good we've got to figure something else out.

00:47:31.000 Great.

00:47:32.000 Which I think is hilarious because here's what's going to happen.

00:47:34.000 I think that's Trump just perfectly trolling.

00:47:38.000 I don't know if there's a clip of it, but I guarantee you.

00:47:41.000 I guarantee you he probably at some point turned to someone near him and said, Wait till they hear this.

00:47:47.000 Look!

00:47:47.000 I can't run anymore.

00:47:49.000 Looked at him.

00:47:51.000 Unless you like me so much, you'll have to figure something out.

00:47:54.000 But that's you.

00:47:55.000 I was going to say, he's probably pointing at somebody.

00:47:56.000 He's probably pointing at...

00:47:57.000 Yeah.

00:47:58.000 And then laughing.

00:47:58.000 And he just bumped him on the way out and laughed.

00:48:00.000 We told you!

00:48:01.000 He's never going to leave office!

00:48:02.000 I guarantee you, he needs to have a neck massage from laughing so hard.

00:48:06.000 I think there's clips of Obama joking about the same thing.

00:48:09.000 Yes!

00:48:09.000 Which I didn't take seriously.

00:48:11.000 No, of course not.

00:48:12.000 The left veterates FDR for crying out loud.

00:48:14.000 Yeah.

00:48:15.000 Think about that.

00:48:16.000 You know, it's just...

00:48:17.000 Okay.

00:48:18.000 Term limits?

00:48:20.000 Do you have a problem with Bernie Sanders?

00:48:22.000 Why does it only apply to a president and not apply to people who really don't have to do all that much, let's be honest, people who aren't in executive positions?

00:48:30.000 Comment below if you think there should be term limits, if you think it should be for the president as well as senators, or you think it should be for one or the other.

00:48:38.000 I think it's got to be consistent across the board, honestly.

00:48:40.000 If we're going to have a country of ever-changing laws, then we have to have a country of ever-changing representatives who make that law.

00:48:44.000 Yeah, they get in charge.

00:48:46.000 Yeah.

00:48:47.000 CNN. So on Tuesday, it was reported yesterday, CNN is going to be laying off hundreds of employees.

00:48:53.000 But I'll tell you why this won't work.

00:48:54.000 This is from the New York Post.

00:48:56.000 It says, CNN will implement another round of layoffs that will impact hundreds of employees across the organization, including those whose TV production talents won't necessarily be needed in the new digital-first landscape.

00:49:08.000 Chris Wallace!

00:49:09.000 Some of the on-air talent are also likely to be affected.

00:49:13.000 Uh-oh.

00:49:14.000 And Chris Wallace left CNN and said, I'm going to get into the podcasting space.

00:49:18.000 He didn't leave.

00:49:18.000 Good luck.

00:49:19.000 He didn't leave.

00:49:20.000 He said he was leaving.

00:49:21.000 They weren't going to renew his contract.

00:49:23.000 Okay.

00:49:23.000 There's more that has come out since, and it's like, I'm leaving!

00:49:27.000 You can't fire me!

00:49:27.000 Point is, think about it.

00:49:28.000 Don Lemon.

00:49:29.000 Think about it.

00:49:30.000 Chris Wallace.

00:49:31.000 Think about all these people.

00:49:32.000 They can't compete.

00:49:33.000 A-list actors right now.

00:49:35.000 You may not know.

00:49:36.000 Think of your favorite actor from that movie.

00:49:38.000 Yeah, they have a podcast.

00:49:40.000 These people are fundamentally uninteresting.

00:49:43.000 And that's why they're furious at people like Joe Rogan.

00:49:47.000 And, yeah, yours truly.

00:49:48.000 This shouldn't have happened when you take into consideration the budget.

00:49:52.000 Current CNN salaries, Anderson Cooper, is $20 million a year.

00:49:56.000 How is that possible?

00:49:57.000 How many queer shopping sprees do you need? 1.00

00:50:00.000 Jake Tapper, $7 million.

00:50:02.000 Aaron Burnett, $6 million?

00:50:04.000 Aaron Burnett?

00:50:05.000 She's got a primetime show.

00:50:06.000 Oh my god.

00:50:07.000 She's out front.

00:50:08.000 I have to know what Erin Burnett thinks about this. 0.53

00:50:10.000 Said nobody on earth.

00:50:14.000 Caitlin Collins.

00:50:15.000 Three million.

00:50:16.000 That's a lot of sugar waxing for those four arms. 1.00

00:50:19.000 I understand that one more.

00:50:20.000 And Wolf Blitzer.

00:50:22.000 Wolf, lowest score ever on Celebrity Jeopardy Blitzer.

00:50:28.000 Three million dollars for Wolf Blitzer.

00:50:33.000 By the way, it's the same Wolf Blitzer who actually said this. 0.97

00:50:37.000 So tragically, so many of these people, almost all of them that we see are so poor and they are so black. 0.98

00:50:48.000 I mean, ha! 0.99

00:50:49.000 So black. 1.00

00:50:49.000 And when he said it, all the people on screen weren't black at all, some of them, and then the ones that were, they were like mildly black. 1.00

00:50:56.000 Can you imagine if Trump said that, what Wolf Blitzer would say about it?

00:50:58.000 Oh my gosh.

00:51:00.000 They're so poor. 1.00

00:51:01.000 This guy is a moron. 1.00

00:51:04.000 And I mean it. 1.00

00:51:05.000 I was watching CNN, and I don't just say that. 0.99

00:51:07.000 I don't think Anderson Cooper's a moron. 1.00

00:51:08.000 I don't think Jake Tapper's a moron. 1.00

00:51:09.000 I don't think Erin Burnett's a moron. 1.00

00:51:11.000 Caitlin Collins, I don't know. 1.00

00:51:12.000 She's hairy. 1.00

00:51:12.000 That's all I know. 1.00

00:51:14.000 Wolf Blitzer, I watched him, they were going through the electoral map on a segment.

00:51:18.000 I don't know if it's that Enten guy, and he's talking about New York and looking at the games of Donald Trump.

00:51:24.000 And he goes on for about five minutes, and it goes back to Wolf Blitzer, and he just goes, hmm, and of course, Buffalo is where I'm from.

00:51:32.000 Ed will return after this break.

00:51:34.000 That's your spin on it?

00:51:36.000 I know that place. 1.00

00:51:38.000 He's an idiot. 1.00

00:51:40.000 And I genuinely mean that. 1.00

00:51:41.000 I actually think we have a clip of him on Celebrity Jeopardy.

00:51:45.000 Wolf, things have not worked out.

00:51:49.000 I'm sure Andy's so much faster on that signaling device today.

00:51:52.000 Everybody else, the lowest score after that was 4,800 positive.

00:51:56.000 Who was the other contestants?

00:51:58.000 I don't remember.

00:51:59.000 I think it was Andy Richter.

00:52:01.000 Is it Andy Richter?

00:52:02.000 I think Andy Richter was it.

00:52:03.000 Oh, man.

00:52:05.000 Couldn't he get burned by Conan?

00:52:06.000 He had to get a sidekick.

00:52:07.000 Oh, my gosh.

00:52:08.000 Yeah, Andy Richter.

00:52:09.000 I don't know who the other one is.

00:52:10.000 Dana?

00:52:11.000 It's Dana something.

00:52:12.000 Whatever.

00:52:13.000 I have no idea.

00:52:14.000 But here's something.

00:52:15.000 It doesn't matter if they slash cost.

00:52:17.000 It's not going to change anything.

00:52:18.000 For the same reason that CNN, whatever it was, online, was it premium, whatever they called it, CNN? CNN Plus.

00:52:23.000 CNN Plus.

00:52:24.000 I think they spent $100 million and it lasted like a month and a half.

00:52:28.000 Yeah, that means that people are rejecting it.

00:52:30.000 It used to be where you could just buy it.

00:52:31.000 Now, this is also why I have a problem with YouTube.

00:52:33.000 I don't know if you know this.

00:52:33.000 You can buy views on YouTube.

00:52:36.000 Conservatives do that too, by the way.

00:52:37.000 It happens across the board.

00:52:38.000 You can't buy live viewers.

00:52:40.000 That's harder to cheat.

00:52:42.000 And you can't really buy retention, meaning people stick around for a long time.

00:52:46.000 Exactly, yeah.

00:52:46.000 So that's also why sponsors don't pay anything for X views because you'll say, ah, half a billion views.

00:52:51.000 Well, if that was true, then Donald Trump on Joe Rogan with 32 million or 35 million plays wouldn't mean anything.

00:52:56.000 But a lot of them are two seconds or less views.

00:52:58.000 You have no way of knowing it.

00:52:59.000 So what really does matter is engagement, meaning people actually tuning in and staying in.

00:53:03.000 That matters because it means these people actually care about the program.

00:53:07.000 People don't care about CNN.

00:53:09.000 People don't care about MSNBC.

00:53:11.000 And a big reason why, you may get some college elites who might want to watch and discuss it at their cocktail hour.

00:53:20.000 But CNN is so blind.

00:53:22.000 It's not about the fact that this one man I'm going to show you on a panel gets furious that someone refers to biological boys as biological boys.

00:53:29.000 It's that CNN is still in this moment.

00:53:31.000 They have a gimme.

00:53:32.000 They have a freebie where they could just go, all right, come on, don't derail the panel.

00:53:36.000 You know he's not trying to offend you.

00:53:37.000 Let's move on.

00:53:38.000 But instead, they have to say, hold on.

00:53:40.000 We have to, I understand, but we have to be respectful.

00:53:43.000 No, you have people on CNN who can't even have a conversation as a grown-ass man with another man if he says that boys and girls are different.

00:53:53.000 Watch.

00:53:53.000 I think there are a lot of families out there who don't believe boys should play girls sports.

00:54:00.000 They're not boys.

00:54:01.000 I'm not going to listen to transphobia at this table.

00:54:04.000 You call a trans girl a boy. 1.00

00:54:06.000 Are you going to allow me to finish my explanation?

00:54:08.000 When you use a word, it's a slur, I'm going to interrupt.

00:54:11.000 Now pause.

00:54:12.000 Pause.

00:54:14.000 Once upon a time, someone would just say, hey, hey, hey, hey.

00:54:18.000 Then you can leave.

00:54:20.000 This guy is clearly not insulting.

00:54:21.000 You can leave.

00:54:22.000 We're adults.

00:54:23.000 This is a panel on a news show.

00:54:25.000 You don't get to do that.

00:54:27.000 The left has to allow these extremists to hijack all of their institutions.

00:54:33.000 Watch how they handle it.

00:54:34.000 Boys, they're not boys, they're not playing girls softball. 0.54

00:54:37.000 I'm not going to sit there and listen to that.

00:54:40.000 Want to bet?

00:54:41.000 Look, this is a really heated issue, right?

00:54:44.000 And I know you, I know that you understand that people have different views on this.

00:54:49.000 I think out of respect for Jay, like, let's try to talk about this in a way that is respectful. 1.00

00:54:55.000 She doesn't believe that shit. 0.99

00:54:56.000 Okay, so let me rephrase this since I'm being targeted here. 1.00

00:55:00.000 No, no, it's okay.

00:55:01.000 I'm specifically saying that I know that you are not intent- Pause.

00:55:06.000 This is why, and this is why I changed my mind started, by the way.

00:55:09.000 I was at Fox News for four and a half years, I've appeared on HLN, I've appeared on CNN, BBC, Sky News, all these places.

00:55:15.000 They go, you have limited time, buy up as much time by saying as little as possible to mitigate your risk.

00:55:20.000 It's not a real conversation.

00:55:21.000 And it's why at the beginning of every change in my mind, I would go, well, hold on.

00:55:24.000 What do we mean by this?

00:55:25.000 It's important that you define your terms.

00:55:27.000 If you allow the left to say, well, hold on a second, do you mean to say cis boys?

00:55:32.000 Now it's just going to be wordplay.

00:55:33.000 And any time they feel that they're losing this conversation, guess what?

00:55:38.000 They can take their ball and go home.

00:55:40.000 They've given themselves an out.

00:55:41.000 I'm not going to sit here.

00:55:43.000 You're an adult.

00:55:45.000 Sit there and make your case.

00:55:47.000 And he can't, and you'll see.

00:55:49.000 - His face.

00:55:51.000 - He should know that I'm not him.

00:55:53.000 - But I want to give you an opportunity to-- - So the way regular people interpret it-- - That's not regular people-- - That's not regular people.

00:56:03.000 There's no consensus that these are actually boys.

00:56:05.000 This whole thing about trans girls is a canard. 1.00

00:56:08.000 We're talking about a tiny, tiny sliver of the population.

00:56:11.000 That may be the case, but my point in terms of its effectiveness...

00:56:15.000 Hold on, just get to your point.

00:56:17.000 My point in terms of its effectiveness.

00:56:19.000 Pause.

00:56:20.000 Hold on one second there.

00:56:21.000 It's a canard.

00:56:22.000 It's a tiny, tiny sliver.

00:56:23.000 It's not a tiny sliver of the record holders and competitors in female sports. 0.98

00:56:28.000 Two boxers at the Olympics.

00:56:30.000 You have cycling records.

00:56:32.000 You have state sprinting records.

00:56:33.000 Just because there haven't been enough yet, because we've never allowed this to take place, doesn't mean that it won't be awful.

00:56:41.000 And the experiment has already yielded catastrophic results.

00:56:45.000 That's why it's not, actually.

00:56:47.000 It's really not.

00:56:48.000 A heated issue, as Abby Phillips just said, but let's continue.

00:56:51.000 People with children look at these things and they say, you know what?

00:56:55.000 This is a bit too far.

00:56:56.000 I do not agree with this.

00:56:57.000 I don't like this.

00:56:58.000 I think Democrats are going way too much to the left on social issues.

00:57:02.000 They're uncomfortable with it.

00:57:03.000 A lot of people believe that.

00:57:05.000 A lot of families believe that.

00:57:06.000 You may disagree with that reality, but that's why Republicans kept running those ads over and over and over again because they saw the metrics suggested that they were working.

00:57:14.000 And lying in those ads over and over again and using rhetoric like you just used, saying this is boys playing girls sports.

00:57:20.000 It's because it is.

00:57:23.000 We're talking about trans girls being allowed to play with the people who are in their gender.

00:57:29.000 You don't have to listen to me.

00:57:31.000 Listen to the American Medical Association, the American Psychological Association.

00:57:36.000 Do we have the intellectual fallacy alert?

00:57:41.000 I don't know if you have it there.

00:57:41.000 Because he just implemented every single one.

00:57:45.000 Every single one.

00:57:46.000 First off, he changed the words, right?

00:57:49.000 Okay.

00:57:49.000 Yeah, that's right.

00:57:50.000 That's cool.

00:57:51.000 Perfect.

00:57:51.000 You have the appeal to authority fallacy.

00:57:53.000 Ah, these institutions.

00:57:54.000 Yeah, well, there are other institutions, including, by the way, the eyeball test, and including a basic DNA test.

00:58:01.000 You can't get away from that, so you have to say, oh, these institutions, these people.

00:58:04.000 Oh, just like Anthony Fauci, for some reason, supersedes all of the data that we had available to us at that point in time as it related to AIDS and HIV. He also, by the way, tries to appeal to its, you know, ad popular.

00:58:15.000 Well, actually, no.

00:58:16.000 Oh, a lot of people don't agree with this.

00:58:17.000 There's no consensus on this.

00:58:19.000 But hold on.

00:58:19.000 Consensus?

00:58:20.000 I don't know if you know this.

00:58:20.000 Science is not governed by consensus.

00:58:22.000 It's a tool.

00:58:23.000 It's governed by what is correct.

00:58:26.000 The scientific method does not go, okay, we're going to conduct this experiment, and I know you're going to say I'm not a scientist.

00:58:32.000 That's right.

00:58:32.000 Let's go to rudimentary science.

00:58:35.000 Hypothesis?

00:58:35.000 Test it.

00:58:36.000 What's the result?

00:58:37.000 You can have different people analyze the results, but if the results come back every single time, oh, chromosomes!

00:58:44.000 Oh, genetics.

00:58:45.000 Someone who says, well, I'm interpreting this differently, is someone who is trying to change the science for political purposes.

00:58:52.000 Everything this guy does, he changes the words, right?

00:58:56.000 Gender.

00:58:56.000 He goes to that.

00:58:57.000 Gender.

00:58:58.000 They used to say sex and gender were different.

00:59:00.000 If you go back and watch Change My Mind the first time, I asked, what is a woman? 1.00

00:59:04.000 We need to define this.

00:59:04.000 What is sex?

00:59:05.000 Gender was a grammatical term for a very long period of time.

00:59:08.000 And by the way, even if you look at people who believe that you could be transgender, they still believe that existed within the binary.

00:59:14.000 It goes to Judith Butler, Simone de Beauvoir, then you have John Money with the twin study.

00:59:17.000 I've walked you through all of this.

00:59:19.000 The point is, you can go back, it's remedial.

00:59:22.000 69% of Americans oppose biological boys, boys, in girls' sports.

00:59:29.000 And the other 31% are lying.

00:59:31.000 That would be the consensus.

00:59:34.000 It's not a heated issue.

00:59:36.000 It's not a heated issue.

00:59:37.000 You can't find 69% of Americans, outside of voter ID, supporting it, you can't find 69% of Americans who agree on anything, to be clear.

00:59:44.000 And that number is only going up.

00:59:46.000 So if you start with the fallacy, well, this is very heated.

00:59:49.000 There are many Americans who are offended, just as this panelist is, at the idea of the term boy.

00:59:54.000 That's not true.

00:59:55.000 There are many people in positions of authority who don't agree with you.

00:59:59.000 Do they disagree?

01:00:01.000 With the genetic makeup of a male and female?

01:00:03.000 No.

01:00:03.000 No, they do not.

01:00:04.000 That is irrefutable.

01:00:05.000 There's no way around it.

01:00:06.000 I'm not talking about extreme examples like intersex, by the way, who don't want to be included, or Kleinfelders. 0.99

01:00:10.000 These are.00 whatever percent of the population depending on the year.

01:00:15.000 This is not a contentious issue.

01:00:17.000 The left still cannot bring themselves to just ask that everyone treat each other like adults.

01:00:23.000 That is the difference.

01:00:25.000 Even going back to gay marriage, You know what? 1.00

01:00:29.000 Be ready to clip this.

01:00:30.000 You want to know where this started?

01:00:32.000 Absolutely started with same-sex marriage.

01:00:34.000 That's when he said, there's nothing.

01:00:36.000 There's nothing that a mom brings to the table that two dads can't.

01:00:40.000 Well, there's no need for a dad.

01:00:42.000 Two moms is just as good. 1.00

01:00:43.000 And when you allowed people to frame it as, why do you hate if you oppose it, which not that long ago, California voted it down.

01:00:51.000 You may not remember that.

01:00:52.000 Why do you oppose it?

01:00:53.000 Do you hate?

01:00:54.000 That's how they started to frame it in.

01:00:55.000 There were still plenty of reasonable Democrats who go, yeah, okay.

01:00:58.000 You know, like Elton John.

01:00:59.000 Civil unions, I understand where you're coming from.

01:01:01.000 Marriage is seen as a religious institution.

01:01:03.000 All right, we're talking about putting someone in the will, talking about tax breaks.

01:01:06.000 Yeah, there was a middle ground, but there was a subset of people back then.

01:01:09.000 Who said, if you believe that the institution of marriage in the United States is reserved for a man and a woman because we identify gender differences and their innate value that they bring to rearing a child, if you recognize that, you're hateful.

01:01:22.000 And those people who said that anyone was opposed to it was a hateful bigot, they controlled.

01:01:27.000 They moved into positions of control.

01:01:28.000 The entire Democrat Party, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, take your pick.

01:01:34.000 Whichever one's bankrupt, given the month.

01:01:37.000 So this is where they are.

01:01:39.000 They can't even start.

01:01:41.000 How do you start from a perspective of having a dialogue and self-reflection?

01:01:45.000 Yeah.

01:01:46.000 If you have to spend the entire panel, think about it.

01:01:48.000 They didn't discuss anything because the guy was going, I'm not going to sit here and hear the term boy.

01:01:54.000 Go.

01:01:54.000 I'm not going to sit here.

01:01:56.000 You sit to pee, dude.

01:01:57.000 Yeah.

01:02:01.000 You're going to sit there just fine.

01:02:02.000 Yeah.

01:02:03.000 You'll do just fine.

01:02:03.000 They kicked a guy off for saying, I hope your pager doesn't go off.

01:02:06.000 Right.

01:02:06.000 They kicked him off a panel.

01:02:08.000 They stopped and had a moment where she looked at the camera and I'm so sorry that we had to deal with that.

01:02:12.000 And I hope everybody's okay.

01:02:13.000 But he's been kicked off the panel and never allowed to go back to CNN again.

01:02:16.000 Right.

01:02:16.000 Do you realize what...

01:02:17.000 Civil rights in this country happen through a vote.

01:02:20.000 Do you know that?

01:02:21.000 Do you know that so many things...

01:02:22.000 And at that point in time, no one's like, I'm not going to sit here and hear you tell me that they can beat...

01:02:28.000 Be at a diner with an eat pie with a hose and a German shepherd.

01:02:32.000 I'm not going to...

01:02:33.000 People actually manage to sit down over issues...

01:02:36.000 That we're genuinely contentious.

01:02:39.000 Today, boys and girls sports, it's not contentious for the majority of Americans, and it shouldn't be contentious for adults to discuss.

01:02:47.000 So CNN, facing record ratings losses and having to make layoffs, they're going to be focusing more on things like public access television to cut costs, like their upcoming new show, Wolf's World.

01:02:58.000 I would watch it.

01:03:05.000 Oh, and it's actually just been cancelled.

01:03:07.000 Yes.

01:03:08.000 But it lasted longer than CNN Plus.

01:03:10.000 Yes, exactly.

01:03:11.000 The good news is Chris Wallace, here he comes to save the day.

01:03:14.000 He's 77.

01:03:15.000 I know.

01:03:16.000 Just go away. 0.98

01:03:18.000 That's what I want, a 77-year-old podcast.

01:03:20.000 I know.

01:03:20.000 He loved our shirt.

01:03:21.000 He loved the fight shirt that we had at the RNC. He wanted that, but just go off into the sunset or wear that shirt on air.

01:03:27.000 One of the two.

01:03:28.000 Let's go into...

01:03:29.000 He horribly mismanaged his money.

01:03:31.000 Yes, he does.

01:03:32.000 And his dad's money.

01:03:33.000 His dad was doing well, too.

01:03:37.000 MSNBC, this is the other leftist network, and I say the other leftist network because CNN, remember people used to think it was actual journalism?

01:03:42.000 No, come on. 0.85

01:03:43.000 I remember when Joe Rogan used to cite CNN as a legitimate source, where he would call guests into question, go like, well, hold on, bring this up, Jamie.

01:03:50.000 And then the guest said, well, hold on a second, that's biased.

01:03:52.000 He would go, CNN? What, you don't trust CNN? Who do you trust?

01:03:54.000 And now that's changed.

01:03:55.000 That's how much trust has been eroded in institutions.

01:03:58.000 But MSNBC has also seen a huge...

01:04:02.000 Dive in ratings since the election.

01:04:04.000 Primetime viewership is down overall 54%.

01:04:07.000 Morning Joe, 39.6%.

01:04:11.000 Lawrence O'Donnell, 60.6%.

01:04:14.000 Stephanie Rule, I think I've heard of her, down 67%. 1.00

01:04:18.000 Joy Reid, down 54.6%.

01:04:21.000 To be fair, it is exclusively because she's a black woman, okay? 0.90

01:04:24.000 No, it's not.

01:04:26.000 Lawrence O'Donnell might be my favorite one, seeing it drop that much.

01:04:29.000 I love that.

01:04:31.000 Everything about that guy is dishonest. 0.92

01:04:33.000 Off-putting.

01:04:33.000 It may be, by the way, Comcast is actually considering selling off or separating from MSNBC. Yes.

01:04:39.000 Which, if I had that kind of money, I would absolutely...

01:04:42.000 It would be Mug Club or Rumble Premium's toy train set.

01:04:48.000 We would screw with it.

01:04:49.000 So, you know, consider clicking that button joining Rumble Premium because we could do all the more of you who join up.

01:04:53.000 Again, just if the amount of you join to just compare to the top three salaries of useless CNN hosts, imagine how much good we can do.

01:05:03.000 And I'm done with my pitch.

01:05:04.000 By the way, at the same time, Joy Reid, our premier host, by the way, strong, brave, beautiful black woman, she's dropping heat like this on TikTok.

01:05:14.000 Hey, I just want to give some free advice to the white progressives, particularly white progressive women who may be thinking about marching against the Trump victory, maybe putting back on the P word hats and doing that thing.

01:05:29.000 I would just say probably don't send any of those invites to any black women you know. 0.65

01:05:36.000 I'm just going to tell you right now they're not coming.

01:05:39.000 I'm pretty sure black women have resigned from the Save America Coalition, Save Democracy Coalition, and definitely the Save the Democratic Party Coalition. 1.00

01:05:48.000 I think that's probably not happening.

01:05:50.000 I would just keep those invites maybe among your own friends, because I don't think they're coming.

01:05:56.000 Name three.

01:05:57.000 Yeah, I think black women are now on the Save Black Women, Prioritize Black Men And prioritize black communities, black businesses, and that, and, you know, the black spaces.

01:06:10.000 But save America, save the Democratic Party.

01:06:11.000 Yeah, I don't think that's happening.

01:06:13.000 No, no, no, no, no, it's not.

01:06:15.000 Well, go talk with your friends. 0.95

01:06:16.000 Black supremacy is alive and real. 0.99

01:06:18.000 Yes, yes.

01:06:19.000 Think about that.

01:06:20.000 She's black women. 1.00

01:06:22.000 They're not a monolith.

01:06:23.000 I try to be pretty careful when I say, well, Gen Z, or I try to say a majority of white men or a voting demographic, a majority of white women tend to vote left, surprisingly not this last election, in the way that people anticipated.

01:06:34.000 She just goes, black women, period, agree with me. 0.99

01:06:36.000 I can't think of a woman less representative of the average black American woman than Joy Reid.

01:06:41.000 Comment below if you disagree.

01:06:42.000 I don't think that there is a group of Americans who are more overly represented in media while being completely unrepresented.

01:06:51.000 If you go to a church, you go to a mixed church, you talk with black members of your congregation, hang out in your neighborhood, just go, we've done it with black barbershop, black and white and the gray issues. 0.80

01:07:02.000 They do not speak like Joy Reid.

01:07:04.000 They do not speak like Van Jones.

01:07:05.000 They don't know who they are.

01:07:07.000 And I mean that.

01:07:08.000 But these people claim to speak for them.

01:07:10.000 That's how tone deaf the left is.

01:07:12.000 And I will tell you this, please, if you listen to nothing else, do not allow the left to tell you, or even conservative pseudo-intellectuals to tell you, that only policy matters.

01:07:23.000 Everything is downstream from culture.

01:07:25.000 I guarantee you there were people who walked into that voting booth going, Is this really where I am?

01:07:31.000 I mean, I have a daughter.

01:07:32.000 She plays basketball.

01:07:33.000 Is this really where...

01:07:34.000 I was just...

01:07:35.000 I was just yelled at for not wearing a mask at the Tom Thumb.

01:07:40.000 This is not the America that I grew up in.

01:07:43.000 This is not the America that I love.

01:07:44.000 And these are people, by the way, who were Democrats at one point in time.

01:07:49.000 Culture is so much more important, and that is the reason.

01:07:52.000 Do you honestly think that Gen Z boys, Gen Z young males...

01:07:57.000 Are engaging in intricate policy discussion?

01:08:01.000 Some are.

01:08:02.000 The majority are not.

01:08:04.000 They voted for Donald Trump.

01:08:05.000 You have not seen that.

01:08:07.000 With a generation. 0.73

01:08:09.000 You expect younger generations, really it's always been sort of assumed, hey, how conservative will they become as they grow older?

01:08:16.000 That's why it was well advised to, for example, encourage marriage, encourage working, right? 0.60

01:08:22.000 Encourage becoming active in your community because the more responsibilities that a young adult takes on, the more conservative they become.

01:08:28.000 But it always started off with, they're going to start off liberal, right?

01:08:31.000 They're in college, they're living in a fantasy world, and then they become more conservative.

01:08:35.000 Most young men We're good to go. 1.00

01:08:57.000 Yeah, okay.

01:08:58.000 You know what?

01:08:59.000 Transphobic.

01:08:59.000 Let's go with that.

01:09:00.000 Let's go with that.

01:09:01.000 You know what? 0.99

01:09:02.000 I watched that boy kick the shit out of that girl at a wrestling duel, and I don't think that should be happening. 0.99

01:09:07.000 I didn't know a volleyball could go through a human face. 0.99

01:09:13.000 We have the clip.

01:09:14.000 Do we have that clip?

01:09:16.000 We played it before.

01:09:17.000 We played it before.

01:09:18.000 I'm sure we can find it.

01:09:19.000 The scream? 0.67

01:09:20.000 Ah!

01:09:21.000 Please.

01:09:23.000 You got me excited and then I feel like the rug was pulled from him. 0.88

01:09:26.000 Carl spikes the ball through a human skull.

01:09:28.000 And the left will always, and they will always say, well, it's a very, very small percentage of people.

01:09:33.000 They'll say, well, you know, the reason it's not, this is not a real issue.

01:09:35.000 It's a canard.

01:09:36.000 Only two people at the Olympics.

01:09:37.000 Hey, just because we haven't opened the floodgates yet.

01:09:41.000 People, you know what people used to say that about?

01:09:44.000 Immigration.

01:09:44.000 Well, we haven't seen it.

01:09:46.000 Here are your 18 million signs that once you did it your way, yeah, it's a disaster.

01:09:53.000 You want to do that?

01:09:55.000 You want to do that with eliminating gender lines? 0.99

01:09:58.000 It's a big issue.

01:09:58.000 You want to do that with our healthcare system?

01:10:01.000 And fat pride.

01:10:03.000 All bodies are beautiful.

01:10:04.000 You can be healthy at any weight.

01:10:07.000 Do you really want to do that?

01:10:09.000 Do you want to do that where you have policies that actually punish white males for immutable characteristics?

01:10:15.000 Just because we haven't done it yet, it's not a real issue.

01:10:17.000 Yeah, but you want to make it a real issue.

01:10:19.000 It's not about Kamala Harris, for example, supporting taxpayer-funded sex changes for prisoners.

01:10:25.000 We know that won't happen that often.

01:10:27.000 It will happen more often.

01:10:28.000 It's a reflection of That the left has absolutely no line that they will not cross.

01:10:35.000 Genuinely, I'm trying to put a finer point on this.

01:10:37.000 If you have a party that supports abortion up until and including birth period, doubling of whatever tax rate, depending on which one they're proposing at that point in time, unrealized capital gains.

01:10:49.000 But let's just go with the cultural issues here.

01:10:51.000 Sex change operations. 0.61

01:10:54.000 For inmates.

01:10:55.000 Okay?

01:10:56.000 An abortion up until and including birth.

01:10:58.000 If you have a party, that's their platform.

01:11:00.000 What line won't they cross?

01:11:02.000 Remember back in the day?

01:11:03.000 Back in the day, we used to say, well, the gay marriage thing, people would say, I don't know.

01:11:07.000 I don't know how that affects the kids.

01:11:08.000 They'd go, oh, slippery slope argument.

01:11:10.000 Oh, really?
