00:02:53.000 And any America first, America first, Welcome to the lineup.

00:03:11.000 Live here on Rumble weekdays.

00:03:13.000 You don't need to change that down.

00:03:14.000 It's 11 a.m. Eastern, so we're here like we always are.

00:03:17.000 Was a busy weekend.

00:03:19.000 The Oscars happened.

00:03:20.000 Did you know that?

00:03:22.000 Come on, I know.

00:03:23.000 And I isn't it crazy that for about four or five years, we did a live Oscars stream.

00:03:29.000 I mean, every year.

00:03:30.000 And we were routinely banned while we were streaming because ABC didn't like that.

00:03:35.000 And now no one really cares.

00:03:37.000 It's sort of an afterthought.

00:03:39.000 That should tell you the monumental, the tectonic shift that has taken place in the media and entertainment landscape.

00:03:45.000 So we'll talk about that.

00:03:46.000 Of course, some awful moments, but they scream into the void now.

00:03:49.000 Leftist Hollywood elites have far less influence.

00:03:52.000 Pete Hegseth, Secretary of War, really did a good job of correcting the media.

00:03:57.000 He did his own fact check, so we're fact checking his fact check and fact check true.

00:04:01.000 Spoiler alert.

00:04:02.000 Also, John Oliver, he was out for a while.

00:04:04.000 Now he's back and he does his, you know, his heavy workload of once a week, having his producers grab some things from Salon and Slate.

00:04:12.000 And this time it was on JD Vance.

00:04:14.000 It was on JD Vance and everything wrong with JD Vance.

00:04:16.000 So we are going to do our latest installment of John Oliver is a.

00:04:21.000 So hopefully I bleeped the right one, but I don't know.

00:04:23.000 This is a cough button.

00:04:24.000 But I often bleep the wrong word and I just say the whole thing and you hear the offensive word.

00:04:28.000 But yeah, there's nothing I can do about that.

00:04:32.000 On with the show.

00:04:32.000 So what up, fam?

00:04:46.000 It's your boy D-Day, just hanging at the Izzy, living in luxury.

00:04:51.000 And today, I'm going to let y'all in on my secrets to success so you can live it up like me.

00:04:56.000 You feel me?

00:04:57.000 I'm going to show you how to glow up without a blow-up so you can cop a crib like me.

00:05:01.000 Daryl, this is my house.

00:05:03.000 You didn't pay for this.

00:05:05.000 I did.

00:05:05.000 Dad, you're interrupting my video.

00:05:08.000 I'm going to have to restart now.

00:05:10.000 And stop calling me Daryl.

00:05:12.000 I told you, it's D-Day now.

00:05:15.000 D-Day.

00:05:16.000 I'll stop calling you Daryl when you start on the D-ish.

00:05:20.000 How about that, Daryl?

00:05:21.000 On God, fam.

00:05:22.000 On God.

00:05:23.000 He don't even know.

00:05:24.000 He didn't even know what I'm finna do.

00:05:25.000 Do your followers know you sleep in a pump bed?

00:05:28.000 I told you I'm saving up for the king bed.

00:05:31.000 I swear to God, man, on everything.

00:05:34.000 I can't wait to move out.

00:05:36.000 And you can.

00:05:37.000 You just have to call American Financing like I told you to. 1.00

00:05:40.000 And you're going to have to call an ambulance when I pop a cap in your ass. 1.00

00:05:45.000 I didn't do nothing. 1.00

00:05:46.000 I'm sorry.

00:05:48.000 Call the pros at American Financing Today at 1-800-974-6500 or visit www.americanfinancing.net slash crowder.

00:05:57.000 NMLS 1-82-334.

00:06:00.000 If you start today, you may even delay up to two mortgage payments.

00:06:40.000 Oh, I forgot to ask you, actually.

00:06:41.000 Have you seen any of the movies that were nominated for the significant Oscars this year?

00:06:47.000 Yeah.

00:06:47.000 Yes.

00:06:48.000 Art no.

00:06:49.000 I saw one battle after another.

00:06:50.000 Yeah, okay.

00:06:51.000 That's what I saw.

00:06:52.000 It was fine.

00:06:52.000 I didn't love it.

00:06:53.000 I didn't love it, but it was well done and it kind of made fun of commies too. 0.99

00:06:57.000 Like they seemed sort of inept. 0.98

00:06:58.000 They were inept, but yeah, whatever. 1.00

00:07:00.000 That's it. 0.99

00:07:00.000 I'm trying to think of what else I had seen. 0.99

00:07:02.000 I don't know.

00:07:03.000 My favorite part of the Oscars is the in-memoriam, though.

00:07:06.000 Yes.

00:07:06.000 That always brings a smile to my face.

00:07:09.000 Well, I didn't mean that in a fun way.

00:07:11.000 I just mean like it is a warm.

00:07:13.000 Let me quote you to you.

00:07:14.000 My favorite part of the Oscars is the in-memorium.

00:07:18.000 Not that they died.

00:07:20.000 I just, I like to appreciate someone's death, you know, life.

00:07:24.000 You know, you look back on them and it's a heartfelt moment. 1.00

00:07:27.000 And then the rest of the Oscars is just a bunch of self-serving, self-righteous assholes. 1.00

00:07:31.000 You're banned from my funeral. 1.00

00:07:32.000 You're not allowed to go.

00:07:33.000 You're the kind of guy to go up.

00:07:34.000 Let us not remember how he died, but how he lived.

00:07:39.000 Let us not remember that he hung himself in a Holiday in Express for like Windsor Not.

00:07:44.000 You don't want me there doing that?

00:07:46.000 Covered in the continental breakfast cereal rolls.

00:07:52.000 Crumbs down his glistening chest.

00:07:54.000 He died how he lived, eating powdered eggs.

00:07:57.000 Yes.

00:07:59.000 Texas shaped waffles.

00:08:00.000 And lively bitching about the customer service. 1.00

00:08:04.000 Ah, he loved bitching about customer service. 1.00

00:08:07.000 But as he lived, well, they're quite similar.

00:08:09.000 So I just really like this part. 0.99

00:08:13.000 I guess kill himself that way, though. 0.97

00:08:14.000 The ball gag wasn't in the cell. 0.70

00:08:16.000 Captain Morgan, CEO, how are you?

00:08:18.000 Doing fine.

00:08:19.000 How are you?

00:08:19.000 Good.

00:08:20.000 Good.

00:08:20.000 You were pretty good there at the shooting range when we went last year.

00:08:22.000 Thank you.

00:08:22.000 Coming along nicely.

00:08:23.000 You hit it 400 yards, didn't you?

00:08:25.000 With the red dot.

00:08:27.000 The dot like cover.

00:08:28.000 It wasn't a magnifying.

00:08:29.000 Yeah, that was just, it was like one time.

00:08:31.000 Yeah, I got nowhere close.

00:08:32.000 There's a lot of people.

00:08:33.000 It was just sliding.

00:08:34.000 I just closed my eyes and went, bing, yeah, there you go.

00:08:37.000 Every time, and I stopped because you don't want to do it again and show that you can't do it.

00:08:40.000 And then obviously, you know him, you love him Friday, Saturday, March 20th, 21st at Summit City Comedy Club in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

00:08:49.000 You know, Gotham was based off of Fort Wayne, Indiana.

00:08:52.000 That's true.

00:08:53.000 The crown jewel of Indiana, they refer to it.

00:08:55.000 They do call it that.

00:08:56.000 Yeah.

00:08:58.000 Yes.

00:08:59.000 The Paris of the Trolls.

00:09:00.000 They call it that because everyone's drinking Crown Royal.

00:09:03.000 Everyone's a little drunk.

00:09:04.000 Yeah.

00:09:05.000 A crown apple in their trunk.

00:09:06.000 Yeah, they're drinking a Canadian beverage because of American Pride.

00:09:09.000 But go, go.

00:09:10.000 Because if you're there in Indiana, you know, like, come on.

00:09:13.000 Yeah, come on. 0.77

00:09:13.000 What else? 0.77

00:09:15.000 Go see what?

00:09:15.000 The Dillander Escape Museum, the Christmas Story House, or go see live comedy.

00:09:21.000 Speaking of entertainment, Joy Reed, don't say Demolition Man.

00:09:26.000 She's not.

00:09:29.000 I always feel like she's Demolition Man in the wrong timeline.

00:09:33.000 Yes.

00:09:34.000 Like, she's like, there's Demolition Man.

00:09:37.000 She's like time.

00:09:41.000 So she identifies, see, the cuff button came handy.

00:09:44.000 Joy Reed identified the new, thank goodness, superpower of the world.

00:09:50.000 If there is a real Wakanda, it's the Democratic Republic of Congo.

00:09:53.000 It has every mineral that you need to make.

00:09:57.000 iPhones, your cell phones.

00:09:58.000 The cobalt.

00:09:59.000 It has every mineral.

00:10:00.000 It's everything.

00:10:02.000 It has every mineral in the greatest abundance on the entire planet.

00:10:06.000 It should be the richest nation.

00:10:07.000 There's no way to get it.

00:10:08.000 And instead, it's just completely exploited because of Europe and the West.

00:10:12.000 And these companies like Apple and all these other bars around the world, they just view it as a place to plunder, like they've always viewed the continent.

00:10:19.000 The continent is just a place to plunder.

00:10:21.000 They don't respect the people there, the government's there. 0.93

00:10:23.000 That's why I respect the governments like Mali and Burkina Faso, the ones who are killing the f ⁇ ed off. 1.00

00:10:29.000 Like, that's what I need Africa to do. 1.00

00:10:31.000 Yeah, well, she would know her father is from said Congo there too.

00:10:35.000 And their family has a long story history of protecting it.

00:10:39.000 Yes.

00:10:41.000 God, wear pants. 0.96

00:10:43.000 By the way, just while she mentions these places, she mentions Mali. 0.99

00:10:47.000 That place, just to be clear, being gay is like a criminal offense. 1.00

00:10:52.000 They use children, right? 0.97

00:10:53.000 This is the kind of place we've seen where they recruit children for armed conflicts.

00:10:56.000 And in January 2026, Al-Qaeda kidnapped and slit the throat of 10 truck drivers.

00:11:01.000 You're seeing a lot of Islamic encroachment. 1.00

00:11:02.000 Nice place.

00:11:03.000 They always want to blame Africa, never on Africa, but on like colonialism.

00:11:07.000 A very clear example would be, hey, how about AIDS? 0.97

00:11:09.000 How about the fact that you had missionaries go in and then actual American government programs hand out condoms, of course, which was always incredibly ineffective, but tell them how to not transmit AIDS, yet they still decided to rape virgin children to try and get rid of their AIDS.

00:11:26.000 How do you blame that on the United States?

00:11:29.000 Why does almost all of Africa still look like Africa? 0.99

00:11:33.000 By the way, Africa had gold, all kinds of mines that were valuable before.

00:11:37.000 They just didn't have the tools to get them.

00:11:39.000 Exactly.

00:11:40.000 I was about to say, like, yeah, before the colonial powers arrived, they were just nailing it.

00:11:44.000 Yeah.

00:11:44.000 Oh, they weren't.

00:11:45.000 Yeah.

00:11:46.000 They were tribesmen trying not to die.

00:11:48.000 The cradle of civilization that remained at the same state as they were when they were the cradle of civilization.

00:11:54.000 Except for that Egypt place. 0.80

00:11:55.000 They had pyramids, but that was the alien help. 1.00

00:11:56.000 So I don't.

00:11:56.000 I think the aliens did help with the pyramids.

00:11:58.000 Finally, you're getting on board, Jerry.

00:11:59.000 Yeah, they mimic the stars.

00:12:02.000 There's no other way.

00:12:04.000 They're power plants, Stephen.

00:12:05.000 Yes.

00:12:06.000 Also, the reason we haven't transitioned to nuclear power is because of aliens.

00:12:10.000 Have you heard this?

00:12:10.000 No.

00:12:11.000 This is another conspiracy right now.

00:12:12.000 And I?

00:12:13.000 That's all it is.

00:12:14.000 No, there's nothing else.

00:12:15.000 They're like, the reason we haven't gone to nuclear and something about Area 51 and is because aliens don't want us to.

00:12:20.000 But how do we know that?

00:12:22.000 I mean, we don't.

00:12:23.000 No, I mean, we don't.

00:12:24.000 You just see it on Instagram and assume it's true.

00:12:28.000 You didn't read the crop circles.

00:12:29.000 They put it there right for us, Gerald.

00:12:31.000 That's what I was looking for.

00:12:32.000 You're not reading with your eyes.

00:12:33.000 Yeah.

00:12:33.000 Ah.

00:12:34.000 Okay.

00:12:35.000 It's like a.

00:12:35.000 It's not.

00:12:36.000 Yeah.

00:12:36.000 The crop circles are like a warning label, but for our planet.

00:12:39.000 You have an electric power.

00:12:40.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:12:40.000 Where aliens are like, don't let them do it.

00:12:42.000 So the aliens are like the old version of just stop oil.

00:12:45.000 Pretty much.

00:12:46.000 They're code paper aliens. 0.96

00:12:47.000 They're going to come glue their hands to the pyramids.

00:12:49.000 Yes.

00:12:51.000 That's what Stop Oil does. 0.99

00:12:53.000 But the truth be told, the Democratic Republic of Congo would be a superpower.

00:12:57.000 and we have to keep our eye on him thanks to powerful women like this oh shoot It's all. 1.00

00:13:12.000 She drew a line.

00:13:13.000 She just dolled her blade. 1.00

00:13:15.000 I don't.

00:13:20.000 And what's weird is that they all act like it's David Blaine who just pulled a magic trick.

00:13:23.000 I know, right?

00:13:24.000 Like, I am her!

00:13:26.000 She dragged it across the floor.

00:13:28.000 Places like that are always like the streets and the sidewalks and stuff.

00:13:30.000 They're always like half wet.

00:13:32.000 Yes.

00:13:33.000 Like half super wet and half super dry.

00:13:35.000 Right.

00:13:35.000 What is that liquid?

00:13:37.000 That's a good point.

00:13:37.000 I don't know.

00:13:38.000 I don't know either.

00:13:39.000 By the way, this is something that they do.

00:13:41.000 Is this in Zimbabwe?

00:13:42.000 Mozambique.

00:13:43.000 Mozambique.

00:13:44.000 Sorry, Zimbabweans that I've offended.

00:13:49.000 Well, it doesn't mean anything if you laugh it off, Jerry.

00:13:52.000 Yeah, I think you got the point.

00:13:54.000 I don't really mean it.

00:13:55.000 Wow.

00:13:56.000 That's a second in person.

00:13:58.000 Just pull it up.

00:13:59.000 Pull it up.

00:14:00.000 I want to be able to read it.

00:14:00.000 Bald men are being hunted down in Mozambique because they think they have gold in their heads, and that's why they're...

00:14:12.000 Can we bring up a picture of the hunter?

00:14:16.000 It's just one of the Alaskan gold show guys.

00:14:19.000 They are the next world superpower.

00:14:21.000 Oh, my God.

00:14:24.000 Democrats are going to win power.

00:14:25.000 Going to bring back USAID just so we could send wigs to Africa. 0.99

00:14:29.000 Yeah, you must protect the bold son.

00:14:33.000 Blame that one on colonialism.

00:14:35.000 Like, at a certain point, some guy decides to use a head blade, and now he has to play the most dangerous game for the rest of his life.

00:14:42.000 He wants to be like Mike, not anymore.

00:14:44.000 It's just. 1.00

00:14:48.000 Poor son of a bitch. 1.00

00:14:49.000 No, it's Propetia. 1.00

00:14:51.000 Wearing a bull's jersey and everything.

00:14:53.000 He's got fingers. 0.96

00:14:54.000 That stinks. 0.99

00:14:56.000 How many people did they kill before they're like, yeah, this is gold? 0.91

00:15:00.000 It would seem like you made that mistake once.

00:15:02.000 Just like you saw it.

00:15:04.000 Uh-oh.

00:15:05.000 Actually, you know what?

00:15:05.000 I guess we were wrong.

00:15:06.000 I feel like we might be dumb here because obviously they're getting this from somewhere whose head had gold in it. 0.85

00:15:12.000 Yeah, exactly. 0.52

00:15:13.000 They must have found the gold.

00:15:14.000 Right.

00:15:15.000 According to the article, so far, five.

00:15:18.000 Six.

00:15:19.000 So far, five, they found gold in their head.

00:15:22.000 No, no, no.

00:15:22.000 They've killed five looking for gold.

00:15:24.000 Oh, that's six.

00:15:29.000 Because one out of six people have gold in their gold head.

00:15:33.000 So however.

00:15:36.000 And then when it's not six, it'll be one out of seven.

00:15:41.000 That's good.

00:15:41.000 Those are good odds, how much gold we've done.

00:15:46.000 And maybe in Mud Club, someone can explain to us their logic. 0.97

00:15:46.000 You know what? 0.97

00:15:49.000 They can't. 0.94

00:15:49.000 Some kind of messed up Indiana Jones movie where it's like golden skulls, but you have to kill the body first. 0.94

00:15:54.000 It's all a poy by Big Wig.

00:15:56.000 Yes, exactly.

00:15:57.000 Somebody out there with a Frank Luntz wig, like, oh no, that guy has platinum in his ears.

00:16:02.000 No, this is a beef that went wrong.

00:16:03.000 Some bald guy pissed off some other guy.

00:16:05.000 He's like, listen, guys, here's what we're going to do.

00:16:07.000 Oh, my gosh.

00:16:08.000 It's just so funny and just such an awful place.

00:16:11.000 Oh, yeah.

00:16:12.000 And by awful place, I mean the entire continent of Africa.

00:16:15.000 However bad you think it is in the United States.

00:16:18.000 At least you are not being hunted so that they open your skull because they think you have gold in it.

00:16:23.000 But that's because of the West.

00:16:25.000 Yes, Steve.

00:16:25.000 It's a white guy who went there and said, hey, you see that bald guy over there?

00:16:29.000 Yes.

00:16:29.000 It's got gold in there.

00:16:30.000 Oh my God, what do you think they would do with Joy Reed if she showed up with her blue? 1.00

00:16:35.000 We know it!

00:16:37.000 You saw my gold, it's sprouting out!

00:16:44.000 You're Paul!

00:16:49.000 Gold doesn't grow on trees, it grows out of your head and in the ground.

00:16:58.000 Same saying like a gold chia pet.

00:17:00.000 Oh my god.

00:17:03.000 All right.

00:17:04.000 Thank you.

00:17:06.000 Thank you.

00:17:07.000 Sorry, guys.

00:17:09.000 That is just so funny.

00:17:12.000 Whereas here, here you have different concerns.

00:17:15.000 Like there, you're like, I hope no one cuts open my head today to try and find gold.

00:17:18.000 Here, you're like, I don't know about my, you know, taxes.

00:17:21.000 Okay, tax season, financing, which, by the way, Americanfinancing.net slash crowder.

00:17:25.000 You can call 1-800-974-6500.

00:17:28.000 NMLS 182-334.

00:17:29.000 I have to say, they've saved a lot of money for a lot of people, including people right here.

00:17:33.000 If you're looking to finance a house, refinance, whatever it is that you're looking to do, at least you're not being hunted for your head gold.

00:17:40.000 Sell them to support us doing this.

00:17:46.000 It's already.

00:17:47.000 Now you know why all those losing World Series teams' hats get sent to Africa. 0.95

00:17:51.000 It's just save the bald cutters. 0.99

00:17:54.000 There's some guy with like a Mavericks World Champions 2024 shirt.

00:17:58.000 Like, what?

00:17:59.000 They didn't win.

00:18:00.000 You may want to rethink naming the Golden Dome.

00:18:03.000 Yeah.

00:18:04.000 Oh, geez.

00:18:05.000 So now it's Notre Dame's fault.

00:18:07.000 Okay. 1.00

00:18:08.000 It's just they have to blame colonialism because no one wants to admit in these nations, they're so backwards and inbred that people are so stupid. 1.00

00:18:14.000 Yes. 1.00

00:18:15.000 People are so stupid. 1.00

00:18:16.000 They're like, well, what do you mean? 1.00

00:18:17.000 They're cutting people's heads open.

00:18:19.000 They've already gone through five with no gold, and they still think.

00:18:23.000 It's like we're supposed to act like all cultures are equal.

00:18:26.000 I mean, there's no scientific method in this country.

00:18:29.000 You test the hypothesis once.

00:18:31.000 Look, maybe you perform a lobotomy on one more, like two.

00:18:36.000 We call that the grace lobotomy.

00:18:38.000 We're like, maybe it's a flip.

00:18:39.000 It's the measure twice.

00:18:40.000 There's an outlier once.

00:18:41.000 But after two, you're like, oh, I think I forgot to carry the one, whatever it is. 0.97

00:18:46.000 It's just such a silly place. 0.94

00:18:48.000 But these are the places that the leftists. 0.99

00:18:52.000 What are they taking a brain and putting it through a sifter? 0.53

00:18:56.000 This is a prospector.

00:18:58.000 You have to squish it.

00:19:00.000 It comes out as a liquid.

00:19:02.000 I just got a new idea for a sponsor sketch.

00:19:05.000 Oh, no.

00:19:06.000 Oh, no.

00:19:08.000 True Gold Republic.

00:19:09.000 You guys ready for this?

00:19:13.000 Here we go.

00:19:18.000 I can just picture an executive at True Gold Republic with poor mid just pausing it.

00:19:23.000 Who signed off on that?

00:19:26.000 Anybody want to take it, man?

00:19:28.000 Anybody?

00:19:28.000 Pause and mid-screen.

00:19:30.000 No!

00:19:31.000 Pause.

00:19:32.000 Anyone want to take a crack at this?

00:19:34.000 This is how we're after.

00:19:36.000 Meanwhile, Gerald's in blackface. 0.92

00:19:38.000 Blackhead. 0.96

00:19:39.000 He's in blackhead. 0.98

00:19:43.000 All right.

00:19:43.000 If you're hoping it, we'll get to exit in some other, but it's not going to get any more.

00:19:48.000 Seriously toned because last night you forgot, like everyone, it was the Oscars, and they were incredibly gay. 1.00

00:19:58.000 Just gay. 1.00

00:19:58.000 It's time for entertainment minute. 1.00

00:20:10.000 All right.

00:20:10.000 How many did we end up with?

00:20:11.000 Top five, or did we end up?

00:20:13.000 I think we ended up with a bonus six.

00:20:15.000 So five worst moments from the Oscars.

00:20:16.000 By the way, if you're watching this as a clip, 11 a.m. Eastern.

00:20:19.000 That's when we stream every day.

00:20:20.000 We still do it live.

00:20:21.000 We chat with you.

00:20:22.000 You can check the references too.

00:20:23.000 Every show we give you a bibliography.

00:20:25.000 Here's the first moment that we watch, so you don't have to.

00:20:29.000 Conan O'Brien's really cringy, and we're going to fact check it because just take their premise.

00:20:34.000 Here's the problem with comedy now.

00:20:35.000 Take the premise of a leftist.

00:20:36.000 And the reason the joke isn't funny is because the premise is not rooted in any kernel of truth.

00:20:41.000 Here's Conan O'Brien joking about pedophiles, something with the Brits.

00:20:45.000 He's wrong on all counts.

00:20:47.000 It's the first time since 2012, first time since 2012, that there are no British actors nominated for best actor or best actress.

00:20:58.000 Yeah.

00:20:59.000 British spokesperson said, yeah, well, at least we arrest our pedophiles.

00:21:03.000 So we got that going forward.

00:21:08.000 Yeah, except they don't.

00:21:09.000 Whoops.

00:21:10.000 They don't.

00:21:11.000 I mean, we're not even going to get into the grooming gangs that the British government helped cover up.

00:21:17.000 But Prince Andrew, in case you guys forgot, he was arrested for like mishandling confidential documents, not the actual pedophile sort of activities that he or sexual assaults that he'd been carrying out.

00:21:29.000 So they don't.

00:21:31.000 They're actually far worse than us. 0.95

00:21:33.000 The Muslim grooming gangs, which were protected by the government because they didn't want people to be discriminatory, like it's actually the opposite of the truth. 0.63

00:21:42.000 Also, zero credible evidence whatsoever of President Trump's involvement with Epstein, with anything untoward outside of cooperating with authorities and kicking him out of Mar-a-Lago.

00:21:50.000 Doesn't matter if someone made some random accusation.

00:21:52.000 I know you have people on the dissident horseshoe right who want to say there's something there.

00:21:57.000 There's not.

00:21:57.000 You can check the references.

00:21:58.000 They're just allying with the left.

00:22:00.000 Number two, Jimmy Kimmel is going to Jimmy Kimmel.

00:22:04.000 And just think of the entitlement.

00:22:07.000 He's complaining about CBS canceling Colbert.

00:22:11.000 And so this is what the left does.

00:22:12.000 They don't understand the First Amendment because they don't actually believe in it.

00:22:16.000 So they conflate it with their sense of entitlement.

00:22:18.000 Here you go.

00:22:19.000 Are you exhausted?

00:22:20.000 Am I exhausted?

00:22:24.000 You've got to see me looking in my face.

00:22:27.000 Yes, I'm exhausted.

00:22:28.000 Of course. 0.94

00:22:29.000 It's ridiculous. 1.00

00:22:30.000 We live in a ridiculous country. 1.00

00:22:32.000 We always lived as a country. 1.00

00:22:33.000 It's a post-of-ridiculous in a fun Mr. T kind of way.

00:22:37.000 Now we've got a different Mr. T. As you know, there are some countries whose leaders don't support free speech.

00:22:43.000 I'm not at liberty to say which.

00:22:47.000 Let's just leave it at North Korea and CBS.

00:22:50.000 Fortunately, CBS is a government leader.

00:22:58.000 Fortunately for all of us, there is an international community of filmmakers dedicated to telling the truth.

00:23:04.000 Yes, fortunately for the world.

00:23:06.000 Thank God, because under the oppression of North Korea and CBS, you guys are going to shoot us straight. 0.97

00:23:12.000 You know, you guys who advocated for lockdowns, you guys who advocated for deplatforming anyone who disagreed with you, you guys who advocated for doctors treating patients during COVID, saying there might be natural immunity that they should be banned.

00:23:21.000 You guys.

00:23:22.000 Also, just think about this.

00:23:24.000 They don't defend freedom of speech at the end.

00:23:25.000 Where were they with January 6th?

00:23:27.000 Colbert, like, you talk about CBS.

00:23:30.000 Not only is it not the town square, it's not even the digital town square.

00:23:33.000 It's not a platform like X or Facebook or YouTube.

00:23:38.000 It's a network that pays him millions of dollars.

00:23:42.000 To make the argument that there is a free speech infringement on Colbert, you would have to ignore the fact that he only has 219,000 viewers in the demo, down from 800,000 the peak in 2017, which is still awful.

00:23:57.000 And he loses the network $40 to $50 million a year.

00:24:00.000 So let me ask you, at what point is it just terminating employment because you're losing the company money?

00:24:06.000 You need to address that if you're going to say this is clearly just about speech.

00:24:10.000 They didn't have a problem with his speech.

00:24:11.000 Do we want to say that what's changed is Colbert went from being moderate to being far left, my right, your left?

00:24:18.000 Or is the change that nobody wants to watch him, that he's losing them money.

00:24:22.000 Whenever the left tries to convince you that they are pro-free speech or that they are a Christian butt or that they are pro-Second Amendment, but you know that they are lying to you.

00:24:31.000 Same if they say something is unconstitutional.

00:24:34.000 These people supported the banning of folks like you.

00:24:38.000 Number three.

00:24:38.000 Oh, sorry, if it was about controlling his speech, they wouldn't have given him a year and a half.

00:24:43.000 Exactly.

00:24:44.000 It's like, hey, after these quarters, after we've already projected losing this money for the next year and a half, we are done losing money.

00:24:51.000 Right.

00:24:51.000 That's a violation of free speech.

00:24:53.000 If you're losing just $40 to $50 million a year, you get less than a tenth of the viewership that Letterman would get in his peak.

00:24:58.000 I get a changing media landscape, but the fact is, you're costing us like $50 million a year.

00:25:03.000 We're going to give you one year warning to get your affairs in order, plus a very generous severance package, I have no doubt.

00:25:08.000 And, you know, then we're probably going to run something that hopefully will be profitable for us.

00:25:12.000 That's when the left decides to put themselves at the front lines in harm's way for freedom of speech.

00:25:18.000 Not when millions of you were being banned and removed for opinions that were shared by half the country. 0.98

00:25:25.000 Moment number three, because I guess we're still doing this crap.

00:25:29.000 K-pop Demon Hunters won best animated feature. 0.69

00:25:32.000 So that matters.

00:25:33.000 Animated feature.

00:25:34.000 Yes.

00:25:34.000 Means cartoon, animated.

00:25:36.000 And the director, Maggie Kang, decided to use this as a moment to bitch about or be grateful that now they finally have representation. 0.99

00:25:45.000 It's 2026.

00:25:46.000 This is still going on.

00:25:48.000 Thank you to the Academy and to all the fans who got us here.

00:25:53.000 And for those of you who look like me, I'm so sorry that it took us so long to see us in a movie like this.

00:26:00.000 And it's here.

00:26:03.000 And that means that the next generations don't have to go longing.

00:26:07.000 This is for Korea and for Koreans everywhere.

00:26:10.000 Which Korea? 0.70

00:26:10.000 Also, we didn't see you. 0.70

00:26:12.000 Yeah, it's a cartoon.

00:26:14.000 We didn't see anybody.

00:26:15.000 And you're the director, right?

00:26:17.000 Oops.

00:26:17.000 None of this makes sense.

00:26:18.000 Here's another fast fact for you.

00:26:19.000 Parasite won best picture in 2020.

00:26:23.000 Yoon Yoo-young, if I'm saying that right, one best supporting actress for Minari in 2021.

00:26:27.000 And Maggie Kang is married to a white dude.

00:26:31.000 She could have just a very white dude by all.

00:26:34.000 Looks like D-Day's dad.

00:26:35.000 Like a skater.

00:26:38.000 The truth is, instead of going on about representation, because this is what we have to do now, everyone, they've lost their victim status, so they have to make one up.

00:26:45.000 And now it's so obvious.

00:26:46.000 The good news is it's ineffectual.

00:26:48.000 She really could have just cut her speech short.

00:26:52.000 And for those of you who look like me, I am so sorry.

00:27:00.000 You have to create some kind of glass ceiling.

00:27:02.000 It's like when Jennifer Lawrence came out after Hunger Games and she was like, you know, it's just great to be the first female lead in an action movie.

00:27:08.000 And people are like, what?

00:27:09.000 What?

00:27:10.000 It's not even remotely.

00:27:12.000 What?

00:27:12.000 No.

00:27:12.000 You have decades of leading ladies before you.

00:27:15.000 Yeah.

00:27:15.000 It's just, let's bring us to number four.

00:27:19.000 This is also why I try to avoid the infighting drama on the right with right-wing podcast bros all going like, I'll sit down for a debate, but I'm not going to keep doing the pot shots like people do.

00:27:28.000 Because the left does that.

00:27:29.000 The New Yorker decided to stir up some drama with Timothy Chalamé.

00:27:33.000 They put this tweet out throwing shade at him saying, Misty Copeland comes out of retirement to put Timothy Chalamé in his place during a live thinner's performance at the Oscars.

00:27:45.000 Who is Misty Copeland? 1.00

00:27:47.000 I guess a ballet dancer or opera or something because the tweet was supposedly a clapback toward these comments that Chalamé made regarding ballet and opera with the functionally retarded Matthew McConney. 0.98

00:28:00.000 Remember when a bunch of right-wing people tried to tell you he'd be a good governor? 0.96

00:28:03.000 Yeah, that retarded one. 1.00

00:28:04.000 I'm really right in the middle, Matthew, because I admire people when I've done it myself to go on a talk to go, hey, we got to keep movie theaters alive. 0.89

00:28:10.000 You know, we got to keep this genre alive.

00:28:12.000 And another part of me feels like if people want to see it like Barbie, like Oppenheimer, they're going to go see it and go out of their way to be loud and proud about it.

00:28:20.000 And I don't want to be working in ballet or opera or things where it's like, hey, keep this thing alive, even though no one cares about this anymore.

00:28:28.000 All respect to the ballet and opera people out there.

00:28:31.000 I just lost 14 cents in viewership. 0.99

00:28:35.000 Damn, I just took shots for no reason. 0.99

00:28:38.000 That's not a shot. 1.00

00:28:39.000 I hear what you're saying.

00:28:40.000 Bring out the ballet dancers.

00:28:43.000 That'll show him.

00:28:46.000 Nobody does care about that.

00:28:47.000 That's such a small part of the American audience.

00:28:49.000 Come on.

00:28:49.000 Like, fine.

00:28:51.000 Everything has to be a thing.

00:28:52.000 Oh, then sorry for the first time, but Korean directors like me who are not seen on camera can make this animated feature that people, like, people just liked the movie. 0.96

00:29:02.000 Just shut up. 1.00

00:29:04.000 This is a thing. 0.98

00:29:04.000 It's just, now I know that's funny to watch this with the Oscars, but take these people, put them in positions of power, and that's what you get in academia. 0.98

00:29:12.000 That's what you had with the Biden administration, right?

00:29:15.000 They share the same exact views as the modern Democrat Party.

00:29:20.000 Number five.

00:29:21.000 Of course, you knew this was going to happen because these people didn't get the memo.

00:29:25.000 Something, something Gaza, free, Palestine, and Javier Bardem.

00:29:30.000 Tell me about your pen you're wearing and why it was important to wear it tonight.

00:29:33.000 It's an artist for ceasefire pen, and what we are demanding is a ceasefire in Gaza.

00:29:39.000 And I think that I am supposed to have a platform, and this is the least I can do to use it.

00:29:45.000 And like, sometimes the news cycle is so fast and people move on, but the people in Gaza.

00:29:51.000 We made these pins a month ago.

00:29:53.000 This pin is a collaboration with an artist called Shepherd's Fairy.

00:29:58.000 It's an artist for a ceasefire, and we're demanding a permanent ceasefire.

00:30:01.000 Steve Cross right now.

00:30:03.000 There are bombings happening basically.

00:30:05.000 Destruction, displacements all over the world, you know, in Palestine, in Lebanon, and Aran, in Venezuela. 0.98

00:30:13.000 The next person's going to say, tear down that list.

00:30:15.000 This is happening in the U.S. Ice.

00:30:16.000 Ice as well, yes.

00:30:18.000 Ice as well.

00:30:19.000 This is a demand for a permanent ceasefire.

00:30:22.000 Not to war.

00:30:23.000 Not war.

00:30:28.000 A lot of politics talk tonight on the stage.

00:30:30.000 We did have Javier Bardem.

00:30:32.000 We know you're outspoken.

00:30:33.000 What was your reaction to hearing Javier call out for Palestine?

00:30:37.000 It was absolute pride and gratitude, obviously.

00:30:43.000 He is so outspoken and always has been.

00:30:46.000 And I really appreciate his voice in a room like that where literally no one else sends me.

00:30:53.000 Nice.

00:30:54.000 Yes, literally no one else.

00:30:56.000 Nobody.

00:30:56.000 This is what they do.

00:30:57.000 This is just, I'm so glad that you guys see the facade.

00:30:59.000 They act as though there's some form of oppression.

00:31:02.000 She was also thanking him.

00:31:03.000 Right.

00:31:04.000 As if she's Palestine. 1.00

00:31:05.000 Right.

00:31:06.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:31:07.000 Or she has anything to do with it at all.

00:31:09.000 What do you think would happen?

00:31:10.000 Okay, let me just put this in context.

00:31:11.000 This was done, I believe, at the Dolby Theater.

00:31:13.000 What do you think would happen if they just did this at a theater in Palestine? 0.96

00:31:18.000 How long before a barrage, just a hailstorm of missiles, of rockets just landed right on them to get rid of every single LGBTQ degenerate? 1.00

00:31:28.000 Like, how long do you think a group of them Palestine would last. 1.00

00:31:34.000 They would be shocked at the layup. 1.00

00:31:36.000 They'd be like, they're really going to come here and let us kill all of them? 0.94

00:31:39.000 You don't want to free Palestine, trust me. 1.00

00:31:41.000 Like, it's just. 0.62

00:31:44.000 Joy Reid earlier praising Mali, where they execute gay people, where they kill child soldiers, and them talking about wherever you line up. 0.94

00:31:44.000 Think about it. 0.94

00:31:55.000 And this is also, I have a problem with people who just go, no, no war.

00:31:59.000 Well, sure, no useless war, no endless war.

00:32:01.000 Well, yeah, but not all wars are endless.

00:32:04.000 The left, they're the ones who are the systems go, no war.

00:32:06.000 They're upset about Venezuela.

00:32:07.000 You think the Venezuelan people are?

00:32:10.000 We'll talk about Cuba, if not today.

00:32:12.000 It's developing.

00:32:13.000 We'll talk about them tomorrow.

00:32:14.000 Their baseball team is playing in the semifinals, Venezuela.

00:32:17.000 Good for them.

00:32:18.000 Seem pretty happy.

00:32:20.000 I don't know anything about baseball, but hey, good.

00:32:22.000 They're glad about it.

00:32:23.000 The people of Iran are glad about it.

00:32:25.000 The people of Cuba are now asking for it.

00:32:27.000 Doesn't mean that it's our job.

00:32:29.000 We only do it if it's in our interests.

00:32:31.000 But these people consistently side with the regimes who oppress their own people.

00:32:37.000 That's what you need to understand.

00:32:38.000 With a simplistic view, like no war, what that means is regimes should be allowed to destroy and kill their own people.

00:32:45.000 Same thing for Vietnam.

00:32:47.000 I agree with you that Vietnam was a very, very poorly executed war. 0.86

00:32:51.000 It became a quagmire.

00:32:53.000 But there is no doubt about communist Vietnamese killing their own people, torturing, like that's the reason that there was a conflict. 0.99

00:33:01.000 You guys do have to acknowledge that, right? 0.99

00:33:03.000 Here's a bonus because this guy's really gay. 0.96

00:33:06.000 Director David Bornstein, who I'm sure would fare fantastically in Palestine, compared Putin's Russia to President Trump's America. 0.97

00:33:18.000 Mr. Nobody Against Putin is about how you lose your country.

00:33:23.000 And what we saw when working with this footage, it's that you lose it through countless small little acts of complicity.

00:33:31.000 When we act complicit, when a government murders people on the streets of our major cities, when we don't say anything, when oligarchs take over the media and control how we can produce it and consume it.

00:33:51.000 Aren't the oligarchs in that room? 0.97

00:33:53.000 We all face a moral choice.

00:33:55.000 But luckily, even a nobody is more powerful than you think.

00:34:00.000 Yeah, but not if you had your way.

00:34:02.000 Banned.

00:34:03.000 Deplatformed for saying, you know what, kids don't need the COVID vaccine.

00:34:07.000 Remember, that was a ban.

00:34:09.000 All major conservatives who thought there might be election interference, banned.

00:34:14.000 Anyone who said that you cannot actually change your gender for a long time, suspended, banned.

00:34:20.000 There was a department of misinformation under the Biden administration.

00:34:26.000 The Hunter Biden laptop story, banned.

00:34:28.000 People censored.

00:34:30.000 So you think that the issue is, oh, people are not free to speak as you speak.

00:34:35.000 What they're really mad about is decreased viewership.

00:34:37.000 They think if people are given more options, like you right now watching on Rumble, by the way, download the Rumble app.

00:34:42.000 That's the best way to stay in touch.

00:34:44.000 You can actually, you get notifications when we're live.

00:34:46.000 They think that is a problem because they see decreased viewership on their dinosaur networks and then they go, oh, fewer people watching.

00:34:55.000 That must mean that we're being silenced.

00:34:58.000 He also went into more retarded depth on this backstage. 0.96

00:35:03.000 It seemed like you were making a parallel in your acceptance speech with what might be happening in America.

00:35:09.000 Do you see parallels or are we reading too much into it?

00:35:13.000 Well, one interesting thing about working with a team of Russians throughout this process has been my desire as an American to constantly compare the situation in America to Russia.

00:35:26.000 But a lot of my Russian colleagues and friends always said no.

00:35:29.000 No, it's not the same situation.

00:35:31.000 It's actually happening quicker in America.

00:35:33.000 Oh, it's not happening in Russia.

00:35:35.000 Trump was moving a lot quicker than Putin moved in his early years.

00:35:39.000 So that's kind of all I have to say to that.

00:35:41.000 Well, here's the thing: if you made that movie in Russia, you would never see the light of day again.

00:35:41.000 Yeah, okay.

00:35:44.000 You'd be arrested.

00:35:45.000 During his first year in office, Putin had his biggest media opponent arrested.

00:35:48.000 Oh, come on. 0.87

00:35:49.000 Hey, where are you guys speaking about Brazil?

00:35:52.000 Our friend Paulo Figueiredo, right, has to be in exile.

00:35:55.000 Bolsonaro's son.

00:35:56.000 I always forget the name of Alan.

00:35:59.000 Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:36:01.000 Alan DeSantis.

00:36:02.000 Arrested, right?

00:36:03.000 Jail.

00:36:04.000 There are regimes right now that arrest people, that arrest.

00:36:08.000 Hey, Canada.

00:36:10.000 Where are you during Canada when people have their bank accounts frozen?

00:36:13.000 Actual acts of fascism.

00:36:16.000 Well, maybe they're talking about maybe his biggest media opponent is Don Lemon being arrested for not for free speech, not for intimidating kids at a church.

00:36:26.000 Right.

00:36:27.000 Can you guys give us any example?

00:36:29.000 We can point you to examples of plenty of conservatives.

00:36:31.000 We just have myself.

00:36:33.000 You can look at the Twitter files.

00:36:34.000 You can look at the Gizmodo article where it was leaked.

00:36:36.000 You can look at demonetization.

00:36:37.000 You can look at the Vox apocalypse.

00:36:38.000 You can look at the Hunter Biden laptop story.

00:36:39.000 You look at those doctors during COVID in, I believe it was Orange County, California, banned, removed, saying that I believe they were talking about Iver Mecton as potential treatments.

00:36:48.000 You can look at Brett Weinstein.

00:36:52.000 Any examples that you guys have?

00:36:53.000 Any.

00:36:54.000 Even with Don Lemon, his videos weren't even taken down.

00:36:56.000 They weren't removed from social media.

00:36:58.000 He just may be charged with actually disrupting a private place of worship.

00:37:04.000 Anyone, any examples?

00:37:07.000 Because I just gave you about 10.

00:37:10.000 The silver lining is they're going to be increasingly detached from reality and people will be able to see it on full display. 0.99

00:37:18.000 The bad news is fewer people will see it because no one tunes into their crap anymore. 0.98

00:37:22.000 Well, that's also kind of good news, I guess. 0.98

00:37:24.000 It's kind of good news, but they don't do it.

00:37:25.000 I think they're really just pissed off because they don't have a monopoly on information anymore.

00:37:28.000 Exactly right.

00:37:29.000 They used to have it.

00:37:30.000 They're pissed off that people bought into the game to make sure that we preserved free speech and expression.

00:37:34.000 Right.

00:37:35.000 The thing that they're saying they should have. 1.00

00:37:37.000 Yeah, well, we've been the defenders of it, you morons. 0.99

00:37:39.000 Well, oh, by the way, someone be watching Marjorie Taylor Green right now. 1.00

00:37:41.000 She's on CNN.

00:37:42.000 She's a lover scorned. 1.00

00:37:44.000 She is everything that people talk about with covert, you know, femcons on the right, where now she's like, Donald Trump doesn't buy his own groceries. 1.00

00:37:51.000 Thomas Massey does.

00:37:53.000 He's at a Kroger.

00:37:54.000 Jewish space fighters.

00:37:56.000 All right. 1.00

00:37:57.000 She's an idiot. 1.00

00:37:58.000 She's always been an idiot, but when she was in, I was like, okay, you know, if she has to get some votes through, I'm just not going to talk about it. 1.00

00:38:03.000 She's a moron and she makes everything now personal. 1.00

00:38:05.000 She could use Instacart too. 1.00

00:38:06.000 It's for everybody.

00:38:07.000 Yeah, it's true.

00:38:08.000 But it's like, well, you think the president of the United States should be going to Kroger doing groceries?

00:38:13.000 He knows the price of eggs.

00:38:15.000 My gosh.

00:38:16.000 All right.

00:38:16.000 No, his wife should.

00:38:17.000 But when I say, and I've been saying this for a long time, sorry.

00:38:22.000 It's just a little misogynist joke.

00:38:24.000 Sorry, it's good.

00:38:24.000 It's good.

00:38:26.000 The media, entertainment, big tech industrial complex.

00:38:30.000 It's all the same thing when you talk about the Oscars and when you talk about media, when you talk about news.

00:38:35.000 That's why they really, really hate Pete Hegseth.

00:38:39.000 Because not only during a time of war right now do we have to fight or a time of military operation do we have to fight a foreign enemy who wants to kill all of us. 0.87

00:38:47.000 You have to fight a press who actually wants to carry the water for an Islamic fascist regime.

00:38:54.000 So two weeks into what's going on in Iran, and people are absolutely turning on President Trump, the American people.

00:39:02.000 Sorry, not the polls.

00:39:03.000 Even Adam Etton talked about it today, but at least if you believe the media, people are turning.

00:39:07.000 I'm disappointed because for one, to have Tropic Thunder and football highlights on a video about war is one of the more insensitive things that I've ever seen.

00:39:21.000 It isn't.

00:39:22.000 There are families here in our country whose loved ones have decided to give their life to fight for our rights and our freedoms who don't see war as a sport.

00:39:34.000 War doesn't deserve a highlight film.

00:39:37.000 For Tropic Thunder to be a part of it, war is not a comedy.

00:39:41.000 And for these people to be risking their lives not for our safety as much as for someone else's agenda.

00:39:50.000 That's not what the soldiers think.

00:39:51.000 That's what the regime is.

00:39:53.000 They're not upset about it.

00:39:53.000 It's not as serious, as unprofessional, as laughable, and as illegitimate as our leadership is right now, is embarrassing.

00:40:06.000 What's embarrassing is that you clearly referenced to thesaurus before that.

00:40:11.000 All the headlines have been negative.

00:40:12.000 And, you know, the polls, by the way, it's about 51, I think, as far as the American public, much higher with those in the military.

00:40:17.000 Meaning right now, wherever you line up on this, and I think there's a legitimate discussion to be had.

00:40:22.000 And like I said before, let's come back to this in three months.

00:40:26.000 I'm okay with it being a swift military operation and then whatever we need to do to sort of scale back.

00:40:32.000 As you know, operations were historically in recent America up until George Bush Sr.

00:40:38.000 Like they haven't always been forever wars.

00:40:40.000 If anything, seeing Venezuela and the first action in, I was about to say Cuba, in Iran, and seeing what may happen with Cuba shows you that, oh, wait, this is how it should be done. 0.60

00:40:51.000 And maybe have a little bit of trust that it's not going to be a forever war.

00:40:53.000 But right now, if you were to grab people on military bases across the globe, go, okay, what do you think?

00:40:58.000 We have a chance to take out the leaders of Iran and the RGC, yes or no? 0.96

00:41:04.000 Over 70% would say, I'd rather go than stay.

00:41:08.000 So you may disagree with those in uniform, but don't say they're dying for nothing because that's what bothers them.

00:41:14.000 Not people saying, hey, a crazy regime needs to be taken out.

00:41:16.000 But the entire amount of, what were we about to say?

00:41:20.000 I was about to say, so he's a sports guy.

00:41:22.000 He thinks there should be highlight reels for athletes who are putting nothing but their bodies on the line and maybe getting a little bit dinged up, as opposed to people going and fighting for your freedoms.

00:41:29.000 Right.

00:41:29.000 We shouldn't celebrate and highlight what they're doing, but a guy catching a pass in the end zone, that's fine.

00:41:34.000 Yeah.

00:41:34.000 The coverage in the media has been entirely negative.

00:41:36.000 Entirely negative.

00:41:37.000 You can look at the Atlantic, MS Now, the New York Times, where they just talk about how, well, the U.S. capability is showing signs of rot.

00:41:45.000 Well, questions of whether Trump is clueless about Iran.

00:41:47.000 It's why.

00:41:47.000 In other words, it's a foregone conclusion.

00:41:49.000 Of course, Iran is stupid. 1.00

00:41:50.000 Of course, the troops who support it must be stupid, but we support the troops because we don't want them to, but the troops think that you're actually wrong and you're undermining them. 1.00

00:41:56.000 Of course, the people of Iran are stupid. 1.00

00:41:58.000 Of course, those who actually have access to confidential information regarding the capabilities of the Republic of Iran are stupid. 1.00

00:42:05.000 But we know, and so we want to make sure that everybody out there hears that the United States is being defeated. 0.99

00:42:10.000 That's the separate issue here, is the defeatism from the media.

00:42:15.000 You think that honors those who've lost their lives?

00:42:18.000 You think that honors people who are there to fight for our country?

00:42:20.000 So Secretary of War Hegseth specifically addressed this.

00:42:23.000 I think he did it incredibly well.

00:42:24.000 I'm going to show you a short clip, his setup, and then go through each example and give you references.

00:42:29.000 Here's Pete Hegseth.

00:42:31.000 With every passing hour, we know, and we know they know that the military capabilities of their evil regime are crumbling.

00:42:39.000 They can barely communicate, let alone coordinate.

00:42:42.000 They're confused, and we know it.

00:42:44.000 Our response, we will keep pressing.

00:42:47.000 We will keep pushing, keep advancing.

00:42:50.000 No quarter, no mercy for our enemies.

00:42:55.000 Yet some in this crew, in the press, just can't stop.

00:42:59.000 Allow me to make a few suggestions.

00:43:02.000 People look up at the TV and they see banners, they see headlines.

00:43:06.000 I used to be in that business, and I know that everything is written intentionally.

00:43:12.000 Yeah, and we're about to get through the very specific examples where they've tried to paint it as though the United States is getting shellacked or losing.

00:43:18.000 Do you think, even with the poll showing a majority of Americans and an overwhelming majority of people in the military support it, and a super majority of Republicans do, do you think that number would be higher if people knew how effective we were being and how desperate the Iranian regime is and that they've been forced underground and that their numbers are dwindling?

00:43:38.000 Do you think that, because most people don't know that, let's go to the first example.

00:43:42.000 Absolutely right.

00:43:43.000 If I think that an operation is not going very well, I'm going to disapprove of it.

00:43:46.000 And you're going to think those who made the decision made the wrong judgment call.

00:43:49.000 Like, oh my gosh, you walked into another Vietnam. 1.00

00:43:51.000 You walked into another Iraq. 1.00

00:43:52.000 That's when I go, wow, the president made a bad decision.

00:43:54.000 Right.

00:43:55.000 All people underneath him.

00:43:55.000 As Secretary of War, a bad decision.

00:43:57.000 His general's bad decision.

00:43:58.000 That's what I'm thinking.

00:43:59.000 If it goes south.

00:44:00.000 Well, otherwise people say, hey, quick, decisive military action that is protective of America.

00:44:05.000 Well, they're supportive of that.

00:44:07.000 Well, maybe the information that Secretary Hagseth delivers next might actually affect it.

00:44:12.000 But remember, it's media blackett on this.

00:44:13.000 Here you go.

00:44:15.000 For example, a banner or a headline.

00:44:17.000 Mideast war intensifies, splashing on the screen the last couple of days alongside visuals of civilian or energy targets that Iran has hit because that's what they do. 0.95

00:44:28.000 What should the banner read instead?

00:44:31.000 How about Iran increasingly desperate? 0.94

00:44:34.000 Because they are.

00:44:36.000 They know it, and so do you, if it can be admitted.

00:44:40.000 Yeah, here's the truth.

00:44:42.000 Iran is desperate, objectively.

00:44:43.000 Since the start of the war, missile launches are down 90%.

00:44:47.000 Drones, down 95%.

00:44:50.000 And so they're now striking just civilian infrastructure to lash out because that's all they have left.

00:44:55.000 That would be a sign of desperation.

00:44:57.000 Here's the next example that he points to.

00:44:59.000 Oh, President Trump didn't think about the Strait of Hormuz, and we'll give you some more clips so you know the truth.

00:45:04.000 Or more fake news from CNN.

00:45:07.000 Reports that the Trump administration underestimated the Iran war's impact on the Strait of Hormuz. 0.80

00:45:13.000 Patently ridiculous, of course.

00:45:16.000 For decades, Iran has threatened shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. 0.77

00:45:19.000 This is always what they do, hold the strait hostage. 1.00

00:45:23.000 CNN doesn't think we thought of that.

00:45:26.000 It's a fundamentally unserious report.

00:45:30.000 The sooner David Ellison takes over that network, the better.

00:45:35.000 Here's the truth.

00:45:36.000 That's exactly right.

00:45:37.000 And this is something that people don't take into account.

00:45:40.000 The Strait of Hormuz, as Mark Arubio was discussing, before you get to actually having nukes, right, even though they had enriched uranium past 60%, you get to a point where think of them having basically their own Iron Dome where they have so many short-range missiles, they have so many drones that no one would be able to stop them from building a nuke.

00:45:58.000 Also, no one would be able to stop them from holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage, meaning they don't need to at that point have nukes.

00:46:05.000 They just need to make sure that they can control any ships going in and out.

00:46:08.000 And they were getting close to that point.

00:46:10.000 That's a big reason that we went in.

00:46:12.000 Imagine a nuclear Iran or an Iran that no one could bridle holding the Strait of Hormuz hostage. 0.95

00:46:19.000 And by the way, they've made those threats many, many, many, many times.

00:46:22.000 President Trump addressed this on Air Force One specifically.

00:46:51.000 Because, you know, they were going to blow up the Middle East. 1.00

00:46:54.000 If I didn't terminate the Obama horrible deal, the Iran nuclear deal that's going to be, if I didn't terminate that in my first term, they would have already had a nuclear weapon and they would have used it immediately upon getting it. 0.83

00:47:06.000 All right.

00:47:07.000 Next example that Secretary Hagseth calls out.

00:47:09.000 The media talking about how, oh, the war is actually, it's getting pretty close and it's widening.

00:47:15.000 Another example of a fake headline that I saw yesterday.

00:47:19.000 War widening.

00:47:21.000 Here's a real headline for you for an actual patriotic press.

00:47:25.000 How about Iran shrinking, going underground? 0.98

00:47:29.000 You see, Iran's leaders are hiding in bunkers and moving into civilian areas.

00:47:33.000 The only thing that is widening is our advantage.

00:47:38.000 Not to mention our Gulf partners stepping up even more, now going on the offense, and have always been with us on the defense with collective and integrated air defenses.

00:47:49.000 Yeah, and that's absolutely true.

00:47:50.000 You can check the references.

00:47:51.000 Whether you agree with the conflict or the intervention from the United States or not, the Iranian regime is shrinking.

00:47:58.000 They're hiding.

00:47:58.000 They're underground.

00:47:59.000 Some examples like the IRGC and the, well, the Iran's army.

00:48:03.000 They have like this growing rift right now.

00:48:05.000 Army personnel are being denied medical care by the IRGC.

00:48:08.000 Jeez.

00:48:08.000 The new Ayatollah for a very short Ayatollah for a very short period of time, hiding allegedly in Russia after recovering from surgery.

00:48:16.000 Intelligence also suggests that he's a homosexual.

00:48:19.000 So we can bring up a lot of people. 0.97

00:48:22.000 Save the tall buildings for him, guys.

00:48:24.000 Two of the sources said the intelligence indicated that Machaba, who earned the nickname the power behind the robes while serving as his aging dad's gatekeeper, has had a long-term sexual relationship with his childhood tutor.

00:48:38.000 Also, there seems to be some video evidence from where he's recovering that would suggest this is the case.

00:48:48.000 What do you call a thousand Jews jinned together at the bottom of the ocean?

00:48:56.000 I don't know.

00:48:58.000 A good start.

00:49:07.000 Yes, yes.

00:49:08.000 I love AI. 0.97

00:49:09.000 We inserted the new Ayatollah into the scene from Philadelphia in which Tom Hanks is dying from AIDS due to sexual homosexual activity. 0.98

00:49:17.000 Perfect.

00:49:19.000 Didn't this guy go to France like four times for ED treatments?

00:49:22.000 Like he really wants to have some fun from behind, it seems.

00:49:25.000 It's almost as if Allah is telling him, no, no.

00:49:28.000 Right.

00:49:29.000 And he says, I'll get a pill.

00:49:30.000 No ED pills in heaven with your 72 virgins. 0.97

00:49:34.000 They're male virgins. 0.77

00:49:35.000 Here's the thing.

00:49:37.000 Like we said, being able to, does any of that change your view?

00:49:40.000 Have you believed some of the propaganda that, oh my gosh, the Iranians are putting up a good fight?

00:49:43.000 And you know, this is getting worse.

00:49:45.000 This is getting hairy.

00:49:46.000 No, they're shrinking.

00:49:48.000 It's like a BOA constrictor in the sense that their launching capabilities, their drones, their missiles, they decrease, and then we close in that space, and it never comes back.

00:49:59.000 When you want to talk about a swift, effective military operation, you can't just take everything out at once, but you take out a few options on the table, you box them in, and we're boxing them in more and more and more where they really don't have a whole lot more to offer in their own defense.

00:50:15.000 Yeah.

00:50:15.000 But all Tucker Carlson and the gang can talk about, and this makes the point because it really does start to shift public perception, is we have abandoned our partners in the Gulf states.

00:50:24.000 We've moved all of the assets to defend them against missiles out of there and into Israel.

00:50:28.000 Now they're pissed at us and they're not doing anything where Hagseth comes on and says, these guys are actually going on the offensive with us.

00:50:33.000 You think these guys like the fact that they controlled the strait and could basically just extort them at whatever point they wanted to?

00:50:40.000 Yeah.

00:50:40.000 We're having massive successes there with some issues.

00:50:43.000 It's not going to be easy, but it never is.

00:50:45.000 It's a country of 90 plus million people.

00:50:47.000 I watched Tucker Carlson as well.

00:50:48.000 I know the number now because apparently that's important.

00:50:50.000 Well, here's the thing.

00:50:51.000 You can disagree with the operation.

00:50:53.000 What you can't do is take the truth and just invert it to justify our disagreement.

00:50:58.000 It's going to ruin our coalition.

00:50:59.000 Well, the truth is the opposite.

00:51:00.000 It strengthened our coalition because people in this region, they see the opportunity.

00:51:05.000 They've also been subject to a lot of the terrorism, a lot of the instability of Iran.

00:51:10.000 None of them want this regime to be in power.

00:51:12.000 And they're actually now getting more involved.

00:51:14.000 So you can say you disagree with the operation.

00:51:16.000 Got it.

00:51:17.000 Well, you can't say this operation is going to destroy the coalition.

00:51:19.000 The opposite.

00:51:20.000 Well, you can't say this operation, you're killing innocent Iranians. 0.67

00:51:22.000 The Iranians want it.

00:51:23.000 Just to be clear, the overwhelming majority, over 80% of the Iranian people want it.

00:51:28.000 You can't say, well, that's because it's boots on the ground.

00:51:31.000 And this is a record number lost.

00:51:34.000 Of course, every life lost is a tragedy.

00:51:37.000 Our troops shouldn't be going, well, they support it.

00:51:39.000 But you can't just take your foregone conclusion when in the face of reality, use it as your premise to oppose something.

00:51:50.000 The opposite of what these people have told you is reality.

00:51:54.000 The war is not widening.

00:51:55.000 It's shrinking.

00:51:56.000 They are not putting up a good fight.

00:51:57.000 They're unable to put up a fight.

00:51:59.000 Those in our military are not of the view, no more forever wars.

00:52:04.000 They view this as a swift military action that won't turn into a forever war.

00:52:08.000 We need to be honest about it if we're going to have a conversation as to the appropriate measures for the United States to take in the realm of their own protection.

00:52:19.000 And by the way, the more President Trump's foreign policy is in focus, the more Marco Rubio comes to the forefront.

00:52:24.000 So this actually is a Cal Sheet check-in.

00:52:27.000 It looks like him being a Republican nominee is up 8% since the war in Iran.

00:52:32.000 So he's up to 27.

00:52:33.000 Vance is down to a 38% likelihood.

00:52:35.000 That's minus 6 since the start.

00:52:37.000 Who are you liking between the two right now?

00:52:39.000 You guys let me know.

00:52:40.000 That's kind of a big discussion taking place.

00:52:41.000 Was literally Tucker Carlson listed on there.

00:52:43.000 It's like 2%.

00:52:45.000 Yeah.

00:52:45.000 That makes sense because.

00:52:46.000 Wait, he's being investigated.

00:52:47.000 I'm sorry.

00:52:48.000 There's no evidence of it.

00:52:49.000 No charges have come forward yet.

00:52:50.000 It may not actually be a thing.

00:52:51.000 It may not be a thing.

00:52:52.000 He's reading my text.

00:52:53.000 Maybe they are.

00:52:53.000 I don't know.

00:52:54.000 Maybe you were talking to a foreign adversary, you asshole. 1.00

00:52:57.000 Well, I will tell you this. 1.00

00:52:58.000 They wouldn't be reading his text.

00:52:59.000 They'd be reading the other guy.

00:53:00.000 They'll be reading the other guy's text.

00:53:01.000 Yes.

00:53:01.000 Yeah.

00:53:01.000 So some people have sort of refuted it, said it's not a thing.

00:53:04.000 The only reason we know it is because he came out and talked about it.

00:53:06.000 We'll see what we're seeing.

00:53:07.000 I want to reserve judgment on that.

00:53:08.000 I have no idea.

00:53:08.000 The only information I have is what Tucker delivered to his audience that they were trying to frame him for a crime and that he was, in fact, talking with some people in Iran.

00:53:17.000 But I know plenty.

00:53:18.000 We've talked to people in Iran before the internet went out, just to be clear.

00:53:20.000 Like plenty of people we know who have family members and folks like talk to folks, press, people who are there undercover in Iran.

00:53:26.000 Like that's that's not a crime.

00:53:28.000 You wouldn't be charged.

00:53:29.000 I do know that.

00:53:30.000 All right, going on.

00:53:31.000 Oh, speaking of Rubio and Vance, no, I like both of them.

00:53:37.000 John Oliver, who kind of disappeared for a minute, but then I realized he still does his once-a-week show for like a very limited season.

00:53:43.000 He did an entire segment criticizing JD Vance and trying to make the case as to why he's awful.

00:53:50.000 But no surprise there.

00:53:51.000 It's time for the latest installment of John Oliver is a big fat busy. 1.00

00:53:56.000 I am a pussy. 0.99

00:53:57.000 And that is frankly a wild thing to say. 1.00

00:53:59.000 I'm telling you, I am a pussy. 0.99

00:54:01.000 Oh, sorry if this is how you found out. 1.00

00:54:03.000 But I'm telling you that I am a pussy god. 0.99

00:54:10.000 Still, top five stingers. 1.00

00:54:12.000 Pretty good.

00:54:12.000 We'll do this as a claim truth, provide you with the references.

00:54:15.000 Here's the first claim that John Oliver makes.

00:54:17.000 Go watch his entire segment in context.

00:54:19.000 It's free on YouTube.

00:54:21.000 No risk of being demonetized there. 0.96

00:54:23.000 First claim is, you guessed it, JD Vance, well, is a racist, just like you and promotes racism. 0.94

00:54:29.000 It's so tired. 1.00

00:54:30.000 In Vance's vast amount of time online, he's ended up promoting some flagrantly racist bullshit. 0.98

00:54:36.000 It tends to get forgotten, but Trump's whole they're eating the dogs, they're eating the cats meltdown in the presidential debate came after Vance elevated a false rumor that Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio were eating people's pets. 0.97

00:54:48.000 You didn't turn it into a meme about cats.

00:54:50.000 You shared misinformation that turned a whole town upside down.

00:54:54.000 Okay, so here's the truth.

00:54:56.000 It wasn't just about the dogs and the cats and the ducks, and we'll get to that in a second. 0.93

00:55:00.000 Haitian migrants did ruin that town. 1.00

00:55:02.000 It overwhelmed Springfield, Ohio, and the residents were really concerned.

00:55:06.000 You had 20,000 Haitians in a town of 60,000 people.

00:55:10.000 The schools were overwhelmed.

00:55:11.000 Kids didn't speak English whatsoever.

00:55:13.000 And there were plenty of reports and 911 calls that Haitians there were eating geese and ducks in the park.

00:55:20.000 They would eat dirt cookies.

00:55:23.000 This is where they come from a place.

00:55:25.000 You know that, right?

00:55:25.000 They eat dirt cookies.

00:55:27.000 Why wouldn't they eat anything that actually has meat on it?

00:55:29.000 They just see it as free food.

00:55:31.000 And of course, the media doesn't want to actually do investigative work, fact-check whether it's true or false, dive into the 911 calls, the calls to the authorities.

00:55:39.000 Hey, they're stealing the geese again.

00:55:41.000 They're eating them.

00:55:42.000 So they just want to tell you that's a lie.

00:55:43.000 When that wasn't the only issue, the issue was about migrants taking over towns in the United States and displacing Americans, putting them out of work, ruining their schools, skyrocketing crime. 0.97

00:55:55.000 All that is observable, but instead, John Oliver just says something racist.

00:56:00.000 Also, as it relates to the geese, we actually have an exclusive interview with a resident of Springfield, Ohio, who would like to remain anonymous.

00:56:09.000 They ate my brother.

00:56:12.000 We've been taking care of his little goslings, but they're pretty shook up.

00:56:18.000 See, John Oliver doesn't speak for that person, the little guy.

00:56:20.000 They don't talk about the victims, do they?

00:56:22.000 No, they don't.

00:56:23.000 They're real victims.

00:56:23.000 They don't.

00:56:24.000 Next.

00:56:26.000 I know.

00:56:27.000 By the way, we're live, 11 a.m. Eastern weekdays, if you're watching the clip.

00:56:32.000 He makes this claim.

00:56:33.000 This is so tired.

00:56:34.000 We've debunked this many times.

00:56:36.000 John Oliver is so lazy, he doesn't actually develop new arguments.

00:56:40.000 He just has people, he just has his people hand him one that was a talking point about, I don't know, three years ago and still goes with that.

00:56:48.000 So here's what it is: Illegals don't drive up hospital or housing costs.

00:56:53.000 On immigration, he's argued that while he bears no personal animus toward immigrants, they're the cause of many problems Americans face.

00:57:00.000 He's claimed we're bankrupting a lot of hospitals by forcing them to provide care for people who don't have the legal right to be in our country.

00:57:06.000 And he said that illegal aliens competing with Americans for scarce homes is one of the most significant drivers of home prices in the country.

00:57:13.000 Two assertions, by the way, that have been soundly rejected by experts.

00:57:17.000 Yeah, experts, he cites Washington Post, CBS News, and PolitiFact.

00:57:20.000 I believe it was PolitiFact who didn't know if Ilon Omar married her brother.

00:57:27.000 Truth.

00:57:28.000 Of course, everything JD Vance said is correct.

00:57:30.000 And here's the beauty of an elitist like John Oliver, who's not even from this country.

00:57:34.000 He doesn't have to live with the consequences, but you do.

00:57:36.000 Numbers, more than half of both legal and illegal immigrants use at least one or more welfare programs.

00:57:43.000 Over half.

00:57:44.000 If you go to just illegals, I bet you that number is much higher. 1.00

00:57:47.000 Those are difficult to track.

00:57:48.000 So we give you the numbers that we actually can find.

00:57:50.000 It exceeds those who are born in the U.S. by a wide, wide margin.

00:57:55.000 And illegal aliens cost the U.S. taxpayer anywhere from $150 billion to $451 billion per year.

00:58:03.000 That's what they cost you, period.

00:58:04.000 As it relates to housing, there have been quite a few studies done on this.

00:58:09.000 For each percentage of an increase in immigration that you see, so the percentage of immigrants in this country goes up by 1%, you see a 3.5 average housing price increase.

00:58:22.000 Okay?

00:58:22.000 And when you talk about those on welfare services, again, the media, people like John Oliver, his view is it's already been soundly debunked.

00:58:31.000 They don't want to research it.

00:58:32.000 So it's hard to find the numbers.

00:58:34.000 But when you, in the very rare instances, look, it's worse than you think.

00:58:38.000 In 2025, illegals cost Texas, the state of Texas, hospitals, a billion dollars.

00:58:45.000 What?

00:58:45.000 I was told that that's Texas alone.

00:58:48.000 No way.

00:58:48.000 2025, Texas, $1 billion.

00:58:51.000 Go check the references.

00:58:52.000 They use the emergency room as their primary health care provider.

00:58:56.000 Right.

00:58:56.000 And they can't be turned away, right?

00:58:58.000 No, they can't.

00:58:58.000 No.

00:58:59.000 Yeah.

00:58:59.000 They can't.

00:59:00.000 And here's the big difference, right?

00:59:02.000 I'm not patting myself on the.

00:59:04.000 He just says, it's been soundly debunked and shows you a little headline thing.

00:59:08.000 I am giving you the numbers as to why he is wrong.

00:59:11.000 You may say that one of them is not complete enough, but I just gave you three or four and I'm giving you the references.

00:59:16.000 John Oliver doesn't do that.

00:59:18.000 He wants to tell you what to think.

00:59:19.000 He doesn't want to allow you to think or encourage you to learn how to think.

00:59:25.000 Here's the next claim that he makes.

00:59:29.000 That Vance contradicted himself when he supported President Trump on Venezuela.

00:59:35.000 He's trying to paint.

00:59:35.000 It's the same old thing.

00:59:36.000 You're either a racist or you're a hypocrite. 1.00

00:59:38.000 This one's the hypocrite argument. 1.00

00:59:40.000 He's also relentlessly defended his boss's moves, even when they directly contradict his prior beliefs, like his anti-interventionist approach to foreign policy. 0.99

00:59:49.000 When people criticized last year's U.S. strikes in the waters of Venezuela, calling them a war crime, he replied on Twitter, I don't give a shit what you call it. 0.65

00:59:58.000 And when Trump decided to first strike Iran last year, Vance defended him and didn't even try to come up with a good rationalization. 0.77

01:00:05.000 I certainly empathize with Americans who are exhausted after 25 years of foreign entanglements in the Middle East. 0.75

01:00:12.000 I understand the concern, but the difference is that back then we had dumb presidents and now we have a president who actually knows how to accomplish America's national security objectives. 0.98

01:00:23.000 Yeah, it wasn't okay before because the presidents were stupid heads who wait dumb for breakfast, but now we have a big, strong real estate developer and stake salesman to give us the national security expertise we so badly need. 0.99

01:00:34.000 So it's completely fine. 1.00

01:00:36.000 Yeah, here's the truth.

01:00:37.000 There's nothing hypocritical about what Vance has said. 0.98

01:00:39.000 And again, he didn't just say dumb, smart. 0.95

01:00:42.000 He said, now you have a president who is very capable and clear in accomplishing objectives for the United States. 0.98

01:00:48.000 He says, people who called them war crimes, you.

01:00:50.000 Why would you expect JD Vance to agree with leftists like you? 0.99

01:00:54.000 Also, he definitely called George Bush dumb. 0.99

01:00:57.000 Yes. 0.99

01:00:58.000 There.

01:00:59.000 There you go.

01:01:00.000 Yeah, you could find it.

01:01:01.000 You guys should.

01:01:01.000 10 examples you could probably find.

01:01:02.000 And on common ground, 130 plus narco-terrorists were killed with those boat strikes.

01:01:08.000 And then, of course, you have Venezuela, Maduro, all right, taken out.

01:01:11.000 Those people dancing in the streets, are we in a war with Venezuela?

01:01:15.000 That's quite different.

01:01:16.000 It's also why it's a disservice to compare everything to Iraq.

01:01:20.000 We used to be pretty swift with military action.

01:01:23.000 That was kind of the norm.

01:01:24.000 And then the exception became the norm, and you can blame George Bush Sr., you can blame Barack Obama, George Bush Jr., yep.

01:01:31.000 That's not how war or military intervention from the United States typically looks.

01:01:35.000 With Iran, every president has been saying that something needs to be done. 1.00

01:01:39.000 And this is the first president who has done something. 0.91

01:01:41.000 You may disagree with it, but to say that Vance is a hypocrite, here he is before his VP nomination supporting an aggressive approach on Iran.

01:01:50.000 Nuclear deterrence is maybe the most important thing that we have. 0.84

01:01:54.000 You have to make it so that you don't just have 30, 40, 50 countries all with nuclear warheads pointing at each other.

01:02:01.000 That's sort of how you reach a truly apocalyptic situation.

01:02:03.000 So I think we have to be really willing to go very far to prevent the Iranians from taking that final step. 1.00

01:02:09.000 And if, God forbid, they get there, then I think you have to be willing to take some extreme steps if they're going to be effective to ensure that they don't have a broader nuclear capability that they can't launch nuclear missiles all over the Middle East or even all over the world.

01:02:24.000 So look, I think we have to be aggressive with this.

01:02:26.000 And I come at this from a position of some restraint in foreign policy.

01:02:29.000 I think war often leads to unintended consequences, but preventing Iran from getting a bomb, really, really, really important. 0.80

01:02:38.000 Seems pretty, by the way, he's also against forever wars.

01:02:43.000 So am I. Not every war, not every military action is a forever war.

01:02:49.000 Just understand that when you say these things, you're playing into the hands of the left.

01:02:54.000 JD Vance can say, I don't want useless military intervention.

01:02:56.000 And again, he said, provided that we're really clear and effective in accomplishing our objectives.

01:03:04.000 And this is a through line I see with people in the military across the board.

01:03:07.000 They felt like quite, especially with Iraq, the objectives were ever shifting due to the political winds.

01:03:12.000 Same thing with Vietnam. 0.56

01:03:14.000 What happens when you look at places that become sort of quagmires, Vietnam, Iraq, those are places where you're dealing with an outlier where the winds of political opinions shifted the policy, the approach, the rules of engagement from midterm to midterm.

01:03:30.000 Afghanistan too, by the way.

01:03:31.000 Yeah, Afghanistan too.

01:03:33.000 We killed Bin Laden way before we pulled out.

01:03:36.000 There you go.

01:03:37.000 And that was changed drastically.

01:03:39.000 Here's another one, too, which brings us to what Oliver's real problem is, just like Black Lives Matter, just like Antifa, just like feminists. 1.00

01:03:46.000 John Oliver hates the idea of strong nuclear traditional families in the United States because that's what allows us to prevent this country from becoming, you know, the UK. 0.98

01:03:56.000 So what he wants to do is fearmonger and tell you that JD Vance wants to put you back into the 1950s by forcing women to remain in abusive relationships, something like that.

01:04:07.000 In fact, the only concrete action he took during his two years in the Senate when it comes to child care policy was introduced the failed Fairness for Stay-at-Home Parents Act, which focused on helping parents who decided to leave the workforce altogether.

01:04:21.000 And if you're getting the sense that what he really wants is to turn the clock back to the 1950s, you're getting war.

01:04:27.000 Sounds good.

01:04:28.000 Especially given he's also expressed reservations about no-fault divorce.

01:04:32.000 And this is one of the great tricks that I think the sexual revolution pulled on the American populace, which is this idea that, like, well, okay, these marriages were fundamentally, you know, they were maybe even violent, but certainly they were unhappy.

01:04:46.000 And so getting rid of them and making it easier for people to shift spouses like they changed their underwear, that's going to make people happier in the long term.

01:04:54.000 And maybe it worked out for the moms and dads, though I'm skeptical, but it really didn't work out for the kids of those marriages.

01:05:01.000 Yeah, he said we shouldn't have made it so easy for people to leave violent marriages.

01:05:06.000 No, that's actually not what he said.

01:05:08.000 And here's the truth.

01:05:09.000 We absolutely should get rid of no-fault divorce. 0.96

01:05:12.000 It has been a disaster.

01:05:13.000 Ronald Reagan, who I believe when he was governor, was one of the first states to do it, said it was one of his greatest regrets.

01:05:19.000 Before no-fault divorce, if a man was beating the crap out of a woman, that was a fault, and she could leave and he would pay. 1.00

01:05:28.000 If he was cheating, that was a fault.

01:05:30.000 And she could leave and he would pay.

01:05:32.000 You still have that in some states that don't have the exact framework of the current no-fault divorce.

01:05:38.000 Here's where we are now: divorces are filed 69% to 80% from women these days.

01:05:46.000 Okay.

01:05:47.000 The national number, I believe, is 69%.

01:05:49.000 That number is far higher in states that have basically carte blanche no-fault divorce.

01:05:54.000 That's where it goes up to like 80%.

01:05:55.000 If they both have college degrees, it's always hovering around 80%.

01:05:58.000 Nationally, it's 69%.

01:06:00.000 And they do it for minor reasons.

01:06:01.000 Physical abuse, infidelity are not the top five, even amongst the top five or top three reasons listed, depending on the year.

01:06:09.000 Just to be clear, there used to be a fault.

01:06:13.000 Abuse, infidelity.

01:06:15.000 If not, if you're divorcing for a minor reason, you refuse to work it out.

01:06:18.000 That's abandonment.

01:06:19.000 And then you are at fault.

01:06:21.000 Kentucky, to give you an example, Kentucky made a law that just during divorce, okay, 50-50 custody.

01:06:30.000 Right?

01:06:31.000 They just changed the law as opposed to women being the default case in custody. 0.92

01:06:35.000 50-50 custody.

01:06:36.000 I mean, okay, if you guys want to get divorced, so it's not even changing no-fault.

01:06:38.000 Guess what?

01:06:39.000 Divorce rates declined by 25% because there wasn't a multi-billion dollar divorce industry who wanted to use it as leverage so that fathers would pay more money to get more time with their kids.

01:06:50.000 Has no-fault divorce strengthened marriages in the United States?

01:06:56.000 Has it made families stronger?

01:06:58.000 The answer is unequivocally no, and it was based on a lie.

01:07:01.000 And of course, what they do is if you believe, if you want this for the best sake of the children, which is what JD Vance was saying, he goes, well, then why don't you want to pay for insert all the social programs here?

01:07:14.000 Their solution, if you listen to John Oliver's video, is, all right, no-fault divorce.

01:07:18.000 Then we need to have taxpayer-funded daycare open-ended, as opposed to, if we go back to the 50s, we're talking about single-income household where someone can be home with the kids rather than displacing your finances so that somebody else raises your children and you can leave whenever you want because the guy left toenails in the bathtub or whatever it is.

01:07:39.000 No, let's go back to discouraging a culture of divorce. 0.99

01:07:43.000 Let's go back to the point where we can have one person in the household, but they can't acknowledge that everything to have come from the women's sexual revolution of the 60s has made women fatter, sicker, more mentally unwell, and children have worse outcomes because they're being raised in very often broken homes. 0.98

01:08:02.000 In the entire episode, there's only one claim that Oliver made that seems even remotely, let alone completely true.

01:08:11.000 JD Varns will become president.

01:08:14.000 This has been John Oliver is a big fancy. 1.00

01:08:18.000 I am a pussy. 1.00

01:08:19.000 And that is frankly a wild thing to say. 1.00

01:08:21.000 I'm telling you, I am a pussy. 0.99

01:08:22.000 Oh, sorry if this is how you found out. 1.00

01:08:24.000 But I'm telling you that I am a pussy god. 0.99

01:08:31.000 And I've gone a little over time. 0.99

01:08:33.000 I apologize.
