00:02:21.000Hey, before we move on with the show, we are going to have Alex Jones on this show and go through, of course, the new recent, I should say, not new, Colorado ruling.
00:02:29.000This is the last standard daily live show of the year.
00:02:32.000Tomorrow is the Christmas extravaganza special, whatever we call it, where Santa does some good around the community.
00:02:40.000So if you just want something that's You know, heartwarming, non-political.
00:02:43.000I often warn you and say this is a PG-13.
00:02:46.000Just wanted to take this opportunity to let you know that tomorrow is absolutely a G program and it's something you can watch with your children.
00:02:53.000And I need to say that because you're about to see the OG of cancelled comedy, Nick DiPaolo's stand-up reel, which is absolutely not rated G. But I wanted to take a moment to thank you guys here in the spirit of Christmas.
00:03:22.000Because of you, we brought on Nick DiPaolo, Alex Jones' show, of course, that you now get on Fridays, The Hodge Twins, Brian Callen, Mr. Guns and Gears, a contributor, and we are expanding.
00:03:33.000And because of you, we get to continue doing this program.
00:03:37.000Without having to serve corporate overlords.
00:03:41.000As much as I know that sounds like some kid at Hot Topic who just read Karl Marx.
00:04:44.000And of course, if you sign up, you get a copy of this children's book, Beautiful Differences, that I wrote as a love letter to my children, hopefully as a time capsule.
00:05:52.000That's the best we can do for the greatest coach in the history of the NFL.
00:05:56.000A brick structure up to exit 13A where truckers who have been living on hooker p***y and beef jerky for 14 hours Can unload their impacted bowels.
00:06:05.000Where gay guys can exchange filthy jobs at 3am.
00:06:08.000And where pedophiles can come into the faces of terrified children.
00:06:13.000You know, the shit that Vince Lombardi was for.
00:11:02.000Because before the show, I told Kat Morgan, I said, I'm very tired today, so if I misspeak, my rule of thumb's like, just make fun of me, or if I say something that's incorrect, please just make fun of me, that way they can admonish me so that people don't think that I'm losing my fa- I'm running on a couple of hours sleep.
00:11:39.000By the way, have some smelling salts if you need them.
00:11:41.000Also, May 11th, Count Basie Center for the Arts.
00:11:44.000You get to go see the OG of canceled comedy, Nick DiPaolo in Red Bank, New Jersey.
00:11:49.000Cannot recommend it, and I don't know how much longer he's going to tour.
00:11:53.000He really likes doing this show and his show, and he's been doing it for, what, 30, 40 years.
00:12:01.000He's the funniest stand-up comic alive, in my opinion.
00:12:03.000Also, because many of you will feel this way at his show live, on our show here today is going to get a little bit rough, so if at any point you see... Head on over to Rumble.
00:12:18.000Yesterday, before I move on, I sat down, and I want to say actually, I sat down and I really did enjoy it.
00:12:25.000You know, I don't like doing segments, I don't like sitting down on other people's shows because it's all just gotcha and a quadrant view.
00:12:31.000I'd rather take my chance to sit down in a barbershop with Ten black guys who I know disagree with me because they have no reason to be dishonest and I have no incentive to be dishonest, whether it's a change my mind, whether it's talking with people, whether it's a conversation with a professor.
00:12:46.000You know, I don't tend to do a lot of press, but Piers Morgan invited me on and I will say it ended up being a pretty productive discussion.
00:13:08.000I hate it because I don't like Jeremy Corbyn, but I think he's a bombastic prick, but I also think that you should have let him finish speaking.
00:13:42.000It was, yeah, you were messing around.
00:13:43.000I was worried about cheap shots, you know, because it's fine if people do it.
00:13:47.000I just, it's not so much that you're worried about someone taking a cheap shot on you, it's that you're worried that it's not going to be a conversation that benefits anyone.
00:13:53.000You've heard me say I want to get out of this, want to get all of us out of this rhythm, out of this rhythm of chasing just a Twitter headline or clickbait or someone gets destroyed and actually have real conversations.
00:14:05.000It's good that we're talking, but are we talking in the right way?
00:14:09.000Now, he did not take I would argue, I think he was relatively fair.
00:14:13.000Some people thought that he took a cheap shot with the David Duke thing.
00:14:15.000I understand what he was doing with it.
00:14:37.000I think I got like powder from a donut on me or something.
00:14:43.000I sat down with Ginger Snap and said, look, he's going to bring me on.
00:14:45.000He has this tendency, or these reporters will have this tendency, or journalists, to just try and bring up some random tweet, or if I've ever said anything offensive.
00:14:52.000I said, have I said anything particularly bad about Pierce?
00:14:56.000And he said, no, not that I can think of.
00:14:59.000And then I watched the one episode in question and went, oof.
00:16:02.000It's Pierce Morgan interviewing a Scottish man named Count Dankula, who was who was fined in England, almost sent to prison for his dog lifting his paw, which they saw as a Nazi salute hate speech, being asked about Alex Jones being allowed on X, formerly Twitter, which was purchased by Elon Musk, who also posts dank memes.
00:16:28.000Come on guys, if you can't laugh at that, you're missing the point in life.
00:17:36.000By the way, tomorrow is the Christmas program.
00:17:40.000It's the annual Lotta with Crowder Christmas special.
00:17:45.000It's The Crowder Gives Back, I guess is what it's called, I guess.
00:17:47.000Well, anyways, it's where we just do some stuff for families, charity, we work with some veterans charities, and there was not a dry eye in the house, so we have to pre-tape that, because we actually went out and delivered some pretty significant gifts to some people in need, and it's all part of you, Mug Club.
00:20:25.000Now, I'm not necessarily concerned about the fallout, because I think I know how this likely ends.
00:20:29.000I'm concerned about the actions that are being taken.
00:20:32.000So, Tuesday night, and we are going to present to you a claim-truth segment, all references available at lotorthcreditor.com, why none of this makes sense, none of the left's arguments hold water, and if you disagree with me, I would be happy to read your comments below, and by that I mean have someone here read them.
00:20:47.000Tuesday night, the Colorado Supreme Court, four to three, ruled that President Donald Trump, some people say former president, some people say sitting president, I say sitting president, okay?
00:20:57.000They ruled that he is disqualified from being on the state's 2024 GOP ballot.
00:21:04.000The Colorado Supreme Court ruling that Donald Trump has now been disqualified from being on the primary ballot for the GOP.
00:21:14.000Again, this breaking news out of Colorado.
00:21:17.000Donald Trump, as we know, is now was fighting to be able to be on that primary ballot.
00:21:24.000The Colorado Supreme Court now issuing a 200 something page opinion that we've just got.
00:21:53.000They're also trying to say that the presidents or potential presidents of the United States are subject to the Insurrection Clause of the 14th Amendment, Section 3, 14th Amendment.
00:22:02.000None of it actually makes sense and this is how you definitely, this is why I think he's also gaining so much ground with black Americans.
00:22:09.000They believe that the judicial system has been weaponized against them.
00:22:13.000And I will say that there is truth to that.
00:22:14.000I just don't necessarily believe that it's racial.
00:22:19.000I think today the concern of the weaponized judicial system is far more about class, and really not just class wealthy and poor, I mean elites in power.
00:22:26.000Because you have people who are elites in power who make far less than some other people who they prosecute, who they persecute, and that's just because of your political affiliation or if you happen to speak against the ruling class.
00:22:36.000Now of course, not to be outdone as as quizlings or lackeys for the left, I was thrilled and proud to be in America.
00:26:21.000That's why they want to get this out so that people like Joy Reid, Rachel Maddow, whoever is in the newest online podcast, will parrot the point.
00:26:29.000And because of the insurrection clause, So people assume, they fill in that gap and go, well I guess Donald Trump must have committed an insurrection.
00:26:37.000Never happened, hasn't been charged with it.
00:26:39.000The Colorado court has used Donald Trump's January 6th speech as really the justification for his decision.
00:26:45.000It says, uh, in his speech, which began around noon, President Trump persisted in rejecting the election results, telling his supporters that, quote, we won in a landslide and we will never concede.
00:26:54.000He urged his supporters to confront this egregious assault on our democracy, to walk down to the Capitol, ellipses, show strength, and that if they did not fight like hell, they would not have a country anymore.
00:27:08.000Isn't it interesting that they say walk down the Capitol, and then something yadda yadda yadda, show strength.
00:27:15.000Well, let me tell you yadda yadda yadda, here's the part they conveniently left out from President Trump's speech.
00:27:20.000Know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard.
00:27:29.000Today we will see whether Republicans stand strong for integrity of our elections.
00:27:37.000And that is from that exact speech, just to be clear.
00:27:40.000But just to provide some more context, all references available at lateralwithcreditor.com, link in the description.
00:27:44.000If you think we're just pulling one soundbite out of context, here's some more examples.
00:28:12.000It's the day after, it's the day of, like, this is him.
00:28:16.000The only reason that this became an issue is because of the media and because of a lower court ruling which basically was being appealed to the Supreme Court of Colorado and the lower court screwed up in saying that he did engage in insurrection and that's one of the things they're trying to base this off of and it's like, again, not charged with it there, even in the lower court, and they can't adjudicate that anyway.
00:28:35.000They want you to believe that after that clip he goes, I had my fingers crossed.
00:29:23.000They are claiming, and by they I mean the left and the media, they're trying to claim that a state court can decide that President Trump committed federal insurrection.
00:29:33.000Colorado law allows for these challenges to occur very quickly.
00:29:36.000We had a, you know, tried a case, argued an appeal.
00:29:39.000We, of course, know that the Supreme Court is a likely destination for this decision, and we're ready to present our arguments and optimistic about their review of the Colorado court's careful and thoughtful approach to both the facts and the law here.
00:30:09.000The 14th Amendment, it's part of the Reconstruction Amendments, okay?
00:30:13.000This was designed to bar former Confederate officials from holding office.
00:30:17.000You know those former Confederate officials who literally took up arms and tried to kill everybody they disagreed with in the North to take power, also known as an insurrection.
00:30:27.000I don't know that any of those guys, those Confederate officials, gave a speech and said, guys, peacefully go to Washington!
00:31:16.000That's where it's appropriate, where there has to be some kind of national, federal oversight, because this is the president of the entire country.
00:31:25.000Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, of course, would not apply here.
00:31:27.000By the way, just to give you some context, too, as it relates to slavery, the Emancipation Proclamation was written in 63.
00:31:31.000It only reached Galveston in 65, so not all the slaves were free.
00:31:36.000They didn't know that they were free, but That's only because the carrier pigeon was racist as shit.
00:31:52.000That's bread from all kinds of different decades.
00:31:55.000This comes down to when people say, I just take all issues on an individual basis.
00:32:00.000If you don't have a worldview, you don't have a fundamental understanding, for example, of federalism, of states' rights, of the Constitution, of what actually falls under the legitimate purview of government, certainly electing National office would apply.
00:32:18.000The federal government's role really is limited to keeping us safe from exterior, interior threats, ensuring that everyone is following the law, playing by the rules, and outside of that, keep their whistle in their pocket.
00:32:29.000This would fall under that, especially when you have rogue judicial systems acting where they are and violating Basic fundamental rights.
00:32:37.000Here is actually even a noted anti-Trumper, and he's also a part-time janitor between the Rocky Bullwinkle cartoons, John Bolton explaining why the Colorado court's decision makes no sense.
00:32:47.000The idea that 50 different state courts can decide a question involving the highest elective office in the executive branch, interpreting the federal constitution as to what constitutes an insurrection against the federal government, Uh, is, is incoherent.
00:33:06.000A small amount of money here that the Supreme Court, uh, if it gets to the merits of this, if it has to, uh, will reverse.
00:33:13.000There's, there's no other logical way you can, uh, apply this and, and it would sow chaos in elections as far as the eye could see.
00:35:17.000This amendment does not apply to Donald Trump at all.
00:35:20.000Let me actually read you the text from section 3.
00:35:24.000No person shall be a senator or representative in Congress or elector of the president and vice president or hold any office civil or military under the United States or under any state who Having previously taken an oath as a member of Congress or as an officer of the United States, and then it goes on to say, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.
00:35:49.000So, Section 3 disqualifies officers who engage in insurrection.
00:35:52.000Again, something with which he has never been charged.
00:36:29.000Read the rest of what the lower court wrote, and I mentioned it a minute ago.
00:36:31.000They said, yes, he did participate in insurrection.
00:36:34.000So this court doesn't like Donald Trump.
00:36:36.000This court found something that wasn't even really a question right here that they could handle, and they said, yeah, this is odd to say that this would even apply.
00:36:57.000I was talking with Pierce Morgan about this, where he goes, well, he was guilty.
00:37:00.000The judge declared him guilty before it went to a trial.
00:37:04.000Yeah, and people try to say, well, they had to default because he didn't provide information.
00:37:06.000No, he provided all of his financials, he handed over texts with Alex Jones, what they said was, you need to know this context, they said, how much money did you make off of the Sandy Hook conspiracy?
00:37:18.00022 minutes over 8,000 hours of broadcast when the suit was filed.
00:37:22.00010,000 hours by the time the case actually started, or the hearing, the trial actually started.
00:37:28.000And by the way, even if you calculate it, it certainly wouldn't be many multiples more than your entire business has made throughout its entire history.
00:37:40.000The judge declared him guilty because he didn't hand over the financials specifically on how much money was made exactly in relation to Sandy Hook.
00:37:49.000That would be like someone asking me, how much money did you make here?
00:37:53.000How much money of Mug Club went to the period of time that you dedicated to, you know, teasing Pierce Morgan?
00:40:10.000They gave him until I think January 4th to be able to actually do that.
00:40:12.000This is for the Court of Public Opinion.
00:40:14.000They want this story to go out there as in the court of public opinion, which is also really dumb because it's only going to strengthen him.
00:40:52.000He hasn't been charged with trying to commit an insurrection at all.
00:40:55.000And states cannot decide if someone is eligible for federal office no matter what they try and say as it relates to the Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
00:41:04.000The insurrection clause, even if that were the case, does not apply to presidents according to the Colorado's own writings.
00:41:22.000And they just keep shooting themselves in the foot.
00:41:24.000Donald Trump is leading in the polls and the left is scared shitless, okay?
00:41:29.000Now in the RCP average, he's at three points over Biden in this exact same time.
00:41:35.000Uh, this time of the year, in 2019, Biden was up by 4.4.
00:41:39.000Now, keep in mind, this is keeping outlier polls off the RCP average, but the outlier poll is NBC, or ABC, Washington Post, that had him up, I believe, by 11, and the New York Times poll that had him up, I think, by another 8 or 9.
00:41:51.000So, they're not even consistent, the RCP average, in including polls, because in the past, they haven't always eliminated outliers, or their definitions have changed.
00:41:59.000Right now, if the election were held, it wouldn't even be close.
00:43:14.000It's not going to stand and don't let the left gaslight you into believing that somehow You're in some small fringe minority because the polls show that you're not, that they are, and their ratings are dying.
00:43:23.000And all these shenanigans, by the way, may make you feel like you're in uncertain times.
00:43:27.000Which is why, though, even though you're not in uncertain times right now, it pays to be prepared.
00:47:38.000The migrants, I don't know if you know this, this week, so going back to Donald Trump, let's set this up, President Trump told his audience at a rally that illegals were poisoning our country, which of course caused people to lose their minds.
00:47:56.000They poison mental institutions and prisons all over the world, not just in South America, not just the three or four countries that we think about, but all over the world.
00:48:06.000They're coming into our country from Africa, from Asia, all over the world.
00:48:41.000There was a flight, I believe it was from Phoenix to New York City, packed to the brim with some unruly illegal migrants who apparently got all the premium seats.
00:48:51.000Are you tired of paying too much for flights?
00:48:54.000Sick of all those extra fees from other airlines?
00:49:25.000I'm waiting to board my flight to New York to JFK and it looks like we have a whole lot of migrants who are also boarding this flight that the US taxpayers are paying for.
00:49:37.000This is what the US taxpayers are paying for right here.
00:52:57.000It means, no, no, no, Americans who pay these tax dollars shouldn't be giving them to people who are not fleeing persecution but want to benefit from the social safety nets to which they have no right.
00:57:18.00012,600 people who have no business being here are getting free flights, sorry, cross the border, thousands of them getting free flights, not even attending their court dates, and they're not even seeking asylum!
00:59:31.000I'm not saying an invasion of brown or of black.
00:59:35.000When people talk about the replacement theory, I know that some white supremacists have co-opted that and tried to turn it into a race thing.
00:59:42.000Like I've said, I would take ten patriotic, naturalized citizens from Uganda over one socialist from Finland.
01:00:41.000We used to respect and honor our elders.
01:00:45.000In other words, if we notice a trend where as people get older, they become more conservative, as people have families and contribute more to society, they tend to develop a worldview.
01:00:55.000And this happens with every generation.
01:00:56.000Once they cross over, maybe there's something there.
01:01:00.000Instead, we pander to people who've done none of those things, or people who aren't seeking asylum, they just want free shit.
01:01:30.000Yeah, they should do another Home Depot commercial where the dad gets caught in the blinds because he doesn't know what he's doing and there's a gay voice over the top of it.
01:01:45.000Hey, also, I know that you are going to see Josh and Nick, but Brian Callen, also a member of Mug Club, he's going to be at the Comedy Zone in Charlotte, North Carolina on December 29th, 30th, and 31st.
01:01:55.000His show, of course, Off Limits, is every week on Mug Club.
01:01:57.000So you get a lot of content here on Mug Club, and we're working on some pretty Pretty high-level investigations.
01:02:05.000Do we have Alex Jones here on the line?
01:02:06.000I know we're a little bit... Yeah, we see him.
01:02:56.000I was defaulted by judges in Connecticut and Texas.
01:02:58.000And now, every time I'm on a show, I'm supposed to apologize.
01:03:02.000Even though I apologized for what I did do six, seven years ago, just saying, okay, maybe I think it didn't happen, but that's still your First Amendment right.
01:03:43.000One thing that I do want to clarify for some, because some people are saying, you know, I really don't appreciate that Stephen threw Alex under the bus where he said he was wrong.
01:04:08.000Now, my batting average is still, you know, super, super high.
01:04:12.000I'm like 95% accurate, but I say things all the time covering mainstream media that turns out to not be completely accurate, but I'm not doing it on purpose.
01:04:21.000I want to be accurate, but I don't just get up here and say controversial things to get attention.
01:05:19.000And remember, Madeleine Albright said we killed 500,000 children by tripling the sanctions under Clinton on Iraq, not even letting them ship medicine or food in.
01:07:17.000They're not allowed to question the party.
01:07:19.000They're not allowed to criticize their supervisors.
01:07:21.000They're really not supposed to come and say when something's wrong at a factory or a laboratory, and that's why it's very well known that China puts out some of the worst crap on the planet, copies of Western inventions, because they don't just have planned obsolescence, where things break, they can sell you new ones.
01:07:36.000They literally produce crap, not because they're not smart IQ-wise, but because they're not allowed to basically question what their bosses are doing.
01:07:45.000Yeah, and you know what, if you go the extreme example is China, right, or some of these actual communist nations, then you go to a middle ground before we get to the United States, if we're the extremes, and it's where people like Piers Morgan are from, and I say this because I'm from Canada.
01:07:57.000You know, Count Dankula, the fact that he could even face jail time, the fact that our friend Mike Ward was put before a human rights tribunal in Canada for a joke, the fact that a man was arrested in the UK for doing a cover I don't think people really understand how pivotal and central that is.
01:08:12.000Actually, no, a man was walking by the karaoke bar and he wasn't even Chinese and he was
01:08:18.000So this is the only place where the First Amendment exists.
01:08:21.000And I don't think people really understand how pivotal and central that is.
01:08:25.000I know we talk about it a lot, but I really do.
01:08:28.000You just mentioned sort of the the the Iron Curtain kind of coming down on social media.
01:08:33.000You know, we're talking about this here where everyone just might want to hit a clean slate policy in this new year, delete everything on our social media, all of our old stuff.
01:08:39.000By the way, they do that at the New York Times.
01:08:41.000They do it at the Washington Post because they want to.
01:08:47.000But do it so that everyone can start using social media to serve us and not serving this algorithm non-human brain.
01:08:54.000I think that a lot of people feel like they are caught in a system and don't know how to get out of it because it's necessary for employment.
01:09:01.000I think if enough people just go, all right, clear it.
01:09:04.000We're going to use these tools as they were meant to serve us.
01:09:09.000It's just a thought because I'm scared for where we're going.
01:09:12.000Not complying with the algorithm and the AI censorship is what overrides it.
01:09:17.000What gives the AI the power is the submitting to it and acting like it's God.
01:09:21.000Vivek Ramaswamy made a great point last week when he said, as soon as they brought into sports, he named tennis, AI, even though it was way at first worse than the humans calling Uh, what was happening?
01:09:33.000People stopped arguing because, well, it's a machine, it must be better than us.
01:09:40.000And take Elon Musk, that's why Rumble is so important.
01:09:43.000But now, the EU is coming after Elon Musk, trying to literally shut down Twitter, take it over, tens of billions of dollars of fines, because he's allowing misinformation out, and they define that as saying the COVID vaccine doesn't work, which they now admit it doesn't, basically.
01:11:25.000This happened with the government of France first.
01:11:27.000And, of course, Elon Musk has a bigger profile than any individual at Rumble because they don't necessarily like to be in front of the camera.
01:12:21.000Well, here's a real-world example, and I'm not a tech expert, but I read about it in the different tech pages.
01:12:26.000Remember just five years ago or so, when you were driving somewhere in the country, didn't know where you were, it would show you basically every gas station, every restaurant, and they were all over the place, and you could pick.
01:12:36.000Well, now when you're on Google Maps or whatever, you're like, we just passed three gas stations.
01:12:41.000Why does it say there's one five miles down the road?
01:12:43.000Because those groups are paying to advertise.
01:12:46.000So they trained you that, oh, it lists all the restaurants, all the gas stations, all the museums, all of the hotels.
01:15:05.000So just to be clear, it's like, it's a skeleton crew, is what they do.
01:15:08.000So, hey, if they're going to take it off, then I would say, spend some time with your family, focus on the things that matter, and you know what, really, this break, We do have some decisions that we all have to make.
01:15:18.000Really concentrate on what it is that you want out of this next year.
01:15:22.000Not, I just want to lose some weight, but how do you want your life to look?
01:15:26.000I can't tell you how many people I speak with who feel like they are caught in a rat race and a huge component of it is the chronic stressors of social media and the algorithms.
01:15:36.000That's not the kind of life you have to live.
01:15:39.000If you don't look at it, it just disappears.
01:15:41.000So, we started the show... Oh, there you are.
01:15:43.000Did you hear Alex Jones talk about you, Joe Louis?
01:16:01.000Yeah, that's why he's like, no, I'm leaving.
01:16:03.000He came in and was like, there's Alex Jones.
01:16:04.000Alright, so we started the show with, you watched that old parody of It's a Wonderful Life, the Flat Earth edition.
01:16:10.000I don't know how much we had been drinking when we wrote that sketch, but...
01:16:15.000What always bugged me about that film, and a lot of people haven't seen this director's cut, it was a lot darker than you originally anticipated.
01:16:22.000We're going to show this to you before we go to Mug Club, but you remember Mr. Gower and the rat poison and the pills?
