00:03:52.000 Welcome to the lineup live.
00:03:53.000 Each show rolls into the next.
00:03:54.000 You don't need to change that dial.
00:03:56.000 It's independent content creators under one umbrella.
00:03:58.000 And we're in the business of building bridges here because we're nice guys.
00:04:01.000 So get all the Hodges out.
00:04:04.000 We're going to talk about H 1Bs and Lucky Palmer, I believe is his name, right?
00:04:10.000 Palmer Lucky.
00:04:11.000 Palmer Lucky.
00:04:12.000 Well, whatever.
00:04:12.000 That's a good start.
00:04:15.000 We started off a firestorm on X about H 1Bs.
00:04:19.000 I think the United States should be looked at as more than just an economic zone.
00:04:22.000 Sure, I think that we can have immigrants, legal immigrants.
00:04:25.000 I think that.
00:04:26.000 There are times where it makes sense if you need to bring the best and the brightest.
00:04:29.000 That's not what's happening.
00:04:31.000 That is not what's happening.
00:04:31.000 Immigration needs to serve the American people.
00:04:34.000 And it seems that there's a big divide right now between the sort of old corporatists who claim to be Republican and conservatives, America First people.
00:04:42.000 Dads are the real killers, you've heard, right?
00:04:44.000 In the wake of the Clancy trial, they're actually far more likely.
00:04:47.000 95% of killers in the home are dads.
00:04:50.000 Do you believe that?
00:04:52.000 Looking into the numbers actually kind of shocked me.
00:04:54.000 It's not even close to the truth.
00:04:56.000 And finally, Whenever you can kidnap andor kill commies and take their oil, I'm a fan of it.
00:05:02.000 And we're going to talk about President Trump's new oil deal with Venezuela.
00:05:07.000 And apparently, people who said nothing would happen are now not happy that something is happening.
00:05:11.000 Obviously, some things remain to be seen.
00:05:13.000 But killing commies, did I say comedies?
00:05:16.000 Killing commies, kidnapping them, I mean, dead or alive, just as good.
00:05:24.000 On with the show.
00:05:32.000 Gentlemen, I don't have time for your usual nonsense today.
00:05:35.000 I'm going to make this quick because as you can see, HR has been temporarily relocated to the construction wing of the office during renovations.
00:05:42.000 This is the new HR office.
00:05:43.000 You're literally under a tarp with one single light bulb.
00:05:47.000 There's a guy jackhammering 10 feet away, Sam.
00:05:50.000 Yeah, I can hear Gerald's fillings rattling from here.
00:05:53.000 Oh, my God.
00:05:53.000 How many fillings do you have, Gerald?
00:05:55.000 I'm hearing that's like a blacksmith.
00:05:56.000 You need to brush your teeth, guys.
00:05:57.000 You're not saying that, Sam, in trying to protect feelings, you're causing real physical harm to Gerald's disgust.
00:06:03.000 I am sorry about your mouth, Cheryl.
00:06:05.000 We all have to make sacrifices while construction is ongoing.
00:06:08.000 Sacrifice?
00:06:09.000 I think nicer homeless encampments.
00:06:10.000 In Seattle.
00:06:11.000 There's a sign that says HR, use PPE.
00:06:14.000 You guys didn't put on any PPE.
00:06:15.000 No, I don't think I have to.
00:06:16.000 No, because you're not a bitch.
00:06:17.000 No, but hey, you're not.
00:06:19.000 It's no wonder you're so cranky.
00:06:20.000 Sam, you're in here breathing all this drywall dust, listening to those construction guys yell racial slurs all day.
00:06:28.000 We are not distracting anymore.
00:06:30.000 I am going to talk about the email chain where you used all sorts of.
00:06:34.000 Foul, uncalled for language.
00:06:36.000 Okay, language.
00:06:36.000 First off, sit down.
00:06:39.000 Do you mean the fact that I called Caitlin, our new intern, by her name, Caitlin, before she transitioned?
00:06:44.000 Yes, and you're forgetting the litany of other things that were in that email chain.
00:06:48.000 You know what he needs?
00:06:49.000 He needs another hard app for his little bitch feelings.
00:06:51.000 All right, okay, since we're all about inclusion now, let's find a compromise.
00:06:55.000 How about we start broadcasting or doing the sketches right from here?
00:06:59.000 Let me do pronoun bingo with rebar or Muhammad uses a forklift.
00:07:02.000 Because there's not enough space here.
00:07:04.000 And this place is already a walking OSHA violation as it is.
00:07:07.000 If the safety inspector comes in here right now, he's going to cite my ass.
00:07:10.000 Yeah, well, he should cite your ass.
00:07:12.000 But that also sounded more sexual than it could be.
00:07:15.000 If that's what you want, Sam, we're not going to judge you for it.
00:07:17.000 But you think Muhammad forklifts a six-year-old is I think that's in your interest.
00:07:22.000 Do you want another fatwa, Stephen?
00:07:24.000 But why are you so weak?
00:07:25.000 I think we're done here.
00:07:26.000 I think we know the sketches, and I think we know how this goes.
00:07:28.000 Yeah.
00:07:29.000 Enjoy the corner office.
00:07:30.000 Hope it doesn't bury you alive.
00:07:33.000 Why would you say that?
00:07:34.000 It hardly does hope it buries him alive.
00:07:36.000 You can't keep ladders there, Sam.
00:07:39.000 Josh, you need to move that ladder.
00:07:41.000 You need to move that ladder.
00:07:42.000 This is a workplace violation, and I can't lift this.

00:08:40.000 That's the sound of Monday.
00:08:41.000 Well, all weekdays at 11 a.m. Eastern, but really, it's the sound of Monday because you haven't heard it for a couple of days.
00:08:48.000 It's true.
00:08:49.000 So it's extra special on Monday.
00:08:51.000 I forgot the question of the day.
00:08:52.000 Why do you think the jury is taking so long on the Lindsey Clancy verdict?
00:08:55.000 Like, how long does it take to write down execute?
00:09:01.000 Nine women.
00:09:02.000 Maybe they can't spell it.
00:09:04.000 Yeah.
00:09:04.000 Well, maybe it's just, I think it's really hard.
00:09:08.000 It's hard.
00:09:09.000 You ever used a washboard?
00:09:11.000 Yeah.
00:09:13.000 Kat Morgan, CEO, how are you?
00:09:15.000 Fantastic.
00:09:15.000 Tim stole my answer, by the way.
00:09:17.000 They're talking about it right there, and they were just like, Yeah, it's nine women and three men.
00:09:20.000 And I'm like, Oh boy, those men are a hard job in that room.
00:09:24.000 Yeah, they're not even arguing about the verdict.
00:09:25.000 They just can't figure out what they want for lunch.
00:09:27.000 I'm tired.
00:09:29.000 I mean, I know it's fresh, but Jimmy Jones makes me feel bloated.
00:09:33.000 She killed her kids.
00:09:34.000 Yeah, but you know what?
00:09:36.000 I think Firehouse subs.
00:09:37.000 Yeah, well, they're not coming back today, are they?
00:09:39.000 So we have time.
00:09:40.000 Maybe like a good nappy salad.
00:09:42.000 Like a good salad.
00:09:43.000 Like a salad in a big bowl.
00:09:48.000 Friday, September 25th at Average Joe's in Laredo, Texas.
00:09:51.000 And you can see all his dates at jfirestein.com.
00:09:53.000 Mr. Firestein, how are you?
00:09:54.000 Good.
00:09:55.000 Good.
00:09:56.000 Yeah.
00:09:56.000 You feel good?
00:09:57.000 Yeah, I feel good.
00:09:58.000 I had Jimmy John's and the big salad.
00:10:00.000 When you feel good, you do good.
00:10:02.000 You do good.
00:10:03.000 And I tell you what makes me feel good.
00:10:06.000 What?
00:10:07.000 Some Haji food.
00:10:11.000 Indian food.
00:10:12.000 And I mean.
00:10:14.000 Indian food.
00:10:15.000 Eat, pray, dot, Indian.
00:10:17.000 Do Native Americans have a food culture?
00:10:21.000 I mean, you know, I don't know how much Windex can you drink.
00:10:23.000 Like, if you say Indian food, I think everyone knows what you mean.
00:10:25.000 Yeah.
00:10:26.000 Yeah.
00:10:26.000 I mean, I don't think they're just like, oh, you mean an entire herd of buffalo?
00:10:32.000 No.
00:10:34.000 No, I meant some vindaloo or whatever.
00:10:37.000 Here's an Indian family sharing their lunch on a plane, and this is why the United States shouldn't be treated as an economic zone for whoever wants to get on a plane.
00:10:51.000 You know that music's playing too.
00:10:52.000 Yeah.
00:10:59.000 Oh, just put it right on the disgusting tray.
00:11:01.000 Yeah.
00:11:02.000 It'll be fine.
00:11:03.000 It's cleaner than their hands.
00:11:07.000 Plane ride straight to hell.
00:11:12.000 I guess we've.
00:11:13.000 Welcome to Southeast Airlines.
00:11:15.000 Yes.
00:11:16.000 I guess we've really done away with.
00:11:17.000 Any of those COVID restrictions.
00:11:19.000 But we went too far where it's like, now we've done away with forks.
00:11:22.000 We've enabled them.
00:11:22.000 We've done away with basic sanitation.
00:11:24.000 I mean, I don't know.
00:11:25.000 Can't we just like split the difference?
00:11:27.000 Like, hey, look, you don't need to be six feet apart.
00:11:29.000 We made that up.
00:11:30.000 And the mask doesn't really help, obviously, unless you're talking about transmission.
00:11:32.000 But plates are still a good idea.
00:11:36.000 And forks.
00:11:36.000 Yeah.
00:11:37.000 You know, washing your hands, not pooping wherever it falls.
00:11:41.000 To be fair, I saw one guy with like a spork.
00:11:44.000 Yeah.
00:11:45.000 Yeah.
00:11:45.000 Well, that's what they saw.
00:11:46.000 And they had little plates.
00:11:47.000 But they're the kind of plates that like, you know, the.
00:11:49.000 Grease seeks through.
00:11:50.000 Yeah.
00:11:51.000 Well, they certainly seeks through.
00:11:52.000 The spork is just a cost cutting measure for 9 11 airlines.
00:11:56.000 Oh.
00:11:57.000 Ouch.
00:11:57.000 Where's Saudi Arabia when you need them?
00:12:00.000 Get them on the line.
00:12:00.000 Now, after the meal, one of them even decided to blend two of his favorite things, started working out right in the aisle.
00:12:13.000 Now you're going to get the sweat droplets.
00:12:16.000 Got to burn those calories.
00:12:18.000 And one of the passengers, one of his customers, enjoyed the fitness class a little too much.
00:12:29.000 I mean, what?
00:12:30.000 Does anything go on this airline?
00:12:34.000 You should have seen a line to the bathroom.
00:12:35.000 Where's your sense of decorum?
00:12:38.000 I bet they don't even make you put your seat back when you take off.
00:12:41.000 Indigo is the name of the airline.
00:12:43.000 Indigo.
00:12:44.000 Like, we were going to go Indigo, go, but it was taken.
00:12:48.000 First, we said give, send, go.
00:12:50.000 You give ticket, we send you to go.
00:12:52.000 Then we said indigo.
00:12:56.000 It's the eat, break, go.
00:12:59.000 They allow outside food on board.
00:13:01.000 Okay, all airlines do.
00:13:02.000 Okay.
00:13:03.000 Unless it is, according to their rules, messy, oily, or strong smelling.
00:13:07.000 So basically, Indian food by definition.
00:13:11.000 Well, that's okay.
00:13:12.000 Just put it on the tray with no plate.
00:13:14.000 It's like they've had an issue with this in the past.
00:13:16.000 Yeah.
00:13:16.000 Like, okay, we should write this down specifically.
00:13:20.000 What would qualify if not a mushy crepe?
00:13:23.000 By the way, some Indian food is delicious.
00:13:24.000 Don't get me wrong.
00:13:25.000 Of course.
00:13:25.000 But what would qualify if not that?
00:13:27.000 It's got to be like you bring American food, like fried chicken.
00:13:30.000 Oh, that is gross.
00:13:31.000 You can't bring that.
00:13:31.000 Who makes the judgment call?
00:13:33.000 Like, Okay, if it is too messy, oily, or strong look that is not considered windaloo all over the.
00:13:40.000 It's okay.
00:13:42.000 Is that the same lady at the gate that basically says my bag won't fit in the overhead compartment?
00:13:46.000 You can't bring that food on?
00:13:48.000 No.
00:13:48.000 What?
00:13:49.000 I've got to keep my shampoo bottle to three ounces or less, but you can slap a messy, wet curry on the passenger seat next to you?
00:13:59.000 All right.
00:14:00.000 Stupid people.
00:14:02.000 By the way, can we send Tim to go and make sure that this is real?
00:14:05.000 Yes.
00:14:05.000 He loves Indians.
00:14:06.000 Yes, we will.
00:14:06.000 And I think he needs to be.
00:14:07.000 Enriched by the culture.
00:14:09.000 Well, we'll need to do it though before our major election live stream.
00:14:12.000 By the way, our website is live now, lotterothcredit.com slash election26.
00:14:17.000 We are currently tracking primary results so you can bookmark it, go there, and actually see real time data right now, also through Election Day.
00:14:24.000 Of course, on Election Day, we'll be giving some exclusive analysis like, you know, at the national election last time, we were the first ones to call, I believe it was two states?
00:14:32.000 I think it was Michigan, maybe one other state, and then also the overall election.
00:14:35.000 Georgia.
00:14:36.000 Georgia is the one that we called.
00:14:37.000 Georgia is when we called.
00:14:39.000 We called them early by hours and we called them early.
00:14:41.000 All within a percentage of how they ended up.
00:14:44.000 So that tells you, right?
00:14:45.000 The whole thing is nothing up our sleeve.
00:14:46.000 Hey, the media is very often lying to you.
00:14:48.000 When they told you, oh, we can't do Arizona, we don't understand it, we can't do Georgia for a few days.
00:14:54.000 Nope, not true.
00:14:54.000 We proved that with the last election and we planned to do that.
00:14:57.000 Again, it's a tradition, a very expensive, longstanding tradition moving forward to have all of this data, to have all of the experts, but we'll be providing that for you all the way from today up to and including election day.
00:15:09.000 So go use that live map, bladderwithcreditor.com slash election 2026.
00:15:14.000 And there's no reason to watch anywhere else because it used to be you had to watch where you could get the states called and then you tune into your commentary.
00:15:20.000 We do it all right here under one roof.
00:15:23.000 Absolute.
00:15:25.000 Why did you do that with two different ones?
00:15:26.000 Yeah, is it because he said washboard earlier?
00:15:28.000 It's just ab?
00:15:28.000 And it's like Captain Ahab?
00:15:31.000 Oh, come on.
00:15:32.000 No, it's because he saw the Indian guy working out.
00:15:34.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:15:35.000 I just have abs on the brain now, I guess, right?
00:15:37.000 Which, by the way, that is probably the most fit man in India.
00:15:40.000 They just don't have them.
00:15:41.000 Does he know how popular he is here in the States because of us?
00:15:44.000 There is no.
00:15:45.000 Oh, I'm sure his rotary phone's going off the hook right now.
00:15:50.000 I don't use the rotary because of the cancer.
00:15:53.000 Oh, okay.
00:15:54.000 The rotary, the signal makes your ball shrink.
00:15:57.000 No phone.
00:15:58.000 Is that not the 7,000 lines coming out of your light bulb?
00:16:00.000 Same thing with toilets.
00:16:02.000 That gives you cancer, so I don't know.
00:16:06.000 I know the guy's rich, though.
00:16:07.000 He's got to be swimming in cow dung right now.
00:16:09.000 Well, no, no, no.
00:16:09.000 He's rich in spirit.
00:16:10.000 That's what matters most.
00:16:12.000 Speaking of rich in spirit, this next broad, you know, Hochul, governor of New York.
00:16:18.000 She can't get anything right.
00:16:19.000 Do you remember when it was a big controversy to build a mosque at Ground Zero?
00:16:23.000 Yeah.
00:16:23.000 Because people thought, like, you know, look, okay, we get that there are Muslims and different religions.
00:16:27.000 We just, you know, it rubs us the wrong way.
00:16:29.000 And here's the thing as Americans, you have the right to do that.
00:16:32.000 Well, the Overton window for the Democrat Party has moved so far, we're not discussing that anymore.
00:16:38.000 This Friday is going to be 25 years, right?
00:16:40.000 As far as 9 11.
00:16:41.000 Wow, 25 years.
00:16:43.000 So, New York Governor Kathy Hochul, you know, you'd think maybe made a statement on Islam and how it shouldn't dictate the West, how we'll never succumb to fear again.
00:16:52.000 Maybe that there's a difference between those who committed the terrorist acts and You know, we still have a problem with folks assimilating.
00:16:59.000 No, she did this.
00:17:12.000 Yeah, she was being at the Islamic Center for New York, and the former Imam there was Sheikh Mohammed Jamia, who blamed the Jews for 9 11.
00:17:21.000 Yeah, blamed the Jews for 9 11.
00:17:23.000 So, of course, she took a very nice moment there to pander, and she did that again when she gave a speech at the local synagogue.
00:17:32.000 Ah!
00:17:33.000 Hope that 7,000 cash is.
00:17:37.000 Hey, fair is fair.
00:17:38.000 She can put that on and then put on the hijab when she goes there.
00:17:41.000 The worst part is that it fooled so many Jews.
00:17:43.000 They just were like, wow, she's just like me.
00:17:46.000 She looks like my uncle.
00:17:48.000 I feel I can relate to her.
00:17:54.000 Hey, I would say this, by the way, you can check all the references.
00:17:56.000 We make them available.
00:17:59.000 She, you know, Hokal, a Democrat lady in the 21st century and Islam, not good, but.
00:18:04.000 No.
00:18:04.000 I mean, unless it's rape and then you need four witnesses.
00:18:06.000 So, still not good bedfellows.
00:18:08.000 So, I'll tell you why she's incompatible with Islam and this is pandering.
00:18:11.000 She's a staunch feminist.
00:18:12.000 That doesn't work.
00:18:12.000 Celebrated the Trans Day of Visibility.
00:18:14.000 They're not big fans of that.
00:18:15.000 Made New York a safe haven for trans kids.
00:18:17.000 She funded abortions for out of state women coming to New York for abortion.
00:18:21.000 She's radically pro abortion all the way through the pregnancy.
00:18:24.000 She's a huge supporter of Me Too, which is kind of the opposite direction of needing four witnesses for rape.
00:18:28.000 A little bit, yeah.
00:18:30.000 In Islam, men can smack their wives around, but only enough so that you don't see the bruises so they don't get in trouble.
00:18:36.000 What else?
00:18:37.000 Their testimony is worth half that of a man.
00:18:39.000 You need four male witnesses for the rape.
00:18:41.000 So the point is, she's there pandering and she'll say, We are all one and the same.
00:18:44.000 But no one ever just pins them down and goes, Hey, hey, let me ask you.
00:18:49.000 You support abortion up until and including birth.
00:18:51.000 Or, Hey, you believed in Me Too.
00:18:54.000 What do you say to the fact that most Muslims believe you need multiple male witnesses, if even not four?
00:18:59.000 Otherwise, the woman is punished for accusing rape.
00:19:01.000 By the way, what are the four doing during the rape where they're not stopping it?
00:19:05.000 Right.
00:19:05.000 That's the thing that always boggled my mind.
00:19:07.000 It's not that you needed witnesses.
00:19:08.000 No, I understand that.
00:19:09.000 They're like, Oh, we got to stand around that.
00:19:11.000 Four people standing there and not doing anything about it, that's not the culture I want.
00:19:15.000 Yeah.
00:19:15.000 But no one ever calls them to the mat.
00:19:17.000 No.
00:19:17.000 So they'll say, well, not a lot of Muslims.
00:19:19.000 No, no.
00:19:19.000 This is why I say, okay, take it back to just drawing a picture of Muhammad.
00:19:22.000 Sure, 100 and I believe it's 98 million Muslims support some kind of violence worldwide.
00:19:28.000 It's well over 50, close to 60 million support violence often as a means to expand their religion against infidels.
00:19:35.000 But don't even ask them about that.
00:19:36.000 Like, hey, I know you're a Democrat, but what do you say to believe all women and in Islam, their testimony is worth literally half?
00:19:43.000 What do you say to.
00:19:44.000 Your constituents, where you say, believe all women or you support abortion, but you should actually be stoned to death.
00:19:48.000 Most Muslims believe you should be stoned to death for being promiscuous.
00:19:52.000 Like, not just terrorism.
00:19:55.000 Ask them.
00:19:56.000 Ask the Muslims in your very state.
00:19:59.000 No one ever asks them those questions.
00:20:02.000 They get away with these broad strokes.
00:20:04.000 Well, you know, not all, not all.
00:20:05.000 Okay, but let's ask you about most in your state who believe this while you're running on this platform.
00:20:13.000 Why doesn't anyone call them to the mat on that?
00:20:16.000 Well, we know they'll never appear on this show.
00:20:17.000 I would literally have to ambush and sandbagger to get it out.
00:20:19.000 But I really would love to ask these people those questions.
00:20:22.000 Yeah.
00:20:22.000 We know they won't answer, but it would be great to have it on record.
00:20:26.000 You don't even see that in the debates ever.
00:20:29.000 You never see it.
00:20:29.000 The questions that you want answered, you don't see.
00:20:32.000 I get the frustration with media, and it's getting just as bad in the podcast space where they'll have someone sit down.
00:20:37.000 They'll have, for example, Van sit down.
00:20:39.000 Hey, I like Vance on most things, but remember he sat there on those podcasts?
00:20:42.000 They asked him no tough questions.
00:20:44.000 Then once he's gone, they trash him.
00:20:45.000 It's like, well, why don't you ask him those tough questions right there?
00:20:47.000 He's there.
00:20:49.000 She'll say, oh, we're just pandering for votes.
00:20:51.000 That's exactly what they're doing.
00:20:53.000 How about this?
00:20:53.000 Instead of having to pander to those votes, how about stop importing those people?
00:20:57.000 Yeah.
00:20:57.000 So that you don't have to pander.
00:20:59.000 Exactly.
00:20:59.000 I mean, you shouldn't pander anyway, but listen, I understand politics and you're trying to go out and reach out and touch the community and make sure that you can get those votes.
00:21:04.000 Okay, fine.
00:21:05.000 Just stop bringing them in.
00:21:07.000 If you're going to pander, I'd like that you pander to, you know, like just a basic old white guy.
00:21:11.000 Yeah, like somebody that is more prepared.
00:21:13.000 She's never going to help you in any meaningful way, Kathy Hochel.
00:21:17.000 Especially, like, I don't know, just use real world examples.
00:21:19.000 Like if you needed to refinance your house.
00:21:29.000 Oh, what the?
00:21:32.000 Mortgage!
00:21:33.000 What the hell's going on?
00:21:34.000 You should refinance!
00:21:35.000 What?
00:21:37.000 You should refinance with American financing.
00:21:42.000 They could save you thousands of dollars, as they've helped thousands of Americans before me.
00:21:49.000 Don't be like me!
00:21:52.000 Who are you?
00:21:53.000 I am the ghost of mortgage future.
00:21:57.000 Every link in my chain.
00:21:59.000 Was forged by the dollars I could have saved had I refinanced with American financing.
00:22:06.000 How are you the ghost of me?
00:22:08.000 I'm not even dead yet.
00:22:09.000 Time is relative.
00:22:13.000 Over the next three nights, you will be visited by three spirits.
00:22:18.000 Ah, yeah, that's not gonna work for me.
00:22:20.000 Yeah, I got a show in Pittsburgh on Friday, two shows in Cleveland after that.
00:22:24.000 It's fine.
00:22:26.000 Just trying to help.
00:22:28.000 Do whatever you want.
00:22:28.000 I don't care.
00:22:29.000 All right, all right.
00:22:31.000 American financing.
00:22:32.000 I'll call them tomorrow.
00:22:34.000 One of them has a chick.
00:22:35.000 Is she cute?
00:22:38.000 She's like a six.
00:22:41.000 Trust the professionals, whether it's a medical procedure or financing your home.
00:22:45.000 Call the pros at American financing today at 1 800 974 6500 or visit www.americanfinancing.net/slashcrowder.

00:22:56.000 If you start today, you may even delay up to two mortgage payments.
00:23:00.000 And by the way, a lot of people have saved money switching to American finance.
00:23:03.000 It's a good time right now.
00:23:04.000 Hey, you can also wait a little bit longer.
00:23:05.000 We're actually seeing houses become more affordable.
00:23:07.000 Isn't that nice?
00:23:09.000 Thank you for the raid, Dan.
00:23:10.000 We appreciate it.
00:23:10.000 Welcome.
00:23:11.000 Welcome, guys.
00:23:11.000 Of course, if you are not a Rumble Premium member, you're going to go on to watch Haley after us.
00:23:15.000 And we can re earn your trust tomorrow if we lose it today, rightfully so.
00:23:19.000 So let me get to this here.
00:23:23.000 I will say a big way because I hate this whole thing where it's just okay, boomer.
00:23:28.000 And then boomers say Gen Z are lazy.
00:23:30.000 And two things can be true there's a little bit of column A, a little bit of column B.
00:23:34.000 But we do need to acknowledge.
00:23:35.000 A big failing of whether it's boomers, Gen X, or even millennials, this libertarian approach to economics.
00:23:43.000 I think the major rejection that you're seeing in the Republican Party is market based economics that were predicated on a lie, right?
00:23:51.000 The idea that, okay, free trade, well, that's great, less you're being screwed on the other end of that deal.
00:23:56.000 We were.
00:23:57.000 The idea that international trade, even if it's not free trade, okay, that that can be beneficial.
00:24:02.000 Well, sure, again, if all players are actually engaging honestly, that's not the case.
00:24:08.000 And many politicians, when people talk about the elite, it's that they've treated the United States not as a country, not as a people.
00:24:15.000 We've been told very often we're not a people, we're ideas, right?
00:24:19.000 We're a place of ideas.
00:24:19.000 Well, sure, it's people who've congregated under these ideas.
00:24:22.000 And then eventually, after a couple of centuries, you become a people, the American people.
00:24:27.000 I'll tell you what, it's not just an economic zone.
00:24:31.000 It's not just a line item.
00:24:33.000 It's not something you put on a ledger.
00:24:35.000 And a lot of the libertarian.
00:24:38.000 Old school conservatives did that, and now we've seen the results, and it's not good.
00:24:44.000 And it's not good, by the way, for the rest of the world economically because the United States will cease to thrive.
00:24:49.000 So, we talked about H 1Bs last week, and then it set off a firestorm on X.
00:24:56.000 And I think there's some interesting perspectives here.
00:24:58.000 So, Palmer Lucky, he's the CEO of Anduril, and then there was Paul Graham, the founder of Y Combinator.
00:25:03.000 They got into an X sort of argument over H 1Bs, foreign workers in general.
00:25:08.000 So, Paul Graham wrote, I believe the most qualified person should get the job.
00:25:13.000 And I believe this is in response to a thread that was set off from our video last week.
00:25:16.000 Palmer Lucky responded If I try to replace all of my American engineers with foreign engineers who scored a few points better, I should be stopped by the law or worse.
00:25:26.000 Or worse.
00:25:28.000 So, this is important because libertarians at one point were like, Whoa, so now you're big government.
00:25:33.000 No, It's a legitimate role of government to ensure that people are playing by the rules.
00:25:39.000 It's a legitimate role of government to protect us, to enforce borders.
00:25:43.000 Conservatives don't believe there's no role for government.
00:25:45.000 We're not anarchists.
00:25:47.000 We believe that there is a limited purview.
00:25:49.000 And part of that is ensuring that people here are not gaming the system at the expense of the American citizen.
00:25:55.000 Why?
00:25:56.000 Because they pay taxes, this is their nation.
00:25:59.000 So, that's where enforcement, stopping someone from screwing American workers by abusing the law or manipulating a loophole, would be appropriate.
00:26:08.000 That is not antithetical to conservatism.
00:26:10.000 Let me establish kind of their two positions.
00:26:12.000 So, Palmer Lucky believes that the American economy should work for Americans.
00:26:17.000 And by the way, that can include immigration, that can include offshoring sometimes.
00:26:21.000 For example, if we don't have the steel that we need for certain products, that's where an American company stays in business.
00:26:26.000 If you get it from Latvia, Lithuania, for example.
00:26:30.000 But it needs to be designed, it needs to.
00:26:34.000 It needs to orbit the United States, the American worker, our economy.
00:26:38.000 It can't occur at the cost of it.
00:26:40.000 So he believes the American economy should work primarily for Americans.
00:26:43.000 Paul Graham believes in using these technical loopholes to outsource.
00:26:48.000 Any excuse will do if he can get cheap labor.
00:26:51.000 Here's something that Palmer wrote, which I think is.
00:26:53.000 I want to give credit where it's due.
00:26:55.000 He wrote Investors like Paul want the immigration debate to be strictly polar because it is the only way their traitorous ideas might seem reasonable.
00:27:02.000 They paint one side as racist, backwards, economically illiterate, absolutists, and the other as enlightened.
00:27:07.000 Growth minded cosmopolitan realists.
00:27:10.000 Support for laws that protect American citizens can be dismissed as uneducated.
00:27:13.000 Anyone who hires immigrants or foreigners in any capacity, a hypocrite.
00:27:17.000 American law should and does advantage American citizens.
00:27:21.000 We should not have to compete on an even playing field with billions of people who almost universally don't share our values or respect our institutions, even if they are, quote, the most qualified or willing to work double the hours for the same wages.
00:27:35.000 Yeah.
00:27:36.000 That's huge.
00:27:37.000 Basically saying it doesn't matter what they bring to the table if they don't share our values.
00:27:41.000 Or respect our institutions, they will destroy our country.
00:27:44.000 Maybe not actively like a socialist or a communist, but over time.
00:27:47.000 Well, let's grant this for the sake of argument, because I'm going to give you what he laid out, and we've discussed a few times.
00:27:52.000 Check the references the economic argument against H 1Bs, foreign labor, where it could be on paper appropriate, but it's actually not.
00:28:01.000 Let's say you have 100 Americans doing a job or willing to do a job.
00:28:07.000 And now you replace, I don't know, 80 of those Americans with someone from India who scored a couple points higher on some standardized test.
00:28:15.000 And that's the only measure that's used.
00:28:17.000 That's really how a lot of these people use these visa systems, right?
00:28:21.000 They go, ah, well, here.
00:28:22.000 It doesn't take into account sometimes experience.
00:28:24.000 It doesn't take into account that these numbers are inflated.
00:28:26.000 It doesn't take into account degree mills, where they also train up people to specifically do better in some standardized form of testing, but it doesn't mean they're more qualified to do the job.
00:28:35.000 But let's take 100 Americans, now you replace them with 80 foreigners.
00:28:38.000 Okay, they're slightly more qualified.
00:28:41.000 Does that benefit the American people at large, even our workforce at large, more when you take into account that?
00:28:49.000 Now, 80 of the 100.
00:28:50.000 Well, about 40% of those immigrants are going to go back to their home country within 10 years.
00:28:54.000 So they're not going to be here.
00:28:57.000 Up to 30% of their wages are sent out of the United States monthly.
00:29:03.000 Wow.
00:29:04.000 $230 billion were remitted to other countries, $32 billion a year to India alone.
00:29:12.000 Think about that.
00:29:13.000 $230 billion.
00:29:14.000 The last number we have is 2024.
00:29:16.000 Taken right out of our economy.
00:29:18.000 So would it be better for those 100 workers to be American?
00:29:22.000 If that 30% is actually kept in Americans' pockets and actually spent here on our economy or given to churches, given to charities, would it be better if those 100 Americans gain experience and stay in the workforce as opposed to 40% of them leaving?
00:29:39.000 That doesn't seem like people who are taking part in the shining city on a hill.
00:29:44.000 When 30% of their wages are sent to another country and 40% of them leave within 10 years, that seems like people who come here, destroy, pick up the carcass, and then leave.
00:29:55.000 That's a very, very different approach.
00:29:57.000 That's a very different worker in that workforce than an American who has no plans to leave.
00:30:03.000 Treating us like a rest stop bathroom.
00:30:04.000 That's exactly right.
00:30:05.000 And not even a Bucky's.
00:30:06.000 Cleanest rest stops on the highway.
00:30:09.000 If you can find one.
00:30:10.000 Yes.
00:30:11.000 No, they won't set up in blue states now.
00:30:13.000 Talking like a publicly funded one.
00:30:14.000 Yes, exactly right.
00:30:16.000 An episode of Lock Up with Haji's.
00:30:18.000 So they're hiring people exclusively on how they perform on paper.
00:30:21.000 Have we ever done that?
00:30:22.000 Never.
00:30:23.000 At all?
00:30:24.000 I haven't worked for anywhere who has ever done anything like that.
00:30:26.000 No.
00:30:27.000 Like always in interview.
00:30:28.000 Right.
00:30:29.000 Yeah, it's taken in as part of the totality.
00:30:32.000 But shouldn't the totality go, hey, okay, hold on a second.
00:30:35.000 This person is, I don't know, triple as likely to leave.
00:30:39.000 Oh, this person is much more likely to send.
00:30:41.000 But these corporations who want cheap labor at the cost of your lifestyle, at the cost of your family, they don't care about that.
00:30:50.000 Yeah.
00:30:50.000 No, this guy, you know, let's say one guy, worker, comes, takes the job, leaves in 10 years.
00:30:56.000 What do they do?
00:30:56.000 Hire another one for even cheaper.
00:30:58.000 Right.
00:31:00.000 That's hundreds of billions of dollars that could be kept here as opposed to sent to India, sent to Pakistan, sent to Bangladesh, sent to somewhere in South America.
00:31:10.000 You know where you actually see people take this into account?
00:31:13.000 Every other nation outside of the United States, with the exception of Europe over the last decade, they all have regulations to stop this.
00:31:23.000 And Lucky is in tech, and so a lot of people, this is why I don't believe in class warfare, where it's just, oh, someone's successful, they're bad.
00:31:28.000 He's kind of a folk hero.
00:31:30.000 He calls out H 1Bs and China on a regular basis.
00:31:33.000 You want.
00:31:34.000 This guy out on that line.
00:31:36.000 Of course, there's so much H1B abuse.
00:31:38.000 You would not believe what I saw when I was in Silicon Valley.
00:31:41.000 It is insane.
00:31:41.000 It's obviously a program to try and replace U.S. workers with basically slave labor that can't ever escape.
00:31:48.000 The H1B abuse is crazy.
00:31:50.000 There's going to be a window of opportunity for Xi in China that opens in 2027.
00:31:55.000 That means that you necessarily need to be ready for a potential great power conflict with China in 2027 and for at least a few years after that.
00:32:04.000 So we have to, right?
00:32:05.000 There's no other option.
00:32:06.000 If you are then going to go out, And use your platform that was given to you by competing for China and criticize U.S. human rights abuses and then say nothing about China's, which are to a scale and severity you could never imagine in the United States.
00:32:27.000 I want to start Android to save taxpayers hundreds of billions of dollars and to get people out of these advertising companies, these entertainment companies that are controlled by foreign adversaries, and put them to work on the tools that are going to hold those adversaries at bay.
00:32:41.000 Now, I want to tell you something.
00:32:41.000 This is a fundamentally different approach than the libertarian approach to economics that we saw.
00:32:46.000 We were often told when we were young, and Gerald, you and I were somewhat in this camp, and by the way, in principle, I am if it's fair.
00:32:53.000 And that also assumes that we're dealing economically with nations that aren't antithetical to our values and our goals.
00:32:59.000 And trying to subvert us.
00:33:00.000 Like it used to be with us in Europe, like it used to be with us in Canada at one point in time.
00:33:03.000 That's very different from a slave nation like China or Qatar, to use them as examples.
00:33:09.000 We used to be told that, hey, as technology advances, Right, the information superhighway.
00:33:14.000 You can play Mortal Kombat with a friend in Vietnam.
00:33:16.000 We were told that everyone will become more connected and that the lines, borders will kind of be blurred.
00:33:24.000 I think, well, we are seeing, but we absolutely should see the opposite.
00:33:29.000 As we gain access to more information and we see what these nations are like, nations like China, nations like India, and we see what their values are like, we should silo ourselves from them economically more until they decide to come along with the rest of the world.
00:33:46.000 It's not, hey, With technology now, we can trade with you more.
00:33:50.000 It's, oh, now we see you guys are dishonest.
00:33:52.000 Now we see that you guys still have slaves.
00:33:54.000 So you better catch up.
00:33:57.000 Otherwise, you're going to pay the price, not us.
00:33:59.000 Yeah.
00:34:00.000 We're going to isolate you until you stop with, you know, the slavery, until you stop with, you know, stealing intellectual property from the United States.
00:34:08.000 Technology has given us more insight.
00:34:10.000 And I think that insight would inform us to be less open in trade with nations that want to subvert ours.
00:34:18.000 Yeah.
00:34:18.000 And I respect the hell out of him for saying that about Xi.
00:34:21.000 Like he.
00:34:22.000 He is a tech guy, right?
00:34:24.000 At heart.
00:34:24.000 He invented Oculus and sold it to Facebook at the time for, I think, $2 billion.
00:34:28.000 So it's not like just some guy who's been in the defense industry for his entire life.
00:34:31.000 Right.
00:34:31.000 He's calling out Xi, going, like, yeah, listen, we're going to have to deal with this.
00:34:34.000 He just said something that's absolutely true.
00:34:36.000 Yep.
00:34:36.000 At some point, you will have to deal with this.
00:34:38.000 So let's just make sure that we're focused on us, guys.
00:34:42.000 What are we doing?
00:34:43.000 Like, Elon Musk, as much as I love him, won't say that.
00:34:45.000 No.
00:34:45.000 Batteries come from China.
00:34:46.000 And it's been a flip from the left.
00:34:47.000 Remember when they used to protest the gap?
00:34:50.000 They used to protest Nike.
00:34:51.000 They go, oh, sweatshops.
00:34:52.000 Yeah.
00:34:52.000 Now they're kind of like, yeah, yeah, you know, it's fine.
00:34:55.000 And if anything, we should just import them here.
00:34:58.000 Yeah.
00:34:58.000 That's the idea.
00:34:58.000 Well, hold on a second.
00:34:59.000 Why don't you have a problem with that anymore?
00:35:01.000 World Cup.
00:35:02.000 Why don't we have a problem with that anymore?
00:35:03.000 Dubai.
00:35:03.000 Why don't you have a problem with that anymore?
00:35:05.000 NBA.
00:35:05.000 China.
00:35:06.000 Yeah.
00:35:07.000 NBA.
00:35:07.000 Hollywood.
00:35:09.000 Oh, okay.
00:35:09.000 You never meant it.
00:35:11.000 You were using it as a tool.
00:35:12.000 And by the way, he practiced what he preaches since 2021.
00:35:15.000 And Dural, his company, only has about five to six H 1B filings.
00:35:19.000 And he has a small number of other visa employees.
00:35:21.000 Like I said, it absolutely can be appropriate and should be.
00:35:24.000 E3 filings for Australians, for example.
00:35:27.000 That works.
00:35:27.000 And by the way, just to give you some size comparison here, he raised $5 billion at a $61 billion valuation.
00:35:33.000 This is not a mom and pop shop.
00:35:35.000 No.
00:35:35.000 This is not like, oh, he didn't have to have many.
00:35:37.000 No, it would have absolutely been easy for him to cut corners and do it that way.
00:35:40.000 He also has offices in countries like Australia.
00:35:42.000 Yeah.
00:35:42.000 Right.
00:35:43.000 By the way.
00:35:43.000 Yeah.
00:35:44.000 So he responded to a reply in one of our, I guess, the thread of our post.
00:35:48.000 He said eight people on visas in a company with more than 10,000 Americans is what it takes to do business with U.S. allies like Australia.
00:35:55.000 This is a very dumb critique responding to somebody.
00:35:58.000 And here's just some of the stuff that Andril is actually making with Americans.
00:36:01.000 You've been told we can't make anything anymore.
00:36:03.000 Well, okay.
00:36:05.000 Enjoy this.
00:36:06.000 Here's Ghost X, the drone that's watching.
00:36:08.000 So just watch for a moment.
00:36:09.000 So the blue force is my friendlies.
00:36:12.000 So see that little right hand corner where it sees.
00:36:14.000 I love how it goes from mullet to even sillier.
00:36:18.000 They're tracking where my guys are.
00:36:20.000 And then watch where they go behind the container.
00:36:22.000 So I can actually see through it and watch.
00:36:25.000 Now they're engaging the guy over there and he's down.
00:36:30.000 A deployable data center.
00:37:07.000 Goodbye.
00:37:09.000 Oh, geez.
00:37:10.000 That's pretty cool.
00:37:10.000 It's like a flying claymore, right?
00:37:12.000 Yeah.
00:37:12.000 And I will tell you this people have been describing this as late stage capitalism.
00:37:17.000 No, there is a really valid critique of capitalism, corporatism, cronyism as it exists now versus free enterprise, you know, the sort of Adam Smith economics that we were raised with.
00:37:27.000 But you can either look at this as late stage capitalism or I would say early stage socialism, right?
00:37:32.000 It's inevitable.
00:37:33.000 Universal basic income.
00:37:36.000 But if you veer into socialism, the solution is.
00:37:38.000 Because Americans are out of work, because they can't compete with third world labor.
00:37:41.000 From the left is, well, just tax billionaires more, tax businesses more, even though we have one of the highest corporate tax rates in the industrialized world.
00:37:49.000 Tax them more, kill more jobs, universal basic income, give everybody free school, right?
00:37:54.000 Print money like it's going out of style.
00:37:56.000 Or, before we get there, we can acknowledge the problem and say, you know what?
00:38:00.000 The United States is more than just an economic zone.
00:38:03.000 And instead of spending or printing money, we're going to start enforcing some rules that ensure.
00:38:10.000 These businesses, these corporations benefit Americans.
00:38:13.000 We don't need to subsidize it.
00:38:14.000 We just need to tell businesses, you can't do business here unless you do it this way.
00:38:18.000 And we've been doing that forever.
00:38:21.000 We just now have, for some reason, allowed it to lapse.
00:38:25.000 And we've allowed a record number of third world labor to replace Americans.
00:38:29.000 We don't need to subsidize anything.
00:38:32.000 We need to enforce the rules that should already exist to protect Americans.
00:38:36.000 So this is where the left and the right can agree.
00:38:39.000 Yep, the current stage of capitalism as it exists.
00:38:42.000 Which is early stage socialism.
00:38:44.000 It doesn't benefit the American worker.
00:38:46.000 So you can have open borders, you can have a giant welfare state, or you can enforce immigration law and have an economic future for the American people.
00:38:57.000 Pick one.
00:38:59.000 That's where I line up.
00:39:01.000 Also, you know, management is important, which is why you can manage all your crypto in one spot with Rumble Wallet.

00:39:17.000 Anything else?
00:39:18.000 No.
00:39:18.000 All right.
00:39:19.000 Lindsay Clancy.
00:39:22.000 So, Clancy.
00:39:23.000 Still deliberating right now.
00:39:24.000 Yeah.
00:39:25.000 And this is nine women, three men.
00:39:28.000 Let me ask you this.
00:39:28.000 My question here before I get into it.
00:39:31.000 The jurors broke for the weekend without a verdict.
00:39:33.000 It's taken a long time to deliberate from what we're understanding right now.
00:39:37.000 Has this been a wake up call for you?
00:39:41.000 When you see posts of women saying, I'm one step away or, Lindsey Clancy is absolutely not guilty.
00:39:48.000 It's not just that you see a post, but when you see hundreds of thousands of shares and likes and comments in support of that, has this been a wake up for you the way COVID was?
00:39:59.000 COVID was a wake up in that the government isn't always out to serve you.
00:40:05.000 In the past, it used to be you're just a conspiracy theorist until it came true.
00:40:09.000 Then it used to be, until I would say Lindsey Clancy for a lot of people, misogyny, manosphere, red pill.
00:40:16.000 If you say, you know what, we have a problem here.
00:40:18.000 There's been an over feminization of society, and really there's one half of the country that hasn't been held as accountable, and that's bad for both men and women.
00:40:27.000 Has this been a wake up call for you?
00:40:30.000 It's been a bit of that for me.
00:40:31.000 I'm glad I'm not dating, you know?
00:40:33.000 Yeah.
00:40:33.000 I brought the case up to my wife.
00:40:35.000 We're celebrating 15 years of marriage this month.
00:40:38.000 Yeah, thank you.
00:40:38.000 And I brought it up to her, and she's like, oh, she should be executed.
00:40:41.000 Yes.
00:40:42.000 I was like, oh, let's renew our vows right now.
00:40:45.000 Let's consummate again.
00:40:46.000 Yeah.
00:40:48.000 And again, and again.
00:40:49.000 Well, I know the refractory rate is quite astounding.
00:40:53.000 Now, this is happening.
00:40:56.000 So, what happens right away?
00:40:57.000 Instead of going, all right, all right, we need to deal with the problem of those in our own ranks.
00:41:02.000 Some women have done that, but not enough.
00:41:04.000 There's been a narrative resurrected that, well, look, this is just all a circus.
00:41:07.000 Anyone who says bread and circuses, by the way, is someone who should immediately be discounted, in my opinion.
00:41:12.000 It's just such an old trope.
00:41:13.000 They're just repeating it.
00:41:14.000 Yeah, they go back and forth.
00:41:15.000 I heard somebody say it on TV.
00:41:16.000 Yeah.
00:41:16.000 But the truth is, fathers, this is the myth right now, fathers are actually the real killers, far more likely to kill their children than mothers if you care about facts.
00:41:27.000 What she found was a clear pattern among men who kill their children.
00:41:30.000 Well, that guy's nuts, obviously.
00:41:32.000 It's not so much that custody battles that drive men to murder, she says.
00:41:36.000 More than anything, they simply want to punish their wives for leaving them.
00:41:40.000 It's been three years since five year old Armaz Andresian Jr., nicknamed Peaky, was murdered by his own father.
00:41:47.000 His father later confessed the killing was out of anger toward his estranged wife.
00:41:51.000 Family annihilators are overwhelmingly male, and they often seem like law abiding citizens and good fathers.
00:41:59.000 There have been a number of very difficult stories in the news.
00:42:03.000 In recent weeks and months, individuals killing a spouse, in some cases, killing their entire family.
00:42:13.000 There are a lot of males who engage in domestic violence and intimate partner violence because of the notion of entitlement.
00:42:22.000 Women don't generally have a notion of entitlement the way that men do.
00:42:28.000 Because they don't get it the way that they want it, they're more likely to engage in aggressive behaviors.
00:42:34.000 Family and intimate partner killings now account.
00:42:37.000 For 21% of all homicides.
00:42:40.000 That's up from 15% in 2020.
00:42:43.000 And the attacks in which someone kills four or more relatives, which is something that happened in your family, have already surpassed all of last year's total.
00:42:54.000 And this year is just halfway through.
00:42:56.000 So, have you noticed this type of messaging has gone into hyperdrive?
00:42:59.000 That's because the left is worried they don't want you to believe your lion eyes and lion ears.
00:43:03.000 Not that anecdotal is proof, but the claims that are being made to deliberately conflate are dishonest.
00:43:08.000 It's time for claim truth.
00:43:14.000 So, again, in the wake of the Clancy trial, here's a claim that you are very likely to hear.
00:43:17.000 Fathers are far more likely to kill their children.
00:43:19.000 Matter of fact, 95% of the time, it's the dad.
00:43:22.000 There is a little known anomaly in the recording of murder statistics and suicide statistics every year, and that is something known as familicide.
00:43:31.000 It's also sometimes referred to as familial annihilation.
00:43:35.000 And this typically happens when a member of the family, 95% of the time, a man, decides to kill all or many of the members in his family at one time.
00:43:46.000 Ah, okay.
00:43:47.000 So the goalposts have moved.
00:43:48.000 Here's the truth.
00:43:51.000 As far as fathers are more likely to kill their children, incorrect.
00:43:54.000 That statistic is based on 211 cases of what they say is familicide, meaning killing the whole family, not just kids.
00:44:00.000 That's filicide.
00:44:02.000 Here's the thing that's interesting about that stat.
00:44:05.000 And I'm going to issue some caveats here because basically, spoiler alert, all these numbers become a coin flip.
00:44:11.000 I'm willing to bet when someone reconducts the research, you're going to see mothers are far more likely to be violent and kill their kids.
00:44:18.000 Because of the dishonesty in the studies that we currently have.
00:44:21.000 So, that study, 211 cases, it included boyfriends or men living in the home versus only a biological mother.
00:44:31.000 Ah.
00:44:32.000 So, killing the whole family in the home, dads, boyfriends, men in the home versus only biological mother.
00:44:39.000 Now, that has nothing to do with a mom being more likely to kill their children.
00:44:43.000 Now, if you remove men in the home, boyfriends, that number becomes pretty much a coin flip.
00:44:48.000 The father in Killing the whole family is 47%, mother, 41%.
00:44:53.000 About.
00:44:53.000 So it's pretty close.
00:44:55.000 But that number is being thrown out there as though it's relevant to this.
00:44:58.000 It's not.
00:44:58.000 Here's the next claim that moms actually, they're really not likely to kill their children, except for, you know, abortion.
00:45:06.000 We're not going to count that, or like newborns.
00:45:08.000 But after that phase, fathers are far more often the real killers.
00:45:12.000 I think, why do fathers feel that they have to take their children's lives in order to get back at the mother?
00:45:25.000 And this is something you will see all over social media.
00:45:27.000 Here's the truth.
00:45:29.000 So the first day, Of a newborn's life, it's the mom.
00:45:33.000 Almost all of it.
00:45:34.000 90 something percent.
00:45:36.000 Anywhere from 93 to 98 percent, depending on the stat.
00:45:40.000 Okay, so first day.
00:45:41.000 And they'll just throw it in the trash, by the way.
00:45:43.000 This is not even including abortion.
00:45:44.000 Just the mom doesn't want the child.
00:45:46.000 Then the whole first year is still basically a coin flip.
00:45:51.000 So what you have is day one, the mother is most likely to kill the child.
00:45:54.000 If they're under one year old, it's a coin toss.
00:45:56.000 It's about 50 50 according to the study.
00:46:00.000 That's a far cry from what we heard 95% of the time, or the fathers are more likely to do it.
00:46:04.000 And I don't believe these numbers because, again, when you look into the methodology, they very often include boyfriends, men living in the home.
00:46:12.000 It's not seeking an honest result so that we can make a measured decision as far as policy, let's say as far as custody.
00:46:21.000 No, it's very clearly designed to be propaganda, and we've seen that quite a bit with familial studies.
00:46:26.000 Here's another claim that you will see it's all tossed in to defend the Lindsey Clancy trial and the mass psychosis defending of this woman therein.
00:46:37.000 Kids are actually okay.
00:46:40.000 Maybe let's say fathers don't get it, it's a coin toss, but kids are safer with the mom.
00:46:44.000 The real threat in the home overall is dad.
00:46:47.000 By far and away, the majority of safe parents are moms.
00:46:52.000 By far and away, the majority of safe parents are women.
00:46:56.000 Not true.
00:46:57.000 Here's the truth.
00:46:58.000 So, the beating house, when they talk about this, is actually mom plus boyfriend, not biological father.
00:47:05.000 Right.
00:47:06.000 So, if we look at the safety of children in households, Okay, married biological parents, that's where it's the safest.
00:47:12.000 A single parent with a live in partner, that's where you get 10 times the rate of abuse, eight times the rate of maltreatment or neglect.
00:47:19.000 But then if you just eliminate single mother households or separate, sorry, single mother households versus single father households, single mothers are 48% more likely to abuse children than single fathers.
00:47:31.000 So again, why would they conduct this and just include it and go, okay, we have mom, but with another man in the home?
00:47:37.000 No, we need to get the statistic if it's a single mother.
00:47:43.000 The mother of the child or the father, single father, because that is the determination you're making when you're going through, let's say, a legal custody battle.
00:47:51.000 What's best for the child?
00:47:52.000 Well, a single mother is 48% more likely to abuse that child.
00:47:57.000 Now, I will say, single fathers are twice as likely to make their kids look really cool.
00:48:04.000 That's a cool kid.
00:48:06.000 Is that a Schwinn? A Huffy?
00:48:09.000 These candy cigarettes are tearing me apart.
00:48:12.000 So.
00:48:14.000 This is something that's being thrown out there.
00:48:16.000 You hear this a lot.
00:48:17.000 And you'll hear the same thing often from leftist women where they go, Well, when you're dealing with immigrants, actually, the most likely scenario is a father in the home.
00:48:25.000 If there's a man in the house, you're more likely to experience violence.
00:48:28.000 It is not true.
00:48:30.000 And we've looked at those.
00:48:31.000 For example, if you look at domestic abuse, they used to cite a number saying men are more likely to be physically abusive.
00:48:39.000 Well, then you look at the studies, they've been conducted time and time again with much better methodology.
00:48:44.000 And they go, Wait a second.
00:48:46.000 Most domestic abuse is two way, meaning she swats him, he swats her, and of course there'll be a power differential.
00:48:51.000 The man's just going to be better at it.
00:48:53.000 But when you eliminate that and you say, okay, one way spousal abuse, meaning only one partner is physically abusive, it's not a passionate couple where they both have tempers.
00:49:03.000 Overwhelmingly, women are the ones more likely to commit spousal abuse than men.
00:49:09.000 So you ask yourself, well, why didn't we conduct the studies this way to begin with?
00:49:13.000 Well, for the same reason that that first study, again, alarm bells should go off.
00:49:17.000 Wait, One side is only biological mother and the other is bio father, boyfriend, or man in the home.
00:49:28.000 This is when trust the science falls apart because it applies to data too.
00:49:32.000 That's a science.
00:49:33.000 It can be manipulated.
00:49:34.000 And if you, if a layman like me, if a layman like you, go check the references, can just go through the tables and immediately go, wait a second, that doesn't make sense.
00:49:45.000 But then it's parroted.
00:49:47.000 It's the same trick that was pulled.
00:49:49.000 Remember, they said actually guns are the number one killer of children in the United States.
00:49:53.000 It's not even close.
00:49:54.000 That included teenagers in the Bloods and the Crips.
00:49:58.000 Same thing here.
00:50:00.000 As far as committing murder against your children, right now, best data we have, it's a coin flip.
00:50:07.000 Father and a mother.
00:50:09.000 As far as the safer household overall with abuse, single father.
00:50:14.000 And then on top of that, add the anecdotal your lion eyes and lion ears.
00:50:19.000 Yeah.
00:50:19.000 How many men have you seen support serial killers publicly?
00:50:25.000 Ever?
00:50:26.000 Ever?
00:50:27.000 Let alone to this level.
00:50:28.000 Or child killers.
00:50:29.000 Right.
00:50:29.000 Whether they be their own or not.
00:50:31.000 In prison, they get raped on principle.
00:50:35.000 Anyone who harms a child.
00:50:36.000 Yeah.
00:50:37.000 That's the law of the jungle with men in prison.
00:50:39.000 Yeah, the rapists don't even like it.
00:50:40.000 They're doing it because they have a duty.
00:50:41.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:50:42.000 They're like, they're picturing Kathy Island or something, but they're making it sting for the guy.
00:50:46.000 Kathy, why?
00:50:47.000 Yeah.
00:50:47.000 And guys like Andrew McCabe, they're not just misleading you, they are manipulating you.
00:50:52.000 Right.
00:50:53.000 And I think that's really key.
00:50:54.000 Like, you have to hone in on this.
00:50:55.000 That's manipulation.
00:50:57.000 You're trying to run cover for people who end up doing what Clancy did.
00:51:01.000 You're trying to say, see, it's the men in the household.
00:51:03.000 I know this Clancy outlet's an outlier.
00:51:05.000 I know the women are committing these abortions.
00:51:07.000 Don't talk about that.
00:51:07.000 I know the women are killing their babies.
00:51:09.000 Just don't talk about that stuff.
00:51:10.000 It's the men that are the problem.
00:51:12.000 Remember, the focus is the men.
00:51:14.000 When the men are the solution to the problem, that's what they don't want you to hear.
00:51:19.000 It's just a way of removing accountability.
00:51:21.000 Let's just apply this.
00:51:23.000 Apply the same lens to Clancy, where a ton of women who go, even the women who go, I think it's horrible and she should be punished for executing her three children.
00:51:31.000 But that husband didn't do enough.
00:51:33.000 Now, first off, I would disagree.
00:51:35.000 Paternity leave, he worked from home so that he could help her out.
00:51:38.000 He was going to pick up groceries, he was going to pick up food and prescriptions.
00:51:41.000 That's how she knew to plan to murder her three children.
00:51:44.000 Okay, but let's just grant it.
00:51:46.000 Yeah, she shouldn't have done it, but he wasn't doing enough.
00:51:49.000 Okay?
00:51:49.000 Was she doing enough?
00:51:55.000 Was she doing enough?
00:51:57.000 Or was she doctor shopping?
00:51:59.000 Was she staying home because she had a bad day and sending her husband out to get Chinese food or whatever it was?
00:52:03.000 Instead of making a nice meal and making a house home for her kids.
00:52:06.000 So, if we're going to say the husband wasn't doing enough, fine, was she doing enough?
00:52:11.000 Then why is it relevant?
00:52:13.000 The issue is the accountability for murdering children.
00:52:17.000 And I would say that that husband was doing far and away more than would be required of a man like him, and she wasn't doing enough.
00:52:25.000 That's the uncomfortable truth for even a lot of reasonable women out there who go, well, she should be punished, but he probably could have done more.
00:52:32.000 Could she have done more?
00:52:34.000 Let's say she didn't even kill those children, let's say they're still alive.
00:52:38.000 You could be a fly on the wall in that household.
00:52:41.000 You think you'd see a husband and a father not doing anything?
00:52:44.000 You think you'd see Lindsey Clancy being mom of the year?
00:52:47.000 Or do you think you'd see a lady hosting a pity party for herself, asking everyone else to make up for her shortcomings?
00:52:55.000 That's why I won't play that game.
00:52:56.000 That's why I won't play that game, and I won't entertain a dialogue with women who do.
00:53:01.000 And of course, the women who agree, this doesn't apply to you.
00:53:05.000 Here's a good rule of thumb don't kill your children, and that's it.
00:53:14.000 And if you do, you should be killed.
00:53:17.000 But I'll add one more.
00:53:18.000 Don't hire Nick DiPaolo as your bathroom attendant.
00:53:21.000 Thank you.
00:53:31.000 What's a mint?
00:53:32.000 You think they can light these on fire?
00:53:34.000 Hey, what's going on?
00:53:35.000 You're still here.
00:53:36.000 I'm still here.
00:53:36.000 You know what?
00:53:36.000 I'm kind of liking this bathroom attendant gig thing.
00:53:39.000 I think we should expand, though.
00:53:41.000 You know, like an all women's division.
00:53:43.000 It gets an all women watching guys.
00:53:45.000 No, absolutely not.
00:53:46.000 Well, you know what?
00:53:47.000 This is a single use stall.
00:53:49.000 It's already mixed.
00:53:50.000 Join Bigger, go home.
00:53:51.000 We just open it up to a lot of women.
00:53:55.000 They go to the bathroom, too.
00:53:56.000 They go to the bathroom.
00:53:57.000 They pay them enough.
00:53:58.000 You know, cough syrup, hairspray, date rape drugs.
00:54:01.000 You know what I mean?
00:54:02.000 Well, yeah, I guess if it's going with a theme.
00:54:04.000 How about a drive through?
00:54:05.000 Huh?
00:54:06.000 I just got it.
00:54:07.000 A drive-thru.
00:54:08.000 They pull up, I hand them a stick of gum, and then I make a comment.
00:54:12.000 I said, You get on your hair.
00:54:14.000 It looks like it belongs in a kid in a St. Jude's commercial.
00:54:17.000 And they laugh.
00:54:17.000 People love this.
00:54:18.000 What are they going to the bathroom in their car while they drive-thru?
00:54:21.000 How about this?
00:54:21.000 You write down a five-point business plan for this, and then I'll sit, spend some time with it, and then tell you no.
00:54:27.000 What are we doing here?
00:54:28.000 Wall Street 2?
00:54:29.000 Who are you, Gordon Gecko?
00:54:30.000 I know what it is.
00:54:31.000 You're afraid.
00:54:32.000 You're afraid that you're the McDonald brothers.
00:54:35.000 What does that mean?
00:54:36.000 Couple of people.
00:54:37.000 Ray Kroc comes in, makes them sign their lifeway.
00:54:39.000 They don't know they're signing the lifeway, and then he gets all the goods, and then they try to get back in, and it's too late.
00:54:45.000 So I'm not the McDonald's brothers in this.
00:54:47.000 Well, I think you're threatened by my business savvy now.
00:54:49.000 You're Ray Kroc?
00:54:50.000 Yeah, I'm Ray Kroc.
00:54:52.000 And you're the McDonald's brothers.
00:54:56.000 You're the dumb one.
00:54:58.000 Come on, think about it.
00:54:59.000 Put my face in all these soap dispensers.
00:55:12.000 What's a mint?
00:55:14.000 I forgot.
00:55:14.000 That's why I just got 14 soap dispensers with Nick DiPaolo's face on it.
00:55:18.000 It was 15.
00:55:19.000 I took one for a while.
00:55:20.000 Oh, well, that makes sense.
00:55:20.000 I need one.
00:55:21.000 Yeah, you don't even have soap.
00:55:23.000 Doesn't matter.
00:55:23.000 Well, there's a dispenser.
00:55:24.000 Yeah.
00:55:25.000 I put whatever I wanted in there.
00:55:26.000 Yeah, that's true.
00:55:27.000 Well, I don't know what's in there, but it's definitely not soap.
00:55:30.000 I was stealing relish from Costco.
00:55:31.000 I'm going to put it in there.
00:55:32.000 Exactly.
00:55:32.000 And then you just put it on your tray on a plane.
00:55:36.000 Yeah, I just eat that.
00:55:38.000 The polymer really sets off the relish.
00:55:40.000 You're disgusting.
00:55:40.000 All right, did you have anything on Lindsay Clay?
00:55:42.000 You want to go on to the oil deal?
00:55:43.000 Yeah, I mean, I just.
00:55:44.000 There's nothing yet on the Lindsey claims.
00:55:46.000 Oil deal.
00:55:48.000 Oil deal.
00:55:49.000 I've said this before.
00:55:50.000 This is where people can say, man, you're out of.
00:55:53.000 I'm pretty big on killing Islamic terrorists and commies.
00:55:55.000 Yeah.
00:55:56.000 I like it.
00:55:58.000 It's a good time.
00:55:58.000 I'm a fan.
00:55:59.000 Yeah.
00:56:00.000 I still think that Pinko commie is like the checkmate if someone actually is a Pinko commie.
00:56:06.000 So I'm a big fan of when the opportunity avails itself, taking out a commie, replacing them, And then setting an economic deal that's beneficial to Americans.
00:56:17.000 And there are a few things out there that are more important to the economic survival of the United States as energy security.
00:56:24.000 So, to give you an idea historically and check the references, energy security is a big reason that Japan attacked Pearl Harbor.
00:56:31.000 It's a big reason that the UK and the US backed the Iran coup in 1953.
00:56:35.000 It's a huge reason that China's desperately trying to replace its dependence on the Malacca Strait.
00:56:39.000 And it's why President Trump's actions, his awesome actions in Venezuela, have been if.
00:56:45.000 Executed properly, I understand things remain to be seen.
00:56:48.000 They could be a complete game changer.
00:56:50.000 So, if you had forgotten, remember after Trump stole Maduro in the dead of night and his people surrendered him immediately, a lot of them were Cuban.
00:56:56.000 He declared that the United States would be doing great things with the oil.
00:57:01.000 As everyone knows, the oil business in Venezuela has been a bust, a total bust, for a long period of time.
00:57:09.000 They were pumping almost nothing by comparison to what they could have been pumping and what could have taken place.
00:57:18.000 We're going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country.
00:57:37.000 Now, let's just put on the shelf for a bit that international courts deemed that Venezuela owed multiple American corporations, I believe it was something like $11 billion, because we invested in infrastructure, they just took it over.
00:57:47.000 So when people say, well, what have they done to Americans?
00:57:50.000 A lot.
00:57:50.000 That.
00:57:51.000 Just like with Iran, when they go, I'm like, but they haven't killed it, they've killed many, many Americans.
00:57:54.000 Oh, now you're moving the goalposts just on American soil.
00:57:57.000 Okay, I'm not saying that that means it was anything other than ill advised to carry out the Iran conflict the way they did, but to say that Iran hasn't killed Americans is dishonest.
00:58:04.000 To say that Venezuela hasn't harmed Americans is dishonest.
00:58:07.000 And people would use that to then oppose Donald Trump's economic policy, his actions with Maduro.
00:58:12.000 And remember, because we're going to come back to this, people, the doomers, the black pillars said that none of that's going to happen.
00:58:20.000 It's all just fluff and fairy dust.
00:58:22.000 If we look at the legal and commercial constructs and frameworks in place today in Venezuela, today it's uninvestable.
00:58:30.000 Oil operations could be up and running in 18 months.
00:58:34.000 Is that the case?
00:58:35.000 Well, I don't think that it's clear exactly what he means.
00:58:40.000 But, you know, Venezuela would require about $100 billion of investment.
00:58:46.000 Chevron is potentially best positioned to capitalize on any new opportunities to come within Venezuela.
00:58:53.000 That said, it's an extremely long road to any of that happening.
00:58:56.000 In addition to the geology that's at question with Venezuela, they have very large oil reserves.
00:59:01.000 There's also the question of decrepit infrastructure in the country, which will take billions of dollars of investment in years of time.
00:59:06.000 When you hear from the administration, the usual anonymous sources, that they think they can work with Delcy Rodriguez to transition to something, I don't know what the something is, and that the Venezuelan oil industry is just going to emerge from the ashes and suddenly be a big producer again, I think people are dreaming.
00:59:28.000 Well, what do you think they're dreaming?
00:59:29.000 Which brings us to now in President Trump's announcement, and I'll get to why this is good for America here on Truth Social.
00:59:34.000 He wrote Breaking news the United States of America has just entered into an agreement with the country of Venezuela on the All caps, biggest oil deal in world history.
00:59:45.000 True.
00:59:47.000 At my direction, Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Secretary of War Pete Exeth, working closely with highly respected interim president of Venezuela, Delcy Rodriguez, and through a partnership with private business, have secured majority U.S. control of more than 65 billion barrels of proven oil reserves in Venezuela at no cost to the American taxpayer.
01:00:07.000 This historic transaction more than doubles American oil reserves, greatly increases our oil supply, and I will.
01:00:14.000 Sorry, and will substantially lower gas prices, caps gas and prices for some reason, for all Americans long into the future while helping to continue to set Venezuela on a course toward tremendous success and great prosperity.
01:00:29.000 Now, the acting president, I mentioned Rodriguez, called the deal historic.
01:00:33.000 So it seems to me that there's a give and take in working together.
01:00:35.000 We, of course, didn't see with communist.
01:00:37.000 No, Guar.
01:00:38.000 No.
01:00:39.000 Maduro.
01:00:41.000 President Rodriguez wrote I extend my deepest gratitude to the president of the United States of America, Donald Trump, as well as to Secretary of State. Marco Rubio and the U.S. government for their support in developing this agreement, which represents a historic milestone in bilateral relations between Venezuela and the United States.
01:01:01.000 Please, please, please.
01:01:02.000 So, this is beneficial to you.
01:01:06.000 This is where people say, well, how does that benefit me?
01:01:08.000 Energy security is a huge deal.
01:01:10.000 Oil is a global commodity.
01:01:13.000 For example, if you look at what's happening with Iran and the gas prices that you're paying, you understand that it's a global commodity that hasn't affected our own oil reserves, but it affects.
01:01:20.000 Globally, this can do that in the opposite direction and more importantly, blocks out China.
01:01:24.000 Venezuela is stoked.
01:01:26.000 Right now, they're like the modern day Venezuelan Beverly Hillbillies.
01:01:30.000 Come and listen to a story about a man named Luis, a poor Venezuelan who was living on the streets.
01:01:35.000 Then one day Maduro went away.
01:01:38.000 Trump came in and said Luis should get in pay.
01:01:43.000 Vagina.
01:01:44.000 Oh, that got his attention.
01:01:47.000 Me gusta.
01:01:48.000 ¿A dónde?
01:01:50.000 It's a family.
01:01:50.000 We're moving to Caracas.
01:01:51.000 That's right.
01:01:52.000 But first, Where do we hear the vagina from?
01:01:57.000 That is my North Star.
01:02:00.000 So, first, let me give it to you why this deal matters, and I'll show you people who are still unhappy with it.
01:02:04.000 Like I said, energy security 65 billion barrels.
01:02:06.000 At least.
01:02:07.000 At least.
01:02:08.000 So, the United States is going to run and basically control the second largest oil reserves in the world.
01:02:16.000 Saudi Aramco is number one, to be clear.
01:02:19.000 This locks China out of Venezuela and reestablishes the Monroe Doctrine as far as controlling what happens in our hemisphere, right?
01:02:27.000 Yeah.
01:02:27.000 Remember that when the people who say this isn't a big deal, then why was China there?
01:02:30.000 Yes.
01:02:31.000 You think China's investing in a place that's not a big deal?
01:02:33.000 That's a huge deal.
01:02:34.000 And China has been, of course, they were working hand in hand.
01:02:36.000 And we see that, by the way, China, Cuba, the unholy alliance with Maduro, previously Chavez, who was supported by people like Oliver Stone and Bernie Sanders and Sean Penn and those on the left.
01:02:47.000 So when you understand gas prices and how much you pay at the pump, don't forget the people who supported propping up a socialist dictator who nationalized the oil industry and screwed American companies who had created the investment infrastructure.
01:02:57.000 This also, by the way, is important.
01:03:00.000 When people say we're isolating ourselves, trust internationally.
01:03:03.000 By working with this new interim president, it shows that the United States is willing to cooperate, right?
01:03:09.000 It's the stick and the carrot.
01:03:11.000 So, this, again, I know that execution is going to be key, and I understand versus that light, sweet oil versus crude.
01:03:20.000 All of that I understand.
01:03:21.000 You have to understand that oil is a global commodity, and if it's not something that we're going to use or refine, we can sell it to people who will, and it stabilizes oil across the world.
01:03:29.000 It really comes down to this do you want China to have access to that, or is it better for the United States to be working hand in hand?
01:03:37.000 Because that's where we were, and that's where we are.
01:03:41.000 This is no small thing.
01:03:42.000 And of course, you still have people who are unhappy with this because Donald Trump is bad.
01:03:48.000 Sad to see.
01:03:49.000 It's like we've rolled back the clock 100 years to the era of gunboat diplomacy.
01:03:55.000 It's wrong.
01:03:56.000 Hold on one second.
01:03:56.000 Let's pause that clip.
01:03:57.000 I didn't realize I'd gone over time.
01:03:58.000 So hold on.
01:03:59.000 We're going to go into that clip, and then we have more to get to, including something that could never absolutely make air.

01:04:17.000 But let's go back into this montage.
01:04:19.000 People who should be celebrating this if they are America first or if they care about Americans, still upset.
01:04:24.000 Sad to see.
01:04:25.000 It's like we've rolled back the clock a hundred times.
01:06:01.000 Thanks for watching!
01:06:06.000 Sad to see.
01:06:07.000 It's like we've rolled back the clock a hundred years to the era of gunboat diplomacy.
01:06:12.000 It's wrong.
01:06:13.000 It's wrong to have a colonial model of the world.
01:06:15.000 And I thought America had stood for decolonization.
01:06:19.000 Trump is rolling it all back because he simply believes in a world where might makes right.
01:06:24.000 We are hearing ramblings that that is, Ray, I'm sorry, rambling's the wrong word, excuse me.
01:06:27.000 We're hearing.
01:06:28.000 Guy wasn't even killed.
01:06:29.000 Rumblings, sorry, it's early.
01:06:31.000 That is, they're unhappy with the U.S. at this move.
01:06:34.000 It seemed as colonial.
01:06:35.000 Who do you want to deal with, an unstable government like Venezuela?
01:06:39.000 Or a tomato.
01:06:40.000 Can I keep him?
01:06:44.000 I'll call him ketchup.
01:06:52.000 This is imperialism.
01:06:54.000 This is 19th century imperialism, 18th, 17th, 16th century imperialism.
01:06:59.000 20th century, also, actually.
01:07:02.000 Went to countries in the South and used military power and military force to extract gold, silver, spices, oil.
01:07:12.000 That's what President Trump is doing with this deal.
01:07:14.000 Now, let me just touch on something here really quickly.
01:07:18.000 Here's how you know those people hate the United States of America.
01:07:21.000 They're starting off, they're hoping that you follow them with a jumping off point, the premise might makes right.
01:07:27.000 That's just, that's exclusive to America.
01:07:30.000 Okay, hold on a second.
01:07:35.000 What about the elections in Venezuela?
01:07:37.000 Bread lines?
01:07:38.000 People starving?
01:07:40.000 Average weight lost?
01:07:42.000 The Venezuelan citizens over the last five to ten years.
01:07:46.000 Hold on a second.
01:07:48.000 Might makes right.
01:07:49.000 You only apply it when the United States does it?
01:07:52.000 Why don't you apply it with these nations that oppress their own people and jail dissidents and suspend elections?
01:08:01.000 It'd be one thing if it's just might makes right.
01:08:03.000 We went in and we enslaved the citizens, you know, like a lot of African countries do, like a lot of Arabic countries do, like a lot of those in the upper classes in India effectively still do.
01:08:12.000 It's different when you go, oh, wait a second.
01:08:15.000 This is an authoritarian socialist dictatorship that is abusing its own people.
01:08:19.000 Let me ask you was it might makes right when Chavez nationalized the oil industry and just told American companies, yeah, all your infrastructure that you invested, we're taking it now.
01:08:28.000 The reason you can't take it back is because men with guns are surrounding your investment in your property.
01:08:34.000 It's only might makes right and evil when the United States says, no, We're not going to let you play that game anymore.
01:08:41.000 If you believe that the United States exercising might is always immoral, Then you're simply allowing the rest of the world to have might make right.
01:08:50.000 And that might creates socialism, communism, Marxism, totalitarianism, because the only thing that can stop it would be the might of the United States.
01:09:01.000 Might makes right is exercised around the world, but these people act like we're the only ones who do it.
01:09:07.000 Yeah, doing this and kidnapping someone effectively nonviolently in the middle of the night.
01:09:17.000 And allowing the economy to thrive, first off, allowing American companies to get their investment back, and allowing the people of Venezuela to have a fighting chance to regain the 18 pounds lost because they've all been starving.
01:09:28.000 No, no, no, that's wrong.
01:09:29.000 These are the same people who say guns bad, even if someone uses a gun to stop rape.
01:09:34.000 That's why it's silly.
01:09:35.000 And their starting off point is how can I vilify the United States?
01:09:39.000 It's fine when we do it in the country to, you know, take the means of production.
01:09:43.000 Sure.
01:09:44.000 Yeah.
01:09:45.000 Mike makes right is the only way socialism works.
01:09:47.000 Also, uh, Leader doesn't look like he's doing that bad.
01:09:50.000 No, he doesn't look like he's missed a meal.
01:09:52.000 That was from June.
01:09:54.000 No, this is for pizza.
01:09:55.000 That's right.
01:09:56.000 Listen, he's for pizza.
01:09:57.000 Two fingers are for pizza.
01:09:59.000 For pizza.
01:10:00.000 And these two fingers are for me.
01:10:01.000 That's right.
01:10:03.000 Is he wearing the same gray sweatshirt?
01:10:05.000 Probably.
01:10:06.000 I like.
01:10:06.000 They don't have a lot of, like, an extensive wardrobe.
01:10:11.000 I'm like Steve Jobs.
01:10:12.000 I am so smart.
01:10:13.000 I don't want to think of a wardrobe.
01:10:15.000 Hey, this is the same outfit that Michael Jordan wears in Space Jam.
01:10:19.000 That's right.
01:10:21.000 Bitch.
01:10:22.000 Oh, no.
01:10:23.000 Someone gave me some Monstar juice.
01:10:27.000 You mean Sneako milk?
01:10:28.000 That's right.
01:10:29.000 I don't understand.
01:10:31.000 Don't know who that is.
01:10:33.000 You were going to say something too.
01:10:33.000 It's also 20th century.
01:10:35.000 Yeah.
01:10:35.000 There's, yeah, talking about colonialism and imperialism and.
01:10:39.000 Taking other territories and going in for their resources and stuff.
01:10:42.000 That's not a 19th century.
01:10:44.000 It's happened as soon as, as recent as less than 100 years ago.
01:10:48.000 Right.
01:10:48.000 I mean, in the 20th century, we took multiple properties.
01:10:50.000 The Virgin Islands, I think Guam was either 1898 or 1900.
01:10:56.000 Samoa was in the 1900s.
01:10:59.000 I mean, Hawaii, 1898 as well.
01:11:01.000 I mean, I get it's 19th century, but it's practically 20th century.
01:11:04.000 It's not a new thing or it's not an old thing that we haven't done in forever.
01:11:08.000 Right.
01:11:09.000 Our latest state was in the 50s.
01:11:10.000 Yeah.
01:11:11.000 Yeah.
01:11:12.000 And it makes sense sometimes, especially when you're going, oh, wait a second.
01:11:14.000 These guys are evil and violent and oppress their own people.
01:11:16.000 Well, you know what?
01:11:17.000 I think we can do better than that.
01:11:18.000 Yeah, we took out a drug lord legally, put him on trial.
01:11:21.000 Does that look like colonialism to you?
01:11:23.000 Hey, if we're going to consider this in the same vein as any colonialism or imperialism in the past, or in America's past, or in anyone's past for that matter, it's pretty mild.
01:11:32.000 Yeah.
01:11:32.000 Yeah.
01:11:33.000 It's pretty mild.
01:11:34.000 We let them have their own leader back.
01:11:35.000 We said, we're not going to F with your laws.
01:11:38.000 No.
01:11:38.000 We just, hey, you know that oil infrastructure that our companies gave and then you nationalized and stole?
01:11:44.000 We're going to have to take that back.
01:11:45.000 Right.
01:11:45.000 You guys are going to have to actually start playing fair.
01:11:47.000 And don't sell to China, but we'll buy it at a fair price.
01:11:50.000 It's a lot different than what they're trying to make it say.
01:11:52.000 Don't sell to China because I don't know if you know this, but Might Makes Right over there, they still have like the Uyghurs in a windowless room.
01:11:57.000 That's so.
01:11:58.000 How about you just do commerce with us as opposed to, you know, a slave state?
01:12:03.000 Ask the Congo who does Might Makes Right.
01:12:05.000 Right.
01:12:05.000 Yeah, exactly.
01:12:06.000 Exactly.
01:12:06.000 And we will build the infrastructure.
01:12:08.000 That's something that they can't do.
01:12:09.000 They're sitting on a gold mine right now that they can't do anything with.
01:12:11.000 And I love when he's like, this is like what we used to do.
01:12:13.000 We used to go down there and extract the gold and the spices.
01:12:15.000 I'm like, yeah, I remember going down there and paying for it.
01:12:18.000 Said no one ever, the conquistadors show up, they're like, that's ours.
01:12:22.000 We're taking that.
01:12:23.000 We're not going to give you guys money for this.
01:12:24.000 We can just chop your heads off.
01:12:25.000 And do you know why they gave it to the conquistadors?
01:12:28.000 There were 500 or so conquistadors, a very, very low number.
01:12:31.000 There were many, many hundreds of thousands of natives.
01:12:35.000 The natives helped them get it.
01:12:36.000 Why?
01:12:36.000 Because the natives were the ones who had already filled those caves with gold while enslaved to other natives.
01:12:43.000 Yes.
01:12:43.000 So you're like, wait a second.
01:12:45.000 All we've known for generation after generation is being slaves and being given two options.
01:12:51.000 Go procure gold for these other native overlords or to die.
01:12:56.000 So, hey, if you don't make us die, we'll help give you the gold.
01:13:00.000 Are we allowed to live if we give you?
01:13:01.000 Oh, okay, great.
01:13:02.000 And you're not going to enslave us the same way?
01:13:04.000 Well, cool.
01:13:05.000 By the way, they still have a ton of gold.
01:13:07.000 Yes.
01:13:07.000 Yeah.
01:13:08.000 And we're not taking it.
01:13:09.000 You're right.
01:13:10.000 We totally could take everything.
01:13:11.000 Yeah.
01:13:12.000 If we wanted to.
01:13:13.000 Still playing soccer balls with kids' heads.
01:13:15.000 They still do that every Saturday, they do.
01:13:17.000 Yeah, pretty much.
01:13:17.000 That's what they do.
01:13:18.000 It's ridiculous.
01:13:19.000 Weird.
01:13:19.000 So, this is something when you say, what are we doing for the United States of America?
01:13:21.000 Well, here you go.
01:13:22.000 Wouldn't you like to see it?
01:13:23.000 It's huge.
01:13:23.000 Lower prices at the pump.
01:13:24.000 You need to take all of these variables into account.
01:13:26.000 People just go, this is just terrible.
01:13:28.000 Yeah.
01:13:28.000 I think there's no winning with certain people.
01:13:30.000 Like that Roe Connor, what is that guy on?
01:13:32.000 Does that guy just hate this country?
01:13:34.000 I think so.
01:13:34.000 Anything that you can do to make Donald Trump look bad or say, oh, we're using our power in ways that we shouldn't, it's like, I don't think he's that dumb.
01:13:42.000 I think he's malicious.
01:13:43.000 He's really good.
01:13:44.000 We can talk about that.
01:13:44.000 Make sure you don't attribute it incorrectly.
01:13:46.000 I get it.
01:13:46.000 This case, I think it's just malicious because he's like, I want to win elections.
01:13:49.000 I don't like Donald Trump.
01:13:50.000 And I can make this look like America bad, imperialism bad, because we have that socialist wing of the Democrat Party right now.
01:13:57.000 Really gaining popularity.
01:13:58.000 I need to throw them a bone so that I can get some votes.
01:14:01.000 That's what I think is happening right now.
01:14:03.000 He's also one of these guys that, you know, he goes by this philosophy, or it seems like he goes by this philosophy of America is bad.
01:14:10.000 Everything he says about America's past is always bad.
01:14:12.000 He never goes like, oh, well, this is a great thing about American history that we used to do this.
01:14:16.000 Or, oh, look at the founding fathers, look at the documents.
01:14:20.000 They never know any of that.
01:14:21.000 It's always all colonialism, imperialism, civil rights, everything that we've done bad.
01:14:25.000 The only thing they like about the United States is a lie.
01:14:27.000 They go, we're a nation of immigrants.
01:14:28.000 We just saw the Statue of Liberty.
01:14:29.000 We let anybody in, and we never had immigration policy.
01:14:31.000 Just shut up.
01:14:33.000 All right, let me ask you this.
01:14:33.000 Let's move on to the next one because this is an important topic.
01:14:35.000 First off, Before I get to it, I know people have mixed opinions on this.
01:14:41.000 What are your opinions?
01:14:42.000 Where do you line up on Ozempic and these weight loss drugs, these GLP ones?
01:14:46.000 You guys, but then where do you guys line up?
01:14:49.000 I don't have a problem with people doing it.
01:14:50.000 I wouldn't do it myself, probably, just because I do worry about side effects and stuff.
01:14:55.000 And I would feel much better if I lost the weight the old school way with hard work and self discipline.
01:15:06.000 I got no problem with somebody doing it.
01:15:07.000 It's a tool that can be used.
01:15:08.000 Yeah, it's a tool that can be used, and hopefully, your side effects aren't a problem.
01:15:13.000 Zombies.
01:15:14.000 And good for you.
01:15:16.000 What do you think?
01:15:16.000 Listen, I think if you're able bodied, that you should stay as far away from them as possible.
01:15:20.000 I think if you're getting older and you have limited mobility and issues and you need some help to do this, I think it can be incredibly helpful for people who struggle with their weight at an older age where they can't do as much about it.
01:15:31.000 So, it's this whole reason not to carry it into old age.
01:15:34.000 Make sure you get rid of it because I still remember, you know, when my grandmother was taking the Fen Fen and Redux stuff, that they were like, this is the best weight loss.
01:15:41.000 Drug ever.
01:15:42.000 And then all of a sudden it's like, hey, wait, that's a bad idea.
01:15:44.000 And now they're being sued by everybody and they had to pay out.
01:15:46.000 And there was this whole big deal about it.
01:15:48.000 So I don't know how, you know, scientifically how this works in a different way.
01:15:51.000 So maybe there's not the same kind of risks.
01:15:54.000 But I think we go into a lot of these things thinking that.
01:15:56.000 And so I'm just like very hesitant to say anybody young, able bodied, who's just looking to lose weight should do it.
01:16:01.000 And there's one other thing too.
01:16:02.000 If somebody's taking it, like I said, no problem.
01:16:05.000 Good for you.
01:16:06.000 I'm happy for you.
01:16:07.000 But at the same time, don't come over here bragging at me.
01:16:10.000 Yeah.
01:16:11.000 Don't come over here.
01:16:11.000 Oh, look at me.
01:16:13.000 Oh, I got to shut up.
01:16:15.000 Yeah, it's like The Rock, where it's like, I get the just good clean living.
01:16:18.000 Yeah, don't be proud of yourself.
01:16:20.000 Get that pride out of my face.
01:16:22.000 I'm happy for you, but have some humility.
01:16:26.000 I think it's a net positive for society as a whole where obesity has been an epidemic.
01:16:30.000 I think for the individual, it could definitely be a net negative because just like lottery winners, right?
01:16:36.000 They maybe haven't married those results to the same level of discipline, but there are some people where it does make sense.
01:16:43.000 And I will say this.
01:16:46.000 Want to be evidence minded as far as looking at drugs or medications.
01:16:51.000 I am not anti Western medicine.
01:16:53.000 I am not simply pro supplementation because there's a lot of BS there too.
01:16:57.000 But I also understand that there are a lot of murky territories in the pharmaceutical industry.
01:17:03.000 That being said, all drugs are performance enhancers.
01:17:07.000 It's a term that's kind of a misnomer Tylenol, ibuprofen, aspirin, these are performance enhancers.
01:17:14.000 A decongestant is a performance enhancer.
01:17:16.000 A statin for some people is a performance enhancer, blood pressure medication, insulin, right?
01:17:22.000 No doctor can prescribe you a medication that would be a performance dehancer, if that's a word.
01:17:27.000 Yeah.
01:17:28.000 And so I think you need to weigh, okay, the benefits and, of course, the sort of caveats with that.
01:17:35.000 There are some things I will say too with these drugs.
01:17:37.000 Like, what's the new one that's not approved yet, but people are getting on the gray market?
01:17:40.000 Retta, it's the third generation.
01:17:42.000 There was Ozempic, then Trizepatide, and Retta, they just found like 70 something percent of people taking it, their knee.
01:17:49.000 Went away.
01:17:49.000 Like it actually may help with cartilage.
01:17:51.000 So that's something to me.
01:17:53.000 Because it sticks me with it.
01:17:54.000 Because I have no knees.
01:17:55.000 I have no knees.
01:17:56.000 Where I'm like, okay, there could, but I don't want the weight loss effect.
01:17:59.000 Yeah.
01:17:59.000 So I think we can overeat and compensate for that.
01:18:02.000 Yes, I think you probably do.
01:18:03.000 But it makes it hard because it kills your appetite.
01:18:05.000 No, no, I'm fine.
01:18:06.000 I just, it's, I don't need an appetite.
01:18:07.000 What are you talking about?
01:18:08.000 I just eat when I want to.
01:18:09.000 So, on a personal basis, okay, we can take some chats on that, and I'm interested to see your opinions.
01:18:13.000 But I will say, I am very thankful for the fact that these weight loss drugs have created unbelievable clarity.
01:18:23.000 And by that, I mean people who said, you know, oh, it must be nice.
01:18:26.000 You don't, I do everything right and I can't lose the weight.
01:18:28.000 Then they get on a pill and they lose the weight, which, by the way, doesn't necessarily just make your body burn fat, it just reduces your appetite.
01:18:33.000 Oh, it turns out you were eating too much.
01:18:35.000 Or wait, you were a fat pride advocate and now you're taking selfies in a bikini on the gram?
01:18:40.000 Oh, it seems like you weren't that proud.
01:18:42.000 You were making excuses and condemning those who did the work and didn't simply find their weight loss in the bottom of a bottle.
01:18:50.000 Case in point, here I want to officially thank Ozempic or Manjaro, Ozette Bound, whatever it is, for Demi Lovato being somewhat hot again.
01:19:06.000 She didn't used to be able to do that.
01:19:09.000 No. They had to have multiple bars.
01:19:13.000 In a forklift.
01:19:21.000 Never heard the song in my life.
01:19:23.000 Well, no, no one has.
01:19:26.000 I don't think anybody is celebrating her later catalog.
01:19:30.000 I think there's something wrong with her outfit.
01:19:32.000 There's a couple holes in it.
01:19:33.000 Yeah, it does seem like it would be kind of drafty.
01:19:35.000 So remember, Debbie Lovato started off as an attractive female performer.
01:19:40.000 Then about five years ago, she went this direction.
01:19:43.000 Right?
01:19:44.000 And then she was like gender non binary.
01:19:46.000 Dude, that's terrible.
01:19:47.000 And now, and I can't prove that she has been on a weight loss drug, but it did happen pretty quickly post Ozempic or whatever, just as far as the era.
01:19:55.000 Here she is.
01:19:56.000 So again, we've seen the changes, and it's not just the changes, it's the showing off.
01:20:00.000 It's the I'm not going to let anybody judge me.
01:20:02.000 By the way, I'm gender non binary.
01:20:04.000 And then look at me.
01:20:05.000 Please look at my body.
01:20:05.000 Here's what we have learned that with celebrities, but particularly with even female influencers, the social currency is attention.
01:20:14.000 So Demi Lovato got a lot of attention because she was an attractive woman.
01:20:16.000 I believe she was probably somewhat talented.
