00:02:50.000 Mr. Morgan was a man who got everything he wanted and then lost it.

00:03:00.000 Maybe Mug Club was something he couldn't get or something he lost in a drunken stupor.

00:03:05.000 Anyway, it wouldn't have saved anything, the wine.

00:05:03.000 That was a bipartisan sip.

00:05:09.000 Don't start.

00:05:09.000 Aggressively bipartisan.

00:05:11.000 Okay, I'll just sit here idly.

00:05:11.000 Oh, don't start?

00:05:15.000 Okay, start.

00:05:16.000 Alright.

00:05:19.000 That's the theme of today's program.

00:05:23.000 We've sheddled it in advance.

00:05:26.000 Is bipartisan.

00:05:28.000 Hey, you guys, so let's just bring this up here.

00:05:29.000 Let's bring up the top sheet really quickly.

00:05:31.000 The Senate border bill.

00:05:32.000 We're going to explain that.

00:05:33.000 We're going to explain where it is, by the way.

00:05:34.000 Before it goes to committee!

00:05:36.000 Oh yeah!

00:05:37.000 Because a lot of people think it's already passed, it's law, and then once it goes through the Senate and then it goes to the House.

00:05:41.000 Like, this happens a lot where the story then re-emerges, and people don't necessarily know where they are in the process.

00:05:46.000 This is not going to make it through the House, just to be clear.

00:05:48.000 We're also going to discuss Tucker Carlson, and whether interviewing dictators, which he has not done, with a nation with which we are not at war, is ever appropriate.

00:05:59.000 Spoiler alert, it's been done many, many, many times before.

00:06:01.000 And then we'll also be talking about this new Woke Kindergarten initiative.

00:06:05.000 That, uh, well, basically cost the schools more money and lowered test scores.

00:06:09.000 So.

00:06:09.000 Oh, good.

00:06:10.000 That's great.

00:06:11.000 Progress.

00:06:11.000 I have a few questions.

00:06:12.000 We're going to ask you a few questions today, but, um, what do you think when you hear Democrats come out and say, this is bipartisan?

00:06:20.000 You think that's a good thing?

00:06:24.000 That's the playbook.

00:06:25.000 Watch.

00:06:25.000 You're going to have this on the news for the next three, four, five days, and it'll reemerge.

00:06:30.000 Once it goes, they're going to say, bipartisan Republicans, your move.

00:06:33.000 When they say bipartisan, they mean one of those things where everybody loses, just to be clear, and notice the closer you get to the top, the fewer people who are involved, they're much closer together.

00:06:44.000 Someone like a Mitch McConnell, very, very close to former Vice President Joe Biden.

00:06:48.000 different from your local representatives when you have a wider sample, wider sample size.

00:06:53.000 And also, what do you think about Tucker Carlson if he interviews Putin? Do you think that's a

00:06:58.000 problem? And if you could spend one day with Vladimir Putin and not be locked up,

00:07:02.000 what question would you want to ask?

00:07:05.000 Assume you're Brittany Griner where you get off scot-free.

00:07:08.000 For the Lord of War.

00:07:10.000 Merchant of Death.

00:07:11.000 Merchant of Death.

00:07:13.000 No.

00:07:13.000 Good trade.

00:07:15.000 That wouldn't even be a good trade in the WNBA if there was a player named Merchant O'Death. 1.00

00:07:20.000 It wouldn't even be a good trade if you got the entire WNBA in exchange for this guy. 1.00

00:07:24.000 No, no, I'm saying even if there was a player Merchant O'Death, like there was that good of a player, which there isn't because they're women. 1.00

00:07:30.000 You mean a player that can dunk?

00:07:31.000 The Merchant of Death in the WNBA score is 12 points.

00:07:34.000 In a whopping landslide.

00:07:37.000 She's the Merchant of Death. 1.00

00:07:39.000 She can beat a varsity player.

00:07:42.000 Varsity boys, varsity boys.

00:07:45.000 Deal with all these death myths.

00:07:46.000 Death.

00:07:47.000 Myths.

00:07:48.000 Nailed it.

00:07:48.000 Death.

00:07:49.000 We'll call it manslaughter.

00:07:50.000 All right.

00:07:51.000 Number two, Captain Morgan.

00:07:52.000 How are you?

00:07:53.000 Oh, and if at any point today during the show, which I guarantee you, you will see this.

00:07:58.000 That's the YouTube dump, I'm heading over to Rumble because we don't want to be on YouTube anyway.

00:08:01.000 Captain Morgan, how are you, sir?

00:08:03.000 Doing well, how are you?

00:08:05.000 Insert chair.

00:08:05.000 Irritated.

00:08:06.000 I'll answer for you.

00:08:09.000 When you hear us, you know him, you love him.

00:08:11.000 Friday, March 1st, he's going to be in Des Moines, Iowa.

00:08:14.000 Oh boy.

00:08:14.000 Yeah, Des Moines!

00:08:16.000 Oh boy.

00:08:17.000 One of the quad cities, the lesser quad, Josh Feierstein.

00:08:20.000 Thank you for your service.

00:08:21.000 How are you?

00:08:21.000 Corn town, we're coming.

00:08:24.000 That's what I call Des Moines, I call it Corn Town. 0.83

00:08:26.000 Well, you know in Indiana they have, it says, it's like, Indiana, we're more than just corn.

00:08:30.000 Welcome to Indiana, it's corn.

00:08:30.000 Yeah, they're not.

00:08:33.000 We're more than just, show them the corn!

00:08:35.000 And the sign's in a corn field.

00:08:37.000 Yes.

00:08:37.000 Dang it Jerry, they only want to see the corn, that's why they came here.

00:08:40.000 Come on! 0.61

00:08:41.000 Dance with the one you brought!

00:08:42.000 Yeah, we're the Huskers.

00:08:43.000 You brought corn!

00:08:44.000 It's a different state now, but Iowa's cool, we'll see you there.

00:08:47.000 Yeah, Iowa's, Iowa's.

00:08:49.000 So.

00:08:51.000 No, good people in Iowa.

00:08:53.000 Great wrestlers.

00:08:54.000 I did not enjoy my time in Bettendorf.

00:08:56.000 Brock Purdy's from Iowa.

00:08:57.000 I don't know who that is.

00:08:58.000 Brock Purdy, the quarterback of the San Francisco 49ers, playing in the Super Bowl next week, and I am not doing that.

00:09:04.000 He exchanged cow manure for people.

00:09:06.000 Poop.

00:09:08.000 Switched, yeah.

00:09:08.000 That's true.

00:09:09.000 So this is something we all want to watch, and by that I mean I was told to avoid this.

00:09:09.000 Alright.

00:09:13.000 We would watch it on air fresh.

00:09:14.000 So I have had to, as I've gone through the news, avoid like the plague.

00:09:19.000 Do we have it up and working?

00:09:20.000 Yes.

00:09:21.000 Okay, good.

00:09:21.000 We had a little mishap with our tricaster thing.

00:09:23.000 Just the overlay thing.

00:09:24.000 So, Nikki Haley was on SNL, okay?

00:09:29.000 And she made a cameo, I guess, that was so bad that everyone's talking.

00:09:35.000 And I was specifically asked, again, like we said, not to watch.

00:09:37.000 Have you seen it?

00:09:38.000 I did see it.

00:09:40.000 It's like he shakes his Christmas presents before the morning.

00:09:40.000 I wasn't asked not to watch it.

00:09:43.000 No, I saw it!

00:09:45.000 I saw this more organically.

00:09:47.000 I did that one when I was a kid.

00:09:48.000 I shook it and I was like, it's a power pen.

00:09:50.000 It was a comedy, it was one of those things in comedy where everyone's on the phone, hey man, you gotta see this great comedy performance by a presidential candidate.

00:09:56.000 What the hell's her name again? 0.62

00:10:01.000 By a presidential candidate.

00:10:02.000 Yeah, that's why all my friends talk to me like that.

00:10:05.000 You have to see this joke from President Pro Temporum of the Senate.

00:10:10.000 All right, so this is Nikki Haley, potential future president of the United States on SNL.

00:10:16.000 I told them that if they would do this, that South Carolina would wrap their arms around them and take care of them.

00:10:23.000 I now officially work for you.

00:10:25.000 There is nothing that you could need that we won't make sure that we deliver.

00:10:29.000 Sorry, right clip.

00:10:30.000 Here's the SNL clip.

00:10:33.000 I was just curious, what would you say was the main cause of the Civil War?

00:10:37.000 And do you think it starts with an S and ends with a lavery?

00:10:40.000 Yep, I probably should have said that the first time.

00:10:45.000 And live from New York, it's Saturday night!

00:10:49.000 God.

00:10:51.000 I didn't think moms could ruin SNL even more. 0.98

00:10:55.000 Geez.

00:10:56.000 Why would you invite her on?

00:10:57.000 What do you mean, why would you invite her on?

00:10:59.000 They want to have her on because they want to give her a boost, you know?

00:11:02.000 It was great for SNL.

00:11:03.000 That's not going to work.

00:11:05.000 Yeah.

00:11:06.000 I don't know if you watched the whole thing, obviously.

00:11:06.000 Oh, God.

00:11:07.000 No, I didn't.

00:11:08.000 I thought I was going to see the whole thing now.

00:11:09.000 I didn't know people still watch SNL.

00:11:11.000 We just saw a shortened version.

00:11:13.000 It's a longer clip, but they had someone doing Trump.

00:11:16.000 So someone's doing Trump and she's like responding.

00:11:16.000 Oh no.

00:11:17.000 We have a good guy who does Trump.

00:11:18.000 Yeah, he's alright.

00:11:19.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:11:19.000 And she's responding to that guy, like basically just talking shit to Trump. 1.00

00:11:25.000 Like the kind of thing she wouldn't do in person? 1.00

00:11:25.000 It was like, whoa. 1.00

00:11:27.000 Yeah, the kind of thing she wouldn't do in person and two, that people don't usually do in primary races. 0.99

00:11:27.000 Right, yeah. 0.99

00:11:32.000 Right, yeah.

00:11:33.000 When she gets in front of Trump, if she ever does in a debate, she'll freeze like a musical Chinese chair. 0.80

00:11:37.000 Like she did with Vivek.

00:11:38.000 She did the same thing with Vivek.

00:11:39.000 That's my whole point.

00:11:40.000 She will never get the opportunity to do it to Trump because she's not a serious candidate.

00:11:43.000 That's a good point.

00:11:44.000 She said that on SNL too.

00:11:45.000 She said, if you're not afraid of anything, why won't you debate me?

00:11:49.000 That's what she said to Trump on SNL.

00:11:53.000 Thanks, SNL. 1.00

00:11:54.000 What'd that bitch say? 1.00

00:11:54.000 What? 1.00

00:11:55.000 I don't know.

00:11:56.000 I'm busy winning.

00:11:57.000 I thought you said you didn't watch it.

00:12:00.000 That's probably pretty much what he did.

00:12:02.000 They did an alright job with Trump.

00:12:03.000 Hey, I don't know if you know, speaking of winning, we are actually giving away a truck at CrowderShop.com.

00:12:09.000 It ends February 29th.

00:12:10.000 You can also win $10,000 in cash.

00:12:12.000 What is it?

00:12:13.000 Every dollar is one entry.

00:12:14.000 You get one entry right now, it ends at the end of this month.

00:12:17.000 It's a leap year, I didn't realize that.

00:12:18.000 And many of you thought this was fake.

00:12:19.000 No, we've been giving away stuff.

00:12:21.000 Yeah.

00:12:21.000 So there you go.

00:12:22.000 Go now!

00:12:23.000 Go to CrowderShop.

00:12:24.000 Let's move on to Tucker Carlson.

00:12:27.000 Well, this week.

00:12:28.000 How dare he?

00:12:28.000 Yeah, let's set this up here.

00:12:30.000 A lot of people just want to... There's recycling of outrage!

00:12:34.000 So I saw this.

00:12:35.000 I saw this this weekend.

00:12:37.000 I was going, alright, so what's happening is he's in Russia, so people are speculating he may interview Vladimir Putin.

00:12:42.000 I'm going, yeah, but he said that!

00:12:44.000 Like, people were outraged a long time ago when he said it on his Fox News show.

00:12:47.000 Years ago.

00:12:48.000 It's like January 6th when they recycle it and then they, it's like, well, hold on a second, you already said this.

00:12:52.000 It's just, but it's, it doesn't matter now.

00:12:54.000 It doesn't matter, even if it's true, it doesn't matter at this point.

00:12:57.000 They need to be outraged again.

00:13:00.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:13:01.000 We have plenty of things to be outraged about today.

00:13:01.000 Yeah.

00:13:03.000 We don't have to recycle stuff.

00:13:04.000 I don't really feel like we get outraged.

00:13:06.000 You get irritated with people selling you out, you know, the American people, but we try and be productive and offer actual solutions, but the left is outraged.

00:13:13.000 How could he interview Putin?

00:13:14.000 Yell at the TV.

00:13:15.000 Post on X. Yeah.

00:13:16.000 That'll get him.

00:13:17.000 Yes.

00:13:18.000 That'll prove your point.

00:13:19.000 Sounds like they don't want him to find something out.

00:13:22.000 It sounds like they don't want anybody to do anything they don't like at this point.

00:13:25.000 So this weekend, Tucker Carlson was spotted in Moscow.

00:13:30.000 Oh no!

00:13:36.000 Oh, he's at a dinner table. 1.00

00:13:38.000 So then, of course, the outrage from Bill Crystal, who's, I mean, he's the closest thing, like, if you were to take a flaccid penis and turn it into a man. 1.00

00:13:46.000 That's right! 1.00

00:13:47.000 Fairy godmother, like, you're a pumpkin and you're a flaccid penis? 1.00

00:13:50.000 It would be Bill Crystal. 1.00

00:13:52.000 You get an erect penis, you get Billy Crystal. 0.98

00:14:01.000 So, Bill Kristol, he says, perhaps we need a total and complete shutdown of Tucker Carlson re-entering the United States until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on! 0.99

00:14:10.000 Figure it out!

00:14:11.000 Turn the code to orange! 0.95

00:14:13.000 And then Adam Kinzinger, he's a traitor! 0.83

00:14:16.000 Always funny coming from an actual traitor. 0.97

00:14:18.000 Yes, look in the mirror, sir.

00:14:19.000 Yes!

00:14:20.000 So this is, again, like, let me just show you this clip.

00:14:22.000 This is 2021, and you can comment below, is it, is it me?

00:14:26.000 Maybe it's because I'm plugged in and so I'm familiar with these stories.

00:14:29.000 I didn't give this any more attention this weekend until I saw it trending.

00:14:32.000 I'm going, well, yeah, I mean, he's just in Russia, but he said he would interview Putin.

00:14:36.000 Do you guys not remember that?

00:14:38.000 Like, this is not new.

00:14:39.000 So 2021, here he is where he was talking on a show and a topic about how the NSA had spied on him, which almost should be more.

00:14:44.000 That's bigger.

00:14:45.000 That's a bigger, more of the outrage.

00:14:47.000 And said, yeah, I want to interview Putin.

00:14:49.000 I wasn't embarrassed about trying to interview Putin.

00:14:51.000 He's obviously newsworthy.

00:14:53.000 I'm an American citizen.

00:14:54.000 I can interview anyone I want and I plan to.

00:14:58.000 But still, in this case, I decided to keep it quiet.

00:15:00.000 I figured that any kind of publicity would rattle the Russians and make the interview less likely to happen.

00:15:05.000 But the Biden administration found out anyway by reading my emails.

00:15:10.000 I learned from a whistleblower the NSA planned to leak the contents of those emails to media outlets.

00:15:15.000 Why would they do that?

00:15:17.000 Well, the point, of course, was to paint me as a disloyal American, a Russian operative, been called that before, a stooge of the Kremlin, a traitor doing the bidding of a foreign adversary.

00:15:27.000 And by the way, he also discussed this with a Swiss publication last year, which is, you know, it's Swiss, so it's inconsequential, so you may have missed this.

00:15:34.000 He said, I tried to interview Vladimir Putin and the U.S.

00:15:36.000 government stopped me.

00:15:38.000 So think about that for a minute.

00:15:40.000 And by the way, nobody defended me.

00:15:41.000 We did.

00:15:41.000 Hold on a second.

00:15:42.000 We did, just to be clear.

00:15:44.000 Now, before we move on, first off, we do have some exclusive footage, by the way, that is

00:15:48.000 new that is of Carlson out of Russia.

00:16:03.000 The man can't athletically dance, but he's gonna beat 18 stuntmen.

00:16:09.000 He was my action movie hero until I knew better.

00:16:14.000 Was that Anastasia on ice?

00:16:16.000 He's just swatting mosquitoes off.

00:16:20.000 What kind of Macarena was that?

00:16:24.000 I love this city.

00:16:25.000 So bad!

00:16:26.000 But here he is, I guess the Russians actually seem pretty happy to have Tucker Carlson there 0.61

00:16:32.000 in Moscow.

00:16:33.000 My name is Alexey.

00:16:35.000 I like you.

00:16:36.000 Thank you.

00:16:37.000 You are the best American journalist.

00:16:40.000 Thank you.

00:16:41.000 Thank you.

00:16:42.000 Where are you from?

00:16:43.000 I'm from Moscow.

00:16:44.000 I love this city.

00:16:45.000 It's beautiful.

00:16:46.000 Thank you.

00:16:51.000 It's really, yes, yes.

00:16:53.000 What do you do in Russia?

00:16:55.000 I just wanted to see.

00:16:56.000 So I wanted to talk to people and look around and see how it was doing.

00:16:59.000 I think it's doing very well.

00:17:00.000 I wanted to talk to people and look around and see how it was doing. It's doing very well. I think maybe interview

00:17:12.000 Putin? We'll see.

00:17:15.000 and outraged The most offensive part of that clip is that he's dressed like a lesbian at an Animal House quote-a-long. 0.74

00:17:24.000 I'm not getting into his fraternity. 0.55

00:17:25.000 No, absolutely not.

00:17:28.000 Let's think about this for a second.

00:17:30.000 Okay.

00:17:30.000 He said he wanted to inter-repudent.

00:17:31.000 Can you find the clip where he says that, hey, not only do I support Vladimir Putin as a dictator, but I also support all of his individual actions?

00:17:38.000 In other words, you could... Right, exactly.

00:17:39.000 Let's say you don't interview a dictator.

00:17:41.000 All right?

00:17:41.000 That's one level.

00:17:43.000 You do interview a dictator, but you completely disagree with this person, and you think that their impact on the world is fascinating.

00:17:48.000 Let's go a step further.

00:17:49.000 You interview the dictator and you think that they maybe have some redeeming qualities, which is how they've ascended to the position of being a pseudo-dictator, oligarch, if you want to use that term, while disagreeing with some extreme actions that they've taken.

00:17:59.000 Okay, now we're at level three.

00:18:01.000 They want you to believe that he's at level four, where he's interviewing Putin because he loves everything that he's done and he supports totalitarianism.

00:18:06.000 How did we get there?

00:18:08.000 And hey, if we're talking about totalitarianism, how about the government spying on him?

00:18:12.000 And them targeting him, making the U.S.

00:18:14.000 President coming in and making sure that he cannot interview a foreign head of state.

00:18:18.000 A U.S. 0.66

00:18:18.000 Exactly. 0.66

00:18:19.000 journalist that this is a newsworthy individual, whether you like him or not.

00:18:22.000 Hitler would have been a newsworthy individual. 0.93

00:18:24.000 Yeah, that's right.

00:18:24.000 Time named him Person of the Year, I believe.

00:18:26.000 So apparently that kind of stuff is OK.

00:18:28.000 But him going over there and talking to him, oh, it's because it's not Zelensky.

00:18:32.000 They only want people talking to Zelensky so they can justify funding.

00:18:35.000 They can get Zelensky when he's at his new million-dollar mansion in Florida.

00:18:37.000 Well, no, it's hard to catch him there because he has to take the private jet back over to, I think, somewhere on the south side, you know, the Mediterranean, France, something like that.

00:18:43.000 Yeah. 0.99

00:18:44.000 Well, he has to get there to practice chopsticks with his penis. 1.00

00:18:47.000 No, he's got that down. 1.00

00:18:49.000 Yes, he does.

00:18:50.000 Him and Bill Kristol just does it with his head.

00:18:54.000 By the way, I've already released an image of the interview with Putin for the... teasing, I guess you should say, the possible interview.

00:19:00.000 Yeah, teasing.

00:19:01.000 I love how we had to photoshop Tucker, but we immediately had a usable picture of Vladimir

00:19:14.000 Putin.

00:19:15.000 It's like, oh wow, it's a state issued picture.

00:19:17.000 Huh.

00:19:18.000 He had just ridden a bear up to the stream, actually.

00:19:20.000 There's probably like 14 images they had to go through.

00:19:24.000 Which one do you want?

00:19:25.000 Dude, he loves taking photos of himself.

00:19:28.000 Yeah, he's the oligarch influencer. 0.99

00:19:32.000 Look at this, I put my back leg front in turn around so you can see ass. 1.00

00:19:37.000 He's got a couple abs showing too, a little bit.

00:19:41.000 If you give it the right angle, you might catch a little whoop.

00:19:43.000 That's right.

00:19:45.000 Look, it's not all oligarchs who have a dump truck.

00:19:51.000 The oligarch with the most.

00:19:52.000 That's it.

00:19:53.000 My old man floppy milkshake bring all the dissidents to prison.

00:19:59.000 So, it's a reference to Midot's R&B song. 0.99

00:20:07.000 I hate you.

00:20:08.000 So let's go through the standard though. 0.97

00:20:10.000 Again, I don't agree.

00:20:11.000 I've had so many people, I would not want to be blamed for the people who I've had on my show with whom I vehemently disagree.

00:20:17.000 I mean, there have been countless, from transgender mayors of small towns to actual senators that I don't even like. 0.99

00:20:17.000 Right. 0.99

00:20:25.000 Or we have congressmen, senators, mayors, we've had personalities, we've had show hosts, there are plenty of people who I interview who I don't agree with.

00:20:31.000 I understand that there's a certain point where if you're platforming someone's actual ideas and you don't challenge them.

00:20:37.000 So I would say this, there would be some discussion warranted.

00:20:40.000 If Tucker Carlson were to have sit down with Vladimir Putin and it was just a fawning puff piece like the mainstream media does with former Vice President Joe Biden, I would say, OK, well, you haven't really held him to account.

00:20:51.000 And I also understand how that's difficult to do because they control the press there.

00:20:54.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:20:55.000 There are many levels that we would have to go through for this to even prove remotely a problem.

00:20:59.000 Yeah.

00:21:00.000 And look, there are people that shill all the time, like Jackson Hinkle shills for China. 0.81

00:21:04.000 There's people that shill for North Korea to make them seem like... Nikki Haley for China. 0.97

00:21:09.000 A lot of those people do that, but has Tucker Carlson ever really been a shill for anybody?

00:21:13.000 He has some opinions maybe that you don't like.

00:21:15.000 He praises some countries for some of the policies that they have on the border that maybe you don't like.

00:21:19.000 I think most of them are fine, by the way, but he doesn't come across to me as a shill for anybody.

00:21:24.000 He's just going to be like, oh, Vladimir Putin, everything's great in Russia.

00:21:27.000 Right.

00:21:27.000 It's fantastic.

00:21:28.000 It seems like he's going to go over there and ask some maybe difficult questions, but it's probably not going to push too much.

00:21:33.000 He's in Russia.

00:21:33.000 He doesn't want to end up in prison for a vape pen.

00:21:36.000 You kind of lose your leverage when you're in the country of a national dictator.

00:21:38.000 It's true.

00:21:38.000 You need to let them come to a neutral country.

00:21:40.000 That's like the Swiss publication.

00:21:43.000 Yeah.

00:21:43.000 So let's go through this again, the applying the double standard, because interviews with actual dictators, not that, Putin is a dictator, right?

00:21:50.000 And I understand he has proxies and he, okay, and then he kind of stepped back and we had, we had someone who was another president for a period of time, and that was cute.

00:21:59.000 Actual dictators where you're talking about completely unfettered and people who are actually enemies to the United States.

00:22:03.000 This has happened a lot and all references are available at LatterEarthCreditor.com.

00:22:07.000 So the Ayatollah Khomeini was interviewed in 1979 by Mike Wallace.

00:22:11.000 Hey, remember Castro?

00:22:12.000 Yeah, that guy?

00:22:13.000 Remember Fidel Castro? 0.95

00:22:15.000 Yeah, remember socialist, communist, revolutionary, followed in the footsteps of Che Guevara who killed black people and gays and executed them without trial. 0.85

00:22:21.000 trial and destroyed a beautiful island 90 miles south of Florida and bragged

00:22:25.000 about it in front of the UN so that you could put it on a rage against the

00:22:28.000 machine t-shirt while the lead singer supports Barack Obama.

00:22:34.000 So Castro was interviewed in 1959 CBS face the nation

00:22:41.000 1977, Barbara Walters on ABC.

00:22:43.000 1993, by Diane Sawyer.

00:22:45.000 You know who else was interviewed?

00:22:46.000 By John Miller of ABC in 1998.

00:22:49.000 Talk about platforming.

00:22:50.000 Osama Bin Laden?

00:22:51.000 That one's kind of a biggie.

00:22:53.000 I know what you'll say.

00:22:53.000 Hey, hold on a second.

00:22:54.000 We weren't officially at war with Osama Bin Laden in 1998.

00:22:57.000 Well, we're not at war with Russia either.

00:23:00.000 Just to be clear.

00:23:02.000 I'd like all involvement to be gone, but yeah, we're not involved.

00:23:05.000 Wasn't he on the most wanted list, I think?

00:23:06.000 I believe he was on the most wanted list because at that point... Either that or he's climbing the charts.

00:23:09.000 He's either there or he's number one.

00:23:11.000 Most wanted for interviews, huh?

00:23:14.000 Someone got a nice scoop.

00:23:17.000 Mamar Gaddafi or Brown Jeffrey Ross, if you see a picture.

00:23:22.000 Can you guys bring up side-by-side Gaddafi, Jeffrey Ross?

00:23:26.000 Oh my gosh.

00:23:27.000 You mean when he traveled here to New York, he stayed in a tent?

00:23:30.000 He rented a house to stay in a tent?

00:23:32.000 And by the way, that was in 2009 by Larry King.

00:23:34.000 Yeah.

00:23:35.000 Why didn't no one ever come down on Larry King?

00:23:37.000 Not only did he interview Gaddafi, he was ill-prepared.

00:23:39.000 He's like, So Gaddafi, French?

00:23:42.000 Why do you look white?

00:23:44.000 Yes.

00:23:45.000 You look like a friend I had, Jeffrey Ross.

00:23:47.000 Part of him.

00:23:48.000 Natural curls.

00:23:49.000 He's the Roastmaster General.

00:23:50.000 Roastmaster.

00:23:51.000 Gets a little bit edgy, but I find him funny.

00:23:55.000 He said, Joe, like me, what do you eat for breakfast?

00:23:59.000 What?

00:24:02.000 Then you have Bashar al-Assad.

00:24:05.000 Let's just say al-Assad. 0.64

00:24:06.000 No one's on a first name basis.

00:24:08.000 Bill Neely in 2016, NBC, just to be clear.

00:24:12.000 And then there was this gem of an interview also with al-Assad.

00:24:17.000 I guess if you're going to, comment below, who's the most useless journalist who you can think of in the last 20 years or 30 years?

00:24:24.000 Would it be Barbara Walters? 0.97

00:24:26.000 Would it be the lady who turned journalism into inconsequential bullshit with the, if you could be a tree, what kind of tree would you be? 1.00

00:24:32.000 Barbara Walters, who can't even speak the language without a speech impediment? 1.00

00:24:36.000 Or would it be, wheel him out because he doesn't even know where he is and he should have retired a long time ago, but he's clinging to his power, Larry King.

00:24:44.000 I don't know which one, but this was the standard of journalism.

00:24:46.000 I'm sorry.

00:24:47.000 These were the carryovers from the golden era.

00:24:50.000 And I've been asking this.

00:24:51.000 If there was a golden age of journalism, please tell me when.

00:24:54.000 I don't buy it.

00:24:55.000 I just think you didn't know about it.

00:24:56.000 Here's the gem with Barbara Walters and Al Assad in 2012, I believe. 0.97

00:25:01.000 We were free to ask any questions.

00:25:04.000 Bashar al-Assad is a dictator by accident, a mild-mannered ophthalmologist.

00:25:09.000 He studied medicine in England and found himself thrust into the role of being Syria's leader after the deaths of his dictator father and older brother.

00:25:18.000 He insisted to me that he has the support of much of his country, but not many others believe that.

00:25:27.000 Barbara, can I do you a favor, sweetheart?

00:25:28.000 Let me correct something real quick.

00:25:30.000 I know that's patronizing.

00:25:31.000 I meant to be...

00:25:33.000 He's not a dictator by accident.

00:25:34.000 He's the leader of the country by accident.

00:25:36.000 The dictator part was a choice.

00:25:38.000 He could have gone in and been the leader of the country by accident.

00:25:41.000 People got killed before him.

00:25:42.000 Now he's thrust into a position of power.

00:25:44.000 He could have chosen to not be a dictator.

00:25:47.000 Yeah.

00:25:48.000 You just answered, I mean, it doesn't really require Columbo.

00:25:51.000 You're like, his father was also a dictator.

00:25:55.000 And his brother was murdered too.

00:25:57.000 Yes.

00:25:57.000 Everyone died.

00:25:59.000 I don't believe everything he said. 0.99

00:26:01.000 I don't know why he's sounding more, she's sounding more, more retarded. 1.00

00:26:04.000 I did not believe everything Alistair says, but I got the interview, so these are good light up shoes.

00:26:09.000 I'm Boba Fett.

00:26:12.000 Typically, speaking the language appropriately is a prerequisite to speaking professionally.

00:26:18.000 Which one?

00:26:19.000 That is unbelievable.

00:26:20.000 By the way, is this, in the 2016 interview, I'm just trying to remember, was that before or after he had crossed the red line by using chemical weapons on his own people?

00:26:28.000 And you still interviewed him.

00:26:29.000 So that's okay.

00:26:30.000 Somebody who uses chemical weapons on their own people.

00:26:32.000 And the president said that's a red line for us.

00:26:34.000 And if you do that, oh boy, didn't do anything by the way.

00:26:36.000 I mean, that's another story.

00:26:37.000 They still went and interviewed this person.

00:26:38.000 That's totally fine.

00:26:39.000 Well, he says he never did that.

00:26:43.000 It was an accident.

00:26:45.000 He swore on a Bible.

00:26:47.000 Looking back, what'd you say?

00:26:50.000 May have been a crime.

00:26:51.000 I wrote it down.

00:26:52.000 Yes.

00:26:55.000 Right before I was hunting rabbit.

00:26:56.000 We do have the side-by-side that you requested.

00:26:59.000 Oh, Geoffrey Ross.

00:27:00.000 Omar Gaddafi and Geoffrey Ross.

00:27:02.000 There it is.

00:27:03.000 You got him in the Rosemaster outfit too.

00:27:05.000 I don't know, maybe I should go in here and roast Rand.

00:27:09.000 That's awesome.

00:27:09.000 Perfect.

00:27:13.000 If I were to interview Putin, I also understand it may be useless because you can't actually ask the questions.

00:27:19.000 Especially on his own turf.

00:27:20.000 But you know what?

00:27:20.000 Putin may provide some perspective.

00:27:22.000 Hey, you might want to ask him about his plans with Ukraine, if he plans on crossing over into actual NATO nations.

00:27:27.000 You might want to ask him his thoughts on the United States, on his problems with the United States, on what he actually sees as a vision for Russia and what would actually allow us to Here's the thing, there can be horrible countries on the face of the earth, and you don't have to go to war with them.

00:27:39.000 I don't know, do you hear that?

00:27:40.000 That's the sound of slavery still going on across the African continent and Asia right now.

00:27:45.000 We're not at war with all of them, just to be clear.

00:27:48.000 So, you can maybe ask these questions and find something.

00:27:51.000 You can live on a planet with horrible nations and not be at war with them.

00:27:57.000 Yeah.

00:27:58.000 Yeah, but if we interview him, then how are we supposed to make up things that he thinks?

00:28:01.000 Exactly.

00:28:01.000 That's a good point.

00:28:02.000 How are we supposed to make up reasons to fight him?

00:28:03.000 Right.

00:28:04.000 Yes.

00:28:04.000 That's exactly what I was going to say.

00:28:05.000 Right now, what you've seen is a complete silencing of one side.

00:28:09.000 And look, I don't agree with that side.

00:28:10.000 I understand that.

00:28:11.000 I think most of what he's going to say is going to be propaganda.

00:28:13.000 I get that.

00:28:14.000 But the only way to ensure that you're getting propaganda is to only listen to one side.

00:28:18.000 Especially in this case, when you've got Zelensky going and making the rounds to literally every country that he can whore himself out to, and then not listening to anything coming from Russia. 0.73

00:28:18.000 Right. 0.73

00:28:27.000 At best, maybe all it does is make you a little bit firmer in your convictions.

00:28:33.000 And by the way, this would all exist in a vacuum if it weren't for the fact that the bipartisan It provides another $60 billion to Ukraine.

00:28:40.000 So again, if you're talking about a country whose heads of state, where you have former Vice President Biden and his son, right, you're talking about illegal dealings with Ukraine, not only Ukraine, but let's just talk about Ukraine right here, when you're talking about Burisma, you're talking about him sitting on an energy company's board despite having no experience, Hunter Biden, and kicking back to the big guy, and now providing, what's the total number up to if you look at what's pledged?

00:28:59.000 Well over $100 billion if this bill were to be passed to Ukraine, while silencing the opposition.

00:29:06.000 Forty million?

00:29:06.000 What was that?

00:29:07.000 Oh, no, that was the money that was stolen by the five guys that were leading... Oh, yeah, that's right.

00:29:11.000 Oh, sorry, that was the wrong number.

00:29:12.000 Yeah, it's tough.

00:29:13.000 It's tough to keep track.

00:29:14.000 Well, it's like weapons, Mercedes, weapons, Mercedes.

00:29:17.000 I know, you know, it's like, how do you figure that out?

00:29:19.000 What if you need a new Yamaha piano with shallower keys?

00:29:22.000 It's like, just go with Honda, baby!

00:29:23.000 It's cheaper!

00:29:27.000 So this is where... There's a lot of good that can come of this.

00:29:29.000 They want to silence...

00:29:31.000 That really does worry me.

00:29:32.000 You can't interview Putin and we're pledging hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine.

00:29:36.000 That should worry everybody at this point.

00:29:39.000 Either you need to be neutral or you need to be out in the open.

00:29:42.000 And this government should have no say in what any members of the press Or let's also say podcasters now at this point.

00:29:49.000 You look at what Jen Psaki was doing with Joe Rogan. 0.82

00:29:51.000 That's the concern.

00:29:52.000 The concern is reaching a point where only one side is able to speak, which we have seen in the past, by the way.

00:29:57.000 Also, Rumble got in trouble for allowing Russia Today to be on their platform.

00:30:01.000 Was that the French government?

00:30:02.000 They've been in trouble with so many governments.

00:30:05.000 I think it was the French government who actually, someone can bring this up, they banned them from operating or from people reaching Rumble, I believe, in France over Russia Today.

00:30:14.000 By the way, we know CEO...

00:30:16.000 Not pro-Putin, just to be clear.

00:30:18.000 He's pro-free speech.

00:30:18.000 No, absolutely.

00:30:19.000 He's pro the stuff that Putin is not pro, in fact.

00:30:23.000 So anybody who tries to silence him, including Brazil, they just pull out of Brazil.

00:30:23.000 Right.

00:30:26.000 I'm also hearing right now that actually Tucker is interviewing Putin in Russia.

00:30:29.000 We have a clip.

00:30:29.000 Really?

00:30:30.000 Okay.

00:30:31.000 It's rabbit season!

00:30:32.000 don't you put it in. It's a rabbit season. Stop making me laugh. By the way, you know what's?

00:30:46.000 That guy, he's such a piece of... He holds the carrot like it's ceremonial.

00:30:51.000 Like it's a sword! 0.99

00:30:53.000 I could kill you five times with this carrot, but I chose not to. 0.99

00:30:56.000 I thought he was holding it like something else, but yeah, go ahead, sword. 0.98

00:30:59.000 He also claims he's never gotten plugs or dyed his hair.

00:31:02.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:31:04.000 Roughly 170.

00:31:04.000 Wow.

00:31:05.000 Is that including the 60 billion from the border?

00:31:07.000 Including the 60 billion, it's 170 roughly that's pledged.

00:31:10.000 Which of course has not been pledged.

00:31:12.000 I'm just saying, if they would have their way.

00:31:13.000 It's happening at this exact same time.

00:31:15.000 It's insane.

00:31:16.000 Is it a conspiracy?

00:31:17.000 Do you honestly believe that this government has a vested interest in this perpetual war?

00:31:22.000 They're not making some phone, just making a few phone calls to stir up outrage regarding Tucker Carlson interviewing Putin?

00:31:29.000 Exactly.

00:31:31.000 Is that a conspiracy?

00:31:31.000 Genuinely, comment below.

00:31:32.000 Do you think that's an actual conspiracy at this point?

00:31:33.000 When Jen Psaki says Joe Rogan and Spotify, we really hope that Spotify, as she said, does their due diligence and doesn't allow misinformation to spread.

00:31:41.000 Do you really think that that's a conspiracy at this point?

00:31:44.000 And I have, there would be no love lost for Putin, just to be clear.

00:31:48.000 I just don't know at what point people say it's a conspiracy or you're being paranoid.

00:31:48.000 Yeah.

00:31:51.000 We see it happening.

00:31:53.000 No, it's an actual censorship.

00:31:53.000 Yeah.

00:31:54.000 Yes.

00:31:55.000 It's an attempt at censorship.

00:31:56.000 Yes.

00:31:56.000 It's not a conspiracy.

00:31:57.000 I did not like, fine, you did not like it.

00:31:59.000 Fine, you don't want to hear from a dictator, I get it.

00:32:01.000 But for somebody like Adam Kinzinger, put aside the fact that I think Adam Kinzinger is one of the worst representatives that we have ever had.

00:32:08.000 He had the footage of January 6th and said they were terrorists.

00:32:11.000 No, what he did is he lended credibility to a committee that has put people in jail and caused people to commit suicide because they've gone after them with terrorist charges instead of just trespassing charges.

00:32:20.000 That's you, Adam Kinzinger, just so you know.

00:32:22.000 Blood's on your hands, my friend. 0.98

00:32:23.000 But he comes out to say he's a traitor.

00:32:27.000 You can not like it all you want, but is he aiding our enemy?

00:32:31.000 We're not at war with those guys, so I'm not sure how you come up with the traitor thing, but you're very quick to jump on X and be like, haha, traitor, because he's doing an interview.

00:32:39.000 How does that make any sense, Adam?

00:32:41.000 Go away! 1.00

00:32:42.000 We thought when you said you weren't going to be in public life anymore, that meant we didn't have to hear from you anymore, and apparently that's not true!

00:32:50.000 Actually, Tim's telling me we have Adam Kintzner on the phone.

00:32:53.000 He's ready to answer Daryl's questions.

00:32:57.000 By the way, it's pronounced Twayto.

00:33:03.000 I'm from the school of Barbara Walters.

00:33:06.000 By the way, you can join Mug Club.

00:33:07.000 We'll be doing a whole segment today on the Woke Kindergarten Initiative, which is hilarious.

00:33:11.000 Hey, we have a little Petri dish.

00:33:13.000 It doesn't work.

00:33:14.000 And it's $89 annually.

00:33:16.000 You get the hand-etched, of course, hand-painted mug.

00:33:19.000 Or, you know, you can go Muglets for $9 right now, but you don't necessarily get, you're not a full member of the Mug Club, but we understand that times are tough.

00:33:25.000 We're sorry, the best economy ever.

00:33:26.000 Best economy.

00:33:27.000 According to the former vice president.

00:33:29.000 It is.

00:33:29.000 We're doing good.

00:33:30.000 I have enough money I can buy a new Waltho.

00:33:33.000 Waltho? 0.89

00:33:34.000 Oh, the Waltho Firewall.

00:33:35.000 What does she do with W? 0.90

00:33:36.000 Does she just replace it with something else like a Totho?

00:33:39.000 No idea what to do.

00:33:40.000 She freezes.

00:33:42.000 Can't say her own last name, Barbara.

00:33:44.000 I guess you had a 1 in 26 shot of getting it right.

00:33:49.000 Let's go through the Senate.

00:33:50.000 25.

00:33:50.000 C and K are the same.

00:33:54.000 Canadians say Zed. 1.00

00:33:54.000 That's dumb. 1.00

00:33:56.000 I know. 0.99

00:33:57.000 I was chastised.

00:33:58.000 Is that what you said?

00:33:59.000 What?

00:34:00.000 Is that what you said?

00:34:01.000 That's what I said.

00:34:02.000 I see what you did there.

00:34:03.000 Zed.

00:34:05.000 Which makes no sense!

00:34:06.000 What is that supposed to be?

00:34:07.000 Z. Oh.

00:34:08.000 Oh, that does make no sense.

00:34:10.000 Yeah, I know.

00:34:10.000 Okay.

00:34:11.000 And I was sent to the office because I said, no, that's wrong, teacher.

00:34:14.000 And I went through A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z. You're retarded. 1.00

00:34:20.000 It makes no sense. 1.00

00:34:21.000 This is a stupid country. 1.00

00:34:25.000 And you spell color with a U. Color. 1.00

00:34:29.000 Yes.

00:34:30.000 I would have hated to be your teacher.

00:34:32.000 Let's go to the Senate border bill.

00:34:35.000 So this is something right now, let's just kind of clear this up where we are.

00:34:38.000 So the Senate unveiled, it's like this $111 billion... $118!

00:34:41.000 Sorry, $18 billion, sorry.

00:34:43.000 That's all going to the border. 0.99

00:34:44.000 Yes, the bipartisan, it's complete garbage. 0.97

00:34:47.000 So this is going to be voted on most likely this week, right? 0.98

00:34:49.000 We'll probably talk about the Senate, then of course it really is very unlikely to make it to the House.

00:34:53.000 Because you will see this outrage recycled and they don't necessarily inform you as to the actual legislative process.

00:34:59.000 I know that a lot of you know this, but I can't tell you how many times we get people sending in chat going, now that this border, this new border bill is law.

00:35:07.000 No, it's not.

00:35:08.000 It's very unlikely.

00:35:09.000 To be what you currently see in its final form.

00:35:13.000 And this is not new.

00:35:14.000 This is remedial.

00:35:15.000 I know some of you are new here.

00:35:17.000 We went through this with Barack Obama.

00:35:19.000 We were talking about dreamers, right?

00:35:20.000 And if there was something on my desk, I would sign it tomorrow.

00:35:23.000 When the left says bipartisan, when they all of a sudden say, hey, we need bipartisanship, what they mean is they need to get what they want.

00:35:30.000 And if you don't go along, then you're no longer compromising, that you are unreasonable.

00:35:34.000 They'll label you the party of no.

00:35:36.000 That's what this is.

00:35:37.000 Okay?

00:35:38.000 And by the way, Speaker Johnson, been impressed with him.

00:35:40.000 He said that the bill is DOA, if it makes it to the House.

00:35:42.000 So let's just show you really quickly, to give you some context here.

00:35:45.000 And then we'll give you some numbers on this bill.

00:35:47.000 But again, the theme is bipartisan.

00:35:49.000 It's bipartisan.

00:35:50.000 It's bipartisan.

00:35:51.000 This is great.

00:35:51.000 It's bipartisan.

00:35:52.000 So they can say, look, Republicans won't sign the bipartisan bill!

00:35:55.000 Extremists!

00:35:56.000 MAGA! 0.99

00:35:57.000 Basket of deplorables! 0.98

00:35:58.000 So stop with the idea of saying, I'm a compassionate conservative.

00:36:00.000 We talked about that last week.

00:36:01.000 Stop saying, I'm a moderate conservative.

00:36:04.000 Because if you don't go along with the bill that provides hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine, Israel, to wars that has nothing to do, by the way, with immigration, then you'll be labeled an extremist.

00:36:13.000 I think that that would literally encompass everyone from libertarians to MAGA Republicans.

00:36:20.000 Or extremists, as they call it.

00:36:22.000 Here's Schumer feasting on a child... no, sorry, discussing... Alright, good evening everybody.

00:36:29.000 So after four months of difficult After four years of difficult negotiations, I am really proud and pleased to announce that Democrats and Republicans in the Senate have come to an agreement on the bipartisan supplemental bill tonight.

00:36:54.000 This bill is vital to America's future interests.

00:36:57.000 We fix the border problem in this bill.

00:37:01.000 When have you ever heard Chuck Schumer say what a surprising number of conservatives have come up with is vital?

00:37:07.000 Never!

00:37:08.000 That's what I want you to pay attention to.

00:37:10.000 It's the sleight of hand.

00:37:11.000 When they call for bipartisanship, it means they want you to shut up.

00:37:15.000 And then when they're in power, of course, they're never bipartisan, just to be clear.

00:37:18.000 But for some reason, so many Republicans have allowed themselves to be labeled a party of no, and a big reason is because of people like the Mitch McConnells of the world, who are empty suits.

00:37:27.000 That's not fair.

00:37:30.000 That's not fair to say about my Uncle McConnell.

00:37:34.000 That's not fair!

00:37:36.000 I said he's a Kentucky man, and I'm a Kentucky man too.

00:37:39.000 A man learns to play baseball!

00:37:39.000 That's right!

00:37:41.000 You couldn't do any of that stuff in this cartoon.

00:37:43.000 Now if you don't learn to play, I'll say I'll say I'll put this young boy in a dress. 0.99

00:37:46.000 What? I'll make it hard man.

00:37:50.000 No.

00:37:51.000 By the way, this guy saying bipartisan is vital, let's just, for context, this is the kind of

00:37:56.000 stuff that you have heard Schumer say when he's not trying to act as though he's a reach across

00:38:00.000 the aisle prick. 0.52

00:38:01.000 Republicans and only Republicans are holding everything up because of unrealistic,

00:38:07.000 maximalist demands on the border.

00:38:09.000 And millions of American women are having their rights ripped away 1.00

00:38:14.000 by a MAGA hard right Supreme Court.

00:38:18.000 Days away, once again from a government shutdown, all at the hands of this endless MAGA madness.

00:38:26.000 Republicans played a dangerous and risky partisan game.

00:38:30.000 And I am glad that their brinksmanship did not work.

00:38:33.000 We even saw MAGA extremists bring all of Congress to a grinding halt.

00:38:39.000 For more than a month.

00:38:40.000 So just keep in mind, MAGA extremists, when you're talking about the Dobbs case, which allows states to regulate abortions.

00:38:46.000 So you can still have a 32-week abortion and do in places like California and places like Colorado. 1.00

00:38:52.000 That's so extreme that he calls you effectively a domestic terrorist.

00:38:56.000 So when he says bipartisan and vital, you know it must be really bad.

00:39:00.000 Yeah, and hit me the same guy who stood in front of the Supreme Court when it happened and said that they will reap the whirlwind.

00:39:05.000 Yes.

00:39:06.000 And basically threatened not only the justices, but anybody that agreed with the justices, which was the entire Republican Party.

00:39:11.000 Yep.

00:39:12.000 I think that's the same guy.

00:39:13.000 Also, speaking of guys we don't like, Mitch McConnell had this to say about the bill.

00:39:13.000 Yeah.

00:39:18.000 I am grateful to Senator Lankford for working tirelessly to ensure that supplemental national security legislation begins with a direct and immediate solution to the crisis at our southern border.

00:39:28.000 So hit the like button.

00:39:29.000 Every time you talk, you have to use that voice for him.

00:39:31.000 Hit the like button if you want to see McConnell in a nursing home. 0.96

00:39:35.000 Or in a cartoon.

00:39:35.000 Well, I don't think you could afford to put... I see, I see, I see.

00:39:39.000 You gotta have, you gotta come, you gotta come with, like, you have the neck fat.

00:39:42.000 What's it called?

00:39:43.000 A turkey neck.

00:39:43.000 A jowl?

00:39:44.000 A jowl, yeah.

00:39:45.000 Like you have a jowl.

00:39:47.000 We'll just, yes, we'll tell him it's a nursing home.

00:39:48.000 This is a hospice!

00:39:52.000 And he'll respond by going like this.

00:39:54.000 Yes, exactly.

00:39:55.000 For four minutes.

00:39:56.000 And all is well.

00:39:57.000 And notice the closer you get to the top...

00:39:59.000 More like they become.

00:40:01.000 There was an exception.

00:40:02.000 President Donald Trump.

00:40:03.000 Some people call him former president, some people call him sitting president.

00:40:06.000 I call him sitting president, okay?

00:40:07.000 So that's why they can't stand the guy, and there are other reasons to not be able to stand him, but if you look at the Grams and the McConnells and then the Bidens and then the Schumers of the world, you go, oh, okay, that's where you think the game is rigged. 0.81

00:40:20.000 I've traveled this country, thousands of people in every city, never once, never once met a Mitch McConnell fan.

00:40:27.000 That's how you know these people are effectively coronated.

00:40:29.000 They're not necessarily elected.

00:40:31.000 All right, so let's go through the claims with this bill.

00:40:31.000 Yeah.

00:40:33.000 All references are available at lightearthcreditor.com, link in the sidebar.

00:40:36.000 The claim is that this is a bipartisan bill, right?

00:40:41.000 So let's go through this really quickly.

00:40:42.000 The bill was drafted by Kirshen Cinema in Arizona, Chris Murphy, Jim Lankford.

00:40:49.000 Wait, wouldn't there be a lot more?

00:40:51.000 Not well.

00:40:52.000 Wouldn't there be a lot more?

00:40:53.000 No.

00:40:54.000 I thought, hold on a second, I thought we were talking about this was, oh you mean it's not drafted by the whole, no the Senate votes on it.

00:41:02.000 Oh wait, so it's bipartisan voted, but uniparty written?

00:41:06.000 Pretty much.

00:41:07.000 They say, like, toss an R on there, a Democrat, a Republican, an Independent.

00:41:10.000 That's where you can stack the deck.

00:41:12.000 It's like conducting a trial, a clinical trial, and you somehow alter the sample group, the control group, right?

00:41:18.000 This is why there are standards to certain trials and studies being admitted.

00:41:23.000 So, sure, I guess it's bipartisan.

00:41:27.000 That's not representative of the voting base, to be clear, and the Oklahoma GOP... Or even the House!

00:41:30.000 Or even the House!

00:41:31.000 They censured Lankford for support of this bill.

00:41:34.000 And this is what you see Democrats do.

00:41:34.000 Yeah.

00:41:36.000 They create a problem, they draft bipartisanship legislation, they get a handful of rhinos to sign on, and then they shame actual conservatives, other Republicans, for not passing the bill. 0.53

00:41:43.000 So they're going to be saying bipartisan until, of course, this thing gets stonewalled for valid reasons, which we'll get to, and then say, look at the extremists.

00:41:50.000 So we'll get to the details, but just remember that.

00:41:53.000 I'm calling it Right now.

00:41:55.000 Bipartisan, bipartisan, bipartisan.

00:41:56.000 Except for the extremists!

00:41:58.000 You're talking about you can count on one hand.

00:42:00.000 You could count on one flipper hand if you were like the twin who didn't get the placenta.

00:42:04.000 The amount of people.

00:42:06.000 Who's that one rep from Oklahoma?

00:42:08.000 What was his name?

00:42:09.000 Langford?

00:42:09.000 Langford.

00:42:10.000 He's sitting there like, I'm one of the good ones.

00:42:10.000 Yeah.

00:42:15.000 I listen to him talk about it.

00:42:16.000 He genuinely thinks that this is a good idea.

00:42:18.000 Yeah, I know.

00:42:19.000 I'm like, ugh, this is terrible.

00:42:21.000 Well, it's because he can't read.

00:42:23.000 Well, come on.

00:42:23.000 We don't want to be literacists.

00:42:27.000 It's true.

00:42:28.000 Here's another example that we talked about.

00:42:29.000 Let me just show you so you can believe your lion eyes and ears.

00:42:31.000 Here's Barack Obama in 2013 blaming the government shutdown on a handful of extremists.

00:42:36.000 By the way, let's just be clear.

00:42:37.000 Shutdown means that everyone's pushing for something and then some other people say, no, no, we don't agree.

00:42:41.000 So a shutdown is a natural consequence of the process. 0.99

00:42:44.000 All of a sudden, the shutdown just becomes about people who don't want to spend hundreds of billions of dollars on useless shit. 1.00

00:42:49.000 And by the way, we're not spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on useless shit. 0.99

00:42:52.000 You complain about how we need hundreds of billions of dollars for books or improving schools. 1.00

00:42:58.000 No, you need them for more bombs.

00:43:00.000 Just to be clear.

00:43:02.000 At what point are there enough bombs?

00:43:04.000 And by the way, I'm someone who supports the fact that we have nuclear weapons.

00:43:07.000 Keeps Russia at bay. 0.96

00:43:07.000 I think it's good. 0.96

00:43:09.000 Like, hey, what are you doing, Iran?

00:43:10.000 We see what you're doing, right?

00:43:10.000 We're flicking the jab out.

00:43:11.000 I understand that, but do we really need another $60 billion pledged to Ukraine right now?

00:43:17.000 Hey, if that's not a valid reason, taking hundreds of billions of dollars from Americans, or as they refer to it, a rounding error, to provide it to foreign nations so they can build or purchase weapons, likely purchasing them from giant American military contractors, Then what would be a valid reason for a government shutdown?

00:43:34.000 Does it have to be 10 trillion dollars?

00:43:37.000 For more bombs?

00:43:39.000 And this is why the whole electorate, the idea of Republican and Democrat is switching.

00:43:43.000 Not that I'm a moderate, but that you see too many Republicans lining up here and allowing the Democrat playbook to continue through.

00:43:49.000 The progressive left playbook, which by the way is anti-American and it's anti-human, just to be clear.

00:43:55.000 So here's Barack Obama in 2013 blaming the government shutdown on extremist Republicans.

00:43:59.000 Good morning, everybody.

00:44:01.000 At midnight last night, for the first time in 17 years, Republicans in Congress chose to shut down the federal government.

00:44:10.000 Let me be more specific.

00:44:12.000 One faction of one party in one house of Congress, in one branch of government, shut down major parts of the government.

00:44:22.000 All because they didn't like one law.

00:44:25.000 Republicans in the House of Representatives refused to fund the government Unless we defunded or dismantled the Affordable Care Act.

00:44:34.000 Yes.

00:44:35.000 Obamacare for the uninitiated.

00:44:37.000 And by the way, nothing has been a greater kickback to insurance companies than Obamacare.

00:44:42.000 Look at the premiums, look at your deductibles, look at what it has done for American healthcare.

00:44:46.000 You can only get Obamacare, you can only get in that insurance market if you are basically below the poverty line, and of course it's very difficult to do if you are a middle-class American who actually pays taxes.

00:44:55.000 You are getting screwed by that bill and paying more for healthcare.

00:44:57.000 There's been nothing more corrosive to American healthcare than Obamacare, to be clear. 0.79

00:45:00.000 Wish they would have shut it down longer!

00:45:02.000 Yes.

00:45:03.000 And held out more!

00:45:04.000 By the way, at least we're spending, you know, hundreds of millions, if not billions, of additional dollars every single year and still not solving the problem of the uninsured, which was the whole thing.

00:45:13.000 Exactly.

00:45:14.000 Yeah.

00:45:15.000 It's like, oh, there's 50 million uninsured Americans.

00:45:16.000 How many are there now?

00:45:17.000 Like 48 million?

00:45:18.000 Yeah, 48 million.

00:45:19.000 Yeah, it turns out.

00:45:20.000 We miscalculated on that a little.

00:45:21.000 So, you know, maybe shut down in retrospect.

00:45:24.000 Yeah, progress.

00:45:25.000 That's one for you.

00:45:26.000 Good idea.

00:45:27.000 Now, former Vice President Biden did the exact same thing in 2023, and he blamed extreme Republicans for not passing, what was this, another And just to be clear, another spending bill?

00:45:39.000 Let me ask you this, okay, if you're watching right now and you're a progressive leftist or you vote Democrat.

00:45:44.000 Because the answer for the Democrat Party, at least for the last, and I'm willing to bet pretty much ever, but certainly for the last four or five decades, is no.

00:45:53.000 When is it ever okay to substantially cut spending?

00:45:58.000 In other words, it's been increase, increase, increase, increase, increase.

00:46:01.000 That's just the default.

00:46:02.000 And so when they say Republicans actually want to gut... Now hold on a second.

00:46:05.000 How about sometimes there have been shutdowns just because they want to increase by less?

00:46:09.000 Yep.

00:46:10.000 Is there ever a time?

00:46:12.000 Where you finally say, you know what?

00:46:14.000 Maybe reducing government spending.

00:46:16.000 We've been going one direction forever, let's maybe try another one.

00:46:20.000 Because schools haven't improved with the Federal Department of Education.

00:46:24.000 If you look at our quality of life here in the United States, certainly over the last three years it has not improved.

00:46:30.000 You look at infrastructure, has not improved.

00:46:33.000 But you don't necessarily think things are getting better, certainly you're not seeing that money that you're Spending more and more, being taxed more and more, and I also don't know why we need to be taxed at this point.

00:46:41.000 You can just print more money, so why tax any of it?

00:46:43.000 None of this is real.

00:46:44.000 Is there ever a point, comment below, is there ever a point, and this is a genuine question to the Democrats out there, is there ever a point where you would say, you know what, maybe we need to cut spending a little bit?

00:46:56.000 Because if you believe that, you are what?

00:46:58.000 What?

00:46:59.000 According to former Vice President Biden and the entire DNC, an extremist Republican.

00:47:04.000 Just a few months ago, the Speaker of the House and I agreed to spending levels for the government.

00:47:11.000 We were up right to the very edge, almost.

00:47:14.000 We nicked out our debt.

00:47:16.000 Obama made sure to make the letters big for him.

00:47:17.000 Yes.

00:47:19.000 and still cut the deficit by one trillion dollars over the next decade.

00:47:23.000 Now a small group of extreme house republicans, they don't want to live up to that deal

00:47:28.000 and everyone in America could be faced with paying a price for that.

00:47:34.000 And of course we fact-checked that we had a whole segment that would not actually cut the deficit.

00:47:38.000 Just to be clear.

00:47:39.000 Deficit means that you're spending far more than you actually have, right?

00:47:42.000 Then the debt is the cumulative.

00:47:44.000 Right.

00:47:44.000 So, over 10 years, if you believed his claim, you'd maybe reduce the deficit.

00:47:48.000 I mean, you'd still spend way more than you actually bring in.

00:47:51.000 But, you know, that would be better than where we're at.

00:47:54.000 Hold on a second, though.

00:47:56.000 So, in other words, we're still growing the debt by trillions every single year?

00:47:58.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:48:00.000 Still a bigger tap.

00:48:01.000 Well, then you're not really solving the problem, are you?

00:48:03.000 No.

00:48:04.000 We're just making it less worse.

00:48:05.000 But we're buying votes!

00:48:06.000 You're not taking the... We're buying votes.

00:48:06.000 Oh, that's right.

00:48:08.000 Yeah.

00:48:09.000 And you made this point, but I think most, and you guys can fact check me out there, I think most of the government, apparent government shutdowns or problems they've had with spending bills have not been to cut spending.

00:48:18.000 It's been to cut the growth of spending.

00:48:20.000 It's saying instead of growing by, say, 3%, we do 1.5% or 2% versus 4% or something like that.

00:48:20.000 Right.

00:48:25.000 Every single one that I can remember where there has been a fight over the last 20 years, it's been because of that.

00:48:31.000 Yes.

00:48:31.000 Not cutting actual spending.

00:48:33.000 Right.

00:48:34.000 That's insane!

00:48:35.000 This is why you want someone who's actually had business experience there, because you don't just say, hey, by how much are we going to increase our costs every single year of the business?

00:48:42.000 Sometimes you actually have to scale back.

00:48:44.000 Yes.

00:48:45.000 That's what happens in a marketplace. 0.96

00:48:46.000 With the government, you never do.

00:48:47.000 20-some-odd, 30 trillion?

00:48:49.000 I don't even know how many we're in debt right now.

00:48:50.000 Lane says I'm correct, by the way.

00:48:52.000 I'm not always correct on that stuff, but I'm correct here.

00:48:54.000 Trillions of dollars in debt?

00:48:55.000 At what point you're like, haha, we can't pay that.

00:48:58.000 The government has been collecting more in revenue than ever, just to be clear, and it doesn't really matter so much if you increase taxes or you decrease taxes, it ends up being that, you know, that's Hauser's Law that we've talked about, between 16 and 20% no matter what.

00:49:09.000 Just because of inflation, just because there's more money right now, people are actually giving more to the government than ever before.

00:49:16.000 It hasn't fixed anything.

00:49:18.000 Zero impact.

00:49:18.000 I wish that the government would care about their shareholders.

00:49:21.000 Yes!

00:49:23.000 Us!

00:49:24.000 Come on! 0.61

00:49:24.000 Well, they do. 0.61

00:49:25.000 It's called the Initial Social Security Beneficiaries.

00:49:28.000 Those are the ones.

00:49:29.000 They need those votes, so they don't want to solve that problem either.

00:49:31.000 It's about buying votes.

00:49:34.000 They're generating revenue so they can buy votes.

00:49:36.000 Here's some more proof for you.

00:49:37.000 Let's go through the actual contents of the bill.

00:49:39.000 Here's a claim that they'll make that the border bill here is going to solve this invasion problem.

00:49:44.000 The truth, just to be clear, it won't.

00:49:46.000 It's a simple no.

00:49:48.000 That just changes the wording.

00:49:50.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:49:51.000 How do I know?

00:49:51.000 Well, one of the co-sponsors, Chris Murphy, actually stated on X, the border never closes.

00:49:56.000 Well, there it is.

00:49:57.000 Now, I don't need to say anything else to you.

00:50:00.000 It won't solve the problem, because the border never closes.

00:50:05.000 But that was one of the things, right?

00:50:06.000 And we'll get into the numbers here in a second, but it gives the President of the United States the ability to close the border if it exceeds 5,000 encounters in seven days, right?

00:50:16.000 So seven days in a row, 5,000 encounters.

00:50:17.000 And I'm like, let's just assume for a minute that that's a good idea.

00:50:21.000 Yeah.

00:50:22.000 You can close the border.

00:50:24.000 Right.

00:50:24.000 How?

00:50:25.000 What are you gonna do?

00:50:26.000 Get the United States Armed Forces and station them along the border?

00:50:29.000 You haven't been good at closing the border now!

00:50:32.000 Yeah, the 304,000 crossing problem!

00:50:34.000 It's just saying it, that's what it is.

00:50:36.000 It's like, oh, we'll close the border!

00:50:36.000 Exactly!

00:50:37.000 Saying it's closed.

00:50:38.000 Well, can you just say it's closed now?

00:50:40.000 How?

00:50:40.000 Well, the beauty is, you were talking about hypotheticals, because again, co-sponsor of the bill, Chris Murphy, stated the border never closes.

00:50:46.000 So I don't need to say anything else!

00:50:49.000 But I will.

00:50:50.000 Can I call them?

00:50:51.000 24 hours?

00:50:52.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:50:53.000 They have reps.

00:50:53.000 He's like 7-Eleven.

00:50:54.000 Oh, yeah.

00:50:55.000 Ready to go.

00:50:55.000 So let me give you some more.

00:50:55.000 All the time.

00:50:57.000 Now, if you think you can solve the border crisis with the most amount of border interactions, or I guess apprehensions, depending on the metric, it was 304,000.

00:51:04.000 Right?

00:51:04.000 More than ever.

00:51:04.000 Was that March?

00:51:05.000 It was December.

00:51:08.000 That's right.

00:51:08.000 Before that, it was March of last year.

00:51:09.000 No, it was September.

00:51:11.000 That was a record before?

00:51:11.000 No, no.

00:51:12.000 September was a record, and then December was another record.

00:51:15.000 Okay.

00:51:15.000 Before that, it was March.

00:51:16.000 And then it went down a little bit.

00:51:18.000 The Migrant Numbers in December! 1.00

00:51:21.000 Yes I do.

00:51:21.000 do. There's a lot. So let's look at more in the bill, but the border never closes.

00:51:38.000 If you have a hole in your boat, you gotta plug the hole first.

00:51:43.000 But the bill mandates that the DHS secretary can activate emergency authority only when during a period of seven consecutive calendar days there's an average of 5,000 or more aliens who are encountered each day.

00:51:54.000 Or, on any one calendar day, a combined total of 8,500 or more aliens are encountered.

00:51:59.000 So, again, if that's just, if it doesn't cross the threshold, so let's say you go 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, okay, six days, we had over 5,000, but then day seven, you hit 4,999, it resets.

00:52:12.000 What if a guy misses the clicker?

00:52:13.000 I mean, come on, the guy at Costco's counting these guys or what?

00:52:17.000 Even if it averages out to be more than 5,000 a day, but one day is lower.

00:52:21.000 But let's just take the math and say really conservatively, alright, it's only 4,999 a day.

00:52:26.000 That would still be 1.8 million illegal immigrants crossing per year.

00:52:31.000 That's nothing.

00:52:31.000 That we encounter.

00:52:32.000 These are not the people that we don't see or stop.

00:52:35.000 And by the way, the total under Donald Trump, his presidency, was 1.9 million.

00:52:39.000 Oh wow.

00:52:40.000 So those are rookie numbers, we want to pump those up.

00:52:41.000 I wonder if that number is larger or smaller than our current military numbers.

00:52:46.000 That's a good point.

00:52:48.000 I know the answer.

00:52:49.000 I'm betting you.

00:52:49.000 You do.

00:52:50.000 It's terrifyingly smaller.

00:52:51.000 It is terrifyingly smaller.

00:52:52.000 No, the military is smaller.

00:52:54.000 We'll just be overrun.

00:52:57.000 We'll just conscript these guys and put them in the military service. 0.92

00:52:59.000 Just be overrun by bumblebee bodies. 0.77

00:52:59.000 There we go. 0.77

00:53:03.000 Bumblebee bodies like Transformers or like Mexican leaders? 1.00

00:53:07.000 All of the above.

00:53:09.000 I am Optimus Prime.

00:53:10.000 I am your date tonight.

00:53:11.000 Yo soy Optimiso Primo!

00:53:18.000 Let's combine both worlds, Josh.

00:53:21.000 Come on.

00:53:21.000 That's a good job, Joe.

00:53:24.000 Mark Wahlberg music.

00:53:25.000 No, I'm not going to do dubbing, OK?

00:53:26.000 I'm going to do it in real time.

00:53:27.000 I'll do it in Japan.

00:53:27.000 Let's do two takes.

00:53:28.000 Donde esta Bumblebee? 0.99

00:53:31.000 Huh?

00:53:31.000 You want to cross the border?

00:53:32.000 You want to cross the border?

00:53:33.000 Huh?

00:53:34.000 If I was watching the border, I wouldn't have got down like that, OK?

00:53:35.000 Where's Megan Fox? 1.00

00:53:37.000 She's not in this movie?

00:53:40.000 I was told she was going to be a hot girl in this movie. 1.00

00:53:41.000 If there was Megan Fox, there was a blonde one and a second one, we never saw her again. 1.00

00:53:44.000 Why don't you bring her back? 0.97

00:53:45.000 She's not doing anything.

00:53:46.000 She was your daughter in the movie.

00:53:48.000 Was she?

00:53:49.000 No, she wasn't.

00:53:49.000 No.

00:53:50.000 She was.

00:53:51.000 The hot one from the second Terminator?

00:53:52.000 The second Transformers?

00:53:53.000 For Mark Wahlberg, it was his daughter.

00:53:54.000 Not his real daughter.

00:53:55.000 In the movie, it was his daughter.

00:53:56.000 I don't believe you.

00:53:59.000 All of this, by the way, is meaningless.

00:54:00.000 Getting back to the bill.

00:54:00.000 It's all meaningless.

00:54:02.000 Because former Vice President Biden, he can suspend it.

00:54:05.000 He can just not do it.

00:54:06.000 He can just not do it.

00:54:07.000 He's like, ah, it's in the best interest of the United States for me not to do this, even though it's an emergency.

00:54:11.000 Yeah.

00:54:12.000 No.

00:54:13.000 Huh?

00:54:14.000 Oh, and that screws your whole plan?

00:54:16.000 That's like to give you an idea.

00:54:18.000 This actually happened in Canada.

00:54:19.000 Someone tried to assassinate our Prime Minister.

00:54:21.000 in Canada. They made it into the house. With a pie? No, they actually, no, it's even worse. They made

00:54:26.000 it into the house of the Prime Minister and they took cutlery from the Prime Minister's house.

00:54:30.000 They didn't even show up with a weapon. And they made it to the Prime Minister's bedroom

00:54:34.000 and the wife was like, oh crap, and closed the door and that's how it was thwarted. And he had

00:54:39.000 a butter knife and he's like, what's this all about? Like it was signs. Yeah. Like, ah!

00:54:44.000 Like, ah, that man has a spork, let me close the door.

00:54:48.000 That's how useless this is if someone can just, ah, close the door.

00:54:51.000 That's former Vice President Joe Biden.

00:54:52.000 He's like, no.

00:54:54.000 It's left up to his discretion, to be clear.

00:54:56.000 By the way, I want you to take a guess.

00:54:58.000 How many days over the last year do you think that we've had more than 5,000 encounters?

00:55:03.000 How many days?

00:55:04.000 How many days?

00:55:05.000 Over the last year.

00:55:06.000 I'm going to just, I'm going to, I'm going to shortcut it.

00:55:08.000 365.

00:55:08.000 All.

00:55:09.000 All?

00:55:09.000 All.

00:55:10.000 No.

00:55:10.000 Yeah, I don't even think there was one day that we didn't have that.

00:55:12.000 Well, why would you ask me a question?

00:55:13.000 It's a trick question.

00:55:14.000 You already knew the answer, okay?

00:55:15.000 Here's a fun thing.

00:55:15.000 What are you doing there, guy?

00:55:16.000 He said it could shut down the border and he can take care of this problem for us, right?

00:55:19.000 But he can only shut it down for a certain number of days each year, and the number of days that he can shut it down each year is going down!

00:55:25.000 I think it starts at like 270 and it ends up in like the high 100 at the end.

00:55:28.000 Which means, even though that provision would be there, And we had all of the days in the last year that had over 5,000.

00:55:34.000 He couldn't close it down for all the days over 5,000.

00:55:36.000 Well, he could.

00:55:37.000 He can't.

00:55:37.000 He just chose not to.

00:55:38.000 I'm saying with this bill.

00:55:39.000 Yeah.

00:55:40.000 The bill still wouldn't allow him to do it.

00:55:42.000 There's so many holes.

00:55:42.000 It's absurd.

00:55:42.000 No.

00:55:44.000 It's like the border.

00:55:45.000 The bill is like the border.

00:55:46.000 Yes, exactly.

00:55:47.000 Well, it gets even worse than that because I know what you're thinking.

00:55:49.000 Hey, this is a bill to solve the immigration crisis, right?

00:55:52.000 That's harming a lot of Americans not only through the labor market But it's also harming Americans through rising crime right across certainly in southern border states housing market the housing market Of course all these issues and of course, not only it helped it cost the taxpayer 120 something billion dollars a year.

00:56:07.000 I believe it's $140 billion a year now.

00:56:09.000 Last time we did it, when we did the change my mind, it was over 160.

00:56:11.000 It's over 150, over 150.

00:56:12.000 That's right, it's over 150 billion.

00:56:13.000 Jeez.

00:56:14.000 Six years ago, it was 116 billion.

00:56:16.000 That's what illegal immigrants cost you, the taxpayer. 1.00

00:56:18.000 So you think, border bill, as it's being called, bipartisan, this must be about the border.

00:56:24.000 That's the claim.

00:56:25.000 The claim is the bill is about the border.

00:56:27.000 The truth.

00:56:28.000 Ha.

00:56:32.000 Ha ha ha ha ha. 1.00

00:56:34.000 Bull, bull, bull, bullshit. 1.00

00:56:35.000 Just to be clear. 1.00

00:56:36.000 Bullshit. 1.00

00:56:36.000 Okay? 1.00

00:56:39.000 Most of the money is foreign aid.

00:56:42.000 So let's walk through this.

00:56:43.000 To the Ukraine, $60 billion.

00:56:46.000 $14 billion to Israel.

00:56:48.000 Another $2.4 billion to the Red Sea conflict.

00:56:51.000 When you're talking about Taiwan, the Indo-Pacific kind of conflict, another $4 billion.

00:56:54.000 four billion dollars. Now, this is a hundred and eighteen billion dollar bill,

00:56:59.000 twenty billion of which goes to the border.

00:57:01.000 Holy mackerel! 0.99

00:57:04.000 Three times the amount to Ukraine alone.

00:57:06.000 Call it the Ukraine bill where the border tossed its name on there.

00:57:09.000 Exactly.

00:57:10.000 That makes me want to go just like a white silverback. 1.00

00:57:14.000 Slap yourself and eat a carrot. 0.88

00:57:19.000 I thought it was a gorilla.

00:57:19.000 It was a seagull.

00:57:20.000 Yeah, it was a seagull.

00:57:22.000 That's a bad impression.

00:57:23.000 How much money do you think is in there for building an actual wall?

00:57:27.000 This is a trick question.

00:57:28.000 Zero.

00:57:29.000 Zero is the answer.

00:57:30.000 Here's the thing though.

00:57:30.000 Here's the thing.

00:57:31.000 Here's the thing that they do every single time.

00:57:33.000 We'll talk about this with regards to Reagan and Amnesty first and build the wall later.

00:57:37.000 If there's money left over...

00:57:40.000 Yeah.

00:57:40.000 If.

00:57:41.000 Then it goes back to Congress to see if they actually want to use the leftover funds to actually build a wall. 1.00

00:57:48.000 Bullshit. 1.00

00:57:49.000 A wall. 1.00

00:57:50.000 They're going to have $20 billion in surplus.

00:57:51.000 The thing that would keep you from ever reaching the 5,000 mark in a single day of encounters at a non-port of entry, the wall, the only thing that would, is not even being built in this bill.

00:58:03.000 I'll settle for building a wall around Kiv. 0.98

00:58:07.000 Just to keep him in.

00:58:10.000 It's Kiev.

00:58:11.000 Kiev.

00:58:12.000 I've heard Kiev.

00:58:13.000 Kiev.

00:58:14.000 I don't care.

00:58:14.000 It's a country that I don't care about.

00:58:16.000 Not the people.

00:58:17.000 The country.

00:58:18.000 The country in general.

00:58:19.000 I don't like Russia.

00:58:20.000 I don't like Ukraine.

00:58:21.000 I get it.

00:58:22.000 All of God's children.

00:58:23.000 Doesn't apply here.

00:58:27.000 They don't have a God.

00:58:28.000 Think about that.

00:58:29.000 Nothing going to a border wall.

00:58:31.000 $20 billion to the border.

00:58:32.000 It's calling us the border bill.

00:58:34.000 Yes, just go pass your funding to Ukraine separately.

00:58:36.000 Go pass Israel funding separately.

00:58:38.000 Indochina separately.

00:58:39.000 This $20 billion, unless it's to build a wall, which by the way $20 billion would do, it doesn't matter.

00:58:45.000 Stop talking.

00:58:46.000 What the left wants to do is say, look, they don't want to solve the border problem, but what's really happening is they don't want to individually propose another $60 billion for Ukraine because they know that their constituents would vote them out.

00:58:56.000 That would be incredibly unpopular.

00:58:57.000 So they say it's a border bill.

00:58:58.000 Republicans won't pass it.

00:58:59.000 Republicans, conservatives should be saying, no, no, it's three times the amount to Ukraine alone.

00:59:03.000 This has nothing to do with the border.

00:59:05.000 They want to blame you so they can make you unpopular.

00:59:08.000 And they want to make all of you watching, let's get rid of representatives, you, your point of view, unpopular.

00:59:13.000 Which is why they're afraid of it.

00:59:14.000 Which is why they're afraid of calling this bill the Ukraine bill.

00:59:18.000 Because they don't want to be unpopular.

00:59:20.000 Because it's fundamentally dishonest.

00:59:21.000 And no one wants to send another $60 billion to Ukraine.

00:59:24.000 Well, they are spending that $20 billion on something on the border.

00:59:24.000 Yeah.

00:59:27.000 They're actually building new ports of entry.

00:59:29.000 It's going to be fast-track citizenship, and then right after you get out of the port of entry, boom!

00:59:29.000 Yes.

00:59:34.000 Registration building.

00:59:35.000 And it's also a trick because the ports of entry are just new, on-the-border franchises.

00:59:40.000 It's just southern.

00:59:40.000 It's mediocre Mexican food.

00:59:43.000 Their salsa's good.

00:59:44.000 Well, they will make it better.

00:59:45.000 They will improve it.

00:59:46.000 Some of them are immigrants. 1.00

00:59:47.000 Some of them are coming from Africa and won't do shit for us. 1.00

00:59:49.000 They won their no-bid contract beating out Chi-Chi's. 1.00

00:59:52.000 Chi-Chi sucks. 1.00

00:59:53.000 Hey! 1.00

00:59:54.000 Chi-Chi's are great! 0.64

00:59:55.000 Chi-Chi's were Chi-Chi's. 1.00

00:59:56.000 They used to have the margarita Tuesdays. 0.99

00:59:57.000 They suck. 0.98

00:59:58.000 Let's go to another claim. 1.00

00:59:58.000 Fine. 1.00

00:59:59.000 They'll try and say that former Vice President Biden is powerless to do anything again.

00:59:59.000 Here.

01:00:03.000 So he can't do anything because Republicans aren't doing anything.

01:00:06.000 None of this is me without this bill.

01:00:10.000 And also give me his president.

01:00:12.000 The emergency authorities shut down the border until it could get back under control.

01:00:17.000 If that bill were the law today, I'd shut down the border right now and fix it quickly.

01:00:21.000 No, you wouldn't.

01:00:21.000 You'd have to.

01:00:22.000 First off, you wouldn't, because here's the truth.

01:00:22.000 Okay, okay.

01:00:25.000 Former Vice President could shut down the border right now, immediately.

01:00:27.000 He could.

01:00:28.000 Let me give you some precedence here.

01:00:29.000 He doesn't need new power?

01:00:31.000 In 2018, the Supreme Court upheld President Trump's travel ban.

01:00:35.000 Justice Roberts already said that the President has the authority to make national security judgments related to immigration, just to be clear.

01:00:40.000 The President right now has the authority to do so.

01:00:43.000 He does not.

01:00:44.000 He did not.

01:00:45.000 He undid a lot of Donald Trump's executive orders, executive actions on the border.

01:00:49.000 On his very first day, it was his priority to undo it.

01:00:52.000 And just to be clear, this is one of those issues that would fall under the legitimate purview of government to protect you from internal and external threats, and now it's being left to the states, where it's working.

01:01:01.000 In Texas, let's look at some of the Eagle Pass, by the way.

01:01:04.000 They've taken some measures there, or as many of you out there call it, racist.

01:01:09.000 The Eagles pass crossings, they went from 3,000 to 4,000 crossings a day, down to under 200 crossings a day.

01:01:13.000 a day down to under 200 crossings a day.

01:01:17.000 3 to 4,000 is almost the 5,000 mark in one place.

01:01:20.000 In one place.

01:01:21.000 Whoa, that's way too effective, Steve.

01:01:23.000 We've got to take down that fence.

01:01:24.000 Yes, yes, exactly.

01:01:25.000 Actually, you know, the Biden administration is so committing to securing our border that they actually sued the state of Texas and took it all the way to the Supreme Court to make sure that they could cut the razor wire that was actually reducing the problem by, I don't know, around 95, 99 percent.

01:01:36.000 It's not like they always say, look at how much, hold on a second, there are three to four crossings in really one area, a concentrated area.

01:01:43.000 So you could step in, yeah, three to four thousand per day.

01:01:46.000 You said 3-4 crossings, which would have been a really good reduction.

01:01:46.000 What did I say?

01:01:50.000 Oh, 3-4,000.

01:01:50.000 You know, at some point, that's like a take an immigrant, leave an immigrant jar.

01:01:50.000 Sorry, 3-4,000.

01:01:55.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:01:56.000 Win some, lose some.

01:01:58.000 No, 3-4,000 in one spot per day.

01:02:00.000 Former Vice President Biden could have stepped in.

01:02:03.000 No, he didn't.

01:02:03.000 Shut it down.

01:02:04.000 So the state had to take it up and then the federal government fought the state and it works.

01:02:08.000 These people don't want it to work because they want to give 60 billion dollars to Ukraine.

01:02:13.000 We could be doing even better than they're doing at Eagle Pass.

01:02:15.000 Here's a summary of former Vice President Trump's, sorry, I mean to say sitting President Trump.

01:02:19.000 Some people call him former president.

01:02:20.000 I call him sitting president.

01:02:21.000 His plan on the border.

01:02:23.000 I want to remind the public that Donald Trump and House Republicans also have their own ideas for the border.

01:02:29.000 So let's review the majority's border ideas that they've actually presented.

01:02:35.000 Here they are.

01:02:36.000 Donald Trump actually has said that he wants to build alligator moats along the border.

01:02:41.000 That's one of his incredible ideas.

01:02:43.000 I did that.

01:02:44.000 Another idea that Donald Trump has promoted is he actually wants to electrify the border fence and maybe even put some spikes on the border.

01:02:51.000 That's another Donald Trump and MAGA majority border idea.

01:02:56.000 Gotta keep the alligators out. 0.99

01:02:57.000 Yes!

01:02:58.000 You know, electrify the fence.

01:03:01.000 Fake news!

01:03:01.000 The spikes were to keep the alligators in.

01:03:06.000 Outside of that, pretty close.

01:03:08.000 I did do that.

01:03:08.000 I did.

01:03:09.000 That's a great idea.

01:03:11.000 It's a wildlife preserve.

01:03:13.000 It's new culture for America.

01:03:15.000 And frankly, at first I wanted crocodiles because alligators are more skittish.

01:03:19.000 They're like giant squirrels.

01:03:20.000 Why couldn't you get crocodiles?

01:03:21.000 Well, look, it's a whole Endangered Species Act.

01:03:23.000 Take it up with Teddy Roosevelt and National Parks.

01:03:26.000 But I wanted crocs!

01:03:28.000 I couldn't like the plan more.

01:03:30.000 It sounds like securing the border by whatever means necessary.

01:03:34.000 I love how he thought he was owning Donald Trump.

01:03:36.000 Yeah, it's like he has solutions.

01:03:39.000 He's like, we could do a wall.

01:03:40.000 They're like, no, no, no, we can't do that.

01:03:42.000 He's like, all right, well, how about the National Guard?

01:03:44.000 They're like, no, we can't do that.

01:03:46.000 Nah, we can't do that.

01:03:46.000 How about sentries?

01:03:48.000 Alligator moat?

01:03:49.000 That's where I'm at.

01:03:50.000 Can we do something?

01:03:51.000 Electrified fence, spikes, alligators.

01:03:53.000 I don't know.

01:03:53.000 Yeah.

01:03:55.000 The wall is too expensive.

01:03:56.000 You just dig a moat.

01:03:57.000 The alligators need somewhere to go, folks. 0.97

01:04:00.000 They also didn't talk about his corn maze idea.

01:04:01.000 He had a great corn maze idea.

01:04:03.000 And even better, around Halloween, it would get spooky.

01:04:07.000 He would end up in Indiana.

01:04:09.000 And you'd be like, how did I get here?

01:04:10.000 Nobody wants that.

01:04:11.000 And I'd be like, it's not just the Corps.

01:04:12.000 I'd be like, I feel like it's just the Corps!

01:04:14.000 You don't know where you are!

01:04:15.000 You get turned around, someone comes out with a jump scare, and you leave, you end up in Honduras.

01:04:15.000 It's May for a week!

01:04:22.000 El Salvador, maybe, depends on the season.

01:04:25.000 So here's another truth, just to be clear.

01:04:27.000 Biden's executive actions on immigration, look, it was very clear that he caused this crisis.

01:04:32.000 Not always can you blame someone in a position of power, but January to May 2021.

01:04:37.000 Okay.

01:04:38.000 He rolled back right away.

01:04:39.000 Remain in Mexico, the policy. 0.98

01:04:40.000 He terminated Trump's border emergency and the declaration that existed.

01:04:45.000 He diverted border wall funds.

01:04:46.000 He said there's no more emergency on the border.

01:04:48.000 So there's no more emergency on the border.

01:04:49.000 He's like, yeah, there's no more emergency.

01:04:49.000 He didn't just get rid of it.

01:04:51.000 And he didn't just do this.

01:04:51.000 Everything's fine.

01:04:52.000 He did it on the day he was sworn in.

01:04:54.000 First day.

01:04:55.000 Keystone Pipeline was the very first thing that he signed, and then he moved right onto this.

01:04:59.000 It was the very first day that he... Well, hold on a second.

01:05:01.000 You did it your first day when you were being sworn in, when you were still picking out drapes, for crying out loud, for the Obelops.

01:05:07.000 Now you can't?

01:05:08.000 You can't toss a little bit of help to Eagle's Pass over there in Texas?

01:05:13.000 He didn't think he'd be alive this long, to be honest.

01:05:15.000 I think so, if you look at the actuary tables, which I know he didn't.

01:05:19.000 I didn't think I was going to make it.

01:05:20.000 And don't take my word for it, will LeVar Burton this?

01:05:25.000 Just hear it from the illegal immigrants themselves. 0.51

01:05:27.000 They wouldn't have crossed under President Trump.

01:05:29.000 Did you come here because Joe Biden was elected president?

01:05:32.000 Basically.

01:05:33.000 Basically.

01:05:35.000 The main thing was the violence in my country.

01:05:38.000 And the second thing I think was Joe Biden.

01:05:41.000 Think about that for a moment.

01:05:43.000 That's an American.

01:05:45.000 Basically.

01:05:46.000 Like, you were just behind, your weakness was just behind that guy seeing his brother's head on a turtle.

01:05:55.000 That was reason number one, and number two was... A shell shock for sure.

01:05:59.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:06:00.000 He's like, you know, it's kind of crazy.

01:06:02.000 You see a head on a turtle, you know, and it's kind of, it used to be your brother.

01:06:05.000 And then I like Joe Biden.

01:06:06.000 Yeah, Joe Biden's not going to do anything, so I don't have to worry about my head on a turtle, bro.

01:06:10.000 Dude, that guy's American. 1.00

01:06:12.000 There's no way that was a migrant. 1.00

01:06:13.000 Basically, they didn't even name any country.

01:06:15.000 It's like, my country.

01:06:17.000 It sounded like I was doing the interview.

01:06:19.000 Like, my country, it's like Mexican or whatever.

01:06:22.000 Yeah.

01:06:23.000 I just wanted to cross.

01:06:25.000 I just wanted to climb a wall.

01:06:26.000 So let's wrap this up here, unless I've missed anything.

01:06:29.000 Bipartisanship, of course, is not a virtue.

01:06:31.000 That's what they're going to be saying.

01:06:31.000 Bipartisan.

01:06:33.000 Okay, let's be really clear.

01:06:34.000 It's $60 billion for Ukraine.

01:06:35.000 It's $20 billion for the border.

01:06:38.000 The bill does not solve the crisis at all because illegals can keep coming in in record numbers. 0.99

01:06:41.000 They get taxpayer-funded lawyers.

01:06:43.000 They get work permit requirements eliminated from this, right?

01:06:45.000 You get 50,000 extra visas per year.

01:06:48.000 20 billion dollars will be going to... I think that's the most important point.

01:06:51.000 20 billion to the border, 60 billion dollars to Ukraine.

01:06:53.000 Somehow it gets called a border bill.

01:06:54.000 Yeah, a hundred billion roughly not going to the border in this bill.

01:06:58.000 Like 17% of the bill is border.

01:07:01.000 I might be wrong by like half or 1%.

01:07:04.000 There should be a law.

01:07:05.000 There should be some kind of rule.

01:07:06.000 I mean, they make the rules, but there should be some kind of rule that, like, there's a percentage that it has to be related to the title.

01:07:13.000 Like, you call us the blue skies bill, at least 55% needs to be dedicated to keeping the sky blue.

01:07:20.000 It's like, okay, hold on a second.

01:07:21.000 Yeah, you know what?

01:07:21.000 I'll take the chicken salad sandwich.

01:07:23.000 And they don't tell you that it's actually 80% shrimp.

01:07:23.000 Like, okay, great.

01:07:26.000 Dude, this was Subway.

01:07:28.000 Subway did this with tuna.

01:07:30.000 They found out... Oh, sorry, my... I don't give a rat's ass. 0.99

01:07:32.000 Oh, okay, yeah. 0.99

01:07:33.000 You think we're gonna be taken out by Big Subway? 0.99

01:07:35.000 Oh, shit, is Jared here? 0.99

01:07:37.000 No. 1.00

01:07:38.000 My kids are hidden. 1.00

01:07:38.000 He's being raped. 1.00

01:07:39.000 Yeah, I know. 1.00

01:07:40.000 I hope he's getting raped real hard. 1.00

01:07:41.000 All the footlongs he can handle. 1.00

01:07:42.000 But yeah, they did that.

01:07:44.000 They found out that their tuna was like 80% tuna.

01:07:45.000 And they're like, what's the other 20%... Stuff? 1.00

01:07:49.000 I don't know, but we fixed it.

01:07:50.000 Like, I don't know.

01:07:50.000 Yeah.

01:07:51.000 I guess I forgot what it's like to be you, Mr. Perfect!

01:07:55.000 Mr. Jimmy John and your big game hunting.

01:07:58.000 No, Josh, it's worse than that.

01:07:59.000 It would be as if 20% of their tuna sandwich was tuna.

01:08:02.000 Yes, exactly.

01:08:03.000 It's actually the exact opposite.

01:08:05.000 Now with 20% real tuna.

01:08:09.000 Approved.

01:08:09.000 Huh?

01:08:10.000 Sorry, 17.5% real tuna.

01:08:13.000 Libby's Juicy Juice.

01:08:14.000 20% juice for 20% kids.

01:08:15.000 What?

01:08:15.000 That doesn't make sense.

01:08:17.000 I'm not buying that, I don't think.

01:08:24.000 Man, I'd buy that.

01:08:25.000 I'd buy that stuff.

01:08:26.000 What would you do with $60 billion?

01:08:31.000 Probably fight a war I can't win.

01:08:32.000 Yeah.

01:08:35.000 Don't be defeatist for Ukrainians.

01:08:37.000 We've already done that.

01:08:38.000 Yeah, I know.

01:08:38.000 Yeah, they're in Afghanistan territory.

01:08:40.000 Anything I missed?

01:08:41.000 I think we wrapped it up.

01:08:41.000 Nope.

01:08:42.000 There you go.

01:08:43.000 I just hope that that's 60 billion to Ukraine, 20 billion to border.

01:08:45.000 60 billion to Ukraine, 20 billion to border.

01:08:47.000 60 billion to Ukraine, 20 billion to border.

01:08:48.000 It's the border bill!

01:08:50.000 Now.

01:08:52.000 That does include another country's border.

01:08:56.000 I I really just needed to say that and that the sponsor of the bill said the border never closes.

01:09:00.000 Okay, 60 billion in Ukraine, 20 billion in the border, and the border never closes.

01:09:03.000 But I want to ensure that you feel as though you are informed.

01:09:03.000 Done.

01:09:06.000 Sometimes I just get a low-grade irritation that I even have to go through it because none of it matters at this point if the rate limiting factor is that you don't close the border and only 20 billion in a 118 billion dollar bill goes to the border.

01:09:19.000 So we have our on-the-ground correspondent.

01:09:21.000 We spend our own money.

01:09:22.000 Sometimes we're not necessarily the most prudent with finances.

01:09:27.000 Thomas Finnegan, he's actually at least at the border right now to give us some insight on the situation.

01:09:33.000 Well, it's also a big problem, just so you know, the human trafficking on the border, too.

01:09:36.000 So this is something we've discussed, and we actually wanted to have Thomas Finnegan.

01:09:39.000 We have mugged him.

01:09:41.000 Get some eyes on the human trafficking situation, how it affects everyone, leaves no family untouched.

01:09:45.000 on the ground correspondent Thomas Finnegan.

01:09:47.000 Mr. Finnegan, what are you seeing down there?

01:09:58.000 Hi, Steven.

01:09:59.000 Yep.

01:10:00.000 What are you seeing?

01:10:01.000 What's going on?

01:10:02.000 Well, as you can see behind me, humans in traffic is a serious problem.

01:10:07.000 And it's not just here, it's all over the place.

01:10:10.000 I actually have the stats here that I could go through.

01:10:13.000 This is, it's a traffic report.

01:10:14.000 Of course it is.

01:10:16.000 Of course.

01:10:16.000 Did you really think that today we were going to be doing a story on traffic, Thomas?

01:10:21.000 Is that what you thought?

01:10:21.000 You thought we were sending you out to get a...

01:10:28.000 Hey, do you want quesadillas for lunch?

01:10:30.000 This is... He's texting me about quesadillas now.

01:10:44.000 Those actually don't sound bad.

01:10:45.000 I mean, sure.

01:10:47.000 But that wasn't the point.

01:10:48.000 What's the difference between a quesadilla and a chimichanga?

01:10:50.000 Oh, chimichangas like a burrito. 1.00

01:10:52.000 Like a fried burrito.

01:10:53.000 Deep fried.

01:10:54.000 Yeah.

01:10:54.000 Oh, okay.

01:10:55.000 What's a tamale?

01:10:56.000 A tamale is a, it's like a, it's got this corn mixture in it.

01:11:01.000 Yeah.

01:11:01.000 It's called masa, and then it's with meat, you put meat with it, and then you wrap it in a corn husk.

01:11:05.000 It's a corn taco.

01:11:07.000 Basically.

01:11:08.000 Baked.

01:11:08.000 Basically.

01:11:09.000 Inside of like a soup.

01:11:10.000 Anyway, the point is, let's put a lunch order in.

01:11:12.000 I'm getting hungry.

01:11:13.000 I'll take a quesadilla.

01:11:14.000 I'll do it.

01:11:15.000 Quesadillas are not bad.

01:11:15.000 They're underrated, the quesadillas.

01:11:18.000 You go someplace and they have an extensive menu, like you can't screw up the quesadillas.

01:11:21.000 I think they're actually perfectly rated.

01:11:22.000 Yeah?

01:11:23.000 Yeah, I think they're right where they're supposed to be in the hierarchy of Mexican foods.

01:11:27.000 That's fair.

01:11:30.000 Underrated tortas.

01:11:32.000 Changed your mind?

01:11:35.000 You know what, every now and then I shoot from the hip.

01:11:37.000 I changed his mind, there we go.

01:11:40.000 Put it on record, I changed Steven Crowder's mind.

01:11:44.000 I guess you're right, because they have both their supporters and detractors.

01:11:47.000 You know what's overrated?

01:11:49.000 Tostadas.

01:11:50.000 What's a tostada?

01:11:51.000 It's a flat crispy corn with the beans and then the meat and then you have to hold it level.

01:11:57.000 You have to get a level.

01:11:58.000 You have to get a carpenter and he has to hold it level and then you have to eat it without spilling it all over your place.

01:12:02.000 So it sounds to me like it's largely the same food but then it's differentiated by geometry.

01:12:06.000 Well a tostada is the same thing as a sopa.

01:12:09.000 Oh no, that's a... It's like a giant nacho.

01:12:11.000 Yeah.

01:12:12.000 Okay.

01:12:13.000 Yeah.

01:12:13.000 Which is different from a chimichanga.

01:12:15.000 Yeah, different from a chimichanga-chonga. 0.99

01:12:17.000 Chonga? 0.98

01:12:17.000 Chinky-changa. 0.98

01:12:18.000 Chinky-changa? 1.00

01:12:18.000 I don't know. 1.00

01:12:19.000 Chimichimichanga-chonga-cho! 0.99

01:12:22.000 Mexican fusion's here to stay.

01:12:24.000 This is why we need better public schools.

01:12:27.000 Because we are the product of it.

01:12:31.000 And so some places are trying, right?

01:12:33.000 So let me set this up for you.

01:12:35.000 In 2020, Uh, this, this person.

01:12:38.000 I don't want to misgender because we're still technically on YouTube.

01:12:40.000 Yeah, I don't really know.

01:12:41.000 Akia Kaiky Gross is the name of this person.

01:12:44.000 Did you go by Kaiky?

01:12:46.000 Miss Gross.

01:12:47.000 That's translated from, uh, yuck.

01:12:49.000 Yes!

01:12:51.000 Middle name.

01:12:52.000 Blech.

01:12:52.000 It was Scandinavian for yuck.

01:12:55.000 This person founded an organization called, quote, Woke Kindergarten.

01:12:59.000 And just to be clear, before we move on here, we're going to talk about this more on Mug Club because we just realized there's no good way to do this if we're still on YouTube.

01:13:05.000 Lots of money spent actually went federal funds to this Woke Kindergarten initiative.

01:13:10.000 And scores are worse.

01:13:11.000 There's a spoiler alert.

01:13:12.000 I'm kind of giving you the end because, hey, it's not about the destination, it's about the journey.

01:13:17.000 And so here is Miss Gross in her own words. 1.00

01:13:23.000 I believe Israel has no right to exist. 1.00

01:13:26.000 I believe the United States has no right to exist.

01:13:27.000 I believe every settler colony who has committed genocide against native peoples and indigenous people has no right to exist.

01:13:36.000 White supremacy destroys for the sake of destruction.

01:13:41.000 Abolition destroys for the sake of creation. 0.75

01:13:44.000 We are not the same.

01:13:46.000 Just one thing, just to be clear, before we move on. 0.94

01:13:50.000 I don't like white supremacists. 0.99

01:13:52.000 Hitler is bad. 1.00

01:13:56.000 That being said, even white supremacists, they don't destroy just for the sake of destruction. 0.96

01:14:03.000 They destroy to get rid of all of the minority groups so that they believe they can build up a perfect utopia. 1.00

01:14:10.000 Hitler didn't just kill Jews for the sake of destruction.

01:14:15.000 It's because he wanted to turn it back into what he believed was Great Mother Prussia before him and they could return to their pre-embarrassed international stature before the Treaty of Versailles.

01:14:24.000 In other words, to just misidentify the...

01:14:27.000 The motive, you're not going to know the problem.

01:14:30.000 When they say, oh, white supremacists tear down, they destroy just for the sake of destruction, okay, as opposed to, and here's the other thing, this is what the left does, this is what woke ideology, what DEI, what black liberation theology does, they want to destroy just for the sake, okay, so get rid of the curriculum, you get rid of American history, as you want to, all right, so you get rid of it and replace it with what?

01:14:50.000 African history? 0.98

01:14:52.000 We're gonna show up there and go, oh crap, there's more slaves! 1.00

01:14:54.000 There's still more slaves over here! 1.00

01:14:56.000 They were selling slaves! 0.90

01:14:57.000 They were capturing slaves across the border!

01:14:59.000 Oh, there's, by the way, do you hear that sound?

01:15:01.000 That's the sound of the toiling and screaming of slaves still there today in Africa! 0.97

01:15:07.000 African history's easy to teach because it's the same as African present.

01:15:10.000 Yes, exactly!

01:15:10.000 Aw.

01:15:11.000 Aw.

01:15:12.000 You don't have to backtrack or anything.

01:15:14.000 You just gotta, oh, yeah, same.

01:15:15.000 They're just not selling to the US.

01:15:17.000 anymore.

01:15:18.000 So what are you going to do?

01:15:19.000 So you want to destroy it to teach what?

01:15:22.000 To teach that now you have to acknowledge to the point where I'm like, hey, let's let them destroy it.

01:15:27.000 Let's let them destroy it because they're like a dog chasing.

01:15:29.000 Here you go.

01:15:29.000 Get rid of imagined history.

01:15:31.000 What history are you going to teach?

01:15:31.000 You know what?

01:15:32.000 Let's start with Africa. 0.58

01:15:33.000 Let's go over to Asia.

01:15:35.000 Let's go to Middle East. 0.97

01:15:36.000 How about we go to any other Country, that we're talking about.

01:15:40.000 Continent, for crying out loud. 0.88

01:15:42.000 More slaves! 0.78

01:15:43.000 And to this day, more slaves. 0.85

01:15:45.000 And it makes no sense to say that white supremacists destroy for the sake... And just to be clear, white supremacists here in this country, they're socialists. 0.93

01:15:52.000 They are socialists who believe in all the social safety net and welfare programs, only they teach their constituents that it can't work because of black and brown people. 1.00

01:16:02.000 And that's exactly what Hitler did. 0.94

01:16:04.000 He said, we can have all of these benefits, we can have all of these state-run programs, we can have the Big Brother, and it's actually good, we're here to help, but only white people. 0.97

01:16:14.000 Throughout history, it's not a right-wing ideology, these are socialists who then base it off of melanin.

01:16:19.000 So this person is teaching children, or this person's program is teaching children, and hey, is it any wonder That the literacy rates, the basic functions as far as math, all went down because the same person said white people destroy just for the sake of destruction! 0.65

01:16:39.000 I had something to say about the North and the South earlier.

01:16:41.000 We'll say it in a minute.

01:16:42.000 Save it for Mug Club.

01:16:43.000 All right.

01:16:43.000 So look, we're going to continue with this.

01:16:44.000 I'm sure he probably did the YouTube dump button at some point.

01:16:46.000 A few times, yeah.

01:16:47.000 If you're watching on Rumble, you can hit that button right there.

01:16:49.000 Join Mug Club.

01:16:50.000 Hey, none of this happens without you and your support.

01:16:52.000 You can go Mugless for $9 right now.

01:16:54.000 And if you're watching on YouTube, I don't... What?

01:16:58.000 Okay.

01:16:59.000 All right.

01:16:59.000 You're still on YouTube, Kinzinger.

01:17:01.000 Thank you, Rumble. 0.99

01:17:02.000 YouTube, piss off. 0.97
