00:04:48.000 We're growing my club.

00:04:59.000 Jimmy Neutron hairdo.
00:05:01.000 Oy, look at you, you bastard.
00:05:02.000 And there he is, Mr. Ed's Teeth.
00:05:04.000 Hey, Nikki Haley looks good tonight.
00:05:10.000 But it is true that cable news is dying.
00:05:11.000 It is dying and this is one of, we talked about that up there, this is one of the first events where you're seeing them die and rumble and places like that are going to take them out.
00:05:18.000 Put the nail in the coffin, boys.
00:05:24.000 By the way, none of that checks out.
00:05:26.000 Two million early votes were cast.
00:05:28.000 We are gearing up for 2024, which I believe is the most important election of our lifetime.
00:05:32.000 So, let's get started.
00:05:56.000 Ooh, glad to be back with you.
00:06:19.000 That's a slurp.
00:06:20.000 That is a slurp.
00:06:21.000 I don't know if we're supposed to- people say they want me to keep it.
00:06:23.000 If you don't want me to do the slurp anymore, I don't have to do the slurp.
00:06:23.000 I don't know.
00:06:25.000 But glad to be back with you here.
00:06:27.000 I was doing third share a little bit last week.
00:06:29.000 We've got some other things to tend to.
00:06:31.000 And then tomorrow at 8.30 Eastern, we're going to live stream the debate.
00:06:35.000 Yes!
00:06:36.000 The GOP debate number two.
00:06:38.000 Now I expect this to be- I would expect the debate to be somewhat boring, so our stream will not.
00:06:42.000 Yes.
00:06:44.000 Just to be clear, if you have to watch it, you can watch it along with us.
00:06:48.000 But we have a lot to get to.
00:06:49.000 Before that, of course, we have a This Week in Biden today.
00:06:51.000 I don't know if you know this, but you are paying... we see a looming government shutdown.
00:06:56.000 That could happen.
00:06:58.000 Not a whole lot.
00:06:58.000 Which affects your life.
00:07:00.000 You know, if you want to go to, like, a national park, you know, Yellowstone, your chances of being attacked by a bear go up slightly.
00:07:06.000 Seven percent.
00:07:07.000 Especially if you're carrying a picnic basket, or you put an apple pie on the windowsill.
00:07:10.000 Now, we may face a shutdown, but at the same time you're paying for Ukrainian salaries.
00:07:15.000 You know, 130-something billion dollars now pledged.
00:07:17.000 Another story that's pretty interesting, on behalf of Indians, Native Americans, they're suing this group.
00:07:23.000 Civil rights group is suing the Washington Commanders, formerly the Redskins, because they're not offended, but it turns out that white bitches were.
00:07:31.000 Again.
00:07:32.000 So this is a perfect example of the fact that white people are offended on behalf, white liberals I should say, are offended on behalf of minorities.
00:07:38.000 And they're like, oh yeah, well hold on, we're not with them.
00:07:40.000 And then the Dallas mayor, who was a Democrat, has now become a Republican.
00:07:42.000 That's a party switch.
00:07:43.000 Want to know what you think about that?
00:07:45.000 And when someone makes a switch in power, you can comment below.
00:07:48.000 Are you skeptical that they're a wolf in sheep's clothing?
00:07:50.000 Or do you think that people just change their minds and they evolve, right?
00:07:53.000 There are two schools of thought on that.
00:07:54.000 I'm always cautiously optimistic.
00:07:57.000 Number two, Gerald, CEO.
00:07:58.000 How are you, sir?
00:07:59.000 I'm cautiously optimistic as well.
00:07:59.000 I'm doing well.
00:08:01.000 I just don't know.
00:08:01.000 I don't know.
00:08:03.000 They're going to just get rid of this guy.
00:08:03.000 I don't know.
00:08:06.000 Riveting analysis.
00:08:06.000 I know.
00:08:07.000 I don't know!
00:08:09.000 I want to believe!
00:08:10.000 You want to stay with him?
00:08:11.000 Is that your final?
00:08:11.000 You're going to stay with him?
00:08:12.000 I don't know?
00:08:13.000 Wow.
00:08:13.000 I do know.
00:08:14.000 How about this?
00:08:15.000 He's a Republican.
00:08:15.000 He's been a Republican the entire time.
00:08:17.000 It was a deep fake to get elected.
00:08:18.000 Really?
00:08:19.000 There you go.
00:08:19.000 You also just showed that you don't know what deep fake means.
00:08:21.000 Dang it!
00:08:22.000 When you hear this in third chair, he brings a smile to all of our faces when he's here.
00:08:26.000 Turns up the vibe.
00:08:27.000 Eh, sorta.
00:08:28.000 Thursday, October 19th, he'll be at Summit City Comedy Club in Fort Wayne, Indiana.
00:08:32.000 Gross.
00:08:33.000 Thank you for your service.
00:08:35.000 Josh underscore Firestein, how are you, sir?
00:08:37.000 Good, good.
00:08:38.000 Fort Wayne's not gross.
00:08:39.000 Yeah, it is.
00:08:42.000 I've been there before and it just reminds me of a permanent fairgrounds.
00:08:45.000 Does it?
00:08:45.000 Yes.
00:08:47.000 After the rides have left.
00:08:48.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:08:49.000 It's just trash in trash cans.
00:08:51.000 Just the city of carnies.
00:08:53.000 Come see me, guys.
00:08:55.000 We'll play Knock Over the Clowns together.
00:08:56.000 Yes, exactly.
00:08:57.000 You know they used to have actual .22 rifles at those fairs?
00:09:01.000 Yeah.
00:09:01.000 Kids, they would do Target with .22.
00:09:02.000 Yeah, some of them still do.
00:09:04.000 I was at the fair this weekend in Washington.
00:09:06.000 Washington State Fair Night.
00:09:07.000 Got to shoot a crossbow for a chance for a giant tiger.
00:09:09.000 I didn't win it.
00:09:10.000 You didn't win the Tiger?
00:09:11.000 No, no, no.
00:09:12.000 You shot a crossbow?
00:09:14.000 I shot a crossbow.
00:09:14.000 It's almost real, too.
00:09:15.000 Wow, good for you.
00:09:17.000 I played a game this weekend where they have these throwing axes, but they're safe so they're plastic, that you can get at Costco.
00:09:23.000 And I'm fantastic at it.
00:09:24.000 I'm like, wow, this is an entirely useless skill.
00:09:27.000 I spent all weekend, I was like, if only I did this with darts or pool, what am I going to tell people?
00:09:31.000 I'm really good at the fake plastic axe throwing.
00:09:34.000 You shouldn't tell people that.
00:09:36.000 But it's a fun game.
00:09:38.000 I'm glad I didn't do the real ones, those things can bounce back.
00:09:40.000 And by the way, I don't know, this show's going to go off the rails, I have a hunch today, so if at any point you're watching on YouTube, first off, hit the like button, but if you see this while you're watching on YouTube, Head on over and watch it at Rumble, who, by the way, are under attack from the official UK government right now.
00:09:57.000 They've been short sold.
00:09:59.000 Boy.
00:09:59.000 Hey, they go after the top creators at Rumble, right?
00:10:02.000 You go after Andrew Tate, go after ourselves, right?
00:10:04.000 The hit pieces.
00:10:05.000 Then you have Russell Brand.
00:10:06.000 And then they go after the CEO of Rumble themselves.
00:10:08.000 It's almost like it's coordinated.
00:10:10.000 It really seems like that.
00:10:12.000 By the way, a lot of institutional money going into Rumble right now, so that should tell you something.
00:10:15.000 Somebody may be just driving the price down so they can buy it on the cheap.
00:10:18.000 You mean going into short selling Rumble?
00:10:19.000 No.
00:10:20.000 I mean actually going into buying the stock of Rumble right now.
00:10:24.000 So, interesting plays going on here.
00:10:26.000 It's not just the market.
00:10:28.000 No.
00:10:28.000 This is not free enterprise.
00:10:29.000 No.
00:10:30.000 So, all right, let's go, before anything else, let's go to this, this is, do we have the lukewarm?
00:10:34.000 Yeah.
00:10:35.000 This is, it's a TikToker on a feminist podcast.
00:10:40.000 Oh, jeez.
00:10:41.000 I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
00:10:42.000 Why?
00:10:43.000 It's that phrase, TikToker, feminist podcast.
00:10:49.000 That's my favorite kind of TikToker.
00:10:51.000 Here they are making the claim that we need to stop fearing fatness in the lukewarm take of the week.
00:11:03.000 So many of us just absolute dread and fear the possibility of looking fat.
00:11:08.000 Like, what about this?
00:11:09.000 Like, what if it was okay to have our gut, like, come out a little bit?
00:11:14.000 No, I love that.
00:11:15.000 What if?
00:11:15.000 Like, guts, like, I know they're, like, pretty hot, but what if, what if we didn't fear fatness the way we do?
00:11:22.000 Oh, please stop!
00:11:23.000 Stop, stop, this is stupid!
00:11:25.000 🎵 Outro Music 🎵 Ah, you know what?
00:11:43.000 A BMI of 42 is just physically unattractive to me.
00:11:46.000 You're fat-phobic.
00:11:48.000 How do you get over the phobia?
00:11:49.000 Is it contact therapy?
00:11:50.000 Like with me with a spider where I have to... Her muffin top!
00:11:54.000 It's the most ridiculous shit!
00:11:57.000 No!
00:11:57.000 No!
00:11:58.000 What you should fear is your heart giving up on you!
00:12:01.000 It's trying.
00:12:04.000 And by the way, can I just say, your gut sticking out a little bit was a long time ago.
00:12:08.000 Yes.
00:12:08.000 I don't know if you're advocating for other people.
00:12:10.000 I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just saying you're not describing the situation accurately and that's not fair.
00:12:14.000 Yes.
00:12:15.000 Your gut requires a crossing guard to redirect traffic.
00:12:18.000 Just stop.
00:12:22.000 What, are you afraid of it?
00:12:23.000 She can't move her arms like that!
00:12:27.000 It's more like... I'm afraid of being smothered.
00:12:30.000 If you can't get over it by seeing it, you know, like if you see a monster in the movies, and you're like, oh, this is terrifying, and then you finally see, for example, Leprechaun, and you're like, You're like, let's not scare anymore.
00:12:41.000 Then, okay, it's a fear.
00:12:42.000 It's an irrational fear.
00:12:43.000 You can get over it.
00:12:45.000 If you don't like something and you see it and it still grosses you out, it means it's not a fear.
00:12:50.000 It means it's rational.
00:12:51.000 It means like, oh, hold on a second.
00:12:52.000 That's not even subcutaneous fat.
00:12:54.000 That's visceral.
00:12:54.000 That's surrounding your organs.
00:12:56.000 Your body's trying to tell you something, namely that you're dying.
00:13:02.000 I was at the fair this weekend too.
00:13:04.000 I promise you zero fat chicks are afraid of showing their belly.
00:13:07.000 Zero!
00:13:11.000 They're proud of it, dude.
00:13:12.000 It's just, everything is a fear.
00:13:13.000 It's a way of shutting down doubt.
00:13:15.000 Oh, it's fear.
00:13:16.000 Hold on a second, hold on, hold on.
00:13:17.000 Black Lives Matter, I don't like the fact that, you know, billions of dollars, oh yeah, it's just hate.
00:13:21.000 Everything they disagree with is hate or fear.
00:13:24.000 And then they have a bunch of yes men, women, nose rings, Z, like, mmm, I love that.
00:13:30.000 Do you?
00:13:31.000 Do you love it?
00:13:32.000 Do you actually love it?
00:13:34.000 Do you love it?
00:13:34.000 And by the way, find me one.
00:13:37.000 One male sex symbol.
00:13:39.000 Who's fat?
00:13:40.000 Now don't say, Chris Farley, don't say, they had to be immensely talented.
00:13:44.000 There are no fat pride male models!
00:13:47.000 Because we know that women aren't going to think we're beautiful.
00:13:50.000 And just here's the ultimate point here.
00:13:52.000 Young ladies, don't, don't listen to these amoebas.
00:13:56.000 Okay?
00:13:56.000 You're not going to live a happier life.
00:13:59.000 You're going to live a shorter life.
00:14:00.000 You'll die young and you'll live a lonely life and an unhealthy life riddled with health problems.
00:14:05.000 It's not a phobia.
00:14:06.000 Your doctor is not afraid of you getting fat.
00:14:12.000 He's concerned.
00:14:13.000 Yeah.
00:14:14.000 He's got too many fat customers.
00:14:17.000 Patience.
00:14:17.000 Sorry.
00:14:17.000 Patience.
00:14:18.000 What do you think a doctor does with someone like this who walks in like, all right, uh, sex?
00:14:22.000 Well, I'm non-binary.
00:14:24.000 Figures.
00:14:25.000 Yeah.
00:14:25.000 Well, look, it seems like maybe you could cut back on that.
00:14:27.000 Are you afraid of my fat?
00:14:29.000 You know what?
00:14:29.000 Just whatever.
00:14:30.000 Do whatever you want.
00:14:31.000 You know what?
00:14:32.000 Seems like it's working well.
00:14:33.000 Go for it.
00:14:36.000 Eat 20 and call me in the morning.
00:14:38.000 Or don't.
00:14:39.000 I don't care.
00:14:42.000 They want you fat, dumb, doped, and broke.
00:14:46.000 Just to be clear.
00:14:46.000 Who's they?
00:14:47.000 I mean people in charge who want a completely placid society.
00:14:51.000 Which brings us to, at this point, of course, the man.
00:14:55.000 He's been at every mass shooting.
00:14:57.000 Every.
00:14:58.000 He's been calling black men boy, and now his outreach for black voters has reached another level.
00:15:03.000 This brings us to This Week in Biden.
00:15:05.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.
00:15:09.000 Two of the great artists of our time representing the groundbreaking legacy of hip-hop in America, LLJ Cool J. By the way, that boy's got, he's got, man's got biceps bigger than my thighs.
00:15:25.000 I think he's... And MC Light, both of you, thank you.
00:15:31.000 Because they both have the light off, On the mic, you know you're all here to listen to the new edition.
00:15:38.000 Mike Bivens, 40 years producing music that lifts our souls.
00:15:42.000 After every mass shooting, we hear a simple message.
00:15:44.000 The same message all over the country.
00:15:46.000 I've been to every mass shooting.
00:15:48.000 If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black.
00:15:53.000 He's been to every mass shooting?
00:15:56.000 Have you been to every initiation for the Van Buren boys?
00:16:00.000 I'm not buying it.
00:16:01.000 By the way, who the hell is MC Light?
00:16:03.000 Is that a real... I mean, that's a real person, I know, but... He mixed up MC Hammer and Gordon Lightfoot.
00:16:08.000 Well, he did say, LLJ Cool J. You know?
00:16:12.000 Man.
00:16:12.000 She was, like, the first female rapper to have, like, a solo album go... MC Light.
00:16:16.000 Something.
00:16:16.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:16:17.000 But I didn't know who she was.
00:16:18.000 I had to look her up.
00:16:18.000 Yeah, I know.
00:16:19.000 Exactly.
00:16:19.000 But I don't think that's who he was talking about.
00:16:20.000 Yeah.
00:16:21.000 No, I don't think so either.
00:16:22.000 I don't think he has a clue.
00:16:23.000 No.
00:16:25.000 Has bigger biceps than my thighs.
00:16:26.000 That's not hard to do.
00:16:27.000 Your thighs are the size of E.T.' 's, okay?
00:16:31.000 We've seen him on a bike.
00:16:32.000 I've been in every mass shooting.
00:16:34.000 By the way, again, the vast majority of mass shootings are gang violence, gang on gang violence.
00:16:38.000 Just like when they try to say, oh, it's the number one killer of children.
00:16:41.000 No, no, no.
00:16:41.000 If you eliminate, actually, 15 to 19 year olds, again, who are in gangs, largely people in inner city areas, the number one killer of children, I mean, above guns, toasters.
00:16:53.000 By the way, I thought his quote of calling a grown black man boy was going to be from the 80s.
00:16:58.000 Yeah.
00:16:58.000 And it's not.
00:16:59.000 It was from that.
00:16:59.000 I was like, did you just say that, boy?
00:17:01.000 And I'm like, okay, you just can't get the racism out of Joe Biden.
00:17:04.000 Come on, come on down here, boy.
00:17:06.000 You gonna vote for me, boy?
00:17:10.000 What?
00:17:11.000 Come on, Rude Boy, boy, can I get it up?
00:17:13.000 What?
00:17:15.000 He's just so bad.
00:17:21.000 What should Joe Biden's rapper name be?
00:17:23.000 Comment below.
00:17:24.000 I think MC shits his pants.
00:17:27.000 That's exactly what I was thinking.
00:17:28.000 We're in mind meld.
00:17:31.000 Do you have anything you can think of?
00:17:33.000 Bedazzled Biden?
00:17:34.000 I don't know.
00:17:35.000 MC Drops a Deuce?
00:17:36.000 Yeah, MC Drops a Deuce.
00:17:39.000 Alright, let's go on now to... Lil Snooze?
00:17:42.000 Yeah.
00:17:43.000 Sorry.
00:17:44.000 That's good.
00:17:45.000 It's Lil Snooze X. Sometimes it takes a few seconds, sorry.
00:17:50.000 Instead of selling sneakers with blood in them, he just constantly walks around with a blood bag transfusion.
00:17:57.000 Like Mad Max.
00:17:57.000 He has a blood person on his car.
00:18:00.000 It's just a guy with his IV and I'm just...
00:18:03.000 You know, you wonder, where's the left?
00:18:06.000 Remember, it was a comedic witch hunt when George Bush was president, then when Donald Trump was president.
00:18:10.000 No one out there, really?
00:18:11.000 I mean, I know you have people who are kind of on the right, and you have that sort of L.A.
00:18:14.000 podcast scene from Joe Rogan, but, like, the billboarders of the world, is there nothing?
00:18:19.000 Dude, he said he was there at every mass shooting, right?
00:18:23.000 Like, someone has to take him aside and just tell him that, like, maybe you're not saying what it is that you think you're saying.
00:18:29.000 Shut the fuck up, dude.
00:18:31.000 That was great.
00:18:34.000 We should do an entire episode on comedy that they've missed.
00:18:37.000 Do impressions of the people for them.
00:18:39.000 Remember every single time George Bush spoke, it was every comedian.
00:18:43.000 It was like a hack-off.
00:18:44.000 I feel like there's even more to make fun of now.
00:18:46.000 Yeah, of course.
00:18:46.000 Than there was back then.
00:18:47.000 And they just don't really touch on it.
00:18:48.000 Like, I guess he's not the best president, but he's better than the other guy.
00:18:51.000 No, he's not!
00:18:52.000 No he's not.
00:18:52.000 Hit the like button if you don't think that this man is better than the other guy.
00:18:57.000 Any other guy.
00:18:58.000 By the way, the other guy we're talking about is the guy who created the best economy that we have experienced in our lifetimes period, bar none, not even close.
00:19:05.000 Even though you don't like his tweets!
00:19:07.000 Alright.
00:19:07.000 X's.
00:19:08.000 Posts.
00:19:08.000 Truth Social.
00:19:10.000 Well, that now.
00:19:11.000 That now.
00:19:11.000 He's actually gotten better on truth.
00:19:13.000 It's pretty funny.
00:19:13.000 It is pretty funny.
00:19:14.000 He's got good stuff.
00:19:14.000 Yeah, he is.
00:19:15.000 He's funny, too.
00:19:15.000 He does memes and stuff.
00:19:17.000 Speaking of memes, okay, so now the, uh, some people are going to want me to call them, like, Native Americans.
00:19:21.000 I'm not going to.
00:19:23.000 But we need to talk about this.
00:19:24.000 This is another example of white people actually co-opting culture.
00:19:29.000 What white people do is, when we talk about cultural appropriation, what we really experience from the left is offense appropriation.
00:19:37.000 Like, they decide to take offense for someone who isn't actually offended.
00:19:40.000 That's why we do this segment called Black and White on the Gray Issues.
00:19:42.000 You just didn't know you were mad yet!
00:19:44.000 That's all it is.
00:19:45.000 That's basically what they tell us.
00:19:45.000 It's just appropriation for what you should be.
00:19:48.000 Like, Taco Tuesday is offensive!
00:19:50.000 And then the Mexican immigrants who are selling tacos on Tuesday in a sombrero are like, Javi.
00:19:56.000 Put it on!
00:19:57.000 Put it on!
00:19:58.000 You're scaring my customers!
00:19:59.000 Taco Tuesday!
00:20:01.000 Arriba!
00:20:01.000 Arriba!
00:20:02.000 Shut up!
00:20:06.000 Have you been to a Chinese restaurant?
00:20:08.000 Have you seen the decor?
00:20:11.000 They don't care!
00:20:12.000 So this goes to Native Americans.
00:20:14.000 White liberals, they stole this piece of Native American culture, and now the Native Americans are fighting to get it back.
00:20:19.000 Indians.
00:20:19.000 Redskins, as they so don't mind being called, as we now know.
00:20:23.000 So the Native American Guardians Association, you may have heard of this story last week, but there's an update here.
00:20:27.000 They actually filed a defamation lawsuit yesterday against the Washington Commanders for quote, delegitimizing the group and its efforts to restore the team's name back to Redskins.
00:20:38.000 So just to be clear, the name was Redskins.
00:20:41.000 Then white people said it was offensive.
00:20:42.000 They demanded it be changed.
00:20:44.000 It never actually came from the Native Americans themselves, and now they're saying that's actually offensive because you're removing something that we actually thought kind of made us look cool.
00:20:53.000 Here's a clip.
00:20:54.000 Now what do you want from this lawsuit exactly?
00:20:57.000 Well, we want monetary damages for the comments that the commander's employee made regarding Naga.
00:21:03.000 He called them a fake group to seize and take a box holder.
00:21:08.000 Where do things stand with your position on the name change and reversing the name back to the Redskins?
00:21:16.000 Well, I think it should be changed back to the Redskins.
00:21:18.000 You know, the logo on the Redskins helmet is an actual person.
00:21:22.000 It's Chief Whitecaff.
00:21:24.000 And so every time they go out on that field, they were honoring Chief Whitecaff.
00:21:28.000 And they were battling on the football field with the same honor and integrity and courage.
00:21:34.000 And they should continue to honor that.
00:21:37.000 And just to be clear, like, just so you know, let me skip ahead a little bit.
00:21:40.000 This is something they would do with Native Americans, right?
00:21:43.000 Redskins came from Native Americans.
00:21:44.000 They would associate some notable body part or some notable action, then they would often add a color.
00:21:50.000 Like, white calf.
00:21:51.000 Have you seen his calves?
00:21:54.000 They look like they're cut from diamonds.
00:21:57.000 He's got Mike Menster calves.
00:21:59.000 We'll call them white calves.
00:22:01.000 He never goes tanning.
00:22:02.000 Oh, yes!
00:22:06.000 Blue single dad!
00:22:08.000 He drinks a lot, he gets blue!
00:22:12.000 Red Nose Pops!
00:22:13.000 How about that?
00:22:14.000 So the history of the Redskins name, to give it, it was in 1769, there was a prominent tribal leader, Chief Mosquito.
00:22:19.000 Again, these are the names they would use.
00:22:21.000 Chief Mosquito.
00:22:22.000 He referred to Native Americans as Redskins.
00:22:25.000 There you go!
00:22:26.000 And tribal members, they've even been participating in the Washington Redskins, their celebrations honoring Native Americans for a very, very long time.
00:22:34.000 90% of Native Americans are not offended by the name Redskins. 90%!
00:22:37.000 You can't find 90% of people to agree on anything.
00:22:40.000 You can't find 90% of people in the Democratic Party to agree on sex changes for minors, though you're pretty close.
00:22:47.000 So what he was referring to is, the NAGA lawyer, that's the acronym here, not to be confused, is referring to a text message from a commander's representatives to a luxury box season ticket holder and it said, you understand that the people, the NAGA, the North American group, that started this petition is a fake group.
00:23:04.000 Well, at 133,000 signatures, that's a mighty large fake group.
00:23:11.000 Meanwhile, Antifa is just an idea, it's not an organization.
00:23:17.000 They haven't had a problem with the idea of... This is white people, largely white women, who don't give a rat's ass about football.
00:23:23.000 And by the way, while we're determining what should be... I'm surprised they haven't taken issue with the Washington's basketball team, the Washington Grand Wizards.
00:23:29.000 That seems like it would be a layup when you actually think of... Yeah, I don't think that was... They're on fire!
00:23:40.000 NBA Jam reference.
00:23:41.000 With Burning Cross.
00:23:42.000 Good for you.
00:23:45.000 Don't let that jersey touch the ground!
00:23:49.000 Hit the like button, whether you're on Rumble or YouTube, it helps with the algorithm.
00:23:53.000 If you want to see the team change its name back to Redskins.
00:23:56.000 And look, this is just one other example in a long line of examples of the left being offended on behalf of other people.
00:24:02.000 Here's a silver lining.
00:24:04.000 Just don't play along with it.
00:24:06.000 Don't go, uh, uh, uh, African-American, uh, uh, uh, Latinx.
00:24:06.000 Yeah.
00:24:10.000 No, no, none of it.
00:24:11.000 Just continue with your life and guess what?
00:24:13.000 No one actually gets offended.
00:24:14.000 Except for white bitches with nose rings who think that you're afraid of fat.
00:24:20.000 I think you're afraid of it, so that's why they show it to you.
00:24:22.000 Yes, exactly.
00:24:23.000 Look at it!
00:24:26.000 You're afraid of heights?
00:24:28.000 Get up on top of the Sears Tower.
00:24:30.000 You're afraid of fat?
00:24:31.000 Here's Lizzo, playing Thomas Jefferson's flute with her ass.
00:24:36.000 Madison's Flute, admonish me.
00:24:38.000 Madison's Flute.
00:24:38.000 I think it was Madison's Flute, if I'm not mistaken.
00:24:40.000 Alright, do you have the admonish button, Tim?
00:24:42.000 Admonish me.
00:24:43.000 It was Madison's Flute, and she didn't play it with her ass.
00:24:47.000 That doesn't leave many options.
00:24:48.000 My daughter?
00:24:50.000 Oh no, the president.
00:24:51.000 So here's another example, right?
00:24:53.000 The left being offended.
00:24:54.000 So Latinx, only 3% of Hispanics use that term.
00:24:58.000 And by the way, I think that's very generous.
00:24:59.000 Only 3% of Hispanics even understand the term.
00:25:03.000 Yeah.
00:25:04.000 Just to be clear.
00:25:04.000 Dindersnat pissed me off when he was writing this story.
00:25:06.000 He goes, Latinx, and I'm like...
00:25:08.000 Most of the Hispanic people I know are very proud of their culture.
00:25:14.000 They don't like being called the wrong one.
00:25:16.000 They call a Mexican a Puerto Rican.
00:25:18.000 Look at Gay William.
00:25:19.000 He hates Puerto Rican.
00:25:22.000 Can't stand it.
00:25:23.000 Also, they come from Latin, the Romance languages.
00:25:25.000 They're gendered.
00:25:26.000 So these guys don't have a problem with it.
00:25:28.000 They're male, female.
00:25:29.000 They don't have another category, let alone 57.
00:25:31.000 Remember back in the day we used to joke about how Facebook had 57 possible genders?
00:25:36.000 Now it's well under the hundreds.
00:25:37.000 And the answer from the left to all of it is, yes.
00:25:41.000 That's it.
00:25:41.000 That's their only answer.
00:25:42.000 It's just, yes.
00:25:43.000 Okay, how about 97?
00:25:45.000 It's just like with BMI.
00:25:45.000 Good enough for me.
00:25:48.000 Oh, did you hear?
00:25:49.000 The new gender's dropped.
00:25:50.000 Oh, wow.
00:25:51.000 Yeah, who cares?
00:25:52.000 It's like an iOS update.
00:25:54.000 Yeah.
00:25:55.000 Gotta get one every year.
00:25:56.000 Yeah, and you hate your father.
00:25:59.000 Asian cultural appropriation was another one.
00:26:01.000 I think it was Asian!
00:26:03.000 Name that movie line, comment below.
00:26:04.000 I know it.
00:26:05.000 The mainstream freaked out when there was a supermodel, her name was Carly Cross, not to be confused with Chris Cross.
00:26:11.000 Closs.
00:26:12.000 Sorry, Carly Closs wore that kimono on a photo shoot.
00:26:12.000 Closs.
00:26:15.000 Okay, so of course, white people outraged.
00:26:18.000 The Japanese, and I know you're gonna say white, but you know, they prefer the term yellow.
00:26:23.000 They weren't offended at all when they saw foreigners wearing a kimono.
00:26:26.000 Here's proof.
00:26:27.000 Pissed.
00:26:27.000 Riding in the streets.
00:26:28.000 Kimono to come on the moon come to me. I think I'm gonna go To me
00:26:34.000 Pissed right to go back and sleep in opposite the room of husband
00:26:50.000 It's a messed up culture Japanese culture just to me I get it it's my sort of Western lens, but you know I do think
00:26:52.000 culture, Japanese culture, just to me, I get it, it's my sort of Western lens, but you know, I do
00:26:57.000 that It's silly in a lot of ways. It's also very racist if you
00:26:57.000 think that it's silly in a lot of ways. It's also very racist if you look at their tenant laws,
00:27:00.000 look at their tenant laws, but guess what they don't care They don't care about you wearing a kimono at least they've
00:27:01.000 but guess what? They don't care. They don't care about you wearing a kimono. At least they've
00:27:04.000 moved past that. Yeah. Well, a lot of these things are silly and we make fun of them,
00:27:04.000 moved past that yeah Well a lot of these things are silly and we make fun of
00:27:07.000 them But it actually distracts from like actually getting work
00:27:07.000 but it actually distracts from like actually getting work done in this space, right? You're
00:27:11.000 like, oh, we're offended by statues, so we have to take them down, even though we think George
00:27:15.000 Washington's probably a pretty swell fellow. We probably want to keep that one up for history
00:27:18.000 purposes at the very least. But then we changed, I think the mascot of the Indians changed from
00:27:22.000 Chief Wahoo to something else recently, the Cleveland Indians. Guardians. I would focus,
00:27:26.000 did it really? Yeah. They went Guardians as, oh, that's the dumbest name.
00:27:30.000 You should focus on playing baseball well first as a team.
00:27:34.000 Same thing with the Washington football team.
00:27:36.000 They're losing the culture, but this is a perfect example.
00:27:38.000 People say, oh, cancel culture.
00:27:39.000 It's accountability culture.
00:27:39.000 Do you have any idea how much money that costs the football team to change the stadium, to change the jerseys, to change the ads that go out there?
00:27:47.000 It's the same thing with You have any idea how much it costs for them to have to change a photo spread?
00:27:52.000 For them to have to change, I don't know, go back and retroactively change books?
00:27:56.000 Or if you look at Facebook, you look at YouTube, you have to change your content and the guidelines?
00:28:00.000 And just for us, we have to go back and change and re-upload videos because there are new rules.
00:28:04.000 So yeah, sure, they're losing the culture war.
00:28:07.000 The left is losing the culture war.
00:28:08.000 This is why when people say culture war, silliness, no, no, no.
00:28:11.000 Without culture, you cease to have a society.
00:28:13.000 That's why they want to destroy culture.
00:28:14.000 It's why they want to destroy the family.
00:28:15.000 They are losing, but it's a shakedown.
00:28:18.000 It costs you a bunch of money.
00:28:19.000 Now, this is something that's veiled, right?
00:28:21.000 Because people go along with it.
00:28:23.000 They're being complicit because they're being pressured by some shareholders or by some people on a board.
00:28:26.000 And then sometimes it's blatant, like people shaking down Rumble right now.
00:28:29.000 Yeah.
00:28:30.000 By the way, huge way to support Rumble, join Mug Club.
00:28:32.000 Mug Club is Rumble.

00:28:52.000 and it's all under one umbrella that is still part of rumble so
00:28:56.000 sometimes it's a blatant shakedown and then sometimes it's a shakedown with peer
00:28:59.000 pressure like sometimes you know you get a cigarette shoved in your mouth
00:29:03.000 and you're told to smoke whole pack like my dad did which is when I started
00:29:08.000 liking cigarettes And then sometimes it's the peer pressure of, if you're one of us, you'll take a smoke.
00:29:14.000 Or me and Mitch, you know, in Michigan, it's like, if you're one of us and they give you cools.
00:29:17.000 Ah.
00:29:18.000 Ew.
00:29:18.000 Whereas in Austin it's all American spirits because it's organic tobacco.
00:29:22.000 So they're losing, but the problem is they only lose once the truth comes out.
00:29:27.000 That's the reason for this show is that the truth can come out beforehand before you make a mistake, like changing an entire team to Redskins.
00:29:33.000 Sorry, from Redskins.
00:29:35.000 From Redskins.
00:29:36.000 Nobody cared.
00:29:38.000 I think we got suspended one time on YouTube because I said Redskins.
00:29:41.000 They don't mind the term!
00:29:43.000 Nobody cares!
00:29:45.000 Just be good at football, which you haven't been for a long time.
00:29:47.000 That's all anybody cares about.
00:29:48.000 But the people in power care.
00:29:50.000 The people who can leverage these companies care.
00:29:50.000 That's the problem.
00:29:52.000 The American people don't care.
00:29:53.000 And the Redskins themselves don't care.
00:29:55.000 They're too busy drinking Windex.
00:30:00.000 I don't know where's that girl that wore a kimono as a prom dress like a couple years back and tons of outrage on Twitter like dude it's just a prom dress.
00:30:08.000 We started this in 2015 that's why we started Cultural Appropriation Month every June because no one actually cares and the only people who cares are Media Matters or someone like that where they launched some hit piece.
00:30:17.000 Fine.
00:30:17.000 I have an idea.
00:30:18.000 You want to take your culture back?
00:30:19.000 You take every single bit of it back.
00:30:21.000 Give us democracy, free speech, and all of the Western values that have been fantastic that have shaped the world and made your life better back.
00:30:27.000 Yes.
00:30:28.000 Hey, I want my culture back.
00:30:30.000 The United States.
00:30:31.000 So how about this?
00:30:32.000 We're the greatest country in the world, we never lose a war, low taxes, First Amendment, Second Amendment, and men are stronger than women physically and women are better at rearing children.
00:30:40.000 There's the culture that I like here in this country.
00:30:42.000 Black, white, yellow, or redskins huffing paint.
00:30:46.000 Now, let's go on to a shitty culture.
00:30:49.000 What color paint?
00:30:50.000 Red!
00:30:51.000 Of course it's red, Josh!
00:30:53.000 Oh, it's white to paint their calves.
00:30:54.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:30:55.000 No, just one guy can do that.
00:30:56.000 Just one guy.
00:30:58.000 Oh, is that white calf?
00:30:59.000 No, that's Tope Brachialis.
00:31:01.000 He does hammer curls.
00:31:04.000 He beat out Chief White Claw.
00:31:05.000 The bicep is to supinate, but he has big forearms.
00:31:09.000 That's a bodybuilding redskin, I don't know.
00:31:13.000 The calves are the hardest place to add mass!
00:31:16.000 I'm sure they had one, you know they did.
00:31:21.000 I added mass to my calves.
00:31:23.000 How?
00:31:24.000 How?
00:31:25.000 Was it Cherokee volume training?
00:31:26.000 Yeah, they also had a vegetarian as well.
00:31:28.000 They're like, what's this guy?
00:31:29.000 Did you go with Iroquois high intensity?
00:31:32.000 It sounds like Native American My Pillow Guy.
00:31:34.000 You're gonna love my calf.
00:31:38.000 Alright, we make the best drums.
00:31:44.000 So speaking of crappy cultures, and by crappy I mean inferior.
00:31:50.000 Ukraine.
00:31:51.000 I think it's a crappy one.
00:31:52.000 I don't like it.
00:31:54.000 That's very corrupt.
00:31:56.000 Is it okay?
00:31:57.000 I think it's fair.
00:31:57.000 My opinion has never changed since the beginning of this.
00:32:00.000 It's one crappy country, Russia, fighting another crappy country, Ukraine, to act as though any of them are...
00:32:06.000 Exist in any world where they provide anything else to the world, aside from maybe some crops, is silly.
00:32:11.000 They're corrupt.
00:32:12.000 They can't be trusted.
00:32:13.000 They should just break- let's break off the pool queue, let them have tryouts.
00:32:16.000 I don't care anymore.
00:32:17.000 So if your government shuts down next week, right, which you're told is the end of the world, and it never is, however, A. B. Test this, right?
00:32:25.000 What rules for thee don't apply to me.
00:32:28.000 In this case, me is Ukraine.
00:32:29.000 You don't need to worry about Ukraine.
00:32:32.000 Your government will be shut down, but they'll still be getting all of the money that they want and ask for, funded by you.
00:32:39.000 The Department of Defense says aid to Ukraine will continue even if there's a government shutdown.
00:32:45.000 The decision was announced Thursday, the same day Ukrainian President Zelensky met President Biden in Washington.
00:32:51.000 Now this means training of Ukrainian fighters to pilot F-16 fighter jets will not be interrupted.
00:32:58.000 Ukraine is also scheduled to receive U.S.
00:33:00.000 Abrams tanks.
00:33:02.000 Thank God.
00:33:03.000 Can't we just send Stacey Abrams and be done with it?
00:33:06.000 She's a tank.
00:33:07.000 I don't know.
00:33:07.000 I don't know if they're fatphobic over there in Ukraine.
00:33:09.000 They could be.
00:33:10.000 No, no!
00:33:11.000 Don't want to do that.
00:33:11.000 Well, that's the purpose.
00:33:12.000 You scare them and you win.
00:33:13.000 Yeah, I guess.
00:33:14.000 It's an intimidation factor.
00:33:16.000 The good news, by the way, is Zelinsky, though, he's been earning the extra billions of dollars from us.
00:33:20.000 He's really been putting in that overtime.
00:33:22.000 ♪♪ The Ukrainian sense of humor is different.
00:33:31.000 A little bit.
00:33:32.000 That was supposed to be funny?
00:33:34.000 It was his wiener.
00:33:35.000 Oh!
00:33:35.000 Yeah.
00:33:37.000 Wiener.
00:33:38.000 Wiener piano.
00:33:39.000 So, here's the thing.
00:33:40.000 During government shutdowns, all military activities are supposed to stop unless it's a threat to, you know, national security.
00:33:46.000 Like in 2018, the Pentagon kept fighting ISIS.
00:33:49.000 Ah.
00:33:49.000 Which, that's understandable.
00:33:50.000 I get it.
00:33:51.000 You know, ISIS.
00:33:52.000 Bad people.
00:33:53.000 Death to the Western world entirely.
00:33:55.000 I don't know how much of a threat they are to us at that point, but the Pentagon kept fighting them.
00:33:59.000 And the Defense Secretary, by the way, has the authority to make that decision.
00:34:03.000 And this is one of those situations where I guess a threat to our national security is Ukraine.
00:34:08.000 This is the narrative that they want to set, just to be clear.
00:34:11.000 That if we don't help Ukraine, and if we don't fund them to the tune of 130-something billion dollars, our national security is at risk.
00:34:18.000 Because Russia, Russia, Russia.
00:34:19.000 And of course, you have people who are upset.
00:34:21.000 The average American taxpayer.
00:34:23.000 A lot of people are protesting.
00:34:25.000 Even ghosts are coming out of the woodwork.
00:34:26.000 Well, the cash stop's coming and it don't stop coming.
00:34:29.000 F*** all the rules, keep the war machine running.
00:34:31.000 Big guy covers up the plot for his son.
00:34:34.000 The crack in the hose make your head get dumb.
00:34:37.000 So here's the thing, we had that, and then, unfortunately, the man passed, and we were like, well, two weeks is enough time to... It wasn't mocking Smash Mouth, it was just, we were just like, meh, it'll maybe make people sad.
00:34:47.000 There's other guys in the band, dude.
00:34:49.000 We have so many things in the hopper that we just will never use.
00:34:53.000 So this comes now, just to be clear, in tandem with a 60... And by the way, we'll also... I don't know if you know this... Black Rock!
00:34:59.000 Black Rock's involved here.
00:35:00.000 They get a lot of the money.
00:35:01.000 That's always a lot of fun.
00:35:02.000 So this comes in tandem with a 60 Minutes report showing that American taxpayers are not just paying... Again, this isn't just military for Ukraine.
00:35:09.000 So in other words, in the United States, if there's a government shutdown, our military has the right to continue fighting for national security.
00:35:15.000 However, as it applies to Ukraine, it doesn't even necessarily need to be funding military activity.
00:35:21.000 Just salaries of people in Ukraine.
00:35:24.000 American taxpayers are financing more than just weapons.
00:35:28.000 We discovered the U.S.
00:35:29.000 government's buying seeds and fertilizer for Ukrainian farmers.
00:35:34.000 That's generous of us.
00:35:35.000 That dog has a paycheck.
00:35:36.000 Ukraine's first responders, all 57,000 of them.
00:35:41.000 Oh, great.
00:35:42.000 That includes the team that trains this rescue dog, named Joy, to comb through the wreckage of Russian strikes
00:35:49.000 looking for survivors.
00:35:51.000 That dog has a paycheck.
00:35:52.000 Yeah.
00:35:52.000 Yep, $9 million.
00:35:53.000 And the US also funds the divers, who we saw clearing unexploded ammunition
00:35:58.000 from the country's river.
00:36:00.000 That doesn't look like much of a river to me, by the way.
00:36:02.000 Just to be clear, in total, the United States has pledged $135 billion in aid to Ukraine.
00:36:10.000 $135 billion while you may be looking at a shutdown.
00:36:13.000 Here's how one Ukrainian lieutenant justifies all of said dollar-dollar bills.
00:36:18.000 Some Americans say we're very sympathetic to you Ukrainians, but we're going through tough times at home and we just can't afford to keep on supporting you.
00:36:28.000 Ukrainians Well, hold on a second.
00:36:32.000 Come on.
00:36:34.000 for your lives.
00:36:35.000 I believe and I hope that their lives cost much more than mine.
00:36:40.000 Much more than taxpayers' money.
00:36:43.000 Hold on a second.
00:36:44.000 Come on.
00:36:45.000 Do our lives?
00:36:47.000 This is what they do, right?
00:36:48.000 They do the same thing with gun control.
00:36:49.000 If it saves one life, but what if it takes hundreds of thousands of lives each year because of defensive uses of firearms?
00:36:54.000 I would hope Ukraine lives are worth more.
00:36:56.000 What about American lives?
00:36:57.000 There are plenty of Americans who are starving.
00:36:58.000 There are plenty of Americans who don't have homes.
00:37:00.000 There are plenty of Americans who are being kidnapped and being put permanently into sex trafficking, of course, as we know with the cartels and what's happening with the open border.
00:37:08.000 This is one of those talking points where it shuts it down, right?
00:37:12.000 Just like fatphobic.
00:37:13.000 Well, we bathe with other lives.
00:37:14.000 Oh, I guess I better not say anything because he invoked death.
00:37:18.000 Now to give you an idea, the United States, we have sent six times more than any European country with $135 billion.
00:37:25.000 So Germany is next with $23 billion, a lot less than $135 billion as far as what's totally pledged.
00:37:31.000 England, $15.2 billion.
00:37:33.000 France, $1.8 billion, who really just doesn't get to be a country anymore as far as I'm concerned.
00:37:38.000 And this makes you understand the context when you look at the NATO contributions.
00:37:43.000 We're all supposed to pay in at least 2% right of our GDP.
00:37:45.000 The United States, 3.5%.
00:37:48.000 England, 1.5%.
00:37:48.000 Germany is the next one, 2.2%.
00:37:49.000 Germany is the next one, 2.2%.
00:37:51.000 France, 2.01%.
00:37:54.000 So, this is the problem with the UN.
00:37:57.000 This is the problem with NATO.
00:37:58.000 This is the problem with this war.
00:37:59.000 When people say, we have to go and defend Ukraine, what they really mean is more money from the United States, please.
00:38:06.000 And you never get to stop paying taxes, but your government might shut down.
00:38:08.000 And then they can throw shade at the United States and say that we're imperialists and they hate all of our policies.
00:38:12.000 They hate what we're doing.
00:38:13.000 We're racist.
00:38:14.000 By the way, can you make sure that you keep funding this war, please, so that we don't get taken over?
00:38:17.000 We're the only reason you still exist, European Union.
00:38:20.000 I'm sorry.
00:38:21.000 All of those countries in Europe right now, there's a reason that NATO was formed.
00:38:24.000 There's a reason that you guys were scared crapless because you had 100 years of war from one particular part of that country right next to you, Russia, coming after you.
00:38:32.000 Maybe a little bit of gratitude is in order at this point.
00:38:35.000 Maybe carrying your own weight is a little bit in order at this point.
00:38:37.000 You think I should be grateful?
00:38:38.000 I think you should be down on your knees!
00:38:40.000 They should!
00:38:41.000 But not for that!
00:38:43.000 I'm doing this for nothing, you little sh... So, question for you.
00:38:46.000 Where do you think the money is really going?
00:38:48.000 Comment that below.
00:38:49.000 And hit like if you're sick of Europe free-riding off of America.
00:38:52.000 I don't like Europe.
00:38:54.000 That's why we left.
00:38:57.000 Now, according to a new CBS News report, American officials are now investigating four criminal cases involving non-military aid, and 170 Ukrainian government officials, including high-ranking military officers, have been charged in corruption cases so far this year for crimes like embezzlement and accepting bribes.
00:39:13.000 You'd think that might have something to do with Hunter Biden, but of course, who knows at this point.
00:39:17.000 170 government officials?
00:39:19.000 Wow.
00:39:21.000 I thought it read four at the beginning and then it was like, wait, you buried the lead.
00:39:24.000 It's a hundred and seventy officials.
00:39:27.000 Government officials.
00:39:28.000 Now imagine where those branches go out.
00:39:30.000 Imagine where those capillaries.
00:39:31.000 How many businesses do you think those governments are involved with?
00:39:35.000 And who's set to benefit from all of this, just to be clear?
00:39:38.000 BlackRock, they're setting up a bank to finance Ukraine's reconstruction.
00:39:42.000 McKinsey, JP Morgan are also involved in the project.
00:39:44.000 That means consulting, which means, yeah, toss a few billion more dollars my way.
00:39:47.000 It's free!
00:39:48.000 At the goodness of their hearts.
00:39:49.000 This is pro bono, right, JP Chase?
00:39:50.000 Right.
00:39:51.000 Yes.
00:39:52.000 It's pro bono.
00:39:53.000 BlackRock, the same people buying up single-family homes here in the United States who Elizabeth Warren, Mrs. Socialist herself, said, BlackRock's too big to fail, so again, you'll never stop paying taxes, but they'll receive a bailout if they ever go under, if there's a housing market crash, for example, that they've created, and they're the ones who stand to gain from the perpetual war machine.
00:40:09.000 It's not that Americans are against a fight.
00:40:11.000 Americans love Patton.
00:40:13.000 Americans love MacArthur for a reason.
00:40:14.000 Americans love George Washington.
00:40:16.000 There has to be a fight that is righteous.
00:40:18.000 This is not a righteous fight because there are no righteous people involved and it is not our job.
00:40:23.000 Fighting the British, obviously that's something that made sense.
00:40:25.000 We wanted to have a country.
00:40:26.000 Tea in the harbor was kind of a big deal.
00:40:28.000 If you look at World War II, you understand at that point Pearl Harbor, that was the catalyst for us getting involved.
00:40:33.000 We believe in a fight.
00:40:35.000 There's no reason For us to be involved in this fight.
00:40:38.000 And let's also go through the math here.
00:40:40.000 $135 billion that we've pledged to Ukraine.
00:40:41.000 What could we do with it?
00:40:42.000 We could build six border walls.
00:40:44.000 We could fix Flint's water system.
00:40:47.000 215 times over.
00:40:49.000 We could give every single homeless vet $2 million in cash.
00:40:52.000 And by the way, I'm not saying that we do these things.
00:40:53.000 I'm just giving you some context.
00:40:54.000 Well, you could do.
00:40:55.000 We could provide a, I mean I know he didn't visit for a couple of weeks, but we could provide an actual $50 million check to every family in Maui.
00:41:04.000 2,700 households would be eligible.
00:41:06.000 So that's right there, just what you could do with this $135 billion.
00:41:09.000 I think this is a good time to jump in.
00:41:12.000 Sam, how long have you been sitting there?
00:41:15.000 We're in the middle of a show.
00:41:16.000 Come on Sam, what's the deal?
00:41:17.000 Come on.
00:41:18.000 Well, as you know, the IRS has been hiring new agents at an alarming rate.
00:41:22.000 Yeah, okay, Sam, what does this have to do with anything?
00:41:24.000 Why are you in the studio?
00:41:25.000 As your HR representative, it's my duty to look out for you all.
00:41:30.000 If any of your viewers owe back taxes or have unfiled returns, Tax Network USA can help you out.
00:41:37.000 Even if you haven't filed for 10 years.
00:41:39.000 Sam, look, I noticed that you're good with state capitals, but you're not the most literate of the tribe.
00:41:45.000 Is this an ad?
00:41:46.000 Are you reading an ad?
00:41:47.000 Yes, it is.
00:41:47.000 Oh my gosh.
00:41:48.000 Why are you doing an ad?
00:41:49.000 I'm the one who's supposed to do ads here on the show.
00:41:51.000 Well, because I get commission for it.
00:41:53.000 You're getting commission.
00:41:54.000 Okay, that makes sense.
00:41:55.000 But that's not the important thing.
00:41:56.000 That is the important thing for you.
00:41:57.000 The important thing is, as I was saying, the IRS is well on their way to hiring their target 87,000 new agents.
00:42:03.000 Yeah, we know.
00:42:04.000 Get all the help you can get.
00:42:06.000 They've already saved their clients a billion dollars in back taxes, and Tax Network USA also offers bookkeeping.
00:42:11.000 Stephen, that's great, isn't it?
00:42:12.000 Yes, it is.
00:42:13.000 It is great, Sam.
00:42:14.000 Thank you.
00:42:14.000 Are you done?
00:42:15.000 Are you done, Sam?
00:42:15.000 I'm done.
00:42:16.000 Okay, so what I was saying... Go to TaxNetworkUSA.com slash Crowder.
00:42:20.000 Okay, Sam, we get it.
00:42:21.000 All right, Sam, we get it.
00:42:22.000 Be sure to use the slash Crowder so I can get my commission.
00:42:25.000 Toolman, can you please bring up the overlay?
00:42:27.000 Okay, all right.
00:42:27.000 That's enough, Sam.
00:42:28.000 Get out.
00:42:29.000 Get out.
00:42:30.000 Geez, the nerve.
00:42:31.000 Slash Crowder, please!
00:42:32.000 No, we've got it.
00:42:32.000 Okay, that's right.
00:42:33.000 TaxNetworkUSA.com slash Crowder.
00:42:34.000 Look, look, the guy's got a lot of nerve, but it is enough.
00:42:35.000 Yeah, you know what?
00:42:36.000 But I get the commission.
00:42:37.000 That's not supposed to go to Sam.
00:42:38.000 He does make a good point, though, Joe.
00:42:39.000 Can we check him out after the show?
00:42:40.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:42:41.000 I already got enough.
00:42:41.000 I haven't paid taxes in years.
00:42:43.000 Really?
00:42:44.000 You shouldn't admit that on air.
00:42:47.000 Allegedly.
00:42:48.000 I don't want to fund Ukraine.
00:42:52.000 This seems like it's right up Gerald's wheelhouse right here.
00:42:55.000 Why is it up my wheelhouse?
00:42:56.000 What is the URL just so people know?
00:42:59.000 It's taxnetworkusa.com.
00:43:02.000 They're pretty good at saving people money, I will say.
00:43:04.000 They called us and they're like, hey, here's this thing that you missed.
00:43:07.000 We're like, oh, wow.
00:43:08.000 That's a dinner out.
00:43:09.000 Whoopsies.
00:43:11.000 That's several dinners for all of the Ukrainian first responders out.
00:43:14.000 Yes.
00:43:15.000 So, Democratic mayor.
00:43:16.000 Democratic mayor in Dallas actually flipped parties.
00:43:19.000 He did.
00:43:20.000 His name is Eric Johnson, and he switched officially, right?
00:43:25.000 Just got re-elected, I think, at the end of last year.
00:43:27.000 And just to be clear, again, my question to you is, do you immediately, do your eyebrows go up and go, ah, hold on a second.
00:43:33.000 I don't trust this guy.
00:43:35.000 Anytime somebody flips from being a Democrat to a Republican, I'm like, eh, were you really?
00:43:39.000 I need to look at your policies and wonder why you were a Democrat.
00:43:42.000 That's a big bridge to cross.
00:43:44.000 I don't know how people do that well.
00:43:46.000 So we'll see if this guy, but he did switch his affiliation and it's caused quite a stir because Dallas, big blue city, big red state.
00:43:52.000 Alright, we have a clip.
00:43:54.000 Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson says he is switching parties, making the city of Dallas the largest in the country run by a Republican.
00:44:01.000 Fox Sports' Blake Hanson live tonight with more on what the changes will mean.
00:44:04.000 Oh boy!
00:44:05.000 And some reaction to Blake.
00:44:08.000 As Stephen making the switch, Mayor Johnson said he understands the decision will surprise many, but it is not a shock to many who closely follow politics.
00:44:16.000 I don't wear a tie because I think my suit suffices.
00:44:20.000 I don't know.
00:44:22.000 We actually have a clip, by the way, of the press conference that he actually held.
00:44:25.000 Oh.
00:44:26.000 I'm not gay no more!
00:44:27.000 I am delivered!
00:44:30.000 Well, see, that makes me like him more.
00:44:31.000 Absolutely.
00:44:32.000 Very fervent.
00:44:32.000 Yeah.
00:44:33.000 Fantastic.
00:44:35.000 Even hit the drum on that.
00:44:38.000 So the Texas Democratic Party didn't take the news well.
00:44:40.000 They said, given his long-standing affinity with Republican leaders and ideology, like when he cozied up with long-time podcast host Ted Cruz at his inauguration this year.
00:44:51.000 I don't know.
00:44:52.000 I don't think that podcast host is his primary title.
00:44:54.000 His top kind of credit?
00:44:56.000 Maybe senator?
00:44:57.000 Moonlighting as a senator.
00:44:58.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:44:59.000 They said, this announcement is neither surprising nor unwelcome.
00:45:03.000 In other words, that's... You can't fire me.
00:45:08.000 I quit.
00:45:09.000 Yeah, we didn't want you anyway.
00:45:11.000 We didn't want you anyway.
00:45:12.000 That's why we supported you in your last race.
00:45:14.000 Good riddance.
00:45:16.000 Well, you're still mayor and now you're Republican?
00:45:18.000 Son of a bitch.
00:45:19.000 We didn't think this through.
00:45:21.000 You could just switch.
00:45:22.000 Yeah, you could just switch?
00:45:23.000 Apparently so.
00:45:24.000 You're like, use their money to get elected.
00:45:26.000 Isn't there a rule against that?
00:45:29.000 You know what, I need to run for office, collect all of the Soros money, and then just switch.
00:45:34.000 Well, I think it's going to be hard to convince him that you're on their team now.
00:45:37.000 I'll just, what I'll do is I'll go in and I'll say I was living a lie, I'm actually a woman.
00:45:41.000 Oh!
00:45:42.000 And when they say, well there's all this evidence that you're not, I'll say that was all a cry for help, right?
00:45:45.000 That was clearly a cry for help.
00:45:46.000 Not true at all.
00:45:47.000 I was repressed.
00:45:47.000 None of this.
00:45:48.000 I'm actually a woman, and I would like to run for Senate as a woman, and I would like some money.
00:45:53.000 And Sir also will say, and I'll say, oh, thank you.
00:45:56.000 And then I'll become... You can't argue, would you?
00:45:59.000 I'll just take all his money.
00:46:01.000 You have to accept it.
00:46:02.000 I mean, I think you're in a good position for this, but... Comment below if you guys ever want me to run for office.
00:46:07.000 The only way I would ever run for office is if it was a total kamikaze run.
00:46:10.000 It's gotta be a gag.
00:46:11.000 Where they bring up every like, hey, did you in fact say this?
00:46:13.000 I'll go, I don't know, sounds like me.
00:46:16.000 Running for Mayor of McCheeseville.
00:46:18.000 Yes!
00:46:20.000 Great.
00:46:21.000 So he wrote in the Wall Street Journal, he explained why he switched parties and he made some claims about cities.
00:46:27.000 Now he wants to run Dallas differently.
00:46:28.000 So we'll actually go through this now.
00:46:29.000 We'll make all the references publicly available with our sort of claims in his article and the truth.
00:46:34.000 So here's a claim.
00:46:35.000 that he made. He said that Democrat leaders have failed to keep cities safe. And one of the quotes
00:46:40.000 is he said mayors and other local elected officials have failed to make public safety a priority.
00:46:46.000 How dare he? And this this is good because he's actually writing in his op-ed all of the reasons,
00:46:51.000 right, reasons that can be fact-checked. So I think that's a step in the right direction.
00:46:54.000 I agree.
00:46:55.000 And the truth...
00:46:55.000 That's actually right.
00:46:59.000 That is correct.
00:47:00.000 Yes, it is correct.
00:47:01.000 Yeah, violent crime.
00:47:02.000 Normally you see it switched, but no, no, in this case he's just right.
00:47:05.000 Violent crime has been ravaging the big cities of America now.
00:47:09.000 Tenderloin.
00:47:09.000 police say there were 75 shootings across the Father's Day and Juneteenth
00:47:14.000 weekend 13 people were killed. The violence happened on almost every side
00:47:20.000 of town including the Bucktown neighborhood. This is just normal we see
00:47:23.000 this stuff all the time. I've become so accustomed to it.
00:47:27.000 Just this weekend John caught a shooting on one of the many security cameras he
00:47:33.000 has set up outside his home.
00:47:36.000 In it, you can see a man shooting a gun multiple times in the middle of an intersection as people and cars go by.
00:47:45.000 There's people living in their cars, trash all over the place, needles everywhere.
00:47:50.000 Alarming numbers from the Seattle Police Department.
00:47:53.000 2022, the highest rate of crime on city record in 15 years.
00:47:57.000 Do you feel safe in Seattle?
00:47:58.000 No.
00:47:59.000 And why is that?
00:48:00.000 There's just too much going on on the streets.
00:48:03.000 Naked bike rides.
00:48:04.000 No, he wants no seats.
00:48:07.000 Tandem bikes, no seats.
00:48:08.000 That's the solution.
00:48:10.000 Everyone knows the solution to city crime is tandem bikes with no seats.
00:48:14.000 So to give you an idea, look, if leftist policies worked in big cities, they would be utopia. I started doing sort of super videos
00:48:21.000 on location videos back in 2010 where I did Detroit and ruins and I covered A to Z
00:48:25.000 everything that happened in Detroit was the wealthiest city in the country in the 1950s and it
00:48:30.000 didn't accidentally become a crap hole that was because of far-left government intervention
00:48:34.000 and by the way a ton of money pumping into it. So violent crime in cities
00:48:37.000 from 21 to 2022. New York City was up 22 percent. Chicago was up 41 percent. Austin in 2021
00:48:44.000 experienced the highest murder rate in decades. Of course, the liberal mayor there, who by the way,
00:48:48.000 called the mayor of San Francisco to determine how to deal with his homeless problem. He was
00:48:52.000 on the Joe Rogan show to talk about that.
00:48:54.000 No, no, no, no, no. How do I make it worse? Yeah, exactly.
00:48:57.000 Please tell me.
00:48:59.000 It's like the commander's calling the guardians for advice.
00:49:02.000 Yeah. I don't understand the sports reference.
00:49:03.000 Alright.
00:49:04.000 I assume they're bad, right?
00:49:07.000 Well, they're both...
00:49:08.000 Oh, okay, now I remember.
00:49:12.000 Redskins.
00:49:13.000 That's the memory trigger.
00:49:14.000 Redskins, yes, yes.
00:49:15.000 So, in Austin, though, here's the thing.
00:49:17.000 So, highest murder rate, and you'll say, yeah, but then it went down, sure, in 2023, after state troopers were brought in.
00:49:23.000 So that means Abbott had to be involved, and he's a wheelchair guy.
00:49:27.000 Now, violent crime in Dallas is actually down, which kind of surprised me.
00:49:33.000 So do you think that American cities can be saved? You know, you can comment below. I don't know that
00:49:37.000 the idea of major cities really functions today as they used to. I mean, I think you'll probably
00:49:42.000 have more mid-sized cities. I don't know. It seems like a lot of people out there, even if you want
00:49:46.000 to be in this, you don't want to really be in New York or Chicago or LA anymore. It seems like
00:49:50.000 cities, you have cities like Grand Rapids, Austin at one point in time. But, you know, there are
00:49:55.000 places in Iowa, I guess, that people are saying, yeah, it's like a mid-sized city that has what
00:49:59.000 you need, but it's not suffocating. I'm thinking that that's going to be sort of, if nothing else,
00:50:05.000 the blueprint for urban planning going forward if they do it. Just these giant mega cities,
00:50:09.000 even leftist don't seem to want to be there.
00:50:11.000 It's a blueprint for survival, too.
00:50:13.000 I would never feel safe in the middle of it.
00:50:15.000 And I'm a big, I very rarely in my life feel unsafe, right, in most situations.
00:50:20.000 But walking downtown with kids, with a wife, no way!
00:50:23.000 There's no chance that I would feel safe.
00:50:25.000 Well, you're a giant, so by yourself you're likely very safe.
00:50:27.000 That's what I'm saying, I just wouldn't feel safe in these places.
00:50:32.000 Here's another claim that this mayor who just switched parties makes, and all the references are available at LighthouseClarity.com.
00:50:37.000 He said that the left has failed at developing their cities.
00:50:40.000 He said, most of these local leaders are proud Democrats who view cities as laboratories for liberalism rather than as havens for opportunity and free enterprise.
00:50:48.000 Now, that's something that could seem to be subjective, but here's the truth when you look at the results.
00:50:54.000 Right again.
00:50:54.000 Yeah, he's right again.
00:50:56.000 If you look at leftist policies and what they've done to quote-unquote urban centers, it's ruined them.
00:51:01.000 Markelos and his mother own this 10-unit Lincoln Park apartment complex.
00:51:06.000 Last year's tax bill for all 10 units combined was $23,674.
00:51:07.000 But now look at this.
00:51:08.000 combined was $23,674. But now look at this, the same 10 units are now $128,282 this year,
00:51:19.000 up 440%.
00:51:20.000 That's insane.
00:51:21.000 The Old Navy closure is just the latest in a string of San Francisco retailers that are
00:51:26.000 closing on Market Street, including the Westfield Center's Banana Republic and Nordstrom, as
00:51:30.000 well as Nordstrom Rack and Anthropologie.
00:51:33.000 Across the street from the Westfield Center, the entire block is empty storefronts.
00:51:38.000 It's not related to COVID.
00:51:39.000 It's because we have a criminal environment that's tolerated and allowed to flourish here.
00:51:45.000 And by the way, when people talk about the American Dream being dead and they talk about housing prices going up, they're largely talking about big cities, areas run by leftists, who by the way, these are the places that are supposed to have quote-unquote affordable housing.
00:51:57.000 You know where you can actually still get relatively affordable housing?
00:51:59.000 Move out toward the country.
00:52:01.000 Yeah.
00:52:02.000 Drive to the suburbs, then keep driving.
00:52:04.000 The American Dream is still alive and well, especially if you can work from home for a couple of days or you're willing to make a 45-minute commute.
00:52:10.000 So, these places that help the poor, that help the downtrodden.
00:52:12.000 Hey, hold on a second.
00:52:13.000 Let's think about the left, right?
00:52:14.000 Eco-friendly, right?
00:52:15.000 They're supposed to help the poor.
00:52:17.000 They're supposed to eliminate biases, right?
00:52:20.000 Racism, prejudice.
00:52:21.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:52:21.000 Okay.
00:52:21.000 So when you think of big cities, cities like Chicago or cities like Austin or cities like San Francisco, do you think of clean, eco-friendly, affordable cities where everyone gets along across racial boundaries and ideologies?
00:52:35.000 Nope.
00:52:36.000 You'd have to drive 100 miles out to a church to find that.
00:52:39.000 Yeah.
00:52:39.000 You know what actually helps in these situations?
00:52:41.000 I don't know.
00:52:42.000 Jobs.
00:52:43.000 Good jobs.
00:52:44.000 I thought you were going to say Godzilla.
00:52:47.000 No!
00:52:47.000 He tore up San Francisco.
00:52:48.000 He's that final call.
00:52:49.000 Now I understand why he's coming.
00:52:51.000 You know, it's just more like a reset that he does.
00:52:54.000 Yeah, like, let me burn this thing down.
00:52:55.000 We'll start again.
00:52:56.000 And by the way, pro-business policies, they've led to over 200 companies relocating in and around Dallas.
00:53:02.000 Just to give you an idea, just from California, Toyota, State Farm, Liberty Mutual.
00:53:07.000 Yeah, huge.
00:53:08.000 Huge.
00:53:09.000 They want to live in America.
00:53:10.000 Yes, exactly.
00:53:11.000 They want to live in America.
00:53:12.000 Come to Texas, you want to live in America.
00:53:13.000 And then they come here and they bitch about, well, you know, I like Texas, but it's not as progressive.
00:53:19.000 Your progressivism destroyed your job.
00:53:21.000 I don't really want to go back to Torrance.
00:53:21.000 Go back there.
00:53:23.000 Then shut up and consume your freedom.
00:53:26.000 And vote conservative.
00:53:28.000 Eat your freedom.
00:53:30.000 Eat your freedom or you don't get your second amendment.
00:53:30.000 Now.
00:53:33.000 I'll take two bowls of freedom please.
00:53:35.000 You know me.
00:53:36.000 I'm going to force feed you freedom until you get gout.
00:53:40.000 Now.
00:53:42.000 Here's another claim that this man makes, the mayor of Dallas who switched parties.
00:53:46.000 He says that Democrats value virtue signaling over problem solving.
00:53:51.000 We talk about this culturally, but as a matter of policy.
00:53:53.000 Is this true?
00:53:54.000 This is a quote.
00:53:54.000 And too many local Democrats insist on virtue signaling, proposing half-baked government programs that aim to solve every single societal ill and on finding new ways to thumb their noses at Republicans at the state level.
00:54:06.000 Or federal level.
00:54:07.000 So, we know that this is true, of course, as we just saw with the Redskins.
00:54:11.000 Commanders.
00:54:11.000 Sorry.
00:54:13.000 Scalpers.
00:54:14.000 But is it true... Grand Wizards.
00:54:16.000 ...on a policy level?
00:54:18.000 Here's the truth.
00:54:20.000 Yes, he's correct, yet again.
00:54:23.000 We have a brand.
00:54:24.000 More like Black Jesus, boy.
00:54:25.000 New York has a brand.
00:54:27.000 Some CACCBDs.
00:54:29.000 It means something.
00:54:31.000 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA These streets will make you feel brand new.
00:54:37.000 New life will inspire you.
00:54:39.000 Come on.
00:54:39.000 Kansas doesn't have a brand.
00:54:41.000 Well, you know what?
00:54:42.000 of the south wind, yeah the people Well you know what?
00:54:49.000 But New York has a brand Woo!
00:54:54.000 That was weirder than I knew it going in I think you just ran with that one
00:54:59.000 I love it What's this beef with Kansas, man?
00:55:02.000 I don't know.
00:55:02.000 They're white?
00:55:04.000 They're just doing their own business, getting tornadoes and midgets and stuff.
00:55:10.000 You know what New York is?
00:55:11.000 New York City?
00:55:12.000 It's the biggest city in the world filled with rednecks.
00:55:15.000 They're just big city rednecks.
00:55:16.000 They don't know what it's like to have a car, to drive somewhere else, to enjoy freedoms.
00:55:20.000 I used to live in New York.
00:55:22.000 And I hated it.
00:55:23.000 I always hated it.
00:55:24.000 And they say, well, you know, the thing about New York is it's so convenient.
00:55:26.000 I go, what?
00:55:29.000 To who?
00:55:29.000 When I would have to go down to Fox News, and I was living on somewhere around like 77th, what they called Yorkville, right?
00:55:36.000 77th and past 2nd Avenue.
00:55:40.000 I have one subway line and it's usually full so it goes right past me.
00:55:44.000 If I were to drive in my car, it would be a six minute drive anywhere else in the country, but it takes me at least 35 minutes if I don't just have to say screw it, get out of the subway station, and walk anyway because there's no cab available.
00:55:56.000 They think it's convenient because things are close.
00:55:58.000 I've never had so much so close and completely out of reach.
00:56:02.000 A lot of people in New York don't know what a price Looks like outside of their city.
00:56:06.000 They don't know what transportation looks like outside of their city.
00:56:08.000 They don't know what what infrastructure looks like outside of their city.
00:56:12.000 They have no idea.
00:56:13.000 It's more like a third world market with barkers.
00:56:16.000 People don't realize that.
00:56:17.000 And in New York, they take this.
00:56:18.000 We have a brand.
00:56:19.000 Yeah, well, guess what?
00:56:20.000 Your brand sucks.
00:56:21.000 Your new Coke of cities.
00:56:26.000 Pepsi Crystal.
00:56:26.000 Wow.
00:56:27.000 Yes.
00:56:27.000 Ooh, yeah, that was bad, too.
00:56:28.000 You are the Zima of municipalities.
00:56:32.000 Can I just ask a real quick question here?
00:56:33.000 I know we have to move on, we're going a little bit long here, but just go back up to his quote that he said, the reason, right above there where we have it.
00:56:41.000 So he said it right here.
00:56:43.000 All of these things, Democrats in Sichuan, virtue signaling, half-baked government programs.
00:56:47.000 Why were you one then?
00:56:50.000 Did you just figure this out?
00:56:51.000 Yeah.
00:56:52.000 Like you have, like you're saying all of the right things right now, but this is so obvious that it's not like you had an aha moment.
00:57:00.000 There was no flash of genius here.
00:57:02.000 This was just you kind of playing politics.
00:57:03.000 I will say, and you get this a lot with Texas, even the Republicans.
00:57:06.000 Where they're not super conservative either, they're kind of entrenched, where the Republicans can be pretty damn moderate, and the Democrats can be pretty damn moderate.
00:57:14.000 And so they end up just kind of clustering toward the middle, and that's what gives me pause.
00:57:18.000 It does.
00:57:19.000 I want to give him the benefit of the doubt, because I know people do switch.
00:57:21.000 I'm trying!
00:57:22.000 People, they feel a certain way, they believe a certain way, and then that line right there, the half-baked idea line, that makes me think it's real, because he was tired of sitting there, having ideas, never having it come through, other people having ideas, supporting them, never going through, never working, Yeah, I think, I hope so.
00:57:38.000 I hope so.
00:57:38.000 It needs to be, what's your flash of genius moment?
00:57:40.000 Which is, when did you officially realize, okay, this can no longer work?
00:57:44.000 Mayor Johnson also said that the overwhelming majority of Americans who call our cities home deserve to have real choices, not quote-unquote progressive echo chambers at City Hall.
00:57:54.000 But the real reason we think that he changed parties, or at least the primary reason,
00:57:58.000 is he got sick of the liberal city homeless washing his windshield with bum piss.
00:58:02.000 And by the way, you guys may not remember this, during COVID I did a walk and talk with Alex Jones.
00:58:16.000 It's not a joke, it is an actual epidemic, the bum piss epidemic.
00:58:21.000 Here's a clip from back then if you missed it.
00:58:23.000 I think bum piss is worse than dust mites.
00:58:23.000 Bum piss is bad enough.
00:58:27.000 I'm allergic to bum piss, I'm serious.
00:58:29.000 Oh, do you need some water?
00:58:30.000 Oh my god, I'm serious, I smell that shit, I can't do it.
00:58:36.000 That's worse than the Yakuza!
00:58:37.000 That's bad.
00:58:39.000 He was like, there are mice!
00:58:41.000 I was like, there's mice?
00:58:42.000 There are mites!
00:58:43.000 I'm sorry, my mouth is just really dry.
00:58:45.000 The bum piss.
00:58:46.000 It's so bad.
00:58:47.000 I can't.
00:58:47.000 Can we film?
00:58:48.000 Can we film?
00:58:50.000 Let's get in the car.
00:58:51.000 Let's get away from the river.
00:58:52.000 A tank drives up.
00:58:54.000 Get in the car.
00:58:55.000 We can just go down there away from the mites and the bum piss.
00:58:57.000 I'm like, we need to evade the mites and the bum piss by going in your tank.
00:59:03.000 Yes.
00:59:03.000 All right.
00:59:04.000 Okay.
00:59:04.000 Yeah, that's, uh, that's fine.
00:59:05.000 And I guess I will.
00:59:06.000 I love how, like, Alex Jones is, like, almost throws up in Alex Jones' voice.
00:59:10.000 Like, he honestly does it.
00:59:14.000 We throw up in the same voice.
00:59:16.000 He does.
00:59:17.000 Well, it's just, it was aggressive.
00:59:19.000 Not always.
00:59:19.000 Gerald throws up in a different way.
00:59:21.000 It sounds like a nesting bird.
00:59:22.000 Eww, that's weird.
00:59:24.000 I throw up like Alex Jones.
00:59:26.000 Do you?
00:59:28.000 I go all in.
00:59:28.000 You know what I hate in films?
00:59:31.000 Whenever someone throws up, usually if it's a woman, they don't want to be so gross.
00:59:34.000 They just make it sound like a cough.
00:59:36.000 Who throws up like that?
00:59:40.000 No.
00:59:41.000 It's a tube of toothpaste.
00:59:43.000 It's a five minute heave session.
00:59:48.000 Do you notice that though in films?
00:59:49.000 It's always like a cough.
00:59:51.000 Who throws up like that?
00:59:53.000 You don't need to be cute when you throw up.
00:59:54.000 This is why most women aren't funny.
00:59:56.000 I did see one guy throw up into a shot glass once.
00:59:58.000 Really?
00:59:59.000 Yeah, he went, and then put it back, and then went back to dancing.
01:00:04.000 That's not a lot of throw-ups.
01:00:05.000 That's my friend Steven Webern.
01:00:06.000 Yep, he did that.
01:00:07.000 Wow, good for him.
01:00:08.000 Yeah, he's a cop in Miami.
01:00:09.000 So this is just so you know, this is historic because this is the largest GOP led city now in
01:00:23.000 There aren't many.
01:00:23.000 I believe before this, Oklahoma City was the only city with like a Republican mayor.
01:00:27.000 Yeah.
01:00:27.000 But it's significantly smaller.
01:00:28.000 It's a large, big urban area.
01:00:29.000 This is a large city.
01:00:30.000 We'll see.
01:00:31.000 Yeah, we'll see what happens.
01:00:32.000 What do you think there, Joe?
01:00:33.000 So look, a lot of the job growth in Dallas area has been caused by suburbs, places where
01:00:40.000 people have a little bit more land.
01:00:41.000 It's a lot more conservative the minute you get out of the cities.
01:00:43.000 That's a common story around the country, but probably more so in Texas with all of
01:00:47.000 the different cities.
01:00:48.000 In the city, very Democrat-controlled, outside Republican.
01:00:51.000 So I understand that there's pressure.
01:00:52.000 I understand that there are people saying, this guy wants to do a statewide race, maybe
01:00:55.000 run for governor soon.
01:00:57.000 You're not going to get that on the Democrat ticket, so go to the Republican side of the
01:01:00.000 ledger and see if you can make some headway there.
01:01:02.000 I just hope he brings conservative policies to that office.
01:01:06.000 I don't want him just to be the same guy with a different label.
01:01:09.000 And I fear that that's maybe what we'll have right now, so that he can kind of advance his political career.
01:01:14.000 So I know this sucks, but you have to take kind of a wait-and-see approach.
01:01:17.000 Like, okay, what's your next policy that's going to be different than it maybe will be?
01:01:20.000 Maybe we can have him on the show.
01:01:21.000 Let's see if people like him in the control room.
01:01:23.000 I keep wanting to say Adams.
01:01:24.000 What is his name?
01:01:26.000 It's Johnson.
01:01:27.000 Johnson.
01:01:28.000 Adams as the guy who was talking about New York's brand and he's a very high-ranking member of the Turtles Club as well.
01:01:35.000 Let's have him on the show and let's see.
01:01:37.000 I'm always willing to hear someone out, but I am cautiously, I'm skeptically optimistic because if you look at the state of our cities across this country, they've never really gotten it right.
01:01:47.000 No.
01:01:48.000 But at least the Ukraine is doing well.
01:01:53.000 Only a two-smoke cry can bang hoes I gotta say Ben, our friend, is a pretty good smash mouth.
01:02:03.000 He's a surprisingly good smash mouth.
01:02:05.000 I think that, by the way, I think Ukrainians are making so much money they're getting American mail-order wives now.
01:02:09.000 Are they?
01:02:10.000 Yeah, it's the other way around now.
01:02:12.000 You know you've made it when you can buy wives from other countries.
01:02:15.000 Sorry, Ukrainians, TikTok has an all-sales-or-final-return policy, so be very, very careful.
01:02:21.000 And you have to crate-ship that shit.
01:02:23.000 Now!
01:02:25.000 Tomorrow, by the way, the debate strip.
01:02:27.000 So there will be no show in the morning.
01:02:28.000 We are doing the live fact-check.
01:02:29.000 I believe Nick DiPaolo is here.
01:02:31.000 So that's 8.30 Eastern with the Drinking Game Rules to follow.
01:02:34.000 I don't know if we have those yet, if they've gone out.
01:02:36.000 Drinking Game Rules.
01:02:37.000 We'll have some guests.
01:02:38.000 We'll be live fact-checking it.
01:02:39.000 We'll give you our pregame and our postgame.
01:02:41.000 And of course, it's about two times longer if you are a member over there at Mug Club.
01:02:45.000 Yeah, it's gonna be a fun night.
01:02:46.000 And Josh, where are you performing?
01:02:49.000 Summit City Comedy Club in Fort Wayne on the 19th of October.
01:02:52.000 All right.
01:02:52.000 So we're going to continue here today.
01:02:53.000 There's a segment that we've wanted to get to for a while.
01:02:55.000 It's not the most topical, but I think it matters.
01:02:58.000 It's about state flags being racist.
01:03:01.000 It's just, just go with it.
01:03:03.000 So if you want to continue watching this, we'll be taking your chat.
01:03:05.000 If you're watching on Rumble right now, you just click that button right there, and you get to keep watching seamlessly every day through Mug Club.

01:03:16.000 But really, head on over and watch on Rumble.
01:03:18.000 Rumble, hey, thank you genuinely.
01:03:20.000 And make sure that, Chris, I never talk to them.
01:03:21.000 You're the one who talks to them.
01:03:22.000 Yeah, that's true.
01:03:24.000 I shame them mostly.
01:03:25.000 Chris, Asaf, all you guys, genuinely, and folks out there, retweet, let Rumble know, we appreciate you standing in the fire alongside with us.
01:03:40.000 We've never been with a company who has these kinds of brass balls, and we understand that there are international governments right now who want to see Rumble Go away.
01:03:49.000 Understand the fight that you're up against, and you can support them just by watching on their platform as opposed to YouTube, or joining Mug Club.

01:04:00.000 Thank you, Chris.
01:04:01.000 Thank you, Asaf.
01:04:03.000 Genuinely, beyond the business relationship, it really does, it galvanizes all of us to see that you actually Care.
01:04:10.000 And you actually practice what you preach.
01:04:12.000 So Rumble, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you very much.
01:04:14.000 We're going to talk about racist state flags.
