No one wants to be liable and connected with what we say.
00:00:05.020
Because then they go and harass the company and go after the company.
00:00:13.240
The hill that Republicans die on, that's why I said you guys will lose this election
00:00:32.380
A lot of guys, because I spoke out against it and a lot of guys reached out to me that
00:00:35.620
are very famous that had everything taken away from them.
00:00:40.820
And I'm like, women should serve jail time when they lie.
00:00:45.000
And it comes out that it is proven that they lied.
00:00:52.880
I mean, basically, at this point, like, no wonder guys treat women like shit where
00:00:57.180
every dude with money is just a walking liability, especially in Los Angeles.
00:01:03.480
I'd be like, well, half of you are going to turn on me.
00:01:09.460
Everyone's like, oh, you said they should work, so they should be in an office being
00:01:18.000
Then you wonder why you lose elections because of shit like this and shit like abortion.
00:01:21.600
I just, I'm like at the point where it's like, it's, well, what do you expect when we've
00:01:26.280
created a society where the only people who get rewarded are victims?
00:01:30.500
And, you know, you get book tours, you get attention, you get money, everyone feels bad for you.
00:01:38.360
I want to play your clip because you got beef with the trad wives, don't you?
00:01:47.220
I got beef with the left, the right, the middle.
00:02:07.140
You are a political commentator, Fox News commentator.
00:02:12.900
I've been with Newsmax, Fox, Jubilee a couple times.
00:02:19.380
You were just debating, like, the craziest people.
00:02:22.940
And I saw you were arguing about your pronouns.
00:02:26.100
That was the typical, like, liberal moment where he was like, I'm going to switch up on her.
00:02:30.060
Because he's like, jokes on you, we all use pronouns.
00:02:32.320
I'm like, yeah, but I don't use it in a dumb way.
00:02:35.400
And then you said, like, your highness or something.
00:02:37.500
I was like, oh, call me pretty princess or else it's a hate crime.
00:02:47.840
And I was kind of having trouble pinning down exactly, like, where you label yourself.
00:02:57.860
Because in the right, you have to have a label or else, you know, people have to figure you
00:03:02.100
out, which I don't think is the most important thing.
00:03:16.260
I believe conservative values are the best for most people in the country.
00:03:24.320
But I just, I don't like all the boxes and everything that comes along with that.
00:03:30.940
Like, where, like, what made you have these beliefs?
00:03:56.240
And then I was, like, I kind of like what these people have to say a lot more than the other people.
00:04:00.720
Because I was just, like, I'm not doing the mask.
00:04:04.820
And I just started listening to, like, people at the time, like, Ben Shapiro, Candace Owens.
00:04:09.440
And I was, like, okay, I like what they have to say more.
00:04:14.160
And after I did that, I put on a MAGA hat, started going on rants in my car.
00:04:17.960
And then I became, I don't know, the Republican of Los Angeles.
00:04:23.680
And, oh, so did you, was that really a problem for you?
00:04:27.780
Yeah, the first thing jobs do is they look at your social media.
00:04:31.460
They see a white blonde girl with a MAGA hat on.
00:04:36.920
There weren't, like, conservative companies that wanted to, you know,
00:04:40.020
because I did, like, a bit for a while where I was looking for a job because I got demonetized.
00:04:45.380
But I had, like, conservative, like, sales roles, like, reach out to.
00:04:51.960
Because isn't Orange County really conservative?
00:04:54.420
Yeah, but I was in downtown LA, which is, like, very liberal.
00:04:58.420
But the whole point is, like, I was in real estate,
00:05:00.240
so I applied for thousands of jobs that I was overqualified for.
00:05:03.440
And no one had the balls to be like, hey, I can't hire you because there's social media.
00:05:06.600
I mean, I had to work at a clothing store, and then I had to be a hostess.
00:05:12.580
Like, aren't a lot of the wealthy people in LA conservative?
00:05:17.920
No one wants to be liable and connected with what we say.
00:05:22.920
Because then they go and harass the company and go after the company.
00:05:28.780
Like, I couldn't get a job at Taco Bell if they saw my social media.
00:05:33.240
I'm sure eventually it'll go a bit back to normal.
00:05:37.800
I had to work at, like, a restaurant with a mask on.
00:05:40.440
And so then you started debating people and going on...
00:05:52.120
I was doing rants in my car every day that started going viral
00:05:55.060
because I literally had no friends and nothing to do
00:06:05.000
And that's really, honestly, how people first saw me and found me.
00:06:07.860
And then I was hiking one day and I got an email
00:06:10.900
and they were like, do you want to be on Fox tonight?
00:06:17.920
I was, like, shaking and, like, literally had, like, a panic attack
00:06:36.580
doesn't really match, like, the fire, you know what I mean?
00:07:47.040
Like, that's kind of what you were saying in the...
00:08:02.800
to say to someone who could afford to go to school,
00:08:13.440
kind of just, like, an annoying little shithead.
00:08:20.200
Like, we all think you're gay here, but you're not.
00:08:22.220
He had, like, an anxiety pen I saw the other day.
00:08:41.840
but I just couldn't believe he had an anxiety pen
00:09:00.180
you're lying for quick, like, clicks and views?
00:09:08.500
it's just like, what do you mean I cried and I ran off?
00:09:11.500
I was asked to leave so someone else could come in.
00:09:15.020
it's like everything they do is just a fucking lie.
00:09:22.780
Because, I mean, I've come here, like, here and there,
00:09:30.020
When people are like, oh, you live in Los Angeles.
00:09:39.360
This whole thing of, like, everyone thinks I'm, like,
00:09:46.440
most successful people in the world have real estate here.
00:10:02.500
I mean, it took burning people's homes to the ground.
00:10:11.100
Yeah, they literally vote to be, like, attacked.
00:10:35.580
So I played volleyball overseas for three years.
00:10:38.980
And there was a tournament where dudes were playing.
