00:00:00.000 Yo guys, what's up? Hey, it's Andy. Hey, no intro today. I just wanted to hop on and talk to you
00:00:05.440 about the Missouri Senate race and my feelings about what happened last night with Eric Ritens
00:00:10.320 and Eric Schmidt. First off, I want to thank everybody who voted for Eric Ritens. I want to
00:00:15.740 thank everybody who went to vote, period. I think it's a good thing that people participate in the
00:00:21.620 primaries regardless of who you vote for or what you believe. I want to congratulate Eric Schmidt.
00:00:27.280 I think Eric Schmidt's a great dude. I know him personally. I like him a lot. And the reason
00:00:32.680 that I chose to go for Eric Ritens over Eric Schmidt had to do mainly with the fact that I've known Eric
00:00:39.640 Ritens for a long time. I believe in him. I know what he's about. And I know for sure that he is
00:00:45.060 willing to fight at every single level. When COVID lockdown tyranny happened here in St. Louis, a lot
00:00:53.540 of businesses lost their business. A lot of restaurants were shut down. A lot of small
00:00:57.280 businesses were shut down. And they were done so by the county board and the county executive here
00:01:02.560 in St. Louis. And Eric Schmidt was slow to respond. He allowed it to happen. And I understand people
00:01:09.840 were scared. I understand people were frustrated. But we don't lock down our fucking businesses here
00:01:13.760 in this country. That's not what we do. And that was the main deciding factor. That doesn't mean I
00:01:18.780 think he's a bad dude. It doesn't mean I think he's anything. I think he's a great dude. And I
00:01:23.260 think those of you that voted for him, I think he'll do a good fucking job. But that was where my
00:01:27.220 heart was. Okay. I did what I thought was right. Now, I want to say something that I think is very
00:01:34.140 important for you all to understand. Regardless of who won the election, we have a problem in this
00:01:41.720 country. And the problem in this country is not that we have tyranny going on or tyrannical government
00:01:51.580 or anything like that. That's a clear problem. But there's a bigger problem. And the problem is
00:01:58.500 that regular people can't play the game on these people's battlefield. And you have to understand
00:02:04.340 that. Okay. They own the media. They can make up anything they want. And they can lie about you. 1.00
00:02:09.540 And they can push that out with millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars
00:02:14.880 of horsepower. And there's still a significant amount of people out there that believe what
00:02:20.480 they see on TV, which is unfortunate. I know for a fact, I know because I have been around Eric
00:02:27.760 Reitens what kind of man he is. I know they lied about him. I know they exaggerated things that happen
00:02:32.760 into these big giant things. And they ran $10 million of ads against him in the last 30 days.
00:02:39.540 Okay. And you have to ask yourself, why would they do that? Why would they run $10 million of ads
00:02:44.960 against a normal human trying to do right if they weren't completely terrified? And they are completely
00:02:52.180 terrified of anybody who is not part of their game. And so I want you to realize, and what I want you to
00:03:02.180 take from this is that it's not okay that we live in a world where people can make up lies about people
00:03:10.560 and push them out. It's not okay where people who don't represent the interests of this country
00:03:20.100 can donate millions of dollars to city prosecutors that don't prosecute crime and instead falsely
00:03:28.360 prosecute government officials that don't align with their value system or their game and those
00:03:35.720 people that stand up to these people. Because that's what we're dealing with. You know, I've dealt
00:03:40.160 with a ton of harassment, real talk, a ton of harassment over even speaking my mind over the
00:03:48.200 last couple of years. I've had people break in my home. I've had people show up at my house.
00:03:53.100 I get threatened every day. I have people threatened to try and get my show removed.
00:04:00.580 Like bro, the lies that these people make up and what they're willing to do is endless. And I hope
00:04:09.400 that you guys, while I hope that Eric Schmidt goes and fights, and I think he will. I think he will.
00:04:16.240 I think he's realized what's going on and I do believe he will fight. But I hope that you all will
00:04:23.420 realize from this point forward how unfair the game is and how important it is for you to look
00:04:30.400 beyond the stirring headline or the attacks that these elite people put on people. It's not just
00:04:41.440 Democrat versus Republican. They are weeding out the freedom-loving Republicans by doing this.
00:04:48.520 So like a lot of the people who would be willing to go fight, and I've seen two elections up close
00:04:55.020 for the first time in my life this year. A lot of these people who are willing to go fight,
00:05:00.280 they don't stand a chance because these other people who are allowed to basically lie and run
00:05:07.600 fucking slander campaigns and tarnish people's character and assassinate people's character 0.97
00:05:15.360 based off of things that aren't true. You know, Eric had to resign. Eric Gritens had to resign from
00:05:21.480 governor for things that have been now shown to be completely made up in the court of law.
00:05:29.160 And then in the last 30 days, they've run $10 million of ads saying that Eric abused and beat
00:05:35.880 his kids. I'm sorry. I don't believe that. I know Eric. I've been around him. I know how he treats his
00:05:41.880 fucking kids and it ain't like what he's saying. They flyer the polling stations with these flyers
00:05:47.020 that say he beats the shit out of his kids. They ran ads on every channel nonstop saying Eric is
00:05:53.500 violent and a threat and beats his kids. This is not true. And you know, whether you think I'm
00:05:59.340 just sticking up for my buddy or not, I'm not, I'm just telling you it's not true.
00:06:04.540 And so I would like for you guys to consider the amount of
00:06:09.100 bullshit that you're being presented with and look below the surface. The people who stand for the right
00:06:17.340 shit get attacked the most. Okay. They are the, they are the victim of coordinated attacks
00:06:24.860 that try to ruin their lives and take everything from them for trying to stand up for the interests
00:06:30.920 of everybody. That's a sad situation in America. That's something that really makes me sad. And it
00:06:39.260 sort of makes me feel like, you know, maybe our votes don't matter. Like I thought they did.
00:06:44.020 And maybe it is too far gone. I don't know, but the system that we operate in, we have to be smarter.
00:06:50.600 We have to be stronger and we have to be willing to look past the initial attack to see what the
00:06:56.680 truth is behind it. Okay. This is a cultural revolution. We cannot win playing their game.
00:07:06.360 We cannot win playing their game when they own the media and they're in control of basically every
00:07:11.660 perception of every opinion. And then they have the social media locked in with them where they just
00:07:16.160 delete your shit or straddle your traffic or take you down. Okay. This is why I'm moving all my shit
00:07:23.620 to my own platform because I don't trust Instagram. I don't trust any of these companies. I don't trust
00:07:31.100 the hosting platforms for any of the podcasts. You know, I've had podcasts taken down. I've been attacked.
00:07:37.460 It's just, I'm going to put it on my own platform so that I can run and say and do what I think is
00:07:42.280 right. And so I guess what I want to say is, you know, I talked to Eric this morning. He's
00:07:48.540 disappointed, but he's okay. Um, I wish Eric Schmidt the best. Uh, I hope that he does take it to these
00:07:56.340 motherfuckers hard. Uh, and I hope he's the right guy that, that, you know, that will do the job.
00:08:02.320 Uh, we'll, we'll find out about that. That's who I'm going to choose to support from here on out.
00:08:08.040 Um, I probably have him on the show. I'm not sure, but the point of the matter is,
00:08:15.120 is that we need to get smarter. We need to get stronger. We need to get better.
00:08:19.260 And we need to start understanding that our messages that we are fed are not always the truth.
00:08:26.600 Okay. And they do have the power to ruin you. They do have the power to fuck with you. And as much as
00:08:33.440 I've tried to like, not talk about it, cause I don't want to scare people in the stand, not standing
00:08:38.100 up. It's reality. You know, I had a guy break into my house and write, welcome to no fly list on my
00:08:43.500 fucking house in my house. Like, these are the people we're dealing with. We're dealing with people
00:08:49.060 that are so fucking evil that they're willing to ruin lives, ruin people's lives.
00:08:55.580 Okay. Create rumors that will probably stick with someone for the rest of their life. 0.97
00:09:02.400 Like there's going to be people out there that believe that Eric Gritens beats his kids
00:09:06.060 for the rest of their fucking lives. That's not right. It's not happening. And it will become
00:09:12.760 true and known that just like whenever they forced him to resign, that that was a lie too.
00:09:19.120 That will come out. Okay. The FBI agent pled guilty about that. The prosecutor is
00:09:25.420 probably going to lose her law license for what she did while he was governor. And then 1.00
00:09:29.980 they ran the same play and people fell for it. We have a lot of work to do guys. We have a lot
00:09:35.660 of work to do. Okay. So be smart, be aware, pay attention, get involved as much as you can.
00:09:45.340 Cause I don't want this to be taken as, you know, voting doesn't matter because the bigger
00:09:50.040 the gap, the harder it is for them to cheat. And I'm not even saying that cheating happened here,
00:09:54.600 but what I am saying is that $10 million of ads running a story. That's not the truth
00:10:00.280 to hammer someone's reputation. That's, that's, that's wrong. That's wrong.
00:10:06.700 And if we want the best people to win in America and we want the people that are going to represent
00:10:11.700 and fight for us, we, as people on the ground are going to have to start to recognize when these
00:10:18.420 attacks are coming and stand by the people who are being attacked. Okay. I've put myself out there
00:10:24.280 for a long time. I've, I've, I've said everything I can say. I've spoke up against everybody. I've
00:10:31.020 done so because I feel like I have a platform. I feel like I have an obligation. I feel like it's
00:10:37.260 important. And you know, my life is, is not as fun because of that. And so when these things happen,
00:10:45.980 I think it's important for you guys to stand with the people who are being attacked and recognize
00:10:50.680 that the attacks are an indication that this person is a threat. That's what I would like
00:10:55.560 everybody to take away from this. There's nothing that can be changed about the election last night.
00:11:00.280 I'm happy for Eric Schmidt and his family. Like I said, I think he's a really good dude.
00:11:04.780 And I hope that he had really does see what's going on as willing to fight it. He's putting out some
00:11:09.840 great lawsuits. He's attacking people where they need to be attacked. I appreciate that. I know the
00:11:15.060 people of Missouri appreciate that. I just wish it would have happened a little bit sooner. That's
00:11:19.700 really my deciding factor on how I voted. So, but yeah, that's what I wanted to say. I felt a need to
00:11:26.320 say it. You know, be aware, be, be, you know, get engaged in your communities. Understand that the
00:11:34.740 people that they attack the most are the people that they fucking are the most afraid of and stand
00:11:38.960 with those people. Stick up for those people. Okay. Do the right thing. It's not easy to get
00:11:44.980 on here every day and talk about what's going on in the world only to walk out of here and face the
00:11:49.360 harassment that I face. Real talk. Like I'm getting fucking tired of it. Like it's old. You know what
00:11:55.740 I'm saying? Like everybody needs to fucking wake the fuck up because if you don't, there's not going
00:12:01.940 to be people out here that are going to continue to fucking speak this. It's just not going to happen.
00:12:06.100 They're going to go live their lives. They're going to enjoy their lives and whatever happens
00:12:10.980 is going to happen as a result of that. And that's a dangerous situation. So I would appreciate it
00:12:16.040 if you guys would start to understand and spread the word that when these people, um, who are
00:12:22.900 affiliated with the world economic forum and the great reset and the COVID tyranny and all these things
00:12:30.740 that are going on, you know, the open borders, this, that, the other, when people stand up against
00:12:35.800 that and they get fucking hammered personally, and they're getting a character assassinated, 0.61
00:12:41.680 you guys have to be smarter and you have to be willing to stand with those people.
00:12:46.160 I mean, guys, all you have to do is look at what they did. Donald Trump over the last,
00:12:50.320 you know, six years, you know, they made up a Russia collusion story. They made it up.
00:12:55.560 It's proven. Okay. They ran media ads for fucking six years about how he's a devil. They're still
00:13:01.660 talking about him. He's not even the president. They're still talking about him. Okay. They are
00:13:07.620 willing to make up and do anything to silence the opposition that keeps them from losing their power.
00:13:13.800 And that anything includes taking us to war. It includes opening our borders. It includes 0.84
00:13:18.760 destroying our currency. It includes making your life fucking miserable so that you look to them
00:13:24.760 for a solution. You know, I've been trying to pour in to you the first five years or so. I tried to
00:13:33.280 pour into you with every entrepreneurial lesson that I learned for free. I'm trying to help you
00:13:38.400 guys win. I'm trying to make this country better. I'm trying to make this world better.
00:13:44.400 I switched formats because I want to talk about the bigger problems in the world
00:13:47.940 because it's important because without those problems being solved, we won't have the opportunity
00:13:53.480 for personal success ever again. And I've given and given and given and given and given and given
00:14:00.920 and given and given. I haven't ran an ad on the show. I haven't made money on the show.
00:14:07.900 I haven't fucking charged for the show. I've done it for fucking free. And the fact that people can
00:14:16.260 allow people to get attacked and not stand by them when they know that these things are lies and
00:14:23.280 not stand up with people like, bro, that, that makes me think I'm doing this for nothing.
00:14:28.420 You know, it makes me think like, why am I doing this? Why am I fighting? Why am I,
00:14:32.640 why am I putting these messages out for free? What am I, what am I doing? Why am I doing this?
00:14:37.900 Because it's not fun to go out and get hung up and not have, you know, uh, the, the truth be told,
00:14:47.480 you know, like at some point guys, you guys are going to have to find some courage and start
00:14:54.220 standing with people who are getting attacked and getting bullied and getting fucked with 0.83
00:14:58.820 when these people in power are paying to have their lives fucked up. And that's what happened
00:15:06.460 to Eric Gritens, dude. And it fucking kills me, bro. Cause I know this man. I talked to this man.
00:15:12.220 I talked to him this morning. It's not right. And the only way it changes is if we reject their
00:15:20.240 shit, we reject their attacks. We reject their fucking bullshit. Because guys, if you don't
00:15:27.300 start standing up, people like me are going to go away. Like I'm not fighting for the sake of
00:15:33.720 fighting. I'm fighting for a fucking result. And if I don't start to see those results, I mean like,
00:15:41.080 dude, like what, what am I doing? Why am I doing this? You know? And I think you would feel the
00:15:46.060 same way if you were me. You know, this isn't fun. It's not fun to come in here and say things
00:15:52.600 and then walk out of here and get attacked for them because I'm saying what I think is right.
00:15:59.020 That's my opinion. You have your opinion. We all have our opinions and we're entitled to them.
00:16:06.220 My opinion comes from lots of years of experience in business and life.
00:16:12.260 I might be wrong about some things, but I'm not, I'm not wrong about most things. I'm right about
00:16:16.340 most things. That's why my life looks the way that it does. And so when you guys like see these
00:16:23.260 people out there fighting, I'm not talking about just me. I'm talking about fucking anybody.
00:16:28.260 And you see these people fighting and taking the bullets and taking the heat, getting harassed and
00:16:32.740 willing to, you know, put themselves in the, in the path of fucking all this nonsense and these 0.79
00:16:38.300 lies and this bullshit, support these people, stand up with them. This is their way of controlling
00:16:46.140 the fucking narrative. The minute someone speaks up, they try to silence them. The minute someone
00:16:51.440 stands up, they knock them the fuck down. Is that freedom? Is that what you think America's
00:16:58.840 supposed to be? Cause that doesn't sound free to me, bro. I grew up understanding and maybe
00:17:05.660 it's a different time, man. Maybe I'm fucking too old for this shit. Maybe you young people 1.00
00:17:10.400 just feel differently. I don't know. But I grew up in a situation where, you know, we wanted
00:17:19.080 the best for this country. You know, we had an obligation for doing our best and building
00:17:27.000 our best lives to the people who came before us and laid the groundwork and the framework
00:17:32.460 for us to have the opportunity. And that that's something we've lost. I don't see that right
00:17:37.100 now. And I come in here and, and, you know, give it my fucking all bro. I feel like I'm wasting
00:17:42.700 my fucking breath. And if you guys don't get engaged at the street level, you guys think,
00:17:51.680 oh, well, nobody cares about me because I don't have a big platform. Guys, the people
00:17:55.800 with the big platforms can't do it by themselves. You have to join in. You have to call bullshit
00:18:04.080 when these people fucking do these things. You have to look at people and say, man, have
00:18:08.920 they done more really good shit or have they done more really bad shit and stop jumping on 0.81
00:18:14.980 the bandwagon and canceling people every time they fucking somebody decides they want to take 0.97
00:18:19.400 an attack at someone because you don't feel good about your own shit. That's not going
00:18:23.140 to fix the country. It's not going to fix your life. It's not going to make you happy.
00:18:30.240 We have a lot of work to do guys. And it starts by you guys realizing there's a lot of people
00:18:36.140 out there that are sacrificing a lot of their own personal happiness and their own personal
00:18:42.040 peace to fight for a better life for you. And in my opinion, you owe them some fucking support.
00:18:47.880 And I'm not talking about me. Okay. I'm talking about fucking anyone out there that's doing
00:18:54.140 whatever the fuck they can do to fix this scenario because it's bad. And it just because you don't
00:18:59.760 know how bad it is doesn't mean that it's not bad. Guys, we have to get smarter. We have to get
00:19:06.580 smarter. If we continue to believe the commercials, even a little bit, like when they say, oh, this guy
00:19:12.540 did this or this guy did that, these political commercials, that's not going to bring America
00:19:17.440 back, tearing people down and ripping people apart for votes. That's not going to take America
00:19:24.320 to where we need it to go. You know, having these people interfere with people's lives just because
00:19:29.780 they're wealthy and they can afford to create paper pay for play stories and scandals. And then later
00:19:35.580 there's no accountability for the lies like that's irreparable damage. How is that? Okay. Here in
00:19:41.260 America, you know, how many people out there think that, you know, like I said, you know,
00:19:47.340 and this isn't just about Eric Gritens. This is about fucking anybody, anybody they choose.
00:19:53.680 You know, I've put myself out there. They fucking choose to come at me and they say people,
00:19:58.480 they fucking have people do shit to me. I mean, bro, this is anybody. This isn't just
00:20:04.460 Donald Trump. This isn't just Eric Gritens. We have to get smarter and support the people who
00:20:10.820 are willing to voice and stand up to these fucks. Okay. Now I hope Eric Schmidt is that guy. I really
00:20:18.200 believe that he will be all right. Time will tell, but you know, at the end of the day, it's us
00:20:26.460 at the ground level that either believes the shit or dismisses the shit or believes the shit or 0.78
00:20:32.860 fights against the shit and says, that's bullshit. You guys are attacking this dude because he's
00:20:37.200 this. We need that in the world at the ground level. You guys have to stand up to these attacks.
00:20:44.780 You know, they, they are not above, you know, literally tearing people's lives apart,
00:20:50.300 starting wars. Like this is crazy fucking shit. Okay. Be smarter, pay attention, get engaged.
00:21:00.800 When your friends start to buy into a narrative that isn't true, talk to them about it. These
00:21:05.540 are things that matter and good people are getting their lives ruined because they're trying to stand
00:21:11.200 up and do the right thing for all of you. So please support them. Whether, whether that's in your
00:21:18.120 country, whether that's in your state, whether that's here in Missouri, we have to get together
00:21:23.060 on this. Otherwise guys, they're going to take everything from us, bro. You'll own nothing and
00:21:28.640 like it. Like that's what the fuck they want. And they really want that. So be smart, man. You know,
00:21:35.340 I want to close this out by saying, I wish the best to Eric Schmidt. I really do. I think he's a great
00:21:40.360 guy. I think those of you that voted for him, I think you're going to be proud of him. But I also
00:21:45.060 know that we need to fight. And if Eric hears this, you know, I'll probably talk to him in
00:21:50.680 person here soon. We need to fight from the go, not after there's been damage done. That
00:21:56.220 is my only critique of that. Okay. We have to fight from the start. We can't wait until
00:22:01.760 it's, you know, there's enough people disgruntled to where we start fighting. That's not what
00:22:05.920 America is, dude. America is about fighting when you notice that something is fucked up and 0.90
00:22:11.800 getting in the fight. And that's what we need. And I hope Eric Schmidt brings that to the table.
00:22:16.800 I'm going to support him. Okay. I love you guys. I appreciate you guys. I'll see you next time.
