00:01:28.880 Happy New Year and welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies and gentlemen, and the rest of you,
00:01:33.740 in which we look back at some of the very best commentaries of the week by your favorite rebels.
00:01:38.620 I'm your host, David Menzies.
00:01:40.580 Well, Wednesday was a day like no other in Washington, D.C.,
00:01:45.460 when several unhinged idiots stormed the Capitol building to accomplish, well, to accomplish what exactly?
00:01:53.860 Kian Bexty was in Washington to witness the anarchy,
00:01:57.760 and he has plenty to say about this egregious and embarrassing turn of events.
00:02:02.580 And while we are one full week into a new year, some things, alas, never change.
00:02:08.900 Case in point, Jonathan Yaniv is up to his usual disgusting shenanigans when it comes to breaking laws and uttering death threats.
00:02:17.260 But will 2021 be the year when this thing finally ends up in the crowbar motel?
00:02:23.200 Drea Humphrey shall offer her thoughts.
00:02:25.620 And letters, we get your letters, we get them every minute of every day.
00:02:29.500 And you had plenty to say about my video regarding what had to be the craziest story of that super crazy year of 2020.
00:02:39.360 Namely, the Chinese Aviation Authority proposing that flight attendants should wear adult diapers
00:02:46.640 so that they can avoid the washrooms in aircraft so that they won't catch the Wuhan virus.
00:02:54.140 And no, folks, I'm not making that up.
00:02:56.860 Those are your rebels. Now let's round them up.
00:03:16.640 We were the holy people.
00:03:35.740 We were the holy people.
00:03:37.860 We were the holy people.
00:03:43.860 Where do you draw the line?
00:03:50.740 We like the people.
00:03:52.920 We like the people.
00:03:54.960 We like the people.
00:03:55.080 We like the people.
00:03:57.080 We like the people.
00:03:59.080 Yeah, come on.
00:04:00.580 Come on, man.
00:04:03.080 What's your problem?
00:04:04.220 Come on.
00:04:05.080 Let's get closer.
00:04:06.220 Back up.
00:04:08.080 Back up.
00:04:09.960 Fuck you.
00:04:10.640 Fuck you.
00:04:12.480 I'm just starting to set it up for them.
00:04:19.860 All right.
00:04:21.860 Nothing one.
00:04:22.360 I'm out with the line six.
00:04:23.540 Give me a minute.
00:04:24.240 I'm right back.
00:04:24.860 I'm out.

00:04:29.860 I'm out.
00:04:30.860 I'm out.
00:04:31.860 I'm out.

00:04:33.860 I'm out.
00:04:46.240 I'm out.
00:04:47.240 I'm out.
00:04:48.240 I'm out.
00:04:49.240 I'm out.
00:04:50.240 Well, Wednesday was certainly a day like none other in Washington, D.C.'s history when
00:04:55.700 we saw a bunch of people storming the Capitol building.
00:04:59.620 And for what exactly?
00:05:02.000 Luckily, we had our man in D.C. on the spot, Kian Bextie.
00:05:07.000 And he joins me now.
00:05:09.000 Uh, Kian, you're still in Washington, I believe.
00:05:12.000 Uh, for starters, what was it like in the streets of the U.S. Capitol some 48 hours ago?
00:05:18.000 40 hours ago, it was electric, people were excited, uh, people were there for, uh, you
00:05:25.000 know, a righteous cause.
00:05:26.000 They thought that the election was stolen, uh, and they wanted to speak that.
00:05:31.000 They wanted to have their voices heard, uh, the people of power, they wanted them to listen.
00:05:35.600 And then, of course, everyone has seen the footage.
00:05:38.960 There were several people, uh, and it really was several out of hundreds of thousands of
00:05:44.720 people who took hammers and baseball bats to the windows of Congress, uh, to the Capitol
00:05:50.960 building, shattered those windows and started entering.
00:05:53.880 Uh, and that's, you know, for some capitals been breached since the Canadians did it back
00:05:58.420 in the 1800s, I think it was.
00:06:00.500 So that obviously that was unfortunate.
00:06:02.720 Uh, and then the masses who were all pressed up against the Capitol building because there
00:06:07.200 was confusion here.
00:06:08.200 I would, and a lot of people aren't aware of people were trying to get to the other side
00:06:11.720 of the Capitol building.
00:06:13.060 They were told that that's where the event was being held.
00:06:15.460 So they're trying to get around the Capitol building.
00:06:17.420 So anyone who wasn't on the very front lines, pushing through police officers had no idea
00:06:22.140 that they were breaking the law until of course, they got to the steps of the Capitol building.
00:06:26.220 And then maybe they might've thought to themselves, oh, maybe I shouldn't be here, but there was
00:06:29.180 hundreds of thousands of people alongside them.
00:06:31.260 So there was a few troublemakers there, uh, who obviously did something that shouldn't
00:06:35.300 have happened.
00:06:36.300 Um, but the majority of the people that were there that day, uh, were upset for a reason
00:06:41.700 that now we're not supposed to talk about, that the election is still on.
00:06:45.660 But you know, Ken, you used the word unfortunate.
00:06:48.060 I would use an even, uh, greater word.
00:06:52.060 Uh, it was a disaster on Wednesday, I thought, and I thought these idiots and that's what they
00:06:57.380 were.
00:06:58.340 They gave a gift to the left.
00:07:00.060 Uh, they have, basically we're going to see this story spun for weeks, months on end.
00:07:08.740 That will be a highlight reel for the left in terms of justifying why we have to shut
00:07:14.260 down the so-called radical right or right wing extremists.
00:07:19.540 And the other thing, Kian, is I'm curious what the end goal was to that breaching of the
00:07:26.300 Capitol building.
00:07:27.300 So you break your way into the Capitol, you sit in Nancy Pelosi's chair, you take a selfie
00:07:31.980 of yourself.
00:07:32.980 Hey, look at me, look at me.
00:07:33.980 And then what, then where does the revolution go?
00:07:37.820 I mean, it was so bizarrely thought out and like I said, such a gift to the left, um, you
00:07:45.380 would think that these people that did that, uh, have all kinds of buyer's remorse for their
00:07:51.380 actions on Wednesday.
00:07:53.980 I imagine, uh, there's a lot of people that are upset with what happens, especially the
00:07:58.660 family of, of the woman, uh, uh, Ashley Babbitt, who died, uh, along with the other three
00:08:05.340 people who died that day.
00:08:06.340 I saw two of them being pulled out on stretchers right in front of me.
00:08:09.020 Um, everyone wants to talk about the bad things that happened that day, but there was a lot
00:08:14.020 of great things that happened.
00:08:15.020 There was, you know, uh, it, it, it really showed, uh, these kind of were when they were shouting
00:08:22.420 at those folks, shattering the windows, trying to physically stop them.
00:08:26.780 These people who were all dressed in black, shattering the windows of the Capitol building.
00:08:31.020 Uh, the crowd was physically trying to stop them, uh, taking their, their weapons away
00:08:36.540 from them, pulling them away from the windows.
00:08:38.500 The whole crowd was booing them as it was happening.
00:08:40.900 I saw one man who was being pulled out by paramedics, uh, on a police barricade, not on a stretcher
00:08:48.120 on a police barricade.
00:08:49.120 And there was two paramedics there, and there was six people wearing mega hats, uh, that were
00:08:54.100 helping the paramedics bring this guy out of the crowd.
00:08:56.580 They, they, they obviously ended up dying, but they did their best to save his life.
00:09:01.580 Uh, but the mainstream media is not talking about any of, you know, the accident that day
00:09:05.800 they're talking about a couple dozen people who, for one reason or another, uh, broke into
00:09:13.000 the Capitol.
00:09:14.000 And they're also not talking about the fact that the police were completely unprepared
00:09:16.960 for what was happening.
00:09:17.960 I mean, when Black Lives Matter was having a similar issue, uh, there were, there was armed
00:09:22.440 guards around the Lincoln Memorial, but yesterday they just, there was like three or four down
00:09:27.040 each sidewalk.
00:09:28.040 That's not, that's not an appropriate response to a march of a million people.
00:09:32.040 No, you're quite right, Keenan.
00:09:34.160 Like you said, you are not going to see those images.
00:09:37.120 You're not going to see that narrative conveyed by the majority of those in the mainstream media.
00:09:42.400 And let's also talk to about the hypocrisy.
00:09:45.640 I I'm sure you're on the same page as I am as someone who espouses conservative values.
00:09:51.560 You're all about law and order.
00:09:53.040 You're not about violence and anarchy.
00:09:55.240 And that's what we witnessed on Wednesday.
00:09:57.720 By the same token, all throughout the summer, we saw American cities on fire.
00:10:04.080 You know, Minneapolis, Seattle, uh, Portland, uh, we saw incredible acts of violence and
00:10:11.320 vandalism, no go zones.
00:10:13.160 And the Democrats, they turned a blind eye to this because that was Antifa and Black Lives
00:10:18.760 Matter, uh, that was conducting that.
00:10:21.360 And yet at the same time, they're also saying defund the police.
00:10:26.200 Now, suddenly, uh, as of Wednesday, you see the Democrats and those on the left saying, look
00:10:32.080 at all these Trumpers.
00:10:33.440 It's not a mostly peaceful protest anymore.
00:10:36.400 And it's, Hey, where are the cops?
00:10:38.880 Uh, not defunding the police anymore.
00:10:41.720 It, I mean, the hypocrisy to me, Keenan is just astonishing.
00:10:45.880 Yeah, that's a really good point, David.
00:10:48.320 Um, there's nobody calling to defund the police right now, but they want you on the police
00:10:53.520 when, if it's their political narrative, when it's their guys doing the writing, when it's
00:10:58.160 their guys doing the terrorism and AOC is, you know, it was no different from that, right?
00:11:03.120 Like AOC refused to my face to condemn the terrorist attack on the Tacoma ice facility.
00:11:09.000 I asked her in the halls of Congress, will you condemn this blatant act of terrorism and
00:11:12.920 try to fire bomb and kill, uh, government officials and AOC just sort of shrugged it
00:11:18.360 off left and the rest of the squad did exactly the same.
00:11:21.400 Um, they, they, they say that rioting is good and protesting is good and it's meant to make
00:11:27.240 you feel uncomfortable, AOC says, but once they get uncomfortable, then you're not allowed to do it.
00:11:33.000 So in other words, Keenan, it depends on who is breaking the law.
00:11:37.560 It depends on what political stripe you're under when it comes to law breaking and looting and arson
00:11:45.160 and even, uh, murder. Uh, but it, it, it's not an even, uh, field here. If, if, if it's those on the
00:11:53.400 right, they are domestic terrorists and those on the left, well, they're, uh, mostly peaceful
00:11:58.680 protesters and they should be making you feel uncomfortable. I, I think that's well said.
00:12:03.000 Moving on, where do we go from here? I mean, do you think, and we even saw, I mean,
00:12:10.520 as early as Thursday morning, there were new YouTube censorship guidelines on what you can
00:12:16.200 and cannot say about the election based on the actions of what occurred in DC on Wednesday.
00:12:23.560 Do you see more censorious activity, if you will, uh, in the months to come? Uh, because
00:12:31.160 obviously we have to protect ourselves from this vicious right wing mob, which was, as you saw,
00:12:38.600 uh, just a few dozen, uh, radicalized individuals. Yeah, uh, you're right. Uh, this is a good question.
00:12:46.120 Where do we go from here? Um, for me, uh, I actually have to go catch a flight and go back to Canada.
00:12:52.040 Hopefully, uh, it's, but generally broadly where the world goes from here in North America, Canada,
00:13:00.040 and the United States, I think the left, uh, AOC, uh, and Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden are going to try
00:13:07.160 and use what happened yesterday. They're going to pretend like it was on the scale of 9-11,
00:13:11.560 which it absolutely wasn't. There, there was when none of these, whatever you want to call them,
00:13:17.160 demonstrators, protesters, rioters, they didn't kill anyone. They shattered a window and put their
00:13:22.920 feet up on someone's desk who has a very large ego. Uh, and maybe they heard egos across the country
00:13:29.400 fairly. Um, but you know, it wasn't two towers didn't fall down and, and obliterate 3,000 people.
00:13:37.080 That's, it's not the same scale, but Joe Biden and Facebook and Twitter are going to change now,
00:13:42.680 just like how they changed, just like how the government changed what you can, how airports
00:13:48.200 work after 9-11. Now, social media is going to change completely. How you're allowed to conduct
00:13:52.920 yourself in the political process is going to change forever. But David, I do have to go catch
00:13:56.680 my flight here. So I'm, I'm going to have to leave it. You got it. Well, Ken, uh, thank goodness you
00:14:01.560 are able to stay safe covering it and, uh, all the best to you in 21. Thanks, David.
00:14:09.160 And that was Kian Bexty getting out of Washington, D.C. Keep it here, folks. More of Rebel Roundup come
00:14:16.120 right after this.
00:14:22.520 The offenses that led to Yaniv's latest arrests stemmed from an incident that occurred on October 22,
00:14:29.400 2019. And if you've been following some of my reports at Yanivtrial.com, then you know
00:14:35.880 that Yaniv was currently on probation at that date and still is today. And that one of Yaniv's
00:14:42.840 conditions for that probation is to be on good behavior and keep the peace. Well, I'm no judge.
00:14:50.760 I'm just a journalist, but I'm pretty sure that Yaniv breached those conditions by threatening to kill
00:14:56.360 B.C. activist Chris Elston. Take a look.
00:14:59.320 You're going to get s**t drunk. I will s**t kill you. You're going to send another bomb
00:15:03.560 threat to my phone? I'm watching you. Get away from my car. Get away from my car.
00:15:09.720 What do you not understand, you s**t people? Get away from my car.
00:15:14.280 You want to call another bomb threat? Yeah.
00:15:16.040 Here we go. Get away. You want to get punched, don't you? Go away. Go away from my car.
00:15:25.880 I need police for language, please.
00:15:29.560 Yaniv threatening to hurt someone. How? Not surprising at all. Now, you may also know Elston,
00:15:36.520 who is also known as Billboard Chris. He often holds controversial signs and protests about his
00:15:42.040 concerns with gender ideology and children being perceived as being able to consent to life-altering
00:15:47.800 hormone treatments. We even did a report at rebelnews.com after Chris Elston and another B.C.
00:15:55.400 activist put up a huge I heart J.K. Rowling billboard in Vancouver. The sign was to support
00:16:02.600 the Harry Potter author who has received some backlash for publicly expressing similar concerns as
00:16:09.400 Elston's. Now, I sat down with Elston about what took place the day Yaniv threatened to take his life,
00:16:16.760 and here is what he had to say. I probably need to be careful what I say because this matters before
00:16:21.400 the courts, but I was just out protesting in Walnut Grove in Langley, and Yaniv came searching for me,
00:16:31.640 I guess, and first pulled up in the left-hand turn lane of the road and laid on the horn for about
00:16:38.680 20 or 30 seconds and uttered some stuff I don't even remember, just that I was going to get arrested
00:16:45.560 or something, you know, typical Yaniv nonsense.
00:16:57.560 We're going to get arrested on the sun, right? It's pretty hot. This is an exciting point.
00:17:07.560 Well, the calendar might indicate that we're in a brand new year, but some things, alas,
00:17:16.920 never change. Case in point, that vile, walking, talking freak show known as Jonathan Yaniv,
00:17:23.880 a.k.a. Jessica Yaniv, a.k.a. Jessica Simpson, a.k.a. The Bride of Frankenstein. He, she, it is still
00:17:33.000 uttering death threats, still breaking the law, and incredibly still getting away with it. So what
00:17:41.240 exactly is the deal with Yaniv? Or is that a query that has no logical answer? And joining us now for
00:17:50.520 the latest chapter regarding that real-life horror show is Drea Humphrey. Hey, happy new year to you, Drea.
00:17:57.000 Happy new year. So Drea, I'm not sure who I'm most upset with here. Yaniv or a justice system that
00:18:07.640 seems completely reluctant to do something about this menace, presumably due to identity politics.
00:18:16.120 What's your take? Well, I think we've got to point the finger at the justice system. Absolutely. I mean,
00:18:22.440 how many people need to be on the receiving end of all that is Yaniv before, you know,
00:18:28.920 something gets done to protect people from Yaniv. It's getting ridiculous. It's getting tiresome.
00:18:35.240 And, you know, the year is starting off really to no surprise. And I don't think that's going to be
00:18:42.440 the end of some of the outbursts, have you, or whatnot that we hear from Yaniv.
00:18:48.280 You know, Drea, I tend to agree because I'm just wondering if we were in an alternate universe and
00:18:54.280 Yaniv was, you know, a guy, a regular gal and was doing these acts of violence. I mean,
00:19:02.680 as you pointed out in your video, Kian took a shot. I took five shots of that steel cane to my head and
00:19:08.760 shoulders. I just wonder if there would be, I guess, so much latitude in terms of giving this
00:19:19.000 person yet another chance or the justice system and even law enforcement turning a blind eye. But
00:19:25.160 I think the point is, this is not what the justice system is supposed to be. Lady Justice is holding
00:19:31.080 the scales. She's wearing a blindfold. So, you know, I hope you're, I hope we do see some activity
00:19:39.400 in the right direction in terms of blind justice in 2021 when it comes to this individual.
00:19:45.320 Well, first of all, I didn't know you got five whacks. Wow.
00:19:49.480 But second of all, yes, absolutely. Also, you know, Yaniv has a history of, you know,
00:19:59.880 appearing to know how to kind of work the system. So I think that sometimes when Yaniv was in front
00:20:07.080 of different judges and booking certain courtrooms and things like that, or playing the victim very
00:20:14.040 well, we saw that with Kian when Kian was refused entry and then the guards, or sorry, the
00:20:22.280 sheriff's there accused him of recording. And then he had to prove, you know, open up his phone. He
00:20:28.200 didn't have to, but he chose to prove that that wasn't the case. So we've seen, you know, accusations
00:20:33.720 of things that kind of making you come off as the victim and then leave, you know, the journalist
00:20:40.360 stuck out of the courtroom and stuck at the courthouse and not able to report the news.
00:20:45.320 So yeah, I mean, my goodness, in your video, you even show him driving away. Well, first of all,
00:20:51.240 laying on the horn for like a good 20 plus seconds, which is a traffic violation, then driving away
00:20:58.760 while using his cell phone. Again, another violation. I mean, he's blamed about it. The thing is,
00:21:06.120 you know, Dre, I've asked you this question and I've asked all our rebel staff about this. I'm trying to
00:21:12.920 take a stab at what his motivation is. I think initially when he was trying to get
00:21:20.760 female salon owners to wax his male genitals, I think he was deliberately fishing for negative
00:21:28.600 reactions to go to a human rights tribunal, which he did. He filed more than a dozen cases,
00:21:34.120 to get a big payday out of it. I think it was a con, but the more I see this individual,
00:21:41.160 I think it's kind of like half con and perhaps half mental illness. I don't think he's quite
00:21:47.560 all there. And I think the same could be said for his mom. What do you think is the unspoken story
00:21:53.480 here when it comes to the Jonathan Yaniv story? Absolutely. I think we do have someone who does
00:22:00.520 have a mental illness on our hands and we don't have to guess at that anymore. Actually, in one of
00:22:04.360 my reports, the judge did mention that Yaniv does have a diagnosis and things like that. And so,
00:22:12.280 you know, that's nothing to make fun of, but it's also not an excuse for us to be at risk,
00:22:18.360 you know, just to let people who aren't all there and violent and unpredictable, you know, run around.
00:22:25.400 And in this case, drive around, not only on your cell phone recklessly, like there was some sort of
00:22:31.720 emergency happening. But, you know, while you're on probation, threatening to kill people.
00:22:38.280 So, yeah, I mean, you know, people are going to take a very dim view of the justice system
00:22:44.200 if this individual continually gets away with it. I can tell you, Drea, my last encounter was last
00:22:50.120 summer in Toronto. He and his mother were staying at the Pantages Hotel. You know the story. He was
00:22:55.720 catfishing. He was led to believe there was a minor at Sick Kids Hospital that he was going to get
00:23:01.480 some visitation to. It's so creepy. It turns my stomach. And who brings their mom along for a caper
00:23:08.680 like that? You know, it's just so out there. But he got law enforcement to appear lickety split
00:23:16.200 because he falsely phoned in to 911 a weapons charge. He said, I had a handgun trained on him
00:23:24.920 and his mother. This was eyewitness and eyewitnesses said this to me. They overheard the call.
00:23:31.320 And then he later puts out on social media that the only reason I wasn't arrested for a handgun
00:23:38.280 violation is because I threw the handgun down a sewer. Well, Drea, not only does the handgun not exist,
00:23:45.080 the sewer doesn't exist. And yet when the police get there, I'm the one in trouble because my car was
00:23:53.240 illegally parked. What is it with this guy that regardless of the jurisdiction he's in, he always,
00:24:01.480 you know, he always gets a pass? Certainly seems like a serial litigator. And you know,
00:24:08.760 there's something about what you mentioned, the whole reason that you were down there for that report.
00:24:13.560 I cannot unsee the bit of footage of Yaniv with his mom at the pool. I mean,
00:24:22.200 I was haunted for days. It was so gross. I think she's wearing her bra and then the water.
00:24:31.480 Anyways, I had to say that right now. But you're right. I forgot. But yes, you absolutely have been
00:24:36.680 face of, you know, baseless claims that don't even add up quite a wild imagination. You know,
00:24:43.640 you show up with a mic in one hand and a gun in the other. I mean, it's ridiculous. And actually,
00:24:48.680 in this situation, in the interview, that's why I asked Chris Elston, who was the recipient of the
00:24:55.400 utter threats. I asked him, you know, what was the bomb threat about, you know, because you can see
00:25:01.640 you need deep. Oh, you want to have something like, you know, you, you want to call in a bomb threat
00:25:07.000 again. So you can see how quick Yaniv knows he can use the court system by just simply saying
00:25:14.040 something and get some attention. But you know what? It was that call to the police that actually had the
00:25:19.800 police come in and look into things. And guess who got arrested? It wasn't Chris this time.
00:25:24.920 Oh, you know, that's good. Hoisted on his or her own petard. One last thing, Andrea,
00:25:31.560 you know, I want to be clear here. It's not that I'm trying to carry out any kind of anti-trans
00:25:37.880 narrative. I mean, if you're a man or a woman and you want to slice and dice your genitalia
00:25:42.840 and you want to remove your breasts or get breast implants and you want to, I don't know, pretend you're
00:25:48.040 another gender, you know, hey, we're all about freedom. Do your own thing. The thing with this
00:25:54.040 individual is he had, he is continuing to adverse other people's lives in a negative way. He went to
00:26:01.960 mostly immigrant women as titians to begin with, who didn't know how the system worked, who didn't
00:26:07.880 know the law and basically carried out extortion. And you know, quite frankly, Drea, given the British
00:26:15.160 Columbia Human Rights Tribunal, if there hadn't been international press with about this, I think he
00:26:21.960 might have gotten away with it. Your last thoughts, my friend. Absolutely. I've seen reports that,
00:26:27.640 you know, say it was a shame that he did get away with that, which sounds outrageous to me.
00:26:33.080 The women that were targeted were easy targets and, you know, they need to be protected with their
00:26:39.560 rights and their right to bodily integrity and not have to handle, you know, anybody's body parts that
00:26:46.600 they don't want to have. And it's nothing to do with transphobia. I mean, that word gets thrown
00:26:51.560 around so much just to try to silence common sense. It's not even funny. So yeah, no, I totally agree with
00:27:00.120 you. Fantastic. Well, Drea, keep on this file. You're doing fantastic reporting on it and stay out of
00:27:08.120 arm's length of this person. I speak from experience and all the best to you in 2021, my friend.
00:27:15.080 And I just want to add one thing. So the court dates have been set for Kian's trial, the trial
00:27:22.040 regarding when he assaulted Kian and that's coming up this February. So I'll be following that closely.
00:27:27.240 Excellent. I can't wait. Let's hope justice prevails. Yes. Okay. Bye. Thank you. And that was
00:27:33.640 Drea Humphrey in Vancouver. Keep it here, folks. More of Rebel Roundup to come right after this.
00:27:38.600 Well, thank goodness the CAAC has a super duper solution for this issue. It wants flight attendants
00:27:52.120 to, wait for it, wear diapers. Yep. These guys are really putting the PP into the PPE. Quote,
00:28:02.920 Infection risks. Alas, the catalyst for this whiz-bang recommendation is a story regarding a
00:28:22.280 woman who traveled from Italy to South Korea. She contracted the coronavirus during the flight and
00:28:29.060 apparently the only time she did not wear her N95 mask was when she went to the lavatory.
00:28:37.220 So it is that the tall forehead types running China's aviation authority believe that's where she
00:28:45.140 might have been infected. Well, maybe. Would you believe perhaps? So because of this theoretical
00:28:54.100 typhoid Mary, there's now a move afoot to put flight attendants in diapers? Yep. One on the face and one in
00:29:03.700 the usual place. My nostrils are weeping here, folks. I mean, just think of the olfactory joy that awaits
00:29:12.020 when diaper-dawning flight attendants make the rounds servicing passengers who are seated in what is
00:29:19.060 essentially a hermetically sealed tube making use of recirculated air. Gulp. Good grief. Are the
00:29:28.180 friendly skies about to become the fecal skies? Granted, so many of those flight attendants might
00:29:35.220 look ever so cute in their uniforms, but me thinks the fantasy dies a gruesome and quick death once that
00:29:43.300 sexy coffee-tea-or-me stewardess walks down the aisle with a freshly dispensed number two residing in her
00:29:51.620 depends. No, ma'am. No snacks for me, please. I'm on a strict diet and I'm definitely passing on that
00:30:00.100 amber-hued Mountain Dew. But say, do you happen to have a clothes peg I can affix to my nose?
00:30:06.740 I'll pay you a hundred bucks for that. On the plus side, thank goodness planes are equipped with
00:30:13.860 barf bags. Hey, forget air turbulence. Those little baggies are going to come in quite handy
00:30:20.660 once the shite hits the fan. As for joining the Mile High Club, well, to quote Jim Carrey from Ace Ventura
00:30:29.540 Pet Detective. Do not go in there. Woo! You know, folks, I often remarked that 2020 was the most
00:30:38.420 insane year I have ever lived through, and I bet a lot of people harbored the same opinion. But as the
00:30:45.700 months went by, I frequently pondered the question, have we reached peak insanity yet? Well, that story
00:30:55.060 that broke last month about flight attendants wearing adult diapers so they could avoid using
00:31:01.460 supposedly unsanitary airplane washrooms. Well, I think that was indeed the peak insane moment of 2020.
00:31:11.540 And sorry, folks, me thinks 2021 isn't going to be any sort of utopia when it comes to getting off the
00:31:19.300 Wuhan virus crazy train. In any event, you had plenty to say about a stupid idea that quite
00:31:27.300 literally stinks. Melanie Todd writes, degrading, humiliating, ridiculous. Pushing the envelope to see how much
00:31:35.700 people will accept. Soon enough, passengers will be expected to do the same. Passport please and diaper
00:31:43.460 check. I hear what you're saying, Melanie. And as if air travel couldn't possibly get any more
00:31:50.980 uncivil, along comes this cockamamie made in China scheme that truly seems beyond belief.
00:31:59.380 Campion04 writes, I hear in China they're advising people not to see their own family.
00:32:05.140 Oh, wait, that's Canada. I can't tell who's more crazy. You know, you're right. It's so confusing
00:32:11.140 these days when it comes to which nation is winning the cuckoo Olympics when it comes to
00:32:16.580 Wuhan virus protocols. Henry Malvena writes, nothing surprises me anymore. 2021. Here we go.
00:32:24.740 You're right, Henry. I think I'm now shockproof when it comes to the latest idiocy
00:32:29.700 in the name of curbing the virus. As they used to say on Laffin, sock it to me, baby.
00:32:36.020 Well, that wraps up another edition of Rebel Roundup. Thanks so much for joining us.
00:32:40.020 See you next week. And hey, folks, never forget without risk, there can be no glory. Good night.
