00:00:00.000 Well, folks, some UFC fighters have beef with me for some reason.
00:00:03.000 I guess this is my life now. 0.99
00:00:04.000 Responding to actual retardation from people who have been hit in the head a lot of times and think that gravity is a hoax and that the rotation of the earth is a lie from the devil. 0.99
00:00:16.000 This is where we are now. 0.94
00:00:18.000 So I just want to say for the record, I kind of like the UFC.
00:00:21.000 The UFC is American as apple pie.
00:00:22.000 Lincoln was a wrestler.
00:00:24.000 Teddy Roosevelt became a brown belt in judo while he was in the White House.
00:00:27.000 George Washington was regarded as a champion wrestler before he was leading the Continental Army. 1.00
00:00:32.000 With that said, there are a lot of idiots in this particular space. 1.00
00:00:35.000 Controversy over this UFC fight at the White House. 1.00
00:00:39.000 Now, again, this is, you know, just fun and games for the White House to put up a UFC fight for America 250.
00:00:45.000 A lot of people are freaked out about it on a sort of aesthetic level.
00:00:48.000 Oh, no, it's just terrible.
00:00:50.000 Reminder that Teddy Roosevelt literally erected a boxing ring in the White House and then himself boxed people because that's who Teddy Roosevelt was.
00:00:57.000 But now there are some side controversies, not just over whether the UFC should hold a fight on the White House lawn, but over who gets to attend.
00:01:04.000 So, there is a fighter whose name is Sean Strickland.
00:01:07.000 Strickland is, he was hit in the head many, many, many times. 1.00
00:01:11.000 Maybe we can blame that for the fact that he is a complete dolt. 0.99
00:01:16.000 Well, he claims that he was barred from the White House event because he wasn't Israeli enough. 0.99
00:01:21.000 Well, it really isn't that.
00:01:22.000 It's the fact, I assume, that he says crazy things all the time.
00:01:26.000 And it wasn't as though he was barred, they just didn't invite him. 0.99
00:01:28.000 And the reason they didn't invite him, as Dana White explains, is because he's kind of a crappy person. 0.84
00:01:33.000 In any case, Strickland tweeted just last night, quote, let me ask you guys, 8,000 lives lost $3 trillion for Zionism. 0.92
00:01:43.000 Not the hell he's talking about.
00:01:44.000 Tell me, what did those lives and treasure buy us?
00:01:46.000 Was it worth it?
00:01:47.000 Are we getting free oil? 0.94
00:01:48.000 We need to call this for what it is a compromised government. 0.80
00:01:50.000 So, again, a nutjob conspiracy theorist who undoubtedly will end up on Tucker Carlson's show within the next month or so.
00:01:56.000 In any case, here he was claiming that the UFC told him not to show up.
00:02:02.000 Well, you guys, I'm not surprised, but I got the call.
00:02:06.000 I got the call.
00:02:07.000 I got the call.
00:02:09.000 The UFC higher-ups called me, you know, big names.
00:02:12.000 They said, Sean, I got to apologize. 0.99
00:02:13.000 But you're not Israeli enough to go to UFC 250 Israel edition, the White House, and it cleared you. 0.99
00:02:23.000 And I'm not really surprised, you know. 0.99
00:02:25.000 I'm not really surprised. 1.00
00:02:26.000 So, you know, I think moving forward, I would like to just apologize to Israel. 1.00
00:02:33.000 I'd like to say I'm sorry, you know. 0.79
00:02:35.000 I'd like to apologize to Trump.
00:02:36.000 And I just want to prove that I'm Israeli enough for you guys.
00:02:44.000 The low IQ, the low IQ of these folks.
00:02:46.000 Well, Dana White said, no, no, no.
00:02:47.000 It wasn't that he was banned, he just wasn't invited.
00:02:50.000 Here was Dana White, the head of the USC.
00:02:53.000 And he made it very clear that he didn't want to be a part of this event, and now apparently he's banned.
00:02:57.000 Nobody is banned.
00:02:59.000 Nobody's music is banned.
00:03:01.000 No media members have been banned.
00:03:03.000 And the list goes on and on.
00:03:05.000 This is obviously a very unique event where, first of all, there's only so much room.
00:03:13.000 And she was telling me that, you know, at the White House, there's a thousand media members that are credentialed at the White House.
00:03:20.000 So, you know, a thousand people are like, oh, we're all going to, no, we can't have a thousand, you know, of the White House media members just show up at this thing.
00:03:28.000 There's only 4,300 tickets to actually see.
00:03:32.000 So, literally nobody has been banned from this event.
00:03:37.000 We'll get to more on this in a moment.
00:03:39.000 First, if you're still making payments every month and your debt isn't going down, there's a reason for that because those minimum payments, they're not designed to get you out of debt.
00:03:46.000 They're designed to keep you stuck in debt.
00:03:48.000 Every month you wait costs more and more.
00:03:50.000 And this is why you need to know about PDS debt.
00:03:52.000 PDS debt helps people struggling with credit card debt, personal loans, collections, medical bills, find a way forward.
00:03:58.000 They can reduce up to half of what you owe.
00:03:59.000 It starts with a free, personalized 30 second assessment.
00:04:02.000 That doesn't just cost money, it costs peace of mind.
00:04:05.000 And when people get in debt, I know a lot of people who are in debt student debt, home loan debt, all the rest of it.
00:04:10.000 And then you start racking up second credit cards, it can absolutely destroy your life.
00:04:14.000 Well, PDS debt can help.
00:04:15.000 They use AI and data to personalize saving solutions for your situation.
00:04:19.000 There's no minimum credit score required.
00:04:20.000 They're the top rated company in the industry with thousands of five star reviews and an A rating from the Better Business Bureau.

00:04:40.000 Part of the conspiracy theorist idea is that somehow, what, Benjamin Netanyahu called Donald Trump, who then banned Sean Strickland?
00:04:47.000 That is the idea here?
00:04:49.000 Or maybe you've just been hit in the head one too many times.
00:04:51.000 Speaking of people who've been hit in the head one too many times, there's another UFC fighter named Bryce Mitchell who apparently has some sort of Obsession with me and my show.
00:05:02.000 He's mentioned me many times, apparently, on various podcasts.
00:05:06.000 I have to admit, I've not paid a lot of attention to him because number one, I don't really watch UFC.
00:05:10.000 And number two, I really don't take seriously the opinions of people who believe, for example, that the earth is flat and does not rotate because rotation is a lie from the devil or that Hitler was a good guy based on his own research.
00:05:25.000 He seems like a real researcher.
00:05:27.000 This guy's a Princeton level researcher, apparently.
00:05:29.000 That gravity is a hoax.
00:05:33.000 It's a hoax.
00:05:34.000 So he's stuck to the earth by force of magnetism.
00:05:37.000 Magnets, how do they work?
00:05:39.000 And seatbelts, he says, are an unconstitutional overreach of government power.
00:05:43.000 That last one is arguable. 0.80
00:05:44.000 The rest of them, pretty crazy.
00:05:47.000 Pretty crazy, because this is not a particularly high IQ person.
00:05:52.000 But here he was on a podcast with the Hodge twins. 0.99
00:05:54.000 And I have to say, when you're the dumbest person on a podcast with the Hodge twins, that says something about you. 0.99
00:06:00.000 Truly. 1.00
00:06:02.000 This is the last time there was this much retardation in the room was like two days ago when Megyn Kelly and Buckley Carlson were doing an interview. 1.00
00:06:10.000 But this tops even that. 0.99
00:06:12.000 So here is Bryce Mitchell, who apparently also can't actually get through an interview without taking off his shirt.
00:06:17.000 Sort of like the Bonnie Blue of male podcast sphere.
00:06:24.000 Here he was saying some weird things.
00:06:26.000 I tell you right now, you've been Shapiro.
00:06:30.000 I'll be taking off his shirt. 1.00
00:06:31.000 Look, if you mess with Candace Owens, I promise you, if you lay one little greasy finger on Candace Owens, I'm going to beat you. 1.00
00:06:39.000 I'm going to roll up on you, shirts off. 1.00
00:06:41.000 I'm going to have the twins with me. 1.00
00:06:42.000 We're going to beat you ass because you mess with Candace Owens. 1.00
00:06:44.000 We're going to be looking, shirts off, me in the middle. 1.00
00:06:47.000 We're going to look like a six foot tall Oreo coming at you, buddy. 0.98
00:06:50.000 We're going to stomp you to the ground. 0.99
00:06:52.000 Don't you mess with Candy, baby. 0.97
00:06:54.000 I'm telling you right now, I don't like Ben Shapiro.
00:06:57.000 I'll say it to his face.
00:06:58.000 Bring him on the show. 1.00
00:06:59.000 Because he wants Christian people in this country that he already steals their tax dollars off of. 1.00
00:07:04.000 He's part of this corrupted government. 1.00
00:07:06.000 He's a piece of shit. 1.00
00:07:07.000 Just like the rest of them. 1.00
00:07:08.000 He wants us to go die to bomb Muslim kids for his Jewish people because he's too scared to do it. 0.99
00:07:15.000 How come Ben Shapiro, since he's all about this war, how come he don't sign up for the army? 0.99
00:07:22.000 Oh, boy.
00:07:23.000 So, a few things.
00:07:24.000 One, you didn't have to take off your shirt to say that.
00:07:27.000 It's weird.
00:07:28.000 It's strange.
00:07:29.000 Again, the Bonnie Blue of political commentary, Bryce Mitchell.
00:07:33.000 Also, don't lay a finger on Candace Owens. 0.96
00:07:41.000 What?
00:07:42.000 I mean, what now? 1.00
00:07:44.000 You could not pay me enough money to lay a finger on Candace Owens. 1.00
00:07:48.000 There is no amount of money in the world. 1.00
00:07:50.000 She's one of the worst people on earth.
00:07:52.000 Are you out of your. 0.98
00:07:53.000 What?
00:07:55.000 And then, of course, the idea that I want him to, he's not in the military.
00:08:01.000 I'm not asking him to do anything, actually, or that I am drawing taxpayer money.
00:08:06.000 I promise you, I pay a lot of tax in this country, more than Bryce Mitchell is paying.
00:08:10.000 I pay in this country. 1.00
00:08:13.000 But again, responding to retardation, I guess this is what we do now. 1.00
00:08:17.000 This is what we have to do.
00:08:20.000 He also suggested evil empires don't last forever.
00:08:25.000 Here we go.
00:08:27.000 Did you see that Sean Strickland got banned from the White House for talking about Israel? 0.89
00:08:31.000 I'm not surprised at all.
00:08:33.000 Freedom of speech is what really makes this country great.
00:08:36.000 And when you can't criticize a foreign nation, a foreign nation, come on, man.
00:08:41.000 We ought to be able to criticize our own nation, let alone a foreign nation.
00:08:45.000 In fact, that's the only nation you're not allowed to criticize.
00:08:49.000 Something's going to change because evil empires don't last forever.
00:08:53.000 There's always a rebellion.
00:08:57.000 Um,.
00:08:58.000 Well, I mean, it wasn't just stuff about Israel. 0.99
00:09:00.000 Again, this game is the dumbest game in the world. 1.00
00:09:02.000 It's the dumbest game in the world. 1.00
00:09:03.000 People say things that overtly anti Jewish. 1.00
00:09:06.000 And then the minute they are questioned, say, no, no, no, I was just talking about Israel.
00:09:10.000 Direct quote from Sean Strickland Being here, I'm starting to understand why Jewish people are hated so much.
00:09:17.000 You might see me come back here with a weird mustache.
00:09:20.000 That's a reference to Adolf Hitler. 0.74
00:09:24.000 Come on, come on.
00:09:27.000 Hey, but you know what?
00:09:27.000 Getting agitated with people who undoubtedly suffer from CTE.
00:09:33.000 Is, I feel like it's a waste of resources.
00:09:37.000 Ah, well, things are going well.
00:09:39.000 Things are going well here in the United States.
