The Culture War - Tim Pool - Gavin Newsom Clear FRONT RUNNER For 2028 Nomination ft. Viva Frei

00:00:00.000 it's just they don't care not in a negative way uh but also branding they're gonna see they're

00:00:06.320 gonna see a a charismatic slick well-dressed you know healthy looking gavin newsom and it's all

00:00:13.320 branding if they turned kamala harris into the you know 50 50 candidate uh gavin newsom has been

00:00:19.920 around longer for good and for bad but yeah no it's branding it's conditioning and people will

00:00:25.460 vote for blue no matter who it's the old expression this is from the hill newsom is becoming an

00:00:30.700 obsession for democrats beyond california democrats have become obsessed with gavin newsom as the

00:00:36.420 california governor becomes the topic for operatives donors and lawmakers um with the 2028 presidential

00:00:42.580 election is still more than three years away newsom is making the kind of name for himself that

00:00:47.080 could lead to front-runner status political operatives say uh democrat strategist jamal

00:00:51.840 simmons said newsom's name is coming up more than anyone else's in recent weeks particularly with

00:00:56.840 people outside the political sphere they asked me two questions do you think he can win and do you

00:01:01.980 think he can be the guy simmons said no one ever asked me a single policy question about him so it's

00:01:07.940 very vibes based trump of course was clowning on exaggerating when i said that i received in the

00:01:13.080 mail a trump 2028 hat from one of his biggest supporters these guys are not so warning shot from

00:01:18.660 trump but does indicate that even even in the white house they are starting to see newsom as

00:01:22.460 potentially the front runner for the democrats which would be great i think newsom's pretty easy

00:01:25.880 to beat um he's just shot up in polling or in a in prediction that betting market he's at 35 percent

00:01:32.660 now um so he's just completely crushing the field and the betting side um and even in polling he's he's

00:01:38.860 surging um you see here in in red his polling has completely shot up over the last few weeks

00:01:44.920 now he's on par with uh with kamala harris who it's unclear if she's gonna run um look newsom might

00:01:51.820 be the guy so i think we should bring in viva i think he might have some thoughts on this i think

00:01:56.660 he could break this down further i'm also going to ask him about the uh the doj report that we got

00:02:01.140 um i'd be curious to hear his thoughts on that as well so we're getting them in the room here we're

00:02:04.820 getting them situated thank you for joining i mean everyone everyone's gonna know uh everyone's

00:02:09.240 gonna know who you are i would say but just for people that maybe don't could you give a quick

00:02:12.580 introduction who you are and what you do absolutely i gotta make sure my hair is in order i didn't

00:02:16.180 like my makeup person is out today uh viva fry david freiheit is my real name for anybody who

00:02:21.080 thought it was viva former montreal litigator or quebec litigator now living in florida uh legal

00:02:27.260 analysis commentary and uh following the madness of the world on a minutely basis legend legend the

00:02:33.800 viva fry the legend i'm just glad to be talking to you uh i want to open up with with i was reading

00:02:38.580 a report from the hill and not a report a story from the hill newsom's really starting

00:02:42.560 to take a decisive front runner um position here and with democrats i mean there was a democrat

00:02:48.560 strategist jamal simmons he came out and he's saying everyone he's talking to is newsom newsom

00:02:51.800 newsom and uh you look at the betting market i mean he's really just up he's he's like 20 30

00:02:58.100 percentage points ahead of everyone else and then in polling he surged recently i mean trump fired

00:03:03.720 off a warning shot this morning i don't know if you saw where he had the the trump 2028 hat on on

00:03:08.060 newsom but the fact that he's firing off a warning shot indicates that even within the white house

00:03:11.880 there's the view emerging that newsom might be the front runner for 2028 i don't know what you're

00:03:16.820 seeing i mean it's for it's astonishing just the caliber of candidates on the left like you say if

00:03:23.640 it's not going to be newsom who else is it going to be i mean like i take even just plausible candidates

00:03:29.720 it's not going to be pritzker it's not going to be whitmer uh it sure as hell isn't going to be 0.84

00:03:34.140 hokul uh who's going to be aoc like it's either a newsom or some people who are even more radical but

00:03:40.360 the the irony newsom is is a failure he's an abject failure and so it's nice you know he's he's 0.56

00:03:46.760 charismatic if you like used car salesmen uh he's got experience if you like failed politicians and

00:03:52.580 so you know but but when i was studying philosophy in uh 25 years ago i took a class called philosophy

00:03:59.600 of jazz and they actually we studied how people get conditioned to like music that's not even good

00:04:05.300 it's basically how everybody likes pop music it's conditioning you see it every day you get to know

00:04:10.160 it you become familiar with it and then you sort of brainwash yourself into thinking you like it

00:04:14.400 that's what they're doing with with gavin newsom that's what he's been doing by doing these podcast

00:04:18.100 runs he's clearly got the aspirations going he's adopting trump tactics on twitter but just the irony

00:04:25.160 he's he's a horrible failed politician i don't know if he's as corrupt to the core as as the others are

00:04:31.120 but immoral uh and just an abject failure so let him run the only alternative is someone who hasn't 0.71

00:04:37.020 had time to fail in government like an aoc although she's had her time to fail as well sure i mean the 0.94

00:04:42.360 one thing that scares me is 45 of the electorate voted for kamala harris so i do think to a degree we

00:04:47.440 underestimate the foolishness of the american electorate uh someone like gavin newsom i mean like

00:04:51.920 i know the resume is horrible obviously but when the media machine kicks in someone like gavin 0.72

00:04:58.460 newsom he can polish things up pretty quickly americans have short memory it's i wouldn't even 1.00

00:05:03.400 say that they're you know the electorate is stupid it's it's they it's tribalism hopefully it's getting 0.99

00:05:09.260 a little bit better that people have been exposed to it but you know not everybody lives on the internet 1.00

00:05:13.480 like we do not everybody knows gavin newsom forget the affairs but not everybody knows you know gavin

00:05:18.540 newsom running on ending homelessness and so you know they they just don't know people are living their

00:05:24.080 lives and they you know they see blue and that's who they vote for and it doesn't matter who it is

00:05:27.980 i i ran uh for the people's party of canada in westbound ndg in in my riding in canada i i swear

00:05:34.940 to you if they didn't see that it was a dog they would have voted winston for prime minister you

00:05:39.660 know winston for the liberal party yeah uh because it's just they don't care not in a negative way

00:05:45.100 uh but also branding they're gonna see they're gonna see a a charismatic slick well-dressed you know

00:05:52.400 healthy looking gavin newsom and it's all branding if they turned kamala harris into the you know 50 50

00:06:00.080 candidate uh gavin newsom has been around longer for good and for bad but yeah no it's branding it's

00:06:05.920 conditioning and people will vote for blue no matter who it's the old expression well i mean i because

00:06:11.440 i've been kind of pushing back on the idea that a lot of people in the gop circles are discussing this

00:06:16.960 with zoran for example in new york um they're saying maybe we should just let him win because

00:06:21.480 it could be an example to the rest of the country of how crazy the democrats are but i'm sitting here

00:06:25.920 thinking i'm like i think zoran if anything he just he just pushes the overton window within the

00:06:30.360 democrat party further to the left and just gives permission for these more moderate people to adopt

00:06:35.160 more radical policies because someone like zoran can sort of redeem his image quite quickly especially

00:06:40.780 because i mean he does have a degree of charisma to him i mean do you think there's any credence to

00:06:44.620 this theory of like well maybe you should just let him win to so to see if it gets bad enough uh

00:06:50.060 no i mean i say you fight politically tooth and nail um because you give them an inch they'll start

00:06:55.960 fighting from that point going forward um what's amazing though even with zoran is how quickly people

00:07:03.240 who are unfamiliar with his prior statements they'll never know about them but how quickly they can

00:07:07.380 rebrand the guy into being something of a more centrist as opposed to the radical that he is

00:07:11.760 do you follow keir starmer on twitter by any chance i don't follow him but i see him too much

00:07:17.140 unfortunately well you know but the amazing thing is like keir starmer literally overnight and it's

00:07:21.880 fitting that he's british like out of 1984 flipped his script oh yeah he says now he's now he's anti

00:07:27.000 immigration closed borders uh in you know you got to speak english this is a man who has been the

00:07:32.040 most radical activist supporting multiculturalism invasion of of the uk and overnight he flips the switch

00:07:38.960 where anybody who hadn't been following him from before that all gets erased zoran is almost doing

00:07:44.440 the same thing now and it's the danger of these duplicitous uh socialist progressive uh ultimately

00:07:50.980 very duplicitous uh politicians they pretend they didn't say what they said in the past they get into

00:07:56.500 office and then they implement that and then some much like with the uh what was it defund the police

00:08:02.900 sure it was like oh no nobody's saying that okay people are saying that but it's radical all right

00:08:06.340 now we accept it right so it's going to be the same thing with with zoran if he gets into office

00:08:10.840 no i'm not that much of a radical i just want common sense uh you know transit ambassadors and then

00:08:16.820 a year later you are literally living in a 1984 everyone is spying on everybody uh orwellian

00:08:22.140 landscape absolutely well i mean like you said with keir starmer i mean you know he's touting the

00:08:26.380 the wonders of diversity and he's like okay sure people get stabbed and blown up but you get kebabs 0.99

00:08:30.920 it's fantastic and then he then all of a sudden like overnight he flips and he gives this speech

00:08:35.240 where he calls uh the uk an island of strangers i mean it sounded like a page out of an enoch powell

00:08:40.020 speech i mean it was like whoa this is crazy and the media over there bought it and you know you're

00:08:45.840 starting to see gavin newsom adopting somewhat of a similar playbook and it's it's gavin is ignoring

00:08:50.700 the fact that first of all i i don't trust the stats coming out of california period but

00:08:55.340 the the demographic stats in terms of who's leaving california versus who's going to california

00:09:00.760 you you can't falsify those or at least it's more difficult to crime stats if people stop

00:09:05.840 reporting uh they stop convicting they they can change you know asian to caucasian and then jack

00:09:10.560 up one stat versus another um but he's an abject failure a disaster of a governor and you know i think

00:09:18.900 they say between the aocs who doesn't even have that much of a track record to have been a failure

00:09:23.740 yet versus gavin newsom i can see politically they say we'll take a gavin newsom because at least he's

00:09:28.680 got a track record of failure that we will then be able to hammer home but people don't even listen

00:09:33.080 i mean people are going to go gavin's going to go do the podcast he'll go on call her daddy

00:09:36.460 and uh they won't talk about right his his failures but uh no he's he's he's clearly he's got the the

00:09:43.400 strategy he's adopting it and it's it's obviously what he wants because he's a power hungry uh sociopath

00:09:49.080 and i say that as a armchair psychiatrist sure no certification yeah well i mean there is the report

00:09:54.740 the new york times was either this morning or last night that the white house is considering

00:09:58.480 offering gigs to eric adams and curtis liwa the gop candidate to basically just get him out of the

00:10:03.620 way so that way andrew cuomo has a actual has a shot at at dethroning zoran and uh jack pasovic he he

00:10:10.980 had a speech this morning at natcon where he was just saying look the thing with zoran it's it's one

00:10:15.920 thing just to try and get him out of office you know prevent him from holding office but you're gonna

00:10:19.080 have the same problem in four years he's saying jack is saying we need to have a conversation of

00:10:22.960 how are people like zoran even getting created it i mean the irony is you're gonna have either a mass

00:10:31.280 murderer and i consider cuomo hyperbolically to have been a mass murderer for what he did during 0.67

00:10:36.800 covid versus an aspiring mass murderer because that's what socialists and communists are these

00:10:41.520 are the two best candidates i don't like cuomo period i'd rather i'd rather see everyone uh put their

00:10:45.920 weight behind chris uh chris eric adams sure because i think he's a more oddly enough he his

00:10:52.100 realignment has been more organic it's not like a flip of the switch like keir starmer uh he's a

00:10:57.120 more reasonable person i would love to see him throw his support to the to the republicans yeah

00:11:02.360 um and i think there would actually be more i say this i'm not sure that it's accurate but

00:11:07.220 i because i just can't understand how anybody could support cuomo period literally a man responsible for

00:11:13.520 10 15 000 deaths then weaponize those deaths to try to blame it on trump the man should be in jail

00:11:18.720 not back in office so if it's between zohran and um cuomo i mean it's it's the devil or the devil 0.52

00:11:25.280 eric adams has has gotten reasonable so sure i think he just needs to uh either you know go more

00:11:32.400 independent but align with the right or you know go full-throated and see what what new yorkers are

00:11:37.300 prepared to tolerate because their options are are bleak with those options eric adams is funny because

00:11:43.380 he's clearly just a very simple guy right like you see these zohran and andrew cuomo like there's these

00:11:48.340 total ladder climbers like cut throat they'll say anything to get elected and then eric adams is

00:11:53.140 like every time he gives a speech it's like he has no idea what he's going to say and then he's just

00:11:56.100 like floating ideas in real time it's actually kind of refreshing to see someone like that because they

00:12:00.880 don't really exist in politics anymore i i never liked eric adams plant-based stuff i'm convinced all

00:12:07.480 of that is is more unhealthy than you know the a full carnivore diet but you know with adams it was it

00:12:14.220 was policy he was sort of on the virtue signaling um landscape when it came to immigration diversities

00:12:21.140 are our strength yada yada but then the economic realities of the policy sunk in and he appreciated

00:12:27.060 that it's nice to want to do good but you have to be able to support your own children before you can

00:12:32.420 have more um he's come around on his policies and i think he would actually be of the three

00:12:39.120 obviously the best who's the guy with the barrette um i don't know enough about him but i do know that

00:12:44.760 i think people are right about you know who am i to judge someone for what they look like

00:12:48.380 um no eric adams has come around in an organic way and i think he would be the best leader so i don't

00:12:55.100 know how to make it happen but people who are voting for zoran they're the same people who were

00:12:59.840 voting for justin trudeau in 2015 right and i voted for trudeau in 2015 not because i liked anything

00:13:05.320 about him but you know first of all i knew nothing you you only are paying attention to

00:13:10.260 30 second you know commercials you see on the on tv at the time sure and uh you you if you don't know

00:13:17.720 um even what to look for you're not going to know anything and so they're young they're uh idealists

00:13:24.980 and they see in zoran a young newly arrived immigrant or at least you know and and then they're

00:13:31.180 going to feel good voting for him even though they have no idea what policies he's esposing

00:13:34.800 and how it's actually going to destroy new york right as anybody knows it now yeah well it's

00:13:39.960 interesting that the white house is considering that it shows that the white house this is this

00:13:43.800 is a different ball game compared to previous gop administrations because they're not afraid to go

00:13:48.080 on the offense to address these issues that americans are concerned about i mean americans don't want to

00:13:51.540 see our largest city fall into the hands of a insane kind of third world third worldist marxist 1.00

00:13:57.720 like crazy person and and with the same regard there's a story that the daily wire actually was

00:14:02.900 reporting this morning um where the doj the doj is uh deliberating potentially just outright banning

00:14:09.120 transgender individuals from from owning guns i don't know if you've seen this story well i i was

00:14:13.860 gonna twitter is a weird place you don't want people thinking you're taking shots at other people

00:14:18.080 no i i knew from that headline that all that the doj was contemplating was applying mental illness

00:14:24.800 criteria to the um ownership of firearms and they were going back to the traditional definition of

00:14:30.860 gender dysphoria being a mental illness and whether or not it should be one of the mental illnesses that 0.91

00:14:35.620 precludes a citizen from owning a firearm you know i'm following it i i uh in as much as there are

00:14:42.480 disqualifying mental illnesses you don't want uh you know psychotic schizophrenics owning firearms 0.70

00:14:47.800 with delusions of reality okay you know you can understand where the argument goes when it comes to

00:14:55.480 what is wasn't as far as i'm concerned should always be a diagnosable mental disorder of gender dysphoria

00:15:00.840 the argument people are going to make is they once diagnosed homosexuality as a mental disorder

00:15:06.180 and and there's a fundamental difference between homosexuality and transgender dysphoria which is

00:15:12.720 homosexuality you are who you are attracted to someone who's the same sex there's no there's no 0.96

00:15:17.280 separation of reality from body gender dysphoria fundamentally is a mental illness in the sense that 0.74

00:15:23.040 someone has a different perspective of what they want to be reality versus what reality actually is

00:15:28.560 and so to compare what might have been at one point diagnosis of mental illness unfairly to that which

00:15:34.500 is objectively a mental illness by any definition of the term not analogous and so they can set that

00:15:39.640 argument aside um the bigger concern is going to be this is one big step towards red flag laws

00:15:46.260 where they're going to say okay if you haven't been diagnosed as transgender but you have certain

00:15:50.540 sexual gender you know predilections whatever someone calls in the authority say hey that guy's 1.00

00:15:56.600 transgender he owns a firearm hey this is dan harris host of the 10 happier podcast i'm here to tell

00:16:02.120 you about a new series we're running this september on 10 happier the goal is to help you do your life

00:16:06.780 better the series is called reset it's all about hitting the reset button in many of the most crucial

00:16:11.900 areas of your life each week we'll tackle a topic like how to reset your nervous system how to reset

00:16:17.340 your relationships how to reset your career we're going to bring on top-notch scientists and world-class

00:16:23.120 meditation teachers to give you deep insights and actionable advice it's all delivered with our

00:16:28.240 trademark blend of skepticism humor credibility and practicality 10 happier is self-help for smart

00:16:34.580 people come join the party or are they going to ask you about your gender ideology on um an application

00:16:40.660 it's one thing to go to a doctor but are they going to say do you identify as trans well those are

00:16:44.620 exactly questions we don't want people asking right now period so right it's a double-edged sword i see

00:16:49.280 where they're going with it um but yeah yeah well i mean like someone just crushes the notes of a

00:16:53.960 michael jackson song in their car and they just say oh he's trans you know there's something going on

00:16:57.720 and they come after you take your gun you know it's it's it's the issue we had i mean even with

00:17:02.080 schizophrenia with other men diagnosable mental illnesses that people would say yeah you shouldn't

00:17:06.260 own a gun it takes a disgruntled uh ex-wife or something to say he he's he's an undiagnosed crazy 0.67

00:17:11.720 person go get his guns and then lo and behold you have like joe biden type fbi raids where people are

00:17:16.260 getting shot but um it's interesting the administration definitely is bolder in what they

00:17:21.940 will um contemplate as talking points even if they don't make policy of it i think the underlying

00:17:27.580 issue here is from from the military perspective they said look gender dysphoria is a mental illness

00:17:32.680 and it might disqualify from certain types of service well you know i i can appreciate where

00:17:37.620 they're going with the extension of this argument especially in the wake of what we've been seeing

00:17:41.160 now in in the states and you know to to a certain degree also up in canada it's just that you know

00:17:47.600 when when people who uh identify as trans whatever commit crimes at least in canada it tends not to 0.97

00:17:56.080 be with guns quite as much sure but um we're having that we're having that same problem up in canada now

00:18:00.540 yeah well you saw you saw yesterday jd vance visiting jd vance and his wife usha visiting the uh the site of

00:18:06.860 the shooting you know to pay their respects and that sort of thing and he had a quote that was quite

00:18:10.780 interesting where he talked about how we need to have a national conversation around some of these

00:18:15.020 you know psychological medications that people are taking um i had naomi best on the show thursday 1.00

00:18:19.840 who's you know a mental mental health expert really and she she broke down sort of these how easy it is

00:18:26.240 to access a lot of these these medications and these sorts of things and you kind of wonder if the

00:18:30.420 doj maybe should take a more of a look at that because i mean like you like you talked about the

00:18:34.900 disassociation that occurs with transgenderism where you know you're removing sort of your body or you're

00:18:40.200 separating putting a rift between your body and your mind your soul that sort of thing um a lot of

00:18:44.260 these a lot of these like psychiatric drugs do something very similar and a huge we've seen a

00:18:49.960 huge ramp up and and uh and prescriptions for these sorts of things well the admin is already heading

00:18:55.880 that way rfk coming out and saying look you guys want to focus on the guns uh i i think we should

00:19:02.280 talk about the ssris it it's not an if anybody who i've never taken them period full stop because i'm

00:19:08.200 i'm absolutely neurotic about what it might do when i was a kid and i used to suffer from migraines

00:19:13.880 the doctor said we'll prescribe you a low uh uh what's it called the things that like a type

00:19:18.160 sedative like an ativan type thing yeah yeah i said it's for it's for a migraine it's like well that

00:19:24.040 you know it relaxes you whatever it's like i don't want to take anything that tinkers with the brain

00:19:27.760 chemistry um these ssris there's a reason why on the on the uh side effects it says you know it might

00:19:35.260 increase the risk of suicidal ideations because it a it's you're messing with brain chemistry and

00:19:40.560 it's one thing to say like they know what it does they don't know what it does but they know it does

00:19:44.340 certain things uh you're messing with brain chemistry some people who have depressive thoughts

00:19:49.340 don't act on them uh because they lack the uh motivation for lack of a better word to do it then

00:19:55.540 they get on these these medications and they finally have the motivation to do now what they have wanted

00:20:00.460 to do or been contemplating doing so you know it increases the risk of these in a substantial

00:20:04.920 amount of people and the amount of kids that are jacked up on these things and i can tell you this

00:20:09.120 from my own experience now with the public schooling system it's insane and so it true you know someone

00:20:16.540 who kills someone with a gun necessarily they used a gun but what is what is causing this issue now it's

00:20:22.680 it's what's new versus what's not new whether or not guns have gotten more sophisticated guns have

00:20:28.320 always been around and they these shootings didn't exist 50 years ago period ssris have not existed for

00:20:34.160 50 years to the extent that they do do now yeah and so you just gotta you gotta look at where the

00:20:39.680 problem might actually be occurring uh but the normalization of mental illness in today's society

00:20:44.980 and not just normalization but glorification and glamorizing of it uh you know we've we've literally

00:20:51.460 entered the era of idiocracy where you don't treat mental illness you affirm mental illness and that is 0.89

00:20:57.280 exactly how you make it exponentially worse and we're seeing the consequences of it everywhere

00:21:01.080 and it's in the in the states they you know the left wants to go straight to the gun issue you look

00:21:06.960 up in canada we've got a number of very very prominent outrageous situations where i i don't even

00:21:12.820 think the guy in in quebec was bona fide trans but a man murders his wife and two kids uh says he's

00:21:17.920 trans and then there's a debate as to whether or not he gets to stay in a woman's facility

00:21:20.820 uh another the other story that just happened up in i don't know if you heard about this

00:21:25.220 uh up in welland ontario uh you know a psychotic individual uh sexually assaults a toddler by breaking

00:21:33.700 into the neighbor's house and on his facebook page it says uh she him and so you know i don't think

00:21:39.640 these are bona fide cases of transgenderism i think it's actually psychopaths now exploiting this movement 1.00

00:21:44.060 but what we have now is not just uh you know a normalization of mental illness but an absolute

00:21:49.660 glorification of it where you get people copycatting mental illness because it creates some sort of

00:21:54.600 social protection right yeah i mean you're you're seeing just you're just seeing this general um

00:22:00.280 you're seeing this general decline and and people people just aren't thinking clearly i mean jd vance

00:22:05.220 when he was there laying laying flowers as you had a group of of pro i would say protesters i guess

00:22:10.140 is what you i don't know what you would call these people just harassing them saying you know i'll do

00:22:14.280 something about this like you're a coward these sorts of things and you see that it's horrific and grim

00:22:18.740 because we're talking about children here and from most of the mainstream left you know pundit class 0.69

00:22:23.840 and even the politicians is there's almost an endorsement a soft endorsement of holding these

00:22:28.260 politicians accountable and it kind of gets back to our conversation of the direction the democrat

00:22:33.620 party is heading in it's like that kind of stuff is not only palatable but it's like it's emphasized

00:22:38.880 it's it's emphasized to um sort of behave this way within the democrat party who wouldn't like it i mean

00:22:46.080 who on the uh the end of what they consider to be the oppressed uh spectrum of of the world would

00:22:53.040 not love this where victimhood is the currency normalizing of what would otherwise be things

00:22:59.560 that you'd have to work on and treat and overcome now you don't have to now you get to be celebrated

00:23:03.880 for it and from the political perspective what is easier for a politician to do then uh you know

00:23:11.280 basically cater to uh the whims of the electorate without having to you know do anything meaningful

00:23:17.940 and watching the rfk hearings this morning like you have uh this party claiming to to support the science

00:23:26.200 when what they're doing is the antithesis of science for in in every respect but it's it's not

00:23:32.660 just politically palatable to many it's the easiest way to garner support by just saying it's okay

00:23:38.540 you're good and and and uh you know we'll affirm we'll affirm you as opposed to the tough love that

00:23:43.980 good parenting requires right now you have bad parenting in government which is bad government

00:23:47.640 not under the trump admin which is you know the tough parent but that's that's been the mo of the

00:23:53.020 democrat party for the last as long as i've been politically conscious absolutely and i mean that's a

00:23:58.660 great way to put it and you're seeing this tension in the democrat party where the guys that know how to

00:24:03.540 win elections the strategist started just pulling their hair out saying okay we need to moderate we we have to

00:24:07.760 moderate this has gone too far but the base of the democrat party wants more and more they're saying

00:24:12.560 these guys aren't left-wing enough i mean i even see people nipping at zoran's heels saying oh you

00:24:16.560 shouldn't concede on like police and that sort of thing and it's like yeah you're just seeing this

00:24:20.320 massive rift between strategists and and the base i mean well you can you can never you can never

00:24:26.960 placate people who want merit without the work i mean that's the the more you give the more they're

00:24:31.360 gonna i don't know if avares is the word in england it's just gonna be greed rapaciousness like

00:24:37.420 the more you give those who don't deserve it or who haven't earned it the more they think they're

00:24:41.860 entitled to it and the more they're going to demand in the future yeah uh but no it's i you know i'd

00:24:46.520 like to say it's gotten bad enough we're sort of reached the the pinnacle of the insanity i think when

00:24:51.400 you when you started promoting not just as as normal but as morally required men and women's sports i

00:24:57.340 think that's when it started turning for a lot of people but you know uh as i say when you fight

00:25:03.860 corruption corruption fights back and the very vocal minority that had hitherto been getting their

00:25:08.400 way simply by being a vocal minority when they stop getting their way uh they're going to get

00:25:13.100 more vocal and uh more radical in their in their tactics and and that i think unfortunately is what

00:25:19.180 we're seeing at the political scale is these these radical minorities getting more radical more vocal

00:25:24.360 and uh more violent and more destructive absolutely i mean you see this way the way politics operates

00:25:30.840 because the anglosphere i mean obviously the united states does its own thing they run they run

00:25:35.740 they're we're vaguely the same culture but the united states often bucks trends they're very clear

00:25:40.260 right now we have a very right wing um administration but to a degree like they do track in certain ways

00:25:45.680 you do see some commonality and you saw in canada where with trudeau it was just basically as bad as

00:25:49.980 it could get and all it took was was just stirring up vibes a little bit an anti-pierre vibe who was

00:25:56.040 clearly the competent choice to get carny through the door i mean it's like i know canada is obviously

00:26:02.360 not you know directly comparable to the united states but it's very there's a lot of similarities

00:26:05.520 and it's like i i could see a situation in the united states where like yeah short-term memory um

00:26:11.780 people vote on vibes and we get a similar situation that you saw in canada i mean it's it could very

00:26:16.720 easily happen no no for sure and like and incidentally in any realm of the universe when you're talking

00:26:22.060 about you know the lefty radicals getting more violence in any other realm of the universe where

00:26:26.380 on you know july 13 in butler pennsylvania the the dude doesn't miss the shot we're in kamala harris

00:26:33.200 canada 2.0 on steroids and it is it is amazing politically you know by the by the national

00:26:40.940 zeitgeist canada is out there with australia england seems to be pushing back a little bit now but i

00:26:47.740 think it either is too little too late or just not enough right now right uh america has always

00:26:53.300 been the beacon and it's always been the exception but it's only by an actual miracle that it's where

00:26:57.980 we are where we are now because in any other realm of the universe um that day turns out differently and

00:27:03.700 the history goes down i mean it goes to hell in a handbasket yeah um but no what is what is crazy is

00:27:11.300 just canada is the living example of what happens when state-funded media has no meaningful

00:27:17.420 opposition from what we call alternative media yeah it's it people don't really appreciate it

00:27:23.460 why pierre poilievre lost that election it's due in large part to his own political cowardice

00:27:29.900 sure but it's it's due also in large part to the monopoly that legacy media has over the minds the

00:27:37.520 hearts the souls via the media up in canada state-funded media that you know amplifies or doesn't what it

00:27:44.980 wants to amplify and ignores or suppresses that which it doesn't even want to give breathing air

00:27:50.020 to and that's basically what they did to pierre poilievre and he didn't do himself any favors but

00:27:54.560 uh you know at least in america there's a vibrant populist movement there's a vibrant popular a vibrant

00:28:00.060 populist base and meaningful alternative media that i dare say is you know has a broader reach than the

00:28:07.360 legacy media you just don't have that in canada you don't have that in australia yeah you don't really

00:28:11.820 have that in the uk and you can see how it very it's very very easy to control and manipulate

00:28:16.720 entire swaths of people when you have basically a monopoly on information absolutely i mean that

00:28:22.500 you hit the nail on the head there well i mean i imagine the majority of people know where to find

00:28:26.800 you but for those who don't who want more where can people find you well i made it into a daily

00:28:30.600 mail article because i was mildly critical of the uh i was highlighting the epstein uh missing minute

00:28:36.040 yesterday which oh i i i just want to tell me if the guy in that missing minute was the guy who

00:28:41.700 was one of the two um prison guards that was sanctioned over their negligence but either way

00:28:45.780 i'm on the internet viva fry if you google it you'll find me i'm live on rumble at three o'clock

00:28:50.440 daily that's my time in the time slot uh twitter is the viva fry because there's some russian dude who

00:28:56.280 had viva from way back and uh viva barnes law dot locals dot com is our uh locals community and it's

00:29:03.380 one of the best communities out there so those are all my socials awesome mr fry thank you so much

00:29:07.980 we'll uh see you next time absolutely thank you for having me sir well that was viva fry the legend

00:29:12.960 there viva fry it's so good to have him in there give us thoughts um yeah i mean painting that picture

00:29:17.700 of of you know where this could go where if what avenues the left has regaining power that's not a

00:29:23.440 prediction that's certainly it's a nightmare obviously but um that's to say is we still are on

00:29:28.660 a razor's edge right the trump administration so much promising things happening obviously

00:29:32.480 it is the most right-wing administration certainly of my lifetime and people far older than me's

00:29:36.840 lifetimes but it does i just want to illustrate how quickly um like i said earlier you can't

00:29:43.880 underestimate the um the uh incompetence of the american electorate right this is a country that

00:29:49.760 almost half voted for for kamala harris so we we still are on a razor's edge we can't take her foot 1.00

00:29:55.060 off the gas especially with the midterms coming up you just can't you can't you can't get complacent

00:29:59.160 you always need to be aware of threats and these sorts of things so that's what i was interesting

00:30:02.480 so thanks thanks to viva that was excellent um yeah with that i think we'll wrap up here um i've
