Hello, everybody, and welcome to the Culture War podcast.
00:01:40.940
We're going to be talking about Donald Trump's victory and why Gen Z men went for Donald Trump
00:01:49.380
So if you guys want to go ahead and introduce yourself, Luke.
00:01:51.460
I am Luke Beasley, a liberal political commentator, and just recently started an oppositional show
00:01:58.040
with Isabella Moody, who's here with us as well, called The Grudge, where we bicker and argue
00:02:11.740
We have a lot of fun there, but it's kind of cool because not enough people on different
00:02:15.260
sides of the aisle sit in the same room and actually talk these issues out.
00:02:19.520
So it's a lot of fun, and we definitely get heated on there.
00:02:30.500
I'm really happy to beat up on a leftist today since they never show up.
00:02:36.920
I really do appreciate you being here, but let's get into it.
00:02:41.220
All right, so we were talking a little bit before we got started.
00:02:46.340
We were talking about some of the repercussions from having Donald Trump win as opposed to
00:02:54.920
There's a lot of people that are on the right that people on the right would consider being
00:03:03.860
A lot of people were questioning whether free speech was actually under attack by the
00:03:11.740
So why don't you go ahead and articulate your position, Luke?
00:03:15.920
About whether or not people were being persecuted?
00:03:19.580
So when we were talking before the show, we were talking about how I was saying how I
00:03:23.400
want to punish the left the way that they punished the right.
00:03:32.420
Like I live in Philadelphia, and you couldn't have a Trump sticker on your car because they
00:03:39.860
They would physically harm you or say things to you or be nasty to you.
00:03:43.980
We had like elected representatives saying like, you know, attack these, not attack these
00:03:49.400
I was just to confront these people at the street, at the gas station, in the grocery
00:03:56.380
And we felt like we were getting kicked off of every social media platform.
00:04:00.000
I was considered a quote hate agent on Facebook and was like not allowed to have one, period.
00:04:08.460
I just posted a picture on the thing and they canceled it forever.
00:04:11.880
It wasn't until I got my, I went to work for the Hill again and got my congressional email
00:04:19.560
It was almost like, you know how you guys accuse us of being in a cult all the time?
00:04:25.460
Like if, if, if you, you can't be friends with any right wing people, you can't agree
00:04:32.240
If you're all not on the same page, it's a problem where like, we can at least criticize
00:04:41.860
Like we're willing to talk to you and we're not, we don't like threaten you with violence
00:04:45.800
and you can bring up January 6th or whatever, but it really felt like.
00:04:50.120
Yeah, but if it really felt like if you were on the, if you were on the right, you were
00:04:56.160
Can you see that in your comment section about me?
00:04:58.080
So, uh, first off, political violence of any kind, if you're saying that someone attacks
00:05:02.020
your car or something because there's a MAGA sticker, that's insane.
00:05:05.420
It is important to remember that the data show that right wing political violence is far
00:05:15.980
That's an instance of political violence, but, but what you need to understand
00:05:20.120
about something I've explained to Isabel before is that to understand our political analysis
00:05:24.500
of two different relevant, prominent leaders, you have to at least limit it for some logical
00:05:30.460
discussions to the leaders we're talking about, not vibes and abstract perceptions of an entire
00:05:36.360
because on any side, people will do crazy abstract, but in the case of like, look at the BLM
00:05:42.600
Like that's the case of largely left wing active.
00:05:44.880
And Democrats believed that if you committed crimes, you should be held accountable for
00:05:52.620
Unlike Trump actually wanting to pardon people who were violent on January 6th, but I will
00:05:56.900
say, in the case of Trump, I'm all for protecting free speech.
00:06:01.180
Y'all will sometimes mix up social media censorship, which if you have a platform, you're on the
00:06:05.940
platform and you have terms of service, we can debate about what those terms of service
00:06:09.200
should be, but that's not the same as government infringement.
00:06:13.720
I'm just going to complete my point really quickly.
00:06:16.440
It's already getting heated, not even five minutes in.
00:06:19.020
And then finally, I've never heard Vice President Harris advocate for censorship, whereas Trump
00:06:23.960
literally said the government should come down hard on MSNBC.
00:06:27.160
See, that's your leader of your movement, not just some random person out on social media.
00:06:32.620
Kamala Harris absolutely said that she was going to look into expropriating Twitter from
00:06:44.980
Lost his privilege because he was being, I guess the way that she phrased it was he wasn't
00:06:59.240
There was, that is a direct quote, lost, like I said, lost his privilege.
00:07:07.500
If you can find her advocating government, you know.
00:07:12.280
They had a portal at Twitter where the FBI could tender people.
00:07:16.880
No, not, it doesn't matter that it was under Trump.
00:07:19.360
I'm just saying, you're talking about something that since social media platforms have existed.
00:07:23.060
It doesn't matter because the FBI, it should not, the FBI should, it does not matter.
00:07:27.560
The FBI is not in a position to tell private companies who they should and shouldn't censor.
00:07:33.560
So I'm asking you, you're saying that Trump's administration was engaging in illegal behavior?
00:07:37.680
I'm telling you, the FBI, and it doesn't matter if it was Trump's administration.
00:07:45.200
There has always been between private and public entities, communication, sharing of information
00:07:55.560
You're absolutely obfuscating the point of the-
00:08:00.280
Listen, I'm saying that I agree if the FBI said, we're going to punish you, Twitter or
00:08:05.580
Facebook or something, if you don't censor stuff we want you to censor, that would be
00:08:10.340
Them going also under the Trump administration because Trump was upset that some actress
00:08:14.580
called him a mean word, and they went and requested, hey, we think this violates your
00:08:20.620
terms of service, which anyone with connections at Twitter can do.
00:08:25.440
And then what we've seen is the percentages of the actual posts they end up taking down
00:08:29.760
proves that they're not feeling threatened, because a lot of the ones that the government
00:08:32.560
will go, hey, is this against your terms of service?
00:08:34.660
Like, I guess the FBI example, then the social media platforms don't even do it.
00:08:38.620
So they're not even being pressured enough to do all the requests.
00:08:41.480
If there were pressure, then I would agree with you.
00:08:46.800
Just the existence of an FBI, of the FBI saying, hey, you should do this.
00:08:57.000
You don't hold that principle on a bunch of other things.
00:09:02.600
I was explaining this to Isabella the other day, right?
00:09:06.320
And sometimes we would have to advocate for our constituents to, say, like American Airlines
00:09:15.480
And when we did that, we had to make sure we said, can you give this request consideration,
00:09:21.880
However, even though we put that stipulation in there, we knew by the government coming to
00:09:26.620
ask them that we were exerting pressure because they're like, oh, a congressman asked for
00:09:33.200
And what happens is, is that they know that if you have histories of not complying, that
00:09:38.020
they can come and like investigate your business.
00:09:42.400
The DOJ, don't they have an open investigation under X right now?
00:09:45.260
I would love to flesh out that principle because it feels like you really limitedly apply it.
00:09:51.120
For example, Trump, because he doesn't like certain coverage saying CBS should be taken
00:09:55.520
off the air, ABC should be taken off the air, and saying the MSNBC should be targeted
00:10:08.880
I just pulled it up, but I'm seeing here that like it's a fact check, not totally accurate.
00:10:16.140
And you, Callan, I put it in the thing, but you can look.
00:10:19.180
So I'm sure there's some random lefties who are too pro-censorship and stuff like that,
00:10:22.720
but I'm looking at people in positions of power because then I know that they're actually
00:10:26.520
Trump's the only one I've heard overtly calling for censorship, which is why he would be the
00:10:31.560
Okay, so here's what I want to say to that, right?
00:10:34.380
When I tell you that like mass people, and they've shown data to support this, were being
00:10:41.600
If you look at the data, there is another graph too that shows now that Elon Musk bought
00:10:56.900
That is because they were deactivating so many accounts.
00:11:01.360
A lot of it's because of liberals not using the platform anymore.
00:11:05.900
So what, they went to Blue Sky in the last month?
00:11:07.560
Like there's been analyses that have demonstrated that it's because right-wingers violate the
00:11:13.340
Now you could say the term of service should be different, and that's totally fine.
00:11:16.320
And I have issues with term of service sometimes whenever videos of mine get taken down or whatever.
00:11:19.960
But that's different than the left or Democrats have some partnership platform.
00:11:27.260
I mean, the point that I'm making though is when you say violate the terms of service,
00:11:31.900
this goes, speaks to something that actually Tim.
00:11:33.580
Climate change, a problem so huge, how could I ever make a difference?

00:13:02.380
Tim made a point about when he was on the Joe Rogan podcast, right?
00:13:06.660
So if you say, like if you make remarks about trans people, if you say, if you deadname someone,
00:13:12.580
that is something that you could get, you could lose your Twitter account, you could get locked out for deadnaming.
00:13:17.920
But that isn't because of, that's an ideological position.
00:13:22.020
That's not like if you say, oh, you're violating the terms of service because you're harassing someone
00:13:31.860
And the things, the terms of service were so big.
00:13:36.880
If the terms of service are, if the people making the judgment about the terms of service are ideologically.
00:13:49.360
All of that's going to be completely subjective, obviously.
00:13:52.280
And by the way, they only target people on the right.
00:13:54.500
The only way that you can make this a constitutional issue is if you, like, nationalized social media platforms.
00:14:02.780
the government trying to use a third party to censor is illegal as well.
00:14:07.720
And that's something that the Supreme Court has found.
00:14:09.340
So if the government is pressuring social media companies to block people or to, you know,
00:14:16.080
boot them off the platform, that's a violation of their constitutional rights, too.
00:14:23.880
You're also not really making a right or left issue because that's something that the
00:14:31.240
So it sounds like you're from the Democratic Party.
00:14:37.160
Because I remember a few years ago, congressional Democrats putting pressure on social media
00:14:43.260
And even just right before the 2024 election, Adam Schiff, what did Trump call him?
00:14:51.680
He demands social media companies take action in advance of 2024 election to address spread
00:14:56.200
of election misinformation, which they also did with COVID.
00:14:59.280
They were censoring doctors and anyone that had different opinions regarding the efficacy
00:15:11.460
You're circling, circling, circling, not addressing.
00:15:15.840
Do you consider like social media, the town square at this point in our given digital
00:15:22.380
Like back in the day, think about like in the 1800s, everybody go to the corner and talk,
00:15:26.360
And if you removed somebody from that square and they couldn't talk anymore, right, then
00:15:31.680
you would be violating their first amendment right, right?
00:15:34.760
Like they can't, oh, you can't, you're not allowed to say that like here on the street
00:15:40.440
Like right now, our street corner, where our public discourse is being done, is being
00:15:45.920
So if they, they're trying to have it both ways, they're trying to say, everybody can
00:15:50.020
speak here and, and they're putting these arbitrary rules in, which, you know, sometimes
00:15:59.180
They're either the town square or they're a private company.
00:16:03.240
Legally, not the town square, even though I agree they have a huge impact in our political
00:16:08.140
And so until we fundamentally change our laws again, you could only do it if you nationalize,
00:16:13.080
you're going to have private companies, just like a business that you walk in and you can't
00:16:16.680
wear it without shoes or you can't go to the store without certain attire on.
00:16:20.080
Now, they're going to be able to regulate their own platforms just in our, in our, uh, free
00:16:29.840
If you're upset with the dead, we were advocating Jason Fick is trying to like, um, tackle two
00:16:34.380
30 right now and he actually advocate away, but y'all then attach this to the political
00:16:38.540
parties in a way that makes no sense when only one of the political parties candidate actually
00:16:52.260
It's, it's fine to make a point, but then you followed up the blatant lie.
00:16:57.280
No, the only one party, only one party advocates for, for, for, for, it's the most ridiculous
00:17:03.160
blatant lie that I've heard in this, in this kind of, uh, forum that I think ever.
00:17:07.820
I use the word censorship really, really, um, specifically.
00:17:11.880
So I'm talking about governmental censorship and that's what you haven't demonstrated, but
00:17:15.480
I have demonstrated that Trump has governmental, there's a portal.
00:17:18.260
There has been, there has been like an actual congressional investigation into it.
00:17:22.720
Public and private entities will communicate all the time about so many things.
00:17:27.220
Zuckerberg came out and said he's self-censored.
00:17:28.540
As long as he's making an apology for it is not the same as saying it doesn't happen.
00:17:31.720
But again, so then you're just as upset at the Republican party, the Democratic party?
00:17:35.580
You're mad at Trump because Trump's administration did that too?
00:17:40.840
As a matter of fact, I disagree with Lisa on that.
00:17:53.300
And there was a whole congressional investigation.
00:17:58.420
Oh, and there were definitely things done wrong in the, um, no, no.
00:18:01.020
He was talking about, yeah, in that time people overstepped on social media and the
00:18:07.500
But it was, it was largely, it was largely geared towards people on the right being censored.
00:18:17.940
So, so they were, the right was being censored.
00:18:24.340
They targeted, the IRS targeted, the IRS targeted how many people with conservative groups
00:18:44.140
I thought we were about to go to the 87,000 IRS talking point.
00:18:48.140
This is the IRS when they, they, they targeted religion.
00:18:50.760
Anybody that's had like Patriot or Christian or God or Jesus in their 501 C3 applications,
00:18:57.840
they were totally pushed off so that they couldn't financially.
00:19:01.480
I'm almost certain that's not true, but what are you talking about?
00:19:06.660
I can't believe you just said the IRS targets conservative scandal.
00:19:15.400
They were kicking people out of being nonprofits.
00:19:22.420
Bring that up on the specific 501 C3s that had these buzzwords, like they were putting
00:19:26.960
the pressure on them or if other ones, they didn't get it.
00:19:40.140
An exhaustive report released by the Treasury Department's Inspector General in 2017 found
00:19:44.160
that from 2004 to 2013, the IRS used both conservative and liberal keywords to choose
00:19:50.920
The thing, wait, wait, wait, wait, just because you're going for the first, read the whole thing
00:19:55.620
if you want to, if you want to talk about the whole thing, then read the whole thing.
00:19:59.440
Don't get to one line that says that it wasn't just one, that it wasn't just one.
00:20:03.200
It says some liberal groups were selected, but, but it was overwhelmingly conservative.
00:20:13.260
It was, it was, it was overwhelmingly conservative and it was, it was to the point where they
00:20:17.880
admitted that they did it and that it was wrong.
00:20:28.580
So anyway, I feel like I have been persecuted, right?
00:20:36.340
That's crazy you brought the heat and then pulled up that article.
00:20:44.680
I didn't say the Wikipedia was the one to bring up.
00:20:46.880
But the point that I'm making, to bring up Wikipedia and say that Wikipedia, which is
00:20:51.460
notoriously left-leaning, which is unquestionably notoriously left-leaning.
00:21:04.000
Just because you don't recall it happening, doesn't mean that it didn't happen.
00:21:07.020
None of these letters call for the targeting of groups on the basis of political ideology.
00:21:30.020
Under the Peace and Unity President Obama who like increased race-
00:21:38.320
Because they were using political keywords as the other thing noted.
00:21:46.400
According to the report, actions taken to change the criteria, right?
00:21:49.340
But it was because conservatives were complaining.
00:21:57.760
But it wasn't exclusively that showing it wouldn't be-
00:22:00.780
Sometimes, like, y'all do this thing where the outcome of something means the intention
00:22:11.400
They have these intentions, but it actually does the opposite of an outcome.
00:22:13.240
As a random example, if you put a bunch of political keywords, there might be, I don't
00:22:16.280
know, more nonprofits that associate with the right wing that use those over keywords.
00:22:18.980
Well, if you use terms like patriot, I mean, the left doesn't typically consider themselves
00:22:25.440
Because they're trying to find, right, you couldn't have certain tax-exempt status if you
00:22:30.260
are politically active is why they were going after, right?
00:22:37.180

Yeah, maybe more political buzzwords were used in nonprofits and that was easier to find.
00:24:13.900
Again, or maybe something was done wrong as well.
00:24:17.700
But I don't know how that at all bolsters the point y'all are making.
00:24:22.640
Yeah, the government targets conservatives more than the targets left.
00:24:25.560
Another thing that I want to actually go back to.
00:24:28.500
You mentioned the right doesn't do, or the right is where political violence.
00:24:45.960
There's no excuse for the agency's treatments of these groups.
00:24:49.160
And they specifically apologize for aggressive scrutiny of conservative groups.
00:24:53.040
It was more heavily skewed towards conservatives.
00:25:00.560
For the purpose of going after conservatives as opposed to.
00:25:29.720
By using certain political buzzwords to make sure that.
00:25:35.600
They were disproportionately harming conservative groups.
00:25:37.820
So then they apologized because of a bunch of uproar.
00:25:41.980
This conservatives are just sick and tired of the gaslighting from the left that we're
00:26:08.540
And this girl that was like a party planner came up.
00:26:27.000
I was walking through the halls of community college.
00:27:06.340
I don't want single parents to adopt the kids either.
00:27:10.540
We didn't care about all these social issues that much.
00:27:21.020
I'm sorry that people were treating you some type of way.
00:27:26.020
I would love to show you how MAGA folks treat me.
00:27:43.120
Of on either side people being totally out of line.
00:28:01.060
And we're going to fear and mongrel constantly.
00:28:11.660
Or the stuff that I get on to Isabella for saying that is super hateful.
00:28:15.240
And going after people based on their identity.
00:28:21.340
But then whenever people respond and are upset with you for having that ideology.
00:28:28.720
But another thing another thing I want to point out is this idea that you can't really
00:28:33.740
When I when Trump won the first time I was in college and they literally shut down all
00:28:39.480
There were major just like protests like riots in this major college campus University
00:28:45.600
It's like that doesn't happen when a Democrat wins.
00:28:47.280
So what does that signal to conservatives like me on campus?
00:28:51.520
What do you mean that doesn't happen when Democrats win?
00:28:56.240
I would much rather even though I don't want to eat.
00:29:03.500
But they shut down all classes because Trump won.
00:29:09.800
You said that doesn't happen when Democrats win.
00:29:11.800
To block the certification of an election would be a little bit more destructive than
00:29:21.000
I want you to talk about another time that there were riots when a Democrat won.
00:29:56.520
They specifically said this is for health care.
00:30:02.540
Probably when this gets uploaded we'll know more about that.
00:30:10.320
It was it was it was it was an anti-capitalist type kind of thing because of the the writing
00:30:19.320
I mean it was horrible no matter what the motivation was.
00:30:21.240
But the thing that y'all have a hard time getting your head around is the difference
00:30:25.180
between these examples that get focused a lot and focus a lot on availability and actual
00:30:31.180
studies that study this to look at the studies are like this.
00:30:35.300
Is this that this person ever say anything hateful about black people and then all of
00:30:44.800
We go through a process to figure out what the motivation obviously what the motive of
00:30:50.380
And if they have evidence that it was politically motivated then it's classified that then we
00:30:54.800
categorize and we learn that oh left wing violence is far less prevalent.
00:31:00.800
Can you articulate what they what anyone means by left by right wing violence.
00:31:05.140
Like when when you when you hear when you hear when you hear the argument or the the
00:31:10.380
the statistics saying oh it's right wing violence.
00:31:12.440
Can you articulate what they mean by right wing violence motive not by violence.
00:31:17.980
I'm I'm you articulate can you articulate what the right wing what the right way what
00:31:23.080
the the motivation was that falls under right wing.
00:31:27.280
So when I when I like so when I say like being associated with for example white supremacist
00:31:34.700
Well there how frequently are white supremacist attacks going on.
00:31:38.260
I'm assuming that's why you're bringing this up is because you're going to dispute them
00:31:41.160
No listen if you're going to ask a question so I'm explaining that I agree whenever I
00:31:47.680
start going through and explaining what the different instances of right wing violence
00:31:51.040
might be it might be anti government from a right wing perspective it might be a racist
00:31:56.140
driven attacks you're going to go well that's not right wing that's just crazy and but the
00:32:00.860
same thing happens on the left if it's anything that's left of center as an ideology they
00:32:03.960
categorize as a left wing attack do you think it's like how I don't associate with people
00:32:07.100
who looted during black lives matter you know okay well here's a question though but that
00:32:11.420
doesn't dispute at all what I'm saying do you think that the the riots that were happening
00:32:15.560
during black lives matter do you think those count as left wing violence yeah the people
00:32:19.980
who yeah of course okay so how many instances of right wing violence well let me clarify
00:32:23.880
people who got violent who were doing it on behalf of left like they were doing it to
00:32:29.700
send a message about how stuff is messed up with police or something those would be categorized
00:32:34.760
as such a lot of people who were committing crimes though just knew there were going to be
00:32:38.300
a lot of um protests and so they sort of took advantage of the moment that happens every time
00:32:42.600
there's unrest people will go and loot and they're not a part of the political ideology at all
00:32:47.160
uh but what how many largely would you consider let me ask my question you think that it's
00:32:51.320
likely the people that were looting were conservatives what I said do you think it's like
00:32:56.080
some might be apolitical some might be people were taking advantage of the situation one's
00:32:59.880
rioting over george floyd's if anyone was rioting you're not even even trying to hear what
00:33:05.640
I'm saying I'm admitting people who committed violence on behalf of a left-wing ideology then
00:33:12.140
should be categorized as left-wing extremists who committed left-wing violence which they will be
00:33:16.380
and that's still not as prevalent not even close to uh right-wing political my turn okay my turn
00:33:22.120
that's not my opinion I'm just talking about the research on that you're talking about
00:33:25.580
research I want you to name for me three instances that you can think of three separate instances
00:33:30.500
of right-wing political violence okay three the uh mark kelly's wife who's mark kelly the arizona
00:33:41.060
senator i mean who that is yeah what happened that and oh that was when that was when and then wait
00:33:49.080
climate change a problem so huge how could I ever make a difference I'm marco chalnovet climate

00:35:20.840
but all pelosi january's and then january as a few examples wasn't actually let's get to that
00:35:26.440
because you think you're being really smug about this do you understand why it's bad to try to block
00:35:30.280
the peaceful transfer power okay no hold on i'm smug about this because not because you don't care
00:35:35.400
about maintaining the core process i don't know anything about what i care about so i don't know
00:35:41.060
where your tone makes it very clear you don't care that my tone comes from the fact that you had
00:35:46.200
continue bringing up january 6th over and over and over and over it's not just about that day
00:35:50.880
would you like me to explain it to you yes whenever someone loses an election and doesn't have any
00:35:55.780
overwhelming evidence or any evidence at all of outcome determinative voter fraud and then
00:36:00.960
justifies and i can't wait for you to pull the thing that i know you're going to pull up
00:36:04.140
every person thinks they're going to do what i'm saying by pulling it up and i'll say it doesn't
00:36:08.220
at all refute it but then you go through multiple allegedly illegal schemes that now he's not going
00:36:13.440
to be prosecuted for because he's becoming president but to block the peaceful transfer power just forget
00:36:17.800
january 6th for a second the fake elector scheme that she wanted to talk about is an example of him
00:36:22.920
trying to get unlawful people who did sign forms saying we're the lawful electors and then he was
00:36:28.700
pressuring mike pence to accept those as the real electorate so that trump could stay president
00:36:33.700
despite losing the election going through the the the details about the january 6th the things that
00:36:39.900
led up to january 6th the the illegal actions that led up to january 6th as opposed to the political
00:36:45.140
violence so you're bringing up the bat right so when you talk why do you keep bringing up i'm explaining
00:36:50.120
it's actually not just about the violence the more consequential democratically thing i have a question
00:36:54.820
is uh the illegal schemes or or trying to get the uh brad raffensperger yes this is what i want to
00:37:00.240
talk about yeah she's about to intellectually commit right-wing violence how many so so you're having a
00:37:04.400
problem with democrats um a not admitting the election like hillary clinton did say that the
00:37:10.600
election was stolen she always says russia russia russia russia illegitimate right and then we had
00:37:16.020
actual members of congress just do you want to explain or can i just explain why that's why that's not at
00:37:20.900
all why is it not the same i'm not bringing up even though i think it was vile because they were doing it
00:37:24.580
because of lies i'm not bringing up the fact that senators objected or congress people objected the
00:37:29.160
results that actually is a power they have in congress i'm talking about fraudulent electors
00:37:33.760
the fact that that distinction is not one that y'all understand there's semantics
00:37:37.440
semantics what are you saying what are you saying it's okay for democrats okay object to election
00:37:43.680
results let me explain the electoral college to you so this you're talking about the certification
00:37:48.320
of the electoral count correct we got you're saying political violence not because of procedural stuff
00:37:53.980
that's not what you're talking about which one would you like me to address we got here because
00:37:57.380
of political violence and you moved it to procedure multiple times have taken shots about my fixation
00:38:02.680
on january 6 which i'm fixated so that's why i want to talk about it and to your point you're
00:38:07.460
talking about whenever members of congress which is a part of their constitutional authority it's bad
00:38:12.700
to wield that authority when you don't have a basis to but they do have the ability to object to the
00:38:17.740
electoral count the constituents on january 6th were asking their representatives lord to do that
00:38:23.240
that's what that was okay and i haven't brought up once members of congress uh objecting why do you
00:38:28.480
think the people were there the people were wanting their elected members to do that they're asking them
00:38:32.700
that's why they're protesting you're mixed you're completely mixing up two completely different
00:38:36.740
things altogether that is the electoral count being certified i'm talking about a president getting
00:38:45.040
people to assert themselves as the electors the actual electors not let's dispute the certification
00:38:52.700
of the election but let's get illegal electors counted as the electoral college please tell me
00:38:58.920
that separation makes sense that makes sense but okay that's what trump tried to do that's not what
00:39:03.080
he tried to do it is so overwhelmingly that he doesn't even deny it he no he's asking people he said
00:39:10.540
this was a fraudulent election and and and no stop bringing up congress i'm saying i'm not saying that
00:39:15.440
individuals who've been prosecuted in certain states for being fraudulent electors they literally signed
00:39:20.820
forms saying i am the dutifully elected elector from the state of wisconsin and he asked people to do
00:39:25.320
that that's what you're saying he got them where where's the evidence and then what do you think
00:39:28.320
he wanted mike pence to do what do you think he wanted mike pence to do you want mike pence to do
00:39:31.540
read two indictments that's where the evidence is he wants he wants him to assert his power like congress
00:39:36.280
and not and not certify the election he wanted mike he has the ability to say he was counting
00:39:41.200
the non-electors that weren't lawfully sent by the states let let me say random people do you know
00:39:47.840
how many do you know it's crazy y'all are okay with that imagine that's what biden started doing
00:39:51.840
wait a minute are you were you understand wait a minute is that crazy i'm fascinated by the fact
00:39:56.180
that this this are this conversation has turned to january 6th wait were you i will talk about this
00:40:02.000
every time until y'all admit you will try to block the peaceful transfer power is bad yes
00:40:06.380
will you admit that boarding up the wall because yes i will one particular thing that you we were
00:40:12.000
talking about political violence and now we've turned we've trained from political violence that
00:40:17.720
on the left versus the right to procedure about january 6th yeah procedure oh okay let's just let's
00:40:25.880
all take a breath together first you cannot change the you're you're trying to deflect the fact
00:40:31.100
that you went from we were talking about violence and you changed you are the one who brought up
00:40:34.800
january 6th when i alluded to that violence because no you're the one that brought up january 6th
00:40:39.420
because she asked you for three options and i gave one of them was january 6th and so we talked we
00:40:43.840
started i think that's the violence and one of the most notable and then you said well no let's talk
00:40:47.480
about the illegal actions of president trump yeah all right wait time out that's changing the subject
00:40:53.880
from political violence i said do you want to i said procedure that was i'm gonna i'm gonna you know why
00:40:58.920
though because you went all you can think about january 6th sorry i don't want to do your voice
00:41:02.480
that's that's silly uh and and i went and i was he has to do that because we know that that left-wing
00:41:07.200
political violence is way more prevalent than the right wing that's why that's why i stopped talking
00:41:12.260
we have a physical transition of conversation to move on from that fact i know you were looking up
00:41:16.300
earlier can you show them the research on political violence because y'all keep really having a
00:41:22.400
difficult i want to see how they determine it anyway the two things that he mentioned before hold on a
00:41:27.180
second but we can name 30 you can barely name three hold on anyway wait i don't care about the
00:41:31.420
anecdotes i care about the thing hold on hold on hold on hold on hold on hey hold on the three
00:41:36.260
things that he mentioned right so there was the mark kelly's uh mark kelly's wife i forget what her
00:41:40.280
name was um where she was shot right um and then there was paul pelosi paul pelosi yep both of those
00:41:47.120
people they were as much as as much as he's going to say they were politically motivated it was it's likely
00:41:53.080
that they were not politically motivated in the same way are you actually kidding in this in the
00:41:57.880
stop stop stop stop the guy literally said i need to i need to make nancy pelosi answer stop for the
00:42:04.800
stolen election he literally said that stop what do you think that comes from stop lover paul pelosi
00:42:10.760
the the the paul pelosi's attacker and the other uh the other person i believe they were in their
00:42:16.240
under he was in his underwear or something so they were they were both mentally ill people
00:42:21.020
if they were politically motivated they were not politically they were not politically active
00:42:26.260
people that were that were involved in consistent um you know consistent political activities they
00:42:34.100
were both they were both wrong they were both absolutely wrong and they were both they both did
00:42:39.000
make remarks about politics but when you say that the the right is is more responsible for political
00:42:46.080
violence that's ignoring things like all of the bombings in the 70s by the by the weather underground
00:42:52.240
right the the multiple times that the two times in the 80s that congress itself was bombed the two
00:42:58.000
times that congress itself was bombed in the 80s that that that bill clinton went and uh let me know
00:43:04.880
when i can respond well the point that i'm making is you're saying that oh it's political violence when
00:43:11.460
you're dealing with individuals right that are you know obviously they're bad condemn it and they did
00:43:17.380
make remarks about politics but that's not the same thing as these things don't rise to the level of
00:43:23.060
an entire summer of political violence the murders that have happened by people on the left destroyed
00:43:29.540
like cities destroyed because who wants to move to a city included in the studies i'm talking but i also
00:43:33.720
want to point out that violence is just way more accepted on the left for example and i put this clip
00:43:38.740
as like the second link on the doc i sent you if we want to pull it up nick fuentes is banned off
00:43:42.420
so many things he doesn't actually literally say like you you should die and all these he makes
00:43:46.940
jokes and stuff but he destiny was dead serious he's still fine he's still on every single platform
00:43:51.320
because it's okay you can call for literal death as long as you're a left winger that's true okay it's
00:43:56.040
true can i just have like a little bit of just a little gap of time to quickly go through a couple
00:44:00.540
take it away luke don't let anybody interrupt first of all i totally agree
00:44:04.420
disgusting the destiny said that yes uh also i would love to explain at some point my framework
00:44:10.040
of random people online versus people in positions of power and the difference there that i agree
00:44:15.480
anyone across the pool spectrum advocating for violence would be bad uh to your point i i don't
00:44:21.180
know how to i don't really know where to go other than saying i've researched this over and over
00:44:26.020
and every time this is analyzed it just is the case even with the instances you're talking about
00:44:30.320
which i oppose uh that right-wing political violence is is more prevalent but then on why
00:44:35.860
i focus so much on january 6th and the trying to block the peaceful transfer power you did reference
00:44:40.500
you're obsessed with that which is why i want to explain why i'm obsessed with it because i don't
00:44:43.940
think any policy issue matters if we don't all agree on our democratic process and that's what trump
00:44:50.180
disputed trump actually thinks he should have had just gotten a second term even though he lost
00:44:53.780
election that's super anti-democratic the illegal schemes that we're having a difficult time
00:44:57.300
apparently understanding um are the ones that i'm pointing to to justify that and then is there
00:45:02.160
anything else that i should have an address from what you said let me just interact and then i would
00:45:05.560
love to talk about the political um rhetoric violence so let me just say something so what the data
00:45:10.200
that you're talking about that you researched are can you be honest about what the time frame was
00:45:14.720
because the time frame is between 1948 and 2022 that they were looking at it so we're not talking
00:45:20.320
about we're talking about political violence on the right that it was islamic extremists then it was
00:45:25.480
the right wing and then it was the left wing and that's over that broad span of time that's not
00:45:30.660
talking they like they they never broke it down into the the these recent years right since like 2008
00:45:37.280
and above like if you look at the data that's what they're looking at it says it here two years ago
00:45:42.020
i've seen all sorts of different time from four universities examined court records and other data
00:45:48.360
relating to 3 500 extremists um active events in the u.s between 1948 and 2022 and that's when they said
00:45:55.240
that they were split into three groups left wing right wing and related to islamic extremism um
00:46:00.540
and it said uh that the the most extremist was the right wing and then they they came in the left
00:46:07.520
wing came in a distant third and so when they're talking about like oh we have to be concerned about
00:46:12.700
left wing political violence they're they're talking about like over this like broad or do you mean
00:46:16.720
right wing political violence right wing right okay but they're talking about over this broad span of time
00:46:20.320
but if you look at it like we can name the summer of love there was a riot every whatever we can
00:46:25.880
we have nobody talks about um the church right and trump having to go into a bunker like that that's
00:46:31.320
fine by the left we can talk about we can't talk about the you're not aware of that that you don't
00:46:36.360
know i remember when he went to the bunker yeah right when he went into bunker and they were

00:48:10.880
building across the street that they did right um yeah you're not yeah but we're not we're not
00:48:14.580
talking about the shooting on i am i am talking about all those things let me keep going we're not
00:48:18.880
talking about the shooting well in general i'm talking the left in general seems to all social media
00:48:23.340
echo chamber is not going to contextualize the the stories you're talking about what context is
00:48:29.880
needed that they're like burning down buildings they're no that's not what i'm saying congressmen
00:48:34.080
are getting assaulted left and right right i'm just saying i don't really want to go off of
00:48:37.740
like the yeah and i oppose all of what happened like it's more prevalent like you can't in your
00:48:42.760
social media that's why we have in america research institutions so we can figure out if it's
00:48:49.300
just a live or if it's real institutions that back up whatever they want to say they can why do you
00:48:53.400
think they went back to 1948 right why do you think they you're talking about one go find any
00:48:57.800
other no this is the one that everybody quotes ap right you think one institution has no no they
00:49:03.540
used four institutions this is what this is saying so this is an ap article debunking the
00:49:08.400
heritage foundation leader was wrong to say that most of the violence is committed by the left and
00:49:12.260
they're they're they're all that their ap is citing over and over again are these studies these
00:49:17.100
four studies that they did that's what the whole left-wing media relies on is these it's not true
00:49:21.580
okay okay well then yeah find something that you pull it up but like that's where the the statistics
00:49:27.080
come from them analyzing these 3500 instances of political violence and so you have chas occupation
00:49:33.660
right you have um like we could just name them all at the top of our heads but you know you named me
00:49:40.120
three and the one was like barely anything but like you can't name 15 like i'm doing right like it is
00:49:46.300
that and you can't yeah so this one every night for months literally like one google don't get
00:49:52.220
obsessed with this because it's just the first thing that popped up um this one is not any of the
00:49:56.300
ones you referenced um what's it relying national institute of justice and this is since 1990 so
00:50:01.880
this is much more recent 1990 to 2020 wherever 2021 um maybe you could link it in the doc
00:50:09.640
and it's the same thing i don't know why it's fuck we can all just be like hey it happens
00:50:14.940
right-wing violence is more prevalent it is we're we're disputing that we're disputing that
00:50:19.900
the only thing oh my gosh it's welcome to social media you're not going to be shown it because you
00:50:25.180
don't want that no no you can't name it you can't okay i'll give you more examples please don't i want
00:50:30.380
you to need anecdotes so badly instead of just accepting data but fine fine so i can't give you
00:50:35.940
the particular names of the shooters but uh more often than not when there's a politically motivated
00:50:41.260
mass shooting it's a right-wing one it's against that's not true what about the one at that christian
00:50:44.980
school the trans they're activists definitely mass shootings are way more committed by the left i
00:50:49.400
think a lot of people find this really interesting the way that y'all's brains are working because
00:50:52.200
it's just going well what about this i don't deny those happened that's part of what's studied
00:50:56.980
our brains are overwhelmingly left wing you you're saying you need examples so i just gave you a lot of
00:51:02.220
the ones that i know y'all have covered on the show i'm sure that were um right-wing politically
00:51:07.500
motivated that were racist for example would be calculated on the other and then there are
00:51:12.920
left-wing political violence would you say that anything that's a racist that's a racist killing
00:51:17.800
is is automatically if it were premised on a right-wing idea like white supremacy is the please
00:51:23.280
please this is why i'm saying this is the most i mean i'm asking and i'm giving you i didn't know
00:51:27.900
if you were about to say all the white supremacy is i didn't i wasn't about to say anything at all
00:51:32.040
cool great well then yeah uh if it's a right-wing version racism whereas if it were someone who was
00:51:38.220
like a um a palestinian advocate who then crossed over and was anti-semitic and right that would be
00:51:44.880
left-wing right okay we agree there yeah oh here let me see do y'all want to say this who can i send
00:51:51.340
this to you you can just put it in the doc if you're on it i think we all have the same one so
00:51:56.160
we can all see that beautiful beautiful beautiful so anything else on that i know we have more to
00:52:02.940
talk about god we are we're all i feel so bad because we're all jumping over each other to get
00:52:06.800
at you you're totally outnumbered and i actually it's fun i'm sympathetic for some reason no we have
00:52:11.320
on the pitbull we have to give him some credit like coming he's pretty much doing a three-on-one
00:52:14.960
debate so it's yeah it's pretty why don't why don't we talk about that right yeah so the fact that
00:52:20.640
the the left has become oh wait can we can we pause before we go to that yeah
00:52:25.740
super important we have to make the distinction between like the leader of a movement versus
00:52:31.900
random people in the movement because when you divide the country into two sides there's going
00:52:35.160
to be lunatics on both sides so destiny is a good example of the stuff about him not caring if people
00:52:39.860
died at rallies insane but that's not the same as biden saying that or harris saying that but wait
00:52:44.380
but trump actually participated in the mocking of paul pelosi's attack so there's a difference in
00:52:49.320
democrats and positions of power aren't going to mock examples of uh attacks against right-wing
00:52:54.060
politicians but right-wing politicians have been mocking that's a lie to that point to that
00:52:58.400
to that point she mocked no i'm gonna put this but she's participating by saying you need to go out
00:53:05.680
i'd rather i'd rather and i don't i didn't like what she said that by the way but also beyond that
00:53:10.600
biden himself standing in uh standing up and saying that uh maga republicans are a threat to the very
00:53:17.380
soul of our country saying that the reason that he that he ran was because of the threat of white
00:53:22.960
nationalism because of charlottesville saying that the re saying that uh that americans are garbage
00:53:28.080
these are three things immediately walked that back it does i don't i don't care i didn't ask if
00:53:32.840
he walked it back i don't trump hasn't walked back calling people vermin and saying that they're the
00:53:37.140
enemy from within i don't care we you made a remark about trump and i and i acknowledged it and i i
00:53:42.960
didn't try to try to i didn't try to say that i apologize the point that i'm making is you can't
00:53:48.880
say that oh your guy does this and say that democrats don't when i just immediately listed
00:53:54.300
off three none of those examples were mocking political violence here this is mocking the
00:53:59.180
donald trump didn't mock uh pelosi it was his son did his son did but donald trump didn't pull it up
00:54:06.840
hold on just look up trump paul pelosi like on twitter i mocked it i mocked it yeah that's disgusting
00:54:12.760
yeah i did you know i did feel bad for him i did feel bad for him is funny to you no no no i didn't
00:54:18.340
mock that i just mocked that that's not what that was actually not the part that i mocked i mocked that
00:54:22.620
she's like for no borders and she has this like insane security system and a wall built around her
00:54:26.440
house and somehow magically this guy got in that's the part i was mocking so the the the left does
00:54:31.600
i don't want to see anybody hurt if you want to say that trump does bad things i can absolutely agree
00:54:36.120
with that there's i'm i'm not a trump guy like i voted for trump but i'm not like a maga guy i didn't i
00:54:42.180
didn't vote for trump in 2020 but um to say that it's only one side which is what it strongly feels
00:54:48.660
like you're implying uh i i would take issue with that and that's the reason that i push back on it
00:54:53.100
because it's not that only clarify then definitely not just one side that's why i'm saying what we
00:54:58.400
could discuss until we're blue in the face the examples of extreme people on both sides which is
00:55:03.360
definitely prevalent because it's difficult to know what's relevant within a really vast social media
00:55:08.380
ecosystem i like to focus on people in positions of power so when i compare biden and trump i don't
00:55:13.340
see the equivalency in the way they treat political okay so let's let's watch this real quick but that's
00:55:17.900
all i want to say about that we can move on tell him that's this last one oh wait did that will the
00:55:21.520
link still click yeah yeah uh oh well the clip you can press or just yeah yeah but just it's a one
00:55:27.180
it's real quick i think this is the right one what are you doing here i'm gonna show i'm gonna show
00:55:31.940
him something because he said leaders don't do this it's not biden it's not biden it's everybody no
00:55:36.460
oh is it a montage yeah i think i just oh here we go don't i wish i were debating him
00:55:41.840
no i wish you're in high school i could take him behind the gym
00:55:44.860
me that's what i wish okay keep going i said no i said oh wait this is i don't want to spite him but
00:55:49.780
there's i think there's maxine's on here no i i i Hillary's on her yeah they're all there aren't
00:55:53.540
uprisings all of the country maybe there will be that you cannot be civil with a political party that
00:55:59.880
wants to destroy what you stand for what you care about
00:56:04.320
if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant in a department store at a gasoline station
00:56:12.720
you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them and you tell them
00:56:19.260
so i think i think the point i think the point i haven't heard her say
00:56:22.120
unrest in the streets for as long as there's unrest in our lives enemies of the state show
00:56:27.060
me where it says that protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful insane so please get up in
00:56:32.800
the face of some congress people but the i think this hey kellen i think this doesn't stop i think
00:56:37.880
we made like the point's been made yeah but that's it is what i'm saying it is they're your elected
00:56:42.600
leaders saying okay democrat leaders don't call for violence it's only republicans point proven wrong
00:56:48.640
yeah i i do want to move on i do want to move because like i said i think yeah i think that i
00:56:53.580
think that the point has been made that both sides do it and it's something that we have to condemn
00:56:58.020
but yes so i think we need i want to talk about the fact that the left is now seems to be more open
00:57:06.020
to discussing um politics in general when and i think it's since the the election of donald trump
00:57:14.340
um for a long time it was don't engage don't give them if you engage with them they'll don't
00:57:21.080
actually yeah don't platform them right you're you're going to give them credibility and uh and
00:57:25.540
so i want to know your thoughts on that do you believe that it's that there is a change or do you
00:57:29.760
think that it's that this is kind of something that the left has always done and that we are
00:57:34.240
misrepresenting or misunderstanding reality oh uh definitely there's an issue i don't want to
00:57:41.080
overgeneralize there's always been people on the left who will engage but i totally agree there's
00:57:45.300
been a deficit of that and one of the things that infuriates me about the feedback we've received to
00:57:50.560
our show the grudge you can find it on luke beasley um on the channel that isabel and i are doing is a
00:57:55.780
lot of people if you get upset at something i'm saying or she's saying understandable i'm constantly
00:58:00.680
upset at what she's saying he cries a lot a lot of the feedback is the fact that we're even talking
00:58:06.400
you know and it's oh why that's from your side now our side will be yeah from our side it'll be
00:58:10.420
like oh wow he came on at least thankfully he came on they don't they don't discourage us from
00:58:15.680
talking to the left okay and it's definitely an issue with my side that i'm addressing here um
00:58:21.580
because i engage with them more often and for a long time especially with trump now winning the
00:58:27.040
second time i don't know how you make the argument if we ignore the ideology it goes away
00:58:30.840
insane uh so that's actually really upsetting me my hope is that more people will do this because
00:58:38.060
you know my belief is that we have the facts on our side so why not bring it out there and then the
00:58:43.200
idea that that you support an ideology by shining light on it i get that there are certain things you
00:58:51.000
want to be mindful about debating like if you're not a doctor you're not a professional and you're not
00:58:56.340
good at debating but you just throw yourself into a vaccine debate but you're not ready for someone
00:59:00.400

01:00:35.700
at least i don't i don't know why people make the don't platform argument that's strange yeah my thing
01:00:39.920
is is that i actually think that the i think that you're like if you're worried about right-wing
01:00:44.640
extremism i feel like the left actually made people more extreme by isolating them so i feel like i have
01:00:52.540
shifted from like a more libertarian mindset to a very far right ideology like and that has been
01:00:59.480
within the last five ten years right like five years more five years right five six years i've
01:01:05.000
definitely made a hard right-wing turn and i really feel like that is because i like that the left
01:01:11.600
radicalized me and i feel like if you i i would even say that i'm i'm slightly radicalized and it's
01:01:16.660
because we were demonized ostracized don't talk to them don't platform them don't whatever like i was
01:01:22.400
saying earlier on and and you know if you stop having these conversations with people you will
01:01:27.960
radical the radicalize the other side that's why even as much as i want to like torment the left right
01:01:31.840
now which i do like i don't ever want to stop these conversations because i don't think they're
01:01:36.580
product productive and i don't think we're ever going to meet anywhere to like make this country like
01:01:41.440
at least a little more sane yeah and even separate from uh morally or intellectually just strategically
01:01:49.680
one of the things that i was reading was that one of the reasons harris didn't do an interview with
01:01:54.020
joe rogan was she was progressive staffers of hers were afraid of progressive backlash to talking with
01:01:59.720
him and there's a there's this whole um one of my friends calls it the brosphere podcast arena that
01:02:07.480
we just haven't entered at all in part because we have a fear of i think i guess um of engaging with
01:02:14.620
certain people and then people go why are you talking to them you're you're normalizing them
01:02:18.000
which is like their platform is bigger than most people the funny thing is is that like they were
01:02:21.880
lefty people like rogan yeah like rogan was earning we lost rogan yeah you did you can look at you can
01:02:27.540
look at the trump administration and all of the people that everybody was most excited about used to be
01:02:32.460
democrats rfk right elon musk um tulsi gabbard tulsi gabbard donald trump these are all people
01:02:38.520
that in the aughts were democrats right normal democrats like establishment democrats and they've
01:02:44.040
been you know run out of the democrat party the progressives yeah by the progressives that's why
01:02:48.540
i asked earlier you know before i was like do you consider yourself a democrat do you consider
01:02:52.000
yourself a progressive because i think that there is a a distinction in the democrat party and
01:02:56.600
there's there's probably going to be some kind of serious civil war in the democrat party and i think
01:03:01.240
that people that like yourself that will go to other outlets and and and present your views um
01:03:09.680
to other people to listen to and actually debate the ideas i think that you are likely going to win
01:03:15.080
i think that the progressives that are like don't go in and and engage at all i think that they're gonna
01:03:21.260
become fewer and fewer um at least that's my hope uh so you know kudos yeah stuff with the distinction
01:03:27.280
too i just want to make in case people don't know my my ideology is like on a lot of economic
01:03:32.040
policy a lot of policies i'm really progressive the way we used to use that term now it's associated
01:03:36.580
with something in some cases that uh is a little icky like i don't think it's a progressive view to
01:03:43.220
think you shouldn't go engage with other ideologies but maybe some of the people who yeah people we would
01:03:47.440
consider that a left-wing progressive that's whack because my experience too is the i feel like
01:03:54.180
to your point i've made people less extreme by just talking with them right in my personal life
01:03:59.600
now this will be a little bit more debatey which sometimes is harder to make progress but in longer
01:04:04.200
form more passive discussions people are open to hearing unless like you said they feel isolated
01:04:10.520
i feel like like the let like i if i walk into a place and i know it's like left-wing people i
01:04:16.740
actually feel like they hate me like they hate me even my neighbors like my neighbors hang like a gay
01:04:22.480
pride trans flag outside their house right they know i'm super conservative right they don't say
01:04:27.620
hi to me that i say hi how are you nothing right like i feel the hatred coming from them more than
01:04:35.920
like so now i hang a street pride flag up right so like fine i wasn't going to go there right but now
01:04:42.620
that you have treated response right like like i feel like i'm constantly responding to how i've been
01:04:48.480
treated so like it's a it's a very reactive thing it's so interesting because that's how i think most
01:04:52.720
people on the left feel really see i don't even want my husband wearing a maga hat in a restaurant
01:04:57.560
because i don't want someone spitting in my food right i literally have that fear and i know that
01:05:02.060
people were walking around their biden and their kamala hats on but they think everybody else thinks
01:05:05.380
like them and like we're the extreme minority here and they have the moral high ground they think so
01:05:09.180
they're so right you know right they think it's like these random weird they're like we're not the
01:05:14.500
majority like that they feel like they have the ability to act like that like there were people
01:05:19.460
i remember so many of us being afraid to wear like a maga hat around right or a shirt supporting trump
01:05:25.160
but when it was kamala harris i mean they had masks on it said biden harris right it was it was like that
01:05:30.840
was more socially acceptable you didn't feel like walking into a thing if you had a political shirt on
01:05:35.580
on the left that anybody would do anything to your food that you would get kicked out i mean we have felt
01:05:39.920
like that i think yeah i think it depends on where you are a lot of conservatives like to live in really
01:05:43.500
liberal areas um i don't like to live i'm trying to leave but that's where you are but and so then
01:05:48.660
it's that can happen but like when i've gone to really conservative areas i feel uncomfortable
01:05:52.060
if i were wearing something but i do think which the name is kamala by the way oh god but to his
01:05:58.000
point i do think that times the tides are changing like even if you saw after the election aoc posted an
01:06:03.080
instagram story and she said hey like to my voters who voted for me and also trump why i i genuinely want
01:06:09.180
to know why you did that and that did happen which is not the case in the past like before it'd be like
01:06:13.120
i don't know if she would say you're disgusting people but you know why would you do that but
01:06:16.580
it's interesting that she's putting that on her platform then you even see chink or as i like to
01:06:20.740
call him chunky chunky yogurt and anna kasparian now they're kind of warming up to the idea and
01:06:25.200
they're warming up right and their audience is starting to turn on them and it's very interesting
01:06:29.380
and then also joe scarborough on morning joe him and his wife was calling trump hitler for years
01:06:34.280
and then trump wins and they go have dinner but if he's really hitler wouldn't you not feel safe having
01:06:38.100
dinner with him at his house but they pointed to historical references about rhetoric because we
01:06:43.760
should learn from history not to make oh the liberals let me use a lot of words all this whole
01:06:50.760
thing about oh everyone called him hitler it's like guys chill he obviously exhibits fascistic
01:06:56.300
tendencies can we just acknowledge it you like it though all right i don't know what trying to
01:07:00.520
he's more democrat than i'd want him to be he's right yeah he's not he didn't what i think yes
01:07:05.000
there that is something that you hear a lot on the right is is the the right says please let trump
01:07:10.480
be the uh what they want oritarian that the democrats think that he is what did you say
01:07:15.400
before we started i can't speak for everyone people have gone too far like i know people call him or
01:07:18.900
hitler and stuff like i've never engaged in that but i i do point to he literally said on true social
01:07:23.440
that we should terminate the constitution okay we know they look it up look it up please we just went
01:07:29.200
over this with jank like it was just a we did a massive fraud of this type of magnitude allows for the
01:07:33.960
that's not nope they broke it down the articles you guys read it one way this is borderline we'll
01:07:38.840
we'll set it we're not going to do this because but my point is okay okay then how do you just
01:07:42.760
your but so but how do you justify literally here's the quote the government should come down hard on
01:07:49.980
them and the them that he was talking about in the post was msnbc that's fascist stuff i don't want
01:07:54.940
i don't want i don't want the conversation to continue to be brought to donald trump and stuff we
01:08:00.020
were god forbid we talk about the most relevant person of politics there are topics that we are
01:08:03.880
going to try to stay to and when we initially started this this was about gen z this particular
01:08:08.660
bit i'm explaining why gen z okay but wait the only reason why i don't support trump that's not
01:08:13.240
what we're talking about though why do you think gen z has actually moved right yeah jank and just so
01:08:17.600
you know i'm not trying to like avoid that topic jank and tim just went over that like like two days
01:08:22.320
ago i was right there and it was like a 30 minute thing so i just don't want to for our audience i don't
01:08:26.080
want to like break that all down again and go through the arguments when they already hash it out so
01:08:29.700
like i'll send you the clip later and if anybody wants to i don't know if jank was able to do a
01:08:33.640
justice i didn't see the clip but it's ridiculous jank did it justice what happens is there's a
01:08:38.760
different reading those ways of it okay but let's but there's all the examples are him saying the
01:08:43.340
press are criminals and stuff like that it's just that is so what so if this is the if this is the
01:08:47.440
case i'm trying to move on i just have to finish the point you said you want me to move on about
01:08:50.640
the thing that you asked about which was uh you were talking about oh i i always like my whole life
01:08:57.040
i have a bunch of uh trump supporters of my family and everything so i'm always listening to the
01:09:00.340
other side and trying to figure out where they're coming from i am curious as a little bit of a
01:09:06.320
hypocrisy check one of the things that's weird is like trump didn't even get a majority he got a
01:09:10.340
plurality he got under 50 percent um so like the majority voted against trump in that sense and he's
01:09:15.440
still legitimate president all of that but in that the barriers in that it has to be like the
01:09:21.820
win the popular vote and now i didn't even get to the key part of the point i just want to make
01:09:24.880
that distinction he won the popular vote he wanted an electoral landslide he won okay for sure but i'm
01:09:30.600
saying i would love to go all right someone wins i'm going to think about not changing my principles
01:09:36.140
if i believe them to be correct because someone won i can think someone incorrectly won which i do in
01:09:40.720
this case but i'm as we do constantly trying to figure out what the other side is thinking okay
01:09:45.280
but y'all didn't apply that when biden won by way more the popular vote right like why didn't y'all go
01:09:52.200
what i'll tell you why because i resonate with with what he'll tell you why because i was in
01:09:55.600
philadelphia right and i actually am an elected committee person in philadelphia right and my
01:10:00.860
mom's a judge of elections so i was actually supposed to be doing those elections and they
01:10:05.720
were literally putting cardboard up on the wall so people could not watch them count the vote right
01:10:11.400
which is the first in history people can always watch no but i'm just saying to you you bring up
01:10:16.380
things and then it's like i need to explain why you're saying that and why it's wrong but then but we
01:10:20.620
had pipes burst we had the little jump and stuff you and and we've had we had shifts to the
01:10:25.500
electoral process that were different that were done judicially but it was shifts that were done
01:10:29.820
that were not whatever we've had we had misinformation running through favoring the democrats always in
01:10:36.600
that like with the with the russia stuff with the uh underbiden underbot all that right so there
01:10:41.920
were lots of things where republicans and you can say you can say they were valid or not they felt
01:10:48.080
they in their hearts right from all this from all this stuff that we see going on that it wasn't
01:10:53.960
like people now say like it wasn't a fair election because the media right and i think that's kind of
01:10:59.320
a cop-out i have i have seen as somebody who has been involved in the electoral process for a long time
01:11:04.580
i have always seen multiple instances of voter fraud happening right and i i have seen it i had some
01:11:11.440
guy that came in he said like with this thing he got dropped off in philly at like right across from
01:11:16.840
head house square and he said he lived on two i forget it was like 13 delancey street well my mom
01:11:21.300
lives at 205 that freaking house didn't exist right and he's got this signed little piece of paper and
01:11:26.340
he's saying he wants to vote he's you're not this person there is no house there you can't say you've
01:11:31.080
lived there when that house number doesn't even exist right and they let him vote right and we were
01:11:35.800
mad about it and and then you have instances of like i don't think that you know this but in
01:11:40.120
delaware county outside of philadelphia they actually have on tape saying that there was an
01:11:44.540
investigation the investigation is still ongoing they haven't settled it where these people were
01:11:48.720
like um we're not going to show them what they did there's all this undercover footage of them
01:11:52.180
actually the guy is admitting to lying and manipulating the votes in delaware county like
01:11:57.380
it's still an ongoing like court case today that they're dealing with it's not been shut out yet
01:12:01.940
so especially in areas like that where i live where there's multiple instances of these things just
01:12:06.960
this one area in these couple areas and the problem too is when they it takes years to sort these
01:12:11.000
things out so it doesn't change anything it takes seven votes seven votes at every precinct okay like
01:12:16.920
in like in philadelphia to change the outcome of an election seven votes in each precinct right but
01:12:23.100
when we total these numbers up people are like oh it's hundreds of thousands of votes and this and
01:12:27.020
that like it's when you really break the numbers down it's a small number of votes in each precinct
01:12:32.300
that that flips that thing so yeah there were ways like you know there wasn't standing there was
01:12:37.880
reasons that these weren't taken up in court so there there people really did feel like the
01:12:44.000
election was stolen and there was nothing we could do about it was like out of our hands why did i
01:12:47.420
even start rambling on about this in the first place what were you talking about right before that
01:12:50.460
oh why y'all won't do introspection but you think we should no i definitely always think i definitely i
01:12:55.960
am very introspective i criticize trump all the time okay would you let me let me explain that's not
01:12:59.860

establishment conservatives would you consider the that the election of donald trump might have been
01:14:43.440
an introspection maybe the right said hey it's not working for us to vote for these people like
01:14:48.820
mitt romney or like john oh i mean yeah trump was more extreme but i that could that's not what
01:14:56.600
i'm saying i'm not saying i'll never do intersection introspection i'm saying that i keep hearing this
01:15:00.600
luke you you must be wrong you must admit that we must be right about things because trump won the
01:15:06.440
popular vote i wouldn't say that there's like a feeling i was responding to one of you making some
01:15:12.500
point about that um my point is that if biden won way by way more which he did um not electorally but
01:15:18.280
you know popular vote it wasn't like y'all went hmm what should we resonate with liberals about now
01:15:23.940
that they've so overwhelmingly it didn't feel legitimate it felt right but i can address that
01:15:28.220
because you went i even sat back to really give you the space to do that um that's because trump
01:15:34.540
was a cry baby he soaked a lot of feelings i'm happy that you would use that word because it was it
01:15:41.640
was feelings and then even his own investigators tried to find the outcome determined to voter fraud
01:15:46.280
and to your point about these different anecdotes in every election always in a country this size
01:15:52.120
you're going to have specific cases of people engaging in fraud right i could do the same thing
01:15:57.020
i could go find and i've seen the stories of somebody in pennsylvania yeah of mega folks engaging in voter
01:16:04.280
fraud i could pretend like that's representative of a bigger problem than it is i could not cite the
01:16:08.540
actual studies that prove it's not i could not cite the actual court cases or the investigations done by
01:16:12.520
i can cite those things too i'm saying that there was i'm gonna i'm gonna finish i'm gonna finish
01:16:16.740
this and so the reason those cases were hyper fixated on even though they weren't representative
01:16:23.100
of a big problem even trump's own administration officials were like we're we looked into it for
01:16:26.820
them we're trying to find the fraud it's just not there oh in any outcome determinative way and
01:16:31.640
so then not that it's not there it's hard they can't prove it
01:16:34.780
yeah let him finish his thing okay okay the reason why people also don't feel like it was
01:16:40.920
right that trump won but we just don't internalize that by claiming it was all rigged about 2016
01:16:47.340
russia collusion okay so let me just explain so let me just see let me just show you something just
01:16:50.720
one thing all right so i've explained that to you when there's mail-in ballots right we had this mass
01:16:54.920
new mail-in ballot campaign right you you have you ever done a mail-in ballot no matter what you say
01:17:00.020
i can tell you my response okay so if you can already tell your response it doesn't it doesn't
01:17:04.600
matter what my point is because i've had these conversations hundreds of times already what am
01:17:07.980
i going to say that it's the sort i'm talking about the sorting process right have you ever done a
01:17:10.980
mail-in ballot have i done no i haven't okay so here's here's how it works because i had i used
01:17:14.740
to live in dc but i was still voting in pennsylvania because of the well then trump's election wasn't
01:17:19.140
legitimate either because there's mail-in votes like there wasn't the same amount clearly there's
01:17:24.060
apparently seven million votes missing now so not missing it's that y'all's rhetoric worked on
01:17:28.980
convincing people the biden administration was worse than it was when i talk about it was really
01:17:32.160
successful when you do a mail-in ballot right there's an inside ballot right that's separate
01:17:38.320
and there's an outside ballot right that has your name and you sign it right because it's supposed to
01:17:43.160
be a secret ballot so when you mail it in right and they go to count the votes they separate them
01:17:49.360
they put the counted ones in here and they put the mail in with the signature here so you can identify
01:17:53.840
who's who okay once you do that process it doesn't matter how you recount them right they're forever
01:18:01.200
separate so you don't know right there's no way to because because even now you can't go look up i
01:18:07.800
can't even go look up if my vote was registered as a right-wing vote or a left-wing vote so now you have
01:18:13.520
these separate ballots right once you separate them even if people just take ballots and stick them in
01:18:18.900
the separate pile or the way that they come in or whatever there's no way even if you do a recount
01:18:24.240
that that's just the counting process but there's no way once the mail-in ballots are separated like
01:18:29.260
that to determine if they were legitimate ballots it's not possible once the separation process happens
01:18:35.400
and there's no identical identifiable information on that ballot itself so there it's so when you have
01:18:42.340
this mass ballot campaign right and we did extra mail-in ballots if you look at the difference right
01:18:46.360
there's a swarm of them we do have that odd very statistical odd jump you have everybody seen the
01:18:51.600
graph right but there's no way to go back and check that i always said i said from the beginning
01:18:55.960
people were like hold out hope they're doing it i said there's no way to prove it i said everybody
01:19:01.380
just accept this is what i said i did an instagram post on it just accept that biden is the president
01:19:06.340
and if you want to show do a show for us go to his inauguration with your maga hat on like that's
01:19:11.320
literally what i said people said there clearly are ways to verify which is why we catch people
01:19:15.120
fraud through mail-in votes but uh aside from that i just point yeah i don't know if you believe that
01:19:22.040
we've just gone through it so many times and it's more than just recounts because i know what you're
01:19:26.400
saying about that but the way that we prosecute people which we're always prosecuting some people
01:19:31.620
for voter fraud because there's some but they're usually things like they watch them drop off multiple
01:19:35.600
ballots at a location isn't well i want to address one of the things you said though uh or they they get
01:19:41.280
ballots and it's like registered to some random person's account and she has six what oh i see
01:19:47.200
what you're saying um yeah so my point is that we have really secure elections in the country
01:19:51.900
and i've heard these arguments before with the particular how the mail-in vote are counted haven't
01:19:57.860
argued that particular one um too many times but every single time we try to go in and verify
01:20:05.080
our elections or verify the opposite even when it's right-wing groups that gets access to whatever
01:20:09.720
they want whatever information about some uh voting machines were breached by maga allies of trump's
01:20:16.160
they got access to all that the evidence is not there because it didn't happen because it would
01:20:20.280
be absurd to try to steal an election the way y'all think they tried to steal an election i'm gonna send
01:20:24.080
you the delco stuff you gotta watch this for me but uh it's vile that you i always use that word
01:20:31.380
same thing at the same time great record is a great record that you would just you would cite all these
01:20:37.540
things or take issue with the entire process that we vote uh through now back in 2020 and then you
01:20:44.300
learn the election is perfectly legitimate because trump wins and now y'all don't care so i will say
01:20:48.820
that i do i feel better i feel like you know there are points where i just y'all should imagine how
01:20:54.940
upsetting it is to be on our side where we had to listen to y'all scream about fraud for four years
01:20:58.100
and then you learn that that's not the case because trump wins and it's just sort of never mind that was
01:21:02.440
after four years of you guys um saying russia collusion but i want to point out that in 2020
01:21:06.500
we had the covid covid happened and it was used and like really abused to change all these different
01:21:11.860
voting systems now all of a sudden all these new states had mail-in ballots and as we just learned
01:21:16.080
from lisa there can be very easily things can be i still think they're messing with russia in arizona
01:21:21.540
lisa hold on billy they're still doing it so now it is worth noting that the method of collecting
01:21:28.720
ballots and everything in 2020 was novel we had never had an election under a pandemic the way
01:21:35.820
that we did in 2020 so yeah the amount that was mail-in voting and yeah and and also the process
01:21:41.340
it was like there was a lot of changes and stuff it was that year because it happened exactly yeah
01:21:45.060
there was there was this the changes in pennsylvania that that caused texas to try and sue pennsylvania
01:21:50.600
about their stuff um so it was and all and the only point that i'm making is that it was a novel
01:21:55.240
election that there had never been an election that was that was like that one in history yeah
01:22:00.420
and and yeah people feel the same about 2024 why on earth would you say that they feel the same
01:22:05.380
about 2024 oh just articulate articulate why it's novel what was different about 2024
01:22:11.360
than everything none of the rules change oh what is it yeah that's not true but what
01:22:16.720
republican state legislatures that changed their voting but it's fine it's legitimate i don't have
01:22:20.920
i'm not gonna i don't have an issue with why do you mention the policy no no i'm saying that you
01:22:25.660
feeling that way and that and it being an unprecedented election and pandemic doesn't
01:22:30.600
justify trying to block the peaceful transfer power no that that's not what i was that's not the
01:22:34.500
argument that i was making so you're you're bringing it up to deflect the only thing i was
01:22:38.280
saying is that it was a novel i hear you it's novel i hear you you know what i hear you okay um
01:22:44.060
that doesn't it's just you're saying it like it justifies what she was going through so that's why
01:22:47.780
i didn't okay i did not say that justify anything novel as hell the only point that i was making is
01:22:52.480
that it was a unique it was a different situation than any other election that we've gone through
01:22:56.360
but i do want to talk about the the shift to the right because you'll you've made remarks about
01:23:02.200
donald trump and i you it's clear you don't like donald trump i get it um and you've remarked that
01:23:08.480
you know he didn't win the popular vote and he didn't win or he didn't you know he didn't win
01:23:13.180
over 50 so it's not actually that the majority of america wants it and so i can take that on its
01:23:19.080
face but the reaction the results nationwide in california i think 11 counties flipped basically
01:23:27.300
the entire country moved right so how do you square that if if if if the country
01:23:32.460
generally moved to the right what do you what's your take on that how do you feel about that and
01:23:40.020
what do you think that says about the country's reaction to the democrat policies that we've been
01:23:44.700
living under for the past four years great and the only reason i brought up just make sure i'll
01:23:50.280
flip in your head too about what it meant about trump when trump lost as well but let me just answer
01:23:53.820
that because thank you trump won and again that's why that's why i pointed that's why i pointed the
01:23:58.700
right shift because it's not i'm not talking about yeah i'm talking about the whole country shifted to
01:24:03.260
the right and that's been talk about that don't bring up trump it's not about donald trump
01:24:06.540
i know you don't like we all know we know you don't like donald trump we know we get it yeah i'm
01:24:11.360
gonna explain all what it means about democrats i'll note it actually it's it's all about it's almost
01:24:16.760
all about what the democrats were perceived as as opposed to what the alternative was okay so it's
01:24:23.040
really going to focus on democrats which will be perfect for you uh it was mostly about from what
01:24:28.100
i can tell a lack of turnout among people who would have voted for democrats so if you look in like
01:24:32.340
really democratic areas they didn't turn out to offset the conservative areas as they had
01:24:37.420
in the biden election the reason for that is whenever trump was president and people were upset
01:24:43.260
about the pandemic the response the backlash to that was we're going to put in the other guy
01:24:48.280
and then as we've seen nationwide across this is the biggest variables there's a bunch of smaller
01:24:53.360
variables as well but the biggest variable is that across western countries we've seen this backlash
01:24:58.380
to incumbents for the pandemic related conditions namely prices going up now the united states i have
01:25:04.940
to throw this in i'm sorry um has handled inflation much more effectively than our wealthy country
01:25:09.540
counterparts we brought down inflation much faster than again our counterparts across the world i think
01:25:15.240
biden harris policies have been generally really solid on managing the economy we came out of the
01:25:19.940
pandemic much more effectively than any other country on the globe and the unfortunate thing was though
01:25:25.340
all those pandemic conditions and recovery efforts that any president would have engaged in trump did
01:25:28.760
too uh ended up setting up and supply chain problems and the war in you know ukraine it all
01:25:34.240
contributed to worldwide inflation and that ended up being blamed on incumbents right wing and left
01:25:40.800
wing across the world you mentioned ukraine if you so wait but let's let's round that out so i think
01:25:46.720
this is less about people loving what trump's offering and more about people rejecting an incumbent
01:25:52.640
because they've been misled about what the cause of prices going up was so you mentioned ukraine um
01:25:59.700
as a as a cause of inflation and that's something that there's a fairly clear distinction between the
01:26:07.540
right and the left about is ukraine overall but i i mentioned that let's go there i love that
01:26:12.620
conversation but let's just really solidify let's ignore ukraine because that's not the most
01:26:16.540
important part it was recovery efforts supply chain problems and the economic aftermath of the pandemic
01:26:21.860
that trump would have dealt with too if he'd gotten a second term that's the main causes of
01:26:25.460
inflation he loves and corporate price gouging uh because people were expecting inflation so they
01:26:29.920
did it that's ridiculous um so now what did you say i just said he loves gay crane just a little
01:26:34.360
it's ridiculous they did it or ridiculous that i said they did it yeah it's ridiculous that you say
01:26:38.520
that it was corporate price gouging yeah so um i mean that's just what happened they they increased
01:26:43.300
prices more than inflation necessitated i i i don't i don't think that that's the case but anyways um
01:26:49.120
the point being like i wanted to bring up ukraine there's there's a distinct you know left and right
01:26:54.080
divide when it comes to ukraine right wait and so i'm just i feel like your audience is gonna
01:26:58.500
sort of it'll be disservice to them you can y'all explain if biden was so bad for inflation why we
01:27:05.320
brought it down so much faster than all of our i didn't say that biden was so bad okay good i think
01:27:09.240
you agree the public misdiagnosed why inflation happened no no i don't don't don't put words in my
01:27:14.000
mouth um the government is bad about inflation the government prints america did really good
01:27:18.360
handling the federal government prints dollars and the both the biden administration and the trump
01:27:24.400
administration spent plenty of money those things are are yeah my point is they nailed the recovery
01:27:31.080
they did amazing biden harris did amazing getting us out of the pandemic no they didn't crisis so
01:27:35.920
they did amazing no they did they did amazing getting us out of afghanistan no they didn't no
01:27:39.480
they didn't do they didn't do amazing and y'all have misled people about why grocery prices are
01:27:44.200
high that's my point that's that's and if grocery prices weren't high we would have not voted for
01:27:48.240
trump that's why it's happening you asked all ridiculous you asked why i didn't ask you i didn't
01:27:52.460
ask you got a little boarding i need to spice it up this is this is i didn't ask anything like this
01:27:57.720
you asked why trump won i'm telling you it's because of mostly people were pissed about prices and i'm
01:28:02.280
saying they were wrong about the cause of it they were right that it was happening and they should have
01:28:05.480
voted for it so listen you you i let ask for your opinion and you gave it i think that actually
01:28:12.080
instead of moving on to ukraine isabel like you've been fairly quiet what is what is your sense as to
01:28:17.420
why the the there has been a shift to the right um i think i think that there's left-wing infighting
01:28:25.460
where this there's the really progressives that kind of tell them that they can't speak to these
01:28:29.880

something that you do you speak to people like us right that's okay but that's coupled with i think wokeness is a big driver
01:30:04.520
you even see people like even just celebrities that are generally leftist like even i just saw perez hilton
01:30:09.820
who's obviously like very gay very leftist liberal kind of guy he's sick of the wokeness bill maher talks
01:30:15.320
about the wokeness people on the left it's getting more popular i think people see things for their
01:30:19.680
eyes or for instance with kids like people that have kids in schools they don't want their daughter to
01:30:24.140
have to go into a locker room or a bathroom with a man dressing as a woman right these things that
01:30:29.060
people try to gaslight us and say oh you're just fear-mongering oh you're transphobic it's like no i just
01:30:33.560
want to go to a bathroom without a guy in there so i think wokeness y'all have been really made that
01:30:37.840
distinction earlier between progressives and democrats i i feel like democrats would tend to
01:30:44.500
agree with you at least at least on this particular issue democrats would generally tend to agree with
01:30:49.040
you i think there's some kind of numbers like 75 percent of america thinks that that the right
01:30:55.280
the bathrooms should be at least for women like there shouldn't be trans women in women's bathrooms
01:31:01.080
right men can men can deal with trans men in in men's bathrooms it's not an issue in sports too
01:31:06.720
women's sports obviously people are seeing their daughters have to compete with men but these are
01:31:10.320
progressives progressive issues as opposed to what i think would be democrat basic let's be fair
01:31:15.340
nobody is like if a blair white or thank you brianna woo is like walking into a bathroom right i would
01:31:22.180
never call the police or anything like that and it was everything i worked in a bar and we would have
01:31:26.360
who made it a thing wait hold on it was never a thing there's women coming into bathrooms it is
01:31:33.040
the ones that look like that jeffrey creepy marsh dude okay the ones that aren't fully committed to
01:31:38.300
their transition right the jeffrey marsh the thing that happened in the loudon county right it's it is
01:31:43.860
it is those instances right and the fact that it was like it's becoming like a social contagion
01:31:49.340
right to where they're putting it in schools and they're putting books in schools um it's it's also
01:31:53.920
what's responsible for this rise in christianity you have like one in five kids now that are are
01:31:58.740
saying that they believe in god and they're turning to christian things you have like gwen stefani
01:32:02.480
coming out and doing a thing with halo right recently i think that i think that part of that is because
01:32:08.020
of the fact that it's a it's a rejection of what people feel like is obvious reality right so the idea
01:32:15.400
that a man can become a woman a woman can become a man i as personally as they can't define the word
01:32:20.280
woman true right i personally my take is look society can deal with trans people like fairly
01:32:26.420
easily it's i never cared it's it's not an actual problem and the demand by the far left again the
01:32:32.500
progressives not people that are are more of a democrat kind of persuasion i think that they demand
01:32:39.460
that you think of them as women the progressives the really extreme ideologically possessed people
01:32:45.720
will okay and this is a minority this is a minority hold on it's a it's a it's a it's a
01:32:50.420
well there's three of us i understand you're in a in a rough spot you are three but the point that
01:32:56.340
i'm making is when you're dealing with people that are on the far far left now again not the average
01:33:02.500
democrat saying things like no there's no difference between a biological woman and a
01:33:08.080
trans woman they're both biologically women i don't know who's it yeah the the missouri uh congress
01:33:14.820
person said that i think most people understand biological sex versus your gender identity but
01:33:18.680
that that i agree with you most people that's why i specified the people that are extremely
01:33:23.500
progressive and why is the tagline trans women are women right because they want because they're the
01:33:27.900
the because the far left is who is actually well that one or trans women like that's fine you're
01:33:33.840
trans women you're not a woman right if they're existing in society in every meaningful way other
01:33:38.740
than if you knew way too intimately their biological details it doesn't matter they're all going to
01:33:42.820
treat them like women stop telling me why do i have to go in when i'm getting a lactation consultant
01:33:47.720
to like breastfeed my kid and they call it chest feeding i'm clearly a biological woman i'm i'm
01:33:52.360
yeah i'm gonna go through some of this so one of the things that happens i think the best friend
01:33:58.320
of maga is like the super uber i don't know what to call them like the extreme end of the left okay
01:34:03.820
because they provide these nice semi-attached to reality but kind of straw men people that y'all can
01:34:11.160
engage with and what i mean is it's not that these things aren't a thing like i talked about
01:34:15.240
the bathroom thing and think nancy mace is being psychotic with her obsession over one
01:34:18.780
trans member of congress where she goes to the restroom she wasn't going to go to that restroom
01:34:21.860
anyways but um i i know these things exist and i'm happy to talk about them as sort of cultural issues
01:34:27.560
and social media discussions but i don't think they exist in the way they impact people's lives
01:34:32.820
like the policy issues i'm focused on most of the time uh and the policy issues that most prominent
01:34:38.680
democrats are focused on like politicians wait but let me what republicans often do is like
01:34:43.260
if if the republican line trump wants to come in and give big tax because his last one's
01:34:49.040
disproportionately benefited wealthy folks and then he wants to do these tariffs that will spike prices
01:34:55.100
and if he actually was really clear and transparent about what he wants to do then i don't think people
01:35:00.400
would vote for republicans as much because their economic agenda is trash they have a worse economic
01:35:05.000
record over the last century but instead it has to be don't look at that look at all of these other
01:35:10.180
niche cultural issues like a trans person you're probably never going to notice yourself interacting
01:35:14.880
with it's my turn and and and then uh so that's that's a big part of this i wish y'all would engage
01:35:21.040
with what kamala harris was actually running on you can go look at all of her speeches it wasn't about
01:35:25.760
trans bathrooms she literally said multiple times that she would provide money for trans prisoners
01:35:32.140
i'm talking right okay so that that is something that it is again you're doing it again you found
01:35:36.580
a clip that wasn't from her presidential campaign that was it might have been from like her one way
01:35:40.920
it doesn't matter it doesn't matter she said it that was a trump administration era policy that he
01:35:46.120
was abiding by as well but my point is just listen for a second it's my turn that's what y'all do
01:35:51.400
instead of engaging with her actual policy proposals which were mostly economic ones to bring down
01:35:56.180
prices enhance child tax credit small business related tax breaks that's what she was running on
01:36:01.460
running on a pro-freedom platform and that's what i resonated with and what y'all will do is only
01:36:06.340
engage with like the online wokesters instead of engaging with the fact that democrats really do
01:36:11.100
have a better economic agenda than republicans which i'll argue until i'm blue okay so it's my
01:36:16.020
turn right does that make sense at all to you does the argument like i strongly believe that you'll
01:36:20.580
argue every democrat point okay wait i won't i will not so i just want to let you know i'll criticize
01:36:24.960
i already have you say we don't push back i actually made a post that the bathroom thing with
01:36:29.280
nancy mace was absolutely irrelevant because every member has their own bathroom everybody and i wrote
01:36:33.660
it i wrote a thing a post saying yeah this bathroom stuff with nancy mace is like retarded
01:36:38.220
it's a political statement because yeah because every member has their own private bathroom in their
01:36:43.640
own office there's no and they don't i've been on the hill for many years they fought they did
01:36:48.200
finally put a women's bathroom off like the floor of congress right so i push back on that that's one
01:36:53.880
thing second thing is is like the tariffs they keep saying this tariffs but like brazil has normally the like
01:36:59.220
the highest tariffs in all of all of the countries and they have the second richest uh per capita uh
01:37:07.200
gdp facts right so like you can argue the tariffs all you want because you know all these whatever go
01:37:13.460
look it up i don't think you're hearing my argument though i'm just saying you brought up tariffs tariffs
01:37:17.180
i just want to like throw that out there okay so like we can get that let's talk about tariff as a
01:37:21.180
whole thing because there's a whole thing there well tariffs is like so tariffs is a bargaining chip
01:37:25.020
you guys are looking at it like it's you know policy or whatever they they we are we are tariff
01:37:30.960
to death like you do not see if you go to england if you go to germany you don't see their taxi cabs
01:37:38.760
or mercedes right you are aware that there are tariffs that exist currently right we are we are
01:37:43.620
burdened okay we're trying to level the playing field and bring manufacturing jobs back here all i'm
01:37:48.740
saying this is just if trump follows through on the 25 25 and then 10 extra on china the on our
01:37:56.700
three biggest trading partners i'm not how do you all get to a negotiating table hold up let me say
01:38:01.280
if people if people voted for him because they wanted prices to go down you can make the argument
01:38:05.880
that it's a good trade-off to have prices go way up but it's bring more manufacturing jobs whatever
01:38:09.620
and sometimes that's a trade-off that we do he should do it strategically across the board tariffs on
01:38:13.180
all imports it's a crazy proposal but i'm just saying it's your people you're gonna you're gonna have
01:38:18.500
people who are not a trump because all they care about is the grocery prices let me explain what
01:38:22.980
he's doing it's a negotiation he has to set how he is seen to the outside world the reason that trump
01:38:29.940
didn't get any no and had no new wars and all that stuff is because he's a lunatic because they were
01:38:34.560
so afraid that he would push the button they didn't know what he would do he was unpredictable
01:38:38.180
they were afraid they were more willing to negotiate with him it's kind of like this if you're doing a
01:38:42.780
court case settlement right they have like a t-sheet right or if you're buying a house right the seller
01:38:48.040
the seller lists the price higher than what they actually really want to get it for and then the
01:38:53.800
the set the buyer comes in and they go low so now he has to have this policy this objective that seems
01:39:01.640
like it's crazy and it's really going to hurt them and it's really going to impact like and that's why
01:39:07.800
mexico is already starting to negotiate and do stuff with us because they don't want those taxes and they
01:39:14.040
think he's insane enough to put them in it is a complete tool it's a rhetoric tool it is a i am
01:39:19.900
presenting power and insanity on the world stage and they're afraid of him and and that's why i can
01:39:24.680
be your argument i'm telling you the people who voted for him on prices are going to be mad if he
01:39:31.360
follows through on this in spikes prices that's all i'm saying well listen there are and don't dispute
01:39:36.660
that that's what 25 percent on all imports i think that it's important to point out the reason that
01:39:41.400
prices are are such an issue is because the inflation has already come and kind of gotten
01:39:47.260
under control but we had such outrageous inflation and inflation is a leader and uh wages are a lagger
01:39:54.580
so wages have yet to rise to meet the inflation that's what that's what happens what we've actually
01:40:00.440
we've surpassed it now so just so you know like like people's purchasing power now is where it was
01:40:05.160
pre-pandemic it's gone back up so i mean well i'm so sure that's the case still has an inflation
01:40:09.940
rate because of the incredible biden era wage growth uh it real wage growth i don't i don't
01:40:16.300
know that that's actually true but the point being it people are responding to what they had felt for
01:40:21.700
the past four years not just what has happened in the past six months or all right so let me just say
01:40:26.220
something we'll go back to brazil for a second so brazil's inflation rate is higher than their set
01:40:30.820
goal of three percent but it's at 4.77 right they have no income tax and they have the most tariffs out
01:40:36.820
of any country and they have the highest gdp right they're so their prices aren't going up they can
01:40:42.500
set these trade agreements right they can have um their tariffs a certain way they are tariffs are
01:40:48.540
negotiating tools to get what you want and i think that people are only looking at it from a
01:40:55.620
non-strategic uh a non-strategic method of engaging with economic policies with other countries and we
01:41:02.220
have notoriously been because we're the biggest or the richest or the whatever country we have been
01:41:06.700
like the the everybody's um like you know like we're the charity for everyone everyone come here
01:41:12.540
i want to get israel i want to get you a million dollar billion dollars to africa for disaster relief
01:41:16.960
i want to get you in on this what what's your take on the economic policies that that that look at
01:41:22.580
her face already i'm gonna be honest i don't i don't care yeah i don't really care about this stuff i
01:41:26.840
did have a point about the trans stuff i wanted to bring up quickly i will admit they know more about
01:41:30.600
this than me it's just not what i'm into i should read up on it though but just back on the trans
01:41:35.360
stuff because i couldn't get in there i want something that the right is so something that
01:41:39.260
i think a lot of the people that went to the right and the right is definitely sick of is the lgbtq
01:41:44.220
whatever being shoved down our throats and lisa showed me this on the car ride here if you look up
01:41:48.880
not only do we have a gay pride month not only but it's gay pride a year all the time because i it's
01:41:53.160
i have this as a link i did tell in the doc there's so many gay holidays literally multiple every
01:41:58.260
single month there's even more singular gay holidays in gay pride month so what is like
01:42:02.320
why do they have to shove it down our throats it's annoying i'm not i know that you're not doing it
01:42:05.860
but i think that's a big shift to the right every it's month sometimes multiple times a month it is
01:42:10.660
like it's like nothing it like for people that say they're so oppressed there's nothing more
01:42:14.640
celebrated right now in our culture than gay so and here's the problem that i have with that wait
01:42:18.900
yeah i agree maybe this is excessive here's what's excessive no but but i understand the urge to
01:42:25.060
i'm a mom celebrate oneself when for for centuries you've been you know dehumanized but you're not
01:42:30.920
anymore here's the thing i go into a target with my daughter he's been alive for centuries my man
01:42:34.940
it's it's i go in with my five-year-old and my nine-year-old right they can read right and and
01:42:40.340
there's rainbow flags everywhere and it's like i forget what it said in this one target but it was
01:42:44.300
like it was like like be gay right and like be something else it's like a toddler's t-shirt and it's
01:42:50.800
like no it was like there's no way it says be gay i'll find stuff it was really crazy i tweeted
01:42:56.180
be gay it really was it was like gay do crime is a is it was like something it was something that
01:43:01.060
says a lot i can't remember the exact phrase but i did tweet about it so it was like this was a while
01:43:05.420
ago it's like two years ago it was so egregious right and my kids are like what does that mean
01:43:10.520
right and so my gay my my my next neighbor who flies the gay pride flag we live literally across from
01:43:16.680
a schoolyard where there is like kids elementary school age playing out in the thing all the time
01:43:23.180
right and so they're asking these questions right like i don't want my kids sexualized i don't want
01:43:27.820
them talking about sex i don't want them knowing about sex my kids their third grade class didn't
01:43:31.480
even know what curse words were that's the kind of environment that i keep them in right
01:43:34.300
i don't want to have to like i want to be able to choose when i want to have the conversations about
01:43:42.520
sex and sexuality with my kids right like if i want to say two people can love each other if i
01:43:47.760
want to say two men can love each other that should be fine if they love each other if i want to say
01:43:50.800
that i want to choose when i'm allowed to say that without having it plastered everywhere i mean all the
01:43:57.020
time plastered everywhere as if it's invoking conversations that's the problem so so let's let's
01:44:02.940
get luke let's get your take on the on the do you believe that it is excessive the way that the
01:44:08.560
the government is focusing on things like the lgbtq government oh uh because i mean we're making
01:44:14.880
all of these days i believe these are like all sanctioned by the the i mean they're not you know
01:44:20.200
they're not federal holidays but they are harvey milk day federal yeah like they're yeah i mean
01:44:24.880
there is all the time no i think y'all found like some lgbtq website i don't think all of these are
01:44:29.400
like no if you go to national holidays because i used to have to check them for congressional stuff like
01:44:33.020
we have to say like happy whatever day again it's like you think it's shut down our throats or not
01:44:37.060
i'm like let's address food insecurity in the country let's address poverty and it's like oh
01:44:41.940
there's too many gay holidays well i mean there are different so you're saying you don't want to
01:44:46.260
talk about this topic because i mean we can move on to something else if you'd like no i'll talk about
01:44:49.720
i'm trying to demonstrate the point that i'm saying which is that the the republican politicians
01:44:53.840
that have bad like economic uh prescriptions they benefit from us fixating over these cultural
01:45:01.400
things that they force us all right time out i'm addressing it but but i don't know i don't know
01:45:08.980
if there's too many up there uh i think i'm sure we could debate about that but i do think it's
01:45:14.700
totally understandable that there's been you were talking so much about backlash backlash how y'all
01:45:17.960
have reacted if you know that like a lot of people growing up too i was trying to explain this
01:45:24.260
is bella with her usage of certain terms um harmful terms slurs she you wouldn't empathize
01:45:31.860
with someone who like their whole life felt demonized dehumanized so then moments like a pride
01:45:36.820
month or something it's just their chance to be like well i'm proud of who i am and if y'all don't
01:45:40.600
think it's moral or something to be gay that's your journey hold on i want to put a pin in that but i but
01:45:46.140
my ideology says that even with different moral frameworks we can generally coexist as long as
01:45:52.760
we don't uh dehumanize which y'all for not y'all but like the right wing for a very long time was
01:45:57.820
doing that so you mentioned you mentioned you know people you said people all their lives there's no one
01:46:02.760
in gen z that remembers a time where it's just not true i promise there's no one in gen z you don't
01:46:11.480
you don't even let me finish but there's no one in gen z that really remembers a time where gay marriage
01:46:16.740
wasn't the law of the land right yeah because they're too young how old how old is gen z
01:46:22.660
like what's the oldest gen z here um 26 27 26 27 so the when was 2013 was it obergefell
01:46:32.440
i'm not sure i thought it was like 2012 so so it's been a decade so i mean maybe there's a handful
01:46:37.700
of of people that were you know that are gen z that remember a time before being by
01:46:44.380
it was 2015 i just looked it up obergefell be hot 10 years ago 10 years ago was when when
01:46:50.380
obergefell was was passed or the supreme court made that decision so to say that gen z is in a
01:46:57.600
situation where they remember a time where they were persecuted for being gay i think that that's
01:47:01.740
not right maybe millennials definitely gen xers could say that but i don't think that gen z could
01:47:06.620
say that here's attention they want all this like oppression points and by the way even before it was
01:47:11.160
nationally legalized it was also becoming legal in certain states with the supreme court yeah but before
01:47:16.440
that though but there's one even more thing that's like even more whatever you said something and i'm

gifts you think that people can we can have a framework where we identify like we each have our
01:48:54.380
moral beliefs and then it's um and then but it's able to coexist right and i think that that that's
01:49:01.000
true right i do think that that should be allowed however we have like nfl sports teams making their
01:49:09.420
people wear rainbow pride flags but they're not making them wear crosses right they're not having
01:49:14.260
a catholic night where everybody's got to wear a cross on their arm okay black national hold on i'm not
01:49:18.240
done and we're not having big like catholic parades where there's naked people in the street right
01:49:24.140
we're not having catholic ideology or whatever taught to kids in school we're not saying what
01:49:31.040
you will you're pointing out these are these are mostly what you're talking about are social things
01:49:34.720
but they are sanctioned by the government so even though the government isn't you know making the nfl do
01:49:39.900
these things and the government's not saying they're teaching about non-binary stuff in school but
01:49:43.660
they're not teaching about catholicism in school that's right that's that's the point they're not that's
01:49:47.200
the point that i'm making is is they are mostly social things true y'all wait wait wait wait wait
01:49:52.860
gaslighting i'm talking about wait what you're talking about is you'll have examples like in
01:49:58.380
the curriculum it's not hey in second grade we're telling you what it means to be trans at least i
01:50:03.480
haven't seen that in curricula but what is true is that sometimes teachers maybe sometimes in ways
01:50:09.140
that are inappropriate induce their own ideology into teaching as has been happening forever i have
01:50:15.020
wait my teacher did talk about their christian views a lot in a public school in an environment where
01:50:21.640
normally that's not supposed to be a thing i did have them talk about how like weird stuff about
01:50:26.440
the civil war that was kind of like kind of weird and right wing and that is a thing and you could
01:50:31.720
take issue with it on the local level with your teachers and all that but again the blowing some
01:50:36.620
i'm not trying to gaslight but i'm just saying the pride message while there's instances like i agree
01:50:41.220
if you're in a place where it's just like public and you're naked stop uh but largely the gays
01:50:46.420
with the pride message the best of the pride message and what is what has helped us make so
01:50:52.080
much progress with the next generation and with current and like as the generation have gone on
01:50:57.440
we've made progress on this is saying what i'm saying which is that we can be proud of who we are
01:51:03.120
as individuals and some people can find that behavior 10 years ago we were there but the the pride
01:51:09.800
flag isn't saying like you have to be gay or you have to be trans it's saying no but it's forcing us
01:51:14.320
we weren't there 10 years ago i can tell you that for sure we weren't i'm telling you when i was
01:51:19.340
growing up i don't think y'all understand you're so you're complaining so much because people treat
01:51:23.460
you bad because you have a maga hat on you should experience what a lot of people experience we
01:51:28.660
loved gay people i loved gay people we are people on the right my mom everybody loved gay people great
01:51:33.320
that's an awesome experience for you that's not the universal experience for everybody there but i'm
01:51:37.360
saying there was a cultural shift before you were born okay how do you think we made that
01:51:41.380
cultural shift yes sometimes the pendulum slings a little bit but but that's my point is now it's
01:51:46.300
moving a little too far right now it feels ubiquitous and that's why there's backlash i didn't care
01:51:51.160
before if gay people got married now i don't want them married like that's that's just like a really
01:51:55.260
reactionary way to view well because because it's like you take it they take like it's like give an inch
01:52:00.720
take a mile right it's there it's never enough that's the thing what makes it right they need a
01:52:05.080
social cause to like be the victim of like what what what but it is they need a social cause to
01:52:10.200
be a victim of to constantly be in this fighting mentality it's kind of like the mark it is it is
01:52:14.140
it is fair to say that as long as you have lobbying groups and and special interest groups that they're
01:52:20.780
going to need to be in a position of victimhood so that way they can continue to that's right that's
01:52:27.120
why we now now whether or not whether or not you think that it's it's extended across the
01:52:31.020
political spectrum there's like trump bibles being put in every time anyone says anything
01:52:36.280
you're like well trump like you've literally replied with trump's name almost everything i
01:52:41.040
say and i wasn't making trying to demonstrate like it's whenever i'm demonstrating a principle
01:52:44.400
if you if you vote on the basis of some of these issues without understanding how they're ubiquitous
01:52:50.120
then you're voting in a misinformed way so i'm trying to illustrate well everyone everyone has their
01:52:55.800
own everyone has their own interest in the things that they're going to be concerned with so the
01:52:59.000
people that are that would be an lgbt lobby they're going to be voting against things that
01:53:03.280
are positive for christians or whatever that's not true that's my point though is that so then
01:53:08.160
christians vote against gay people but gay people don't vote against no not all christians vote
01:53:12.100
against gay people the the what you're alluding to maybe it's not i'm not saying that everyone but
01:53:17.060
what you're alluding to is people on the right will vote against the the the things that are good
01:53:21.500
for gay people or whatever but people that are on the left won't vote against i think sometimes the
01:53:25.400
democratic party also is successful in blowing these issues or convincing people to be distracted
01:53:31.480
by certain issues that then they don't actually have to do as much structural stuff on like the
01:53:35.920
economic things i think we should fix would be contradictory to that of a lot of special
01:53:40.040
interests powerful big pharma yes you know uh people etc and so it's easier to run on issues that
01:53:48.320
don't threaten those special interests people are right and left do but at least the democratic
01:53:54.320
party has some record of making positive economic uh progress whereas the republican party is just
01:54:01.260
using the fuel of these cultural issues so what i want to say about that is you said like oh and pride
01:54:08.940
is not exclusionary of christianity it is vice versa if you believe they mock it they dress up as
01:54:13.540
nuns and they mock it would you consider the mocking i don't like mocking religions but i'm saying that
01:54:18.320
one is saying you get to be who you are if that's a if that's a super religious you know straight
01:54:23.700
whatever that's you can be proud of that i strongly disagree with that they don't let us celebrate
01:54:28.020
you think the pride is saying everyone should be gay how does that even work but they're but they're
01:54:32.680
saying you don't want to have sex with like a trans woman so a man then that's transphobic they do
01:54:37.080
say that they say that i don't believe that anyone of note any democratic politician has ever said it's
01:54:41.620
always about the politicians because i'm not going to get bogged down do you understand the framework
01:54:45.460
engagement sells on social media so we're always going to hear these really loud idiots and i'm not
01:54:51.860
going to let my entire political analysis be skewed by that so instead i'm going to focus on relevant
01:54:55.440
people which are people in positions of power but y'all's whole world is shaped by just oh an
01:54:59.680
annoying tiktoker with blue hair i just earlier mentioned that there's and trump i just earlier
01:55:04.660
mentioned that there's a a congressperson from i believe it's from montana uh that's a trans person
01:55:11.980
that was saying um you know what was the the remark they made that trans women are biological women
01:55:18.120
so show me that and while we're getting that up i did want to point out you did mention how you had
01:55:23.980
a christian teacher what other percent like what is the percentage of teachers that pushed a left-wing
01:55:29.580
ideology onto you because i had that way more i had like two conservative teachers in my entire life of
01:55:34.260
like high school through college and everyone else was super left-wing so this is the point that
01:55:38.900
conservatives are making and you say that we just feel like we're being victimized no we know that they
01:55:43.800
want us to know we're in the minority because at every single major institution we have the
01:55:47.800
hollywood elites the college like the education system the government even though i guess trump
01:55:52.180
will be in the government now we all still know that largely there's a lot of politicians that
01:55:56.060
condemn um just being conservatives you're transphobic all these certain things i mean literally
01:56:00.720
every single major institution in america skews left so we're sick of being told that no we're
01:56:06.100
just feeling like victimized no that's the truth tell me can you answer the question how many
01:56:09.480
teachers like be honest were left-wing that you could tell i mean my school district oh it was
01:56:15.160
probably more it doesn't matter like overall so you you might have an issue like statistically
01:56:19.540
teachers wildly yes skewed down absolutely you might have an issue with the actual uh with the
01:56:25.720
outlet but the transgender women are every bit as biologically female as cis women biological
01:56:31.080
trans state lawmaker claims that's zoe zephyr the montana state rep so the trans women are women
01:56:37.640
full stop thing i don't have a problem with obviously biologically female is an incorrect okay so
01:56:41.640
this is exactly what i'm talking about the there are congress people there was a congress person
01:56:47.200
the state rep but yeah there's a there there is a trans person that was just elected to uh federal
01:56:52.860
to the to the congress and in delaware as a representative from delaware um shares these
01:56:58.300
beliefs um but i'd love to i mean see the context of that that delaware that is weird every bit is
01:57:04.920
biologically what context do you need this is no because no the reason is there's a quote within a quote i
01:57:09.960
think probably this is a total guess she might just be wrong which i will totally admit i feel
01:57:15.180
like there's a chance someone said are they biological female and she said they're every
01:57:17.980
bit a woman as a cis woman there's no context needed it's very there is because when we make
01:57:22.280
the distinction between like your gender identity right how you're identified gender identity versus
01:57:25.800
your biology biology you said biology okay but like you know within the quote is what i'm what i'm
01:57:30.840
wondering about if that was her words but maybe but it looks like that's what she said and then she
01:57:35.080
would be wrong i think the reason they put the but the quotes in there is because it's
01:57:38.100
actually like factually wrong what she said oh maybe that's not they're not actually biologically
01:57:45.060
female so she's saying they're biologically female so the quotes are to say oh no she's implying this
01:57:50.400
but it's actually wrong so yeah so then uh state rep zoe zephyr would have made an incorrect statement
01:57:55.800
there so so like you know how you were saying though that the the the left focus is on economic
01:58:00.260
issues and things like that when i know not enough but okay but when when i was watching like i think
01:58:06.280
both sides do this and it's really because the general american public is stupid but and so like
01:58:10.860
this is how they do it but if you were to look at like the marketing materials of both sides clearly
01:58:15.880
they were like fanning the flames we were looking at you know a clip that you said of kamala harris
01:58:20.140
um saying the thing about the transgender prisoners and all that right and and we were focusing on those
01:58:26.080
type of issues but at least she said it we had her literally running ads that were complete factual
01:58:34.560
lies yeah we had kamala harris saying that trump doesn't support ivf but he actually said a plan for
01:58:41.320
ivf the left time they said every time they said the the very fine people statement yeah like and it
01:58:47.120
was debunked like a million times but everyone said it over and over obama said it on the platform
01:58:51.760
context a little bit in this election misinformation context will never be censored he specifically said
01:58:56.900
i'm not talking about the white nationalists and the and the nazis yeah he specifically said that
01:59:02.340
okay but i agree it's been taken out of context but it's also not a lie because he was saying the
01:59:06.920
people who are saying wanted the statue to stay that was comprised of a lot of white nationalists
01:59:12.360
that's what a lot of that was that's a real stretch that's a real stretch when he specifically
01:59:17.320
said the two sides what were the two sides people that didn't want their history torn down yeah there
01:59:21.560
were people there that were that is but okay the statue yeah there's people like me yeah the statue
01:59:26.020
thing is like i love robert e lay i love him i love that man and and like why i've learned so much
01:59:31.840
about him and what what i can't learn history without celebrating bad parts of it wait wait he he wasn't
01:59:37.220
a bad person in general actually he wasn't even like a fan of slavery he loved see we don't have a
01:59:41.720
devotion to our land like they did back then land was sustenance for them land was survival for
01:59:47.240
them back then and so what his problem was is like he was actually a west point guy right like he was
01:59:53.760
a west point guy and he was asked to fight for the union and he said i can't fight brother against
01:59:57.960
brother and so i'm going to go defend virginia it didn't he wasn't it like general lee wasn't like
02:00:04.140
about the slavery thing as a matter of fact i think he had less than something like one and a half percent
02:00:08.940
of american southerners owned slaves yeah it was like something ridiculous that's not the point i don't
02:00:13.080
even want to get into that conversation but that doesn't mean that he was like a bad
02:00:16.000
person he was a brilliant brilliant general and and he was actually a very cool good good human
02:00:22.960
being and just because he feels some loyalty to land to land and he doesn't want to fight
02:00:27.240
whenever someone no matter how good of a person you think they were is the leader leads the military
02:00:33.780
uprising and rebellion against the united states government over the issue who fired first
02:00:38.360
slavery who who who drawled up that is not i i don't think i don't think that it's that i want
02:00:43.500
to put statues listen there's 10 minutes left or so and i don't think that it's a great idea to try to
02:00:48.320
to debate the civil war the civil war but what i would like to do on the you'd love my middle school
02:00:53.740
teacher at the very at the very the very last thing that i want to talk about is uh immigration
02:00:58.320
right the the problems at the border um i do i am interested in your takes considering the fact that
02:01:05.540
for three of the four years that president biden was the you know was was in office it was there was
02:01:12.000
no problem at the border there's no problem at the border and it was all all you know nothing's wrong
02:01:17.060
president biden himself said that he wanted to see a surge at the border when he was running
02:01:22.060
the surge came there were massive negative consequences uh for the population and now we
02:01:29.180
have a significant increase in crime and you have cities that are that are that are dealing with the
02:01:34.780
economic burdens um in trafficking human trafficking human trafficking that's happened because of it
02:01:40.720
and then for the past year the biden administration has has admitted or the past the last year of the
02:01:46.860
administration they admitted that there was problems i'd like to hear your take on that i'm interested in
02:01:51.120
in what your opinion is yeah so uh i don't want to trigger you and bring up trump again but i will
02:01:59.260
let's let's start with my criticism democrats but then let me talk about why republicans aren't any
02:02:04.700
better on this issue but first no but that's not where i'm not asking why are republicans better i'm
02:02:08.840
asking you to talk about your democrats you can talk about the democrats they are linked because
02:02:12.680
biden's inaction was in part prompted by the fact that republicans refuse to do anything
02:02:17.160
congressionally which biden thought a systemic approach is better it's not true i'll show you
02:02:21.220
exactly hold on hold on let me just say this in 2019 if you're gonna ask me a question like
02:02:25.300
give me your take on immigration i would i would like to take lisa all right so biden harris at the
02:02:32.520
beginning made a lot of bad calls they waited too long to address it comprehensively now they didn't
02:02:38.660
introduce an immigration reform thing right when they came in republicans said we don't want to engage
02:02:42.340
at all that could have been a chance to do something they did propose the border security bill
02:02:46.220
trump encouraged republicans to shoot down so there's these cases of of why republicans should
02:02:50.160
you know why the republicans why republic i know why y'all think it is but that's wrong it's not
02:02:54.480
because a bunch of people were let into the country that's not why okay what do you what do you think
02:02:58.340
well the reason because it would it would have allowed for people to people that were sorry go
02:03:03.460
sorry sorry i'm sorry i just debate this a lot sorry go so it would have it would have allowed
02:03:09.600
for five thousand up to five thousand people to be let in and it would have allowed essentially
02:03:13.840
may have been a naturalization bill it would have allowed the people that were here to stay
02:03:16.800
so no the it the five thousand point i've dealt with so much because it's not that it was that right
02:03:23.500
now encounters with the people that you're arresting if there are five thousand encounters per day
02:03:29.460
that doesn't do anything in terms of enhancing presidential powers what this bill proposed was not
02:03:34.820
that you're letting them go but instead that the five thousand triggers new power that trump never
02:03:42.060
had that obama never had that biden never had that allows you to restrict the asylum process because
02:03:46.480
right now under u.s law trump and biden same you have to hear asylum claims very expansively this would
02:03:53.700
restrict that once the encounters get out of control which is very different than just letting
02:03:57.920
them with five thousand people right up until you hear what i said but they're still getting arrested
02:04:01.340
yes okay they're still getting arrested they weren't being held they were being allowed
02:04:04.800
and and as a thing i put it in the doc right yeah i put it in the doc just i'll pull it up but let's
02:04:10.920
do the comparison later because i know that'll immediately prompt more responses than just
02:04:13.620
i do think biden harrett that hurt them a lot that issue but politically it didn't spike crime crime
02:04:18.080
has been plummeting on them but i i do think as an issue they were afraid of the really um which a lot
02:04:25.680
of beautiful people doing this work the immigrant advocates they were afraid that they would look too much
02:04:29.900
like trump's inhumane policies which he went too far in the inhumane direction like like kids in
02:04:34.140
cages that was actually fake photos from under obama the cages weren't for separating the cages
02:04:39.280
weren't for separating children like trump was doing um but yes that's when you get arrested
02:04:43.320
you know obama parents don't get and yes when you get arrested before i think that's right
02:04:47.540
kid you think it's inhumane to be arrested and then have to have your kids not people
02:04:51.420
kids should be held in jail with their parents but given the type of crime that crossing the border
02:04:56.860
illegally is and it not being a felony you can fact check me on that but okay but you're having
02:05:02.600
people if you keep them together separating the children a very traumatic thing if maybe they have
02:05:08.320
a valid um you know asylum claim and all of a sudden you're doing this crazy thing and then they get all
02:05:12.140
mixed up and it's this old but do you see why wait so my thing i'm trying to be nice to y'all
02:05:18.420
yes they waited they waited too long to take it seriously but then y'all don't have a thing to
02:05:25.080
say about it because once they were ready to take it seriously republicans went okay here's my turn
02:05:30.300
and i said i put in the doc newsweek reports trump released your your brains are going to explode but
02:05:35.580
more migrants with criminal records than biden did okay entering the u.s is a felony okay time out
02:05:40.420
time out time out thank you i mean so wait let me just go don't talk okay so here we go lisa what i want
02:05:46.600
to say is when this is like it's humane i think it's more humane to separate kids from their parents
02:05:53.400
like in these situations because you're housing them with other people who cross the border who
02:05:56.860
have not been vetted so do i want kids in this tightly quartered environment with people who
02:06:02.000
may be like adults that may be predators or things like that no you want the kids separated from them
02:06:09.220
so that they're wait let me finish you the first offense is a misdemeanor is where you got to go
02:06:13.620
let me go so so i think it's more humane to separate the kids to protect their well-being
02:06:18.880
now that said now come here you said this is my biggest thing because i did a lot of street
02:06:22.620
interviews with james klug on this the biggest thing that they say is when trump when when we
02:06:27.440
were ready to act can congress didn't want to do it let me show you this in two because i was here for
02:06:31.640
this in 2019 the democ the the democrats rejected a border wall now can you please scroll down
02:06:36.840
there and look at the things that it offered okay we were giving okay okay 800 million for urgent
02:06:44.300
humanitarian assistance uh 500 million for drug detection additional border agents immigration
02:06:50.200
judges that was huge right we also were giving keep going if you go all the way down oh yeah
02:06:55.020
allowing central american minors to apply in their home countries all these things and then in exchange
02:07:01.140
where we were giving recipients from the like the daca we were letting we were going to give more
02:07:06.580
daca recipients the ability to become naturalized and a three-year extensions of temporary protected
02:07:11.520
status for people that were here dems rejected it so when you want to give me the argument that well we
02:07:16.860
republicans didn't want to do anything no we actually gave them a way more balanced bill than they ever
02:07:22.600
put on the table but it is this is an npr article oh you're right more balanced you're right yeah we gave
02:07:27.840
more we gave you way more balanced opportunity so i don't want to hear that we weren't ready to play
02:07:32.240
ball this is what i'm talking about though whenever that wasn't biden biden wasn't in power then i'm
02:07:38.420
talking about biden because that's who was running for president we're talking about democrat versus
02:07:41.560
republican here is i can't speak for every democratic action because i can tell you this well we're talking
02:07:46.960
about the democratic congress for every republican congress rejected they just like the republican
02:07:51.200
congress oh my gosh wait no you got to talk it's my turn so what i'm saying you asked me a question i want to
02:07:56.020
i'm saying that the democrats the democ you said you're changing it back to biden like that's not
02:08:00.640
what we're doing you said the congress didn't want to act administration no you said congress you said
02:08:05.900
you brought up what did i think about the biden administration handling of the border i'm not
02:08:09.520
going to defend you on this one because i don't need you to defend i'm just saying you did ask me
02:08:13.300
about biden administration you said i want to talk about this congress let me talk about it i'm not
02:08:17.260
gonna finish my statement you said congress didn't act the congress refused act you didn't say
02:08:21.160
biden didn't act or trump didn't act you said congress and so i'm going back to
02:08:24.880
during the biden administration i said for the first three or like the first two and a half years
02:08:29.620
he slow walked he did bad bad bad i condemn and then when it was time and then on this the whole
02:08:37.480
border wall thing i agree it got so ridiculously blown out of proportion give him the damn border
02:08:44.680
wall if he wants it we tried to work with you this is what this is showing and you rejected us and
02:08:49.420
then when we reject you it's oh we are responsible for the immigration policy no you wouldn't work with
02:08:54.260
us for years when we offered way more fair policy i was told i was told that trump had fixed everything
02:09:00.280
and handed that to biden it was way better look at the stats okay way better well there was because
02:09:04.020
they were afraid of him because he was leaving leaving office but uh no the one year y'all love
02:09:08.800
was the pandemic here because migration froze because of the pandemic but i don't even know if
02:09:13.120
we want to go there um because that's like you won't speak for all democrats but just speak for all
02:09:18.040
of us you have two minutes and i wanted to get to see what we could agree on and how we could get
02:09:21.200
along but let's finish this up how about we both agree that obstructing solutions because in nancy
02:09:26.820
pelosi's case she probably didn't want to give trump a win in uh the republican-led congress they
02:09:31.560
didn't want to give biden a win is bad regardless of who's doing all right so all right so we are
02:09:36.400
gonna wrap it up um but i do want to get final thoughts would you go ahead luca what do you what
02:09:40.500
do you what do you got for us thank you for watching i've enjoyed talking with all of you go
02:09:43.580
watch on my channel we can't say what we're gonna agree on obviously we can say we'll do it a different
02:09:49.100
one isabella and i have a show once a week on sundays that comes out called the grudge
02:09:53.460
where we do a lot of this and she's way way more fiery than that's because i take over it's explosive
02:09:59.960
yeah um too much so we have to edit some out so yeah see we can't have isabella's stuff
02:10:04.500
y'all would have a difficult time editing if she went full isabella um so that's interesting
02:10:10.060
and fun time editing i do think if you're sort of like liberal curious i'm the best version of it
02:10:16.680
yeah we have a show you guys should watch it we fight we literally are yelling at each other the
02:10:20.500
entire time it's a lot of fun i do i do want to commend luke for coming and sitting and talking
02:10:24.940
with us because it really was three against one so he's a good sport most leftists won't do that so
02:10:29.620
that's really cool and yeah it was exciting i think you're reasonable and i think that we could
02:10:33.560
get to a lot more neutral ground for sure people think we can yeah i think we can agree on stuff
02:10:37.820
even though that was a whole two hours of fighting yeah that was crazy that was like yelling
02:10:42.440
that flew by that was me yelling i know but then i felt like i had to yell loud person though i know
02:10:46.480
you are oh yeah thanks for having me check out the show um i also have a youtube channel at
02:10:50.500
isabella moody underscore and yeah lisa i just want to say like i said thanks for coming out i really
02:10:56.320
appreciate it i i think we need more of these kind of discussions and it's as somebody who books for
02:11:00.540
this show specifically it's really difficult to get leftists to come on at all to even engage in
02:11:05.920
these conversations and this was really brutal usually it's not this bad it's not three against one
02:11:09.180
um so thank you and if you have any friends that want to come on send them our way and you can come
02:11:14.240
with them you can tag team in you know like oh i got a good one okay good like let's set it up because
02:11:18.560
um i think it's interesting and more people um our audience likes it like our audience wants us to
02:11:25.440
engage with you more so um thanks for coming on i appreciate it and i do i'm sad we missed an
02:11:30.140
opportunity to think about to talk about the things we do agree on because i think that there could be
02:11:33.460
lots of things so maybe next time we'll do hey what can we agree on because
02:11:37.500
and uh i want to take a second to wish everyone a merry christmas and a happy new year um see i'm i'm
02:11:45.840
