Summary
Who is Mr. Reagan and why is he so important to the culture war? Alex Blumberg takes a deep dive into the man behind the viral video about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and her rise to stardom, and why he may be the key to taking down the mainstream media.
Transcript
00:00:00.000
So a few months ago, I saw this video on YouTube about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
00:00:06.620
And I remember watching it and stopping and thinking, this cannot be right.
00:00:16.020
We went and followed up and did our own research to make sure that it was right before I started talking about it.
00:00:22.760
It was very professional, a little bit nutty at first because it's a conspiracy theory.
00:00:28.380
But it was a conspiracy theory about a 29-year-old bartender randomly becoming a socialist hero in the U.S. Congress.
00:00:41.780
According to the video, AOC's rise to stardom was no accident because AOC had been primed for the role.
00:00:49.180
She had been coached on every single policy point that she makes.
00:00:53.680
The real surprise was that this huge story came out of nowhere and went viral instantly.
00:01:00.340
It was not the work of reporters from The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, Fox News, New York Times.
00:01:10.160
The claims in the video hadn't appeared anywhere in the mainstream media.
00:01:14.900
They hadn't even been discussed by conservative media.
00:01:17.960
When I watched it, I thought, this is either really ballsy as a lie, or it's true.
00:01:27.080
It was from an anonymous YouTube person who broke a massive news story.
00:01:36.100
Nobody in the media seemed to even be aware of the story.
00:01:39.360
Not only that, this is a story that has impact on our culture.
00:01:44.100
This would not have been possible ten years ago.
00:01:47.780
Some guy, who you've never heard of, breaking a story this big.
00:01:52.320
I don't know if it could have happened five years ago.
00:01:54.940
While I was immediately enthralled, the video seemed like just one more sign that the mainstream media is fully collapsing.
00:02:02.580
Naturally, we wanted to know more about the disruptive person behind the video.
00:02:06.860
But what we found were a bunch of videos similar to the AOC video on a YouTube account that has only been active for a year.
00:02:16.340
And a guy called Mr. Reagan on YouTube and Twitter.
00:02:20.920
The name Mr. Reagan, an homage to Ronald Reagan, the great communicator.
00:02:25.420
His mission statement is a quote from Ronald Reagan.
00:02:29.560
In the culture war, Mr. Reagan is railing against mainstream media, socialism, and identity politics.
00:02:50.620
He eschews all frill, placing his unabashedly conservative stance at the center of his videos,
00:02:56.000
which is a dangerous thing to do lately, especially for him.
00:03:04.440
He can reach a million people with a rant that he filmed on his phone.
00:03:10.260
He's been shadow banned, blocked, reported, caught in algorithms, you name it.
00:03:19.780
which only adds to the intrigue of this disruptive and mysterious kind of guy.
00:03:26.760
The more of his videos I watched, the more I wondered,
00:03:46.820
He has two volumes of short stories, which are quite brilliant.
00:03:54.920
But there's not a lot of information beyond that.
00:03:58.460
So, I decided to fly him into our studios in Dallas.
00:04:02.460
I figured the best way to really get some answers was to have him come here
00:04:09.180
So, my guest today is the unknown Christopher Coles,
00:04:17.260
who has made it his mission to fight the radical left using humor and facts,
00:04:21.560
and who may very well help take down the mainstream media in the process.
00:04:28.360
I just really want to thank our sponsor of this podcast.
00:04:32.740
They remind you that it takes about 45 minutes for police to respond to a home security alarm.
00:04:40.480
But when you hear why it takes so long, you'll understand.
00:04:43.980
When a home security system is triggered, most of the times, police are just like,
00:04:48.560
it's just a false alarm because it is, like, in my house, like, a hundred times.
00:04:55.760
SimpliSafe is the only one that has video verification technology.
00:05:00.360
It helps police get on the scene up to 3.5 times faster.
00:05:09.740
And again, SimpliSafe is the only one that can visually confirm that a break-in is happening,
00:05:16.980
That makes the response time about 7 minutes instead of 45.
00:05:27.200
They have a huge deal going on right now at SimpliSafe.com slash Glenn Beck.
00:05:31.900
You'll get a free HD security camera when you order.
00:06:02.600
I assume Mr. Reagan comes from your love of Ronald Reagan?
00:06:14.380
I mean, primarily in the 80s when I was growing up and Reagan was president, there was a sense
00:06:29.740
And Ronald Reagan actually reminded me a lot of my grandfather at the time.
00:06:33.020
I saw Reagan and I saw somebody very much like, you know, my own family.
00:06:43.980
So when I decided to do a channel, I didn't want to use my real name.
00:06:52.220
But Mr. Reagan, that's a name, you know, that people would instantly know.
00:07:00.940
You know, it's strange because I was thinking about, I don't really know much about you.
00:07:07.460
You're a little cagey on, but I don't know anything really about you.
00:07:13.860
And that, you know, that used to be the norm for people who were journalists.
00:07:19.020
They, you know, Peter Jennings, I knew he was a Canadian.
00:07:24.500
Walter Cronkite, we didn't know anything about it.
00:07:32.360
But now it's, you kind of want to know who people are.
00:07:44.160
Well, you know, I'll tell you what, growing up, I was a creative type.
00:07:49.360
You know how Jordan Peterson says that he's kind of like a liberal type person, like a leftist kind of.
00:07:57.000
But really, he's conservative because he's a rational person.
00:08:00.460
You know, he sees the world and he accepts the reality that he lives in.
00:08:05.340
I think I have a very creative, what would kind of traditionally be considered like a more of a leftist brain.
00:08:12.080
I think that's partially what gives me my perspective on politics.
00:08:15.980
I know the failures of that mindset because I'm a creative person myself.
00:08:25.500
And so for me growing up, I thought I want to get into the film industry.
00:08:30.180
I used to watch The Twilight Zone and I thought, when I was 13, I saw my first episode of The Twilight Zone.
00:08:35.540
There was one in particular called Time Enough at Last.
00:08:47.100
And I said, if I could write as well as this, I would be better than any writer living today.
00:08:53.100
And so I was hooked at that point, you know, that point on, I was a writer in my mind.
00:09:02.120
Pretty much just a perpetual failure for many, many years.
00:09:05.300
And then one day I thought, you know, let me do what they're doing on YouTube.
00:09:09.540
Let me talk a little bit about the stuff that I believe in from my perspective.
00:09:13.200
Because when you have a creative mind and you're not really, you don't have that conservative, logical brain, you can see why a romantic brain would fail in creating policy.
00:09:26.880
Because there's these temptations to strive for a utopia that can't exist.
00:09:35.340
But I fight it and I recognize, you know, the frailty of that.
00:09:41.120
I mean, you can see what happened in Venezuela and USSR, you know, in China.
00:09:47.480
What's funny is it's usually the artists that drive a society in that direction.
00:09:59.140
They're the ones who are writing the poetry of woe is man that actually pulls you back out of it.
00:10:11.120
No, I mean, artists are necessary, but they are very powerful.
00:10:18.460
I don't think people understand that because we don't spend the time, because I think I have an artist's brain as well.
00:10:29.520
And so I do see things differently, and I can relate on how people can see things that way.
00:10:42.740
In a theater, I want all of the lefties on stage, because they're probably pretty good at doing a show.
00:10:50.300
But I want everyone who's a conservative running the box office.
00:10:55.660
And if I don't have that, if I have the lefties in the box office and the conservatives on stage, it's a disaster.
00:11:11.940
It's a really beautiful analogy for, you know, when you're talking about the theater.
00:11:15.360
And the producer needs to be somebody with that sort of almost like a banker's mentality.
00:11:27.880
I feel like politics needs to be dispassionate, because this is from a storyteller's point of view.
00:11:37.360
Do I let these hundred people die, or do I fix the situation so only 13 people over here die instead?
00:11:47.600
But sometimes politicians have to make awful decisions like that.
00:11:50.620
And it may not be that drastic, but there's always some kind of compromise that needs to be made.
00:11:55.360
Some people are going to be hurt, and some people are going to be benefited.
00:11:58.120
And those are cold, calculated moves that need to be made by, you know, a calculating brain.
00:12:03.160
Yeah, because otherwise you get into where we are on the border.
00:12:11.160
And right now, Central and South America are going down.
00:12:14.960
They've hit an iceberg, and they're going down, and nobody wants to be there.
00:12:19.620
Well, at some point, if you're in a lifeboat, you have to get away from the sea of people,
00:12:32.960
We care about the precious cargo of the people.
00:12:35.520
Because as long as we have the people, we can rebuild the ships.
00:12:41.200
And we're swamping our boats now, our lifeboats, and we're not going to be able to help anyone.
00:12:48.480
And what's crazy is you, those who actually are behind all this, they know that.
00:13:00.680
But those who are, you know, saying, yeah, we should give health care to anybody who comes
00:13:09.420
And we need to let everybody come across the border at the same time.
00:13:13.220
You know, that's something I've struggled with for some time.
00:13:23.120
What's somebody's motivation and what's their intention?
00:13:34.560
No, but it's really, that's just how you break down, like, what are you really trying
00:13:47.840
You get these ridiculously rich people, and you get these ridiculously poor people with
00:13:53.940
But you realize, you know, if you really think about this, the motivation is, you know, back
00:13:59.360
in the feudal times, you had the rich, you had the poor, and there was no movement.
00:14:03.640
If you were born poor, you were going to stay poor.
00:14:07.200
Now that we have capitalism, now that we have a market system, a poor person can become
00:14:12.040
And not only that, but when, as the rich get richer, the poor get richer too.
00:14:19.940
So you're taking these poor wretches out of poverty and putting them into like the middle
00:14:27.000
Even if the rich get ridiculously richer, I don't care.
00:14:29.860
As long as we're keeping these people from starvation.
00:14:32.280
Our problem today is that the poor people are too fat.
00:14:37.560
Fixing that's a lot better than fixing starving children.
00:14:39.780
You know, but, you know, you say as long as we keep these people from starving, I would
00:14:47.300
say as long as you keep the possibility alive that even the starving can become whatever
00:15:00.880
And you just don't get that with another system.
00:15:03.900
But haven't we, when you say capitalism, it tests horribly.
00:15:08.400
But when you say free market, it tests like 70% favorable.
00:15:18.920
To me, it's all, you know, the same kind of thing.
00:15:20.600
But when people think of capitalism now, I think they think that America is a free market.
00:15:28.040
We are less free as a market than they are in Sweden.
00:15:33.800
And the Swedes think we're nuts for what we're doing now.
00:15:42.540
But as a, overall, the free market is not free.
00:15:46.680
You, Bill Gates couldn't have started Microsoft.
00:15:51.900
The problem that he said that they had, they have now is Apple was smart.
00:15:58.320
They put all of their people in Washington, D.C. to lobby.
00:16:06.020
One thing I heard once was that if you're starting out a business, the only way to really
00:16:10.620
do it because it's so expensive because the regulation is to cheat.
00:16:14.340
You cheat until you get caught and then you stop cheating and you got to work within the
00:16:18.040
system until you have enough money or they, they notice you.
00:16:23.120
That's what, that's what people are trying to run away from.
00:16:26.520
The corruption in, you know, in Russia and what a hundred percent.
00:16:33.000
And we are becoming those same kinds of people.
00:16:36.360
With the more regulation you get more that way.
00:16:40.100
Because everybody finds a way around the regulation.
00:16:47.120
You know, because if you can't start a business without going through all these hoops and
00:16:50.040
you can't go through the hoops, what do you do?
00:16:54.940
I mean, I'm, I'm a, you know, I'm hypothetically, I'm a rule follower.
00:16:59.040
But in reality, you know, you have to do what's right.
00:17:02.540
And that, that sometimes means breaking a couple of rules, you know.
00:17:14.200
And let's use Google and Facebook and YouTube as an example.
00:17:20.180
Now the rules are so everywhere and also so nebulous.
00:17:25.860
I mean, I know Steven Crowder, he's with his attorneys and YouTube all the time saying,
00:17:33.560
And the rules keep changing and they're never really fully explained.
00:17:43.680
Well, I did, you know, I got a manager and so I can put in ads now.
00:17:51.360
I would get ticked for, you know, demonetization on this video or that video or whatever.
00:17:58.960
Now that doesn't matter so much now that I have ads on my show.
00:18:05.040
Because as soon as I did my AOC video that blew up, that you, by the way, I got to give
00:18:10.140
you so much credit because you were really the only one that took that seriously.
00:18:15.980
But for the most part, everybody just dismissed this as politics as usual.
00:18:19.000
And I said, if this is politics as usual, then it's a way bigger story than just AOC.
00:18:28.660
I mean, it was very reminiscent of what I have done in the past.
00:18:33.100
And so I recognize when somebody has put in a lot of work and I know the one thing that
00:18:39.100
I always thought would happen was that honest people would look at it and they could look
00:18:45.720
past the showmanship of it and they would say, gosh, that looks like a pretty good case.
00:18:55.940
With some simple checking, what you came up with and what you demonstrated was absolutely
00:19:05.800
Well, so pretty much after that, pretty much every video after that was demonetized.
00:19:10.680
It was simply anytime I would post a video, demonetized.
00:19:14.600
Not only that, but YouTube had announced prior to that, they had announced that if anything
00:19:20.380
comes anywhere close to anything like a quote unquote conspiracy theory, they were going
00:19:28.300
That was their, I don't know, right or their policy or something like that.
00:19:32.540
But they didn't really explain what borderline, they call it borderline.
00:19:37.520
Me talking about the caliphate in 2010 was called a conspiracy theory.
00:19:43.840
Well, pretty much anytime you mentioned George S on the YouTubes, it's considered.
00:19:49.580
So I looked into him because, you know, there were some ties there to Zach Exley and there
00:19:53.720
were some ties from Zach Exley, which you were on to Zach Exley in like a million years ago.
00:19:59.400
I mean, you were on to that guy even like at the very beginning, like way before any of
00:20:02.480
us knew who the heck he was, before I think even you knew who he was.
00:20:05.420
But anyway, so I figured out there was a connection between AOC and George S. And I was like, wow,
00:20:14.640
that's kind of fascinating. Let me dive into the stuff about him because, you know, a lot
00:20:21.960
of people like, oh, this is all conspiracy theories. A lot of people are like, no, seriously,
00:20:25.440
he's got his fingers and everything. So I thought, okay, okay, let me really dive in.
00:20:28.900
And it was astonishing to me, astonishing how, not only how right you were when you, when
00:20:35.960
you did that, when you did that huge, you know, it was a huge thing. It was a huge thing,
00:20:39.720
but also just since then, how much stuff that he's done. I mean, the guy, he really wants,
00:20:46.400
I mean, it's like megalomania and it's, and it's so much of it is true. I, I, I can't even
00:20:52.580
remember seeing an article that I thought, you know, that wasn't backed up by evidence,
00:20:58.260
that it wasn't clearly true that this was happening. And now they're saying, okay, yeah,
00:21:03.060
with the district attorneys and stuff like that, you know, or yeah, district attorneys
00:21:10.280
Attorney generals, right. And, and it's, it's weird. It's like, why do you want, and that's
00:21:15.420
what I was talking about, struggling with the motivation and attention. Why would a billionaire
00:21:18.740
care so much? Why do they want to control the United States? Especially when he, you know,
00:21:25.220
Maybe he's, I mean, he is, he's quoted, uh, in his own book and on video saying it's fun.
00:21:33.420
Yeah. Yeah. No, he is. You're right. And yeah, some people get hurt with these little experiments
00:21:45.260
I know it's a really, it's an amazing thing that you wonder other than, other than not
00:21:55.240
wanting to be on the wrong side of him, which is a scary place to be.
00:21:59.780
Absolutely. Right. Um, you wonder, is there no one, is there really no one that thinks
00:22:06.680
this? I mean, the left used to be against star chambers, you know?
00:22:12.240
Yeah. And he's as close to you get to, as you can get to a, like, you know, the, the
00:22:17.980
classic movie star chamber. I was going to say, people should watch that movie. They haven't
00:22:22.220
Yeah. I mean, he is really as close as you can get to that, um, uh, without going into
00:22:30.140
Yeah. Yeah. It is, it is a weird thing. And it's not just him though. I mean, there's
00:22:34.320
other leftist billionaires. It's bizarre. It's like my, my theory has been that if a person
00:22:41.220
has an opportunity to change the world, he will convince himself that doing so is good
00:22:46.640
because it will put you in the history books. And for whatever reason, especially if you're
00:22:52.220
rich, especially if you're very, very rich, like billionaire level rich, you want to be
00:22:57.300
in the history books because what else are you going to do? You've, you've accomplished
00:23:00.300
all these other goals, you know, in your life. You don't really have any roles to go. Oh,
00:23:04.540
I actually put my name in history. If I do this little thing and tweak the world in such
00:23:08.500
a way that it makes a historic change. Yeah. But that historic change might be the Holocaust.
00:23:13.960
That historic change might be something utterly devastating to people. But in your mind, you're
00:23:18.800
like, but I really want to get in the history books. So I'm going to figure out a way why
00:23:23.340
sending tons and tons of migrants into Europe is actually a good thing.
00:23:28.500
Devastating to people, devastating to people, but he can make a difference, quote unquote,
00:23:33.740
you know, so he's going to go ahead and do it. Back in 2010, I talked about how the caliphate
00:23:40.220
would be formed. Middle East would be set on fire. Caliphate would be formed. And that
00:23:44.420
would spread up into Europe through, you know, immigrants that would destabilize. And then
00:23:52.240
it would come over here. It's the same people saying that this was good. Then we got in Europe,
00:24:01.380
you have to take that this is good. You have to take them. Yeah. That are saying now we
00:24:06.440
have to take everybody who comes across our border. And they're now in Europe apologizing
00:24:13.360
to Europe saying, oh, I'm sorry, that was really bad. That destabilized things. But they
00:24:17.620
don't recognize it over here. They're not honest brokers. No, I'm currently reading The Strange
00:24:23.220
Death of Europe. Great book. And it is. There is something to be said for the preservation
00:24:30.400
of culture, you know, and nobody likes to talk about that when it pertains to European
00:24:37.040
cultures, because it's white people, you know, it's the people who were the colonists at one
00:24:43.180
point. So there's either the argument that we've got to pay for our sins, or there's the
00:24:47.820
argument that, you know, we're the bad guys and everybody else is the good guy. Or there's
00:24:52.220
the argument that we have all the wealth. And so we need to be generous to help other people.
00:24:56.280
And that argument I actually, to some degree, agree with. But have you seen the bubble gum
00:25:02.100
or the bubble gum, the, yeah, I think it's bubble gum, gumball, the gumball video on YouTube?
00:25:06.840
I'll send this to you. It's an amazing video. There's this guy, he just has a bunch of gumballs.
00:25:10.840
And he says, this is how many poor people there are in the world, like truly poor. And it's
00:25:15.980
unbelievable, like just tons of gumballs. He's like, this is how much, how many immigrants
00:25:20.140
we take in every year. Takes one gumball, puts in this little glass. He says, this is how many
00:25:25.120
illegals come in. He takes another gumball, he puts in the glass. He goes, this is not
00:25:28.100
helping anything. It's like every year, this is how many more poor people are born. And
00:25:32.180
he pours like a whole thing of gumballs. It's like, you think we're helping the world out
00:25:36.060
by taking, you want to feel good about yourself by taking one gumball of immigrants into your
00:25:40.780
country? It's like, no, you got to help people out where they are. We got to figure out systematic
00:25:44.420
approaches to helping people throughout the world. The immigration thing is just going to hurt
00:25:51.520
I think, um, but I think that's what the free market does. That's what, that's, that's the
00:25:58.440
best way to help people out is to teach them how to fish. I mean, even if you've seen the Bono
00:26:03.580
speech that he gave at the London School of Economics, here's a guy who's been given charity
00:26:09.140
forever who finally comes out and goes, you know what? None of this is work. I've been doing
00:26:14.600
it forever. None of this works. The best thing we can do is strengthen capitalism, the free
00:26:19.820
market. Give them access to the free market and, and help them help themselves. You know,
00:26:28.160
I saw that same video and he just seems so sad. He seems so defeated. Wouldn't you, your life's
00:26:33.280
work and you realize it was a waste? Absolutely. I see, you know, it's in one way it is a little
00:26:39.520
depressing to see somebody who feels that, that way that like, you know, they've struggled so
00:26:43.560
long and it hasn't worked because you want to believe, and that's the, that's the sort of less
00:26:46.740
leftist idealism that I'm talking about. You know, there is this idea that I can make a difference
00:26:52.580
and you, you know, you can potentially start a business or, you know, there's many, many ways to
00:26:57.820
actually help within a system that is effective. Um, but these like kind of little, uh, you know,
00:27:04.180
idealistic ways to try to fix the world. If they're not effective, you do have to abandon them.
00:27:10.820
And it is sad, especially for an artist, especially for somebody who's a dreamer who
00:27:14.500
really wants to do those things. But really, I mean, if you truly want to help people,
00:27:18.680
you really have to focus on the things that work and the market works. I mean,
00:27:23.280
like you said, teaching people to fish works because of the individual.
00:27:26.920
Yeah. You know, we're, we're losing sight of the individual. So, you know, we've all worked at
00:27:32.460
places where somebody has an idea, you might've had an idea. And then there's somebody always at the
00:27:37.680
table who's like, that's not going to work. And you're just like, Oh, shut up. It would work if
00:27:43.420
we could all get on the same page where the leftist goes wrong is eventually they remove that
00:27:50.180
person from the table and anyone else that might be thinking that way. And, uh, if they have to
00:27:57.560
forcibly remove them, they will forcibly remove them because we are going to do this because it will
00:28:03.220
work. And the more it doesn't work, the more they can't be proven wrong. It's got to be somebody
00:28:09.580
else that doesn't believe in it. That's screwing it all up. Yeah. You're a hundred percent right. I
00:28:15.360
mean, this is why they're trying to silence all the voices on, on YouTube, on Twitter,
00:28:23.860
I'm not as concerned as some people because, and the main reason is because I think there's
00:28:29.780
enough of us now, um, who are aware of what's happening that I don't think that they can get
00:28:35.760
away with it. And I think they kind of know that you're laughing at me. Yeah. I remember when I was
00:28:41.720
young and naive. Maybe I'm a little optimistic. Okay. Uh, okay. What is your, what are you thinking?
00:28:47.400
Let me, let me just go to justice Democrats. Well, those guys are definitely like, you know,
00:28:53.220
they have upped the game every step of the way they do it under the cover of darkness. Uh, and they
00:29:02.300
get worse and worse and worse. And it's a conspiracy theory and nobody, everybody is told, Oh, don't
00:29:08.560
worry about it. It's not that big of a deal. Only when somebody is there to replace the justice
00:29:14.200
Democrats that are worse than the justice Democrats, will we hear and really accept what the justice
00:29:20.720
Democrats were doing? Well, you're a hundred percent right. And, and, and their, their plan
00:29:24.720
is actually a relatively effective plan if they can pull it off. So why don't you explain who they
00:29:29.880
are and what, what their plan is? Cause they just pulled off something. They just got a district
00:29:35.660
attorney elected. That's, that's the craziest thing I've ever seen. Let's hire the chief law
00:29:41.920
enforcer to not enforce the law. Yeah. Yeah. I mean the same thing's going on with, with what happened
00:29:47.760
in Portland, uh, I was looking into the chief of police up there and they're like, we want
00:29:52.080
to do community policing, which is essentially like, but not arresting Antifa and like not
00:29:57.500
doing your job. Okay. Let me get into brand new Congress and justice Democrats. So originally
00:30:02.300
it was called brand new Congress. This is a, the brainchild of a guy named Zach Exley. Zach
00:30:06.420
Exley is a, a Soros minion. Um, and he, this comes from a long line of, of people who had similar
00:30:14.100
ideas, but the idea was to completely replace Congress with, uh, socialists really. They
00:30:19.660
call themselves progressives. They're far left Democrats who want redistribution and all
00:30:25.120
this kind of nonsense. I think we have, cause I'm a, uh, I'm pretty well read on the progressive
00:30:31.180
movement and I believe that we are now out of the progressive movement. Yeah. Oh yeah.
00:30:36.300
We are now in the socialist, straight up socialism. Progressives are, progressives are people like
00:30:42.480
Joe Biden and he's, he looks like he's a dinosaur. Yep. That, that era is over. The progressives
00:30:48.380
brought us to the doorstep of socialism. And now the socialists are like, good, sit down.
00:30:54.020
We'll take it from here. Well, we should actually dive into the word socialism because to use
00:30:58.400
one of your words, the great word nebulous, uh, socialism is now a nebulous term, which it
00:31:03.000
never was historically. I mean, socialism was essentially synonymous with communists as a
00:31:07.600
Marxist idea, right? Of the redistribution of wealth in the communist mold with, and
00:31:13.160
well, socialism is, I mean, I know the technical definition. Well, it used to be the step between
00:31:19.460
capitalism and communism, communism. People think, oh, that's when the state gets really
00:31:24.460
ugly and puts everybody in a gulag. No, not according to Mark. No, no. According to Mark
00:31:29.120
is the ideal. It's the utopia. It's the utopia. And then when they say, oh, well that wasn't
00:31:33.380
really communism, they're actually right. According to Mark, it's not that it will
00:31:37.980
never happen. It's not hypothetical communism. It's the result of what happened. Look, this
00:31:41.700
is why communism doesn't work. You put, you tell everybody that they just got to work as
00:31:46.300
hard as they can and we'll, we're going to pay you all the same. And a lot of people say,
00:31:50.620
you know, if I don't, if I don't have to work harder than this guy, like, why am I working
00:31:54.680
so hard? And then you go, okay, well, people are being less productive than we need them to
00:31:58.560
because everything's run by the state. And so then you have to have a class of enforcers,
00:32:02.260
right? And instantly you have two classes. You have the oppressed class and you have the
00:32:07.320
oppressor class, right? And, and this creates, uh, an instantaneous authoritarian dictatorship
00:32:13.620
because you have to control the masses. You have to control them with violence. It's the
00:32:17.460
only way or force. It's the only way to do it. Um, and so always communism will turn into that.
00:32:22.460
It will always turn into that, but they don't against human nature. Completely against human
00:32:27.460
nature. And we've tried it. We've tried it for religious reasons. The Mormons tried something
00:32:31.680
like that. They called it the United order. I think the pilgrims tried it. We had the
00:32:37.140
pilgrims. I didn't know about the Mormons. Yeah. It was the United history. Yeah. United
00:32:40.860
order. They had, um, they were really struggling. They said, put everything together, 100% tithe
00:32:46.920
and you just work. And it fell apart that fast. It is such a beautiful dream. I love the dream. I love
00:32:54.960
the idea that people will motivate themselves to help out the, their fellow man. Right. But people
00:33:00.320
are so lazy and selfish. That's exactly what happened. They were, they were like, well,
00:33:05.640
you know, brother, so-and-so's not doing it. So, I mean, I'm not going to work all day and
00:33:10.380
have him sit around and do it. It's not right. Mormons came to the conclusion. This is a great
00:33:15.480
idea. And when Jesus comes, maybe he can convince everybody to be on board. You know what? Maybe
00:33:22.420
that's right. I mean, it is, I think it is the way Christ would rule, but nobody's Christ. Everyone
00:33:29.280
else needs a gun. Right. Exactly right. Yeah. And if you have a strong motivator and maybe that
00:33:34.620
motivator could be God himself, you know, if you have a strong motivator, then yeah, you'll be,
00:33:39.600
you'll get productive, you know, productivity out of people. But the, but the motivator is in America
00:33:46.640
is you can better yourself. Absolutely. You can better your station. You can better. And one of
00:33:52.600
the problems is, is we've been convinced that you can't better the nation. Right. You, I mean,
00:33:57.340
sorry, your station, you can't better yourself. My kids will not be better off than I am.
00:34:02.200
Hopefully we can better the nation. Yeah. No. Yeah. Yeah. It's a, I don't know because it's such a
00:34:07.300
benevolent system in terms of the distribution. Cause what we're really doing is redistribute,
00:34:14.580
redistributing opportunity. That's what capitalism is. Communism is redistributing
00:34:18.920
the, the fruits of everyone's labor. Uh, but capitalism is redistributing opportunity because
00:34:24.640
you want, you really want the best of the best. So it's in everybody's best interest to educate
00:34:29.200
everybody well to everybody at the top of the game. So the best of the best is better than the
00:34:33.560
best of the best last year, you know, and you can, you can choose from, you know, everybody who is
00:34:38.800
amazing in America helps everybody else. So it's in our best interest to make everybody
00:34:43.820
amazing. I'll try to get back to the, I have a tendency to go off on these.
00:34:48.420
Yeah, me too. So go ahead. Um, well, so the brand new Congress, the idea that they originally had
00:34:53.220
was completely mental. It was, let's replace all of them, what they would call establishment
00:34:59.160
Democrats, the Joe Bidens. Let's replace all of them with these far left progressives or
00:35:04.360
essentially socialists, AOCs. They, they were saying, let's, let's do a bunch of Elizabeth Warrens.
00:35:09.780
We want everybody in Congress to be Elizabeth Warren. That was their idea,
00:35:12.320
but it wasn't just the establishment Democrats. They were also going to, this is, and this is
00:35:17.720
completely nuts. They were going to go after red States, red districts, Congress, because people
00:35:22.760
don't know who their Congressman is. People don't know who they're voting for, for Congress. A lot
00:35:25.960
of people just hit the R, you know, if they're a Republican, they just hit the R. So, so they
00:35:31.240
were, so they were, um, their idea was let's go into these areas in which there's very, very little
00:35:36.480
voter turnout because everybody just expects the Republicans going to be elected. And let's bring a
00:35:41.140
progressive in there to campaign as a Republican in their primary. And let's go to all the progressives
00:35:48.140
in the area kind of quietly and tell them all, oh, vote for this guy. Because even though he's a
00:35:52.800
Republican, he's really with us, he's really a progressive. And they'd get them on the ballot
00:35:58.780
as a Republican, right? They'd win their primary because nobody votes in that region anyway.
00:36:02.440
And then everybody who, you know, who needed to vote in the, in the, um, in the general would
00:36:09.280
just tick the box for Republican, right? They wouldn't even think about it because that would
00:36:13.160
be the Republican nominee, right? Is this progressive, this socialist, and that's how they're going
00:36:17.320
to sneak socialists in, into Congress as Republicans. That's so, I mean, it's completely mental.
00:36:24.640
And do we know that they're not doing that? No, I think that they still plan to do this. I think
00:36:29.800
the only guard we have against this kind of tomfoolery is telling people about it. I think
00:36:37.180
if people know what's going on, they'll know what to look for. And especially reporters and people who
00:36:42.060
look into this stuff, hopefully people will get the word out of it. This kind of goes to, uh,
00:36:46.680
almost the, the, what was the saying from Hitler that the more outrageous, the lie, the more likely
00:36:53.980
people are to believe it, where this is the, the more, uh, outrageous the act. Yeah. You know,
00:37:03.120
you could, you can pull off the outrageous because people will go, Oh, come on. That's ridiculous.
00:37:08.400
This is, this is why people think Soros is a conspiracy theory. That's right. A lot of these big,
00:37:13.280
the big lie, right? This is these big lies are, they work because people just dismiss them as
00:37:19.180
it's crazy fiction. Yeah. Yeah. He's got to be making this up. You're not going to get rid of
00:37:23.800
the free market system in America. Well, if everybody thinks that and they don't do anything
00:37:27.820
to protect it, we will, we will. Okay. So justice Democrats, uh, they changed their name. Why did
00:37:36.320
they change their name? Do you know? Yeah. Cause they started to work with, uh, Cenk Uygur of the,
00:37:41.980
uh, the young Turks. It was a real piece of work that guy. I mean, he's actually not quite as crazy
00:37:47.220
as a lot of people, but he's very bombastic, you know, and he's got a loud voice and he's got a
00:37:51.900
big channel on YouTube. The young Turks got a very large, uh, pocket book. Yeah. So he got in,
00:37:59.640
he got in with Zach Exley and Sycott Chakrabarty and that whole team that were doing the brand new
00:38:04.380
Congress thing. And he, um, Cenk pitched it to the young Turks audience as justice Democrats. So
00:38:11.620
he, he had either, he had a similar idea or he took that idea and, or something happened where
00:38:16.500
they had a parallel idea and the brand new Congress guys said, okay, well, he's got this huge audience.
00:38:23.160
So we're just going to call it whatever the heck he wants to call it. He wants to call it just
00:38:26.720
Democrats final call. Just so they changed the name, I think for Jenks, you know, and that's why
00:38:31.540
originally, in my original video, I said, uh, Jenk was the mastermind cause he, he sort of pitched
00:38:35.400
it that way. Like he, it was his idea. It is only until I researched further. I realized now he's
00:38:39.940
just a, he was sort of being used, um, as a man of peace. Yeah. Front man. Um, the, um, the propaganda
00:38:46.640
wing of the, of the, uh, brand new Congress justice Democrats party, which I, they really should be
00:38:52.880
their own political party cause they're really their own crazy thing with the green new deal and
00:38:56.500
paying people who don't want to work and crazy. It's legit mental, but the, the third party doesn't
00:39:03.700
work, especially right in a democratic party because of the super delegates and everything
00:39:08.520
else. They, you're going to, you'll die on the vine. I don't know why they do that over there,
00:39:13.380
by the way, the super delegate things because of Mr. Reagan. Do you not know that, that story?
00:39:18.780
No, I don't know why they did the super delegate. I just know it's a problem for them every single
00:39:22.300
election. Yeah. Well, they saw Reagan take over the Republican party and become so radical. And
00:39:29.900
here's this guy who was so radical, took over the democratic or Republican party and changed the
00:39:36.060
course of the Republican party. And they would did not want that to happen. So back in the eighties,
00:39:42.420
they said, how do we safeguard a radical from coming in and changing us? So they did the super
00:39:49.120
delegates. Right. So that kept people like Bernie Sanders out, et cetera, et cetera.
00:39:54.720
The people don't get as much of a voice as the DNC. Correct. Ah, gosh, these guys, I mean,
00:39:59.280
it's just a, it's just a PR nightmare for them. They really need to fix that because people want
00:40:03.920
to believe that they have a voice. Even if I think on the left, it's, it's tough for, for to be a
00:40:09.960
leftist, I think today, because they don't distinguish. This is something that I keep talking
00:40:14.080
about on my channel on the right, you know, white supremacists and KKK, but they're all accused of
00:40:19.800
being right wing. I don't consider them right wing. They're not. I consider them their own
00:40:22.940
delusional thing. They're all national socialists. Exactly. Exactly. That's not right. Identity.
00:40:28.880
Yeah. Identitarians. Yeah. And, and so, but on the left, they don't, they don't distinguish
00:40:33.560
themselves on the right. We say that's not us. Okay. We, we distance ourselves. We're like,
00:40:38.200
those guys are toxic. We don't have anything to do with them on the left. They don't do that.
00:40:41.820
They don't say, oh no, no, no. Antifa doesn't speak for me. They say, they, they justify what
00:40:47.460
they're doing. They'll say, well, I don't believe in violence, but you know, it actually kind of
00:40:52.240
makes sense because they're not so bad. They think, they think the same thing I do. It's
00:40:56.020
like, what are you doing? You have to distinguish yourself from your crazies. The same thing that,
00:41:02.540
uh, those in Germany, uh, when they made excuses for the brown shirts, you know, yes, but there's,
00:41:10.040
they just want order and yes, they get out of hand from time to time and they think they can
00:41:15.460
control it and they will never control it. You can't put the genie back in the bottle.
00:41:19.680
Yeah. Okay. So go back to, so, so, uh, uh, the justice Democrats get their new name and what do
00:41:27.880
they do? Okay. So they do, they do this casting call. They, they decide that, okay, we're going to
00:41:32.760
try to put, Cenk convinced them not to do the Republican thing, right? Not to go into these
00:41:38.400
smaller districts. And he's, he's like, let's just focus on the establishment Dems. We want to
00:41:42.700
get those guys out. Cause he really hates the establishment Dems, which is something I kind
00:41:46.420
of understand. Cause he thinks that they're kind of bought and paid for by wall street and corporations
00:41:50.820
and this kind of stuff. They all are. Exactly. I mean, shouldn't say they all are a lot of people,
00:41:54.920
both on both sides. Yeah. On both sides. And I'll, I'll agree with Cenk on that. Okay. So in that sense,
00:42:00.340
he's, you know, that's why I say he's like not the worst of them, right? You know, he's got a legit
00:42:04.180
beef, you know? So, okay. So he wants to get the establishment out. He wants to get these
00:42:09.060
progressives in, which I don't think is any better, but he thinks they're better. So he convinces them
00:42:13.820
just to go after the Democrats. And that's exactly what they do. And they get just a, they don't get as
00:42:18.340
many as they wanted, but they get a ton of nominees for, um, for Congress, um, for, it was 2016,
00:42:25.700
right? And AOC was one of their people and they got a few in, I don't remember all their names right
00:42:33.060
off the top of my head. Cause I, it's been a while since I did that stuff, but, um, they got a few of
00:42:37.620
the people in and they, and they sponsored, they like said, okay, we were kind of aligned with some
00:42:41.880
people who were already in Congress, stuff like that. Um, but AOC was really their home run. I mean,
00:42:48.500
that was the, uh, new evidence has surfaced to suggest that AOC wasn't actually, um, nominated
00:42:57.020
in the same way everybody else was because one guy that's been investigating this stuff for a long
00:43:01.540
time suspects that she knew Zach actually from before the nominating process happened. So she did
00:43:06.400
go through the process the same as everybody else, but it was like a show to make it look like everything
00:43:11.020
was fair when in reality they'd kind of handpicked her beforehand and said, you're, you're, you're,
00:43:15.320
you're golden. But the idea was that they would bring in people in a nominating process and then
00:43:20.860
they would, um, go over their resume and, and hire them in the same way that you would hire
00:43:25.200
an actress. Right. And the idea was that they write the script and these congressmen read the
00:43:33.380
script. Right. And, and they talk about this in their video. They say, well, you didn't have any
00:43:37.380
interest in running for office before us. Right. And she's like, no. And they say, you know,
00:43:41.480
this is a group first movement, right? So this has, this has instructed all of your,
00:43:47.760
everything that you've said and done since you've been elected, it's been a group first,
00:43:51.520
right? You've been following the, and she's like, absolutely. And there's just admitting
00:43:55.800
to it in the video. I mean, it's, it's, it's, it's stunning. When you see the video, it's stunning.
00:44:01.000
It's amazing how transparent some of these people are.
00:44:04.700
They don't think, I don't think they're doing anything wrong.
00:44:07.040
I remember when we exposed the tides foundation and one of the guys who was behind the tides
00:44:11.860
foundation for the Obamacare, he said, some people say this is a Trojan horse. I know this
00:44:16.760
from memory because I played that video so many times on television. Some people say this is a
00:44:21.360
Trojan horse. It's not a Trojan horse. It's right there. I'm showing it to you. We will have single
00:44:28.140
payer healthcare. And that's a big defense of the justice Democrats and brand new Congress and,
00:44:33.000
and the young Turks. They'll say, I don't know why you think this is some kind of evil conspiracy.
00:44:38.680
This is on the table. We're showing it to you. We're broadcasting it. We want everybody to know
00:44:42.700
what we're doing. But once you say it, what happened to you? I know anything close to a
00:44:48.280
conspiracy. How could it be a conspiracy? Here it is. They're saying it. I know. And Snopes got on me
00:44:55.700
and BuzzFeed got on me. Fact checkers. Yeah. Yeah. Quote unquote fact checkers. And they're like,
00:45:01.020
oh, you know, there's, there's, there's several reasons why this is false. One reason that it's
00:45:06.020
false is that, you know, everybody's doing it. It's like, no, not everybody is doing this. Another
00:45:12.140
reason it's, it's not true is because it's not a secret. They've, you know, they've talked about this.
00:45:17.480
It's like, okay, you can murder somebody in secret or you can murder somebody in public.
00:45:20.580
He still murdered somebody. It's still bad. And I, I don't remember what the last point I was
00:45:25.740
going to make is, but yeah, they're trying to fact check. They also like to fact check the idea
00:45:30.060
that I said she was an actress. Right. Um, as if she has like a SAG membership. Yeah. Right. And I,
00:45:36.900
I wrote, these guys wrote me and I wrote them back and I said, look, you know, that was a metaphor.
00:45:42.200
You know, that I was saying that as a way to explain what she was doing. You know, she was a
00:45:46.120
casting call. It wasn't a casting call, but it, that's a good way to
00:45:50.400
illustrate it. You were in Hollywood. You were clear in that video. You were using a
00:45:56.060
metaphor. Yeah. And like, why would you fact check that? I heard that, uh, Snopes actually
00:46:02.460
fact check a couple of, um, Oh, what is it? The Babylon Bee articles. Oh, that's so funny.
00:46:08.400
So funny. I love the Babylon Bee. They're like, well, you're fact checking parodies and satire. And
00:46:14.380
it's like, what are you doing? These guys have no credibility. They just, they're just, again,
00:46:19.560
they're like a propaganda thing for, for leftists. So why are they so effective? Because they did it
00:46:24.600
with AOC and they just talk a little bit about, I'm assuming, you know, the new district attorney,
00:46:30.020
uh, from the same district from AOC. Uh, yeah, no, I actually haven't read about, about her.
00:46:35.900
This is crazy. But I, I, you know, I, obviously I saw it in the news, but I didn't actually do my
00:46:39.540
research. So same exact story. She's going to be the district attorney. Um, one of the tweets,
00:46:47.380
excuse me, sir. Um, one of the tweets that I saw her, um, uh, make right after the election
00:46:53.760
was the reason why we won is because of our very dedicated, uh, door knockers and, uh, and workers.
00:47:03.340
Yeah. They were sex workers, ex-cons, really, and illegal immigrants in her tweet, illegal immigrants,
00:47:13.340
ex-cons, and sex workers. This is the district attorney. Yeah. That's who we want. Right.
00:47:19.880
Executing the criminals of New York city. Oh my goodness. And it, this was all done and organized
00:47:26.060
by the same justice Democrats. Yeah. They, they have such a bizarre agenda. And by the way,
00:47:30.860
that was a five term sitting district attorney. Oh no. A Democrat. Yeah. A Democrat. Yeah.
00:47:36.740
They're not coming. There's, there's no one in the press that is talking about the civil war
00:47:42.340
in the democratic party. Oh yeah. It makes the tea party look like nonsense because when we did the tea
00:47:49.180
party, we thought we were making progress. We weren't making any progress. Those guys are going to do
00:47:55.680
whatever the hell they want. We made no, no real progress lasting in my opinion. And that's why
00:48:01.940
Donald Trump is there. Cause everybody was pissed. Okay. Really? You want to play that game? Okay.
00:48:06.480
Meet our junkyard dog. Right. That's exactly right. Yeah. That's exactly right. These guys are actually
00:48:11.540
making an impact. I was talking to Joe Lieberman and he said, I said, where are the, where are the
00:48:16.120
Democrats who don't believe that we should abandon the free market? He said, Glenn, they're all afraid to
00:48:22.480
say anything. Yeah. They're terrified of those guys. There is a war and the, the rational left,
00:48:29.000
if you can even call them that, they're losing the war. They're losing the war because the radical left,
00:48:34.480
the, the socialists, they, their voice is so loud and what they're saying is interesting to people
00:48:39.340
because it's stuff that people haven't heard really. At least they haven't heard it in a way
00:48:43.780
that sounds good. I mean, it was always, you know, portrayed, I think accurately as, you know,
00:48:50.880
a devastating, you know, system, uh, to, to implement government wise. But these guys are
00:48:57.860
presenting it as if, no, it's going to be good because it's going to help save Miami from going
00:49:02.740
underwater and, you know, all these ridiculous. So, so what is it? Do you think they actually
00:49:08.300
believe, um, I, you know, it's a good, it's an excellent question. I, I think that it has, okay,
00:49:19.520
I'll tell you what I think. I think that there is a fundamental delusion within the left and I don't
00:49:25.840
even think it's just the progressive radical left. I think it's like, even if like a hair left, even
00:49:31.060
the moderate left oftentimes accepts this, which is that there are good guys and there are bad guys and
00:49:36.640
they want to be one of the good guys. They want to be a white knight. They want to stand, you know,
00:49:41.600
tall and say, I'm a good guy. And the good guys are, well, okay, let's go with the bad guys first.
00:49:47.740
The bad guys are men. The bad guys are the white colonialists of, of Europe, you know, you know,
00:49:54.360
the colonized America and the other places, uh, Christians, traditional Christianity is the enemy,
00:49:59.180
right? Because Christians, you know, persecuted gays or something, right? So, and the good guys are LGBT,
00:50:05.560
ethnic minorities, immigrants, Muslims. These are the good guys. So in their mind, it's not like
00:50:11.300
they, it's almost like they can't fathom that some Muslims might be bad. Some black people might
00:50:16.080
be bad. Some white people might be good. Some men might be good. They just have this line that they
00:50:20.380
draw and they say, these are the good guys and these are the bad guys. Let us design a society
00:50:24.820
that punishes the bad guys and that elevates the good guys. And their whole system functions on that
00:50:30.900
delusion. And so that's why I always say the left will always be wrong. They will always fail in
00:50:38.880
attempting to design a society that works because they've got these fundamental delusions about who's
00:50:43.800
good and who's bad. And you've got to look at people as individuals. Some people are good and
00:51:04.820
You say they always fail, but they don't always fail. Sometimes it takes 70 years. Sometimes it
00:51:10.060
well, right now they don't always fail immediately. They don't always fail. Yeah. Um, and, uh, I'm not
00:51:16.440
convinced these guys are going to fail. No. Well, they, they are a danger and you make a really good
00:51:21.500
point. And that's something I didn't think of is working off the template of justice Democrats and
00:51:27.220
brand new Congress. Another group could form that could be even more effective. And that is actually
00:51:33.220
kind of terrifying. If you had another outside group come in, because it's a powerful idea to be part
00:51:38.700
of a group and, and the really, to me and a winning group and, and, and the really annoying thing is
00:51:45.480
that the people who voted for AOC didn't know that, that she was just parroting, you know, some
00:51:51.180
writer's script. And when you say that, I saw your video and what was shocking and it explained her,
00:52:00.600
it totally explained her, um, how she was saying exactly what justice Democrats were saying four years
00:52:08.480
before she obviously got the script, which to me totally explains when, how do you feel about Israel?
00:52:15.720
Yeah. Well, Israel is a bad place. They're the oppressor. Well, can you tell me more about that?
00:52:28.700
Right. And it shows that she's learning things. She's repeating and regurgitating
00:52:33.560
something that she doesn't believe that she's been told or taught or whatever. And there's no depth
00:52:40.060
there. Yeah, no, there's no, she doesn't fully, she is so emblematic of so many leftists that I've
00:52:46.140
met throughout my life, either back home in Oregon, where I grew up or in Los Angeles, where I live now,
00:52:51.980
who don't really know anything about politics, but they heard a couple of talking points on MSNBC or CNN.
00:52:57.840
You know, they heard Don Lemon talking or Rachel Maddow. They heard some kind of talking point and
00:53:02.320
they were like, yeah, yeah. The Israelis are so mean to those Palestinians. Right. Right. Like,
00:53:07.920
you know, so I'm for the Palestinians because they're the underdog, you know, that they work on
00:53:12.620
an emotional level. They'll say, these are the underdogs. These are the oppressed and these are
00:53:17.540
their oppressors. These are the bad guys. And if you want to be good, you'll join us in defending
00:53:22.180
these oppressed, these poor oppressed people. And the conservative will go, but didn't they just send
00:53:26.280
a bunch of missiles against their so-called oppressors? And they'll be like, yeah, but
00:53:30.560
I mean, come on. Those are just like little missiles. Yeah. Right. Right. And, you know,
00:53:35.400
the Israelis have such a good defense system that it doesn't even really matter. That's right.
00:53:39.600
It's like, what are you talking about? They're literally trying to murder these people.
00:53:42.700
And they're stating it. Yeah. Then they're stating it openly. Yeah. And they'll, if they find
00:53:47.180
somebody on their own, sort of like, you know, a lost lamb, rape and murder and awful stuff
00:53:53.700
happens. And it's just, it's, it's a pretty nasty situation over there. Um, and it's a
00:53:59.020
nuanced situation. Granted, um, there, there is, you know, there are, like I said, there's
00:54:03.560
good and bad people on both sides in every group, but what do you, what do you make of
00:54:09.340
the, of the relationship? Have you looked into the relationship of Elon on, uh, Elon Omar
00:54:17.580
and, uh, and care and the Muslim infiltration of this radical revolutionary wing of the
00:54:26.960
democratic party yet? Uh, no, I haven't gone into the Muslim thing. A lot of people really
00:54:31.580
wanted me to, um, cause it's very important to a lot of people. Um, but I, you know, that's
00:54:38.020
a tricky one. I mean, that, that one takes a lot of research. Again, you really have to,
00:54:41.580
you have to, yeah, you have to really get, get into it. Um, I have some, some Muslim friends
00:54:47.260
really good people, you know, really, really solid people that, that are, you know, family
00:54:52.560
people that are trying to make their way and do the right thing. And the left, I think
00:54:57.340
does have a valid concern that people will become, um, hateful of anyone who is Muslim.
00:55:06.380
True. If we don't educate people on the difference between somebody who follows Islam and somebody
00:55:14.440
who is an Islamist, right? If you're an Islamist, you believe that the, the, the caliphate must be
00:55:23.100
executed, that there is no law outside of the Quran. And those are dangerous people and they
00:55:29.240
are oppressing. I mean, the first ones they're going to kill are the, are the people who follow
00:55:34.480
Islam, but don't are not Islamists. So they're on the front line. Right. And I think, uh, people
00:55:40.140
that are good Muslims, they understand that and we're betraying them. Yeah. Um, and you
00:55:46.500
know, care is, is, uh, uh, a front for Hezbollah. Yeah. And you know, how does a woman, if you
00:55:56.040
are, if you are, if you are with, uh, care and Hezbollah, uh, how do you get away with
00:56:07.140
being for women's rights, uh, and all of these things, gay rights, how are you for those things?
00:56:15.080
And unless your, your Hamas front group is suddenly just a really good, you know, non,
00:56:26.600
right. Uh, Quran following group. Yeah. That doesn't want death to Israel, et cetera, et
00:56:32.620
cetera. Well, have you heard, I think there's this idea in Islam, I forget what it's called,
00:56:37.880
I think it's to cure or something like that. You know, to cure has this idea that you, and
00:56:43.140
it's interpreted in different ways by different Muslims, but the one, one interpretation is
00:56:47.780
yeah, you just pretend that you believe the things that your host country believes or your
00:56:52.400
host country. If you are, if you are, um, standing with the Quran and standing with what, uh, the
00:57:01.960
Quran actually says, according to them, that you can lie to further these goals. Uh, and you're
00:57:11.340
perfectly cool. And that is such an awful thing to have in your culture because how can anyone
00:57:18.620
trust anyone from your culture? Well, that's part of it. That's the same with us though.
00:57:22.860
I suppose that's true. I suppose anybody can lie. Anybody could lie. I mean, that's not in
00:57:26.760
our scriptures, but that's the problem in our culture. You're right. That's true there. I mean,
00:57:31.800
but like I said, there are good and bad people in every group, but written into their actual laws
00:57:37.820
is, is this, and, and again, not everybody interprets it that way, but no, there's a
00:57:42.100
read my book. It is about Islam, right? There is clearly an Islam that is a reformist movement
00:57:51.540
that a lot of people, but all the people in that group are afraid of the Islam. A hundred
00:57:57.940
percent. Yeah. And the Islamists are, are the danger. At the end of the day, I think that
00:58:05.440
the, the good Muslims need to stand up against the Islamists. Why would they? I'll tell you
00:58:12.740
why. Because it's, it's going to always be hard for them everywhere they go. If everybody's
00:58:19.580
afraid that they might be a terrorist. Right. So they know that, but I have good friends who
00:58:25.160
are, who are Muslim, uh, Judy, uh, Judy Jasser, who, uh, is an amazing, uh, guy. He stands
00:58:34.020
firmly against it. His life is hell. I know. I know. Because the bad guys will shut you down.
00:58:40.360
Yeah. But I think that in a group, in a large enough group, if it was a movement that happened
00:58:46.880
in mass, right. That it would not be possible to, but who's going to, again, just, I'm just
00:58:53.380
trying to put myself in the, in the mindset. I mean, I'm totally sympathetic as well. I
00:58:58.280
mean, I am. Of an American Muslim who they've gone to Congress and they've begged, they've
00:59:03.340
cried, please listen to us. We're your, these people are coming over. They're in our communities
00:59:10.520
and you're turning a blind eye and the media, they come out, they're hating. Well, you, you,
00:59:16.300
you're getting to really the crux of the issue, I think, which is that anytime the left
00:59:21.620
pretends that something doesn't exist, like to me, if something's real, if there's a real problem
00:59:28.340
that legitimately exists in the world to pretend that that problem doesn't exist, does not make
00:59:34.520
you a good person. But the left thinks that it does. The left thinks that every racial problem
00:59:41.000
that exists doesn't, no, that doesn't exist because I'm not a racist. It's like that doesn't
00:59:45.460
make you not a racist to pretend that there is not problems in the black community does not
00:59:50.000
make you not an Islamophobe because you're pretending that there is no such thing as
00:59:55.080
Sharia law or, you know, radical Islam or any of this stuff. They just pretend that it doesn't
01:00:00.720
exist so that they can pretend that there are good people and they love everybody and blah,
01:00:04.020
blah, blah, blah. It's like, look guys, not tackling a problem doesn't make you a good
01:00:08.180
person. It just makes you a coward, really. But that's what the left wants to do. They want
01:00:12.960
to pretend that they're a good person. They think that pretending these problems don't exist
01:00:15.960
makes them good. The fact that you think that there's problems in the black community,
01:00:20.040
that makes you an evil person. Correct. It's so stupid. You're never going to solve a problem
01:00:24.920
that way. Never. Never. We would never. And that's really what I fight against on my channel. It's
01:00:30.380
like just the instant, like without hesitation, you're a racist, you're, you're a homophobe,
01:00:36.240
you're an Islamophobe because you're willing to accept that one of these groups may have an
01:00:40.540
issue. So it's, you know, I thought the Showtime is running this, um, series on, uh, Roger Ailes
01:00:47.820
and Fox. Hmm. Yeah. There's, there's actually two. There's the Showtime one. And then there's
01:00:52.360
a feature film coming out, which I am in. Are you really? I have a line. It's a very short
01:00:57.880
line, but I have a line. What do you play? I play, I'm in O'Reilly's booth. I'm in O'Reilly's
01:01:04.020
booth. And I, what is my line? It's, um, Oh, uh, Drudge, Drudge took down the reporter. So I yell,
01:01:11.040
Drudge took down the report and everybody runs the computers. It's great fun, man. I was with
01:01:14.600
Margot Robbie. We had a great time. She's awesome. So, um, they're doing this, uh, this series and
01:01:20.040
I haven't watched it yet. Um, but I will. And, uh, um, as I was watching the trailer, I thought
01:01:29.100
this is true. Uh, you know, the things that I've seen in a trailer and the sexual things
01:01:36.040
that were going on, I absolutely believe didn't see it myself, but I absolutely believe, um,
01:01:40.920
the culture there was very, very toxic. Um, with that being said, Hollywood is a much bigger
01:01:49.380
expert on Harvey Weinstein. And so why isn't there a movie or a series or a documentary on
01:01:58.620
Weinstein? They don't want to open that door. I think because they're still afraid. Um, nobody
01:02:07.340
in their community wants to hear it because so many people were involved, uh, in it. And
01:02:12.740
so you're not, they never will take on their own community first. Take the beam out of your
01:02:18.920
own eye first. I love that scripture. Yeah. I love that scripture. You know, I'll tell you
01:02:24.360
what, I do think that there is, there are enough conservatives in Hollywood that are,
01:02:29.620
that are secret conservatives that we're getting to a tipping point where I do think
01:02:36.040
that they're going to come out of the closet, you know, as a, and then they kind of went
01:02:39.760
back in the closet. I, I, well, you're talking specifically about the Harvey Weinstein situation.
01:02:43.480
I mean, no, no, no. I mean, no, no, no. I mean, um, friends of Abe. Well, right. Well,
01:02:49.640
no, no, no, no. There's, there's still groups. Trust me. Oh yeah. I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm there
01:02:54.640
on the front lines. They, they, you know, they have to meet in secret. We actually had
01:02:58.780
somebody, um, I won't say who come to speak at one of our events the other day and there
01:03:03.980
was like government helicopters, you know, making sure that everything was, was, uh, copacetic.
01:03:11.980
Anyway. Um, yeah. So yeah, it's, it's an interesting thing to be out there in Hollywood, but I do
01:03:16.940
think that there is going to be, do you remember Miramax in the nineties started to do independent
01:03:22.440
films, but it was obviously distributed by, by Miramax and a lot of them had big budgets.
01:03:27.680
That was sort of like, Oh look, we're doing our own kind of interesting thing over here
01:03:30.720
because there's a market for this in the nineties. They like this ultra violent sex stuff.
01:03:34.580
I think that there may be a pocket for that in Hollywood now for conservatism. I think that
01:03:39.860
somebody, a smart producer will figure out, okay, there is a market to be, you know, there's
01:03:46.160
money to be made here. Like a lot of money, a lot of money. If they were to make feature
01:03:50.620
films that were marketed to conservatives, that had conservative values, that hired writers
01:03:55.200
like, you know, conservative writers, I think that there's money to be made there.
01:04:00.800
So the only one that I can think that could do this is Jason Blum, but Jason needs to,
01:04:06.500
I mean, with, with his theory was with, with, um, horror films was that Blumhouse?
01:04:12.640
Yeah. Um, and his theory with, with, um, horror films, which is where he started was he was
01:04:19.620
watching the studio system and people who are not fans of horror movies were making
01:04:24.240
them. And so they weren't made for fans of horror movies. And so he said, you know what,
01:04:31.120
I'm going to take the horror movie business out here and I'm going to make sure that the
01:04:35.540
only people who are making it are the fans of horror movies and look at how well his,
01:04:40.780
now he's one of the biggest studios. Correct. And he's doing that with, I mean, in fact,
01:04:44.720
the Fox movie is made by Blumhouse as well, but what he's doing is, and if he does this,
01:04:51.860
if he does this right without necessarily going to the people who are making church films,
01:04:57.540
sure, sure, sure. Yeah. I know it will work. Hollywood does these, these God films or conservative
01:05:06.200
films and they're just ridiculous. Made by leftists. Correct. They don't, they don't know
01:05:12.440
how, you know, I could never blend in at a Barbra Streisand cocktail party, you know, and
01:05:19.400
go and just pull that off. I couldn't do it. Yeah. That's what they're trying to do. If
01:05:23.960
they find the good directors that know how to make a, a good movie, not a message movie,
01:05:31.960
a good movie that just doesn't assault me all the time. A lot of money. Did you see, did you see
01:05:40.220
Captain Marvel? Yeah. Yeah. I watched that specifically to see what the, oh man, unbelievable,
01:05:48.800
just, just unbelievable in your face messaging from beginning to end. I, I walked out of that
01:05:55.680
thinking. I don't, I don't, I, my Marvel magic, you know, my honeymoon period with Marvel is,
01:06:03.380
is over. And it was such a, it was just, it was hard to watch really because it, and you
01:06:08.680
know, the crazy thing is on Marvel movies, what was the one where they had the ships up
01:06:13.900
and they were monitoring everybody and they were going to, you know, start just to, you
01:06:18.160
know, laser all of the people that disagreed. Remember it was, uh, it was one of what all
01:06:24.280
of the, does anybody know on the crew? What was it? Winter Soldier? Winter Soldier. Yeah.
01:06:28.780
Okay. That was a conservative movie with conservative principles, but I don't think any liberal knows.
01:06:35.560
I watch movies all the time and I'm like, did they drop the gear in their brain when they
01:06:42.440
were reading this? Yes. But they never seem to get it. Well, occasionally they'll throw us
01:06:48.600
a couple of crumbs. Uh, you know, there was this moment in, uh, which I think was the first
01:06:52.820
Avengers movie where, um, Captain America is going to jump off of this flying airplane
01:07:00.440
helicopter thing and he's going to go fight Thor. And, uh, somebody said, uh, somebody
01:07:06.180
goes, uh, Hey, Hey, watch it. You know, you don't want to get involved with this. Like
01:07:09.800
these guys are practically gods. And he goes, there's only one God, man. And he doesn't
01:07:13.300
dress like that. And he jumps out of the thing. I was like, yeah, it's a great line. It's a
01:07:16.700
great line. And whoever wrote that line either has a little conservative in them or they just
01:07:22.360
got it. You know, they got that. Okay. This is going to be a little, this is a little crumb
01:07:25.780
for the conservative, little religious Americans out there who want to see this. And like, you
01:07:29.700
know, good for them. You know, they're not, they don't care about that stuff anyway, but
01:07:33.120
they, they know that we like it. Okay. But you know, to me getting excited about that
01:07:37.480
stupid line, you know, which is, you know, it's a cool line, but it's just a little line
01:07:41.280
in a movie. I, that's such a good indication to me. It's such a strong
01:07:45.260
indication that if you just made a movie, that was a good movie that was tailored to
01:07:51.520
conservatives. Personally, I think most of the Marvel movies, because they were so Stan
01:07:57.940
Lee do have that American underpinnings. And I think that's one of the reasons why they
01:08:03.800
are so successful. Not all of them, but a lot of them have those, you know, underpinnings.
01:08:09.060
The, um, uh, shoot, I lost my train of thought. I don't know. The Star Wars movies were, are
01:08:20.340
like, to me, a disaster, right? It's like the complete opposite of Marvel. You're, you're
01:08:24.540
a hundred percent right in that, you know, and I think one of the things with the Marvel
01:08:28.480
movies, they're not afraid to have a straight white guy be the, the leader, you know, or the
01:08:34.220
hero or something like that. Every other movie that is ever made today, if you're a straight
01:08:39.000
white guy, you're either a doofus or you're the villain. Those are your two options really
01:08:43.300
for straight white guys. The Marvel movies are the only sort of bastion left, you know,
01:08:48.200
in Hollywood for like an old fashioned action movie or an old fashioned adventure movie where
01:08:53.140
it's amazing to me that we've destroyed all of our heroes. Yeah. And yet we're, we're making
01:08:58.640
these heroes up and they generally reflect the principles of the old America and they don't,
01:09:05.500
and they don't see that. They don't get that. They, they're just doing it for money.
01:09:09.840
Yeah. They're, they're so misreading. Can, can I change subjects? Please. Um, let's talk
01:09:16.180
about the news of the day ish. Okay. Let's talk about, uh, first of all, what's your take
01:09:23.160
on Biden and, uh, and all of the candidates. Let's go through them. Yeah. Yeah. I've done
01:09:30.160
specials on all of them. Uh, there's a lot. Let's go through them. Easier said than done.
01:09:33.840
I know. I know. Uh, let's take the top few. My, my favorites, Tulsi Gabbard is she was
01:09:38.260
my favorite from before. Um, I don't think that she brought up the things that I liked
01:09:42.380
in the debates. Um, but I think that was smart because she's not trying to get my vote. She's
01:09:46.740
trying to get the Democrats vote. So it was good that she sort of pandered a little bit
01:09:50.380
and said some lefty stuff. Um, Biden, I really didn't expect him to go down quite as hard
01:09:56.860
as he did, uh, with, uh, Kamala Harris. I remember watching that kind of confused
01:10:02.860
cause I, cause I'll, I'll be honest, I didn't know about this busing thing that happened before
01:10:07.800
I was born and it wasn't something that's like really in the history books because it
01:10:11.360
was sort of like a, an add on to the civil rights movement, right? It was like this extra
01:10:15.980
added extra that nobody really cared about. So I listened to that. At least on the West
01:10:20.160
coast, perhaps. Yeah. At least. Yeah. Maybe. And I was watching that and I thought,
01:10:24.840
okay, so you were part of the second class of students in California specifically to
01:10:30.960
have some kind of force busing, whatever that means. And you were that girl. Okay. What
01:10:37.860
did you just say? And who the heck cares? And I remember thinking like the way she said
01:10:44.520
that leftists are going to love it. They're just going to eat that up. Cause I'm watching
01:10:48.660
it and I'm thinking she like said practically nothing, but the style was there.
01:10:52.560
I have to tell you, I, I, I think you're at the beginning of, uh, of the road and I'm
01:10:57.640
surprised that you didn't frame it differently because you are a writer. Oh, sorry. Yeah.
01:11:01.960
Okay. How should I have? And you're a storyteller. No, no, no. In my opinion, the reason why
01:11:06.780
that was effective is because she knows how to tell a story. Well, that's exactly right.
01:11:11.360
Yeah. She, that's kind of what I was getting. Yeah. Okay. She, she started telling the story
01:11:15.680
about this little girl and right. I mean, the alarm bells go off. You know how it's going to end
01:11:20.560
using the element, but she knows how, and that little girl was me. Yeah. And so she connected
01:11:27.080
with the American people. She literally could have said anything, any story about catching
01:11:32.480
butterflies. That little girl was me. Yeah. And you knew they were going to be like, Oh,
01:11:37.100
I'm voting for her. Right. So, so to me, she is the most dangerous for Donald Trump because
01:11:44.760
if she can get, she's not trusted on the economy, she's not trusted on healthcare,
01:11:49.280
she's not trusted on anything. Race relations because of that line, maybe, but everything
01:11:53.560
else. But she is dangerous because how does Donald Trump, who does Donald Trump, how does
01:12:05.360
he take her apart on the debate stage? It's a good question. I, I, you can never underestimate
01:12:11.900
Trump. Trump is a wild card, man. Oh, I know. I imagine. And I've not seen him play. No, I've
01:12:19.440
seen him play a bad hand over and over again. And yet he walks away from the table with all
01:12:24.580
the chips. And you're like, how did that just happen? What just happened? He's like a magician.
01:12:28.540
I a hundred percent agree with you. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you what, I always discounted Kamala
01:12:32.740
Harris, which maybe I shouldn't have done because I knew she was articulate. I knew she was savvy.
01:12:38.040
I knew she could tell a good story. She's a prosecuting attorney. The way she speaks is excellent.
01:12:42.360
She presents herself beautifully. Yeah. But the way she started her career is so problematic
01:12:48.260
for her. And I don't know how she can recover from that. In San Francisco? Yeah. In San Francisco
01:12:52.860
with Willie, Willie Brown. I mean, I don't think most people know about that. I mean, I've talked
01:12:58.680
about it on my show, but I don't have a huge reach. And it's like, how do you start your career by
01:13:03.240
being somebody's girlfriend and then not come back and then go run for president? I mean, everybody's
01:13:08.780
going to be like, uh, I don't want you to be my president. I mean, you would think that, I mean,
01:13:13.580
maybe we're not in America. We're so far away. Maybe we're so far away. I mean, I, I don't
01:13:18.020
know if you've ever watched the show, the flash. Yeah. The, the, the CW show. Yeah. Yeah.
01:13:23.000
Sure. Yeah. So, you know, their theory about, you know, the multiple earths, this is from
01:13:27.740
earth seven. That's a, that's a DC comics thing. Yeah. I think we just keep slipping onto different
01:13:32.480
places. Cause I'll wake up and I'm like, when realities, when did the language change? When
01:13:36.580
did everything change? Look, I I'm all for, I'm all for forgiveness. You know, I'm all for like,
01:13:41.540
you know, people can change and you know, people have to go through stuff and whatever. Um, and so
01:13:46.720
I don't like holding people to something that they did 30 years ago. Um, so, so maybe that's a good
01:13:52.860
thing that we don't care about that anymore. You know, maybe that's okay. Well, but I wait, you
01:13:57.100
know, wait, wait, I mean, I'm with you as long as it's consistent. They clearly care about the past.
01:14:03.580
Oh, sure. Sure. Sure. I'm not talking about leftists. I'm just talking about like generally,
01:14:09.420
generally speaking, I think it's a good thing to forgive people. And I wouldn't, I, I personally
01:14:14.160
wouldn't hold it against her. I just, I'm trying to read the tea leaves and try to figure out how
01:14:17.680
America is going to react. So how is America? Are we, we're seeing a slide with Joe Biden.
01:14:26.580
I, it's, it's a tough thing because he, you know, I always said like, wait for the debates
01:14:31.560
because everybody was like, Oh, you know, Joe Biden, he's, he's, he's got the top numbers. And I'm
01:14:35.960
like, yeah, cause he's got the best name recognition. That's it. He's the only, he was
01:14:39.120
the only establishment guy with name recognition. Like all of the other moderates. Um, gosh,
01:14:47.300
Yeah. I spent most of the night on that first night going, who, I don't, who is this?
01:14:51.880
Well, I did a whole thing on this. I knew what they all were. Hickenlooper. The hell
01:14:56.120
is John Hickenlooper? Yeah. John Jacob Hickenlooper Smith. That's what makes me think. Uh, and
01:15:02.020
he's an all right guy. I mean, a lot of these guys are all right. People in Colorado
01:15:04.340
would be mad at me for saying that, but, um, you know, in terms of personality, they're
01:15:07.540
fine. Hickenlooper is a kind of funny guy. Cause he, um, he went to a, a, um, deep throat
01:15:11.860
with his mom in the movie. Did you hear about that? Oh yeah. That's crazy. A lot of these
01:15:15.820
guys have such funny stories. Uh, Mike Bravo didn't make that. That's not a funny story.
01:15:19.320
That's just a weird story. I've been funny in this sense of odd. Yeah. Like, yeah. It's just
01:15:24.720
odd, odd folks. And, um, who was the other guy? Delaney. Delaney is a moderate. Uh, how about,
01:15:29.640
uh, Marianne Williamson, if you want to talk about weird. Okay. So yeah, that's not moderate.
01:15:33.580
That's crazy land. That's weird. She's a cult leader. She's like a legit cult leader. That's
01:15:38.260
why she sounds kind of good when she's on stage, right? Like the way she speaks is a little bit,
01:15:42.760
she's the course in miracles lady. She's yeah. She's, you know, an Oprah kind of, uh, guru.
01:15:51.400
She's had a lot of practice speaking in front of audiences. So she presents herself well and
01:15:55.660
she's kind of authoritative, you know, but the stuff she says is so crazy. It's crazy.
01:16:00.980
But it makes good television. I'm going to harness love and I know love will win. You
01:16:06.220
know, you are insane. If you think you are going to say something like that to Donald Trump
01:16:11.500
and he's not going to destroy you. Listen, I would love it if she was right. Oh my gosh.
01:16:15.860
I would love her to be the candidate. Yeah. Just to see those two on stage would just be just
01:16:23.400
outrageously great. I'm not even sure Trump would know how to deal with her. He'd just be like,
01:16:26.140
I don't know how to deal with this. Now it's all crazy. That's all you'd have to say. That's all
01:16:31.640
he'd have to say. I don't know how to deal with this woman. And I think that says everything we
01:16:35.500
need to say here tonight. Uh, okay. So Elizabeth Warren, you know what? I felt like people were
01:16:45.020
like, Oh, she did well in the first half that she did bad in the second half. I felt like she did
01:16:48.340
well in her opening gambit. And then each subsequent thing that she said, I kind of
01:16:53.800
started to tune out. I think she's easy to tune out. And Sanders is easy to tune out,
01:16:58.580
even though he's shouting at everybody like an old man on the front porch, you know, yelling
01:17:01.780
at the teenagers to get off his lawn. He just looks crazy now. You know why he looks crazy?
01:17:07.160
Because everybody else is crazy. Oh yeah. He is crazy. But, uh, somebody, somebody said,
01:17:11.480
I don't know why I didn't recognize this before I had to learn this from somebody on Fox or
01:17:14.520
something. But, um, everybody's adopted his platform. So many people have adopted his
01:17:21.400
ridiculous, absurd policies that he's boring now. He's just considered like there's some
01:17:27.360
old guy shouting the same things, everybody else, but he just sounds a little weird or
01:17:30.660
doing it. So people are kind of, I think, I think that he's done. I mean, I kind of predicted
01:17:35.700
this beforehand. Elizabeth Warren had her day in 2016. She didn't take it. Bernie Sanders
01:17:41.260
had his day in 2016. He got screwed. I mean, he got screwed, um, by the DNC. Um, I think
01:17:47.560
the excitement over those two is, is over. Elizabeth Warren probably has a lot more steam
01:17:52.000
than Bernie, but yeah, she, I thought she was, I really thought she was over the Indian
01:17:56.420
thing. It was just like, I am 15 times more Indian. This is where do you 15 times more Native
01:18:03.340
American than she is. Yeah. She's as white as, as you can possibly get. I mean, look at me.
01:18:08.400
Do I look like, you know, I have any Indian in me. Yeah. No, I can't claim. I'm just a German.
01:18:16.480
I got a little, I got a quarter of Scottish, but German is, I'm the whitest of the white,
01:18:19.880
but I'm kind of, I'm a little dark. Yeah. I don't know how I look, I look Italian somehow,
01:18:23.980
but so how do you think this is going to play out? How do you think, what do you, what do
01:18:28.900
you think we should be looking for? What does it say to you that Biden is coming down? Bernie
01:18:36.180
is coming down. Kamala is, is surging. It is fascinating. Yeah. You do see, I think Kamala
01:18:42.780
is the leader now. I mean, that's pretty much everybody's saying, but you know, it's the
01:18:46.200
first debate. So we're going to see some campaigning, some people trying to capitalize on, you know,
01:18:51.940
who surprised me actually was, um, who's New York, New York, um, uh, the, the guy, the guy
01:18:59.540
from New York that, Oh, uh, Bill de Blasio. Thank you. Bill de Blasio. I was shocked at
01:19:03.560
how good he was. Okay. You've ruined New York. Nobody's going to elect you, but you sound
01:19:09.020
pretty good at the debate. I was like pretty impressed. I was like, they are all crazy.
01:19:13.360
They're all crazy. So as you look at this whole field, who is, uh, who's the most radical?
01:19:19.420
No. Who's the one that you look at and say, there's a real danger, um, to this person because
01:19:28.200
they're, they're a real true believer in radical revolution.
01:19:36.280
That's a good question. Well, who are you thinking of? I know you got somebody in mind
01:19:39.920
probably if you're asking the question, I think, I think, well, Bernie Sanders, I mean, I'm talking
01:19:47.340
about not for the election. I'm talking if they're president, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth
01:19:52.140
Warren. Oh yeah. Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren are, are, are for sure. Yeah. But you
01:19:57.600
know, it's, it's kind of a different question. Who do you think is doing well and who do you
01:20:01.920
think is the most dangerous? That's what I'm asking you. It's not, I'm talking about which
01:20:06.680
one would you say once they got in, if they win, that's the most dangerous person. Maybe,
01:20:12.660
maybe, uh, uh, Marianne Williamson, but, uh, yeah, no, no, no, but I, I do. Yeah. You're
01:20:18.940
a hundred percent right. I mean, it's definitely Bernie and, and Elizabeth Warren because not
01:20:22.960
only Bernie is a true believer for sure. I mean, he went to USSR, not Russia, USSR on his
01:20:28.680
honeymoon. I mean, that's, that's a true believer. I mean, that's a little mental. Uh, so that guy's
01:20:33.740
a full on communist. I mean, people are like, Oh, he's a socialist like Denmark. Uh, Denmark's
01:20:37.240
not socialist. First of all, secondly, he's a, he's like a Soviet style communist. I mean,
01:20:41.500
he's hardcore. Elizabeth Warren, I think maybe even more dangerous because she is an incredibly
01:20:47.680
arrogant academic, kind of like Obama was, except Elizabeth Warren, I think she taught
01:20:53.720
at Harvard, right? So she thinks of herself as intellectually superior. You know, it's
01:20:58.700
the, it's the centralized state is the whole concept of the centralized state. Well, we're
01:21:02.080
smarter than the people so we can organize everything. And we're essentially like omnipotent
01:21:06.840
and we can, we can make everything work. And it's that arrogance that I think is very
01:21:11.520
corrupting because then you start to implement things that you are confident about with, you
01:21:16.900
know, and you just take yourself too seriously. And then, and then, you know, you, you end
01:21:21.020
up nosediving the country, not, not, not realizing that you're, you're imperfect. You know, I think
01:21:28.160
she's, she's a little bit too arrogant. I wouldn't want her to be. It's a, we saw that
01:21:31.840
with Obama and the only other academic that we ever had was Woodrow Wilson. Right. The
01:21:37.460
academics are really. Yeah. Cause they, they, they just, and I've heard Woodrow Wilson was
01:21:42.500
the same, like very arrogant. Very arrogant. Yeah. Yeah. It was a nightmare. It was a nightmare.
01:21:48.100
Um, what is the thing that keeps you up at night? What is the technology, culture, uh, politics?
01:21:55.700
What's the thing that keeps you up at night? I, you know, I'm pretty good. I, I think that
01:22:01.020
we, I, I used to be much more concerned about the direction of the world, uh, when I was
01:22:07.200
younger, because I could see this sort of degradation of value, of values, of value, of
01:22:14.660
values of, of our traditional values. Um, but especially since I started my channel, um,
01:22:20.680
started to do to some extent what you're doing, not quite to that level, obviously, but, and
01:22:26.680
you must've seen it to some degree too, when you started, uh, working in this field. And
01:22:31.260
I know you've been doing this for quite a while, but you start to see how many people
01:22:35.780
care. And, and that is so heartening. Like, it's so great to see how many people respond
01:22:42.020
and some of the people are a little crazy, but I really get to interact with people, um,
01:22:46.160
on YouTube because I'll read the comment section. I'll read my Twitter. I'll read all this stuff
01:22:49.640
as much as I can. I can't get to it at all, but, um, you get to see how passionate people
01:22:54.280
are and how much people care and how many people are out there that care. Um, and some
01:22:57.920
people have very different visions, uh, you know, of the future and they have very different
01:23:01.280
concerns than I have, but the fact that they care so much and at least they're to some extent
01:23:06.000
working within the real world. I I'm so, I've, I'm so optimistic about how, you know, where
01:23:12.700
we can go with, with so many people caring so much. So are we, are we as divided as we
01:23:19.840
all think we are? Yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah. And I think it comes back to that delusion
01:23:25.840
that I mentioned before. If you genuinely believe that there are good guys and there
01:23:29.380
are bad guys and you can divide those groups by gender and race and religion, um, you are
01:23:37.180
bound to, there's bound to be a lot of collateral damage because yeah, sure. There's some straight
01:23:41.840
white Christian guys who are total jerks who are horrible, horrible people, but that's
01:23:47.180
not all of us. You can't condemn entire demographics because of the sins of a few people. And a lot
01:23:53.620
of, a lot of the excuse is the sins of a few people hundreds of years ago. It's like, oh,
01:23:57.620
you've got the same skin color and gender as a man who lived 200 years ago and had a slave.
01:24:02.600
So therefore you're an evil person. See, this is the problem. And, and Christianity has
01:24:08.780
done, I shouldn't say that. Our, our houses of worship, our religions have done such a horrible
01:24:16.980
job at keeping the message of the gospel to the individual. Everything is about individual
01:24:25.400
salvation. Absolutely. Everything is. And you know, this comes from that collective salvation,
01:24:31.440
uh, nonsense, uh, that, uh, socialists have been pitching into our churches forever that we all,
01:24:39.760
we all can only really be redeemed when we're all in it together. That's not the message and not the
01:24:48.140
message of the country, not the message of Christ. And I think our, I think our, uh, houses of worship
01:24:55.380
have really dropped the ball. All of our religions have, they're struggling because how many of them
01:25:02.760
really stand for things and can apply it to today's world? Yeah. Yeah. It's, it's a, it's a good point.
01:25:12.520
I mean, traditionally, I mean, historically, like the Catholic church had so much power because you had
01:25:18.320
this huge group of people in Europe who would go to church every Sunday and it was a natural gathering
01:25:23.660
place. It was a natural group. And if you tied those groups together and you had a centralized,
01:25:29.240
you know, government of those groups, then you had a very powerful entity. And as you know,
01:25:34.780
power corrupts and you would get a lot of corrupt people in the church. And then like you would say,
01:25:40.460
like this collectivist idea, you know, that kind of integrates reasonably well with that. Whereas,
01:25:45.480
you know, I grew up Protestant, right? Non-denominational Protestant. Non-denominal Protestant
01:25:49.320
is exactly what you're saying. Like it's, the focus is always on the individual,
01:25:54.180
even though, yeah, it's a gorge. You go to church and, you know, all that kind of stuff,
01:25:58.160
but the, it's your individual effort to become a better person. And you're right. The church doesn't
01:26:02.740
always do the best job, but I was absolutely raised that it's an individual thing. Your faith
01:26:07.440
is an individual thing. Um, to me, that's a much better, healthier way of looking at it because you
01:26:14.100
don't tie your identity to any, any group in particular. Once you tie your identity to the
01:26:19.400
group, then you become an identitarian. I mean that, that you become one of these people that
01:26:23.940
are like, well, I may not have done anything good in my life, but you know, white people invented
01:26:29.360
stuff and I'm part of that, I'm part of that group. Right. So I must be great. I must be great.
01:26:35.360
And it's like, to me, to me, that's a very, it's a very defeatist attitude because then you stop
01:26:41.180
trying yourself to do something good and to do something great in your life. Doesn't have to be,
01:26:45.860
you know, to, to be president or to do, to make major changes in the world. It would be,
01:26:50.720
you know, a YouTube star or to be, you know, the host of a major show or to do something,
01:26:54.720
you know, something that is traditionally considered great in, in, in our culture.
01:26:59.240
You can be great just by being a good man, by being a good father, by being a good husband.
01:27:03.920
Uh, I'm talking about men now, but, uh, you, you know, because I'm a guy and I relate to that,
01:27:08.240
but, but, um, just being a good person and changing a person's life on an individual level
01:27:14.560
is not only so, so it's a, it's an amazing thing to do on a one to one, like hearing people tell me
01:27:21.980
something that I changed their life on a one to one level is so much more satisfying than just,
01:27:28.060
just doing my show. Because even though my show is a fantastic way to try to shift people's views a
01:27:34.300
little bit in a way that I think is good, it's that one to one connection that really,
01:27:39.620
that is really very powerful. And everybody can do that. You can, everybody can do that with their
01:27:43.940
friends, with their relatives, with their family, just by being a good person, just by living a good
01:27:47.800
example of a good man or a good woman, good wife, a good husband, a good son or a good daughter,
01:28:04.300
