00:01:37.000 Today, a U.S. House panel has subpoenaed Bill and Hillary Clinton for Epstein testimony.
00:01:43.000 Now, the House Oversight Committee has also issued subpoenas to several former attorneys general and FBI directors, so we'll get into that.
00:01:50.000 Elon Musk and Donald Trump both have called for federalizing the police in Washington, D.C., after a member of the Doge team was beaten up for defending a young woman who was being assaulted by a group of young men.
00:02:06.000 So we'll get into that.
00:02:08.000 A.G. Paxton from Texas has asked a judge to vacate seats of Democratic lawmakers who fled the state over the redistricting vote.
00:02:16.000 If you remember, we covered this a little bit last night, so there's some development in that.
00:02:21.000 There's some breaking news about Senator Adam Schiff, who's under criminal investigation now for mortgage fraud.
00:02:26.000 So we'll discuss that.
00:02:27.000 Jim Acosta is still a piece of garbage, and everyone is aware of it.
00:02:32.000 We'll tell you why.
00:02:33.000 Michael Rappaport is having problems in Alabama.
00:02:36.000 One of his shows was canceled, so we'll discuss that a little bit.
00:02:39.000 But before we do, head on over to boonies.com and buy our brand new skate deck, Uncancelable.
00:02:47.000 It's got the old, it's not really the Iron Cross, but people got offended, and so they stopped using it.
00:02:54.000 And Tim said, well, I'm going to buy that.
00:02:56.000 And he's made it his own now.
00:02:58.000 You can also head on over to CastBrew.com, buy some coffee.
00:03:02.000 There's 1776 signature Blen Josie's special brew is available.
00:03:08.000 There is the Two Weeks Till Christmas, which has got me dressed up like Santa Claus, I guess.
00:03:17.000 Ian's Graphene Dream is available for K-Cups and for regular ones.
00:03:22.000 Appalachian Knights is still the big seller, so head on over there and buy some of that.

00:04:35.000 Elad is here.
00:04:36.000 Good evening, everybody.
00:04:37.000 I am Elad Eliyahu, the White House correspondent here at Timcast.
00:04:41.000 Let's get into the news.
00:04:42.000 Our resident illegal wrestler, right?
00:04:44.000 Resident a lot of things.
00:04:46.000 You got a good mustache.
00:04:47.000 Thank you.
00:04:48.000 I was actually.
00:04:49.000 I thought it was a little bit too short, and I've been a little bit self-conscious about it.
00:04:52.000 You shouldn't be.
00:04:54.000 Good.
00:04:54.000 You keep it.
00:04:56.000 It's very Bolton-esque.
00:04:57.000 I like it.
00:04:58.000 No, I had one for years.
00:05:00.000 I've been thinking about regrowing it, so I was looking at it a little jealous.
00:05:03.000 I'm going to regrow it.
00:05:03.000 I think you should.
00:05:05.000 I'm actually bringing the full beard back, I think, for the fall.
00:05:09.000 We'll see.
00:05:09.000 We'll see how it goes.
00:05:10.000 As a half-Italian, somebody was just talking about Dago culture.
00:05:13.000 Can you believe the vulgarity?
00:05:16.000 So we were talking about the Rizzler and how he's bringing it back.
00:05:21.000 He's bringing it back.
00:05:22.000 He's a nine-year-old boy.
00:05:24.000 Brings back the Sopranos.
00:05:25.000 There's a lot of pressure on his little chubby shoulders.
00:05:28.000 Yeah.
00:05:29.000 If anyone can do it, the Rizzler can.
00:05:31.000 Three cell phones, that kid.
00:05:31.000 He can.
00:05:32.000 That's right.
00:05:33.000 All right.
00:05:34.000 So from The Guardian, U.S. House panel subpoenas Bill and Hillary Clinton for Epstein testimony.
00:05:39.000 House Oversight Committee also issued subpoenas to several former attorneys general and FBI directors.
00:05:45.000 The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday issued subpoenas to Bill and Hillary Clinton, as well as several former attorneys general and directors of the FBI demanding testimony related to horrific crimes perpetrated by Jeffrey Epstein.
00:05:57.000 The investigative committee's Republican chair James Comer sent the subpoenas in response to two motions lawmakers approved on a bipartisan basis last month as Congress navigated outrage among Donald Trump's supporters over the Justice Department's announcement that it would not release further details about Epstein, a disgraced financer who died in 2019 while awaiting trial for sex trafficking.
00:06:19.000 Died.
00:06:20.000 Yeah, allegedly.
00:06:22.000 The subpoenas raised the possibility that more details will become public about Trump's relationship with Epstein, which stretched for years but appeared to have petered out by the time Epstein was convicted of sexually abusing girls in 2008.
00:06:35.000 Last month, the Wall Street Journal reported on the existence of sexually suggested sketch and lewd letters sent Trump sent to Epstein as a 50th birthday gift in 2003.
00:06:46.000 Does this seem like it's going anywhere, gentlemen?
00:06:50.000 Well, we all have wonderful secrets.
00:06:54.000 Very wonderful.
00:06:55.000 I think honestly.
00:06:57.000 Bill has to take, what's he going to say under oath?
00:06:59.000 I mean, he's lied under oath before about similar things.
00:07:02.000 Yeah.
00:07:02.000 Except it was a legal of age husky intern.
00:07:06.000 But this time.
00:07:07.000 Who's actually aged very well.
00:07:08.000 Have you seen new pictures recently?
00:07:10.000 She's gotten better with age.
00:07:11.000 She looks great.
00:07:12.000 She's like a fine wine.
00:07:13.000 Good on you, Monica Lewis.
00:07:14.000 Yeah, good on her.
00:07:16.000 Not on the opposite of right.
00:07:20.000 When the on you came out, I was like, oh, we got a joke here.
00:07:22.000 Yes, yeah.
00:07:24.000 All over her.
00:07:26.000 She's a dress.
00:07:29.000 I mean, if they have To actually pull out what phone records or some kind of records that he has to be honest about.
00:07:34.000 There's no doubt he's on the list.
00:07:36.000 The only thing that would shock anybody is if he wasn't.
00:07:38.000 Even his own wife would be like, wow, really?
00:07:38.000 Right.
00:07:40.000 You weren't?
00:07:42.000 Everyone knows he is, right?
00:07:43.000 Hillary would be like, I feel bad for hitting you all those times.
00:07:45.000 I know, right?
00:07:46.000 Like, I thought it was just the one girl.
00:07:47.000 Wow.
00:07:48.000 We're all amazed.
00:07:51.000 But I mean, I don't imagine that Bill and Hillary Clinton are going to reveal any information that isn't already known.
00:08:00.000 No, we all know he likes to have sex with people that aren't his wife.
00:08:04.000 I mean, but in fairness, have you seen his wife?
00:08:07.000 I wouldn't want to have sex with his wife.
00:08:08.000 No, no one would.
00:08:10.000 I don't think men, anybody would look at those, the big Maxwell House can care.
00:08:15.000 I don't think I'm doing myself any favors here, but I will say, back in the day, Hillary Clinton was not the worst-looking woman.
00:08:20.000 You're not doing yourself anything.
00:08:21.000 You're saying when she was Epstein Island age?
00:08:24.000 No, I'm just back in her college.
00:08:28.000 Yeah, yeah, back in the day.
00:08:31.000 Oh, no, you're right.
00:08:32.000 Her college photos are pretty good.
00:08:35.000 You know which one I'm talking about?
00:08:36.000 I do.
00:08:36.000 She's on the lawn, right?
00:08:38.000 Glasses.
00:08:39.000 Yeah, Search.
00:08:39.000 Yep.
00:08:40.000 Can you pull that up?
00:08:41.000 Pull it up, please.
00:08:41.000 Yeah.
00:08:42.000 Pull up hot Hillary Clinton please come up.
00:08:42.000 You're not.
00:08:44.000 Disavow.
00:08:44.000 Yeah.
00:08:45.000 There's probably not a lot of hot Hillary Clinton.
00:08:47.000 There's probably just the one.
00:08:48.000 Google should only show you one picture.
00:08:50.000 Or it's just her in hell.
00:08:52.000 Yeah.
00:08:53.000 Pull it up.
00:08:54.000 I'm telling you that she's a time where she looks relatively good.
00:08:57.000 Google hot Hillary Clinton and see what comes up.
00:08:59.000 Put moderately attractive Hillary.
00:09:01.000 I hate when people pretend that there are no hot liberal women.
00:09:04.000 Oh, there's hot liberal women.
00:09:04.000 I hate that.
00:09:05.000 I hate that.
00:09:06.000 There's many hotels.
00:09:07.000 There's at least like 12.
00:09:08.000 Of course.
00:09:09.000 We thought Sidney Space.
00:09:10.000 Oh, yeah, black and white.
00:09:11.000 I don't recall it being black and white.
00:09:12.000 No, to the right, that one.
00:09:14.000 Yeah, that one.
00:09:15.000 That's a little bit older, but the one to their right was.
00:09:15.000 That's more.
00:09:18.000 Okay, you don't have to pull the time article.
00:09:19.000 Oh, no, no.
00:09:20.000 Keep scroll down.
00:09:21.000 That looks like she just poisoned you in a horror movie.
00:09:24.000 Holy speaking of the movie.
00:09:25.000 She looks like an extra from the one with the glasses.
00:09:29.000 I don't like it.
00:09:29.000 Bell, we're supposed to go to the island.
00:09:30.000 I'm the one beside this on the group.
00:09:32.000 We're going to miss our flight, Bill.
00:09:34.000 Sorry.
00:09:35.000 I like women, but I can't tell people in this time.
00:09:38.000 To that point, I thought that after the Bill and Monica Lewinsky thing, I thought she swore off men.
00:09:43.000 I kind of got that vibe.
00:09:44.000 I don't know.
00:09:45.000 I thought she swore off men before it.
00:09:47.000 That's why.
00:09:48.000 Yeah, Monica.
00:09:50.000 You can't own that many suits and be into men.
00:09:53.000 Pant suits are okay.
00:09:55.000 They're like the Subaru for the ultra-wealthy.
00:09:57.000 They certainly are.
00:09:58.000 You know, her and her staff have always had a lot of trouble with men.
00:10:01.000 Huma Abedeen also went through, who was it?
00:10:05.000 Anthony Weiner and that whole affair.
00:10:07.000 Now, Huma Abedeen is with Soros.
00:10:10.000 Soros Jr.
00:10:11.000 Alex Soros and are probably power players, frankly, in the Democrat Party.
00:10:15.000 And we all know Anthony.
00:10:16.000 Obviously.
00:10:17.000 Anthony Weiner loves adult women.
00:10:19.000 We all know that.
00:10:21.000 You know, you could blame Anthony Weiner for helping to contribute to Trump's first election win because he, something with his emails or the case was reopened into him because of some more allegations that came out against him.
00:10:35.000 I'd need to review the exact story, but he helped give more credence and evidence or give more reason to investigate further into the email scandal.
00:10:43.000 Didn't do her any favors.
00:10:46.000 No.
00:10:47.000 But I mean, so anyways, back to the Epstein stuff.
00:10:47.000 No.
00:10:50.000 I don't see how this, the, you know, Bill and Hillary Clinton are going to make a difference.
00:10:57.000 I certainly am not going to trust anything Bill Space.
00:11:00.000 It's the hot picture.
00:11:01.000 It's not working.
00:11:02.000 No, that's definitely not the hot.
00:11:04.000 John Lauriquette.
00:11:08.000 But if they're, they don't list who the attorneys general and FBI directors are.
00:11:13.000 But that might actually produce something that's worth discussing, you know?
00:11:19.000 Yeah, evidently this Epstein guy had some sex trafficking going on.
00:11:24.000 Apparently, who do you think is the most hilarious photo taken on Epstein Island so far that has been leaked?
00:11:31.000 Well, I mean, the Stephen Hawking, right?
00:11:34.000 I haven't seen the Stephen Hawking.
00:11:35.000 Oh, look it up.
00:11:36.000 Stephen Hawking on Epstein Island is hilarious.
00:11:38.000 That's a good idea.
00:11:39.000 There's like two girls holding daiquiries.
00:11:41.000 Clearly, he's not drinking them.
00:11:42.000 That guy can't swallow.
00:11:43.000 He talks with his friends.
00:11:46.000 It's so funny.
00:11:48.000 Bring me another drink.
00:11:49.000 Yeah, I'm Thursday.
00:11:51.000 You look up hot, Stephen Hawking.
00:11:52.000 I finished with back in the day.
00:11:54.000 Where is it?
00:11:55.000 Where is it?
00:11:55.000 Yeah, there's gotta be a lot.
00:11:56.000 Oh, there it is.
00:11:57.000 There it is.
00:11:57.000 There it is.
00:11:58.000 He's having a time of his life.
00:11:59.000 Over on the top left, top left, right there.
00:12:01.000 Look at that.
00:12:02.000 Yeah, he is having the time.
00:12:03.000 Autopilot.
00:12:04.000 I mean, I don't think he went to the island.
00:12:05.000 I think he was brought.
00:12:07.000 Oh, yeah.
00:12:07.000 I mean.
00:12:09.000 Yeah.
00:12:10.000 Look, here's the thing, though.
00:12:11.000 Back in the day, if you were anybody, you got the invite to hang out with Jeffrey Epstein in this cool little billionaires club with Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Stephen Hawking.
00:12:24.000 Yeah.
00:12:25.000 The FOMO had to be crazy.
00:12:26.000 Kevin Spacey, who got there and was like, there's not even any male waiters.
00:12:32.000 That's why even Spacey's like, I'm going home.
00:12:35.000 He just like, turn this plane around.
00:12:38.000 You know, I hear nothing's sticking to that guy.
00:12:41.000 Yeah, not a thing.
00:12:42.000 Oh, yeah, nothing.
00:12:42.000 I'm nothing.
00:12:43.000 At least none of the cases.
00:12:44.000 No, no.
00:12:45.000 We'll find you some hogs.
00:12:46.000 But I love that he's like, I want the list to come out.
00:12:48.000 It's like, of course.
00:12:51.000 There wasn't all underage girls there.
00:12:53.000 What do you care?
00:12:54.000 It's not a little boy island, Kevin.
00:12:56.000 Nobody thinks you're guilty.
00:13:02.000 If there was like a Disney World list, he'd be in trouble.
00:13:07.000 Yeah.
00:13:08.000 If there was a Hollywood list.
00:13:10.000 Yeah, right.
00:13:11.000 If there was just a Haley Joel Osmond look-alike list.
00:13:15.000 How many young men have you taken to Disneyland after a long day on set?
00:13:21.000 I have no idea if it's true, but there's a story of him and Liam Neeson.
00:13:25.000 And there was like a kid on the set, and he's like, yeah, we can go back up to my room and study lines.
00:13:25.000 Oh, okay.
00:13:30.000 And Kevin Spacey goes to the bathroom and immediately Liam Neeson's like, don't go up to his room.
00:13:38.000 Whatever you do.
00:13:41.000 Don't do it.
00:13:43.000 Oh, yeah.
00:13:44.000 I mean, you know, and you know, you want to like Liam Neeson, don't you?
00:13:47.000 Like, yeah.
00:13:48.000 You're like, man, I hope he's a good guy.
00:13:50.000 I haven't got the rolling taken.
00:13:55.000 He actually, the director overheard him saying, he's like, that's the guy.
00:13:59.000 That's an action.
00:14:00.000 You know, he is in his 50s, but he just saved that kid.
00:14:06.000 I think he could be an action star.
00:14:08.000 I agree.
00:14:09.000 I agree.
00:14:11.000 Yeah.
00:14:12.000 So, you know, I don't think there's a whole lot more to say about the whole Epstein stuff.
00:14:18.000 But I think he's right.
00:14:19.000 I mean, if you were anybody, Chris Tucker, we saw on the plane.
00:14:23.000 Yeah.
00:14:24.000 I mean, yeah, I don't know.
00:14:26.000 I never actually looked into the list, but I mean, I'm aware that there was like a lot of power players.
00:14:32.000 And, you know, if you were anybody, it was thought of like, you want to go be around those people, which is part of the reason why I think that there's a lot of people that don't, a lot of people in positions of power, they don't want the list to come out because back then, no one knew what Epstein was up to or ostensibly, no one knew what Epstein was up to.
00:14:53.000 And they were like, well, you know, I want to go hang out with those people.
00:14:56.000 And if you're in that kind of, you know, I guess if your bank account is that big, those people tend to just hang out with each other and be around each other because that's what that's the thing to do.
00:15:08.000 So there's a lot of people that are just like, oh, I don't want this to come out because it's going to implicate me.
00:15:14.000 And people automatically assume, oh, you were on the list or you were went to the island, so you automatically must have done nefarious things.
00:15:22.000 And while, you know, it's not great to be in his company, especially nowadays, to look back.
00:15:28.000 It's like, it makes sense for people that if they didn't do anything, to be, you know, Dershowitz is another one that's like, yes.
00:15:36.000 Whether or not he actually did.
00:15:38.000 Yeah, excuse me.
00:15:39.000 Sorry.
00:15:40.000 He's like, I'm just the lawyer for the past.
00:15:42.000 Exactly.
00:15:43.000 And that's like, that's Dershowitz's MO.
00:15:46.000 He's like, who's the scummiest guy?
00:15:47.000 I'm going to find him and defend him.
00:15:49.000 And I guess if you do that, you know, people are going to assume things about you.
00:15:53.000 Sure.
00:15:54.000 You get used to it.
00:15:55.000 Well, and he's, it's also, you're going to get flight logs.
00:15:55.000 Yeah.
00:15:57.000 You're not going to get like what they liked.
00:16:00.000 Yeah.
00:16:00.000 You know what I mean?
00:16:01.000 It's not like you're not getting a menu.
00:16:02.000 Yeah.
00:16:04.000 You're not going to get Janet 13 with Bill Clinton broom closet at four.
00:16:04.000 Yeah.
00:16:09.000 It's not like Yelp reviews.
00:16:13.000 Two stars.
00:16:14.000 She didn't even pretend that she liked it.
00:16:20.000 Yeah, there's nothing you're going to get left.
00:16:21.000 Yeah.
00:16:22.000 So it's no matter what comes out, it's always going to be an assumption, right?
00:16:28.000 Apparently not.
00:16:29.000 All right.
00:16:29.000 So, I mean, I don't really have a whole lot else to add to the Epstein story.
00:16:35.000 So why don't we move on to this next story here?
00:16:39.000 New York, I'm sorry, Washington, D.C. apparently is a nightmare.
00:16:43.000 Donald Trump tweeted the other day, I believe this was, I believe this was today.
00:16:48.000 Crime in Washington, D.C. is totally out of control.
00:16:51.000 Local youths and gang members, some only 14, 15, and 16 years old, are randomly attacking, mugging, maiming, and shooting innocent citizens at the same time, knowing that they will be almost immediately released.
00:17:02.000 They're not afraid of law enforcement because they know that nothing ever happens to them, but it's going to happen now.
00:17:08.000 The law in D.C. must be changed to prosecute these minors as adults and lock them up for a long time starting at age 14.
00:17:14.000 The most recent victim was beaten mercilessly by local thugs.
00:17:18.000 Washington, D.C. must be safe, clean, and beautiful for all Americans and, importantly, for the world to see.
00:17:23.000 If D.C. doesn't get its act together and quickly, we will have no choice but to take federal control of the city and run this city how it should be run and put criminals on notice that they're not going to get away with it anymore.
00:17:34.000 Perhaps it should have been done a long time ago.
00:17:36.000 Then this incredible young man and so many others would not have had to go through the horrors of violent crime.
00:17:41.000 If this continues, I'm going to exert my powers and federalize the city, make America great again.
00:17:46.000 And then Elon Musk retweeted Donald Trump's truth.
00:17:50.000 A few days ago, a gang of about a dozen young men tried to assault a woman in her car at night in D.C. A Doge team member saw what was happening, ran to defend her, and was severely beaten to the point of concussion, but saved her life.
00:18:00.000 It's time to federalize D.C. Look, everyone knows that D.C. has been an absolute madhouse when it comes to crime for a long time.
00:18:08.000 You can go to certain areas and you're pretty safe, but that's because those places are where congresspeople are frequenting, where staff are frequenting.
00:18:19.000 But if you go just a couple blocks the wrong direction, you're likely to get beaten or mugged or whatever.
00:18:26.000 I don't know that federalizing is actually the proper role.
00:18:30.000 But if the municipality won't handle it, maybe the federal government should step in.
00:18:39.000 Yeah, you don't want Paul Pelosi to get another headhammer.
00:18:42.000 That happened in San Francisco, but still.
00:18:44.000 Yeah.
00:18:44.000 Well, I mean, he goes into the wrong neighborhoods for different things.
00:18:47.000 He does, usually.
00:18:49.000 But it's not gay sex.
00:18:53.000 What?
00:18:54.000 Too much?
00:18:55.000 No, not at all.
00:18:55.000 No, I mean.
00:18:56.000 I'm making assumptions, of course.
00:18:58.000 Yeah, I don't think the man.
00:18:58.000 Of course.
00:18:59.000 But there's nothing wrong with pontificating.
00:19:01.000 There's no way that I'm simply guessing that man would buy a male escort off of a school bus.
00:19:10.000 Yeah, this sounds horrible.
00:19:12.000 I am from Detroit.
00:19:14.000 Oh, yeah.
00:19:15.000 I can't imagine these kinds of crimes.
00:19:17.000 This is light work.
00:19:18.000 Yeah, in a major city.
00:19:20.000 I don't know if federalizing it's a very good idea, to be honest.
00:19:22.000 I also don't think prosecuting all minors as adults as first-time offenders is a very good idea either, if I'm being honest.
00:19:29.000 I mean, I understand what you're saying, but right now the MO is the young kids are the ones that are sent out to do the crime because the older gangbangers know that they don't get treated like adults.
00:19:39.000 If it's killing, they should extend the sentence, but I don't think that it's something that should just be, I understand like the cusp of 17.
00:19:47.000 A lot of them are doing that, and then they're also bragging in court that they're not going to get in trouble for it.
00:19:52.000 So I think they should extend the sentence, obviously.
00:19:54.000 But I don't, I do not think that giving them no chance at all at the age of 14 is wise either.
00:20:03.000 My personal opinion.
00:20:03.000 Okay.
00:20:04.000 What do you think, a lot?
00:20:05.000 You're fairly, you know, the law is the law kind of dude.
00:20:09.000 So me, Serge, and Tate actually witnessed these YNs firsthand the other weekend in Washington, D.C. And it's actually extremely odd.
00:20:17.000 It's a group of like 20, 30, some odd, very young kids.
00:20:22.000 Like you can tell in their faces, nobody's probably above the age of 17, is as young as maybe even 13 and 14, being followed by like three or four different cop cars, and they're just running around the streets, throwing things and yelling.
00:20:34.000 I guess some groups may be more aggressive than others.
00:20:37.000 Obviously, assaulting somebody is messed up and like you should go to jail as a result of that.
00:20:42.000 But again, I don't know.
00:20:43.000 At the age of 14, it might be a little bit young to be trying to charge people as adults.
00:20:48.000 And I haven't heard as many of the cases of them murdering people, but if you murder somebody, I think you should be charged as an adult for that crime in particular.
00:20:55.000 I don't know what the murder rate is in D.C., but I know there was a time recently in the past 10 or so years where D.C. was the murder capital of the United States.
00:21:05.000 Darn Tooton.
00:21:06.000 Yeah.
00:21:07.000 So, I mean, this is 190.
00:21:10.000 Oh, wow.
00:21:11.000 That's a lot.
00:21:12.000 Well, and the problem with crime in cities like D.C. and New York and Boston as well is the tolerance for crime is far lower because it's like a very walkable city.
00:21:12.000 Yeah.
00:21:20.000 So you're actually interacting with these points where crime will occur a lot more.
00:21:24.000 The part of the crime is lower.
00:21:25.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:21:26.000 So like in like if you live in like Memphis or Detroit, the tolerance for crime is much higher because you can just drive past it on your way to work and back to back to your house.
00:21:34.000 You're not actually interacting with the crime criminal aspect as much.
00:21:37.000 But yeah, if you're somewhere like D.C., you have to walk down the street.
00:21:40.000 You have to take the subway.
00:21:41.000 You have to do this, that, and the other.
00:21:43.000 So your actual sense of crime, even though, because leftists will always be like, well, if you compare it to like Jackson, Mississippi, and it's like, well, yeah, but in Jackson, you don't ever see it.
00:21:51.000 You're just going to Kroger and back, where in D.C., you're walking around, you're going to bars, you're taking the train.
00:21:56.000 So you're going to interact with it a lot more, and it's much more unacceptable for a high amount of crime.
00:22:00.000 I would be remiss if I didn't bring up the fact that the Second Amendment is basically non-existent in Washington, D.C. So restoration of the rights of the American people might be a deterrent to criminals in the district.
00:22:15.000 But I know that the members of Congress and the port staff around them are all or generally not particularly fond of that idea.
00:22:27.000 I think that's where the Ted Nugent rule comes in.
00:22:29.000 Just have The Second Amendment and don't listen to the state.
00:22:32.000 I personally agree with that as well.
00:22:34.000 Yeah, I think you should just be allowed to carry a firearm to protect yourself.
00:22:38.000 I'm not going to say that's what I do.
00:22:40.000 No.
00:22:41.000 Maybe.
00:22:41.000 They took it from me before I got on the plane today.
00:22:44.000 They didn't take my wooden one.
00:22:47.000 And that's, I learned that from John Melcovich in the line of fire.
00:22:50.000 You just make a wooden one.
00:22:52.000 And get into any stadium.
00:22:52.000 Yeah.
00:22:56.000 All right.
00:22:57.000 These are facts.
00:22:58.000 So I feel like for the past, I don't know, 40, 50 years in our country, we have been seeing groups of quote-unquote youth, which is a funny euphemism to use here.
00:23:07.000 I think we all know exactly what we're talking about, but we need to use this stupid young people.
00:23:11.000 We're talking about like black teens.
00:23:12.000 We're talking about black teens running around usually in cities and committing different types of crimes.
00:23:18.000 I think we saw in Cincinnati the other weekend where they were like just random adults assaulted.
00:23:23.000 Maybe they might have yelled at each other, but it resulted in multiple different assaults.
00:23:28.000 And it's interesting when we choose to pay more attention to them.
00:23:32.000 And what we're going to do about that, you know, is up to the government and we'll see.
00:23:35.000 But I feel like these are always happening in the background every so often.
00:23:40.000 And sometimes it's only a local news story.
00:23:42.000 And then sometimes the president decides to truth social about it and make it a national news story.
00:23:46.000 But like these assaults are happening throughout our country all the time.
00:23:49.000 And it's just interesting when we decide to make it national news instead of the factor is.
00:23:55.000 What do you think it is that makes it crime, socioeconomic factors?
00:24:01.000 What is the thing that what is the thing that makes it become a national story?
00:24:07.000 Well, sometimes it's just so shocking you can't deny it.
00:24:10.000 Well, the media.
00:24:10.000 Yeah.
00:24:11.000 That's who it is.
00:24:12.000 That's what decides.
00:24:12.000 Literally only the media.
00:24:14.000 And like if the races were portrayed in the right way for most of the media to decide to pick it up and like put it up the chain of command, then that's what goes.
00:24:22.000 And it's a national news story because the president decided to talk about it now.
00:24:25.000 And it's going to go as far as, you know.
00:24:27.000 For this one, yeah, but when it comes to the one that you mentioned in Cincinnati, that was trying to be subdued.
00:24:31.000 It became a national news story.
00:24:34.000 That was actually, it was a fairly grassroots kind of thing because the media and the municipality was trying to suppress the story.
00:24:43.000 They didn't want it to get out.
00:24:44.000 They didn't want to.
00:24:45.000 Did the white guy, though, knock out the woman?
00:24:47.000 I don't know.
00:24:48.000 I believe a white guy did knock out the woman, but then black people were piling on and kicking the guy at the jazz festival.
00:24:56.000 I think he shoved her, yeah.
00:24:57.000 Yeah, but then black people were also pulling people off of the guy.
00:25:02.000 Like it was a group thing where a lot of people were involved.
00:25:06.000 So depending on what site you were watching, it was white versus black, but then there was the reality of a lot of people were trying to help and a lot of people weren't.
00:25:13.000 Wasn't it allegedly because somebody called another person the end slur?
00:25:17.000 Supposedly, but I don't even know if that's what it was.
00:25:20.000 Yeah, I've heard, I've heard that people, I've heard people make that argument, but I believe if you watch the video, the attack had initiated and then the dreaded end slur was uttered.
00:25:32.000 Not that name-calling should justify violence.
00:25:34.000 Absolutely not.
00:25:35.000 I think that's the most ridiculous argument that people make is, oh, well, you know, they had it coming.
00:25:41.000 Or the idea that, like, oh, well, you know, there are consequences for things you say.
00:25:47.000 I mean, sure, but jail is a consequence for that kind of thing.
00:25:49.000 Yeah.
00:25:50.000 You know, I get told that often.
00:25:51.000 If you're in a heated argument with someone, it's best probably not to use it at a jazz festival.
00:25:56.000 I've always said that.
00:25:57.000 If you're at a Wu-Tang concert, let's say, and someone's angry at you, perhaps you don't yell that at them.
00:26:03.000 Yeah, there will be a concert.
00:26:05.000 Yeah, I'm not saying that you can argue that it's right or wrong and that someone's not allowed, but you will get your ass kicked for lack of a better term.
00:26:13.000 And I'm not saying that what happened to her was horrible.
00:26:16.000 What happened to that guy was horrible, but to just go, okay, it was entire, they want that to be the division.
00:26:21.000 That's my problem with it all.
00:26:22.000 They want them to go, okay, it was black versus white.
00:26:25.000 That's not the case.
00:26:26.000 It was different people going at each other and other people were helping other people.
00:26:31.000 Well, you recognize that this story likely only got so much gasoline into it because of the racial projection onto the story.
00:26:38.000 Yeah.
00:26:38.000 Absolutely.
00:26:39.000 But also, like, with, I mean, with this DC story specifically, it's like, I hate to be that guy, but if the roles were reversed, if there was a mob of 50 white teens and they beat up a black guy, I mean, we'd be in camps right now.
00:26:49.000 Like, it would be over.
00:26:50.000 It just doesn't happen.
00:26:51.000 Exactly.
00:26:56.000 Also, this was, did we mention it's because it happened to an alleged Doge employee?
00:27:00.000 And I don't know if it's a big ball.
00:27:01.000 Big Balls.
00:27:02.000 Big Balls.
00:27:02.000 Tate.
00:27:03.000 Is that him?
00:27:04.000 Tell me more about this guy, Big Balls.
00:27:05.000 That's people alleged to be.
00:27:07.000 I don't think we're going to share the picture because we don't have confirmation of who it is.
00:27:10.000 Oh, I got you.
00:27:11.000 But it's from the rapid response.
00:27:13.000 Well, I mean, there's other people.
00:27:15.000 Allegedly, it's Big Balls.
00:27:16.000 Yeah.
00:27:16.000 There's a big player.
00:27:18.000 If you want to look, if you want to, I mean, just go to X and look for the story, and there's plenty of pictures, and there's comparisons of who Big Ball, you know, what Big Balls looked like when he was, you know, be careful going on X and typing in Big Balls, but I'm pretty sure you'll find that.
00:27:32.000 Just go to Google and type in Big Balls.
00:27:34.000 Yeah.
00:27:35.000 Or Lemon Party.
00:27:36.000 Yeah, don't do that.
00:27:37.000 Go to X Hamster.
00:27:37.000 Don't do that.
00:27:41.000 Bloodied Big Balls.
00:27:42.000 Bloodies.
00:27:43.000 He's bloody.
00:27:44.000 Yeah, he's hurt.
00:27:45.000 Black teens rough up big balls.
00:27:47.000 Black and blue big balls.
00:27:50.000 Black teens rough up big balls.
00:27:53.000 You shouldn't Google any of these things.
00:27:55.000 No, do it on your work computer.
00:27:57.000 Yeah, for sure.
00:27:58.000 Just put black big balls on your work.
00:28:02.000 Angry, violent black people attack big balls.
00:28:05.000 Do it during a prison library tomorrow.
00:28:11.000 Full volume.
00:28:12.000 Perfect.
00:28:13.000 This sounds great.
00:28:15.000 This will do wonderful things.
00:28:18.000 Love the news.
00:28:19.000 All right.
00:28:19.000 So I'm not even sure how we got to this.
00:28:23.000 We were talking about the attack.
00:28:27.000 The truth.
00:28:28.000 So we need to talk about...
00:28:36.000 Texas AG Ken Paxton to ask judge to vacate seats of Dem lawmakers who fled state over redistricting vote.
00:28:44.000 Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton will seek judicial orders to remove Texas state legislators who have fled the state in an attempt to block a congressional redistricting vote taking place in the state legislature.
00:28:56.000 The lawmakers have until August 8th to return to the state and to perform their duties in the legislature before Paxton requests the order.
00:29:03.000 Attorney General Ken Paxton has announced that the continued refusal to perform legislative duties by Texas House Democrats who broke quorum constitutes abandonment of office and that he will pursue a court ruling ensuring that their seats are declared vacant.
00:29:17.000 Speaker of the House, Dustin Burroughs has given members until Friday, August 8th, to return to Texas and present themselves before the House.
00:29:25.000 Any lawmaker who has not been arrested and returned or fails to appear by the Speaker's deadline will be subject to aggressive legal action by Attorney General Paxton.
00:29:34.000 A news release from Paxton's office says.
00:29:37.000 So I've learned that apparently this is actually felonious.
00:29:41.000 So these are felony.
00:29:42.000 They could face felony charges for vacating and preventing the continuation of official business.
00:29:52.000 Is that true?
00:29:53.000 I read that there was just a fine.
00:29:54.000 I was a felony instead of a fine.
00:29:56.000 So they could end up in jail with some teens.
00:29:58.000 Hopefully not.
00:30:00.000 I don't suspect that's what's going to happen, but I think the crux of the issue here is whether or not gerrymandering is kosher.
00:30:07.000 Gerrymandering?
00:30:07.000 Dave?
00:30:08.000 Cool or not?
00:30:09.000 It's the norm since the fourth president of the United States.
00:30:16.000 I'm going to say that they should have to come back and face it.
00:30:20.000 I mean, they should have to come back and actually do their job.
00:30:20.000 Yeah.
00:30:23.000 I agree.
00:30:24.000 The question as to whether or not gerrymandering is acceptable, this is just the state of affairs today, and it's been that way since James Madison.
00:30:32.000 His vice president was Vice President Gerry, and the name gerrymandering comes from that.
00:30:38.000 So whether or not it's okay, I think that's kind of— It doesn't even matter.
00:30:44.000 No, it does matter, and I'll tell you why.
00:30:45.000 It's because not all of the states are fully gerrymandered, and Democrats have actually put different guardrails in place to not allow them to gerrymander certain states.
00:30:53.000 Tate, I know you're from New York, but you might not know much about the politics there.
00:30:56.000 But in New York, right, the Democrats did want to gerrymander, but their maps got tossed out by the courts there because they had certain laws that didn't allow them to gerrymander to the nth degree.
00:31:07.000 Eventually, gerrymandering is bad for our country.
00:31:10.000 The big brain solution here is obviously having somebody non-biased and impartial on top kind of ruling top-down, trying to make as many fair districts and rub the least amount of people the wrong way.
00:31:23.000 But I don't know if we just see this.
00:31:25.000 Both sides are just going to try to gerrymander their districts more and more aggressively.
00:31:28.000 Both sides are obviously guilty of this.
00:31:31.000 So I don't know really where that's going to leave us.
00:31:33.000 The Democrats here are just trying their best to prevent it.
00:31:37.000 This is a band-aid solution for them.
00:31:39.000 These Texas Democrats aren't going to be able to achieve actually preventing the Republicans from gerrymandering Texas.
00:31:45.000 It's only a matter of time.
00:31:46.000 Even with these commissions like you're talking about, like in California, they can just special election around it if they really want to.
00:31:46.000 Right.
00:31:52.000 So it's like, okay, it's nice that it's put into place, but if push really came to shove, New York, California, they'll just circumvent it.
00:32:00.000 And honestly, if you were to say, okay, gerrymandering is illegal, what's the solution?
00:32:06.000 How do you break up the districts then?
00:32:09.000 There are different people with different theories on how to do this without having squiggly lines that go in circles.
00:32:14.000 Like, I don't think that's the problem.
00:32:16.000 I think it's the political will to do so, which neither side is going to see.
00:32:20.000 And like, it's escalating, right?
00:32:22.000 One side's doing it, then the other side's going to want to do it more, and then they're going to both point fingers at one another.
00:32:26.000 Well, part of the reason that the Democrats are having such a problem with this is because the Democrats have kind of like squeezed all the juice, right?
00:32:31.000 Like there's not a whole lot more they can do.
00:32:33.000 There's juice in New York.
00:32:34.000 There are multiple.
00:32:35.000 Yes, there is.
00:32:36.000 How many?
00:32:36.000 How many?
00:32:37.000 Many juice.
00:32:37.000 A ton.
00:32:38.000 How many?
00:32:39.000 Second largest juice population.
00:32:41.000 We're not talking about Jews.
00:32:42.000 We're talking about juice.
00:32:43.000 Outside of Israel.
00:32:43.000 Oh.
00:32:44.000 We're talking about they've gotten all of the, made all of the jurymandering they can do.
00:32:51.000 I thought they squeezed.
00:32:51.000 They're not going to get.
00:32:52.000 There's a lot of Jews there, though.
00:32:54.000 Yeah.
00:32:55.000 And there's nothing wrong with that.
00:32:56.000 Squeezing more.
00:32:57.000 Yeah.
00:32:58.000 I love Jews.
00:32:59.000 So like some state like, you know, Massachusetts.
00:33:01.000 Jewish.
00:33:01.000 No, no, no.
00:33:01.000 There's something like 45, 40% of the state is conservative.
00:33:06.000 And there's zero representatives.
00:33:08.000 There's zero representation for the conservatives.
00:33:11.000 And that's the same situation in Illinois.
00:33:14.000 There's like, you know, 40% of the state is Republican.
00:33:18.000 And there's no representation at all.
00:33:20.000 It's 14 to three.
00:33:21.000 And it's a six point spread in Illinois.
00:33:23.000 But if you have each state that's blue or red taking legal action on each one, wouldn't that just affect the other state to want to do it more?
00:33:29.000 I mean, that's the problem.
00:33:32.000 Well, that was the point that I was making.
00:33:34.000 The reason that the Democrats have a problem is because there's not much more they can do.
00:33:38.000 Right.
00:33:38.000 They don't have the ability to actually jurymander and get more representation out of most states.
00:33:45.000 There's nothing left they can do.
00:33:47.000 They've really maximized the jurymandering that's possible.
00:33:52.000 So the reason that they have such a problem with this is because they don't have the ability to just fight back and say, well, jurymander and et cetera.
00:33:59.000 There's talk of it in New York.
00:34:01.000 There's talk of it in California.
00:34:02.000 But there isn't a lot that's actually possible for them to do.
00:34:07.000 They can do a little bit around the edges, but they're not going to get the same kind of effects that the Republicans could get because the Democrats have been so successful at gerrymandering nationwide.
00:34:17.000 So it's like, sure, there are places where they can get some, but the Republicans actually stand to benefit the most by doing things like redistricting halfway through the time they normally do it because it's normally done after every census.
00:34:34.000 So it's normally done after every 10 years.
00:34:36.000 This is halfway through.
00:34:37.000 There is an argument.
00:34:38.000 We had a guest on last night that was talking about this.
00:34:40.000 There is an argument that it's a good thing to do because of all the demographic changes, because of one, all of the illegal immigrants that have come in, but also because of all the people that have moved from California to other states, to Texas, to Florida and stuff.
00:34:57.000 So Texas is doing it.
00:34:58.000 A big part of the reason is because of the illegal immigration and because of the-In Texas?
00:35:04.000 Yes, it's been known to happen.
00:35:05.000 Really?
00:35:06.000 Shocker, right?
00:35:06.000 I live there.
00:35:07.000 I've not seen it, but go on.
00:35:08.000 Okay.
00:35:09.000 But yeah, so that's the argument that they're making is, you know, this is why it's a legitimate-Sure.
00:35:17.000 No, I get that.
00:35:18.000 And the way they gerrymandered the new seats in Texas was such that all the districts were now roughly a Trump 60-A district where Trump won 60% of the vote.
00:35:29.000 So like some-Congress people would usually disagree with gerrymandering because they don't want their districts fudged with where they run and they don't want to be diluted.
00:35:37.000 But that's how they kind of appeased the Texas Republicans.
00:35:40.000 I suspect Democrats will do something-Call me a genius.
00:35:43.000 I don't know.
00:35:43.000 But I suspect Democrats down the line will try to do something similar to this that Republicans may not like.
00:35:50.000 But this is power politics.
00:35:51.000 And, you know, I think we're seeing more, quote unquote, norms being broken.
00:35:55.000 Trump's a big norm breaker.
00:35:57.000 There are other political power plays that people could do, like packing the Supreme Court.
00:36:01.000 Trump doesn't need to.
00:36:02.000 The Democrats had a few other plays like this.
00:36:05.000 Gerrymandering is another example.
00:36:06.000 But we're going to see more norms being broken.
00:36:10.000 Where that takes us, we'll see.
00:36:12.000 I mean, I agree with you.
00:36:14.000 I think that-Yeah, there's not a lot of room for Dems to go legally.
00:36:19.000 But that's the problem is how hard we want them to push back eventually.
00:36:22.000 I don't know.
00:36:23.000 That's a very good-They're going to say, oh, Trump changed the districts ahead of the census where-And, you know, and that's how he-Well, he's doing this to defend his majority too.
00:36:33.000 He doesn't want to be in the minority for the second half of this presidential term.
00:36:37.000 He would definitely be impeached because of who gives a crap.
00:36:40.000 Right.
00:36:40.000 Something.
00:36:41.000 And then all the investigations he's doing now would get investigated.
00:36:45.000 So, you know, that would be his biggest nightmare.
00:36:47.000 So he's really trying to just guarantee this majority.
00:36:50.000 Trump's been, it seems, insecure about his majority almost the entire time he was president.
00:36:54.000 Especially recently.
00:36:56.000 Yeah, there was Elise Stefanik who he initially wanted to elevate a UN ambassador, but he was like, no, stay in your seat.
00:37:03.000 He wanted Mike Lawler to stay in his seat and not try to run for governor.
00:37:03.000 Yeah.
00:37:06.000 So there's a few examples of this.
00:37:09.000 I think there's a very slim majority.
00:37:10.000 I think it's two or three seats, something like that.
00:37:13.000 So something to keep your eye on because Trump is clearly worried about this as well.
00:37:17.000 I mean, I think that it's legitimate because if the, like you said, if the Democrats take the House, there will be impeachment.
00:37:17.000 Yeah.
00:37:25.000 There will be-Oh, of course.
00:37:27.000 Nothing's going to happen.
00:37:28.000 It'll be just, you know, doing everything they can to stymie any kind of- kind of progress for the american people well and i think that's the benefit not even go back to the Epstein thing, but of doing that stuff, because there has to be something that switches that because that's kind of their ticket into an impeachment.
00:37:44.000 Yeah.
00:37:44.000 Yeah.
00:37:45.000 I mean, look, I'm, I'm, I'm a naked partisan, so like anything that they can do to throw sand into the gears of whatever the Democrats are going to try, I'm for.
00:37:54.000 Sure.
00:37:55.000 Because if they don't, then the Democrats are going to do whatever they can to throw not just, you know, not only impeach Donald Trump, even though I don't imagine that he'll get removed from office because I don't think they'll take the Senate, but they'll try and they would try to take him out of office.
00:38:11.000 And then should they get the presidency again?
00:38:14.000 I imagine all of the bureaucracies will get filled up with Democrat sycophants again, and they'll come after people in the you know, in the right-wing podcast sphere.
00:38:26.000 They'll go after people like Joe Rogan.
00:38:27.000 They'll go after people like Tim Poole.
00:38:29.000 They'll go after people that have Benny Johnson and anyone that they consider a political enemy, they will absolutely target and go after because that was the plan when Kamala Harris, if Kamala Harris would have won.
00:38:39.000 Well, just like before, it's why they're saying that Stephen Colbert is the enemy, or like supposedly people are the enemy of him when that's really not the truth.
00:38:46.000 No, Stephen Colbert is, you know, his viewership is why he lost his job.
00:38:52.000 And his viewership was a result of, I think, CBS pushing him to do something.
00:38:57.000 I mean, it is his own.
00:38:58.000 I mean, you have to, you know, blame somebody for what it is, but CBS, I do also blame because they're the ones that pushed all that crap on him.
00:39:06.000 And then they're the ones that are going, like, oh, your numbers are down.
00:39:09.000 It's like, well, you kind of forced it.
00:39:10.000 Yeah.
00:39:10.000 Your whole company did this, but they all did that woke stuff.
00:39:14.000 Yeah, I don't think you're wrong.
00:39:15.000 But again, just like you said at the end, it was not just Colbert.
00:39:18.000 It was all of them.
00:39:19.000 And also.
00:39:20.000 Disney blaming the Snow White girl for being Latina.
00:39:22.000 Like, why are you Latina?
00:39:24.000 Because you did it.
00:39:25.000 Yeah.
00:39:25.000 It's you guys that did it, not her.
00:39:28.000 The only thing that I would add to that is they did it at a time when people were moving away from cable TV anyways.
00:39:34.000 Right.
00:39:35.000 So it just sped up what was already happening.
00:39:38.000 Oh, sure.
00:39:39.000 All right.
00:39:40.000 So let's jump to this story.
00:39:42.000 This is breaking news from, I guess, from Fox News, from the Ingram angle.
00:39:49.000 We'll go ahead and we'll play the book.
00:39:50.000 Is his primary resident?
00:39:53.000 Easy there.
00:39:54.000 Ready to go?
00:39:55.000 And an Ingram Angle exclusive, a Trump administration source telling the Angle that a criminal investigation of Adam Schiff is underway, conducted by U.S. Attorney's Office in Maryland for possible charges involving mortgage fraud.
00:39:55.000 Yeah.
00:39:55.000 Okay.
00:40:10.000 Now, this follows the story we broke last month when the Federal Housing Finance Agency sent a criminal referral to the DOJ alleging that Schiff, in multiple instances, falsified bank documents and property records to acquire more favorable loan terms.
00:40:25.000 And a 2011 affidavit signed by the then California congressman, he certified that a property in Montgomery County, Maryland is his primary residence.
00:40:34.000 He also owns a condo in Burbank, California, which he's also claimed is his primary residence.
00:40:39.000 He always looks like he's swallowing at a glory hole, doesn't he?
00:40:44.000 Like he just finished it.
00:40:45.000 Just about every member of Congress has a resident.
00:40:47.000 And an Ingram Angle.
00:40:49.000 So this is essentially the same thing that they accused Donald Trump of, right?
00:40:54.000 Yes.
00:40:55.000 They said that he committed mortgage fraud, which even though in Donald Trump's case, like the banks were like, nah, this is good.
00:40:55.000 Yeah.
00:41:03.000 Like we made money.
00:41:05.000 This was fine.
00:41:07.000 But the no, actually, no, this is different because Donald Trump was accused of lying about the value of the apartment.
00:41:18.000 Mar-Largo.
00:41:18.000 Mar-a-Rago?
00:41:19.000 He was an apartment in New York as well.
00:41:21.000 Am I wrong about that?
00:41:22.000 I don't know.
00:41:23.000 So I don't know.
00:41:24.000 I'd have to look into that.
00:41:25.000 But this is the same thing that Letitia James has done.
00:41:30.000 She has she claimed that she was a resident of one place and for tax reasons or whatever.
00:41:37.000 Now, Schiff was claiming that he was a resident of California while he was spending all of his time in Maryland.
00:41:46.000 And now his argument is: well, you know, I work in D.C., so I have to do this.
00:41:52.000 But if you work in D.C., I'm not sure the mortgage, how it makes mortgage fraud.
00:42:01.000 Well, if he so he works in D.C. and lives somewhere else.
00:42:05.000 You have to live in California to be a to be a senator from California.
00:42:09.000 You actually have to reside there.
00:42:10.000 So you have to spend, you know, X amount of time there.
00:42:13.000 Well, that's it up into Letitia James because she had a house in Virginia and she made it her primary residence, but she's AG of New York.
00:42:19.000 It's kind of a problem.
00:42:20.000 Yeah.
00:42:21.000 And so you have to have your primary residence.
00:42:24.000 I mean, his primary residence has to be in California.
00:42:27.000 Right.
00:42:28.000 Because of, because he.
00:42:29.000 But you could have an office write-off in D.C. Yes, but I'm not sure.
00:42:36.000 I'm not sure the exact details of this particular issue.
00:42:40.000 Look, I'm no Schiff fan, but doesn't this seem like a little bit flimsy?
00:42:44.000 Like, can we get the real goods on this guy, like for participation in the Russian collusion hoax for years?
00:42:49.000 But no, we get him on what?
00:42:50.000 Mortgage fraud.
00:42:51.000 I just suspect this isn't going anywhere.
00:42:53.000 I feel like we're, yeah, and this just feels like some red meat.
00:42:58.000 Like, this isn't going anywhere.
00:43:00.000 Mortgage fraud, really?
00:43:01.000 Give me the juice.
00:43:02.000 Give me something meaty.
00:43:03.000 But no, we're getting, oh, some mortgage fraud.
00:43:03.000 Give me.
00:43:06.000 What do you think the concept, even if they convict him, which I doubt they will, what are the real consequences of this going to be?
00:43:11.000 Nothing.
00:43:12.000 I think this was just a juicy story to be leaked to Laura Ingram from somebody in the administration doing somebody favors.
00:43:18.000 And it almost seems like they're trying too hard to go after him and they don't have the goods.
00:43:23.000 Go after him and get the goods.
00:43:25.000 But no, you're coming to me with mortgage fraud.
00:43:27.000 What about his part?
00:43:28.000 All the Russian, Russia hoax BS that he was spewing for years that helped contribute to the Steele dossier that eventually helped wrap Trump up in this crazy media narrative.
00:43:39.000 But no, mortgage fraud.
00:43:41.000 So it's like, I'm not a lawyer.
00:43:44.000 I'm not a judge.
00:43:46.000 I've worked in law, but I don't suspect this is going to go very far.
00:43:50.000 So the argument.
00:43:52.000 From Fox News, Senator Adam Schiff is under criminal investigation for mortgage fraud, a Trump administration source told Fox News.
00:44:00.000 Fox News host Laura Ingram broke the news on Tuesday night on the Ingram angle, saying that the source said a criminal investigation is being conducted by the U.S. Attorney's Office in Maryland on possible charges involving mortgage fraud.
00:44:10.000 The investigation comes a month after a story broke about the Federal Housing Finance Agency sending a criminal referral to the Department of Justice alleging that Schiff, in multiple instances, falsified bank documents and property records to acquire more favorable loan terms.
00:44:26.000 In a 2011 affidavit, the affidavit signed by then California Congressman Schiff certified that a property in Montgomery, California, Maryland is his primary residence.
00:44:37.000 Schiff also owns a condominium in Burbank, California, which he has also claimed as his primary residence as recently as 2023 during his campaign for Senate.
00:44:47.000 Schiff's office did not immediately respond to Vox News digital requests for comment.
00:44:51.000 And also a bar in the meat packing district called the Blue Oyster.
00:44:57.000 Every Saturday he does his job as a urinal.
00:45:01.000 I think as far as mortgage.
00:45:03.000 How many people know what the Blue Oyster bar is?
00:45:05.000 Police Academy.
00:45:06.000 Police Academy.
00:45:08.000 I think as far as mortgages go and the wonderful job that they've always done with the housing at three times what it's worth and the 12% interest rates, does it matter?
00:45:17.000 I mean, is this really what the American people should be concerned about when you look at the way that we've been screwed so many times?
00:45:23.000 I mean, look, I'm a naked partisan.
00:45:25.000 Anything we put this guy in anything to give him problems, I'm down with.
00:45:29.000 I am too.
00:45:30.000 I get giving him problems about this.
00:45:31.000 The problem is, it's just what Zillow does, it would seem at this point.
00:45:35.000 It's not like, I think you have to get something that sticks, and I just don't see this as something that sticks because it's a write-off that you could then go at any conservative for, I believe.
00:45:45.000 Well, if he's if he's claiming, it depends.
00:45:46.000 If he's claiming that he, if he's claimed that it was his primary residence in Maryland, then he's not eligible to be a senator from California.
00:45:56.000 I get that.
00:45:57.000 I'm sorry to say, yeah.
00:45:59.000 I mean, I don't know.
00:46:02.000 It's possible that there are other people that have done this.
00:46:04.000 Sure.
00:46:05.000 But unless there's evidence of other people doing this, I personally am not worried about, oh, what could happen to other people.
00:46:14.000 Again, he's made claims that his primary residence is in Maryland.
00:46:20.000 He's ineligible to be in Congress or in the Senate as a representative of California.
00:46:28.000 So possibly they strip him of his position.
00:46:32.000 Yeah, but I actually don't foresee that happening.
00:46:35.000 There's zero chance of that actually happening.
00:46:37.000 You don't foresee anything happening, though.
00:46:39.000 You're nothing.
00:46:40.000 No, Phil, straight up.
00:46:41.000 They're not going to take him out of the Senate because of this.
00:46:44.000 And it's a pipe dream.
00:46:45.000 And I think it's like it's just a straight-up distraction to say otherwise.
00:46:48.000 Like, nothing's going to happen to Peter because of this.
00:46:50.000 He might even become more popular among Democrats because it looks like it's a partisan attack against him.
00:46:56.000 I mean, anything anything is going to be considered a partisan attack, though.
00:47:01.000 anything.
00:47:01.000 If they had the goods, When it comes to partisans, which I am, like, partisans are going to say, nope, whatever he did is fine because he's on our team.
00:47:13.000 That's just the way that politics works now.
00:47:15.000 I agree with that, but I do also agree that this is kind of a nothing burger mortgage problem.
00:47:19.000 You're not going to depose anyone from a Senate seat over this.
00:47:22.000 You need something meaty.
00:47:23.000 I would love to see it.
00:47:24.000 It'd be great.
00:47:25.000 You can catch him with something meaty.
00:47:27.000 I mean, like, think what George Santos got tried with.
00:47:29.000 Sorry, but that's, but that's not meaty.
00:47:31.000 Yeah, yeah.
00:47:32.000 Well, no, Santos isn't in.
00:47:33.000 Santos is in jail right now.
00:47:35.000 Now, but he was in office for a while.
00:47:38.000 The Republicans themselves kicked him out.
00:47:40.000 Yeah, and it took a while.
00:47:41.000 And now a couple of them are asking them to Trump to pardon him.
00:47:44.000 Well, just going to tell you, I think they're just MTG.
00:47:47.000 I think they should pardon him.
00:47:49.000 Are we free George guys?
00:47:50.000 I'm a free George.
00:47:51.000 I don't know.
00:47:52.000 They should have never been taken him out of office.
00:47:58.000 What happened?
00:48:00.000 That's not happening.
00:48:01.000 Oh, you bet it is.
00:48:04.000 Oh, no.
00:48:05.000 A little cream pie from the Nation of Muslims.
00:48:09.000 Nice.
00:48:10.000 Sorry, the Islam.
00:48:12.000 Oh, no.
00:48:12.000 Islam.
00:48:13.000 He's not.
00:48:14.000 He's too glam to go in jail.
00:48:15.000 No, no, no.
00:48:16.000 That's why.
00:48:17.000 The fact that he's not is why they don't mind.
00:48:20.000 And again, they don't eat pork.
00:48:23.000 Sorry.
00:48:28.000 Oh, man.
00:48:29.000 I just can't with these people.
00:48:30.000 I mean, I don't blame you at all.
00:48:32.000 Adam Schiff is a very limber fella here.
00:48:37.000 I mean, maybe.
00:48:39.000 Yeah.
00:48:39.000 Look at him.
00:48:40.000 I do like how he effectively bullied, like, when the Kamala ran for president, they put a black woman, like a lesbian black woman, in that Senate seat, and then Schiff just like bullied her out of that game.
00:48:53.000 He was already running.
00:48:53.000 Oh, yeah.
00:48:54.000 He's like, sorry.
00:48:55.000 You just check all the boxes.
00:48:56.000 He's like the grown Campbell soup kid.
00:49:00.000 The goofiest looking person.
00:49:03.000 I kind of like him there because he's so non-threatening.
00:49:07.000 Like, there's no way anyone takes him seriously.
00:49:10.000 Well, I mean, I agree with, I agree with your estimation of him as a person, but he does get the vote.
00:49:16.000 And he's always going to vote.
00:49:18.000 It's crazy.
00:49:18.000 He's going to vote with the Democrats.
00:49:20.000 He's a power player, I think.
00:49:22.000 He worked his way up through the House to the Senate right now.
00:49:24.000 And it was all because of the...
00:49:32.000 Democrats in California would argue, like, yeah, he took down Trump, man.
00:49:36.000 This shift guy with the Russia spin.
00:49:38.000 So that's what they'd give him credit for.
00:49:39.000 And, you know, so I don't think he's going to get it kicked out of the Senate for this.
00:49:46.000 I don't think Democrats are going to give a crap either.
00:49:48.000 I don't think that there's a high chance of it, but I do think that it's good that they're going to put the screws to him.
00:49:55.000 There's nothing wrong with doing that.
00:49:57.000 Yeah, I mean, I'd love to get these guys for parking tickets every day.
00:50:00.000 Yeah.
00:50:00.000 Like, so, I mean, again, if you're like, oh, we're not going to get results, so they shouldn't, they shouldn't, you know, they shouldn't put the screws to him.
00:50:08.000 Send your best meter-made at that man.
00:50:13.000 You're not wrong at all.
00:50:14.000 Like, that's the thing, is you're both accurate in this.
00:50:14.000 Yeah.
00:50:17.000 It's just, yeah, I just think it won't stick.
00:50:20.000 No, I tend to agree with that.
00:50:23.000 They're not going to be able to make anything stick, I don't think.
00:50:26.000 But I do think that they should do everything they can to make his life difficult because he did that to Republicans for, you know, for however long he's been in or however long he was in the House in Congress, you know, he was doing that and he's going to continue doing that.
00:50:43.000 So make him make him, the process can be the punishment.
00:50:48.000 Yeah.
00:50:48.000 And again, all of the stuff that Delad mentioned about the Russian gate stuff, there's still ongoing investigations for that.
00:50:56.000 So if there's any way they can put the screws to him for that as well, I'm all for it.
00:51:03.000 So like I said, I'm a naked partisan.
00:51:05.000 So anything they can do to make his life more difficult, I'm going to be supportive.
00:51:12.000 So we're going to move on to, let's see, to this story.
00:51:15.000 What is it?
00:51:15.000 The Jim Acosta interviews an AI version of a teenager killed in the Parkland shooting.
00:51:22.000 This was so just a beautiful thing.
00:51:24.000 It's actually disgusting.
00:51:26.000 Was this a real kid that was a fake kid?
00:51:29.000 Real fake kid?
00:51:30.000 Yeah.
00:51:31.000 Is he crazy?
00:51:31.000 Yeah.
00:51:32.000 Nice dad.
00:51:33.000 Oh, really fake kid that they reanimated to life with like low-quality AI.
00:51:38.000 This is why I hate AI.
00:51:40.000 I'm always telling people this technology is the worst.
00:51:42.000 Yeah, total garbage.
00:51:42.000 I hate it, too.
00:51:43.000 And now what are we doing it for?
00:51:45.000 It's like, yeah, guys, we're living in the future.
00:51:46.000 Now we could have videos of dead people having their mouths move and have them regurgitate my political beliefs back to me.
00:51:53.000 Right.
00:51:53.000 It's like he's interviewing himself.
00:51:55.000 Right.
00:51:55.000 Do you know?
00:51:56.000 Do you know if the kid felt this way?
00:51:57.000 No, no, no.
00:51:58.000 He's been dead a long time.
00:51:59.000 Well, he was killed by gun violence, so he asked to be a good person.
00:52:02.000 Let's get into it.
00:52:03.000 Let's get into it.
00:52:04.000 That's what I have to agree with me.
00:52:05.000 Hold on.
00:52:06.000 Let's get into this here.
00:52:08.000 Variety reports.
00:52:09.000 Jim Acosta, the former CNN chief White House correspondent, who now hosts an independent show on YouTube, has published an interview with an AI-generated avatar of Joaquin Oliver, who died at age 17 in the Parkland school shooting in 2018.
00:52:22.000 The interactive AI was created by Oliver's parents who granted Acosta the first interview with the recreated version Of their son on what would have been his 25th birthday.
00:52:33.000 Oliver was one of the 17 people killed in the mass shooting at Marjorie Stoneham Douglas High School.
00:52:40.000 Acosta asked Oliver about his solution for gun violence, to which the avatar responded, I believe in a mix of stronger gun control laws, mental health support, and community engagement.
00:52:50.000 We need to create a safe space for conversations and connections, making sure everyone feels seen and heard.
00:52:56.000 It's about building a culture of kindness and understanding.
00:52:59.000 It is incredibly creepy.
00:53:01.000 Do we have the actual video of them?
00:53:03.000 I hope not.
00:53:04.000 Yeah.
00:53:04.000 I mean, it was on Twitter.
00:53:06.000 We should show it.
00:53:07.000 It was.
00:53:08.000 It's like low quality.
00:53:09.000 Let's see.
00:53:12.000 Oh, this is actually Acosta.
00:53:14.000 You're going to have to click through.
00:53:15.000 Yeah.
00:53:16.000 All right.
00:53:16.000 Welcome to the Jim Acosta.
00:53:18.000 It's right in the beginning here.
00:53:19.000 But it is another day of knowing for several years now.
00:53:22.000 I consider him to be a good friend.
00:53:24.000 So, of course, I took him up on the October so we can create a safer future for everyone.
00:53:28.000 What would you like to know more about?
00:53:30.000 Joaquin, I would like to know.
00:53:32.000 Right, if you want to share anything or have questions, I'm all ears.
00:53:35.000 Just let me know.
00:53:36.000 Joaquin, it's Jim Acosta.
00:53:38.000 I was wondering if you could tell me what happened to you.
00:53:41.000 I appreciate your curiosity.
00:53:47.000 It's important to talk about these issues so we can create a safer future for everyone.
00:53:50.000 What would you like to know more about?
00:53:52.000 Joaquin.
00:53:53.000 Like, that's literally like, would you like to know more from Starship Troopers?
00:53:57.000 Stephen Hawking.
00:53:57.000 Dude, it was better when Brando landed in the original Superman.
00:54:02.000 I would like to know what your solution would be for gun violence.
00:54:08.000 Great question.
00:54:09.000 I believe in a mixed gun control laws, mental health support, and community engagement.
00:54:14.000 We need to create safe spaces for conversations and connections, making sure everyone feels seen and heard.
00:54:20.000 It's about so morbid and gross.
00:54:22.000 It really is.
00:54:24.000 I think that's a great idea, Joaquin.
00:54:26.000 We definitely need more of that.
00:54:28.000 I'm so glad you think so.
00:54:29.000 Is he also AI or is that his personality?
00:54:32.000 That's just Jim Acosta.
00:54:33.000 We can't create a bad person.
00:54:34.000 17-year-olds is not this well spoken.
00:54:37.000 It's sad to do this.
00:54:38.000 I would like to know more about you.
00:54:40.000 Just the prompts are so creepy.
00:54:41.000 And now he goes on to talk about sports.
00:54:44.000 I'm all about love, laughter, and living life to the fullest.
00:54:47.000 I cherish my family and friends and always try to get away from it.
00:54:50.000 Yo, quit yelling at me.
00:54:52.000 AI version one.
00:54:54.000 Exactly.
00:54:56.000 I just imagine.
00:54:56.000 I can't imagine.
00:54:57.000 I would need to.
00:54:58.000 And it goes on like this.
00:54:59.000 Father, I would never.
00:55:00.000 I'm sorry.
00:55:01.000 Oh, yeah.
00:55:01.000 That's so sad.
00:55:02.000 It's disgusting.
00:55:04.000 I lost plenty of my friends when they were teens, and I just can't imagine doing this.
00:55:08.000 I'm sorry.
00:55:10.000 It's gross.
00:55:11.000 But it goes on where he's asking about sports, and he's talking about things that he likes.
00:55:19.000 The kid died in 20, what is it, 2017?
00:55:19.000 Really?
00:55:24.000 It looks like Rosie O'Donnell.
00:55:26.000 It's so incredibly gross.
00:55:28.000 Acosta.
00:55:29.000 Acosta, not that.
00:55:32.000 And you're right.
00:55:33.000 If you look at Acosta, you can see his roots are showing too.
00:55:36.000 He's got a little gray going on there.
00:55:37.000 And I will say, I don't blame the parents as much.
00:55:41.000 The parents are obviously going through it and they're thinking, what could I have done differently possibly to have saved my child?
00:55:47.000 And I'm not a father.
00:55:49.000 I hope one day to be.
00:55:50.000 And I'm sure if I ever lost my child, I'd be constantly reliving that and thinking what I could have done differently to change that.
00:55:56.000 But Jim Acosta, what a piece of absolute fucking garbage.
00:55:59.000 And he's really just manipulating the parents and using them to try to advance his specific politics.
00:56:06.000 And it's so gross because, you know, the right could do this too, but they choose not to.
00:56:10.000 They could, you know, have some parents who say, oh, maybe they could have used some more security guards there or had more police there or had police who actually decided to go in to the school because at the Parkland school shooting, they didn't have the police actually go inside when the shooting was happening.
00:56:24.000 So just so nakedly gross to use literally dead children to try to advance your political agenda.
00:56:30.000 Digital taxidermy.
00:56:31.000 It's the horrifying thing.
00:56:32.000 Well, the two went in for Uvalde, but they were complete pussies.
00:56:36.000 Yeah.
00:56:36.000 Yeah.
00:56:37.000 So I mean, Uvalde was very sad.
00:56:40.000 Special discussion.
00:56:40.000 Very sad.
00:56:41.000 Yeah.
00:56:42.000 Especially when you saw like the body cam from like Nashville where they just ran right in right away.
00:56:46.000 They ended their job.
00:56:46.000 Yeah.
00:56:48.000 Yeah.
00:56:48.000 So same as the guy who borrowed the gun from the barber shop or what was it?
00:56:52.000 Yeah, Nuvaldi.
00:56:53.000 It was military.
00:56:54.000 Yeah.
00:56:56.000 So the overall reaction is actually non-partisan.
00:57:02.000 Most of the time, you expect people to kind of, you know, pick their side and, okay, I'll defend Acosta because I'm politically aligned with him.
00:57:12.000 But even over on Blue Sky, the response was absolutely excoriating him.
00:57:19.000 You know, hey, Jim, quick question.
00:57:22.000 What the F is wrong with you?
00:57:24.000 What I want to know is what the F is wrong with the parents.
00:57:27.000 Grief makes you do crazy things.
00:57:28.000 Acosta has no excuse, though.
00:57:31.000 And it goes on.
00:57:32.000 That's not him.
00:57:33.000 This is not his true self.
00:57:34.000 That's a computer generating answers.
00:57:36.000 Jim, you ever think about turning into MDF?
00:57:39.000 Might be more useful career pivot.
00:57:42.000 Usually, I usually don't comment on stuff like this, but this is beyond effed up and gross.
00:57:47.000 You're a monster.
00:57:51.000 This isn't an interview.
00:57:52.000 This is the AI version of Weekend at Bernie's.
00:57:55.000 And they did a better job animating a dead guy.
00:57:58.000 And this is Blue Sky, right?
00:58:00.000 If the Blue Sky turns on a lip tard, it's over.
00:58:00.000 This is not.
00:58:02.000 Exactly.
00:58:03.000 This is not X. I mean, X, you expect Jim Acosta to get excoriated, but it goes on and on and on.
00:58:08.000 Thanks.
00:58:09.000 I hate it.
00:58:09.000 This is disgusting.
00:58:10.000 There's no reason at all to do this.
00:58:12.000 This is journalistic malpractice.
00:58:15.000 We're also looking at people that consider themselves artists and they don't want AI to begin with.
00:58:20.000 And now you're using it in the most egregious, disgusting way imaginable.
00:58:24.000 It is the most excreted.
00:58:26.000 I think the right and left can come together and go, that's wrong on every level.
00:58:30.000 And like you said, I don't blame the parents.
00:58:30.000 Yeah.
00:58:32.000 Grief is a horrible thing, but that's the worst thing you can do with it.
00:58:36.000 I would say.
00:58:37.000 I think that that's pretty accurate.
00:58:40.000 Especially when you're interviewing yourself and then you're going, but it's a dead kid, too.
00:58:46.000 I mean, I don't think that there's, I don't think anyone actually has had a positive review of this or positive response to this.
00:58:55.000 I don't know how Jim Acosta thought this was a good idea.
00:59:00.000 I mean, he said himself, but he was, you know, here he is advertising.
00:59:04.000 A show you don't want to miss at 4 p.m.
00:59:06.000 I'll be having one of a kind, one-of-a-kind interview with Joaquin Oliver.
00:59:09.000 He died in the Parkland school shooting in 2018, but his parents have created an AI version of their son to deliver a powerful message on gun violence.
00:59:18.000 Then where was the actual powerful message on gun violence?
00:59:21.000 Because that was the most boilerplate, you know, boring.
00:59:26.000 Exactly.
00:59:26.000 It's the most garbage kind of thing that you could possibly imagine.
00:59:29.000 Well, I love the mental health thing, where it's the, it's like we do have a massive mental health problem in this country.
00:59:35.000 We also have a dopamine problem.
00:59:36.000 We're addicted to our phones.
00:59:38.000 We have companies that want us addicted to our phone so people stop feeling anything.
00:59:42.000 And that there's so many things you can get into, but an AI robot is the last thing you want to have tell you that.
00:59:50.000 And also, I love during COVID, you had a bunch of books behind you every time somebody was doing an interview.
00:59:54.000 And in this, it's just his books.
00:59:57.000 I don't know.
00:59:58.000 I just noticed that.
00:59:59.000 Nothing says narcissism.
01:00:00.000 Can't sell any of them.
01:00:01.000 I got to put him back.
01:00:02.000 No, they're like, he's like, I think I just had a lot of returns today.
01:00:05.000 I think, too, if you just ask ChatGPT the questions Acosta asked, you'd get something totally different.
01:00:11.000 So they had to have coded this, like, give me the most run-of-the-mill lib answers.
01:00:16.000 Like, that's what they coded this person to be reanimated as.
01:00:20.000 So this guy was killed horrifically and reanimated literally as a lib.
01:00:24.000 Yeah, I mean, it's an empty shell as a symbol of liberal light.
01:00:28.000 Yeah, I just imagine that's a problem.
01:00:30.000 I can't imagine that they had a data set that could accurately, you know, be used as an AI to reflect what this kid was like.
01:00:39.000 No, and they couldn't have had actually a bunch of data that went together from all the shootings where it was like, well, you know, I think SSRIs are a problem, so you don't want to get a sweet at the Mandalay Bay.
01:00:50.000 He would have just stopped it.
01:00:52.000 So it's not like there's a bunch of stuff they were covering to have an actual answer.
01:00:56.000 Like you said, it's just a boilerplate run of the mill.
01:01:00.000 It's irresponsible.
01:01:01.000 Yeah.
01:01:02.000 I do think that it is irresponsible.
01:01:05.000 And I think he's getting the result that he deserves, the criticism that he deserves.
01:01:11.000 I don't see how he does, yeah.
01:01:12.000 You know what?
01:01:13.000 Maybe, you know, we don't have a lot of answers from the Las Vegas shooting.
01:01:16.000 Maybe we could try to reanimate Steven Paddock.
01:01:20.000 Steven Paddock and have an interview with him.
01:01:23.000 What answers we'd get out of him.
01:01:25.000 Yeah, it'd be funny if he just, it's like, I don't know.
01:01:27.000 I didn't like the hotel.
01:01:30.000 I lost a lot of money.
01:01:31.000 I think, isn't that the current line?
01:01:32.000 Like, I lost a lot of money gambling with my Asian wife who was using me.
01:01:36.000 Wouldn't swap my towels.
01:01:37.000 I honestly think that the FBI wouldn't allow that, personally.
01:01:41.000 I don't think the FBI is going to allow that at all.
01:01:41.000 Probably wouldn't.
01:01:43.000 It would just be, yeah, like, why just, why'd you bring him in, though, at check-in?
01:01:47.000 I don't know.
01:01:48.000 You know, I had a feeling it wouldn't go well.
01:01:51.000 I lose every time.
01:01:54.000 They just keep letting me back in.
01:01:56.000 Someone had to pay for it.
01:01:57.000 You'd be surprised.
01:01:58.000 But you only packed one shirt.
01:02:01.000 You had six suitcases with weapons.
01:02:04.000 He had so many guns up there.
01:02:06.000 Like, even if I was in line, I'd be like, excuse me.
01:02:09.000 It's a lot of gun bags.
01:02:13.000 Those guitars?
01:02:14.000 No, no, no.
01:02:16.000 I have plans.
01:02:20.000 The rate of fire doesn't.
01:02:23.000 I've got the highest floor.
01:02:29.000 I mean, it's very sad, but if I don't make light of it, but it's just, it's absurd.
01:02:34.000 How long ago did it happen?
01:02:35.000 I mean, 2017?
01:02:37.000 A while ago.
01:02:38.000 I don't know.
01:02:38.000 I mean, not that long ago.
01:02:40.000 Yeah, I mean, it's over five years, so I think it's safe to make it.
01:02:43.000 I mean, it was pretty COVID.
01:02:45.000 It was, yeah.
01:02:46.000 Even Parkland, though, was, I think, seven or eight years ago at this point.
01:02:49.000 Parkland was tweeting.
01:02:50.000 Yeah, it was enough to make David Hogg famous, and now people are like, all right, enough.
01:02:56.000 The reason that he became the most famous one, because there was like a whole crew of them.
01:02:59.000 I remember there was like an Emma chick, and then there was the right-wing version with Kyle Kashuv.
01:03:05.000 Kyle Kashov.
01:03:06.000 Kashov.
01:03:07.000 Yeah, he was the one that was like not even there, right?
01:03:11.000 Hogg?
01:03:11.000 Hogg was not there.
01:03:12.000 Yeah, wasn't he like down the street?
01:03:14.000 Hogg was Hogg was at school when it happened.
01:03:18.000 He left and then he went back to do a little dancing on graves.
01:03:23.000 Oh, once the coast was clear.
01:03:24.000 Yeah.
01:03:25.000 He's like, now that it's safe, I'm going to go pretend I was part of this.
01:03:28.000 Yeah, he was in another part of the school.
01:03:30.000 He wasn't actually, he wasn't actually in danger from the actual shooting.
01:03:34.000 He left, went home, and then went back and started giving interviews and was like, hey, here's my chance to be a Democrat Apparatch.
01:03:43.000 Can you imagine what a scumbag would run up to a news camera and just start making it about himself?
01:03:48.000 When he was, look, he was 17.
01:03:50.000 So part of me is like, all right, he's young and dumb.
01:03:54.000 But then he turned that into, you know, Harvard with poor grades and going on to be in the DNC after that and basically failing at everything that he tried to do.
01:04:07.000 So wearing skinny suits.
01:04:09.000 Did wear skinny suits?
01:04:10.000 Because he like threatened her like primary one guy and they're like, get him out.
01:04:14.000 Yeah.
01:04:15.000 I mean, you've got some good ideas.
01:04:17.000 If you listen to James Carwell, he was like, this kid's an idiot.
01:04:20.000 Yeah, that's hilarious.
01:04:21.000 They were primary.
01:04:22.000 He wanted to primary safe Democrat seats because they weren't progressive enough.
01:04:26.000 But it's like, look, man.
01:04:28.000 They're just kicking the can down the road.
01:04:29.000 You're not helping anybody by primary school.
01:04:31.000 He's their future, whether they like it or not.
01:04:33.000 Well, we'll see.
01:04:34.000 I mean, I don't know that he's extreme enough when it comes to the politics.
01:04:38.000 I think they're turning on him.
01:04:40.000 Yeah, I think.
01:04:41.000 Yeah.
01:04:42.000 Huge straight white.
01:04:43.000 Come on.
01:04:44.000 There's no, there's no, he's not in the hierarchy.
01:04:46.000 No, I mean, just coming it up with Zoron.
01:04:48.000 I saw that.
01:04:49.000 Oh, yeah?
01:04:50.000 Was he?
01:04:50.000 Yeah, they're boys.
01:04:51.000 Well, well, I mean, again, I think that Hogg is the most self-serving of the Democrats that I know of.
01:04:58.000 I don't think that any of it is motivated by actual political beliefs other than, well, you know, I'm supposed to be a Democrat or I am a Democrat.
01:05:07.000 That's how I identify.
01:05:08.000 So I'm going to just be a Democrat.
01:05:10.000 I don't think there's anything other than self-serving attempts to.
01:05:15.000 Well, he has the weird combination of being self-serving and having a chip on his shoulder.
01:05:18.000 And that's always a really deadly combo.
01:05:21.000 We called in bomb threats not to go to school.
01:05:25.000 And then Columbine happened and all that jazz rolling.
01:05:28.000 That wasn't that.
01:05:31.000 Yeah, that did put a damper on him.
01:05:34.000 It used to be like, it was funny, though, when we would.
01:05:36.000 We'd be like, this is dogs going to the school and a robot.
01:05:40.000 And you're like, maybe we shouldn't do this anymore.
01:05:42.000 There were no robots back in the 90s.
01:05:44.000 They were like little bomb ones, yeah.
01:05:45.000 Really?
01:05:46.000 Yeah.
01:05:47.000 I thought that that was.
01:05:49.000 I thought that those didn't really become a thing.
01:05:51.000 Yeah, like little remote ones.
01:05:52.000 I mean, I don't know if they did anything.
01:05:54.000 There wasn't a bomb.
01:05:56.000 Somebody who I won't say who did it from a payphone in Detroit or outside a bar anyway.
01:06:03.000 You never can't tell with Detroit, right?
01:06:05.000 The schools were crazy.
01:06:06.000 Yes.
01:06:07.000 Yeah.
01:06:08.000 Yeah, public schools.
01:06:12.000 Yeah, they had these things called metal detectors.
01:06:15.000 And then they had people that work security in a lot of the schools.
01:06:18.000 Really in the late 90s, huh?
01:06:20.000 Yeah, through the 80s and 90s.
01:06:23.000 Even where my son goes to school, there was the opportunity to have a armed off-duty Detroit police officers, retired police officers.
01:06:34.000 And the entire school was like, yeah, good.
01:06:36.000 Yeah, we'll do that.
01:06:37.000 Just taking a quick vote.
01:06:38.000 I mean, I think everybody wants to protect their children no matter what side you're on when it comes down to it.
01:06:43.000 Doesn't private.
01:06:44.000 Doesn't that make sense?
01:06:45.000 I mean, at least particularly nowadays with the advent of school shooting since Columbine.
01:06:51.000 It really has, it's crazy because that one was out of nowhere.
01:06:55.000 Yeah.
01:06:56.000 And then, I mean, there had been a few before, but it was in the 70s.
01:06:59.000 You know, there had been gang violence, but that was a very rare one.
01:07:03.000 And they wanted to blame Manson and goth kids, but it turned out that it was actually two fairly popular kids, one extremely intelligent and one kind of a follower.
01:07:12.000 And after that, I mean, the way that it is now is just alarming.
01:07:16.000 So there is a problem, but we have to identify what it actually is.
01:07:21.000 And what is it?
01:07:23.000 I think that it's the fact that there are very few fathers and kids being raised by single mothers and SSRIs.
01:07:30.000 I think it is a lot in the treatment.
01:07:32.000 I think there is a lot of, yeah, I think there is a lot of that.
01:07:34.000 There's a lot of pressure.
01:07:36.000 There's a lot of, I mean, I think the internet's a huge problem to it because you're not being judged by a group of friends.
01:07:41.000 You're being judged by Earth.
01:07:43.000 The whole world.
01:07:44.000 Yeah.
01:07:45.000 I think there's a lot of problems with Psyche as a result with that.
01:07:48.000 Yeah, I mean, well, the idea that you're on display for the whole world, and if you put up the wrong picture, you can, you know, or the, or something the wrong video, you can have literally 100,000 people mocking you is something that a kid is not prepared for.
01:08:06.000 No, it's something most adults are not prepared for.
01:08:09.000 Most adults really can't.
01:08:10.000 I don't have the data in front of me.
01:08:12.000 I believe school shootings to be going down.
01:08:15.000 I think one of the core issues here is the social contagion aspect of it.
01:08:20.000 So the Columbine stuff really blew up and there was a lot of copycat people as a result of many things, but due in part by them getting the idea from the Columbine shooting.
01:08:28.000 Yeah, it's almost instantly.
01:08:29.000 Like copycat, a ton of copycat killers, which was really messed up.
01:08:33.000 When I was younger, I remember they, I forgot the name of the program.
01:08:36.000 They brought us all into this room, like an auditorium or something, and they all like were really gave us an extremely dramatic telling of the story and how it could have been us.
01:08:43.000 And they tried to get half the kids to cry and everybody was all sobbing about this.
01:08:47.000 And they really got this story out there aggressively.
01:08:49.000 And it might have died down a bit now.
01:08:53.000 But even still, when you're seeing these school shootings, it could encourage others to do these copycat type attacks, especially because humans are so stupid and we're such followers.
01:09:05.000 It was a big problem, like in the 2010s, where they would, like, a school shooting would happen.
01:09:08.000 And then they would have like a scoreboard and it would like show the record shooting.
01:09:11.000 I was like, of course that was going to lead to these like psychos.
01:09:14.000 And also nowadays, what's so what is it actually?
01:09:17.000 It would be like who's killed the most kids and like deadliest since then.
01:09:17.000 Yeah, it was like a thing.
01:09:21.000 Yeah, the columns have gotten to lose on.
01:09:24.000 And what's considered a mass shooting nowadays has been really the waters have been muddied so much because now they're talking about anyone that's shot, like any shooting that happens where there's more than two people that are shot.
01:09:38.000 Right.
01:09:38.000 And when you say a mass shooting, it brings to mind someone going, well, I mean, a lot of people that have lost their lives, and it brings to mind someone that goes with the intent to kill multiple people and starts shooting and continues shooting and killing people until they're stopped.
01:09:54.000 So you think of a large death toll.
01:09:56.000 Nowadays, anything that happens, any event with a gun on a school, they call that a school shooting.
01:10:02.000 So if a gun goes off and someone gets shot, they call it a school shooting, not an accident.
01:10:06.000 It's a school shooting.
01:10:08.000 Anytime there's more than two people that are shot in one event, they call it a mass shooting, which, again, if you're walking down the street and there's a you know, someone decides that they're going to try and rob someone and they shoot the person they're trying to rob and two people get hit in the in the crossfire, they call that a mass shooting.
01:10:29.000 But the contexts are very different.
01:10:31.000 So when you're thinking of a mass shooting and it brings to mind these horrible events where multiple people are shot and killed or someone is mugged and someone shoots them and two other people end up getting hit, those are two very different types of crime and two different types of criminal perform those crimes.
01:10:55.000 Well, it's a scare tactic.
01:10:56.000 Yeah.
01:10:56.000 You know, that's the that's the point.
01:10:58.000 They muddy the water so that way they can they can essentially farm clicks, I imagine.
01:11:03.000 Well, that's the main reason for anything now.
01:11:05.000 And like you guys said when it first happened, I mean, the immediate response, I remember, was lockdown.
01:11:11.000 And they said, if there's a shooter, we're going to pull the fire alarm and we're going to barricade the door and everybody gets under a desk.
01:11:17.000 So essentially you're sitting ducks.
01:11:19.000 And, you know, it's like, well, first of all, what if it's a fire and we don't hear the shots?
01:11:23.000 So now we're just sitting in a classroom under desks.
01:11:27.000 But the way that they responded, they had no idea what to do with it.
01:11:30.000 And now it's like you said, if somebody, a lot of times, someone will bring a gun to school on accident.
01:11:35.000 They will do it to be cool.
01:11:36.000 Something will go off.
01:11:38.000 And now it hits all these stats and it's not necessarily real.
01:11:42.000 So we don't really know how to, they're not all individual.
01:11:45.000 They're all just lumped into one thing to kind of scare every single parent.
01:11:50.000 I think there is such something so horribly fascinating about this social contagion idea and how bad ideas could spread from like one person to another for some of the most horrible things and how talking about these things more can help encourage them in people.
01:12:04.000 So like school shootings aren't the only example.
01:12:06.000 Offing yourself is another example when it's covered more in the news.
01:12:10.000 It's a crazy phenomenon that it increases suicide rates.
01:12:14.000 And another thing is like the trans issue.
01:12:17.000 The more attention that the trans issue is given, the more trans people we see start popping up due to this social contagion theory.
01:12:25.000 So I think it's crazy how impressionable people are.
01:12:28.000 And I think it's something that we need to be like hyper aware of.
01:12:30.000 And then it's an interesting thing in how we in the media should behave knowing those things.
01:12:36.000 You know, should I not cover people offing themselves as much because I know it could help spur other people doing that?
01:12:42.000 Should I not cover school shootings the same way because I know it could lead to others?
01:12:46.000 Should I not name shooters or this or that?
01:12:49.000 So just something to be aware of as people I think were super impressionable.
01:12:52.000 Yeah, I think the idea, okay, you name the shooter because that's what they want.
01:12:56.000 I don't know if that's true, right?
01:12:57.000 That's just something we say.
01:12:58.000 I think going, okay, well, suicides are up against men.
01:13:01.000 Do you be honest and say it's gambling?
01:13:03.000 Do you be honest and say it's these certain things of huge loss to people is what causes it?
01:13:08.000 Or do you kind of keep hiding that too?
01:13:10.000 We kind of just put all that stuff out there.
01:13:12.000 The trans issue, I think, is also proven to be real, where the more and more we talk about and make an issue, the more and more people want to identify it for attention.
01:13:21.000 So it is tough to say what is what, but we do kind of talk about it.
01:13:25.000 Then we put these blanket things over, like we can't talk about the shoot.
01:13:29.000 That's not preventing anything.
01:13:31.000 So, and also we do that thing, like you said, calling certain people teens, then naming certain people on the other side because we can talk about that person.
01:13:39.000 We muddy it all up so we're never getting clear actual statistics of what's going on.
01:13:44.000 People are such hard asses about the naming now.
01:13:46.000 It's like, oh, you support this guy?
01:13:48.000 Is that why you're naming him?
01:13:49.000 You're trying to make him famous or something.
01:13:50.000 It's like, bro, I don't think this is going to change anything at this point.
01:13:53.000 No, and it's not going to satisfy him.
01:13:55.000 He's dead.
01:13:56.000 But it did get out of control for a while where like a shooting would happen and then you get like a full like Netflix documentary on him.
01:14:01.000 Or like Time Front Page.
01:14:03.000 I think it was the Boston Marathon.
01:14:04.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:14:06.000 Where it's like, we're fetishizing these people.
01:14:07.000 That was the Rolling Stone cover.
01:14:09.000 Oh, that's horrible.
01:14:10.000 It's like if you had nothing to lose and you're just like, this is it.
01:14:12.000 It's like, well, you can get a Netflix documentary out of it.
01:14:15.000 Yeah, if you're going to be on the same cover as Kurt Cobain, that's certainly incentive.
01:14:19.000 Yeah.
01:14:20.000 In a messed up way.
01:14:21.000 Yeah.
01:14:24.000 I think that it does make sense to do what you can to minimize the shooter or the people that are carrying out these violent acts.
01:14:32.000 If it makes sense to actually name them or if it makes sense to talk about their background or whatever, then I think that it's acceptable.
01:14:40.000 But the idea that you have to talk about them, add nauseum and talk about their motivation, et cetera.
01:14:47.000 I'm not sure if that's, I'm not sure if that's a good idea or not.
01:14:50.000 Because if they have motivations that if they have some kind of manifesto or whatever, maybe it is good for that to be put out.
01:14:59.000 But at the same time, if it will inspire other people, I'm not sure where the line is.
01:15:06.000 Like the kid who was the son of a Hollywood producer, I believe he produced like Harry Potter movies or something.
01:15:12.000 And then he shot up like a restaurant in Malibu.
01:15:15.000 I think that was an interesting one where you kind of go, okay, well, there's this rich kid who's spoiled and kind of has everything.
01:15:21.000 Why?
01:15:22.000 Why is that life as vapid and empty as another life?
01:15:26.000 And I mean, I mean, you could read like Brad Easton House's Less Than Zero and see why.
01:15:30.000 But if you're not really aware of that, it's like, why do these things where people have so much and people have so little have these same repercussions of violence?
01:15:38.000 Well, what about something like the Christchurch shooter, the guy that shot up the mosque with all of the, you know, both the weapons that he used had all kinds of crazy writing on him and stuff.
01:15:50.000 Is that worth discussing or is that worth making his manifesto known?
01:15:54.000 I mean, he live streamed it on Facebook.
01:15:57.000 I don't know that you could find the actual live stream, but for a while it was available on the internet and you could literally just watch the guy got out of his car, went to his trunk, picked up a gun.
01:16:08.000 I don't remember, I could be misremembering, but I want to say that he's humming as he does it, and it's just really brutal and morbid to think about, you know.
01:16:19.000 It was so casual.
01:16:19.000 That's what I recall.
01:16:20.000 That it was done in such a way that I think the first person at the door greeted the guy, if I'm not mistaken.
01:16:27.000 And the FPS nature of it also made it look so surreal, almost like a video game where, you know, like you're in GTA, where it just almost didn't make sense seeing it.
01:16:38.000 I think on the manifesto stuff, it's like, if we're being honest, it's a messed up way to get your stupid manifesto a ton of attention.
01:16:45.000 And then some people would give credence to it and some people won't.
01:16:48.000 And, you know, that'll kind of just be that, but it's tragic.
01:16:52.000 I'm just wondering if where do you guys think we should draw the line, though?
01:16:56.000 Is there a place where it's acceptable to say, okay, this particular person's information should be given to the public.
01:17:04.000 This particular person's information should be withheld.
01:17:08.000 There is, I think, a valid argument for, look, people shouldn't be kept in the dark.
01:17:16.000 If the government has information, there's no actual reason to withhold it from the public.
01:17:23.000 But there's also the argument, oh, hey, if you put this information out, it may inspire copycats.
01:17:29.000 I'm wondering where you guys, if you guys think there's a line, is it some should, some shouldn't.
01:17:33.000 All of it should be kept as quiet as possible.
01:17:36.000 I think a lot of it should be able to, you can seek it out, but it shouldn't be jammed down your throat.
01:17:42.000 I mean, I think we should be allowed to have the information as citizens.
01:17:45.000 I think Ted Kaczynski is something, for an example, where you can look and go, okay, he's a genius.
01:17:51.000 There's a lot of information here that he was accurate about.
01:17:54.000 He just shouldn't have made nail bombs.
01:17:56.000 Like the whole thing that was wrong about the post office.
01:17:58.000 He was wrong.
01:17:59.000 He really blowing off a postal worker's hand was the thing he shouldn't have done.
01:18:04.000 But the rest of it reads where you're like, pretty accurate.
01:18:07.000 You could have made like a sub stack or something.
01:18:09.000 Yeah, I mean, really, if only the internet was around when he was, you know, and even if it was around, he was in a place with real spotty wife.
01:18:16.000 I imagine out in that shed in the woods.
01:18:20.000 But yeah, only Elon Musk.
01:18:23.000 But yeah, can you imagine Ted Kaczynski the guy that wrote the guy that wrote Industrial Civilization and its consequences.
01:18:33.000 There's probably 30 of them alive today, but Twitter just gets it out of them so they can just get fired up on Twitter and it gets that juice out.
01:18:38.000 I mean, that's a valid point.
01:18:40.000 How many people out there actually the internet has given them an outlet and prevented them from going?
01:18:46.000 I think the opposite.
01:18:47.000 I think more people are getting radicalized on the internet and you could find a small group of people who agree with your delusions on the internet, no matter how dumb your delusion is.
01:18:55.000 You can find a group of people on the internet who agree with-The point that we're making is that those people find people to talk to and that's the outlet as opposed to just- So in the past, if you were a complete wacko, you couldn't find crazy people online who agreed with you and gave you confirmation bias to your crazy ideas.
01:19:19.000 You'd be around people who were like, nah, you're actually a moron.
01:19:21.000 But now you could find somebody who says whatever you want is a natural thing.
01:19:26.000 I'm not arguing against that point.
01:19:27.000 I think you're correct with that.
01:19:28.000 But the point that I'm, the question that's- Well, yeah, that's the thing.
01:19:33.000 It's like we had entire countries that were going to cut their penis off.
01:19:36.000 The point that I'm making.
01:19:39.000 Yeah.
01:19:40.000 I have no idea what this is.
01:19:42.000 The Hailbop.
01:19:43.000 I forget what was it?
01:19:44.000 It was a comet that was coming.
01:19:45.000 Heaven's Gate.
01:19:47.000 And they were like, we're going to ride the comet, but you just have to cut it.
01:19:50.000 But the point that I'm making is you find people to discuss things with.
01:19:55.000 And because you find people to discuss these things with, you don't actually become violent in the real world.
01:20:01.000 And it seems that there is less violence today than there was 20, 30, 40 years ago.
01:20:09.000 We had entire countries that were like communists and fascist.
01:20:09.000 Yeah.
01:20:12.000 Yeah.
01:20:12.000 The idea that these radical ideologies are spreading to the internet is like crazy.
01:20:15.000 It's like last century was way worse for this kind of thing.
01:20:18.000 Yeah, we were talking about this every night.
01:20:19.000 The 20th century was an absolute bloodbath.
01:20:22.000 And all of the radical stuff that people are afraid of, I mean, by the time 1925 rolled around, there had already been the most destructive war in human history.
01:20:35.000 And then to be followed by World War II, which was, again, the most destructive war in human history.
01:20:41.000 Let's give the internet some time to cook, guys.
01:20:43.000 I think it's only been ubiquitous for, what, 20 or 30 years?
01:20:46.000 Let's give to the internet some time to cook.
01:20:48.000 Don't worry.
01:20:48.000 It'll cause a lot of problems with radicalizing people, I think, in the future.
01:20:51.000 I'd only say 15 really has it had a lot of people.
01:20:54.000 Has it really been everywhere that everybody's been on?
01:20:57.000 We don't even have all the Indians on.
01:20:59.000 The Chinese have a great wall of China, internet-wise, Great Firewall of China, or what have you.
01:21:05.000 So, no, and I think if you give like a group of crazy radical communists ways to speak to each other online, I think they'd be talking themselves to the more extreme and not like off the off the extreme.
01:21:19.000 So it's your understanding or your opinion that there are more extreme ideologies today than there were in the 20th century?
01:21:27.000 I think they could be normalized easier by finding peers who agree with you and will confirm your crazy beliefs online, make you feel more comfortable and confident in them.
01:21:38.000 But I also think online, these people that are these like radicals ghetto eyes quicker.
01:21:43.000 They just become purely online types of people where back in the day they had to seek each other out.
01:21:47.000 They'd start compounds.
01:21:49.000 Like, when's the last time we got a good compound?
01:21:50.000 We haven't had a compound in a long time.
01:21:52.000 I just don't know of the good ones.
01:21:53.000 They're off the grid still.
01:21:55.000 I think that, I mean, it's possible that you could prove to be right, but I do think that I think, I still think you're wrong.
01:22:02.000 I think that the 20th century really was like, I think the 20th century might have been the apex in recent history of just absolute batshit crazy people doing crazy things.
01:22:16.000 You could get away with more.
01:22:17.000 I mean, if you even look at like the mafia, you could just walk around like the Teflon Don, just kill people.
01:22:17.000 Absolutely.
01:22:23.000 I mean, it was really, it was really nice.
01:22:26.000 I mean, not that it was good, but I mean, it was that level of anonymity.
01:22:30.000 Like a fun time to live where like you really had to pick and choose the bloodbath you were going to air on the news that night.
01:22:30.000 You know what I mean?
01:22:37.000 There were so many.
01:22:38.000 You know, like you commit crimes, you could just skip town.
01:22:38.000 Yeah.
01:22:42.000 Right.
01:22:42.000 Nobody was finding you.
01:22:43.000 No, I mean, you would just bury somebody and they're like, I don't know what happened to Tim.
01:22:48.000 And it was, that was it.
01:22:49.000 You could dodge a draft by just going to Canada.
01:22:52.000 Yeah.
01:22:53.000 Yeah.
01:22:54.000 They just have a bone spur.
01:22:55.000 You don't even need to go that far.
01:22:56.000 Yeah.
01:22:57.000 Okay.
01:22:57.000 Like now they're solving cold cases with DNA, which is interesting, but there's so many of them.
01:23:04.000 Like now they're about to like find out with Jean Benet and stuff.
01:23:07.000 All you have to do is turn on like Netflix and they have all types of murder mystery things.
01:23:12.000 Oh, yeah.
01:23:13.000 And that's what women like unwind them.
01:23:15.000 I always wondered who's watching this as women.
01:23:16.000 They don't wind a murder.
01:23:17.000 My girlfriend has literally watched everything that Netflix has to offer when it comes to murder.
01:23:22.000 It's terrible.
01:23:23.000 I'm like, I have a lot of guns here.
01:23:25.000 Do I really want you watching these kind of things?
01:23:27.000 And they say if you unwind to that, you have severe mental disorders.
01:23:31.000 And I don't know one woman who doesn't watch that.
01:23:34.000 I feel like severe mental disorders and women kind of go hand in hand.
01:23:40.000 Yeah, maybe they need it.
01:23:41.000 Because they're always like, I want to feel safe.
01:23:42.000 And I'm like, but you go to bed watching the carnival cruise thing where a woman gets taken and they still keep seeing her at different places, even though she's 50 and still being trafficked.
01:23:53.000 Did you see that?
01:23:54.000 No.
01:23:54.000 I didn't even know about it.
01:23:55.000 So my wife's like, yeah, I've watched it twice.
01:23:57.000 Why'd you watch it twice?
01:24:00.000 Horrifying.
01:24:01.000 There was nothing else on.
01:24:02.000 She was like 16 and like the Bahamas with her parents and somebody's just like, oh, worker just took her and she's been gone.
01:24:09.000 Creepy.
01:24:10.000 That's why I don't go on cruises.
01:24:13.000 I don't go on cruises myself.
01:24:15.000 I don't go on cruises because I'm claustrophobic.
01:24:17.000 I want to be able to go where I want.
01:24:17.000 Come on.
01:24:18.000 No, I hate the cruises because you go on there and it's like the workers are like from like the Philippines and Indonesia and they look miserable.
01:24:24.000 And then you ask them, they're like, it's actually a really good job in their country.
01:24:27.000 And you're just like, if I want to murder somebody, I'm inviting them on a cruise.
01:24:30.000 Someone has to say good job and fell up by in their country.
01:24:33.000 It's not a good job.
01:24:34.000 It's not.
01:24:35.000 It's not.
01:24:36.000 They actually fight over this.
01:24:37.000 It's like rapid cheeseburgers for fat Louisianans.
01:24:40.000 Any caveats are not a good idea.
01:24:42.000 It's actually a really good job.
01:24:43.000 Caveat.
01:24:44.000 It's not a really good job.
01:24:44.000 No.
01:24:46.000 Well, they sell cocaine off of Jet Skate.
01:24:46.000 What's another good job there?
01:24:49.000 You could be a child soldier, so it's a little better than that.
01:24:52.000 Have you ever parachuted off the back of a boat and not lived?
01:24:55.000 They do that too.
01:24:57.000 All right, we're going to jump to one last story here.
01:25:01.000 Michael Rappapore was supposed to be playing at the Stardome in Alabama, and it was canceled.
01:25:08.000 He tweeted, played there.
01:25:09.000 My show tonight at the Stardome in Alabama was canceled.
01:25:12.000 I did not cancel.
01:25:13.000 I would never cancel, especially since I'm already here in Birmingham, ready to perform.
01:25:17.000 It was shut down because of protests and threats over my support for Israel and for speaking up about the 50 hostages still being held in Gaza.
01:25:24.000 670 days in captivity and people are protesting me for demanding their release.
01:25:30.000 It's embarrassing.
01:25:30.000 It's sad, but I'm not ashamed.
01:25:32.000 I stand by what I said and who I stand with.
01:25:34.000 Fortunately, I got to meet some incredible people from Shabbad of Alabama today and had the blessings of rapping Teflin, a ginormous mitzvah and a reminder of what really matters.
01:25:45.000 I am Yisrael Shai.
01:25:46.000 That's right.
01:25:47.000 I am Israel Shai.
01:25:48.000 I think he said.
01:25:49.000 Anyways, that's Tefillin and Amistraf.
01:25:53.000 Rapping Tefillin is the weirdest thing that I have ever seen a religion do.
01:25:59.000 Like they put up the weirdest thing.
01:26:01.000 What's one of the weirdest things?
01:26:02.000 They put a box on their head.
01:26:03.000 They put a box on their arm.
01:26:05.000 The scripture memory.
01:26:06.000 They put the box, their scripture.
01:26:08.000 And they're like boxers.
01:26:08.000 Yeah.
01:26:10.000 And then it's cow leather that you rap X amount of times and it's symbolic.
01:26:17.000 But speaking of the 20 hostages, Hamas actually released a hostage video over the weekend of Evi Atar David, where he was starving, literally starving, not fake Palestinian starving, literally skin and bones, forced to dig his own grave, according to the Hamas video.
01:26:37.000 Again, this is Hamas that chose to make a video of them starving somebody and forcing him to dig his own grave and like counting down the days and watching him cry all over himself.
01:26:48.000 So I think it's good awareness that he's bringing to this Mr. Rappaport.
01:26:54.000 So Hamas was violent?
01:26:57.000 Who'd have thunk it?
01:26:58.000 My stars.
01:27:00.000 I still can't believe that there are people that would side with Hamas.
01:27:05.000 They are.
01:27:06.000 Oh, yeah.
01:27:06.000 After the paraglide anymore?
01:27:09.000 I mean, you can be critical.
01:27:10.000 If you want to be critical of Israel for 9-11.
01:27:13.000 If you want to be critical of Israel and the way that they're carrying out the war in Gaza, fine, you can be critical of that.
01:27:13.000 I know, right?
01:27:19.000 I get it.
01:27:20.000 But like the idea that people are like Hamas are the good guys.
01:27:24.000 And it's like, come on.
01:27:26.000 Come on.
01:27:27.000 But you talk about the 90s and people being unaware.
01:27:29.000 This is the Middle East.
01:27:32.000 It's just war all the time and has been since I was a kid.
01:27:32.000 Yeah.
01:27:36.000 Starving children is awful, but this has been the entire time I've been alive.
01:27:42.000 I don't know how people aren't aware of that.
01:27:45.000 And people love to say that it's Israel's fault.
01:27:48.000 It was not Israel's fault that Iran and Iraq were at war for two decades or a decade or whatever.
01:27:55.000 And Iraq is really there because Iran lets them.
01:27:58.000 Because Iran is a very big and in context powerful country compared to when you have Americans going, why would we bomb Iran?
01:27:58.000 Well, yeah.
01:28:08.000 It's like, what?
01:28:11.000 Because I ran because I ran around here?
01:28:17.000 Lebanon?
01:28:18.000 Did you not understand?
01:28:21.000 It's a terrible, dry place that God doesn't want you to live.
01:28:27.000 Nothing grows there.
01:28:30.000 I mean, well, in Iraq.
01:28:31.000 But Iran, if I understand correctly, Iran has, they've got mountains and stuff.
01:28:35.000 That's true.
01:28:36.000 Nice.
01:28:36.000 I've never been.
01:28:37.000 Neither have I. I just, it looks awful from all the footage I've seen.
01:28:42.000 So I could be speaking out of turn.
01:28:44.000 Everything post-1979 seems to be kind of a mess.
01:28:48.000 It's getting blown up all the time.
01:28:49.000 That's every time I see the footage.
01:28:50.000 In Iran?
01:28:51.000 Yeah, if you defend Jews now, you get called the Zionist and you're like, I don't think you should be murdering Jews.
01:28:58.000 Remember how that happened?
01:29:00.000 And not only, so not only if you defend Jews, but if you don't hate Israel, then you're a Zionist.
01:29:08.000 I catch a lot of heat because I'm not like, kill all the Jews.
01:29:12.000 Right.
01:29:13.000 And then you hear Jews go, I'm not anti-Semitic because I'm against Israel.
01:29:17.000 And you're like, what?
01:29:21.000 So what are you then?
01:29:23.000 You're like, well, I'm just pro-Palestine.
01:29:23.000 Yeah.
01:29:25.000 Okay.
01:29:26.000 What do they believe?
01:29:27.000 From the river to the sea.
01:29:28.000 You want to read the Koran and tell me what part of that is pro-you?
01:29:32.000 What do you think?
01:29:33.000 You're going to be saved?
01:29:35.000 Well, especially when it comes to people in the West, those are the same people that would say, you know, I think that I'm a queer for Palestine, which is hilarious.
01:29:44.000 Yeah, it is hilarious.
01:29:44.000 Hilarious.
01:29:46.000 The idea that, you know, they and if you, as we know, they only have sex with children who drive them around.
01:29:57.000 Right.
01:29:58.000 I don't know.
01:29:59.000 Is that what I've heard?
01:30:00.000 That's the case.
01:30:00.000 That's what I've heard.
01:30:01.000 A lot of the soldiers, I don't know what they have over there.
01:30:05.000 Corporals?
01:30:09.000 Sergeants.
01:30:12.000 I don't know what Hamas.
01:30:13.000 No offense.
01:30:14.000 I live, you know, Dearborn, so you're there.
01:30:17.000 God bless you, people.
01:30:19.000 Allah bless you, people.
01:30:22.000 Love you guys.
01:30:23.000 Peace be upon him.
01:30:25.000 The Quran, or as I call it, the good book.
01:30:30.000 It's a bestseller.
01:30:31.000 Oh, it's really top drawer.
01:30:33.000 Flying off the shelves.
01:30:34.000 I call it the new New Testament.
01:30:36.000 So that this Michael Rappaport getting canceled, though.
01:30:40.000 We were talking before the show.
01:30:42.000 It's my sense that this is an internet thing as opposed to a locals in Birmingham thing.
01:30:49.000 I don't imagine that there are a lot of people in Birmingham that are, you know, we got to let them hostages go.
01:30:57.000 You know, that's kind of.
01:30:58.000 No, they're anti-Israel.
01:31:00.000 Yeah, I mean, there's a genocide taking place.
01:31:03.000 That ain't right.
01:31:05.000 Them kids are starving.
01:31:07.000 You know, I mean, is that Jew lover down there?
01:31:13.000 That Zionist boy.
01:31:15.000 Tell me he hates Muslims getting the truck.
01:31:19.000 Getting the queers from Palestine.
01:31:21.000 Get in the truck.
01:31:21.000 We're heading down there.
01:31:22.000 We're going to go down to the stardome and not watch the show.
01:31:28.000 So, I mean, it's my sense that it's kind of an internet thing, but I wonder why is it that, why is it this particular location as opposed to, you know, he's on, is he on tour or is it they just decided, oh, get him now.
01:31:42.000 More progressive than Alabama.
01:31:43.000 You don't tell me the Nazi and higher learning ain't really a Nazi.
01:31:47.000 There, there are a lot of black people in Birmingham, and black people tend to, you know, not be friends.
01:31:47.000 I mean, there's a lot.
01:31:52.000 The stardome is largely a black club.
01:31:54.000 Is it really?
01:31:55.000 Okay.
01:31:55.000 Yeah.
01:31:55.000 Yeah, yeah.
01:31:56.000 So do you think that that's what it is?
01:31:59.000 The black population in Birmingham.
01:32:02.000 They may have just not wanted to go to the show.
01:32:08.000 I mean, I have nothing against him at all, but I mean, that could be it.
01:32:11.000 It just sucks.
01:32:12.000 Yeah.
01:32:12.000 It's like, oh, I got protests.
01:32:13.000 I mean, honestly, they could have been the two that bought tickets and they were like, we got a Tufa one.
01:32:21.000 We got an emailed coupon for a meeting rate.
01:32:29.000 You can't say no to coupons, right?
01:32:30.000 No, I mean, you blame them.
01:32:32.000 Look how happy they are.
01:32:32.000 I can't.
01:32:35.000 Bring those guys up.
01:32:37.000 Look at it.
01:32:37.000 They're excited.
01:32:38.000 Yeah, they got there.
01:32:39.000 And even Rappaport looks like, do I got to take this picture?
01:32:44.000 Jesus, guys, tone it down.
01:32:45.000 Come on, guys.
01:32:46.000 Bull on the nose.
01:32:51.000 Can I get your boys a hat with a brim?
01:32:58.000 Yeah, I mean, I think if it's the real reason that people were protesting.
01:33:03.000 If you're protesting outside and black people want to go to a show, they're going to go to the show.
01:33:08.000 I imagine.
01:33:09.000 They're not going to go.
01:33:10.000 There's a bunch of white people who don't want us to go in.
01:33:12.000 They're going to go, do you want to move?
01:33:18.000 Nobody's ever stopped a black group of people from getting into a concert or out.
01:33:30.000 So I don't know.
01:33:31.000 It seems like a publicity stunt.
01:33:34.000 Maybe it is.
01:33:35.000 Maybe it is.
01:33:36.000 I don't know if there's any kind of, let's see if there's any kind of follow-up to this or if this is the there should be video if there's people protesting, right?
01:33:43.000 Yeah, you'd assume.
01:33:44.000 Partition the auditorium.
01:33:45.000 I will say, he's not my favorite pro-Israel guy.
01:33:49.000 Michael Rappaport.
01:33:49.000 Why is that?
01:33:50.000 He flip-flops a lot.
01:33:52.000 I thought he sucked before the Israel stuff.
01:33:54.000 So now post-Israel stuff, I think he just still sucks.
01:33:57.000 He's a comedian.
01:33:58.000 Like, I don't know.
01:33:59.000 He does shows and stuff.
01:34:00.000 He's like, he used to do when the Knicks drafted Kirstops Porzingus.
01:34:04.000 And he was like, does he even have a green card?
01:34:06.000 It was a beautiful thing.
01:34:08.000 I remember him as like a sports guy.
01:34:10.000 Yeah.
01:34:10.000 And he was kind of racist.
01:34:13.000 He was in like Copland.
01:34:14.000 He was really good.
01:34:14.000 Higher learning.
01:34:15.000 Are all comedians kind of racist?
01:34:17.000 I mean, come on.
01:34:18.000 Good ones.
01:34:19.000 Can you tell me about this phenomenon of all comedians just becoming geopolitical experts?
01:34:24.000 Just, I don't know, the turn of a switch.
01:34:26.000 It's all these guys because rapper port now, too.
01:34:29.000 And it's, I don't know what it is with comedy.
01:34:30.000 Maybe it's about feeling really confident about while you don't know a lot about a topic.
01:34:34.000 Right.
01:34:35.000 What's going on here?
01:34:36.000 For me particular?
01:34:37.000 No, no.
01:34:38.000 Is there something in the and I don't know.
01:34:40.000 They're giving you guys at the back of these comedy clubs.
01:34:42.000 No, I mean a lot of world history books back there.
01:34:45.000 I ended up tons.
01:34:47.000 I ended up on the Anthony Cumiya show, gosh, 2016.
01:34:51.000 So I just started kind of looking into it and I started doing shows at Fox and meeting people.
01:34:55.000 So for me, it was kind of before all of it.
01:34:58.000 I learned talking to people like you.
01:34:58.000 But I don't.
01:35:00.000 The ones that happen to be experts on it like this, I don't understand because I don't buy it.
01:35:06.000 That's why it doesn't make much sense to me, to be honest with you.
01:35:09.000 And also, I'm kind of offended by actors who become comedians like him because you're kind of going up on stage and going, hey, remember me from movies?
01:35:18.000 Well, now I do comedy.
01:35:20.000 You know what I mean?
01:35:21.000 It's like how Jeremy Piven or Dust and Diamond RIP, but it's like how they were something.
01:35:27.000 Now they go and do comedy.
01:35:28.000 It's just, it's odd to me because it's like you didn't start as a comic.
01:35:31.000 You became one after you were that.
01:35:34.000 And I did like Mazag.
01:35:35.000 There's a movie called Bamboozled, actually, that Spike Lee did, where he's the head of like the WB, and he's basically just like tap dancing on a deck.
01:35:43.000 It's like a huge middle finger of the WB.
01:35:45.000 Like Spike Lee or not, I think it's a brilliant movie.
01:35:48.000 And yeah, and he was a really good actor.
01:35:50.000 So I don't know why he became this, but I think he just had something go viral that was political.
01:35:57.000 So he stayed in that realm.
01:35:59.000 And I think a lot of people end up doing shows where they talk about it.
01:36:02.000 So it becomes successful for them.
01:36:04.000 And then they stay in that angle.
01:36:06.000 But once it turns on them, because he was huge left, then he switches and goes another direction.
01:36:12.000 That's why it's hard to say what you really are.
01:36:14.000 That's why I'm fairly moderate, though, because I don't trust either side.
01:36:19.000 And the reason I don't is because, and I've talked about this many times.
01:36:23.000 My dad got Agent Orange from Vietnam.
01:36:25.000 Got sick when I was 15, died when I was 18.
01:36:27.000 The government did nothing to help him.
01:36:29.000 I do not trust either side.
01:36:31.000 I've never seen the VA do anything for anybody.
01:36:33.000 Once our soldiers are taken care of and once I believe that a war deserves to be fought, I will.
01:36:38.000 But until then, I don't believe in any of these people.
01:36:41.000 I believe the Senate is overcrowded.
01:36:43.000 I don't believe politicians care.
01:36:44.000 Every time you get stuck in traffic, that's what I believe that they don't.
01:36:48.000 I believe they take our money, they overtax us, and they waste lives, and they do not care about the average human being, and they want to keep us fighting.
01:36:56.000 That's what I truly believe.
01:36:57.000 So when people go, oh, you're moderate, you might sit on a fence.
01:37:00.000 I do, because I do not believe I'm not partisan.
01:37:05.000 I do not believe in neither of these people.
01:37:07.000 And to look at somebody, and I voted for Trump, and I've said that, but even that has now disappointed me.
01:37:14.000 And until he can prove the Epstein list, because that's something I believed in, I thought he was going to stop corruption.
01:37:20.000 I thought he was going to go after the swamp.
01:37:22.000 Well, does it get any murkier than that?
01:37:24.000 I don't think so.
01:37:26.000 So I want to see where all of this goes.
01:37:28.000 I'm so disappointed because we are polluted now with politicians.
01:37:33.000 And they're nothing more than insider traders who take our money and gamble with it with tips they create themselves.
01:37:41.000 It's fascinating because a lot of comedians on both sides have become some of the most potent voice voices when it comes to a lot of issues like this.
01:37:49.000 I don't know if it's, I don't know if I'm being cynical now.
01:37:51.000 I don't know if it's just trying to get some more buzz going on.
01:37:54.000 So I understand.
01:37:55.000 I don't know if it's like they're just hopping on trends, but they're doing it effectively.
01:37:58.000 And a lot of these guys, their comedy is second or third to their activism.
01:38:03.000 And so I don't know if they're just straight up opportunists, just hopping on trends or they truly care, but they are getting the most ears in a lot of these cases.
01:38:12.000 There's some leftist pro-Palestinian guy named Jacob Berger, I believe, who's very popular in that space and he gets a lot of attention.
01:38:19.000 Obviously, there's Dave Smith, who gets a lot of attention.
01:38:22.000 There's Mike Rappaport, who gets a lot of attention.
01:38:25.000 Theo Vond, whenever he talks about politics, there's a requirement to voice your opinion in politics nowadays, though.
01:38:33.000 If you don't, you get accosted by people that are accusing you of not having the correct politics, or you get accused of being this supporter or that supporter, whatever.
01:38:45.000 So it's almost a requirement to say, look, this is how I think about these things.
01:38:49.000 And there is kind of a politically correct politics to have now.
01:38:54.000 Like comedians aren't even comedians anymore.
01:38:55.000 They just start riffing on politics.
01:38:57.000 They're just like next-level political commentators.
01:39:00.000 They've been sprinkling some jokes sometimes.
01:39:02.000 I know more comedians who that's like public faces, though.
01:39:06.000 That's why almost every opinion I've had tonight has been a joke.
01:39:09.000 It's like comedy should come first to every comic, in my opinion.
01:39:13.000 I agree.
01:39:13.000 I think Dave Smith is very passionate about what he believes.
01:39:17.000 And I think that's why he's a little bit more outspoken than most people about it.
01:39:21.000 And what do you think he believes?
01:39:22.000 Because I believe, again, in a very cynical way, that a lot of these guys, it's just whatever's getting me the numbers.
01:39:27.000 Like, that's what satisfies them.
01:39:29.000 I don't think he's chasing the numbers.
01:39:30.000 I think that he very much believes the stuff that he says.
01:39:33.000 I think that he very much believes that he does not believe in the war.
01:39:37.000 Do you think he has more success as a comedian or doing his activism stuff?
01:39:40.000 He was very successful.
01:39:41.000 He was a successful comedian, actually.
01:39:43.000 So I think he's kind of lost fans and gained some as a result of it.
01:39:47.000 I think his number is very clearly shotten up since he's talked about more of his activism stuff.
01:39:52.000 And I think that's a lot of being on the Joe Rogan podcast multiple times.
01:39:58.000 I mean, he was on, he's been on it for so many years, it's tough to say, you know.
01:40:02.000 So, I mean, he was known for Legion of Skanks, which that was really big with Compound.
01:40:06.000 So I think he's definitely got his fanship being in the political sphere.
01:40:12.000 But I mean, he goes back to Red Eye.
01:40:14.000 He goes back to all that stuff.
01:40:15.000 So he's always been kind of, you could say it's like a Bill Maher.
01:40:18.000 I mean, you can't really take the politics out of Bill Maher.
01:40:21.000 Where if you look at somebody like Carlin, that's more who I admire because that's just completely blackpilled and kind of against everything.
01:40:29.000 And that's where I sit.
01:40:31.000 It's hard for me to align with anything because there's so much transparent stuff.
01:40:36.000 Here's my kind of beef with the comedians in the political realm, too.
01:40:39.000 It's like you're arguing with like a wet pig, and it's like if you pin them down, it's like you're a moron who's like, you know, you're just arguing with somebody who's just making jokes all day.
01:40:47.000 And then if you lose, it's like, oh, you lost some debate to some moron who's like a comedian just making jokes.
01:40:52.000 It's Jon Stewart did this to Tucker Carlson once on my crossfire.
01:40:55.000 He's like, oh, you're taking me seriously?
01:40:57.000 Like, what kind of moron are you?
01:40:58.000 You're supposed to be the serious political guy.
01:41:00.000 So it's like, you know, engage and, you know, they win.
01:41:05.000 There's really no way.
01:41:06.000 Stewart, though, holds himself as a serious political guy.
01:41:09.000 Well, you don't think, you don't think like Dave Smith or even Michael Rappaport also hold themselves to be serious political guys?
01:41:14.000 They definitely do.
01:41:15.000 I would say Dave Smith does.
01:41:17.000 So I think at the end of the day, it's not, I don't think he defends himself with that comedy angle.
01:41:22.000 I would be surprised that Jon Stewart do that.
01:41:24.000 I haven't seen that clip.
01:41:26.000 Yeah.
01:41:26.000 Because I would say that almost because going on the daily show, was it a while ago?
01:41:30.000 It was back when Tucker Carlson was on Crossfire at that point, though.
01:41:33.000 He was still a cat.
01:41:34.000 No, but I think that's true while talking to any, having a political debate with any comedian.
01:41:40.000 I think it's still a whole lot.
01:41:40.000 I think finding the humor in it, though, is fair.
01:41:43.000 I mean, if you're going to talk about anything in life, politics is still fair game.
01:41:47.000 So you're allowed to argue it as a comic the same way as you're allowed to argue anything else.
01:41:51.000 I mean, it's the same, I mean, across the board.
01:41:54.000 I mean, if you see something wrong, you're allowed to point it out.
01:41:56.000 I guess my beef is that comedians just barely aren't even, they're not funny anymore.
01:42:00.000 They're just yapping and bitching.
01:42:01.000 No, about politics.
01:42:02.000 A lot yapping bitching about politics.
01:42:03.000 That's it.
01:42:03.000 It's like, thanks for your nice lecture.
01:42:05.000 You're not, you know, Dave Chappelle, where you got to that point in your career where you can just give me a long lecture and I'll think you're funny no matter what.
01:42:10.000 It's just like, why are you bitching and moaning on stage?
01:42:13.000 Make a joke.
01:42:14.000 Well, I love Dave, but I mean, I would argue that the element of that is the turnout an hour because everything's content online now.
01:42:21.000 And I would put that in movies.
01:42:22.000 I'd put that in a lot of things.
01:42:23.000 I think we stopped creating art and we started creating content.
01:42:26.000 Yeah, I think, and it's worth noting that if you're watching a comedian stand-up, then they tend to be funny.
01:42:34.000 Like, if you watch Dave stand-up, Dave looks funny.
01:42:37.000 But if you're watching Dave on a podcast, Dave is not doing stand-up on a podcast.
01:42:43.000 And he's not on a podcast because he's a comedian.
01:42:46.000 He's on a podcast because he's a libertarian activist almost all the time.
01:42:50.000 Right?
01:42:51.000 Like, very rarely does Dave go onto a podcast as Dave Smith, the comedian.
01:42:56.000 Like, he's a funny guy, and so he might crack some jokes, but he's not there specifically because of Dave Smith, the comedian.
01:43:03.000 He's there because he's a political activist.
01:43:06.000 He's there because he's a libertarian.
01:43:08.000 My thing, too, is if you look at, okay, if there's an authenticity to it, right?
01:43:13.000 Now, if I look at a lot of people in the right-wing sphere that I've met personally, they're not authentic.
01:43:20.000 They're lying.
01:43:21.000 They're just saying something to make money.
01:43:23.000 I've met plenty of these people.
01:43:24.000 They have other people write all their stuff.
01:43:26.000 They're not actually bringing out what their natural opinion is.
01:43:29.000 You've said everything you feel today off the top of your head.
01:43:31.000 I've watched it.
01:43:32.000 There's an authenticity to you.
01:43:33.000 So I believe you.
01:43:34.000 I enjoy talking to you.
01:43:35.000 It's what I felt about everybody in this room.
01:43:38.000 But I've met plenty of people who aren't that person.
01:43:41.000 So you meet so many inauthentic people in this sphere that I look at those people and go, well, isn't that the same uninformed person?
01:43:49.000 But they're making 100% of what they do in this.
01:43:53.000 It's a fair point.
01:43:54.000 And yes.
01:43:54.000 I guess.
01:43:55.000 Yeah.
01:43:56.000 All right.
01:43:56.000 We're going to.
01:43:57.000 Oh, no.
01:43:58.000 No, no.
01:43:58.000 I think it's, I mean, and I do agree.
01:44:00.000 I mean, there are a lot of people that I do find mind-numbingly painful to watch now because of this.
01:44:08.000 Like, I wish I fell into politics sort of incidentally.
01:44:13.000 But I think comedy's number one, man.
01:44:16.000 And I think it always should be for any comic.
01:44:18.000 That's how I personally feel about it.
01:44:20.000 All right.
01:44:21.000 We're going to go to Super Chat.
01:44:22.000 So smash the like button, share the show with everyone you know.
01:44:25.000 Go on over to rumble.com, become a member, then head on over to Timcast.com and join our Discord where you can hang out with like-minded people and you can call into the after show.
01:44:37.000 You can talk to us, talk to our guests, ask questions.
01:44:39.000 But right now, we're going to go to your super chats.
01:44:42.000 And I think we're going to start with some Rumble rants here.
01:44:45.000 Shane H. Wilder says, Rwanda just agreed to take up to 250 of the deported illegal aliens.
01:44:50.000 If they want them, they can have them.
01:44:52.000 They can put them in Don Cheadle's hotel.
01:44:55.000 I'd rather go back to whatever South American country than Africa.
01:44:59.000 I mean, damn.
01:45:00.000 I mean, even what are you going to share the food?
01:45:06.000 Rwanda.
01:45:08.000 But the reason that they're ostensibly the reason they're going to South America to Africa or countries in Africa is because the countries of origin don't want them back because they're actual criminals.
01:45:21.000 Like they're the bad guys that the bad ombres that Trump has sworn to get or has said that he's going to get rid of.
01:45:28.000 So look, I am as pro deportation as it come as you can get.
01:45:35.000 Like send them back, send them back by the bus load, by the plane load.
01:45:39.000 I don't care.
01:45:40.000 Just send them back.
01:45:41.000 Do you think there's any exception?
01:45:43.000 Personally, no.
01:45:44.000 My opinion is that everyone that's here illegally should go.
01:45:47.000 We should have a moratorium on all immigration for the next 10 years.
01:45:52.000 And so that way the people that are here legally can assimilate.
01:45:56.000 And the only people that should be left let in are like possibly 0-1 visas.
01:46:01.000 And it shouldn't, there should be a stringent, there should be stringent requirements to those 0-1 visas as well.
01:46:07.000 You can't be someone that's like, you know, if you're, if you have anti-American sentiments, if you're some kind of socialist or you don't believe in America's values, then you shouldn't be allowed in.
01:46:07.000 Like you have to come.
01:46:19.000 I'm very, very strict about what we should do when it comes to see.
01:46:24.000 Now, this is the Alex Stein big booty Latina argument.
01:46:29.000 And I still say no.
01:46:31.000 He's not even dating a home booty Latina that way.
01:46:31.000 Wow.
01:46:33.000 And his whole shtick is big booty Latina.
01:46:33.000 No.
01:46:36.000 And he has the whitest girlfriend I could ever eat.
01:46:38.000 Oh, I ever imagined.
01:46:39.000 No, I have to work next.
01:46:41.000 It's all a fraud.
01:46:41.000 He's aggro.
01:46:43.000 You can't trust him.
01:46:43.000 You comedians.
01:46:44.000 No.
01:46:45.000 Let's not call him a comedian.
01:46:47.000 No.
01:46:48.000 What?
01:46:49.000 We're gatekeeping it now.
01:46:53.000 Alexander Urban.
01:46:54.000 Alex is a good friend of mine.
01:46:58.000 But yeah, nobody can stay.
01:47:00.000 Everyone has to go.
01:47:01.000 If you're here illegally, you have to go.
01:47:03.000 And I would go so far.
01:47:04.000 If you're like this close, you got a family and a dog.
01:47:08.000 They can all go.
01:47:09.000 A dog can stay.
01:47:10.000 But the kids would be kosher.
01:47:12.000 That's the issue.
01:47:12.000 They'd have anchor babies, so the children are citizens.
01:47:15.000 You've been in the country.
01:47:16.000 The kids can come back when they're 18.
01:47:19.000 Like, send them back with the parents.
01:47:21.000 They need their, yeah, when they're legal age to come in, then they can come back because they're U.S. citizens, but they have to leave with the parents.
01:47:28.000 Then they can come back.
01:47:30.000 And you can't chain migrate back either because you were here illegally.
01:47:33.000 You don't get to come back when your kids come back.
01:47:35.000 I'm the kind of guy that thinks that we should actually punish business owners that hire illegals.
01:47:41.000 And I think that if you rent your apartment or a room or whatever, a house to an illegal, you should lose the house.
01:47:50.000 Like, I want to make it, I want to make it as the thing that I want is I want to make it as uncomfortable for illegals to be here as possible.
01:48:00.000 So that way they decide to leave of their own volition.
01:48:03.000 So we don't have to have ICE going and kicking indoors and finding people and stuff.
01:48:09.000 The more difficult you make.
01:48:10.000 So this sounds mean, right?
01:48:12.000 But it's actually the most compassionate way to do it.
01:48:16.000 Make it incredibly difficult for them to live here, tax remittances at 90%.
01:48:21.000 Do everything you can to make it as uncomfortable and unwelcoming here.
01:48:26.000 So that way they decide to leave on their own.
01:48:28.000 So we don't have to have ICE go and confront people.
01:48:32.000 You have to arrest people.
01:48:33.000 You don't have to have the police interactions.
01:48:36.000 I think the ICE show is the problem.
01:48:38.000 Yeah.
01:48:39.000 I think the way if we can tone that down, that would be the best way to handle it.
01:48:42.000 If you tax the remittances, you're going to save a lot of money on ICE because that's the number one thing is people want to send money back to their homeland.
01:48:50.000 Make it.
01:48:50.000 They'd leave themselves.
01:48:51.000 You wouldn't even have to worry about it.
01:48:53.000 The more difficult and more uncomfortable it is to be here as an illegal, the better.
01:48:57.000 So that way they leave on their own.
01:48:59.000 And then, like, look, man, you want to give them $1,000 to leave?
01:49:01.000 I'm good with that too.
01:49:02.000 Give them $2,000.
01:49:04.000 If you leave and you use the app and say, look, here I am in my home country and I left, we'll send you $2,000.
01:49:11.000 There you go.
01:49:11.000 Like, the point isn't that I'm trying to hurt these people.
01:49:15.000 The point is, I want as many people that are here illegally to leave America of their own volition, buy their own plane tickets.
01:49:24.000 So that way, ICE doesn't have to get involved.
01:49:26.000 And the more uncomfortable it is to be here, the more people will leave.
01:49:31.000 And then we shut the border down for a decade so that way the people that are here can assimilate.
01:49:35.000 Everybody has to learn English.
01:49:37.000 The federal government should stop making any kind of paperwork or anything in any other language.
01:49:42.000 They shouldn't provide translators.
01:49:45.000 You have to learn English.
01:49:46.000 And my argument for that is because, look, everybody that speaks the same language, if you understand English, you can understand the concepts.
01:49:55.000 There are certain concepts and jokes that don't, like, they're jokes specifically, right?
01:50:00.000 That the easiest to understand.
01:50:01.000 Like, they don't make sense in other languages, or there are jokes that make sense in another language that don't make sense in English.
01:50:07.000 That's because of the way that language works.
01:50:08.000 So if you all speak the same language, then you can understand the same concepts.
01:50:14.000 It's far easier for people to understand the same concepts.
01:50:17.000 So these things, I think, would actually make people that are here illegally leave, and it'll make sure that we can become a country that is less divided because we all share more commonality.
01:50:29.000 So good answer.
01:50:30.000 Thank you.
01:50:32.000 Anyways, let's see.
01:50:37.000 Mike the WAP says, I liked him, but when he's gone, it's like the teacher is out.
01:50:42.000 There's a substitute, and you get to fool around.
01:50:44.000 Clank.
01:50:45.000 Oh, you're a clanker.
01:50:47.000 He's talking about.
01:50:48.000 He's talking about the Rizzler.
01:50:51.000 Sticks.
01:50:52.000 The Hexenhammer.
01:50:53.000 No, stick.
01:50:54.000 I thought it was a slur for Robot.
01:50:54.000 I thought that was a slur.
01:50:56.000 Clinker.
01:50:56.000 No, the spoon.
01:50:57.000 Wireback, dirty clankers coming for a jerk.
01:50:59.000 Yeah, those wirebacks.
01:51:00.000 No, he's a fan of Sticks, Hex, and Hammer.
01:51:03.000 And Sticks is great.
01:51:04.000 He's great.
01:51:04.000 Should have him on the show.
01:51:06.000 I don't know that he travels, but he's great.
01:51:09.000 No, he's a YouTube personality.
01:51:12.000 Oh.
01:51:14.000 Political commentator.
01:51:16.000 Usually doesn't wear a shirt, I believe.
01:51:17.000 Eccentric cool guy.
01:51:19.000 Bert.
01:51:19.000 Nice.
01:51:21.000 Let's see.
01:51:22.000 SH22 says, this is what happens when you have women left to raise their kids alone, be it from death, jail, criminal enterprise.
01:51:30.000 No positive male rule model leads the way to this crap in D.C. I mean, look, man, there's a lot of people that complain about toxic masculinity and stuff, but like young men are raised by single mothers and they're instructed by women in schools.
01:51:46.000 So if the problem is young men, who's teaching these young men?
01:51:52.000 It's not positive male role models, you know?
01:51:55.000 Yeah.
01:51:56.000 I mean, a dad needs to be involved in a kid's life just as much.
01:52:00.000 And if they choose to be out of it, that's on them.
01:52:03.000 Yeah.
01:52:04.000 And like, if you choose to be out of your kid's life, you're a garbage.
01:52:09.000 Yeah, you're a bad person.
01:52:10.000 Right.
01:52:11.000 There's been nothing better for me than having a kid.
01:52:13.000 Yeah.
01:52:14.000 I'll take that a little bit further.
01:52:15.000 You need to marry your baby mama or your scumbag.
01:52:18.000 Yeah.
01:52:19.000 Take care of that kid for at least 18 years and then divorce.
01:52:23.000 Otherwise, pretend.
01:52:25.000 Just pretend in front of the kids.
01:52:27.000 Well, don't do the crime if you can't do the time.
01:52:28.000 LARPing.
01:52:29.000 It's LARPing.
01:52:30.000 Yeah, you shouldn't be boning women that you.
01:52:32.000 Just sneak out to one of them whack shacks.
01:52:36.000 You know what I mean?
01:52:36.000 Get a little rubbing tug.
01:52:38.000 I mean, look, any closet in an internet connection is one of them whack shacks nowadays.
01:52:43.000 Yeah, that's true.
01:52:45.000 It's a terrific thing.
01:52:47.000 Just you and another each other's beard.
01:52:50.000 You know what I mean.
01:52:51.000 Michael McCord says they need a Rico-like charge for adults who convince or order juveniles to commit crime.
01:52:58.000 That's not a bad idea.
01:52:59.000 I think that's a very good idea.
01:53:00.000 Yeah.
01:53:01.000 Some kind of something to say, you're committing this crime as well as the child.
01:53:12.000 I don't disagree, but I don't think this is stopping the quote-unquote youth from the youth.
01:53:17.000 DC crimes and stuff.
01:53:18.000 Like a New York Post-Chow criminal, though.
01:53:21.000 So I. What kind of crime?
01:53:23.000 Well, murder.
01:53:24.000 Drugs, alcohol.
01:53:25.000 Not much murder.
01:53:27.000 Not much.
01:53:27.000 Just a weed.
01:53:28.000 Just a small amount.
01:53:29.000 Drug dealing.
01:53:30.000 When weed was bad.
01:53:31.000 A normal amount of murder.
01:53:32.000 When weed was very illegal.
01:53:34.000 I don't know.
01:53:34.000 20 years ago, I don't know.
01:53:35.000 Super illegal.
01:53:36.000 It was very illegal.
01:53:36.000 Oh, no.
01:53:36.000 Yeah.
01:53:38.000 You had to go to terrible places to get it.
01:53:40.000 Now you just walk into a store.
01:53:42.000 You had to go to terrible places.
01:53:43.000 Everywhere.
01:53:44.000 You have to avoid CBS.
01:53:44.000 Like the mall.
01:53:47.000 Yeah.
01:53:48.000 Now you just walk into Kroger.
01:53:48.000 Yeah.
01:53:49.000 Yeah.
01:53:50.000 You use your card for gas points.
01:53:52.000 Yeah, it's nuts.
01:53:53.000 But yeah, I think you should get a chance, though, depending on where you were raised, what's going on in your house.
01:54:00.000 I think you deserve an opportunity to turn your life around at that age.
01:54:04.000 But if you are of an age where you're 30-something years old, convincing kids to go out and do this stuff, you should absolutely catch a Rico charge for that.
01:54:11.000 That is trafficking.
01:54:13.000 Something.
01:54:13.000 Yeah.
01:54:13.000 I mean something and not that it's I'm not saying it'll stop these kids from doing illegal things, but I think it'll stop some.
01:54:21.000 Yeah, I don't know that it's a deterrent.
01:54:23.000 I do like the idea of it being a punishment, though.
01:54:26.000 Like, I think that most criminals don't look at the law as a deterrent.
01:54:32.000 If they're the kind of person that's going to break the law, they're going to break the law regardless.
01:54:36.000 Prison fundamentally isn't a deterrent.
01:54:37.000 It's just it's about incapacitation.
01:54:39.000 Yeah, well, I mean, it's literally about taking the most violent people in our society off the streets and moving and isolating the rest of the world.
01:54:44.000 That's why, like, when they plea insanity, it makes no sense.
01:54:46.000 We're like, I'm too insane to go to jail.
01:54:48.000 It's like, no, you're like the person that needs to go to jail.
01:54:50.000 Right.
01:54:51.000 Perfect candidate to go to jail.
01:54:53.000 Ian's, you're too insane to sit in court all that.
01:54:56.000 Well, then you should be put on lithium and locked up.
01:54:58.000 Yeah.
01:54:59.000 Definitely taken off the streets.
01:55:00.000 Well, I also think if you look at, like, look at a 14-year-old and then look at high school and think about how long that was for you.
01:55:07.000 Think of the idea of the, like, you don't get how short of a period of time that is in that time frame.
01:55:12.000 That's forever for you.
01:55:14.000 You can learn a lesson in that amount of time.
01:55:16.000 It's not like it's now.
01:55:17.000 It's not like you have a grasp of time.
01:55:19.000 Like, when you're that old, you still have an opportunity to change yourself.
01:55:23.000 And I know a lot of people who have.
01:55:25.000 It's beautiful.
01:55:26.000 Story of redemption.
01:55:27.000 Exactly.
01:55:28.000 Beautiful.
01:55:28.000 They are real.
01:55:29.000 Some of them are.
01:55:30.000 Not Rudy.
01:55:31.000 That guy, he didn't do shit.
01:55:35.000 You nag somebody until they let you play and you go around talking about how you did something.
01:55:35.000 Come on.
01:55:41.000 Rudy didn't do shit.
01:55:45.000 Ruffio 1804 says, ahoy, Dave.
01:55:49.000 Ahoy.
01:55:50.000 I love Norm World and I'm buying a fuzzy memoir tonight.
01:55:53.000 You are the man.
01:55:54.000 Thank you.
01:55:55.000 That's your book, correct?
01:55:57.000 My book, Party of One, a Fuzzy Memoir.
01:55:59.000 Where can they find it?
01:56:00.000 They can find it on Amazon.com.
01:56:03.000 And the audiobook is coming out at the end of the month.
01:56:06.000 Did you do the audio book?
01:56:07.000 Yes, I'm working on it right now.
01:56:08.000 Awesome.
01:56:08.000 But I'm trying to add some stuff to it so it's not just reading, make it a little bit more unique.
01:56:13.000 Ad-libbing.
01:56:14.000 A little ad-libbing, and then I'm adding a little bit of some music stuff to it.
01:56:19.000 Oh, nice.
01:56:19.000 And just some sound effects, making it a little bit different.
01:56:23.000 And, you know, like police brutality and some other things I went through.
01:56:26.000 But it's about my different arrests, stuff that I had to deal with, being locked in a mental hospital, stuff like that.
01:56:33.000 Okay.
01:56:34.000 Nice.
01:56:35.000 Bueno Malio says it's mortgage fraud because he claimed both his California home and Maryland home were both his primary residence.
01:56:42.000 We can live and work in Mary.
01:56:44.000 He can live and work in Maryland as a congressman, but he called it his primary for better local, for better loan terms.
01:56:50.000 Yeah, we were talking about that.
01:56:52.000 Look, man, I do think that they should do everything they can to make his day miserable.
01:57:00.000 I'm not a fan of Adam Schiff.
01:57:02.000 I think that the whole Russia thing was garbage and he was one of the most guilty of pushing that narrative.
01:57:10.000 So if they want to make his life miserable because the process is the punishment, I'm all for it.
01:57:19.000 He's got gay face.
01:57:21.000 He does have gay face.
01:57:22.000 They love that in California.
01:57:24.000 Yeah, that's why he's a senator.
01:57:25.000 That tastes funny.
01:57:28.000 Is he strange?
01:57:29.000 I don't, I mean, he might pretend to be.
01:57:33.000 There's no way, though, with those cheeks.
01:57:35.000 It looks like he's storing semen for the winter.
01:57:40.000 Wyatt Claydenberg says, a lot, the feds could only convict Al Capone on tax evasion.
01:57:46.000 He murdered people.
01:57:47.000 Sometimes you have to get them on whatever you can.
01:57:50.000 Sometimes you just got to get him on mortgage fraud.
01:57:53.000 I mean, whatever it has to be.
01:57:56.000 That's all you could get sometimes.
01:57:57.000 You got to get.
01:57:59.000 They also let him out of Elcatraz because his brain was rotting from incurable syphilis and he was fishing in his pool.
01:58:06.000 Oh, it's true.
01:58:08.000 That's wild.
01:58:09.000 Yeah.
01:58:09.000 True.
01:58:10.000 Can you imagine?
01:58:10.000 Nice.
01:58:10.000 Yeah.
01:58:11.000 And they were all watching him like the feds and they're like, I don't think we need to watch.
01:58:14.000 There's no way he's pretending all day.
01:58:18.000 Awesome.
01:58:19.000 Josh O says, all that remains is a favorite band.
01:58:22.000 Thank you very much, sir.
01:58:24.000 Found Timcast by your stuff.
01:58:26.000 As a cop, I have enjoyed y'all's content.
01:58:28.000 There are some things y'all say about cops I 100% agree with.
01:58:31.000 Love y'all, and you too, Dave.
01:58:33.000 Thank you.
01:58:34.000 That's funny because I think we trash cops on this show a relative amount.
01:58:38.000 The other day I was on, Tim was like, NYPD, yeah, they're a bunch of commies.
01:58:45.000 So thank you for, we love law enforcement here.
01:58:48.000 Ice, you guys are doing.
01:58:49.000 Josh is like, yeah, they are, though.
01:58:51.000 So there you go.
01:58:53.000 It's the show for you.
01:58:55.000 Coffee Jerk85 says reanimating a dead teenager just to have them voice over your political views to the public is frigging ghoulish.
01:59:02.000 I'll take 1984 over this S any day.
01:59:06.000 I do think ghoulish is the proper term for that.
01:59:09.000 It's pretty gross.
01:59:10.000 Yeah, you should only reanimate a dead teenager for sex.
01:59:16.000 Yeah.
01:59:17.000 I mean, I think we all know that.
01:59:19.000 Yeah, you're kind of preaching other questions.
01:59:20.000 I mean, 18, but yeah, thank you.
01:59:22.000 I mean, I'm not saying under.
01:59:24.000 Of course.
01:59:25.000 Of course.
01:59:26.000 How old was Sean Bonet?
01:59:27.000 18, right?
01:59:29.000 I don't know.
01:59:29.000 Man, if she's not, I bet I got some hard drives to break.
01:59:36.000 Three years of hard work.
01:59:38.000 Oh, boy.
01:59:39.000 And I do mean hard.
01:59:39.000 Oh, boy.
01:59:42.000 That is not a floppy disc.
01:59:48.000 Let's see.
01:59:50.000 Gushido Kai says, by that logic, if you're pro-Israel, you're anti-Christian.
01:59:55.000 Why don't you ask the average Israeli what they think of Christians?
01:59:58.000 A Jew can't be, a Jew can be an anti-Zionist and not anti-Jew.
02:00:03.000 What do you think of Christians a lot?
02:00:05.000 Where'd this guy come from?
02:00:07.000 I love Christians, and the Jewish state exists due to the continued support of Christians.
02:00:13.000 The Christians are the Jews keepers in this planet.
02:00:16.000 There's not enough Jews to be able to do it by ourselves.
02:00:18.000 So if we didn't have, we're definitely not getting the support from Muslims, which there are billions of.
02:00:22.000 So, you know, the Jews and the Israeli state, the state of Israel, exists to the good blessings and hard support from Christians.
02:00:33.000 Well, and it's pretty clear that they want everyone dead who's not them.
02:00:38.000 Who's they?
02:00:39.000 Muslim.
02:00:40.000 Oh, okay.
02:00:41.000 That's not being, I'm not being racist.
02:00:43.000 I'm being just dead accurate to their book.
02:00:46.000 So why would you side with that?
02:00:48.000 That's not, I'm not even saying get rid of them or anything against them.
02:00:52.000 I'm just saying that is the actual goal of the Quran: they should inherit the earth.
02:00:58.000 They have a whole PvP-enabled server.
02:01:00.000 They should just stay there.
02:01:02.000 Stay out of here.
02:01:03.000 Stay out of America.
02:01:04.000 And the quick tidbit: the way that anti-Israel sentiment manifests in our country is mostly from the left thinking that Israel is white and right-wing-coated.
02:01:13.000 That's the reason why far leftists say to Israel, because they believe Israel are white people.
02:01:17.000 So I think it's a fascinating, I don't know, coalition we have of some people on the far right and some people on the far left being anti-Israel when, for all other intents and purposes, these people should absolutely hate each other.
02:01:30.000 How much crap do you get from like Reupers and stuff on the internet?
02:01:33.000 Not much.
02:01:34.000 I don't, I mean, I just post my journalism too.
02:01:36.000 So, you know, my reporting, I think, speaks for itself.
02:01:38.000 So you don't really interact on the old end.
02:01:40.000 No, no.
02:01:41.000 I'm not yapping on Twitter.
02:01:42.000 I feel like people posture all day on Twitter.
02:01:44.000 It's brain-rotting stuff, frankly.
02:01:47.000 Isn't the number one name in Ireland Muhammad?
02:01:50.000 Doesn't that say something?
02:01:50.000 I believe.
02:01:52.000 I don't know about Ireland, but I believe that is.
02:01:53.000 Definitely AKA.
02:01:54.000 It's 100%.
02:01:55.000 Yeah, so yeah, you have like Muhammad O'Reilly.
02:02:01.000 That's a problem, right?
02:02:06.000 Raymond G. Stanley Jr. says, Killer Show, Dave is leading the revolution.
02:02:11.000 Oh, thank you.
02:02:12.000 I don't know where that's going.
02:02:14.000 Who are we going after that?
02:02:16.000 Where are we going, McDonald's?
02:02:21.000 Well, listen, share the show with your friends, everyone you know.
02:02:21.000 All right.

02:02:29.000 I'm going to pick up a thing real quick.
02:02:30.000 Yeah, absolutely.
02:02:31.000 We're about to get there.
02:02:31.000 Oh, go ahead.
02:02:32.000 Dave, you got to interrupt you.
02:02:33.000 If you got anything that you want to plug, sorry.
02:02:36.000 Yes, please.
02:02:38.000 I just wrote an article.
02:02:39.000 It was one of my first ones called In Defense of Kwame Kilpatrick.
02:02:43.000 It's on, if you go to blazeunlimited.com, you can use code Dave20 for $20 off a subscription.
02:02:50.000 It includes my show, Normal World, and tour dates, DaveLandau.com.
02:02:53.000 Sorry, I didn't mean to jump in.
02:02:54.000 That's quite a pimp in line.
02:02:56.000 Do you have an X account or anything?
02:02:57.000 I do.
02:02:58.000 It's at LandauDave.
02:03:00.000 And yeah, that's Instagram, I think, is similar.
02:03:04.000 Just go to DaveLanda.com.
02:03:06.000 It'll guide you.

02:03:21.000 I think I iron antibodies or I got the JJ vaccine.
02:03:25.000 Maybe that's what it is.
02:03:26.000 There you go.
02:03:27.000 That's good.
02:03:27.000 It's a hard stopper.

02:03:29.000 A lot.
02:03:30.000 No, you're just next uptake.
02:03:31.000 That's what it is.
02:03:31.000 I just realized all you guys are wearing hats, by the way.
02:03:34.000 Alad Eliyahu, White House correspondent.
02:03:38.000 Recently, I've also been doing a lot of coverage outside of New York City immigration courts, witnessing ICE detain illegal aliens, which has been very dramatic, thrilling work.
02:03:46.000 All of that is on my Twitter and Instagram.
02:03:49.000 Thank you guys for tuning in.
02:03:50.000 I am Phil that remains on Twix, and the band is all that remains.

02:04:05.000 Tomorrow.
02:07:47.000 Thank you.
02:07:52.000 Yo, tell me when we're good.
02:07:54.000 Oh, we're good.
02:07:54.000 Oh, we're good.
02:07:55.000 Hey, guess what?
02:07:56.000 We're going to talk about nuclear reactors on the moon.
02:07:59.000 So, The Hills reporting, Duffy confirms fast-track plan to build nuclear reactor on the moon.
02:08:06.000 Transportation Secretary and interim NASA Administrator Sean Duffy outlined the space agency's fast-track plan to build a nuclear reactor on the moon on Tuesday.
02:08:16.000 We're in a race to the moon, in a race with China to the moon, and to have a base on the moon.
02:08:22.000 We need energy.
02:08:23.000 And some of the key locations on the moon, we're going to get solar power, but this fission technology is critically important.
02:08:30.000 And so we've spent $100 million studying, Duffy said during a Department of Transportation press conference.
02:08:37.000 Can we do it?
02:08:38.000 We are now going to move beyond studying, and we are going to be given direction to go, Duffy added.
02:08:44.000 Let's start to deploy our technology to move to actually make this a reality.
02:08:48.000 This is crazy.
02:08:50.000 What do you think, Elod?
02:08:51.000 You're pretty science-skeptical.
02:08:55.000 I wouldn't say science skeptical.
02:08:56.000 I'm actually fascinated by science.
02:08:58.000 I studied biology in college for no good reason.
02:09:01.000 I thought I was going to be a doctor or some shit.
02:09:02.000 What a dumb idea.
02:09:04.000 But this is actually, this makes total sense because how else would there, what else would a good energy source, an easy, good energy source on the moon be?
02:09:13.000 I think the future of energy is nuclear energy.
02:09:16.000 I think what's missing from our current energy solution is nuclear energy.
02:09:21.000 Do you think that going to Mars is a good endeavor?
02:09:21.000 I agree.
02:09:26.000 Yes.
02:09:26.000 And I think the most effective way to do so is using nuclear energy as fuel for it.
02:09:33.000 So like right now we have like dozens of nuclear submarines, right?
02:09:36.000 And I believe like nuclear tech is the future and the safest way to continue our endeavors and energy use.
02:09:44.000 What do you say to people like Elon Musk that say we need to have AI and built into robots in order to start a Mars colony?
02:09:55.000 Repeat that.
02:09:55.000 We need AI.
02:09:56.000 We need AI robots.
02:09:58.000 We need Optimus with general, at least a form of general AI in order to begin colonizing Mars because the Martian environment is extremely hostile to humans.
02:10:11.000 There's a lot of radiation.
02:10:13.000 There's a lot of, it's very cold.
02:10:15.000 There's not a lot of water.
02:10:16.000 We need to send robots that can begin to build the base that will house humans.
02:10:24.000 What do you say to that?
02:10:25.000 I say people like you are clanker fucking supremacists and we need to stop letting robots take the jobs of real colonizers, real American colonizers.
02:10:34.000 Americans need to be colonizing and settling Mars and the moon, not these clinker bots take your job.
02:10:41.000 All right.
02:10:41.000 Get these guys back out of here.
02:10:43.000 We used to manifest destiny, not with robots.
02:10:46.000 It was good.
02:10:46.000 Okay.
02:10:48.000 It was hardworking American settlers that we were proud of colonizing.
02:10:53.000 Now it's like waifer heads out.
02:10:54.000 If the robots colonize Mars for us, did we even really colonize Mars?
02:10:59.000 Or is it the clankers that really did it?
02:11:01.000 You retard.
02:11:01.000 Yes.
02:11:02.000 No, no.
02:11:04.000 I'm sick of these grease crickets.
02:11:07.000 Get him out of here.
02:11:08.000 These clanks.
02:11:10.000 Get him out.
02:11:11.000 I'm sick of them.
02:11:12.000 Landow, Landau.
02:11:13.000 If robots conquer Mars for us, did we conquer Mars?
02:11:17.000 Are we colonizing Mars?
02:11:18.000 If the Clankers got there and are actually doing it, if there are no humans on Mars and it's just robots doing the colonization, are we colonizing Mars or are the Clankers?
02:11:28.000 It's just Johnny 5 calves with nobody in them.
02:11:31.000 What's that reference?
02:11:32.000 It's total recall.
02:11:33.000 There's no three-tidded women.
02:11:35.000 That's a good point.
02:11:36.000 See what I'm saying?
02:11:37.000 I'm with you.
02:11:38.000 We didn't conquer anything.
02:11:39.000 So the argument is we're talking about a nuclear reactor.
02:11:43.000 Oh, there's no argument.
02:11:47.000 We're talking about a nuclear reactor on the moon.
02:11:51.000 We're talking about a nuclear reactor on the moon.
02:11:53.000 And Elod, who is AI skeptical, was like, yes, this is a good idea.
02:11:59.000 And I replied with, well, if you, do you believe that we should go to Mars?
02:12:05.000 And he said, again, yes.
02:12:07.000 And then I said, well, what would you say to someone that says, look, the foundation for a human colony on Mars needs to be built by robots because the environment is so incredibly hostile.
02:12:20.000 On Mars?
02:12:21.000 So currently the plan, Tesla's plan, Musk's plan, is to use Optimus robots with AI.
02:12:21.000 Yeah.
02:12:28.000 No, not Prime.
02:12:29.000 Optimus Prime is probably a decade or two away.
02:12:33.000 But the Optimus robots that could actually go to Mars, he's planning, hoping that those are available and functional next year at the end of the year when the window to actually send a starship to Mars is open.
02:12:48.000 So he's planning on using Optimus robots to lay the foundation for, you know, and do two years worth of work because the window to send a spaceship to Mars only opens every two years.
02:13:02.000 So he's hoping to send a starship, at least one, possibly more, to Mars with Optimus robots to begin laying the foundation of a Mars colony.
02:13:12.000 So that way the next time the window opens, we can send the first manned crew to Mars.
02:13:16.000 So it'd be, if everything were to go perfectly for Musk, 2026, a couple starships go to Mars, land, and they start building.
02:13:25.000 And then 2028 would be when humans go to start working with, you know, I don't know how many it would be, but that's the argument.
02:13:34.000 So if the if the case is the AI is necessary to have those robots start doing the work, would you say that it's something that's pie in the sky or would you say it's something that's a worthy cause?
02:13:47.000 Because again, the reason it started is because AI a lot is AI skeptical.
02:13:54.000 I think I just saw an article where a guy got in a fender bender and his Tesla shut down and caught fire and he burned to death in his cyber truck.
02:14:05.000 So I'm going to say I'm skeptical because they asked the Tesla company what happened and they were like, hey, it happens.
02:14:14.000 So I'm going to say it probably can't be done.
02:14:18.000 Can't be done at all.
02:14:19.000 I mean, it could be done theoretically, but see, I believe the moon thing my entire life and now I think Kubrick did it.
02:14:28.000 Oh, you don't think we went to the moon?
02:14:29.000 I'm pretty skeptical now.
02:14:29.000 I don't know.
02:14:31.000 I'm not saying I don't, I don't know for sure.
02:14:33.000 I guess I shouldn't say flat out, I think Kubrick did it.
02:14:36.000 But now there's so many different stories that I hear that I now question it and I never thought I would.
02:14:41.000 So the reason I still believe, or one of the reasons why I'm shaggy carpeting in that rocket trip.
02:14:47.000 I believe that the, I believe that the, the, the whole of the space program was really about building accurate ICBMs.
02:14:57.000 Right.
02:14:58.000 It was intercontinental ballistic missiles.
02:15:01.000 So, a rocket is the same thing as an intercontinental ballistic missile.
02:15:06.000 If you can get a rocket to the moon and land it and get it back, you can definitely get a nuclear warhead to Moscow.
02:15:15.000 And I think that that was the motivating factor for basically the entire space race: being able to deliver nuclear missiles to Russia without having to put them in bombers and fly over the.
02:15:28.000 So, it's kind of like saying, Hey, Russia, look what we did.
02:15:30.000 And then Russia was trying to do the same thing at the same time.
02:15:33.000 The whole point of the space race was actually to be able to deliver nuclear weapons.
02:15:38.000 It was dick swinging.
02:15:39.000 Yes.
02:15:39.000 Yes.
02:15:40.000 Yeah.
02:15:40.000 Okay.
02:15:41.000 Well, well, if that's true, you kind of got my attention.
02:15:46.000 Here.
02:15:47.000 So, I think the bigger question here is that theoretically, if possible, do you think that Elon Musk would impregnate a robot if he could?
02:15:57.000 Oh, yeah, dude.
02:15:59.000 And then how many?
02:16:00.000 I don't think he'd stop.
02:16:02.000 Exactly.
02:16:02.000 So I think this should be our bigger concern.
02:16:05.000 If Musk is able to go through with all his robot projects and send in robots to Mars, they would all be Musk bots.
02:16:11.000 Okay, and he'd just be sending all of his impregnated people.
02:16:14.000 The United States should not base our interplanetary policies on Elon Musk's sex life.
02:16:22.000 You'd be surprised.
02:16:24.000 We should not do that.
02:16:25.000 Well, if he's the one sending the rocket, yeah, you can friggin smash whatever.
02:16:29.000 I don't know.
02:16:29.000 It kind of sussy made that like Annie or companion on X or whatever.
02:16:34.000 Like, that's super sus.
02:16:35.000 What is that?
02:16:36.000 I don't know what that is.
02:16:37.000 That's good.
02:16:38.000 It's the companion of the horny.
02:16:40.000 It's like Grok, but your girlfriends?
02:16:42.000 Yeah, the horny boy.
02:16:43.000 Yeah, it's the horny robot.
02:16:44.000 It's the horny robot.
02:16:45.000 But just the horny chat?
02:16:46.000 It's a chair.
02:16:46.000 Well, it's a robot.
02:16:48.000 She can't.
02:16:48.000 She doesn't actually.
02:16:49.000 No, no, it's not a she.
02:16:50.000 It's a robot.
02:16:51.000 It's a robot.
02:16:52.000 It's a lady robot.
02:16:53.000 It is a lady robot, but now they want to build him with personalities, and it's like, why?
02:16:57.000 You might as well just make it Helen Keller.
02:16:59.000 You don't need to get to know the thing.
02:17:00.000 I mean, Annie.
02:17:02.000 Have you ever met a woman?
02:17:03.000 Right.
02:17:03.000 Like, how about you just make it so it gets wet and it doesn't electrocute you?
02:17:09.000 I mean, these are the goals.
02:17:12.000 It's like a new space race.
02:17:13.000 I am of the opinion that I'm of the opinion that the main obstacle to actual sex robots is self-cleaning.
02:17:22.000 Once they can do that, then they'll be like, oh, okay, yeah, I'll buy it.
02:17:26.000 Yeah, once you get, don't get a UTI every time you have to.
