The FBI knew the entire time that the Hunter Biden laptop story was real. And then they imposed a gag order on one of their own analysts who tried to tell the public that it was. Plus, a story about $47 million in lost business in Seattle as people flee the city due to crime, and the DOJ is going to seek the death penalty for Luigi Mangione.
00:02:22.000The GOP has released chat logs from the FBI which show that the FBI knew the Hunter Biden laptop was real.
00:02:29.000And in a shocking story from the National Review, the FBI imposed a gag order on one of these agents who was trying to inform Twitter on the day of its release that, in fact, it was real.
00:02:41.000Intel officials, or personnel of some sort, were leaking to the press, notably the AP, that the story, in fact, was potentially Russian disinformation.
00:02:49.000And then 50 Intel officers, or individuals, which you're aware of, rushed to the press to claim the story was, in fact, fake.
00:02:56.000The FBI knew the entire time the story was real.
00:03:37.000Plus, we've got a MSNBC producer who's fled the country because of Donald Trump's fascism, and he's terrified Trump will pull his passport.
00:03:44.000Now, before we get into all that, my friends, head over to CastBrew.com and buy some delicious Cast Brew coffee.

00:05:36.000The day the New York Post first reported on the Hunter Biden laptop, the FBI told employees do not discuss the Biden matter and imposed a gag order on an analyst who tried to confirm the story's veracity to Twitter during a meeting, according to chat logs released by the House Judiciary Committee.
00:05:51.000An FBI official with the Bureau's Foreign Influence Task Force, Laura Demlow, previously testified that an analyst on call with Twitter confirmed the laptop was real, Before an attorney for the FBI told the social media platform it would not comment further.
00:06:03.000The chat logs show FBI personnel deliberating on how to handle the laptop situation.
00:06:07.000One FBI official instructed the rest to not discuss the Biden matter, and subsequent messages reiterated that order.
00:06:13.000After the meeting, the FBI placed a gag order on the analyst who was admonished by FBI staff for speaking up during the meeting.
00:06:19.000An FBI staffer lamented that the analyst won't sick shut up.
00:06:23.000As instructed, the chat logs show, the FBI has declined to comment.
00:06:28.000Now, here's where it gets interesting.
00:06:29.000Combine this with a story going back to, what's the date on this one?
00:06:35.000Titled, Biden email episode illustrates risk to Trump from Giuliani.
00:06:40.000Now, instead of the AP saying explosive emails leaked, they were claiming that Giuliani was a liability, writing a New York tabloids puzzling account about how it acquired emails purportedly from Joe Biden's son has raised some red flags.
00:06:54.000One of the biggest involves the source of the emails, Rudy Giuliani.
00:06:57.000Giuliani has traveled abroad looking for dirt on the Biden's developing relationship with shadowy figures, including a Ukrainian lawmaker who U.S.
00:07:04.000officials have described as a Russian agent and part of a broader Russian effort to denigrate the Democratic presidential nominee.
00:07:10.000Yet Giuliani says foreign sources didn't provide the Hunter Biden emails.
00:07:14.000He says a laptop containing the emails and intimate photos was simply abandoned in a Delaware repair shop, and the shop owner reached out to Giuliani's lawyer.
00:08:09.000The polls have shown that this laptop was very bad for Joe Biden.
00:08:12.000and There were several polls that came out showing, had people gotten access to the story, it would have changed their opinion on how they were going to vote by a couple percentage points.
00:08:21.000And that couple points was enough to win Donald Trump the election.
00:08:24.000I think it's fair to say the FBI was shutting the story down because they sought to empower, protect and push Joe Biden as president.
00:09:06.000I think everyone knew that when Krash Patel took over, the FBI was prepared for like a hostile takeover.
00:09:12.000But what they couldn't be prepared for is just leaking stuff to what they did.
00:09:16.000Stuff that was unambiguous, not like these hidden stuff, but stuff that they did in public and that they were never held accountable for.
00:09:23.000So I think this is just absolutely hilarious.
00:09:25.000And I think Trump is not going to stop because just recently when he talked about the pardons not being valid for Kinzinger and Liz Cheney, he's letting people know, I'm not letting you guys get away with what you pulled with me.
00:09:36.000So it's your sense that he's going to actually go after these people?
00:09:43.000I think he's very clearly being vindictive in the best possible way when he's pulling security clearances, when he's going after law firms.
00:09:49.000And he believes, and he's right, that if you're going to abuse your power, unless you have consequences for it, you're going to do it again.
00:10:17.000But if you're someone who's an FBI official, or officer, and that gives you a lot of status and heft, and you get to brag to all your friends, and you could be a lobbyist.
00:10:27.000If you're publicly disgraced, and you never spend a day in jail, that to me is enough of a consequence, and I'll take what I can get.
00:10:32.000You guys actually think the FBI would want a medal in our elections?
00:10:39.000Have they ever done such a thing before?
00:10:41.000I mean, the FBI and the CIA have been weaponized against the American people for maybe since they began.
00:10:47.000Maybe I'm crazy, but my view is largely that the areas surrounding, and tell me if I'm crazy, Michael, the areas surrounding DC are like the capital city in the Hunger Games where people don't really do real work.
00:10:57.000They're political operatives who get I think I'd tweak it a little bit because I really do think, especially under J. Edgar Hoover, I can't speak to more recently, they really regard themselves as above the presidency.
00:11:32.000The shocking part of the JFK files that was just different angles of Operation Mongoose for the CIA is secretly talking in rooms about destroying entire crops in Cuba with biowarfare.
00:11:41.000You know, it's not like they stopped doing that either.
00:11:43.000These guys are just extensions of the militant.
00:11:47.000And here's the other thing, like senators come and go, congresspeople come and go, presidents eight years, they're playing the long game that they're thinking long term.
00:11:55.000So they're much more entrenched as an aristocracy than any politician in a sense.
00:11:59.000So Donald Trump is, for now, what have we seen directly targeting individuals like this in the bureaucracy?
00:12:20.000You know, it does seem a little bit out there.
00:12:22.000But at the same time, if we went back in time and said, look, I know today Andrew Cuomo is America's governor, and he's going to be the replacement for Joe Biden in 2020.
00:12:32.000And I'm a Cuomo-sexual, is what Trevor Noah was saying.
00:12:35.000And then in a few weeks, he's going to be driven from office and no one's going to take his calls.
00:12:39.000And yet he's trying to return to power now.
00:12:42.000So I think a lot of the stuff that Trump is doing now, none of us saw it coming.
00:12:46.000The fact that he's repealing a DEI executive order from the Lyndon Johnson era, the fact that he's actually taking steps to dismantle the Department of Education, these are things we're like, look, I'll take what I can get.
00:12:57.000If he closes the border, brings down the budget, it's a win.
00:13:01.000So we're not even 100 days in, and this is all uncharted territory, in my opinion.
00:13:25.000And the idea that he would go away and come back, completely and totally outside of what most people would expect.
00:13:31.000Then the fact that he's actually carrying out a lot actually change what future presidents are going to have to do, because they're not going to be able to make these promises and just be like, oh, no, you know, I couldn't get it done.
00:14:01.000It's like, well, Donald Trump did, or at least try.
00:14:17.000I'm curious what you think, Michael, about with these deportations.
00:14:21.000When it comes to constitutional rights of individuals in this country, the reason why they extend in a limited fashion to non-citizens is because if the government was allowed to say, you're not a citizen so you're under arrest.
00:14:33.000Then the rest of the rights don't apply because they'll just use that as pretext every time they want to arrest you.
00:14:43.000The problem then is Joe Biden lets in 10 to 20 million illegal immigrants, many criminals, and Donald Trump is going to extreme ends to try and get as many as he can deported from this country.
00:14:52.000And they're trying to use that to stop him.
00:15:09.000He's encouraging people to self-deport.
00:15:10.000But in terms of like the Eisenhower level, which I can't even say the name of it, on the show, where they really rounded people up, what FDR did with Japanese Americans, we're not seeing anywhere near the numbers.
00:15:20.000So this, what we're seeing is the moderate position.
00:15:34.000Principled measures taken by previous presidents than what Donald Trump is doing.
00:15:38.000I mean, look at the FDR, you mentioned the internment camps, but the FDR...
00:15:42.000The presidency, the changes that FDR made just through executive order, the things that he tried, were completely unprecedented and changed the structure of the federal government in ways that people prior to FDR never would have believed and a lot of people would have totally rejected had it not been for the Great Depression.
00:16:12.000You could have your wedding ring and like some jewelry, but it was illegal for a citizen to own gold.
00:16:18.000And people hear this, they're like, ChatGPT, is he talking crazy?
00:16:21.000No, that literally happened and it was Nixon who overturned that.
00:16:24.000Yeah, so it's from FD for and it wasn't so it wasn't just a short period of time It was from literally from what night of 1941 or something like that when when FDR was elected I think he's 33 was he a sworn-in 33. Okay, so from 33 until until the 70s LBJ, right Nixon I think it was Nixon.
00:16:41.000So that wasn't that would yeah, it was in the 70s So that was you know, 30 years 35 years something like that and then five minutes before that in The money was redeemable in gold.
00:16:50.000Yeah. So if I had a dollar and it was worth that much in gold, I could go to any bank and say, give me this in gold.
00:16:55.000And it went from that overnight, basically, to you can't have gold at all.
00:16:58.000Yeah. The idea that the changes that Donald Trump Democrats tend to over-deliver though, to be honest. How so? At least I would say in my lifetime, to be fair, it's actually just one Democrat that I can talk about.
00:17:26.000Obama, he very much over-delivered on the amount of children that he killed and the war expansion.
00:17:40.000I mean, literally, the Obama administration did actually deliver something that the Democrats had been promising forever, even though it was a watered-down, terrible Policy, the ACA, was something that the Democrats have been talking about.
00:17:53.000It's not socialized medicine like they wanted.
00:17:55.000No, no, it ruined the market in the United States and it's terrible.
00:18:03.000He didn't give, you know, it is funny because what you get promised is not what they deliver.
00:18:07.000Right. But anybody who knows anything about what the presidents have done in this country for the past 30 years, Obama delivered exactly what was expected times 10. Trump is attacking the system.
00:18:17.000And that's why these people are going insane right now.
00:18:20.000I said last year I was on Rogan and we talked about how Joe Biden had a body double because there's some footage where it looked like Joe Biden was much taller than jail.
00:18:27.000And my thesis is this is Trump's body double because we sat through this guy for four years and this is a completely different person.
00:18:36.000Perhaps. Let's jump to this next story.
00:18:50.000Attorney General Pam Bonnie has ordered the Department of Justice prosecutors to seek the death penalty in the case against Luigi Mangione.
00:18:55.000Now the question is, We know it was a cold blood.
00:19:10.000The other question I have, of course, is will leftists venerate him as a martyr, as they're already basically doing, should they pursue this?
00:19:20.000And the risk is then, in any kind of escalation, this is a story that they would seek Quite like to inspire other extremists.
00:19:28.000Yeah, they're gonna bury him in a gold casket like they did with Floyd They make martyrs out of these people.
00:19:36.000I don't know that I was after him, right?
00:19:38.000I don't well, yeah, and they didn't know that that's Can I ask a question for everyone because I guess I know people their things are gonna be one or two things Here's the real good question And people hate these kind of questions, because like, would you rather have the flu or cancer?
00:20:30.000On a scale of 0, negative 100 to positive 100, where anything in the negative spectrum is villainy and is not heroic, Adding increments to it in any degree is more heroic than the other, then sure, we could put George Floyd at negative 50 and Mangione at negative 49. There's not a big difference between the two, in my opinion, but the question, I suppose, is that Mangione was driven by an ideological pursuit and George Floyd was just a drug user behind the wheel of a car.
00:20:57.000Sure. So it's not so much that it's heroic, it's that his actions were politically motivated, so...
00:21:08.000George Floyd wasn't intending to destroy the world.
00:21:10.000So if we're basing it on a scale of not the actions you took for ideological reasons but the amount of good you're doing in the world – Luigi Mangione is much, much lower on the scale than George Floyd was by simply George Floyd being a drug addict.
00:21:23.000So here, let's have this debate, because it's kind of a fun one, because I think everyone in this room agrees that Luigi Mangione should be in jail, and this guy's not a good guy, so we're all on the same page.
00:21:34.000But I think I will defend it when kids wear those Che Guevara shirts, because there's the idea of Che Guevara, and there's the reality of Che Guevara.
00:21:41.000Just like for boomers, there's the idea of Reagan and the reality of Reagan.
00:21:45.000Right? I think we all can understand that.
00:21:47.000The idea of what Luigi Vangioni did is very different from the reality because he didn't fix anything.
00:21:55.000The company didn't change their policies.
00:21:58.000No good, even by his own standards, follows the consequence except for a lot being taken and people, if anything, having more sympathy for the health care companies than before.
00:22:06.000But the idea that when things get horribly wrong, it falls on people to take direct action.
00:22:13.000I think that is a very American idea, and I think that idea has something to it, to speak very tactfully.
00:22:20.000Indeed, I do have to say it, unfortunately, but Michael, nobody can hear what you're saying.
00:22:55.000Let's get back to the point I was just making, though.
00:22:57.000There is something to be said, and again, we have to be very tactful because I do think it's dangerous when you discuss these things on a place with a big audience, because there are...
00:23:39.000So let's go back to the initial point of the debate.
00:23:42.000When I initially said Luigi, it was under this pretext of a man, as you're describing, driven to do something about what he perceives as a problem is more heroic than a drug addict.
00:23:50.000But when I actually map it out on a scale of goodness and heroism, George Floyd wins easily.
00:23:54.000The act of a guy sitting on a park bench with his finger up his nose is more heroic than Luigi Mangione.
00:25:53.000Broadly speaking, though, I think there's something admirable where someone is like, not him, in cases where like, the law failed me, I'm not just gonna sit on my hands.
00:26:02.000But you're talking about, if we step back from this story, Way back.
00:26:07.000Yes. To the point where there was a young man who said, I have been injured and ruined by this failed industry.
00:26:13.000Right. At that point, and he said, I will stop at nothing to fix this system.
00:27:16.000The guy who stole the purse and ran off, or the guy sitting on the bench doing nothing?
00:27:20.000Well, the issue is, on a scale from villainy to heroism, As you become more villainous, you're dropping lower on that scale, away from heroic.
00:27:29.000The guy sitting on the bench doing nothing is closer to a hero than the villain who stole the purse.
00:27:33.000The villain who stole the purse isn't being guided by any sort of principle.
00:27:38.000He needs the money because his daughter's sick and he has spytamiflu.
00:27:40.000Well, I mean, that's a very bad way to get money is some lady's purse.
00:27:44.000It's a very bad way to stop the healthcare industry.
00:27:47.000Sure, but my point is, I think it is...
00:27:53.000I don't know how to put this tactfully, and again, if people are going to hear that I'm defending him, I'm trying to take out the context of what he did specifically.
00:28:00.000I think, broadly speaking, America would be better served if more people were, instead of sitting on their hands, were like, this stops with me.
00:28:11.000And I think if more people did that in their communities, a lot less bullshit would be—oh, sorry, crap—a lot less crap would have gotten away with it.
00:28:22.000Developmentally disabled individuals doing random acts of violence that don't actually solve any problems.
00:28:27.000When I say be an active participant, I'm talking to our fans to literally go to a bar or a pub and sit down with like-minded individuals and organize.
00:30:06.000I think it's a good thing that I know that if poop hits the fan, I have to rely on me.
00:30:12.000I think that's very healthy for any man in this country.
00:30:15.000And the point I think you're getting at, what I'm trying to get at is, we are the people sitting at the bar saying, bro, we don't want to fight.
00:30:23.000Yes. And what could change everything is if the guy who walks in the bar looking for a fight, how about this?
00:30:31.000Deadpool. It's always gotta be a movie with me, I'm sorry.
00:30:34.000When the bad guys walk into the bar looking for Wade, and they shove that guy up against the wall, everyone in the bar stands up and points guns at the bad guys, and they say, okay, okay, okay, and they leave.
00:30:45.000Nobody will tolerate what you're doing.
00:30:47.000If during COVID, They said, we're locking everybody down.
00:30:50.000If everybody, not even everybody, if 20-30% just kept doing their normal daily business, nothing would have shut down.
00:30:56.000I'm going to take us two steps further.
00:30:57.000There was a video I saw, I think it was Brazil, where someone tried to rob a convenience store and like five people drew on him and made him into Swiss cheese.
00:31:05.000And a fan of mine retweeted, goes, this is the side I want to live in.
00:31:08.000And I Completely agree because as New York Giuliani shows I do not know because it's a small percentage of people making 90% of the problem Once you do that in like two weeks, everything is fine.
00:31:18.000Number one, but number two is I'm just gonna another point one of the things that stopped a Prohibition and this is not really they sweep this on the rug is enough police.
00:31:29.000We're having things done to them They're like I'm not doing this anymore So if that had happened in COVID, if enough cops were like, I'm not sticking my neck out for something I don't believe in, the politicians would be powerless.
00:31:40.000And my point is, I don't want to live in a society where a guy robs a grocery store.
00:31:51.000And we have to strive for a point where we are men of action, we are armed, we strike those against us, but no one dared do it in the first place.
00:32:05.000There was a story that I recorded for Today, it's actually gonna go up Friday, where they arrested a woman because her 10-year-old son walked to the grocery store.
00:32:47.000Yes. So ultimately my point is I really don't like that there are a lot of conservatives that venerate violence as though it is the choice.
00:32:59.000Like people say things like when we did the story on Tesla and the guy pulls in front of the lady and screams at her.
00:33:04.000And then I hear from people saying, I don't ever get lucky like that.
00:33:08.000And I'm like, bro, I'm sure there's a lot of combat vets that might have this mentality.
00:33:13.000Almost all the people I know who have been in life or death situations wished it never happened where they had to confront someone with violence in that way.
00:34:09.000It was one one person I've watched I've seen die got shot in Egypt and in Driving down the down the road going from New York to DC and There was a car accident years ago, where a guy flew out of the car, landed on the ground, and I saw him lift his legs, and it was what looked like, I'm sorry to be crudicrous, ground chuck.
00:34:30.000And the feeling that I got, there's no word for.
00:34:32.000And I think it's because most people in this country have never experienced that feeling of watching extreme graphic injuries right in front of them, but it was a unique emotion.
00:34:45.000And so when people glorify this stuff and make these jokes where they're like, I wish I got lucky and no you don't!
00:34:50.000It's funny, because when people yell at me, oh, you're an anarchist, like you want this, I go, no, no, no, I'm an anarchist, because this is the thing I want the least.
00:34:56.000I think when you have a society where it's a given that everyone looks out for each other on the street, you're responsible for your community, and so things like this, you don't have to, and the police, you have security that is accountable, and reliable, this happens less and less.
00:35:10.000Just on a practical level, like this, the conversation that has kind of revolved around the psychological toll that that takes on a human being when you see those kinds of things, Just on a practical level, even if you're psychologically a tough person, if you engage with someone like that, you're going to have to spend an immense amount of money defending yourself in most states.
00:35:30.000You're going to have to deal with all kinds of...
00:35:36.000And not to minimize what you guys are talking about, the psychological stress at all, but there is no positive that comes from getting into an engagement like that at all.
00:35:46.000I saw a body camera video from police.
00:35:59.000I don't think people understand the feeling you get and far be it for me to know.
00:36:03.000But I'm sure, again, there's probably some combat guys out there who are carved out of stone and are just Stone face in this, but the stories I hear from most people is, it's a feeling you don't want.
00:36:15.000Can we talk about this at some length?
00:36:16.000Because I've been thinking about this for a while.
00:36:23.000We have this story that was posted today to r slash conservative from an individual, and maybe this is not true, but I think the story is more likely to be true than not.
00:36:31.000But again, take it with a grain of salt.
00:36:33.000This guy says, This is how you lose the average vote.
00:36:36.000It's cartridge crusader 23, a top poster on the conservative subreddit.
00:36:41.000He said, the leftists who are now attacking anyone who owns a Tesla are starting to affect people I actually know.
00:36:46.000My friend's father has owned a Tesla for years, long before all this Elon Musk hysteria kicked off.
00:36:51.000And he's definitely not someone I'd describe as a MAGA Republican by any stretch.
00:36:54.000He's a kind, older guy, an Air Force veteran who now flies for Southwest Airlines.
00:36:58.000He was driving in Arizona, minding his own business, when a random motorcyclist cut him off.
00:37:03.000Pulled in front of his car at a four-lane intersection at a red light, kicked his bike stand, and started approaching the vehicle while yelling.
00:37:10.000That's when my friend's dad pulled his handgun to deter the guy from attacking his car.
00:37:15.000The gentleman then proceeded to pull out his phone, record the vehicle, and prevented him from leaving the intersection when the lights turned green.
00:37:44.000Most of the people who are having this happen to them, they're probably not recording the videos and posting it.
00:37:47.000They're probably sitting there dumbfounded like, I can't believe someone threw a rocket in my car.
00:37:50.000The other thing to point out is, this guy, according to the story, pulled a gun.
00:37:55.000And if these leftists keep up their attacks, some have been mass shootings.
00:37:59.000The guy in Vegas, with a rifle, fired into the air at the building, fired into the building, and then into vehicles, before throwing firebombs.
00:38:07.000Someone is going to get seriously hurt.
00:38:11.000This is what my concern is, because the right is not calling for this, not advocating for it, and even on shows like this, we keep saying, please, you do not want the violence.
00:38:44.000Gary. This city, the photos from Aleppo.
00:38:48.000It is kind of funny that this is a great example of this, and Gary Johnson didn't know.
00:38:54.000But just to clarify, the photos of Aleppo, of this beautiful town, normal shopping district, cars and fountains, and then you do a side-by-side and it's rubble and ash.
00:39:06.000Well, just the people that talk about, you know, wanting that kind of conflict here, they need to understand that what it'll look like is cartel violence in Mexico.
00:39:46.000So one of the reasons I wrote my last book, The White Pill, which is about the story of the rise and fall of the Soviet Union, is I'm very disturbed, and I'm sure everyone here agrees, with the fact that Yeah, absolutely.
00:40:03.000it better that the Cold War ended peacefully?
00:40:06.000Absolutely. And, like, you know, everyone kind of went home and things didn't work out that well for Russia.
00:40:11.000as opposed to, like, invasions, thousands of civilians killed, people made orphans, you know, dismembered, maimed, and so forth, like World War I and World War II.
00:40:20.000And I thought it was just very sad that that story isn't told and this happened within, you know, our lifetimes.
00:40:25.000I also, to your other point, it's just, I know a lot of guys who are veterans, everyone here I'm sure does as well, and they do not ever think this stuff is like, yeah, more war.
00:40:38.000I had Meghan McCain on my show, obviously John McCain's daughter.
00:40:52.000She goes, because my brothers have all deployed.
00:40:55.000And now they're like the most anti-war people ever.
00:40:58.000And they're like, they'll do anything to avoid war.
00:41:00.000She goes, When I hear from them, she's like, I know this means something.
00:41:05.000And when you talk to all of us who talk to veterans, they don't when they're talking about people they've killed, they're not like, hell, yeah, like some of them are maybe that's a bit of like pride.
00:41:13.000But then on some level, everyone who talks about this, it's not easy.
00:41:55.000When we have critters on the property, it's like...
00:41:59.000The the local laws require My understanding is that if there's a raccoon in the property it has to be put down Because of their rabies vector How many how many people actually want you know what let's let's not even go there How many people actually wanted to kill and slaughter the chickens to eat them right?
00:42:17.000It's remarkable to be how very few people don't even want to do that right now.
00:42:21.000I got to be honest I have no problem going to a farm and saying, I got one of my chickens from Chicken City, it is food.
00:42:59.000But I think most young people don't experience this.
00:43:02.000And then what was really, really crazy to me was, as I started getting older, as most people already know, and who are older than me, people start dying more and more and more.
00:43:10.000I asked Roseanne about that in this show, yeah.
00:43:29.000So there's a lot of younger people who have experienced less death.
00:43:33.000And then I think for the older people who tend to be more experienced dealing with conflict crisis, this is why I think a lot of young leftists are so gung ho on violence.
00:43:43.000For one, the young guys are either bored, faithless, or full of testosterone.
00:43:49.000And then when they get older, and they watch a bullet fly through the head of their best friend while they're at war, it changes their perspective on things when they come home.
00:43:55.000And leftists in America were rewarded for their violence just a few years ago.
00:44:02.000But I got to counter this, because there's a story I saw recently, which has been haunting me for weeks.
00:44:07.000So there was this mom, I don't remember where it is, I saw this on YouTube, one of these true crime things.
00:44:11.000A mom had two kids, two teenagers, one was like, let's say 13, one was like 17. The 13-year-old was only allowed to sleep in this little, not even a cubicle, under the stairs.
00:44:23.000He was forced to sit with his hands on his head for hours with motion detectors.
00:44:27.000If he moved at all, they threw him in an ice bath for hours.
00:44:32.000The only food he was allowed to eat was bread with, like, the hottest hot sauce, and they just tortured this kid, and then eventually it was an end to him.
00:44:38.000And I read this story, and I'm not a tough person.
00:44:41.000I'm not pretending to be a tough person.
00:44:42.000I'm probably the least tough person in this room.
00:45:09.000What this made me realize is that when we talk about evil in this country, there's two types.
00:45:13.000There's the kind of thing like, I robbed a bank, I'm a murderer, you know, I assaulted a woman, which we could all understand the logic there.
00:45:24.000But stuff like this, where it makes no sense, things that are being done to kids, we hear these people, CNN producers getting arrested for videos of children, I'm not even going to get into it.
00:45:33.000But it's also like, this is a kind of evil that is completely alien.
00:45:37.000It's very fundamentally different with someone who's even just like an armed robber.
00:45:40.000Yeah. My concern always comes down to structures of government and why I want to just say, look, I think the best outcome we have is calm and collected law enforcement or whatever form that takes.
00:46:28.000You encounter a scenario where you go into a house, and there's a kid being tortured, and you see a man, you know, standing in the living room, and then you say, ah, and you attack him, and it turns out that was the neighbor who just showed up hearing the kid's cries or what to say.
00:46:56.000Because there's other families that hit kids and bury them, like have them in their basements for 20 years.
00:46:59.000Oh God, I didn't even think about that.
00:47:01.000The point is that it's handled by a system of law enforcement, or judiciary, or if it's a small community, then there is a common, rational decision.
00:47:11.000Are you familiar with the story of Gellert's grave?
00:48:19.000His faithful hound, Gellert, walks up with blood dripping from his mouth.
00:48:23.000Angry that Gellert had slain his son while he was away, he draws his sword and thrusts it into the side of his hound, who lets out a dying whelp, which awakens his child.
00:48:32.000Waylon then flips over the crib to find his son completely healthy, and next to him, the wolf that was slain by Gellert, who saved his son's life.
00:48:41.000And they say, after that day, he never smiled again.
00:48:49.000We have to keep cool heads about these things.
00:48:51.000Sure. But what I'm saying is, there's many cases where the cool head is like, all right, justice is not prevailing situation.
00:49:00.000And in the United States, they brought back, I think, the firing squad in Alabama.
00:49:04.000Because our laws determined that there are some people who have been found guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of crime so horrific, they have forfeited their lives.
00:49:16.000Something people say and everyone seems to smile and nod and I'm sitting there I'm like, how do I not understand this because this is one of those stories.
00:49:49.000Isn't this the first person you'd give the death penalty to?
00:49:51.000Because there's no possibility that this guy will ever be allowed on the streets safely?
00:49:55.000As opposed to someone who's like, okay, I did something horrible and maybe I can't be allowed on the streets, but at least I can, you know, advocate to people in jail and preach to kids and learn from my story.
00:50:04.000I never understood why that would be the last person you'd want to give the death penalty to.
00:50:07.000There's the moral and there's the mechanical functions or issues pertaining to the death penalty.
00:51:16.000Well, I mean, if you believe in the death penalty.
00:51:18.000But the argument is that person can't be allowed in society again, so they shouldn't be let go, but killing them is immoral because they didn't understand what they were doing.
00:53:47.000Great. I was thinking about this earlier today with Trump derangement syndrome, Elon derangement syndrome, Tesla derangement syndrome.
00:53:54.000I'm like, I think there's a certain point we just need to create a different word that encompasses the fact that the liberal cult are typically deranged.
00:54:01.000So Trump derangement syndrome does not get at it.
00:54:05.000But hold on, but Trump derangement syndrome is not exclusive to liberals.
00:54:09.000Indeed, but I think that overwhelmingly those who are suffering TDS are suffering EDS and TDS squared.
00:54:53.000And one of the best things is I turn to her, I go, isn't it great being in a country where you know people aren't going to bring up Trump for no reason?
00:54:59.000And I think that's a key part of TDS, is no matter what you're talking about, somehow the conversation revolves around Trump.
00:55:07.000That hasn't happened with Elon or Tesla.
00:55:48.000This was the This is basically just the conversation I've been having over the past several weeks, and we actually just had a moment ago on The Green Room Show, which you can watch on rumble.com slash timcast.io.
00:55:58.000I don't actually think these isms, for the most part, and these ideas matter as much.
00:56:07.000An individual who's a communist, it's not one-for-one, it's not one day you go, I'm a communist, and then you instantly are rigidly in line with everything all communists believe.
00:56:15.000So the real issue then is just this gradient of amoral to moral in the way that we view it.
00:56:24.000So when this guy says they're fascists, he exemplifies exactly what my point is.
00:56:46.000If you read the Antifa, this is what's fascinating to me, I like reading what other people have to say, because I'm like, let me understand the thought process, maybe I'm getting it wrong.
00:57:11.000To be fair, I have not read that in a very, very long time.
00:57:13.000But the point is, what kind of logical leaps do you have to do That Franco is less of an authoritarian than Trump, who's the worst thing he did is was bitched and moaned for four years that they stole the election from him.
00:58:22.000And he hated being called that, but he was one of the original organizers of Occupy Wall Street.
00:58:26.000Okay. And he wrote this great, that you'd think he was a leftist, but he wrote this thread before he died, that the left has adopted the ethos, there is no truth but power.
00:59:31.000Yes. Arrest the Maryland legislature sympathetic to the Confederacy.
00:59:33.000Suspend habeas corpus between here, Pennsylvania, and D.C. Lock up journalists.
00:59:38.000Threatened to arrest the sitting Supreme Court Justice for threatening to defy me.
00:59:41.000On his march to the sea, General Sherman gave the okay to slaughter all the freed slaves that were following him because they were annoying him.
01:00:27.000Cause one of my big policy positions is that they should seize all university endowments, which are the crystallization of privilege and distribute that money as reparations.
01:00:36.000How do you, as an anarchist, gonna reconcile the government seizing all this money?
01:02:18.000You want to send black people to live in the woods?
01:02:20.000No, no, they'll own the property, they'll get to live in the woods.
01:02:22.000They can do whatever they want with it.
01:02:23.000But we take it from the federal government, break it up, and give it to the descendants of slaves.
01:02:28.000I don't care if you're white, black, Latino, whatever, you got a slavery ancestry, we got a parcel of land just for you because I don't want the federal government to have it.
01:02:34.000I don't care who else gets it, but if this is a compromise that gets us there, I'll take it.
01:02:37.000I think the only reparations for slavery is enslavement.
01:02:45.000The real problem with reparations is that they're impossible.
01:02:48.000Because the population expansion is exponential, and the descendants of slaves now exceed the amount of land available to repair them, as was the 40 acres and a mule.
01:02:58.000But that 40 acres and a mule would have been reparations either, to be fair.
01:03:00.000No, no, I know, but at the time they were like, we'll give you this, and they didn't, and that's the argument they're making, the advocates for reparations, and I'm like, right.
01:03:07.000And now there's an exponential expansion of the descendants of slaves, substantially more.
01:03:11.000But what's even crazier is that the reparations that they're talking about in California, California was never a slave state, they're getting the reparations for like, you were discriminated against in housing.
01:03:18.000It's like, wait, wait, wait, like, I've gone for apartments I didn't get, I do not get like, become a millionaire.
01:03:39.000So let's not argue what the government is not arguing and simply say they've accused him of being of distributing or being aligned with Hamas.
01:04:11.000In this regard, Donald Trump, his administration, can use any legal justification they want for removing someone so long it's codified, so long as they don't say certain words.
01:04:18.000Sure. It makes literally no sense to operate this way as a country.
01:04:30.000I mean, I had Francis from Trigonometry on my show, And he was talking about how it's crazy that people are going to get fired for their views.
01:04:38.000And I'm like, I don't think it's crazy at all, because I said, everyone in this room, there's people at certain views.
01:05:06.000If I had a white business, and I want to hire these educated or hardworking black people to work for my company, and I could pay him pennies on a dollar, because no one else is hiring them, I legally couldn't.
01:05:17.000So it was forcing people to be prejudiced as opposed to letting a more liberal order, and then very quickly it would fall apart because it's going to be very hard to discriminate against people, those of whom are bringing great value to your company, which many of them would.
01:05:41.000Last week, the mayor of Seattle announced the Emerald City collected $47 million less in payroll taxes last year as large companies continue to flee the liberal oasis.
01:05:48.000According to the Seattle Times, the mayor of Seattle City Council expected the tax haul to be $400 million.
01:05:54.000Instead, the city brought in only $360 million in 2024.
01:06:31.000Seattle city government says everybody pays their taxes, the businesses say, yes sir, thank you sir.
01:06:34.000But when someone throws a brick through your window, sets fire to your cars, or in other ways just terrorizes you for your political beliefs, they're going to say, maybe we should go somewhere else.
01:07:02.000Right. West Virginia was blue for a long time.
01:07:08.000Yeah, and even right now, again we were talking about this earlier, with the Uber laws, West Virginia is still fighting to counter.
01:07:15.000Bro, I gotta tell you, under the Democrat leadership— Hold on, I'm now triggered, because this is a conservative talk that drives me crazy.
01:07:23.000There are no Republican cities either.
01:07:25.000Like, all cities are run by Democrats.
01:07:27.000Some Democrats run it better, and some Democrats run it worse.
01:07:30.000The only example they can think of is Giuliani, and in any other context, people call him a rhino.
01:08:08.000Obviously, there are some Republican areas that are not as good.
01:08:10.000But I think it kind of misses the point because if all cities are leftist, which I think everyone agrees, why are some cities thriving and some aren't?
01:08:18.000So if they have something in common, it's some secondary characteristic that's going to make some work and some work better than others.
01:08:48.000And I think the important way to look at it is, when you make this surface-level joke, the meme, Show Me a Ghetto, I'll Show You a City by the Democrats, That's a very surface-level way of understanding leftist ideology leads to chaos and destruction, right ideology leads to creation.
01:09:00.000There's the joke about what the socialists use before they use candles, light bulbs.
01:09:04.000Yeah. And I gotta say something else that surprised me, and this is kind of a detour that there's no point, but to your hometown, I went to Chicago for my birthday last year and all my friends were like, good luck, you're not getting shot.
01:09:48.000And in L.A., my friend was staying in Beverly Hills, and they warned her, when you get out of the hotel, you know, just don't have stuff in your car.
01:09:55.000I was surprised at Chicago's reputation.
01:09:58.000We walked around a lot, that it felt a lot safer than New York, where I walked around.
01:10:21.000I say post-80s because Juliana came in in 93. Yeah.
01:10:25.000Like maybe like 95. Because when he first came in, I remember being on the subway, you couldn't listen to your headphones because there would be groups of kids that go through subway to subway, they'd shake you down and they'd rob you.
01:10:36.000And it would just- Yeah, that's Chicago.
01:10:53.000Yeah, Chicago, I would argue, having grown up there versus living in New York for five years, New York was ridiculously safe compared to Chicago.
01:11:04.000So I lived on the southwest side and I'd go to bed and I don't know, maybe like a couple, maybe once every couple months you hear gunshots ringing out.
01:11:14.000Someone gangbangers shooting somebody nearby We all knew somebody like the high school fight people brought guns.
01:11:20.000Okay, uh My buddy I was on the phone with him when I was like 16 and he lived on 63rd in California And he said yo, I I saw two guys dragging a carpet with legs sticking out the next day They found a dead body in a carpet.
01:11:34.000Sure. So I've been shot at randomly for no reason and Me and my brother were driving off of Independence on 290, we took a left, and a guy just pointed his gun at us, bang, and fired at us.
01:11:44.000I'm not at all in any way diminishing your lived experience, I'm just saying that I was surprised as a New Yorker how safe I felt in Chicago this past summer.
01:11:52.000The point I'm trying to make is not that my lived experience is being diminished, it's that you had a comfortable experience in a wealthy neighborhood, but if you actually went to any of the actual regular neighborhoods, you probably would have been like, holy crap, this place is...
01:12:03.000I noticed in Manhattan, like around the 2010s, The violence started to spread everywhere.
01:12:09.000Yes. Even in places that- Death in de Blasio.
01:12:40.000I'm just saying, as a New Yorker, former New Yorker, I was surprised that there would be localized violence in Chicago, because in New York it's not localized.
01:12:49.000That there would be any safe areas given Chicago's reputation.
01:15:14.000I don't want to get too much into it, because I don't want to have the gangs try to murder me.
01:15:18.000Sure. Or the people I know in Chicago, so I don't usually get into it.
01:15:21.000I was explaining to the guys from Vice, because they did a documentary series in Chicago, I was like...
01:15:26.000They came back to the office in Brooklyn, and they were like, look at this thing we're working on, and they showed me an early cut or whatever, and I was like, whoa.
01:15:32.000I was like, what's your guys' security plan?
01:15:38.000And I was like, you embed with a gang in Chicago, you put their words into action, You say their name, you put the words from your mouth, they say, that's the guy and they're going to kill you.
01:15:51.000So a big thing people don't understand about the Gangs of Chicago is that a lot of the violence is based on honor and respect.
01:15:57.000And so it is known, to those of us who grew up there, if a documented film crew embedded with a Chicago gang, you have just told the other gangs, I'm at war with you.
01:16:07.000I am giving them power, press, money, resources.
01:16:34.000Okay. But I always tell people, like, So anyway, my point is, maybe in the Uncensored show I'll mention a little bit more, but Chicago's a crazy place.
01:16:42.000It's the kind of place where you think you're in a nice neighborhood and a car pulls up and they say, what you is.
01:17:28.000But they'd see you and they'd be like, Why are you wearing those clothes here?
01:17:31.000I remember D.L. Hughley, I worked on two of his books, and I learned a lot from him.
01:17:35.000And he talked about when he was growing up in South Central, they had some kind of bill or what do you call it when they vote on a referendum, or the governor basically pulled money for school buses.
01:17:57.000Yeah, I've had friends who Got roughed up because they were wearing clothes they weren't supposed to be wearing.
01:18:01.000Like just literally like a 15-year-old kid wearing gym shorts and a jersey and they pull up and they run up to him and they start punching him.
01:18:07.000I remember that being very prevalent in the 90s, but you think it's still like that in Chicago right now?
01:18:30.000There's part, there's area of Chicago, these areas have names, where...
01:18:36.000So, I once, when I moved to the suburbs, when I was like 18, I met a bunch of the guys out there, and I became friends with some skateboarders, and I told one of my buddies, like, let's go, let's go skate in Chicago, and he's like, let's ride.
01:18:48.000Got in my car, so I drove through one of these neighborhoods, and there's, on every corner, Maybe they care a little.
01:19:17.000Well, no, it's like if you're walking in that neighborhood.
01:19:19.000You know, to be honest, it's not always like that.
01:19:24.000If you walked into that area and walked up to those guys, they'd probably start busting out laughing, rob you, and then say, get out of here, white boy, what are you doing?
01:19:31.000But if you went up there with any kind of, hey man, you can't do this to me, then they'd be like, we'll show you what we can do to you.
01:19:37.000And so I had a friend, this girl from my neighborhood, walked into one of these neighborhoods when she was like 17, and like a 60-year-old black guy walked up to her and stopped her, physically grabbed her and said, young lady, you're gonna turn around right now or you're gonna die.
01:19:51.000Like that's how these neighbors are like.
01:19:54.000Yeah, I grew up right next to Newburgh Newburgh, it's like a small city in New York.
01:19:58.000Oh, yeah, like that was when I used to do really bad things We go to Newburgh to get those things and just imagine like early 2000s for super pale goth looking kids rolling through Newburgh to get it like a dime bag But it was fun.
01:20:11.000We never had a problem I think only once was one guy chased out with like an automatic gun.
01:20:14.000Well, this is the thing about cartels when You know why you're safe in Cancun or Tijuana?
01:20:22.000You go down there, you don't gotta worry about crime.
01:20:28.000If American tourists get hurt, American tourists stop coming.
01:20:32.000I grew up in Bensonhurst, and back in the day, it was an Italian mafia neighborhood.
01:20:38.000And even though New York at that time was not a safe place, you better believe Bensonhurst was very, very safe.
01:20:44.000There's this story about a hotel, casino, somewhere in the Yucatan part of Mexico or whatever, And, uh, there were two female tourists who got kidnapped and killed, and then the, uh, American tour stopped going.
01:21:00.000Immediately, all the business dried up, so the cartel found the two guys who did it and flayed them alive.
01:21:05.000Jesus. And made sure everybody watched, everybody knew they did it.
01:21:11.000But they were basically like, we were making millions of dollars per year off of Americans coming and buying our stuff, and you destroyed everything.
01:21:23.000There's a thing about the cartels, man, operating in the United States, it's so freaky.
01:21:26.000When Anonymous was big in like 2010, there were a couple of Mexican Anonymous guys who were trying to go after the cartel, saying like, we'll expose you.
01:21:36.000A few days later, their bodies were hung from a highway sign.
01:22:07.000Money? This is what people gotta understand.
01:22:11.000People are not crazy for the most part.
01:22:13.000Meaning, sometimes you will encounter a gangbanger in Chicago who's like, I'm gonna kill this person.
01:22:20.000There's one gang I won't name where their initiation requirement is that you murder somebody.
01:22:25.000And if you live in their territory as a child, and you're growing up, you have to join the gang.
01:22:30.000So what they do is they go to this kid, and they say, we got somebody, here's a gun, go do it, you'll get out when you're 18. And I actually know people who have gone through that.
01:22:38.000And they go to Juvie until they're 18, they get out, and they got shot.
01:23:51.000He was complaining They were complaining that there were dwarves and so they changed the dwarves to the Companions and the companion people were like bandits the bandits they did it.
01:24:01.000Oh, they were like then they were like, okay We have to get rid of the band.
01:24:04.000So the my point being there were multiple Problems with the actual storyline.
01:24:09.000And then, once the movie was finished, Rachel Ziegler was terrible for promotion.
01:24:15.000She was saying things that were completely polarizing.
01:24:17.000Whether or not- like, your opinion- I- I- I gotta- I gotta pause you, Phil, because I think you glossed over the most important part.
01:25:25.000And I was at that age where you start understanding, okay, dinosaurs are real, dragons are fake, unicorns are fake, snakes are real, ninjas are real.
01:27:27.000There is no moment where Snow White defeats the evil queen.
01:27:29.000The prince doesn't defeat the evil queen.
01:27:30.000She literally goes on a mountain and gets struck by lightning.
01:27:32.000The prince has no idea what happened, and he just walks up and says, hey, here's some beautiful woman.
01:27:35.000Like, she's my true love, I'll kiss her.
01:27:36.000And she wakes up, and they're like, wonder what that was all about?
01:27:39.000In this Snow White, she joins the bandits, fights the guards, makes it back to the city, where she challenges the evil Queen and reawakens the spirit of the nation by reminding them of their names.
01:29:29.000Why would I want my child's neurological pathways to be built around looking at a screen of anthropomorphized animals who do not exist, and starting to build an identity around things that are not real?
01:29:39.000When I gave you Dianetics, it was a joke.
01:29:52.000My friend Steph, who I went to Japan with, this is one of my favorite stories about her.
01:29:55.000When she was like five or six, she'd watch these live-action shows, and the person in a Mickey Mouse costume or a dog, And she'd be like, why are they talking that person a dog suit if it's a dog?
01:31:23.000Sure. The expansion of media, the population expansion, meaning, uh, the meme is this.
01:31:28.000Uh, in 1990, a man says he wants to, he's hot for toasters.
01:31:35.000Okay. A guy smacks him on the back of the head and says, shut up, you weirdo.
01:31:37.000Right. 2024, he says he's hot for toasters, goes online, finds a community of toaster lovers, and now he's going around with a group of people at a toaster convention.
01:32:08.000Okay, first of all, all the prince did was say, like, it's my house, you can't come here, lady.
01:32:13.000And so she tries to, you know, destroy his life and everything he has.
01:32:16.000The servants who are just working jobs are cursed to be ridiculous objects.
01:32:20.000Basically, one day you show up for work and you're like, look man, I don't know, all I do is I clean the floors and you get turned into a mop.
01:32:26.000And that's like your existence forever until that guy learns to love.
01:32:46.000One of the things I've always talked about doing with short films is making them from the perspective of, like, a realistic perspective.
01:32:52.000Like, imagine if you did Beauty and the Beast, but the people were all normal, right?
01:32:57.000So, Gaston is fine being an arrogant blowhard, sure, but he's not bouncing his pecs and eating dozens of eggs.
01:33:02.000He would just be a guy in a bar laughing and boastful, right?
01:33:05.000He hears that there's a gigantic monster that kidnapped a young woman, and he says, okay, we gotta go free her.
01:33:11.000Not only to kidnap her, It kidnapped the dad, who was welcomed in.
01:33:16.000Then, when she came to save her dad, imprisoned her, because it wants relations with her, Gaston was right to rally the townspeople to go stop that guy.
01:33:24.000But the movie is propaganda, and they make him look like the bad guy.
01:33:36.000After the fight, when the beast tries to help him, he stabs the beast.
01:33:41.000Even though the fight is already over and then falls to his death.
01:33:44.000If he didn't do that, the story is really just, there's some blowhard arrogant guy in the town who thinks he's all that, hears that a monster kidnapped a young lady, who he likes by the way, and he says, we can't tolerate this.
01:34:31.000There is a video that went viral of these like 10-year-old kids speaking in the 50s about post-World War II, and they sound like they're in their 50s.
01:34:39.000Was it an Atlantic accent or something?
01:35:01.000Sure. And so, they were told to act like adults.
01:35:04.000There was no blues clues or bluey or weird garbage being jammed in these kids' faces.
01:35:09.000Anybody, if you don't have kids, and you don't look for this stuff, you go on YouTube and look at what's being given to kids and tell me that stuff makes sense and you want your kid to ingest it.
01:35:19.000And also people don't realize the concept of teenager only happened in, what, the 50s?
01:35:22.000Indeed. It's a very recent historic phenomenon.
01:35:26.000To respect the privacy of my friends, I'll keep the story as vague as I can, but I had a friend who was telling me that their children must watch a particular kid's show on YouTube, otherwise they get mad.
01:35:35.000And I said, how does your child know that show exists?
01:35:42.000God help those kids if they don't have the show.
01:35:46.000The story of an anthropomorphized beanie advocating for civil war.
01:35:49.000My kid is going to be taking care of chickens.
01:35:53.000Doing chores, doing work, and I think people need to really understand, and they really don't, handing off that tablet to your kid is giving them a portal to help.
01:36:25.000Although, to be fair, when Picard is challenged by Q about his quest to Farpoint Station, and he's like, let's try and ram through him anyway!
01:36:33.000I was like, dude, a powerful force is threatening to kill your people, and literally just froze a guy, seemingly to death.
01:36:40.000At this point, you contact your superiors and say, we've encountered a devastating force we're retreating.
01:37:31.000I'm surprised you're getting any pushback, because every single person watching this has gone down a YouTube algorithm rabbit hole, and you end up being like, why am I seeing this?
01:38:01.000The algorithm was just autoplaying the next video.
01:38:03.000Right. So whatever had the most keywords had the most watch time.
01:38:07.000And the comments are all gibberish because the babies would hit the screen and comment gibberish.
01:38:11.000They were doing to the babies what they're doing to, uh, in Clockwork Orange.
01:38:14.000Yep. There's going to be a generation of people who are severely disabled because of this.
01:38:19.000Yes. Because this was like three or four years.
01:38:21.000So there's a kid who was five years old and the parents gave him the tablet and he's sitting there looking at it and he's sitting there staring at it.
01:38:27.000He goes through this for three years, he's eight years old, and the only thing he can think of is Adolf Hitler with breasts doing Tai Chi with the Incredible Hulk.
01:38:36.000That's not a joke, that's actually one of the videos that was continually going viral.
01:38:40.000Were these videos basically AI randomly generated?
01:38:46.000I remember I saw this channel where it's just like, I don't even understand like how it got all these views, like what the rest of the journey, it would be like a beach and there's a fish head Sticking out the sand and then eel comes out the fish's mouth.
01:40:27.000Well, YouTube ended up getting rid of it as a huge scandal.
01:40:32.000I should try and find my video from my 2018 YouTube.com slash Timcast where I originally had it.
01:40:44.000Because this evolved to the point where they were little chibi cartoon characters where they were doing things like peeing each other's mouths.
01:42:46.000I think what it is, and I can't wrap my head around this, it's that people in this country for over a century are content to have the government raise their kids for them.
01:42:55.000And conservatives yelling about, like, open the schools again.
01:43:00.000Don't be surprised when People who despise you teach your kids to despise your values.
01:43:05.000Real complacent outsourcing their parenting.
01:43:08.000And what the teachers were doing were telling the students your parents are trying to hurt you, you've got to keep these secrets, and they were scared.
01:43:13.000And then they made the parents into enemies.
01:43:16.000Evil. We're gonna go to your chats, my friends, so smash that like button, share the show with everyone you know.
01:43:21.000Are you gonna share the cartoon you made of Mean Rose Dan?
01:43:23.000Well, yeah, let's show that on the uncensored portion.
01:43:26.000Okay. And the video, the clip of Mean Rose Dan paying up.
01:45:05.000You know what's really sad is, for Watchmen, Alan Moore wanted to use the DC characters, and they wouldn't let him.
01:45:10.000Yep, and what's even funnier than that is my mentor, Harvey P. Carr, God rest his soul, from American Splendor, he went on a book tour to promote his work when the movie came out, and he calls me when he gets back from Europe, And he goes, when he was in Scotland, he had met with Alan Moore, and I gasped.
01:45:43.000And it's really kind of stupid because people don't realize this, there was a bunch of characters that Charlton Comics had, they short-lived in the 60s, DC acquired them, they were sitting on the shelf for like 20 years, Alan Moore's like, hey, let me do this story with them, revitalize them, they're like, nah, and it's like, they never ended up doing anything with those characters anyway, so it's just like, it's dumb.
01:46:58.000One of my favorite DC moments is, I can't remember what it's from, one of the movies where the question discovers that Lex Luthor is like gonna run for president or that he's doing something untoward.
01:47:09.000And then he's in Luther's office rummaging through everything and Luther catches him and he's like, I know what your plan is, Luther.
01:47:16.000You're going to win the presidency and you're going to take over.
01:47:18.000And Luther says, do you have any idea how much power I would have to give up to be the president?
01:47:39.000It's a, I believe, I haven't read the details of it, but it's something along the lines of it bans semi-automatic rifles and the wording basically allows them to ban any, arbitrarily ban any Yeah.
01:49:26.000But I do think one thing we could do is just maybe we put Clarence Thomas in the Genesis device to de-age him by 40 years and then let him just stay on forever.
01:49:35.000I think he wants to get in the RV and just roam the American highways.
01:53:31.000The story is about a group of people who were oppressive in the past, and so they've been placed on an island to be punished because they're the oppressors.
01:53:38.000Okay. And when they actually—they think the world is destroyed because they're being held prisoner.
01:53:43.000The giant monsters are there to keep them in prison, and then when they finally start getting out, they realize there's a whole industrialized world, and they're viewed as evil white people.
01:54:51.000Okay. He's a high school student, and there are death gods.
01:54:55.000The death gods have notebooks, they have books, where they write the name of people, and whatever's remaining life on that person gets added to their life total, so they're immortal.
01:55:04.000There's a death god who gets an extra book through being mischievous, tricks another guy or whatever.
01:55:09.000Oh no no, what happens is, they're not allowed to use the book to save the life of a human.
01:55:13.000Okay. And so one other death god is infatuated with a human, and sees her about to get murdered in a mugging, so he kills the mugger, and then disintegrates.
01:55:22.000Ryuk, the Death God, takes the book and drops it in the high school for fun to see what happens.
01:55:26.000And the scholar student finds it, and then decides to start murdering every single criminal in all of the jails and anyone accused of crimes.
01:55:33.000And they call him Killer, or in Japanese, Kira.
01:55:35.000So he just watches TV and starts massacring.
01:55:38.000Do they know who's doing it, or it's just happening?
01:55:40.000People just having heart attacks and dying.
01:55:42.000He intentionally chooses the way of dying to be the same, so that everybody knows there's a pattern happening.
01:55:47.000Sure. But then it turns into, uh, this is really great, The story kicks off when a broadcast appears on all the TVs saying that the international community has taken notice of the deaths around the world and that they're going to find out who is doing this.
01:56:02.000And the guy sitting at the desk, his name is displayed.
01:56:04.000Then all of a sudden the guy giving the announcement has a heart attack and dies.
01:56:08.000And then the screen changes to just the letter L, the name of the actual detective, and he says, I can't believe it.
01:56:13.000You actually can kill people just by – remotely.
01:56:16.000And then he explains, we traced the origin of the first death.
01:56:20.000It's in this particular prefecture in Japan.
01:56:22.000We know where you are and we're going to find you.
01:56:23.000And so then the high school student is like, oh, crap.
01:56:26.000And then it becomes this like game of chess between a detective and this young kid who has the ability to just murder anybody he wants.
01:57:56.000There was a hot dog restaurant that when Trump got elected, they released the Trump dog, which was this tiny wiener.
01:58:03.000Chicago's, you know what's really fascinating is that growing up in this town, we got Jardin Aire for days, and there's a hot dog restaurant in every corner.
01:58:17.000Yeah. I go to New York and I'm like, you can only get a hot dog on the street for a buck from some guy in a cart, but they don't sell it in stores.
02:01:28.000I think the question, I think we've discussed this on the show before and something that's, I think, an enjoyable question for people to ask.
02:01:58.000So the argument against remote working is you get When you have time together, you'll bounce ideas off each other more regularly and you'll have creative ideas.
02:02:11.000Like I think Ben Shapiro talks about the liberal tears mug that they've sold bajillions of.
02:02:17.000That came because they were standing in the office or something like that and someone said it or whatever.
02:02:23.000But the point is the proximity mattered.
02:02:25.000And when it comes to You can watch us discuss the bet with Roseanne.
02:02:50.000Indeed. That was a fun one, Michael. You can find me online at Shane Cashman.
02:03:11.000I host Inverted World Live every Sunday on YouTube and Rumble, and I gotta shout out to Hotepps for having me at the grifties last weekend.
02:03:18.000It was a blast, and keep an eye out for that video soon.
02:03:21.000Michael, you're always an absolute delight to be around, and I'm not kidding.
