On today's show, we have a special guest on the show, Adam King. Adam is a podcaster, writer, podcaster and podcaster-in-chief. He's been with us for a long time and has been a part of the podcaster community for a good portion of that time. He joins us to talk about a variety of topics, including: - Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin's upcoming summit in Alaska. - What's up with the grocery stores in Kansas City? - Is it time to get rid of municipal grocery stores? - What does it have to do with the New York City Mayor's campaign? - And much, much more!
00:01:02.000The redistricting drama continues with Governor Gavin Newsome from California saying that California is going to draw congressional maps that will end the Trump presidency.
00:01:57.000And also, municipal grocery stores in Kansas City have failed.
00:02:01.000And we'll see how that is going to relate to the talk of municipal grocery stores in New York City should Mom Donnie win the mayoral campaign.
00:04:24.000Do you have like the there's do you take their swazis and hang them up on your on your wall to show all the all the Nazis that you've I want my Nazi scouts there you go there you go uh all right though it's gonna be a good time tate's here yeah what's going on everyone Tate Brown producer Tate we're hanging out we're having a good time we're on the gauntlet this the triple crown did the morning show the PCC now IRL so uh might be the same tomorrow.
00:05:23.000All right, so we're going to jump into it right now.
00:05:25.000From ABC News, Newsom says California to draw a congressional map to end Trump presidency.
00:05:31.000I believe that's probably hyperbole, but we'll go ahead and talk about it.
00:05:35.000California Governor Gavin Newsom said California will move forward with drawing new congressional maps that he said will end the Trump presidency and allow Democrats to take control of the U.S. House of Representatives.
00:05:46.000Donald Taco Trump, as many call him, missed the deadline.
00:05:50.000California will now draw new, more beautiful maps.
00:05:53.000They will be historic as they will end the Trump presidency.
00:05:57.000Newsome wrote Tuesday night in a post written in the style of President Donald Trump's occasional, occasionally all-cap social media post.
00:06:05.000The announcement comes amid Texas Republicans' effort to redraw congressional maps in their party's favor.
00:06:09.000The redistricting showdown in Texas has led blue states to threaten to retaliate with Newsom proposing to cut five GOP-held seats in California.
00:06:19.000The redistricting battle in tech, it's hilarious, isn't it?
00:06:22.000It's like, yes, the big threat of all of the Republican seats in the state of California.
00:06:26.000I mean, that's something that's what we've been kind of talking about and making jokes about around the table.
00:06:32.000How are they going to squeeze more Democrat seats out of largely Democrat state, right?
00:06:41.000Like, I think there's at least five that are all Democrats, right?
00:06:45.000No Republicans, no Republican representation in Congress at all.
00:06:49.000Massachusetts, Maryland, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut.
00:07:43.000Still the title holder from 2014 to the present.
00:07:49.000But that I ran for Congress because they redistricted my neighborhood at the time, which was the southern part of Beverly Hills, and they redistricted it into Compton because the Orthodox Jews are very conservative.
00:08:02.000So they and they go by street by street.
00:08:04.000You know, they're very meticulous about how they do these gerrymanderings.
00:08:08.000And it's just the erosion of democracy.
00:08:11.000And he thinks it's going to help him win a presidential election in 2028.
00:08:15.000Yeah, that's my sense, too, is this whole thing here with Gavin Newsom chiming in.
00:08:19.000This is really just about Gavin Newsom figuring out if it's a good idea for him to run for president.
00:08:26.000And remember, it's only gerrymandering when Republicans do it.
00:09:37.000But I mean, you know, that's kind of the situation with them.
00:09:42.000All their marketing, their anti-Trump marketing just feels so like they were sitting around at a table at a marketing agency in New York and they were like, guys, taco, the Middle America is going to love this.
00:11:44.000And now they're investing $20 million to figure out to win back the white men.
00:11:49.000All of the stuff that was leading up to the election, all the marketing that the Democrats were doing leading up to the election really kind of was just be dishonest, be a bad person, lie to your spouse.
00:12:03.000It was just all of the most repulsive things that you could come up with.
00:12:08.000And they were like, this is how you should, this is how you should vote, or this is what you should do.
00:12:13.000And any normal thinking person is like, this doesn't make any sense to like anyone that has any sense of morality.
00:12:37.000It's hyperbole, obviously, but if they're saying end Trump's presidency, they just mean like lose the House that they don't have any power going into the second half of his I think what's being implied is that the Democrats take the House, then they can impeach Trump because that has been the stated goal.
00:12:57.000Everybody knows that he should be treating his presidency as if he's only got two years anyways because they have to operate under the premise that they're likely going to lose the house.
00:13:06.000Well, even then, like, I mean, the house hasn't been particularly useful.
00:13:08.000I mean, the big beautiful bill is great, but beyond that, everything's been done through executive order or other mechanisms the executive has.
00:13:16.000So, I mean, it's not, if we lose the house, I mean, it's going to be tough, but it's not necessarily the end of the world.
00:13:22.000There's a lot of mechanisms at Trump's disposal.
00:13:24.000I think you're totally right about the functional presidency.
00:13:28.000I think that he'll have, he'll still do essentially the same things that he's been doing, use the executive, the office of the executive to put as many of his policies in place as he can.
00:13:37.000It's just going to be more garbage from lawfare.
00:13:42.000which is not that is not popular with the American people.
00:13:45.000Well, it's not so much the risk isn't so much not having the Republicans there.
00:13:49.000The risk is having the Democrats there because the Democrats are going to try and gum up the system as much as possible.
00:13:54.000The Republicans are just warming up the house for you.
00:13:56.000I mean, the Big Beautiful bill was a big deal.
00:13:58.000Don't get me wrong, but I mean, it's not like, you know, we're just passing legislation left and right right now.
00:14:04.000What happened with the decision to redo the census?
00:14:41.000And especially in liberal places like the Pacific Palisades, where the average house was like $5 million and now doesn't exist anymore, where homelessness is out of control.
00:14:51.000It's just, it's actually kind of crazy that he thinks that this is going to go over well with the voters who are already so disillusioned by everything that he's done.
00:15:00.000And they're supposed to be putting low-income housing in the Palisades too now, which is, of course, people said was a conspiracy theory, but obviously they were going to do that.
00:15:27.000Yeah, you'd think that that would really do serious damage.
00:15:30.000You'd think it'd make him a lame duck.
00:15:32.000I mean, I don't know about a lame duck, but I mean, you'd think that there'd be a lot of people that would be like, hey, this was warned about before.
00:15:43.000But this goes over really well with the Democrats.
00:15:45.000I think the base does, but don't you think that this actually is going to have a negative opinion or negative effect on Newsom's popularity?
00:15:51.000He's already gotten a lot of crap from your average Californian.
00:16:11.000You know, it's just like the problem is like the demographics since 2000 have just completely changed.
00:16:16.000I mean, the electorate now, it's yeah, I mean, it's tough to find someone that's been in the country for more than like a generation or two compared to 2000.
00:16:45.000Well, you know, I'm not going to argue with somebody that successful.
00:16:49.000I mean, it is true that Newsom does have to spend a bit of political capital here because it will require a special election to redistrict in a way that's especially favorable.
00:17:40.000They are so have been awakened and they want justice and revenge.
00:17:44.000And don't put it past a rich person to vote for Donald Trump or a Republican or anybody to get even, especially after they've lost their house and the insurance won't cover it and it's a mess.
00:17:54.000That's one of the things that I'm thinking of.
00:17:56.000They were promising that there was going to be permits Right away.
00:18:00.000There was going to be a lot of effort put in to make sure that Pacific Palisades can rebuild, et cetera, et cetera.
00:18:09.000You know, the worst thing about this, Phil, is that now, because some people still had their mortgages and all sorts of things going on, a lot of these people have sold to foreign companies.
00:18:25.000That's what the conspiratorial mind says that they actually wanted.
00:18:30.000Now, all of a sudden, the greatest properties in Los Angeles are being bought, guzzled up for top dollar, and nobody can compete, and nobody can build their house back.
00:18:42.000And the Coastal Commission and Pacific Palisades, they're going to expedite these Chinese new properties when they didn't allow anybody to build for like the last 30 years.
00:19:32.000The place where Democrats cheat the most is in Democrat-controlled states.
00:19:38.000That's when they're adding on massive amounts of votes to the popular vote to try to make the illusion that Hillary Clinton got three more million votes than Trump.
00:19:48.000But the real issue that nobody wants to talk about is that Rick Caruso, he never wanted to be mayor of LA.
00:19:57.000They're going to get these two people to go head-to-head.
00:19:59.000And he bailed so quickly as within a couple hours of election night, he tossed his candidacy because he got all these crazy contracts.
00:20:08.000And now him and Karen Bass together are showing a unified front where the billionaire makes buco billions off of all the government Section 8 housing and Karen gets to be mayor.
00:20:20.000That's who I ran against actually in 2014: Karen Bass when she was congresswoman from District 37.
00:20:37.000Trump told Zelensky from NBC News, Trump told Zelensky and allies he won't discuss territory divisions with Putin this week.
00:20:43.000Sources say: Washington, D.C., President Donald Trump told European leaders during a call on Wednesday that he does not intend to discuss any possible divisions of territory when he meets with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska this week, according to two European officials and three other people briefed on the call.
00:20:59.000Trump said on the call, which also included Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, that he is going into the meeting with Putin with the goal of securing a ceasefire in Ukraine, those sources said.
00:21:09.000Trump and European leaders agree that a ceasefire in Ukraine has to be implemented before peace negotiations can begin.
00:21:15.000The European officials and two other people briefed on the call said, some of the European leaders were left with the impression from the call that Trump is not optimistic about the results of his meeting with Putin, they added.
00:21:26.000The call on Wednesday took place just days ahead of Trump's meeting with Putin, which is planned for Friday.
00:21:32.000European and Ukrainian officials have been nervous about the president's meeting with the Russian leader since he announced it last week.
00:21:37.000Among their concerns is that Trump and Putin might agree to the parameters of a peace deal, including territorial divisions, and then try to pressure Ukraine to agree to it.
00:21:45.000Trump's comments last week that there would be some land swapping between Russia and Ukraine in particular put Zelensky and European leaders on edge.
00:21:52.000I understand that Donald Trump doesn't want to say that there is going to be any kind of land given up to Russia, but I don't see how he's in a position or Ukraine or NATO are in a position to force the issue.
00:22:11.000Yeah, I mean, well, I mean, for one, Ukraine is going to call a formal session of Crimea.
00:22:16.000They're going to call that a land swap.
00:23:09.000It was my understanding before reading this earlier today when we were getting ready for the show that Donald Trump was looking to basically see what Putin wanted, that he was going in with a totally with no preconceptions about what was going to happen.
00:23:22.000Well, he put Putin on the back foot because he ramped up arms shipment back to Ukraine the last few weeks.
00:23:28.000A lot of people were upset with that on the right.
00:23:30.000But from Trump's position, this is the way he negotiates.
00:23:32.000This is the way he's always negotiated, is he wants to put max pressure on the party that he's negotiating with.
00:23:38.000And so from his perspective, he knew that he's eventually going to have to have a chat with Putin in the near future.
00:23:43.000And so he's like, okay, well, let's redirect some arms to Ukraine.
00:23:45.000Let him let you can't negotiate from weakness.
00:23:48.000I mean, that was the problem with Biden, like with the Afghanistan withdrawal, for example, is you can't negotiate from a position of weakness.
00:23:54.000So it's like you do have to shore up your position, even if it's a position you want to get out of.
00:23:59.000You still have to negotiate from strength, and that's what Trump's attempted to do here.
00:24:02.000If I understand correctly, Vladimir Putin had initiated some more offensives in Ukraine this week in the past couple of days in response to moving in of arms to Ukraine and prior to meeting with Trump.
00:24:18.000If he's actually taking aggressive actions before this meeting even happens, I can't imagine that there's going to be some kind of agreement to a ceasefire.
00:24:29.000I think that he's just going to show up and be like, well, there's combat going on right now.
00:24:41.000This isn't the first time that negotiations have been floated and there's like active combat going on, but this would be the first time, obviously, that Trump and Putin would meet during the war strictly on American soil, strictly over a ceasefire.
00:24:54.000But I don't think like, I mean, there's not going to be, there's going to be combat until a ceasefire is signed, obviously.
00:24:59.000And Putin's trying to respond to Trump.
00:25:01.000I mean, Trump is showing aggression by rearming, or not rearming, but arming Ukraine further.
00:25:06.000So he has, I mean, he has a safe face to his people.
00:25:09.000I mean, that's just how that's how this works.
00:25:12.000Putin's going to win in an argument with Trump just by doing what he did with Tucker, which is just start talking about just five hours of talking about the history of Russia.
00:25:20.000People were like, whoa, is Putin playing games with Tucker?
00:25:22.000I was like, I think you just underestimate the autism of Eastern Europeans.
00:25:50.000So from the Times, Russia and the United States have discussed a model for ending the war in Ukraine that mirrors Israel's occupation of the West Bank.
00:26:05.000Under this scenario, Russia would have military and economic control of occupied Ukraine under its own governing body, imitating Israel's de facto rule of Palestinian territory seized from Jordan in 1967.
00:26:16.000So are they talking about Donbass here?
00:26:21.000So this is the map that they're showing.
00:26:24.000So Wytkov, who also asked, who was also tasked by Trump with bringing peace to the Middle East, is understood to support the idea, which the Americans believe circumvents barriers in the Ukrainian constitution to ceding territory without holding an all-Ukraine referendum.
00:26:40.000There's not going to be a situation where Russia is going to give back Crimea, right?
00:26:51.000And any argument to the contrary would need to be backed up with military force.
00:26:58.000But also, let's not forget that these people Chose to be a part of Russia.
00:27:02.000Unlike the Donbass, where Russia came in and took it, even the Donbass, they wanted to be a part of Russia.
00:27:09.000That's what the whole conflict started, was the Donbass wanted to be a part of Russia.
00:27:13.000Crimea, it was like a 91% referendum vote to join the Russian Federation.
00:27:19.000I'm not super up to date on the context, but I believe the argument made by Ukraine was the Russians were moving people into Crimea.
00:27:30.000And they were like, oh, well, look, now there's more Russians than there are Ukrainians.
00:27:34.000There are more Russian speakers than there are Ukrainians.
00:27:36.000So we should take it because these people that they moved in over the previous decades or whatever say they want to be a part of Russia, which I don't give a crap.
00:28:06.000And in this book, he basically says the premise that a lot of nations have arbitrary lines as their borders.
00:28:15.000And unless a border follows some natural configuration, like a mountain range or a river, it will be contested and there will be a war there.
00:28:24.000If there's an arbitrary line, all it takes is a certain amount of people to move to the other side of the line and it's done.
00:28:31.000And in the case of Ukraine, after the division, after the Cold War, Crimea is pretty much like the entire control over the Black Sea.
00:28:40.000It was Russia's main hub to be able to be in the Black Sea and to go between the seas.
00:28:48.000And then also, the Donbass and like the entire Ukrainian, like if you go from Moscow, like there's just like wide open space.
00:30:02.000So they go on to say, President Zelensky has refused to countenance handing over land, but the occupation model may be a mechanism to allow for a truce after three and a half years of war.
00:30:12.000Under the model, Ukraine's borders would not change, just as the borders of the West Bank have gone unchanged for 58 years.
00:30:21.000It'll be just like Israel occupies the West Bank, the source said before Trump's summit with President Putin in Alaska on Friday, with a governor, with an economic situation that goes into Russia, not Ukraine, but it'll still be Ukraine because Ukraine will never give up its sovereignty.
00:30:35.000But the reality is it'll be occupied territory and the model is Palestine.
00:30:39.000I feel like this article is really just trying to drive the point that the Palestinians are occupied.
00:30:45.000Let's just divert from this story and focus on Palestinians.
00:30:49.000Yeah, drawing comparisons probably is just to try to make people feel some kind of sympathy for both situations, likely to say that the Ukrainians, both the Ukrainians and the Palestinians.
00:32:15.000And then after that, that's when it started to get pretty tense with Iran and it became kind of clear that there was going to be some sort of conflict.
00:32:22.000So he Irish goodbye, and then all of a sudden we're dropping missiles.
00:33:01.000Yeah, I mean, it could have also been a situation where the Trump admin realized that a strike was going to happen inevitably.
00:33:08.000So it just felt like you're going to be able to do that.
00:33:10.000Did you say that the Trump admin realized?
00:33:13.000I mean, wouldn't that be the decision of the Trump admin?
00:33:15.000Yeah, they decided that they were going to have to strike at some point, or maybe not have to, but they needed to strike or they felt it was in their interest to strike.
00:33:30.000I think it's fine that the U.S. blows up nuclear facilities in Iran.
00:33:36.000Yeah, I mean, I don't have the intel they had, but that's an old story.
00:33:40.000I'm just saying in the context of the negotiations, it could have been after the third talks that they had, because they had, like, what, six scheduled.
00:33:46.000After the third talks, the Trump admin's like, look, we're not getting anywhere.
00:33:49.000We're going to have to strike him at some point for whatever reason.
00:33:53.000And so they're just like, all right, you can just, you know, these negotiations are just these talks are just, you know, going through the motions.
00:33:59.000That could have very well been what happened.
00:34:01.000And that's why Witkoff, the talks seemed to have broken down after the third, the third round of negotiations.
00:34:10.000The Iranians, you're getting a story from their state media.
00:34:15.000And it's like, okay, if he showed up late, left early, and that's from the Iranian state media, and then there's nothing from Western media.
00:34:24.000I mean, there's no way to vet it entirely.
00:34:27.000Yeah, I mean, look, I'm not in the habit of trusting Iranian state media.
00:34:30.000You know, I mean, every, every, basically every nation state has some level of propaganda that they're going to put out, you know, or you're at least going to get a story that is fairly pro whatever country that it's coming from, generally.
00:35:31.000We're going to jump to this story, bring it back home from the post-millennial.
00:35:35.000Trump admin to ask Congress to extend federal control of DC COP past 30-day limit.
00:35:41.000President Donald Trump stated his intention to extend the federalization of the Washington, D.C. police force, telling reporters on Wednesday he will be asking Congress to pass a crime bill on the matter, extending it beyond the 30-day time limit.
00:35:53.000Trump said he would be seeking long-term extensions from Congress via a crime bill that would allow him to continue his efforts on cracking down on crime in the nation's capital.
00:36:01.000The bill will pertain initially to D.C., but serve as a very positive example for other areas of the country, the president said during a press briefing at the Kennedy Center.
00:37:19.000It's horrible what he's doing, but let's let him do it because I still want to go to dinner past 8:30.
00:37:24.000Yeah, the Atlantic this morning had a similar piece where they were like, Trump's right about D.C. It was like just them just like mad for three pages.
00:37:34.000There's like the, so I watched this show called Two-Way.
00:37:36.000Mark Halperin has he said, he says that he doesn't live there, but he has family there, and they don't go out at night.
00:37:42.000And it doesn't matter what neighborhood you're in because you're only a block away from a bad neighborhood or two blocks away from a bad neighborhood.
00:37:51.000For the longest time, it was the homicide capital of America.
00:37:57.000Judge Jeannie did this whole thing on it where she was just documenting everybody under the age of 19 who was killed and they're all black.
00:38:33.000So if you actually do want to do something about crime and about black people dying, this is what you need to do.
00:38:41.000You need to have the police go in to the area and have a presence walking around and they need to arrest people and they need to deter crime.
00:39:47.000It's that their hands are tied and their DAs will not enforce police.
00:39:51.000That's been going on longer even than, say, George Floyd in 2020.
00:39:55.000Those DAs have been refusing to prosecute certain cases and tying the hands of the police.
00:40:00.000And then there was a referendum in however many of the last few years on broken windows policing and on stop and frisk and all that stuff.
00:40:08.000And the more tools that were taken away from the police, the worse crime got in a lot of these places.
00:40:13.000But those were discussions that used to be had in good faith.
00:40:17.000And nowadays they're just used as political bludgeons.
00:40:19.000Like there was a time when you could have that discussion, probably because you had the benefit of living in a time where there's less crime because these things were being done, where a more liberal person is saying, like, maybe we're infringing on the rights of people.
00:40:32.000And I think that that's a fair conversation to have.
00:40:47.000Yeah, and I'm much more worried about criminals infringing the rights of normal people to live than I am of potentially infringing the rights of someone that buys 30 priors.
00:40:57.000Honestly, Bukele has demonstrated the overwhelming majority of people just want to get on at their day and they don't want to deal with these people that have nothing to lose.
00:41:18.000And it's probably, you know, I don't know exactly how many it is, but it's probably not more than a few hundred people that are actually really bad, you know, maybe five, six hundred people that are out there committing crimes regularly.
00:41:30.000And if the police go in and wrap those dudes up and put them in jail, crime will fall.
00:41:36.000That is something that has happened forever.
00:41:40.000If you go and enforce the law, take the criminals off the street, they will, you know, the situation in the area will get better.
00:41:48.000I think broken windows policing is a great idea.
00:41:51.000It's shown to work in every place that it's been tried.
00:41:55.000You prevent small crimes, and then the big crimes don't happen.
00:42:00.000You have to take the criminals off the street.
00:42:02.000And I think that this is actually going to end up being a really big win for the Trump administration because there are so many people that, you know, just like we were saying earlier, Democrats are begrudgingly saying, well, yeah, it kind of sucks.
00:42:15.000There's a lot of crime in D.C., et cetera.
00:42:17.000You get off the metro and you got some homeless guy touching himself in public or whatever.
00:42:23.000Suffocating and it's just, it's not something that anyone anywhere wants to deal with, and it shouldn't be something that we have to deal with in the capital city.
00:42:35.000And let's be honest, I'm from California.
00:42:38.000You guys are more local to D.C. than I am.
00:42:40.000But when I show, I go to D.C. quite regularly.
00:42:43.000And as an American, I want to show up in my nation's capital.
00:43:18.000It should be a world-class city, right?
00:43:20.000There should be Michelin star restaurants that people can safely go to.
00:43:25.000You should be able to walk from your five-star or four-star hotel to a very nice restaurant, go to a museum, which there are tons of museums in D.C. You should be able to walk to these places.
00:43:38.000You shouldn't have to make sure that you're avoiding certain neighborhoods or whatever.
00:43:58.000Yeah, you've got like the most importantly people in the entire world.
00:44:01.000Even though you have to having international tourists, I mean, I don't want my country to be reflected like this.
00:44:05.000That's exactly what people were saying.
00:44:06.000It's the same thing that happens in other states when, you know, somebody's in Hollywood and they host some award show and they have to clean up the homeless people off the street so that the celebrities don't have to walk over them.
00:44:17.000Yeah, I mean, well, that's what happened in San Fran when Xi Jinping came to town.
00:44:37.000And the problem that you have in D.C. is you have like this like non-permanent resident class that every admin, every four years, all these houses all of a sudden become available.
00:44:46.000All these, you know, this is a constant migration of people.
00:44:51.000So like moving forward as Americans with DC, we can't just treat it as like this place that only politicians live.
00:45:19.000Another thing I saw Tom Homan make a comment on it that he's going in there in these 30 days.
00:45:23.000He's going to clear out every single illegal and strip the place bare.
00:45:27.000You're going to only have red, white, and blue in D.C. But when these 30 days are done, look, the more difficult it is, and I've said this a bunch of times in the show: the more difficult it is for illegals to live in the United States, the happier I am.
00:45:40.000Tax remittances take, make sure they can't get jobs, make it illegal for them to rent, make sure that they can't find places to live so that way they leave of their own volition.
00:45:50.000But I don't want to get off on a tangible.
00:46:52.000And like they would have pulled the ad.
00:46:54.000How much of the media, how much like the commercial media is pulled because of some like toxic media manipulation, social engineering, and nobody cared to begin with.
00:49:05.000I do like, there is a degree of accessibility with the Trump admin that I love because I remembered like three months ago on like A non Twitter circles where people were like, we should just federalize DC.
00:49:18.000And then three months later, it slowly trickles its way up the ladder until it gets into the Trump badminton.
00:49:23.000The Trump badminton's like, this could solve a lot of problems.
00:49:26.000So it really does feel like that the Trump admin has their ear to the base.
00:49:30.000Like they understand what we want, what we're asking for.
00:49:34.000Obviously, there's a lot of disconnect.
00:49:35.000I mean, like, we're having to, you know, go crazy about amnesty every month.
00:49:40.000But like, Generally, what happens, you'll see it on Twitter, and then like two, three months later, the Trump badminton figures are discussing it.
00:49:46.000I also don't think he would have done this in his first term because he would have been too worried about re-election.
00:49:51.000That and he had a den of jackals around him who basically their entire job was to attack him to the center as much as they possibly could, where now he has guys, he's surrounded by guys that not just reinforce what his ideology and what MAGA means, but guys that actually bring something to the table, guys that are assets, really, that are that are tools.
00:50:18.000The Google, oh, yeah, from the New York Post, Google has caught flagging GOP fundraiser emails as suspicious and sending them directly to spam from a memo.
00:50:29.000Google is at it again, and GOP campaign donations could be a casualty.
00:50:33.000The search giant has been caught this summer flagging Republican fundraising emails as dangerous spam, keeping them from hitting Gmail users' inboxes, while leaving similar solicitations from Democrats untouched, a consulting firm warned.
00:50:47.000That's despite repeatedly sparking headlines and lawsuits in recent years over allegedly partisan practices.
00:50:53.000Last year, a federal judge tossed a lawsuit filed by the Republican National Committee that complained of bias email filtering.
00:50:59.000In 2023, the Federal Election Commission dismissed an RNC complaint alleging discrimination in Gmail spam filters.
00:51:06.000Nonetheless, Targeted Victory, whose clients include National Republican Senatorial Committee, Rep Steve Scalise, and Senator Marsha Blackburn, said it observed that the serious and troubling trend was still going on as recently as June and July of this year.
00:51:21.000Gmail has been flagging emails containing links to the fundraising platform Redwin and in many cases sending them directly to spam, according to a copy of the memo to clients exclusively obtained by the Post.
00:51:32.000Meanwhile, Targeted Victory conducted tests in which emails containing links to the Democratic fundraising platform Act Blue were delivered without issue.
00:51:53.000Like, how much longer are we let ourselves get bullied and all these conservative, all the conservative press will fire up and be like, this leftist hypocrisy.
00:52:04.000And it's like, we know, like, actually respond with some fire.
00:53:39.000I mean, granted, this is a private company.
00:53:42.000So it's not the same thing as the example that I'm going to bring up.
00:53:45.000But I mean, even as far back as 2012, when the IRS was targeting conservatives, conservatives Lois Lerner and the IRS scandal thought.
00:53:55.000Yeah, she was going after Tea Party organizations and stuff.
00:53:59.000And they always say, oh, well, you know, look, there were a couple Democrats, so it wasn't actually targeted, or they actually got a couple Democrat organizations, so it wasn't actually targeting conservatives.
00:54:12.000This is something that the conservatives should be able to use the levers of power in the government to do something about.
00:54:23.000Because now, with the Trump administration and in the executive branch and having both the House and the Senate, they have the power.
00:56:52.000You have to trust yourself because, like you said, the Democrats will use every tool that they have at their disposal.
00:56:58.000You can't be worried about like my principles.
00:57:01.000Like, that's what's gotten us into this mess is the MA principles people.
00:57:04.000Like, John Doyle makes this point all the time, and it's so true.
00:57:06.000It's like, you know, most conservatives, if they had their way on principles, like we'd all be facing the wall and they'd be in a conservative be like, man, can you imagine if we did this to them, how upset everyone would be?
00:57:17.000Because that's just like, that's how they view power is like, they're just so petrified of them.
00:57:22.000Even though they turn around on all that, look what happened in COVID.
00:57:25.000I mean, they're not afraid to ruin your life.
00:57:31.000And the base that Trump has formed now, especially, like you said, building out cabinet and people around him that are comfortable actually putting through what he believes is that his base understands that in the past, Republicans have been unbelievably ineffective and too scared to do anything about it, which is like the joke is always a Republican is just a Democrat going the speed limit, which is in a lot of ways for many decades was absolutely true.
00:57:55.000And now, and it didn't even matter because even then they would have called you a Nazi and they would have called you a fascist for whatever you tried to implement.
00:58:01.000And you would have said, no, no, no, but I wouldn't do that to you.
00:58:44.000I mean, look at what they're doing with Mumdani in New York, who talks all the time about the issues with this country and not, you know, not issues as in these are the plights that the average everyday American is facing, but the issues that have plagued this country since its inception because it's bad to begin with.
00:59:00.000Yeah, I mean, yeah, he's not talking about like a bad bill.
00:59:02.000He's talking about like identity, something that is intrinsic to American identity is evil and wrong.
01:00:14.000He had made a great observation about the Cuomo versus Mamdani thing.
01:00:18.000What you're really seeing is 20th century New York versus 21st century New York.
01:00:22.000And it's like, okay, if you can, you know, summon this war chest, if you can really build this war chest out to defeat Mamdani and get Cuomo in there, you're just delaying the inevitable by four years because Cuomo's New York is gone.
01:00:34.000Like that era that he came from and that city that he came from is gone.
01:00:41.000You're going to get nothing but Momdani's going forward unless you make some.
01:00:45.000It's almost like the only way to save New York is to let it be destroyed.
01:00:48.000Well, you can't do that because it's the unfortunate.
01:03:07.000Trump ended up backing Cox for governor in California.
01:03:12.000Like the institutional Republicans, C-A-G-O-P, and the GOP anywhere, it's almost like when it comes to Republicans, when it comes to Republicans, it's like whoever is the best, everybody go for it.
01:03:27.000Whoever is best will choose the best one.
01:03:29.000Democrats, they will like groom people for years.
01:03:33.000Be like, okay, you're going to run in five years in this race.
01:03:36.000And they know exactly where they're going.
01:03:40.000And that just shows you how our ideas win amongst the public because we have no strategy in all these races.
01:03:46.000You don't think they could have put anybody but Curtis Lilwa?
01:03:50.000This is the only time Republicans probably had a chance in New York.
01:03:55.000And the only one that they could get is Curtis Lilwa, and none of the Republicans even want to support him.
01:04:00.000So the party just like ignores the situation.
01:04:02.000They're like, I mean, the Republicans have been kind of ignoring New York for ages, right?
01:04:07.000I mean, until recently, until Zeldon ran for governor, Kazeldon actually came within like eight points, which in New York is fantastic.
01:04:14.000So I think the national GOP is not worth sinking money into.
01:04:19.000There's much more competitive, like New Jersey would be worth actually investing in, and they are.
01:04:23.000I mean, New York City, it's not going to happen, especially with Sliwa.
01:04:26.000I mean, they fielded Nicole Malley attack us a few years ago in the New York Mayo race.
01:04:30.000She got stopped and she's probably the best, you know, at least name recognition-wise, best candidate they've had for Republicans in a while.
01:04:36.000She might have actually fared decent in this race.
01:04:38.000But like to your point, I mean, I don't even know if it's the Islamification because, I mean, all these people listed aren't, I mean, they're Muslims on paper, but they don't really like impose any Islamic values beyond general hatred of the West.
01:04:50.000And what's going on is if you look at their districts, it's a lot of people from the third world or the descendants of people that have arrived recently.
01:04:59.000And so it's like, what's going on there is more we've just let our guard down as far as immigration goes and we're just letting anyone show up regardless of like what they believe in and that's how you end up with this situation where it's like it's not i mean people like blame white liberals for everything i'm like yes and they're responsible for the immigration i mean totally totally out of control immigration but it's like i mean you flooded the country with third world you shouldn't be surprised when they start importing third world style politicians so it's like i don't think they'll start electing them right and i don't think someone like elon omer is going to implement
01:05:29.000sharia law i think it's worse i think she just hates the united states and wants to turn it into south africa and another and to that point it's like they don't like we don't now that we have the house and the senate and the executive branch and the judicial we have the whole kit and caboodle we're not going to do anything about her marrying her brother right yeah and like falsifying her immigration document like she it should be so easy to remove ilhan omar from congress should be it's but the thing is just a
01:05:58.000matter of enforcing the laws it doesn't matter if you take ilhan omar out of congress though because her constituents are going to elect them okay let them but it shows it sets precedent you cannot serve in congress if you're not really an american citizen and you didn't become an american citizen you can't marry your brother to become an american citizen so let them wait a minute she married her brother so he could become an american citizen correct so she's broken the law but it's not about her citizenship is that how it works that's
01:06:28.000well if i understand correctly the situation is she became a citizen because she got it was some kind of refugee program or whatever she became a citizen and then she married her brother so that way her brother that's the the that's what's alleged i don't know how true it is or whatever regardless you're just going to be playing whack-a-mole like every once in a while you might finally get like one of these politicians where you actually have something a reason to get rid of them but it's like for every ilan omar that you you squash you're going to get two more and it's like until you actually address the driving issue behind why so
01:06:58.000many of these politicians are appearing which is the unchecked third world migration yeah i mean charlie kirk and matt walsh have been hitting on this for a few months now it's like we actually need to have some serious conversation about ending birthright citizenship and possibly even look at re-migration i mean this has been explored by the trump admin this has to happen because you're not going to stop this flood and it's going to expand and expand and it's not even like i mean islam is a problem and especially in europe but um it's just this general like when you see people like zoran you see people like ilan omar you don't think islam
01:07:28.000you think think resent just resentment against like what america is and resentment against the Marxist leftists, it's like a combination of everything.
01:07:36.000And the only thing that ties any of this together is just resentfulness.
01:08:05.000You could end up hosting the tonight show.
01:08:07.000Literally, Zoron Mamdani is that guy from the Indian food memes where they're like, Here's the, here's the your sandwich, put the, you know, and he's eating them with his hands, and that's what we got.
01:08:53.000The Sun Fresh Market abruptly shut its doors on Monday, August 12th, with a handwritten sign tape to the entrance reading: Due to unforeseen circumstances, super unforeseen, beyond our control, we are no longer able to serve residents at this time.
01:09:06.000Emmett Pearson Jr., the group CEO, has repeatedly said that relentless shoplifting and crime in the neighborhood have driven away customers.
01:09:14.000Last month, images at the grocery store shared online reveal mostly bare shelves and coolers as well as empty meat produce and deli departments.
01:09:22.000Shoppers said the store once held fresh items they needed, but it has been mostly empty for the last three months, and that some of the products available appear to be expired.
01:09:31.000The milk, I'm scared to buy some shopper Michael Michelle Randolph told KMBC at the time, even the dates they may have a few days over.
01:11:22.000They're going to do things to protect their investment.
01:11:25.000When there is no investment from a private entity, when it's just the government that's providing stuff, there's no incentive to protect it.
01:11:33.000It's not worth the risk to try to stop them.
01:11:36.000This is the kind of stuff that happens when government isn't running, you know, running what should be private industry.
01:11:42.000You know, it says $28,997,400 in taxpayer money.
01:11:50.000What I'm curious about, maybe Chad GPT or one of these AIs has the answer, is how much inventory was actually in the store and how much of it is just like people, you know.
01:12:01.000It was probably $30,000 worth of inventory and the rest was all golden toilet.
01:12:05.000Yeah, it was all just dispersed, just embezzled by people that were the rest of it went to Ukraine, right?
01:12:13.000Shop here at the government store and we send bullets to Ukraine.
01:12:16.000If by Ukraine you mean that we were actually in the municipal government.
01:12:23.000Yeah, I mean, you're going to get this thing with Zoron where it's going to be really similar to de Blasio, where all of his grand ideas that he ran on are going to get shaved down because there's just, I mean, New York has a tight budget and it's going to be like, it's going to be one grocery store and it's going to be like half baked, half subsidized, but it's going to get a lot of attention, a lot of press, and it's going to actually like run kind of well.
01:12:43.000And people are going to be like, see, see, this works.
01:12:46.000It's going to, it's going to, it's going to suck because, yeah, and they're going to have like these terrible murals everywhere.
01:13:01.000And then when it does fail, people are going to say, oh, it was implemented wrong.
01:13:05.000It actually worked for a little bit there because they're not going to actually say, hey, no, this did have problems.
01:13:10.000They're going to say, we need to double down on it because that's what always happens.
01:13:13.000Like the MTA runs, like, I mean, the MTA can't get anything done.
01:13:17.000I mean, they're, and that's like the beating heart of New York City.
01:13:21.000And they're always, they're always like scraping the barrel for cash.
01:13:24.000So it's like, I mean, let's get the MTA right first before we start working on like nationalizing, you know, what's wrong with the D-Train, man.
01:14:12.000There was like, because there was a piece, I think it was in the New Yorker today, and it was like, the interesting story behind the ramps at Bodegas.
01:14:18.000And it's just like a terrible conversation.
01:15:52.000So I basically, what happened, if you want to go to the first slide first before we play the video, about a month ago on July 1st, there was an announcement that they were going to do a practice run of the Red Heifer.
01:16:11.000And prior to this, the media outrage that the Jews were going to go do this Red Heifer, you had these lunatics like Stu Peters and others who were saying, this is going to usher in the Antichrist, blah, blah, blah.
01:16:24.000And it was like a real big media bully on.
01:21:58.000But yeah, so the time frame, I mean, there is no timeframe for it.
01:22:03.000It's kind of like, you know, you take the cake out of the oven when it's ready.
01:22:07.000And so we're all just sitting here down on earth cooking, waiting for that time where we accept this moment called Shiloh, where all the world gathers together.
01:22:20.000Shiloh is a gathering of all the peoples of the world to honor God in Jerusalem.
01:22:25.000And so this is a major earth-shattering announcement because the anti-Semites, the Jew hate media has tried so hard to shut this down.
01:22:37.000And actually, this ties into October 7th as well, if you want to hear this story.
01:23:07.000But essentially, what happened was Iran wasn't ready for this.
01:23:12.000They were planning an all-out surprise attack at the same time.
01:23:16.000And Yahya Sinwar became obsessed with this story, a lot like Stupid Peters and these other fools, that if the Jews did this, they would become unstoppable.
01:23:28.000And so they did October 7th prematurely to force the hand of Iran and to force the hand of Hezbollah and the Houthis and whatnot.
01:23:38.000And it ended up resulting in the complete catastrophic destruction of all these entities.
01:23:45.000I mean, Iran, the paper tiger of our childhood, is no more.
01:23:55.000And it's all because this one man became so obsessed with the red heifers.
01:23:59.000So it ties into like this messianic story of like the liberation of the land and the rejudification of the land, possibly even greater Israel.
01:24:10.000So I have to ask, I mean, as Christians, as Matthew 24, 36, where Christ says, no one will know the day or hour when I return.
01:24:20.000So why as Christians should we care about the red heifer?
01:24:24.000So there's all sorts of different denominations of Christianity.
01:24:44.000I actually have come to learn through being like this Jew in this exclusively Christian space that a lot of Christians, different denominations like Unitarianism and certain Protestant faiths, don't believe that Jesus is God.
01:26:12.000We're a people that love civil war reenactments.
01:26:16.000We do reenactments for everything, but when it comes to Jews reenacting things that God said to do in the Bible, you have like these groups of right-wing French Christians who are just like, this is satanic.
01:26:55.000He consumes the aroma, the scent of the offering.
01:27:02.000So God has very specific procedures about purity, who can come up to God.
01:27:09.000You can't just be unshowered and go before God.
01:27:13.000And so, like, how do you clean yourself?
01:27:16.000How do you prepare oneself to actually go do a temp to the temple, right?
01:27:21.000Forget about outside of the temple for now.
01:27:24.000So if you're going to go to the temple and worship God and pray to God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the temple of Jerusalem where it always has stood, then you have to prepare yourself in a specific way.
01:27:36.000Now, up on the temple mount, you cannot come into contact with death and be there.
01:27:41.000It's such a pure place that death can't exist there.
01:27:44.000So this ritual is a ritual that removes the spiritual impediment of death.
01:28:04.000It was a vessel that once held a living soul, like thoughts, emotions, feelings, ideas, but then it's empty.
01:28:14.000And so there's this vacated space that sucks things into it.
01:28:17.000So if a person touches a dead corpse, they too contract this thing called tumat mavit, which is the impurity of death.
01:28:25.000So in order to remove that, God gave over in his Bible a recipe with the ashes of the red heifer to purify one of death.
01:28:38.000And it removes the spiritual impediment of death out of the consciousness of humans, which allows them to heal, to live, and to be able to go up on the temple mount in a clean way and pray.
01:28:50.000So if you believe that Jesus is God, or if you believe that Jesus is the Messiah, whatever you believe, doesn't matter.
01:28:57.000If you believe Jesus is God, then you believe that Jesus told the Jewish people to do this.
01:29:01.000Well, we believe that Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice.
01:29:58.000I mean, we just believe the covenant was fulfilled.
01:29:59.000Yeah, like the old book, but we believe the covenant was fulfilled in the new book with the establishment of all the new, the new things that Jesus brought about.
01:30:06.000Christ was the ultimate sacrifice, the fulfillment of the old covenant.
01:30:55.000So this is what I wanted to ask about.
01:30:57.000I think my camera will be screwed up a little bit, but I'll quickly ask.
01:31:01.000There's been people that have talked about like, because these heifers were brought from Texas, right?
01:31:06.000And the generations of heifers, like they were the one, like, basically, the argument was against, like, were they kept, were certain ones selectively bred in a particular way?
01:31:32.000It took many generations to breed out all the black hairs.
01:31:35.000Wouldn't that get rid of like, so as a Christian, I don't really believe in like the mystery, but like, I don't really necessarily, I believe in the, there's mystery within the faith, and I totally see where the Eastern Orthodox, another separation of the faith, where they believe heavily in like the mystery of like, of, of all of this.
01:31:51.000Wouldn't that get rid of like some of like the divine, the divine intervention of Christ making these heifers, like if people were the ones who are growing these, growing these cows to be a particular thing?
01:32:15.000So like in human history, there's only been nine of them that have been sacrificed.
01:32:21.000Now, there's probably red heifers in every single generation.
01:32:25.000But if the ritual is done by Jewish people and the red heifer is off in, you know, Malaysia or wherever it's born, nobody, in the old world, it's not going to get to us.
01:32:35.000So part of like, actually, ironically, I'll bring this out.
01:32:40.000I was going to give it to Tim, but I just published my first book.
01:32:45.000It's called Odd Shiloh, The Blueprint for the Final Awakening.
01:32:50.000And I talk about basically in this book, the process of, if you want to look through, the process of what happens in the world when the Messiah comes.
01:33:01.000There's a whole transformation that takes place to our entire being.
01:33:17.000Oh, Maimonides talks about it, but I quote him in my book several places, but it is that it's all he talks about a lot about the Rambam talks a lot about the coming of the Messiah, but a thousand years ago, they were speculating with primitive understanding of the world what the age would actually look like.
01:33:40.000So if you read a lot of the books of Kabbalah, such as the Ramchal Derach Hashem, which I give a Tuesday night class on Awesome Jew, the Ramchal speaks about the age of the Messiah, that in the age of the Messiah, everything reverts back to how it was in the Garden of Eden before the fall, before the sin.
01:34:03.000Telekinesis, the ability to move things with your mind, things like that are going to, humans are going to be downloaded with unbelievable powers.
01:34:12.000You know, in the Garden of Eden, nothing physical was able to impede on Adam before he ate from the tree of knowledge.
01:35:10.000So, in Christianity, you guys believe that Jesus came and conquered death, and then you guys all get to watch him conquer death while you die.
01:35:18.000In Judaism, his conquering of death means that no one has to die, like in a physical death, there's eternal life through Christ, but in heaven, not on earth, right?
01:35:56.000It's about free will and our own conscious evolution to accept upon us this new age of being where, you know, just 50 years ago, 100 years ago, nobody would ever think we'd be sitting here on microphones talking to millions of people on the internet the way that we're doing right now.
01:37:18.000So, essentially, the argument or what you're expecting is the Messiah comes back, and one of these three heifers will be the one that the Messiah sacrifices.
01:37:29.000The red heifer that Moses did lasted for hundreds of years.
01:37:44.000The second one was done by Ezra from the Bible.
01:37:47.000He's one of the books in what you guys would call the Old Testament.
01:37:51.000He was the prophet that led the Jews back after the first destruction of the temple.
01:37:56.000So, if you think about the duration of time from Ezra until roughly the destruction of the second temple, the last one that was done was literally done during the times of Jesus.
01:38:07.000If Jesus ever went to the temple, which you guys, I'm sure, think he did.
01:38:12.000It says he did that, he did the red heifer ceremony.
01:38:16.000Well, I mean, because he was Jewish, but yeah, ultimately, he was the final sacrifice that liberates us from having to sacrifice animals to be in communion with God.
01:38:24.000I mean, ultimately, that was the purpose of Christ was to sacrificing animals doesn't allow us to be in communication, communication.
01:38:44.000But obedience to God is a part of communion with God.
01:38:47.000Jesus said, like, let this be a new covenant unto you.
01:38:49.000When God made the temple, he made it a dwelling place for him to dwell amongst us.
01:38:54.000As I was saying before, this world, Jews were not concerned about getting into heaven.
01:38:59.000We're concerned about making this world into heaven.
01:39:01.000And God wants this world to be trans this is the most special world because it's only in this world that you could be tempted by sin and still choose to be good.
01:39:11.000In heaven, you don't have a temptation.
01:39:14.000It's a completely different free will.
01:39:17.000So in the Jewish Jewish tradition, is it that there is no heaven or there is a heaven, yeah?
01:39:55.000The only way to get out of the reincarnation cycle is to perfect your vessel over the course of lifetimes by completing the mitzvot, the commandments in the Torah, at all the different levels that they're supposed to be completed in.
01:40:09.000Or for the people who ultimately fail at life, they can go to hell for a deranged, a certain amount of allotted time.
01:40:21.000But then afterwards, they go to heaven and they await a time that the Messiah brings called the Techira Metim, which is the revivification of the dead, which is what you're talking about, this conquering of death and living forever.
01:40:34.000So Red Heifer is the gateway to this world that we all truly want to be in together.
01:41:08.000Become a member at rumble.com so you can join us for the after show and then go to Timcast.com and become a member there so you can join the Discord and you can come to the after show and you can call in or you can hang out with people that have started podcasts in the Discord, hang out.
01:41:23.000Maybe you'll meet a wife or a husband or something like that because that's happened a couple times too.
01:41:28.000So right now we're going to go to your super chats and we're going to start with, let's see.
01:41:33.000Quantum Strange Quark asked me, he says, Phil, how is it going with your amateur radio license studies?
01:41:40.000I want a QSL card from you when you get your license.
01:41:43.000I haven't done it because I'm probably not going to because I figured out how to use the radio without one.
01:41:53.000And, you know, only the sad hams have a problem with that.
01:42:20.000Look, as far as I'm concerned, there's always going to be that kind of drama when there's a monetary incentive, right?
01:42:28.000So like people, the internet is competing for attention.
01:42:33.000And as long as there are people that have a monetary incentive to try to get your attention, there are going to be people that will find it functional to slander other people.
01:43:37.000I've been in so many debates on the right, and everybody comes out, and we're always fighting.
01:43:43.000And the in-fighting really brings about a greater truth.
01:43:47.000So the question is, can we all get along afterwards?
01:43:50.000I mean, I feel like you're even talking about a more intricate and well-meaning version of it.
01:43:56.000I think a lot of this is just people fighting on the internet because it's good for their brain.
01:44:00.000And we have to be mindful of actually who's really with us and who's grifting because they're that's where I see the Fed, like Candace Owens, all these people who pretend to be MAGA.
01:44:12.000Nick Fuentes, who wouldn't support Trump, who literally were willing to risk everything in the 2024 elections because they were so afraid that Trump supports Israel.
01:44:41.000But in general, I don't like that term because most people, now it just means person I disagree with.
01:44:46.000And it's a bunch of, and both sides do this.
01:44:48.000They fall into purity testing and they go down their own weird ideological purity spirals and it just ends up being a waste of time for everybody.
01:44:56.000It's good for me if I want to sit there and read a bunch of people fighting with each other.
01:45:03.000You know, the people that are busy chopping other people down, a lot of times, they're just doing it so that way they can talk about it on their podcast or their show or whatever.
01:45:14.000We saw the great war of the e-girls going after each other.
01:45:17.000I mean, yeah, the conservative e-girls.
01:45:34.000You know, I'll tell you, when she came on the show, the whole show, we were just supposed to talk about it, but we got sucked into such a deep conversation that we barely even talked about it.
01:46:10.000My favorite development of that whole e-girl thing was when they made a private chat on X and they included Shu and the only input that she had was why am I here LAMO?
01:48:22.000Josh 2371 says, A lot is a typical war hawk, a coward.
01:48:26.000Want America to fund or participate in these wars, but doesn't go to serve and participate in these bloodbaths, but expect people's children to go die for him.
01:48:34.000I don't know if that's actually an accurate representation of a lot take.
01:48:41.000You're a bit of a picturing the politician who actually says that behind closed doors is actually what I want is for your kids to go to war and die for campaigns on.
01:48:50.000He's like, honestly, that's the new idea.
01:49:30.000I mean, but Americans are rubbed raw from decades of wars that have been fought, where American citizens have been fought, sent overseas to fight in countries that don't want them there, and their children did die for that.
01:49:52.000But it doesn't mean that the general premise is wrong, which is that there has been a lot of war and a lot of death that this country has brought upon itself by getting itself involved in countries that didn't want them there in the first place because whether it was oil or drugs, whatever it was.
01:50:08.000And I think that there's an honest intention there, even if it's kind of morphed into something more, especially like you said, when it's on social media, that's very different than your parents saying, I don't want my kids going to a foreign country, not saying anyone specifically dying for something they don't believe in.
01:51:15.000To the point that they were making is like, there's people still who feel as if, you know, whether it was Iraq and Afghanistan, weapons of mass destruction, and then as media branched out, we no longer have the four networks that have been lying to you and basically giving you the government line for however many decades where their kids did go to war on a lie.
01:51:36.000And that is something that still makes a lot of people nervous.
01:51:40.000So, you know, it's just easier to suss it out now because we have our own way of getting information that's not tied to Fox, MSNBC, CNN, ABC.
01:51:50.000AK Storm49 says, Brandon Herrera is running for Congress again and is already getting spicy on X. I can tell that Ernest Tony Gonzalez is going to get epically cyberbullied even better this time around.
01:52:26.000And in a congressional district, the size of San Antonio, I mean, that's a, or hitting in a congressional district that size, 400 votes is not a lot.
01:53:12.000That's something that, you know, it's good to draw attention to positive feedback, especially economic and especially seeing as it's so rare that people actually have positive interactions with any kind of customers.
01:53:27.000Number one in customer service used to be like a selling point for a company.
01:53:30.000Now they're like, we don't even care because we're shipping it elsewhere.
01:54:02.000Well, I mean, look, again, this is something we were talking about on PCC.
01:54:05.000The situation is the left wants a more racist America.
01:54:09.000That plays into exactly what they want.
01:54:14.000When you hear the phrase critical racial consciousness, that means to be racist.
01:54:19.000That means to see race before everything else and be critical of racial dynamics.
01:54:26.000Anytime you see that one race is quote unquote being oppressed by another, it's your job to call it out.
01:54:32.000But all that does is make more racist people.
01:54:35.000If you put race before any other dynamic or any other part of society, you're going to end up with people that are more racist.
01:54:46.000The left thinks that people that are in power, in positions of power or, you know, what they would consider positions of power, they think that they should feel bad about it and they should say, oh, well, you know, I'm an oppressor and I should feel bad.
01:55:01.000And so I should do things that help the oppressed.
01:55:05.000But there are a lot of people out there that'll say, well, look, man, if you want me to play this game, I am just going to play to win.
01:55:14.000And that is exactly what you're seeing now.
01:55:16.000So when people say, oh, you know, more racists, well, you can thank the left because the liberals, the classical liberals of the 80s, 90s, they wanted people to not focus on race.
01:55:30.000I mean, even all the way back to a lot of people in the 60s, 70s, and 80s, the classically liberal argument was don't focus on race.
01:55:38.000In the oughts and teens, the argument changed and it's a focus on race.
01:56:12.000I don't know that they're, I don't know that predicting World War III is a good thing.
01:56:19.000And there's a lot of countries that are WEF countries that have nuclear weapons.
01:56:25.000To be honest, I think there's no argument to be made for World War III anymore.
01:56:29.000I mean, like as Ukraine and Russia wraps up, the Middle East is done.
01:56:34.000Like nobody has to worry about that for maybe 50 years, maybe never again, thanks to President Trump.
01:56:42.000And if he figures out this Ukraine-Russia thing, we're in the clear, man.
01:56:46.000We could start to travel internationally again.
01:56:49.000Well, I mean, I'm a bit of a China hawk.
01:56:52.000I think that China is probably the greatest threat to the United States right now.
01:56:57.000Maybe not militarily right now, but economically right Now, and also, you know, with the push that they're putting on, I'm not AI skeptical.
01:57:05.000There's a lot of people that are here at Simcast Media that think that AI is not all that it's cracked up to be.
01:57:11.000I think that it likely is all that they're talking about.
01:57:15.000And if you have a country like China that achieves AGI, that is something that would be bad for the whole world.
01:57:23.000So that's my what's the difference between AGI and AI?
01:57:26.000Well, AI is like your like my Tesla, right?
01:57:29.000Like it drives itself with a full self-driving.
01:57:40.000So an AGI is artificial general intelligence, and usually that is thought of as artificial super intelligence.
01:57:47.000Once you reach a certain level of intelligence with artificial intelligence or possibly just even speed, right?
01:57:54.000Because intelligence could be just the ability or the speed at which computations are made.
01:58:01.000Once you reach a certain speed, then times how long it takes for computation stops mattering.
01:58:08.000Because if a computer can do 10,000 years of thinking in a week, that means that in the next week, it'll be exponentially more thinking in that amount of time.
01:58:17.000So the argument is once you reach artificial super intelligence, it will be able to outthink anything human beings can do.
01:58:27.000And whether or not it takes over, starts making decisions or not, you don't know.
01:58:32.000But part of the problem or part of the fear with AGI or artificial superintelligence is it's so smart that it takes over and no one can tell.
01:58:42.000It just makes people get people to do what it wants without having to convince or fight with humans or whatever.
01:58:56.000So this isn't like a matrix where it already happened and we're just going to trickle down.
01:59:01.000I mean, look, there's people that believe we live in a simulation.
01:59:03.000I personally don't think so, but I don't think that the computer systems that we have, the artificial intelligence that we have, I just don't think that we have the hardware to do it yet.
01:59:15.000You don't think like the government secretly does or anything like that?
01:59:18.000No, I think that there's still physical limitations on the processing power and the electricity generation.
01:59:28.000It takes too much energy to do the computation necessary for the levels of artificial intelligence that we have now and to get to super intelligence, that amount of processing power.
01:59:44.000Right now, one of the things that happens with these massive data banks and GPUs that they use to do the computations necessary is they're doing so much work and that they literally melt.
01:59:59.000So it's a physical thing in the real world.
02:00:02.000There's electrons going through it and it heats up so much that they actually will destroy themselves.
02:00:06.000So basically, if we want to stop AI, everybody should go on ChatGPT right now and ask it to draw like a hundred different things.
02:08:11.000I want to see what they're talking about.
02:08:12.000Look at this guy in the back, this other cop.
02:08:14.000He's like thinking to himself, is he about to fucking D.C. man has been charged with felony assault charges after hitting a federal agent with a subway sandwich.
02:08:46.000Prosecutors say Sean Charles Dunn shouted at the officer who was patrolling with Metro Transit Police in Northwest DC saying, fuck you, you fucking fascist leftist.
02:12:40.000I wish that, like, I really wish that there was enough of the video where you could see him just take his foot out from under him and he just like trips over it.
02:12:46.000How funny would it have been if like that car that comes right after he like smacks into the car?
02:13:42.000My question is directed at Adam K. As a Zionist, you believe in a Jewish state, so you should understand the need for mutable values slash to establish good law and build a good, solid foundation for a nation.
02:13:57.000Do you think that America is better off declaring itself a Christian nation so we can rebuild our beautiful federal capital and fit you guys have been discussing on tonight's episode?
02:14:08.000Do I think that America should be a Christian nation?
02:14:32.000So if you want it to be, if you want to, if you want to repeal the First Amendment, are you going to, in your little Christian nation, what do you going to leave free speech there too?
02:14:43.000Or, you know, are people going to be allowed to blaspheme your God?
