Hunter Biden has been found guilty. The son of the president was found guilty on all charges related to being a crackhead and buying a gun, but lying about it. And there s actually a mixed perspective on this. Many on the right are actually kind of pissed off. This is self-incrimination, requiring Hunter Biden to admit that he's the user of illegal drug to the government, which violates the Fifth Amendment. And it's also a non issue.
00:00:20.000The son of the president found guilty on all charges related to being a crackhead and buying a gun, but lying about it.
00:00:27.000And there's actually a mixed perspective on this.
00:00:30.000Many people on the right are actually kind of pissed off about it.
00:00:34.000This is self-incrimination, requiring Hunter Biden to admit that he's the user of an illegal drug to the government, which violates the Fifth Amendment.
00:00:43.000Now, a lot of people did want to see Hunter Biden face accountability because many feel like Democrats aren't being held accountable.
00:00:50.000But, of course, the narrative now is that, oh, they're going after Hunter Biden, the Biden family, because they can't get anything on Joe, and it's a deflection.
00:00:59.000But we will talk about this, because some people are certainly happy that he is being held accountable.
00:01:02.000And then the other big news, of course, is that for the past couple days, they've been reporting Russian Navy off the coast of Florida.
00:01:09.000Maybe it's big news, maybe it's not, we'll see.
00:01:12.000And then there's a bunch of other fake news that we'll get into.
00:01:14.000The funny thing following the Hunter Biden guilty verdict on gun charges is Joe Biden calling for gun control.

00:02:07.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more is Daniel Turner.
00:03:52.000And that case goes forward in September, I believe.
00:03:56.000So there is a level of like, he may be being sacrificed.
00:03:59.000On the other hand, maybe they thought by getting this out of the way, It would sort of help him in other cases.
00:04:05.000Maybe they could skirt some other stuff on the rug.
00:04:07.000If you guys remember his plea deal, that was the big part of it, just trying to make it as easy for a Hunter Biden, who's now facing basically 25 years in prison and like a $750,000 fine.
00:04:18.000Contrast that with Trump, who's facing up to four years in prison.
00:04:21.000I think it was 25 years per charge, and he's got three charges.
00:04:37.000I mean, if they're not on crack and they're not wielding it at the same moment, if you're on crack wielding a gun... That was a defense presented by his attorney Abe Lowell, was basically like, well, he wasn't currently on crack at that moment, so it seems fine.
00:04:49.000But that's about lying on the ATF form.
00:04:51.000So basically what Hunter Biden was charged with is that you get this federal background check form, and Democrats are all about their background checks.
00:05:27.000My thing is kind of like, I agree, a lot of people have pointed out, and these are like hardcore Trump supporters who have every reason to just say, lock all the Bidens up, have outright said, this violates the Fifth Amendment, this is unconstitutional, and that's actually what the defense argued, because it forces an individual to self-incriminate.
00:05:44.000This case with Hunter Biden, if they're going to appeal this, it's a federal case, if this ends up before the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court, thanks to Hunter Biden, could overturn federal background checks.
00:05:56.000Not the figurehead the Second Amendment movement thought they needed.
00:06:00.000As his father is in Atlanta talking about gun control and that awful statistic, which is a flat-out lie that more children die from guns than cancer and car accidents combined, but they define children up until 21 years of age.
00:06:16.000So yeah, it's kind of ironic that this is happening all on the exact same day and no one at the White House pulled the plug and said, maybe we shouldn't be talking about gun control right now.
00:06:25.000I think we should see, you know, as many conservative organizations and gun rights organizations file briefs on behalf of Hunter Biden for his defense that, look, if you are on crack with a gun on your person, then I OK, that's like being behind the wheel of a car.
00:06:46.000Like, you know, if there was a guy for just hypothetically, was chewing on a speedball behind the wheel of an SUV, and
00:06:52.000the cops had to drag him out of the car, kick it in screaming, and then hold him on the ground. I
00:06:57.000mean, that's a guy who's committing very serious crimes, you know, and resisting arrest and all
00:07:03.000that stuff. Very serious outcomes could come from something like that. Hunter Biden, if he
00:07:08.000was actively doing crack with the gun on him, I'd understand arresting him and saying like, you are
00:07:14.000using a controlled substance while in in possession of weapon that should be a specific crime but
00:07:21.000If you're a gun owner, and you don't have a gun on you, but your gun's, like, in your house somewhere, and you're out gallivanting about on crack, I don't believe you should be charged with owning a gun for that reason.
00:07:33.000You weren't wielding the gun while on crack, you're just doing crack somewhere else.
00:07:37.000If you get charged for doing crack, which is a felony, they can then, after you're convicted, say, and now as a felon, you relinquish your right to your guns.
00:07:47.000But I think this should be a major attack vector for 2A rights organizations because it puts Democrats in an awkward position.
00:07:54.000If all of the right-wing and Republican and gun advocacy groups come out in defense of Hunter Biden, they're going to have to agree or Let's pitch Hunter Biden to the pit.
00:08:05.000Is your position because it's the Second Amendment specifically or self-incrimination writ large?
00:08:13.000No, no, the Second Amendment that this is because it's because of the right to own, to bear arms.
00:08:17.000Well, you said self-incrimination, which is a separate thing.
00:08:20.000No, but are you concerned about this because it's a Second Amendment issue and the right to bear arms is sacrosanct, and I agree with that, but what's the difference between what Hunter Biden did and when you come back into the country and they say, Do you have this in your possession?
00:08:37.000Aren't you self-incriminating to a certain extent?
00:08:56.000What's the difference on lying on the form?
00:08:59.000So it's a question of morality and it's not a question of straight blanket logic of, you never have to tell the government anything at any point.
00:09:07.000I think border security, if you leave the country and you're operating outside of the United States, coming back in, it's reasonable to say, as you now enter our legal jurisdiction, we want to make sure that these things, you know, are controlled for, for very specific reasons.
00:09:21.000But it is a good argument. When it comes to reentering the country, U.S. citizens,
00:09:25.000you're not supposed to—they're not supposed to make you take a picture or fingerprint or
00:09:28.000anything like that. You do all the time now. Well, I don't.
00:09:31.000I mean, I haven't flown internationally in a couple years now, several years. But the last time I did,
00:09:38.000when I came in an international line, all the non-citizens are getting their hands scanned and
00:09:44.000I walked up, they said, passport, I just had an American passport, they looked through it and they said, what were you doing in insert country, and I was like, X, Y, and Z, welcome back to America, and I was like, here, here, and then that's it.
00:09:52.000So the idea is, as an American citizen, you have constitutional rights, they can't do these things to you.
00:10:39.000I don't like it that people are doing crack, and I understand.
00:10:43.000You know, I'm fairly libertarian on drugs and all these substance abuse laws.
00:10:48.000I don't think they're solving any of these problems.
00:10:50.000Not that I think we should completely legalize everything, but my attitude is...
00:10:54.000Forcing you on a background check form to admit to committing felonies, I think, is very, very different from admitting you have an orange in your pocket, which I think at worst is a fine.
00:11:03.000What was the actual question on the thing that he said he wasn't?
00:11:45.000I mean, the other thing that I find interesting about this case is, you know, Andy Ngo had a video of a woman protesting outside of the courthouse today.
00:11:53.000And she was saying, you know, when I got in trouble for gun and substance related charges, they threw the book at me.
00:12:01.000He needs to be held accountable because this is really the question I think a lot of Americans I think the two-way things are interesting, and I think some people feel them really strongly.
00:12:10.000But the other part is, is he getting special treatment as the son of the president?
00:12:15.000You know, a lot of Americans struggle with addiction.
00:12:17.000A lot of Americans are involved in the legal system because of that.
00:12:20.000Does he get a pass that other people don't?
00:12:46.000It's a Schedule 1 narcotic, according to the federal government, but some states are like, yo, it's medicine.
00:12:51.000And so, if you're in a state where it's legal, but then the federal government's like, hey, you lied on your federal background check when you said you didn't take illicit drugs.
00:13:35.000And I remember I was in California 10 years ago walking down Venice Boardwalk and there's people standing outside these weed shops going, like, weed card, weed card.
00:14:01.000If some kid, 18, 19 year old kid was like, oh, okay, goes in, there's the doctor and he says, I'm going to prescribe marijuana for your pain.
00:14:08.000The moment he gives you that card, you now have to admit on federal NICS forms, N-I-C-S, that you are a user of an illegal substance.
00:14:16.000Well, some people will get the card, but don't use it.
00:14:18.000I mean, it's an outlier case probably, but there are times when people will have it, they'll use it for a short period of time and then stop using it, but their card persists for the year or whatever.
00:14:26.000And you're gonna go to buy a gun and they're gonna deny you.
00:14:28.000The farm's gonna come back and they're gonna be like, you're on medicinal marijuana.
00:14:33.000Like, whether or not they can say, because you've got a medical marijuana card, you can't get a firearm, because sometimes I hear that it's okay, sometimes I hear it's not okay, but that's terrifying that that's the... Well, I'll put it this way, if you have a medicinal marijuana card, I believe it's fair to say 99.9% chance you are smoking marijuana.
00:14:51.000When you fill out your background check form, I'm pretty sure it says in parentheses, marijuana is illegal.
00:15:38.000And it says, are you an unlawful user of or addicted to marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug or any other controlled substance?
00:15:47.000The use or possession of marijuana remains unlawful under federal law regardless of whether it has been legalized or decriminalized for medicinal or recreational purposes in the state where you reside.
00:15:59.000That's the federal background check form.
00:16:31.000But, you know, federal crime stats, right?
00:16:34.000Well, I'm gonna go ahead and say, based off of that argument, federal background checks are racist and should be abolished for racism.
00:16:42.000This is interesting because if they're going to target sheets and say, rejecting employees or prospective employees because of their criminal background, because it's racist, You could then take the argument the government has made and say, based on exactly what they're saying, if this form results in a disproportionate amount of black and brown people unable to get firearms, then the federal government must get rid of it under the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
00:17:10.000Well, you wonder if NRA groups and Second Amendment groups are smart enough to be jumping onto this argument the way you're talking about it, because this could be the unraveling of so many unconstitutional gun laws that are always being talked about.
00:17:25.000And the fact that Hunter Biden is the advent of it is pretty ironic.
00:17:30.000This is an area of law I was talking with a lawyer about.
00:17:33.000It has to say, and I wish I could pull up all the terms she was using, but if your law would implicate the race...
00:17:42.000There's a way to delineate whether or not the law is actually racist or it's not, but it just outlies a disproportionate amount of people of a specific race.
00:18:14.000Every conversation turns into a race one sooner or later.
00:18:17.000If you're a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
00:18:22.000We got the proof right here from our good friend Chet GPT.
00:18:25.000I asked it for a bar graph of drug addiction rates by race, and here we can see that it's 7.5% among white people, 8.2% among black people, Hispanic people is 6.8, Asians are 3.5, Native Americans 12.3, and others 5.9.
00:18:41.000This clearly shows that all you need is one racial group to be disproportionately affected to prove the background checks are racist Based on the federal government's own argument they submitted to Sheetz, or against Sheetz, and I am hoping y'all can spread the word, and we can get as many two-way advocacy groups, the NRA's probably not going to do it, but any one of these other groups, they can take this argument, attach it to the argument made by the government themselves, and say, background checks are guns, are racist, and must be abolished.
00:19:15.000I assume the vice president herself will take this up because she's always been a champion of race issues and equity and, you know, she is the right person to champion this cause.
00:21:25.000First of all, This incoherent muttering, which we can't really understand what he's saying, but the idea that they're gonna need F-15s to go after us.
00:22:23.000I'm sure Madison would be like, actually, I would like to argue with you about that.
00:22:27.000You know what I find to be one of the big problems is we'll have some Republican politician come on and I'll say, should people have a right to keep and bear nuclear weapons?
00:22:50.000Private organizations are the ones that are making nuclear weapons and large weapons for the government.
00:22:55.000They have contracts with the government to produce these things.
00:22:57.000Sure, the government regulates it, but the Constitution protects the right of independent entities to have weapons of mass destruction, as it always did.
00:23:05.000And there are politicians that are like, no, and I'm like, I don't see anywhere in the second amendment where it says, unless the weapon can do X, Y, or Z, unless it literally just says you can have guns.
00:23:37.000It only imagined everyone having a musket, and then you say, well, when the First Amendment existed, we didn't have the internet or the cell phone, so does the freedom of speech mean it's just the printing press, right, or the newspaper?
00:23:48.000Because technology's evolved, but the rights evolve and grow with it, and so it continues.
00:23:55.000It's true, but even the argument has a broken premise.
00:24:00.000The first rapid-fire gun was from, I think, 1300-something.
00:24:05.000And it was basically you had like this barrel with a ton of small barrels in it, and they were all lined up so that you rip it one time and they go bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu-bu In the year 1300, someone figured out, we don't need a single musket, we can make 50 barrels in one cylinder, preload them all, aim it, and then pack them, everything's ready to go, and then you rip one, and it goes brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
00:24:45.000And so, the Founding Fathers could not have imagined such devices.
00:24:49.000Certainly, they didn't have cartridges at the time, but they definitely understood the power of, like, rapid-fire weapons that had been around for a long time, and it's because of what was conventional at the time and what was in mass production.
00:25:03.000Big warships with guns that would be contracted by the Crown and by the United States government to engage in various activities, and those were private individuals who owned them, and they said, we're not going to interfere with you.
00:25:13.000And isn't that what a militia actually is?
00:25:33.000Yeah, not regular army, not regular police.
00:25:35.000So the militia, being necessary for a free state, basically what they're saying is The people who are willing to defend their homes are required to actually have a free country, so they gotta have guns.
00:25:49.000The good news is, there are so many guns in this country, we will never be invaded.
00:25:53.000But certainly Joe Biden's trying to do away with that.
00:25:54.000Then the other issue, of course, is he doesn't even know what an assault weapon is.
00:26:35.000We're banning assault weapons and weapons of war.
00:26:37.000And again, those are very vague, all encompassing because there's been war that were fought with rocks and sticks.
00:26:44.000You know, I saw a viral video of a guy who caught something like 30 feral hogs that were roaming through his property, and it's kind of wild to watch.
00:26:53.000And then he set up this fence, and they go in there, and then it catches them, and they're all freaking out and running, and it's like, and then you go and kill them all.
00:26:59.000Because they're extremely dangerous, and they will kill you.
00:27:03.000This is the remarkable thing about people who are in that room with Joe Biden, how ignorant they are.
00:27:07.000Someone said, what do you need a magazine with 30 rounds for?
00:27:10.000And a guy responded, what if I'm working on my acreage and 30 to 50 feral hogs come running through?
00:27:17.000And then they all started laughing as if it's not a real thing that happens.
00:27:20.000Yo, in Arizona, I had a friend who was in college, I think at like Arizona University or whatever, ASU, and they, I think it's ASU, they have javelina warnings.
00:27:29.000And she was like, this is like 20 years ago, she's like, I can't leave my apartment right now.
00:27:45.000So they're like, warning, don't go outside, and I'm like... Now, I certainly can understand why you're like, we're not gonna go outside into a residential area and start opening fire on a bunch of hogs that I get, but if you're on a farm, yeah, there's a real reason for these things to exist.
00:27:57.000Yeah, I've been on Texas ranches before where I've seen feral hogs that are 800, 900 pounds and they are in packs and the damage they do is absolutely incredible.
00:28:07.000And one of the few things that is strong enough to take them out from a safe distance that is precise enough is an AR.
00:28:15.000I've shot them before, because these things, if you leave them to roam wild, are going to destroy your crops.
00:28:20.000They'll eventually kill your livestock.
00:28:23.000And it's a huge problem in a lot of farms, especially in Texas, Oklahoma area.
00:28:30.000And it's a growing problem, because they breed like pigs, right?
00:28:56.000So these these things run around and they put out warnings because they're all over Arizona and they're like, you got to be careful because they're dangerous.
00:29:02.000My middle school had to give us – I grew up in Connecticut.
00:29:05.000They had to give us a specific talk on what to do if a bear crosses your path because like you'd have to walk to our sports field and it was sort of a wooded area.
00:29:12.000It's all rural and this would happen on occasion.
00:29:15.000You would get black bears who wander onto campus and like they don't care that it's a school.
00:29:19.000I don't think you're going to arm a bunch of middle schoolers but, you know, there are – it's people who don't interact with people whose lifestyles are different. The
00:29:29.000same people who tell you you've got to be open to the way other people live and
00:29:32.000diversity is a strength and all the stuff are the ones saying like, well, that's a ridiculous case.
00:29:36.000That would never happen. When it does. We've just kind of eclipsed the age of barbarism and of like...
00:29:42.000What do you mean eclipsed? We've kind of no longer live in the age of barbarism now. We're like warlords control.
00:29:48.000We kind of are in the tail end of it. Like we're looking at the end of like monarchy.
00:29:51.000Monarchy is kind of part of barbarism. We're like one guy like the British Emperor is still kind of
00:29:56.000barbaric in a sense because he controls everything around him with force.
00:30:02.000But, and also, like, the age of, like, ruralism is kind of, at least in the United States, we're kind of on the tail ends of this, like, with all this urbanism.
00:30:09.000So people are trying to twist the Constitution to fit the modern urban stay-in-your-lane era, but we still need our weapons.
00:30:16.000Like, shit can go crazy, power can go out, we need to defend against the wild animals.
00:30:44.000They used to be so dangerous to sail around.
00:30:47.000Like, now we've got a little bit more... Barbary pilots kidnapped 1.5 million white Europeans and sold them into slavery through Africa, and we don't... And I have yet to get a dime in restitution.
00:30:59.000Although I think at the time my family was already in America, but still.
00:31:23.000Originally the Germanics, when you talk about what the Romans thought were the barbarians, were the Germanic tribes.
00:31:27.000And so basically these are people outside of the empire who, and then as the empire began to decay, they start coming in en masse.
00:31:34.000And then of course, because we did this amazing culture war show on the Roman Empire, there was a period where one emperor was like, we're going to make everybody a citizen.
00:31:41.000We're going to give amnesty to everybody, hoping that it would bring in all this tax revenue.
00:31:45.000And it just precipitated the collapse of Rome.
00:31:47.000So how's that working out for you, America?
00:32:06.000The plan the White House has put forward would give work permits, deportation protections and other privileges to immigrants who are married to U.S.
00:32:11.000citizens and have been paroled in the U.S.
00:34:30.000So if you can bolster, because illegals do count in the census, if by 2030 California's got five more people and Illinois has six million more people and New York has three million more, well now they get their electoral votes back and they have to take them from somewhere.
00:34:45.000They'll take them from Wyoming, they'll take them from Colorado, they'll take one, et cetera, et cetera, and now the blue states are powerful again.
00:34:52.000It's crazy because they wouldn't let them ask about citizenship on the census.
00:35:02.000So back to Ian's point from the previous segment about the age of barbarism.
00:35:06.000We're experiencing similar, I don't know how similar, because of course I was not alive during the Roman Empire, but people from outside of the United States flooding in in massive numbers and then we're getting a president who wants to grant them amnesty.
00:35:51.000There's not enough people in the younger generation to sustain the older generation.
00:35:55.000And the next generation may actually be smaller.
00:35:59.000than the one before it. That means there's going to be more old people with more requirements
00:36:04.000and young people who can't pay the bill. You bring in 5, 10 million, 20, 30, because if they're doing
00:36:08.0001.5 million per year, they're trying to maintain that tax base, hoping they can tax these people,
00:36:13.000make enough money to sustain the system. You are going to end up with, very similarly to what
00:36:19.000happened in the Roman Empire, with the mass citizenship of all these non-citizens, and then
00:36:24.000your country just rips apart, split in half, and then fights each other.
00:36:28.000And you can already see this starting to happen in other Western countries.
00:36:31.000Canada just announced that they're gonna—Harrison Faulkner on Twitter does a good job covering this—they announced—so the background is that Canada said our goal is to bring in 500,000 new immigrants every year through 2026, which is crazy.
00:36:47.000That means in three years they want to bring in 1.5 million new people.
00:36:51.000This doesn't account for any illegal immigration in Canada.
00:36:54.000And one of the ways that they're opening permanent residency is by saying, well, we need people
00:36:57.000to work in our caregiver sector, right?
00:36:59.000We need people to take care of people who are homebound or whatever.
00:37:02.000And so we will, if you can, you know, they lowered their language standard to say, you
00:37:07.000know, if you can reach this base level, decreasing it, making it easier, and you can say that
00:37:11.000you already have a job here, you can prove that in some way, you and everyone in your
00:37:14.000family can come here and become permanent residents.
00:37:44.000Bush had just won re-election and he figured this was a legacy project and he threw out a lot of these statistics, said Social Security is going to go insolvent, population demographics are changing, etc., etc.
00:38:00.000They lost the Senate, they lost the House, and all he did was, he wasn't trying to abolish it, all he said was, Young people starting this year should be able to opt out and say, I will put my money – and I once was talking to Dana Perino, who was Bush's press secretary, and she said – and I want to find an economist to do this – she said, I wonder if you could go back and if that had been implemented, take X amount of dollars and invest it in 2007 and compare that to what Social Security does now.
00:38:44.000Imagine if you just treated your citizens with enough integrity to say, I will opt out of the Social Security system, and I recognize that when I turn 75, if I have made terrible investments and I am broke, that's on me.
00:38:59.000But they'll never allow you to opt out of the system because it opts out of big government, and Social Security is an enormous slush fund of money that government likes to play with.
00:39:07.000What you've got to understand is the way our politicians view this country.
00:39:11.000They do not view the United States as a body of people with shared moral values and a national border.
00:39:18.000They view this as their company with employees, and they don't care what their employees think.
00:39:24.000They need more employees because they don't have enough to milk the labor from.
00:39:29.000So the likes of the establishment Uniparty, they're not thinking about cultural traditions, moral values, the 4th of July and Christmas morning.
00:39:36.000They're thinking, we need 10,000 more employees to maintain this machine because I want to get my paycheck stripped.
00:39:43.000I want to be able to insider trade and buy stuff.
00:40:18.000Looks like they're letting people in to get a bunch of fighters ready for the next Imperial War, and they're just going to draft these dudes and send them off and give them citizenship if they survive.
00:40:27.000This is the Democrat establishment uniparty path versus the MAGA populist path, and we've talked about it.
00:40:34.000It seems like Hillary Clinton represents, and I mean like her ilk, the war machine.
00:40:41.000They have no regard for the American people.
00:40:43.000The United States is a vassal state of the international interests, and the American people just happen to have the benefit of the U.S.
00:40:56.000The world really was set up in a liberal economic order very much like the Hunger Games, right?
00:41:01.000And so the United States is basically like District 1 or 2.
00:41:03.000So for those that aren't familiar, the general idea is the lesser district where the main character is from, it's like coal mining Appalachia.
00:41:11.000And then the first district is military and police.
00:41:15.000I think, actually, it might have been the third.
00:41:17.000And then, like, first and second were, like, elite engineering and stuff.
00:41:33.000We are the military policing arm of the world.
00:41:35.000The American people are the cannon fodder for this machine to send overseas to enforce the petrodollar and the liberal economic order.
00:41:41.000And Donald Trump wasn't supposed to win because he represents an actual country.
00:41:47.000He actually is like... I like America and the American flag and apple pie and baseball and all these other things.
00:41:51.000And he is, in many ways, an old, lewd and lascivious man who represents the worst of American culture as well as the best of it, or at least the only one who's actually representing it at all.
00:42:40.000So that's the liberal economic order is American military police.
00:42:43.000And most people I know are done with it.
00:42:45.000They're like, we don't want to be the world's police.
00:42:48.000All the libertarians I know are like, no, screw this.
00:42:50.000So they want to make a new world order where the Americans aren't the military police.
00:42:53.000That kind of scares me, because what's that world order going to look like?
00:42:56.000Technically, we should have the biggest bargaining chip as the United States.
00:42:59.000We should be like, it's going to look like this.
00:43:01.000But instead, we've floundered for 20 years, kicked sand in our own eyes, and now they're like, we're just going to make a corporatocracy that's based on technocratic values and ideals.
00:43:12.000But it should be that we are establishing American constitutionalism globally right now.
00:43:17.000This new world order needs it, in my opinion.
00:43:19.000This country's the best thing... I've never... I mean, I've lived in other countries, but this free speech thing is, like, just so important for innovation.
00:43:28.000And it is the establishment powers of the United States trying to get rid of that.
00:43:41.000Oh, so if they keep the military bases but just transform them into an imperial military instead of an American military, then they don't have to get rid of the bases, but they've got their imperial order.
00:43:51.000You know, we talked about this because, obviously, civil war is on the mind of a lot of people, and people have tried to dance around the issue by saying, no, no, no, peaceful national divorce, which is impossible, because, like, Las Vegas can't exist in a state.
00:44:10.000We were talking about what would happen in a civil war, and one of the ideas is if the establishment uniparty basically just breaks away and becomes an international military body.
00:44:22.000The military-industrial complex already basically is.
00:44:25.000Like, does anyone in this country actually want to send our troops to Syria or any of these places?
00:44:33.000Certainly there are some people, but the overwhelming majority of Americans, and you can see it in the populist left and right, as crazy as the populist leftists may be, the one thing we all agree on is, why are we at war in all of these places?
00:44:46.000The one thing we really agree on is, why are we funding Israel?
00:44:57.000But the military-industrial complex, which does not represent the will of the people, uses the US, uses its men and women, its best and its brightest, to basically serve this international body.
00:45:07.000So I wonder, in the event of a national divorce, do we end up with an enclave?
00:45:12.000Do we end up with some... the functions of the U.S.
00:45:16.000military basically just becomes a U.N.
00:45:20.000bases that are all over the world get absorbed by an international body that says... and maybe ridiculously, you know, far-fetched or whatever.
00:46:01.000Who's giving you orders to the other bases?
00:46:03.000And then you get something light where they just say, look, we've got the U.N.
00:46:07.000Secretary General, of course, who has worked with the United States, is going to, in the interim, have someone and give us a general view of how we can stay organized.
00:46:17.000does dissolve into a greater conflict, then the people who are already stationed overseas just get told, don't worry, chain of command isn't broken, here's your new boss.
00:46:25.000Yeah, some UN or NATO commander, etc., etc., who is in charge.
00:46:30.000The only reason why I don't think that the divorce is possible or even the civil war is possible is because I go back to 2020 when General Milley said that he had private conversations with China to let them know that he would Let them have fair warning if Trump were actually to do anything.
00:46:48.000And you say, well, wait a second, why would you go against the Commander-in-Chief?
00:46:52.000And you realize, ah, the military is a little different than the Commander-in-Chief.
00:46:55.000So I think the military complex is so strong and so powerful that if there was the inkling of a civil war, those on the other side would be killed.
00:47:23.000There's no scenario, or I should say it's extremely unlikely in any circumstance, Where you get the states breaking apart and then declaring that they're joining a union.
00:47:33.000That's just... What happens with the United States in 1861 is a group of states that were basically focused around key issues and geographically connected, but also politically aligned.
00:47:45.000And so when... Actually, there was one small piece in the South.
00:47:50.000I can't remember, was it Louisiana or something?
00:47:56.000We looked it up before when we were looking up the Abraham Lincoln election in 1864.
00:48:02.000A lot of people seem to think that civil war is going to be California going, we declare civil war!
00:48:06.000What's going to happen is 30 guys from eastern California are going to just basically take over and say, we don't abide by any of this anymore.
00:48:16.000National divorce doesn't happen when Donald Trump raises an army on the east coast to the California west coast.
00:48:25.000What is more likely to happen is Texas files a lawsuit the Supreme Court again in November saying we have seen now numerous instances over the past two elections where they are subverting the Constitution and violating the legislative authority over elections.
00:48:41.000The Supreme Court once again says, we will not intervene.
00:48:45.000Texas then says, then we've got a problem because we will not recognize this man as president after everything that's already happened over the past four years.
00:48:53.000Then you get, I mean, it's remarkable.
00:48:56.000In 2020, we had, I think, 48 states were involved in a lawsuit suing Pennsylvania because they violated the state legislature's process of the elections.
00:49:07.000And so this was Texas v. Pennsylvania, and the Supreme Court refused to hear it.
00:49:12.000Basically, we have been in four years of limbo where, as much as people don't want to admit it in the mainstream, you have high-level state actors—I'm talking like AGs, governors, senators—who do not believe Biden actually won.
00:49:27.000Now, I know the media talks about election deniers.
00:49:29.000Every single one of these Democrats that calls a Republican an election denier is an election denier themselves.
00:49:33.000So we know exactly where this is going.
00:49:35.000If this time around, considering what we're seeing with the southern border, the actions of the Texas National Guard versus the feds, if there is another, whatever you want to call it, shadow campaign, that results in states filing lawsuits against each other, and the Supreme Court once again refuses to intervene, it's not that Texas is going to call up Arizona and say, you with us boys?
00:50:00.000What's going to happen is Texas is going to say, we're deploying our National Guard to the border and we no longer regard the federal agents as having authority here.
00:50:07.000Federal agents then say, no, we're taking command from Joe Biden.
00:50:11.000But then you've got federal agents who live in Texas being told by the Texas government, that's not the president.
00:50:19.000And so it's going to be really interesting when federal agents who are in places like Texas are being told, look, when we cooperate with law enforcement, it's Trump's federal agents, not Biden's.
00:50:32.000So if civil war does happen or national divorce, it's going to be confusing, chaotic, and no one knows exactly what's going on.
00:50:39.000You're going to have roving bands of militia.
00:50:41.000There's going to be groups that are going to be appointed.
00:50:43.000It could even come to the point where Donald Trump shows up, gets inaugurated, and then Democrats claim that Trump never actually won and he's stolen and he broke his way into the White House.
00:51:20.000We know that members of Congress don't even show up to vote.
00:51:23.000They have the camera set up in such a way, we were talking about this the other day, where you can see the one guy standing there going, how is it that Joe Biden is blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:51:38.000So in the event of an actual national divorce, my concern is that the military industrial complex machine of the United States just becomes an international machine outside of whatever the U.S.
00:51:50.000Or a bricks machine, which would be even more terrifying if they just changed their alignment, where they're getting their fiat from, from the other side.
00:51:59.000But I agree that it is kind of its own autonomous organization.
00:52:02.000What you're describing sounds like the beginning of the War of the Roses.
00:52:06.000Where you had two kings from two different houses who were both claiming legitimacy of the throne, and then all their families and allies and intrigues, and because no one knew who was the king.
00:52:18.000All I knew is that I was just trying to live on my farm, and the next thing you know, one shows up and says, you must pledge allegiance to this king, and if you don't, we'll kill your kids, and so you do.
00:52:27.000But then the next day, the other one shows up and says, you must pledge allegiance, and you just want to be left the hell alone.
00:52:51.000Biden and Trump are both short of the threshold.
00:52:53.000So it goes to a contingent election, where you end up with the House then Senate, House delegations would then choose the president, the Senate would then choose the vice president.
00:53:03.000Once that happens, Democrat media across the country is going to say Biden won and Trump's cheating.
00:53:09.000Trump's allies in these states are cheating to try and get him the victory.
00:53:22.000Or if it comes down to whatever the date is, it's going to be January 6th again, for the counting of the Electoral College votes, if they're like, we don't have any.
00:53:37.000When it comes to who's the authority, the most basic reality is whoever authored the people's minds first, who got to the media first.
00:53:45.000It's like when they run to the courthouse and they're like, arrest him!
00:53:49.000That's who's going to run the media story first.
00:53:52.000And I got an idea who I think is going to do that.
00:53:54.000It's going to be whoever owns those companies, ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC, all these companies that are kind of owned by the empire or run kind of in cahoots with the empire, they're probably going to make people believe that the imperial president is the one that got elected.
00:55:22.000This would be a constitutional crisis because it's one thing.
00:55:25.000To have a president who gets elected and then you find out his brain doesn't work and you trigger the 25th amendment.
00:55:30.000It's another thing to intentionally vote for a man who you know is already incapable and the moment he gets elected invoke the 25th amendment.
00:55:38.000Well if you saw video footage of him last night at Juneteenth event at the White House Americans know that he is not there.
00:55:46.000I mean, just his body language, the general look of utter confusion on his face.
00:55:51.000They have him standing up and trying to have him dance to whatever music was.
00:55:55.000And you see his hands frozen and floating?
00:56:37.000And the expectation is, you're actually voting for Kamala Harris.
00:56:40.000But think about what would happen in red states and swing states when they're saying, no way are we going to accept having the president be incapacitated and without the possibility of recovery, and you running him so that you could appoint Whoever you want after the fact.
00:56:56.000I think a lot of Democratic states wouldn't go for that either.
00:57:06.000But the point is, voting for an incapacitated Joe Biden is just so that Kamala Harris can either step down, Gavin Newsom can step in, and then they basically appoint a president.
00:57:16.000The big thing that I think is interesting for what you're saying is that basically the Democratic Party has always tried to downplay Joe Biden's health.
00:57:25.000One in the 80s and one I think in the early 2000s.
00:57:28.000Like, it's not that he was in tip-top shape when they decided this is the guy we have to run for president, but his health reports never seem to mention this, right?
00:57:37.000He has a previous history of having a neurological issue or a neurological condition.
00:57:42.000I cannot tell you what the long-term implications are there.
00:57:45.000It's hard for me not to believe that if you've had a stroke before, there's no damage, right?
00:57:50.000And I think that speaks to the reality, which is that they don't trust the rest of the bench.
00:57:55.000They don't think there's anyone who could really satisfactorily fill the spot that Joe Biden is sort of filling right now, at least filling physically, maybe not filling in terms of leadership and personality, which strikes a sort of It doesn't seem like they believe they are able to put the next person in office, whether it's Gavin Newsom, whether it's Kamala Harris, whether it's, you know, AOC.
00:58:20.000Like, they don't, as a sort of structure, seem to believe in who's coming down the pipe.
00:58:26.000I think, well, they've become such a cult of personality party, and they do lionize their leaders and create little alters to them that Biden was the only one in 2019 who had
00:58:41.000a general favorability and who was not super polarizing.
00:58:45.000The Pete Buttigieg people are not going to vote for the Elizabeth Warren people.
00:58:49.000The Elizabeth Warren people hate the Bernie Sanders people, even though they're the same.
00:58:53.000The Bernie Sanders people don't want to talk.
00:58:55.000Then Michael Bloomberg jumped in the race, right?
00:58:57.000So Joe Biden was like, hey, look, he was vice president.
00:59:50.000The ones who are coming in are illegals.
00:59:52.000And that's the only reason why the population of California is staying somewhat stable.
00:59:56.000But most Californians are, or not most Californians, the majority of people leaving California are But wouldn't that mean the people that are leaving are the ones that don't want to be under his leadership?
01:00:06.000So the people who are still there are probably more ardent supporters of him?
01:00:22.000I mean, I would argue it is something that eventually the America First and MAGA contingent of Republican and conservative causes will also have to deal with eventually.
01:00:33.000They would need to say, you know, who is going to take over leadership after Trump can no longer serve in office.
01:00:39.000It's just, it seems like they are, they have more options than the Democrats do.
01:02:24.000It's not the first time a Democrat has said Trump supporters need to go to a re-education camps.
01:02:28.000Maxine Warren has called them domestic terrorists.
01:02:30.000What they are doing is telling on themselves and they're sending a warning to you.
01:02:35.000They believe Trump will do it because they know they would do it.
01:02:39.000And so they assume that Trump is going to be like they are.
01:02:42.000The AOC interview I saw and all I could think of was that meme from Breaking Bad because the whole presidential election was about herself.
01:02:51.000And that meme from Breaking Bad, like, it's all about me.
01:02:53.000Like, what do you think of this election?
01:03:23.000Like, the people that are in jail from January 6th that did not commit violence, that were trespassing, that are actually still in jail, that's got to be weighing on people's conscience.
01:03:33.000Well, Trump had this rally in Nevada over the weekend.
01:03:39.000Nevada, I don't know how you guys say it.
01:03:42.000He had this rally and he referenced the January 6th political prisoners.
01:03:52.000But there are a ton of people who were treated terribly by the justice system who were not giving out that a Democrat or a liberal leaning person would have.
01:04:00.000You know, obviously we know that people who rioted during the summer of 2020 were not brought up on charges the way people who were present at January 6th were.
01:04:08.000It is kind of wild to me that this is one of these issues that some people see completely differently than people who are appearing on television or writing for mainstream media.
01:04:17.000There has yet to be an arrest for the Hamas protests outside of the White House over this weekend that defaced all the Civil War memorials.
01:05:21.000Trump's going to... If this was a popular president with some sort of a record to show for the last three and a half years, you wouldn't have to be spinning the hyperbole or the hypothetical Uh, extreme hypothetical of what will happen if we elect this guy.
01:05:35.000Just tell us why we should elect you, Joe.
01:05:37.000You know, Rachel, rather than tell us what will happen if Trump wins, tell us why we shouldn't elect the guy currently who holds the job.
01:06:41.000We stop funding all these prisons, and then people who engage in, I'm talking about supermax prisons and maximum security, people who are violent offenders, instead of the death penalty, instead of life in prison and, you know, whatever, we just send you to an island.
01:07:57.000There is some researcher who is like, I will approach ABC for the funding for this show because I think it is interesting to see what kind of structures people create when they're on their own, especially if the idea is like, you can't be here because we have a certain moral code and culture and you violated it.
01:08:11.000So go somewhere else and either fall back in line and create this kind of culture or make your own culture and see what happens.
01:08:17.000It's the ultimate Locke vs. Hobbes debate, right, of where is man's virtue?
01:08:22.000Is it in society or does society make him, you know, an animal?
01:08:30.000And they found that extreme violent offenders who were sent to an island, all the criminal tendencies were gone because they had to survive now.
01:08:39.000They no longer had a system that gave them whatever they wanted.
01:08:43.000In modern civilization, you can walk up to someone and steal the food and you're good.
01:08:48.000So these people who are criminals are just taking whatever they want.
01:08:50.000But when they're on an island with nothing, there's no one to steal from, save another guy who is equally as capable as he is and now a real threat, there is no robbery, there is no theft, only risk.
01:09:00.000So the only thing you can do is figure out how to survive.
01:10:03.000And the people who are stronger and more, you know, standing upright, paying attention, that's too big of a risk, they stay away from him.
01:10:09.000You take a guy who goes to prison, he gets charged with attempted murder for trying to rob a store, and he critically injures someone, It's interesting.
01:10:18.000someone in the process. So they're like, that's life in prison or the death penalty. Instead,
01:10:22.000the island. What happens? Well, this guy's not an island with another guy who's just
01:10:25.000like him. These guys are gonna be like, that's not a target.
01:10:28.000You cannot, they will, that's chaos. So they just say, yeah, I'm not fighting that guy. I'm
01:10:34.000not gonna be able to steal from that guy. We're just not gonna go about it. And then what
01:11:56.000And they've been doing it, and they know they're doing it.
01:11:58.000But the problem is, the average American doesn't pay attention to anything, and so they only hear passive news from people who don't know what's going on.
01:12:07.000And that's why you see all these statements like buzzwords, right?
01:12:10.000The term camps, they know, she knows that that's going to trigger a certain emotion for people.
01:12:15.000Or when Trump was convicted, the Biden-Harris campaign released this statement, you know, saying, you know, he is a convicted felon, this and the other.
01:12:22.000But the thing is, we need to vote because the other side is threatening political violence.
01:12:27.000I've never heard that from any Trump supporter.
01:12:31.000It's always coming from I would argue the Biden-Harris campaign that is using this term political violence, political violence over and over again to try to trigger sort of a primal fear because people don't want to go into a time of violence.
01:12:44.000But I'm not actually hearing that from—I'm only hearing it from one side, and it's definitely the Democrats.
01:12:49.000Yeah, the political violence is always funny because the week after Trump held that huge rally in Wildwood, New Jersey with a hundred and something thousand and there were no arrests, the week after there were numerous arrests on the boardwalk of just youth incidents.
01:13:04.000And so it always does seem that whenever the right, heck, they found Hunter Biden guilty.
01:14:36.000But they're going to, of course, smear Trump.
01:14:38.000Kira Rousseau remembers feeling trapped in her high school media center last fall when a phalanx of military personnel and faculty members shut the doors behind her and a hundred classmates before gathering around everyone's phone.
01:15:35.000Under his plan, he says the ASVAB would be used to identify potential military weaknesses and help plug knowledge gaps as U.S.
01:15:41.000defense leaders size up competitors like China.
01:15:44.000If we want to prepare for a great power competition, it's helpful to have a baseline understanding of the pool of potential military service members and their specific aptitudes prior.
01:15:51.000So, after wasting all of our time with this, It's not a story about Trump's orbit.
01:15:56.000It's a story about the opinions of a guy who says, maybe we assess the American population to see who has the potential to fill any possible roles.
01:16:06.000And Trump came out and said, the fake news Washington Post came up with a ridiculous idea that Donald J. Trump will call for mandatory military service.
01:16:13.000This is only a continuation of the eight-year failed attempt to damage me with the voters.
01:16:44.000I was going to say, and you know, I'm thinking of those Washington Post reporters who all gathered and complained that they were being headed by another white cis man, you know, and you wonder, this is the stuff that you guys are putting out that no one is reading, and then you wonder why you're dying.
01:16:59.000I'll tell you this, I think what we need in this country is, in order to vote, you gotta sign up for Selective Service.
01:17:52.000Military service in South Korea is probably like, you learn how to defend the homeland.
01:17:56.000But here it's get shipped off to some foreign country to get your legs blown off.
01:18:00.000It's a horrible misuse of military in the United States in the last 20, 30, 50 years.
01:18:05.000Yeah I think we should have compulsory service for young people and they should have to go defend the southern border because obviously no one's doing that.
01:18:13.000I'm kind of kidding but like the thing is I don't think Trump did this obviously The Washington Post being ridiculous.
01:18:19.000The other part is that we do actually want young people to feel tied to their communities.
01:18:24.000We want them to want to be civically engaged.
01:18:27.000You know, it's something that is good.
01:18:30.000Now, whether it should be mandatory military service or something else, I think we should foster and cultivate young people who believe the country is good and want to give back and participate in it.
01:18:55.000Let's take that and build some basic infrastructure, some communist block style housing.
01:19:01.000And then anyone who's a communist in this country who wants communism, we will offer them communism.
01:19:05.000And we'll say, you can go and live in your communist utopia.
01:19:09.000Well, we've got to keep that island separate from the convict island, because if you said the convicts can easily tell who's weak and they prey upon them, they will crush all of those communists.
01:19:17.000So we have to have those islands very, very separate.
01:19:20.000Well, I would agree, but I actually think what would happen is the communists would weaponize the criminals against their political enemies to destabilize the system and seize power.
01:22:24.000So, I mean, I guess I see the argument for American military presence over Earth, but at the same time, defend the borders and enhance the homeland by making babies.
01:22:32.000I don't want to send our guys off to the Philippines.
01:22:34.000That was probably a miserable assignment.
01:22:36.000The Australian outback is 114 degrees and dry, and every spider and snake is trying
01:22:59.000Don't go near, because you might get hit.
01:23:00.000For all I know, they're shooting outward, away from the base.
01:23:02.000Near Pine Gap, there's another—well, I think my mic peaked there—there's another base that has this giant metal rod sticking up into the sky, and any plane that gets near it just falls out of the sky.
01:24:40.000There is apparently a government underneath the government that's ready to rock and roll and probably would take control of all these military bases.
01:27:20.000It's pretty fancy, but it's beautiful.
01:27:22.000Underneath it, you're saying that this is where government...
01:27:25.000So underneath this building, there's a big bunker that they used, they prepared, so that the government could go there in case of emergency.
01:27:56.000Yeah, I think it was World War Two, right?
01:27:58.000It was built for during Yeah, it was built during World War Two.
01:28:02.000And it was the place in case DC is bombed, or if the Germans invade, get yourself to West Virginia.
01:28:09.000And it's in the middle of nowhere, West Virginia, you look at it on a map, and it should take you about an hour and a half to drive from where I live.
01:28:17.000And in reality takes about four and a half hours.
01:28:19.000West Virginia roads are beautiful and wide, thanks to the Senate's favorite Klansman, Robert Byrd, who had tons of money for West Virginia roads when he was the senator.
01:29:05.000But you can see the tunnel right there.
01:29:08.000I wonder what the tunneling system's like.
01:29:09.000Yeah, I think the order in World War II was you just gotta get yourself there.
01:29:16.000I'm sure they probably flew some people, but I think it was if you were a member of Congress or important, you had to get yourself to West Virginia.
01:29:34.000We should be getting a sponsorship from Greenbrier for all this lovely... For all this attention we're giving it.
01:29:41.000I will lie from the bunker at Greenbrier.
01:29:43.000And they expect you to show up wearing a suit jacket and nice clothes and how much does it cost to... I bet it's probably not super expensive, right?
01:29:52.000I probably not because it's... I don't know.
01:30:20.000I know you can do like ATVing and stuff that like, you know, it's a historic hotel and I'm like, but West Virginia, you know, you can do these outdoor activities, so.
01:30:28.000I just think we should do, you know, IRL live from the bunker one day.
01:30:31.000We can have Jim Justice on, it'll be great.
01:30:34.000Yep, there is no communication devices allowed in the bunker, that's what it said, and no backpacks, nothing to conceal anything.
01:30:39.000It's gonna make it hard, but I'm sure they would work.
01:30:42.000I'm just kidding, I'm not trying to give our tech team a hard time.
01:32:06.000Power of the future, well we fight for energy jobs, right?
01:32:08.000Under the understanding that these are geographical jobs, they're historic jobs, they're legacy jobs, they're vital to our national security and all that, but outside of that, and outside of even our national economy, These are coal jobs in West Virginia, or oil and gas jobs outside of Nome.
01:32:27.000And for the men and women who live there, this is their livelihood.
01:32:30.000And they get to live in their own community, and live with their family, and live with grandma down the block.
01:32:36.000But when we take away their jobs under climate change, we send them all to Anchorage.
01:33:14.000But you learn to code, and that's what we're doing, and it's crushing our economy, it's hurting our national security, but more than anything else, it's crushing rural America, and that's why I started the organization.
01:33:25.000We can keep turning the coal and oil into graphene, so we can keep pumping that stuff out of the ground.
01:33:30.000These guys have got to recognize it's not just about fuel, that you can turn it into graphene and make computer processors with it.
01:34:59.000There are four main types of coal and they burn at different levels of heat.
01:35:04.000So, there's metallurgical coal, it's hard to say, which is what you use to make a lot of steel, right?
01:35:12.000There's coal that you use when you make cement, and then there's, I think it's bituminous coal, which is the most common, which is what you burn to make electricity, right?
01:35:20.000There's lots of different types of coal that are used at different heat points for making different products.
01:35:27.000But I don't think the administration is differentiating.
01:35:29.000I think they're just saying writ large, get rid of coal.
01:36:22.000We've talked about this on a lot of different issues just in this conversation alone.
01:36:26.000And yet they have the power to make these decisions and they have the haughtiness to think that because they are in Congress they should make these decisions.
01:36:34.000But they don't have the slightest damn clue what they're doing.
01:36:36.000And they also don't care that they don't know what they're talking about.
01:36:39.000Because I'm the elected official and therefore I have some preternatural gift towards authority and you just have to listen to me because I'm in charge, right?
01:36:50.000This system began to unravel, I think, the only silver lining from COVID was during COVID.
01:36:56.000I think up until then, Government said, do this and just shut up and do it.
01:37:00.000And you were like, well, you know what?
01:37:02.000Like they did say, and people went along with it.
01:37:04.000But COVID, I think was the first time as a country writ large, maybe the Vietnam War, but the COVID was the first time as a country writ large that the evidence said, this is stupid, but why do I still have to do it?
01:37:39.000People were burning their draft cards.
01:37:41.000I was fortunate to be raised by a veteran of the Vietnam War.
01:37:45.000He was served in the Navy and didn't see action, but he was like, God, like he just knew that the evil vileness that a government could become.

01:38:44.000If Elon Musk announced that he was creating an X phone that was like integrated with your X account, and it had like X pay, he's got to do it.
01:39:23.000But Elon, make the regular phone, and then shut up and take my money.
01:39:26.000Yeah, well his comments today about how he would ban Apple products at his companies if they go forward with their AI integration makes me wonder if he is thinking about it.
01:39:35.000Particularly ChatGPT, the Apple said they're considering putting ChatGPT on board all their... Yep.
01:39:41.000I wonder if you would see a mass exodus from Apple if people did that.
01:39:44.000Has Elon ever built a product before, though?
01:39:46.000Does he have a history of building anything?
01:40:58.000The challenge with... I mean, like, yes...
01:41:02.000But it's so exhausting, because what Destiny will end up doing is just saying, I will assert a thing that's not true, and then you must prove otherwise.
01:41:15.000And then if I say something like, what you're saying is not true, and you must prove otherwise, I'll say, no, I don't.
01:41:19.000And so those are the kind of conversations I'm not really interested in having.
01:41:21.000That being said, I think David Pakman is interested in coming on the Culture War show, but just the two of us.
01:42:42.000Factory that melts down uranium and corium into the oceans bad news. We don't want to do that again
01:42:48.000Yes, but also if you have a nine point eight Richter scale tsunami you got bigger fish to fry
01:42:55.000And that's what I should have told Angela Merkel when she banned nuclear energy as a response to Fukushima.
01:43:01.000You want to say, lady, if Germany's going to get hit by a tsunami, trust me, your nuclear reactors are not going to be your biggest problem.
01:43:07.000I mean Japan's always gonna have some sort of seismic activity.
01:43:50.000Okay, so first, let's do some very rudimentary brain math.
01:43:56.000To have people live on top of a structurally sound vacuum, which does not have the density to displace air around it, the platform would have to be massive compared to the structures on top of it.
01:44:10.000We're talking, like, I can't even begin to fathom how massive a vacuum would have to be to have a single house on it.
01:44:35.000I'm sure anyone who's watching could actually do the displacement formula for the material required to act.
01:44:44.000Okay, so first, you need a structurally sound material that can hold a massive vacuum and carry things on top of it, unless they hung from it.
01:44:55.000That might be easier to do than being on top of it.
01:45:07.000And then it would be like a graphene aerogel or a hydrogel.
01:45:10.000It would be ripped apart in two seconds, dude.
01:45:12.000Well, the graphene hydrogel is machinable.
01:45:13.000Like, you can hit it with a hammer and make it flat, and it's super lightweight, hydrogel, this stuff.
01:45:18.000So there are metamaterials that potentially could do it, and then you'd have lots of little vacuums inside.
01:45:22.000It would crumple, the vacuum would- Well, if you had one big one, but if you had lots of little spheres inside that were each vacuumed out, if like 70% of them got damaged, the other 30% would remain functional, so you could take like hull breaches and stuff and the rest of the boat will stay.
01:45:37.000Who wants to do the math and create the displacement formula for Earth's atmosphere, especially at the higher altitudes, too?
01:45:44.000You're gonna need massive, massive- Yeah, low-altitude flying cities.
01:45:49.000I mean, they did do- you guys ever hear of Project Loon?
01:45:52.000Google was launching balloons in the air that carried internet, so that they would effectively be- Oh, yeah.
01:45:57.000They're not in orbit, they're in the atmosphere, but at the very top, just floating in these big balloons, and then they wanted to deliver internet and cell phone to, like, remote areas.
01:46:06.000I don't know what ever happened with this.
01:46:07.000They scrapped it for some reason, didn't they?
01:47:24.000Or is it always that the lead is going to be too dense for however much gas is in it, it will always fall?
01:47:29.000No matter how big you make it to get enough gas, it's never... Right, that's why I think Ian's Sky Vacuum would only work with a future metamaterial that is ultra light but super sturdy.
01:48:36.000And I think it puts Democrats in a real weird position if we all jump behind Hunter Biden to get the Supreme Court to overturn his conviction and do away with Form 4473.
01:48:48.000Imagine if Hunter Biden's the guy who ended federal background checks.
01:48:52.000I have this – I watched the TV show Gilmore Girls all the time growing up, and one of the characters has this enemy who suddenly is supporting him, and he goes, get off my side!
01:49:00.000I feel like that's what the Democrats would say to us.
01:49:03.000They would be like, no, don't make this a two-way thing.
01:50:14.000That's why I was saying, the moment you get one of those cards, they put you in the database, you got a card and they're going to say, nope, no guns, never have a gun.
01:50:21.000I saw that the head of the DEA was working with, I think Matt Gates to take marijuana off of schedule one.
01:50:27.000Yeah, they want to reclassify it as Schedule 3 and, you know, for all kinds of reasons.
01:50:34.000The thing is, sometimes they make these changes and then they don't apply retroactively, so I don't know that that would be grounds for someone in that position to argue, well, I was denied before or anyone who's been convicted of having something under Schedule 1.
01:50:46.000Like, it's not totally clear what legal avenues are opened up by this, but it's definitely worth pursuing.
01:50:54.000Noor Elahi says, I am very angry about what they're doing to President Trump, but at the end of the day, the 4473 is unconstitutional and shame on Hunter's lawyers if they don't appeal his conviction to the Supreme Court.
01:51:04.000Should Creepy Joe win, re-election shall not be infringed.
01:51:34.000If the son did nothing wrong and the father has the legal authority to do it, then yeah.
01:51:39.000Let's say a 17-year-old kid was driving his car, and he's going to the mall, and as he's pulling out, he rear-ends another vehicle, panics, and drives off.
01:52:26.000You think he should be like, I mean, if we're talking about a 17 year old, I think it's a challenge, right?
01:52:32.000Because if you're about to be an adult, if we want to raise people who have good values, part of that is facing the consequences of your actions.
01:52:40.000And it's hard to say because obviously, like, do we trust the police?
01:53:11.000Part of it is also that Biden said he wouldn't pardon him.
01:53:14.000But he didn't say he wouldn't commute his sentence, which would leave the criminal record intact.
01:53:18.000So I think that it is likely that Biden intervenes.
01:53:22.000But I do think that this case and the way that Hunter has been treated by the government and the media is different than just a teenager who gets a car.
01:53:31.000I think most parents would probably take the blame for their kids, depending on the severity of it.
01:53:36.000And so that's why the hypothetical I chose is, he accidentally rear-ended a car that was parked, and then panicked and drove home.
01:53:43.000It's not like he's a malicious dude who's murdering people or anything.
01:53:46.000Now, if the kid was going around strangling cats and killed somebody, the parents should be like, he's nuts, please do it.
01:53:53.000But a kid who's facing serious charges, I mean, I guess the issue is the parent might be like, look, you're 17, you're gonna get a slap on the wrist, but it's your fault.
01:54:03.000I think a lot of parents would be like, I'll take the blame for you.
01:54:04.000I've seen a couple videos of people who are former, you know, serious drug addicts, heroin, whatever else, who I watched one interview with a girl who was like, oh, my dad ultimately let me get arrested.
01:54:13.000Like, after years of trying to intervene, I would just relapse.
01:54:27.000You have to face the consequence of what's going on, and that ultimately is what changed your life.
01:54:30.000I don't know if that's true for everybody.
01:54:31.000Again, criminal justice is a very complicated system in America, but I think especially in Hunter Biden's case, if we're going to go with the he is an addict who was in the throes of addiction during this time, I think it sends a weird signal to be like, But luckily, his dad's the president, so he doesn't have to face the consequences, where millions of Americans do.
01:54:53.000But if he were, I think he would commute it, because he gets in the talking point of, I'm trying to create a culture of family values, and they're going after my son because he's me.
01:55:04.000He will try to spin it as a campaign issue, like, this is just the evil Republicans coming after me.
01:55:11.000And from what I know, he's probably going to get sentenced in October, which would be interesting because what would that do to people right before the election?
01:55:29.000Does that disqualify me from purchasing a gun or a parts kit?
01:55:33.000I believe if you are prescribed the medication and you are not wielding a weapon while under the influence of said drug, then you are fine to own the weapon.
01:55:42.000I'm pretty sure, however, They may try and claim whatever mental issue you're having is grounds to bar you from getting a gun if you're diagnosed or something.
01:57:03.000I mean, at least the two that I remember reading, they had other heart conditions, but the argument was that they were unaware of how much caffeine was in it.
01:58:01.000And if they are, then they're basically Taking a dump on the Constitution.
01:58:05.000But so long as these massive multinational war machine companies are producing and holding nuclear weapons, then yes, the fact is, private entities can own these weapons.
01:58:19.000And that's the thing too, it's like, if the argument is, yes, but they're companies, sure, form your own company, fill out the form, and then your company has the weapons.
01:58:25.000I know a bunch of dudes who have, like, we're like level 4 FFL or whatever it's called, and they've got all the bells and whistles and all the guns because their companies are legally allowed to have them because they're manufacturers and distributors and things like that.
01:58:39.000So, I do understand there's nuance to it.
01:59:00.000Joshua Peak says, it's gonna be like Rick and Morty when the dollar goes to zero and the military guy is like, who is paying me to yell at this guy?
01:59:14.000Charlie says, I live in Arizona and like to go camping at least 20 times a year up north.
01:59:19.000With the illegals coming in, I don't fear bears anymore.
01:59:21.000I fear the groups of six-plus Mexicans chasing me off from dispersed camping.
01:59:26.000I had this experience on the flight from Miami, and it was this little kid, didn't speak any English, and then his grandmother didn't speak any English.
01:59:34.000And she looked at me and was like, habla espanol?
02:00:44.000If you go to Casper.com and you buy Alex Stein's Primetime Grind, if you use the promo code VOTEALEX, you'll get an additional bag at half off.

02:01:06.000And then we're gonna put them against each other and see who can sell the most.
02:01:45.000Thanks for letting me talk about coal for a little bit.
02:01:47.000Gotta get in some fossil fuel conversation.
