Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Iran Orders DIRECT STRIKE On Israel After Assassination In Tehran w-Fenix Ammunition | Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 Peace.

00:00:16.000 Iran is claiming that Israel launched an airstrike in Iranian territory, killing the leader of Hamas.

00:00:25.000 In Beirut, there was an Israeli airstrike killing another military leader.

00:00:30.000 And so this looks like a direct escalation.

00:00:33.000 Now Iran has ordered, according to the New York Times, a direct strike on Israel.

00:00:38.000 And I'm sitting here like rolling my eyes because, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay, we get it.

00:00:42.000 I mean, this is it.

00:00:43.000 It's going to be in increments.

00:00:46.000 There's not going to be a single day where Iran just, you know, you see the Ayatollah stand up on a pedestal and say, it's World War III, baby, let's roll. 0.85

00:00:52.000 It is going to be moment by moment.

00:00:55.000 Step after step, until at one point we say, hey, maybe this regional conflict, combined with the other regional conflicts, is bringing us into, or we are at, a World War III scenario.

00:01:04.000 Or it could just be this remains a regional conflict, but the conflict with Iran has been bubbling up for decades.

00:01:09.000 Sooner or later, that powder keg is about to burst, so we'll talk about that.

00:01:12.000 This is a crazy story.

00:01:13.000 I don't know if we've yet gotten confirmation or a statement from Israel as to whether or not they actually assassinated This guy, the Hamas leader.

00:01:22.000 So we'll see.

00:01:22.000 But we do have other more fun news.

00:01:24.000 Donald Trump spoke to black journalists in Chicago.

00:01:27.000 And wow, this dude did not play games.

00:01:31.000 He did not pander.

00:01:33.000 He struck back.

00:01:34.000 He He was insulting when need be.

00:01:38.000 Maybe not necessarily insulting, but he called them out for being hostile.

00:01:41.000 He made jokes.

00:01:42.000 The audience was hooting, booing, sometimes cheering.

00:01:46.000 It's actually really interesting, so we'll talk about that.

00:01:48.000 And as a result, Trump's being roasted for saying Kamala Harris wasn't black.

00:01:51.000 She was Indian for a long time, then all of a sudden, one day, she decided to be black, and this has led to another big controversy in the news cycle.

00:01:57.000 We'll talk about that and a whole bunch more.

00:01:59.000 Before we get started, my friends, head over to castbrew.com, buy coffee from us, because it's the best coffee you'll ever have.

00:02:05.000 I promise, and I'm allowed to say that because it's an opinion, and I genuinely do think it is the best coffee you will ever have.

00:02:10.000 Appalachian Nights is everybody's favorite, followed by Rise of the Birdo Jr., but Ian's Graphene Dream is the sleeper that's slowly taking over.

00:02:17.000 We're getting rave reviews for the lowest acidity coffee.

00:02:20.000 And I wonder if it has a lot to do with some people saying it's, like, easier on their gut.

00:02:23.000 That's what Ian's idea was with making a low-acidity coffee.

00:03:33.000 Ah, yes, indeed, indeed.

00:03:35.000 All right.

00:03:35.000 Well, thanks for joining us.

00:03:37.000 It'll be fun.

00:03:38.000 We got Libby hanging out.

00:03:39.000 I'm hanging out.

00:03:39.000 I'm Libby Emmons.

00:03:40.000 I'm with the Postmillennial and HumanEvents.com.

00:03:42.000 Glad to be here.

00:03:43.000 I'm glad you're both here.

00:03:44.000 I'm Hannah Klobremlow.

00:03:45.000 I'm a writer with SCNR.com, a Skinner News follow-their-work, Atom Gas News, and let's get started.

00:03:49.000 This is the first story from the New York Times.

00:03:51.000 Iran's leader orders attack on Israel for Hania killing, officials say.

00:03:56.000 Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei ordered retaliation after a humiliating security failure as Iran once again balances, showing strength against the risk of escalation.

00:04:06.000 On top of that, we also have Israel striking Beirut, saying it's killed Hezbollah commander, that's Fuad Shakur, in response to a rocket attack.

00:04:15.000 It looks like both of these attacks, assuming this one on Iran is actually from Israel, is in retaliation for there was a rocket strike in Israel, killed several children.

00:04:26.000 And so, look, this is war.

00:04:28.000 Now there's going to be a retaliation for the retaliation, a retaliation for the retaliation, retaliation for the retaliation.

00:04:32.000 You see where this goes.

00:04:32.000 This is what war is.

00:04:34.000 I think it's silly for us to be like, they're retaliating and now Iran's going to retaliate.

00:04:37.000 No.

00:04:37.000 It's the next step in an ongoing war.

00:04:40.000 Iran ordering an attack on Israel should not be like a breaking headline.

00:04:44.000 It should be, Iran orders continuation of ongoing conflict with direct intervention, or something to that effect.

00:04:50.000 And sooner or later we're going to get to the point where When there's active shooting between nations, and we already had the rocket fire between Israel and Iran, we're just going to say the war continues.

00:05:00.000 So I suppose the big questions here are, man, Israel will be dragging the United States into a massive regional conflict that I think you got the John Bolton to the neocons salivating over and begging for. 0.76

00:05:14.000 I can't wait.

00:05:15.000 Before Donald Trump is going to be able to get in and tamper down any of this stuff, they're going to make this war happen so that he cannot.

00:05:21.000 Yeah, I mean, that was kind of my theory, except in Ukraine.

00:05:26.000 I figured if they thought Trump was going to win, they would try to make things so bad between Russia and Ukraine, get us so involved, and more or less drop all of that on his lap right before the election.

00:05:39.000 And I guess now they have another opportunity to do that here with Israel.

00:05:45.000 You know, Israel is a small country.

00:05:47.000 They're surrounded by enemies on all sides.

00:05:51.000 And I'm not so sure that we really understand what we're getting ourselves involved in.

00:05:56.000 I think people vastly overestimate the ability of the U.S.

00:06:01.000 military-industrial complex to produce the amount of munitions that would be required to defend Israel against all those countries.

00:06:09.000 And it just doesn't work that way.

00:06:11.000 You know, they're burning through Patriot missiles like crazy.

00:06:15.000 Our production capacity is about 30 to 35 a month.

00:06:19.000 And if you're going to tool up a new factory to be making double, triple that amount, that takes years.

00:06:25.000 It doesn't matter how much money you spend, it takes time to hire the employees, build the factories, etc.

00:06:30.000 And meanwhile, Iran is kind of going the other direction.

00:06:32.000 I really think the whole Iran trying to get a nuclear weapon is one of the biggest psyops that we've fallen for. 0.98

00:06:39.000 I think what they've realized is, technologically, that's really unfeasible for them.

00:06:43.000 What makes more sense?

00:06:44.000 For them to spend billions of dollars to produce one nuclear missile and fire it at Israel, 0.81

00:06:50.000 which we would shoot out of the sky immediately, or they could take half that amount of money,

00:06:55.000 a third of that amount of money, they could make 50,000 small capacity drones at a cost

00:07:03.000 of maybe $25,000 to $40,000 each, and what are you going to do when they fly 10,000 drones?

00:07:09.000 Last time they fired, what, 400 drones?

00:07:10.000 And we thought it was a great success that we shot them all out of the sky, but we spent

00:07:14.000 $3 billion to take down maybe a few tens of millions of dollars worth of drones that they

00:07:20.000 can manufacture by the hundreds.

00:07:22.000 That we're going to need to counter drone warfare with drones.

00:07:25.000 Correct, right.

00:07:25.000 You're going to need a net of drones and create a drone defense system.

00:07:30.000 Yeah.

00:07:30.000 But you know what I'm wondering, because on my morning show I had some people super chat about this, is what's happening, the attack, assuming it is from Israel, Because Donald Trump survived.

00:07:41.000 And it's an interesting correlation, but the idea being, shortly after the assassination attempt, news broke that Iran was planning an assassination of Trump, and that kind of just disappeared overnight.

00:07:50.000 Like, it didn't—it blipped on the radar and then was gone.

00:07:52.000 It blipped.

00:07:53.000 We looked at it and then it was gone.

00:07:54.000 Yeah.

00:07:55.000 Because the narrative was, many people believe, if Trump were to have lost his life, then the media would have reported it was an Iranian-backed attack.

00:08:05.000 When the FBI came out and said they found social media for the shooter that was anti-Semitic and anti-immigration, they would have argued that it was because of Trump's support of Israel.

00:08:14.000 And then Nikki Haley becomes the nominee.

00:08:16.000 Whether it's Biden or Kamala or Nikki Haley, they're all pro-war.

00:08:19.000 Nikki Haley demands retaliation for Trump's life being taken, and that's how they get their casts as belly for war with Iran. 1.00

00:08:26.000 That didn't happen, so maybe that was never gonna happen, who knows?

00:08:30.000 And now we have Israel striking Iranian territory, Iran retaliating, how much longer until Joe Biden bumps into a shelf and goes, and then accidentally hits the nuclear button and declares war on Iran?

00:08:45.000 Well, if Joe Biden stays in office, I mean, he doesn't have anything on his schedule.

00:08:49.000 He doesn't seem to be doing anything at all.

00:08:51.000 He was asked, I think they were asked in the briefing room today if he's still governing, and they were like, oh yeah, for sure.

00:08:56.000 He's definitely still governing.

00:08:58.000 He's still in charge.

00:08:59.000 He's sleeping.

00:09:01.000 Yeah, he's sleeping.

00:09:02.000 He's on cold meds, whatever it is.

00:09:03.000 He's definitely not playing golf.

00:09:05.000 He's, what, eating ice cream and sniffing little kids?

00:09:08.000 I don't know.

00:09:09.000 Actually, there was a video recently of him sniffing a kid.

00:09:12.000 I can't believe it.

00:09:12.000 It was from like a couple weeks ago or something?

00:09:14.000 And one of his senior advisors just left to go join the Kamala Harris campaign.

00:09:17.000 I mean, you're probably going to start seeing this massive connection.

00:09:19.000 We're going to see a lot more of that.

00:09:21.000 Which is fascinating because I think part of it is that they want Kamala Harris to be front and center.

00:09:24.000 And so not only do they not want Joe Biden talking publicly, because that has never helped them, but now they don't want anything to distract from her.

00:09:33.000 So they're even more incentivized to keep him sort of, you know, on the couch.

00:09:36.000 They see the next three months as a preview of the Kamala Harris presidency, so they're going to try to put her on the pedestal, make her appear to be the one in charge without actually saying it, and that way they can just slide right through the election. 0.99

00:09:52.000 They want her to look as presidential as possible so that it just looks like a fait accompli. 1.00

00:09:57.000 And you see this with the messaging, especially on social media, like the Biden account will tweet out something like, we accomplished this.

00:10:03.000 Her account will immediately come in and say, yes, Joe Biden and I, me, the head of the Biden-Harris campaign or whatever.

00:10:09.000 Which is why I think, yeah, I think it's really important to, if she wants to take on all his responsibilities now, including just drop in to the scheduled debates and things like that, I think it's time to really hold her accountable for Biden's record.

00:10:23.000 But what's this narrative that the Kamala campaign is pushing where it's like, she comes out and she's like, I'm gonna add more border guards, but Donald Trump opposes border guards.

00:10:34.000 It's like her whole point is basically like, I may be the vice president, but I'm not going to do anything about anything right now.

00:10:42.000 And Trump even says this, he's like, I don't understand, like she's the vice president.

00:10:44.000 You could do it now.

00:10:45.000 She could do it now.

00:10:46.000 What is she campaigning on? 0.68

00:10:47.000 Yeah.

00:10:48.000 Just do the thing.

00:10:49.000 Yeah.

00:10:49.000 She's like, Trump opposes this.

00:10:51.000 When?

00:10:51.000 Four years ago?

00:10:52.000 What are you talking about?

00:10:53.000 And she'll talk about more recent border legislation that she'll be like, well, it was going to get passed, but then Trump directed all of his cronies to be against it.

00:10:59.000 And it's like, yeah, it's because it was a bad bill.

00:11:01.000 Like no one liked this bill.

00:11:03.000 It's just a way for them to put money into... But that's politicking.

00:11:07.000 Whether the bill is good or bad is immaterial, right?

00:11:10.000 You can lie, you can claim one thing, you can claim another.

00:11:11.000 The point is, she's in office, he's not.

00:11:14.000 Well, Trump told his people to block it.

00:11:16.000 Wait, wait, wait, you're vice president.

00:11:17.000 What are you going to do?

00:11:18.000 Nothing's going to change.

00:11:19.000 You get elected, what's different?

00:11:21.000 You can't go to Joe Biden right now and say, hey, do thing?

00:11:24.000 Or is the argument that when you get elected, all of a sudden Trump's going to stop trying to meddle in politics?

00:11:29.000 What's the argument?

00:11:30.000 Meanwhile, the other thing, too, is she has the exact same staff as Biden, as Hannah Clare just pointed out.

00:11:35.000 She's getting his, you know, White House staffers now.

00:11:38.000 So if they weren't capable of getting any of this stuff done for the past three and a half years, why would they be able to get it done over the next four?

00:11:45.000 And a lot of Biden's staff also are veterans of the Obama administration, right?

00:11:49.000 Well, it's the continuation.

00:11:51.000 Kamala is just a continuation of the Obama administration.

00:11:53.000 It's the same thing as Obamacare.

00:11:54.000 You've got to pass the bill to see what's in it.

00:11:56.000 They don't want to do it now because that would ruin things prior to the election.

00:12:00.000 And they know that this bill, all it's going to do is, as I said, they're going to put a bunch of money into hiring border agents to process immigrant applications.

00:12:10.000 They're not going to put any money into actually stopping the flow of people across the border.

00:12:15.000 They're just going to say, well, hey, look, illegal immigration has dropped by 50%.

00:12:18.000 Yeah, that's because you've got a guy filling out paperwork and just making them all legalized You're rolling out a second CP1 app to make it easier for people to cross the border.

00:12:29.000 It appears that it's less, but now we have the same number of people.

00:12:33.000 Back to the story, though.

00:12:35.000 The question I have for you guys is, do we have war with Iran before November?

00:12:39.000 Open war, U.S.

00:12:41.000 involvement.

00:12:42.000 I think it's more likely that we'll have open involvement in Ukraine, personally, before.

00:12:48.000 I think that one's going far worse, but it'll depend.

00:12:52.000 It really depends on what Iran does in response to this.

00:12:55.000 If they do the same thing that they did last time at a larger scale, then yeah, if they actually manage to land some hits in Tel Aviv or some other large city, I think it could go from zero to a hundred in a week.

00:13:10.000 It's tough because...

00:13:12.000 Who actually wants to engage in a conflict to that degree?

00:13:15.000 Iran certainly doesn't. 0.98

00:13:17.000 No.

00:13:17.000 Does Israel?

00:13:18.000 I mean, the United States does.

00:13:20.000 And so that's what Iran's concern is.

00:13:21.000 If they strike on Israel, the U.S.

00:13:23.000 immediately intervenes.

00:13:25.000 And then I take a look at their building.

00:13:26.000 You know, the U.S.

00:13:27.000 tried building that beachhead, which failed.

00:13:28.000 Yeah.

00:13:29.000 I mean, $230 million.

00:13:29.000 Which is here.

00:13:30.000 That Gazapir thing? 0.99

00:13:32.000 Yeah.

00:13:34.000 Yep, but I think the point of that is the U.S.

00:13:37.000 has the Mediterranean route for bringing shipments into Israel, which they can use as staging ground for a war in the region.

00:13:43.000 Not to mention Iraq and Afghanistan, depending on what access we still have there.

00:13:47.000 Yeah.

00:13:49.000 Like I said, it'll really depend on what Iran decides to do in response.

00:13:54.000 I can't imagine that they're going to do nothing, but do they really want to escalate it to the point where they're in a direct conflict?

00:14:00.000 I don't know.

00:14:01.000 But it's also Lebanon, too.

00:14:02.000 Yeah, it's also Lebanon.

00:14:03.000 You know, it's tough.

00:14:04.000 Those countries, you'd think that all of them would band together against Israel, but there's a lot of, you know, internal conflict between those countries, a lot of religious differences.

00:14:13.000 You have the Shiites, you have the Sunnis. 1.00

00:14:15.000 So it's not easy to say that they'll all just get together and do it.

00:14:18.000 But at some point, You know, even the worst of enemies can become friends for the purposes of defeating what they think is the greater enemy.

00:14:27.000 And, you know, Israel's a tiny country.

00:14:29.000 I mean, it's only 40 miles across in some places.

00:14:33.000 I think the big risk we're facing is Iran's retaliation could come in the form of subterfuge, cyber attacks.

00:14:39.000 Yeah.

00:14:39.000 And so there could be economic damage that is more difficult for us to understand.

00:14:43.000 It is entirely likely that there's been industrial accidents that have actually been cyber attacks, and we wouldn't know.

00:14:48.000 They're not going to tell us.

00:14:50.000 government came out and said, remember that refinery that blew up?

00:14:50.000 Because if the U.S.

00:14:52.000 That was actually Iran targeting us through cyber warfare. 0.59

00:14:55.000 They'd have to admit that we don't have the security and the defense, and that U.S.

00:14:58.000 actions led to a retaliation for some reason.

00:15:01.000 So likely they'll just ignore it.

00:15:03.000 Like, the American citizens are going to face some kind of detriment from Iran who will try to cause problems for us. 1.00

00:15:10.000 They probably are doing it right now anyway.

00:15:13.000 And then we don't even know what's going on because the government doesn't want to admit its failures.

00:15:17.000 Yeah, and I think most people vastly overestimate the amount of cyber security that your average industrial facility has.

00:15:24.000 I worked for an insurance company for 10 years and they spent tens of millions of dollars on cyber security because they had personally identifiable information, things like that.

00:15:32.000 But your average manufacturing facility, the problem is a lot of the machinery and equipment that we use, Those companies are pushing all of us to connect those things to the internet so that they can do remote troubleshooting and help solve problems.

00:15:45.000 You can track manufacturing data, all that kind of thing.

00:15:48.000 But, you know, the firewalls that exist for programmable logic controllers is very rudimentary.

00:15:58.000 That to me that worries me more than even an attack say on the electrical grid I mean that worries me as well But I think we're spending a lot more money trying to shore up security in that area but all of the individual manufacturers making Everything we need for appliances, computers, cars, weapons, all that stuff.

00:16:20.000 Most of these companies have absolutely no idea that they're even vulnerable to things like that.

00:16:25.000 Do you think that American policymakers' understanding of national security has pivoted with the internet age?

00:16:31.000 Do they think that the most likely attack is a physical attack from a different country, or do they realize that our online connection makes us vulnerable too?

00:16:41.000 I think the military knows it.

00:16:45.000 Their stuff's very robust.

00:16:46.000 They spend a lot of money trying to keep their computers from being able to be hacked, their com systems, things like that.

00:16:53.000 But again, how do you, I won't say force, because I certainly wouldn't want them to force that upon industrial manufacturers.

00:17:02.000 Most people don't even really understand that that's a risk.

00:17:05.000 And so it kind of falls on the companies who are building the logic controllers and the machinery and the equipment.

00:17:10.000 And I think they're just far behind the times.

00:17:15.000 I don't think that they perceive that as... I think if you went to your average machinery manufacturing company and said, what are you guys doing to make sure that my bullet assembly machine is unhackable?

00:17:27.000 They would just look at you with a blank stare.

00:17:30.000 Because it's just not really on their radar.

00:17:32.000 You know, they're worried about production, you know, workflow.

00:17:37.000 They're trying to make the machines run faster, have less errors in your products, things like that.

00:17:42.000 But I don't really think that they have any idea that that's even a risk.

00:17:46.000 Let's jump to some domestic politics with this story from the Postmillennial.

00:17:50.000 The big domestic news is that Trump spoke at a black journalist conference, and the Postmillennial says he effortlessly handles hostile questions at black journalist conference in Chicago.

00:18:00.000 I've only seen clips, Libby wrote this one up, but the clips that I've seen from Donald Trump, it is... It's amazing.

00:18:09.000 He doesn't play games, he doesn't pander, and I think he knew... This is what the Libertarian Convention should have been.

00:18:16.000 Him going up there, and when he gets a hostile question, he's hostile right back, he makes jokes, he laughs, he gives real answers, and I think people are going to respect it.

00:18:26.000 I think Trump entered this, speaking at the National Association of Black Journalists, he entered this knowing that they're going to ask hostile questions and insult him, and he's going to push back because he might actually win 5, 10, 20 percent by being real and not pandering, because there are people who don't want to be pandered to.

00:18:43.000 So, actually, you wrote it.

00:18:45.000 Why don't you just tell us what's going on?

00:18:46.000 Yeah, so this was actually, as I said, this was sort of amazing.

00:18:49.000 He got up there, he had this interview with three black journalists, including Harris Faulkner from Fox, who he's spoken to a lot, and so they had the most comfy exchange, I will say.

00:19:03.000 But he also handled the more divisive questions.

00:19:06.000 He was asked specifically about what are black jobs, because he was talking about immigration and saying, You know, illegal immigrants are coming in, they're taking Hispanic jobs, they're taking black jobs.

00:19:17.000 What are black jobs? 0.99

00:19:18.000 Well, I take issue with this because, at first, they're offended, like, what's a DEI hire?

00:19:23.000 What's diversity?

00:19:23.000 Exactly.

00:19:24.000 And so it's like, when Trump was asked about, he referred to black journalists as animals and things like this, and they're saying, like, how dare you insult a person who happens to be black? 0.89

00:19:35.000 Then, when he says black jobs, they're like, what is that supposed to mean? 0.97

00:19:38.000 No, no, no.

00:19:39.000 You can't quantify Everything as categorically, you know, wrong or you can't say your statements pertaining to black are bad.

00:19:48.000 And then when Trump says, okay, black jobs ago, what?

00:19:50.000 Oh, now we're offended again.

00:19:51.000 You can't be offended at everything.

00:19:52.000 Yeah, they were if they're offended, you know, if you do, he's offended, they're offended.

00:19:56.000 And if you don't, either way.

00:19:58.000 So he had a great answer for it, which was black jobs are jobs. 1.00

00:20:01.000 Is it jobs anybody would have?

00:20:02.000 Yeah.

00:20:02.000 And what I thought was really fascinating is this question was asked by a bunch of people who very clearly have black jobs.

00:20:09.000 I mean, the whole conference is a black professionals organization for black people with these specific jobs.

00:20:17.000 So what's a black job? 0.96

00:20:18.000 Well, journalism is a black job. 0.95

00:20:20.000 That's for one. 0.93

00:20:21.000 I mean, you're all here testifying to that.

00:20:24.000 Why are they acting like they're offended?

00:20:25.000 He means jobs held by black people. 0.59

00:20:27.000 That's exactly right. 0.88

00:20:27.000 And he's like, and they're losing these jobs to non-citizens who are being allowed in the country. 0.88

00:20:31.000 Let's play this clip.

00:20:32.000 This is a minute 45 from the conference.

00:20:34.000 I mean, it is not lost on us how divided we are as a country.

00:20:39.000 And as you were coming today, we really got to see that we are divided along the lines of race, along the lines of gender.

00:20:46.000 And there is this question of in this moment where we are, Why come here?

00:20:53.000 What is your message today?

00:20:56.000 My message is to stop people from invading our country that are taking, frankly, a lot of problems with it. 0.99

00:21:04.000 But one of the big problems, and a lot of the journalists in this room I know and I have great respect for, a lot of the journalists in this room are black. 1.00

00:21:13.000 I will tell you that coming... 0.87

00:21:15.000 I love the laughter because Trump is literally at the National Association of Black Journalists and he says, a lot of them here are black and they start laughing. 0.95

00:21:21.000 Coming from the border are millions and millions of people that happen to be taking black jobs. 0.80

00:21:28.000 You had the best. 0.92

00:21:30.000 What exactly is a black job, sir?

00:21:31.000 A black job is anybody that has a job. 1.00

00:21:34.000 That's what it is.

00:21:35.000 Anybody that has a job. 0.98

00:21:37.000 And they're taking the employment away from black people. 0.99

00:21:41.000 They're coming in and they're coming in. 0.96

00:21:43.000 It's an invasion of millions of people, probably 15, 16, 17 million people. 0.88

00:21:43.000 They're invading. 0.88

00:21:48.000 I have a feeling it's much more than that.

00:21:51.000 And everybody's been seeing what's happened.

00:21:53.000 The first group of people, the black population, is affected most by that, and Kamala is allowing it to happen. 1.00

00:22:00.000 She's the border czar. 0.84

00:22:01.000 She's the worst border czar in the history of the world. 1.00

00:22:03.000 There's never been a border czar like this.

00:22:05.000 There's never even essentially been.

00:22:07.000 She said she was there once, but not the right part of the border.

00:22:10.000 So she was a border, she's done a horrible job. 1.00

00:22:13.000 These people are coming into our country and they're taking black jobs and Hispanic jobs and frankly they're taking union jobs. 0.99

00:22:20.000 Unions are being very badly affected by all of the millions of people that are pouring into our country. 1.00

00:22:25.000 There's some other clips.

00:22:27.000 Let's play this one.

00:22:29.000 Here we go.

00:22:31.000 Some of your own supporters, including Republicans on Capitol Hill, have labeled Vice President Kamala Harris, who is the first black and Asian American woman to serve as vice president and be on a major party ticket, as a DEI hire.

00:22:44.000 Is that acceptable language to you?

00:22:46.000 Yes.

00:22:46.000 And will you tell those Republicans and those supporters to stop it?

00:22:49.000 How do you, how do you define DEI?

00:22:52.000 Go ahead.

00:22:53.000 Diversity, equity, inclusion?

00:22:53.000 How do you define it?

00:22:55.000 Okay, yeah, go ahead.

00:22:56.000 Is that what your definition?

00:22:57.000 That is, that is literally the words.

00:22:59.000 That's the acronym.

00:23:00.000 DEI.

00:23:01.000 Right.

00:23:01.000 Give me a definition.

00:23:02.000 Sir, I'm asking you a question, a very direct question.

00:23:04.000 Define the, define it for me if you would.

00:23:04.000 No, no, you have to define it.

00:23:06.000 I just defined it, sir.

00:23:07.000 Do you believe that Vice President Kamala Harris is only on the ticket because she is a black woman?

00:23:12.000 Well, I can say, no, I think it's maybe a little bit different.

00:23:15.000 So I've known her a long time indirectly, not directly very much.

00:23:21.000 And she was always of Indian heritage and she was only promoting Indian heritage. 0.89

00:23:27.000 I didn't know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black.

00:23:32.000 And now she wants.

00:23:34.000 So I don't know, is she Indian or is she black? 0.94

00:23:36.000 She is always identified as a black woman.

00:23:39.000 I respect either one, but she obviously doesn't because she was Indian all the way and then all of a sudden she made a turn and she went It's a good political play. 1.00

00:23:49.000 That's a smart statement for conservatives to bring up because what it says to a lot of the black community is that she's not been an active participant until she needed to be to earn those votes.

00:24:00.000 She's an opportunist and she's an opportunist where her identity is concerned too. 0.98

00:24:04.000 And it also, the fact that they get offended, the fact that like the left gets offended when you point out that someone is a DEI hire, yet they consistently push DEI as though it's this, you know, wonderful thing.

00:24:16.000 It can't be racist to say that someone is a DEI hire if DEI is great.

00:24:22.000 It can only be a positive thing.

00:24:23.000 It's either a person or it's not.

00:24:24.000 This person's a DEI hire.

00:24:25.000 Right, they celebrated Joe Biden when he was saying, I'm going to hire a woman of color 0.53

00:24:29.000 for the Supreme Court and for my vice president.

00:24:31.000 Yeah, he said the same thing for the Supreme Court and for the vice president.

00:24:35.000 And you know, it's because they know that DEI is not based on merit and it's just a

00:24:39.000 racist thing.

00:24:40.000 You don't have the clips in here, though, where he, I think the first question asked

00:24:44.000 when she basically insults him, like, why would you come here?

00:24:47.000 And he's like, well, I can tell you I've never been asked in a horrible, hostile way.

00:24:50.000 You know, and everyone's like, whoa.

00:24:52.000 And then you guys talk.

00:24:54.000 I was already at a thousand words.

00:24:55.000 And I was like, how long am I going to go with this thing?

00:24:57.000 I didn't I didn't see this one because I only saw the clips, but you guys mentioned that he like grabs the woman's water bottle and then tightens the cap or something.

00:25:03.000 I don't know if he did it on accident, he thought it was his, or he did it, I really actually hope he did it on purpose.

00:25:08.000 But yeah, he grabbed the water bottle that's in between the two of them, and you can see him clearly tighten it up and put it back.

00:25:15.000 He doesn't even take a drink out of it.

00:25:16.000 So, if he didn't do it intentionally, I'm not really sure why he did it, but... I actually think that exchange is worth...

00:25:23.000 Noting, because I think it's sort of a preview of the kind of dynamic the left-wing media will report on whenever Trump eventually debates Kamala Harris.

00:25:31.000 We all know what'll happen.

00:25:32.000 I know they're having kind of scuffles over which outlet and the date or whatever.

00:25:36.000 But, you know, the thing that Kamala got lauded for when she debated Pence last time, when she was like, I'm speaking, I'm speaking, I'm not gonna let you interrupt me.

00:25:47.000 And that's effectively a similar posture to what this woman is doing. 1.00

00:25:51.000 She's being like, you're ridiculous and disrespectful. 1.00

00:25:53.000 And you'll see, I'm confident, people say like, Trump asks ignorant question. 1.00

00:25:58.000 Amazing journalist just held her own. 1.00

00:26:00.000 Female journalist.

00:26:02.000 Black journalist.

00:26:04.000 I think there's t-shirts that say I'm speaking.

00:26:06.000 This woman's clearly campaigning for herself. 0.99

00:26:06.000 Right. 0.99

00:26:09.000 She's not there to do journalism and ask Trump questions. 1.00

00:26:11.000 No, and so I think that's, you know, he did do well, and Libby has pointed this out several times to us tonight, like, he made the audience laugh.

00:26:18.000 The audience liked Trump.

00:26:19.000 Maybe not all of them, maybe not all the time, but it wasn't a completely hostile reception from the audience, even if many of the questions posed to him were hostile.

00:26:28.000 But I think When you eventually see the Kamala Trump debate, there is going to be a need to be able to handle this like, I'm a strong woman and you're just a mean man being mean to me.

00:26:40.000 You know, talking over her is fine, I don't care about it, but I know that you will get reports from either side saying— Well, if you're strong, then you don't need to worry about someone being mean to you, because what do you care?

00:26:50.000 But that's what Trump did, basically.

00:26:51.000 Yeah.

00:26:52.000 You know, he sits down and they ask hostile questions and he just snaps right back at her.

00:26:56.000 He's like, boy, that was, you know, very hostile.

00:26:58.000 And then what was the other thing you mentioned that she asked about his divorce?

00:27:00.000 Well, at least you asked it nicely.

00:27:02.000 Yeah.

00:27:03.000 I see.

00:27:03.000 I've always been a believer that Trump should be doing events in downtown Detroit.

00:27:09.000 I think he could really I think he could win Michigan easily if he did this exact same kind of thing in in Detroit, because you can see that Yeah, sure, the crowd was hostile at the very beginning, but they kind of warm up to him.

00:27:22.000 And you can't not like the guy as he goes through his answers.

00:27:26.000 You think to yourself, if it was me up on stage being attacked like that, yeah, I'd probably be a little bit of an a-hole as well.

00:27:32.000 But he keeps it to like a reasonable measure.

00:27:34.000 He answers the question reasonably well enough.

00:27:37.000 And he just lets them become more and more hostile.

00:27:40.000 And I think it makes them look worse as time goes on. 0.96

00:27:43.000 One of the questions that she asks is, she's like, you called black journalists animals. 0.94

00:27:47.000 Like, is that appropriate language?

00:27:49.000 And then, I don't think Trump gave a very strong answer, but he certainly, I think that's when he says, oh, you're asking such a hostile question.

00:27:54.000 My response would be like, am I not allowed to insult someone based on, like, am I not allowed to criticize or insult people because they happen to be from a certain racial group?

00:28:02.000 Like, if there's an Asian guy, a white guy, and a Hispanic guy, and I can call the white guy or the Hispanic guy an 0.70

00:28:06.000 animal, if they're being disrespectful but the black guy's off-limits, 0.91

00:28:09.000 hey, I believe in racial equality. 0.97

00:28:11.000 If you're a good person, you get my compliment.

00:28:13.000 Yeah, I believe in insulting and complimenting people based on the content of their character,

00:28:17.000 and just because you're of a certain race doesn't give you any special benefits when it comes to me criticizing you.

00:28:21.000 And then, so this is my point I was making earlier.

00:28:24.000 She's like, how dare you? 1.00

00:28:25.000 You know, you called black journalists animals. 0.98

00:28:28.000 And then when Trump says black jobs, what is that supposed to mean? 0.99

00:28:30.000 What is a black job? 1.00

00:28:31.000 And it's like, how are you going to get mad when Trump calls a person an animal, not based on race, just the person, and then when he does mention that they're, as the black community, their jobs are being taken away, now you're offended again. 0.86

00:28:43.000 It's just faux offense.

00:28:44.000 That's the annoying thing about it. 0.79

00:28:46.000 I wish that he would have countered with, were you this upset when Joe Biden said, if you're not voting for me, you're not black.

00:28:51.000 I mean, it is okay when Joe Biden says stuff that I found really questionable, but it's not okay when Trump alludes to black people having jobs and them being possibly threatened by illegal immigration. 0.66

00:29:02.000 He's in a room full of black people.

00:29:04.000 So of course he would say that they're taking black jobs if he was in a room full of Hispanic people, he would say they're taking Hispanic jobs. 0.97

00:29:10.000 If he was in a room with white people, he would say they're taking white jobs. 0.88

00:29:13.000 When he was like, frankly, a lot of the journalists here are black people, and they laugh. 1.00

00:29:17.000 Like, he's funny. 0.92

00:29:19.000 It's like, dude, you're in a room of nothing but white people. 0.61

00:29:21.000 In case you didn't notice, right.

00:29:24.000 I bet he wouldn't talk about white jobs, though.

00:29:27.000 Yeah, maybe not. 0.97

00:29:28.000 The point he's making is that a black job is a job held by someone in the black community. 0.96

00:29:33.000 That's it. 0.60

00:29:33.000 He's saying, you guys have a community that you're concerned about and they're taking your jobs from you. 0.60

00:29:37.000 That's the point.

00:29:38.000 Why are you mad?

00:29:40.000 Right, but she thinks he's going to be like, what's-her-name, Kelly Osbourne on whatever show that was, where she was like, who's going to scrub your toilet, right?

00:29:48.000 They're expecting something from Trump that isn't there, and a part of it is because they came in primed to be hysterical.

00:29:53.000 And I think there are tons of journalists who do this, right and left.

00:29:57.000 know how they want it to play out. And I go back to, I can't remember the name of the

00:30:01.000 time I had, but the girl who ran the CNN town hall, where Trump came out and was like on

00:30:06.000 stage at one point, he like pulled out a paper of the tweets that weren't allowed to go out

00:30:10.000 at one point. Like, he did really well. And she was not prepared for it, because she came 0.98

00:30:14.000 in really aggressively. And CNN ended up ending that program early because of how well he was

00:30:20.000 doing, because their journalists came in with a bias and couldn't couldn't adapt to the

00:30:24.000 situation they were in.

00:30:25.000 Yeah, I think they still haven't learned how to deal with Trump.

00:30:28.000 The more aggressive you get, the better off he looks, I think.

00:30:33.000 I think he does worse in debates and interviews where people are nicer to him, and he doesn't really have anything to go off of.

00:30:42.000 He's the master at taking their energy and redirecting it into his own responses and getting enough of a laugh out of people that...

00:30:52.000 Again, you might not like him, but you find something in common with him in some way because you put yourself in that situation and you think, how would I react if I was the same?

00:31:02.000 I wish I could snap back that quick.

00:31:04.000 Man, he was so fast with that response.

00:31:06.000 Even if you don't particularly like the response, you've got to give him the credit for being quick and turning things around.

00:31:12.000 I want to play the clip that I just mentioned because I got it from Greg Price here.

00:31:17.000 Not true.

00:31:18.000 You have told four Congresswoman of color who were American citizens to go back to where they came from.

00:31:24.000 You have used words like animal and rabbit to describe black district attorneys. 1.00

00:31:29.000 You've attacked black journalists, calling them a loser, saying the questions that they ask are, quote, stupid and racist. 1.00

00:31:36.000 You've had dinner with a white supremacist at your Mar-a-Lago resort. 1.00

00:31:39.000 So my question, sir, now that you are asking black supporters to vote for you, why should black voters trust you after you have used language like that? 0.73

00:31:50.000 Well, first of all, I don't think I've ever been asked a question so, in such a horrible manner, first question.

00:31:58.000 You don't even say, hello, how are you?

00:32:01.000 Are you with ABC?

00:32:02.000 Because I think they're a fake news network.

00:32:09.000 I think it's disgraceful that I came here in good spirit.

00:32:14.000 I love the black population of this country.

00:32:16.000 I've done so much for the black population of this country, including employment, including Opportunity Zones with Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina, which is one of the greatest programs ever for I think it's a very rude introduction.

00:32:34.000 I've done so much and you know when I say this, historically black colleges and universities

00:32:41.000 were out of money, they were stone cold broke and I saved them and I gave them long term

00:32:47.000 financing and nobody else was doing it.

00:32:49.000 I think it's a very rude introduction.

00:32:52.000 I don't know exactly why you would do something like that.

00:32:56.000 And let me go a step further.

00:32:57.000 I was invited here and I was told my opponent, whether it was Biden or Kamala, I was told my opponent was going to be here.

00:33:06.000 It turned out my opponent isn't here.

00:33:08.000 You invited me under false pretense.

00:33:10.000 Wow.

00:33:10.000 And then you said you can't do it with Zoom.

00:33:13.000 Well, you know, where's Zoom?

00:33:15.000 She's going to do it with Zoom and she's not coming.

00:33:18.000 Wow.

00:33:18.000 And then you were half an hour late, just so we understand.

00:33:22.000 They couldn't get their equipment working or something.

00:33:24.000 the receipts.

00:33:25.000 I would love to answer the question on your rhetoric and why do you think black voters

00:33:29.000 should trust you with another one of your years?

00:33:30.000 I have been the best president for the black population since Abraham Lincoln.

00:33:36.000 I don't think President Johnson is...

00:33:39.000 I said this the other night, but ABC has a weird connection to the Biden-Harris administration.

00:33:42.000 It gets more sketchy to me all the time.

00:33:43.000 when you're 35 minutes late because you couldn't get your equipment to work in such a hostile

00:33:48.000 manner.

00:33:49.000 I think it's a disgrace.

00:33:50.000 I really I actually love that.

00:33:53.000 He's called out ABC to.

00:33:55.000 I said this the other night, but ABC has a weird connection to the Biden Harris administration.

00:33:59.000 It gets more sketchy to me all the time.

00:34:01.000 The fact that George Stephanopoulos ABC got the first Biden post debate interview and

00:34:05.000 then Kim Cheeto didn't do any press except for ABC News. 1.00

00:34:09.000 Like, very weird.

00:34:10.000 And they're supposed to host the September 10th debate, right?

00:34:14.000 So, like, I think it's fair for him to be like, oh, wow, ABC.

00:34:19.000 Seems like you guys have a bias.

00:34:20.000 Let's break down that question she asked.

00:34:23.000 She hammered him with a bunch of points as if they were true without giving me... So here's how a journalist should act.

00:34:28.000 Donald Trump, you've been accused of calling person, you know, A, this word.

00:34:34.000 Response. 0.92

00:34:35.000 You've also said of this person, we have a quote, you said, this person is an animal.

00:34:41.000 You know, how do you respond to this?

00:34:42.000 What was that about?

00:34:43.000 A journalist would ask the question, what she did was she goes, you did this thing, this thing, this thing, this thing, this thing, this thing, this thing, you're bad.

00:34:48.000 Why should you be here?

00:34:49.000 No evidence.

00:34:50.000 No fact checking.

00:34:51.000 They're going to fact check him real time, which is what they were trying to do, which is what they claim the delay was for.

00:34:56.000 They say that he didn't want them to be fact-checking him live and they were going back and forth about it.

00:35:03.000 So yeah, but then the journalist can rattle off a bunch of things that aren't true and what's he supposed to do?

00:35:08.000 Fact-check them live up there or answer the question?

00:35:11.000 He doesn't have all that in front of him. 0.98

00:35:13.000 It's ridiculous.

00:35:14.000 So there's a lot of heat coming Trump's way now. 0.87

00:35:15.000 We have this from the Daily Mail.

00:35:17.000 Donald Trump says Kamala Harris became a black person after being Indian all the way.

00:35:22.000 And so now, what do we have this?

00:35:24.000 Do we have this one?

00:35:27.000 Here we go.

00:35:27.000 Anna Navarro Cardenas, who is, uh, what is she?

00:35:30.000 She's a Nicaraguan-American.

00:35:31.000 CNN In The View says, In front of black audience, Trump argues Kamala Harris isn't black. 0.87

00:35:37.000 In front of white audiences, Vance argues she's a DEI hire who's gotten where she is because she's a black woman.

00:35:42.000 How can they argue both things at the same time about the same person? 1.00

00:35:46.000 Bunch of clowns. 1.00

00:35:47.000 Because that's what Democrats do. 1.00

00:35:48.000 No, no, no.

00:35:49.000 Because she's Indian.

00:35:51.000 Like, DEI hire could be because she's a woman. 1.00

00:35:54.000 It's not even about race.

00:35:56.000 But now they're mad because Trump made this, he pointed this out, and he pointed it out accurately.

00:36:01.000 The political play a long time ago was that she was an Indian woman, and the political play today is that she's a black woman.

00:36:06.000 She is both, but it is a political maneuver to try and brand her with one or the other race. 0.99

00:36:12.000 How about four, five years ago, or six years ago, I think it was eight years ago, they say she's Indian Jamaican. 0.56

00:36:21.000 Point out that she's biracial. 0.99

00:36:24.000 And that's exactly what Trump is pointing out.

00:36:27.000 they'll do whatever they need, they'll say whatever they need to say in the moment

00:36:31.000 to accomplish their goal. If they didn't have...

00:36:35.000 And that's exactly what Trump is pointing out.

00:36:37.000 If they didn't have double standards, they have no standards at all.

00:36:37.000 They would have nothing.

00:36:39.000 Correct.

00:36:41.000 I think Kamala Harris was...

00:36:43.000 Yeah, I think Kamala Harris was a win for the Biden administration because she was sort of a biracial woman who therefore they could trot out at any occasion, right? 1.00

00:36:52.000 Like when they need someone to be the spokesperson for diversity, they have Kamala Harris. 0.93

00:36:56.000 You know, that's cool if that's what you think your administration needs.

00:37:00.000 I think it's kind of gross, but it's not clear that they hired her for merit.

00:37:05.000 They hired her because of what she looks like. 0.91

00:37:06.000 Could it perhaps be weird?

00:37:08.000 Could it perhaps be weird that they do that?

00:37:10.000 The other thing too, speaking of the double standards, is you had Pete Buttigieg recently speaking to the New York Times on one of their podcasts, what is it, The Daily?

00:37:18.000 And he was asked outright, and he's been a huge Kamala surrogate at this point, and he was asked if he thought Kamala Harris should accept the invitation from Fox to debate on September 17th, which has been the only invitation held out to Kamala Harris, as opposed to her dropping in to try and fill Biden's shoes.

00:37:38.000 And Pete Buttigieg said that he did not think she should debate on Fox because he thought they were too biased.

00:37:46.000 But he does apparently think that Trump should debate not Joe Biden in an ABC debate on September 10th, even though Kamala Harris wasn't invited to that debate.

00:37:55.000 So who's going to be at that September 10th debate?

00:37:59.000 Nobody so far.

00:38:01.000 And you really just have Kamala Harris's campaign demanding that Trump show up on terms that he agreed to to debate Joe Biden, even though he hasn't agreed to those terms for her.

00:38:13.000 I don't I suppose.

00:38:16.000 And I wonder why Trump doesn't debate Kamala Harris.

00:38:18.000 He has said that he would, but this is the thing about the Fox invitation, which came out a couple days ago.

00:38:23.000 You know, that's that network saying, like, now that the contract seems to be void because Biden is no longer in the race, we will host a debate between Kamala Harris and Trump.

00:38:34.000 And, you know, Trump had said, I'm happy to debate her.

00:38:36.000 We can have multiple debates.

00:38:37.000 But I actually don't think it's that unreasonable for him to say, like, but as you have now suddenly dropped in a new candidate, that does not mean we have to stick to this agreement with ABC News.

00:38:46.000 And especially because I think ABC News has been kind of sketchy this summer.

00:38:46.000 Right.

00:38:49.000 Yeah, they haven't been so great.

00:38:51.000 And there is definitely this double standard where everyone's just kind of assuming that because the Democrats have, you know, changed their presumptive nominee, that means that presumptive nominee is entitled to everything that Joe Biden had, you know, earned as president and as the candidate.

00:38:51.000 Yeah.

00:39:07.000 And I don't see why the Trump campaign should agree to Yeah, especially now since it's Kamala and not, you could argue that because Biden is the incumbent that maybe he gets to pick the rules.

00:39:20.000 I don't agree with that particularly, but you could make the argument.

00:39:23.000 But in this case, you have Two people who are currently not president, both vying for the same office.

00:39:30.000 So, for sure, if I was him, I would absolutely try to renegotiate that and say, OK, well, maybe we'll do this one on ABC, but we're going to do one on Fox then, so that at least we have two.

00:39:40.000 Or we'll pick somebody neutral in the middle.

00:39:44.000 We've allowed Democrats to run the rules of these debates. 0.96

00:39:47.000 I don't exactly know how that happened.

00:39:49.000 But it just seems like it's been that way, and Trump has sort of had to just take what he can get, in a sense?

00:39:53.000 Well, Trump's team, back when they were debating the debates before the first one, had said, like, we're happy to do three, because these aren't being run by the official, like, presidential debate body.

00:40:02.000 They're run by these, like, agreements between the campaigns and the networks, and typically there are three every year.

00:40:09.000 So they had scheduled this one in May, and then they were like, we're gonna do it again in September, and then There was Trump's team had said, well, we'll do a third and Biden's team had said no.

00:40:21.000 So it's this it's this weird thing where like the Biden campaign was very different than Harris's campaign because their candidate had struggles that they say Kamala doesn't have.

00:40:30.000 Right.

00:40:31.000 And it seems largely like those are related to age.

00:40:33.000 He needed different support.

00:40:35.000 They didn't want people in the room.

00:40:36.000 This question of breaks.

00:40:37.000 Are they going to sit down?

00:40:39.000 I don't know why Kamala Harris would want to debate the way that Biden was going to debate 0.99

00:40:44.000 because theoretically she's younger.

00:40:45.000 She's more energetic.

00:40:46.000 She shouldn't want the same format.

00:40:48.000 So I don't understand why her campaign is acting like this is such a weird thing, that

00:40:54.000 they would go back to the drawing board and renegotiate the terms.

00:40:57.000 I thought she wasn't Biden 2.0.

00:40:59.000 I thought she was her own special person.

00:41:00.000 And who's J.D.

00:41:01.000 Vance going to debate now?

00:41:02.000 We don't even know.

00:41:03.000 We should find out by Tuesday.

00:41:04.000 Tuesday is the time because Kamala Harris is supposed to hold a joint rally in Philly on Tuesday with an as-yet-to-be-named candidate.

00:41:17.000 I still think it's going to be Bashar. 1.00

00:41:18.000 I should learn his name before it happens.

00:41:18.000 Bashar?

00:41:21.000 Bashir.

00:41:22.000 Yeah.

00:41:22.000 Bashir.

00:41:23.000 So I think the betting odds were for Kelly, but there was some news report saying the rumor was it was going to be a governor.

00:41:28.000 Yeah.

00:41:29.000 I think it'll be the governor of Kentucky.

00:41:30.000 I mean, I'm not willing to put money on this.

00:41:33.000 I don't know for sure.

00:41:33.000 But, you know, he's definitely posturing like it's going to be him online.

00:41:37.000 I think they're all kind of really hoping.

00:41:38.000 Well, there was a rumor that the DNC was trying to get a bunch of Wall Street firms to donate ahead of the announcement for VP because They're not allowed to donate if there's a sitting governor on the ticket or something like that.

00:41:50.000 Can we just point out real quick, I want to stress this, that Donald Trump destroyed Joe Biden in that debate so horribly that Joe Biden dropped out of the race.

00:41:59.000 Yes, that's exactly what happened.

00:42:01.000 He was forced out.

00:42:01.000 It is.

00:42:03.000 His performance was so atrocious against Donald Trump that the Democrats panicked and removed him from the race.

00:42:12.000 Yeah, which should not be a thing you're allowed to do.

00:42:15.000 You shouldn't just be like, oh, this candidate that we picked that we've been running this whole time, it turns out that he's not great against the other guy, so let's switch it up real quick and just pretend we never did.

00:42:26.000 Well, we were saying before, I don't think Harris should just get to act like she inherits everything I got to. 0.93

00:42:32.000 And I think that should apply to the voters, right?

00:42:34.000 She made a big show, this was all the reporting I heard, you know, that Sunday that Biden dropped out and endorsed her, that she was calling all these organizations, these union workers, all of these people, delegates, saying, I'm going to earn your vote.

00:42:46.000 And apparently she had earned their vote by 9 a.m.

00:42:48.000 on Monday morning.

00:42:49.000 I mean, it was amazing how fast people coalesced around her.

00:42:51.000 And then they say it's grassroots, which is just such a huge lie.

00:42:54.000 I wonder if the voters feel that way.

00:42:56.000 I think there must be some voters who feel a certain level of whiplash and who also looked at her being like, I didn't support you in 2020.

00:43:01.000 It's not like she took second place.

00:43:03.000 I bet there's a lot of voters who just feel relieved.

00:43:05.000 I mean, I'll tell you there's a... Because they want somebody to vote for and they weren't going to vote for Biden.

00:43:05.000 Yeah.

00:43:10.000 But once that honeymoon like falls apart, you think it'll last?

00:43:12.000 Yeah, but the honeymoon doesn't have to be very long, right?

00:43:15.000 I mean, it's only a few months to the election.

00:43:16.000 I mean, for her it just has to get... Well, and for her it just has to be until she gets on the ticket because then they don't have any other choices.

00:43:20.000 Right.

00:43:21.000 That's true too.

00:43:21.000 Yeah, I think there's a lot of people on the left that are really...

00:43:24.000 Not very happy about Kamala.

00:43:26.000 I have some friends who are pretty far on the left, and none of them really like her.

00:43:33.000 She's a former prosecutor, put all these people in jail for, you know, drug crimes and things that they don't really believe in, and they're not really hot on her.

00:43:41.000 I would be surprised.

00:43:48.000 I will be surprised to see how the election goes.

00:43:50.000 She also spearheaded male rapists being able to be housed in women's prisons in California.

00:43:57.000 Yeah, that was great.

00:43:59.000 Amy Ichikawa, From Woman to Woman, which is an advocacy group for incarcerated women, was on Charlie Kirk today talking about it.

00:44:08.000 And it's pretty bad.

00:44:10.000 I mean, it's pretty bad at the Chowchilla facility, what's going on there.

00:44:14.000 There's men in the prison.

00:44:15.000 There's, you know, there's sexual relationships going on.

00:44:19.000 There's abuse going on.

00:44:21.000 And it's really a big problem.

00:44:22.000 There's no reason that women's prisons in California should be handing out contraception to women. 1.00

00:44:28.000 They should not have to worry about getting pregnant by other inmates in a women's correctional facility. 1.00

00:44:35.000 And it disrupts the ability to, you know, Yeah, and like so many women who are in prison were already subject to abuse. 1.00

00:44:43.000 That's a big part of how women end up in prison. 1.00

00:44:45.000 Well, we got male boxers fighting women in the Olympics.

00:44:47.000 in a much worse situation.

00:44:48.000 Yeah, and like so many women who are in prison were already subject to abuse. 1.00

00:44:53.000 That's a big part of how women end up in prison. 1.00

00:44:56.000 We got male boxers fighting women in the Olympics.

00:45:00.000 That was four years ago too, though.

00:45:02.000 I'm pretty sure there's a photo of those same male boxers in 2020 fighting in the Olympics.

00:45:06.000 So it's 2021.

00:45:06.000 It was postponed.

00:45:08.000 But they've been allowed to fight for a long time.

00:45:10.000 And that's why the betting odds favor the male.

00:45:12.000 If there's any sport you could argue that it's the least, or how do I put Like the most obvious you don't do it.

00:45:19.000 I've been in combat sports my entire life.

00:45:22.000 I started wrestling when I was 12, been doing jiu-jitsu for 15 years.

00:45:25.000 I had women on my wrestling team in middle school, high school. 1.00

00:45:28.000 I train with women every day at my jiu-jitsu academy. 0.99

00:45:34.000 If you spend 15 minutes in any combat sport and you see the differences, I feel like it would change almost anybody's mind except for the most radical people who are just a total NPC out to lunch downloading the program every night.

00:45:52.000 It's so obvious.

00:45:54.000 I don't know how anybody can't see it.

00:45:55.000 I want to jump to this story.

00:45:56.000 We got a couple of tweets.

00:45:58.000 The Democrats have been running the weird narrative because that's their line of attack.

00:46:02.000 But, oh boy, did they step in it this time.

00:46:05.000 Nevada Democrats quoted Sam Brown, a veteran who was injured and has suffered burns to his face.

00:46:13.000 And he had posted with J.D.

00:46:14.000 Vance, on X, it's time hard-working Nevadans have champions for them in the White House and U.S. 1.00

00:46:19.000 Senate.

00:46:20.000 President Trump, J.D.

00:46:21.000 Vance, and I are ready to lead and help make life better for every Nevadan and American.

00:46:24.000 We got you!

00:46:26.000 And Nevada Democrats said, you can't make this up.

00:46:29.000 Sam Brown and J.D.

00:46:30.000 Vance are claiming to be champions for hard-working Nevadans from a private jet. 0.99

00:46:34.000 They're not only hypocrites, they're just plain weird. 0.96

00:46:37.000 And the reason why they step in is because we all know what happened with Donald Trump. 0.98

00:46:40.000 When Donald Trump liked to do that thing where he would mock people by bouncing his arm on his chest, and then all of a sudden a journalist popped up who had a disability with his arm, and the media ran the narrative that Donald Trump was intentionally mocking a disabled journalist.

00:46:53.000 Sam Brown has responded, saying, Yes, you can call my face weird.

00:46:57.000 It won't be the first or last time I've heard it, but my message is not to you.

00:47:01.000 My message is to anyone else who has been put down or called weird

00:47:04.000 because of their experiences or who they are.

00:47:06.000 I say to you, do not allow others to define you.

00:47:09.000 I'm proud of my scars.

00:47:11.000 They might look a little different, but it gives me an opportunity to encourage others.

00:47:14.000 I encourage every one of you to lean into the things that make you unique and that others may call weird and realize that your experience, whether it's suffering or something else, gives you an opportunity to connect with others and give them hope.

00:47:26.000 You are loved.

00:47:26.000 You are appreciated.

00:47:28.000 The things that make you unique can also be your greatest strength.

00:47:32.000 In response to them calling him weird.

00:47:35.000 And it's just like, guys, we try to be a little sensitive.

00:47:39.000 You know what I mean?

00:47:40.000 They're supposed to be the sensitive ones, right?

00:47:41.000 They're claiming to be, but this is the problem with a open hatch and randomly fire out the insult of weird to any and everyone, and then not thinking about you insulting a guy.

00:47:54.000 And I say this with all due respect to Captain Sam Brown, who's pointing out he has been called weird before.

00:48:01.000 It's one thing to call J.D.

00:48:02.000 Vance or Trump weird, because in their minds, they're like, it's punching up, right?

00:48:05.000 Trump's a billionaire, J.D.

00:48:06.000 Vance's a sinner, he's got a successful book and a movie.

00:48:09.000 Sam Brown is an injured veteran who has been called weird because of the injuries he's suffered, and they are not paying attention to what they're doing when they just blanket everybody as weird, and now they've stepped in it.

00:48:21.000 So this only gets pushed if Republicans decide this is an attack.

00:48:25.000 Make it an issue, yeah.

00:48:26.000 And I think they should.

00:48:27.000 They should say, guys, chill out on the weird stuff, because you're not paying attention to who you're insulting.

00:48:32.000 Sam Brown has said he's been called weird before because of his face, because of the injuries he's suffered serving this country, and now Democrats are not even thinking about what they're calling this guy.

00:48:41.000 I think if the Trump campaign isn't already churning out a ton of merchandise with weird and some reference to that, they're crazy.

00:48:51.000 I think this is probably one of the bigger political mistakes that the left could make.

00:48:55.000 I mean, I'm weird.

00:48:56.000 You're weird.

00:48:57.000 I mean, I think everybody in this room is, to a certain extent.

00:48:59.000 They want to be the status quo, maybe let them be the status quo.

00:49:02.000 Yeah, the left, I mean, look at the left.

00:49:05.000 You're going to call people on the right weird?

00:49:08.000 People on the right were always the ones accused of being, you know, starched collars, boring, sticks in the mud.

00:49:14.000 Bow tie.

00:49:15.000 Right, bow tie, exactly.

00:49:16.000 They would say that about Tucker Carlson, bunch of uptight nerds, and now we're the weird ones?

00:49:22.000 Good!

00:49:24.000 I hope we are.

00:49:25.000 I hope we embrace it and make it, turn it right back.

00:49:30.000 But it's the stodgy conservatives who have never liked being called weird.

00:49:35.000 They want to be normal.

00:49:36.000 And it is only, I think, because of this coalition between more moderates, post-liberals, disaffected liberals, and independents...

00:49:43.000 All of those people are fine with being called weird.

00:49:45.000 Sure.

00:49:46.000 You know, but these suit-wearing conservative types, look, you go to any one of these conservative events, you go to these youth conservative college events, and it's just like, dude, it is like a bunch of 18-year-olds wearing suits.

00:49:59.000 Yeah, khaki pants.

00:50:00.000 Yeah, come on, guys.

00:50:01.000 You gotta be a little weird.

00:50:02.000 A lot of high heels, too.

00:50:03.000 A lot of high heels, red dresses.

00:50:05.000 Everybody is very much in line.

00:50:07.000 Very makeup-y.

00:50:08.000 But I think that's changing.

00:50:08.000 Yeah.

00:50:10.000 I mean, maybe not at those kinds of events, you know, sort of the core Republicans, the ones that are unfortunately still in charge of the party and the way things go.

00:50:18.000 But I think that's changing.

00:50:20.000 I mean, I think that's why, you know, we've had some success as a company.

00:50:24.000 IX is just, like, we are weird and we're happy to embrace it.

00:50:28.000 And I think people enjoy the fact that Plus, Democrats need to apologize to Sam Brown.

00:50:34.000 Democrats need to apologize to Sam Brown.

00:50:37.000 Every single Republican should be like, fine, call me weird, but apologize to Sam Brown.

00:50:41.000 Force Democrat leadership to go on TV and say, we did not mean it, we're sorry.

00:50:46.000 Make them do it.

00:50:46.000 What's weird, if I may, is that you have a lot of leftist cities that pride themselves on their weirdness.

00:50:53.000 Keep Portland weird.

00:50:56.000 Keep Austin weird.

00:50:58.000 And suddenly weird is bad?

00:50:59.000 I thought weird was your whole thing.

00:51:00.000 I thought, you know, furry drag queens reading to children was like the great thing.

00:51:07.000 They're abandoning it because Kamala's a mean girl sorority sister now? 0.99

00:51:10.000 Democrats have become the party of the wealthy.

00:51:13.000 In 2016, Vox.com wrote that.

00:51:15.000 They have continually become the party of the status quo.

00:51:18.000 Look at the Lincoln Project.

00:51:19.000 Look at the neocons who dumped the Republicans and joined the Democrats.

00:51:22.000 The Democrats are trying to not be the weird party, and it actually is an issue for them.

00:51:26.000 The far left does the things they do.

00:51:28.000 Joe Biden doesn't want that stuff.

00:51:29.000 He tries to push it away, but he can't because he needs their votes.

00:51:32.000 So they are trying to label... This is what they do with defund the police.

00:51:36.000 The far left calls for defund the police, and then establishment Democrats try getting on board with it, the New York Times tries getting on board with it, they realize it's unpopular, and then they say, the right wants to defund the police!

00:51:46.000 When the right said stuff like, de-weaponize the FBI.

00:51:49.000 They try to push it off onto the right.

00:51:51.000 I say be weird, fine, but the main play right now is, what every Republican should be saying is, apologize to Sam Brown, call Trump weird, call J.D.

00:52:00.000 Vance weird, call me weird, all you like.

00:52:02.000 Me, I like being called weird.

00:52:03.000 I don't want to be stodgy status quo, but that's just me.

00:52:06.000 Well, I'll tell you this.

00:52:07.000 You and I together, Democrats, we will call Trump weird, but you gotta apologize to Sam Brown.

00:52:11.000 Yeah, but they're not gonna do that.

00:52:12.000 They're never gonna do that.

00:52:13.000 And that's the only thing.

00:52:14.000 All that matters is that when there is a rally at a small, suburban town, and there's a bunch of undecideds, they can say, Call me weird, that's fine, but please apologize to Sam Brown.

00:52:27.000 That's not cool.

00:52:28.000 That's not okay, man.

00:52:29.000 This guy, he made a sacrifice for his nation.

00:52:33.000 So say you're sorry and then we can move on and you can insult me all you want.

00:52:36.000 And they're not going to do it!

00:52:37.000 And then let the American people see what they're willing to do for their politics.

00:52:41.000 Republicans, they always become, they get demure.

00:52:46.000 Look at George Floyd.

00:52:47.000 The George Floyd incident happens, every single conservative comes out saying, whoa, jeez.

00:52:52.000 Look at the Covington kids.

00:52:53.000 When the Covington thing happens with the Native American, all of a sudden, every conservative is like, oh, well, jeez, that was really bad what the kid did. 0.71

00:53:00.000 Very few people said, no, I'm going to challenge and question this narrative.

00:53:04.000 So now we have a situation where The Democrats want to play this weird angle and insult all the conservatives as weird, and then they call an injured veteran weird, and he happens to get called weird because of his face?

00:53:17.000 Nah, make him apologize.

00:53:19.000 Make him apologize.

00:53:20.000 Part of the thing, though, where Republicans will, you know, say, oh, the Covington kid, that was a problem or whatever, and they'll come out and do that, is because it's only in those moments that Republicans get accepted by the left and get airtime on these legacy networks.

00:53:34.000 And they want to be liked.

00:53:36.000 They want to be included in that whole thing.

00:53:39.000 So they say, oh, sure, I'm never Trump, or the kid shouldn't have smiled, or, you know, the abortion rules go too far, or whatever it is.

00:53:48.000 Yeah, they'll come out and say that so that they can have access to that platform.

00:53:53.000 Republicans always begin with an apology.

00:53:55.000 Always.

00:53:56.000 And they have to get over that or they're going to keep losing.

00:53:59.000 And that's sort of what's interesting, too.

00:54:01.000 If I can, like this Pete Buttigieg interview, another thing that he was saying was that if Kamala wins the presidency, then you eliminate MAGA and that you're back to a, you know, more normal Republican Party.

00:54:13.000 Because what the Democrats really fear is the MAGA movement.

00:54:16.000 They're worried, and that's why they're going so hard against J.D.

00:54:18.000 Vance, because J.D.

00:54:19.000 Vance is the future of that movement.

00:54:20.000 He's young.

00:54:21.000 He's got a lot of political career ahead of him.

00:54:23.000 He can gather a lot of people around and rally that.

00:54:28.000 And that's what the Democrats really fear.

00:54:30.000 They would love to go back to the era of fiscal conservative bowtied Republicans who just want to apologize and be included.

00:54:38.000 And they're not seeing a way to really defeat a populist movement where people are proud

00:54:46.000 of who they are and where they come from, where they don't want to apologize for their

00:54:50.000 guns or their religion or their free speech, you know, or owning their land or whatever

00:54:56.000 else it is that people just want to do and be left alone.

00:54:59.000 And the Democrats don't see a way to beat that.

00:55:01.000 And that's why they're doing this whole Mean Girls thing. 1.00

00:55:03.000 And they're throwing a lot of stuff at the wall right now.

00:55:05.000 I mean, they're just because they have nothing.

00:55:07.000 We try to get Kamala to be, you know, Kamala is brat. 1.00

00:55:10.000 Like they're going to turn on a lot of stuff.

00:55:12.000 She's talking to another sorority tonight. 0.99

00:55:14.000 Yeah.

00:55:15.000 They're going to throw like the third sorority in a week and a half. 0.98

00:55:17.000 Look, sorority girls are extremely powerful in America. 1.00

00:55:19.000 The lobby has been underrepresented.

00:55:20.000 No, but they're going to throw a lot of stuff at the wall because Democrats have typically 0.98

00:55:25.000 always controlled messaging and language.

00:55:27.000 And they believe that that's their ticket back to the White House because I think, to your point, they are afraid of the MAGA movement and a lot of the MAGA movement introduced a new narrative that they couldn't combat.

00:55:38.000 And so they have to make all of these very personal attacks.

00:55:41.000 He's weird.

00:55:42.000 Like, you know, whatever it is, they're just trying to make it these sort of...

00:55:47.000 ick factor, like for some reason you just don't like them because they're having a hard time

00:55:52.000 challenging you had AOC basically saying she was saying that MAGA and JD Vance are incels.

00:55:57.000 It's like JD Vance, the father of three, father of three, Ohio who's married, right? But you know,

00:56:02.000 no, no, it's and it's buzzwords, right? Like if they can just hit like, things that make people

00:56:07.000 say, Oh, I don't like that person that I know that term is bad. I know I'm going to distance

00:56:10.000 myself from it. I mean, to the reaction to the DEI higher aspect, they agree with to be something

00:56:15.000 that they're tagged with. Yeah, I agree with Scott Adams assessment of this. And he he's

00:56:20.000 pretty convinced that whoever came up with the weird tagline, You too.

00:56:29.000 of the opinion that the democrat party is now the party of women and i and i

00:56:34.000 don't disagree with that i i think they're really trying to ladies that yet i think they're really trying to

00:56:39.000 tie into that and we're just sort of a female 0.96

00:56:42.000 insult you know like you they give you all he gives me the it you know he's a 0.84

00:56:45.000 weird guy all these kinds of things guys don't generally insult each

00:56:49.000 other that way and so i think they're

00:56:52.000 that the other system and i think they've got the candidate that they

00:56:54.000 want they they're gonna try I think that they see a lot more potential in her than they do in Hillary. 0.92

00:56:59.000 They would never be able to do this kind of stuff with her because she's a stodgy, stick-in-the-mud woman. 1.00

00:57:06.000 And Kamala, she's got these rappers coming out. 1.00

00:57:09.000 They're acting like it's a party.

00:57:12.000 Right, and I feel like conservatives will fail if they give too much in to participating in whatever rhetoric development is happening right now with the media, right?

00:57:20.000 Like, trying to talk to them about their buzzwords or whatever weird insult they've come up with during this time.

00:57:25.000 You know, it's sort of irrelevant.

00:57:27.000 Like, stay the course.

00:57:28.000 Attack Kamala Harris on things that are relevant, like her time as a prosecutor, her failure to secure national security, her lack of international diplomacy experience.

00:57:36.000 Like, you could have a substantive conversation that they will not be able to combat with.

00:57:40.000 All they have is weird and brat.

00:57:42.000 He should say, listen, Kamala, let's sit down and have a 30-minute discussion about the war in Ukraine.

00:57:47.000 Tell me about a business you've picked, Kamala.

00:57:50.000 How do you read a balance sheet?

00:57:51.000 Let's jump to this story from NBC News.

00:57:53.000 Harris's political assent makes the latest target of DEI insults.

00:57:57.000 Now, we saw this in the Donald Trump interview at the National Association of Black Journalists.

00:58:02.000 But it's become a big talking point in the media that people are insulting Kamala Harris by calling her a diversity hire. 0.86

00:58:09.000 So they write this big thing about how she's a diversity hire and how it's an insult, and I'll 0.99

00:58:13.000 just pause right there and say, first of all, we have this clip from Tenet Media, which I'll play

00:58:17.000 for you of George Takei.

00:58:18.000 Strength, optimism, and joy. And she is the very personification of diversity.

00:58:29.000 You can see it in her and her diversity embraces the world from Jamaica all the way down to South Asia, India.

00:58:39.000 And beyond that, she what she has done.

00:58:43.000 Okay, blah, blah.

00:58:45.000 Okay, so she personifies diversity.

00:58:47.000 So when I say she was hired for diversity, I'm insulting her.

00:58:50.000 Right.

00:58:51.000 Yeah, I thought that was supposed to be a good thing.

00:58:52.000 Yeah.

00:58:53.000 Why isn't the response, if I say Kamala Harris is a diversity hire, should the Democrats then turn to all their voters and say, look at that, look how good we've done with diversity hiring?

00:59:04.000 We did so amazing that the president is a diversity hire.

00:59:08.000 Right.

00:59:08.000 It was our objective.

00:59:09.000 It did not get there on their own merits.

00:59:11.000 We say all the time that there's... That is a black woman, so yay. 1.00

00:59:14.000 Yeah, we say all the time there's not enough diversity, and then you have this Top-tier diversity selection, and yet you're unhappy about it.

00:59:21.000 Which is it?

00:59:22.000 What are you aiming for here?

00:59:24.000 They want diversity hires, but they know that conservatives don't like diversity hires, so they're mad that the literal context of diversity hire is pejorative to conservatives.

00:59:36.000 And so that's it?

00:59:37.000 That they lose their minds over this?

00:59:39.000 Well, I think that they know it's a pejorative to pretty much everybody.

00:59:43.000 In the grand scheme of things, almost nobody wants somebody to be hired only because of what they look like.

00:59:48.000 They want to be hired because of their qualifications.

00:59:50.000 If you ask somebody if the mechanic working on the aircraft you're about to fly on was

00:59:56.000 hired because of merit or because of diversity, every single person is going to say merit.

01:00:01.000 So they only use that when it's convenient for them to push.

01:00:05.000 They love diversity when they're trying to bully some Fortune 500 company into hiring

01:00:11.000 more people of whatever race, whatever color, whatever religion that they think they need 0.88

01:00:15.000 more of.

01:00:16.000 But when it comes to their own decisions, they don't want to be tied to that same rock.

01:00:23.000 They don't want that tied around their leg.

01:00:25.000 They want to be able to pick who they think has got the best chance of winning.

01:00:28.000 And in this case, they think it's her, not just because of, I mean, clearly not because

01:00:34.000 of her accomplishments, but they know that she taps into the right demographics and that

01:00:40.000 unfortunately people on their side of the fence are going to vote for her for those 1.00

01:00:43.000 demographics no matter what.

01:00:45.000 Cernovich tweeted quote To me, the values of diversity, equality, inclusion are literally, and this is not kidding, the core strengths of America.

01:00:53.000 That's why I'm proud to have the most diverse administration in history, and it starts at the top with the vice president.

01:00:58.000 Okay?

01:01:00.000 Why are they insulted by what they want?

01:01:02.000 This is what I don't get.

01:01:03.000 You know, you get conservatives constantly defending liberals, too.

01:01:07.000 So I'll say something like, oh, wow, look at the crime running rampant in New York City.

01:01:12.000 And they're like, no, that's mean, you can't blame them.

01:01:12.000 Congratulations.

01:01:14.000 I'm like, whoa, hold on.

01:01:16.000 So, like, these people in New York vote for crime.

01:01:20.000 I'm not being cute.

01:01:21.000 I'm saying they literally have politicians who come out, and they say, we want to release criminals from jail.

01:01:26.000 We want to make it so they can't be arrested.

01:01:28.000 We want to make it so that if they do get arrested, there's no cash bail.

01:01:32.000 And they say, I'm voting for that.

01:01:34.000 Then that criminal who gets out robs them, and I go, congratulations.

01:01:37.000 And I get conservatives going, no, no, no, come on, Tim.

01:01:40.000 What do you mean they voted for it?

01:01:42.000 I'm cheering them on!

01:01:43.000 That's right.

01:01:44.000 It's like I was saying before the show, if a guy comes to me and says, I'm going to juggle, I'd say, okay.

01:01:48.000 And then when he does, I'd be like, great.

01:01:51.000 You say, I'm going to vote for the people who want criminals released, and then you become a victim of crime, I'll be like, okay.

01:01:51.000 I don't understand.

01:01:58.000 I don't understand why we have this constant assumption from conservatives that Democrats are just making mistakes all the time, and we have to be nice to them for being dumb. 1.00

01:02:09.000 Like, sure, by all means, call them dumb. 0.98

01:02:12.000 But, like, they're the ones who created the DEI initiatives, and now they're mad about it. 0.98

01:02:16.000 I'm not going to get—congratulations, this is what you wanted.

01:02:18.000 Right, to hold them accountable for it.

01:02:20.000 Yeah.

01:02:22.000 Problem solved.

01:02:23.000 Well, it would have been interesting if Biden had come out and said, you know, for my VP, I really want one of the nation's best prosecutors, and I'm going to only pick someone who has an—you know, who is a former attorney general, who's had really, you know, a lot of experience, and then, you know, just happened to be Kamala Harris.

01:02:37.000 But it was always about Who she was in terms of the boxes she would check on an application form in terms of her race, her gender.

01:02:46.000 You know, I honestly wish she had pushed back about it more, but instead she also was like, yes, I am here.

01:02:51.000 I'm the first female whatever vice president.

01:02:55.000 To me, it's very different than the conversations that the conservative movement had.

01:03:01.000 Oh yeah, they avoid it like the plague, you know.

01:03:03.000 But there was that whole push for a while.

01:03:04.000 They were like, no, Trump has to pick a female vice president, which I thought was crazy.

01:03:08.000 Why does he have to do anything?

01:03:09.000 He doesn't.

01:03:11.000 But they were saying, well, you know, because they have this female, so we have to do it too.

01:03:15.000 Like, this is what makes me crazy, which is like, we all know that it should be about merit.

01:03:20.000 It should be about how successful this person is.

01:03:22.000 And instead, Somehow the RNC will start being like, well, but we should also play the identity game because they're doing it and that would make them happy.

01:03:30.000 Yeah.

01:03:31.000 So this is another component of the story.

01:03:32.000 Kamala Harris ridiculed for using bizarre Southern accent during Georgia rally, and it's not the first time.

01:03:38.000 She was code switching.

01:03:39.000 She does it all the time. 1.00

01:03:39.000 Code switching, huh? 1.00

01:03:42.000 But he and his running mate sure seem to have a lot to say about me.

01:03:46.000 And by the way, don't you find some of their stuff to just be plain weird?

01:03:55.000 What does that mean?

01:03:58.000 It's so rehearsed, right?

01:04:00.000 No authenticity whatsoever.

01:04:04.000 Well, Donald, I do hope you'll reconsider to meet me on the debate stage.

01:04:24.000 Because as the saying goes, if you've got something to say, say it to my face.

01:04:37.000 I'll say this loud and clear.

01:04:40.000 Without voter suppression, Code switching.

01:04:44.000 Yeah, what they used to do is they'd go to rallies and they'd put on a fake accent because you couldn't track it.

01:04:49.000 You know, before the internet, you'd show up, a newspaper would write about what you said, nobody would hear it, but all the people there would hear you speak like them.

01:04:49.000 Right.

01:04:57.000 Then you go to Brooklyn, you speak like them, then you go to California, you speak like them.

01:05:01.000 Mm-hmm.

01:05:03.000 Now it's code switching.

01:05:04.000 But you know who doesn't do that?

01:05:05.000 Donald Trump does not do that.

01:05:07.000 He speaks exactly the same to everyone. 0.95

01:05:10.000 He could be speaking to a room of garbage men or a room of astronauts or a room of, you know, giraffes and zookeepers. 0.81

01:05:17.000 He would always talk exactly the same, no matter who he's talking about.

01:05:17.000 It doesn't matter.

01:05:22.000 Yeah.

01:05:23.000 And I think people respond to that authenticity.

01:05:23.000 Yeah.

01:05:26.000 Yeah.

01:05:26.000 And what's interesting, too, is, as I was just saying a second ago, she hasn't held a press conference.

01:05:30.000 She took over Biden's campaign.

01:05:32.000 She has not given journalists an opportunity to ask her any questions.

01:05:37.000 She hasn't spoken from the briefing room.

01:05:40.000 She hasn't, you know, even just to take questions about her vice presidency.

01:05:44.000 She hasn't had any communication with reporters.

01:05:48.000 She's only stood up at rallies.

01:05:50.000 To be fair, that's in line with the Biden way of Sure.

01:05:54.000 But it's really a little bit much that the American people are not going to have a chance to vet this woman before she expects everyone to vote for her and before she's even really nominated.

01:06:06.000 Is she going to take press questions? 1.00

01:06:08.000 I think they're going to try to control her maybe even more than they controlled Biden, to be honest with you.

01:06:08.000 What do you think?

01:06:15.000 And that's really what leftists like.

01:06:19.000 They like, you know, they're the very collectivist in nature.

01:06:21.000 So they like the idea that there's no one person in charge, that there's sort of a board of directors making these decisions behind the scene.

01:06:28.000 That's why they were okay with putting Biden up in the first place, because they really knew he wasn't in charge.

01:06:33.000 And so I don't think that that will bother them at all.

01:06:35.000 If she doesn't take any press questions, if she doesn't do any interviews, if she doesn't do any debates, I think they're just fine with that because I think what they really want is the team of people behind her to be the ones actually making the decisions.

01:06:50.000 Whereas people on the right, they tend to like the idea of having an executive in charge.

01:06:55.000 You could say there's advantages and disadvantages to both, but we're okay.

01:06:59.000 We want somebody to be making the decisions, right?

01:07:02.000 It's more like running a SEAL team or something.

01:07:04.000 Somebody's got to make the call.

01:07:05.000 You have a point of contact.

01:07:06.000 Exactly.

01:07:07.000 You've got the head of this thing.

01:07:08.000 In their case, they don't want that.

01:07:10.000 They see anybody who has the ability to make a call as a dictator or some kind of authoritarian.

01:07:16.000 So I think they're going to try to control her as much as they can.

01:07:19.000 And I think she's totally fine with that.

01:07:22.000 I think she's going to put on a big tough persona out in public, but they're going to keep her away from any tough press questions. 0.99

01:07:29.000 My impression is that she's more dependent on the advisors and people who are kind of running her campaign in a way that Biden had more tension.

01:07:37.000 And I mean that because, you know, Biden was a successful politician.

01:07:41.000 I'm not saying he was a good guy, but he was, you know, a seasoned member of the federal government.

01:07:46.000 And he had won reelection on several different levels, you know, at various points.

01:07:51.000 So he You know, kind of knew how to campaign in a way that I don't know that Kamala has the same comparable experience.

01:07:56.000 But Biden, probably because of some age related stuff, or maybe just some sort of internal tension, seemed to be at odds at times with his advisors and his campaign, both in the White House and on the campaign trail.

01:08:07.000 Uh, Kamala, maybe because she doesn't have the experience that he had, or maybe because she is not in the same kind of mental space that he is, or maybe just because her campaign came together, what, like, last week, 10 days ago, 12 days ago?

01:08:23.000 It seems like she is really relying on whoever is being like, OK, this is what we're doing.

01:08:27.000 It's going to be Brad.

01:08:28.000 OK, now say the word weird.

01:08:29.000 It doesn't seem like she has her own personality.

01:08:32.000 It never seemed that way to me when she was running in 2020.

01:08:35.000 And especially to Libby's point, you know, Donald Trump is who he is no matter what room he's in, no matter how big the crowd is, no matter the location or venue.

01:08:44.000 There is a Donald Trump, and you know kind of what you're getting.

01:08:48.000 Well, she doesn't really have her personality. 0.80

01:08:50.000 And she never has over the years.

01:08:52.000 You're exactly right.

01:08:53.000 Biden existed in politics when he was a guy.

01:08:58.000 He was somebody important.

01:08:59.000 He was somebody that he expected people to listen to.

01:09:02.000 He had his own agency.

01:09:04.000 But that's not modern politics.

01:09:06.000 I mean, look at AOC.

01:09:06.000 Certainly not on the left.

01:09:08.000 They basically hired her to run for office. 1.00

01:09:11.000 That's the way that I see it.

01:09:13.000 Well, you're pretty.

01:09:15.000 You talk well in public.

01:09:16.000 You've got this fiery personality.

01:09:18.000 So we're going to make you a star.

01:09:22.000 We're going to make you somebody.

01:09:24.000 And I think Biden doesn't really like the idea of that happening because he existed in a time before that was the norm.

01:09:32.000 But that's really the way that leftist politics are going.

01:09:35.000 And, you know, unfortunately, you see some of that on the right where they're trying to run celebrities and what have you.

01:09:40.000 It just doesn't work out well.

01:09:42.000 Because there's that dissonance where we look at it and say, okay, you guys are running Dr. Oz.

01:09:47.000 Are you serious? 1.00

01:09:47.000 I mean, I don't, you know, this guy's an idiot. 1.00

01:09:50.000 I wouldn't listen to anything he says. 1.00

01:09:51.000 That was a mistake.

01:09:51.000 You're only putting him up there because he's got name recognition, which is exactly what we criticize the left for doing.

01:09:58.000 So why are you doing this?

01:09:59.000 And people aren't going to hold their nose and vote for him the way that people on the left will.

01:10:04.000 Dr. Oz was destroyed by Crudité.

01:10:06.000 That's right.

01:10:06.000 Amazing.

01:10:07.000 That's right. 0.99

01:10:08.000 Let's go nuts.

01:10:09.000 Here's the Postmillennial story.

01:10:11.000 Elon Musk accepts Nicolas Maduro's challenge to a live fight on national TV, says dictator will chicken out.

01:10:17.000 Who chickened out?

01:10:18.000 Was it Mark Zuckerberg or Elon?

01:10:20.000 I think it was Mark Zuckerberg, didn't he hurt his back?

01:10:23.000 No, that was Elon who hurt his back.

01:10:24.000 Oh.

01:10:25.000 I'm pretty sure Zuckerberg does BJJ.

01:10:27.000 So he was okay with it.

01:10:28.000 I'm pretty sure Zuckerberg was like, let's roll, and then Elon didn't do it.

01:10:32.000 I think that might be right.

01:10:33.000 I think Elon, though, said he wanted to do it in the Coliseum.

01:10:34.000 They were like, yeah, it's not happening.

01:10:36.000 That's not gonna happen.

01:10:36.000 So did he chicken out or did he just make it too impossible for that to happen?

01:10:40.000 That's how you do it.

01:10:43.000 He diva'd out.

01:10:44.000 Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro challenged ex-CEO Elon Musk to a fight on Monday, which Musk has now accepted via his platform.

01:10:51.000 In a national television broadcast, Maduro declared, Elon Musk, you are desperate, you went off the rails, and demanded Musk control himself or you will fail just like the right-wing-led all-American politicians do.

01:11:04.000 He continued, Whoever messes with me dries up.

01:11:06.000 Whoever messes with Venezuela dries up.

01:11:08.000 Elon Musk, you want to fight? Let's have it.

01:11:10.000 Elon Musk, I'm ready. I'm not afraid of you.

01:11:12.000 Let's go at it whenever you want.

01:11:14.000 Okay.

01:11:15.000 I want this so bad.

01:11:17.000 So Elon, what did he agree?

01:11:19.000 In response, the outburst follows a post from Musk on AXA that accused Maduro of major election fraud after Maduro and his rival claimed victory in the Venezuelan election.

01:11:27.000 Maduro, leave!

01:11:28.000 Venezuelans chose to end the communist dictatorship of Nicolas Maduro.

01:11:32.000 The data announced a crushing victory of the opposition, and the world is waiting for you to recognize the defeat after years of socialism, misery, decadence, and death, Musk wrote.

01:11:42.000 In response to the New York Post article that detailed the exchange and Maduro's subsequent challenge to a fight, Musk simply responded, I accept.

01:11:49.000 He fouled.

01:11:49.000 In another reply, he will chicken out.

01:11:52.000 How would that even happen?

01:11:53.000 Would Elon Musk have to go to Venezuela?

01:11:54.000 Yeah, right, they'd lock that guy up.

01:11:56.000 Maybe they could do it in Cuba.

01:11:57.000 They'd have to go to a different country altogether.

01:11:59.000 Neutral ground.

01:12:00.000 Yeah, I don't know, Mexico City?

01:12:02.000 Maybe Haiti? 0.64

01:12:03.000 Maybe Haiti.

01:12:04.000 Haiti is like, please, we will host this fight!

01:12:06.000 They would hold both of them for ransom.

01:12:10.000 I vote no. 1.00

01:12:10.000 Accidentally kill them both. 1.00

01:12:12.000 I vote no. 0.99

01:12:13.000 Elon Musk's work with X and SpaceX is substantially more important than him proving that Maduro is a crackpot.

01:12:20.000 Yeah, I don't... This wouldn't... I mean, proving Maduro is a crackpot, you don't need to fight him to do that.

01:12:26.000 I just think this trend of, like, wealthier influential men on Twitter, like, bringing fisticuffs to it, you know what I mean?

01:12:33.000 Like, whoa, whoa, no, this is a tradition, man.

01:12:35.000 I mean, we had dueling back in the day.

01:12:36.000 Well, we have let this tradition lap.

01:12:38.000 So if these men are trying to preserve culture and make dueling great again... I'm good with it.

01:12:42.000 But I'm talking about, like, fisticuffs, right?

01:12:44.000 A fight on national TV is the way we do it.

01:12:46.000 Because let me tell you, see, back in the day, people didn't understand this.

01:12:48.000 I like that you just say that's how we do it.

01:12:49.000 Well, because the duels weren't actually what people think they are.

01:12:53.000 A lot of people think that duels were like two guys deciding that someone's gonna die, and that's not necessarily true.

01:12:57.000 So, I was reading about this with Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, and I think it's been a while since I read about this, but I'm pretty sure Burr was like fervently, I'll kill you!

01:13:06.000 And Hamilton was like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we get it.

01:13:08.000 So when the challenge was made, typically duels were, your honor was challenged, you were insulted, and so you would stand in a duel to prove that you were honorable and you were dignified.

01:13:22.000 However, when they would actually draw their pistols, they would purposefully aim away and fire into a tree or into the ground.

01:13:29.000 So Alexander Hamilton is like, yeah, yeah, yeah, draws his pistol and fires it away, and Burgos is like, literally wanted them.

01:13:37.000 So duels were never actually about, I'm sure there were a lot of duels back in the day, like if you go 100,000 years, but like in our American history.

01:13:45.000 The duel was just to prove that you would stand by your words in the face of the most extreme circumstance.

01:13:52.000 So I say, you know, like a boxing match sanctioned with a ref, Elon Musk, Nicholas Maduro, I would prefer we have that over war.

01:14:00.000 How about this?

01:14:01.000 If there is a war to be had, Israel and Iran, here's what we do, you choose a champion, Israel chooses a champion, and we put them in a gladiator's ring, and then this determines the outcome of the conflict, I guess. 0.87

01:14:12.000 That's like the first scene in the movie Troy, right?

01:14:14.000 Right.

01:14:15.000 Let's not have this war, you choose your champion, we'll choose our champion who wins.

01:14:18.000 Yeah, it's good.

01:14:19.000 I mean, I'm down with that.

01:14:20.000 And they got the big brute dude, and then Brad Pitt takes his armor off and just starts running.

01:14:23.000 Running right at him, yeah.

01:14:24.000 Dude, that movie's great.

01:14:25.000 Love that, yeah.

01:14:28.000 We can get Mark Zuckerberg involved.

01:14:31.000 Yeah, do they have to bring seconds to this? 0.87

01:14:32.000 Does Elon bring Mark Zuckerberg?

01:14:34.000 Who would Maduro bring?

01:14:35.000 I don't know.

01:14:36.000 Who's running Cuba?

01:14:38.000 Mark Zuckerberg should be Elon Musk's second.

01:14:40.000 Right.

01:14:41.000 So who would Maduro bring?

01:14:42.000 It should be the Brazil guy. 0.95

01:14:45.000 Who's the Brazil guy? 0.93

01:14:47.000 Oh, uh, that's not Lula, is it?

01:14:48.000 Bolsonaro?

01:14:49.000 Yeah, Lula.

01:14:50.000 It should be Lula.

01:14:51.000 Yeah, but he's so old.

01:14:53.000 Look, we didn't say it was a good second.

01:14:57.000 Not that any of them were.

01:14:58.000 What's the second?

01:14:59.000 The second is just there to prepare you, right?

01:15:01.000 Or... Tag team!

01:15:02.000 Load your pistol, I think the second... No, this is fisticuffs.

01:15:06.000 No, it's there so that when Elon's getting tired, he runs over and he tags Zuckerberg and then Zuckerberg jumps in and...

01:15:12.000 A combo of dueling and, like, what is that, Mexican wrestling, lucha, or whatever?

01:15:16.000 I would take Mark Zuckerberg, or I would take Hulk Hogan as Elon Musk's second.

01:15:20.000 Elon, if you're listening, I'm totally open to being your second.

01:15:23.000 I got a lot of experience.

01:15:25.000 Imagine if you had, like, an MMA, Elon Musk versus Maduro, how expensive those tickets would be.

01:15:32.000 Like, legit, like $20,000 a ticket.

01:15:35.000 I mean, that's what it costs to go to the Super Bowl.

01:15:37.000 It would probably be a million dollars.

01:15:39.000 Wow, I'd have to go.

01:15:40.000 You'd have to go.

01:15:40.000 If they were just like, we're gonna do it in Vegas.

01:15:43.000 You'd have to go.

01:15:45.000 Maduro gets diplomatic protections.

01:15:47.000 And like, could you imagine Maduro like walking into the Octagon and he's got like his... Bruce Buffer, it's time!

01:15:55.000 How old are they?

01:15:55.000 So ready.

01:15:56.000 Maduro looks old.

01:15:58.000 Maduro's in his fifties.

01:16:00.000 Hey man, Maduro's a bus driver.

01:16:01.000 That means he's tough like Ralph Kramden.

01:16:04.000 Yeah, no, and I sincerely mean this, all credit to Maduro, he was not some uppity political class, country club, golf-swinging guy.

01:16:12.000 He's 75 years old.

01:16:14.000 Alright, I think Elon's got it.

01:16:16.000 I think he's got it.

01:16:17.000 That's why Elon checked his age before he accepted.

01:16:19.000 He's like, I'm good with this.

01:16:21.000 Oh my gosh, wouldn't that be amazing?

01:16:23.000 Oh boy.

01:16:24.000 This is the current state of geopolitics.

01:16:27.000 We have Iran ordering a retaliation strike on Israel, which we're freaked out about, and then you have Elon and Maduro having a flame war.

01:16:34.000 You know what's actually interesting is I remember, this is like the first time, this is I think 2014, it was Operation Protective Edge, Israel and Hamas.

01:16:46.000 The al-Qassam brigades were launching missiles into Israel.

01:16:51.000 And Israel was, of course, you know, Iron Dome, and there was some retaliation.

01:16:55.000 And then the Al-Qassam Brigades on Twitter, at the time it was Twitter, were tweeting like, you know, by the glory of Allah, we will destroy you and wipe you from the map. 0.58

01:17:02.000 And then the IDF responded to them being like, you can try, but you'll never succeed.

01:17:06.000 And then they went back and forth several times.

01:17:09.000 And then I'm sitting in this room with a bunch of journalists, and someone's just like, guys, I think this is the first actual flame war in a war.

01:17:17.000 Yeah, a real Twitter war.

01:17:19.000 Like, they're actually, they actually mean it, it's a war.

01:17:22.000 And then, in all seriousness, which was crazy, was it was one of the first times we got video footage of both sides of the conflict.

01:17:28.000 Right.

01:17:29.000 So, you had, I think this may have been Gaza.

01:17:34.000 The Hamas put GoPros on their guns, and Israel put GoPros on their APCs, and then when the footage got uploaded, people compiled it, and you could actually see both sides. 0.72

01:17:44.000 Yeah, and now that's just what you do.

01:17:47.000 I watch updates on the war in Ukraine twice a day, and that's all it is, is FPV videos of people getting drone bombed.

01:17:56.000 Everything's live now.

01:17:59.000 It's a totally different world.

01:18:01.000 People keep saying to pull up the Trump water video.

01:18:03.000 That's where he tightens the water bottle cap.

01:18:09.000 I can't wait till the article where it's like, that was a microaggression.

01:18:12.000 Oh, for sure.

01:18:13.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:18:15.000 Yeah, what is that?

01:18:17.000 He doesn't drink from it.

01:18:18.000 He grabs the water, he tightens the cap and puts it back on the table.

01:18:22.000 All right, let me pull this up.

01:18:24.000 We got nuance bro.

01:18:25.000 I don't know what it was for.

01:18:27.000 Yeah, it legit looks like He grabs her water bottle.

01:18:32.000 He tightens it down.

01:18:34.000 Did he really tighten it?

01:18:36.000 What did you say?

01:18:38.000 So, what I wanted to say was, the last time we spoke, you said some words that were perfect.

01:18:43.000 I don't know.

01:18:45.000 Maybe he tried to crack, maybe he realized the cap wasn't cracked and then he realized it wasn't his water and put it back.

01:18:51.000 Or like he, he didn't realize which water bottle was his.

01:18:55.000 He's been up there for a while.

01:18:56.000 He reaches for it, but then the lady is clearly asking a question and he's like, instead of taking a drink, I'm going to put a water bottle, like put this down.

01:19:01.000 Um, I like the idea that he just tightened it, uh, to see if she'd be able to open it later better.

01:19:06.000 But I don't actually think that's what this is.

01:19:08.000 Yeah, no, I don't think so.

01:19:10.000 Yeah, he should bring a mayonnaise jar to the debate and just hand it to Kamala and say, all right, you're gonna- Just answer, opens pickle jar. 0.83

01:19:16.000 She's answering, you just hear the click.

01:19:18.000 Oh yeah, yeah.

01:19:19.000 Yeah, some people say it looks like he's loosening the water bottle, but people keep messaging being like, pull the video, pull the video up.

01:19:25.000 What if he was loosening it for her?

01:19:26.000 What if she had tried to open it, couldn't?

01:19:28.000 So he's actually being a gentleman.

01:19:30.000 We'd never hear that story.

01:19:31.000 No.

01:19:31.000 I much preferred the story that I was told, that he grabbed it and tightened it as hard as he could so she couldn't get it and then put it back, but that is- I'm gonna go with that.

01:19:39.000 Well, it's not what happened.

01:19:40.000 It's not what happened.

01:19:41.000 Donald Trump has many things, but he has not that.

01:19:44.000 I wish he was.

01:19:45.000 Imagine being so petty.

01:19:49.000 That'd be great!

01:19:51.000 Anyway, I guess where no one really expects Elon Musk to fight Maduro, we're just wasting time by talking about two people who are insulting each other on the internet, which is all day every day.

01:20:03.000 It's a real serious situation going on in Venezuela, too.

01:20:07.000 It's sort of washing over the top of all that.

01:20:11.000 Well, look at that.

01:20:12.000 There's election rigging going on and people are getting shot in the street and Venezuelans can't defend themselves.

01:20:18.000 Well, I think that's what you get.

01:20:20.000 If you can't defend your vote, then you have nothing.

01:20:25.000 And if the government has all the guns, then eventually election rigging is going to happen.

01:20:31.000 I mean, look at how much corruption there is in government because there's really no oversight.

01:20:35.000 It's easy to get away with.

01:20:38.000 Imagine if they could get away with rigging elections and know that there's no recourse for the public to do anything about it.

01:20:45.000 Well, let's jump to this.

01:20:46.000 We have this tweet from David Marcus.

01:20:49.000 He says, I am crossing the Rubicon and backing the Republican Party and President Trump.

01:20:53.000 Many, including a former version of myself, get trapped in a mental framework that becomes their identity and prevents them from radically evolving their thinking with new facts and information.

01:21:02.000 I finally broke free from it.

01:21:04.000 My journey has been gradual political 180 from where I stood in every previous election.

01:21:09.000 It has been an eye-opening process of disenchantment, zero-basing lifelong beliefs, and rebuilding it from there.

01:21:14.000 I'll pause real quick before I read more.

01:21:16.000 David Marcus, CEO and co-founder of Lightspark, opened payments on Lightning, ran payments and crypto at Messenger and Meta, led PayPal, built three startups.

01:21:27.000 So this is a Facebook PayPal guy.

01:21:30.000 Saying he's changed his mind.

01:21:31.000 He's going Donald Trump.

01:21:33.000 He says in 2017 a good friend enlisted me to pitch the DNC to raise a hundred million dollars from Silicon Valley founders and executives.

01:21:39.000 The aim was to use these funds and know how to build a CRM and tech platform to prevent a repeat of Hillary Clinton's inadequate outdated 2016 campaign.

01:21:48.000 We met with DNC leadership who told us we could raise that money, but it would have to go to the general fund.

01:21:52.000 A single-digit percentage would then be allocated to tech in the wake of one of the most shocking failures they didn't want the help.

01:22:00.000 The next series of realizations began in 2019 when I was at META.

01:22:03.000 Right after we announced the Libra White Paper, I testified before the Senate and the House, and subsequently spent significant time in D.C.

01:22:09.000 engaging with lawmakers, cabinet members.

01:22:11.000 At the time, I still believed the mainstream idea that Democrats were all about serving the people.

01:22:14.000 However, I was shocked to learn that, for the most part, Republicans cared more deeply about their constituents, while Democrats, in my experience, cared more about government power and control.

01:22:23.000 This is my observation on balance, with many stories to back it up.

01:22:27.000 I also found that more Republicans wanted to understand our project's goals and took the time to learn about the risks of censoring payments and controlling the network.

01:22:35.000 I found myself remarkably aligned with them.

01:22:37.000 Then COVID came.

01:22:38.000 I'm going to skip over, I don't want to read his entire, you know, it looks like maybe a thousand words.

01:22:43.000 He says, some claim that re-electing President Trump will bring our democracy to its knees.

01:22:46.000 However, the alternative, having unelected individuals with this much power and no accountability run our government, coupled with four more years of bad policies at home and abroad, might present a more significant threat.

01:22:57.000 Neither will likely change in a Harris administration and could potentially worsen.

01:23:02.000 In this pivotal moment, confronted with the choices we have, I am endorsing and supporting a return to a Republican administration in 2025.

01:23:10.000 Silicon Valley, my friends, And we've seen with Elon Musk is going mega.

01:23:17.000 I think it's really interesting what he says, zero-basing lifelong beliefs, the eye-opening process of disenchantment, zero-basing lifelong beliefs and rebuilding from there.

01:23:25.000 Because I think that a lot of times what happens is people are not open-minded about what they believe.

01:23:31.000 And it's so important to always know what you believe and why you believe it and to interrogate the foundations of your beliefs so that you know at all times what it is that you think and why you think it.

01:23:42.000 And that way you are ruling your ideas as opposed to being ruled by them.

01:23:47.000 Yeah, I think people often are critical of how they came to the conclusions and this like any political or religious or whatever belief they sort of just roll with it or they take bad information and then build their lives around it without really thinking about why.

01:24:03.000 And, you know, Silicon Valley is so fascinating because I think For whatever reason, maybe just because it's in California, so many people just kind of assumed it was left.

01:24:14.000 It had to be, you know, Democratic stronghold when, you know, really it's a center for entrepreneurial spirit and energy.

01:24:21.000 They probably have a lot of contact with the federal government that's very unpleasant and, you know, a lot of our trade policies, a lot of our You know, national security issues really impacted that industry in particularly.

01:24:33.000 And so it's interesting to have someone come out and say, like, I was sort of default this way and I had to re-evaluate why.

01:24:41.000 And I think probably a lot of people do that all the time in their lives, but definitely during the last 10 years.

01:24:48.000 Well, what does this mean for us?

01:24:50.000 When Silicon Valley begins to flip, Mark Zuckerberg said Trump looked badass.

01:24:54.000 We know that Facebook censored that image.

01:24:56.000 But are we going to see, perhaps, closer to the election, Silicon Valley realigning behind Trump for a variety of reasons?

01:25:03.000 For one, if they do believe Trump is going to win, they're going to hedge their bets.

01:25:08.000 And they're going to go to Donald Trump, and they're going to go to his allies and say, do not destroy our company.

01:25:11.000 When you win, what do you want?

01:25:13.000 And so basically, these people just start pouring in and lining up behind Trump for that reason.

01:25:18.000 Yeah, and I think that's something that the right has suffered from is a lack of tech.

01:25:24.000 You know, they don't really have a lot of exposure, and maybe that's another reason that they see, well, this is an opportunity for us to actually, you know, he's talking in there about building this CRM tech platform for Hillary's campaign and how it was outdated.

01:25:38.000 I think the Republicans suffer from that much more, and so as a business opportunity, There's probably more money to be made from them approaching the right and saying, look, you guys are way out of date. 0.95

01:25:49.000 You know, your email lists suck. 0.97

01:25:50.000 You don't need us. 0.85

01:25:51.000 You need us as much as maybe we think we need you to pass the right kind of policy so we can make some money on this by reinventing you a new platform to be able to reach your potential voters.

01:26:04.000 And at the same time, they see the political winds shifting.

01:26:09.000 So maybe it's going to work out better for them to switch.

01:26:13.000 I'm not sure that that'll happen on the grander scale.

01:26:16.000 And it's a cascade effect.

01:26:18.000 They feel Trump's going to win.

01:26:19.000 The polling favors him.

01:26:20.000 So they start lining up behind him, which gives him the groundswell, gives him the tech advantage, and then Trump wins.

01:26:26.000 Cause they want the influence as well.

01:26:27.000 And they've been donating to him.

01:26:28.000 They had that big fundraiser in June.

01:26:32.000 You know, it was like Biden had the LA Hollywood fundraiser, but Trump had the Silicon Valley tech fundraiser.

01:26:40.000 I would rather have the tech fundraiser also because Hollywood turned on him so fast.

01:26:44.000 Like those are some fair weather friends.

01:26:47.000 Yep.

01:26:48.000 Should be interesting.

01:26:48.000 But I think the bigger question ultimately is just, we don't even know who the Democrat nominee is.

01:26:53.000 And we are 97 days out from the election.

01:26:55.000 So...

01:26:56.000 But that should all come together, like, basically next week, right?

01:26:59.000 Isn't the Ohio deadline August 7th?

01:27:02.000 I mean, they're supposed to have this virtual roll call?

01:27:05.000 Yeah, when's that supposed to be?

01:27:06.000 That's supposed to be pretty soon.

01:27:08.000 And they keep saying that, oh, this was planned since May.

01:27:11.000 But I think it's pretty, I think that whole thing is pretty fake, because what they want to avoid is some kind of floor fight.

01:27:17.000 Yeah, and if it was planned since May, give me the specific date.

01:27:19.000 They've been shifting around.

01:27:20.000 Don't say this, Ray.

01:27:21.000 It was planned because we covered the story.

01:27:23.000 Because of the Ohio thing.

01:27:24.000 Right, because Biden wasn't going to be on the ballot in Ohio because of it.

01:27:26.000 But I think it was pre-planned before that they knew Biden was going to drop out.

01:27:30.000 We had been discussing this almost a year ago.

01:27:31.000 They knew they were going to force him out.

01:27:33.000 Right.

01:27:33.000 I think they always floated the idea of having it.

01:27:35.000 It was something they thought about, but they, you know, I don't think the DNC is as organized and strategic as, they're not moving as one unit right now.

01:27:42.000 And I think there's a lot of internal fighting.

01:27:44.000 They're trying.

01:27:44.000 This is why they chose to have a debate.

01:27:46.000 Biden didn't need to debate Trump. He didn't debate before.

01:27:49.000 He hid in his basement.

01:27:50.000 They had a couple debates back in 2020, but he didn't need to debate him.

01:27:53.000 It was intentional so that they could create a public pressure and get popular support among

01:27:58.000 Democrat voters so that Biden would be removed. But the reason they did it was because they

01:28:02.000 didn't want RFK Jr. to win the nomination, and he would have.

01:28:05.000 Yeah, he would have.

01:28:06.000 Yeah, he's the one who should really be pissed about this.

01:28:10.000 Well, I mean, I guess so.

01:28:12.000 They do.

01:28:12.000 I mean, they did it to Bernie Sanders previously.

01:28:16.000 Could he not?

01:28:17.000 Is it too late for him to try and run on the Democrat ticket?

01:28:20.000 He's running as an independent.

01:28:21.000 He's already got the signatures.

01:28:22.000 He's saying he's going to stay as an independent.

01:28:25.000 Well, I guess it would be too late if they do the virtual roll call.

01:28:28.000 Otherwise, he could drum up support and have a floor fight.

01:28:31.000 You know you should do?

01:28:32.000 If I was RFK Jr.?

01:28:34.000 I mean, I guess the issue really just is if, you know, it's like RFK Jr.

01:28:37.000 doesn't like Trump.

01:28:37.000 Fine.

01:28:38.000 But if it were me...

01:28:40.000 I would seek the Democratic nomination on the floor, win it, and then a month out, resign

01:28:47.000 and endorse Trump.

01:28:48.000 Oh boy.

01:28:49.000 That's it.

01:28:50.000 You think that RFK is- I mean, they tried to whack Trump.

01:28:53.000 I think they already whacked one candidate.

01:28:55.000 I think they'd probably- Well that's why you need Secret Service protections.

01:28:59.000 But RFK Jr.

01:29:01.000 had that phone call with Trump where Trump asked him to endorse him.

01:29:05.000 And then that wasn't supposed to be released, I guess.

01:29:07.000 Was it RFK Jr.' 's kid released it and then they deleted it right away?

01:29:10.000 I would not be surprised if, in October, RFK Jr.

01:29:15.000 announces he's endorsing Donald Trump.

01:29:18.000 Because if RFK Jr.

01:29:20.000 goes to the Democrats and says, I want to reel in these corporations that are putting environmental toxins in our food and our medicines, etc., they're going to say, screw off.

01:29:29.000 We know who butters our bread.

01:29:31.000 If he goes to Trump and says, Trump's going to be like, okay.

01:29:34.000 Deal.

01:29:35.000 I want to win.

01:29:37.000 And we'll figure it out.

01:29:37.000 And RFK Jr.' 's going to be like, let's roll.

01:29:40.000 You know what really is crazy to me?

01:29:44.000 The paths to victory for Trump, even in 2020, because this is what I said, if Trump appointed Tulsi Gabbard to national security advisor in the last year of his term, and then asked Andrew Yang to be an economic advisor, he would have gotten such tremendous support from independents, post-liberals, and even many Democrats.

01:30:03.000 And a lot of conservatives, too.

01:30:05.000 But he didn't want to do it.

01:30:05.000 He wanted to play the traditional round.

01:30:07.000 I mean, he picked Pence.

01:30:09.000 He really thought he was playing ball.

01:30:11.000 He thought he was going in, he was going to play ball with the machine, but he was present.

01:30:14.000 He gets to say, and the intelligence agencies told him, no, we're going to tell you what to do.

01:30:17.000 And he said, no, thank you.

01:30:18.000 I have promises to keep.

01:30:19.000 And then so they accused him of being a spy working for Russia.

01:30:23.000 Let's say he gets elected.

01:30:24.000 Do you think that's what he'll do this time?

01:30:25.000 Do you think he'll make more aggressive cabinet picks?

01:30:31.000 Yes, more aggressive, but far from what we hope.

01:30:34.000 You know, look, you've got a lot of right-leaning libertarian types who are hoping he's going to go and schedule a left, just fire all these people, and he'll fire some.

01:30:43.000 It'll be a slow process.

01:30:45.000 The news will trickle out over a couple years of various people being fired.

01:30:50.000 And you mostly won't hear much, but a good amount of people will probably get fired from these bureaucratic positions.

01:30:55.000 And it's not going to be crazy.

01:30:57.000 There's not going to be military tribunals.

01:30:59.000 There's not going to be an insurrection act.

01:31:01.000 We already saw what a Trump term looks like.

01:31:03.000 This one will be slightly better.

01:31:05.000 He's not going to try and play ball early on.

01:31:07.000 But we saw what Trump did after he fired Bolton and stopped playing ball with these people.

01:31:11.000 It was still just a marginally good presidency with peace agreements, timelines for withdrawal from foreign countries.

01:31:17.000 The economy was doing pretty well until COVID.

01:31:19.000 And that's it.

01:31:20.000 That's it.

01:31:21.000 Illegal immigration was pretty low as well.

01:31:24.000 Yeah, there were a lot of encounters, but the scary thing is, when you see, when you check the amount of encounters from the border, that's because we're trying to stop them.

01:31:32.000 Right.

01:31:32.000 When you're not trying to stop them, the numbers disappear.

01:31:34.000 The numbers go down.

01:31:35.000 Right.

01:31:35.000 We just missed them.

01:32:02.000 I tweeted it, and you will see what I tweeted, but I'm going to keep this one because it's It's brutal.

01:32:09.000 It's about women and men in sports.

01:32:11.000 A woman was paralyzed. 1.00

01:32:12.000 A young teenage, young adult, 17 years old, paralyzed.

01:32:21.000 For now though, go to TimCast.com, click join us, and we'll read your superchats.

01:32:25.000 PolyPuree says, I hope I'm first, and indeed you are!

01:32:28.000 Congratulations.

01:32:29.000 Congratulations.

01:32:30.000 Robert Delacruz says, first?

01:32:32.000 Incorrect.

01:32:32.000 You lose.

01:32:35.000 Okay.

01:32:37.000 Dadpool says, good name by the way, would Timcast sponsor veterans trying to get hobbies instead of the easy way out?

01:32:43.000 We need extra help and a way to reach out besides mental health help.

01:32:50.000 I don't know that we could do anything like that.

01:32:51.000 I mean, we're not prepared for anything like that.

01:32:53.000 There's probably a lot of organizations that we could partner with and promote to help fund, but I don't know.

01:32:59.000 Maybe a skating event.

01:33:02.000 Yeah, Snake Farm.

01:33:03.000 Shout out to Snake Farm Skateboards.

01:33:05.000 They're a very veteran-oriented skateboard company.

01:33:07.000 I don't know their full company message or whatever, but we're friends with Cody, Julia, Chad.

01:33:15.000 And that's Snake Farm.

01:33:18.000 I agree with them.

01:33:19.000 Part of the problem with veteran mental health is a lot of them just want to get out of the house and be around other people and do something that gets their mind off what's going on.

01:33:30.000 We've sponsored a group in Michigan for a little while that was doing some shooting events for the same reason.

01:33:38.000 It's something that they're already interested in, but it's getting them out, getting them around other men.

01:33:43.000 People to talk to, you know, indirectly about their problems rather than trying to sit down in front of some counselor.

01:33:49.000 And yeah, anything that they could do to be more active is a great idea.

01:33:55.000 Check out snakefarmco.com because we're good friends with these guys and it's veteran oriented.

01:34:02.000 I think the website's mostly clothing, but I wonder if they have their skateboards up because it's a skateboard company too.

01:34:06.000 That's how I know.

01:34:07.000 Sometimes I think it's hard for people to find all these resources.

01:34:09.000 Like, there are a lot of people doing really great, specific work that have a lot of options, but... Hard to find.

01:34:15.000 Yeah, and I think for generally, you know, my observational anecdotal experience has just been that transitioning out of the military is not as easy.

01:34:22.000 As anyone thinks about it, you know, I think it's actually very difficult.

01:34:26.000 And for a lot of people, especially who are, you know, been for a while, who have had these specific careers, like translating your experience to the outside world is complicated.

01:34:35.000 So part of it is just, I wish there were, there's like an encyclopedia or a go-to place where it could be like, I'm a veteran, I'm looking for this kind of support, or I have these kinds of interests, or I need, you know, whatever.

01:34:46.000 Because so often it's just, you know, you could Google search forever, but you're not connected to what you need.

01:34:52.000 All right, Marodney says, can I get a shout-out for my birthday tomorrow?

01:34:55.000 Currently celebrating that and my three-month sobriety by having a couple glasses of whiskey.

01:35:00.000 Back to sobriety tomorrow and the gym next week.

01:35:00.000 Oof.

01:35:03.000 So long as you're not seriously compromising your sobriety and if you just mean you're trying to be healthy.

01:35:09.000 You know, some people...

01:35:12.000 If someone is someone who's not an alcoholic and they don't drink all the time, but they decided just to stop drinking, then it's no big deal if you're like, well, I haven't had a drink in three months, but I'll have some tonight.

01:35:21.000 That's fine.

01:35:22.000 But certainly I hope that you're not fighting for sobriety and deciding to take the night off.

01:35:26.000 You should not do that.

01:35:27.000 Yeah, I would agree.

01:35:29.000 But anyway, happy birthday.

01:35:31.000 Happy birthday.

01:35:32.000 Titan Soap says, is anyone buying the rebranding of Kamala?

01:35:35.000 Yes, they are.

01:35:37.000 Welcome to American politics.

01:35:38.000 I mean, you look at the rally and you've got all the people behind her and they're all

01:35:40.000 cheering and hooting her on and it's like, man, you know, it's really crazy.

01:35:44.000 Is if if you went to the average Democrat and actually showed them real news, I'm sure

01:35:51.000 they would experience physical pain.

01:35:53.000 It's from the cognitive dissonance.

01:35:56.000 Because, a good example, Politico reported that Ukraine interfered in the 2016 election to help Hillary Clinton, and Politico reported a few years later that it was actually Russian disinformation that Ukraine interfered in the election to help Hillary Clinton.

01:36:10.000 So, Politico is Russian disinformation?

01:36:13.000 That's not to say that showing someone this story makes them support Trump.

01:36:16.000 It shows them that what they think is true is false.

01:36:19.000 Yeah, I had a conversation with a woman at the yoga studio I go to.

01:36:25.000 Definitely on the left, I would say she would probably describe herself as a communist, actually. 0.90

01:36:30.000 And we were just chatting outside and we started talking about Kyle Rittenhouse.

01:36:35.000 And it was just crazy to me how, I mean, we had a good conversation about it.

01:36:41.000 We're good friends, but, you know, the perception. 0.99

01:36:46.000 Oh, well, he shot a bunch of black people. 0.99

01:36:48.000 He shot this woman. 0.98

01:36:49.000 It's like hold on a second Where did where did you get that?

01:36:52.000 I mean this and this has been this is like old news It's been around for years.

01:36:55.000 You could have looked at this anytime you want but Lurch685 says, Iran has hypersonic missiles and FAFO.

01:37:04.000 So let me give you the quick breakdown for hypersonic missiles.

01:37:08.000 All ICBMs are hypersonic.

01:37:10.000 The issue, however, is that when they're talking about hypersonics, they're talking about missiles that stay closer to the ground, which gives much less time for radar to detect.

01:37:20.000 The way you can think about it is, here's the curvature of the Earth, and if the radar is pointing up here, and you fire an ICBM, oh, we can see you, baby.

01:37:27.000 We can see you in the sky.

01:37:28.000 But if you've got a hypersonic close to the ground, it's gonna get real close to you before you notice it's there, and then, how do you defend?

01:37:34.000 That's the scary thing.

01:37:37.000 Yeah, I'm not sure about that.

01:37:38.000 I think there's a lot of debate whether it's true, you know, hypersonic is such a new technology that every country is claiming they've got hypersonic missiles.

01:37:46.000 But you know, even Russia, some of the missiles that they say are hypersonic, they are to some degree at certain points of the trajectory, but not all the way.

01:37:54.000 So I I would be shocked to see Iran investing that much money into hypersonic missiles when they could be producing tens of thousands of low-cost drones that fly, you know, 400 miles an hour.

01:38:05.000 But it's, you know, volume and saturation.

01:38:08.000 You can't shoot.

01:38:10.000 The Iron Dome is great.

01:38:11.000 They don't have enough missiles to shoot down 10,000 drones.

01:38:14.000 That's the end of the story.

01:38:16.000 And also even the weaponized consumer-grade drones.

01:38:18.000 that you see for use in Ukraine. These are small drones that can carry a couple kilograms

01:38:24.000 and they can put explosives on it. Warfare is getting crazy, man.

01:38:28.000 They're 3D printing them in the field. I mean, I'm friends with a couple guys that 3D print

01:38:32.000 guns, they 3D print small FPV racing drones, and these things can fly 50, 60 miles an hour.

01:38:40.000 And yeah, they don't carry a ton, but, you know, one pound of C4 can do a whole lot of

01:38:44.000 damage.

01:38:45.000 Those Ukrainian videos are out. They're horrifying, dude. 1.00

01:38:49.000 This is why I'm pissed off the US is involved in this stuff, because I don't even want to talk

01:38:53.000 We'll save it for the members only because I don't want to start describing these things.

01:38:53.000 about it.

01:38:57.000 Watch Military Summary Channel on YouTube and you'll see as much of that as you'll ever need to.

01:39:02.000 You'll get some interesting updates on Ukraine, maybe from a pro-Russian perspective, but that's sort of counter to what you see in the U.S.

01:39:10.000 news media that's obviously very pro-Ukraine and it'll change your mind about what you think about modern warfare for sure.

01:39:17.000 All right, Ben Hickson says, Tim, I saw your Civil War face-off quiz.

01:39:20.000 The score at the end left me speechless, just like the best-selling book by Michael Knowles.

01:39:26.000 That was a whole lot of fun.

01:39:29.000 Michael and I, it was really funny because...

01:39:33.000 I got caught off guard.

01:39:34.000 They asked me if I wanted to do a Civil War thing, and I was like, I don't know.

01:39:37.000 I mean, if he's preparing for it, I mean, and you guys are setting it up, I'll just lose, but sure, we'll roll.

01:39:42.000 And then the first question was, who killed, I can't remember, Mary?

01:39:49.000 I don't know Tony Stark's mom's name.

01:39:52.000 But Howard Stark, to start the events of Avengers Civil War.

01:39:55.000 And then I just laughed.

01:39:57.000 It actually caught me off guard, and I froze for a second, and I was like, Oh yeah, yeah, Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier.

01:40:02.000 And I was like, I did not expect that question.

01:40:04.000 I'm like, listening to him, I'm wondering if the first question is going to be, what was the nickname of the man who led the march to the sea?

01:40:14.000 And then I'm waiting for some, and then it's an Avengers question.

01:40:17.000 And then he had a couple other, they had a couple other silly ones, but it was ultimately pretty good.

01:40:21.000 However, I must stress, as many people pointed out, there was a couple instances where casualty and deaths were confused.

01:40:29.000 And I believe he asked what was the deadliest battle, and it was Gettysburg and he said 50,000 dead.

01:40:33.000 I think that's what the comment said, and it was 8,000 dead and 50,000 casualties.

01:40:39.000 And then I said that I thought it was like 1.8 million dead, but I mixed up casualties in my answer because it was 1.6 something million casualties in the Civil War, which is captured, wounded, or dead.

01:40:52.000 But other than that, it was great fun.

01:40:55.000 And then at the end, we did double or nothing, and I won and Michael lost, so.

01:41:01.000 Wow.

01:41:01.000 The score was 22-0, I believe.

01:41:03.000 Yeah, it was funny, because the last question was in their hit single, Together Again, by Smokey Mike and the God King, what was the original runtime?

01:41:11.000 And I knew the answer was around five minutes, and then Michael's like, that's not fair, he worked on the cover song, so he's like, he knows the runtime.

01:41:20.000 And I'm like, you wrote the song!

01:41:23.000 You picked the game, yeah.

01:41:25.000 But it's his song, he wrote it.

01:41:27.000 Yeah, so that was a lot of fun.

01:41:28.000 Guys, check that out, because it was actually really informative and really fun.

01:41:34.000 And there are some funny moments.

01:41:35.000 People like that I drew a picture of a cat.

01:41:37.000 And I did.

01:41:39.000 Alright.

01:41:41.000 Larch says, there was no strike in Israel.

01:41:42.000 Golan Heights is occupied Syrian territory.

01:41:46.000 Well, okay.

01:41:48.000 John Kristen says, in a world where normal is weird, be a rebel and be weird.

01:41:53.000 There's no normal.

01:41:55.000 It's just like, I don't know, man, be you.

01:41:57.000 Do your thing.

01:41:58.000 And do it with confidence.

01:41:59.000 Because, uh, the example I like to give is, in high school there are two people.

01:42:04.000 One guy farts, and then looks around and is embarrassed, and then people point him out and say, ah, look, he farted, and they start laughing, no I didn't, shut up, I didn't fart.

01:42:12.000 The other guy leans back and goes, hey guys, check this out.

01:42:15.000 And then intentionally farts and laughs about it. 1.00

01:42:18.000 And they go, oh, you're a dick. 1.00

01:42:20.000 Two people who did the same thing. 1.00

01:42:21.000 One guy owned it and laughed about it.

01:42:23.000 And it's interesting because I try to use the silliest way to describe this.

01:42:29.000 But the real difference is an individual who is ashamed and an individual who is proud. 0.52

01:42:34.000 Like, look, dude, everybody farts, grow up, cry about it.

01:42:37.000 You choose to be embarrassed or not.

01:42:39.000 You want to live every day Proud of who you are and what you do.

01:42:43.000 And if someone insults you, you can be like, well, that's what I am, I guess.

01:42:46.000 All I can really do is wake up, go to work, buy food and take care of business.

01:42:50.000 So that's just me.

01:42:51.000 They want to come out and be like, Trump's weird.

01:42:52.000 I'd be like, okay.

01:42:54.000 I guess weird is good.

01:42:55.000 Cause I like Trump.

01:42:57.000 Good weird.

01:42:58.000 Let's roll.

01:43:00.000 You're welcome.

01:43:01.000 I love Public Square.

01:43:03.000 I've had many good conversations with Michael.

01:43:10.000 They've got a lot of stuff in the works.

01:43:13.000 I'm pretty excited about trying to You know, ammunition is always a product that's tough to

01:43:19.000 sell on the internet.

01:43:21.000 There's a lot of rules, a lot of regulations, but they're really working hard to make Public

01:43:24.000 Square be the place for gun companies that Amazon never will be.

01:43:29.000 So I'm really excited to see what he's going to do.

01:43:33.000 He actually called me when he was at the RNC convention, and him and I are going to get together.

01:43:39.000 I'm not sure how much I'm actually able to say, but anyway, he has some great ideas.

01:43:45.000 He wanted us to take a look at it, and I'm super excited to work with those guys.

01:43:48.000 Good things in the works.

01:43:49.000 We'll leave it at that.

01:43:51.000 Cristiano says Judge Joe Brown says Kamala ain't black.

01:43:54.000 They're dropping savage clips from the interview over on the Art of Dialogue channel.

01:43:58.000 Interesting.

01:43:59.000 Yeah, Joe Brown's great.

01:44:00.000 Watch his interview on the PBD podcast.

01:44:03.000 It's great.

01:44:05.000 I saw that interview.

01:44:06.000 I think it was, it probably was NBC.

01:44:08.000 They had sent a reporter to talk to black men, you know, after she had been announced as the presumptive heir apparent to the Biden campaign, I guess.

01:44:15.000 And, you know, it was clear the interviewer was caught off guard because he asked them, he's like, So, you know, now that Biden is out, will you support Kamala Harris?

01:44:24.000 Like, expecting it to be yes.

01:44:26.000 And all of them are like, no.

01:44:27.000 There's five different guys and they're like, no.

01:44:29.000 And he's like, who are you going to support?

01:44:30.000 And they're like, Donald Trump.

01:44:32.000 I think there is sort of an expectation that everybody fall in line with this campaign, but I don't think she's as appealing as they clearly are hoping she will suddenly become.

01:44:42.000 She hasn't ever been appealing.

01:44:43.000 Yeah.

01:44:44.000 I think we're going to be surprised at the split of the vote between black men in particular.

01:44:52.000 I think you're right.

01:44:54.000 I think it'll be a reckoning to be sure, or at least an early wake-up call.

01:44:59.000 I think a lot of them are going to be telling their wives they voted for Kamala and they're going to have voted for Trump.

01:45:02.000 And I've had many of those conversations in the last week.

01:45:08.000 Let's grab some more.

01:45:09.000 What have we here?

01:45:13.000 Fat Hravdsky?

01:45:17.000 Employee of Mars here.

01:45:19.000 The whole plant went down due to the CrowdStrike update.

01:45:21.000 It was a forced update.

01:45:22.000 Normally, they give it to Mars, then the control guys put in the virtual machine, and then... Oh, interesting.

01:45:28.000 Do you mean like Mars candy bars?

01:45:31.000 Yeah, Mars Incorporated.

01:45:31.000 Yeah, probably.

01:45:33.000 Employee of Mars?

01:45:34.000 Mars Inc?

01:45:35.000 They make all of your favorite candy bars.

01:45:37.000 What does Mars have?

01:45:38.000 Milky Way?

01:45:39.000 They make Snickers? 0.78

01:45:40.000 Yeah, I think, you know, at the top there's probably only like two or three actual companies.

01:45:44.000 Yeah, there's Hershey's and there's Mars.

01:45:48.000 Nestle.

01:45:49.000 Nestle.

01:45:49.000 Can I just stop real quick to let everyone just stew on how weird a candy bar is?

01:45:57.000 I do not remember the last time I ate a candy bar.

01:45:59.000 What's weird about it?

01:46:01.000 Okay, a piece of candy I understand.

01:46:03.000 Like those Lindor truffles?

01:46:04.000 It is a small ball of chocolate and you eat it.

01:46:06.000 It's one bite and it is a treat.

01:46:08.000 A candy bar is an amalgam, a large one, of sugar and sugar and sugar mashed into a like 300 calorie bar.

01:46:19.000 And I just think that's kind of strange.

01:46:21.000 You don't think Snickers really satisfies?

01:46:23.000 I think it satisfies your sugar craving.

01:46:26.000 How much sugar is in there?

01:46:27.000 I mean in college I honestly, there were times where I was up late studying and peanut M&M's were like the perfect combination of sugar and protein.

01:46:37.000 I don't mind so much an M&M though.

01:46:39.000 It's not a candy bar.

01:46:41.000 An M&M is one thing and you can choose to eat like three or four of them or eat a whole bag, whatever.

01:46:45.000 I just think like a candy bar is a block of sugar and caramel and I'm just like that's kind of strange.

01:46:51.000 It's a weird snack.

01:46:52.000 Is it stranger than going to Starbucks and getting, um, you know, a triple whatever.

01:46:58.000 The caramel, what is the caramel?

01:46:59.000 180 grams.

01:47:00.000 I saw a video on Twitter where they showed, uh, they scooped sugar into a cup next to the actual Starbucks drink.

01:47:06.000 And I mean, it was almost two thirds full.

01:47:08.000 It's a liquid candy bar.

01:47:10.000 Liquid candy bar.

01:47:11.000 It's more than that.

01:47:12.000 The caramel frappuccino.

01:47:14.000 Is just pure insanity.

01:47:16.000 Yeah.

01:47:16.000 They like, they pour caramel on the bottom, then they line it with caramel, then they fill it with a sugary milk drink.

01:47:23.000 There's no coffee in it.

01:47:24.000 No.

01:47:24.000 Yeah, because the caramel drizzle one is like, it's got, and they take sugar crystal crumbles and they mix it all in.

01:47:31.000 Have you guys seen the like, it'll be like a, you know, Instagram or TikTok or whatever, where they're doing a coffee drink at home.

01:47:38.000 And they pour caramel on chocolate, or chocolate, on the outside of the glass.

01:47:42.000 Have you guys seen this?

01:47:43.000 On the outside?

01:47:44.000 And they pour it on the outside of the glass.

01:47:46.000 And then they like... It's a garnish.

01:47:48.000 Yeah, but it's like, meanwhile... It's like the salt on the margarita.

01:47:50.000 Yeah, but it's not like the salt on the margarita.

01:47:53.000 No, I mean, they drizzle the outside of the glass.

01:47:56.000 With chocolate.

01:47:56.000 Oh, the whole glass?

01:47:57.000 I ain't touching that.

01:47:58.000 No, it's disgusting and weird.

01:47:59.000 And it's always somebody with, like, really long fingernails.

01:48:01.000 Hey, easy with weird.

01:48:02.000 That's some, like, ASMR going on.

01:48:03.000 I thought we didn't care about weird.

01:48:05.000 Yeah, we didn't care.

01:48:06.000 I, uh, the other day, for breakfast, I make an oat flour pancake with, I mix in some oatmeal, have some butter on it, a protein shake.

01:48:15.000 And then I don't have lunch.

01:48:17.000 And then for dinner, I had carne asada.

01:48:19.000 It was just like thin steak with rice and beans.

01:48:22.000 It was delicious.

01:48:23.000 And I felt great, and then I had a protein shake later at night.

01:48:26.000 And when I went to bed, it was the first time I've got two fitness trackers, and they both gave me a perfect score.

01:48:32.000 It was just like, whatever you did!

01:48:34.000 And I was like, I ate light, low-sodium meat, rice and beans, and didn't eat garbage.

01:48:39.000 And I usually don't eat tons of garbage, but always just a little bit.

01:48:42.000 There's always something in there.

01:48:44.000 But this one day, and I'm just like, man, I don't think people realize how bad they feel.

01:48:51.000 Because they eat this stuff all day every day.

01:48:53.000 Yeah.

01:48:54.000 Yeah, I think that's a thing, too.

01:48:56.000 Yeah, I'm pretty careful about what I eat.

01:48:58.000 And I don't think we are always honest about, like, what it is we're eating.

01:49:02.000 Because what I'm thinking of right now is, when I was growing up, Fruit by the Foot was, like, the cool thing, right?

01:49:07.000 Like, you wanted your mom to buy that.

01:49:09.000 My mom never did.

01:49:10.000 And put it in your lunchbox.

01:49:11.000 And I'm pretty sure it was sold next to, like, the gummy fruit snacks that, like, Mott's or Welch's sells now.

01:49:18.000 But I was in a gas station the other day, and they're selling the Fruit by the Foot with the candy now.

01:49:23.000 So I'm just saying it was always candy.

01:49:26.000 It's just eventually someone was like, OK, either this product dies or we call it what it is.

01:49:31.000 Right.

01:49:31.000 And I think that happens to a lot of people.

01:49:33.000 Like, you know, all kinds of fad products will be like, oh, you have to eat this cereal.

01:49:37.000 It's great.

01:49:37.000 And you read the ingredients or become more aware of what it is.

01:49:40.000 It's not good.

01:49:41.000 I'm not sure that Mars is a reference to the candy bar company, but I don't know what else it could be.

01:49:47.000 So, you know, there you go.

01:49:48.000 Who knows?

01:49:49.000 Let's grab some more.

01:49:51.000 John Maxwell says, what would you all order from Chili's?

01:49:55.000 The only thing I'd ever order from Chili's, when I worked for O'Hare Airport, we had a Chili's to go right above where we worked, and I just ordered french fries.

01:50:03.000 I haven't been to a Chili's in so long.

01:50:06.000 Did they have the, they used to have, I think they had what they called tostada nachos. 0.94

01:50:11.000 It was like basically big nachos, like, you know, only like maybe 10 of them, but they were piled up.

01:50:15.000 I think that's probably the only thing I can name at a Chili's.

01:50:19.000 I can't think of what I'd order at a Chili's, but, you know, I know from Applebee's, like, I've gotten their burgers and stuff, and it's totally fine.

01:50:26.000 Chili's. 0.99

01:50:27.000 I do remember when Chili's was doing their, like, margarita promotion, where it was, like, $5 ritas, but they're mostly water.

01:50:32.000 Is Chili's the Funyuns?

01:50:37.000 Not the Funyuns.

01:50:37.000 The Bloomin' Onion.

01:50:39.000 No, that's Outback Steakhouse.

01:50:41.000 Okay.

01:50:41.000 Traditional Australian cuisine.

01:50:43.000 Exactly.

01:50:44.000 Just like they made it at home.

01:50:45.000 You know, I don't eat fast food.

01:50:48.000 Except Taco Bell.

01:50:50.000 You're a big Taco Bell guy.

01:50:52.000 Rarely.

01:50:52.000 I think I've had Taco Bell three times.

01:50:57.000 No, maybe five times this year.

01:50:58.000 Because there was one period where we had it like two times that we ordered it for everybody early in the year.

01:51:03.000 But I think maybe five times this year I've had Taco Bell.

01:51:05.000 And that's the only thing.

01:51:06.000 You count five guys as fast food?

01:51:08.000 Yeah.

01:51:09.000 Okay.

01:51:09.000 Well, I eat five guys every Tuesday.

01:51:11.000 It's not the worst.

01:51:12.000 You know, they're pretty good.

01:51:13.000 I've had five guys maybe five times this year as well, and it is fast food.

01:51:17.000 So, fair point.

01:51:18.000 I do have fast food.

01:51:19.000 But I think the only big problem with it is the salt.

01:51:22.000 It's too much.

01:51:23.000 I don't think people realize how much the salt really messes you up.

01:51:26.000 Salt?

01:51:27.000 Yeah.

01:51:27.000 See, I'm kind of the opposite.

01:51:28.000 I think people don't eat enough salt.

01:51:30.000 I actually put salt in my water most of the time.

01:51:33.000 I mean, there are days where I work out twice a day, so you're losing a lot of salt and potassium.

01:51:37.000 So maybe for your average person, it's not working out very much.

01:51:40.000 Oh, dude.

01:51:40.000 A McDonald's cheeseburger is, what, 48% of your daily sodium intake?

01:51:44.000 Yeah.

01:51:45.000 I could be wrong.

01:51:46.000 Don't get mad at McDonald's, but something really high.

01:51:47.000 But who decided that that was the right number?

01:51:49.000 The same people that created the food pyramid?

01:51:52.000 Well, I'll put it this way.

01:51:53.000 I started paying attention to the amount of salt in my food because it was messing me up.

01:51:57.000 Yeah, I'm just tired all the time, dehydrated all the time, because everything's got so much salt in it.

01:52:01.000 I'm like, just don't put salt in my food, man.

01:52:03.000 I'll drink a coconut water or something.

01:52:05.000 I'll get my salt where I need to get it.

01:52:07.000 But everything's loaded with salt.

01:52:09.000 Heat fried, covered in oil and bread and salt.

01:52:12.000 Not if you just cook all your I mean, I even make like, I even make my own junk food.

01:52:17.000 You know, like I'll make pizza or like I'll make birria tacos or I make different like, because after we left New York and there's not a lot of takeout options.

01:52:27.000 So I started learning how to make a lot of takeout options.

01:52:30.000 So, you know, I'll make my own ramen.

01:52:32.000 I put a whole tablespoon of salt in my sourdough bread and it's good and salty and it's great.

01:52:37.000 Yeah, but that's... I just mean, like, you go out to eat, everything's loaded with salt, like, to an insane degree.

01:52:43.000 Yeah, at restaurants, for sure.

01:52:45.000 Alright, Megha Johnson says, Tim, was the Casper discount forever?

01:52:48.000 I bought together again.

01:52:50.000 Thought it included a lifetime discount.

01:52:52.000 Great coffee.

01:52:52.000 Greatest podcast.

01:52:53.000 God bless.

01:52:54.000 Yes!

01:52:55.000 It did.

01:52:57.000 And so if something happens, send an email to Casperoo to make sure it's still functioning.

01:53:04.000 The challenge is it's hard to track who, like, hard to track.

01:53:08.000 Although we, like, if you bought together again, you should have a permanent discount.

01:53:14.000 Only if, I think, you had to, I think what it was is you had to use the subscribe.

01:53:23.000 The discount was good for like a certain amount of time, but if you subscribed to a coffee with the discount, the discount applied to your subscription forever.

01:53:30.000 And what was supposed to happen is if you ended the subscription, but then restarted it later, the discount would still apply.

01:53:38.000 But, if you bought product with the discount, then came back three months later, it wouldn't work.

01:53:44.000 So it was like... Yeah, you had to subscribe.

01:53:47.000 There you go.

01:53:49.000 All right, all right.

01:53:52.000 Elegant News says, Trump should apologize for having dinner with white supremacist Kanye.

01:53:58.000 When she brought that up, he should have been like, well, you know, that was a that was yay.

01:54:01.000 What are you guys talking about?

01:54:02.000 And, you know, he and so I'm sorry that he came.

01:54:06.000 I thought he was a great guy.

01:54:07.000 But apparently you don't like him.

01:54:08.000 So I apologize.

01:54:10.000 He called him yay.

01:54:14.000 JH251 says, They said that Biden was running for president.

01:54:18.000 He dropped that after the debate.

01:54:19.000 Who's to say that Kamala won't do the same thing? 1.00

01:54:21.000 Trump wants to make sure the debate is with the real Democrat candidate.

01:54:25.000 No, I agree.

01:54:27.000 Don't even know.

01:54:27.000 I think it'd be so late.

01:54:28.000 I mean, let's say they debate- Well, they can't get on the ballots.

01:54:30.000 Yeah, they wouldn't be able to get on the ballots.

01:54:32.000 I don't think- Well, it was like when people were saying, or Ron McDaniels was like, Trump shouldn't skip the primary debates. 0.87

01:54:38.000 That's ridiculous. 0.69

01:54:39.000 He needs to do this. 0.98

01:54:40.000 And actually the reality was like, he didn't need to do that at all.

01:54:44.000 He was polling way ahead and, you know, it only served to benefit them.

01:54:49.000 I think it's similar with the debates right now.

01:54:51.000 Acknowledging Kamala before she is officially, like, at least people cast ballots for Biden, right?

01:54:58.000 No one's cast a ballot in favor of Harris being the presidential candidate for the Democrats.

01:55:03.000 Agreeing to a debate right now, especially if they're going to, you know, roll call nominate her next week, it only serves to make her seem like a legitimate challenger, which they're desperately trying to make her legitimate as fast as possible. 0.82

01:55:14.000 Alsory says, actually Kamala isn't even part Jamaican.

01:55:17.000 Her mother is Indian, and her father stated he's Irish and Indian that came from Jamaica.

01:55:21.000 Not indigenous Jamaican, he just lived his life in a British colony. 0.97

01:55:25.000 Is that true?

01:55:27.000 I've heard that she- I had heard that before.

01:55:29.000 Her family has ties to, like, the slave trade in Jamaica, but I don't- Yeah, Irish background.

01:55:34.000 Irish slave trade.

01:55:34.000 Yeah.

01:55:35.000 Yeah.

01:55:35.000 That true?

01:55:36.000 Yeah.

01:55:37.000 Wow.

01:55:38.000 Or like Great Great Something was an Irish slave trader.

01:55:40.000 I want to say they were talking about that back when she was running in the primary back in 2020.

01:55:46.000 That was one of the arguments.

01:55:47.000 Now I'll tell you, I don't care about any of that, but woke people sure do.

01:55:50.000 Sure.

01:55:51.000 So let's see what they think when they find out that their champion, who they've always loved and supported and who was their favorite person ever, and they all voted for... I'm kidding.

01:56:02.000 Nobody voted for her.

01:56:03.000 Nobody likes her.

01:56:03.000 So I'm pretty sure nobody will care.

01:56:05.000 They'll just be like, yeah, we don't like her either.

01:56:06.000 And it's like, okay.

01:56:08.000 Bill Huxtra says, the weird branding amongst everyone could possibly be the one thing that could be used as a unifying method.

01:56:15.000 I agree.

01:56:16.000 Trump should come out and say, like, keep it weird.

01:56:18.000 Keep it weird, yeah.

01:56:20.000 Keep it weird.

01:56:21.000 I mean, if he just came out and he was like, we don't like the boring status quo deep state!

01:56:26.000 Uniparty, now we're weird!

01:56:27.000 I just feel like you should be like, is weird the best you've got?

01:56:31.000 That's your big claim to fame, that we're weird?

01:56:34.000 Sorry, I couldn't care less.

01:56:36.000 Weird is cool.

01:56:37.000 That's why I was saying, if the Democrats were like, hey you're weird, I'd go, oh.

01:56:42.000 How about that?

01:56:43.000 I mean, some of the most fun stuff I've ever done is things people would consider weird, but my brother actually got into this thing called straight lining.

01:56:49.000 The idea is you want to go from one side of your city to the other in a perfectly straight line, and then they score you.

01:56:56.000 So you basically plot a path, and then they have different levels.

01:57:02.000 Gold level is you can only deviate 20 meters from the line you choose.

01:57:06.000 So if you choose a line that goes through a swamp, you're screwed.

01:57:09.000 What is that building? 1.00

01:57:10.000 You're screwed. 1.00

01:57:11.000 You picked a bad line. 1.00

01:57:12.000 Silver, I think, is 40 meters.

01:57:15.000 Bronze is like 60.

01:57:16.000 But he has an app.

01:57:18.000 He actually did it.

01:57:20.000 He's got it on YouTube.

01:57:21.000 He did it through Novi, I think, a week and a half ago.

01:57:24.000 And I think he achieved the silver level.

01:57:26.000 But it was pretty tough.

01:57:27.000 I mean, he was in a swamp, like up to his waist at one point.

01:57:29.000 What city?

01:57:31.000 Novi, where we live and where our factory is.

01:57:35.000 He had to get around some buildings, but part of it is choosing the right line.

01:57:39.000 You gotta look at it from Google Earth and you can't see all that, like the swamp that he had to walk through just looked like a green patch in the woods.

01:57:45.000 And your phone, your GPS tracks your... Yeah, he's got an app on his phone and he had a GPS with him and he's got it all on there.

01:57:52.000 You can see the line and you can see where he deviated.

01:57:54.000 You have to walk.

01:57:55.000 Yeah, you have to walk.

01:57:56.000 No tools?

01:57:57.000 Well, you could use, like, he didn't bring his trekking poles, and that was a mistake he decided, but yeah.

01:58:02.000 Bring stilts to walk in the swamp?

01:58:04.000 Yeah, he started at, I think, 4.30 in the morning, because he had to walk through some residential areas, and he didn't want to be walking through people's yards in, like, full camo dress, you know, like, at 10 o'clock when everybody's getting into their cars.

01:58:16.000 But yeah, that's awesome.

01:58:17.000 Like, that's weird, and it's cool as hell.

01:58:20.000 It's fun.

01:58:22.000 All right.

01:58:23.000 James Garlic says, Tim, from your morning live show, I must say, of course a half Asian would do math during a bar fight. 1.00

01:58:30.000 LOL.

01:58:30.000 Love you, man.

01:58:31.000 The point I was making was that someone said something like, if you get punched in the face, you're not going to start negotiating.

01:58:38.000 I said, that's not true.

01:58:39.000 It just depends on the circumstances.

01:58:41.000 If someone punches you in the face and there's a clear and present danger to you and the people around you, that's not Yeah.

01:58:46.000 thing then you're going to defend yourself. But if somebody hits you, you're startled,

01:58:51.000 you move back, and there is no active fight, and they put their fist down, it's probably

01:58:55.000 appropriate to be like, we're ending this now before it gets out of control and I'm getting

01:58:59.000 out. And I said, some people have ego, and they're going to be like, you hit me, now it's on.

01:59:04.000 I'm like, dude, I'm just thinking, I got employees, I got a company, if somebody hit me...

01:59:08.000 You got a lot to lose.

01:59:09.000 Right. And then if I hit back, how much do I lose in a lawsuit versus how much do he lose?

01:59:13.000 Yeah, negotiating happens when it needs to happen.

01:59:15.000 Because what I said was, the fight you win is the fight you don't get into.

01:59:20.000 Absolutely.

01:59:20.000 But there's a lot of people with ego who think if someone threatens or challenges you, you gotta fight, and I'm like, those people are gonna lose a lot.

01:59:27.000 Or maybe they have nothing to begin with.

01:59:29.000 Alright, let's grab a couple more, a couple more Super Chats before we jump over to our members-only show.

01:59:34.000 Savannah says, So, Vayna, been watching your content for years and love Mr. Boca's Pumpkin Spice experience.

01:59:41.000 I posted a coffee jingle on YouTube inspired from an IRL super chat on 729.

01:59:45.000 Hope you like it.

01:59:46.000 Where can I link?

01:59:47.000 Love you guys and appreciate all you do.

01:59:49.000 Keep up the great work.

01:59:50.000 Tweet Ian.

01:59:52.000 Send a post to Ian on Axe and see if he'll see it.

01:59:58.000 There you go.

02:00:00.000 What can we do?

02:00:00.000 We can grab one more here.

02:00:02.000 Warpig says, down with candy bar tyranny.

02:00:05.000 I never said you couldn't have a candy bar.

02:00:07.000 I just think it's weird to cluster all of it into a bar.

02:00:11.000 I'm just saying, like, if I'm gonna have a piece of candy, it's like you go and you're like, okay, I'll get like a truffle, and you know, you get a couple of them maybe.

02:00:19.000 Somebody has to have a good YouTube documentary on, like, the history and the development of candy bars, right?

02:00:24.000 Because, like, I'm thinking peppermints were a candy, but also people felt like they had some kind of, like, anti-nausea medicinal purpose.

02:00:32.000 How did we get to where we are?

02:00:33.000 All of these things start as something else.

02:00:35.000 They were always just sweeties.

02:00:37.000 Right.

02:00:38.000 And so how did we get to this, like, chocolate-covered format for the candy bar?

02:00:41.000 No, there's king-sized ones.

02:00:42.000 Come on.

02:00:42.000 All right, everybody, if you haven't already, smash that like button.

02:00:45.000 One like equals one Not Our War.
