00:01:08.000 Hey everyone, welcome to Libcast.

00:01:11.000 Tonight I'm filling in for Tim Poole.

00:01:13.000 Really glad to be here.

00:01:14.000 We have a terrific show for you.

00:01:16.000 We have a great guest.

00:01:17.000 We have a terrific panel.

00:01:18.000 We are going to talk about how they got caught.

00:01:21.000 It's a big story.

00:01:22.000 Minnesota fraud shut down.

00:01:23.000 The DOJ charged 15 people in a $90 million scheme.

00:01:29.000 Todd Blanch was out there laying down the law.

00:01:31.000 It's all very exciting.

00:01:32.000 Guy even jumped off a balcony, so we'll get into that.

00:01:35.000 But tonight we have with us Terry Schilling.

00:01:37.000 Thanks so much, Libby.

00:01:39.000 I was very happy to see that you're in the host chair.

00:01:43.000 It's going to be a great show.

00:01:43.000 We just had number eight, by the way.

00:01:45.000 Last time I was on, we were waiting for little Charlie's arrival, but he's here, safe and sound.

00:01:50.000 Congratulations.

00:01:51.000 Seven older siblings, and everyone's doing great.

00:01:53.000 So I'm happy to be back.

00:01:55.000 So tell everyone where you are.

00:01:57.000 I work at American Principles Project.

00:01:58.000 We are the NRA for families.

00:02:01.000 We don't do guns, but we protect the American family in campaigns and elections, and we help pass laws to protect them.

00:02:06.000 Awesome.

00:02:07.000 Shane Cashman is here.

00:02:08.000 Congrats, man.

00:02:08.000 Good to be here.

00:02:09.000 Hey, thanks, Dave.

00:02:10.000 That's incredible.

00:02:11.000 I am a third generation space lawyer.

00:02:13.000 And protecting your rights right now.

00:02:14.000 There's a startup trying to create daylight anytime you want, even at night around the country.

00:02:20.000 We need to put an end to that, it's not good, especially if you're a vampire.

00:02:25.000 I saw they did a big light show in LA.

00:02:28.000 Yeah, we're going to put an end to this.

00:02:30.000 I'm with you, dude.

00:02:31.000 That is light pollution.

00:02:32.000 I'm also the host of Inverted World.

00:02:33.000 Thanks for having me.

00:02:34.000 What's up, Ian?

00:02:35.000 Very happy to be here with OctoDad, the man, the myth, the legend.

00:02:38.000 OctoDad, that's great.

00:02:39.000 Welcome with number eight, dude.

00:02:41.000 I'm so glad to hear it.

00:02:41.000 I had no idea.

00:02:42.000 It's been like four years since I've seen you.

00:02:44.000 I know.

00:02:44.000 It feels like it.

00:02:45.000 So you're in the house.

00:02:45.000 Ages.

00:02:47.000 I'm happy to be here.

00:02:48.000 Ian Crossland back at it again, and we got the wonderful Carter Banks here.

00:02:51.000 What's up, everyone?

00:02:52.000 I'm Carter Banks, and yeah, I'm pumped to be producing the show today.

00:02:58.000 Before we get into it, I do have a little word from our sponsors, and that is there's a new global sport competition happening in Las Vegas on May 24th this Sunday, and it's unlike anything you've ever seen before.

00:03:16.000 Go to enhanced.comslash games.

00:03:19.000 The enhanced games bring together elite athletes from around the world competing at absolute limits of human performance.

00:03:26.000 No hiding, no pretending, complete transparency and what athletes are putting in their bodies.

00:03:36.000 And you can watch the entire event live on Rumble.

00:03:38.000 The results speak for themselves.

00:03:40.000 Elite weightlifters typically improve strength around 1.5% annually, yet enhanced weightlifting cohorts saw strength increases ranging from 8% to 33% in a single camp cycle.

00:03:52.000 A two to seven time multiplier on expected gains.

00:03:55.000 These are not generic supplements.

00:03:57.000 They are performance protocols matched to biology data and refined over time.

00:04:02.000 Every ingredient published, every dose explained.

00:04:05.000 Go to enhanced.comslash games and make sure to watch the event this weekend live on Rumble.

00:04:13.000 I like it.

00:04:15.000 It's a pretty cool thing.

00:04:16.000 Get enhanced.

00:04:17.000 So let's get into it.

00:04:17.000 Yeah.

00:04:20.000 Carter, can you pull up that first story?

00:04:21.000 Yes, I have got it.

00:04:24.000 And we will talk about it.

00:04:25.000 This is from the post millennial Department of Justice charges 15 defendants in a $90 million Minnesota Medicaid fraud takedown.

00:04:35.000 This is from Katie Daves Court, one of my favorites.

00:04:38.000 The United States Department of Justice announced criminal charges against 15 individuals on Thursday as part of a major crackdown on fraud in Minnesota, resulting in $90 million in losses.

00:04:49.000 The defendants, owners of child care centers, and various Medicaid providers.

00:04:53.000 Allegedly stole from the country's most vulnerable, including autistic children, the disabled, and the homeless, according to the DOJ.

00:05:01.000 Minnesota will no longer serve as a safe haven for fraud, nor will any state in this country, said acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanch, asserting that the DOJ will hunt down fraudsters wherever they are and systematically dismantle their predatory schemes.

00:05:17.000 There are seven state managed Medicaid programs that were systemically pilfered by fraudsters who treated taxpayer funds as their personal piggy bank, according to Colin McDonald, Assistant Attorney General for the DOJ's National Fraud Enforcement Division.

00:05:32.000 Who announced the indictments?

00:05:34.000 One of the most notable instances is Minnesota's Housing Stabilization Services Program, which was created to assist homeless and disabled people in finding and maintaining housing.

00:05:45.000 Initially projected in 2020 to cost roughly $2.6 million, the program's annual cost skyrocketed to over $104 million by 2024, blamed on fraud.

00:05:57.000 And we even had an incident.

00:06:00.000 Do we have that other one?

00:06:02.000 Yes.

00:06:02.000 The guy.

00:06:03.000 Well, we can talk about that.

00:06:05.000 Do we have the guy, though?

00:06:06.000 The guy who jumped off a balcony?

00:06:08.000 I saw that and I wasn't sure.

00:06:09.000 Yeah, we have that around somewhere.

00:06:10.000 Yeah, we have that around somewhere.

00:06:11.000 But, guys, why do we have all of this fraud happening in Minnesota?

00:06:15.000 What is up with this?

00:06:16.000 I don't.

00:06:17.000 That's what I was going to ask.

00:06:18.000 I don't understand why Minnesota.

00:06:20.000 Do you guys have any beat on that?

00:06:22.000 I don't know.

00:06:23.000 I think we just need to build a wall around that state.

00:06:25.000 Just build a wall around Minnesota.

00:06:26.000 And, like, they're saying this is the biggest autism fraud scheme.

00:06:29.000 Well, there have been a number of fraud schemes over the past few years.

00:06:32.000 This all started with an indictment against a not for profit called Feeding Our Future, which was run by Simon.

00:06:40.000 Somali immigrants and descendants, as well as a woman named Amy Brock, who I think today was sentenced to 42 years in prison for her wrangling of this scheme.

00:06:50.000 And they took a bunch of money from the state of Minnesota that was part of the federal COVID relief and said that they were going to be using it to feed hungry children.

00:06:59.000 And instead, they pocketed the money, they bought expensive cars, they lived a nice lifestyle.

00:07:04.000 And then, according to later reporting from Christopher Rufo, you even had people who were taking money from the state.

00:07:11.000 Fraudulently, and then sending it back to Somalia where it funded terrorist organizations.

00:07:18.000 So, we have a situation where it's not just immigrants in Somalia, it's in Minnesota, it's descendants of immigrants, and it's also Americans who are getting involved in these fraud schemes.

00:07:31.000 And we saw also like all of this stuff about how part of the issue was that the people who were doing the oversight in Minnesota were afraid to be called racist if they looked into it too deeply.

00:07:45.000 So, I mean, we have a number of factors here, you know?

00:07:48.000 The fear of being called a racist has obviously got to be a factor.

00:07:51.000 But I think that this is happening, I think it appears primarily in blue states where they turn a blind eye to this.

00:08:00.000 And I think it's related to the tribe theory.

00:08:03.000 You're either in my tribe or you're not.

00:08:07.000 This is all great.

00:08:08.000 I love that they're arresting these people and getting some serious justice, but it's never going to stop until people like Tim Walz.

00:08:15.000 Feel the pain.

00:08:16.000 You have to go after the people that are in charge, not the people that are the underlings that are just doing it.

00:08:21.000 They had bosses and people that were in charge of oversight there.

00:08:26.000 And until the people that are in charge of the oversight are held accountable for their gross negligence and their dereliction of duty, you're going to keep having this.

00:08:35.000 The bosses have to start getting in trouble.

00:08:37.000 The people in charge have to start getting in trouble.

00:08:39.000 You're always going to have underlings and goons trying to steal and commit crimes, but it's when the people at the top, the people that have the authority, Don't enforce it or turn blind eyes and allow it to grow to the.

00:08:51.000 This is a level we've never seen before in the United States. 0.99

00:08:54.000 And I don't know if it's just reached critical mass where we reached it or if this just exploded at the arrival of all of the Somali immigrants. 0.99

00:09:02.000 I don't know. 0.82

00:09:03.000 I was just going to say Minnesota has been in the news a lot in the past year.

00:09:06.000 I mean, six years really.

00:09:08.000 George Floyd happened there.

00:09:09.000 Of course, yeah.

00:09:10.000 That church shooting that happened last summer, I think it was.

00:09:13.000 The Annunciation.

00:09:14.000 And the political assassinations that happened there.

00:09:17.000 Vance or Bolter, whatever his name was.

00:09:19.000 It's just weird.

00:09:20.000 You know, sometimes when I think, when I read these stories out of Haiti, it makes me think of, like, out of Minnesota, it makes me think of Haiti.

00:09:26.000 Because, interesting.

00:09:27.000 Yeah, you like that?

00:09:28.000 Well, that's how it is. 0.75

00:09:29.000 But because Haiti is like a petri dish for the government to test on people.

00:09:34.000 Woodrow Wilson started it, the Clintons did it and destroyed Haiti.

00:09:38.000 And sometimes I'm like, we have these states where fraud is happening and all this weird political violence.

00:09:42.000 And I'm like, I think there's a broader thing happening behind the scenes here where they allow this stuff and people enriching themselves while funding destruction and death.

00:09:53.000 I think they probably like allow it, and then the next level manager allows it, allows it.

00:09:57.000 Lies about it, and then the next guy doesn't know what's happening.

00:10:00.000 I would imagine, up the scale, it's generally how it's a border state.

00:10:03.000 So it's basically like, I don't know if they're sneaking across, if they can escape.

00:10:07.000 Like, did the guy jump off the balcony and run to Canada?

00:10:09.000 I don't know if he tried to get.

00:10:10.000 Actually, I do have that story for you.

00:10:11.000 Yeah, we can.

00:10:12.000 Do you want to take a look at that?

00:10:13.000 I think we have.

00:10:16.000 Yeah, so this man jumped from a fourth floor balcony to flee detention and was then captured.

00:10:23.000 But this is what Kash Patel said after today's intra agency press conference announcing 15 public health care fraud indictments.

00:10:30.000 The below suspect who was on the run, Muhammad Omar, has now been arrested.

00:10:34.000 So he apparently jumped off this balcony.

00:10:37.000 It's a lot of floors to jump.

00:10:39.000 It's a lot of floors to jump.

00:10:41.000 I thought I saw a.

00:10:42.000 Did he at least hang down and like jump?

00:10:44.000 I mean, even if you did.

00:10:45.000 That's like gets you a story.

00:10:47.000 I used to do that on my second floor of my parents' house.

00:10:49.000 I'd hang out the window and then drop.

00:10:50.000 You only drop one story at that point.

00:10:52.000 Yeah, six, eight feet.

00:10:54.000 Yeah, I never jumped out a window.

00:10:56.000 I've climbed in windows.

00:10:58.000 I've climbed up three floors.

00:11:00.000 Yeah, but I've never.

00:11:01.000 Like Spider Man?

00:11:02.000 Yeah.

00:11:03.000 It was a weird night.

00:11:04.000 Do you ever like lock yourself out and then you have to?

00:11:07.000 Yeah, I like the one window that's open.

00:11:09.000 I also lost my phone and found it the next day by retracing the steps.

00:11:13.000 Oh, well, very good.

00:11:14.000 Yeah.

00:11:15.000 So, one of the things about this Minnesota fraud, like you were saying about Tim Waltz needing to be held accountable or the people just not knowing what's going on, I wonder what holding Tim Waltz accountable looks like, especially when we have a Democrat party that is so insistent on making Tim Waltz and people like him.

00:11:34.000 The face of their movement.

00:11:35.000 We recently had Barack Obama talking about how Mamdani is the face of the Democratic Party going forward.

00:11:40.000 And it's not just, I fear it's not just Minnesota. 0.82

00:11:43.000 You know, JD Vance is out there trying to uncover the fraud in other places.

00:11:49.000 But I know Ari Hoffman with the Postmillennial has been tracking this down in Washington state.

00:11:54.000 And it's more daycare fraud.

00:11:56.000 There's like a lot of this daycare fraud.

00:11:58.000 Why do you think, like, why is it so?

00:12:01.000 Is that an industry?

00:12:02.000 These social services industries seem really ripe for fraud.

00:12:07.000 Look, I don't think it's rocket science.

00:12:09.000 I mean, they're going to the programs that are most defensible, right?

00:12:14.000 That are most sacred.

00:12:16.000 And that's where the fraud is, which makes sense because anyone that scrutinizes those programs or points out the fraud, you then get to accuse your opponents who are trying to cut back on your fraud of taking money away from working families and struggling families.

00:12:30.000 And it's a tearjerker, it's a heartstring puller.

00:12:34.000 That's what it is.

00:12:34.000 And so I think that these programs that are ultra sacred, you know, Social Security, I bet there's obviously a lot of Fraud there.

00:12:41.000 Anything where the money is going to actual vulnerable people, as the main thrust of the program, those are going to be ripe with fraud.

00:12:49.000 They're going to be very likely to have huge amounts of fraud just because they're sacred and no one wants to touch them.

00:12:56.000 That's a good point.

00:12:57.000 It's a good cover.

00:12:58.000 And we're seeing hundreds of fraudulent hospices also going under in California.

00:13:04.000 So it's kind of the same thing.

00:13:05.000 It's like the sacred, very, you know, thing you want to help these people who are dying and die, you know, as easily and pain free as possible.

00:13:11.000 But then it's like hundreds of fraudulent ones throughout California.

00:13:14.000 Did Nick Shirley, is he the guy that ripped the top off of this whole fraud conversation?

00:13:19.000 It had been bubbling up for a while.

00:13:20.000 I mean, there had been extensive reporting on it, but his videos, Going viral really made the exposure that much more national.

00:13:29.000 Had there been exposure on this stuff before they knocked down USAID?

00:13:33.000 Yeah.

00:13:34.000 Well, that's the thing.

00:13:35.000 This feeding our future thing has been going on for years, and there were indictments going on for years.

00:13:41.000 We were reporting on it at Post Millennial.

00:13:43.000 Other people were reporting on it.

00:13:44.000 I remember distinctly Charlie Kirk talking about it because it was really so egregious, but it wasn't making the kinds of national headlines that it did once I think it sort of got.

00:13:55.000 Learning center.

00:13:56.000 Yeah.

00:13:57.000 Learning center and all of that.

00:13:58.000 And once those videos went out, I think that did really make a difference.

00:14:02.000 It shows you how important independent media is.

00:14:05.000 Oh my gosh.

00:14:06.000 It's so powerful.

00:14:08.000 Dude, some random guy get an internet video camera and show 100 million people something tonight.

00:14:13.000 It's so powerful.

00:14:15.000 Yeah.

00:14:16.000 Mind twistingly powerful, this technology.

00:14:19.000 I wonder if USAID was covering for this stuff or opting to stifle or not run these stories on purpose.

00:14:25.000 Not USAID specifically, but that whole like deep net.

00:14:30.000 Web that was kind of dark money getting pushed around through NGOs and stuff.

00:14:33.000 I wonder if they were participating in covering this kind of thing up or if it's just more emergent.

00:14:38.000 Well, Libby, you said earlier that you thought people were afraid of calling this out out of fear of racism.

00:14:46.000 The class in America that is most worried about claims of racism is journalists, right?

00:14:53.000 Right, that's interesting.

00:14:54.000 The mainstream journalist, this story should be on the front page of every major news station, newspaper, and every news station.

00:15:02.000 But it's getting ignored.

00:15:04.000 There's this new dynamic where the legacy media outlets and the newspapers we have really don't cover the things that need to get covered.

00:15:12.000 I mean, maybe that's just how it's always been.

00:15:14.000 And that's how we got here.

00:15:16.000 But they ignore this stuff.

00:15:17.000 If it hurts their tribe, if it hurts their team, they don't cover it because they don't.

00:15:22.000 I do think that they actually believe that Trump and the Republicans are Hitler.

00:15:26.000 It's very low IQ, but I think they do believe that.

00:15:31.000 And they're scared to death.

00:15:33.000 And they keep saying it.

00:15:34.000 Even after everything that's gone on, they keep saying Trump is Hitler.

00:15:38.000 We recently saw, what was it, Justin Pearson in Tennessee?

00:15:42.000 He is, I think, a state level legislator.

00:15:45.000 He's running for Congress, I think.

00:15:48.000 And he was calling Trump all kinds of things, you know, calling it like, I think it was like white supremacist and all of this, saying that the Supreme Court decision in Louisiana v. Calais saying that race based redistricting is patently unconstitutional.

00:16:03.000 They're calling that decision racist.

00:16:05.000 And now that we have all of these.

00:16:08.000 Changes in the maps all over the South.

00:16:11.000 It's been kind of crazy to see how that's all worked out when you had like Hakeem Jeffries yesterday and everybody saying that they should, you had the NAACP and Democrats, including Hakeem Jeffries, come out and say that black students should boycott Southern schools.

00:16:27.000 They're calling for segregation because now they're saying segregation is how you fight racism instead of segregation being just racist.

00:16:36.000 And that's not new to them because the universities have been trying that for a decade now.

00:16:40.000 They've been working on it.

00:16:40.000 Like in New York.

00:16:42.000 How many colleges are like, we just need segregated dorms and all this stuff?

00:16:44.000 I'm like, wait, I thought you were the anti segregation people.

00:16:47.000 And they have the segregated graduations as well.

00:16:49.000 Which I think is so wild.

00:16:52.000 And we saw recently, I think there was a segregated graduation at Columbia.

00:16:56.000 There's ones at Harvard.

00:16:57.000 And you have all these schools being brought up by Harmite Dillon, who is such a superhero rock star, who's saying, you know, hey, med schools, you can't decide to discriminate against white students and Asian students who have better test scores than minority students who you're bumping up to the top.

00:17:15.000 And every time you hear about problems in American healthcare, I start to think, well, We've got this massive fraud that's fleecing everybody, that's taking all the money out of the system.

00:17:25.000 And then we've got a situation where we're not promoting the people who are likely to be the best doctors because we care more about these other things.

00:17:33.000 Maybe you're for if they go back to only letting students at Harvard in who have the highest test scores, they're going to have to get rid of their entire remedial courses.

00:17:46.000 I mean, do you know how many people will lose their jobs and livelihood?

00:17:48.000 You need to start thinking about these people, they need jobs too.

00:17:52.000 If you're a remedial professor at Harvard, you have every right to be there too.

00:17:57.000 Not to mention the DEI programs.

00:17:59.000 You know, we need the DEI programs.

00:18:01.000 Robots are going to take those jobs here anyway, though. 0.96

00:18:03.000 Also, the HR.

00:18:04.000 Don't you think we're going to have like robot HR?

00:18:06.000 Oh, yeah.

00:18:07.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:18:07.000 Those were a conversation recently.

00:18:09.000 I forget which AI CEO was saying this, but he was like, managerial class will be gone.

00:18:13.000 Another AI CEO is like, the white collar jobs will be gone.

00:18:15.000 Another one was saying the middle class jobs will be gone. 1.00

00:18:18.000 It's good stuff. 1.00

00:18:18.000 So it's good. 1.00

00:18:19.000 Just get rid of all the jobs.

00:18:20.000 Yeah. 0.69

00:18:21.000 That's what they want. 1.00

00:18:22.000 Just get rid of all the jobs.

00:18:23.000 It'll be a paradise.

00:18:24.000 Right.

00:18:25.000 For who?

00:18:26.000 Not us.

00:18:27.000 I do think that moving away from the jobs based economy might be a good step forward, although it could be painful in the intern room because, like, the Federal Reserve's job system, I don't know if it's just the Federal Reserve system, but they'll say, like, you dig a hole and then you fill up the hole and we're going to pay you both with our funny money and then you have to pay us back at interest.

00:18:47.000 So they loan the money to the government.

00:18:48.000 The government has to pay them back with interest.

00:18:50.000 So the bankers make the money.

00:18:52.000 They keep us as debt slaves. 0.93

00:18:53.000 And then we're paid for, like, useless jobs. 1.00

00:18:56.000 There's a lot of, like, Crap, crap, just to keep people busy so they don't revolt. 0.99

00:19:01.000 Not saying they take away all the jobs at once is a good idea. 0.99

00:19:01.000 Yeah. 0.99

00:19:03.000 I don't want to take away purpose from people, too.

00:19:05.000 You know, that's what is going to happen if they take all the jobs away.

00:19:08.000 It's true because digging the hole has purpose.

00:19:10.000 And like, purpose.

00:19:11.000 All jobs are important.

00:19:12.000 I mean, you could argue some jobs aren't as important, but I think there's a lot of jobs a lot of people won't take that are really important.

00:19:17.000 I think their argument is that if they take away jobs that'll give people time to do things that are their purpose, but I don't think it works.

00:19:24.000 But that sounds like communism.

00:19:26.000 Like, that's the paradise of a false utopia.

00:19:28.000 I don't know how you find your purpose without putting yourself to a useful application.

00:19:32.000 Yeah.

00:19:32.000 Mm hmm.

00:19:33.000 You know, that's the thing that I worry about.

00:19:34.000 It's like when you're a kid, you have stuff that you're supposed to do.

00:19:38.000 I remember distinctly, like, my parents made me do, you know, chores, which at the time I thought, like, oh, I'm being, you know, tortured.

00:19:46.000 But I'm sure looking back, it was totally fine.

00:19:48.000 But they, I always would have to, like, rake the yard.

00:19:51.000 And we had this, like, corner house, and you have to rake the yard.

00:19:54.000 And it took a long time.

00:19:55.000 And I would stand out there raking the yard, like, composing poems and vignettes in my head.

00:20:02.000 And then I would memorize them, and then I would know them.

00:20:05.000 So, if I hadn't had to rake the yard, I never would have spent the time to compose poems and put them to memory.

00:20:12.000 I just would have watched more Cosby show.

00:20:14.000 It was a good show.

00:20:16.000 Which was good.

00:20:16.000 I had a similar experience with weighted tables at Dusty's in LA on 3200 West Sunset.

00:20:20.000 It's not there anymore, but a great area.

00:20:23.000 And I would just hate it.

00:20:24.000 I'd be there at 7 30 in the morning.

00:20:25.000 I hate this job getting the pepper and the salt on the table, getting the napkins folded.

00:20:30.000 And all I want to do is go make videos on YouTube and just make YouTube videos.

00:20:33.000 And I would just hate all day, but I'd make the best of it.

00:20:35.000 I'd get stoned out back.

00:20:37.000 And then I would come home like a fireball and make videos.

00:20:39.000 And I think if I didn't have that job to like yearn for something greater, right, that I would never have done the greater thing.

00:20:47.000 I mean, maybe I could have pulled it off.

00:20:48.000 I can totally relate to what you're saying, Libby, though, because I had a job where I was standing at the podium at Cinemark just taking ticket stubs for six hours.

00:20:57.000 And there were times where I was just standing there writing songs in my head.

00:21:02.000 I think what we have to show here is that you guys had cool jobs.

00:21:05.000 Maybe.

00:21:06.000 Sometimes.

00:21:07.000 I think these are cool jobs.

00:21:08.000 Those muck and horse stalls.

00:21:10.000 Our medical field is already a mess, and the fraud doesn't help.

00:21:13.000 And then thinking about Harvard and people who want to become doctors, it's hard to find a good doctor.

00:21:18.000 COVID, you know, everything's been, the good doctors are disincentivized.

00:21:23.000 You know, most, I go to a doctor and I was looking at a computer the whole time.

00:21:25.000 We just talked about that last night, so hardcore since the insurance agencies, basically in the 90s, I think they started billing dogs.

00:21:32.000 They're like, hey, doctors, we're going to give you all of our patients.

00:21:35.000 You don't have to like publicize your doctor office anymore.

00:21:39.000 And so, but the thing is, you're going to have a lot more patients.

00:21:42.000 Doctors like, all right, so we don't have to promote or look for people, but we have to see 10 times more people.

00:21:47.000 We see four people an hour now.

00:21:49.000 You might get paid for giving this pill out.

00:21:51.000 Yeah, like that.

00:21:51.000 It's like milk.

00:21:52.000 Let's jump to this next story.

00:21:54.000 Trump urges the Supreme Court to do what's right and uphold his executive order ending birthright citizenship.

00:22:00.000 I'm really interested to know what you guys think the court will do.

00:22:04.000 Trump said it would be a disgrace if the Supreme Court rules against his order ending birthright citizenship.

00:22:10.000 He told reporters that birthright citizenship was not meant for Chinese billionaires who have their children become citizens of our country.

00:22:16.000 This was meant for the babies of slaves. 0.75

00:22:18.000 This was signed right after the Civil War.

00:22:20.000 You look at the dates, the dates alone, immediately after.

00:22:23.000 This was having to do with the babies of slaves, and people have used it.

00:22:26.000 And if this is allowed to stand, it will be a disaster economically for our country. 0.85

00:22:30.000 And you'll have 25 people of the people coming into our country coming in through birthright citizenship, and we won't have any control. 1.00

00:22:38.000 We can take a little look at this clip.

00:22:41.000 Now we have another one coming up, which is birthright citizenship.

00:22:45.000 And we're the only country in the world that has it.

00:22:48.000 You step into our country, and you're all of a sudden a citizen.

00:22:51.000 You come in a certain way. 1.00

00:22:52.000 This was not meant for Chinese billionaires. 0.73

00:22:56.000 To have their children become citizens of our country. 0.96

00:23:00.000 This was meant, or other rich people, poor people. 0.97

00:23:04.000 This was meant for the babies of slaves.

00:23:08.000 This was signed during, right after the Civil War.

00:23:11.000 You look at the dates, the dates alone, immediately after.

00:23:14.000 This was having to do with the babies of slaves.

00:23:19.000 And people have used it.

00:23:20.000 And if this is allowed to stand, it will be a disaster economically for our country. 1.00

00:23:26.000 And you'll have 25% of the people coming into our country. 1.00

00:23:30.000 Coming in through birthright citizenship, and we won't have any control. 0.98

00:23:35.000 This decision by the Supreme Court is a very big one.

00:23:39.000 They'll probably rule against me because they seem to like doing that.

00:23:43.000 You know, frankly, I'm not happy with some of the decisions.

00:23:48.000 Look at NIL.

00:23:50.000 So, what do you guys think?

00:23:51.000 I just want to point something out.

00:23:52.000 I don't know if you guys have noticed this.

00:23:55.000 Me and Beth Baish, who does social media at the Postmillennial, we were looking at these clips today, and we could not get over this man's.

00:24:01.000 Audi belly button in the background.

00:24:03.000 Yeah.

00:24:04.000 It is distracting.

00:24:06.000 What's going on with this?

00:24:07.000 It was very distracting.

00:24:07.000 Dang.

00:24:08.000 This is a situation where I think, you know, like you wear a blazer.

00:24:08.000 Who asked?

00:24:13.000 This is why you get a blazer.

00:24:13.000 Bro.

00:24:15.000 Yeah.

00:24:16.000 You know, even a button down with an accent. 0.99

00:24:18.000 He shouldn't have been allowed in there.

00:24:19.000 He shouldn't have.

00:24:20.000 Listen, be allowed in there. 0.96

00:24:22.000 I'm going to fat shame you. 0.84

00:24:23.000 No. 0.97

00:24:24.000 I don't.

00:24:24.000 It's really the Audi shaming.

00:24:26.000 I have no problem with.

00:24:27.000 Well, first of all, this is.

00:24:28.000 It's just a little mess.

00:24:29.000 We know this guy.

00:24:30.000 We all know this guy.

00:24:31.000 He's at our local VFW every Friday.

00:24:35.000 And he had just finished up 18 holes earlier in the day.

00:24:38.000 Totally fine.

00:24:40.000 He just found himself at the White House today.

00:24:41.000 That's what happened.

00:24:42.000 I'm just saying throw a blazer in the car.

00:24:43.000 You just keep it there.

00:24:45.000 I think Trump's belly button protruding.

00:24:47.000 My policy is you go to the White House.

00:24:49.000 I just found it so distracting because he's in the belly is in every clip.

00:24:53.000 If his face was there, you'd focus on the face.

00:24:55.000 There's a video circulating that's AI, I think, of Trump kissing that man.

00:25:01.000 I think it's AI, but you can't tell these days.

00:25:02.000 I don't know.

00:25:03.000 It might be real.

00:25:04.000 It might be real, yeah.

00:25:05.000 I didn't watch the full thing.

00:25:06.000 I'm going to make babies, real American babies. 0.61

00:25:09.000 I think so.

00:25:10.000 But what do you guys think?

00:25:11.000 The Supreme Court is going to rule against Trump?

00:25:13.000 Yeah, he's probably right.

00:25:13.000 I don't know, actually.

00:25:14.000 I mean, I don't know if executive order is the way to get this done.

00:25:18.000 So, maybe they'll rule against it just because it's an executive order.

00:25:21.000 It's like on procedure.

00:25:22.000 Yeah.

00:25:22.000 But he's hitting the talking points that are correct.

00:25:24.000 Like, it was before airplanes existed. 0.98

00:25:26.000 You couldn't just take some random Indian guy that spoke no English, fly into the United States without even like a visa, and then just have a kid.

00:25:35.000 And then that kid's an American.

00:25:37.000 What the? 0.99

00:25:38.000 Like, that makes no sense.

00:25:39.000 And it was also before welfare.

00:25:41.000 It was before the welfare state, before we started giving out money to anyone and everyone that has a kid, and even more if you don't have a husband or a father involved.

00:25:51.000 There's a lot of perverse incentives now that he's exactly right.

00:25:55.000 This would destroy the country if we don't get rid of it.

00:25:58.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:25:59.000 And we also have the situation this is something Tim talks about all the time where there's like 1.15 million American citizen babies being raised in China to Chinese parents who had their children in like the Northern Mariana Islands or wherever else in America and then got the American passport and took the kids back home.

00:26:19.000 And now they're raising American citizens who will be eligible to run for president.

00:26:23.000 At a certain point.

00:26:24.000 And after I had this recent conversation with Chloe Chung, who is a Chinese dissident, she was part of the Hong Kong umbrella revolution and then she left with her family.

00:26:37.000 She was a young lady, she was just in high school and she left and went to the UK.

00:26:40.000 And now there's a million dollar bounty on her head from the CCP.

00:26:44.000 And she's just this nice kid, you know, who was trying to do what was right for Hong Kong.

00:26:51.000 But she was saying that if you're a student in China, then you want to study in the US.

00:26:57.000 You essentially have to go through the ranks and get approval from the CCP.

00:27:01.000 So, to a certain extent, any of these American citizens being raised in China will have the thumbprint of the CCP on them when they eventually come here.

00:27:11.000 Why do you think we have all these spies?

00:27:12.000 Yeah.

00:27:13.000 Ang Fang, the one who's a mayor in California.

00:27:15.000 We only got nine years, by the way. 1.00

00:27:17.000 She only got nine years for being a Chinese asset and running the town of Arcadia, California. 0.95

00:27:22.000 And on top of that, we have all these secret Chinese police stations around the country they keep finding.

00:27:26.000 You see the one that happened in the Bronx, they uncovered like a week ago.

00:27:29.000 There was one in Colorado, there was one in California.

00:27:32.000 And also, secret Chinese bio labs that they keep breaking into.

00:27:36.000 What's that? 0.90

00:27:37.000 They've got like bio labs where they're working on viruses they shouldn't have.

00:27:37.000 What do you mean secret?

00:27:41.000 I think two in California, I think, this year.

00:27:44.000 Not just in Wuhan.

00:27:45.000 Not just in Wuhan, yeah.

00:27:46.000 Wuhan satellites.

00:27:48.000 I think Trump just said he wanted China to buy more farmland in the U.S.

00:27:52.000 Yeah, it's also not good.

00:27:53.000 Open that up.

00:27:53.000 Wait, that's not good.

00:27:54.000 That seemed crazy.

00:27:55.000 That seems like a really bad idea.

00:27:57.000 It's a really bad idea.

00:27:58.000 That was a strange thing for it.

00:27:59.000 I'm pretty sure that's the witty who's saying.

00:28:01.000 I'm not sure of the details, but there was something being said about him bringing. 0.56

00:28:05.000 Chinese people bring more business to the farms, and I'm like, what farms do we have left?

00:28:10.000 Yeah, what is it? 1.00

00:28:11.000 Shouldn't they be American?

00:28:12.000 I mean, our food supply should be entirely American handled, I feel like. 0.97

00:28:17.000 Can I share a thought I've had about this immigration crisis that made me think broader about America and our society? 0.83

00:28:24.000 I think we make this mistake, and I know this familiar, I'm very familiar with it because I'm in the culture war primarily, but we make this mistake of separating the economy and the culture when the reality is, I think. 0.51

00:28:36.000 That your culture really has a huge impact on the direction of your economy.

00:28:40.000 They both feed off of each other.

00:28:41.000 You know, you can make the two wings of the same bird analogy. 0.66

00:28:46.000 But there was this video early on in this Trump administration last year where there was a video that was released where ICE was cracking down on one of these big farms in California and these illegal immigrants are fleeing.

00:28:59.000 And you find out it's a pot farm.

00:29:02.000 It's we. 1.00

00:29:03.000 We're importing illegal immigrants not to pick our strawberries and our potatoes and lower the price of our food. 1.00

00:29:12.000 No, they're picking our pot plants, they're helping us get high. 1.00

00:29:15.000 When you make these types, I don't think people, when they go to legalize something like marijuana, they don't think about how we're now going to be using human manpower to make drugs.

00:29:27.000 That's a whole diversion where you could have those people using their skills and talents and labor to do other things that are more useful and beneficial to society.

00:29:36.000 And I don't know.

00:29:37.000 I just, I've had that thought.

00:29:38.000 I want to share.

00:29:39.000 I thought Tim Cass, deep, deep thinkers on this show.

00:29:42.000 And I just wanted to, I don't know.

00:29:43.000 Ian, what's your reaction to that? 1.00

00:29:45.000 To bringing in illegal immigrants to do nefarious things. 1.00

00:29:48.000 Well, to work on pot farms. 1.00

00:29:50.000 Well, pot farms, I've never been to a pot farm.

00:29:54.000 I hear it's like the most surprising thing I've ever heard you say.

00:29:56.000 Yeah, I know.

00:29:57.000 I think I'd own one at this point.

00:29:59.000 You look like you own one.

00:30:00.000 I'm about to buy one. 0.98

00:30:02.000 It's dirty, man. 1.00

00:30:03.000 It's like slave labor because they'll bring people in.

00:30:05.000 The people then can't complain if they're being abused by their employer because they have no paperwork.

00:30:11.000 And so you do get a lot of like bad, poorly treated people out of it too, which is another kind of almost arguably a human rights, potential human rights violation.

00:30:19.000 It's like if you can't guarantee human rights, you're essentially betraying them.

00:30:23.000 You have to guarantee their human rights.

00:30:25.000 Um, it's that's a messy story.

00:30:27.000 Weren't there kids working there too?

00:30:28.000 There's kids, yeah.

00:30:29.000 That was also crazy, not good.

00:30:31.000 Children that can't say anything because they'll get a lot of them were coming.

00:30:34.000 How many children were lost over the southern border?

00:30:37.000 They were saying 300,000 children went missing over that border.

00:30:39.000 By probably, I think that's probably a conservative number, yeah.

00:30:42.000 Those are just the people that are known about, right?

00:30:44.000 Those aren't like the gotaways, right?

00:30:44.000 Right?

00:30:47.000 You know, for example, they used to come in with families, and then all of a sudden, I think it was four years ago, they started just seeing kids dumped at the border with that.

00:30:54.000 I mean, Jorge Ventura come.

00:30:56.000 He came on the show a couple years ago with bracelets that they would find these kids with bracelets on.

00:30:56.000 Comes on the show.

00:31:00.000 Andrejas means delivered.

00:31:02.000 And that's essentially they got the cargo, the meat to the butcher, wherever the kid's going.

00:31:08.000 I don't know.

00:31:09.000 I mean, if you haven't seen Sin Frontera that 6'7 Kevin made, all the worst parts of what's actually going on there. 0.63

00:31:16.000 Well, the Biden administration, when they first came into office, changed the rules about immigration and said that if you are an unaccompanied minor and you show up at the border, you are automatically given.

00:31:28.000 Entry into the United States.

00:31:30.000 And then you have, and additionally, you have what's called the Flores settlement, which has been in and out of courts since I think the late 80s or maybe 92.

00:31:39.000 But it's a ruling that says children cannot be held in detention for more than a certain period of time.

00:31:46.000 I think it's 20 days.

00:31:48.000 And as that ruling has shifted over the years, and it's always the same judge who's been ruling on that case, I think it's, I don't remember her name exactly, but she's in Southern California.

00:31:57.000 And as that ruling has gone in and out of courts, she eventually said, well, If you can't hold children in detention for more than 20 days, then if those children are accompanied by a grown up, then you can't hold their grown up in detention for more than 20 days either.

00:32:14.000 So eventually it became a situation where if you come across the border with a kid, it's a free entry.

00:32:20.000 And if a kid just goes across by themselves, they don't have any trouble getting in.

00:32:24.000 So, under the guise of humanitarian aid and compassion, we have done so many things that have hurt so many more people, like you're talking about with the bracelets.

00:32:34.000 Because you have the coyotes just tagging people, little kids, sending them across the border.

00:32:39.000 Over the Biden years, we saw people just dropping toddlers across that border wall, you know?

00:32:45.000 And so, this is what we're doing.

00:32:46.000 And I think it's interesting what you were talking about in terms of culture, because by allowing so many people into the country who have no connection to our founding, who have no belief in one of the things I think that is essential about the United States and about United States American culture is that we identify as the greatest ever and the most powerful.

00:33:12.000 And whether we are the greatest ever or the most powerful, I think we are, but that's part of my.

00:33:18.000 Belief, whether we are or not, is sort of irrelevant.

00:33:21.000 That's what we believe.

00:33:22.000 And it's part of the zeitgeist of our country.

00:33:25.000 It's part of who we are.

00:33:26.000 When we wander around the world in our white sneakers and we talk English loud, like that's part of who we are.

00:33:33.000 And something I love about us is we're just like, what?

00:33:36.000 We're the greatest.

00:33:36.000 You could be the greatest too.

00:33:37.000 Like, we're all, you know, let's do it.

00:33:39.000 But we, you know, yeah, we like undermine our culture when we have people come in who are here for the benefits or here to take advantage of things.

00:33:47.000 What were you going to say?

00:33:49.000 At the heart, at the root of believing that this is the greatest country ever, and this was reinforced by my great grandparents and my grandparents and my parents, it's gratitude, right?

00:34:00.000 They told me, my grandparents and parents told me, This is the greatest country in the world.

00:34:05.000 So many, your great grandfather was in World War II.

00:34:08.000 He sacrificed for our country, he fought for our country.

00:34:11.000 You need to do your job.

00:34:12.000 You have a duty.

00:34:13.000 You have to show that you're grateful.

00:34:15.000 It was, say, yes, Americans do believe, and it is true that we are the greatest nation in the world.

00:34:21.000 But that's not braggadocious.

00:34:24.000 It is more of a call to arms and a call to duty and ultimately gratitude.

00:34:29.000 And that's the big difference with the people that we're importing here.

00:34:32.000 Ilhan Omar, right? 0.99

00:34:33.000 We saved her from one of the worst nations of all time, where it has the highest levels of rape and murder, arson, corruption.

00:34:42.000 It's like you've done corruption.

00:34:43.000 It's terrible. 0.97

00:34:44.000 And she has the gall to come here and lecture us about our problems.

00:34:49.000 You should be kissing the ground you walked on.

00:34:51.000 But because she doesn't have any ancestors who fought in any of our wars, Or made any sacrifices for America, she thinks it's a right.

00:35:00.000 And so she is entitled.

00:35:02.000 That is the disastrous spirit that we need to be on guard against.

00:35:05.000 You know, Memorial Day is Monday.

00:35:06.000 That's important.

00:35:07.000 My grandfather, both my grandfathers fought in World War II in tanks in North Africa. 0.89

00:35:11.000 My grandpa, Blaine, was a tank sergeant, probably ran over his own men trying to command these guys, came back a fucking shell of a human being to protect us and to make the world what it is today. 0.94

00:35:22.000 These guys, my dad is a. 0.98

00:35:25.000 He gets pissed off at Trump a lot because Trump sometimes, he went to Arlington. 0.99

00:35:28.000 I think he talked shit about the trip. 0.98

00:35:30.000 Sorry, I watched my language. 0.99

00:35:31.000 He was saying, like, oh, what did they even die for?

00:35:33.000 Like, Trump avoided the Vietnam draft because he had bone spurs.

00:35:37.000 He was a rich kid with bone spurs, didn't have to get his legs blown off in the jungle or face, you know, face Charlie or whatever they're doing over there.

00:35:43.000 But these guys, what they've gone through, we live in this like post Cold War era where we are living off the backs of the working man.

00:35:51.000 And we have no, lived in this like fantasy land where there's no fear of retribution from anyone on the planet.

00:35:58.000 It's not.

00:35:59.000 Like, that's a breeding ground for what we see now.

00:36:02.000 People that don't give a, like, don't understand and don't care.

00:36:05.000 They haven't had to fight for anything, like, literally fight.

00:36:11.000 When I see people like flaunting, like, talking, like, getting in, I don't know.

00:36:16.000 There's so many things that people do that I just don't want to wish war on anybody, on anyone I know.

00:36:22.000 I don't want to wish combat on these guys, but there's something about what these people went through that.

00:36:31.000 Makes this country really important.

00:36:33.000 Did you know your grandfather?

00:36:34.000 Yeah, man.

00:36:35.000 But when I met him, he worked for the city when he got back from the army, and he was like a pole guy.

00:36:42.000 He would climb up telephone poles and he fell off and broke his back.

00:36:45.000 So when I knew him, he was bedridden.

00:36:46.000 Wow.

00:36:46.000 Basically.

00:36:47.000 But, and he was a mess.

00:36:49.000 He was a mess of a man because he was in a tin can for like eight months in the hot 108 degree Libyan desert, blowing guys apart, seeing his friends get shredded.

00:36:58.000 God knows.

00:36:59.000 You ever see the movie Fury?

00:37:00.000 That's for everyone out there watching and you're into tanks, go watch Fury.

00:37:04.000 That's the craziest tank movie.

00:37:06.000 Yeah, it's a really good movie.

00:37:07.000 Dude, those, you'll get a better idea of what you're talking about.

00:37:09.000 Lostrophobia, man.

00:37:10.000 Being in one of those metal things and like the friendly fire that doesn't get talked about enough.

00:37:15.000 The amount of, Friendly guys that get killed in combat just because you don't see them.

00:37:19.000 It's awful.

00:37:20.000 You don't know who's pointing where.

00:37:22.000 Like, I don't know how to instill that into people.

00:37:27.000 I don't think you can.

00:37:29.000 That gets instilled in you by external forces.

00:37:32.000 I mean, those generations, they all sacrificed.

00:37:36.000 They all went through absolute hell.

00:37:37.000 And if it wasn't war, it was the depression.

00:37:40.000 It was having to be thrifty and save and not indulge.

00:37:44.000 Ian, we are soft.

00:37:45.000 I mean, that's what you're really getting at is that because the last.

00:37:49.000 What three generations of Americans really haven't sacrificed much?

00:37:53.000 We're starting to see our generation get chewed up and spit out in the workforce and treated like garbage, but that's not the same type of oppression as what you're talking about in Libya being in a tin can.

00:38:04.000 Sometimes Twitter goes down, and that's pretty tough.

00:38:07.000 Or I'm on a plane, I don't have the right wifi.

00:38:09.000 Dudes that served in Iraq in the mid 2000s, you know, and in Afghanistan, I know some people are like, Bro, we kicked doors open and killed kids.

00:38:17.000 Like they talk about Fallujah, the battle of Fallujah.

00:38:20.000 How many seems so terrible, and it's like.

00:38:22.000 Where's the media coverage?

00:38:23.000 It's like we want to cut people, want to cover it up and be like, no, no, no, candy canes and rainbows, let them all come.

00:38:28.000 Let's everybody say hi, dance, let's dance.

00:38:30.000 Bro, you know how many people were killed to create this environment we have?

00:38:34.000 And if we don't protect it, it's going to do that, it's going to become that again.

00:38:36.000 We cannot allow that.

00:38:37.000 Yeah.

00:38:38.000 And then it turns out that one of the people who came here who was invited because he'd worked with U.S. troops in Afghanistan, an Afghan man, came to the U.S. and lived in Washington state and then tried to murder two West Virginia National Guard in Washington, D.C., and did kill.

00:38:54.000 Kill the woman. 0.69

00:38:55.000 And we trained that guy. 1.00

00:38:56.000 And we trained that guy, and he came here and hated us.

00:39:00.000 And so when you look at this, and then you hear about, you know, in Pakistan, a bunch of Afghans went to Pakistan waiting to get basically a lift to the U.S. after they had been supposedly vetted by the United States by the Biden administration because they had worked with the U.S.

00:39:17.000 And so their families get to come to and everything.

00:39:19.000 And Pakistan was tired of waiting, and they were like, you all have to go back because you're doing too much terrorism in Pakistan, and we can't have this.

00:39:27.000 So, when you know, we're supposed to be wide open, our arms are supposed to be wide open. 0.89

00:39:33.000 And I think that we are, but I think we do have to be a lot more careful about why people want to come to the United States. 0.99

00:39:41.000 Do they want to come to the United States because they want to cast off where they're from? 0.94

00:39:44.000 They want to say goodbye to their homeland? 0.72

00:39:47.000 They want to come be American? 0.98

00:39:49.000 Or do they just want to, you know, live somewhere else for a while? 0.97

00:39:54.000 We've seen situations in the UK where people from Afghanistan go and become refugees in the UK. 0.97

00:40:00.000 But then on their holidays, they go home to Afghanistan.

00:40:05.000 What's your refugee status?

00:40:07.000 Like, what do you mean?

00:40:07.000 That guy that you're talking about who shot up the National Guard, I mean, we created him and he was a teen.

00:40:12.000 It was like, I think we had to bring him here.

00:40:14.000 I don't think we should have, but they were saying we have to bring him here because he's a liability out there.

00:40:18.000 He was part of a death troop for us.

00:40:21.000 And then he came out here and I think he had some severe PTSD.

00:40:24.000 Like, he was a mess.

00:40:25.000 Sure.

00:40:25.000 And he should not have been here.

00:40:27.000 And there's more instances like that too of people we've created.

00:40:30.000 And then they come here and just do the kind of the same bad thing that they did over there.

00:40:34.000 Sometimes we talk about a To get citizenship, some sort of national service.

00:40:39.000 Well, that used to be a thing too, right?

00:40:40.000 Is if you were in the country, like people who had been enslaved could gain citizenship by fighting for the Union.

00:40:48.000 That was like a known way to become a citizen. 0.68

00:40:51.000 And that was true. 0.90

00:40:52.000 Revolutionary War.

00:40:53.000 Revolutionary War. 0.86

00:40:54.000 You could, yeah, you could get your freedom that way. 0.84

00:40:56.000 And also, that was true of people who were not Americans. 0.86

00:41:00.000 You could come here if you fought.

00:41:01.000 And I think we still have programs where if you're an immigrant and you're not a citizen, you can fight and earn citizenship that way. 0.98

00:41:08.000 We just can't screw around. 1.00

00:41:09.000 You said earlier, arms wide open.

00:41:10.000 I don't think.

00:41:11.000 You know, it's a fire hose. 1.00

00:41:13.000 Immigration, you need it when you need it, when you're building a country.

00:41:16.000 And then when you have a porous border, you got to close off and wait and get to know what's going on because we cannot allow this country to fall to chaos again. 0.99

00:41:23.000 It can't, we can't allow it and we shouldn't.

00:41:27.000 Yeah, I think you're right.

00:41:29.000 And I think that what you're saying in terms of falling to chaos is a big concern.

00:41:33.000 And you're right too about putting a big pause on immigration.

00:41:36.000 And that's something that we previously did in the 20th century.

00:41:38.000 We were like, okay, we're good for now.

00:41:41.000 We're going to put a pause on it, you know, put a pin in it.

00:41:43.000 We'll come back to it later.

00:41:44.000 And it does make sense, I think, to have like a very full pause, let everyone who's here, you know, try and assimilate those people.

00:41:52.000 And if you don't like it, go home.

00:41:55.000 Like, clearly, you could go home.

00:41:57.000 Our former border czar was very successful at the controlled collapse through immigration.

00:42:02.000 Like, well, Kamala, you know, like, I went down to Yuma, went down to the border wall, and like, it's like soft TSA.

00:42:09.000 It's easier than TSA.

00:42:10.000 They're coming across the border and they're given water bottles and tags for their luggage and a ride and a phone call.

00:42:17.000 They gave me more of a problem for just being down there and checking it out, just driving around the wall.

00:42:22.000 Well, I gave them.

00:42:23.000 Yeah.

00:42:23.000 So, speaking of things we've created, problems we've created, we have Stephen Colbert.

00:42:28.000 Tonight is his last episode of The Late Show.

00:42:32.000 He has been officially canceled by CBS.

00:42:33.000 Tonight's his last night.

00:42:35.000 We have this from Business Insider who says that Stephen Colbert's Late Show exit marks the death of the good celebrity interview.

00:42:44.000 So, yeah, this is very exciting for all of us.

00:42:49.000 I know also that Jimmy Kimmel, I think, went dark.

00:42:52.000 Tonight, as did the other Jimmy.

00:42:53.000 What's his name?

00:42:54.000 Jimmy Fallon.

00:42:55.000 Jimmy Fallon went dark tonight.

00:42:56.000 In solidarity.

00:42:57.000 In solidarity.

00:42:58.000 And I guess so that Stephen Colbert gets all the ratings.

00:43:01.000 Jimmy Kimmel was on Colbert the other night and said, Everyone watch Colbert's last show and then never watch CBS again.

00:43:10.000 We've seen, you know, CBS has had its own ins and outs.

00:43:13.000 They've had, they brought Barry Weiss in to try and mellow things out and make everything a little less crazy.

00:43:18.000 I don't know how that is going.

00:43:21.000 But yeah, so the Business Insider says that.

00:43:25.000 This is the death of the last interview.

00:43:27.000 Colbert was hired to CBS in 2015 to fill the shoes of legendary comedian David Letterman, who retired after hosting The Late Show for more than two decades.

00:43:39.000 When Letterman was on the air, I will say I watched it almost every night.

00:43:42.000 The guests, wasn't always a big fan of the guests, but I always watched the monologue. 0.93

00:43:47.000 Though Colbert's most recent role had been a satirical news anchor, that's 2015, a self described poorly informed, high status idiot on Comedy Central's The Colbert Report.

00:43:58.000 He quickly established himself as a worthy successor, blending humor and charm with thoughtful, studied lines of inquiry that coaxed his famous guests to open up.

00:44:07.000 What do you guys think?

00:44:09.000 I mean, this is a guy who Media Research Council, Media Research Center says that he has had like zero conservative guests on.

00:44:16.000 He's really just pushing leftist ideas.

00:44:19.000 It should have kept Craig Ferguson.

00:44:19.000 What do you guys think?

00:44:21.000 He was one of the greatest hosts for late night.

00:44:23.000 I love, I used to love late night, obviously, not what it turned into.

00:44:26.000 I love, like, Letterman.

00:44:27.000 He might have terrible politics, but I also watched him and.

00:44:30.000 Conan O'Brien a lot growing up.

00:44:32.000 I liked Conan a lot, yeah.

00:44:33.000 Conan had Slipknot on.

00:44:34.000 It was a great show. 0.92

00:44:35.000 But Colbert is awful.

00:44:37.000 Like, I don't think he ever had a good interview. 0.92

00:44:39.000 Actually, there was one interview with Joe Biden of all people, pre being a deep fake and a corpse all the time.

00:44:44.000 There was like a corpse all the time.

00:44:45.000 Well, you know how it was very recently, but there was a pretty strong interview with him.

00:44:52.000 It's weird to say, but when Biden was sad about the loss of Bo Biden, which was terrible, I totally understand that.

00:44:58.000 That was actually, I thought, a good interview.

00:45:00.000 That Biden is long gone, but I didn't see anything.

00:45:03.000 I mean, this is the guy who danced with anthropomorphic syringes during lockdowns.

00:45:07.000 I don't think anything seriously from this guy.

00:45:09.000 Did you watch the Colbert rapport?

00:45:11.000 I did.

00:45:12.000 I made, I've just looked it up.

00:45:13.000 If you look on YouTube after the show or whenever, search Ian Crossland, Stephen Colbert. 0.97

00:45:17.000 I made a video to Stephen Colbert 19 years ago to subvert this guy because I thought he was a phony piece of crap that would make this fake, he was a fake far right warmonger, but he was saying things like, we need to go to war. 0.96

00:45:29.000 And it was a joke, but he was saying it seriously to people. 0.91

00:45:32.000 And I was like, why are you doing this to the.

00:45:34.000 So I wanted to be like, hey man, you could be a good person, Steve.

00:45:38.000 You still can.

00:45:39.000 I think he's really smart, really intelligent.

00:45:41.000 Not necessarily wise, but really, I don't know about your wisdom levels, but your intelligence is high.

00:45:45.000 You're a great actor.

00:45:47.000 You can be very funny, but that doesn't mean you know everything or that you're right.

00:45:52.000 I just remember girls used to send me like Stephen Colbert videos as news.

00:45:57.000 And I'd be like, but this is a Comedy Central show.

00:45:59.000 You do realize that, right?

00:46:01.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:46:02.000 People didn't know it was fake.

00:46:03.000 I could tell there were people that weren't getting it, that they were just being war propagandized by the guy.

00:46:08.000 And he thought it was probably getting his jollies off like, ooh, I'm so funny.

00:46:11.000 I'm so funny.

00:46:12.000 I'm the anti Jon Stewart.

00:46:13.000 And it was like, I don't know.

00:46:15.000 I never liked his patterns.

00:46:18.000 Never, never.

00:46:19.000 What I didn't like about the Colbert Report was, and keep in mind, I was like a political activist in college, I was a Republican. 0.99

00:46:27.000 The interviews he would do with the Republican members and senators would always be like humiliating, making them actually look stupid. 0.97

00:46:35.000 But then the ones with the Democrats, like my hometown congressman, Phil Hare, was on, and it was just more of a silly interview. 1.00

00:46:42.000 He actually made himself look dumb. 0.96

00:46:45.000 And made Phil Hare look like the smart, mature guy. 0.99

00:46:48.000 And it's all just subversive.

00:46:50.000 And you said it best about the anaphomorphic syringes.

00:46:55.000 It's a propaganda show.

00:46:56.000 Even that headline, these are the best interviews.

00:46:59.000 These are great interviews.

00:47:00.000 No, they're puff interviews.

00:47:01.000 There's no tough questions.

00:47:02.000 There's nothing interesting being said.

00:47:04.000 David Letterman, who we brought up, the great and wonderful one and only David Letterman, one of the greatest talk show hosts of all time, maybe the best, Johnny Carson, they'd stayed out of politics intentionally and they would talk about staying out of politics.

00:47:15.000 That's late night.

00:47:16.000 They would jump on everyone.

00:47:17.000 What, yeah, yeah.

00:47:18.000 If they did mention politics, it would be jokes on everyone.

00:47:20.000 No one was safe.

00:47:21.000 And I, Johnny Carson, maybe it was explicit that this is not the show for politics.

00:47:25.000 This is a comedy show.

00:47:26.000 This is a show to lighten the mood at the end of the night so people can have fun and go to work.

00:47:30.000 Bring us all together, right?

00:47:31.000 Getting Democrats and Republicans in the same room, watching the same shows, laughing at each other, it brought us closer.

00:47:37.000 Whereas when you just target one side for humiliation, that's when the divide starts to happen.

00:47:42.000 Yeah.

00:47:43.000 And he has been doing that for 19 years.

00:47:44.000 You're right.

00:47:47.000 These are major shows with.

00:47:48.000 Billions of dollars behind them, promoting them and putting them on the airwaves.

00:47:53.000 It's all deliberate. 0.72

00:47:54.000 Like, I'm so black pill. 0.97

00:47:56.000 I go back and forth between being white pilled and black pilled. 0.97

00:47:59.000 I am a Christian.

00:48:00.000 Yeah, maybe.

00:48:01.000 Most of the time, it's just a gray pill, but these are all propaganda outlets at this point.

00:48:01.000 Yes, I am.

00:48:05.000 Like, there's no real news. 1.00

00:48:07.000 They don't cover the Somalian fraud.

00:48:09.000 They don't cover real news stories that are actually impacting people's lives.

00:48:12.000 And they definitely don't ever call out the real bad guys.

00:48:16.000 They make the good guys the bad guys.

00:48:17.000 It's funny that you're even referring to it as like, A news show that's not a news show, because it's not even supposed to be remotely near a news show.

00:48:24.000 It's a comedy.

00:48:25.000 I mean, it's supposed to be a comedy.

00:48:26.000 Well, I don't know what it's supposed to be, but it has always been a comedy monologue, and then you interview celebrities.

00:48:30.000 That's the show.

00:48:31.000 Yeah, I don't think Conan got political.

00:48:33.000 Like, I don't remember anything except for like weird humor that I thought was hilarious.

00:48:37.000 I don't know if it's jokes.

00:48:38.000 Like they had shows, everybody.

00:48:39.000 It's interesting too that what happens is if you're political and you have guests on and you're a political host, then the guest wants to have a good interview.

00:48:47.000 And so they'll agree with what you say, you know, because they're promoting their book or their movie or whatever it is, their album.

00:48:54.000 And so they'll go along with what you're saying because they want a good reaction from your audience and you're guiding them as to how to do that with your political views.

00:49:03.000 So I think that's a big part of it too.

00:49:05.000 What do you think about the announcement that he's going to be directing or writing a Lord of the Rings trilogy?

00:49:11.000 Piece.

00:49:12.000 I like it.

00:49:12.000 I mean, I think he's a great actor and a brilliant dude.

00:49:16.000 Like Colbert, he's hilarious in the right environment, but he knows that world very well.

00:49:24.000 I'm not a huge fan of his writing.

00:49:26.000 He loves that stuff.

00:49:27.000 Yeah.

00:49:27.000 No, it's weird.

00:49:28.000 A lot of people love it though, and they could be really good at it.

00:49:31.000 I don't even hate Stephen Colbert.

00:49:32.000 I like, I want him to succeed.

00:49:34.000 I always have.

00:49:35.000 That's why I made a video response to him 19 years ago.

00:49:37.000 What do you want him to succeed doing though?

00:49:39.000 To be a better communicator, to really be real, to be real, not to be.

00:49:46.000 A position or a facade of a guy that thinks a thing and wants a thing you don't even understand.

00:49:51.000 Like, just break down on camera once in a while for real, man.

00:49:55.000 But he did.

00:49:56.000 Like, he cried on camera once, but it was so, like, fake Mr. Rogers.

00:49:59.000 What's it about?

00:50:00.000 I think it was about the election.

00:50:01.000 Oh, it was the election or COVID.

00:50:03.000 I forget which, but it was so put on.

00:50:05.000 It's fake.

00:50:06.000 He was successful as a character, but he failed as himself.

00:50:10.000 Do you guys remember Jimmy Kimmel crying over Cecil the Lion?

00:50:13.000 He cried a lot.

00:50:14.000 Dentist on a safari and they shot some lion in South Africa.

00:50:18.000 Yeah.

00:50:18.000 And he was like literally bawling on a TV.

00:50:20.000 I want to make a breakdown.

00:50:21.000 Like, he's like, I don't know if I can do this anymore.

00:50:23.000 I don't know if I can be a mouthpiece for the corporations anymore.

00:50:25.000 Like, that kind of, like a full on news.

00:50:28.000 What's that movie from the 80s where he's like, Network.

00:50:30.000 Yeah, Network.

00:50:31.000 I'm mad as hell.

00:50:32.000 And I'm not going to take it anymore.

00:50:33.000 One of the greatest movies ever.

00:50:34.000 I want to see that from Colbert.

00:50:35.000 I want to see something like that from one of these guys on the mainstream TV.

00:50:37.000 We don't see that from anybody.

00:50:39.000 I mean, we don't see any of that.

00:50:41.000 We see so much going along to get along, we see so much propagandizing and just re emphasizing the.

00:50:49.000 Essentially, the globalist progressive party line, which is something that I'm so sick of seeing because it's all about just controlling everybody.

00:50:57.000 And Colbert dancing around with the syringes was all about controlling everybody, you know?

00:51:03.000 And the thing too with you, with Kimmel's support right now for Colbert, like, I find it really hard to look at Jimmy Kimmel without, you know, bile rising in my throat after what he said about Charlie Kirk.

00:51:14.000 I just find it really difficult to not just take him seriously, but like, Feel anything other, feel anything from him other than like just disgust, you know?

00:51:25.000 And a lot of their jokes are based in like a false reality.

00:51:28.000 So the jokes don't land for a lot of people because they're not based in anything that's tangible.

00:51:33.000 I mean, they think it is, but they're reading, they have a bad media diet.

00:51:36.000 I think I'm paraphrasing what Norm MacDonald said once about you have to have some kind of love or empathy when you're going after these people or trying to be them, you know?

00:51:44.000 Like he was, I think he was talking about a Trump impersonation on SNL, how it kept falling flat because it was all out of hate.

00:51:50.000 But like, you know, you can tell now they have a new SNL.

00:51:53.000 Kind of good moments lately.

00:51:53.000 SNL's had some.

00:51:54.000 It's been, I'm sort of the most angry at the Republicans right now because they've allowed SNL to be funny again.

00:52:00.000 Yeah, they've had some pretty good moments lately.

00:52:03.000 That one girl, I don't know her name, she's awesome. 0.91

00:52:05.000 She's new.

00:52:06.000 Really good.

00:52:06.000 There's a few.

00:52:07.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:52:07.000 They've had some pretty good sketches.

00:52:08.000 And they've had some funny jokes at the Republicans' expense.

00:52:11.000 Yeah.

00:52:12.000 For a while, the left was so crazy that you couldn't even satirize it. 0.88

00:52:16.000 They even brought back Aziz.

00:52:18.000 They're like, we will undo the Me Too. 0.93

00:52:18.000 Right. 0.93

00:52:20.000 Right.

00:52:20.000 Just, we need you for cash.

00:52:21.000 That was such a bogus Me Too.

00:52:23.000 That was just so bogus.

00:52:24.000 The issue with Colbert, like, Jon Stewart made.

00:52:26.000 His career.

00:52:27.000 He was a nobody.

00:52:28.000 Jon Stewart put him on his show, The Daily Show, and turned him into a funny, you know, him and Steve and the other guy from The Office, Steve, who I have no problem with.

00:52:35.000 Corel.

00:52:36.000 Corel.

00:52:36.000 Corel and Colbert were on.

00:52:37.000 You never hear his politics.

00:52:39.000 He's just funny as hell.

00:52:40.000 He's just hilarious, top level A plus list actor.

00:52:43.000 But Colbert went from potentially, like, Jon Stewart still can be pretty counterculture.

00:52:47.000 Like, he's smart enough to figure out when he's wrong.

00:52:49.000 And he was anti all the COVID stuff.

00:52:51.000 Yeah, he's like wise enough to admit it.

00:52:55.000 But he, so he platforms this guy, Stephen Colbert, and Colbert's like could be a counter, like, he could really become counter to the media narrative, but he chose to take the big money and sit with the sharks.

00:53:07.000 Maybe he just doesn't know. 1.00

00:53:09.000 Maybe he's like too stupid, like, he does it or too. 1.00

00:53:11.000 Too dumb, I don't know what the right word is, too oblivious to know what he's doing, or maybe he is just loves it. 1.00

00:53:17.000 Yeah, I think it's that. 0.99

00:53:18.000 I think him and his writer's room are so ideologically driven that they have to, they think they have to create that kind of thing.

00:53:23.000 Whereas Letterman, you know, they letterman, we know his politics, but on the show, the writer's room seemed from a distance focused on just good jokes, you know, and absurdity, you know, and that resonated more with people and Milan's like music, right?

00:53:37.000 He loved drums, so every time there's a great drummer, you always hear Letterman say, Love your drums, you know, he loved that stuff.

00:53:43.000 Paul Schaefer.

00:53:43.000 Some of the greatest comedians are drummers.

00:53:45.000 You know, Carson was also a drummer.

00:53:47.000 Oh, interesting.

00:53:47.000 I was referencing Paul Schaefer, you know, Letterman's number two.

00:53:52.000 Classic.

00:53:52.000 The phenomenal pianist, you know, one of the great.

00:53:55.000 Does Colbert have a music?

00:53:57.000 He had a band, yeah.

00:53:57.000 I don't even know.

00:53:59.000 I know he started with a band, you know, but it's not as awesome and interesting as it was for the other band.

00:54:03.000 No, I know that we're not like picking and choosing all these different late night hosts, but I kind of like Jimmy Fallon a lot.

00:54:09.000 I mean, I.

00:54:09.000 The thing I like about Jelly Bear is he's wonderfully brilliant and very musical.

00:54:15.000 I actually really like his lip sync battles.

00:54:17.000 Yeah, he has the roots.

00:54:18.000 The lip sync battles were great.

00:54:19.000 No, we're not talking about that.

00:54:20.000 He never did it for me.

00:54:21.000 Conan was my guy.

00:54:22.000 And Letterman had the greatest moments in TV in terms of I love Andy Kaufman.

00:54:26.000 So anytime Andy Kaufman was on, it was great.

00:54:30.000 Joaquin Phoenix doing his own Andy Kaufman was great.

00:54:32.000 You know who's the opposite of Stephen Colbert?

00:54:34.000 Bill Maher.

00:54:35.000 Bill Maher was the guy that after 9 11 spoke up about, hey, maybe they aren't totally wrong about what we've been doing to the world.

00:54:42.000 And then they canceled his show, politically correct.

00:54:44.000 And he's like, well, that's what I get for speaking the truth.

00:54:46.000 That was a great show.

00:54:47.000 And he is still great.

00:54:49.000 I totally disagree with his take on 9 11, but do you guys see that he is going to be honored at the Kennedy Center?

00:54:54.000 He's going to be getting, like, what is it, the big Kennedy Center prize?

00:54:57.000 Mark Twain Prize?

00:54:58.000 Is it the Mark Twain Prize?

00:54:59.000 I think it might be that he's getting that June 28th.

00:55:02.000 Interesting.

00:55:03.000 He stuck to it for real.

00:55:04.000 And he's like, he sees both sides.

00:55:07.000 He sees multiple angles.

00:55:09.000 For Steve, either Stephen can't see it or he knows he'll lose his job.

00:55:13.000 I'm wondering when he's going to lose his job anyway.

00:55:15.000 I know.

00:55:16.000 So what he's doing next is the Lord of the Rings.

00:55:16.000 Yeah.

00:55:19.000 And CBS is filling in, I think, with some sort of comedy show with like stand up or something.

00:55:19.000 Well, okay.

00:55:24.000 More Big Bang Theory.

00:55:26.000 More Big Bang Theory.

00:55:27.000 More laugh track.

00:55:28.000 More signs that say, we should get a sign in here that says laugh.

00:55:28.000 Yeah.

00:55:31.000 I mean, just blink it every once in a while.

00:55:33.000 There is one.

00:55:33.000 Don't tell the people.

00:55:34.000 And then there was Chelsea Handler today going, like, lashing out about the Kevin Hart roast.

00:55:39.000 Oh, come on. 0.88

00:55:40.000 I thought it was great.

00:55:41.000 Oh, it was great.

00:55:41.000 I thought it was funny.

00:55:42.000 Cat Williams was my favorite part.

00:55:43.000 I was walking around Manhattan last week and people listening to it out loud.

00:55:43.000 Cat Williams.

00:55:48.000 I'm like, that's awesome.

00:55:48.000 Cat Williams part.

00:55:49.000 Well, Cat Williams is.

00:55:50.000 Killed. 0.67

00:55:51.000 He's the bomb. 0.87

00:55:51.000 We were talking about doing political comedy, and my first take was like, that sounds like an oxymoron. 0.87

00:55:56.000 I think politics is the most unfunny, the most serious conversation you can have, and the antithesis of comedy.

00:56:03.000 They have no place together.

00:56:04.000 It's nothing but funny.

00:56:06.000 I think politics is so absurd and funny.

00:56:08.000 But real politics, there's no comedy in it.

00:56:10.000 It's about saving lives.

00:56:12.000 No, it isn't.

00:56:12.000 They tell you that.

00:56:13.000 They don't mean it.

00:56:15.000 It's about power.

00:56:16.000 I mean, politics is about.

00:56:18.000 It's entire.

00:56:19.000 I think.

00:56:19.000 Saving your tribe with power.

00:56:20.000 It's entirely about.

00:56:21.000 Power and insider trading.

00:56:23.000 And it needs to be subverted through humor.

00:56:25.000 And we need to make fun of it.

00:56:25.000 Mostly.

00:56:25.000 Yeah.

00:56:27.000 Yeah. 1.00

00:56:28.000 They need to be roasted constantly.

00:56:29.000 I think they should be making fun of themselves a little more.

00:56:31.000 I mean, what's funnier than, you know, rich politicians going out demanding that everyone tax the rich and then being like, but not me.

00:56:42.000 Yeah.

00:56:42.000 I mean, it's funny, strange.

00:56:42.000 Not me.

00:56:44.000 It's not funny, haha.

00:56:46.000 I think it's, I think it's, I think it can be, it's not funny, haha in a good natured way.

00:56:50.000 It's funny, haha in a black pill.

00:56:52.000 It's horrific.

00:56:53.000 It's like, I'll laugh at the little, like the guys in the military that are killing, you know, in the jungle, killing little kids and then laughing about it.

00:56:59.000 Like, I'll watch their bodies flop around.

00:57:01.000 It's like, not funny, but it might make people laugh, but it's not funny.

00:57:06.000 Should we look at the Chelsea handler and see what she had to say?

00:57:09.000 Here it is.

00:57:11.000 I don't have a lot of.

00:57:13.000 I'm 51, so like I'm pretty secure with who I am. 0.98

00:57:18.000 I don't care if these guys say that I'm a whore. 0.94

00:57:21.000 Like I'm doing exactly what they're doing, except I'm a woman and not allowed to. 0.98

00:57:27.000 And that's real. 0.99

00:57:27.000 Yeah, I'm rich, I'm famous, and I'm hot. 0.99

00:57:30.000 So I'm fucking people. 0.99

00:57:31.000 It's like. 0.99

00:57:31.000 That's what I'm going to do, and I'm going to continue to keep doing that as long as, you know, I remain as fuckable as I am. 0.99

00:57:38.000 So I don't really see the problem. 0.79

00:57:40.000 Yeah, no, and I think a lot of other women should feel the same way out there, especially women that I run into.

00:57:46.000 Yeah, whether you're famous, oh, yeah, whether you're famous or rich, those don't apply.

00:57:51.000 But like the idea that, like, what were they going to say about me? 0.97

00:57:54.000 They couldn't say anything other than that I'm a whore or my age. 0.97

00:57:59.000 I think that was the other thing that they went in. 0.94

00:58:01.000 And you're like, well, okay, those aren't jokes.

00:58:04.000 That's not clever writing.

00:58:05.000 And I knew they would be lazy because they do that for a living.

00:58:09.000 And I knew enough about like, Tony Hinchcliffe and Shane and their backgrounds.

00:58:14.000 I had girls, ex girlfriends blowing up my DMs that had dated Shane and were telling me stuff about him.

00:58:21.000 So, based on that, I was like, oh, these guys are pretty bad.

00:58:24.000 So, you had something on him that you was going to tell us now what Shane is.

00:58:31.000 It's just everything we know that they're racist, that they're bigots, that they're sexist, you know, that they think they're like invincible, that they've been canceled for being like, you know, Shane got fired from SNL, but then was on SNL.

00:58:46.000 Years later.

00:58:47.000 So he got fired.

00:58:48.000 So, what happened in between those two events?

00:58:50.000 So, he believes this is part of one of his exes that he's invincible.

00:58:55.000 He's like, doesn't matter.

00:58:55.000 I can say anything I want.

00:58:57.000 Yeah.

00:58:57.000 Do you think that now a lot of like white comics, they feel as though that they could say something racist and it's more further their career?

00:59:05.000 Yeah, they're going to get in with that group of like Roganites and that Austin group of Joe Rogan and all of those guys.

00:59:12.000 And I just, you know, like that's their MO.

00:59:16.000 Even some girl comics have started to do it to be like in with that.

00:59:20.000 With that group, yeah, yeah.

00:59:22.000 I was like, they say this, racist, yeah, because I'm starting to feel that I'm starting to feel like it's this thing.

00:59:30.000 Do you think that white comics are racist?

00:59:34.000 You're like, bro, that was a racist question.

00:59:36.000 Have they never watched this guy in a broke t shirt?

00:59:36.000 Who is this guy?

00:59:40.000 Like, have they never seen Richard Pryor on a panel on a dais like dais roasting?

00:59:45.000 This is this is not new, no, it's not.

00:59:47.000 And also, like, when somebody does a character trip, caricature.

00:59:52.000 If you have a big nose, they're going to emphasize the nose.

00:59:54.000 It's all about surface things.

00:59:55.000 So if she's running around, like, you know, doing whatever it is that she's apparently proud of, that's what they're going to make fun of.

01:00:02.000 Right.

01:00:03.000 You're a walking Planned Parenthood.

01:00:04.000 Because I really love that.

01:00:05.000 You're a walking Planned Parenthood.

01:00:06.000 It's funny.

01:00:07.000 She did kind of forget the biggest joke and the funniest line that Shane landed, which is that she went to Epstein's Island.

01:00:14.000 It's interesting that she forgot to.

01:00:14.000 Right.

01:00:16.000 She couldn't remember that third part that they attacked her over.

01:00:18.000 Right.

01:00:19.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:00:19.000 She's like, hot and sexable she is. 1.00

01:00:22.000 And then she went on to be like, Oh man, and then she was like claiming how Shane thinks he's invincible.

01:00:29.000 And, like, Chelsea, if you fall down into a gutter tomorrow and bust your face up, you're no longer what you think you are. 0.98

01:00:34.000 Like, you're just a fallible hominid, like all of us. 1.00

01:00:38.000 So get your head out of your ass. 1.00

01:00:39.000 No one remembers Chelsea's jokes from The Roast. 1.00

01:00:41.000 No, well, because she's not funny.

01:00:43.000 She's not funny.

01:00:44.000 I mean, Shane Gillis is funny.

01:00:44.000 Right?

01:00:46.000 Tony Hinchcliffe is funny.

01:00:48.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:00:48.000 And the thing about these jokes, I know, go ahead.

01:00:51.000 Well, she can be very funny, but she seems so pissed off, like, the last seven years about stuff. 0.51

01:00:55.000 Yeah, she does seem kind of mad.

01:00:57.000 And the thing, too, about these, um, These comics, and I appreciate the new sort of more offensive leaning comedy because you actually laugh, you know.

01:01:08.000 I mean, the comedy that we've seen over the past several years, the sort of like woke comedy, you don't laugh, it's nothing's funny, but you do laugh when it's like, Oh my goodness, I can't believe he said that.

01:01:17.000 That's really fun.

01:01:18.000 Go back and watch the old Dean Martin roasts, right?

01:01:20.000 And they were insane.

01:01:22.000 What's his name?

01:01:23.000 Oh, what's his name?

01:01:25.000 Uh, I know Rickles is hard at core.

01:01:27.000 That was the best, bro.

01:01:29.000 He was.

01:01:30.000 Yeah.

01:01:30.000 Wild.

01:01:31.000 Yeah. 0.53

01:01:31.000 She would have gone way harder against her than Shane did. 0.53

01:01:31.000 Everyone got it. 0.53

01:01:34.000 I mean, yes.

01:01:35.000 Be whining like this about Shane Gillis.

01:01:37.000 Like, you haven't seen anything yet.

01:01:39.000 No, no.

01:01:39.000 She should go back and watch some Rickles.

01:01:41.000 Is it they forgot about it?

01:01:43.000 I don't watch a lot of roasts and I don't watch a lot of post roast breakdowns.

01:01:46.000 Do they do post roast breakdowns?

01:01:48.000 Now, this is new because they're coping.

01:01:50.000 All the feelings I have about that roast I got like, you signed up for the roast, Chelsea.

01:01:54.000 Like, what do you, why are you complaining about it?

01:01:55.000 You're not going to be invited back to the next one, probably.

01:01:57.000 Like, you know, you're going to get roasted.

01:01:58.000 Like, Kevin Hart, you're going to get roasted. 0.99

01:02:00.000 For being black and for being short. 0.99

01:02:02.000 And that's what all the funny jokes are. 1.00

01:02:03.000 It was hilarious.

01:02:05.000 And he laughed.

01:02:06.000 He was a tough guy.

01:02:06.000 Because he gets what the roast is for.

01:02:08.000 You're supposed to go after that stuff.

01:02:10.000 I also think that there's some.

01:02:11.000 And the ditty parties.

01:02:12.000 They got him on the ditty parties.

01:02:13.000 And the ditty parties.

01:02:14.000 Ditty parties.

01:02:15.000 I never went to any of those, by the way.

01:02:17.000 I wasn't cool enough to get invited.

01:02:20.000 But there's also, at the heart of Shane Gillis' humor, is actually self deprecation.

01:02:24.000 Like he's like, all right, I'm a big, fat, white guy who loves Trump and yeah, I do notice race, I do notice things.

01:02:34.000 Uh, let's just dig into that. 0.81

01:02:35.000 And so, all of his jokes are actually making fun of himself and helping us make fun of ourselves and get comfortable.

01:02:41.000 He's he's like an attack vaccine for the rest of us, right? 0.99

01:02:49.000 So, like, the left is calling us racists and bigots and MAGA supporters, and he helps us not give a shit. 0.99

01:02:55.000 Yeah, when he leaned into how he looks like he has Down syndrome, because people were like putting a picture with him and a guy with Down syndrome, and he's like, I do look like a guy with Down syndrome. 0.99

01:03:03.000 It's so good.

01:03:04.000 I was like, Okay, he's the man, he fits right in in the special needs area.

01:03:07.000 Perfect.

01:03:08.000 And Tony with Kill Tony started like he made a lot of people's careers.

01:03:13.000 Like that show is one of my favorite shows.

01:03:14.000 I love watching Kill Tony.

01:03:16.000 And he's got people like Cam Patterson who started out on Kill Tony.

01:03:18.000 He's on SNL now, which is probably why SNL has some better moments right now.

01:03:21.000 That's probably why they're doing better.

01:03:23.000 Yeah.

01:03:23.000 He's hilarious.

01:03:25.000 Oh, Cam Patterson is amazing.

01:03:25.000 Yeah.

01:03:25.000 That really is.

01:03:27.000 Yeah.

01:03:28.000 I saw him at the Comedy Mothership.

01:03:30.000 Oh, sick.

01:03:31.000 And he's incredible. 1.00

01:03:32.000 He kills.

01:03:32.000 One of the funniest human beings of all time.

01:03:34.000 Yep.

01:03:35.000 And I met him at the Austin Airport the next day and he talked to me for like, 10 minutes and was like very personal.

01:03:42.000 And I love that guy.

01:03:43.000 I didn't know he was on SNL.

01:03:44.000 He collects rocks too.

01:03:45.000 Yeah, I like rocks.

01:03:49.000 Whenever I see like a celebrity who's like just really good to their fans, I always think of this thing with Barbara Eden.

01:03:54.000 So remember Barbara Eden?

01:03:56.000 She was I Dream of Genie.

01:03:57.000 I don't know if you guys remember I Dream of Genie.

01:03:58.000 It's old.

01:03:59.000 It's like black and white television.

01:04:01.000 I think it was on Nick and Knight.

01:04:03.000 But yeah, I Dream of Genie was Barbara Eden said she was asked, Whenever you're at a Comic Con or whatever, when you're at one of these things, you always stay until the last fan has had their autograph or their picture taken.

01:04:20.000 Why do you do that?

01:04:21.000 And she was like, Well, because these are my fans.

01:04:23.000 And I wouldn't have a career without my fans.

01:04:25.000 And I love them.

01:04:27.000 And I always see when you see celebrities who are good to their fans, I always think, Yeah, that's the Barbara Eden way.

01:04:32.000 That's the right way to be.

01:04:34.000 One of the best upcoming, maybe not, Tim Robinson.

01:04:38.000 Oh, dude.

01:04:38.000 You guys follow?

01:04:39.000 Oh, my God.

01:04:39.000 Hilarious.

01:04:40.000 Absolutely.

01:04:41.000 The best in the world.

01:04:42.000 Maybe the best in the world.

01:04:43.000 I mean, I think you should leave that show.

01:04:45.000 Are you sure about that?

01:04:46.000 Yes.

01:04:46.000 He started off as like a meme.

01:04:48.000 I don't know.

01:04:48.000 He was on SNL.

01:04:49.000 Oh, he was on SNL.

01:04:50.000 And they just didn't take sketches, they didn't use him right.

01:04:53.000 Oh man, he's a genius.

01:04:54.000 He's a genius.

01:04:55.000 And the other guy, Connor, that he works with, I don't know his last name.

01:04:59.000 They're so funny together.

01:05:01.000 So maybe there's like two kinds of humor we're looking at here.

01:05:03.000 There's like the clapping seal where it's like, guy did thing, emphasis, emphasis, emphasis about how bad it was, but counter that, applause.

01:05:13.000 And people go crazy and they're like, yeah, the way they say it.

01:05:15.000 And then they're cued to laugh.

01:05:17.000 And that's like corporate humor that you see on the.

01:05:19.000 And then there's the other guys that just, you're already laughing because they said the racist word.

01:05:22.000 I'm not going to say it tonight because.

01:05:24.000 It's a family friendly show, but they already stick it in you, you know, and you're like, Oh my god, I just heard that.

01:05:30.000 I really heard him say that, and you're already laughing and like crying laughing.

01:05:36.000 And just the he, they stick it in you.

01:05:37.000 Yeah, before you even realize it, they got there, they penetrate.

01:05:41.000 He's doing it like to me.

01:05:42.000 You guys can't see it at home, but he's actually, I'm feeling violated right now.

01:05:47.000 I saw that.

01:05:48.000 I'm, yeah, I'm not comfortable.

01:05:50.000 I like that humor more where it's like surprising.

01:05:52.000 Well, Tim Robinson is like an absurdist.

01:05:54.000 Yes.

01:05:55.000 And like, I love the Key and Peele sketches as well.

01:05:57.000 And that's kind of like similar wheelhouse.

01:05:59.000 The Hunk one.

01:06:00.000 Yeah.

01:06:00.000 Like a bird.

01:06:01.000 Age on his head.

01:06:02.000 Tim Heidecker, who I know people, he's become very political.

01:06:07.000 He's doing the onion thing with Alex.

01:06:08.000 Oh, he's good.

01:06:09.000 But he is amazing.

01:06:10.000 Dude, dude.

01:06:11.000 Tim and Eric is going to be my favorite show.

01:06:11.000 What a fun movie.

01:06:13.000 Like Tim and Eric's billion dollar movie.

01:06:15.000 I watched that so many times. 1.00

01:06:16.000 It's stupid. 1.00

01:06:17.000 Like, it's funny if you accept how stupid it is. 1.00

01:06:19.000 I love that. 1.00

01:06:20.000 Even David Cross, I think.

01:06:23.000 I like Arrested Development.

01:06:24.000 I mean, I'm going off the rails right now talking about Arrested Development.

01:06:26.000 That's one of the greatest shows up there with like 30 Rock.

01:06:26.000 I love Arrested Development.

01:06:28.000 Absurdest movie.

01:06:30.000 Sometimes just pops into my head when Tobias says, I think I just blew myself.

01:06:38.000 And it's like he'd painted himself.

01:06:42.000 And then Jason Bateman's character goes, You know what you do, buddy?

01:06:46.000 Is you carry around a tape recorder and you just record yourself for a couple of days and then you listen back.

01:06:52.000 Lucille.

01:06:53.000 Well, speaking of crazy, funny things, we have Spencer Pratt, who has been absolutely killing it from my perspective from afar in the LA Mayorals race.

01:07:02.000 And I think it's because I just watched.

01:07:05.000 Mamdani went in New York.

01:07:07.000 That I'm really rooting for Pratt.

01:07:09.000 We didn't have a Pratt in New York.

01:07:11.000 We had Curtis Slewa, who keeps running for mayor and is never going to win.

01:07:16.000 He's a very respectable man in his own right, but he also has a bunch of cats and he's never going to win.

01:07:21.000 And the GOP refuses to do anything about New York City.

01:07:24.000 They won't back anybody in New York City.

01:07:26.000 They just decide that it's fine.

01:07:28.000 But Spencer Pratt is really making this great run in LA.

01:07:31.000 So I thought we should talk about it.

01:07:33.000 We have this from the post millennial.

01:07:36.000 Spencer Pratt reveals how threats and intimidation drove him to the GOP as his LA mayoral campaign ads take over the internet.

01:07:44.000 So, I wanted to play for you guys this clip of Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt, who revealed the reason behind his becoming Republican in the deep blue area of California.

01:07:55.000 This is from Thomas Stevenson over at Postmillennial.

01:07:58.000 And he made this comment as he's been praised for viral political ads, many of them have been crafted with AI.

01:08:05.000 And I'm not a fan of AI.

01:08:07.000 But in this case, I do think he's been doing a great job with it.

01:08:10.000 And part of my reasoning is that he lives in LA.

01:08:14.000 Gavin Newsom has been doing such a bad job with the entertainment industry.

01:08:17.000 It's very hard to make things in Los Angeles.

01:08:19.000 How are you supposed to afford those union rules?

01:08:22.000 So, by all means, you know, do the little end run around with LA.

01:08:25.000 But here he is talking about why he became a Republican.

01:08:27.000 Why are you a Republican?

01:08:29.000 Well, you want to break some news here?

01:08:32.000 Sure.

01:08:33.000 When I was a hated reality star, I got so many death threats.

01:08:38.000 I had so much security and police.

01:08:40.000 And what did they tell me to do?

01:08:42.000 Get a gun.

01:08:43.000 This is real.

01:08:44.000 I know people don't like guns, but LA was dangerous if you're hated.

01:08:47.000 So, I got a gun. 0.78

01:08:48.000 My wife got a gun. 1.00

01:08:50.000 And then we needed CCWs. 0.85

01:08:53.000 The only people that supported a CCW was the Republican. 0.77

01:08:57.000 That was what I aligned with my safety, my personal safety, my family's safety.

01:09:02.000 I know people don't like guns, but when people are threatening your life and your own security is telling you, you need to have home protection, train to it's not like just I went to the, you know, go through the proper steps.

01:09:13.000 That was my.

01:09:16.000 That's it.

01:09:16.000 And that was it.

01:09:17.000 And he felt like that party was more pro Second Amendment.

01:09:20.000 And I know that's a very hot button, but here's the thing.

01:09:23.000 I'm also going to be the mayor that puts LAPD in front of every school to make schools safe from guns.

01:09:29.000 Right now, we have officers to do that.

01:09:32.000 I talked to a very knowledgeable law enforcement.

01:09:35.000 All you have to do is pick one patrol unit and you give them a nice pin that connects to that school, and that's their street.

01:09:44.000 So they add that one.

01:09:45.000 So that's already part of mine.

01:09:46.000 Because obviously, I know people don't like guns, and we need to make everything, especially schools, safe.

01:09:53.000 I connect to.

01:09:55.000 And once you feel fear and it's real, you want to protect your families.

01:10:00.000 That's a masterclass in communications.

01:10:02.000 That is because he's showing empathy with the people that are going to disagree with him.

01:10:07.000 And it's so authentic, it's so real.

01:10:09.000 You really can't argue with someone that's gotten serious amounts of death threats and them wanting to have a gun and wanting their wife to have a gun.

01:10:17.000 That was amazing.

01:10:18.000 He's just so fresh and he's so authentic and real.

01:10:23.000 And that's what happens when a city lets your house burn down and then won't let you rebuild, you have nothing left to fight for.

01:10:30.000 So you really don't care anymore.

01:10:31.000 I think they've only put up 400 permits for thousands and thousands of homes that have burned down.

01:10:37.000 And you had also.

01:10:38.000 It is deliberate because you also, what you have is the government wants those people to sell their land to the government so that they can create more government housing and essentially ruin what was a spectacular neighborhood from all accounts to raise families in.

01:10:38.000 It is deliberate.

01:10:53.000 Or even worse, Libby, they are just trying to steal it to give to other billionaires and rich people that want that coveted land.

01:11:01.000 I've been to LA a bunch.

01:11:02.000 It's one of my favorite parts of the country.

01:11:04.000 It really has great food, great music.

01:11:06.000 I went to Long Beach and I decided to listen to Sublime as I'm walking up and down, and it was a life changing experience.

01:11:14.000 I understood that band.

01:11:15.000 I understood LA.

01:11:17.000 But it's so sad what they've allowed to happen to that area.

01:11:20.000 To Malibu?

01:11:21.000 Malibu, UCH, up the one.

01:11:23.000 Yeah, dude.

01:11:24.000 That was an iconic area.

01:11:26.000 California is the one place that I wish I'd taken some time to live in, you know?

01:11:30.000 Yes.

01:11:31.000 That's like 100% worth it.

01:11:33.000 If you ever get a chance to live in California for three years, do it.

01:11:36.000 It's painfully beautiful.

01:11:37.000 It feels different.

01:11:38.000 And the food is so good.

01:11:39.000 It might be the fault line, the San Andreas fault, but it literally, like the vibration.

01:11:43.000 It smells different.

01:11:44.000 Right?

01:11:44.000 It smells different.

01:11:45.000 I had allergies when I was there. 1.00

01:11:46.000 Pacific.

01:11:47.000 I was only there for like a week.

01:11:48.000 I just, I got really bad allergies.

01:11:48.000 What'd you do?

01:11:50.000 Interesting.

01:11:51.000 It's just so unfortunate.

01:11:52.000 Or polleny.

01:11:52.000 It's run by demons.

01:11:54.000 Yes.

01:11:54.000 It's such a big state.

01:11:55.000 I don't think it should be one state.

01:11:57.000 I don't think the South can govern the North, and I don't think the North can govern the South except the water rights.

01:12:02.000 I don't know how they would delineate the water because the water is coming from the North.

01:12:05.000 Well, and now we have the data centers.

01:12:06.000 But I want it.

01:12:07.000 Speaking of arrested development, we have this post from Gene Parmesan.

01:12:11.000 This is one of the Spencer Pratt videos, and I just wanted to share it with you guys.

01:12:19.000 This mayor race is really heating up.

01:12:21.000 Who are you guys voting for?

01:12:23.000 Haven't decided?

01:12:25.000 Same, haven't really been following it.

01:12:27.000 Same, same, same. 0.99

01:12:31.000 I'm not MAGA or anything, but the city's kind of gone to shit, though, right? 0.99

01:12:36.000 Oh, yeah. 0.99

01:12:37.000 Jessica stepped on a needle at the playground the other day.

01:12:40.000 I'm not MAGA or anything, though.

01:12:42.000 I'm not MAGA or anything, but have you been downtown lately?

01:12:45.000 Looks like an episode of The Walking Dead.

01:12:48.000 Not that I'm MAGA or anything, though.

01:12:50.000 Spencer Pratt seems like he has some good ideas.

01:12:53.000 Not that I'm MAGA or anything.

01:12:54.000 He does seem really angry all the time, though.

01:12:56.000 Well, they did burn his house down.

01:13:02.000 Also, apparently, he's staying at the Bel Air Hotel, not the trailer on his property.

01:13:06.000 Well, yeah.

01:13:08.000 They burned his house down.

01:13:10.000 Okay, we're all adults here.

01:13:12.000 How about on three, we just say who we're voting for?

01:13:15.000 One, two, three.

01:13:16.000 Spencer Pratt.

01:13:17.000 Yeah.

01:13:19.000 Spencer Pratt.

01:13:20.000 Spencer Pratt. 0.87

01:13:24.000 Can you imagine if our wives knew?

01:13:29.000 We're all voting for Spencer Pratt, right?

01:13:32.000 Of course.

01:13:33.000 Obviously.

01:13:34.000 I wish I could vote like yesterday.

01:13:37.000 Yeah.

01:13:37.000 So that ad I thought was just so brilliant.

01:13:41.000 You know, I just thought it's so good.

01:13:43.000 And he's had so many of these, and all of them seem to go like mega viral.

01:13:47.000 Like the one where Karen Bass was Darth Vader.

01:13:51.000 And they just go around the, you know, they go around showing how terrible things have gotten for just regular people.

01:13:58.000 Yeah, I wanted to say that about what he was saying about why he got a gun and why he became a Republican.

01:14:03.000 Is this sort of aligns with what I was saying earlier about dudes that went and fought in World War II and that have put their lives on the line?

01:14:08.000 And when you see fear and terror for real, if you think someone is breaking into your house for the first time for real, you wish you had a gun and you wish you were trained.

01:14:19.000 So.

01:14:20.000 It's, and it doesn't make you a Republican.

01:14:23.000 It's just like dudes that were leftists in the 1940s would be considered far right today.

01:14:29.000 Like they were, everybody was like ready to protect themselves back in the day.

01:14:33.000 It was a huge part of the ethos, you know?

01:14:35.000 My dad had like 14 guns growing up, he was a hunter.

01:14:38.000 Then he sold a bunch and bought guitars.

01:14:40.000 But I think it's just like it's more of a, you become a realist when you're faced with danger.

01:14:48.000 And things like houses burning down and entire neighborhoods getting wiped out by fire.

01:14:52.000 Um, people, street violence, things like that.

01:14:55.000 You have to become real, realist.

01:14:57.000 And this guy sounds, I think you mentioned earlier, very real.

01:14:59.000 He does, he's very real.

01:15:00.000 Yeah, he's sincere.

01:15:02.000 And you kind of want like somebody like this in all of our big cities.

01:15:07.000 He's he's he's just a tad unpolished, which makes him so perfect.

01:15:13.000 Which I think is okay.

01:15:14.000 I mean, so good.

01:15:15.000 No, it's perfect.

01:15:16.000 Yeah, it would be worse.

01:15:17.000 It would be so bad if he was a Gavin Newsom type and sounded perfect.

01:15:20.000 Gavin Newsom is a shape shifting chameleon pretzel man.

01:15:24.000 Is it the trust? 0.76

01:15:25.000 Is he horrible?

01:15:26.000 Has he lived in isolation for too long?

01:15:28.000 Was he always like this?

01:15:28.000 Because I didn't really know who he was until he was governor.

01:15:30.000 But did he grow up rich?

01:15:33.000 He had sort of an interesting background.

01:15:35.000 His parents split up when he was young.

01:15:37.000 His dad ran for Senate and I think lost, and also worked for the Getty family and the Getty Foundation.

01:15:44.000 So Newsom grew up in the shadow of wealth with a fair amount of privilege.

01:15:50.000 And yeah, I mean, by the time he was like, what, out of college or whatever, he was opening a fancy wine shop with some prep school types.

01:15:57.000 It's part of the problem is rich kids get.

01:16:00.000 Great education, and they learn how to run businesses.

01:16:02.000 And, like, they don't learn how to run businesses. 0.80

01:16:04.000 They're supposed to, like, white collar.

01:16:06.000 If they get to go to prep schools, they'll be taught how to open a bank account, how to file an LLC, maybe.

01:16:11.000 I didn't even know how to write a check in the 80s and 90s.

01:16:15.000 I was never taught how to write a check.

01:16:16.000 I didn't know how to do it because I was a poor kid.

01:16:19.000 I was like a middle, lower class, average, regular dude.

01:16:22.000 I don't know. 0.99

01:16:23.000 I went to prep school and I didn't learn shit. 0.98

01:16:24.000 I wasn't bred for running companies and being a politician and all that. 0.98

01:16:28.000 So when you see people that come from, I don't know if Spencer Pratt's lower class, middle, lower class, but.

01:16:32.000 He was on reality TV.

01:16:34.000 He made his mark through a reality TV show.

01:16:36.000 I don't know if he came from money.

01:16:37.000 Are you familiar with his background?

01:16:38.000 I don't know.

01:16:39.000 It's just, it kind of breeds realism when you're from down hard times growing up, when you don't get stuff handed to you and you have to work for it from the age of 12.

01:16:46.000 If he gets in, do you think he'll actually be able to make any real change out there?

01:16:50.000 I like this thing about cops having a cop.

01:16:51.000 No, I think it's all great.

01:16:52.000 I just don't know if anyone can actually make an impact anymore in politics.

01:16:56.000 I wonder about that too, right?

01:16:58.000 I mean, the hardening schools, which is what they call it when you put a cop at schools in New York City, like when my son was in middle school there, there were cops at every entrance.

01:17:08.000 You couldn't get in.

01:17:08.000 Even as a parent, you couldn't get in.

01:17:10.000 You had to go through the police.

01:17:11.000 And I liked that.

01:17:13.000 About it, and we didn't have guns in the schools there.

01:17:17.000 Sure, there were metal detectors, but it's like, yeah, it's keeping guns out of the schools.

01:17:20.000 And we have this idea, I think, in America that we should behave as though we have a high trust society when we don't have that anymore.

01:17:28.000 Yeah, what was this recent?

01:17:30.000 Oh, something happened, and they're like, but it happened at a gun free zone.

01:17:34.000 It's like, just it's just tried and right old trope of like, how could these shootings happen?

01:17:39.000 We put the sign on the wall, it said no guns, right?

01:17:42.000 Like, what if it's real, man?

01:17:43.000 You need to protect the kids through force.

01:17:46.000 I mean, the force.

01:17:46.000 Yeah.

01:17:48.000 Compared to Spencer Pratt, Mamdani is just such a horrific joke, you know?

01:17:53.000 And you look at that and you look at what Mamdani wants to do, which is he wants the government to raise your kids, starting with two year olds in the pre K, like the 2K program.

01:18:05.000 He wants you to live in government housing because he wants to seize private property and turn it into government housing.

01:18:10.000 And then you're paying rent to the government.

01:18:12.000 He was complaining about how the federal government is saying that if you're on food stamps, you should get a job.

01:18:16.000 And he was like, well, if the government wants you to get a job, then the government should make More jobs.

01:18:21.000 His vision for America is to have everyone working for the government, their kids being raised by the government, living in homes by the government, shopping in grocery stores owned by the government.

01:18:31.000 There's just no liberty there.

01:18:32.000 And when you look at this idea from Pratt, like one of the crazy ideas he had about fire prevention was, you know, obviously his house burned down and he's mad about that. 0.95

01:18:41.000 And on the debate stage, he even said to Karen Bass, like, you're a liar.

01:18:45.000 You burned down my house and my family's house and my friends' houses. 0.94

01:18:48.000 Like, this is what you've done.

01:18:50.000 But one idea he had was a sort of network of everybody's.

01:18:53.000 Pools so that helicopters could go in, scoop up water from pools, know where the pools were, and do that.

01:19:00.000 And that's a community approach, not like taking government and slamming it on top of everybody, but everybody teaming up, being like, you know, government is here to serve us.

01:19:11.000 What can we do for our country and our community?

01:19:13.000 We can share the water in our pools.

01:19:15.000 I actually like that because he's actually focusing on the locale, what LA needs.

01:19:19.000 He's focusing on fire preservation.

01:19:20.000 Yes, he's focusing on, yeah, exactly.

01:19:23.000 He's focusing on the little things that LA needs.

01:19:25.000 Not like these giant overarching principles that are designed to crush everybody.

01:19:29.000 I've been in Manhattan a lot recently and it is not a city feeling.

01:19:34.000 It's totally different than it was.

01:19:36.000 Totally different.

01:19:36.000 My grandfather was a cop in this city in the 70s and I heard all his stories after he came back from the Korean War.

01:19:42.000 He became a cop.

01:19:43.000 And in the 70s, the city was on fire and there was a lot of dead bodies and there was a lot of crime.

01:19:48.000 The Bronx was burning for the insurance money.

01:19:50.000 Yeah, the subways now kind of feel like those stories.

01:19:54.000 And I was just walking around.

01:19:56.000 I love that city.

01:19:57.000 I love Manhattan, but it is.

01:20:00.000 Of the Wild West again. 1.00

01:20:01.000 And I noticed how, you know, it was once all of the Ghanans and Chinese people selling fake Rolexes. 1.00

01:20:08.000 That was an interesting shift to see on the streets. 1.00

01:20:08.000 It's now all Haitians. 1.00

01:20:11.000 But like the amount of feces on the subway, there's a lot of poop. 1.00

01:20:15.000 It reminded me of what you hear in San Francisco.

01:20:17.000 Yeah.

01:20:18.000 And, you know, I grew up in and out of the city and grew up like just north of it.

01:20:22.000 And of course, there's always been moments of intense violence and you're running for your life sometimes and get involved in some trouble.

01:20:29.000 But man, it felt like extremely lawless the past few times I've been there.

01:20:32.000 Yeah, I remember there was a moment, like sort of in COVID, there was a moment that I felt a distinct shift.

01:20:38.000 Like, I remember in February of 2020, I had been out with friends and I'd probably had a little too much to drink.

01:20:45.000 And I took the subway home and I fell asleep on the subway.

01:20:48.000 In there?

01:20:48.000 And I woke up, a homeless person woke me up and said, Miss, miss, don't miss your stop.

01:20:54.000 And he was the homeless person that lived at my subway station.

01:20:57.000 Okay, thanks, sir.

01:20:58.000 Like, I appreciate it.

01:20:59.000 You know, thank you.

01:21:00.000 Next time I saw him, I gave him five bucks, whatever.

01:21:03.000 And I got, I went home, no big deal.

01:21:05.000 And it was probably that summer.

01:21:08.000 I remembered being on the.

01:21:11.000 Oh, I was going, whatever it was, it was later.

01:21:15.000 I was going to a party on 4th Street.

01:21:19.000 And I remember standing there, like just waiting to, you know, like walk over and go in.

01:21:25.000 And it felt like the power dynamic in the street had distinctly shifted.

01:21:30.000 And I was the prey.

01:21:32.000 And the homeless people were dangerous all of a sudden.

01:21:34.000 And they hadn't been somehow.

01:21:37.000 Previously, like things had changed to the point where, yeah, things had changed to where the point was like I was freaked out.

01:21:44.000 And I remember distinctly, I went to the event, I think it was a magazine party.

01:21:49.000 I went to the event and I took a cab home, and that was 60 bucks.

01:21:53.000 I think the drugs changing into more like fentanyl has definitely shifted the attitudes of the homeless.

01:21:58.000 I mean, I think we've all run from homeless people on Sixth Street in Austin.

01:22:01.000 Sure.

01:22:03.000 It's like the guy with the giant boa constrictor on Sixth Street is not the most dangerous thing.

01:22:07.000 I just shook a guy's hand on Sixth Street.

01:22:09.000 I've taken the complete opposite approach.

01:22:11.000 I love Sixth Street.

01:22:12.000 I love Sixth Street.

01:22:12.000 But it is.

01:22:13.000 Dude, I've seen the homeless chase those women on bachelorette parties with the bikes and they're drinking beer. 1.00

01:22:19.000 But what are those women doing? 1.00

01:22:20.000 I mean, come on. 1.00

01:22:21.000 Yeah, right.

01:22:21.000 Like, why are they taking those women down Sixth Street?

01:22:23.000 So you think that the fentanyl makes them. 0.88

01:22:25.000 I don't know a lot about the chemistry, but it makes them more aggressive than crack?

01:22:29.000 It's just a different thing, I think.

01:22:31.000 Crack's not good either.

01:22:32.000 I'm just saying.

01:22:33.000 And I don't know if it's fentanyl or not, because fentanyl kind of makes people lean and turn into zombies.

01:22:37.000 But whatever they were taking, what I've seen in Austin, what I've seen in Manhattan recently, it's there's.

01:22:42.000 They're certainly on drugs and they're certainly more aggressive.

01:22:44.000 Is there more homeless people too?

01:22:46.000 It seemed like there were more homeless people for sure in Manhattan.

01:22:46.000 You have a better answer.

01:22:50.000 I couldn't believe the subways.

01:22:52.000 It's not like it's always been clean.

01:22:53.000 I've never seen poop on a New York subway.

01:22:54.000 I've been there for six years.

01:22:56.000 I remember going to get, with my wife, to get a sonogram when she was pregnant, right?

01:23:00.000 For our first. 0.97

01:23:01.000 And a guy came on the train and was like, I'm going to chop your head off. 0.99

01:23:04.000 It's just normal, though. 0.99

01:23:04.000 It's just like, oh, it's fine. 0.99

01:23:05.000 I didn't risk for the all that threatened.

01:23:06.000 I could take them.

01:23:07.000 It's all good.

01:23:07.000 We got this.

01:23:08.000 But the shift, there's a shift, like you're saying.

01:23:10.000 It felt different.

01:23:11.000 Where everyone's now the prey.

01:23:13.000 Yeah.

01:23:14.000 And you feel like, The authorities aren't really going to do much.

01:23:16.000 You're kind of looking the other way, which reminded me of when I was in Yuma, looking at them looking the other way from people crossing the border illegally.

01:23:22.000 So, I have this one last story that I want to share with you guys a little point of pride.

01:23:26.000 We have this out from the post millennial, but it's actually about human events breaking.

01:23:31.000 President Trump endorses human events.

01:23:33.000 Kenny Cody for Tennessee House is a MAGA warrior.

01:23:36.000 And I would like to say, congratulations, Mr. Kenny Cody.

01:23:40.000 He's terrific to work with.

01:23:41.000 He's our opinion editor at Human Events.

01:23:43.000 He is running for office for Tennessee's 11th State House District.

01:23:49.000 You know, I don't know much about Tennessee's 11th, but I do know a lot about Kenny, and I think he is a terrific guy.

01:23:55.000 And here is what the president had to say.

01:23:58.000 It is my great honor to endorse MAGA warrior Kenny Cody, who is running to represent the fantastic people of Tennessee's 11th State House District.

01:24:08.000 A very successful school teacher, civic leader, conservative journalist, and activist, Kenny has dedicated his life to serving his community.

01:24:15.000 In the State House, he will fight tirelessly to promote East Tennessee's mountain values, grow the economy, cut taxes and regulations, advance Made in the USA, champion American energy dominance.

01:24:25.000 Stop migrant crime, strengthen our military veterans, promote school choice, safeguard our elections, and defend our always under siege Second Amendment.

01:24:33.000 So that's terrific. 1.00

01:24:36.000 Kenny is a great guy.

01:24:37.000 He's also a high school history teacher, which is cool.

01:24:41.000 And I really appreciate him giving back, and I appreciate the president taking notice.

01:24:45.000 Double, double everything you just said.

01:24:48.000 I've known Kenny for a while.

01:24:50.000 I met him off of X, and I ran into him at Trump's victory party in 2024.

01:24:56.000 And he is one of the most Sincere people, Kenny.

01:24:59.000 I told you I'd support you, and I totally forgot.

01:25:01.000 I literally just made a donation on your website.

01:25:03.000 So hopefully, we can get you across the finish line.

01:25:06.000 He is incredible.

01:25:07.000 He's a very good man.

01:25:08.000 What's the website?

01:25:10.000 Hold on.

01:25:11.000 I just did a Kenny Cody for Tennessee House.

01:25:15.000 No, votekennycody.com.

01:25:18.000 Here's what Kenny had to say about it.

01:25:20.000 I am so honored to say that our campaign has now been endorsed by the President of the United States, Donald J. Trump.

01:25:26.000 Mr. President, it is the honor of a lifetime to have you endorse me in our race.

01:25:29.000 I've been a loyal supporter of President Trump for nearly a decade now, and I plan on continuing to be if you send me to Nashville as your next state representative.

01:25:37.000 History teacher.

01:25:38.000 He's a history teacher.

01:25:39.000 Does he know about the history of communism?

01:25:42.000 Yeah, he's really good.

01:25:42.000 Is he well studied?

01:25:44.000 He's us.

01:25:44.000 He's one of us.

01:25:45.000 He loves this country.

01:25:46.000 He's one of us.

01:25:47.000 Dude, history is so important.

01:25:49.000 I don't know if you guys go crazy for it, but I'm kind of obsessed with learning about the faults and the failures of the human past.

01:25:56.000 You have to.

01:25:57.000 And putting yourself into the minds of a Roman soldier walking up the hill, getting ready to get through.

01:26:02.000 A spear thrust into your gut, like every moment, like what these guys are.

01:26:06.000 Yeah, no, I'm sorry. 0.72

01:26:07.000 What's that?

01:26:07.000 No, keep going.

01:26:08.000 I finished my thought.

01:26:09.000 Oh, we wanted to hear the more of the guts spilling out.

01:26:12.000 It was brutal.

01:26:13.000 I fell on my knees and I wished for my mother and my daughter and my wife, and I just remembered Rome.

01:26:20.000 Viva Rome.

01:26:21.000 I think it's important when you read history to read old history.

01:26:24.000 Like, I don't mean old in terms of when the events happened, I mean old in terms of when it was written.

01:26:31.000 Like, recent history, I think, is so fabricated and overwrought to.

01:26:37.000 Make all of America just seem racist and terrible and the biggest evil that ever existed.

01:26:42.000 So, I like to read history that has been written like, you know, pre 80s kind of thing.

01:26:48.000 I agree with you.

01:26:49.000 You have to also keep in mind how everyone is ideologically driven throughout human history.

01:26:54.000 So, like Jeremy Ryan Slate, we've had him on the show a few times.

01:26:54.000 Right.

01:26:56.000 He's been on my show a bunch.

01:26:57.000 He's the Rome guy.

01:26:59.000 And we talk about how, like, even things like Hannibal taking elephants, you know, to fight the Romans, that might not be real because the Romans like to do this thing where they're writing.

01:27:08.000 About their enemies in ways that make them look stronger and crazier, you know?

01:27:12.000 Because there was no written history from Carthage or in Gaul.

01:27:15.000 The closer you get to the original documentation, like there's a guy, author named Frank DeCotter, that has just recently, as soon as the Chinese records of what actually happened, what they'll let you know happened, like firsthand accounts of the Great Leap Forward came out, he was able to get a hold of them.

01:27:35.000 And he just kind of straightforward, factual, What happened?

01:27:39.000 There's no opinion, really.

01:27:40.000 I mean, any normal person wouldn't have.

01:27:43.000 It's so crazy, too, watching history change.

01:27:46.000 I remember the Tiananmen Square massacre.

01:27:50.000 I remember like watching it happen on TV.

01:27:52.000 And now it turns out that if you grow up in China, you don't even know about it. 0.76

01:27:56.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:27:57.000 I censor entire history.

01:27:57.000 Yeah.

01:27:58.000 Yeah.

01:27:59.000 I get wicked concerned about people telling us that the fake history, fake history, like what a powerful ability.

01:28:07.000 If you had total control of the human narrative, would you fake any of history to get people to do what you want? 0.75

01:28:12.000 So North Korea does. 0.62

01:28:13.000 They have fake America's bad history, like propaganda all over their country, like saying that we did all these horrible things.

01:28:20.000 So they all hate us.

01:28:21.000 Maybe this.

01:28:22.000 Kenny, Kenny, what's his last name?

01:28:23.000 Cody.

01:28:24.000 You guys know him real well, but maybe Kenny Cody could come on the show someday.

01:28:24.000 Cody.

01:28:27.000 He would be great.

01:28:28.000 He would be very entertaining.

01:28:30.000 Yeah, he should totally be on.

01:28:32.000 Ask him about history.

01:28:33.000 Yeah.

01:28:34.000 He would be a great person to have on the show.

01:28:37.000 Yeah.

01:28:37.000 I totally think that's great.

01:28:39.000 What other history is fake?

01:28:40.000 All of it.

01:28:41.000 All of it.

01:28:43.000 Sorry.

01:28:44.000 You have to just assume most of it is fake to some degree.

01:28:44.000 What about like.

01:28:48.000 Depending on who won the war, if you think they even won the war, you know, who they absorbed.

01:28:52.000 What about if there even was a war? 0.63

01:28:54.000 Remember that Evil and Wah book scoop?

01:28:56.000 When the journalist shows up in the war zone and he's like, I'm here to report on the war.

01:29:00.000 And they're like, Yeah, we're just making it up.

01:29:01.000 There's not really a lot.

01:29:03.000 I've heard this theory that Charlemagne, who you guys were talking about earlier, Charlie, where the word Charles comes from means, what does it mean?

01:29:09.000 Free man.

01:29:10.000 Free man comes from Charlemagne, Charles, King Charles, was all made up by the Holy Roman Empire, by the Roman Emperor to create a Holy Roman Empire that has always been, never question it, the year is 1000 AD.

01:29:20.000 This great man had unified it for you.

01:29:22.000 And now the land is ours under this king that, and that it was all just, Crafted story, which is bizarre.

01:29:30.000 I don't know.

01:29:30.000 I don't know if it's true or not.

01:29:31.000 I don't know how to.

01:29:32.000 I think Americans also have a real obsession with authenticity.

01:29:36.000 You know, I think that as a people, one of the things that characterizes us is that we're always trying to dig down to the bottom and find the real seed of everything.

01:29:44.000 Whereas I think other cultures, like French culture, is happy to absorb and tell the stories in sort of a more skipping along the surface kind of way.

01:29:55.000 Does that go back to the Greeks?

01:29:56.000 Was that a Greek thing too to get to the root of truth?

01:30:00.000 I don't know.

01:30:01.000 I think, I mean, I think probably there's stuff like that in all of the, you know, cultures or whatever.

01:30:07.000 But I think that with Americans, I think we are obsessed with authenticity.

01:30:10.000 Part of it is because we've become somewhat invincible because of free speech.

01:30:14.000 So it's like if you're wrong, it's okay.

01:30:16.000 It doesn't undermine your entire society.

01:30:18.000 Yeah.

01:30:19.000 I mean, I believe in objective truth, but you can look at, like, I wrote a story once about it.

01:30:23.000 I knew a guy who was fixing a wall on a cemetery in West Point, New York, and accidentally hit a casket that popped up out of the ground.

01:30:31.000 And it was the casket of a lady named Margaret Corbin, who was a Revolutionary War hero from our area, New York.

01:30:36.000 It's wild.

01:30:37.000 And so while the casket popped up, they were like, I guess we should study the bones.

01:30:42.000 And it turned out, you know, they have a giant plaque for her.

01:30:44.000 She's got great real estate in the cemetery right on the road.

01:30:47.000 And it turned out to be like a guy.

01:30:49.000 The skeleton was a man from like the 1900s, early 1900s.

01:30:52.000 And so I was writing the story about it, trying to find the truth.

01:30:55.000 But you see how they manufactured a myth.

01:30:57.000 So we're obsessed with authenticity, but we're also obsessed with myth.

01:31:00.000 Right.

01:31:01.000 And Margaret, I think, Is a myth, even though you can see there's gas stations named after her in Jersey.

01:31:07.000 Everyone has their own Margaret Corbin or Molly Corbin.

01:31:09.000 And I'm watching going through the records at the historian's office from when they initially interred her there.

01:31:17.000 That the daughters of the American Revolution, a local church, and West Point were all constructing through letters I was reading her history.

01:31:25.000 So, like, they were like, Is she from Ireland or was she from Pennsylvania?

01:31:28.000 And like, Well, let's just agree on this.

01:31:29.000 So, we have this whole thing, and there's like an economy around Margaret Corbin to some degree, but a lot of it is fake.

01:31:36.000 Yeah, I think.

01:31:37.000 I think that I'm obsessed with myth.

01:31:40.000 I mean, Atlantis is my favorite story of all time, but that's why, but I'm also obsessed with truth.

01:31:45.000 And that's why the COVID thing was so bitter for me as an American.

01:31:49.000 I'm so used to figuring out what's real so that we can move forward in a healthy manner.

01:31:54.000 That when they would say things that turned out not to be true about this, and it's like they were creating fake history in real time.

01:32:01.000 And it was so, the rest of the world almost seemed to just be bowing down and playing along.

01:32:05.000 And maybe there's because their governments were built to do that.

01:32:08.000 But we have this glorious opportunity to speak up and to demand and just smash the ideology to get to the root of it.

01:32:17.000 What do you think about myths and legends being as essential as anything true?

01:32:22.000 I think it's really important.

01:32:23.000 Like, my favorite myth that I've obviously passed on to my children is the moon landing.

01:32:28.000 Okay.

01:32:30.000 I'm kidding.

01:32:30.000 Wait, wait, wait.

01:32:32.000 My mom gets really fascinated about this.

01:32:34.000 I hope you're being serious.

01:32:35.000 I hope you're being serious.

01:32:36.000 Don't they have the reflectors on the moon that you can see?

01:32:39.000 That's propaganda from Big Moon. 1.00

01:32:40.000 Don't believe that crap. 0.99

01:32:41.000 Alex Jones said that it's an astronaut graveyard he reflects. 1.00

01:32:44.000 Alex believes there is a moon.

01:32:45.000 Do you think that astronauts got?

01:32:47.000 Launched there over and over, and I think something's up there, but what about NASA saying they're about to build this moon base? 0.72

01:32:53.000 NASA is a Satanist operation, it was started by Nazis, literally started by Nazis and meth heads. 0.68

01:32:59.000 And like Jack Parsons, who was a demon worshiper, yes, it was started by Satanists, yes, Jack Parsons, and at the jet engine, yes. 0.69

01:33:07.000 The co founder of JPL was literally worshiping demons with Crowley.

01:33:11.000 So, was and we hired Werner von Braun after World War II, who made the V 2 rockets, to start NASA.

01:33:16.000 Is that because they are a Satan worshiping organization?

01:33:19.000 Were they secular or were they? 0.99

01:33:22.000 No, they were meth heads worshiping demons. 0.98

01:33:24.000 That's why we still name rockets after demons.

01:33:25.000 Order of the Thalema, whatever.

01:33:27.000 Yeah, I forget.

01:33:28.000 Like, Crowley was talking to demons and stuff.

01:33:29.000 And that NASA still does rocket launches on like anniversaries of Crowley talking to demons.

01:33:34.000 And those rockets are named after Egyptian gods of chaos.

01:33:37.000 The Beatles were like close with Crowley.

01:33:41.000 Who are the Beatles close with Crowley?

01:33:43.000 Like, I don't, that's so weird.

01:33:44.000 Like, why would you want to be a Scientology guy?

01:33:47.000 Well, Scientology has its own thing.

01:33:48.000 What was up with Crowley?

01:33:50.000 What was his thing? 0.62

01:33:51.000 So the British journalists are the British. 1.00

01:33:54.000 Press called him the wickedest man in the world, but he was an overt demon worshiper, did tons of drugs, had these like sex spell orgies. 0.98

01:34:03.000 Uh, but he really influenced uh, music, and there are all these songs. 0.99

01:34:09.000 Uh, Black Sabbath has a whole song, Mr. Crowley, it's dedicated to him.

01:34:12.000 Uh, on the Beatles, uh, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club, Lonely Hearts Club, Club Band, it's worth saying.

01:34:19.000 Uh, I know, uh, Alistair Crowley is on the cover, and there's a picture actually of them setting up the shot for it.

01:34:27.000 And Hitler is to the side. 0.61

01:34:29.000 Like they were going to try and put Hitler in.

01:34:31.000 It's a dark world.

01:34:32.000 There's a really cool, like, seven hour documentary on this that I think everyone should watch just out of interest.

01:34:37.000 It's called They Sold Their Souls for Rock and Roll.

01:34:39.000 And it's like some Christian pastor from the 90s is doing this, but it gets deep.

01:34:44.000 Like the Satanism stuff in Hollywood and the music industry is very deep.

01:34:47.000 Is this why they say sex, drugs, and rock and roll and they put them in a bucket?

01:34:50.000 So, okay, rock and roll, the name actually, the term was a term for sex when it came out.

01:34:59.000 They were, they viewed the music they were producing as sexual. 0.90

01:35:03.000 The Ramones, when they're piling in the backseat, generating steam, that's a song about having sex in the back of a car. 0.86

01:35:12.000 It was all part of the sexual revolution. 0.88

01:35:14.000 They were trying to break down all of our institutions, our norms, and.

01:35:17.000 That's a fun song, though.

01:35:18.000 Oh, it's a great song.

01:35:19.000 It used to be my wake up song every morning.

01:35:19.000 I listened to it.

01:35:21.000 And the demonology.

01:35:22.000 Blitzkrieg Bop.

01:35:23.000 Yes, yes, yes.

01:35:23.000 Yeah, Blitzkrieg Bop.

01:35:24.000 Along with breaking up the society's puritanical abhorrence of sexuality, was then the demonology, like, we're going to break up. 0.62

01:35:32.000 The obsessive with Christianity?

01:35:34.000 Was that why they were just being counterculture to be counterculture? 0.88

01:35:37.000 Yeah, well, I think there's probably a lot of reasons for it, but obviously, like breaking down sexual norms and rules around that. 0.98

01:35:44.000 Like Christians actually were the first ones to really make sex respectable and good. 0.93

01:35:51.000 We were the first ones to actually really come out and say, ah, actually, this whole homosexuality thing actually isn't good. 0.98

01:35:58.000 This should be within marriage.

01:36:01.000 And Christian teaching on sexuality is actually very beautiful. 0.99

01:36:04.000 You know, the disruption of the concubine system was probably a good thing. 1.00

01:36:07.000 You know, a man with his wife and his four concubines or whatever. 0.88

01:36:10.000 They really disrupted.

01:36:11.000 I mean, there's more slavery right now in the Middle East than there ever was during the transatlantic slave trade.

01:36:17.000 And there's also more domestic slavery in the United States than anyone is aware of at all.

01:36:21.000 You were talking earlier about those bracelets with the young girls being trafficked across the border.

01:36:26.000 Some of those bracelets say exactly where those girls are going to be trafficked to, and it's nowhere pretty. 0.52

01:36:30.000 I meant only that Christianity's adherence to monogamy kind of disrupts that vile. 0.97

01:36:37.000 I don't know if polygamy is vile.

01:36:38.000 I don't know. 0.97

01:36:39.000 Take your poison, whatever it is. 1.00

01:36:40.000 Well, polygamy is illegal, but polyamory is legal in places like Summerfield, Massachusetts. 1.00

01:36:48.000 Polyamory means having sex with a bunch of people. 0.50

01:36:49.000 Why do you know that? 0.99

01:36:50.000 That's so specific.

01:36:51.000 I know that because I grew up outside of Boston and we saw a story a couple years ago about how they were trying to say that polyamory was fine in Somerville, which is a very progressive town.

01:37:04.000 And their reasoning was that when you had a thrupple renting an apartment, the people who were part of the thrupple, if one of them, if the leaseholder died, the other members of the thrupple should get to keep the apartment because of polyamory.

01:37:20.000 Oh my God.

01:37:21.000 So.

01:37:21.000 Yeah, I mean, it was at Postmillennial, we tend to cover, like, I try to, I want to cover the weirdest stuff that's happening so that people know about it, you know?

01:37:32.000 And I feel like a lot of my job is to, like, bring the weirdest stuff to the top.

01:37:38.000 Like, this is what local leaders are emphasizing in Portland, in Somerville, in Los Angeles, you know?

01:37:45.000 Isn't polyamory just loving a bunch of different people? 0.70

01:37:49.000 No, it's polygamy, except not Mormon.

01:37:52.000 But not, you're not actually getting married, you're just.

01:37:54.000 I don't know. 0.99

01:37:55.000 Having sex with a bunch of people. 0.66

01:37:56.000 Well, they're trying to legalize it, right?

01:37:57.000 So polygamy was made illegal in the United States to protect women and girls from exploitation, right?

01:38:05.000 Seems reasonable, right? 1.00

01:38:05.000 Okay. 1.00

01:38:07.000 Especially when you have a Judeo Christian background and you say monogamy is the best form of family building blocks. 0.99

01:38:14.000 The difference is legal, right? 0.98

01:38:15.000 So polygamy is a legal institution.

01:38:19.000 Polyamory is just like, hey, we're just kind of dating.

01:38:22.000 Like a common law thing?

01:38:24.000 Unofficial or, you know, yeah.

01:38:26.000 Yeah, like common law.

01:38:27.000 I go on and on.

01:38:29.000 I just want to say, in terms of weird news, I would like to amplify this message happening right now in Japan.

01:38:35.000 Are you guys aware of the bear attacks and that Japan can't make enough robot wolves to fight the bears right now?

01:38:43.000 Really?

01:38:43.000 And they're even trying to make handheld robot wolves for Japanese school children right now.

01:38:49.000 Haven't there been bear worship in Japan?

01:38:51.000 Wasn't this part of their pagan religion, I believe, just worshipping bears?

01:38:56.000 I really do worry about that.

01:38:58.000 And the wolves have all gone extinct in Japan.

01:39:01.000 And they've sent the military in to fight the bears, but they don't have enough, I guess.

01:39:05.000 So they're building robot wolves and they have red glowing eyes.

01:39:08.000 They're really cool. 0.99

01:39:09.000 They should import some American wolves.

01:39:11.000 Like, we're bringing our wolves back. 0.61

01:39:13.000 A great export we should have.

01:39:15.000 Yeah, but then you got to worry about them if they get too big.

01:39:18.000 Well, then the robot wolves are better because you can shut those down.

01:39:20.000 Hopefully.

01:39:21.000 Well, yeah, ideally, right.

01:39:21.000 Ideally.

01:39:22.000 I don't know if you can shut down the robot wolves.

01:39:24.000 What about when the robot wolves meet, you know, OpenAI and then suddenly there's some sort of like vague sentence?

01:39:33.000 I'm actually worried about amplifying that message because there's also at the same time colossal biosciences is de extincting dire wolves, and I could see them eventually putting dire wolves in Japan to fight the bears.

01:39:43.000 Bears.

01:39:43.000 It would be crazy if they start de extincting massive sea monsters.

01:39:47.000 Well, they're working on the saber toothed tiger right now, the woolly mammoth, and the moa, which is like a giant bird.

01:39:53.000 And they just hatched an egg, an artificial egg.

01:39:56.000 Bad idea.

01:39:57.000 All of them are bad ideas.

01:39:58.000 Sure.

01:39:58.000 They're all bad ideas, but really bad.

01:40:00.000 Not if you can ride one.

01:40:01.000 Bird that can, like, dive down and just start picking up our children out of the backyard.

01:40:01.000 No.

01:40:07.000 Would you rather fight, like, giant rabid dire wolves or robot wolves?

01:40:12.000 Rabbit wolves?

01:40:14.000 No, I said rabid.

01:40:14.000 Rabbit wolves?

01:40:15.000 But I'm down for either.

01:40:17.000 Because I think a rabbit wolf could be a good pick.

01:40:20.000 It's like a new creature.

01:40:21.000 Dump super high.

01:40:22.000 Yeah, a rabbit wolf.

01:40:24.000 I'm against all of it.

01:40:24.000 I'm against all of them.

01:40:25.000 But you have to pick one of the organic ones.

01:40:28.000 You don't have to, but I'm asking you, please.

01:40:30.000 If I have to pick one of the organic ones, you'd rather kill the animals than the robots?

01:40:33.000 Yeah.

01:40:34.000 I want to work with them.

01:40:35.000 If I have to fight in that war, which I do imagine you can poison them, you can starve them.

01:40:35.000 Yeah.

01:40:40.000 The robots are going to have armor.

01:40:42.000 And they're going to have guns.

01:40:43.000 They're going to have, like, and they'll have better vision.

01:40:43.000 Yeah.

01:40:45.000 I mean, they'll have supernatural vision.

01:40:47.000 He tracked you.

01:40:48.000 Yeah, he tracked you.

01:40:49.000 I mean, what if we're in for it?

01:40:50.000 I get tired. 0.64

01:40:51.000 We have kamikaze dolphins now, and the Soviets are taping hypodermic needles of poison on dolphin noses, strokes with lasers.

01:40:58.000 Yeah, here we have the best kamikaze dolphins.

01:41:00.000 The best.

01:41:01.000 According to Marco Rubio, I think we have the best in the world.

01:41:04.000 It's bad, but we shouldn't be de extincting anything, is what I want to make sure everyone understands.

01:41:04.000 I don't know.

01:41:08.000 What about the duck-billed platypus?

01:41:10.000 Isn't that extinct? 0.94

01:41:11.000 That is like a spawn of Satan.

01:41:14.000 We don't like it. 0.80

01:41:15.000 I think it's a leftover cryptid from like an ancient technologically advanced civilization.

01:41:20.000 They're wet, left out, left over.

01:41:22.000 Why does that exist?

01:41:23.000 It's not extinct.

01:41:25.000 Did you guys hear about the giant pigs in Japan?

01:41:29.000 No.

01:41:29.000 So in Fukushima, right, where they had the nuclear meltdown.

01:41:33.000 Wait, I think they had the nuclear meltdown. 0.78

01:41:34.000 They didn't have like a robot trying to ignore the pigs.

01:41:37.000 No, they had a nuclear meltdown in Fukushima because of the earthquake and the tsunami, and then they evacuated the area.

01:41:42.000 But there was farmland in that area, and so they just left their pigs, and the pigs escaped and have been wandering around, as you would if you're a pig trapped in a nuclear wasteland.

01:41:53.000 And they have been.

01:41:54.000 Mating with the wild boars.

01:41:57.000 But the thing is that wild boars can have baby pigs like once a year, but domestic pigs can have piglet babies all the time.

01:42:08.000 So, through the maternal line, what has happened is now the boars can reproduce constantly all year and they are turning into giant pig boars.

01:42:19.000 I'm just glad this isn't like a Godzilla thing, right?

01:42:21.000 Like, I thought you were going to say that.

01:42:22.000 Yes, right.

01:42:23.000 Because you know, in Chernobyl, there's actually cancer resistant wolves now.

01:42:28.000 From the effects of Chernobyl.

01:42:30.000 Yeah.

01:42:31.000 Those are cool too.

01:42:32.000 We should use those in Japan. 0.99

01:42:33.000 We basically owe the Japanese a defensive pact at this phase if they need help against it. 1.00

01:42:40.000 Yeah, we will drop an atom bomb on your bears. 1.00

01:42:42.000 Yeah, get the helicopters. 0.95

01:42:43.000 We need Blackhawks over there patrolling these bears.

01:42:46.000 We need to protect these bears.

01:42:46.000 Or we could just pick up the bears and put them somewhere else.

01:42:48.000 They have not very much land and we have a little.

01:42:50.000 They were like in the water.

01:42:51.000 Now they swim to shore.

01:42:52.000 Well, I mean, there was this book by Kobo Abe called Secret Rendezvous where it turns out in the book, it's fiction, Kobo Abe is.

01:43:01.000 Actually, spectacular if you guys are interested in reading some wacky Japanese fiction, which I like so much better.

01:43:07.000 Like, anyway, that's a different story. 0.60

01:43:09.000 But anyway, Kobo Abe had this story, Secret Rendezvous, about how the government is breeding human beings that can survive underwater.

01:43:22.000 I believe it.

01:43:23.000 So that when, you know, when Japan floods, they're all still fine.

01:43:27.000 Yeah, they actually have, they developed this about 15 years ago, an injection where you can inject, oh God, what is it, into the body, into the bloodstream, and then it makes it so you're.

01:43:35.000 Your oxygen, your body carries oxygen.

01:43:37.000 Like, you only have to breathe once every 10 minutes.

01:43:39.000 This is like 15 year old tech, too.

01:43:41.000 Is that my point?

01:43:41.000 Aren't these these?

01:43:42.000 No, I don't think so. 1.00

01:43:43.000 Aren't these these like Polynesians who can go fishing? 0.99

01:43:46.000 That's because of evolution. 0.91

01:43:48.000 Evolutionarily, they swim and they hunt underwater so they could go underwater for eight minutes, six minutes at a time and hold their breath.

01:43:53.000 And now they're building technology on top of that.

01:43:55.000 It can let your common man hold his breath.

01:43:58.000 I don't know if it helps you run a lot longer or what.

01:44:00.000 Man, I should find that story.

01:44:01.000 I haven't heard much about it.

01:44:02.000 I've been teaching it.

01:44:03.000 I've been teaching methylene blue every morning and it is the best.

01:44:06.000 Your tongue is blue.

01:44:07.000 It sounds weird and creepy.

01:44:09.000 It is, but RFK Jr. was promoting it.

01:44:12.000 Sure.

01:44:12.000 Essentially, it.

01:44:14.000 It was a dye that they would give you so that they could do better.

01:44:18.000 They could see your blood vessels and your scans and all that.

01:44:21.000 But what they found is that one of the unintended effects of it is that it allows your blood to carry more oxygen and it fights against cancer and it's a new thing.

01:44:30.000 It makes you less tired.

01:44:32.000 You're much less tired and you're much more energetic.

01:44:36.000 Bill McMorris and I have been just taking it every morning and I wouldn't be able to.

01:44:40.000 On the weekends, I don't take it and I'm like drained.

01:44:43.000 Alex Jones loves it.

01:44:44.000 It's great.

01:44:44.000 He talks about it all the time.

01:44:45.000 Undo the damage of.

01:44:45.000 Yeah.

01:44:47.000 Produced by seed oils, it might.

01:44:49.000 I was doing some deep research on it, and I think COVID also was causing the body's red blood cells to not be able to.

01:44:54.000 No, Brett Weinstein actually corrected me.

01:44:55.000 I used to think that they weren't able to transport oxygen as good because of the COVID.

01:44:58.000 They thought it was that you weren't getting enough oxygen to the lung, but it was because the transport mechanisms were being disturbed.

01:45:04.000 So that maybe it could help counter that.

01:45:05.000 I'm not sure exactly.

01:45:06.000 I'm not a doctor.

01:45:07.000 Don't, don't, the only side effects are you have a blue tongue for like the morning and then you pee blue.

01:45:13.000 And if you don't pee blue, that means there's something wrong in your system.

01:45:15.000 Are your eyes turning more blue?

01:45:17.000 No, no.

01:45:19.000 I've taken it once.

01:45:19.000 I did.

01:45:20.000 I just dripped it on my tongue. 0.99

01:45:21.000 I was like, damn. 0.99

01:45:22.000 Oh, it tastes terrible. 1.00

01:45:23.000 You got to water it down.

01:45:25.000 Oh, so it's bad tasting on top of everything else.

01:45:26.000 It's real strong.

01:45:28.000 It's potent.

01:45:29.000 It's weird.

01:45:30.000 I'm going to go see if I'm going to pee blue.

01:45:34.000 Okay.

01:45:35.000 Well, we are going to read some of your super chats and rumble rants.

01:45:42.000 But first, we're going to have a word from our sponsor.

01:45:51.000 Good steak, huh?

01:45:53.000 The Secretary of Agriculture publicly warned that America's consolidated meat supply is a threat to the country itself.

01:46:00.000 Just four companies control the majority of America's beef, and the largest is foreign owned.

01:46:07.000 It's not a conspiracy, my friends.

01:46:08.000 It's national food security.

01:46:09.000 Here's what most people don't realize a single pound of conventional grocery store ground beef can contain DNA from hundreds of different cattle.

01:47:23.000 I'm going to read the ones that are not mean and weird.

01:47:25.000 So, you know, just be aware of that.

01:47:28.000 This is from Sylvan Monk.

01:47:30.000 Breaking news.

01:47:31.000 Tomorrow is the last day to submit public comment for the FCC to apply harsher ratings for kids' shows pushing LGBTQ content. 0.95

01:47:41.000 I just found out about this, and the pro LGBTQ side is winning. 0.73

01:47:47.000 Yeah, I think that happens a lot when you have public comment period.

01:47:49.000 People don't even realize it.

01:47:51.000 They're not well publicized.

01:47:53.000 And Sylvan Monk goes on to say see the variety article.

01:47:56.000 Trump's FCC wants input on whether transgender and gender non binary TV programming is appropriate for children.

01:48:04.000 I don't know how you even ask that question.

01:48:05.000 Like, that seems like an obviously no, it's not.

01:48:09.000 We're not doing porn for kids.

01:48:10.000 We're not doing this.

01:48:11.000 Like, why would we do any of this weird stuff? 1.00

01:48:14.000 I think the whole LGBT stuff targeting kids is just so straight from the pits of hell. 1.00

01:48:19.000 Yeah.

01:48:20.000 We all grew up.

01:48:21.000 I mean, we're all millennials or late stage millennials, at least.

01:48:25.000 But we didn't have this stuff. 0.89

01:48:27.000 I didn't know a single trans kid.

01:48:28.000 I don't even think anyone in my class knew what trans was. 0.92

01:48:32.000 But all this is, I think ultimately it's, It's the result of the sexual revolution and separating sex from procreation and family. 0.99

01:48:42.000 Sex is now just a fun thing you do if you want to.

01:48:45.000 And now people aren't even having, like the teenage pregnancy rate is like plummeted, which is fine.

01:48:51.000 But that's not because kids, it's because kids aren't getting together, which is sad.

01:48:57.000 Yeah, which is sad.

01:48:58.000 Yeah.

01:48:58.000 I posted something the other day.

01:49:01.000 Somebody was complaining about something, and I said, you know, teen pregnancy used to be real trendy.

01:49:06.000 You know, yeah, yeah, I participate in that trend, very proud of that.

01:49:11.000 Yeah, that's actually my best kid.

01:49:12.000 I have is the one I got in high school.

01:49:15.000 I don't know, I hope she likes politics, but she's more into music.

01:49:21.000 She's gonna be a teacher, yeah. 0.93

01:49:23.000 You know, I have one child, I had him, you know, later in life, and I mean, I was married for like I don't know what like 12 years before I had a child, and like I'm kind of like, that was so dumb.

01:49:38.000 I should have had kids like when I was in my early 20s. 0.99

01:49:41.000 This eighth kid is kicking our ass. 0.99

01:49:45.000 It's like, it's not because he's number eight. 0.99

01:49:47.000 Like, actually, number eight is easier because you've got this, first of all, kids love hierarchies, they love enforcing the rules on the younger ones.

01:49:55.000 So, once you establish the family culture and the ecosystem, it self reinforces.

01:50:01.000 It's because I'm 39 and my wife's 40.

01:50:04.000 And we just don't have the energy that we did when we were in our early 20s.

01:50:09.000 No, and it seems, yeah.

01:50:10.000 I sometimes wish, like, oh, I should have had kids when I was like 23.

01:50:14.000 Yeah.

01:50:14.000 I was like, I wanted to wait till I was older to have more money and be more stable.

01:50:19.000 But then I was like, but now I want to be 80 with like a 60 year old kid and a 40 year old grandson and a 20 year old great grandson.

01:50:25.000 I'm 47 with no kids yet.

01:50:27.000 So, like, I'm going to be 100 with like a 60 year old kid, maybe, or a 50 year old kid.

01:50:32.000 I mean, if you're lucky, right?

01:50:33.000 That's if things work fast.

01:50:33.000 Yeah.

01:50:34.000 Like, I hope for grandkids.

01:50:36.000 And it's like, oh, I don't know.

01:50:38.000 Time could be running out.

01:50:39.000 No, you'll get great.

01:50:40.000 So, were you guys?

01:50:41.000 I missed the super chat, but are you saying people should loosen up and get banging?

01:50:44.000 Oh, we're all, yeah, I think we're always, I think we're always saying that.

01:50:46.000 But no, we're actually, we're getting beat by the public comments.

01:50:50.000 So, the FCC has put this regulation out there for public commentary that any children's programming that has LGBTQ content has to have a warning on it.

01:50:59.000 And so, the left is like flooding the zone on this and all the comments, and we're losing.

01:51:04.000 So, we got to get our people making these public comments. 0.59

01:51:07.000 Yeah, we got to go to the FCC site to make some public comments against LGBTQIA. 0.61

01:51:14.000 PH62 Spirit Plus. 0.99

01:51:21.000 You gotta go.

01:51:21.000 That's what it is now.

01:51:22.000 Yeah, that's what it is.

01:51:23.000 That's what it is now.

01:51:26.000 Dubious Prime something says so the old saying of think of the children is less about the children and more about pocketing resources for children that tracks.

01:51:36.000 Well, it certainly tracks in Minnesota and probably Washington State and California.

01:51:42.000 The Spencer Fencer says thousands of illegal children were found as slave labor on farm fields, literal plantation slavery all over again.

01:51:52.000 This is what real Democrat policy is.

01:51:55.000 That seems about right.

01:51:59.000 This one says from Real War Pig.

01:52:03.000 I fought in Fallujah, Ian.

01:52:06.000 Yeah.

01:52:06.000 So this one's direct.

01:52:07.000 Tell me about it.

01:52:08.000 I fought in Fallujah, Ian.

01:52:09.000 We did not just kick in doors and kill kids, dude.

01:52:13.000 Oh, is there more?

01:52:13.000 I didn't.

01:52:14.000 I don't know.

01:52:15.000 It says W asterisk, asterisk.

01:52:18.000 So I didn't say that that's all that they did.

01:52:21.000 And maybe you didn't.

01:52:22.000 But my friend said, and she said, we kicked doors in and kind of left it open, but talked about families being there and.

01:52:32.000 Doing a lot of horrible things to those people.

01:52:35.000 And that was, you know, it's anecdotal.

01:52:37.000 Not every troop went through that.

01:52:38.000 Everybody's experience is different.

01:52:40.000 And war is hell.

01:52:42.000 It is not, it was not part of God's plan. 0.99

01:52:45.000 It is, there's terrible shit that happens in war, and we all know it. 0.93

01:52:49.000 And I don't think, I don't think you say anything wrong. 0.99

01:52:51.000 The guy who said war is hell also, Sherman, General Sherman, who did the March of the Sea, also had people killing freed slaves.

01:52:58.000 You know, this is the Union killing freed slaves because they were upset with them following the March of the Sea.

01:53:04.000 And the Union general.

01:53:06.000 I don't know if he was a general, but the Union general in charge of that was also named Jefferson Davis, oddly enough.

01:53:12.000 Isn't that bizarre?

01:53:12.000 Yeah.

01:53:13.000 That is bizarre.

01:53:14.000 Jefferson Davis' wife wrote a really fascinating memoir.

01:53:18.000 It's like Memoirs of a Southern Belle.

01:53:20.000 And in it, she talks about how when they were just like, you know, part of the South, but it wasn't, you know, whatever, secessionist as yet, they would just go to parties in Washington.

01:53:32.000 She talks about like the whole social scene there.

01:53:35.000 And I think that's really interesting.

01:53:36.000 Yeah.

01:53:37.000 Sylvan Monk is really on about this FCC thing.

01:53:40.000 Public notice FCC Media Bureau seeks comment on TV rating system to empower parents.

01:53:46.000 Submit your public comments to support Docket 1941 by tomorrow night.

01:53:51.000 Make FCC TV ratings harsher for kids' shows pushing LGBTQ content. 0.98

01:53:59.000 So, everybody who's interested in that, or even if you're not, you should probably just get on that. 1.00

01:54:04.000 You'll make Sylvan Monk very happy.

01:54:06.000 Oh, this is an amazing one.

01:54:07.000 My son, Tobias Michael, was born yesterday morning.

01:54:10.000 We were blessed with an easy, natural home birth.

01:54:13.000 I can't wait to introduce him to our chickens.

01:54:15.000 Tobias, welcome.

01:54:17.000 Greater Bob.

01:54:18.000 Very brave to do a home birth, by the way.

01:54:20.000 Thank you, Greater Bob.

01:54:21.000 Our third was a home birth.

01:54:22.000 That was incredible.

01:54:22.000 Is it?

01:54:23.000 Yeah?

01:54:24.000 Yeah.

01:54:24.000 So good.

01:54:24.000 Was it like a water birth?

01:54:26.000 Yep.

01:54:26.000 So here's where I think it's kind of appealing I don't want to get so morbid, but it's actually a beautiful death.

01:54:32.000 My dad died about five years ago, and it was in our home.

01:54:36.000 He died in his bed, surrounded by all of his kids.

01:54:40.000 He's also 10 kids.

01:54:40.000 So he's surrounded by all 10 of his kids.

01:54:43.000 That's how he died.

01:54:44.000 So, like, that's.

01:54:45.000 Birth is.

01:54:45.000 Yeah.

01:54:46.000 Being in that room, I don't know if you guys have been in the room when someone dies, but it is, it's sacred.

01:54:53.000 It's quiet.

01:54:53.000 It reminds me, I've been in the delivery room eight times and it reminded me, it's like the opposite of that.

01:54:59.000 You're waiting and waiting and waiting until that moment and they rhyme.

01:55:05.000 That's for sure.

01:55:06.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:55:07.000 Birth and death rhyme.

01:55:08.000 Yeah.

01:55:09.000 Absolutely.

01:55:11.000 It's kind of, think about death.

01:55:11.000 Yeah.

01:55:13.000 I've been thinking a lot about death.

01:55:13.000 Yeah.

01:55:15.000 Yeah.

01:55:15.000 Memento more.

01:55:16.000 Dude, I got an actual shiver when you said that.

01:55:18.000 It wasn't like I got.

01:55:19.000 Goosebumps like from the bottom of my core, I just got a big, big yeah, yeah.

01:55:23.000 You were saying live a better life when you think about your death, and you call that memento mori.

01:55:27.000 You mentioned that, yes, the remembrance that you remember that you're going to die, you know, it's like the guy holding the skull.

01:55:34.000 But Hamlet, well, the saints used to keep skulls on their desks when they were writing.

01:55:39.000 Poor Yorick, I knew him well, I knew you'd know, yeah.

01:55:43.000 I think that was Horatio digging that up, wasn't it?

01:55:45.000 Or was it Hamlet himself?

01:55:46.000 No, that was Hamlet, yeah, Hamlet with the skull, digging up his buddy's skull.

01:55:49.000 Well, Yorick, Yorick was the court jester.

01:55:52.000 Is that right?

01:55:53.000 I think so.

01:55:54.000 Yeah.

01:55:54.000 I was in that play.

01:55:55.000 Yeah.

01:55:56.000 I was wondering how y'all knew so much about this. 0.94

01:55:56.000 Sick. 0.94

01:55:58.000 I've not well read a lot of Shakespeare. 0.98

01:56:01.000 Also fake, unfortunately.

01:56:02.000 Sorry, guys.

01:56:03.000 Shakespeare was a system of people.

01:56:04.000 I think it was a network, like Banksy.

01:56:06.000 Like Brecht.

01:56:07.000 I think Brecht was more of a system of people than Shakespeare.

01:56:10.000 I think when people talk about plays being a system of people, what they don't understand is how theatrical production works.

01:56:18.000 In a lot of ways, every play is a system of people because you have your draft, you bring it into your team of actors, your actors are.

01:56:25.000 Awesome, that's why they're your actors.

01:56:27.000 You bring it into the director, you do a read through.

01:56:29.000 Everyone's like, Oh, what if I did this?

01:56:31.000 What if I did this?

01:56:32.000 And then you're like, Yes, I will put that in.

01:56:34.000 And then the director says, What if they came in from over there instead of over there?

01:56:37.000 And there was a tree, and you're like, Yes, I will put that in.

01:56:40.000 So, every that I don't think that makes it fake that it's Shakespeare, I think that just makes it part of the way that that's just part of the theatrical tradition.

01:56:48.000 That's what Brecht did, too. 0.86

01:56:49.000 I heard that it was like a British royal that or a duke or something that wrote what Shakespeare, but the king or queen would have had him killed if they knew that he was writing, talking trash about. 0.95

01:57:00.000 The monarch, the monarchy.

01:57:01.000 So they had to use a pen name and they made up this character, William Shakespeare.

01:57:04.000 Yeah.

01:57:05.000 And I studied the guy and people were obsessed with him, but they still thought that that was possible.

01:57:08.000 Well, the plays are great.

01:57:09.000 Whoever wrote them.

01:57:10.000 Yeah.

01:57:11.000 That was my second play that I was ever in.

01:57:11.000 Twelfth Night.

01:57:13.000 Yeah.

01:57:13.000 I played Festy the Clown.

01:57:14.000 That was a good one.

01:57:16.000 I was not.

01:57:16.000 Come back onto the show as Festy the Clown.

01:57:18.000 He's like the wise fool. 0.99

01:57:19.000 I try to do that on this show. 1.00

01:57:20.000 Perfect.

01:57:21.000 I hope I'm pulling it off.

01:57:23.000 He's breaking the fourth wall so hard right now.

01:57:26.000 Okay.

01:57:27.000 I want to read some of these.

01:57:29.000 Are these the Rumble Rants?

01:57:30.000 Carter's telling us to read Rumble Rants.

01:57:32.000 Yeah.

01:57:33.000 But I didn't know where they were.

01:57:34.000 Sorry, guys.

01:57:36.000 The beautiful babies being born in Tim Cass tradition need to be reminded of the free $1,000 payments being given out on the Trump Accounts website.

01:57:45.000 There are also yearly Trump 401ks for low income people, never before.

01:57:49.000 I agree with you, Mr. Rumble Rant person. 0.68

01:57:52.000 What is your name? 0.99

01:57:53.000 Thinker for Life.

01:57:54.000 You're totally right about that.

01:57:54.000 Thinker for Life.

01:57:56.000 I think this is such a great initiative.

01:57:58.000 And the initiative where you can start a little fund for your kid and the government matches it $1,000, that's so great.

01:58:04.000 That is a good use of my tax dollars.

01:58:06.000 Very happy about that use of my tax dollars.

01:58:08.000 Also, the 401ks for people who have low income.

01:58:11.000 This is how you build wealth, right?

01:58:13.000 And we've had so much progressive freak outs about like how, you know, the poor people can't build wealth or whatever.

01:58:19.000 And this is how they do it.

01:58:22.000 This is how you can build wealth.

01:58:23.000 I think that's great. 0.92

01:58:24.000 Steven Crowder did an expose on the dozens of Chinese owned pot farms in the U.S., several in Oklahoma alone. 1.00

01:58:31.000 Well, you know, we should probably not have those. 0.99

01:58:31.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:58:33.000 Who was that?

01:58:34.000 Was that a Rumble rent?

01:58:35.000 Oh, yeah.

01:58:35.000 The Patrick 13.

01:58:37.000 Patrick.

01:58:38.000 The Patrick 13.

01:58:39.000 I got you, Patrick.

01:58:40.000 Am I doing this right, Carter?

01:58:41.000 Yeah.

01:58:42.000 Yeah.

01:58:43.000 We all could make a thinker for life again.

01:58:45.000 Thank you, thinker. 0.96

01:58:47.000 We all could make a huge difference if we consistently pushed Randy Fine's new bill, which bans foreign aligned citizens like terrorists, Tlaib and Omar. 0.98

01:58:58.000 Well, if what you're saying is that people who hold federal office should be born in the United States, I think that's a great idea. 0.95

01:59:03.000 Of course, with 1.0 million Americans being raised as Chinese, I don't know that. 1.00

01:59:09.000 I mean, I feel like. 1.00

01:59:11.000 I feel like that ship has sailed to a certain extent because all you really have to do is sneak in, have a kid, raise them somewhere else.

01:59:18.000 I think it's 1.15 million.

01:59:20.000 Oh my gosh.

01:59:21.000 It's a lot.

01:59:22.000 In China. 0.98

01:59:23.000 Being indoctrinated into their system and their values and their morals. 0.92

01:59:23.000 In China. 0.92

01:59:27.000 I do not understand why Congress doesn't shut down that industry.

01:59:32.000 The surrogacy and IVF?

01:59:34.000 No, the birth tourism. 0.58

01:59:36.000 Yes, but also the birth tourism.

01:59:40.000 IVF is dark too.

01:59:41.000 I know friends that have benefited from that, but the surrogacy is dark.

01:59:44.000 But it's not just the surrogacy, it's the birth tourism.

01:59:47.000 Like there's places where you. 0.85

01:59:49.000 They advertise to Chinese. 1.00

01:59:50.000 It's a good place to start, I think. 1.00

01:59:51.000 Come have your baby here in the Northern Mariana Islands.

01:59:55.000 Should I do more of them, Carter?

01:59:56.000 There's one, and then we can do.

01:59:58.000 Which one?

01:59:58.000 This one, the purple one right there.

02:00:00.000 The purple one?

02:00:01.000 Yeah.

02:00:01.000 Jolly1976 says, Libcast, I think we need to workshop that name.

02:00:09.000 What is this website we are getting all of the articles from tonight?

02:00:12.000 It is working so much better than the articles POSO was pulling up yesterday.

02:00:16.000 Well, it is the post millennial. 0.91

02:00:19.000 I will tell you that.

02:00:20.000 I am the editor in chief of the Postmillennial, and you have been hanging out tonight with all of us, and I'm really happy about that.

02:00:27.000 You can also check out my podcast, The Podmillennial.

02:00:31.000 And soon that's going to be a video podcast, I am told.

02:00:34.000 Apparently, they're putting a studio in my little tiny house.

02:00:38.000 So we will see how that goes.

02:00:40.000 I don't know where I'm supposed to put all of the books that are currently in the place where they want to put the studio.

02:00:46.000 Terry, tell everyone where they can find you AmericanPrencilsProject.org, and you can follow me across all social media channels at At Shilling 1776.

02:00:46.000 Nice.

02:00:56.000 You can find me online at Shane Cashman.

02:00:58.000 I host Inverted World Monday through Thursday, 10 o'clock at night on Rumble and YouTube.

02:01:01.000 And my new book, Good Villains, is available for pre order now at Barnes Noble, Books A Million, Walmart, you name it, Amazon.

02:01:08.000 Good Villains.

02:01:08.000 Check it out.

02:01:09.000 That's right.

02:01:10.000 Oh, that's the first I've heard of it.

02:01:11.000 Yeah, yeah.

02:01:11.000 Great title.

02:01:12.000 Thank you.

02:01:13.000 Hey, I'm Ian Crossam, but Monday is Memorial Day.

02:01:13.000 Yeah.

02:01:17.000 This is important to remember.

02:01:18.000 You want the antidote to chaos is remembrance of the righteous, is living in belief and faith, is having a point that you focus on, God.

02:01:28.000 Faith, country, people, your neighbors, your people.

02:01:30.000 But remember these people that had to face the horrors before you so that you don't have to.

02:01:36.000 And really, really put yourself, try to put yourself where they were.

02:01:39.000 Watch documentaries of guys that came back from Vietnam that served at Hotel Hanoi, you know, dudes that were shot down that were POWs and that still found a way.

02:01:52.000 I'm not trying to drum up fake emotion about it.

02:01:54.000 It's just super, super important.

02:01:56.000 It really is important.

02:01:57.000 And Monday is Memorial Day.

02:01:58.000 I don't know if we're going to have a show Monday anyway.

02:01:59.000 So.

02:02:01.000 God, thanks to all you people that have served in the military.

02:02:04.000 That is a big deal.

02:02:05.000 Thank you.

02:02:06.000 Goodbye.

02:02:07.000 And you can find me on Twitter at Libby Emmons.

02:02:10.000 And thanks for hanging out.

02:02:11.000 And I'm Carter Banks.

02:02:13.000 And thank you all for coming.

02:02:15.000 We're going to go to the after show after this.

02:02:17.000 And you can follow me at Carter Banks if you want to.

02:02:20.000 Man, Terry, Shane, Ian, Libby, thank you for coming in.

02:02:24.000 And this has been fun.

02:02:25.000 So yeah, let's do it.

02:04:12.000 Okay.

02:04:13.000 All right.

02:04:14.000 Hey, guys.

02:04:14.000 So we're back.

02:04:15.000 Thanks for hanging out.

02:04:16.000 This is the Timcast after show.

02:04:18.000 I am Libby Ammons, and I am still hosting.

02:04:21.000 I haven't even left this chair.

02:04:22.000 So we're doing a great job, Libby.

02:04:25.000 We're glad that you're back.

02:04:26.000 Thanks, Shane and Terry.

02:04:28.000 Ian had to leave.

02:04:29.000 But we have this great story that I'm really excited to talk about.

02:04:32.000 Terry's all excited about it, too.

02:04:34.000 It is about the DNC.

02:04:36.000 So we have this up from the pod millennial, the post millennial.

02:04:42.000 We named the podcast so similarly to the site that I keep saying the wrong thing.

02:04:48.000 Anyway, DNC releases error filled 2024 election autopsy to get Americans to trust Dems again.

02:04:57.000 So they said, I am doing this because people need to be able to trust the Democratic Party and trust our word.

02:05:04.000 Essentially, after facing intense pressure, we have this from Thomas Stevenson.

02:05:09.000 Good Tommy.

02:05:10.000 After facing intense pressure, Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin has released.

02:05:14.000 The party's autopsy report on the 2024 election, in which President Trump won his second term after a four year gap.

02:05:21.000 Ahead of the election, former President Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed his vice president, Kamala Harris.

02:05:26.000 Harris lost easily to President Trump.

02:05:29.000 Although the report is full of errors and incomplete, Martin released it, he said, to increase Trump transparency and to gain trust with voters.

02:05:37.000 Terry, tell us what's going on with this.

02:05:38.000 All right.

02:05:39.000 So I want to, I will tell you, I would consider myself an expert on the RNC's 2012 autopsy.

02:05:48.000 Primarily because my organization, APP, wrote the counter autopsy to that.

02:05:53.000 And I just want to contrast this 2012 autopsy, which was just as disastrous as this 2024 autopsy for the Dems, but for exact opposite reasons.

02:06:02.000 So the GOP's autopsy in 2012 essentially said the reason Mitt Romney lost is because social issues distracted from our winning economic message.

02:06:13.000 And going forward, the GOP needed to have a big tent in the culture war, but also it needed to promote more immigration and more acceptance.

02:06:21.000 For Hispanic immigrants in the country.

02:06:25.000 Obviously, Trump runs in 2016 on the exact opposite platform populist economics, social conservatism, and restricting immigration.

02:06:35.000 And he ends up winning.

02:06:36.000 And it was a successful platform for him and the Republican Party.

02:06:39.000 And it was the biggest expansion of the Republican Party we've ever seen.

02:06:43.000 The Democratic platform is the exact opposite because, well, I guess it's kind of similar in a way.

02:06:51.000 They're actually saying, Joe Biden, had he dropped out a little bit sooner and Kamala had more time to get her message out, we probably would have won.

02:07:01.000 There's no calls to moderate on their party platform.

02:07:05.000 There's no call. 0.71

02:07:06.000 They still are refusing to admit that the transgender issue killed them. 0.68

02:07:12.000 It killed them with swing voters, it killed them with suburban married women. 1.00

02:07:17.000 I will just say a quick aside we often blame women for America's bad politics. 1.00

02:07:23.000 Married women are actually very, very good, very conservative. 1.00

02:07:26.000 It's the never married and the cohabitating that are 70% Dem voters, but they're doubling down. 1.00

02:07:32.000 This.
