On today's show, we have a special guest, Brandon Strock, founder of the Walkaway Campaign, who joins us to talk about why the Democratic Party is going all in on Kamala Harris and why she's going to lose to Donald Trump in 2020. Plus, we talk about Joe Biden's comments at the Democratic National Convention and why he might endorse Donald Trump.
00:00:32.000RFK Jr., his team, very angry about how the Democrats have waged lawfare against them, have announced that they're planning, potentially, to drop out and endorse Donald Trump.
00:01:00.000Plus, we'll talk a little bit about what Joe Biden was saying last night, and a bunch of other stories.
00:01:05.000I'm getting really interested to see what's going on with Matt Walsh there.
00:01:09.000They're saying he's posing as a delegate, so this is gonna be pretty funny.
00:01:12.000And they're doing their fake vote right now, which is funny because they already voted for her, and there's like a chyron saying, like, technically they already voted for her, like, last week, so this is just celebratory.
00:01:39.000It's all going to expanding the company, and we're hoping to get our coffee shop up and running as soon as possible.
00:01:44.000It's an historic building, so it is what it is, but when you buy from Casprew, You're supporting that endeavor.

00:02:28.000Sorry, I'm Brandon Strock, founder of the WalkAway campaign.
00:02:31.000And for anybody who maybe has been on social media in the last week, I just dropped a new video talking about all the things that Democrats have done to destroy the country over the last six years, which has been kind of blowing up on X. Give it a look if you haven't seen it yet and share it out.
00:02:45.000And also, WalkAway's running a big contest we'll be talking about, the WalkAway $10,000 Testimonial Video Challenge.
00:04:55.000There's two options that we're looking at, and one is staying in, forming that new party, but we run the risk of a Kamala Harris and Waltz presidency because we draw votes from Trump, or we draw somehow more votes from Trump.
00:05:16.000We walk away right now and join forces with Donald Trump and we walk away from that and we explain to our base why we're making this decision.
00:05:42.000And in this podcast, actually a much, much longer conversation, Shanann talks about how they're basically waging, the Democrats are waging extreme lawfare against them.
00:05:51.000And Trump's actually been receptive to their ideas.
00:05:57.000RFK Jr.' 's passion for chronic illnesses and environmental toxins, that's the Trump path right there.
00:06:06.000He goes to Trump, gives Trump the endorsement, Trump should put him on some kind of board managing or overseeing this kind of stuff.
00:06:12.000Yeah, I thought actually, I haven't seen very many interviews with Nicole Shanahan, and I actually thought this one was pretty compelling.
00:06:18.000It's obviously a deeply emotional conversation for her, and they covered a lot of stuff, including policies, but she said that the DNC has effectively sabotaged them, and they have this PAC that has been using millions of dollars to target them specifically.
00:06:34.000She even alluded to people being in their campaigns specifically to You know, cause chaos and all kinds of problems.
00:06:40.000But I found it really interesting hearing her talk about the effect of being a third party candidate.
00:06:45.000She said, you know, if we get 5% or more of the vote, then that unlocks public funding for us.
00:06:49.000That means that next year in 2028, we could run a more legitimate third party candidate.
00:06:58.000I don't know where she got that number from, but I believe it.
00:07:00.000I think there are a lot of Americans who are frustrated with the stranglehold the two dominant parties have on American politics.
00:07:06.000And so, When I first saw this clip this morning, I thought, hopefully she has talked to RFK and he knows that she's saying these things publicly.
00:07:15.000Otherwise, it really seems like there's chaos within their ticket.
00:07:18.000But it is interesting to hear her way sort of like what it means to be a third party candidate in America versus what is actually good for the country.
00:07:28.000But don't you feel like the fact that they're basically being bullied out by the Democrats and all the and the Democrats using all the usual tactics, lawfare, corrupt, you know, devious behavior, all of these things.
00:07:43.000And they're willing to actually get behind Trump if they drop out.
00:07:45.000I mean, doesn't that tell you so much?
00:07:47.000And it wasn't even consideration from the beginning for them, it seems like, for them to join or endorse Harris's campaign.
00:07:53.000She even said, Shanahan said, she regretted supporting Democrats in the past.
00:08:01.000And she's saying, you know, she has this line where she's like, we didn't want to be a spoiler candidate, but the DNC has forced us into a position where we are, and we wanted to win, we wanted a fair shot, and the DNC has made that impossible.
00:08:11.000But she's not saying that they're being bullied and pushed around by both camps.
00:08:14.000No, she said specifically it was not the RNC.
00:08:44.000I'm voting for the one I believe in the most but the thing about politics is it's a game.
00:08:49.000It's like it's like a game of organization and strategy where you vote against.
00:08:53.000Sometimes to get things through, you make deals with people that you don't agree with to get your part of your deal through, like what the Libertarian Party did with Chase Oliver.
00:09:01.000They basically colluded behind the scenes to get that guy into power.
00:09:05.000The two of the frontrunners decided together, like, let's just bury the hatchet and we'll make Chase our candidate.
00:09:11.000And the reality is, It destroyed the party.
00:09:17.000It's ripped the Libertarian Party to shreds.
00:09:20.000You've got Mises caucus, Libertarian Party members openly endorsing Donald Trump right now.
00:09:26.000The Libertarian Party's backroom deals with their garbage candidates destroyed whatever chance they had.
00:09:33.000I would not want to be Clint or Dave if Trump loses.
00:09:39.000If you actually were the nominee for the Libertarian Party and Trump lost and they actually did get 3 or 4 percent, everyone's gonna be like, it's your fault.
00:09:46.000That 3 percent could have got Trump over 1.
00:09:49.000I was just out to dinner with Clint last weekend on Friday, I think it was, and he said the exact same thing.
00:09:53.000He's like, could you have imagined if we did it and then Trump... I was like, you guys would have got 12 percent of the vote.
00:10:29.000You know, Joe Rogan, recently he was talking to, I think it was Russell Crowe, And he's saying, you know, it's all my team, tribal this, tribal that.
00:10:38.000I think that statement exemplifies exactly what I was warning about with these Trump influencers who are attacking Joe.
00:10:50.000I think what we're looking at is the Republican Party had a brutal primary.
00:10:56.000The Ron DeSantis voters despised the Trump voters.
00:10:59.000And there was a brutal internal conflict.
00:11:01.000And even Vivek Ramaswamy He's running, and there were a lot of... Now, his strategy was, play nice with Trump, but see if I can mulch that support from people who think Trump may not be the right guy right now.
00:11:12.000A lot of people were on Team Vivek, saying, no, no, Trump is great, he's a smart guy, he was mistreated.
00:11:24.000I mean, they were absolutely brutal, they were insulting people, they were attacking them, and the Trump supporters were attacking the DeSantis people.
00:11:30.000Through this primary, you ended up with DeSantis supporters begrudgingly saying, fine, you guys win, Trump's the candidate, we still don't like him, but we recognize he's better than Kamala.
00:11:40.000There is a faction, there are numerous factions on the right who have chosen to or not to vote for Donald Trump in the primary, resulting in him ultimately being the winner.
00:11:50.000And now many people say, fine, I'll vote for Trump because I've weighed the pros and cons and it makes sense.
00:11:54.000On the Democrat side, they installed her.
00:12:22.000Donald Trump is the candidate of a brutal primary process and a democratic process among people who thought, fine, he's not my candidate, but I'd consider voting for him, and the Trump supporters who are screaming and cheering and banging their heads saying, woo, we love Trump no matter what.
00:12:35.000The Democrat side is people screaming and cheering Kamala, Kamala, despite the fact nobody voted for her in the first place.
00:12:43.000Yeah, the only way I would not vote Trump is if I really, really hated the guy or disliked him or disapproved of his policies or something like that.
00:12:51.000But this is the reason I bring this up.
00:14:17.000I'm not sure how they installed or exactly.
00:14:19.000They did, but they decided outside of a primary.
00:14:22.000The primary chose Joe Biden, and they knew from the beginning this was... You will never convince me they didn't know we were going this direction.
00:14:30.000That's why I'll scream it to the high heavens.
00:14:32.000In September, I think 13th, I put out a video on my morning show saying Biden will not be the nominee.
00:14:37.000I said, after everything we've seen, I have no idea how he could possibly be the nominee.
00:14:42.000And of course, I had my doubts after that.
00:15:30.000It should be that the Democrats offer up someone who's marginally good and the Republicans offer up someone who's marginally good and we go, ugh, we roll our eyes and say, well, look, you know, ultimately there's a few social issues.
00:15:59.000Trump represents slightly different policies from Ron DeSantis.
00:16:02.000Ron DeSantis is a little bit more, I think he represented The right populist faction a bit better than Trump did.
00:16:09.000You know, Ron DeSantis was very critical of some of the things that Trump had done, and Ron's governance in Florida very much reflected the will of many, like the popular positions of the right.
00:16:19.000But Donald Trump has the charisma to win.
00:16:21.000So there was a big debate over whether Trump was the right guy, DeSantis was the right guy.
00:16:27.000Brandon, when you walked away from the Democratic Party, was it because of the way that they handled the 2016 election with Hillary subverting Bernie?
00:16:38.000And I actually supported Hillary going back to 2008 when it was her versus Obama.
00:16:45.000And then when it became Obama, I got behind him and I supported him.
00:16:49.000No, for me, it mostly had to do with the media and the way that the media manipulates and basically carries water for the Democrats.
00:16:58.000Because when Trump got elected, In 2016, the media that I trusted, CNN, MSNBC, New York Times, etc., by that point they were saying he had a 3% chance of winning.
00:17:10.000So I didn't even question that she was going to win in a landslide.
00:17:44.000Did he advocate for expelling Muslims from this country?
00:17:48.000And what I discovered time and time again was in every single instance, they were Taking something that wasn't true at all, but isolating a soundbite and kind of creating their own narrative.
00:17:57.000And that they're just basically a propaganda arm for the Democratic Party.
00:18:02.000Well, take a look at what just happened the other day from S.E.N.R.
00:18:05.000Biden repeats debunked very fine people claim during his DNC speech.
00:18:24.000I'm not going to play the full five minute clip, but he actually said, Donald Trump said, and I quote, there are very fine people on both sides.
00:18:41.000And I ask again, I don't understand where Joe Rogan Dave Smith, Michael Maus, Clint Russell, Luke Gretkowski.
00:18:49.000Now Luke has worn the shirt saying convicted felon for president, so I think it's clear Luke intends to vote for Donald Trump.
00:18:55.000But to, and I don't know where Michael and Dave are, I'm just saying these are, you know, Joe Rogan's a middle-of-the-road guy, he's independent, he's like, I don't know, RFK makes sense to me.
00:19:03.000Dave Smith is a Libertarian Mises Caucus guy, Michael is an anarchist, but I have to imagine each one of these people in any rational conversation says, yeah, you gotta vote for Trump.
00:19:12.000Donald Trump represents, at the bare minimum, the last thread of a democratic process in this country.
00:19:18.000I'm an artist by trade and like the idea of picking a polarizing candidate and voting for him and upsetting half of the people I know in the world and ostracizing myself from their cultural realm is disconcerting because I want to make them happy through music and I want them doing so that I can bring people together.
00:19:35.000But I have to follow my integrity and look back on this as like I voted for the system.
00:19:41.000I wanted to maintain the democratic process.
00:19:44.000Where you get to vote and choose your candidates.
00:19:46.000I cannot tolerate a system where we're just given candidates.
00:20:09.000So I can respect anybody saying they want to vote for who they want to vote for because that's the right candidate, because if everyone did, this country would be very different, but I also respect the point that you're basically not voting.
00:20:25.000Can I ask, though, if RFK drops out and you're willing to vote for Trump, why not just vote for Trump anyway, knowing that RFK can't win?
00:20:36.000Man, you know the main reason why I've been resistant to vote for Trump in the last year or two is because I don't want to upset half the people I know.
00:20:42.000It's a real weak way to do it, but I'm like, if I can just hold on and be the cultural centerpiece of my reality, and you don't have to tell people who you vote for.
00:21:05.000I think a lot of people, and maybe people don't think this is true in 2016, but in 2016 in particular, I felt like there were so many people who were like, oh no, I didn't vote, but they would, if you knew them well enough, would be like, I voted for Trump.
00:21:19.000You know, I want to go back to something you said before, which is talking about the propaganda arm of the DNC.
00:21:24.000And I think this is such a big part of how democratic campaigns in America work right now.
00:21:30.000It's made me think of Tim Walz, this vice president who is getting caught time and time again in these sort of like Half lies.
00:21:38.000Like the thing today is he had implied, you know, he'd said JD Vance is a bad guy and he's saying bad stuff about IVF, which is very personal to me and my wife, implying that he had used in vitro fertilization to have his children.
00:21:49.000It turns out he's had used IUI, a different fertility treatment.
00:21:52.000But again, it's just these misdirection and lies where at a certain point, like, You just wonder why they cannot pick an honest path at all.
00:22:00.000And I think ultimately it's because they have certain punches they want to throw and they'll do whatever they can to try and make the Republicans look bad at the cost of their integrity to the voters.
00:22:11.000They're like manipulative imperialists.
00:22:13.000Look, look, everybody's encountered someone like this.
00:22:16.000Be it in Magic the Gathering or a sporting event, basketball, golf, people who lie about their scores, people who slip cards on top of the deck, people who cheat because it's the fastest path towards victory.
00:23:00.000There were friendships that we had had on this show, for people who had come on this show, and we got into arguments over the Republican primary.
00:23:08.000The Democratic Party is... it's a cult.
00:23:40.000And it's because Republicans—it was really funny, we had a great super chat last night where they said that the Democrats are the Romulans and the Republicans are the Klingons.
00:23:47.000And for those that don't know anything about Star Trek, basically the Romulans in the series are dirty, deceitful, arrogant.
00:24:12.000And the Democrats are like, all is fair in love and war.
00:24:15.000The Democrats were like, while you were so busy looking at the spirit of the rules, we rules lawyered to make sure we were going to win any way we could.
00:24:22.000Because power doesn't care how you got it.
00:24:25.000And the Republicans keep doing this, and I hope to God they're not doing it this time, where they're like, if we just argue again, we'll win!
00:24:32.000And Democrats are going, don't tell him anything.
00:24:58.000And they're gonna go, okay, and they're gonna fill out the mail-in ballot, they're gonna hand it to the ballot harvester, and that's the end of it.
00:25:02.000I saw Harry Sisson, who I don't know him very well, but him and his buddy posted a Twitter thing about, we're voting for change.
00:25:10.000And I was like, oh my god, it's 2008 all over again.
00:25:18.000That's the amazing thing about having Biden speak first, which is if he doesn't speak, a lot of speeches yesterday were like, hope and things are different.
00:25:36.000They're trying to pretend like they're not the incumbent party so they can say things are going to get better.
00:25:40.000And we don't know why they're bad right now.
00:25:42.000Probably that mean Donald Trump when actually they have been in control of the presidency for four years and Democratic policies have not done well for American families.
00:25:51.000You can ask them, you know, anytime anyone has to pay a grocery bill, I'm sure they are not thinking, thanks, Democrats.
00:25:58.000It's to make, you know the Obama poster of hope?
00:26:01.000Make the same thing of Kamala Harris, but have it say, change back.
00:26:05.000Because that's what they're actually after.
00:26:06.000When they say change, it's change back.
00:26:08.000They want to go back to when Barack Obama was blowing up kids in foreign countries, was destabilizing the Middle East, Hillary Clinton was saying, we came, we saw, he died, ha ha ha, can't we just drone him?
00:26:50.000And they didn't bring up hydrogen or graphene, so that's my role in this whole process, is I've got to re-enliven or inspire them to start talking about hydrogen and graphene, because that's one way to fix the economy without having to conquest.
00:27:02.000And that's the first proposal from Trump's Agenda 47, which is unleash American energy, which includes nuclear power.
00:27:08.000And so, hey, that actually makes sense.
00:27:32.000They're just trying to limit growth because if humans grow too fast, they'll consume themselves or somebody will get too much power too quickly and start another war.
00:27:40.000Some corporation will become... So they want to limit growth.
00:27:43.000And the problem is if you unleash energy, completely unleash it, then there's no limitation on growth anymore and people might outgrow themselves.
00:27:51.000That's the concern with fully unleashing the energy supply.
00:27:54.000I'm open to... Unleash probably isn't the right word, because if you let a dog off the leash, there's no more control of the dog.
00:28:02.000You gotta hope that it's trained, and humans aren't trained.
00:28:04.000So... Oh, you're playing semantics now.
00:28:05.000Well, yeah, but it's... He's saying, let's invest in energy.
00:28:08.000That's good, but there is this growth limitation thing that we gotta take into account.
00:28:12.000And I kinda see, that's my utilitarian understanding.
00:28:19.000You didn't see the video where they're like showing, he's got all, he's got like three or four starships built and ready for testing because they go up and they blow up and they gotta make them.
00:28:28.000Yeah, it's called human expansion as we've always done.
00:28:31.000And then the left is the party of, what's that book about the gorilla?
00:29:14.000With Edward, no, no, no, it's Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman, and they're talking about, they're magicians, they're doing stage shows, and it starts, Christian Bale's very poor, and he's doing this poor show, but then he comes up with a really great trick, and now he's making money, and then he buys a house.
00:29:29.000The shows back then, they've got 200 people in the audience, But if you did a show to 200 people, you know, four or five nights a week, you could, you were rich, you were buying a house and supporting a family.
00:30:21.000They have a vasectomy truck at the DNC.
00:30:23.000This is not the path for human expansion, it's the path for human destruction.
00:30:28.000Yeah, it's like an age of trust, where we've got to trust that we can take the giant leap forward.
00:30:33.000Isn't that a Maoist revolutionary thing, the great leap forward? But we need some sort of
00:30:37.000evolution where we just breach the gap into maybe unlimited electricity. Unlimited, literally.
00:30:46.000It is interesting because Elon Musk is so drawn to innovation and Trump has really innovated the Republican Party.
00:30:51.000I mean, I was listening to an interview with one of the DNC leadership members today and she was saying, she was asked directly.
00:30:58.000Are we going to hear more about Kamala Harris's campaign policies because she doesn't have any listed and, you know, or is the is the convention going to kind of set them?
00:31:05.000And she said, oh, you know, well, she represents the party and the party represents her.
00:31:11.000There is more cohesion around the way the DNC, in my opinion, and you would maybe have a better insight than I would, Brandon, but the way it has always been, whereas Elon Musk, Donald Trump and the Republicans are really going through an evolutionary expansion process, like they are changing As the world is changing, and I don't think that's true for Democrats right now.
00:31:31.000Yeah, I mean, I personally have issues with the Republican Party not keeping up with the times.
00:31:39.000I think that Trump is bringing us more in that direction, but I actually wanted to address something you were saying earlier when you were talking about the issues that are driving people, I think, away from Kamala.
00:31:51.000I've been staying in New York for a couple of weeks, and I actually have had a couple
00:31:53.000experiences there that I thought were really eye-opening and a little bit reassuring.
00:33:16.000They say that Vice President Kamala Harris has declared her support for Biden's 44.6% capital gains.
00:33:20.000The proposal would be the highest in history.
00:33:23.000It also includes a 25% tax on unrealized gains for high net worth individuals, more than $100 million in wealth.
00:33:31.000Harris's campaign shared support for the tax proposal as the 2024 DNC is underway.
00:33:36.000Harris spoke Monday at the event in Chicago along with President Biden.
00:33:39.000The Democratic nominee has also proposed tax cuts beyond Biden's budget.
00:33:43.000These include an exemption for tipped workers, a $6,000 tax credit for parents of newborns, and an expanded child tax credit that the Biden budget doesn't extend beyond 2025.
00:33:53.000Now, I can't speak for every company, but I want to make a few points here.
00:33:54.000Her campaign said Monday the current corporate tax rate is 21.
00:33:58.000It's down from 35% after Donald Trump signed the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which will
00:34:38.000I don't really care that much about corporate tax rate stuff, because as long as companies are reinvesting anyway, all it means is you're shaving off a thin amount of their margins, but that could put them at risk, and it will result in increased prices then, because of an obligation to the shareholders at larger corporations.
00:36:19.000Let's just talk about general wealth tax.
00:36:20.000Let's say you buy a $5,000,000 house 10 years from now or 20 years from now, because inflation is that bad, and then it goes up to $6,000,000.
00:37:47.000If they get away with this and they say it's only for $100 million and then this country experiences extreme hyperinflation, you could accidentally find yourself in a very high bracket.
00:37:57.000Now don't get me wrong, the amount of inflation you'd need to reach $100 million net worth is psychotic.
00:38:03.000If every average American was worth $100 million, their money's worth nothing.
00:38:58.000A $500,000 house becomes a $2,000,000 house in 20 years.
00:39:01.000And then you're going to have people who are business owners, and we're talking medium-level businesses at this point, and it's over $100,000,000.
00:39:12.000This is a path over the long period of time towards a communist system that stops people from reaching a certain level of wealth and power.
00:39:18.000Has there ever been an unrealized gains tax in the U.S.
00:40:12.000I have to imagine it might, it just might become Oligarchy!
00:40:17.000Only the wealthy corporations with Federal Reserve funding are going to be able to buy properties.
00:40:22.000They say you owe $25,000 in your house, otherwise we're seizing it.
00:40:25.000So you sell your house, then you go, okay, well now we've got $575,000, but every comparable house is $600,000, plus the fees for the real estate agent and the lawyers.
00:40:35.000So we can only really afford a $500,000 house, which is smaller than the house we were just in, so you buy that one.
00:40:39.000A year later, now that house is $600,000.
00:40:41.000And you go, rinse and repeat, your house is getting smaller and smaller and smaller every step of the way.
00:40:45.000And BlackRock's buying up houses, and they're getting the printed money from the Federal Reserve first.
00:42:02.000All that means is it would decenter the United States.
00:42:05.000That's the problem with them raising the corporate tax, too, is corporations will up and leave.
00:42:10.000Trump lowering the corporate tax got a bunch of corporations to come back.
00:42:13.000I don't know the exact numbers, but it got corporations to reinstate their headquarters in the United States.
00:42:18.000So the issue with corporate tax, this is the craziest thing.
00:42:23.000If you've got a business, and in one month, let's say you're a restaurant, you do $100,000 in sales.
00:42:31.000You then have to pay all your staff and all your costs, and let's say it's, I don't know, $80,000.
00:42:36.000You get paid a salary because you're the manager or whatever, and you might be making, you know, $200,000 a year or whatever, so the rest goes to you, and you have almost no profit.
00:42:47.000So that little bit of profit goes in the bank and you're like, we need to build up a rainy day fund in the event that sales dip for one month, we can cover our fixed costs.
00:42:56.000So let's say you get to the point where you've got a restaurant and you're operating at a 2% to 3% margin.
00:43:01.000So you're getting a couple grand per month that you're putting away.
00:43:03.000And you're like, we need to build up our coffers for rainy day so that when there's a downturn or recession, we can keep paying our employees.
00:44:04.000Serge, before the show mentioned digital serfdom, or modern day serfdom, to think that people will be shoved into a permanent state of rental class, and middle class businesses will be shut down so that giant oligarchical corporations can control the organization and the structure.
00:44:21.000I don't know if that's what they intentionally want, or if these people are just ignorantly guiding people towards passive inflation.
00:44:28.000We got a super chat from Gary Hardy that actually exemplifies the problem very well.
00:44:32.000He says, our taxes do go up every year based on inflation.
00:45:18.000It's how people lose the land that their parents owned.
00:45:23.000So if you look at rural properties you'll notice like there will be an area of some rural area and it'll be like a 50 acre property and then you'll notice it's oddly shaped and there's a row of developments along one side and then you look at the property history and what happens is 300 years ago, some guy walks a piece of land, puts a fence around it, nobody lives there, and he's like, I'm gonna farm here.
00:45:47.000100 years go by, and they show up, and they say, is this your land?
00:45:50.000Well, if you're taking this much land from the community and from the town, you gotta pay taxes on it and say, sure.
00:45:54.000100 years goes by, and what happens is, if your farm generates, let's say, you know, I don't know, $10,000 a month or whatever, feeds your family, and you get a little bit extra for knickknacks or whatever, Then the government comes and says, well, the property's massive and we could put factories on it.
00:46:10.000It's got to be worth at least a million dollars.
00:46:44.000And a point of the show is when they say you gotta pay taxes on it, and this is how the people want to steal his land, they're like, this is the attack vector.
00:46:52.000He won't be able to pay the taxes on it.
00:46:53.000They'll have to start parceling land and it will destroy the ranch.
00:48:12.000So when the communists talk about the bourgeois, they're not talking about the wealthy people, they're talking about middle class Americans.
00:48:20.000People working managerial jobs and trying to have a family.
00:48:28.000Cernovich tweets, Communists do not hate the wealthy.
00:48:30.000As long as they decide who is at the top, Reid Hoffman, Bill Gates, Mark Cuban, they can do whatever they like as long as they play ball and share any lie from the regime.
00:48:38.000If you own a home, you are the rich that Communists will destroy.
00:48:42.000And that's why in China, you can't own property.
00:48:49.000I think this is sort of the lie of the Harris-Waltz campaign.
00:48:52.000And as we can see, the Harris-Waltz campaign is effectively still the Biden-Harris campaign in a lot of ways.
00:48:58.000They're going to say over and over again, well, we're for the working class, we're for the working class.
00:49:02.000And Trump, he doesn't understand and we're for you.
00:49:04.000But if they were ever asked specific questions about the policies that they back up, you would see that that's not the case.
00:49:11.000I mean, it's not enough to just pick the You know, white guy from the Midwest and say, oh, we're for average Americans.
00:49:18.000You have to actually have that in policy.
00:49:21.000And I think the economy is one of these buzzword issues for this campaign in particular, where they're like, well, we don't want the wealthy to win and we, you know, whatever.
00:49:30.000They'll throw things around, but there's no explanation of what they're planning.
00:49:33.000And I think that is largely because ultimately they are going to increase taxes in a way that will hurt the working class that they don't want to admit to.
00:49:42.000Let's jump to these tweets, talk a little bit about the DNC.
00:50:36.000Not only do we have the riots outside, and it's low-tier stuff, but they did tear down the barricades and breach the perimeter, so I'm calling that a riot.
00:51:15.000I think it's because this sect of people that are supporting the Democratic Party feel as though they've been fortified, that their system is fortified and ready to win.
00:51:24.000They're not in to try and mess with the other.
00:51:30.000They feel like they've got it in the bag, maybe.
00:51:33.000I think it's that they don't want to hear what's going on at the RNC.
00:51:35.000They want to hear it through the lens of the media, and they don't want to be in the presence of hate or whatever.
00:51:41.000Whereas, you know, conservatives actually find it—they've seen a lot of success by going inside, you know, events that are not typically open to them.
00:51:49.000I'm thinking of, you know, the family-friendly, quote-unquote, drag performances, and you'll get these on-the-ground reportings where it's like, is this what you're describing as family-friendly?
00:51:59.000Yeah, I think it's—this is why I don't call it the left and the right at all.
00:52:19.000You can see Matt Walsh right here with his little red hat walking around.
00:52:23.000He posts some of the most Uh, what would you call it?
00:52:26.000Scathing stuff on Twitter, where I'm like... There he is!
00:52:28.000Where I'm like, I don't... Like, he'll post stuff on Twitter and I'm like, I don't, Matt, I don't want to read it, I don't want to look at it, but he constantly makes me love the man.
00:52:35.000Wait, wait, is the camera panning to try and get Matt Walsh again?
00:52:37.000No, I think they're trying to get him out of the shot.
00:52:39.000He gets the blame for a lot of things he does do.
00:52:41.000He's lost his bearings, as we can see.
00:53:20.000It's not really, like, fitting correctly.
00:53:22.000Okay, so now I definitely wish I was there after seeing this.
00:53:25.000I'm like, okay, that would have been fun.
00:53:27.000But I don't want to be anywhere near outside, and getting to and from seems crazy, so no DNC for us.
00:53:33.000Probably would have been really cool now in retrospect.
00:53:35.000Charlie Kirk's a master, man, and I think his...
00:53:39.000History will look back on him fondly for his reaching across the aisle and his consistent olive branches that he's made to offer.
00:53:45.000Maybe it doesn't turn out so bad, but I'm still worried about the riots.
00:53:49.000There's, like, Democrats getting hotels and fake names.
00:53:51.000The amount of security stuff we had to do, we would have had to have done, is just... I just didn't find it to be worth it to go to the DNC.
00:53:57.000In Chicago, of all places, dude, you get shot in Chicago and they say, just another weekend.
00:54:05.000I mean, the hard thing about doing IRL is that we're working when a lot of the speeches are going on.
00:54:10.000But I think there was a lot of really interesting energy.
00:54:12.000One of the critiques that or one of the analysis that I was listening to of the DNC today was they had Steve Kerr, I think is his name.
00:54:20.000He's the coach who coached the Yeah, and he was just at the Olympics with Team USA, and they had him up and they're saying, I was listening to this New York Times analysis, and they were like, yeah, because Democrats feel like the Republicans have really taken control of red, white, and blue, and they're trying to offer their own version of patriotism.
00:54:37.000Which means that really the RNC set the tone and in so many ways the DNC is responding to them.
00:54:44.000I mean, you know, Trump tweeted that thing where he's like, this is how many times they mentioned my name last night.
00:55:27.000I was just going to say, I kind of feel the opposite of the way that you feel in terms of them controlling the tone and whatnot.
00:55:33.000Because if you remember, the RNC happened so shortly after Trump got shot.
00:55:37.000In fact, I think it was the first time we saw him after he got shot.
00:55:40.000And the Democrats now, I think in retrospect, it was tactical.
00:55:45.000I mean, of course, nothing they do is sincere.
00:55:48.000At the time, they were kind of playing this game, like, let's all, let's all like, you know, take the volume down a little bit.
00:55:53.000Like, let's, let's, let's turn things down, turn down the heat.
00:55:57.000And then Trump came out and he had, I don't really feel like we, I don't feel like we strategized well about what our message was going to be after Trump got assassinated.
00:56:07.000I think there were a lot of opportunities there that were absolutely missed.
00:56:10.000And he came out and he had this kind of like docile, very sort of like soft, gentle tone.
00:56:16.000And the Democrats were keeping that too.
00:56:19.000But then it's like, as soon as we got through that, they started pouncing again.
00:56:22.000And now they're right back to the same rhetoric.
00:56:24.000I mean, from the speeches that I saw that happened last night, I caught clips.
00:56:28.000I mean, they're back to saying, you know, what a dangerous threat he is to America and that he must be neutralized.
00:57:17.000And I think that all of this, like this whole moment in time for them is Not possible without Trump.
00:57:26.000Whereas, and I got you mean, like, Trump did come out a little bit softer.
00:57:28.000He seemed like he was a little more emotional, a little more reflective.
00:57:32.000But he had said, you know, I'm not going to mention Biden during the speech.
00:57:34.000Like, he said his name like one time and a lot of people followed suit.
00:57:38.000I do think that If Trump weren't in this election for whatever reason, not because of the destination, because, you know, he wasn't eligible to run or something like that, I don't know what the Democrats would do without him.
00:57:48.000I don't think that they have a strategy other than panic about Trump.
00:57:52.000And it's interesting to see every time the Republicans offer up a policy, like the Trump Vance campaign, we still don't get anything from Harris unless it's sort of like a, I'm also not going to tax tips or I'm copying, yeah.
00:58:07.000You say $5,000, JD Vance, for parents with young children, while I say $6,000.
00:58:10.000It is very much following the Trump-Vance campaign.
00:58:15.000And to your point about them chanting USA and it being kind of bizarre and disingenuous and stuff, I mean, I've actually questioned recently if this is like a giant psyop, that they're really appropriating our culture.
00:59:13.000Joe Biden leading with the very fine people hoax.
00:59:17.000After seven years, we know it's not true.
00:59:20.000Listen to the full C-SPAN interview Trump gave, and it was comprehensive, intelligent, and measured.
00:59:25.000Trump's response could not have been more perfect.
00:59:28.000He said, there were bad people in the masks, there were neo-Nazis, there were bad people, and there were some people who got a permit, they wanted to protest, they were angry that the statue was coming down, and that's fine, they're allowed to do it, they have the First Amendment, but there were bad people on both sides, there were some good people on both sides.
00:59:44.000He actually didn't just say one simple sentence, he actually said, I saw the same videos, we know what happened, bad actors are ruining this stuff, and he said, if you would report this accurately, people would know, and what did they do?
01:02:39.000Very few mainstream media outlets covered the fact that during Biden's speech there was a banner drop down that said stop funding Israel or something like that.
01:02:45.000It's a pro-Palestine or at least anti-Israel sentiment.
01:02:49.000And very few mainstream media outlets that I have seen talked about the fact that there's a Native Americans rights group that has allied themselves with the pro-Palestinian people saying, you know, this land, the DNC is operating on stolen land and therefore we also We protest this and we stand with people in Palestine who are having, you know, their land stolen or, you know, whatever the sentiment is.
01:03:11.000It's fascinating to me that, like, they completely block out any discord within their own party, meaning that they don't want the average leans left, not super political voter to know.
01:03:22.000Hey, actually, we have tons of chaos and people within your own party think we might be the ethical role.
01:03:27.000This is the challenge right now with Trump sycophants and the unwillingness or the inability of Trump's campaign to call up the surrogates and tell them to shut the living F up when they attack moderates.
01:03:40.000Because I just watched a clip, as I mentioned earlier, from Joe Rogan's show, where he's like, it's all tribalism.
01:04:11.000But we really are looking at a party that has been lying, cheating, and stealing for who knows how long, but it's been particularly bad in the past decade.
01:04:20.000And we are in desperate need of some accountability and a functioning government to probably criminally charge those who have broken the law.
01:04:29.000You can't really go after the media for lying.
01:06:12.000And I think that sect of his base, that it's the constant loyalty tests and purity tests, and that if you dare to ask any questions or express anything that you might, you know, have a question about, you're dissatisfied with it.
01:06:25.000And then suddenly everybody's turning on you.
01:06:28.000You're not like a real Trump supporter.
01:07:48.000It is the pile on, fall in line, or else.
01:07:52.000And I think it's important that Trump's most ardent base recognize they win by alliances with moderates.
01:07:59.000And if you want to play these games where you insult the moderates, you're going to lose.
01:08:04.000Because a lot of people vote emotionally.
01:08:06.000That's what the Democrats have proven, and we're trying to convince as many middle-of-the-road people that, man, this is, it's life or death.
01:08:12.000I mean, look, I gotta be honest, even if Trump wins, there's no guarantee that we're gonna actually get a functional vote count or anything like that.
01:08:18.000Who knows what's gonna happen January 6th, 2025?
01:08:20.000Because Kamala's gonna be counting the, she's gonna be counting the electors, and Congress, Jamie Raskin's already said they're gonna block Trump if he does win.
01:08:30.000Biden claims he's gonna block, he's gonna try and take power even if he loses.
01:08:37.000I shouldn't be listening to Joe Rogan, who correctly calls out Fauci, who correctly calls out the Democrat in Stalin Kamala, who then says, yeah, but they're all just my team, this team, that team, whatever, man.
01:09:27.000He held up the sign saying MAGA equals socialism at the Libertarian Party.
01:09:31.000He doesn't want to vote for Donald Trump.
01:09:32.000And then once Chase Oliver gets nominated, he says, I guess I'm voting for Donald Trump, because I'm not going to vote for a race communist or whatever.
01:09:47.000But now it really is hyper-polarized to an extreme degree.
01:09:51.000The Republican Party, you vote for your candidate, then there's a brutal... friends become enemies, and then afterwards enemies are still... friends are not enemies again.
01:09:59.000Friendships were lost in that primary battle with DeSantis and Trump.
01:10:02.000But a vote was had and a lot of dissented supporters came around and said, OK, fine, I'll vote for Trump, but I'm mad at you guys and I hate this.
01:10:09.000And I'm like, well, that's that's how it goes.
01:10:11.000The Democrats installed Kamala and said join her or else.
01:10:14.000And they're cheering for a woman who has no campaign.
01:10:17.000She has no policies, no positions, and they're cheering for it.
01:10:36.000They're like, she's just a good leader, and you know, Trump's gonna take our freedoms.
01:10:40.000They have no idea what they're supporting.
01:10:42.000So you may not like the guy, but this is not your typical Obama versus McCain day or whatever, where McCain's like, no, my opponent's a good man.
01:10:53.000It's literally an installed candidate and voting for a system in which they do not actually have real representation of the American people and voting for a system that does.
01:11:01.000It's the first time in my life I've ever felt like I'm actually voting to resist imperial authoritarianism.
01:11:07.000Like, it's more clear than ever that the liberal economic order is like a British-centric, American, five-eyes empire.
01:11:15.000That is, they stopped calling themselves the British Empire in 1997.
01:11:17.000They rebranded as the United Kingdom now, or whatever.
01:11:29.000The Federal Reserve was like a bank, a strategy for the bankers to take control.
01:11:33.000The banker plot, the business plot in 1933, I think it was, they wanted to overthrow the government, install fascist dictatorship in the US.
01:12:25.000They're trying to conquer the Middle East, and people on both sides of the aisle, a lot of people don't want that, and they want it to stop, too.
01:14:34.000If he really just wanted to make himself better off, he'd be swimming, he'd be on a yacht with his big old belly with a beer resting on top of it in the Mediterranean eating grapes.
01:14:42.000Instead, he's like, I'm going to go to war with the deep state because I like America.
01:14:47.000He likes the admiration he gets, that's obvious.
01:14:49.000He likes being a celebrity, that's obvious.
01:14:52.000But the idea that he doesn't actually care about what he's doing is stupid.
01:14:55.000And I also heard someone say, doing the right thing for the wrong reasons is wrong.
01:14:59.000And I'm just like, uh, maybe, but you should still do it.
01:15:04.000You know, if there was a guy who's like, a burning building, I hear children screaming, if I save those kids, people are going to make me a hero.
01:15:23.000Thank you for being motivated to risk your life for whatever that reason may be.
01:15:27.000We can disagree with your motivations, but you did save two kids.
01:15:30.000And that would actually be a really interesting story.
01:15:32.000So if Donald Trump really is in it for those reasons, but he's doing good, and he hopes that in 20 years everyone claps and builds golden statues of him, great, I'll take it.
01:15:39.000I may be crazy, but I actually find him to be more altruistic than that.
01:15:43.000I don't think it's just... I agree with you.
01:16:33.000He wants to feel like people know he is.
01:16:36.000If he was a genocidal maniac who was like, I'm going to build a gigantic 200-foot golden statue of myself and enslave people, that's a bad person.
01:16:45.000But if Trump is like, I know how to make everybody love me.
01:16:48.000I'm going to improve the economy, secure our borders, bring jobs back, world peace.
01:16:53.000No, I think that there's – I think it's true.
01:16:54.000Trump likes to be like – I actually feel like for a lot of politicians, you have to want the spotlight.
01:16:59.000Like, it would be very difficult to have this type of career if you weren't interested in that at all.
01:17:05.000Like, Trump is very generous with the staff.
01:18:22.000I'll sacrifice, work really, really hard, and then they'll recognize me.
01:18:25.000And I'm like, yes, they absolutely will.
01:18:27.000Sorry, I think that if it's, you know, your ego and your need for attention, there comes a point where When they're trying to put you in prison for the rest of your life or shooting you in the head or whatever that you might Be like, you know what?
01:18:39.000I don't need attention this much order I mean the fact that he continues to go forward despite all these things.
01:18:44.000I just have to believe that he well That's that's that wants to help people I agree that he wants to help people, but I think a part of his motivation is that he wants people to like the country.
01:18:54.000I think he's lawful neutral, and that his alignment's been changing.
01:18:58.000And it could have gone evil, but it's been changing towards good the last four years or five years.
01:19:58.000And when they nearly kill him and they attack him, it's the strength that got him to that point that makes him stand up and say, now I'm doubling down.
01:20:07.000So I don't have this view in my mind of Donald Trump as being like, I will sacrifice all that I have for the betterment of mankind.
01:20:32.000Something I've noticed about ego is like, Sometimes it's the most egotistical thing you can do is to not use your body for its greatest purpose, is to hide and let yourself just be safely unknown.
01:20:44.000That's ego taking over and keeping your body safe.
01:22:36.000And apparently, when he was asked to clarify, he doubled down.
01:22:40.000Quote, after speaking on the DNC main stage last night, Harris campaign surrogate Governor Andy Beshear went on national television this morning and explicitly called for a member of Senator Vance's family to be raped, the Trump-Vance campaign said.
01:23:56.000Vance's family was raped, they would not abort the kid.
01:24:00.000We have had very many pro-life people through these doors and sitting in these chairs who would outright say, absolutely not no abortion, no exceptions.
01:24:09.000The idea that Andy Beshear thinks that J.D.
01:24:12.000Vance's family member getting raped would result in them considering aborting their child means he fundamentally does not understand.
01:24:19.000So it's just shocking that he would say something like this.
01:24:22.000I mean, it's that expression, I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy, right?
01:24:27.000And I think that almost talks—I mentioned this the other day, but I think in some ways the abortion issue is a larger-than-life caricature issue for Democrats right now.
01:24:37.000The fact that you could say, like, we'll make him go through this and not realize the consequences of what you're saying, as if implying, like, this is just a trial someone should go through, is very strange.
01:24:48.000And, you know, Andrew Scheer was on the shortlist for a potential VP candidate for Harris, and I find it fascinating that he is this Democratic governor from what is effectively a red state, Kentucky, and he is so flippant about this issue.
01:25:06.000It's just something that I feel like I think he thought it through.
01:25:10.000his own career on the line and I assume he he thinks it's worth it that that the
01:25:15.000Walz Harris campaign will provide him a future so he should just say whatever he
01:25:18.000can or else he didn't think of it think it through which is pretty thoughtless.
01:25:21.000I think he thought it through. I think what he said actually sounds fairly common in Democrat
01:25:25.000circles. When he was like make him go through this it sounds very typical of how Democrats
01:25:40.000They say the left believes that these pro-life individuals, first of all, They run the lie where they show up to these pro-life events and they go, how many kids have you adopted?
01:25:51.000And there's a bunch of people being like, none.
01:25:52.000And they're like, aha, that proves it.
01:25:54.000And then they ignore like, I don't know, Amy Coney Barrett's family.
01:26:42.000No, seriously, though, I think that they know that to win this election, they're going to have to inflame the sensibilities of a lot of women and convince a lot of women that their rights are going to be in danger if they would consider voting for Donald Trump or J.D.
01:26:58.000And I think any opportunity to remind women what's at stake and to make it seem, by the way, as if it's like a common occurrence, these rape pregnancies, which are extraordinarily rare.
01:27:11.000Yeah, I think it is interesting that this is the issue Harris in particular thinks she's going to win on.
01:27:17.000I mean, she was touring the country on her, you know, pro-abortion tour beforehand.
01:27:22.000First time she met Walls was at a Planned Parenthood, which she toured as, you know, it was, it was unprecedented having a vice president tour an abortion clinic.
01:27:29.000But I have to wonder if, uh, The issue is, you know, I saw some poll that said, you know, it's not considered a major issue by most Americans.
01:27:41.000So they can bring up abortion constantly, right?
01:27:44.000They can do it in these kind of graphic ways and they can talk, they can have their, you know, abortion and vasectomy bus outside the DNC.
01:27:52.000At the end of the day, even women who think it is a major issue for them are still impacted by the economy.
01:28:13.000Well, this could be, to your point, the most important thing in your life when you can't afford gas and groceries and whatever, but you're like, yeah, but I need to be able to abort.
01:28:23.000I listened to this interview a couple months ago with women who were, I think it was, they were in Texas and they had various, you know, Texas has a restriction on abortion and they were saying, you know, and I had to undergo this or I would want to leave state.
01:28:34.000And there's one woman who was like, You know, and I couldn't afford to leave the state to undergo an abortion.
01:28:40.000And I, like, wanted to pull my hair and it's like, you know, first off, the fact that, like, your only default option is abortion is sad.
01:28:45.000But on top of that, like, you're you're listing an economic complaint here that you don't have the money to travel.
01:28:58.000But, you know, even these women who are presenting these arguments as to why these, these are bad issues, touch on the economy as they, well, it's too expensive to have a kid right now.
01:29:07.000Oh, so you wouldn't abort your kid if it was less, it was more affordable, you could have children, the economy wasn't so bad.
01:29:12.000Like, they all can't pass, they all have to pass by this issue to make any sort of complaint.
01:29:18.000And I find that to be amazing that the DNC would prioritize this issue over everything
01:30:44.000He's like one of the only people I know that talks like that.
01:30:46.000Well, and the thing is, you're asking...
01:30:48.000You know, do the majority of Republicans support, I think, I would say the majority of Republicans probably support some sort of restriction.
01:30:54.000I don't think they all support a six-week ban, which tends to be the earliest, the heartbeat bans or stuff like that.
01:31:00.000But even in states where there are really intense restrictions, you know, six-week or whatever else, they still have exceptions for typically rape, incest, and life of the mother.
01:31:09.000And so there are there is a level of flexibility that there's being presented even in these like more intensive restrictive states.
01:31:17.000And so I think that just tells you that this is not an issue that Republicans are totally 100 percent dead step, you know, agreed upon.
01:31:25.000This is a complex issue that there should be a lot of nuance in debate, too, unlike the Democratic Party, which is like Fear mongering.
01:31:34.000I mean, Kamala always refers to any ban that's gotten passed as a Trump abortion ban, even though Roe v. Wade was overturned under Biden and Trump has said he wants it to be governed by the state and also he's not campaigning.
01:31:46.000Like, he is not an elected official from a lot of these states that have these bans that she's so critical of.
01:31:52.000And he said he doesn't support a national ban.
01:31:57.000Lila Rose is live action, you mentioned earlier, and I know she's full on like no abortions ever anywhere.
01:32:04.000And I mean even people commenting right now saying there should never be an exception for rape is no excuse for aborting a baby.
01:32:11.000I find it so authoritarian, and not that all authoritarianism is bad, but like, commanding what other people can and can't do with their bodies, and of course it's the body of the child, you want to protect the life of the innocent, I get it, but it's also the woman's body, she's over there, she's not you, like, focus on your own life.
01:32:27.000I would probably categorize myself more as post-liberal these days, especially listening to the likes of Carl Benjamin and such, and the Lotus Eaters are very smart, and I think I've come to realize over the past several years Post-liberalism is not conservatism.
01:32:41.000Conservatism has traditional values associated with it.
01:32:44.000Post-liberalism is more so, at least the things I think are interesting, is recognizing that what you just said, Ian, is just the destruction.
01:32:59.000A moral functioning society has to have boundaries by which people agree to operate within.
01:33:05.000And so telling someone that we're not going to let you cut your hands off, there's a reason for that, it's bad for you and you're wrong, extends to a bunch of other areas as well.
01:33:13.000However, the reality is, it's all about moral worldview.
01:33:17.000And there are people, I think, you know, when I was a lot younger, I genuinely believed principles dictated things.
01:33:22.000And so long as we understood the logic behind it, we'd accept it.
01:33:25.000But then you understand that it's actually morals which are structured in what you think will lead to the correct outcome and what will make lives better.
01:33:33.000And that's different for a lot of people.
01:33:34.000But if there's a collective group of people that are willing to adhere to a certain set of standards to avoid a certain detriment, then it has to be enforced.
01:33:43.000That is, if people all today decided, I want to cut my hand off because I have body dysmorphia, we say no.
01:33:50.000We're going to do what we can to prevent you from doing that.
01:34:01.000If you get more psychopaths, it's actually worse.
01:34:05.000But also, I'm riding up the coattails of 30 years of thinking abortion was fine.
01:34:09.000Not fine, I hate it, but it's accepted.
01:34:12.000So everything is a slippery slope always.
01:34:15.000So when you move in any direction, culturally and politically, You open the door to, uh, you push the boundaries of what would be considered extreme.
01:34:26.000So there was a period in this country where gay marriage was considered extreme.
01:34:29.000You go back 50 years or whatever, it was unheard of.
01:34:31.000Then it got to the point in this country where it became more socially acceptable for a variety of reasons.
01:34:35.000Proximity, people knew people who were LGBT or whatever and said, you know, they're fine, whatever, they don't cause me any problems.
01:34:43.000The argument from conservatives in 2008 with like, was it Prop 8 or whatever in California on gay marriage was, they're going to start teaching kids this stuff in school, and the Democrats said that's absurd, that'll never happen.
01:35:02.000Now, the argument from Democrats was, well, if there's a gay teacher with a picture of his husband on his desk, you have to explain to the kid what that is, right?
01:35:10.000So now it has to be included in curriculum.
01:35:29.000And so now we're at the point where we had a video yesterday where a guy who's HIV positive said he shouldn't have to tell anybody that he had HIV.
01:35:35.000And that when he hooked up with a guy and then told him after, the guy looked at him like he had been murdered.
01:35:39.000But Democrats actually are pushing laws that decriminalize knowingly engaging in behaviors which could spread HIV.
01:36:32.000Then someone says, I want to play the drums.
01:36:34.000It's not that it's right or wrong to play drums.
01:36:36.000I'm using it as an example of, if you open the door to one thing, What becomes more acceptable expands and moves around it.
01:36:42.000Yeah, but okay, so in an example where somebody intentionally gives someone HIV, something that they didn't want, something that permanently changes their life.
01:37:06.000I fall into the more libertarian, pro-choice-ish camp on this one, in that you can't violate one person's consent because of another person's requirements, but there's no moral answer.
01:37:19.000The idea that one life has to be sacrificed to the actions of another, and I recognize that conservative argument, and it's true, but there's no middle ground here.
01:37:27.000It's a razor-thin, one side or the other, end of story.
01:38:16.000And that's a super compelling argument for, you know, why we shouldn't just assume that because somebody's raped, they should terminate.
01:38:26.000I just can't wrap my head around forcing someone to carry a pregnancy from somebody that they never wanted on their, you know, I just can't.
01:38:35.000I have this view that a lot of people disagree with, the pro-life conservatives, that if there were two guys walking down the street and a mad scientist kidnapped one of them, or let's not do the mad scientist, right?
01:38:46.000Let's say you wake up in a hospital bed with tubes connecting your blood to another guy's blood and they're like, you never consented to this.
01:38:55.000But if you disconnect the blood now, that man dies.
01:38:57.000So you're not allowed to disconnect it.
01:39:12.000We should do another one with, like, hardcore pro-life, hardcore pro-choice, if we can find people like that, and then just sit in the middle and be like... I agree.
01:39:25.000The conservative side will offer up concessions to reduce abortion, and the pro-choice liberal side will say, never, no way, never gonna happen.
01:39:34.000Because that happened when we had Matt Bender on with Seamus, and Matt Bender called me pro-life.
01:39:39.000And Seamus is like, no, Tim is not pro-life.
01:39:42.000But Matt, progressive, is like, a woman, she was going to get an abortion at any point for any
01:39:48.000reason, no one can tell her otherwise. And I'm like, even if the baby is going to survive,
01:39:51.000like it's a nine month baby, like it's ready to be born, why kill it?
01:39:55.000So it doesn't matter, it's a woman's choice. And I'm like, that's not pro-choice, that's pro-death.
01:39:58.000We're going to go to Super Chat. So smash the like button, subscribe to this channel,
01:40:52.000And I'm like, it's really cool, you know, because Raymond superchats so often, he's very involved in Discord and the community, but he works here, and he's a smart guy, and he's good at what he does, and I thought he'd be great third chair, and he did a great job, and we're like, you know, Raymond, you're a smart guy.
01:41:06.000And, you know, we've thought about, we've got a lot of members who call in, who host before and after show, the challenges The very thin line of, we have people call, like email us being like, hey, we'd like to sponsor the show for $30,000.
01:41:22.000And we're like, great, what are you thinking?
01:41:36.000It can't be tied to the amount of money you pay or that you're in the elite membership or something like that.
01:41:41.000I think it might just be if you're a frequent caller that does a really good job and everyone in the community votes for it, we might do more of like a vote and we can invite the person out to be third chair.
01:41:55.000We have frequent callers who are very smart, and people who host the pre-shows and the after-shows, and they're starting their own podcast, too.
01:45:55.000And then I bring on a journalist and talk about it, and everyone's like, huh, Tim's crazy for thinking that's gonna happen.
01:45:59.000And I'm like, I'm just repeating the corporate press, not even a unique opinion to me.
01:46:02.000Last night I was opening a box, as a bit of a metaphor, and I full force ripped the box open, but I was too close to the wall, and I slammed my elbow into the wall, and it ripped open the skin, and I was bleeding, and I was like, how quickly life can change?
01:46:14.000And I just went, everything was about healing my elbow.
01:46:18.000Everything became, how fast something, the entire system can alter, and your priorities can shift.
01:46:23.000Well here's, here's, here's, Most people who suffer any kind of accident.
01:46:29.000It's a boring Saturday, you know, early evening with your friends and you're like, we'll go pick up some some pizzas and then, you know, go back and watch the fight or whatever.
01:47:49.000So it carried four people on the way there, and it carried one person on the way back, and so that's 180 miles before it went from 75 to 13.
01:47:57.000They say the range is 300 or so, but it is certainly not.
01:48:00.000Just so everyone understands, I had to rent this car.
01:48:41.000It's got two power outlets and a 40 amp, meaning you can power your fifth wheel, you can power your RV, and it can power your home, I think they said, for like three days.
01:48:49.000Can you store a second battery in the Cybertruck so you can swap it out?
01:49:06.000And I'm like, because sometimes we go to Home Depot, like, people have pickup trucks, I don't know, like, is every pickup truck hauling heavy machinery across the country?
01:49:15.000No, we get a pickup truck, because sometimes I gotta go to an air conditioner.
01:49:18.000You know, we go to Best Buy and get an air conditioner, and Cybertruck is just another truck, I guess.
01:51:02.000If you go too long, it's, you know, but I recommend submitting like a five minute video.
01:51:06.000You have to enter, you have to submit it to our Facebook group, our app Walkaway Social and on X. And you have to use the hashtag walkaway and the hashtag walkawaychallenge when you post and fill out your submission form.
01:51:18.000Are you taking into account the quality of the actual video content?
01:51:21.000Like if they have a swirling camera kind of on a track and stuff like that with super 8K?
01:51:26.000Yeah, you're asking all the right questions.
01:51:27.000So we're awarding some bonus points for creativity.
01:51:33.000But the main thing is that we don't want anyone to feel like they don't have a chance.
01:51:36.000The most important criteria is that your story be true.
01:51:41.000But if somebody does, you know, some amazing creative production, obviously, we're going to, you know, give some credit for that.
01:51:47.000And we'll give a few points as well for engagement.
01:51:49.000You know, if people are posting on TikTok and Truth Social, and you know, if they're spreading their own video, we give bonuses for that as well.
01:51:58.000But the first 50 people get 100 bucks to go to walkwaychallenge.com.
01:53:49.000If they came to him and said, you own $100 billion in shares, you owe us, like, and they went up a billion dollars, you owe us $250 million.
01:53:59.000He's gonna go, okay, well, where do I get that?
01:56:47.000We got Vito says, Ian, you say you would be alienating people if you said you were voting Trump.
01:56:51.000Shouldn't you, with the platform you have, be a leader to, uh, should you have to be a leader to show even a guy like you sees voting Trump is the clear way forward that it will help more?
01:57:01.000I think that the clear way forward is fixing the economy.
01:57:04.000I don't really care who the president is.
01:57:05.000I just want- You think Kamala is going to fix the economy?
01:57:08.000I don't think any of these presidents can do it.
01:57:09.000They need people like us that can do it.
01:57:11.000They need the private sector to really come together and organize.
01:57:14.000That's really where I'm focused, is creating art and building technology.
01:57:18.000So I don't want to get too embroiled in the politics because it can get pretty divisive.
01:57:22.000You think Kamala will not make the economy worse?
01:57:28.000If she takes an eye at what we're doing and she's like, ooh, I like that, let's install that, then maybe she'll- She's talking about a tax system that makes literally no sense and will just rip the economy to shreds.
01:57:38.000I mean, I'm not a big fan of that girl.
01:57:39.000I don't think she has any command experience.
01:58:19.000So that means, the evidence suggests, a Trump presidency would improve the economy, and we know for a fact that the Harris administration has done nothing.
01:58:27.000In the past three years, the economy has only gotten worse.
01:59:26.000When you have a chemically induced abortion, it's not like popping an ibuprofen, right?
01:59:33.000There are serious consequences, there are side effects, and this is just being treated like it's stepping into the bus to get your temporary tattoo at the DNC carnival.
02:00:02.000They were talking past each other, and Pete Buttigieg made a lot of points that clearly So one of the points made was, crime went up under Trump.
02:00:12.000Buttigieg goes, I don't think your viewers know that crime was up under Trump.
02:00:16.000And the response from Fox was like, deflection or whatever.
02:00:19.000And I'm just like, my response is, of course, absolutely.
02:00:24.000And during this time period, when we were all sitting here talking about the news and going through these podcasts, complaining about this, as you mentioned, the crime went up.
02:00:33.000We were wondering why it was Democrats kept saying defund the police, and why Kamala Harris was offering a bail fund on her Twitter account to people who had just rioted, and the worst riots.
02:00:42.000So yes, while Trump was president, crime went up, and we begged Trump, like, you must have wanted Pete to invoke the Insurrection Act, send in the National Guard, because that's his federal authority, I don't know what else you expect him to do, as the president, to deal with governor's issues.
02:01:19.000Anyway, we're going to the Members Only Show, so smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, and we're going to have that Members Only Show coming up for you now.

02:02:47.000A lot, I believe, is still on the ground at the DNC, so you can see his content and videos of all the shenanigans he always likes when there are protesters.
