On this week's episode of the show, we talk about Bernie Sanders' decision to throw his support behind Donald Trump, a viral video of Tim Walz pulling on his son's arm during a speech, and the latest on the latest in the Pennsylvania scandal involving the Secret Service.
00:00:25.000today announced that he would be throwing his support behind Donald Trump, and just minutes before the start of the show, he spoke with Trump at a rally, and it was incredible.
00:00:34.000I have tremendous respect for this man.
00:00:36.000I completely agree with everything as he laid it out.
00:00:39.000The speech he gave earlier today was incredible.
00:00:41.000He called out the Democrats as the party of Big Pharma, of war, of corruption.
00:01:50.000And then, of course, we've got Ian's Graphene Dream.

00:02:27.000Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more, we got Clint Russell.
00:02:30.000Yo, Clint Russell, host of Liberty Lockdown, co-host of The Best Political Show, co-host of Tower Gang.
00:02:36.000My list of credits is getting too long at this point.
00:02:39.000I also ran for the vice presidency in the Libertarian Party.
00:04:25.000says he is suspending his campaign and endorsing Donald Trump.
00:04:28.000The scion of one of the most famous Democratic families had attracted voters dismayed with a Trump-Biden rematch, but Biden's exit and Harris' nomination upended the race.
00:04:36.000Now, I don't care to read the Washington Post's filtering of what happened.
00:05:05.00016 months ago, in April of 2023, I launched my campaign for President of the United States.
00:05:12.000I began this journey as a Democrat, the party of my father, my uncle, the party which I pledged my own allegiance to long before I was old enough to vote.
00:05:24.000I attended my first Democratic convention at the age of six in 1960.
00:05:32.000And back then, the Democrats were the champions of the Constitution, of civil rights.
00:05:38.000The Democrats stood against authoritarianism.
00:05:42.000Against censorship, against colonialism, imperialism, and unjust wars.
00:05:49.000We were the party of labor, of the working class.
00:05:54.000The Democrats were the party of government transparency and the champion of the environment.
00:06:01.000Our party was the bulwark against big money interests and corporate power.
00:06:06.000True to its name, it was the party of democracy.
00:06:10.000As you know, I left that party in October because it had departed so dramatically from the core values that I grew up with.
00:06:20.000It had become the party of war, censorship, corruption, big pharma, big tech, big ag, and big money.
00:06:45.000And that's why, amazingly, he said he's going to keep his name on the ballot in blue states, and he wants you to vote for him there.
00:06:53.000He actually said there's polling suggesting a tie could take place and a contingent election could see him in the White House.
00:07:00.000But in battleground states, where he may be a spoiler, he's pulling back, taking his name out, and he's throwing his support behind Donald Trump.
00:07:19.000They would be astonished to learn of a Democratic Party presidential nominee who, like Vice President Harris, has not appeared in a single interview or an unscripted encounter with voters for 35 days.
00:07:33.000We've been listening to independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
00:07:36.000from Phoenix outlining what led him Yo, Fox did cut away eventually, but they played a lot of it through.
00:08:03.000How are the American people supposed to decide between Trump and Kamala when Kamala's not telling them anything, doing any interviews, and the media's covering up for her?
00:08:11.000Well, that's exactly the point I was going to go with, is that the contrast couldn't be more stark.
00:08:16.000Less than 24 hours between Kamala having her biggest moment of her political career and delivering nothing but platitudes, basically a repackaged hope and change, but now with joy and cackles or something.
00:08:30.000And then you contrast that with the incredible, just apparent sincerity that comes from RFK Jr.
00:08:35.000in an over hour-long speech that riffs and delves deep into topics that are kind of esoteric. His depth of
00:08:42.000knowledge when it comes to the chronic health issues that the
00:08:46.000American people, but he really hammered home the fact that it's really damaging our children. It was just so
00:08:53.000just potent and emotional and and obviously from
00:08:57.000from the heart. And the contrast between that and the contrived nature of the DNC for the past three
00:09:02.000days could not be more stark. If people are watching both, I don't see how they come away
00:09:07.000thinking anything other than the Democrat Party has left me.
00:09:10.000I'm so inspired by RFK Jr.'s speech, because he basically said so much of what we've said on this show.
00:09:42.000And so for all of us who feel this way, disaffected liberals, post-liberals, this man just stood up in front of the world and amplified everything we've been trying to say.
00:09:53.000So now when you're talking to your liberal family member, maybe they're older, maybe they're a boomer, you can say, hey, don't take my word for it.
00:10:38.000I mean, they are like, they are modern political royalty up there, if not superseding any living political family.
00:10:47.000So for him, the son of Bobby Kennedy and the nephew of a former assassinated president, who's beloved by Democrats, the old guard Democrats.
00:10:57.000I think he would still be a current assassinated president, just for clarification.
00:11:02.000But I think for it to come from his lips, as you're pointing out, it's so much more impactful.
00:11:07.000And, you know, even though I'm a second-gen, lifelong libertarian, I also miss the good Democratic Party.
00:11:15.000The aspects of them that did contrast the neoconservative wing of the GOP when they had lost their minds, when the Christian conservatives were kind of running amok in the 90s trying to ban some of my favorite music, things of that nature, and the Democrats were kind of on my side with these things.
00:11:32.000And I think that it took RFK a lot longer to realize it than it did me, but I think that this is the first step in a healing process that this nation desperately needs, and it needs self-sacrifice.
00:11:43.000I posted earlier that I had been considering voting for RFK Jr.
00:11:46.000for many months, primarily because I'm so frustrated with Trump's unwillingness to look back on what transpired in 2020 and just be a little bit more open and honest about it.
00:11:57.000But it's that level of candor and willingness to take a back seat, self-sacrifice, that like all of my concerns about Bobby Kennedy's sincerity and whether or not this was an ego campaign, they were all assuaged in the same moment that I decided I would probably vote for this guy.
00:12:14.000He was simultaneously telling me to vote for somebody else.
00:12:42.000If you read any of the biographies of the Kennedy children, like, they thought they were the coolest gang on the planet, and they liked being a part of it.
00:12:50.000And I think the fact that they are so quick to turn on RFK really tells you that this is a family
00:14:15.000He spent the past year-plus explaining in detail not just what he believes but how he knows that the intel agencies were responsible for the death of his father and his uncle.
00:14:25.000And then Donald Trump reaches out to him and he says, hey, you want to be their boss?
00:14:29.000That's the end of a movie that I couldn't have written myself.
00:14:45.000And unfortunately, they agree with me.
00:14:47.000I think that because if you're as convinced as I am that some sort of intelligence agency took a shot at Donald Trump, Because he will almost certainly skyrocket in the polls as people kind of realize that this has a real viable path to victory, I think that the odds that the intelligence agencies take another go at him increases exponentially, and it makes me very nervous.
00:15:10.000So I think that the razor's edge that the Trump campaign has to walk over the next 75 days is that they have to keep this race, or the polls, Close enough that the deep state, if you will, believes that it is within the parameters of fortification.
00:15:29.000However, it is actually close enough that it's not.
00:15:33.000And I don't know if they can find that balance where they still think they can do it, but they just happen to be wrong, and therefore they don't take Trump out.
00:15:42.000This is why I'm so nervous about the next 75 days, and even beyond that.
00:15:46.000I mean, even if you were to— With RFK's speech, This is, we could be looking at 2 to 5 percent is what he's polling at on average.
00:16:18.000It has been a really interesting week for the Trump campaign.
00:16:20.000I mean, Tim's already alluded to this, but the media cycle during the DNC, you know, with the RNC, so much of it was still dominated by the attempted assassination and what was going on at the convention.
00:18:20.000This was supposed to be Kamala Harris wrapping up Thursday night at the DNC with what Jonathan Shate calls the greatest acceptance speech I've ever seen.
00:18:30.000But during the week of the DNC, The news is stolen by Nicole Shannon saying, we're considering endorsing Trump.
00:18:38.000Everyone then turns their head from the DNC.
00:18:39.000The next day, sources leak, they're gonna do it.
00:18:42.000And then, the day after, Kamala Harris gives the speech, RFK steals the thunder with the speech in the evening, and then a primetime rally with Trump, ensuring that all of the headlines that we're gonna be sharing and we're gonna be talking about ain't gonna be Kamala Harris.
00:18:57.000I guarantee Kamala just lost a lot of voters too that weren't even planning on voting for RFK because if you think about what he was saying in his speech, like the Democratic Party literally runs in his veins, yet he's up here saying that they have completely alienated everything that we've ever stood for.
00:19:11.000And looking at like all the censorship that has happened, everybody knows McFarland is corrupt.
00:19:15.000Everybody knows these different things are going, or I shouldn't say everybody because a lot of people haven't woken up yet somehow.
00:19:21.000A Kennedy being up there exposing all of that and saying that the Democrats have left him?
00:19:27.000Like, I don't think people have really let that sit in, just how profound it is for a Kennedy to get up there and say that the Democratic Party is not what it used to be.
00:19:35.000Because many moderates, if you talk to them now, they identify as Kennedy Democrats still all these years later.
00:19:40.000And that side of the party is just completely annihilated.
00:19:42.000Well, that's exactly why the media came out all those 15 months ago when he first announced and tried to immediately kookify the guy.
00:19:50.000They tried to make it so that even though he makes incredibly cogent and compelling arguments, they wanted him to be persona non grata from Jump Street so that any of his very valid arguments would not be heard by those people because they still look to the corporate media and they They take their signals from them as to, who is reputable?
00:20:34.000And now to say that what were you guys are saying about who's that he's going to win with 2.2% for sure, like in a free and open and fair election.
00:21:38.000Yeah, no, I think, I mean, you definitely could be right.
00:21:41.000Yeah, I mean, I share your concern, but this has always been my thesis, and I never really bought into Trump's narrative about the 2020 election and Vote Flipping Day.
00:21:50.000Not that I didn't buy into it, I just didn't have evidence to prove it out.
00:21:54.000What I am confident of, though, and they were brazen enough to brag about it in that Notorious Times
00:22:00.000article where they talked about the cabal of elites that worked in tandem behind the scenes not to
00:22:05.000steal the election but rather to fortify the election. It's such an absurdity. It's like a
00:22:11.000Bond villain. They have to tell you what they're going to do. I want to make a point somewhat
00:22:16.000outside of this conversation to stress how important it is that right now we get a candidate at
00:22:23.000least, at least, who's talking talking about ending war.
00:22:26.000Ukraine has invaded the Kursk region of Russia.
00:24:15.000And it's just a catastrophic loss of life.
00:24:18.000You know, from Libertarian, I'm a hardcore non-interventionist anti-war person.
00:24:22.000That, to me, is the most compelling argument for Donald Trump.
00:24:25.000And I still believe that despite the fight, fight, fight moment is probably the most courageous and will go down in history as the most memorable aspect of this campaign.
00:24:34.000For me, the most memorable thing or the most important thing he said was when he was doing the CNN town hall and he said, I just want people to stop dying.
00:25:02.000They want to control Russia so that Russia can't overcharge Europe for gas and energy so that we can expand the NATO power and economic bloc so that we can create a quote-unquote new world order.
00:25:12.000And I'm not talking about a quote a new world order as a proper noun.
00:25:16.000I'm talking about the What George H.W.
00:25:19.000Bush said in the early 90s about how the liberal economic order would transform into some kind of new type of world order.
00:26:11.000Negotiating with these other powers, we got no new wars for the first time in my life.
00:26:17.000And so when I'm looking at that, and I'm looking at Kamala Harris, who's in the administration now, and we're on the brink of World War III, I'm like, Trump, please.
00:26:24.000That's why it's crazy that Kamala Harris really got on that stage yesterday and made it seem like Trump was this Communist authoritarian who started all these wars and created all these conflicts.
00:26:33.000It's like this was during your time in the White House.
00:26:36.000I don't think enough people are paying attention to the fact that Kamala Harris acts like she has not been in the White House the last three and a half years.
00:26:42.000Like you have been a part of every negative decision that has led to our downfall, but you want to blame Trump when he hasn't been in the White House since 2020.
00:26:49.000And can you imagine the girl boss attitude if she goes to have a negotiation with Putin, right?
00:26:54.000The, I'm speaking, like, this is not someone I want representing our country in a potentially tense situation.
00:27:00.000She's not charming enough to get elected by her own party fairly.
00:27:04.000I don't want her representing us, especially with people who feel like we've been actively funding their enemy.
00:27:11.000It was a couple years ago, but she was actually asked about the Russia-Ukraine war, and she goes in this long soliloquy about how Ukraine is a smaller country, and Russia is a larger country, and, you know, she's just such an imbecile.
00:27:23.000It's embarrassing that they would even attempt to foist her upon us, but you guys are all obviously correct that she would be an existential danger, not just to the American people, but to the entire globe, put in the role of negotiating peace.
00:27:33.000We got some big news that dropped just before the show.
00:27:38.000Breaking, President Trump announces he will establish a presidential commission on assassinations to be headed by RFK with full power to declassify all documents related to JFK, RFK, and J13.
00:28:08.000I want to see him do that for poetic reasons, but I really do want him to be involved with Health and Human Services, right?
00:28:12.000Someone who is really passionate about fixing the problems that we have with Big Pharma and our food supply, I think that would be fascinating.
00:28:19.000Because I just think so many people who are in that position right now are sort of like from the system.
00:28:23.000They've been a bureaucrat or they've worked for pharmacies.
00:28:25.000I bet, though, the head of the CIA, if you could have the secret police investigating those people, that would be very important.
00:28:31.000Because if there really are big bureaucrats manipulating our food supply,
00:28:35.000the FDA might not even be able to figure it out, but the CIA can get down to business.
00:28:39.000Yeah, the question—sorry—the question I'm asking, though, is after
00:28:44.000RFK gets in there, he clears house, he exposes everything, because at this point,
00:28:48.000like, we all pretty much know the CIA killed JFK, let's be honest.
00:28:52.000But when all of that gets declassified, then what?
00:28:56.000Because it's about to be turmoil when all these secrets start to unravel, because I can only imagine the things that we don't know, or that we have been completely led astray about.
00:29:46.000Soon after I was, I can't even believe I have to say this, nearly assassinated in Pennsylvania last month, Bobby called me to express his best wishes.
00:31:31.000Just imagine, he's been on this Homer's Odyssey to figure out who took out his father and his uncle, and then he's just all of a sudden given the power to declassify the documents to actually prove out the case.
00:32:11.000Trump is saying, you're finally going to get the documents about who killed your father.
00:32:16.000I mean, just imagine how you would feel if you lost your dad and someone said, the keys, all the answers you've been waiting for your entire life, are standing right in front of you.
00:32:25.000This is Bobby Kennedy Sr., is his dad, got sassed by Sirhan Sirhan, this is the official narrative.
00:32:33.000In a kitchen, like he's walking through a kitchen after a speech, and some guy runs up to him, but there's a guy behind him with a gun too.
00:32:40.000And we talked about this a little bit before the show, but you know, R.K.
00:32:44.000was repeatedly denied Secret Service protection, and I know the Biden administration post-bac said, you know, initially when he asked for it over a year ago, you're only supposed to get it 120 days before the election.
00:32:52.000He got it less than 100 days before the election because of the assassination on Trump's life.
00:32:57.000The reason that provision exists at all, the reason that Secret Service protection is offered to major presidential candidates, is because his dad was assassinated.
00:33:05.000I can't imagine being in this position where these historical precedents aren't just because of someone you've heard about on the news, but because they are active threats to your family that cause all of these rules and ways that we view presidential and political security to change.
00:34:30.000had more people ask me please sir release the documents yeah I don't think
00:34:36.000he says it Kennedy I don't know and this is a trip for the show
00:34:39.000Clinton, you mentioned he they asked Trump before why he says in honor of Bobby, not that he's actually giving him the right.
00:34:46.000They asked Trump before why he didn't release the documents.
00:34:49.000And you said that Trump, his response was, if you saw what I saw, you wouldn't have released them either.
00:34:53.000That's what he told Judge Napolitano, and I take him at his word that that's how it went down.
00:34:58.000Now, the question is, what did he see?
00:34:59.000And my obvious suspicion or conclusion that I come to is that, well, it's because the agency that is responsible is American, and it still exists.
00:35:10.000Because otherwise, why would you not tell the truth?
00:35:12.000I think that's why Lyndon Johnson wanted to shut it down, because it would have caused a civil war if they saw that our own agency, or the mafia, was involved with our own agency, or the Russians were involved with our own mafia.
00:35:22.000According to Roger Stone, Lyndon was in on it.
00:36:00.000I mean, this is what we're waiting for, is to know for a fact.
00:36:03.000We need these documents to be declassified so we actually know what happened.
00:36:06.000Yeah, look, if someone asked me to put money on the table and your bet was CIA did it or, you know, official narrative, I'm going CIA did it every time.
00:36:15.000Maybe the mob, because the Kennedys were hard on the mob.
00:36:57.000You can go there and you can look at, like, the spot on the ground where the bullet hit JFK, but really what's fascinating is that so many people go there and have questions and talk about it.
00:37:06.000If you stand on the sidewalk outside where you can look at where the shot was, you can hear people talking about, like, oh, I don't think this really happened.
00:37:13.000And so the fact that this is something that Trump wants to talk about at all, or that RFK potentially could be kind of leading narrative on, I think draws in a lot of voters who are not necessarily political, but do not trust our government.
00:37:27.000I think a lot of people have lost faith in any form of government in this country.
00:37:37.000I think just run-of-the-day Americans who, you know, they might cast a ballot, they're maybe not consistent, but they look at their local, state, and federal government and say, you do not serve my interests, you serve your own interests.
00:37:48.000I think the fact that there would be transparency on this front would be sort of… a way to connect with with this enchanted American. I think
00:37:55.000that's the thing that I like most about Kennedy is he has kind of the the childlike, I say this not
00:37:59.000in a condescending or insulting way, but he has a childlike naivete that these institutions at
00:38:05.000their core are intended to benefit the people and that they're capable of that and
00:39:00.000But anyways, that was a weird tangent.
00:39:01.000I just wanted to say, I do like the idea that if we're not going to go full libertarian minarchism, I like the idea of having a true believer who's trying to actually really reform these institutions.
00:39:11.000All I can think about right now is getting drunk and celebrating and ordering a bunch of pizzas.
00:39:45.000It's like that's what the British did on Christmas Eve, right before George Washington sailed across the Delaware and slaughtered them all.
00:39:50.000They all got drunk partying because they thought they had it in the bag.
00:39:55.000I think the other interesting angle with this announcement from Trump is that he's gone out of his way to not badmouth the Secret Service, even though they failed in such an egregious fashion that he nearly lost his life.
00:40:05.000And I can't decide if it's that he doesn't know what I know already about the details, because I've been researching this nonstop to actually figure out what transpired that day, or if he's afraid of them.
00:40:17.000Or, if he's biding his time and he's being a tactician about this, realizing that he still has to rely on them to keep him alive, and he doesn't want to call them to the mat, while he's still relying on them for his own safety.
00:40:28.000Because it's like, that's a very dangerous position to be in.
00:40:31.000It's like, these are the only people whose entire job is to protect you, and they're also the people who are in cahoots to try to kill you.
00:41:16.000This is the president we're talking about.
00:41:19.000It's the video of him climbing on the roof for me because he's this 20 year old, unathletic, skinny, scrawny kid who can barely even hold this gun.
00:41:28.000You see him dragging his body up on the roof.
00:41:30.000There's people yelling like, he's on the roof, he's on the roof.
00:41:33.000It's like, there's no way that Trump hasn't seen that.
00:41:35.000There's no way that people in the Trump administration haven't seen that.
00:41:40.000There was breaking reports this morning that the Secret Service higher-ups had told lower-level Secret Service agents not to request additional security details.
00:41:50.000Apparently, they only authorize—this is breaking news this morning, so I have not had a chance to verify it, but— Let's pull it up.
00:42:32.000Yeah, well then add to it that Donald Trump, since he left the White House, had not had a counter-sniper team on his detail.
00:42:39.000The first time they finally do it, and by the way, based off of these disclosures, it's also included that it was not until 24 hours prior to this event that they finally authorized a counter-sniper team to be on his detail.
00:42:51.000And 24 hours later, a bullet grazes the right side of his head.
00:42:55.000How is it even possible that that's coincidental?
00:42:58.000Is it true that that counter-sniper team did not take the first shot in retaliation?
00:43:01.000They did not take the lethal shot, is my understanding, but I don't know for sure that that's been conclusively answered.
00:43:07.000I heard today that five Secret Service agents resigned.
00:43:14.000In connection to this, I mean, the head of the Secret Service right now is saying, well, we don't want to rush to any conclusions, which I know you're not rushing.
00:43:25.000But, you know, I think something you were mentioning before is that Trump does go out of his way to praise Secret Service agents that he works with closely.
00:43:32.000And the Trump family was doing this at the RNC as well.
00:43:35.000I find it interesting because so much of what happened seems to be a difference between the Secret Service that's sort of headquartered in Washington operating and the agents that are actively with the Trump family.
00:43:47.000I'm not saying that they couldn't all be working together or getting some kind of memo, but there seems to be obviously a divide in communication because one of the reports that came out was that, you know, Trump's team had no idea that there was an identified threat before they sent him out on stage.
00:44:03.000And it makes me think of kind of of Trump's history with staffing. He would back people that,
00:44:08.000you know, I didn't think were good, I think a lot of people were critical of, but he kind of
00:44:11.000stood by them. There is a loyalty streak to Donald Trump that I think sometimes might be misplaced.
00:44:17.000Yes, but I don't think that loyalty streak extends to him losing his life, and he almost did.
00:44:23.000So I think he's I personally lean towards him him biding his time.
00:44:26.000But I just want I want the you know, the listeners to remember that it was 4548 hours later, that the RNC goes off and you would have had a different nominee while the nation was in mourning, they would have clearly foisted Nikki Haley upon us while also painting
00:44:40.000this absurd, contrived narrative that the Iranians were responsible for the attack on Donald
00:45:24.000In defense of the crazies, if there was a president I thought that could pull that off, it would be the guy who was in the WWE for years, because that's what wrestlers do.
00:46:02.000And then consider the other angle of this.
00:46:04.000If you're going to do that, that means that you've sold out.
00:46:07.000Because if you remember, CNN and all these organizations that had never been covering Trump's rallies suddenly were all covering that rally?
00:46:15.000Based off of what I read it was, but I don't know.
00:46:19.000The day that happened, everybody was saying that, and I could not find any clips from CNN or other outlets that were live during the rally.
00:46:26.000It was live streaming on their website.
00:46:27.000I don't know if it was on their channels.
00:46:42.000And that's what a lot of people were thinking, is that if this is a put on by Trump that Trump is in on, well, then you don't see this story buried over the next three weeks.
00:46:51.000You see it upsold by the media because they have Apparently, you know, become an unlikely team.
00:46:58.000Yeah, I think even defending that narrative that it was fake is a mistake.
00:47:02.000It's like defending that he pooped his pants.
00:47:04.000I was jokingly defending it, just to be clear.
00:47:05.000But like, I don't even want to dame the conversation with respect because it's so asinine to consider that.
00:47:12.000Xavier, do you have an opinion on Trump's assassination attempt and how it affected independent voters?
00:47:20.000I think it woke a lot of people up to just how irrational and extreme our voting process, or just our election process has gotten.
00:47:26.000Any sane person isn't wanting to see a presidential candidate get assassinated.
00:47:31.000Like as much as I can't stand Kamala Harris, I would never wish that upon her.
00:47:35.000So I do think it's swayed a lot more independent voters to...
00:47:39.000Look deeper into, okay, what is actually happening here?
00:47:41.000Why are they so desperate to take him out?
00:47:43.000And what is it that they're so afraid of him doing that they're trying to do this for?
00:47:47.000But I definitely think it was something that the secret service was in on.
00:47:51.000I think that's pretty clear just based on the evidence that's going on.
00:47:54.000But like you were saying, Ian, to say that it was, and I know you weren't saying it in a serious manner, but entertaining the idea that Trump was in on it, it's just not worth it.
00:48:02.000What would he have benefited from that?
00:48:04.000It would have—that so easily could have went the worst possible way.
00:48:09.000So I don't think that there's any way that that would have benefited Trump.
00:48:12.000Then you also have to believe that Trump is okay with some of his most ardent supporters taking live fire directly behind him.
00:48:18.000It's an absurd— Of course these people think that, though.
00:48:20.000These Democrat voters— Well, because they think he's a monster, yeah.
00:49:26.000Bobby should go on the podcast market hard now.
00:49:29.000Now's the time to keep this message amplifying of why he's- I think we'll see a lot more of him for sure.
00:49:36.000I think, you know, partially now because he is- A part of the Trump campaign in a way, and I think he does have an influence with a lot of people, but also because he said, I'm going to take my name off the state, off the ballot in swing states, but I'm staying on everywhere else.
00:49:49.000Like he is actively still kind of on the campaign trail, which is a very interesting position to be in.
00:49:56.000I think Democrats do live in TV world.
00:49:57.000And you know, this is partially because they Bring out every celebrity they can during their convention.
00:50:02.000But also, one of the people that made me laugh, I can't remember the actor's name, but he spoke on Night One, and he placed that terrible president on the show, Scandal.
00:50:10.000Like, their best choices are just soap opera-like fake politicians, and I think that's really how they govern a lot of what they're doing.
00:50:17.000It's all viewed through the lens of entertainment in Hollywood.
00:50:20.000House of Cards, that was a show that got people primed to hate a corrupt president.
00:50:25.000Marvel movies get the hero-villain narrative embedded in people's minds.
00:50:29.000And then what did they do for Harris's campaign?
00:50:31.000They were like, how can we allude to any popular pop singer right now, right?
00:50:34.000Like, that is really their game plan, to make it seem like she's not just like this mysterious figure who suddenly popped up after kind of being semi-absent in the White House that she's got her name on for the last three years.
00:50:45.000They're making it seem like she's your cool trendy aunt.
00:50:50.000I think one of the other lessons that we learned from the assassination attempt is that left-wing and legacy media overall, to be honest, is not doing a good job of adapting to the fact that we are able to access information much faster than they can craft a narrative.
00:51:03.000Because right after they tried to shoot Donald Trump, or literally shot him, you see all these headlines talking about it was glass, or something bounced up, or there was loud noise.
00:51:12.000Like those fraudulent headlines that Really, someone in Gen Z, that was insulting to my intelligence.
00:51:17.000You really think that you're just going to put a headline in front of me saying that there were loud noises?
00:51:21.000Or I even saw one saying that Trump fell.
00:51:32.000They can't control the way that we are perceiving information when we're able to access it now in real time.
00:51:37.000Here's another thing to add to RFK Jr.' 's endorsement.
00:51:41.000is an open door now for a lot of people who can now feel safe to somewhat get behind Trump.
00:51:47.000So there could be personalities who are not pro-Trump before who might be like, well, you know, I still have some deep concerns about him, but I, but I trust Bobby.
00:51:54.000And so this opens a pathway now where he's bridged some of the more moderates who might've been scared to speak up, might actually speak up.
00:52:02.000Well, it puts me in that position where I, you know, I was, I was heavily concerned.
00:52:07.000Like I thought that, that Well, I like Trump obviously better than Kamala.
00:52:13.000I still thought that what Bobby brought to the table kind of broadening the Overton window on topics that I really care about.
00:52:19.000I was like, I might just vote for this dude, even though I disagree with him on many things too, obviously.
00:52:24.000But now he's off the table and it's like, all right, well, it's communism versus Trump.
00:52:30.000It's not a real hard selection at that point.
00:52:33.000And if Trump brings RFK into his administration for Health and Human Services to address those issues, that's basically Trump saying, I might not admit it, but I'll put a guy you like in charge of it.
00:55:22.000This is why I always tell people, like, stop attacking people who haven't... Even if Taylor Swift came out and she had those cookies or whatever for the Democrats or whatever, even if she made the endorsement, you don't insult, attack.
00:55:39.000You don't do what the left does and insult and attack people.
00:55:40.000I think going back to your point about why RFK Jr.
00:55:44.000is such an interesting attack vector with this endorsement is exactly that, that these people that have not been woken up yet, they have been propagandized so aggressively that the Democrats are the defenders of democracy, that if you don't support them, then you're basically supporting fascism.
00:55:58.000comes out and very eloquently states that, in fact, it's the complete It's a powerful, compelling argument that really dismantles the top narrative they've been running on, defending democracy.
00:56:08.000Trump out of power—not Trump, but they did that to Trump too, but they
00:56:11.000palace-cooed Biden out of power and then foisted Kamala Harris onto the
00:57:27.000Biden administration brought her out to represent some sort of diversity role and to, you know, wave and dance when need be.
00:57:34.000But they didn't even trust her with anything.
00:57:36.000They made her the border czar and then sort of shunted her to the side.
00:57:39.000Like, no one wants Kamala Harris representing them, including Democrats.
00:57:43.000That's why they didn't pick her the first chance they had.
00:57:45.000For all the gamers out there, I would give Kamala a 14 charisma, if you play D&D, with zero persuasion, and maybe like two points in intimidation.
00:58:15.000Michael Malice exemplified this so well at the end of yesterday's episode as to why he doesn't want to listen to Kamala Harris.
00:58:22.000And he was like, because I can say something sincere like me saying, oh, I'm really excited to listen to you guys on the Members Only show.
00:58:47.000I think she gets a bonus plus two to her charisma, but the thing is, I think Michael doesn't want to listen to her because if you listen to an evil person with charisma, you can get indoctrinated into their evil ways.
01:00:56.000Kamala Harris is only persuasive to people who have not paid attention in the last three and a half years, and to people who don't know anything about politics.
01:01:03.000Because when I was watching her speech last night, if I was just stepping back objectively, and I didn't know anything about her, I'd be like, okay, like, She's got some charisma because she's decent when she's in front of a teleprompter.
01:01:13.000She's not good at speaking off the cuff.
01:01:14.000She's not good at answering questions.
01:01:16.000So that's why she's not going to do interviews.
01:01:18.000It said it was easier for her to do the meme approach, like the whole Bratz summer thing.
01:01:22.000Like that was a desperate way of trying to win over Gen Z. Because the thing is, is Gen Z is like the first generation that has grown up knowing to not trust the media.
01:01:31.000Because other generations, it took them quite a few years of being lied to, to finally recognize that if it's on legacy media, there's a good chance that it's a blatant lie.
01:01:40.000Her acceptance speech was probably, at most, a quarter of RFK's speech today.
01:01:47.000And it seemed to me that he was ad-libbing much of that.
01:03:27.000And I honestly think Joe Biden would have spoken for longer.
01:03:30.000And that's amazing because every speech he gave got shorter and shorter.
01:03:33.000I'm sure all of us at this table have said this at some point.
01:03:36.000The more she talks, the more she loses.
01:03:39.000And they know this, and it couldn't be more obvious.
01:03:41.000I would not be surprised if they told who, I don't know if they have applause signs in the amphitheater or if they just told people like higher ups or people in control of each section.
01:03:51.000Look, we are going to give her the longest applause break in human history, just as she takes the stage, because we only have her plan to talk for 15 minutes.
01:03:58.000We want three minutes that to be applause.
01:04:00.000And then every time she says anything remotely good, we want another standing ovation by us 20 more seconds.
01:04:05.000I mean, I bet if you counted it, she said like maybe a thousand words.
01:04:16.000I just really want to hone in on that.
01:04:18.000If you watched the beginning of her speech, it was thank you, thank you, thank you.
01:04:21.000She went on with that for a solid two minutes.
01:04:24.000And part of the breaks too, I keep saying this, Kamala Harris has social anxiety.
01:04:28.000I know a nervous laugh when I hear one.
01:04:30.000And I'm sure you guys heard about the rapid turnover she was having with her staff.
01:04:34.000Well, if you listen to what a lot of her staff members said, is that every time that there was a big event or somewhere that she had to show up for, she would make her staff pretty much do like a rehearsal of like, let's say I was walking into this room and she would have her staff sit in all the seats that you guys would so that she could just pretend on how she would have conversations with these different people.
01:04:54.000She's an extremely insecure yet dangerously ambitious politician who keeps getting put into these positions to let other people do the work.
01:05:25.000It's a clip from the DNC of Tim Waltz pulling on his son's arm.
01:05:31.000And a lot of people are suggesting it shows that he's an abusive parent, but others suggest he's just trying to pull his son away from a teleprompter from bumping into it.
01:05:46.000I don't know who made this, but everyone's sharing it.
01:05:48.000He pulls him pretty hard, and then you look at his face, and a lot of people have said he's got a grimace on his face, he looks frustrated, he's pulling his son, his son's got a mental, uh, that face he makes.
01:05:57.000His son's got a learning disability of some sort.
01:06:03.000This story where Gus Waltz cried when his dad said that he loved him, and we'll play the clip for you.
01:06:11.000Okay, so they're just doing stupid music, is that it?
01:06:13.000I thought this was a sweet moment, honestly.
01:06:15.000Yeah, when I saw this clip going around, you have Gus Waltz crying when his dad calls him out and says, I love you.
01:06:24.000And so I talked about it on my morning show, and I said, it's actually one of the most heartwarming things, you know, this kid sees his dad's up on stage, and he says, that's my son, I love him, and he's crying.
01:06:33.000My only thing was, I started laughing, like, your dad's lying about everything up there, lying about IVF and all this stuff, trying to make people think that his family got IVF when they did not, because it's political.
01:06:44.000But I'm not going to rag on the kid for this.
01:06:46.000However, however, In this debate, when people show Tim Waltz yanking his son and having that look on his face that some have suggested is a look of frustration, others have said he's just pulling him away from the teleprompter.
01:07:16.000So, regardless of what you think, the argument, the debate is this.
01:07:22.000The reason why Gus Waltz started crying when his dad said he loved him is because they believe, people are arguing, this is a sign of abuse.
01:07:30.000A kid who grew up with a learning disability from parents who are frustrated having to deal with him, I got to imagine, or I said I could imagine, I'm not trying to take sides on this debate, but you got a kid with a learning disability and the parents are like, stop, it's like this, stop doing this, stop!
01:08:17.000I wouldn't be surprised to find out that the guy, and I'm talking about Tim Waltz, who puts on these over-the-top smiles is actually a jerk behind the scenes.
01:08:25.000I wouldn't be surprised to find that out.
01:08:31.000Because when I saw him crying and clapping and pointing, saying, that's my dad, I laughed and I'm like, all right, you know, but I'm not gonna get mad at a kid for cheering for his dad.
01:08:40.000That being said, wouldn't we assume 99% of people would stand up and wave when his dad was like, that's my son, I love him.
01:08:59.000He has a nonverbal learning disability, which impacts his ability to learn and communicate, but it doesn't, like, he, he can talk.
01:09:06.000It's not like he's, from what I read about it, and obviously, like, they haven't given us a very specific diagnosis other than, like, very intense ADHD and a nonverbal learning disability.
01:09:15.000I mean, if I was 17 and my dad was, you know, giving his acceptance speech to be the Vice President of the United States, and he talked very glowingly about how much he loved his family and me, I would probably react.
01:10:15.000But also, I really don't want to talk about what politicians are doing, or like, their relationship with their kids, unless we're talking about Ashley Biden's diary, because we still don't have the clarity on that that we deserve.
01:10:24.000And she introduced Biden on the first day.
01:10:36.000And this time they're bringing out Ashley because they can't bring out Hunter, right?
01:10:39.000I mean, I really wonder what would have happened if, you know, you know, Beau Biden hadn't gotten his, you know, terminal cancer diagnosis.
01:10:45.000I think they wouldn't lean so heavily on these ne'er-do-well children.
01:10:49.000And what's with Ashley Biden's accent?
01:13:44.000You know, I mean, I got this one friend who is from Poland, and then he learned English, a second language, when he was like a young kid, and so he's constantly making up words.
01:14:51.000Similarly, the Tim Walz thing, like, abuse allegations are serious, right?
01:14:54.000Like, they're not something we should take lightly because so many children suffer at the hands of people who are in charge of their lives, you know, their caregivers.
01:15:01.000But it is becoming more common to look at these families and be like, there's something weird going on here.
01:15:07.000And unfortunately, the diary is one of those things that people felt like Biden was a weird guy.
01:15:12.000And then when you get this diary that she has now confirmed was hers, like, it just makes people think, like, what are you actually selling to the American public?
01:15:20.000And what was Joe doing to that dog in the shower?
01:16:43.000I first saw this and I immediately quote tweeted it and I was like, I just obliterated the dude.
01:16:48.000And then someone in my replies goes, well, look at where the teleprompter is.
01:16:52.000And I hadn't even seen the teleprompter before.
01:16:53.000So then I went back and I watched it very closely, like this is a pruder film.
01:16:56.000I was like rewinding it back and forth, trying to figure out what I had actually witnessed.
01:17:00.000And I concluded that I'm not sure, but I'm going to try and give the benefit of the doubt because I feel like the Democrats would, you know, paint Trump as the worst things imaginable if something like that were to
01:17:10.000happen. And well I think that his policies are atrocious and that we ought to be condemning
01:17:14.000him for that. Unless we actually have definitive evidence that he's abusing his kid, let's not go
01:17:18.000there. Well and I thought Seamus of Freedom Tunes had a really good tweet about this where he
01:17:22.000was like, you know, I should pull it up and quote it better. I'm not going to do justice to his dandy
01:17:28.000But he said something to the effect of like, oh yes, making fun of a vice president's child is a new low for Republicans, but it's an old low for Democrats.
01:17:36.000And then he had this screenshot of I think a HuffPost article where they point out that when Sarah Palin was nominated to be the VP, there was a Family Guy episode making fun of the fact that she had a kid with Down syndrome.
01:17:47.000And so it's actually like this moral high ground that someone is pulling out right now.
01:17:51.000I think, you know, we could all be better to the children of politicians who don't opt to be in the spotlight, right?
01:17:57.000Well, mine are children of politicians.
01:17:58.000I remember this was Barron, who was 12 at the time, and I remember being in a corporate office that I worked for, and they were like, can we make fun of him?
01:18:31.000Jordan Peterson was just talking about anger with Theo Vaughn.
01:18:33.000It was like eight months ago when I was watching the interview last night and about how powerful and useful anger can be if you get it behind you, like, get thee behind me, Satan, and how you can use that to propel you up.
01:18:44.000I always thought he was tall because Melania put, I think it was either caviar or like gold bar cream on him as a baby, some like crazy expensive moisturizer.
01:18:52.000And she was like, for my precious baby, which I think is like the most Melania Trump thing ever of all time.
01:18:57.000That's the most Trump thing ever to bathe your infant in caviar.
01:20:02.000You know, they haven't said officially where, where Barron's going to college.
01:20:05.000What if he is about to be on like some crazy, like, like University of Kentucky basketball Nephilim don't have good ball handling skills, so I don't think he's... Doesn't matter.
01:20:14.000Because they're just closer to the net, that's why.
01:20:17.000You don't really have to dribble when you're center, so... There you go.
01:20:23.000Well, I'm trying to get his official height.
01:20:26.000I'll say I think going back where you're saying earlier about like the moral high ground of like saying like it's both sides are making fun of the other sides like kids and the kids of VPs it reminds me of there was the debate after Trump got shot because so many people were online like making fun of the fact that he got shot like I even saw people in my own family because a large portion of my family's radical left Saying how they wish the shooter was black because then they wouldn't have missed.
01:20:47.000And I was repulsed by that, obviously, but then I start seeing people pull up screenshots of talking about when everything happened with Nancy Pelosi's husband or talking about when Democrats were dying after getting the vaccine and people were celebrating on the right.
01:20:58.000So that is one of those things when it comes to just being a moral, decent person.
01:21:03.000I think we all kind of need to do a better job on that.
01:21:06.000And rather than pointing the finger like, Oh, well, why are you making fun of us now?
01:21:09.000And then it just this back and forth, it just won't end.
01:21:11.000Yeah, just to be clear, when I was concerned about Mr. Wall's son there, I was not in any way demonizing his kid.
01:21:18.000I was concerned about him and his treatment of his son.
01:21:23.000If I thought there was actually valid concerns that Donald Trump was abusing his kid, I'd be like, all right, yeah, that's probably a fair conversation to be had.
01:21:31.000Which is why I think the conversation about adult Ashley Biden's diary is so different than a lot of these things.
01:21:37.000And I mean, I think one of the challenges with, you know, sudden new public figures is, you know, Walz deserves probably a lot of criticism.
01:22:01.000It's hard to say what that looks like in the home life.
01:22:03.000And I think especially in this case, you know, they're all going to be under very intense scrutiny and we just can't make a definitive statement based off one moment.
01:22:29.000Vance for being a former never-Trumper, but, you know, I said this however many weeks ago when they announced that he was the VP.
01:22:36.000I actually like the redemption arc, the idea that you would have someone who was like, yeah, I really didn't like Trump and I watched things go well and so I changed my mind and I'm in this position now.
01:22:45.000I think it's better to have someone who is open and honest about converting.
01:22:50.000At least he acknowledges the evolution as opposed to the corporate media who lies to you for A year plus, maybe three years straight, that Joe Biden is right as rain.
01:23:00.000And then overnight, they all just flip the script and they tell the truth.
01:23:04.000And they don't make any concessions, but J.D.
01:23:16.000Well, Tim Murtaugh, who's back on the Trump campaign, he was a 2020 communications director, he had this column up that was like, any journalist that acts surprised lied to you and they should immediately leave the profession.
01:23:29.000And if they didn't realize that they're bad at their job, and if they knew the whole time, which we know they all did, because everyone on the right knew about it, I don't understand how it could be so obvious to one side and not the other.
01:23:41.000These people function strictly off of a narrative frame set by their corporate media masters.
01:23:46.000But what's weird is that the corporate media themselves, some of them I do think actually buy into it.
01:23:52.000They're so deep in the Kool-Aid that they forget that they're actually just propagandists and they start to actually think they're telling the truth.
01:24:00.000And I think they think they're doing a service.
01:24:01.000Like, I don't know if you feel this way because, you know, you've come from a different background, but I think a lot of young journalists will say, like, saying these things is good.
01:24:11.000I'm helping the greater good when I say these things, even though the things that they're presenting are inherently false or they're not doing enough to fact check them.
01:24:18.000Well, when you portray your opposition as the epitome of evil, which is what they've done with Donald Trump, well, then certainly your The limit of response that you can set for yourself obviously increases because you are up against abject evil.
01:24:34.000It's like if I was in a, you know, facing a communist takeover, like, yeah, I'm going to probably turn down my morality meter because I have to survive.
01:24:45.000So I think they've done it to themselves, but the weird thing is that it's contrived.
01:24:49.000He's not actually that threat that they believe him to be.
01:24:51.000Yeah, man, it's the danger of, like, if there's a fire out of control, a wildfire, they'll do a controlled burn to prevent the wildfire from continuing.
01:24:59.000If they think Trump is a wildfire, they think that controlling a burn is legit, is, like, ethical, when in reality, like, what do you—if there's no actual— Unfortunately, they stopped doing the— I thought you guys were right about not going hard on the family of politicians and just maybe not going hard on people.
01:25:19.000Because I think what's happening is a lot of people that are outside the system are wondering, like, who am I going to support in 2028 when I can finally vote?
01:25:28.000They're looking at, like, who are the good guys right now?
01:25:34.000Well, that's been my litmus test for a very long time.
01:25:37.000This is why, despite my differences of opinion with RFK Jr., I was seriously considering voting for the guy, because he strikes me as sincere and honorable, and it's just something you don't see in American politics hardly ever.
01:25:54.000If Trump promised to cut all funding to Ukraine and Israel and foreign interventions, but he would use the money to pay reparations to descendants of slaves, would you support this?
01:26:02.000As of right now, with 105,000 votes, 57.2% said fund war and no reparations.
01:26:29.000Ian and I are—yeah, I mean, no, I would rather it go to minorities, or really what I would like to see, as I said before the show, I would love for it to go to victims of the lockdown era.
01:26:42.000Those are the people that you don't have to worry about generational gap and proving lineage to see if you're, you know, descendant of slavery.
01:26:48.000Like, no, we were actually abused and our civil liberties were violated and we lost trillions of dollars.
01:27:18.000It's a question of what you think is a greater priority.
01:27:21.000And so the reason why this question comes up is because you have this debate over reparations, but then how can we even be having that debate when $200 billion goes to Ukraine?
01:27:44.000I think even Dave Smith would agree with this.
01:27:45.000Like, if you're going to be burning money and printing and borrowing and taxing us into oblivion, yeah, I would rather you be spending it on anything other than killing people, you know?
01:27:57.000Even libertarians who absolutely hate everything the government does, we still all would, for the most part, agree.
01:28:01.000End the war, pay the reparations, whatever.
01:28:03.000The extremely simple take on this is, if Donald Trump were to come out and say, hey everybody, a populist who wants to see an end to the war, you'll win, and there's a way we're going to... He's like, if I win the presidency, I end these wars, I bring our troops home, I get peace deals, how do we guarantee that I win?
01:28:18.000Whatever that money was, it's going to go for reparations.
01:28:20.000Now everyone who wants reparations, you can vote for me too.
01:29:10.000You got three major people who want to come after us.
01:29:13.000And Hamas, if they're a key leader in leading the Middle East against us, they have been saying since 1988 they want to take out Jews and Christians worldwide.
01:29:31.000I don't think that we are in danger of a land invasion from anyone ever.
01:29:35.000And as long as we have a nuclear arsenal that can wipe out the world multiple times over, I don't think that they're going to engage with us in a bombing campaign either.
01:29:43.000So, while I do agree, I do agree that probably if we were to stop funding Israel, there's a distinct possibility they could lose that war.
01:29:50.000I think it's actually more likely that if we were to defund that war, that they would actually then go to the negotiating table and work towards peace.
01:29:57.000And I think that would be to the benefit of not just the Palestinians, but also to the Israelis, who I think have ultimately created such a toxic environment amongst their neighbors.
01:30:06.000Turkey is getting very close to actually Well, so here's round two.
01:30:10.000Turkey's a NATO ally. I mean, that is such a paradigm-shifting maneuver. I don't think
01:30:15.000people are paying or giving it enough thought as to where this thing might be headed.
01:30:20.000Well, so here's round two. Would you like to read the new question I have proposed?
01:31:38.000Pre-COVID, under Trump, why was the economy doing so well and there were no new wars?
01:31:43.000It's almost like when we don't waste money in these wars for conquest to create some liberal economic order, we actually see Americans prosper.
01:31:50.000Because the economic resources are going towards the people of the country.
01:31:53.000Well, that's the whole America First mantra, right?
01:31:55.000What some people have pointed out in response to the actual question about ending the war is that the money spent on war, in many ways, does go to American companies and is spent in this country.
01:32:06.000So when they're building rockets, it's American jobs that are getting paid the salaries that they buy cookies with and then they go home.
01:32:12.000But the truth is, Well, that is true to a certain extent.
01:32:17.000If all of the money was in the American economy, you're looking at, instead of building a $50 million drone missile or whatever, you're looking at contractors hiring electricians, who are hiring chefs, who are ordering cakes, who are buying playing cards.
01:32:33.000This is why everyone's life in this country gets better, because the economic resources, the resources themselves, are traded amongst only the Americans for the purpose of generating resources for Americans.
01:32:48.000We are all trading and the end result is a rocket that none of us will ever get to use and it's fired off in a foreign country.
01:32:55.000Or we're all trading and the end result is a giant water slide for which we'll remain in our community and we can use whenever we want.
01:33:01.000One gives us something that gives us more luxuries, one doesn't.
01:33:04.000Just like you can retrofit an economy to go from like an industrial manufacturing base that makes roads and cars into an economy that makes missiles and tanks.
01:33:14.000You go from like a car company into a tank company.
01:33:16.000You could go from a tank company into a car company.
01:33:18.000So you could kind of reverse engineer the military industrial complex into an industrial complex of another nature.
01:33:26.000Of course, then the idea is, do you want to let your guard down militarily?
01:33:57.000There's still a multiplier effect whether you're giving it out through reparations or through a corporation.
01:34:01.000I just think that they're both obviously terrible.
01:34:03.000And on one side, there's actually war and death and destruction.
01:34:06.000On the other side, there's, you know, I won't say anything What we've got now is conquest, because in order to combat inflation, it looks like they're trying to seize resources from other countries.
01:34:16.000If we stop the conquest, then there will be an attempted resource seizure within our country, is seemingly the fear.
01:34:29.000For whatever reason, we're not doing any energy exploration or development in our own territory, which is a massive, massive allotment of land that we control, that no one disputes.
01:34:38.000But for some reason we're like, but why don't we go to Iran and blow them up?
01:34:42.000No, why don't we go to Alaska where there aren't people?
01:34:45.000We don't have to destroy the great wild lands or anything like that.
01:34:49.000There are areas where we could begin development.
01:34:52.000I went and visited Alaska last year, and I asked some of the locals who were there, I was like, would you be upset if the U.S.
01:34:58.000said they wanted to put development around these cities and start doing energy stuff?
01:35:04.000They're like, oh, that'd be fantastic.
01:35:17.000Development would be fantastic, but they won't do it.
01:35:19.000So why are we in... Why won't they do it, by the way?
01:35:21.000What is the... The answer that I was told, I think it was Daniel Turner and Jack Bassobo were talking about this, that it's the wealthy playground.
01:35:27.000The ultra-wealthy elites, that's their safe haven where they want to go and say, no, no, you can't touch ours.
01:35:33.000I would think that it's probably more cost prohibitive to drill into frozen land for oil and gas, wouldn't it be?
01:36:38.000I think the argument, and I know this is kind of going against Michael Malice's rule and breaking your binary options that you're proffering, but I think the better option would be to tax the American people less and allow for the free market to decide what is actually an investment that's viable as opposed to this kind of technocratic approach that we're going to manage the economy, be it nation building abroad or nation building domestically.
01:37:02.000This is my concern with Donald Trump's second term, in fact, is that he's been proposing kind of these, like, American cities rebirth thing project.
01:37:16.000But he was talking about basically, like, federal funding to build these new cities so that there'd be affordable homes and jobs and you'd bring back domestic production.
01:37:25.000And it's like, I just don't think that's actually how you fix this country.
01:37:29.000I think the way you fix this country is through sound money, deregulation, ending the wars, bringing our troops home, and I think that would actually do way more than any of his well-laid plans.

01:39:05.000It is not just a white pill moment, it is a divine, glowing, holy white pill that has descended from the heavens, and I have never felt so optimistic.
01:39:14.000On top of that, they wash it down with My Hero by the Foo Fighters.
01:42:46.000Everything that has happened so far, even with RFK's endorsement, is just like they have crammed 8,000 historical moments into one election cycle.
01:43:28.000It's like Rick and Morty after sexual assault allegations.
01:43:32.000The script is just broken at this point.
01:43:34.000That's what the American people are dealing with.
01:43:36.000Well, I'm saying, like, in 2015, the showrunners, the production company, comes to the writers of Earth, and they're like, guys, ratings are in the trash can.
01:43:47.000You know, we've been doing this for 2015 years, but no show lasts forever.
01:45:29.000It was attacked in 91, and they repeatedly talked about how they were serious targets for terror attacks.
01:45:34.000But I did think it is interesting because so often there was this montage of like seven or eight different cartoons that were put out in the 1990s, including The Simpsons, a whole bunch of others, that just kept showing the WTC get hit by, you know, flying.
01:45:51.000Yeah, that could have been predictive programming.
01:46:41.000It's gonna be 20 years, and Ian's gonna be a billionaire off his graphene investments.
01:46:46.000He's gonna be developing a whole lot of crazy technology.
01:46:49.000He's gonna use that money to run for office.
01:46:51.000He's going to be this middle-of-the-road guy.
01:46:53.000They're gonna try and pull up clips of him being hyper-partisan, but they won't be able to find him, and he's constantly defending both sides, and they'll have no means of attack.
01:47:00.000He'll end up winning by, like, a couple points, becoming president.
01:47:03.000And then he'll probably die traversing Antarctica trying to find the end of Earth.
01:47:23.000So there's obviously hypocrisy here too, but what really drove me nuts is for her to get up there and to have the audacity as a black woman in America who became a billionaire probably multiple times over, largely predicated off of the fact that we aren't a racist nation, that white women to the tune of millions, sent her a billion plus dollars in
01:47:41.000profit over the years, and she still gets up there and lectures the American
01:47:44.000people that she had to fight income inequality and racism and blah blah blah blah blah.
01:47:49.000I just don't know how they don't have more shame. And it's not just Oprah. I mean, you
01:48:02.000You have the House Congressional Oversight that comes out saying there's really compelling evidence that they, you know, grifted their family $28 million off of selling the American people out.
01:48:10.000Like, all of these people are absurdly wealthy.
01:48:12.000Just the nerve to get up there and lecture the American people about income inequality makes me sick.
01:48:16.000It's also funny that they had so many people going up there being like, oh, the Democrats, we're for the working class, we're for the people that are working hard to build America.
01:48:23.000And then talking all this crap about how the Republicans are just a whole bunch of billionaires and politicians backed by billionaires.
01:48:30.000But then you have billionaires come on the stage for you.
01:49:15.000We can have conversations in the greater detail later, but if this dude's saying this is our path forward, it's our path forward, then...
01:49:21.000That's what I think was so remarkable about his willingness to do this.
01:49:24.000I mean, he campaigned for a long time, and he had lots of members of his family come out and just basically say, like, he is embarrassing our family.
01:49:34.000He does not carry on the legacy of his own father.
01:49:38.000Imagine the nerve to tell a son that he is not carrying on the legacy of his father as he's literally running for President of the United States.
01:49:45.000These people are so reprehensible, but this is what kind of put me on the path of trusting in his You know, his truth-telling, like that he was actually sincere.
01:49:55.000I want the Kennedys, all you guys, to know that what Bobby has done will reignite a love for your family for hundreds, maybe even thousands of years.
01:50:19.000And I think it does, you know, strike terror in the hearts of people who are hoping that they could just... because there were so many Democratic-led campaigns to try and get Kennedy off the ballot in places where he had fairly won access to it, and they were led by Democrats.
01:50:33.000Like, his party really sold him out, and I think that despite the fact that everyone was like, he takes votes from Trump, he takes votes from Trump, it wasn't...
01:50:42.000There were no Republican right-wing organizations trying to run him off the ballot.
01:51:04.000By the way, I just came up with the greatest idea imaginable, and if there's any AI specialists out there, what I want you guys to do is take the footage of Bobby Kennedy shirtless a year ago doing the incline press, and I want you to transition him to walking into CIA headquarters.
01:51:21.000I'm telling you, it'll go super viral.
01:51:30.000Denny D. Alelio says, RFK has my votes to win the walkaway video contest.
01:51:35.000Oh my gosh, he should do the walkaway video contest!
01:51:38.000Or at the very least, Brandon should be like, honorable mention, who did not enter but has one of the best walkaway videos ever, here's RFK Jr.' 's speech.
01:51:51.000I mean, I gotta be honest, RFK Jr.' 's speech today was the best walkaway video I've ever seen.
01:51:56.000I don't think he needs the $10,000 though.
01:51:59.000I mean, the way he just so masterfully obliterated every single institution that I despise, from like the CIA to the FBI to HHS to the CDC to the...
01:52:11.000And then he goes, and then to the DNC, and then to CNN, and then, you know, it's just like, kept going.
01:54:13.000Big table full of some of the biggest Trump supporters in like 2017 or whatever, and they're all talking.
01:54:18.000And then I talked to them about a lot of stuff we talked about in the culture war today, like redlining, blockbusting in Chicago.
01:54:24.000And I said, I think a lot of conservatives don't ever hear real arguments because the woke have given this crackpot racist argument of like segregating DEI or whatever.
01:54:34.000We didn't call it DEI, but it was like the POC and non-POC stuff.
01:54:37.000And I was like, actually being in Chicago, like, here's what I see.
01:54:39.000And the Trump supporters were like, I never thought about it like that.
01:55:05.000And this is why I took this kind of personally, is because, just coincidentally, I happened to be at the Young Americans for Liberty event in Orlando with Dave Smith and Josie, the red-headed libertarian.
01:55:16.000And Kyle Rittenhouse was, like, standing 30 feet away from me, and I had just seen Cat Turd trying to ruin the kid's life.
01:55:23.000And I walked up to Kyle, and I talked to him for about 15, 20 minutes just to see, like, what's the angle?
01:55:46.000And it was just so obviously sincere and from the heart and he was kind of in a panic and I was like, I just gave him a big hug and I was like, nice to meet you dude.
01:56:04.000So send your vibes to the moon to bounce it off the moon and send it back to earth so that Trump wins.
01:56:08.000Because I'm just imagining what it'll be like if, if November 6th, you know, PA is like, we're not going to have the results for a long time.
01:56:16.000They're like, nah, there's, it doesn't matter what PA says.
01:56:18.000Trump's got 305 electoral votes or whatever.
01:56:21.000I'm just imagining what that day is going to be like when I just, we're going to go to the river.
01:56:25.000We're going to take some inner tubes and we're just going to sit on those inner tubes and just float and just sit back and be like, this is the day.
01:56:31.000I think we need to get another yacht in Miami.
01:56:34.000Sorry, this is just me pitching you to get me another yacht.
01:56:57.000Trump winning is actually just the starting line and that's when things get, I wouldn't say harder, like right now it's hard getting Trump and people like Vivek and RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard.
01:57:08.000I mean this is amazing what we're seeing.
01:57:10.000The people he's brought around him so far has been really great news.
01:57:55.000And again, I want to stress, he just said, we'll see.
01:57:57.000We're going to need to keep his feet to the fire when he does win.
01:58:00.000But I think it's more likely than not because Trump, look, there's a lot of diehard Trump supporters who don't want to accept that he's got an ego.
01:58:06.000And, you know, when Brandon Strzok was here, with all due respect to Brandon, I said, I think Trump is very much motivated by wanting people to like him.
01:58:12.000And a lot of Trump supporters are like, no, he's altruistic.
01:58:15.000And I'm like, big golden Trump on buildings in every city.
01:58:19.000Okay, dude, it's not bad that you want people to like you.
01:58:23.000I'm not saying that's a vice or, you know, Donald Trump's... We all want to be liked to some extent.
01:58:28.000If Donald Trump's largely motivated by wanting to be liked, that means he's trying to help as many people as possible because he wants people to like and respect him.
01:58:36.000It'd be weird if he was like, I don't care if they like me at all.
01:58:40.000It's kind of sociopathic at that point if you don't care at all.
01:58:42.000Yeah, so I do believe that Trump will deliver on his promises because he doesn't want to be the guy whose honor was challenged.
01:58:49.000And I think the other side of that coin is that they took a shot at him, you know?
01:58:54.000Like, the whole reason I think he didn't deliver in his first term is because, one, he didn't understand the inner workings of D.C., but two, he thought that if he kind of schmoozed them and did the businessman thing where he's like, you know, I'm going to be respectful and nice and you'll be my buddy and then we'll work together and we'll advance some
01:59:10.000things and I'll give you this and you'll give me that, we'll compromise."
01:59:13.000And they're like, you don't understand.
01:59:46.000A lot of people that are looking for work.
01:59:48.000Trump looking for work, looking for countries to live in.
01:59:51.000Donald Trump saying, we're going to release the documents on JFK, RFK on January 13th.
01:59:57.000You've got people who are going like, oh crap, oh crap, oh crap.
01:59:59.000What he really needs to do is add J6 to that.
02:00:02.000I would very much like to know about the device outside, feet away from Kamala Harris, who's now the chosen one to be the President of the United States, and we have no information on that?
02:00:38.000Let me check the guest list and see what we got on Monday.
02:00:40.000It's going to be Joseph McBride Esquire.
02:00:43.000So it'll be a fun show, of course, and there'll be a lot of developments over the weekend with whatever happened with this RFK Junior Rally stuff.
02:00:49.000We'll see how it starts affecting the news and the polls.
