Transcript

00:00:00.000 Ron DeSantis is deploying up to 1,000 more National Guard to the Texas border amid the
00:00:14.000 crisis between the federal government and the illegal immigrants in the state, of course,
00:00:19.000 saying that if you don't have a border, you don't have a country.
00:00:22.000 So, of course, naturally, the conversation is continuing.
00:00:25.000 I don't know that this is a dramatic escalation.
00:00:28.000 It is serious that Ron DeSantis has basically come out and said we're going to send more, but many states have already sent National Guard.
00:00:34.000 Greg Abbott said 10 different states sent either state law enforcement or National Guard, so it's hard to know exactly where this is going, but another grain of sand is being added to that heap.
00:00:45.000 So we'll talk about that.
00:00:46.000 Of course, we have many on the left saying that the Republican or right-wing threat of civil war is serious, writing many articles about to go along with this.
00:00:53.000 Now we have another story.
00:00:55.000 We covered this last night, undercover footage showing what appeared to be an army guy of some sort guarding a room full of illegal immigrants.
00:01:01.000 We have more information on this, some rumors, and some articles.
00:01:07.000 It is true that there has been an effort since last year, or longer, to enlist non-citizens into the armed forces.
00:01:14.000 Vladimir Putin is considering the exact same thing, and several countries have begun reinstating the draft.
00:01:21.000 So while you have many people concerned about a potential World War III, while you have Joe Biden approving strikes on Iranian targets, and then you have countries considering the draft, I have to wonder what the U.S.
00:01:32.000 would do in that circumstance, considering Gen Z is not going to fight.
00:01:35.000 They're not going to find very many quality soldiers among the Gen Z generation, and so maybe it is that they're going to start recruiting non-citizens.
00:01:41.000 And we've got the articles showing the bills they have tried to put forward to make this happen.
00:01:45.000 So we'll talk about that, plus a whole lot more.
00:01:46.000 Looks like Donald Trump, right now, if the election were to happen today, he would win.
00:01:50.000 And that's bad, bad news for Joe Biden.
00:01:52.000 But what can they do about it?

00:03:09.000 Yes, it's Bocas and I over here just controlling the show, controlling the media.
00:03:13.000 That's his way in life.
00:03:14.000 So, Mr. Bocas will be joining us tonight because we had a little health scare with him earlier.
00:03:20.000 He got overly excited, because, you know, he normally just sits by the door.
00:03:23.000 He's been very sick for a very long time.
00:03:24.000 We've been giving him a lot of medicine, keeping him alive.
00:03:26.000 Mr. Bocas, of course, is a cat, for those that aren't watching.
00:03:29.000 But, uh, he got very sick.
00:03:31.000 He wet himself, collapsed, and could not move.
00:03:34.000 And so everybody got really scared.
00:03:36.000 And as we are doing pre-production for the show, he made his way up here to hang out.

00:03:48.000 Oh, absolutely.
00:03:49.000 I also wet myself and collapsed before I got here.
00:03:49.000 Well, it could be his last day.
00:03:53.000 No, no, no, but I understand.
00:03:54.000 Such a copier, oh my goodness.
00:03:55.000 I know, I know, I know, it's pathetic.
00:03:57.000 But no, no, no, I'm very happy to have him joining us tonight.
00:04:00.000 He's a sweet kitty.
00:04:02.000 So who are you?

00:04:25.000 No, I'm a writer for scnr.com at Scanner News.
00:04:28.000 Thank you guys for supporting all our work.
00:04:30.000 We have Shane with us tonight again.
00:04:31.000 What's up?
00:04:32.000 Shane Cashman, also a writer for scnr.com, author of the Inverted World series.
00:04:32.000 It's good to be back.
00:04:36.000 It's good to be here, Serge.
00:04:38.000 What's up?
00:04:39.000 Yo, just here wearing my favorite Top Lobster merch and hanging out with Bocas, I guess.
00:04:45.000 All right, let's roll.
00:04:46.000 We got the story from scnr.com.
00:04:48.000 Governor Ron DeSantis deploys National Guard to Texas border.
00:04:52.000 Quote, if we don't have a border, then we are not a sovereign country.
00:04:56.000 DeSantis, who ended his 2024 campaign two weeks ago, has promised to deploy at least 1,000 troops to the US-Mexico border in addition to the National Guard.
00:05:03.000 This will mark the first deployment of the Florida State Guard.
00:05:06.000 So that's distinct.
00:05:08.000 I suppose that's where we're actually starting to see some escalation.
00:05:10.000 Florida State Guard, my understanding, you can't federalize them.
00:05:14.000 No, you can't.
00:05:14.000 They're state.
00:05:15.000 So this is where things are starting to get particularly interesting.
00:05:18.000 The concern with Texas National Guard being deployed is that Joe Biden could invoke the Insurrection Act or just make some declaration of, we can't enforce the law without your help.
00:05:27.000 One of the criteria for federalizing a National Guard is they can't enforce the law through other means, which could mean he doesn't need to go and say, oh, Texas is in a state of rebellion.
00:05:37.000 He could just be like, we love Texas, but we're going to need some help on that border.
00:05:40.000 So now they're under my command.
00:05:42.000 But the Texas State Guard and the Florida State Guard, not so much.
00:05:45.000 So with Ron DeSantis deploying Florida State Guard down there, this will create a contingent that cannot be federalized, and this will solidify, I guess, state supremacy on the law or the states.
00:05:58.000 Things are starting to get interesting.
00:06:01.000 This could end here, or this could contribute to a larger You know, look, the federal government is supposed to be of the states.
00:06:09.000 The states go to the federal government, and the federal government is formed basically like Captain Planet.
00:06:14.000 All the states say, you know, with our senators combined, we get, boom, federal government.
00:06:18.000 Sort of.
00:06:19.000 Now it's basically like, yeah, we do not see you as in charge, and we're going to take it upon ourselves to unite, come together, and effectively form what the federal government was supposed to be on their own.
00:06:32.000 So they say, according to the article, DeSantis visited Texas-Mexico border July of 2021.
00:06:38.000 He sent both state law enforcement officers and members of the Florida National Guard to assist.
00:06:42.000 He also sent 800 soldiers, 200 Florida Department of Law Enforcement officers, 101 state troopers, and 20 wildlife officers to assist Texas Border Patrol in May of 2023, as well as 5 planes, 17 drones, 2 command vehicles, and 10 boats.
00:06:58.000 Biden has the authority to close the border today if he wanted to.
00:07:01.000 He lacks the will to get the job done.
00:07:03.000 He lacks the capacity to see the problem for what it is.
00:07:05.000 So the American people are basically left scrambling.
00:07:08.000 It's kind of sad, I gotta be honest, that Ron, if he was just doing this while running, he didn't need to campaign at all.
00:07:14.000 That was the wild thing about listening to this speech today, which is it's just a totally different energy.
00:07:19.000 I feel like we had campaign Ron, and now we have governor Ron DeSantis, and he's much more confident.
00:07:26.000 He speaks much more directly.
00:07:28.000 All the criticisms about his personality, you couldn't say that here.
00:07:31.000 And again, this is something that I think he feels very confident he's been sending support to Texas since 2021.
00:07:38.000 You know, different amounts at different times.
00:07:41.000 He sent boats.
00:07:41.000 He sent people.
00:07:43.000 He sent wildlife agents.
00:07:44.000 I mean, he has really reached into every capacity of the Florida government to say we're behind controlling the border.
00:07:51.000 I think this is a good move for him in a lot of ways.
00:07:54.000 I think, you know, personally I think supporting Texas and what they're doing is great, but I also think generally he is really putting himself back out there as the governor people remembered him as.
00:08:02.000 There's a meme, you know the meme where it's the guy poking the stick at the things and he's like, come on, do something?
00:08:07.000 It's Karl Marx wearing a mask with a smiley face and Karl Marx is crying behind it and he's poking Texas and Joe Biden.
00:08:15.000 He's like, come on, do a civil war.
00:08:17.000 So, there's an article from New Republic, MAGA's ugly new Civil War fantasy should be taken seriously.
00:08:22.000 It's funny because, on the right for the most part, everyone's saying like, no Civil War, and the left is saying, boy, they sure do want a Civil War!
00:08:31.000 Like, you keep asking us, I guess we'll get it started.
00:08:34.000 No, it's wild.
00:08:34.000 No, the left wants the Civil War to start because then they can suspend the Constitution.
00:08:37.000 No, I think so too.
00:08:38.000 I think, I think the, what, what the, you know, Republican-led states are already doing is just saying, well, we don't consent to being governed this way and so we will resist.
00:08:48.000 I mean, that was what I thought was so powerful about the message that Abbott put out saying, our right to self-defense is the supreme law of the land and nothing supersedes that.
00:08:56.000 That's the way this works.
00:08:57.000 And then every other state that was like, Yes, we completely agree.
00:09:00.000 Every other state that felt like state sovereignty is ultimately important, step forward.
00:09:05.000 And it's obviously not that surprising that it's along partisan lines, at least to me.
00:09:09.000 I think Democratic states feel ultimately that the more concentrated and the closer their relationship to the federal government, The more power they have, but that's not the case.
00:09:19.000 These states are banding together and saying, we don't want this and we're going to act accordingly in a nonviolent way.
00:09:23.000 While Tim was reading the list of everything that DeSantis is sending to Texas, I had this terrible image of the federal government stopping it in some similar fashion as to like the Sherman neckties that happened in the Civil War, where they would like burn the railroad tracks to stop the movement of all these, like the food or ammo and stuff.
00:09:38.000 I hope it doesn't come to that, but at some point I feel like they're going to try to stop this from happening.
00:09:43.000 Checkpoints on federal highways?
00:09:45.000 Yeah.
00:09:46.000 Or, I mean, I think the federal government's next move is to say, well, we're going to cut off money to the states that are doing this.
00:09:51.000 That tends to be their move, to say we're going to, you know, use the power of the purse to say you don't get this.
00:09:55.000 But I think that, again, this has become such a clear issue and it's winning over moderate voters too.
00:10:01.000 Closing the border is – being against closing the border is actually not a popular position.
00:10:05.000 Here's what people need to consider.
00:10:08.000 So, Ron DeSantis is sending some troops to the border.
00:10:11.000 Again.
00:10:12.000 I guess.
00:10:13.000 You know, it's Florida State Guard this time, so that can't be federalized.
00:10:17.000 Geez.
00:10:18.000 Imagine if eight years ago.
00:10:20.000 Someone came to you and said, in eight years, 10 states will have deployed law enforcement and National Guard to the Texas border in a standoff with the federal government, as the feds try to break barriers to allow 10,000 criminal immigrants, criminal aliens, every day to rush through the country.
00:10:37.000 And the states began to reject federal authority.
00:10:39.000 The Supreme Court gets involved.
00:10:41.000 The issue that I think we have to understand is, frogs in a pot boiling.
00:10:45.000 It's not literal, but when we're at the point where Ron DeSantis, a governor, announces he's sending a thousand troops to the border, which is in direct defiance of what the federal government is trying to do.
00:10:56.000 Every day, when something small happens, we get used to it.
00:11:00.000 At this point, we've already heard the news that 10 states have deployed National Guard to the Texas border.
00:11:05.000 Now, hearing that Ron's adding more, it's kind of like, okay.
00:11:08.000 But imagine how insane it would have been if we went from 2016 to that moment.
00:11:12.000 Nobody would have believed this would ever happen.
00:11:14.000 And I can tell you, because as much as people like to say, oh, Tim Pool talks about civil war, I kept saying, this will never happen.
00:11:20.000 This is not what happens.
00:11:21.000 And here it is.
00:11:23.000 This is wild.
00:11:24.000 Well, this is what I think is so interesting about the showdown in Texas is it's kind of this manifestation of Left versus right.
00:11:31.000 The left seems to love the federal government.
00:11:34.000 They love everything federalized.
00:11:36.000 They want it as big as possible.
00:11:37.000 They want the almighty federal government to be as big and powerful and domineering as possible.
00:11:41.000 The right is always very much about, obviously, limited government, but also the sovereignty of the states.
00:11:48.000 And so it's really the showdown between the states and the federal government.
00:11:51.000 And it is like a left versus right thing, I mean, to this point.
00:11:55.000 It's just like COVID again with lockdowns.
00:11:56.000 Yeah.
00:11:57.000 There's people on the left who wanted the entire, everyone has got to shut down, ruin your life.
00:12:01.000 And then we had the states, you know, decide, thankfully, for some people.
00:12:04.000 It also reminds me of the wave of governors that banned TikTok on the, you know, on their state or on state property, state technology.
00:12:13.000 And it was a wave of Republican governors.
00:12:15.000 I think actually the governor of Nebraska let it off first, like two years early, then Kristi Noem, bunch of stuff.
00:12:20.000 This was the end of 2022 into 2023.
00:12:23.000 But then at the tail end, there were like, I think, total three or four Democratic governors that were like, yes, this technology is risky.
00:12:30.000 We have to step in and say you can't access it because, you know, part of their terms of service means they can access everything on a computer or browsing data.
00:12:36.000 So if you're a civil employee accessing someone's private information, it's actually a big risk.
00:12:41.000 But it was right at the tail end that there were a couple of Democratic governors that were like, OK, we're going to do this, too.
00:12:45.000 And I am wondering if, you know, in a couple of months that there is a chance that, you know, a more moderate Democratic governor will say, Okay, we're actually with Texas on this one.
00:12:55.000 This is too risky to state to not be involved in.
00:12:58.000 But it's kind of like the breakdown with law enforcement, too, because, you know, the left was screaming, defund the police, ban the police, like, but they love the FBI.
00:13:07.000 They love the Federal Bureau.
00:13:08.000 Whereas, you know, conservatives are more like, we want law enforcement out of the federal government.
00:13:13.000 Like, let's, you know, They're Marxists.
00:13:14.000 They love when they can weaponize the power against their enemies.
00:13:17.000 That's all they do.
00:13:17.000 And I think conservatives tend to be more supportive or at least more sympathetic to state or local police.
00:13:23.000 And they are definitely more distrusting of anything on the federal level.
00:13:28.000 Absolutely.
00:13:29.000 Where's the law enforcement, the prosecutors from, say, West Virginia or Texas?
00:13:35.000 Why hasn't any prosecutor in Texas filed criminal charges against Joe Biden?
00:13:40.000 Just outright.
00:13:40.000 Good question.
00:13:41.000 And let them argue he's immune.
00:13:44.000 Is he immune or not?
00:13:45.000 And let them argue and say, look, interview some CBP guys, Customs and Border Protection.
00:13:51.000 Ask them why it is you are facilitating human trafficking.
00:13:56.000 Why are you accepting handoffs from cartels?
00:13:59.000 And when they say, just what I was ordered to do, you can go, okay, who's your boss?
00:14:05.000 And then finally you get to the guy at the top, you get to Mayorkas or whatever.
00:14:08.000 And then you can say, Joe Biden was aware of this and we want to criminally charge him.
00:14:13.000 How about you start with a criminal investigation into Joe Biden and let them argue you can't do it, the president's immune.
00:14:21.000 Oh, is he?
00:14:22.000 Well, I guess you got to drop those charges against Donald Trump.
00:14:25.000 Is it your feeling, though, that the average liberal or leftist citizen is behind Joe Biden on this?
00:14:31.000 No!
00:14:32.000 Okay, because my feeling is that this is Biden kind of acting on his own.
00:14:36.000 I don't feel like there's a groundswell of support from the average citizen on the left.
00:14:40.000 I've seen a lot of people who basically put me in exile for things I've said during COVID come around to agreeing with me on most things now.
00:14:40.000 Not that I've seen.
00:14:48.000 But that's just me.
00:14:49.000 I don't know a lot of people.
00:14:50.000 I'm not in New York anymore.
00:14:51.000 It's a hard thing to defend.
00:14:53.000 But New York has been really hard hit by all the immigration stuff, right?
00:14:57.000 Again, credit to Abbott, him busting migrants everywhere.
00:15:01.000 The thing is, with the migrants in New York, and I can't remember the whole total, but at one point it was like 100,000 that had arrived in New York.
00:15:08.000 He had only bust like 30,000 there, which means that there were migrants coming in already anyways.
00:15:12.000 He maybe exacerbated the problem by not allowing them to stay in Texas, but it called attention to an issue that New York was already coming under siege for.
00:15:21.000 And that's something that New Yorkers day-to-day, you know, I might generalize them as being more progressive than, you know, someone in another part of the country.
00:15:29.000 They are having to face the realities of immigration the way that border communities had to.
00:15:33.000 And so it is an issue that I think is sort of undeniable.
00:15:37.000 And ultimately, there are a lot of reasons we've talked about, you know, the effect of the fentanyl crisis.
00:15:42.000 We've talked about the effect of human trafficking, human smuggling.
00:15:45.000 There are a lot of ways to say this is a bad idea, no matter where your sympathies fall.
00:15:50.000 I'll clarify for the individuals in the chat who lack the capability to hold more than one thought at a time.
00:15:57.000 CBP officers that are facilitating human smuggling and working with cartel members should go to prison.
00:16:02.000 When you interview them, and you ask them why they're committing these crimes against humanity, and they invariably just say, I was told to do it, you now get criminal implications on their superiors.
00:16:13.000 That does not mean they don't go to jail.
00:16:15.000 But right now, politically, the question is, does Donald Trump have immunity for the actions he took as president?
00:16:21.000 And the answer is yes, unless he's impeached and convicted.
00:16:23.000 If the Democrats think otherwise, then the political opportunity is, file criminal charges against Joe Biden, watch them come out screaming he's immune, and then watch Donald Trump's trial get dismissed.
00:16:39.000 Generally speaking, conservatives have not gotten wise yet to the idea of weaponizing the courts the way that the left has.
00:16:45.000 I gotta be honest, I don't even look at it like weaponizing.
00:16:48.000 But the left is weaponizing and we're not even, there's no counter-reaction, is what I'm saying.
00:16:53.000 The anti-establishment faction is not even attempting to enforce the law in any capacity.
00:16:57.000 Correct.
00:16:58.000 So, when you've got Joe Biden destroying property, charge the CBP agents with destruction of state property.
00:17:06.000 That's a felony!
00:17:08.000 Nope, nope, nope, we're not gonna do that.
00:17:09.000 Y'all hold on!
00:17:11.000 Someone gets an order to destroy state property and the state's like, well, I guess they're allowed to do it.
00:17:15.000 Is that a joke?
00:17:17.000 They don't do anything.
00:17:18.000 Do you think it's because you just described as anti-establishment, do you think that's part of it?
00:17:21.000 They don't think about how to use the system to benefit because they are generally anti the system?
00:17:26.000 No, no, anti-establishment doesn't mean you oppose governance.
00:17:29.000 It's just, there's a reason why the establishment gained the amount of power that it did, and why we're watching them... I mean, it's wild, man.
00:17:38.000 It's a bunch of communists that are willing to say or do whatever they want for power.
00:17:44.000 And then everyone else just keeps saying, leave me alone.
00:17:47.000 Okay, well you keep doing that, they're gonna keep gaining ground wherever they can.
00:17:51.000 I feel like it, I don't agree with it, but I feel like a lot of it has to do with people being desensitized to the justice system being so broken and having no accountability on the left.
00:17:59.000 So when people, like look what happened with the sex tape from the Senate or whatever.
00:18:04.000 Yeah, the fact that they were like, we've closed the case, we can't find any evidence of wrongdoing, this is the staffer who filmed himself.
00:18:09.000 Meanwhile, there's people at J6 getting, you know, all this stuff put in prison on, you know, being chased around.
00:18:14.000 Right, so we'll save this one for the larger subject, but The guy who filmed the adult film in Senate.
00:18:21.000 No charges.
00:18:22.000 Crazy.
00:18:22.000 None.
00:18:22.000 Totally fine.
00:18:23.000 Well, they can't find evidence of wrongdoing.
00:18:24.000 That was the line that made me crazy.
00:18:26.000 There's literally a video of wrongdoing.
00:18:27.000 There's literally a video and they're like, we don't know.
00:18:29.000 It could be A.R.
00:18:30.000 Anything could have happened.
00:18:31.000 I don't get it.
00:18:33.000 But that, I mean, that makes people cynical.
00:18:35.000 And I think that miscarriage of justice or that just sort of blind denial, especially in this case, With comparing, contrasting it to J6ers is interesting because the more videos that came out proved more and more that they were, there were so many people who were just waved into the building.
00:18:53.000 I mean we had the shaman who was escorted around.
00:18:56.000 This idea that there is actual video evidence that some prosecutor has decided I'm just actually going to turn a blind eye to.
00:19:03.000 And in fact, it seems like juries are saying that doesn't count.
00:19:05.000 I think it's beyond that, though, because we almost live in separate realities.
00:19:09.000 There's people who look at those videos and still see the thing they want to see.
00:19:11.000 Totally.
00:19:12.000 It's terrifying.
00:19:13.000 But I think you're right.
00:19:14.000 What you said about the desensitization of Losing in the courts, it feels like we're always losing in the courts.
00:19:21.000 And I mean, to me, even just based off my own personal experience, I feel like there is a certain wokeness.
00:19:27.000 Did you have a jury trial?
00:19:31.000 I didn't.
00:19:31.000 Sorry, I cut you off.
00:19:32.000 No, no, no, you're fine, you're fine.
00:19:33.000 No, I took a plea deal, as most people are doing in these cases, but I did have a Trump-appointed judge.
00:19:39.000 Which did me no favors, trust me.
00:19:42.000 And in fact, I would actually argue that in most cases, the people who drew the Trump judges, they're getting the worst.
00:19:47.000 Because first of all, I believe that a lot of the Trump-appointed judges actually hate Trump.
00:19:52.000 Just because they were appointed by Trump doesn't mean they were Trump supporters or Trump fans.
00:19:56.000 It just means they have a history of conservatism.
00:19:58.000 And at some point, they probably worked in the Bush administration or something like that.
00:20:02.000 But in addition to that, I think that they feel like they have something to prove.
00:20:06.000 You know, like, oh, just because I'm Trump-appointed doesn't mean that I'm going to go easy on these Trump supporters.
00:20:11.000 I'm going to go extra hard on them.
00:20:12.000 Watch what I do.
00:20:13.000 And I think that's happening with a lot of conservative judges around the country.
00:20:16.000 I think it's another reason why we've lost faith in the courts, even if it's an immigration situation.
00:20:22.000 Whatever it is, we just feel like we can't win.
00:20:25.000 Yeah, it's their duty.
00:20:26.000 Who's your judge, Kelly?
00:20:28.000 Her name is Dabney Friedrich.
00:20:29.000 Oh, interesting.
00:20:30.000 I want to jump to this story.
00:20:32.000 It's an old story.
00:20:33.000 But last night we were discussing a video that came out from the Atlanta airport that showed what appears to be a drill sergeant guarding a room full of illegal immigrants while an NGO was inside that brags, boasts, they're facilitating these migrant traveling around the country.
00:20:49.000 The speculation at the end of the show was someone said, this is where people go for basic training, and so we do have some updates.
00:20:56.000 Nothing I can say definitively.
00:20:58.000 But if you were to lay out all the pieces in this story, it would look like there are a bunch of criminal aliens being brought into the airport in secret, under guard of a drill sergeant, potentially to be recruited into the military.
00:21:10.000 I'm not saying that is true.
00:21:12.000 It does also, it's entirely possible that guy just happened to have been sitting there.
00:21:17.000 That's right, a drill sergeant in the airport sitting in a chair in front of this room full of illegal immigrants just because he was there and he was waiting for a plane or something.
00:21:25.000 Somebody reached out to us and they said that they may have information and they think based on what they know, I don't want to get too much into it for privacy reasons, the individual may have literally just been standing there completely unrelated.
00:21:38.000 It may be that the room in question was a USO room that was allowing criminal aliens to use his facilities and either way, This drill sergeant, according to the state senator who had his camera taken from him, was guarding illegal immigrants.
00:21:53.000 It does not mean he was ordered to do so.
00:21:55.000 It could just be he, as an individual, was sitting in front of this room, preventing people from interfering in an operation that was smuggling humans.
00:22:03.000 Now, many people pointed out to me that, in fact, the U.S.
00:22:06.000 has been making attempts to enlist non-citizens for some time.
00:22:08.000 We have this from Stars and Stripes.
00:22:10.000 Senate bill renews efforts to enlist non-citizens in the military.
00:22:14.000 Okay.
00:22:15.000 There's been a lot of talk about World War III.
00:22:17.000 We got this one from Newsweek.
00:22:20.000 You love Dan Crenshaw.
00:22:20.000 I believe it's Dan Crenshaw who said this.
00:22:22.000 Talk of World War 3 should not deter strikes inside Iran.
00:22:26.000 Yikes.
00:22:28.000 Okay, I guess, but there absolutely is a fear that we are inching towards World War 3.
00:22:34.000 Germany, Sweden, the UK, Australia have all started conversations around reinstating the military draft.
00:22:41.000 In fact, Sweden has always had one.
00:22:43.000 But they're telling their citizens to get prepared for war, and now young Swedes are starting to consider whether or not they will be conscripted.
00:22:49.000 In the UK, a high-ranking military officer said, it's time to train a citizen army.
00:22:54.000 Which is conscription for National Guard, I guess you can call it.
00:22:57.000 And in Australia, they were having conversations about a push to create a civilian army to defend the country if war were to break out.
00:23:04.000 In the United States, of course, we're facing massive shortfalls in recruitment.
00:23:09.000 And then you get this video that looks like it may be criminal aliens going through some kind of recruitment process.
00:23:14.000 I say looks like, I'm not saying it is.
00:23:17.000 Take a look at this from the New York Times.
00:23:19.000 This is a story from January 5th, 2024.
00:23:21.000 To bolster Russia's army, Putin eases citizenship path for foreign fighters.
00:23:27.000 He's seeking to strengthen his military to fight in Ukraine while mobilizing a potentially unpopular mobilization of Russians.
00:23:34.000 If Russia is doing it...
00:23:35.000 Other countries have used mercenaries throughout history.
00:23:38.000 I believe the likelihood that the U.S.
00:23:40.000 plans to, or is actually in the process of, using this mass influx of criminal aliens, using them for war, it's extremely likely.
00:23:48.000 Now, a lot of people said, duh, we've all said this, yes, we've talked about that very prospect on this show six, seven months ago.
00:23:54.000 But now, it's starting to seem more like a reality.
00:23:57.000 And I think we need members of Congress, probably not gonna be Democrats, have to be some Republicans, demanding answers And questions as to what we saw in this video and finding out whether or not there are plans to use non-citizens coming through the border illegally, these fighting age males, to enlist them in the military and have them fight in the event there's a major war.
00:24:16.000 I'm going to say this.
00:24:18.000 If you were in charge of a country and you could not get people to join up and you feared World War III was coming, I think most people would be like, we'll take mercenaries.
00:24:29.000 We'll take anybody we can.
00:24:30.000 And I think this is one way they're looking to do it.
00:24:33.000 It just seems like the logical path.
00:24:35.000 And I don't think some people have said, Tim, that would mean these people care about the United States.
00:24:39.000 It means they care about their home in Wilmington, Delaware.
00:24:39.000 No, it doesn't.
00:24:42.000 It means they're like, hey, I got a million dollar property in Santa Monica and the only way that stands is if we don't lose a war, they will do whatever it takes.
00:24:50.000 Do you think the U.S.
00:24:51.000 would just say, well, we're looking at a prospect of international conflict.
00:24:55.000 We have a shortfall in our troops.
00:24:56.000 Let's do nothing.
00:24:58.000 Or do you think they're going to say, bring them all in, baby?
00:25:01.000 So you're saying there's not enough trans people joining the military that they have to do this?
00:25:08.000 Because I was... These recruitment ads have not been successful!
00:25:11.000 Yeah, I thought we were told that diversity was the most important thing in recruitment right now.
00:25:15.000 No, I think to be serious actually, they did increase the amount of trans people who did join the military.
00:25:20.000 But it wasn't enough?
00:25:21.000 Well, it's not enough to bolster their ranks, but the truth is, when they offered the surgeries and things like that, there was a big push from trans people being like, I'll sign up.
00:25:32.000 Free, you know, gender-affirming care, sex change operations.
00:25:35.000 But outside of that, yes, the wokeness in the military has utterly destroyed it.
00:25:40.000 And so, I have to wonder then, is it on purpose?
00:25:43.000 Because I knew, I met a guy who was an officer, like an actual commissioned officer who said, it was a career for me and I'm out, I'm resigning my commission, because of all the woke stuff, all the anti-white stuff, I can't be here.
00:25:55.000 Now, what's their alternative?
00:25:59.000 Either they're the stupidest people in the world, or they're intentionally purging the ranks, and then, oh no, we have no choice but to replace the soldiers we lost with non-citizens.
00:26:08.000 And a lot of people think, The purpose of these non-citizens to bring them in is to
00:26:12.000 dramatically alter the electorate.
00:26:13.000 These things are not mutually exclusive. You can bring in all these people, say,
00:26:18.000 you're going to go fight World War III, and when you come home, you'll be a citizen,
00:26:21.000 and then you dramatically alter the voting body.
00:26:23.000 But how do you fight for a country that you know nothing about and that you really have
00:26:30.000 no allegiance to whatsoever?
00:26:33.000 How did the Hessians?
00:26:35.000 How did any mercenary group?
00:26:36.000 How many military contractors in the Middle East?
00:26:38.000 The other night surge brought up, I think it was surge that, you know, during the Civil War, a lot of Irish were coming over.
00:26:43.000 Yeah, right off the boat.
00:26:45.000 The muskets said, go to war.
00:26:47.000 I think part of the issue is, you know, yes, they could literally pick up guns and fight and maybe, like, hear commands or whatever else, but what happens afterwards?
00:26:54.000 Like, theoretically, if you're a citizen and you're a soldier, you get access to the GI Bill.
00:26:58.000 When you come back to the US, are you coming back with the idea that I have served my country?
00:27:03.000 Are you saying, like, Like, it's very different than people who enlisted thinking, this is something I'm doing in service of our country, which I just don't think our generation has really had.
00:27:18.000 I think it's something that was in the past.
00:27:20.000 And I think saying, you know, there might be someone who says, oh, well, I really feel as though I serve the country and now I'm a citizen.
00:27:26.000 You know, feel that effect.
00:27:27.000 But I think for the most part, if it's transactional, if you're saying, oh, well, I'm doing this so I can get in and actually I'm going to not really acclimate in any way, I'm not going to take on a culture, because right now it's very hard to describe if we have, I mean, I really don't think that there is a unifying American culture that even people who migrate here with all best intentions can seriously click into.
00:27:48.000 And that's just very different than other points in history, including the Civil War, when there was sort of something there that people were buying into.
00:27:54.000 I gotta tell you, if you're a conspiracy theorist who believes that there's a bunch of global elite wanting to take over the world or whatever, the best thing for them would be World War III.
00:28:02.000 It reduces population, and it creates enough damage and devastation that it gives you an opportunity to enforce an international governing body.
00:28:12.000 We've seen this every time.
00:28:14.000 I mean, if you look at the Civil War, powers went from the states instantly to the federal government after the war was over.
00:28:19.000 If you look at World War II, you get the creation of the liberal economic order.
00:28:23.000 If there is a World War III that causes massive population reduction, I mean, a lot of these population, the Malthusians are going to be very happy.
00:28:32.000 But then you have cities in disarray, you have... I mean, actually, look at it this way.
00:28:38.000 The NHS.
00:28:39.000 The reason why Europe has nationalized healthcare for the most part is because of World War II.
00:28:43.000 After everything was decimated and destroyed, their economies were ruined, they had no choice but to be like, all these people injured and damaged from the war need treatment.
00:28:51.000 And so that's the evolution of it.
00:28:52.000 The US doesn't have that.
00:28:53.000 Imagine what the world would turn into if there was a major World War III.
00:28:57.000 And then from the ashes, the powers that remain say, if this happens one more time, there will be no Earth, so we're creating the global order structure, whatever you want to call it, and all countries will abide by its rules, it will be based out of, they'll create some kind of military force like the Capital and Hunger Games.
00:29:15.000 I'm not saying literally, I'm saying...
00:29:17.000 An opportunity for dramatic change comes from war.
00:29:20.000 The reason the left would be happy to get a civil war is because then the constitution is gone.
00:29:23.000 The reason why the World Economic Forum Davos elites would love World War III is that it allows them to completely overwrite government built, like basically get rid of all the different constitutions and guarantees of all the different countries.
00:29:34.000 Well, I was just gonna say, in my conspiracy brain, I've been, like, thinking about what a World War III would even look like.
00:29:41.000 And I keep thinking, like, a World War III is mostly drones and less people, right?
00:29:46.000 And so the conspiracy thing for me kicks in where I'm like, these people, should they become soldiers, are gonna be used against our own citizens.
00:29:54.000 What were the drones attack?
00:29:55.000 Who knows targets like that have weapons, you know, missiles underground, leaders of some sort.
00:30:02.000 But if the weapons are all mostly drones, the drones will be used to take out infrastructure.
00:30:06.000 Right, but they'll be like operating from like a ship out at sea, you know.
00:30:09.000 And then what happens when, you know, you're in New York and all of a sudden, way up in the sky, you can barely see it, a tiny speck, fires a missile and blows up the Williamsburg Bridge.
00:30:18.000 Yeah.
00:30:19.000 But I'm sitting here thinking to myself, if you wanted to create a military that really had no particular allegiance to the American people or its own citizens, that at any point you could turn on the American people or weaponize against the American people, wouldn't you do it with people who came to this country with no particular allegiance to the culture, to the country, to the people, to each other?
00:30:45.000 enlist them in the military and you know, not just operates federally
00:30:49.000 It's not even like they have a home straight that they're like I would like to go back there and be a part of this
00:30:52.000 Community, right exactly. I mean these people would have no reason to say that no
00:30:57.000 I'm not you know, we're talking about my parents my grandparents my fit the country that I care about. They're
00:31:02.000 just like, okay big lessons from the Civil War
00:31:05.000 When the generals had to ask themselves, am I going to fight for my country or my home?
00:31:10.000 And many of them said, my home is Virginia or my home is South Carolina.
00:31:14.000 And they left.
00:31:16.000 These people come in.
00:31:17.000 They're home is, I don't care, I mean, I don't know.
00:31:20.000 It's one place, right?
00:31:22.000 So imagine what happens if we get a World War III.
00:31:24.000 I guarantee you, if the strikes that they're proposing on Iranian targets, not Iran directly, but Dan Crenshaw certainly wants it, but actual Iranian assets in the region, And this escalates one step at a time until we are literally in World War 3.
00:31:38.000 There's not going to be a formal declaration of World War 3.
00:31:41.000 Joe Biden's not going to come and be like, we hereby announce World War 3 and let's go, baby!
00:31:44.000 It's going to be one step at a time.
00:31:46.000 We will find ourselves in it.
00:31:48.000 Facing a military shortfall, which everyone already knows about, Biden gives a State of the Union address saying, therefore I am signing an executive order under my powers in this state of emergency.
00:31:58.000 To enlist non-citizens in this country to bolster our numbers.
00:32:03.000 It's basically Star Wars Clone Wars.
00:32:07.000 You guys have seen that one, right?
00:32:08.000 No.
00:32:08.000 I haven't.
00:32:09.000 Yeah, you haven't?
00:32:10.000 Oh, you know guys don't get, you don't know this?
00:32:10.000 No.
00:32:12.000 Oh man, well let me tell ya!
00:32:14.000 Basically, the Separatists want to leave the Republic, and they're blockading a planet.
00:32:20.000 The Republic does not have a military force that can stop them.
00:32:24.000 Obi-Wan finds a planet that's mass-produced clones, and they're like, it's your army.
00:32:29.000 There's an entire army of clones available at your disposal.
00:32:32.000 And so they go back to the planet, and they're like, what should we do?
00:32:35.000 And they're like, if we use these clones, we can actually repel the Separatists.
00:32:38.000 So they say yes.
00:32:39.000 And then the Emperor says, now that I have all these clones who have no allegiance to anybody, we'll do whatever I say.
00:32:44.000 He says, go kill all the Jedi.
00:32:46.000 So this is quite literally like the real-life version.
00:32:50.000 The US, needing to bolster its numbers for a potential World War III, says, we can use all these non-citizens.
00:32:56.000 When that war is over, and these people come back, you will have stormtroopers who don't care about you, don't care about your state, don't even know the name of most of the cities in this country, and they will do whatever the federal government tells them to do.
00:33:07.000 And the federal government's been telling them that most of the citizens here are evil extremists who vote for all the wrong things.
00:33:12.000 And they actually hate you.
00:33:13.000 Yeah, they hate you.
00:33:14.000 They don't even want you here.
00:33:15.000 So if you were, you know, to turn against them, it wouldn't matter.
00:33:18.000 That's why we held the curtain open for you to sneak in.
00:33:20.000 And here's a gun and come back with crazy PTSD from whatever war we sent you to.
00:33:24.000 It's not just the United States, though.
00:33:27.000 If the U.S.
00:33:29.000 I mean, and I don't know the probability of something like this happening, but let's say U.S.
00:33:33.000 bombs Iran.
00:33:34.000 Iran immediately declares full-scale mobilization.
00:33:38.000 U.S.
00:33:38.000 starts talking to its allies saying, guys, it's getting hot, we need to make moves, and then before you know it, within a couple months, no one declares it but missile strikes, air raids, troop mobilization in Pakistan, it's heating up World War III.
00:33:52.000 Joe Biden's invoke, you know, invokes a state of emergency, gives a State of the Union address saying, we need more troops.
00:33:57.000 The numbers are not enough.
00:33:58.000 We will not lose.
00:34:00.000 There are many, he's going to say like migrants.
00:34:02.000 He's not going to say illegal immigrants.
00:34:03.000 He's a many migrants in this country, love this country, and we'll fight for it.
00:34:07.000 And we are going to offer them that opportunity.
00:34:10.000 He then creates this massive military force.
00:34:12.000 Once the international conflict subsides, and there's mass destruction and death, you now have the opportunity for a global elitist or whatever to say, we can never allow this to happen again.
00:34:22.000 Therefore, we will be creating a global governing body to adjudicate disputes between factions with an international military force called the Global Task Force or whatever.
00:34:35.000 And it will be these people who come from countries where they don't quite care enough.
00:34:39.000 They leave.
00:34:40.000 They will have no problem going to Europe, to Russia, to China.
00:34:43.000 And so there will be non-national military forces.
00:34:47.000 That's a potential.
00:34:47.000 I'm not saying it's true.
00:34:48.000 I'm saying the dominoes are lined up as such.
00:34:50.000 It could land that way.
00:34:52.000 I don't like it.
00:34:52.000 It's not good.
00:34:54.000 I'm so glad I have insurrection on my record, so I'm never going to be forced to enlist.
00:34:59.000 I used to be able to play the gay card, but that's no good anymore.
00:35:03.000 Not the insurrection card.
00:35:07.000 You're too old.
00:35:07.000 I'm 47.
00:35:08.000 Go on.
00:35:09.000 I'm too old.
00:35:10.000 I committed insurrection and, well, I'm gay.
00:35:13.000 Did you think that it would be that insurrection would get you out of the army and not be gay?
00:35:19.000 I never dreamed we'd end up here.
00:35:21.000 But it is funny that you used to be too gay.
00:35:22.000 And they were like, actually, we changed our mind.
00:35:24.000 Like, that's fine.
00:35:24.000 Now I'm too insurrection.
00:35:26.000 You're way low on intersectionality scale now.
00:35:28.000 Yeah, right.
00:35:29.000 You're a white male.
00:35:31.000 And gay is still cis-heteronormative, I believe, right?
00:35:34.000 Oh, no, is it not?
00:35:35.000 It's problematic.
00:35:36.000 It's problematic.
00:35:37.000 I don't know, man, World War Three or no, what do you guys think?
00:35:41.000 I keep thinking, well, I kind of feel like we've been in it and just not defining it as such for a long time.
00:35:46.000 But I was just gonna say, as in our way with all international conflicts.
00:35:49.000 Yes, right, right.
00:35:50.000 I think they're gonna go back throughout time.
00:35:51.000 And there's so many pockets of crazy violence, battles across the world.
00:35:55.000 And they're gonna, in the future, connect us all be like, this is the conglomerate of a war.
00:36:00.000 I'm just waiting for the Gen Z historians to take over and be like, we wouldn't call it a war.
00:36:04.000 We would say it was a situationship.
00:36:06.000 We didn't really say what it was.
00:36:07.000 So this is where we're at now from the post-millennial.
00:36:10.000 Marjorie Taylor Greene brings resolution to censure Ilhan Omar over treasonous statements.
00:36:16.000 I do believe this story shows us the tensions between the political factions.
00:36:21.000 I also believe it shows a lot of it's for show.
00:36:26.000 I got to be honest.
00:36:27.000 Censure?
00:36:28.000 For treason?
00:36:30.000 Is that a joke?
00:36:31.000 Everything Republicans do is for show.
00:36:33.000 It doesn't mean anything.
00:36:34.000 How many of them have introduced articles of impeachment against Biden?
00:36:38.000 Democrats did the same thing, but I mean, like, dude, if you actually thought someone was- Yeah, but they at least had an impeachment trial!
00:36:42.000 We've just been like, I'm gonna impeach you and I'm gonna impeach you!
00:36:46.000 If Marjorie Taylor Greene, and I'd like to talk to her about this, but I'm gonna say right now, if you genuinely think it's treasonous, I think the resolution would be for a criminal referral in the immediate and an expulsion from Congress.
00:37:02.000 I see your point.
00:37:02.000 Yeah, followed by criminal charges, for which the penalty for treason is, I think it's 10 years in prison or death.
00:37:10.000 That's a bold thing to claim someone is doing.
00:37:12.000 It's quite a scale, I will say.
00:37:13.000 Yeah, it is.
00:37:13.000 It's a wide range.
00:37:14.000 It's like, we're going to give you a written warning for treason.
00:37:17.000 But the right is playing the same games as the left.
00:37:20.000 Like, they're taking important words and killing them.
00:37:23.000 Oh, I know!
00:37:24.000 That's why I keep getting mad when people say it's treason.
00:37:26.000 I'm like, no, it's sedition.
00:37:27.000 Right.
00:37:28.000 And it's like, I understand there's an overlap.
00:37:31.000 But Biden breaking the southern border, which is bringing in a bunch of random people from different countries that's destroying the nation, that's seditious.
00:37:38.000 That is destroying the fabric of the nation.
00:37:41.000 Treason would be like he met with an organized body that the U.S.
00:37:46.000 It could be treason.
00:37:47.000 Like if Joe Biden goes to the cartels and says we're gonna give you everything you want, that's a traitor to this country.
00:37:52.000 They have betrayed the country to our enemies.
00:37:55.000 Right.
00:37:56.000 There's an overlap though, I get it, but yeah.
00:37:57.000 But no, like, Benedict Arnold was selling West Point to the British.
00:38:01.000 You know, they caught the one guy, and they hang that guy.
00:38:05.000 And Arnold got away, and they put him in a nice grave in the bottom of a cathedral in Britain.
00:38:09.000 All I'm hearing is like this Scooby-Doo, like, and I would have gotten away with it too!
00:38:14.000 Well, there's also Ben Franklin's son, you know, Ian, Ian brought this up.
00:38:18.000 He was a loyalist and he fled to, I believe he fled to London where he was like, those people are nuts.
00:38:23.000 Yeah.
00:38:23.000 Yeah.
00:38:24.000 It's crazy.
00:38:24.000 It's wild.
00:38:25.000 Well, Benedict got away with a lot of stuff and, um, you know, he was married to a loyalist and he was a war vet who was, he felt like he wasn't awarded enough from his time at battle.
00:38:36.000 And so he just like, I'm going to sell West Point.
00:38:38.000 Wow.
00:38:39.000 He said, I live by my own rules.
00:38:40.000 Goodbye.
00:38:41.000 He turned West Point, like the biggest battle point of, you know, it was holding down the Hudson River and he turned it into a literal pigsty.
00:38:47.000 And then when George Washington came by, he was like, what happened here?
00:38:50.000 Where's Benedict Arnold?
00:38:51.000 Go get Benedict Arnold.
00:38:52.000 And then his wife put on a whole display, crying, fake crying.
00:38:55.000 So they say, so Benedict could get down onto the HMS Vulture and take off.
00:38:59.000 Wow.
00:38:59.000 It's crazy.
00:39:00.000 That's loyalty, ladies.
00:39:01.000 That is loyalty.
00:39:02.000 Yeah.
00:39:02.000 That's treason.
00:39:04.000 Right, so right now you've got cartels, NGOs, human smugglers, and I think there is an argument to be made for treason, but I think it's too strong, in that we're not at war with some stupid NGO.
00:39:17.000 They're just committing crimes, right?
00:39:18.000 You arrest the people who are doing it.
00:39:20.000 Biden's just not doing that, so I'd say that's sedition.
00:39:23.000 But again, more to the point, I actually, this is really funny actually, let me play this video for you.
00:39:29.000 This is good.
00:39:30.000 Here we go.
00:39:32.000 Censuring Representative Ilhan Omar of Somali- I mean, Minnesota.
00:39:37.000 Okay, bravo!
00:39:38.000 Bravo on that one!
00:39:39.000 Maybe that's why she wasn't sure what she was bringing up on charges.
00:39:42.000 She's like, I just got this good line.
00:39:44.000 I gotta get this to the floor quick.
00:39:46.000 I think there is a question though, and it's a fair argument to be had.
00:39:49.000 Everybody's really mad about Ilhan Omar saying, you know, my president and Somali and all that.
00:39:57.000 I mean, there's a lot of people who are like, we will fight for Israel.
00:40:00.000 We will do whatever, Israel, whatever they need.
00:40:03.000 You know, it is a holy land.
00:40:04.000 I mean, there's been politicians who have said on par things.
00:40:08.000 I don't like any of them.
00:40:09.000 To be, to be fair.
00:40:11.000 I'm not sure that any of the politicians who have pledged support to Israel have outright said that they are Israelis who are serving Israel, but they have said, like, we will give them whatever they want.
00:40:20.000 Haven't some of them worn, like, the flag or even uniforms?
00:40:25.000 Yeah, I'm pretty sure there are people that wore, like, American flag in Israel.
00:40:28.000 Right.
00:40:28.000 And so, I mean, there's a question of, like, hey man, I gotta be honest, I'm not a fan of any of it.
00:40:33.000 Yeah.
00:40:34.000 Like, I don't like the US spending all its money on foreign countries and all this aid, right?
00:40:39.000 And Israel gets a lot of it.
00:40:40.000 Yeah.
00:40:40.000 So everyone's mad at Ilhan Omar, but I'm kind of like, okay, I mean, fair point.
00:40:44.000 What's your position on Israel?
00:40:46.000 Because, like, I think Israel's right to defend itself, all that stuff.
00:40:49.000 I think, you know, what Hamas did is bad.
00:40:51.000 I think Hamas should be wiped out.
00:40:52.000 All that stuff.
00:40:54.000 I just don't like our politicians acting like this country is somehow deserving of everything we have to give it.
00:41:01.000 I'm like, well, it's another country.
00:41:03.000 They're entitled to their rights, their natural rights, their self-defense, all that good stuff.
00:41:06.000 I think it's a beautiful country, too.
00:41:09.000 That being said, There are a lot of people who are adamant on providing military support, massive amounts of money, and fine, if that's your argument, I'll listen, but why be mad at Ilhan Omar who wants the same thing, but for a different country?
00:41:23.000 To me, I think that there's just a general attitude.
00:41:28.000 With her, there's this ongoing sort of rhetoric about a hatred of America and our values and that things need to change and that we're inherently racist and we're inherently white supremacist and things like that.
00:41:39.000 So I think when someone like her shows an allegiance to where she comes from, it lands differently than I think somebody who actually has a love and respect for America, but also Yeah.
00:41:49.000 to support. I do recognize there's a big difference between saying something like,
00:41:54.000 Israel will get our military support, is an ally in the region, and being like,
00:41:57.000 I'm Somali from Somalia and I love my president. And you're like, wait a minute.
00:42:01.000 Yeah. And this country sucks.
00:42:03.000 I feel like you don't remember where we are right now.
00:42:05.000 Yeah. Like if someone in Congress said that, you know, Netanyahu was their boss or whatever,
00:42:09.000 we'd take that. That's a step too far.
00:42:12.000 Some people, I gotta be honest though, there have been, I think Lauren, might have been Lauren Boebert, saying something like it was a holy land.
00:42:17.000 I don't want to put words in people's mouths, but there have been members of Congress who have said like, this is the holy land, we'll defend it and we're going to work with Israel to do so and things like that.
00:42:24.000 Yeah, I mean, I've said this a couple times, but when JFK was president, everyone was like, well, he's Catholic, so his ultimate allegiance is to the Pope, and can we have that?
00:42:33.000 And he had to give a public address.
00:42:34.000 He had to, you know, pre-act putting out the threads addressing things.
00:42:38.000 He had to give a speech saying, like, this is how my faith fits into my loyalty to America.
00:42:42.000 Ultimately, I'm loyal to the Pope.
00:42:43.000 And so I think this question of who do you answer to ultimately is interesting because we need our politicians to say, my priority is to the people who elected me who are ultimately all American, although some of them live in different states and therefore have their own priorities.
00:42:43.000 Whatever.
00:42:58.000 The idea that someone is like, well, my home country is Somalia, so I like it there better.
00:43:03.000 And JFK had to come to West Virginia to earn those votes from people who were very skeptical of his Catholicism.
00:43:09.000 And he did win West Virginia.
00:43:11.000 That speech that you're talking about is worth listening to.
00:43:14.000 No, it's really powerful and I think it's something that I wish more people would study.
00:43:18.000 Omar claims that the translations were slanted by propagandists.
00:43:25.000 Yeah, I've seen reports on that.
00:43:26.000 That feels like a spin, though.
00:43:27.000 I'm always worried about that when I'm seeing stuff on Twitter going viral.
00:43:30.000 That's why I don't retweet them.
00:43:32.000 Yeah, yeah, because you don't know.
00:43:33.000 You just don't know.
00:43:34.000 And now with deepfakes, dude.
00:43:36.000 Yeah.
00:43:37.000 When someone's talking into a mic, and you can't really see their mouth, and this is all, you know, people are watching the camera.
00:43:42.000 And you could AI deepfake anything.
00:43:45.000 I showed Tim the video of Joe Biden in front of the green screen with the boom mic going through his hand.
00:43:50.000 Anything's fake.
00:43:51.000 Remember that?
00:43:52.000 That was a weird video.
00:43:53.000 Anything is fake.
00:43:55.000 You guys remember that one where Joe Biden walks up to the press corps or whatever and he leans forward and then all of a sudden one of the mics is like under his hand.
00:44:03.000 Yeah, it kind of looks like it goes right through his hand.
00:44:05.000 It's just very strange.
00:44:07.000 As if he was in front of a green screen.
00:44:08.000 I think he is in front of a green screen.
00:44:09.000 But he does film on a soundstage semi-regularly, right?
00:44:12.000 He does do that as well.
00:44:13.000 But there were other angles of this that looked normal.
00:44:16.000 There were, there were.
00:44:17.000 But I think he's either a clone sometimes, a deepfake, or AI.
00:44:19.000 But that's just me, I don't want to derail the conversation.
00:44:21.000 Shane, Shane.
00:44:22.000 But it's true.
00:44:23.000 I gotta stop, dude.
00:44:24.000 These unhinged conspiracies have no place in sane conversations.
00:44:28.000 We're clearly in a simulation.
00:44:30.000 Yeah, thank you.
00:44:31.000 Thank you, Tim.
00:44:32.000 Dude, I gotta be honest, like, I'm sitting here watching everything going on and I'm
00:44:36.000 like, yo, the world's crazy.
00:44:40.000 Well this is, I've been thinking about this a lot.
00:44:41.000 It is very crazy.
00:44:42.000 But how do we have that perspective, like, is it because when we were growing up things
00:44:45.000 seemed more normal, but now everything's just nuts?
00:44:48.000 Or are we just in some kind of simulation?
00:44:50.000 I was listening to one of your bits earlier about in the 90s when we were all younger, and it seemed like a cheerier time.
00:44:56.000 I think that's true.
00:44:57.000 It was true, but there was more of a curtain between us and the degeneracy happening in D.C.
00:45:03.000 and, you know, all over the place.
00:45:05.000 There's no more curtain anymore.
00:45:06.000 So there's degeneracies everywhere.
00:45:07.000 It was the noble journalist who shielded us from the harsh truths of D.C.
00:45:12.000 To let all the warmongers do all their warring.
00:45:15.000 And you didn't have to I think we were a happier country, though, several decades ago.
00:45:20.000 I agree.
00:45:20.000 I think there was a level of a lot more stuff could get hidden.
00:45:24.000 I'm grateful for social media because it allows certain journalists who I do trust to bring things to light.
00:45:30.000 On the other hand, the downside is the degeneracy that becomes trendy spreads much more quickly.
00:45:34.000 I'm hoping that that degeneracy starts to wane soon.
00:45:38.000 That's my psychotic optimism talking.
00:45:40.000 There was an article in the Atlantic that I haven't finished reading, so no one quote me on it, but it was talking about how there's going to be a Christian revival in America.
00:45:47.000 It's already happening.
00:45:47.000 Which I find fascinating.
00:45:48.000 It's already happening.
00:45:49.000 And younger generations tend to be more religious.
00:45:52.000 I think there was a poll out the other day, and I don't have the source, that said Gen Z males are more likely to view feminism as dangerous or bad.
00:45:59.000 There is a shift occurring, but what will be the long term effect?
00:46:03.000 Because we've already had people raised in the culture of fear and mistrust.
00:46:08.000 Well yeah, feminism should be illegal.
00:46:11.000 Women should have to wear those Handmaid's Tale things, that's right.
00:46:13.000 I love that red cloak!
00:46:14.000 I'm gonna love with you!
00:46:15.000 Wasn't Kavanaugh supposed to do that?
00:46:17.000 What happened to Kavanaugh making that happen?
00:46:18.000 Why are you here, Hannah Clare?
00:46:20.000 I ask myself this every day!
00:46:21.000 He overturned Roe v. Wade!
00:46:22.000 They're gonna agree with you!
00:46:23.000 That's right!
00:46:24.000 The thing is, we all have to agree that the cloak that they wear in Handmaid's Tale, the red one, that's cool!
00:46:30.000 That is stylish!
00:46:31.000 I mean, being forced to do things... Flip that, people.
00:46:33.000 I stand by that 100%.
00:46:34.000 The head thing, maybe impractical for driving, but should women do?
00:46:38.000 Of course, all of those women lined up to wear masks, by the way, and you can't take them off their face.
00:46:42.000 Like, don't take my mask away, the same handmaid's tale.
00:46:45.000 But then they have those scenes in the show where they're like, do we have to wear these masks?
00:46:48.000 Like, pick a side!
00:46:49.000 Thinking about all this though and like how we're kind of becoming as a society numb to all these shocking events that keep happening.
00:46:55.000 I was thinking about that crazy decapitation video that happened that came out the guy had a militia.
00:47:00.000 Did you write about it?
00:47:01.000 Yeah, I did.
00:47:01.000 The guy in Pennsylvania.
00:47:02.000 He claimed he was president of the country now and he wanted Biden kidnapped.
00:47:05.000 You know, like that's already receding from the news and like there's no shelf life to shock anymore.
00:47:10.000 Which is also crazy because he's alive.
00:47:12.000 Like he got taken into custody alive which normally you'd think they would film his appearance and there'd be other stuff but I mean, part of it is I think that he is just so crazy that it's hard for even mainstream media to spin.
00:47:23.000 I saw a couple like, MAGA supporter does whatever, but he ultimately declared himself president, so I don't know if he's super MAGA.
00:47:29.000 But even thinking about how people are, the theories fracture after that video emerges.
00:47:34.000 We can't even agree on that.
00:47:35.000 Even though there's a video of him saying these things, there's people saying literally he's, he could be MKUltra, which is very possible.
00:47:39.000 He could be, it could be AI.
00:47:41.000 The head could have been a prop, you know, like we can't even agree on things in the video, which goes back to George Floyd, you know, anything on video, January 6th, all these things.
00:47:49.000 So that's the stuff that's weird.
00:47:51.000 The break started with Trump.
00:47:53.000 I mean, if Hillary had won in 2016, we wouldn't be here.
00:47:57.000 I mean, we would still think it was the same country from Obama and W.
00:48:04.000 Everything changed after Trump, and that's when the break began.
00:48:06.000 It snowballed down, and then COVID happened.
00:48:09.000 Lockdowns.
00:48:09.000 Well, COVID wouldn't have happened if not for Trump.
00:48:11.000 Exactly.
00:48:12.000 I'm with you on that.
00:48:13.000 Some people thought the break started when Kanye stormed the stage at the VMAs and took Taylor's award.
00:48:19.000 We'll save that for another podcast.
00:48:20.000 That's good.
00:48:21.000 Let's talk about Taylor Swift.
00:48:23.000 Everyone in the chat fires me immediately.
00:48:25.000 There are many things that happened.
00:48:27.000 The biggest impact, I believe, was probably the Great Recession.
00:48:30.000 That shocked the entire system massively, which resulted in Occupy Wall Street, which resulted in an economic shift where what are young people able to do without these jobs that were lost?
00:48:45.000 Go on the internet and start posting BS, creating all these digital news websites that make BS, creating a generation of people who don't want to lift heavy things.
00:48:52.000 And the big shift was around this time, not necessarily the Great Recession.
00:48:55.000 But it's around this time with the emergence of social media, we got the rise of intersectionalism and postmodernism.
00:49:01.000 And it was because it made money.
00:49:02.000 That's the simple version.
00:49:04.000 Algorithms promoted things that generate rage.
00:49:06.000 If it makes you angry, it gets clicks, more than any other emotion.
00:49:09.000 And politics, injustice, makes people angry.
00:49:12.000 So the world is dominated by politics since then.
00:49:15.000 The avatar for that anger With more people seeing what was going on.
00:49:19.000 More people being screwed over.
00:49:21.000 We get screwed over in 2008.
00:49:22.000 Mostly, you know, Gen X and boomers and older.
00:49:26.000 And then you've got Barack Obama.
00:49:29.000 And what does he do?
00:49:31.000 He doesn't help you.
00:49:32.000 There's more war.
00:49:34.000 In the second term for Barack Obama, people were unsatisfied.
00:49:37.000 Hillary Clinton is deeply disliked, was advocating for war, and Donald Trump represented a lot of the anger people were feeling, especially young people with the rise of postmodernism.
00:49:46.000 And I know that's for a fact, because I went to like 30 plus rallies in the 2015-16 election cycle, and I'd ask young people like, why are you here?
00:49:55.000 And Janesville, Wisconsin was one memorable moment.
00:49:58.000 A fight broke out, and this is such, it's so indicative of exactly what happened.
00:50:03.000 You have, man, this one really grinds my gears.
00:50:07.000 Sorry, what rally was it?
00:50:08.000 Janesville, Wisconsin.
00:50:09.000 No, for whom?
00:50:10.000 For Trump.
00:50:10.000 Okay.
00:50:11.000 So I'm there and I see some young guys and I'm like, you know, what are you guys doing here?
00:50:14.000 Why do you support Trump?
00:50:15.000 And they're like, the political correctness is getting out of control.
00:50:17.000 They're like, we like Donald Trump because he speaks his mind and he's pushing back.
00:50:21.000 A fight broke out.
00:50:23.000 And you can find these videos.
00:50:24.000 I believe it was mike.com, I could be wrong.
00:50:26.000 But there was a young progressive woman got pepper sprayed.
00:50:31.000 What they did was they ran headlines across the board saying, Trump supporter pepper sprays young woman.
00:50:36.000 It's true, but she punched him.
00:50:38.000 She punched him in the face, he sprayed her afterwards.
00:50:41.000 I believe that that's disproportionate.
00:50:43.000 Getting punched in the face and all you do is spray someone with pepper spray?
00:50:46.000 Wow, punching the face is way worse.
00:50:48.000 What did they do?
00:50:49.000 The interaction was about one second.
00:50:52.000 The girl punches the guy, he instantly sprays.
00:50:55.000 So when these allies, I believe it was Mike, shows this argument, There's a white flash and then he's spraying her with pepper spray.
00:51:06.000 The white flash was when she punched him.
00:51:08.000 They literally edited a split second as if it was like, here's the fight and here's where he did it, when in fact the whole thing was a few seconds and they wanted to cut out that she hit him first.
00:51:19.000 Of course.
00:51:19.000 This exemplifies exactly where we've gone.
00:51:22.000 These companies wanted to make money.
00:51:25.000 We all saw that Ryan Long bit where he's like, I will sell different footage to MSNBC or to Fox, depending on what happens.
00:51:31.000 And he's like, if it's, you know, when the protester is throwing bottles at the cops, I sell it to Fox.
00:51:35.000 When the cops are attacking black, I sell it to MSNBC.
00:51:37.000 That's the game.
00:51:39.000 So when you get this, you know, progressive woman punching a guy, no one's going to click on that.
00:51:44.000 Nah, your audience wants to see the opposite.
00:51:47.000 Trump's the bad guy.
00:51:48.000 So they manipulate the media.
00:51:50.000 They did that so many times.
00:51:51.000 Sorry to cut you off.
00:51:53.000 I remember I was a Hillary supporter.
00:51:55.000 Voted for Hillary.
00:51:58.000 Sorry.
00:51:59.000 But I remember during that time in 2015 and 2016 before he got elected and it was like we were constantly hearing these stories about Trump supporters throwing black people out there and that's how and they would show the footage of a bunch of you know Trump supporters throwing a black person out What they forgot to mention was that the black person in many instances was a, you know, kind of a radical protester who oftentimes was getting violent with people.
00:52:22.000 They cut all that out and stupid people like me were like, Oh my God, Trump supporters hate black people.
00:52:27.000 They're throwing them out of rallies.
00:52:28.000 Why did that seem so believable to you at the time?
00:52:30.000 Just because you were already in sort of like progressive circles or what about it was, was, uh, because I really did believe that, So you have to remember that I didn't realize how big MAGA was, too.
00:52:44.000 I don't think any of us really did yet.
00:52:46.000 So the media was representing it as this fringe sect of the Republican Party that was small.
00:52:52.000 Remember, he was supposed to lose in a landslide.
00:52:54.000 He was supposed to get like 3% of the vote.
00:52:57.000 So I thought MAGA was this radical sect of the Republican Party that was extremely racist and bigoted, that was reacting.
00:53:02.000 It was a backlash against a black president, Barack Obama.
00:53:05.000 These people were It was a backlash against gay marriage rights that were coming to the forefront.
00:53:10.000 And it seemed believable to me that these were radical white supremacist people that were being riled up by Trump.
00:53:18.000 The media kept saying Trump, you know, calls Mexicans rapists.
00:53:21.000 He's advocating for a Muslim ban.
00:53:23.000 He wants to repeal gay rights.
00:53:26.000 That's what I thought the movement was about.
00:53:27.000 So then they'd go out and find these moments that they could show me.
00:53:30.000 See, they're throwing black people out.
00:53:31.000 They don't even want black people at the rally.
00:53:33.000 And I was like, wow, these people are terrible.
00:53:36.000 And it did seem believable.
00:53:37.000 I think once they can, the media apparatus can convince people of a caricature of someone rather than the real person, you can convince them to think anything about that person.
00:53:45.000 And they did that so beautifully with Trump because they're like, they present this cartoon figure on the news, deceptively edited, and then they'll tell you anything.
00:53:52.000 And it was, it was easily believable.
00:53:53.000 I didn't care about Trump or Hillary at 2015 or 16.
00:53:56.000 I didn't even vote.
00:53:57.000 The first time I didn't vote was that was the 2016 election.
00:54:00.000 I voted for Trump 2020.
00:54:00.000 But I was like, Noticing early on that they were doing to Trump what they were doing to certain artists that I like growing up, whether it was rappers or people in the middle community, they were turning them into a caricature.
00:54:13.000 And then people were going like, oh, it's a psychotic person, you know, but then, you know, you see the deceptively edited videos of good people on both sides, just one example.
00:54:22.000 And then you're like, well, that illusion shattering.
00:54:24.000 And then once that shatters, you kind of like, there's like a domino effect of, Did you vote in 2012?
00:54:27.000 these things can be. They've been lying to me for about everything. I'm surprised we haven't. Yeah,
00:54:32.000 yeah. I voted for Obama. I'm surprised we haven't seen more deepfakes already.
00:54:35.000 All right. More deepfakes. They're holding on to those, I think. They're coming. But
00:54:40.000 there's a certain, I think, like hypnosis and brainwashing that, that, like, do you remember
00:54:44.000 growing up and being in grade school and you would learn when you're really young, if you're in
00:54:49.000 trouble, go find a police officer, find a fireman, you know, and we were kind of taught that there's
00:54:53.000 certain institutions that you trust that are just inherently trustworthy, right?
00:54:57.000 And I thought that about the media.
00:55:00.000 Like, I did not think the media lied.
00:55:02.000 I thought, you know, if you watch, if it's, if they say it on the news, it's more than likely true.
00:55:07.000 And when Trump started talking about fake news and all this stuff, I was like, wow, this, this dude is the devil.
00:55:11.000 Like he's, you know, he's got this fringe group of psychotic weirdos that are following him.
00:55:16.000 And then he's telling them not to trust the news, not to trust the, you know, whatever.
00:55:21.000 He was right about everything.
00:55:22.000 I was primed for the fake news because I was in eighth grade as a Marilyn Manson fan when Columbine happened.
00:55:27.000 And so I see the news saying immediately Marilyn Manson is to blame for this, but I knew him as a fan being like, that doesn't seem right.
00:55:34.000 He just seems like an easy target because he looks a certain way.
00:55:36.000 I think that's an interesting question, like, when did you stop trusting the media?
00:55:39.000 When did you start to think the media could lie to you?
00:55:41.000 Like, that's a very specific experience.
00:55:42.000 For me it was around 8th grade, but they still had us under a spell for years.
00:55:45.000 But I think for everybody it's different, right?
00:55:47.000 Because if you know something is true, like you were a Marilyn Manson fan, when did you... I was in Ferguson during the riots, and CNN, I think it was Don Lemon, I don't know, they said there was no tear gas.
00:55:59.000 They were reporting that while I was standing in a field of tear gas.
00:56:01.000 And I'm just like, wow.
00:56:04.000 So weird.
00:56:05.000 When I was in the courtroom with Carrie Lake, I'm watching them basically catch people on stand lying against Carrie Lake.
00:56:05.000 They love it.
00:56:13.000 And then the NBC guys next to me, Right in a whole new reality.
00:56:17.000 And I'm watching him report on it outside.
00:56:18.000 I'm like, we started a chant outside to mock this man because I'm like, this is ridiculous.
00:56:22.000 He's totally lying.
00:56:23.000 I'm not surprised at that point because that was only a year ago.
00:56:26.000 I can't remember what the reporter said.
00:56:27.000 Was it was this the mostly peaceful protest video and like there's a summer of 2020 and there's a building burning behind him and you're sort of like, I don't know if you understand the words that you're saying.
00:56:37.000 Right.
00:56:37.000 And people may remember, too, in 2020, my organization WalkAway, we went to Dallas.
00:56:43.000 We were doing rallies all over the country.
00:56:45.000 A BLM protester came to our rally, charged the stage, got taken down by our security, and the police came and arrested the BLM protester.
00:56:54.000 Then they came and arrested our security guard as well.
00:56:56.000 So my team and I, they held our security guard for hours so we went to the police station to find out what was going on.
00:57:02.000 When we got there, there were like 30 BLM activists outside the police station holding a press conference.
00:57:07.000 ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, Telemundo.
00:57:07.000 Everybody was there.
00:57:10.000 Everyone was outside.
00:57:11.000 When we showed up, This is on video.
00:57:14.000 People have seen it.
00:57:15.000 About 20 of these guys chased us for 5 blocks, screaming they were going to kill us, throwing stuff at us, taking our phones, smashing them on the ground.
00:57:22.000 All of those media outlets followed us for 5 blocks.
00:57:25.000 ABC filmed all 5 blocks.
00:57:27.000 Most of the media outlets filmed the entire thing.
00:57:30.000 That night on the news...
00:57:31.000 They ran a story.
00:57:32.000 They ran the press conference from BLM where BLM portrayed themselves as the victims of racial injustice at the walkway event.
00:57:39.000 Mentioned nothing about what happened even though they filmed the entire thing.
00:57:41.000 This is what Chappelle talks about in his last special about when he's attacked on stage by the homeless person and then there's basically hit pieces against Chappelle talking to the homeless person and making him the victim.
00:57:51.000 Yeah.
00:57:52.000 And what you said a second ago about Marilyn Manson, I mean, that's, that's why they were able to get away with what they got away with, with Jacob Chansley, the QAnon shaman.
00:57:52.000 Dude had a knife.
00:58:00.000 Right.
00:58:01.000 Because he looked unusual.
00:58:03.000 So they're like, perfect.
00:58:03.000 He looks on you and the left, the left who so loves to be like, you know, diversity and let people be their own person.
00:58:09.000 And, you know, everyone's unique, whatever.
00:58:11.000 So you've got this guy wearing paint, whatever.
00:58:12.000 They're like, he's a weirdo.
00:58:14.000 Get him, get the weirdo.
00:58:15.000 Yeah, it made no after a summer of riots and fires You're right
00:58:19.000 and then this little thing on January 6 with a guy with a The mask and or the paint on they but they will turn anyone
00:58:25.000 into the villain who ended up being the most gentle person on
00:58:28.000 January legit and the craziest thing I think about January 6 is the videos of guys
00:58:32.000 Who are clearly Trump supporters who the first thing they do is they go up and talk to cops and say?
00:58:37.000 What do you need us to do?
00:58:38.000 And the cops are like, help us push people back.
00:58:40.000 And they're like, you got it.
00:58:41.000 And then these guys, they're wearing like, you know, military looking stuff or whatever, but they go to the cops first.
00:58:46.000 They're not fighting with cops.
00:58:47.000 They're like, what do you need?
00:58:48.000 Get these people out.
00:58:49.000 And they go, okay.
00:58:50.000 And start telling everyone to leave.
00:58:51.000 And they go to prison.
00:58:52.000 Alex Jones is on video saying, don't go in.
00:58:54.000 People keep telling me Alex Jones told people to go in.
00:58:56.000 What?
00:58:56.000 Right.
00:58:56.000 That's not how it happened.
00:58:58.000 Owen Shroyer goes to jail for being outside at a permanent rally.
00:59:00.000 They had a permit for what they were doing.
00:59:02.000 Yeah, it's getting crazy out there.
00:59:02.000 Right.
00:59:04.000 Let's jump to this story from scnr.com.
00:59:07.000 Shout out to our good friend, Anna Kasparian.
00:59:09.000 She has called for the asylum seekers who attacked police to be deported immediately.
00:59:14.000 This story's wild.
00:59:14.000 I believe it was five criminal aliens mercilessly beat a couple police officers and were released immediately without bail.
00:59:22.000 And I sit back and I put my feet up and I go, well, okay, what's the problem?
00:59:26.000 You got what you voted for.
00:59:28.000 Well anyway, now Kathy Hochul is saying they should be deported, and Anna Kasparian said they should be deported immediately.
00:59:34.000 I love the asylum seekers.
00:59:36.000 I didn't know that we used those terms here, but I suppose if it's true, it's true.
00:59:41.000 Kasparian was discussing a mob of asylum seekers.
00:59:45.000 I wonder, is that on purpose, Cassandra?
00:59:49.000 Like, they all can be like, I am seeking asylum, thank you, even if they're here illegally.
00:59:53.000 I'll tell you how I take it.
00:59:54.000 It's like taking the asylum seeker, the left likes to say, and then saying, was a violent mob that brutally attacked police officers, you know what I mean?
01:00:01.000 Anyway, they attacked two New York cops in Times Square Saturday night.
01:00:05.000 Seven were arrested and quickly released without bail.
01:00:07.000 The progressive YouTube personality responded on her show by saying that seeking asylum here is a privilege, not a right.
01:00:12.000 Let's see.
01:00:12.000 We have a clip here.
01:00:13.000 If it's too long, I don't want to play the full thing.
01:00:15.000 If we can even get it to play.
01:00:18.000 Let's do that and open it up on the old X and see if it'll play there.
01:00:23.000 These are not people you need to provide cover for.
01:00:25.000 These are people who are in the country claiming asylum.
01:00:29.000 They don't have a right to be here.
01:00:31.000 It is a privilege to be able to take advantage of our asylum program.
01:00:37.000 So the left is now saying, it is a right, not a privilege.
01:00:42.000 Anna Kasparian is correct.
01:00:43.000 And I got a couple things to say.
01:00:44.000 I'll stress.
01:00:47.000 Asylum is a privilege we offer you, and we don't have to.
01:00:50.000 We are nice people.
01:00:51.000 I ain't got no reason to let anybody in my house.
01:00:53.000 If I'm a nice person, I'll try and help them out.
01:00:55.000 The second thing is, congratulations Anna, you deserve these people because you lie all the time.
01:00:59.000 So, have fun.
01:01:00.000 I'll agree with you on the political message, I won't disagree on what you're saying, but I'm not gonna provide defense for someone like Anna who lies on her show, particularly about me, and when the left comes and is mad at her, Good!
01:01:16.000 These are your allies and your friends, so bend the knee or shut up because I ain't coming to your defense.
01:01:21.000 She's got a point though.
01:01:22.000 I mean it's if you're...
01:01:24.000 Once upon a time, when people used to come to our country seeking asylum, it's because they were really running from something that was like life or death.
01:01:33.000 They were seeking salvation.
01:01:34.000 What, if you're Canadian or Mexican?
01:01:36.000 I'm saying, if that's the situation you're in, maybe on day one, don't come in the country and start beating up police officers.
01:01:41.000 Well, if you're Canadian or Mexican.
01:01:43.000 If you're from Honduras, you go to Mexico.
01:01:43.000 Okay.
01:01:47.000 You're supposed to stop at the next country that can offer you asylum.
01:01:51.000 Instead, they're like, we're just going to keep going till we get to America.
01:01:54.000 If you're in dire need, you don't just continue on forever and ever.
01:01:57.000 If I was elected Supreme Chancellor, the first thing I would do is I would immediately bang the gavel and say, asylum only applies to people who come from countries neighboring the United States.
01:02:07.000 If you flew here, my question is, why did you choose here?
01:02:10.000 Sorry, buh-bye.
01:02:11.000 If you came here from Mexico and you said, here's what's happening, we'll review your case.
01:02:15.000 And I got to tell you this.
01:02:16.000 If everybody who came here came to the border and said, I'm seeking asylum, and they were all Mexican, I'd be willing to actually bring them in and say, OK, you can come in.
01:02:27.000 We'll find you a place.
01:02:28.000 We'll set up a date for your hearing.
01:02:30.000 Because they're actually from a country where we understand there are political issues pertaining to cartels, people have been killed, and the number would be substantially less.
01:02:38.000 The problem now is, they're coming from Africa.
01:02:41.000 They're flying from Africa to Brazil, taking these... It costs like 10 grand to do.
01:02:47.000 And then they get to the American border and they go, um, asylum?
01:02:49.000 And it's like, bro, you passed through 17 countries to get here!
01:02:52.000 You're done!
01:02:54.000 You were running from a burglar!
01:02:55.000 Bro, he's 50 miles away!
01:02:56.000 There's people in Yuma talking about paying, they're coming across the border paying people to carry their Louis Vuitton luggage.
01:03:03.000 Yeah, I mean, it's weird.
01:03:05.000 It's very strange.
01:03:06.000 And it's the same thing, people fly into Canada and cross through the northern border.
01:03:09.000 I mean, we did bring in a certain number of asylum seekers after Biden's botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, right?
01:03:15.000 We said, these are people who we've now put in danger.
01:03:17.000 They worked with our government and we brought them here.
01:03:19.000 But for me, the issue with asylum, and I want to be as compassionate as possible, is that We are saying, ultimately, we're allowing you to stay here.
01:03:27.000 We're not saying that we're going to let you stay here for a couple years and eventually, when your country stabilizes, you can go back.
01:03:32.000 Ultimately, we are just saying this is a form of immigration that we allow.
01:03:36.000 And I think that's part of the misleading narrative.
01:03:39.000 There's sort of this pretend, like, ultimately, you'll be reunified as a country, but actually, probably not.
01:03:43.000 You're just here for good.
01:03:44.000 We need to be more honest about what the things that we are offering the people who come into this country are.
01:03:48.000 I just think it's disloyal.
01:03:50.000 It's not good to mislead the American voters.
01:03:53.000 There are not that many Mexican citizens relative to all of the other countries.
01:03:59.000 And so, if someone comes here and they can make a legitimate, let's just say, a preliminary claim, we can say okay.
01:04:09.000 Right now what's happening is, Joe Biden's, the Biden administration is opening up the gates, destroying state property, and saying, everybody, just, whatever, have fun.
01:04:17.000 And they never show up for the asylum, they are not asylum seekers.
01:04:20.000 That is just absolutely not true.
01:04:22.000 And so, this is still propaganda.
01:04:25.000 Anna Kasparian saying, asylum seekers, it's not a right, it's a privilege, already shifting the narrative.
01:04:30.000 They are criminal aliens who have lied to exploit our system and are committing crimes.
01:04:35.000 It is not a right.
01:04:36.000 Y'all can go get the ICE buses and send them back to their home countries.
01:04:42.000 They are not seeking asylum.
01:04:44.000 But the side point, of course, is Anna Kasparian has, on numerous occasions now, along with Cenk Uygur, come out with positions that are anti-leftist.
01:04:54.000 Probably because they saw the writing on the wall.
01:04:56.000 I think the Young Turks realize that Yo, the immigration issue?
01:05:01.000 What was the other issue that came out on crime?
01:05:04.000 Crime and immigration ain't winning you any friends.
01:05:06.000 And so the left is pro-crime and pro-illegal immigration.
01:05:09.000 They are.
01:05:10.000 I'm not trying to exaggerate.
01:05:11.000 They are.
01:05:11.000 They literally make sure to say, be gay, do crime.
01:05:14.000 You're not going to be able to come out and tell me they oppose it.
01:05:16.000 So, they're for it.
01:05:18.000 You're going to lose elections.
01:05:20.000 I think Cenk Uygur and Anna Kasparian want to win power for their political faction, but, sorry, you are now, your political faction is cohabitating with far-left extremists who want to see the country burn.
01:05:33.000 Has Eric Adams said anything about this yet?
01:05:35.000 I've been checked today.
01:05:36.000 I just saw Hogle's comment.
01:05:40.000 He's been surprisingly open, vocal about the problem with the illegal immigration.
01:05:45.000 He's been open about it, but also he, I think, should do more with the county surrounding him.
01:05:51.000 So for a while he was just in the middle of the night busing people to hotels in the surrounding counties and it was the county commissioners there saying, we don't want this.
01:05:59.000 We didn't ask for this.
01:06:00.000 You're the one who said that New York was a sanctuary city and now you're making it so it's our burden as well.
01:06:05.000 And this was true.
01:06:06.000 I mean, HOCL has also helped disperse illegal immigrants throughout the state.
01:06:11.000 And I think that is sort of this interesting I mean, I'm sure there's always a little bit of tension between, you know, more rural New York and New York City, but there is even more tension now when they're saying, you guys led us into this position, we can't afford or want to deal with this, and yet you think you have the right to just say, well, all of your communities are inferior to ours and can serve our needs.
01:06:37.000 Right.
01:06:38.000 Remember, they were flying in illegal immigrants to Westchester, White Plains, which is just north, for those who don't know, just north of the city.
01:06:44.000 What would you do, question for anybody, if you were the mayor of a city seeing an influx of illegal immigrants?
01:06:51.000 Build a wall.
01:06:53.000 If you're the mayor of the city?
01:06:55.000 Yeah, you're Eric Adams right now.
01:06:56.000 What do you do?
01:06:58.000 Can you deport everybody?
01:06:59.000 I mean, that's my question.
01:07:01.000 Where?
01:07:02.000 So, like, put them on a bus and send them to Los Angeles?
01:07:03.000 Yeah.
01:07:04.000 You ship them back to the Texas border?
01:07:06.000 To Raven or Newsom.
01:07:07.000 I think one of the things is, just because I don't totally know what resources are available to mayors, is that you would hopefully need to have a governor who is like, yes, we will remove them.
01:07:15.000 We will support you.
01:07:15.000 Because theoretically, your local law enforcement, like, if you're the mayor of a small town, you don't necessarily have all the resources to say, we're getting you out of here.
01:07:22.000 You know, for those that have played Baldur's Gate 3, there's this really great scenario, which you don't need to know the game to understand.
01:07:28.000 Where, um, the game has three acts.
01:07:31.000 In act three, you make your way to a city called Baldur's Gate.
01:07:34.000 It's a city.
01:07:35.000 And it is being besieged.
01:07:37.000 There's a war going on.
01:07:39.000 Refugees are pouring in.
01:07:41.000 And there's, uh, right when you get into the outskirts of the city, which you could describe as the suburbs, I suppose, there's a guy arguing with squatters who are refugees saying, your house is empty, it's ours.
01:07:49.000 And you choose who to side with.
01:07:51.000 The guy who owns the house, who is traveling, comes back to find his house occupied, or the squatters.
01:07:55.000 It's up to you.
01:07:57.000 There's a character in the game named Minthara.
01:07:59.000 She is an authoritarian, uh, I guess you'd- authorite, I guess?
01:08:05.000 She's a paladin who thinks, like, she's just like a brutal dictatorial kind of personality.
01:08:08.000 There's a really funny moment where you talk to her at the- at the gates to the city with all the refugees everywhere, and she's like, I do not understand why they're not allowing these refugees into the city!
01:08:19.000 And then you can respond like, wow, I didn't think you of all people would- would help refugees, and she goes, help them!
01:08:24.000 We can use the labor!
01:08:25.000 And it makes me think, like, it's something like that, I'm paraphrasing, but it's really funny, and I'm kinda like, I don't see anything wrong with that.
01:08:33.000 What is wrong with someone coming to this country and saying, please help me, I need asylum?
01:08:38.000 And our response being, I gotta be honest, I don't know or care if you need asylum, you come here, we put you to work.
01:08:45.000 What's the moral failing of that?
01:08:47.000 Well, I don't think there's a moral failing, but I think that already happens.
01:08:50.000 And I don't think it's a great system.
01:08:51.000 No, no, no, no, no, no.
01:08:53.000 They're unleashing these people into cities and giving them cash and putting them in hotels.
01:08:53.000 I'm sorry.
01:08:58.000 I'm saying like, okay, what job can you do?
01:09:01.000 And we're going to make you work.
01:09:02.000 I suppose the problem is it disrupts the economy for lower skilled labor in the United States who are trying to make money for themselves.
01:09:08.000 Exactly.
01:09:09.000 I mean, this is something that when, if I'm remembering this correctly, When Reagan and Carter were.
01:09:18.000 I can't talk right now.
01:09:20.000 Reagan and Carter are both running for president.
01:09:23.000 Carter won West Virginia in part because West Virginians were concerned about the effect of immigration on the country, right?
01:09:30.000 Places with lower skilled or maybe union workers ultimately are the ones who feel the brunt of it.
01:09:35.000 It's not people who have elite white collar jobs who feel the effects of immigration the same way.
01:09:40.000 And I think, I mean, Larry Elder when he was here the other day talked about the fact that inner city black men or black communities are Disproportionately affected by illegal immigration because of the disruption to the economy.
01:09:50.000 I think also, ultimately, you can also say that this is sort of one of the like, like I remember being in high school and having this conversation with someone.
01:09:58.000 He was like, well, you're not going to pick food out of a farm.
01:10:01.000 and you wanna be like, so you admit that you see them as inferior workers.
01:10:04.000 You know how much- You're here to do backbreaking labor.
01:10:07.000 Fruit harvesting gets paid like, this was 10 years ago, I went to farms in California,
01:10:12.000 15 to 20 bucks an hour.
01:10:13.000 No joke.
01:10:15.000 And they had illegal immigrants working there.
01:10:16.000 I talked to some young kids who were skateboarding, and I asked them like, you know,
01:10:20.000 what do you think about what's going on?
01:10:21.000 There's these controversies, and they said their parents are undocumented.
01:10:25.000 And so they were born here, but their parents, they work and they're scared about what's gonna happen
01:10:29.000 with Trump and all that.
01:10:30.000 And I was like, how much do you, how much do you guys make picking fruit here?
01:10:33.000 And they're like, oh, like $15 starting.
01:10:35.000 But if you've been here for a while, it's like 20 bucks an hour.
01:10:36.000 And I'm like, I know a lot of Americans who would love to make 20 bucks an hour just picking fruit.
01:10:40.000 The other thing is that undocumented workers or undocumented minors who come across the border if they're teenagers or whatever are often the people who will work undetected.
01:10:49.000 You'll see these cases where it's like a big manufacturing plant or whatever gets busted for child labor and then typically you can find out in the release that the children are actually undocumented in some capacity because, you know, they're not necessarily expected to be in school or whatever else because they're not registered in the same way that American citizens are, meaning that they're not protected from some of the abuses we wouldn't subject our own children to.
01:11:09.000 I got it.
01:11:09.000 If I was the mayor of New York or Chicago, I'd build a pyramid.
01:11:15.000 Like the Bass Pro Shop pyramid?
01:11:17.000 Just a bunch of rocks.
01:11:20.000 My question about the moral failings of saying you can come here but you have to work is not about the economics, which we understand.
01:11:26.000 We understand that disrupting the economy is bad.
01:11:29.000 The question is, is it morally wrong to make an asylum seeker do work?
01:11:34.000 No.
01:11:35.000 No, I don't think so.
01:11:35.000 I think, you know, if you come to my house and say, can I crash on your couch?
01:11:38.000 I'll be like, do the dishes and vacuum the floors and you contribute and you can stay here.
01:11:42.000 Like I'll pay the rent and cover utilities.
01:11:43.000 You, you, you, you, like we, we, we, we trade, right?
01:11:47.000 But what do you do?
01:11:48.000 What, what, what could Eric Adams do?
01:11:50.000 You can't deport.
01:11:51.000 Deporting internally in the United States just means putting on a bus and sending them somewhere else.
01:11:55.000 That's basically what was happening with DeSantis in Texas.
01:11:58.000 That's what Giuliani did to the homeless.
01:12:00.000 That's right.
01:12:01.000 In my neck of the woods, yeah.
01:12:01.000 I got to deport them.
01:12:03.000 But what if?
01:12:04.000 And you don't want to put them to work because then they're going to disrupt low-skill labor for the people who live in the city.
01:12:13.000 So they need to be occupied.
01:12:15.000 They need something to do.
01:12:19.000 I say find some plot of land just outside of the city that's, you know, not being used and just start building a pyramid, guys.
01:12:26.000 So you're a pharaoh?
01:12:27.000 I mean, the thing is, the pyramid's useless.
01:12:30.000 Yeah, it looks cool, though.
01:12:31.000 Occupies their time, makes them do something, and doesn't disrupt the economy.
01:12:35.000 I think part of the issue, I mean, beyond the economic impact, part of the issue is someone who migrates illegally is committing to taking on the responsibilities of citizenship and the culture, right?
01:12:35.000 Sick.
01:12:45.000 And we already talked about the fact that the culture is sort of hard to define.
01:12:47.000 There are a lot of reasons that we don't have a strong national culture right now.
01:12:50.000 But, you know, You could say, yes, you can come here and work, but are you saying, and commit to our lifestyle and uphold our values and believe in our constitution and our way of government?
01:12:59.000 I just don't think you are.
01:13:01.000 I think that there is more to it than just saying, well, while you're here, do something.
01:13:04.000 You have to be committed to being here.
01:13:06.000 This is reminding me of when I was a professor at a community college in New York, and an observation I had was that So English for freshmen in college.
01:13:16.000 And a lot of those kids just came here from Mexico and hardly knew English.
01:13:22.000 Those kids worked harder than everyone else in the class who had been from that town.
01:13:26.000 And they had values.
01:13:27.000 They were talking about Ben Shapiro in class, openly.
01:13:30.000 Crazy.
01:13:31.000 Ladies and gentlemen, we've got a warning from Alex Jones.
01:13:34.000 I'm going to play this clip for you.
01:13:35.000 I have no idea what he's going to say.
01:13:36.000 Hopefully he's warning about a terror attack.
01:13:40.000 Let's play this clip and see what he says.
01:13:43.000 We've got a great team on the border right now, Chase Geiser and some amazing other people.
01:13:48.000 I'm not going to say their names.
01:13:50.000 And they met with good federal agents today who showed them the memo that they're saying imminent white supremacist attacks in Eagle Pass.
01:13:58.000 Now, whether that's a real threat or not, the point is good people gave us this information.
01:14:03.000 It fits of the whole Biden narrative to demonize the American people and to try to Legitimize a totally open border and all the crime and all the sex trafficking is happening.
01:14:11.000 So obviously we believe it's probably a false flag.
01:14:14.000 There are some actual crazy people out there as well in this whole.
01:14:18.000 Crisis that America is in right now.
01:14:20.000 I'd say 90% chance that yeah, they're probably provocateurs.
01:14:23.000 But regardless, this is real intel.
01:14:26.000 This is real information.
01:14:27.000 We've got crew down there right now.
01:14:28.000 We're reporting on it all at InfoWars.com.
01:14:30.000 I'll be on the air tomorrow 11 a.m.
01:14:32.000 Central on my regular show covering it all as well.
01:14:35.000 But our crew is down there at the border and this comes directly from high-level sources.
01:14:39.000 So this is major breaking news that the feds have told the major border patrol facility uh there in south texas prepare for imminent white supremacist attack on the border patrol so we're getting this out ahead of time hopefully this exposure will stop it if it's actually a real plan i don't know all the answers i don't know if it's a false flag i don't know
01:15:01.000 If it's false info from the Feds, I don't know if it's real.
01:15:04.000 I don't know.
01:15:05.000 But the report from the Feds and the memo is 100% real.
01:15:08.000 So, ladies and gentlemen, let's pray for the Border Patrol and others down there.
01:15:12.000 And just thank God we got eyes and ears on this.
01:15:14.000 We're going to stop this.
01:15:15.000 God bless and good luck.
01:15:17.000 Man, I don't know.
01:15:18.000 We do know, uh, in this story from Daily Caller, ICE confirms it finally nabbed terrorists allowed to roam free for almost a year.
01:15:25.000 The guy who was in Pennsylvania who, uh, beheaded his own dad was known to the FBI.
01:15:31.000 So, I kinda, you know, I kinda wonder about these things, but...
01:15:31.000 Yeah.
01:15:38.000 I don't know why anyone actually aligned with Trump would go and attack anyone down there.
01:15:45.000 I know why the feds would stage something.
01:15:47.000 This is why, you know, looking at everything going on right now, Trump is leading.
01:15:55.000 CNN's projected Trump to win if the election were to be held today.
01:15:58.000 For what purpose would someone decide to destroy all of that?
01:16:02.000 You're anti-Trump and you're anti-Christian if you're doing that.
01:16:05.000 Like the guy with the manifesto with his father's severed head.
01:16:08.000 He claimed to be Christian, claimed to be— These guys are all—they're not.
01:16:12.000 They're not.
01:16:13.000 They're the anti-that, and they're either, I believe, feds or accelerationists who don't care, and they want to just see the whole country burn so they can step in and do whatever.
01:16:20.000 Or Mohn's case, I think, actually insane.
01:16:22.000 Might be.
01:16:23.000 I'm still, I still don't know.
01:16:25.000 Because he could just be ultra, like MK ultra insane.
01:16:28.000 That would still be crazy though, yeah?
01:16:29.000 No matter how he got there.
01:16:29.000 Still insane.
01:16:30.000 But that would mean that he's been weaponized by the government to be insane.
01:16:34.000 What about the guy who was found with all the weapons?
01:16:36.000 Right.
01:16:37.000 Like a, a theme park or something?
01:16:37.000 In that, what was it?
01:16:39.000 It was in a mall or something, yeah.
01:16:40.000 And he said, he said, I think it was a theme park.
01:16:42.000 He's like, I don't, I don't want to do this.
01:16:43.000 I didn't want to do this.
01:16:43.000 I just wanted to come here when it was closed or something like that.
01:16:45.000 Or the guy in Maine who killed all those people.
01:16:48.000 You know, who was also, yeah, well, the one that was just this past fall, I believe.
01:16:52.000 Oh, and he was found in a, like, box truck?
01:16:54.000 At the dumpster outside or something.
01:16:56.000 But he killed a lot of people.
01:16:56.000 Something like that.
01:16:57.000 At Walmart, yeah.
01:16:58.000 And he was also at a mental institution prior, hearing voices, then let loose.
01:17:02.000 Well, there was that transgender-identifying person, I think in Oregon, who was, arrested before an attack happened, but had been known to
01:17:12.000 the FBI posting all kinds of things.
01:17:14.000 Interesting case because the person was both biologically male, identified as female,
01:17:18.000 and also said that they had been going to white supremacist rallies with their
01:17:23.000 now deceased boyfriend. It's a very weird story.
01:17:25.000 My gut tells me stuff like this, if you are out there being a part of this, if it's going to
01:17:31.000 happen, you are probably being set up and it's a Governor Whitmer situation. Where there's 20
01:17:36.000 people and there's two of you and they're going to destroy you and then use you to destroy the rest of everyone.
01:17:41.000 Or activists come down, and one guy they don't know shows up, because not everybody knows each other, starts some kind of conflict.
01:17:48.000 Re-ups.
01:17:49.000 Shows up.
01:17:50.000 Right.
01:17:50.000 At the border.
01:17:51.000 Look, at Occupy Wall Street, what would happen?
01:17:54.000 And I believe it was actually leftists that would do this.
01:17:57.000 I know they actually had this in their plans.
01:17:59.000 You find a peaceful protest.
01:18:00.000 Again, far leftists.
01:18:02.000 We would call them black, black anarchists at the time.
01:18:04.000 Now we'd refer to them as Antifa because it's like the name.
01:18:08.000 50 peaceful protesters organize a rally saying we want to hold up signs.
01:18:13.000 The left wants to radicalize them.
01:18:15.000 So what they'll do is they'll have one person dress up in all black, go into the middle of the crowd, and then chuck a rock or a bottle at a cop.
01:18:23.000 The cops then bring out orange netting and wrap everybody up and arrest all of them.
01:18:28.000 Then when all these people, you get some 22-year-old college woman, she's in jail crying, being like, I don't understand, I was just standing there.
01:18:36.000 And then the person who orchestrated it goes, you see how evil they are?
01:18:40.000 You should join us.
01:18:42.000 That's the end of the play.
01:18:43.000 It goes back to what I was saying earlier about caricatures.
01:18:46.000 If you can convince people of a caricature, and there's already the caricature of the MAGA extremists.
01:18:50.000 Biden had a whole speech about it.
01:18:51.000 They're the biggest threat.
01:18:53.000 This is confirmation bias for the people who buy into the caricature.
01:18:56.000 It's crazy.
01:18:57.000 And I talked to a lot of people about this and like, they're my family who aren't as plugged in to this world as we might be.
01:19:03.000 And they'll be like, how could you even think that?
01:19:04.000 It's grotesque to even question this.
01:19:06.000 It's a terrorist threat.
01:19:07.000 It's a beheading.
01:19:08.000 This is awful.
01:19:09.000 But when you know about things like Operation Northwoods, that were people like the Joint Chiefs of Staff planning horrible false flags to start a war with Cuba, it makes it so I have to question anything.
01:19:09.000 It is awful.
01:19:19.000 And I know I have a skepticism bias with Reality.
01:19:22.000 And I'm very reluctant to believe anything.
01:19:24.000 That's my own problem.
01:19:26.000 But you kind of have to lead with that in times of war, which I do believe we're in a time of war.
01:19:30.000 But what is a white supremacist attack?
01:19:33.000 I mean, we talk about this like it's a thing, like we know what that is.
01:19:36.000 They're going to blame it on some type of contingent that they can match up with the Justin Moen type character and anyone else from J6, who knows?
01:19:44.000 And then talk about it and being like, they're going to go bomb a You know, border patrol.
01:19:48.000 But in the last eight years, and honestly probably more than that, there are only two incidents that they can even describe as a white supremacist attack, Charlottesville and January 6th.
01:20:00.000 Charlottesville was pretty much a nothing burger.
01:20:05.000 Why not just say border radicals?
01:20:09.000 A group of border radicals.
01:20:10.000 Because they've been selling a certain narrative about MAGA extremists who are white supremacist adjacent in their minds.
01:20:16.000 And we might understand that there's been white supremacist attacks.
01:20:20.000 I'm putting that in quotes for those listening.
01:20:21.000 But to them, they think there's been a whole slew of white supremacist attacks.
01:20:25.000 This is the FBI saying it.
01:20:27.000 This isn't Alyssa Milano.
01:20:28.000 I mean, the FBI is like, oh my god, the white supremacists are coming.
01:20:32.000 What is the history?
01:20:33.000 I'm just going to start referring to leftists as white supremacists.
01:20:36.000 Well, they are.
01:20:37.000 They legit are.
01:20:38.000 But this is the thing.
01:20:39.000 We do think they are.
01:20:41.000 Segregation.
01:20:42.000 Speaking down to black people.
01:20:44.000 Believing black people aren't smart enough to get IDs.
01:20:46.000 They're white supremacists.
01:20:49.000 Whatever our faction is, we try so hard to steal man and actually honor the arguments, but that doesn't work for the average person who's apolitical.
01:20:58.000 Yeah.
01:20:58.000 So, you know, let me just say that the Krasensteins are white supremacists.
01:21:01.000 I think they genuinely are.
01:21:02.000 Yeah.
01:21:02.000 I think Ana Kasparian is a white supremacist.
01:21:04.000 I think she genuinely is.
01:21:05.000 And I'm not trying to be funny.
01:21:06.000 I think these people hold views where they'll deny, of course, we're not white supremacists, but if you were to bring up, like, is a black-only space permitted if you made, they're gonna say yes.
01:21:18.000 And they're going to make an argument that is overtly racist.
01:21:20.000 They're going to be in favor of affirmative action.
01:21:22.000 What does affirmative action mean?
01:21:24.000 Yo, affirmative action at like Harvard, for instance, this lawsuit, an Asian kid, two Asian kids, what the left does is it look at them both and they go, they look like each other, so they're not allowed in school.
01:21:35.000 That's racist, that makes no sense.
01:21:38.000 You could get an Asian kid from South Central who's like, not the same culture as a kid from China, but they're just like, but they look the same, so we're not gonna, they're racist, they're white supremacists.
01:21:47.000 Mark Cuban is a white supremacist.
01:21:49.000 Mark Cuban is absolutely a white supremacist.
01:21:51.000 I will say this unequivocally, Mark Cuban, I hope you hear this, you are a white supremacist, you are, I mean, he's even reposting all these posts from people talking about Jews, thinking he's being clever by doing it, I just think the dude is a deep-seated white supremacist.
01:22:09.000 His whole view is that... Mark Cuban made this argument that if you have too many white people, you need to start asking yours... I mean, this is a remarkable white supremacist argument he made.
01:22:20.000 He's like, you run a successful business for five years and you look around and all your 30 employees are all white.
01:22:25.000 So you think, I should hire a black woman.
01:22:28.000 Yo, you're a white supremacist.
01:22:30.000 In your mind, the idea that you're surrounded by white people with a successful business, I mean, think about where that starts.
01:22:36.000 What he is telling you is, his business succeeded on his predisposition to only hire white people.
01:22:43.000 Okay, let me stress this.
01:22:46.000 He doesn't understand that he's saying this.
01:22:48.000 What he is saying, projection is everything.
01:22:52.000 When someone says something to you like, Uh, I'll tell you, I knew someone who worked at Fusion when I worked there, and she said to me one time, she's like, be honest with me, Tim, like, how many of your friends, like, you're hanging out with the guys, like, how many of them are joking and laughing about, like, raping women?
01:23:07.000 And I was like, are you kidding me?
01:23:09.000 None.
01:23:10.000 And she goes, no, no, no, come on, be honest, like, how many?
01:23:11.000 And I was like, zero!
01:23:13.000 Are you for real?
01:23:15.000 In her worldview, When she sees guys she actually thinks they're all having parties talking about raping women.
01:23:21.000 Right.
01:23:22.000 Genuinely from this feminist narrative.
01:23:23.000 Mark Cuban in his mind is thinking businesses are predisposed to succeed With tons of white people working there.
01:23:33.000 I don't have that preconception.
01:23:35.000 He's quite literally, the fact that he made the argument scenario, it's been five years, your business is successful, and you look around and it's all white guys.
01:23:43.000 I'm like, okay.
01:23:45.000 What makes you think that's the scenario to choose from?
01:23:48.000 That could be you're in a majority white neighborhood, they exist.
01:23:53.000 And then he immediately says, I should hire a black woman.
01:23:55.000 Yeah, because you're racist.
01:23:56.000 You think that a black woman's perspective is fundamentally different from a white person?
01:24:01.000 Absolutely.
01:24:02.000 Yeah, that's racist.
01:24:03.000 Soft bigotry of low expectations.
01:24:05.000 I mean, beyond that, it's the assumption that I shared with him that video I saw this weekend.
01:24:11.000 It's from Jubilee.
01:24:11.000 It's awesome.
01:24:12.000 Six black guys and a white guy, all wearing blindfolds.
01:24:15.000 And the goal is to figure out who the white guy is.
01:24:17.000 And they can't.
01:24:19.000 The white guy talks and he's from South Central.
01:24:21.000 They can't figure out who he is.
01:24:22.000 They vote a bunch of people off.
01:24:23.000 They vote black guys.
01:24:24.000 They vote for black guys to be white.
01:24:26.000 They're like, that guy sounds white.
01:24:26.000 He's out.
01:24:28.000 I said that to him.
01:24:28.000 I'm like, imagine you actually put on a blindfold and tried to hire the black woman.
01:24:33.000 Or imagine you looked at a resume and tried to... You wouldn't be able to.
01:24:37.000 You might look down and be like, ah, they went to school in South Central.
01:24:39.000 They must be black.
01:24:40.000 And then a white guy walks in and you're like, huh?
01:24:42.000 Because the argument he's making has nothing to do with it.
01:24:45.000 So anyway, long story short.
01:24:47.000 Oh yeah, Mark Cuban, hands down, is a white supremacist.
01:24:50.000 That's not an exaggeration either.
01:24:51.000 Just because they're doing the like...
01:24:57.000 The royalty of, ah, but we're so much better than they are.
01:25:00.000 Right.
01:25:00.000 The lonely people need our help.
01:25:02.000 That's what he's doing.
01:25:03.000 They'd be nothing without us.
01:25:04.000 Which is awful.
01:25:04.000 That's like an awful, awful racist.
01:25:06.000 Yeah.
01:25:07.000 They literally think that.
01:25:09.000 They need you to survive.
01:25:11.000 I'm sweetened.
01:25:11.000 Yes.
01:25:12.000 You should.
01:25:12.000 Yes.
01:25:12.000 Also, somebody should clip that segment because it was hilarious.
01:25:15.000 While we're at it, can someone make like some pictures of him in a certain white hood, perhaps?
01:25:19.000 Mark Cuban?
01:25:20.000 I think he needs that on Twitter.
01:25:21.000 No, I don't know about any of the meme stuff.
01:25:22.000 Disavow, disavow.
01:25:23.000 No, Tim's not asking for that.
01:25:24.000 That's me.
01:25:25.000 Just send those directly to Shane Cashman.
01:25:27.000 It's better than the Pelosi AI things I've been getting.
01:25:30.000 So you're still getting them because you slow down. I feel like you're seeking them out at this point.
01:25:33.000 Yeah, imagine that's my thing.
01:25:35.000 I just think it's interesting that like when we hear terms like white supremacist attack,
01:25:41.000 it's like we've all become so conditioned to believe that that's a thing,
01:25:45.000 but there's literally like no precedent and no history to back it up. Like when the Milkovskys
01:25:50.000 went out and protected their property, it was, you know, BLM came into their neighborhood,
01:25:54.000 knocked out. They went out there because there was an established precedent of BLM doing that.
01:25:58.000 that they knew what was up there like you guys are coming here to throw rocks through
01:26:02.000 It broke into their property.
01:26:03.000 Right, but what I'm saying is they knew to protect their property because there have been weeks and weeks and weeks of this movement going out and doing violence and damage and vandalizing property and things like that.
01:26:18.000 We know what a BLM attack is.
01:26:19.000 There was a reason why they had an instinct to go out and protect their property.
01:26:23.000 But what is a white supremacist attack?
01:26:24.000 What is it that came out from the ADL?
01:26:26.000 And I think it was it was I think they're 2019 like extremist report.
01:26:30.000 And the conclusion was white supremacist is the biggest threat to everything.
01:26:34.000 And they they were going through all these examples.
01:26:37.000 And it's really broad the terms they describe it in.
01:26:39.000 You know, anyone who has a white supremacist tattoo who's involved in a crime that was
01:26:43.000 considered a white supremacist attack.
01:26:45.000 One of these examples being a man who was involved in some prison gang that's like white
01:26:48.000 supremacist affiliated, who with his wife murdered his two year old child and like kept
01:26:54.000 the body in a freezer.
01:26:55.000 And they're like, that's a terrorist example.
01:26:57.000 That's example of terrorism.
01:26:58.000 Or they included the Parkland shooting, because I guess I can't remember his name now.
01:27:03.000 But he the shooter had, I guess, maybe drawn a swastika on something.
01:27:07.000 But even in the report, they're like, this shooter specifically said this was not racially
01:27:11.000 motivated and the police have never considered it a hate crime.
01:27:14.000 So they're inflating their own data, just to say it's real.
01:27:18.000 This is real.
01:27:19.000 We're the supremacist to defend your life How dare you?
01:27:19.000 Trust us.
01:27:22.000 It's crazy.
01:27:23.000 Or to have an American flag in the front of your house.
01:27:25.000 Or to do this.
01:27:28.000 That's why none of this means anything anymore and why I keep telling people don't be afraid of being called names for standing up for things that you know are logical.
01:27:34.000 That's the thing that I think has taken a really long time because I think this fear of being called racist kept a lot of conservative voices in submission throughout the early 2000s into 2010, whatever else.
01:27:44.000 And again, because Trump got called racist so much and people were like, I don't think that's the case.
01:27:51.000 I think that's wrong.
01:27:52.000 It started to sort of fall apart.
01:27:53.000 But I think there is that label.
01:27:55.000 I think that that fear of being labeled or being misunderstood within your community, you don't know what the social ramifications are, is enough to quell people from from speaking out.
01:28:03.000 He also wasn't defensive about it.
01:28:05.000 You know, he was called a racist for years and years and years and people watched as he just kind of like went on with his business and did the next thing, did the next thing.
01:28:12.000 People started to realize like, oh, maybe I don't have to care about that so much.
01:28:16.000 Yeah.
01:28:16.000 Maybe I don't have to sit around worrying.
01:28:17.000 Because his behavior was going to prove himself either way.
01:28:20.000 Look at his history.
01:28:21.000 He happens to be friends with lots of black people.
01:28:24.000 He also had a black president like the rest of us.
01:28:27.000 He was in every rap song that I rapped for years.
01:28:30.000 He was beloved by everyone.
01:28:32.000 He was made fun of because he was on a reality show and he looks goofy.
01:28:35.000 That show was awesome.
01:28:38.000 What did Obama say?
01:28:39.000 The American dream is to be Donald Trump.
01:28:41.000 Did he really say that?
01:28:42.000 Wait, who said that?
01:28:42.000 Obama said something like that.
01:28:44.000 So he endorsed Donald Trump.
01:28:45.000 Soft endorsement there.
01:28:46.000 Yeah, he should use that for a campaign.
01:28:47.000 Like, why is he not doing that?
01:28:49.000 Trump!
01:28:50.000 Come on!
01:28:52.000 We need this.
01:28:54.000 Is this a deepfake, Tim?
01:28:56.000 Reuters says it was a misquote.
01:28:58.000 Misquoted.
01:28:59.000 They're like, disavow, disavow that.
01:29:06.000 Oh, he said something like that.
01:29:08.000 He didn't write it was the American Dream.
01:29:10.000 He mentioned him, he said, Americans have a continuing normative commitment to the ideals of individual freedom and mobility, values that extend far beyond the issue of race in the American mind.
01:29:19.000 The depth of this commitment may be summarily dismissed as the unfounded optimism of the average American.
01:29:24.000 I may not be Donald Trump now, but just you wait.
01:29:27.000 If I don't make it, my children will.
01:29:29.000 So he admitted that everyone wants to grow up to be Donald Trump.
01:29:32.000 So it's a paraphrasing.
01:29:34.000 It's a paraphrasing of what Obama said.
01:29:36.000 So actually I think that quote is actually apt.
01:29:39.000 It's not a literal quote.
01:29:42.000 Obama expressed the idea that it is the American dream to be Donald Trump.
01:29:46.000 I gotta tell you, Barack Obama said he hopes his children grow up to be Donald Trump.
01:29:53.000 That's crazier.
01:29:54.000 Can we get that quote?
01:29:57.000 I'm having so much fun with the AI stuff now that I don't do it though, but I think someone should also create Barack Obama with Lil Pump's Trump tattoo and we should just plaster that.
01:30:06.000 This is gonna help.
01:30:07.000 See, I don't like that stuff.
01:30:08.000 That's the thing that bothers me about AI.
01:30:11.000 You know, it's funny to us in like the meme sense, but ultimately you don't know what someone's going to twist and put out to you and be like, this is real.
01:30:18.000 I feel like I'd rather just say everyone stop using it immediately.
01:30:21.000 It also bothers me because the more you engage with, the more it learns about you.
01:30:25.000 That is how I feel.
01:30:25.000 I do.
01:30:26.000 I actually despise AI.
01:30:27.000 I think it should burn.
01:30:28.000 I don't like it.
01:30:29.000 I've never actually used it, although it's been so much fun to do it through other people.
01:30:34.000 Thank you for whoever made that Taylor Swift tool thing.
01:30:36.000 But yeah, no, I think you should actually burn AI because it's going to take everyone's jobs eventually.
01:30:41.000 Well, yes, I hate it too, but the reason why I hate it is because now people can use it to draft emails and things like that.
01:30:49.000 So it's like when I'm hiring staffing positions and I'm getting these really nicely written emails, which is very important to me, I'm like, if you have bad grammar, if you're a bad writer, I'm like, I don't think this is going to work out.
01:31:00.000 That's like a big thing for me.
01:31:02.000 So then you're kind of fooled into believing this person has skills that they don't have, and then all of a sudden you hire them and you're just like, you're an idiot and you can't write.
01:31:10.000 How did this happen?
01:31:11.000 Facade.
01:31:12.000 Yeah.
01:31:12.000 And there's artists using it to make art, to do songs.
01:31:15.000 I genuinely think there'll be a future not too far away where your favorite artist, I wonder if you'll be able to differentiate their AI song from their own song, because they might shift to just having AI do it.
01:31:27.000 Or they're dead.
01:31:28.000 They've been gone a long time, and the record label's like, hey, we got this old Johnny Cash song.
01:31:32.000 Here it goes.
01:31:33.000 I don't like it at all.
01:31:35.000 We're well beyond that.
01:31:36.000 Yeah?
01:31:37.000 We are a year away from being like, whatever your AI's name is, Ian, play me a new song by Tool, and it will just auto-generate everything in their style, with their lyrical sense and presence and everything, and it'll just make a song.
01:31:53.000 That's crazy.
01:31:53.000 Would you be interested in listening to that song?
01:31:56.000 I don't know.
01:31:57.000 I mean, one important thing people need to understand is a big component of music is an attachment, an emotional attachment to nostalgia or to the past.
01:32:08.000 So, for instance, many of you may know a song you never actually cared for when it was on the radio, but you've grown to like.
01:32:14.000 It reminds you.
01:32:16.000 It connects you to those memories.
01:32:18.000 The kind of music you like obviously comes, it's inherited.
01:32:22.000 You get it from your parents.
01:32:24.000 This is why Like, they have different kinds of music around the world.
01:32:27.000 Because you grew up listening to music in your community, and then you're like, I like this, I like this feeling, I like the beat, I like the time signature, I like the instruments.
01:32:34.000 And, uh... If you were to play an AI new song, you might like the general style, but will you be attached to that song in any way?
01:32:45.000 Well, we wouldn't, but young people who don't have no past history with music or relationship with music.
01:32:52.000 Only if the song is distributed.
01:32:53.000 If you tell an AI to make the song, who's distributing that song to anyone but you?
01:32:57.000 This is something Post Malone told Joe Rogan about that really is weird to me.
01:33:01.000 And it weirded out Post Malone that people could make songs by him but personalized to them.
01:33:07.000 So then it wouldn't mean something but just to that person, right?
01:33:09.000 But it's him, it sounds like him, and he's singing their name.
01:33:12.000 Yeah, I reject all of that.
01:33:13.000 I don't like it at all.
01:33:14.000 So don't take any of my suggestions for AI.
01:33:15.000 Hannah Clare put me in my place.
01:33:17.000 You're right.
01:33:17.000 You just have to be on guard about AI always.
01:33:20.000 Art, video games, everything, it's over.
01:33:22.000 I know.
01:33:23.000 I was talking about Baldur's Gate 3 a moment ago.
01:33:26.000 We are only a few years away from full procedurally generated work.
01:33:33.000 There's not going to be a GTA 7 or 8.
01:33:36.000 It's gonna be GTAI.
01:33:37.000 And it's gonna be like, you're gonna download the game, you're gonna load it up, and it's gonna procedurally generate a unique game experience.
01:33:46.000 All the voice acting?
01:33:47.000 Automatic.
01:33:48.000 AI will just do it.
01:33:50.000 So we're talking about the gap between, uh, what are we coming up to?
01:33:53.000 Actually, it is GTA 7, isn't it?
01:33:54.000 I'm not sure.
01:33:55.000 What's the new one that's coming out?
01:33:56.000 Is it 7?
01:33:58.000 6.
01:33:58.000 Is it really?
01:33:59.000 Okay.
01:34:00.000 So then, whatever it is, there's not gonna be a next one.
01:34:02.000 The next one is, it took so many years to make this one, that by the time they're ready to make another one, or planning on even releasing one, it'll all be AI and procedurally generated.
01:34:13.000 You're gonna tell, you're gonna tell the, you're gonna boot it up and it's gonna be like, what kind of character do you want, and what kind of scenario do you want?
01:34:20.000 And you're gonna say, 1920s, mobsters, And give me, like, I don't know, Godfather kind of vibes.
01:34:28.000 And then it will just make you your own game, storyline and everything.
01:34:33.000 See, it makes me want to hold on to real life things even more than, like, it makes me want to go to a concert with, like, people who love an artist and stand in the crowd and hear that song.
01:34:41.000 Like, it makes me want to turn off the screen more because that's the only barrier AI really has.
01:34:47.000 Like, it is contained to what you plug yourself into.
01:34:49.000 It makes me want to, you know, buy tickets to do things.
01:34:53.000 For now.
01:34:53.000 That's the question I was just going to pose to everybody.
01:34:56.000 As technology advances, do you think it's possible that we'll actually come into an era of a renaissance of people who are like, I want to completely unplug from all of this technology.
01:35:05.000 I want to go back to a time where we talked to each other and I have to go to your house to see you.
01:35:11.000 I could see entire colonies forming where people are like, no phones.
01:35:15.000 I do that, and I think, you can probably talk about this more, but the first sign up for me was this movement, especially among younger and younger parents, and it's starting to happen among, like, mom influencers, where they don't want to put their kids' faces online.
01:35:27.000 For a long time, it was, I mean, especially when social media first started, it was like, oh, here's my adorable baby, and do whatever.
01:35:32.000 But more and more people are saying, from the get-go, I don't want my kids to have to have an online presence, I want them to be able to consent as adults.
01:35:39.000 It shifts the relationship, and people are more fearful of the internet.
01:35:43.000 I don't necessarily agree.
01:35:44.000 I agree somewhat.
01:35:47.000 We talked about this story treatment, I was talking about the members only, the last city and what happens when humans migrate underground and all that stuff.
01:35:55.000 Some people, a lot of people, but 95%, they're gonna plug it in two seconds.
01:36:00.000 Anything you want, you will be given.
01:36:04.000 There's literally no reason.
01:36:05.000 If the person says to themselves, man, I long for a world where we don't use these phones, we don't play these games.
01:36:11.000 And it was like the nineties, man.
01:36:14.000 Oh, well, where are you going to get that?
01:36:16.000 Are you going to go get it in your farm community and tell everyone not to use their phones?
01:36:18.000 No, you're going to plug in and you're going to tell the machine to give you to, and it will give you your world where you can interact with fake people.
01:36:25.000 And for all you know, you're in it right now.
01:36:27.000 It's funny because when I moved down to West Virginia, I was like, I kept telling everyone in New York, it's like the nineties here.
01:36:32.000 Third eye blinds on the radio every day. It's amazing.
01:36:35.000 Everything felt like the 90s and But but there's still them the secret
01:36:41.000 But there's pockets of the you know People who are obsessed with the internet everywhere and
01:36:45.000 the internet condensed the whole world into a little small time. I'm not convinced
01:36:49.000 I know you have to.
01:36:51.000 I think in 2020, look at how radically different people handled the shutdown.
01:36:54.000 There were so many people like, I love the shutdown.
01:36:57.000 I hate being around people.
01:36:58.000 I hate going outside.
01:36:59.000 It was like the greatest era of my life.
01:37:00.000 And then a lot of people got like chronic depression.
01:37:02.000 You know, I'm very much a social person.
01:37:05.000 For me, it was terrible.
01:37:06.000 I hated it.
01:37:07.000 And I think that if you're, I think it sounds very lonely.
01:37:10.000 I think a very technological future sounds incredibly lonely.
01:37:13.000 And I think for people who crave socialization, they're not going to be okay with this.
01:37:16.000 They do a lockdown in New York.
01:37:18.000 People are furious and upset, and they say, don't worry, plug in your neural implant, and you guys will be, you will experience hanging out in New York as if you're not in lockdown, and you won't know the difference.
01:37:28.000 And so there will not be depression and loneliness.
01:37:30.000 Not just- But there is a difference.
01:37:32.000 There's a difference, and some people, I think the overwhelming majority of people will not experience it.
01:37:37.000 Some people might be like, it's fake, I can't take it, I can't take it.
01:37:40.000 Right.
01:37:40.000 Most people are gonna be like, I can't take being locked in this box.
01:37:45.000 They'll plug in, The world around them flashes as their mind enters the digital metaverse.
01:37:52.000 And in this digital reality, they can still talk to their friends.
01:37:55.000 It is actually their friend that they go downstairs, they walk into the bar and they say, meet me there at seven.
01:38:01.000 They walk in, everything feels normal, feels the same.
01:38:03.000 They order a cheeseburger, tastes the same.
01:38:04.000 Everything is indistinguishable.
01:38:07.000 And then when they're done, they go, all right, man, I'll see you tomorrow.
01:38:09.000 And then disappear from the reality.
01:38:10.000 And they wake up back in their apartment, instantly back home with no Uber in the real world where they're locked down.
01:38:15.000 Well, I got Oculus Quest when I was on house arrest, and I can tell you it was not a substitute for going outside.
01:38:21.000 Yes, I'm talking about Neuralink.
01:38:23.000 I understand.
01:38:23.000 When they can actually read and write to your brain, and you can plug in and physically feel and interact with digital objects, that's gonna be a whole- that's a game changer.

01:39:29.000 Let's read Super Chats.
01:39:31.000 Chafed BM, great name by the way, says, First, remember the Alamo.
01:39:36.000 First Super Chat.
01:39:36.000 Right on.
01:39:37.000 Here we go.
01:39:38.000 Shane H. Wilder says, Submarine sandwiches are submarines by definition.
01:39:41.000 It's literally in the name.
01:39:43.000 Maybe that's what happened to that guy who went down to the depths of the ocean.
01:39:45.000 He was in a sandwich the whole time.
01:39:48.000 Alright.
01:39:48.000 BF says, Tim, have you tried to get Senator Mark Wayne Mullen on the show yet?
01:39:52.000 He's the one who tried to fight the union boss.
01:39:54.000 I know, that was hilarious.
01:39:55.000 And I think we may have reached out to him, but I don't know what happened.
01:39:58.000 Maybe.
01:39:59.000 I know that some people don't like him either.
01:40:03.000 The Trooper says, you need 50 doses of the vaccine to protect yourself from Bob.
01:40:09.000 From what?
01:40:10.000 From the Bob?
01:40:12.000 I just started.
01:40:13.000 I didn't read the sentence before I actually did the Fauci voice.
01:40:15.000 It's an exaggerated Fauci voice.
01:40:16.000 But if you didn't know, I am the voice of Dr. Fauci on Freedom Tunes.
01:40:20.000 It's actually in my IMDB credits.
01:40:23.000 So I voice a cartoon Dr. Fauci.
01:40:26.000 And it was really funny because he's like, as he was fading from the news, like my role on Freedom Tunes just dries up.
01:40:33.000 Seamus used to be like, I got a script for you today.
01:40:35.000 Like, please read this and just constantly give me scripts.
01:40:37.000 And he fired me.
01:40:40.000 Yeah, because Fauci is just not culturally relevant anymore.
01:40:40.000 He didn't let me go.
01:40:43.000 And I begged Seamus, I'm like, Seamus, I can do other voices, man.
01:40:46.000 Just let me audition.
01:40:47.000 And he's like, nah.
01:40:48.000 He's like, you get Fauci and that's it.
01:40:52.000 All right, here we go.
01:40:55.000 Aaron Oddy says never ask a man his income, a woman her age, and a Democrat what they will do to stop Donald Trump.
01:41:05.000 Tim Jakes says a busload of migrants arrived in Colorado Springs, El Paso County Sunday.
01:41:10.000 Yesterday, county commissioners said the Colorado Springs and El Paso County will not provide sanctuary to any kind of migrants.
01:41:16.000 Colorado Springs is a fairly right-wing area.
01:41:19.000 So I'm not surprised.
01:41:20.000 But if I was Eric Adams, and I gotta be honest, what I would actually do if I was the mayor of New York and these migrants are coming in, I would give a statement.
01:41:28.000 I'd be like, people of New York, I just want you all to know that I will do nothing in my power to deal with these illegal immigrants.
01:41:36.000 I will literally do nothing.
01:41:38.000 And I assume the problem will take care of itself.
01:41:40.000 Thank you and have a nice day.
01:41:42.000 For real, though.
01:41:43.000 The idea that he's gonna spend taxpayer money and facilitate the criminal immigration and the criminal aliens, give them hotel rooms and all that stuff, that's only making things worse.
01:41:53.000 The best bet is, you chose to come to a place with no resources and I guaranteed you nothing.
01:41:57.000 Have fun.
01:41:58.000 And what happens?
01:41:58.000 They leave.
01:42:00.000 That's it.
01:42:01.000 The locals won't tolerate it.
01:42:02.000 The police won't tolerate it.
01:42:03.000 No special treatment.
01:42:05.000 Cops treat them any other way.
01:42:07.000 Get them out.
01:42:08.000 That's it.
01:42:08.000 Go home.
01:42:11.000 All right, let's grab some more.
01:42:15.000 Free Men Die Free says, when you said Mr. Bocas wet himself, collapsed, and couldn't move, I forgot we were talking about Bocas and not Biden.
01:42:22.000 Well, he went, he's sleeping right now.
01:42:24.000 He decided to leave the table and he went and just, he's napping.
01:42:29.000 So he's still alive.
01:42:32.000 But it was, so what happened was, um, He's losing a lot of weight.
01:42:37.000 He's been on a special diet for a long time.
01:42:38.000 He's been getting a bunch of medical treatment.
01:42:40.000 He's got stem cells.
01:42:41.000 And we have artificially extended his life for over a year.
01:42:45.000 For those that don't know, Mr. Bocas is our cat.
01:42:47.000 And at some point, a year and a half ago, he started slowing down and we didn't think much of it until one day he passed out.
01:42:54.000 And it turns out that As a street cat, he has underdeveloped kidneys and a defect in his heart.
01:43:01.000 It's from the streets, and so there's nothing you can do.
01:43:03.000 When the kidneys start failing, it happens to a lot of cats.
01:43:05.000 Unfortunately for him, it happened when he was four.
01:43:07.000 He is now five.
01:43:08.000 So he's made it quite a ways, and we're happy that he did.
01:43:12.000 Today...
01:43:14.000 He was given a little harness so that he could finally go out and smell the beautiful flowers.
01:43:19.000 There's no flowers, but you know, it was 50-something degrees.
01:43:22.000 I think the excitement was too much for him.
01:43:25.000 Must have elevated his heart rate.
01:43:27.000 And then he just wet himself right there and then fell down and he couldn't get up and was just hyperventilating.
01:43:33.000 And so he was given space, given some water, and he got better.
01:43:36.000 And then when we came up here to do the show, he followed us up.
01:43:38.000 And so we absolutely loved Mr. Oh, he's awake.
01:43:42.000 He's hanging out.
01:43:42.000 He knew you were talking about him.
01:43:43.000 Yeah.
01:43:44.000 You know, he can jump up on the counter.
01:43:48.000 So that's like four feet, four and a half, you know, four feet or whatever.
01:43:51.000 He walks around, he seems to have no problems jumping up and down, but he's not running around, you know?
01:43:58.000 We got another cat named Seamus.
01:44:00.000 Now Seamus is a chunky boy.
01:44:02.000 You know, he's in a diet because he's chubby.
01:44:06.000 He was a wildcat.
01:44:07.000 We domesticated him over the past, I don't think domesticated him, but we like, yeah, I think it's the right word, over the past month.
01:44:13.000 And now he just, it's amazing because he's about one year old and he was living outside.
01:44:19.000 He was living in our garage.
01:44:20.000 So we did the whole Stockholm syndrome thing for him.
01:44:23.000 Now he just like lays on the couch with his arms up, like sprawled out, just like, this is paradise.
01:44:29.000 And he started, like, hanging around your house.
01:44:31.000 I think he was ultimately kind of testing you guys out.
01:44:33.000 He was like, maybe I'm supposed to be an indoor cat.
01:44:35.000 These are cat people.
01:44:38.000 Michael Pepper says, enjoy your show and great guest, and my kids have, I really like your music, but can you tell me when a country has changed with just words?
01:44:47.000 I don't know what that means.
01:44:49.000 Oh right, like when uh, is that what you mean?
01:44:58.000 So like when the left changes the definition of gender, so now gender and sex mean two different things, and what that does is it retroactively changes laws.
01:45:06.000 Because they're textualists, not originalists.
01:45:08.000 The law says a person cannot be discriminated on based on their gender, and they go, oh, but gender means your self-expression.
01:45:13.000 And the Supreme Court goes, that's correct.
01:45:16.000 Even though when the law was written, that's not what it meant.
01:45:18.000 That's how they change everything.
01:45:21.000 That being said, not the next song we're putting out, it's gonna be the end of February, but the next song after that, we're gonna make the same song in four different genres.
01:45:28.000 Sick.
01:45:29.000 And like, the goal is, same tempo, same vocal melody, but, instrumentation like I want everything to be as the same as possible but just different instruments and like you know just imagine if you replaced all the instruments in like a weekend song with like stomping on a stage and like a banjo or something that'd be cool so we want to do something like that where we write one song but in four different genres
01:45:58.000 And we're doing this because, Tom McDonald pointed out, I think it's like Nicki Minaj or Megan Thee Stallion, I can't remember which one, they released eight versions of the same song, that way when they go to their fans and say, if you want to help me win, buy all of them, and each, you can buy eight songs, and that counts as eight purchases of one song on the charts, it allows one person to buy the song eight times.
01:46:20.000 What's the difference?
01:46:20.000 Is it like remixes?
01:46:22.000 Vocal, instrumental, acapella, no bass, heavy distortion, like they, you can do whatever.
01:46:28.000 Sort of like people making music.
01:46:30.000 Yeah.
01:46:31.000 And also because of TikTok now, bands are releasing 2x speed, half time speed.
01:46:38.000 Yep.
01:46:39.000 It used to be like, if you, if you look at old records, you see like a different version, like radio edit version, beat mix version, all these different things.
01:46:45.000 That's what they're doing.
01:46:46.000 They're using it to count towards that final count that allows them to get onto billboard, etc, etc.
01:46:51.000 Oh, the loopholes.
01:46:52.000 Yep, indeed.
01:46:53.000 Yeah, I think the issue is because it this may be the worst time for Tom McDonald to release a song because Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion are beefing.
01:47:01.000 They're like trying to beat each other in the charts.
01:47:03.000 So any other release week, and they steamroll right through.
01:47:08.000 He's like an independent candidate.
01:47:10.000 He is the RFK of the rap game.
01:47:12.000 However, apparently, according to billboard, Uh, the three of them, Tom McDonald, Nick Minaj, and Megan Thee Stallion, are competing for number one.
01:47:20.000 Wow.
01:47:21.000 So, if everybody wants to see Ben Shapiro have the biggest song, and it's Tom McDonald, right?
01:47:26.000 Ben Shapiro's featured on it.
01:47:27.000 Shout out to Tom McDonald.
01:47:29.000 Uh, factsrap.com.
01:47:32.000 You can buy the song, but I actually, I gotta tell you this right now.
01:47:37.000 If you haven't bought the song on iTunes, I'm gonna, I'm gonna try and say this carefully and clearly.
01:47:42.000 If you have not purchased the song on iTunes, do that.
01:47:46.000 We didn't do a promo for it because I don't have a good way of linking iTunes.
01:47:51.000 It's difficult.
01:47:53.000 But if you go to iTunes, download it, sign up, whatever it is, or if you already have it, and you search for the song, Facts, F-A-C-T-S, by Tom MacDonald, featuring Ben Shapiro, buy it on iTunes.
01:48:03.000 I'm gonna say that one more time.
01:48:04.000 For anybody who has not purchased the song on iTunes, I can't say much more than that.
01:48:11.000 I can only say, I will not be surprised if it turns out, on Tuesday, some dirty games were played to stop Tom MacDonald from succeeding and being bigger.
01:48:21.000 Here's the important thing.
01:48:23.000 Okay guys, Tom MacDonald mentioned how these artists will put up multiple versions of the same song.
01:48:29.000 Their song then appears on the top of the charts.
01:48:31.000 The reason why this is so important, it's not because Ben's rapping, it's funny, but a lot of people are like, I don't care about Ben rapping.
01:48:35.000 No, it's because the satanic Music, demonic music, figuratively and literally, that they claim is the top of the charts, is not actually that popular.
01:48:45.000 They don't have fans, they can, they, that, that, like, they do not have enough fans to actually compete in this regard, unless they're pulling dirty tricks.
01:48:53.000 And when Tom McDonald makes a song saying, our music, like, quite literally, the song, the chorus is, we're not telling your kids to be thugs and your daughters to be hoes.
01:49:02.000 We're talking about important issues, and our music and our lyrics are good, and they're trying to keep that out.
01:49:07.000 The real issue is, the music industry wants to sow far-left, degenerate ideology to children, and they use dirty tricks to make it happen.
01:49:17.000 And when you get someone big and popular like Tom McDonald teaming up with Ben Shapiro, and they should be number one?
01:49:23.000 I can just say, don't be surprised if come Tuesday some dirty games were played.
01:49:27.000 I think the music industry takes advantage of the dead internet theory.
01:49:30.000 I remember looking at Katy Perry tweets, and if you go look at the comments, there's a ton of comments, but they were all fake.
01:49:36.000 Clearly fake, like regurgitated the same thing, sometimes in different languages, and I think they try to present this false fame.
01:49:43.000 This is how they prop up people like Biden.
01:49:46.000 I believe Max Keiser made a great point, and Stacey Herbert, that when they were in Europe in 2015-2016, all they heard was Trump sucks, everybody hates him, they can't believe he's running.
01:49:57.000 And they genuinely believed...
01:49:59.000 Wow, why is Trump even running?
01:50:00.000 He's not popular at all.
01:50:02.000 Then they landed in the United States, in North Carolina, and as soon as they got out and drove into the suburbs, they went, Trump's gonna win.
01:50:08.000 Because they saw Trump signs and nothing else.
01:50:10.000 Right.
01:50:11.000 The machine lies to you to make you believe Joe Biden and Democrats have popularity.
01:50:17.000 It's not true.
01:50:18.000 I'm willing to bet, even when you go to, like, D.C.
01:50:23.000 So, I mentioned, like, I go to D.C., like, MGM National Harbor.
01:50:26.000 Not just the casino.
01:50:26.000 I'm talking about the whole area with the ferris wheel.
01:50:28.000 It's a lot of fun.
01:50:29.000 You get dinner.
01:50:30.000 I'll meet someone who will get angry.
01:50:33.000 No, I don't like Donald Trump!
01:50:33.000 What do you mean?
01:50:35.000 I actually believe they do, and they're just scared of what it is to be outed in public for being a Trump supporter.
01:50:41.000 I'm in Chicago, and I've got a black shuttle bus driver, and as we're driving he just goes, so who are you voting for in November?
01:50:49.000 And I was like...
01:50:51.000 And I was like, well, it is tough right now.
01:50:53.000 And he goes, just say Trump.
01:50:55.000 And then I laughed and I was like, yeah, it's probably Donald Trump.
01:50:57.000 The reason I was going to say it's tough is because the primary right now, and I don't know if they're going to try and stop Donald Trump.
01:51:02.000 So it's a nuanced question, but oh, if you want a straight answer like that, dude, I'll vote for Trump.
01:51:06.000 You know, absolutely.
01:51:08.000 And he was like, yeah, I'm all for Trump, man.
01:51:10.000 And I'm like, glad, I'm glad you're not scared to say this was Chicago.
01:51:12.000 And I'm like, good.
01:51:14.000 But the media machine wants to lie to you to trick you.
01:51:17.000 And so that's the game being played right now.
01:51:20.000 Let's grab some more Super Chats!
01:51:22.000 Jacob Thompson says, Hey Tim, something that no one is taking into account is the corporations that will move to stop a civil war.
01:51:29.000 Specifically, the big tech.
01:51:30.000 Data centers are everywhere and a massive amount of capital is in danger during a civil war in the orders of billions.
01:51:36.000 I agree.
01:51:36.000 Understand this though.
01:51:38.000 Civil war is not a- I hereby declare.
01:51:41.000 The civil war, we say, started with Fort Sumter.
01:51:44.000 If it really was about states seceding, then it was well before Fort Sumter.
01:51:50.000 Before Abraham Lincoln even got inaugurated, several, I think what, seven states seceded from the union, and then four followed after Abraham Lincoln called up a mobilization to suppress the rebellion.
01:52:00.000 And even then, no one said civil war.
01:52:02.000 So sure, big tech might be like, we don't want this, but nobody snaps their fingers and declares it.
01:52:09.000 What happens?
01:52:10.000 Okay, Florida deploys a Florida state guard to Texas.
01:52:14.000 They're guarding the border.
01:52:15.000 Biden says enough is enough.
01:52:17.000 We're not here to destroy state property or fight with you, but we're gonna start processing migrants again, and we're gonna find another way to do it.
01:52:24.000 Florida State Guard says we're under orders to not allow you to do it.
01:52:28.000 Some shots are fired because of- Escalation happens.
01:52:32.000 It's the middle of the night.
01:52:33.000 People- Tensions are getting hot.
01:52:35.000 Border Patrol's screaming at these guys.
01:52:37.000 FBI- FPS shows up.
01:52:39.000 They're yelling at each other saying, back the F up now.
01:52:42.000 And some shots get exchanged somehow in the heat of it.
01:52:45.000 Nobody's injured.
01:52:47.000 Everyone would say, oh wow, that was crazy.
01:52:49.000 I can't believe that happened.
01:52:50.000 Following that, Joe Biden is furious and says, I am going to declare, I'm going to invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy U.S.
01:52:58.000 armed forces to go and shut this thing down.
01:53:00.000 Now I'm in charge.
01:53:03.000 Soldiers show up.
01:53:05.000 Florida, Texas, Nebraska, these other states say back the F up and then people think there's no way a civil war is going to break out.
01:53:12.000 Locals are watching saying this is crazy what's going on and then it does.
01:53:16.000 That was basically the first battle of Bull Run.
01:53:19.000 It wasn't like either side said we hereby declare.
01:53:23.000 Fighting started because it was a game of chicken.
01:53:25.000 So if something does kick off in this country, you're never going to see it coming.
01:53:29.000 The Americans in the Civil War did not think it was even happening when it was happening.
01:53:33.000 So we'll see.
01:53:36.000 Majin Sora says, if a civil war does spark, what side do you think the millions of migrants that have come here in the past few years illegally would join?
01:53:45.000 Uh, that's actually a tough question.
01:53:47.000 They may actually just fight wherever they are.
01:53:50.000 I know we've said, and many people speculate, that the Feds and Democrats will say, they don't want you here, fight for us and we'll give you citizenship.
01:53:57.000 But when it comes to, like, the people in Texas, yeah, Texas is gonna say the same thing.
01:54:01.000 They're gonna say, you live here, and they're attacking us.
01:54:05.000 And I think every state would just say, Join up!
01:54:09.000 It's also possible that, you know, especially if they're an enclave of immigrant communities, that they would be like, we're just going to defend our territory and we don't want anything to do with the rest of you, which is problematic in its own right.
01:54:20.000 Wow.
01:54:21.000 Because then you have, like, groups that are just like, I'm not out of here.
01:54:24.000 Right, right.
01:54:26.000 That's the thing about, like, loyalty to wherever you're going.
01:54:29.000 Here we go.
01:54:31.000 You want to join the community.
01:54:33.000 Jared Martinez says, OMG, we are living the Star Wars.
01:54:36.000 A long-term senator becomes the leader of the Galactic Republic and uses a bunch of cloned Mexicans to make an empire.
01:54:44.000 But they're not from Mexico.
01:54:44.000 These people are coming from all over the world.
01:54:48.000 Own Venezuelans.
01:54:50.000 Yep.
01:54:50.000 That's a huge thing people are getting wrong here.
01:54:51.000 It's not Mexicans.
01:54:52.000 It's not.
01:54:53.000 Just as people that are coming through Mexico doesn't mean they are Mexicans.
01:54:56.000 Very easy to mistake.
01:54:57.000 Brian Justice says, During the Civil War, the Union enlisted around half a
01:55:00.000 million immigrants to fight against the Confederate forces.
01:55:03.000 25% of the entire Union army were immigrants, while 18% were children of immigrants.
01:55:08.000 Yep.
01:55:10.000 Endel Wayfair says, IRL with Poso again.
01:55:14.000 Dunk on his Taylor Swift cringe.
01:55:16.000 Culture war.
01:55:17.000 Fight him.
01:55:18.000 Well, I'll just say this.
01:55:19.000 Not to just get into the whole Taylor Swift thing again.
01:55:24.000 It's ridiculous that anybody ever even brought up the stupid Psyop argument.
01:55:29.000 I will just leave it at, There are people who are in Congress.
01:55:35.000 In the Republican Party that you all know and love, who are freaking out that Benny, Jack, and others have pushed this narrative.
01:55:42.000 And the idea is typically, is generally, they're sabotaging their opportunity to get suburban white women by doing this.
01:55:50.000 These people want, the Republicans want to go to suburban white women and convince them, we are the appropriate choice for your kids.
01:55:58.000 Loudoun County is a great example.
01:56:00.000 These are, Loudoun County is a D.C.
01:56:02.000 suburb of people who are, like, Democrat-leaning and slightly moderate, and then when they saw what was going on in their schools, lost it and helped vote in a Republican governor.
01:56:14.000 Now, with the Taylor Swift psyop narrative, it is poisoning the well.
01:56:18.000 So when these Republicans go to areas like Loudoun and say, what they're doing to your kids is crazy, and they go, yeah, but you guys are screaming that Taylor Swift works for the Pentagon.
01:56:27.000 Like, I can't vote for you.
01:56:29.000 And so they're getting, they're like, stop, stop, stop!
01:56:32.000 We're trying to win these people over.
01:56:34.000 Nobody's trying to win over hardcore libs in New York City.
01:56:36.000 They're trying to win over, like, 30-year-old women who are in the suburbs who aren't very political but are concerned about what's happening with their 5-year-old kids going to school and they're like, what's going on?
01:56:45.000 So, anyway.
01:56:47.000 Moving on.
01:56:48.000 That's something I'm worried about with like, and I think Michael Rapoport is an idiot, but like, I don't think we should say that, and I'm going to say this, I don't think we should push him away if he's going to be saying, I want to vote for Trump.
01:56:57.000 Yeah, we need these people's votes to overwhelm the system.
01:57:00.000 And, you know, I didn't think that day would come with Rapoport.
01:57:03.000 Gandalf, Gandalf the Beast says, Tim, in new and old canon, Palpatine created the clone army and manipulated the Republic to use it, then tossed the clones to the side after the war and replaced them for stormtroopers.
01:57:16.000 Dems will toss when done.
01:57:18.000 I mean, there you go.
01:57:19.000 Right?
01:57:22.000 Let's grab some more.
01:57:23.000 We will scroll down.
01:57:24.000 Where are we at?
01:57:28.000 Lavoie?
01:57:28.000 Lavoie?
01:57:29.000 Simulation theory proves the Bible is true.
01:57:31.000 If there was a beginning, then there will be an end.
01:57:33.000 God will prove himself.
01:57:35.000 I mean, honestly, I do love simulism.
01:57:37.000 Because you get these, like, secular tech bros who are like, it is entirely possible that we're living in a simulation.
01:57:43.000 And then my response is, so you're saying that, like, a more powerful entity than us created our universe?
01:57:48.000 And you see where we're going with this?
01:57:51.000 And then, you know, you got to understand, if they really do believe we're in a simulation, then it's entirely possible the Earth is only 5,000 years old.
01:57:58.000 It is entirely possible that dinosaur bones were put there by God as artifacts to be discovered.
01:58:05.000 It's, you know, I describe it like when you play GTA and you're going around Liberty City and there's a skyscraper.
01:58:10.000 You know nobody in Liberty City in the video game actually built the skyscraper.
01:58:14.000 It was programmed to exist.
01:58:16.000 That could be how reality works, too.
01:58:18.000 If you believe in simulation theory, the Bible's not far-fetched.
01:58:21.000 They start converting Tech Bros by being like, he is the programmer of the heavens.
01:58:25.000 Well, for real though, like, because Seamus and I have talked about this, when I've talked to people about simulation theory, I'm like, my friend, I gotta stop you there.
01:58:34.000 I recommend you go to some theologians, Christian philosophers and scholars, and Jewish, and even Muslim, and Buddhists, because the questions you are asking about simulation theory are like Theology 101.
01:58:48.000 Did someone create us and create everything we are in?
01:58:51.000 What is the nature of reality?
01:58:53.000 What is our purpose?
01:58:55.000 If you're asserting the most rudimentary thing that a more advanced species programmed this thing, yeah, you're basically saying that there's a god.
01:59:03.000 I'm not saying there's a single Abrahamic god, because in this, it would be arguably a pantheon.
01:59:09.000 Like, if I programmed a video game with a bunch of people in it, they would refer to me as their god and their creator, but I'm like, yeah, but you know, Shane's over here too, and... I recommend watching a movie, I think it's called, like, The Nines, with Ryan Reynolds and Megan McCarthy.
01:59:22.000 Yeah, I don't want to spoil the movie for you, though, but it follows this general premise, so I recommend it.
01:59:27.000 It's a weird movie, but, you know, check it out.
01:59:30.000 Sensei says, okay, Tim, hear me out.
01:59:31.000 If you run for office in the USA and you swear your oath to the Constitution, we take tour ring finger, your ring finger, on your left hand to prove your worth.
01:59:42.000 What does that mean?
01:59:43.000 What?
01:59:44.000 No idea.
01:59:46.000 I'm just saying I would never be in office, and if I was, I'd get impeached right away.
01:59:52.000 I'd just be like, dude, I'm not playing political games.
01:59:55.000 If bad thing happens, bad thing gets shut down.
01:59:57.000 Or you wouldn't get impeached based on the current pace of impeachments in the US government.
02:00:01.000 Fair point.
02:00:03.000 All right, we'll grab one more.
02:00:05.000 Veritas Lux says, AI is inevitable.
02:00:10.000 Fearing it does nothing.
02:00:12.000 I am sure there are plenty of people cursing video streaming and podcasts.
02:00:17.000 Understand it, learn it.
02:00:19.000 Position yourself to understand how to use it.
02:00:22.000 We talk all day about how social media is making people depressed and suicidal and destroying the fabric of society and creating postmodernists, so yeah, AI will be bad.
02:00:29.000 But my friends, if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show if you really do like it, tell your friends about it, that's the best way to help.
