Summary

On today's show, we talk about a man who wants to kill Donald Trump, a cop who photoshopped Alex Preddy's face to make him look hot, and a guy who says he'll kill Trump if he's elected president.


Transcript

00:02:27.000 So this guy's running for AG in Ohio.
00:02:29.000 He was a former state rep, and it looks like he's not doing too well.
00:02:32.000 Well, he's got a new campaign promise.
00:02:34.000 He's vowing to kill Donald Trump.
00:02:36.000 Not exaggerating.
00:02:38.000 He's saying that as AG, he will sentence Trump to death formally through the state, which is still just him campaigning on killing Trump.
00:02:48.000 So I don't know what his point was.
00:02:49.000 But he's certainly getting attention for it.
00:02:51.000 So congratulations.
00:02:52.000 In this hyper-internet reality, everyone so desperate for attention will say or do anything.
00:02:58.000 He may as well have just said, please, for the love of all that is holy, look at my face.
00:03:03.000 Because it worked.
00:03:04.000 And we're talking about him and his pictures everywhere.
00:03:07.000 And then we've got probably one of the saddest stories.
00:03:09.000 Now, I know a lot of you are deeply upset over the killing of Alex Preddy in Minnesota.
00:03:15.000 It's a sad story, nonetheless, but I'm sure a lot of conservatives say, well, you know, don't bring a gun to a cop fight.
00:03:22.000 It appears that MS now is running a photoshopped version of this guy to make him look hot.
00:03:28.000 Or at least hot Er.
00:03:30.000 This is not a joke.
00:03:31.000 They took an old photo of him, face-tuned it, gave him some muscle, widened his jaw, gave him a little bit of a tan, some buy.
00:03:39.000 This is absolutely insane.
00:03:40.000 And you know, I know it's deeply political, and we're analytical when we look at these circumstances, but I genuinely feel bad for this guy's legacy with how they're treating him by basically saying he was so ugly that we have to photoshop his face and put it on TV because they don't want people to see what he actually looked like.
00:03:59.000 Yowza.
00:04:00.000 Man, okay.
00:04:01.000 Well, we're going to talk about that.
00:04:03.000 There's a bunch of other news.
00:04:05.000 Right now, the question is: did Trump concede?
00:04:08.000 And the funny thing is, liberal activists think Tim Waltz conceded, and many conservatives think Trump conceded, but Trump's diehard base thinks he won.
00:04:15.000 He's not backing down.
00:04:16.000 They're saying he's just restrategizing.
00:04:19.000 Well, Tim Waltz called Trump and said they were going to work together.
00:04:22.000 So leftists stormed his office, furious saying no surrender, which, okay.
00:04:27.000 We'll talk about all that.
00:04:29.000 Before we do, my friends, we had a great sponsor for you guys.
00:04:31.000 It is CrowdHealth.
00:04:33.000 Go to joincrowdhealth.com and check it out, my friends.
00:04:39.000 CrowdHealth is, it's not insurance.
00:04:42.000 It is the crowd coming together to help pay for everybody's medical bills.
00:04:45.000 Right now, it's open enrollment.
00:04:47.000 Season where health insurance companies hope you'll blindly sign up again for overpriced premiums and confusing fine print.
00:04:52.000 Don't just take someone else's word.
00:04:54.000 Trust yourself, take control of your future with CrowdHealth, the healthcare alternative for people who make their own decisions.
00:05:00.000 It's a healthcare fund or $100.
00:05:01.000 You'll get access to a team of health bill negotiators, low-cost prescription, and lab testing tools, as well as a database of low-cost, high-quality doctors vetted by CrowdHealth.
00:05:08.000 And what if something major happens?
00:05:10.000 You pay the first 500 bucks, then the crowd steps in to help fund the rest.
00:05:14.000 It feels like the options we used to have before Obamacare messed everything up.
00:05:17.000 And of course, you'll join the crowd, a group of members just like you want to help pay for each other's unexpected medical events.
00:05:23.000 The system is betting you'll stay stuck in the same overpriced, over-complicated mess.
00:05:27.000 And this year, it's even more complicated because most of the ACA subsidies expire, which means your prices are going sky high.
00:05:33.000 So far, CrowdHealth members have saved over $40 million in healthcare expenses because they refuse to overpay.
00:05:39.000 This open enrollment, take your power back, join CrowdHealth to get started for $99 for your first three months using code TIM at joincrowdhealth.com.
00:05:47.000 That's joincrowdhealth.com.
00:05:50.000 Crowdhealth is not insurance.
00:05:51.000 Opt out, take your power back.
00:05:52.000 It's how we win at joincrowdhealth.com.

00:06:02.000 Appalachia Knights, everybody's favorite.
00:06:05.000 Of course, Ian's graphene dream is low acidity.
00:06:08.000 Low acidity.
00:06:09.000 This dude, I think, Ian, you sold like 500 bags the past week when we did a promo for him.
00:06:13.000 Everybody loves the low acidity coffee because we hear from a lot of people, they'll drink coffee and it'll give them an upset stomach.
00:06:13.000 That's a good one.
00:06:20.000 Don't worry, we got coffee pods.
00:06:22.000 We do, in fact, have decaf coffee as well.
00:06:26.000 Maybe you don't want to stay awake.
00:06:27.000 Maybe you want some Sleepy Joe or some unwoke.
00:06:31.000 It's all available at Casbrew.com.
00:06:32.000 We've got a blend of different flavors.

00:06:52.000 Joining us tonight to talk about this and so much more.
00:06:54.000 We've got Tony Ortiz.
00:06:55.000 Thanks for having me.
00:06:56.000 Who are you?
00:06:56.000 What do you do?
00:06:57.000 I run Current Revolt.
00:06:58.000 We are a Texas-based newsletter.
00:07:01.000 We cover everything going on in Texas News.
00:07:03.000 So if you're a right-winger and you live in Texas, we are a must-subscribe.
00:07:07.000 There are probably less than four right-wing rags in the state of Texas, and we're one of them, which is surprising because Texas is a red state.
00:07:16.000 Yeah, one of the big stories we have is the redistricting map forecast.
00:07:20.000 Texas is going to gain four seats.
00:07:21.000 California is going to lose four.
00:07:23.000 And it's really interesting when you look at this map because you can see where everybody fled and where they went.
00:07:27.000 So it'll be interesting.
00:07:28.000 But thanks for hanging out.
00:07:30.000 It should be fun.
00:07:31.000 Ian's excited.
00:07:32.000 I am.
00:07:32.000 It's a pleasure to be here as well, Tim.
00:07:34.000 Thank you for talking about the graphene dream on the top of the show.
00:07:36.000 Tim and I have a little ongoing wager, not really, but in the background about what coffee is the best at Casbrew.
00:07:43.000 I think it's Graphene Dream.
00:07:44.000 He says it's Appalachian Knights.
00:07:46.000 You've got to try both.
00:07:47.000 Let me know what you think.
00:07:48.000 Put it in the chat.
00:07:49.000 Put it in the chat.
00:07:50.000 Well, there was a surge of graphene dream, but it's never outsold Appalachian Knights.
00:07:50.000 Just a little bit.
00:07:54.000 It is.
00:07:54.000 It's tough.
00:07:55.000 And the Appalachian Knights was made by me, and we didn't think it was going to be that big.
00:08:00.000 It was just like, I made it because I liked it.
00:08:02.000 The branding is stunning.
00:08:03.000 The tip of graphene dream is I'm trying to separate myself from the ego because my ego's like, I want it to be the best.
00:08:09.000 Yeah, you're just glowing and flying on the bag.
00:08:10.000 Yeah, how badass.
00:08:11.000 And it's, but I truly believe it's the best.
00:08:14.000 I think.
00:08:14.000 Well, I mean, the low acidity really got people, and we were surprised.
00:08:17.000 Like, people were like, my stomach doesn't hurt.
00:08:21.000 So, in addition to going to graphene.movie and checking out my documentary, go to caspurgu.com, get some Appalachian Knights and some graphene dream.
00:08:28.000 Libby Emmons is in the house.
00:08:29.000 Lemmy.
00:08:29.000 Lenny?
00:08:30.000 Talk to me.
00:08:30.000 Lemmy?
00:08:32.000 Limit something Irish with all the green.
00:08:34.000 Don't let's do a new nickname for me.
00:08:35.000 I'm Libby Emmons.
00:08:36.000 I'm the editor-in-chief of the Postmillennial and Human Events.
00:08:39.000 And just recently, the Pod Millennial.
00:08:41.000 We're really excited to launch this first podcast with me as the host.
00:08:46.000 Our first episode is with Michael Knowles, and you can check it out.
00:08:51.000 It's live now on YouTube, Rumble, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.
00:08:55.000 And you can check it out at thepodmillennial.com.
00:08:59.000 Hello, everybody.
00:09:00.000 My name is Phil Labonte.
00:09:01.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band, All That Remains.
00:09:03.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.
00:09:04.000 Let's get into it.
00:09:05.000 Here's a story from our favorite news outlet, The Times of India.
00:09:10.000 Because the funny thing is, a lot of these big stories that generate a lot of attention, the corporate press overlooks.
00:09:16.000 And websites like this have begun to pick these things up because people are looking for context.
00:09:21.000 But it's a big story.
00:09:22.000 Did Ohio AG Kennedy claims to claim call to kill Trump?
00:09:28.000 This is very poor.
00:09:29.000 It's written by India, so what do you expect?
00:09:31.000 I will say we did a better job on this one at the post-millennial.
00:09:31.000 But it's true.
00:09:34.000 Oh, you do.
00:09:34.000 You guys do have it.
00:09:36.000 Okay, we'll get yours instead.
00:09:36.000 But we do have the post from Libs of TikTok, and then we'll pull yours up.
00:09:39.000 Breaking Elliot Forhan, Democratic candidate for Ohio Attorney General, says he's going to kill President Trump through capital punishment.
00:09:47.000 Now, this guy previously served in the House of Representatives in Ohio during the 23-24 term.
00:09:55.000 He represented the 21st District.
00:09:57.000 Apparently, he lost the primary for this time around.
00:10:00.000 And I'd assume this is just desperation.
00:10:03.000 He's got a lot of controversies, though.
00:10:05.000 He said F Charlie Kirk after Charlie was killed.
00:10:08.000 And yeah, they say the Wikipedia says he's the son of two women whose wedding he officiated after Obergefell v. Hodges' Supreme Court decision.
00:10:17.000 Interesting.
00:10:18.000 Look at that.
00:10:19.000 Before he actually, in 2022, he won 73% to 26.
00:10:23.000 Well, here's what he has to say about his campaign.
00:10:27.000 Hi.
00:10:28.000 This is Elliot Forhan, candidate for Ohio Attorney General.
00:10:32.000 I want to tell you what I mean when I say that I am going to kill Donald Trump.
00:10:39.000 I mean, I'm going to obtain a conviction rendered by a jury of his peers at a standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt based on evidence presented at a trial conducted in accordance with the requirements of due process, resulting in a sentence duly executed of capital punishment.
00:11:01.000 That is what I mean when I say that I'm going to kill Donald Trump.
00:11:07.000 Okay, no, you can't do all that stuff, brother.
00:11:09.000 You can maybe get charges put against this guy.
00:11:11.000 That's all you can do.
00:11:12.000 Now, what did he say he's going to – can you play that first part of that again?
00:11:16.000 Beyond a reasonable doubt.
00:11:18.000 Based on evidence.
00:11:20.000 Presented at a trial.
00:11:21.000 Not before that, Dr. He says he's going to put him on trial or whatever.
00:11:24.000 This guy.
00:11:25.000 To kill Donald Trump.
00:11:27.000 I mean, I'm going to obtain a conviction.
00:11:30.000 Rendered a conviction of his own.
00:11:30.000 How is he going to be able to do that?
00:11:32.000 You've handed it off the judges or telling you that he's going to based on evidence.
00:11:37.000 He's going to do some obtain a conviction.
00:11:40.000 He doesn't even tell you what the charges are.
00:11:42.000 He doesn't say anything.
00:11:43.000 They don't need any.
00:11:43.000 Show me the man.
00:11:44.000 Well, yeah.
00:11:44.000 I'll show you the crime.
00:11:45.000 That's why I'm saying this distinction of I'll get a conviction is a completely meaningless distinction.
00:11:51.000 They know exactly what the point is.
00:11:53.000 Well, he's running for office.
00:11:54.000 He's going to say the most retarded things he could.
00:11:56.000 I like how he's using the boomerang and he's got the face, the lightning filter to make himself look a little lighter.
00:12:02.000 It's not the post-mortem glow-up that Pretty got, but you know.
00:12:08.000 He's mirroring Tish James, who ran on going after Trump, and so did what's his name?
00:12:14.000 Alvin Bragg ran on going after Trump.
00:12:16.000 Didn't Gretchen Whitmer say that?
00:12:18.000 And Gavin Newsom raised like, what, $50 million to go after Trump?
00:12:23.000 I mean, they're all upping the bar like it was maybe deport Trump and now it's killing him.
00:12:28.000 It's just, I love this post where it was like, Donald Trump can storm into Venezuela and capture their president, but he can't arrest one journalist, you know, who stormed a church in Minnesota.
00:12:39.000 He has more control over foreign countries than he does his own nation.
00:12:44.000 Yeah.
00:12:45.000 Yeah.
00:12:46.000 And I love the guys.
00:12:48.000 I'm just going to call it coping and seething.
00:12:50.000 Like, they're withdrawing the criminal complaint against Don Lemon because it's actually part of their plan.
00:12:56.000 It's like, uh-huh.
00:12:57.000 No, they wanted him arrested and they couldn't do it.
00:12:59.000 Yeah, Trump's withdrawing Bovino, and there's rumors that Christy Noam is going to get fired or reassigned.
00:13:05.000 And he's basically not firing, but you're doing the administrative, like, shove him in the corner.
00:13:10.000 And they're like, no, that's actually Trump winning.
00:13:12.000 It's like the reason you see these suburb cops arresting a bunch of these protesters.
00:13:18.000 And these people are like, yeah, but now, you know, Tim Waltz bent the knee.
00:13:22.000 The police have come in.
00:13:24.000 No, no, I'll tell you what happened.
00:13:25.000 Trump agreed to pull out Bovino because he screwed everything up.
00:13:28.000 His messaging was bad, and Noam's messaging was bad.
00:13:31.000 And the reason why the cops came and pushed the protesters out was because in exchange for Trump's retreat, they offered him safe passage.
00:13:37.000 That's it.
00:13:39.000 Wouldn't a video like this get you killed in CCP China?
00:13:42.000 Oh, you just disappeared.
00:13:43.000 Oh, yeah, you wouldn't.
00:13:43.000 I mean, I'm pretty sure the left loves China.
00:13:46.000 This shows China.
00:13:48.000 This right here is direct evidence that Donald Trump is nothing that the left says he is.
00:13:52.000 If he was anything like the left says he is, this guy'd be in jail just because he'd send his gestapo down there to pick him up and just toss him in a hole.
00:14:01.000 That's what he said.
00:14:01.000 He would have stocked.
00:14:02.000 Yeah.
00:14:04.000 But what is real is we don't live in a Nazi fascist blah, blah, blah.
00:14:11.000 We live in a country where retards like this can say this kind of stuff.
00:14:14.000 And my eyes roll so hard that they almost fall out of my head.
00:14:17.000 You can see that with what's going on in like Iran and other places.
00:14:21.000 And you can see directly that we have an inordinate amount of freedom.
00:14:25.000 And all of our rights are protected and defended for the most part.
00:14:29.000 The left isn't shared to Iran anyway.
00:14:31.000 The left is clownishly ridiculous.
00:14:35.000 I can't take anything they say seriously, whether it be arguments on Twitter or these self-aggrandizing BS TikTok posts they put up.
00:14:46.000 It's just so exhausting.
00:14:48.000 It's just like, I'll just roll my eyes and be like, you're just so gay.
00:14:51.000 Did this guy say just flat out, like post a tweet where he said, I'm going to kill underline?
00:14:57.000 And he just said it with no context.
00:14:58.000 And now he's like, no, I think this was the only thing he said.
00:15:01.000 Oh.
00:15:01.000 Yeah.
00:15:02.000 The other thing, too, I mean, we saw Jay Jones just won in Virginia, even though he said he wanted to see the children of Republican colleagues killed.
00:15:11.000 You know, I mean, this is what they keep electing on purpose.
00:15:14.000 So maybe this guy wins.
00:15:16.000 I got to add real quick just for the chat because I'm seeing a bunch of conflicting comments and I'm curious.
00:15:22.000 So it's split between Bovino was doing a great job.
00:15:26.000 Okay.
00:15:26.000 Then why did Trump pull him out?
00:15:28.000 If he was doing a great job, Trump pulled him out because Trump wants to change course or what's the issue.
00:15:34.000 Others are saying Trump is strategically retreating.
00:15:38.000 It's not a defeat.
00:15:40.000 Trump sent in Bovino.
00:15:41.000 Christy Noam was the boss.
00:15:43.000 Trump is pulling them out.
00:15:45.000 And I call it cope, right?
00:15:47.000 That's fine.
00:15:49.000 I said yesterday, strategic retreat, I said it this morning, is not defeat.
00:15:52.000 Sometimes you have to do it.
00:15:53.000 it and I'll give him credit for that.
00:15:54.000 I think he realized Bofino was causing damage and the Stephen Miller message of this guy was going to massacre people failed miserably and made them all look bad.
00:16:02.000 Now he's sending in Tom Homan.
00:16:04.000 But anyway, you cut it.
00:16:07.000 Trump decided the current leadership team wasn't working.
00:16:09.000 He's pulling them out.
00:16:10.000 That's it.
00:16:11.000 If you wargame past conflicts and battles, especially, you'll see some, you know, often actually, like throughout history, where the winning side will lose battles.
00:16:23.000 You know, if you want to consider this like a culture, warrior, culture, war thing, like sometimes you flank and you send in and you attack the front and your guys just get it.
00:16:23.000 Pretty blatantly.
00:16:32.000 I would love and you basically have no choice but to retreat.
00:16:35.000 I would love to see the Trump administration send ICE into cities or neighborhoods where they're welcome, like right-wing cities to round up the illegal city.
00:16:43.000 They do.
00:16:43.000 They do.
00:16:46.000 I would love to see like some pro-Trump propaganda where you're showing the city people welcoming ICE there and like, you know, celebrating them, giving them free food and stuff.
00:16:56.000 I don't know if that's happening.
00:16:57.000 I think it could.
00:16:58.000 I think if you took ICE and had them do operations in like right-wing cities, you would see the general population be like, oh, we're glad you guys are here.
00:17:05.000 Like, here's a free coffee.
00:17:06.000 Here's a free meal.
00:17:07.000 I got a question for everybody.
00:17:11.000 When protesters were upset over masks during COVID, these were not overtly right-wing people or anything.
00:17:17.000 It was just presumably like, hey, we don't want to.
00:17:19.000 Oh, no, no, no.
00:17:20.000 You know, a better example is the vaccine mandate protests.
00:17:23.000 Antifa showed up and started mercilessly beating these people outside of a hospital.
00:17:27.000 Story went super viral.
00:17:29.000 How come we never see any conservatives forming vigilante or paramilitary groups to go and support the government operations of the Republican Party?
00:17:39.000 Yeah, there's always this messaging by the left that the right has all these LARPing militia groups, but they never do anything.
00:17:47.000 They don't exist.
00:17:47.000 They're not real.
00:17:48.000 And if they do, they're really small and they show up in U-Hauls and they just exist.
00:17:53.000 They don't actually perform any operations.
00:17:56.000 But they don't exist.
00:17:57.000 I mean, when the left comes out and protests, you don't have paramilitary, right-wing groups going, just beating people outside of a grocery store, protesting plastic bags.
00:18:06.000 Yeah, you're not seeing right-wing groups burning down like Indian grocery stores.
00:18:09.000 Yeah, but I mean, like, more to the point of if a bunch of leftists show up to protest meat, there's never a right-wing pro-Republican group that shows up and says, leave Cargill alone and bashes them with sticks the way Antifa does when people on the right protest Democrat policy positions.
00:18:24.000 I think it just further demonstrates that like the left is very like emotional.
00:18:27.000 Like they don't have any kind of ability to control their emotions.
00:18:30.000 They get violent easier, right?
00:18:31.000 That's what I'm saying.
00:18:32.000 They're organized.
00:18:34.000 You don't randomly just show up and beat people at a protest.
00:18:37.000 You know the protest is happening.
00:18:38.000 You have legal apparatus to protect you in the event you get arrested.
00:18:40.000 They've got the same clothes.
00:18:42.000 They've got tools, shields, weapons.
00:18:44.000 The left is completely organized on every front.
00:18:46.000 And the Democrats actually have a paramilitary wing and the right has nothing.
00:18:50.000 I mean, you've been to a lot of these protests on the field.
00:18:53.000 And what I've seen too, covering, especially the anti-ICE protests in Dallas, is like you will have these organized groups that will call together a protest.
00:19:02.000 And then these people, they all show up.
00:19:04.000 And then you'll have like five or six, depending on the size, people in these vests.
00:19:09.000 And they're the organizers, right?
00:19:10.000 They're telling them what to do.
00:19:11.000 They've got the loudspeakers, hey, we need to back off or hey, we're pushing forward.
00:19:14.000 So to your point, yeah, you do have some sort of organization there.
00:19:18.000 And you don't really see that in the right.
00:19:19.000 Like I very rarely see right-wing big protests, but you don't have people deleting them.
00:19:25.000 But it's not about against it.
00:19:26.000 It's not about protests.
00:19:27.000 It's about, let's say a bunch of liberals show up to a grocery store saying meat is murder.
00:19:32.000 There's no such thing as a right-wing organized group that shows up to beat them.
00:19:36.000 But there are when right-wing groups protest things like taxation or gun control, left-wing groups show up and beat them.
00:19:43.000 There are organized leftist groups that align with Democrat policy to beat anyone on the right if they show up in the street to protest.
00:19:50.000 Well, there's a lot of this stuff, right?
00:19:51.000 I mean, there's Rise and Resist.
00:19:53.000 There was the women's march last night.
00:19:54.000 We had a reporter go into one of the women's march virtual trainings, and they were talking about how in Minneapolis and St. Paul, hotel workers will call in the activists to do what they call wake-ups, and then all the activists show up outside the hotel to like bang on their drums and bottles and cans and whatever else they're doing and cause a little mess.
00:20:16.000 That's what I think is funny.
00:20:17.000 I don't understand why conservatives think they would ever win a civil war when they have no fighters, no communications, no organization whatsoever.
00:20:25.000 By all means, you can point out there are small militias that don't do anything and they exist like we know there's a group of guys in the South somewhere.
00:20:33.000 I think part of that is that the right has more to lose, right?
00:20:36.000 Like the people on our side, they have families.
00:20:38.000 They're married.
00:20:39.000 They have businesses.
00:20:40.000 They're business owners.
00:20:41.000 They own companies.
00:20:42.000 They have more to lose.
00:20:43.000 Where like if you're a leftist, like you're a blue-haired Starbucks worker who's single and you're on like 50 mental medications.
00:20:50.000 I throw your life away.
00:20:51.000 But how does that play into the fact that you could have a family and have a communication grid?
00:20:55.000 Yeah, you're right, but like you're less willing to perform these acts because you're like, well, I don't want to put myself in harm's way because I have five people to have a group chat.
00:21:05.000 To do what?
00:21:06.000 To chat about, to LARP about we're going to do something one day?
00:21:09.000 No.
00:21:10.000 The left has organized insurgent networks.
00:21:12.000 They're on standby.
00:21:14.000 The right doesn't even have, the right doesn't even have mutual aid groups the way the left does.
00:21:18.000 Meaning the left could are literally in group chips being like, bring food to this place.
00:21:22.000 And the right doesn't have this stuff.
00:21:24.000 They have small communities.
00:21:25.000 But again, the point is, if there were to be any kind of civil war breakdown, all of these conservatives say things like, haha, look how dumb and fat they are.
00:21:33.000 And I'm like, bro, you'd be routed in two seconds.
00:21:36.000 You have no communications.
00:21:37.000 By all means, get guns in your basement.
00:21:39.000 But what do you do when seven leftists are surrounding your house with guns too?
00:21:42.000 We used to have that with like churches, right?
00:21:43.000 The churches used to come together.
00:21:44.000 They're not networked with each other.
00:21:46.000 The churches aren't necessarily networked with each other.
00:21:46.000 Right.
00:21:48.000 I think what conservatives rely on is that the military would be on the side of law and order.
00:21:53.000 And we saw with Trump's arrest.
00:21:54.000 And I don't think that they're on the side of law and order.
00:21:56.000 We did see that in COVID.
00:21:57.000 But it would have to be.
00:21:58.000 That's why I'm like, conservatives are going to get to the right.
00:22:00.000 The military was like the police.
00:22:01.000 They were arresting people.
00:22:02.000 We had that in Texas.
00:22:03.000 They literally arrested one of our state reps, Shelly Luther.
00:22:06.000 She went to jail because she wouldn't shut down her hair salon.
00:22:09.000 Right, right.
00:22:10.000 Now she's a state rep. But our right-wing governor sent her to jail.
00:22:14.000 For obstructing ICE.
00:22:16.000 So if it ever came down to it, conservatives are just fractured, disparate, no communications.
00:22:22.000 They got guns.
00:22:23.000 Give them that.
00:22:24.000 So it'll be slow to conquer them.
00:22:26.000 But communications, it's the most important thing.
00:22:29.000 The reason why in the battlefields they played trumpets and bang drums was to signal the troops what to do.
00:22:33.000 If you couldn't send the information, you couldn't win.
00:22:36.000 And when you look at what's going on in Minnesota with this massive signal group that they keep rebuilding, and you know they operate in other states as well, you can see that if it all went tits up tomorrow, conservatives would be holding an empty bag saying, what do we do?
00:22:48.000 And the left would be like, take these streets, take these bridges, take these depots.
00:22:53.000 In 2006, I personally decided that my protest is going to be online.
00:22:58.000 I'm not going to go stand on a street corner and get rocks thrown at me.
00:23:00.000 I'm going to change the world with my voice like this show.
00:23:03.000 Things like this is a protest.
00:23:05.000 I mean, this is, it's safer.
00:23:07.000 Of course, if the networks get seized, then these can't happen.
00:23:11.000 You got to go on the street.
00:23:12.000 But in the meantime, you know, we've been building out Rumble.
00:23:15.000 These free systems, not we, but Rumble's been building out these free systems that can permeate and navigate the storm to maintain the revolution.
00:23:25.000 I'm going to read some of these comments because, guys, for those that are listening and commenting, I know it's the 1% rule, but if you can't understand what's being said right now, you will lose everything you have.
00:23:37.000 And I'm going to make this clear for the people saying, Tim's wrong.
00:23:40.000 Tim, I would die for my family.
00:23:42.000 The left has thousands of people networked.
00:23:45.000 They're dumb as a box of rocks.
00:23:48.000 But if, let's say, a bridge collapsed, how are you getting from point A to point B?
00:23:54.000 The first thing you're going to be doing is saying, I don't know what's going on.
00:23:58.000 And what we see historically in every revolution, civil war or otherwise, is people turn their radios on, they turn the TV on, or they seek out a place where they typically gather information.
00:24:07.000 So if you're talking about in the past, they go to city centers, town halls, or they go to churches.
00:24:12.000 The left already knows what to do.
00:24:15.000 They've pre-planned this.
00:24:17.000 If a bridge goes down, it may be because they took it out.
00:24:20.000 How do they get from point A to point B?
00:24:22.000 That was part of the plan in the first place.
00:24:24.000 They have supplies, food, and they know who's in charge.
00:24:27.000 If everything collapsed tomorrow, conservatives would look to the government and they'd look to online communications.
00:24:33.000 The left would be already in their mesh network saying, what's our next move?
00:24:38.000 They're three steps ahead of you.
00:24:39.000 If you are not concerned about what we learned is going on with the insurgent groups in Minnesota and you're sitting there saying, I've got guns and I die for my family, Tim, you're wrong.
00:24:48.000 Congratulations.
00:24:50.000 You are right.
00:24:51.000 You've got honor, integrity, and weapons, and you would die for your family.
00:24:54.000 Beautiful, and I respect that tremendously.
00:24:56.000 Who are you with?
00:24:58.000 Where are you going?
00:24:58.000 Where does your water come from?
00:25:00.000 Where does your food come from?
00:25:01.000 And who is going to be in control of the weapons surrounding your jurisdiction?
00:25:06.000 The left has already planned these things out.
00:25:09.000 They already have your license plates.
00:25:11.000 They know who you are.
00:25:12.000 They know where you live.
00:25:13.000 They probably know what weapons you have.
00:25:16.000 And before any of that happens, they already know who they have in your neighborhood and they're watching you already.
00:25:23.000 That's why when James O'Keefe pulled in in a rental car, they knew his phone number.
00:25:28.000 They knew what he was driving.
00:25:30.000 This means someone in the state had his license plate and gave access to the database to this insurgency network.
00:25:36.000 And someone at the rental agency gave the information on the rental to this network as well.
00:25:42.000 I'm sorry, if you can't understand that, you are cooked.
00:25:46.000 I think that the fact that the right doesn't protest is part of the reason why.
00:25:51.000 I don't think that the right are as numerous and organized as the left, but I do think that there are groups of people on the right that are organized.
00:25:59.000 And I think the reason people don't see them in their net, they're more below the, they're not being, they're not observed is because they don't go out and protest.
00:26:07.000 They don't have these, they don't have the same kind of infrastructure because they're not outdoing things.
00:26:12.000 Agreed.
00:26:13.000 It's actually quite simple.
00:26:15.000 Here's the question.
00:26:16.000 Has the left formed a state-sponsored insurgency network with access to government infrastructure and weapons?
00:26:22.000 Yes.
00:26:23.000 Yes, they have.
00:26:24.000 Has the right.
00:26:25.000 No.
00:26:25.000 So who has the advantage in any conflict between the left and the right ideologies?
00:26:29.000 I just think the right is, I subscribe to the theory that the right, people in the right, generally have more to lose.
00:26:35.000 Like nobody is showing up to protest.
00:26:37.000 But does that change what I'm saying?
00:26:38.000 Because you have a lot to lose.
00:26:38.000 Right.
00:26:39.000 We have businesses.
00:26:39.000 We have family.
00:26:40.000 We have children.
00:26:41.000 Whereas the left consists more of like a lot of losers, like bottom-tier people that are willing to throw themselves in danger for free cause.
00:26:41.000 Right.
00:26:50.000 So who's got the advantage in a conflict?
00:26:51.000 Well, yes, maybe, yes.
00:26:53.000 I guess, but maybe I'm in my mind.
00:26:55.000 Why not?
00:26:56.000 But in COVID, during COVID, my group of people, we were like organized, if you'd call it.
00:27:02.000 We shared where places were to go to eat that didn't enforce mask mandates, where to get ivermectin, where to do these things.
00:27:07.000 And it was a right-wing sphere.
00:27:09.000 Like we all came together.
00:27:10.000 And maybe that's because I live in Texas, but we were organized.
00:27:13.000 We didn't have like these mass underground groups and stuff.
00:27:16.000 In the Alex Predi incident, 50 people had swarmed the agents that day.
00:27:21.000 50.
00:27:23.000 What people see and what they're being told is that Predi showed up to protest.
00:27:27.000 He showed up at a protest.
00:27:29.000 That's not what happened.
00:27:30.000 A network of insurgents, they're armed.
00:27:33.000 They have people with guns that were out patrolling.
00:27:35.000 We've seen all the photos and videos.
00:27:37.000 It's just that people on the right don't understand the depths of the insurgency and they don't believe it or they don't want to believe it.
00:27:43.000 And they're also extremely arrogant thinking, haha, we got guns, we're going to win.
00:27:46.000 Communications is everything.
00:27:47.000 On that day, CBP had apparently been intercepted by at least 50 different people, which is probably why the agents were freaking out and overly aggressive.
00:27:57.000 Because this may have been the seventh or eighth time a group of people jumped out of their cars standing in traffic screaming at them.
00:28:03.000 And no matter where they go, they're being stalked and followed.
00:28:06.000 These people are on shifts.
00:28:08.000 And, you know, it's funny because there's, I guess we'll get to a second.
00:28:13.000 I'll show you this right now, real quick.
00:28:14.000 We'll come back to it.
00:28:15.000 But Bonchi over at Red State says the quote, he had an extra mag is the right-wing version of, quote, he crossed state lines, a completely irrelevant qualifier, only meant to elicit assumptions wrong.
00:28:26.000 Now, the point here is this guy was on duty.
00:28:31.000 He was on duty for a paramilitary organization whose intentions is fifth generational warfare to resist, their word, the federal government duly elected dispatching law enforcement.
00:28:42.000 Their intention is quote unquote, I'm not touching you, harassment and warfare.
00:28:47.000 The goal of the left is to harass to the point where any media that emerges will be a recruiting tool.
00:28:54.000 That is, get in the face of a cop, punch him in the face if you have to, start filming after he retaliates.
00:29:00.000 Now, there's a question of why did Predty show up with a nine millimeter with an extra magazine?
00:29:08.000 I think it's pretty normal.
00:29:08.000 I carry an extra magazine.
00:29:10.000 Except he had been on duty with a paramilitary group whose intention was to stalk and harass federal law enforcement operations.
00:29:18.000 And a week prior, he had been physically attacked, they're reporting, CNN, by CBP and said, I thought I was going to die.
00:29:27.000 And didn't he have, he had some of his ribs broken.
00:29:30.000 Yes.
00:29:30.000 Yeah.
00:29:31.000 Yes.
00:29:31.000 So here's a guy who confronted ICE as part of an organized insurgent group who's confronting law enforcement for the purpose of a fifth generational war.
00:29:40.000 It's a psyop tactic.
00:29:41.000 He gets injured, says, I'm going to die, shows up next time with an extra magazine and a nine mil.
00:29:46.000 I think it's just more simple than that.
00:29:48.000 I think a lot of these people are losers.
00:29:50.000 Like, what was Predty a divorcee, right?
00:29:51.000 Like, he was a low-level loser that wanted to make a scene.
00:29:55.000 You see a lot of these body cam videos where these people get pulled over, and the first thing they get a speeding ticket, the first thing they do is they whip out their phone, they shove it in a cop's face because they, and they're like, I'm streaming on Facebook, I'm streaming on Facebook.
00:30:06.000 I think it's simpler than that.
00:30:07.000 I think that these people are just losers that want to make a scene that they hope they show up on social media.
00:30:11.000 What does that have to do with what we're saying?
00:30:14.000 I just don't think that this idea that he's part of this huge network of really high intelligence organizations.
00:30:19.000 I think he's just a loser that was carrying a gun.
00:30:23.000 That sort of makes it so that he doesn't have anything to lose.
00:30:25.000 And if you have a bunch of people who don't have anything to lose, they're going to go out there.
00:30:29.000 Yeah, these are dangerous people, agree.
00:30:31.000 But see, this is what I, I mean, I got to be honest, this is exemplifying the blind spot of the right.
00:30:38.000 The people who organized this group are not the retards on the ground getting killed.
00:30:43.000 They don't want to die.
00:30:45.000 They send people in there stead.
00:30:46.000 It's like The Patriot, what a best movie ever.
00:30:49.000 When Cornwallis says to Mel Gibson's character, stop targeting my officers.
00:30:54.000 Could you imagine what the battlefield would be like?
00:30:56.000 Chaos?
00:30:58.000 That's the way they view it.
00:31:00.000 The people who are organizing these groups have OPSEP, OPSEC training in that viral post.
00:31:06.000 They have OPSEC hygiene operations.
00:31:08.000 Now, Predi was dumb as a box of rocks, sure, but that's what you use for a foot soldier.
00:31:13.000 You're not going to, that guy's not going to be organizing anything.
00:31:16.000 Like we had in Texas, we had the John Brown Gun Club, and these guys provided security for these drag shows.
00:31:16.000 I'll give you an example.
00:31:25.000 They would show up in all black, open-carrying rifles, right?
00:31:29.000 One of their leaders was this Asian, this Korean guy, I forget his name now, but he ended up going on.
00:31:35.000 He was on these lists forever.
00:31:36.000 He was always an issue.
00:31:37.000 He'd been following him for years, right?
00:31:38.000 He'd always show up to protest.
00:31:39.000 He's like this 5'5 Korean kid.
00:31:42.000 He'd be kicked out of the military.
00:31:42.000 And he was a total loser.
00:31:44.000 His parents didn't really like him, like just total like nobody, right?
00:31:48.000 Anyway, he went on to be one of the guys that was in charge of like assaulting an ICE facility.
00:31:54.000 They shot at like ICE officers.
00:31:56.000 They eventually caught him.
00:31:58.000 But like, again, it's like, yeah, they were organized in a Telegram group, I think, is what it was.
00:32:03.000 So why is it that these groups still exist years on after all these things have happened?
00:32:10.000 I could see your argument like we need to be more focused on getting into these groups and like because he was on these lists.
00:32:15.000 He always says like they're on the list.
00:32:17.000 But their response is these guys are just dumb losers.
00:32:20.000 We all agree.
00:32:21.000 And the dumb losers are weaponized as foot soldiers by the intelligent leftists who are fomenting revolution.
00:32:27.000 I don't think, at least from what I saw, that their organization wasn't funded or organized by anybody.
00:32:34.000 It was just these group of people, these losers, decided together collectively to do this.
00:32:40.000 There wasn't any higher power.
00:32:43.000 Characterizing them as a group of losers, I think, is a mistake.
00:32:46.000 But I think that it's also a mistake to say that the right doesn't have anything.
00:32:48.000 The left is out there being activists because Donald Trump is in office.
00:32:53.000 They kind of went underground when Donald, when Joe Biden was in office and they did a little bit of stuff up in the Pacific Northwest.
00:33:00.000 But the right wing doesn't come out and organize because they're not activists the same way.
00:33:06.000 So whereas I understand what you're saying, that these people have a network and stuff like that.
00:33:10.000 I think that the reason you don't see the rights network, because there are signal chats that are a bunch of right-wing dudes, I mean, I'm familiar with that.
00:33:18.000 Again, I've been, I had covered from, what, 2011 till about, you know, 2019 or so in these direct action meetings, watching these people work.
00:33:31.000 I was in France at a safe house where they were manufacturing weapons for riots.
00:33:36.000 And the right really does not understand.
00:33:40.000 What would you consider like Patriot Front?
00:33:43.000 What about them?
00:33:43.000 Well, because those guys get together and they train.
00:33:46.000 Well, you call them the feds, but the guys that are in Patriot Front, if you believe that they're not feds, they get together, they train together, they go to the gym together.
00:33:56.000 It is they're small.
00:33:58.000 And my point is this group in Minnesota is networked with every other state.
00:34:03.000 It is a mesh network.
00:34:05.000 That's why we talk about these anti-fasselles, the groups that I refer to as the tourists.
00:34:10.000 How is it that we see the same left-wing activists organizing in China, Turkey, California, New York, Canada, Mexico?
00:34:18.000 Because these people never get caught, never get arrested.
00:34:22.000 Cam Higbee and Cam Higbee and more so.
00:34:28.000 Who are the guys that were?
00:34:31.000 You know, I'm talking about their.
00:34:32.000 They're finding all the paid, the paid networks.
00:34:34.000 Yeah Cam, and the guy we had on Lance Videos, Lance Videos yeah, and there's, there's some.
00:34:38.000 There was another person, I don't know the other person.
00:34:41.000 Well, the point is the high-ranking intelligent, high-level people.
00:34:46.000 First, at the highest level, you've got millionaires billionaires, financiers and we all know their names running these organizations and funding these various NGOs that do this.
00:34:54.000 Then you have the.
00:34:56.000 Those are the highest level guys.
00:34:58.000 There are high-level people, smarter than anybody in this room, running and organizing these things, and you're never going to learn their names.
00:35:05.000 They've networked interstate, and they tell people what to do.
00:35:10.000 They pay for lawyers.
00:35:11.000 And when anti-foot, I mean, take a look at this.
00:35:13.000 They've got judges.
00:35:15.000 Trump can't even get Don Lemon arrested.
00:35:17.000 And conservatives are like, I win a civil war.
00:35:19.000 You have no judges.
00:35:21.000 You can't even arrest one guy.
00:35:24.000 Like it is the epitome of arrogance that the right does not have a national mesh network the way the left does.
00:35:31.000 It's different than the left.
00:35:32.000 I think the rights, I mean, we want to talk about networks.
00:35:35.000 Get a shot of that Rumble logo.
00:35:37.000 Like, let me explain.
00:35:39.000 The left is a group of street violent thugs.
00:35:41.000 Look at it.
00:35:42.000 It's simple, not really.
00:35:43.000 It's highly intellectual.
00:35:44.000 They're willing to throw rocks.
00:35:45.000 The right are businessmen that don't want the system to burn.
00:35:48.000 They build organizations like Rumble, like things legitimately, like, where's the network?
00:35:52.000 It's out in the open.
00:35:54.000 I'm just going to go ahead and say I think this conversation and many in the chat exemplifies the point of, I have witnessed powerful multi-millionaire leftists organizing, fomenting violence, planning it, and we know what Yuri Bezmanov talked about.
00:36:09.000 And it's like, no matter how many times you say the right doesn't have it, they're just like, we don't need it and they're dumb.
00:36:14.000 It's like, okay.
00:36:14.000 The thing is, though, the left is highly intellectual because they're all very educated.
00:36:18.000 They all have graduate degrees in like, you know, Marxist theory and gender basket weaving and all the rest of it.
00:36:25.000 What I keep being surprised by, and I was surprised when we looked at this Women's March virtual meetup last night, which was a training, right?
00:36:34.000 They had breakout sessions.
00:36:36.000 And the one that our reporter went into was talking about how to deal with hotels.
00:36:40.000 And a woman from the Sunrise Movement said, we have started having workers start requesting noise demonstrations.
00:36:47.000 We call them wide awakes.
00:36:48.000 Start requesting wide awakes in the middle of the night.
00:36:50.000 We've had reports of ICE agents leaving after our noise demonstrations.
00:36:54.000 We've had multiple hotels report to us that they have quietly decided to kick ICE out because they don't want to say it publicly so they don't get backlash, but they've told us they've decided to kick ICE out.
00:37:03.000 We've even had two hotels.
00:37:04.000 We've gotten word, not from them, but through the grapevine, they specifically refused to house ICE because of our noise demonstrations.
00:37:10.000 She said, she said, it sort of comes from the logic of when ICE is here, they need places to sleep, they need places to eat, they need ways to get around.
00:37:21.000 What are ways that we can physically interrupt the ways that they do that so that we can kick them out?
00:37:26.000 So what she's saying is they have networks for hotels, lodging, restaurants, food service, and all the transportation.
00:37:36.000 James O'Keeffe keeps very deep information.
00:37:38.000 James O'Keefe pointed out that when he would go to a hotel, employees were in these grids and would flag his information, and then all of a sudden people would swarm and start stalking him.
00:37:49.000 But we got breaking news.
00:37:50.000 We got to jump to this from OS OSINT Defenders.
00:37:54.000 How did you say it?
00:37:55.000 Apparently, Illinois was attacked.
00:37:57.000 Sprayed by an unknown liquid.
00:37:57.000 Oh, I'll be right back.
00:37:59.000 We've got the video here.
00:38:01.000 Secretary Kristi Noem must resign or face impeachment.
00:38:13.000 So apparently he had a syringe full of a liquid.
00:38:15.000 Does she try to punch him?
00:38:17.000 She's trying to punch him.
00:38:19.000 Oh, my God.
00:38:19.000 He's spraying something.
00:38:21.000 He sprayed something on her.
00:38:26.000 That's awful.
00:38:27.000 I hope that guy gets put away.
00:38:29.000 See, but here's the difference of the reaction between like a military.
00:38:31.000 Sir, this is not a web user contest.
00:38:36.000 I don't think she's trying to punch him.
00:38:38.000 She didn't have to be a little bit more.
00:38:40.000 Her hand is open.
00:38:41.000 I don't know.
00:38:42.000 She was going to reach.
00:38:43.000 Yeah, those closed fists.
00:38:44.000 She did go in.
00:38:44.000 Look at it.
00:38:45.000 See?
00:38:46.000 That's not a wind-up for a punch.
00:38:48.000 Well, whatever it is, she didn't back away.
00:38:49.000 She's not going to be able to do it.
00:38:50.000 She got hit by the liquid.
00:38:52.000 At this point, she needs to be getting out of there and taking that sweater off immediately.
00:38:52.000 She backed away.
00:38:59.000 Yeah, that could be some kind of acid attack.
00:39:02.000 Now, what's interesting about this is this comes just after we saw that viral video of the woman saying to fill syringes up and bring them to events.
00:39:09.000 With what?
00:39:11.000 Well, I don't know what she said.
00:39:12.000 Some people mentioned that she was a nurse that worked with like paralytic agents.
00:39:16.000 But I think, correct me if I'm wrong, what she was saying was that if leftists are showing up with syringes full of unknown liquid on their bodies, ICE and CBP would be terrified to touch them because they could get stabbed and infected or injected with something.
00:39:30.000 So just like fake liquid or whatever, just being injected.
00:39:36.000 She made a comment about having something on them, but I mean, it doesn't really matter what's in the syringe.
00:39:40.000 That's the point.
00:39:41.000 The point is, if someone splashes you with a clear liquid, I think you're supposed to treat it as a deadly weapon.
00:39:47.000 I mean, absolutely.
00:39:48.000 It'll be interesting to see the fallout from this, like whether we get identification on who this guy is and his political leanings.
00:39:53.000 I'm sure they'll scrub everything from social media about him.
00:39:58.000 Not if he's on the right.
00:39:59.000 Yeah, true.
00:40:00.000 Just to ramble.
00:40:01.000 Which I mean, it's likely political.
00:40:04.000 What did he say?
00:40:04.000 Let's try and get what he says.
00:40:10.000 He looks anyone make out what he said He looks ethnic.
00:40:14.000 try again i don't know for mexican or something impeachment Look at the dude, the old guy in the audience, just kind of just like hanging out, just watching.
00:40:41.000 I'll say something too about, you know, in the previous conversation, the right is completely unwilling to engage in tactics to win war the way the left is.
00:40:49.000 And we've cited the Curtis Yarvin quote, which is really great, that the right treats power the way a wine snob treats alcohol, and Democrats treat power the way alcoholics treat alcohol.
00:40:59.000 The left is, I mean, we were talking about this a moment ago.
00:41:03.000 The AG in Virginia is saying he wanted conservative children to die in their parents' arms to teach conservatives a lesson.
00:41:08.000 About gun control.
00:41:09.000 Yeah.
00:41:10.000 And he was elected.
00:41:12.000 And yeah.
00:41:14.000 So, you know, conservatives very much, you know, and it's a coalition, really.
00:41:18.000 I mean, moderate liberals as well, unwilling to engage in the kind of behavior that wins conflict.
00:41:23.000 The left, they have no problem.
00:41:27.000 You can engage in other ways of winning too, but they don't want to engage in the way that the left generally wins.
00:41:32.000 The right is unwilling to be evil.
00:41:32.000 No, no, no.
00:41:34.000 And evil is the fastest path towards victory.
00:41:39.000 Yep.
00:41:40.000 So would you say that's the way it should go?
00:41:43.000 What do you mean the way it should be?
00:41:44.000 So do you avow this?
00:41:46.000 Avow this.
00:41:47.000 If it was a right-winger spraying something to assault and this is beneficial to the left.
00:41:53.000 So my point is the most powerful thing that ICE could have done in the Pridy situation was to stand down and let him get shot.
00:42:04.000 I'll use this example.
00:42:06.000 It was the May 29th insurrection.
00:42:08.000 Is that the date?
00:42:08.000 I always mix them up.
00:42:09.000 It was May 20th.
00:42:10.000 May 29th?
00:42:11.000 Yeah, I'll check right now.
00:42:11.000 I'm pretty sure.
00:42:12.000 So thousands of far leftists come to the White House and they tear the barricades down and they're beating cops.
00:42:18.000 They set fire to St. John's Church and they firebombed the White House grounds.
00:42:22.000 Trump, or more importantly, Barr.
00:42:24.000 It was May 29th.
00:42:25.000 Yeah.
00:42:26.000 Barr sends up the cops and crushes the revolt, pushes them out.
00:42:30.000 The media then says Trump is bunker boy and mercilessly beat peaceful protesters for a photo op.
00:42:36.000 What should Trump have done if he wanted to win?
00:42:39.000 Now, unfortunately for the Republicans, this would have been the, I would describe as not necessarily the most of malicious evil, but not the honorable course of action.
00:42:51.000 And that would have been, Trump should have stood down and let the far left ransack the White House.
00:42:57.000 What would the narrative have been if the day after May 29th, the White House grounds were aflame, St. John's Church was razed to the ground, they'd say, oops, Trump would come out and he'd say, last night, thousands of far-left extremists laid waste to the White House grounds, set fire to the historic St. John's church and burned it to the ground.
00:43:19.000 It's been destroyed.
00:43:20.000 This country cannot tolerate this degree of extremism.
00:43:23.000 And for this, we are organizing the Capitol Police to go nationwide and hunt down these insurrectionists.
00:43:29.000 Congress, Republicans, could announce a panel on the M29 committee to figure out how it is that this group was so organized, they were able to ransack and rush the White House and destroy a church and everything they did, the smoke and the fire emerging from D.C. See, on January 6th, Trump wanted the National Guard, but Pelosi wouldn't do it.
00:43:48.000 The Capitol Police wouldn't bring in backup, and there's a viral video of J-Sixers begging the cops standing around to do something.
00:43:56.000 Why wouldn't they?
00:43:58.000 Well, look at the narrative the Democrats got out of it.
00:44:00.000 Trump incited an insurrection.
00:44:03.000 It's his fault.
00:44:04.000 He's no longer eligible to be president.
00:44:06.000 Look, if they wanted to stop J6, they could have done it in two seconds.
00:44:10.000 I've seen fatter cops than the ones they had stop bigger riots.
00:44:14.000 Now, they stood down, let these people storm their way in for whatever reason.
00:44:19.000 And you could argue it's incompetence.
00:44:21.000 You can argue, look, I know a lot of cops were fighting on the front of the building, but they didn't get the backup they wanted, and the National Guard won sent in.
00:44:28.000 Trump went about May 29th in the overt, standard, honorable way.
00:44:33.000 We will not let extremists damage the White House or burn down churches, send in the troops.
00:44:38.000 The media loved it.
00:44:39.000 The left loved it.
00:44:40.000 Peaceful protesters mercilessly beaten by Trump's Gestapo.
00:44:45.000 Even though 70-plus feds were injured, a total of like 103 government employees, law enforcement were injured.
00:44:51.000 The media doesn't care.
00:44:53.000 But what happened when Andy No was left bleeding from the ears and nose and face?
00:44:57.000 All of a sudden, there was a narrative emerging that the left had gone too far and they started to panic.
00:45:02.000 The media couldn't deny it.
00:45:04.000 Brian Stelter finally got on his show and said, this was wrong and shouldn't have happened.
00:45:09.000 Because to the regular people not paying attention to the normal public who only get their news and politics passively, they were seeing images of a journalist, a gay Asian, left bleeding, bloodied up with, I think, like his ears were busted.
00:45:24.000 Yeah, he had a traumatic brain injury.
00:45:27.000 This is fifth generational warfare that the left understands perfectly.
00:45:30.000 And it goes back to Occupy Wall Street.
00:45:32.000 Occupy Wall Street only exists because Anthony Bologna pepper sprayed three women standing on the sidewalk.
00:45:40.000 This is, it's a fact.
00:45:43.000 The initial weekend of Occupy Wall Street was small and nobody was there.
00:45:46.000 I mean, not nobody, but it's small.
00:45:49.000 That week after that, I was there.
00:45:52.000 It was day three, the third day of the protests, and there was about seven people standing in Zuccotti Park, about seven.
00:45:58.000 It was raining and we were standing under a tarp and a cop walked over in a trench coat and says, man, more power to you.
00:46:04.000 They didn't care.
00:46:05.000 And the guys under the tarp said, don't worry, we're going to do a bigger protest this weekend.
00:46:09.000 More people will come out when they're off work.
00:46:11.000 That weekend, more people did show up, and they decided to march through the streets.
00:46:15.000 The police decided to end the unpermitted march by wrapping everybody up in a kettling net.
00:46:20.000 And there were three women standing on the sidewalk doing nothing.
00:46:23.000 They weren't fighting.
00:46:25.000 They were just standing at their arms down.
00:46:26.000 And Anthony Bologna, who was a white shirt NYPD, for no reason walked up and blasted him in the face with pepper spray.
00:46:34.000 In about 12 hours, the video got 1.2 million views on YouTube.
00:46:38.000 At the time, YouTube still being relatively young.
00:46:40.000 This was the fastest viral video they had seen.
00:46:44.000 Excuse me.
00:46:45.000 All of a sudden, there were occupies in every city across the country.
00:46:51.000 If Anthony Bologna did not pepper spray those women, there was no press, no attention, nothing.
00:46:56.000 And then after this, you got the takeover of the Brooklyn Bridge and the mass arrest, which the left then used again and said, the police marched us onto the bridge intentionally and then arrested 300 people.
00:47:09.000 All of a sudden, now you have 300,000 active, Occupy protesters across the country.
00:47:15.000 Every major city had an occupied protest.
00:47:17.000 That's what created it.
00:47:19.000 They have known since then.
00:47:21.000 The tactic is, it's the quote, I'm not touching you tactic.
00:47:25.000 You must be perceived as the victim at all times to win public support and delegitimize the government.
00:47:33.000 That would mean if Donald Trump on May 29th let the far left ransack everything.
00:47:39.000 Yes, some people have said the left will claim he's weak.
00:47:42.000 How could he let these people do it?
00:47:43.000 And Trump could come out and say, you're right.
00:47:46.000 I was too weak.
00:47:47.000 And for that, I apologize.
00:47:49.000 I had believed the reporting from the press that they were peaceful protests.
00:47:53.000 And out of an abundance of caution, a fear that innocent, peaceful protesters could be injured, I ordered the police to stand down.
00:48:01.000 And I was wrong.
00:48:03.000 I won't make the same mistake twice.
00:48:05.000 We will be expanding the Capitol police force to hunt down these insurrectionists and make sure they face justice.
00:48:12.000 Trump and the Republicans keep playing this straight on.
00:48:16.000 I like it to this.
00:48:17.000 The left are like ninjas and the right are like samurai, deeply honorable, staring you straight down and saying, this is what I'm going to do if you act out.
00:48:25.000 Meanwhile, the left are dressing up like handmaidens, walking in the back door and assassinating the emperor while no one's paying attention.
00:48:31.000 Do you think that conservatives should be organizing and should be putting together groups like the left is doing?
00:48:38.000 Do you think that that's what should be happening?
00:48:40.000 I think that's not necessarily like what the left is doing, but the right needs to have mutual aid groups and group chats networked with each other state.
00:48:50.000 State officials should be organizing this among people who care, and they should be in communications, not for tracking license plates, not for disrupting law enforcement operations, but for knowing what to do in an emergency and to generally just be connected because of what we're witnessing the left do.
00:49:10.000 It also helps to control for who is this guy and why did he do it?
00:49:14.000 Already people in chat are saying false flag attack.
00:49:17.000 I wouldn't be surprised.
00:49:18.000 Ilhan Omar is going to get a ton of attention from this.
00:49:20.000 A move like this does not benefit the right.
00:49:23.000 And every person, every single person knows it.
00:49:27.000 Donald Trump's assassination, the left claimed he faked it.
00:49:30.000 They claimed that Trump staged his own assassination because of how beneficial it was to him.
00:49:34.000 With liberals coming out and saying he just won his reelection.
00:49:38.000 The assassination attempt on Trump's life guaranteed he'd win.
00:49:41.000 And the crazy thing is, we still weren't entirely sure if Trump was going to win.
00:49:45.000 But that night on election day, I remember we're sitting at the Daily Wire office and I told the Daily Wire crew guys, I was like, hey, this might get contested.
00:49:53.000 We may be here, like the election may go on for a week.
00:49:55.000 And they said, fair point.
00:49:56.000 We'll give you the studio for the week just to be sure.
00:49:58.000 And I said, sounds good.
00:49:59.000 And then that night, clean as a whistle, Trump won.
00:50:02.000 Slam dunk.
00:50:03.000 That's the power of these psychological operations and the perception of the American people.
00:50:08.000 So ultimately, my point is this.
00:50:09.000 The conservatives and the right don't like lying.
00:50:12.000 They don't like being lied to.
00:50:14.000 They don't like being dishonorable.
00:50:15.000 And they're unwilling to do dishonorable things in war for the most part.
00:50:19.000 The left is completely willing to and does every day.
00:50:22.000 And that's why moderates have shifted to the right.
00:50:25.000 And that's why the quote, he was trying to massacre people narrative did not work.
00:50:30.000 Because the right is not moved by being lied to.
00:50:33.000 I think a lot about honesty and deceit.
00:50:35.000 Generally, I used to think honesty was very virtuous and deceit was sinful.
00:50:39.000 It's not, according to the Catholics anyway.
00:50:40.000 They don't care.
00:50:41.000 You can lie.
00:50:42.000 I think because they realize that deceiving authoritarian power structures is actually a very good thing, can be a very good thing.
00:50:48.000 So, like, thinking about Catholics, Catholics and honesty and deceit are not sins and virtues.
00:50:58.000 Lying is in violation of the Ten Commandments, which is called Judaism.
00:51:04.000 I'm talking about Christianity.
00:51:09.000 Deceit is not a sin.
00:51:10.000 No, That's not it.
00:51:13.000 Okay, well, pull it up.
00:51:14.000 You want to value a thousand dollars?
00:51:16.000 Thou shalt not bear.
00:51:17.000 You're talking about Judaism.
00:51:18.000 No, no, no, no.
00:51:19.000 Talking about the Bible, bro.
00:51:21.000 It's a Ten Commandments.
00:51:22.000 The Ten Commandments are the, they are part of the basis of Christianity, and that is morality.
00:51:29.000 Modesty and deceit are not a virtue and a sin in Catholicism.
00:51:32.000 They're not the seven.
00:51:33.000 They're not even considered in the virtues and sins.
00:51:34.000 I don't know.
00:51:35.000 When I give confession, I have to say that.
00:51:36.000 You got to say, you got to tell the priests are not a cruel.
00:51:41.000 That's not good.
00:51:42.000 They're not.
00:51:43.000 Like, the Catholics don't think the seven deadly sins are the actual sins.
00:51:47.000 The Catholics think the Ten Commandments.
00:51:49.000 It's a direct violation of the Ninth Commandment.
00:51:51.000 It is a sin.
00:51:52.000 Ian.
00:51:53.000 Okay, I'm talking about Catholicism.
00:51:55.000 Right.
00:51:56.000 Yeah.
00:51:56.000 Just Catholicism.
00:51:57.000 Which arranges the Ten Commandments.
00:51:58.000 Modesty is not a virtue in Catholicism.
00:52:02.000 In the literal virtues.
00:52:03.000 That's what I'm talking about.
00:52:04.000 The seven virtues and the seven sins.
00:52:06.000 Where in the Bible is the seven virtues?
00:52:08.000 Ian's Catholic and I don't know if it's a good idea.
00:52:09.000 Okay, okay, okay.
00:52:10.000 Let's just clarify this.
00:52:11.000 Ian is referring to the seven vices and the seven virtues.
00:52:15.000 But that doesn't mean those are the only vices and virtues.
00:52:18.000 And also, that's not biblical.
00:52:20.000 Like the seven virtues and the seven vices, those are the title places.
00:52:24.000 Let's talk about the news.
00:52:25.000 Let's jump to this story.
00:52:27.000 You guys interrupted my awesome point.
00:52:28.000 Okay, let's talk about the news.
00:52:30.000 We have a viral tweet from the red-headed libertarian, and this makes me look, I got to be honest.
00:52:37.000 I'm saddened by the death of Alex Predi.
00:52:39.000 I'm saddened by death in general.
00:52:41.000 I don't want this conflict and this fighting.
00:52:42.000 There's an argument over the legality and what people were doing, whether he was right to have been there, armed or otherwise.
00:52:49.000 But this genuinely makes me feel bad for the guy's legacy.
00:52:53.000 Josie says, it appears MSNBC gave Alex Predty a tan, a stronger jawline, better teeth, a shorter forehead, and a nose job to make him look hotter for the affluent white female liberals.
00:53:04.000 They broadened his shoulders, thickened his neck, and gave him biceps.
00:53:08.000 I kid you not.
00:53:09.000 Fact check, it's real.
00:53:11.000 That's crazy.
00:53:12.000 You gotta check this out.
00:53:13.000 I've got the two articles.
00:53:14.000 This is the actual photo of the guy.
00:53:16.000 And he's got a big, long nose.
00:53:18.000 He's thin, kind of pasty and pale.
00:53:22.000 It is what it is.
00:53:23.000 I'm not trying to rag on the guy.
00:53:24.000 This is the image they made.
00:53:25.000 They gave him a tan, shortened his nose, widened a little bit.
00:53:28.000 He's got nicer teeth.
00:53:29.000 They gave him a broader jaw.
00:53:31.000 Look at this.
00:53:32.000 His chest is thicker.
00:53:34.000 They're here's MSNBC.
00:53:37.000 They're using this edited photo.
00:53:40.000 I'm sorry, MS Now.
00:53:41.000 No, it's Ms. Now.
00:53:42.000 Ms. Now is what they said.
00:53:43.000 Ms. Now.
00:53:44.000 They read it.
00:53:44.000 That's what I said.
00:53:45.000 So they actually do.
00:53:45.000 Okay.
00:53:47.000 Now here's people using the real photo.
00:53:50.000 People.com using the real photo.
00:53:52.000 MS Now using the fake edited make him look hot photo with clean, shiny teeth.
00:53:58.000 This is insane.
00:53:59.000 The post-mortem.
00:54:01.000 That's the touchline version.
00:54:03.000 I'll tell you why they're doing it.
00:54:04.000 Because when Luigi Mangione got all the press, these women were like, ooh, he's so hot.
00:54:11.000 And when Tyler Robinson got pressed, they were like, no.
00:54:14.000 It's the meme.
00:54:15.000 It's the meme where the office lady gets hit on by the hot guy and she thinks it's lovely and then she gets hit on by the fat.
00:54:21.000 And it's sexual harassment.
00:54:22.000 Sexual harassment.
00:54:24.000 The goal here is because this will generate sympathy from white suburban females.
00:54:29.000 They are going to see this guy and they're going to be mad and they're trying to lionize him by making him more attractive.
00:54:36.000 And then they'll all go get in their minivans and block ice in the middle of the street.
00:54:40.000 Yep.
00:54:42.000 Crazy.
00:54:42.000 It's genuinely insane.
00:54:44.000 Look at this.
00:54:45.000 Do you want a post-mortem glow-up when it's time?
00:54:49.000 But it's got to be really ridiculous.
00:54:51.000 Like, I need flowing locks and just like massive muscles and perfect teeth.
00:54:56.000 Like blonde, flowing locks.
00:54:58.000 Yes.
00:54:59.000 And people will just be like, that's the way we remember him.
00:55:02.000 Yep.
00:55:03.000 It is the listen.
00:55:03.000 Yo, it is.
00:55:05.000 We were just talking about in the previous segment the lengths the left is willing to go to win.
00:55:10.000 The right is not.
00:55:11.000 And some people on the right sometimes do things like this, but it doesn't work because what motivates the right is calling out the deception and understanding what's happening.
00:55:21.000 But the left is fueled entirely by these zombie zealots that just believe what the TV tells them.
00:55:28.000 And they actually gave this guy a post-posthumous glow-up, right?
00:55:34.000 Post-mortem because they want women to be attracted to him.
00:55:37.000 They want to pull.
00:55:39.000 You know, look, I was saying this before Trump won because of suburban housewives.
00:55:43.000 And it was RFK Jr. who got him there.
00:55:45.000 So they're attacking RFK relentlessly and they're trying to convince these women to oppose Trump so they can win midterms and shout out the Republicans through by any means necessary.
00:55:58.000 Yeah.
00:55:59.000 I don't know.
00:56:00.000 I think it's hilarious, to be honest with you.
00:56:02.000 It's funny.
00:56:04.000 But wow.
00:56:05.000 Damn.
00:56:05.000 You also have the NYPD is now arresting anti-ICE protesters at a Hilton in Manhattan where protesters are agitators, whatever.
00:56:14.000 These crazy loser leftists are saying that ICE agents are staying there.
00:56:20.000 This is crazy, man.
00:56:22.000 This is like a, this is what MS Now actually ran on their TV.
00:56:22.000 Look at this.
00:56:26.000 Giga Chad Petty.
00:56:28.000 Someone called him Alex Prettier.
00:56:31.000 That's about right.
00:56:32.000 Yep.
00:56:35.000 You know, looking at.
00:56:36.000 Well, they did, you know, they did the opposite of Joe Rogan.
00:56:39.000 You know, the whole actual video during COVID.
00:56:44.000 Video evidence from the scene shows that Predi got between a woman who'd been pepper sprayed and a federal agent who was pepper spraying her.
00:56:52.000 Predi is then pepper sprayed himself.
00:56:55.000 He continues to try to protect her, but he's tackled and restrained before ICE agents open fire on him.
00:57:01.000 I don't even know if it's a good idea.
00:57:02.000 It can't be.
00:57:03.000 And it can.
00:57:06.000 And again.
00:57:07.000 Not a single shred of video evidence.
00:57:09.000 Let's see if they have the time stamp on his fault.
00:57:12.000 I think we haven't talked about it.
00:57:13.000 Yeah, for real.
00:57:14.000 I mean, this is pretty crazy.
00:57:15.000 I've had people hitting me up asking me if the SIG thing is real.
00:57:17.000 Yes.
00:57:17.000 And I'm like, yeah, absolutely.
00:57:19.000 And send him the video where the guy pinches it, it fires.
00:57:22.000 Didn't the police officer have a misfire like that?
00:57:25.000 A discharge like that?
00:57:27.000 They're actually.
00:57:28.000 Oh, God.
00:57:29.000 Horrible God.
00:57:30.000 They're actually firearms instructors that won't allow people to bring SIG 320s to their classes anymore just because it's not worth the risk.
00:57:40.000 So it is real.
00:57:42.000 Get a Glock.
00:57:45.000 That's my call on it.
00:57:47.000 But, you know, I mean, look, you can't, if the left will adjust the way Joe Rogan looks to make him look sickly during COVID, so they can reinforce their narrative, it makes perfect sense that they would do this to make him look more attractive, make him much more of a sympathetic character.
00:58:05.000 Charisma and how attractive a person is, whether we like it or not.
00:58:09.000 That's something that all human beings respond to.
00:58:12.000 If you've got a, you know, if you're, if you're some kind of weird-looking dude and look, Pretty was not a particularly, you know, attractive guy generally.
00:58:25.000 So they think they removed it because it's not, it's not in here.
00:58:30.000 Well, maybe they're not.
00:58:31.000 People didn't realize they got played.
00:58:32.000 Yeah, they may have gone on YouTube and then trimmed that out of the video.
00:58:35.000 You can do that.
00:58:36.000 I mean, I can't find it in this clip, but it's on their website.
00:58:40.000 We found that already.
00:58:41.000 Like, this is MS Now.
00:58:43.000 It's literally the thumbnail.
00:58:45.000 I mean, you can tell.
00:58:46.000 Man.
00:58:49.000 They make him look a lot less like Ari Shafir in the news.
00:58:55.000 He looks right-wing.
00:58:57.000 He looks like right-wing.
00:59:00.000 If I saw that guy in the street, I had to judge it or guess his political.
00:59:03.000 And he's like, yeah, the dude's right-wing.
00:59:05.000 Yeah, I think they call it.
00:59:06.000 That hilarity isn't true.
00:59:08.000 He does.
00:59:09.000 Yeah.
00:59:10.000 They're like, oh, look, you make it look like you had some steaks.
00:59:13.000 Make him look like he eats protein.
00:59:15.000 He's a member of the Clean Plate Club.
00:59:15.000 It works out.
00:59:18.000 I'm curious your thoughts on what's going on right now with Trump saying he called Waltz and that they're going to work on a deal.
00:59:25.000 See, a lot of people on the left are saying Waltz surrendered.
00:59:27.000 A lot of people on the right are saying Trump surrendered.
00:59:29.000 I think this is largely Trump's administration was routed.
00:59:32.000 Pulling out Bavino and reassigning Noam shows that whatever they were doing wasn't working.
00:59:36.000 Sending in Homan is plan B.
00:59:39.000 But I'm curious what you think if this is a retreat surrender and on whose part?
00:59:44.000 Man, I mean, I like that we were in there.
00:59:48.000 I think the optics look bad.
00:59:50.000 It does look like, it probably does look like a retreat to a lot of people, but I think the Trump administration is going based off of polling they saw, where the majority of people saw what was happening as like an L, right?
01:00:00.000 They saw it as a bad thing, and they're just responding to that.
01:00:04.000 So as somebody who supports like ICE going in and rounding up like horrible people and just people that just shouldn't be here, I kind of view it as a retreat.
01:00:12.000 But I mean, I don't care.
01:00:15.000 I hope we go into more cities and we continue doing this.
01:00:15.000 I'm glad.
01:00:18.000 Yeah.
01:00:19.000 I mean, look, the right that's angry with Trump for not being forceful enough are going to say that it's a retreat.
01:00:26.000 The left, if they think that Waltz lost and they think that Trump won, fine.
01:00:32.000 I'm cool with that.
01:00:33.000 If that's their perception, you can have that perception.
01:00:36.000 As for me, I kind of want to wait and see what happens.
01:00:39.000 I do think that I think Christy Noam's days are numbered.
01:00:42.000 I think.
01:00:43.000 I think, yeah.
01:00:44.000 And I'm not saying like right away, but I think that she's going to eventually be removed.
01:00:49.000 And I think that who do you think would replace her?
01:00:51.000 I have no idea at all.
01:00:55.000 I haven't even looked into who would be candidates or who might be.
01:00:58.000 Too bad Giuliani's not up for it again.
01:01:00.000 Yeah, right.
01:01:00.000 But even if it is a retreat, just fine, go to the next city and do this again.
01:01:04.000 Like just keep doing it.
01:01:06.000 We can do it anyway.
01:01:07.000 We had another angle of the attack on Ilhan Omar, and I'm wondering if we play this.
01:01:11.000 You can see the guy where he's sitting.
01:01:12.000 I wonder if we're going to get if we're able to hear what he says.
01:01:17.000 must resign or face impeachment.
01:01:27.000 I think you said something.
01:01:28.000 I think you said she's not resigning or something.
01:01:31.000 Maybe.
01:01:33.000 She's not resigning.
01:01:37.000 Because she's calling for Christina to resign.
01:01:39.000 But she's not resigning.
01:01:41.000 Democrats are trying to impeach her.
01:01:44.000 She does charge him, though.
01:01:47.000 From Minnesota strong.
01:01:49.000 And we will stay Brazilian in the face of whatever they might throw out.
01:01:53.000 I think it's Trump.
01:01:54.000 Like, remember he got shot and Trump stayed.
01:01:57.000 Well, the one reason I think it's fake is that she's not reacting to being sprayed with an unknown liquid.
01:02:03.000 Any security team is going to be like, rush him to the bathroom, get the shirt off now, because it could be a corrosive chemical.
01:02:11.000 Or it could be a biological agent of some sort.
01:02:14.000 I think the normal female reaction would be to freak out too, right?
01:02:14.000 You can't just stand there.
01:02:18.000 Like, it is a little weird.
01:02:20.000 It's the response to that on the left is going to be like, Ilhan Omar is strong and refuses to back down.
01:02:24.000 But for her security to be like, nah, just ignore it.
01:02:27.000 He sprayed you with something.
01:02:28.000 You're fine.
01:02:29.000 Like, that's weird to me.
01:02:32.000 I'll just put it like this.
01:02:32.000 I don't know.
01:02:33.000 Occam's razor suggests Ilhan Omar has the worst security team I've seen in a long time.
01:02:39.000 I mean, for real, they're like, just keep going about your speech.
01:02:41.000 Don't mind that he sprayed you with some kind of a syringe.
01:02:47.000 Yeah, this little bit she keeps going, isn't it?
01:02:49.000 Like, what is on her?
01:02:50.000 And that's what she's wearing about pleat shirts.
01:02:53.000 Everybody said that.
01:02:54.000 I mean, look, I don't think material.
01:02:56.000 I don't think they hired a guy to false flag or anything.
01:02:59.000 I mean, it's a possibility.
01:03:00.000 I just think it's very strange that Ilhan Omar isn't reacting to being sprayed with an unknown substance.
01:03:06.000 I mean, you get a letter in the mail with white powder and they lock everything down and then they make you like do a chemical wash or whatever.
01:03:13.000 She got sprayed and she's like, eh, who cares?
01:03:13.000 Yeah.
01:03:16.000 Cold down.
01:03:18.000 I'm going to finish my remarks.
01:03:19.000 She's shaking.
01:03:20.000 It is important for me to continue to lead my Democratic colleagues in demanding her resignation.
01:03:28.000 What do you think the liquid was?
01:03:30.000 It's probably water.
01:03:32.000 I think it's water.
01:03:34.000 I don't know.
01:03:36.000 I don't think it's actually fake.
01:03:38.000 It is weird, though, that she's not reacting.
01:03:40.000 It could just be that she's shocked.
01:03:42.000 And you can see her hands are trembling.
01:03:43.000 Yeah.
01:03:44.000 I mean, look, the point of that is kind of just to be like, you can be touched.
01:03:48.000 You know, it's to scare people.
01:03:49.000 It's like, hey, you can.
01:03:50.000 We got you.
01:03:51.000 Yeah, we can touch you.
01:03:53.000 So whether or not there was anything that actually is going to cause harm, the point was to be like, hey, you know.
01:03:59.000 See, the thing is, though, in modern warfare, we know exactly what the outcome of this is.
01:04:06.000 It's a rallying cry for Ilhan Omar.
01:04:08.000 She's going to raise millions of dollars.
01:04:10.000 Yeah, this is a net game for Democrats, for sure.
01:04:12.000 Well, not just her.
01:04:12.000 I mean, the Democrats are all going to use it across the country.
01:04:15.000 No right-wing organizer would advocate for something like this.
01:04:19.000 So then the question is, who benefits when you watch this stuff?
01:04:21.000 And it's no one on the right benefits from attacking Ilhan Omar.
01:04:27.000 Only a lifetime.
01:04:29.000 It's interesting, too.
01:04:30.000 I mean, all of our first reactions were, that's terrible.
01:04:33.000 That's what I was going to say.
01:04:34.000 It's like, if you reversed, if you reversed the political leanings on this, they would be celebrating this.
01:04:38.000 The left would love this.
01:04:38.000 They would love it.
01:04:39.000 Like, oh, I wish, I hope it has acid.
01:04:41.000 I hope she got hurt.
01:04:44.000 They still love that Charlie was killed.
01:04:45.000 Yeah.
01:04:46.000 Some people, some sick people are that.
01:04:48.000 Yeah, I mean, there were protesters.
01:04:51.000 I'd argue the majority of Democrats.
01:04:52.000 I was in Minnesota last night.
01:04:54.000 Yeah, there were protesters out in Minnesota last night.
01:04:56.000 No, I said I'd argue that.
01:04:57.000 I thought that were yelling that to justify that claim.
01:05:00.000 What, that Democrats celebrated the death of Charlie Kirk?
01:05:03.000 The majority of Democrats.
01:05:04.000 I would argue that the majority of Democrats were probably okay or happy, okay or happy with the death of Charlie Kirk or chill with it.
01:05:12.000 It's like 6 million people believe you have no way of proving that or even there were candidates running for office who were openly chill with the murder of Charlie Kirk and their staffers were chill with the murder of Charlie Kirk.
01:05:27.000 That was uncovered.
01:05:29.000 Undercover journalists got all that information and all of these people were still elected into office.
01:05:34.000 So even if those Democrats were not like yay about it, they were certainly fine with it.
01:05:39.000 Yeah, they were okay with it.
01:05:40.000 And they were fine with the attitude.
01:05:42.000 And I certainly know that when I've talked to, like I talked to people in my life who were uncomfortable talking about Charlie's death, even though even knowing that I knew him, you know, they were uncomfortable talking about it because they did not want to appear to acknowledge that it was bad that someone who they thought was a racist, horrible person was killed.
01:06:04.000 The people that I'm close to.
01:06:05.000 And it was kind of hard to deal with it.
01:06:07.000 So I don't know if it's necessarily the majority, but I think certainly a lot of Democrats, even in private, were perfectly comfortable with the idea that Charlie was murdered.
01:06:17.000 You need only look at the Man in the Street interviews that we've seen from a handful of people where they're literally just in Times Square being like, what do you think?
01:06:23.000 And they're like, well, Charlie was a bad guy.
01:06:26.000 Would you agree that the majority of college campus students were okay with the death of Charlie Kirk?
01:06:31.000 I don't, I can't, I can't know what, how many people is that that you're talking about?
01:06:34.000 Just an average, take an average college campus.
01:06:37.000 No one could make that assumption accurately.
01:06:39.000 No, just take a guess.
01:06:42.000 I got an idea.
01:06:43.000 Let's, Ian, you want to do a speaking tour colleges?
01:06:47.000 I was actually just about to go do that before Charlie got killed.
01:06:50.000 That was been on my mind a lot.
01:06:53.000 I think you'll get attacked at every single one, and they'll try and shut you down.
01:06:57.000 And it won't be for anything.
01:06:58.000 I understand why you think it won't be for anything you say.
01:07:01.000 It'll be for the association.
01:07:02.000 And no right-wingers are going to come in and protect you.
01:07:02.000 Yeah.
01:07:05.000 I understand why you guys would say those things too, you know.
01:07:08.000 Because they're likely correct.
01:07:10.000 Well, this is the world you live in, too.
01:07:12.000 I think it's that it's not about the world you live in.
01:07:17.000 It's like studying the past to predict the future.
01:07:22.000 Why would you be able to speak at a college campus?
01:07:25.000 Because of what I'm talking about.
01:07:28.000 Why would you?
01:07:29.000 I mean, I was to speak at like it doesn't matter what Ben Shapiro was talking about.
01:07:32.000 I'm going to go to Rice University and talk about graphene or something.
01:07:35.000 Yeah.
01:07:35.000 I could do that.
01:07:37.000 I'd be willing to make a bet with you that you will be protested and threatened.
01:07:42.000 I didn't get attacked when I was there last time.
01:07:44.000 Maybe you didn't go on a public speaking, formally promoted postered event.
01:07:50.000 You showed up, walked in with one or two guys and no one knew.
01:07:50.000 Yeah.
01:07:54.000 Do you think if I did a graphene talk at Rice, I'd get protested?
01:07:56.000 I think if flyers went up saying Ian Crossland is coming, they would absolutely shut you down.
01:08:02.000 I don't think I'm that divisive.
01:08:04.000 I'm not even in the public eye to Ian.
01:08:06.000 That's not remember, but that's not what this is about.
01:08:08.000 We said it's not because of you, it's because of the association.
01:08:12.000 That's a long association.
01:08:14.000 You're on Timcast every night.
01:08:16.000 Is that a long association?
01:08:17.000 Yeah.
01:08:18.000 Yeah.
01:08:18.000 Is it really?
01:08:19.000 Why?
01:08:20.000 You're everyone.
01:08:20.000 He's like a musician, friend.
01:08:22.000 I mean, we're like, I know you got power on the street.
01:08:26.000 I love this because, like, the trope of Ian is that he's sleeping, wakes up right before the show starts, sits down, has no idea what's going on.
01:08:26.000 You want to hear that?
01:08:34.000 I intentionally want to hear about the politics fresh when I get here.
01:08:37.000 But it's not about right now.
01:08:38.000 It's about the past seven years.
01:08:40.000 Like, you've just not listened.
01:08:43.000 Well, I mean, Charlie Kirk is dead.
01:08:44.000 Who do you think has a higher chance?
01:08:47.000 Who do you think has a higher chance of getting assaulted on a college campus?
01:08:50.000 Hassan Piker or Tim Poole?
01:08:53.000 Assaulted?
01:08:55.000 Think about it.
01:08:55.000 You don't have to think about it.
01:08:56.000 Well, I'm talking like half the answer, even if I think I know what it is.
01:08:59.000 Yeah, I'm going to think about the question.
01:08:59.000 I'm going to think about it.
01:09:00.000 Okay, what answer.
01:09:01.000 I think Tim has a hot, there's a higher likelihood because of the political climate.
01:09:05.000 Hassan Piker can go literally anywhere he wants.
01:09:09.000 Hassan Piker can go into Turning Point USA, will not be attacked.
01:09:14.000 He can go into and he will not get attacked.
01:09:19.000 And Charlie Kirk can't even go to his own event without getting shot and murdered.
01:09:26.000 It's true.
01:09:28.000 That's a statement I don't disagree with.
01:09:30.000 I mean, the Charlie part, I don't disagree with that.
01:09:32.000 It was awful.
01:09:33.000 But I don't know.
01:09:34.000 I don't even know why we're talking about how wise are people on college campuses.
01:09:38.000 No, it's the political climate and the threat of violence.
01:09:38.000 Is that really what we're doing?
01:09:41.000 That's the point being made.
01:09:42.000 Because you're acting like you're unaware of what the left represents and what they'll do.
01:09:48.000 No.
01:09:49.000 Like, it's not even a question of the left.
01:09:50.000 It's a question of these jurisdictions.
01:09:53.000 The AG of Virginia wants conservative children to die.
01:09:58.000 His words.
01:10:00.000 It'll teach him a lesson.
01:10:03.000 Yeah, if you had a right-wing AG calling for the death of a Democrat president, the right would disavow that immediately.
01:10:09.000 Yeah, that's horrible.
01:10:11.000 But a left-winger AG does this and calls for the death of Donald Trump, and they're like, yeah, we're going to vote for him.
01:10:15.000 And he might win to Libby's point.
01:10:17.000 He might win.
01:10:19.000 He's going to say what he's got to say to win, right?
01:10:21.000 And they have Jay Jones won.
01:10:23.000 Spanberger won, even though one of her campaign aides was caught on camera talking about how everybody on the Spanberger campaign was, you know, not unhappy that Charlie Kirk was killed.
01:10:35.000 Yeah.
01:10:36.000 Look, we don't, you don't have to like it, Ian, but that's the reality.
01:10:40.000 We're the protests.
01:10:41.000 That's where the struggle is, guys.
01:10:43.000 Like, we're at his.
01:10:44.000 It's not a struggle session.
01:10:45.000 I'm sorry to interrupt.
01:10:46.000 I was trying to fill.
01:10:48.000 It's not a struggle session.
01:10:49.000 Yeah, no protests at his house.
01:10:50.000 Yeah, where's the right-wing response to this AG calling for the death of President Donald Trump?
01:10:56.000 What are we doing?
01:10:56.000 We're just mad on the internet talking about it.
01:11:00.000 Yeah.
01:11:02.000 I mean, to be fair, like.
01:11:07.000 What it sounds like you're implying, and I'm hoping that you'll correct me, is you're implying that there should be some kind of kinetic reaction.
01:11:13.000 Well, you would think that there would be, at minimum, a protest, which I would think was okay.
01:11:17.000 I don't want them calling for violence or any kind of physical action on the guy.
01:11:20.000 But you think there would be some at least basic response where they're protesting his house or they're doing these Democrat wake-up calls or whatever.
01:11:20.000 Of course not.
01:11:27.000 I don't think that it's, I don't think that expecting the right to act like the left is a realistic thing.
01:11:36.000 Like the right really needs something dramatic to get them out of the out of the house.
01:11:41.000 Because again, I honestly get stuff.
01:11:46.000 I don't want to call it a black pill because that implies an emotion.
01:11:51.000 But I think mathematically, looking at what's going on right now, the forecast is not good for the right in this conflict.
01:11:57.000 There's a combination of a lack of ideological fervor required for conflicts like this, lack of organization, and lack of self-awareness.
01:12:09.000 The left has got a bunch of zombie zealot retards, for sure, but cannon fodder is cannon fodder.
01:12:14.000 The right relies on government.
01:12:17.000 And I was talking about this earlier that in the American Revolution, the Americans were fighting for a dream, and the British were fighting partially with mercenaries for pay.
01:12:28.000 The people who were dispatched, the regulars, the Redcoats, weren't sitting here being like, I have a dream of a great British empire that must be preserved.
01:12:35.000 They were like, these are my orders, I guess.
01:12:40.000 Certainly there were some.
01:12:41.000 There was a Declaration of Independence.
01:12:42.000 They were loyalists in the United States.
01:12:43.000 But the Americans were very much like, we are going to have our freedom.
01:12:47.000 And there's all these profound, give me liberty or give me death.
01:12:51.000 You don't need to pay someone to fight for that.
01:12:53.000 So I see these conservatives post that leftists are being paid to do this or paid to do that.
01:12:59.000 And it's a fundamental misunderstanding of what the left represents.
01:13:02.000 They represent a zealous ideological fervor.
01:13:05.000 You need no money for that.
01:13:07.000 In fact, you can simultaneously convince these people to sacrifice their own lives and pay you while they do it.
01:13:14.000 That's how much they believe in what they're doing.
01:13:16.000 So the right continues to rely on machines that have failed them.
01:13:21.000 And that is, you can't even arrest Don Lennon, a guy who committed the crime on camera because the judges ideologically oppose you.
01:13:30.000 Because Trump doesn't have the plan or the mechanism to actually deal with enforcing the law in these ways.
01:13:36.000 Well, I mean, he doesn't really have the ability either.
01:13:39.000 The president can't just pull judges out.
01:13:41.000 Now, I'm not sure reporting is they're going to go for a grand jury indictment after the fact.
01:13:48.000 But good luck, I guess.
01:13:51.000 Yeah, I mean, it doesn't look good considering how deep the rot is in our judicial system.
01:13:58.000 The judicial system is the biggest problem we've got now.
01:14:01.000 Yeah, I mean, it's interesting because to Tim's point, and this is something I've thought about a lot in terms of the Revolutionary War, because the Americans were willing to do whatever it took, right?
01:14:10.000 They basically were pulling guerrilla warfare.
01:14:12.000 They were fighting on Christmas.
01:14:14.000 They were doing all of these things that were not part of the rules of warfare.
01:14:18.000 And the British soldiers were like, as you said, there were the Hessians.
01:14:21.000 They were getting paid.
01:14:22.000 They were out there doing what they were told to do.
01:14:24.000 They were, you know, fighting in the way that wars were fought.
01:14:30.000 And they weren't expecting a bunch of scrappy people with no food and eating their horses and all the rest of it to come at them so hard.
01:14:39.000 And we don't have conservatives willing to do that because conservatives are trying to maintain the status quo.
01:14:45.000 They're saying, we built this thing.
01:14:47.000 We'd like to keep the thing we built.
01:14:49.000 And the left is saying, really?
01:14:50.000 Well, we're just going to burn it down.
01:14:52.000 We're going to torch it.
01:14:54.000 And it's hard to fight something like that.
01:14:57.000 Because the left, like whatever happens for the left is a victory.
01:15:01.000 I'm going to jump to the street things.
01:15:02.000 Good.
01:15:02.000 Let's jump to the story.
01:15:04.000 We have this from Wall Street Mav.
01:15:05.000 Actually, it's from Lauder with Crowder.
01:15:07.000 Nick Sortor says the Trump badminton has ordered ICE not to arrest, quote, non-criminal illegals.
01:15:12.000 One of them actually said, quote, this feels like we have just referred to the Biden days.
01:15:17.000 Here's the report from Stephen Crowder and Nick Sortor.
01:15:21.000 One of the stories that I've unfortunately been hearing this morning is that Border Patrol agents have now been given new orders not to, for example, if they were to run a license plate and it comes back as that person is an illegal that Border Patrol was forced to let into the country under Joe Biden, they are no longer allowed to arrest that person.
01:15:45.000 And is this the first thing that's illegal?
01:15:47.000 Is this new information that you're just bringing to light right now, that these new orders?
01:15:52.000 Okay.
01:15:52.000 And I don't want you to reveal your sources, but you have someone who you trust on this.
01:15:57.000 You believe this is a matter of official actual approach and policy now.
01:16:01.000 This actually came from two Border Patrol agents, two separate Border Patrol agents on the ground in Minnesota.
01:16:07.000 They're very, very frustrated.
01:16:09.000 Obviously, they feel like one of them actually said that this feels like we just reverted to the Biden days.
01:16:17.000 And I want to stress that Nick had the report on Bovino getting pulled out before everybody else.
01:16:22.000 So I trust him.
01:16:23.000 I trust him on this reporting.
01:16:24.000 And this lines up with what we saw when Trump said that he's pulling Bovino.
01:16:29.000 There were reports that they were planning to withdraw CBP from Minneapolis.
01:16:34.000 And this is why many people are saying Trump has surrendered.
01:16:39.000 I don't see any evidence right now of Trump doing a strategic retreat and regrouping to go back in.
01:16:45.000 Everything suggests Trump is pulling out and backing down.
01:16:50.000 You know, two days ago, I couldn't think of any other outcome than that.
01:16:54.000 I just couldn't.
01:16:55.000 In my brain, I was like, any other outcome would be bloodshed that nobody wants except for the zealot street soldiers and the activists that are foreign paid or whatever.
01:17:04.000 But this is it.
01:17:05.000 This is the only outcome I could see was that, okay, well, we tried in Minneapolis.
01:17:08.000 It ain't happened in Minneapolis.
01:17:09.000 Move on to the next city.
01:17:10.000 And maybe we'll be back in Minneapolis in two years.
01:17:13.000 You know, there's a bunch of different ways to look at it.
01:17:16.000 And I don't know that I trust a Trump admin enough to give him the benefit of the doubt, especially after the Epstein files.
01:17:21.000 But if you wanted to, you could say, Trump's looking at the big picture.
01:17:25.000 Minneapolis is a hotspot that's generating a bunch of negative attention.
01:17:28.000 And this one flashpoint risks sabotaging his net positive support right now, which CBP and immigration operations Trump is enjoying a net positive support across many polls.
01:17:39.000 He may be thinking, we've got 60 operations going on across the country.
01:17:43.000 Let's not have this one drag us down in the press.
01:17:47.000 The things where it's going off without a hitch and quietly with no press, we will press and maintain.
01:17:52.000 Let's let this one die down.
01:17:53.000 That could be the strategy.
01:17:55.000 Again, just following the Epstein stuff and what we've seen from Trump in his first term, I don't know that I can give him the benefit of the doubt in that regard.
01:18:01.000 I think you're right, man.
01:18:03.000 I mean, I'll reiterate if you want me to.
01:18:04.000 I don't know.
01:18:05.000 What do you guys think about it?
01:18:06.000 I mean, like I said earlier, I don't know what the strategy is here.
01:18:11.000 I don't know if there is a strategy even.
01:18:13.000 I think that one of the things that I guess that I have a problem with Donald Trump about is a lot of times he just kind of is wishy-washy, depending on the polls and stuff.
01:18:21.000 And if he's getting polls that are saying that his favorability is going down too much because of this, he'll pull out.
01:18:28.000 He's not.
01:18:29.000 I mean, look, he had that nickname taco.
01:18:32.000 Trump always chickens out, you know?
01:18:35.000 And I hope that this isn't the case.
01:18:37.000 I mean, I want to see a lot more deportations, and particularly in Minnesota, where the government is clearly involved with preventing ICE from carrying out their job.
01:18:52.000 They got to do something about this, because if the federal government can't actually execute the law, you know, then other states are going to follow.
01:18:59.000 I suppose if I had to make a art, sorry, go ahead.
01:19:01.000 No, I just think the taco thing is overplayed.
01:19:05.000 I think a lot of times what you see when people start screaming taco is that he has negotiated to the position that he wanted.
01:19:13.000 You know, he just negotiates differently than, say, Obama, who's like, let me make all of these concessions before I come to the table.
01:19:19.000 But if the position that he wanted was just to get, you know, get some of them out, then.
01:19:19.000 Fair enough.
01:19:25.000 Well, with Greenland, for example, I think he got what he wanted.
01:19:28.000 Fair.
01:19:29.000 He got the land and he got control without having to do very much or outlay much cash other than building bases.
01:19:36.000 But this is one of his signature policies.
01:19:38.000 Like, deportations is one of the things that he ran on.
01:19:41.000 It's one of the reasons people voted for him.
01:19:43.000 Sure, no, I'm with you.
01:19:44.000 And I think that we do need to deport the criminal, illegal immigrants who are here.
01:19:49.000 I think illegal immigrants.
01:19:50.000 I think we need to deport a lot of the people who came in over the past four years.
01:19:54.000 I think that's really big.
01:19:55.000 We do have a secure border now.
01:19:57.000 And I think that one problem that we're going to have is if the Republicans lose in 2028, then we're going to have a situation where because Congress has not strengthened any of the immigration laws, has not done anything to secure the border past, you know, past just watching Trump do it, we could get a Democrat in there who just flings open the doors again.
01:20:20.000 So I think that a big part of the problem is not just that we're not doing enough right now.
01:20:25.000 And of course, more could always be done.
01:20:27.000 But I think a big part of the problem is that Congress is continuing to abdicate its responsibility to the White House.
01:20:32.000 And that's going to go very badly for America if the Republicans lose in 2028.
01:20:37.000 Yep.
01:20:38.000 I completely agree.
01:20:41.000 And it's not.
01:20:42.000 Why are they betraying us?
01:20:42.000 Where is Congress?
01:20:44.000 Well, because Congress was, Congress was never really on board.
01:20:49.000 The majority they have is razor thin.
01:20:52.000 And all it takes is two people to say, no, I'm not, you know, I'm not, I'm not down with this.
01:20:57.000 Because the Democrats almost always vote in lockstep.
01:21:01.000 And we're looking at another government shutdown this week, probably.
01:21:03.000 Yeah, I mean, Fetterman said that he won't vote for a shutdown.
01:21:06.000 Like he won't let, you know, but that's not.
01:21:08.000 The rest of the caucus probably will.
01:21:11.000 I love the Fetterman meme.
01:21:12.000 He got bongs on the noggin, and now his brain's working properly.
01:21:16.000 That guy's awesome.
01:21:18.000 Michael Malice called it, too.
01:21:20.000 Yeah, I thought it was going to be a bit more.
01:21:21.000 It's strange, but he says, he seems to say a lot of the right things, but he votes the wrong way.
01:21:25.000 Well, if he won't vote for a shutdown or what have you, then that's a positive.
01:21:30.000 But even still, it's not enough.
01:21:33.000 It's not enough to beat a filibuster.
01:21:39.000 I think Trump's known this for a while, and we've discussed on the show before that there's a realization.
01:21:44.000 I mean, guys, what's silver at?
01:21:45.000 110?
01:21:47.000 Gold's at 5,150.
01:21:50.000 I think Trump knows full well that the collapse of population is going to cook the American economy.
01:21:55.000 And many other countries are going to feel the exact same way.
01:21:57.000 And I think he's very much, you know, they read him the Riot Act.
01:22:03.000 You deport these illegal immigrants Biden brought in.
01:22:06.000 Economy crumbles and America falters kind of takes over.
01:22:08.000 And Trump was like, okay.
01:22:10.000 And so the ICE operations, they're not mass deporting millions.
01:22:14.000 They've gotten estimated in hard deportations, 300,000.
01:22:18.000 That's it.
01:22:19.000 And Trump's targeting the worst of the worst of criminals, which we all agree makes a lot of sense.
01:22:24.000 But I don't think Trump has any intention of going after run-of-the-mill illegals who are just taking jobs.
01:22:29.000 Yeah, I tend to agree with that because of his comments about, you know, oh, hospitality.
01:22:34.000 Remember, there's people who are here, we're going to let him stay because we need them.
01:22:37.000 And then he got backlash and then said, okay, no, no, we're going to walk that back.
01:22:40.000 But he's not.
01:22:41.000 Well, but that's what Tom Holman has been saying all along is we're going to deport the worst of the worst.
01:22:45.000 We're going to deport criminal, illegal immigrants, you know?
01:22:48.000 And the way that you end up with the deportations of people who are just hanging around is in the sanctuary cities where ICE agents have to go out and they've said, if we encounter people who are here illegally, we'll arrest them too.
01:23:00.000 But they're not going after the people who don't have criminal convictions or warrants or charges or what have you.
01:23:08.000 If they don't pass the SAVE Act and figure out a way to secure elections and they don't deport enough people, then the census in 2030 is going to be a mess.
01:23:20.000 And even if Republicans win but don't do these things, right?
01:23:25.000 So say the Republicans keep the House and they keep the Senate in 2026.
01:23:31.000 And then in 2028, JD Vance wins, but they don't do anything about the illegals that are here, then the census is going to be a shit show again.
01:23:40.000 And Democrats are going to roll in in 2032.
01:23:46.000 Well, and conservatives still don't have a network of mutual aid, et cetera, et cetera.
01:23:49.000 So then you have like a whole situation, right?
01:23:53.000 Wars are fought on soldiers' bellies.
01:23:56.000 You can always send someone some Bitcoin via the Rumble wallet.
01:23:59.000 That's a good network.
01:24:00.000 You could utilize that.
01:24:02.000 Do wars have to be fought on soldiers' bellies in the age of Ozimpic when no one eats anymore?
01:24:07.000 Yes.
01:24:07.000 Because calories matter.
01:24:09.000 That's it.
01:24:10.000 And, you know, people need to, I think many people would benefit from looking up past conflicts and current ones and take a look at what happened with the Arab Spring, especially.
01:24:24.000 Read the local reports in the history on, say, what happens to Syria, what happens to Aleppo.
01:24:29.000 Look at these photos of how beautiful Aleppo was.
01:24:31.000 And then after the Civil War, it's just rubble.
01:24:32.000 It's just wiped out.
01:24:33.000 So, you know, a lot of people commenting saying things like, try that in my town.
01:24:38.000 So.
01:24:39.000 Jason Aldean said that.
01:24:40.000 Sure did.
01:24:41.000 And let's say there is a real conflict that breaks out, like an actual civil war.
01:24:46.000 Will your small town be able to secure its points of, you know, its trade routes, its bridges, its waterways?
01:24:54.000 And where does your water come from?
01:24:56.000 So right now, a question for most of you is, where does your water come from?
01:25:00.000 I assume most conservatives can answer that question.
01:25:04.000 However, if you're suburban or urban and you're right-leaning, you probably don't know.
01:25:10.000 For most conservatives, actually quite easy.
01:25:11.000 You're well.
01:25:12.000 You probably got a well on your property.
01:25:14.000 Most people live in rural areas have wells.
01:25:15.000 Then the question is, is your groundwater secure and free from possible sabotage or contamination?
01:25:21.000 For rural areas where you're actively involved in conflict, I don't suspect that it's effective for any kind of left-wing group to go and try and sabotage 50 different wells.
01:25:30.000 But if you're in a suburb, they often have like water reclamation facilities and closed aquifers.
01:25:37.000 And like outside the Chicago area, there are these areas where they collect rainwater and there's areas, they have reservoirs and they block them off because they can be easily contaminated.
01:25:48.000 And so it actually happens quite a bit where kids are goofing off and then the police are like, stop, get away from there because it could be bad for the water supply.
01:25:56.000 Batman style, right?
01:25:57.000 When he was going to put the fear toxin in the water for everybody.
01:26:00.000 But the question is, can you defend where you are, but more importantly, do you have access to resources?
01:26:06.000 The benefit for conservatives is that they tend to have animals in rural areas.
01:26:09.000 You're going to have animals.
01:26:10.000 You can have access to drunk water.
01:26:11.000 Be more self-sufficient, but you're further away from everybody.
01:26:14.000 So it's easier to get isolated by a small group of insurgents.
01:26:18.000 And I just think take a look in those considerations, especially in suburbs.
01:26:22.000 A lot of suburbs tend to be, you know, somewhat right-leaning or at least a little bit more conservative, but still dependent on city infrastructure, which can be easily sabotaged.
01:26:31.000 I mean, look, there are a lot of people on the right that are aware of these things that you call them preppers or what have you.
01:26:39.000 But the venom, the vulnerabilities, they tend to be more than one person can handle.
01:26:47.000 So you do need to have some kind of network.
01:26:52.000 That's about all I'm going to say about that.
01:26:56.000 I have a water filter that I carry around with me.
01:26:58.000 It's called a, oh, geez, what are they called?
01:27:00.000 Cove Pure.
01:27:01.000 No, not that one.
01:27:02.000 Life straw.
01:27:03.000 Yeah, live straw, live straw in my backpack at all times.
01:27:06.000 Get a it's actually really scary that people don't know where their water comes from.
01:27:10.000 What's that?
01:27:11.000 It's scared me.
01:27:11.000 People don't know.
01:27:13.000 It's wild because 100 years ago, every single person knew where their water was coming from.
01:27:16.000 It's like the human phenomenon of no people not caring until it directly affects them.
01:27:21.000 Like, well, yeah.
01:27:22.000 So many things in life are just like, whatever.
01:27:25.000 And this person can't even name their mare, probably for their city.
01:27:27.000 I mean, oh, yeah, seriously.
01:27:29.000 Dude, I'll say this.
01:27:31.000 Like, there's a lot of people that when COVID went down, people were like running around, like, what am I going to do about this?
01:27:35.000 What am I going to do about that?
01:27:37.000 My life didn't change one bit.
01:27:39.000 Like, I went to Walmart and I was like, oh, wow, there's no toilet paper.
01:27:39.000 Right.
01:27:42.000 Good thing I got some at home.
01:27:44.000 Right.
01:27:44.000 Like, I actually got into a fist fight with an old lady over the last can of beans.
01:27:48.000 Knocked her ass out.
01:27:50.000 I thought you were going to say she got it.
01:27:51.000 The can flew in the air, caught it and ran.
01:27:52.000 No, I'm kidding.
01:27:53.000 We were fine.
01:27:55.000 You know, it's the crazy thing about being in the news 24-7, always, every single day watching the breaking news.
01:28:00.000 We knew it was going on before it even happened.
01:28:03.000 So I was covering the COVID outbreak in China before anyone in the United States even knew it existed.
01:28:08.000 Iraq.
01:28:09.000 You knew it as early as November then, right?
01:28:11.000 No, no, no, no.
01:28:12.000 It wasn't.
01:28:13.000 It was early January when people were collapsing on the street in viral videos in China.
01:28:17.000 And YouTube actually told us explicitly, you can't talk about this.
01:28:21.000 Yeah, that was.
01:28:21.000 It's weird.
01:28:22.000 And then they were like, you're not going to get banned for it, but we'll demonetize any video you make, which is like soft censorship.
01:28:27.000 And I was like, well, I'm not going to ignore this.
01:28:28.000 This is crazy.
01:28:30.000 There was a moment with the right when people that saw that stuff that we were panicking.
01:28:33.000 I was wanting to buy masks.
01:28:35.000 Yeah, I bought a mask.
01:28:36.000 Yeah.
01:28:36.000 People were sending me masks.
01:28:37.000 And then all of a sudden a month later, they're like, don't wear a mask.
01:28:39.000 And I was like, huh?
01:28:41.000 You sent me a box of masks.
01:28:42.000 And then people were saying all these people were dying and stuff.
01:28:44.000 And then you'd sit around, you look at the numbers, you're like, no, this shit makes sense.
01:28:47.000 It's actually not that bad.
01:28:48.000 No, I disagree.
01:28:48.000 I think it actually was substantially worse.
01:28:50.000 And I think the real conspiracies, they downplay the actual death.
01:28:54.000 So you think more people died in America from COVID than the World Cup.
01:28:58.000 In the World Cup.
01:29:00.000 Watch these videos from people who have, you know, I did a reaction video to one of these on the Tim Pool show channel.
01:29:00.000 Yeah.
01:29:05.000 There's a guy who's like, China's supposed to have over a billion people, yet all their city centers are empty.
01:29:11.000 Stores are closing.
01:29:12.000 The malls are empty.
01:29:14.000 They're lying about their population.
01:29:16.000 And I was like, I don't know.
01:29:17.000 Or 300 million people died.
01:29:18.000 They locked them in, or locked them in their houses.
01:29:22.000 Where we're at in West Virginia, we've been there for several years.
01:29:26.000 Since COVID, none of the businesses have recovered.
01:29:30.000 And so the question is, how?
01:29:33.000 I mean, at least by now, we need food for people.
01:29:33.000 How have they not recovered?
01:29:36.000 No, they're continually collapsing and they can't find employees to work jobs.
01:29:41.000 And so there's a bunch of arguments as to why it seems that people are gone.
01:29:46.000 One example I gave is on the 4th of July.
01:29:48.000 I think it was last year.
01:29:49.000 We went to Chicago and I drove through my neighborhood and there was nobody.
01:29:53.000 When I was a kid growing up on the south side of Chicago, every block, you'd walk down the block, look to your left, kids launching fireworks.
01:30:00.000 You'd walk to the next block, fireworks.
01:30:03.000 You go to Venom Park.
01:30:03.000 They're playing baseball.
01:30:05.000 There's folding chairs everywhere.
01:30:06.000 People are grilling.
01:30:07.000 Everyone's partying.
01:30:09.000 Explosions in the distance.
01:30:10.000 The next day, July 5th, we'd go walking down every street, picking up all the free fireworks left behind.
01:30:18.000 Last year I went, weeds growing in the baseball fields, soccer nets put up in the middle of them so you can't even play baseball anyway.
01:30:25.000 Nobody was playing soccer.
01:30:26.000 And I was asking my buddies, where is everybody?
01:30:28.000 And they're like, nobody goes outside anymore.
01:30:30.000 And I was like, no, no, no, hold on.
01:30:33.000 You can't just say they're on the internet because internet numbers have also gone down post-COVID.
01:30:40.000 During COVID, viewership was high.
01:30:42.000 It has normalized.
01:30:43.000 So we're simultaneously seeing no one going outside and we're not seeing the internet numbers where you'd expect them to be if people were just inside of the internet.
01:30:52.000 And so there's another element of this is that people didn't have kids.
01:30:55.000 So there are no kids to go outside and play.
01:30:58.000 And I think that a potential component as to why it's not just the U.S. where people are reporting, it seems like towns are empty.
01:31:06.000 And there's a bunch of new ghost towns forming.
01:31:07.000 Universities collapsing.
01:31:09.000 I think it may actually be that the initial predictions on COVID were true and they're just not, they don't want people to know.
01:31:18.000 I know, you think it's also like a culture change?
01:31:20.000 Like you see these Gen Zers, they don't, they reported today that Twin Peaks filed for Chapter 11.
01:31:25.000 Twin Peaks is like one of these Hooter adjacent restaurants and like it's filed for Chapter 11 because Gen Zers just don't go out anymore.
01:31:32.000 They don't engage in high-risk risky behavior.
01:31:34.000 They don't drink.
01:31:35.000 They don't smoke.
01:31:36.000 They don't, they're not having sex.
01:31:39.000 We're not seeing the online viewership numbers.
01:31:43.000 There's more content out there.
01:31:45.000 Like there's more people.
01:31:46.000 There is, but we're actually seeing viewership go down for everybody.
01:31:49.000 Aren't we having like a population collapse?
01:31:51.000 This is something that's not.
01:31:52.000 There's more than one kid.
01:31:54.000 So that's Gen Alpha.
01:31:55.000 So the question is, but millennials all the same.
01:31:58.000 So there was this video where it was a Chinese guy talking about China's supposed population of 1.4 billion.
01:32:04.000 Yet all of the major roadways are closed, like are empty.
01:32:08.000 Since COVID, it seems like there's nobody around anymore.
01:32:11.000 And that doesn't make sense for a country that has 1.4 billion.
01:32:15.000 So he said, I think China's lying about their population actually have 500 million.
01:32:21.000 And I'm like, or a lot of people are dead.
01:32:24.000 So you think that COVID just wiped out a ton of people?
01:32:26.000 I'm not saying I know for sure.
01:32:28.000 I'm saying it's an interesting idea.
01:32:29.000 We know that China was running crematoriums non-stop.
01:32:33.000 We have the satellite images, even CNN.
01:32:37.000 I did a big thing breaking this down.
01:32:38.000 CNN reported during COVID, China was running crematoriums 24-7.
01:32:42.000 You can see the smoke rising.
01:32:43.000 And during COVID, we had talked about it.
01:32:45.000 And it's not like this was never a big conspiracy that was happening.
01:32:49.000 Again, CNN reported China was running crematoriums 24-7.
01:32:52.000 And it particularly freaky as to why.
01:32:56.000 How do you explain the U.S. population?
01:32:58.000 What about it?
01:32:59.000 Well, like you're saying that viewership's down here, American, that would imply that there's less Americans now.
01:33:04.000 Indeed, we're seeing businesses close.
01:33:06.000 At least post-COVID, businesses haven't recovered.
01:33:07.000 What I'm saying is anecdotal because I'm in Texas.
01:33:09.000 I didn't see.
01:33:10.000 Anecdotally, I know three people that died of COVID personally.
01:33:15.000 I caught COVID twice.
01:33:17.000 I don't think I know anyone that I know that they were all boomers in my, they were like really.
01:33:22.000 There are businesses in the, in like western Maryland, Virginia, and the West Virginia area that have never recovered after from COVID.
01:33:30.000 They've shut down, never come back.
01:33:32.000 And there were businesses that did try to come back.
01:33:36.000 And then I don't want to single out anyone's private details, but there's a restaurant that closed and we used to eat there.
01:33:42.000 And I asked people, how did they go out of business?
01:33:44.000 I don't understand.
01:33:45.000 And they said, they couldn't find any staff.
01:33:48.000 They couldn't find anybody to work.
01:33:50.000 There was a restaurant I really liked and it went under too.
01:33:53.000 And then they switched and you could only get takeout and you couldn't sit down.
01:33:53.000 That was why.
01:33:58.000 There's also a friendly stuff doing breakfast.
01:34:01.000 Really?
01:34:01.000 Yeah.
01:34:02.000 Super, super, some high-end restaurants in our area announced they were just going under because they couldn't find people to work.
01:34:08.000 In our area, the Walmart stopped being 24-7.
01:34:10.000 Yeah.
01:34:11.000 They closed their 10.
01:34:12.000 I think we have seen signs of population collapse across the board post-COVID that isn't explained by people are just at home.
01:34:20.000 Well, and West Virginia is a state that people have been moving into.
01:34:23.000 Yeah.
01:34:24.000 More than out of.
01:34:26.000 Let's jump to this.
01:34:27.000 We'll get one more segment, and this is from Interactive Polls.
01:34:29.000 This is a hammer drop politically.
01:34:31.000 The 2030 census apportionment forecast update.
01:34:35.000 Take a look at this.
01:34:36.000 This actually is also just generally showing you net immigration.
01:34:40.000 So California is going to lose four, Oregons losing a seat.
01:34:43.000 And then you can look at Idaho, Utah, and Arizona gaining a seat.
01:34:46.000 You've got Minnesota, Wisconsin, and Illinois losing seats, only losing two.
01:34:49.000 New York losing two.
01:34:50.000 You've got PA losing one seat.
01:34:53.000 Look at that.
01:34:53.000 Texas gains four new seats.
01:34:56.000 Florida gains four.
01:34:57.000 Georgia gains one.
01:34:58.000 North Carolina gains one.
01:34:59.000 You can see everybody's fleeing.
01:35:01.000 You can see where they might leave.
01:35:02.000 U-Haul publishes every year they publish a report based on how many people are booking one-way trucks to a specific area.
01:35:10.000 And Texas had the top five cities or top four, I think.
01:35:13.000 It was like Austin, Dallas, Houston, and McKinney.
01:35:16.000 Man.
01:35:17.000 McKinney, Texas is northeast of Dallas.
01:35:20.000 It's a suburb.
01:35:20.000 Okay.
01:35:21.000 So, yeah, everybody's coming to Texas.
01:35:23.000 And I don't blame them.
01:35:24.000 Somebody's from Texas.
01:35:25.000 Poor Rhode Island losing a seat.
01:35:27.000 Are you born and raised in Texas?
01:35:28.000 No, from Illinois, Chicago.
01:35:29.000 Oh, you're from Chicago.
01:35:30.000 Yeah.
01:35:31.000 Lower East Side.
01:35:32.000 Did I know that?
01:35:32.000 Oh, yeah.
01:35:33.000 I probably knew that.
01:35:33.000 We probably talked about Port Pillow.
01:35:35.000 We probably talked about Portillos quite a bit.
01:35:36.000 Yeah.
01:35:37.000 We have Portillas in Texas now.
01:35:38.000 Yeah, because also another funny thing is that In-N-Out left California.
01:35:44.000 Right.
01:35:44.000 Oh, wow.
01:35:44.000 So they're in Tennessee, their headquarters in Tennessee.
01:35:46.000 And we're getting White Castle in Texas here soon.
01:35:49.000 Wow.
01:35:50.000 Yeah, everybody's coming to Texas.
01:35:51.000 West Virginia.
01:35:52.000 We need the mountains in Texas.
01:35:54.000 Well, I should say, I shouldn't say that.
01:35:55.000 We have hills.
01:35:56.000 We have hills and sand dunes.
01:35:58.000 But you have like lake countries, too.
01:36:00.000 I don't like, it is unfortunate.
01:36:02.000 I don't like Florida or Texas.
01:36:03.000 Texas is very boring.
01:36:04.000 It's very flat.
01:36:06.000 There's not a lot to do.
01:36:07.000 A lot of poker rooms and have sex and I guess backdoor poker rooms.
01:36:11.000 Thank you for that sex.
01:36:13.000 They got big billboards.
01:36:15.000 In Texas?
01:36:16.000 Gambling's illegal in Texas.
01:36:16.000 Texas?
01:36:17.000 Not poker rooms.
01:36:18.000 Texas.
01:36:19.000 Oh, like, okay.
01:36:20.000 Casinos are illegal.
01:36:21.000 Yeah.
01:36:21.000 Yeah.
01:36:21.000 Yes.
01:36:22.000 Yeah.
01:36:22.000 The Lodge Card Club, shout out.
01:36:24.000 Probably the most notable card room I would imagine anywhere.
01:36:28.000 And it's Texas, baby.
01:36:31.000 They keep trying to legalize casinos in Texas, and they just won't do it.
01:36:35.000 Well, you've got, what is it, WorldStar?
01:36:37.000 Not WorldStar.
01:36:38.000 What's the in Oklahoma, the biggest casino in the world?
01:36:42.000 Oh, I forget.
01:36:42.000 But they lobby against legalizing in Texas because they've hurt the colours.
01:36:45.000 Exactly.
01:36:46.000 The casinos on the border of Oklahoma, they suck.
01:36:48.000 I took the wife once and she was like, no, no, not that.
01:36:51.000 What's going on?
01:36:51.000 Not that one.
01:36:53.000 I've never been there, but it's apparently like miles wide.
01:36:56.000 Really?
01:36:56.000 I'll have to go look at that.
01:36:57.000 It's like on an Indian race.
01:36:59.000 Where do you fall on the pro-gambler or pro-casino?
01:37:02.000 I am anti-I'm actually ambivalent.
01:37:08.000 I think the problem with gambling expansion is that like the ubiquity breeds addiction.
01:37:13.000 But I also am not someone who thinks we should ban things based on someone else's addictions.
01:37:17.000 Otherwise, we'd be banning alcohol too.
01:37:19.000 I think a lot of conservatives are very moralistic and like gambling is bad.
01:37:25.000 You should never allow it.
01:37:25.000 And I'm like, well, a guy who gets off work and goes to the sports book with his buddies and puts 50 bucks down on his Super Bowl or something just to have a good time.
01:37:36.000 And that's all he does.
01:37:38.000 There's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
01:37:39.000 He's trying to get a little excitement on Friday night with the boys.
01:37:42.000 He's been occupied with work and he wants to, you know, he wants to feel that rush when he sees it coming in and he's bent on his money line.
01:37:50.000 He's like, yeah.
01:37:51.000 And it's just 50 bucks.
01:37:52.000 It's a problem when you see people.
01:37:55.000 I've heard stories, man.
01:37:56.000 There was a lady, she got arrested.
01:37:58.000 She mortgaged her house without her husband knowing and then took the money to a casino, lost it all in like a half an hour and then started having panic attacks.
01:38:06.000 I've heard stories about a guy who did the same thing and You see it all the time, man.
01:38:12.000 You go to these casinos and you wonder how it is.
01:38:15.000 I tell you, I wonder how it is.
01:38:16.000 I watch a guy at a craps table with 10 grand just playing craps.
01:38:21.000 And I'm like, what does this guy do?
01:38:23.000 Actually, I'll tell you a funny story.
01:38:24.000 We were at Hard Rock in Tampa this past weekend, me and my boy Robbie.
01:38:29.000 Shout out to Robbie Mann.
01:38:30.000 And we were in the high limit area.
01:38:33.000 And I was talking with one of the servers.
01:38:35.000 And she had brought a drink to Robbie.
01:38:38.000 And so we gave her a tip.
01:38:39.000 And she's like, oh, thank you.
01:38:41.000 And it was a good tip.
01:38:42.000 And then she was surprised by it, which I didn't think was actually that big of a tip.
01:38:46.000 And I asked her, I was like, do people in the high limit like not tip you?
01:38:49.000 And she's like, well, you'd be surprised.
01:38:52.000 And I was like, I guess not, because the perception is either they're rich snoots that don't actually want to give any money away and that's why they're rich.
01:38:58.000 That's actually not true.
01:38:59.000 The reality is the people who are playing in there are pretending to be rich.
01:39:05.000 They don't actually.
01:39:05.000 Yeah.
01:39:06.000 50K millionaire.
01:39:08.000 Yeah, I mean, I was playing at MGM in DC.
01:39:11.000 I was playing some poker and a guy sat down and it's one of the funniest experiences.
01:39:14.000 I love this stuff, man.
01:39:16.000 And he's throwing money around like a lunatic.
01:39:18.000 It's low stakes.
01:39:19.000 It's a $500 buy-in and that's low stakes.
01:39:22.000 And he makes a dumb bet, loses, and then he goes, you think I care?
01:39:26.000 And then he pulls out a wad of cash.
01:39:27.000 He's like, I got $10,000 right here.
01:39:30.000 And everyone goes, whoa.
01:39:32.000 And then I was like, wow, man.
01:39:33.000 And he goes, he's like, yeah, this money doesn't mean anything.
01:39:36.000 And he throws more bills on the table.
01:39:37.000 And he's like, buy me back in.
01:39:39.000 And then he kept doing that.
01:39:40.000 And then I was like, if you don't mind me asking, like, what do you do for a living?
01:39:43.000 And he goes, I'm an engineer.
01:39:45.000 I make $600,000 a year.
01:39:47.000 And it's like, okay, you know, you got money to spend, but $600,000 a year.
01:39:53.000 I mean, so he's, if it taxes, maybe he's doing $30K a month take home.
01:39:58.000 He's living in DC, which can be moderately expensive, but he might have like $15,000 disposable income every month to go and throw around three, four grand at a poker table.
01:40:08.000 But you can't do that every day.
01:40:09.000 You can't do that every weekend.
01:40:11.000 It's something where this guy probably shows up once every other month to dump three grand and pretend that he's ultra wealthy.
01:40:17.000 Super rich people.
01:40:19.000 The story is that Bill Gates walked into a casino, put $20 on blackjack, lost, and went, I'm done, and walked out.
01:40:25.000 Like he didn't need to play.
01:40:26.000 So anyway, the point is, I find that you go to these casinos, most people don't have the money to play at these levels, and it's insane that they do.
01:40:36.000 So like there's a game.
01:40:38.000 Are you familiar at all with casino games or anything like that?
01:40:40.000 Do you know what Mississippi stud is?
01:40:40.000 Yeah.
01:40:42.000 I don't.
01:40:42.000 Mississippi stud, we call them carnival games.
01:40:45.000 You will ante.
01:40:46.000 So let's say it's a $10 minimum.
01:40:48.000 You put $10 down.
01:40:49.000 Dealer gives you two cards.
01:40:50.000 You look at them.
01:40:51.000 If they're good, you can bet $10 for them to reveal a third card.
01:40:55.000 If you like it, you can bet again.
01:40:58.000 He'll flip over a fourth card, then a fifth card.
01:41:00.000 Give me a five-card poker.
01:41:01.000 And you get Jacks are better.
01:41:02.000 You win money.
01:41:03.000 So the way it works is, let's say you get dealt Ace King if you put 10 bucks down.
01:41:07.000 You look down at Ace King.
01:41:08.000 You pay $10 more and they'll flip over the next card.
01:41:08.000 It's good.
01:41:11.000 Let's say they flip over an ace.
01:41:12.000 You have a pair of aces.
01:41:13.000 You're a winner.
01:41:14.000 So then you can triple up the next two spots because you know you've already won.
01:41:18.000 That's the game, right?
01:41:19.000 So $10 means if you want to play a full hand at minimum, it's $40.
01:41:26.000 At maximum, it's $100.
01:41:28.000 Who the is betting $100 a hand?
01:41:31.000 A hand takes 20 seconds.
01:41:33.000 Then you go to some of these casinos like MGM or you go to Hard Rock, Tampa.
01:41:38.000 I mean, literally any casino.
01:41:40.000 And we're there on Saturday night and the minimum is $25.
01:41:43.000 That means at minimum, one hand is $100.
01:41:47.000 At maximum, $250.
01:41:50.000 Who the is sitting down and being like, I can play a 20-second game for $250 consistently for the next hour?
01:41:58.000 I don't get it, man.
01:41:59.000 That stuff makes no sense to me.
01:42:01.000 It's degenerate behavior.
01:42:02.000 I think what people are doing is, and you can see this the way the casinos do their tier structures or reward structures.
01:42:10.000 It looks to me based on like the hard rock tier structures, they expect most people to play like once every four months.
01:42:18.000 It's ridiculously easy to get status with hard rock.
01:42:21.000 Seems like their players are largely tourists who fly in, lose their money instantly, and just leave right away.
01:42:25.000 And then you look at the pen casinos for which they're the second biggest casino network.
01:42:29.000 It's ridiculously hard to get status.
01:42:31.000 They expect you to be a regular who lives in PA who goes every day to the casino and grinds money or something.
01:42:37.000 So anyway, long story short, casinos are bad that we're expanding them so rapidly.
01:42:41.000 I got no problem with like, oh, there's a casino, a couple hours drive, and you go there and you have fun.
01:42:45.000 But it is getting pretty terrifying that we have a gambling economy, especially Gen Z is just Gen Z is becoming just enthralled with gambling.
01:42:54.000 Oh, yeah, this prediction companies, there's like prediction betting is huge.
01:42:57.000 Even in politics, like you can bet on the outcomes of races and stuff.
01:43:00.000 I mean, here's a crazy thing.
01:43:02.000 This is the future economy.
01:43:03.000 It's the prediction economy.
01:43:05.000 We have an attention economy right now.
01:43:07.000 But if you are someone who's smart, this is going to be really weird.
01:43:11.000 So the people who watch Timcast IRL can probably become millionaires off of any prediction market.
01:43:17.000 If you watch this show every single night, I'll put it like this.
01:43:20.000 If you watch every video I make, you are going to be on the forefront of what is happening in news.
01:43:27.000 You'd then go to a prediction market.
01:43:29.000 And if they're saying something like, will Donald Trump do a backflip or whatever?
01:43:33.000 And you can be like, wait a minute.
01:43:35.000 I was just, it says 60% yes.
01:43:37.000 I literally just watched Tim Poole show a statement from Trump saying tomorrow at 9 a.m. I'll do a backflip.
01:43:42.000 I'm buying yes.
01:43:43.000 And then Trump does it because you're paying attention to the news.
01:43:46.000 I talked about this with stock trading.
01:43:48.000 Like if I hired someone to trade stock based on the news reports we covered, I'd be a billionaire right now.
01:43:54.000 Because like, so for example, when Elon was buying X and the Tesla stock collapsed, I'm like, that makes no sense.
01:44:01.000 Tesla's doing great.
01:44:02.000 The media, people are just selling the stocks are scared about Elon making a risky venture on X.
01:44:07.000 So I bought a ton of Tesla stock.
01:44:09.000 Paid out handsomely.
01:44:11.000 So these prediction markets, I think we're going to find is there's right now, I guarantee you, we're on the verge of seeing a ton of Gen Z influencers who literally just can understand what's likely to occur and they bet on it and they win.
01:44:26.000 And there's going to be jobs rooted in, and the AI is going to track it, predictions.
01:44:30.000 Human networks that predict things, the AI then puts that in its machine.
01:44:34.000 Yeah, I was going to say, wouldn't it just be easier to just defeat all these videos and like all this into AI and have the AI like make bets based off of what's going on?
01:44:42.000 I'm sure for now it's not really capable of doing it, but it's the inverse.
01:44:45.000 It's that the prediction markets are the wisdom of the crowd determining the probability of an event to occur.
01:44:51.000 And that is fed into the AI and the AI then can utilize that for assessments on whatever their plan is or what they want to do.
01:44:59.000 You know what I think I don't like about gambling because I do kind of like gambling.
01:45:03.000 It's fun is online gambling.
01:45:07.000 The accessibility to it, like, because they could easily someone could develop an app where it's just a big red button and every time you press it, there's a 49% chance you double it and a 51% chance that it goes to zero.
01:45:20.000 And it's directly tied to your bank account.
01:45:20.000 That exists.
01:45:22.000 And everyone over 18 might have it.
01:45:24.000 You just hit there and slam the button over and over until your account either says plus or minus.
01:45:28.000 What's it called?
01:45:29.000 So all of these online apps have a game where it's zero to 100 and then you can change the range for the payout.
01:45:41.000 So you can put it at 1 through 25.
01:45:44.000 And when you press the button, if the RNG hits 1 through 25, you'll win 3 to 1 or whatever.
01:45:50.000 And so people literally just mash the button and then you see it go 43, 17, 16, 81.
01:45:56.000 And they're going, yes.
01:45:56.000 And their minds went, I think I've seen that.
01:46:01.000 In those situations, they have to deposit money into an account with that service in order to use it.
01:46:05.000 Well, it's technically yes, but if it's crypto-based, they're basically using their address and just having them.
01:46:11.000 That's risky.
01:46:12.000 Because you want to create friction for vices in general.
01:46:16.000 Adults can handle them in moderation, but for kids to go out there and just be like, smash, like lose, and then they lose.
01:46:23.000 And especially if it's directed to your paycheck and it's like auto-deducted, you've got to be careful.
01:46:27.000 There are these prominent gambling influencers where you only ever see their big wins.
01:46:33.000 And the perception created, and the casinos love it, is that you can be a winner too.
01:46:37.000 But these slots, these machines, they don't work this way.
01:46:41.000 It's funny, I watch these videos where some guy's like, I'm going to be betting $2,000 a spin.
01:46:45.000 And then they hit the million dollar win.
01:46:46.000 And it's like, yeah, that doesn't happen.
01:46:48.000 So there's one theory that it's all rigged and fake.
01:46:52.000 One theory is that what will happen is an influencer will go to the casino and say, I want to make a video where I play baccarat and win a bunch of money or lose a bunch of money.
01:46:59.000 They'll hand the chips to you.
01:47:01.000 You'll film the hand, win, they'll give you the chips.
01:47:04.000 You go, yeah, I won.
01:47:05.000 Here your chips back.
01:47:05.000 Camera's off.
01:47:07.000 So you never actually had the money.
01:47:08.000 Or you lose, never actually had the money.
01:47:10.000 Or they point you to machines that they have set to win better.
01:47:15.000 The argument is that typically they say slot machines are all regulated.
01:47:19.000 They have to pay out based on RNG.
01:47:22.000 No one believes that.
01:47:23.000 No one.
01:47:25.000 That makes no sense because the argument would then be a casino would buy a slot machine and then at the moment they put it in, you hit a button and win a million dollars.
01:47:34.000 Well, how is the casino going to pay out that million dollars if they just got the machine in there?
01:47:39.000 So the assumption people make is the machine has to take in a certain amount of money before it can pay out.
01:47:45.000 Now, the legitimate argument is no, the casinos have to have a cash reserve for the potential for any payout before offering up any wagering.
01:47:52.000 Makes sense, right?
01:47:53.000 Talk to any slot manager or slot dealer, and they tell me the same thing every time.
01:47:58.000 The new machines never pay out.
01:48:00.000 It takes a few months before the people hit jackpots.
01:48:02.000 Same thing every time.
01:48:03.000 I was at, we were at Tampa on the high limit slots, this guy, he puts in five grand and he's like, I'm going to show you guys something.
01:48:10.000 And he puts in five grand to a Huff and Puff and he just he hits it.
01:48:13.000 10 minutes later, all gone.
01:48:16.000 His money was gone.
01:48:17.000 And Undy goes, he says, you got to play this machine right now.
01:48:20.000 So I sit down, I put in $100, I hit the button twice, $10 spins, I won $2,200.
01:48:26.000 Because the assumption people have is the machines are programmed to take in a certain amount before they can pay out a lesser amount.
01:48:35.000 Now, we're told by the gaming commissions and everybody, that's not correct.
01:48:38.000 It doesn't work that way, but it certainly seems to appear that way to literally everybody who gambles.
01:48:43.000 Is the code proprietary?
01:48:45.000 Are you familiar?
01:48:46.000 Oh, yeah, it's all proprietary.
01:48:47.000 Yeah, a lot of machines are Konami machines.
01:48:49.000 Yeah.
01:48:50.000 I don't trust any of it.
01:48:51.000 Konami machines?
01:48:51.000 Yeah, Konami, the gaming company.
01:48:54.000 The Pachinko machines.
01:48:56.000 Pachinko machines.
01:48:57.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:48:58.000 So there's also, like we talked about in Mississippi, a lot of casinos don't, very rarely do you see hand shuffle for table games.
01:49:06.000 In Vegas, it was the way they dealt it was they have a shuffle master shuffles the deck, pulls it out, then they cut the deck.
01:49:15.000 However, for a lot of these games, the machine will auto shuffle and the machine knows exactly how many players are at the table.
01:49:22.000 So it'll spit out the first hand, he'll hand it to you.
01:49:25.000 It'll spit out second hand, he'll hand it to you.
01:49:27.000 And then it'll spit out the third hand, he'll hand it to you.
01:49:29.000 It'll spit out the fourth hand, and it'll press the button, and it'll spit the whole deck out.
01:49:32.000 That tells the machine three players.
01:49:35.000 The presumption people have, again, maybe it's a conspiracy, is that I put the argument like this.
01:49:41.000 If it is legal for a slot machine to pay out only at 90%, meaning they can control the outcome, it's not random, why would it not be legal for shuffle machines to rig the shuffling of the decks to guarantee they only pay out at 90%?
01:49:56.000 You're saying it is legal for the slot machines to pay out at 90%?
01:50:00.000 It is the standard that slot machines pay out.
01:50:02.000 You can check.
01:50:03.000 Every state has a different number based on their gaming commission.
01:50:06.000 Vegas is considered to be the best.
01:50:08.000 They have machines that are on a 99% payout.
01:50:10.000 That means for every $100 that goes in, 99 goes out.
01:50:13.000 You're hoping to be that person who puts in the dollar and wins the 99, right?
01:50:18.000 And that's the norm for slot machines.
01:50:21.000 The argument for games like Blackjack, when there's a big auto shuffler, but they cut that.
01:50:25.000 It's a lot harder.
01:50:27.000 And Blackjack's probably one of the safest games.
01:50:29.000 But for games like Ultimate Hold'em, four-card poker, where a machine deals the hands out, it would be really easy for the machine, knowing how many players are at the table because of how many hands go out, to routinely determine the proper shuffling of a deck to make sure the casino wins or only pays out 10% of the money that comes in.
01:50:48.000 And like for one hand, I mean, the code could shift for a hand if it's remote.
01:50:54.000 There's two decks.
01:50:55.000 So the way it works is the next hand is already shuffled when this hand is being played.
01:51:00.000 The deck goes in, it eats the machine, and then it spits out the next cards.
01:51:03.000 So it's already pre-loaded.
01:51:05.000 The other thing to understand is that random doesn't exist in computer code.
01:51:09.000 There are ways to simulate it using static, for instance, but it's typically an algorithm to simulate RNG, which means, to be fair, it's not really random when a machine shuffles a deck, but they're probably using hash codes that generate 15 billion potential shuffle orders.
01:51:27.000 So you're technically getting RNG.
01:51:29.000 I want to get really good at rolling dice because there's nothing random.
01:51:33.000 You're throwing a thing that's not.
01:51:34.000 Skillshotting dice is possible.
01:51:36.000 And that's why casinos have added ridges on the back of craps tables and require the dice to hit the back wall.
01:51:42.000 If you throw about three times without hitting the wall, they'll tell you you have to hit the wall.
01:51:46.000 Otherwise, they're going to stop you from rolling.
01:51:49.000 So you'll watch any, I don't want to say pro, because it's not really a game you get pro at.
01:51:54.000 Craps is fairly random, but they line the dice up a specific way and they throw it a certain way because you can skill shot dice.
01:52:00.000 Yeah.
01:52:01.000 It's too stressful, man.
01:52:02.000 That's stressful enough.
01:52:02.000 I play Arc Raiders.
01:52:04.000 I used to trade crypto in the day.
01:52:06.000 That was a lot of stress.
01:52:08.000 Well, your own money is coming in and going out.
01:52:10.000 Crypto is basically printing money.
01:52:11.000 It's so easy to get rich off crypto.
01:52:13.000 Especially if you read the white papers.
01:52:15.000 It is.
01:52:15.000 You see them coming ahead of time.
01:52:16.000 You're like, at least this was like 2018 when I was doing that.
01:52:20.000 It's memes.
01:52:21.000 It's ridiculous.
01:52:22.000 Like, this is why, oh, there's a funny story.
01:52:24.000 Did you see the guy who launched a token and then rugged the first guy who bought a dollar?
01:52:29.000 That was so good.
01:52:32.000 Launched a coin, a guy, bought one dollar, and then he rugged him.
01:52:34.000 Get a whole dollar.
01:52:36.000 We got to go to Rumble Rants and chat.
01:52:37.000 So smash the like button.
01:52:39.000 Share the show with every person you've met in your life.
01:52:41.000 You can follow me on X and Instagram and Tim Cast, all that good stuff.
01:52:44.000 Let's see what you guys have going on in these chats.
01:52:47.000 Shane H. Wilder says, as a Texan trying to get home on a delayed flight from D.C., I want to remind all Texans that congressional special general runoff elections are this Saturday.
01:52:56.000 Go vote.
01:52:56.000 Go vote.
01:52:57.000 Yeah.
01:52:58.000 Big one.
01:53:00.000 Oh, Midwest says, with the overwhelming evidence coming out of Minnesota with SignalGate, what was the point of designating Antifa a terrorist organization, especially to the degree of how they're operating, they're not being black.
01:53:11.000 What is it?
01:53:12.000 They're trying not to be black belt.
01:53:14.000 I think Trump surrendered.
01:53:16.000 I think Trump is largely like, look, just don't put me in prison.
01:53:20.000 Somebody last week who was the guest on Friday, he was saying, Trump's a, or somebody, so Trump's a populist.
01:53:25.000 And I think he was right.
01:53:28.000 You might say he doesn't really, he's not really appealing to his base.
01:53:31.000 The base got him in.
01:53:31.000 He doesn't really care.
01:53:32.000 Now he's in.
01:53:33.000 Now he just wants to be liked.
01:53:34.000 Not just, but it's important to him.
01:53:36.000 That's always been important.
01:53:37.000 Appeals to the masses.
01:53:38.000 The idea that you could ever appease the left at this point is ridiculous, though.
01:53:43.000 And I hope there's someone around him that's like, look, you need to do what you're going to do, and you need to take the idea of appeasing the left and them actually just letting you live out your life afterwards and throw that idea out because they're not going to.
01:54:01.000 They are absolutely not going to.
01:54:03.000 I mean, there are people that are talking, like, there's a guy that's talking about, you know, throwing him in jail and making sure that he gets killed for what?
01:54:09.000 Nobody knows.
01:54:10.000 But, you know, that's right.
01:54:12.000 You know, but he's sure he's going to do it.
01:54:15.000 The days of amicable politics are gone.
01:54:20.000 And the right needs to realize that because the left is absolutely aware of it.
01:54:25.000 And they're going to start, they're going to be looking to put people in jail when this administration's out.
01:54:30.000 It's not enough to just say, hey, we're going to win our next election.
01:54:32.000 We're going to get it this time.
01:54:34.000 We're going to kill our opponent.
01:54:35.000 Yeah.
01:54:35.000 Well, I mean, that's true.
01:54:36.000 It's like, it's like we, we, we literally have devolved to banana republic style politics.
01:54:44.000 Like this is, this is third world shit.
01:54:47.000 That's the way that the Democrats are behaving now.
01:54:49.000 But don't you think if Trump works with them a little bit, a little communism will be okay?
01:54:54.000 Like we can finally make it work right?
01:54:56.000 No, you're triggering you.
01:54:58.000 Yeah.
01:54:59.000 Ian was an epiphany earlier.
01:54:59.000 I was trying to.
01:55:02.000 We were outside and he was just like, now that I think about it, I think it would be good if we had no borders and kids were getting sex changes.
01:55:08.000 I think about that every day.
01:55:10.000 Yeah.
01:55:10.000 You think about this.
01:55:12.000 Yeah, constantly.
01:55:12.000 I can't get it out of my brain.
01:55:14.000 That's why I brought it up to Tim.
01:55:15.000 No, just kidding.
01:55:17.000 But I have prayed for a world with no borders.
01:55:20.000 If we were all one unified nation, but decentralized, like the way that Texas and Ohio are unified, you know?
01:55:27.000 Tell me you've never been to Eritrea without telling me you've never been to Eritrea.
01:55:31.000 I've never been to that place you were talking about.
01:55:33.000 I love it.
01:55:33.000 It's like every time there's some hippie liberal who's like, we should just have like one world and no borders.
01:55:38.000 I'm like, tell me you've never been to Honduras without telling me you've never been to Honduras.
01:55:42.000 Do you think the U.S. is only awesome because the rest of the world sucks?
01:55:45.000 No offense, rest of the world, because you don't all suck.
01:55:47.000 But it's only like if everybody was like the U.S., we wouldn't be that great.
01:55:51.000 You think the U.S. is awesome because you have American values.
01:55:53.000 You have Christian traditional values.
01:55:56.000 But somebody who's from like, you know, Somalia where corruption is really high.
01:56:02.000 Yeah.
01:56:05.000 They're like, this country is awesome because I can take whatever I want.
01:56:07.000 And these people are like, I was cracking up this girl went to Syria to open up a coffee shop where Syrians could be whatever they want.
01:56:12.000 They can have freedom and all this stuff.
01:56:13.000 She goes to Syria.
01:56:14.000 She uses her entire life savings to open up this coffee shop.
01:56:17.000 She gets lawyers to sign on a contract for a place to rent and like furniture and everything.
01:56:22.000 And it went great for like, I think like a week.
01:56:25.000 And then she comes to find out that everything was fake.
01:56:28.000 Everything was fraudulent.
01:56:29.000 She got completely ripped off.
01:56:31.000 She ended up getting arrested because the police colluded with the other people and she spent some time in jail.
01:56:37.000 Like she lost her entire life savings because she didn't realize like this Syrian culture was like very like there's a lot of fraud that goes on or she lost everything.
01:56:46.000 How about this couple?
01:56:47.000 No, no, no.
01:56:48.000 I was gonna say like you don't realize like open borders sounds really great, but a lot of these cultures people don't know how to deal with them.
01:56:54.000 You go to another place and you can't you can't exist.
01:56:56.000 You remember the couple that wanted to ride their bikes around the world to show that people weren't so different and they got beheaded in Tajikistan?
01:57:03.000 Or the really popular thing.
01:57:04.000 Yeah, and the really popular thing is these white women go to India.
01:57:06.000 They're like, oh, I'm going to go to India and show how great this is.
01:57:09.000 And then they get assaulted.
01:57:10.000 Right.
01:57:11.000 And they get gang raped on a bus.
01:57:12.000 Yeah.
01:57:13.000 But there's all these like American women who are like, oh, I'm going to move to some faraway place.
01:57:16.000 And they get there and then they start sending videos home.
01:57:18.000 Like there was this, I think it was a black woman moved to some country in Africa and she was all very excited about it.
01:57:24.000 And she was like, no, don't do this.
01:57:26.000 Don't do this.
01:57:27.000 I'm American and now I'm stuck here.
01:57:29.000 I can't get home.
01:57:30.000 And this is not my culture.
01:57:32.000 You know, America is my culture.
01:57:34.000 I think that I think we do have a false perception.
01:57:36.000 And I think this is part of the problem with open borders and with mass migration is that we assume that people who come here are going to share our same values and we don't realize that we are basically just fish who don't know what water is because we're swimming in it.
01:57:49.000 Have you seen it?
01:57:49.000 And it's not, these are not universal values.
01:57:51.000 I get into this argument with my mother all the time who's like, she's a staunch leftist.
01:57:56.000 And I'll be like, mom, you just think that everyone has these same values.
01:57:59.000 These values are earned.
01:58:00.000 We worked hard for these values and we worked hard to build a civilization with these values.
01:58:04.000 They don't just happen naturally.
01:58:07.000 You have to fight for it.
01:58:08.000 You know, question: Have you traveled a lot internationally?
01:58:10.000 A couple, yeah, I've been to South America for a few couple months.
01:58:14.000 Uh, Peru and Chile, I was in the jungle a little bit in Peru.
01:58:16.000 And then I was in Scotland.
01:58:17.000 I went to Edinburgh and I was in Paris a little bit.
01:58:20.000 Okay, so in Canada.
01:58:21.000 Have you found any countries particularly more dangerous than the others?
01:58:24.000 Chile was interesting.
01:58:25.000 There are feds on every not every street corner, but the feds were patrolling the street corners.
01:58:29.000 I felt that was putting my safety at risk because if the federal government turned on me, I'm like, there's nowhere to hide in this country.
01:58:35.000 But no, to answer your question bluntly, no, they all kind of felt the same.
01:58:38.000 They were all like liberal, left-leaning, homogeneous.
01:58:42.000 This is the issue I think.
01:58:43.000 Oh, no, no, the jungle was by far the most dangerous.
01:58:46.000 The jungle is like your pocket will get picked if you turn your back.
01:58:49.000 Dude would swim out into the river where people are canoeing with a machete and board their canoe and like you take them, you know, would you open your borders to those types of people?
01:58:59.000 No, no, I'm not an open borders guy.
01:59:01.000 Oh, okay.
01:59:01.000 I just have a fantasy about in the future one day, maybe we can have a United States of Earth or something.
01:59:05.000 Let's make started all the undesirables, we can open all the borders, sure.
01:59:08.000 Or make them more desirable.
01:59:10.000 You can't see George Williams stuff talking, man.
01:59:13.000 In order to graduate high school, we drop you in the woods for two weeks.
01:59:19.000 Boy Scouts.
01:59:21.000 No, it wasn't the Cub Scouts.
01:59:22.000 I didn't think of Boy Scouts.
01:59:23.000 We dropped you in the middle of the woods.
01:59:24.000 That's what the Boy Scouts is like.
01:59:26.000 Okay, maybe three days.
01:59:27.000 I think two weeks is good, though.
01:59:29.000 And we'll monitor your vitals.
01:59:32.000 And if you're about to die, we'll pull you out.
01:59:34.000 These are like Native American rites of passage.
01:59:37.000 That's right.
01:59:37.000 Because what happens now is we have all these hippie-dippy morons being like, why can't we just let everybody in?
01:59:43.000 It's like, because that guy wants to cut your head off.
01:59:46.000 And he's literally like, there is literally a fence and he's snarling and waving a machete saying he's going to chop your head off.
01:59:53.000 And you're like, but can't we just, I mean, just imagine.
01:59:57.000 You know what we need, Ian?
01:59:58.000 We got Rumble Shorts launching soon, and we need to get a video producer to do these one-minute, these minute-and-a-half stories.
02:00:04.000 Because the perfect analogy here is there's two guys, and one guy's like wearing a blue shirt and the other guy's wearing a red hat.
02:00:10.000 And the guy in the blue shirt's like, I'm just saying, like, why don't we let them in?
02:00:14.000 They need help.
02:00:15.000 And then the guy goes, because it's dangerous.
02:00:18.000 And he goes, that's racist.
02:00:20.000 There's nothing dangerous.
02:00:21.000 It's literally zombies going, he's hungry.
02:00:25.000 There was this old.
02:00:26.000 He eats votes.
02:00:27.000 It's you.
02:00:27.000 It's not his vote.
02:00:28.000 Splash.
02:00:29.000 It's not his fault.
02:00:29.000 He eats Flash.
02:00:30.000 There was this old British show.
02:00:31.000 It's a different way of life.
02:00:32.000 You know, I can't remember.
02:00:34.000 There was an old British show.
02:00:35.000 I can't remember the name.
02:00:35.000 Somebody will know it.
02:00:36.000 But like, they used to send this guy to foreign countries and he hated traveling.
02:00:40.000 And he just had to like travel this foreign country.
02:00:43.000 He was like, he was miserable.
02:00:44.000 He had a horrible time.
02:00:46.000 We did a show where we take like the biggest hippie left-wing person.
02:00:50.000 They're all pro-opening.
02:00:51.000 They won't do it.
02:00:51.000 And send them to a horrible state.
02:00:54.000 I just stay there for like five days.
02:00:56.000 I don't see their opinion when they come.
02:00:58.000 I have offered to pay for people's trips to Gaza and they won't do it.
02:01:02.000 The moment I say fully paid round trip to Gaza, they stop responding.
02:01:08.000 I'm sure there's a leftist out there that will do this.
02:01:09.000 You got to figure it out.
02:01:10.000 It would be hilarious.
02:01:11.000 They go watch this.
02:01:12.000 Ha, you think I wouldn't take that?
02:01:14.000 I'm like, agreed.
02:01:14.000 Here are my terms.
02:01:15.000 When do you want to go?
02:01:16.000 And they go, well, I can't go.
02:01:18.000 I'm like, uh-huh.
02:01:19.000 Yeah.
02:01:20.000 How about Morocco?
02:01:22.000 No.
02:01:22.000 What's going on in Morocco?
02:01:23.000 It's extremely dangerous.
02:01:25.000 West Africa.
02:01:26.000 Not me.
02:01:27.000 How about South Africa?
02:01:28.000 Nope.
02:01:29.000 Don't go there.
02:01:30.000 I just heard of the experts.
02:01:32.000 Nope.
02:01:32.000 South Africa.
02:01:33.000 Nope.
02:01:33.000 Don't go there.
02:01:35.000 The jungle might still be cool if you want to go.
02:01:35.000 Yep.
02:01:38.000 How about Rhodesia?
02:01:39.000 I'm good without any of that.
02:01:41.000 Rhodesia.
02:01:42.000 Zimbabwe.
02:01:44.000 What about China?
02:01:45.000 But yeah, we got to get these short little fans.
02:01:49.000 I wrote that one.
02:01:49.000 I just wrote a lot.
02:01:50.000 Because that's an easy little one-minute thing where it's like, but he's hungry.
02:01:54.000 And a few people to put it in their faces like zombies.
02:01:59.000 Riley Butt says, Tim, Reculture and Civil War.
02:02:01.000 What is your position, soldier, propagandist, general?
02:02:05.000 Why are you not a valid target in said war, praying everyone stay safe?
02:02:09.000 I'm a target before the war.
02:02:12.000 They're trying to kill me now.
02:02:15.000 So, you know, what do you mean?
02:02:17.000 What's my position?
02:02:19.000 I don't know.
02:02:19.000 Whatever it needs to be.
02:02:22.000 I think that the fighting will be done by actual fighters, but I would argue that people like me are substantially better strategists than most of the Libtards.
02:02:32.000 So, you know, it depends.
02:02:35.000 It really depends.
02:02:37.000 I'm absolutely certain.
02:02:39.000 I'm absolutely certain.
02:02:41.000 Nay, I am so confident that when all order breaks down and people are fighting in the streets, the people are going to beg for some dude to sit in a room and complain about stuff to them.
02:02:52.000 They're going to say, listen, I'm starving to death.
02:02:54.000 I'm thirsty, but I really just want to hear you complain.
02:02:57.000 And I'll be like, well, I got you.
02:03:00.000 Do you have water or do you have the most recent upload from Timpool?
02:03:05.000 I am under no illusions that what I do will be important if society breaks down.

02:05:34.000 Do you guys think that Alex Preddy is looking up right now and feeling any kind of regret over what he's done?
02:05:43.000 He's a regretful SIG owner.
02:05:45.000 That's for sure.
02:05:46.000 He's regretting buying that.
02:05:48.000 Should have bought the Glock, should have bought the braids are too heavy, and he can't find a spotter.
02:05:53.000 There's a really funny ad.
02:05:54.000 He can't find a spot.
02:05:56.000 There's a really funny ad.
02:05:58.000 There's a company that has an app where you get IQ, you do IQ tests.
02:06:02.000 And I play a lot of puzzle games on my phone.
02:06:05.000 I like the, you know, playing strategy and puzzle games.
02:06:07.000 And I'm getting these ads.
02:06:09.000 And I don't know.
02:06:11.000 I don't know if these families have agreed to be in these ads, but it's like they do these TikTok dances, right?
02:06:19.000 And so it's a guy, a woman, a woman, and a guy.
02:06:24.000 And then all four of them are going like this.
02:06:27.000 And then the first guy goes and does this like weird dance move.
02:06:30.000 And then it says IQ 89.
02:06:33.000 Are these real people?
02:06:34.000 Yeah.
02:06:34.000 And then it's, and then all of a sudden, he jumps and goes like this.
02:06:38.000 And the woman behind him does the same dance.
02:06:40.000 And it says IQ 91.
02:06:43.000 And then the third woman, they all start doing a choreographed dance.
02:06:46.000 And then it says like IQ 87.
02:06:48.000 And then the last guy does it.
02:06:50.000 Then it shows another, like two women walk into a room together and they're giggling.
02:06:53.000 And the woman smiles and waves as IQ 93.
02:06:56.000 And I'm like, did these people agree to allow these videos to be used in a commercial that says they're all fucking retarded?
02:07:02.000 Because sub 80 IQ or just 80, between 80 and 90 in general.
02:07:07.000 And it's like, see how smart you are.
02:07:10.000 And I'm like, the retard maxing.
02:07:13.000 The retard maxing.
02:07:14.000 Retard maxing.
02:07:16.000 I wonder if I can find this commercial because it's so fucking hilarious.
02:07:19.000 It's on Reddit.
02:07:19.000 Bring it up.
02:07:21.000 That's awesome.
02:07:22.000 Jeez.
02:07:23.000 Are they trying to appeal to the masses?
02:07:25.000 Is that why they're like, what's the average I'm doing?
02:07:27.000 I'm just saying like.
02:07:29.000 Did you guys ever hear that story of the Asian woman who modeled?
02:07:33.000 And she did a general modeling photo.
02:07:36.000 And then they used her image.
02:07:38.000 It was like her, a guy, and some kids.
02:07:40.000 And then she didn't know, but they put over it.
02:07:43.000 The kids all had big noses.
02:07:44.000 And it was like, our rhinoplasty is the best.
02:07:47.000 Oh, I've seen that.
02:07:47.000 It's a Chinese thing, I think.
02:07:48.000 Yeah.
02:07:49.000 And then she was like, everybody thought she had a nose job and she didn't agree to be a part of that or whatever.
02:07:54.000 That was like an episode of Friends where Joey got an acting modeling gig.
02:07:58.000 And then it turned out that it was for like anti-herpes medication or something.
02:08:03.000 And then he couldn't get a date.
02:08:04.000 And it was like a whole problem.
02:08:06.000 He was horrified.
02:08:07.000 Can you imagine like, oh, yeah, we got you a job.
02:08:10.000 You're a model now.
02:08:12.000 Wow.
02:08:12.000 Well, he had to pay that rent somehow.
02:08:14.000 Yeah.
02:08:15.000 I mean, somebody went on.
02:08:15.000 You know?
02:08:17.000 When you say he had to pay that rent, it implies so much more, especially in this context.
02:08:23.000 Like, did he, was he really bummed out that he was there, that he was in that ad?
02:08:23.000 Sure.
02:08:28.000 I don't know.
02:08:29.000 You see these commercials by pharmaceutical companies like for anti-AIDS medication.
02:08:32.000 Somebody has to do the acting.
02:08:34.000 You see people acting around and they're all like happy and stuff.
02:08:36.000 It's like, oh, you were the guy in the AIDS camps.
02:08:37.000 I just like all the crap ads on Subways.
02:08:40.000 Can you imagine getting that gig and you tell your family, like, oh, I'm on TV.
02:08:40.000 That kind of stuff.
02:08:43.000 What are you doing?
02:08:44.000 I would have taken that gig early in my career, too, for sure.
02:08:47.000 They're like, I pay you 7,000.
02:08:50.000 Why would you not want to get a national?
02:08:52.000 I love Morrison X.
02:08:54.000 And that's like me like rubbing it on my leg.
02:08:58.000 I think the economy is completely fake.
02:09:00.000 I think the economy collapsed a long time ago.
02:09:02.000 And just nobody knows.
02:09:03.000 Yeah, COVID.
02:09:06.000 Because on Instagram, it's all like, okay, like we talked about AI content before.
02:09:13.000 It's all AI.
02:09:15.000 It's insane the amount of AI content.
02:09:18.000 It's all fake and it's very hard to tell.
02:09:20.000 I keep all of the rumors literally.
02:09:22.000 Instead of AI graphics, I get a lot of AI-generated little stories.
02:09:26.000 Yep.
02:09:26.000 And then I read it and I'm like, how did I get sucked into this again?
02:09:29.000 I get the AI cat videos.
02:09:31.000 And I love those, actually.
02:09:32.000 Yeah, there's AI animal videos.
02:09:34.000 But I'm getting AI action sports indistinguishable.
02:09:37.000 Yeah, snowboarding.
02:09:38.000 Oh, really?
02:09:39.000 Indistinguishable.
02:09:40.000 I see a lot of the AI car accidents.
02:09:42.000 There should be a way.
02:09:44.000 What I find annoying is that you can't say, please don't feed me AI generated content.
02:09:48.000 Yeah, that would be a nice thing.
02:09:50.000 That would be a really nice thing.
02:09:51.000 I'm not going to be bad in Twitter to let me opt out of seeing anybody from a specific country.
02:09:56.000 I know you're talking about the EFL.
02:09:57.000 Talking about India.
02:09:59.000 It would be nice if you could actually tailor your algorithm.
02:10:02.000 Remember how everybody was talking for a while, like, oh, we're going to make the algorithm public and you can tailor it for yourself and you can see what it is.
02:10:08.000 And it was just all lies.
02:10:09.000 Well, I think they only release it in movie scenes and stuff.
02:10:12.000 It's fucking ridiculous.
02:10:14.000 You do have to tag your stuff as AI.
02:10:16.000 I'm surprised you can't opt out of seeing it.
02:10:18.000 I'm looking.
02:10:19.000 Yeah, what's the point of tagging it if people can't opt out of it?
02:10:21.000 Yeah, but I mean, you only see that it's AI after you've already seen whatever the stupid thing is.
02:10:26.000 And then you look at it and you're like, what's that?
02:10:28.000 Oh, it's AI.
02:10:29.000 And then you're annoyed.
02:10:30.000 My dad's constantly sending me videos.
02:10:31.000 And I'm like, dad, that's AI.
02:10:32.000 How do you know?
02:10:33.000 We'll look like look at his elbow or look at his fingers.
02:10:36.000 But yeah, increasingly you can't tell.
02:10:38.000 So men can't become dragons, dad.
02:10:40.000 That's how I think.
02:10:40.000 Well, there was a theory going back to, I think, what somebody else is saying, like, that's why you're going to start seeing AI becoming so indistinguishable that people are just going to check out.
02:10:49.000 I'm not going to have any social media.
02:10:50.000 I'm not going to watch YouTube.
02:10:52.000 I'm just going to exist because this is reality.
02:10:54.000 I'm going to start going out.
02:10:55.000 I'm going to start talking to people.
02:10:56.000 I'm going to start reading the newspaper.
02:10:57.000 And then also you have like Hollywood movies and stuff.
02:10:59.000 They're going to start using.
02:11:00.000 They're just going to start programming AI to do their movies.
02:11:03.000 Well, you've seen that with like the Marvel movies and like that.
02:11:05.000 You're seeing like, I think, and I don't really know for sure, but like viewership go down because it's all like fake.
02:11:11.000 Like we, my, my wife likes like dinosaurs.
02:11:14.000 So she we go to see the Jurassic Park and she hated the most recent one because they looked so fake and they're not using what they used to in the original Jurassic Parks where they build like a dinosaur from scratch.
02:11:24.000 Well, there was AI generated and it actually looks worse.
02:11:27.000 That's not just AI though.
02:11:28.000 That's I think partially part of the reason why movie viewership is down is because there's a lot of terrible scripts.
02:11:36.000 First of all, and second of all, you're not just talking about AI.
02:11:38.000 You're talking about computer generated.
02:11:40.000 Yeah, computer generated.
02:11:41.000 And there's a difference between computer generated and AI.
02:11:43.000 AI is like, you know, feed in the idea and AI creates the whole thing.
02:11:47.000 Computer generated is, you know, sometimes it's an artist doing it in the computer.
02:11:52.000 There was this interesting thing, you know, the Pendragon cycle, the new Daily Wire series.
02:11:57.000 So I watched the first couple episodes with my son, and there's a sequence where, and this is based on ancient Minoan sport where people would do, and it wasn't bull fighting, it was bull jumping, and you would jump bulls like while they're charging at you.
02:12:11.000 They would be charging at you and you would like go flip over the bulls.
02:12:14.000 It's like a Mexican thing?
02:12:15.000 No, it was Minoan.
02:12:17.000 It was like ancient Greece.
02:12:18.000 Oh, okay, okay.
02:12:18.000 It was like Crete, Cretan, however you say it.
02:12:21.000 And so they were doing this, and that's featured in the Pendragon cycle.
02:12:27.000 And it's this whole sequence.
02:12:28.000 And I was talking to the director about it, and it's real.
02:12:32.000 They got bulls.
02:12:33.000 They built a stadium.
02:12:35.000 They got the people.
02:12:37.000 They hired the people to do the stunts who actually do that, the recreations of the bull jumping.
02:12:42.000 And it's all legit.
02:12:43.000 It's all just real.
02:12:45.000 And I was like, that's actually kind of sick.
02:12:45.000 It's not fake.
02:12:49.000 Like, I'm going to, I watched the first two episodes.
02:12:51.000 I'm going to watch the third episode because if you're actually willing to do the stunts for real, I'm going to check that out.
02:12:57.000 Do you see any like actors doing their own stunts a lot nowadays?
02:13:00.000 Like it was Tom Cruise and Jackie Chan, right?
02:13:02.000 But I haven't seen like a good martial arts movie in forever.
02:13:05.000 Have there been a good, there hasn't been a martial arts movie?
02:13:05.000 Like I don't know.
02:13:08.000 Mad Max Fury Road wasn't martial arts, but the acrobatics were spectacular.
02:13:13.000 They were doing real dudes pole vaulting off of a car like on the side of a car while Sean Wick.
02:13:19.000 When did that come out?
02:13:20.000 Didn't he do his own?
02:13:21.000 That was like 2007 or 8.
02:13:24.000 Fury Road, I think.
02:13:25.000 Fury Road, though, it's not fighting.
02:13:28.000 There wasn't a lot of hand-to-hand combat or anything.
02:13:30.000 Yeah, if you're talking more straight action movies, I would call it an action movie.
02:13:34.000 No, it's 2015, so technically.
02:13:36.000 But to your point, like movies have sucked lately.
02:13:38.000 And I like going to the movie theaters.
02:13:40.000 I really enjoy the movie theater experience.
02:13:42.000 But a lot of this is.
02:13:43.000 I like the new thing, too, when you can get a burger at the movies.
02:13:46.000 This is something that I totally blame on DEI.
02:13:50.000 I know that that's kind of like a trope nowadays, but like when you get people in that like their whole goal is to deconstruct the property or to they're trying to surprise the viewer or they have an agenda that they're trying to push or whatever, or they want to make you feel uncomfortable because they think that their job is to make you feel uncomfortable in the movie theater.
02:14:12.000 It's like, bitch, I feel uncomfortable in my fucking life.
02:14:14.000 Like at the movies, I want to eat a burger, some popcorn, and like chill.
02:14:19.000 And I want you to tell me a good story.
02:14:20.000 Yeah, so you don't let me escape it.
02:14:22.000 Put a chicken in and make it get it.
02:14:23.000 Yeah, I mean, as much as I'm not, like, I'm not trying to say that women can't write or diverse people can't write, but when you get diverted, when you're specifically looking for diverse people, they tend to come with certain attitudes or certain educations oftentimes.
02:14:38.000 And they're looking at, they want to get in and disrupt the system and blah, blah, blah.
02:14:42.000 And it's like, look, man, people just want to go and watch Maverick get in a jet and shoot down the bad guys.
02:14:49.000 You look at how great Top Gun Maverick did, and it's like, there's barely even a story there.
02:14:55.000 It's just rah-rah, USA.
02:14:58.000 Look at the cool jets, and they're shooting down bad guys.
02:15:01.000 Well, this was something I was talking to Michael Knowles about this on my new podcast.
02:15:05.000 Everyone go subscribe to it, The Pod Millennial.
02:15:08.000 Anyway, I was talking to Michael Knowles about this because we were talking about One Battle After Another, which is basically an anti-foot propagandist film with Leonardo DiCaprio in it.
02:15:16.000 And it basically just encourages people to go park their minivan in the middle of the road and block ice.
02:15:23.000 That's kind of what it's about.
02:15:25.000 This is a movie.
02:15:26.000 This is a movie, One Battle After Another.
02:15:27.000 Did it sell well?
02:15:28.000 Yeah, well, yeah, it got a bunch of Golden Globe stuff.
02:15:31.000 I don't think it's called One Battle After Ann Ann.
02:15:37.000 One Battle After Another.
02:15:38.000 You're seeing this in the gaming industry.
02:15:40.000 It's getting the option for noms now.
02:15:42.000 And then you have this other movie, Sinners, which is like some sort of.
02:15:46.000 It looks like they're generally break-even.
02:15:49.000 Yeah, see, that's not a success.
02:15:50.000 So, actually, this would be considered a flop.
02:15:53.000 The $175 million budget, typically they match the budget with marketing.
02:15:57.000 So $207 million box office right now, it looks like it's kind of a, I wouldn't call it like a major bomb, but I've never heard of it.
02:16:04.000 It's critically acclaimed and all the rest of it.
02:16:05.000 And this is the kind of thing that you lose your job.
02:16:07.000 This is kind of stuff that they're pushing.
02:16:09.000 This is what they're pushing on us.
02:16:11.000 They're pushing messaging and propaganda, and they're not interested in telling us just good stories.
02:16:17.000 And this is something that happened in grad school.
02:16:19.000 Like when I started grad school, which I was studying playwriting.
02:16:22.000 So that was the whole point.
02:16:24.000 My professor at the beginning, my like main professor, said when we started the program, he was like, the most important thing about plays is the psychological component.
02:16:35.000 We were talking about Ibsen and Chekhov and that kind of stuff.
02:16:39.000 And he was like, that's the most important part.
02:16:41.000 And by the time I finished the program, like three years later, he said the most important part of plays were the political aspects.
02:16:48.000 And I was like, that's the opposite of what we started with.
02:16:52.000 Now you're telling, look, we started with relationships and motivations and story and character-driven drama.
02:17:00.000 And now we're talking propaganda.
02:17:01.000 It's a totally different type of thing.
02:17:04.000 And the concept of what an artist was went from someone who is honest and, you know, telling real stories about real people or, you know, telling truthful stories.
02:17:17.000 It changed from that to someone who has to be an art activist.
02:17:22.000 And the idea became that you have to be an art activist.
02:17:25.000 And I was in a workshop at the actor's studio at one point, and there was this story.
02:17:29.000 Someone did their reading from their play, and there was a guy in it who had this girlfriend, and he was like, you know, an asshole to his girlfriend.
02:17:39.000 And one of the people who was doing the critique in the audience was like, well, I really think that that's the wrong message to send, that people should be assholes to their girlfriend.
02:17:50.000 And I was like, but he is an asshole to his girlfriend.
02:17:54.000 Like, that's the character.
02:17:56.000 It's not about a message.
02:17:58.000 It's about the true story.
02:18:00.000 Yeah, you would see this where they'd make the bad guy and characters actually do bad things.
02:18:04.000 And people would be like, oh, this bad guy's a racist.
02:18:06.000 And it's like, yeah, he's the bad bad guy.
02:18:09.000 He's a bad guy.
02:18:10.000 The villains are either one-dimensional or they try and make the villain sympathetic.
02:18:15.000 I think a really good example of what's going on is if you take a look at Daily Show 2005, and everybody loved it.
02:18:24.000 And then you take a look at what happened after Jon Stewart left when you got John Oliver and Jordan Klepper and Samantha Beale, formulaic cookie-cutter retardation because these people did not have the talent that Jon Stewart had.
02:18:38.000 So they basically said, Here's the formula for John, repeat it.
02:18:41.000 And John Oliver gives you the most contrived, boring shit every single day.
02:18:44.000 It's the same exact thing.
02:18:46.000 Movies are the same way.
02:18:47.000 They go, what if like the villain was kind of sad?
02:18:52.000 And it's like, yeah, Batman Animated Series won the ME4 that in 1992.
02:18:57.000 Been there, done that.
02:18:58.000 Let's try something new.
02:19:00.000 But they don't know how.
02:19:01.000 All they can do is emulate because we live in a simulation.
02:19:04.000 Everyone's AI.
02:19:05.000 And Phil is actually the only real person who exists.
02:19:08.000 Yeah.
02:19:09.000 Yep.
02:19:11.000 Or actually, Ian.
02:19:13.000 No, no.
02:19:15.000 No.
02:19:16.000 I don't know most people, but I have seen in life that most people around me are not as smart as me.
02:19:23.000 They don't have the creativity that I have.
02:19:25.000 It's kind of frustrating because I keep expecting other people to fix the creative situation on Earth.
02:19:29.000 And it's like, unless I make the movie, it's not going to get made.
02:19:34.000 It's insane.
02:19:35.000 It's not going to do the work.
02:19:35.000 It's not going to get done.
02:19:36.000 I watch these things and I'm like, did they want to make a bad movie?
02:19:39.000 Like, that's the only thing I can surmise.
02:19:40.000 Like, when you watch Disney Plus stuff, you're like, are they retards?
02:19:44.000 Did they not watch their own show?
02:19:47.000 They are.
02:19:48.000 The Star Wars, the second, the Star Wars sequels, the second one, they literally wanted to make a bad movie.
02:19:54.000 Ryan Johnson wanted to kill Star Wars.
02:19:56.000 That's why.
02:19:57.000 So he's the worst human being.
02:19:58.000 No, Listen, it's actually, I stand by this.
02:20:01.000 I believe it's true.
02:20:02.000 Ryan Johnson had been saying over and over again, like stuff about letting go of the past.
02:20:08.000 In the movie they tell you to, what I think happened was they got J.J. Abrams to do The Force Awakens, and J.J. Abrams said, just make a shot-for-shot remake of A New Hope, which is literally what it is.
02:20:19.000 Play the movie side by side.
02:20:20.000 They're the same movie.
02:20:21.000 Yep.
02:20:22.000 And then they said, okay, well, he wasn't available for the next one.
02:20:25.000 So they got Ryan Johnson.
02:20:27.000 And my theory, and I 100% believe this.
02:20:30.000 I think it is a fact.
02:20:31.000 I think it is true.
02:20:32.000 Ryan Johnson said, Reboots are fucking boring.
02:20:36.000 Make something new.
02:20:38.000 What the fuck is wrong with you, people?
02:20:40.000 All you're doing is rebooting, rehashing, regurgitating bullshit.
02:20:43.000 And the reason why I believe this is that Looper, as contrived as it was, still entertaining.
02:20:49.000 And the Knives Out movies, even though the first one's a little woke, they're all very good.
02:20:53.000 Ryan Johnson knows how to make a movie.
02:20:55.000 I believe that he went to Star Wars and he said, I am going to fuck this genre.
02:21:00.000 I'm going to fuck this IP.
02:21:03.000 Just fucking destroy it.
02:21:05.000 And he said, I'm going to ruin everything they've done, everything they've tried to do, and make it the stupidest shit ever.
02:21:11.000 So they stop fucking trying.
02:21:14.000 And boy, did he fuck that whole thing up.
02:21:17.000 Which movie was that?
02:21:19.000 The Last Jedi.
02:21:20.000 From the Mary Poppins Princess Leia to the arcing plasma balls in outer space to Luke being a whiny bitch drinking a space cow tit and then dying from using the force and then killing Snoke.
02:21:34.000 He was like, let's fucking burn it down.
02:21:37.000 The fact that they didn't have the reunion that everybody wanted.
02:21:42.000 They had the opportunity in that movie to put Luke, Harrison Ford, and well, not because in the first one, I think Hanzolo was Hanzolo got killed.
02:21:51.000 But the fact that they didn't put the what?
02:21:54.000 Oh, Inforce Awakens.
02:21:55.000 Yeah, he got killed in the end of that one.
02:21:57.000 They didn't put the three of those, you know, all those characters back on the screen, even if just for like a 15-minute part of the movie.
02:22:03.000 Didn't have to be the whole movie, just for one part, like that was the biggest disservice to Star Wars fans.
02:22:11.000 Let's imagine.
02:22:13.000 You need to have the fancy.
02:22:14.000 I've never been a big fan of Star Wars anyway, but Star Trek follows much the same pattern.
02:22:19.000 Absolutely.
02:22:22.000 Holy shit, have you seen Starfleet Academy?
02:22:24.000 Oh my God, it is so bad.
02:22:26.000 It is so bad, Tim.
02:22:27.000 It is the worst.
02:22:28.000 I've watched every episode, and each time I've just been so sad.
02:22:32.000 And the thing about it, too, I mean, if I could just, for just a second, you have this character.
02:22:36.000 You have this character, and she's like a Starfleet Academy commander, right?
02:22:40.000 She's like a big up there sort of commander person yelling at students and telling them what to do.
02:22:45.000 And she's half Jemhadar and half Klingon, right?
02:22:49.000 Now, there are no Jemhadar females.
02:22:51.000 Jemhadar don't eat because they're addicted to this substance.
02:22:54.000 They were manufactured in test tubes.
02:22:56.000 They don't mate.
02:22:57.000 They have no reproductive capability.
02:22:59.000 How the fuck did how did they end up with a Klingon and create a person?
02:23:03.000 Canon doesn't matter.
02:23:04.000 No, no, no, but the best part is that I made it so much, and now she's a lesbian and she's fucking Tignatara.
02:23:09.000 What the hell?
02:23:10.000 I love how they made the Federation evil.
02:23:12.000 Yes.
02:23:13.000 The Federation is now an evil empire.
02:23:15.000 Yes, they have to make it evil because they hate America.
02:23:17.000 Didn't they do that with like World of Warcraft?
02:23:17.000 Yep, yeah.
02:23:19.000 They made the orcs like the good guys.
02:23:21.000 No, no, but that was a.
02:23:21.000 They did.
02:23:22.000 That was, that was the 90s like they could.
02:23:26.000 Okay, so hold on, I gotta defend Warcraft here.
02:23:29.000 I gotta defend Warcraft here.
02:23:30.000 So in the original Warcraft the Orcs were mindless monsters yeah, and Warcraft 1 you could play either.
02:23:36.000 Warcraft 2 is when they started to change it and they were like, actually the Orcs were dominated by fell demonic energy and manipulated and seduced, and the orcs were actually shamanic, like they were not evil.
02:23:50.000 They did this because they they they wanted to create two distinct arcs and basically what it is is Warcraft has.
02:23:59.000 I mean, it's convoluted now, but the general idea at the time was the Horde isn't inherently evil, the alliance isn't inherently good or evil, but the invasion of the Orcs was because of an actual evil faction.
02:24:10.000 So basically, there is evil in World Of Warcraft.
02:24:13.000 A definitive evil does evil things.
02:24:15.000 There's a bunch of it, but the Orcs were subjugated, not the evil itself.
02:24:19.000 I think i'm thinking uh, Lord Of The Rings, I think where yes, they made the, the orcs.
02:24:23.000 Orcs and LORD of the Rings were now our families and their families like babies.
02:24:27.000 Did we watch the same movie?
02:24:29.000 That's horrible.
02:24:29.000 And Holly Hunter is the worst commander person ever.
02:24:33.000 She walks around the starship without shoes on.
02:24:36.000 Without shoes she like lounges around, she meets with people and lays down on couches.
02:24:41.000 She has foot jewelry on her and she also.
02:24:45.000 She quit Starfleet and then they brought her back in 120 Later, years later, after she was, what is it, cryogenically frozen or something like that for the whole time.
02:24:55.000 And she hates Starfleet.
02:24:57.000 She hates everything.
02:24:58.000 Oh, let's just lay it out.
02:25:00.000 Okay.
02:25:01.000 Star Trek the original series was okay.
02:25:04.000 Okay.
02:25:05.000 And then they made some movies that were okay.
02:25:08.000 Kirk was good.
02:25:09.000 And then, sure, but okay.
02:25:11.000 I give it all a C.
02:25:12.000 It's fine.
02:25:12.000 Great for its time.
02:25:14.000 And then they made the Next Generation.
02:25:16.000 And in season one, we're like, okay, I see where you're going.
02:25:20.000 And in season two, we went, really?
02:25:22.000 And by season three, we were like, this is the best show ever made.
02:25:24.000 It was syndicated on multiple networks.
02:25:26.000 And they said we had to do spin-offs.
02:25:27.000 And in the 90s, you simultaneously had Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager.
02:25:32.000 And Voyager was meh.
02:25:34.000 Deep Space Nine was terrific.
02:25:35.000 Deep Space Nine.
02:25:36.000 Legendary.
02:25:37.000 So good.
02:25:38.000 The show is the best.
02:25:38.000 You all have to watch that.
02:25:40.000 And you have so many good double parties of Deep Space Nine.
02:25:44.000 Which one is that?
02:25:45.000 That's the one where they false flag assassinate a Romulan senator to force the Romulans to enter the Dominion War on the side of the Federation.
02:25:53.000 And then Cisco's like, I can live with it.
02:25:55.000 Yeah, you know, it's so good.
02:25:56.000 Okay.
02:25:56.000 Or the one when they go back in time.
02:25:59.000 No, Now we're getting a little gummy.
02:26:00.000 No, no, no.
02:26:01.000 The one where he's like, it's like in the 30s.
02:26:03.000 Yeah.
02:26:04.000 You know, that's so good.
02:26:05.000 Okay, so just, this is really important.
02:26:06.000 It's one of my favorites.
02:26:07.000 If you ever watch any episode of Deep Space Nine, it's in the pale moonlight.
02:26:10.000 So the story is actually, I'm going to spoil some of it for you, but you watch it.
02:26:13.000 Basically, there's the premise of Deep Space Nine is that wormhole is open up to the Delta Quadrant.
02:26:19.000 This is allowing travel that normally takes 70 years and just jump to the wormhole.
02:26:24.000 This opens up trade with new species, new empires, and eventually war breaks out.
02:26:31.000 The Dominion wants to conquer the, what are they in?
02:26:33.000 They're in the Alpha Quadrant, right?
02:26:34.000 Yeah, the Dominion wants to conquer the Alpha Quadrant.
02:26:36.000 And so this is the Federation, the Romulans, the Klingons.
02:26:38.000 And our soldiers.
02:26:39.000 With their soldiers.
02:26:41.000 And so what happens is the Federation is getting crushed.
02:26:45.000 And they go to the Romulans, who are their enemies, and they say, at this point, I think they have a truce.
02:26:50.000 And they say to the senator, you need to join the war on the side of the Federation because after we lose, the Dominion will subjugate Romulus and the Romulans.
02:26:59.000 And they say, we don't care.
02:27:02.000 You're on your own.
02:27:03.000 Go fuck yourself.
02:27:04.000 They're isolated.
02:27:05.000 So this is like an America-Israel thing.
02:27:08.000 All that matters is something else.
02:27:09.000 So what happens is they plan a false flag attack to assassinate the Romulan senator, framing the Dominion, to force the Romulans to enter the war on their side.
02:27:18.000 Who sets up the false flag?
02:27:19.000 Cisco and the Federation.
02:27:21.000 I don't know if the Federation is in on it, but it was the right thing to do.
02:27:21.000 We talked about this.
02:27:25.000 It turned out to be the right thing.
02:27:26.000 There's no right thing to do.
02:27:28.000 You know what it is?
02:27:29.000 Killer storytelling.
02:27:30.000 It's really good storytelling.
02:27:32.000 I love making good people do evil to survive and do and come out better.
02:27:37.000 Let's just do this crazy.
02:27:37.000 It's a lame Miz type of thing.
02:27:39.000 I'm going to give you a question.
02:27:40.000 I'm going to gush.
02:27:41.000 And let me start by saying, I tell you this story.
02:27:44.000 I tell you this story because I want you to understand what these motherfuckers took from us.
02:27:50.000 Okay.
02:27:50.000 Star Trek the original series.
02:27:52.000 Klingons are the bad guys.
02:27:54.000 Amen.
02:27:54.000 They're bad guys.
02:27:55.000 Klingons.
02:27:56.000 When they created the next generation, they wanted to show that progress had happened.
02:28:00.000 The story had developed.
02:28:01.000 And so they introduced a Klingon on the bridge of a Federation starship wharf.
02:28:06.000 And the message here is times have changed.
02:28:10.000 And some of the best writing ever.
02:28:13.000 Here's the story.
02:28:14.000 The Klingons are an honorific culture.
02:28:16.000 Everything's based on honor and nobility.
02:28:19.000 And they hate us because humans are fat, liberal, all that bullshit.
02:28:23.000 Comfortable.
02:28:23.000 Comfortable.
02:28:24.000 And so what happened was the Enterprise, I think it was Enterprise C, receives a distress call from a Klingon colony.
02:28:33.000 It's largely women and children.
02:28:34.000 It's a civilian outpost.
02:28:35.000 And it's being attacked by Romulans.
02:28:37.000 Despite the fact that Klingons and the Federation are at war, the Enterprise rushes full speed to try and save as many Klingon civilians as possible, being destroyed in the process.
02:28:50.000 The Enterprise, they're killed.
02:28:52.000 And because of this sacrifice, the Klingons enter into an alliance with the Federation, recognizing the honor that the Federation was willing to make to save their own enemies because killing children was wrong.
02:29:01.000 That's kind of cool.
02:29:02.000 Is that the Kiddemer Accord?
02:29:03.000 Yeah.
02:29:03.000 Yes.
02:29:04.000 And Worf was orphaned in the attack, and it's how he goes to be raised by the Federation.
02:29:09.000 But brilliant writing.
02:29:10.000 They were like, the Federation proved their honor and self-sacrifice for civilians of the enemy because killing civilians was dishonorable.
02:29:19.000 And the Romulans were opportunistic.
02:29:22.000 I remember watching this being like, wow.
02:29:24.000 Like, how these bonds are formed.
02:29:26.000 And then you get this whole conspiracy arc where Worf's dad is framed as a spy for the Romulans and it helps.
02:29:32.000 Turns out it wasn't the case.
02:29:35.000 And then the government in Kronos is basically like the people can't know the truth about who was really responsible for this because it would be destabilizing.
02:29:42.000 Fucking amazing show.
02:29:43.000 Now it's a bunch of fat, gay weirdo aliens talking about how actually they were evil the whole time.
02:29:49.000 Fuck these people.
02:29:50.000 And there's a Klingon.
02:29:51.000 Can I just say there's a Klingon character in Starfleet Academy who the actor, when he's talking about the role that he plays, is like, oh, we're reframing what a warrior is.
02:30:00.000 You no longer have to be a fighter.
02:30:02.000 And it's like, you're a fucking Klingon.
02:30:04.000 Like, have some nerve.
02:30:05.000 Have some backbone.
02:30:06.000 Are you men?
02:30:08.000 Put some strength into those spines.
02:30:09.000 You're watching it just as like enraged.
02:30:12.000 No, I didn't want to be enraged.
02:30:15.000 I wanted to, I wanted it to be good.
02:30:17.000 And so then I watched it, and then I was telling my son about it.
02:30:20.000 He knows that I'm crazy about Star Trek, you know?
02:30:22.000 And then he was like, well, I'll watch episode two with you.
02:30:25.000 And we watched it, and he was like, for days, he was like, mom, how bad was that?
02:30:29.000 That was so bad.
02:30:31.000 They've taken it from us.
02:30:32.000 Are you going to keep watching?
02:30:34.000 The Orville.
02:30:35.000 No, I watched the first two episodes.
02:30:36.000 And now my son is like, maybe we should just, I'll watch DS9 with you.
02:30:42.000 But you've watched the Orville, right?
02:30:43.000 No, I haven't watched The Orville.
02:30:44.000 You've not watched The Orville.
02:30:46.000 Okay, so Seth McFarlane clearly wanted to remake Star Trek The Next Generation.
02:30:46.000 That's bad.
02:30:50.000 I'm right down.
02:30:52.000 So here's how I accidentally wrote Electra.
02:30:55.000 My theory is that Seth McFarlane went to Fox and says, I want to remake Star Trek The Next Generation.
02:31:01.000 I know we can't, but can we make a show that is basically the same thing?
02:31:04.000 And they said, funny man, you make joke.
02:31:07.000 You know do sci-fi.
02:31:08.000 And he says, what if it's comedy?
02:31:10.000 And they said, okay, fine.
02:31:12.000 So the Orville season one is very funny.
02:31:15.000 And it was pitched as a satirical version of Star Trek.
02:31:19.000 I think they did that to get around IP issues because it's literally fucking Star Trek.
02:31:24.000 Then they did season two, which was a bit less comedic and more next generation-y.
02:31:30.000 And then season three, it's basically the next generation.
02:31:33.000 Is it good?
02:31:34.000 Yeah.
02:31:34.000 I'm going to watch it.
02:31:35.000 Yeah, it's not the next generation, but Seth McFarlane is trying.
02:31:39.000 And for instance, like the last episode, I think the show's canceled, but the last episode, there's a planet they've been to where it's very much like Earth in the 21st century.
02:31:49.000 And a refugee from that planet tries stealing technology.
02:31:53.000 And they're explaining to her why advanced civilizations can't give technology to underdeveloped civilizations.
02:31:59.000 So it's yeah, they basically explaining why there's a prime directive.
02:32:04.000 And not nearly as good and a little, it's still liberal.
02:32:09.000 So like, for instance, they find a planet that one episode where there's a planet disappears.
02:32:16.000 And then it reappears.
02:32:16.000 And they're like, whoa, where'd it go?
02:32:18.000 Every time it disappears, it exists for 500 years in another dimension.
02:32:22.000 That sort of vaguely happened on DS9.
02:32:24.000 And Jax fell in love with the guy.
02:32:25.000 Well, there you go.
02:32:26.000 It blinks back.
02:32:27.000 And so what happens is Kelly, second in command, goes down.
02:32:30.000 And when they're exploring this planet, she finds a child who's hurt and uses one of their medical devices to heal the wound on her hand before leaving.
02:32:38.000 The planet blinks out of existence and then blinks back.
02:32:41.000 And now there's a whole religion dedicated to her because she has the ability to heal by touch.
02:32:45.000 And then she tries to explain to them, and there's priests and they're worshiping her and they have statues of her.
02:32:50.000 And then eventually, you know, you should watch.
02:32:53.000 So we should go to callers instead of just talking about Star Trek.
02:32:56.000 Dr. Pants, which is your favorite episode of Star Trek The Next Generation?
02:33:01.000 Hello again, panel.
02:33:03.000 It's your favorite and very best president ever in history taking a break from my 32d chest to call in.
02:33:11.000 And unfortunately, I don't have a favorite Star Trek episode.
02:33:14.000 I was always a Star Wars guy.
02:33:17.000 That's okay.
02:33:18.000 They took that from us too.
02:33:20.000 Yeah.
02:33:21.000 Okay, my actual question.
02:33:24.000 If President Trump is pulling out of Minnesota and capitulating to the left, is the best we on the right can hope for a further bifurcation of states into eventual succession or secession?
02:33:38.000 I mean, it sounds like communist revolution.
02:33:42.000 Like if there's no fighting back, if there's no resistance, then it's just, well, I'll put it this way: I, for one, welcome our new transsexual overlords.
02:33:53.000 Twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom.
02:33:56.000 Stunningly gay.
02:33:57.000 We will not see secession in our lifetime.
02:33:59.000 Definitely not.
02:34:00.000 I don't think we will either.
02:34:01.000 Texans LARP it all the time, and it's never going to happen.
02:34:04.000 Yeah, I don't think Alberta is going to do it either.
02:34:06.000 I disagree.
02:34:07.000 You don't think y'all are overly optimistic.
02:34:09.000 Interesting.
02:34:10.000 I don't think it will happen.
02:34:10.000 I don't think I'll have it.
02:34:11.000 When I asked Eric Prince about everything that he had seen in these countries he's operated in the United States, if there's any similarities, he just said, the one thing I can tell you is that everything seems normal.
02:34:22.000 And then one day you wake up and there's no communications, no electricity, and no internet.
02:34:26.000 So sounds terrible.
02:34:28.000 There's optimism, bias, and normalcy bias, and everyone's got it because it hasn't happened.
02:34:32.000 It's not a part of their routine.
02:34:34.000 They don't believe it's possible.
02:34:35.000 But every single time you have seen revolution, factionalizing or whatever, it was overnight.
02:34:43.000 And nobody thought it possible.
02:34:45.000 And I said it before.
02:34:46.000 I'm going to say it again.
02:34:48.000 Two years of fighting until the people said we're in a civil war.
02:34:52.000 It was two years.
02:34:53.000 Abraham Lincoln literally sent troops in to shoot Confederates.
02:34:58.000 And people, this is after Manassas.
02:34:59.000 And they're like, it's not a civil war.
02:35:01.000 It was two years after the fighting had already started at Sumter where they were like, it's a civil war now.
02:35:07.000 Isn't that crazy?
02:35:08.000 I do think one of the things that's absolutely insane, and I was writing about this in Human Events a couple of weeks ago or at some point that was recent because I've lost track of time.
02:35:17.000 But I was writing about something you've talked about a lot, which is like, is Minnesota bleeding Kansas?
02:35:22.000 Is that what we're looking at?
02:35:23.000 And when you have state leaders openly and intentionally defying federal law, and there is not, I mean, I see that there's been pushback in terms of no, we're going to conduct federal law, we're still going to enforce federal law, but there hasn't been anything against the leaders who are openly defying federal law and encouraging their citizens to defy it as well.
02:35:45.000 And that is something that is, it is seriously crazy.
02:35:48.000 And it makes me wonder if, like you're talking about, we just lack the imagination to see how far we have fallen and how close we are to potential collapse.
02:35:57.000 I think it's fair to say we won't see secession only because everyone's going to claim legitimacy.
02:36:03.000 Minnesota's not going to secede because they're going to say we're the rightful governor.
02:36:06.000 We're the real America.
02:36:07.000 Yeah.
02:36:08.000 And so the American Civil War was not a civil war in the traditional sense.
02:36:12.000 We just call it that because we have nothing better to call it.
02:36:14.000 But typically throughout history, civil wars have been multiple factions fighting for control of one territory, one government.
02:36:22.000 And it's not like the Spanish Civil War, for instance, is pockets of nationalist and Republican, and they're fighting each other for control of this land called Spain.
02:36:31.000 The Confederacy was several states breaking away saying, we're just not going to be a part of your union anymore.
02:36:36.000 And it was interesting because before it was, you know, when the War of Independence started, it was 1755, and it didn't end until around, I think it was, what, 1789?
02:36:46.000 Yeah.
02:36:47.000 Was it 89?
02:36:48.000 So there was no country.
02:36:50.000 There was no president.
02:36:51.000 There was no constant.
02:36:53.000 There were loose articles.
02:36:55.000 I think it was the Confederation.
02:36:56.000 And then in 89, they were like, okay, let's actually do a constitution and unite these 13 colonies as one country.
02:37:04.000 So anyway, long story short, the way the Confederacy saw it was it was 80 years.
02:37:13.000 There were people alive that had been born at the time of independence.
02:37:18.000 And so they're basically just like, look, nothing keeps us here.
02:37:22.000 We can leave if we want to.
02:37:23.000 And Lincoln was like, I'll be damned if the union breaks on my watch.
02:37:27.000 And so he went down to go fight them.
02:37:28.000 And they did not think a civil war happened for two years.
02:37:31.000 Like, it's remarkable that Lincoln was like, I'm going to arrest politicians, threaten to arrest a Supreme Court justice.
02:37:37.000 I'm going to arrest journalists.
02:37:38.000 I'm going to, there's no more habeas corpus from Philly to D.C.
02:37:44.000 The state governments of these southern states are now void.
02:37:47.000 All the slaves are, your ownership is now void.
02:37:50.000 And they were like, it's not a civil war.
02:37:52.000 And till two years later, they were like, the civil war.
02:37:55.000 They were calling it like a rebellion.
02:37:57.000 They were calling it, the South was calling it a war of northern aggression because they viewed themselves already as an independent nation with their own government, president, and currency.
02:38:06.000 And today, we suffer from optimism and normalcy bias where people genuinely believe that despite the fact we track alongside what every other country ever has, and that it's always ever been just an overnight change, they believe it's not possible.
02:38:21.000 That's me.
02:38:22.000 You know the meme, nothing ever happens, guy?
02:38:24.000 That's me.
02:38:24.000 Yeah.
02:38:25.000 Yeah.
02:38:25.000 I'm the nothing ever happens guy.
02:38:26.000 So the issue is that nothing ever happens is a symptom of history books.
02:38:34.000 Because when Americans read history, they'll read a paragraph where it says, the founding fathers held several meetings, the Continental Congress, and came together and ultimately voted for independence.
02:38:45.000 The king responded by, no, no, no, no, hold on.
02:38:49.000 That was 20 years, a 20-year period.
02:38:53.000 But Americans read it in a paragraph.
02:38:55.000 So they're sitting here being like, nothing ever happens.
02:38:58.000 Because like the American Revolution is the shot heard around the world.
02:39:01.000 And then the founding fathers say, give me liberty or give me death.
02:39:04.000 And then they come to have a meeting and say, we're going to sign a Declaration of Independence.
02:39:07.000 And then the king reacts, slow down there.
02:39:10.000 The shot heard around the world was in 1755.
02:39:12.000 They didn't sign the Declaration for a year, until a year later.
02:39:16.000 The war had been going on for some time.
02:39:19.000 The shot heard around the world was just the moment where they said, I think we're at war.
02:39:22.000 75.
02:39:23.000 1775.
02:39:24.000 55 is what came out of here.
02:39:24.000 Yeah.
02:39:25.000 Oh, sorry.
02:39:26.000 1775 was when the shooting started.
02:39:28.000 You know, with the 1990s.
02:39:29.000 But so tall scale.
02:39:31.000 The point is this.
02:39:33.000 Someone tried to kill Trump and shot him in the side of the head.
02:39:35.000 Something happened.
02:39:37.000 Trump won and shut down USAID.
02:39:39.000 Something happened.
02:39:40.000 When the history books write about all of this stuff, they're not going to even mention USAID.
02:39:45.000 No, they're not.
02:39:46.000 What they're going to say is in 2024, an assassination attempt was made on the life of Donald Trump, which boosted him in the polls, ultimately resulting in a victory in November of that year.
02:39:46.000 It's a blip.
02:39:58.000 Activist groups had been organizing in response, viewing Trump as a fascistic takeover.
02:40:03.000 By August of that year, one of the most notable proselytizers and campaigners for Donald Trump and the right, Charlie Kirk, was assassinated.
02:40:11.000 This led to, and you're going to be like, whoa, hold, hold on.
02:40:14.000 The history books are going to write it in one paragraph in four sentences, what took us a year to experience.
02:40:20.000 So if you actually stop and track every Timcast IRL video going back, you'd be like, holy fuck, 20 years of history happening in one year before our eyes, yet people are still convinced nothing's happened.
02:40:33.000 We just learned, and I think we knew this, but we just officially confirmed the state government of Minnesota has a paramilitary insurgent organization that has people who go on duty that call themselves resistance and they're on shifts.
02:40:50.000 They have access to government infrastructure and databases and they have a spy network at a variety of businesses throughout Minnesota to assist in rejecting the sworn duly elected government of the United States.
02:41:05.000 And then they call out the National Guard and they have the National Guard go out and distribute donuts and coffee to the people who are resources to the insurgents.
02:41:15.000 Yeah, into these.
02:41:16.000 To discover that we have an active insurgency but still believe nothing ever happens, I think is.
02:41:21.000 So like what happened?
02:41:21.000 Like were we shutting it down?
02:41:23.000 What do you mean?
02:41:24.000 Like are we shutting it down?
02:41:25.000 Are we shutting down this insurgency?
02:41:26.000 What happened was an insurgency came out of war.
02:41:29.000 The guy was shot and killed.
02:41:31.000 Yeah.
02:41:32.000 And nothing happened.
02:41:34.000 Nothing happened.
02:41:34.000 What do you mean?
02:41:35.000 There's a dead guy.
02:41:36.000 Trump pulled out.
02:41:37.000 They're smashing up businesses.
02:41:39.000 They bashed a guy in the face.
02:41:40.000 I think the last happening I would consider a happening was us going into Venezuela and ganking their president.
02:41:45.000 Like that was pretty recent.
02:41:47.000 Like I was just like, okay, because we have a group chat where it's like part of us are like team, nothing ever happens.
02:41:47.000 That was huge.
02:41:51.000 And part of us are like, we're monitoring the situation every five seconds.
02:41:54.000 And that was the one where I conceded and I was like, okay, yeah, something happened.
02:41:57.000 It's just frogs in a pot boiling.
02:41:58.000 Yeah.
02:41:59.000 No.
02:41:59.000 The temperature is being cranked up one degree every single day and you're not noticing.
02:42:04.000 Go back five years.
02:42:06.000 You know, I love the time travel test.
02:42:09.000 Not even 10 years.
02:42:10.000 Go back five years and tell people what was going to, what was happening in the next five years.
02:42:14.000 Tell them USAID would be gutted and shut down.
02:42:16.000 Trump would be arrested.
02:42:17.000 His lawyers would be arrested.
02:42:19.000 J Sixers would be rounded up across the country.
02:42:22.000 Trump would then get elected.
02:42:23.000 He'd pardon all of them.
02:42:24.000 He'd get shot in the side of the head.
02:42:25.000 And people would be like, that's a movie, dude.
02:42:27.000 That's not possible.
02:42:28.000 The amount of things that have happened that have reshaped our perception of this country are unprecedented.
02:42:34.000 The problem is nothing ever happens because your expectation of it happening is based on movies and storybooks.
02:42:40.000 I think it's based off of, does it affect me?
02:42:42.000 Like if I, if I, like, because I think you had said you don't really experience the news, and I'm not, this is not an attack on you.
02:42:47.000 I'm just like, you like to wake up and like find out what happens here.
02:42:50.000 But do you feel, like personally, do you feel that your life is drastically different in the last 30 days?
02:42:58.000 30 days?
02:42:59.000 Actually, we've had a lot of stuff happen, right?
02:43:00.000 You said the shooting.
02:43:01.000 Personally, personally, not drastically different, but like pretty wild.
02:43:05.000 I would say that you think that's it.
02:43:07.000 Where are you right now?
02:43:08.000 Definitely in this.
02:43:09.000 Yeah, right.
02:43:09.000 But like this shooting of this guy, this pretty guy, has that affected you?
02:43:14.000 No, no.
02:43:15.000 That's what I mean.
02:43:16.000 Like, the ignorance of it is evidence as an actual thing.
02:43:19.000 Because I think in my head, for something to happen, it has to affect the average person that's not in the space we're in.
02:43:27.000 Like, I look at my normie friends, right?
02:43:29.000 Like, my normie friends from my previous jobs that don't pay attention to politics.
02:43:32.000 And I hang out with them.
02:43:33.000 And I'm like, you, I'm like, oh, this happened.
02:43:35.000 This happened.
02:43:36.000 They're like, oh, man, I bought a new race car simulator.
02:43:36.000 This happened.
02:43:40.000 Do you want to come over and try it out?
02:43:41.000 And I'm just like, when?
02:43:42.000 Bro, when?
02:43:43.000 But when has that ever mattered in history?
02:43:47.000 Ever.
02:43:49.000 What do you mean?
02:43:50.000 Like, I think for something to happen, it has to affect.
02:43:52.000 Like, what percentage of the American people fought in the American Revolution?
02:43:56.000 I don't know.
02:43:56.000 3%.
02:43:58.000 Yeah, but it affected everybody, right?
02:44:00.000 It didn't.
02:44:00.000 That affected everybody.
02:44:01.000 Most people didn't know anything was going on.
02:44:04.000 Most people are not in war.
02:44:05.000 I give this example all the time.
02:44:06.000 Would you consider the Egyptian Revolution happening?
02:44:10.000 No?
02:44:11.000 I don't know.
02:44:11.000 Yes, I agree with you.
02:44:12.000 It certainly didn't fucking affect the people of Egypt.
02:44:14.000 I think like something like COVID, that was a happening.
02:44:16.000 That affected everybody, right?
02:44:18.000 The Egyptian revolution.
02:44:19.000 And the example I give all the time was 3,000 people in Tahrir Square, and everybody else was going about their lodges as if nothing was happening.
02:44:26.000 And I went to McDonald's two blocks away from Tahrir and watched, there's a guy playing soccer.
02:44:32.000 Downstairs, there's people eating food.
02:44:34.000 There's a casino in the Hilton.
02:44:36.000 While a revolution is taking place, Heliopolis shopping mall was carrying on as people bought kebabs and nothing changed for them.
02:44:43.000 I think you had something similar like that.
02:44:44.000 Was it, was it, where was it where there was like a mass shooting going on and people were like partying in the park and like people were ziplining and like there was some bad mass shooting?
02:44:51.000 All the time.
02:44:52.000 And that's the point.
02:44:54.000 The argument that nothing ever happens because it has to affect regular people is to say literally nothing's ever happened.
02:44:59.000 Well, the thing right now too is like if you think about, and we don't get a lot of news out of Myanmar, but there's been a lot going on in Myanmar, right?
02:45:06.000 There's been like a lot of fighting and stuff like that.
02:45:09.000 And so the government just threw a bunch of big concerts and parties and everybody went to them.
02:45:14.000 But they're still like in massive tumult there.
02:45:17.000 But still the government was like, oh, let's have a party anyway.
02:45:20.000 I think that is something that's interesting.
02:45:22.000 And when you look at the Civil War and when you look at, you know, look at the Crusades.
02:45:26.000 The Crusades certainly didn't affect everybody, but it affected a lot of people who went to war and fought in those wars.
02:45:32.000 No one in New York was affected during the Civil War.
02:45:36.000 They didn't see any conflict.
02:45:37.000 Their industry largely remained untouched.
02:45:39.000 They weren't dealing with sabotage or, I mean, prices probably went up and they read the news and they said, nothing ever happens.
02:45:46.000 They didn't call it a civil war for two years, but we call Fort Sumter the happening.
02:45:53.000 The issue is that historical events rarely affect the mass fabric and mountains are moved by small groups of people.
02:46:02.000 So if we're going to look at history and ask when has something happened, well, we can certainly see tons of instances where things happened, but regular people were unmoved by it.
02:46:10.000 The people of Illinois were largely unmoved by the Civil War.
02:46:13.000 It was honestly, the areas affected by the Civil War largely were with the March to the Sea.
02:46:18.000 You've got Georgia, and then you've got Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, and South PA.
02:46:25.000 Maryland affected politically a bit.
02:46:27.000 Delaware, not so much.
02:46:29.000 So the people in New York and the people in Texas, nothing happened.
02:46:33.000 Did the Civil War happen?
02:46:34.000 Nah, it's just fighting somewhere else.
02:46:36.000 I think I need something to happen so that I can use all the stuff I bought for it happening.
02:46:41.000 I have so much leftover things.
02:46:44.000 But you could go to where things are happening and use your stuff.
02:46:47.000 Yeah, but then I'd have to sacrifice my well-being.
02:46:49.000 But that's always happened.
02:46:50.000 And this is why the people and this is why Guywinslaw in Germany, as the Nazis were rising, the Jews who left early were viewed as being paranoid.
02:47:02.000 There's a photo of Anne Frank vacationing on the beach at Amsterdam, like I think two years or not even two years before she's dead.
02:47:10.000 Because these people were like, nothing ever happens.
02:47:13.000 There were some Jews that were like, holy shit, do you see what's happening?
02:47:16.000 And the other Jews were like, nothing's happening.
02:47:18.000 And they were like, they're calling to kill us.
02:47:20.000 Well, they lacked the imagination to see that what could happen, right?
02:47:24.000 I mean, this happened in France, too, and you had the underground in France, but you also just had Vichy and people going along with it.
02:47:32.000 I think the nothing ever happens that I have is probably a symptom of being too involved in things.
02:47:38.000 Like, I see so much.
02:47:39.000 Like, every day I wake up and it's like, oh, this shit's happening.
02:47:42.000 And then I'm like, the next day, like, people move on to the next scandal.
02:47:45.000 Like, right?
02:47:46.000 Like, we should be talking more about like what happened in Venezuela.
02:47:49.000 We're not.
02:47:50.000 We're moving on to the next thing.
02:47:51.000 We won't be talking.
02:47:53.000 We won't be talking about.
02:47:56.000 I don't think people understand what's huge.
02:47:59.000 My father's huge and like huge.
02:48:02.000 What does this mean?
02:48:03.000 This means that institutional investors a long time ago made a move to hedge against the dollar's collapse, probably when Saudi Arabia got off the petrodollar contract.
02:48:13.000 The retail market is now reacting late to the game as we expect it to.
02:48:18.000 And this is an indication of this is going to affect you.
02:48:22.000 Now, have you ever seen the video of the tsunami in Thailand where the people are standing on the beach just going, wow.
02:48:29.000 Right?
02:48:29.000 And you can see it.
02:48:30.000 And then you're going to be.
02:48:31.000 That's the nothing ever happens, people.
02:48:33.000 It's going to be.
02:48:34.000 And they're dead.
02:48:34.000 That's going to be me.
02:48:35.000 That's going to be me.
02:48:36.000 And there's, and there's people in buildings going, screaming at them to run.
02:48:40.000 And they're just standing there being like, the water's going.
02:48:43.000 See, that was, see, I was that mindset, though, with like COVID, like you.
02:48:46.000 Like, I assume, like, when COVID hit, when you got word of COVID in January, what did you do?
02:48:51.000 Did you go prep?
02:48:53.000 We bought a bunch of emergency bucket food.
02:48:55.000 And that's exactly what I did.
02:48:56.000 I've still got that bucket food in my closet, actually.
02:48:58.000 We ate some of it.
02:48:59.000 It was good.
02:49:00.000 It's really high in situations.
02:49:01.000 Because you've got two worst case scenarios with emergency food.
02:49:04.000 Worst case scenario, legitimate, oof, the world ended and you have to eat it.
02:49:08.000 Worst case scenario, you spent the money, you have food and you can eat it.
02:49:11.000 See, I emptied mine out because Cinemark had a bring your own size to fill up popcorn bucket.
02:49:16.000 And so I emptied out our bucket of emergency prep food and I went to Cinemark and I got this huge tub of popcorn.
02:49:21.000 I was still eating it.
02:49:23.000 But like, that was me.
02:49:25.000 Like, I was monitoring the situation all the time.
02:49:27.000 And my wife at the time thought I was fucking crazy.
02:49:29.000 She's like, you went out and you bought ammo and guns and prep food.
02:49:33.000 You bought a door reinforced and reinforcement bar for the door.
02:49:37.000 And then like when shit went bad, she, I actually really appreciate this, like a core memory for my wife, like approached me one night and she's like, I just want to let you know, like, I feel really bad for giving you a hard time.
02:49:46.000 Like, I feel really safe because of what you did.
02:49:50.000 I did sort of a different thing.
02:49:51.000 I bought cases of spaghetti.
02:49:54.000 I bought a lot of toilet paper.
02:49:56.000 I bought, I bought shelf-stable milk.
02:49:59.000 And I bought a lot of water.
02:49:59.000 Yeah.
02:50:01.000 And I put a bunch of butter in the freezer.
02:50:04.000 And now sort of my normal practice is like, if you come over to my house, there are no less than 20 boxes of pasta in my, in my, oh, and I bought a ton of flour.
02:50:14.000 We're the same with ramen.
02:50:15.000 Yeah.
02:50:16.000 Oh, I have a case of ramen.
02:50:17.000 I have 20 boxes of pasta and I have so much flour.
02:50:21.000 And I've gotten really good at making things like brownies and cake.
02:50:24.000 I want to say one more thing.
02:50:25.000 We do got to get to other callers, but one question we've asked in the show a while ago is, what is an item that is common that you would, that is extremely useful and very, very difficult to produce on your own?
02:50:39.000 Disinfectant.
02:50:40.000 Like alcohol.
02:50:41.000 So we bought a bunch of alcohol and mouthwash.
02:50:45.000 It's not impossible.
02:50:45.000 Yeah.
02:50:47.000 It's actually relatively easy to make alcohol.
02:50:50.000 You have to build a still relatively people can't do it.
02:50:53.000 Exactly.
02:50:54.000 So I bought a book that teaches you how to build a still.
02:50:56.000 Food I can figure out.
02:50:58.000 I'm not saying it's perfect, but you can hunting, fishing, and chickens and general farming.
02:51:03.000 But food, you have a general idea of how you get food and how you make food.
02:51:07.000 But what about antiseptics?
02:51:08.000 Yeah.
02:51:09.000 What if the first thing that you cut?
02:51:11.000 When COVID happens, the first thing you stocked up on.
02:51:13.000 I mean, Washington Post is outright saying that people are hedging away from the dollar.
02:51:17.000 Someone knows something.
02:51:19.000 You don't go from 30 bucks to 115 in a couple of weeks.
02:51:23.000 I just saw stories popping up on X earlier today that countries are getting prepared to take away capital gains taxes on crypto.
02:51:30.000 Like a bunch of countries right now are doing it.
02:51:33.000 Sounds like something's going to have to change, man.
02:51:34.000 We're about to have a one world currency.
02:51:36.000 Let's guess what's going to happen from this.
02:51:39.000 I think the U.S. dollar is going to completely collapse.
02:51:41.000 I think Bitcoin will become the global reserve and some form of crypto will become the international trade medium.
02:51:47.000 It's so.
02:51:48.000 And I say this because the Davos, people at the Dava at WEF in 2017 told me that's what was going to happen.
02:51:53.000 It's so if you had to advise somebody, like an average anonymy, not like a super wealthy person.
02:51:58.000 I wouldn't advise anybody anything.
02:51:59.000 I'd say.
02:52:00.000 If you were forced to, what would you say is a good thing to do?
02:52:01.000 I'd say what for this I would do is have Bitcoin and Ethereum gold and silver because that's what I did.
02:52:11.000 And holy shit.
02:52:13.000 I bought a bunch of silver, a shitload of it.
02:52:17.000 And I can't believe the price that it's at right now.
02:52:19.000 Silver is awesome.
02:52:20.000 But that doesn't mean silver is up.
02:52:21.000 It means the dollar is gone.
02:52:23.000 So what I understand, I went to the World Economic Forum.
02:52:26.000 Here's a funny story.
02:52:26.000 I went to the World Economic Forum in 2017.
02:52:28.000 I did three videos.
02:52:29.000 They got all erased from YouTube.
02:52:31.000 I have no idea.
02:52:31.000 Why?
02:52:32.000 Do you still have crypto?
02:52:33.000 I still have them.
02:52:34.000 You don't have to have them.
02:52:34.000 They're gone.
02:52:35.000 I still have a lot of them.
02:52:36.000 Sounds like a national security issue.
02:52:38.000 And globalist bullshit.
02:52:40.000 I'll tell you what happened.
02:52:42.000 I did interviews with people where they basically said, our plan for the future is crypto.
02:52:46.000 Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
02:52:48.000 This is how you create a one-world currency.
02:52:51.000 If you go to the people and say, your government's come together and we've decided we're all going to share currency, it doesn't work.
02:52:55.000 Look what happened with the peseta in Spain when the Euro came out.
02:52:59.000 Basically, the story is that if a newspaper costs one peseta, when they introduced the euro and now it costs one euro, that's fine, right?
02:53:06.000 Except the problem is for Spain to buy a Euro, it costs three peseta.
02:53:09.000 So when they were doing the conversion, it slashed the economy of Spain by 60 some odd percent.
02:53:14.000 So this resulted in protests, unemployment, destabilization.
02:53:18.000 And so they said, in order for us to have a one-world currency, you need to have economic normalization between the countries first.
02:53:25.000 That's why Ukraine's not being admitted immediately.
02:53:27.000 Its economy is too weak.
02:53:28.000 And if they open the borders, everyone's going to flood the rest of the country and Ukraine collapses.
02:53:32.000 The other issue is people don't trust government currency.
02:53:36.000 So the plan is you introduce an anti-establishment currency alternative.
02:53:43.000 Bitcoin.
02:53:43.000 Satashi Nakamoto.
02:53:44.000 You know what that means?
02:53:46.000 Central Intelligence Agency.
02:53:48.000 Did you know that?
02:53:49.000 It does.
02:53:50.000 Satashi Nakamoto translates to it's like agency of central intelligence or something like that.
02:53:50.000 Yes.
02:53:56.000 Or like hub of central intelligence.
02:53:59.000 That's crazy.
02:53:59.000 Yep.
02:54:00.000 I'm looking it up right now.
02:54:01.000 And yeah.
02:54:02.000 So what I was told by people in Davos, I wasn't in the World Economic Forum, I was in the United States.
02:54:08.000 When your business again?
02:54:09.000 Okay.
02:54:09.000 2017.
02:54:10.000 They said the goal is to have a one-world currency, a one-world reserve that can be controlled, tracked, traced.
02:54:17.000 We can see what everyone's doing and why they're doing it.
02:54:19.000 And crypto is that plan.
02:54:21.000 Bitcoin is going to be it.
02:54:22.000 It's going to be huge.
02:54:23.000 Buy Bitcoin now.
02:54:24.000 And so I was like, well, I got a bunch already.
02:54:26.000 And so what I think is happening is there's a lot of things going on.
02:54:32.000 It's hard to see the big picture.
02:54:33.000 There's little pieces everywhere.
02:54:35.000 However, if you wanted a one-world currency, what would you do?
02:54:38.000 You'd introduce the secret cyber, cyberpunk alternative.
02:54:44.000 Get away from the Federal Reserve.
02:54:46.000 These evil people.
02:54:47.000 They can't control us.
02:54:49.000 We're going to all use Bitcoin, which can be tracked by every AI system and they'll know what you do every time you do it, when you do it, and where you are at all times.
02:54:57.000 I want all my currency tracked in the public, unhidable.
02:55:02.000 And it's really simple.
02:55:05.000 You get the whack-a-loon anti-government people to adopt it first, which they did.
02:55:10.000 And then it becomes the anti-establishment coin, challenges the big banks.
02:55:13.000 The institutions say, don't buy Bitcoin.
02:55:16.000 It's bad.
02:55:16.000 Then the dollar collapses.
02:55:18.000 Bitcoin becomes the international trade medium.
02:55:20.000 I wonder if they're going to, they might try and stuff Ripple in there.
02:55:23.000 It doesn't matter, though.
02:55:24.000 If they don't.
02:55:25.000 Crypto can be.
02:55:25.000 Yeah, we got a good caller.
02:55:26.000 So Dr. Pants, do you want to add anything or shout anything out before we go?
02:55:30.000 Or just shout anything?
02:55:31.000 I just want to shout out my podcast, The Landlocked Surfers.
02:55:34.000 We just dropped an episode on the social questions raised by the cyberpunk genre like post-humanism, transhumanism.
02:55:40.000 And we would love to have people follow us on Spotify and on X at Landlock Surf.
02:55:45.000 Thanks.
02:55:46.000 Right on.
02:55:46.000 Thanks for calling in, brother.
02:55:48.000 Thank you so much.
02:55:50.000 All right.
