Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Canada Moves To Effectively Ban ALL HANDGUNS w-Sharyl Attkisson & Carrie Sheffield

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:41.000 this video is going viral and it shows Justin Trudeau announced a new

00:01:06.000 legislation in Canada that will freeze importing buying or selling handguns

00:01:11.000 effectively banning them but all but banning them Oh, if you have one, fine, but you can't get a new one, you can't bring a new one in, you can't make it, you can't sell it, you can't buy it.

00:01:20.000 That's it.

00:01:21.000 It is one of the most shocking moves I've seen.

00:01:23.000 Now, we're not Canada.

00:01:25.000 We're the United States.

00:01:25.000 But the conversation is certainly happening here in the U.S., where we've got people, outright, prominent liberal personalities saying, ban all guns.

00:01:33.000 And then other liberals are saying, like, nobody wants to ban all the guns.

00:01:36.000 And I'm like, did you listen to what they just said?

00:01:38.000 Joe Biden came out and said no one should have a nine millimeter.

00:01:41.000 If you're not familiar with what that is, it's like a Glock.

00:01:43.000 It's the handgun that cops use.

00:01:44.000 It's extremely common.

00:01:45.000 It's probably one of the most common handgun rounds.

00:01:48.000 And it's small, and he called it high-caliber.

00:01:50.000 And it'll blow out your lung!

00:01:51.000 Nobody should have it!

00:01:52.000 Here we go. 0.97

00:01:53.000 Yeah, if someone shoots you in the lung with a bullet, it's going to destroy your lung. 0.99

00:01:57.000 But blow it out of your body? 0.94

00:01:59.000 Oh, that's what he was saying.

00:02:00.000 Well, that's brilliant.

00:02:02.000 Weapons expert Joe Biden, you let out two blasts!

00:02:05.000 As he said to his wife.

00:02:07.000 So we'll talk about that.

00:02:08.000 We've got a kid in Florida, 10 years old, was arrested for making a joke to his friend about buying rifles.

00:02:15.000 And they published the kid's name and face, which is kind of shocking.

00:02:18.000 We've got inflation is obviously the huge issue, so they can try and talk about guns all day and night.

00:02:23.000 It's not really having a big impact.

00:02:24.000 And I think we're gonna have to talk about a couple things.

00:02:26.000 We got Paramount Plus sponsoring a drag event where a child is dancing on stage for money from the audience.

00:02:32.000 And then we've got the Ethan Klein story where last week he called for a terror attack against the NRA convention before quickly walking it back and telling people not to do it.

00:02:43.000 He then went on to tell people to commit other acts of violence.

00:02:47.000 And then had to walk that back, and I don't even know what we're allowed to explain because YouTube might, like, explaining what he said to do, I don't know if we can do that.

00:02:56.000 So we'll talk about all that, and I just want to shout out Matt Walsh, because I watched, I got an advanced screener of What Is A Woman.

00:03:03.000 It was so good.

00:03:05.000 It was absolutely incredible.

00:03:06.000 They did an amazing job editing that documentary.

00:03:08.000 So, uh, this is, this is not like a paid spot or anything.

00:03:11.000 I just, I got to watch it and I was really impressed.

00:03:13.000 I thought it was really good.

00:03:14.000 It was shocking.

00:03:15.000 It was funny.

00:03:16.000 And that's going to, they're, they're putting that out on June 1st.

00:03:18.000 So just as an aside, I'm, I want to talk about it so bad, but I can't cause it's not out yet.

00:03:22.000 Anyway, we're going to talk about related things though.

00:03:24.000 Joining us, we have a couple of journalists.

00:03:26.000 We have Cheryl Atkinson. 1.00

00:03:28.000 Hello.

00:03:29.000 With a voice this time.

00:03:30.000 That's right.

00:03:30.000 Would you like to introduce yourself?

00:03:32.000 Yes.

00:03:33.000 I'm an independent journalist formerly of CNN, CBS, PBS, you name it, local news.

00:03:41.000 Kind of on my own with a Sunday TV show we feed to 43 million households every Sunday now on various affiliates around the country.

00:03:48.000 Awesome.

00:03:48.000 Right on.

00:03:49.000 Reformed mainstream journalist.

00:03:51.000 I'm still the same.

00:03:53.000 It's everybody else changed.

00:03:54.000 I agree.

00:03:55.000 We also have Carrie Sheffield.

00:03:57.000 Hey everybody, good to be back.

00:03:58.000 Thanks for having me.

00:04:00.000 I love that today's Memorial Day and I'm by the flag.

00:04:02.000 Thank you very much.

00:04:03.000 And I want to say thank you to all our veterans and the men.

00:04:06.000 And I want to say, I was talking about this with Lydia earlier, that real masculinity is not toxic.

00:04:11.000 And it was real men who stormed the beaches and saved us in World War II.

00:04:15.000 And we owe them all a debt of gratitude.

00:04:17.000 I work for Independent Women's Forum. We're a group that loves men, a women's

00:04:21.000 group that loves men. Can't say that. And we're working on some issues which I'll

00:04:25.000 get into to preserve women's rights. What is a man? An adult male.

00:04:33.000 It's not that complicated.

00:04:38.000 My name is Seamus Coughlin.

00:04:39.000 I have been absent for about a week.

00:04:41.000 I am back.

00:04:42.000 I apologize for leaving.

00:04:43.000 I hope you can all accept that apology and welcome me back into your hearts because I've got some good news!

00:04:48.000 They said no.

00:04:48.000 Too bad.

00:04:52.000 I'm imposing myself upon this family.

00:04:55.000 Very good news.

00:04:56.000 We just launched FreedomTunes.com.

00:04:59.000 We officially have a website up.

00:05:01.000 The public videos are still being hosted from YouTube, but we're working on moving that over.

00:05:05.000 And we have a members-only section, where for five bucks a month, you will get one new cartoon each week that the public doesn't get, only donors get.

00:05:12.000 You will also get two behind-the-scenes videos.

00:05:14.000 And you will be supporting the show without needing to use Patreon or some other platform controlled by Big Tech.

00:05:19.000 And there's like five cartoons up there already and a bunch of behind the scenes stuff if you guys want to go check

00:05:23.000 that out.

00:05:24.000 Including Tim and I doing some improv.

00:05:26.000 Or actually that's going to be up in two days.

00:05:28.000 Which one was that weird?

00:05:29.000 The one where we like basically came up with...

00:05:32.000 I gave you the rough...

00:05:33.000 The really offensive one?

00:05:35.000 I wouldn't go that far.

00:05:35.000 I said improper.

00:05:37.000 I sent Tim a rough script for the Fauci cartoon we did with the voicemails, and we improvved a bunch of it.

00:05:44.000 That's going to be up in a couple days.

00:05:44.000 It's really funny.

00:05:46.000 We improvised Fauci as a casting director in Los Angeles, but Seamus said it went too far.

00:05:50.000 Yes, no.

00:05:50.000 No, I did not.

00:05:51.000 It went too far.

00:05:51.000 I didn't go with that one.

00:05:52.000 Interesting.

00:05:53.000 But we did go with Fauci blowing up the voicemail at the mainstream media.

00:05:58.000 That was funny too, though.

00:05:59.000 That was awesome.

00:05:59.000 Thank you, thank you.

00:06:00.000 And I am also here in the corner with these two lovely ladies. 0.98

00:06:03.000 Very excited to hear what they have to say.

00:06:04.000 Excited to hear about this women's bill that they're coming up with over at the Independent Women's Forum.

00:06:09.000 Hopefully we can get into that this evening.

00:06:10.000 Absolutely.

00:06:48.000 Let's read that first story!

00:06:50.000 Probably one of the most shocking stories I've seen in a long time.

00:06:52.000 I couldn't believe it when I saw this video.

00:06:54.000 Trudeau announces national plan to freeze importing, buying, or selling handguns.

00:07:00.000 Now what really freaked me out about this is the way that he actually reads it.

00:07:04.000 Let me see if I- I'm gonna play this video for you guys.

00:07:06.000 Listen to this.

00:07:07.000 We're introducing legislation to implement a national freeze on handgun ownership.

00:07:15.000 What this means is that it will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer, or import handguns anywhere in Canada.

00:07:28.000 In other words, we're capping the market for handguns.

00:07:35.000 I think that's enough.

00:07:36.000 I don't want to listen to any more of that man.

00:07:37.000 Yeah, really.

00:07:38.000 The whispery, feathery way he's talking.

00:07:41.000 We're capping handgun market.

00:07:44.000 He sounds like a Bond villain.

00:07:47.000 This is really creepy stuff.

00:07:48.000 Seeing all these people post online about banning guns outright.

00:07:52.000 Then they come out and say, nobody's trying to ban your guns.

00:07:54.000 They're literally trying to ban your guns.

00:07:57.000 And I think the important context here is that I think we've seen from history what happens every single time guns get banned.

00:08:03.000 Well, I don't understand, yes, what one has to do with the other.

00:08:07.000 I'm certainly interested in a rational discussion about what needs to be done after these tragedies.

00:08:12.000 I think a lot of people are.

00:08:14.000 But to jump ahead to something like what does this have to do with Canada and banning guns?

00:08:18.000 What does the tragedy in Texas have to do with that?

00:08:21.000 Well, I don't think it does.

00:08:22.000 I think we're just seeing the scale at which this ideology wants to go.

00:08:28.000 So in the United States, they know they can't come out and say, ban all the guns, because nobody wants that.

00:08:35.000 In the United States, they know they can't say that.

00:08:37.000 In Canada, they can just do it.

00:08:40.000 Do they want it in Canada?

00:08:41.000 Is it different there?

00:08:43.000 I can't speak for Canadians.

00:08:44.000 He got a lot of applause in the room.

00:08:46.000 Well, he introduced the bill.

00:08:47.000 It was a bill, so we'll see what happens with the lawmakers.

00:08:50.000 But yeah, I mean, it's just bizarre.

00:08:55.000 But it's still nothing new under the sun.

00:08:57.000 I mean, we've seen this from other regimes, and it is...

00:09:01.000 Fascism, when the government wants to take control of the firearms and take them away from the people.

00:09:05.000 And what I find hypocritical is people who were cheering, you know, the Ukrainians all arming themselves and just saying this is a great thing. 0.93

00:09:12.000 You know, good for them for arming themselves. 0.96

00:09:15.000 You know, the hypocrisy. 0.96

00:09:17.000 They're posting videos of child soldiers in Ukraine, praising them.

00:09:20.000 And I'm just like, man, this got dark real quick.

00:09:22.000 Wow.

00:09:23.000 I mean, isn't Ukraine the exact reason why some people here say we should not be disarmed?

00:09:29.000 The very thing that's happened to the Ukrainians, it could be argued, which is they taught right before the invasion of Russia, they were actually training the local citizens and how to use their weapons in combat that they already had.

00:09:42.000 It almost makes the case for the opposite of what they're arguing now.

00:09:46.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:09:46.000 Well, and not just Ukraine.

00:09:48.000 The rioting that happened for months on end in this country that was praised by the left wing.

00:09:53.000 They sit there and tell us that rioting is an acceptable response when politics doesn't go their way, basically.

00:09:58.000 And then they turn around and tell you, what, a couple weeks to months later, oh, you have no reason to own a firearm.

00:10:04.000 Let me send you a therapist.

00:10:05.000 During the George Floyd riots, there was a guy in New York who called 911 because people

00:10:10.000 were breaking into his apartment building and fighting.

00:10:13.000 And he said, I need help.

00:10:15.000 The dispatcher said, sir, let me send you a therapist.

00:10:18.000 They said the city is under attack.

00:10:20.000 What would you have us do?

00:10:23.000 Good luck.

00:10:24.000 I mean, these people vote for this stuff.

00:10:26.000 Or they ignore it and let it happen.

00:10:28.000 And then, when danger comes a knockin', you ain't got no one to count on.

00:10:31.000 So we saw- here's the fascinating thing about all of the gun control stuff, is that there are people currently arguing for gun control when we just saw the police in the Yuvaldi incident not go in, but use their authority to stop the parents from going in who were armed.

00:10:45.000 Disgusting.

00:10:46.000 Which is what gun control is, by the way.

00:10:48.000 Allowing the criminals to have guns, but preventing people who want to protect themselves and their families from having guns.

00:10:54.000 And so, another take I saw from a number of lefties was, this proves that the AR-15 is too dangerous because he had one and so the police were too afraid to stop him.

00:11:03.000 Firstly, many of those officers had ARs.

00:11:06.000 But secondly, if the AR-15 is too dangerous and terrifying for a police officer to go up against, who's going to confiscate them?

00:11:12.000 How are you going to ban them?

00:11:13.000 That's a great question.

00:11:15.000 Well, that's the problem, again, with the Canadian proposal.

00:11:18.000 You're taking care of something that's not happened yet.

00:11:22.000 You're not taking care of the stuff that they're complaining about now, which is the current ownership of guns there.

00:11:26.000 Can't do anything about that.

00:11:28.000 You know what, though?

00:11:28.000 Watching these people, these liberals, try and ban guns, because I always say this.

00:11:33.000 The leftists want guns.

00:11:35.000 Karl Marx said to keep guns.

00:11:36.000 The leftists typically want them. 0.96

00:11:38.000 The funny thing about it is that they're so ignorant of guns, gun policy, gun mechanics, that they're actually losing.

00:11:44.000 Now, they win some things, like Maryland has banned the M1A, and it's like, for what reason? 0.95

00:11:49.000 What does that accomplish? 0.92

00:11:50.000 It's ridiculous. 0.94

00:11:52.000 But...

00:11:54.000 36 states have permitless open carry.

00:11:57.000 25 states have constitutional carry.

00:11:59.000 Florida is soon to be the 26th state with constitutional carry.

00:12:02.000 So while the liberals are screaming banning assault weapons, they can't define what assault weapon is, so nothing happens.

00:12:09.000 And then on the right, they're enacting constitutional carry at the state level.

00:12:13.000 And so now you have 36 states, permitless open carry.

00:12:18.000 I mean, that's kind of crazy.

00:12:19.000 We used to, if you look in the 80s, There was no concealed carry.

00:12:23.000 Now, almost every single state has to allow concealed carry.

00:12:27.000 And 25 are constitutional, meaning you can just, if you live in the state, you don't need a permit at all.

00:12:30.000 You can conceal if you want.

00:12:32.000 So they're losing.

00:12:33.000 And no matter how many times we scream that you're ignorant of the laws, they don't pay attention. 0.99

00:12:37.000 So let them ban the ridiculous nonsense and lose. 0.98

00:12:39.000 So here's what's sick about it also, when you're talking about the Soros-funded prosecutors who are going and picking and choosing which laws they want to enforce. 0.95

00:12:48.000 So, you know, in Los Angeles or New York or St.

00:12:52.000 Louis, you could theoretically have, you know, one of their prosecutors choose to enforce these gun laws, but then let, you know, a rapist walk free because we need restorative justice.

00:13:05.000 And that's disgusting, throwing the book at things that, you know, whatever political Marxist agenda you have.

00:13:13.000 And then let's talk about what really happens behind the scenes, because I'm really big on the notion that I've had so many Democrats and Republicans confess that what they do on Capitol Hill, they often agree on behind the scenes, but just not in front of everybody.

00:13:25.000 And when I broke the Fast and Furious scandal about the government, in essence, gun running drugs, guns to Mexico illegally went before they admitted they were doing that.

00:13:34.000 Initially at CBS, it was a Democrat leader of a committee on the Senate side that contacted me that wanted to follow up on that story, as sometimes they do when they sense there's a big story coming.

00:13:46.000 And Republicans also called me, and I shared public information that I had on the story, happy to make the story get more information.

00:13:53.000 They can issue subpoenas and interview people that I can't get on camera.

00:13:59.000 But the Democrats quickly bowed out and it was clear it confused me at the time but in retrospect a decision had been made and a staffer actually told me a Democrat staffer in the Senate that this was not a good issue for them because they couldn't figure out how it played with the gun control crowd and the gun control issue and that they had a lot of constituents that support guns and they and I said aren't some issues just this to me wasn't a gun control issue this was the government corruption and all kinds of stuff I said aren't some issues bigger than that debate But it was also covering for Obama, too.

00:14:30.000 That was part of it, too.

00:14:31.000 Well, the staffer's answer was, you'd like to think so, when I said, aren't some issues bigger than that than politics?

00:14:39.000 So break down the Fast and the Furious scandal for those that aren't familiar.

00:14:43.000 Well, this was the government got caught through a whistleblower with ATF.

00:14:47.000 I think it was unprecedented that a sitting federal agent came forward and spoke to me on camera about it.

00:14:53.000 They had been knowingly selling guns, putting them in the hands of the Mexican drug cartels.

00:14:59.000 And it was misreported and is still frequently misreported today that there was sort of a sting operation, that they were trying to track the guns to the bad cartel guys and lost track of them.

00:15:10.000 They didn't attempt to track most of the guns.

00:15:11.000 That was the problem.

00:15:13.000 And they were, in essence, arming the Sinaloa cartel down in Mexico, which isn't really a stretch of the imagination looking back, that we often take sides when there are warring factions in countries.

00:15:24.000 And we were choosing the Sinaloa cartel, apparently, over the Zeta cartel, which were affiliated with terrorists and we perceived as worse.

00:15:31.000 But regardless, the government was using this issue of guns showing up in Mexico Not telling anybody we were moving them there and saying, look, we need gun control here in the United States because we're selling guns and they're ending up in Mexico, knowing all along that they were putting them there.

00:15:46.000 And this was Obama.

00:15:47.000 Yeah, under Obama.

00:15:49.000 And, you know, a lot of those guns killed a lot of people, including a border patrol agent.

00:15:53.000 That's why an agent stepped forward because he had said, and some of the gun shops that knew this was happening, that ATF was allowing it to happen, were saying, This is going to come back and shoot a federal agent.

00:16:05.000 Someone's going to get killed with one of these guns and quite a few people got killed with those guns.

00:16:09.000 So to recap, they would rather arm Mexican cartels who will kill US ATF agents while take away the guns of law-abiding Americans. 0.72

00:16:19.000 They'd rather arm the Taliban. 0.95

00:16:20.000 Yeah. Yeah. They'd rather arm the Mujahideen, right? 1.00

00:16:24.000 They'd rather arm ISIS. What was it, $8 billion of equipment?

00:16:26.000 Yeah, exactly. I mean, our government has this very interesting habit of funding and

00:16:30.000 arming groups that end up killing Americans. Hmm. Sus.

00:16:33.000 How did you find out it was a whistleblower who came forward?

00:16:38.000 This, to this day, I don't know who tipped me off.

00:16:41.000 I got a one-paragraph tip in the mail, a letter that said, Senator Grassley is looking into this.

00:16:49.000 And it briefly described something that sounded plausible, but so many of my stories start out that way.

00:16:54.000 And I called Senator Grassley's office.

00:16:56.000 I knew he had a whistleblower.

00:16:58.000 And Grassley's office at the time would not cooperate with me for various reasons.

00:17:02.000 And I identified the whistleblower, his girlfriend at the time.

00:17:06.000 She called me, because I did sort of a generic story with what I knew, because that will stir the pot and bring out other sources sometimes.

00:17:13.000 She called me out of the blue, and I wrote down the number it came in on at CBS.

00:17:17.000 And she said, my boyfriend is a source on this, and he may want to talk to you, but not today.

00:17:24.000 And he never called back.

00:17:25.000 She said he might call in the next day or two.

00:17:27.000 And I had written down the number, and I called back two days later when I really needed that next story and knew there was something serious going on.

00:17:35.000 And I said, I think I know who he is.

00:17:36.000 And I had done enough poking around of who the teams were that were working on these issues in Arizona and so on.

00:17:43.000 And he got on the phone with me and I said, I know you're probably John Dodson.

00:17:47.000 And he said, whoa, you know, and it was.

00:17:49.000 And it took a lot of doing to convince him to go on camera as a sitting federal agent.

00:17:54.000 He's been made to pay ever since.

00:17:56.000 Now, they didn't fire him because members of Congress stepped in, primarily Grassley's office,

00:18:01.000 every time he got threatened.

00:18:03.000 But he's been held out as a dog when he should be the hero that

00:18:06.000 everybody emulates to blow the whistle when bad stuff and murder, you know, may be happening as a result of things

00:18:12.000 the government has done, but instead he's been treated just horribly, and that's the lesson that was sent out to other

00:18:18.000 federal agents that might blow the whistle.

00:18:20.000 A good journalist should be a conspiracy theorist, to a certain degree.

00:18:23.000 You have to be because you learn that, for me anyway, most of what I hear will not turn out to be true,

00:18:30.000 and I try to disprove it on its face.

00:18:33.000 So when I hear the Fast and Furious tips, I start going about trying to disprove the story and when I can't, then I start seeing if I can prove it.

00:18:41.000 But you do have to believe My funny story is my husband's former law enforcement.

00:18:47.000 He's a lawyer and I would come home and tell him about a tip I got or a story I'm working on over the years and he would always go, that's just crazy!

00:18:55.000 That can't be true!

00:18:56.000 And he said that about Fast and Furious and I said, You know, we always say that, and then sometimes they are.

00:19:02.000 Well, what I think is also very upsetting is the weapons flowing from the other direction.

00:19:07.000 So a lot of the illegal firearms coming up from Mexico, but because the left doesn't want to shut down our border, those are coming and circulating in our inner cities.

00:19:15.000 Especially, you know, for white liberals who say they care about our inner cities and, you know, violence for black Americans in predominantly minority neighborhoods.

00:19:25.000 But they will not close down the border. 0.93

00:19:27.000 And to me, that's white supremacy, right? 0.98

00:19:29.000 You don't care about black lives. 0.99

00:19:31.000 When black lives are being killed by illegal firearms from Mexico, where are the protests? 0.99

00:19:35.000 I never hear about this.

00:19:37.000 I don't think it should be shocking to anybody that the people who advocate for slowing population growth are in favor of things that inhibit population growth.

00:19:48.000 They're in favor of children being sterilized, they're in favor of abortion, and they're in favor of destroying economies which stagnate growth. 0.61

00:19:55.000 Well, as you know, again, as a journalist, you like to poo poo stuff and me in the early part of my career in particular, and then so many of the things turn out to be true.

00:20:04.000 And I think of the something somebody tweeted not long ago that became my favorite tweet, which said, I have to find some new conspiracy theories.

00:20:12.000 Because all my old ones came true.

00:20:14.000 Yeah, no, it's repeatedly happened with respect to, I mean, many things surrounding COVID-19.

00:20:14.000 Oh, that's a good one.

00:20:19.000 The lab leak hypothesis is one I bring up pretty frequently, but it's also insane that it was so straightforward and clear as an explanation that it leaked from a laboratory because the disease was first discovered near that laboratory, near a virology institute.

00:20:35.000 They're like, No, it came from a bat.

00:20:37.000 And you're actually... A thousand miles away. 0.93

00:20:39.000 A thousand miles away, and you're the crazy one if you don't believe that. 0.99

00:20:44.000 Gaslighting. 0.98

00:20:45.000 Here's what Trudeau said.

00:20:46.000 He said, Other than using firearms for sport shooting and for hunting, there is no reason anyone in Canada should need guns in their everyday lives.

00:20:55.000 That's amazing.

00:20:56.000 What's the Canadian Constitution say about guns, if anything?

00:20:59.000 I don't think it does.

00:21:00.000 Not enough.

00:21:01.000 Yeah, probably nothing.

00:21:02.000 But, you know, Canada, man, oof.

00:21:06.000 They vote for it.

00:21:08.000 I think we're lucky in a lot of ways that Canada is doing what they're doing so that we can see.

00:21:13.000 We get to watch all the stuff that's going on in that country.

00:21:16.000 Well, I'm just excited to see what the truckers are going to do next.

00:21:19.000 I don't know.

00:21:21.000 We'll see if this even makes it through because it is just a bill.

00:21:24.000 Also, I thought his country was just taken over by a bunch of supposedly fascist truckers who were honking their horns in the name of white supremacy or something, and he's like, there's no reason anyone would need to protect themselves in this country.

00:21:35.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:21:36.000 Both of those things don't fit together.

00:21:36.000 It's a great point.

00:21:38.000 Now, obviously, it's because he knows that the truckers were not actually dangerous with respect to the physical health and safety of his citizens, the way they wanted to make it sound.

00:21:46.000 They were just dangerous to the social order he was seeking to establish.

00:21:49.000 And so was owning a firearm.

00:21:51.000 You know, I want to bring up the story about Ethan Klein.

00:21:53.000 Oh, yeah.

00:21:54.000 Ethan Klein is a podcaster.

00:21:55.000 He's particularly prominent, and he recently called for a terror attack against the NRA, and it's funny.

00:22:02.000 Ethan Klein has been calling for, you know, gun restrictions, gun control, but he's just, on his own podcast, exemplified exactly why people probably need guns for self-defense.

00:22:14.000 On his show last week, YouTuber Ethan Klein calls for bombing of NRA conference.

00:22:20.000 Klein prefaced his calls for violence by promoting sales of his new shirts, which read, end gun violence.

00:22:24.000 So he immediately walks it back.

00:22:28.000 I don't want to play it because I think YouTube doesn't allow this stuff, even in this context.

00:22:33.000 There's a few things I want to point out about this.

00:22:37.000 Allied liberals in the media are saying, Ethan Klein was joking about doing it.

00:22:41.000 His wife says, I feel hopeless, like there's nothing we can do, I'm paraphrasing.

00:22:45.000 Then he says, does anyone know what's going on with that NRA conference?

00:22:49.000 Calls for extreme violence against it.

00:22:51.000 His wife then says, mm-hmm.

00:22:53.000 That's what, the mm-hmm is what really got me.

00:22:55.000 I'm like, yo!

00:22:56.000 He just said to, told your audience of millions of people to commit a terror attack, and you were just like, mm-hmm?

00:23:02.000 No, no, no.

00:23:03.000 His producer apparently said something, and then he immediately walks it back like, okay, no, no, no, don't do that, don't do that.

00:23:08.000 Apparently during the show as well, he told people to fire guns into the air.

00:23:12.000 What?

00:23:13.000 And then when he was also told, like, no, don't do that, the bolts come back down, he said, okay, well, blanks.

00:23:19.000 Just fire blanks.

00:23:20.000 He called for, uh, sticking a piece of wood into the Texas governor's wheelchair to cause him physical injury, I guess.

00:23:27.000 The video ends up getting taken down.

00:23:29.000 He's been suspended from YouTube for a week.

00:23:32.000 And his immediate reaction was to say, you know, he doesn't believe in violence, but Republicans are the party of dead children, and that now they're harassing them and sending them death threats, and they're anti-Semites.

00:23:40.000 So, it's- it's mind-numbing, you know, that this is the- the current state of politics.

00:23:46.000 I genuinely- I- I- Seriously, I- I wonder why it is people would be entertained or, like, that- they would like that idea.

00:23:53.000 Yeah, I- I don't know who would watch a show like that and be like, yes, that's a- that's a good thing and I will defend that.

00:23:58.000 There's a lot of people, apparently.

00:23:59.000 You know, this is the story of the past six years.

00:24:04.000 One side telling the other what they shouldn't do, but at the same time advocating for much the same themselves.

00:24:09.000 It just doesn't make a lot of sense, but there's an audience for it, apparently.

00:24:14.000 Kathy Griffin with the Trump head, severed head. 0.63

00:24:17.000 Madonna saying she wants to blow up the White House. 0.98

00:24:20.000 Snoop Dogg shooting.

00:24:22.000 Coventry Kids wood chipper.

00:24:27.000 People like this can make threats towards anyone whose political views are unpopular and that's considered completely socially acceptable, which is kind of one of the reasons you need to arm yourself.

00:24:35.000 Well, right, so my response now is if anyone ever says, why would anyone in this country need a gun, I would say, because a popular liberal YouTuber called for a terror attack on a convention, because a guy who worked for Disney called for throwing children into a wood chipper, Because a comedian who does CNN's New Year's showed herself a mock holding up the severed head of the president.

00:24:57.000 You know, I can go on, but as long as they want to say stuff like that, I'm going to exercise my right to keep them in their arms.

00:25:07.000 Look, we've gotten death threats.

00:25:09.000 We've gotten swatted eight or so times.

00:25:12.000 We've had the bomb squad come out here.

00:25:15.000 These people are not doing themselves any justice by saying there's no reason to have guns when they are, you know, advocating for or calling for violence.

00:25:22.000 And then you see the George Floyd riots.

00:25:24.000 And then as I'll say that, I'll be like, well, why would people need guns?

00:25:28.000 Because in 2020, we saw the worst race riots we've seen in the past 50 years with over $2 billion in tract damage.

00:25:36.000 Probably more damage than that, but the insurance companies only paid up to that much.

00:25:40.000 You saw around 26 to 30 or so dead people from those riots.

00:25:44.000 I kind of think the left is They've absolutely done everything in their power to make sure we truly understand why we need guns.

00:25:51.000 Well, yeah, they call for insurrection and threaten to riot every single time something doesn't go their way.

00:25:56.000 But we remember what happened also during the riots.

00:25:59.000 When the police were called, they wouldn't go into some areas.

00:26:02.000 You were left to your own devices.

00:26:04.000 There were business owners that thought, all I want to do is kind of guard my storefront and I'll call the police if there's an attack.

00:26:10.000 And they did so.

00:26:12.000 And the police couldn't or wouldn't come in there.

00:26:15.000 Yeah, that seemed to prove the point.

00:26:16.000 And then you have David Dorn, who was murdered trying to protect, you know, he was an off or retired cop and tried to protect his friend's pawn shop during those riots.

00:26:24.000 And he was murdered, you know, so.

00:26:28.000 And I think what's also upsetting is the the exact opposite with Trump and January 6th.

00:26:34.000 And in his language, it was the not even remotely anything like what this Klan guy is saying.

00:26:40.000 He was saying very normal things that politicians say when they're upset about elections and

00:26:46.000 using the same sort of language.

00:26:48.000 And then he also said, I think it was up to at least 10,000 National Guard troops I want

00:26:53.000 there.

00:26:54.000 And it was Nancy Pelosi who turned them down.

00:26:56.000 So everything is twisted, exactly the opposite.

00:27:01.000 You know what I was thinking when I was seeing the story about Ethan and Atri podcast is

00:27:05.000 that he got started by doing edgy comedy on Reddit and YouTube.

00:27:10.000 No political background, not well-versed in politics, but because politics has become pop culture, he's adopted politics.

00:27:17.000 So now he's getting more political because this is what people care about.

00:27:21.000 I mean, the market dictates.

00:27:22.000 For me, it's kind of the other direction.

00:27:24.000 I started with political activism, working at nonprofits, and then moved into media.

00:27:29.000 So I think for me, it's like, I come from a place where I've lived it, I've experienced it, I've been reading about it, I've been actually advocating for policy back, you know, when I used to do the non-profit stuff, and now here I'm in media talking about all this, and there's a large conversation.

00:27:43.000 Ethan Klein's podcast has comparable viewership to our podcast.

00:27:46.000 And so he's got millions of followers who watch this, but they're getting a pop culture perspective on political

00:27:51.000 issues with limited knowledge and very short relative knowledge.

00:27:56.000 So, you know, we've had some of these leftists on the show.

00:27:59.000 They're like, I was too young during Joe Biden. I don't remember Obama. I was 12.

00:28:03.000 You know, it's like 22 now. I have no idea what happened.

00:28:06.000 And so, you know, for many of us, especially the people who watched in the key demo, we remember what it was like under

00:28:13.000 Obama, under Biden.

00:28:14.000 We remember the killing of the Americans without charge or trial, the killing of American children, the drone strikes on civilians.

00:28:21.000 We remember the corrupt dealings.

00:28:23.000 Many people have no idea.

00:28:25.000 So you'll get someone like Ethan Klein, I think he's like a year older than me.

00:28:28.000 Doing a show where all of a sudden he's in politics, it would be akin to me one day saying, we're a football podcast now, because people like football and we're going to talk about football.

00:28:36.000 Yeah, we'd retain viewership, we'd slowly start building up that audience, but I have no idea anything about football.

00:28:41.000 Well, it's scary to realize, as I do, I'm probably the oldest person in this room, that there are people that don't remember 10 years ago.

00:28:49.000 If people started watching the news, and there's obviously a whole generation of kids, That wasn't watching news until 2016 and post, which is, I think, when there was one of the biggest, fastest transformations of what we see as news with all the fake fact checks and so on and the bias.

00:29:06.000 That's all they know.

00:29:07.000 That's what they think the news does.

00:29:08.000 The news tells you what to think.

00:29:10.000 The news tells you who's right and wrong, you know, gives their opinion and tries to force that down your throat.

00:29:15.000 And the news censors so that you don't think the wrong thing.

00:29:19.000 Yeah, absolutely.

00:29:20.000 And just when you look at how bold they're getting and how just emboldened people who are on the side of the establishment feel to, you know, spew this kind of violent rhetoric, could you even imagine a mainstream celebrity or YouTube celebrity who just began to comment on political issues from a conservative perspective said that people should bomb some left-wing organization, said that they should do that, like the ACLU or a Planned Parenthood conference or something Like that.

00:29:47.000 I mean, first of all, it would be a story everyone was talking about, but it would also be used as an excuse to censor every single other conservative in the sphere.

00:29:56.000 Because they would say, well, this one guy was a radical lunatic, and so that means we need to censor everyone else who's ever associated with them or is near them, because we're just gonna get more of this unless we really stomp down on it quickly.

00:30:09.000 He can say something as horrific as this, which is literally a direct incitement to terrorism, and it's totally acceptable. 1.00

00:30:17.000 He goes, I'm sorry, I'm sorry guys, and then it just goes away?

00:30:20.000 I don't think he said he was sorry at all, actually.

00:30:22.000 Wow, okay, fantastic.

00:30:23.000 I think he said, I got a little passionate there, I should walk that back.

00:30:27.000 And then later came out and said it was a joke, and I'm like, dude, you weren't joking, and your wife agreed with you when you said it.

00:30:32.000 It was only after your producer, or somebody, you like, he looks over at him and then says, okay, okay, I'll walk that one back.

00:30:37.000 Got a little passionate there.

00:30:39.000 And then he called for other things, like firing guns into the air, which is lethal.

00:30:43.000 What?

00:30:43.000 Like, it's extremely dangerous.

00:30:45.000 Don't blanks also kill you if they fall? 1.00

00:30:47.000 Well, blanks don't reject anything. 0.59

00:30:49.000 Well, if you put a blank up to someone's head, yeah, you can.

00:30:52.000 He was saying, fire into the air.

00:30:54.000 There's nothing that comes out.

00:30:55.000 It's just a blast.

00:30:56.000 But you know a crazy would hear that and take it a step too far.

00:31:00.000 So, I mean, it's incitement, but it's just... If anyone on the right or anyone anti-establishment said that, their channel would be removed immediately.

00:31:10.000 Permanently.

00:31:12.000 And they would get banned across the board from every other platform.

00:31:16.000 Yeah, has he been banned elsewhere?

00:31:17.000 He's been banned on Facebook or Instagram?

00:31:19.000 No, I don't know about that.

00:31:20.000 He's suspended for a week.

00:31:21.000 Can I ask you a question?

00:31:22.000 From just YouTube or anything else?

00:31:23.000 Yeah, just YouTube.

00:31:24.000 So none of the other ones?

00:31:24.000 Just a one-week suspension.

00:31:25.000 No, no, no.

00:31:26.000 Just a one-week suspension.

00:31:27.000 Alex Jones said something of... Yep.

00:31:30.000 I'm gonna say it.

00:31:31.000 You know, he said to people... What?

00:31:35.000 He said, get your battle rifles ready cuz blah blah blah blah.

00:31:38.000 And he was saying that it was figurative.

00:31:38.000 Oh, yeah.

00:31:41.000 They didn't care.

00:31:41.000 They said, you're gone.

00:31:42.000 Yeah.

00:31:43.000 Also, yeah, which is a much more reasonable explanation, right?

00:31:46.000 There is no figurative version of go bomb these people at this time. 0.99

00:31:50.000 Someone should go bomb this group. 0.97

00:31:52.000 That's not figurative. 0.99

00:31:54.000 That is a clear-cut, literal statement.

00:31:56.000 You can't fall back on it.

00:31:57.000 It was just a joke, guys.

00:31:59.000 Alex Jones gets banned from everything, Ethan Klein doesn't.

00:32:02.000 Of course.

00:32:03.000 Here's another thing that they do.

00:32:04.000 These leftists will say, will call for violence, and then they'll say, in Minecraft.

00:32:09.000 And I'm like, oh please.

00:32:11.000 That doesn't work legally, but apparently it does because they're not getting raided by the feds, they're not getting suspended.

00:32:16.000 They will say things like, people need to take up their guns and go attack this group in a video game.

00:32:24.000 And then?

00:32:25.000 And they're like, oh well, we can't ban it.

00:32:26.000 When the news cycle changes to being outraged about, like, a phony insurrection, they're gonna get up on their high horse about how insurrection is horrible, even though they're constantly calling for violence.

00:32:37.000 There was that mom that spoke at one of the school board meetings where the parents have been around the country kind of irate about all the things going on.

00:32:44.000 You mean the domestic terrorists?

00:32:45.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:32:46.000 Yeah.

00:32:46.000 That's right.

00:32:47.000 And she said something like, I'm coming here Monday fully armed if you make the kids wear masks, whatever it was.

00:32:54.000 We're not having it anymore.

00:32:56.000 And they arrested her for that. 0.83

00:32:57.000 And she said she was being figurative.

00:32:59.000 She meant armed to... She said something that she said, we mean to unseat you. 1.00

00:33:03.000 Right.

00:33:03.000 I didn't mean I was going to come and hurt anybody.

00:33:07.000 But yeah, they arrested her.

00:33:08.000 But they didn't arrest Klein.

00:33:10.000 Because he's calling for physical harm also.

00:33:13.000 Actually called for physical harm.

00:33:15.000 On the governor.

00:33:16.000 He didn't mean it real fast.

00:33:18.000 Do you guys remember Boogie?

00:33:21.000 He fired a gun into the air.

00:33:22.000 Do you guys know the story?

00:33:23.000 He's a YouTuber.

00:33:24.000 And he pulled out a .22 and he raised it up and fired.

00:33:28.000 He got charged for that, I'm pretty sure.

00:33:30.000 He got arrested and charged.

00:33:32.000 My point here is...

00:33:35.000 What?

00:33:36.000 He walked it back right away and said he got a little passionate.

00:33:39.000 I don't know if that's an affirmative defense for a direct incitement to terror, to be honest.

00:33:43.000 Like, I don't know if you can call for something like that on a show to millions of people and then walking it back.

00:33:49.000 If people say they still heard it and that still, you know, told them what you thought.

00:33:54.000 Yeah.

00:33:54.000 So I don't, I'm not a lawyer, but I'm wondering if when you get arrested for terroristic threats, if you said, I immediately said no.

00:34:03.000 It probably mitigates it, but I'm not sure.

00:34:05.000 Yeah.

00:34:05.000 I think the response from the DA would be, so you confess.

00:34:08.000 Well yeah, and also, as if some maniac in his fanbase who would commit an act of violence is gonna go, oh, he said he got too passionate, I'm not gonna do it now.

00:34:16.000 Right.

00:34:17.000 I gotta be honest though, I don't really care all that much in the sense that I don't expect him to face any repercussions from this.

00:34:24.000 I'm surprised he got suspended.

00:34:26.000 It took like a day or two before he actually had any adverse reaction from YouTube, which was surprising.

00:34:31.000 He made multiple calls for threats of assault or violence.

00:34:36.000 What people need to understand about assault is that depending on your jurisdiction, assault doesn't mean physically attacking someone.

00:34:42.000 It can be verbal.

00:34:42.000 It's verbal.

00:34:43.000 Or it can be an action.

00:34:44.000 So in Illinois, assault is putting someone within reasonable fear of harm.

00:34:49.000 So when he called on people to fire blanks, he's calling for people to assault the home

00:34:54.000 of the governor, depending on the jurisdictional context.

00:34:57.000 I'm not sure Texas has that in New York.

00:35:00.000 Assault is causing actual physical harm.

00:35:02.000 That means that if someone grabs you but doesn't cause any visible bruise, the cops are going

00:35:07.000 to be like no assault occurred, which is which is weird.

00:35:09.000 So it depends on jurisdiction.

00:35:11.000 But when I say I don't care, nothing's going to happen.

00:35:14.000 I mean, I'm surprised it did.

00:35:16.000 And this is we know.

00:35:19.000 We know they did it years ago with the riots.

00:35:21.000 We know they did it in 2017 with the riots in D.C.

00:35:23.000 We know they get away with it.

00:35:24.000 We know that D.C.

00:35:26.000 actually paid Antifa millions of dollars in a lawsuit, or have to pay, after their charges were dismissed.

00:35:32.000 The Antifa people filed a lawsuit and won against the city.

00:35:35.000 So not only do they continue to do this, they continue to escalate it.

00:35:39.000 Yeah, I accept that as a reality.

00:35:41.000 What more can you expect?

00:35:43.000 Do you think the suspension, sort of going off a little turn here, that you didn't expect on YouTube, does that have anything to do with the Elon effect?

00:35:52.000 Are there token steps being made in some instances now because everybody recognizes that when things aren't fair and they're very one-sided, someone like Elon could come in and do something?

00:36:04.000 No, he couldn't buy YouTube.

00:36:06.000 And the fact that H3 wasn't terminated immediately for this shows the bias.

00:36:11.000 Alex Jones got wiped out across the board on every platform all around the exact same time.

00:36:17.000 And it was for nebulous reasons.

00:36:19.000 But if YouTube hadn't suspended this guy for a week, would anybody have raised Cain other than people they don't care about?

00:36:26.000 It covers them, right?

00:36:27.000 And it allows them to say, oh no, we did take action against him, of course, we suspended him.

00:36:31.000 So the issue here is, what he said was so far beyond what they could ever try to defend.

00:36:37.000 I mean, saying someone should bomb a building or whatever, Was so far beyond anything they could argue was allowed, they had no choice.

00:36:47.000 And all they did was give him a single strike.

00:36:50.000 But it's like, they called it bullying and harassment.

00:36:52.000 That's what they did.

00:36:53.000 They said, the video's been removed for bullying and harassment.

00:36:55.000 I'm like, wow.

00:36:57.000 Calling on your millions of people.

00:36:59.000 Incitement to a terror attack.

00:36:59.000 Yeah.

00:37:01.000 Yeah, actual terror.

00:37:02.000 I know he walked it back after he got called out.

00:37:04.000 Doesn't matter.

00:37:05.000 But seriously, we've not been extended that courtesy.

00:37:08.000 When we had Alex Jones on the show, he made a comment about the death penalty.

00:37:11.000 And I immediately called him out and said, dude, none of that, you can't say that.

00:37:14.000 And YouTube said, we don't care.

00:37:17.000 And I was like, not only was it not me, we said no to it.

00:37:20.000 And they were like, so what?

00:37:21.000 And we got a warning because we don't have, we didn't have, that was our first warning.

00:37:27.000 So for Ethan, I guess, he's already had his warning.

00:37:29.000 So now you get one warning and then you move on a strike.

00:37:31.000 So for us, we didn't get taken down.

00:37:33.000 Yeah.

00:37:33.000 Well, I think what you said, just going back a little bit, what you said about him switching from being entertainment into something he should not be dabbling in.

00:37:44.000 I think that that is also just kind of generally a broader cultural problem we have with, I mean, just our education system.

00:37:50.000 Because, you know, the university system and now the K-12, it's like, in their view, they're doing the rules for radicals.

00:37:58.000 So for them, you know, using this type of aggression or using language that is incitement, for them that is actually normalized.

00:38:07.000 And the culture is such that when a conservative doesn't even get remotely close to that, they can't handle it because everything, the default setting is to be so hard left because of our education system and culture and Hollywood and media.

00:38:23.000 So that, it's just a, it's all, it's like the soup.

00:38:28.000 It's like the crockpot.

00:38:29.000 It's, it's, that's what we, that's what we soak in.

00:38:31.000 Carrie, you reminded me that a few years ago I thought it was a joke.

00:38:35.000 A lot of these things that I hear and I think is a joke and it becomes true. 1.00

00:38:39.000 One of them was there were college campus authorities as well as students who are saying that if you

00:38:46.000 say certain things to people it's akin to violence.

00:38:50.000 And there was actually a case where a teacher at a California college went to court and argued that these anti-abortion

00:38:57.000 signs that kids are holding up on campus were akin to violence against her.

00:39:01.000 She lost the case, but I thought the claim was sort of a joke.

00:39:04.000 So at the same time, some people on that side are claiming mere language or mere signs, you know, protected free speech and language is akin to violence.

00:39:15.000 By the same token, when that is committed by somebody on that side, it is then viewed quite differently.

00:39:21.000 This is why I said I don't care.

00:39:23.000 Because I think, if you haven't realized by now, the asymmetrical cultural warfare that's been going on... I don't know what to tell you.

00:39:31.000 I'm just... I don't think I can keep saying it every time something like this happens.

00:39:34.000 Like, there's a double standard!

00:39:35.000 What's happening?

00:39:36.000 It's like... That was...

00:39:37.000 Three and a half years ago, I was talking about, you know, the double standard we're saying now.

00:39:42.000 I mean, I think it was far more pronounced in the 60s, basically.

00:39:45.000 That's when I think the root of a lot of this started.

00:39:47.000 So I mean, it goes back all the way.

00:39:51.000 You can trace the conflict today all the way back.

00:39:54.000 I mean, literally.

00:39:55.000 But in terms of like the erosion of norms of just how things that happen in the 60s in terms of normalizing the breakdown of the family, normalizing the the hatred of men and, you know, toxic masculinity and weaponizing race like that.

00:40:12.000 That really, I think, had the genesis most powerfully in the 60s.

00:40:16.000 And now here we are.

00:40:17.000 One of the common themes we see with a lot of these mass shootings is fatherlessness.

00:40:21.000 Yeah.

00:40:21.000 Yep.

00:40:22.000 Families broken.

00:40:22.000 Yeah.

00:40:24.000 One thing you don't hear, and some years ago I tried to look into this, didn't get very far, but it used to be as soon as there was a mass shooting, there was a rational discussion or a reasonable question that was asked as to what medicine the kids were on because some of these antidepressants and antipsychotic medicines can exacerbate the feelings of violence in some.

00:40:44.000 So some are apparently helped.

00:40:46.000 Sometimes, as it says on the warning label, people become more suicidal and more violent.

00:40:51.000 All of a sudden, I would say around the 2005 time period, coinciding with the pharmaceutical industry getting greater control, in my view, over the media and practically everything else, that question's no longer asked.

00:41:02.000 And it used to be, again, that's the natural thing you would ask.

00:41:05.000 Not that that's the only thing to blame, but you certainly want to know.

00:41:08.000 It's not even asked by the media now.

00:41:10.000 Like, people don't say, was the kid being treated?

00:41:12.000 And what medicine was he on?

00:41:14.000 Just like, that's not a question anymore.

00:41:17.000 Yeah, or did he have a father in the home?

00:41:19.000 Well, that too, but I would bet money that these things are, you know, I would bet money that, I'd be willing to bet money the kid has been on medication.

00:41:27.000 Yeah, for sure.

00:41:28.000 And I want to say one thing before we move on because I sense that we're about to.

00:41:31.000 For Hilah to sit there while Ethan says this and just go, I view that as a failure of being a wife.

00:41:36.000 You should call your husband on his BS right there, right then, especially if he has a 1.00

00:41:40.000 huge show that he's trying to make a difference to people, which I assume Ethan is trying

00:41:44.000 to do.

00:41:45.000 But I just wanted to point that out because I see that as a cultural failing because it

00:41:47.000 seems like women no longer recognize that they are supposed to be the check to their 1.00

00:41:52.000 man and be like, you know what, maybe you shouldn't act that way.

00:41:54.000 I don't think Ethan is trying to do anything.

00:41:56.000 I don't think he knows anything.

00:41:56.000 How gendered of you.

00:41:57.000 I know. 0.85

00:41:58.000 Terrible.

00:41:58.000 I'm sorry.

00:42:00.000 When Stephen Crowder wanted to have a conversation with Ethan Klein, Ethan brought in Sam Seder instead, ambushing Crowder, who was like, OK, whatever, fine, bye.

00:42:09.000 Ethan Klein says he doesn't know anything about politics.

00:42:11.000 His words.

00:42:12.000 He's correct.

00:42:13.000 But there's something that's fascinating that's happened as politics has become pop culture.

00:42:18.000 I think the establishment class, the Uniparty, the Democrats, Pelosi type, they were so desperate to defeat Donald Trump they did everything in their power to make politics pop culture and now they will regret it.

00:42:33.000 You do not want people who have no idea what they're talking about to be violently angry over these things.

00:42:39.000 It's like all that energy you see when there's a baseball game lost or won, people riot throughout the city or whatever.

00:42:45.000 Turn that into a political issue.

00:42:48.000 Nah, you don't want that.

00:42:50.000 When I was younger, I used to say I wish people cared more about politics.

00:42:53.000 And then I started to understand the average person has no interest in actually understanding it.

00:42:57.000 They just want to fit in.

00:42:59.000 And then I'm like, okay, I want the people who care about this stuff and want to help make the world a better place care about it.

00:43:05.000 I do wish everybody really did care about it in the sense that they would read and understand it.

00:43:10.000 What we got now is people like Ethan Klein, who has no idea what he's talking about, calls for gun control and violence against people who have guns, and it's kind of like you're advocating for guns?

00:43:23.000 You're giving people the reason to need them, but he doesn't care.

00:43:26.000 I don't, I, you know, when I think about this idea of the grifter in the political space, they say, like, so-and-so is a grifter or whatever.

00:43:32.000 It's like, let me, let me tell you, if someone is, is career-wise, like, their whole life was politics, journalism, and news, and they talk about those issues, I probably wouldn't call him a grifter unless they did specific things, like Ethan Klein being a comedy podcast jumping into politics.

00:43:49.000 I'm like, yo, that is definition grifting.

00:43:52.000 He was like, hey, this edgy comedy is no longer good.

00:43:55.000 What do I do?

00:43:56.000 Let's start a podcast.

00:43:57.000 He interviews Jordan Peterson.

00:43:58.000 Well, Jordan Peterson was getting popular.

00:43:59.000 Then, uh-oh, it's not popular with the left.

00:44:01.000 So he takes the episodes down and says, oh, I shouldn't have interviewed Jordan Peterson.

00:44:05.000 He's just doing whatever he has to do to maintain a product for people.

00:44:10.000 There you go.

00:44:12.000 You know, that kind of thinking, that kind of behavior, it's a problem of just the total value of virtue, a breakdown of the family, but also, I don't know his specific case, but you look at the way the media sort of instructs people to behave, and you also look at the way the educational system here, and I have no idea where he was educated, but speaking more broadly about our culture as a whole, I believe it was Thomas Sowell who made the observation that kids in school are taught it's very important to care about making a difference, They're not really taught that it's very important to know all that much about the thing you're trying to make a difference within.

00:44:46.000 And it's very interesting that that's sort of our cultural ethos.

00:44:49.000 I'm gonna make a difference.

00:44:51.000 Okay, well what kind of difference?

00:44:52.000 You know, just because you made something different doesn't mean you made it better.

00:44:56.000 If you didn't know what you were doing, you probably made it worse.

00:44:59.000 But people aren't encouraged to do any of the real work that it takes to become informed about something before commenting on it.

00:45:05.000 Or before, you know, trying to make some kind of differences.

00:45:10.000 How about learn math?

00:45:12.000 Hey, that's what kids in school should be doing.

00:45:12.000 Exactly.

00:45:14.000 But then, outside of that, when people go out into the world and they say they want to be an activist, I think there's a fantastic example of this in Matt Walsh's film, I haven't seen it yet, but even just in the preview, where he asks these women at a women's march, what is a woman?

00:45:28.000 And they can't give him an answer.

00:45:30.000 How can you be at the woman's march and not be able to give an answer to the question, what is a woman? 0.98

00:45:34.000 Can you imagine if you went to a gun rights march or something and asked, what is a gun?

00:45:38.000 And the person couldn't give you a definition? 0.91

00:45:41.000 It's ludicrous. 0.53

00:45:41.000 I want to point something out. 0.53

00:45:43.000 I saw this in the Super Chat.

00:45:45.000 Storm Viking mentioned this.

00:45:46.000 Trump spoke at the NRA event.

00:45:49.000 Ethan Klein called for terror against an event that had the former president at it with Secret Service details.

00:45:55.000 I mean, it's crazy this is the state we're in.

00:45:58.000 It's okay, because it was against Trump.

00:46:01.000 But I'm gonna say those- I'm gonna- So, guys, get ready to drink.

00:46:03.000 I'm gonna say those two magic words.

00:46:04.000 Civil War.

00:46:06.000 Here's what I see.

00:46:10.000 I think most people who've watched the show have probably heard me make this point, but again, some people are like, I've heard this before, Tim.

00:46:15.000 Not everybody's heard it.

00:46:16.000 Boomers are mostly unified in their politics. 1.00

00:46:19.000 There's little division among boomers.

00:46:21.000 They do have their wedge issues.

00:46:23.000 Gen Xers are similar. 0.56

00:46:24.000 But millennials are so divided that you can have someone like Ethan Klein call for an act of terror.

00:46:29.000 Like, how does that even happen?

00:46:31.000 Like, I can't imagine growing up someone accidentally calling for a terror attack against a former, an event with the former president speaking at.

00:46:37.000 I mean, that sounds absurd to me.

00:46:40.000 But we're at the point now where, let's just say, he got too passionate, that's what he said, and it slipped out.

00:46:47.000 What's the next generation going to be like?

00:46:49.000 If Ethan has no reason to try to apologize for this, and he basically didn't.

00:46:55.000 He just said, I got a little passionate, and then he said, Republicans are the party of dead children, further inflaming tribal tensions.

00:47:01.000 Instead of just saying, yeah, I should not have said that.

00:47:03.000 I'm so sorry, guys.

00:47:03.000 We got to tone things down.

00:47:05.000 No, he actually escalated the rhetoric against Republicans.

00:47:09.000 If that's the direction things are going, you take a look at how the parallel economies have emerged.

00:47:14.000 There's something that I warned about several years ago.

00:47:15.000 In 2018, I said, if we keep seeing censorship, I talked about this with Jack Dorsey, you will force people to create a parallel economy if they are to function.

00:47:27.000 Banning people and taking away their livelihood will not stop them from living.

00:47:32.000 It will force them to find alternate means of trade.

00:47:36.000 Eventually, you will see a larger and larger parallel economy separate from yours.

00:47:40.000 Once that happens, people will have no reason whatsoever to accommodate the other.

00:47:47.000 Ethan Klein is a perfect example.

00:47:49.000 He can call for this, and the only reason, in my opinion, he walked it back is because he knew YouTube would strike at his income.

00:47:55.000 But as now, we have seen Twitter and many other platforms be totally lax and not enforce the rules.

00:48:00.000 We're lucky they did in this instance.

00:48:02.000 I don't remember.

00:48:04.000 Was it Twitch?

00:48:04.000 All of them, yeah.

00:48:05.000 Actually, what was it, Facebook allowed people to call for violence against Russians.

00:48:09.000 There was, what platform had the policy where you were allowed to rag on white people?

00:48:13.000 Which one was that one?

00:48:14.000 I don't remember.

00:48:15.000 All of them, yeah.

00:48:16.000 Oh, was it Twitch?

00:48:17.000 I don't know.

00:48:18.000 One of them said you can't insult historically marginalized groups, but you can, you know,

00:48:25.000 against historically oppressive groups or whatever, which is basically like you can

00:48:29.000 rag on white people. 0.89

00:48:30.000 When you get to the point where... That's very monolithic. 0.92

00:48:32.000 There are many white people who are oppressed, like Irish.

00:48:34.000 Well, for sure.

00:48:35.000 Yeah.

00:48:36.000 Yeah.

00:48:36.000 Who cares?

00:48:37.000 Slavic people are considered people of color by the Coalition of Communities of Color.

00:48:41.000 The point is, though, when you get to a point where a platform says, it's okay to target this group of people, but not this one, Because they don't care to lose.

00:48:48.000 We're not gonna make any money from that group anyway, and we don't want to lose money if we ban these people. 0.91

00:48:53.000 You're gonna get people being raised in two different ecosystems, two different economies.

00:48:58.000 One kid's gonna grow up and be like, those people are crazy bad people.

00:49:01.000 That's what my parents said, and it's true. 0.94

00:49:03.000 And then, within a generation or two, people fight.

00:49:07.000 We have that.

00:49:08.000 We've all probably talked to young people, maybe not so young people, where something that's all the rage and discussion on one side of the spectrum, they haven't even heard anything about.

00:49:20.000 You don't even know about that video, or you don't even know about something that is so big on the other, maybe parallel.

00:49:27.000 I feel like, though, that it's more on the other direction.

00:49:29.000 Like, I feel like, like when Trump won, like, like just the conservative ecosystem, like I was at an event with Jack Dorsey.

00:49:37.000 He did not know who William F. Buckley was, you know, a billionaire founder.

00:49:42.000 It's like how like the familiarity with like the intellectual underpinnings of conservatism, they would have no clue.

00:49:49.000 But I think most of us here at the table are just people watching the show.

00:49:53.000 I could very well, you know, explain who the leftist, you know, leaders and publications and so that level of ignorance, I think it's very self-secluding by the left.

00:50:03.000 So I think that's part of why they had such a rude awakening with Trump.

00:50:07.000 Yeah, it shattered their worldviews.

00:50:10.000 They were told by the media it couldn't happen.

00:50:12.000 They said Hillary Clinton had a 99% chance of winning, and then the media was wrong.

00:50:16.000 So what do you do when your world shatters like that?

00:50:19.000 Yeah, you lose your mind.

00:50:20.000 Let's jump to this next story.

00:50:22.000 We'll start talking about families.

00:50:23.000 We have this from the Post Millennial.

00:50:25.000 Paramount Plus sponsors drag event where a child dances on stage for money.

00:50:31.000 Ladies and gentlemen, just pull up the Wikipedia entry for stripper. 1.00

00:50:37.000 And I can't do it here because it does have nude women in the Wikipedia, but what you need to understand is that stripping does not mean being nude.

00:50:45.000 Right.

00:50:45.000 Some strippers can't take their clothes off, but they're still considered strippers.

00:50:49.000 They call them bikini bars. 0.96

00:50:51.000 The Wikipedia entry actually shows, it says bikini and go-go dancing, and it says the women have to be fully clothed, they have to cover their tops and bottoms, They dance on stage and people give them money. 0.76

00:51:02.000 At this event, it was a RuPaul's DragCon.

00:51:07.000 They had two children on stage.

00:51:09.000 And this little boy was jumping and dancing around and taking money from people.

00:51:13.000 This is grooming.

00:51:15.000 This kid, what they do is, they put this kid in an environment and they say it's innocent.

00:51:20.000 There's nothing sexual about it.

00:51:21.000 The kid then gets, they normalize the behavior of dancing on stage for money from the audience.

00:51:27.000 The way grooming would work, I'm not saying they will do to this kid, but the way it would work is that after you do this, When the kid gets a little older, you then say, hey, it's going to be a swimsuit show.

00:51:38.000 Take your shirt off.

00:51:39.000 Then they give you money.

00:51:41.000 Then, oh, we're going to do another swimsuit thing, but this one you have to wear these special swimsuits. 0.98

00:51:46.000 And then they give them Speedos or something.

00:51:48.000 That's how grooming works.

00:51:50.000 It works on adults.

00:51:51.000 There are people who are groomed into being sex workers through this.

00:51:56.000 This is not the most egregious thing we've seen.

00:51:58.000 There was Desmond is Amazing who quite literally removed clothing on stage and then took money from people at a bar full of adults.

00:52:07.000 They're grooming your kids.

00:52:09.000 Paramount is sponsoring this.

00:52:11.000 Discovery Plus is a child drag event.

00:52:13.000 This is a reality.

00:52:17.000 It's almost like there's a lot of pedophiles in media or something like that.

00:52:19.000 That's weird.

00:52:20.000 Well, they normalize it one step at a time.

00:52:23.000 And so, here's the goal.

00:52:24.000 They want you to look at this and say, well, it's just people dancing.

00:52:28.000 You know, is it really that... That's what they'll say to you.

00:52:30.000 They'll say, it's just dancing.

00:52:31.000 They have to.

00:52:31.000 Right, right, right.

00:52:32.000 It's a drag show. 1.00

00:52:33.000 It's a bunch of pervy dudes dressing up and trying to act like they're female dancers.

00:52:38.000 That's not innocent.

00:52:40.000 So what they'll do is they'll say, it's just like a costume show.

00:52:42.000 What are you so mad about?

00:52:43.000 Why are you so obsessed with this?

00:52:45.000 I wonder why you care so much, Seamus.

00:52:47.000 Yeah, no, that's the thing, right?

00:52:48.000 Like, let's expose children to this because we care so much that it has to be forced onto young ones, and then when you point out that there's something wrong with that, you're the one putting inordinate attention on it.

00:52:58.000 So, the family's been destroyed.

00:53:01.000 There's, uh, you know, when I was covering this in my TimCast channel segment, there was a photo of Drag Queen Story Hour where there's these liberal parents smiling and laughing as they put their kids in front of this.

00:53:15.000 They're into it.

00:53:16.000 They like it.

00:53:17.000 I think it says something about where the parents are coming from, of course.

00:53:21.000 And I hope this was a parody account, but it reminds me of on Twitter a couple of years ago, there was a woman, didn't say it was a parody account, who was complaining at being attacked because she had in her bio that she was transgendering her twin toddlers.

00:53:37.000 I didn't even know what that meant.

00:53:39.000 I had to think about it.

00:53:41.000 I think it's a big reason why in Virginia, where I live, that's why we had Glenn Youngkin win.

00:53:49.000 I was a volunteer on his campaign and a lot of it had to do with the schools and what was being taught in schools and a lot of this gender ideology which Should not be taught in schools. 0.61

00:53:59.000 It should be something if you as a parent, you have the right to teach your children your values.

00:54:05.000 And Terry McAuliffe, the Democrat opponent, said no, that they shouldn't be telling teachers what to think.

00:54:11.000 So I think I mean, having worked on the campaign, I was there on election night.

00:54:15.000 It gave me a lot of hope that there are a lot of parents who are pushing back on this.

00:54:20.000 So.

00:54:20.000 Homeschool your kids.

00:54:22.000 There's no question about it at this point.

00:54:24.000 Homeschool your kids. 0.99

00:54:25.000 Yeah, or private Christian schools.

00:54:27.000 Even then, you really have to vet it.

00:54:28.000 That's true, too.

00:54:29.000 You really have to vet it.

00:54:30.000 The Christian schools have some of the same accreditation facilities that require them to do the things you'd be surprised that the public schools have to do.

00:54:38.000 But there is a trend, as you guys know, and I did a story on this in full measure recently, Not just homeschooling, but there's pods now, there's groups, there's organizations in the neighborhood where they're getting actual more formal group education just outside the public school system.

00:54:53.000 That parallel economy is forming.

00:54:55.000 People are just deciding they don't agree with it, and if you keep going too radical in the school system, a parallel system is going to develop.

00:55:03.000 I think we're there with the schools.

00:55:05.000 It's interesting because with the entire public school structure, which, you know, has been imitated by a lot of these private schools as well, the way the system has been set up, we take it for granted.

00:55:15.000 But it really is very bizarre that the status quo is such that parents send their children To go off with complete strangers for basically the entire day for basically their entire childhood.

00:55:29.000 That is very strange.

00:55:30.000 And to learn not just stuff we consider traditional education but all of their social values and their moral values and all the extra stuff that as a parent you kind of want to do yourself usually.

00:55:41.000 Yeah, well I think unfortunately a lot of parents don't.

00:55:43.000 I think unfortunately a lot of parents don't want to do it themselves.

00:55:46.000 It's very sad, but I think it happens a lot.

00:55:47.000 They don't want to have uncomfortable conversations.

00:55:49.000 There are people who will even say, sex ed needs to be taught in schools.

00:55:52.000 Why?

00:55:52.000 Well, because I don't want to have that conversation with my kid.

00:55:54.000 What's wrong with you?

00:55:55.000 You want a stranger to?

00:55:56.000 They were raised in that system is what's wrong with them.

00:55:58.000 Yeah, that's also true.

00:55:59.000 That's a fair point.

00:55:59.000 That's fair.

00:56:00.000 Yeah, well who was it who was talking about how kids who grew up on a farm knew about the birds and the bees?

00:56:05.000 Yeah, I've mentioned that before.

00:56:07.000 Well, when I was in high school, another student literally asked me the question, how did people learn about sex before sex ed?

00:56:14.000 I'm not kidding.

00:56:16.000 I was like, well, because people were A, more closely connected to nature, B, people figure out how to do that on their own.

00:56:24.000 The reason you have sex education, the reason adults need to talk to young people about that kind of thing is to tell them what not to do.

00:56:31.000 You're getting older, and X, Y, and Z, and you should know that, yes, you should be married to someone before you do X, Y, and Z. This makes children. 0.55

00:56:31.000 That's the whole point. 0.55

00:56:41.000 Well, Seamus, I think you've got to be fair to these people.

00:56:45.000 You see, before the advent of sex ed, humans had no idea how to reproduce.

00:56:49.000 That's true.

00:56:50.000 Didn't know what was causing this thing.

00:56:52.000 We were very lucky.

00:56:53.000 We were very much like panda bears.

00:56:55.000 Yeah, we were.

00:56:56.000 Not smart.

00:56:56.000 Until aliens came.

00:56:58.000 and taught us about reproduction.

00:57:00.000 And then we wrote it down in books and now we have to teach kids.

00:57:04.000 Otherwise, who knows what'll happen.

00:57:06.000 Well, the other thing was that we didn't know that men could get pregnant.

00:57:10.000 Right, that's true.

00:57:11.000 And that's something that we're only just now learning.

00:57:14.000 But I do have to do a plug for the bill that we talked about a little bit earlier.

00:57:19.000 And if you all watching can go to womensbillofrights.com.

00:57:23.000 We are pushing back on this at the federal level and also at the state level, so we just introduced a week and a half ago a bill, the Women's Bill of Rights, and it says it's a resolution to codify that a woman is a woman and we define what a woman is through biological sex, that she has a uterus, that she has female reproductive organs, It's really pathetic that we have to spell this out, but we're doing it.

00:57:46.000 And so we've had several members of Congress, including a Democrat, Katie Porter from Pennsylvania.

00:57:50.000 So kudos to her.

00:57:52.000 We're working also with the Women's Liberation Front, which is a hard left feminist group.

00:57:57.000 And as a conservative group, we want to work with women who want to protect women's rights.

00:58:01.000 And then we're also going to be moving it for the next phase to the state level as well.

00:58:05.000 So you can contact your local legislature and say, we want this and I want it in my state too.

00:58:09.000 We're doing it at the federal level and the state level.

00:58:11.000 So how do you define a woman? 0.98

00:58:13.000 Well, on the website, we have it here.

00:58:15.000 I can read it.

00:58:17.000 For purposes of state federal law, a person's sex is defined as his or her biological sex, either male or female, at birth.

00:58:23.000 For purposes of state federal law... Stop!

00:58:29.000 A female is an individual whose biological reproductive system is developed to produce ova. 1.00

00:58:33.000 A male is an individual whose biological reproductive system is developed to fertilize the ova of a female.

00:58:38.000 For purpose of a state federal law, woman and girl refer to human females and the term man and boy refer to human males.

00:58:45.000 So simple.

00:58:46.000 Well, there you go.

00:58:46.000 I actually think it's a little complicated, you know?

00:58:49.000 Because when you were mentioning, you know, uterus and ovum and all that stuff, I'm like... You could build one of those.

00:58:54.000 You could take an animal's uterus and put it in a... The argument that they make is, what about a woman who's had a hysterectomy?

00:59:00.000 Now she's not a woman anymore, and it's like... Very bad argument. 1.00

00:59:03.000 Yeah.

00:59:04.000 But it works on weak-minded people.

00:59:05.000 Yeah.

00:59:06.000 That's why it's like adult human female and adult human male. 0.73

00:59:09.000 And they're like, well, what's a male or what's a female?

00:59:10.000 Oh, you want to read the biology of it all.

00:59:12.000 Okay, now we... XXXY.

00:59:15.000 But even that goes so much deeper, right?

00:59:15.000 Yeah.

00:59:17.000 Because it's not as if we discovered the XX and XY chromosomes and went, oh my gosh, there's two categories of people that we now know about.

00:59:25.000 It's obvious from the get-go.

00:59:26.000 It's insane that we have to explain it to people now.

00:59:27.000 I don't know if you made this point last week.

00:59:29.000 It was a really good point.

00:59:30.000 Humans didn't discover the X and Y chromosome until recently, but humans always knew there were two kinds of people.

00:59:39.000 It wasn't created as a social construct for the purpose of, you know, oppressing people.

00:59:44.000 This is something I assume since the beginning of time, although I wasn't there, that has been recognized and accepted, you know, without being controversial until really relatively recently.

00:59:55.000 I wouldn't be surprised if we already are starting to see the argument where they say that the X and Y chromosomes aren't real and that they were created to reinforce the patriarchal gender binary.

01:00:07.000 They will literally say anything.

01:00:09.000 That's right, because science is sexist. 0.90

01:00:10.000 Yeah, that's right. 0.91

01:00:11.000 I say it was a bunch of white men. 0.65

01:00:13.000 Who needed a legal way to, you know, uh, what was it called?

01:00:13.000 That's right.

01:00:16.000 Phrenology?

01:00:17.000 Yeah, with the head measuring.

01:00:18.000 Yeah, they would measure the heads.

01:00:20.000 Yeah.

01:00:21.000 And like, they wanted to justify racist ideas.

01:00:23.000 So, uh, chromosomes, not a real thing as it turns out.

01:00:27.000 Well, and this is because they do not use language the way human beings are supposed to use language.

01:00:31.000 They're not trying to communicate any kind of truth, right?

01:00:34.000 So when they talk about what a woman is, what insurrection is, what terrorism is, what violence is, they get it wrong constantly, right?

01:00:40.000 They call men women.

01:00:41.000 They call statements of fact about what a person's biology is violence.

01:00:46.000 They don't call it terrorism to tell someone that they should bomb a public event that the former president of the United States is going to be at.

01:00:55.000 Oh no, it was a joke.

01:00:56.000 Well, he did get really passionate and he walked it back.

01:00:59.000 So I guess we're fine with it.

01:01:00.000 But they literally use it to try to signal what they want.

01:01:03.000 It's very sad and it's unbecoming.

01:01:04.000 It's degrading.

01:01:05.000 It's not how humans are supposed to use language.

01:01:06.000 That's actually kind of the way that like dogs use language.

01:01:09.000 When you tell your dog, sit, give me paw, he doesn't understand those words.

01:01:13.000 He knows he'll get a treat.

01:01:14.000 And that's what we have actual grown adult human beings walking around doing.

01:01:18.000 Using words and only understanding them in the context that gives Exactly.

01:01:22.000 My dog does.

01:01:22.000 You have a Collie, right?

01:01:23.000 instead of the truth that's actually supposed to lie beneath the phrasing.

01:01:26.000 So let's let's let's dissect that a little bit. What you're saying is

01:01:30.000 the dog basically hears, Rumpel, and then when he knows to respond to that sound

01:01:35.000 he'll get a treat, but he doesn't understand the concepts or ideas behind

01:01:39.000 what it means.

01:01:39.000 Exactly. My dog does. Yeah sure. Well yours is special.

01:01:43.000 Your dog is very special.

01:01:44.000 You have a Collie, right? The Collie's the smartest breed, I think? There you go, yep.

01:01:48.000 I don't know if I agree with the dog analogy thing.

01:01:50.000 I think it's fair to say, you don't, you don't need to use it.

01:01:53.000 You can just say there are people who don't understand what they're saying.

01:01:56.000 Yeah.

01:01:57.000 They just know that they can say certain words and they'll be rewarded.

01:01:59.000 Well, that's my point.

01:02:00.000 Case in point, we had a progressive on the show who said, conservatives are saying trans people don't exist.

01:02:05.000 What?

01:02:05.000 And I said, what does that mean?

01:02:07.000 And he was like, huh?

01:02:08.000 I'm like, what does that mean?

01:02:10.000 Like Ben Shapiro knows Blair White.

01:02:12.000 He knows she exists.

01:02:13.000 What does that mean?

01:02:15.000 They don't think trans people exist.

01:02:16.000 I'm like, OK, you're not telling me anything.

01:02:18.000 And that's your point.

01:02:19.000 It's a specific phrase to get their point across, to get what they want from you, to shame you, instead of communicating an actual idea.

01:02:19.000 Exactly.

01:02:24.000 That's like transphobic, as we've talked about.

01:02:27.000 May as well be a grunt.

01:02:29.000 Exactly.

01:02:29.000 People called transphobic, often what the person calling them that means is you don't like the idea of trans people, but they're not afraid of trans people.

01:02:39.000 They are not transphobic.

01:02:40.000 I'm not sure how that word has become just accepted into the lexicon.

01:02:43.000 Well, same thing as homophobic and all that. 0.98

01:02:45.000 You're scared of gay people. 1.00

01:02:46.000 Not really. 0.98

01:02:48.000 You made this point that it could just be a grunt.

01:02:49.000 It's true that any word could be a grunt.

01:02:51.000 We make noises, and those noises are understood to have certain meanings.

01:02:56.000 But what a human is supposed to be able to do is abstract with those noises, understand what they mean, use them honestly.

01:03:02.000 My point with the dog analogy is whenever humans fail to live up to their rational potential, they behave animalistically.

01:03:08.000 You know, I think words Are oppressive.

01:03:13.000 English is a colonial language, and if we want to truly speak in a way that is representative of all human cultures... Clicks and whistles.

01:03:22.000 Yeah.

01:03:22.000 Grunts!

01:03:23.000 Well, that's honest, and to be fair, when women aren't around, that is how men talk. 0.58

01:03:27.000 Yeah, that's true.

01:03:28.000 We don't... I'm sorry for letting it get out of the bag there.

01:03:31.000 Yeah, if you watch the Seamus Freedom Tunes members only, you know, I'll read the line as Dr. Fauci, like, you have to wear your mask!

01:03:39.000 And then I'll look up at Seamus and go, whoa!

01:03:45.000 I have the antidote to your word question and it's called the Woke-tionary.

01:03:48.000 So we made this product with the Independent Women's Network. 0.85

01:03:51.000 So you go to iwnetwork.com.

01:03:53.000 I'll give you this after the show.

01:03:55.000 You're welcome to have it.

01:03:56.000 It defines all these terms like white adjacent, systemic racism, triggered, restorative justice, implicit bias.

01:04:04.000 It's all here.

01:04:05.000 We spell it out.

01:04:06.000 The real English.

01:04:07.000 We give the real definition.

01:04:08.000 Well, to your point, I've asked people in my orbit, because I had to look this up.

01:04:14.000 Everybody starting years ago started saying equity, equity, equity instead of equality.

01:04:19.000 I'm like, but no one explained that.

01:04:20.000 When journalists adopt these phrases of advocacy, I think they better know what they're, I think they probably shouldn't usually, because more thought should go into it.

01:04:28.000 You can quote somebody, but you shouldn't be adopting it.

01:04:30.000 And I looked up equity, and it's, as you guys probably know, but I think a lot of ordinary folks, we don't.

01:04:37.000 Totally different than equality.

01:04:38.000 And if you ask young people using that phrase, and it's just ubiquitous today, most people can't define equity versus equality.

01:04:46.000 Exactly.

01:04:47.000 Because they don't need to.

01:04:48.000 You say the word, you get the treat.

01:04:49.000 Well, it's equal outcomes versus equal opportunity.

01:04:52.000 Equity is socialism.

01:04:54.000 Equality is equality of opportunity.

01:04:56.000 Meritocracy.

01:04:57.000 Exactly.

01:04:57.000 They do not like meritocracy at all.

01:04:59.000 No, that's racist.

01:05:00.000 Equity to me is the notion of you predefine people based on your understanding without knowing somebody of what their skill set is or what their abilities are and you tell them based on something like skin color that they can't do something as well as everybody else and they need help.

01:05:17.000 I mean, that's how I describe equity, where there are other people who don't.

01:05:22.000 To me, it's almost the opposite of what the goal is, because you're labeling a certain group of people based on nothing but... Well, if you look at the arguments they make, it's one group has privileges, and so they should be held back.

01:05:36.000 Other groups have disadvantages, so they should be pushed forward.

01:05:39.000 So equity is hobble those who are successful.

01:05:42.000 It's cut off the tall grass.

01:05:43.000 It's typical communist ideology.

01:05:46.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:05:47.000 But as a kid in America who in my generation we were all told whatever color we wore this was our thing as you can be anything and that's what we thought.

01:05:55.000 I hear women today talking about You know, I want my daughter to know that, you know, women could even be doctors. 0.98

01:06:02.000 I'm like, we knew that in the 1960s.

01:06:03.000 Duh.

01:06:04.000 Who told you in 1990 or 2000 that that wasn't possible?

01:06:08.000 Because we've been through all this.

01:06:09.000 That's the weirdest thing.

01:06:10.000 I really don't think they think of it.

01:06:11.000 They're living in an insane fantasy land.

01:06:13.000 They have a persecution complex.

01:06:14.000 Everything's the Handmaid's Tale, right? 0.80

01:06:16.000 There was some comment that someone posted where this little black girl is in school and she's asked what she wants to be when she grows up or something.

01:06:22.000 She says, I want to be an astronaut.

01:06:24.000 The teacher goes, that's great.

01:06:25.000 And she goes, what?

01:06:26.000 And the teachers are like, that's fantastic.

01:06:28.000 And the girl says, no, you're supposed to tell me I can't do it because I'm a woman.

01:06:31.000 And she was like, but you can do it.

01:06:34.000 It doesn't matter.

01:06:35.000 And then she was like, you know, this famous astronaut that I'm a big fan of was told she couldn't do it.

01:06:40.000 So she, you know, fought against it and rose to be the best.

01:06:43.000 And she was like, yes.

01:06:44.000 And because of her, you now can do it.

01:06:47.000 No one's holding you back.

01:06:49.000 And then it just shows like the panel, the girl like shocked and confused.

01:06:52.000 But it's fascinating because I've experienced this.

01:06:54.000 That in the modern era, these activists actually tell people you can't succeed.

01:07:01.000 That's what I'm saying.

01:07:02.000 Because of your race.

01:07:03.000 Right.

01:07:04.000 So don't try.

01:07:05.000 It's their fault.

01:07:06.000 Have a nice day.

01:07:07.000 But to kids who it wouldn't have occurred to them because that wasn't the case and they're suddenly identified at a fairly early age now and told that you are different and you can't do things, you know, that Yeah, that's what our Winsome Sears, our lieutenant governor in Virginia, who was Yunkin's running mate, she said, that's what CRT does.

01:07:24.000 It makes the light in the child's eyes, you know, if you tell, you know, and she's black herself, and she said, if you tell black children you can't succeed, you're inherently flawed, why would we even think they would try?

01:07:38.000 Of course they're gonna fall, you know, into gangs and drugs because we keep telling them that they're victims and that they're hopeless.

01:07:45.000 Well, you said it before, but is it surprising to anybody that the group of people advocating for less population are favoring policies that result in destroyed families, destroyed economies, sterilization of children, and outright abortion of children?

01:07:59.000 The Planned Parenthood thing, I thought, was a conspiracy theory for years, you know, and now they're having to grapple with it.

01:08:06.000 Which one?

01:08:06.000 Which part of it?

01:08:11.000 By the way, I'm a very late comer to politics, so I'm one of the people you guys are talking about sometimes.

01:08:16.000 But you were a journalist.

01:08:17.000 Margaret Sanger, you know, was part of wanting to apparently shape and annihilate the black population, and now Planned Parenthood is having to grapple with that, and on their website they address this.

01:08:29.000 You know, the fact that that was the case, and how they feel about that now, and you know, it's a very tough thing for them.

01:08:35.000 Oh, I read, it was a fact check, I think it was, ah, which one, one of those fact checkers, maybe it was the Washington Post fact checker.

01:08:42.000 Yes, we were just talking, I was just going to bring that up.

01:08:44.000 It was insane about the KKK rally, because someone said, oh, Margaret Singer spoke at KKK rallies.

01:08:50.000 And so they did a fact check about whether that was true.

01:08:52.000 And they said, no, actually, she only spoke at one event, one KKK event, and it was a women's KKK event.

01:08:59.000 Oh, that's good.

01:08:59.000 It was like the women who are attached to the men in the KKK, so it was like a women's KKK event.

01:09:04.000 Okay.

01:09:04.000 And she had a pure intention for going there.

01:09:07.000 She was just trying to spread her message of birth control to whoever would listen. 1.00

01:09:11.000 So they literally said it was okay that she went to a KKK event because she was trying

01:09:16.000 to teach about birth control to everybody, no matter who would listen.

01:09:19.000 So she, and I was just like, do you hear what you're saying?

01:09:23.000 This is insane.

01:09:24.000 I gotta address, you know, Michael Malice, who's a big friend of the show and a good friend of mine.

01:09:30.000 He's argued this is not true about Margaret Sanger.

01:09:32.000 And, you know, I recently was talking to him and he was like, no, no, no, this is not true.

01:09:35.000 She was advocating for birth control.

01:09:36.000 She was trying to end poverty by telling these women.

01:09:39.000 And I'm just like, I hear your argument, dude, but I pulled up plannedparenthood.org that outright calls her racist. 0.96

01:09:47.000 She's a eugenicist. 1.00

01:09:48.000 She was a eugenicist. 0.57

01:09:50.000 Planned Parenthood calls her racist.

01:09:54.000 I suppose, you know, I think Michael's a very smart guy and I respect him a whole lot, but I don't understand how his point can be correct that she wasn't.

01:10:02.000 Maybe I got something wrong in what he was saying.

01:10:05.000 But they actually say she believed in an inherently racist and ableist ideology that labels certain people as unfit to have children.

01:10:11.000 She believed in eugenics.

01:10:12.000 We denounce her beliefs in eugenics. 0.83

01:10:15.000 She was going to the black community specifically, telling them to stop having kids. 0.93

01:10:21.000 Sounds like she was racist, you know? 1.00

01:10:23.000 I don't know, whatever.

01:10:25.000 Everybody was racist back then to varying degrees, right?

01:10:28.000 They were racist against Irish people, right?

01:10:30.000 And what's so bizarre is that there's such a total disconnect between that fact and then the outcome of the disparity of the proportion of black children who are then killed.

01:10:40.000 You know, I think the ratio is like four or five, uh, you know, five to one black to white babies, but, but yeah, black people are a much smaller percentage of the population.

01:10:49.000 So her vision has been realized.

01:10:51.000 Like she got what she was dreaming for.

01:10:53.000 And that's what's disgusting.

01:10:54.000 It's like playing hard.

01:10:55.000 It doesn't acknowledge this.

01:10:56.000 I was watching a video from, it was actually some critical race theorist guy who pointed this out.

01:11:02.000 It was like a black identitarian guy saying, Margaret Sanger was racist, Planned Parenthood says she's racist, and they were explaining how if the black population wasn't getting aborted at the rate they were, they would be a substantially larger portion of the U.S.

01:11:18.000 population by now.

01:11:20.000 But you imagine, it's like five to one.

01:11:22.000 Oh yeah, they were the second largest minority group ahead of Latinos, but because of abortion, black people are more likely to abort than Latinos.

01:11:30.000 Now Latinos have surpassed black Americans as the second biggest group.

01:11:36.000 What was that?

01:11:37.000 Was that the conspiracy theory you're talking about?

01:11:38.000 Or are you talking about selling baby parts or something?

01:11:40.000 Well, that too.

01:11:42.000 I found out about Margaret Sanger because an African-American girlfriend of my brother's some years ago referred to it.

01:11:50.000 And it surprised me because I'd always just heard it in passing and didn't put any thought into that being possibly true.

01:11:56.000 But she said, oh, black people know this.

01:11:58.000 And so I looked it up.

01:12:01.000 Yeah.

01:12:02.000 Yeah, we had Daryl Davis on and he's gone relatively woke.

01:12:05.000 He used to talk to members of the KKK and talk them out of that ideology.

01:12:08.000 And he said that his mother knew even then, like a long time ago, she knew that they were like trying to use black people to, for example, we all know about, you know, the Tuskegee experiments and stuff like that.

01:12:19.000 He said that they understood that Planned Parenthood was kind of a little bit of an extension of that.

01:12:23.000 I'm paraphrasing him.

01:12:24.000 I don't mean to misquote him, but my understanding was that they knew that that's what Planned Parenthood was going for, which was like really eye-opening for me.

01:12:31.000 I was like, they knew.

01:12:32.000 It was very much common knowledge, and it was just one of those things.

01:12:35.000 They just accepted it.

01:12:36.000 No, but not only do they accept it, they promote it. 0.97

01:12:38.000 Like they say, you know, these white supremacists who are pro-life, they want to hold back black women. 0.93

01:12:45.000 You know, so it's a moral good for black women to want to abort their children. 1.00

01:12:51.000 And good on Senator Tim Scott because he called out Janet Yellen.

01:12:54.000 You know, Janet Yellen said, you know, if we had, you know, fewer abortions in the past, then that we would have had a much smaller GDP growth.

01:13:03.000 So I just want to issue a clarification.

01:13:05.000 you know, as the as the, you know, black son of a single mother.

01:13:10.000 I am so glad that she did not share your view, basically.

01:13:13.000 So I just want to issue a clarification.

01:13:15.000 According to Planned Parenthood, they're not selling tissue.

01:13:18.000 They're donating it. Oh, that's nice.

01:13:20.000 I also ask people to look up, because you can find not the story, but the press announcement.

01:13:23.000 for money. But didn't Project Veritas do videos about this?

01:13:27.000 I can't remember if it was Veritas.

01:13:29.000 I also ask people to look up, because you can find not the story but the press announcement.

01:13:34.000 ABC a couple of years ago with one of my former producers, Kim Skeen, and Chris Wallace, who

01:13:40.000 worked at ABC at the time, because Kim turned me on to this, back when you could cover normal

01:13:46.000 stories that people cared about in a normal way as a journalist without getting cancelled,

01:13:51.000 they did a story on the sale of body parts, fetal body parts, and the market among the

01:13:57.000 pharmaceutical industry and others for clinical study and all kinds of things.

01:14:02.000 And again, that story is nowhere to be found on the Internet, but if you Google or DuckDuckGo, your choice, whatever, I mean, ABC's 2022 air report on fetal tissue trafficking, March 1st, 2000.

01:14:16.000 Read about how much they were paying for, I think, a brain.

01:14:20.000 There was literally a quote from one of the directors of Planned Parenthood saying she wanted to buy a new car.

01:14:25.000 Unbelievable.

01:14:26.000 So I don't care if they say they're going, I do not believe it.

01:14:29.000 Today it's Project Veritas.

01:14:30.000 What I'm telling you is not long ago, ABC News and Chris Wallace were doing this kind of reporting when reporters were, you know, more open to doing neutral stories on important controversies.

01:14:42.000 So the organization, I don't believe it was a man I'm blanking on named Veritas.

01:14:48.000 It was the Center for Medical Progress.

01:14:49.000 And what they did is after they filmed these employees of Planned Parenthood and representatives haggling over the price of fetal tissue, they edited it, yes, but they placed the full unedited footage on the internet for anyone to watch if they wanted to.

01:15:03.000 And they got in trouble, right?

01:15:05.000 Everything on the news is edited at some point if it's not just a full, raw, hour-long tape.

01:15:10.000 Well, and the reason, if I understand properly, that David Daleiden actually got in trouble was just because of two-party consent laws with respect to filming people.

01:15:17.000 It wasn't because he edited anything deceptively or dishonestly.

01:15:20.000 Right.

01:15:21.000 I'm just saying, that was an argument that used to not be an argument, and I saw that raised when I was doing, at CBS, not about me, but when people wanted to make controversies, all of a sudden Opposing people politically would say, that tape was edited.

01:15:35.000 I'm like, yeah, all of our tapes are edited.

01:15:37.000 Everything!

01:15:38.000 And people who are deceptively editing a tape do not place the entirety of the footage online for everyone to be able to watch it.

01:15:46.000 So this was a big story in 2015.

01:15:48.000 Undercover video shows, Planned Parenthood official discussing fetal organs used for research.

01:15:53.000 They responded to it saying, it's tissue donation.

01:15:56.000 But in the video, so in the footage, the woman literally says, Whoever throws out a figure in a negotiation first loses.

01:16:07.000 You know, the thing you say when you're donating something to somebody.

01:16:11.000 Insanity.

01:16:12.000 But what does donation mean, right?

01:16:13.000 They don't know what words mean or they don't use them properly.

01:16:16.000 They are intentionally deceptive.

01:16:17.000 What does donation mean?

01:16:18.000 You say you're paying for time and transportation of the stuff and to have it preserved so that there's all kinds of ways to say you're not paying for the tissue, but in fact... Seamus, I'm gonna donate this Woktionary to you.

01:16:31.000 Thank you so much.

01:16:32.000 Hey, can you spot me 20 bucks?

01:16:33.000 Yeah, of course, man.

01:16:34.000 You gotta make a profit off your donations.

01:16:34.000 Right on.

01:16:35.000 That's right, yeah.

01:16:37.000 He didn't sign.

01:16:37.000 Oh, no, no.

01:16:38.000 You gotta pay for the lights and the... You were sitting here.

01:16:40.000 I sold him nothing.

01:16:41.000 He didn't sell me anything.

01:16:41.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:16:42.000 I just happened to be picking money.

01:16:43.000 The effort you had to use to hand him the pamphlet.

01:16:45.000 By the way... Carpetunnel risk.

01:16:47.000 I really wish the Planned Parenthood Defense would catch on with the IRS.

01:16:51.000 Like, no, that was not... That wasn't work.

01:16:53.000 I didn't sell that.

01:16:54.000 That was not... I donated that.

01:16:56.000 But, I mean, I happened to make money, but it was different.

01:16:57.000 Something tells me that the IRS isn't gonna be concerned about that.

01:17:03.000 No.

01:17:03.000 Federal agencies are not going to go after the left in this way.

01:17:06.000 Ever.

01:17:07.000 Ever.

01:17:07.000 Look at what happened with Donald Trump and Russiagate.

01:17:09.000 One of the biggest con- I mean, now we're looking at the Sussman trial with what's going on.

01:17:14.000 Hillary Clinton knowing about and signing off on a lot of this stuff.

01:17:17.000 Some of the most shocking revelations we've heard in a long time.

01:17:19.000 Russiagate was staged.

01:17:20.000 It was fake.

01:17:21.000 It was a hoax.

01:17:22.000 Tricking the government.

01:17:23.000 Many elements of the government.

01:17:24.000 The FBI knew it was fake.

01:17:25.000 They went after it anyway.

01:17:26.000 Wow.

01:17:27.000 He was going to say, how many of them were really tricked?

01:17:28.000 So we got a couple guys.

01:17:30.000 Which was part of his defense, actually.

01:17:32.000 The sussman, that was his defense. 0.97

01:17:33.000 Was like, well, they already knew.

01:17:34.000 So I wasn't actually, it was immaterial if I was lying.

01:17:37.000 Well, in the FBI's defenses, we didn't know that they're such bad at their jobs

01:17:41.000 and they're supposed to be top federal agents that they don't even do due diligence

01:17:45.000 when a political operative brings them research on one of the most sensitive things they could do,

01:17:50.000 which is someone, an opposing political campaign.

01:17:53.000 My sources at FBI tell me they used to not go within a mile of an investigation like that.

01:17:58.000 It was so controversial.

01:17:59.000 Just to avoid any appearance of conflict.

01:18:02.000 They stayed away from journalists and political figures, at least the honest guys.

01:18:06.000 And now we're to believe that they didn't even do due diligence when they're handed opposition research.

01:18:11.000 Well, it was because he knew him personally.

01:18:13.000 Because sussman had worked formally at the FBI.

01:18:15.000 And fun fact, the guy who he met with, James Baker, was my former professor at Harvard Law School.

01:18:23.000 Actually a good person.

01:18:24.000 And he's the one who I think is at the center of the damning text messages that he's reported.

01:18:29.000 So good on him.

01:18:32.000 Wow.

01:18:32.000 Do we know if he lied or if he just got passionate in the moment and then walked it back?

01:18:36.000 It was a passionate text message.

01:18:38.000 They're walking it back now, so it's okay.

01:18:40.000 The whole thing!

01:18:40.000 It was a joke!

01:18:42.000 No harm, no foul.

01:18:43.000 Can't wait for them to apologize.

01:18:44.000 Saying double standard.

01:18:46.000 At this point, it's like nails on a chalkboard, because like, yes, yes, we know, we know.

01:18:51.000 It's not, it's, you know, some 16-year-old is going to start watching the news and then go to his dad and be like, Dad, there's a double standard!

01:18:57.000 He's going to go, oh, son.

01:19:00.000 I remember when I thought that wasn't going to be the case.

01:19:01.000 Yeah, I think it's Dave Smith and Robbie Bernstein always make this joke, like, oh, no, we're waiting for an apology on that.

01:19:07.000 It's going to come any day.

01:19:08.000 They're going to apologize about it any day.

01:19:10.000 I'm sure.

01:19:11.000 Listen, Carter Page, last time I checked, the former Trump Campaign associate who was improperly spied upon with doctored evidence from the FBI, who, by the way, had never met or talked to or communicated with Donald Trump directly, but through a wiretap improperly done on Carter Page, Donald Trump's communications could be captured the way they allow themselves to capture all the communications of those in orbit around the one wiretap person.

01:19:11.000 I'm sure.

01:19:35.000 To this day, as far as I know, he has not received so much as an apology.

01:19:39.000 In fact, his efforts at his own expense to try to get some Let's say equity in court over all that happened to him have just gone unanswered.

01:19:48.000 His case has been thrown out.

01:19:50.000 The FBI has not said so much as, you know, now that we've convicted the one lawyer, if nothing else, of doctoring a document in your case, we're sorry.

01:19:59.000 Nothing.

01:19:59.000 You know, just standing by.

01:20:00.000 Oh, and he only got probation.

01:20:01.000 He got like, I think like 400 hours of community service, although he should have spent a year in jail.

01:20:06.000 Trump needs to win in 2024.

01:20:09.000 We had Kash Patel on the show and my attitude is just fire everybody.

01:20:14.000 Soon as Trump wins again, just get in there and just fire everyone.

01:20:18.000 Shebek, you're fired. 0.96

01:20:20.000 The line he's famous for, he's just...

01:20:22.000 Well, and the press strategy should be different, too.

01:20:24.000 So I was there working for John Solomon, who's hopefully going to come on with you guys soon, with just the news.

01:20:30.000 And that was the year in 2020 when we were launching, so it was the last year of the Trump presidency.

01:20:35.000 And it was so hard to get in the room credentialing, so I was covering the White House for him.

01:20:39.000 And because of the pandemic, the White House Correspondents Association was very dictatorial about, first of all, they're that way normally about who's allowed in the room.

01:20:47.000 But because of COVID, they severely constrained who was in the room.

01:20:51.000 So as a startup working for a guy who was, you know, reporting the truth, John Solomon, during pandemic, it was really hard to get in the room.

01:20:58.000 And I only got in the room because of Kayleigh McEnany allowed me in the room, myself and One American News.

01:21:05.000 And from One American News, Chanel Rion, their founder, She opened my eyes to what's happening in that press briefing room.

01:21:13.000 And our understanding is that if Trump comes back, he's going to change the strategy of what happens in that press briefing room.

01:21:19.000 Because right now, the WHA is a private nonprofit.

01:21:23.000 That's the White House Correspondents Association.

01:21:25.000 Yes.

01:21:26.000 So Alex Jones, press secretary.

01:21:28.000 Well, yeah, but as far as allowing... Yes!

01:21:30.000 She said yes!

01:21:31.000 That is not what I said!

01:21:35.000 No, no, no.

01:21:35.000 It was more the other way around.

01:21:36.000 As far as, like, who is in the room to ask the president a question?

01:21:40.000 Because right now the WHA is a liberal good old boys club that's been around for a hundred years that is dictating to the president who is allowed on government property and they don't allow conservatives in the room.

01:21:51.000 And if you're a conservative and you try to get a seat on the board for WHA, you can't.

01:21:55.000 So Chanel Rion from One American News started her own competing nonprofit, and the Trump White House was considering recognizing that and getting more equal representation in the room.

01:22:05.000 Because if you see the questions that they were asking Trump, they were not fair questions.

01:22:08.000 Right.

01:22:08.000 Like, my first question that I asked Trump when I was in the White House press briefing room was, I asked him a question about what was happening with Hong Kong.

01:22:15.000 And it was, you know, Jimmy Lai had just been arrested.

01:22:18.000 So I'm asking about China and Hong Kong.

01:22:20.000 Chanel asked a question about Iran policy in the Middle East.

01:22:23.000 And then I think it was somebody from NBC asked a question about QAnon.

01:22:27.000 So it's like the supposed conspiracy right-wing journalists are asking substantive policy questions,

01:22:32.000 and then you have these other White House Correspondents Association establishment types.

01:22:37.000 They're there to make Trump look bad.

01:22:38.000 And he was egged on because he thought that it would win him points,

01:22:43.000 and it won points with the base, but I think it turned off the suburban women, 1.00

01:22:47.000 the more middle of the road people.

01:22:49.000 And so from what I understand, that would be one thing that he would change substantially.

01:22:53.000 I made a couple of posts on Instagram called the CNN challenge.

01:22:53.000 And I think it's good.

01:22:57.000 And it was, I mean, there's no real challenge.

01:23:00.000 It was turn on Fox News, and then whatever the news is, switch to CNN, and they'll be talking about Trump.

01:23:07.000 So I used to.

01:23:08.000 So, I used to have CNN playing in the background all the time.

01:23:11.000 Because, you know, my mentality was when news breaks, they'll report it really, really quickly.

01:23:17.000 And then one day, I was just sitting and, you know, I was, like, recording something, and then I turned the volume back up.

01:23:23.000 And then I'm thinking, I'm watching, and I'm just like, have they been talking about Trump all day?

01:23:27.000 Like, there was, like, a storm or something happened.

01:23:29.000 I'm like, so I changed the channel, and it was like riots in Iran.

01:23:33.000 And then I was like, wow.

01:23:35.000 All right, so I'm on Fox News now.

01:23:36.000 I normally don't watch Fox News.

01:23:38.000 And then something else was happening.

01:23:40.000 I think it was a hurricane was coming.

01:23:42.000 And I turned on CNN, and they're like doing a roundtable about Donald Trump.

01:23:46.000 And then I was just like, this is crazy.

01:23:48.000 I switched to Fox News, and they're like, here's what you need to expect with the upcoming storm.

01:23:51.000 And I was like, I guess I'll leave Fox on.

01:23:54.000 Listen, at CBS, when Fox News started, Les Moonves, who was head of CBS at the time, corporate, came into the Washington, D.C.

01:24:04.000 newsroom and convened us all around the conference table and said, is what's happening with Fox, this early popularity, is it real or is it something that just crazy people are watching?

01:24:17.000 And I was too young to speak up and finally understood that that's the wrong thing to do sometimes because I used to speak up too much in bad situations where I shouldn't.

01:24:27.000 I kept my mouth shut because I was fairly new. 1.00

01:24:28.000 Around the table every other journalist there said it's just a fake, stupid thing that's speaking to crazies. 1.00

01:24:35.000 Meantime, I had discovered what you had as a former CNN person. 0.99

01:24:38.000 I used to have CNN on in my, you know, office all day just to see if there was breaking news, and there used to be.

01:24:44.000 And when Fox came on, Fox had news before the other networks did and before CNN did often.

01:24:50.000 Sometimes a couple of days before, and then the others would follow it up.

01:24:53.000 So I started being sort of the contrarian that I am, putting Fox News on in my office.

01:24:59.000 And of course, that gets me pegged, I'm sure, around the newsroom instead of Gee, she's smart because we're all watching one thing, but we're all supposed to be kind of gathering, you know, breaking news.

01:25:09.000 And at least one person's watching another network and learning new things.

01:25:14.000 I'm sure I was pegged as sort of that crazy Fox watcher, but I saw the same thing you did, Tim.

01:25:19.000 Yep.

01:25:20.000 And then I just stopped watching.

01:25:23.000 Well, a lot of people stopped watching CNN.

01:25:25.000 Well, now they're saying with the new ownership, they're going to purge all of that stuff out of CNN.

01:25:30.000 That's just the death knell.

01:25:32.000 Also, this is my opinion, my thought, and I interviewed a lot of current and former CNNers for the last book that I wrote about all of this.

01:25:41.000 It's too endemic.

01:25:42.000 You can try.

01:25:43.000 It's sort of like Trump trying to get rid of the establishment bureaucracy that's the deep state, you might say.

01:25:50.000 You can try all you want, but they're really entrenched and strong.

01:25:50.000 I think.

01:25:54.000 And the news industry, whether it's – not that everybody feels the same way, but so

01:25:58.000 many people in the news industry and the way they're being brought up in journalism colleges,

01:26:03.000 I don't – I think that's a tough row to hoe at CNN. 0.99

01:26:06.000 I think – Did I say row to hoe? 1.00

01:26:10.000 Row to hoe. 1.00

01:26:11.000 Row to hoe. 1.00

01:26:12.000 I think freedom – I'm triggered.

01:26:13.000 Meritocracy and honesty are winning.

01:26:16.000 I'm Dr. Daniel Sinclair, and I'll see you next time.

01:26:17.000 I think you look at the collapse of the establishment press, you look at the expansion of gun rights, the narrative isn't working.

01:26:26.000 Their lies are not working.

01:26:29.000 A regular person will hear, we need background checks on abandoned assault weapons.

01:26:34.000 But now they can Google it.

01:26:36.000 And the ones who do go, hey, wait a minute, we already have background checks?

01:26:39.000 Oh, but it's a gun show loophole.

01:26:41.000 Really?

01:26:41.000 What's that?

01:26:41.000 Google?

01:26:42.000 Oh, there isn't one?

01:26:42.000 That's a lie.

01:26:43.000 It's a political term, not a real thing.

01:26:45.000 Oh, that's weird.

01:26:46.000 Well, what about assault weapons?

01:26:48.000 Assault weapons have no definition.

01:26:49.000 Wikipedia says assault weapon is ill-defined.

01:26:52.000 It typically refers to a pistol grip or forward accessories or maybe magazine size, but there's no real definition.

01:26:58.000 So when regular people are, they hear these things from Joe Biden.

01:27:02.000 Joe Biden, I gotta tell you, is red-pilling people like crazy.

01:27:05.000 When he's like, a nine-millimeter's gonna blow a lung out of the body!

01:27:09.000 You're gonna get some regular person who's gonna be like, whoa, really?

01:27:12.000 I was watching a movie.

01:27:13.000 They, that, what?

01:27:14.000 And they're gonna Google it and go, what?

01:27:16.000 That's not real.

01:27:18.000 What else isn't real?

01:27:20.000 If Joe Biden was wrong about that, what else was he wrong about?

01:27:23.000 I think you're right.

01:27:24.000 When you overplay your hands, I think the organized campaign of propagandists to try to create this artificial reality, to make fringe things seem as though they are the norm, to make the majority of people think that they are in the minority, you know, this is what social media and the Internet's been all about, People get wise, and the truth takes a little longer to be told, but the truth usually survives.

01:27:45.000 It just takes more time.

01:27:47.000 And I think we're in that phase.

01:27:49.000 Part of it is, yes, the language.

01:27:50.000 Like, that's why we made the Woktionary, is because the language, it's new concepts, it's new things that people aren't as familiar.

01:27:56.000 And then once they understand it, they're like, they reject it.

01:27:59.000 The body rejects that organ transplant.

01:28:02.000 So a new one right now is the ESG.

01:28:05.000 You know, if you ask a random person on the street, what do you think about ESG?

01:28:09.000 No?

01:28:09.000 equity social governance for investing, you know, they're not gonna know what that means, but if you explain what it

01:28:14.000 means, which is let's use

01:28:18.000 capitalism and something that should be apolitical to bludgeon and push in a socialist leftist agenda

01:28:25.000 They're gonna say that's not okay It should be apolitical.

01:28:28.000 But they don't know the lingo yet.

01:28:30.000 But they're waking up.

01:28:31.000 And that's why you have people, you know, creating Strive Capital.

01:28:34.000 You know, the guy who wrote Woke Inc.

01:28:36.000 is starting.

01:28:38.000 What you got to do is when you go to people, talk about how ESG is good.

01:28:43.000 ESG, you want to invest, and I'm not mean this literally, no financial advice.

01:28:48.000 You say, you really got to take a look at this ESG stuff.

01:28:51.000 The idea is simple.

01:28:53.000 Instead of merit, skill, determining whether or not a business succeeds, we are going to focus on political activism.

01:29:02.000 So like, if a company's gonna sell solar panels, instead of hiring engineers who have graduated with degrees, we're gonna hire activists.

01:29:11.000 That's gonna make you a good buck.

01:29:13.000 And then people are gonna be like, what?

01:29:16.000 How is my solar panel company going to make money if they're doing political activism and not selling solar panels?

01:29:20.000 It reminds me of Iron Man.

01:29:22.000 When, in the first one, he says, oh, Marvel reference, Tony Stark announces they're not doing weapons anymore, and then they have that scene of Jim Cramer saying, the stock!

01:29:30.000 And then he hits the mug with a baseball bat and says, This is a weapons company that doesn't sell weapons.

01:29:35.000 That's what ESG is.

01:29:36.000 You're investing.

01:29:37.000 I just got to say, I'm not going to tell anybody who to invest in.

01:29:41.000 My understanding is that the ESG companies did really, really poorly.

01:29:44.000 Like in terms of, you know, um, return.

01:29:47.000 That's a shock.

01:29:48.000 Yeah, I don't know, I'm just... If you want to invest in, you know, a meat processing plant that cares more about political activism than processing meat... Alright, I guess, you gotta... I was gonna say, I think that's one of the stupidest possible investments a single human being can make.

01:30:03.000 You might as well just literally donate the money to a charity. 0.99

01:30:06.000 At least then you can write it off.

01:30:07.000 Wait, hold on, you don't think that I should invest in the vegan-run meat processing plant?

01:30:12.000 No, actually, I think it's a good idea.

01:30:14.000 Oh, if there is a vegan, vegan run meat processing.

01:30:18.000 Well, I should walk the back.

01:30:19.000 What I, what I mean to say is vegan meat plant.

01:30:23.000 I thought you were saying, I thought you were saying a plant that makes fake meat.

01:30:31.000 I'm like, that's a good idea.

01:30:33.000 Look, I mean, if that were possible, yes, absolutely invest in that.

01:30:37.000 I didn't mean to give you guys bad financial advice.

01:30:37.000 I'm sorry.

01:30:39.000 It wasn't financial advice as we like to say on the show.

01:30:42.000 Well, there's a real-time example that just happened, once you explain it to shareholders.

01:30:49.000 So Carl Icahn is this hedge fund billionaire, and he's obsessed with the treatment of pregnant pigs.

01:30:55.000 And he was trying to force McDonald's to change their practices to meet his standards, not the industry best practice standards.

01:31:05.000 He said it wasn't good enough.

01:31:06.000 And so he tried to force his people to be on the board of McDonald's.

01:31:10.000 But thank God McDonald's just rejected it.

01:31:13.000 The shareholders and they voted and they said, no, keep keep your activists off our board.

01:31:17.000 They have no clue what they're talking about with actual meat processing.

01:31:20.000 Not to mention, you know, low, low income people, a lot of people, average people shop at McDonald's.

01:31:26.000 This is going to make food more expensive for them.

01:31:28.000 So you have a hedge fund billionaire trying to make food way more expensive for average people.

01:31:33.000 And they rejected it.

01:31:34.000 I just want to pull up this Forbes Advisor article.

01:31:36.000 It's not easy being green while ESG is underperforming.

01:31:40.000 Why is ESG underperforming in 2022? 1.00

01:31:42.000 I just want to say, if you think investing money into anti-meritocratic systems, you are a moron. 0.97

01:31:51.000 Also, because if these companies were profitable, you wouldn't have to invent something called ESG. 0.99

01:31:59.000 Companies would already be doing the thing that would make them money and make them more profitable as a business.

01:32:04.000 You wouldn't have to threaten them with a bad ESG score or incentivize them with a good one.

01:32:08.000 Here's the pitch.

01:32:09.000 Seamus, we're taking on investors for my company.

01:32:12.000 What do we do?

01:32:12.000 Okay.

01:32:14.000 We make pizzas.

01:32:16.000 Yes.

01:32:17.000 Chicago style.

01:32:17.000 Beautiful.

01:32:18.000 Now, who's leading the team?

01:32:20.000 Black Lives Matter.

01:32:22.000 Of course.

01:32:23.000 Now, do they have experience making pizza?

01:32:25.000 No.

01:32:26.000 But their hearts are in the right place.

01:32:28.000 Equity.

01:32:28.000 Look, I don't want my pizza made by someone whose heart isn't in the right place.

01:32:31.000 I hope you have some women up there at the top. 1.00

01:32:33.000 Exactly.

01:32:34.000 Well, hold on.

01:32:34.000 I hope you have some.

01:32:35.000 What do you mean by woman?

01:32:36.000 Mandate.

01:32:36.000 Not hope.

01:32:37.000 Someone who identifies as a woman is good enough for me.

01:32:41.000 Yeah, it's three six-foot-five dudes, but they recently transitioned.

01:32:47.000 I've been wondering why, this is kind of related, the trend we've probably all noticed in the past ten years, which are ads on TV for products and companies that aren't telling you about their product, they're telling you what they donate and what they do, and I started asking young people, because it doesn't appeal to me, I don't buy my products based on that, Apparently, young people do. 0.56

01:33:07.000 I was saying, do you care?

01:33:08.000 Do you care that this company is spending money advertising to you, or would you rather have advertising to you about the good that they do in some social realm or some position they take, or would you rather just have them sell you the best product at the lowest price?

01:33:21.000 This is a good idea.

01:33:22.000 We should do a commercial for Tim Kast and have it not in any way tell anything about the show.

01:33:27.000 We were kind of talking about that last night.

01:33:29.000 Let's do it.

01:33:30.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:33:31.000 We should.

01:33:31.000 Let's do an overly woke commercial for Tim Kast and we'll put it on Tucker.

01:33:35.000 One million percent.

01:33:36.000 I keep saying that.

01:33:36.000 The problem is, like, we need managerial power to get these things done.

01:33:39.000 Like, we wanted to do the Chicken City one, and we were gonna do our pillow, and it's never happened.

01:33:43.000 That's why I don't like talking about things, unless we're, like, in the pipeline to do it.

01:33:46.000 But projects fall apart.

01:33:47.000 But, uh, let's do it.

01:33:48.000 Did you see the Saturday Night Live skit about that?

01:33:51.000 About the woke commercials, and they were giving the awards for... I was shocked Saturday Night Live did this.

01:33:56.000 It's very funny.

01:33:57.000 The most woke commercials.

01:33:58.000 I'm shocked.

01:33:58.000 Yes, you gotta look that up.

01:34:00.000 It's very funny.

01:34:00.000 About all the things that they do.

01:34:01.000 That's the most shocking part.

01:34:02.000 Yes.

01:34:03.000 Find it.

01:34:04.000 I will, yeah.

01:34:05.000 I can't believe SNL did something funny, like that's insane.

01:34:08.000 I don't believe it's funny.

01:34:09.000 Alright everybody, if you haven't already, would you kindly smash the like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends if you really like it, because it's the best way to help the channel grow.

01:34:18.000 We're gonna read your superchats!

01:34:20.000 We got a bunch of superchats here talking about a bunch of crazy stuff, so get your superchats in while you still can.

01:34:26.000 Andre Tukalescu says, F. Castro Jr.

01:34:30.000 Heartfelt.

01:34:31.000 Every Canadian.

01:34:33.000 Oh man.

01:34:34.000 Srenik says, since they insist on putting every shooting that suits their agenda on national news, you should have your journalists start reporting on every story they can find of firearms being used to save lives.

01:34:45.000 That's a good idea, actually.

01:34:46.000 We should, you know, create like the list of self-defensive shooting stories.

01:34:52.000 I believe there is a list.

01:34:53.000 Yeah, there was one just down the road from us here in West Virginia a little while ago.

01:34:56.000 A lady took on a guy who was about to shoot up a graduation party, I think. 1.00

01:35:00.000 She took him out. 0.97

01:35:01.000 She was a concealed handgun carrier, or a handgun carrier. 0.91

01:35:03.000 I think.

01:35:03.000 I'm not sure if it's concealed or not, but yeah, it's great news.

01:35:05.000 No one covered it.

01:35:07.000 But don't you know that under the new law system that that guy, the psycho, wouldn't have had the gun, duh?

01:35:12.000 Exactly.

01:35:13.000 Right.

01:35:13.000 Criminals don't have the guns.

01:35:14.000 Yeah.

01:35:15.000 They just won't have them.

01:35:16.000 Yeah.

01:35:16.000 No, they'll just all disappear.

01:35:18.000 I was looking up this list and my brain is just so tanked right now that I googled defensive self-defense.

01:35:25.000 I was like, wait, instead of, um, no gun self.

01:35:29.000 But I've seen, I saw a list a while ago.

01:35:33.000 It's kind of a hazy memory, but even so, I think it would be good for you guys to report on the individual stories, you know, have journalists reach out to the people, talk to them about it.

01:35:41.000 I think there's people probably make running lists of that.

01:35:44.000 Yeah, I wouldn't be shocked.

01:35:46.000 All right.

01:35:47.000 Anthony Roman says, Hey Tim, I saw one of your billboards in Chicago on my way to the Cubs versus Sox game on Saturday.

01:35:52.000 Here is to keeping up the good work.

01:35:54.000 Awesome!

01:35:55.000 Glad to hear it.

01:35:56.000 I have no idea what's having an impact because it's traditional, but the idea with traditional ads is just to occupy the establishment spaces.

01:36:03.000 There's something interesting about millennials.

01:36:05.000 They put Gen Xers and Boomers on pedestals. 1.00

01:36:08.000 They view these traditional elements of civilization as beyond them.

01:36:13.000 It's a weird thing.

01:36:14.000 I wonder why that is.

01:36:16.000 You know, why is it that people get prominent on YouTube and then view themselves as not making it?

01:36:21.000 Like, if you go to these events, I've been to a lot of these, there's constantly a conversation about how, we are taking over!

01:36:28.000 Like, we are big!

01:36:30.000 It's like, you're saying it as though you don't really think you are.

01:36:33.000 And so you get these people who have millions of followers, you get hundreds of thousands of views, and they're constantly trying to justify to everybody that they actually are big shows, and I'm like, you just keep doing your thing, man.

01:36:42.000 But I think about it in terms of politics.

01:36:44.000 Why Nancy Pelosi is still an off, like, still 80 years old, Dianne Feinstein, all these, Joe Biden.

01:36:50.000 For some reason, few millennials are engaging at the highest level of the stuff.

01:36:55.000 They don't own stuff.

01:36:56.000 They have a disproportionately low amount of wealth relative to previous generations at their same age. 0.54

01:37:03.000 They're not engaging in high-level politics the way the previous generations were.

01:37:06.000 They're just stunted, I suppose.

01:37:08.000 They're spending all their time, I just think, all the stuff there is to do online.

01:37:12.000 I mean, you guys, maybe you're too young to remember a time that wasn't like that.

01:37:17.000 I wonder about how much effort goes into internal stuff online that used to go into inventing things and creating things and thinking about new things, you know?

01:37:27.000 Starting a family.

01:37:28.000 Yeah.

01:37:29.000 Yeah.

01:37:30.000 All right.

01:37:31.000 Mark H says, Ian, if you hear this knock twice, we want to help you.

01:37:36.000 What was that?

01:37:37.000 Stop it! 0.99

01:37:38.000 Get out of there, Ian.

01:37:39.000 I was about to knock.

01:37:44.000 I was about to knock.

01:37:45.000 And then I saw you move your hand down and I was like, oh.

01:37:48.000 I beat you to it.

01:37:50.000 Tattered Shield says, hey Tim, I'm an electrician looking to move to West Virginia.

01:37:54.000 Got any idea of where the best to move out there?

01:37:57.000 Um, I don't know.

01:38:00.000 I need an electrician in Virginia.

01:38:02.000 A good electrician.

01:38:03.000 There you go.

01:38:04.000 Northern Virginia.

01:38:06.000 Yeah, you know, we chose this area.

01:38:07.000 It's the tri-state because it's close enough to the big city in the airports So we could be kind of far away, but we're moving further west into West Virginia.

01:38:14.000 So that's being all being built right now L bossert says if Chuck and Nancy banned body armor that will turn every parent who just bought a bulletproof backpack into a felon Why are they talking about doing that?

01:38:26.000 Is that what's happening?

01:38:27.000 Didn't they say something in New York City about banning?

01:38:30.000 Yeah, that's a Supreme Court case going on.

01:38:33.000 Protecting yourself is forbidden.

01:38:35.000 They also want to take the certain body armor away from police and say if it's in the military you can't refurbish it or give it to the police.

01:38:43.000 That's nuts.

01:38:44.000 What's the point?

01:38:45.000 I don't get it.

01:38:47.000 YWBSPQR says, this Memorial Day I'd like to also honor those that lost their lives to experimental procedures, corrupt leadership, toxic exposure, stock portfolios, and suicide.

01:38:58.000 Never forget.

01:38:59.000 Yeah, there's a lot of really bad stuff throughout history, man.

01:39:03.000 SeriouslyJK says, Seamus, membership signup doesn't work properly for your information.

01:39:07.000 What?

01:39:07.000 Okay, so we've definitely gotten some signups, but I can talk to the web dev people.

01:39:12.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:39:12.000 I'm sorry that it didn't work for you.

01:39:14.000 Troubleshooting phase.

01:39:15.000 Yes, we will.

01:39:16.000 Yes, we are definitely in the troubleshooting phase.

01:39:18.000 That's exciting.

01:39:18.000 But if anyone else is having that problem, please let me know.

01:39:22.000 Give your home number.

01:39:23.000 I'll leave a comment below the video and you'll let me know if you're having problems with that.

01:39:27.000 Substance says, bruh, they got a lot of grizzly bears and a lot of polar bears in Canada, and he just took people's most easiest form of defense away from them.

01:39:34.000 I don't think polar bears are an issue for Canadians.

01:39:38.000 Something about... I think way, way, way up north.

01:39:41.000 Yeah, but there's like no one up there.

01:39:43.000 Moose?

01:39:43.000 Yeah, moose are a bigger problem.

01:39:44.000 They're up there working in the syrup mines.

01:39:46.000 Yeah, that's true.

01:39:47.000 Yeah, people don't realize that up in the far north of Canada, in the syrup mines, it's frozen, and they have to use a pickaxe to chip it away, and when they bring it down south, where it gets warmer, it naturally For the record, there are no penguins in the North Pole, if you ever see them.

01:40:00.000 They're in the South Pole.

01:40:01.000 Do you know what maple syrup is made from? Half maple, half syrup, right? Dinosaurs.

01:40:04.000 Yeah, that's right. For the record, there are no penguins in the North Pole. If you

01:40:12.000 ever see them, they're in the South Pole. I went to Antarctica and I learned that fact,

01:40:17.000 so if you ever see them, any Christmas things with penguins in the North Pole? Fake news.

01:40:21.000 Patagonia.

01:40:22.000 I didn't know that.

01:40:22.000 they're in South America. They're not just in Antarctica.

01:40:25.000 They're in the South. Yeah.

01:40:26.000 So, you know, you'll see like trees and stuff with penguins and people don't realize because

01:40:31.000 they think penguins are only on ice or whatever. I didn't know that.

01:40:34.000 For the record, maple syrup comes from maple trees. But I think you all knew that.

01:40:38.000 Is that?

01:40:39.000 You're gonna get a warning!

01:40:41.000 Maple syrup in the grocery store only has sugar in it.

01:40:44.000 Yeah, it's not the same.

01:40:46.000 And caramel color.

01:40:47.000 Is it even sugar or is it just corn syrup?

01:40:49.000 Or is it even syrup?

01:40:50.000 Corn syrup with dye.

01:40:51.000 Corn syrup with dye and stuff.

01:40:53.000 And sodium benzoate.

01:40:54.000 But if you buy maple syrup, it's maple syrup.

01:40:56.000 If you buy like... Maple flavored syrup.

01:40:59.000 Or like breakfast syrup.

01:41:01.000 They call it table syrup.

01:41:02.000 That's so...

01:41:04.000 It is syrup, it's corn syrup.

01:41:06.000 That's crazy.

01:41:07.000 Tastes so good.

01:41:08.000 I heard that when the colonists came, the Native Americans saw squirrels licking trees, and so they were like, alright, and they cut it open and got the maple syrup out and then showed the... My goodness, did they try eating acorns too? 0.92

01:41:20.000 You see a squirrel lick something and you're like, well, I have to try it.

01:41:22.000 Did you know?

01:41:24.000 You know you can eat maple seeds?

01:41:27.000 Yeah, we call them helicopters in Chicago.

01:41:29.000 But then it grows out of your stomach is the problem.

01:41:31.000 Yeah, you can't do that.

01:41:32.000 Yeah, you turn into a tree.

01:41:33.000 Yeah, no helicopter leaves.

01:41:35.000 What do they taste like?

01:41:37.000 I don't know, but I always noticed when I was a kid, you'd break them up and there'd be like a little nut, like a little seed, and they roast them with like cinnamon and nutmeg.

01:41:44.000 I would just eat them raw, you know?

01:41:46.000 I'd pick them up off the ground.

01:41:47.000 That's not right, Janice.

01:41:48.000 Eat the helicopters?

01:41:49.000 He's dying.

01:41:51.000 All right, let's see what we got.

01:41:53.000 Some more Super Chats.

01:41:54.000 A lot of people are just yelling at Trudeau and saying words I can't repeat, but okay.

01:42:00.000 Carter Chrysler says, Army just awarded SIG for contract on the new rifle chambered in 6.8.

01:42:05.000 So the 5.56 might well soon be phased out of the military.

01:42:08.000 Really?

01:42:08.000 For 6.8?

01:42:09.000 Why that?

01:42:11.000 Why 6.8?

01:42:12.000 Someone super chat and give us a good, robust explanation of why.

01:42:17.000 Yeah.

01:42:20.000 Archimedes says Seamus, I just sent you an article.

01:42:22.000 On top of the handgun ban, they are moving to shut down independent media.

01:42:26.000 Finally!

01:42:27.000 Yeah, I'm so sick of those independent media people, like, lying us into war and spreading conspiracy theories about... Oh, wait a minute...

01:42:37.000 I switched, that's called the old bait-and-switch for anyone who wants comedy writing tips and tricks.

01:42:44.000 Sir Lemongrab says, Tim and cast, if the left and liberals made a rapture, Bioshock, like place, how long would it take to fail and collapse?

01:42:52.000 Two weeks.

01:42:53.000 That's it, two weeks.

01:42:54.000 Well yeah, how long did Chaz last?

01:42:57.000 Remember when there was like an actual insurrection and left wearers took over several city blocks?

01:43:00.000 Yeah, and there were sexual assaults and rapes and all sorts of violence, yes.

01:43:06.000 All sorts of reasons that you need a gun.

01:43:07.000 Exactly.

01:43:09.000 As a woman, as a biological woman.

01:43:12.000 An actual one, yes.

01:43:13.000 Says you.

01:43:14.000 Says me.

01:43:16.000 No, guns are an equalizer.

01:43:17.000 It's an equalizer of force.

01:43:18.000 I mean, yeah, you could rest it on my hands, but it's, I mean, I think it's sexist to try to take away from women. 0.96

01:43:24.000 It absolutely is.

01:43:25.000 Oh yeah, I agree.

01:43:26.000 Oliver Tractors has asked Cheryl about FBI threatening her husband.

01:43:32.000 Yes, so part of the FBI surveillance on, the illegal surveillance that I'm suing them over now, in year X, whatever we're in now, part of what one of the sources who admitted being part of this operation to surveil me, there were multiple operations, not just me, other journalists were being surveilled of course, but they acknowledged they were intending to plant child porn on my husband's computer.

01:43:59.000 Wow.

01:43:59.000 They say they knew we had a young daughter at home at the time.

01:44:02.000 I mean, that blows your mind because that shows they understand.

01:44:06.000 Well, how did you find that out?

01:44:09.000 One of the federal agents involved through our lawsuits who's spoken to us has talked about that they never accomplished that part because we discovered the operation before, I guess it was closed down, that part of it.

01:44:20.000 Wow.

01:44:21.000 We have all the forensics showing what they did.

01:44:23.000 There was no porn in the computer, but that was a discussed plan, according to this one federal agent.

01:44:28.000 And I've mentioned recently, when I've spoken of this, that there's a current lawsuit, totally unrelated to anything I'm talking about now, but where a former FBI agent has admitted that they planted porn, you know, on suspects' computers.

01:44:44.000 That is insane.

01:44:44.000 Yeah, anything's possible.

01:44:46.000 It's really scary.

01:44:47.000 And how did they get in?

01:44:48.000 Did they actually break into the person's house or with a virus or just...?

01:44:52.000 I don't know in that case, but it's so easy for them.

01:44:54.000 With me, they have remote entry to all my devices and computers, so they can operate your computer.

01:44:59.000 This is years ago.

01:45:00.000 It's even easier now, but they can come in through your Verizon system, your Fios line, and operate remotely as if they're sitting in front of your computer.

01:45:07.000 Yeah, of course, right?

01:45:07.000 The NSA can get into everything, basically.

01:45:09.000 As I was told, like butter.

01:45:11.000 You know, it's not even hard for them, even if you have firewalls up.

01:45:14.000 Wow.

01:45:15.000 What story were you investigating that led to that?

01:45:18.000 Well, we don't know.

01:45:20.000 There were many stories.

01:45:21.000 So Fast and Furious, they accessed that information in those files in my computer, and they accessed the CBS system, proprietary system, during that time period.

01:45:29.000 But I was working on a lot of other stories, too, about pharmaceutical industry.

01:45:32.000 I was working on Republican corruption stories, as well.

01:45:35.000 But I think Fast and Furious was a big one.

01:45:37.000 Then Benghazi.

01:45:38.000 So there were at least two phases of the surveillance on me.

01:45:41.000 I think they were watching a lot of Washington journalists at the time, and they probably still are.

01:45:47.000 Why wouldn't they?

01:45:49.000 All right.

01:45:50.000 Legama Thagayan says, if Antifa and other domestic terrorist arms of the Democratic Party are just an idea and don't exist, yet Dems donate money to bail them out, then my Tavor 7308 is likewise a social construct that doesn't exist, and I get to spend money on feeding it lead.

01:46:07.000 Love it.

01:46:07.000 There you go.

01:46:08.000 There's your way out.

01:46:09.000 Good luck.

01:46:10.000 Ethan's threat was, it was just an idea.

01:46:12.000 Yeah.

01:46:12.000 It doesn't exist.

01:46:13.000 It doesn't exist.

01:46:15.000 Philosophical concepts.

01:46:16.000 It's in Minecraft.

01:46:18.000 Mini Strange Quark says, Shamrock, Shamus, Shamrock, you just got a $10 sub on Freedom Tunes.

01:46:24.000 I love you.

01:46:24.000 I support crazy peanut leprechaun peanut tune makers.

01:46:27.000 Is that a peanut?

01:46:29.000 Oh, it's a potato.

01:46:29.000 It's a potato!

01:46:32.000 I love you.

01:46:33.000 I don't love the racism.

01:46:35.000 Thank you for the money, much appreciated.

01:46:37.000 I really appreciate that.

01:46:38.000 We're trying to really get this running well, so if you guys experience anything, I know one person mentioned they had trouble signing up, just DM me on Twitter at Seamus underscore Coghlan, which is super easy to spell.

01:46:51.000 I'm sure it'll be linked in the description below.

01:46:54.000 That's right, it is indeed.

01:46:55.000 Thank you so much for your support.

01:46:56.000 By the way, potatoes are indigenous to North and South America.

01:46:59.000 It's true.

01:47:00.000 It's cultural appropriation.

01:47:02.000 You can't even use that, whoever this kind subscriber.

01:47:05.000 Get a new icon.

01:47:06.000 Whenever I get Seamus something, I'll be like, hey Seamus, I got you something.

01:47:09.000 This is true.

01:47:10.000 It's a potato, isn't it?

01:47:11.000 It's a potato thing.

01:47:12.000 I'm like, Tim, this is something racist.

01:47:14.000 He's like, no bro, I really got you something cool.

01:47:16.000 I'm like, it's gonna be racist.

01:47:17.000 Why is it?

01:47:18.000 Is it because I got you a potato once?

01:47:20.000 It's because...

01:47:21.000 Once.

01:47:22.000 So many times.

01:47:24.000 Every time you got me something except like two times it was a potato.

01:47:28.000 No, that's not true.

01:47:29.000 So I found this rare coin from like... Oh, that's true.

01:47:34.000 Two times.

01:47:34.000 No, so two times.

01:47:36.000 What are you talking about?

01:47:37.000 I got you an iTunes gift card.

01:47:38.000 That's true.

01:47:39.000 But that's two times.

01:47:40.000 Right?

01:47:40.000 The iTunes gift card.

01:47:41.000 Which, by the way, is a very nice gift.

01:47:43.000 And also, the potatoes are nice.

01:47:44.000 Like, I don't turn that down.

01:47:45.000 It's not like he gives me the potatoes.

01:47:47.000 It's good food!

01:47:47.000 I'm like, this is an insult to my people!

01:47:50.000 I'm like, how could you do something like this?

01:47:52.000 We went to a collector's shop, and they had a coin that is from the time of Jesus Christ.

01:47:59.000 And they believe it may have been the coin used by St.

01:48:01.000 Casper.

01:48:02.000 And so I was like, I gotta get this for Seamus.

01:48:04.000 And so I didn't want to tell him what it was, because I was like, it's really cool.

01:48:07.000 And Seamus was convinced it was a potato.

01:48:09.000 And I was like, it's not a potato.

01:48:10.000 It's two potatoes.

01:48:11.000 Potato-related?

01:48:12.000 It's two potatoes.

01:48:13.000 That's right.

01:48:14.000 And then Tim's like, no, it's really good.

01:48:15.000 And then I said, three.

01:48:16.000 And so what I did was, when he showed up, French fries.

01:48:20.000 Instead of handing him the coin right away, I pulled out a packet of potato paper.

01:48:23.000 Exactly.

01:48:25.000 It's sheets of potato starch that we got for a gag.

01:48:28.000 Joke's on you.

01:48:28.000 They were delicious.

01:48:29.000 I'm sure they were.

01:48:30.000 Gross.

01:48:32.000 Oh my goodness. 0.75

01:48:32.000 So, uh, I went to the movies. 0.75

01:48:33.000 I noticed nobody was there.

01:48:34.000 It was kind of crazy.

01:48:35.000 What time did you go?

01:48:36.000 It was late at night.

01:48:36.000 Really?

01:48:36.000 Yeah, it was like, we saw an 8 o'clock showing.

01:48:38.000 dismantle your freedoms via fear, threatening the financial stability of your family while

01:48:42.000 increasing the reliance upon the government.

01:48:57.000 Yeah, Saturday night.

01:48:58.000 We went Saturday too.

01:48:59.000 Saturday night as well.

01:49:00.000 I went Saturday night also, but it was, yeah, I think, well, I went to, they didn't pay me to say this, but there's, it's called the Alamo Draft House Cinema.

01:49:08.000 It's like a chain now.

01:49:09.000 Yeah, they're super woke.

01:49:10.000 You can get dinner.

01:49:11.000 Oh, I don't, I, they didn't, I didn't see any of that.

01:49:13.000 So if they are, then that's annoying, but I didn't see any of that.

01:49:15.000 It's, uh, no, but they, you, it's like dinner, you order, you can get drinks and, and it was packed.

01:49:21.000 But, uh, we went there and it was super empty, which was really weird to me.

01:49:26.000 I'm like, where, where are the humans?

01:49:27.000 Like the buildings were all short staffed.

01:49:30.000 The theater removed all of like the arcade machines.

01:49:33.000 When we were sitting down waiting for the movie to start the commercial for the movie subscription thing comes on and it's like, 21 bucks a month!

01:49:40.000 No, I think it was like 14 bucks.

01:49:42.000 Unlimited movies!

01:49:43.000 Just show up!

01:49:44.000 And I'm like, there's nobody here.

01:49:46.000 So are there people who are really like, you know, I'm gonna just spend 14 bucks a month?

01:49:52.000 I thought it was weird that everything is going subscription.

01:49:55.000 It was like 20-something dollars a month, right?

01:49:56.000 Yeah, it was 21, wasn't it?

01:49:57.000 So for it to really be worth it, I mean, for it to really pay for itself, you'd have to go to the movie three times.

01:50:04.000 Yeah, three weekends out of your month.

01:50:06.000 That's not the issue.

01:50:07.000 The issue is, Everything is becoming subscription.

01:50:09.000 Yeah.

01:50:10.000 And that's all I said, right?

01:50:11.000 So I tweeted, you know, has everyone noticed, like, everything's basically subscription these days?

01:50:16.000 And then I get all these people being like, what do you mean?

01:50:19.000 What's your point?

01:50:19.000 And I'm like, that people are embracing subscription.

01:50:22.000 I don't know.

01:50:22.000 Go to membersattimcast.com and subscribe.

01:50:25.000 By the way, guys, go to freedomtunes.com.

01:50:27.000 Become a member, please.

01:50:28.000 I'm serious.

01:50:29.000 We need your help.

01:50:30.000 People were like, you have subscriptions on your website.

01:50:34.000 What do you mean?

01:50:34.000 And I was just like, I didn't say not to do it.

01:50:37.000 I didn't say it was bad.

01:50:39.000 It's a trend.

01:50:40.000 I just said it's kind of crazy.

01:50:42.000 I said people are getting used to the idea of simple deductions in exchange for just freely available services.

01:50:47.000 Okay, you brought up my theory now.

01:50:49.000 This is why young people are not going to have wealth. 0.99

01:50:53.000 You watch what they spend.

01:50:54.000 You know what bark boxes are?

01:50:56.000 Advertise to get a new box of toys and treats for your dogs.

01:50:59.000 And then there's Birchbox, which is like, I think like perfume and accessories.

01:51:05.000 And you see young people, I'm like, you don't have that kind of money.

01:51:08.000 Like, you should be saving your money for your old age.

01:51:11.000 But actually, hold on.

01:51:13.000 What you're neglecting is that there are a handful of Millennials who will get really rich selling that stuff.

01:51:18.000 I got an idea.

01:51:19.000 Hear me out.

01:51:20.000 We go to a bunch of different chain restaurants, popular ones, Chipotle, Panda Express, whatever, and then we create a membership program where, for 50 bucks a month, you get unlimited access to all of these places.

01:51:35.000 How do you provide it?

01:51:37.000 Provide what?

01:51:37.000 How do you provide the access to those places?

01:51:40.000 He doesn't.

01:51:40.000 It's a scam.

01:51:41.000 That's why we make the money.

01:51:42.000 I go to the business and say, you know, track and log every person who comes in and then we pay you a rate based on total usage.

01:51:50.000 Do it.

01:51:51.000 And then what happens is you get a membership card and you don't gotta worry about paying Olive Garden or whatever.

01:51:55.000 You show up.

01:51:57.000 And we do the same thing with groceries.

01:51:59.000 You will just deduct the money on the first of every month, automatically, and everything is just provided to you.

01:52:06.000 If you need to fix your car, you just drive to the mechanic.

01:52:08.000 You don't have to worry about paying any money.

01:52:10.000 If you want to get food, you go to the store.

01:52:12.000 And then here's the best part.

01:52:13.000 Eventually, when we go belly up because it's an unsustainable business model, we get subsidized by the government because we're too big to fail.

01:52:19.000 The government buys the program and now everyone Excellent.

01:52:22.000 I thought this ended up with someone getting put against the wall for opposing the regime.

01:52:26.000 I thought we were doing a communism analogy.

01:52:28.000 It was, but that's like 10 years down the line.

01:52:31.000 What movie did you see?

01:52:33.000 What did we see?

01:52:34.000 Oh, Firestarter.

01:52:35.000 Was it good?

01:52:36.000 Although now I regret it.

01:52:37.000 Is that a remake?

01:52:37.000 I want to see Maverick.

01:52:38.000 Is that a remake?

01:52:39.000 It's a Stephen King novel.

01:52:39.000 I think they remade it.

01:52:41.000 Maverick, oh my god.

01:52:42.000 And I'm not easy to please on the movies.

01:52:44.000 Everybody loved it.

01:52:45.000 The best.

01:52:45.000 It was amazing.

01:52:46.000 But I don't want to say that because then if you go expecting too much.

01:52:48.000 Yes.

01:52:49.000 I just, the reason I didn't see it is because I was like, 60-year-old man tries to school young pilots, and I was like... And he does, baby.

01:52:55.000 He does.

01:52:59.000 I like never go to the movies anymore.

01:53:02.000 Do you guys go to... I mean, is it... Even before COVID.

01:53:05.000 No, I know, but that was the first time in forever.

01:53:07.000 Everybody in the room except you went to a movie this weekend.

01:53:09.000 You know what they're doing now, movie theaters?

01:53:11.000 Because no one's showing up.

01:53:12.000 It's because you're Irish. 1.00

01:53:13.000 It's because I don't have friends, actually. 0.99

01:53:14.000 You're poor. 0.99

01:53:15.000 You're a poor Irish. 1.00

01:53:15.000 It's because I'm insufferable. 1.00

01:53:16.000 Oh, okay.

01:53:17.000 Movie theaters.

01:53:18.000 I'm Irish, too.

01:53:20.000 Movie theaters are not just playing any movie.

01:53:22.000 You'll look and you'll see, like, movies from 10 years ago.

01:53:24.000 Yeah.

01:53:24.000 And they're also allowing screen rentals for video games.

01:53:27.000 And birthday parties.

01:53:29.000 I think we should do the video game thing.

01:53:31.000 Like, we should... That's cool.

01:53:32.000 Yeah, for sure.

01:53:33.000 Yeah.

01:53:33.000 And we should play... What game should we play?

01:53:35.000 I could just beat you at Smash Bros.

01:53:37.000 on a large screen.

01:53:38.000 Well, I think, Tim, kind of what you might be getting at, at least thinking about the subscription, a lot of it is, like, It's surrendering power through suggestion, and then also default.

01:53:50.000 Like, if your life is getting more and more on autopilot, and suggestion, and default, you are surrendering more and more of your decision-making.

01:53:58.000 Which, you know, is for convenience, a lot of people do.

01:54:02.000 I mean, I gotta be honest.

01:54:04.000 Legit, if there was a service where it was like $100 a month, and you had unlimited access to a variety of cars parked all over the place, I totally would get it.

01:54:12.000 There's one actually. I think it's called a...

01:54:15.000 Zip car?

01:54:16.000 No, it's like called something Truebol or... I'll look it up.

01:54:19.000 But it's like nicer cars. Like you can get luxury cars.

01:54:22.000 Yeah.

01:54:22.000 You can like...

01:54:23.000 Someone was telling... Yeah, a friend of mine was saying...

01:54:25.000 Then you get in a Cadillac and there's a body in the trunk.

01:54:28.000 You're like, okay, maybe I should have Ubered.

01:54:30.000 The problem with a lot of the car sharing, and I could be wrong about this, where it is...

01:54:34.000 T-U-R-O. 1.00

01:54:35.000 Turo is car rental.

01:54:37.000 Isn't that what you're saying?

01:54:40.000 What I mean is like you're walking down the street and you're like scooters around town you can just like the scooters exactly exactly so the scooters all over the cities I'm sure most people have seen them you walk up you're in DC I love the scooters they're they're awesome people got to be more responsible with them but you walk up to the scooter you scan with your phone and then just ride if they did cars that way like you walk up there's a car and you go all right this one's good So you're parking, yeah.

01:55:01.000 That's great.

01:55:02.000 Yeah, and then you just take the car.

01:55:03.000 I'd totally do it.

01:55:05.000 And then it's just like, it's very much like they used to have zip cars.

01:55:08.000 I don't know what they still call them.

01:55:09.000 They still have them.

01:55:10.000 But they're few and far between.

01:55:12.000 I suppose you get the app, you look them up.

01:55:14.000 I love that idea.

01:55:15.000 You know, so I'm like, hey man, you know, I can't stand driving my car into the city.

01:55:19.000 Especially in the city, yeah.

01:55:20.000 Yeah, it's just, it's annoying.

01:55:22.000 Stressful.

01:55:22.000 Yeah.

01:55:23.000 Out in the country, driving's fun.

01:55:25.000 Be like me, don't have a car.

01:55:27.000 I haven't owned a car since 2011.

01:55:31.000 Alright, John King says, Tara Lawson Raymer, San Diego County Supervisor and World Bank Economist, put out a hilarious list of myths on her website. 0.99

01:55:40.000 Sunlight for disinfectant, please.

01:55:41.000 SOS.

01:55:43.000 What was it about?

01:55:44.000 Who is this that put this up?

01:55:45.000 Tara Lawson Raymer.

01:55:48.000 DiscoSpinach says, I thought Seamus was going to apologize for being back at the top of the show.

01:55:52.000 I demand an apology for having to deal with him again.

01:55:54.000 JK, glad you're back.

01:55:55.000 Thank you.

01:55:56.000 Well, look, I will apologize for nothing.

01:55:59.000 I was working hard getting this website launched for you, because I love you.

01:56:03.000 And you're going to super chat Tim, and you're not going to subscribe to my website that I built for you.

01:56:08.000 Literally for you.

01:56:09.000 What's his name?

01:56:10.000 What's the name again?

01:56:11.000 Can you read the name again off the super chat?

01:56:13.000 I built it for you!

01:56:14.000 So go to readitoftoons.com and for five bucks a month, that's not, five bucks a month, you're going to get extra cartoons.

01:56:21.000 You're going to get extra cartoons.

01:56:22.000 There's a bunch of stuff up there now.

01:56:24.000 You'll be supporting independent content.

01:56:25.000 You're going to love it.

01:56:31.000 Ah, you got me.

01:56:32.000 Exactly.

01:56:33.000 I knew what you were trying to do there.

01:56:35.000 Give away all your property.

01:56:36.000 Can't pull the wool over my eyes.

01:56:38.000 All right, Bringer of D says, nothing makes me feel more Canadian than following all the rules only to get punished anyway by targeted crime prevention initiatives.

01:56:46.000 Here's a hundred bucks for the crew, give a big F-Trudeau for me, and here's a plug for the CCFR, NFA, and CSSA, Canada's gun rights orgs.

01:56:55.000 Right on.

01:56:56.000 NFA.

01:56:58.000 Well, the NFA is the National Firearms Act in the United States, and that one's a bad one.

01:57:01.000 NFAC is very different.

01:57:03.000 Alright, Poly Author says, I've created a website that allows people to enter in one word at a time.

01:57:08.000 Articles are temporary for now, but will eventually be saved to a database.

01:57:12.000 It's open for public testing at polyauthor.com.

01:57:16.000 YouTube doesn't allow messages that sound like .com.

01:57:19.000 Do you want to pull that up and see if it works?

01:57:21.000 Absolutely.

01:57:22.000 Do it with my computer?

01:57:23.000 The link that we've never been to before?

01:57:24.000 Yeah.

01:57:25.000 Let me just pull it up on my PC?

01:57:26.000 See if it works?

01:57:27.000 What?

01:57:27.000 I got a website I'm trying to launch here.

01:57:29.000 It's gonna crash my computer.

01:57:31.000 Shamus is scared you think you're phishing.

01:57:32.000 What if I get a virus?

01:57:32.000 What if he's phishing?

01:57:33.000 What if I get a virus, Tim?

01:57:34.000 Use your phone.

01:57:35.000 That's great.

01:57:36.000 Yeah.

01:57:37.000 Won't get a virus on my phone.

01:57:39.000 That's right.

01:57:41.000 What was this?

01:57:42.000 www.patriottruth.wordpress.blogspot.info?

01:57:48.000 That's the name of my new social media site, by the way.

01:57:50.000 I know that I was plugging the Freedom Tunes website.

01:57:53.000 I have a new social media company I've just started called patriottruthtelling.wordpress.blogspot.truth.net.

01:58:01.000 It's a catchy name and we're hoping... Wait, actually, speaking of that, are you guys on Truth Social?

01:58:07.000 Um, no, no.

01:58:08.000 I just joined.

01:58:09.000 Well, I was on the waiting list for like two months and I just got off it and it's not as good right now as Getter.

01:58:16.000 Getter has a lot more features.

01:58:17.000 You can go live.

01:58:18.000 You know what's way better?

01:58:19.000 Hold on.

01:58:19.000 You know what's way better though?

01:58:20.000 I've hoped for it though.

01:58:21.000 I hope, I mean, it's, you know, I like Trump, so I, I, I hope he gets good people to help him build it.

01:58:26.000 Well, I have something.

01:58:27.000 I know a better website.

01:58:29.000 It's called freedomtunes.com and if you go there for $5 a month, you'll get an extra cartoon every week.

01:58:34.000 There are five cartoons up there now.

01:58:35.000 There's behind the scenes.

01:58:36.000 You're gonna see footage of Tim and I improvising videos.

01:58:38.000 You're gonna see time lapses with commentaries about the videos.

01:58:41.000 You're gonna love it.

01:58:41.000 It's an extra cartoon every single week.

01:58:43.000 Alright, Rorschachsno says, Hi Cheryl, considering the founding documents of our

01:58:47.000 country, such as the Magna Carta, a woman's Bill of Rights isn't that unusual. 1.00

02:00:04.000 But it has the word son in it, so I'm sorry.

02:00:06.000 Alright, let's read some more.

02:00:07.000 We got Dank.

02:00:07.000 He says, Hi Tim, I recently graduated from uni with a BA in comms and I want to work for you.

02:00:11.000 I'm a TV producer-engineer with two and a half years of experience, six years of video editing experience, six years of voice acting experience.

02:00:16.000 I play three instruments.

02:00:18.000 I'm fluent in Russian.

02:00:19.000 Dank, send an email to timp at timcast.com.

02:00:24.000 Which instruments?

02:00:27.000 I play violin, piano, and oboe.

02:00:30.000 I play the guitar, the acoustic guitar, the acoustic electric guitar, and the bass.

02:00:36.000 Drums.

02:00:37.000 Piano, clarinet.

02:00:39.000 I play the synth, the drum machine... Zither?

02:00:43.000 The, uh... The triangle?

02:00:45.000 That's what a zither is.

02:00:46.000 Lydia knows.

02:00:47.000 I actually do play the drums, and actually, I play guitar, bass, and drums.

02:00:50.000 But guitar and bass, it's like, if you can play guitar, you can play bass.

02:00:53.000 I mean, not necessarily if you can, like, slap and stuff.

02:00:55.000 That's a different skill set from strumming.

02:00:58.000 But, you know.

02:00:59.000 Yeah.

02:01:01.000 That's really offensive to bassists, by the way.

02:01:02.000 You're probably gonna get in trouble for that.

02:01:04.000 Well, like a real bass player...

02:01:06.000 They can legit play the bass.

02:01:08.000 But someone who can play the guitar can play the bass.

02:01:10.000 Just doesn't mean you're not going to be good at it, right?

02:01:12.000 You'll be good enough at it.

02:01:14.000 It's like anyone can play a bass but not be good at it, right?

02:01:16.000 Like anyone can play any instrument really badly.

02:01:18.000 If you can play the guitar, you can pick up the bass and play bass for your band.

02:01:22.000 But you want a real bass player who's got good writing skills.

02:01:26.000 True.

02:01:26.000 Rommel says, I'm an engineer for Sig Sauer.

02:01:29.000 The army wanted a projectile and rifle that is capable of penetrating body armor at long ranges.

02:01:34.000 The advancement and level 4 armpit makes it much easier and lighter to use.

02:01:39.000 Love y'all.

02:01:40.000 Interesting.

02:01:42.000 All right.

02:01:43.000 Spiro Floropoulos says, um, so I've messaged about Sources Say Online three times now.

02:01:47.000 Any love for that?

02:01:48.000 Same as that website, one word at a time.

02:01:51.000 Uh, we'll write on.

02:01:52.000 We'll have to check out SourcesSay.Online and see what it's all about.

02:01:56.000 SourcesSay.Online looks way better than polyauthor.com.

02:02:00.000 Just saying.

02:02:01.000 Oh! 0.60

02:02:02.000 We got a fight happening.

02:02:03.000 All right, we'll check it out.

02:02:16.000 We swear a lot.

02:02:17.000 It's the after-dark show, not for your kids.

02:02:20.000 After hours.

02:02:21.000 What do you mean we swear a lot, Tim?

02:02:23.000 You swear a lot.

02:02:24.000 I do swear.

02:02:37.000 Cheryl, did you want to shout anything out?

02:02:40.000 CherylAkison.com.

02:02:41.000 Also, I'm giving out an independent journalism cash award called the ION Awards.

02:02:47.000 I've already done it at two journalism schools, but now to professional journalists for off-narrative reporting.

02:02:51.000 If you know anybody, today's the last day, maybe tomorrow, to enter.

02:02:54.000 Go to CherylAkison.com, read more.

02:02:56.000 Because I'm trying to encourage people to do reporting more the old-fashioned way like we used to.

02:03:00.000 So, how many people?

02:03:03.000 Was it 20 people win the Pulitzer every year?

02:03:05.000 I don't even know.

02:03:06.000 That's the print awards.

02:03:07.000 I think it's 20 people, and they get $15,000 each for a Pulitzer.

02:03:11.000 So I've been talking with some people.

02:03:13.000 We have a non-profit for fact-checking, and I think we're going to start doing awards.

02:03:17.000 I think that's brilliant.

02:03:19.000 I'm giving $3,000 to the students and $3,000 for the professional of my money, which to journalists, as a young journalist, that's a lot of money to me.

02:03:26.000 It's a big deal, yeah.

02:03:27.000 That's nice.

02:03:28.000 And I judge the Emmys every year.

02:03:31.000 I still let you do that.

02:03:33.000 I'm impressed.

02:03:34.000 Good for you.

02:03:35.000 There's some great entries every year from almost every news organization.

02:03:38.000 They're just not always prominent stories.

02:03:40.000 But isn't it pay to play?

02:03:42.000 As someone who's received quite a few Emmys myself, Not always.

02:03:47.000 I hope not.

02:03:48.000 But it's the same, it tends to be the same 10 stories over and over year after year, if you know what I mean.

02:03:52.000 Like the same foreign stories with the same themes, even the same domestic stories by different reporters.

02:03:59.000 And some of it's very good reporting, but it's very on the narrative.

02:04:02.000 And if you do anything that's not these days off, if you do anything that's not on the narrative, you're not going to win any of those awards.

02:04:08.000 So I'm trying to recognize some of those.

02:04:10.000 It needs to be, what we want to do is you don't need to apply for it.

02:04:14.000 So that's, like, the M is you apply for it, don't you?

02:04:17.000 Yes.

02:04:17.000 News organization or whatnot.

02:04:19.000 That feels fake to me, to be completely honest.

02:04:21.000 You know, so having worked in corporate press, it's like, now submit to us what you think is worthy, and you have to pay a fee?

02:04:27.000 Yes.

02:04:29.000 Yeah, they have full-time people, and that's their job, is to apply for awards for the news outlets.

02:04:34.000 Yeah, when I worked, they had people on staff and it was like, make sure you're submitting and paying the fees.

02:04:38.000 And I'm like, so they make a bunch of money off the fees?

02:04:40.000 They do.

02:04:41.000 And then give it to the person they think is better?

02:04:43.000 It's like, that's gambling to me.

02:04:44.000 The only difference is, like, if you're not in the club, you don't win.

02:04:47.000 Oh, and it's never retracted, like all those Pulitzers who went for all of the Russia hoax-gate.

02:04:53.000 What we're gonna do is, one day, you, as an independent journalist or reporter, will get an email saying, we've selected you as the winner.

02:05:00.000 You needed nothing to do.

02:05:01.000 We just thought you did a good job and we want you to keep doing it.

02:05:03.000 So, uh, the one thing we're waiting on right now is all the paperwork's filed.

02:05:07.000 We're just waiting for filing status to, like, be formalized.

02:05:11.000 We filed a while ago.

02:05:12.000 Love it.

02:05:12.000 That's great.

02:05:12.000 But, um, there are a lot of people who are interested in helping fund the project, and I'm just like, cool.

02:05:18.000 We will see a journalist who's on the ground, and we're gonna have an award ceremony, and we'll explain why we chose this person, and we'll probably end up picking people who won't like us.

02:05:28.000 They're going to be like, I'm not coming.

02:05:29.000 I'm glad we thought you did a good job.

02:05:30.000 So you deserve it.

02:05:31.000 But, uh, yeah, anyway, uh, Carrie, do you want to shout anything out?

02:05:35.000 Oh yeah.

02:05:36.000 Uh, womensbillofrights.com. 0.99

02:05:38.000 And then I also started a sub stack, uh, and it's carriesheffield.substack.com.

02:05:43.000 Very cool.

02:05:45.000 I don't really have anything to promote.

02:05:50.000 If you guys want to go over to my YouTube channel, Freedom Tunes, we make cartoons.

02:05:54.000 I think you guys will enjoy them.

02:05:55.000 We also have a website we just launched, freedomtunes.com.

02:05:58.000 If you subscribe and become a member, five bucks a month, you'll get extra cartoons.

02:06:01.000 You'll also be supporting independent content.

02:06:03.000 That goes against what the establishment wants you to believe.

02:06:06.000 Very cool.

02:06:06.000 I might have to go check out what's going on on this crazy weird new website that James keeps pushing for some reason.

02:06:13.000 You guys may follow me on Twitter at Minds.com at SourPatchlets as well as SourPatchlets.me.

02:06:18.000 We will see all of you over at TimCast.com.

02:06:21.000 Thanks for hanging out.
