Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Democrat Infanticide Position Escalating Calls For Civil War w- Kurt Schlichter

00:00:00.000 you you

00:00:45.000 you so pro-abortion house oversight committee witnesses refused

00:01:10.000 to denounce infanticide in what may be one of the weirdest hearings I've

00:01:14.000 ever seen.

00:01:15.000 They were just outright asked, like, how do you feel about it?

00:01:18.000 And they're like, I'm not answering that.

00:01:19.000 I refuse.

00:01:19.000 I refuse the premise.

00:01:20.000 Women are allowed to get abortions. 0.99

00:01:22.000 And it's like, okay, hold on a minute.

00:01:24.000 Like, it's not hard just to say no to this.

00:01:26.000 And apparently there were three witnesses that rejected this.

00:01:30.000 And so what's freaking me out here is now we got Matt Walsh, good friend Matt Walsh.

00:01:35.000 He's posted the coming civil war is going to be weird and that he can't live with these people.

00:01:40.000 He doesn't care. 0.95

00:01:41.000 He hates them. 0.95

00:01:41.000 They hate him. 0.95

00:01:43.000 We can't live this way.

00:01:44.000 And this rhetoric isn't just coming from, say, Matt Walsh.

00:01:48.000 It's just he's trending on Twitter right now because of it.

00:01:51.000 We have an article from, I believe it's Salon, saying that Donald Trump must be charged with treason.

00:01:56.000 We have, uh, I published an op-ed in Newsweek today addressing the smears and the lies from the January 6th committee about me.

00:02:04.000 And all of this just says to me, you know, Matt Walsh is right.

00:02:08.000 I don't understand how, and you've heard me say it a million times, how we can move forward as a country when you have people who outright will not just plainly say like, oh yeah, infanticide is bad, come on.

00:02:20.000 I think one witness did and three were like, I'm not answering that question.

00:02:23.000 Why not?

00:02:24.000 That's how divergent our worldviews are.

00:02:27.000 We have that other clip with Josh Hawley, where the professor outright refuses to say whether it's a women's rights issue on abortion, and then talks about men getting pregnant, and there is just a divergent worldview that neither will accept.

00:02:40.000 Now you've got 80 or so Democrats calling for Joe Biden to declare a health emergency, effectively to bypass state rulings on this.

00:02:49.000 This country is on the verge of something truly crazy, and I'm not the only person who noticed that abortion is a strong moral issue, not unlike slavery, that could be a catalyst for something substantially worse than the crisis we're seeing now.

00:03:03.000 Maybe a civil war?

00:03:03.000 I don't know.

00:03:04.000 But when people just across the political space are outright saying yes to this, on both sides?

00:03:10.000 All right, well, I don't know what to tell you other than something crazy is gonna be happening, so we'll talk about that.

00:03:14.000 Plus, you add on all of those challenges, With a food shortage?

00:03:20.000 With hyperinflation?

00:03:22.000 You've got a recipe for very serious disaster.

00:03:25.000 So we're gonna talk all about that.

00:03:26.000 Before we get started, head over, my friends, to eatrightandfeelwell.com to pick up your Biotrust Keto Elevate.

00:05:43.000 Hey, Tim!

00:05:43.000 Thanks for having me.

00:05:44.000 Who are you?

00:05:46.000 What are you doing in my studio?

00:05:48.000 What are you doing in my studio?

00:05:49.000 I know.

00:05:50.000 Who is this weird guy?

00:05:51.000 I am a noted Los Angeles trial lawyer.

00:05:55.000 I am a senior columnist at Townhall.com.

00:05:57.000 I'm a retired United States Army infantry colonel.

00:05:59.000 I want to emphasize I was not a judge advocate.

00:06:02.000 And I am the author of a new book, which is conveniently placed behind me and discusses

00:06:07.000 many of the topics that you've mentioned tonight, including national divorce, the possibility

00:06:11.000 of civil conflict, and what we do about it.

00:06:15.000 We also got Libby. 1.00

00:06:17.000 She's back.

00:06:18.000 Hey, I'm back.

00:06:19.000 Super exciting.

00:06:21.000 Libby Emmons, editor of Post Millennial.

00:06:23.000 Oh, hello.

00:06:24.000 Also, I'm Ian Crosland.

00:06:26.000 Good to see you, everyone.

00:06:27.000 Good to see you, Kurt.

00:06:28.000 Hey! 0.99

00:06:28.000 Looking forward to hearing more about your book, because I've been thinking this is like every day we talk about this almost. 0.99

00:06:33.000 I mean, if it wasn't for the economy, I don't think that the moral stuff would be such a big issue.

00:06:38.000 But because of this inflation, I'm concerned.

00:06:42.000 Smirks of Weimar, Germany. 1.00

00:06:44.000 I'm getting this 1928 vibe.

00:06:46.000 It's, well, let's see, we've got hyperinflation, political chaos, bizarre perversions normalized.

00:06:52.000 Yeah, I think you got a good, I think we ought to be on the lookout.

00:06:58.000 I don't think that's crazy talk.

00:06:59.000 Should we do an emergency food promo while we're at it?

00:07:02.000 No, no, probably not.

00:07:03.000 I think we're good on that count.

00:07:04.000 I'm excited to be back.

00:07:05.000 We love to have Kurt on.

00:07:06.000 We're going to keep it kind of low key this evening.

00:07:08.000 Love to have Libby back as always.

00:07:10.000 I'm excited to talk about that this evening.

00:07:13.000 Right on, let's jump into this first story.

00:07:14.000 We have this tweet from the Washington Free Beacon.

00:07:18.000 A pro-abortion house oversight witness refuses to say if she agrees with infanticide.

00:07:23.000 Rep Norman, quote, do you support infanticide, killing a child after he is born?

00:07:27.000 Witness, I do not agree with the basis of that question, but I do believe that abortion is healthcare.

00:07:32.000 I'll play you the clip, but I want to show you this.

00:07:34.000 You scroll down.

00:07:35.000 A second witness refuses to say if she agrees with infanticide.

00:07:39.000 We don't have infanticide happening. 0.96

00:07:41.000 What I think is, based on your question, you have very low opinion of pregnant people.

00:07:44.000 Pregnant people? 0.95

00:07:45.000 A third pro-abortion witness refuses to say if she agrees with infanticide.

00:07:50.000 Could you answer that yes or no?

00:07:52.000 How you just characterized the representative's statement is extremely inflammatory.

00:07:58.000 Let me tell you something.

00:07:58.000 We had this progressive on, and he kept saying that late-term abortion doesn't happen.

00:08:02.000 Late-term abortion doesn't happen. 1.00

00:08:04.000 And I said, okay, I don't care.

00:08:05.000 I'm asking you why Democrats tried to legalize that recently.

00:08:09.000 Joe Manchin is the reason that didn't go through.

00:08:11.000 And he just says, but it doesn't happen.

00:08:12.000 Okay, bro, maybe it doesn't happen because it's illegal.

00:08:15.000 Maybe it's not allowed to happen.

00:08:17.000 Is that the point?

00:08:19.000 And if Democrats legalize it, it will happen?

00:08:21.000 Let me play this clip for you, because I want to talk about how insane things are getting.

00:08:26.000 I assume you agree with infanticide, the killing of a child, a perfectly healthy child at birth?

00:08:34.000 I don't accept the basis of that question, but I do believe abortion is healthcare.

00:08:38.000 I'm talking about, do you agree, I know, I get that, but do you agree, I mean, are you in, do you support infanticide, killing a child after he's born?

00:08:47.000 I do not agree with the basis of that question, but I do believe that abortion is healthcare.

00:08:54.000 Why is it so difficult just be like, yeah, we shouldn't kill babies that are born?

00:08:57.000 Okay, next question.

00:08:58.000 Are these people considered witnesses right now?

00:09:02.000 They are witnesses.

00:09:03.000 I'm not sure they're sworn.

00:09:04.000 Are they allowed to be treated hostily?

00:09:06.000 Of course.

00:09:07.000 Then why don't they say, I'm going to treat this person hostile.

00:09:11.000 You mean cross examine them?

00:09:13.000 He's trying to. They look, they've obviously been highly prepared. Look, when I get a witness on a

00:09:18.000 stand, they're highly prepared. I usually, you know, I always have a jury there, right?

00:09:21.000 So juries seeing things. There's no jury here. This is all political propaganda. And what they

00:09:27.000 want to do is avoid making any concession to normal people about the normal idea

00:09:34.000 that you don't kill babies. Okay.

00:09:37.000 Not a radical notion, but they can't say that. 0.90

00:09:39.000 They don't want a clip of one of them out there going, you know, I think you'd be wrong if you killed a baby.

00:09:44.000 The other part of it, too, is they would have to, if they wanted to say that infanticide was wrong, right?

00:09:49.000 The next question would be, at what point in birth, at what age does the, you know, infant have to be during the gestation process for it to be infanticide?

00:09:59.000 So that's part of the issue.

00:10:00.000 We've had these conversations with people on this show.

00:10:02.000 And they just refuse to answer and there's no answer.

00:10:07.000 And I've asked, we had a progressive, and I said, okay, there's two women. 0.96

00:10:10.000 They got pregnant the exact same time.

00:10:12.000 The babies have gestated for the exact same amount of time.

00:10:15.000 Eight and a half months.

00:10:16.000 One woman gets a c-section. 1.00

00:10:18.000 The baby is pulled from her womb.

00:10:20.000 The other one does not.

00:10:22.000 Can you abort the baby in the womb? 0.83

00:10:24.000 They say yes.

00:10:25.000 They're like, well, yeah, it's a woman's choice. 0.99

00:10:27.000 It's a woman's choice. 0.95

00:10:28.000 What about the baby who's born?

00:10:29.000 No, that would be wrong.

00:10:29.000 And I'm like, okay, wait, what?

00:10:31.000 Why?

00:10:31.000 Well, that's a big concession.

00:10:32.000 That's exactly what they didn't want to answer in the house today.

00:10:36.000 They don't want to have to say what abortion actually is, which is killing a baby. 1.00

00:10:41.000 They don't want us to call it murder.

00:10:42.000 They just don't want to say it.

00:10:43.000 I have a lot more respect for people who say, you know, I'm in favor of abortion and abortion is murder.

00:10:48.000 Because at least that's totally honest.

00:10:50.000 That's honest and direct.

00:10:51.000 I don't know if I have respect for them.

00:10:53.000 It's at least honesty.

00:10:55.000 You're a terrible, terrible human being but you're at least not lying to me about that particular thing. 0.98

00:11:00.000 And you're not lying to yourself. 0.99

00:11:02.000 These people are lying to themselves.

00:11:04.000 I think that's wrong because they don't believe any of it.

00:11:06.000 She knows what infanticide is. 0.99

00:11:08.000 She knows what a woman is. 1.00

00:11:10.000 But do you know why they refuse to answer?

00:11:12.000 Because they will be attacked by the left.

00:11:14.000 Oh yeah.

00:11:15.000 Because the goalposts move so rapidly on the left that their allegiance is to the cult and not to any morals.

00:11:23.000 So they're probably sitting there thinking like, if I say I oppose this and then in a week we're in favor of it, I'm gonna get canceled.

00:11:30.000 So I better not say anything other than whatever the approved line is.

00:11:33.000 And there is no cohesive value system, so there's nothing to base these judgments on.

00:11:37.000 It's what needs to be said.

00:11:38.000 Look, the left could just as easily have been radically pro-life if that was to their advantage.

00:11:46.000 They could be saying, we are not going to allow you to murder young babies, future Democrat welfare recipients. 0.58

00:11:52.000 We are not allowing that.

00:11:54.000 That's horrible.

00:11:54.000 That's a human life.

00:11:56.000 But they don't have kids.

00:11:59.000 Well, there are reasons why they chose to go that way, but don't, I mean, the idea that some sort of moral choice of theirs, they would have gone the other way if it was useful to their agenda.

00:12:11.000 And has been in some countries.

00:12:13.000 Maybe, maybe, but I think it's useful to their agenda, not in the way you're saying.

00:12:19.000 It's useful to their agenda because they don't like people, because they want to reduce the amount of people.

00:12:23.000 Well, that's true.

00:12:24.000 This is the funny thing.

00:12:25.000 There's a meme.

00:12:26.000 You are the carbon they are trying to reduce.

00:12:29.000 But hold on.

00:12:30.000 Bill Gates literally wrote that, I think it was in Reuters in 2018, saying poverty is expanding because poor people are having kids and we need to give them birth control to stop this.

00:12:41.000 And I'm like, they're quite literally saying less people because it's causing climate change.

00:12:46.000 So these Democrats don't want people.

00:12:48.000 The problem is when they are more likely to sterilize their kids, more likely to abort their kids, And conservatives are not.

00:12:57.000 The future is conservative.

00:12:59.000 It's just a simple mathematical equation.

00:13:00.000 You're right about that.

00:13:03.000 And I think if you watch this, they are conceding that normal people will find their beliefs repellent.

00:13:10.000 Now, even 30 years ago, when you had Bill Clinton, and you had people thinking, well, safe, legal, and rare, which was a brilliant formulation.

00:13:23.000 Gently pro-life people could go, well, you know, at least he's thrown an olive branch.

00:13:26.000 At least he says, you know, we all agree that this is a disfavored thing.

00:13:31.000 I had a leftist friend go, Kurt, no one is for abortion.

00:13:34.000 Well, we now know that's untrue.

00:13:37.000 Can you show them the Lena Dunham quote where she said she wished she had an abortion?

00:13:41.000 She doesn't have a child. 0.99

00:13:43.000 She just wanted to kill one. 0.97

00:13:44.000 And there was also there was a Lindy West right who came out with that book pro and it was like we are pro abortion that's what we need to start going with now. 0.61

00:13:53.000 But these people when they're doing politics not in their own personal echo chamber they are trying desperately not to show normal people what they really think because you go out to a normal person And one who may be a little bit kind of, well, you know, she's gotten in trouble.

00:14:08.000 It's the first few weeks.

00:14:10.000 I can deal with that.

00:14:11.000 But you go, yeah, you can abort this kid pretty much until he gets his driver's license.

00:14:17.000 And they're just going, what is wrong with you?

00:14:20.000 No normal human being says eight and a half, eight months, three weeks, and go ahead and abort.

00:14:27.000 No normal person.

00:14:27.000 They're like, what are you talking about?

00:14:29.000 That's crazy.

00:14:29.000 That's way past the point of viability.

00:14:31.000 Well, it's insane.

00:14:32.000 Yes, it's insane.

00:14:33.000 But their logic, I think it was Vosch.

00:14:41.000 And I think it was on this show, he was asked, I think it was when we had Charlie Kirk and Vosch on, when does life begin?

00:14:47.000 And Vosch said, sometime after birth.

00:14:49.000 Yeah, I think so.

00:14:49.000 Right, that's insane.

00:14:50.000 Noted theologian boss.

00:14:51.000 That sounds like a misspeak if he said that.

00:14:54.000 No, it's not.

00:14:54.000 Because you're obviously alive when you're born.

00:14:56.000 No, they genuinely, there have been arguments from more extreme pro-abortion individuals that memories don't form until three months after you're born.

00:15:04.000 Oh, it's now memories.

00:15:06.000 So you need to have memories in order to be alive.

00:15:09.000 Well, I want to clarify that because these are the same people who insist we eat bugs so we don't slaughter cattle and pigs.

00:15:14.000 Are pigs and cattle alive?

00:15:16.000 And so why?

00:15:17.000 It's not about that.

00:15:18.000 It's about climate change.

00:15:19.000 Well, it's about power.

00:15:22.000 They're not saying to eat crickets because they want to save the animals.

00:15:25.000 I mean, some people are.

00:15:26.000 They're saying cows fart too much.

00:15:28.000 Like AOC put out that thing where it was like, farting cows!

00:15:30.000 So they put crickets in your food.

00:15:32.000 But of course, the real reason they want us to eat bugs is because it's degrading, humiliating, and we enjoy eating beef.

00:15:37.000 And that we are peasants and we need to suffer.

00:15:39.000 I disagree.

00:15:40.000 I disagree.

00:15:40.000 I think it's actually much, much simpler than that.

00:15:42.000 Crickets are cheap.

00:15:43.000 Crickets are cheap, and if you can start a cricket company... They're not that cheap!

00:15:46.000 I used to buy crickets for my Euromastix lizards. 0.99

00:15:48.000 Damn things cost a lot. 0.98

00:15:50.000 They'll be cheaper once they're mass-produced. 0.99

00:15:52.000 Do you know how long it takes to raise beef cattle?

00:15:55.000 It takes a while.

00:15:55.000 A couple years.

00:15:56.000 I was talking to the farmer and I said, you get all this beef, they got tenderloin and stuff, it's amazing, I love it.

00:16:00.000 And I said, how long from the cow being born until they're ready to be chopped up?

00:16:05.000 And they're like, two years.

00:16:06.000 A cricket is like a week.

00:16:08.000 And so you get a big vet, you mass-produce garbage, cheap protein crickets, and here's what happens.

00:16:14.000 You're like, not only is it cheap to make, but it's easy to pulverize, produce this food.

00:16:21.000 Now you need to convince people to buy it.

00:16:24.000 It's cheap to make, and there's an opportunity to invest.

00:16:27.000 So people like Bill Gates, these other people, I don't know if he's doing this, but they invest in cricket production, and then they start dumping money into news programs being like, oh, you gotta eat the crickets!

00:16:37.000 Everybody's gotta eat bugs!

00:16:38.000 Their companies start doing better and better and better.

00:16:40.000 And then they put out videos of Nicole Kidman eating bugs, and everybody loves it.

00:16:44.000 Yeah, what did you call it?

00:16:46.000 Gawk.

00:16:47.000 After Tom Cruise, it's the second weirdest thing she's eaten.

00:16:52.000 Look, no, I think we're overlooking Remember, Marxism, this whole leftist woke thing, is really a psychodrama and it's about their feels.

00:17:03.000 There is a certain joy in compelling other people to do degrading things, and it is degrading to eat bugs.

00:17:10.000 Steak is the food of a citizen, of a proud male or female, a proud human being.

00:17:19.000 And bugs are what you give to servants and serfs. 1.00

00:17:22.000 And they get off on that.

00:17:23.000 You know what I love?

00:17:24.000 There was like a post where someone said, 80% of the world eats bugs.

00:17:28.000 No!

00:17:28.000 And then it showed, well, it showed people eating bugs.

00:17:31.000 And then someone responded with like, the reason they eat bugs is because they're poor.

00:17:35.000 Well, yeah.

00:17:35.000 Like, to the extent that we're not, you're not saying they do it because they're proud to do it.

00:17:40.000 They're doing it because they have no choice.

00:17:41.000 To the extent that they're slurping up millipedes like the dogs in Lady and the Tramp.

00:17:47.000 I'm sorry.

00:17:48.000 Cricket does not taste good.

00:17:49.000 No!

00:17:50.000 We had cricket.

00:17:50.000 It's not good.

00:17:52.000 It's nobody's first choice.

00:17:53.000 The first choice of any human being is a delicious grilled ribeye.

00:17:57.000 Tenderloin.

00:18:00.000 I would say pasta.

00:18:03.000 Carbs! 0.95

00:18:04.000 Glutens!

00:18:04.000 Every time.

00:18:05.000 Every time.

00:18:07.000 Be gone with ye.

00:18:08.000 I had a filet bouillonnaise on some pasta last night.

00:18:13.000 And let me tell you, I needed a cigarette and a cuddle after.

00:18:18.000 Kurt, you said that the left could easily have just been You know what I think it is?

00:18:22.000 but they've been useful to them.

00:18:24.000 Does it, do you think that this iteration of the left, meaning, I don't know what, how you would define it exactly,

00:18:28.000 is it like a communist radical attempt at an overthrow of the current state of governance?

00:18:33.000 I think it, you know what I think it is? I think it is a bunch of perpetual Wellesley sophomores

00:18:41.000 living out their daddy psychodrama issues and the guys who are trying to have sex with them. 0.99

00:18:46.000 And I think that that is really the essence. I think it is a, I think they are, 0.74

00:18:52.000 there is a space in everybody to be filled with some sort of spirituality.

00:18:56.000 You know, maybe you are a Christian, maybe you are an Orthodox Jew,

00:19:00.000 maybe you are just kind of spiritual in general, maybe you have some sort of rational belief

00:19:05.000 Yes.

00:19:05.000 system which doesn't involve a guy, but you fill it with something that's not crazy.

00:19:09.000 But if you don't fill it with something that's not crazy, it gets filled with something that's

00:19:13.000 crazy.

00:19:14.000 That's why these guys have this religious mindset, complete with heretics, us, we're 0.99

00:19:19.000 all heretics, they'd happily burn us, and sacraments like abortion. 0.99

00:19:23.000 But this is why apostates are so bad and heavily targeted, people who are like, they really 1.00

00:19:28.000 don't like people who were woke and then walk away.

00:19:31.000 Look, you were associated with the left, and they hate you.

00:19:36.000 So Prager, you had that Dave Rubin thing, why I left the left, and then I told him,

00:19:42.000 I was like, you gotta make a video called How the Left Left Me.

00:19:45.000 And I was like, because my position stayed basically the same.

00:19:47.000 It's like that Elon Musk meme that was actually a Colin Wright meme, showing how the left

00:19:50.000 has just continually gone insane.

00:19:53.000 And the infanticide abortion thing is the perfect example. 0.99

00:19:56.000 A year ago they were like, it's not happening, you're crazy.

00:19:59.000 Now they're like, I'm not answering that question, I refuse.

00:20:02.000 Like we are inching towards them to where they get to the point where they're gonna be like,

00:20:06.000 well, you call it infanticide, but if the child is malformed or has some mental issue.

00:20:13.000 Or inconvenient.

00:20:15.000 You know what's crazy to me?

00:20:16.000 There's a meme, I see these leftist posts, and it shows like a slum house covered in graffiti

00:20:22.000 and a child sleeping on a scuzzy mattress.

00:20:24.000 And it said, just because he was born mean he was saved. And I was like, are you advocating for

00:20:30.000 killing that child? Like it's all, it's Are you saying it shouldn't be alive? 0.99

00:20:32.000 That's brutal.

00:20:33.000 This is the thing they always say, right?

00:20:34.000 It's like, oh, you only care for children before they're born, but if you would care for them afterwards, we wouldn't have to abort them.

00:20:40.000 And it's like, what are you talking about? 1.00

00:20:42.000 I have to kill him. 1.00

00:20:43.000 You don't care? 1.00

00:20:43.000 You don't care. 1.00

00:20:44.000 Well, you know, it may be a little rude to our leftist friends, but you know, Marxists murdered 100 million people in the last century.

00:20:50.000 That's inconvenient.

00:20:51.000 Those are inconvenient facts.

00:20:52.000 They're just Cambodians, right? 1.00

00:20:54.000 I love this, there's a meme from Existential Comics, or Existentialist Comics that I see posted all the time, and it's like, it says something dumb, it's like, we're made to believe that communism is bad because a famine happened once.

00:21:06.000 And I'm like, yo, once?

00:21:08.000 How about every time?

00:21:09.000 100 million dead? 0.99

00:21:12.000 Man, these people are absolutely insane.

00:21:13.000 But let's get to the escalation of this by throwing it to our good friend, Matt Walsh. 0.53

00:21:18.000 Matt Walsh tweeted, These hearings on abortion are instructive.

00:21:22.000 The liberal witnesses have refused to condemn infanticide, refused to define the word woman, and claimed that men can get pregnant.

00:21:30.000 We cannot share a country with these people.

00:21:32.000 There can be no unity. 1.00

00:21:33.000 They are lunatics and monsters. 1.00

00:21:35.000 I don't respect them. 1.00

00:21:36.000 I have nothing in common with them.

00:21:37.000 I detest everything they believe and stand for.

00:21:40.000 They feel the same about me.

00:21:41.000 We simply cannot go on this way.

00:21:43.000 Matt previously had tweeted, So it may be a bit silly.

00:21:54.000 A lot of people keep denying the reality of what's happening in this country.

00:21:58.000 But I don't think Matt's wrong when he says he detests them.

00:22:02.000 I certainly believe he does.

00:22:04.000 But they feel the same way about him.

00:22:05.000 They certainly do.

00:22:07.000 So at a certain point we are inching towards what many people refer to as, at the very least, peaceful divorce.

00:22:13.000 Peaceful, peaceful divorce.

00:22:14.000 I have a chapter of that in my book right there.

00:22:17.000 We'll be back Fall and Rise of America.

00:22:18.000 I have to mention it like every time because otherwise Regnery will keep my family hostage.

00:22:25.000 So, real quick, I want to ask you about that.

00:22:28.000 We talked about this a while back, that abortion could be the moral catalyst, like slavery was.

00:22:34.000 Some people might not think so, maybe, maybe not.

00:22:37.000 It could be a combination of things.

00:22:39.000 I think it's possible that we're in the Bleeding Kansas phase of Civil War.

00:22:44.000 Not quite.

00:22:45.000 We're not shooting yet, but I do talk about Bleeding Kansas. 0.95

00:22:47.000 Aaron Danielson was shot twice in the chest in Portland.

00:22:49.000 That's true.

00:22:50.000 Not in a systemic way.

00:22:52.000 I don't agree.

00:22:54.000 I think the issue is when you look back at Bleeding Kansas, this was an era where we didn't have the kind of communications or technology we had.

00:23:02.000 So people are more tactful in their strategies for warfare.

00:23:06.000 Which is, they're trying to manipulate people to gain public power and access to resources, and direct violence doesn't work as effectively, or it's not effective at all these days, in most circumstances.

00:23:18.000 So when you look at the past several years, when you look at the 529 insurrection, when leftists broke the barricades down in front of the White House, set fire to St.

00:23:26.000 John's Church, torched the guard post, and forced the president into a bunker, and then the media defended it.

00:23:32.000 I pulled up an article from 529, this was mind-blowing.

00:23:35.000 And it said that the Democrats wanted an inquiry on the police actions.

00:23:39.000 That's right.

00:23:39.000 After the left firebombed a church and a guard post and the president was forced in the bunker, the Democrats were like, we need to know what the police were doing.

00:23:46.000 Well, and they did do that investigation.

00:23:48.000 Right.

00:23:49.000 Yeah.

00:23:50.000 And then you get January 6, which is all of a sudden now it's the apocalypse.

00:23:56.000 I feel that, look, for those that don't know, Bleeding Kansas was a territorial, it was Kansas, there was a civil war effectively within the state over whether or not it would be a slave state, and it never stopped.

00:24:07.000 Bleeding Kansas didn't end, the civil war just started.

00:24:09.000 No, no, Bleeding Kansas, I talk about in there, was essentially dispersed, decentralized cavalry units raiding various civilian outposts, and there were a large number of deaths.

00:24:20.000 Look, you are right that the predicate condition does exist. That is people in significant numbers 0.99

00:24:30.000 accepting the use of intimidation and violence to affect political change. And

00:24:35.000 we see that even we even saw it this week with you know I'm going to go get in

00:24:39.000 getting Kavanaugh's face as he's eating a ribeye because ribeye is of course

00:24:43.000 fantastic during its underlying.

00:24:45.000 And they get in his face.

00:24:47.000 Now, if you get in someone's face, you're not persuading him.

00:24:51.000 You're trying to force him to go your way.

00:24:53.000 You have left politics.

00:24:55.000 You have left persuasion.

00:24:56.000 You've left, you know, the system.

00:25:00.000 You're now using intimidation.

00:25:01.000 So if you get in his face, where is the moral guardrail that keeps you from slapping his face to make him do it?

00:25:08.000 And if that doesn't work, where is the guardrail that keeps you from shooting him in the face? 0.77

00:25:13.000 So you are- There was an assassin.

00:25:15.000 And there was.

00:25:16.000 There was.

00:25:16.000 So you are correct that there are a significant number who are accepting the premise that you can use violence to affect change.

00:25:22.000 Keep in mind, 50 years ago, we had a low-grade urban insurgency. 0.93

00:25:26.000 We had the Weather Underground, Bly Panthers, Symbionese Liberation Army, DEATH TO THE FASCIST INSECT!

00:25:33.000 Greatest, greatest tagline for a revolutionary group ever.

00:25:36.000 Um, and it was treated as a law enforcement matter.

00:25:39.000 But there were bombings all over the place.

00:25:41.000 Read Days of Rage.

00:25:42.000 Bombings all over the place.

00:25:43.000 A large number of killings.

00:25:44.000 It was suppressed through law enforcement.

00:25:46.000 But that was a very low-grade type of insurgency.

00:25:49.000 When I talk about civil war, and I discuss, I have two chapters, I discuss red against a blue government, blue against a red people, or a red government.

00:26:01.000 You know, there is a spectrum of conflict.

00:26:03.000 But you are correct about the predicate, which is people accepting the idea that violence is an acceptable means to affect political change.

00:26:11.000 And unfortunately, there are a number of people on the left who do that.

00:26:16.000 I don't know how great that number is.

00:26:19.000 Doesn't matter?

00:26:20.000 It does matter, because if it starts getting 40-50%, then you've got a real problem.

00:26:26.000 How many people fought in the Civil War?

00:26:28.000 See, that's when it becomes 40, 50, 60, 70, 80 percent.

00:26:32.000 10 percent.

00:26:33.000 Yes, but the people supported them.

00:26:35.000 Who would fight, though, in our situation?

00:26:36.000 Like, who would be out there fighting?

00:26:38.000 So the question is, like, the Patriot Front versus Antifa?

00:26:42.000 That's Bleeding Kansas level.

00:26:43.000 That is Bleeding Kansas, and that is one of the things.

00:26:46.000 Small, informal militias battling it out.

00:26:49.000 What's the government do?

00:26:51.000 Does the government send in the CAF?

00:26:52.000 Yeah, we haven't seen that.

00:26:53.000 But not in large... We did see it in... It does exist in bits and pieces, but it's not systemic.

00:27:00.000 We had rioting in Portland for 120 days.

00:27:02.000 Yes.

00:27:03.000 Firebombing federal buildings.

00:27:04.000 Yes, correct.

00:27:05.000 We had since... when did it start?

00:27:08.000 2017?

00:27:08.000 Oh, yeah.

00:27:09.000 The battle for Berkeley.

00:27:10.000 Right, right, right.

00:27:11.000 The CHAZ in multiple cities.

00:27:14.000 Even until recently, you had the autonomous zone in Minneapolis.

00:27:18.000 Look, People were shot and killed.

00:27:20.000 They lit up a white SUV with like hundreds of rounds of 5.56, because teenagers were in it, and they heard a fake report on the radio from cops that white supremacists were going to come and attack them.

00:27:31.000 Look, there are... the conditions are...

00:27:38.000 I don't think they're separate.

00:27:40.000 In Provo, Utah, a BLM supporter ran up to a car and shot a driver for no reason.

00:27:48.000 These things keep happening.

00:27:50.000 They exist, but they're not systemic fighting of the kind that we saw in bleeding cancers, but they could become it.

00:27:58.000 And right now they're in urban environments where you have a unique set of conditions.

00:28:04.000 You always have a DA who won't prosecute.

00:28:06.000 You always have a weak government.

00:28:08.000 You always have a police force that is unwilling or unable to take action.

00:28:15.000 And interestingly, even when they were talking about sending in military forces, and I was part of the military force that suppressed the LA riots.

00:28:22.000 So I have seen this in operation.

00:28:24.000 I've seen it happen.

00:28:26.000 I was part of it.

00:28:28.000 You have governors who simply will not cooperate with that.

00:28:34.000 That's where it starts to get crazy.

00:28:35.000 It does start to get crazy.

00:28:37.000 We haven't got there yet.

00:28:40.000 My contention is we could get there.

00:28:43.000 I'd like to take the off-ramp and not get there.

00:28:45.000 What's the off-ramp?

00:28:46.000 Yeah, what is that?

00:28:47.000 Well, look, the obvious off-ramp is to convince a critical mass of Americans to go back to essentially the rule of law and the Constitution.

00:28:58.000 But can we do that?

00:28:59.000 And they disagree with the premise of the Constitution.

00:29:01.000 Well, how many do?

00:29:03.000 We're going to find out!

00:29:05.000 They talk about this all in school, right?

00:29:07.000 Because Thomas Jefferson was a slaveholder and so we have to disrupt the entire foundation of society. 0.95

00:29:12.000 And they want to increase the number of people who have this disgusting Marxist critique of the Constitution.

00:29:19.000 And if they succeed, yeah, we're gonna have a real problem.

00:29:22.000 And those people all get book deals.

00:29:24.000 What's his name, like Ellie Mistal?

00:29:26.000 Who's gonna read Ellie Mistal's book?

00:29:28.000 He's all over MSNBC!

00:29:31.000 Who watches MSNBC? 1.00

00:29:33.000 Weirdos, Losers, and Mutations. 0.96

00:29:35.000 No, but these are the people who you're saying we're going to be fighting, right? 0.99

00:29:40.000 The people who watch MSNBC.

00:29:42.000 MSNBC's ratings are like 100k.

00:29:44.000 It's like really abysmal.

00:29:45.000 And then it's like people in their 60s.

00:29:47.000 So yesterday, I pulled up an article explaining the sentiment for union support for the Civil War.

00:29:53.000 And you know what the view was, at least according to this historical reference?

00:29:58.000 The view was the union thought the confederacy had been taken over by a conspiracy of elites

00:30:04.000 that were subverting the constitutional rights of the people and that they had to free these states

00:30:09.000 from an elite conspiracy. They believed that these elites were denying personhood rights.

00:30:16.000 And I said, oh, that sounds like something a Trump supporter would say about today,

00:30:22.000 that Democrats are subverting the constitution, locking down churches,

00:30:26.000 that they're denying personhood to babies.

00:30:28.000 I was like, it's not one for one, but there's a parallel.

00:30:31.000 The reason why I say bleeding Kansas phase is not to claim that literally bleeding Kansas is happening one for one, like it's identical.

00:30:38.000 It's that we're in the escalation of conflict pre-Civil War, which eventually, it's the violence that occurs before a formal Civil War.

00:30:46.000 And the reason why I say that, for one, everything we've already said, but my point is, we can't expect everything happening now to be identical to what happened back then for a variety of reasons.

00:30:57.000 I mean, technology is one.

00:30:58.000 The other issue is that we are not arguing over which states will enter the union and support a cause.

00:31:03.000 We're talking about which states already do actively support abortion to the point of birth or even after birth, like Virginia tried to do with Northam.

00:31:13.000 Those states are already ideologically in those camps.

00:31:16.000 So it's looking more like a Spanish Civil War or maybe akin to... No, it's ideological.

00:31:22.000 It's not geographic.

00:31:24.000 So you've got phalangists against leftists.

00:31:26.000 It's becoming geographic.

00:31:27.000 Although I don't see us as phalangists.

00:31:29.000 It's becoming geographic.

00:31:31.000 Take a look at Minneapolis.

00:31:33.000 So we talked about this the other day.

00:31:34.000 There's a video you may have seen of the fat old dude in tighty-whities twerking in front of the little girl.

00:31:40.000 And a woman walks up to the little girl and waves, and motions the little girl, and the little girl waves.

00:31:45.000 That happened in public.

00:31:46.000 In full view of parents, they wanted the little girl to engage with it.

00:31:51.000 But I guarantee you, if I give that video, if I took it and I went to an advertising agency and said, I want this, it's a pride event in public with families and kids, it's wholesome, nobody's nude, they're all fully clothed, and I want it on a billboard in Times Square, they would say, get out of this building, this is disgusting, what are you doing?

00:32:09.000 But why is it then that it would be allowed in public in these cities?

00:32:14.000 Where are the people like us that would say that's bad to actually be on the ground in those places to tell them to stop?

00:32:20.000 Why is it that Libs of TikTok posted this video? 0.58

00:32:23.000 A father said, I'm going to read for you this book.

00:32:26.000 And the guy said, you can't read that.

00:32:28.000 It's illegal.

00:32:29.000 And he said, but it's in our schools.

00:32:31.000 Why is it that these things are being allowed to happen?

00:32:34.000 It's because the culture in these places has moved to a degree where they accept these things regardless of law.

00:32:42.000 When the law stops being enforced, and that's what we're seeing, then eventually you'll see similar arguments we saw in the Civil War, which is, why are we party to a country in which the law is only enforced against us, but never against those who wrong us?

00:32:59.000 Look, you are absolutely correct.

00:33:00.000 You're talking about the predicate conditions for civil conflict.

00:33:04.000 And one of them is a dual-track justice system, which we are seeing in space.

00:33:08.000 I mean, look at the J6 people. 1.00

00:33:11.000 That's just, you know, guys sitting in there in jail for a year and a half.

00:33:17.000 Where's their speedy trial for their misdemeanors?

00:33:20.000 And it is unsustainable.

00:33:22.000 Now, how are we going to solve it?

00:33:25.000 Well, one way to solve it is political action.

00:33:27.000 We either have courts that stand up and do the right thing, or we have elections where we take power back and, you know, the next president pardons all these guys.

00:33:39.000 Or we go outside the political process.

00:33:42.000 And outside the political process, which is where you've accurately pointed, the left is gone.

00:33:48.000 Well, that could be really scary.

00:33:50.000 And there is a continuum of that.

00:33:52.000 There is a continuum of civil conflict.

00:33:55.000 And it worries the hell out of me.

00:33:58.000 Because as you know, I served in Kosovo, served where there was a civil war.

00:34:02.000 We are in the ruins of it.

00:34:03.000 And I would walk through ruined villages.

00:34:06.000 And I remember one village, it looked like it was just blown down, just bombed down.

00:34:10.000 I said, wow.

00:34:10.000 I told my Muslim interpreter, man, this is horrible.

00:34:14.000 But I don't see any blast marks, any flame marks.

00:34:17.000 And he said, no, no, no.

00:34:19.000 The enemy of this town came here with crowbars and sledgehammers and literally disassembled this town into wreckage.

00:34:26.000 That was the level of hatred.

00:34:28.000 I was reading about the French Revolution.

00:34:30.000 And I was reading about Robespierre and Danton, I think you mentioned.

00:34:34.000 And the crazy thing about it is that, correct me if I'm wrong, because I think you were reading about this.

00:34:39.000 It was basically a bunch of people terrified of each other thinking, if I don't kill them, they'll kill me.

00:34:44.000 It's usually what it comes to.

00:34:45.000 I think Robespierre eventually turned on his brother in arms, which was Danton.

00:34:48.000 The two of them together sparked the revolution.

00:34:51.000 And then nobody would stand up to defend him.

00:34:54.000 There's a quote I read.

00:34:54.000 It's not about you.

00:34:55.000 It's about the revolution and Roops here was like, I'm a better speaker than you and you'll 0.99

00:34:59.000 be executed.

00:35:00.000 And then nobody would stand up to defend him.

00:35:02.000 There's a quote I read.

00:35:03.000 They said they cared less about their convictions and more about presenting their virtue.

00:35:09.000 That's like what's going on now.

00:35:10.000 They feared that if they spoke up and said, this is wrong, they would be condemned along with him.

00:35:15.000 And he was executed for it.

00:35:16.000 Danton was executed.

00:35:18.000 And that's when I was reading into this because I saw a quote from, I think it was Plato maybe, where he said something.

00:35:25.000 What's the quote?

00:35:25.000 I tweeted it.

00:35:26.000 That the penalty for refusing to be engaged is to be ruled by evil men or something to that effect.

00:35:32.000 And then I remembered the quote from Dan Tong.

00:35:35.000 What did he say?

00:35:36.000 Oh, it is better to be a fisherman than meddle in the government of men.

00:35:38.000 Or a poor farmer.

00:35:39.000 I think he said poor farmer.

00:35:40.000 Fisherman.

00:35:41.000 Fisherman, was it?

00:35:42.000 Accentuating the poor.

00:35:43.000 To be in poverty than to be meddle in the politics.

00:35:46.000 And so I was like, pick your poison.

00:35:47.000 Right.

00:35:47.000 Do nothing and be ruled by evil.

00:35:49.000 Meddle. 1.00

00:35:50.000 Get your head chopped off. 0.99

00:35:52.000 And so I started reading about Danton and Robespierre, and it really, like, I read a cursory article talking about it, and it was really very much like these disparate factions were all, it was a Mexican standoff. 0.99

00:36:02.000 They were all staring at each other like, which one is going to be the one that tries to kill us next?

00:36:06.000 So then they were like... Sounds like the Spanish Civil War on the communist side.

00:36:09.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:36:10.000 Because when they weren't fighting Franco's guys, they were killing each other.

00:36:13.000 I mean, in... Probably why Franco ended up winning, right?

00:36:16.000 Franco did.

00:36:17.000 Franco won pretty darn decisively.

00:36:19.000 Um, and that is one of the, one of the problems of the left.

00:36:24.000 You know, when they're engaged, you know, you've got to win or you die for kind of the conservative side.

00:36:31.000 They don't really want to be engaged.

00:36:33.000 So it's not, you know.

00:36:35.000 Forrest Cooper brought this up.

00:36:37.000 He said that, uh, the people who are good at violence don't want to be involved in it.

00:36:41.000 And that should tell you something.

00:36:43.000 That is true.

00:36:44.000 The guys who have seen it, who've experienced it, who are trained in it are like, please stop, please stop.

00:36:48.000 Yeah, and one of the problems with the left is, well, I mean, look at the Oval Day footage of the cops milling around.

00:37:00.000 Yeah, cops milling around for, you know, that's one untrained little mutant, 18 years old,

00:37:09.000 not tactically proficient.

00:37:10.000 He's got a weapon, but there's like 20 of them.

00:37:15.000 And they won't rush him.

00:37:17.000 What are they going to do about 400,000 guys who are trained and who are ideologically committed and who aren't 18?

00:37:24.000 Even a few thousand.

00:37:25.000 You ever tried building a house of cards?

00:37:26.000 Even five.

00:37:27.000 What would they do against five guys?

00:37:30.000 Look at what happened in Boston.

00:37:32.000 Two mutants.

00:37:33.000 Mm-hmm two little mutants. That's right Shut down Boston two guys with handguns and the occasional

00:37:39.000 pressure cooker bomb shut down Boston Have you ever tried to build a house of cards?

00:37:44.000 You know you get plenty. Yeah, sure. It's it's it's it's it's tough

00:37:49.000 It's a lot of time and energy and then someone can go Yep, a tiny tiny and the whole thing comes crumbling down

00:37:55.000 My point is it is extremely difficult to build a complex machine. It is extremely easy to disrupt one

00:38:00.000 I look at it as a Jenga tower.

00:38:03.000 You know the little game, you have little blocks.

00:38:05.000 And the leftists, first of all, you gotta understand the leftists, our ruling class, inherits this Jenga Tower.

00:38:11.000 They didn't build it.

00:38:12.000 They're cultural trust fund babies.

00:38:15.000 It was handed to them.

00:38:16.000 They got their credentials at Harvard and then they took their jobs running the institutions, which they have no particular appreciation of or even understanding of.

00:38:25.000 They just got it and they use them for their own power.

00:38:27.000 And they think they can pull out these things from the Jenga Tower because it never never occurred to them how hard it is to build that tower

00:38:35.000 and it never occurred to them that could possibly collapse. But it can. And that's been going

00:38:40.000 on for a long time. It's been going on since the 70s. There's this great play by Jules Feiffer

00:38:44.000 called Little Murders and I don't know if you know the play but everything's getting destroyed in New

00:38:50.000 York City and it's this wild story where the police are trying to figure out who there's

00:38:56.000 like a shooter.

00:38:57.000 Every time you go outside, people are getting shot.

00:38:59.000 The murders are just skyrocketing as they were in New York City and you have the police being like, this is a conspiracy to make the police look bad because we can't figure out who's killing everybody.

00:39:08.000 But one of the characters is finally just like, destroy, destroy, destroy, when are you going to find time to build?

00:39:14.000 And it's like, all of these people have taken over the institutions.

00:39:18.000 Camille Paglia talked about this as well.

00:39:20.000 She said the real Marxists went out and lived on communes, and all of the fakers ended up in the universities.

00:39:26.000 That's true.

00:39:27.000 That's absolutely true.

00:39:30.000 Do you think in the age of bug protein, they're not going to be able to get themselves a top Sterling?

00:39:36.000 I mean, they're gonna be able to do it.

00:39:38.000 Hunter Biden is always going to be able to get a top ceremony. 1.00

00:39:41.000 And a nice piece of ass. 1.00

00:39:42.000 It's always going to be vitally important that Leonardo DiCaprio fly to Davos to lecture 1.00

00:39:48.000 us on our carbon footprint.

00:39:52.000 I want to bring up this article here from Salon.

00:39:55.000 Was this finally enough?

00:39:57.000 Trump and his terrorist confederates must be prosecuted.

00:40:00.000 Trump treason is trending and our treason is trending and it's about Trump and this is one of the articles.

00:40:06.000 I don't I don't care to read the article for the most part.

00:40:08.000 It just goes through January 6th stuff.

00:40:10.000 It shows people who testified.

00:40:11.000 It says enough is enough.

00:40:12.000 We've heard this.

00:40:13.000 We know what Trump has been planning.

00:40:15.000 Trump called for supporters blah blah blah.

00:40:17.000 It doesn't matter what the sentiment is beyond.

00:40:20.000 You right now have prominent media outlets, politicians, demanding that the other side be imprisoned, prosecuted, shut down.

00:40:30.000 They're irredeemable.

00:40:33.000 I mean, we've heard deplorable, and that was a while ago, but now it's irredeemable, insurrectionists, people have been...

00:40:39.000 Christofascists. 0.98

00:40:41.000 Christofascists! 1.00

00:40:43.000 Whatever.

00:40:44.000 They're saying the other side is evil and we know it and they have to be stopped.

00:40:47.000 There's no negotiating with people who believe this.

00:40:50.000 No, you just have to beat them.

00:40:53.000 In what, elections?

00:40:56.000 Well, you can beat them in the political process.

00:40:58.000 Hopefully that's the way you do it. Look, I mean, in the book I talk a lot about ancient Rome and

00:41:03.000 there's some parallels there, you know? Instead of fighting, you know, up the course of honor to

00:41:08.000 become consul or questor or whatever, you know, it's a lot easier just to, you know, charge your

00:41:15.000 opponent with treason. Get him out of the way. Right. Chop his head off. Using the law enforcement

00:41:20.000 apparatus to go after people. And this is what the January 6th Committee is. But is it will

00:41:26.000 Republicans ever do anything? Of course they won't. I don't know. I think that, look.

00:41:32.000 When John Cornyn collaborated on the stupid gun control thing, there were 14-hour Republicans who joined him. 0.99

00:41:40.000 15 Republicans, right? 0.99

00:41:42.000 On the recent gun thing.

00:41:46.000 The bipartisan sellout thing.

00:41:47.000 Safer communities. 0.99

00:41:48.000 Total garbage. 1.00

00:41:49.000 And of course, there's a killing the next day. 0.99

00:41:54.000 It would have been 35, 10 years ago.

00:41:58.000 The Republican Party, because there has to be a party of the right, and the party of the right is going to be ascendant because of the insanity of the left.

00:42:09.000 It looks like insanity to normals, to us it looks like a plan.

00:42:14.000 And also their failure to run the institutions correctly.

00:42:17.000 $7 gas, just intolerable.

00:42:20.000 They're moving to the right, and the Republican Party will become more conservative.

00:42:26.000 And the Democrat Party is going to face a choice between going even more hardcore progressive or doing what they had to do after eight years of Reagan and four years of Bush, too, which is go more moderate.

00:42:37.000 It's a 50-50 government.

00:42:40.000 It's always 50-50 because there are two parties.

00:42:43.000 The Democrats, unless they want to be out, as long as they I think the issue is the younger generation is particularly more partisan and more zealous on both sides.

00:42:51.000 a a a rump resistance and let the uh you know right wing rule 1.00

00:42:58.000 then they won't have to change i think the issue is the younger generation is particularly more partisan and

00:43:04.000 more zealous on both sides yeah but that's always true so

00:43:09.000 why would someone whose world view uh matt walsh for instance to go back to

00:43:14.000 what he said that we don't agree that we i despise them they they feel the same way about me

00:43:19.000 It's one thing when it's the 90s and you can see the political overlap according to Pew and it's like moderate overlap in their worldviews.

00:43:28.000 Today it's completely disparate.

00:43:30.000 Today it's parents who are bringing their kids to drag shows.

00:43:33.000 And parents who think that's child abuse.

00:43:36.000 The kids who grew up in these houses are never going to go and agree with that.

00:43:41.000 I mean, look, when you get to the point where an old man in tighty-whities is twerking to a little girl, and they're cheering for and waving to him, and the rest of the country thinks that's like a criminal offense, the kids who are raised in these environments are going to be even further away from each other.

00:43:58.000 Well, and they're not even going to know where to find it.

00:44:00.000 They're not going to know where to find values or morals or something different than that.

00:44:04.000 On the left?

00:44:05.000 Yeah, they're not going to know where to find it.

00:44:07.000 But it doesn't matter.

00:44:10.000 Right, but they wouldn't even know if they wanted it.

00:44:12.000 They don't have them.

00:44:13.000 They don't want them.

00:44:14.000 They won't want them.

00:44:15.000 They will grow up around all of that stuff, debauchery, and think this is fine, and then people on the right will have traditional American values, and they'll be like, people are out of their minds.

00:44:25.000 I think the one thing that's missing is I don't think, I think a lot of kids will grow

00:44:28.000 up and think that it's not fine.

00:44:30.000 And they're not going to know where to look to find the thing to fill that total void

00:44:36.000 that's just all depravity.

00:44:38.000 They're not going to know where to look.

00:44:39.000 I think conservatives have done a really poor job in saying over the past, whatever, 50

00:44:45.000 years, saying, oh, you don't want our values.

00:44:47.000 Okay, you can do whatever you like and not taking a stand and not saying, you know, yes, we do need to have a moral structure.

00:44:55.000 We do need to have this civil religion where we do have shared values.

00:44:58.000 It's at the point now where, like, when I talk to people, We don't even have the same value system.

00:45:04.000 We don't even agree on how to conduct ourselves in public.

00:45:07.000 Well Libby's right because I do think there is the potential for the next generation to embrace actual real values.

00:45:16.000 But it is You know, look, here's my example.

00:45:21.000 Remember 10 years ago when we were told that Latinx Americans were going to be the Democrats' way to future dominance?

00:45:29.000 That this would be a subservient, poor caste that would forever belong to the Democrat Party, living on scraps from the Democrats, and lo and behold, 50% of Latinx, and I just love that word. 1.00

00:45:43.000 I just love Latinx.

00:45:44.000 Or is it Latinx?

00:45:45.000 Honey, what do you think?

00:45:46.000 I thought it was Latinx.

00:45:48.000 It's Latinx.

00:45:49.000 Latino, Latina, Latinx.

00:45:51.000 Yeah, I'm joking.

00:45:52.000 I just like saying Latinx, Professor X. I want to see a couple of leftists fight it out with poll cues over the pronunciation.

00:45:58.000 But regardless, the Latinx Americans did not cooperate.

00:46:02.000 Half of them are now Republican, according to polls, because they didn't want this stuff, and they didn't want to be poor, and they didn't want to be subservient, and they didn't want to be certs.

00:46:12.000 And I, look, I think there, yes, we need to reach out to people because we've done a terrible job.

00:46:19.000 Right now the Republican Party is gliding along going, look at that desiccated old fossil masquerading as a president.

00:46:25.000 Oh man, that's great! 0.99

00:46:26.000 He's terrible!

00:46:27.000 We're gonna win!

00:46:28.000 But what are we offering?

00:46:30.000 We need to offer culture.

00:46:31.000 We do need to offer culture.

00:46:34.000 And God.

00:46:35.000 I don't want cults telling you what God is.

00:46:38.000 You just got to feel it because it's there.

00:46:39.000 It's vibrating.

00:46:40.000 It is judging.

00:46:41.000 It is you.

00:46:42.000 You are feeding it and it's creating you.

00:46:45.000 We don't need to be ashamed of what we believe in.

00:46:48.000 A lot of times it's like, well, you know, I'm religious, but you don't have to be.

00:46:51.000 Hey, I'm proud to be religious.

00:46:53.000 Look, I tried tolerance.

00:46:56.000 In the sense that everything was okay, and now they're trying to groom my kid in kindergarten.

00:47:02.000 All right, figuratively.

00:47:03.000 I don't have a kid in kindergarten.

00:47:04.000 But a lot of people do.

00:47:05.000 And that's when the whole tolerance thing changed.

00:47:07.000 They are grooming kids.

00:47:08.000 Yeah.

00:47:09.000 They're not trying to.

00:47:10.000 They are actually doing it.

00:47:11.000 Well, some kids resist.

00:47:14.000 But look, the thing is, we need to stop with this thing.

00:47:20.000 Everything is cool.

00:47:21.000 Everything is not cool.

00:47:22.000 Okay?

00:47:22.000 It is not cool to have drag queens in schools, ever.

00:47:25.000 I don't care if it validates you.

00:47:27.000 I don't care if it's important to your emotional well-being.

00:47:31.000 It's weird and it's creepy and you're not grooming my kids and... Conservatives basically embraced relativism.

00:47:37.000 Yes, and that was a mistake.

00:47:38.000 That was a huge mistake.

00:47:39.000 Because what we're offering is the opposite of relativism.

00:47:42.000 We're offering a set of values that is proven over time.

00:47:46.000 Which will help you determine meaning in your life.

00:47:48.000 Exactly, and a set of policies.

00:47:50.000 Yes.

00:47:51.000 Look, We know how to fix crime.

00:47:53.000 Rudy Giuliani did in New York City.

00:47:55.000 He did a great job.

00:47:55.000 Remember New York City in the 80s?

00:47:58.000 It was Crime City.

00:47:59.000 We know how to fix the economy.

00:48:01.000 Reagan did it and Trump did it.

00:48:02.000 In a couple years, both of them had it booming.

00:48:05.000 We know how to do this.

00:48:06.000 How do you fix the border?

00:48:07.000 We know how to fix the border.

00:48:08.000 How do you fix the military?

00:48:09.000 We did it after Vietnam. 0.96

00:48:11.000 I know.

00:48:11.000 I was the beneficiary of it.

00:48:13.000 I write about it in the dang book.

00:48:15.000 We know how to do the policy stuff, but we need to get away from relativism. 0.95

00:48:19.000 I'm not ashamed to say my values are better than the values of a bunch of weirdo perverts who are trying to go out and groom on kids. 0.98

00:48:28.000 My values are much better than people who want to kill little babies. 0.95

00:48:33.000 My values are better and I'm gonna fight for them.

00:48:37.000 I'm a big fan of utilizing science to prove the existence of God, because I think that people of all persuasions can agree when you look through a radio telescope what you're looking at, for the most part.

00:48:47.000 Unless you're blind, unfortunately, but we'll fix your eyes.

00:48:50.000 And you start to see these frequencies moving in almost this intelligence of nature.

00:48:56.000 Like, it's becoming, even Einstein, I think, the more scientific he became, the more he started to believe in God.

00:49:02.000 I think by the end of his life, he actually believed in a God, even though He wasn't necessarily religious of any kind.

00:49:07.000 That was true with a lot of philosophers as well who like, you know, like Kant, you know, embarked on this whole conversation about essentially saying that there wasn't really a higher power, but he himself believed and he believed at the end of his life as well.

00:49:21.000 I think there's a survey to find, like, most scientists believe in God or something like that.

00:49:25.000 And then you have all the people who are like, there's no such thing as God.

00:49:28.000 It's a simulation.

00:49:29.000 And you're like, oh.

00:49:30.000 Then who made the simulation?

00:49:34.000 Well, the argument, I love the simulation stuff because it's like the questions that philosophers and theologians have been asking for thousands of years are being asked for the first time by simulists who don't know they can find the answer to many of those questions in existing philosophy and theology.

00:49:51.000 Well, of course.

00:49:52.000 Or at least find the conversation.

00:49:53.000 And of course they think they've been educated because they have a degree from an Ivy League university and they come out and they are ignorant of their culture, their history, their past. 0.83

00:50:02.000 If you're ignorant of those things, you're going to be vulnerable to any nonsense. 0.59

00:50:07.000 What did Prager call it? 0.96

00:50:08.000 Cut flower politics or something like that?

00:50:09.000 Is that cut flower?

00:50:10.000 Where he's like, you can snip the flower off from the stem in the pot and it looks beautiful and eventually it dies.

00:50:17.000 It's cut from its roots.

00:50:19.000 I think because these people have been emotionally disenfranchised, maybe they're psychoactive, and the water supply, plastics, God knows what, but like, they need to see the math to believe in a God.

00:50:29.000 Like, they're the people that will put an arm in a frozen chamber to watch it get frostbite to learn about frostbite.

00:50:35.000 And those people need Science!

00:50:40.000 There's this crazy Japanese science fiction book where the guy eats himself methodically. 0.78

00:50:46.000 Yeah, he's like a cannibal and he just eats himself.

00:50:49.000 He eats himself one piece at a time. 0.77

00:50:53.000 It's very Japanese.

00:50:54.000 I was gonna say it's a very interesting leap from the start of the segment on Trump being arrested for treason to a guy eating himself.

00:51:00.000 It's not as weird as the tentacles.

00:51:03.000 This is a spectacular book actually.

00:51:05.000 A woman ends up criminally punished for having done something and she gets she gets planted in a park like a tree and her family comes to visit her and she's a tree and eventually she's just this.

00:51:16.000 A tree?

00:51:17.000 She's a tree.

00:51:18.000 Okay that's weird.

00:51:18.000 Are you talking about like Junji Ito stuff or something?

00:51:21.000 I don't remember who wrote it.

00:51:23.000 For a while I was really obsessed with Japanese fiction and I read like all of Kobo Abe, who I think is just stupid brilliant, like so amazing.

00:51:32.000 But to your point about science, I was teaching catechism at my church for a while and there'd always be like a couple kids who were there whose moms are just making them go and they're like, I'm an atheist, Miss Libby.

00:51:43.000 I'm an atheist." 0.88

00:51:44.000 And I'd be like, okay, you could be an atheist.

00:51:46.000 God doesn't exist.

00:51:47.000 There's no afterlife.

00:51:48.000 And I'd be like, okay, so you're an atheist, so you're into science and stuff.

00:51:51.000 Yeah, you know.

00:51:52.000 And I was like, okay, so if energy can't be destroyed or created, what happens to your energy after you die?

00:52:00.000 And that would always, and I mean, it's very simple.

00:52:03.000 It's like nothing, right?

00:52:04.000 And they'd always be like, oh, I wonder.

00:52:06.000 And I'd be like, yeah, go wonder, and I'll see you next week.

00:52:10.000 And we'll talk more about, you know, the gospel according to Matthew.

00:52:15.000 So what is going to happen to bring it back to what we were originally talking about?

00:52:19.000 We're looking for solutions.

00:52:20.000 The off-ramp.

00:52:21.000 I think it's God.

00:52:22.000 I think it's if people can start to believe and not feel bigger than their own body.

00:52:27.000 You're jumping so far beyond.

00:52:30.000 It's like, you may as well just say, this problem will be solved once everything's good and the problem is solved.

00:52:37.000 There's a way to solve it.

00:52:39.000 Getting people who are in a cult to break out of that cult is the challenge.

00:52:42.000 But okay, the problem is when people try and do it by telling them Christian God.

00:52:46.000 Because they're very resistant.

00:52:47.000 But that's not what we're talking about.

00:52:48.000 That's not what's happening.

00:52:49.000 What's happening is beyond the religious.

00:52:54.000 Now certainly these people are inferring religion on a lot of these issues.

00:52:57.000 It doesn't have to be religious.

00:52:58.000 But I don't understand what you're talking about.

00:53:00.000 We're talking about science.

00:53:00.000 I'm talking about unification.

00:53:02.000 Conscious unification.

00:53:03.000 We need to bring people together.

00:53:05.000 So, let's slow down.

00:53:08.000 You have a faction that's in a cult.

00:53:10.000 You look at these journalists, like the NBC News team is fantastic.

00:53:13.000 You run their Twitter accounts through Ground.News, BiasFactChecker, and it's like 100% left-wing.

00:53:18.000 They don't consume or interact with any news that comes from the right.

00:53:21.000 None!

00:53:22.000 So they're in a bubble.

00:53:24.000 That's why they believe Kyle Rittenhouse lies, Covington Catholic lies.

00:53:27.000 That's why they believe Jesse Smollett.

00:53:29.000 How do you get people out of a cult?

00:53:31.000 Well, we know how.

00:53:32.000 You have to physically separate them from the cult and then help them re-acclimate to normal functioning society.

00:53:38.000 Or entice them to physically separate themselves.

00:53:41.000 Well, that's literally what I just said.

00:53:43.000 You just said remove them.

00:53:44.000 You said physically remove them.

00:53:46.000 You could do that.

00:53:46.000 You could take a kid that's in a cult and put him in your car and drive away.

00:53:50.000 There's multiple ways to get people out of cults.

00:53:53.000 The point is that people need to be separate from the cult.

00:53:56.000 Period.

00:53:56.000 I get it.

00:53:57.000 Get the semantics out of there.

00:53:58.000 So people have to be separate from the cult.

00:54:00.000 The problem is they have cell phones and the cell phones keep them attached with like an umbilical cord into the cult.

00:54:05.000 That's like Charlie Kirk said today, digital pacifier.

00:54:09.000 Yes.

00:54:09.000 Whenever they're presented with information that would shock their system, they start breaking down and they retreat back to the cult and say, give me the things I need to believe.

00:54:18.000 How do you break someone out of a cult when they're wired into it?

00:54:22.000 That's the challenge.

00:54:23.000 Believing in God is irrelevant.

00:54:24.000 They're in a cult.

00:54:25.000 You won't get them to believe in God or find anything or self-reflect or even take psychedelics.

00:54:30.000 So long as they're in a cult.

00:54:31.000 But they're wired into it.

00:54:32.000 You can alter the well of the cult.

00:54:34.000 Like you can change an entire cult's belief system.

00:54:36.000 Well, that's what we're trying to do, right?

00:54:38.000 I mean, that's sort of what we're out here trying to do.

00:54:40.000 Like, hey, look at it this way, guys.

00:54:43.000 Look at it this other way.

00:54:44.000 You're looking at it from this very biased perspective.

00:54:47.000 And you know, it can be a little bit of like, I got my mom to stop watching Rachel Maddow, and then I got her to stop watching CNN.

00:54:54.000 And now she says things like, I'm proud of you.

00:54:59.000 Please, there is one thing you need to do to anyone of your family members that is in the cult, that believes CNN, believes Brian Stelter.

00:55:11.000 Don't get mad at them.

00:55:12.000 Don't argue things with them.

00:55:14.000 Just send them the Twitter video from Libs of TikTok of the old man in tighty whities twerking for the little girl.

00:55:20.000 That's it.

00:55:20.000 Just send them that.

00:55:22.000 Say nothing else.

00:55:23.000 And then just send them videos like that with nothing else.

00:55:27.000 Don't say Donald Trump is good.

00:55:29.000 Don't make points.

00:55:30.000 Don't give your opinion.

00:55:32.000 Just show them a video.

00:55:33.000 Because they'll pull it up without knowing what it is, and they'll press play and go, huh!

00:55:37.000 Remember, it's very hard to convince people, but people do convince themselves.

00:55:42.000 A lot of people leave cults.

00:55:44.000 A lot of people chose to leave Scientology.

00:55:46.000 A lot of people chose to leave, what was it, Keith Raniere, the NXIVM.

00:55:50.000 Is that what it was?

00:55:51.000 NXIVM.

00:55:51.000 They left!

00:55:52.000 They eventually looked at it and it occurred to them, no, there's something wrong.

00:55:56.000 So a significant number will leave on their own.

00:56:00.000 We're talking the hardcore ones who are first in line to get the Kool-Aid.

00:56:06.000 But a significant number will leave.

00:56:09.000 And a lot of conservatives are former left.

00:56:11.000 I don't know a lot of leftists who are former actual conservatives.

00:56:15.000 The bulwark guys don't count.

00:56:17.000 The issue is, don't message your family member saying, hey, you need to watch this video for this reason.

00:56:24.000 Don't do any of that.

00:56:25.000 Because we learned this from Brandon Strzok.

00:56:27.000 He said someone sent him a video.

00:56:29.000 Now in his instance, it worked, but he said someone sent him a video and he was like, I don't want to watch it.

00:56:33.000 I'm not going to watch it.

00:56:34.000 He has a really interesting story.

00:56:35.000 And then he said, you know what?

00:56:37.000 I'll watch this to prove them wrong.

00:56:39.000 And the video woke him up.

00:56:40.000 So, the issue is, when you send someone a video as an argument, many people will resist and be like, no, I'm not watching your argument.

00:56:48.000 But if you just send a family member a video saying nothing, they might just go, what is it?

00:56:52.000 And press play.

00:56:53.000 And then they see a fat old man in tighty whities, twerking for a little girl, and people cheering and clapping for it, and they go, what is this?

00:57:00.000 Then you can tell them what it is.

00:57:02.000 It's clear, and it's like their spirit's like, oh my god, what have I been doing?

00:57:07.000 Here's what people didn't understand.

00:57:09.000 When we are growing up, we are building a worldview in our minds, and by the time we're around 24-28, our mind has solidified on our worldview, for the most part.

00:57:20.000 And this is a survival tactic in evolution, that if you have made it this long, what you did works, don't deviate, you have learned.

00:57:30.000 When people are then presented with worldly information that contradicts their worldview, it is a threat to them, which is why they get angry and shut down or have panic attacks.

00:57:40.000 We have heard it over and over again from people like Brandon that when they were finally exposed to undeniable information, it was physically painful.

00:57:48.000 They felt physical pain.

00:57:50.000 It was like something was being purged from them.

00:57:53.000 People will resist that pain like a drug addict, which means you have to be careful, tactful, and precise when you're talking to them, when you're sharing information with them.

00:58:03.000 If you approach someone as an enemy, they will shut down.

00:58:06.000 Of course.

00:58:06.000 If you approach them as a friend, they will open up.

00:58:09.000 So, don't argue with your family members, insult them, listen to what they say and what they're concerned with, and then be like, wow, I didn't know that.

00:58:16.000 Check out this video.

00:58:17.000 And then just send them the twerking man.

00:58:19.000 You don't have to agree or disagree, too.

00:58:20.000 You can understand something without agreeing or disagreeing with it.

00:58:23.000 Well, remember, you're not using argument in the traditional way.

00:58:26.000 Look, when I go to a court, when I'm doing a case, I've got 12 people and they've got to sit there and the judge will yell at them if they're not listening.

00:58:32.000 So they have to at least receive it.

00:58:34.000 Whether I can convince them or not is a different question.

00:58:37.000 That's the power of my evidence, the power of my presentation.

00:58:41.000 Tim's absolutely right.

00:58:43.000 When you're trying to convince somebody to get out of the leftist cult, you have to let them want to do it.

00:58:50.000 There's a lot of pride.

00:58:52.000 If you find yourself in a position where you're defending a tighty-whitey guy twerking in front of kids, And you understand at some level that's bad? 0.97

00:59:00.000 You're ashamed because you've done that.

00:59:02.000 You don't have to rub their face in it.

00:59:05.000 Let them come around.

00:59:06.000 They gotta talk themselves out of it.

00:59:08.000 A lot of times they don't want to, right?

00:59:10.000 It feels good to be in a situation where everyone agrees with you.

00:59:14.000 It is.

00:59:15.000 For boomers, that Tidy Whitey video is like a giant red suppository. 0.99

00:59:21.000 It's a painful wake-up call for a lot of people.

00:59:24.000 A lot of people didn't know it was that bad.

00:59:26.000 And exactly, we've heard that, where people have told us, like, oh, my family member says, that's not true, that can't be happening.

00:59:34.000 We had Richie McGinnis' mom, old school feminist, and we're sitting here and I said, feminists are pro-war. 1.00

00:59:40.000 No, they aren't!

00:59:40.000 no they aren't!"

00:59:42.000 And then I said, okay, let's clarify then.

00:59:45.000 The people who wore the pink pussy hats are substantially more likely to be the ones waving

00:59:50.000 the flags of Ukraine advocating for US intervention in Eastern Europe into war.

00:59:54.000 And she went, what?

00:59:55.000 And Richie, her son, says, yeah, yeah, actually, that's true.

00:59:59.000 And she's older, and so I said, listen, I think the issue is you're older, you're kind of tuned out to what's going on in the world, and the younger generation is on the battlefront that you aren't watching.

01:00:11.000 So you can't believe any of these things happen, but you need to listen and watch and look through the window and see what's out your front door, and tidy whitey man is that cold slap in the face for the boomer generation. 0.92

01:00:22.000 Look, anything that involves kids is Really gonna be, you know, the nitrous oxide that, yeah, you add to the supercharger and the engine just goes on, you know, way into the red.

01:00:34.000 I mean, the idea that Virginia, which is a blue state, would put somebody named, like, Glenn Youngkin in, who is a fairly conservative guy.

01:00:42.000 He's not, you know, 180 pounds of Miracle Whip stuffed in a $5,000 suit like Mitt Romney is.

01:00:49.000 Okay.

01:00:50.000 I mean, he's actually... Miracle Whip is a great insult.

01:00:54.000 It's not even mayo.

01:00:56.000 Mayo is a proud condiment.

01:00:57.000 Miracle Whip. 1.00

01:00:59.000 He's just so basic.

01:01:00.000 But no, he's actually conservative and the people of Virginia chose him.

01:01:07.000 And the reason they did it was, you know, kids coming home going, Mom, Dad, why are you all racist?

01:01:13.000 Yeah.

01:01:14.000 This happened to me.

01:01:15.000 This happened after the George Floyd stuff, right? 1.00

01:01:17.000 And we were doing the virtual learning because of stupid COVID. 0.98

01:01:20.000 And I heard an announcement on the classroom computer screen that there was going to be a two-day lesson on, what was it, systemic racism and white privilege. 0.99

01:01:31.000 And I'm looking at that, I'm looking at my kid who, what was it, fourth grade?

01:01:35.000 Has it been that long?

01:01:36.000 Who was like the The only white kid in his class, you know, we live in a very immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, which I like my neighborhood.

01:01:44.000 And he was like, I was like, okay, I'm gonna record this whole thing.

01:01:48.000 I put on the voice recorder for the full two days.

01:01:52.000 I wrote about it.

01:01:53.000 But afterward, I talked to my son about it.

01:01:55.000 And he was like, Mom, we're racist.

01:01:57.000 And I was like, we're not racist, honey.

01:01:58.000 And he's like, well, or my grandparents are racist.

01:02:01.000 I was like, they're They're totally not.

01:02:03.000 My parents are not racist either.

01:02:04.000 Well, our great-grandparents are.

01:02:06.000 We went through the whole thing and I was like, your great-grandmom taught at, like, integrated schools in Brownsville, Brooklyn.

01:02:12.000 She was really proud of the work she did.

01:02:13.000 You know, your grandma was a public defender in Philadelphia.

01:02:16.000 She was, like, defending, uh, Eddie Africa and, like, all these guys, you know, like... Of the move guys?

01:02:22.000 The move guys, yeah.

01:02:23.000 From after the 78, the shooting.

01:02:24.000 Yeah, the bomb and everything.

01:02:27.000 Well, that was in the 80s, yeah.

01:02:28.000 But I was like, We're definitely, we're not only not racist, our family has a history of not really being that racist, you know?

01:02:35.000 Fighting against it.

01:02:37.000 Yeah, working to not be racist.

01:02:39.000 You know, I was on with Prager the other day.

01:02:40.000 He asked me an interesting question, you know, in connection with the book.

01:02:43.000 He's like, a lot of people will, you know, accuse, you know, Kurt, your family served in the Civil War on the Union side.

01:02:53.000 Your hometown was burned down by the Confederates.

01:02:57.000 I don't get the glory of being part of the union because that wasn't me.

01:03:00.000 European people will call you racist but you have this family history how do you

01:03:04.000 feel about that I say I said well I'm not I'm not responsible for my family I

01:03:10.000 don't get the glory of being part of the Union because I wasn't me and I don't

01:03:14.000 have blood on my hands because that also wasn't me I what counts is the contents

01:03:20.000 of my character and that's it and that is the answer most normal Americans will

01:03:26.000 give and it's a very attractive answer well it is American and American and

01:03:32.000 normal people will respond to that if we get out there and say but there's so

01:03:36.000 many people who are afraid to confront these little weirdos.

01:03:40.000 You know, I don't want to get called a racist.

01:03:43.000 I don't want to get called a transphobe.

01:03:45.000 I don't care what people who hate me call me.

01:03:47.000 Don't care at all.

01:03:49.000 Should we have the government pay reparations to the descendants of people 1.00

01:03:53.000 who died in the Civil War to fight for the Union?

01:03:55.000 So if like your great-great-great-grandfather was a Union soldier

01:03:59.000 and he like kissed his wife goodbye and there's the baby and then he was like, I am going to fight this war to free

01:04:05.000 the slaves and end this moral abomination.

01:04:08.000 government be like, those people lost their lives and deserve payment?

01:04:12.000 Absolutely not.

01:04:14.000 No corruption of blood, no glory of blood.

01:04:17.000 We have collective glory in the United States because we fought a giant war to end slavery.

01:04:22.000 I'm proud of my country.

01:04:25.000 Is my relatives?

01:04:26.000 My relatives aren't me.

01:04:27.000 I don't get to go and, like, share. 0.79

01:04:29.000 I mean, that's ridiculous. 1.00

01:04:31.000 It's just so stupid. 1.00

01:04:32.000 It's like people who believe in loyalty. 1.00

01:04:34.000 I don't believe in the sins of the father.

01:04:36.000 You're an individual.

01:04:37.000 You make your own choices.

01:04:38.000 Neither does the, you know, the American Republic also doesn't believe in the sins of the father.

01:04:43.000 You're not responsible for your parents' debt. 1.00

01:04:46.000 It's stupid. 1.00

01:04:47.000 So I wonder if enough parents are going to be... So, COVID. 1.00

01:04:52.000 Allowed parents to hear what their kids were being taught.

01:04:55.000 That's all ending now, and the kids are going back to school.

01:04:58.000 So I'm wondering if now parents are going to fall back asleep.

01:05:02.000 And this was a fluke, essentially.

01:05:04.000 I think that there's actually a lot of parents who are not, and parents have gotten organized.

01:05:08.000 Like if you look at Moms for Liberty and Tiffany Justice, who founded that group, they have a summit coming up this weekend in Tampa, Florida, which is going to be, I think, really exciting.

01:05:17.000 Very cool.

01:05:18.000 Yeah, it's very cool.

01:05:19.000 And moms specifically are not going to let this drop. 1.00

01:05:23.000 And if you look at them, it's like this very diverse group of educated moms who really have no interest in watching their kids be indoctrinated or watching their daughters, you know, end up trans and their grandchildren are getting butchered before they can even, you know, be born. 0.77

01:05:40.000 All of this stuff.

01:05:42.000 I think you have a lot of parents who, I think that we've seen a lot of that.

01:05:45.000 If you look at like the whole DeSantis movement, parental rights and education bill, that bill was wildly popular across the country despite the White House's attempt to brand it as the don't say gay bill.

01:05:56.000 I mean, parents looked at it and they were like, yeah, schools shouldn't be keeping the mental state of my kids a secret from me.

01:06:03.000 They shouldn't be calling them random new names that the kids came up with.

01:06:07.000 And the Democrats lied about it?

01:06:08.000 Yes.

01:06:10.000 And the media lied about it?

01:06:11.000 They lied about it very effectively.

01:06:13.000 And the people who are in a cult and don't want to take their fingers out of their ears believe it.

01:06:19.000 We even had a thing at Post Millennial, too, where they kept calling it Don't Say Gay Bill in all of the press.

01:06:27.000 So I'd open up an article to edit it, and it would say the so-called Don't Say Gay Bill.

01:06:32.000 And I kept getting in touch with writers being like, no, we're not using their language.

01:06:37.000 We're not going to secede language to them.

01:06:39.000 They have it all wrong. 1.00

01:06:40.000 They're making up stupid definitions. 0.99

01:06:42.000 None of these words mean what they tell us that they mean, and that's not what the bill is about. 0.99

01:06:46.000 It was the Don't Say Straight bill because it prevented teachers from talking about heterosexual marriage. 0.77

01:06:50.000 It was that, too.

01:06:51.000 It was all of that.

01:06:52.000 And now, following the Supreme Court's ruling where the guy prayed on the 50-yard line, Democrats are pushing Don't Say Pray?

01:06:58.000 I think they just called it the Don't.

01:06:59.000 Don't.

01:07:00.000 They just called it Don't.

01:07:01.000 Don't.

01:07:01.000 Yeah, don't.

01:07:02.000 Just obey us.

01:07:03.000 Just do what we say.

01:07:04.000 Don't.

01:07:05.000 It's the don't bill.

01:07:06.000 I thought that was a great ruling about the coach, the praying coach.

01:07:10.000 Oh yeah, what's that all about?

01:07:11.000 Well, he would pray after a game was over.

01:07:15.000 He would go out in the 50-yard line, I believe, football coach, and he would just like say

01:07:19.000 a little prayer.

01:07:20.000 And players started joining him.

01:07:22.000 And they would come out and they'd be like, we're going to pray with coach too.

01:07:25.000 And it turned into a whole thing.

01:07:27.000 He didn't tell them to come out there.

01:07:28.000 There wasn't anything special, any special treatment for the kids that would go out and

01:07:32.000 pray.

01:07:33.000 He would do like a prayer in the locker room, voluntary.

01:07:36.000 Anyone could join.

01:07:37.000 Anyone could not join.

01:07:38.000 It wasn't a big issue.

01:07:40.000 And he, I think he got fired.

01:07:42.000 He did get fired because he wouldn't give it up.

01:07:44.000 And it's, it's very interesting.

01:07:46.000 What's interesting is, you know, you guys know a concept of standing.

01:07:49.000 You have to have suffered a injury, an injury before you can bring a suit.

01:07:54.000 Uh, what's the injury that would allow the plaintiffs suing the school district over, you know, this guy praying?

01:08:02.000 Cause that, cause they fired him because they said, we're going to get sued.

01:08:05.000 What is their standing?

01:08:06.000 That they're offended?

01:08:07.000 They would have to articulate that.

01:08:08.000 There's the problem that it's not true.

01:08:10.000 were ostracized or excluded or negatively impacted by refusing to be

01:08:15.000 party to the prayer. They would have to articulate that.

01:08:18.000 There's the problem that it's not true. But yeah, look, this is more leftist

01:08:27.000 control and I'm glad we have at least one institution, the Supreme Court, that

01:08:31.000 refuses to go along Now we have dozens of other major institutions of society that are completely controlled by left, including our military.

01:08:39.000 Well, that's collapsing.

01:08:41.000 Oh, it's a disaster.

01:08:42.000 It's chaos.

01:08:43.000 60,000 guardsmen in reserve is not allowed to drill.

01:08:48.000 We're halfway through the year, they're at 40% of recruiting goals.

01:08:53.000 So their idea was, well, let's just cut the number of end strength.

01:08:56.000 Right, right.

01:08:57.000 You know, I retired seven and a half years ago as an 06.

01:09:02.000 I know lots of other colonels.

01:09:03.000 And it is unanimous.

01:09:05.000 This is a disaster.

01:09:05.000 And it's not just, you know, back in our day, it was tough when we did basic training.

01:09:09.000 No, back in our day, we won wars.

01:09:12.000 What's a solution to that?

01:09:13.000 What is going on with that whole thing?

01:09:15.000 Well, you should buy my book.

01:09:17.000 We'll be back, The Fall and Rise of America.

01:09:19.000 Look, the next president is A, going to have to not be impressed by generals.

01:09:24.000 Donald Trump was.

01:09:26.000 Donald Trump likes credentials.

01:09:28.000 He does like shiny things.

01:09:29.000 He likes shiny things.

01:09:30.000 Oh, this guy, Dr. Oz went to Harvard.

01:09:33.000 Okay, not a good thing.

01:09:35.000 Not a good thing.

01:09:35.000 Sorry, Ben Shapiro.

01:09:36.000 Love ya.

01:09:37.000 Not a good thing.

01:09:37.000 Trump went to an Ivy too, right?

01:09:39.000 He went to Penn.

01:09:40.000 He went to Penn and Wharton.

01:09:41.000 Yeah, kind of counts.

01:09:42.000 But he was very impressed by generals.

01:09:46.000 Here's the thing.

01:09:47.000 If you're going to change it, You need to spend time as the president.

01:09:51.000 Remember, it's a hierarchical organization.

01:09:54.000 We always say, soldiers do what the commander checks.

01:09:56.000 If the commander checks wokeness, that is, if that's his intent, you're going to get wokeness.

01:10:01.000 Because it's an organization that responds to the commander's intent.

01:10:05.000 If you want combat readiness, that's a different thing.

01:10:08.000 So you get a president in there, first day fires all joint chiefs, brings in new joint chiefs, says, guys, it's Monday, it's 0900.

01:10:16.000 This is my intent.

01:10:16.000 This is not a decision briefing.

01:10:18.000 This is called an orders briefing.

01:10:20.000 I am telling you what you're going to do.

01:10:22.000 You're going to come back here Friday.

01:10:24.000 Friday, each of you will brief me about your organization, including you Space Force guys, and you're going to brief me on how you have Ended diversity equity and inclusion no more months

01:10:39.000 diversity inclusion and equity You're right I should be die 0.99

01:10:46.000 Because that's what soldiers will do if they're going around learning to hate their buddy rather than learning to

01:10:51.000 fight So we're gonna we're gonna end all that you're gonna end

01:10:54.000 all months. There's no more pride month There's no more, you know, Southern Northern Norwegian 1.00

01:10:59.000 month. We're not doing any of that You're gonna take it out of West Point. You're gonna take

01:11:00.000 We're not doing any of that.

01:11:02.000 You're gonna take it out of West Point.

01:11:03.000 You're gonna take it out of War College.

01:11:04.000 it out of War College You're gonna take it out of everything every civilian who's 1.00

01:11:05.000 You're gonna take it out of everything.

01:11:06.000 Every civilian who's in a slot that includes the word diversity, inclusion, or equity

01:11:07.000 in a slot that includes the word diversity inclusion or equity is going to be

01:11:11.000 Terminated as redundant everyone who's military in a slot that includes one of those words is going to be moved into

01:11:11.000 is gonna be terminated as redundant.

01:11:13.000 Everyone who's military in a slot that includes one of those words

01:11:16.000 is going to be moved into a combat unit.

01:11:18.000 a combat yet Come back here at 9 a.m. On Friday and tell me you have

01:11:19.000 Come back here at 9 a.m. on Friday and tell me you have done that.

01:11:23.000 So what you're looking for is a leader with integrity.

01:11:25.000 A leader who understands how to lead.

01:11:28.000 Right, and you don't say it, and you don't add Trump under that.

01:11:29.000 We haven't had one of those in a very long time.

01:11:30.000 Well, Donald Trump didn't know how to do it because he wasn't a leader. He did a better job

01:11:34.000 than Biden, for sure.

01:11:35.000 Oh, Donald Trump, I think Donald Trump was a great president.

01:11:38.000 One of his problems is he's impressed by the military.

01:11:40.000 He needs to beat the Pentagon with a whip and a chair and make it bend to his will.

01:11:46.000 You fire enough general.

01:11:47.000 You bring him in that Friday.

01:11:48.000 Have you done it, General?

01:11:49.000 Well, you know, sir, I... You're out.

01:11:52.000 You're gone.

01:11:53.000 You're fired.

01:11:53.000 Trump would be good at that, right?

01:11:54.000 He's really good at that.

01:11:56.000 And the little kicker.

01:11:57.000 And you are ordered not to retire until I investigate you to determine if you retire as a O-10 and not a O-9, because you retire at the last rank where you performed adequately.

01:12:10.000 So you do that a couple of times and stop. You retire them at a lower rank.

01:12:14.000 Oh wow.

01:12:14.000 They don't get, I mean, you don't take away a star. Oh, if I were the president,

01:12:18.000 if I were advising the president, say, I don't know, a president with naval experience like

01:12:22.000 DeSantis, I would say, put a little box on your desk. And, you know, if a general doesn't like

01:12:27.000 what you're doing, say, general, you can put your stars in there and you can retire because you can

01:12:33.000 tell me I will not be part of a military that refuses to have transsexuals serving on equitative 1.00

01:12:40.000 And I respect your integrity.

01:12:42.000 You can put your stuff in there and you put your stars in there and you'll no longer be in the military.

01:12:47.000 And then your deputy will do what I have said.

01:12:50.000 Because I'm president.

01:12:51.000 When they come back Friday morning and tell you we've done it, how do you guarantee that it's actually done?

01:12:55.000 Because these guys work in shell games on Trump.

01:12:58.000 Yes, and that's why you... The second part is the political unit within the White House that actually monitors not only the military at first, but others, and looks for cautionary examples.

01:13:11.000 For instance, hey, I saw this story on the web, Mr. President, about a chaplain at Elmendorf Air Force Base who was told he can't mention Jesus.

01:13:19.000 Because it's not inclusive.

01:13:21.000 Great!

01:13:22.000 General Air Force Secretary, I want you and everybody in the chain of command down to that chaplain in my office Monday morning to brief me on how you're meeting my commander's intent for religious freedom.

01:13:37.000 So come on in here and explain it to me.

01:13:40.000 And you come in and when they don't explain it to your right, you fire everybody in the chain of command and everybody gets the message that, oh wow, somebody posts something on the net and it's bad?

01:13:51.000 The president's going to see it.

01:13:52.000 And we're going to have to answer for that.

01:13:53.000 Because there are guys looking for reasons to screw with people.

01:13:58.000 And that's what's happening now, but the other way around.

01:14:00.000 Yes!

01:14:00.000 Exactly!

01:14:01.000 So like, people are getting in trouble for posting the Gadsden flag.

01:14:03.000 Bingo!

01:14:04.000 But the funny thing is, the Gadsden flag is like a license plate in Virginia.

01:14:07.000 Yes.

01:14:07.000 Right.

01:14:07.000 So there were, this was when they were doing the DC deployment, there were reports that people whose Facebook pages had posts like the Gadsden flag were being removed from the mission.

01:14:16.000 But it's like, the flag, you go to Virginia, all the Virginia license plates are Gadsden.

01:14:19.000 Yeah, it's very easy.

01:14:20.000 You know, Secretary of Defense, bring in everybody from that guy's company commander up to the force corps general.

01:14:27.000 I don't know if Trump would do it.

01:14:28.000 DeSantis?

01:14:29.000 I think DeSantis could do it because he understands if he does it about three or four times, the message is going to get out that now the commander's checking combat readiness and he's serious.

01:14:40.000 He also seems to stick to his guns, DeSantis, which I appreciate.

01:14:43.000 Well, DeSantis was a JAG for SEALs, so he was in a lot of important meetings.

01:14:51.000 He knows how they work and he knows how generals work.

01:14:54.000 And there are a lot of us guys out there who know how generals work.

01:14:57.000 We'd be happy to come in and share our expertise.

01:14:59.000 Look, my dream job is to be a political side White House.

01:15:04.000 I'm the guy who goes to the Pentagon, sits across the desk from a general and goes, General, what would you say you do here?

01:15:12.000 Oh, just like in the office space.

01:15:13.000 So what do you think of 2024?

01:15:15.000 Do you think DeSantis or Trump?

01:15:20.000 I think both will run.

01:15:22.000 I've talked to people who talked to Trump, literally.

01:15:25.000 I got a nice note from Trump the other day.

01:15:26.000 You think DeSantis is going to run in 2024?

01:15:28.000 DeSantis has to run.

01:15:30.000 Everybody seems to really want him to.

01:15:32.000 He has to run.

01:15:32.000 And I want him to run because I want a tough primary.

01:15:35.000 I want the best person in 2024.

01:15:36.000 How will Trump go after DeSantis?

01:15:41.000 Oh, that's such a good question.

01:15:43.000 Because Trump, look how he roasted Elon.

01:15:45.000 It was hilarious.

01:15:46.000 It was funny, but was it really that effective?

01:15:49.000 Well, I mean, what's effective about roasting Elon?

01:15:51.000 They're not really up against each other.

01:15:53.000 It's just Trump slapping him, you know, figuratively.

01:15:57.000 But with Trump and DeSantis, DeSantis is wildly popular, especially among Trump's base.

01:16:03.000 And he's succeeded on every front.

01:16:06.000 He's doing great.

01:16:07.000 It's tough for Trump.

01:16:09.000 Because, you know, he has this guy, and DeSantis is a smart guy.

01:16:12.000 He's not going to attack Trump.

01:16:13.000 He's going to go, you know, I know the president's running.

01:16:15.000 I'm running on my record.

01:16:17.000 I respect the president, and I'll be happy to support him if the voters choose him.

01:16:21.000 Here's what I've done in Florida.

01:16:22.000 Now, what's Trump do?

01:16:23.000 That would actually be effective.

01:16:25.000 That would be super effective.

01:16:26.000 It really would be.

01:16:27.000 Take the high road.

01:16:28.000 What's Trump do?

01:16:28.000 Does Trump attack?

01:16:29.000 Well, you know, sweaty run, DeSantis!

01:16:32.000 And it's like, or whatever.

01:16:33.000 And he'd be like, yeah, I work hard.

01:16:35.000 He's like, I'm in Florida.

01:16:36.000 And he'd just laugh and go, well, you know, President Trump, he's a funny guy.

01:16:41.000 Here's what I've done in Florida, you know, and I'd like to, you know, draw your attention to my successful personnel policies.

01:16:48.000 Right.

01:16:48.000 You know, like I say, for every Rick Grinnell and Robert O'Brien, Trump's got like 10 John Boltons, okay?

01:16:56.000 Actually, I heard his mustache actually had to separately get a security clearance.

01:17:01.000 It's not a lot of people know about him.

01:17:03.000 So Trump says he's gonna drain the swamp.

01:17:05.000 For whatever reason, it didn't happen.

01:17:07.000 It started.

01:17:07.000 Maybe it's because he brought in Bolton.

01:17:10.000 He was like, I'm gonna drain the swamp and the first thing I'm gonna do is I'm bringing the biggest swamp monster possible.

01:17:15.000 Yes.

01:17:15.000 It was a mixed record.

01:17:16.000 Yes.

01:17:17.000 And I talk about it in the book.

01:17:19.000 I have the last two chapters, last chapter, second to last, analyzes all the potential

01:17:24.000 candidates and talks about Trump and DeSantis and how I want a primary to hone the winner.

01:17:29.000 I want a strong winner.

01:17:30.000 The last chapter is a president looking back as he passes it on to his vice president,

01:17:36.000 Rick Grinnell, and how he went and did this.

01:17:42.000 And part of that's the military thing I talked about.

01:17:44.000 But there's a lot of things to do, and you need a president who knows what time it is, and has the strength to commit the time to fixing these things, rather than just dealing with the, you know, squirrel of the day.

01:17:57.000 I kind of think DeSantis, you know, we'll see what happens moving forward.

01:18:03.000 My concern with DeSantis is foreign policy, because we haven't seen that.

01:18:06.000 And Donald Trump, I think, did really well on foreign policy.

01:18:08.000 I thought his whole bilateral trade thing, like his, all of those agreements where it was like, you know, two, like agreement between the US and one other country, I thought those were effective.

01:18:18.000 What are those called?

01:18:19.000 Those are bilaterals.

01:18:20.000 Yeah, bilaterals.

01:18:22.000 He settled the Middle East War! 0.98

01:18:24.000 I mean, I'm old.

01:18:25.000 That was great.

01:18:26.000 Abraham Accords.

01:18:27.000 I think that was Kushner, right?

01:18:29.000 Yeah, Kushner was involved.

01:18:30.000 And then you had the UAE accepting flights from Israel, which was really cool.

01:18:35.000 Kosovo and Serbia.

01:18:36.000 That was cool.

01:18:37.000 Negotiated by Grinnell.

01:18:38.000 It's amazing.

01:18:40.000 Domestic issues, DeSantis does very, very well.

01:18:43.000 Particularly in Florida.

01:18:44.000 And COVID was a big deal.

01:18:46.000 So I think the economy would do well.

01:18:48.000 But my fear is Trump has got, let's just say, character flaws, is a simple way to put it, in how he handles things.

01:18:56.000 He lacks discipline.

01:18:57.000 Sure.

01:18:58.000 But he did well by the economy.

01:19:00.000 Yes.

01:19:00.000 He did well by foreign policy.

01:19:01.000 Yes.

01:19:01.000 He did well in the culture war.

01:19:03.000 Yes.

01:19:03.000 And he didn't handle himself as well as he should have when it came to the media.

01:19:06.000 True.

01:19:06.000 But people liked that he smacked the media down.

01:19:09.000 Ron DeSantis seems to have all that plus the tact, but what if we vote for DeSantis and all of a sudden it's like Middle Eastern wars again? 0.58

01:19:17.000 That's why you have to have a tough primary.

01:19:19.000 This is why you like Grinnell, right?

01:19:21.000 I love Grinnell.

01:19:22.000 Grinnell, a personal friend.

01:19:25.000 I would sit with Grinnell and when he was going over to Germany and he would ask me, you know, when I go to an army base, what do I look for?

01:19:33.000 Not like, hey, I'm gonna have some parties at the embassy.

01:19:35.000 What do I go for?

01:19:36.000 What am I looking for at a base to see if it's working right?

01:19:39.000 And I would talk to him for hours about this stuff.

01:19:41.000 I'm very impressed.

01:19:42.000 But I mean, we need a primary to suss that out.

01:19:45.000 Right, right.

01:19:45.000 Because that's your question.

01:19:46.000 I want to, you know, Rob DeSantis, we don't know what you think about foreign policy.

01:19:50.000 Tell us.

01:19:51.000 How about endless wars?

01:19:52.000 Where do you come on down on those?

01:19:53.000 You know, I will say this.

01:19:55.000 Having Luke Rydkowski on this show just like ardently defend DeSantis over and over again, I'm like, that's an endorsement.

01:20:01.000 Luke hates the government.

01:20:02.000 Yeah, every single politician and he's like, Ron DeSantis.

01:20:06.000 What do you say?

01:20:06.000 He saved America or something like he really did, man.

01:20:09.000 He I mean, he made a bold stand in an unknown area.

01:20:14.000 Yep.

01:20:15.000 Against COVID the way or maybe not even against COVID just for Florida.

01:20:19.000 I remember going to, I went to CPAC, what was it in like, uh, 2021 in Orlando, Florida.

01:20:26.000 Yeah.

01:20:27.000 And I was just like, Oh my God, it is paradise.

01:20:30.000 It was so nice.

01:20:30.000 I think I cried.

01:20:32.000 It was amazing.

01:20:33.000 People were nice.

01:20:34.000 You could go out for drinks and everyone would smile at you.

01:20:38.000 And there were, there were people to bring you food and it was like.

01:20:42.000 It was so beautiful.

01:20:43.000 I think I wrote an article that was like, Florida is a paradise of freedom.

01:20:48.000 I'm pretty sure that's what I called it.

01:20:50.000 And then I had to go back to New York, and I was just like, oh, God, no, why?

01:20:53.000 And West Virginia.

01:20:55.000 I think the issue with coming to Florida... I like West Virginia.

01:20:58.000 Florida was... I'm a new fan.

01:21:01.000 Yeah, West Virginia is great.

01:21:02.000 Florida was dense.

01:21:03.000 Now, Florida is dense.

01:21:05.000 And so you had this dense urban environment that people who live in cities like, and descendants are like, you get your freedom.

01:21:11.000 So all of a sudden, people who like living in cities are like, you got to be in Florida.

01:21:14.000 West Virginia has freedom, but it's because you're in the middle of an empty field.

01:21:18.000 Which I love.

01:21:19.000 Because there's nowhere around to oppress you.

01:21:23.000 Your neighbors all far away will be like, I don't care what you're doing.

01:21:26.000 And you're like, me neither.

01:21:27.000 I kind of love that.

01:21:28.000 I don't care.

01:21:29.000 I think that's brilliant.

01:21:31.000 Yeah, I like West Virginia.

01:21:34.000 For the most part, I don't think there's any lockdowns in West Virginia.

01:21:37.000 I'm not sure.

01:21:37.000 Not when we were here.

01:21:38.000 How would anyone come find you?

01:21:39.000 They had masks, though.

01:21:41.000 There were masks in L.A.

01:21:42.000 again, apparently.

01:21:43.000 Oh, yeah.

01:21:43.000 OK, but L.A.

01:21:44.000 is stupid. 1.00

01:21:45.000 I know, and sadly, I live there. 1.00

01:21:48.000 Yeah, well, I live in New York City.

01:21:49.000 There's people walking around in masks.

01:21:51.000 But you know what we really have?

01:21:52.000 We have actually something that's probably stupider than anything you have, which is for a long time after the mask rules were lifted, the mask rules were not lifted on people under five years old.

01:22:03.000 And so sometimes you'll have this. 0.84

01:22:05.000 You'll have, you know, white, over-educated, liberal people walking around New York City with no masks, walking a toddler next to them with a mask on the toddler!

01:22:15.000 Were the kids on leashes?

01:22:17.000 Yes, the kids will be on leashes.

01:22:19.000 They have those little monkey backpack leashes, you know?

01:22:23.000 They're just normalizing bondage.

01:22:24.000 That's just insane.

01:22:25.000 Well, they are doing that.

01:22:26.000 The Washington Post wants us to do that.

01:22:28.000 Remember they ran that article about how important it is to expose your kids to kink at Pride? 0.75

01:22:32.000 Fatherly, actually.

01:22:35.000 I didn't see the Washington Post endorsing Eric Greitens.

01:22:38.000 It was two years ago.

01:22:40.000 It was two years ago that they ran the bring your kids to Show them Kinkett Pride.

01:22:44.000 Show them kink. 0.99

01:22:45.000 Show them kink at pride. 1.00

01:22:46.000 Luke Cheddar saying DeSantis has the advantage over Trump.

01:22:49.000 So if you look at predicted, Trump said it's like 35 DeSantis, 42 Trump.

01:22:54.000 But I think Ron DeSantis has an advantage in that he's actively in government right

01:22:58.000 now.

01:22:59.000 He's campaigning right now, which means he's getting to prove himself.

01:23:02.000 Right now, Trump might announce his presidency early.

01:23:06.000 That's the idea that he's announced at 77.

01:23:07.000 He's been teasing it for a while.

01:23:08.000 Look for it just before Christmas.

01:23:13.000 And he has to because DeSantis is actively campaigning now for his governorship, but this means he gets to campaign actively and be in the press and get a bunch of attention.

01:23:22.000 Trump, if he sits back, he's losing that space to DeSantis.

01:23:25.000 Do you think Newsom is going to try and run?

01:23:27.000 Yes.

01:23:28.000 Oh, God, I hope so.

01:23:29.000 He's second in line on predicted behind Biden, I believe.

01:23:32.000 Really?

01:23:32.000 Yep.

01:23:33.000 What about Kamala?

01:23:36.000 She's remarkable.

01:23:40.000 Another proud day for us, California lawyers.

01:23:43.000 As someone who voted for Trump, I fear Kamala being the candidate. 0.91

01:23:48.000 We must Oh, no, not that!

01:23:52.000 Don't throw me in the Kamala patch!

01:23:55.000 It's funny that I basically said that about Joe Biden, and then Joe Biden won.

01:23:59.000 And so I'm like, you know, we're sitting here talking about Kamala, like, haha, Kamala, and then... She got less than 3% of the vote in the Democratic primary.

01:24:10.000 Well, it's like the Democrats interfering in the Republican primaries.

01:24:13.000 They're like, let's give it, let's give it like 10 million bucks to this super Trumpy guy with MAGA tattooed on his tramp stamp.

01:24:20.000 And yeah, we'll get him.

01:24:22.000 And you know, some of these guys are going to get elected.

01:24:25.000 In a world of $7 gas, you may get a guy, you know, who changed his name to John Q. MAGA.

01:24:32.000 And he may go, you know, this guy seems like a viable candidate here in Colorado.

01:24:37.000 So we'll talk a little bit about that.

01:24:40.000 We'll do one quick segment on this because I published an opinion piece in Newsweek today.

01:24:45.000 The January 6th committee misrepresented me.

01:24:48.000 And I'll give you the quick gist of the story.

01:24:50.000 You guys heard probably the other day that on national television across the board, there's TimCast.

01:24:56.000 They run this clip where there's people saying like, kick the door in, there's gonna be a red wedding.

01:25:00.000 And then in between it's me going, according to Fox News, Donald Trump says there's gonna be a wild protest.

01:25:04.000 It wasn't that, you know, dull, I said.

01:25:07.000 Donald Trump says there's going to be a wild protest, and I think he's right.

01:25:10.000 Considering what we've already seen, I think things will get wild.

01:25:13.000 And then I said this could be Trump's last stand.

01:25:15.000 He's calling on his supporters to come to D.C.

01:25:17.000 They play that together, and then they try and insinuate that I'm encouraging people to take action simply because I'm telling people a thing that happened.

01:25:26.000 So you were just mentioning Oh, about them funding Republicans?

01:25:30.000 talking about, uh, you're talking about the Democrats.

01:25:33.000 I was gonna make a point, but I forgot what you Oh, about them funding Republican.

01:25:36.000 Yes, exactly.

01:25:36.000 That was it.

01:25:37.000 Yes.

01:25:37.000 Democrats are paying in one.

01:25:40.000 So I think in, in, in Colorado is like $30 million to fund pro Trump candidates.

01:25:43.000 Yep.

01:25:44.000 Jamie Raskin.

01:25:45.000 I'm like, why is it that he put a clip of me?

01:25:48.000 Because they need to create an image of a problem to convince people that they are the ones who can oppose that problem.

01:25:55.000 It is demagoguery.

01:25:56.000 It is a lie.

01:25:57.000 The Trump supporters who are getting massive press, it's Democrats funding it.

01:26:02.000 So they can then turn to their voters and say, look, look at that scary thing.

01:26:06.000 Only we can stop it.

01:26:07.000 But they're the ones paying for it.

01:26:09.000 It seems a bit cynical.

01:26:12.000 I wouldn't have expected that of Democrats. 0.96

01:26:15.000 I'd say evil, manipulative, and cult-like. 0.81

01:26:18.000 And it's not gonna work.

01:26:21.000 Remember how the entire media was pushing for Trump for the first time.

01:26:26.000 They thought, he's great for TV, and he'll never win, this is perfect!

01:26:31.000 They loved it.

01:26:34.000 Let me tell you guys something really interesting about this op-ed and the January 6th thing.

01:26:39.000 I have had friends hit me up who had Trump derangement syndrome.

01:26:44.000 Being like, something's not right here.

01:26:45.000 Like, I don't understand what just happened.

01:26:47.000 You're a human red pill. 0.96

01:26:48.000 I've had... Well, the thing is, there are people who follow this show who don't like Donald Trump and know, at the very least, they might not like me, but that I am not what they're trying to claim me to be.

01:27:02.000 Like, putting... The January 6th episode we have was embedded in the Newsweek article, and in it, it's like a whole two and a half hours or whatever, Of a conversation as to why violence doesn't work, why we've always condemned it, why this will make things worse, why it's bad.

01:27:17.000 And then even in the lead up to this in September, I have a video where I'm saying that Black Lives Matter lost all of their support they gained throughout the year by engaging in riots.

01:27:28.000 Don't do this stuff.

01:27:29.000 It doesn't work.

01:27:29.000 It hurts your cause.

01:27:30.000 And then Jamie Raskin, this is really funny by the way, his office is like 30 miles from here because he reps the district right next to us.

01:27:38.000 So I'm gonna go to his office.

01:27:40.000 Probably tomorrow, I'm gonna go knock on the door and be like, hey guys, look, I'm here, you guys lied about me.

01:27:45.000 Hey, you should definitely do that.

01:27:47.000 And definitely bring a camera crew.

01:27:49.000 Ask for an apology.

01:27:50.000 I love this idea.

01:27:51.000 Where's Miss Raskin? 1.00

01:27:52.000 Oh, he's out getting a haircut. 1.00

01:27:53.000 You're a liar! 1.00

01:27:54.000 I know you're a liar now! 1.00

01:27:55.000 Well, he might not be at his office in Maryland, but it's very close. 0.97

01:28:00.000 I'll show up, and I'll leave a note or something.

01:28:02.000 I'll say, hey guys, look, some of my employees are constituents of Representative Raskin, and he is smearing me, my company, and lying for what I believe to be political gain, but maybe I'm wrong about him, and he'll apologize publicly for including me incorrectly in his video.

01:28:20.000 Well, I expect him to take the classy move.

01:28:23.000 And so does my unicorn.

01:28:25.000 That's right.

01:28:26.000 Is that the unicorn that's puking rainbow glitter?

01:28:30.000 His name's Chad.

01:28:31.000 Great.

01:28:32.000 He has a name!

01:28:33.000 I have a feeling I'm going to show up and they're going to say, we don't care.

01:28:37.000 You can't do anything about it.

01:28:39.000 We can say whatever we want and get out.

01:28:41.000 I have a feeling if I show up, they're going to be like, you can't be here.

01:28:43.000 You need to leave.

01:28:44.000 That would be interesting too.

01:28:45.000 Why could you not be there?

01:28:46.000 I'm just standing in your waiting room!

01:28:50.000 Is it wrong to do that?

01:28:52.000 Because I was informed by you that it's okay to come and petition your representative.

01:28:58.000 It is okay.

01:28:59.000 Should I hire like a handful of people just hold signs in front of his office saying he lied?

01:29:03.000 No, I think the diplomatic approach is right.

01:29:06.000 And you can, of course, petition the government for a redress of grievances.

01:29:09.000 At least theoretically.

01:29:10.000 It says it for sure.

01:29:12.000 Well, so the issue with this... But it also says you can keep it bare arms.

01:29:15.000 Well, we've seen how that's gone!

01:29:16.000 That's going great, yeah.

01:29:18.000 No, in New York, they are like, no, we're not going to follow the Supreme Court.

01:29:21.000 And they're starting to... Wow, you know... Yeah, they're trying to say that the entire city of New York is like some sanctuary... A sensitive area.

01:29:28.000 A sensitive area.

01:29:31.000 Bruin opinion specifically says, don't try that trick!

01:29:34.000 You can't do that!

01:29:36.000 You know, it's really remarkable how angry Democrats get after the Supreme Court says you have to stop systematically violating people's rights.

01:29:44.000 And then they launch into massive resistance.

01:29:46.000 That's right.

01:29:46.000 Like, oh, I don't know, Brown versus Board of Education.

01:29:49.000 Bruin!

01:29:50.000 No, yeah.

01:29:50.000 you know uh... funny how they all these people were like uh... there was an op ed

01:29:56.000 that's uh... who was it by i think it might have been politics girl you guys

01:29:59.000 know that is no we we we've invited on the show before by this thing

01:30:02.000 just don't want to do it not surprised and she's like a it's a podcast funded

01:30:06.000 by uh... might as touch

01:30:08.000 all god But she made a very powerful point against gay marriage. 1.00

01:30:13.000 It was kind of crazy.

01:30:14.000 She said that something like the Supreme Court should not be legislating and deciding what is law and what is not law.

01:30:24.000 And then I was like, that would rescind a lot of progressive gains.

01:30:27.000 Well, the Supreme Court actually, the Supreme Court sort of said that recently with the EPA ruling, right?

01:30:32.000 And they said, you know, if Congress wants to do this, Congress has to do this.

01:30:35.000 Right, so what's happened is many people on the left are trying to come up with some kind of sophistry as to why the Supreme Court is wrong.

01:30:43.000 So there's two things.

01:30:44.000 One, the Supreme Court should not arbitrarily decide what the law is.

01:30:48.000 And then it's like, so you agree with the Supreme Court?

01:30:50.000 That's what they said.

01:30:51.000 Then the other issue is they're saying that if the Supreme Court is going to rescind its own precedence, then they're illegitimate.

01:30:59.000 And it's like, now you're advocating for Brownview Board of Education?

01:31:02.000 Oh, and Korematsu?

01:31:04.000 And Dred Scott?

01:31:05.000 Come on! 0.61

01:31:06.000 The Supreme Court's had a lot of bad decisions we get rid of.

01:31:09.000 Yes.

01:31:11.000 Look, we're not having a rational debate here.

01:31:16.000 The left is going to take the position that's most convenient to the left, and it's accumulation of power and money.

01:31:22.000 Does it gain the left power?

01:31:24.000 Yes.

01:31:25.000 Then it's their position.

01:31:25.000 Which is why I don't want to argue with the left.

01:31:27.000 I just want to defeat them.

01:31:29.000 I don't.

01:31:30.000 And that's why I never go to the left with, hey, you know, if Don Jr.

01:31:36.000 had been, you know, if his laptop had been compromised and his, you know, stripper antics, you know, the doing blasting rails off the butt of a Latavian hooker videos had been out there, you'd be treating it differently.

01:31:50.000 I don't do that to the left because they don't care.

01:31:52.000 It doesn't matter.

01:31:53.000 They're immune to hypocrisy because That's not what they're about.

01:31:57.000 They're about power.

01:31:58.000 Normal people, though.

01:32:00.000 Normal people see that and go, huh, that's a problem.

01:32:02.000 So we have to keep making the argument, but the argument needs to go to normal people.

01:32:07.000 As far as the left, it's like, no, you just can't do that.

01:32:09.000 Here's what I'll do.

01:32:11.000 I'll take the twerking old man with the little girl, and I'll do a loop where it plays for and then rewinds, and it'll say, vote Raskin and Flesch, and then I'll hire someone to hold that up in front of his office.

01:32:21.000 Oh, that's a great idea.

01:32:22.000 I like that.

01:32:23.000 Oh my gosh.

01:32:23.000 That's it, that's it, that's it.

01:32:24.000 That's terrific.

01:32:26.000 Raskin celebrates all identities.

01:32:28.000 Just have that down. 0.86

01:32:30.000 I won't tell, I won't say anything about him.

01:32:31.000 I'll just say vote for him.

01:32:32.000 Vote for Raskin.

01:32:34.000 And I'll just hold up.

01:32:35.000 Get more of this.

01:32:36.000 We'll get a bunch of, you know those trucks with the ad TVs on them?

01:32:38.000 Oh my gosh, that would be hilarious.

01:32:40.000 Oh, that's a really good idea actually.

01:32:42.000 With the lights?

01:32:44.000 Those trucks that carry billboards.

01:32:46.000 And then just have it playing the twerking old man.

01:32:49.000 And just get like, should we hire like a hundred of those and have them drive around DC?

01:32:54.000 Vote Jamie Raskin!

01:32:55.000 No, I won't say anything.

01:32:56.000 It'll just show the video.

01:32:58.000 You could definitely do that.

01:32:59.000 It'll say something like Minneapolis Pride and just... That's it.

01:33:03.000 That's all it is.

01:33:04.000 Drive them around.

01:33:05.000 We'll hire... What if we did like... You know, I think to make it impactful you need like a hundred of them.

01:33:10.000 And just have them driving throughout the city.

01:33:12.000 You gotta be careful not to show it to kids because that defeats the message.

01:33:15.000 What do you mean?

01:33:16.000 There's literally a child watching it happen and they're cheering for it and encouraging it.

01:33:19.000 But the point is how bad that was.

01:33:22.000 Fair point.

01:33:22.000 Don't do it again.

01:33:24.000 It is important that people see that, that adults see that and understand what happened.

01:33:27.000 Okay, no, no.

01:33:28.000 Actually, that's an important question.

01:33:30.000 Would they get mad, Ian?

01:33:32.000 Is there something wrong with it?

01:33:34.000 It was on a public Minneapolis street with people cheering as a little girl watched.

01:33:38.000 I don't see anything.

01:33:38.000 Where's her pride, Ian?

01:33:40.000 Maybe just drive it around after hours.

01:33:42.000 But no, no, no.

01:33:43.000 When the parents complain about it, it's exactly the point.

01:33:47.000 Oh, you all have an issue with this in DC?

01:33:49.000 What are you, bigots?

01:33:51.000 I'm literally shaking just thinking about that. 0.79

01:33:56.000 Why are they denying the existence of whatever the hell Tidy Whitey boy is? 1.00

01:34:00.000 Tidy Whitey guy. 1.00

01:34:02.000 Non-binary whatever the hell he is. 1.00

01:34:05.000 There's so many videos of this stuff and that video I think is like the one thing you send to somebody to make them be like, what?

01:34:11.000 I'm still trying to get over the twerking legislator from Rhode Island.

01:34:16.000 Holy cow. 0.89

01:34:17.000 Oh, that was wild.

01:34:17.000 Did you see that?

01:34:18.000 Maybe we can watch that on the after show.

01:34:20.000 That was pretty amazing.

01:34:21.000 It's like, nobody should see that but your gynecologist, all right? 1.00

01:34:24.000 I'm looking it up right now.

01:34:26.000 Oh, no, don't do that.

01:34:27.000 People are allowed to twerk.

01:34:29.000 I don't care.

01:34:29.000 I think when I see that, I'm glad she twerked because I will not support someone who's doing that.

01:34:36.000 I don't care that she does it.

01:34:38.000 She's allowed to do it.

01:34:38.000 It's America, and I'll vote for somebody else.

01:34:40.000 I don't live in Rhode Island, so I really don't care all that much.

01:34:42.000 I do think you should mock her, and that comes back to the tolerance thing.

01:34:47.000 I'm not going to say, it's okay with me.

01:34:49.000 It's not. 1.00

01:34:49.000 It's stupid, and it's gross, and you shouldn't do it. 1.00

01:34:52.000 I'm not going to send the cops to arrest you, because first of all, I don't want them to get PTSD. 1.00

01:34:57.000 But, uh, you know, don't look at me and go, oh, well, you know, you know, you're living your best life.

01:35:03.000 No, you're not.

01:35:04.000 You're living a terrible life and you need to stop.

01:35:06.000 And you need some Jesus, lady. 1.00

01:35:08.000 This is the thing with abortion, right? 0.56

01:35:10.000 I mean, this is the thing with abortion, too.

01:35:11.000 People say, like, I had an abortion and it saved my life.

01:35:14.000 And it's like, no, you had an abortion that saved your lifestyle.

01:35:16.000 And I don't think it was worth saving.

01:35:20.000 All right, we're gonna go to Super Chats.

01:35:21.000 If you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends.

01:35:26.000 Head over to TimCast.com and become a member for the Members Only After Hours show.

01:35:32.000 It is uncensored and often very spicy.

01:35:34.000 Last night was a whole lot of fun, as you'll see on the front page of the website.

01:35:38.000 So yeah, check it out and share the show with your friends, all that good stuff.

01:35:42.000 Like button, like button, and let's see what we got.

01:35:45.000 Alright, what is this?

01:35:46.000 Ricky Longhall says, thoughts on the USDA, Department of Education, IRS, Department of Energy, Inspector General, Fish and Wildlife, Geological Survey, Department of Interior, Railroad Retirement Agency, stockpiling machine guns, shotguns, suppressed pistols, body armor, and ammo.

01:35:58.000 I didn't know any of that.

01:36:00.000 Did you guys know any of that?

01:36:02.000 No.

01:36:02.000 I know the IRS bought hollow points.

01:36:04.000 I did see.

01:36:05.000 You know the funny thing about hollow points?

01:36:07.000 Is that one, they're like for killing.

01:36:11.000 So they hit the body, they expand, so it causes more damage.

01:36:14.000 And I could be wrong about this, but aren't they banned by like the Hague Convention or something?

01:36:18.000 Hague Convention?

01:36:19.000 Yeah, for use in wartime.

01:36:20.000 You're not allowed to have weapons that increase suffering.

01:36:24.000 So you can't have, for instance, a serrated bayonet.

01:36:27.000 Right, you can't have like the double-sided bayonet, right?

01:36:30.000 The double-sided knife.

01:36:32.000 Yeah, I mean, Yeah, right.

01:36:34.000 Yeah.

01:36:35.000 Unless there's a function to it, like white phosphorus.

01:36:38.000 Yeah, there's... Did you know this?

01:36:41.000 That they were stockpiling weapons?

01:36:42.000 I didn't know that.

01:36:43.000 I didn't know that they were buying a lot of ammo.

01:36:46.000 I guess they're buying it now because it's really cheap.

01:36:48.000 No, that ain't it.

01:36:51.000 I saw theories that they were buying it up to drive up the cost so that people wouldn't buy it.

01:36:56.000 I don't know if that's true or not.

01:36:57.000 Maybe.

01:36:57.000 I saw that the IRS was buying a ton.

01:36:59.000 I saw that they didn't have a ton of agents who are armed.

01:37:02.000 Very interesting little rabbit hole to go down.

01:37:04.000 That's weird.

01:37:04.000 Yeah, I was like, why are they buying all this?

01:37:06.000 You know, like your training, whatever else you're doing with it as a kid.

01:37:09.000 Okay, maybe there's nothing here.

01:37:10.000 You know, if we had some oversight from, I don't know, legislators elected by the To go, you know, you're head of the IRS.

01:37:18.000 I got a lot of beefs with you.

01:37:19.000 I got a list.

01:37:19.000 But why are you buying so much ammo?

01:37:21.000 And maybe he has, like, a really good reason.

01:37:23.000 Oh, well, we shoot, they shoot 250 rounds each to qualify a year.

01:37:27.000 Okay, I can live with that.

01:37:29.000 There's probably wild hogs running around.

01:37:31.000 The IRS building.

01:37:32.000 Yeah, the IRS building.

01:37:33.000 So it's really just about the safety of the children who work in the IRS building.

01:37:37.000 I don't think we think enough about the children in regard to armed tax collectors.

01:37:40.000 That's right.

01:37:41.000 All right, we got Nick Koenigs, who said, Tim, since I started eating healthy and running in January, I've already lost 50 plus pounds.

01:37:48.000 Congrats on your weight loss, too.

01:37:49.000 Yeah, the thing is, like, I didn't actually plan on losing weight.

01:37:53.000 I didn't actually care.

01:37:54.000 I just was like, I don't want to eat sugar.

01:37:56.000 You know, we had the keto stuff. 0.82

01:37:58.000 And then I was like, why am I eating this garbage all the time?

01:38:00.000 I'm just not going to eat it.

01:38:01.000 And then just I started losing weight.

01:38:03.000 You talk about a transformation of the nation, man.

01:38:05.000 That's physical.

01:38:07.000 Oh yeah.

01:38:07.000 Look at those, you see those memes from the 1960s?

01:38:09.000 Oh yeah.

01:38:10.000 And like all the dudes are ripped.

01:38:12.000 Everybody's thin.

01:38:13.000 Everyone's thin.

01:38:14.000 The other interesting thing, and look, I'm 57, so it's like pulling teeth to lose weight.

01:38:20.000 I've lost like eight pounds in the last month or so, and it's been agonizing.

01:38:24.000 When I was like 22, if I wanted to lose 10 pounds, all I did was go run for a half hour.

01:38:30.000 Yeah.

01:38:31.000 But here's the thing, so many people in the conservative space do not drink.

01:38:35.000 And it's not high-flying morality stuff.

01:38:38.000 And a lot of them are.

01:38:40.000 Some of them had a problem, but others are like, it just doesn't contribute to my life.

01:38:44.000 Yeah.

01:38:44.000 And that's the majority of it.

01:38:46.000 Drinking is not fashionable among conservatives.

01:38:49.000 It's very odd.

01:38:50.000 The other thing that's interesting, too, is remember Michelle Obama had her whole fitness thing.

01:38:54.000 Her, she had like a whole anti-obesity thing and now the left is like, obesity is beautiful.

01:39:01.000 The sugar industry, the original, Michelle Obama's original Let's Move campaign was get sugar out of your diet.

01:39:05.000 And then the sugar industry came in and was like, there's a documentary called Fed Up with Katie Couric that exploits this.

01:39:11.000 And they were like, let's make it an exercise campaign.

01:39:13.000 Forget about the diet.

01:39:14.000 And then they turned it into an exercise and then, but they kept eating it.

01:39:17.000 All right.

01:39:18.000 Greg says, your weight loss is pretty obvious watching the IRL clips.

01:39:21.000 Can see the difference between the clip and your outro clip.

01:39:24.000 We're going to record a new outro clip.

01:39:26.000 Oh, that's a good reminder.

01:39:28.000 That's great.

01:39:29.000 We should do that after the show.

01:39:30.000 I didn't even realize that.

01:39:30.000 I was like, oh yeah, we have like an old outro.

01:39:32.000 I was like, thanks for watching, and I'm probably just like... How was that long ago?

01:39:35.000 I guess the idea of having a theme song from Sir Mix-a-Lot is now out.

01:39:38.000 Yeah, we're not allowed to use it anymore.

01:39:39.000 We're not doing that.

01:39:40.000 No, you can't do it.

01:39:41.000 Okay.

01:39:42.000 Tim got back.

01:39:43.000 All right.

01:39:44.000 JTTV says, please continue advocating for the health of bodies and pushing critical thinking for the individual instead of the monolith of absolute degenerate destructive nonsense that has plagued this nation for decades.

01:39:54.000 God bless.

01:39:55.000 I tell you this, I think it might have been Cernovich who said this, that if you really want to win and get back at the left or whatever, exercise, eat healthy, focus on yourself, make money, have a family.

01:40:04.000 Yeah, people even in a call, people will see beauty and health and they're drawn to it. 0.59

01:40:08.000 Well, I find it so annoying because like, I always feel better if I if I work out and I'm always like, Damn, I feel terrible.

01:40:14.000 I better work out.

01:40:15.000 That's so annoying.

01:40:19.000 It's funny.

01:40:19.000 I really just want to sit on the couch and watch Star Trek.

01:40:23.000 It's funny you mentioned Cernovich.

01:40:24.000 I happened to see him at a wedding a couple weeks ago.

01:40:26.000 Oh, cool.

01:40:27.000 And he looked great and was happy.

01:40:30.000 Yeah.

01:40:30.000 I mean, he was just a happy guy.

01:40:34.000 And I mean, you know, if you followed Serge Sernovich's career, he was not always a happy guy.

01:40:39.000 But he's happy now.

01:40:41.000 He's transformed his life.

01:40:41.000 He's explored psychedelics.

01:40:43.000 He's, I mean, he's transformed his life.

01:40:45.000 Yeah.

01:40:45.000 He's, I mean, he's gone on an interesting, uh, arc.

01:40:49.000 Yeah.

01:40:49.000 I mean, he's actually become a different person.

01:40:52.000 I think he's a much happier person, and he shares his advice with people, and maybe you agree with him, maybe you don't, but he has.

01:40:57.000 All right.

01:40:58.000 We got Emily Williams says, I feel like Ian is that hippie friend you pick up at the local farmer's market that everyone thinks is high all the time, but just knows way more about weird stuff.

01:41:08.000 Oh.

01:41:08.000 That seems about right.

01:41:09.000 That's actually true.

01:41:10.000 That's what I was going for.

01:41:11.000 I'm pretty sure that's it.

01:41:12.000 I think that's it.

01:41:13.000 Wow.

01:41:13.000 Mission accomplished.

01:41:14.000 Yeah.

01:41:15.000 People think Ian's, but he's not.

01:41:17.000 He just reads the weird stuff.

01:41:19.000 He just knows weird stuff.

01:41:20.000 Yeah.

01:41:21.000 That's cool.

01:41:21.000 I just like to think.

01:41:22.000 When you were a kid, did you ever have other kids go, how come you know things?

01:41:27.000 Uh, but they would just, they would lash out.

01:41:29.000 Well, I was the kid that would raise my hand for every answer the teacher would ask.

01:41:32.000 Cause they already gave me the answer.

01:41:33.000 I just got to tell them.

01:41:34.000 And the other kids would, would take it out on me later.

01:41:36.000 I didn't know why.

01:41:37.000 Like, why don't they like me? 1.00

01:41:38.000 It's cause I would make them, I guess they felt like idiots. 0.99

01:41:40.000 Cause I was like, come on guys, move it along. 0.99

01:41:42.000 Move the story along.

01:41:44.000 I couldn't figure out why all the kids hated me.

01:41:46.000 I was merciless.

01:41:47.000 I was telling you this yesterday.

01:41:48.000 I was mercilessly bullied.

01:41:49.000 I know why. 1.00

01:41:50.000 I was a giant jerk. 0.99

01:41:51.000 Now and then I would raise my hand, but mostly I was just like not ever paying. 1.00

01:41:55.000 I was always like just looking at something else.

01:41:58.000 My attention was somewhere it wasn't supposed to be.

01:42:01.000 It's vulnerability.

01:42:02.000 People will sometimes attack vulnerability.

01:42:04.000 It's like a wild tiger with fresh meat.

01:42:06.000 Like leftists.

01:42:07.000 Alright, I want to read this one.

01:42:08.000 Lars Job says, My 98-year-old grandpa was found of multiple tumors, and he has almost stopped eating, and we believe he's near the end.

01:42:14.000 He lived a good life and is a World War II vet, the last surviving member of the Alamo Scouts.

01:42:19.000 If you know a veteran, thank them for their service.

01:42:22.000 Wow.

01:42:23.000 shout out to your grandfather.

01:42:24.000 I wish I knew his name.

01:42:25.000 I want to shout his name out.

01:42:26.000 That's what a hero freaking cool.

01:42:28.000 You know, you got to these these young Americans that I got to serve with, you know, they are truly walking in the bootsteps of heroes.

01:42:37.000 But they are great themselves. 0.89

01:42:38.000 I'm so impressed by our young soldiers that I worked with and you know, the the occasional weirdo black. 1.00

01:42:45.000 I really gotta shout out Haunted Autumn who said, Are we going to ignore the fact that Tim is wearing the same shirt as last episode?

01:42:52.000 More power to you, but dude, we noticed.

01:42:54.000 I really love that because the last episode I was wearing a Vans Pocket Raglan tee with print on it, and the day before I wore this shirt, whereas typically I wear literally the same thing every single day.

01:43:09.000 So it's like the one time I don't wear something, they think I do.

01:43:12.000 Come on, man.

01:43:13.000 All right.

01:43:14.000 You're being Raskind again. 1.00

01:43:16.000 Yeah.

01:43:16.000 Nikki Hilly says, long time supporter, just found Cast Castle and I'm obsessed.

01:43:20.000 Can't stop watching it.

01:43:21.000 Reminds me of Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory.

01:43:23.000 Keep up the amazing work.

01:43:25.000 Yes.

01:43:26.000 The Cast Castle is basically going to be like a hybrid between a vlog and a sitcom where we're basically making fun of culture war concepts and issues and, you know, poking fun at all this stuff.

01:43:36.000 So I think I think it's pretty fun, and we're excited to expand it.

01:43:39.000 But it's a learning process.

01:43:41.000 We start making episodes, we see what works, we see what's funny, and then we just make it better and better and better until it gets really good.

01:43:46.000 And shout out to Jamie the Animal Kilstein.

01:43:49.000 The Animal?

01:43:49.000 Yeah.

01:43:50.000 Taking it to the top.

01:43:50.000 That's great.

01:43:52.000 He's running the vlog right now.

01:43:53.000 He's running Cast Castle.

01:43:55.000 All right.

01:43:56.000 Peter Nguyen says, right now there's an echo chamber on Twitch.

01:44:00.000 The younger generation is getting so much leftist propaganda and apolitical streamers are being influenced by people like Hassan.

01:44:06.000 You need to build culture there.

01:44:07.000 You can't!

01:44:08.000 They will ban you for the slightest thing.

01:44:11.000 Destiny said Kyle Rittenhouse was the clearest cut case of self-defense he'd ever seen, and they actually, they call it a ban, but it's like a suspension.

01:44:19.000 So simply for asserting a fact, not even a political opinion, it's like, oh yeah, I watched the video, that was self-defense.

01:44:24.000 They're like, you're out.

01:44:25.000 That's Twitch for you.

01:44:26.000 So, nah, not interested.

01:44:28.000 Although, maybe for fun, we'll simulcast on Twitch for a week to see how long it takes to get banned.

01:44:33.000 You can't simulcast on Twitch.

01:44:34.000 Well, you can't be a partner on Twitch and simulcast.

01:44:36.000 They'll end your partnership.

01:44:37.000 It's in their terms.

01:44:38.000 It's very strange.

01:44:39.000 There's software that will let you do it, but Twitch doesn't want it, I guess.

01:44:43.000 Weird.

01:44:43.000 Yeah, it's disappointing.

01:44:45.000 I'd be on Twitch if otherwise.

01:44:48.000 Tyler McFarlane says, T-bones are the superior steak.

01:44:51.000 You get a tenderloin and New York strip in one package.

01:44:54.000 FJB.

01:44:56.000 I agree with all of it, actually, especially the FJB part.

01:44:59.000 Yeah, I had a T-bone and you got the tenderloin on one side and then you got the strip on the other.

01:45:04.000 But I just, you know, it is true.

01:45:07.000 It's like, choose one.

01:45:08.000 Commit.

01:45:08.000 But yo, just tenderloin, filet mignon, just mmm.

01:45:12.000 My wife is a filet mignon person. 0.52

01:45:14.000 She likes it.

01:45:15.000 Who doesn't?

01:45:16.000 Who's not a filet mignon person?

01:45:18.000 I'd be a filet mignon person if filet mignon was showing up in my plate every day.

01:45:23.000 Sometimes I'm in a ribeye place, sometimes I'm in a New York place.

01:45:26.000 True, and I will say, it's a different experience.

01:45:29.000 Like, brisket?

01:45:30.000 You can't even compare brisket to filet mignon.

01:45:32.000 They're different things.

01:45:33.000 Yeah, it's a different thing.

01:45:34.000 Oh, I love brisket.

01:45:35.000 The best brisket I had was in Austin just recently with Hannah Nightingale, who's my U.S. 1.00

01:45:40.000 news editor.

01:45:41.000 We had the best night and she kept making fun of me because every bite I took I was like, oh my god.

01:45:46.000 I was like, are you okay?

01:45:48.000 No, no, I'm not okay.

01:45:49.000 Nature's perfect food.

01:45:51.000 We can just be.

01:45:51.000 It was so sublime.

01:45:53.000 There was the sauce.

01:45:54.000 They like put the sauce on it.

01:45:56.000 We can talk all day about abortion and politics.

01:46:01.000 We can talk about the Democrats and law enforcement and Trump on January 6th.

01:46:04.000 No, no, no, no, no.

01:46:05.000 When people can't get their brisket, they're going to kick doors in.

01:46:08.000 They're going to be screaming and banging their heads on walls.

01:46:12.000 It's going to be chaos.

01:46:13.000 That is true.

01:46:14.000 You know, here's how weird this whole situation has got.

01:46:17.000 I did a speaking gig to a bunch of Republicans at a country club.

01:46:21.000 And they said, it's sold out.

01:46:23.000 This is great.

01:46:23.000 I walk in, half the room does not have tables up.

01:46:26.000 And I'm like, couldn't you put more tables up and sell them?

01:46:29.000 They said, we'd love to.

01:46:30.000 And the country club would have loved to.

01:46:32.000 They could not guarantee to get enough chicken breasts to feed the people.

01:46:37.000 Wow.

01:46:37.000 Justin Clark says, remember when Cartman's mom tried to make a 37th trimester abortion legal?

01:46:43.000 when you have rationing that makes that is that that's what the democrats expect

01:46:46.000 us to to to accept you think you know i think i put together some

01:46:50.000 cricket patty yeah yeah i think that yes didn't get a salmon chicken

01:46:54.000 bogan but yeah justin clark says remember when cartman's mom try to make

01:46:58.000 a thirty seventh trimester abortion legal hard to distinguish reality from

01:47:02.000 satire as you discussed recently that that's not really satire there was a

01:47:07.000 Andy Ngo shared this with me.

01:47:08.000 There was some Antifa woman in Oregon who was bragging about getting an abortion at seven months. 1.00

01:47:14.000 Like the baby was seven months old?

01:47:15.000 No, in her womb.

01:47:17.000 No, this is 37th trimester.

01:47:19.000 Oh, 37th trimester.

01:47:20.000 Yeah, he's like nine years older.

01:47:23.000 You said 37th trimester and I heard 37 weeks.

01:47:25.000 That would have been yowl.

01:47:31.000 I mean, sure, kids can be a pain, but really?

01:47:36.000 All right, let's grab some.

01:47:37.000 What do we got here?

01:47:38.000 Let's find a good one.

01:47:39.000 There was a good one I saw a moment ago.

01:47:40.000 Where did it go?

01:47:41.000 Yeah, these super chats are great.

01:47:42.000 You guys are awesome.

01:47:43.000 Man, look at all those comments.

01:47:45.000 Yeah, Cabbage says, Tim K is my favorite thing to listen to at work.

01:47:47.000 I just became a member and I often delay, so I have enough to get through the day.

01:47:51.000 We need an app.

01:47:52.000 I know!

01:47:53.000 Yo, it's like the website's been up for like a year and a half and it's only been in the form it's been in for like 10 months with like channels and new shows.

01:48:04.000 We can only go as fast as humans can go.

01:48:06.000 That's the hard thing.

01:48:07.000 So sign up, become a member if you want to support our work.

01:48:10.000 We got a ton of stuff going on.

01:48:11.000 We're going to be doing a big marketing campaign for Tales from the Inverted World because if you guys haven't seen it, man, go to youtube.com slash tales from the inverted world, search for it.

01:48:20.000 The latest episode's 40 minutes, and it is, like, Hunter S. Thompson meets the X-Files, but it's a real story.

01:48:28.000 Shane Cashman went down to Georgia to look for the lost Confederate gold, and he tells the story of what it was like, and it was creepy, he met crazy people, witches, someone threatened to kill him.

01:48:38.000 No joke.

01:48:38.000 Because it's, like, people don't realize that history of the Civil War runs deep in these towns.

01:48:44.000 The town where Jefferson dissolved the Confederacy?

01:48:47.000 They still feel all of that.

01:48:49.000 And so he shows up and someone left him a voicemail like they were going to kill him if he didn't stop trying to find out where this gold was.

01:48:55.000 And they're UFOs because there's military research stuff going on and people come out and they see these weird things in the sky.

01:49:00.000 So it's really cool stuff.

01:49:01.000 It's like real life X-Files almost.

01:49:04.000 So we're going to be doing a big push for that because the episodes have just gotten so amazing.

01:49:07.000 Production quality has been upped dramatically.

01:49:10.000 The episodes are going to be upwards of an hour long each.

01:49:12.000 We've got, I think, 10 episodes this season.

01:49:13.000 And then we're going to be launching another show with Shane where he's going to do a weekly conversation show about weird, wild stories.

01:49:19.000 And that will just be the consistent conversation that happens when the seasonal shows are in production.

01:49:26.000 You said when Jefferson ended the Confederacy?

01:49:29.000 Jefferson Davis?

01:49:29.000 Yeah.

01:49:30.000 It was funny because it was his first name.

01:49:31.000 You're on a first name basis.

01:49:35.000 I thought he meant the Jeffersons moving on up.

01:49:37.000 Not Thomas Jefferson, that's for sure.

01:49:39.000 Sherman Hemsley.

01:49:41.000 Sherman, great actor, by the way.

01:49:43.000 Oh, classic.

01:49:44.000 Used to watch that as a kid.

01:49:46.000 And on The Family, which of course could not ever be made today because it's just... It was just such a good show.

01:49:53.000 Sometimes I remember 227 because of how much Pearl loved Luther Vandross.

01:49:57.000 Have you heard of DrivenBillboards.net?

01:49:59.000 It's mobile billboards that go wherever you want.

01:50:01.000 I think it might be perfect for your advertising campaign.

01:50:03.000 You know Pearl was my favorite character her social security number was

01:50:07.000 She loved Luther Vandross Steve McQueen says have you heard of driven billboards net? It's a mobile

01:50:14.000 It's mobile billboards that go wherever you want. I think it might be perfect for your advertising campaign. I think

01:50:18.000 so, too Steve McQueen

01:50:22.000 billboards, I'll I will look into that and let's see if these companies are going to be like, yo, I'm not putting that video on my truck.

01:50:30.000 And I'll be like, why not?

01:50:31.000 Why not?

01:50:32.000 What's wrong with it?

01:50:33.000 Why not?

01:50:33.000 Are you a transphobe?

01:50:34.000 Take the money.

01:50:37.000 All right.

01:50:38.000 OMG Puppy says, why don't they just say Latin, a perfectly acceptable adjective that's long been used to refer to Hispanics?

01:50:44.000 Which is strange because they're not Latin.

01:50:47.000 Latin is a language that's no longer in use.

01:50:50.000 It's Latin roots, but so is France.

01:50:52.000 But French and Romanian are also romance languages.

01:50:56.000 It's Portuguese.

01:50:58.000 um yeah i i just love it you know my my wife of course immigrated from cuba and the only way i could make her more annoyed uh than calling her latinx is if i did it wearing a chay t-shirt Oh, nice. 0.96

01:51:12.000 Anthony Floor says, I can see myself 20 years from now watching Ian come out on TimCast IRL as a reformed Catholic, and it would be the greatest character arc of all time.

01:51:22.000 All right, you got me.

01:51:24.000 Trad Cath Ian.

01:51:26.000 Him and Matt Walsh.

01:51:28.000 He's like, Matt, you're not cutting it.

01:51:29.000 Jesus, that would be a good sitcom.

01:51:30.000 His hair is cut short, he's shaved, he's wearing a button-up shirt, he looks just like Seamus.

01:51:34.000 I come in and Matt's ripping the bong.

01:51:35.000 I'm like, what's happening to you, man?

01:51:38.000 That would actually be funny if like we did a bit where it's like 10 years in the future and Seamus has long hair and he's just like, I don't know about all that.

01:51:44.000 He kind of looks like Jesus from the pictures.

01:51:47.000 No, but it's like long hair and he's like an atheist, secular hippie.

01:51:49.000 And then like you become Catlin and you have like a suit on like Seamus, you need to come back.

01:51:53.000 And he's like, I don't, I don't know, man.

01:51:55.000 I don't understand you.

01:51:56.000 That'd be funny.

01:51:58.000 All right, there was a super chat I wanted to see, but someone mentioned sending that video to their mom.

01:52:04.000 Maybe I'll find it.

01:52:05.000 DBZDragon says, Tim, I recommend you and the group look up Peter Boghossian.

01:52:08.000 He's a former Portland State professor of philosophy, and his work on street epistemology is worth the look.

01:52:14.000 We are good friends with Peter.

01:52:15.000 He's rad.

01:52:17.000 I periodically talk to him.

01:52:18.000 I've interviewed him before.

01:52:20.000 We've, yeah.

01:52:22.000 Cool, dude.

01:52:23.000 We should have him on the show.

01:52:24.000 I don't know what his schedule's like.

01:52:25.000 He's a very, very busy man.

01:52:26.000 Very busy man.

01:52:27.000 Yeah, we can try.

01:52:28.000 Very busy man.

01:52:29.000 Get busy on IRL.

01:52:31.000 Yeah, be busy.

01:52:32.000 It's good, huh?

01:52:32.000 You just need to come all the way across the country.

01:52:34.000 It's no big deal.

01:52:34.000 That's all.

01:52:36.000 All right, let's see.

01:52:38.000 Canis Vulpes says, just got out of the military.

01:52:40.000 Here is some tax money back.

01:52:41.000 Driving from NC to AZ.

01:52:43.000 Thanks for making this trip more enjoyable.

01:52:45.000 Hey, appreciate it, man.

01:52:46.000 All right.

01:52:46.000 Cool.

01:52:47.000 When you go through the Grand Canyon, if you get near there, it gets really cold.

01:52:50.000 Have you ever noticed, ever driven past the Grand Canyon?

01:52:52.000 Is it cold?

01:52:53.000 I think all the heat's falling into the canyon.

01:52:54.000 Heat rises!

01:52:57.000 Usually, yeah.

01:52:57.000 You would think.

01:52:58.000 But it's like hitting the ground and then rising up above the base of the canyon.

01:53:01.000 I only went to the Grand Canyon once and it was the X-Files series finale.

01:53:06.000 That's awesome.

01:53:07.000 And we had all this, well, we thought we had all this weed, but it kind of got lost at the airport.

01:53:12.000 Anyway, it was a fun trip.

01:53:14.000 It was a fun trip.

01:53:15.000 Wow.

01:53:16.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:53:17.000 Watch out for black guys. 1.00

01:53:18.000 EO2 Dave says, Trump drained the water from the swamp and exposed the creatures. 0.99

01:53:23.000 Quite the achievement considering all the snakes and It is a fair point.

01:53:27.000 He may not have emptied the swamp, but he did do a little and all of a sudden we could see a lot being exposed.

01:53:33.000 Shout out to our good enemy, John Bolton.

01:53:36.000 I'll make the joke about good friends for a lot of people, but not him.

01:53:40.000 Coming on TV and outright saying, like, I've staged coup d'etat in many countries.

01:53:44.000 Go on.

01:53:44.000 And then Frum was like, he shouldn't post jokes.

01:53:47.000 I know, Frum's like, eh, stay on the oop-kay!

01:53:53.000 Yo, but it's like all of the stuff that was supposedly a secret is just coming out in the open now after Trump.

01:53:59.000 Bolton's like, yeah, I did it.

01:54:00.000 And everyone's like, wow.

01:54:01.000 Well, you know, at one point secrets mattered because, you know, you'd have a media that would expose them.

01:54:07.000 And now it's like you got Hunter Biden. 0.97

01:54:11.000 You know, showing off the whole butcher shop, you know, walking around, weighing the crack, got the hookers. 1.00

01:54:20.000 The nice thing is, you know, people are like, oh, this is a terrible security breach.

01:54:23.000 No, it isn't!

01:54:25.000 Because there's nothing you can do to blackmail this guy.

01:54:28.000 What do the Chinese have to do? 0.99

01:54:30.000 We have the real dirt on you.

01:54:33.000 What are you going to do? 0.99

01:54:35.000 Three hookers at a time? 1.00

01:54:37.000 All right, Scallywag Swagger says hollow points aren't banned, that's a lie.

01:54:41.000 They expand to stop overpenetration and collateral life loss.

01:54:45.000 You talk about DeSantis but seem to forget he signed red flag laws.

01:54:48.000 Ooh, is that true?

01:54:49.000 Don't forget, I don't forget that, it is true.

01:54:51.000 He did that?

01:54:51.000 Yeah.

01:54:51.000 Really?

01:54:52.000 He might start coming just like any other politician.

01:54:53.000 And Trump banned bump stocks.

01:54:56.000 Trump said, I like taking the guns first and then going to the courts or whatever.

01:54:59.000 If only we had some sort of process where we could question the candidate before deciding if they were finally a nominee.

01:55:05.000 What do you think?

01:55:06.000 I wonder what that would be.

01:55:07.000 That would be amazing.

01:55:08.000 That would be really interesting.

01:55:09.000 We might want to institute something like that.

01:55:11.000 Also, I had a similar notion.

01:55:13.000 Yesterday, somebody was saying, well, how are we going to know what the framers said?

01:55:18.000 If only there was some means of- I wonder if there was maybe a document.

01:55:21.000 Perhaps they would have written it down.

01:55:23.000 A way to permanently etch your thoughts in some media.

01:55:26.000 And maybe they would have written down additionally things they thought about

01:55:30.000 the things they wrote down in the first place.

01:55:31.000 I wonder- Would have been so useful.

01:55:33.000 Maybe 81 of them.

01:55:35.000 Are there 81?

01:55:37.000 Aren't there 81 Federalist Papers?

01:55:39.000 I think so, yeah.

01:55:40.000 Jason, there are a couple lesser Federalist Papers.

01:55:43.000 I'm only getting that from Hamilton.

01:55:45.000 I only remember that from Hamilton.

01:55:46.000 Alexander Hamilton wrote the other 51.

01:55:49.000 Where they compare and fight over Star Trek versus Star Wars.

01:55:53.000 Those are the really key ones.

01:55:55.000 The lesser known ones with kind of esoteric conflicts.

01:55:59.000 Jason D says, draining the swamp did not rid us of the monsters, it exposed the monsters.

01:56:03.000 And in that, Trump certainly succeeded.

01:56:05.000 Again, again, fair point, fair point.

01:56:07.000 Same point.

01:56:08.000 All right, Daniel Spratt says, look into Lure.

01:56:11.000 Is that what it's called?

01:56:12.000 Lure?

01:56:13.000 Building a streaming service with non-woke content.

01:56:15.000 Marcus Pittman is the guy behind it.

01:56:17.000 How do you spell that?

01:56:18.000 Does it say Lure?

01:56:19.000 It's like L-O-O-R, I think. 1.00

01:56:22.000 Lure.

01:56:23.000 It's like the text is really small.

01:56:24.000 I thought it'd be L-U-R-E. 1.00

01:56:25.000 Lure.tv.

01:56:26.000 Maybe it's Lure.tv.

01:56:27.000 Yeah, is that it?

01:56:30.000 85.

01:56:30.000 They were 85.

01:56:31.000 They're 85?

01:56:31.000 85 Federalist Papers.

01:56:32.000 Okay.

01:56:32.000 I know Hamilton wrote 51.

01:56:33.000 All right.

01:56:34.000 Oh, wow.

01:56:35.000 John Jay wrote 8, I think.

01:56:37.000 And J.K.

01:56:38.000 Rowling wrote two.

01:56:39.000 I'm sure, yes.

01:56:40.000 Sounds right.

01:56:40.000 Yes.

01:56:41.000 Russ says, any comment about the Ray Epps Washington Post story?

01:56:44.000 His reasoning seems plausible.

01:56:45.000 I didn't see it.

01:56:46.000 What was it?

01:56:46.000 Did anybody see it?

01:56:47.000 I did not.

01:56:48.000 I can comment on it.

01:56:49.000 There was a Times one.

01:56:50.000 It was the New York Times.

01:56:51.000 And they said, you know, here's this victim.

01:56:53.000 Yeah.

01:56:54.000 And it's like... A guy who's on video telling people to engage in entering the Capitol is a victim, and me, a guy who read the news, is included in this video montage by Raskin.

01:57:07.000 Reading the news is treason.

01:57:09.000 Yes, you have correctly assessed the situation. 0.93

01:57:12.000 Yeah, these people are duplicitous, deceitful, and...

01:57:16.000 You know, I am unhappy with the representation that he is bringing forth in Montgomery County in Maryland, where many of my employees actually live.

01:57:26.000 He's Montgomery.

01:57:27.000 It surrounds Frederick.

01:57:29.000 Twerking for liberty. 1.00

01:57:32.000 That's what you need to do.

01:57:36.000 All right.

01:57:37.000 There was that one I wanted to find.

01:57:38.000 Someone mentioned, uh, I don't want to culturally appropriate his twerking.

01:57:42.000 Exactly.

01:57:43.000 You gotta be careful with that.

01:57:44.000 Waffle Sensei says Trump will give the left the ammunition they need to hurt DeSantis because Trump is a comedian.

01:57:49.000 Trump needs to walk away, but he won't.

01:57:51.000 The poll said 94% of Democrats will vote against Trump again.

01:57:54.000 That's true.

01:57:55.000 No, that's, that is true.

01:57:57.000 But then again, look, Trump's saying he's going to run.

01:58:00.000 people around him say he's gonna run.

01:58:02.000 Trump doesn't know whether he's gonna run or not.

01:58:04.000 He's Trump.

01:58:05.000 Oh, he's running.

01:58:06.000 He really wants to.

01:58:07.000 He could.

01:58:08.000 You remember how he keeps saying, I'm gonna make an announcement,

01:58:09.000 you're gonna be very happy.

01:58:11.000 He wrote that note.

01:58:11.000 The note says, Kurt, you'll be very happy with me.

01:58:13.000 Oh my God.

01:58:14.000 You'll be happy with what you see.

01:58:15.000 He says that all the time.

01:58:16.000 Of course I framed it.

01:58:17.000 Well, sure, why not?

01:58:18.000 On a big gold frame.

01:58:19.000 A garish frame, yeah.

01:58:20.000 A garish gold frame.

01:58:22.000 He's an interesting cat, and I gotta say, I miss the entertainment value.

01:58:27.000 It was fun.

01:58:28.000 But it's been seven years, and it's a legit question.

01:58:31.000 He came down the aisle and said, it's a legit question.

01:58:33.000 Is the Trump Act still the best way forward for us?

01:58:37.000 Yeah, you mentioned his lack of discipline.

01:58:40.000 We're talking about posing a military commander.

01:58:43.000 It's gotta be the most disciplined, I believe, of the choices.

01:58:46.000 It helps.

01:58:47.000 We haven't had a disciplined president in a really long time.

01:58:50.000 That's true.

01:58:52.000 I mean, Bush was probably into discipline, but that's personal life.

01:58:57.000 That's a different kind of thing.

01:58:59.000 He always seemed like a guy who probably, you don't want to know what he's going on behind closed doors.

01:59:03.000 And Laura always has that little smile.

01:59:06.000 Laura was stern and unforgiving.

01:59:09.000 Unyielding.

01:59:11.000 Laura Ashley dresses.

01:59:14.000 Wear something conservative.

01:59:16.000 I want you to look like you're going to church on Easter.

01:59:19.000 Oh my gosh, yeah.

01:59:21.000 It's hot.

01:59:23.000 You too are bad at this.

01:59:25.000 There we go.

01:59:27.000 It's the Kurt Libby show.

01:59:28.000 Yeah, I love it.

01:59:30.000 I'm looking for a super jet, that's why.

01:59:33.000 In the meantime, buy my book, people.

01:59:34.000 Yeah, where can people get that?

01:59:36.000 We'll be back.

01:59:37.000 Well, I'm glad you asked that, Ian.

01:59:39.000 You can get We'll Be Back, The Fall and Rise of America at Amazon or Barnes & Noble or your fine purveyor of fine books.

01:59:47.000 And I want to emphasize, it is not a baton death march of people going, you know, as Locke used to say, well, Hobbes pointed out, it is not that.

01:59:54.000 Did you do an audiobook version?

01:59:57.000 They wanted me to, but I said, look, no one wants to listen to me for eight hours.

02:00:02.000 I don't think anybody wants to listen to me for two hours.

02:00:04.000 I think they might.

02:00:04.000 The guy driving from North Carolina to Arizona.

02:00:07.000 Oh, yeah.

02:00:08.000 That poor guy might drive him off the road.

02:00:10.000 If his annoying nasal voice doesn't stop, I'm going to find myself at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.

02:00:16.000 That's perfect.

02:00:17.000 I can't find that.

02:00:18.000 There was one I really wanted to read.

02:00:19.000 Someone said that they sent the video to their, like, aunt or something.

02:00:23.000 Oh, I saw that, yeah.

02:00:24.000 She changed her tune.

02:00:25.000 They responded with, like, okay, this is weird, this stuff's, like, nonsense, and it opened the door to conversation.

02:00:29.000 That's right.

02:00:30.000 Oh, I wish I saw that.

02:00:30.000 That's cool.

02:00:31.000 The key to ending the political conflict in this country is one man, a hero, as it were, who put everything upon his shoulders, twerking fat men in tighty-whities.

02:00:40.000 Oh my gosh.

02:00:40.000 Wouldn't it be great if he was, like, a giant MAGA guy?

02:00:46.000 He's like, I work in HVAC.

02:00:49.000 I went out to twerk because I knew I would be the red pill.

02:00:54.000 I will jump on the grenade.

02:00:55.000 A single tear comes from his eyes.

02:00:57.000 He takes all his pills.

02:00:59.000 Someone's got to do it.

02:02:04.000 Get the book! 0.98

02:02:05.000 Like I said, I would like Regnery to release my family.

02:02:13.000 But we're not going to go down that road again.

02:02:59.000 And I wanted to say before we go that you're not going to change the minds of hardcore leftists, but you might change the minds of people who haven't seen, for example, Trump's whole speech where he talked about the quote, verifying people and stuff like that.

02:03:12.000 People who watch the full context, often their minds are changed like that super chat that we did not have a chance to get to.

02:03:17.000 Very important.

02:03:18.000 It is possible.

02:03:19.000 Give people the full context and be patient with them.
