On today's show, we have Ryan James Gerduski, a political consultant and writer, join us to talk about the police shooting of Andrew Brown in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, and the possibility of a Black Lives Matter riot in Philadelphia.
00:00:30.000It has been ruled that the shooting was justified, so of course this is not working out for Black Lives Matter protesters.
00:00:35.000They're already protesting in the city.
00:00:37.000Still light out, so we'll see what ends up happening.
00:00:40.000I don't want to say there will be riots, so it's just right now protests, but I think Look, there's going to be a weekend, and usually on the weekends is when things get really raucous.
00:03:03.000Issues like that, immigration, the degeneration of the West, opening up to China, all those people who sat there and said, no, this is going to be what's going to bring mass prosperity and you're going to love it, you know, middle America.
00:03:47.000I'm really looking forward to this conversation.
00:03:49.000It's gonna be fun and funny and we'll learn a lot.
00:03:52.000But before we get started, head over to timcast.com and click the Members Only button to become a member and you will get access to the Members Only area where we will have an exclusive segment coming up after the show just for all of you special members.
00:04:04.000We have set this up In the event that we get banned, but more importantly, because we want to grow and expand, produce more content.
00:04:57.000I think it's gonna heat up a lot of people, get them really angry, but I'm just... I don't know how many times I can hear a story about, you know, cop-involved shooting, Black Lives Matter is angry, demanding reform.
00:05:07.000Even after Black Lives Matter has actually won on all of these different cases, they just keep going.
00:05:19.000District attorney said the officers were justified in using deadly force, according to the DA.
00:05:25.000Elizabeth City, North Carolina, DA Andrew Womble said at a news conference Tuesday morning that three deputies who opened fire on Brown, a father of seven, were justified in their use of deadly force because Brown drove his vehicle toward them and allegedly made contact with one deputy twice before officers fired their weapons.
00:05:42.000Womble said he made his decision based on the results of an investigation by the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation
00:05:47.000quote Mr. Brown's death while tragic was justified because mr
00:05:52.000Brown's actions caused three deputies with the Posca tank County Sheriff's Office to reasonably believe it was
00:05:57.000necessary to use deadly force to protect themselves and others
00:06:00.000attorneys for Brown's family released a statement Tuesday afternoon calling Womble's decision an attempt to whitewash
00:06:09.000Requested the US Department of Justice intervene immediately. I don't know how much you want to bet that
00:06:13.000they will intervene immediately, uh, you know
00:06:16.000if it was seen if it I mean, he was fleeing from the scene of a crime, right?
00:06:21.000And you can clearly see in the video the cop jumping out of the way.
00:06:24.000Well, not jumping, but he spins out of the way.
00:06:25.000He was looking like he was trying to run over the cop.
00:06:28.000I don't know if the Department of Justice... I mean, you never know with this Department of Justice, but I don't know if they're going to sit there and say, this is the case we're going to fall on the blade for.
00:06:36.000It was like that cop who shot that 13-year-old, 14-year-old black girl who was wielding a knife about to stab another one, sit there and say, no, this is, you know, she had, you know, she was in, I guess, foster care and her mother was like, she was a perfect child.
00:06:47.000I'm like, you didn't even have custody of her.
00:06:49.000I don't know what you're talking about.
00:06:50.000But she was wielding a knife at the time.
00:06:51.000When you're in the process of committing a crime and you're stopped in the committing a crime, it's really hard to sit there and justify it.
00:07:35.000Yeah, that's like, it is bizarre how this like is continuing.
00:07:39.000But we, we bring the facts here on Timcast IRL.
00:07:41.000So I pulled up everyone's favorite source Wikipedia, which says the United States Department of Justice investigation found the hands up claim was inconsistent with the physical and forensic evidence and the witness testimony surrounding the Brown shooting.
00:07:54.000They are still chanting hands up, don't shoot.
00:07:58.000That's why I'm like, I am kinda over this.
00:08:01.000But what do you do when they're not and they want to throw a brick through your window or burn down your house?
00:08:22.000But here's the other issue too, because you know, we talked about this the other day with like gun control, I'm sure we'll get into it again.
00:08:27.000When a bunch of people believe a bunch of fake BS, and they're believing it because of protests, and I'm totally, I'm not disparaging the protests, I'm just saying, there is a spread of misinformation that results in laws which just make everything worse.
00:08:41.000Notably in Brooklyn Center, Minneapolis.
00:08:43.000I'm sorry, Minnesota, just north of Minneapolis, basically a part of Minneapolis.
00:08:47.000They're now gonna have unarmed civilian traffic stops.
00:09:02.000It's like someone breaking something and then complaining about it not working when they're the ones who broke it.
00:09:07.000But because you sit there and we have been trained basically to decide if you have an emotional, if you're emotionally disturbed by something, it's really, you're in the right because you have a lived experience, so therefore it must be true.
00:09:19.000There's this great guy on Twitter, Greenberg, he's some kind of sociologist or whatever.
00:10:49.000They try putting him in an SUV and he's using his head to stop them from getting in just like George Floyd did and I'm like how amazing is it that this white ATF agent is being treated the same as we've seen many of these other videos where they're claiming it's racist.
00:11:03.000If you resist the police you're going to make everything substantially worse even if the cops are wrong and they often are.
00:11:51.000Just a girl screaming, I'm going to...
00:11:53.000Bleeping stab you and while waving a knife and he's gonna sit there say no It's a butter knife it you know, it wouldn't make that big of a difference It's and then and the ironic thing was a 13 year old girl was murdered by a knife attack by another 13 year old girl like the following day and I just wonder why those parents never spoke up and said like I wish we had an officer or that girl who survived They don't want the cops And I respect that.
00:12:25.000If someone says, I'm thankful the cops saved my life, I respect that.
00:12:28.000And if someone says, we do not want police in our neighborhood, I say, OK.
00:12:32.000But I'm sure that they probably, maybe they didn't, but I doubt if your daughter is dead, you don't sit, you sit there and say, and actually when they do polling, most, most people do want cops in their neighborhood.
00:12:41.000So I doubt that they're not going to defend the police if they're not going to stand up for them while they're being defunded and stripped and abolished and all that stuff.
00:12:48.000Yeah, but you know, here's the problem.
00:12:49.000It's that it's that minorities vote for the Democratic Party, which is controlled by white liberals who institute their beliefs that they have perpetuated on minorities don't actually get to govern themselves in many different ways.
00:13:54.000So I bring this up because right now this guy's out, you know, he goes out into North Carolina where this is going down and he shows these, these, these big cards where it's like a human body.
00:14:03.000And then he like draws the bullet holes.
00:14:04.000Like he did with, he did, he did the same thing with Michael Brown and he he's out there pushing this, this narrative.
00:14:11.000And I'm kind of losing my train of thought on this one.
00:14:12.000About how he's perpetuating these crimes to advance himself, basically.
00:14:16.000Yeah, it's all about making money, showing up, getting into the heat of the moment, claiming something happened.
00:14:22.000But you don't see this guy showing up in New York City when a black woman walked up to another black woman and put a bullet in her head.
00:15:33.000I will do better representing the community.
00:15:36.000But the community itself will not advance.
00:15:37.000And that has been the model ever since, is that the spokesman does well while the community suffers, as opposed to old school politicians from 60, 70 years ago where they would throw, you know, $100,000 so the community could have a parade or whatever the case may be, or school or whatnot.
00:15:52.000Now it's just, let's advance the spokesman and make them enormously wealthy.
00:15:55.000And then what happens after this guy leaves?
00:16:04.000And this guy gets millions of dollars.
00:16:06.000Remember that girl, that woman in Minneapolis who was like in tears because she had nowhere to buy her daughter's medicine because the only CVS was burnt down in like, yeah, of course they don't care.
00:16:16.000But that's that is that is so typical of wealthy people with working class people.
00:17:50.000That's a perfect example because you want to, I mean, but they depend on those organizations.
00:17:55.000How much money did BLM get from these billionaires who wanted to feel good and they want to sit there and write their, uh, you know, back a thousand years ago in the Catholic church, you'd write, you know, your check to sit there and get your sins washed away.
00:18:07.000They get their white privilege washed away.
00:18:09.000They do the entire performative art program.
00:18:12.000A few people got very, very wealthy over it.
00:18:17.000And we're still going to take an H-1B visa worker over training, you know, a black person from south side of Chicago or north side of Chicago or wherever.
00:18:58.000But, you know, listen, if that's what you're sitting there and you... Because Apple's the thing to do and it's part of their identity program.
00:19:04.000And these were a lot of... Occupy Walsh were wealthy kids from trust fund families who needed an identity and a cause.
00:21:05.000You've gotta have people maintaining the stuff.
00:21:07.000It costs money to maintain these buildings.
00:21:08.000And they're probably also not black or employed.
00:21:11.000I mean, imagine if she sits there and hired, like, you know, a Hispanic illegal alien to sit there and maintain it instead of at least employing a black person to do a job.
00:21:20.000That would be, I guess, the bare minimum you could sit there and do.
00:21:23.000I don't care so much about the race, but how much you want to bet she is employing undocumented or... Oh, yeah, absolutely.
00:21:28.000And that is the hypocrisy of all these organizations that sit there and and do everything they can to displace American labor because it's, quote unquote, expensive while and get foreign labor as fast as they can.
00:21:39.000And they're the first ones to sit there and say there's mass inequality.
00:21:44.000This is a quote from the book called Mountain, but it's like being in control of the weather and sitting inside the rain and saying it's raining.
00:22:15.000He did not He didn't charge a series of crimes around the BLM riots, including like, you know, breaking into windows, destroying public property, destroying private property, didn't prosecute anything.
00:22:25.000And now he's being primaried by a guy named Carlos Vega, who is a prosecutor.
00:24:54.000I was like, this isn't, this isn't real, right?
00:24:56.000It's amazing to me how dumb some of these people are that he couldn't come up with a better story where he could have just said a car drove by and a guy yelled, this is MAGA country and threw a bottle at him, you know?
00:25:07.000He sat in his apartment with the noose around his neck.
00:25:11.000For like a half an hour till they show up.
00:25:12.000He just sat there with the noose around his neck I mean that doesn't raise a flag.
00:25:17.000I don't know I have never had a noose put around my neck But I bet you if I did I wouldn't sit there with I don't like wearing my tie like for one more second than I have to.
00:25:26.000You wanted to make sure the cops came in.
00:25:27.000Exactly like yeah, I'm just gonna sit there and you know what I really loved was that like apparently there was footage of him with the brothers like walking up to the area like the day before or something and like This is what we're gonna do it exactly and sitting there and saying oh, you know in a degree whether these and it's saying and in full seriousness He believed that no everyone would just believe him a hundred but they did no I mean no most people did not believe when you get that wasn't the Big Bang Theory or whatever like some show they all like he doesn't have a career nowadays Well, that's because he got he got caught.
00:26:01.000Yeah, but at the time you had all these photos coming out you had remember when The actor, we'll just call the actor Paige to avoid offending anybody.
00:26:11.000The person who played Shadowcat in X-Men.
00:26:54.000So you have these people who go on TV after the Justice Millet thing who are just like screaming and like shaking.
00:26:59.000Just believing the world is this insane place.
00:27:02.000Well, if you're not an interesting person, and most people are not interesting, and no offense to them, but they're not interesting, and you need to wrap yourself in identity.
00:27:10.000Usually, you know, a generation or two ago, you either had kids by your early 30s, or you were married, or you had a career you were building, and that was kind of your whole identity.
00:27:18.000Maybe you belonged to a civic association of some sort, like, I don't know, some kind of bowling league, whatever the cases be.
00:27:23.000That was your identity, and it was wrapped in actually doing something.
00:27:25.000Now, if you're like a 35-year-old person, and You're either in your mom's basement because you can't get a job or you're a single woman and you have 15 degrees and you can't get a job or whatever.
00:27:35.000Of course you wrap yourself in a bigger identity.
00:27:37.000It's how you make yourself interesting in some way.
00:29:17.000First for no apparent reason you cannot take the mask off these people are like being flipped like pancakes over and over again And they're probably at some point like their blood pressure must be through the roof Because all they know is I trust the authorities.
00:29:33.000I trust the establishment, but they keep getting Like I'm saying, it's Simon Says with Fauci.
00:29:38.000I don't know how much of it is like, I hate Trump and I want to show how great I am at hating Republicans and Conservatives so I'm going to still wear my mask, and how much of it is I genuinely fear for my health.
00:29:47.000Because there are those people who have genuine paranoia, fear, and this is all coming out, and how much of it is like, this is part of my identity, I wear a mask.
00:29:55.000Like David Hogg, who's like, I'm going to wear a mask.
00:29:56.000Because I don't want to be a conservative.
00:29:57.000Because I don't want to be a conservative, so I'm going to sit there and just, you know, I'm just saying, it's also not healthy for you to wear a mask all the time.
00:30:07.000But I'm wondering at what point do these people just drop to their knees and like their eyes go out opposite direction and they go... Because you cannot...
00:30:17.000Like, so, the woke left will say, women is offensive because it's not inclusive, so you gotta say Wimmickson, but Wimmickson is offensive because it changes women and now it's exclusive.
00:30:27.000How do you live in a world where there's no rules?
00:30:29.000If you do not have mental fortitude, your brain is probably going to explode at some point.
00:31:02.000And that's, but that's when they use it.
00:31:04.000See, here's my frustration with the right after COVID.
00:31:07.000COVID was like, the problem with the right is like, we do things like we complain about public education for 45 years saying it's a horrible, horrible institution with lots of fallacies, which it is.
00:31:25.000It's not like, Hey, Maybe we could like, you know, give every parent a certain amount of money if they want to homeschool or send their kid to a private school or a religious school, whatever the case is, and we'll massively change our education.
00:31:45.000Did you see the tweet from the GOP where they were like, you know, thousands of mothers have chosen to stay home with their kids instead of going to work?
00:32:14.000Fran Leeberwitz, who I'm a really big fan of, she was like, oh, it's so great that there's no more tourists in New York City, because I hate tourists, but also the New York City economy just crashed.
00:32:23.000And she's like, they were like, we're going to get back to normal.
00:32:59.000I want you to describe to me where I can close my eyes, I can walk through a town that you want to be mayor of, and I want to see what that town would look like that is drastically different than the world I have now.
00:33:08.000And if you don't have that vision, you can't explain it to me, who spends my whole life in here.
00:33:21.000But the creativity or like the ideas of the left and their vision, you know, look, they might have a vision, but it's like hovercrafts and unicorns flying through the air.
00:33:33.000Replicators producing free cheeseburgers that everyone's fit for.
00:33:36.000Yeah, if you put LSD in your oatmeal, that's the visions you get.
00:33:40.000But that doesn't mean that you shouldn't have an alternative aside from, oh, we'll just make enough tax cuts that the world will be better.
00:34:12.000Where they like, you get one parent to like watch the 40 kids or whatever, and then they trade off and stuff.
00:34:17.000Yes, that's illegal in some states, in some communities.
00:34:19.000And that should be the number one thing people should campaign on, making sure that if you have a former math teacher on your block, And she is not allowed to sit there and bring all the kids from the block to sit there and learn math.
00:34:30.000And that's one of the things that the governor should have signed executive orders immediately and done that, but they didn't because, you know, people between the ears.
00:34:36.000They don't have a lot of things going on there.
00:34:38.000So I guess that's one of the biggest problems we have in the culture war is you've got people who are opposed to something and people who want something psychotic.
00:34:45.000Yeah, and you don't have the alternative to sit there and say, what is, what does, you know, what would benefit America that you could provide and use the government, use the power of government in some positive sense?
00:34:57.000They do this in other countries on the right.
00:34:59.000And I get that America has some attachment to the idea of, you know, liberty and, but At the end of the day, most people do want some kind of security.
00:35:06.000They do want some kind of vision from their leaders.
00:35:08.000And, you know, that's why we slowly lose every institution.
00:35:12.000They erode everything across the board.
00:35:14.000And if you don't, I mean, the one thing that we've kind of won on is guns, as you mentioned.
00:35:18.000I mean, the right has won on guns, but that's because you had a group of people who were singularly focused, who had a vision.
00:35:23.000The vision was you can buy a gun without a license.
00:35:26.000And when in 1986, there was only one state in the country that had that law, which was Vermont of all places.
00:35:31.000And now it's like over 18 states that have that law.
00:35:35.000I just learned this today because we've got another story, and we'll lead off with this real quick.
00:35:41.000There's a story out of Arkansas about a guy who stops a mass shooting.
00:35:44.000And I think it's really important to talk about because had this man not have been there, then every outlet would be like, oh no, another tragedy, another mass shooting from a crazy far-right, white...
00:35:55.000But he killed, I believe, one person, and then a guy grabbed his rifle and stopped him.
00:36:02.000It's a horrifying event, but I mean, in life, people do crazy things.
00:36:08.000So in looking up the story, and I'll jump to it in a second, I looked up constitutional carry in the U.S., and the funny thing is, We, the gun, the gun rights advocates have been winning.
00:36:54.000So there's only some areas of, you know, of the Northeast and California and Maryland that are may issue, meaning you can apply and they can tell you to screw off.
00:37:03.000but all of most of the country now except for new jersey long island and hawaii those are no issue in practice they call it meaning you're not getting a gun yeah but in most of the country you you can get a gun and more importantly all of this green it's like Constitutional carry.
00:37:21.000You can walk in, and Texas is about to do it.
00:37:23.000Texas is about to pass constitutional carry.
00:37:25.000That means you can walk into a gun shop.
00:37:50.000And that's because they had, I mean, the NRA was part of it, but Gun Owners of America and these organizations and the activists had one vision and it was, I'm going to buy, be able to buy a gun wherever I want to.
00:38:00.000It is, you know, not every vision is this grand scheme, but And so I'll tell you one of the visions that I've certainly been having over the past year.
00:38:25.000Everyone get out of the building right now!
00:38:27.000When a older woman went out to, uh, two women went out to console him, they saw that he had a weapon, they fled, he went into the apartments of one of the women, and he took her life.
00:38:38.000At some point, there was a neighbor who grabbed a rifle of his own and fatally shot the killer.
00:38:44.000The police haven't released many details of the incident.
00:38:46.000We don't know yet what motivated Arnold to kill his elderly neighbor.
00:38:49.000It's clear that as a resident, Amber Lane, told local media, there could have been many more victims were it not for the quick response by the armed citizen.
00:39:16.000They want to take away the weapons from the people.
00:39:19.000Then a criminal will get a gun, commit a mass tragedy, and will say, see, this is exactly why we're saying take away your guns.
00:39:24.000They'll make gun laws more restrictive, which will make the problem continually worse, and keep using the problem they created to justify making the problem worse.
00:39:34.000So in my vision, people have a right to keep and bear arms, and when unfortunate situations happen, people have a right to defend themselves.
00:39:42.000A Department of Gun Services, where when you turn 16, you go in, you fill out the paperwork, they bring you to the range, you do a standard shooting test, and then you get your free government-issued AR or handgun.
00:39:51.000I'm somewhat kidding, but the point is I'm saying I think people should be trained, should understand gun safety from a young age, and should keep in bear arms.
00:40:41.000Maybe I'm wrong, but... And I know people who listen to this show are going to back out Tim to bring up the same argument again, but because you maybe have not heard it, my argument is like, you know, people drive cars, and I don't think they're going to hit me with their car.
00:40:53.000Sometimes people hit people with cars.
00:40:56.000But I feel totally comfortable with everybody being armed, so long as they understand Actually, I feel much safer with them understanding gun safety and having a weapon.
00:41:04.000Well, look how many people actually have guns, and look how relatively few murders there are.
00:41:08.000And look, I mean, people have cars, and relatively, you know, minor accidents there are.
00:41:12.000But people are on their smartphones, like, playing a video game, texting while walking down the street.
00:41:16.000It is amazing that there aren't, like, thousands of bodies scattered across major cities.
00:41:20.000Like, people generally are, you know, and there are some people who are off their rocker, like the Vegas shooter or whoever, who, like, want to commit horrible acts.
00:41:28.000Well, we don't know enough about that guy, actually.
00:41:43.000The argument from the left is that because there is a small fraction of crazy people, the overwhelming majority, 99.999, shouldn't be allowed to defend themselves.
00:41:52.000no such you know the worst you know the tenant governor of carolina as they've
00:41:56.000you heard of this guy he's a rock robinson this is last year and he gave
00:42:00.000a speech or try to do gun control and his local county and he gave a speech on
00:42:04.000viral mark robin mark robinson saying that you know
00:42:08.000your your christens of of people committing crimes always how do we hurt
00:42:13.000How do we hurt the people, you know, abiding by the law?
00:42:16.000He's a big black man, rural place, has a big rural accent, and a great, great, great man.
00:42:21.000And he's like, I am the majority, because the majority are law-abiding gun owners.
00:42:55.000And the problem is with the media is, and I worked, I used to work at the Washington Examiner, you know, many, a few years ago, like five years ago, and most people, and that was the right-wing media, most people don't own guns in the media, especially like New York media, DC media, they don't own guns, they never fire them.
00:43:10.000Wasn't like the Washington Post who had a picture of like a chainsaw attached to a machine gun?
00:43:53.000I always say this, imagine if the guy went turkey hunting.
00:43:55.000Maybe if you're a bad shot, you'd be humiliated by it, but PTSD is...
00:43:59.000I, I, as, as I've, you know, gotten more heavily involved in, you know, gun ownership, experienced firing a 12 gauge and firing an AR with five, you know, in 5.56.
00:44:10.000And if this guy thinks that the 5.56 was, was giving, was that bad, I, and that's, that's the actual weapon of war, 5.56 NATO, then I couldn't imagine him going small game hunting.
00:45:17.000In a controlled circumstance with an instructor with safety gear on.
00:45:20.000People do demolition, like for a living, across the whole country and never have this problem.
00:45:26.000The Mythbusters would blow stuff up every day in the Mojave Desert for fun, for a TV show.
00:45:31.000When the whole earth rocks, when they're demolishing a giant skyrise and you're like six blocks away, that's...
00:45:37.000Bro, we knocked down a tree in my backyard when we were in the Philly area.
00:45:41.000We had to get a tree removed because it was dying, and it was like it had fungus or something.
00:45:45.000And so they were like, what we're going to do is, we are going to go up, they climb to the top, they cut chunks of the top off, then measure, and they say, okay, we're going to knock it down straight this way and it's going to slam into the ground.
00:46:35.000Because I was so used to being on the ground in these conflict situations that when the bang went off, it was like, That's when you are like in action mode.
00:46:42.000And then I was like, kind of laughing to myself, I was like, wow man.
00:46:45.000It's like I gotta chill out I guess, because I'm getting sick.
00:46:47.000Yeah, but like, I mean there are people who like live in like Syria during the revolution
00:46:50.000and like they undergo horrible things on a daily basis and they don't sit there and feel the need to write an op-ed
00:46:56.000about how they were emotionally triggered by every moment of their life.
00:47:17.000It makes you tough if you live there your whole life.
00:47:20.000And you just are unfazed by certain things.
00:47:22.000There was like a failed bombing there a couple of years ago and like the press ran there and there are people like, they're like, can you stop?
00:47:35.000And I guess if you're a very fragile person who's been very comfortable your entire life, like the most minimal thing just is there and shakes you.
00:47:41.000I think more than that, he had an agenda to push, too, though.
00:47:44.000Yeah, and I was reading about Switzerland, and far from being a response to World War II, the reason that Germany did not invade Switzerland was because every man has to be in the military, and yes, they do have guns in every single home.
00:47:55.000They're issued by the government, which is Tim's idea.
00:49:20.000A big thing about the police that people don't understand is it's not only something about
00:49:24.000safety, it's about climbing up the economic ladder.
00:49:27.000My family, my dad's side, super poor, 11 kids, super Irish Catholic, every boy became a cop because that's your only avenue to join the middle class.
00:49:35.000If you cut off that avenue, now in every major city in this country, basically, policemen are majority minority.
00:49:44.000This is the avenue to become part of the middle class or people who have no other way of going to college and spending $40,000 a year and doing it.
00:49:50.000By cutting off the ability to become a cop, because the alternative now is to become a sociologist and back up $200,000 in debt.
00:49:57.000By cutting off the ability to be part of the middle class, the alternative for security for these gated communities is going to be private security guards without a pension, Probably making maybe $25 an hour and that's it with no
00:50:08.000ability to retire It keeps it actually suppresses people poor people even
00:50:13.000more both in urban communities are making them less safe But also cutting off the opportunity to join the middle
00:50:18.000class. I know that's a totally random thing I thought the riots are the same thing
00:50:22.000They destroy residential neighborhoods, they destroy businesses, and the ultra-wealthy can buy up cheap property and then sit on it and wait until the price goes up.
00:50:28.000Yeah, but if you care, if you're supposed to be a working class people, this is what you're supposed to actually care about, is how does the working class, how does the working poor make it in this country and advance themselves to some... Not everyone's going to be a billionaire, and not everyone needs to be a billionaire or a millionaire, but some level, some floor of comfortability where, you know, their kids will do better themselves and
00:50:47.000they'll have some respectability at the end of their life.
00:50:50.000If that's the end goal, as it should be for any socioeconomic policy, this does the complete
00:51:31.000But there's a big difference between the leftists, like the Antifa types, who are literally, like, wanting an insurrection and buying a bunch of guns and quoting Marx all day.
00:51:42.000When Marx said, you know, under no pretext shall arms and ammunition be surrendered.
00:51:46.000The workers must frustrate this with force if necessary.
00:51:49.000He's just an establishment guy, right?
00:52:20.000Because with Biden in the White House, the media does not want to aid us in demanding stronger gun reforms.
00:52:25.000Because whatever Joe Biden does is suddenly the right thing to do, Kasky said.
00:52:29.000When Donald Trump was the president calling for an assault weapons ban and saying that the measures that he was putting in place were not nearly enough was a very popular opinion.
00:52:37.000Now if you're calling for an assault weapons ban, suddenly just an angry leftist who will never be happy with anything.
00:52:44.000They were using you to try and get Donald Trump out of office.
00:52:47.000The assault weapon ban would have never done anything and that's why your ideas don't make sense.
00:52:53.000But it's no surprise that the media is like, we're out.
00:52:55.000They didn't want to help him in the first place.
00:52:57.000Well, and now I mean, I tweeted this because I think the Washington Post had an op-ed about how Biden's White House is the most blue collar White House in history, which is like completely not true.
00:53:08.000But I guess if you have a job, you're considered blue collar.
00:53:10.000And I said, you know, Clinton got fellatio from one intern.
00:53:13.000Now the entire press corps is doing it for Biden left and right.
00:56:40.000And yeah, maybe he's just likable and people will sit there and excuse it, but it is really horrendous.
00:56:45.000And if, you know, if we go into next year, I mean that, I mean, his approval ratings I think are at 52, 51, 53% about, and his disapprovals are in the mid 40s, which is very average for, you know, 100 day, 128th president.
00:57:15.000but yeah, so the best way to get something done if you if you hold near and dear to you that you uh
00:57:21.000Yum like to be able to Anyway, and that's and that's not that's not his like tick
00:57:27.000that he has where he can't speak. That's not stutter I forgot what he was saying that is it can I just
00:57:31.000On what house right house not gov. Yeah, it's actually it's actually here transcribed
00:57:37.000It's actually transcribed on white house.gov. Exactly. It is a quote from Joe Biden. Yeah
00:57:43.000Yeah, and that will never be, I mean, that will never be looked at, all of his, you know, Biden-isms, the way that Trump used to say, like, everything was the greatest, the most wonderful, the best.
00:57:52.000That was, I mean, mocked ridiculously.
00:58:29.000And you know, my grandfather died of Parkinson's and my grandmother's dementia. I'm very used to
00:58:34.000that. And when he had Parkinson's, he got Luby dementia. I know dementia. I'm not like a doctor
00:58:39.000or whatever. And I don't think that he has any advanced stages of it. But even if he's the
00:58:44.000perfectly most healthy person in the world, he is a man of a particular age. And.
00:58:48.000And you know, yeah, there are a handful of men who go into their 80s, you know, the Clint Eastwoods of the world, they can still sit there and work and operate.
01:02:52.000You're getting a lot more younger people who are coming in.
01:02:54.000But there really was a period where Millennials, and I'm not gonna blame Gen Z, they're not quite at that point yet, but Millennials are entering their, getting close to their 40s.
01:03:03.00040s, yeah, and we only have a handful.
01:03:05.000And who's doing anything substantive in politics and culture leading the charge?
01:03:10.000So, as much as I can make fun of myself, I think what we're doing is important.
01:03:15.000We're engaging in civics, we're engaging in politics, we're communicating with other millennials and talking about these issues.
01:03:20.000Obviously the people who are watching are engaged, but there is a large, large portion of millennials who are just abstaining.
01:04:21.000That's I mean, that is literally who they became is everything they heard that the hippie movement really got derailed by the drugs like they just did.
01:04:30.000But people that have looked back were like, if we hadn't done all the drugs, we would have been able to have a political movement for real.
01:05:53.000And they And in a lot of ways, they sold out a lot of things that gave them that ability to amass that wealth because it made them wealthier.
01:06:02.000I mean, things like normalizing trade relations with China and stopping a lot of other things as well.
01:06:08.000But yeah, the boomers deserve a lot of love.
01:06:10.000And there's a great book by my co-podcast.
01:06:12.000I have a podcast with American Conservative Magazine called Right Now.
01:06:15.000My co-podcast host Helen Andrews wrote a book called Boomers.
01:06:40.000It's silent boomers, X, Y. But the greatest generation was they came back from World War II and they had a bunch of babies, and that generation was the boomers.
01:06:47.000So what did the greatest generation do wrong that created a bunch of... They made the suburbs, and that's where everything went wrong.
01:06:54.000No, I just think that, you know, if you grew up in the Depression and you grew up and you went to World War II, which was a lot of that generation growing up through really hard times, worse than millennials had it, you kind of want normalcy.
01:07:08.000And you probably are a little quieter in your beliefs and you don't sit there and overstimulate telling a lot of things.
01:07:19.000A lot of boomers went to Vietnam and they fought in a horrible war that they shouldn't have been a part of.
01:07:22.000Some boomers did sacrifice a lot, but the overall focus on me, going to the suburbs, I need to have a bigger plot.
01:07:31.000I think that definitely affected a lot of people's psyche as a part of this is about me.
01:07:37.000Boomers later on went on to go, because if they were born in the 40s, they came of age voting for the, you know, the me generation with Reagan.
01:07:43.000Their kids absorbed it big time, which was the Xers, who was probably our better generation we have alive today as the Xers.
01:07:56.000I think the greatest generation came back from all this hardship overseas and they were like, I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure that my kids have everything they want.
01:08:05.000I want them to live the American dream.
01:08:08.000I never want, I want them to go to college.
01:08:09.000You know, I don't want them that might've, but they also inherited their, their, they also inherited the greatest generation, everything they built.
01:08:16.000But also, if you grow up in depression and war and really terrible situations, of course you want normalcy for your cow.
01:08:29.000was the only country that didn't get leveled during World War II.
01:08:31.000Our soil didn't get invaded, so we had massive wealth.
01:08:34.000And they created a system on top of that that could only subsist with that level of wealth.
01:08:39.000But if you look at the drop-off, It does decrease starting in the 70s, but when they normalize trade relations with China and when they go into NAFTA, you see it plummet and it catapult.
01:08:49.000Nixon took us off the gold standard purely for that reason.
01:08:52.000No, Nixon took us off the gold standard because he couldn't afford LBJ's spending deals, and he couldn't also pay for that anymore.
01:09:41.000Only 40% of millennials have not had their first child yet, and they're going to the phase.
01:09:44.000And there was some data from a few years ago that said people who are 29 have a negative net worth of about $1,000, and only at 30 do they go positive.
01:10:12.000And add that to all the people who came out of the tech boom.
01:10:17.000I don't know how much Tom from Myspace is worth, but still, if you add all those people together who made something and became a billionaire or a hundred million or whatever, and accumulate them together, I'm sure they make up a dozen people, probably make up a significant group.
01:10:31.000Yeah, that is genuinely a wild, wild idea.
01:10:36.000Look, I can look at the older generation and blame them for not instilling proper values in millennials, but when you get people who think the path towards making money is accruing hundreds of thousands of dollars in school debt...
01:11:16.000How do you have a country When an entire generation owns nothing except for like Mark Zuckerberg and they're saddled with a debt that just keeps going up.
01:11:25.000Well, more importantly, colleges should have to co-sign their loans.
01:12:08.000And also, they're the it's they're so hypocritical because it's like the home of the biggest leftist, the biggest bleeding heart progressives.
01:12:14.000And every way the college administration works is like the is the most money grabbing kind of organization in the entire world.
01:12:23.000It is like it is like a wolf of Wall Street would not be as deceptive as college institutions are.
01:13:15.000No, but this is where I talked to a congressman from the Midwest the other day about this.
01:13:21.000They always talk about repatriating stuff from China now and bringing back our health care and our military stuff and our production value, actually building factories, whatever.
01:13:29.000If you left that up to market forces alone, they would go to Arizona, Texas, California for the shipping and the newest and best rail and all the rest, roads, everything, internet.
01:13:41.000Yeah, real infrastructure, not like the BS infrastructure that Biden was selling us on, like, you know, childcare.
01:13:47.000If you really want to revive the places who've been devastated for up to 30, 40, 50 years of bad trade agreements and Chinese manipulation, all the rest of it, you need government power to sit there and say, OK, not only is this aspirin factory going to come back to the United States, it's going to go to Detroit.
01:14:03.000And we're going to figure out a way to make it incentivized for you to go to Torrey.
01:14:11.000We're going to make you go to Akron, Ohio, or go to Altoona, Pennsylvania, or go to Erie, Pennsylvania, these places that have been just there.
01:14:19.000They are on the precipice of annihilation as a people go, you know, and that has a whole psyche where you have, you know, in America, in our lifetime, The life expectancy was declining in broad sections of the country.
01:14:34.000If you are born in Kentucky or West Virginia as a white person, or in the Mississippi Delta as a black person, or in the Native American reservations as a Native American person in South Dakota, you're going to die 20 years before someone who's born in the suburbs of Denver, Colorado.
01:14:51.000That is just the huge discrepancy of life expectancy.
01:14:54.000South Dakota has the lowest life expectancy in the Western Hemisphere.
01:15:00.000I hear you, and I understand that we probably do have the resources to solve a lot of these problems, but who's going to blow up the kids overseas if we take the money away from international excursions?
01:15:16.000But you and I mean, the army is a jobs program in many aspects of it.
01:15:20.000But at the same time, if you're going to sit there and have if COVID was going to sit there and devastate our economy, and we're going to rebrand it and not every job is an Amazon job.
01:15:29.000And you want to actually improve the lives of working-class people who have been, from urban areas to rural to ex-urban, who have been devastated by our modern economy and by the modern system.
01:16:51.000It's mishandled to an extent, but they do try to do a good job, so...
01:16:54.000I do have one idea that I think, you know, I know a lot of people talk about term limits,
01:16:59.000and we go back and forth on whether it'll work or not.
01:17:02.000We could, just hear me out, take a giant spaceship, like the one that Elon Musk has created, put all of the politicians on it, and send it to Mars.
01:17:57.000I mean, you want to build us create a jobs program, United States tunnels, multi layer roads like you know, Chicago's got upper and lower Wacker something I shouldn't be able to sit by the way I shouldn't just sit in mass amounts of traffic and all and This is the problem, is that people would be okay with the government's nonsense if they did the bare minimum, the quality of life thing.
01:18:16.000If I wasn't in the nation's capital, walking my dog on a block with nine homeless people who are talking to themselves, if we could just solve the basics, people would excuse a lot of nonsense.
01:18:27.000I really do feel like our government at this point is like, you know, it started out with someone creating, you know, Christmas lights.
01:18:35.000And they're rolling them up real perfectly.
01:18:37.000And then each time they hand off the roll of Christmas lights, they get a little more tangled.
01:19:06.000What's in the Constitution, what we can do?
01:19:09.000Not, oh, what power can we just sit there and use boldly to sit there and, no, we have to ask bureaucracy to lower them.
01:19:15.000And that's why local governments are more responsive, because they are smaller, but because they are, it's literally like, what service can you provide immediately?
01:19:23.000Not like these long, you know, alienated beliefs that no one really cares about.
01:19:26.000I think we've just got, you know, this jumbled up system of a bunch of crisscrossing weird laws and rules and regulations that are confusing everybody.
01:19:34.000But what happened, and I wrote this in the book by the way, and I talk about this constantly in my newsletter, the National Populist Newsletter, is that what happened in all these other countries was finally, it was enough, and they voted for these outsized parties that are very radical in their beliefs and how they do it.
01:19:49.000We have a first-past-the-post system, which is like, you have to get the majority in your individual district, so it's a little different, it's a little harder to have that.
01:19:55.000But we're seeing changes within the two-party structure that are saying, it just doesn't work for us.
01:20:00.000And yeah, some of those people are the AOCs of the world, and they're like, you know, nuts.
01:20:04.000And then some of the people are, you know, real reformers who want to do something, and we may see them coming out, who sit there and say to like, you know, the libertarians of the world, like, oh great, you know, government can be used for something good.
01:20:49.000And then when Joe Biden gets elected and they reopen the Homestead facility, she says, detention, you know, immigration facilities with controversial records.
01:20:57.000What a great leap from concentration camps.
01:20:59.000My problem with populism is when you get a backlash to enact or, you know, Faulty systems, and then you just get some really popular person that doesn't know what they're doing.
01:21:53.000And it started, yeah, we were starting to see a change.
01:21:55.000But like, yeah, there are people who do radically terrible things, but it's also like owning a gun.
01:22:00.000Yeah, some people are nuts and they shouldn't be holding a firearm.
01:22:03.000And some people are genuine and can actually do something with the power you give them.
01:22:07.000Look, you know, we're at this point where you've got the Democratic Party wholly embracing Black Lives Matter and the left wholly embracing Black Lives Matter.
01:22:15.000And the symbol that they fly on their flags is literally the symbol of communism.
01:22:44.000This is the problem conservatives have, is they think they're arguing with someone who's interested.
01:22:48.000They think they're going and sitting down with a guy who's literally got the red salute tattooed on his neck, and they're like, but hear me out.
01:22:53.000Here's why I think this policy is wrong.
01:22:59.000That is exactly, I tell this all the time, conservatives, you're playing a game that they're not following the rules.
01:23:05.000Like, you're literally playing chess and there's, well, now we'll just move any piece we want.
01:23:09.000I don't see populism functioning in the Democratic Party in that Bernie Sanders, I thought, was for sure going to be nominated and elected in 2016.
01:23:51.000How did you feel, Ian, after Bernie was, you know, fighting the system and the bird landed and then he got up on the stage and was like, I'm going to now get on my knees and lick the feet of Hillary Clinton.
01:24:01.000I cried, but I was so sad I couldn't cry.
01:24:56.000All right, this is what bothers me, is like, I'm not going to have a debate with someone who's like, there's like homeless people, but like, why don't we just put them in a house?
01:25:25.000Legit house we can put you in it. We get some clean clothes you back. No, really?
01:25:29.000Yep, why because they don't want to leave they like they met so it's not every single person a lot of people just
01:25:35.000assume Homelessness is always this this bad position that people
01:25:39.000have unfortunately found themselves in not realizing that some people choose to do this
01:25:43.000It's like Shawshank Redemption where they like being in prison. Yeah, I suppose but I wouldn't even feel like being
01:25:48.000in prison Some of these people are like, I wake up outside with fresh air, I can walk wherever I want, I can sleep wherever I want, I have nothing to worry about, I can do what I want, and so they end up sleeping and dragging around crap, and they smell bad, and it just creates homeless camps, and they like doing it.
01:26:04.000Well, Austin just banned their homeless camps.
01:26:18.000So then you get Northern California actually saying they'll seize the assets of people who are homeless if they refuse to like, you know, engage in whatever.
01:26:26.000You have some people who are mentally unwell.
01:26:37.000Now you've got someone who's mentally unwell sitting in a room rocking back and forth as they're being sprayed with water and the floors are soaking up and who's there to help them?
01:27:02.000It's about somebody's gotta be managing all the taxes on this.
01:27:04.000Someone's gonna be managing the day-to-day expenses, the mail that's showing up.
01:27:09.000I'm sure she has a staff that's dealing with this to maintain all of these houses.
01:27:13.000Or, as she said, her family is living in them.
01:27:16.000It's not just that a house just sits there and is full of money.
01:27:19.000And so what happens is, you get people on Twitter, with hundreds of thousands of followers, posting something they absolutely do not understand.
01:27:29.000Well, that's why Zoomers and Millennials get their education from social media.
01:27:32.000They're almost as bad as Boomers are with their Facebook posts, but now on Instagram and Twitter, where it's just like literally a picture that's supposed to explain a large System and that's why you get a lot of the beliefs on black
01:27:42.000lives matter to go back to where we first are a lot Of it's like oh well black people are 13% of the population,
01:27:48.000but they're you know this percentage of the what percent of crime
01:27:50.000Do they commit what percentage like there's a lot more than what you're giving and what you're but your education comes
01:27:55.000from memes Yeah, that's a problem Jeff Bezos
01:27:58.000Makes about a million dollars a year in benefits and his salary is eighty three thousand dollars
01:28:07.000He has contractual agreements and obligations, and they say, like, when certain price points are reached, he's allowed to sell out a certain amount of his stock.
01:28:14.000So they say he made $13 billion in one day.
01:28:16.000No, the value of Amazon as a company went up $13 billion.
01:28:19.000But there is no circumstance in which Jeff Bezos could say, I'm going to liquidate all of my stock into cash right now for $185 billion.
01:29:40.000Okay, so you're saying you want to liquidate Amazon and lay off tons of people and shut the company down because you don't like that this guy's rich, and then have no money and no resources to help anybody.
01:29:52.000Stop wasting my time because you're not arguing anything.
01:29:54.000But then you have to deal with the fact that these people, like Bernie Sanders, are in politics and are making policy, and then millennials are just sitting here complaining.
01:30:34.000I do know a significant amount of 20 year old men who are virgins like a like I knew none when I was like a 23 year old or I knew like a handful who were like we're trying to get laid but just couldn't like $50 in Bangkok couldn't help him.
01:30:47.000But now I know a significant who are just choosing not to have sex.
01:31:00.000Yeah, yeah, and it was like five years.
01:31:02.000But it was a lot of like hoping that I would meet someone, and I would spend like, swipe right, I hope that this works out, but that's not how you find someone.
01:32:03.000Tinder and all these apps are really, really awesome.
01:32:06.000I never had a dating app and I wish like I didn't so I never experienced like what that's like but and it must be horrible to just try to make like general conversation but if you can't make conversation in real life right on everybody how the hell can you make conversation on just an app or I don't know some people are really good and some people you know well I don't know what the exact reason for it but Washington Post ran the story where they showed that this is a couple years ago men 29 and under were substantially more likely to be virgins like 33 or more percent And I was we talked about this quite a bit I think it's dating apps because it opens up the dating pool for younger women to older men That didn't used to exist right a 35 year old guy had very little access to 22 year old women He'd have to go and lurk around colleges was kind of weird now.
01:32:47.000It's just on the app boom there boom And you got porn.
01:34:13.000Make 1984 Fiction Again says it is Tuesday, May 18th, and Massachusetts is still secretly leading number one totalitarian authoritarian regime in the Marxist state of America.
01:34:32.000Christian Jimgochian says I nearly jumped up in cheer during my shift today when the DA spat in the face of BLM saying at a press conference that the Andrew Brown killing was justified based on Brown's own actions.
01:35:50.000Because I don't know anything about crypto.
01:35:52.000I don't know anything about crypto and I just... Certain ones are like computer programs called smart contracts which can facilitate like if I send you money and then you need to... Everyone says Bitcoin's the only good one.
01:36:40.000So I could probably Just snap my fingers and create what's called a token, which would exist on the Ethereum blockchain, and I could call it something like Beanie Coin, and I could make a million of them, and then be like, they're for sale, and probably make money.
01:36:53.000One of my female comic friends said, you know, women are never gonna close the gap between men on income, because men just make their own money now.
01:37:02.000So every time we think we're getting close, no, they're just gonna make their own coin.
01:37:07.000So I think, uh, so I'm not giving anyone financial advice.
01:38:20.000We have, like, you know, like, Christians read the Bible, Catholics get a man to give you a book report at the end of every week, and that's what you sit there and live with, and that's... So we don't... I'm that kind of... No, but I go to church on Sunday, so if that's devout, then that's what I do.
01:38:33.000All right, Joseph Allen says, Hey Tim, I just got my To The Moon shirt today.
01:38:51.000Your girlfriend would think you're beautiful.
01:38:53.000All right, Comic Nut says, I just had the cops called on me last weekend for a noise complaint, and my neighbors know I'm strapped, and I let them pat me down and everything.
01:39:02.000The worst that happened was they told me to sober up.
01:41:37.000Bush Bush had a 90 percent approval rating could have done anything he wanted to do and he invaded a country
01:41:41.000It's a problem with left and right. It's this like military group of like covert military ops like bill crystal dick cheney
01:41:48.000that like It infiltrated the government and whatever party it doesn't
01:41:51.000matter what party affiliate they were they're they're militants I'm not a huge fan of Colin Powell, but when Colin Powell walked into the Bush White House the first day, he saw everyone around him and said, these people are bleeping crazies.
01:42:49.000And if you want to be the TV doctor who comes out and says, here's what you should do, well then take responsibility when you tell people to do.
01:42:55.000You want to know what the craziest thing I've seen in a long time was?
01:42:59.000There's a video right now out of Dallas.
01:43:01.000I was gonna say something inappropriate, but go ahead, sorry.
01:43:04.000Two guys in the army, and some like medical guy, I don't know who he is.
01:43:07.000They're like, we're gonna go give someone the vaccine.
01:43:09.000And they walk into a 7-Eleven, and they ask a guy if he wants a vaccine, and they just give it to him.
01:43:14.000Now, I don't know if they pre-planned this, what they were actually trying to prove with this, but people think, because the video makes it look like they randomly walked into a store and found a random guy to give a vaccine to.
01:43:25.000And I just thought to myself, how insane is it that they're, at the very least, maybe behind the scenes, off camera, they secretly planned it and looked over his medical records.
01:43:35.000How insane is it that you could be at 7-Eleven and an army guy walks in and says, how would you like to get medicated right now?
01:44:18.000There's no actual government-issued anything.
01:44:20.000They're talking about setting up vaccine sites outside of 7-Elevens, at bars when people are drunk, and I'm like, don't you need someone's medical history before you give them a medication?
01:44:29.000You can't get a tattoo if you're drunk, but you can get a vaccine?
01:45:12.000I'm going to go to my doctor, like every normal person should, and talk about my health, and they'll go through my chart.
01:45:17.000They have a record in your computer, like, you know, someone gets stung by a bee and they get all, you know, allergic and have anaphylactic shock.
01:45:24.000They can be like, oh, well, you know, we should make sure we don't give you this vaccine because of that reason.
01:45:28.000Some random guy walks into a 7-Eleven, it's like, here you go.
01:45:57.000Eli M says, I can't send the link, but if you Google, Black Rose Firearms Chainsaw Bayonet, a company went ahead and made one on USA Today's behalf.
01:47:43.000Pablo Mendoza says, I love how you skipped Gen Xers, LOL Boomers and Millennials, but no Gen X. Well, it's because the Silent Generation has the Gen X. The Boomers have the Millennials.
01:47:52.000There's this jump that happens, you know.
01:48:07.000Something about them drinking a lot of Pepsi in the 90s, I guess.
01:48:09.000Listen, they watched Heathers, and then they grew up, and like, they complained, and they listened to Nirvana, and then they were like, okay, we got it out of our system, we're good.
01:48:15.000They saw an autotune come in the music industry and didn't like it.
01:48:19.000Man, Gen X, what are they, like, late 40s now?
01:48:21.000They're probably in their 40s, late 40s and 50s, yeah.
01:48:23.000Yeah, because if millennials are going into their 40s, then they are in their 40s and 50s right now.
01:48:28.00042, I think, is the first, the youngest Gen Xer.
01:48:30.000Dan and S says, Gen X aren't silent generation, we're a forgotten generation.
01:48:34.000No, no, the silent generation is the generation before boomers.
01:50:28.000Alright, Irish Wristwatcher says, if you were in the apocalypse and you only had to have one gun, what would it be?
01:50:35.000Well, I have not used every single gun, but at this point it would be the SIG M400.
01:50:39.000You see, Crowder just sent me one, and I gotta say, I've got a couple of ARs that shoot 5.56, and I've got... I got a bunch, you know, I got a .50 BMG, we got some .308, we've got some shotguns.
01:50:51.000And I finally get this weapon that Crowder had sent out.
01:50:55.000We went to the range, everybody tried it, and we were all extremely impressed.
01:50:59.000So I got a Sig Treadsight for it, a red dot, and everybody was just extremely comfortable with it.
01:51:18.000Maybe some other people would choose something else.
01:51:19.000I guess if you're talking about guns and you theoretically could pick like any gun from any point, you could choose probably like a selective fire rifle of some sort, I guess.
01:52:17.000I recently got a promotion and had about 11 hours of leadership training.
01:52:21.000There was very little about leadership but a lot of talking about diversity and how we should strive for it.
01:52:25.000Can't give opinion on this because military.
01:52:28.000I'm sure everybody thinks it's the stupidest thing ever and it's making everything fall apart.
01:52:33.000Matthew Mansfield says, comparing Greatest to Millennial Generation from life challenge perspective is intellectually lazy and illustrates panel bias.
01:53:31.000Well, I would rather do term limits than age limits personally, because if I'm 80 and I want to run for president and I'm healthy, I'm down.
01:53:38.000How about if your teeth don't fit, then you shouldn't be able to run for Congress?
01:53:42.000Like Nancy Pelosi sold her teeth don't fit anymore.
01:53:47.000In order to get into any of the chambers, the Senate or the House, There's like a long corridor with water right underneath and there are just logs just placed at random points and in the water, alligators.
01:54:03.000So everyone has to be able to just jump across and it doesn't matter how old you are if you can't do it!
01:54:10.000I feel like Chuck Grassley could do it still.
01:54:12.000Like, I feel like he would wrestle an alligator just for fun.
01:54:16.000He like, he falls in and then, you know, Nancy Pelosi and everyone standing there scared.
01:54:20.000And then he climbs out the other side with his clothes all wrapped in his bun.
01:58:53.000If you in fact say that, walk up to him and go, hello, fellow.
01:58:56.000If you're, if you're afraid of rejection, assume if you're afraid of rejection, you literally like just put it out there enough times you will get, you may be one out of a hundred, but you will get a yes.
01:59:05.000If you just throw yourself out there enough.
01:59:06.000If you like what you're doing, that, that translates, that makes you attractive to women.
01:59:11.000Um, so whatever you like to do, do it, do it and be confident about it.
01:59:14.000Even if it's like playing video games or something super nerdy, like go with it, be with it.
02:01:18.000Especially if there's no music playing.
02:01:20.000There were people who would randomly dance.
02:01:22.000They'd turn on music, and they would just do dances, and people would give them money, and then people would come over and, like, dance with them and hang out.
02:01:28.000You're like, only a certain part of you, but you're counting the rhythm, like 1, 2, 3, 4, in your lower left core, and you just pick the part of your body that's doing the beat, 1, 2, 3, 4, and you subtly move it so that people can't really tell you're moving, but because you're moving, you're in that comfort flow.
02:01:44.000I'd be willing to bet, I'll bet you, that if you go to like, if you're in New York, and you're playing the Thriller, and you're doing the Thriller dance, like, while that song is playing in one iteration, someone will come up and start dancing.
02:01:54.000Yes, because mental illness is rampant in New York.
02:01:58.000He could be living in a cornfield in Omaha.
02:02:00.000I'm just sitting there and saying, you know what?
02:02:02.000Go to places where there are people your age.
02:02:04.000If you're 22 and you're in college, especially, and I guess college is closed now, but try your hardest there, because after college it becomes a lot harder.
02:02:11.000It just does, because you're not around people your age as much.
02:02:17.000When you're done, may I add my two cents?
02:02:19.000I don't know anything about girls, but I would say that if you're working toward a common goal, it becomes a lot easier to have something to talk about in the first place.
02:02:26.000So if you approach someone, for example, in your class or someone who's working on something with you, that's going to be good, too, if you actually want someone who will work with you in life.
02:04:18.000But so I wouldn't waste my time with someone like you.
02:04:20.000What the best fundraisers do is they identify, the way I described it to people when I was training, I was like, you can start to see the signs in someone if they have like a furled brow.
02:05:41.000The best thing you can do is to like go downtown and then just identify a person you want to meet and just start singing that meet love song.
