Join us as we discuss the chaos in Washington, D.C. as the National Guard is deployed and the streets are shut down. We talk to a handful of people who are on the ground, including Elijah Schaefer, Drew Hernandez and Luke Rokoski.
00:00:12.000you The protest in DC is a protest against the Supreme Court.
00:00:42.000is officially starting tomorrow, and tomorrow's the 5th.
00:00:45.000Now, when they initially announced it, they said, you know, Trump tweeted out, be there on the 6th, it's gonna be wild.
00:00:50.000And then other people started announcing that they were actually gonna start getting there a little bit early.
00:00:53.000I wouldn't be surprised if people are already there now.
00:00:56.000In fact, no, I take that back, they are already there now, because the breaking news is that Enrique Tarrio, chairman of the Proud Boys, has been arrested in Washington, D.C.
00:01:04.000And this is because he went on Parler and claimed that he destroyed a banner in D.C.
00:01:11.000at a previous event, where they took a Black Lives Matter banner and burned it.
00:01:22.000Maybe just were in the car or something, or was on them.
00:01:24.000I have no idea, but we'll read into the story.
00:01:26.000And now they're saying the National Guard is being deployed because they think things are going to start picking up and getting a little spicy.
00:01:32.000I myself got a notification from my hotel that things are expected to get... No, they didn't say the end is nigh.
00:02:28.000But I think we're all gonna be down there tomorrow, so first thing is, you know, we're gonna have a crew go down and test the internet at the hotel to make sure it works, but it's a prime location.
00:02:39.000So we're going to be able to see what's going on.
00:02:41.000And if we can get a strong and capable signal while these presses are going on, then I should be coming down for the six and doing this show live, probably from the hotel.
00:02:50.000We'll see how things go, but that should get, uh, you know, we'll see how things play.
00:03:23.000I'm not telling you to buy this stuff because the end of the world is coming or anything like that.
00:03:27.000I just think it's reasonable if you've got a first aid kit, you have some extra water, you know, laying around, maybe just in a closet, and you've got some emergency food.
00:03:40.000So I'll tell you this, if you want to support the show, you want to get a good deal on these emergency food supplies, not too expensive, a hundred bucks, you can go to safeandreadymeals.com.
00:03:49.000Thanks for listening to that sponsor spot, but let's start talking about the news.
00:03:53.000From Fox 5, D.C., Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio arrested in D.C., police say.
00:04:00.000Fox 5 has learned Enrique Tarrio has been arrested.
00:04:03.000Evan Lambert reports Tarrio is facing misdemeanor destruction of property charges in relation to him saying he burned a Black Lives Matter flag that was stolen from a black church in December during a protest in the district.
00:04:13.000Lambert tweeted, two law enforcement sources confirm Enrique Tarrio has been arrested on D.C.
00:04:18.000misdemeanor destruction of property charges.
00:04:20.000DC police confirmed Monday evening they'd arrested the 36-year-old.
00:04:23.000He has been charged with destruction of property, related to that offense.
00:04:26.000Police say at the time of his arrest, Tariq was found to be in possession of two high-capacity firearm magazines.
00:04:32.000He has been additionally charged with possession of high-capacity feeding device.
00:04:36.000So I guess that's related to the magazines.
00:04:38.000That's the crazy thing, people don't know about DC.
00:04:42.000You have to get registered to own ammunition.
00:04:44.000It's like, a lot of places don't even do that.
00:04:45.000Some of the craziest places, it's all about the guns.
00:04:48.000They say earlier on Monday, the Metropolitan African Methodist Episcopal Church in D.C.
00:04:52.000filed a lawsuit against the Proud Boys and Tarrio, alleging that the group scaled its fence and tore down a large Black Lives Matter sign on display.
00:05:00.000It was one of two historically black churches that were vandalized during the protests.
00:05:05.000And they called it like they were saying it was a hate crime and stuff like that.
00:05:08.000And so it was a bunch of proud boys who apparently done it.
00:05:11.000In my opinion, I don't think you should be, you know, taking private property and burning it and destroying it because I'll criticize Antifa for the same thing.
00:05:17.000But I guess because they were calling it racist and Ricky Tarrio, who's not a white man.
00:05:21.000posted on Parler that it was actually him.
00:05:24.000And he said something like, I dare you to charge me with a hate crime.
00:05:27.000Are you guys familiar with what he posted?
00:05:44.000So the chance of a church probably being a majority black church is pretty high since this is a very dense black community.
00:05:50.000But number two, If you understand the entire political spectrum of Proud Boys, there's like two groups they oppose, and that's Antifa anarchists, and then like communist-backed groups, which many people who helped found BLM claim to be behind.
00:06:03.000So they weren't seeing this, I believe, while I obviously think it's kind of stupid to tear something down and just like burn it off of private property, I don't think this was a target on black people.
00:06:11.000I think this was like, we're taking down a communist symbol in a city and showing that we're taking it back for America.
00:06:17.000But that's what I saw, and that's what I thought their motives were.
00:06:19.000I think the funny part about it is, since when the hell does Black Lives Matter care about church?
00:06:26.000Listen, we were there, we were covering that, right?
00:06:30.000The next morning, Black Lives Matter DC held a presser in BLM Plaza, crying and complaining, saying that their black joy was stolen.
00:06:38.000and that all of a sudden they care about church all of a sudden they care about these historic black churches and it's like these are the same people that don't want any form of religion even whether it's jesus whatever it is completely out of society so all of a sudden black lives matter cares about church but they just arrested a black guy for doing it Enrique Tarrio is half black.
00:07:06.000I think it's really dumb because I don't like playing those games on race with people.
00:07:10.000I shouldn't have to bring that up about what Enrique's race is or anybody here.
00:07:14.000Yeah, but you gotta flip it on their head, man.
00:07:16.000But when they say it was a bunch of white dudes stealing, you know, Black Joy or whatever, it's like, actually the guy who claimed, he's claiming he did it.
00:07:22.000I don't know if he was, he was, he did, but I mean, it sounds reasonable, but he's, he's, he's like the Proud Boy.
00:07:53.000There was a battle between BLM, Antifa activists, and the Proud Boys.
00:07:58.000And so they're like, kind of like how Antifa keeps ripping down American flags and burning them, because they think that Proud Boys symbolize American patriotism.
00:08:05.000They kind of went back and said, well, let's rip down their signs too.
00:08:09.000I think it's even worse than that, Elijah, because they're not only going after Proud Boys, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and D.C.
00:08:17.000are going after innocent Trump supporters.
00:08:18.000You have elderly couples, you have young people that just support the president that are walking down Black Lives Matter Plaza just back to their hotels getting physically assaulted because of supporting the president.
00:08:30.000So it's like, The media will take this and say, oh, the Proud Boys are attacking black people.
00:08:35.000But the reason why the Proud Boys responded was because innocent Trump supporters were being physically assaulted all night long the past two events.
00:08:42.000And the MPD, because they have their hands tied, they just kind of shoo them away and continue and move on and move on.
00:08:49.000One of the top stories on Reddit just a few days ago was this church actually suing the Proud Boys and now we have the Washington Post confirming that he was arrested specifically for burning the Black Lives Stolen banner.
00:09:03.000This is Washington Post just reporting on it right now.
00:09:40.000When the Proud Boys romped around D.C., there's a video of them really just clobbering this Antifa dude.
00:09:46.000Now apparently, there's like an Antifa guy who was fighting with them, got separated from his group, him and this chick, and then the Proud Boys just would not relent.
00:09:53.000This guy's trying to leave, he's clearly lost the fight, and the Proud Boys run up, one guy grabs the woman, a Proud Boy guy, grabs a woman by her ponytail and like pulls her hair back, and I'm like, dude, that is loser Antifa-style fighting.
00:10:06.000Grabbing a woman's hair from behind and pulling, you're a dude, come on.
00:10:09.000But repeatedly pummeling this guy, this Antifa dude, as he's clearly no threat to you or anybody else.
00:10:15.000Then they went and they tore down that sign.
00:10:17.000My response was like, sounds a whole lot like what Antifa does.
00:10:21.000If you want to defend yourself from Antifa, you should absolutely defend yourself from somebody who wants to beat you up, who is attacking you, or defend others.
00:10:29.000But when they're running away, tail between their legs, pathetic, let them go.
00:10:32.000Yeah, but see, Drew brought this up and I think this is where people don't understand.
00:10:35.000I'm not defending the violence because I myself am not like an extremely violent person, not even mildly violent.
00:10:41.000People even like discredit me or try to slap me on the face for the fact that like, oh, hey, you know, you should fight back a little more and defend yourself.
00:10:47.000But when I see those events, you have to look at the whole timeline.
00:10:51.000From the very beginning these Antifa groups, which are often protected by the MPD. They have a reserve base
00:10:58.000It's the Black Lives Matter Plaza, which essentially right 14th Street or whatever right there by the White House
00:11:03.000Street Yeah, right right by Lafayette Plaza Park and they get they
00:11:06.000run back to this area protected by police Then they come out of the sides the police let them leave
00:11:11.000and come back but nobody else So if you look like you're in black block or whatever, you
00:11:15.000can go in and out I've experienced this if I'm wearing black block I can get
00:11:17.000in dress like a journalist No, so you go in they come out they like fireworks. They
00:11:22.000assault people with skateboards. They punch people They hit people all the time. Like I watch is happening
00:11:28.000So when the proud boys aren't just like going there and being like, let's go pummel some Antifa. Let's go pummel
00:11:33.000some Black Lives Matter It's like these guys are extremely
00:11:37.000Masculine men who a lot of them. It's a part of a club I'm sure a lot of them feel a lot of the same reasons why people might join Antifa.
00:11:43.000They might have been, you know, feel a little bit rejected from society, some of them, and they found a lot of camaraderie and brotherhood.
00:11:48.000There's some positive elements here, but they get riled up because the violence starts happening and they go, and somebody is always like, we need to fight back.
00:11:55.000We need to show these people they can't keep assaulting us.
00:11:57.000If the police won't step in, then we will.
00:12:20.000I think they've come to the point now, the Proud Boys have realized there's no point in even trying to do the right thing, as far as the press cares, because they're gonna get lied about anyway.
00:12:36.000The relationship between Antifa and the police is something that's really peculiar because there have been many documented instances of police officers dressing up as Antifa and then committing property destruction, as has happened throughout many protests.
00:12:50.000And now to hear your reports of them kind of coddling them, what's the most egregious example that you saw of this?
00:12:56.000Or what would you say sticks out to you most?
00:13:15.000You'll see elderly couples walking down the street, teenagers, young kids.
00:13:19.000The first mega rally was they were holding down the fort, Black Lives Matter Plaza.
00:13:24.000They issue out text messages saying, we have to defend our territory, we have to defend BLM Plaza, and whoever's wearing a Trump hat, whether it's an elderly person or a young kid, they will go to town on them.
00:13:35.000So when that happens, the police will just shoo them away, and then the Proud Boys will see that, like, all night long, and then they'll respond to the violence and come out on the streets because the NPD isn't doing much.
00:13:46.000But what you do see Is when the Proud Boys come out, the MPD will literally grab Antifa, grab Black Lives Matter, pull them behind the police line.
00:14:04.000There will literally be times where I'm watching this and I'm like, these are the same people that have been calling to defund the police All year long, and there they are, being defended by the police.
00:14:31.000I saw there was a dude who looked like he was wearing Proud Boys colors and he's screaming, F the police, F the blue.
00:14:37.000And then you see that video, this is from Ford Fisher, where they actually throw the thin blue line flag on the ground and start stomping on it and then just chuck it into the street.
00:15:24.000And another journalist who's American media, I'm not going to say where from, was saying, oh no, you obviously don't realize the rules of Antifa.
00:15:30.000So they're going, you know, journalists saying that they follow the rules of anarchists.
00:15:34.000And so then it goes further where the guy goes, he's getting a kick out of him.
00:16:13.000Where it's like, the left has been screaming, the Proud Boys walk up to a cop and shake their hand, and they're like, the police are protecting the Proud Boys, and now it's inverted.
00:16:47.000You were, I think you were in New York.
00:16:49.000I don't know where you were, but you were covering Antifa and it kind of shocked me because I think Antifa was literally like on the sidewalks.
00:16:59.000And I was filming him, like, airing out tires.
00:17:00.000I think it's when you got assaulted and you got hit for the first time.
00:17:03.000Well, when you got assaulted, I was there too.
00:17:05.000And I remember a guy walking behind you.
00:19:18.000That's a relic to show you that, like, that's a failure of the police in our state right now, where the fact is, is that if that can happen, if people can get their property stolen, illegal fires could get lit.
00:19:27.000And guess who I kept seeing getting arrested for fighting back?
00:19:31.000So, one of the first events I went to, I've been covering, we didn't call them Antifa back during the Occupy Wall Street days, we just called them black bloc anarchists or whatever, but they're not anarchists.
00:19:41.000Like, I was friends with the anarchists.
00:19:55.000I don't believe in, you know, anarchy is an without-archy authority.
00:19:58.000I'm not that, you know, far libertarian on the spectrum, but I'm pretty left-libertarian on a lot of issues.
00:20:04.000And so I was hanging out at Occupy Wall Street, and I'll tell you, the actual anarchists were complaining the whole time, saying, sitting down, having a discussion, like, convincing people of how we all work together and cooperate is anarchy.
00:20:18.000Not one person beating the other, demanding they do as they're told.
00:20:25.000Using force and extortion to push your ideas is something that's bad.
00:20:28.000I mean, that's widely accepted by a lot of anarchists.
00:20:31.000And there was a lot of very interesting, smart discussions at Occupy Wall Street, which I think, you know, I think that that kind of sentiment, this is interesting because we really have to talk about the kind of political climate right now.
00:20:42.000Because I bet there's going to be a lot of left-wingers that are going to be very disenfranchised with Joe Biden.
00:20:47.000There's also a lot of right-wingers that are absolutely pissed off at the authorities, especially the police officers.
00:20:53.000This Saturday, it was Ezra Levant posting, even admitting himself.
00:20:57.000A rebel, like a conservative, very conservative.
00:21:53.000And so, you know, I'll give him respect for this op-ed he wrote.
00:21:56.000The one thing I got wrong was it was very derisive of Trump supporters saying they're cultists and stuff like that.
00:22:00.000You don't need to go there because you can just talk about the populist left hates the establishment.
00:22:04.000The populist right hates the establishment.
00:22:06.000With Trump being pushed out of power, that means you're going to have two out of power populist factions who hate the establishment.
00:22:12.000If there's three realities here and two of them are united in their hatred of the establishment, will Antifa and the leftists look the other way when Proud Boys are the ones, you know, yelling at cops and screaming and the proud boys announced that this
00:22:24.000specific week that we saw this in a post by in recai talking about maybe we
00:22:27.000should wear all black yelp maybe we should not identify ourselves as proud
00:22:32.000boy so that's also another contributing factor to what's kind of happening
00:22:35.000here and how it's unfolding because i really do think the establishment is
00:22:38.000deathly afraid of these sites coming together because they're gonna realize they
00:22:41.000have a lot more in common than they have
00:22:43.000different from each other what happens when proud boys and conservatives do
00:22:47.000show up tomorrow on the 6th and they are in Black Block.
00:22:52.000If those aren't familiar, it's like they're wearing black sweaters and black pants and masks or whatever.
00:22:56.000You won't be able to tell the difference between Antifa and Proud Boys.
00:23:07.000And how is Antifa going to fight Proud Boys if they all look the same?
00:23:09.000How are Proud Boys going to fight Antifa?
00:23:11.000I suppose if you're in disguise as Antifa you know I'll hit somebody else, but what if a Proud Boy punches a Proud Boy thinking he's Antifa?
00:23:58.000So they don't get recognized by the police officers because they're all they all mesh in.
00:24:02.000And we saw this tactic not just used in the United States, but also very prominently in Hong Kong, where they use black bloc tactics to an amazing extent to a point where they don't even have to assault the press.
00:24:12.000They just have a team of umbrella people come around.
00:24:15.000and set up this huge umbrella circle around them.
00:24:24.000And they were able to galvanize a lot of these people.
00:24:26.000I mean, in Hong Kong, they're literally protesting for their lives.
00:24:29.000There's people disappearing right now from China because they made a Facebook post or a social media post against the Chinese government.
00:24:36.000We'll get into the big, we've got a big, big story.
00:24:38.000I just got, I just got, I just got a text from, I'm not going to say who, but Very, very prominent political commentator freaking out over this big story about what's going on with Jack Ma.
00:24:45.000We'll get to that, but I don't want to gloss over what's going to happen right now.
00:24:49.000We got more breaking news, and this is the best time to jump right into it.
00:25:37.000Let me tell you what I find particularly interesting about this.
00:25:41.000The Washington Post released an op-ed by 10 former secretaries of defense, defense secretaries.
00:25:47.000All of them said, involving the military in election disputes is dangerous.
00:25:53.000A lot of people, a lot of articles popped up where they said defense secretaries are worried Trump is going to stage a coup and things like that, or they fear that Trump will use the military for these reasons.
00:26:02.000But there's something they said that was particularly interesting.
00:26:05.000In the op-ed they said, we are calling upon Christopher Miller, acting Secretary of Defense, to uphold the peaceful transition And they also said, any civilian or military who support Trump in using the military to subvert this election will face potential criminal penalties and things of that nature.
00:26:24.000They're basically saying, you better not, if Trump gives you the order.
00:26:29.000But they don't understand, you know, Trump's not gonna come out and order them to just take over the country.
00:26:35.000But they're basically, I think the point of this op-ed was to tell Trump's new acting Secretary of Defense, by name, they said, we call upon him not to support the president.
00:26:43.000Here's the thing you gotta understand about Chris Miller.
00:26:46.000Donald Trump removed the top civilian leadership at the Pentagon, replaced it with people who are fans of Trump.
00:26:53.000So now you've got people in the Pentagon ordering the National Guard, or approving it, who are Trump supporters.
00:27:00.000tomorrow, at the biggest Trump-supporting event we probably will ever see, tomorrow on the 6th, Trump's new acting Secretary of Defense saying, yes, we would like the National Guard to be deployed to D.C.
00:27:12.000And what happens if all these Trump supporters are on the ground, and the cops are doing something, and then they just order the National Guard to defend their right to peacefully protest, or something like that?
00:27:22.000Is that why Bowser ordered that the National Guard wouldn't be armed?
00:27:24.000She was like, basically saying... Is that what she said?
00:27:26.000Yeah, I think in Politico, I think that might be the same one, she was like, no guns, Bowser ordered the National Guard personnel no arms when responding to protests, that they will not perform surveillance, searches, or seizures of protesters.
00:27:38.000This is really interesting because we just had, look, this op-ed from the Washington Post, clearly these former defense secretaries are worried that Miller would say to the military, like, we're not leaving.
00:27:49.000Why would they write it unless they were at some concerns that could happen?
00:27:52.000The fact that they said you could face criminal penalties if you do this, it was like an open letter warning.
00:27:57.000If you lose that fight, if you come out for Trump and you lose, we will lock you up, right?
00:28:03.000Christopher Miller's not saying, yes, of course, the National Guard, please, you know, deploy them into D.C., where all of our supporters will be.
00:28:12.000Is Miller just saying, I don't know, the mayor asked for it, sure, fine, whatever?
00:28:15.000Well, you got to look at two things here.
00:28:17.000Number one, if we can go back to summer, where we had a same problem where the mayor did not want National Guard deployed when there was actual civil unrest.
00:28:25.000There was real violence occurring and assault on federal property, right?
00:28:29.000And so there were, even though I know technically National Guard isn't a federal branch of the military, people say, you know, if you're getting into semantics, but technically it's still military.
00:28:38.000When federal property in the People's House was under attack, she was saying, you know, this is not what we want.
00:28:44.000She painted the slogan in Washington, D.C.
00:28:47.000and then later was also attacked by the very activist she was supposedly supporting.
00:28:51.000But I'm saying like this is where we have to look at what's what's ironic about this as we switch into the new year Yeah, is that around this time?
00:28:56.000I remember like the intercept which is extremely dishonest publication in many ways.
00:29:00.000So they do since we're on your show I'll give them some credence.
00:29:02.000They have some some great journalists still at work.
00:29:04.000They used to a broken clock as well twice a day No, they used to have Glenn Greenwald and for that I would give myself so much anymore Not so much.
00:29:11.000But I remember that one of their biggest criticisms of even early on in the protests is they were basically saying, oh, Elijah is, you know, basically such a trick artist that he would try to manipulate his footage so that Trump would fall for his ploy to try to deploy a National Guard into D.C.
00:29:26.000Like, these publications were mocking— Wait, wait, wait, hold on.
00:29:29.000They claimed you were trying to orchestrate— They said that Trump fell for my selectively edited videos when he called upon them To say that that's why we need National Guard in DC is if me filming a live event is selective editing.
00:30:20.000I find it so ridiculously interesting that these people are literally, they're literally the ones that are totally anti-law enforcement, Anti-police, anti-everything, but now I can almost guarantee you that this mayor called the National Guard to protect Black Lives Matter activists.
00:30:39.000I'm sorry, no, no, the mask was ripped clean off.
00:30:42.000We know Black Lives Matter is not anti-cop because there's a video from Wisconsin, in the Milwaukee area, Where Black Lives Matter shows up to this guy's house and they're screaming and flashing lights in his house.
00:30:52.000The guy pulls up a shotgun to the window and he points it.
00:30:55.000Probably a bad idea, but he's defending his own home.
00:31:12.000Do you guys think that the majority of armed forces, men and women, support Donald Trump?
00:31:19.000I would say it's a mix of people who just want a job and people who are patriotic.
00:31:23.000Honestly, when I talk to people in the armed services, this is very unpopular opinion, but when I talk to people, a lot of people that I know got into the armed services because they just wanted to either clean up their life, they didn't know what else to do, or they also were tired of not being respected and they wanted to do something honorable, which is a total honorable way.
00:31:40.000And then there's this other half of people that I knew that are not necessarily from Los Angeles where I grew up, but people from Orange County, let's say, more red areas, got in because they're Republicans.
00:31:48.000Republican and they love this nation of the people who just want a job are they not politically active then do they not
00:32:30.000I just mean... No, but does the leadership... Because to me, what I think is that, from my understanding and really talking to people who serve, I come from a family of everybody's serving.
00:32:38.000I'm kind of breaking that generational service.
00:32:42.000But usually you talk to soldiers, you talk to gruntmen, you even talk to officers, and they usually talk about, ultimately, when I'm in battle, when I'm in war, there's some sort of leader above me that I trust, ultimately.
00:32:54.000That if they told me, if like the president said, we're going to war, and they told me, no, stay in your barracks, do not leave right now, I'm staying in my barracks, I'm not leaving.
00:33:01.000Now, anybody who's in the service can correct me on this.
00:33:05.000They have their allegiance to some sort of commanding officer.
00:33:07.000So what I would be more concerned about Is not whether gruntmen or whether just officers are supporting Trump, but is there enough people in command and leadership that have the authority to command those troops that respect him?
00:33:18.000Not even like really high-ranking, like medium-ranking individuals.
00:33:28.000Yeah, commanders and people who—there could be—this is what people need to understand about, you know, these defense secretaries worried about Trump in a military action thing.
00:33:38.000You don't need to worry about the generals ordering the military to support Trump.
00:33:44.000It's going to be if there's people in D.C.
00:33:46.000who are mid-rank with a decent amount of men beneath them, and they just tell them to do something because they're defending the president.
00:33:52.000They know maybe they're defying orders of their commanding officer, but they're like, the president says to do this or want something.
00:33:58.000Will there be people loyal to the president over, say, their immediate commanding officer?
00:34:02.000I'm not entirely convinced that would be the case.
00:34:04.000Like, we talked about this before the show.
00:34:06.000Most people would probably just be like, I trust my commanding officer, they know them.
00:34:09.000But the bigger issue at hand is, when it comes to the National Guard being deployed, it's coming with the approval of Christopher Miller, who is, like they say, a Trump loyalist, right?
00:34:17.000Maybe that's just kind of a way to drag him.
00:34:22.000What I'm telling people is, if you're wrong, if you think these National Guard dudes are gonna be ordered to stage a coup, like, there's gonna be some high-ranking dude who says, we're all here for Trump, it's time to retake this country, charge, and then we're gonna seize the White House, it's never gonna happen.
00:34:37.000What I'm worried about is, if Miller, or I don't know to what degree he can actually order these dudes around, maybe he can't, but if some, like, officer, says hey guys can you just uh stand guard around the white house while this protest is going on and then that is the order that is used by trump or whatever to maintain control or something like people think the order is going to be overt you're going to know what it is a lot of these guys are going to hear from their commanding officer
00:35:02.000Hey, we're going to be guarding this bridge right here.
00:35:05.000You know, there's some concerns about potential for violence.
00:35:07.000And they'll go, okay, you got it, because it sounds reasonable, right?
00:35:09.000And then it turns out the actual reason for guarding the bridge was to shut down some kind of flow of traffic that would benefit Trump.
00:35:14.000Long story short, you don't know what those at the top really, really want.
00:35:19.000They'll give you what sounds like an innocuous order.
00:35:22.000And it could be the order that is used to stage a coup or do something like that.
00:36:48.000I mean, retrospectively to the actual area, it's just a few city blocks.
00:36:52.000When you're talking about these protests and where they shut down, even for the inaugural parade, it's not that large of an area.
00:36:58.000But how many people were in Kenosha riding?
00:37:01.000Well, that's my point though, is that the National Guard was there, but they didn't do anything, meaning like you were saying about taking the orders is my point, is they just kind of stayed by the courthouse, and they just stayed and guarded this while the city burned, and that's to your point, is that the National Guard is just taking orders, they're not doing what they want.
00:37:17.000Luke, you told me a story about, I think it was the G20 in Pittsburgh?
00:37:20.000Where all of, you told me this story a long time ago, that you had everybody standing in a park and then the police were ordered to stand around the park.
00:37:28.000And then when people got bored, they all left.
00:37:30.000And the cops were just standing, looking into an empty park for like, you know, a certain amount of time.
00:37:46.000I was there as I usually am, you know, or was during these kind of events, and they just literally encircled everyone, and they started closing in and in, and they set up a, you know, a perimeter, closed everyone in.
00:37:57.000You try to get out, they beat the crap out of you with batons.
00:37:59.000I got a couple batons, handcuffed everyone, and then I remember when they were pepper-spraying random people who would just talk about their rights or saying, hey, this is bad, this is illegal, you shouldn't be arresting people who are just here protesting, and they just, like, literally were macing people It's conservative to say they're getting pepper sprayed in their eyes.
00:38:15.000They're like, but listen, it's breaking.
00:38:37.000And then you're getting the equivalent of scabs.
00:38:39.000You're getting people who are like, I I don't care I'll do anything for money and now they're
00:38:43.000coming in and now they're gonna start cracking skulls and for a while
00:38:46.000It was really crazy when the cops were pushing around conservatives
00:38:49.000They'd give him the benefit of the doubt like there's some footage from DC where the cops are shoving proud boys and
00:38:53.000the proud boys are Like thank you officer. Thank you officer
00:38:55.000Like still not quite getting it until the cops started defending protecting Antifa and now they're starting to be
00:39:01.000like, hey, wait a minute We defended you while they were calling to take your budgets, your pension, and to take your job, and now you're attacking us?
00:39:10.000Let me tell you, I told this story before.
00:39:49.000There's a quote that comes to mind that I kind of want to read here, and it says, Well, listen, it's really, really simple what's going on right now.
00:40:50.000I wouldn't want to look like the people arrested in Portland.
00:40:53.000No, you look at these people who have had their restaurants shut down, whose employees have been laid off and there's nothing left.
00:41:00.000And these protests are turning into regular people being like, you've destroyed my life.
00:41:05.000And the cop sees that and says, That's a coward and a traitor.
00:41:08.000be in that position. I'll take my paycheck. Just tell me who like I will
00:41:12.000get dropped to my knees and lick the boot of anybody if it makes sure I don't
00:41:16.000end up like them. That's a coward and a traitor. You know, I've been I've lost
00:41:19.000thousands of followers even from Trump supporters and conservatives over the
00:41:23.000years by literally laying this out, just telling people like, listen, I don't I
00:41:27.000don't back blue that doesn't back America.
00:41:30.000And you were saying this earlier before the show, Tim, like, the Constitution is being just thrown in the trash in multiple big blue states.
00:41:36.000You know, cops have to understand, I've been saying this a lot, is police officers, it's not enough to sit here and say, well, we're just doing our job, you know, we're just doing our job.
00:41:44.000Like, you should have been educated, you should have known and been aware that you took a constitutional oath to protect and serve the people in the context of the
00:41:53.000Constitution of the United States of America.
00:41:55.000They actually are getting orders down the pipe that violate that and violate civil rights in
00:42:00.000the United States of America, then we're not going to support you. We're not going to support
00:42:29.000But here's, I think it's intentional because there's two parts of this.
00:42:31.000Number one, Okay, when I was in Seattle, I tend to try to get a lot of good contacts in major police departments.
00:42:38.000Obviously, if you're going to be working behind lines, even incognito sometimes, you've got to make sure you're not going to fall victim to some of the intense... So do you notify police departments before going undercover?
00:42:49.000Even this last time I was in D.C., I noted some MPD.
00:42:52.000Even when I was in Portland, they tried to arrest me and I had told them who I was and they let me go.
00:42:56.000Meaning there are some very good officers who are just trying to uphold the law.
00:43:00.000But what I did know is by talking to different officers, when did you notice, let's say this is specifically Seattle,
00:43:05.000when did you notice things going downhill?
00:43:07.000And I started asking this back in January when I got a concussion and the police did nothing
00:43:12.000when the person assaulted me in front of them.
00:43:13.000It's a common story, but people hear all the time, So I was like, well, when did this happen?
00:43:17.000The police don't arrest someone who assaults someone in front of them.
00:43:21.000And he goes, well, what happened is, number one, bad distribution of power where bureaucrats have too much power that are not directly connected to the police department.
00:43:30.000This includes cities like Portland, where the police chief is appointed by the mayor and the mayor shares power over the police department.
00:43:35.000And he's thinking about weird leftist, radical leftist policies in his city, not how do we uphold law and order.
00:43:42.000But on top of that, he goes, that pushes a lot of the cops who just want to uphold law
00:44:13.000And a lot of ex-military are coming in without training with civilian training or working with these people.
00:44:18.000And they're beginning to come in with military training.
00:44:20.000And so the exact opposite effect is happening where they tried to keep out the extreme people.
00:44:24.000But now the police academies are accepting basically just Soldiers, and the police are becoming more like a military than like a civilian force.
00:44:33.000Yeah, but sure, but even a soldier swears an oath to uphold the Constitution.
00:44:37.000They're training in the military, not that it disqualifies them.
00:44:39.000I'm just saying, when you get a department of a couple hundred guys that are all just trained in the military, and it's not first like they're being introduced to combat through this police training, it's going to be a whole different way of enforcing things.
00:44:51.000And every officer has told me you could see the difference.
00:44:53.000The left has been saying that for a long time.
00:44:55.000But people like Matt Taibbi and Glenn Greenwald specifically, who are some of the few leftists with, you know, honor and will call out the censorship, will call out the lies and the smears from, you know, intelligence agencies going after the president.
00:45:16.000What you were talking about reminds me of this kind of meme going around right now about how, allegedly, Stalin was teaching his counselors how to rule.
00:45:24.000And the story goes that Stalin took a chicken, traumatized it, ripped its feathers out, threw it naked on the floor, and then started throwing the chicken pebbles and walking away.
00:45:35.000And allegedly, Stalin said, quote, You could do anything you want to the people so long as they believe you are the source of their survival.
00:46:19.000And so I think it's like it's getting up there.
00:46:21.000So the question I had was, when you look at the Arab Spring, one of the issues they said as to why the revolutions took place, why they started, was because people were going hungry.
00:46:30.000They couldn't work enough to get their food.
00:46:34.000But if people are, like Luke was bringing up, if they're getting food, They'll take abuse.
00:46:38.000They'll ignore certain things like, I don't know, whatever, I got my food.
00:46:41.000It's kind of like how you get like a lion, and if you give the lion endless amounts of food and so it's always just well-fed, it won't attack smaller animals.
00:47:43.000When you go to when you go look at steak, for instance, even at Costco wholesale, I mean, if you're looking at like something even not even the best cut of meat possible, just like a New York strip, you're still looking at about fifty four bucks for a pack of meat and you're going for steak.
00:47:56.000I mean, at that price, I remember just last year before all the riots, everything happened and the shortages.
00:48:01.000I was just talking to a construction company, and they told me to get ready for the next year because raw materials are about to skyrocket.
00:50:29.000Four years in jail for citizen reporting.
00:50:32.000And there's a couple, you know, possibilities here.
00:50:35.000It could be that because China knows how this sickness, how the coronavirus originated, if they know who the patient zero is, if they know that they might be handling this sickness, the coronavirus way better than we are, and they could be hiding that information.
00:50:52.000Or it could be that they haven't handled it and that they're just covering up the deaths of millions of people, which they historically did before.
00:50:59.000So both of those possibilities could be true.
00:51:02.000Both of them are pretty terrifying and scary.
00:51:04.000I want to tell you, we're going to combine these stories, my friends.
00:51:07.000We don't just randomly talk about China partying and then talk about the money supply.
00:51:47.000At the Bund Summit in Shanghai on the 24th of October, Ma criticized the lawmakers that enforce global financial regulations, the Basel Accords, saying they were like an old people's club.
00:51:58.000According to the Times, Ma, a Communist Party member, said, the Basel Accords are like an old people's club.
00:52:02.000We can't use yesterday's methods to regulate the future.
00:52:06.000The billionaire said the Basel Accords framework stifled opportunities for young people in developing nations, and that regulatory rules suppressed innovation.
00:52:13.000Before the summit, Ant Group was preparing for a $37 billion initial public offering, and would have valued the company at more than $300 billion.
00:54:27.000You can't say that there's some global New World Order or Bilderberg group that's causing But you can say that when crises hit on a global scale, very important people oftentimes can disappear, find themselves losing everything that matters to them, and the entire world sees some sort of structural change that seems to benefit the wealthy and the ruling class, seems to screw over the middle class.
00:54:47.000And then at the end of this crisis, there seems to be new organizations that come up, let's just say like NGOs or even new banking systems or unified trade agreements that seem to help fix and bring it all together and power gets centralized into people.
00:55:00.000One of the things that China Uncensored said when they were on this show that really sticks out to me is the fact that it's our participation and the US establishment propping up China that makes them as powerful as they are right now.
00:55:12.000And it's literally American elites that are causing China to be as powerful on the world stage and if it wasn't for them, they wouldn't exist and they wouldn't be as powerful.
00:55:20.000Our economy is being crushed right now.
00:55:23.000And they say they're moving the timeline for China's economy to overtake ours.
00:55:28.000So I don't think any of these people really care.
00:55:45.000Let's say you've got a thousand bucks in the bank, right?
00:55:49.000And then you write a check to a friend who then cashes that in their bank and it becomes available immediately.
00:55:57.000Did that one bank take the thousand dollars from your account, physical cash, put it in a cart, wheel it down the street to the other bank and hand it to them so that money is now in that bank?
00:56:06.000Or is it literally just a number in a computer that could be changed?
00:56:10.000So I got a crazy story, one of the craziest things I've ever seen that made me like, go, what?
00:56:15.000I had a friend who was, we went to a bank, because he was negative, his account went negative.
00:56:20.000And so he was like, I gotta go complain, because there was a transaction that was doubled on accident, and that put me negative, and then it threw everything out of whack, because then he got charged 35 bucks, and then his next deposit didn't, you know, get him out of it, and then he got charged again, and it kept going negative.
00:56:34.000We walk into this bank, and there's a guy sitting behind this desk, and he's like an older, middle-aged dude, this is in Chicago, and he pulls up the dude's account, and I swear, I don't know what he was showing us, maybe it was a trick, maybe it wasn't real, but he shows his account as negative, like 300 bucks, and he just erased the negative sign and says, how does that look?
00:57:10.000So I was thinking to myself, I'm like, I wonder if this dude knew he was getting laid off and was like, I don't care, and just typed numbers into his account to make the money be there.
00:57:17.000But I'm like, how do they verify that?
00:57:32.000That's our financial system explained.
00:57:35.000And of course, whenever there's, you know, the military-industrial complex, big pharma, the medical-industrial complex coming in for their gibs, of course that machine's turned on right away.
00:57:44.000People come in there for, you know, health and human services.
00:57:48.000Something to help out the common, you know, whatever, whatever the common good is, or whatever the term people, or whatever people socially want to improve, you know, life.
00:57:56.000No, sorry, the machine doesn't work then, which is absolutely ridiculous that we're going through this.
00:58:02.000What I was thinking is like, where is, so all of our money is basically digital.
00:58:06.000Has anyone really thought about how Bitcoin has a ledger with crypto that secures it, and banks just kind of write a number down?
00:58:13.000Well, you know, what shocked me, I think, the most was, I remember I was watching a documentary on the 2008 financial crisis, and I might have the numbers a little bit wrong, but I think they said that $2 trillion disappeared from the global economy.
00:58:52.000Where do, what do you mean it disappeared?
00:58:54.000Well, after the 2008 housing crisis, the Federal Reserve engaged in secret bailouts where they were literally printing money and giving it digitally to foreign banks.
00:59:04.000I actually confronted Ben Bernanke on the largest kind of bailout in recorded human history that no one even talks about and he had a fit about it.
00:59:13.000He literally tried to rip my microphone away from me because I asked him, you know, how does it feel knowing that you committed one of the largest bailouts and no one even knows about it?
00:59:22.000And we're talking about You know, with a T. Trillions of dollars that literally go from one hand to another hand.
00:59:28.000Yes, we're here now and look at the national debt.
00:59:30.000Look at the price of common household goods of what they are now compared to what they were just even 50 years ago.
00:59:38.000Look man, I was talking to, so we're looking at like crazy farmland, crazy open space in West Virginia.
00:59:44.000And I'm hearing from these agents, they're like, we can't keep inventory.
00:59:48.000The moment land pops up in West Virginia, gone.
00:59:52.000The value of homes is going up outside of New York and outside of these big cities.
00:59:56.000Property value is starting to go up like crazy because nobody wants to live in these cities anymore.
01:00:00.000But, it's like I was saying earlier, actually I think it was Chris who was saying this, that the things wealthy people can buy right now are hyper-inflating because the demand for these goods is high for several reasons.
01:00:20.000Why did Bitcoin double, almost triple in value in a month?
01:00:26.000Now people will say, oh, you know, you hear from all these Bitcoin deniers where they're like, it's just a scam.
01:00:32.000And it's like, dude, people have confidence in it retaining its value enough to where it was going for like, 13,000 a month and at two months ago, and now it's at
01:00:42.000$30,000 so I'll tell you this you can look at your Bitcoin transaction history, and you can go back
01:00:49.000Go back to like for those of you that have Bitcoin I've had Bitcoin for a long time and someone sent me like a
01:00:55.000Couple bit a couple dollars worth of Bitcoin a long time ago. It's now worth like 200 bucks
01:01:00.000It's just, you look at it, that's crazy.
01:01:04.000I think, here's what I was telling people.
01:01:07.000What are the rich people who have connections doing right now?
01:01:10.000They're fleeing cities, they're buying up property like crazy, and they're getting off the US dollar.
01:01:15.000When CNBC says the dollar is in a downward spiral, and Bitcoin is through the roof, I hope y'all are paying attention to what we're potentially facing.
01:01:25.000So I'll put it this way, you know, I've had people say to me... We did a promo to start the show with the Safe and Ready Meals thing, right?
01:01:42.000And I'm like, I don't know if I would tell people I think the end is nigh.
01:01:46.000Like, the world's gonna end and we're gonna be walking around like it's Fallout, you know, the video game, and fighting zombies or anything like that.
01:01:51.000But, uh, when was the last time the US printed, what, like, trillions of dollars?
01:02:06.000And what historically happens when money is mass-produced and mass-printed?
01:02:11.000You face hyperinflation, or collapse of the currency, and then you combine that with rich people buying up land like crazy and fleeing to places like Idaho, Iowa, Wyoming, West Virginia, and you need to ask yourself, why is it that people with the money are trying to spend their money as fast as possible?
01:02:36.000I'm not going to pretend I can see the future, and I know.
01:02:39.000But I just look at, like, here's the way I tell people.
01:02:42.000When you're out, and you guys might get this, when you're out in a conflict, in a riot or whatever, or when you're in a big protest, and then you see a bunch of people, then you see a bunch of people start running in a certain direction, right?
01:02:55.000When I see that, I think, they must have seen something, or someone did, and they're running for a reason.
01:03:01.000Sometimes they run because they got scared of a car backfiring.
01:03:04.000But sometimes someone saw the National Guard or some riot cop aiming a beanbag gun or tear gas and so they ran.
01:03:12.000I run perpendicular to the direction they're running because I don't want to be in that crowd.
01:03:17.000But I look to the people and I see where they're running to.
01:03:21.000It's almost like when a storm is about to come, you see all the birds leaving like they do in the movies.
01:03:25.000When the rich people are lighting their money up, like just getting rid of it as fast as possible.
01:03:30.000The US is printing, you know, trillions of dollars record, like, you know, money, money supply going up and we're seeing land get sold like crazy.
01:03:40.000Like, don't you think at a certain point, the people who have connections that are in the know are making the moves before you catch on because they want you holding the bag or they don't want to be holding the bag when, when the, when the, when the drop comes.
01:03:54.000I don't know what you guys' view is on this, but I think I'm a huge believer in the end times and Bible prophecy, and I think that the Antichrist is a reality, and I think the agenda is obviously there.
01:04:55.000We're also seeing specifically an MRNA vaccine, a new technological advancement with many large institutions saying you won't be able to participate in our economy unless you have this vaccine.
01:05:08.000So that's also another aspect of this to kind of And in Bible prophecy, that's the final showdown.
01:05:12.000You won't be able to access the economy without the Mark of the Beast, which is an act of worship to pretty much Satan in the flesh.
01:05:19.000Yeah, and even from my understanding, though, I don't have it up here.
01:05:21.000It also comes up in Daniel and Isaiah.
01:05:23.000The whole point of biblical prophecy is that not only will people be trading and be given
01:05:28.000in marriage, the world will be like it was, but the key thing is that the Antichrist is
01:05:32.000meant to bring the world together into one world government, and then he'll sit on the
01:05:36.000throne in the temple rebuilt on the Temple Mount in Israel, and he'll call himself God
01:05:41.000and people will follow, and anybody who doesn't take whatever the mark is is going to be seen
01:06:12.000And it says that the 10 kingdoms will serve under him.
01:06:15.000And it specifically says, this is what's crazy, the 10 kingdoms of the world, whatever that means, will rise up and he'll come above them.
01:06:22.000And there's this idea that this is what he brings together.
01:06:25.000And this is why anybody that is coming against him is coming against the global order.
01:06:30.000And therefore they are a threat to public safety.
01:06:33.000And that's why not only can they not buy, sell and trade, but eventually they get beheaded and they start beheading people who will not take the mark.
01:06:46.000This is why a lot of right-wing Christians have always been against the kind of larger term New World Order.
01:06:52.000And when you look at them, there's always been a congregation of individuals who are church-going that usually do speak about this, you know, in a very large extent.
01:07:03.000So, what you're saying makes absolutely sense from what I've been hearing for, you know, since the 90s.
01:07:08.000People were talking about this and more and more when you look at current events, I mean, you can make many different correlations, you could have many different understandings, but I think what everyone here is saying is that these are definitely interesting times to say the least and definitely times that will test everyone in many important instances.
01:07:28.000When you read, like, the Bible and you look at Bible prophecy, Satan himself literally wants to be God, right?
01:07:35.000When you read certain passages of Lucifer's fall, he wanted to be God, he wanted to ascend above God, he wanted to be worshipped as God himself.
01:07:43.000So when you take a look at the entire scope of Scripture through the Old Testament and the New Testament, you'll see Lucifer and Satan himself literally mirroring what God has done or what God will do.
01:07:53.000So he will declare himself to be God in the temple in Israel because he wants to be worshipped as God.
01:07:59.000And the whole tie with the economy, with the one world religion and the one world economy taking the mark of the beast, is in the Old Testament you would see that God instructed the Jews, he would instruct them to write Bible verses on their arms or on their foreheads.
01:08:12.000And still to this day you see Hasidic Jews, Orthodox Jews, that still put Bible verses on their foreheads or even on their arms.
01:08:29.000The real tie is if you get humanity to believe that there is no hope, and there's only one hope that can cause you to survive, which is the economy.
01:08:39.000I mean, throughout all human history, throughout all religions, world religions, it doesn't matter whether you're Muslim, whether you're Buddhist, it doesn't matter.
01:08:46.000We all need to survive, and the economy keeps us afloat.
01:08:49.000So in the end times, God is literally the provider of all humanity.
01:09:01.000And if he can take everything that he has from you, especially the way that you got it, you will bow your knee to whomever will give it back to you.
01:09:08.000Well, I don't know a whole lot about all that Revelation stuff, but I can say, it's true, people don't know how to survive outside of the current system.
01:09:14.000So, a lot of the left, they don't understand what economy means.
01:09:18.000They have this meme, oh no, the economy!
01:09:20.000It's like, bro, the economy means the system by which goods and services are brought to the people who need them.
01:09:29.000The economy is a reference to the system of how that food is grown, produced, sent to the store, so that you can buy it, or so that the government can give it to you.
01:09:36.000Even if the government... So, this is what they don't understand.
01:09:42.000This household management of a country is an authoritarian communist system.
01:09:45.000It doesn't work very well, as we've seen throughout history, but it literally is an economy.
01:09:50.000So many people, I ask you this, how many people who live in any of these big cities know how to even grow food?
01:09:56.000Like we saw at the LARP farm at the Chaz, the autonomous zone in Seattle.
01:10:00.000It was beautiful, you kind of, we just a throwback.
01:10:03.000It was so, my favorite part about that garden was that for a while they had a garden for black people only and then it switched to people of color.
01:10:12.000And the worst part was, is that that was the only garden that wasn't growing food.
01:10:16.000And no one could figure out if the people weren't planting the food, or if white people were too afraid to plant because it was all white people tending the gardens.
01:11:26.000Because I'll tell you, when I was living in L.A., we have good Mexican food, and I'll tell you, it's good going in, the other side's another story.
01:11:35.000And I'm newly married, and I'm in my house, and I'm like, alright, God will provide.
01:11:39.000I know this sounds so ridiculous before 2020, and I start noticing there's like four toilet paper rolls left, then three toilet paper rolls left, and I'm going, Okay, okay.
01:12:34.000At what point in a situation like that would you just grab a towel, rip a piece off, and then be like, I guess we're doing it the old-fashioned way?
01:14:43.000So if you're trying to ration paper or you're in a place where they don't have a lot of toilet paper, check the flushable wipes and they're often in stock.
01:14:49.000The most important podcast in the world.
01:14:52.000Share this podcast if you like learning about proper toilet paper.
01:14:56.000Another thing people need to realize is that we as Americans are extremely spoiled And after just traveling the world, I mean, most people just use natural squatty potties as a way to relieve themselves.
01:15:09.000No one here at this house, by the way, uses a squatty potty.
01:15:14.000But another thing to really kind of think here is that we are not resilient.
01:15:18.000A lot of people in places like Mexico that have went through economic collapses, people who have to wait long lines just to get their money, just to get their bi-weekly, bi-monthly paycheck.
01:15:40.000And when time really comes to a head and they have to deal with the realities of a country 27 trillion dollars in debt that still gives out billions of dollars in foreign aid, when they have to deal with the larger ramifications of these politicians selling them down the river, They're going to have a very rude awakening, and when people panic, when people freak out, that's going to be really a true test of anyone in any major city, and it's one of the reasons I left New York City, and I'm never coming back.
01:16:22.000Remember the big speech on the stimulus package?
01:16:25.000That's why, dude, we can't afford stuff like that right now.
01:16:30.000It's nothing new that we give billions of dollars of foreign aid away, but it's like in the midst of this pandemic, all of a sudden we're giving billions of dollars to Pakistan for gender studies.
01:16:56.000It usually doesn't go towards even that country.
01:16:58.000It goes towards the middle person, the bureaucrat standing in the way that stifles it in for themselves, their friends, their special interests.
01:19:33.000It reminds me of the Simpsons where they're looking for treasure or something and they dig 20 feet down and they're like, uh, how do we get out?
01:19:38.000And Homer's like, we'll dig our way out and they just keep digging.
01:19:41.000Well, I think what's really cool about all this though is that where I kind of almost get upset sometimes at certain people on the right wing or the libertarian movement that sort of condemn all these new people sort of waking up and breaking out of the city slick life, waking up out of this Democrat life. They keep saying, oh, they're moving to
01:20:32.000Like I don't, I'm not, I'm, I'm waking up out of this going, holy crap.
01:20:36.000I can't, if I'm going to get married, like I got married and within months I told my wife, I was like, I know this doesn't make sense financially.
01:20:50.000I go, as the lockdowns came, we've got to get out of here.
01:20:54.000Like we've got to leave this state because I don't know what's going to happen, but it's not going to be good.
01:20:58.000And look, as we left last June, it's only gotten, it's digressed in California.
01:21:03.000Well, you brought up a very important point.
01:21:05.000When you have to work for what you have, you automatically become a conservative.
01:21:09.000And when a lot of these people move out of the big cities and they move towards the suburban areas, they have to work for everything they got.
01:21:51.000I'm saying that the studies show that it's not the Californians changing, which I mean, that's why everyone giving all these people just waking up a hard time.
01:21:57.000I think a lot of people, if you actually look at the studies and the trends, not a bunch of people complaining.
01:22:03.000Shows like this are working to wake people up where you watch Tim and it's not like Tim's a right wing nut job.
01:22:07.000It's like, in fact, you probably piss a lot of right wing people off.
01:22:11.000And so my point being is that you can sit here and you can talk to someone like Vosh, who a lot of right-wing people hate, then you can talk to someone like myself or Drew or whatever.
01:23:45.000I think there's a lot of people that aren't politically engaged, they're not into economics, they don't even understand the damage of a massive stimulus bill.
01:23:55.000They're just like, oh just give me my 600 bucks even though we're going to be trillions of dollars in debt.
01:23:59.000Because it hasn't affected them personally yet.
01:24:01.000And I think a lot of people are waking up to the reality that their lives are being affected by these policies in big blue states, and they're leaving these states because it's affecting them.
01:24:11.000But are they really changing to not vote the same way in these other states?
01:24:15.000I was talking about this with Lydia earlier.
01:24:16.000It's like, I think a lot of people They recognize that bad things are happening and it affects them, but they leave the states without understanding why it happened in the first place.
01:24:25.000So they still vote the same way because of Hollywood or the music industry.
01:24:29.000They see people like Jay-Z or freaking Cardi B up there twerking with Bernie Sanders.
01:24:34.000And it's like, oh, well, you should vote for the Democrats because Cardi B said so!
01:24:38.000And it's like, nothing changes because there's no education involved.
01:24:48.000But then you have so so I think I one of the things I say about Democrats is that they rely on solely almost exclusively on low information voters easily evidenced by the fact that they try to lower the voting age to 16 or they've advocated for it and that they get a lot of younger voters.
01:25:05.000Clearly these are people who haven't had serious work experience.
01:25:09.000A lot of these kids who graduate college and then tend to vote Democrat haven't worked a job.
01:25:14.000Or they may have worked some job, but they don't really understand what it means to run a business and pay taxes and pay employees and pay benefits and all that.
01:25:20.000So they vote based on their interests.
01:25:24.000If you spend your life in an institutionalized learning facility where everything is provided for you and you follow the rules of the authority, What are you going to vote for?
01:25:51.000It's like, or actually conservatives tend to be people who are self-reliant.
01:25:55.000They'll go out, work for themselves, they'll get a job, they'll pay taxes, they'll start a business.
01:25:59.000They don't go to college, so that means they have to support themselves somehow.
01:26:02.000So they're not in institutionalized learning facilities where the authority is telling them what to do and providing for them.
01:26:07.000That creates a clear distinction as the generations get older and enter the voting population.
01:26:12.000Right. But I think there's there's more people somewhere in the middle.
01:26:15.000And I think there's this whole class of people developing.
01:26:17.000And here's what I mean is like the far left crazy people are saying one thing like, you know, there's no gender and,
01:26:23.000you know, sexuality is fluid and you're you know, your kids eight.
01:26:25.000But they know they're you know, if they want to get a sex change, you should listen to them and take their advice,
01:26:29.000even though, you know, they have a bedtime.
01:26:30.000Somehow they can decide their entire hormonal future.
01:26:33.000I mean, there's these people and I think most people see that and they kind of reject that because for their own
01:26:37.000families, they're like, I don't really want that for them.
01:26:40.000But then there's this like weird similarity on the right wing, too, that always asks, what are you conserving?
01:26:45.000What are you conserving as if everybody's this like alt Puritan conservative that wants this Christendom in America, like
01:26:51.000as if that's really what everyone in America wants.
01:26:54.000But I think most people are in this point where they're just in the culture and it's starting to get so extreme and it's starting to get so in your face where it's like they're naturally like default blue but they're going, dude now you're starting to get into weird like kid stuff and you're starting to push like we saw recently Cardi B won't even let her own kids watch her music video.
01:27:11.000She pushed her kids out of the room when it was on TV.
01:27:14.000You start to see, like, well, that's what I'm saying.
01:27:17.000You go from suggestive music to songs like WAP, that even if you're a sexualized person and you're expressive, you're going, that doesn't need to be on TV.
01:27:27.000And I think people are starting to get sick of it and going, there's gotta be something where we're just getting back to like setting some standard of morality, some standard of morals that we can agree on.
01:27:36.000A lot of the big tech executives don't even let their kids use social media.
01:27:39.000One of the best compliments I got for my song, Will of the People, Was someone just posting the lyrics to WAP and then posting the lyrics to my song?
01:27:48.000And that was the point they were making.
01:27:49.000Like, this is the popular song with the millions of views that everyone's talking about, WAP.
01:27:53.000And then they were like, my song, which has like 700,000 and it's like very serious about revolutions and like, you know, and politics.
01:28:08.000You know, we went for a drive recently and we were listening to a bunch of, you know, 60s, 70s music and stuff like that.
01:28:14.000And there are some meaningful songs put out by, like, classic rock bands.
01:28:18.000But then you look at the stuff that has a billion views, a billion listens today, and it's like, you've got these songs, like, man, Probably the easiest and most iconic is Fortunate Son by Creedence Clearwater Revival, right?
01:28:34.000Every movie about Vietnam or video game, it's like, they play Fortunate Son.
01:28:37.000It's a song about, he's like, you know, it ain't me, I'm not no senator's son.
01:28:40.000Talking about the privileged people and the powerful connections, political elites and those with money and how they, you know, can get what they want, they can avoid what they want, they don't gotta pay taxes and things like that.
01:28:49.000You have these meaningful songs that got a ton of listen, you know, ton of downloads and then you pull up Spotify and you're like, what's getting the views?
01:29:01.000But there's like there's there's meaning being stripped out of our arts, you know, and it's becoming very just dry and generic and base and.
01:29:08.000And, you know, I think there's gonna be a culture collapse of some sort because we're whittling down to the lowest common denominator to try and, like, movies is a good example.
01:29:19.000There was a period where, up until the movies were destroyed by the COVID lockdowns, blockbusters, it's just mindless explosions and shrapnel like Transformers.
01:29:37.000Well, another thing to realize, a lot of our entertainment, whether it's art, music, movies, has been hijacked, has been used as a way to push political ideas rather than to entertain.
01:29:48.000It's used to program individuals to believe certain things, to have a certain ideology, to have a favorable view of institutions like The CIA or establishment institutions or democratic institutions.
01:30:49.000In his upcoming book, Extraterrestrial, the first time of intelligent life beyond Earth, theoretical physicist Avi Loeb lays out his theory about a peculiar shaped object that has entered our solar system several years ago.
01:30:59.000The interstellar object named Oumuamua was first observed through the Pan-STARRS telescope in Hawaii's Haleakala Observatory in 2017.
01:31:12.000Researchers observed that it had passed through the ecliptic plane on September 6th from the direction of Vega, a star in the Lyra constellation that is about 25 light-years away from our planet.
01:31:23.000Just three days later, Oumuamua, Hawaiian for scout, began accelerating toward the sun before it eventually came closer to Earth on October 7th, moving swiftly towards the constellation Pegasus and the blackness beyond.
01:31:35.000Some scientists claimed Oumuamua, which is believed to be the first interstellar object detected in our solar system, was simply another comet.
01:31:42.000However, Loeb, the chairman of Harvard University's astronomy department, dismisses that assumption And as it relies too much on the familiar.
01:31:51.000What would happen if a caveman saw a cellophane?
01:31:55.000He would have thought it was just a shiny rock.
01:31:57.000Loeb says that there are two big details that suggest Oumuamua wasn't just a comet, but a piece of alien technology.
01:32:03.000The first detail is the object's dimensions, as it was determined to be five to ten times longer than it was wide.
01:32:08.000Loeb argues the cigar-like shape isn't typical for a natural space object.
01:32:12.000But the theoretical physicist lays the biggest detail that supports his theory is the movement.
01:32:17.000The excess push away from the sun that was the thing that broke the camel's back.
01:32:21.000Loeb explains the sun's gravitational force would cause a natural object to move faster as it approaches and eventually push the object back, causing it to move slower as it moves away.
01:32:30.000Loeb points out that this didn't occur with Oumuamua, which accelerated slightly, but to a highly statistically significant extent.
01:32:37.000If we are not alone, are we the smartest kids on the block, he asks?
01:32:40.000If there was a species that eliminated itself through war or change in the climate, we can get our act together and behave better.
01:32:47.000Instead, we are wasting a lot of resources on Earth, fighting each other, and other negative things that are a big waste.
01:33:41.000Somehow, in the COVID Omnibus, the spending bill, was the Intelligence Authorization Act, which included, from the time of passing the bill, 180 days, the Pentagon must release all their information on UFOs.
01:34:10.000I think, uh, if you take a look at World War II, with Roswell, you know, coming out of that, how NASA came out, you know, there definitely was, like, this technological boom and advancement, because the Nazis were obviously involved with, like, black magic, and Adolf Hitler was obsessed with that, like, obtaining even the scientists, like, crazy Nazi scientists that were obsessed with, you know, communicating with off-world entities, or whatever they called them.
01:34:33.000Some people believe they're demons, in order to obtain Like, crazy scientific knowledge and astrophysics and all these things.
01:34:41.000A lot of people believe that's how the atom bomb came into reality, but Americans got to it first.
01:34:46.000But I think it is interesting how there's always this connection with technology and, like, off-world entities.
01:34:53.000And if you take a look at it from a biblical perspective, like you said, I mean, the Bible does make it very clear that, you know, we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual hosts of wickedness and principalities and powers, but I just want to point out how there always is... I'll tell you this.
01:35:10.000The number one thing that I believe, when you take a look at the Garden of Eden, where Eve was deceived, what was the one thing that he tempted her with?
01:35:19.000One thing was that she would have some kind of super knowledge.
01:35:22.000There's always some kind of temptation with an expert knowledge or a knowledge that goes further or a wisdom that takes you beyond.
01:35:35.000Whenever there's UFOs involved or some kind of spiritual entities involved, there's always this offer of an advanced knowledge and then an advancement in technology.
01:35:44.000Have you guys seen the Bob Lazar documentary on Netflix?
01:35:49.000So I definitely think there is some kind of technological advancement.
01:35:53.000Have you guys seen, like, throughout Trump's presidency, he'll come out and say, if you guys, he'll threaten nations.
01:35:58.000He'll be like, if you guys keep doing this, you guys are gonna see, like, you know, rain and fire like the world has never seen before.
01:36:04.000I definitely, and then the Space Force came, right?
01:36:07.000I definitely think we have something that other nations don't know what it is, but where that knowledge came from, I personally believe is supernatural.
01:36:22.000You said with DMT, and I don't want to get too druggy here, but one thing that's interesting is I didn't become a Christian until I was 19 and I'm still learning a lot.
01:36:33.000But one thing I can say is I was agnostic before then, as agnostic as a teenager could be, but I rejected a lot of spiritual things.
01:36:42.000I've always been a man about you know, the physical and what you can measure and the
01:36:46.000methods that go into that, something that science no longer is.
01:36:51.000But I remember that one interesting thing that I didn't expect to was to kind of get
01:36:55.000into experimenting with drugs growing up.
01:36:58.000And you know, I remember doing drugs like ecstasy or smoking pot and those were fun.
01:37:03.000But I remember the first time that I did, I did mushrooms.
01:37:08.000I was younger, and I remember there was nothing like that that I'd ever done in my life, and the psilocybin and that feeling.
01:37:14.000Every drug that I had consumed, every substance kind of numbed or altered reality, but I had never felt like I wasn't myself before, living in a new world, until I had taken mushrooms.
01:37:25.000And I think trying a bunch of, you know, psychedelics in those years, like LSD even, like 5-Ameo dipped and all those experimental ones that were coming out, 2C-B.
01:37:34.000I think there was one time where I just took way too many mushrooms, you know, like just too many.
01:37:41.000And like, I remember having like a mental breakdown.
01:37:46.000I didn't believe in spirits or anything, but no lie, I went into my friend's bathroom, way to do this, his parents are asleep.
01:37:53.000You're in the living room, you take a bunch of mushrooms, wise decision.
01:37:56.000And total 16-year-old wisdom there, guys.
01:37:59.000I remember I went into the restroom and this being appeared and was telling me to stick my head into the toilet and drown myself and to kill myself.
01:38:08.000And I felt like the only way to escape what was going on was to die.
01:38:13.000And as much as it might just sound like it was like a bad trip, I felt for a moment like real in that moment and I felt like I woke up and these I looked at the being in this restroom and I can remember that it's like a long restroom and it was like a dark like a like a dark force And I remember that I had never felt so oppressed.
01:38:32.000And you know, for years after that instance, I struggled with suicide.
01:38:35.000I was heavily depressed, but I wasn't on mushrooms anymore.
01:38:39.000And I started to wake up to the fact that there might be something else out there, because why is it that I'm no longer high, but these feelings that I first experienced while in that toilet are staying with me?
01:38:51.000And I think that there's some validity to the fact that I think that spirits are real.
01:38:56.000I think that there is something that is genuinely real and out there.
01:38:59.000I know a lot of people say it's not true, that it's just a trick of the mind or a hallucination, but the reality speaking is when you talk about people's trips on hallucinogens, why do they all see the same things?
01:39:09.000You know, why is this not an uncommon experience where people see dark forces, the devil?
01:39:13.000I mean, but coming into this with aliens, it's like, I just... We're all human.
01:39:20.000I had positive effects mostly. I'm just saying, but when you come down to this,
01:39:23.000I started realizing there could be more. And I think that I had a genuine conversion experience
01:39:29.000while I was sober. When I was 19, I was on the toilet. I'm not even joking. I was on the toilet,
01:39:34.000and I was reading this book, Why Grace Changes Everything, not trying to become a Christian,
01:39:37.000not trying to like... It wasn't like in some tent revival meeting. It wasn't emotional.
01:39:41.000And then I had just like, something clicked where like, I realized that all the pain that I felt, the depression, everything, could be forgiven in a moment.
01:39:49.000You can say that I was, you know, that it was fake, but it was real to me.
01:39:52.000That I felt something shift in my mind, in my heart, that I can't ever deny, where I began to become aware that God was real, He was in my life, and I've never been the same.
01:40:00.000And so sometimes I wonder the people that doubt that there's something else out there, maybe it's just they haven't experienced anything real or they've been around so many frauds who are trying to, you know, sell something to them or like, you know, they're just basing off of a hallucination that that's why they don't believe.
01:40:14.000I've met people who have told me that they've communicated with other beings or something like that.
01:40:21.000Like I had one guy who told me that he was a drug addict.
01:40:24.000He was wasting his life, and then one day he was in the woods, and he felt a voice inside of him coming out, asking him, what are you doing?
01:40:32.000And that was a profound spiritual experience where he became very, very Christian, and then turned his life around, got off drugs, started working, and he was just like some punk rock dude.
01:40:41.000He kept to, you know, his love of punk rock, but he opened a business, and he just totally got away from drugs.
01:40:46.000And he was like, I know you won't believe me when I say that it happened, but it doesn't matter.
01:41:00.000And he's like, but I'm telling you a voice came from the center of my being telling me this.
01:41:04.000And I was like, I mean, I believe you, but there's two ways to explain it.
01:41:07.000You had a spiritual response because another worldly being was telling you you're destroying your life or I think we also need to realize that everything is energy.
01:41:31.000And to think that it's only in the dimensions that we see it under, it's kind of naive because
01:41:36.000there's a lot more happening that we don't even perceive, see, or feel.
01:41:41.000And there's even a lot of theories out there, and even official scientific studies, that talked about how it could have been things like psychedelics, like mushrooms, that have propelled civilizations, that might have actually started religions, that might have actually...
01:41:57.000Do you have a specific reference that you're commenting about?
01:41:59.000No, I'm saying people doing drugs going crazy and then... Well, it depends.
01:42:02.000Well, we have meth, which is, you know, it depends what you also see as a drug because, again, people see psychedelics in a scientific term not just as, you know, a drug that you take for fun, But there also have been a lot of medical studies recently that correlate a lot of significance when it comes to brain development and dealing with issues like PTSD and depression that have been very profound and very important when it comes to this kind of psychedelic space which kind of, according to many people, merges this physical and spiritual world and lets people see this veil, whether good or not,
01:42:37.000And I think personally, in my own personal opinion, there is something way bigger.
01:42:45.000And I think that's something that I personally believe in myself.
01:42:47.000Why is it overtly positive and negative?
01:42:48.000That's one thing that I've always questioned, and maybe you can help me with this.
01:42:51.000When you see people claim to have experiences with spiritual beings, taking aside the totally kooky people who you're just going, you're grifting, you're trying to get money, or you're selling me something.
01:43:00.000Let's take genuine experiences, whether it's on Ayahuasca or it's like a Christian experience, or even some sort of like a Buddhist experience.
01:43:08.000Usually it's like, kind of like the extreme, where it's like, I encountered some being, and it either really freaked me the heck out, and it put me into a downward spiral, or A, my whole life changed for the positive.
01:43:21.000It's not just like, yo, so I was walking down, this being was like, I'm Carl, do you like Mexican candy?
01:43:25.000And I was like, yeah, that stuff's pretty salty, but good, and we went our ways.
01:43:28.000It's always like, some really extreme reaction, and their life changes, Permanently!
01:43:33.000Everyone always says, my life changed!
01:43:35.000Where's the being who appears and says, dude, you're listening to The Beatles again?
01:43:41.000But you brought up an important thing, the kind of extremes of it.
01:43:45.000And because of that, a lot of people paint these things as really good or really bad.
01:43:50.000And we need to find the middle ground here, because you could have an experience that could be either or, and you need to understand them, not just label them and blame them for whatever's going on.
01:44:17.000I spent all night studying throughout the night because I like to study throughout the night.
01:44:21.000And I was up till maybe like four in the morning.
01:44:24.000And then the next morning when I woke up, I had to walk down the street in order to go pick up one of the cars that was getting worked on at a mechanic shop, right?
01:44:32.000And I remember walking down the street and this random homeless guy just comes out of nowhere that I've never seen before, never met before in my entire life.
01:44:43.000And he walks up straight up to me and he's like, so you believe in Jesus?
01:45:22.000Everything I was going to teach on that following day starts blaspheming the teaching as if the guy was in my room the night before watching me study the entire night long.
01:45:34.000And when you take a look at demonic, you know, entities and the way that they interact with people in the scripture is they always blaspheme Christ and they blaspheme anything that has anything to do with Christ.
01:45:46.000And a lot of people don't understand that, you know, in distant religions they'll call them watchers or they'll call them, you know, the ones that are always listening in.
01:45:54.000But people need to realize that whatever your interpretation is of it is why does it always have to blaspheme God or blaspheme Christ?
01:46:03.000And I kind of want people to just think about that, that are listening to this right now, because I find it interesting.
01:46:09.000And I could tell you guys some crazy stories, dude.
01:46:11.000We've had kids in the ministry, 12-year-old little kids, demon-possessed out of their minds, eyes pitch black, literally, eyes pitch black, 12-year-old little kid, about maybe 92 pounds, 95 pounds, literally physically lifting up like pastors that probably weigh like 230, 250 pounds.
01:47:01.000But a lot of people, a lot of people believe in this.
01:47:03.000And I think what's happened is, is that when you go to, when you go down to, like, some people could call it mental illness, but we've really got to ask ourselves with the alien question.
01:47:11.000You know, it's so funny that, like, Christians are always like, you know, oh, there's no aliens.
01:47:14.000But then they're telling everyone to believe in angels and demons.
01:47:16.000And then you have these people who are like, God's not real.
01:47:19.000And they're like, but there's aliens on other planets.
01:47:22.000It's like, well, it's all really shows something and it's interesting in the human condition and brain is that there's something in us, whether it's from conditioning or something in nature, to where we like feel like there's something else out there.
01:47:33.000A lot of American, I think it's more Americans than not believe in this.
01:47:37.000And so it's just an interesting thing to me is that these stories come out.
01:47:39.000The reason why they're even, they're publishing them is because they get clicked on.
01:47:42.000And it's just like, but we can't prove him per se, unless you were like, maybe there with him specifically.
01:47:47.000So it's like, I don't know what we can do here.
01:48:41.000And then I started to laugh and I was like, I get your point.
01:48:45.000And his point was, while there, I think there's legitimate and valid reasons to trust science and why I will look at a science book and talk about, you know, elements and all that stuff.
01:48:56.000People have people in their lives they trust, they've experiences they've seen, and things they trust, and they believe it.
01:49:02.000You haven't experienced what they experienced, so you think something different.
01:49:06.000How do you know they're wrong unless you can prove a negative, which you can't do, so it becomes very difficult.
01:49:10.000His ultimate point was like, look man, there are a lot of people that read this book and told him these things, and had people tell them that it was true, and they believe that.
01:49:21.000You think the experts tell you, but he's like, when did you pull up an electron microscope and look at that oxygen, that molecule, that atom?
01:49:38.000So before you start talking about how you think someone else is wrong because of their religion, the first thing you can do is actually do the experiments to track radio waves.
01:49:50.000So this guy wasn't like a religious zealot or anything.
01:49:52.000He was making a point about philosophy and how you've got a lot of people who think they're smarter than other people.
01:49:57.000And it could be a religious person who thinks they're smarter than those who deny the religion and say, oh, you just don't know what you're talking about.
01:50:03.000And you've got these people who say, oh, no, you're crazy.
01:50:19.000And I think that that's where, with all these views, when you read stories about aliens, where people come into this, is I feel like the question of aliens is actually more philosophy and spiritual than it is a scientific question.
01:50:29.000A lot of people talk about science like it's a religion, you know, like, do you believe in this?
01:50:33.000And they don't realize that the science is so limited in the fact that it's just testing the physical world to, you know, through hypotheses to create theories.
01:50:40.000And I think that people look at scientists and bureaucrats today like the bureaucrats are like the priests or like the gods and the scientists are somehow like the theologians studying and predicting the world.
01:50:49.000Specifically right now with the left saying the right doesn't believe in science while they literally ignore the lockdown science and ignore the World Health Organization, they selectively choose what science they support and what they oppose.
01:51:04.000I mean, it's not that extensive, but it's like, to be honest, it's like, I can tell you that it's genuinely a very limited thing, but science today isn't even science.
01:51:12.000It's just predictive programming of like, whatever they want you to believe in.
01:51:16.000And it's been political for a long time.
01:51:18.000And that's, and that's the left who have been, so I used to work for environmental nonprofits and the left was always complaining about researchers that were paid off by, you know, major corporations.
01:51:27.000That's what they've been. Oh those scientists do that study.
01:51:30.000Well, they were paid off by big oil and I'm like, okay Like well so that you don't believe the science is that
01:51:35.000report wrong for your political reason?
01:51:37.000That's why i've always been like y'all these people just want power
01:51:40.000They'll claim the science is on their side if it supports what they want. That's just about it
01:51:44.000We got to go to super chats If we because we have not already so if you haven't smash
01:51:49.000the like button share subscribe all that good stuff And uh, we're gonna go near super chats. So thanks for
01:51:55.000hanging out everybody We do the show Monday through Friday live at 8 p.m.
01:52:19.000Flimsy Fox with a big ol' super chat says, Hey Tim, they say that they're a gay, furry leftist who supports Trump.
01:52:26.000And actually support, I'm not kidding, Flimsy Fox says they support Donald, uh, Democrat policies, but left the left as soon as, quote, soy boys started playing dirty and starting riots.
01:52:37.000I mean, look, there are a lot of people who left the left for these reasons.
01:52:41.000There are a lot of people who supported Trump who are actually populists, but will choose to support Trump over the establishment because establishment won't deliver.
01:52:50.000So let's see, Colin P. says, did you catch in the Trump phone call that the Georgia Secretary of State said their comparison between Dominion voting machines and their hand retally were virtually the same?
01:53:19.000Well, it says non-NCO, so non-non-commissioned officers.
01:53:22.000I think it was when you were talking about the National Guard and the coup.
01:53:25.000So I actually lived on a military base, and I lived outside of one.
01:53:29.000And that's what my experience is based on.
01:53:31.000So, actually having a military family, living on, in base housing with my sister, and then living outside of, just outside of Fort Eustis in Newport News, when my brother was in the Army.
01:53:42.000And I hung out with these people all the time.
01:53:44.000And that's what my opinion is based off of.
01:53:46.000So it's not like it's an opinion based on the entirety of the military, but it's at least based on my experience with the people who were there on those bases.
01:54:46.000I'm a fan of getting everyone together and then making demands.
01:54:49.000I'm not a fan of organizing a legitimate union structure for YouTube.
01:54:53.000Because then you get corruption, politics, garbage, and then you can't just work by yourself.
01:54:59.000And then what will happen is, because I've worked in several unions before, I see how the dirty politics plays, and I see how the people get their benefits, and then I see how it hinders and hurts the people who are at the bottom struggling to stay afloat.
01:58:47.000It's an act of war, but I think- After he leaves office?
01:58:49.000I think if they arrest him for something that they can't prove is worthy of it, like they find it for some niche, I think some people would react.
01:58:54.000The media has put out years of garbage about Russia.
01:58:58.000Drug lords can get broken out of jail by their cartels.
01:59:00.000I mean, loyalty is something you shouldn't doubt.
01:59:02.000From your guys' experience covering recent protests, what do you think is going to happen in DC on the 6th?
01:59:10.000Oh, well, it depends how many Trump supporters show up.
01:59:13.000I mean, honestly speaking, if it's if it's like above 100,000 or 200,000, which I'm assuming it'll probably be, it's going to be way more than that.
02:00:11.000Just like Wikipedia, you know, comes in and calls everybody some alt-right person even if there's not the evidence based off of somebody else's misgivings and mischaracterizations.
02:00:19.000Wikipedia is an opinion aggregator now.
02:00:20.000But I'm saying, isn't this their whole point?
02:00:22.000To rewrite history so at the very end they can rewrite what the last gathering of Trump supporters to teach future generations that these were bad people?
02:01:02.000So, like, he... But the point is, with last month, when there are estimates of $100K to $200K throughout D.C., Trump didn't say, be here in D.C.
02:01:11.000He didn't call for supporters to arrive.
02:01:14.000When it came to Trump's inauguration, and not that many people showed up relative to, say, Obama, it's because they didn't need to.
02:01:35.000Gary French, I've known him for like 15 years.
02:01:38.000But like that has like 2 million subscribers and it's been going up and then like Blaze we've always been from Blaze TV we've always been like a paywall content site.
02:01:47.000We just started working on our YouTube it got like well over like 1.3 million in one year.
02:01:52.000The point being is like these Trump people that are following the populist movement and what's going on like I mean look at your channels how much they've blown up.
02:01:58.000My point being is protests aside only so many people can physically travel.
02:02:02.000If you look at the rise of free thinking and independent channels that look out for the
02:02:05.000populace, whether it's Left Libertarian or Gary Franchi or Blaze TV, more like center-right
02:02:10.000people who love America, these channels are exploding in growth, which shows that not
02:02:13.000only are we gaining power and access to information, but I think that this is just the beginning
02:02:20.000And I think now that we have the ... How can we get so many people there?
02:02:22.000It's because the influence of so many free thinking people has gotten to the point where the information disseminates outside of the normal barriers of big tech and the establishment media.
02:02:31.000I mean, I'm really excited for what this begins, right?
02:02:34.000This is a good start to 2021 if you're a populist person.
02:03:06.000No one's gonna defy that order, they're gonna be like, sounds good, we're gonna go stand guard and protect the bridge.
02:03:11.000That's not obscene, that's not absurd, but what if that is a, you know, key junction point for some kind of political, you know, politician or whatever, and you're, the point is, In Turkey, there was a coup attempt, I'm doing air quotes, where a bunch of soldiers showed up to the bridge, standing around, and then a helicopter started firing at them.
02:03:29.000And then Erdogan of Turkey said, oh, it's a coup attempt.
02:03:32.000They're trying to, you know, to shut down the government and steal power from the people.
02:03:35.000And then the regular people ran up and started beating the crap out of the soldiers who were there.
02:03:39.000And what I was told at the time, and there's probably even further reporting on it, is the soldiers were just low-ranking dudes who were told, hey, go guard the bridge.
02:04:03.000Pat Tillman was the friendly fire incident of Afghanistan.
02:04:07.000NFL professional player that literally went and joined to fight the war on terror and the government covered up and lied what actually happened to him.
02:04:15.000There's a lot of his family members that are calling out the foul practices that led up to his unfortunate death that happened because of friendly fire and not because of what the government's official story was.
02:06:15.000Grim Pickens says, speaking of movie propaganda, ever noticed that the Decepticons, aka the bad guys, were all military vehicles and a cop car?
02:07:29.000But I was saying there are pros and cons to authoritarianism.
02:07:33.000And I was like, no, man, Captain America is way better and he's cooler and he's fighting for America, even though the actor's going out and saying a lot of crazy stuff.
02:09:32.000Well, I know the United States' government is challenging the decision this morning, but I don't know if he's... But they could still grant him bail and he can, for the first time in his life, walk around outside, I guess.
02:09:40.000Or for the first time in the past decade.
02:09:41.000I mean, Mexico is considering giving him asylum.
02:10:31.000Well, demonology is something that's not really talked about a lot in the Bible.
02:10:33.000There's not a lot, you know, specifically, you know, played on it.
02:10:36.000But there is something interesting is that, you know, there's a word used that's for witchcraft that's called like pharmacia or pharmacology.
02:10:43.000And it's not talking about, you know, for instance, there's a point in the New Testament where they talk about using alcohol or different things for sickness.
02:10:51.000It's not talking about, you know, people taking Advil or like just a normal pharmacy.
02:10:56.000There was a combination between a lot of like witch doctors and witchcraft and actually psychedelics and connected to people who were like following the devil and darkness in the Bible.
02:11:05.000And so it's kind of interesting that one of the one of the forbidden realms for Christians
02:11:09.000was like to not engage in this pharmacology of this abuse of substances that translucent
02:11:14.000your mind because it actually can put you under the influence of the enemy.
02:11:18.000And I think the question I would ask myself that would not just with demonology, but to
02:11:22.000argue the point of people who are pro psychedelic, something does switch in your brain.
02:11:26.000And that's why even when we talk about the story of Adam and Eve and awakening to a new
02:11:29.000reality, people always talk about there being an apple, even though the Bible never talks
02:12:41.000I don't think anyone's trying to date Sidney Powell.
02:12:43.000We need Lin Wood up in here to talk about demonology, dude.
02:12:47.000Convincing Reality says, The clear reason drugs would cause similar hallucinations in people is because we all share the same human brains, instinct, and basic cultural norms.
02:12:56.000Seeing any perceived unknown as good or bad is necessary, as we are wired to react in terms of survival.
02:13:01.000The other important thing to realize is that, If a culture doesn't have a concept for a word, you literally can't translate it or describe it to someone.
02:13:11.000There are instances, I'm sure if any of you have ever worked with someone who's bilingual, where they'll be talking about something and they'll say, there's a word and they'll say it and they'll be like, I don't really know how to describe it in English.
02:16:23.000Do you know Abel Garcia is somebody who went through a full transition in surgery and then decided that they felt like they were brainwashed and pressed into getting the full surgery and like made to accept their gender difference and they wanted to Reverse it all and then end up getting rejected by the trans community and the gay community in California, and it's like such a it was such a it's like Sorry, that's a whole nother conversation, but that's like absolutely mind-boggling I think think that Abel has my phone number you can text me So kale exile says on the demon stuff check out a book called spirit of the rainforest about an Indian tribe in the Amazon interesting
02:16:58.000Let's see, Jay Mill says future guests, David Barton, amazing historian, Viva Frey and Robert Barnes, incredible legal discussions.
02:17:05.000The problem with Viva Frey and Barnes is that Frey is in Canada, I believe?
02:17:30.000John 117 says, if you want something epic to look forward to, at the end of time, Satan will assume the form of a seven-headed red dragon and be slain by Jesus.
02:17:45.000Like, what if literally, you know, I'm not going to name anybody, but some, like, elite, you know, wealthy industrialist just goes like, rawr, and his head splits into seven.
02:17:53.000And then, like, literally a dude stereotypically looking like Jesus pulls out a sword.
02:17:57.000I'd be more likely to believe that's happening than lockdowns are working, you know?
02:19:10.000I watched some really trippy, like, YouTube video years ago about, like, the snakes spiraling, and they were like, doesn't it look like DNA?
02:20:20.000They all, they're the same to me, but Kristen Wiig, that girl, she's like goofy.
02:20:24.000And she, her whole first part made sense.
02:20:26.000It was like, Oh, she's that goofy girl.
02:20:28.000And then all of a sudden we're supposed to take her as like some like serious, like, I'm not going to ruin it for anyone, but some like serious character.
02:20:46.000Or Batman vs. Superman, where Wonder Woman literally tells Bruce Wayne, like, oh, I went into hiding for, like, a hundred years after the events of the first Wonder Woman movie, and then all of a sudden she's back in 1984, like, running around in her costume, like people can see her.
02:21:03.000Spoiler alert for those who haven't seen it.
02:21:19.000Literally for no reason, just randomly for no reason at all, there's a scene where she's in the air and then she whips lightning and you're like, okay.
02:21:24.000Was I confused, but where did that gold costume come from?
02:21:26.000I don't know, it just magically appears.
02:22:07.000And they couldn't explain why Cheetah was a cheetah.
02:22:11.000It's just like, all of a sudden, she's an animal.
02:22:13.000On the graphics, they lost the budget, like, three-fourths of the movie, and they were like, all right, we gotta use the budget, the budget production house for this one, and it was, like, not even believable.
02:22:21.000I know it was, like, a cheat, that shouldn't be believable, but it was really bad.
02:22:23.000It's too bad, too, because I think it's, like, really easy to have fixed what was wrong with that movie if you just, like, adjust certain things in certain places.
02:22:31.000But it's true for so many movies that come out.
02:22:37.000Like, they, earlier the year, it was supposed to come out in June or whatever, and I think they probably were restricted on doing a bunch of things.
02:22:43.000They had to do a bunch of reshoots in 2019.
02:22:44.000Whenever you see a movie have to do reshoots, you know there's a problem from the very beginning.
02:22:49.000Yeah, they watched it and they were like, wait, how did that happen?
02:22:52.000I don't know, it's like, we just filmed it.
02:23:30.000I was happy that Chris Pine was coming back, and his character just literally meant nothing.
02:23:35.000The problem with this movie, so spoiler alerts again.
02:23:39.000Okay, now that I've warned you about the spoilers, you've got this wishing stone, and when you wish for something, you get what you wish for, but it takes your most prized possession.
02:23:48.000And so that's just like the stupidest thing ever, because if you could wish for whatever you wanted, you'd value it more than your most prized possession.
02:25:44.000No, but I love how it's like the premise is that he has to, if people are touching him and make a wish, then he can grant the wish, but take something from them.
02:25:51.000And so he's like, the radio waves are touching people.
02:25:54.000They're like, yes, the radios are touching people.
02:26:04.000And then it's like there's like some like lasso touching some guy's leg and he's in some super saiyan mode and then here's the best part like what was this about how like everyone just saw some person say something on tv and they're like oh my gosh there's an above average woman telling me to do something Hey, all right make sense by mass compliance I'm gonna do it right now and like everybody did and the best part about this is spoiler is like did you notice when like?
02:26:29.000Things were reversing in the world and things were happening that like people's houses that got destroyed didn't like get fixed like Everyone's houses was still in rubble so they're like oh cool and everyone just forgets the whole world was about to blow up and then like Everyone's it's snowing and then like people are happy again.
02:26:45.000Oh, this is definitely shot before kovat That's all I was thinking I was like It's this, you know, I'm sorry man, but if the plot of a movie is there's a rock that can grant literally any wish you want, in exchange for your most prized possession, why would the dude wish to be the rock?
02:27:01.000Spoiler alert, he goes, I wish I was you, and then it collapses and then he gains the powers to grant wishes.
02:27:07.000It's like, why wouldn't you just wish to like, you know, like, have...
02:30:22.000And the SJWs and Lucasfilms are just not happy.
02:30:25.000I mean, that guy Star Wars Theory on YouTube, one of the Lucasfilms, not an executive, but I think one of the, like, one of the creators that was involved with The Last Jedi, because Star Wars Theory, for those that know his channel, he's huge, right?
02:30:38.000uh he gave his reaction on the episode and he was crying because a lot of people were like this is this is a big moment for star wars fans especially after the last jedi and one of the lucas films creators criticized him on twitter saying oh you're not supposed to show your emotions or uh emotions are not to be shown and then he completely like backtracked and lucas films even issued an apology and the guy gave like this freaking not even a full apology it's like this whole drama so what i saw was that Uh, for those that aren't familiar, spoiler alert, oh well, we already told you.
02:31:09.000Luke Skywalker is in The Mandalorian, and apparently they're mad that he's a white male hero who returned, and they don't like that, but isn't the Mandalorian a, you know, white male?
02:31:32.000And it gave me some reminiscence, and I'm finally coming to the conclusion, just like my conclusion about how, you know, the police aren't always good.
02:31:39.000Like, Star Wars is definitely a super cool series when you get into it as a kid, and you don't understand plot.
02:31:45.000But as you get older, you realize that it's exact example of Hollywood taking something that could be perfect and just Causing more problems than is needed like the plot holes the storyline sometimes the cheap CGI It's like you almost feel like this movie could have been the best series in the history of the world and it's always cool to watch but it's like what if the people who made Lord of the Rings like Peter Jackson made Star Wars like as a producer with Lucas or something then maybe we could have gotten something with a lot more depth of character like movies that made sense
02:32:16.000The first movie, because this was the 70s and people hadn't seen space battles before.
02:32:21.000It was like revolutions in CGI, like a lightsaber, how they were doing this stuff had never been done.
02:32:27.000So you're young, and you go to the movies and you're literally watching spaceships and you're like, wow, man.
02:32:32.000So, people don't realize, I think the movies were like years apart, like three years, like from Star Wars to Empire Strikes Back and then to like Return of the Jedi.
02:32:41.000These were huge movies for the time that were revolutions in movie technology.
02:32:47.000And then that spawned Merchandise, which made a ton of money, and it made a bunch of the Extended Universe books and stuff that explored the universe of Star Wars, which fans loved.
02:32:55.000And I don't know a whole lot about it, but I did play Knights of the Old Republic, which was a lot of fun.
02:33:22.000Yeah, just like everything's overly dramatic and absurd and I was like, you know, what I don't, what I never really
02:33:28.000liked about Revenge of the Sith is how like Anakin Skywalker just, they make him just break randomly.
02:33:36.000There's no progression in his character to him becoming evil.
02:33:39.000Like there's a little bit stuff like in the previous movie, he kills the women and the children or whatever.
02:33:43.000And then you have in Return of the Sith, I just watched it again because that line about when Obi-Wan says, my allegiance is to the Republic, to democracy.
02:33:53.000I was actually planning on, you know, doing that as a bit in one of my segments where I was talking about police.
02:33:58.000I was going to be like, you have these cops who believe they're bringing, you know, peace, justice and security to their new empire.
02:34:04.000But their allegiance is supposed to be to the Republic, to democracy.
02:34:07.000And so I was like, I want to watch this movie again.
02:34:17.000But I think even with the Mandalorian right now.
02:34:20.000Star Wars was like, hey, we found something popular, can we turn it into something more than that?
02:34:24.000And they're milking it for as much as they can.
02:34:26.000The sequel movies were just the worst garbage ever.
02:34:29.000You know, uh, um... The Force Awakens was okay, but it was basically a shot-for-shot remake of A New Hope.
02:34:34.000And then The Last Jedi was one of the worst movies I've ever seen in my life.
02:34:37.000I wanted to leave the theater, but I was like, I can't, it's Star Wars, you know, I need to, like, I need to watch it, but man, was that bad!
02:34:43.000I fell asleep in Episode VIII and stopped Star Wars there.
02:34:47.000They're like, the Emperor has returned!
02:34:48.000the last no no what's the rise of skywriter that was just so awful they're
02:34:52.000like the Emperor has returned like jump yeah right and I loved how they had to
02:34:59.000bring Carrie Fisher back and so she gives these one-word non-answers because
02:35:03.000they can't because she died you know you know with respect rest in peace
02:35:07.000But like, they tried keeping her in the movie, and it was clear they had some old footage from the previous movie.
02:35:11.000They were trying to somehow turn into her giving statements, but then she just doesn't say anything and, you know, froze her brow and then walks away.
02:35:20.000Dude, if the creators of Star Wars were forced to create a porno, they would make it Star Jabba the Hutt.
02:35:27.000That's how bad they are, in my opinion.
02:36:47.000It's, you know, so with that movie particularly, you have all these movies that are predicated upon someone being dumb, and then you're just watching someone be dumb and then deal with the mistakes of being dumb.
02:36:58.000Like, why would I want to watch that as a form of entertainment?
02:37:01.000Like, why couldn't they have made that movie, you know, so the whole plot... Well, I don't want to spoil it.
02:37:31.000With The Last Jedi, I really felt like Like, it made sense because, like, Luke is, like, in a slump, and he has to kind of find his way back.
02:37:42.000And I get it, because Luke was like that from the very beginning in A New Hope.
02:37:46.000He was this bratty teenage kid that didn't believe in anything of the Force, and then Yoda tries to train him, and he's, like, still this bratty kid that can't get anything done.
02:37:56.000So, it kind of made sense that Luke was kind of in that slump again in The Last Jedi, but it shouldn't have been the whole movie.
02:38:02.000What I really liked about the original Star Wars is that it's basically about this kid who lives on a desert planet who gets radicalized by religious zealots to take a cargo ship and go blow up a military base.
02:38:27.000So far we're playing on being there, but we're going to have some crew go down and test everything, see if we can get set up, and then do the show there.
02:38:48.000You guys can follow me on Twitter, Drew H. Live, and my podcast is at the Tatum Report YouTube channel, Drew H. Live, and you guys can find it there.
02:40:01.000You need like the kids cheering sound anytime your name's mentioned.
02:40:07.000I have no idea what's going to happen tomorrow, but people are arriving right now as per the news that Enrique got arrested, so should be interesting nonetheless.
02:40:17.000I was going to say, if you don't want to know what's going on tomorrow, honestly, there's a lot of journalists that are out there, including myself on Twitter, at Elijah Schaefer Drew.
02:40:24.000Honestly, if you go to our pages, I'll be tagging a bunch of people that you can follow during the event.
02:40:28.000There's about 12 to 15 really reputable journalists from like center left to center right.
02:40:33.000So make sure you get on Twitter, check out Tim's.
02:40:35.000Tim will be reposting a lot of the stuff, I'm sure, too, of what's happening.
02:40:39.000But please, like, be on Twitter so you can help keep the narrative straight.
02:40:41.000I know that's, like, a weird thing to, like, interrupt, but just... The news is gonna be lying, and so please try to keep people updated.
02:40:47.000We're gonna try to have a stream from our hotel, which, you know, we'll be able to get clips from people on the ground.
02:40:54.000If the internet isn't working all that well, we'll be working with local journalists.
02:40:57.000We'll bring people up to talk about what's going on, and then... Nice.
02:41:04.000Doing the podcast, you know, during the event, and then people can come up to the hotel room and sit down and hang out and we can talk and we'll be live.
02:41:11.000The issue is that, you know, often we have big crowds, it's really hard to get a live stream up, a good one.
02:41:15.000And so, sure, you have like the live view packs, the bonding agent, the cell bonding systems and stuff.
