Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Timcast IRL - Trump Deploys Feds Into Seattle, Politicians SHOCKED Leftists Vandalized Their Homes

00:00:00.000 Apparently, Anthony Fauci threw the opening pitch of, like, the first game, I guess.

00:00:06.000 And he threw it sideways.

00:00:07.000 It was, honestly, it was quite satisfying to see that for some reason.

00:00:11.000 I don't know why.

00:00:11.000 Maybe because I know I can throw a good pitch.

00:00:14.000 I was a pitcher for a little bit, and I know how to throw the ball straight.

00:00:19.000 Something about that.

00:00:20.000 It was really weird.

00:00:21.000 I'm like, I don't understand people don't know how to throw a ball Yeah, is that is that I don't think that's surprising.

00:00:21.000 I was watching that.

00:00:27.000 Is that what what kind of privilege would that be what having hand-eye coordination?

00:00:31.000 Yeah.

00:00:32.000 Are you are you are we accidentally being ableist towards dr. Fauci because he can't throw a baseball.

00:00:36.000 Yeah, but didn't Trump threw the ball once right I think he also did a terrible job.

00:00:41.000 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:00:42.000 That's why I'm like, whenever I watch these things, it's like they can't throw a baseball.

00:00:45.000 I mean, Trump grew up in a business household.

00:00:48.000 His dad was a businessman.

00:00:50.000 Business, business, business.

00:00:51.000 He was groomed for business, too.

00:00:55.000 They weren't out playing sports.

00:00:57.000 You know what I was thinking once?

00:00:58.000 What?

00:00:59.000 I wonder how often Donald Trump has actually walked a full block.

00:01:04.000 Interesting.

00:01:04.000 I mean it.

00:01:05.000 Because, like, you have to imagine... Obviously, I'm being a little facetious.

00:01:09.000 I know he walks.

00:01:10.000 But for a lot of his life, I'm sure, like, he'd walk out the front door and walk into a car.

00:01:14.000 Living in New York, for instance.

00:01:15.000 Or getting in the helicopter.

00:01:17.000 That too?

00:01:18.000 Over to the elevator, down to his office.

00:01:20.000 When I was a kid, if I wanted to go to the local skate park, it was three miles.

00:01:23.000 So I'd skate three miles to get there.

00:01:26.000 Like, when I was a kid, I had to go skate three miles!

00:01:28.000 Uphill both ways!

00:01:30.000 Yeah, uphill both ways.

00:01:32.000 You're like somehow in one of those, what is it, M.C.

00:01:36.000 Escher drawings?

00:01:36.000 Yeah.

00:01:38.000 Donald Trump probably walks up the building and then just walked into a car and then drove where he needed to go.

00:01:42.000 Yeah.

00:01:43.000 So, well I guess he plays, even in golfing he's just in a golf cart.

00:01:46.000 Walking is good for you, you should walk.

00:01:48.000 You know what?

00:01:48.000 This is actually rather important.

00:01:50.000 I'm just going to take the reins.

00:01:52.000 Congratulations to you two and to myself.

00:01:55.000 For 100 episodes?

00:01:56.000 This is officially our 100th episode.

00:02:00.000 Thank you, everybody.

00:02:08.000 Cheers, man.

00:02:10.000 Thank you, everybody.

00:02:11.000 This is awesome.

00:02:12.000 Let's get 50,000 likes for our 100th episode.

00:02:16.000 50,000 likes.

00:02:18.000 Let's see if we can do it.

00:02:19.000 Smash that like button for us for our 100th episode.

00:02:22.000 Let's see it.

00:02:22.000 Smash it!

00:02:23.000 Come on! 0.61

00:02:24.000 I was purposely choosing an unattainable... It was a big ask.

00:02:27.000 I was invoking my inner Trump.

00:02:30.000 50,000 likes.

00:02:31.000 No, I want 50,000.

00:02:32.000 Then when we get 30, I'll be like, it's okay.

00:02:35.000 It's okay.

00:02:36.000 It is the big ask, right?

00:02:37.000 Right.

00:02:37.000 And then when it comes down, everyone's like, let's try and get 50.

00:02:39.000 We get 30, we're good, we're good.

00:02:41.000 Everybody agrees.

00:02:42.000 Well, in all seriousness, Trump is deploying a tactical team into Seattle, expanding his presence beyond Portland, because there's been some unrest, but there's also, I guess, crime is surging everywhere.

00:02:55.000 I don't know if shootings and stuff are going up in Seattle as well, but there was a big riot a couple days ago, where they were throwing commercial-grade fireworks.

00:03:03.000 It's because you can drive from Seattle to Portland, like, it's like a day trip, I guess.

00:03:06.000 Okay.

00:03:07.000 Yeah, so it's like, the Portland people will be like, ooh, let's go to Seattle tonight, you know, whatever, and then they come down to Portland.

00:03:12.000 Actually, I'd be willing to bet a lot of the people in Portland who are, you know, rioting or whatever you want to call it, probably come from Seattle.

00:03:18.000 Yeah, that makes sense, actually.

00:03:18.000 Some of them probably from Eugene, some of them from Olympia.

00:03:21.000 I can see that.

00:03:22.000 Yeah, so aside from that, we definitely got to talk about... I guess I'll just push it to 11.

00:03:29.000 The government of Portland has joined in the insurrection against the federal government.

00:03:34.000 Now, to actually explain that, literally, Mayor Ted Wheeler of Portland joined in the group that was showing up and rioting in front of the federal building.

00:03:43.000 And it's funny because he's a Democrat, he's the mayor, and he just literally walked into Trump's hands.

00:03:50.000 And he's the police commissioner.

00:03:52.000 Yeah, yep.

00:03:53.000 And then here's the best part.

00:03:54.000 Adam noticed this.

00:03:55.000 As soon as he goes inside, like he's leaving, then the Portland police go, it's a riot now.

00:04:00.000 30 minutes later.

00:04:01.000 Yeah, as soon as he goes inside the building, then it's a riot.

00:04:05.000 So when they were throwing commercial-grade fireworks and lighting fires and fighting the police, it was fine until Mayor Ted Wheeler leaves, and then it's a riot.

00:04:13.000 Well, once the photo op was done, then it was like, all right, all right, I'm in the clear.

00:04:18.000 Yeah, man.

00:04:19.000 So the funny thing about what's going on in Seattle is that these far leftists are actually marching with a Seattle councilwoman.

00:04:28.000 Two other council members' houses vandalizing them and demanding they bend to their whim.

00:04:35.000 That's been going on for a while, too, because that whole thing came up, like, right after... Right as Chaz was kind of being deconstructed.

00:04:42.000 Because they went to... She was trying to, like, bring charges against that other councilwoman because she was, like, she... I mean, her address was private information, and she was like, come on, guys, I got her address, let's go!

00:04:55.000 So what do you call it when...

00:04:58.000 One politician leads a group of typically violent mobs to the home of rival politicians who are refusing to vote in their favor.

00:05:08.000 Could you imagine that if like, you know, Chuck Schumer showed up to Mitch McConnell's house with a group of protesters and they started graffiting up his house being like, support our, you know, defund the police bill.

00:05:18.000 It'd be like, What are you doing?

00:05:21.000 That's crazy!

00:05:22.000 I mean, my first thought is extortion, but it's coercion.

00:05:29.000 Man, there's all sorts of stuff going on there.

00:05:31.000 Maxine Waters said, if you see these people, get in their faces.

00:05:35.000 Do you remember what she said exactly?

00:05:37.000 She said, get in their faces. 1.00

00:05:38.000 Yeah, cause trouble.

00:05:39.000 Tell them they're not welcome.

00:05:40.000 It's messed up.

00:05:41.000 And then a bunch of Republicans Got like protested at various restaurants while they were trying to eat and stuff.

00:05:48.000 And then it's just escalated from there.

00:05:50.000 But then you have, you know, the people in New York saying to their citizens, stop calling police.

00:05:56.000 If people are lighting up fireworks, just go tell them to stop lighting up fireworks.

00:06:00.000 And the lady got shot. 1.00

00:06:00.000 And the lady got killed. 1.00

00:06:02.000 Shot and killed for doing that.

00:06:04.000 So here's what's happening, man. 0.93

00:06:05.000 We got Trump sending in the feds.

00:06:07.000 to a variety of cities, but this is not the same thing as Portland.

00:06:12.000 And man, we got to go through this segment where I would.

00:06:16.000 So I do my 6 p.m. segments, basically all back to back.

00:06:18.000 It's like 10 minutes, 10 minutes, 10 minutes.

00:06:20.000 They're all like much quicker segments.

00:06:21.000 Yeah.

00:06:21.000 And I was reading one about Philly saying like, we will arrest the feds.

00:06:25.000 And the fake news was the thickest I have ever seen.

00:06:30.000 I really felt like, it's almost like you're walking and then all of a sudden the air turns to like a thick nacho cheese.

00:06:37.000 You're trying to like move through it and you're like, I can't!

00:06:39.000 It's the fake news!

00:06:40.000 It's too much!

00:06:41.000 I almost just stopped recording.

00:06:42.000 I was like, I can't, I can't even read this.

00:06:44.000 Wow.

00:06:44.000 It was so insanely fake.

00:06:47.000 It's like, imagine if you're reading the stories like, Donald Trump today pulled out a 9mm handgun and started firing it into the Rose Garden at journalists.

00:06:54.000 You'd be like, whoa, wait, what?

00:06:55.000 It's like that level of insanity.

00:06:58.000 Where they're just making everything up.

00:07:01.000 And then the worst part was like, they're interviewing the prosecutor.

00:07:05.000 He's a lawyer, so he knows how to use clever language to manipulate.

00:07:09.000 And he's doing this thing where he's like, apparently illegal.

00:07:13.000 Because it wasn't illegal, what the feds are doing.

00:07:15.000 And he's saying- Apparently illegal.

00:07:19.000 He uses an assumptive trick.

00:07:20.000 One of these tricks would be like this.

00:07:22.000 I can't believe Adam Krigler just did that.

00:07:25.000 I denounce what he did.

00:07:26.000 Now, if he was in my house and somebody was, you know, flinging human waste at the walls, I'd be outraged.

00:07:33.000 The trick is that I never said Adam actually did it.

00:07:35.000 I just said I'm outraged at what he did and then talk about something totally different.

00:07:39.000 And that's what the prosecutor's doing so they can make this fake story where you think they're actually accusing the feds of kidnapping and renditioning people.

00:07:49.000 I throw feces at the wall in the privacy of my own home.

00:07:51.000 No one knows about this.

00:07:52.000 So I keep that to myself.

00:07:54.000 Fake news.

00:08:00.000 Alright, let's actually just talk about what's going on.

00:08:40.000 Talk about Tincast IRL.

00:08:41.000 Nice, good one.

00:08:42.000 All right, let's check this out.

00:08:44.000 The New York Times says, Fed sending tactical team to Seattle, expanding presence beyond Portland.

00:08:50.000 After outrage over the presence of federal agents in Portland, Oregon, the Trump administration is sending a team to Seattle officials say they will be on standby.

00:08:57.000 I bet this means a whole lot of nothing will happen.

00:09:00.000 Yep.

00:09:01.000 Alright, they say the special response team being deployed is similar to the tactical teams currently operating in Portland, Oregon, where local officials have been vehemently objected to their efforts to subdue street protests.

00:09:12.000 Come on, man, let's stop playing these games.

00:09:14.000 Yep.

00:09:14.000 Protests?

00:09:15.000 Hmm.

00:09:16.000 They declared it a riot yesterday.

00:09:18.000 The Portland police said it was a riot.

00:09:20.000 Can you please just call it a riot?

00:09:22.000 Who gets to decide that?

00:09:23.000 Whatever.

00:09:24.000 Seattle officials have also said they do not want federal agents sent to target protesters.

00:09:28.000 Okay, that's no— I agree.

00:09:29.000 I would not want federal agents to target protesters either.

00:09:31.000 Agreed.

00:09:32.000 If you're out there protesting, you have my 100% support.

00:09:32.000 Yeah.

00:09:35.000 I think we all agree.

00:09:36.000 Now, if you're rioting, send in the feds. 0.96

00:09:36.000 Absolutely. 0.96

00:09:40.000 Agents from the SRT, operated under the U.S.

00:09:43.000 Customs and Border Protection Agency, are typically deployed for intense law enforcement operations, similar to the agency's BORTEC group that is operated in Portland.

00:09:51.000 The CBP team will be on standby in the area should they be required, the Federal Protective Service said in a statement about the Seattle effort.

00:09:59.000 A spokesperson for the agency requested anonymity to speak about the operation, said the border officers were sent to back up the FPS, charged with protecting federal buildings, and would only be used if protests expected this weekend escalate out of control, and they will.

00:10:15.000 Yeah.

00:10:16.000 Seattle's Mayor Jenny Durkan said in an interview that she spoke earlier with Chad Wolf, the acting Secretary of Homeland Security.

00:10:21.000 She said he had assured her that the administration had no plans to deploy a surge of agents to Seattle and would not do so without communicating with the city.

00:10:29.000 She had not been alerted to plans to position the tactical team, but said that the department may be distinguishing between an active deployment and agents who are on standby.

00:10:38.000 Now, why do you think they're gonna be sending this special response team up to Seattle?

00:10:45.000 Because the powers that are in control over there are very quickly losing control.

00:10:51.000 They're doing nothing.

00:10:52.000 That's all for sure?

00:10:53.000 Same as like what we're seeing in Portland.

00:10:54.000 But hold on, hold on.

00:10:56.000 It's not so simple to say that.

00:10:57.000 At least I don't think so.

00:10:58.000 Okay.

00:10:59.000 Take a look at this story from the Washington Post.

00:11:01.000 Twelve officers injured.

00:11:03.000 Two protesters arrested in Seattle as multiple businesses vandalized.

00:11:07.000 Whoa! 0.71

00:11:08.000 Whoa, whoa, whoa.

00:11:09.000 So wait, they were protesting while vandalizing and destroying businesses?

00:11:14.000 Well, they're rioting.

00:11:15.000 But hold on, hold on a minute.

00:11:16.000 You mean to tell me that in Seattle right now, these violent thugs are going around destroying private property?

00:11:23.000 I will not stand for this.

00:11:24.000 Certainly, that must be the reason that Trump is now sending in the special response team.

00:11:29.000 No, that's not it either.

00:11:30.000 You want to see what it is?

00:11:32.000 Oh, please, please tell me.

00:11:33.000 I'll show you what it is.

00:11:35.000 Because this is from yesterday.

00:11:37.000 Seattle City Council President Addresses Protests Targeting Council Members' Houses.

00:11:42.000 OK, I'm kidding.

00:11:43.000 I don't think Trump is actually sending in federal agents because the protesters are showing up to politicians' homes.

00:11:50.000 But I do think it's kind of hilarious that the CHAZ, the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone in Seattle, can operate even with people literally being shot several times.

00:11:59.000 And the mayor's like, well, you know, hold on.

00:12:01.000 It could be a summer of love.

00:12:02.000 Bang, bang. 0.99

00:12:03.000 Some people die.

00:12:03.000 And then, well, hold on.

00:12:04.000 Then they show up to the mayor's house, and then all of a sudden she's like, and she's demanding charges for the councilman that led the protesters to her house.

00:12:13.000 And then Chaz was purged with an iron fist.

00:12:16.000 Yeah, they cleaned it up in under an hour.

00:12:18.000 Yep.

00:12:19.000 Actually, it was like, it was like 10 minutes.

00:12:22.000 Everyone was gone.

00:12:23.000 And then they spent the rest of the hour just like disassembling fences and stuff.

00:12:27.000 She's like, Mayor Jenny Durkan is like, got her hands behind her back in her like, her study with there's books all around her and they're like, Mayor Durkin, they've shut up to your home.

00:12:35.000 You bite the hand that feeds you.

00:12:38.000 Crash them! 0.99

00:12:39.000 And then like she hits a button and then like a bunch of cops like run out of a, you know,

00:12:43.000 out of a garage like the door opens up.

00:12:46.000 They wipe that Chaz out. 1.00

00:12:47.000 So like that.

00:12:48.000 So think about it.

00:12:49.000 They were working together.

00:12:50.000 It was all just a trap to blame Trump.

00:12:53.000 I mean, she was letting it happen, in my opinion.

00:12:56.000 I know she was.

00:12:57.000 Because she wanted to be like, come on Trump, take the bait.

00:13:00.000 And he didn't do it.

00:13:01.000 So then when they showed up to her house, she was like, no!

00:13:03.000 And she crushed them.

00:13:05.000 The bait's starting to bite me.

00:13:06.000 Think about how easily, how easily she crushed the Chazz. 1.00

00:13:10.000 As soon as they went to her house.

00:13:13.000 She probably, I swear, she probably slammed her fist on the table. 1.00

00:13:16.000 Crush them! 0.80

00:13:17.000 And then they did.

00:13:18.000 Now look at what's happening in Seattle.

00:13:21.000 It's in the same city, obviously.

00:13:23.000 But you have this woman, I don't know her name is Sawant or whatever.

00:13:27.000 She's on the city council and she's leading the protesters to the homes of other... I don't want to show the photo because it's like they vandalized the door.

00:13:36.000 They wrote swears and stuff saying like, get the F out and stuff like that.

00:13:41.000 You know, it's graffiti on these people's home.

00:13:44.000 And I guess their addresses are private, but they were led there by this councilwoman.

00:13:49.000 And so you also have in Oakland, they actually showed up to the mayor's house and totally vandalized it, launching fireworks at it.

00:13:56.000 So sure enough, these people are desperately crossing their fingers that Trump will, you know, send in law enforcement because they want to make them look bad.

00:14:03.000 I think Trump's winning.

00:14:04.000 I think so too.

00:14:08.000 I'm just going to show this right now.

00:14:10.000 So check this out.

00:14:12.000 This is CivIQs and it is of registered voters.

00:14:17.000 Black Lives Matter, do you support or oppose the Black Lives Matter movement?

00:14:21.000 And opposition to Black Lives Matter has been spiking since the start of the riots, and people who consider themselves neither in support of or opposition to has gone down dramatically.

00:14:32.000 What does that mean?

00:14:34.000 Fence-sitters have gotten off the fence and joined the opposition.

00:14:38.000 The interesting thing about it as to why I think Trump is winning is this metric right here.

00:14:42.000 Race.

00:14:42.000 Check this out.

00:14:43.000 Among white people, it is now inverted.

00:14:46.000 For a minute, white people actually supported Black Lives Matter, substantial support.

00:14:51.000 Since the riots, it's flipped in favor of the opposition.

00:14:55.000 Well, because it's becoming more and more apparent that it's not about Black Lives Matter,

00:14:58.000 it's about whatever narrative that they're pushing because people are seeing that there's black lives

00:15:06.000 that don't matter to them and only specific black lives matter to them and that doesn't make any sense.

00:15:12.000 Yeah, you're not gonna see them cheering for Jesse Lee Peterson or Candace Owens

00:15:16.000 or the Hodge twins or Terrence Williams.

00:15:18.000 No, no, they're the wrong thinkers.

00:15:20.000 So it's like they're trying to convince us that And convince most people that you don't believe this, so I need to scream it at you for you to believe it.

00:15:30.000 And it's like, wait, what are you talking about?

00:15:32.000 Of course we believe it.

00:15:33.000 Of course we think Black Lives Matter. 0.91

00:15:35.000 Duh.

00:15:36.000 Yeah, of course.

00:15:36.000 You know what I find funny?

00:15:38.000 That proves it's not about race or even orientation or identity.

00:15:43.000 is that you literally have trans Trump supporters and black Trump supporters

00:15:47.000 and Latino Trump supporters. 0.68

00:15:48.000 Yep, exactly. 0.99

00:15:48.000 You have, you know, gays for Trump, you have Latinos for Trump, you have blacks for Trump. 0.99

00:15:53.000 The Republicans are really trying to, you know, build a coalition, a diverse coalition.

00:16:02.000 Not that they're as successful as Democrats, because Democrats for whatever reason just, you know, have historically controlled votes in certain areas.

00:16:09.000 That's why Kanye West comes out and says like, you know, I think it has a lot to do with social pressure, thinking that they're guaranteed.

00:16:16.000 And now Joe Biden comes out.

00:16:18.000 You know, the thing about what Joe Biden said when he was like, if you don't know who you're for, you know, you ain't black.

00:16:23.000 I think he thought, you know, look, in 2012, that would have played.

00:16:26.000 That would have worked.

00:16:27.000 They would have all laughed and be like, you're right, Joe Biden.

00:16:30.000 But he doesn't understand that today.

00:16:32.000 No way, man.

00:16:33.000 There's a lot of support for Trump in the African-American community.

00:16:36.000 Charlamagne just came out against him today.

00:16:39.000 I didn't read an article, but I saw it in passing and I was like, oh, wow.

00:16:42.000 He started snapping on Biden.

00:16:43.000 I want to get into what he was saying.

00:16:45.000 So anyway, Donald Trump is deploying these law enforcement officers around the country.

00:16:51.000 Yeah.

00:16:51.000 And you know we should have pulled up the Cato Institute thing we did the other day?

00:16:54.000 Oh yeah.

00:16:55.000 But this poll from the Cato Institute shows there is only one political alignment in this country that is comfortable expressing their opinions, and it's the far left.

00:17:05.000 Yep.

00:17:05.000 They say strong liberals, so I'll say strong liberal.

00:17:07.000 Among strong conservative, conservative moderates, and liberals, they are all scared to say their opinions.

00:17:15.000 All of them.

00:17:16.000 That's because they're all voting for Trump.

00:17:19.000 Or they're critical of Black Lives Matter.

00:17:22.000 So why is Donald Trump deploying law enforcement, even though the media is screaming, Trump is a Cheeto dictator?

00:17:30.000 It's because one faction of people speaking up does not represent the entirety of the country.

00:17:36.000 Exactly.

00:17:36.000 And so if liberals are scared to speak up, he's probably going to grab a decent amount of liberals who are going to be like, please just shut it down.

00:17:43.000 Moderates?

00:17:43.000 Absolutely.

00:17:44.000 And conservatives?

00:17:44.000 Oh, conservatives, of course.

00:17:46.000 They love Trump.

00:17:47.000 Yeah.

00:17:48.000 So you take a look, I brought this up earlier, you take a look at what happened in Chicago, I think June 8th, with all the rioting.

00:17:55.000 So you look at this and you can see that once the rioting started, opposition started skyrocketing among white people.

00:18:01.000 And then I remembered that article where, it was a leaked recording, where an alderman in Chicago, it's like a neighborhood mayor essentially, Talked to the actual mayor of Chicago and was cussing her out, saying like, they're coming.

00:18:13.000 The riots are coming to our neighborhoods.

00:18:15.000 Stop them.

00:18:16.000 And now the craziest thing is that you literally have the neighborhoods begging to stop the rioting.

00:18:22.000 And the mayor says no.

00:18:24.000 And Trump said yes.

00:18:25.000 Trump knows who he's supporting.

00:18:28.000 He knows who he's targeting.

00:18:29.000 Yeah, the American people.

00:18:30.000 That's who he's supporting.

00:18:31.000 He's supporting residential neighborhoods, not the business interests, not the downtown areas, and not the one faction of people who think think they're allowed to speak. Or the establishment

00:18:41.000 governmental, you know, circles, which could be Democrats and Republicans. No one's,

00:18:46.000 you know, everyone could be in that circle, you know, and he's just

00:18:49.000 saying no. We gotta protect the American public. That's why Operation

00:18:53.000 Legend was so, I was just like, yes, because he wasn't talking about who's

00:18:57.000 to blame. He was just talking about protecting the American people that are

00:19:00.000 getting hurt by all this I think they... I think they made a big mistake.

00:19:05.000 Who's they?

00:19:06.000 The Democrats.

00:19:07.000 Yeah, I agree.

00:19:08.000 Ted Wheeler came out, and so... Actually, let's do this now.

00:19:11.000 Let's jump over to what Ted Wheeler's been doing.

00:19:14.000 This, to me, was one of the most shockingly irresponsible things anyone could ever say in a position of government. 0.99

00:19:21.000 This guy's disgusting. 0.88

00:19:22.000 I believe that Mayor Ted Wheeler is actively trying to incite extreme violence, death, and mayhem. 0.99

00:19:28.000 Agreed.

00:19:28.000 He tweeted, I kid you, I kid you not, he said, This afternoon, I was made aware of concerns within the community that federal agents may be authorized to use live ammunition on demonstrators this evening.

00:19:41.000 Stop.

00:19:42.000 Wow.

00:19:43.000 When people follow or see a retweet, they don't see what follows next.

00:19:47.000 They see that one tweet where he says they're concerned federal agents may be authorized to use live ammo.

00:19:53.000 What's the point of that?

00:19:55.000 Scaring everybody?

00:19:56.000 And what do you think a scared person's gonna do?

00:20:00.000 Well, first blame someone.

00:20:02.000 I don't know.

00:20:02.000 Well, yeah, maybe.

00:20:03.000 But if they're intent on going to protest, and they're now terrified that the feds may use live ammo.

00:20:09.000 But it probably won't go then.

00:20:10.000 I don't think so.

00:20:11.000 I think they'll go.

00:20:12.000 And I think they'll bring their own live ammo.

00:20:14.000 Ah, okay.

00:20:14.000 Yes.

00:20:15.000 So I think he's trying to get him scared.

00:20:16.000 You're gonna get a bunch of people like, oh man, I better start packing too.

00:20:20.000 That's the point.

00:20:21.000 He wants people to think this escalation is going to happen.

00:20:24.000 It's basically like implanting the idea in people's minds.

00:20:27.000 There's gonna be live bullets.

00:20:29.000 It's gonna happen.

00:20:30.000 Then he tweets, Given the deployment of federal agents to other American cities, and the clear escalation of the federal government, the information was alarming.

00:20:38.000 I have spoken with the U.S.

00:20:39.000 Attorney of Oregon, Billy Williams, who assures me that the federal government has no plans to use live ammunition on Portlanders tonight, and that such an order would be unlawful.

00:20:49.000 Nevertheless, I am sharing this information publicly out of an abundance of caution.

00:20:53.000 What?

00:20:54.000 As if they would actually start shooting these people.

00:20:58.000 Yeah.

00:20:59.000 They're Americans.

00:21:00.000 Those federal agents inside that building are Americans.

00:21:02.000 They're not trying to kill other Americans.

00:21:05.000 Who are you, Ted Wheeler?

00:21:06.000 I have some things I'd like to say to this man.

00:21:08.000 I can't do it on the public's platform right now.

00:21:11.000 If you plan to demonstrate tonight, please be safe.

00:21:14.000 Amazing.

00:21:15.000 Was he talking to himself?

00:21:18.000 Apparently.

00:21:19.000 So he goes out, and that was it for me.

00:21:21.000 Because I don't play these games of like, you know, look, at a certain point, I've talked about the Attorney General of Oregon is suing on behalf of the mob, of the insurrections.

00:21:33.000 So hold on, check this out.

00:21:35.000 There was a leaked court, it's not leaked, it was a court document that showed Operation, was it called Diligent Valor?

00:21:42.000 Diligent Valor, is that it?

00:21:43.000 I don't know what you're talking about.

00:21:44.000 Operation Diligent Valor.

00:21:46.000 Oh, the the yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:21:48.000 Yeah, I think that's right.

00:21:49.000 Is that it?

00:21:49.000 Was that what I get right?

00:21:50.000 Diligent Valor.

00:21:50.000 That's what it's called.

00:21:51.000 So there's Operation Legend and Diligent Valor.

00:21:53.000 Right.

00:21:53.000 Diligent Valor is the BORTAC, you know, the CBP deployment to protect federal buildings.

00:22:01.000 Legend is just federal law enforcement of a normal capacity assisting law enforcement.

00:22:06.000 So like in Chicago, they're sending FBI, DEA, ATF into their normal offices.

00:22:11.000 They're there already to just assist general law enforcement.

00:22:15.000 So you have this document get released.

00:22:19.000 And I kind of lost my train of thought because I'm thinking about Mary Ted Wheeler now.

00:22:23.000 So I'm going to go back to that.

00:22:25.000 Otherwise, I'm going to get angry.

00:22:28.000 Ted Wheeler has joined the protests.

00:22:32.000 Yeah.

00:22:32.000 This is, as far as I'm concerned, official government joining in, engaging in the insurrection against... Oh, I'm sorry.

00:22:40.000 Okay.

00:22:40.000 I now remember exactly the point I was trying to make.

00:22:42.000 With the diligent voter.

00:22:43.000 Yeah, the court documents said that the far left breached the courthouse on July 4th.

00:22:49.000 Okay.

00:22:50.000 That these people, insurrectionists, entered federal jurisdiction and that prompted the deployment of these officers, the federal agents, to go out and start clearing things out.

00:22:59.000 Right, they weren't there until they broke into the federal building.

00:23:02.000 On July 4th, the 39th day of writing.

00:23:04.000 And so that was the response.

00:23:06.000 If Ted Wheeler stands the police down as police commissioner, which he did, If the AG is suing in defense of the far left, then you have this guy now coming out, the mayor, joining in the riots, lying about it, getting tear gassed, basically assisting in an active insurrection against the federal government.

00:23:28.000 Yep.

00:23:28.000 That's how I see it.

00:23:29.000 I mean, I'm seeing it too.

00:23:31.000 Now I want to show you this.

00:23:32.000 This is something that Adam noticed.

00:23:34.000 You want to explain?

00:23:35.000 Yeah, sure.

00:23:35.000 Because you mentioned this to me and I was like, no way.

00:23:37.000 And I was like, you got to prove this.

00:23:39.000 Is this true?

00:23:40.000 Yeah.

00:23:40.000 All right.

00:23:40.000 So last night I was watching.

00:23:43.000 I really try to get as much on the ground reporting as I can.

00:23:47.000 And last night there was a lot of people that were following Ted Wheeler as he went out to the protests.

00:23:53.000 So the first video, people just start throwing stuff at him, dumping trash right in front of him, yelling at him, harassing him.

00:24:00.000 And this continued the entire time that he's walking through this.

00:24:04.000 But they're trying to interview him.

00:24:05.000 He's trying to talk to them.

00:24:06.000 They're like, are you going to defund the police?

00:24:09.000 And he's like, no, not at all.

00:24:11.000 And then you hear boos everywhere, and people start screaming.

00:24:15.000 And then you can hear him try to be like, yes, but the feds are the ones that are here.

00:24:20.000 We got to be angry at the feds, because they have no right to be here.

00:24:23.000 And, you know, they start asking him and they give their demands, which is get the feds out, let all the protesters free.

00:24:30.000 We'll do air quotes for protesters.

00:24:32.000 Yeah.

00:24:32.000 Their words, not yours.

00:24:33.000 Protesters.

00:24:35.000 Their words.

00:24:36.000 For him to, what is it?

00:24:39.000 What did he say?

00:24:40.000 It's defund the police by 50 percent.

00:24:41.000 Yeah, by 50 percent.

00:24:43.000 Release all the rioters.

00:24:45.000 Yeah.

00:24:46.000 They want feds out of Portland now and you, Ted Wheeler, must resign.

00:24:50.000 That's right.

00:24:50.000 Yeah, that was the last one.

00:24:52.000 So I'm seeing it, they're interviewing him, and he's moving through the crowds, he's trying to speak to them all.

00:24:58.000 He's clearly trying to be like, I'm on your side, we gotta get these feds out.

00:25:02.000 And then he goes over to the barricade in front of the courthouse, and he's talking to people, and then you see behind him the fireworks, the mortars.

00:25:11.000 Well, that's in one video, but in the ones that I was watching, you can see him standing there watching the fireworks go off over him into the courthouse.

00:25:21.000 And I'm like, okay, so what is he going to say?

00:25:24.000 How is he going to spin this?

00:25:25.000 What's going to happen here?

00:25:27.000 And then sure enough, the federal agents come out and start shooting tear gas.

00:25:31.000 Well, the best part is they say, when he's doing an interview in front of the barricades, you hear, you are on federal property.

00:25:37.000 You must disperse.

00:25:39.000 And it's like, okay, okay, hold on.

00:25:42.000 You're on federal property, Ted Wheeler.

00:25:44.000 You must disperse.

00:25:44.000 Right.

00:25:45.000 What are you doing?

00:25:46.000 Yeah.

00:25:46.000 And so, you know, he's playing it up like it's a peaceful protest while you can see people are attacking the building.

00:25:51.000 Mm-hmm.

00:25:52.000 They're throwing commercial-grade fireworks.

00:25:53.000 Yep.

00:25:54.000 And he's standing there, and then he gets tear gassed.

00:25:57.000 And then he gets interviewed, and he's like, man, this tear gas.

00:26:01.000 They have no reason to do any of this.

00:26:04.000 I haven't seen anything all night on why they should be doing this kind of stuff.

00:26:08.000 Oh, man.

00:26:10.000 It's so bad.

00:26:11.000 And then the camera pans?

00:26:12.000 Well, yeah, I don't know if that's the same interview, but he is being interviewed and the camera pans over from, like,

00:26:19.000 you can see the firework mortars going over the building, and then it pans over to him and he's being interviewed by

00:26:24.000 a bunch of people.

00:26:25.000 Like he's being interviewed and the camera turns just for some explosions.

00:26:28.000 Yeah.

00:26:29.000 Not from the Feds.

00:26:30.000 You know what the funny thing is?

00:26:32.000 The flashbangs the Feds use are less dangerous than the mortars.

00:26:36.000 Probably.

00:26:37.000 Flashbangs are loud and scary.

00:26:40.000 It's a flash and a sound.

00:26:42.000 Well, it's because that's what it's meant for.

00:26:44.000 A firework mortar is meant to go explode and send fireballs in the air and that's what it does right

00:26:49.000 So those are actually really dangerous, but the craziest thing about the night was uh was was this right here

00:26:55.000 So so adam comes down and he's like, did you see what happened with ted wheeler?

00:26:59.000 And I was like, of course I did like the dude went out joined in the whatever you want to call it

00:27:04.000 They're calling it protests spare me They've breached the building more than once, and they are showing up to engage in conflict.

00:27:11.000 It stopped being a protest the minute they threw explosives, and it stopped being a riot the moment they started breaching the building to attack feds.

00:27:18.000 Mayor Wheeler wants to get involved in that.

00:27:20.000 Now you've got the government's official involvement in insurrection.

00:27:24.000 Fine.

00:27:24.000 Whatever.

00:27:25.000 But this was the best part, because Adam, he comes down and he's like, you see what happened?

00:27:29.000 He's like, Ted Wheeler comes out, does his Potemkin PR stunt, then goes inside the building, and then the police declare a riot.

00:27:37.000 They're not going to declare a riot while he's out there.

00:27:39.000 It'd make him look bad.

00:27:41.000 So so so I was like you got we got to prove this we got to prove this so Adam ended up pulling up these these tweets from Mike Baker He's of the New York Times check this out at 3 o 2 a.m.

00:27:50.000 Wheeler leaves the scene Protesters throw water bottles at him and curse him He manages to get inside a building after a scuffle between protesters and a security detail so you can see here.

00:28:00.000 He is right here He's you know he's getting in the building his security guys like shove out the protesters like get out Wait, but go to the beginning of that video real quick.

00:28:08.000 Look, keep a little bit further back, a little bit further back.

00:28:12.000 Look at that mask-wearing skill.

00:28:14.000 He's got it on his chin in the middle of this protest.

00:28:16.000 He's taking it off because he's like, you know, camera op's done.

00:28:19.000 I'm gonna go inside now.

00:28:20.000 Don't gotta wear my mask.

00:28:22.000 I mean, they're filming.

00:28:22.000 But then he puts it up.

00:28:24.000 Yeah.

00:28:24.000 Why?

00:28:24.000 Someone put a camera in his face?

00:28:26.000 Probably.

00:28:26.000 Or he was itching his face.

00:28:27.000 I don't really care. 0.89

00:28:28.000 I just wanted to point that out, that silliness.

00:28:30.000 It's 3.02 a.m.

00:28:31.000 and he goes inside the building.

00:28:33.000 And they push the protesters out.

00:28:35.000 And a half an hour later, the Portland Police, a riot has been declared outside the Justice Center.

00:28:40.000 Disperse to the North and or West.

00:28:42.000 Disperse immediately.

00:28:43.000 Failure to adhere to this order may subject you to arrest or citation or riot control agents, including but not limited to tear gas and or impact weapons.

00:28:51.000 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:28:52.000 Hold on.

00:28:53.000 I thought they weren't allowed to use tear gas.

00:28:55.000 And everyone was saying, the Portland Police are already not allowed to use tear gas and it's the Feds who are doing it.

00:29:01.000 As soon as Ted Wheeler goes inside that building, Yep.

00:29:04.000 Half an hour later.

00:29:04.000 It was half an hour half an hour later, but all of this stuff was going on while he was out there

00:29:08.000 He's the police commissioner. Yes. He is you know I think happened

00:29:12.000 He went back inside and went and he walks back inside. He looks around he goes

00:29:16.000 That's a riot What are we going to do?

00:29:19.000 I bet he was scared the entire time, man.

00:29:22.000 I could see it.

00:29:23.000 He was trying to keep his cool, but he was scared.

00:29:26.000 He came back, like, you can kind of see it when he gets shoved into the building, the relief that's on his face.

00:29:31.000 Like, I am so happy I made it back in here.

00:29:34.000 I'm so happy.

00:29:35.000 Let's declare it a riot because it's getting crazy out there.

00:29:38.000 Donald, Donald Trump.

00:29:40.000 Okay.

00:29:42.000 Pulled a face-down card from his deck and placed it in front of him with his dual disc on his arm.

00:29:48.000 And then Ted Wheeler walked up and Trump went, Ha!

00:29:52.000 You just walked into my trap card.

00:29:54.000 It's the best trap card.

00:29:55.000 And then he revealed it and it was Democrat engages in riot.

00:29:58.000 Yep.

00:29:59.000 And now Trump's gonna be like, man, there is so much fuel he's gotten from this.

00:30:03.000 I think they actually had, at one point, they could have really, as soon as the vans came up and the cops came out and they went with this narrative of unmarked vehicles, that was powerful PR for the left.

00:30:16.000 But they couldn't help themselves.

00:30:18.000 No.

00:30:18.000 They couldn't do it.

00:30:19.000 So now Trump is going to come out.

00:30:22.000 As we showed you, the support for Black Lives Matter is the opposition to Black Lives Matter is going up because of these riots.

00:30:29.000 So if people don't like riots and Trump is saying, I'll stop the riots, guess who people will start to support?

00:30:36.000 Yeah.

00:30:37.000 Well, and the clear bias as what businesses they were taking down. 0.94

00:30:41.000 It's like they're out there yelling Black Lives Matter as they're destroying black businesses. 1.00

00:30:45.000 That's just been the case the entire time.

00:30:47.000 I know.

00:30:49.000 Can you pull that chart back up?

00:30:51.000 The one that shows...

00:30:52.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:30:53.000 So you can see right about the time.

00:30:55.000 It's like George Floyd gets killed.

00:30:57.000 Look at support going down.

00:30:57.000 And then support went up because everybody wanted justice.

00:31:02.000 I still do.

00:31:03.000 We all do.

00:31:04.000 And you know what?

00:31:05.000 We were getting it.

00:31:06.000 They were putting forward police reform bills that actually made sense.

00:31:10.000 But then they weren't accepting it.

00:31:12.000 They were like, no, denying it.

00:31:14.000 And then they started rioting and just started destroying all these minority businesses.

00:31:18.000 Here's what's really interesting about this graph.

00:31:20.000 You can see that over the past several months, The amount of people that don't, that neither support or oppose was actually slowly ticking upward.

00:31:28.000 So people were watching this and being like, you know, I don't know how I feel about this.

00:31:32.000 Now, I gotta clarify, that's unsure is unsure.

00:31:35.000 These are people who are saying, yeah, they do some good things, they do some bad things.

00:31:39.000 So what you were seeing is opposition was going down, right?

00:31:42.000 And support was slowly going up, and they were actually starting to win over the opposition.

00:31:48.000 If opposition goes down, and neither support or oppose goes up, it means people that normally were like, I don't like any of that, were now going, I guess they're okay, but I'm not for or against it, really.

00:31:58.000 And then they had to riot.

00:31:58.000 Yeah.

00:32:00.000 And then, whoop, inverted.

00:32:01.000 Worse than it's ever been right now.

00:32:04.000 13% neither support nor oppose.

00:32:06.000 Going back to May, it was 18.

00:32:08.000 And now- May of last year.

00:32:10.000 2019.

00:32:10.000 Of last year.

00:32:11.000 Exactly.

00:32:12.000 So 35% oppose it now.

00:32:14.000 However, to be fair, going back all the way, 42% opposed.

00:32:18.000 I think Trump's seeing this data, he's been seeing it from the get-go, and he's going, yep.

00:32:24.000 Send in the troops.

00:32:25.000 Yep.

00:32:25.000 Send in the cops.

00:32:26.000 Send in law enforcement.

00:32:27.000 We're gonna clean this mess up.

00:32:28.000 I mean, people are getting shot every day.

00:32:32.000 People are getting killed.

00:32:33.000 Little kids are getting shot and killed.

00:32:35.000 You know, Atlanta, Kansas City, New York City, Chicago, all these big cities.

00:32:40.000 And that's the important thing is that Operation Legend is not diligent valor.

00:32:46.000 That's correct.

00:32:46.000 What's going on in Portland is not... So this is crazy when you end up with stories like this.

00:32:53.000 Let's just, we gotta talk about this story, man.

00:32:57.000 Yeah, let's do it.

00:32:59.000 So we covered this the other day, that the DA in Philly said, you know, we'll arrest federal agents.

00:33:05.000 So this is him doubling down.

00:33:06.000 Philadelphia's top prosecutors prepared to arrest federal agents.

00:33:09.000 They do an interview with him.

00:33:11.000 So I'm reading through this and I'm just like, it is so insane.

00:33:16.000 I haven't seen this yet.

00:33:17.000 The amount of fake news crammed into this.

00:33:21.000 They're desperate, man.

00:33:22.000 That I can definitely agree with.

00:33:24.000 The thing about this is that they're trying to conflate general FBI activity.

00:33:31.000 It's an uptick.

00:33:31.000 It's a surge in FBI activity.

00:33:33.000 But you're not going to see a bunch of dudes in suits or like body armor.

00:33:37.000 It's the Federal Bureau of Investigation, not field law enforcement.

00:33:41.000 Now, I get it.

00:33:42.000 Feds can show up to, you know, I really doubt FBI is going to be at a riot doing riot control.

00:33:47.000 That's... I really... Maybe I'm wrong?

00:33:49.000 But they're trying to conflate this.

00:33:51.000 That if the federal agents... Check this out.

00:33:54.000 He'll arrest federal agents.

00:33:55.000 Okay.

00:33:56.000 Could you imagine if a suit-wearing FBI guy showed up in Philly and he, like, was walking around, like, asking questions and then the Philly police arrested him?

00:34:04.000 That's... That's nonsensical.

00:34:05.000 I agree.

00:34:06.000 What they're trying to make you imagine with these stories is that a bunch of Bordak CBP with, like, you know, riot weapons are marching around the city.

00:34:13.000 Using live ammunition.

00:34:14.000 Or, yeah, exactly.

00:34:15.000 As Ted Wheeler said, you know, in a tweet from yesterday.

00:34:18.000 I'm gonna start reading this.

00:34:19.000 Oh, goodness.

00:34:20.000 But I assure you, everybody listening, you're gonna start getting triggered by how fake this is.

00:34:25.000 I almost just stopped and I was like, I can't read this anymore.

00:34:28.000 I was like, I can't.

00:34:29.000 What is this?

00:34:29.000 This'll be fun.

00:34:30.000 You ready?

00:34:30.000 Yeah, I'm ready.

00:34:31.000 You can do it, Tim.

00:34:33.000 Should I just read through it straight or should I stop and correct them?

00:34:37.000 Stop and correct.

00:34:38.000 Alright, alright, alright.

00:34:39.000 Yeah.

00:34:39.000 After numerous reports and lawsuits in Portland regarding unbadged and un-uniformed federal officers arresting, beating, and detaining people in unmarked vehicles— Whoa, full stop.

00:34:50.000 Hold on, hold on.

00:34:51.000 The Trump administration's response is that they're going to do it even more.

00:34:56.000 Wow, that sentence.

00:34:58.000 The first like 10 words was already wrong.

00:35:03.000 But Trump did not say he's going to do it more.

00:35:06.000 Operation Legend is FBI DEA ATF.

00:35:09.000 You're not going to have DEA agents running around the streets with tear gas.

00:35:12.000 No, it has nothing to do with that.

00:35:14.000 So here we go.

00:35:15.000 First, let's break it down.

00:35:17.000 The videos of the unmarked officers, they claim, do not show anyone being beaten.

00:35:22.000 Nope.

00:35:22.000 It shows them walking up to a guy, and he puts his hands up, and they walk him to a van, and they brought him to the courthouse.

00:35:28.000 Yep.

00:35:28.000 So let's break this down.

00:35:29.000 First of all, were they unbadged?

00:35:30.000 Nope.

00:35:31.000 No!

00:35:32.000 They have badges!

00:35:33.000 They have badge numbers!

00:35:34.000 On their arms!

00:35:36.000 And it says- Look at this!

00:35:36.000 It says in big, yellow letters across their chest, POLICE.

00:35:40.000 Wait, wait, look at this.

00:35:41.000 Ununiformed.

00:35:43.000 Uh... What?

00:35:44.000 Wrong.

00:35:44.000 They're literally wearing tactical gear.

00:35:46.000 Yeah.

00:35:47.000 I think you can tell, like, when they're wearing police on their chest, and they're clearly cops.

00:35:51.000 Yeah, it says DHS on the side, and a big badge.

00:35:53.000 They have badge numbers.

00:35:54.000 Yeah!

00:35:55.000 Look at this.

00:35:56.000 Arresting.

00:35:57.000 They didn't arrest anybody.

00:35:59.000 Nope.

00:35:59.000 They were detained.

00:36:00.000 And detaining.

00:36:01.000 Arresting and detaining.

00:36:03.000 What?

00:36:05.000 You can detain somebody and then arrest somebody, fine.

00:36:07.000 But they're trying to add words to fluff it up, and beating.

00:36:09.000 No, wait, what?

00:36:10.000 This video didn't get beat.

00:36:11.000 This guy brought unmarked cars.

00:36:13.000 Now I gotta stop right here.

00:36:14.000 Look, we haven't even made it through one sentence yet.

00:36:16.000 We're not even, this is the first half of the sentence.

00:36:20.000 We can do this, Tim.

00:36:21.000 Come on, we can do this together.

00:36:23.000 Let's go.

00:36:23.000 We're not done with this one sentence.

00:36:25.000 I know.

00:36:25.000 Okay, we can do it.

00:36:26.000 We can do this, we got this.

00:36:27.000 You ready?

00:36:28.000 Have you ever seen a cop who wasn't wearing a uniform?

00:36:32.000 Oh yeah.

00:36:32.000 They're called plainclothes cops.

00:36:34.000 They're all over every city in this country.

00:36:37.000 Unmarked police vehicles?

00:36:38.000 Yeah, definitely.

00:36:39.000 I've seen them.

00:36:39.000 State troopers drive unmarked police vehicles all the time.

00:36:43.000 There's taxi cab police cars in New York City.

00:36:45.000 They're disguised.

00:36:48.000 It's really funny.

00:36:49.000 During protests in New York, you'll see a cab driving around and there's a bunch of fully decked out cops in it.

00:36:56.000 Okay, so even if they were unbadged, well that's not true, ununiformed.

00:37:02.000 Ununiformed?

00:37:04.000 What does that mean?

00:37:05.000 Where are they getting that information?

00:37:06.000 They have to say ununiformed because plain clothes isn't true.

00:37:08.000 Correct.

00:37:09.000 They were literally wearing uniforms.

00:37:10.000 And they were fully uniformed.

00:37:12.000 People would recognize that that's a thing that happens all the time.

00:37:14.000 We haven't even gotten to the sentence.

00:37:15.000 We can do it.

00:37:16.000 Trump has not responded.

00:37:18.000 He's going to do it even more.

00:37:20.000 And in more cities.

00:37:21.000 That is Operation Legend.

00:37:23.000 The team that's being deployed in Seattle is the Special Response Team.

00:37:27.000 Yeah, the Department of Homeland Security.

00:37:28.000 And that's not even the same thing as the PACT group that's in Portland.

00:37:32.000 That's a totally different operation.

00:37:34.000 Okay, let's keep going.

00:37:35.000 Take a deep breath.

00:37:36.000 You got this.

00:37:36.000 Here we go.

00:37:37.000 Saying that his federal agents are doing a fantastic job, Trump has suggested that he will also deploy agents in New York, Chicago, Philadelphia, Detroit, Baltimore, and Milwaukee to do the same.

00:37:46.000 And this is what I was saying about manipulative language, where you can like, there's like a dude taking a dump in the street and you go, what that man was doing is completely disgusting. 0.98

00:37:57.000 Now, if Adam came into my house and was acting a fool, I'd throw him out. 0.97

00:38:01.000 You're trying to make it seem like you did what that guy did. 0.99

00:38:06.000 It's a trick.

00:38:08.000 What Trump is saying about deploying agents in New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia, as I've said for a billionth time, look at this one paragraph.

00:38:14.000 Totally different law enforcement operation.

00:38:16.000 Completely different.

00:38:17.000 In one of those cities, the city prosecutor has already preemptively warned Trump's police forces what he will do if they bring the same tactics to Philadelphia.

00:38:25.000 Except Trump isn't deploying police forces.

00:38:28.000 Nope.

00:38:29.000 I guess, is the DEA considered a police agency?

00:38:33.000 I don't think so.

00:38:34.000 Maybe? I'm not exactly sure.

00:38:36.000 ATF?

00:38:36.000 Yeah, I don't know.

00:38:37.000 I mean, maybe.

00:38:38.000 Maybe.

00:38:39.000 Like, when you see CBP, ICE, and US Marshals wearing police on their chests as they're doing, you know, crowd control,

00:38:46.000 that I understand.

00:38:47.000 So maybe, that's apt.

00:38:49.000 Except, this is...

00:38:51.000 They're comparing everything to Portland.

00:38:53.000 That's the trick.

00:38:55.000 So here we go.

00:38:57.000 So here's a quote.

00:38:58.000 My dad volunteered and served in World War II to fight fascism, like most of my uncles, so we would not have an American president brutalizing and kidnapping Americans for exercising their constitutional rights and trying to make America a better place.

00:39:12.000 Which is what patriots do.

00:39:14.000 Okay, okay, okay.

00:39:14.000 No, no, he's right.

00:39:15.000 He is right.

00:39:16.000 I agree with him.

00:39:17.000 We cannot have a president brutalizing and kidnapping Americans.

00:39:22.000 If Trump was walking around snatching up kids off the street with his bare hands and beating them, I'd be upset.

00:39:27.000 Good point.

00:39:27.000 However, if rioters are showing up to a federal courthouse breaching the doors and trying to start fires, And I gotta be honest, when he says the president is doing it, if Donald Trump went down to Portland with his bare hands, started grabbing Antifa and detaining them, brutalizing I get.

00:39:47.000 Okay, nobody should be brutalized.

00:39:49.000 Detain them, subdue them, that's fine.

00:39:51.000 But even if Trump was doing it, actually I'd be really excited.

00:39:55.000 That'd be cool.

00:39:55.000 I think it'd be hilarious.

00:39:56.000 I'd be over there eating popcorn.

00:39:57.000 Trump running up to a guy, come here, and he grabs a dude.

00:40:00.000 So anyway, first of all, the president isn't doing, I get his point though, except no one's being kidnapped and no one is there exercising their constitutional rights.

00:40:10.000 Nobody who's been stopped or detained or arrested is simply exercising their constitutional rights.

00:40:15.000 Right, they're lumping all the protesters that are peaceful before the night drags on and then they start attacking all the courthouses.

00:40:21.000 They're all rioters.

00:40:22.000 They're all together. 0.99

00:40:23.000 They're all rioters.

00:40:25.000 How are they all rioters, though?

00:40:27.000 If, as I mentioned the other day, if you see a dude, and he goes, hey everybody, we're gonna go protest wealth inequality!

00:40:33.000 And then a hundred people go, yay! 1.00

00:40:35.000 And start marching behind you, and then the guy marches, they all follow him into a bank, and then once they're in the bank, he pulls out a gun and goes, any one of you motherfuckers move and I'll execute every last one of you! 1.00

00:40:46.000 Bang, bang, bang! 1.00

00:40:47.000 And everyone behind him goes, yay!

00:40:49.000 You're all bank robbers now. 0.80

00:40:51.000 All of you! 0.98

00:40:51.000 Okay, I see what you're saying. 0.98

00:40:54.000 But still, I don't necessarily agree that all the people that are across the street that were there protesting peacefully, that are still protesting peacefully, that are looking over there like, stop attacking that building.

00:41:08.000 They're not on federal property.

00:41:09.000 The ones that disperse.

00:41:11.000 Sure, yeah.

00:41:11.000 And that's why in all of these videos, when they're told to disperse and the tear gas comes, Most of them disperse.

00:41:18.000 And the people that stay fighting are the ones that are the rioters.

00:41:21.000 Exactly.

00:41:22.000 Right.

00:41:22.000 I just want to make that distinction.

00:41:24.000 Some of the people show up and they're like, you know, like the moms, for instance, right?

00:41:27.000 Right.

00:41:27.000 And then they're like, we were tear gassed.

00:41:29.000 And then you see the video of the moms stomping on the door trying to break the barricade.

00:41:32.000 Yeah, they're rioters, for sure.

00:41:34.000 So initially you see photos of them linking arms saying, stop the feds.

00:41:37.000 But when they stay and engage, even if, I'll tell you what.

00:41:41.000 Riot moms. 1.00

00:41:43.000 The reason I would say that Ted Wheeler is a rioter is because he was standing there on the federal barricade while they were attacking the building.

00:41:50.000 And the barricade.

00:41:51.000 And the barricade.

00:41:52.000 They were right next to him.

00:41:52.000 Shaking it.

00:41:53.000 You can hear them shaking it.

00:41:53.000 Trying to rock it down, yeah, yeah.

00:41:55.000 And they're told, specifically, disperse and get off the property, and Ted Wheeler doesn't.

00:41:59.000 Yep.

00:42:00.000 He's with their... Listen.

00:42:02.000 What they do is only possible if the crowd remains.

00:42:06.000 That's the fact.

00:42:08.000 If you have a team of people who are going to rob a bank, and all you do is stand outside and holler when you see police, well, I didn't rob the bank, I just used my First Amendment right to yell police.

00:42:21.000 No, you're warning, you're a lookout.

00:42:23.000 In this instance, these people that are standing there and staying when they're told to get off the property, they're providing cover.

00:42:29.000 You know what?

00:42:30.000 You're absolutely right.

00:42:30.000 If you're going to stay and be the shield, that's what they need.

00:42:33.000 They need those numbers.

00:42:34.000 They have no shield and then the feds can be like you and go and grab them

00:42:38.000 You know what you're absolutely right if you're gonna stay and be the shield that that's what they need

00:42:43.000 They don't need those numbers. I'll put it up. I'll put it a different way regarding the robbing a bank

00:42:48.000 Okay, if a dude says we're just gonna peacefully protest wealth inequality follow me

00:42:53.000 Yeah, and everyone follows him into a bank and then in the middle of the crowd

00:42:57.000 He screams everyone hit the floor and give us your money Bang, bang, bang.

00:43:01.000 And people don't move, so you can't tell who's yelling.

00:43:04.000 They're literally shielding him.

00:43:06.000 Yep.

00:43:06.000 You ever see the Thomas Crown Affair?

00:43:08.000 No.

00:43:08.000 You know that, you know that movie?

00:43:09.000 You know that movie?

00:43:10.000 Nope.

00:43:10.000 It's like, Pierce Brosnan has like a bunch of dudes dressed like him.

00:43:14.000 And they run in and like steal a painting and they're all like moving around.

00:43:16.000 So the cops don't know who, you know, which one's- Which one's which.

00:43:20.000 So, if they caught one of those guys, and he didn't have any stolen goods, and he was like, I'm just a man with a mustache and a hat and glasses, you can't get me.

00:43:28.000 No, they'd be like, no, you're an accomplice, clearly, you're under arrest.

00:43:32.000 That's what they try doing.

00:43:32.000 I am but a peaceful protester.

00:43:34.000 It's like, no, you know what you're doing when you show up wearing black. 0.92

00:43:37.000 Yeah, that's a good point.

00:43:38.000 Yeah, so they know full well, this article, this is amazing.

00:43:43.000 We've gotten through three paragraphs so far.

00:43:45.000 We haven't even read the, look at this, look how long it is.

00:43:47.000 Oh my goodness.

00:43:48.000 We're not going to go through the whole thing.

00:43:49.000 You get the point.

00:43:50.000 But I'll read a little bit.

00:43:51.000 Look at this.

00:43:52.000 Trump claims the federal intervention is needed due to the excessive violence, particularly around federal statues and monuments.

00:43:58.000 But legal experts have said the reported federal actions in Portland far exceed legal boundaries.

00:44:02.000 Right, so they're mixing up the two.

00:44:04.000 They're combining them both.

00:44:06.000 Even though what's happening in Portland is very specific.

00:44:08.000 On July 4th, they broke into the building and tried to burn it down.

00:44:12.000 I guess Andy Ngo posted this.

00:44:14.000 They're using a welding torch or something to break the chains and break the door open.

00:44:20.000 I don't know when that happened or what, but I do know in their court filing, they got sued.

00:44:24.000 And in their court filing, they said on July 4th, they broke into the courthouse.

00:44:28.000 There it is.

00:44:29.000 From then, we started saying, get off our property.

00:44:32.000 Get away. 0.73

00:44:32.000 And this is working, too. 0.73

00:44:33.000 I mean, even when he announced Operation Legend yesterday, after the press briefing that he did, I posted it on my Facebook page, which I cut a lot of people out of my life recently, and it's been wonderful.

00:44:46.000 But one person, of course, said, how can you be OK with this?

00:44:51.000 I live in Portland, and this is not helping at all.

00:44:54.000 And I'm like, did you just click?

00:44:56.000 Did you just reply before you even watched the press briefing?

00:45:00.000 Because you realize this has absolutely nothing to do with Portland.

00:45:03.000 This has everything and only to do with the violence that's happening across America.

00:45:08.000 The people that are actually being shot and killed.

00:45:10.000 That's not happening in Portland.

00:45:12.000 And I'd like to take the rare in-segment super chat to counter what that person told you.

00:45:17.000 Oh.

00:45:18.000 That's right. 0.94

00:45:18.000 You see we have a super chat from its fathead who said mr. 0.94

00:45:21.000 Pool. I live near Portland, Oregon I'm sick of the riots and insurgency people like me the

00:45:26.000 silent majority are fed up our moral obligations and justifications have been reached

00:45:30.000 Portland's mayor have betrayed the majority of Oregon a rare mid episode super chat

00:45:37.000 Thank you for that.

00:45:37.000 That's what I believe.

00:45:38.000 Most people think that enough is enough.

00:45:40.000 are saying enough. That's what I believe. Now look, most people think that enough

00:45:44.000 is enough. So stop burning everything down. I'm specifically, you know, the

00:45:49.000 point of this was to focus on the propaganda of what's going on.

00:45:51.000 Okay, yeah, yeah. But I think... But it's clear that it's working though.

00:45:54.000 So this was an exact example of someone that I've known for a long time, who lives in Portland, that believes what they're saying.

00:46:03.000 Which, I mean, we live on the other side of the country, and I'm watching, like, eyewitness videos of what's actually going on, so I know, I'm seeing it for my own eyes.

00:46:12.000 On the 20th, CNN Brian Stelter wrote an article saying something like, for some reason Sean Hannity decided that a small group of self-proclaimed anarchists was worthy of national news coverage.

00:46:25.000 Three days before this, it was reported by OPB that thousands were protesting in Portland.

00:46:33.000 So why would Brian Stelter lie and say a small group of anarchists when it was literally a thousand plus people protesting at the federal courthouse?

00:46:44.000 At this point it was, what, the 52nd day?

00:46:47.000 After the 39th day where they breached the courthouse doors?

00:46:51.000 Brian Stelter is straight up lying.

00:46:55.000 It was incredible because on the day of that article, 2,000 protesters descended upon the federal courthouse.

00:47:02.000 The day he said it was a small group, 2,000 people showed up.

00:47:05.000 Talk about, you know, I don't know how you want to describe what CNN does or what he does specifically, but I think he's someone who literally doesn't do any work.

00:47:05.000 Wow.

00:47:14.000 I think he wakes up every morning, you know, has breakfast, walks into CNN, sits down, and then looks at Twitter like for 10 seconds and goes, Why are they talking about this?

00:47:23.000 Why is Fox News talking about a group of people?

00:47:26.000 He watched one video and he sees like 10 people and he's like, there's only 10 people.

00:47:29.000 Meanwhile, everyone else is like, bro, you haven't even followed this.

00:47:33.000 Yeah.

00:47:33.000 And then he comes, this is what he does.

00:47:35.000 And then he invites on the same people to all sit in a big circle where they pat each other on the back.

00:47:40.000 We're family friendly.

00:47:40.000 The echo chamber.

00:47:42.000 I think he knows what he's doing.

00:47:42.000 Yeah.

00:47:43.000 I think he's lying on purpose.

00:47:45.000 I really do.

00:47:46.000 They all are.

00:47:46.000 Absolutely.

00:47:47.000 Yeah.

00:47:48.000 They all have an agenda, and it's just, it's one, it's very simple, to get Trump out of office.

00:47:53.000 Because he is in the way of their whole plan.

00:47:56.000 I wonder why it is that, you know, CNN literally employs a Fox News review show.

00:48:02.000 Like, literally the show, Reliable Sources, I would say, is just basically, you ever see Mystery Science Theater?

00:48:09.000 Yeah.

00:48:09.000 Where it's like, you're watching the movie and there's the three little guys that comment on it?

00:48:13.000 It's like, imagine if you were watching Fox News and Brian Stelter and Oliver Darcy were sitting in the front row just complaining about it the whole time.

00:48:13.000 I love that show.

00:48:19.000 That's literally what CNN's reliable sources is.

00:48:22.000 There's one more thing I wanted to add on this, too, before we move on or anything like that.

00:48:22.000 Yeah.

00:48:26.000 Check it out.

00:48:27.000 In the interview, he was asked, this prosecutor, do we need clearer laws and guidelines around what federal law enforcement officials can and cannot do when they're in a city jurisdiction?

00:48:36.000 And the prosecutor said, No.

00:48:39.000 What?

00:48:41.000 No, I actually think the law is adequate.

00:48:43.000 Bye-bye.

00:48:43.000 Okay, we're done.

00:48:44.000 Your statement was irrelevant.

00:48:46.000 Everything you wrote was fake news, and we're done.

00:48:48.000 So, and he admits it.

00:48:49.000 In the middle of the interview.

00:48:49.000 No.

00:48:50.000 They use manipulative tactics to justify their fake complaints.

00:48:54.000 Yep.

00:48:55.000 So then he says, what's not adequate is our president who doesn't really care what the law is.

00:48:59.000 And he doesn't really care what the truth is.

00:49:01.000 He's perfectly willing to behave like his heroes in tyrannical countries.

00:49:05.000 Look, this has nothing to do with... He's willing to act like Putin.

00:49:07.000 What does this have to do with the law, you were asked, dude?

00:49:11.000 He's willing to act like some Argentinian dictator.

00:49:13.000 He likes it, he likes the image, blah blah blah.

00:49:16.000 Here's the reality.

00:49:17.000 He's talking about deploying 150 federal law enforcement officers to Chicago.

00:49:21.000 200.

00:49:22.000 Well, he says 150.

00:49:23.000 Yeah, well, I'm correcting him.

00:49:24.000 It's fake news.

00:49:25.000 Fake news, baby.

00:49:26.000 The police force in Chicago is over 12,000 people.

00:49:29.000 He's talking about deploying maybe the equivalent of 1% of their ordinary active police force.

00:49:34.000 This is fluff.

00:49:35.000 Okay.

00:49:36.000 If it's fluff, why are you acting like it's some egregious violation of civil rights?

00:49:42.000 If you're arguing he's sending in a microscopic group of people that's irrelevant to what's going on, then certainly Trump is not violating anyone's rights.

00:49:50.000 It's all so fake, man.

00:49:52.000 This is politics.

00:49:52.000 It has nothing to do with actual law enforcement.

00:49:54.000 It's a diversion of tax funds to try and bolster a campaign that is close to defunct.

00:49:59.000 It's just the worst kind of deception.

00:50:01.000 Division and hate.

00:50:02.000 And we all know what happens to haters.

00:50:04.000 Which is they lose.

00:50:05.000 It sounds like they're talking about themselves there.

00:50:07.000 I know, it's all they do.

00:50:09.000 Like so, it's so obvious that it's literally them.

00:50:12.000 I'm imagining.

00:50:13.000 They're the ones doing exactly that.

00:50:15.000 I'm imagining like there's like Democrat consultants and they run in.

00:50:19.000 Yeah.

00:50:19.000 And they're like, is the guy sweating?

00:50:20.000 And he goes, Nancy, check.

00:50:22.000 Chuck! 0.91

00:50:23.000 People hate us.

00:50:25.000 And they're like, really?

00:50:26.000 No, they don't.

00:50:27.000 No, no, no.

00:50:28.000 Call the news and just tell them that they love us.

00:50:30.000 No, he gives the papers to Schumer and he goes through it and he goes, he takes his glasses down and he goes, they do hate us.

00:50:37.000 We do.

00:50:38.000 And they're like, change every instance of the word Democrat to Trump and send it to the press.

00:50:44.000 Yeah.

00:50:44.000 And then it's like, everything just changes.

00:50:45.000 Like Democrats violate rights.

00:50:48.000 Trump violates rights.

00:50:49.000 Democrats try to cheat an election.

00:50:51.000 Trump tries to cheat an election.

00:50:54.000 Cheat.

00:50:54.000 In election.

00:50:55.000 Thank you.

00:50:56.000 That was a great episode.

00:50:57.000 That was so much fun.

00:50:58.000 And MSNBC says it was just a mug scraping on a desk.

00:51:01.000 They're lying!

00:51:02.000 The scandal of a century.

00:51:04.000 The man farted on TV.

00:51:05.000 And so did Joe Biden.

00:51:07.000 That was a great episode.

00:51:09.000 That was so much fun.

00:51:10.000 If the media can't be honest about a fart, what else are they lying to us about?

00:51:14.000 Good question.

00:51:15.000 If I fart and it's loud enough that you can hear, I will own it.

00:51:20.000 You gotta be proud about that.

00:51:20.000 I am.

00:51:21.000 I am.

00:51:22.000 I'm proud of it.

00:51:23.000 You know what I think happened with Swallowell in that?

00:51:27.000 What?

00:51:29.000 He's in the correctional building where it's a big open space.

00:51:32.000 What I think actually happened is it echoed through the room.

00:51:32.000 Yeah.

00:51:35.000 No, I'm not kidding.

00:51:36.000 No, you're right.

00:51:38.000 So I've been there several times, if you've ever been to the Senate building.

00:51:41.000 I forgot which one it is.

00:51:43.000 It's like, when people are doing interviews, it echoes like crazy, and they do it all the time.

00:51:47.000 So he's miked on his lapel.

00:51:49.000 He's talking, the fart bounced off of the back of the walls, redirected to the wall in front of him, and then back to the microphone on his lapel.

00:51:58.000 The best part is that he stops talking, and you see him clench for a second, like, and then he continues.

00:52:05.000 It's like, oh man, that's funny.

00:52:07.000 He like goes up, he goes, cheat, an election.

00:52:10.000 He goes, cheat, an election.

00:52:10.000 Yep.

00:52:13.000 He goes up, you see him do it.

00:52:15.000 I know, it does.

00:52:16.000 There's only one solution.

00:52:17.000 There's only one solution.

00:52:18.000 Smashing the like button?

00:52:19.000 Disbanding.

00:52:20.000 Oh, okay.

00:52:21.000 Yeah.

00:52:22.000 Oh, yeah.

00:52:23.000 Okay.

00:52:24.000 I was gonna say, ladies and gentlemen, it is time to disband the Democratic Party.

00:52:30.000 We must remove every name, image and political group that has engaged in the atrocity of slavery.

00:52:38.000 That's right.

00:52:39.000 Starting with the Democratic Party.

00:52:41.000 They're saying that they want to bring all the statues down because, you know, the Confederate flag, because it reminds them of slavery.

00:52:47.000 Well, you know what?

00:52:48.000 On that note, why don't you go ahead and lead us in?

00:52:51.000 From ABC News, GOP member introduces resolution banning the Democratic Party.

00:52:59.000 As funny as this is.

00:53:00.000 Adam comes to me and he's like, did you hear the Republicans are trying to ban the Democratic Party?

00:53:04.000 And I was like, what? 0.99

00:53:05.000 Shut up. 0.99

00:53:06.000 Oh, what? 1.00

00:53:06.000 New Babylon Bee, huh? 1.00

00:53:07.000 Funny, funny.

00:53:08.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:53:09.000 Adam's like, no, no, I mean it.

00:53:11.000 There's a couple guys that are trying to ban the Democratic Party.

00:53:15.000 And I was like, what?

00:53:16.000 And I was like, oh, yeah.

00:53:16.000 Well, hold on.

00:53:18.000 Adam, you explained it to me.

00:53:20.000 Because the Democrats were the party of slavery, Jim Crow, and the Klan, I went, oh, I agree. 0.99

00:53:26.000 Ban them.

00:53:27.000 I'm kidding.

00:53:28.000 It's funny.

00:53:30.000 You get the point they're making.

00:53:33.000 They literally drafted a resolution to ban the Democratic Party.

00:53:36.000 Of course it's not going to happen, but could you imagine what would happen if the Republicans controlled the House, the Senate, and the executive branch?

00:53:45.000 And the Supreme Court?

00:53:46.000 I bet the riots would stop.

00:53:48.000 Um, maybe.

00:53:50.000 No, I don't know.

00:53:51.000 Maybe.

00:53:51.000 Yeah, probably.

00:53:53.000 But there was rioting under Obama.

00:53:56.000 Like, all of the Black Lives Matter stuff started under Obama.

00:53:59.000 Yes, they did.

00:54:00.000 Yeah.

00:54:00.000 And that's him.

00:54:01.000 That's him and Joe Biden.

00:54:02.000 That's the craziest thing about all these riots.

00:54:04.000 It's like, Joe Biden, you were, you were in office and this is going on.

00:54:07.000 You're not going to solve the problem.

00:54:08.000 You're going to make it worse.

00:54:09.000 It's gotten worse and worse.

00:54:10.000 So why should we think you're going to do it?

00:54:12.000 You know?

00:54:12.000 Yeah.

00:54:13.000 Everyone likes to say, this is Biden.

00:54:15.000 This is going to be Biden's America.

00:54:16.000 No, Trump is in charge right now.

00:54:18.000 This is Trump's America.

00:54:19.000 And it's like, no, no, no, no.

00:54:20.000 This started under Obama and Biden's administration.

00:54:23.000 And Trump is deploying federal law enforcement to stop it.

00:54:26.000 Yeah, and he's making laws and executive orders that are reversing a lot of the things that they've done.

00:54:32.000 Well, let's read this real quick.

00:54:33.000 All right, so from ABC they say, U.S.

00:54:35.000 Rep.

00:54:35.000 Louie Gohmert introduced a resolution to ban any political party that has been supportive of slavery, which he says includes the Democratic Party.

00:54:44.000 The Texas Republican also calls for House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to remove any items that symbolize or mention any political party that supported slavery or the Confederacy.

00:54:54.000 As outlined in the resolution, a great portion of the history of the Democratic Party is filled with racism and hatred.

00:55:01.000 Since people are demanding we rid ourselves of the entity's symbols and reminders of the repugnant aspects of our past, then the time has come for Democrats to acknowledge their party's loathsome and bigoted past, and consider changing their party name to something that isn't so blatantly and offensively tied to slavery, Jim Crow, discrimination, and the Klan, Gohmert said in a statement.

00:55:21.000 He's right.

00:55:21.000 He is?

00:55:22.000 If they're saying ban the flag, the confederate flag that's being banned is the battle flag.

00:55:25.000 It's not even the actual flag of the confederacy.

00:55:29.000 It was the battle flag. 0.66

00:55:32.000 So if they're saying take that down because the confederates were losers, the statues have to go, well, okay.

00:55:40.000 The politicians who claim to be Democrats, well, they're still elected officials, but the name should go, right?

00:55:46.000 You know, I read into, I was reading an article about when the statues all went up, and it was after they lost.

00:55:53.000 Oh, way after.

00:55:54.000 Yeah, way after.

00:55:55.000 What was it?

00:55:56.000 What was like the Daughters of the Confederacy or something? 0.82

00:55:57.000 Yeah, something like that.

00:55:59.000 So a lot of it was to try to repair the ties from the South to the North.

00:56:04.000 It was the Union saying, look, you lost.

00:56:08.000 Put up some statues so you can at least be proud of... I'm not saying be proud of the slavery part.

00:56:18.000 Because that's what everyone wants to jump to.

00:56:19.000 They're like, oh, well, that's what it's about.

00:56:21.000 They miss having their slaves.

00:56:23.000 And it's like, no, no, they don't.

00:56:26.000 They like we talked about it.

00:56:28.000 Most people didn't even want to be in this, you know, the war.

00:56:31.000 You know, they thought that it wasn't even going to be a thing.

00:56:33.000 I don't think like you can trace back the tensions.

00:56:38.000 All the way back to the Civil War.

00:56:39.000 I mean, even before it.

00:56:41.000 It's kind of crazy.

00:56:42.000 I was looking at some congressional seats and the history, and it's a weird thing that happened right around the time of the Civil War, it became a two-party system.

00:56:50.000 And it was very much so based around slavery, with the Republican Party being like, no.

00:56:56.000 It's time to end it.

00:56:57.000 And the Democrats being like, how dare you?

00:57:00.000 And throughout the past hundred plus years, that animosity still existed.

00:57:08.000 That split, that divide.

00:57:10.000 For a long time, the Democrats were very, very, very racist.

00:57:14.000 Absolutely.

00:57:15.000 And they still are, bro.

00:57:17.000 Right, right.

00:57:17.000 So what I was gonna say is, they claim the Great Switch happened, which is not true.

00:57:22.000 It's way more complicated to say something like that, but that's not the case.

00:57:25.000 And I'm gonna tell you right now, the Democrats have never been more racist in my opinion.

00:57:29.000 When they come out and straight up say the things they've been saying, woke, you know, the intersectionalism, it's hardcore white supremacy to claim that white people invented scheduling.

00:57:41.000 Hard work.

00:57:42.000 Right!

00:57:42.000 Exactly.

00:57:44.000 To claim that white culture, like hard work is white culture, is insanely white supremacist. 0.73

00:57:49.000 Agreed.

00:57:50.000 There's a comedy sketch going around from Ryan Long.

00:57:54.000 Hilarious.

00:57:55.000 Yeah, it's amazing.

00:57:56.000 He's got millions of views by now.

00:57:58.000 But it's two guys who are best friends, and one's woke and one's racist, and it turns out they agree on almost everything.

00:58:03.000 Everything?

00:58:04.000 Almost everything.

00:58:05.000 What, the very end?

00:58:06.000 Yeah, the very end. 1.00

00:58:07.000 That white people are the root of all evil, he says. 1.00

00:58:09.000 So the point is clear. 1.00

00:58:12.000 If the Democrats are embracing now intersectionalism, which is, in my opinion, overtly white supremacist, white supremacist with guilty consciences.

00:58:21.000 Basically, yeah.

00:58:22.000 Then they've not changed at all.

00:58:24.000 The only thing they're doing now is instead of fighting against minorities, they're claiming to represent them. 0.98

00:58:29.000 And then it's like, you got to hand it to a man.

00:58:32.000 It's clever.

00:58:33.000 If you want to sabotage somebody, let me tell you a story.

00:58:36.000 How would you guys like to hear a story?

00:58:38.000 I do.

00:58:38.000 I do, I do, I do.

00:58:39.000 I want to hear a story.

00:58:40.000 Let me tell you a story of one of the cleverest murders I've ever heard about.

00:58:44.000 Oh my.

00:58:45.000 So there was a story based in Illinois about a man who had gotten away with murder several times.

00:58:51.000 Okay.

00:58:51.000 And you know how he did it?

00:58:53.000 I don't.

00:58:54.000 He didn't go up to the people he hated and murder them because people would have noticed either a fight broke out or he went missing.

00:59:01.000 Oh, he was very smart.

00:59:02.000 You see, what he would do is he would find a bar near a body of water.

00:59:06.000 He would invite his rival for a drink where he was going to apologize.

00:59:11.000 You get the individual very, very drunk, and then they would walk out of the bar towards the body of water, and he would go right into the water.

00:59:18.000 And then he would call for help.

00:59:19.000 Help, please!

00:59:20.000 Help! 0.98

00:59:20.000 And the guy, blackout drunk, falls in the water and drowns. 0.98

00:59:24.000 And then once the people come, he's screaming for help, but he's the one who called for help.

00:59:28.000 He certainly didn't do anything wrong.

00:59:30.000 My friend and I got really drunk and he fell in.

00:59:32.000 Oh no, I need help.

00:59:34.000 And it was only after apparently some cop noticed that a bunch of these stories had popped up about a guy who was calling for help when his friends were drowning and he put two and two together and was like, wait a minute.

00:59:44.000 It turns out he had fights with these people.

00:59:47.000 So the reason I bring this up is this dude learned a very clever way to get away with committing a crime was to feign being friends with the person and then sabotage them.

00:59:55.000 I see what you're doing.

00:59:56.000 You're talking about the Democrats right now.

00:59:58.000 That's right.

00:59:59.000 They started pretending like they're the good guys.

01:00:01.000 Listen to us.

01:00:02.000 We'll do all the good things for you.

01:00:03.000 And they did a bunch of bad things.

01:00:05.000 And so Chicago, there's no better example than Chicago.

01:00:08.000 You're right.

01:00:09.000 That's true.

01:00:10.000 Chicago has been under Democrat rule for what, like 80 years or something?

01:00:12.000 A long time, yeah.

01:00:13.000 And it has some of the worst segregation, some of the worst violent crime, gang activity.

01:00:18.000 They've solved nothing.

01:00:19.000 At the very least, we can say they are completely incapable of governing a city, let alone anything else.

01:00:26.000 Yeah, they straight up took all low-income housing from the entire north side of the city and just bulldozed it all, and just forced everyone to go fend for themselves on the south side of Chicago.

01:00:37.000 And then what happened on the south side of Chicago?

01:00:40.000 What did we just find out like a month ago?

01:00:42.000 Well, so the area I grew up in, I was looking at Google Maps, and I was trying to show, like, here's the area, and here's, like, the project housing.

01:00:51.000 And I noticed the very strange thing on Google Maps, there was nothing but fields.

01:00:54.000 Fields surrounded by fences, and signs saying private property, you know, no entry.

01:01:00.000 And then I went, you can go back in time to earlier years, and I went back about nine years, and all of a sudden, all of the project houses were back.

01:01:06.000 The city literally razed the entire project on the south side by my house.

01:01:12.000 Just wiped it all out.

01:01:13.000 Yeah, and I've looked into that kind of thing.

01:01:17.000 So there was lots of gang violence in Chicago.

01:01:20.000 There still is a lot of gang violence in Chicago.

01:01:22.000 And a lot of the reason why it's getting worse, or it was getting a lot worse, I mean, now it's obvious reasons, but it's because they were pushing everyone together.

01:01:31.000 Like all the gangs from the north side got pushed down to the south side, and now they're getting rid of more housing projects, so people are getting more and more condensed on top of each other, fighting each other and killing each other.

01:01:42.000 I welcome Donald Trump sending the feds into Chicago.

01:01:44.000 Me too.

01:01:44.000 To be fair, I don't live there anymore for these reasons.

01:01:48.000 But Trump said some FBI DEA ATF like ATF especially men on the south side with the gun crime.

01:01:55.000 Yeah, this is what I was saying before like we mentioned this the other day if I went out and I saw, you know, the CBP guys with the tactical gear I'd be like, whoa crazy.

01:02:04.000 And it's happened before.

01:02:05.000 I've seen that in Chicago where it's like a bunch of cops come out and like SWAT.

01:02:08.000 And then we call friends like, whoa, what happened?

01:02:10.000 Did you see the police?

01:02:10.000 That's crazy.

01:02:11.000 You want to get some nachos from 7-Eleven?

01:02:13.000 Yeah, right.

01:02:14.000 Like, nobody cares because we're not going around smashing windows and starting fires.

01:02:19.000 And when I was in Ferguson during the riots, When we were leaving, the National Guard was staging, like, a few blocks away.

01:02:26.000 And we walked up and saw some National Guard, and we were like, how's it going, everybody?

01:02:28.000 And they were like, hey, what's up?

01:02:29.000 And we're like, what's going on?

01:02:30.000 And we just chatted for a little bit, because they're people.

01:02:33.000 And they were like, yeah, they're worried, you know, if things really got out of hand, you know, we'll be here trying to keep things calm.

01:02:37.000 We just want people to be safe.

01:02:38.000 And I'm like, I hear you.

01:02:39.000 And we talked about the nuances of a riot, and how people protest, and how it escalates.

01:02:43.000 And we basically agreed on a lot of things.

01:02:45.000 They were cool dudes.

01:02:46.000 I also talked to some cops, and they were saying, like, basically the same things.

01:02:49.000 Now, I'll tell you what, though, I saw some, I saw cops do some BS in Ferguson.

01:02:55.000 Yeah.

01:02:55.000 Like walking up for no reason and chucking a flashbang at people just doing literally nothing.

01:03:00.000 And it sparked a riot.

01:03:02.000 I've seen that kind of stuff happen.

01:03:03.000 Right.

01:03:04.000 So, I mean, we've discussed it.

01:03:07.000 Are there bad cops?

01:03:08.000 Yeah.

01:03:09.000 Yes, there are.

01:03:10.000 Right.

01:03:11.000 Yeah.

01:03:12.000 I mean, okay.

01:03:13.000 Are there bad people?

01:03:14.000 Yeah.

01:03:15.000 Are there racists in the world?

01:03:16.000 Yeah.

01:03:17.000 The real issue is that there are bad people.

01:03:19.000 Period.

01:03:20.000 Thank you.

01:03:21.000 And the issue is, when it comes to police, police should be held to a certain standard.

01:03:26.000 You know, what I mean by that is, if they're the enforcers of the law, then we need to make sure we don't have, like, we need a set of standards so that we don't have bad people who gain that power.

01:03:34.000 It's gonna happen.

01:03:36.000 And that's what we gotta be very careful of.

01:03:37.000 That's true.

01:03:38.000 Because then they'll start bringing in their buddies, they'll start infecting, you know, certain, you know, like Chicago is so corrupt, man.

01:03:44.000 Yeah, it gets bad.

01:03:46.000 So anyway, we're supposed to be talking about banning the Democratic Party.

01:03:49.000 But to bring it back to Chicago, there's so much corruption in Chicago.

01:03:54.000 There was a video years ago of a bunch of off-duty cops beating up a waitress.

01:03:59.000 There was a cop who grabbed a meter made by the throat and slammed it up against the wall because she gave the cop a ticket for illegally parking. 0.98

01:04:05.000 It's messed up. 0.97

01:04:06.000 It's a dirty city, man. 0.96

01:04:07.000 It is. 0.86

01:04:08.000 And I feel bad for the cops.

01:04:10.000 The good cops.

01:04:11.000 Or the rookie cops who are like, I want to be a cop, man.

01:04:13.000 I want to do the right thing.

01:04:14.000 And then they get in and you've got... Do you know the story of John Burge?

01:04:18.000 No, I don't know.

01:04:19.000 It sounds familiar.

01:04:19.000 I'll just be very careful, but Google it.

01:04:21.000 This dude was accused of electrocuting people into forced confessions.

01:04:25.000 Whoa.

01:04:25.000 Chicago is a very place.

01:04:27.000 Again, a democratic city.

01:04:29.000 For like a century.

01:04:30.000 For almost a century.

01:04:32.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:04:33.000 So that's why it's like, I think, you know, I've talked about this before.

01:04:35.000 My bias against the Democrats is probably somewhat part of this, where I grew up in a city where Republicans were not a factor.

01:04:41.000 Yeah.

01:04:41.000 where it was like the Republicans did things that didn't affect me.

01:04:45.000 They'd talk about pro-life and flat tax or whatever and I'd be like, I don't know.

01:04:49.000 And the war stuff, definitely I was like, oh these neocons, rrrr.

01:04:53.000 And then you have the Democrats in Chicago that just ran everything like it was a wasteland.

01:04:57.000 It was just awful.

01:05:00.000 And so I've been personally betrayed by these politicians.

01:05:04.000 They've promised things.

01:05:05.000 I'm not going to get into specific details, but there were certain instances where we were made promises by the city in exchange for fundraising and work, and then they just basically, figuratively, knifed us in the back.

01:05:16.000 And so I'm like, I hate this place.

01:05:18.000 It's crooked. 0.99

01:05:18.000 It's corrupt. 0.99

01:05:19.000 The violence is out of hand.

01:05:20.000 I'm done with this.

01:05:21.000 So, you know what, man?

01:05:24.000 You reap what you sow.

01:05:25.000 Louie Gohmert has proposed this bill, and I don't believe it specifically targets the Democratic Party.

01:05:31.000 I believe it just targets the idea of racist parties.

01:05:35.000 Yeah, well, or the idea that they can just apply this blanket racist, you know, statement on all these different things, you know, like all the statues and all the Whatever else they're claiming is racist nowadays.

01:05:51.000 It doesn't work.

01:05:52.000 There's a point where they're gonna be like, oh wait a minute, this is now coming back to bite us.

01:05:57.000 And we should, you know, cancel that.

01:06:00.000 Well, if the Republicans sweep the House and the Senate, the first thing they can do is say, in honor of intersectionalism, we think we should take down any symbol representing slavery.

01:06:12.000 And the first thing on that list is the Democratic Party.

01:06:14.000 Boom.

01:06:16.000 You reap what you sow.

01:06:17.000 And I think it's because the Democrats have become... I think it's not so much the Democrats.

01:06:22.000 For a long time, our political class has been infected by corrupt crony establishment.

01:06:29.000 They've sold us out to major international interests, corporations, offshore money.

01:06:35.000 And now it's really difficult to figure out how to solve the problem.

01:06:38.000 Well, I do believe Trump is trying.

01:06:41.000 Look, I do think he's an outsider.

01:06:43.000 I think he, you know, again, I can say it a million times, character defects.

01:06:47.000 But you look at the guy and he's very clearly not part of whatever it is these people were doing.

01:06:52.000 No, and he has a degree in economics.

01:06:56.000 He can see the money side that's leaving America, that's making us weaker, slowly but surely.

01:07:04.000 But it's happening.

01:07:04.000 It's not even about that?

01:07:05.000 I mean, it is about that.

01:07:07.000 My point is specifically, in Trump's mind, he wants America to be the best.

01:07:12.000 Yeah.

01:07:13.000 Anything.

01:07:13.000 of our establishment political class, they want to make money at the expense of literally

01:07:18.000 anybody to get it.

01:07:20.000 And so Trump has been essentially purging the Republican Party.

01:07:26.000 So you had these two big populists, you had Bernie and you had Trump.

01:07:29.000 Trump won.

01:07:30.000 Yep.

01:07:31.000 He wasn't supposed to win, but he did.

01:07:33.000 Trump was able to shut down the establishment on the Republican side and win.

01:07:38.000 And then we saw a wave of Republicans retiring.

01:07:41.000 These establishment dudes were backing away.

01:07:43.000 Yep.

01:07:44.000 And that was a vulnerability for the right-wing populists because it opened up the door for Democrats to try and take some of these seats.

01:07:49.000 But now we're starting to see more populist, legit Republicans.

01:07:54.000 People like Sean Parnell, for instance.

01:07:55.000 Sean Parnell is the first one that popped in my head.

01:07:56.000 Exactly.

01:07:56.000 Seems like a legit dude.

01:07:57.000 Yep.

01:07:58.000 And on the left, you're seeing a lot of progressive, grassroots-style Democrats who are trying to primary their opponents. 0.60

01:08:06.000 Well, I certainly disagree with their politics, but there's a part of me that I'm very much like, Crooked, crooked, corrupt class that's extracting all of our resources and giving it to a foreign country. 0.94

01:08:17.000 Idealistic and kind of crazy activist. 0.97

01:08:21.000 They're both really bad and I wouldn't choose either of them if I had to, if I had a choice. 0.97

01:08:25.000 But I think the crony, corrupt class has exploited us and extracted our nation and we gotta get rid of it.

01:08:31.000 Agreed.

01:08:32.000 I'm all in favor of like, can we just vote out every incumbent, period?

01:08:35.000 That would be wonderful.

01:08:37.000 And at this point now, I really don't mean every.

01:08:40.000 Maybe 10 years ago, I was like, get rid of him.

01:08:42.000 But, you know, I like Ron Paul.

01:08:45.000 When he was in office, I disagree with a lot, a lot of what Ron Paul says.

01:08:50.000 But he was a very, very libertarian Dr. No.

01:08:53.000 You know, he's like, no, don't do it.

01:08:54.000 And same thing is true with Rand Paul.

01:08:56.000 Rand Paul recently wrote an op-ed about demilitarizing the police.

01:08:59.000 Right.

01:09:00.000 I actually disagree with how he's framed things, but I agree with him more than I disagree with him.

01:09:04.000 Okay.

01:09:05.000 But like, to look at what's going on in Portland and say, oh no, it's so evil, we must defund this.

01:09:10.000 I'm like, well, hold on, hold on.

01:09:12.000 Riot control in defense of a courthouse, in my opinion, is not like secret police blackbagging people in the middle of the night and renditioning them offshore.

01:09:21.000 Agreed.

01:09:22.000 I do believe demilitarizing the police I agree.

01:09:26.000 What does that really mean, though?

01:09:28.000 Right.

01:09:28.000 So he's talked about how they're getting, you know, it's basically what happens is you actually have military tech being hand-me-down to local departments.

01:09:36.000 And I think, I don't necessarily think that we need to just get rid of all of the stuff they have.

01:09:42.000 We definitely don't need to keep giving them tank, like, APC-style, you know, like, you know, vehicles.

01:09:49.000 But we've got great local defense.

01:09:51.000 No one's ever going to invade this country, huh?

01:09:53.000 That's a good point.

01:09:53.000 So the issue is less so that they have it and more so the constraints and the oversight.

01:09:59.000 So look, as the chaos escalates in Portland, I imagine what would happen if the feds didn't have the riot control stuff they did have?

01:10:06.000 Would the building just be burnt down and we go, no, no, you know, build it again?

01:10:10.000 Yeah.

01:10:10.000 And all the court documents that were in there would be lost.

01:10:13.000 Court cases, evidence, people's work, people's computers, emails, correspondence, just like destroyed.

01:10:18.000 Precisely.

01:10:19.000 So look, it's a tough question.

01:10:20.000 But anyway, more to the point when it comes to the political class.

01:10:24.000 I think Rand Paul's great.

01:10:26.000 I think Matt Gaetz is pretty good.

01:10:28.000 I like Tulsi, but Tulsi's basically retiring anyway.

01:10:31.000 And then you've got now, potentially, Sean Parnell could win and take a seat from a Democrat.

01:10:35.000 We'll see what happens there.

01:10:36.000 I also want to give a shout out to Billy Primpey of New Jersey.

01:10:41.000 He's got a wonderful platform, and I 100% agree with what- Isn't he for pot legalization?

01:10:45.000 Yeah, but he's a Republican that has a lot of good ideas, and he's a younger man, and that's what we need.

01:10:51.000 We need a newer, younger generation getting involved in for the future.

01:10:56.000 He's in North Jersey, I think.

01:10:57.000 Yeah, I think so, yeah.

01:10:59.000 I remember we were talking about him.

01:11:00.000 Billy Prempeh?

01:11:02.000 The 9th Congressional District.

01:11:04.000 Yeah, you guys should check him out and Sean Parnell.

01:11:07.000 Full disclosure, I've donated to Sean Parnell and Billy Prempeh, because you mentioned that.

01:11:11.000 And the reason for that is, to be honest, I donated to way more Democrats than Republicans.

01:11:16.000 And I was thinking about it, and I was like, at this point, I think it would be fair, you know, if I think these people for anti-war reasons were worth supporting, that's not very fence-sitter of me to not find someone I might think is going to do a good job on the Republican side.

01:11:29.000 And even to this day, I've given more to Democrats.

01:11:33.000 But I do think those guys are both pretty rad.

01:11:36.000 So that's what we need.

01:11:37.000 Yep, I agree.

01:11:38.000 We need to get rid of these people who got into office hoping to get a lobbyist job.

01:11:41.000 50 years ago.

01:11:42.000 Look, you know what I'll tell you?

01:11:44.000 If you've figured out how to become worth $100 million off $174,000 a year, wow!

01:11:48.000 That's amazing.

01:11:48.000 How to become worth $100 million off $174,000 a year.

01:11:52.000 Wow.

01:11:54.000 You know, that's, that's amazing.

01:11:56.000 And Trump became a billionaire off a million dollars.

01:11:58.000 Yeah.

01:11:59.000 I can, congratulations to those people in Congress who took a six figure salary

01:12:03.000 and became worth millions of dollars.

01:12:05.000 I wonder how they did that, huh?

01:12:06.000 While they're still in Congress, too.

01:12:09.000 Don't even get me started on that.

01:12:10.000 Dude, it is so busted.

01:12:12.000 Absolutely busted.

01:12:12.000 Do you see that?

01:12:13.000 I sent you, I sent Adam the Dylan Rattigan rant.

01:12:16.000 Did you watch that?

01:12:17.000 I did, yeah.

01:12:18.000 Dylan Rattigan in 2013.

01:12:20.000 That was when the video was published.

01:12:22.000 I wonder if that's when the video was actually first Oh yeah, that's a good point.

01:12:26.000 The video was from 2013, I don't know when it is actually from.

01:12:29.000 Most of you might be aware of the famous Dylan Rattigan rant on MSNBC where he rips apart Democrats and Republicans.

01:12:36.000 It's eye-opening, actually.

01:12:38.000 He says, he's super angry, and this is almost a decade ago, and he's like, they are extracting our nation through banking, through trade, through politics.

01:12:48.000 And he said it.

01:12:49.000 And that, the entire time I was watching it, especially at the end of it, I hit, you know,

01:12:54.000 it came to an end and I was just like, yeah.

01:12:58.000 Trade.

01:12:58.000 That was it.

01:12:59.000 I want Trump to be president for another four years.

01:13:02.000 I'm dead serious.

01:13:03.000 And I don't want him to be encumbered by something that isn't true, like the whole Russiagate thing.

01:13:09.000 He is an economist.

01:13:10.000 He went to school.

01:13:11.000 He has a degree in economics.

01:13:14.000 It's like, sure, OK, all of his businesses weren't fully successful, but he had so many businesses.

01:13:21.000 And if you look at his business history and you look through the 90s, that's when he kind of had a rough patch.

01:13:27.000 And he figured it out, and he turned it around.

01:13:31.000 We need that kind of leadership right now.

01:13:33.000 I'll tell you my view. 0.97

01:13:36.000 Biden is awful. 0.95

01:13:37.000 100% agree with you. 0.90

01:13:39.000 Voting for Biden is restoring the establishment crony class.

01:13:43.000 We got Biden here with us today.

01:13:44.000 Wait a minute.

01:13:45.000 Listen here, Phat. 0.74

01:13:46.000 Let me tell you. 0.90

01:13:46.000 You're a live, dog-faced pony soldier. 0.90

01:13:48.000 Thank you.

01:13:49.000 Yeah.

01:13:49.000 Here's the deal.

01:13:50.000 What was I saying?

01:13:51.000 The thing, you know.

01:13:54.000 Go.

01:13:55.000 If you vote for Biden, you are trying to restore the crony class that was extracting our country and hurting people.

01:14:02.000 Yep, exactly.

01:14:02.000 If you vote for Trump, you're getting a rather imperfect man who I believe does love this country and wants to try and fix it.

01:14:09.000 There's no doubt in my mind that he loves this country.

01:14:13.000 I know his history, his parents, his mother was an immigrant, she immigrated here from Scotland, and she had nothing.

01:14:21.000 And his grandfather came here with nothing, and they both built businesses, and look where he's at now.

01:14:26.000 Here's what I want.

01:14:27.000 I want something better than Trump.

01:14:29.000 Me too.

01:14:30.000 Right now, considering what we're looking at with Biden, I'm kind of like, oof, you know, I think I'm going to have to vote for Trump.

01:14:37.000 But I also want more than just the president.

01:14:39.000 I want Congress and the Senate.

01:14:41.000 And I don't care what party it is.

01:14:43.000 The problem right now is that the young, excited individuals on the Democrat side are like Marxists.

01:14:48.000 You're right.

01:14:49.000 And I don't mean that in the pejorative, like, you're a Marxist, you're a commie.

01:14:53.000 I mean, like, many of them are literal Marxists.

01:14:56.000 And in the true sense of the word, many of them are Democratic Socialists, members of the Democratic Socialists.

01:15:01.000 It's not true communism, Tim.

01:15:04.000 Well, arguably.

01:15:05.000 But many of them are DSA.

01:15:07.000 Many of them are socialists.

01:15:08.000 Or democratic socialists.

01:15:09.000 Basically the same thing.

01:15:10.000 And I don't want that.

01:15:11.000 None of those people want to do work for a living.

01:15:14.000 They just want to be handed stuff.

01:15:16.000 That's all I'm seeing.

01:15:17.000 Every single one of them.

01:15:18.000 They just don't want to do the work that is required to be successful in this country.

01:15:23.000 This country allows you to do whatever you want to do, but you gotta work for it.

01:15:26.000 And they don't want to work for it.

01:15:27.000 I think these people have some kind of broken worldview.

01:15:31.000 And I think it's due to... it's society in general's fault.

01:15:36.000 Now we can go back and analyze how this generation came to think the things they do.

01:15:40.000 I don't know if it's a political party's fault, but I will tell you this.

01:15:43.000 Telling a bunch of young people to wake up, go to school every day, come home, then go to high school, and then take out huge loans to go to college...

01:15:52.000 Was a huge mistake.

01:15:53.000 To be in debt for half of your life, maybe your entire life.

01:15:57.000 So I'll tell you what, this is why I'm in favor of some kind of loan forgiveness.

01:16:01.000 Because the reason many of these young people don't believe in hard work is because no matter how hard they work, they can't break that chain.

01:16:09.000 Listen man, I'll tell you a story about how much I hate college.

01:16:13.000 When I was in high school, like high school age, I didn't go to high school. 0.99

01:16:18.000 I read an article from an economist who said it's the stupidest investment possible. 0.99

01:16:21.000 if you have to. 1.00

01:16:22.000 I read an article from an economist who said, it's the stupidest investment possible. 0.99

01:16:26.000 What person in their right mind would invest $40,000 for four years only to be in debt $40,000 plus interest? 0.99

01:16:32.000 Plus interest.

01:16:33.000 You tell that to any investor and they're gonna laugh at you and say,

01:16:35.000 no, I want a positive return year over year.

01:16:37.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:16:38.000 So I said, I won't do it.

01:16:40.000 And it was the right move.

01:16:41.000 I'm unencumbered.

01:16:42.000 But I know a lot of people who were told you have to.

01:16:46.000 I know people who are like, I don't want to, but I have to.

01:16:48.000 My parents are making me and I'm like, dude, you're 18.

01:16:50.000 You're an adult.

01:16:50.000 You leave.

01:16:51.000 And they were like, you don't understand.

01:16:52.000 They'll kick me out or something like that.

01:16:53.000 I have nowhere to go.

01:16:54.000 So now they go to school.

01:16:56.000 They rack up debt.

01:16:57.000 They work really, really hard.

01:16:58.000 They get out.

01:16:58.000 They can't find work.

01:16:59.000 And in their mind, hard work has never worked for me.

01:17:03.000 That's a good point.

01:17:04.000 And so they've been indoctrinated their whole lives to believe hard work doesn't work, where I was the opposite.

01:17:09.000 I dropped out, and I said, I'm not going to go.

01:17:11.000 I'm just going to figure it out and work hard until I get it done.

01:17:14.000 And here I am.

01:17:15.000 They are trapped in this cycle where they're still, to this day, and in their mid-30s, trapped in debt they can't pay off.

01:17:22.000 That's a good point.

01:17:22.000 So you know what they do?

01:17:24.000 They say, F the system, give me the commie.

01:17:27.000 The person who's going to forgive all of my debt and break the chain, I will vote for them.

01:17:32.000 So my opinion is we need to break the chain, which means I would like to see some kind of student loan forgiveness that would freeze interest rates, like suspend interest rates.

01:17:44.000 You got to pay back the principal.

01:17:47.000 So what's happening to a lot of these people is you take out $40,000 in debt, You end up paying like $60,000 over... More than that.

01:17:53.000 Probably more, yeah.

01:17:54.000 Yeah, like a lot more.

01:17:55.000 Because you get deferments, you got COVID, people can't work, they're unemployed.

01:17:59.000 Here's what we're gonna do.

01:18:00.000 We're gonna get rid of all the interest.

01:18:02.000 You gotta pay back what you spent.

01:18:04.000 Well, the banks are gonna be like, well, we're not gonna give anyone anything.

01:18:07.000 Good.

01:18:07.000 We're not gonna make anything.

01:18:08.000 Good.

01:18:09.000 Excellent.

01:18:10.000 I agree.

01:18:10.000 I agree with you.

01:18:10.000 No more, get rid of, listen, if you can't afford to go to college, you don't go to college.

01:18:14.000 Good point.

01:18:15.000 What world is this?

01:18:16.000 I never understood this.

01:18:17.000 Where it's like, buy things you can't afford.

01:18:20.000 That's what they're saying.

01:18:21.000 That's true.

01:18:22.000 There is an absolute problem in this country with that.

01:18:24.000 You're absolutely right.

01:18:25.000 You nailed it.

01:18:25.000 And because of these guaranteed student loans, tuition is skyrocketing to ridiculous numbers.

01:18:33.000 So how about we figure out how to get young people off that chain where they can't pay off this debt because they can't make enough and it just keeps accruing.

01:18:41.000 And then for the future, we say, you're not guaranteed a loan.

01:18:45.000 Nope.

01:18:46.000 Sorry.

01:18:47.000 Then these schools are going to be like, we're losing students.

01:18:51.000 What do we do?

01:18:53.000 Lower your tuition rates.

01:18:54.000 Yes.

01:18:54.000 And then people can start working to pay off.

01:18:57.000 We also need to foster a culture of, uh, when people are young to, to build hobbies, to get involved.

01:19:02.000 Look, when I was, when I, when I was a little kid, I w I built a computer when I was eight.

01:19:06.000 I started doing, uh, um, just messing around on the computer programs going online.

01:19:12.000 I started doing, uh, game programming with like flash and stuff when I was probably 12.

01:19:17.000 Well, that's it though, right there.

01:19:18.000 You just said it.

01:19:19.000 That's the new hobby.

01:19:21.000 Is games.

01:19:22.000 Video games.

01:19:23.000 So when I was a little kid, I was having fun making my own platformer game.

01:19:26.000 Right.

01:19:26.000 I made this game where you played a dude where the whole game was trying to make it through a factory that was producing these little monsters that would try and bite you.

01:19:33.000 Fun.

01:19:34.000 And I seriously just would spend days coding and programming.

01:19:37.000 And once you get the base programming with a program like Flash, it's really easy to just drag and drop and build it.

01:19:41.000 Well, Tim, not everyone wants to learn how to code.

01:19:47.000 Yes, yes.

01:19:47.000 My point, though, is it was really easy for me to be like, why go to school?

01:19:52.000 Yeah.

01:19:53.000 I can find something and become good at it.

01:19:56.000 So when I started, you know, working on Flash and stuff like that, I figured it out.

01:20:00.000 I reverse engineered other, you know, files to figure out what made what work.

01:20:04.000 And I just did it on my own.

01:20:06.000 Well, and that's actually the key.

01:20:07.000 What do we have right here?

01:20:08.000 We have this amazing thing called the Internet.

01:20:11.000 If I want to learn anything, I've been doing all this research.

01:20:14.000 I'm not going to college to learn politics or law.

01:20:17.000 I'm reading the actual laws, and I'm seeing what they're actually doing, and I'm learning from just reading and researching myself.

01:20:25.000 Well, I'm not paying anyone for that.

01:20:27.000 I'm getting paid for that.

01:20:28.000 That's the best way to do it.

01:20:30.000 Let's be realistic about what college is doing right now.

01:20:33.000 Today, an 18-year-old is told You have to go to college to succeed.

01:20:37.000 And they say, okay, what do I do?

01:20:39.000 Take out $40,000 in debt and go to school.

01:20:41.000 And they go, okay.

01:20:43.000 Then they go to school and their teachers keep telling them that communism is the light, is the truth and the way.

01:20:48.000 And they start saying, wow, that's interesting.

01:20:50.000 Then they leave college with massive debt.

01:20:52.000 They can't pay off.

01:20:53.000 And they think, why can't I do this?

01:20:55.000 Maybe my teachers were right. 1.00

01:20:57.000 Communism is the way.

01:20:58.000 And they vote for communists.

01:21:00.000 And then that basically just destroys everything.

01:21:03.000 Look, man, it's our own fault.

01:21:04.000 And we're seeing it right now.

01:21:05.000 That's what's happening.

01:21:07.000 My theory based on this, based on what my family members told me, is very simple.

01:21:12.000 When I was told that in the boomer generation, not everybody went to college.

01:21:18.000 You didn't have to.

01:21:19.000 Because the greatest generation had high school diplomas, got jobs, and were able to feed and support their families.

01:21:25.000 So their kids grow up and some of them go to college and most of them don't.

01:21:30.000 But the ones that went to college by choice ended up making substantially more money.

01:21:36.000 The boomer generation then started to believe the reason they made more money is because they went to college.

01:21:41.000 Period.

01:21:42.000 The reality was, if you don't have to go to college to succeed, but people chose to, it meant they were passionate about what they were chasing.

01:21:50.000 Period.

01:21:51.000 That's it right there.

01:21:52.000 If you're passionate about it, you want to learn about it.

01:21:55.000 And then your passion doesn't go away after you get out of college.

01:21:59.000 You then get a job that you're passionate about.

01:22:01.000 Working hard, developing technology, and making a lot of money.

01:22:05.000 So if you were told you don't have to go to college to succeed, and everyone got jobs and they were doing well, then they noticed some people were doing really well.

01:22:14.000 And what did they see?

01:22:15.000 Oh, they went to college.

01:22:17.000 That's what got them extra money.

01:22:19.000 So they tell their kids, go to college, you'll make extra money.

01:22:21.000 No.

01:22:22.000 Be passionate about a trade, a skill, a hobby, and you will make extra money.

01:22:27.000 Hey, so this reminds me of something, and I'm just going to interject here.

01:22:31.000 But when they were figuring out that self-esteem was what kids really needed, they were looking at kids who had high self-esteem who then went on to succeed.

01:22:38.000 And they said, kids need to be told that they should have high self-esteem because this will help them succeed.

01:22:44.000 When in reality, it was exactly like it is with college.

01:22:47.000 The fact of the matter was that if you were already in possession of high self-esteem, you were going to do better in any case.

01:22:53.000 Telling kids that they needed to have high self-esteem wasn't actually going to help them.

01:22:57.000 So I see like a kind of an echo there like earlier on when kids are younger.

01:23:01.000 You know, kids need a good strong father.

01:23:04.000 Yes, but I also think stories help.

01:23:07.000 I really do believe realistic stories.

01:23:10.000 Not necessarily.

01:23:11.000 I don't know.

01:23:12.000 I think stories are part of the problem.

01:23:13.000 We've been talking about how movies Always show this this negative entity that always exists in every single story for a story to be something worthwhile There's a negative entity that you is always present.

01:23:26.000 So it almost convinces everybody that that's the way life is I think I think no with what Lydia was just saying that confidence comes from having a solid family that that gives you like I Look, I love you, child.

01:23:39.000 You have the vindication.

01:23:41.000 You have confirmation that you are loved.

01:23:45.000 And they have that.

01:23:46.000 And you get that from a solid family.

01:23:47.000 Like, I got that.

01:23:49.000 I know I'm loved.

01:23:49.000 I don't need anyone else to tell me that I need love.

01:23:53.000 I don't need to convince anyone either, because I know it.

01:23:55.000 And that's part of confidence.

01:23:57.000 We need heroes.

01:23:58.000 Sure, yeah, definitely we need heroes.

01:24:00.000 If you just tell a kid all the time, they're the best, believe in yourself, well then you get arrogance and ego, and even when they're bad, they'll just convince themselves they're good.

01:24:08.000 Okay.

01:24:10.000 What people need is to understand, if at first you don't succeed, try, try again.

01:24:15.000 They need to understand that someone will always be better than you no matter what you're doing.

01:24:19.000 It's a fact.

01:24:19.000 That's true.

01:24:20.000 Skateboarding is such a great life-building culture.

01:24:23.000 Competition.

01:24:24.000 That's the reason why we are in space right now.

01:24:28.000 It's the reason we have gotten as far as we've gotten.

01:24:31.000 There are things I can do on a skateboard as a 34-year-old, well past my skateboarding prime, that some of the best pros in the world cannot do.

01:24:39.000 That doesn't mean I'm better than them.

01:24:41.000 But at the top level of skateboarding, they don't even think they're the best.

01:24:44.000 They're like, oh, but so-and-so is way better, because they look at the other things.

01:24:47.000 The point is, you want to strive to be better than yourself.

01:24:51.000 You want to every day do better than you were doing before.

01:24:54.000 Yes, everyone is their own antagonist.

01:24:56.000 The thing I was bringing up with stories was not about heroes and villains, it was about literal heroes.

01:25:01.000 It was about being told these lessons, like, I'll defer to static shock.

01:25:06.000 Like a really awesome show I watched when I was a kid.

01:25:08.000 It had diversity in it, but it was about this kid who got superpowers and then fought every day to do the right thing and to be better and to be a hero.

01:25:16.000 And you want to be inspired.

01:25:18.000 Look, if we told stories that the hero was the guy who went around burning down buildings and smashing windows and demanding communism, he's going to look for that to get, you know, like social acceptance, to feel like he's part of, you know, he's doing right.

01:25:35.000 We want kids to believe that helping build a great society, planting trees whose shade they know they will never sit in, these are the things that make you heroic.

01:25:44.000 Helping people.

01:25:45.000 Helping provide for them.

01:25:47.000 Striving to be better than yourself.

01:25:51.000 I've often thought about this in terms of, like, raising kids.

01:25:53.000 How do you make sure that the kid doesn't become an arrogant or, like, just becomes someone who thinks they're entitled to it because they're the best?

01:26:02.000 It's not so simple to just tell them to think they're better.

01:26:05.000 It's a combination of factors to craft that into a young person.

01:26:09.000 That's true.

01:26:09.000 That's why I think heroes play a role in this, and it could be a real hero, a real person.

01:26:13.000 You read their story of like, you know, someone who fought really hard to finally be the first to do something.

01:26:20.000 Maybe they weren't allowed.

01:26:21.000 Maybe no one had done it before.

01:26:23.000 No one believed in them.

01:26:24.000 I love these stories where you have someone who everyone like mocks and belittles and makes fun of and then all of a sudden they're a billionaire who like built the biggest company.

01:26:32.000 You know, there's a lot of tech bros that are like this.

01:26:34.000 Yeah. 0.87

01:26:35.000 They were the losers in school and now they're super rich. 0.99

01:26:37.000 It was all spite. 0.99

01:26:39.000 You know?

01:26:39.000 Now, I'm not saying the spite is a good thing.

01:26:41.000 I'm saying we just have these stories that we should look up to people who overcame adversity and fought every day to be better, to build, succeed.

01:26:49.000 And that's what we want to craft into people.

01:26:50.000 Definitely.

01:26:50.000 College does not do that.

01:26:53.000 You're definitely right on that.

01:26:54.000 College does the opposite of that.

01:26:55.000 Absolutely not.

01:26:56.000 I can't believe, man, what we see from some of these kids, what they believe with school.

01:27:00.000 I'm going to graduate and I'm going to make all this money.

01:27:02.000 And then they get out and they can't even find a job.

01:27:04.000 So what do they do?

01:27:05.000 I guess I'll vote Bernie because he's going to pay my bills.

01:27:08.000 That's why when you see like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders saying straight up like, we're gonna pay your bills if you vote for us.

01:27:13.000 I'm like, well of course they'll vote for you if you try that.

01:27:15.000 Unfortunately young people don't vote.

01:27:18.000 Maybe it's better that young naive people who just want for themselves aren't voting.

01:27:24.000 They're free to if they choose to.

01:27:27.000 But it's no surprise to me that it's mostly older people that vote.

01:27:30.000 It's always been that way.

01:27:31.000 Yeah.

01:27:32.000 And even still, it's not like every younger generation feels that way, because that's not true.

01:27:37.000 I mean, I see plenty of younger generations that are conservative.

01:27:42.000 There's conservatives across all age groups.

01:27:44.000 So, you know, we see it.

01:27:47.000 I think most people in general are just uninitiated.

01:27:51.000 Like the biggest political party is didn't vote.

01:27:54.000 That was me until six months ago when I started the show and now I'm very political.

01:28:01.000 But you voted in 2008, right?

01:28:03.000 For the first and only time.

01:28:04.000 Yep, me too.

01:28:05.000 And then 2012 I felt betrayed and I was like, I'm not voting for this guy again.

01:28:08.000 Get out of here.

01:28:09.000 I'm not going to vote for Mitt Romney.

01:28:12.000 And then 2016 came around and I thought the exact same thing.

01:28:14.000 I'm not voting for Donald Trump.

01:28:16.000 I'm especially not voting for Hillary Clinton.

01:28:18.000 You know, what's funny is like, I would tell people like, I gotta be honest, I don't like Trump, but I would never like Hillary Clinton.

01:28:24.000 No way, dude. 1.00

01:28:24.000 You're nuts. 1.00

01:28:25.000 Never. 0.99

01:28:26.000 But I did say in the past, I would never vote for Donald Trump.

01:28:29.000 Someone actually super chatted earlier.

01:28:31.000 It was a smaller one, but I saw it and I was like... I said... You said in 2016, you would never vote for a Republican.

01:28:37.000 And 2017, and 2018.

01:28:40.000 But I'll tell you what changed.

01:28:42.000 At that time, Trump was drone bombing, commando raiding, and missile striking Syria.

01:28:47.000 And so I was like, of course they're doing the same thing.

01:28:49.000 Of course the same old, same old narrative.

01:28:52.000 In the past year, Trump's... After he got rid of Bolton.

01:28:56.000 After he got rid of Bolton, all of a sudden now it's like, let's leave!

01:28:59.000 And I'm like, oh, well, that changes things.

01:29:02.000 We also do see new Republicans.

01:29:02.000 Well, alright then.

01:29:05.000 At the time, we had the crony establishment types.

01:29:07.000 That's a good point.

01:29:08.000 Now we're seeing Billy Prempeh and Sean Parnell.

01:29:12.000 And Matt Gaetz.

01:29:13.000 And I don't completely agree with all of their politics, but I feel like they're genuine and honest.

01:29:17.000 That's the key right there.

01:29:18.000 Now, to be fair though, I've liked Rand Paul for a long time.

01:29:21.000 Because I've followed Ron Paul stuff, you know, 10 years ago or longer because Ron Paul was very much a meme on the internet.

01:29:21.000 Okay.

01:29:29.000 And so when I saw everyone talking about the Ron Paul love revolution and stuff, I looked into his policies and I was like, wow, I really disagree with this guy.

01:29:36.000 But I do respect him because he seems genuine.

01:29:39.000 And that's how I felt about Bernie Sanders.

01:29:41.000 In 2016.

01:29:42.000 Oh, well, right.

01:29:42.000 2015.

01:29:44.000 Yeah.

01:29:45.000 So, here's what ends up happening in 2015.

01:29:45.000 Going into the election.

01:29:48.000 There was an insurgency in establishment politics.

01:29:51.000 The populist left, Bernie Sanders, and the populist right rose.

01:29:55.000 And there are numerous articles talking about how they agreed on all these big issues.

01:30:00.000 Immigration, border control, like labor, TPP.

01:30:04.000 Trump and Bernie agreed on a lot of things, except how far left economic policy should go.

01:30:10.000 Then what happened?

01:30:11.000 Donald Trump, like a bull, kicked the door into the ivory tower and said, you ain't gonna take nothing from me.

01:30:18.000 Or America.

01:30:19.000 Or America.

01:30:20.000 And Bernie Sanders walked up, knocked on the door and says, just tell me what I need to say and who I need to agree with to get a little bit of what I want in this tower.

01:30:27.000 And so he just, tell everybody that you don't like white people. 0.99

01:30:30.000 Okay, white people, you're bad. 1.00

01:30:32.000 That's so good. 1.00

01:30:33.000 Now be for open borders.

01:30:35.000 Okay, I'm for open borders now.

01:30:37.000 Okay, we're gonna let you win now, Bernie.

01:30:39.000 Now you're a millionaire.

01:30:40.000 Congratulations.

01:30:40.000 That's what Bernie did.

01:30:41.000 Yep, it's true.

01:30:42.000 So Bernie, I guess, thinks that the path to getting what he wants is to just, like, knock on the door and cave, be rich, accept it, and then maybe the kids will take care of it. 0.87

01:30:51.000 Trump's a bull.

01:30:53.000 He just ran full speed at the door, crashed it open, and was like, and he's like rampaging around, and he's flipping tables, and he's like, get out! 0.96

01:30:59.000 Out! 0.58

01:30:59.000 Excuse me! 0.58

01:31:00.000 Get out! 0.98

01:31:01.000 But he's a smart bull, though, that's the thing.

01:31:03.000 It's like, sure, yeah, he's doing that.

01:31:05.000 I'm talking about, like, the tower being full of the cronies doing backroom deals and, like, dishing out cash.

01:31:11.000 Bernie said, tell me what you want so I can come in, and Trump went in and just started knocking tables over, and they're mad about it.

01:31:17.000 What I mean specifically is, like, when he disrupts the TPP, when he disrupts these, like, these foreign trade deals... This is a terrible deal.

01:31:23.000 Of course.

01:31:24.000 Looking into it.

01:31:25.000 All these people who had made money off of the impending collapse of our economy, shuffling over our manufacturing to foreign countries, Trump flipped their tables.

01:31:34.000 So he came in and just started stomping about.

01:31:37.000 Bernie Sanders came in and said, in 2015, Bernie goes, open borders is a Koch brothers proposal.

01:31:44.000 It's a right wing proposal.

01:31:46.000 We cannot have it.

01:31:47.000 And then they bought him his summer home.

01:31:50.000 And then they bought him a summer home.

01:31:52.000 And now he's like, we must decriminalize border crossings and we must provide health care to non-citizens. 0.99

01:31:58.000 It's like, Bernie, that's a weird flip-flop.

01:32:01.000 Yeah, it is.

01:32:01.000 And what we end up seeing on these far-left forums is that Bernie evolved on the issue, understanding the importance of open borders.

01:32:07.000 No, what really happened was that Donald Trump, the Republicans were for relaxed borders because they wanted to bring in cheap labor to suppress wages and make it cheaper for the industrialists.

01:32:18.000 Trump was like, nope!

01:32:19.000 We're gonna bring our factories back, we're gonna tariff everybody.

01:32:21.000 And we're gonna give the jobs to Americans. 0.99

01:32:23.000 And so here's what happened.

01:32:25.000 Those people ran full speed to the Democrats screaming, help, help, I'm being repressed!

01:32:29.000 And then was birthed the Never Trumpers.

01:32:31.000 That's true.

01:32:32.000 It's really funny when you see, who was it, Rick Wilson?

01:32:34.000 Who had the Confederate flag cooler?

01:32:36.000 Yeah, it was hilarious.

01:32:38.000 Oh yeah, that's right.

01:32:39.000 He was deleting those pictures, but they were already out there.

01:32:42.000 there.

01:32:43.000 Look who the Democrats have welcomed to their bosom.

01:32:46.000 These people who want to open borders have found their allies in the far left so they

01:32:49.000 can get cheap labor for their industry.

01:32:51.000 And Trump doesn't want that.

01:32:53.000 Bernie used to not want that until he decided, well, they're going to buy him a summer home.

01:32:57.000 Hey, sell some books.

01:32:59.000 Bling bling, baby. 0.89

01:33:01.000 That was old Bernie.

01:33:02.000 So that was it for me.

01:33:03.000 In 2015, I was like, hey, this Bernie guy, I like him.

01:33:06.000 No TPP.

01:33:07.000 That was a big activist push.

01:33:08.000 It was a terrible deal that was gonna give away so much of our infrastructure, manufacturing, our labor, our businesses.

01:33:15.000 Bernie was much more progressive on... A lot of Bernie's progressive policies I didn't agree with.

01:33:21.000 I thought he was a little too far off on a lot of issues, but he was very similar to what I was thinking in terms of labor rights and helping the working class, protecting our borders, immigration, stuff like that.

01:33:32.000 And then Bernie flipped. 0.96

01:33:34.000 And so I was like, okay, I guess I'm out.

01:33:38.000 Now, looking at what they've all adopted.

01:33:41.000 And I feel like the Democratic Party has become a refuge of establishment individuals who believe a bunch of different things.

01:33:49.000 So you have never-Trump-er conservatives who now are literally campaigning to help Democrats.

01:33:54.000 Yeah, it's weird.

01:33:55.000 They're like, what is it, the Lincoln Project?

01:33:57.000 The party of Lincoln!

01:33:58.000 But we're gonna make sure Democrats win!

01:34:00.000 By the way, Lincoln was a Republican.

01:34:02.000 Yep.

01:34:03.000 How does that make any sense?

01:34:04.000 Well, they claim the whole thing is about restoring the right, you know, party, the Lincoln's party.

01:34:10.000 But then they're literally just campaigning for Democratic politicians.

01:34:13.000 They're grifters.

01:34:14.000 Yep. 0.86

01:34:14.000 That's all it is. 0.86

01:34:15.000 Well, yes, but I think the real thing is that they're refugees of the establishment. 0.96

01:34:22.000 The establishment is under attack.

01:34:24.000 So you had two big establishment nations, the Democratia and Republicia, and then all the Republicans fled once Trump took over and started tearing down their crony capitalist nonsense.

01:34:36.000 So they fled to the Democrats.

01:34:37.000 Help, help, please.

01:34:38.000 Our crony institutions that were enriching us are being destroyed.

01:34:41.000 And then the crony Democrats were like, oh, you poor thing.

01:34:45.000 Come, come to our party and join us.

01:34:47.000 And what do you want us to advocate for?

01:34:49.000 Open borders?

01:34:50.000 Okay.

01:34:50.000 Yep.

01:34:51.000 Sounds like Bernie.

01:34:52.000 Yep.

01:34:53.000 Sounds like Bernie.

01:34:54.000 And there it is.

01:34:55.000 So, hey man.

01:34:57.000 Joe Biden.

01:34:59.000 Here's the deal.

01:35:00.000 I'm going to restore establishment politics.

01:35:02.000 Mark my words.

01:35:03.000 New taxes.

01:35:05.000 He actually said that.

01:35:06.000 I know.

01:35:06.000 He's like, I'm going to roll back all those terrible, like, what is it?

01:35:11.000 Tax cuts?

01:35:12.000 Tax cuts that Trump did.

01:35:14.000 It's like, wait a minute.

01:35:15.000 You're going to roll it back?

01:35:16.000 So you want America to pay more taxes?

01:35:19.000 Wait, you're leading on that?

01:35:20.000 So you know the famous line, mark my word, no new taxes?

01:35:23.000 Read my lips?

01:35:24.000 Read my lips.

01:35:24.000 Is that what it was?

01:35:25.000 Read my lips.

01:35:25.000 No new taxes.

01:35:26.000 Oh, I ruined it.

01:35:27.000 I ruined it.

01:35:28.000 Joe Biden says, read my lips.

01:35:30.000 New taxes!

01:35:32.000 Yeah.

01:35:33.000 It's not quite the same.

01:35:34.000 Wow.

01:35:34.000 I'm imagining all of the suburban middle class people being like, wait, what?

01:35:38.000 Record scratch.

01:35:39.000 I would like to give more money to the government that I'll never see used properly and have no idea where it goes.

01:35:44.000 Right.

01:35:45.000 That's a great pitch to American people.

01:35:47.000 That's terrible.

01:35:49.000 I mean, it's in line with Biden.

01:35:50.000 Come on.

01:35:52.000 Is it surprising anymore?

01:35:53.000 Nothing is surprising anymore.

01:35:55.000 Did you hear what he said about Trump?

01:35:56.000 Oh, goodness.

01:35:56.000 What?

01:35:57.000 Trump is America's first racist president. 0.99

01:35:59.000 Oh, yeah. 0.97

01:36:02.000 Oh, that's because Biden isn't president.

01:36:04.000 Well, there's definitely been racist presidents.

01:36:06.000 I mean, we've had presidents literally who own slaves.

01:36:09.000 I know.

01:36:10.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:36:10.000 Biden was very young when that was happening.

01:36:12.000 It's not his fault.

01:36:13.000 He forgot.

01:36:14.000 Yep.

01:36:14.000 Yeah.

01:36:15.000 Oh, that is so.

01:36:16.000 Oh, that's what Charlemagne was ripping him apart for.

01:36:18.000 Yep.

01:36:19.000 He was like, you were on my show saying some racist stuff.

01:36:23.000 Oh, no, I didn't.

01:36:24.000 I didn't read the article, but I saw a clip of it.

01:36:27.000 Biden says that Donald Trump is America's first racist president, and then he goes, help me be the second.

01:36:34.000 But he's not. 0.93

01:36:35.000 That's the craziest thing.

01:36:36.000 It's like, you know, they always go to that freaking Charlottesville, you know, defending good people on both sides.

01:36:43.000 It's like, go watch his speech, please.

01:36:45.000 I'm so sick of hearing about it.

01:36:46.000 Go listen to the first words out of his mouth during that speech is, Neil, they should be condemned, period.

01:36:52.000 That was the first thing he said.

01:36:54.000 I do have a bit of a progressive view on racism where, before everyone freaks out, I do think everybody has racism within them.

01:37:02.000 Is this something like Brett Weinstein talks about?

01:37:05.000 Humans... Actually, I'll give you a very simple example.

01:37:08.000 You ever notice that people who are in relationships look like each other?

01:37:12.000 Ever notice that?

01:37:13.000 It's like a trope where they'll wear similar clothes.

01:37:15.000 I've seen that it tends to be true, yes. 0.98

01:37:19.000 There was one study I read where they showed faces to people and asked them to rate them on attractiveness.

01:37:19.000 They did.

01:37:24.000 OK.

01:37:25.000 And the faces of themselves, they would rate the highest, not realizing it was their own face.

01:37:30.000 So people actually view like people feel safer around what is familiar.

01:37:34.000 So there is, I believe, an inherent racism that humans definitely contend with.

01:37:39.000 And again, Bret Weinstein talks about this, that we become smarter, we become understanding, we resist these baser instincts and understand that, you know, we can come together and be trusting of each other.

01:37:48.000 I know, but I feel like racism is considering your race superior, though.

01:37:54.000 And I feel like there's a blend.

01:37:57.000 You're blending them together when they're not necessarily the same thing.

01:38:00.000 Racism could be prejudice or discrimination based on race.

01:38:04.000 So if people are predisposed to recognize certain cultures or ideas, I think there is inherent bias.

01:38:11.000 I think it's more of like a balance thing.

01:38:14.000 But I do think that America has overcome all of these things.

01:38:17.000 I think so too.

01:38:19.000 I mean, we still have racism for sure.

01:38:20.000 Yeah, there's racists out there, no doubt. 0.93

01:38:22.000 But I do think that there's a reason why so many cultures to this day are still racist.

01:38:22.000 Right.

01:38:28.000 I believe that, you know, liberal, like, classical liberalism, the ensuring of equal rights made us realize that, you know what, it's actually about the content of your character, not the color of your skin.

01:38:40.000 Boom.

01:38:40.000 So we've kind of, like, had an ideological revolution.

01:38:43.000 Yeah, it's amazing.

01:38:43.000 Where we started to realize racism is really, really bad.

01:38:46.000 Yep.

01:38:47.000 But I think what we've seen throughout, like, it's really easy to explain, actually, like, for the longest time throughout the world, everybody was racist.

01:38:55.000 And then America pops up and certain other countries in Europe.

01:38:59.000 And we start realizing through like mostly classical liberalism, equality, unalienable rights.

01:39:06.000 And then we were like, wow, as it turns out, the content of your character matters much, much more.

01:39:09.000 And we overcame, you know, simplistic views of the world.

01:39:13.000 Maybe I'm not smart enough to articulate it like someone like Brett probably could.

01:39:17.000 Yeah.

01:39:17.000 But that's, that's, you know, that's the point I'm trying to make is that we as Americans have actually overcome all of this.

01:39:23.000 Yep, for the most part.

01:39:28.000 They're trying to bring it back.

01:39:29.000 They are, and it's very obvious now.

01:39:31.000 And that's why those, I mean, the statistics we were going over earlier, it's showing that people are fed up with this.

01:39:38.000 Stop trying to shove it down our throats that we're racist.

01:39:40.000 We're not racist.

01:39:41.000 Most people are not.

01:39:43.000 Most people don't look at the character of a person, and that's what's important.

01:39:47.000 Exactly.

01:39:47.000 Period.

01:39:48.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:39:49.000 Let's grab these super chats.

01:39:51.000 All right.

01:41:04.000 DC Pagan says, $100 for 100 episodes.

01:41:08.000 When are the beanies coming?

01:41:09.000 I need five copies of Tim's beanie.

01:41:11.000 Blessed by soy Jesus.

01:41:12.000 Yeah.

01:41:12.000 I, you know, I gotta, I gotta get on that COVID.

01:41:15.000 Yeah.

01:41:15.000 The COVID really shut down the company and then they started back up and I hit him up and I'm like, Hey, you know what, what's going on?

01:41:22.000 Can I get a dual color beanie?

01:41:24.000 And they actually have something similar to mine, but they don't have mine either.

01:41:28.000 And they're like, Oh, we can't do anything like that custom right now because of COVID.

01:41:33.000 And it's just like, no.

01:41:34.000 Oh, so eventually I'll be able to get those, because we've got to get the legit Tim Cass beanies.

01:41:40.000 All right.

01:41:42.000 Poofy says, Lids 2024.

01:41:43.000 There you go.

01:41:45.000 Okay.

01:41:46.000 Samuel Farmer says, question for Adam.

01:41:48.000 On his show, he had a problem with removing college options from inmates.

01:41:52.000 Does he support free college?

01:41:54.000 If not, why would he advocate for taxpayer-funded college for criminals when law-abiding citizens have to pay themselves?

01:42:00.000 Well, I mean, the whole the whole prison system as a whole is is a privatized institution.

01:42:06.000 So we you know, they're making money off of our tax dollars.

01:42:10.000 And the whole point of prisons is to, you know, for people to pay their their dues.

01:42:16.000 Right.

01:42:17.000 You know, it's like we're that's a that's a lot of of it's hard to really like grasp all of the, you know, the layers of what that really means.

01:42:27.000 It's like, I would gladly have some of my tax dollars go to helping people become better.

01:42:34.000 Period.

01:42:35.000 That's why.

01:42:35.000 I have no issues with having a little piece of my tax money going to helping people that have been put in a system.

01:42:46.000 The specific of that bill is they're not allowed to get grants.

01:42:49.000 So it's not even tax dollars.

01:42:50.000 They're not even allowed to get grants from different corporations or get any sort of institution to help them get there.

01:42:58.000 So it's not that our tax dollars would even pay for it.

01:43:01.000 They're not even allowed to look and search for different ways to get funding to do that.

01:43:07.000 So there's a lot about that, I guess, that I may have missed.

01:43:11.000 Even still, I want people to get better.

01:43:14.000 I want them to know that if you mess up, you're not locked in the system forever in this privatized prison system that's just a profit market.

01:43:22.000 Abolish private prisons.

01:43:24.000 Absolutely.

01:43:24.000 Shut it all down.

01:43:25.000 Yeah, privatized prisons are a terrible thing.

01:43:27.000 I want total prison reform.

01:43:29.000 Our prisons should be rehabilitative, not punitive.

01:43:34.000 So I was reading about these people who, like, the best way to end recidivism, or to reduce it, is to teach skills, survival, responsibility.

01:43:45.000 We don't do that at our prisons.

01:43:46.000 We actually harden criminals.

01:43:48.000 And that's one of Trump's, the First Step Act is about exactly that.

01:43:52.000 Yeah, trying to make it so prisoners can further themselves and come out of prison ready to tackle life instead of going back into a life of crime.

01:44:02.000 That's amazing.

01:44:03.000 We need an ideological revolution on the prison system.

01:44:06.000 I'm not saying bail reform, release all the prisoners, and do restorative justice.

01:44:09.000 None of that.

01:44:10.000 What I'm saying is, I think we've built our current prison system around just like from old ideas of putting someone in a box because then they can't hurt people.

01:44:18.000 But now we're coming to a point where we have way too many prisoners, and we have to figure out how when people commit a crime, we can help them become people who will not commit a crime.

01:44:27.000 Again, we're not doing that.

01:44:28.000 We're not doing it so well.

01:44:30.000 The bigger issue I have is that government-run prisons are often really awful.

01:44:34.000 They're really bad.

01:44:35.000 And so one of the things people mention about private prisons is that some of them can be actually a lot better.

01:44:39.000 Sure.

01:44:39.000 But then you do create perverse incentives for locking people up.

01:44:43.000 We've seen it with these juvenile halls where judges were getting paid off.

01:44:47.000 And these people are criminals, I know, and crime is going to happen.

01:44:50.000 I think we need something, some kind of prison reform.

01:44:53.000 I do.

01:44:53.000 I'm not going to pretend to know all the answers, but I don't like what we're doing now.

01:44:57.000 And so it's hard for me to pretend like I can tell you how to fix everything for sure.

01:45:01.000 I certainly think we need an ideological revolution pertaining to how we handle inmates.

01:45:05.000 This is the problem though.

01:45:07.000 Prisons are a form of medicine.

01:45:09.000 Police is a form of medicine.

01:45:11.000 Medicine is for diseases that we get.

01:45:16.000 Everyone loves to figure out and try to change what the medicine that we use to fix certain issues and that is the problem.

01:45:22.000 We have to look past that and get to the root of why everything is happening.

01:45:28.000 Why are people going to prison in the first place?

01:45:31.000 Are there always going to be bad people?

01:45:32.000 Absolutely, yes.

01:45:34.000 But is there...

01:45:36.000 Wait reasons why there people are turning to criminal act instead of just trying to further themselves Well, it depends on the crime.

01:45:44.000 There's a issue.

01:45:45.000 Well, you're absolutely right there.

01:45:47.000 You're absolutely right, but for the most part I feel like It doesn't matter There's still a reason that the crime happens.

01:45:55.000 We can try to figure out and keep changing what medicines we use for the problems of society, but I don't want to do that.

01:46:03.000 I want to focus on the problems of society.

01:46:05.000 Why are we there?

01:46:07.000 What can we do to upgrade that?

01:46:09.000 That's the key.

01:46:10.000 That's the conversation I want to keep having.

01:46:12.000 The issue is that when a lot of people talk about the cure for cancer, they don't realize that cancers are all different.

01:46:18.000 That's true.

01:46:18.000 So sometimes crime is violent murder, gang-related drug trafficking.

01:46:22.000 Sometimes it's desperation, need food, can't pay rent.

01:46:25.000 Like AOC likes to assume that all the violent crime was because people were stealing bread because she doesn't understand and she's too idealistic. 0.68

01:46:32.000 No, it was people shooting each other.

01:46:34.000 That's very different.

01:46:34.000 They're not hungry, they're just like evil.

01:46:38.000 I mean, maybe evil isn't the right word for a lot of these people who have no idea what they're doing and don't care.

01:46:43.000 Callous, maybe.

01:46:45.000 But I do think we have to at least try to figure out how to help people be better.

01:46:51.000 It's tough, though, man, to pretend like I have all the answers.

01:46:53.000 Definitely not.

01:46:54.000 Bring back better.

01:46:56.000 Buy back better.

01:46:57.000 What is it?

01:46:58.000 Buy back?

01:46:58.000 Buy back better?

01:46:59.000 I don't know what he says.

01:47:01.000 No, it's bring back better.

01:47:03.000 Alright, let's just go.

01:47:05.000 John Kirsch says, congrats to the three of you.

01:47:07.000 Keep on keeping on.

01:47:08.000 Appreciate it.

01:47:09.000 Thank you.

01:47:09.000 Curtis Reynolds says, I smashed it.

01:47:11.000 Thank you all for smashing the live one.

01:47:12.000 Can we break 30,000 likes for our 100th episode?

01:47:16.000 Lee P says, a dollar for every episode, except apparently I'm keeping a penny for myself.

01:47:20.000 Love your content.

01:47:21.000 Love the input from everyone.

01:47:22.000 Appreciate it.

01:47:23.000 Thank you.

01:47:23.000 A lot of big super chats today.

01:47:24.000 Thank you, everybody.

01:47:26.000 Callan Shaw says, congrats on episode 100.

01:47:28.000 I also proposed to my girl today, and she said yes.

01:47:30.000 Wow, congratulations, man.

01:47:32.000 Nice! 0.94

01:47:32.000 Congratulations. 0.94

01:47:33.000 I'm spinning the UFO for you.

01:47:36.000 Good luck with the studio relocate.

01:47:38.000 Got any suggestions where we can settle down outside of crazy DC swamp we're in now?

01:47:43.000 Northeast preferred.

01:47:44.000 I like snow.

01:47:46.000 Also, baby name ideas.

01:47:48.000 New Hampshire has a great state motto, live free or die.

01:47:51.000 Adam is a really good name, I hear.

01:47:53.000 So I'm told.

01:47:55.000 It's classic.

01:47:56.000 It's one of the best.

01:47:57.000 It's the OG name.

01:47:58.000 It's one of the best names.

01:47:59.000 It's like the first.

01:48:01.000 It's an OG name.

01:48:03.000 It being the first, I don't agree with that.

01:48:05.000 Biblically.

01:48:06.000 It goes back.

01:48:10.000 Yeah.

01:48:11.000 John LXC, I thank you for the super chat, but I can't read that.

01:48:14.000 YouTube will ban us.

01:48:16.000 Oh.

01:48:16.000 Yep.

01:48:17.000 Sovereign Psych says, congrats on episode 100.

01:48:19.000 Fantastic episodes.

01:48:20.000 Adam, I sent you a message on Parler.

01:48:22.000 If you could check it out when you have some time, spin the UFO for the people.

01:48:26.000 I will spin it for the people!

01:48:27.000 And I'll check it out.

01:48:29.000 Gareth Green says, once China had proto-liberal government under the early Western Han Dynasty.

01:48:34.000 Look it up.

01:48:35.000 Emperor Wen and his wife, Empress Dou, governed by the Huang Lao philosophy.

01:48:40.000 Their grandson, Emperor Wu, ruined everything.

01:48:43.000 Look him up!

01:48:44.000 That's a shame.

01:48:45.000 That's a bummer, man.

01:48:46.000 And now they're banning Christianity and Jesus.

01:48:50.000 Because they want people to worship Mao or whatever, right?

01:48:51.000 Yeah, yeah, exactly.

01:48:52.000 Man.

01:48:53.000 China's scary. 0.99

01:48:54.000 Adam Schmidt, thank you for that super chat.

01:48:55.000 Thank you.

01:48:57.000 Alright, let's see what we got.

01:48:58.000 Curtin says, Found you guys a week ago.

01:49:00.000 Great show.

01:49:01.000 I live near Seattle and feds are coming because a reporter overheard rioters tell the group to save their energy for Saturday.

01:49:06.000 Also, police say what is being reported as fireworks are closer to IEDs.

01:49:11.000 Spinning the UFO.

01:49:12.000 I'll spin it!

01:49:13.000 And they, I have seen them use that.

01:49:14.000 They actually make explosives with like two liter bottles.

01:49:17.000 Those are more of like their own version of flashbangs.

01:49:20.000 They'll create pressure chemical bombs that are really loud and boom!

01:49:24.000 It's really easy.

01:49:25.000 Like you'll see kids do it on YouTube.

01:49:27.000 They put stuff in a bottle, they cap it, they tie it up so that the pressure builds up and then bang!

01:49:31.000 Yeah.

01:49:31.000 I've seen, they were throwing them in Berkeley.

01:49:33.000 It's messed up.

01:49:35.000 DC Pagan says, 100.

01:49:36.000 Oh, I read that one.

01:49:37.000 DJ Zeno says, hey guys, real quick.

01:49:40.000 You three and my girlfriend are the only people on this planet I feel understands the world.

01:49:46.000 My good friend of nearly four years publicly disowned me for posting a video of the riots.

01:49:49.000 The mind virus is real.

01:49:51.000 Yes, it is.

01:49:52.000 Let's see.

01:49:53.000 Gareth Green says this is a sequel, so let me try and find... I'm not sure what the first super chat... I don't know if I can find it.

01:50:00.000 So I'll just read your sequel super chat.

01:50:02.000 The same Emperor Wu just so happens to be the emperor under whom China first annexed the region now known as Xinjiang, the Uyghur homeland.

01:50:15.000 Crazy stuff, man.

01:50:16.000 Yeah, it's crazy going on.

01:50:17.000 Uncle Juan says, Democrats on my Facebook are doing similar things.

01:50:22.000 They go to Portland but not downtown and post pictures of the parks and say, look at the Republican lies.

01:50:27.000 No riots here.

01:50:27.000 Then photos of people on a bench and say, those are the rioters.

01:50:31.000 I'm so scared.

01:50:32.000 Yep.

01:50:32.000 Right.

01:50:32.000 Because... I've seen it over and over again.

01:50:34.000 The actual argument is that we know they're in a small 12 block radius.

01:50:39.000 We know they're attacking the federal courthouse.

01:50:41.000 Yeah.

01:50:42.000 We're not saying that the entirety of Portland, which I think is 145 square miles or something, it's like really huge, is burning to the ground.

01:50:49.000 Someone hit me up on Twitter, like, I live in Portland and I drive around, everything's normal.

01:50:55.000 I went to the store, I don't see any riots, I don't see anything happening.

01:50:58.000 Just like in Cairo, when the entire government collapsed, the protests were only in Tahrir.

01:51:05.000 You would walk a few blocks away, you'd be at McDonald's eating a cheeseburger.

01:51:08.000 And so people, I went to Heliopolis during the revolution and I went to the mall and I got like some, it was like a kebab I guess.

01:51:15.000 Played games, I went and bought a cell phone.

01:51:16.000 Everybody was shopping like normal.

01:51:18.000 And I was talking to the dude I was with and I was like, it's really funny, you wouldn't realize a revolution is happening.

01:51:22.000 And he was like, most people just do their thing.

01:51:25.000 And then now when you look back on it, it's like the second revolution of Egypt.

01:51:29.000 The fall, you know, of Morsi or whatever.

01:51:32.000 I was there when it happened.

01:51:33.000 It was just one group of people.

01:51:35.000 It was a few thousand people in one square.

01:51:40.000 That was it.

01:51:40.000 That's all it took.

01:51:41.000 People don't realize how delicate that system is.

01:51:43.000 That's why I keep saying, like, we are dangerously close.

01:51:46.000 But people are saying things like, it's only a few thousand people in Portland.

01:51:50.000 It's not even affecting the rest of the city.

01:51:53.000 It's all it takes, man.

01:51:54.000 Imagine if a hundred people stormed through, suppressed the federal agents, and just destroyed everything in that federal building.

01:52:00.000 And they could if they really wanted to.

01:52:01.000 They could easily overrun it.

01:52:06.000 Ian Hall says, okay, this one is for Lydia to get a beanie to complete the Beanie Gang.

01:52:11.000 The rest to cover the cat's rent.

01:52:13.000 Some funds can be directed this way. 0.99

01:52:14.000 Jesus, get a haircut, you dang hippie. 1.00

01:52:17.000 There we go. 0.98

01:52:20.000 Ian Fadet says, Mr. Adam, I don't believe your Portland friend reflects 90% of the rest of the Oregon state.

01:52:25.000 A microcosm, an exception to the rule, an anomaly, in general rule of thumb, cannot be considered a proper control group or definitive answer to problem.

01:52:34.000 I agree with you.

01:52:35.000 Ricky Swetman says, South Carolinian is a good place to park your van by the river.

01:52:42.000 Hit me up, I know some good places.

01:52:44.000 Nice.

01:52:44.000 Billy Geiger says, the left should love the Confederate statues, they are basically participation trophies for the Civil War.

01:52:53.000 Commander232 says, Tim and Adam, there is a problem with the statement of demilitarized law enforcement though.

01:53:00.000 As an FPS officer myself, I can state sadly, it's necessary.

01:53:04.000 The Hollywood shootout back in the 90s is what gave way to all of this, back when law enforcement didn't have rifles.

01:53:10.000 Yes.

01:53:11.000 And I believe they had armor-piercing bullets too, right?

01:53:13.000 Do you remember that?

01:53:13.000 No.

01:53:14.000 And then they got armor.

01:53:15.000 And so there was a concern about how the criminals decided to escalate their tactics against law enforcement because they knew they weren't prepared.

01:53:22.000 Which is why I'm saying I don't think total demilitarization is the answer.

01:53:27.000 I think oversight and restrictions.

01:53:30.000 So basically, should, you know, armored personnel carriers and other such things be deployed for protests?

01:53:36.000 Probably not.

01:53:37.000 But should they have them?

01:53:39.000 Maybe if they're worried about dealing with domestic terror because we've seen... I mean, look, if you're concerned about white supremacist extremism because dudes have shown up at theaters and churches, maybe the feds need to be deployed in certain areas.

01:53:52.000 And maybe we actually need law enforcement with armor and special weapons to deal with these lunatics. 0.96

01:53:59.000 All right, let's see.

01:54:00.000 What else we got?

01:54:01.000 I guess Adam's preparing the grand drawing.

01:54:04.000 I am, yeah.

01:54:04.000 A very fancy box over there.

01:54:06.000 So this is the box of mail that we've been getting for the board raffle.

01:54:11.000 And I'm just shuffling up.

01:54:13.000 You can continue.

01:54:14.000 I'm just shuffling.

01:54:15.000 Gareth Green says, Criggler Sunday.

01:54:17.000 Fairy tales do not tell children that dragons exist.

01:54:20.000 Children already know that dragons exist.

01:54:23.000 Fairy tales tell children that dragons can be killed.

01:54:26.000 GK Chesterton.

01:54:27.000 Okay, but actually there is parents out there that are showing their kids Harry Potter and telling them that magic is real.

01:54:36.000 This is actually something that's happened nowadays.

01:54:39.000 They want their kids to believe it so much.

01:54:41.000 They're telling them and they're asking people to give them tips and ideas to help keep that alive so the kid doesn't get sad when it happens.

01:54:52.000 And their argument is, well, when they finally find out that it's not real, it'll toughen them up.

01:54:57.000 It's like so that right there a mental break.

01:54:59.000 That's not true anymore So, I don't know what year that was written because that's not what's happening with these parents.

01:55:05.000 There's no parents There's nowadays are doing that literally stories about parents who are telling their kids Harry Potter is real and if their kids will go to Hogwarts when they turn 11 Yep, they buy them the robes and the wands and they tell them one you're gonna go to wizarding school and these kids believe it all Yeah, it's gonna happen when I turn 11 And their friends are making fun of them.

01:55:24.000 They're gonna be like, I hate my parents.

01:55:25.000 Yep. 1.00

01:55:25.000 I hate them. 1.00

01:55:26.000 Exactly. 1.00

01:55:26.000 I hate them. 1.00

01:55:27.000 And I'm never gonna trust them again. 0.93

01:55:28.000 Yep.

01:55:29.000 Or authority.

01:55:30.000 Anything.

01:55:30.000 Yep.

01:55:31.000 Numbers says, I'm 21 years.

01:55:33.000 I've traveled all over.

01:55:34.000 I've worked myself to the bone.

01:55:35.000 50 to 84 hour weeks.

01:55:37.000 I pulled myself up by my bootstraps and out of poverty.

01:55:39.000 Hard work and perseverance pays off.

01:55:41.000 Yeah.

01:55:41.000 I appreciate everything that you guys do.

01:55:43.000 Keep it up and inspire us all.

01:55:45.000 Well, we will do that.

01:55:47.000 Kix says, Hey guys, love the show.

01:55:47.000 Let's see.

01:55:49.000 Sent y'all a yellow book with a peculiar title. 1.00

01:55:52.000 Super stupid. 0.99

01:55:53.000 Was wondering if you received it and had a chance to look at it yet. 1.00

01:55:56.000 It's rather eye-opening on subjects such as perception and reality.

01:55:58.000 I'm not sure.

01:55:58.000 Cool.

01:55:59.000 We do have a bunch of boxes we have not opened yet.

01:56:01.000 That's true.

01:56:02.000 Gareth Green says, Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away is a life fable designed specifically for millennials, in which a girl of our generation learns responsibility and hard work.

01:56:12.000 Naturally, parents complained that it was scary.

01:56:15.000 Hard work is scary!

01:56:16.000 Yep.

01:56:18.000 It'sFatHead says, Mr. Poole, in my opinion, the difference between a hero and a villain is not power or will, it's humility.

01:56:23.000 Humility is the difference between knowing you can force your beliefs on others and not doing it, or making others do what you want.

01:56:30.000 I want to tell you a really great bit of writing.

01:56:33.000 It's in Naruto, which is an anime manga, and I'll give you the gist of it.

01:56:38.000 I'm sure diehard fans are going to start arguing with me.

01:56:40.000 You know, we know how the internet gets.

01:56:41.000 But the general idea is that the character Naruto has a teacher.

01:56:46.000 The teacher used to have a different student.

01:56:48.000 That student once said that he was going to do whatever he could to make the world a better place.

01:56:53.000 That inspired his teacher, Jiraiya, to write a book about basically this idea.

01:56:59.000 His new student, Naruto, was taught by Jiraiya and learned those same ideals.

01:57:04.000 But the other student became a villain, and Naruto and him fought.

01:57:07.000 And then finally, at the end, this once-idealistic pupil who had become a villain was asking Naruto, like, why do you fight?

01:57:16.000 And then Naruto basically said to him his own words, and it broke him when he realized he had become everything he swore that he would never be.

01:57:26.000 It's really, really great writing.

01:57:27.000 But, you know, just something I wanted to bring up that's inspirational.

01:57:31.000 I think, you know, if a young person learns that lesson of, like, don't become that monster, don't become the villain, it's also like the famous quote, you know, be careful when fighting monsters lest you become one, for when you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes back.

01:57:44.000 Conveying these ideas, I think, you know, awesome stuff.

01:57:47.000 Okay, let's see.

01:57:48.000 Got a couple more Super Chats here.

01:57:50.000 Grimsley says, Trump is working on the college requirement issue in the Fed.

01:57:54.000 He signed an executive order on the 30th of June to emphasize skills and de-emphasize college and experience alone.

01:57:59.000 Why should a mail carrier have a college degree?

01:57:59.000 Yeah, very cool.

01:58:02.000 I agree, man.

01:58:04.000 Yep.

01:58:05.000 To be put into debt.

01:58:07.000 Right.

01:58:07.000 That's it.

01:58:08.000 Yeah.

01:58:10.000 Matt Graham says more kids need to grow up on a farm while playing sports and Magic the Gathering and being scared of disappointing parents or guardians.

01:58:18.000 They need responsibility and constructive discipline.

01:58:20.000 You know, when I was 13, you know what I was doing?

01:58:23.000 I was playing Magic the Gathering.

01:58:25.000 Dragon Ball Z card game, at a local card shop, and skateboarding.

01:58:29.000 So what would happen is, we'd go to the card shop early on, like Saturday, we would play cards, and then around the afternoon, we would all go out and skate around the neighborhood, then once we got tired, go back to the card shop and play again until it started to get dark, and then go home.

01:58:41.000 We were exercising our minds and bodies.

01:58:41.000 Cool.

01:58:43.000 Nice.

01:58:44.000 Yep, strategy games and physical activity.

01:58:48.000 Edward Hughes says, Naruto made me a better man.

01:58:51.000 I believe that is absolutely possible.

01:58:54.000 It's not just about Naruto, but many anime characters have this thing about them I've talked about before, where in desperation they become stronger.

01:59:01.000 They refuse to give up.

01:59:02.000 They're willing to sacrifice themselves to save those they love.

01:59:05.000 It's a very powerful, like, trope.

01:59:07.000 The thing particularly about Naruto, though, is that he's kind of a screw-up in the series.

01:59:12.000 He's really bad at what he does, and there's weird things he has talents with, but through hard work and perseverance, he actually becomes one of the most powerful ninjas in all of the world.

01:59:22.000 I don't know anything about Naruto.

01:59:24.000 It's basically just a kid who's an outcast, and everyone makes fun of him in the early series, and then by the end, he's president.

01:59:30.000 That's the easiest way to put it.

01:59:32.000 So if you work hard and succeed, you can go from being a loser to being the president. 0.72

01:59:35.000 That's the point.

01:59:36.000 Alright, so I'm gonna do this here drawing here.

01:59:39.000 So about a month ago, we decided that we were going to do a drawing for the last Harumph board.

01:59:42.000 ago, maybe a little longer than a month ago, we decided that we were going to do a drawing for

01:59:46.000 the last Harumph board. So we got this board here and I am going to officially pick the winner right

01:59:54.000 now.

01:59:55.000 But first, smash the like button in honor of the 100th episode special drawing.

02:00:03.000 Smash that like button.

02:00:04.000 Smash that subscribe button.

02:00:06.000 There it is.

02:00:06.000 This is the winner.

02:00:08.000 I'm gonna throw that on the ground so you can't see it.

02:00:11.000 It is, uh... I hope they're watching.

02:00:14.000 Well, I hope it is.

02:00:15.000 This is Jeffrey of Greenville, South Carolina, I believe.

02:00:20.000 Congratulations, Jeffrey.

02:00:22.000 You've won the Harumph Board.

02:00:23.000 You have won the Harumph Board.

02:00:24.000 He just says, hi, I'm a loyal watcher of the show.

02:00:29.000 Your unbiased reporting and reasonable opinions are invaluable right now.

02:00:33.000 I hope you all stay safe and healthy and keep up the good work.

02:00:36.000 And then it says, I want the board.

02:00:37.000 And then it says, I want the soy board.

02:00:39.000 The soy board.

02:00:41.000 Which actually is sitting here.

02:00:43.000 Is it over here?

02:00:44.000 No, it's against the couch.

02:00:44.000 Oh, no, it's over there.

02:00:45.000 That's alright.

02:00:46.000 I will count it.

02:00:47.000 I'll count it.

02:00:47.000 Well, he can't have the soy board.

02:00:49.000 He can't have the soy board.

02:00:49.000 It's the Harumph board.

02:00:50.000 But you did, we said you just enter for the skateboard, so congratulations.

02:00:56.000 You're gonna have one of our Harumph boards on the way to you.

02:00:59.000 Thank you for supporting us.

02:01:00.000 We really appreciate it.

02:01:01.000 Yeah, man.

02:01:01.000 So, a couple Super Chats that I won't mention.

02:01:03.000 Someone, Mother Clucker says, Tim, how are you about the anime Bleach?

02:01:08.000 Bleach is an awesome anime.

02:01:10.000 It's unfortunate how Bleach kind of ended.

02:01:13.000 I read the history of how the anime and the manga came to be, and it was a really, really great universe.

02:01:18.000 I wish they could have done a little bit better with it.

02:01:20.000 We'll see how it plays out.

02:01:21.000 I haven't followed it since the first series ended.

02:01:23.000 I think they might be doing another one.

02:01:25.000 And someone mentioned Black Clover as well.

02:01:28.000 Another equally awesome series about someone who's kind of a screw-up who discovers their true power and like... I don't know any of those.

02:01:34.000 You don't need to.

02:01:34.000 The general idea is just it's a very common trope to be a loser who works really hard and then succeeds.

02:01:40.000 That you can have characters who are made fun of and mocked and belittled, and they earn their place.

02:01:40.000 Cool.

02:01:46.000 Love that.

02:01:47.000 Yeah, so I'll tell you this.

02:01:47.000 Exactly.

02:01:48.000 Gotta work for it.

02:01:49.000 You'll like this.

02:01:50.000 In the anime Black Clover, everybody has, like, not everybody, but most people have, like, magic powers, right?

02:01:54.000 Okay.

02:01:55.000 This one dude doesn't.

02:01:56.000 So what he does is he works out until he becomes insanely ripped, and then he's just like incredibly powerful because he refuses to be weak.

02:02:04.000 You know, he earns it, he fights for it.

02:02:07.000 The lesson there?

02:02:08.000 Everyone is dealt a hand of cards.

02:02:11.000 Your cards may be bad, but if you play them correctly, even with like a 7-2 offsuit in five card stud, you can still win if you know how to play the game.

02:02:20.000 That's what it's all about.

02:02:23.000 And now people are super chatting a whole bunch of Naruto stuff.

02:02:26.000 Meta says, the scene where Hinata defends Naruto is maybe the best scene in the series.

02:02:29.000 Her story arc is highly underrated.

02:02:31.000 It is a very good scene, yes.

02:02:33.000 Ian Hall says, we took a poll in chat for Lydia's headwear.

02:02:36.000 One for beanie, two barrette, three the cat.

02:02:39.000 The cat won hands down.

02:02:40.000 Okay, I will work on that.

02:02:41.000 That's not really surprising.

02:02:43.000 Thanks guys.

02:02:43.000 You can get Buku to sleep on your head.

02:02:45.000 I could do it.

02:02:46.000 Tristan Logue says, when you believe something is right or wrong, true or false, you believe the assumptions in the words which express the arguments.

02:02:56.000 Such assumptions are often full of holes, but remain most precious to the convinced.

02:03:00.000 Dune.

02:03:02.000 Zero the Slayer says, Don Lemon mocked the mental acuity test for the president, and then immediately flubs the test.

02:03:07.000 No, is that real?

02:03:08.000 I don't know.

02:03:09.000 Oh, I gotta pull that out.

02:03:10.000 I really hope so, too.

02:03:11.000 Well, we know we're about to go check it out.

02:03:13.000 I believe it!

02:03:14.000 I believe it!

02:03:15.000 Ladies and gentlemen, this has been the 100th episode of TeamCast IRL.

02:03:21.000 Thank you for hanging out as long as you all have.

02:03:24.000 Thanks for subscribing, for smashing the like button.

02:03:26.000 I tip thy beanie to all of you.

02:03:29.000 We didn't reach 50,000 likes, but we did reach just over half of that goal, so the big ask still worked.

02:03:35.000 That's a Trump technique.

02:03:36.000 Got it.

02:03:37.000 Ask for way more than you really want, and you'll get more than you expect.

02:03:40.000 Yeah, man.

02:03:41.000 Thanks for the superchats.

02:03:42.000 Make sure you subscribe, hit the notification bell, and again, smash the like button.

02:03:45.000 We'll be back tomorrow for the Friday night show and subsequent jam session at 8 p.m.

02:03:51.000 So again, thanks for hanging out for the special show, and Jeffrey, you'll be getting a board in the mail, and we will see you all tomorrow.

02:03:57.000 Bye, guys.
