00:02:39.000The United States is set for the largest mass visa revocation in history, targeting upwards of 200,000 foreigners, business visas, tourist visas.
00:02:54.000Basically, Rubio and Trump are just like, get out.
00:02:57.000They're not going to let anybody just show up and request asylum.
00:03:01.000The interesting thing is there's this really interesting graph which shows this like crazy parabolic curve of asylum, asylees, with the question being, Has the world really gotten that much worse in the past five years that we are getting legitimate asylum seekers?0.98
00:03:18.000And the answer is no, of course not.0.97
00:03:20.000Plus, many of these people coming from Central America or even South America or even Africa could stay in any other country, but they're coming to America.
00:03:28.000So it's going to be big, big news, my friends.
00:03:30.000And then we got in that vein and a really interesting story.
00:03:33.000So, Just the News sent a Freedom of Information request to ICE pertaining to Ilhan Omar allegedly marrying her brother to get him illegal citizenship.
00:03:41.000And they responded, They cannot release that information due to ongoing enforcement actions.
00:03:48.000Now, the rumor there is that Ilhan Omar is currently facing enforcement for marrying her brother, I guess, but we don't know that for sure.
00:03:56.000This could be something else, it could be other immigration fraud.
00:04:37.000And then we got to talk about what happened at the WNBA with Dinas Cantor, and they're screaming at him and swearing, and oh man, woke is back.
00:05:08.000Most of us have already accepted that tech companies collect enormous amounts of information what we're clicking, where we're going, what we buy, who we interact with.
00:05:15.000That information is valuable because your attention is valuable.
00:05:17.000And the worst thing about it is, Now, surveillance pricing is everywhere.
00:05:21.000So, if they know what you're talking about, when you look things up, they'll be more expensive.
00:05:25.000So, you got to keep that stuff private.
00:05:27.000Keat takes a radically different approach.
00:05:29.000It's a free messaging, file sharing, and video calling app built peer to peer.
00:05:33.000There's no centralized company database holding your conversations, no metadata tracking, no phone number or email required.
00:05:39.000Your messages are end to end encrypted and move between the people in the conversation.
00:05:42.000Your private life shouldn't be another crop in someone else's data farm.
00:05:58.000No phone number, no email required, no trackers, no metadata collection.
00:06:02.000It's end to end encrypted, no centralized company database, peer to peer communication, and it's free on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac OS, and Linux.
00:07:10.000U.S. set for largest mass visa revocation in history, targeting up to 200,000 foreigners, officials say.
00:07:18.000The Trump admin is preparing to revoke the business and tourism visas up to 200,000 foreigners who have applied for or are currently seeking asylum status in the U.S. If it happens, the move would be the largest single mass revocation of visas in U.S. history and would likely face legal challenge.
00:07:33.000Unless challenged or revised, the State Department is expected to announce in the coming weeks the revocation of so called B1 and B2 visas issued between 2016 and 2026.
00:07:42.000Whose holders have sought asylum or are now seeking asylum, according to State Department documents obtained by the AP and two U.S. officials.
00:07:50.000The action will be taken in coordination with the Department of Homeland Security.
00:08:04.000So I don't know if you saw what just happened out of Sweden, where they found that something like 70% of the people that had applied for refugee status in Sweden had actually gone back and visited.
00:08:15.000The country that they had sought refugee status from.
00:08:18.000I'm willing to bet, I'm willing to bet the people that actually came over on business visas, if you actually check their travel records, they've gone back home and visited the country that they're now going to seek asylum from.
00:08:28.000I mean, I think that the asylum program and the H1B programs are two of the most abused, probably second only to Social Security, because basically anybody that can come up with sore knees attempts to get on Social Security.0.52
00:08:45.000So I think that anything the government can do.
00:08:49.000To have deport people that are here in fraudulent cases.
00:09:51.000I'm even thinking about Nashville because there was bigness out of Nashville that the prices are collapsing, particularly, even though it's a boom town.
00:09:57.000There's Oracle's moving, Starbucks is moving.
00:09:59.000You'd think the prices would go up, but they're not.0.67
00:10:02.000They're going down, and this is good news because it means that four bedroom house with a white picket fence and a yard and a half acre for a Gen Z guy and gal to move into and have a family is going to be within their grasp once we start eliminating the artificial demand pumped in here by Democrats so that boomers can have expensive houses.0.52
00:10:21.000Yeah, well, it's funny because I mean, JD Vance was on the stump today in Maine, and he like literally said this Trump's deportations are lowering rent prices, and then, you know, of course, all these.0.69
00:10:29.000People start combing through all the different graphs or whatever.
00:10:32.000But it's like, dude, we're positing a very simple mechanism here, which is let's do a graph.
00:11:23.000You know, the kids get a little nervous over that.
00:11:25.000So again, this is absolutely correct decision here on revoking these visas because, you know, the visa overstays is really where we're getting burned.
00:11:32.000You know, when people think about illegal immigration, they're thinking, oh, it's people, you know, just marching across the southern border like the migrant caravans we saw under Biden.0.60
00:11:38.000Well, the overwhelming majority of illegal immigrants.
00:11:40.000Came in the country legally, they just overstayed their visa.0.53
00:11:44.000Again, the tourist visa is very common.
00:11:45.000And then once they try to turn that visa into an asylum claim or a different visa, they get it jammed up in the courts.
00:11:51.000These immigration lawyers, unfortunately, are pretty good at their jobs and it causes a lot of problems.
00:11:55.000So Trump is going right to the source here of these visa overstays and just saying, no, we're going in and investigating why you're here in the first place.
00:12:02.000Because this is a point that I've made on the show previously is that for one reason or another, the visa requirements are imposed with max scrutiny on Europeans, on Australians, on Canadians.
00:12:14.000But then when it comes to the third world, it's like they're in an entirely different playing field.0.99
00:12:18.000Like they get to just skimp on whatever restrictions needed and they somehow end up in the country.1.00
00:12:22.000So again, I don't think that, you know, people are like, all this and then the H1B that Trump's cracking down on.0.77
00:12:28.000This is going to cost to so many, you know, bright minds and whatnot.
00:12:32.000I'm like, those people will find a way in the country.
00:12:34.000If they're super intelligent and that's the cream that we need to skim, so to speak, trust me, we're not going to have a problem getting them in the country.
00:12:40.000What we're doing here is not just trimming the fat, but lopping off the fat because, quite frankly, there's a lot of fat in this country and it's Killing us.
00:12:46.000So it kind of goes back to that initial point.
00:13:06.000But it was primarily English Protestants, right?0.52
00:13:08.000And then if you look at immigration that took place for about the first 100 years of our country's history, it was predominantly from Europe.
00:13:14.000So it was from countries that actually had some sort of shared traditions, history, et cetera.
00:13:20.000And then in 1920, even that immigration was too much for Americans.
00:13:23.000They felt like there had been an influx.0.59
00:13:24.000And it was like, look, we need to slow this down so we can actually facilitate assimilation.1.00
00:13:38.000Hart Cellar is the first time you have ever experienced mass importation from the third world into the United States.
00:13:45.000And it was very much intentional because it didn't just do mass third world immigration, it didn't just open it up and end the preferential treatment for cultures that are similar to our own.
00:13:53.000It actually allowed for chain migration.
00:13:55.000So now all of a sudden, you don't just get to immigrate to the country because we think that A, you will be a good fit, and B, you actually have the means to contribute.
00:14:02.000Now, oh, you came over here and you have legal status.
00:14:20.000You can't even, you can't even, you're no longer allowed to say, look, there are some cultures that are similar to ours, and those are the cultures that we should open our borders to first.
00:14:33.000It's a situation where now, if you say, oh, well, they're very different, they come from a very different culture, and they have a very different background.
00:14:39.000Oh, well, now you're a racist because, you know, you're a racist.0.76
00:14:45.000Well, no, I mean, yes, yes, 100% for sure.
00:14:47.000And what's crazy is these same people that are like literally advocating for all of that and so much more, they want to go way beyond the heart cellar, they want to have like mandatory diversification.0.74
00:14:55.000If an area is too white, they literally appeal to the founding fathers all the time.
00:14:59.000I don't know if you remember this clip a few months ago from John Ossoff.
00:16:29.000I've never been described like that in my life.
00:16:32.000So I was talking to my buddies from our Where we grew up, and I was mentioning this last week, there's a video like there was a news report from my neighborhood, and there's like a shooting or something that happened.
00:16:42.000And this video from the news it's just a normal news video showing the neighborhood.
00:16:46.000There's cop cars everywhere, and the people who live in the houses are standing outside of their houses looking around, and they're like Indian and Pakistani and Chinese.
00:16:55.000And you know, I got no beef, you know what I mean?
00:16:57.000It's just pretty crazy when I say to my friends, like, you realize that that neighborhood that used to be a bunch of old people, old white people, and Polish immigrants.0.99
00:17:05.000It's now like it's Latino, Pakistani, and Asian.0.91
00:18:01.000If there were no migrants to take these homes, well, they'd be selling for $100,000, $130,000, maybe.0.97
00:18:08.000And some young person might be like, hey, I'll actually move to the Southside.0.50
00:18:11.000Without that initial migration, we have to talk about the Hart Cellar, you wouldn't have seen the massive suburban sprawl that we have now.
00:18:17.000So, we're kind of in this weird situation where now we'd be like reducing the amount of people to there'd be less dollars chasing housing stock, right?
00:18:24.000But like if we nipped this in the bud early on, we would have never needed these massive sprawling suburbs because people would have been comfortable raising a family in the inner city.
00:18:33.000Where the fact that when I say inner city, that's like code word for bad, that wasn't a thing until 40 years ago.
00:18:38.000Like, as an American, you need to understand what was taken from you.
00:18:41.000It's quite literally, we had some of the most beautiful cities on planet Earth.
00:18:44.000And in our like grandparents' lifetimes, they got completely eviscerated.
00:18:48.000Where a place like Chicago, you know, you look and it's like, I was making this point on Twitter.1.00
00:18:52.000You know, the highway belts basically tell you like every crime wave or immigration wave that we saw, where it's like they built another highway wave or a highway loop and then another migrant wave came in.
00:19:02.000So then they had to fall back to the next county over and then built another highway loop.
00:19:06.000To be fair, New York was kind of shot in the 70s.
00:19:08.000I mean, you had, you know, like you had some bad cities, but, and so like, you know, New York, but, you know, prior to the 1960s, again, living in inner city Chicago, you could raise a family there, no problem.
00:19:18.000Detroit was the second wealthiest city in America.
00:19:21.000And, but then you also look at the urban renewal plans that, that, that, Democrats were coming up with back then, and the way they intersected cities with the interstate.
00:19:30.000And they created a lot of problems with their own urban planning and their federal infusion of cash in some of these areas.
00:19:37.000But yeah, you just see, we also have to look, inflationary monetary policy has also caused the price of housing along every other freaking asset to go up significantly.
00:19:49.000So I don't think it's all an immigration issue, but I do think the immigration issue is one of the most significant things that we can actually affect immediately.
00:19:57.000Well, yeah, immigration just takes an existing problem, like for example, California with prop, was it eight in the 70s or prop 13, which basically like froze property taxes.
00:20:06.000And the people are like, oh, I never have to sell my house again, which is up for debate or whatever.
00:20:10.000And so far as that did create a pinch in the housing market, immigration basically just turbocharges whatever pre existing market condition is leading to a housing pinch.0.54
00:20:18.000Immigration just takes that and sticks their thumb in the wound.0.68
00:20:21.000I mean, the just like you said earlier, like, you know, getting rid of the people that are here illegally solves an incredible amount of problems.1.00
00:20:36.000It will provide jobs for people that are supposed to be here for Americans.
00:20:40.000Just the amount of people that the Biden administration let in, not even going back prior to that, right?
00:20:47.000When Donald Trump came down the elevator in 2015 and announced it was like, I didn't really have the concept that immigration, we had a lot of big problems with illegal immigration.
00:21:02.000And then here we are now 10, 11 years later.
00:21:05.000And it's like, oh, well, now it's clear because of the Biden administration.
00:21:08.000It was bad before the Biden administration.
00:21:10.000Well, people also don't understand that Biden did a lot of tricks within executive orders, within refugee laws, and things like that, where he turned what had historically always been illegal immigration into legal immigration.
00:21:23.000And that's, I mean, like Chip Roy and other people have actually got bills that are trying to change this and codify it.
00:21:28.000So it's not just an executive order battle.
00:21:30.000But that's the part where you will see these arrogant liberals going, you don't even understand that this was legal immigration.
00:21:36.000Yeah, because it completely changed the definition of what a refugee was.
00:21:40.000Well, it's funny, too, because, like, you know, people used to say, well, I don't care, you know, where you're coming from, as long as you do it legally.
00:21:47.000They stopped saying that during the Biden administration because Biden was like, okay, magic wand, they're here legally.
00:21:52.000And then they were like, oh, it was actually the people are the problem, not their immigration status.0.94
00:21:56.000Like, that's the most ridiculous claim.
00:21:58.000It's like, okay, because you got some magical piece of paperwork from a courthouse, now all of a sudden you're like, I don't know, flipping through a pocketbook constitution.0.96
00:22:04.000And also, I think, you know, the volume matters, too.
00:22:06.000If we didn't have 20, 30, 40 million people here that are illegal, then it wouldn't be such an issue.
00:22:14.000But if you had 100,000, 200,000 people that were here illegally nationwide, it'd be like, yeah, we can handle it.
00:22:24.000Jeremy Carl makes this point about he's talking about when he's interacted with Indian Americans, right?
00:22:29.000Like the children of Indian immigrants or potentially even first generation Indian immigrants themselves.
00:22:33.000And he says their assimilation level, right?
00:22:37.000Is completely dictated on where they grew up.
00:22:39.000So he says he'll meet these Indian Americans and they're like American as the next guy.
00:22:44.000And typically they grew up in Idaho or they grew up in like, I don't know, maybe like South Carolina or something.0.99
00:22:49.000He says the ones that are like Zoran types, those are the ones that grew up in Los Angeles or New York or Boston.0.99
00:22:54.000Not because those are liberal cities, but because they were in proximity to other Indians, they were allowed to form like enclaves, right?0.99
00:23:00.000So like the volume is key because low volume means they're spread out, they're surrounded by Americans steeped in that American ness, and they kind of shake off whatever their home tended to be.0.95
00:23:09.000Have y'all seen that video of the Norwegian guy who was raised in India?
00:23:45.000We get Poles and Hungarians, and we'll give you all the Hassan Pikers you like today.1.00
00:23:49.000I mean, I think that's more important than, honestly, I mean, and this maybe is because I'm Gen X, but I think that's far more important than race.1.00
00:23:56.000Like, if you love the country and you believe in the United States, I would prefer you to some white guy that's like, oh, well, you know, I'm a comic.
00:24:10.000Here's a question for you then, because I talked about this with Cenk Ueger a few years ago.
00:24:14.000He believes that the naturally born citizen requirement for president is unconstitutional.
00:24:19.000Because if there's a process towards naturalization, then you are supposed to be a full fledged citizen.
00:24:26.000My argument is that it is not possible for a person born outside of the United States to ever be a full fledged citizen.0.90
00:24:33.000And there's only one thing you need to understand.
00:24:35.000Well, there's two things the natural born requirement for presidency and the right of denaturalization that exists under the INA and with the Constitution.
00:24:45.000Meaning, if you're born here, ain't nobody ever kicking you out or taking away your citizenship.
00:24:48.000But if you're born anywhere else and come here and live here for 20 years, And they find you commit fraud or there's justifiable reason, they can revoke that 20 years on and kick you out.
00:24:57.000But there's an interesting point to be made when we're talking about this issue.
00:25:01.000Who would you rather have, Hassan Piker, born in America, or Dinesh D'Souza?
00:25:33.000Hassan hates this country and celebrates Chairman Mao.
00:25:36.000And Dinesh loves this country and celebrates America.
00:25:38.000Well, so we have a small, I don't know if you guys know this, we have a small cemetery in England that is technically American sovereign territory now.
00:25:47.000They granted this territory to us for us to maintain.
00:25:50.000Likewise, we have a similar arrangement with them.
00:25:52.000There's a cemetery, I think, in South Carolina.
00:25:54.000So I guess what I'm trying to get at here.
00:25:56.000Is we should consider offering the hospital room that Hassan Piker was born in to the Turks as a gift.
00:26:03.000This is clearly someone that is of important distinction.
00:26:50.000ICE said, ICE has determined the information you requested is being withheld in full pursuit of Title V, U.S.C. 552 B7A.
00:26:59.000Disclosure of any responsive records at this time could reasonably be expected to interfere with enforcement proceedings, ICE told Just the News.
00:27:08.000The exemption itself does not establish Omar committed any wrongdoing or there are charges filed against her.
00:27:13.000Now, the presumption many people have is that she is being investigated for immigration fraud by marrying her brother.
00:27:19.000But I want to stress this it's possible the enforcement action is related to someone entirely different for which she is tangentially involved, meaning they requested information on some immigration stuff, they've got illegal immigrants who committed fraud or immigrants who committed fraud, and she pops up in the documents.
00:27:42.000Nobody deserves to be denaturalized and deported.
00:27:46.000In order for her to be denaturalized, they have to prove that she attained U.S. citizenship through fraudulent means or that her family did.
00:27:53.000And I don't think those are the accusations against her.
00:27:55.000The accusations are that she, after the fact, married her brother to get him citizenship.
00:27:59.000Now, I will stress the novel arguments is that if I get a job at a bank, legitimately and honestly, but then pass off my ID to my friend because the plan the whole time was to rob the bank.
00:28:13.000You're going to jail as an accomplice.
00:28:15.000In which case, the argument is if she obtained immigration for the purpose of committing fraud, she can be denaturalized as well.
00:28:22.000So, what was interesting is that I, not that I can prove, I believe that her dad was fraudulent when he sought immigration.
00:28:30.000Because again, the guy was a part of the Somali regime that was, I mean, what is it, Sade Bar or something like that?0.92
00:28:35.000I mean, he had legitimately conducted genocide.0.96
00:28:40.000Her dad had been like a lieutenant colonel in that guy's military, had served in that guy's military for, I think, upwards of 20 years.
00:28:46.000I don't think there's any way that guy didn't have blood on his hands, which would have completely prevented him from ever becoming a U.S. citizen.
00:28:52.000He was able to get her over, and then she didn't become a U.S. citizen until I think like 17, right before she became an adult, where she would have had to go through a different process.
00:29:02.000I thought the way that the immigration law stated it was it's not something you can be denaturalized for more than just defrauding the government with respect to your own naturalization.
00:30:21.000And if you come to the United States, you should not be allowed to become a citizen or get a visa or even a green card if you're hostile to the United States.
00:30:34.000Anyone who comes to this country who's not a citizen has to be filmed on video holding up their right hand and saying, you know, I love this country.1.00
00:31:24.000This is not about getting a better congressperson out of that district.
00:31:27.000This is about setting a precedent that if you do certain things, we will actually enforce our own laws, and that includes a member of the people.
00:32:17.000The American descendants, the descendants of the Americans, the traditional Americans, heritage Americans, whatever they call it, they're not willing to do anything to enforce these laws or stand up.0.99
00:32:28.000These Gen Z kids who are watching Honduran farmers get free hotels in New York are not doing anything.0.94
00:32:35.000Well, I think they are within the bounds of what's possible, what is reality.1.00
00:32:40.000I mean, if you look at which group voted for Trump in the highest proportion, English Americans were number one.
00:32:48.000If you were going to like distill Heritage American into one ethnicity, it would be English Americans.0.53
00:32:52.000We haven't had much English immigration in the last hundred years.
00:32:55.000So, again, within what is available to them, what is possible in reality, right?1.00
00:32:58.000Because we don't like, we don't want them to throw their life away.
00:33:01.000You know, they like have a super base moment and go to jail for the rest of their lives.
00:33:04.000Instead, being pragmatic, getting involved in politics, et cetera, or just simply casting a vote, the Heritage Americans are pretty much doing everything that they can.
00:33:11.000This is why they're dubbed the last bulwark, et cetera.
00:33:16.000And to Nick's point, like, I totally agree.
00:33:18.000I mean, like, insofar as you have to send a message to people.
00:33:21.000That this kind of thing won't be tolerated.0.99
00:33:22.000What I was getting at is that I think this could potentially be chud bait where they toss Ilhan Omar out and they're like, see, how based is that?0.98
00:33:31.000Meanwhile, the main problem here, and I'm not saying you're not saying this, the main problem with Ilhan Omar isn't Ilhan Omar.0.98
00:33:37.000She is just the sort of the manifestation of the problem, which is the fact that why are Somalis going to not just America, but the most hostile environment for them?0.92
00:33:49.000It's like the opposite of Somalia.0.66
00:34:45.000But if you look at the whole impetus for letting the conservatives back into power with Boris Johnson, it was two things get immigration under control, solve Brexit, get Brexit done.
00:34:56.000And then he literally took the immigration thing and, in spinal tap fashion, turned it up to 11.
00:35:20.000So, the idea is to bring in a bunch of different people from all over the world in the same place and force them to live in this cosmopolitan, futuristic utopia, which is not possible to exist.
00:35:29.000Because you take a look at any of the enclaves that have formed since they started doing this, and it's been a disaster.
00:35:34.000Not to get too esoteric, you know, forgive me, but it quite literally is the Tower of Babel 2.0.
00:35:40.000We're trying to recreate what God ordained in our image to then like ascend to like some sort of divine being, like in the most esoteric fashion.
00:35:50.000That is broadly true, is that they think that, you know, post racialism broadly is like the pinnacle of human civilization.0.66
00:35:57.000If we can just achieve that, if we can like abolish all of that in any way, shape, or form, then we'll finally reach like a human.
00:38:09.000Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do, nothing to kill or die for, and no religion, too.
00:38:14.000Imagine all the people living life in peace.
00:38:17.000This is like, with all due respect to John Lennon for, you know, the great music, it's like he never read a book in his life or watched the news one time.
00:38:26.000Okay, there are places on the earth with disputed borders.
00:38:31.000Okay, let's talk about what it means when there's no countries, right?
00:38:33.000And we can understand this by looking at places with disputed borders.
00:38:37.000It's not, let me just say, when no one knows where the rules begin and where the enforcement ends, they're just killing each other all the time.1.00
00:38:47.000So, if that's what you're interested in, and let's just say about the no religion too.1.00
00:38:51.000I think in the past 30 years, with the decline of the Christian moral tradition in the United States, we have come to see a lot of disgusting, degenerate things that are bad for humanity's survival and existence.1.00
00:39:04.000The grooming, the weird books we've seen, these things destroy the minds of children and make them, let's just say, afflicted adults.
00:39:14.000So I think the idea is not, and also, Lord have mercy, it's, and I'm not gonna accuse John Lennon of not having theological understanding, but no religion.
00:39:25.000The problem with this, and the problem I have with a lot of liberals and talk about religion, is they don't understand that moral philosophies underpin many religions, and they have what I would call like, A holographic religion.
00:39:36.000There is no core, like to the atheists.
00:39:40.000And look, if you're an atheist, I think you're wrong, but that's okay.
00:39:44.000What I'm saying is you still have a moral framework.
00:39:46.000And there isn't a faith core base to it, but you still have a very similar moral framework, which is going to be similar or different or whatever.
00:39:55.000You're not getting rid of ideological frameworks and moral frameworks.
00:39:58.000So, when it says no religion, okay, then communists run around mass incurring people and fascists do too.
00:40:03.000And there is no moral framework underpinning what a person can or cannot do or will or will not do.
00:42:07.000And that's a good thing because that means there are a small few people, myself not included.0.97
00:42:14.000Don't think that I'm trying to, you know, toot my own horn, but a small few people that really, really excel and they drag the rest of us morons up with them.0.56
00:42:23.000If you have a system which encourages it.0.93
00:42:27.000Because again, under a communist system, you will have.
00:42:30.000A small degree of people that really flourish in that system.
00:42:33.000They'll be the best ones that know how to use political power to punish and reward.
00:42:38.000But if you create this sort of economic system or social system where you are rewarded for, let's say, I don't know, doing a really effective and efficient job of using scarce resources in order to provide the goods and services which make everyone's lives better.
00:42:52.000In that system, even if you're a greedy SOB, but the only way that you can actually satisfy your greed. Is by providing goods and services that other people have to voluntarily exchange with you on, that's a positive incentive structure.
00:43:56.000That's John Lennon, if he ever was, if he stayed alive, if he wasn't murdered and he was able to watch a Prager U video, that would be John Lennon.
00:44:03.000John Lennon having never met Yoko Ono.
00:44:05.000If you had asked Chat GPT that, it would have been like, imagine doing exactly what Chat GPT.
00:44:36.000Uh, silver lining to overall John Lennon.
00:44:38.000Not that I'm a big Beatles fan, but uh, he wrote a small uh, he wrote a song where he was actually calling out Mao Zedong because the the uh, you know, the Great Leap Forward and stuff happened before their time, and that stuff wasn't widely known, but it had become it was starting to make its way through.
00:44:56.000And he actually said, you know, he was like, if you're if you're I forget what the lyric was, but it was something like, but if you're if you want to be like Mao, then you know, leave me out of it or something.
00:45:05.000Part of the reason he hated the Mao, so much is because he was counter signaling everything Nixon did.
00:45:10.000And at the time, Nixon was like pro, like opening China's markets.
00:47:03.000Now, that's a song, the fat chud version.1.00
00:47:06.000I would have respected it more if it actually took the real definition of chud and just talked about eating people and living in the sewers.1.00
00:48:39.000You may say I'm a chud, but I'm not the only one.0.84
00:48:44.000All right, I said, now as if an incel wrote it says, I can make the narrator an exaggerated, terminally online incel character, bitter, self pitying, resentful of dating apps and chads.
00:49:05.000Oh, I got to say, I have never been more proud of the Gen Z and the millennials that are breaking off their girlfriends and engagements now based off of how they responded to the Clancy Clancy.
00:49:20.000Oh, dude, if your girlfriend or your fiance is like, yeah, I'm sympathetic to the woman that strangled all three of her kids, breaking up with her is definitely an appropriate way out.
00:49:45.000It was like this Reddit chat that I saw.
00:49:46.000I saw it on YouTube and it was a woman who was like everything you would expect of like an HR, liberal woke HR rep. And she was talking about she was noticing something that had happened differently with the men in her life that she hadn't experienced over the last five years.
00:50:01.000And it was all of them were now just ignoring her.
00:50:03.000Every time she would try to engage with a, you know, every time she would try to educate them on the proper way to, you know, she goes, it used to be that we'd get in fights.
00:50:12.000Like I'd get in fight with the uncle at Thanksgiving or whatnot.
00:50:15.000Now they literally just look at me like, Okay, cool.
00:50:33.000I think, I think one of the biggest things that a lot of women, and first of all, I'll say this there's a lot of conservative women that are every bit as pissed with Lindsey Clancy.1.00
00:51:29.000Where not only can you kill our kids in the womb through all nine months of pregnancy, but now you can strangle them on the outside and you're the one that gets sympathy and the husband is to blame.
00:51:40.000That's where you move men into the screw you phase of the exercise.
00:52:07.000When people are just screaming at him, I'm like, I know, like, I've been there too.
00:52:10.000And it's like you can't stop watching because he's so calm, like these guys.
00:52:16.000And the funniest thing about him, and the reason why I love him so much, well, the good conversations are good conversations, but the funny ones are when women will yell, Do you have a uterus?0.57
00:52:24.000And then when the woman is with them, they just drop it and they yell anyway.0.60
00:52:27.000Like, it would never really matter if the question was about a uterus.0.80
00:52:38.000I think what everyone's missing is that all we need to do as a society is create decoy things to be mad about that don't affect the state of, like, you know, political affairs, economy.
00:52:48.000What was the point of, like, keeping up with the housewives or whatever?
00:52:51.000Was like preoccupy the Foyds while the men, like, build rockets and stuff.1.00
00:52:54.000And then now they're like, we want to, like, get involved in politics.
00:53:00.000I just blanked on his name, but he got up there and he's like, hey, I'm just saying, with the feminine, you guys, your timing was excellent.
00:53:06.000It's like for centuries, men were out there when it was like 80% of the occupations were backbreaking labor.0.99
00:53:26.000You know, there's like one out of every thousand.0.99
00:53:29.000This is an important point I like to bring up is that women always complain about the glass ceiling, but they never talk about the glass floor.1.00
00:53:40.000If you're a young man in this country and you're looking for work, you're going to be told to shovel crap.0.97
00:53:44.000They're going to say, and use your hands.0.94
00:53:46.000And if you're a young woman, they're going to say, how would you like to make $100 every few hours handing sodas to people at a restaurant?
00:53:53.000Easy, easy, low skilled jobs that pay really well.1.00
00:53:56.000But then guys finally, I'll tell you, you know, I think one of the problems how feminism becomes emergent.
00:54:01.000So you're a young man, life is pretty bad, right?
00:54:06.000You have no skills, you have low societal value, and you have to learn and earn your skills.1.00
00:54:10.000And if you don't, and you become frail and stupid, you're just worthless to people.1.00
00:54:17.000So, guys grow up in a muck where it's hard to get work.1.00
00:54:48.000This is actually research from like Harvard and Yale and stuff.
00:54:51.000And so when they enter the workforce, they get medium level jobs.
00:54:55.000They tend to pay more for less work.1.00
00:54:56.000I'm not saying women don't work hard.1.00
00:54:58.000I'm saying that, you know, I know young dudes who had to literally shuffle manure and they'd get 20 bucks a day.
00:55:05.000And then, you know, their siblings, the dude's sister worked at a local Italian restaurant and she made 200 bucks working four hours because serving paid better and they don't want to hire men for the most part for entry level server jobs typically.
00:55:18.000So then these women, They're making 200 bucks working a few hours, or they're getting hired at small shops while the guys are doing the labor stuff.
00:55:26.000But as time goes on, their social values start to decline.0.72
00:55:29.000And this is around, I think the age is around 27 is when the apex, I'm sorry, the inversion happens.0.74
00:55:36.000Men at around 27, 28 have equal social value to women, but women have started to decline while men are ascendant.0.56
00:55:42.000So now these women are starting to say things like, hey, bad things are starting to happen to me and I don't like it.0.91
00:55:48.000And men are starting to say, hey, life's actually not that bad.
00:55:51.000What happens then in the early 30s when women are now experiencing more hardship because society, and I'm not saying it's right that society treats women this way, but society starts to value men less in their 30s and men more for their skills.
00:56:03.000The men who are highly tolerant of hardship and don't really care, if you're a guy, you've been in a fight before, you're just like, I'm not going to break a sweat over this.
00:57:27.000And the problem is, you could not have found a more pernicious, Way to lie to both men and women.
00:57:35.000Because if your goal is to destroy the family or your goal is just whatever your goal is, that was the best way to do it because it creates the most resentment and animosity between both sides.
00:57:44.000But I do have to wonder if it's really a bad thing in the long run because while there are bad things happening from it, the strong will survive.
00:58:07.000And I know a lot of people are going to say, no, no, Tim, there's a lot of accidental babies.
00:58:10.000Trust me, with the way the liberals abort, accidental babies are becoming something of the past.
00:58:15.000And the people who are successfully reproducing, so those who believe in family, want family, think about what that results in in a couple generations.
00:58:23.000The dominant culture in this country will be traditionalist Christian.
00:58:26.000If you look at when they polled young men and young women between 18 and 29 who voted for Trump and who voted for Harris, the number one goal of young men who voted for Donald Trump was to have a family.
00:58:36.000Out of 13 measures of success, I was their number one.
00:58:39.000It was six for women that voted for Trump.
00:58:41.000It was 10 for men that voted for Harris.
00:58:53.000And so when you look at that, and then you look at the birth rate among liberal women is 0.38, that's unsustainable.
00:59:01.000And so if the left can't import a population, or, and this is the big problem that I get on to conservatives about, like if you hand your kids over to the left for their education, Then you cannot be surprised when your values are transferred.
00:59:14.000I mean, this, as I remember when I was a kid going to school, I despised it.
00:59:19.000I had very few good teachers, a couple that I can shout out that were very good, and most of them were just apathetic, nasty, and it was an awful experience.
00:59:26.000And, you know, Michael Malice said public schooling is one of the only places outside of prison or juvie where children experience violence.
00:59:36.000But it's, I mean, it's like a known thing, like schoolyard fight.
00:59:39.000And I'm thinking about how humans used to raise their kids on the farm together.
00:59:44.000The kids would be educated by mom for a little bit.
00:59:46.000Sometimes they're little local schoolhouses and the parents would do teaching.
00:59:50.000But you grew up on the farm, you learn from mom and dad.
00:59:53.000If you were the daughter, you learn from mom.
01:01:21.000There were other people that contributed to their learning and knowledge and wisdom.
01:01:25.000But I never sent them to a place where all of a sudden in their minds they're thinking, this government expert is the one that teaches me, and mom and dad just provide food, clothing, and shelter.
01:01:35.000So, therefore, when the teacher tells me something that contradicts with mom and dad, I go with the teacher because they're the expert, right?
01:02:05.000The first thing he's going to do is he's going to waddle over to a peanut left on the ground, a half peanut, and he's going to put it in his mouth, inhale it, and then just collapse.
01:02:11.000And the parents are going to be like, How did he get out?
01:03:49.000Because if he did that again, you just got to bill him for that.
01:03:51.000Yeah, you know, like talking about the birth rate of women and stuff, part of me is just there is a visceral anger that I have towards the political interests that have convinced women not to have children.
01:04:06.000Because I mean, like any, the thing, like what these young men miss out on because they were convinced not to have kids is like ripping one of the greatest experiences of life away from them and tricking them into thinking it was the right thing to do.
01:04:22.000As if, I'm going to be honest, as if being a 35 year old woman partying at the club and getting drunk is in any way near the joy of having a child.
01:04:49.000So, like, my youngest daughter, my youngest daughter, she was growing up.
01:04:52.000This is another thing I love about homeschools.0.61
01:04:54.000When she got into middle school and high school, we're not talking about the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell.
01:04:59.000We're like, hey, you probably need to be thinking about what do you want to do with your life and what sort of things do you want to advocate.
01:05:05.000And she goes, she's going through and she's like, you know, I think I really want to be a veterinarian.
01:05:35.000She goes, Well, she goes, It's going to cost me about $250,000, probably.
01:05:39.000It's going to be at least, at least minimum six years of school.
01:05:42.000That means I get out, I'm around, you know, 24, 25.
01:05:46.000She goes, Then I really got to be in practice because I got to be making money because I got to pay off $250,000 in student loans and all this other stuff.
01:06:19.000And I'm like, That all makes sense to me.
01:06:23.000And the thing is, is that if she were in a public school, I promise you, teachers, counselors, everyone would be lining her up to be like, no, Don't prioritize being a wife and mother.
01:06:38.000And people will tell me that that's hyperbolic.0.94
01:06:41.000Simone, back to Simone de Beauvoir, was in a debate, prominent feminist in the 70s, was in a debate.
01:06:46.000And she actually said, women should not be allowed to be wives and mothers because if we allowed that to be an option, too many of them would choose it and it would disrupt the revolution.
01:07:39.000So, really, there is no such thing as you can freeze your eggs and have it later because the success rate in vitro is single digits at 42 plus.
01:07:51.000If women have children at the traditional adult age, like mid, early, mid 20s, then by the time your kids, like your kids, you would know better than I.
01:08:02.000So, let's, for people out there who don't have kids, At what age do the children still need guidance, but they become largely self sufficient?
01:08:09.000When they get into like 11, 12, depending on maturity level, girls mature a little bit faster.
01:09:04.000The, what's, I know, is a real slacker, real disappointment, my Catholic father.0.87
01:09:09.000But, but yeah, it's one of those things where the more kids you have, the more they start to help one another and, you know, contribute and do all these things.
01:09:16.000And so you really become what a family unit is supposed to be.
01:09:20.000And family, there's a guy named Jeremy Pryor.
01:09:23.000He has this thing he does called family teams.
01:09:25.000And one of the big things he talks about is the Western concept of the family doesn't make a great deal of sense because it really is kind of a temporary structure.
01:09:33.000You find a girl, you get married, you have kids, you raise them early teens, you kick them out.
01:09:37.000And then by that, and when you have the kids, right, your entire life is the kids.1.00
01:09:41.000It's 14 soccer practices and ballet recitals and everything else.
01:09:44.000The marriage doesn't mean anything anymore.
01:09:45.000It's all about getting the kids in a good school.0.73
01:09:52.000By that time, you've fallen out of love with your wife, and you guys don't relate anymore because your whole life revolves around the kids, and then you golf and whatever.
01:10:00.000She drinks wine with her friends and complains about you.
01:10:03.000And he was saying, or imagine a world where on Sunday dinner, great grandpas and great grandmas at the end of the table, and little Billy and little Susie are at this side of the table, and you are watching four generations sit there and have a conversation, knowing what the roles they play through each generation looks like.
01:11:18.000And he's going to say, Well, press the button if you need us.
01:11:21.000And then she's going to sit there as she slowly dies, staring at the wall.
01:11:24.000Or if she had a family, She could be in the hospital and the doctor comes in with a chart, and her children and grandchildren are all there crying, scared.
01:11:33.000And she smiles and says, It's okay, everybody.
01:11:36.000I know that you'll carry on without me.
01:11:38.000And I lived my life the best I could, and all I needed was you.
01:11:41.000And then they're going to hug her and say goodbye, grandma.
01:11:44.000And then as she passes on with a smile on her face, it's still very sad.
01:11:48.000Maybe she's sick, maybe it's unpleasant, but she knows that as she leaves, everything she built is standing there before her to carry on her legacy.
01:12:03.000But I could not imagine a worse hell to impose on someone than sitting in a hospital.
01:12:09.000There's a, I can't remember what the story was from.
01:12:11.000It might have been like Donnie Darko, where he talks about how his dog, I think it was Donnie Darko, one day went missing and they couldn't find it.
01:12:19.000He went, yeah, I think pretty sure it's Donnie Darko.
01:12:20.000And then they found the dog head, went under the porch to die alone.
01:12:24.000And it's like, this is what people do.
01:12:25.000And I've always just thought that is like, that is.
01:12:29.000The most extreme torture I could think of.
01:12:33.000Sitting there, fading out, no one cares about you.
01:13:01.000I'm single and I almost feel a little bit blessed.
01:13:03.000Because I'm 38 and I don't have to deal with all the things that I see my friends struggling with, with kids and all these other things.
01:13:09.000And Jordan Peterson was just in typical Jordan Peterson form, very nice.
01:13:13.000He goes, Well, he goes, You know, you've had a very filling career.
01:13:15.000He goes, I've also had a filling and interesting career.
01:13:18.000And he goes, and that I'm sure that it's something that brings you a lot of joy and meaning.
01:13:24.000He goes, but I have found that the older I get, the more family relationships mean to me.
01:13:30.000And he talks about, and he basically talked about something very similar to you.
01:13:34.000And I think about this now as a man who is probably relatively soon going to be a grandfather.
01:13:40.000And I now get to go because when you have kids, you're, I mean, you were just running around trying to make everything work and the trains all run on time and your kids are fine and the whole deal.
01:14:43.000And Mickey is really saving her from that dragon.
01:14:46.000And the next day, she is just, she sees Mickey and it's like, you saved me.
01:14:51.000Like she, but you were just watching this most wholesome experience.
01:14:56.000As she's getting to see all of this, and I'm getting to see that I'm the observer to it, and it's like, man, that's an incredible experience.
01:15:04.000I mean, here I am like 20 years later saying, man, there was this one time at Disneyland.
01:15:10.000You know, I have a handful of friends, they're all middle aged and they're single with no kids.
01:15:14.000And, you know, a couple of my buddies are like, oh, I'm just feeling down, you know, like, I don't know, I'm bored, I don't know what I'm doing, and like, I've been depressed.
01:15:23.000And I said, yeah, it's because you're middle aged and you've got no family and no kids.
01:15:27.000And I put it like this, you know, when I was a young man, I wanted to see everything.
01:15:32.000And so I got jobs where I traveled around the world and I went to various countries and I went on crazy adventures and I witnessed history in some circumstances.
01:17:21.000It's really difficult in the modern society and culture.
01:17:24.000But I'm like, I think the reason why you guys are feeling listless, bored, depressed is because the human body is built for, at this point, you are expecting to be a grandparent and you haven't even had your first kid yet.
01:17:36.000So you're largely bored with all the stuff you've done.
01:17:38.000You've been to the bar now for the 8,000th time, you've pulled a slot lever for the 50,000th time, you've had your 50th.
01:17:47.000Normally, for human beings, you would have raised kids and now you'd be excited to see the next generation, your grandkids in your mid 40s.
01:17:55.000It's wild to think you'd be in your mid 40s, you'd be a grandparent.
01:18:56.000But I think the biggest crisis is the men have been lied about, women have been lied to, because you look at poor countries, they have a ton of kids.
01:19:23.000Really don't like about the Libertarian Party is they talk about liberty and they never talk about the corresponding responsibility because every liberty that you have, all freedoms that you enjoy come with a responsibility.
01:19:37.000And people don't talk about responsibility enough.
01:19:39.000We live in a society that wants to avoid responsibility as much as possible.
01:19:44.000But the thing that I specifically mean here, because 100% agree with that, my first career, my first career out of high school, afforded me the opportunity to know what it's like to think you're about to die.
01:19:58.000And in that moment, I was not thinking about my freedoms.
01:20:06.000I'm thinking about all the things that essentially take away my freedom, but in the best way possible because I have responsibilities to them, but they give me a sense that my faith gives me a sense of identity, purpose, and meaning that cannot be replaced with anything else.
01:22:44.000The people that are talking about violent revolution, which Hassan Piker doesn't specifically, well, he actually might have specifically said it at some point on his streams.
01:23:15.000Because that's how you would actually get the rest of society to not push back.
01:23:21.000If you can be violent, which was happening during the summer of the Black Lives Matter riots, they were allowed to be violent and the rest of society couldn't do anything back.0.83
01:23:33.000You looked at it, whether or not, you know, whether whoever it was, you look at the Proud Boys, right?0.85
01:23:37.000Regardless of what you feel about, regardless of what your opinion is on the Proud Boys, they were the pushback and the cops always went after them.
01:23:48.000And so then the normal people were like, you know, people that weren't engaging in either, you know, violence or trying to push back on it.
01:23:55.000They're like, well, it's clear what'll happen to me if I try to fight back.
01:24:02.000The guy that someone shot into his house and he shot at someone or something like that in somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, he got a, or no, I think he brandished a weapon.
01:24:11.000They were walking by and he brandished a weapon.
01:24:13.000And the police came and arrested him for brandishing a weapon at a protest.
01:24:39.000This is what happens when you have, again, you have a political elite that hates their own culture and country.
01:24:45.000You have a political elite that is, you have a police force that is more terrified of being called racist than anything else.
01:24:51.000And how many times do we got to see the?
01:24:54.000It's no longer a meme anymore, but how long do we got to see it where, again, you know, you'll have an immigrant trying to chop off somebody's head in the middle of the street, and the police seem more concerned with the people that tweet about it afterwards.
01:25:09.000And there's no question that if the same sort of people reached a critical mass in the United States, they would do it because they already do do it in the places for which they think they have enough control, like Minneapolis.0.64
01:26:07.000With right, like all these, these right, like, no, no, no, you can protest, you can yell, you can scream, you can be mad all day long, you can do whatever you want.
01:26:13.000The moment you start throwing bricks or burning down our city, yeah, right, we're not going to put up with that.
01:26:22.000Well, I mean, that's why the Rittenhouse situation was really ultimately the referendum on how we were to sort of operate in this situation because Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, they had the numbers, but Rittenhouse was effectively, I mean, I know there was other people in the area, but he was kind of the ultimate making an example out of him, right?
01:26:38.000That was the left attempting to make an example out of him because, again, if they were to.
01:26:42.000Be able to sort of make whatever he did unacceptable or beyond the pale or whatever, then to be open season on everyone.
01:26:49.000So, I mean, I kind of look back at that moment and Rittenhouse really was.
01:26:52.000That's why everything sort of centered around that.
01:26:54.000That's why the Rittenhouse case became the apex because that was ultimately the referendum on are we allowed to defend our communities or not?
01:27:03.000I mean, that was quite literally what the debate was about.
01:27:05.000Thankfully, we won and that bought us some time.
01:27:08.000To your point, you look over in the UK where the Henry Novak case is the ultimate.
01:27:12.000I mean, look, if you set a bunch of right wingers around and we're like, okay, what would be the most extreme, you know.
01:27:16.000Parody of the UK, it would be that in which, you know, fresh in everyone's, you know, a jog everyone's memory, quite literally was stabbed by a Sikh immigrant or child of immigrants.
01:27:28.000And then the immigrant's brother called the police and said he used a racial slur, Henry Novak's on the ground dying.
01:27:39.000I mean, quite literally, if we all sat around the table like, you know, a year ago and were like, let's parody the UK, let's think about something to prompt Grok.
01:28:10.000If we started seeing policing in the United States to the degree that they do in the UK, where they arrest people for social media, ain't nobody pulling a gun on a cop.
01:29:10.000There is an amazing amount of power that it gives you, not because you have to shoot someone, but just because the possibility exists.
01:29:17.000I mean, it's, and I want to point out, like, I understand what you're saying and you're not wrong, but you can look back as recently as I don't remember what year it was, but it was during the Obama administration, the Bureau from Land Management.
01:29:54.000And the reason I disagree is because you, like, and I know that people might, you know, maybe this sounds a little boomerish, but, like, if you look at the way, That the original revolution started.
01:30:06.000The rest of the colonies looked at what was going on in Massachusetts and said, This is unacceptable.
01:30:10.000They looked at Lexington and Concord and they said, This is unacceptable.0.98
01:30:14.000And the militias pushed back the Redcoats in Lexington and Concord, and then they got their asses handed to them in Bunker Hill.0.66
01:30:22.000And then the rest of the colonies started saying, Look, we need to take this actually seriously.0.76
01:30:27.000And it still took a long time to get the rest of the country to do it.
01:30:31.000And I agree, and I think I can kind of mend these points here together.
01:30:35.000I agree that we have, you know, the manpower, right?
01:30:38.000I'm not disagreeing that the American people are capable of conducting that sort of operation to this day.
01:30:43.000What I'm contesting is that we have the political elite in place to carry that out because what happened in the revolution is we had the Washington, we had the founding fathers ready to rock and roll.
01:30:52.000When I look at the GOP now, well, we got Trump and we got a few of his buddies.
01:31:17.000But everyone's like, well, when a civil war comes, then we'll really show them.
01:31:21.000And I'm like, dude, I don't know, man.
01:31:23.000The first time in my life, it used to be when people moved, they moved because they were retiring to a warmer climate or, you know, the job opportunity or whatever.
01:31:32.000I have never seen this much geographical, ideologically based geographical self sorting.
01:31:37.000In the United States, as I've seen in my lifetime.
01:31:40.000The other thing that I would say is this you want to know what the political lead is.
01:31:43.000It's not in the federal level, it's not in the states.
01:31:47.000So when you have, and I'll give you a perfect example of this.
01:31:50.000First of all, the left does it to the federal government all the time with things like marijuana legislation, right?
01:31:55.000Regardless of how you feel about it, that's them standing up to the federal government.
01:31:58.000But when you have the Biden administration, when Abbott goes down to the border and says, National Guard, Rangers, whatnot, we're putting up our own stuff, we're going to do this.
01:32:07.000The federal, The federal government sued in court, got the decision they wanted out of the Supreme Court that they actually had constitutional jurisdiction over the border and immigration.
01:32:15.000And Texas' response was like, move us.
01:32:18.000And what the federal government had to decide at that point is, how bad do we want to potentially get into an altercation over this issue at this time with state troops?
01:32:28.000So that's the Obama administration and the Texas, where it's.
01:32:34.000I guess what I'm just contesting is we shouldn't, and I'm not saying you guys are saying this, but some people in the audience feel this way, and conservatives broadly, we shouldn't.
01:32:41.000Rely on that because this is what happened in South Africa.
01:32:45.000And then they're like, all right, well, we'll all retreat into the Western Cape.
01:32:47.000The Western Cape, you know, talking about federalism, the Western Cape is well run.
01:32:50.000They have a party, you know, there's nine provinces in South Africa, eight are ran by the ANC, and Western Cape, it's ran by the DA.
01:32:57.000So they're like, okay, well, we have federal, we're okay.
01:32:59.000But once the federal, you know, once the federal government is out of, you know, it's out of control, right?
01:33:05.000Like we cannot, we can no longer impact what's happening with the South African federal government.
01:33:11.000It's kind of over because they can just send the military in.
01:33:14.000They can just send this, that, and the other.
01:33:15.000And so what I'm saying in the United States, Thankfully, we're not in that situation.0.61
01:33:51.000Like, there's no reason to blackpill.0.99
01:33:53.000I guess what I'm pushing back, maybe I was kind of speaking over everyone's heads, is I guess what I'm sort of attacking are these people that, Just think they can like build up a giant armory and then they're going.0.99
01:34:07.000Because you think you're by yourself doing anything, you're on crack.
01:34:10.000But no, I am not a black pillar at all.0.68
01:34:13.000And I'm not saying, I was just saying.
01:34:14.000Yeah, my big thing is like, look, guys, we still have the ability to actually push political power right now.
01:34:20.000You can't sit, like, nothing makes me more infuriated.
01:34:22.000As someone that loves Virginia and now no longer lives there, nothing makes me more infuriated than the fact that Winsome Sears had 300,000 fewer votes.
01:34:33.000Than Glenn Youngkin, because a bunch of Republicans in deep red areas of that state said, Oh, I'm just mad.
01:34:39.000They didn't do enough, and there's no difference between the parties.
01:34:45.000Now you've got an AG who says he wants the conservative families to have the tenant on him.
01:34:50.000To Nick's point, or that we were making earlier, it's just a matter of the fact that we are an armed citizenry, it does make it more dangerous and more difficult for the federal government to.
01:35:05.000Actually, come and kick in doors and exert its will.
01:35:09.000What do you think a Joe Biden presidency or, God help us, a Gavin Newsom or an AOC president would attempt to do if you didn't have 400 million guns?0.82
01:35:21.000And this is why I want to go back to my initial point I'm like, I agree, but also when you're talking about demographics, there's only so much guns due because the Californians were all armed and then they got flooded with the third world.
01:35:33.000And then suddenly they're out of contention forever.0.71
01:35:35.000It doesn't matter how many Republicans they're armed, Gavin Newsom can basically do whatever he wants to those people.
01:35:39.000And if the pressure cooker goes up high enough, they'll just leave.
01:35:42.000And so, again, because they can leave, because they can.
01:35:45.000But there's always this country is huge, there's always going to be places people can leave.
01:35:48.000And then once they're backed up against the corner, it doesn't matter, they're out of power forever.
01:35:51.000It's South Africa, where instead of us like going out and taking our country back, we'll probably just build walls with barbed wire on top and put solar panels on top.
01:35:59.000So, I agree that guns protect us from the excesses of like liberal power.
01:36:04.000Like the UK is in a worse situation, even though demographically they're better off than we are.
01:36:08.000People don't like to hear that's true.
01:36:10.000But the main reason the UK is worse off than us right now.
01:36:12.000Is because the citizens have a lot of tools at disposal, whether it is firearms, whether it be federalism.
01:36:17.000What I'm just contending is that we shouldn't rely on the fact that just because we're armed doesn't mean that the government will just wreck us and turn us into a state.
01:36:23.000We'll throw to the constitutional conversation we were having before.
01:36:27.000I was making the point that we effectively don't have a constitution.
01:36:29.000I think a good example is what we just watched with Hassan Piker.
01:36:32.000There is no unified American political body, it doesn't exist.
01:36:37.000And these are the people that will say, I believe in the constitution.0.99
01:36:41.000The moment they have power, they're going to kill you.0.90
01:36:45.000They are cheering and clapping for the death of Charlie Kirk.0.98
01:37:15.000It limits government power, which means it's a horrible thing to have.
01:37:19.000When they're in power, and it's a wonderful thing to refer to when they're not in power, and that's how they treat it.
01:37:25.000Now, again, the pushback I would give you on the idea that we don't have a constitution, we've never had a completely unified body politic.
01:37:55.000They wouldn't agree on who God was, but.
01:37:56.000That's true, too, because Jefferson was particularly interesting for that time.0.94
01:38:01.000But ultimately, the point is if you take Hassan Piker and put him next to any random moderate American, you're going to be like, this guy is a psychopath.0.54
01:38:53.000In fact, that's the thing that I think most of us are trying to, it is a rallying point, and it's one of the things that creates a distinction.
01:39:03.000It's one of the things that creates a distinction the sort of people that actually venerate our founders, that actually believe in a unique American culture and want to defend it, versus people like Hassan Piker, people like AOC, people like Bernie Sanders.
01:39:17.000These guys have zero love, zero love for the United States.
01:39:21.000And tens of millions of followers and voters, a third of the Democratic Party who want the Constitution abolished and replaced with the parliamentary system.
01:39:27.000That doesn't mean that I don't have a Constitution.
01:39:29.000It might mean that they don't care about it, but that's fine.
01:40:04.000But when it was ratified, they understood what it meant.
01:40:08.000The Constitution represented something that they may or may not have liked, but they agreed with this is what it means.
01:40:13.000But even then, there were disagreements.
01:40:15.000This is why you had Jefferson and Madison writing the Kentucky and Virginia resolutions, because they disagreed about things like Marbury versus Madison or Maryland versus McCullough and what was the extent of federal authority.
01:40:25.000The Alien and Sedition Act was actually a violation.
01:40:28.000And there was actually, with that, some people got arrested and that got overturned a few years later.
01:40:34.000My point is when they ratified the Constitution, the negotiating resulted in them saying, these are the rules that we will abide by, which of course did.
01:40:43.000Explicitly state there's judicial oversight, checks and balances, as well as amendments to the Constitution because these arguments will exist.
01:40:49.000But I'm saying they all worked under the constitutional umbrella, arguing with each other.
01:40:55.000We now have a third of the Democratic Party, this is representing what, 20 million people, that are saying, given the power, they will abolish the Constitution outright.0.79
01:41:04.000They are, as you pointed out, they're only using it to stay our hands, quoting the Constitution the way atheists quote the Bible.0.70
01:41:14.000There exists, there are two countries in the borders of one nation.
01:41:18.000There is the multicultural democracy and the constitutional republic.
01:41:21.000The constitutional republic of the United States has a constitution.0.99
01:41:25.000The multicultural democracy does not.1.00
01:41:28.000Within these borders, the people that occupy this space, vying for political power, the ability to control the military mechanisms and law enforcement, do not share a constitution.0.85
01:41:39.000And if you go back to the revolution, I mean, you made the point earlier that New York and South Carolina weren't necessarily aligned with the elite that were sort of conducting the American Revolution.
01:41:49.000I mean, yeah, like 50% of New York were loyalists at the time of the revolution.
01:41:53.000Additionally, People don't remember this or recall this.
01:41:58.000I mean, today, that would be a massive amount of people.
01:42:00.0005% of the United States at the time of the revolution left after the revolution and went to Canada or other British dominions because they quite literally disagreed with the framers of the Constitution.
01:42:10.000They said, We disagree with this entire thing.
01:42:16.000And so, again, like to the point, I think maybe to mend both positions here is like, even at the time, they did have these disagreements over how the Constitution was framed, if that was applicable to them.
01:42:26.000I guess what's different about this current iteration of people that are maybe sticking their thumb in the eye of the Constitution here is that they fundamentally aren't Westerners.
01:42:34.000They fundamentally disagree with the entire.
01:42:57.000And the American Civil War was a faction of states attempting to separate themselves from the Constitution itself.
01:43:05.000So I want to clarify this for most people because when people say Constitution, they're usually referring to the Bill of Rights.
01:43:09.000I'm talking about the literal first articles, talking about what Congress does, what the executive branch does.
01:43:13.000The Confederates were like, we no longer want to be a part of that outright.
01:43:17.000We are separating ourselves from this.0.85
01:43:19.000Right now in the United States, you have people like Zorhan Mamdani who explicitly defy it, say they will defy it, do whatever they want, and their ultimate goal is the abolition of it.
01:44:04.000At some point, I feel like this is almost engaging like a totem.
01:44:07.000Obviously, the Constitution itself is words on parchment at the National Archives.
01:44:12.000The authority behind it is to the degree that people believe it and that soldiers will fight for it and defend it and go follow lawful orders.
01:44:21.000That doesn't mean that people don't attempt to subvert it at times.
01:44:26.000So that's what I'm saying is like, I don't think the mere presence of the DSA means I don't have a Constitution anymore or the United States doesn't have a Constitution.
01:44:34.000I don't think it even means the United States doesn't have a problem.
01:44:36.000Because I can still appeal to the Constitution.0.54
01:44:39.000I can still appeal to the Constitution in order to rein in DSA excesses when they take place.
01:44:44.000Not in federal jurisdictions controlled by liberals.
01:44:48.000As we've already seen time and time again, when Trump does something purely.
01:44:54.000Obama, through executive order, and one could argue the president could do this, instructs immigration enforcement not to deport DACA, creating this de facto name.
01:45:19.000So, we in the Constitutional Republic abide by this document that we hold sacred, that has evolved in some ways, some ways we don't like, some ways we do.0.99
01:45:27.000And they are saying, you are stupid for following rules that we can break whenever we want.0.90
01:45:32.000So, my point ultimately is this obviously, there exists something we call the Constitution that is utilized in law, but it is only adhered to by those who believe in it.0.99
01:45:40.000And the communists who operate in many of these federal jurisdictions, the entire West Coast, for instance, don't live by those rules where they are.
01:45:48.000If you go to Seattle, you are under their communist interpretation.
01:46:33.000How would you believe they would interpret it?
01:46:35.000Oh, they're going to reinterpret the First Amendment to mean whatever they want.
01:46:37.000Or they're going to interpret it from the originalist text and say, the founding fathers did not believe the First Amendment allowed you to blaspheme explicitly.
01:46:47.000It was illegal to blaspheme at the time of the ratification of the First Amendment, and it wasn't until the 1950s, in fact.
01:46:53.000Yeah, it wasn't until the incorporation doctrine when all of a sudden the Bill of Rights applied as limitations to the state.
01:46:58.000They used to just be limitations on federal power, not state power.
01:47:01.000So they would, and I would argue that this is entirely in line with the Founding Fathers' vision say, no, blasphemy is not protected speech.
01:47:35.000This is the point I make about what it means to have a constitution.
01:47:38.000What constitutes your body of politics?
01:47:40.000We wrote ours down and we try to live by these rules.
01:47:43.000But when you look at what the Democrats and liberals are doing in these federal courts and what they're doing at the local level with police, they are not abiding by these rules.
01:47:50.000When you take a look at the supremacy clause, when you take a look at how the federal government was trying to enforce laws in Portland, what were they doing?
01:47:58.000The police were effectively helping the far left firebomb a federal building for three months.
01:48:03.000So I look at all this and I say, It's interesting because I was talking about marketing earlier today.
01:48:11.000And in the digital era, something has happened.
01:48:13.000And the real estate where our philosophies and our politics exist are no longer physical.
01:48:19.000They're now a hybrid between the physical and the digital.
01:48:22.000And so it used to just be who has the physical control of a space.
01:48:26.000Literally, you could walk in a building and be like, I'm the king now.0.98
01:48:28.000And people would be like, damn, he's the king now.
01:48:30.000Like, see, it's kind of weird if you think about it.0.85
01:48:33.000That doesn't exist anymore because of digital communications.
01:49:07.000They passed a law that if someone kidnaps a child for a sex change and brings them to Washington, they are legally protected For having done so.
01:49:14.000I mean, we can talk about all the unconstitutional, unlawful things that happen in all those places, and nothing is being done about it.0.53
01:49:20.000If the federal government tries to enforce immigration law, what do they do?
01:49:23.000The police back off and say, we will not provide.
01:49:25.000Let's talk about what happened in Chicago when that lady rammed the ICE vehicle.
01:49:29.000Local police refused to deploy to provide assistance.
01:49:33.000As far leftists showed up, shots were fired.
01:49:34.000I can't remember exactly how it went down.
01:49:37.000Okay, but the important part to remember here is that's not unconstitutional.
01:49:48.000But my point is just this is a snowflake and an avalanche.
01:49:51.000No, but I guess my point is that the important distinctions do need to be made with respect to jurisdiction.
01:49:57.000Now, I agree that any time that you have a local jurisdiction which obstructs federal law enforcement from doing their job, which I think clearly happened in Minneapolis and clearly happened in Portland and Seattle, you don't just do the whole like, well, you know, we're really upset about that.
01:50:10.000No, there should be federal prosecution because that's a violation of federal law.
01:50:13.000My point is not that local police should or should not do anything.
01:50:16.000My point is that in these states, they view the federal government as an invasive force.
01:50:22.000In his election, that he would use the weight of New York law enforcement, physical violence against the federal government to stop them from enforcing federal law.
01:50:31.000When you have the mayor in our largest city say the Constitution and the votes of the American people mean nothing, we will use physical force against them if we must.
01:50:41.000We are not talking about the same people anymore.
01:50:43.000We are not talking about a unified country that adheres to the same rules and laws.
01:50:47.000So, again, I'll stress of course, there is a Constitution that exists, it's physical, it's digital, we understand what it means.
01:50:53.000But I am saying we do not have a unified body politic.
01:50:58.000The founding fathers had a document they'd argue about.
01:51:02.000Zonerman Nani doesn't agree with that document's existence and cites it only to exploit you.
01:51:07.000And the moment they get a 51%, they will rip it to shreds unconstitutional.0.73
01:51:12.000So, okay, here's the part where I think we completely agree.0.62
01:51:15.000I agree with everything you just said about what they would do, provided that they attained power, and that they're still trying to do it within the constitutional system which currently exists.
01:51:28.000What I'm saying is that they are not doing everything that they wish they could do right now because there are still limitations with respect to what they can actually accomplish.
01:51:36.000Not related to the Constitution, related to their critical mass, the mass of population, and their ability to use force.
01:51:42.000But part of the problem is that they don't represent everybody.
01:51:45.000There are still enough people in this country that actually do believe in the Constitution that are willing to enforce it with violence, like legitimate uses of violence, in order to rein them in.
01:51:54.000Now, again, you and I do not agree on the fact that they don't revere it, they don't want it.
01:52:00.000They are merely using it as a process in order to attain power so that they can one day subvert it.
01:52:06.000I don't think that means the Constitution doesn't exist.
01:52:09.000I think what we do need to start recognizing is that we have a subversive element within this country, right, that has attained using our system political legitimacy.
01:52:19.000And the question is, what do you do about it?
01:52:21.000And the problem is, is that most conservatives' answer is, well, we'll just have to vote harder.
01:52:25.000And the point that a lot of us are trying to make is, ah, we may be getting to a point where that's not a sufficient remedy.
01:52:31.000And so the question is, if you do want to maintain, so like if you do want to maintain, we'll say the spirit of the United States Constitution, of the culture which informed it, if you do want to do that, the question is, how far are you willing to depart while not violating the core principles?
01:53:17.000But what's remarkable here, too, is even when we go through American history and reciting these examples, is they were simply arguing over the dissolution of the United States government or the United States as we understood it.
01:53:26.000The difference between them and what's currently existing on the left now is they're arguing for a complete dissolution of the American people writ large, as in the people, our heritage, et cetera.
01:53:35.000So while Lincoln was saying, you know, the very, you know, fabric of the United States government, maybe even the Constitution itself was under threat, et cetera, and he, Push, pulled, prodded.
01:53:44.000What's happening now is quite literally they want to wipe the American people off the face of the planet.
01:53:48.000And that's the fundamental difference between basically everything that happened for the 1960s and now.
01:53:52.000The Confederates were trying to break away.
01:54:23.000Like, like, wait a second, wait a second.
01:54:25.000Nobody in Seattle, and this is my point where they know the Constitution still has, nobody in Seattle has confiscated everyone's guns, right?
01:54:32.000They haven't closed all the churches down.
01:54:36.000Because if they did, if they did, it would be a clear violation of constitutionally protected rights, which would then be enforced or theoretically could be enforced.
01:54:44.000Well, we can make an argument about COVID and they did.
01:54:46.000Okay, but this is the problem with that too.0.92
01:54:50.000We all remember the early days of COVID, and there's a lot of things we could look at and be like, hey, that was garbage.
01:54:53.000I also remember the point where we didn't know if this thing was going to kill everybody.0.98
01:54:57.000And so you had states like Florida that have been like, you know what, we're not doing this crap anymore.0.98
01:55:08.000I'm not disagreeing with the finer point.
01:55:11.000I am saying that I don't think that means none of us have the only people that have a constitution are the ones that actually revere it.
01:55:17.000Constitutional authority can still be applied and is still applied.
01:55:20.000Maybe not to the degree that either you or I would be satisfied with, but it is still applied.
01:55:24.000I think the more important question here's the most important question to me.
01:55:28.000It's not this more nuanced debate on do we actually have a constitution, do we actually have a body politic.
01:55:33.000I think we absolutely 100% have a subversive element within our country, which has gained an incredible amount of power within our culturally shaping institutions, our political institutions.
01:55:43.000And the real question that we have to ask is does the constitution afford us the ability?
01:55:49.000To be able to deal with that internal threat.
01:55:53.000And that's the argument that we have to actually discuss.
01:55:56.000Because here's the question okay, great.
01:55:57.000If you acknowledge no, if you say no, now the question is okay, what measures do you want to do?
01:56:44.000If the federal government, Supreme Court ruled blanket, like literally right now, they said if you say ill or you deny Christ, that is a criminal act.
01:57:17.000So my point is let's say that there is no strong hyper centralized government, but a unified law enforcement apparatus that exists individually in various cities and states all agree anybody who blasphemes against Jesus Christ should be arrested.
01:57:28.000I think you could come up with something like that in a way that would not be authoritarian.
01:57:34.000Jews and Muslims would be like, this is authoritarianism, we're not living under a boot.0.99
01:57:38.000And there's a growing number of Muslims in this country.0.95
01:57:41.000But I also don't think that, like, I don't think we're sitting under any pressing threat right now that Christians are going to rise up, and that's their main priority is we want to make sure that's not the same thing.0.85
01:57:51.000My point ultimately is that authoritarianism is in the eye of the beholder and in the diversity of a population's politics.0.84
01:58:00.000If every single person in this country right now woke up and had an epiphany and became Orthodox Christians, There would be no authoritarianism if they banned blasphemy against Christ because they would all be like, but no one would.0.82
01:58:21.000I'm trying to connect the okay, we both acknowledge that there seems to be something that the Constitution theoretically didn't account for.
01:59:59.000They can go after a Chinese citizen.0.99
02:00:00.000Because they exist outside of our constitution.1.00
02:00:02.000As citizens in this country with private funding operating on our streets with vehicles, lights, and sirens, they run police departments, and their response is we're a private international affairs issue.
02:00:14.000And what they do is they go to people from China who live in America or descendants, and they can use the weight of threats against family in China to control them.0.95
02:00:23.000And we're just like, okay, these people clearly are operating in our country.0.89
02:00:26.000There's also Sharia patrols happening in places like Dearborn and other cities.0.63
02:00:30.000You actually have Jewish patrols happening in places like New York.0.93
02:00:35.000You have Muslims coming right out and saying you'll never be able to ban Sharia because of the First Amendment.0.98
02:00:51.000Well, the other thing that needs to be understood, and this is a big part of the argument, and I will see the classical liberals fighting with the post liberals and everything else, and I feel like so much of it is talking around one another.
02:01:13.000And the reason why is because it is great to have a First Amendment, a Second Amendment, a Third Amendment, it's great to have a constitutional order, but these things are built upon something.
02:01:23.000They're built upon shared beliefs and values.
02:01:25.000Adams himself said our Constitution was written for a moral and religious people and is totally unsuited to any other.
02:01:30.000Because you cannot completely contain or control a country or a body politic exclusively through law.
02:01:37.000There has to be something that actually unites those people and a shared set of actual values that will cause them to self regulate.
02:01:44.000And so, really, why the laws exist are to explain what happens when members of the body politic operate outside of the social order, which already keeps them in bounds.
02:02:43.000Okay, first of all, if the complaint is we have too many laws on the books that are meaningless and stupid and should be removed, fine.0.81
02:02:49.000But there was a time, I'm willing to bet, where cohabitation laws would have been enforced.0.87
02:02:53.000So, how would someone walking, someone who's never lived in Idaho before, go there and says, I don't know their gaming laws, I don't know if you can turn right on red.
02:03:34.000Was it because a couple of nobles got together and said, okay, I've decided these are the rules?
02:03:38.000No, what you had was a series of traditions.
02:03:41.000If you got an issue with the way I've described it, that's fine.
02:03:43.000But my point is when I say laws don't exist, I'm saying that when we say what is a law, and someone says it is a rule imposed on society through various means, some through democratic means, some through dictatorial or authoritarian, but it effectively describes what you can, typically what you cannot do and the penalty for such.
02:04:05.000What I mean is it like 70% of the laws are not really laws then because those things written down don't actually mean anything.
02:04:11.000So, my point is not that obviously laws get enforced, but the other issue is that sometimes there's enforcement against things that are not even laws.
02:04:19.000For example, often if so, we had a guy arrested for disorderly conduct for hate speech, and they say, but they do it all the time.
02:04:25.000Yeah, in these where it should be completely protected by the Constitution and there is no codified law, people have been arrested for hate speech and they don't say hate speech, they say disorderly conduct.
02:04:36.000Look at uh, uh, uh, uh, Shiloh Hendricks.
02:04:40.000A guy was filming her and she yelled at him a nasty word.0.82
02:05:00.000But the only thing I would say is okay, but that's not a demonstration of why laws don't exist.
02:05:04.000It's a demonstration that laws are what people choose them to be at any random point and the books don't exist.
02:05:09.000No, I don't even think it's what people choose at any random point because even then, like again, the police are not kicking in the door right now.
02:05:15.000But that's an exercise of volition and force.
02:05:17.000Okay, but the point that I'm making is unless you explain specifically what you mean, are there some laws?
02:05:23.000Which are bad laws that are not enforced?
02:05:25.000Are there some laws which remain on the books which people don't enforce?
02:05:28.000Are there other laws or are there other ways to interpret the law which law enforcement takes way too much leverage with in order to get the result that they want?
02:05:42.000So, what I'm trying to say when I say I don't think laws exist is I'm simplifying the idea that when someone says a thing like, we're going to write this thing down, typically only when they immediately do it is it followed.
02:05:55.000And then after a certain amount of time, it may or may not be.
02:06:13.000So, my point again is if a person moved for the first time to a state and said, again, you know, like I think in New York, you can't turn right on red.
02:06:21.000And so people from out of state don't know that.
02:06:38.000So if someone hits you, the police will not show up unless you can prove physical damage.
02:06:43.000So literally, you could be at a bar and a guy punches you in the stomach, and then people call the police and the cops are like, What happened?
02:07:27.000Because in the neighborhood he was working as a police officer, he knew the people there that were actual troublemakers, that were like literally hurting people.
02:07:36.000A 15 year old kid that joined a gang, not because he wanted to, but because he would get his ass beat, right, if he didn't wear the right colors when he went to school.0.95
02:07:44.000And so, do you want a law enforcement officer to be able to use discretion with respect to how rigorously the law is enforced?0.96
02:07:59.000So, for instance, I don't want necessarily both people going to jail for the rest of their life and having a criminal record.
02:08:05.000I might want law enforcement to be able to use some degree of discretion.0.63
02:08:09.000Because the bottom line is, if you also get a criminal record for something stupid when you're 14, right, that could put your life in a very, very different trajectory.0.91
02:08:16.000That works really well in a homogenous society.0.98
02:08:19.000It does not work well today when you have, in Minnesota, a woman being arrested for something that doesn't exist in codified law and is unconstitutional.
02:08:27.000That's my point when I talked about this whole idea of Christendom, or I talked about this whole idea upon what is the larger cultural thing that your country is built upon.
02:08:36.000And again, you don't need racial homogeneity, you do need cultural homogeneity.
02:08:42.000And the biggest problems that we, so it's not that the Constitution doesn't exist.
02:08:47.000What has happened is that for the first time in U.S. history, we have had massive multicultural, by design, multicultural infusion without proper assimilation.
02:08:58.000Well, we don't need to argue the semantics.
02:09:00.000My point is in Minnesota, a woman got arrested for something that wasn't a law and is constitutionally protected, and she was convicted, and she's going to serve a penalty for it.
02:09:09.000There's no constitutional protection that she'll try to appeal, and then you're asking for federal intervention, which may come.
02:09:14.000But as a state, Minnesota is clearly operating outside the confines of codified law and the Constitution.
02:10:40.000So I actually did enjoy that when he goes to the guy and he's like, Let me guess, you need my help, because he's a Greenlander, you need my help.
02:12:04.000But you know, there's this really great meme where someone said if you think about the perspective of a dog, we are these beings that live for several lifetimes with incomprehensible abilities and powers.
02:12:19.000It's almost like we're elves and they are the humans living among us.
02:12:23.000So just remember that your dog gets to live the greatest life imaginable.
02:12:28.000And they look up to you as some sort of powerful, long lived being that they revere.
02:12:34.000That's why they get hyped up when you like stand up.
02:12:53.000Sergeant Stoic says on the topic of infighting in the U.S. in the near future, Nick, do you see our national infrastructure being slowly and intentionally degraded, however possible, set up for a land invasion?
02:13:04.000CA or California, Oregon, Washington, I sure do.
02:13:10.000I don't think there's any way, any sort of major strategic threat to the United States.
02:13:14.000Pulls off a land invasion in the United States.
02:14:36.000You can follow me at Carter Banks everywhere, at Carter Banks Official everywhere else, and YouTube at Trash House Records for the label.0.99
02:14:43.000Yeah, Tate's got the total Chud victory today, huh?0.99
02:17:47.000What does it actually take to turn grassroots enthusiasm and the righteous intonation a lot of us feel into enough public pressure that the people in power actually pay attention?
02:17:55.000For ordinary people who believe Sowell deserves this recognition, what should we do right now to make that happen?
02:18:02.000You know, that's an interesting question.
02:18:03.000I mean, different people do petitions and things like that.
02:18:06.000I think there's a lot of, if you actually have a relationship with your, your, Representative, that's actually a good way to do it as well.
02:18:14.000I'm actually not going to confirm or deny whether or not I'll be in the White House later this week.
02:18:18.000And I will absolutely be bringing this up because, yeah, a big part of it is use the influence you have with the people that actually have access to power to actually push something that you actually want done.
02:18:29.000And on something like this, it's fairly simple, right?
02:18:31.000I don't see any conceivable reason why Thomas Sowell should not be awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, except for the fact that he might not want it.
02:18:39.000But other than that, I think the rest of us think he deserves it.
02:18:41.000And so, That's what I will be doing I'll try to be using whatever influence I have to be able to push it.
02:18:47.000And everyone else should do the same, especially if you have influence with somebody that has, you know, kind of closer access to the people that actually make the decision.
02:18:54.000Can Pat Buchanan get a petition as well?
02:19:52.000I've really been trying to get this out there.
02:19:54.000And it's funny because the post I'm actually planning on doing an update post tomorrow is talking about an article that says why Seoul should not get mental freedom.0.99
02:20:03.000And I make the case, too, why I agree.0.74
02:20:05.000Because the petition was more to get his ideas out there because I really didn't think he would accept it, which evidence shows he would not.
02:20:56.000Well, and I will say this too I don't want just Thomas Soule to get it for his sake.
02:21:01.000I want to get it because I think a man that has been that influential and that important to not just discussing these ideas, but making them so accessible.
02:21:09.000I can't tell you how influential my kids will all tell you right now hey, if there's one person that daddy really, really wants to meet, they'd all be like, it's Thomas Soul.
02:21:23.000Yeah, I just want a quick shout out to my friends at the World Library Association because they're working their butts off to restore school libraries with appropriate educational materials.
02:22:19.000But basically, we know China is sending tons of compromised electronics and apps and all kinds of stuff to us.0.98
02:22:27.000And they're stealing everything they can get their tiny little yellow demon fingers on.0.60
02:22:34.000But most people don't really consider what information is actually being stolen.
02:22:37.000They just think, Advertising or what sites you visit, but it could also be usernames, logins, everything in your autofill on your browsers, passwords, emails, all that stuff.
02:22:49.000And so, my theory is what they would do when they're ready to actually cripple the entire West is just take all that information from maybe 100 million Americans, pretty much every way they access, any way that anything on the anything that their online presence they would just dump it all online.
02:23:07.000And I would send the entire West into a panic because everyone tries to access all of their services all at once.
02:23:13.000Uh, banking, um, accounts, streaming, pretty much everything that they have that needs an account, and all the services immediately go down because everyone's trying to access them.
02:23:24.000But you know, and you can imagine what that does to the economy, yeah.
02:23:30.000So, I think that cybersecurity is a obviously it's a massive threat because look, there's there are millions of Americans out there whose password is password, still, I guarantee it, you know, or like they just put their.
02:23:45.000They'll put their finger on the H key and slide it over to the open quotes key, and that's their password.
02:23:59.000So, when it comes to cybersecurity and you're dealing with normal people, which most of us are, you're going to have tons and tons of vulnerabilities.
02:24:13.000The bright side is there's going to be AI.
02:24:18.000Capable of hacking into most things very soon.
02:24:27.000I had some legislation on this when I served on the communications innovation technology thing in Virginia.
02:24:35.000And they were bringing more data centers into Virginia.
02:24:37.000And one of the things I was worried about was Chinese tech because China does not, I do not think China presents a significant military threat to the United States.
02:24:45.000However, so much of their technology is already in our telecommunications system.
02:24:49.000And to your point, The corporate espionage piece, the hacking of all the passwords.
02:24:55.000I don't think they do this as some sort of like first strike to cripple the United States.
02:25:03.000Because, again, it's one of those things where, to the extent that you try to damage the United States, we can actually deliver a whole lot of damage back.
02:25:13.000But you can definitely entice U.S. foreign policy to think differently about something if it's not that big a deal to us, if that makes sense.0.92
02:25:22.000So, I have no doubt that the asymmetric strategy of the Chinese is to go through our telegoms, to go through cyber warfare.0.85
02:25:30.000So, essentially, the scenario that you dropped, I think, is a very relevant one.0.97
02:25:37.000I don't know if it's first strike in anticipation of launching some sort of military strike.
02:25:41.000I think it's far more effective for them to use it as a - it's kind of like an unspoken threat during negotiations for things.
02:27:26.000In regards to the investigation of Ilya and Omar, If memory serves me correct, my understanding is that her naturalization was in question because she supposedly came over here as a minor at 17 years old with her father.
02:27:43.000And then reports came out that they lied about her age, that she was already 18, a legal adult, and not eligible to get in free admission with her dad.
02:28:26.000In order to be able to use it in court, they would have to be able to come up with some sort of records to be able to demonstrate that she wasn't actually 18 or she wasn't actually 17 at the time.
02:28:34.000I think that's probably going to be very difficult.
02:28:35.000Yeah, it's not like Somalia has great record keeping.1.00
02:28:39.000They suck at everything else, but the record keeping was just impeccable.1.00
02:28:46.000Yeah, we don't have a whole lot of information about what is actually being, you know, what's being investigated or whatever, but fingers crossed.
02:28:56.000Well, I remember the, you know, I was talking about that the investigation having possibly to do with the cause of the fact of her marrying her brother to help him get in and, or to get him to get his naturalization.
02:29:14.000And that's part of what she could have been investigated for.
02:30:57.000It's obvious that the wholesale pushing of pushing and enrollment into colleges has not only sparked a lot of communist sympathies, but also has heavily devalued and decreased the faith of our country, both religious and in the sense of patriotism.
02:31:21.000What can we do to counter this loss of faith?
02:31:28.000I mean, for faith, I would just say that.
02:31:31.000One of the surest ways that you can actually transfer your faith over to your children is to take seriously their education.
02:31:37.000Lila Rose, I think we all know her, she had this one thing.
02:31:40.000She goes, You should be more concerned about your kids going to heaven than Harvard.
02:31:44.000I thought it was funny that they had Sean Duffy on and they were talking about not wanting their daughter to go to Harvard because of the values there.
02:31:51.000And everyone was like, Oh my gosh, why would you do that?
02:31:52.000I'm like, Yeah, pretty much every conservative feels this way about Harvard at this point.
02:31:57.000I think there's a couple of things to think about.
02:31:59.000One is, like, on a political side, I still to this day, I used to vote against budgets all the time and it would piss off my colleagues.
02:32:06.000But one of the reasons I would vote no, and I'm like, I don't understand why we are stealing money.
02:32:11.000From conservatives in order to give it to universities sitting on $15 billion endowments to turn their kids into ungrateful communists.
02:32:18.000You know, I don't understand why we do that.
02:32:21.000So I do think that there actually should be an active pressure to defund a lot of these institutions of higher education, which are actually sources of a lot of the subversion that we were talking about earlier.
02:32:32.000The other thing, too, is just how you educate and prepare your kids to go into this stuff is absolutely critical.
02:32:38.000I have one daughter that's going to community college.
02:32:40.000My son went into the military and wants to go into the trades because he wants to actually make money instead of accrue college debt.
02:32:46.000And then my oldest daughter is married now and chose a different profession, which didn't require a college degree.
02:32:53.000So, what I would say is that as you are raising your kid politically, push for politicians that are actually going to defund some of these institutions.
02:33:03.000Personally, raise your kids to actually understand their faith.0.79
02:33:06.000A big problem that I will talk to Christian parents about when they're like, I don't know what happened when my kid went to college.1.00
02:33:11.000And then I'll ask them about how they talked about their faith.1.00
02:33:13.000And I say, okay, well, you didn't teach your kid your faith, you taught your kids an authority structure.
02:33:18.000And that worked out fine when you were the main authority in their lives.
02:33:20.000But the moment that they weren't, you didn't actually equip your kids to understand their faith or to properly or effectively argue for it or live it out.
02:33:27.000So when you do do that, it's amazing how resilient your faith is to your kids because it becomes their own instead of something that you just believe.
02:33:34.000But transferring your faith to your child is an important part and one of the primary functions that you should play as a parent.
02:33:40.000And then adequately prepare them to be able to go into hostile environments.
02:33:43.000And then also sit down with your kids and just ask the important question Do you need to go to college in order to do what you want to do in life?
02:33:57.000Because this myth that you have to go to college in order to have a productive or economically viable career just isn't the truth.
02:34:05.000And so, those are some of the things that I would recommend, both from the political side and as a parent's side, on how to either avoid that or turn your kids into the sort of people that can go in there and hold their own in a difficult conversation.
02:34:19.000Either way, you should always teach your kids how to hold their own in a difficult conversation with respect to their faith.
02:34:41.000One, you live it out because your most important testimony is what you actually do with your life.
02:34:45.000If you say you believe one thing and then you constantly violate it in front of your kids, they're going to get the idea that you don't really believe it.
02:34:51.000Two, you actually teach them about it and then you allow them to ask difficult questions and you engage with those questions.
02:34:59.000A third thing that you do is you start when your kids get a little bit older.
02:35:03.000Like, whenever my kids would regurgitate something that I knew they heard from me, but they probably didn't completely understand, I would immediately take something of an antagonist position.
02:35:11.000I would make them defend it because at the same time that I was teaching them their faith, I was teaching them critical thinking.0.74
02:35:16.000Because I don't believe in Christianity because it's convenient, I believe in it because I think it's true.
02:35:21.000And so I had to go through my own process of testing my faith.0.96
02:35:23.000And so that helped me prepare myself to both challenge my kids and teach them how to think about things and to include their faith critically.
02:35:31.000The fourth thing that you can do is absolutely essential when your kids get to a certain age where they see you doing something that you told them not to do because of their faith, because of the morality, the objective morality that you've taught them, you have to be able to humble yourself and be able to admit to your kids, you know what?
02:35:50.000Because one of the things that solidifies in your child's mind is if the moment they catch you doing something contrary to what you've taught them, you just say, well, you know, I'm in charge.
02:36:08.000It's not about what's actually right or wrong.
02:36:10.000But the moment you actually signify to your kids that, you know what, I'm sorry, you are right.
02:36:15.000And I want to congratulate you for having the courage to come and respectfully call me on this, it solidifies in their mind that these things are true because they're objective.
02:36:23.000It's not just a question of who has authority.
02:36:26.000And that's a kid that's far more likely to go into a hostile environment and say, no, no, no, I know what I believe.
02:36:30.000I know what I believe because I believe it not just spiritually, but emotionally.
02:36:35.000I've seen it play out in my own life, and it's the sort of thing that I want to replicate and build.
02:36:40.000I always say the greatest compliment that any of my kids gave to me and my wife is that when you ask them what they want to do, they will say, I want to get married, I want to have kids, I want to homeschool them, and I want to raise them in the faith.
02:36:51.000That's the greatest compliment they can give a parent because what they're basically saying is, the values you taught me, dad, mom, you guys lived them out in such a way and created an environment in such a way that I want to replicate it for my own children.
02:37:00.000And that's something that they'll defend.
02:37:48.000And then a final shout out, and this is actually kind of where this question came from.
02:37:55.000Today I was part of an on campus Bible study for a fairly large campus in Buffalo, and I think we had 160 people sitting down to read and study the Bible.
