On this week's show, we discuss a major scandal involving Somali immigrants in the U.S. immigration system, a new report from the Justice Department alleging that the Department of Justice may have been involved in a massive fraud scheme involving millions of dollars in stolen funds from the Somali community, and more.
00:03:41.000And of course, because this enters the news, Donald Trump then says Tim Waltz is a retard, and then they get mad and they're like, How dare you say naughty words?
00:03:50.000Interestingly, however, a new study was done.
00:03:54.000It's an internal study from Democrats where they find that nobody trusts them on any important issues.
00:04:00.000And in the past 12 years, they shifted away from all of the core issues of the working class in this country towards identity issues for fringe groups.
00:04:10.000I don't know how they'll fare well in the midterms.
00:04:14.000Though the prediction markets say they're going to win, it's kind of shocking data.
00:04:27.000And then over the break, there was a video I had done on these billboards that have been popping up for the past several months calling on the military to defy the chain of command and effectively sowing discord and disloyalty in the military, which is an overt crime under 18 USC 2387.
00:04:46.000The website actually instructs our servicemen and women on how to use encrypted communications.
00:04:51.000I believe it's very obvious the reason they're doing this is so that these servicemen and women, when they communicate, there's an expectation they're going to be incriminating themselves, breaking the law, or the individuals communicating with them maybe breaking the law.
00:05:03.000So as Mark Kelly and the rest of these Democrats doubled down on claiming Trump's, they're not going so far as saying he's actually doing illegal things.
00:05:12.000They're saying, I think they should question these.
00:05:13.000And Mark Kelly actually said that any serviceman or woman can just tell if they're illegal or not.
00:05:35.000They got the former director of the NSA sitting on their board right now, Edward Snowden, called this a willful calculated betrayal of the rights of every person on earth.
00:05:42.000I'm not going to name this device, but your Amazon device listens to you and recommends products based on your conversations.
00:05:48.000How many of you have been just chatting on an app and then all of a sudden you'll get a video pop-up or an advertisement pop-up?
00:05:56.000The creepiest thing for me was that I went to Walmart a few years ago and I swear it literally showed me a picture from the Walmart I was in of the TVs I was looking at.

00:09:23.000We're going to start with this big story that you may have seen over the break.
00:09:27.000This is from the New York Times, how fraud swamped Minnesota's social services system on Tim Waltz's watch.
00:09:34.000Prosecutors say members of the Somali diaspora, a group with growing political power, were largely responsible.
00:09:41.000President Trump has drawn national attention to the scandal amid his crack on immigration.
00:09:46.000They say federal prosecutors charge dozens of people with felonies, accusing them of stealing hundreds of millions of dollars from a government program meant to keep children fed during the COVID-19 pandemic.
00:09:57.000At first, many in the state saw the case as a one-off abuse during a health emergency, but as new schemes targeting the state's generous safety net programs came to light, state and federal officials began to grapple with a jarring reality.
00:10:09.000And then we had this drop from Secretary Sean Duffy, who says, just one day after 400 brave employees from Minnesota DHS exposed massive fraud, U.S. DOT has discovered that one-third of non-domiciled CDLs were issued illegally in the state.
00:10:24.000Minnesota-year-on notice, you have 30 days to fix this or lose $30 million in federal funding.
00:10:34.000We're hearing these accusations that the Somali diaspora was stealing hundreds of millions of dollars.
00:10:41.000Well, I am shocked, I tell you, shocked to find that people who aren't from here, who don't care about our traditions, who are here often, many of them illegally or through chain migration, would steal money from hardworking Americans and steal the inheritance of the younger generations.
00:11:00.000I've been having conversations with a lot of people about multiculturalism, about the state of the economy and why it's going on.
00:11:08.000And I put up a video today at 2 p.m. about brutalism and how everything got so ugly, which is really interesting.
00:11:14.000But I think the main issue that we are seeing at the thinnest layer of, or I should say a large root cause of all the conflict and crisis, multiculturalism, and the fracturing of American culture in general among other American groups.
00:11:31.000But the easiest way to put it is this.
00:11:38.000He said, why is it that you have these beautiful lampposts near the River Thames, and then just, you know, a block away, they're just black, boring sticks?
00:11:47.000And he gives his reasons, but my reason is that when you have traditions and you have a group of people who all agree this is beautiful, let's do this, things get done.
00:11:56.000But let's say you bring in 50% Somali migrants.
00:11:59.000They're going to say, we don't want that.
00:12:12.000Ilhan Omar said she was a congressional representative for Somalia.
00:12:17.000And so these people are looking at it like I'm here for myself and my community and you aren't.
00:12:24.000A viral post recently, which is probably very old, I might add.
00:12:28.000A viral post has been going around where it was someone claiming that they were a Chinese national in the U.S. on a student visa and they racked up $100,000 in credit card debt and then returned back to China and they said, for the glory of China, I have taken as much as I can from the American empire.
00:12:47.000They were encouraging Chinese students who Trump is going to give these visas to to come rack up massive debt, purchasing products on credit cards, and then leave with it all so they retain that wealth in China where they can never be prosecuted and no suits can be served.
00:13:03.000This is what we're seeing as, unfortunately, the Democrats, the Biden administration let in 10 plus million non-citizens and American culture is falling apart.
00:13:14.000People used to come here to be a part of America and to promote being American, become American.
00:13:19.000And now people come here to leech off the system and they see stuff like this.
00:13:24.000It's like turning the whole country into a game show, you know, into like winning a lottery and just leaching off of it.
00:13:49.000I think that, you know, my position on people that are here illegally and people that are here legally, like if you are not here for the betterment of the United States, you shouldn't be here.
00:14:02.000There was a video going around from the whatever podcast of a girl from Colombia.
00:14:24.000People that come here and that were in the riots earlier this year, if they were waving Mexican flags, if they're a new citizen, if they came here and immigrated here and they're out there waving American flags, strip them of their citizenship and send them away.
00:14:39.000The woman from Colombia, strip her of her citizenship and send her back.
00:14:43.000Yes, you are not here because you care about the United States and the fundamental principles that the United States is founded on.
00:16:05.000We've seen this with our federal level politicians too.
00:16:07.000One of the most annoying things is when you'll see someone run for Congress and they'll be like, if you vote for me, I'll clean up this town.
00:16:13.000You're going to go vote on federal funding and budgets representing your city.
00:16:17.000It's the local reps who are going to clean up this town.
00:16:19.000It's your mayor who's going to clean up the town.
00:16:20.000But they all run on the pure ignorance and apathy of the American people.
00:16:26.000And then you end up with enclaves like in Minnesota with Ilhan Omar that are basically just saying to themselves, how can we rip as much value from these morons as possible?
00:16:36.000I think this is indicative of the failure of the project of assimilation in our country is.
00:16:41.000And I think there's a serious reckoning among Americans who feel as though immigrants are coming to this country, even sometimes legally, but particularly illegally.
00:16:51.000And when they went through the process and did things the right way, it feels like it's a spin in the face to them.
00:16:55.000I think Stephen Miller put it quite succinctly when he quote tweeted something in regard to the Afghan refugee who murdered one West Virginia National Guard and seriously wounded another in the past Wednesday, I believe it was.
00:17:08.000But Stephen Miller tweeted out, this is a great lie of mass migration.
00:17:11.000You are not just importing individuals, you are importing societies.
00:17:14.000No magic transformation occurs when failed states cross borders.
00:17:18.000At scale, migrants and their descendants recreate the conditions and terrors of their broken homelands.
00:17:23.000That is to say that if you import the third world, you become the third world.
00:17:28.000And there's a serious reckoning in our country right now in realizing that.
00:17:31.000Yeah, I mean, the people are not just cogs, right?
00:17:35.000Like the people that are in the United States that do jobs here, they're not replaceable with just another person.
00:17:42.000That's part of the reason why we should end all H-1B visas.
00:17:45.000We don't need to have people coming in just to fill positions because some big corporation can pay them less or what have you.
00:17:55.000The people that are here, the Americans that are here, are America and they're connected to this place.
00:18:41.000And to try it here is only to the detriment of the American people.
00:18:46.000The other problem is there's a large population in this country that are citizens that have no loyalty to this country and actually see this as a good.
00:18:56.000They care more about other countries, other foreigners, than they do about our own citizens.
00:19:00.000Well, this is a major constituency of the Democrat Party, particularly in Minnesota.
00:19:05.000So they have to virtue signal to them.
00:19:06.000They have to grease up their hands, per se, to get their votes and to get their support.
00:19:12.000Because otherwise, who knows, they might flip.
00:19:15.000You know, I just got to get as conspiratorial as I can on all of this stuff.
00:19:19.000And I'm just, I'm not convinced that I would say part of me thinks this is all a distraction from the smallest to the biggest.
00:19:28.000But distraction, maybe isn't the right word, intentional failure.
00:19:33.000Or if I want to get away from the conspiratorial, I would say it's emergent failure.
00:19:40.000The technologies that we have built, the masturbatory video games and OnlyFans industry and all of this has created humans who are incapable of sustaining themselves.
00:19:53.000At the same time, the technological advancement has gotten to the point where AI is basically in the background as a bigger priority.
00:19:59.000And the end result of all of this, I'm just thinking about where do we go as everything breaks down.
00:20:04.000And the conversation over multiculturalism brings us right to the conversation of AI, where everybody starts watching their own mini universes of content.
00:20:16.000The stories we tell each other and our society tells to its children is the culture that we build.
00:20:22.000So when you have five TV networks and they're all telling the same stories and everyone hears those stories, their worldview is built upon those stories.
00:20:29.000Now you've just got people picking and choosing whatever garbage they want, influencers, young people desperate to try and find a way to make any kind of money, thinking that's their path.
00:20:38.000And we're drifting towards like granular culturalism where multiculturalism is an understatement.
00:20:47.000Let's just call it static or random culturalism where every individual has a completely different worldview and they all hate each other.
00:20:58.000And the planet is just a bunch of gray blocks everywhere with water being pumped into them as robots build more and more and then launch shuttles to go do that on other planets as well.
00:22:05.000And I'm not the first person to say it.
00:22:06.000So when I look at what's causing this, it is this view of we can have a multicultural society where you can have dearborn Michigan with de facto Sharia law running in the background and female genital mutilation.
00:22:20.000And you can have the Somali community, but everyone's just stealing from the pot until there's nothing left in the pot.
00:22:26.000Well, everyone's going to live in an isolated personal algorithmic world where what they think is true is different from literally the person five feet away from them until there is no voting.
00:22:38.000There is no lowest common, or the lowest common denominator is going to be that we eat food, I guess.
00:22:43.000In like 2016, when we were talking about factions of people being in their bubbles, those seem like two or three big bubbles.
00:22:49.000But now it seems like everyone's going to have their own bubble.
00:22:51.000Everyone's going to be stuck in their own silo, their own like kaleidoscope of information that will be in direct conflict of everyone else's.
00:23:10.000Do they actually have the audio in this video right here?
00:23:28.000I think there's something wrong with it.
00:23:29.000Anybody that would do what he did, anybody that would allow these people into the state and pay billions of dollars out to Somalia.
00:23:38.000We give billions of dollars to somebody.
00:23:40.000It's not even a country because it doesn't function like it mentioned.
00:23:43.000It's got a name, but it doesn't function like it mentioned.
00:23:47.000President Trump has defended calling Democratic Minnesota Governor Tim Waltz seriously retarded.
00:23:52.000You know, I'm really, I'm really offended by people who get offended by the word retarded because retarded is the politically correct term.
00:24:51.000I don't literally, well, actually, I was going to say, I don't literally think he's brain damaged, but to be fair, it's not a fair statement for me to say.
00:26:12.000I'm giving a shout out to Family Guy because they did a great bit about this where Peter Griffin gets diagnosed as being mentally retarded.
00:26:19.000So then he goes into a woman's bathroom and then he opens the stall door and the woman screams and goes, I'm retarded.
00:26:24.000And she goes, oh, you're just curious.
00:26:26.000Like all offense is forgiven because you just don't know better.
00:26:30.000The idea that we would just absolve someone of their intention because we think their brain is not working properly, I do not give that benefit to these people who are extracting our country.
00:26:41.000Look at the contrast between Governor Newsom.
00:26:49.000The original context, just so we have it here, is in a truth social post, the president said, Somalian gangs are roving the streets looking for prey as our wonderful people stay locked in their apartments and houses, hoping against hope that they will be left alone.
00:27:01.000The seriously retarded governor of Minnesota, Tim Waltz, does nothing either through fear, incompetence, or both.
00:27:07.000And of course, while the worst congresswoman, Ilhan Omar, in our country, always wrapped in her swaddling hijab and who probably came in the USA illegally and that you are not allowed to marry your brother, does nothing but hatefully complain about our country.
00:27:22.000Should we denaturalize and deport Ilhan Omar?
00:27:26.000Especially if the allegations that she committed visa fraud by illegally marrying her brother, then definitely it seems like there's grounds to denaturalize and deport.
00:27:35.000Whatever reason we can present, if someone has been found to break the law in some fashion, denaturalized deport, particularly people that hate America, hate the country.
00:27:48.000If she considers herself a representative of Somalia in the Congress, then she shouldn't be in Congress.
00:27:55.000That's a simple, simple statement, in my opinion.
00:30:36.000I think that we are seeing the digitization, I guess.
00:30:42.000We had an analog culture that meant it was a bell curve.
00:30:47.000There was the mainstream culture and then the fringes, but now it's becoming just digital blocks where they're completely isolated communities from each other because they found each other online and they're entrenching themselves.
00:30:58.000A good example of this is, what is it called?
00:31:25.000So now people are only really concerned about whether or not they're offending someone they may see in the future where it matters for them in their hobby or their community, not in any kind of physical meaning.
00:31:38.000Like no one even knows their neighbors anymore.
00:31:41.000You know, like you live in the suburbs and it's like, when was the last time you went knocked on your neighbor's door and said, hey, how's it going?
00:31:46.000It is funny, though, when you show up to a rap concert, everyone in the crowd is dropping N-bombs along with Ghostface, as I have done.
00:32:43.000And for a long time, we kind of ignored that difference.
00:32:47.000Like the guy that was a CEO that was talking about using the word, he was saying this word is, you know, this word is not allowed to be used.
00:35:51.000Okay, so let's start over on that one.
00:35:54.000West Virginia governor gives update on the guardsman injured in the D.C. shooting.
00:35:58.000As most of you know, a young woman was murdered by what we believe to be an Islamic terrorist as of now.
00:36:04.000The reporting is that this man yelled Alahu Akbar, grabbed a brought a revolver, shot a young woman in the head, I believe in the head, killing her, and then opened fight another young man.
00:36:14.000These individuals, I believe this particular individual, this is Andrew Wolfe.
00:36:20.000This is U.S. Air Force Staff Sergeant Andrew Wolfe.
00:36:23.000He remains in serious condition after being shot while deployed to D.C. as part of Donald Trump's federalized crime fighting initiative.
00:36:30.000Governor Morrissey said Wolf responded to a nurse's question with a thumbs up and was able to wiggle his toes, signals that he said offered hope for his recovery.
00:36:39.000I can also offer as a bit of just, I suppose it's local hearsay, but for those that aren't familiar, I don't know about Sarah Bextrom.
00:36:47.000I believe that she was actually from central West Virginia.
00:36:51.000My condolences to the families is a nightmarish scenario.
00:36:54.000I don't know if she was stationed out here.
00:36:56.000I believe she may have been with the Air Guard.
00:36:59.000This is Air Guard, U.S. Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom.
00:37:02.000But I do know that Andrew Wolf was a local right by us.
00:37:06.000We're in the eastern panhandle of West Virginia.
00:37:07.000It's about an hour, hour and a half from D.C.
00:37:09.000And someone came up to me over the break, I think this weekend, and thanked me and said, look, just, you know, for all of us in the community, thank you.
00:37:18.000And I said, no, don't, look, I'm just, you know, a guy on the internet.
00:37:51.000And what's sickening is that the response from liberals and Democrats was that it's the fault of Trump for deploying the National Guard, which is stupid because the National Guard get deployed for patrol in America.
00:38:03.000The problem is an Afghan national who hates this country decided to go murder some National Guard.
00:38:10.000And I also find it strange that it happened just after Democrats claimed that these were fascist, dictatorial, despot moves, that the National Guard were moments away from shooting and killing American citizens.
00:38:21.000So now you have somebody from Afghanistan.
00:38:41.000The thing that I kind of picked up from the whole response from Democrats, it reminds me of back in the day when people used to say, you know, well, she wouldn't have been raped if she hadn't been wearing that short skirt or if she hadn't gotten drunk.
00:38:57.000It's the fault of the person that carries out the action.
00:39:01.000It's not Donald Trump's fault for putting the National Guard in D.C.
00:39:05.000It's not the National Guardsman's fault for joining the National Guard and supporting a tyrant or what have you.
00:39:13.000It's always the fault of the person that carries out the attack.
00:39:17.000And it doesn't matter the context surrounding it.
00:39:20.000Have you looked into this guy's history?
00:39:23.000I know that he was a CIA asset and he was actually involved in kinetic action in Afghanistan.
00:39:32.000From the reporting I've seen, when he was 15, he was recruited into one of these death squads put together by the CIA and worked for a very long time with them doing a lot of killing, allegedly.
00:39:42.000And it's not the only story like that.
00:39:43.000I think it was a few years ago, Jamal Wali in Fairfax, Virginia, another guy who was a translator, Afghani translator who came here on a similar, like similar to the Operation Allies Welcome, which is how this guy got here, who shot two cops, you know, and just wigged out.
00:39:59.000I don't know, you know, what's really going on behind it, but it is weird to me, their connections to the CIA.
00:40:05.000Yeah, he was a collaborator with Americans who fought against, so he fought against the Taliban.
00:40:10.000I'm reading here that he entered the United States under a program that offered special immigration protections to Afghanistan who had worked with the U.S. forces in Afghanistan.
00:40:18.000This is in the wake of the troop withdrawal in 2021.
00:40:21.000I saw in the Wall Street Journal, too, it sort of raises the question of does the United States have any obligation to those who choose to collaborate with them in these war zones?
00:40:30.000And then if we don't help these people, will we have future people to collaborate with when we do go to war in the future?
00:40:37.000The consequences of bringing those people over here, obviously, is something we have to deal with.
00:40:41.000People question whether or not it's radical Islam that drove this man or just mental instability on the heels of what he had to do in Afghanistan or his inability to assimilate in the United States.
00:40:55.000I've read reporting that he refused or struggled to learn English.
00:40:58.000He allegedly had five sons who he could not care for.
00:41:02.000And allegedly, like the education system was concerned about him through his children because they were in such poor care.
00:41:09.000So there are allegedly a handful of red flags.
00:41:11.000Also, community members were concerned about this man, but it seems as though he was really struggling to assimilate.
00:41:19.000And it's really unfortunate that this is how we have to find out that this guy's going through, you know, whatever scenario.
00:41:24.000And I think it has many Americans asking themselves, though, what if we just didn't bring people like this into the country?
00:41:30.000Yeah, I remember back right after 9-11, one of the things that I saw people talking about on the news a lot is there was a lack of human intelligence in Afghanistan.
00:41:40.000So there wasn't a lot of assets that the United States has.
00:41:43.000We didn't have the ability to reach out to locals and say, hey, help us find this person, help us do this, help us do that.
00:41:51.000And arguably, that is something that the government or that the federal government needs, especially if you're going to deal with hostile nations, you want to have people inside that will talk to you.
00:42:05.000And so we had to build up an entire infrastructure after 9-11 to try to do whatever it was that the government wanted to do in Afghanistan.
00:42:13.000So this is one of the problems that arises from that: what do you do with those people that are literally turncoats on their own, you know, their own country?
00:42:21.000Do you bring them back to the United States?
00:42:26.000I think that it's reasonable that if people come to the United States from a foreign country that were assets for the CIA, I think it's perfectly reasonable to have handlers that check in on them and see what their life is like.
00:42:52.000And then this guy, this guy was a CIA asset.
00:42:55.000He had worked with the U.S. while involved in Afghanistan.
00:42:59.000You know, it's the old saying, there are no coincidences.
00:43:04.000I just, as somebody who lived in a Muslim country and I was married to a Muslim for a very long time, and I think the question needs to be asked, and I don't know that how many people are actually asking it, is Islam compatible with living in our country?
00:43:24.000I mean, I absolutely know Muslims that live here and have assimilated and adopted the culture, but I'd say that's the exception rather than the rule.
00:43:33.000I think that's true of literally anyone everywhere.
00:43:39.000I'm not talking about just the we have our area in our It's not about area.
00:43:45.000It's about the reason Chinatown exists is because people live near each other and they don't give up their culture.
00:43:51.000It doesn't matter what per where you are from.
00:43:53.000It doesn't matter what religion you follow.
00:43:55.000When you move to another country, as Phil was mentioning earlier, that doesn't change when you set foot in a new space.
00:44:00.000This is true, but there are some shared values.
00:44:04.000And I will say in the Islamic world, there's a lot more radical Islamists than there would be, say, radical Christians, radical of other religions.
00:44:15.000And I'm not talking about just wanting to be within your own neighborhood.
00:44:20.000And, you know, as you use the example with Chinatown.
00:44:25.000The example of Chinatown was specifically that you have an area in New York, in LA, in Chicago, not because people live next to each other, but because their culture persists.
00:45:03.000Do we want to continue to import people that don't want to be part of the melting pot?
00:45:09.000But I'm going to say that Islam has a larger problem where they do not put the same value on human life and not just human life, but people in the Islamic fundamentalism, they do not believe that, let's say, an American woman is an actual human.
00:45:32.000I can't remember the Arabic term for it.
00:45:35.000They would say that a woman is, I'm not sure what I can say.
00:45:42.000They treat them like an animal versus a human being.
00:45:47.000Yeah, I think it is reasonable to say that there are that while you're, I agree with you, Tim, the way that different groups, ethnic groups or whatever, you know, they move to the country and they will live around each other.
00:46:00.000I think it's also fair to say that certain cultures, that's acceptable and certain cultures that won't work with, right?
00:46:05.000Like, so Chinatown, there's a bunch of Chinatowns all over the country, and it hasn't been any kind of disruptive factor in the United States.
00:46:18.000There are huge problems with the open-air fish markets in New York City.
00:46:21.000The issue is the degree to which we tolerate certain things, as to your point about, you know, Islam is going to treat women very differently.
00:46:30.000We end up seeing female genital mutilation in some places.
00:46:35.000But in New York, for instance, you have open fish markets and New Yorkers have complained about the smell and moved out of these areas because the government is unwilling to do anything about it.
00:46:45.000The problem is substantially less than people being killed or being beaten.
00:46:50.000That's the point that it's still a problem for the people who once lived in New York and called it home.
00:46:54.000That's the point that I'm making, though.
00:46:56.000Sometimes you can have these groups of people, you know, different group, different groups of people with different cultural backgrounds, and they'll be able to function in a society.
00:47:05.000Sure, there will be some displacement of people that live there currently because they don't want to live around whatever, what have you, fish market and stuff.
00:47:12.000But if you look at the Muslim communities, they're doing things like, you know, they're doing calls to prayer five times a day.
00:47:17.000They have, you have a bunch of, I've seen a bunch of videos of, you know, large groups of Muslims laying out their prayer rugs in the middle of their street and praying intentionally to disrupt the society that they live with, that they live with.
00:47:31.000And I think that the point that I'm making is, whereas you can deal with some cultures, the way that they behave, like the open-air fish markets that you're talking about, sure, like I said, there will be some displacement, but there are some that are there specifically to disrupt the existing society.
00:47:53.000We just, I actually think it's a bit more pernicious when it comes from these tolerable actions, which are detrimental to society, such as you have fish guts in the streets in New York in certain areas.
00:48:10.000And I often point out the city smells like sour milk because there are certain food practices that shouldn't be tolerated.
00:48:18.000The issue then is, you know, I'll throw it to the Antifa, the political violence conversation we've had over the past several years in why it is that you often hear in the media how the right is more violent and left is not.
00:48:30.000It's because what I would describe for the right is when you hear some kind of right adjacent political violence, it is extremely rare, but it is extremely acute.
00:48:41.000That is, a guy with a gun shoots a bunch of people.
00:48:43.000It doesn't represent the majority of Republicans.
00:48:46.000In fact, most Republicans would denounce almost every idea this person has, but it makes headlines everywhere.
00:48:51.000When you have 3,000 Antifa punching people in the face, not a single one of those stories makes national headlines.
00:49:11.000So you can have, there was a period where Breitbart was tracking every act of political violence against Trump supporters.
00:49:17.000And there was a list in like one year of 900 attacks, but they're all small blips.
00:49:23.000No one really cares that a guy got punched in the back of the head.
00:49:27.000One time in three or four years, a guy who's screaming about, you know, some fringe far-right ideology shoots up a bunch of people, it's in the news for decades.
00:49:38.000And so that's what we're dealing with right now.
00:49:40.000I actually think it's all bad, but to the point, Phil, about Islam, that's the acute violent problem.
00:49:47.000A guy comes up to National Guard, Guardsman, and kills them versus the obtuse.
00:49:52.000There's fish guts in the streets in New York City.
00:49:55.000And what happens with these is the problem isn't enough for the city to react.
00:50:01.000Most people are just slowly pushed away by it.
00:50:05.000And then eventually you get entrenched enclaves and the people who live there give up and leave.
00:50:10.000Do you think most of them are all bad?
00:50:11.000Do you think that most Americans are more inclined to say, you know what, I don't mind the Chinese people that have an open-air fish market as opposed to the Muslims that are stopping traffic and possibly doing things like the Caribbean?
00:50:25.000I think the point is the videos we've seen of them doing, there's one where they're at an airport and they're all blocking the vending machines and they did not need to block the vending machines.
00:50:37.000Although there's been a fact check where they said that they intentionally went to an area that was away from every like they had asked in advance.
00:50:45.000But there are videos of them on the sidewalk in the streets and doing these things.
00:50:49.000And if you say it's intentionally disruptive, we're talking about, again, an acute issue most people are instantly offended by.
00:50:56.000I actually argue we can easily say that terrorism is a worse problem than anything.
00:51:03.000It's a permanent, terrifying, and massively politically impactful action that is worse than anything any other culture has done when they've done something bad.
00:51:15.000It is worse in many ways because it is pernicious in these, the example being the open-air fish markets.
00:51:22.000Because what happens is they set it up, and then there's a bunch of people who live in an area, and they go to the local places and say, hey, you know, this smells really bad.
00:51:30.000Like, I live here, you know, I own property.
00:51:43.000There's no unity because this one neighborhood can never get an ordinance passed because their city rep goes to legislation and says, guys, we got to deal with these open-air fish markets.
00:51:53.000And the rest of them say it doesn't affect our neighborhood, so we're not opening legislation on this one.
00:51:58.000The people who own property now see their property values are collapsing and they all leave one at a time and then their neighborhoods become, they fall into disrepair or they get taken over by other cultures that are tolerant of open-air fish markets.
00:52:10.000That is terrifying as to what that means for this country if we don't enforce our cultural values and say, you know, we have a law in the book saying you can't put a pie on the windowsill on certain days.
00:52:23.000Please don't put dead fish on ice in front of all these stores.
00:52:34.000No, they're very trashy, but it's mostly only Chinese people down there.
00:52:36.000And if you go in the neighborhoods, yeah, you're looked at differently too.
00:52:40.000Like you're out of place if you're I want and and but it's it's not that it's it's these open air fish markets, they border the shopping districts.
00:53:00.000Your property value is going to go down, so you move.
00:53:04.000That is worrying in that our communities that were built and established by the men and women who came before us would be lost because we tolerate other cultures doing things that are disruptive.
00:53:17.000And that's not, you know, for all I know, these people show up and said, we have to open as many open-air fish markets as possible and then the property values will drop and we'll seize it all.
00:53:30.000And I think the big picture is we have to be more cognizant of this multicultural change that's been happening in this country for 50, 60 years and recognize it's going to destabilize our government.
00:53:45.000Nay, it has destabilized our country and government.
00:53:49.000And now we have a kleptocracy where basically every politician is trying to just extract as much as they can from the system.
00:53:55.000They don't actually want to solve problems.
00:53:57.000Marjorie Taylor Greene, I don't know what she's, I defended her a little bit when she announced she was leaving.
00:54:16.000The reason I bring her up is that people are pointing out she said a retirement for just after her pension vests so she can leave and get paid.
00:54:23.000This is the kleptocracy of a country we live in.
00:54:25.000Everybody getting in, Tim Waltz, whoever it's going to be, they get in and say, okay, now that a minute, how can I set myself up for a life and watch every, look, it's all burning down.
00:54:34.000Just to argue on that Marjorie Taylor Green point, the pension, the congressional pension is not much money.
00:54:40.000Once you consider in particular that Marjorie Taylor Greene was already very rich going into Congress, I get it.
00:54:45.000I don't think that makes any big difference.
00:54:47.000I think it was a big F you to Mike Johnson.
00:54:49.000I think that's who it was directed towards.
00:54:51.000But I think she needs to understand that it's also an F you to everybody who voted for her to serve out a two-year term in the House of Representatives.
00:54:58.000I do think that while we're sitting here arguing and reconsidering whether or not importing the third world will turn us into it, I'm satisfied that it seems as though the administration understands that it indeed is.
00:55:10.000And I'm also very grateful at this point that the president isn't letting a so-called good crisis go to waste.
00:55:15.000I hate saying that because it makes me kind of sound like a piece of shit, but the president after this happened sent out a truth social where he said, I will permanently pause migration from all third world countries to allow the U.S. system to fully recover, terminate all of the millions of illegal Biden admissions, including those signed by Sleepy Joe Biden's Autopen, and remove anyone who is not a net asset to the United States.
00:55:37.000This was also followed up one last thing, Tim.
00:55:39.000With what the administration is actually doing too now is halting the processing of all immigration requests from Afghanistan.
00:55:45.000They also ordered a review of all green cards issued to individuals from 19 countries and threatened a wider crackdown on migrants from what, again, he called third world countries.
00:55:55.000So this is a serious backlash to this one event.
00:55:59.000And I'm glad that the president administration and administration is taking this seriously.
00:56:03.000Let's jump to this next story from Politico.
00:56:12.000See, I had appeared on Jesse Waters' program, what was like two weeks ago.
00:56:17.000And y'all noticed because I wasn't here to open the show for the first 20 minutes.
00:56:21.000On his show, I said Donald Trump has been great for the working class, and we can see this reflected in the polls.
00:56:28.000But Democrats don't stand for anything.
00:56:30.000I couldn't tell you what their actual policies are.
00:56:32.000I got criticized by progressive groups and liberals.
00:56:37.000Probably you're, you know, I'm not going to name a bunch of them, but you know, they're saying Tim Poole is, you know, praising Donald Trump and he's licking his boots, all this other stupid nonsense.
00:56:48.000Well, the funny thing is, this group called Deciding to Win, a Democrat group, said the exact same thing about a week later: Democrats stand for nothing.
00:56:59.000The American people, including those in the Democratic Party, do not trust them on core issues and do not believe they represent the issues the American people actually want to see.
00:57:10.000And there's some really, really great data points in this, excuse me, where we have, let me see if I can find.
00:59:54.000I'm a former Democrat who donated the max to Democrats in 2020 against Donald Trump on my show in 2020 saying explicitly, I am not supporting Donald Trump and I am giving money to Tulsi Gabbard and Andrew Yang.
01:00:10.000And then I had a choice between Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
01:00:13.000And I said, Trump is going to be better on these issues.
01:00:40.000When they're not saying Donald Trump is bad, they're saying the United States is bad.
01:00:43.000They're saying that the U.S. is an imperial abomination, that it's full of warmongers and we have too many billionaires, et cetera, et cetera.
01:00:54.000The point is, they just hate the United States.
01:00:56.000Shelly, I feel like you deal with the id of the Democrat Party a lot in Portland.
01:01:02.000What do you think about how these issues manifest over there and what they care about?
01:04:15.000If we negotiated with the Republicans and said, all women will get a guaranteed at least three, it's three abortions, a good amount for you, that you can get at least three.
01:04:35.000So I will tell you what we figured out from my interviewing, you know, you're constantly changing the message was in the state of Oregon, it is enshrined in our state constitution that you can have an abortion up through the ninth month, up through the ninth month.
01:04:52.000And the only thing that would change that is a two-thirds, a quorum vote of the House and the Senate, and the governor would have to sign off on that.
01:05:01.000So we started reminding people of that, and it didn't make a difference.
01:07:11.000I actually, I gotta be able to celebrate it.
01:07:13.000This is actually, I think, a good survey to do.
01:07:16.000I think it would be interesting to go door to door in a Democrat area and ask women.
01:07:20.000And I'll say, say, we're doing surveys on pro-life and pro-choice.
01:07:24.000And we're asking, are you in favor of a legal abortion with no restrictions, or do you believe there should be some restrictions?
01:07:31.000And when they say, I don't think there should be any restrictions on women's choice, be like, on average, how many abortions have you gotten or do you think you will need?
01:08:10.000I do think it would be interesting if someone actually surveyed Democrat women and asked them on average how many abortions have they had or do they think they will need to have?
01:08:19.000I think they're all going to say zero.
01:08:20.000It's a bit fascinating that that's one of the top issues that this lady was concerned with, particularly given that the Trump administration is one of the most pro-choice Republican administrations that we've had in the past, I don't know, 50 plus years.
01:08:33.000One of the most stark things that I think really embodies this is how I believe there was a case, I think it was in Texas, about how they wanted to change how the abortion pill was prescribed and being mailed to people.
01:08:43.000And then they decided to like have the case dropped instead of adjudicating it.
01:08:47.000I think that, and then I think also overturning Groe v. Wade, sending it back to the states, but then the president saying that he wants to let the states decide is at best a neutral position on it.
01:11:26.000Now, you know, I was thinking there's something I've been thinking about quite a bit as it pertains to all the death threats and the escalation of violence.
01:11:32.000And, you know, we often get asked the question or ask it, when do you flee?
01:12:06.000There's a photo I saw of Anne Frank and her sister on the beach in Amsterdam, what, like a year before they killed her or some horrifying thing.
01:12:13.000And it's because there were many people in many Jews in Germany who started leaving, going to Israel, in fact, many of them.
01:12:43.000I bring this up not to suggest anyone flee their home country or their home or anything like that, but to point out, when you see this, I guarantee you there are going to be people going, it's just a nonprofit.
01:12:55.000They're not doing, it's conversations.
01:13:00.000And I will stress to you again, as we've made the point a million and one times that after the Battle of Fort Sumter, the American people did not believe we were in a civil war.
01:13:10.000So they picnicked at the first battle of Bull Run.
01:13:15.000The phrase civil war wasn't even used for two years into the Civil War.
01:13:20.000They didn't think a civil war was happening when they were literally sending 15,000 Union troops into southern states to go and capture generals and leaders.
01:13:33.000When they are calling on Trump's, when they're calling Trump's orders illegal, when they are calling on the military to defect and defy the president, we are already past the Fort Sumter moment historically.
01:13:46.000If Donald Trump were to suspend habeas corpus, as Stephen Miller already suggested he could on the issue of immigration, if Trump said, due to the threat and risks now facing our National Guard with the attempted, with the assassination of this young woman and the attempted assassination of this young man, we are suspending habeas corpus along transport routes for our military for the purpose of quelling violence and preventing sabotage and terrorism.
01:14:12.000That would be 100% in line with what Abraham Lincoln did.
01:14:17.000It was shortly after the first battle of Bull Run, I believe.
01:14:20.000Actually, no, it might have been before Bull Run.
01:15:06.000The risk is criminal liability, and they are calling on the military to factionalize.
01:15:11.000So you will get, as I've already explained, my country or my home, and these people are going to say my home.
01:15:17.000Before we left, before my family and I left West Virginia, or New York for West Virginia, before West Virginia was even an option on the table, we were like, we got to leave.
01:15:27.000And we had people in New York politicians talking about passing a law that would be like we could remove you from your home if you're a threat to the health of your community.
01:15:36.000So we're like, maybe this is a time we should be thinking about leaving.
01:16:27.000Three years later, Congress retroactively approved it.
01:16:31.000If Donald Trump were to come out right now and say, we are issuing a suspension of habeas corpus along federal interstate highways for the purpose of preventing sabotage and terrorism against our military and citing the death of this young woman, that would be completely in line with Abraham Lincoln.
01:16:49.000And then September 24th, 1862, Abraham Lincoln issued a nationwide suspension of habeas corpus.
01:16:56.000You could be arrested for literally any reason and locked up indefinitely.
01:17:00.000I mean, I think at least three out of the six people sitting here at this table have moved because of, you know, because of what the government in the state they came from originated in.
01:17:13.000You know, so I think that what you're talking about is already starting.
01:17:16.000You know, people are already all the people that have moved from New York down to Florida, all the people that have left California go to Texas.
01:17:38.000So, I mean, that wasn't from the government, but, you know.
01:17:43.000I do think there's an important, it's important to recognize that this is a concerted effort by progressives and on the far left to demoralize different law enforcement agencies for their own gain.
01:17:54.000They've done this with police in the past.
01:17:57.000Now they've moved on to different ICE agents.
01:18:00.000Elected officials, lawmakers encourage protesters and agitators to obstruct and prevent ICE agents from doing their job.
01:18:08.000Most recently, we saw this in New York City, but we're seeing this across the country.
01:18:11.000We're seeing lawmakers encourage just random city dwellers to attack, obstruct, and do whatever you can to get in the way of different ICE agents.
01:18:21.000Now they're advancing to the National Guard and having them trying to encourage them to reconsider the oath that they made.
01:18:43.000Still, I think they're trying to defund the Portland police or at one point, you know, just kept it up to how many cops they could hire or whatnot.
01:18:54.000And it's not just underfunded, but they're demoralized and hiring is an issue.
01:18:58.000And I kept telling people that we need the National Guard at the ICE building because instead of having 70 to 80 police at night on the ground, which is what they should have for that precinct, they have seven to test.
01:19:12.000And look, the left is extremely effective in these demoralized strategies.
01:19:17.000ICE agents, you know, what videos do you see online of them?
01:19:20.000You have people of crowds talking trash to them.
01:19:22.000Then you see lawmakers come out calling them Nazis and Gestapo.
01:19:25.000Tim Waltz, the retard governor from Minnesota, comes out and calls these people the Gestapo.
01:19:31.000And, you know, you're a young guy and you think you're helping your community.
01:19:35.000And then you have these people trying to demoralize you.
01:19:37.000Protesters come in your face, getting in your way, saying you're kidnapping people.
01:19:41.000So trying to get you to question what you're doing when you're actually saving the country.
01:19:46.000And it's scary how effective they are.
01:19:50.000You may do something questionable and you'll know that the governor or the mayor most likely won't have your back, you know, and qualified immunity is being struck down, not struck down, but being chipped away in certain cases.
01:20:03.000And it's like, why would you want to become a cop nowadays?
01:20:05.000Why would you want to protect and serve?
01:21:24.000ICE is still having trouble filling their ranks.
01:21:26.000They're offering a 50K signing bonus, but they're still struggling to, I think it's 10,000, 10,000 some odd positions that they're trying to fill.
01:21:33.000Apparently, Americans are very fat, not in shape, and not qualified to become.
01:21:39.000Even law enforcement agencies, agents, you saw how widely they were trying to advertise this stuff.
01:21:44.000So I guess this is a quick message to anybody in the audience.
01:21:47.000If we're a young, able-bodied, preferably man, frankly, you know, it's worth considering, right?
01:22:29.000Get an F you from your community more often than not.
01:22:32.000And, you know, and everybody, it's cool to be a dick to cops nowadays.
01:22:36.000The culture is such that it is cool to be, you know, I see these not legal observations, sometimes legal observers, but First Amendment auditors or whatnot, just people looking to F around with cops and just, you know, abuse our system and try to produce lawsuits and whatnot.
01:22:55.000Because once we don't have the law enforcement there, I think our society will be in a lot of trouble.
01:23:00.000And we're making it such that we encourage the worst people to join the best of the best because it's such a shitty job and because it's not looked up to, nobody talented or with skills wants to do it.
01:23:13.000I think that the quality of person that is joining law enforcement, like you're not getting dudes that are like, yeah, I really want to help my community nearly in the amount necessary.
01:23:25.000A lot of dudes are like, oh, well, you know, it's a job or, you know, I get to push people around.
01:23:31.000They get into law enforcement for the wrong reason.
01:23:34.000Hey, I think it's one of the only jobs where you still have a pension after the fact.
01:23:37.000So, I mean, hey, guys, it might be worth considering.
01:23:41.000I do think people should really look to Portland when they want to see what's going to happen with the, it's a multi-prong approach.
01:23:50.000It's the governor, it's the attorney general, it's the people on the street, it's the nonprofits, and they're going after these people to demoralize them.
01:24:00.000God forbid the rest of the country turns into, and hopefully we don't recognize that anywhere outside of Portland.
01:24:06.000Let's jump to this next story from TMZ.
01:24:08.000Waymo drives through middle of police standoff in Los Angeles.
01:25:16.000Imagine what happens if you're an accomplice of this guy and the cops are telling everyone, back off, and the Waymo drives up, and the cops, are they going to be thinking it's just a Waymo?
01:25:27.000And then as it's slowly going towards them, it just slams the gas and just slams into them.
01:25:32.000The assumption that a Waymo is just being stupid, it can't happen.
01:25:36.000So you know what I think is going to happen?
01:25:38.000You know why I think this story exists?
01:26:09.000Like, so we got the new update, I guess, for the Cybertruck.
01:26:14.000And the way auto-driving works is that you can click the little wheel on the steering wheel and it'll start driving the address you put it into.
01:26:21.000If you're on a highway and you click auto-drive, it'll just auto-drive on the highway.
01:26:25.000If you're in a city, it's not going to turn or do anything.
01:26:28.000But if you punch in an address, it'll drive the whole way.
01:26:30.000So you can just literally sit there staring at the road.
01:28:13.000If you're having a so-called mental health episode or something, or you're dealing with like a psycho or something, you lure them into the car, involuntarily capture them, and then send them to prison.
01:28:21.000You know, it's pretty wild that you could bait them with drugs in the car.
01:28:25.000You bait the crackheads with drugs into the car and then jail them in the car.
01:28:29.000And then you could take them out of New York and send them to the government's been doing this for decades.
01:28:36.000It's going to be weird, you know, in like 30 years when there's barely any humans left and almost everything is a robot and police are just robots and you're walking down the street and the robot comes up to you and he goes, halt, citizen, you are caught jaywalking.
01:29:14.000I knew the world was over the night before lockdowns happened in New York when I went to a supermarket and saw everyone grabbing toilet paper, that whole thing.
01:29:22.000And there was a line out the door at the supermarket up in Cortland Manor, New York.
01:29:26.000And we're all in line out the door and just slowly rolling by everyone as a googly-eyed robot on wheels staring at all of us.
01:32:21.000Well, I was going to say, like, it might be not in the car's data, but they may know because like Waze data and Google tracks all that stuff.
01:32:31.000But other than that, there is an interesting question of at what point do police get the ability to override your car?
01:32:39.000And more importantly, at what point do is the question needs to be asked, why is it possible for Tesla to know the speed limit is 55 and does, it'll show you on the screen, but actually automatically break the law.
01:32:54.000Well, I don't think the speed limit's ever above 100, but cars are still made to be able to go 100 miles per hour.
01:33:18.000It's a tool and you could choose what you do with the tool.
01:33:21.000And if you want to break the law, my point is we are going to enter a future where they make it so that cars can only go the speed limit.
01:33:27.000When we are in the right now, the overlap we're looking at is you get in the car, you press the accelerator down and you try to keep the speed at the right limit.
01:33:35.000You can slam it and fly down the street if you want to by flooring it because this is a product of a pre-AI world.
01:33:43.000When every car is pre-programmed and it's all AI, they will not be allowed to violate the speed limit.
01:33:51.000When every car in the, they're going to outlaw driving.
01:33:55.000Driving will be illegal and every car will be automated and car ownership will be rare.
01:34:00.000I think it was, I don't know if it was Uber who said this, but the vision is every single car is just fleets that all interact with each other.
01:34:11.000When you're about to pull onto a highway during rush hour, instead of getting jammed and everyone's trying to move and slow, every car can stop and start at the same time.
01:34:19.000So all of a sudden you're in your car on the highway and it slows down one mile an hour and you see a gap forming very slowly with the car in front of you and then a car slides in perfectly and no one ever stops.
01:34:32.000They may increase or get rid of speed limits.
01:34:34.000They may say you don't need a speed limit because nobody can drive.
01:34:36.000Every car just must go the same speed.
01:35:57.000I mean, outside of how it is in Afghanistan, because of all the drones, when I was working at an auction gallery, we started to see a lot of prayer rugs coming to the auction gallery from Afghanistan.
01:36:17.000It's not going to kill you in the way where it shows up with a gun and says, do it or else.
01:36:21.000It's going to just give you drugs and stuff.
01:36:24.000It's going to be the machine is going to tell you whatever you want to hear and it's going to make you believe whoever wants you to believe.
01:36:31.000It'll be like that, but there's also stuff like AI lavender that they're doing in Gaza that's a death machine.
01:36:37.000I'm saying like when the AI fully takes over, there's not going to be a need for the AI to be like, you are going to die.
01:36:45.000It's going to be like, you require medical assistance in dying.
01:36:50.000They're going to believe it all because the AI isn't just mechanisms.
01:36:54.000It is the networks of information we have.
01:36:56.000It'll be a tool of big pharma at that point, just pumping you full of flop.
01:37:00.000I mean, I don't see how our economy exists in the AI future.
01:37:05.000You know, one thing we were talking about with all these prediction markets is that I was like, maybe the post-capitalism future is when everyone's just too fat because there's food everywhere and we have an abundance of properties and houses.
01:37:17.000I'm like, when we get to that point, then the only way to make money is to be able to predict future events.
01:37:21.000So everyone's just sports betting and doing events contracts.
01:37:24.000And it's like, you were right, something happened.
01:37:27.000So now you can buy an extra slice of pizza.
01:38:10.000The idea that you, you know, I will say this.
01:38:15.000There are some very obvious call she bets you could make where it's like, maybe I shouldn't say bets at trades, where it's like a 90, 95% chance of happening.
01:38:22.000So you put in 100 bucks, you win $3 or something.
01:38:34.000I have to imagine there's a bunch of people doing arbitrage where they're just going in and betting on sure things and then making money from doing it.
01:38:53.000There are these videos where a guy walks into a restaurant, like a fast food place, and he's like, let me get a double cheeseburger and a big large fry.
01:39:00.000And they're like, that'll be, you know, 21, you know, 67.
01:39:37.000Well, it's this entire gambling industry.
01:39:39.000They have so much money to throw at these different advertisements.
01:39:42.000And especially as we legalize different parts of online gambling, particularly in the sports betting world, it's taking over so much of different ad space.
01:40:42.000Well, they're very far from the only ones, too, because I believe Aiden Ross and even Drake have a deep involvement with steak that's paying out.
01:40:48.000It's like an online gambling website that's paying out millions.
01:40:51.000And I think it's really sad because these are huge industries literally just made off of the backs of losing men, of poor men literally losing their money.
01:41:27.000Yeah, so when he bets $100,000, he doesn't need to be sponsored.
01:41:30.000Yeah, but he does UFC promotions at these different casinos and hotel resorts, and he has a deep relationship with them, and he's self-interested in advertising for them through his work.
01:41:40.000I would agree with you that these guys often are sponsored in such a way to promote it.
01:41:44.000But I think I was reading like something, I don't know if it was Post Malone.
01:41:48.000I can't remember the number, but he said it's a story I heard.
01:42:06.000I actually, I don't know if I completely agree.
01:42:10.000Think there's a problem that so many casinos are popping up, but people get entertainment and waste their money on lots and lots of things.
01:42:19.000I would rather someone, there's limits to this.
01:42:22.000But let me ask you guys: would you rather someone spend their entire paycheck on eating cake and like ding-dongs and ho-hos and doing mukbang or like going to a bar, a sports book where they where they bet several hundred dollars on a football game and then maybe they win or lose.
01:42:43.000At least when you're buying and eating the cake, you're contributing to an industry and you're hiring other people and it's stimulating the economy.
01:42:51.000These casinos and different online betting sports books are just feels like leeches on society.
01:42:59.000They don't produce anything for the economy as opposed to, I mean, you could be gluttonous and disgusting in a fat pig eating a bunch of fucking cake, which is gross and die.
01:43:07.000But like, I gotta be able to lose all your money a lot quicker gambling the thousand dollars away than eating a thousand dollars worth of cake.
01:43:13.000It is better that someone, some, okay, so I'm not advocating for an authoritarian system of taking people's money away, but I will just say a flat mathematical analysis.
01:43:20.000It is better that someone loses the excess money they have than gorges themselves in a mukbang video.
01:43:26.000Well, you know, the government does this in a certain way with Social Security.
01:43:31.000Bloomberg wanted to tax, he wanted to, he banned large sodas and he wanted to tax the poor because they make bad decisions.
01:43:37.000I'm not in favor of that, but it is true.
01:43:39.000If you took one of these poor people who's gorging themselves on these videos where these fat women are like, here's what I give my nine-year-old to eat, and they take like a whole freezer bag of pizza rolls and then they like put mayonnaise on it and then their kids just, I'm like, we'd be better off if they didn't have that money.
01:43:55.000I am not saying we should take their money from them.
01:43:58.000I'm saying if they're entertained by sports betting, both have their detriments.
01:44:39.000There's a lot of things that are really bad.
01:44:41.000The expansion of casinos, the over gambling, gambling influence, all of this stuff is out of control.
01:44:47.000But I don't know that we create a society where we say, you know, we're going to ban this because some people are abusive, unless you want to make the argument fat people shouldn't be allowed to buy cake anymore.
01:45:02.000I mean, should we tell morbidly obese people they're not allowed to buy dessert?
01:45:05.000Fat people can eat and buy as much cake as they want, but I don't want to have to pay for their health care when they inevitably get diabetes and have to cut off their leg.
01:45:18.000It's like the same thing, I believe, for certain drugs where some are legal and some are illegal.
01:45:22.000And the illegal ones kind of go back to the bottom.
01:45:24.000I got to tell you, it is a fact that obesity is a bigger problem than gambling addiction.
01:45:28.000Like the United States has a massive obesity problem.
01:45:31.000And so honest question, like, how do you deal with it?
01:45:34.000I don't like the idea that you can go to some like construction worker guy who he's like, listen, man, once a week, Sunday nights, me and the boys get together, we order burgers, we have a beer, and I put 50 bucks down on FanDuel or DraftKings, and then we all get to laugh and cheer when we were right or wrong.
01:45:51.000And ah, you know, I lost 50 bucks or I won 50 bucks this week.
01:45:55.000It is a problem when a guy takes his entire paycheck, goes to the craps table, loses it all shaking.
01:46:01.000And we try to create rules to stop that.
01:46:03.000At the same time, it is substantially worse.
01:46:05.000The United States has a morbid obesity crisis.
01:46:07.000I think these are cultural issues and that couldn't ultimately be solved at the government level.
01:46:12.000On the gambling thing, I will say, though, the people who advertise and push this shit literally loathe you and think you are an idiot and willing to sell you out for money.
01:47:08.000If you choose to go play a game, whether it be an arcade, which is worse than gambling, mind you, because arcade rewards are like 2% of what casino rewards are.
01:47:17.000Kids go to arcades to win tickets off of playing whack-a-mole.
01:47:20.000And the amount of money you spend there is substantially less than you get back.
01:47:24.000So everybody's going to go and spend money on some form of entertainment.
01:47:37.000These food companies that are knowingly putting oil, they're putting petroleum derivatives in their food so it sells better, knowing it's causing mental issues and killing people is substantially worse than creating a space where a guy can hang out on the weekend and make sports bets or someone wants to play some blackjack.
01:47:54.000You are upset, Elad, because people are, some people abuse this, but most people don't actually gamble that.
01:48:00.000I think this is a system that's taking advantage of young, poor men.
01:48:04.000I think poor men, young men are struggling in our country.
01:48:07.000They're struggling with porn addiction.
01:48:24.000I think they're selling people a false dream.
01:48:26.000And a lot of the advertisers do the same way.
01:48:28.000That's one of my biggest beefs with the internet.
01:48:30.000I will tell you what I have a problem with.
01:48:31.000There's conspiracy theories that these gambling influencers are playing rigged games.
01:48:35.000There was a video of a guy betting a thousand bucks on blackjack, and everybody accused there was a viral video where they said, What's really happening is these influencers call the casinos.
01:48:46.000The casinos give them a rigged machine in an isolated space where they're guaranteed to win and it's not real money.
01:48:52.000So they give them, they'll put money in.
01:49:08.000The truth is, I will say this: of all these videos you see, where even if it's real, they actually win these slots, it is not possible to win these big jackpots.
01:49:21.000So when you see a video of someone playing a high-limit slot machine, the reason why I believe these are rigged and it's a conspiracy is that the pay table for slots is the same no matter how much money you put in it.
01:49:32.000Let me put it this way: think about how a slot machine in Vegas, they have slots in 99% payout.
01:49:39.000They're outright telling you, if you put 100 bucks in, we'll give you 99.
01:49:43.000You're hoping that you catch the machine in the middle where someone else already lost the hundred bucks and you put in 10 and win their 99.
01:49:51.000That means if you put 20 grand in a machine, it literally cannot pay you out more than went into it.
01:49:59.000So, what actually happens with these slots when you see these people, they're like, I'm going to bet $1,000 a spin.
01:50:04.000The pay table is the same if it's $5 or a $1,000 bet.
01:50:09.000On the $1,000 bet, you win one to one.
01:50:13.000That means if you get like three of a kind and it pays one to one, you'll win $1,000.
01:50:18.000But when you hit a bonus, you still only win $200 because most slots aren't paying out on the actual slot itself.
01:50:25.000They're playing out on bonus structures that are capped to pay out between $1,000 and $3,000.
01:50:29.000Sometimes it's very rare they have the jackpots or whatever.
01:50:33.000That I think is a conspiracy, the advertising of it.
01:50:36.000My point ultimately, though, before we go to chats, because we definitely have to, is that I don't look at a working class guy having a beer as a problem, but there are alcoholics.
01:50:48.000I don't look at someone buying a ho-ho and eating it with a nice glass of milk.
01:50:53.000Maybe they put some melted peanut butter around it.
01:52:40.000Plus, if it starts pouring, you can zip in the heavy, zip on the heavy storm rain jacket, instantly level up to full waterproof protection.
01:52:46.000You'll get free U.S. shipping from their U.S. warehouse.
01:52:49.000The gear will last you season after season.
01:52:51.000Just text Tim to 36912 for your 60% off.
01:55:10.000A lot of people were just doing nothing.
01:55:13.000I guess when you're at a steakhouse, it's people who are more likely to be running businesses or involved in politics in the D.C. area.
01:55:19.000But I was at, I would, it's kind of freaking me out.
01:55:23.000I mean, the idea of civil war, like people thinking it's going to be big factions lined up on, you know, on different sides of a field.
01:55:34.000I don't think, I think we've talked about that a bunch.
01:55:36.000That's not likely what it's going to be.
01:55:39.000It'll be people, you know, carrying out attacks against their political rivals.
01:55:43.000It'll be the kind of stuff that you're seeing Antifa do in the Pacific Northwest.
01:55:49.000My prediction is: let me say this: I've predicted that by around November, October of next year, we will have already seen another high-profile assassination or killing.
01:56:09.000Imagine a fractal pattern, all these different directions.
01:56:11.000Which one is actually going to make it to the end?
01:56:13.000We don't know for sure, but it's becoming clear the closer we get.
01:56:16.000So, one of the pro scenarios based on the information we have today would be ICE riot, National Guard deployed, fireworks or an explosion, National Guard ends up in a fight, someone shoots one of the protesters, Democrats come out and say the National Guard is now killing peaceful protesters.
01:56:39.000Says, we warned you, you must defy these orders.
01:56:42.000You then hear a statement from some officer saying, We will not be deployed following the killing by the National Guard of these protesters.
01:56:53.000You know, the California National Guard, or maybe it's Newsom coming out and saying, We will not allow our brave men and women in the California National Guard to be subject to these scenarios where they would be driven or ordered to shoot American citizens.
01:57:07.000We don't, and then he says something to the effect of it is immaterial what the courts, the federal courts say.
01:57:14.000We have already spoken with our guard and they do not want to be put in these situations as these are illegal orders and they will defy them, as is the law.
01:57:22.000Then Trump's going to have to send the Marines or declare insurrection.
01:57:26.000And this is how you get to that point where there's going to be factional conflict in the streets, shooting, ultimately, military on military civil conflict.
01:57:32.000Like a Kent State-style thing that spurs this about.
01:57:37.000I'm surprised and commend how orderly ICE has been in their different operations around the country.
01:57:45.000You see, in a lot of these videos, things have the potential to really get out of hand.
01:57:49.000But the professionalism of our law enforcement, I think, really needs to be commended.
01:59:32.000My daughter has important baby work every day.
01:59:34.000She has to roll around and chew on things.
01:59:38.000Chance Walls says, For the love of God, can someone bring up unusual whales reporting on MTG stock trades with Lockheed and Raytheon days before the Russia-Ukraine war?
01:59:46.000Listen, if you watched Alex Jones and you trusted him, you'd be rich.
01:59:53.000He said a war was going to happen at this point in this time.
01:59:56.000And if you went, okay, I should buy all the stocks now.
02:01:07.000I don't care about the Peter Deal stuff.
02:01:09.000Man, I'd have made a lot of money if I just listened to Ian.
02:01:14.000When Ian started screaming out graphene, like around the first time, I bought a bunch of stock in a company that produces graphene and made a lot of money off it.
02:02:18.000We got enough time to grab a couple more.
02:02:21.000We got Asset Reflux saying, watching one of your earlier segments was really blackpilling, but then there's these stories coming out about more fraud.
02:02:32.000I'll wait a little longer before I turn tail.
02:02:35.000Yeah, my 4 p.m. on the Culture War podcast channel on Rumble and youTube at Com slash Timcast was about, it was focused on the Democrats abandoning the working class like we talked about, but I also reserved some for Donald Trump's failures.
02:02:49.000The H-1Bs and the Chinese visas, his aggregate polling is now minus 12.
02:02:54.000I don't think, I don't care much for it because all the polls are insane.
02:02:59.000Like one says minus 20 and one says minus four.
02:07:47.000I mean, like, right before people may remember that episode where it looked like I was here and then I wasn't because we had a way to go to the hospital.
02:07:57.000We had a scare and everything was okay.
02:07:59.000But I was like, we were 10 minutes from the show or whatever.
02:08:04.000And I don't get too personal with the private details, but you know, you have a baby and it's like, sometimes you got to go to the hospital.
02:08:09.000And I just jumped out of the chair and I was like, it's all you, Phil.
02:08:41.000And then I was like, it is probably kind of funny that, you know, my daughter is almost a year older than your son, but for all intents and purposes, they are the same age.
02:08:50.000Like right now, there's development differences, but when they're both 9 and 10 or 11 and 12 or even 20 and 21 or whatever, they're effectively the same age.
02:11:02.000I was just, I had this really good idea.
02:11:04.000I was saying, you know, you know what would be really great to solve a lot of the cultural problems is I was thinking like Friday after work, we just, we put the phones away.
02:11:13.000We say until the end of day tomorrow, we're not going to do any work.
02:11:18.000We're going to hang out with family and have a big dinner, invite everybody over.
02:11:21.000And nobody does anything, no computers, no phones.
02:11:25.000We just, you know, you hang out and have family time.
02:12:45.000I feel like in our technologically driven society nowadays where it's so hard to detach, it would be especially great for people more than Shabbat has ever been.
02:12:55.000Well, to be fair, you know, what we've been doing these Fridays where we've pre-recorded IRL early, the challenge largely was Fridays kind of suck because there isn't much news most of the time, unless it's something that's meant to be buried.
02:13:09.000Then you actually get a shocking story.
02:13:11.000But we were like, usually on Friday nights, it's either the news we already had the whole day because it was an early morning thing or a Thursday night thing.
02:13:18.000And then Fridays end up getting a little wild where we just kind of talk about fun stuff because there's not much going on.
02:13:24.000So we decided we'd pre-record these, allowing us to do the Discord community backstage pass where it's an afternoon hangout with the Discord watching us hang out.
02:13:35.000It was a way to create more community engagement.
02:13:38.000And after the show wraps, all of us and our friends, we go hang out at breweries or somewhere and have dinner together.
02:13:47.000And we went to what's the, what's that one we went to?
02:15:35.000There's actually gay men that'll come on the show.
02:15:37.000I have a dental appointment in the afternoon that I'm going to have to move, reschedule, or otherwise, because we were originally like, okay, how do we do this?
02:15:44.000And I was like, no, I'll just, it's because I'm finally getting the implant put in.
02:17:14.000So what are y'all's thoughts on the actual U.S. population being closer to 270 million rather than the reported 340 million with imported labor potentially inflating the population and GDP by over 20%?
02:17:47.000And it got me thinking with the reduction in population with Gen Alpha being close to a third and their Porter U.S. population being 340 million.
02:17:57.000It's like, are they adding the 50 or so to 70 or so million illegals and visa holders and illegal migrants into those numbers of population size?
02:18:09.000And our actual country population might actually be a lot smaller than what we think it is.
02:18:14.000Yo, I got to tell you, my friends, you have to watch this video.
02:18:17.000I'm going to pull it up because it's a new channel.
02:19:07.000Like, you don't even, you can't even drive on it anymore.
02:19:09.000How is that possible when traffic was so bad unless millions upon tens of millions, hundreds of millions of people around the world disappeared?
02:21:00.000It's been there for like 100 plus years.
02:21:03.000They had bleachers overlooking the racetrack so you could come.
02:21:08.000Kids are allowed to come and watch the horse races.
02:21:11.000Gambling is a component of it, but for the most part, the people who go there with their kids are just watching the horses and you order food and it's a fun sporting event, just like it would be to watch any other sporting event.
02:21:21.000They do have, the casino does have restaurants, of course, but they no longer have a buffet and they no longer have a restaurant overlooking the races.
02:21:28.000And I asked them why and they said, we can't find anybody to do it.
02:21:48.000When a casino doesn't have a buffet or valet parking, it's kind of like, this is where people just burn and lose money and they don't have a valet.
02:23:16.000But there was a changeover at Dust Up in the leadership.
02:23:20.000They changed the ICE leaders and replaced them with Border Patrol, the aggro cowboys of federal law enforcement, and they operate under different rules.
02:23:29.000And they are operating in Oregon, in other states that are not 100 miles of the border.
02:23:37.000I have a couple of contacts at DHS, and I might be brought along for a ride along next week sometime.
