00:03:00.000And this shakeup comes after rumors were circulating following what went down in Minnesota that Trump was considering firing Christy Noam.
00:03:07.000I didn't believe it because it's so difficult to get a confirmation through that it seemed easier just to have someone else do the job while she is still the head of DHS.
00:03:18.000One of the other stories is that when she's at this congressional testimony hearing, she says she did this $200 million ad campaign with Trump's knowledge.
00:03:59.000And then we've got an interesting story that's now getting a little bit more steam.
00:04:02.000A suspected insider who's on track to make $100,000 this month in the prediction markets, accurately predicting U.S. military action, for which the individual has predicted the U.S. is going to enter Iran.
00:04:15.000U.S. troops are going into Iran by the end of this month.
00:04:19.000Some people are saying this proves it's going to happen because you've got somebody with insider information making a lot of money, $100,000 in a month.
00:06:39.000I've got a PhD in history of focused on history of science from the University of Pennsylvania, and I represent a company called Safe Blood.
00:06:45.000We're working hard to make the blood supply as safe as it can possibly be.
00:06:49.000And you can check us out at safeblood.com.
00:07:00.000Trump fires Christy Noam as frustrations build among White House officials and GOP lawmakers.
00:07:05.000According to NBC News following up, they make reference to her place in the administration had become increasingly unstable following the fatal shooting of two U.S. citizens by federal officers during immigration operations in Minneapolis earlier this year.
00:07:18.000And amid her fraying relationship with the U.S. Coast Guard and other reported infighting at Homeland Security, her firing by the president on Thursday in an online post comes after weeks of bad press.
00:07:30.000He said, I thank Christy for her service.
00:07:33.000He said great things about her and that she will be moving to be special envoy for the Shield of the Americas, our new security initiative in the Western Hemisphere.
00:07:42.000We are announcing on Saturday in Doral, Florida.
00:07:44.000And then he's calling on undefeated professional MMA fighter Mark Wayne Mullen to take over the DHS.
00:07:52.000And then, of course, I believe the governor of Oklahoma is going to choose to appoint a senator in the interim, which should be interesting because we'll probably get a rhino.
00:08:02.000But I didn't think he was going to fire her.
00:08:06.000Getting Mark Wayne Mullen approved by the Senate seems increasingly difficult to pull off unless they give us like a tepid establishment guy and the Democrats just go, I guess I'll vote for him.
00:08:16.000The Democrats don't want to say yes to anything that Trump does.
00:08:18.000As for Christy Noam, I was thinking that was going to happen right around all of the hubbub in Minneapolis.
00:08:23.000The messaging that was coming out around that was really bad.
00:08:27.000She could have made that whole situation something that didn't get the attention that it did.
00:08:33.000They could have handled it far better because honestly, the activities that the police were engaging on, the ICE agents and the federal agents were engaging on the ground, they weren't particularly excessive.
00:08:46.000They were dealing with people that were doing all they could to interfere with legal law enforcement.
00:10:15.000And people are growing increasingly more kind of just frustrated with the way things are going.
00:10:20.000Obviously, the left is frustrated because they don't like anything that's going on right now because it's their job to push back.
00:10:25.000And the right is angry on different levels because people that consider themselves America first are fighting with people who are establishment Republicans because nobody can seem to get anything through.
00:10:46.000And then they pass laws saying you can't own guns, you can't do anything.
00:10:48.000And then at the administrative level, when you go hyper into politics, you've got the Democrats obstructing everything and Trump admin doing relatively little.
00:11:14.000The people in power are not doing anything about the criminals.
00:11:18.000So politically, we've got an archo-tyranny.
00:11:19.000On the ground, we've got anarcho-tyranny.
00:11:21.000And, you know, what's really frustrating for me is that every day you get inaction and failure.
00:11:27.000People become more and more disinterested in this.
00:11:30.000And then how are you supposed to actually rally people together to solve for these political problems when people are basically giving up because they vote for someone like Trump?
00:11:39.000We're a year in, and they're like, this is it.
00:12:04.000Yeah, so the thing that I was thinking about, well, you used to characterize, or at least you would tell us how other people would characterize that Trump is the bull in a china shop, right?
00:12:12.000Well, if that's the point here, and we have now entered a level of discourse where everything is discombobulated, nobody has any sense of decorum, we were fine with that because we were assuming that that was going to lead to some type of political change.
00:12:24.000But if what we're getting right now is a bull in a china shop that leads to war in Iran, it's like it's the same thing we were having before, just with mean words on the internet, which are funny, but it doesn't mean that anything's going to be different this time around.
00:12:37.000Yeah, I mean, I would like to see, obviously, I would like to see more deportations.
00:12:40.000I've outlined my opinion about the immigration situation more times than I can count.
00:12:45.000It does feel like Trump is actually paying more attention to international affairs than he is paying attention to the stuff at home.
00:12:50.000And the American First People, they're not particularly interested in what's going on internationally.
00:12:54.000They don't want the war in Iran, even though most of MAGA, if you go by the polls, most of MAGA says, look, if this goes well, we're cool with it.
00:13:04.000You know, there's something like 75% say if it's only a month, they'll be okay with it.
00:13:08.000So generally, the MAGA Republicans are like, okay, this is all right, but don't lose focus on the homeland.
00:13:15.000Like paying attention to immigration is the biggest thing.
00:13:18.000And then the stuff in the fall, when it comes to the elections, like that's going to be whether or not people feel like their dollar goes as far as they arbitrarily think it should, right?
00:13:27.000Like they want to be able to go to the grocery store, pay their bills, and have some left over.
00:13:33.000And they want to feel like there has been movement on that.
00:13:36.000If they don't, Republicans cannot win.
00:13:41.000That's not a guarantee that all Republicans are going to win, but they're definitely not going to win if people feel like their dollar is stretched in.
00:13:48.000Well, gas went up 60 cents after Iran.
00:13:54.000But that's something that, again, if he can keep this to a short-term issue, like a month, gas prices will go down by the time the elections or the campaigns get into full swing.
00:14:05.000And the American people have a fairly short memory when it comes to this kind of stuff.
00:14:08.000When it comes to, you know, things that happened six months ago or a year ago, it might as well have been five years ago.
00:14:13.000They care about what's right in front of them right now.
00:14:16.000And if their wallets feel strained, they will not vote for Republicans.
00:14:21.000And again, I've said it a million times.
00:14:23.000This is not a guarantee that Republicans will win.
00:14:25.000It's just the conditions that are necessary for Republicans to be able to win.
00:14:30.000If things are going poorly in the economy, if people feel like they can't pay their bills, they always vote against the party in power.
00:14:38.000The history says that generally the party in power loses in the midterms.
00:14:44.000It's just going to be a bloodbath if they don't, if they have to.
00:14:46.000Do you think this could be part of a larger strategy, moving Christian Ohm out at this time?
00:14:51.000So, for example, Trump in his first term was pretty famous for moving somebody out, moving an interim person in.
00:14:57.000So, we saw Jeff Sessions go to then have Matthew Whitaker as an acting attorney general.
00:15:03.000I'm wondering, could this move with Christian Ohm be a strategic shift while all the eyes are on what's going on in Iran so that when we come back from that and move on to the next phase of his administration, then they bring somebody in who maybe can go even more aggressively after immigration.
00:15:19.000They're already bringing in Mark Wynn Mullen.
00:15:23.000Yeah, I'm curious because what's the timeline for which you have to leave the Senate to start to be the acting Secretary of DHS to get confirmed?
00:16:36.000But after you left here, you got pretty excited about the keyboard.
00:16:39.000In fact, you tweeted at me one, two, three, four, five times.
00:16:48.000And let me read what the last one said.
00:16:50.000It said, greedy CEO who pretends like he's self-made.
00:16:56.000Sir, I wish he was in the truck with me when I was building my plumbing company myself and my wife was running the office because I sure remember working pretty hard in long hours.
00:18:55.000We're in this, what is it called, the rat utopia?
00:18:56.000Like the United States, since the fall of the Soviet Union has kind of been a rat utopia where everyone's just living off, you know, the massive tit and getting fat and has all the entertainment and food and cheap gas.
00:19:07.000And now, so people are going like dystopia.
00:19:12.000It's just this feminist creep that's a result probably of the largely women.
00:19:16.000You know, feminism, I think feminine energy usually comes out of women more than it comes out of men generally.
00:19:21.000Sometimes you look at that clip that we just saw and it does seem to suggest that this is probably what Trump's going for.
00:19:27.000He's going for somebody to get in there who is going to be tough and is willing to not shrink away from controversy, clearly, in order to be aggressive about what he wants to get done.
00:20:02.000Like, it wasn't like, hey, you bumped into me in the parking lot and you didn't apologize.
00:20:06.000It was like, you said something mean to me on the internet, which, of course, has been a hallmark of the internet for as long as it's been around.
00:20:11.000It's people being like, oh, don't let me catch you outside.
00:20:14.000He's like, he's at any time, any place.
00:22:34.000Let's read this from the Washington Examiner.
00:22:35.000They say, Miami-Dade County Republican Chairman Kevin Cooper said anyone associated with this chat should resign immediately.
00:22:42.000Republican state rep Juan Porris on Wednesday called on Carvajal directly to step down, describing the message as deeply disturbing.
00:22:48.000In messages, Gonzalez said, you can F all the K's you want, just don't marry them and procreate.
00:22:55.000Warning about the risk of having, quote, a little K running around.
00:22:59.000He responded, I would death not marry a Jew.
00:23:02.000In another anti-Semitic exchange, Valdez changed the group chat name to Gooning and Agartha, referencing slang for a male, if you know what I mean, and the mythical civilization promoted by Adolf Hitler's top henchman, Heinrich Himmler.
00:23:14.000Valdez described Agartha as esoteric Nazism, essentially, while Gonzalez said it was Nazi heaven, sort of.
00:23:21.000To be fair, if you're not giving us the context of what they were saying, just putting in quotes a small, like him saying esoteric Nazism essentially, they could be criticizing it for all I know.
00:23:31.000Not that I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt, to be honest.
00:23:33.000Another exchange, Valdez said, we need to have a moratorium on immigration temporarily, unless it's someone from a first world country.
00:23:42.000Some chat users also use derogatory language about women, while others frequently used the word N and additional disparaging and violent comments against black people.
00:23:51.000Ew, you had colored professors, Gonzalez wrote.
00:23:54.000I reguse, he meant refuse, to be indoctrinated by the coloreds.
00:23:59.000He later said, avoid the coloreds like the plague.
00:24:42.000Most of the time, I don't even say because it's like you're going to end up being guilty by association for something if somebody says something that you had nothing to do with.
00:24:49.000Now, that being said, the Republicans should ignore all the calls for resigning and stuff because the Democrats will just use that as confirmation that the people actually meant it and that they were actually racist and stuff.
00:25:02.000They might be able to get away with saying, oh, this is just, you know, we were just being, you know, locker room talker, whatever, however you want to call it.
00:25:09.000They're not going to approve these people if they say they're sorry.
00:25:12.000So they should ignore all the calls for people to resign.
00:25:15.000Kind of makes me think of that dude who was saying in a group chat that he wanted to kill somebody's mom.
00:26:17.000When there's this clip that Asmund Gold has on his ex account where he watches a clip from World of War, like from Warcraft, not World of Warcraft, but the original IP from 1994.
00:28:01.000But to make them the main protagonist of an action game for kids is like makes them kind of maybe resent that they're being force-fed shit that's like weird.
00:28:09.000You know, like you don't go on a battlefield and expect to see a large black woman next to you in combat.
00:28:16.000Let me let me translate these eonisms.
00:28:18.000I don't care what skin color you have.
00:28:19.000Let me translate the eonisms because I actually talked about this earlier today as I did a breakdown of like all like basically just elaborating everything we're talking about.
00:28:27.000Concord, for those that aren't familiar, was a $400 million project by Sony that launched to tens of players.
00:28:36.000Like ultimately they sold 25,000 copies of the game, but nobody was playing it.
00:28:40.000And within 11 days, they shut it down and refunded all their money.
00:28:43.000It is considered to be the biggest flop in the history of all media from $400 million to zero.
00:28:52.000Even bad movies that flop, it'll be like it was a $100 million budget.
00:28:57.000Oh, there's some movies that lose that much, but the point is, I went through and looked at the characters in this game, Concorde, and it's a bunch of like Tumblr-esque, woke, weird, they-thems and she-thems.
00:29:14.000There's like a fat Pakistani guy, and it's like, first and foremost, we go to fantasy games and realms to play as the like the extreme superhero.
00:29:26.000You want a guy who's jacked up and you want a woman who's super hot.
00:29:56.000And so, what ends up happening is they keep trying to make these like the example that I give in the Overwatch video game, which came out 10 years ago, and we played these videos yesterday as well.
00:30:16.000So, when someone sees an Egyptian character, and it's not demeaning, and she's got like a hieroglyph over her eye, they're like, oh, she's Egyptian.
00:30:22.000Like, I understand references to that culture.
00:30:27.000Then, when you decide you're going to make a, you know, a black woman who does not in any way behave or represent anything related to black females and their culture or black culture, no one likes it.
00:30:49.000They do not have an opportunity to see war, conquest.
00:30:53.000And I'm not saying that you should always just be into that stuff, but they're not seeing stories of heroism and they're not being given challenges.
00:30:59.000They're not being told, here's how you succeed.
00:31:04.000Instead, they're being told to hold hands and kiss puppies.
00:31:08.000And it's like, yo, there's a time and a place for hugging your puppy, but guys want to jump off buildings and punch each other in the nuts.
00:31:14.000And for that matter, we can also get into, we'll save this for the end of the show.
00:31:18.000The new game, EA Skate, one of the most anticipated games of all time, no joke, has 1,900 players on average right now.
00:31:28.000Again, one of the most apocalyptic failures of a media.
00:31:32.000Within six months, the player base dropped.
00:31:35.000They lost 70% of their players after launch because it's not a game where, as a man, you are being told, here's how you conquer the world.
00:31:42.000It's a game where you play as a morbidly obese guy with tits and you're being told by some young girl to go and have fun and play and dance.
00:32:28.000He's fighting back currently against all of the Burger King and McDonald's CEOs who are trying to sell you their burgers by trying to get you healthy.
00:32:35.000So basically, protecting the food supply is another, it's a masculine trait.
00:32:38.000You know, protecting in general is a masculine trait.
00:32:41.000So you don't have to break people's faces to be masculine.
00:33:00.000And I want to just start by saying to everybody who doesn't care about these video games or anything like that, the purpose of this segment is to discuss the destruction of masculinity, the removal of what it means to be a man, the challenge to our young people, and how it's, I believe, brewing extremism and politics in a way that we're not going to be happy with.
00:33:19.000So we just talked about this group chat leak where you've got these guys, they're saying a bunch of racist things.
00:33:24.000And I got to be honest, I don't think for the most part these people actually are deeply racist.
00:33:29.000I think they're trying to be shocking and edgy.
00:33:31.000They are trying to be aggressive because this is what young men do.
00:33:36.000And I want to show you just the beginning, a little bit of this video from World of Warcraft to give you an example of what is being done to our young people.
00:33:45.000And if men cannot find an outlet for their drive and aggression, they will find it somewhere else.
00:33:52.000And it used to be in our media and our video games where kids would play cops and robbers and chase each other around and the little boys would play fight.
00:33:59.000And now they're being told to stop doing it.
00:34:01.000It's a problem that people have addressed over the past 20 years, but has never stopped.
00:34:05.000The problem of you got a little boy and a little girl in grade school, and the little boy wants to jump up and down and he wants to punch the ball and he wants to play and he's told to sit down and shut up and be like a girl.
00:37:21.000And it literally ends with the blood elf female.
00:37:24.000And this is funny because it's so feminist.
00:37:26.000watch this, slamming her staff into the ground, creating a big burst of energy, which is kind of dumb because what she was doing was actually a healing spell.
00:37:40.000I guess, to be fair, it hurts your enemies and heals your allies or whatever.
00:37:43.000The point is, is they got it right 20 years ago before HR departments came in to tell them they were doing it wrong.
00:37:48.000And they got it right 20 years ago, and it became the hottest IP ever.
00:37:51.000Even Dave Chappelle was talking about how he played World of Warcraft.
00:37:54.000Tons of celebrities are like, this game is amazing.
00:37:56.000And now it's about decorating your house.
00:38:32.000This is why, like, it all comes together with like what they're doing with non-binary stuff, which, of course, we can get into the James Tallerico thing where he says God is non-binary.
00:38:39.000But they're basically like, how do we make the game for boys and girls?
00:38:42.000I know you beat the crap out of each other in order to decorate your house instead of just one or the other.
00:39:03.000This is a mixture of both the corporate structure of these companies now, which are so large that they get focus groups and they try to find ways to advertise.
00:39:12.000In Hollywood, for movies, it's called four-quadrant movie making, where you try to make movies for men, women, young, and old.
00:39:17.000And usually, when me and Phil were talking about this earlier, when you try to make something for everybody, you end up making something for nobody at all.
00:39:44.000Somebody edited it and they used AI to make her black.
00:39:50.000And I know that, like, I already made a video where I said I would do that, but they were like day one mod, and they made the Karen a black woman.
00:40:00.000If they should make it so she gets bigger the more she eats, like Katamari Damazi, ever play that where you roll that ball around and sticky things to the ball and the ball gets bigger and bigger.
00:40:07.000And then you're like rolling it through cities and like picking up buildings and stuff.
00:40:12.000There's something important that needs to be said.
00:40:15.000If World of Warcraft and these companies really do want to just make money, okay, well, OnlyFans make substantially more money than anything they're doing.
00:40:24.000So why don't they just make World of OnlyFans and you'll make money?
00:40:27.000My point is, if the goal is to make money and you don't care that you're destroying your intellectual property, then just go full boar, baby.
00:42:33.000Well, you know, the direction I was thinking of looking at this in is I'm wondering if what we're actually seeing here is a much larger cultural shift.
00:42:48.000And the premise that he makes there is that what happened between Generation X and the millennials, and then it's going to be Generation Z, is that that move for DEI and to get equal representation of women and everyone else in the workforce just took over like the cultural, you know, we call the cultural industries.
00:43:11.000So film, universities, television shows, where the Gen Z white males didn't leave and say, okay, we're going to give our seats to black women, right?
00:43:21.000But what they did is they then were part of, you know, hiring programs that only hired basically non-white males.
00:43:28.000So you had all of these, you know, millennials who work up and coming in, say, the entertainment industry to be writers and producers and things.
00:43:38.000And suddenly they're being looked over no matter how good their work is.
00:43:41.000And what I would wonder is, are we seeing this same phenomenon here in the video game world?
00:44:16.000But talking about how millennial men, older millennials, Gen X, and boomers have largely kept their positions, but it's become really, really hard for young guys, for younger millennials, Gen Z, and likely some Gen Alpha kids to find jobs because they're basically pulling the ladder up behind them, right?
00:44:38.000So there's this push for diversity and inclusion that happened, started probably 10 years ago, really kind of peaked in 2020 or whatever.
00:44:47.000And so there were all these guys in these positions, and they jumped on board with it right away, saying, oh, yeah, we want to make sure that we hire diverse people.
00:44:55.000And they were hiring people, you know, all kinds of different backgrounds and stuff.
00:44:58.000And they were essentially blocking out the possibility for young white guys.
00:45:04.000And then you have all these positions or you have all these kids that are just not getting jobs.
00:45:09.000They get sold the bill of goods that if you go to college, you'll get a job.
00:45:12.000You go ahead and take a loan out because you'll get a good job and you'll be able to pay it off.
00:45:16.000And these young guys aren't getting jobs at all.
00:45:18.000And it's starting to show in the culture because the type of stories that a diverse, you know, a diverse group of people or a woman would write or a person from a minority background, they are different types of stories than young men.
00:45:34.000It's not necessarily just that, but the type of person who would get ahead by those types of programs would.
00:45:38.000So these industries have been diverse for years.
00:45:41.000There have been fantastic writers and directors of all different races for a very long time.
00:45:47.000But the ones who have gotten by virtue of these programs put a specific interest in the concept of identity and talking about how identity affects storytelling, which is going to leak into the type of stories that you think are necessary to tell on screen.
00:46:00.000If we're talking video games and movies also, a lot of it is, if it's not the four quadrant approach that I was talking about for the big blockbuster movies, it is the idea that you make your movies with a female audience in mind, even if they're doing it wrong.
00:46:13.000So in Hollywood for superhero movies, that's to put women in roles that were traditionally, these characters have always existed, but they were never at the same level of supergirl is not superman in a lot of ways, or in the same way Batman and Batgirl, all of these things, is that when people go, when men go watch superhero movies, that is the male power fantasy, the quintessential idea of being the hyper-competent, good in any situation dude who can solve, you know, it still exists in a realm today, what they call dad TV,
00:46:41.000which is military dramas or covert ops stuff like terminalist or anything Taylor Sheridan is doing, stuff like that.
00:46:50.000But when you try to make it for everybody, what they just did is they just put women in those roles rather than adjusting for the type of storytelling, which there are still good stories that can be told here.
00:47:27.000I'm like, bro, in a post-apocalyptic society, the women would have been taken captive and used to breed.
00:47:33.000Do you understand how messed up this movie is?
00:47:36.000They're not willing to approach that type of post-apocalyptic story anymore with any sense of realism.
00:47:42.000There was a show back in like the early 2000s called Jeremiah that was really, really good talking about stuff like that and the way warlords would crop up in different areas of the country and stuff like that.
00:47:53.000But that type of story, there is no premium put on that type of what they would consider accuracy, at least what we know of history and how war affects or when different people come into different communities, take over, and what happens.
00:48:25.000Because you ask how much do what we see represented, like you said, it's putting forward the ideals of DEI culture and making that in the storylines.
00:48:36.000But you even go back to these diverse cultures, if diversity is our strength and we love diversity, we go back to these other cultures.
00:48:41.000And I mean, do we see African myths that have these storylines?
00:48:46.000Or, you know, no one anywhere, male or female, is enjoying these storylines.
00:48:51.000Well, and the thing is, they could do that most of the time.
00:48:54.000There is the idea that you could tell a unique story from a unique culture and people would have a certain level of interest in that.
00:49:01.000But what they would rather do is slap the new coat of paint on it because they are looking to gather the largest audience possible.
00:49:07.000To them, if you tell a story unique to African culture or unique to Spanish culture, these studios are now run by corporate executives.
00:49:16.000And these corporate executives, they look at demographics and they look at focus groups and test groups.
00:49:21.000What audience is going to come out the most for this, depending on the budget for that movie, they are going to soften it and make it the most kind of mishmash bit of like, you know, cinematic oatmeal, basically, where it's all slop that runs together because they're trying to get everybody to watch.
00:49:35.000And what people actually want to see are authentic stories.
00:49:38.000And they don't realize that most people, they do not need to see themselves represented on screen to go and watch a movie.
00:49:46.000It's just not something that's actually real to people that aren't terminally online.
00:49:49.000I find that the attempt to please everybody does miss the mark because I think the thing about culture and cultural victory is when you make something that appeals to a niche and then the rest of the world sees it and they're like, holy shit, I want to become part of that.
00:50:02.000And then they change to form your niche and you build your niche.
00:50:07.000Well, I mean, that's the way I've always seen valuable art is like it, it hits us so right that it appeals to people that never even knew it could exist.
00:50:52.000That's something that anybody of any age, I think, can at least understand.
00:50:55.000Even a young person can understand because they look at their dad and they say, like, my dad doesn't know what's going on in the world either, right?
00:51:01.000And depending on how, you know, romantic, you know, how much you're willing to romanticize that type of storytelling, that speaks to men and women, young and old, but it's not designed specifically for that purpose.
00:51:11.000Men love it because of the idea of flying a jet and getting the girl.
00:51:15.000Women love the idea of it because, you know, competent men save the world for them in jets.
00:51:23.000If I was going to write a movie and there's an action movie, and should I have the guy, should there be a romantic story in the movie where the guy gets the girl at the end, or should it just be pure action?
00:51:32.000It should save the woman and the child, but he has to move on anyway.
00:53:03.000So if you, and it's like, sure, there's the, there's a portion of guys that would be like, yeah, he, he decides not to, and he's, he's got bigger things on his mind.
00:53:11.000But unless you have an integral part of the story that says he can't do this for what happens, like Terminator 2, because that was my argument.
00:53:19.000Arl Schwarzenegger's not trying to get it on with Linda Hamilton.
00:54:21.000But it's like they're being told, whether it's by feminist literature or people who study critical race theory or all these things, you can't do that now.
00:55:13.000I apologize on behalf of Ian's like, weather, guys, weather.
00:55:16.000But yeah, so I mean, it is something that's still ingrained in people.
00:55:21.000They want to find connection, and men generally want to find connection with a woman.
00:55:25.000And so, like I said, even though the men go their own ways, the MGTOW guys, like they're complaining about the fact that they can't meet women.
00:55:35.000And they say, well, it's not worth it.
00:55:36.000But that's all motivated by the fact that they're angry that they can't find a person that they think is interested in them or they don't feel like they can trust women and stuff.
00:55:45.000So the desire, the motivation is almost always for a family or to be with a woman or whatever.
00:55:58.000I just think, yeah, the point that you're bringing up is if you look throughout history and you look at some of the iconic films, it's this idea of the self-sacrificing male who restrains many of his urges and things or self-interest in order to build something larger.
00:56:13.000You notice like the old Clinton Wood movies like Pale Riot or something, you know, comes into town, restores order, then rides off in the sunset.
00:56:20.000You see it in a real, probably sort of a forgotten film now, but a classic with Shane, a famous Western, very much like that, where Shane then, having done, having overcome the, you know, the cattle barons, I believe it was either rides off, you know, into the distance.
00:56:36.000And there was something very appealing about that, as well as appealing to the guy who comes and gets the girl and saves the day.
00:56:44.000But I think what's not appealing is when those roles get all reversed, because it's not what men are looking for and who they want to be.
00:56:50.000It's not what women are looking for and what women want.
00:56:53.000And I think if we want to look at iconic films, I mean, let's go all the way back to the original Star Wars, right?
00:56:58.000There you've got Luke Skywalker shooting a grappling hook, grabs Princess Leah, they swing across, you know, some abyss, you know, in the middle of this huge ship.
00:57:06.000And he's competing or Luke's hand solo's competing with him for her affection.
00:58:09.000There's more masculine in a situation like that.
00:58:10.000I always love Vader when Luke's beaten on with the lightsaber and Vader's like, and then he goes, oh, it's like the one time you get to hear him scream and he gets his arm cut off.
00:58:20.000I will make an argument to your point earlier about getting the girl.
00:58:23.000One example would be James Bond movies where he does get the girl, but he does not stay in one place.
00:58:29.000He gets all the girls, but that might be more what they mean, which is like he gets the women, the women want him, because that's the whole James Bond power fantasy is like the men want to be him, the women want to be with him.
00:58:39.000But he's not like, like, it got bad in the Daniel Craig movies when they focused too much on after Casino Royale on how much he loved Vesper.
00:58:47.000Because I'm like, I don't really care if James Bond is in love because that's not really what James Bond is about on the structural level of the character.
00:58:54.000He at the end of the movie was like, I love you so much, I want to quit being a spy and be whatever.
00:59:42.000Congressman Seth Molton's illegal immigrant guest during the State of the Union address is referenced in police reports involving sexual assault and juveniles.
00:59:49.000Police say the Herald submitted a public records request to the Secretary of State's office in the Milford Police Department regarding two reports, one from June and the other from September of 2021, where Marcielo Gomez de Silva was apparently named as the person of interest.
01:00:03.000The Herald sought the police report number 21-23101 dated 9-15-2021 featuring Marcelo Gomes de Silva and 1-16-254 dated 6-30-21, also featuring the 19-year-old.
01:00:17.000Milford Deputy Chief John Sanchioni denied both of those requests, indicating that the police report from June 21st involves sexual assault and juveniles, and that the report from September 21st involves juveniles.
01:00:30.000The deputy chief simply wrote, The records you are requesting are not public record.
01:00:34.000In accordance with blah, blah, blah, involves a sexual assault and juveniles report, blah, blah, blah, involves juveniles.
01:00:40.000So it's pretty interesting that it seems the Democrats always side with some kind of criminal.
01:00:49.000Like beyond the fact that they're here illegally, they always hold up these people that they believe are these model immigrants that they can say, oh, you know, look, this is an illegal person.
01:01:05.000And then it always turns around and bite him in the ass because they've got some kind of criminal history that really Americans just don't want to have to.
01:01:28.000Well, because I think that, honestly, I think that Democrats believe that everybody that has committed crimes should be, you know, is required to be.
01:01:41.000They believe that if the structural issues in the United States weren't the way they are, that these people wouldn't have committed crimes.
01:01:49.000I think there are people that are more inclined to commit crimes and there are people that are less inclined to commit crimes.
01:01:54.000And the people that are more inclined to commit crimes do multiple crimes like come here illegally.
01:02:00.000There was four years of the Biden administration where the, where basically anybody that could get here was allowed to stay.
01:02:07.000There was no background checks on anyone to talk about.
01:02:10.000And so there were a lot of people that had issues in their initial, in their countries of origin, where they said, oh, I can get out of here and I'll go to the United States and I can start over or I can just stay there because the United States is allowing basically anyone to come in, right?
01:02:28.000He said, you should surge the border here for, if you can get to the border, we'll take you in.
01:02:35.000If you want to seek asylum, come here, et cetera.
01:02:37.000And they were just allowing people to come into the interior of the country.
01:02:40.000Anyone that got here, they didn't have to go to a port of entry.
01:02:43.000They didn't have to go through the normal asylum rules.
01:02:45.000They just showed up and the Biden administration let them in.
01:02:48.000So that was a gigantic magnet for people that were criminals in their countries of origin to come to the United States.
01:02:53.000And I think this is just emblematic of it.
01:02:55.000Also, that is, you know, structurally for the Democrats, that's a benefit because of what it does for the census.
01:03:01.000And then what it does is it takes advantage of the toxic levels of empathy that a lot of people in their voter base have, which means that they get to use it.
01:03:09.000It's politically expedient for them to use it as a means of growing their voting base as well as changing the demographics of whatever cities they're going to, whatever, people that are more in line with Democrat policies.
01:03:22.000And then you are the bad guy if you, for some reason, don't believe it.
01:03:24.000And the funny thing was, we saw the video, I think we talked about it last week, about the lady who she fled.
01:03:29.000Her and her partner fled to Canada and couldn't afford the rent there because it's freaking expensive to live wherever they were in Vancouver or whatever it was.
01:03:37.000And said, look, we can't apply for any of the social services.
01:03:44.000And I was like, look, I don't know what this lady's full plate of political beliefs are, but it's not hard to believe that if you fled America, fled Trump's America, that you probably have a pretty soft stance on American immigration, right?
01:03:56.000You probably think that anybody that wants to come here is, you know, it's all well and good because it's our duty to apparently help everybody else across the world.
01:04:05.000And it's all, it's weirdly, it's not even hypocrisy because it's intentional.
01:04:11.000If we didn't have such eyes on what's happening, I think this may be, maybe the first time in world history ever in human history that we know of that a society realized they were being invaded through a mass migration.
01:04:25.000It's got to always, after the fact, they find out maybe the government knows.
01:04:29.000But if the government's complicit, I mean, when the government says police search, they'll keep the population snowed out and not knowing what the fuck until they're taken over.
01:04:36.000And then they're like, see, now, but this is worse than complicit, though.
01:05:25.000But that people are treated like the bad guy when they speak out against it.
01:05:29.000I don't think that dynamics really existed much in history because we didn't have internet video to see and to complain about the problem in the acute moment.
01:05:39.000Well, you know, a lot of this goes back to demographic forecasting that they did back in the early 2000s, right?
01:05:45.000So in general, 80% of children tend to adopt the political views of their parents.
01:05:51.000And so back in the early 2000s, I mean, the Democrats did, a lot of people were talking about this, but in particular, the Democrats realized the risk for their party, which was that liberal voters are reproducing at much lower rates than conservative ones.
01:06:07.000So as the demographic trajectories were going, it would only be a short matter of time before conservatives are really outpopulating.
01:06:15.000Conservatives and moderates, moderate conservatives, are outpopulating your farther left base of the Democratic Party.
01:06:24.000And so you really did need to come up with new voters.
01:06:27.000And if they weren't going to give birth to new voters, then you have to import your new voters.
01:06:32.000So it's been a long strategy going on probably for about 20 years or more to do just this.
01:06:38.000And then it also ties in to communist interests in the United States, right?
01:06:43.000So the long-standing goal of the communist parties was to bring in people from poorer countries who would be more ideologically aligned with socialism because they would benefit the most from it.
01:06:58.000And actually Venezuela was seen to be a significant player in that because as Venezuela destabilized under its previous regimes, then it's sending more and more refugees who are liable to come eventually United States with at least more socialistically leaning proclivities, right?
01:07:18.000That's how you replace one voter demographic with another in order to maintain political power.
01:07:25.000And we see that, of course, taking place in Europe, where the elite political class of Europe is more than willing to offset the indigenous voter base of natural-born Europeans with migrants and then play to those migrant interests.
01:07:40.000We saw that in Spain just last, I think it was last week, where they gave citizenship to something like 500,000 African immigrants for the express purpose of offsetting what they called the far right.
01:08:46.000And so they're trying to convince people that these people that are here illegally, that have come in illegally, that they're vital members of the community and we can't break apart communities.
01:08:57.000They use these phrases that are politically charged and essentially emotionally charged in order to get people to feel bad because the whole suicidal empathy thing is a real phenomenon, right?
01:09:08.000So you tell people that they're actually important members of the community and we can't break up communities like that.
01:09:14.000And people are like, oh, well, we can't deport these people.
01:09:39.000When you have people from the third world come in, the way that their societies are structured and the things that they expect from their government is different.
01:09:46.000In the Somali community in Minnesota, there was a lot of people that expected if they vote for the Democrat or the person that they vote for, they expect that person to literally shield them from the law.
01:09:58.000And there was a guy in Maine that's a Somali guy.
01:10:01.000He was on camera talking to his representative saying, look, we voted for you.
01:10:05.000You have to protect us from this stuff.
01:10:07.000And he didn't mean to try to change the law.
01:10:11.000He meant literally to interpose himself between the law and the community that voted for him.
01:10:17.000We should be allowed to break the law and you protect us because we voted for you.
01:10:22.000That's totally a foreign concept in a country like the United States where, look, you can play by the rules, but the law is the same for everybody.
01:10:31.000And the notion that this person was trying to get across is if we vote for you, then we should be above the law because you should protect us.
01:11:01.000It also kind of underlines just how much the Overton window has switched in a lot of ways, where it depends on how much of a romantic view you've carried about immigration in the past.
01:11:11.000You know, a great part of the American story was the idea that the people that wanted to get here, that really did believe in what America stood for, could do so, integrate into the community, assimilate to the values that Americans had.
01:11:23.000And to most of us, depending on how far you are along the line, now that was a beautiful thing.
01:11:28.000And it was something that a lot of Americans supported and a lot of them still do.
01:11:31.000And they come up against this idea of people who have crossed the border illegally.
01:11:49.000And you're held to account to say, like, if you don't come to this, the same conclusion we do, which is that anybody can come in no matter what, you are a bad person because they're expecting you to look at somebody in the face and say, this guy who lives next door to you, you're saying he has to go, right?
01:12:04.000It's not a fair position to put them in, but it's also not a fair.
01:12:07.000You were put in that position by them.
01:12:10.000And like we were saying earlier, depending on who your elected officials are, you know, the idea of empathy goes a long way in a lot of these voting blocks.
01:12:17.000You know, part of this, this really the gross or the sad part about this situation is that they were, a lot of those people were told to come here by the guy who became president.
01:12:26.000So like, it's not like a bunch of people just came in under somebody's watch and snuck in and were like, no, now they're here.
01:12:52.000They wanted to come all the way here because America allows them more economic opportunities.
01:12:56.000And to criticize Trump, as we should, they didn't do enough about the factory farms.
01:13:01.000They didn't punish any of the companies that were incentivized to hire these people because they know that they'll face a slap on the wrist and maybe some fines and that person gets deported.
01:13:11.000They don't suffer any penalties for that.
01:13:13.000The whole point of it was to import a legitimate slave class that Republicans have paid lip service to deportations, but both parties benefit from.
01:13:23.000Yeah, I mean, as far as the employing of illegals, that's one thing that I actually agree with Democrats on.
01:13:30.000Like the DOJ should be going after businesses that employ people that are illegals.
01:13:35.000Like if you hire people that are here, if you knowingly hire illegals, you should, there should be some kind of consequences.
01:13:42.000There's part of me that thinks that you should lose your whole business if it's found that you've done it multiple times or whatever.
01:13:48.000First offense, it should be a fine that is big enough where it really affects your ability to run your twice about it.
01:14:05.000If they knew that they couldn't get work, if they knew that they couldn't rent an apartment or find some place to live, then they wouldn't come here.
01:14:12.000But they know that the government has all kinds of programs.
01:14:15.000They know that the government has all kinds of support structure for illegals that honestly frequently aren't offered to regular Americans, to American citizens.
01:14:24.000And so there are even, I mean, look, there are even programs that the government has to help people that have come here illegally or people that are seeking asylum or whatever.
01:14:32.000HHS has a program called, I forget the name of the program, but they had a program where they were basically shipping people around the country to do basically the whole trying to turn, it essentially boiled down to turning flights, right?
01:14:45.000When they were like exposing people that put on flights, we were paying for it.
01:14:49.000It was the refugee resettlement program.
01:14:51.000So you'd come here ostensibly as a refugee and they would give you a flight to somewhere around, somewhere in the country.
01:14:58.000And what it turned into was they were flying people to red places in order to try to turn them purple, you know, to try and affect the outcomes of elections.
01:15:07.000It was also a problem with the messaging that like when they were making the deportation videos, right?
01:15:11.000They're making hype reels that are basically red meat for the base.
01:15:14.000But the problem is, is like there is a large part of your voting demographic now, especially with a big tent policy, is there are people there that want those deportations, but it's hold their nose and see it done because they wouldn't have the heart to do it themselves, which is, of course, the point, like you were saying, of bringing people in was to make it harder for you to see a person have to be removed from the country because you've turned them into a person.
01:15:38.000They're no longer somebody who came here illegally.
01:15:41.000And unfortunately, it is the government's job to look at them as somebody that needs to be deported, not as the individual.
01:15:46.000So a lot of that messaging, I felt like ended up turning a lot of people away from it because a lot of the people in the middle saw those videos and they're like, you're making light of it.
01:15:55.000Like it's funny, whatever, but you lose people.
01:15:57.000And if the point here is to build your political capital, not spend your political capital, I don't think that that was the right thing to do.
01:16:03.000Right, but I kind of like the hyper personal.
01:16:05.000You probably got to see Sin Frontera, man, because like that film Kevin, a 6-7 Kevin made, kind of goes into like what happened to make all of these, you know, everyone come here and how messed up it is.
01:16:34.000It was like a joke he said to somebody outside after a show, and now 100 million people or whatever, 50 million people saw it.
01:16:40.000And he said he was getting death threats.
01:16:42.000I'm like, bro, you just burned your bridge with me because he had Donald Trump on his show like four weeks before the election and basically handed him the election with that, with that, you know, publicity and his seal of approval as a, as a comedian, and him and Rogan together.
01:16:59.000The tone-deaf nature of that video was shocking.
01:17:01.000I just thought some of them were cringe.
01:17:02.000They did one where like the DHS head was like Batman and I'm like, bro, like, like, I think that one was made while they were on, well, while the government was shut down.
01:17:11.000I'm like, who's the editor that's like working while the government is shut down to make all this stuff?
01:17:15.000To the point about the podcasters, that's a hard one because he lost a lot of the, he has since lost a lot of those podcasters that kind of helped him get elected, like the Andrew Schultz's and stuff like that.
01:17:26.000But he also can't change his business plan just because they might not have understood what he actually wanted to do.
01:17:32.000He was open and honest about what he wanted to do.
01:17:35.000A lot of people just weren't willing to look at what it was going to look like to do mass deportations.
01:17:40.000He was very clear during the entire campaign that deportations were going to happen.
01:17:45.000In fact, he was so clear that the people on the right or the more America first right, they don't think that he's done enough.
01:17:53.000So if he's lost people that were watching, you know, the Theo Vaughn show or watching Joe Rogan, that's because they didn't understand what he was actually offering or what he was saying he was going to do.
01:18:06.000Donald Trump hasn't been as extreme as the people on the far right that voted for him wanted him to.
01:18:13.000So the idea that he should do less, I think that would have actually lost him more in the long run.
01:18:56.000Is it possible that information is moving so fast now and public opinion changes so fast now that we're out of the age of like two-term presidents like back-to-back terms?
01:19:08.000Like, it feels like one of those things where like people will sour so fast on someone because of the speed in which we can get our information now.
01:19:15.000There's a fight going on between both the parties as to whether or not you're going to be more further to the left or further to the right.
01:19:22.000The Democrat Party has obviously moved significantly further to the left.
01:19:26.000You got people like Rokana, you know, postulating or bringing up the idea of a wealth tax on property that you own.
01:19:34.000So like you'd literally have to pay a tax on your net worth, which is a horrible idea.
01:21:07.000I don't know enough about business to really know, but I would think you would start a company that you would run at a loss on purpose and make it lose you 50 billion.
01:21:16.000And then you're like, see, I'm not worth so much, right?
01:21:46.000We want to get rid of people that are here illegally.
01:21:48.000That's a little further right than was acceptable, you know, say five, 10 years ago.
01:21:52.000Well, I mean, even we, how often does immigration and deportations come up and they find the old videos of Obama saying like, you can't just come here.
01:22:02.000You can't just come here and expect to exist, right?
01:22:06.000You're going to have to pay the piper if you want to do that.
01:22:08.000We're going to either send you back or whatever's going to happen.
01:22:11.000Like those views aren't all that different for most of us, but most people have memory hold it so fast that they don't realize how much things have changed.
01:22:20.000It was a border fence that they talked about back then.
01:22:23.000So like for me specifically, as somebody who still considers himself to have quite a few fairly liberal positions economically, I don't look at the right as if they like small government anymore, anyways.
01:22:38.000That's something that's actually more popular on the right as well.
01:22:42.000The idea of the libertarian right is a shrinking portion of the electorate now.
01:22:49.000I mean, they were never all that big in particular, but they really have kind of dwindled down in numbers.
01:22:55.000There's not a lot of people that are like, oh, let's really, really constrain the government.
01:22:59.000There are a lot more people nowadays that are like, all right, we're right-wing, but we want to use the government to enforce our policies and to push our agenda.
01:23:09.000And to be honest with you, as much as I used to be a libertarian, I think that because of the world that we live in, you have to use the power that you're given when you're elected, right?
01:23:21.000They don't vote for you to just not do anything.
01:23:23.000They don't vote for you to just stop the Democrats.
01:23:26.000They vote for you to do things and deliver for them.
01:23:28.000I don't think that when it comes to the right, they're looking for policies that would be considered handouts or government programs, but I do think they want to see the government exercise power that they have in favor of policies that they like.
01:23:43.000I think to your earlier question about are people so one issue-minded that it would be hard to even have a two-term presidency.
01:23:52.000I think we are in something unique in history, which is America as a country has gone through a period of incredible disillusionment.
01:24:03.000For example, freedom of speech, right?
01:24:04.000When I was growing up, up until 2020, freedom of speech was seen as sanctuariesanct.
01:24:09.000And then suddenly everybody's getting canceled for speech crimes.
01:24:14.000And most of those crimes that you're getting canceled for was actually being accurate about the truth and the science and about the pandemic, right?
01:24:22.000And so ultimately, and that's just piled on, right?
01:24:27.000And now, you know, it used to be like real conspiracy theory land to think that RFK Jr. was, excuse me, John F. Kennedy was assassinated by like a conspiratorial plot.
01:24:41.000And now we're like, yeah, it looks like it was our intelligence agencies, right?
01:24:46.000And so what's happening is we're becoming disillusioned over one thing after another so that the institutions that were seen to be trustworthy, like the USDA, when I was in sixth grade, I mean, we'd see films about how the USDA had come and made our food supply safe.
01:25:02.000And there was a huge level of trust I think Americans had in our institutions that has really been shattered over the last five to six years.
01:25:11.000And people are now figuring out how do we really arrive at the truth and move forward.
01:25:16.000And so the good thing about that is we're so much more aware.
01:25:20.000And we're very aware now on issues of big pharma and the stuff that I'm focused on, on really medical science misinformation and false science put out in order to advance the interests of really big corporate interests that are putting out products that are harmful to people.
01:25:40.000So the awakening has been very important.
01:25:42.000But I think the flip side of it is that we can become too simplistic in jumping to our conclusions, right?
01:25:51.000One of the best articles written explaining what went on with Trump's executive order on glyphosate was written by a woman, Dr. Sherry Tenpenny.
01:25:59.000Okay, now Dr. Sherry Tenpenny has been at the forefront of Maha, at the forefront of warning about all of the things that seemed like conspiracy theories at first that turned out to be totally true.
01:26:11.000And she's able to do that because of her medical expertise.
01:26:13.000So when she comes out saying, hey, Maha, don't get bent out of shape over this.
01:26:17.000This is more complex because of our dependency on glyphosate, right?
01:26:23.000We don't just, you know, this is a, we're in a, we're in a fix now that we got to slowly extract from, right?
01:26:29.000So, but, but I really appreciate that kind of nuanced, nuanced analysis because these things are more complex.
01:26:39.000I feel like that with the Epstein stuff.
01:26:40.000Like, whereas with glyphosate, if we just flat out removed it from the supply overnight, we'd probably have to see a famine, perhaps starvation.
01:26:46.000Maybe she's concerned with that disruption.
01:27:14.000Texas Demon nominee Tallarico's past remarks on abortion, race, and gender draw scrutiny.
01:27:20.000If you have gone to his ex page and looked at anything 2020 or previous, it is a treasure trove of basically memeable stuff.
01:27:29.000From Fox News, while running as a moderate with bipartisan appeal, Texas state rep James Tallarico, who defeated rep Jasmine Crockett for the Democratic Senate nomination, has a history of making controversial statements on matters of race, religion, gender, border security, and beyond.
01:27:45.000With Tallarico in the national spotlight for the first time, many commentators and strategists are resurfacing some of his past remarks.
01:27:51.000Among them is a 2021 video of Tallarico at the Texas House floor in Austin opposing a bill to ban men from women's sports and claiming that God is non-binary.
01:27:59.000God is both masculine and feminine and everything in between.
01:28:02.000God is non-binary, said Tallarico, adding, trans children are God's children made in God's own image.
01:28:08.000A self-identified Presbyterian seminarian, Tallarico cast many of his political stances in the Christian and biblical language.
01:28:14.000However, while speaking on a January episode of the Esler Klein show, Tallarico appeared to equate Christianity with other religions, including Hinduism and Islam.
01:28:23.000I believe that Jesus Christ reveals that reality to us, but I also believe that other traditions reveal that reality in their own ways with their own simple structures.
01:28:32.000And I've learned more about my tradition by learning more about Buddhism, Hinduism, and Islam and Judaism.
01:28:37.000And so I see these beautiful faith traditions as circling the same truth about the universe, about the cosmos, he said.
01:29:40.000I tend to be, you know, unless you are somebody who is deeply into your religion, politicians being religious always feels a lot of time as if it's something that they put on as part of their voter demographic, depending on, you know, their party and stuff like that.
01:29:54.000Yeah, so a seminarian means that he's gone to school about it.
01:29:57.000He's got to have an understanding of the theology.
01:30:00.000He also, he's got to be wrong because I was reliably told by Ariana Grande that God was a woman.
01:30:19.000I mean, these things are, there are things in certain religions that are exclusionary of other religions.
01:30:26.000Like, you can't be a Christian and say, oh, you know, the Hindus got some stuff right when it comes to spirituality.
01:30:32.000Like, the basic tenet of being a Christian, whatever your denomination is, you believe that Christ is the Son of God and that he died and was resurrected and that was like the payment for sin.
01:30:43.000That's how human beings, that all human beings are fallible, all man sins, and Christ paid the ultimate price for your sins, right?
01:30:51.000If you don't believe that, or you believe something in addition to that or whatever, you're not actually a Christian.
01:30:58.000I will counter a little bit because I think that Christianity in the beginning was an amalgamation of different beliefs, like different stories, and then they created a unified story.
01:31:08.000So like we could do that with all the religions of earth to create a new religion.
01:31:13.000You are welcome to believe that, but Christians don't.
01:31:16.000Well, they've compiled a bunch of books.
01:32:16.000Anything else means that you don't believe that thing.
01:32:20.000You know, the most depressing part about politics is it turns existential and theological discussions into a total bummer.
01:32:29.000This isn't my wheelhouse, but I know that this dude is like, this is the worst of the worst when it comes to having to have these discussions, right?
01:32:36.000Because it's like, I can listen to what he has to say, know that he's ideologically captured.
01:32:42.000If not, if he doesn't believe it himself, he's ideologically captured by whoever his potential voting base is.
01:32:48.000I don't know if he's at a woman's summit in that photo, but it's all women behind him in that photo.
01:32:53.000And it really does turn these types of discussions, which 15 years ago with your friends might have been interesting.
01:32:59.000Now it's all a basis of finding political power.
01:33:03.000And I mean, that's really where these kind of debates belong, right?
01:33:06.000They belong, they're theological, theological debates, and you can have theological debates with your friends.
01:33:11.000You can talk about that amongst yourselves, or you can go to debate philosophy and stuff.
01:33:19.000But when you're taking an established religion and wearing it like a skin suit and saying, oh, well, I kind of believe these things, but in front of this crowd, I'm going to say things like God is non-binary, which is completely not true, right?
01:33:35.000Like the idea of God being non-binary, God is pretty clear about what God is.
01:33:40.000Just because God made women doesn't mean God is a woman or God isn't both.
01:33:51.000But yeah, like these religions have a serious history and they have an understanding of themselves that Tallarico is just basically using in a way to attract votes.
01:34:08.000For the record, he earned his Master of Divinity degree from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary.
01:34:21.000He's the one, if I remember correctly, that was involved in like on late night TV, and they didn't give Jasmine Crockett the same amount at times.
01:34:29.000He's the guy that got it over Crockett.
01:34:31.000And now Jasmine Crockett blaming Republicans for cheating.
01:34:34.000So literally, there's an equal time rule where if he gets time on one of the night shows, Jasmine Crockett is supposed to get an equal amount of time.
01:34:43.000She didn't get that time, and now she's decided she's going to blame Republicans for the cheating, even though it was clear that it was Tallarico and I think it was Jimmy Kimmel.
01:35:36.000The current president of the United States calling you a dummy and you think that that is a good advertisement.
01:35:43.000What you're doing is proving that the president is right.
01:35:46.000You know, I'm doing a quick look too here at the focus and the emphases of the seminary here, according to ChatGPT.
01:35:54.000And so what we're finding is Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, you know, it's described here as emphasizing ministers who are preparing to engage in justice, inclusion, and community service.
01:36:05.000So a big social justice emphasis and inclusivity, affirming stance on LGBTQ and inclusion and ordination, right?
01:36:14.000So we're talking about bringing in that group into actually ordained pastoral roles and supporting the full participation of this community in church leadership.
01:36:34.000I've got a master's in the history of Christian thought from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.
01:36:39.000And one of the things I was very interested in were the movements in the early 20th century among the liberal theological liberalizers.
01:36:53.000And it's really very much like what we're seeing today.
01:36:55.000And this is a manifestation of it, of wanting to drop all the things that might be, say, offensive about the religion or maybe offensive to some modern views of science.
01:37:08.000You know, it's really interesting where things have gone on that because people are much more open to the ideas of the supernatural and miracles and things today than they were just 30, 40 years ago.
01:37:17.000But when you go back, you see how they were trying to adapt to those trends in their society and to say, well, let's get away from the idea of miracles.
01:37:27.000Was Jesus really born of a virgin birth?
01:37:30.000Did he really walk over all these things?
01:37:33.000And then what you do instead is you focus on things like social justice or the good things that the religion could do because you no longer really have any more actual historical or symbolic content, right?
01:37:48.000And so I think this is what we're seeing here with Tellarico: that's just an extension of that.
01:37:54.000And so now we have full DEI and religion.
01:37:56.000And just as we were looking at it in video gaming or film or everything else, it's not appealing to very many people.
01:38:05.000And this is exactly what happened with the mainstream denominations: the more they went this direction, the more they lost interest because either Christianity is true or it's not.
01:38:12.000So they're trying to justify faith kind of using science because they don't believe it anymore.
01:38:18.000And now they're coming up with like these different various DEI type beat things to weave in there to kind of replace what they now think is like mythologic.
01:38:30.000Yes, if you go back to the 1920s in particular, there was a movement because science showed that nature was just an unbroken chain of cause and effect.
01:38:38.000There was a big move away that miracles could even be a real thing, right?
01:39:15.000For one thing, I actually think the broader community, easier access of communication that we have, I mean, there's much more open discussion.
01:39:24.000And so it's much easier just to talk about taboo subjects, right?
01:39:30.000Whereas before you go back to the 1980s, just people didn't talk about these things.
01:39:35.000Even in, say, like a church Bible study, if you were reading a passage where Jesus heals, you know, it'd be some brave person to say, hey, have you who's had answers to healing?
01:39:46.000And then suddenly all these people would start talking about it.
01:39:48.000But even in church settings, they didn't always feel comfortable talking about some things sometimes because they felt like it's just, this is really out there.
01:39:58.000And that just goes to show about how common cultural values really start shaping what people feel free to talk about.
01:40:03.000I also think going back to there's a fantastic video of a presentation at Oxford by a scholar named Craig Keener.
01:40:15.000And he did a two-volume series back in 2014.
01:40:18.000And this, I think, really does get to your question.
01:40:20.000So 2014 was a turning point when scholarship in universities in certain niche fields like science and religion started saying, is there more to the reports of miracles than we've been given credit coming from our scientistic background.
01:40:37.000And so Craig Keener at Oxford in 2014 gives this incredible synopsis of what he had found in, it was at the Ian Ramsey Center.
01:40:51.000It's an hour of amazing documentation where he went around the world because his wife's African.
01:40:56.000And he said, you know, their family had stories of miracles that were just mind-blowing.
01:41:00.000And so he wanted to see, he's a New Testament scholar.
01:41:03.000So he wanted to learn more about this.
01:41:05.000And he really went around the world gathering like scientific level quality testimonies of actual miracles.
01:41:13.000And so then that led following to Eric Metaxas picked up on that and wrote a fantastic book called Miracles.
01:41:20.000And I think it's really grown since then.
01:41:22.000There's been some high-powered academics in this field.
01:41:27.000Candice Brown, I think she's at the University of Indiana, took this subject up and they took it up seriously, right?
01:41:34.000To say, what are people really reporting in their experience of answered prayer?
01:41:40.000And now we've seen things like a person like Lee Strobel appearing on Tucker Carlson's show.
01:41:46.000I mean, it's gone really, that momentum has really moved where people are asking these questions openly.
01:41:52.000What I was thinking about systems, I mentioned systems earlier.
01:41:54.000Like people are like, I want, if we get rid of glyphosate, it'll fix.
01:41:57.000You know, how come my cause isn't creating the effect I expect?
01:42:00.000Miracles can't happen because what's, but you realize like systems, we're in a larger system than we can perceive.
01:42:07.000And there may be a cause outside of human perception or unmeasurable with current tools that's prayer may be doing, I mean, that's my personal take on it.
01:42:16.000Very much the interconnected nature of the fabric of reality is apparent at this point.
01:42:21.000I mean, if you study space-time and you've watched Nassim Harriman's stuff on the source child proton, you know that we're in this like web of density that's interconnected, you know, interfering with itself at the speed of light, transmitting information.
01:42:49.000And then the mainstreaming of quantum physics in 2007 through the internet video and all the thousands of people now talking about prayer, but their own version of it.
01:43:01.000When you go from a worldview where you just think everything's like a mechanistic system, which goes back to the philosopher Descartes, right?
01:43:08.000But the idea is everything's a mechanistic system and there's no room for anything but the gears, right?
01:43:13.000And then you switch from that to understanding quantum physics, and now you have a very believable, I'm going to say, platform through which a omniscient, omnipotent being could very easily interact and engage our universe.
01:43:29.000So, all right, we're going to jump to super chats right now.
01:43:31.000So, smash the like button, share the show with everybody know, share it with all your friends.
01:43:35.000Head on over to rumble.com because in about 20 minutes, we're going to be doing the Rumble After Show where we can talk about some things there.
01:43:42.000We intend to talk about some things there that we cannot talk about on YouTube.
01:44:13.000You made cameos in Skybrows videos with your fake band, The Shadow Band, in Million Amelia's, Joe's Rogane, Homestone Lone 2, and NVIDIA F you Up.
01:44:37.000He knows how to prompt an AI, definitely.
01:44:39.000So Wolf374171 says, I don't remember anyone calling for Gnome to be fired, but okay, I guess.
01:44:48.000How about an actual problem named Bondi?
01:44:51.000Yeah, I think that that's a very popular take.
01:44:54.000People would like to see Pam Bondi taken out.
01:44:57.000But again, I think that it comes back to the situation of who is actually going to get confirmed by the Senate.
01:45:02.000There's a lot of people say, you know, we got to fire this person.
01:45:05.000We got to fire this person because they're not producing the results we want and we like.
01:45:09.000And whereas I agree with the sentiment, they're not producing the results that we were looking for.
01:45:15.000It also has to be a person replacing them that will realistically get confirmed by the Senate.
01:45:20.000And considering there's a boatload of appointments that still haven't been confirmed, I don't know that there are a lot of people on a list of people that would actually be able to get the job that we get approved by the Senate.
01:45:31.000Maybe he'll just challenge all of them to a fight.
01:45:34.000And if he beats all of them, he gets confirmed.
01:45:36.000I mean, it would be cool, wouldn't it?
01:46:16.000Look, you can be totally right about that, but what I said about getting someone to replace her is still true.
01:46:21.000Like, I know people hate to think about how the sausage is made in Washington, right?
01:46:26.000Like, everybody likes to say, just do this, just do that.
01:46:29.000But there are so many processes and procedures that have to be gone through when you're doing anything in D.C.
01:46:35.000This is part of why people get so frustrated with D.C., part of why things happen so slowly, because there is a process and a procedure for basically everything that happens in D.C.
01:46:45.000And all of them are designed to slow things down.
01:46:49.000Nobody wants D.C. moving fast because then you'll end up having you'll end up having changes that are detrimental and they won't be well thought through.
01:47:01.000The House is only two years for a reason because the population will have their opinions will sway depending on what's going on.
01:47:08.000So you have the House to represent the people.
01:47:10.000They only get two years, but the Senate is six years and that's supposed to be more deliberative.
01:47:17.000The federal government isn't supposed to do all the crap that it does.
01:47:19.000And so I get, you know, when you're starting to pull stuff out, you want it to happen fast so that way we can get rid of all the bureaucracy and stuff.
01:47:25.000And I agree completely, but it doesn't change the fact that the way that the government, the federal government is structured is intended to move slow because it's not supposed to be able to do 90% of the stuff that it does.
01:47:36.000It also feels like that's all kind of gone out the window because the Supreme Court is very much politicized now in a way that it never was before, or at least that it shouldn't have been before, right?
01:47:47.000When we got our last cat that we bought from this lady, she's, you know, she had like tons of cats that she, you know, kept and helped whatever.
01:47:59.000She wasn't like a, I think she was a business owner or whatever, but she had a sticker on the back of her car that said pack the courts.
01:48:07.000And for people that are unfamiliar, that means get, expand the court and put more people on that agree with you.
01:48:14.000And I mean, if you, if you do that, you're going to end up with like a 20-person court, and it's going to be just, it's going to be just another political tool.
01:48:21.000And there are people that are going to say, well, you know, Thomas is so conservative and he's ideologically motivated.
01:48:25.000And there are people that are going to say, well, Jackson is so politically motivated and et cetera, et cetera.
01:48:31.000And it's like, yeah, that's the truth.
01:48:35.000And just adding people to the court isn't going to fix anything because when the other team gets in power, they're just going to go ahead and add more people.
01:48:42.000And it's just going to be a never-ending expansion of the court.
01:48:46.000And then it'll be a situation where the court doesn't have any authority or nobody trusts it as it is.
01:49:45.000I was hesitant to bring it up, but people have been saying, you know, it's sad because people want to hear me sing and feel like they can't super chat.
01:53:07.000I don't even know why I say the numbers.
01:53:08.000If your response to the spicy group chat is anything other than I want to get a beer with those guys, you're a joyless dork.
01:53:14.000I mean, look, some of the stuff they said, you might not want to admit that you want to get a beer with them, considering, you know, it was pretty uncouth.
01:53:23.000It was definitely stuff that you don't want people to know you said.
01:53:26.000Some of those people could 110% mean that.
01:53:29.000Some of the other ones could just be, you know, going along because that's the vibe of the room.
01:53:34.000I guess it depends on how joyless you are in the conversation are you having.
01:53:37.000Are you going to talk about it and laugh about the stupidity of it?
01:53:40.000Are you going to talk about the expediency of getting caught saying stuff like that when you're trying to supposedly make things happen for your party?
01:55:44.000And I said, I said, like, I have to defend your right to wear sweatpants to the airport, but they just now make it a law that you have to wear your headphones.
01:55:53.000Yeah, you definitely should not be walking around the airport with your music playing on your phone.
01:55:59.000And you shouldn't be talking on your phone like this, hollering.
01:56:08.000Be quiet when you're in public places.
01:56:10.000That's one of the numerous wonderful things about Japan.
01:56:13.000They're all very polite and very quiet.
01:56:15.000They're not trying to, you know, be super loud and annoy everybody.
01:56:20.000Chain Swarm 3 says, Wow is made by woke women for woke women these days.
01:56:24.000The story is all about trauma and how hard having trauma is and it's boring AF.
01:56:30.000Look, you want to have an adventure series that has adventure.
01:56:34.000You want to see, you know, horror games be actually scary.
01:56:38.000And apparently, the effort to make things palatable for everybody so that way you can make the most broad player base as you possibly can, that's watering it down and it's actually not working.
01:56:55.000Wolf Bain650 says, Saturday is my son's second birthday.
01:56:58.000Phil, could you sing happy birthday for him?
01:57:34.000Yeah, the whole like, oh, women are 48% of gamers, like that's because they're playing Candy Crush.
01:57:38.000I don't even know if I necessarily believe that they're actually doing that for the sake of making more money.
01:57:43.000I think a lot of it is just being ideologically poisoned and willing to sacrifice.
01:57:48.000The people that are making these decisions are the middle managers, and they're basically browbeating the people in upper management who aren't listening to the actual fan base.
01:58:06.000I think that they've used that as an excuse.
01:58:07.000They say they managed to skew the numbers because they say all video games, Candy Crush, and mobile games like that are among the video games.
01:58:15.000So they say, look, we should definitely allow diversity in this game because look at the women are 48% of mobile games.
01:58:22.000And look, that opens up our market so much more broadly.
01:58:26.000But the reality of the situation is women are not really generally sitting down to play Worlds of Warcraft or any of these other types of games.
02:00:31.000When you get one where somebody's like, keeping with Tim Cast traditions, I'm here with the birth of my son, Adolph, and then you'll know that it was fantastic.
02:02:28.000Yeah, if you want to follow us on X, go to at Safe underscore Blood3.
02:02:34.000That's a real way to keep up on what we're doing and the information that we think is really important to people helping to flourish here in the future.
02:03:14.000We talked about Marvel, whether James Gunn might be leaving DC, going back to Marvel.
02:03:18.000If any of that stuff interests you, you should go over there, check out the channel, perhaps sign up for a membership because we're going to be doing more stuff like that.
02:04:29.000And you'll feed me for placid mistake.
02:04:35.000And we'll be a little bit of your own weight.
02:04:41.000You're finding a way, you're finding a way to me embrace you see me go and you might need to know another way Okay,
02:05:12.000Your friends slide back the door Cause they're carefree or ignorant whores.
02:05:22.000They don't see that You're driving me mad, Letting monsters Under the bed And you're tugging at the sheets, pulling out the keys to lock them down.
02:05:39.000They'll be clawing up the legs, limiting everything that's left around.
02:09:07.000He has a business that really just touching on the topic at all is kind of verboten on YouTube because he was involved with safe vaccines and with Essentially, actually, why don't you go ahead and give us an outline of it so that the issue of vaccine safety is what's central.
02:09:28.000And the course, since the narrative still is that they're safe and effective, although that's being questioned more, that's you know, verboten topic on YouTube.
02:09:35.000But yeah, what we do at Safe Blood is we're basically a registry of non-mRNA vaccinated blood donors that we match with anyone who needs a blood transfusion, who, for whatever reason, wants to avoid potential vaccine components or their products, right, like spike protein, mRNA, these things that have been very injurious to some people, they can be transferred through the blood.
02:10:01.000And so, if you're someone who hasn't had the vaccine, right, and you don't want first exposure through a blood transfusion, or you have had the vaccine, we're talking about the COVID mRNA vaccines, and you want to, and you've had an adverse reaction, right?
02:10:17.000And so you don't want further exposure.
