00:03:05.000 We have Kevin Sorbo.
00:03:07.000 I'm here.
00:03:07.000 It's good to be back.
00:03:08.000 It's been a couple of years.
00:03:09.000 So it's nice.
00:03:10.000 I got the new digs here since I last been here.
00:03:12.000 It's pretty impressive.
00:03:14.000 Most people know who you are, but for the people that don't, please present yourself.
00:03:17.000 Well, I'm an actor, director, producer.
00:03:19.000 I was Hercules for seven years.
00:03:20.000 I'll brag a little bit, the most watched TV show in the world back in the nineties, 176 countries.
00:03:25.000 And then Dramada, the first show Gene Roddenberry wrote after Star Trek, I was Captain Dylan Hunt, first Captain after Kirk.
00:03:30.000 And then since then over ninety movies, I got four new ones coming out.
00:03:33.000 Awesome.
00:03:34.000 And three new documentaries, The Dun and the Can.
00:03:35.000 I've shot three new ones this year.
00:03:37.000 They'll be out next year, so I'm staying busy.
00:03:39.000 Busy guy, huh?
00:03:40.000 Complete.
00:03:41.000 Tate is here.
00:03:42.000 It's true, producer Tate Brown here.
00:03:44.000 I'm just blessed to be at here.
00:03:49.000 I mean, let's get into it.
00:03:50.000 I'm excited.
00:03:51.000 We got the legendary Alad as well.
00:03:52.000 Hey, thank you.
00:03:53.000 Good evening, everyone.
00:03:54.000 I'm Alad Elijahu, White House correspondent here at Timcast.
00:03:58.000 I don't know, President AI skeptic as well.
00:04:01.000 I could get into that and other things later on the show.
00:04:04.000 We can get into that.
00:04:05.000 Okay, so we're going to jump right into it from CNN.
00:04:08.000 Trump escalates attacks against Smithsonian museums, says there's too much focus on how bad slavery was.
00:04:14.000 Now, that's not what he said.
00:04:17.000 He said that there was a lot, he said a lot more than that.
00:04:20.000 But of course, the legacy media will do everything they can to say Donald Trump is a racist.
00:04:25.000 He's an evil bad man.
00:04:27.000 He's orange.
00:04:28.000 You should all hate him.
00:04:29.000 So from CNN though President Donald Trump escalated his campaign to purge cultural institutions of materials that conflict with his political directives on Tuesday, alleging museums were too focused on highlighting negative aspects of American history, including how bad slavery was.
00:04:45.000 In a truth social post, Trump directed his advocates to conduct a review of museums, comparing the effort with his crackdown on universities across the country.
00:04:54.000 The Smithsonian is out of control where everything discusses how horrible our country is, how bad slavery was and how uncompleted the downtrodden have been.
00:05:01.000 Nothing about success, nothing about brightness, nothing about the future.
00:05:04.000 Trump wrote.
00:05:06.000 I mean, where's the lie, right?
00:05:08.000 This is pretty standard when it comes to academia, when it comes to, you know, things like museums and stuff.
00:05:16.000 It really doesn't focus on anything positive about the United States.
00:05:22.000 You know, so CNN went on, Trump's comments come after, come days after the White House announced an unprecedented sweeping review of the Smithsonian Institute, which runs the nation's major public museums.
00:05:33.000 The initiative, a trio of top Trump Aides wrote in a letter to Smithsonian Institution Secretary Lonnie Bunch III last week, aims to ensure alignment with the President's directive to celebrate American exceptionalism.
00:05:46.000 Remove divisive or party narratives and restore confidence in our shared cultural institutions.
00:05:52.000 I'm not sure how that's a bad thing.
00:05:54.000 I mean, Kevin, what do you do?
00:05:56.000 Well, you know, everything's racist, right?
00:05:57.000 Everything's Nazi, everything.
00:05:59.000 It's just how this has been going on for decades.
00:06:01.000 It just gets old.
00:06:02.000 And when Trump talks about that, it's I look at liberals every day, every night they go to bed angry and every morning they wake up angry.
00:06:10.000 And it's like, what can I be pissed off about today?
00:06:12.000 And this is something I want to jump on for, because reality is every country has good things, every country has had bad things, every single country.
00:06:19.000 Why not in the museum?
00:06:20.000 You can have what they got in there, but why not what he said?
00:06:22.000 Why not put things that make America great?, make America the country everyone wants to come to.
00:06:27.000 And you just get bashed for that.
00:06:29.000 It doesn't matter what Trump says or does.
00:06:31.000 I posted it on my ex account.
00:06:33.000 I said, if Trump said air is beautiful and a wonderful big thing, they would start suffocating themselves.
00:06:37.000 This is what they do.
00:06:39.000 So one of the lines that stack out to me is the how bad slavery was, right?
00:06:45.000 And I would push back on that and say how bad slavery is because slavery is still practiced in Africa, in Africa, still practiced all over the Middle East.
00:06:54.000 And it is a bad thing.
00:06:55.000 But the one, one of the things that they're leaving out is there's no slavery in the United States.
00:07:01.000 There's no slavery in.
00:07:03.000 Well, arguably the Fourteenth Amendment made it okay for to enslave people if they go through the court system, but chattel slavery has been ended.
00:07:11.000 There's no slavery in Europe, and it was the British that actually ended slavery.
00:07:17.000 Before we did, before we did.
00:07:18.000 Before the United States, yeah, around the world, and that kind of, you know, that kind of, or that truth, that honest fact that the British were the first to, in human history, to end slavery, because slavery was practiced, you know, by all human beings.
00:07:35.000 Stop.
00:07:37.000 Slavery was practiced by all human beings.
00:07:40.000 The fact that the British were the first to end it is never mentioned in any of the early 1800s, I believe they abolished it before we took us a war and 600,000 deaths before we abolished it.
00:07:54.000 You can still talk about the sex trade though.
00:07:56.000 There's no question there.
00:07:56.000 That is a former slavery.
00:07:58.000 But that's not what this issue was about.
00:08:00.000 But in the United States, if you are found to have trafficked people, we arrest you.
00:08:04.000 We throw you in jail.
00:08:06.000 And we free the people that were being trafficked.
00:08:10.000 So the way that they cast the United States in places like the Smithsonian, and we went over a little bit of this the other day about.
00:08:18.000 about the way that white privilege or what whiteness is and stuff, the way they cast people is actually counterfactual because they don't talk about the fact that white people were the first people to end slavery, the British, that they went around the world and didn't just end it in one place, they ended it in the whole British Empire.
00:08:39.000 And they, you know, a lot of people died doing it.
00:08:41.000 There was a lot of fighting over it.
00:08:41.000 They fought.
00:08:43.000 So I think that it's totally unfair to cast the United States as some unique evil.
00:08:50.000 Take, do you think that this it's something that is going to set Americans in, you know, set them up and make them get all up in arms?
00:09:04.000 Well, I mean, I think Western governments, broadly speaking, I mean the US, the UK, France, they just their it's their entire history curriculum is just meant to demoralize their own people.
00:09:14.000 I mean, because if you go, like, I've been to a lot of countries.
00:09:16.000 I've been to Qatar, been to Kenya, South Africa, Israel, Japan, and I always love going to the national museums in these countries because they're proud of their heritage and they're proud of what their people have accomplished, and the entire museum is just filled with their highlights.
00:09:31.000 It's like their highlight reel.
00:09:32.000 But then you go to the Smithsonian or you go to the British Museum in London or you go to the National Museum in France.
00:09:38.000 And every exhibit that they have there is just pre-built with an entire paragraph, like a Star Wars crawl style apology for everything that you're about to see in this exhibit.
00:09:48.000 Land acknowledgments and the like.
00:09:49.000 So if you're like a little five year old in Washington, DC, you're visiting Washington, DC, you know, from the heartland, or if you're from England, visiting London, going to your National Museum, and you just see an apology before every single exhibit, that's going to set in your mind that, oh, I'm evil.
00:09:49.000 Yeah.
00:10:05.000 My country is evil.
00:10:06.000 My people are evil.
00:10:07.000 And people around the world outside of the West don't have that problem.
00:10:11.000 Do you think it's a bad thing to cast your own country in a positive light considering the fact that you every country does country things, right?
00:10:19.000 Nations do nation state things and sometimes those things are not good for other nation states or other people.
00:10:25.000 But do you think that it's a bad thing to cast your own country in a positive light or do you think that you should actually be as critical of your own country as you possibly can be?
00:10:34.000 I think you should be fair and call balls balls and strikes strikes.
00:10:37.000 I believe the president's greater point here is that the Smithsonian institutions are choosing to focus on the worst things about our country and not focus on the way on I think this is a battle of greater narratives.
00:10:48.000 Are we a country founded based on white supremacy and that our founders are irredeemably bad or is our country about overcoming and trying to live up to the values in our constitution, about how we overcame slavery, how we liberated Europe, how we acted as a bulwark against communism, or should we focus on all of our country's shortcomings and make our and believe that our country is irredeemable because of them?
00:11:09.000 Have we lately acted as a bulwark against communism?
00:11:12.000 I definitely believe so.
00:11:14.000 For a while we did, not lately.
00:11:16.000 I mean, depending on who you ask, but and I think it depends on whose values you ask, because I think people like those in the Libertarian Institute aren't act as a bulwark against communism, but I believe people like Trump and the Trump administration manufacturingly do.
00:11:32.000 I definitely do, manifestly do.
00:11:34.000 I think that's the bigger point here.
00:11:36.000 What are the values we choose to focus on?
00:11:38.000 Having said all that, I will say the Black History Museum is a blemish on the National Mall in Washington, DC.
00:11:44.000 Just architecturally that is, it's a ugly building.
00:11:46.000 It's like an ugly brown, just if you guys wanted to pull up a picture of it, it's just, it doesn't fit in with the architecture of the rest of the National Mall.
00:11:55.000 But I don't think that's what Trump was talking about here.
00:11:57.000 It's like a Toblerone.
00:11:58.000 You guys know which one I'm talking about?
00:11:59.000 It's like the couple Toblerone bars.
00:12:01.000 Yeah, it seems to be very out of place.
00:12:04.000 The thing with the Smithsonian and why this is so embarrassing is because this is in our capital.
00:12:08.000 This is where look at that thing.
00:12:10.000 thousands of tourists visit.
00:12:12.000 I mean stuff like this.
00:12:13.000 It's like thousands of tourists coming from all around the world and they see this and they see us apologizing.
00:12:17.000 I mean that's a terrible thing.
00:12:18.000 But look what they pass as art.
00:12:20.000 The liberals love ugliness.
00:12:22.000 Tell me, Jawas aren't going to come out.
00:12:25.000 It's weird to me what they do with their architecture.
00:12:26.000 Tell me, Jawas aren't going to come out and they're going to shoot your robot and they're going to take it.
00:12:30.000 What's a Jawa?
00:12:30.000 What?
00:12:33.000 I thought that was another AI.
00:12:33.000 Okay.
00:12:35.000 No, no, no.
00:12:36.000 Robot or something.
00:12:37.000 No.
00:12:37.000 But anyone that's familiar with the old Star Wars would recognize that.
00:12:43.000 But it does.
00:12:43.000 It looks like the Jawas, you know, big transport.
00:12:45.000 Anyways, it does look ugly.
00:12:47.000 And I do think that it's worth a society, at least, like you said, calling balls and strikes.
00:12:56.000 We shouldn't hide the fact that there was slavery.
00:12:58.000 We shouldn't hide the fact that there was Jim Crow.
00:13:01.000 But we should highlight the fact that those things ended, that we do not endorse those things currently, that we got rid of slavery in the United States, that six hundred, like you said, six hundred thousand people died.
00:13:13.000 More people died at Gettysburg in one battle than died in the, than Americans died in the whole Vietnam War.
00:13:20.000 Well, more people died in that, in that, the Civil War than all of our wars combined together.
00:13:24.000 So that's quite 600,000 of our own people as well.
00:13:28.000 So this is sort of what we're stuck at.
00:13:30.000 But here's the problem.
00:13:31.000 It boils down to where we are in the education system as well and through our universities because we're not teaching civics to kids.
00:13:36.000 We don't want people to know it's we the people.
00:13:39.000 They don't want kids to know that.
00:13:40.000 They don't want to teach them real history anymore.
00:13:42.000 I mean, it's just incredible.
00:13:43.000 When I was in school, I took American history, Far Eastern studies, and Russian studies.
00:13:47.000 That was in my public school.
00:13:48.000 It was amazing.
00:13:49.000 Where did you grow up getting to know?
00:13:51.000 I grew up in a little town called Mound, Minnesota.
00:13:54.000 It's about 25 miles west of Minneapolis, where unfortunately Minnesota's turned into California with its politics.
00:14:00.000 But they still have a pretty good public education system to this day.
00:14:03.000 But back then, it was amazing.
00:14:05.000 I really was very fortunate where I grew up.
00:14:06.000 It's fascinating because on issues like the Civil War.
00:14:08.000 But when it comes to issues like the Civil War, as I understand in some southern states, they actually teach it as the war of northern aggression.
00:14:12.000 That's not how I was taught.
00:14:14.000 I don't think I'm inventing that.
00:14:15.000 I believe that's what I never taught in the South.
00:14:18.000 Yeah, I think I'm sure.
00:14:19.000 Oh, not more.
00:14:20.000 I don't think that it's currently that way.
00:14:21.000 I think it's probably in the 60s it was like that.
00:14:24.000 I don't imagine that after the Civil Rights Movement, I don't, I don't imagine that that was the case.
00:14:28.000 But or at least after the Department of Education.
00:14:31.000 Well, now you're seeing a reaction, like there was a story today, this morning or last night or this morning, where the state of Oklahoma, their Board of Education, they want to pass a mandatory exam for all inbound teachers that are coming from California or New York.
00:14:44.000 And they basically want to make them take a patriot test.
00:14:47.000 They're going to administer this.
00:14:49.000 I think Prager, Prager, you might be behind it.
00:14:52.000 Good.
00:14:53.000 But yeah, I mean, because they, I mean, you see these TikToks on Twitter of these teachers.
00:14:57.000 I mean, who knows where these people come from, which sewer they emerge from.
00:15:00.000 So yeah, I mean, I think Oklahoma's setting the standard.
00:15:02.000 Well, either be an Antifa member or be a public school teacher in California.
00:15:05.000 It was a tough decision.
00:15:06.000 Look, I mean, Oregon just had some, I don't know, they passed something where students don't have to be able to read or do math to graduate high school.
00:15:13.000 So what are they doing in school besides putting up different flags?
00:15:13.000 Go figure.
00:15:16.000 Well, what they're actually doing is they're learning how to be political activists.
00:15:19.000 Yeah.
00:15:19.000 Yeah.
00:15:20.000 Because if you can actually, if you can make children into political activists before they're even teens or whatever, if you can awaken a critical racial consciousness or awaken a critical consciousness in them, not only do you make them more neurotic and make them more likely to be unhappy, which unhappy people become activists.
00:15:41.000 Happy content people do not engage in revolutionary activities.
00:15:45.000 So the leftists in schools, they want kids to be neurotic and you make kids neurotic by starting when they're young and showing them all these horrible things about the world, right?
00:15:57.000 Look how terrible this country is and this was real and these poor people here and look, this is bad and you show them all these things and you end up with kids that are that are like useful idiots essentially traumatized and yeah they are useful in it idiots look what Lenin said back in the Bolshevik revolution he talked about the way to control the population is through education and that's what they're doing and that's what they're doing here we've accelerated on but we started in 1964 by taking the Bible out of the schools right we give it to prisoners of course but everybody was homeschooled prior to public education coming in in the late
00:16:27.000 1800s maybe when we started public education everybody was homeschooled you know they grew up on the farm they read the Bible they could learn whatever kind of history they could learn but we changed that so drastically and the brainwashing of these kids is the biggest I think the blessing of COVID is so many parents woke up saying they've got to get their kids out of public education.
00:16:46.000 Two million more families are now homeschooling because of that.
00:16:48.000 Yeah.
00:16:50.000 Yeah, I mean, you see such a visceral reaction from the left towards parents that homeschool their kids or even religious schools.
00:16:56.000 I mean, they also have an access to Garnet religious schools.
00:16:59.000 And the reason is because the kids that come out of those schools end up emulating their parents more than they end up emulating their teachers.
00:17:05.000 And that's a huge problem, like you said, if there's any sort of Precisely, yeah.
00:17:11.000 What's interesting, go back to the 60s with those parents, I mean, and the whole hippie movement and all that and move 60s and 70s.
00:17:20.000 The whole thing back then was we were against the man.
00:17:22.000 The man was the government.
00:17:24.000 Those same people did a 180 during COVID.
00:17:26.000 Yeah, I said trust the man and don't question science.
00:17:29.000 I laughed at it all the time.
00:17:30.000 I'm going, but that's what science does.
00:17:32.000 I have, I have.
00:17:33.000 When I hear people say those kind of things that in the 60s they were saying don't trust the man and they were against the man.
00:17:39.000 Even things like they were against the Vietnam War.
00:17:43.000 I push back and I don't think they actually were against the man or against the Vietnam War.
00:17:48.000 They just were against the people in power because they were out of power.
00:17:52.000 They were against the Vietnam War because America was fighting communists, in Vietnam, the North Vietnamese.
00:17:59.000 If it were, I mean, Jane Fonda went to Vietnam and she was very happy to take pictures with the Viet Cong, the fighters, the military of the North Vietnamese.
00:18:11.000 So it wasn't, I don't think that they were actually against the man.
00:18:14.000 They were against the United States.
00:18:16.000 They were against capitalism.
00:18:17.000 They were against the status quo here in the West.
00:18:21.000 But they weren't against the established, they weren't against powerful centralized government.
00:18:27.000 They were very pro-centralized government because they were communists.
00:18:32.000 They would call themselves anarchists and probably LARP as anarchists, but they certainly weren't.
00:18:37.000 But I think we're going to move on right now.
00:18:39.000 All right.
00:18:40.000 So from the post millennial, we'll go to jump to this story.
00:18:43.000 From the post millennial, breaking, Tulsi Gabbard terminates thirty seven security clearances for individuals relating to Russia hoax, politicizing and manipulating intelligence.
00:18:55.000 Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard has revoked thirty seven security clearances of current and former officials who have abused trust by politicizing and manipulating information.
00:19:06.000 This includes people who are involved in the Russia collusion hoax.
00:19:09.000 An ODNI memo dated Monday and first obtained by the New York Post stated that the president has directed that effective immediately, the security clearances of the following thirty seven individuals are revoked.
00:19:20.000 Among those who had their clearances stripped was a former top aid to Obama administration DNI James Clapper, Vin Hugan.
00:19:29.000 I'm pronouncing that name wrong.
00:19:31.000 Win?
00:19:31.000 Vin Win.
00:19:32.000 Vin Win?
00:19:33.000 NG U Y E N is Win.
00:19:35.000 Vietnamese name, yeah.
00:19:36.000 That is something else.
00:19:38.000 Their access to classified systems, facilities, materials, and information is to be terminated forthwith.
00:19:45.000 Any contracts or employment with the U.S. government by these thirty seven individuals is hereby terminated.
00:19:51.000 Any credentials held by these individuals must be surrendered to the appropriate security officers the memo stated.
00:19:58.000 It is the determination of this office that certain individuals have engaged in some or all of the following conduct undermining those standards to include politicization or weaponization of intelligence to advance personal interest, partisan or non objective agendas inconsistent with national security priorities,
00:20:15.000 failure to safeguard classified information in accordance with applicable laws, relations and agency policies, regulations and agency policies, failure to adhere to professional analytic tradecraft standards, and other conduct detrimental to the trust and confidence required for continued access to national security information.
00:20:34.000 Do you guys, is it your sense that there's going to be more of this coming or do you think that this is something that is finally reaching a peak and we'll see less of this in the future?
00:20:44.000 Well, there's certainly far more than thirty seven names as of this morning in the Intel community that are fighting tooth and nail to prevent the Patriot takeover of the United States government or the Patriot restoration of the United States government.
00:20:58.000 There's a lot of snakes in the Intel community.
00:21:00.000 So thirty seven names, that seems like a good start, I suppose.
00:21:04.000 But I mean, like I said, I mean, you see over and over again, there's a lot of shady stuff going on.
00:21:09.000 Well, there were fifty one.
00:21:10.000 There were 51, I think, that were on the initial, the people that signed the Russia, Russia, Russia steel dossier.
00:21:18.000 They said, oh, this is actually Russia collusion and stuff.
00:21:21.000 And so, I mean, I don't know how many they've got already.
00:21:24.000 I know that they've done at least a handful already before this week, but I don't know what their total is.
00:21:30.000 It's been a trickle thus far.
00:21:32.000 This seems like the first big batch to get their security clearances yanked.
00:21:37.000 Yeah, I mean, like I said, I think the rot goes far deeper than the, not just the Intel community, but national intelligence, broadly speaking.
00:21:45.000 A lot for the people that are critical of the administration, do you think that this is a demonstration that they are actually doing the things that they said they were going to do?
00:21:56.000 Do you think that, and I don't think that this will, personally, I don't think that this is actually going to, you know, satisfy the people that are like, well, I don't, we haven't seen enough arrests and stuff.
00:22:04.000 But do you think that this indicates that the administration is doing the things that they ran on and they are looking to, to, you know, sniff out the, the bad actors?
00:22:14.000 So I could be out of my depth here, but as I understand, these people aren't actually, search shorts, search says I probably am out of my depth, depth, but I don't think these people are actually receiving any intelligence that the security clearance like is enables them to receive.
00:22:31.000 So I'm not sure how relevant it is at this point in time for former DNI James Clapper or Vin Nguyen to have his security clearance stripped, because I'm not sure it really matters at this point.
00:22:43.000 So unless I'm missing something here, it just feels like some red meat for the base, because I know he was making some promises to come after some people who were perpetuating the Russia collusion hoax, including Peter Schiff, who I believe they're going after for mortgage fraud and something else related to the Russia collusion hoax.
00:23:04.000 Well, he and Schiff actually had to open up a defense fund recently as a result of that stuff.
00:23:10.000 So even if these don't bear much fruit, the investigations in and of themselves is a punishment for a lot of these Democrats.
00:23:18.000 So these are just security clearances.
00:23:20.000 So unless I'm missing something here, I don't know if this is just posturing.
00:23:24.000 Well, the big thing is this is a huge hit for them in the private sector because in the private sector, the security clearance is worth a lot of money.
00:23:31.000 We're talking potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars lately at my table.
00:23:34.000 So this is like a huge hit.
00:23:36.000 My ex wife had a security clearance for a while when she went from working when she went from from being in the Marine Corps to working in the private sector, the amount of money that she could pull in right out of as an E5.
00:23:49.000 She or she got out of the Marine Corps as an E5 and her first job, she was making a boatload of money.
00:23:54.000 And it was just because of the security clearance.
00:23:56.000 It's not that, you know, it's not that she was, she was doing something totally different than what she did in the, uh, in the Marine Corps, but with that security clearance, it really does benefit.
00:24:04.000 Do you think, Kevin, do you think that this is something that, do you think that this is just a punishment where that losing of the security clearance is actually like losing?
00:24:14.000 you know, the ability to make money.
00:24:16.000 And do you think that this is, even if they don't have the ability to arrest them, they're going to say, well, you know what?
00:24:22.000 You behave this way and we know you did.
00:24:23.000 And so we're going to take your security clearance so that way you can't capitalize on it?
00:24:27.000 Well, I mean, as you all mentioned, I think it is a showcase, certainly, but I think there's a lot more names in the well than they're pulling out right now.
00:24:34.000 And maybe they're sending a signal with it.
00:24:37.000 Look, if you look back at the Russian inclusion, we all knew it was a joke.
00:24:39.000 We all knew it was a beginning with.
00:24:40.000 I mean, do you think Putin wants Trump in office?
00:24:42.000 Of course he wants Biden.
00:24:44.000 Of course he wants Hillary.
00:24:45.000 He doesn't want it because he knows he can push those guys around.
00:24:47.000 He can't push Trump around.
00:24:48.000 There's no way he'd want them in there.
00:24:50.000 So for them to go through this, I think they should be punished for it in some way because it was a joke.
00:24:54.000 They all knew they were lying.
00:24:55.000 Schiff is at the head of it all.
00:24:57.000 But, you know, I think it's good.
00:24:58.000 I think it's a start.
00:24:59.000 At least it shows something out there.
00:25:01.000 But I think there's bigger fish to catch out there and I hope they do it.
00:25:04.000 I mean, yeah, this is what keeps people around the deep state, so to speak.
00:25:08.000 I mean, it is very real.
00:25:09.000 This is the type of thing we're referring to as these bureaucrats that maintain the benefits even after a new administration has come in.
00:25:15.000 So, A, this cuts them off from the private sector.
00:25:17.000 So it cuts them off from a lot of wealth.
00:25:19.000 And also, if God forbid a Democrat does come into office in 2028, it's going to make appointing a lot of these people re-entry into the government a lot more difficult because now they have to, you know, re-enter the security clearance process.
00:25:30.000 But I think Nancy Pelosi will still give them stock tips.
00:25:32.000 So they're probably doing okay.
00:25:34.000 If she's around then, I mean, she's a, you know, she's she's she's she's an old lady now.
00:25:39.000 Um, but she, you know, nobbody can pick stocks like Pelosi to your point, Tate, the revolving door.
00:25:45.000 I do think that that's worth mentioning.
00:25:47.000 This is actually likely to close that revolving door on a lot of these people.
00:25:52.000 So and taking away the ability for them to come back.
00:25:55.000 It is something we talked about, you know, I think we talked about it last night, if the Democrats win, the whole bureaucracy will be reinstalled, right?
00:26:05.000 So the next time that a Democrat is elected to the office of president, they're going to appoint a lot of the same people and a lot of the same kind of people, the people that are that believe that the administrative state is necessary and that it is more important to have the administrative state as opposed to making the rules as opposed to Congress making the rules.
00:26:28.000 And I think that's one of the major problems that we have in the US right now that Congress has abdicated their responsibilities and they've handed it over to the bureaucracy because the bureaucrats are the ones that stay there.
00:26:38.000 The bureaucrats are the ones that don't go away.
00:26:40.000 If a Congressperson, you know, if they make a vote that their constituents don't like, they can lose their job.
00:26:47.000 So why make a vote when you can just hand off the, you know, the responsibility to Congress?
00:26:52.000 Well, I mean, it's true across the world that governments that are not accountable to a democratic system are much more agile.
00:27:00.000 They can make long term plans.
00:27:01.000 So it makes sense that even within democracies like the United States, even though we're a constitutional republic, but they've sort of hammered in a lot of democratic institutions that didn't exist in the Founders' eyes.
00:27:11.000 That's neither here nor there.
00:27:13.000 The problem is, yeah, like you said, it's going to create an incentive for Congress to kick the long term strategic planning off to bureaucrats because they're concerned about winning another election.
00:27:21.000 So the best they can do is just provide enough red meat to get across the finish line for the next election and let the bureaucrats figure out all the long term strategic planning.
00:27:29.000 That's how you end up with forever wars.
00:27:31.000 That's how you end up with, you know, ridiculous tax systems.
00:27:34.000 That's how you end up with ridiculous social programs because those programs are not., the bureaucrat or the congress people are not held accountable for those programs in the eyes of the voters.
00:27:44.000 They can just pond it off to someone.
00:27:46.000 And that's one of the ways that, or that's one of the ways that we have moved away from being a representative republic.
00:27:53.000 You know, the, the fact that our representatives don't actually take votes, they don't, or they don't make votes, they're not held accountable.
00:28:00.000 They've delegated that responsibility to the bureaucrats, and the bureaucrats don't answer to the voters at all.
00:28:08.000 So I don't think that it's accurate to say that we're a, a democracy.
00:28:15.000 And we're definitely not a republicblic.
00:28:16.000 Definitely not a republic.
00:28:18.000 Because we don't have representatives anymore.
00:28:20.000 So when people say that we're an oligarchy, I don't think that's accurate either, but I'm not sure exactly what type of government we could actually say that we do have now.
00:28:30.000 Well, I think the next, the midterms are important.
00:28:33.000 I think we need to get a few more seats in Congress, but I'm going to go on the limit here.
00:28:36.000 I think we're going to hold the presidential office till at least through 44.
00:28:40.000 Yeah.
00:28:41.000 44.
00:28:42.000 Wow.
00:28:43.000 There's enough Trump's out there.
00:28:44.000 I hope so.
00:28:46.000 I think Vance gets it and I think Rubio gets it right after that.
00:28:48.000 Yeah.
00:28:49.000 I mean, look, it would be really cool.
00:28:52.000 I mean, I would like to see that because, like I said,, I think that should the Democrats get back into office, should they take over the government again, you will see the bureaucracy come back with a vengeance.
00:29:03.000 I think that they will attack conservatives.
00:29:06.000 But they're doubling down now.
00:29:07.000 Yeah.
00:29:07.000 They don't seem to have learned anything.
00:29:09.000 It's just they're more angry about things.
00:29:11.000 Well, I mean, there could even be a situation, a nightmare situation I've seen proposed by a few anons on Twitter is when you clear out these career bureaucrats that have been in there since the eighties and nineties, that if, again, I don't think it's likely, but if a Democrat were to get back in and they could reinstall a bureaucracy, you're going to bring new blood in and those are going to be activists.
00:29:29.000 Those are going to be your protesters from Columbia and NYU, you're going to have an entirely new bureaucratic class and they're going to be far more fired up, have far more of a chip on their shoulder.
00:29:39.000 Do you think that that is something that the general public is aware of?
00:29:43.000 I understand there's a lot of people that are like, well, you know, I don't really like the Republicans or I don't really like Trump.
00:29:48.000 That's fairly normal, but do you think that the danger of having progress, real progressives in positions of considerable political power is something that the average voter is cognizant of?
00:30:04.000 Do you think that's something they think of?
00:30:05.000 Because it will mean really bad things because what the left really has been doing in the past 10 years or so is completely hollowing out the middle class.
00:30:16.000 They want to have elites and a class that's basically dependent on the government.
00:30:25.000 They don't want a middle class.
00:30:26.000 A middle class is an empowered class.
00:30:28.000 A middle class can make decisions on their own, make decisions about their own life.
00:30:32.000 They're generally informed.
00:30:34.000 But if you have a dependent class and an elite class, but no middle class, then you can really use the government to keep the dependent class in line and keep them doing the things that you want.
00:30:46.000 And you obviously the elite classes is going to live on, you know, live it up.
00:30:52.000 So I'm not as hopeful as Kevin about Republicans maintaining the executive until 2040.
00:30:57.000 I like his positive attitude.
00:30:59.000 But I do suspect that the thing about President Trump is that I think he's a very unique figure in how he was able to completely rally all these different parts of the Republican Party that I don't think a future Republican would be able to do in the same way that he has.
00:31:14.000 Trump was able to bring like pro life people, neocons, all these Tratcons, different religious groups, Zionists, everybody together, anti woke people, anti-communists, all together in this rare coalition that I think JD Vance might not be able to or Marco Rubio might not be able to.
00:31:31.000 And moreover, I don't think you guys are going far enough with what I believe the Democrats will do once they get back into power, which at this point I kind of think is an inevitability because of the uniqueness of how uniting a figure President Trump was.
00:31:44.000 Not just like dealing with bureaucracies, but the way the Democrats talk about our country is that they want it to be a democracy.
00:31:51.000 They see our constitutional republic.
00:31:54.000 Yeah, exactly.
00:31:54.000 They see Congress and the way that senators are appropriated to states as an issue, as a shortcoming of our country and that this stops us from being a total democracy is and that's what they really want to be.
00:32:05.000 So an inevitability that I believe we'll see with the next Democratic president is the inclusion of Puerto Rico or DC as a state.
00:32:13.000 And those will permanently give the Democrats another handful of senators and also people in the House.
00:32:20.000 Moreover, they're going to continue trying to flood our country with immigrants and then use the census to try to appropriate different more reps into areas where they don't belong.
00:32:32.000 And then also packing the Supreme Court, I suspect they will do, because they will not be able to put up with this conservative majority Supreme Court for a few more decades to come.
00:32:40.000 So I think they're going to use the pretext of what President Trump did in Texas with redistricting.
00:32:47.000 as an excuse for what they're going to do once he is out of power.
00:32:51.000 And you could tell Trump's a little bit concerned about losing the House because he felt as though it was necessary to redistrict in Texas.
00:32:57.000 He felt it was necessary that Elise Stefanik stayed in her house seat in New York and not go to the United Nations and not be an UN ambassador.
00:33:07.000 Do you think that what he's outlining in Trump, I think he's probably right about Trump.
00:33:11.000 Do you think that that's just smart politics though?
00:33:12.000 I mean, yeah, I mean, it's a razor, razor, razor, the House majority is razor tight.
00:33:16.000 So, yeah, I mean, keep Stefanik there.
00:33:18.000 Keep, was Mike Lawyer was tipped for a gig.
00:33:20.000 He didn't want to be, there are considerations of him running for governor, but the president would have.
00:33:25.000 preferred him to stay in the House.
00:33:26.000 I mean, why else would he have redistricted Texas on an off year?
00:33:30.000 It's traditionally done every ten years.
00:33:32.000 Well, because of the exodus from California.
00:33:36.000 There's a lot and because of the import of all the illegal aliens that came in during the Biden administration.
00:33:42.000 So to redistrict, the point is, I think, and I think this is partly what Trump was thinking.
00:33:47.000 Not that I think, not that I disagree with you, because I think you're right.
00:33:49.000 It is.
00:33:50.000 I think he's just finding an excuse to get more house seats, which I don't blame him for.
00:33:53.000 Because if he lost a house, then he would be impeached.
00:33:56.000 No, I think I agree with that.
00:33:57.000 But I don't think that's the only thing.
00:33:59.000 Because if you look at the way that the Democrats have done the gerrymandering.
00:34:03.000 in basically the whole country.
00:34:06.000 They have really maximized everywhere they can.
00:34:08.000 We showed a map the other day of kind of who looks to benefit the most if there's gerrymandering and the Republicans have a lot of room.
00:34:19.000 There's a lot of places where they can change the congressional maps and actually benefit a lot.
00:34:25.000 The Democrats maybe could squeak out three or four more seats, but if the Republicans are like, we're going to go, we're going to fight this and we're going to fight fire with fire and we're going to do a bunch of gerrymandering too.
00:34:35.000 Look, they're they can produce a whole lot more seats than the Democrats can because the Democrats have been.
00:34:41.000 so effective in the past.
00:34:42.000 Not saying that Republicans haven't done it because of course they have, but the Democrats have really been able to maximize it.
00:34:48.000 So I think that that's I feel like that's something that Donald Trump is aware of and it's something that he's looking to, you know, ameliorate.
00:34:56.000 He's looking to fix because there's a lot of states that are that don't have any representation for the Conservatives.
00:35:03.000 You get like 35, 40 percent of the state like Massachusetts, right?
00:35:07.000 That's the state that I grew up in.
00:35:09.000 35, 40 percent of the state went for Donald Trump.
00:35:11.000 So obviously it's clearly not a majority, clearly a majority Democrat, but there's no representation for any of the conservatives in the whole state.
00:35:20.000 Massachusetts has zero Republican Republicans in the House.
00:35:25.000 There's zero Republicans basically anywhere.
00:35:28.000 And there's multiple states like that.
00:35:30.000 So Minnesota's got the same problem.
00:35:31.000 Minnesota, I mean, everybody I know in Minnesota is conservative.
00:35:35.000 If you look, if you break into each into each county down, most of it is red.
00:35:39.000 It's just around the, you know, Minneapolis, St. Paul area, maybe down Rochester and all kinds, but it's changed so much.
00:35:44.000 My buddies are all going, I don't know what to do with this thing, but you're talking about the people moving.
00:35:48.000 Everybody left California because of what they've done to Democrats in that state.
00:35:51.000 But what a lot of these people are Democrats myself, and they leave and go into Vegas and Nevada., they go in Arizona, they go to Texas, and they still vote the same way.
00:36:00.000 That's the amazing thing to me.
00:36:01.000 So I don't think, no, look, I'm not that educated with all the stuff you guys are talking about either, but I think I keep a more of a finger out than the average person out there.
00:36:09.000 I think they just watch, you know, the daily news and maybe whatever, John Stewart, and that's where they get their news.
00:36:14.000 So they don't get, I mean, a different perspective of it.
00:36:17.000 I flip channels because I find it kind of interesting.
00:36:19.000 We go between CNN going to the, you know, British watching them.
00:36:23.000 I mean, it's interesting to get three different stories on the same story.
00:36:27.000 So, you know, it's just a matter of people wanting to get educated with it, and I don't think they want to.
00:36:32.000 They just made up their minds.
00:36:33.000 They moved into the state, and they wrecked it.
00:36:34.000 Look, they wrecked Colorado.
00:36:35.000 Look what happened to Colorado.
00:36:37.000 And it's because of.
00:36:39.000 two cities, basically Duffer and Boulder, right?
00:36:43.000 I think the easy ways, it's going to take a long time to turn us into the socialist country they want.
00:36:47.000 Why don't they just go to Venezuela now?
00:36:48.000 It's waiting for them.
00:36:49.000 Right?
00:36:50.000 It's their utopia waits.
00:36:51.000 Just go down there.
00:36:52.000 I'll use our tax dollars that way and give them a first class flight one way.
00:36:55.000 Yeah.
00:36:56.000 I mean, you're going to see the redistricting.
00:36:57.000 There's going to be a lot more options for red states if the SCOTA decides how we think they are with the race-based districting case out of Louisiana.
00:37:07.000 I mean, because there's there's a lot of seats that are up for grabs, mostly in state houses.
00:37:11.000 I mean, this whole thing started because the Louisiana Senate added two black districts in Louisiana and they got sued because it's like you can't that's just ridiculous.
00:37:20.000 This is 2025.
00:37:22.000 We're not going to do race based districts one way or the other.
00:37:25.000 So again, that will create some opportunities for red states to squeeze more red districts.
00:37:29.000 So the one really funny part about redistricting is that obviously it's tit for tat, so like we'll see California now do some redistricting and we'll go back and forth.
00:37:38.000 But you know who really hates this?
00:37:40.000 Congress members.
00:37:40.000 Members of Congress obviously get pissed off because they're getting drawn out, both Republicans and Democrats from opposite sides of states.
00:37:47.000 So the one silver lining here is it's really funny that a bunch of Congress people are about to get cut out and be very pissed as a result of that.
00:37:55.000 That's why you've seen a few House members from like Republican and Democrats all of a sudden turn into Arnold and they're like, wait, no guys, gerrymandering's actually really bad.
00:38:04.000 We need to do something about it.
00:38:05.000 I don't blame them.
00:38:05.000 I don't blame them.
00:38:07.000 Yeah, I mean, because they know their gigs on the line and they got to start looking forward.
00:38:10.000 Well, that's why we need term limits, but that's another subject we can talk about.
00:38:13.000 I'm not one hundred percent sure that term limits are going to fix anything because I think that that empowers the bureaucracy, right?
00:38:13.000 That's another thing.
00:38:18.000 I mean, I agree.
00:38:19.000 You know, it's like, I love the idea.
00:38:21.000 Like the point is to be able to make sure that people aren't entrenched and that the or that the representatives aren't entrenched and that's a great goal.
00:38:29.000 But I I'm afraid that all that it would do is shovel more power to the bureaucracy because you got, you know, you got two terms or whatever as a senator or how many the Congress is only two years.
00:38:43.000 So by the time the Congress learns exactly, you know, basically how to do their job after the end of their first term, they've got two years before they're out.
00:38:52.000 So I don't, I don't hate the idea, but I do think that a lot of people think, well, just throw the bums out.
00:38:58.000 It's great.
00:38:59.000 That sounds great.
00:39:00.000 But remember, we have a problem with the bureaucracy here.
00:39:02.000 We don't have a problem so much with Congress.
00:39:04.000 Everybody hates Congress except for their own congressperson.
00:39:07.000 Everybody likes their own congressperson.
00:39:09.000 And poll after poll after poll.
00:39:10.000 after poll show that.
00:39:11.000 So as much as it would be great if we could just be like, well, throw the bums out, what you end up with, I think, is a lot of focus or a lot of power, a lot more power in the bureaucracy.
00:39:23.000 This is the map that's interesting.
00:39:25.000 This is the map we were talking about the other day, in a redistrict, Crystalissa, who is not a pro Trump guy, he's talking about in a redistricting war, Republicans would win and they would win by a lot.
00:39:35.000 Like there's a lot of room for Republicans to grow.
00:39:38.000 So if the Democrats want to do this, if they want to actually try to be like, oh, well, we'll redistrict and we'll show you, that's a terrible strategy.
00:39:49.000 They just don't have the room to grow the way that Republicans do.
00:39:52.000 So I mean, look, I'm not for this kind of redistricting war, but if the Democrats want to, they're going to lose.
00:40:00.000 Yeah, this is the reality that they have to face.
00:40:02.000 So I honestly, I think that I think that they're just posturing because I think that the smart Democrats know this.
00:40:09.000 So I think that it's all just them trying to, you know, trying to frighten people or trying to posture conservatives.
00:40:18.000 I mean, I think this is an inevitability because we're just seeing any and I'm not saying this is inherently a good thing because often when you hear bipartisan actually means you're about to get screwed over.
00:40:27.000 But I think this has been the direction we're heading For a while, as any sense of bipartisanship would be going out the window.
00:40:35.000 And I think to a certain degree, states that did, you know, allow the opposing party a few seats.
00:40:41.000 I think Jerry Manning is going to really, really become the new standard, squeeze as many of the opposing party seats out as possible.
00:40:49.000 I think as a country, we're just going to be divided further and further.
00:40:52.000 So I don't think this is really surprising whatsoever.
00:40:55.000 This is just like a natural direction we're going in.
00:40:57.000 Pretext for escalation when a Democrat inevitably gets back in.
00:41:02.000 They'll run on this and say the Republicans are destroying our democracy by redistricting mid-decade and we have to do., add more states as a result of this.
00:41:11.000 We have to pack the court because the judges that Trump put in were illegitimate.
00:41:14.000 And that's what will, and they'll use this as the pretext.
00:41:17.000 I do think that you're right.
00:41:20.000 They will use this as the pretext, but I don't think, I think that when they get back in, when and if they get back in power, they will do all the things that we talked about, regardless of whether conservatives do this because there's no reason for them to not.
00:41:35.000 I mean, they're convinced, they're convinced to speak to your average medium democrat.
00:41:39.000 They're convinced that Trump is trying to institute the Fourth Reich in the United States.
00:41:43.000 So obviously they're going to try to make Puerto R Rico a state or whatever, because it's like they're convinced they're in a movie and that they're like the Rebel Alliance.
00:41:52.000 Ever since basically Barack Obama, they thought that okay, the Democrats are now going to control the government.
00:42:00.000 The real competition is going to be who gets to be the Democrat nominee, the Republicans are going to be just a regional party.
00:42:07.000 They're not going to ever have serious power again.
00:42:10.000 They erroneously thought that and they got really complacent and then they met Donald Trump as a candidate and everything changed.
00:42:19.000 And one of the things that happens when it comes to the Democrats is if they lose ground.
00:42:24.000 They don't just say, oh, well, we'll get him next time.
00:42:28.000 They literally freak out.
00:42:30.000 That's why everyone was so apoplectic when Donald Trump won.
00:42:34.000 That's why you saw people, the leftists in DC literally screaming when Donald Trump was inaugurated on the 20th of January 2017.
00:42:48.000 They were absolutely besides themselves because they thought that they had a permanent power base.
00:42:54.000 They thought that they would not ever lose control.
00:42:57.000 And they thought from here on out, it was whatever progressives and Democrats wanted and to lose that power.
00:43:03.000 They don't know how to deal with it because it's not just a matter of, okay, next time we'll adjust our message and we'll go to the people and we'll make a better argument.
00:43:11.000 No, no, no.
00:43:13.000 They're not interested in making arguments.
00:43:15.000 They're interested in expanding the court.
00:43:17.000 They're interested in ending the electoral college and they're interested in adding states.
00:43:20.000 That's not what you do when you lose in a democracy.
00:43:24.000 What you do is say, we need to get, make our arguments better.
00:43:27.000 We need to convince the American people why these things are right and we need to change our platform so that way the American people want to vote for us, but they're not interested in doing that.
00:43:37.000 They don't have any, they have not done any soul searching.
00:43:41.000 Maybe Gavin Newsom did because Gavin Newsom's out there doing the podcasts and stuff and he's got a good media team.
00:43:49.000 So maybe there are a handful of them, but the vast majority of the influential Democrats have done no soul searching.
00:43:56.000 They're not interested in doing that.
00:43:57.000 They're interested in doing whatever they can to put Donald Trump in jail.
00:44:02.000 which they tried.
00:44:04.000 They will do all these things should they get back into power.
00:44:07.000 They will do the expand the core, all that stuff.
00:44:09.000 That stuff is definitely coming.
00:44:11.000 And I personally think that they'll do a whole lot more.
00:44:14.000 I think that they'll look to put people like Tim Poole or people that are conservatives that have People that are conservatives that have an influential voice, they'll put those people in jail.
00:44:22.000 They'll do everything they can to make sure that you can't, you know, they'll have the DOJ and say, oh, this is, we've got this thing on you because they did it to Donald Trump and it almost worked.
00:44:33.000 If they get back into power, they'll do it again and they'll be, they'll do it with two, three times, ten times the force because they believe that they are entitled to power, they're entitled to be in charge, they're entitled to rule and they will smash their political opponents.
00:44:49.000 I don't, I don't think that there's a big, there's a, there's a compelling argument against that.
00:44:54.000 And I do think you're right completely, one hundred percent dead on, but I don't think that not doing these things will prevent them.
00:45:03.000 I think that the die has already been cast.
00:45:06.000 They, as soon as they get into power, and I mean, they've they've talked about all those things so many times, they're they're they're going to do it.
00:45:12.000 You know, it's funny you named Job Newsom because I think I think he said he'd draw out all but one Republican in California, I think he said something along those lines.
00:45:20.000 And I mean, the incentive structure is set up such that if he wants to run for president down the line, this is what he should be doing, right?
00:45:27.000 The Democrats want to see one of their own so called fighting back against the president.
00:45:33.000 And Gavin's doing just that.
00:45:34.000 Yeah.
00:45:35.000 And he's a handsome, he's a handsome guy.
00:45:37.000 So you should vote for him.
00:45:38.000 I'm a Californian.
00:45:40.000 No, I know.
00:45:40.000 I'm just it's just funny.
00:45:41.000 I mean, you know, here's the guy.
00:45:42.000 He can't put any water in the five hydrants.
00:45:44.000 And it's a guy that's the, you know, the number one salesman for UHAL.
00:45:48.000 But it's just really strange for me that this guy's able to, he'll run.
00:45:51.000 He'll be, he'll be the guy they put out there.
00:45:53.000 He'll probably be the nominee.
00:45:54.000 But how do they think they can get the message across when they put Harris and Biden in office?
00:45:58.000 Because those people can't talk their way out of anything.
00:46:01.000 I mean, it was it was amazing to me that, well, did they really get in office?
00:46:04.000 But that's another thing we're going to talk about.
00:46:07.000 Our boy Tate here has a great point that he likes to make.
00:46:10.000 And that's people vote on vibes.
00:46:12.000 Yeah.
00:46:13.000 America is a very vibes based country and evidence for this.
00:46:17.000 is Gavin Newsom's adoption of Trump's mannerisms and his tweeting style, which is hilarious because it's kind of there's two concessions happening there.
00:46:25.000 The first concession is Gavin Newsom and the left broadly conceding that America, Trump embodies America so well that his style of communication embodies like an American style of communication and that they're conceding that he's funny and that it's a really funny way of communicating.
00:46:42.000 So they're not even really mocking Trump when they're using his tweets and stuff.
00:46:45.000 They're almost just saying, yeah, this is a really funny way to talk.
00:46:48.000 And then the second concession is that they've gone too far in the anti American direction that they're seen as anti patriotic.
00:46:55.000 An exhibit A for this was in Gavin Newsom State during the LA riots when they're flying Mexican flags everywhere in Guatemala, Nicaragua, da da da da da da, as they started begging these protesters to fly American flags because they're like, guys, I know you're doing something really anti American, but at least like have the pretense, make it look patriotic, start waving American flags around, that sort of thing.
00:47:15.000 So there's two concepts.
00:47:16.000 They're all passing them around.
00:47:17.000 They're putting their white guy flags around.
00:47:18.000 They know how bad it looks.
00:47:20.000 You know, Newsom does give off the chill white guy vibes, if you will, and Democrats are trying to win that vote back over.
00:47:28.000 Because they lost it in the previous election.
00:47:28.000 Oh yeah.
00:47:30.000 So I think that's what they're going back to.
00:47:32.000 Trying to get back some of the white.
00:47:34.000 Yeah.
00:47:35.000 And he gives, you know, he's a good.
00:47:36.000 Yeah.
00:47:37.000 White face, if you will.
00:47:38.000 After Kamala got hooped like that, every the DNC is going to look like a Vineyard Vines ad next 2028.
00:47:44.000 It's going to be like it's going to be like White Boy Central.
00:47:47.000 Because that, I mean, that gives off those vibes.
00:47:49.000 Yeah.
00:47:50.000 Yeah.
00:47:50.000 At least that's what the establishment.
00:47:52.000 I mean, dude, they're like, there's these elected bros on Twitter and they're like begging Democrats to consider Andy Besheer.
00:47:58.000 Because they're just, they just want to win so bad.
00:48:00.000 And they know the way to do that is they put up just like a normal, normal, like white guy.
00:48:04.000 Because, I mean, they literally DEI Kamala.
00:48:06.000 Like Biden literally said, I'm going to nominate a black woman for vice president.
00:48:09.000 Was it not?
00:48:11.000 That was her qualifications.
00:48:12.000 During the COVID pandemic, it was him.
00:48:14.000 Yeah, he was.
00:48:14.000 It was Newsom.
00:48:15.000 That's such a white boy thing to do.
00:48:17.000 Like during the pandemic, oh, I need to take my girl out to the fancy restaurants too.
00:48:20.000 And I get caught there.
00:48:22.000 Of course I took my wife here.
00:48:23.000 What do you expect?
00:48:24.000 Like, I still have, yeah, I still have to put on for her.
00:48:27.000 There's almost there's almost a distinctively like an arrogant white guy.
00:48:31.000 There's such an arrogant white guy thing to do in a positive way.
00:48:34.000 There's like a distinctively American quality of just being like just this like greased hair, like slime, like I'll do anything to like win.
00:48:42.000 Like there's like a weird Machiavellian that's like, okay.
00:48:46.000 Granted, he's like basically a communist.
00:48:48.000 So that kind of falls short, but there is something refreshing about a guy that is so evil that he's like, I'll say whatever to what's that actor he's honest about it.
00:48:56.000 Brian Bateman.
00:48:57.000 Oh, Patrick.
00:48:58.000 Yeah, he's like Patrick Bateman of politics.
00:49:00.000 Yeah.
00:49:00.000 You need to say something.
00:49:01.000 I was going to say it's Dago coded.
00:49:02.000 It's very.
00:49:04.000 Oh, yeah.
00:49:04.000 He's going to go up there and lie to your face and get a coma.
00:49:06.000 No, if you now, if you look at the picture of his family, everybody's blonde and blue eyes.
00:49:11.000 That is, that is waspy as hell.
00:49:13.000 It's waspy as hell.
00:49:14.000 And to be honest with you, I don't know that the left, I really don't know that the left, especially in a primary, and we've probably talked about this a little bit, but I really don't think the left can bring themselves to vote for such a waspy looking guy.
00:49:27.000 Well, I mean, they did with Biden.
00:49:30.000 But they did with Biden and it took the If you really believe that he won then kosher, what?
00:49:35.000 I don't, I personally I think that's a conversation for another.
00:49:38.000 I think that it was a novel election and I think that if it were not for the fact that there were ballots mailed to everybody and there was there was voting harvesting, Biden would not win.
00:49:49.000 Honestly, I don't know that it was a win.
00:49:50.000 How to become a rabbi and to see if that election was kosher?
00:49:53.000 I don't think that I'm not well, I don't know that I think, but I am curious as to whether Democrats can win at all should they actually go to same day paper ballots.
00:50:06.000 That's what they should do and you need more male and votinging, it's ridiculous.
00:50:09.000 Yeah, I would love to see it.
00:50:10.000 Not racist to show an ID.
00:50:11.000 I mean, there's all kinds of stuff we can talk about here.
00:50:13.000 It just drives me crazy.
00:50:14.000 So okay.
00:50:15.000 Start at eight in the morning.
00:50:16.000 The polls close at eight in the evening.
00:50:16.000 Yeah.
00:50:18.000 They do in other countries.
00:50:19.000 It's what they do in Florida.
00:50:20.000 If you look at Florida, they have their S together when it comes to the way India knocks it out.
00:50:26.000 You know, I will say this, guys.
00:50:28.000 I know I feel as though male and voting lists might be getting a bad rap because of the previous election.
00:50:35.000 But I think they might actually skew to help Republicans because Republicans tend to skew older.
00:50:42.000 And if you skew older on election day, if there's something that g comes your way or there's bad weather, old people are less likely to vote.
00:50:49.000 And if you give them a week or so to kind of send in a mail and ballot in advance, I understand the security concerns of it, but I do feel as though it actually biases towards Democrats to have it only be if there's honest voting.
00:51:04.000 If there's honest, I mean, there's people are filling these things in by thousands and stuffing them in.
00:51:08.000 I mean, there's video footage.
00:51:10.000 Two Thousand Mule is a very interesting documentary that Dennis has put out there.
00:51:14.000 Well, I mean, all this is I think we're just putting band-aids on bolts holes.
00:51:19.000 And I think the Trump administration is aware of this.
00:51:20.000 And that's why they're cracking down on the immigration stuff so hard.
00:51:24.000 Because birthright citizenship is still in the books, SCODA still hasn't gotten rid of it.
00:51:28.000 And I don't know if they can.
00:51:30.000 I hope so.
00:51:31.000 So it's like we're just looking at a ticking clock because there's still tens of millions of illegal immigrants in this country that are having children.
00:51:37.000 And those children will vote Democrat because, I mean, they feel victimized by the Trump administration.
00:51:41.000 Of course, they're going to have a chip on their shoulder.
00:51:43.000 Hey, who knows, the president Trump has been winning over a lot of these Hispanic voters.
00:51:47.000 And the districts that he's redrawing in Texas are actually there's so many Hispanics on those border towns that he's redrawing.
00:51:54.000 These are, these are Tejanos that have been there for four or five.
00:51:56.000 What does that mean?
00:51:57.000 I don't know.
00:51:58.000 It's like Mexican Americans in Texas that have been there for generations because you can tell.
00:52:02.000 because Hispanics in California vote like 70, 30 Democrats, while Hispanics in Texas are now voting Republican.
00:52:09.000 But the big difference is that Hispanics aren't this monolith is because the Hispanics in Texas have been there for generations, right?
00:52:16.000 I mean, many of them can trace their lineage from before the Texas Revolution versus California, they've all arrived in the last two generations.
00:52:22.000 I do feel like there is this growing brand of Hispanics that is also increasingly anti immigrant even towards other Mexicans that want to keep American great again, that are Mexicans that don't want to be taken advantage of who came in the legal way and see those other people taking advantage and feel like they got the short end of the stick.
00:52:40.000 That's the short end of the stick.
00:52:41.000 So I know many, I agree with you.
00:52:42.000 I know many when I lived in LA, I know many of those guys.
00:52:45.000 I met quite a few of them saying the exact same thing you just said now.
00:52:48.000 Well, it was really funny because the Republicans from Reagan on, they made this bet that they could import Hispanic labor, but somehow they would convince them to vote Republican through like emphasizing free market values or like maybe saying, Oh, they're Catholic.
00:53:03.000 They're naturally conservative.
00:53:04.000 And it didn't really work.
00:53:06.000 And then Trump came along and didn't pander at all.
00:53:08.000 He's just like, Hey, we're going to make America great.
00:53:10.000 If you want to make America great with me, you can.
00:53:12.000 I'm not even going to translate that to Spanish.
00:53:13.000 Just figure it out.
00:53:14.000 And they're like, Oh great.
00:53:15.000 You're treating me like a human being.
00:53:16.000 Yeah, I'll vote for you.
00:53:17.000 And it's like, you don't need to panderander to these people.
00:53:19.000 You just need to present a compelling future for the United States and they'll be along with that.
00:53:22.000 You don't need to treat them like idiots.
00:53:24.000 What if the Democrats, if you want to be treated like an idiot because of your race, you can vote for the Democrats.
00:53:28.000 What a thought.
00:53:29.000 We're going to jump to this story now.
00:53:29.000 Yeah.
00:53:31.000 From the Hill Hill Hill Hillary Clinton, the Supreme Court will do to gay marriage what they did to abortion.
00:53:37.000 That that might actually happen.
00:53:38.000 Happy check true Hillary Clinton.
00:53:40.000 Damn.
00:53:41.000 2016 Democrat presidential nominee and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says she believes the Supreme Court is poised to overturn its landmark ruling in Obergefell v.
00:53:50.000 Hodge, which effectively legalized same-sex marriage nationwide and that unmarried same-sex couples ought to consider tying the knot.
00:53:58.000 American voters and to some extent the American media don't understand how many years the Republicans have been working in order to get us to this point.
00:54:06.000 Clinton told Fox News host Jessica Tarlov on Friday in a wide-ranging interview on Raging Moderates.
00:54:12.000 The podcast Tarlov co-host was Scott Galloway.
00:54:16.000 Neither of those people are moderates.
00:54:19.000 It took fifty years to overturn Roe v.
00:54:21.000 Wade, Clinton said.
00:54:22.000 The Supreme Court will hear a case about gay marriage.
00:54:24.000 My prediction is they will do to gay marriage what they did to abortion.
00:54:27.000 They will send it back to the states.
00:54:29.000 Look, it did take fifty years to overturn Roe v.
00:54:32.000 Roe v.
00:54:32.000 Wade.
00:54:33.000 Wade was a terribly decided decision.
00:54:38.000 Even Ruth Bader Ginsburg said that it was a bad decision and the Republicans still did it the right way.
00:54:46.000 And this goes to our point earlier about the way that Democrats will exercise power versus the Republicans.
00:54:53.000 Republicans and the Libertarians are generally pretty guilty of this as well.
00:54:58.000 They will do the thing that they're supposed to do and go through the process in order to get the result that they want.
00:55:07.000 Fifty years they worked and worked and worked and worked and finally got it back in front of the SCOTUS when the SCOTUS had the makeup in a way that they would find in favor of putting abortion in the states' hands.
00:55:22.000 They didn't even get them to say abortion must be illegal nationwide.
00:55:27.000 All they did was say, we want it, you put it back in the states' hands.
00:55:31.000 That took them forever because the Republicans will do that.
00:55:36.000 The Democrats have no compunction with just grabbing power in any means necessary.
00:55:43.000 And I personally think the Republicans should behave in a similar fashion now.
00:55:48.000 And I understand that you, you have apprehensions or this is, you know, there's apprehensions that you have and they're legitimate.
00:55:53.000 It's not exactly apprehensions.
00:55:55.000 It's just understanding like cause and effect.
00:55:57.000 Like I don't want to be blind to the potential backlash that that's going to come here.
00:56:01.000 Go on.
00:56:02.000 I think that this is the example that I'm or the reason I bring this example up is because it doesn't actually it's not actually a cause and effect.
00:56:11.000 The cause that you're saying isn't what's going to cause Democrat isn't what's going to make Democrats do this.
00:56:16.000 The Democrats are going to do this because they don't care about process.
00:56:21.000 They don't care about anything other than amassing power and keeping it.
00:56:25.000 It's it's a fascinating conversation to have because I feel like Democrats would argue the same thing of Republicans.
00:56:31.000 A larger point I think., is that Democrats argue that men can become women.
00:56:35.000 I agree with you.
00:56:37.000 It's a very dumb argument that many of them make and I obviously think they're very wrong.
00:56:41.000 One thing I wanted to point out here, though, is like a reason that this is even a possibility is because there's a conservative majority on the Supreme Court right now.
00:56:49.000 Why is there a majority on the Supreme Court right now?
00:56:51.000 I know a lot of us might not talk about it because Mitch McConnell actually very skillfully allowed this majority to happen.
00:56:57.000 And one of the big points that Democrats actually harp on about and complain about the Supreme Court being illegitimate on is that they held the seat open that originally was going to go to Merrick Garland during the end of the Obama administration.
00:57:10.000 Instead, he didn't hold a vote on that seat and eventually Trump won the election and then he filled the seat with Neil Gorsuch, who was able to be confirmed through the Mitch McConnell led Senate.
00:57:21.000 So all this is really coming to fruition because of that.
00:57:24.000 But Democrats, again, would argue that they need to pack the Supreme Court because Mitch McConnell did that and Neil Gorsuch's appointment was illegitimate because they held that spot open during the end of the Obama term.
00:57:35.000 So all of that is to say that depending on which party you're from, you could point to different things and try to argue that things are legitimate or illegitimate.
00:57:44.000 I also want to say I think it's a fascinating political strategy by the Trump administration too.
00:57:48.000 You're you're overturning these laws but you're not setting them and you're letting the states decide instead.
00:57:53.000 So they overturned Roe v Wade but they didn't decide to make abortion illegal across the country.
00:57:58.000 And they're going to follow that same blueprint here.
00:58:01.000 So it seems with gay marriage.
00:58:03.000 And again, I think attitudes are changing surrounding gay marriage, but more than anything, this is a pushback against the excesses of the LGBTQ community.
00:58:12.000 This is a pushback in regards to drag queen story hours, to the trans issues.
00:58:17.000 People are just saying this has gone way too far and this is ultimately the result, even though I don't think that many people have a problem with gay marriage.
00:58:26.000 I think gay marriage should or marriage should be a religious institution, But we're far from that.
00:58:32.000 I know I just said a lot.
00:58:33.000 Does any of you have any thoughts?
00:58:34.000 I mean, I think Obergefell, if you're frustrated with the transgender ideology, if you're frustrated with the drag queen story hour, you can't just ratchet back the LGBT movement to an earlier stage and not expect the same result, because with Obergefell, what happened is in the eyes of the state, gender became interchangeable.
00:58:53.000 Because before that, marriage was a man and a woman.
00:58:56.000 You passed, Obergefell, gay marriage becomes the standard, becomes the view in the government's eyes now that you can swap a man out for a woman and it's still a marriage.
00:59:03.000 So the transgender movement started when this happened because that's when in the eyes of the state, gender became interchangeable and it was, you know, men, women, who cares, just hot.
00:59:12.000 I don't know if there's a gay consensus on the trans issue.
00:59:15.000 I'm sure there are many older gays who believe, is that the right way to call them?
00:59:19.000 Sure.
00:59:20.000 Queer, older gays.
00:59:21.000 Queer is an identity.
00:59:23.000 They're just gays.
00:59:24.000 Older gay men who, you know, came up when they were younger and fought for their right to get married and now see the excesses of the left and now they see people become more frustrated with their community, might hold resentment towards some of these ultra progressives or ultra gays who go further in the LGBTQIA.
00:59:43.000 Well, I mean, I mean, it's great that they have their criticisms., but if they see that as an excess, it's like, well, you only have yourself to blame.
00:59:51.000 Like, you can't let a little bit in and not expect to get the whole, the whole package.
00:59:55.000 So it's like, you know, if you didn't gatekeep hard enough.
00:59:59.000 Well, it's not even you can't gatekeep an ideology.
01:00:01.000 It's either you, you either have it or you don't.
01:00:03.000 Like I said, you can't just ratchet it back to an earlier stage and not expect a similar result.
01:00:06.000 It's like, and then in this case, it only took them ten years to get where we're at now.
01:00:10.000 I mean, they just put their foot on the gas.
01:00:11.000 So, I mean, rightfully Americans, even if they haven't thought about the philosophical implications of gender becoming interchangeable in the eyes of the state, still the average American has the right now to be skeptical about anything the LGBT community wants to do because you're saying, well, you guys blame us.
01:00:24.000 Because you're saying, well, you guys blew it.
01:00:25.000 You did 15 years and now there's drag queen story hours and transgender nonsense.
01:00:29.000 Kevin, do you have any trans characters in any of your upcoming movies?
01:00:33.000 None that I know of.
01:00:34.000 If they are, they're pretty damn good at what they're looking at.
01:00:36.000 I mean, what I'm saying.
01:00:37.000 The characters are based around that.
01:00:40.000 I mean, I tend, I have no problem with it.
01:00:40.000 No, not really.
01:00:43.000 Look, almost every movie I've ever been on, every television show I've ever worked on, there's been someone gay or lesbian on the set.
01:00:48.000 I don't care.
01:00:49.000 I personally don't care what most people do with their lives in terms of their sexual lives or whatever like that.
01:00:54.000 I think what you mentioned with the religious world, I mean, the bearage comes from the Bible between a man and a woman.
01:00:59.000 That's what it is.
01:01:00.000 So to me, if you want to appease the religious crowd just get married but call it something else.
01:01:05.000 Call it a union.
01:01:06.000 I don't care.
01:01:07.000 Get the same rights, get the same tax benefits.
01:01:09.000 I have no problem with that.
01:01:10.000 That's what I mean.
01:01:11.000 Just by being a conservative myself and being a Christian, am I perfect in any of those things?
01:01:16.000 But I get attacked all the time on the internet saying I'm this and that.
01:01:16.000 Not at all.
01:01:19.000 Now they go, where's your proof?
01:01:21.000 Find one gay person.
01:01:22.000 I've been in the business for 45 years.
01:01:23.000 I've worked with gay people all night for 5 decades.
01:01:26.000 Find one that says he was so mean to me on the set.
01:01:28.000 He was rude.
01:01:29.000 He was an a hole.
01:01:30.000 I mean, all this, you won't find one.
01:01:32.000 But they love their labels.
01:01:33.000 They love their attack.
01:01:34.000 They love to just go after and they have nothing, no proof behind it whatsoever.
01:01:38.000 I could care less.
01:01:39.000 But once again, just, you know, it's just constant.
01:01:42.000 The power the Elfwood crowd has to just sit there and force all this stuff down saying, this is normal now.
01:01:47.000 This is normal now.
01:01:48.000 You know, do what you want to do.
01:01:50.000 But don't sit there and try to change the definition of things.
01:01:53.000 I mean, we used to call somebody that is, you know, that has changed their sex.
01:01:58.000 We used to say, well, that's mental illness.
01:02:00.000 Now we're supposed to just accept that as normal.
01:02:02.000 It isn't normal.
01:02:03.000 Do you believe that the overturning of Obergefell would be an excessive backlash from conservatives?
01:02:11.000 don't i don't know i mean to me it's to me you're looking at this i look at chuck schumer i got to say this for a second second because I got a big kick out of saying we got to make these 20 million.
01:02:22.000 I don't know how many millions came across.
01:02:23.000 I heard 10 million, 15 million, 20 million came across during Biden's term.
01:02:26.000 So you hear all of a sudden, we have to make them all legal right now because we got to replenish our workforce.
01:02:32.000 And I said, well, you got rid of the workforce with Roe v.
01:02:34.000 Wade.
01:02:35.000 You killed 65 million human lives.
01:02:37.000 I do a lot of pro-life speaking.
01:02:39.000 It's a human life.
01:02:39.000 There's a heartbeat of 22 days.
01:02:41.000 So that's 65 million.
01:02:42.000 How many more millions would have been born out of those people born in the 70s, 80s, and 90s?
01:02:47.000 We've probably got rid of 100 million people in this country.
01:02:50.000 25% of Gen Z, not to get sidetracked, 25% of Gen Z was aborted.
01:02:54.000 I mean, that's your labor crisis right there.
01:02:56.000 It's it's it's unbelievable what they've done.
01:02:58.000 And these would have been educated people coming into the country, not people that were coming from poor countries with worse education than we got coming in here.
01:03:05.000 They're not going to be the ones filling up the workforce in a positive way with engineers and everything like that.
01:03:12.000 And it's we're changing the face of this country so quickly right now.
01:03:16.000 Well, there's just clearly, like you said, there's a it's a border it feels antihuman what's happening, this restructuring of our country at every level from our culture to our institutions to everything.
01:03:28.000 And like, I mean, that's kind of the same thing what we're talking about here is like Obergefeld was a is a shot fired by these antihuman people because they want to get the government to redefine what gender is.
01:03:40.000 That was the idea is they want men and women to be interchangeable.
01:03:43.000 It means nothing, because that's the point of liberalism.
01:03:45.000 Liberalism is blank slate theory, and what is more restrictive than having a gender, because that defines a lot of your characteristics.
01:03:51.000 So this is actually something that I've actually had a disagreement with Mary on.
01:03:55.000 I don't think that gender is even a real thing, right?
01:03:59.000 Like your biological sex is so Yeah.
01:04:04.000 But it matters.
01:04:05.000 It matters, because when you ask someone, what is gender?
01:04:08.000 It's essentially the way that they describe it, it's your sexual spirit, right?
01:04:14.000 And so, and the reason that I like, I said., Mary and I have a disagreement because she believes that human beings have a spirit, have a soul, and that the soul is gendered.
01:04:24.000 I as an agnostic, don't really have that same sense.
01:04:28.000 And I think that your sex, your biological sex, is the only thing that matters.
01:04:32.000 Your gender doesn't matter.
01:04:34.000 And as long as your, if your biological sex is the deciding factor, then all this gender nonsense can be ignored.
01:04:42.000 And oh, well, it's fine because their gender is interchangeable or gender can be changed.
01:04:49.000 That is all just an innovation in the past, whatever, fifty, sixty years.
01:04:54.000 And if we were, if we had a government that said, no, your sex is what's important and we don't even address gender, then you can actually get around all the stuff that you're talking about because you have a great point.
01:05:05.000 You're, you're totally right.
01:05:06.000 The way that the LGBTQIA groups have made people understand or convinced people to understand this innovation called gender is that it is something that isn't actually tied to your body.
01:05:22.000 It's not tied to your biology.
01:05:24.000 And that's wrong.
01:05:25.000 There are anomalies.
01:05:26.000 There are people that are less masculine and more masculine that are men and there are women that are more mas masculine and less masculine.
01:05:34.000 But by and large, men are far more masculine than women.
01:05:40.000 Women have certain traits that generally apply to their, to women, and men have certain traits that generally apply to men.
01:05:49.000 And it's it's it's it's it's it's enough where you can safely say, this is how men are.
01:05:56.000 This is how women are.
01:05:57.000 And of course there are some anomalies.
01:05:59.000 But without that, that the idea of gender, without the innovation of gender, you actually circumvent balance.
01:06:07.000 Well, I mean, I think gender is one to one with sex.
01:06:10.000 I mean, broadly speaking, it directly correlates.
01:06:13.000 But I mean, obviously, if you're agnostic, then I think at that point you should just view them and they're like synonyms effectively.
01:06:19.000 Or just like you said, ignore gender entirely.
01:06:21.000 But when you talk, I could have said sex for my entire rant and my point would have been the same.
01:06:26.000 But when you talk to the, when you talk to the crits, right, the gender crits, the critical gender theorists, you take away the whole foundation of all of their theory when you don't acknowledge gender.
01:06:38.000 Yeah, I mean, like, and I understand what you're saying, but they don't look at it the same way you do.
01:06:43.000 They look at gender as different.
01:06:44.000 They think gender, that you think gender changes.
01:06:47.000 That's why you get people that say, well, you know, right now my gender feels this way, but in two hours after I have a meal, my gender might be different.
01:06:54.000 You know, that's interesting.
01:06:58.000 That comes from the idea that gender is something that is more akin to a spirit than something that is tied to your biology, and we should abandon that idea.
01:07:08.000 I mean, that's totally fair.
01:07:10.000 I mean, for my entire rant I had earlier, I could have just said sex instead, and it would have been the exact same point I'm trying to make.
01:07:15.000 All I'm trying to say is, if you have frustration with the drag queens, with the transgender, this has to go, a burger fell has to go, and that you need the state to reorient around men and women as separate entities and respect those differences instead of just trying to turn us into blank slates.
01:07:30.000 Kevin, I wanted to ask, there's a narrative that Hollywood advances a lot of the so called LGBTQIA agenda.
01:07:38.000 As someone who's in the space, you know, can you confirm or deny how true that is or are these just groups of people working together?
01:07:44.000 Have you heard that stuff?
01:07:45.000 What do you think of it?
01:07:47.000 this really just, this is new to me over the last, like, ten years maybe or something like that.
01:07:51.000 Hollywood booted me out.
01:07:52.000 I'm the first cancel culture victim before it became a term.
01:07:55.000 Manager and agent, because of the things you're posting on the internet about COVID and things I was posting the truth, of course, I got blacklisted from Hollywood.
01:08:03.000 That's why my wife and I formed Sorbo Studios.
01:08:05.000 We're doing our own films, independent films.
01:08:07.000 And I do films at Hollywood.wood used to do.
01:08:09.000 They're not necessarily faith-based.
01:08:10.000 I think every movie's a faith-based.
01:08:12.000 If you're an atheist, that's a pretty strong faith.
01:08:14.000 To believe in absolutely nothing is a really strong faith.
01:08:17.000 So to me, it's like, I want to do movies that have hope and love and redemption.
01:08:20.000 It doesn't have to be, you better believe in God.
01:08:22.000 I just want to do nice movies that Hollywood used to do instead of the woke insanity they're doing.
01:08:27.000 I mean, I think over a billion dollars is what Disney's looking at this year as a loss.
01:08:32.000 So to me, I never.
01:08:35.000 I was well aware of, I mean, it's the conservatives that are in the closet now.
01:08:39.000 The gays are fully out of the closet in Hollywood.
01:08:41.000 It feels like the conservatives are out of the closet too now, doesn't it?
01:08:44.000 Well, not in Hollywood, you'd be surprised.
01:08:47.000 I mean, every movie I've been doing the last six, seven years, I'll get another actor, I'll get a hair person, a director, a light guy come up to me quietly like we're doing a drug deal and say, hey, thanks for being a voice for us.
01:08:59.000 And I go, be a voice for yourself.
01:09:00.000 Well, I'll get blacklisted like you.
01:09:02.000 And it has hurt people's careers.
01:09:04.000 I know a number of big named actors that are conservative.
01:09:08.000 I'm not going to name them because they said, well, I don't want it happened to me what happened to you.
01:09:12.000 But I said, look, I'm still making movies.
01:09:14.000 Hollywood doesn't call me anymore.
01:09:15.000 I've always found it childish.
01:09:17.000 Who cares?
01:09:18.000 I don't get angry if someone's gay.
01:09:19.000 I don't get angry if someone's illiberal.
01:09:21.000 I don't.
01:09:22.000 I don't be what you want to be.
01:09:24.000 But they have the power in Hollywood, so they do no longer let me read for any movies or any TV shows.
01:09:30.000 I got to find my own independent projects.
01:09:32.000 And to me, they're like seventh grade mean girls.
01:09:34.000 It's so immature and so childish that they don't work with me just because I happen to be a conservative.
01:09:40.000 It's weird to me.
01:09:41.000 But the parties have shifted.
01:09:42.000 I tell my liberal friends, look at JFK's inauguration speech in 1960 and find one Democrat who talks that way today.
01:09:48.000 You won't find it.
01:09:50.000 Even as recently as Bill Clinton, I feel like you'd be a conservative now.
01:09:53.000 Look, the second time I voted for Clinton the second time.
01:09:56.000 I didn't the first time.
01:09:58.000 I mean, he won, it was the lowest, anybody's ever won a percentage, right?
01:10:02.000 38 percent or something.
01:10:03.000 Ross was involved.
01:10:03.000 Because Ross was there.
01:10:04.000 Yeah.
01:10:05.000 But I thought, you know what?
01:10:06.000 Guy did a good job.
01:10:07.000 And I voted for him.
01:10:08.000 I wouldn't vote for Hillary.
01:10:09.000 So that was, I was like, Jesus on the devil's lap.
01:10:13.000 Well, I mean, it was even the 2008 Democrat nomination where they were accusing each other of being pro-gay marriage, which was, which is hilarious.
01:10:13.000 He's laughing.
01:10:20.000 I mean, that just shows you how quickly this evolved specifically, but how quickly Democrats radicalized within 15, 20 years.
01:10:28.000 I mean, Republicans, there's all these, they showed these like graphs where it's like, look at the polarization.
01:10:34.000 The Democrats went this way and the Republicans went this way.
01:10:36.000 And I'm like, the Republicans are just tracking back to how they were in the 90s.
01:10:39.000 I mean, the average Republican, if you see how an average Republican would have shifted to the left.
01:10:45.000 Exactly.
01:10:46.000 The average Republican in 1992, I mean, Pat Buchanan was a formidable candidate in presidential elections and he was fantastic and he outflanked every Republican to the right right right now.
01:10:56.000 And this is supposedly the most radical Republican party in history.
01:10:58.000 It's like, well, 1992, I mean, look at, yeah, like, is it Pat Buchanan who's a genius, by the way?
01:11:03.000 Yeah, the idea that the Republican Party right now is the most radical ever is absolutely ridiculous.
01:11:07.000 If you look at the way that Republicans or the way that anyone talked prior to World War II, that just, I mean, essentially it would make today's.
01:11:18.000 Democrats and a lot of today's Republicans just, you know, shiver in fear and say, You can't say that.
01:11:24.000 You can't say that.
01:11:24.000 You can't say that.
01:11:25.000 Things like talking about race the way they used to talk about race.
01:11:28.000 Like, absolutely not.
01:11:30.000 But we're going to jump to this story right now.
01:11:32.000 From the post millennial, Eric Adams slammed Zoharon Mamdani over socialists push for legalized prostitution.
01:11:40.000 Mayor Eric Adams has slammed socialist candidate for New York mayor Zoharon Mamdani as the candidate has pushed to decriminalize prostitution.
01:11:48.000 There is a difference between decriminalize and legalize, and I'm not sure which one they're talking about because decriminalize is just not effectively legalize., you can get a business license.
01:11:57.000 Well, yeah, but also that it starts to involve the courts.
01:12:01.000 I mean, I'm sorry, involve the government.
01:12:01.000 Right.
01:12:03.000 You have to, it's not they, it wouldn't be, you can get, like, they would require a license.
01:12:07.000 Right.
01:12:07.000 The government.
01:12:08.000 Regulate it, it's on the books.
01:12:09.000 Decriminalize just means you won't go to jail.
01:12:11.000 Making it legalized allows it to be legally commercial and have the full power of legal markets and legal capitalism behind it, as opposed to decriminalization where it will still not be regulated, have their markets regulated.
01:12:25.000 I imagine that Zoran would not want it legalized, that he would want it decriminalized, because I imagine that he is not interested in making it something that capitalism can exploit for what, however, he would presume to be.
01:12:40.000 Anyways, I can't be more clear.
01:12:42.000 I'm a man of God.
01:12:43.000 Just as Mamdani says he's a Muslim, I don't know where in his Quran it states that it's okay for a woman to be on the street selling their body, Adam told reporters.
01:12:52.000 I don't know what Quran he's reading, it's not my Bible, he added.
01:12:56.000 As a man who said he is of faith, I don't quite understand what religion supports prostitution.
01:13:01.000 Mamdani, who claims to be a believing Muslim, has taken up the issue on multiple occasions since he ran for New York City Assembly in twenty twenty, according to the New York Post.
01:13:11.000 Prostitution is also very much against the tenants of Islam.
01:13:15.000 I think he's lost faith in the faithful.
01:13:16.000 Faith in the fact that sex trafficking is very much a part of prostitution, Adams added in his comments.
01:13:22.000 We are trying to bring down crime and he's talking about legalizing sex work.
01:13:27.000 You're not doing any service to a woman who's on the street who is forced to sell her body for whatever reason, he added, no one should be on our streets selling their bodies, no one.
01:13:37.000 Momdani, aside from other left wing policy, he has proposed during his campaign such as freezing rents, government run grocery stores, and raising the minimum wage to thirty dollars an hour, has co sponsored legislation in the New York Assembly that would legalize prostitution across the city.
01:13:52.000 If that is his belief, it is a danger for us our city, Adam said in his comments.
01:13:56.000 Our city needs to be a safe city.
01:13:58.000 It should not be a city where women are standing on corners or boys are standing on corners or young men are standing on corners selling their bodies.
01:14:04.000 Look, man, the idea that Zoran Momdani would not turn New York City of today into New York City of 1979 through 1985, I think that idea has sailed.
01:14:20.000 And I think that if you institute Zoran's policies or the policies that he's talked about, I think that's inevitable.
01:14:27.000 I mean, doesn't that seem to be the case?
01:14:30.000 Yeah.
01:14:30.000 I mean, you go back to those decades at that time it was pretty scary New York City was not a good place we walk around I love the fact that some people say they miss that time that they miss the seediness of the city that way but it was so real back then it was so real it was so real the danger was excellent but but look where they're at right now I mean look what's happening in that city right now and look at the number of people have left I mean I escaped California seven years ago I live in this free state of Florida and the number of when COVID hit the number of people that came down from Connecticut Rhode
01:15:01.000 Island New York and Jersey just flooded New flooded it and really when I first got there this is interesting about Florida I know it's seguing a little bit here but Florida was used to be a swing state state, right?
01:15:11.000 It ain't anymore.
01:15:12.000 When I got there, I think there were 300,000 more Democrats registered seven years ago.
01:15:16.000 Now it's like 800,000 more Republicans registered.
01:15:19.000 It's no longer a swing state.
01:15:20.000 Yeah.
01:15:21.000 What I believe was extremely effective in this Eric Adams attack is that I don't know if he did it purposely or not, but he took note out of Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals.
01:15:32.000 This is a far leftist who made a political strategy book, but one of the specific things he's using here is make them live by their own rules, exposing the hypocrisy and inconsistencies in the opponent's declared principles and actions and prostitution.
01:15:49.000 is not consistent with the beliefs in Islam.
01:15:53.000 I don't think this is the only inconsistency that exists within his policy proposals, but I think that's what will make this such an effective, potent attack.
01:16:01.000 And I think Mayor Adam should continue attacking Mom Dani in this fashion.
01:16:06.000 However, ultimately, I don't think this would lead him to be successful in the race.
01:16:09.000 He's polling at half of what Andrew Cuomo's polling at.
01:16:12.000 He's polling at nearly what the Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa, who should also probably drop out, and we'll see if President Trump decides to get involved one way or another in the race to ultimately, if these guys ultimately want to stop Mom Dani, they will need to put their egos aside.
01:16:25.000 I know I'm asking a lot of a politician there to put their egos aside because I ultimately doubt either will because again, all these guys have extremely huge egos.
01:16:34.000 One other tidbit I wanted to say here is that if we do get to the point where prostitution is legalized, it would be such an unfortunate state of the market for the women in our country.
01:16:45.000 If we make the most lucrative thing in our country that a woman could do be prostitution if a woman has no skills and a young 18 19 20 23 whatever and the most lucrative thing that a young woman like this can do is go into prostitution.
01:17:01.000 I don't want to make the incentive structure such that for young women to highly incentivize them to do so.
01:17:06.000 And by legalizing prostitution, that's what we.
01:17:09.000 would effectively be doing in our country.
01:17:10.000 I don't know that there's a huge moral hazard.
01:17:13.000 I don't know that it would be actually the most lucrative thing that they can do.
01:17:16.000 I mean, like a young unskilled woman, fans is like instant millionaire.
01:17:20.000 No, it's not the average.
01:17:21.000 A lot of these.
01:17:22.000 No, no, no, no, no.
01:17:23.000 The average only fans girl.
01:17:23.000 No, hold on.
01:17:25.000 Oh, makes like $150.
01:17:28.000 There are exceptions, but they they average like $150.
01:17:31.000 Yeah.
01:17:32.000 And then when you think, if you're talking about streetwalkers, they're not making a lot of money.
01:17:39.000 They're not.
01:17:40.000 I think, I think, I think, like New Zealand, the Netherlands, they actually do make quite a bit of money.
01:17:44.000 That's not streetwalkers.
01:17:45.000 Those are, that's what happens when prost prostitution becomes regulated.
01:17:48.000 No, so bordels, massage parlors, escorts, it's a much more lucrative job for most unskilled women compared to what they would do otherwise.
01:17:59.000 And if that's what the fact of the matter is, then we're setting up young women to be taken advantage of, and if we want to prevent a whole generation of young women getting involved in this work for the money, I could be wrong, but I don't think that it's actually that lucrative for the average woman.
01:18:15.000 Not the average woman.
01:18:16.000 Compared to a low, like a low and unskilled woman versus like a fry cook or something?
01:18:20.000 Probably, yeah.
01:18:21.000 I mean, you know, like if you're a cashier or you're, you know, like.
01:18:24.000 there's a lot of unskilled labor.
01:18:26.000 If you're a cashier and you're attractive, but like the idea that you can be a cashier, like an unattractive woman, is not going to be pulling in a lot of money.
01:18:36.000 Like I, I, and again, I don't I don't know.
01:18:39.000 I don't know if I want to get into the market in the numbers.
01:18:42.000 I suspect women in massage parlors can make a lot more money being prostitutes than giving massages.
01:18:48.000 Like I know that they're you're reading between the lines.
01:18:51.000 I do.
01:18:53.000 New York City has already to some degree decriminalized prostitution because the rub and tugs, the women are not prosecuted.
01:19:00.000 They only prosecute the pimps.
01:19:02.000 And the owners, and I forget most of those women are trafficked, aren't they?
01:19:05.000 They tend to be often, yeah, they're often foreign, they're often trafficked, but they don't prosecute the women anymore.
01:19:12.000 You know, whatever.
01:19:12.000 I don't, I don't, I've never looked into if that actually helps crack down or if that helps improve the standards.
01:19:17.000 I doubt it.
01:19:18.000 I doubt that actually improves anyone's lives.
01:19:19.000 You should probably just decriminalize the, or sorry, you should probably criminalize every aspect of prostitution.
01:19:25.000 They're everywhere in Queens, especially.
01:19:27.000 I mean, it gets bad.
01:19:28.000 I'm not, you know, an expert on the locations, but it's, it's, there's kind of running jokes.
01:19:33.000 Like, I think it's what Northern Avenue in Queens is like, just this, you know, open air, like prostitution.
01:19:38.000 I mean, it looks like Amsterdam, like it's crazyzy.
01:19:41.000 It's very prevalent.
01:19:43.000 And no, it's just like a lot of saying is like just in general having prostitution being lucrative to any degree is just such a tragic reflection on your society.
01:19:52.000 And I think the last thing you want to do is like enfranchise that in any way, any meaningful way.
01:19:57.000 I just don't imagine that, you know, the making prostitution legal makes it lucrative.
01:20:05.000 I feel like it is the kind of thing that I feel like it's the kind of thing that, like, you go into only if you have to because there's not, it's, there's not a lot of money.
01:20:15.000 It's dangerous.
01:20:16.000 Even if there's, even if they decriminalize it and they.
01:20:19.000 can actually go to the police.
01:20:20.000 Maybe I'm tripping, but I think strippers make a ton of money.
01:20:23.000 And I mean, strippers are different than prostitutes.
01:20:27.000 They're, you know, I think they're very vaguely the same, at least in a religious worldview.
01:20:32.000 No, I think they put out too.
01:20:33.000 I don't know.
01:20:34.000 I don't visit strip clubs frequently.
01:20:36.000 I think they would.
01:20:39.000 I don't know.
01:20:40.000 Probably, right?
01:20:41.000 I've been to a lot of strip clubs and they, I'm 50 years old, bro.
01:20:44.000 And you're a rock.
01:20:45.000 And I was, I've been in Iraq for 25 years.
01:20:48.000 I mean, that is not something that happens regularly.
01:20:51.000 I mean, I think it's just...
01:20:56.000 Like, if you can.
01:20:57.000 Uber a prostitute.
01:20:58.000 Like the way technology will evolve with this industry if it becomes legalized will be disgusting and horrible.
01:21:05.000 And worse than I can imagine.
01:21:07.000 Like they've done this thing where they just don't let you as a society, they don't let you criminalize behaviors that are corrosive to the human spirit.
01:21:16.000 Like they call it a victimless crime.
01:21:18.000 It's like, I don't need a victim involved to just want to disincentivize something that's bad for people.
01:21:23.000 Like, I'm so tired of this live and let live liberal attitude.
01:21:26.000 It's like, no, if something is bad for a human being, you can justify banning it.
01:21:30.000 Your society should be a reflection of good characteristics.
01:21:33.000 And America was that for a long time.
01:21:35.000 You're telling me there are things that you can do in the bedroom that affect society that are bad.
01:21:39.000 Yes, absolutely.
01:21:41.000 Yes, 100%.
01:21:42.000 Yes, there's like doggy style.
01:21:43.000 Every.
01:21:44.000 It's bad for it.
01:21:45.000 I mean, I'm a bit of a purist.
01:21:46.000 It's humanizing.
01:21:47.000 Every, yeah, every personal decision.
01:21:49.000 Society is just a culmination of personal decisions.
01:21:51.000 That's all it is.
01:21:53.000 That's all it is.
01:21:55.000 Yeah, I mean, so look, I'm, I'm, I'm completely, you know, I don't think that decriminalizing or legalizing prostitution in New York City or anywhere else is going to be, is going to produce positive results.
01:22:09.000 It is typical of, stop it.
01:22:12.000 It is typical of the, of the left to say, you know, to, desire these kind of things, you know.
01:22:18.000 I love the Islam standard he's holding him to.
01:22:21.000 He's like, come on, is that kosher in the Quran?
01:22:23.000 I mean, is that is that halal?
01:22:24.000 It's it's not halal.
01:22:25.000 It's not halal.
01:22:28.000 You're advocating actually it's not haram shit.
01:22:30.000 It's not kosher.
01:22:30.000 It's in the Hadith.
01:22:31.000 It's not kosher.
01:22:32.000 It's in the Hadith.
01:22:33.000 As the Democratic Mayoral candidate.
01:22:35.000 It's called mutah, right?
01:22:36.000 Oh, it's halal.
01:22:38.000 Yeah, it's in the, uh, it's in the Hadith.
01:22:40.000 The Arabic dictionaries define mutah as enjoyment, pleasure, delight.
01:22:44.000 The root form signifies to carry away, to take away.
01:22:47.000 A marriage of mutah is a marriage which the contract, uh, the contract stipulates will last for a fixed period of time.
01:22:53.000 This marriage of mutah is referred to both in the hadith literature and in much more detail in the books on jurisprudence.
01:23:02.000 In the Hadith and in other sayings related to early Muslims, the word muttah itself usually employed.
01:23:06.000 The Shia hold that this particular term is the preferred name for temporary marriage because the Quran itself refers to the kind of marriage employing a term derived from...
01:23:18.000 In the following verse, the word istma is the tenth verbal form of the root mut and is translated as enjoy.
01:23:27.000 So in the hadith, allegedly, it condones this kind of behavior.
01:23:32.000 It calls it a temporary marriage.
01:23:34.000 And so maybe that's where Zoran Mamdani is.
01:23:38.000 I knew they did sex slaves in Islam, but I didn't know it was halal to do prostitution allegedly.
01:23:44.000 I don't want to have to read into the Quran more than we already have.
01:23:46.000 So maybe we can.
01:23:47.000 Well, again, that's the hadith, not the Quran.
01:23:49.000 I mean, I don't know the difference, frankly.
01:23:52.000 Also, like another side problem with prostitution is it directly leads to human trafficking.
01:23:56.000 Because what you're doing is you're putting a price tag on consent.
01:23:59.000 And once you've done that, then trafficking is the next logical step.
01:24:02.000 And so, I mean, if you're against trafficking, then you should probably be against prostitution, because it's not good to be putting a price tag on consent, because consent doesn't have a priceice tag.
01:24:11.000 It's a mechanism, not an item for sale.
01:24:14.000 Fair enough.
01:24:17.000 So let's see.
01:24:18.000 I think we covered this about as much as we're going to cover it.
01:24:22.000 What did Search Up pull up?
01:24:24.000 What did Search Up?
01:24:26.000 Search Up was a drama stuff that we'll talk about in the after show.
01:24:31.000 Talking to Ashley St. Clair.
01:24:33.000 So, but we're going to jump to this one here from CBS News.
01:24:37.000 Yosemite Park Ranger who hung trans pride flag from El Capitan says they were fired.
01:24:42.000 Three months after a group of climbers hung a transgender pride flag from El Capitan, an iconic rock formation.
01:24:49.000 in Yosemite, the National Park Service fired a park ranger who was involved in the display, the former employee said.
01:24:55.000 Shannon SJ Jocelyn was terminated last week after working for nearly five years as a ranger and wildlife biologist at the Northern California National Park.
01:25:03.000 Jocelyn wrote in a social media post Monday that has since garnered widespread attention online.
01:25:09.000 In May, I hung a trans flag on El Capitan that celebrated my acceptance of my identity.
01:25:15.000 Jocelyn captioned the post.
01:25:17.000 I hung the flag in my free time, off duty as a private citizen.
01:25:21.000 It flew for a total of two hours in the morning, then I took it down.
01:25:26.000 Their ranger position is a dream job.
01:25:28.000 They were fired by a park official for failing to demonstrate acceptable conduct in their role as a Yosemite wildlife biologist, according to the social media post, which accuses the National Park Service of violating their constitutional rights to free expression.
01:25:42.000 Preservation has been my life's work of Yosemite, the wildlife, the land, recreation, of people's rights and safety, of community and acceptance, and now the constitutional First Amendment, Jocelyn wrote, adding, I want my rights and I want my career back.
01:25:56.000 Do you guys think that had this been a gigantic cross with Jesus on it, that this would have the same reaction or do you think that people on the left would take issue with itue with that.
01:26:10.000 They would take a huge issue with the cross.
01:26:11.000 Are you joking?
01:26:12.000 I mean, we this country's father and Judeo Christian values, so to speak, but we've changed quite a bit over the, over the centuries.
01:26:19.000 And it's weird to me.
01:26:20.000 Look, we can go to classrooms now.
01:26:21.000 They hang the Pride flag.
01:26:22.000 They don't even put Why does Pride get a month?
01:26:25.000 I gotta just ask that question.
01:26:27.000 Why we give we have Mother's Day one day, Father's Day.
01:26:29.000 We give our vets one day, but Pride gets a month?
01:26:32.000 Not a month.
01:26:33.000 The LGBT have a day fine.
01:26:35.000 But the LGBTQ lobby doesn't just get the month.
01:26:40.000 They get over a hundred days throughout the year because there's Pride month and then there's all sorts of national.
01:26:47.000 this, that or the other thing day that fall throughout the rest of the year.
01:26:50.000 So it's not just it goes on and on and on.
01:26:53.000 It's like, is it enough already?
01:26:54.000 Fine, get a day.
01:26:55.000 Fine, have them, let them have a day.
01:26:56.000 But this is just, I don't know, it's just, it's just weird to me.
01:26:59.000 And then they took the rainbow.
01:27:02.000 Sorry, but that's biblical.
01:27:03.000 But anything that degraded it is intentional.
01:27:07.000 Intentional.
01:27:08.000 Of course it is.
01:27:08.000 Yes, of course it is.
01:27:09.000 Yeah.
01:27:10.000 So I mean, personally, I'd have a Pride parade.
01:27:12.000 I mean, hello.
01:27:13.000 That's usually just a parade of people being.
01:27:17.000 Celebration of sex, yeah.
01:27:19.000 Yeah, it's just degeneracy.
01:27:21.000 Because you never see, or very rarely, is it not loaded with de half with either half or fully naked adults.
01:27:29.000 And oh, they perform sexual acts.
01:27:31.000 I've seen the photos and videos people have sent.
01:27:33.000 I'm going, you gotta be kidding me.
01:27:34.000 And then look, there's something that is wrong with making sex your identity, right?
01:27:40.000 Like the whole, your whole, when it comes to people in the LGBTQ lobby or whatever, their entire identity, their entire personality is wrapped around who they do, who they want to have sex with.
01:27:53.000 And that's the, the, the, the entire person.
01:27:56.000 It becomes all consuming.
01:27:59.000 There's this impulse on the left to center people.
01:28:03.000 on the margins and the LGBTQ ideologies are always on the margins.
01:28:09.000 And so they want to be centered.
01:28:11.000 They want to be focused on.
01:28:12.000 And this is something I've said a lot, but we need to reject the idea of centering the margins.
01:28:18.000 You don't want to center the margins.
01:28:19.000 You want to focus on the normal people.
01:28:21.000 And yes, I'm going to use the phrase normal.
01:28:24.000 You want to focus on the normal people that have normal marriages, man and wife, and that have want to have a normal family, because that's what will carry on the society that you live in.
01:28:34.000 If you have people that are that have alternative lifestyles, you can have a society that makes room for them.
01:28:40.000 But the idea that they should be celebrated is actually a terrible idea because it takes the focus off of the normal family, which again is what will continue your society.
01:28:52.000 If you care about just if you're making an economic argument, if you care about a tax base, then you need to have your, your next generation be as big or bigger than the one that you're in.
01:29:03.000 And we have, we are, we have fallen so far behind.
01:29:06.000 That's, yeah, we're in the negative growth.
01:29:09.000 Yeah, I mean, it's, it's looking like, I think Tim was, Tim was saying the other day that, yeah.
01:29:13.000 It's something like Gen Alpha has to have four kids to have enough children to carry on society.
01:29:19.000 Has that wife been out recently?
01:29:22.000 I will take, I wouldn't even venture to guess personally.
01:29:27.000 But I mean, you know, it used to be you have to have 2.1.
01:29:30.000 That's what the boomers needed.
01:29:32.000 And they fell short.
01:29:34.000 The millennials have fallen short.
01:29:36.000 And because they're falling short and because, like you said, it's happening all around the world.
01:29:40.000 It is.
01:29:42.000 But, like you said earlier, Muslims aren't.
01:29:43.000 They have five wives and five kids with each of them.
01:29:45.000 So they're growing astronomically.
01:29:47.000 Because, like you said earlier, the abortion issue is a real issue because that's 25 million people that never existed.
01:29:54.000 Yeah.
01:29:55.000 You know?
01:29:56.000 And so these things compound and we're going to have a massive problem Because it's not just going to be, oh, there aren't people around.
01:30:04.000 It means that there won't be people that can do the things that our society needs done to keep our society going.
01:30:11.000 There won't be the girls.
01:30:13.000 There will be 25% less women that Tate could have dated.
01:30:18.000 So now his potential girlfriend of Gen Z doesn't exist.
01:30:21.000 He has 25% less friends.
01:30:23.000 It's real.
01:30:25.000 Less dating potential on the dating market.
01:30:28.000 Just like with stuff like this, I think you should just be inherently skeptical of anything that's promoting something that kills your bloodline.
01:30:35.000 Abortion, like homosexual parades or whatever.
01:30:39.000 It's like, look, tolerance is one thing, but like celebration of something that's actually kind of tragic.
01:30:44.000 I just don't see this as beneficial for Americans in any way because we already have such a culture of nihilism, especially with Zoomers, that by just reemphasizing and recentering human behavior that kills your bloodline, that extinguishes your family lineage, I mean, that's not, I mean, that's a very sad thing.
01:31:04.000 And I mean, especially we see with abortion.
01:31:05.000 I mean, it's just nonstop promotion of it.
01:31:08.000 And it's like, how is this beneficial to recent something so antihuman, anti birth and anti, or antinatal, I guess is the word to use?
01:31:17.000 I think the best, humanity's best chance of overcoming this birth rate deficit, well, it actually depends on where you look at because they don't have birth deficits in India or Nigeria.
01:31:27.000 They do in India now.
01:31:28.000 Now they do really in India?
01:31:29.000 It's getting to the point where the third world is now cratering in birth rates.
01:31:33.000 If we want I think if we want to reverse this issue, particularly in the West, the key to doing so is going back to religiosity.
01:31:40.000 If you're looking for the groups of people in our country right now that are still reproducing at over replacement rates, it's our people who are religious.
01:31:47.000 It's random Amish communities throughout the country.
01:31:50.000 It's Orthodox Jewish communities.
01:31:51.000 These communities have like six, seven, eight, nine kids.
01:31:56.000 And religiosity trends towards having more children.
01:31:59.000 As we get more secular, we have less.
01:32:02.000 So I think that's the major trend.
01:32:03.000 Doesn't that require belief?
01:32:04.000 It does.
01:32:05.000 Because part of the reason why society, you know, modern secular society doesn't have the same type of faith is because science has actually answered a lot of things that were not answered before.
01:32:20.000 And if you couldn't answer the questions, people would say, well, you know, maybe it's God or we don't understand.
01:32:24.000 Not to say that there is no room for God in a, you know, in a secular or in a modern society, but that is going to.
01:32:33.000 inevitably make people say, well, maybe if we can actually figure these things out, maybe God isn't real.
01:32:38.000 You know, we can, we, nobody thinks, oh, lightning is God anymore.
01:32:42.000 Nobody thinks that, that the, the sun coming up and going down is because God wills it.
01:32:48.000 Don't do it.
01:32:50.000 The point that I'm making is with a modern society like we have, a lot of those questions are answered.
01:32:57.000 And so I do think that, that the lack of religion leaves a God, basically a God-shaped hole in people's, in people's lives.
01:33:06.000 But I also think that people are, are reluctant to, to feel God.
01:33:10.000 to fill it with religion because they feel like, well, that's old.
01:33:18.000 The questions have been answered.
01:33:20.000 Science has answered that.
01:33:22.000 And so I think that's a significant reason as to why.
01:33:26.000 And I'd be interested in what you guys think of that.
01:33:30.000 Interesting.
01:33:32.000 I did a documentary that's coming out.
01:33:34.000 It's called Against the World.
01:33:35.000 And I did it with John Lennox.
01:33:36.000 John Lennox is a very famous.
01:33:39.000 John Lennox is amazing.
01:33:40.000 He's an apologist, retired math professor from Oxford University.
01:33:43.000 We shot three weeks in Oxford, two weeks in Israel.
01:33:46.000 And it's called Against the World.
01:33:48.000 It's about proving proving God in a world of science and I call it apologetics for dummies like me because he guys just he's amazing and he's brilliant and I think anybody everybody should watch this you don't have to be a person of faith to watch this just to listen to what he has to say and you you'll see clips of him debating Singer and Dawkins and Hitchens really world-famous apologetic atheist and He kills them with kindness is what he kills them with more than anything else.
01:34:16.000 And it's just pretty fantastic.
01:34:18.000 I want people to check it out.
01:34:19.000 It's coming out later this year and it's called Against the World.
01:34:22.000 And it's, you know, I look at the stars at night and I go, well, somebebody made this and it wasn't me, you know?
01:34:28.000 And that's where I believe there's a God, there's an intelligent design behind this because I could look at this desk right here and they go, where do you think this came from?
01:34:34.000 And I go, well, exactly.
01:34:34.000 Somebody made it.
01:34:35.000 I don't have all the answers either, but if I look at the infinity that it just goes forever and there's billions of galaxies out there or something, it's pretty mind-boggling to think that it just happened.
01:34:47.000 I don't have all the answers, but to me, I believe there was, there's a higher power that created all of this.
01:34:52.000 Yeah.
01:34:53.000 Yeah, I totally agree.
01:34:54.000 John Lennox is brilliant.
01:34:55.000 Richard Dawkins' debate, that's like the philosophical beat down.
01:35:00.000 John Lennox is the goat.
01:35:02.000 I do think to a certain degree it is kind of sad that the only, if the only way to increase the birth rate would be like like a return to like ludditism, like the Amish.
01:35:11.000 I do hope that we're able to create an environment where technology can still progress while simultaneously keeping the birth rate above the water.
01:35:22.000 I had Nate Fisher.
01:35:23.000 He was a guest on my, I covered for the morning show about a week and a half ago, and we had Nate Fisher on, who is a pro AI.
01:35:29.000 A lot would hate him.
01:35:30.000 He's super pro AI.
01:35:32.000 And he actually proposed this interesting, he had an interesting proposal for the future, which is clearly the one common denominator with countries that are experiencing birth rate deficiencies is women's workplace participation.
01:35:44.000 Is when women are in the workplace, they're working the same hours as men.
01:35:46.000 They just simply don't have time for childbirth.
01:35:49.000 And if you're in a developed country, uh, having a child is an economic negative.
01:35:54.000 It's just a bad decision to make if you're trying to make money.
01:35:56.000 That's just the way it is.
01:35:57.000 I hate that as a, as a Christian, but it is what it is.
01:36:00.000 And his proposal was that as AI evolves, it can knock out a lot of these laptop jobs, these fake email jobs.
01:36:07.000 And typically these jobs are manned by women because they're less physically intensive.
01:36:11.000 And so when AI comes in and replaces these jobs, along with, you know, preventing the need for extra migrant labor, is that could actually return us back to a more, um, pre-postmodern, um, civilizational structure where women are able to stay at home and the man is able to make enough money to support the family on a single income because these companies will have more, sorry, they won't require as much labor to perform the same.
01:36:36.000 Do you think that it's economically based, honestly?
01:36:39.000 Is that the I suspect, I mean, I do think religiosity is to a certain extent.
01:36:45.000 I mean, because for example, Israel is a developed country where women are in the workforce and they do have a net positive birth rate, but that's kind of a situation.
01:36:53.000 Isn't that because of the orthodox that are super Even among conservative Jews, like they still have a positive birth rate and I suspect that's because they have a mission as a society.
01:37:02.000 And again, I don't think it's sustainable.
01:37:04.000 I don't think every country can have a mission as a society.
01:37:06.000 Like, regardless, the United States and Canada and the UK are not going to have existential threats all the time.
01:37:12.000 And so wouldn't that, wouldn't that need a, wouldn't it need the same kind of like we need to keep our people, like an ethnonationalism to keep to inspire people to say, I need to make sure that because that's one of the things that the Israelis have, right?
01:37:28.000 To some extent, but you have ethnostates around the world, effective ethnostates, and they're the worst off, like Japan, South Korea, China.
01:37:35.000 I mean, China is an explicitly Han state that is the purpose is to expel and sponge the entire land of other ethnic minorities and create this Han ethnostat.
01:37:46.000 And they can't keep their birth rate above water.
01:37:48.000 So it's like, I don't think that's enough.
01:37:50.000 And if anything, it actually makes it worse with the track record that we see in East Asia.
01:37:53.000 Well, they're in trouble in China because they've had over 450 forced abortions.
01:37:58.000 Most of them are female.
01:37:59.000 Their population is 55% male, which a lot of people don't realize.
01:38:02.000 Which, like, historically that means civil war or some kind of, some kind of adventure is.
01:38:07.000 China's adventure is a little overrated as far as like a looming superpower.
01:38:12.000 They actually have far more systemic issues than the United States has.
01:38:17.000 But yeah, so I mean, like, yeah., I do agree, like religiosity.
01:38:20.000 I mean, again, as a Christian, I've been incentived for that to be the case.
01:38:23.000 And it certainly helps.
01:38:24.000 Like evangelicals have the exact same economic pressures as the rest of the country, but evangelicals do have a higher birth rate.
01:38:31.000 Granted, it's still below replacement.
01:38:32.000 I think it's about 1.8, 1.9, but that's far higher than the American average, which is like 1.5, 1.6.
01:38:37.000 And even white evangelicals is still that number.
01:38:40.000 And white people in the country, it's like 1.4.
01:38:43.000 So, but religiosity doesn't fix it all.
01:38:45.000 Like, you do need to restructure how families are able to form and what your civilization prioritizes in a family unit.
01:38:52.000 Do you think that there would ever come a point where the government would outlaw things like birth control and outlaw abortion so that way the population can actually reproduce.
01:39:05.000 Because it's my, I think that the pill and abortion are the two biggest things as to why there are, why we don't have a replacement rate.
01:39:18.000 Because it used to be where, you know, if a girl got pregnant, the guy would marry her.
01:39:24.000 And that was just what happened.
01:39:24.000 Right.
01:39:26.000 You got a girl pregnant.
01:39:27.000 Well, that's your wife.
01:39:28.000 Now you go to the shotgun wedding and everything.
01:39:31.000 And that's something that was kind of like that was the way that it was throughout a lot of history.
01:39:37.000 And when that stopped being the case, you know, when you no longer had the shotgun wedding, when you had abortion as, you know, available for anyone and you have the birth control pill to prevent pregnancy, that's when you saw the real beginning of the decline in the replacement rate.
01:39:58.000 Well, I think through education, through public education, through universities, through movies that Hollywood does, television, I think that we, that people get married much later now.
01:40:07.000 I think people stay pretty much children still through their twenties now.
01:40:11.000 They don't, they're not ready to grow up.
01:40:13.000 And so you're looking at the average age of getting married is much higher than it was just, you know, two generations ago.
01:40:18.000 It's changed drastically.
01:40:20.000 And they don't want to have, they want to just maybe have a kid and have it much later when they're in their thirties or even in their forties if they are able to.
01:40:27.000 But I mean, it's changed.
01:40:29.000 And I think just that mentality towards marriage and having kids has been sort of, there's been an indoctrination through, I think, the mainstream media and through Hollywood and what Hollywood does.
01:40:39.000 Well, and it also came with the territory of modernization and with eliminating infant mortality is where in the last 60 years, this is the first time in human history where people have kids because they want kids versus having kids because they need kids.
01:40:52.000 Because prior to, let's just say, the world wars., people needed kids because they needed food.
01:40:57.000 So we were agriculturally based, it's true.
01:41:00.000 I mean, I look at both my grandparents, I came over here, both sets came over from Norway and they had my grandparents were part, they had like they were part of ten or eleven kids in each family.
01:41:09.000 Yeah.
01:41:10.000 They had to work the farms.
01:41:10.000 Yeah.
01:41:11.000 It was all about working the farms.
01:41:12.000 And even then, like, and then beyond that, even people that were urban, highly urbanized people, because they did exist before the world wars, is they even felt they needed kids for that religious reason and also like to pass on family heroes, pass on wealth, guarantee that wealth stayed within like a controlled environment.
01:41:31.000 So now people just have kids., it's like, oh, I'd like to have a kid.
01:41:34.000 Like the same reason people have, I hate to equivale it, but it's the same reason people have a dog.
01:41:37.000 It's like, oh, it'd be nice to have a dog around.
01:41:38.000 That's what people do.
01:41:39.000 It's like, oh, it'd be nice to have a kid around.
01:41:40.000 People don't really have this, like, I think they do, but they're just ignoring it.
01:41:44.000 I do think a lot of people actually have this deep desire to extend their bloodline, to have a kid.
01:41:49.000 But I think a lot of people are able to back fill that with dogs or consumer products.
01:41:53.000 I think women do, particularly when they get close to thirty.
01:41:56.000 That was Jordan Peterson actually.
01:41:56.000 Oh, yeah.
01:41:58.000 He said, when he was practicing clinical psychologist, he said the toughest case.
01:42:02.000 I mean, he had people like veterans coming in that had seen their brothers die, you know, children that had been beaten, like the worst things you could possibly imagine.
01:42:10.000 He said the most difficult cases he had to handle were postmenopause women that never had children.
01:42:16.000 Oh.
01:42:18.000 Okay.
01:42:18.000 So.

01:43:20.000 Dude, earlier I saw you sitting in that seat without the hat and I thought you were Tim without the beanie.
01:43:24.000 No, well, I mean, I swear to God, I thought it was the same bald head.
01:43:28.000 Yeah.
01:43:29.000 Tim and I look different.
01:43:31.000 All you bald people look alike.
01:43:32.000 You're all just a bunch of thumbs, that's it.
01:43:36.000 All these in black shirts.
01:43:37.000 That's right.
01:43:38.000 Let's see.
01:43:40.000 KS Corey says it would be nice, it would be nice to see all the stuff about our history that the Smithsonian has been hiding for a hundred years like giants.
01:43:49.000 Real Nephilim release the Nephilim files.
01:43:52.000 Enough about Epstein, release the Nephilim files.
01:43:54.000 We know that we found some in Afghanistan.
01:43:57.000 You know, we heard we brought them over in our big helicopter.
01:43:59.000 Like, let's see them.
01:44:00.000 I know they're out there.
01:44:01.000 I don't buy it.
01:44:02.000 And we could put them in the NBA possibly.
01:44:03.000 I'm not buying it.
01:44:04.000 Memphis Grizzlies need another center and Zachary is not enough.
01:44:06.000 We need more.
01:44:06.000 So maybe we need a Nephilim.
01:44:07.000 I don't know, I'm just spitting on here.
01:44:09.000 AK Storm 49 says, Tate, sir.
01:44:12.000 You were trashing Alaska while talking about the Putin-Trump meeting.
01:44:16.000 Ask Tim how gorgeous Anchorage was while he was there.
01:44:19.000 Plus, they meet at JBER, which is gorgeous and busy.
01:44:23.000 I just look, Anchorage is Alaska's beautiful, they should have met in Juneau.
01:44:29.000 Have you been to Alaska?
01:44:30.000 Yeah, I have.
01:44:30.000 I've been to the I've been to Alaska and I think Juneau is one of the most beautiful cities in the United States.
01:44:37.000 That's why I just felt like putting him on an air force base in Anchorage.
01:44:41.000 I think Alaska has more to offer.
01:44:42.000 That's what I was trying to get at.
01:44:43.000 And you also have to understand, like, I'm so terrified on the morning show sometimes that I don't express enough thoughts that I don't flesh out my thoughts enough sometimes.
01:44:51.000 And this was definitely one case.
01:44:53.000 I feel very sad that people think I hate Alaska.
01:44:53.000 I love Alaska.
01:44:56.000 I'm so sorry.
01:44:57.000 No, I love Alaska.
01:44:58.000 You didn't get it.
01:44:58.000 You defined it.
01:44:59.000 Don't tell me.
01:44:59.000 Walking it back, huh?
01:45:00.000 I'm walking it back.
01:45:02.000 I'm walking it back.
01:45:03.000 A couple of years ago, I got to be the celebrity starter for the Iditarod.
01:45:06.000 Oh, nice.
01:45:07.000 They got what?
01:45:07.000 It was awesome.
01:45:08.000 The Iditarod.
01:45:09.000 It's a 1,000 mile sled sled race they have through Alaska every week.
01:45:12.000 I've been doing it for a hundred years or something.
01:45:14.000 Yeah.
01:45:14.000 So they hooked up my own sled to another guy's sled and his pack of twelve dogs.
01:45:19.000 So I said for the first twelve miles, it was me.
01:45:21.000 And he said, whatever I do with my body, you do the same thing.
01:45:24.000 I worked my butt all the way down this side.
01:45:25.000 You better go, because you'll flip over and you're slack.
01:45:27.000 It was awesome.
01:45:28.000 Wow.
01:45:29.000 That's a beautiful thing.
01:45:29.000 It was so cool.
01:45:31.000 It's a beautiful thing.
01:45:32.000 Let's see.
01:45:33.000 Black Nexus says, I loved Hercules and even more so Andromeda.
01:45:37.000 Thanks for being an inspiration on and off the screen, mister Sorbo.
01:45:40.000 Oh, very kind.
01:45:41.000 Thank you so much.
01:45:42.000 I appreciate that.
01:45:42.000 I got more to come.
01:45:43.000 sorbostudios.com.
01:45:45.000 Go there.
01:45:45.000 I got four movies coming out this year and three documentaries.
01:45:48.000 One is that one.
01:45:48.000 One is on the Last Supper.
01:45:50.000 Oh, that's right.
01:45:51.000 It's called Eating with the Enemy.
01:45:52.000 Oh.
01:45:53.000 Pretty interesting.
01:45:54.000 And she's pretty.
01:45:54.000 Brent Miller's company, Ingenuity Films, a very, very good company.
01:45:57.000 Let's go.
01:45:58.000 Awesome.
01:46:00.000 Burt Crash says, I hope Tim's voice returns.
01:46:02.000 It just turns into the gravely Alex Jones time when he comes back and starts railing about Alad being his handler and that he can't handle it anymore.
01:46:12.000 InshaAllah.
01:46:15.000 I don't know if he's going to have that kind of gravely Alex Jones thing or not, but I talked to him a little bit today and he's still, it's still pretty beaten up.
01:46:24.000 It's kind of rough, so I'm not sure.
01:46:25.000 I thought he was going to be back today.
01:46:27.000 Many of us thought he was going to be back, but I wouldn't be surprised if he's not back tomorrow either.
01:46:27.000 I thought so too.
01:46:31.000 We did the pre show.
01:46:32.000 At least we got a little bit of it in our heads.
01:46:34.000 Which is good.
01:46:35.000 And yeah, if I, if I'm on the morning show tomorrow, it will be a 30-minute apology to the state of Alaska directed.
01:46:40.000 Directed title to Sarah Palo most of all.
01:46:43.000 Never, never say your son.
01:46:44.000 There'll be a nice dog sledding compilation.
01:46:47.000 Never, never apologize.
01:46:48.000 They'll look at it like I'll use, I'll use mister Sorbo's videos and it'll be a beautiful thing.
01:46:54.000 Happy Garand says, 29 years old and I just bought my first house, ordered some Cass Brew to celebrate.
01:47:00.000 Congratulations.
01:47:01.000 Oh, let's, let's, let's hear that.
01:47:03.000 That's great to hear that there are some, some people in their twenties that can afford a home.
01:47:08.000 Yeah, you know, great word, King.
01:47:08.000 Defining the odds.
01:47:10.000 Keep it.
01:47:10.000 Good job.
01:47:12.000 All right, let's see.
01:47:13.000 Waffle Sensei says, Kevin, how was it working with Mercer in the Mythica series?
01:47:18.000 And do you think Hollywood could succeed doing that for classic style of filmmaking?
01:47:23.000 Yeah, if they had the budget for that.
01:47:25.000 We did.
01:47:25.000 It was five movies, kind of a part of the poor man's sort of what am I thinking of?
01:47:32.000 Poor man's version of Lord of the Rings.
01:47:35.000 It was shot in the mountains in Provo, Utah, and it was pretty cool.
01:47:35.000 But it was cool.
01:47:39.000 I played sort of the Gandalf type character in it, but it was good.
01:47:42.000 I think that idea would be great if you get a bigger budget with it.
01:47:45.000 They did a great job.
01:47:46.000 They did a great job putting them together.
01:47:47.000 And it was you can get the five part, it's five movies you can get on one DVD section.
01:47:52.000 It's pretty cool.
01:47:53.000 DVDs are dying, but it's out there.
01:47:55.000 It's still a big market.
01:47:55.000 It's out there.
01:47:56.000 I still have them.
01:47:57.000 I still have them.
01:47:58.000 Yeah.
01:48:00.000 All right, let's see.
01:48:01.000 Tyrant God says, happy to see Hercules back on the show.
01:48:05.000 Grew up watching the legendary journey.
01:48:06.000 And as a kid, it showed me a good man stands up for what is right.
01:48:10.000 PS, my username is inspired by Hercules and God of War.
01:48:13.000 That's awesome.
01:48:14.000 I did the voice of God of War 3.
01:48:16.000 Yeah.
01:48:16.000 It's so funny.
01:48:16.000 I did.
01:48:17.000 There's a thing called Gen Con Indianapolis.
01:48:18.000 I still do about five or six Comic Cons a year because of Hercules and Andromeda.
01:48:22.000 I was in Prague last year at one of them.
01:48:23.000 It's pretty cool.
01:48:24.000 That's cool.
01:48:25.000 And so Gen Con's in Indianapolis, I must have signed 500 of these God of War 3s.
01:48:30.000 And every guy came up and said, dude, your awesomeness.
01:48:32.000 I'm sorry I had to kill you, but it was really cool.
01:48:36.000 It is cool.
01:48:38.000 My band was in a video game called Guitar Hero 2, and kids would come up with the controller, this guitar stuff, and you'd have sign it.
01:48:44.000 So it's super flattering when people bring that kind of stuff up, and they're just like, you know, so that's awesome to hear.
01:48:50.000 Let's see.
01:48:52.000 Mythos 671 says, in Afghanistan, we had them dip their thumb in long-lasting ink when they voted, so they couldn't vote twice.
01:49:01.000 They did the same thing in Iraq, right?
01:49:02.000 They had the green.
01:49:03.000 I mean...
01:49:17.000 So I imagine that the idea of making sure that we can prove that someone already voted, that's something the Democrats would just fight against.
01:49:26.000 So I'm not sure how well that's working for them in Iraq and Afghanistan as far as their democracy goes.
01:49:31.000 It works well in Mozambique.
01:49:32.000 I had a friend who was in Mozambique, they had a big civil war recently over an election gone wrong.
01:49:39.000 And I had a friend, he was from England and he was in Mozambique at the time.
01:49:43.000 And the day of the election, a police officer asked if he wanted to vote for five dollars.
01:49:47.000 And he was about to until they made him put it.
01:49:49.000 They wanted him to put his finger in ink.
01:49:50.000 And he knew he'd not be able to get out of the country if he did that because it would have stained for months at a time.
01:49:55.000 So Mosinbeek, it's working pretty well.
01:49:57.000 There you go.
01:49:58.000 Yeah.
01:49:59.000 Besides the Civil War, obviously.
01:50:00.000 I don't think it's correlated, but.
01:50:02.000 I identify as tax exempt, says Republicans are red, Democrats are blue.
01:50:06.000 No matter what you choose, you get Dick Cheney.
01:50:10.000 Based?
01:50:12.000 I almost said based, too.
01:50:15.000 You're a winner either way.
01:50:16.000 Well, that's the libertarian being upset about that, just so you know.
01:50:20.000 you know the sadder they are the happier i am all right let's see what we got here fuck it button says i get the blameaming California mentality and it's not wrong, but by far the biggest problem is insane, rabid, native born Texasan leftists.
01:50:40.000 They are far more than I ever expected.
01:50:42.000 California never lib even once now Texas.
01:50:45.000 Well, Bernie Sanders is from a majority white state as I understand it.
01:50:50.000 Well, I mean, that is true Texas.
01:50:52.000 Tony Ortiz came on and this is a stat that actually a lot of Texas politics experts, experts love citing is that with the Ted Cruz Beto O'Rourke Senate race, for example, is native born Texas actually voted blue 5545 and transplants voted 55, 45 for Ted Cruz.
01:51:12.000 So the numbers suggest that it's actually the transplants coming from presumably blue states that are keeping the state red and the native born Texans are the ones that are voting blue.
01:51:23.000 And this does make sense because it's like, yeah, if you did come from California, you would probably not be keen on voting Democrat.
01:51:29.000 Obviously, this doesn't always happen like in Nevada and Arizona, but at least in Texas, it seems to be the case by the, by the data, it's actually the native born Texans.
01:51:36.000 You have to consider the massive demographic shifts that occurred in Texas throughout the eighties and nineties and two thousand.
01:51:42.000 It is not the same.
01:51:44.000 It's not the same demographic that you had in the eighties that was, you know, that you're.
01:51:48.000 cowboys and that sort of thing.
01:51:50.000 I think there's also something to the overinclusivity of what it means to be white.
01:51:54.000 Whites in Vermont are different from whites in West Virginia, are different from whites in Pennsylvania, are different from whites in Illinois.
01:52:02.000 They they came from different backgrounds, have different values, are different versions of Christians.
01:52:07.000 Right.
01:52:08.000 I mean, the downstream effects of that, you know, it is overinclusive to just say, Oh, white people and they all think the same and they're all Americans in the same way.
01:52:16.000 I do think they're broadly homogenizing.
01:52:17.000 I think like white voters are now more impacted by their environment.
01:52:21.000 Like I think white voters in New England, the reason they are so democratic is because they're not typically exposeded to the result of their policies like people in larger states like Ohio, Ellinois, for example, like diversity, like when you import a bunch of immigrants, people in states with high powered economies are going to feel that a lot heavier than like if you're in Vermont where it's 98 percent.
01:52:42.000 I think it's like it's downstream effects of where they immigrated to, as I believe North in the New England area was mostly from England.
01:52:50.000 In like Pennsylvania, as I understand, there were a lot of Germans who came over.
01:52:54.000 And like these are different pockets of different whites and in any other context would be considered, you know, completely different and different religions and have blood feuds going back thousands of years.
01:53:05.000 But now since we're in America and the skin just kind of looks the same.
01:53:08.000 It's we're over inclusive with them.
01:53:10.000 I think that's definitely a situation.
01:53:11.000 Yeah.
01:53:12.000 I mean, there's definitely something to be said with, like, New England WASPs being very liberal now.
01:53:12.000 Yeah.
01:53:17.000 But I, like, I said earlier, the reason I say it's homogenizing is because, A, like, the influx of white Americans that came, you know, with the Ellis Island wave sort of just flooded the entire country and it, and it did have a homogenizing effect.
01:53:29.000 All the local cultures from, like, there's a great book, Albion Seed that discusses, like, the different migration patterns of people from England.
01:53:36.000 Like, that's, that's a whole different thing.
01:53:38.000 But, like, New England, for example, the majority of whites in New England now are Irish and Italian, from New Hampshire to Massachusetts to Connecticut.
01:53:45.000 So it's like, okay, yes, the WASASPs did shape the culture there, and the culture to this day does reflect that kind of early WASP heritage, but the vast majority of whites there don't trace the majority of their lineage to that, and that's broadly the case across the country now.
01:54:00.000 I mean, you still the South, okay, yes, the Scots, Irish influence is still there, but whites are becoming more of a monolith, and they're moving around a lot too.
01:54:11.000 Like, I mean, maybe a hundred years ago that would be one hundred percent the case, but yeah, those sort of migration patterns are starting to become less relevant as the country becomes more jumbled.
01:54:24.000 And like I said, the Ellis Island waves of migration as well.
01:54:27.000 Michael Thompson says, something you didn't know about the trucking story from yesterday.
01:54:32.000 The company he was driving for had been shut down and had merely changed numbers and physical addresses before restarting.
01:54:38.000 No change.
01:54:40.000 So this I think is why you need to expropriate their property if they're hiring illegals, take their stuff and sell their stuff to other people and throw them in jail for hiring illegal aliens.
01:54:54.000 Did you see the trucking story?
01:54:56.000 I did not.
01:54:57.000 It was crazy.
01:54:58.000 It was in Florida.
01:54:59.000 There was a legal immigrant trucker from India.
01:55:02.000 Oh, no, I saw that.
01:55:03.000 Yeah, and he just U turned it.
01:55:04.000 He tried to take a U turn in the middle of a freeway.
01:55:06.000 Yeah, killed three people.
01:55:06.000 Killed three Americans.
01:55:08.000 No, I saw that and his reaction was like, when something hit me, just turn around.
01:55:11.000 No, I did see that.
01:55:12.000 Yeah, horrible.
01:55:13.000 It was a California issued CDO, go figure.
01:55:15.000 Yeah.
01:55:16.000 So it's terrible.
01:55:16.000 Yeah.
01:55:18.000 It's terrible and, and, you know, we need to do something to make it difficult or illegal to live here.
01:55:25.000 And I think that one of the things that Democrats say, say all the time is, oh, you know, why don't you ever go after the people that hire them?
01:55:33.000 Well, guess what?
01:55:34.000 I think we should.
01:55:35.000 I think we should take their shit.
01:55:36.000 I think we should throw them in jail, take their business, take their property.
01:55:40.000 their problems because they know what they're doing they know they're hiring look people i the majority people coming across the last four years or every year they want to be in america and i get it and they're good people the majority they're still breaking the law yeah you're still breaking the law come across legally yeah My grandparents did, you know, just come and do the legal thing.
01:56:00.000 I mean, it's weird to me.
01:56:01.000 It's, it's, and people are all upset about, you know, what we're taking.
01:56:04.000 I was in, who was the female governor Jan, Arizona years ago?
01:56:09.000 What was her name?
01:56:10.000 Oh, man.
01:56:11.000 If you go back 10, 12, 15 years or whatever, she was the one that first had a big issue was going on with all these illegals coming across.
01:56:18.000 And she said, I'm going to endorse, I'm going to enforce the Jan Brewer.
01:56:22.000 Jan Brewer, thank you.
01:56:24.000 I'm going to enforce the laws of the land.
01:56:26.000 And there was a woman that had 180 and I was a fan.
01:56:28.000 I said, yeah, we should, we should, she goes, we should have open borders.
01:56:30.000 I said, no, we shouldn't.
01:56:32.000 And so she just got in my face.
01:56:34.000 And I said, okay, you go home tonight and there's a family of seven in your living room.
01:56:37.000 I'd let them stay, she said, which is such a liberal thing to say.
01:56:41.000 Because they have so much more.
01:56:42.000 Oh, they care so much more.
01:56:43.000 I go, you get rid of your family after three days of Christmas.
01:56:46.000 Give me a break.
01:56:47.000 You're going to let this family of seven people you don't know in your house stay with you.
01:56:51.000 I mean, they try to be so, oh, you're so much more better and noble than you are, but it's all just such an act.
01:56:56.000 It's like the permissiveness of it.
01:56:57.000 Like I looked up into this guy's case or like the truck driver we're talking about, and like he had he had not understood like I think most of the signage is like he didn't understand half of like the questions and they still gave him the license they still permitted and said oh you can just have this like the people that are hiring like Phil has said are those the people that we need to be like actually grilling and punishing because that's who's providing this whole ecosystem for all these people you know?
01:57:19.000 Can I go out on the limb here and say something about the truckers too?
01:57:22.000 Do we is it just me or do we put them on a bit of a pedestal?
01:57:25.000 Yeah, because I don't No, no, I don't know because I drive a lot and I spend a lot of time on the road and I spent a lot of time on tour dealing with truckers and dealing with truckers at truck stops.
01:57:38.000 I do not put them on a pedestal.
01:57:38.000 I don't put those men on a pedestal.
01:57:40.000 I feel like the truck drivers are doing important work.
01:57:44.000 Everybody does all work, you know, yeah, yeah.
01:57:46.000 Something we should admire and think people are doing hard at, but like, how do you how do you how do you think freight in this country travels mostly by train by rail or by truck?
01:57:53.000 Mostly by truck.
01:57:54.000 I would say truck.
01:57:54.000 I would say truck.
01:57:55.000 Yeah, truck.
01:57:55.000 I understand.
01:57:56.000 But that, you know, all jobs have value, but that doesn't mean I have to love truck drivers who drive like I'm not saying you have to love this.
01:58:01.000 Their offs on the highway, which is not where So we're not the best drivers.
01:58:05.000 Yeah, okay.
01:58:06.000 I feel like we always say like, oh, they're the lifeline of the nation and you know, they provide a great service.
01:58:10.000 And they always, what do you have a truck?
01:58:13.000 They always pull in front of me when I'm cruising.
01:58:15.000 Yeah.
01:58:16.000 And they go seven 71 to pass the truck going 70.
01:58:19.000 Yeah.
01:58:19.000 It takes awesome to get to the right.
01:58:23.000 Every night when I do my outro or when I get done, the last thing I say is the left lane is for crime.
01:58:28.000 Yeah.
01:58:29.000 Because you should not be in the left lane doing 65 or less.
01:58:32.000 You should be.
01:58:33.000 You should be doing more than that.
01:58:35.000 Anyway, imagine the pissed off truck driver at Tim Caspiere watching.
01:58:39.000 Look, there's a lot of trash in there.
01:58:42.000 Everyone can just swallow his mommy.
01:58:46.000 I'm critical of truck drivers on X frequently.
01:58:50.000 And I take a lot of heat about it.
01:58:53.000 Because I'll be like, you know, I. I'll be like, you know, I can't, so when I first heard about this particular, this particular story, I was like, I can't wait until AI trucks are the majority of trucks on the road.
01:59:04.000 And boy, did people hate it.
01:59:06.000 Some dude got all up and he's like, I can't wait until AI takes your job.
01:59:10.000 I'm like, bro, I'm a musician.
01:59:13.000 It's already like, twenty friggin' years ago, my industry was destroyed.
01:59:19.000 So don't tell me about, oh, look, you're going to destroy my industry.
01:59:23.000 Deal with it.
01:59:24.000 Truck drivers, don't worry.
01:59:24.000 That's what happens.
01:59:26.000 I got your backs.
01:59:26.000 These AI clankers are not coming for your jobs.
01:59:29.000 I will not let it happen.
01:59:30.000 It's not going to happen.
01:59:31.000 Yeah, they are.
01:59:32.000 Yeah, they are.
01:59:33.000 Zero percent.
01:59:34.000 Millennial Mechanics says, continuing the tradition of posting.
01:59:37.000 We just got home with my newborn.
01:59:39.000 He's a whole day old and we love him so much.
