00:02:47.000We'll see if it sticks this time, but it's a little bit more clever this time around because Stephen Miller, speaking as the president is signing this EO, says this is based off of the Supreme Court's language pertaining to birthright citizenship.
00:03:01.000So this is going to end birth tourism and it's going to make sure, as defined by the Supreme Court, if you are subject to the jurisdiction of somebody else, Then you are not going to be a citizen if you're born here.
00:03:13.000Notably, what I found interesting, he said, alien enemies, which is an interesting way to define these things because I'm wondering if they're going to try and play it up like if you illegally enter the United States, you are an enemy of the United States,
00:03:27.000or if they literally mean the Chinese as a codified adversary of the United States, in which case a lot of this Chinese birth tourism is effectively done.
00:03:37.000But illegal immigration, you know, birth.
00:03:41.000Tourism, coyotes, what are you going to call it?
00:04:15.000And the reason they'll only post a picture, not a video, is because if you watched the video, you'd realize the dude had a stroke and he can't talk, right?
00:04:51.000Without our members, we would not be doing this show.
00:04:53.000So if you believe that we have to challenge the lies that come out of the fake news and you appreciate this show, then join us at timcast.com.
00:06:27.000Trump tries new tack against birthright citizenship after Supreme Court snob.
00:06:33.000Let's just jump into the video here and play the clip with Stephen Miller.
00:06:38.000The President is using his authority as Commander in Chief to sign first an executive order using the new ruling the Supreme Court issued to expand the definitions of people who are ineligible for birthright citizenship.
00:06:50.000That includes, for example, alien enemies of the United States, members of foreign terrorist organizations, and large categories of people who lobby and act on behalf of foreign governments.
00:07:01.000And so, with taking this action, it ensures that large numbers of people who wrongly would be getting birthright citizenship will no longer be eligible for those benefits.
00:07:14.000It means Chinese birth tourism, they're not.
00:07:18.000So China's actually codified as an adversary of the United States.
00:07:21.000So I think that's one of the plays they're making.
00:07:22.000One of the biggest concerns, of course, with birth tourism.
00:07:25.000Obviously, we don't want lobbyists, foreign lobbyists, to be coming in and their kids can become citizens here.
00:07:31.000But you know, the left and liberals are going to argue against what Trump is saying and they're going to make up some weird fake reason as to why we have to allow Chinese people to come here, give birth, and then leave right away.
00:07:44.000What was it he said after alien enemies of the United States?
00:07:49.000Well, let's play it again and get the exact quote there.
00:07:53.000New ruling the Supreme Court issued to expand the definitions of people who are ineligible for birthright citizenship.
00:07:59.000That includes, for example, alien enemies of the United States, members of foreign terrorist organizations, and large categories of people who lobby and act on behalf of foreign governments.
00:08:19.000I like that he pointed out people that lobby on behalf of because that's the kind of stuff that goes after talking heads that are actually getting their, you know, their talking points from China.
00:09:45.000So if Trend Day Aragua and these other groups are already FTOs, and they're going to say, this person was paying members of foreign terrorist organizations, they're Boom, that's it.
00:10:26.000Well, I mean, the likelihood is there that this gets struck down, yeah, just because of the fact that there are so many judges that don't like Trump.
00:10:34.000But I mean, look, I do like the fact that he's continuing to push this issue.
00:10:39.000You know, the Supreme Court, in my opinion, they got it wrong about birthright citizenship because the argument being made wasn't just, hey, you know,
00:12:23.000As you were saying yesterday, I feel like it's actually kind of, it should be easier to see from a normie's perspective where it's like, if you ask a normal person who's not politically active, they don't think a lot about it.
00:12:33.000It's like, do you think somebody should be able to just come into this country on vacation and have a kid, and that kid is now a citizen of this country?
00:12:41.000Feel like most normal people would be like, Well, that doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense.
00:12:46.000But when you're politically brained, it's like people have to get into the semantics of these arguments when it feels like the Supreme Court ruled against the very, very obvious answer.
00:14:03.000I don't know that I agree with the owning land thing anymore because, like, what if you own a $5 million condo and it's like owning a condo is not the land?
00:14:12.000You have a right to the condo, but you pay the condo board or the condo folks.
00:14:15.000We should have been smarter and bought land.
00:14:17.000I mean, if you could afford a $5 million condo, you can afford a few acres of land.
00:14:23.000I mean, maybe, but in like New York, it can be like, let's put it this way.
00:14:28.000Let's say you own a $400,000 condo, $400,000 condo in New York, and you have a mortgage on it, and you pay $3,400 per month on your mortgage.
00:14:39.000You could sell your property and then buy a parcel, but you're not going to do that.
00:14:42.000And then you can't vote because you own property.
00:14:47.000I think it would be better if maybe it's not.
00:14:49.000How about you have to have a net worth of $1 million?
00:15:25.000We've got a 10,000 square foot mansion in Western Maryland that.
00:15:30.000The value of it is like 1.8 million or whatever.
00:15:33.000That same building near DC is a $5 million building.
00:15:36.000So you're going to get tons of liberals with higher net worth without the buying power just because they live in these cities.
00:15:42.000I mean, some type of test that would determine whether you're smart enough and also if you're capable of making decisions that aren't based purely out of emotion and empathy.
00:15:50.000This is why I think signing up for the draft is the best way to do it.
00:15:55.000If you want to vote, male or female, you don't have to, it's optional.
00:16:11.000It'll be two to one for the rest of this country's history.
00:16:13.000I mean, I think a lot of them would probably take the gamble on the draft not voting back.
00:16:17.000I guarantee if you go to any one of these lefty protests and say, How many of you would be willing to sign up for selective service so that you could vote?
00:16:29.000They'd be like, No, that's oppressive.
00:18:10.000Yeah, that's well, that is completely fake.
00:18:13.000So, what you mentioned earlier, it's kind of sad when you're talking about the people that will choose not to vote just because they don't want to serve.
00:18:22.000When it used to be kind of like an aspect of our culture that it was considered to be an honor to serve your country, or at least we had a culture around America that loved the nation so much.
00:18:33.000You have a house with 10 people in it, and a fire starts, and the people who live in that house are all like, What do we need to do to put the fire out?
00:18:41.000And then over the course of four years, your stoner.
00:18:44.000Hippie dippy DMT roommate who thinks he can control the rain invites his buddies into the house, and when the fire starts, they're like, I ain't doing nothing about that fire.
00:18:53.000Yeah, and now you got a bunch of people who won't do anything, and they're the ones who started the fire in the first place.
00:18:58.000Yeah, and then it and then and then and then you know what happens?
00:19:02.000The funniest thing is the fire starts, and so you're like, at least make it rain, and he's like, I'm trying, and then nothing happens.
00:19:07.000And you're like, I only brought it up because we watched the run hide fight trailer earlier, and I was like, you know what?
00:19:12.000This country used to have fantastic neoliberal war propaganda, like, we were really good.
00:19:18.000At promoting, you know, let's get involved in the Middle East, let's do all this stuff, and we just don't have that anymore.
00:19:24.000And that's you know, that's what we lost.
00:19:25.000We lost dollar cheeseburgers, we lost all night Walmarts, and we lost great war propaganda.
00:19:30.000And that's why nobody wants to sign up for venture service.
00:22:46.000Before everybody started getting on the whole spiel about the old school Pizza Huts, I followed a Substack that located all of them in America.
00:22:55.000And me and my wife went to one on the way home from a trip to Minnesota.
00:23:48.000In a goodwill over in Maryland, and I saw the red cups.
00:23:51.000They had a whole set of them, and I grabbed them and I just forgot to buy them.
00:23:55.000Like, I didn't pick them up and bring them with me.
00:23:57.000I was like, oh, we got to bring these.
00:23:58.000I was going to bring them here and put them on the tables, and completely forgot they were gone the next time we went.
00:24:02.000All right, here's what we need we need somebody who can run the development, and then we need investors because we're going to need like several million dollars for this project.
00:24:13.000I bet I could go to some ultra wealth people I know, and they'd be like, yes, I'll commit money to this.
00:24:17.000Problem is, who's going to actually do the day to day operations?
00:24:19.000That's hard to find because you need a high level person for that.
00:24:25.000But considering their TikTok accounts with like 10 million followers, and all they do is post fake, it's the 90s again videos, and they get millions of views.
00:24:34.000Bro, I guarantee you this place would be sold out every single day.
00:25:15.000I mean, remember, because even if you're like, no, no, I have a house and I treat, but the cell phones are still there and the flat screen TVs are still there.
00:25:23.000I'm talking the old box TVs, back projection.
00:25:27.000You look out the windows and the windows, it's going to be the neighborhood.
00:25:30.000With snow falling everywhere, it was a better time economically because Kevin McAllister's dad could buy 20 large pizzas and fly everybody and his family to France, anyways.
00:26:03.000Donald Trump was pointing out that when they passed the CHIPS Act, they were offering grants to companies so long as they had a certain number of trans individuals at the highest level of the company.
00:26:17.000This post was on the top of Reddit, and all of the comments are from default libs who don't know anything.
00:26:25.000And so I look at this stuff and I'm like, how do you swim against a riptide?
00:26:30.000When you've got evil people that can snap their fingers and put up fake content like this, And those people who are not interested in politics are never going to watch the show for the fact check.
00:26:42.000Let me play the clip for you so you can hear for yourself.
00:26:45.000The car plants, the AI plants are all coming back.
00:26:48.000If they don't, they have to pay taxes.
00:26:49.000The chips, we had this ridiculous CHIPS Act where you give billions of dollars to a company and they didn't even know what the hell to do with it.
00:27:55.000This was intentionally clipped and posted to, it's similar to what we call information vaccination.
00:28:01.000Now there's going to be a bunch of libs who don't understand what they're hearing and don't know what DEI is, and they're going to go around being like, Trump was talking about transistors and said transgender because he couldn't read, and then he just goes off like some maniac.
00:28:16.000And then you won't be able to explain to them why they're wrong because their mind.
00:28:49.000So they will maintain those lies and they'll roll with it.
00:28:53.000And that's just the politically active side of it.
00:28:55.000X is worse now because of the monetization on the platform where people just put fake quotes on videos that they know people won't watch because they know that whatever they're saying, even if it's not accurate or even close to what was said in the video, nobody's going to check.
00:29:26.000I mean, do you guys remember that CNN video that was clipped during January 6th to make it look like he encouraged people to go out and attack?
00:30:07.000Yeah, look, the narrative that's spun by the left is essentially always Trump bad.
00:30:14.000And however they can adjust the video, they're going to do it.
00:30:20.000It's really hard to convince people that the media does this.
00:30:28.000Because this is a quote from Michael Malice.
00:30:31.000He says, When you try to convince a normal person that isn't really plugged into politics that the media lies, the reaction you get is as if you told them that the weather, the meteorologist, the weatherman, he's lying.
00:31:01.000What's the response to somebody who says that to you then?
00:31:04.000So, say you're talking to somebody, they're not politically initiated, they don't really understand that there's a reason for it.
00:31:09.000You could give them a bunch of information about, like, look, these are the political leanings of the editors and all of these newsrooms and all of this stuff, and how much money can be made through lies and politics.
00:31:20.000But what's the basic answer you give to somebody who asks that question?
00:31:24.000So, the best thing to do is what Tim did when I forget the gentleman's name that was here last week to show them a video.
00:31:47.000I think that's going to become less functional because of AI videos and people that are, you know, people are going to be like, that's not real or you're showing me something else.
00:31:54.000Because that was Jason's first response.
00:31:55.000We showed him a video of an articulating tractor with forks on the front lifting.
00:32:02.000The razor wire and fence so people could wade across the Rio Grande and come into the country.
00:32:55.000I totally agree with you, but it's worth pointing out the people in this particular context, in this scenario, don't have a strong political leaning.
00:33:04.000Look, if someone put on a pussy hat and was at the The rally for women or whatever doesn't matter what you show them.
00:33:11.000They're just going to say, You're lying because you're on the right.
00:33:14.000The tribalism in this country is very strong.
00:33:18.000But the very few people that you could sway one way or the other, people that don't pay much attention but are actually interested, you have to have a good amount of evidence to prove to them because it does sound ridiculous like the news is lying to you.
00:33:47.000You're essentially, you mentioned mid-decade, and this is also confusing for folks who don't obsess about politics, but you're supposed to adjust district boundaries at the beginning of every decade after we get a census.
00:34:00.000Because population changes and you want to adjust the districts, right?
00:34:03.000If you've got a place that's growing rapidly or a place that's declining, you've got to adjust.
00:34:07.000So everybody is one vote, one person, one vote.
00:34:10.000But what they're doing in Texas is they are redrawing the lines in the middle of the decade, which is unprecedented.
00:34:17.000Changing the rules after halftime because you're worried the other team's going to win the game.
00:34:27.000So what happened is that in 2021, when Texas attempted to redistrict, the Biden DOJ blocked them from doing so under the VRA.
00:34:34.000The lawsuit persisted until Donald Trump entered office in 2025.
00:34:39.000When Donald Trump entered office, he ordered the DOJ to drop that lawsuit, which allowed Texas to finalize their redistricting they had already been trying to do for five years.
00:35:24.000The Democrats are right about everything.
00:35:26.000We need a dictator just to tell everybody they're going to get whatever they want because they're not smart enough to use Google anyway, and then just put an authoritarian in charge.
00:35:34.000I mean, ironically, he's just describing exactly what happened in California, where they outright said that they were redistricting to essentially cheat or blaming Trump, fight back.
00:36:23.000This is what motivates, like, You know, when I look at like Hassan, and he's, and he's, he was, I watched that video on Laura Ingram earlier where he's handed a little red book.
00:37:32.000But can you explain to them why people in the media they've trusted for decades, you know, explicitly, because, you know, you trust the guy wearing the suit on the television, explain to them why they would lie about something like that?
00:37:45.000Because everyone has an opinion and everyone has some kind of framework with which they look at the world, right?
00:37:52.000And people that are in the media largely have a framework that boils down to some kind of oppression dynamic, right?
00:38:00.000People that are in a position of authority are somehow oppressing the people that are not in positions of authority, whether that be people that are wealthy or oppressing poor people or people that are, you know, that's kind of the dynamic.
00:38:12.000You look at it, you can see it with feminism.
00:38:14.000Women look at men as, feminists look at men as oppressing women.
00:38:19.000Do that, and then they'll say, Well, okay, I can understand that, or I can see that.
00:38:24.000Avoid using, especially if you're talking to someone that's totally uninitiated, avoid saying things like, Well, it's just Marxism, right?
00:38:34.000Like an oppression dynamic that's something that's very much a leftist frame of reference.
00:38:39.000It's a Marxist power dynamic that you're talking about.
00:38:42.000But avoid those kind of words because those kind of buzzwords make people zone out.
00:38:46.000Feels like it all started at the Frankfurt School.
00:38:49.000It actually all started with the French Revolution.
00:38:53.000Everyone thinks that there's a lot of people that are going to be like, oh, it's the Jews, but it wasn't the Jews, it was the French.
00:38:59.000But yeah, I would say, look, and so the people that are in positions like in the media, they look at themselves as in a position of authority and they feel it's their duty to help people that are in the underclass or tell people the way that they should look at the world.
00:39:28.000If we scroll down a little bit, this person says Reddit man says, six hours ago, they tried to change the lines after the 2020 census, but the Biden admin blocked them.
00:39:38.000So when Trump was elected, they stopped blocking Texas from redistricting.
00:39:41.000So they went ahead with their redistricting that was based off the 2020 census.
00:39:44.000It's definitely not cheating in Texas, it's still less gerrymandered than Illinois or California.
00:40:32.000And here you go, my friends, from the DOJ archives, December 6, 2021, DOJ files a lawsuit against the state of Texas to challenge statewide redistricting plans.
00:40:46.000What do you do when half the people in this country are just evil liars?
00:40:52.000I gotta clarify the leaders on the left are evil liars.
00:40:57.000And people like Charlemagne are too stupid to call out James Tellerico and do a Google search.
00:41:02.000Well, you know what the funny part is, too?
00:41:03.000Texas redistricting was stopped in courts because they were saying the left was saying that they were diluting the black and the Latino vote.
00:41:12.000But when you go to California, California was redistricted in order to put the black and Latino vote together and in favor of Democrats.
00:41:20.000So when it's Democrats and the left doing it, it's absolutely okay.
00:41:24.000And we're seeing this happen in real time at the exact same time.
00:41:28.000So it's about partisan politics, it's not about what's right or wrong.
00:41:32.000Yeah, I mean, look, everything nowadays is partisan politics.
00:41:36.000Like, we that because of how polarized we are.
00:41:59.000The people that are in, specifically the Democrats, I personally think the Democrats are more likely to do this because it's not that Republicans won't be abused of the power, won't do things that are wrong, but.
00:42:13.000Republicans are still holding on to the fact that this is the right way to do things.
00:42:16.000You look at the way that Dobbs got turned over, Roe versus Wade, right?
00:42:25.000They didn't say, let's try to figure out workarounds.
00:42:28.000They didn't say, let's change the playing field.
00:42:32.000They said, we're going to work on this and we're going to get people elected, get a court, and then we're going to get a court that will be favorable, and then we're going to bring something to the court.
00:42:44.000Democrats now they see Trump doing things that they don't like, and they're talking about they're going to get rid of the filibuster, they're going to get rid of the electoral college, pack the Supreme Court.
00:42:55.000The far left is saying we need to get rid of the Senate, we need to get rid of the presidency, we need to, you know, do all kinds of things to change the existing structures because they don't like the results that they're getting with the existing structures,
00:43:12.000So, Republicans, yes, of course, they'll do things that people are going to say are bad, and I'm not saying that they're Innocent, they're not perfect, but the right and the left just operate entirely differently.
00:43:24.000The right does look at things, I mean, you still hear people on the right saying, you know, the we can't do that because it's not good, you know, it's unconstitutional or what have you.
00:43:32.000People on the left are like, change the F in the constitution.
00:43:34.000Problem that we have in California so the mail in ballots, Republicans refused to have as prior to this, uh, the last primary, they had refused to take advantage of the mail in ballots because they believe it to be wrong, but it's legal in California and so is the way that they collect ballots.
00:43:50.000But they don't want to play the game because they just want to take the moral high ground.
00:43:53.000But what has that gotten us in California?
00:43:58.000And the left will do to the United States what they have done in California, which is basically install us you change the law so that way the Democrats always win.
00:44:11.000The chances of a Republican winning in California are incredibly low.
00:44:22.000And Spencer Pratt's put out videos explaining this, but like the Republicans are not willing to exercise power the way that Democrats are willing to exercise power.
00:44:32.000And I forget who said it, but Tim brings it up a lot.
00:45:11.000The House is a thin margin, the Senate's a thin margin.
00:45:14.000All the things that people say we want to see, you know, rammed through, it would never happen.
00:45:19.000But you look at the last time the Democrats had a supermajority and they shoved through Obamacare.
00:45:24.000None of the things that the Democrats said that were going to happen because of Obamacare have materialized, and people are still saying, you know, I can't afford health care, health care in our system here.
00:45:34.000Obamacare was supposed to fix all that.
00:45:42.000And there are some people that didn't have health care who do now, but there are some people that had health care that don't anymore or can't afford it anymore.
00:45:51.000And your wait times are significantly longer now.
00:45:53.000I mean, trying to get a primary, it's going to be six to eight months before you can see a primary.
00:45:58.000And that was a major shot at the middle class, anyways, because they're the ones who had the insurance premiums that ended up doubling or tripling.
00:46:04.000Yeah, I had health insurance at the time I was married, and I had health insurance through my wife's company, and they changed it, and I didn't have health insurance after that.
00:46:12.000You know, so because they're like, oh, you can't do it with the family members of this.
00:46:16.000So the way that Democrats behave is about getting achieving the goal that they want, and they will go around the system, they will lie, they will cheat to get there.
00:46:29.000And Republican, there are Republicans that will lie and they will tell you stories, but they don't approach power the same way that Democrats approach power.
00:46:39.000But I mean, as a whole, we're not seeing this propaganda from the right.
00:46:43.000We're not even seeing a really good, like, media response from the right to a lot of the leftist propaganda that we're seeing.
00:46:55.000We were just talking about that in California.
00:46:57.000Maybe it's in my state that this is happening.
00:47:00.000But every time I would turn on the radio and I was listening to the radio just because I wanted to see what ads were on the radio, what I would hear was in Spanish and in English nonstop every five minutes hey, every two minutes actually was vote yes on Prop 50, stick it.
00:47:15.000Not once on the radio in Spanish did I hear anything that was informing people of why they shouldn't vote for Prop 50.
00:47:22.000When I was on the radio in English, I heard it not even a fraction, like one tenth of the time that I would hear the propaganda from the left.
00:47:32.000Well, it wasn't really informative or catchy.
00:47:34.000So there really is no real fight against the lies that the left is spreading, not on mainstream media, not the way that the left has, I would say, monopolized social media.
00:47:45.000You know what I just would just this reminded me of?
00:47:47.000I feel like you guys, what was that commercial, the Polaner Allfruit?
00:48:02.000And they pass it, and then some guy's like, Please pass the Polaner Allfruit.
00:48:05.000And then some guy goes, Will someone pass the jelly?
00:48:08.000And they all like faint, and I'm like, Republicans are the old lady freaking out and fanning herself because someone said the wrong word, and the left is the guy yelling for jelly.
00:48:15.000What I mean by this is, The left is unabashed.
00:48:35.000Nothing's going to stand in their way.
00:48:41.000And the right is a lady going, oh, We have legislation being passed that would allow the politicians to use taxpayer funds to run their campaigns.
00:48:59.000This is the end of elections because we all know that whoever.
00:49:02.000So you could use like the taxpayer money of somebody who wouldn't vote for you to run your own campaign.
00:49:08.000Yeah, meaning that the government will be electing, if that passes and if it gets through the assembly and the senate, if that passes and the government will be electing itself, the people will now have lost their voice.
00:50:17.000And there's plenty of history and evidence of that fact.
00:50:21.000So, I mean, this is part of the reason why you get so many people on the right nowadays that are calling for like some kind of authoritarian in the office of the White House.
00:50:30.000This is why people looked at Donald Trump and they're like, he's not doing enough.
00:51:00.000And if you look at, like, if you look at authoritarians on the right and to the left historically, like someone like Pinochet or someone like Franco, like, those countries, like, those guys left office.
00:51:15.000Without the whole country being destroyed, you look at communists or socialists and they're either murdered by the people or, like, I think the Soviet Union completely fell apart as an entity.
00:51:31.000They don't generally leave power peaceably, you know?
00:51:36.000And people are criticizing Niall Bukele right now because he just extended the length of what he can be president.
00:51:43.000I think it might be the smartest move just because, in a country like that, He took down criminal organizations.
00:51:49.000The moment that somebody else takes over, you don't know the corruption or the extent of the corruption of the other politicians or people there.
00:51:59.000So there's a really good chance that the state would, the country would regress to what it had been before.
00:52:05.000The only way to keep it safe, the only way to keep it progressing would be under the same person with the same strong hand.
00:52:10.000Other than that, you're risking losing everything that you've worked for.
00:52:54.000But most of America looks at Lincoln and says, you know, Lincoln was one of our greatest presidents.
00:52:59.000If you articulate the argument, we need someone like Pinochet, we need another Franco, people automatically think that guy was a fascist, that guy was bad.
00:53:10.000Because the word fascist in the United States is completely and totally associated with negativity.
00:53:18.000Lincoln also means like vastly different things to different groups.
00:53:21.000Well, that's the point I'm getting to.
00:53:24.000But most of the people that most Americans nowadays, when they think, if you take polls, right, Lincoln's consistently in the top three, right?
00:53:34.000So if you say, we need another Lincoln, people don't think you're talking about a tyrant.
00:53:40.000No, they think you're talking about the guy who freed the slaves.
00:54:23.000The people that want something for free, you need to talk to them in a way that they, With the way that they understand, you have to meet people where they are.
00:54:31.000So, going around America and saying, Oh, we need a Pinochet, we need a Franco because they knew how to take care of communists, that's not going to play.
00:54:39.000And you're giving the left the most valuable weapon that you possibly could.
00:54:44.000You're saying that you want a fascist.
00:54:46.000But if you say, We need a Lincoln, we need someone that is willing to do what's necessary to save the United States, you listen to the things that the DSA is talking about.
00:54:55.000They're talking about getting rid of the Constitution, they're talking about getting rid of this, getting rid of that.
00:55:00.000That is going to save this country, someone like Lincoln that has the courage to stand up and save the country the way that Abraham Lincoln did.
00:55:09.000But the argument is far more appealing to the average person.
00:55:13.000And it doesn't automatically make them say, no, you're talking about fascism.
00:55:16.000Even though Lincoln threw journalists in jail, even though Lincoln suspended habeas corpus, even though Lincoln literally had an army go into the southern states and say, no, you're not going to leave.
00:55:43.000And I don't really care what their opinions are on politics.
00:55:48.000And he made a post about, you know, he rewatched the Lincoln movie.
00:55:53.000And he's like, it really brings us back to a time when we had strong leaders in America.
00:55:59.000And all I could think about was, like, I can think of people on both sides of the aisle that would agree with you for vastly different reasons.
00:56:05.000And the sad thing is, is most people just aren't having that nuanced of a discussion.
00:56:24.000And then the burrito prices will come down, Dan Crenshaw can.
00:56:27.000Look, you can convince people that deportations are a good idea when you tell them, look, once you show them the evidence that, like, hey, you know, rentals and home prices are up 20 to 30% because of immigration.
00:56:39.000The reason that you can't Find a job is because there are illegal immigrants here that companies are putting in those positions.
00:56:47.000Chilling Ring Video Wild Eyed Boy, 15, dressed as clown, went door to door in Chilling Ring Video before allegedly murdering elderly neighbor.
00:57:45.000He was identified and found in a home.
00:57:47.000Illinois State Police said video footage of the suspect dressed in a clown costume had been circulating and that they are working to collect all relevant video.
00:58:08.000Not saying that it's not important, but I kind of had the same feeling the other day when people were watching the Perez Hilton video, which is like mental illness and drug addiction and bad reactions to medications happen all the time.
00:58:22.000And I feel like as a society, we feel the need to give meaning to something where sometimes it's just a tragic situation.
00:58:43.000And that can be attained through, like, I don't know, let's say the magnetosphere weakens as the poles flip, knocking out our entire electrical grid for a couple of years.
00:58:55.000I mean, that would just kill everybody.
00:58:56.000I'm saying, like, if the magnetosphere, if the poles flip and the magnetosphere dissipates briefly as the flip's happening, Then solar radiation fries all of our electronics, sending us back to the 1800s.
01:00:17.000I just mean like stunts like that, where, and especially with the younger generations where they don't have real problems, so they create their own problems, which is why we see so much depression in the younger generations, because they just have nothing to live for because they don't have the uniform.
01:00:29.000I'm just saying if the power went out, like all electronics stopped working for even a couple of months, it would be a cleansing purge of the earth.
01:00:37.000Oh, yes, probably wouldn't happen without that.
01:00:39.000You probably get like 3 billion deaths in like a week.
01:00:41.000Find if you can, there's a show called Revolution where basically the All the power in the United States is just all goes out at once and everybody has to learn how to survive.
01:02:02.000But like in India, there was that case where the like there were some young girls on the bus, and then guys, like every guy on the bus, just decided to mutilate and rape and murder the women.
01:02:11.000And like it was so bad earmuffs for the families.
01:02:15.000They they snapped like a bar off the bus handle and jammed it into the woman and like killed her and disemboweled her.
01:02:23.000Like that's that happens in India, yeah, things like that.
01:02:26.000And we get murderers and we get stuff like this too.
01:02:28.000I'm just saying, like, across the board.
01:02:34.000I'm just saying it's always going to be a different kind of problem, I guess.
01:02:36.000In excess, we get weird stuff like this.
01:02:39.000It's just because we have ring cameras.
01:02:40.000I was just like, literally, a lot of it is like, if you look at the problems of the world throughout history, just imagine what it would have looked like if at that time in history, X was around and you could follow the news of what's going on.
01:02:52.000Like, Billy the Kid is just live streaming himself, shooting people.
01:02:56.000There's an account on X that it's like set in the past and he.
01:03:00.000Updates it as if it's happening in real time.
01:03:21.000But that's another side effect of what you're talking about here.
01:03:23.000We have it so good in society that we can go on creative arts projects where we make videos from the future.
01:03:29.000Like, yes, we have insane 15 year olds who.
01:03:33.000Do creepy shit and kill old ladies, and that's awful.
01:03:36.000But the technology and the abundance that we have has also allowed us to do other things.
01:03:41.000So it's really a matter of where you fall on the line.
01:03:43.000Yes, 200 years ago, you could stub your toe and die, but it's a losing argument for Dan Crenshaw because no politician should be saying, suck it up and deal with it.
01:03:52.000It's different if it's different generations having that.
01:03:54.000That's the annoying thing with the burrito debate.
01:03:56.000You know, Ben Shapiro is like, stop eating fancy burritos.
01:04:00.000And it is true that you can get a burrito Taco Bell for literally like Three bucks.
01:04:11.000That's why I think Democrats just lie about everything because it's just the Democrat voters are really dumb.
01:04:16.000So when you go to them and say, vote for me and I'm going to tax the rich to give you a raise, like it literally makes, you know, in the interview I did with Julie from All Sides, I definitely recommend you guys check it out, The Tim Pool Show.
01:04:31.000I was like, if a politician, I said, if Elizabeth Warren says she wants to tax Elon Musk, To fund healthcare, that's not legally possible.
01:05:21.000But you think a lot of stories like this, it's just because you spend all day looking at the news that it can kind of color your worldview in a way where the average person who's not looking at the news all day long, they don't have that same sort of double edged sword.
01:05:47.000And you can go to them and say, well, maybe you touched too much grass and you should have paid attention to what was going on because it's a war.
01:05:54.000You know, and these things matter, and there are primaries, and communists are winning in certain areas.
01:06:00.000At the very least, every time something happens with Iran, you know when to go fill up your gas tank before the gas starts to spike back up again, if you're paying attention.
01:06:12.000When you go out into the real world, you'll find that most people are not as knowledgeable about all of these things.
01:06:17.000And then when you come online, you'd find that everybody talking is super high strung and following everything, and half of them are wrong.
01:06:26.000But if you only are just touching grass, then you're out of the loop.
01:06:30.000And then one day, you're going to come home and you're going to find that your power is off.
01:06:34.000And you're like, why is the electricity off?
01:06:36.000And then your neighbor, who wasn't touching grass, is going to have, you know, 50 years worth of beans in his basement and a bunch of guns.
01:06:46.000Like, for me, when it comes to doing this show, I pay as close attention to politics as I can put up with that deals with also.
01:06:56.000My work, but in general, I try to find some type of middle ground to keep myself mentally sane and stable because all politics all the time is too depressing.
01:07:05.000This is a personal anecdote, but something like this, similar to this, did happen in my neighborhood.
01:08:11.000If it was like, I was just reading an interview, like an old interview.
01:08:13.000I think it was Christian Bale, somebody can correct me if I'm wrong.
01:08:15.000He was saying, like, it was so different when he moved to America and California because he'd like just go to his friends' houses and like walk in and be like, hey, you want to hang out?
01:08:23.000They're like, you got a call, bro, before you come over.
01:08:26.000They're like, you need to give me 30 minutes and you got a call beforehand.
01:08:30.000I don't know my neighbors and they don't know me and I've lived there.
01:08:38.000And down like the place that Sarah and I have down here, like we know some of our neighbors and stuff.
01:08:43.000And it's a you know, it's like a townhouse, so there's we have neighbors and stuff.
01:08:48.000New Hampshire, I'm so far in the woods, people don't just come to my house.
01:08:52.000We know our name, like I mean, we so our landlord who lives below us, we obviously we know her, we're close with her, and then we have uh, literally neighborhood cats that all have names that just hang out in the neighborhood, so we know they're the people that own them because they belong to a family.
01:09:49.000He just wanted the bird seed that one of my tenants put up, and you know, that's fine.
01:09:54.000AI is actually going to be the death of like the good bear videos.
01:09:56.000Like, have you ever seen that one where the bear goes in the store and steals the candy and leaves?
01:10:00.000Again, nobody's going to believe that in the next couple of years.
01:10:03.000They're just going to think it's fake.
01:10:04.000I mean, people that have had experience with bears will believe that because bears are wildly crafty animals.
01:10:11.000When we were in Florida doing a record, and this is like way back in 2008, we were, it was nighttime.
01:10:17.000Our bass player, who at the time was this short little tiny girl, she's like, Five foot, she's out walking around in the driveway on the phone talking to someone back home.
01:10:25.000And uh, we all wrapped up what we were doing inside and we hop in the hop in the we're like, okay, time to go.
01:10:31.000We hop in the car guy, uh, the guy giving us a ride back to the hotel backs out.
01:10:35.000And as soon as the car turns, there's this black bear, maybe 20 yards from where Jeannie was walking around, just sitting there chowing on garbage.
01:10:45.000And we're like, yo, we call the producer, we're like, Jason, what's up with this bear in your yard?
01:17:03.000I mean, yeah, you're messing with your.
01:17:04.000Could you imagine, like, going, like, these women who are all about body positivity?
01:17:08.000They were like, you could be healthy at every size, and I'm beautiful.
01:17:12.000And the doctor goes, Well, I have a drug that could potentially blind you, make you vomit up rotting food because your stomach can't digest it, but you will get skinny.
01:18:29.000Food noise, where it's like, okay, you went through your regular day, you ate dinner, but afterwards, these people can't vote.
01:18:35.000You need to still want something to eat.
01:18:37.000If you've ever taken Ozempic for weight loss, you can't vote anymore.
01:18:39.000Well, because it slows down your digestive system.
01:18:42.000So, yeah, you basically, you what you it would take like an entire probably day for to digest what would normally take a few hours.
01:18:51.000I was telling Phil before the show today that we got like comments on videos asking, like, if I was on Ozempic, I'm like, bro, sometimes if I get, if we're getting home late and it's like after 9 p.m., I will have my wife drop me off a mile from home to get in the cardio that I need before the end of the day.
01:19:21.000If you, if you, for a little, uh, Not really a cheat, but a little bit of information for people that are looking to do some cardio.
01:19:29.000If you're in the gym and you do a treadmill, get above 12 degrees, over three miles an hour, it's the same calorie burn that a stair stepper does.
01:19:40.000And it's not as miserable as the stair stepper because the stair stepper is miserable.
01:20:35.000I was pretty happy when they, when uh, spoiler alert for everybody out there, uh, I was pretty happy when they finally killed off Brody.
01:20:42.000I was not a fan of the character at all.
01:20:44.000I mean, I like the early seasons more than the later seasons of that show.
01:20:48.000I think I'm only on season like they just killed Brody, like a couple episodes ago, so it's new.
01:20:52.000Three or four, then uh, probably four, yeah.
01:20:56.000But, um, but if I have a series that I'm interested in watching, it's easier to do cardio because you kind of get lost in that, you're not thinking about doing the cardio.
01:21:03.000If you're listening to a podcast and it's bad, my mom tends to wander or whatever, you know, and then it's just background noise, which is pointless.
01:21:09.000And all of that is better than taking Ozempic.
01:21:11.000It is much better than taking Ozempic.
01:21:43.000It's literally destroying people's desire to be productive in life because the part of your brain that feels like it's okay, I don't need to eat, also means it's okay, I don't need to do anything else.
01:22:23.000Like, so you have to increase your protein intake, and it's good to go to the gym because that helps you retain muscle.
01:22:30.000And as you get older, like retaining muscle becomes more and more important because your muscles do deteriorate.
01:22:36.000If you go to the gym regularly and lift weights, like do actual weight lifting, that, especially as you get older, it's a really important thing for just overall health.
01:23:11.000Like when there are people who are morbidly obese shopping at Torrid, Who are going to tell you to your face that you can be healthy at every size and fat is beautiful.
01:23:22.000And then when a doctor says, here's a drug that might make you go blind and paralyze your stomach, but it'll make you skinny, and they grab it and jam it in their leg first thing.
01:23:30.000What do you think a politician is going to say?
01:23:32.000You can have the hard mode Republicans saying, listen, you need to just be responsible, have willpower, work hard.
01:23:42.000And the Democrats are going to be like, nah, take the drug, we'll make it easy for you, and we'll steal his money to give to you.
01:25:13.000And it's the worst part about that is like when you take the medication shortcut, it doesn't stick because you haven't built up the discipline to actually keep it up.
01:25:23.000Like when you take the, if someone says, Oh, I'm going to give you all this stuff, you know, you're giving over the responsibility for yourself to someone else.
01:25:32.000Like anything the government gives has got strings attached.
01:25:35.000I mean, that was how I felt when Elon Musk talked about like, we're going to eventually, we're not going to need money.
01:25:41.000And the government's just going to provide everybody money.
01:25:58.000I don't know what is going to be the situation in the future when it comes to how society organizes itself when it comes to the involvement of robotics, right?
01:26:52.000So it's almost the same thing as a human hand.
01:26:55.000And once they actually have a robot that's as capable as the human being, then you're going to start seeing a lot of adoption, at least in businesses, because you get this thing for $30,000.
01:27:06.000That's less than you're, even if it's $50,000, it's less than you're going to pay someone.
01:27:18.000Comp, yeah, no loss, no health insurance, no payroll taxes, no nothing.
01:27:23.000So, there's gonna be all these robots that are gonna replace a lot of workers.
01:27:26.000How do you provide for society, for people in society that don't do the jobs that are necessary to be, you know, that have to be done anymore when you've got companies that are basically making money hand over fist, right?
01:27:41.000They have their costs go to, you know, a tenth of what their costs were before, could because you're talking about, again, robot cost you 50 grand and it's got a five year life.
01:27:52.000$50,000 for one person, that means $10,000 a year for one unit that does the work of two people.
01:28:00.000So you're going from $160,000 or $150,000 a year for some kind of technical job, not talking about stuff that's like white collar jobs because AI agents are going to do all that.
01:28:12.000But you're talking about physical work in the real world.
01:28:15.000You're going down to $70,000, you're going from $150,000 down to $10,000 a year.
01:28:22.000I mean, the cost savings, the productivity.
01:28:25.000In theory, it can go through the roof.
01:28:27.000So, how do you make sure that there isn't this massive gap between the people that own things and the people that don't?
01:28:35.000You tell you have Elon Musk say to the people who want the AI universal basic income, Don't worry, we're going to create robots that also sit around and do shitty art.
01:28:44.000So, you're not going to be able to do that either.
01:28:46.000You're going to have to find something to do.
01:29:35.000Like they use the same three or four fonts for most of it.
01:29:37.000And it's all kind of in the same realm.
01:29:39.000Like it's good if you want to upscale images and you want to add some, you know, some elements to like an individual picture or something like that.
01:29:48.000But it's not good for whole creative design.
01:30:37.000I want you to imagine two and a half hours of this.
01:30:40.000A guy walks out of his front door, looks around at his grass.
01:30:46.000About five minutes of him looking left and right.
01:30:48.000Then he gets in his car and leaves, but you don't follow him.
01:30:51.000The camera stays on the grass for about 30 minutes.
01:30:55.000You hear the car come back, and the guy gets out, and he's got some spray fertilizer attached to his hose, and he sprays his lawn down for the next 15, 20 minutes.
01:31:04.000Then he goes inside, and there's another hour of the camera pointed at the grass.
01:31:08.000That has more story than disclosure day did.
01:31:11.000Maybe Steven Spielberg just fell asleep while he was making it.
01:31:14.000What happened was Spielberg said, Hey, look, everyone's talking about aliens.
01:31:17.000Let's do a movie where all of the news confirms aliens exist.
01:31:22.000And they're like, Okay, that'll be epic.
01:32:03.000And then finally, like at the end, for literally no reason, out of nowhere, she's like, we're going to go and tell everyone aliens are real.
01:33:29.000Then when this other guy, he like drops it, and the guy picks it up, he disappears, and then it like reappears, and you're like, Okay, I guess.
01:36:53.000The Punisher is the Punisher because his mind is substantially more focused on this than a regular person.
01:36:59.000Basically, if you're supposed to keep him, if he's technically supposed to be the same canon as the Netflix version of his character, he literally wills himself back to life.
01:37:09.000And not only that, but they say in Netflix that he's got brain damage.
01:37:17.000I mean, that's like, if you're getting nitpicky with it, the question is like, they're like, why did nobody try to arrest him at the hospital when he's a fugitive?
01:37:23.000Well, to be fair, that's a half point because with the Netflix series, Kingpin's Vigilante Thing, Was so poorly received with the Daredevil.
01:37:34.000One could deus ex machina, the people have backed off from the vigilante enforcement because of how bad, like, there's a backlash basically.
01:38:37.000I was like, the reason why people, I think it's interesting that a lot of people don't have issues with the way that her character was handled at the end, consequences wise.
01:38:44.000A lot of people believe that she should have been arrested, or at the very least, she should have turned herself in as a form of trying to make good on, start righting the wrongs that she's done.
01:38:54.000And then at that point, you get, maybe you have Professor X come in and say, I have a better way to help you atone for your sins.
01:39:59.000What's supposed to happen is when Jean Grey tries mind controlling Punisher, so for those, I mean, we're in spoiler territory.
01:40:07.000So for those that have seen it, for those that haven't, I already warned you.
01:40:11.000But when she first tries going into Spider Man's mind, she briefly sees him with Aunt May before getting pushed out of his mind because Spider Sense is a psychic defense.
01:40:20.000Spider Sense constantly alerts Peter to threats and danger, which makes it almost impossible to mind control him because his mind keeps shocking him out of it.
01:40:30.000Punisher is immune to mind control, not completely, because he has gone insane over the loss of his family in a way that no regular human in existence would.
01:40:40.000That's what makes him a comic book character.
01:40:42.000So, what should have happened is when she jumped into his mind to mind control him, she should have seen him standing there covered in blood holding his dead child.
01:41:52.000For going with nitpicks, I want to know how a guy who lives on a boat with, like, no, he's not really part of the general public, who's doing his fade, like, Every two weeks.
01:42:03.000He's got like the Jersey Shore flat top with a fade.
01:42:07.000He looks like the dude from Jersey Shore.
01:45:32.000I mean, it's also like, look, if you watch the original season two of Daredevil, uh, when he's at his family's grave and he's explaining coming home from war, that's it's a totally different thing.
01:45:42.000It's like that is actual cinema in a different sense, right?
01:45:46.000That's one of those first early examples of people being like, okay, comic book characters can be more than just Batman and more than just Superman.
01:45:55.000There are other layered stories to tell that are more akin to just great dramatic storytelling.
01:47:01.000Brutie Gambit says Wait, if this EO says to end birthright citizenship to people associated with foreign terror organizations, would that apply to Antifa?
01:47:07.000Wasn't that label a foreign terrorist organization?
01:47:21.000Disgruntled says According to liberal logic, if foreigners are subject to the laws of the United States, does that mean the Second Amendment applies to the Chinese and British citizens too?
01:47:43.000It's SBRs, SBSs, any other weapon and suppressors.
01:47:46.000So it's the large, it's the majority of the stuff that the NFA covers.
01:47:50.000It doesn't actually do anything about destructive devices or machine guns.
01:47:55.000So destructive devices, you can own a hand grenade in the U.S., you still have to have its tax stamp for it and it has to be registered and stuff.
01:48:00.000And if you blow it up, there has to be an ATF agent present.
01:48:23.000So, you wouldn't be able to use that for self defense.
01:48:25.000Um, what if there was an ATF agent with you when you were when you needed to use it?
01:48:29.000I mean, look, you're probably like it's not a good idea to use an M87.
01:48:35.000For self defense, there's no controlling where the shrapnel flies.
01:48:38.000But right now, what we're waiting on is we're waiting to find out if the DOJ is going to take the finding and they're going to appeal it.
01:48:49.000And if they appeal it, I believe it's going to the Fifth Circuit, which is famously pro gun.
01:48:54.000So if the DOJ doesn't actually do anything by the 12th, which is next Wednesday, I believe, then the ruling stands.
01:49:01.000And so anyone that's covered under the lawsuit, so that's Gun Owners of America members, Silencer Co. members, Silencer Shop members, and there were 12 states that signed on.
01:49:22.000If it doesn't get appealed by the 12th, then it becomes law for the plaintiffs.
01:49:27.000And if it does get appealed, you're still going to a very two way friendly court.
01:49:32.000So the Trump administration DOJ might say, you know what, we're not even going to fight this because we don't have a great chance at what's it called.
01:49:40.000We don't feel particularly strongly about it because we think that these should be, you know, the NFA in and of itself is an infringement.
01:49:51.000Dylan, say anything about it, make any kind of remarks about it, or release a statement.
01:49:55.000So, as of right now, we're waiting for an appeal from the Trump DOJ or we're waiting for the 12th for it to take effect because they put a stay.
01:50:05.000Astrofox says there's a mini series in Canada and the UK markets called Back in Time for Dinner.
01:50:09.000They have a family live in each decade for a week, almost exactly your idea, Tim.
01:50:13.000Everything from food, entertainment, social rules, et cetera, et cetera.
01:50:17.000My original idea was to build a building with five units.
01:50:21.000Each is a two bedroom, and you have 90s, 80s, 70s, 60s, and 50s.
01:54:28.000You have to find somebody who runs some of these like boutique businesses that run these types of things that do these experiences.
01:54:35.000We also offer an optional service for Thanksgiving.
01:54:39.000We can have your extended family come over if you don't have one for an extra two grand.
01:54:45.000And so we'll get like aunt and uncle with their teenage kids and grandma and grandpa come over.
01:54:52.000And so it'll be like, you know, You know, two aunts, two uncles, maybe like three or four teenage kids, and then two grandparents come and they'll have Thanksgiving with you if you don't have anybody.
01:55:44.000Indeed it was, and it was amazing because on Family Guy, Peter's like, we have to explain this to you.
01:55:51.000He was like, Seth MacFarlane's like, I understand that many of our audience under 40 won't get the reference to this joke, so we're going to have to show you.
01:56:00.000And the funniest thing is, he's like, the thing I don't understand is if they all know who this guy is, why are they surprised by the way that he talks?
01:56:08.000And if they don't know who he is, why is he at the table?
02:00:01.000And they said that this is what I was told like before the opening of Casper, they had to go to McDonald's because there was nowhere they could all sit down together.
02:00:08.000And now that the coffee shop opened and there's like a big table everyone can sit at, they can all hang out in the morning and do their Bible study.
02:05:18.000I think I looked this up the other day.
02:05:20.000This is why, prime example of why age matters.
02:05:26.000There's some story I'm trying to track where Matt Van Swall claimed a black guy is going around beating up women, but he didn't source anything.
02:05:32.000There's no news, no names, no understanding of what's going on.
02:05:54.000Um, and she runs away from him, runs around another car, and kind of keeps the car in between him.
02:05:59.000And then he, uh, he finds, I just got to say this you know, what Matt Van Swall has did here, do not do.
02:06:09.000In all caps, there's currently a black man in Charlotte who is brutally beating white women.
02:06:13.000He posts the video, doesn't say where the video's from, how to find it, how to source anything.
02:06:17.000So for me, when we're doing pre production, and he posts at 727, meaning We have roughly like 20 minutes to try, like, we're trying to do a cam work at the same time.
02:06:26.000And I'm like, oh, this is a big story.
02:06:27.000But he's provided no leads whatsoever, no information, no context.
02:06:32.000It's just a video of him laying on the ground as a guy is smacking her face saying, say Elijah.
02:06:36.000So I have no idea what it is or how to report it.
02:06:38.000We just say, okay, we're not going to cover it because we don't know what it is.
02:06:46.000And there's literally no fucking information as to what it is.
02:06:50.000So I get frustrated as fuck from conservatives sharing this and also not saying what it is.
02:06:56.000Guys, When someone posts a video with no context and y'all jump around like fucking lemmings screaming, ooh, ooh, ooh, and we don't know what it is, you're not helping anything.
02:07:42.000So, nothing that we can even really talk about because none of these people that see the story can't calm down for two seconds and be like, I saw this video here.
02:07:55.000Like, if I could pull up the live stream, we could have pulled up a bunch of information on this and people could have actually called the cops and maybe stopped it.
02:13:39.000So, Archelle, you're from California, and you are not a fan of Gavin Newsom, from what I hear.
02:13:46.000How would you get Latinos to vote consistently red?
02:13:52.000For starters, the reason that they don't vote consistently red is because no one's actually given them any attention, especially in the district that I'm in.
02:13:59.000They don't understand the legislation that Gavin Newsom has passed and how it's directly affected him.
02:14:04.000If you want to talk about the PPP loans, we actually defaulted on a $20 billion loan that directly raised the payroll taxes.
02:14:14.000And now the employers are paying more just to hire someone and issue a paycheck.
02:14:18.000A lot of the people in my district are small business owners.
02:14:21.000The moment you start making them aware that all of these policies, that why all of this is happening and how the policies affect their lives, they're more likely to listen to you as a Republican.
02:14:31.000When you talk to them about their children and all of the legislation that has been passed in California to decimate your ability to raise your own child, then they start listening.
02:14:43.000So these are cultures, and it's not just the Latino population, a lot of the minority populations, they're already.
02:14:49.000Conservative, they just don't understand that they align themselves more with the Republican Party now as opposed to what the Democrat Party even stands for.
02:14:59.000Because there has been no real effort into educating this demographic and all they're hearing is propaganda, that's why they vote the way they do.
02:15:07.000But once you start educating these people, they hate socialism.
02:15:10.000With the rise of the DSA, this is the perfect opportunity for the Republican Party to say, hey, you guys are literally voting from the same system that ruined your home countries.
02:15:19.000Do you want to do this to this country?
02:16:46.000It's nice to see that our sailing mate, Tim Cass, is the best podcast that gets people from the middle to become a MAGA extremist, in my opinion.
02:17:50.000So I think that when it comes to softening the image, when people interact with people on the right, they almost, like almost every anecdote I've ever heard, they're like, oh,
02:18:07.000Like they'll interact with people that are MAGA people because MAGA people, like, you know, the people on the right, however you want to describe it, they're not.
02:18:20.000They'll be like, oh, you've stepped out of line, so we're kicking you out.
02:18:25.000And you consistently hear stories about how, oh, well, you know, I heard these people saying that the MAGA people were all crazy, MAGA people were this,
02:18:36.000but then I went and I hung out with some of them and we agree on a lot and they were really nice.
02:18:41.000You don't hear those same kind of stories about the left, right?
02:18:44.000The left is, again, very exclusionary.
02:18:47.000If you don't agree with them, They have the mindset that it is not because you could have a different opinion coming from a different world experience or different, you know, they're not charitable about why you have a different opinion.
02:19:04.000It is almost always because you have a moral failure.
02:19:09.000Somewhere it's because you are an immoral person.
02:19:12.000And this is actually shown in a lot of, a lot of like surveys and stuff that they do.
02:19:22.000Or, like people on the right, they believe they're evil, they believe that they're motivated by evil intentions.
02:19:30.000People on the right look at people on the left and say, Well, they're just dumb, you know, they're just silly.
02:19:36.000They, you know, they want pie, they're pro they mean well because the things that they say they want are actually, you know, like they're good.
02:19:44.000It's just you can't get there the way they want.
02:19:46.000And people on the right, by their very nature, nowadays are more accepting and more tolerant of other people than people on the left are.
02:19:54.000So, I think that the way to get People to understand that is to interact with people that are in the center more as much as you can.
02:20:02.000It's also hard because one of the things that's happened to a lot of people, at least people as you call MAGA extremists, is that a lot of them came from the center or came from other sides of the political spectrum.
02:20:16.000And what you found after a fact is that they, you know, they got called racist so much that they just stopped caring that they were called racist because it doesn't mean anything anymore.
02:20:25.000And it's weird because someone like me, who I think, you know, anybody who's watched this show understands that I'm still.
02:20:30.000Probably center left on a lot of issues, but just I've had people who don't know, don't care what my beliefs are before I ever came to work here who, you know, would call me an extremist just because I had any.
02:20:45.000Remember the Jerry O'Connell thing where he basically said to his wife, where he's like, maybe they should have held a primary instead of like hitting him or something or whatever the hell happened?
02:20:53.000Like that's the type of person you're kind of up against now is somebody who's so ideologically poisoned that they can't see things from.
02:21:01.000Any other perspective, and the only real way around that is to be patient to interact with them.
02:21:06.000And you know, for me, it's all about just like I have so many things like I have so many friends that skate where it's like politics never come up, it's never been discussed.
02:21:15.000I don't know what they're playing, I can infer, I'm sure, on some of them, but it doesn't matter.
02:21:20.000And it's just boring in their nose, yeah, yeah.
02:21:22.000Like I've uh, I've never cared, and and they for the most part have never asked or cared what I, you know, what my beliefs are because it's not relevant to our life experience.
02:21:31.000So, having hobbies outside of politics is another really good way.
02:21:35.000To do that because it humanizes you when you have something you share together that you like to do and brings you together.
02:21:43.000The left is an evil cult that has to be crushed.
02:21:46.000And the reason I say this is because conservatives in any hobby have no problems.
02:21:51.000Companies that work with conservatives, the conservatives and moderates don't go to like a skiing company and say, I won't work with you because you're working with insert leftist.
02:22:03.000The left, however, says, well, Molotov, you're building if you work with a conservative.
02:22:34.000So, he, for something about January 6th, Set him off and he reached out because what I was doing is on my Instagram story, I was like thanking people that joined the Patreon individually.
02:22:44.000He reached out to them and he told them that I was an insurrectionist who this is a guy I'd known for 20 years, an insurrectionist who hated America and is supporting me is basically supporting terrorism.
02:23:39.000They expected me to be white, not a brown.
02:23:42.000Latina with the right name so I can resonate with the population.
02:23:47.000But it really does help to do things that humanize you.
02:23:51.000You just can't get in front of everybody within three months, which is what I have left.
02:23:55.000But the goal is to get in front of enough people who then the beautiful thing about our Latinos is that all they do is gossip and talk, and we're really good at that.
02:24:02.000So you can touch one person, you touch 10.
02:24:09.000As a matter of fact, Steve Hilton's really benefiting from the Uh, Latina touch that RSLE has been putting on the campaign.
02:24:16.000So, I'm hoping that everybody will realize that if you save LA County, you help RSLA do that, you'll save California and then we'll save the nation because we have the most Republicans here in the whole country.
02:24:30.000Yeah, it's smart because he understands that we can't win another election in California unless we start appealing to the second largest demographic, which are Latinos.
02:24:39.000You don't need to pander to them, you just need to get the truth in front of them.
02:25:01.000And you guys have the same principles and more beliefs, but they don't know it because you're not fighting back against the propaganda that the left is spreading.
02:25:21.000They're also, yeah, Republicans need the ground game, man.
02:25:25.000Yeah, but our problem is like I mentioned before, our party in LA is basically bankrupt.
02:25:32.000Our state party almost feels like they're fighting against us to do this stuff because we ain't no support here almost in Southern California.
02:26:23.000Make sure you donate to RSLE's campaign.
02:26:26.000Go on to Instagram, RSLE underscore unfiltered, so that way you can find it.
02:26:30.000She's not, um, you know, very good at saying, Hey, give me money just yet.
02:26:34.000None of us really are, but yeah, we can't win without more backpacks and all that stuff.
02:26:38.000And then we also have a comedy show on August 29th.
02:26:42.000Uh, any ticket sales generated through the flyers you guys see on those chats will be a portion will be going to her campaign as well.
02:26:48.000We got Avon, he's the one of the culture work comedians, he's going to be uh bringing on the house in our local city of Whittier, California, not the one in Alaska, Southern California.
02:26:58.000Awesome, that's what we got going on, and uh, yeah, you guys will be um.
02:27:04.000Helping fight the fight, even though you guys are all across the country.
02:28:08.000In a series of just advertising for ordinary phone operators working for subcontractors.
02:28:14.000The whole thing was just owned by these two cousins that found, like, she was working as one of those subcontractors, a phone operator, and they just found her, liked her, liked her accent, which, by the way, is also fake.
02:31:09.000I'm going to shout out Phil Labonte because, you know, I've been listening to him since 2006, skateboarding, listening to Phil, blasting his music.
02:31:44.000They're kind of related, kind of not, but I think the first one's going to be pretty open and shut.
02:31:50.000Now that the concept of Strasshal generational theory is at least fairly well known throughout the podcast, consumer zeitgeist, is there any chance of breaking the cycle since everyone sort of knows?
02:32:02.000What fates we're in, like we can sort of pass it down and get people to not fall into the weak men, hard times thing again.
02:32:42.000That phrase, or whatever you want to call it, has staying power is because it's a commentary on society.
02:32:49.000And whereas you think that people learn things, individuals learn, and it's really hard to get societies to learn.
02:33:01.000You know, like all the stuff that's going on now when it comes to like relationships between men and women, Schopenhauer predicted it in 1851, right?
02:33:12.000Like he laid out what was going to happen.
02:33:15.000If, you know, the honor culture surrounding
02:33:23.000women's sexuality changed, and he predicted everything.
02:33:27.000And this kind of thing happens and it degrades a society.
02:33:47.000It takes a change in human psychology, and human beings generally are the same today as they were 2,000, 3,000, 5,000 years ago, psychologically.
02:34:01.000There are differences when it comes to obviously the world we live in, but human psychology doesn't change.
02:34:10.000First of all, it doesn't change quickly, and second of all, it doesn't change without some kind of outside thing affecting it.
02:34:18.000Evolution isn't like some predestined thing.
02:34:22.000You can watch videos like How Many Times Things Have Evolved Into Crabs.
02:35:22.000Where because we're intelligent, we don't experience
02:35:30.000the same kind of pressures that other animals do.
02:35:34.000We can largely shape the world around us.
02:35:37.000So there's not going to be some kind of, I mean, not saying that there's not.
02:35:42.000The pressures on human beings are not the same pressures as they are on animals.
02:35:48.000We're not as driven by instinct anymore.
02:35:54.000So, I don't think that there is a way to kind of teach people that this is the way you should live your life.
02:36:00.000That's one of the things that religion used to do.
02:36:02.000Like, if you live your life according to the Bible, regardless of whether or not you believe in God, if you live your life generally the way the Bible says and you organize your society generally the way that the Bible says, you'll have a successful society.
02:36:17.000You could almost push back a little bit on that and say, according to the theory, you know, the last cycle was, I guess, the Civil War, and before that was the Revolutionary War.
02:36:26.000And both those times were times when people were largely, you know, a lot more Christian than they are now.
02:36:41.000Like, there's a difference between being a successful society and a society having, you know, reaching points where there's friction in the society or there's friction with another society and wars happen and stuff like that.
02:36:56.000When you take away the things that kind of the Bible sets up, then you have a degradation of the society.
02:37:03.000And you're seeing that, you know, it's.
02:37:06.000Don't take any of this personally, but you know, you see things when it comes to like, you know, when it comes to the way that people exist in society, for the most part, men and women should get together and make babies, right?
02:37:18.000And the more you have alternative lifestyles, the fewer people that are getting together and having babies.
02:37:35.000And so that, like, Without those kind of pressures, external pressures, people start doing whatever they want to do or whatever their impulse, you know, whatever they have the impulse to do.
02:37:47.000And that just leads to more people living an impulsive lifestyle.
02:37:52.000People talk about, I think that, like, people that say that, like, they want to be free and stuff.
02:37:57.000You're not free if you're bending to every impulse you have.
02:38:02.000Like, discipline is the path to freedom because then you're in control.
02:38:08.000If you're not disciplined, then you're basically giving in to every whim you have.
02:38:14.000I don't feel like getting out of bed today.
02:38:15.000I don't feel like going to work today.
02:38:17.000I don't feel like doing the things that I need to do to make my life successful down the road.
02:38:20.000If you're disciplined, I can do all that stuff every day.
02:39:13.000And I was sort of thinking about this one a little bit, and I have some counterpoints because I know y'all are going to say it's going to be the West.
02:39:19.000But so, this article we saw this week or last week about scientists saying they should drop the Earth's population to 4 billion, who gets to stay?
02:39:44.000The West with the collapsing birth rate or places like Africa?
02:39:48.000That mostly skipped things like the COVID shots and are still breeding like crazy.
02:39:53.000It feels like the people in power are waiting for Singularity and Optimus level robots to be at scale before they pull the trigger on any kind of a real depopulation event.
02:40:03.000But, you know, to me, it's like if they wipe us down to 4 billion by getting rid of the West, you know, won't the third world just get itself back up there real fast?
02:40:14.000I know they're not going to go from 4 billion to 8 billion in like two years or anything, but, you know, won't it sort of be the same problem in 30 or 40 years?
02:40:21.000Well, there aren't enough people in the West.
02:40:45.000Like you're going to get into India, you're going to get into China, and you're going to get into Africa, whether we like it or not.
02:40:55.000Or whether, you know, no matter how you slice it, you don't get rid of, you know, enough people if you're trying to get rid of a billion if you get rid of the West.
02:41:04.000You don't even like, or I mean, you're trying to get rid of four billion.
02:41:07.000You only get rid of like, you know, less than a billion.
02:41:34.000But you're gonna get into India, you're gonna.
02:41:37.000So, I mean, I don't know how you'd want to make the selection, but it's probably a good idea.
02:41:46.000I mean, obviously, those people that are that propose the idea would say that they should stay, and then, like, you know, Western society should be first on the chopping block because of the damage we've done to Earth.
02:41:58.000Because of the bad things that we've done.
02:42:01.000But at the same time, Western society is the society that has brought all of the rest of the world, drug it along, kicking and screaming into what we consider the modern world.
02:42:15.000You're not going to have, Africa has been Africa, it's been the same for 5,000 years.
02:42:23.000There are very few successful societies that have not been strongly shaped by European.
02:42:55.000There are smart Indians, of course, because there's 1.5 billion of them.
02:43:01.000But at the same time, like, They were a mess for a long time, and you know, the English kind of came in and showed them how to be, for lack of a better term, civilized, you know.
02:43:17.000So, I don't know how you'd split it up, but the argument to get rid of the argument from the people that are proposing this idea is gonna be, oh, you should get rid of the West, they're the ones that have done this damage.
02:43:29.000But at the same time, you're literally dooming millions and millions and millions, probably another couple billion.
02:43:37.000You're dooming them because without things the West provides, they're going to die anyways.
02:44:05.000the sea lanes are going to be run by China and Russia, or China or Russia, and they're not going to be nearly as benevolent as the United States is.
02:44:16.000This is an argument I'm sure you heard me make it the other night.
02:44:19.000There has never been a society that has as much power as the United States that did not absolutely decimate.
02:44:26.000As many other civilizations as they possibly could.
02:44:31.000And people will make the argument oh, well, the US has been at war, you know, ever since the end of World War II.
02:44:37.000And we've been in, you know, low grade wars or small scale wars.
