On today's show, Nick Sorter joins us to talk about the latest in the Trump/Biden saga, including the Supreme Court ruling on immunity for Donald Trump, and the growing number of calls for Joe Biden to step down from the 2020 Democratic primary race.
00:00:14.000Earlier today, we learned that the prosecution in the Hush Money case would not oppose his efforts to postpone the sentencing.
00:00:21.000The courts have now agreed the sentencing in the Hush Money case is postponed until September because of the Supreme Court ruling on immunity.

00:03:31.000I am an independent journalist, pretty, I would say, known for yelling at politicians for a living, confronting them in places like Maui and East Palestine, Ohio.
00:03:40.000Also at the Capitol here, right down the road.
00:03:43.000And yeah, I mean, there's a hell of a lot to talk about here tonight, especially on that front.
00:06:50.000Well, the Manhattan District Attorney's Office sent this letter saying, well, we think that their claims are meritless, but we would be okay with you delaying it by two weeks, right?
00:07:00.000So he was saying, you know, it could go to late July, basically.
00:07:14.000Yeah, well, because this throws a monkey wrench in the entire case at this point, because they were actually relying on evidence that was, you know... The case is literally, when Trump was president, he signed a check for his lawyer.
00:07:32.000And so when that is your key point of evidence that you're relying on in order to try to get this conviction, and it comes out and the Supreme Court is saying, you know, they haven't said this directly about this case yet, but you know, from every point of view that I've heard at this point, it seems like that's going to be the argument.
00:07:49.000I think Merchant's going to do everything he can not to have it thrown out entirely, but to have a new trial again.
00:07:54.000But obviously a new trial would probably not occur before the election.
00:08:05.000Hunter Biden goes to trial on his tax stuff on September 5th.
00:08:08.000So we're going to have these dueling trials on opposite coasts as everyone sort of looks at these two political families and say, like, what's going on with you guys?
00:08:15.000Well, because taxation is theft, free Hunter Biden.
00:08:59.000So he's talking to Mike Pence on January 6th, official duties, gone.
00:09:04.000He's talking to politicians, states, about election results, contesting the results.
00:09:12.000He's the chief law enforcement officer of this country.
00:09:14.000I mean, how many lines did we see as the president?
00:09:17.000He needed to step in and do whatever, which we know he did, of course, send messages saying, go home, whatever else.
00:09:22.000But everyone invoked this as his official responsibility to intercede on January 6th.
00:09:26.000So I don't really understand how that case could go forward.
00:09:28.000I mean, it is amazing to me that the panic and hysteria has become, well, now we have a king when actually this is something that the Biden administration themselves are probably going to rely on so that no one goes after them in the future.
00:09:41.000Well, so the reason that this case in DC for the J6 situation is going to move forward is because the judge is Judge Chutkin, and I don't know if you know anything about Judge Chutkin, but she is a zealot, okay?
00:09:53.000She is a left-wing zealot that has, you know, imprisoned Uh, these J6ers for years and years and years, probably the, you know, that wasn't a randomly selected judge.
00:10:02.000I know that's what they're trying to say, but she has to be the one at this point to, you know, throw the case out.
00:10:36.000I mean, at this point, you're looking at, I'm sure you guys heard all, you know, yesterday, panic from the left.
00:10:43.000These congress people that you'd never heard of in your life that came out of the woodwork and say, well, Joe Biden can just, at this point, he can just use Seal Team Six to take out President Trump or whatever this way.
00:11:10.000Let me just point this out for a second.
00:11:11.000The reason why they're upset about this is because Barack Obama murdered 16-year-old Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki, an American citizen.
00:11:19.000He was born, I believe he was born in Colorado, and he grew up in San Diego, and he was visiting family that he had in Yemen, and Barack Obama ordered his death.
00:11:28.000And that's why they're scared, because to them, they have long known the President has the authority to execute Americans without charge or trial, and now they're scared that they can't do anything if that power is used against their interests.
00:11:43.000Now, I'm not going to say the average Democrat understands any of that.
00:11:46.000I'm saying at the highest levels, they're like, I don't believe this is a scenario where Democrats or Republicans are really worried that the Democrats are going to drone strike Trump or send Steel Team Six in.
00:11:57.000What this really means is Democrats know Donald Trump can order Steel Team Six to go after Democrat assets in foreign countries and ain't nothing's ever going to be done about it.
00:12:07.000They've got assets in Ukraine that are probably operating illegally.
00:12:12.000You've got people like Hunter Biden, obviously, who operated illegally in Brisbane.
00:12:15.000I don't think he's at risk of anything like that.
00:12:17.000But imagine, if Barack Obama's killed, and I believe he killed, there's two I can name off the top of my head, Anwar al-Awlaki and Abdulrahman al-Awlaki.
00:12:24.000Anwar was accused of being a jihadi, so Obama assassinated him.
00:12:28.000And then his son, who was not accused of anything, was killed in a whoopsie-daisy by Obama, Obama's administration claimed.
00:12:38.000Think about what happens when Obama murders Americans and they don't do anything about it.
00:12:42.000Because Republicans didn't care either.
00:12:44.000Now if Donald Trump knows that there's some asset on par with the likes of Anwar al-Awlaki that is assisting Democrats in some way and he targets them, Democrats have no, no, they have no, nothing, they can't do anything about it.
00:12:56.000Ever since they signed that thing, National Defense Authorization Act, that gave the president the authority to drone bomb a citizen because they're assumed that they're a terrorist?
00:13:06.000The National Defense Authorization Act is re-upped every year, but in 2012 it was the indefinite detention provision.
00:13:12.000It included a provision that would allow the president to basically rendition anyone at any time for any reason.
00:13:18.000They could grab you, put a black bag over your head, bring you out to the middle of the ocean, and put you on a boat and torture you for the rest of your life.
00:13:24.000That's when I started speaking up about this craziness, and I think the Supreme Court's just solidifying that that is the law right now.
00:13:34.000You have to impeach him retroactively for his actions that he took, and that's never going to happen because the Republican Party, for the most part, is totally down with it.
00:13:42.000But you gotta impeach him and say, that is a high crime.
00:13:45.000We hereby assert that action is a high crime and a misdemeanor or a misdemeanor is not an official act.
00:13:51.000Then after you impeach and convict, then you can bring in criminal prosecution.
00:13:55.000But I find it really interesting that no other former president, no former president has said anything about this at all.
00:14:01.000Nothing about the Supreme Court ruling.
00:14:02.000They're radio silent on it and you're like, hmm, I wonder why?
00:14:05.000You know, of course they support this.
00:14:15.000He doesn't know that he supports it or doesn't support it.
00:14:18.000I mean, that's the whole thing about all of this, really, which is like, and I said this last night, so I don't mean to be a broken record, but There wasn't a way that the Supreme Court could rule on this issue that would make especially progressives, but just even average Democrats happy, right?
00:14:31.000Because all of this is about fear-mongering.
00:14:33.000It's about saying, well, now Trump's going to be out of control and you have to go to the polls because otherwise, you know, everything we know falls apart.
00:14:40.000When actually, I was referencing this before the show, if you watch the way Australian media and British media are covering this issue, they're reporting that it's a new law.
00:14:50.000It's a new law that as long as everyone actually knows the Supreme Court's interpretation of existing law, and that's why the Supreme Court is there to settle these matters.
00:14:58.000There is a fundamental belief that somehow this is going to change everything when actually it's clarification of how we already operate as a country.
00:15:06.000And again, the hysteria is what they think will drive voters to the polls.
00:15:09.000So they need to be mad at the Supreme Court.
00:15:11.000They need to be fearful of Trump to have any action with their party.
00:15:14.000So in reality, nothing has really changed with this ruling at all because, you know, this wasn't even necessary.
00:15:18.000It was always understood that presidents had a level of immunity, right?
00:15:22.000But this wasn't a problem until Joe Biden decided to weaponize the DOJ to go after his political opponent.
00:15:28.000That's the only reason we're even talking about this right now.
00:15:31.000There's a little bit of a tangent here, but I've long thought the Supreme Court needs some sort of term limit, because I think with life extension coming up, you're going to see 150-year-olds, 130-year-olds, Ketanji Brown-Jackson 80 years from now could still be on the court.
00:15:44.000I wouldn't agree with the idea of, like, term limits, but I do agree with the argument of life extension, because we are going to get to the point where you're right.
00:15:52.000Ketanji Brown-Jackson will be hooked up like Mr. House in New Vegas to a gurney with tubes coming out of her, and she's going to be like, Well, I mean, it's sort of like Ruth Bader Ginsburg, though.
00:16:17.000If you believe that they did the right thing, the ball's now in your court.
00:16:19.000You have the power to suggest, even though I believe they do the right thing, I still want to see term limits for these people.
00:16:24.000See, I think it speaks more to culture.
00:16:25.000I think we should have a culture that believes that we have a generation that can take over power.
00:16:29.000Everyone is so power-hungry that really, like, with Ruth Bader Ginsburg, I mean, the rumor was that she was not alive and her staff was just pretending she was so they could continue to issue rulings, right?
00:16:37.000Because they knew her as the figurehead.
00:16:42.000You know, but Sandra Day O'Connor stepped down, stepped down really early, fairly young, and she continued to have a life of advocacy and talking about, you know, starting educational programs for children.
00:16:51.000It's the person's decision to stay or leave.
00:16:53.000And in a lot of these cases, perhaps the justices themselves are power hungry, but also there's a lot of pressure to stay in until it's optimal for the party that they think you align with to replace you.
00:17:04.000So that was one of the things that happened with American.
00:17:06.000And Ruth Bader Ginsburg, she thought for sure that Hillary Clinton was going to win that election.
00:17:10.000She would be able to, you know, because she couldn't really step down before that.
00:17:13.000They were having such a hard time even getting Merrick Garland through.
00:17:16.000Later, they were like, you should have stepped down earlier.
00:17:20.000I mean, this is the thing about the Supreme Court is like, I agree with you.
00:17:22.000Maybe there's a question of like, as we live longer and longer, you know, how long do they want us to court?
00:17:27.000On the other hand, if we had a culture that allowed people to retire and transition power, it would work better.
00:17:33.000Really, what we're doing to our geriatric leaders right now is kind of crazy.
00:17:38.000Either they're so power hungry they want to stay in power, Joe Biden, or they are being propped up so that the people under them who can't gain that position rightfully on their own can use it to get their will through, Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
00:18:20.000He was, you know, talking, his handlers, you know, didn't have control of him.
00:18:23.000And he went over and said something to some people about how, you know, uh, and the reason he's saying that he almost fell asleep on stage was because he had been traveling for, uh, around the world Right before the debate, but that's not even true.
00:18:37.000I mean, the man forgot that he was on a seven-day vacation where he didn't wake up until 11 in the morning and had to take an afternoon nap.
00:18:44.000I don't know if you guys saw that story earlier as well.
00:18:46.000That was in the New York Times saying that.
00:18:48.000That's not some right-wing outlet that came out with that.
00:18:52.000Because the New York Times, from what I know about it, was saying that his family is starting to blame his support staff around him, that they did not prepare him well enough.
00:18:59.000I mean, I think the other part is like we have to look at this word admitted.
00:19:02.000I think they're trying to now roll out the latest excuse as to why Biden was not so good.
00:19:07.000Oh, he was tired because he was traveling.
00:19:09.000That makes you look not strong as a president.
00:19:12.000Today in her press conference Corinne Jean-Pierre said, oh well as you know he had a cold and that's why his voice was gruff.
00:19:19.000Like it's just lie after lie to present these excuses hoping that you will be sympathetic to him.
00:19:24.000I'm not sympathetic to someone who's currently the President of the United States who thinks that they're gonna fall asleep on stage and that's why they are bad at what they're doing and saying that it was a complete lie.
00:19:36.000No Americans died on their watch when we know Very basically that 13 Marines did in Afghanistan.
00:19:42.000I think all the Americans should be insulted by this.
00:19:45.000Well, this is a horrible excuse, especially because there was just that story that came out last week that Biden is only, you know, coherent between 10 a.m.
00:21:09.000And so when they ask these questions, it seems like it's questions Democrats actually want asked, because now is the time they're making the move to replace Joe Biden.
00:21:17.000So yeah, it almost seems like all of these hit pieces that came out this weekend, it's not because, oh, these journalists actually care about the good of the country.
00:21:25.000They care about winning the election in November, and they know that Joe Biden can't do it.
00:21:43.000One of the things is, I think, and I could be wrong, I've read very basic stuff on this, but all of the money that's been fundraised by the DNC for Joe Biden can only go to Kamala Harris if he drops out.
00:21:54.000From what I read about it, I could be wrong on that, but that would be a huge loss.
00:21:58.000I mean, that's hundreds of millions of dollars that can't go to Gavin Newsom if they were to try to put him in, or else it has to continue on this ticket of Kamala Harris.
00:22:05.000But you can't even get rid of Kamala Harris to begin with because, you know, she's a DEI hire at this point, right?
00:22:10.000And so how do you get rid of the first black woman vice president?
00:22:15.000How do you kick her out of the way and be like, okay, yeah, we're going to install this white guy out of California.
00:22:46.000I mean, Kellan was talking about this before the show, but AOC being like, I'm going to impeach the Supreme Court, right, as soon as we get back.
00:22:51.000Like, they're actually kind of on pause right now.
00:22:54.000There's only four months until the election.
00:22:56.000Kamala is not going to get guaranteed a spot in the Supreme Court before the time comes.
00:23:00.000But this sort of confirms everything that we have been talking about, or at least I've been saying on X for months now, is that they only agreed to this early debate because they needed this option.
00:23:12.000They needed to have this option where they could nuke Biden, throw him to the side, and still have enough time before the convention to re-nominate somebody else.
00:23:23.000They knew they were going to swap out Biden a long time ago, and they dragged this out as long as they could, perhaps because they want to make it very, very difficult to drum up opposition research.
00:23:33.000Republicans have no idea who they're up against.
00:23:38.000Right now, I think it is fair to say, The Republican Party, Donald Trump, and the American people have no idea who the Democrat nominee is.
00:23:46.000Yeah, it's either going to be Michelle Obama, Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Hillary Clinton, doubtful, but like, who else?
00:23:53.000I don't think they can pull Biden from the ticket.
00:24:01.000She's been saying for the longest time that she won't do it, but as we know, that doesn't actually mean she won't do it.
00:24:06.000No, she'll come out and she'll say, we all saw that debate, and our hearts go out to the Biden family, but we can tell he is not prepared for a second term.
00:24:17.000So as much as I don't want to do this, I am going to do what is asked of me and then she's on stage.
00:24:22.000Okay, but how do you do that without Biden resigning?
00:24:24.000You can't say that and then still have Biden as president for the next, you know, six months.
00:24:38.000And then Kamala says, there is no reasonable world where I will spend the last four months campaigning instead of doing my duty to this country.
00:24:50.000The excuse will be, it's impossible to launch a campaign at such last minute, 11th hour.
00:24:58.000I'm gonna do what I can to help this country make it through these next few months, and I am happy to see Michelle Obama run.
00:25:04.000And that's how you get past- I gotta say, maybe this is- I should go to Predict It and make this back, because I'll tell you what.
00:27:15.000But then at that point, a lot of what you said makes a hell of a lot of sense for Michelle Obama, but you know, how do you push Camilla out of the way if you're bringing in Gavin Newsom, though.
00:27:25.000She does the, I am acting president, and I have, you know, she could say something like, how dare you imply that instead of doing my duty during this emergency, I would spend my time campaigning to win power?
00:28:04.000They kind of did this with Biden in 2020.
00:28:06.000They had all these candidates that were running against him, and then all at once, behind the scenes, some discussions were made.
00:28:11.000Buttigieg lands on his cabinet, and they all support Biden at once.
00:28:15.000I could see them all doing that, including Kamala, just one day.
00:28:17.000They're like, the superdelegates have chosen Obama and Newsom, and they've got the support of every Democrat because they go behind the scenes for it.
00:28:49.000I don't think that he would actually give up the presidency.
00:28:51.000I think that there is a desire to stay in power, to end your career on top, aka being the president.
00:28:57.000And it's just unlikely to me that, especially given what, six months till inauguration day, he's not gonna leave.
00:29:03.000Except that when they do go to the president and they slide that picture of Kennedy across the table and they're like, just remember who's in charge.
00:29:10.000They might do that to Biden too and be like, you get to retire now.
00:29:13.000And they'll slide a picture of Kennedy across the table.
00:29:15.000He'd be like, I don't understand what this is.
00:30:04.000I made this argument earlier that I think if you take the 270 to win map, toss-up states are now lean Republican and lean Democrats are now toss-ups.
00:30:16.000The margin drop post-debate because of Biden's performance.
00:30:21.000It is two points across the board in basically every state.
00:30:25.000He's lost two solid points in key states.
00:30:29.000And there's no denying it at this point.
00:30:30.000I know you still get people like Jennifer Rubin is on Twitter all day being like, oh, the polls are exactly the same as they were months ago.
00:30:38.000And I'm like, OK, well, just look at them, lady.
00:30:40.000But, you know, this is clearly a strategic leak.
00:30:43.000The Democrats are usually a lot better about keeping things hush hush internally.
00:30:46.000And, you know, all of a sudden we got leaked internal polling because they're in scorched earth mode at this point.
00:30:51.000Look at, you know, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, places Trump supposedly lost last election.
00:31:00.000He's deeply underwater in those territories.
00:31:03.000There's no way for him to win with this.
00:31:05.000You take North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, and I turn them red, Trump wins.
00:31:24.000Bobby Barak says, I've seen different maps, but from my calculation, this is the map projection based on OpenLab's new internal polling data, meaning if OpenLab's polling holds, it will be 205 Democrats, 333 Republicans, but I'll tell you what's going to happen.
00:31:41.000They're going to have an open convention at the DNC, and they're going to nominate somebody else.
00:31:45.000Kamala Harris gets tossed out, and everyone's wondering, what's the political move?
00:32:11.000She dropped out, got a facelift, and came back as his VP.
00:32:14.000And after she said that she thought that Biden was a racist and had done things to women and such, too.
00:32:20.000Oh, and then slipped like a 180 right after.
00:32:22.000How do you go from... But all right, well, I mean, but we know exactly what happened there.
00:32:26.000And she's only polling one point higher than Joe Biden in the theoretical polling data that's coming out, you know, Trump versus Kamala matchup.
00:33:09.000But I think your point that it's interesting that there's even a leak at all is a good one to bring up because I think it speaks to the fact that there is intense internal chaos within the Democratic Party.
00:33:19.000And I have thought this for a long time.
00:33:20.000Democrats are always like, Republicans are all crazy.
00:33:23.000We're going to get along, but that's because Republicans are ultimately all people who have different values who are trying to sort it out, whereas if you have a party that's like everyone fall in line and people stop doing that, it's much more divisive.
00:33:33.000And I think the fact that they're throwing these polls out would be indicative if it was an intentional leak by someone inside.
00:33:39.000The campaign is saying, we can't do this.
00:33:41.000We need to force the Biden family to accept that he needs to leave and they will never do that.
00:33:46.000Yeah, but I mean, we literally even had leaks out of Camp David this weekend, which, unheard of, unheard of, talking about how the Biden family was blaming, you know, top advisors like Ron Klain and stuff, and putting all the blame from the poor debate performance on his advisors.
00:34:16.000I heard that his advisor, when they were prepping for the debate, was basically prepping Biden to face a hostile Trump, a Trump that was going to insult him and make fun of him.
00:35:06.000Yeah, it's also interesting because I could be misremembering here, but I'm pretty sure the first person to talk despite being muted was Biden.
00:35:12.000You know, so there was a level of like there were these rules that were supposed to hurt Trump, but it seems like Biden was the one suffering.
00:35:19.000And I think ultimately all of this comes down to what is the perception of the American people.
00:35:23.000And it's not one that I think is recoverable because they have damaged themselves on two front, right?
00:35:32.000He looks like he doesn't know what's going on.
00:35:35.000He keeps saying Trump is lying, but there are very obvious clear signs that he was lying or at least misremembering, which is also not good.
00:35:41.000But then also for months, the mainstream media, which, as we know, is largely an apparatus of progressive or democratic causes, said everything is fine. Anytime a right wing person says
00:35:51.000that something's up with Joe Biden's balance or memory or walk or anything, they're crazy. They're
00:35:57.000conspiracy theorists. They're, you know, disrespectful to the president. And then he came
00:36:01.000on stage and it was not good. He did not seem like a strong, healthy man. You know, what
00:36:06.000really kind of cements all this, that he's not going to be the nominee, is that Jake Tapper
00:36:10.000and Anderson Cooper are going so hard against him and pointing out that his dementia, or if
00:36:15.000it's Alzheimer's, I'm not sure, they're different, obviously. But like, they're basically
00:36:20.000controlled by CNN, their company, parent company, which is controlled by Five Eyes, you know,
00:36:25.000the imperial spy club, whatever you want to call it, the deep state. And, you know, they're
00:36:28.000just, they're just, they're just, they're And so all the signs are there that the deep state has decided to allow this criticism of the guy.
00:36:34.000They wouldn't do that if they wanted him to win, and they're not going to let him win if they don't want him to win.
00:36:37.000The DNC gets to pick their own candidate with superdelegates.
00:37:20.000But, to be fair, how are they doing in PA?
00:37:23.000Looks like Democrats are doing moderately well in PA.
00:37:26.000I think Michigan probably doesn't make the most sense.
00:37:28.000The state that makes the most sense is probably going to be PA, which looks like they're all underwater.
00:37:33.000So if Trump secures that based on this polling, no matter who they bring in, Trump wins.
00:37:38.000I mean, right now, Biden is underwater in PA, Buttigieg is only underwater by 0.4 margin of error, Harris is underwater by 2 points, Newsom by 1.3, and Whitmer by 0.3.
00:38:30.000But it's also about the Obama legacy as well, because Obama has tied himself so tight to Joe Biden now, especially doing all these fundraisers, going around the country with him, and he's basically dragging Biden along.
00:38:43.000It's going to look awful on Obama and his legacy if everybody totally melts down in the Democrat Party.
00:38:52.000It's interesting that you said it, because I have felt like since Joe Biden announced he was running for office, the Obamas have been trying to distance themselves from him.
00:38:59.000Well, they wouldn't endorse him in the primary.
00:39:20.000I think people know that the Obamas are distant from Joe Biden, and I think that there's a level of like they expected there to be more buddy-buddy Obama presence at the White House.
00:39:29.000And I do think Obama, especially his staff, have huge influence on the Biden administration, especially at the staffing level.
00:39:35.000But I think Obama himself does not believe that he has a real strong connection with Joe.
00:39:39.000It's always seemed to me, the perception for me has been that the Biden family is always trying to I want to pull up this tweet from Glenn Greenwald.
00:40:01.000Many in the media failed to report more on Biden's cognitive issues because they feared, quote, blowback from the White House and Democrats, or worse, age stories angered the White House and the liberal Twittersphere the most.
00:43:05.000It's like Trump's people will gladly sit down and debate someone who doesn't agree with
00:43:12.000them and they will have that conversation.
00:43:14.000You can criticize them and they'll say, in fact, I tell you this, if I made a two-hour show, just a list of everything that I thought Trump was wrong about, my email would be slammed with Trump supporters being like, let me come on the show and talk to you about this.
00:43:30.000They say, in this scene in an article, The fear among these journalists is that if they report negative stuff, Kareem Jean-Pierre is going to be like, we're not going to let you come to the White House anymore.
00:44:11.000I don't know what happened Everybody knows chocolate chocolate chip is the manliest of flavors because those chocolate chips are hard and for someone like Joe Biden whose teeth constantly fall out Suck it till it melts.
00:44:26.000I think not only are they afraid of not getting invited to the White House for these things, but they're also afraid that the White House, if they criticize the president or his administration, that they're going to give them the Twitter treatment, that they're going to go in behind the scenes and be like, all right, CNN, no more funding for you for whatever we do surreptitiously behind the scenes.
00:44:44.000And that just indicates that the entire deep state mockingbird media apparatus has turned on this administration.
00:44:50.000That they're allowing two of their star reporters to criticize so openly and fervently, and which I see no other path than they're not going to get elected.
00:44:59.000The White House, Corinne Jean-Pierre, and also the chief spokesperson for the campaign had to be like, look, we know that that was kind of a rough debate.
00:45:08.000I mean, it was so bad they acknowledged it instead of just trying to be like, No, of course he did great.
00:45:14.000He was stunned by all of the lies Donald Trump was saying.
00:45:54.000But, you know, now they've got, obviously, the family at Camp David this weekend, you know, another leak that came out saying that they were all telling, keep fighting Joe, keep fighting Joe, keep fighting Joe.
00:46:16.000From one of the advisors to, I believe it was the New York Times today, they did a report on that.
00:46:20.000Nobody knows why Hunter Biden is with him, but that's because, you know, Hunter Biden is the, basically they're being charged at this point to make sure nobody gets too close to Joe Biden to convince him to drop out.
00:46:33.000They're like, they're like guard dogs now.
00:46:35.000Yeah, that's, I've heard that Joe has been taking advice from Hunter and Hunter's one of his most supporters that is saying, don't drop out.
00:46:56.000I also think no one wants to go out in a moment of weakness, right?
00:47:01.000Like, I assume on some level they just want to stay in power because of the benefits and the influence, but also, I doubt that any of them wanted to be like, your dad was so senile and none of you would say anything.
00:47:12.000Like, they want it to be on their terms, if at all, and really on their terms is four years from now.
00:47:17.000So you're saying they could potentially be trying to prop him up a little bit right now by doing these, like he did this speech yesterday, you know, where I'm sure he was practicing all day for it, you know, after the naps and such, where he comes out and, you know, tries to, you know, in his orange makeup.
00:47:32.000And the rally right afterwards in North Carolina, right?
00:47:35.000And his campaign pointed to that, saying, oh, well, he was great then, so obviously it's crazy to even talk about the debate.
00:47:42.000But the reality is that when you're the president of the United States, the leader of any country, you are probably going to be under a tremendous amount of pressure.
00:47:49.000And there are probably a lot of moments where you are functioning on very little sleep, under a lot of stress, with a lot of personal issues going on, and you have to be performing at As close to the best as you can.
00:48:01.000And if that was Joe Biden's best, then I think all Democrats should sue their party because this is a terrible choice.
00:48:06.000I think it was the worst debate performance of all time in American history.
00:48:11.000I'm sure there are some worse debates on the presidential debate, presidential debate.
00:48:15.000Televised presidential debate, I should clarify.
00:48:17.000I mean, it was pretty rough, but I think the reality is that they, I don't think, I think Biden wants to stay in office.
00:48:24.000I think his family wants him to stay in office.
00:48:26.000I think his advisors, if they had been smart, would have advised him to be a one-term president two years ago.
00:48:31.000And they're all going to have to go down with this ship because there's, I just really don't think that they will, you know, gracefully exit.
00:48:39.000And there were a lot of states saying it's too late.
00:48:44.000Yeah, but Biden, I think the only reason that Biden wants to continue on, if he does want to continue on, which I think, I don't think that he does, that's just what I would say, but he can't, he doesn't want to be remembered as a one-term president because every one-term president that comes to mind, you know, you think of them as a failure.
00:49:00.000He assured when he was running in 2020 that he was going to be a one-term president because he could honorably step aside for the next generation of Democratic leadership, which was presumably female and of color.
00:49:10.000And so theoretically, they have this moment this whole time to say, oh, no, no, we were always going to be a one-term president.
00:49:16.000Instead, they launched his reelection campaign.
00:49:17.000Somebody at some point intervened and said, nope, that's not what we're doing.
00:49:52.000He's going to absorb the sins of the Democratic Party so they could reverse Trump's... They knew reversing Trump policy was going to cause damage to the country.
00:50:01.000They didn't want to absorb all that damage.
00:50:04.000So they send in Joe Biden, who's old and weak, have him do all of the policies that destroy everything, and they get him out.
00:50:11.000Then they bring in somebody else like Newsom.
00:50:13.000Yeah, I think they wanted to trust him and now they know they can't.
00:50:15.000And that's why they're letting their hounds loose.
00:50:17.000And I mean, like Anderson Cooper and Jake Tapper.
00:50:36.000Even if he's on the ballot, you said he's on the ballot in a lot of states already, I think even if he wins or gets that, then the DNC superdelegates can still say, we choose Nick Sorter.
00:50:45.000Isn't that sort of what they did to Bernie in 2016?
00:51:21.000I pray that my friends that consider themselves Democrats understand the danger of allowing a relatively small group of people to just select your candidate.
00:51:28.000There's nothing democratic about the Democratic Party.
00:51:34.000Literally ironic that they would call themselves democratic and work in such a fascistic way that they choose the candidate for you, even though you vote for somebody else.
00:51:42.000That's what I'm wondering is, right, so we've gone through all these names about who would replace Biden, but with Gen Z supporting, like, just being so anti-Israel, would there be any Democrat that could even have a chance?
00:51:53.000Like, I think that's something we haven't talked about.
00:51:55.000It's got to be somebody that hasn't talked about the issue, right?
00:51:57.000And I think, you know, Trump has done pretty good at kind of staying away from that issue for the most part.
00:52:01.000You know, he said a little bit more at the debate, but it was just so overshadowed by everything else that was going on with Biden that nobody's really talking about it.
00:52:10.000Does anybody even know what Gavin Newsom stance on maybe he put out a probably put out a supportive tweet for Israel at one point, but he hasn't been engaged in a lot of Democrats.
00:52:49.000Some of the biggest ones were in California, which means that Gavin Newsom had to respond
00:52:54.000to them, which I'm sure means that there are progressive activists that think he's
00:52:57.000awful and in bed with Israel and whatever else.
00:53:01.000This is something that I think there is not an easy way for anyone to navigate away from
00:53:05.000and I think ultimately that's why the DNC will rely on scaring people, right?
00:53:11.000You can't let Trump be the one to pick the next Supreme Court nomination.
00:53:15.000I saw a post on social media where this girl saying, I don't care if he's in a coma, I'm voting for Biden because it's about the staff that's behind him.
00:53:22.000And at that point, there's no reason to bring in a new face and trying to have to acclimate all the voters to him.
00:53:28.000If you just believe Biden's going to be there sort of in presence only and that you're voting for the staff, you don't need them to swap out a candidate because you don't believe in it anyways.
00:53:38.000I can't believe we're at that point where there are legitimately people that are being like, yeah, well, we don't know who's running the country, but you know, they're probably decent people.
00:53:46.000I mean, they don't know and they don't seem to care.
00:53:51.000They've been told to hate Donald Trump, so they're going to continue hating Donald Trump.
00:55:12.000The way the betting markets work is that you'll go to the betting market, it'll say, chance for Joe Biden to drop out 13 cents, or like, predict it does this.
00:55:53.000So if you bought when it was at 11 cents on June 25th, and it's kind of funny because anybody paying attention like we were, anybody who watches this show, knew the debate was going to be bad.
00:56:04.000Imagine if you were like, all right, I'll buy a thousand shares at 11 cents.
00:56:07.000Then the debate happened and it jumped to 20 cents.
00:56:15.000The campaign co-chair coming out today, Jim Clyburn coming out, and then floating the idea of Kamala Harris being at the top of the ticket at this point.
00:57:20.000I don't know if you guys, were you guys just shocked back the moment?
00:57:23.000On this show, the first word out of his mouth, everyone went, whoa!
00:57:27.000I was flipping back and forth from you guys and Luke Rutkowski's show, but I had to like, keep evolving, because I wanted to just lock into the debate itself, and God, the moment his voice, it was just...
00:57:43.000You know, they came out and they started... He's had this cold for like six or seven months.
00:57:46.000I mean, if you heard him when he was speaking to the press in Paris during the D-Day remembrance or ceremonies, you know, he had a really raspy, gravelly voice that's been going on for a little while.
00:57:58.000And at the time they were like, how dare you say that?
00:58:01.000That's fake information that there's anything wrong with his voice.
00:58:04.000I mean, the White House, you know, they are there to serve Joe Biden, so the fact that they're lying to the American public to make him look better is not super surprising.
00:58:14.000But then it was the media just parroted all the same information.
00:58:16.000There was no one saying like, no, no, I know that I heard that his voice is bad.
00:58:20.000I mean, one of the problems with him on stage the second he started talking is that we had this sort of thought that, Well, maybe it's just like 90 minutes and he'll pull together and he'll drink the Gatorade and whatever else they give him and he'll really come out strong and it was weak from the get-go.
00:58:36.000The bar was so low because, you know, honestly, we, or I, I won't put you guys into it, but I set the bar really, really low based on just, you know, tweeting about it and being like, you know, there's just no way this guy's gonna, this is gonna be, you know, the debate of the century if you're a Trump fan and it's like, You know, and then coming into it, I'm like, OK, well, he just has to not be a corpse and he's going to claim victory because that's all that anybody expected.
00:59:56.000And he really doesn't do that many interviews.
00:59:58.000So they were falling in line with the things they were being told.
01:00:01.000And I think that's sort of what got them into this mess.
01:00:04.000I think there are insiders who know how bad it is and they were sort of hoping everyone would turn a blind eye, but it was so undeniable.
01:00:09.000And then everyone, including the voters, but a lot of people in the media, they believe that if the White House says Joe Biden's fine, he's fine.
01:00:18.000I still think Dana Bash and Jake Tapper were there to save him.
01:00:22.000I think they were still on his team, but it was so bad that they couldn't even do anything about it.
01:00:26.000I mean, you saw Dana Bash at points, I don't know if you guys saw this video or not, but, you know, there are times where she's on camera, like, pointing to get his attention to be like, look over here, Jake's asking a question.
01:00:37.000And, you know, so they were actively trying.
01:00:41.000They're professional news people, so they have a bit of a poker face, but there was a level of like, I don't think it was a comfortable position to be in, and I think that was apparent to everyone.
01:00:50.000We talked about last night on the show when Joe Biden was trying to get off the stage after the debate.
01:01:01.000When he couldn't bend his knees and his wife had to hold his hand to get him down one step.
01:01:06.000I mean, I think the reality is, is there anything that Joe Biden could do in the next three weeks to really win back the confidence that he has shaken in the American people?
01:01:13.000If I see him going for a jog and like talking normal, yeah.
01:02:08.000Oh, dude, there's so many videos of Biden trying to golf, and it's hilariously bad.
01:02:14.000We watch Leftist Freaking Out when Trump was elected in 2016, but Trump, when he needs a lift, watches Joe Biden golfing, like, just to laugh at him.
01:03:18.000I think he's going to be, you know, vindictive.
01:03:21.000And they keep throwing around, they're like, he keeps saying revenge, he keeps saying vindictive, whatever else.
01:03:27.000They use that as a reason that we have to keep Trump out, but why wouldn't you be?
01:03:30.000I can't remember who tweeted, they said, I think it was Arne McIntyre, Lord give me the Trump the leftists have made up in their delusional minds.
01:03:38.000It scares me if the way he does talk about, I mean, he doesn't obsessively talk about, I'm going to destroy the deep state and scatter it to the winds.
01:04:24.000That's why Orrin was like, Lord, give me!
01:04:26.000Trump they've made up in their delusional And it's the people in the media that are making it up.
01:04:30.000Trump's going to hire people like Bolton again, and we're going to get, in my opinion, a marginally good second term from Trump that will improve things in areas that we like, and there will be negative effects of his presidency, I'm sure.
01:04:42.000It's absurd to think he's going to walk in with a golden ticket, a golden brush, and everything's perfect.
01:04:47.000We're going to have some bad foreign policy, but I think we're going to have slightly better foreign policy.
01:04:51.000We're going to move towards peace slightly away from war.
01:04:54.000We're going to see better trade agreements.
01:04:56.000We're going to see some inflation in some areas.
01:04:57.000The tariffs to start will probably be not so fun for people, but it will start to heal in a lot of ways.
01:05:02.000It is going to be a mixed bag, as it always would have been, because reform takes time.
01:05:06.000But Trump's going to give us incremental gains that we want to see.
01:05:09.000I get the feeling that the Empire, and when I say that, I mean the British Empire, it's the only empire left.
01:05:28.000It's like a conglomeration at this point of God knows what.
01:05:30.000But I don't think they expected BRICS to do what it's doing.
01:05:33.000I don't think they expected it to take off like it's taking off.
01:05:34.000And I think they're desperate to solve this problem because it looks like they could lose and that the British Empire could be disseminated.
01:05:42.000No, but the British Empire was basically absorbed into the US Empire.
01:07:21.000They're not going to get their $800 billion a year if they're not spending it on this stuff.
01:07:25.000And the message is we are the world's police force for this idea of peacekeeper, right?
01:07:30.000Everywhere needs us all the time, so we have to do this no matter what.
01:07:32.000And even when we're funding every side of a conflict, it's important that we have troops somewhere else.
01:07:37.000I mean, one of the things that bothered me today that Corinne Jean-Pierre said was, you know, a reporter was pressing her about the debate and some of the stuff that Biden had clearly lied about on stage.
01:08:04.000And I think that's one of the questions was why do we have military bases everywhere?
01:08:07.000Like, do we really need to be there for the good of America?
01:08:10.000I mean, meaning the American people or for the good of the government and the industries that props up by having them there?
01:08:18.000To me, those are actually different things now.
01:08:19.000That's a good question, because, I mean, what the Nazis did was pretty terrifying from my perspective right now is when I'm looking at what the Japanese Empire did.
01:08:27.000That blitzkrieg they did through the Pacific, the annihilation of the Pacific American fleet, the conquest of the Philippines, all these crazy things that happened really fast, too.
01:08:36.000So, like, not having any defensive military capacity globally could allow for a nasty global provocation.
01:08:46.000It is not the worst thing to have defensive structures all over the place, but at the same time, what's it costing us?
01:09:04.000it. And that's his case for like maintaining our current military industrial complex, you know,
01:09:09.000because it will China step in? Will Russia? You just mentioned bricks and the rise of that.
01:09:13.000The Chinese are very coordinated. I see a lot of videos out of China. I don't know what's real and
01:09:17.000what's not a lot of times, but like the way they move together. I think that's intentional.
01:09:21.000And they want it. They want you to see these guys like you see them all climbing up the hill,
01:09:25.000like a big line, the centipede of all these men just like left, right, left, right, left.
01:09:29.000Like they are arming themselves for war right now.
01:09:31.000They are training their citizenry for war right now.
01:09:34.000Whether or not they're going to war is to be seen, but they're getting ready for war.
01:09:37.000And I mean, they are on like a civilian level, like they're just pushing these people to coordinate.
01:09:42.000Even the kids, the way they bounce basketballs and then jump to the right and bounce the basketball and jump to the right, like they're training these kids to become soldiers.
01:09:50.000That would be my next guess, is that the Chinese would go in and try and become the military police.
01:10:19.000But ultimately, it seems like we put more effort into sort of keeping other countries stable than we do about doing the basics, aka locking our front door, aka closing our own border.
01:10:30.000I mean, this is one of the most egregious parts of the Biden administration, which is that they just completely lie about this all the time.
01:10:36.000You know, Biden came in and took down all these Trump policies and then quietly rolled them back out when he just could not get illegal immigration under control.
01:10:44.000And even with the deals they're striking, they're trying to make it like there's a minimum level of illegal immigration.
01:10:51.000And so, you know, I think all of this has to come back to, like, are we doing – is the government functioning in an optimal way to serve the American people?
01:10:59.000And whether that's by having military bases that we can deploy our troops to.
01:11:03.000In who knows where, or are we making sure their communities are safe by protecting our borders and being sure of who's in the country?
01:11:10.000You know, that has to be the priority before we say, well, what are we going to do about the rest of the globe?
01:11:14.000Like, we have to have a loyalty to our own people first.
01:11:17.000And I think that's what the Biden administration in particular doesn't want to talk about.
01:11:21.000They talk about our obligations to everyone else, but not to our own citizens.
01:11:26.000I'm very concerned with a conflict with Mexico, to be honest.
01:11:28.000Like, I hear people mention it from time to time that we would go to war with Mexico.
01:11:31.000Sounds insane because we've been such a dominating force, but as a proxy?
01:11:35.000Like, the Chinese and the Russians would use the Mexican front as a proxy, and the cartels may play a ball if they get pissed off enough at the American pressure to try and stop the drugs from coming, or the human trafficking from coming across.
01:11:46.000And I mean, what a perfect opportunity to proxy and annihilate our country from the South through Mexico.
01:11:52.000I would rather go to war with Mexico to make sure our border was secure and to stop human trafficking and to stop the flow of illegal drugs than continue to send troops and, you know, not officially send troops overseas and send billions of dollars to other countries where we fight these pretend wars where we pretend like we're not doing anything and we just lie to the public all the time.
01:12:07.000I'd much rather— I mean, there is something honorable in the fact that you would be defending something that impacts literally American communities as opposed to saying, oh, we're not doing anything.
01:12:15.000We're just pouring all of our money over there and we're funding that side and we're getting these people and we're not sending troops.
01:12:19.000We're just going to put them on a ship outside of this conflict.
01:12:21.000I mean, that is more—that's so ridiculous to me in comparison to saying, like, look, we have a border.
01:13:07.000It was a while ago where somebody was like, well, if Trump gets elected, this is how the border is going to look like with a moat with alligators in it.
01:13:13.000And I'm like, you know, everybody's like, yeah, this sounds great.
01:14:24.000It started decades ago and eventually it became so bad that you're seeing Political parties be elected in European countries where they're saying, hey, we don't think this is OK.
01:14:36.000We think that we should cap migration.
01:14:38.000We think that we should have a strong national identity that says this is something worth preserving.
01:14:42.000And we can't just move in a new people because that's really the argument with illegal migration in the US, which is that Democrats will say, oh, yeah, the birth rate is collapsing and Americans aren't having their own children.
01:14:52.000But it's OK because we could just bring in a bunch of people from somewhere else like anyone on the globe is interchangeable.
01:15:27.000So this is from the other day, this is NPR.org, key takeaways from France's election round one, where the far right prevails.
01:15:34.000Yeah, there was rioting, like crazy rioting from Islamists and leftists, because French people who want their nation, they believe in the French national identity, are starting to take back their country.
01:15:48.000They're no longer just going to let it be given away.
01:15:50.000The big problem, outside of all of this, fertility.
01:15:54.000Outside of all the politics of it is fertility.
01:15:57.000French people aren't having enough kids.
01:15:58.000People in the United States aren't having enough kids.
01:16:07.000You have to have someone to pass down your unique cultural traditions to, right?
01:16:10.000But there would be another way, like, look, there are ways to incentivize people to have children rather than just, you know, shipping people in.
01:16:17.000I mean, it's costing a lot more to support these new people that are coming in than to financially support people to have babies, if that's the route you want to go.
01:16:25.000Can I just, I just want to, I want to read this.
01:16:27.000The results from the first round Sunday were National Rally earned 33.15.
01:16:30.000The New Popular Front Alliance of center-left socialists, greens and far-left, 28.14.
01:16:50.000The polarization in France is not going to lead to good things.
01:16:56.000People who are French and love France and want to see it restored to the beauty of what it was under this ideal French culture, they are up against people who are not citizens and far leftists who want to see the West torn down.
01:17:11.000What do you think the end result is going to be?
01:17:16.000Well, we already knew at this point that, and everybody sort of predicted that, I don't know if you saw the videos and such of them boarding up windows in Paris before the results even came out.
01:17:24.000So we already knew that, but how far are they going to take something like that?
01:18:11.000I'm not sure exactly how or what, but people are, obviously, the majority, or I don't know if the majority is the right word, but the plurality, is that the right word?
01:18:21.000Thirty-some percent, the most of any of them, seem to support this rhetoric.
01:18:27.000You mentioned that you can incentivize people to have children and you see this especially in Eastern Europe.
01:18:33.000There are a couple of different countries that will say – I think Hungary is one of them where they're saying you don't have to pay income tax if you have a certain number of children.
01:18:42.000But there's a couple of them that are doing this because they say we believe in helping our people have their own family.
01:18:48.000Rather than saying, hey, it's okay if our native-born population goes away because we'll just bring in whoever, you know, happens to want to come across the border.
01:18:58.000And I think this is sort of reflective of the conversation that's happening in France.
01:19:02.000Like NPR was reporting on this and one of the things they pointed out was, you know, you'll see a lot of especially young men who are saying, I feel like France doesn't have a place for me anymore and they feel like this is my country and I should be treated differently than I am right now where I'm told that, you know, I'm lowest priority.
01:19:17.000And so one of the policies that they're talking about is that, you know, social safety nets, any sort of social programming should be open to French citizens first over immigrants.
01:19:27.000The fact that it's an extreme idea is upsetting.
01:19:30.000You know, it is one thing if you're a country that says we want to offer aid or we want to be compassionate, you know, you don't want to treat people who are different than you badly.
01:19:37.000On the other hand, like if you're a taxpayer and you pay into a social program that's supposed to benefit you, the idea that someone who is not paying into it, it takes priority over you is obviously offensive.
01:19:46.000And it's the most Christian thing is to take care of yourself before you try to take care of someone else.
01:19:52.000Take the plank out of your own eye before you try and take the speck of dust out of your neighbor's eye or your brother's eye or whatever.
01:19:57.000Put your own air mask on before you try and secure the mask of the person next to you.
01:20:02.000You have to protect the citizens of the country.
01:21:16.000So what's a little bit worrying, and I won't say too much more about this, but like what worries me about these numbers is you still have the majority of people, you know, because only 33% are the ones that are kind of rebuking these policies.
01:21:55.000I think a lot of it comes from ignorance, too, because if you don't know how dangerous it is to allow foreigners en masse into your country in an unmitigated migration, then you might just be like, we got to help everybody.
01:22:04.000And so it's like this form of ignorance.
01:22:27.000Landowners made sense when we had small communities and people were mostly farming.
01:22:31.000But then we got to the, with industrialization and offices, people now rent apartments.
01:22:36.000They don't intend to own something, they want to move somewhere later.
01:22:38.000There's a lot, you know, this is frowned upon by the left almost all the time, but there is a reason to rent.
01:22:44.000You're younger, you want to live in the city for a little bit, and then you don't want to spend a lot of money, you don't want to put in a big down payment, you want to work a job, move up, save money, and then get a down payment to buy a house in the suburbs, to have a family, these things can make sense.
01:22:55.000But I think we need some kind of minor hurdle that keeps out disinterested people.
01:23:01.000Vivek talks about civics tests, like high school civics tests.
01:23:04.000I think selective service is the perfect option.
01:23:06.000In order to vote, you sign up for Selective Service, and in response, they mail you your voter card.
01:23:25.000But if you want a say in how we have wars and who gets sent to war, right now, understand this, men are forced to sign up for Selective Service, and women overwhelmingly are voting for war.
01:24:34.000So, a year and a half ago, Vivek came on the Cultural Podcast, and that was his idea, that he said he was thinking about, but he wasn't sure if it's what he wants to do, and then later said he's moved away from that, and he's considered some kind of civics test.
01:25:24.000I'll take civics tests or I'll sign up for whatever.
01:25:27.000It's people who don't like America, but also want to say in what's going on who would have an objection to it, in my opinion.
01:25:33.000I think there's a lot of people that want to serve the country, a lot of people that are terrified of getting shipped off overseas for some, like Vietnam all over again, a draft to go send people to a meat grinder.
01:25:41.000But even if it's not military service, right?
01:25:43.000Like volunteering, running for office, you know, working, you know, in public schools so that you can help, you know, other American citizens get a good education, things like that.
01:25:52.000Service doesn't have to be military, hypothetically.
01:25:54.000And it'd be a lot better than just complaining online.
01:26:01.000I know, but the people that aren't making money doing it, that are just doing it and going to a job they hate and then complaining out of fear.
01:26:08.000Like, it's one thing, like, complaining because there's a problem and, like, suggesting solutions.
01:26:40.000You could do things in service of your country that don't have to be necessarily – don't have to be deploying.
01:26:45.000I know typically when we say you serve the country, we mean military and again, no problem if that's the way you want to do it.
01:26:50.000But I think the question comes down to do we have young people who feel as though they want to make a difference in their nation or community?
01:26:57.000I think so many of them want to talk about America as though it's something that's happening over there without realizing that they could actively be a part of it.
01:27:05.000Yeah, if you're doing it right, I think a lot of people are excited because we do need a reinvestiture in our infrastructure.
01:27:40.000And the 800 military bases we were just talking about.
01:27:43.000Yeah, look, you know, sure we could fix our roads and fix the plumbing and build new housing and schools and libraries, but There are Russians in Ukraine that I just plumb don't like.
01:27:58.000I mean, Russia and Alaska are like, I don't know, a hundred miles away from each other, so like an invasion from the north, we would need strong rails to get from the east coast to the west coast in six hours.
01:28:09.000We need high-speed rails to get our troops across the country just for national defense.
01:28:13.000I prefer you to write to Pete Buttigieg, who's really managing all of this super well.
01:29:09.000Well, there's like a... It's not the money!
01:29:11.000No, it's more of an ignorance problem because I think people don't understand the materials that we would use.
01:29:15.000We'd use new materials like graphene instead of iron, you know, for our railways.
01:29:20.000We'd have like really lightweight, strong rails that would last us 60 years and wouldn't warp.
01:29:26.000But once people figure out how, then they get excited and they realize they can.
01:29:31.000It's just a matter of, I guess, education about how to do it and then incentivizing people to actually do it by using taxpayer dollars or by subsidizing the private sector and getting industry to go ahead and start building.
01:29:42.000I'd love to see that high-speed rail out of California get finished.
01:29:44.000I don't know much about it, to be honest.
01:29:47.000Well, I think it's a total crap show, and it always has been.
01:29:52.000It's how many tens of billions of dollars over budget at this point?
01:30:35.000I'm not, like, I wish I was being totally hyperbolic, but again, you see that, like, this stereotype of it's like, oh, people from Mexico are crossing the southern border.
01:30:43.000Yes, that does happen, but the majority of people are not.
01:30:45.000They're from other South American countries or even China.
01:30:48.000That they're like, hey, I think I know how to get in there.
01:31:44.000That's a problem, because states run out of money really quick.
01:31:46.000But if we use the Federal Reserve to print $3 trillion, pay it forward, maybe in eight years that $3 trillion is going to be worth $35 trillion in value because of the amount of cost reduction and things.
01:31:59.000That might be a viable investment that we could actually get done.
01:32:02.000The white pill here is Elon's trying to just put trains on roads via his, uh, the actual semi, the Tesla semi.
01:32:08.000And because they're autonomous, you'd have one driver for like 10 Tesla semis, virtually a train on our existing roadways.
01:32:16.000So he's, I mean, he's rejecting rails.
01:32:18.000We're far away from that solution, but it is coming.
01:32:22.000Uh, as much as I love my Tesla, ah, dude, this thing has nearly killed me several times.
01:32:57.000And it is only because I jammed the wheel as hard as I could to the left that I was inches away from hitting this car.
01:33:03.000And then it was like, brrp, brrp, brrp, and I was like, Autopilot's engaged, what happened?
01:33:06.000And I was like, you were gonna hit that car?
01:33:09.000There was a report like two weeks ago from California of this Tesla in Autopilot crashing into a cop car.
01:33:15.000I mean like it's it's I'm happy if you guys want to like I think technology sometimes you have to have people try it and that's sort of the function that Tesla owners are in right now they're trying out the self-driving mode but it's it's not a reliable source right now the other part is like it's coming and I'm assuming this is a newer coming but it also is another infrastructure issue like we talk about it right now with EVs uh I think it's uh Wyoming banned the sale of EVs because they're like look The issue is that we don't have charging ports in enough places and it's causing all kinds of issues and we don't have the money to fund that.
01:33:45.000The other part is, on top of that, that if a Tesla gets into an accident and its battery catches on fire, you can't just spray water on it, which conducts electricity, to put the fire out.
01:33:55.000So then you have to equip every single fire truck and first responder with, I think it's like a powder that you throw on these kinds of batteries.
01:35:28.000I'd like to see how much of that is administrative costs.
01:35:30.000We're gonna go to Super Chats, so if you haven't already, would you kindly smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, head over to TimCast.com, click join us to become a member and support our work directly.
01:35:39.000We're gonna have a members-only, uncensored show coming up for you tonight.
01:35:44.000We've got some silly stories for you that you're gonna rather enjoy, and we'll have a good laugh, because we will not be having one tomorrow, as we will be taking off for the holiday weekend, so this will be, we're only gonna have two this week, but we'll read your Super Chats right now.
01:38:15.000Businesses will fly a Dutch flag with open on it.
01:38:18.000And I'm like, is that related to like mercantilism from like back in the days of the Dutch flag would fly and people knew there was a trading post or something?
01:38:25.000There was a Dutch market where I grew up, like a really small store run by the daughter of Dutch immigrants and they always had it and she was like, see, it makes sense here.
01:38:35.000Maybe I'm just making something up, but.
01:38:38.000Dutch mercantilism in the colonies and so they would fly the Dutch flag and people would know it's a trading post and now all the businesses fly a Dutch flag that says open on the flag so people know there's business there.
01:39:06.000How do people with Biden's campaign basically in the gutter, does Trump still need to be strategic with his VP pick, or does he have leeway now to pick Vivek or Tulsi?
01:39:15.000He hasn't got leeway, but I think he still should be strategic.
01:41:00.000There is no way that he and David Pakman and the Krasensteins are not aware that what they're saying is false.
01:41:07.000An example I'd like to give in reference to David Pakman is when, I believe it was, Ted Cruz was on Meet the Press, and they asked him, do you really believe that Ukraine interfered in the election to help Hillary Clinton?
01:41:19.000And Ted Cruz was like, It was in the New York Times.
01:41:23.000And then you hear a producer start laughing.
01:41:25.000And David Pakman, in his video, is like, I can't believe this guy.
01:42:53.000There's no way you follow Elon Musk, you understand the arguments he's made, and the reasons for his actions, and then come out on the other side of it.
01:43:01.000Like, when things attack Elon, they come to his defense.
01:43:05.000The argument being like, well, he supported their free speech.
01:43:33.000They've known the whole time, but they don't want to admit it because they'll lose access.
01:43:37.000So when we were pointing out all of these videos of Biden stumbling and bumbling and saying nonsense words, the media called them cheap fakes.
01:43:44.000Because they were worried they would lose access to the White House.
01:43:55.000Yeah, I think you have, you know, people say all the time, it's like, oh, well, somebody, uh, somebody like, you know, I know I brought up Harry Sisson a couple times tonight, but he's been in the news a lot.
01:44:03.000Harry is not, I, I, look, I've, I've known Harry for over a year now.
01:44:07.000He is not a stupid person, but he is saying what is going to, what his, number one, what his base wants to hear, and number two, what the, the, the regime wants to hear.
01:44:22.000Because every time somebody like us attacks him, every time I bring up his name on a show like this, his name ID goes up, his TikTok grows.
01:44:31.000Fox News was pushing his tweets out yesterday.
01:44:56.000Yeah, I can see that as a threat behind the scenes, that they're like, look, Joe, we're going public with everything, unless you step aside.
01:45:01.000So they're using it as like a bargaining chip at this point, where you step aside.
01:45:04.000Gabriel Lopez says, life extension is not happening.
01:45:07.000We have prevented people from dying earlier, but not extended life in any way.
01:45:10.000Genesis 6.3, God, right before the flood, God put a cap of 120 years on us.
01:45:16.000Well, my understanding, and this is cursory scientific review, is that the average human being has a potential lifespan of 190 years before absolute collapse.
01:45:29.000However, this would require, like, perfect cellular regeneration in line with, like,
01:46:38.000And the challenge for the most part for older people The reason why older people get to the point where they say they want to die is not because they're in physical pain.
01:46:52.000So, you know, people really don't understand the... I don't think people think deeply about culture shock and how important it is to understand.
01:47:00.000If you today teleported 50 years into the past, it would be very, very hard for you to navigate that world.
01:47:11.000Now, we understand TV and news and radio and all that stuff, but you're going to be like, I am not used to having to ask someone to meet me at a location, using a map, having to memorize 30 phone numbers.
01:50:03.000If there's 2 million in circulation and you raise a million you've raised 50% of the value of so like it's it's the percentage of value of the money not the actual dollar amount and people tell you that they raised more dollars but that doesn't mean that the dollars were more valuable and that's when people start to realize that value is actually a percentage and not an actual a number or then a nominal thing that then they'll start to understand that they're lying to being lied to
01:50:49.000Well, I know we were talking about this a little bit earlier where I don't think it's linear.
01:50:52.000I think it were to happen where the line of succession comes in when, let's say, you know, the third in line would end up being president of the United States if the president and the vice president both died at the same time or something like that.
01:51:41.000Yeah, that's a great point, because everybody right now, all this red wave talk that you keep hearing on X, that's exactly what... I mean, you don't want people to feel... Actually, Charlie Kirk, I think, tweeted it out today.
01:52:10.000If you feel like the presidency is locked in, start paying a ton of attention to your congressional races and your Senate races, especially if you live in.
01:52:18.000A state like Montana, where it's right on the edge of potentially flipping, pay attention to your state and local races.
01:52:22.000If you feel like everything's locked up, you know you're going to go vote, now's the time to research the other candidates that could really impact your life in the legislature that you have to abide by.
01:52:32.000How do they swap Biden out without affecting the ballots?
01:52:35.000I mean, isn't Biden already on the ballot in a bunch of these states?
01:52:38.000So if they were to switch him out, then the Democrats can't win.
01:52:42.000But there's no way they'll actually allow that to happen, though, because it's the same thing in Ohio.
01:52:45.000Like, technically, for the longest time, Biden wasn't actually going to be able to appear on the ballot in Ohio because they weren't going to meet the deadline for him to be on the ballot.
01:52:56.000And of course, they pull some strings and change it.
01:52:59.000I don't think they're going to let that be a hurdle.
01:53:00.000So Carlos Mucha says, fun fact, Joe Biden's birth in 1942 was closer in time to Sherman's burning of Atlanta in 1864 than to the presidential debate in Atlanta this year.
01:53:58.000I mean, they did have that write-in Biden campaign in New Hampshire this year when the DNC was like, forget you, New Hampshire.
01:54:05.000South Carolina is going to go first for the primary.
01:54:07.000So maybe, you know, they're going to rely on voters to be organized enough to write in Biden and states or whoever they would pick in states where Biden's not on the ticket.
01:54:16.000I think it's going to default to Joe Biden stays on the ticket and they just have to see this mess through.
01:54:20.000I don't think the media would be working so hard to tear down Joe Biden right now if there wasn't any way to have a backup.
01:54:26.000I mean, they're not doing this, you know... But that makes them think that they're logical and that they have thought about this carefully and made a forward.
01:54:34.000I mean, most of them were saying Joe Biden was totally fine until they... Because they were told to!
01:55:53.000You know, I'd vote for whichever one would appoint Captain Crunch as their... as their... Commander-in-Chief?
01:56:01.000No, no, Chief of... Department of Defense.
01:56:06.000Well, because this is a guy who's gonna, when we send him overseas to our enemies, he's gonna slice up the roofs of their mouths and, you know, cause some real damage.
01:57:36.000I don't know if you guys got this newsletter on your phone, but it was the Wall Street Journal was like, I can't remember what it was, but basically like diversity isn't making us money.
01:57:47.000But, you know, talking about Kamala and stuff, I saw this poll on earlier and, you know, usually, you know, the Twitter poll, there's not much to it.
01:57:55.000I can hit whatever option and it's not gonna change my life.
01:57:57.000But I see somebody saying, would you rather have Joe Biden or Kamala Harris?
01:58:00.000I still, you know, for a year now, I have not been able to answer that question.
01:59:17.000The industry is in serious trouble and the worst part is the Olympics are coming up.
01:59:21.000So if the core skateboard community is not involved and people aren't investing, then it's going to get snatched up by woke corporations and turned into some creepy nonsense that's going to target your kids.
01:59:32.000What is your take on why it's been falling apart?
01:59:39.000I think that, well, there's a lot of reasons.
01:59:42.000One big one is that skateboarders I feel like the people who are good people who skateboard are interested in having a family and being responsible, and once they do, they shift their focus into home responsibility.
02:00:00.000What that leaves, then, the people who are the loudest in the forums, at the skate events, at the skate shops, are people who are less likely to have jobs, less likely to have families, and they're more likely to be woke.
02:00:16.000Woke people make young people not want to skateboard.
02:00:21.000So that's what we're trying to do with with Boonies and with like the Skatepark Project and Martinsburg and all the stuff is be family-friendly and inviting to parents to bring their kids.
02:00:30.000But when you've got, you know, degenerate filth, drug addiction, heroin needles, and angry and aggressive 40-year-olds telling people to F off and stay away from their space, Parents ain't gonna bring their kids around.
02:00:43.000If kids do not engage in, I'll start here.
02:00:47.000If kids don't skateboard, skateboarding dies in 10 years.
02:00:50.000Right now, the majority of skateboarders in general are over the age of 30.
02:00:56.000So if you're out there and you like skateboarding and you're a pro skateboarder,
02:00:59.000you gotta be doing everything you can to target young teenagers and convince them
02:01:05.000to start skating and tell parents to get their kids skateboards so that those kids
02:01:08.000Get involved, grow up skating, invest in the culture, and help build and create a
02:01:12.000Because children are the future, no question, and I feel like most people don't get this.
02:01:17.000Especially when you have an industry, and millennials in general, dominated by people who don't have families, don't have kids, and don't care.
02:01:23.000What you end up with is, a really good example is what's going on in Martinsburg, with our attempts to build a skate park.
02:01:29.000The older guys, who have been there for 10 years, are telling people to F off and get out.
02:01:35.000What's a parent gonna do when they pull up and they say, I got my kid a skateboard, I wanna teach him how to skateboard, and you got a bunch of angry, old, politically charged people who are saying, it's our spot, we're the sheriff, get the F out.
02:01:46.000They're going to say, okay, this is not the sport we want to have our kids involved in.
02:01:49.000So I go to the city, I go to the community and say, we should have a community park, beautification, we should have trees and flowers and planters.
02:02:57.000Skateboarding is doing the same thing now as scooting.
02:02:59.000Scooting is popular among younger people.
02:03:01.000It's becoming more and more prominent.
02:03:03.000The scooter kids are laughing and having fun and doing their thing, and they're expanding and rising.
02:03:08.000And skateboarders are jaded, angry old men who think they're too cool for everybody else.
02:03:15.000I was thinking that also, like, you see also that the people that aren't happy are the loudest, also in football, baseball, and in basketball, and even in soccer, football.
02:03:26.000But there's so much money being pumped through those organizations that there's still an incentive for people to go try.
02:03:34.000We gotta go to the Members Only Show, so smash that like button, subscribe to this channel, share the show with your friends, head over to TimCast.com, click join us, become a member, we're gonna have that Members Only Show coming up here in just a minute, and as a member you help support all of our endeavors, which includes...
02:03:48.000Uh, trying to, uh, build local skate parks and, uh, build culture that will influence young people and be a positive, uh, force.
02:03:55.000Uh, go to boonieshq on Instagram if you want to watch me attempt to drop in on the death wall.
02:04:13.000And I'll tell you, the goal with Boonies is we want to be PG-13.
02:04:17.000We want to make content that is family-friendly, is welcoming to skateboarders of all levels, that parents will feel good that their kids are watching.
02:04:24.000They're going to say, oh, that's funny and silly, a little rough around the edges, but nothing too bad.
02:04:29.000And then the older crowd is going to be like, that's pro skateboarding at its best.
02:04:33.000We don't want to do what these other gatekeepers are doing and be super... Look, with all due respect to a lot of the pros that are nice, that we're friends with, they produce content where it's like, uh, I'm gonna upload a video to YouTube of my nollie 360 flip, uh, you know, uh, nollie 360 flip frontside nose grind 180 out.
