Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - Trump WINS, Sentencing POSTPONED In NYC Conviction Over SCOTUS Ruling w-Nick Sortor | Timcast IRL

00:00:00.000 A major victory for Donald Trump.

00:00:14.000 Earlier today, we learned that the prosecution in the Hush Money case would not oppose his efforts to postpone the sentencing.

00:00:21.000 The courts have now agreed the sentencing in the Hush Money case is postponed until September because of the Supreme Court ruling on immunity.

00:00:29.000 Major victory for Trump.

00:00:31.000 We'll see where that leads, so this won't affect the RNC.

00:00:33.000 And then, of course, oh boy.

00:00:35.000 There is a lot of news about Joe Biden.

00:00:38.000 Other Democrats are now calling for him openly to step down.

00:00:41.000 Leaked internal polling has come out showing that Biden is underwater everywhere.

00:00:46.000 And it's looking like the electoral map is around, what, like 330 electoral votes leaning towards Trump?

00:00:53.000 They're not telling you the truth.

00:00:54.000 But internal polling shows what they know Biden can't win.

00:00:59.000 And now they're entertaining perhaps Gretchen Whitmer?

00:01:02.000 Perhaps Michelle Obama.

00:01:04.000 But we'll talk about all of that, my friends.

00:03:40.000 Also at the Capitol here, right down the road.

00:03:43.000 And yeah, I mean, there's a hell of a lot to talk about here tonight, especially on that front.

00:03:52.000 So thanks for hanging out.

00:03:54.000 Absolutely.

00:03:54.000 Ian is here.

00:03:55.000 Hello, Tim.

00:03:56.000 Nick, good to see you.

00:03:57.000 Hannah Clare as well.

00:03:58.000 Hi everybody, Ian Crossland, happy to be back.

00:04:00.000 It's been a while, been a couple of weeks.

00:04:01.000 We were playing Magic earlier.

00:04:02.000 Yeah, Tim rocked me like three times with some of these new decks he's got.

00:04:05.000 Well, you wiped me out with the Cissé deck instantly.

00:04:08.000 That was just... Did I?

00:04:09.000 Yeah, I just was scooped.

00:04:10.000 It was a bunch of new cards, so a lot of when you're playing with new cards, you gotta read the cards.

00:04:14.000 That's, you know, it's a steep slope getting up, but once you're up there it plateaus and then you can just rock.

00:04:19.000 It's like learning the guitar, I think.

00:04:21.000 Yes.

00:04:22.000 Hannah Clare's hanging out.

00:04:23.000 I am hanging out.

00:04:23.000 I don't know anything about magic gathering, but I'm glad you guys had a good time.

00:04:27.000 I'm Hannah Clare Brimel.

00:04:27.000 I'm a writer for scnr.com.

00:04:29.000 That's Scanner News.

00:04:32.000 Kellen's here tonight.

00:04:33.000 Yes, I'm filling in for Serge.

00:04:34.000 He's currently on a mountainside painting a portrait.

00:04:37.000 Is he really?

00:04:38.000 A landscape.

00:04:39.000 No, no, but I think that would be funny.

00:04:41.000 He might be.

00:04:41.000 Who knows?

00:04:42.000 Honestly, who knows?

00:04:42.000 Let's just say he is.

00:04:44.000 It's a good image.

00:04:45.000 But yeah, I'm Calum, guys.

00:04:46.000 Let's get started.

00:04:46.000 Don't forget, it's MAGA month.

00:04:48.000 Have you guys all changed your profile pictures to American flags yet?

00:04:51.000 No, I have not.

00:04:52.000 This is where every company, you know, you gotta change your profile.

00:04:55.000 I only changed mine.

00:04:56.000 I don't know if, like, Tim Casson News or anything changed their profiles, but I put the American flag up.

00:05:00.000 So did you declare this tonight?

00:05:02.000 I declared this like two years ago.

00:05:03.000 Oh, okay.

00:05:03.000 Oh, perfect.

00:05:04.000 Are you going to observe?

00:05:06.000 I will observe MAGA Month.

00:05:07.000 I have declared that July is MAGA Month.

00:05:10.000 It was like tongue-in-cheek because of Pride Month, and I was like, July is MAGA Month.

00:05:13.000 Why are we celebrating one day of freedom when we could be celebrating a whole month of freedom?

00:05:18.000 There we go.

00:05:19.000 Perfect.

00:05:20.000 Burgers, hot dogs, beers, sitting on a floatie in your pool.

00:05:24.000 That's what it's all about.

00:05:24.000 All right.

00:05:25.000 Let's see.

00:05:25.000 That's right.

00:05:26.000 Let's jump to the news, ladies and gentlemen, from CNN.

00:05:28.000 Trump's sentencing in Hush Money case is postponed until September after Supreme Court immunity ruling.

00:05:36.000 Donald Trump will not be sentenced on his business fraud conviction until September.

00:05:40.000 A New York judge ruled Tuesday in the wake of Monday's Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity.

00:05:44.000 that Elaine's sentencing means the former president is likely to escape any concrete

00:05:49.000 punishment for his felony conviction during the summer. At the same time, Trump's election bid

00:05:53.000 has been boosted by President Joe Biden's debate flop that has Democrats wondering whether to

00:05:58.000 replace their nominee. Talk about just, I mean, since Thursday, like the dam broke.

00:06:05.000 Everything's coming up Trump.

00:06:07.000 He is just winning, winning, winning.

00:06:09.000 The Supreme Court ruling.

00:06:11.000 When did this come down?

00:06:11.000 This come down on, uh, it was Thursday, right?

00:06:14.000 The immunity win was yesterday.

00:06:17.000 It's been a long 24 hours.

00:06:19.000 Can you believe that was one day ago?

00:06:21.000 Right.

00:06:21.000 I was like, that had to be last week.

00:06:23.000 You were expecting it to be last week because they don't typically go, like they had to extend their term.

00:06:27.000 Wasn't Friday the last day?

00:06:29.000 No, they did extend it.

00:06:30.000 Trump is just winning across the board.

00:06:32.000 This is nuts.

00:06:33.000 And I actually expect... I don't know that Judge Mershawn will accept... I don't know if it's going to go to Judge Mershawn.

00:06:39.000 Is Judge Mershawn the first line in determining whether or not to overturn this conviction?

00:06:43.000 Yes. 0.96

00:06:43.000 He's going to say, screw off. 0.96

00:06:44.000 You're convicted.

00:06:46.000 I'm actually surprised they even let them delay the sentencing hearing at this point.

00:06:49.000 I'm shocked by that.

00:06:50.000 Well, 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?

00:07:00.000 So he was saying, you know, it could go to late July, basically.

00:07:04.000 And this is interesting.

00:07:05.000 I don't, you know, I don't think Rashad likes Trump.

00:07:07.000 I think he'd be happy to see him locked up.

00:07:09.000 But it is interesting that he was like, it's gonna be a lot more than two weeks.

00:07:12.000 We really got to review this thing.

00:07:14.000 Yeah, 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.

00:07:29.000 And that's evidence.

00:07:30.000 Out.

00:07:31.000 So it's done.

00:07:31.000 Absolutely.

00:07:32.000 And 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.

00:07:49.000 I think Merchant's going to do everything he can not to have it thrown out entirely, but to have a new trial again.

00:07:54.000 But obviously a new trial would probably not occur before the election.

00:07:58.000 So all of this right now.

00:07:59.000 The other thing that happens... So it's not worth anything.

00:08:01.000 Right.

00:08:01.000 So this is September 18th.

00:08:03.000 It's sort of mid to late September.

00:08:05.000 Hunter Biden goes to trial on his tax stuff on September 5th.

00:08:08.000 So 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?

00:08:15.000 Well, because taxation is theft, free Hunter Biden.

00:08:18.000 I'm kidding on that front.

00:08:19.000 I'm not a staunch liberal.

00:08:20.000 Turns out we're hugely supportive of Hunter Biden.

00:08:22.000 But the gun charge thing, I am all about free Hunter Biden.

00:08:24.000 He should be pardoned.

00:08:25.000 And I hope that the conviction gets challenged in the Supreme Court and they overturn that.

00:08:30.000 Did they release the sentencing date for that?

00:08:31.000 I don't know.

00:08:32.000 What I can say, though, is it's not just this one case.

00:08:34.000 Trump's going to win all of them now.

00:08:37.000 Like, there's no way any of these other cases can stand.

00:08:40.000 All of them required evidence that were official duties.

00:08:44.000 They are using Trump's... And the Supreme Court makes an important point.

00:08:49.000 Using the president's official duties as evidence of wrongdoing is to indicate that his official duties are components of wrongdoing.

00:08:56.000 I agree.

00:08:56.000 I mean, they're all out.

00:08:59.000 So he's talking to Mike Pence on January 6th, official duties, gone.

00:09:04.000 He's talking to politicians, states, about election results, contesting the results.

00:09:12.000 He's the chief law enforcement officer of this country.

00:09:14.000 I mean, how many lines did we see as the president?

00:09:17.000 He needed to step in and do whatever, which we know he did, of course, send messages saying, go home, whatever else.

00:09:22.000 But everyone invoked this as his official responsibility to intercede on January 6th.

00:09:26.000 So I don't really understand how that case could go forward.

00:09:28.000 I 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.

00:09:41.000 Well, 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?

00:09:53.000 She 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. 1.00

00:10:02.000 I 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.

00:10:08.000 She's not going to do that. 0.73

00:10:09.000 So they're going to try to push forward with this case.

00:10:11.000 And if anything, the J6 one is the one that would have the least merit at this point, given Supreme Court ruling.

00:10:17.000 Yeah.

00:10:19.000 So do you think that this is going to make Never Trumpers more hysterical or what's the effect going to be?

00:10:26.000 Does anyone look at the Supreme Court's ruling and think, oh, maybe we've gotten this wrong?

00:10:30.000 Are they not already hysterical enough?

00:10:33.000 Is there a ceiling?

00:10:34.000 I don't think so.

00:10:36.000 I don't think so.

00:10:36.000 I mean, at this point, you're looking at, I'm sure you guys heard all, you know, yesterday, panic from the left.

00:10:43.000 These 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.

00:10:54.000 I mean, just bonkers stuff.

00:10:57.000 Or I can't even believe that. 1.00

00:10:58.000 It's almost like, are these people this stupid? 1.00

00:11:00.000 Or are they? 1.00

00:11:02.000 They literally live in a world where they think being a rogue actor president killing your rivals is official duties.

00:11:09.000 But hold on, think about this.

00:11:10.000 Let me just point this out for a second.

00:11:11.000 The reason why they're upset about this is because Barack Obama murdered 16-year-old Abdulrahman Al-Awlaki, an American citizen.

00:11:19.000 He 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.

00:11:28.000 And 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.

00:11:43.000 Now, I'm not going to say the average Democrat understands any of that.

00:11:46.000 I'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.

00:11:57.000 What 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.

00:12:07.000 They've got assets in Ukraine that are probably operating illegally.

00:12:12.000 You've got people like Hunter Biden, obviously, who operated illegally in Brisbane.

00:12:15.000 I don't think he's at risk of anything like that.

00:12:17.000 But 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.

00:12:24.000 Anwar was accused of being a jihadi, so Obama assassinated him.

00:12:28.000 And then his son, who was not accused of anything, was killed in a whoopsie-daisy by Obama, Obama's administration claimed.

00:12:38.000 Think about what happens when Obama murders Americans and they don't do anything about it.

00:12:42.000 Because Republicans didn't care either. 0.88

00:12:44.000 Now 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.

00:12:55.000 Is this because of the NDAA?

00:12:56.000 Ever 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?

00:13:04.000 Well, the NDA didn't do that.

00:13:06.000 The National Defense Authorization Act is re-upped every year, but in 2012 it was the indefinite detention provision.

00:13:12.000 It included a provision that would allow the president to basically rendition anyone at any time for any reason.

00:13:18.000 They 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.

00:13:24.000 That'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.

00:13:28.000 That's how the law reads.

00:13:29.000 If you want to change the law, get rid of that provision.

00:13:32.000 I'm fine with it.

00:13:32.000 It just means impeach Obama.

00:13:34.000 You 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.

00:13:42.000 But you gotta impeach him and say, that is a high crime.

00:13:45.000 We hereby assert that action is a high crime and a misdemeanor or a misdemeanor is not an official act.

00:13:51.000 Then after you impeach and convict, then you can bring in criminal prosecution.

00:13:55.000 But I find it really interesting that no other former president, no former president has said anything about this at all.

00:14:01.000 Nothing about the Supreme Court ruling.

00:14:02.000 They're radio silent on it and you're like, hmm, I wonder why?

00:14:05.000 You know, of course they support this.

00:14:08.000 They actually do.

00:14:08.000 Joe Biden supports this ruling.

00:14:10.000 He's just not going to say that.

00:14:11.000 It's not politically expedient for him.

00:14:12.000 Well, it's not on teleprompter, so he doesn't know.

00:14:14.000 That's right.

00:14:15.000 He doesn't know that he supports it or doesn't support it.

00:14:18.000 I 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?

00:14:31.000 Because all of this is about fear-mongering.

00:14:33.000 It'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.

00:14:40.000 When 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.

00:14:50.000 It'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.

00:14:58.000 There 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.

00:15:06.000 And again, the hysteria is what they think will drive voters to the polls.

00:15:09.000 So they need to be mad at the Supreme Court.

00:15:11.000 They need to be fearful of Trump to have any action with their party.

00:15:14.000 So in reality, nothing has really changed with this ruling at all because, you know, this wasn't even necessary.

00:15:18.000 It was always understood that presidents had a level of immunity, right?

00:15:22.000 But this wasn't a problem until Joe Biden decided to weaponize the DOJ to go after his political opponent.

00:15:28.000 That's it.

00:15:28.000 That's the only reason we're even talking about this right now.

00:15:31.000 There'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.

00:15:43.000 I agree with that.

00:15:44.000 I 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.

00:15:52.000 Ketanji 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. 0.81

00:16:03.000 Right.

00:16:04.000 And, like, when the mind goes... So I put it on Twitter.

00:16:07.000 I'm like, you know, let's... Supreme Court needs term limits. 0.91

00:16:09.000 And I think people assumed that I'm only saying that because I disagreed with this verdict, which I don't, by the way.

00:16:14.000 But I think now's a good time.

00:16:15.000 The ball's in your court.

00:16:17.000 If you believe that they did the right thing, the ball's now in your court.

00:16:19.000 You have the power to suggest, even though I believe they do the right thing, I still want to see term limits for these people.

00:16:24.000 See, I think it speaks more to culture.

00:16:25.000 I think we should have a culture that believes that we have a generation that can take over power.

00:16:29.000 Everyone 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?

00:16:37.000 Because they knew her as the figurehead.

00:16:38.000 I'm not saying that's true.

00:16:39.000 I'm just saying that was the rumor.

00:16:42.000 You 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.

00:16:51.000 It's the person's decision to stay or leave.

00:16:53.000 And 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.

00:17:04.000 So that was one of the things that happened with American. 0.93

00:17:06.000 And Ruth Bader Ginsburg, she thought for sure that Hillary Clinton was going to win that election. 1.00

00:17:10.000 She would be able to, you know, because she couldn't really step down before that.

00:17:13.000 They were having such a hard time even getting Merrick Garland through.

00:17:16.000 Later, they were like, you should have stepped down earlier.

00:17:18.000 Obama could have appointed.

00:17:19.000 Exactly.

00:17:20.000 I mean, this is the thing about the Supreme Court is like, I agree with you.

00:17:22.000 Maybe there's a question of like, as we live longer and longer, you know, how long do they want us to court?

00:17:27.000 On the other hand, if we had a culture that allowed people to retire and transition power, it would work better.

00:17:33.000 Really, what we're doing to our geriatric leaders right now is kind of crazy.

00:17:38.000 Either 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.

00:17:49.000 Let's let's jump to the story.

00:17:50.000 Ladies and gentlemen, I can't say that I am shocked.

00:17:54.000 Daily Mail reports breaking news.

00:17:57.000 Biden admits he, quote, almost fell asleep on stage as he makes a laughable excuse for his disastrous debate against Donald Trump.

00:18:07.000 Uh, when we were doing story production for the show, I didn't believe this.

00:18:10.000 I was like, wait, what?

00:18:11.000 When did that happen?

00:18:12.000 Biden admitted he almost fell asleep?

00:18:15.000 He did at a fundraiser, like literally an hour before the show started because I saw it.

00:18:15.000 Wow.

00:18:20.000 He was, you know, talking, his handlers, you know, didn't have control of him.

00:18:23.000 And 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.

00:18:37.000 I 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.

00:18:44.000 I don't know if you guys saw that story earlier as well.

00:18:46.000 That was in the New York Times saying that.

00:18:48.000 That's not some right-wing outlet that came out with that.

00:18:50.000 The New York Times is saying that.

00:18:52.000 Because 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.

00:18:59.000 I mean, I think the other part is like we have to look at this word admitted.

00:19:02.000 I think they're trying to now roll out the latest excuse as to why Biden was not so good.

00:19:07.000 Oh, he was tired because he was traveling.

00:19:09.000 That makes you look not strong as a president.

00:19:12.000 Today 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.

00:19:19.000 Like it's just lie after lie to present these excuses hoping that you will be sympathetic to him.

00:19:24.000 I'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.

00:19:36.000 No Americans died on their watch when we know Very basically that 13 Marines did in Afghanistan.

00:19:42.000 I think all the Americans should be insulted by this.

00:19:45.000 Well, 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.

00:19:53.000 and 4 p.m.

00:19:54.000 This just reinforces that as the debate was at, you know, nine o'clock in the evening.

00:19:59.000 It was within five minutes of the debate starting where everybody, I mean, you looked at X and Everybody was saying the same thing.

00:20:06.000 The drugs aren't working.

00:20:08.000 He's asleep on stage.

00:20:10.000 I don't think this was an approved statement by the Biden team at this point.

00:20:16.000 It sounds like a dig, like an underhanded attempted dig by Biden.

00:20:19.000 If he was a young, spry guy, he's like, I was so bored by Trump and the moderators that I was falling asleep.

00:20:25.000 Then he'd be like, ooh, zing, he got him. 0.99

00:20:27.000 But because he's so old and prone to fall asleep in the middle of these conversations, it's not funny.

00:20:32.000 It's terrifying, actually.

00:20:33.000 Especially because there are reports of him falling asleep in other important meetings, right?

00:20:37.000 This is something that we now expect from him.

00:20:38.000 Like, I'm sorry if you're falling asleep while literally taping.

00:20:41.000 I would never be able to fall asleep in the middle of this.

00:20:44.000 You need to ace it.

00:20:45.000 That's not good. 1.00

00:20:45.000 I think that journalists are so stupid that Democrats are doing all this on purpose. 1.00

00:20:50.000 Because you had the press briefing where journalists finally started asking questions about this. 1.00

00:20:55.000 One asked whether or not Biden was suffering from dementia.

00:20:58.000 But these journalists are such, they're such low IQ people.

00:21:02.000 I'm sure if you asked them, how would they have felt if they did not have breakfast yesterday, they'd act confused.

00:21:07.000 They'd generally be confused.

00:21:09.000 And 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.

00:21:17.000 So 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.

00:21:25.000 They care about winning the election in November, and they know that Joe Biden can't do it.

00:21:29.000 So they have to replace him.

00:21:31.000 They have to come out with all of these hit pieces right now and topple him, because they got to put somebody else in there.

00:21:36.000 The question is, Who?

00:21:39.000 Can you go around Kamala?

00:21:41.000 No, I don't think you can.

00:21:43.000 One 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.

00:21:54.000 From what I read about it, I could be wrong on that, but that would be a huge loss.

00:21:58.000 I 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.

00:22:05.000 But you can't even get rid of Kamala Harris to begin with because, you know, she's a DEI hire at this point, right?

00:22:10.000 And so how do you get rid of the first black woman vice president? 1.00

00:22:15.000 How do you kick her out of the way and be like, okay, yeah, we're going to install this white guy out of California. 0.98

00:22:20.000 Get her to quit first. 0.93

00:22:20.000 Yeah, get her to quit first. 0.93

00:22:22.000 Well, there you go.

00:22:23.000 There was somebody floating that said, okay, well, expand to the Supreme Court and put Kamala Harris on it. 1.00

00:22:28.000 I mean, that would get her out of the way, but... 1.00

00:22:30.000 It sounds like a terrible proposition.

00:22:32.000 And they're also on unlimited time, right?

00:22:33.000 Like, they're not going to be able to expand the Supreme Court and get Kamala in before the DNC, before the election. 0.87

00:22:41.000 Even if these things were hypothetically possible, there's no turnaround.

00:22:44.000 We know how slow government moves.

00:22:46.000 I 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.

00:22:51.000 Like, they're actually kind of on pause right now.

00:22:54.000 There's only four months until the election.

00:22:56.000 Kamala is not going to get guaranteed a spot in the Supreme Court before the time comes. 0.98

00:23:00.000 But 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.

00:23:12.000 They 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.

00:23:18.000 I think the timing's intentional.

00:23:19.000 The timing is absolutely intentional.

00:23:21.000 They waited this long on purpose.

00:23:23.000 They 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.

00:23:33.000 Republicans have no idea who they're up against.

00:23:36.000 Let me stress this.

00:23:38.000 Right 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.

00:23:46.000 Yeah, it's either going to be Michelle Obama, Gavin Newsom, Gretchen Whitmer, Hillary Clinton, doubtful, but like, who else?

00:23:53.000 I don't think they can pull Biden from the ticket.

00:23:54.000 What if they did it?

00:23:55.000 Michelle Obama, Newsom, with Michelle Obama as president.

00:24:00.000 Yeah, something like that.

00:24:01.000 She'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.

00:24:06.000 No, 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.

00:24:17.000 So 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. 0.95

00:24:22.000 Okay, but how do you do that without Biden resigning?

00:24:24.000 You can't say that and then still have Biden as president for the next, you know, six months.

00:24:28.000 He's gonna have to resign.

00:24:30.000 I think he will.

00:24:31.000 Well, you also have the DNC.

00:24:32.000 You think he'll resign?

00:24:33.000 This is how you get rid of Kamala Harris. 1.00

00:24:35.000 Joe Biden resigns.

00:24:37.000 She becomes president for that.

00:24:38.000 And 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.

00:24:50.000 The excuse will be, it's impossible to launch a campaign at such last minute, 11th hour.

00:24:58.000 I'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.

00:25:04.000 And 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.

00:25:11.000 How do you get past Kamala Harris?

00:25:13.000 You say she's a DEI hire, right?

00:25:15.000 Many people are like, you can't get rid of her, she's next in line. 1.00

00:25:18.000 Michelle Obama.

00:25:20.000 If they threw out Kamala Harris and said, Biden's resigning and we're bringing in Newsom, that can't happen.

00:25:25.000 DEI revolt!

00:25:26.000 However, Kamala Harris becomes acting president two, three months out, maybe four months, maybe real soon.

00:25:32.000 Biden says, I'm not a young man anymore.

00:25:35.000 I've done everything I could.

00:25:36.000 There are some people who want to step in and I respect it.

00:25:39.000 I'm resigning.

00:25:40.000 Kamala Harris takes over as president, says, They say, Kamala, are you going to take over the campaign and run? 0.99

00:25:47.000 She goes, no, I'm going to do my job.

00:25:49.000 And that is as acting president to help this country through an emergency.

00:25:54.000 There is absolutely no time or capability for me to launch a campaign.

00:25:58.000 And I'm fine with that.

00:25:59.000 Michelle Obama then says, Kamala, that's so magnanimous of you.

00:26:04.000 I will step up because of you made this sacrifice.

00:26:07.000 And then the DEI crowd says, Michelle Obama, that's even better.

00:26:13.000 So for whoever from the DNC is watching this for opposition research, I think I'd use that, actually.

00:26:18.000 That's a pretty good plan.

00:26:20.000 My proposal was for the deep state.

00:26:23.000 Joe Biden's on stage at a rally and mid-sentence talking about Batacaf care.

00:26:28.000 He goes, Gavin Newsom runs out, throws his jacket off, saves the president's life.

00:26:35.000 They mention in the news that it was a mere cardiac event.

00:26:39.000 The president is okay, but we don't know if he'll be able to go on.

00:26:43.000 He's going to resign.

00:26:45.000 Gavin Newsom then says, I'm no hero.

00:26:48.000 I was just doing what any good red-blooded American would do.

00:26:52.000 He goes on every single television station where they all praise him.

00:26:55.000 Even Fox News says, we may have our disagreements politically, but Gavin, you saved the president's life.

00:27:01.000 Then Kamala Harris does the whole scenario of, I can't launch a campaign right now. 1.00

00:27:05.000 That would be ridiculous.

00:27:06.000 I'm going to do my job.

00:27:07.000 Gavin Newsom says, you know, I wasn't planning on running, but the people have called my name and they've called me to action.

00:27:13.000 I'd say you get Gavin Newsom.

00:27:15.000 But 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.

00:27:25.000 She 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?

00:27:40.000 No.

00:27:41.000 And then they promise her something in the back channel.

00:27:43.000 I think she's too power hungry. 1.00

00:27:44.000 I don't think she'd be willing to give it up.

00:27:46.000 Even if she said like, oh yeah, I'll definitely step down, she would immediately watch it.

00:27:49.000 Right, right.

00:27:50.000 She agrees.

00:27:51.000 Behind the scenes, they're like, Kamala, here's what you're going to do.

00:27:53.000 You're going to say you're acting president.

00:27:54.000 We're going to give it to Newsom or Michelle Obama.

00:27:56.000 Then we'll make you a Supreme Court justice.

00:27:58.000 She goes, well, all right, sounds good to me.

00:28:00.000 Gets up on stage and goes, I'm running!

00:28:02.000 And they're like, oh.

00:28:04.000 They kind of did this with Biden in 2020.

00:28:06.000 They had all these candidates that were running against him, and then all at once, behind the scenes, some discussions were made.

00:28:11.000 Buttigieg lands on his cabinet, and they all support Biden at once.

00:28:15.000 I could see them all doing that, including Kamala, just one day.

00:28:17.000 They'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.

00:28:27.000 Let's really simplify it.

00:28:29.000 Open convention at the DNC, everybody chooses Obama Newsom, Kamala Harris says it's the will of the party, and that's the end of it.

00:28:36.000 There's no complicated story there.

00:28:39.000 I don't think Biden will leave office.

00:28:41.000 I think even if, you know, I think he will be on the ticket in November.

00:28:45.000 Even if they do, he says like, oh, I'm just gonna be a one-term president.

00:28:48.000 I'm not gonna go for it.

00:28:49.000 I don't think that he would actually give up the presidency.

00:28:51.000 I think that there is a desire to stay in power, to end your career on top, aka being the president.

00:28:57.000 And it's just unlikely to me that, especially given what, six months till inauguration day, he's not gonna leave.

00:29:03.000 Except 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.

00:29:10.000 They might do that to Biden too and be like, you get to retire now.

00:29:13.000 And they'll slide a picture of Kennedy across the table.

00:29:15.000 He'd be like, I don't understand what this is.

00:29:16.000 I'm going to continue on.

00:29:17.000 Jill, what are we doing?

00:29:19.000 He's going to be like, oh JFK, good president.

00:29:24.000 Yes, Joe.

00:29:25.000 And an untimely death.

00:29:27.000 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:29:28.000 Anyway, thanks for coming in.

00:29:29.000 The CIA guy walks out and he's like, I don't think he got it.

00:29:34.000 You know that term, ignorance is bliss?

00:29:36.000 Like, he can just keep going.

00:29:37.000 He doesn't need to know.

00:29:38.000 Let's jump to this story.

00:29:39.000 This is big news.

00:29:40.000 We have this tweet, per Puck News, leaked Democrat internal polling from Open Labs.

00:29:46.000 Ladies and gentlemen, it is substantially worse than anybody realizes.

00:29:52.000 According to this leaked polling data, internal from Democrats, Joe Biden is down in double digits in several key states.

00:30:00.000 Even look at New Hampshire, he's down three points.

00:30:02.000 Wisconsin, four points.

00:30:04.000 I 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.

00:30:13.000 After that debate, it was so bad.

00:30:14.000 And you can actually see this.

00:30:15.000 Look at this.

00:30:16.000 The margin drop post-debate because of Biden's performance.

00:30:21.000 It is two points across the board in basically every state.

00:30:25.000 He's lost two solid points in key states.

00:30:29.000 And there's no denying it at this point.

00:30:30.000 I 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.

00:30:38.000 And I'm like, OK, well, just look at them, lady.

00:30:40.000 But, you know, this is clearly a strategic leak.

00:30:43.000 The Democrats are usually a lot better about keeping things hush hush internally.

00:30:46.000 And, you know, all of a sudden we got leaked internal polling because they're in scorched earth mode at this point.

00:30:51.000 Look at, you know, Pennsylvania, Arizona, Nevada, Georgia, places Trump supposedly lost last election.

00:31:00.000 He's deeply underwater in those territories.

00:31:03.000 There's no way for him to win with this.

00:31:05.000 You take North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, Nevada, and I turn them red, Trump wins.

00:31:10.000 Election's over.

00:31:11.000 Election's over.

00:31:12.000 But he's also underwater in Wisconsin.

00:31:14.000 And Michigan.

00:31:15.000 I mean, that's it!

00:31:16.000 3-12 Republican.

00:31:18.000 It was so transparent.

00:31:19.000 This is the internal Democrat data right now.

00:31:23.000 Take a look at this.

00:31:24.000 Bobby 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.

00:31:41.000 They're going to have an open convention at the DNC, and they're going to nominate somebody else.

00:31:45.000 Kamala Harris gets tossed out, and everyone's wondering, what's the political move?

00:31:48.000 There doesn't need to be one.

00:31:50.000 She has no choice.

00:31:51.000 She'll come out and say, I am happy that the people of the convention have spoken.

00:31:55.000 It's democracy.

00:31:56.000 We love democracy.

00:31:57.000 Thank you, everybody.

00:31:58.000 And that's it.

00:31:59.000 I get the feeling that she feels humiliated frequently in this position, this season, too.

00:32:03.000 She wasn't really qualified.

00:32:06.000 She got picked.

00:32:07.000 Was she even running for president? 1.00

00:32:09.000 Yeah, she was running for president. 0.77

00:32:11.000 She dropped out, got a facelift, and came back as his VP.

00:32:14.000 And after she said that she thought that Biden was a racist and had done things to women and such, too.

00:32:20.000 Oh, and then slipped like a 180 right after.

00:32:22.000 How do you go from... But all right, well, I mean, but we know exactly what happened there.

00:32:26.000 And 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.

00:32:34.000 It's not good.

00:32:35.000 She's always been unpopular.

00:32:36.000 I mean, that's one of the issues.

00:32:38.000 The moment she stepped foot in office.

00:32:40.000 And Biden made her the border czar.

00:32:42.000 Well, look how well that's going for everybody.

00:32:45.000 And then she was on a national abortion tour. 1.00

00:32:47.000 She is too hostile of a character.

00:32:50.000 I don't think that she could actually launch a campaign at this point. 0.77

00:32:52.000 I think she could go back to California and potentially win governorship if Newsom leaves. 1.00

00:32:57.000 That might be the play right there.

00:32:59.000 I think that's totally a mistake because he's term limited.

00:33:03.000 Checks out of this situation, goes back to California, becomes the governor, freeing him up to write a book and then run for president.

00:33:07.000 That's an interesting philosophy.

00:33:09.000 But 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.

00:33:19.000 And I have thought this for a long time. 0.99

00:33:20.000 Democrats are always like, Republicans are all crazy.

00:33:23.000 We'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. 0.53

00:33:33.000 And I think the fact that they're throwing these polls out would be indicative if it was an intentional leak by someone inside.

00:33:39.000 The campaign is saying, we can't do this.

00:33:41.000 We need to force the Biden family to accept that he needs to leave and they will never do that.

00:33:46.000 Yeah, 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.

00:34:02.000 Intense internal division.

00:34:04.000 Yeah, exactly.

00:34:05.000 You know, we heard about that Biden's sleeping hours or his awake hours are from 10 to 4.

00:34:11.000 And I mean, all of this happening at one time.

00:34:14.000 They're trying to force him out.

00:34:16.000 I 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.

00:34:24.000 So Biden went in expecting that.

00:34:26.000 And Trump was just super chill.

00:34:28.000 Biden just stumbled around on himself.

00:34:30.000 That was great.

00:34:30.000 I always didn't want Trump to come off as hostile because that was the big criticism of him in 2020, right?

00:34:35.000 That he was too, you know, aggressive and whatever else and it made Biden comparatively look kind of calm and cool.

00:34:40.000 Yeah, so Biden demanded, the Biden camp demanded that there would be a mute button and no audience.

00:34:46.000 I think both of those things backfired on Joe Biden because Trump couldn't just Keep speaking.

00:34:52.000 I mean, there's nothing that he could say.

00:34:53.000 He could not railroad Biden even if he wanted to.

00:34:56.000 And, you know, Trump's a showman.

00:34:57.000 If you have an audience, you're trying to get a reaction out of the audience as well.

00:35:00.000 There was no audience to get a reaction out of.

00:35:02.000 And so Biden had more than enough rope to hang himself.

00:35:05.000 I thought it was perfect.

00:35:06.000 Yeah, 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.

00:35:12.000 You 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.

00:35:19.000 And I think ultimately all of this comes down to what is the perception of the American people.

00:35:23.000 And it's not one that I think is recoverable because they have damaged themselves on two front, right?

00:35:30.000 Joe Biden looks weak.

00:35:31.000 He looks lost.

00:35:31.000 He looks confused.

00:35:32.000 He looks like he doesn't know what's going on.

00:35:35.000 He 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.

00:35:41.000 But 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

00:35:51.000 that something's up with Joe Biden's balance or memory or walk or anything, they're crazy. They're 0.98

00:35:57.000 conspiracy theorists. They're, you know, disrespectful to the president. And then he came

00:36:01.000 on stage and it was not good. He did not seem like a strong, healthy man. You know, what

00:36:06.000 really kind of cements all this, that he's not going to be the nominee, is that Jake Tapper

00:36:10.000 and Anderson Cooper are going so hard against him and pointing out that his dementia, or if

00:36:15.000 it's Alzheimer's, I'm not sure, they're different, obviously. But like, they're basically

00:36:20.000 controlled by CNN, their company, parent company, which is controlled by Five Eyes, you know,

00:36:25.000 the imperial spy club, whatever you want to call it, the deep state. And, you know, they're

00:36:28.000 just, 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.

00:36:34.000 They 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.

00:36:37.000 The DNC gets to pick their own candidate with superdelegates.

00:36:41.000 They have zero chance.

00:36:43.000 Biden in no way gets any kind of popular opportunity.

00:36:46.000 It's whatever the DNC wants to do is what they're going to do.

00:36:48.000 Right.

00:36:49.000 So the polling data extended that shows Biden, Buttigieg, Harris, Newsom and Whitmer, no matter who it is, they're underwater.

00:36:57.000 Trump only needs North Carolina, Arizona, and I believe Georgia.

00:37:01.000 So let's do this, let's reset the map and say North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada.

00:37:07.000 Okay, so that still puts him a little bit shy.

00:37:10.000 So let's throw in, I guess he would need at least one more.

00:37:12.000 Buttigieg, they say is, they're claiming Buttigieg is doing the best.

00:37:17.000 North Carolina, Arizona, Georgia, Nevada.

00:37:19.000 He would need one more state.

00:37:20.000 But, to be fair, how are they doing in PA?

00:37:23.000 Looks like Democrats are doing moderately well in PA.

00:37:26.000 I think Michigan probably doesn't make the most sense.

00:37:28.000 The state that makes the most sense is probably going to be PA, which looks like they're all underwater.

00:37:33.000 So if Trump secures that based on this polling, no matter who they bring in, Trump wins.

00:37:38.000 I 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.

00:37:46.000 It's Michelle Obama.

00:37:47.000 It's gotta be Michelle Obama.

00:37:48.000 There's no other- and look, this isn't something I want to say- Michelle Obama doesn't want to do it! 0.99

00:37:53.000 Well, why do you believe- why believe that?

00:37:56.000 Right.

00:37:56.000 I think that she has a really nice life and she doesn't like this.

00:37:59.000 So did Trump.

00:38:00.000 Look, she's not running for office. 1.00

00:38:02.000 I mean, Hillary Clinton was first lady and then ran for governor of New York, right?

00:38:06.000 Michelle Obama's been hanging out on yachts and raising her kids and doing whatever. 1.00

00:38:09.000 Private jets around the world.

00:38:10.000 Going on her podcast.

00:38:11.000 She did not make any forward political moves when they left the White House.

00:38:16.000 That's very different from Hillary Clinton, who we know, if they asked her to run, she would run right now. 1.00

00:38:22.000 Barack Obama looks over at Michelle and he goes, uh, Michelle, if you don't run, I'm going to jail.

00:38:28.000 So you gotta do it.

00:38:30.000 That's it.

00:38:30.000 But 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.

00:38:43.000 It's going to look awful on Obama and his legacy if everybody totally melts down in the Democrat Party.

00:38:50.000 It's interesting that you say that.

00:38:51.000 She is his savior.

00:38:52.000 It'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.

00:38:59.000 Well, they wouldn't endorse him in the primary.

00:39:00.000 They wouldn't endorse him.

00:39:02.000 Anytime they've kind of talked about him, it's been sort of muted.

00:39:05.000 Even Obama's last tweet being like, bad debate nights happen.

00:39:08.000 Like, it did not seem like a really strong, supportive argument.

00:39:12.000 It was sort of like, yeah, I know that guy and like, be nice to him.

00:39:15.000 It's kind of sad.

00:39:16.000 But that's not how the people see it, though.

00:39:18.000 I think it is how they see it.

00:39:20.000 I 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.

00:39:29.000 And I do think Obama, especially his staff, have huge influence on the Biden administration, especially at the staffing level.

00:39:35.000 But I think Obama himself does not believe that he has a real strong connection with Joe.

00:39:39.000 It'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.

00:39:57.000 Really interesting here.

00:39:58.000 CNN admits something unbelievably embarrassing.

00:40:01.000 Many 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.

00:40:14.000 These people are in a cult, okay?

00:40:18.000 They are so terrified to offend, they won't say it.

00:40:22.000 Meanwhile, Donald Trump goes on stage at the Libertarian Convention and gets boos, jeers, and cheers, willing to accept that challenge.

00:40:30.000 The media on the right has no problem calling out Trump.

00:40:32.000 Even Laura Loomer, There is no bigger supporter of Donald Trump than Laura Loomer.

00:40:38.000 Even she called out Trump over his immigration policy for college graduates.

00:40:43.000 If Laura Loomer can instantly go on Twitter and say, I love Trump, but no way! 0.73

00:40:48.000 And Democrats are like, well, we'd say things about Biden, which are painfully obvious, but the Democrats on Twitter will get mad at us.

00:40:55.000 That is the world that y'all live in if you're following this media.

00:40:58.000 What the hell is their job, though, at this point?

00:41:00.000 If you're telling me that you're scared to report on the White House, why are you reporting on the White House?

00:41:05.000 Because they get invited to the parties!

00:41:07.000 Yeah, they're just trying to get engagements and try to keep their overblown media companies afloat, right?

00:41:12.000 They don't want anyone to say, you wrote something I don't like so I'm not going to click on your website anymore.

00:41:17.000 They need it to be something that people want to come back and people don't want to read hard things.

00:41:22.000 I'll give a shout out to RFK Jr.

00:41:24.000 We've criticized him several times, and he agreed to do a full show with us.

00:41:27.000 He's legit.

00:41:28.000 I've actually criticized Trump quite a bit, though we are supporters of his, and he had no problem with a smile on his face.

00:41:33.000 He was like, let's sit down, let's do a show.

00:41:36.000 And more in the works.

00:41:38.000 It is unsurprising to me that These individuals want to engage with those who have criticized them.

00:41:45.000 It is, in fact, where you want to be.

00:41:47.000 Joe Biden should be coming on shows like this because these are the people he needs to convince, but they won't do it.

00:41:53.000 You know why?

00:41:53.000 Because they know they can't.

00:41:55.000 Well, they're going to put him on George Stephanopoulos this weekend, you know, the Clinton, you know, political strategist.

00:42:01.000 He was a top-level Clinton advisor back, you know, when Bill Clinton was president.

00:42:06.000 You know, always maintained a close relationship with them.

00:42:08.000 Pretty much was Hillary's mouthpiece in 2016. 1.00

00:42:11.000 That's the interview that they decided that they were going to do, you know, pretty obviously after this disastrous debate.

00:42:17.000 I think that airs this weekend or something like that.

00:42:19.000 With many, many jump cuts to make it look like there's a rapid discourse.

00:42:23.000 You know, they put out a video from the White House, and if he's trying to say, you know, a paragraph, there are three jump cuts in it.

00:42:29.000 I mean, that's exactly how this interview is going to be, too.

00:42:31.000 Probably a little bit more well done, to the point where it convinces the general public that it's not a jump cut.

00:42:37.000 It's wild to me that, you know, we had Luke Rutkowski on the show, for instance, for a very long time.

00:42:44.000 And many people in the audience accused Luke of having Trump Derangement Syndrome.

00:42:49.000 And yet Trump supporters with smiles on their faces come in and sit down next to Luke and say, ask me anything.

00:42:54.000 And now even Luke has tweeted, I'm voting for the felon over the other word.

00:43:00.000 It took him long enough.

00:43:04.000 My point is really simple.

00:43:05.000 It's like Trump's people will gladly sit down and debate someone who doesn't agree with

00:43:12.000 them and they will have that conversation.

00:43:14.000 You 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.

00:43:14.000 That's it.

00:43:29.000 The left is the opposite.

00:43:30.000 They 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.

00:43:40.000 They don't want anyone near them.

00:43:42.000 It's an inversion.

00:43:42.000 That clearly works on some people, though.

00:43:45.000 Oh, of course.

00:43:47.000 You've got to be a little bit fair to Joe Biden, though.

00:43:48.000 I mean, he just did a really hard-hitting interview with Harry Sisson a couple of weeks ago.

00:43:53.000 Oh, yeah, it was great.

00:43:54.000 Asked him about his ice cream and whatnot.

00:43:58.000 What flavor ice cream?

00:43:59.000 It's a chocolate chocolate chip.

00:44:00.000 That's the chocolate chocolate chip.

00:44:03.000 It's double chocolate chip.

00:44:04.000 Yeah, and you know, it's a man flavor took him it changed from vanilla bean You know within I don't know how that changed.

00:44:10.000 So I guess I forgot. 0.96

00:44:11.000 I 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.

00:44:26.000 I 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.

00:44:44.000 And that just indicates that the entire deep state mockingbird media apparatus has turned on this administration.

00:44:50.000 That 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.

00:44:59.000 The 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.

00:45:08.000 I mean, it was so bad they acknowledged it instead of just trying to be like, No, of course he did great.

00:45:14.000 He was stunned by all of the lies Donald Trump was saying.

00:45:18.000 It was so bad.

00:45:19.000 There was no way for them to play it off.

00:45:21.000 That's critical.

00:45:22.000 They tried in the beginning.

00:45:23.000 Well, Jill Biden did it anyway. 1.00

00:45:26.000 You did so good, Joe! 0.90

00:45:28.000 Oh, that was so gross.

00:45:29.000 You answered every question. 0.97

00:45:31.000 You knew every fact.

00:45:33.000 And he's like, Uh-huh.

00:45:34.000 That was crazy.

00:45:35.000 Remember the video of him basically crying on stage?

00:45:37.000 You see that?

00:45:38.000 No.

00:45:38.000 He really wanted to go home.

00:45:40.000 I think so.

00:45:41.000 He's probably really tired.

00:45:43.000 Yeah.

00:45:43.000 Jill's talking, and he's sitting there with his face just like this, like, uh-huh.

00:45:47.000 And people were saying he was crying.

00:45:49.000 And I'm like, he kind of looks like it.

00:45:50.000 I bet he's humiliated.

00:45:51.000 He doesn't want to do this.

00:45:53.000 He does not want to do it.

00:45:54.000 But, 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.

00:46:04.000 That's what they were telling him.

00:46:05.000 And now you've got Hunter Biden going around to White House meetings with him.

00:46:10.000 And even to the point where his advisors are asking what the hell is happening.

00:46:15.000 That's a quote.

00:46:16.000 From one of the advisors to, I believe it was the New York Times today, they did a report on that.

00:46:20.000 Nobody 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.

00:46:33.000 They're like, they're like guard dogs now.

00:46:35.000 Yeah, 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.

00:46:40.000 He and Jill, is that true?

00:46:41.000 He's the smartest man Joe knows.

00:46:42.000 knows. So that's a quote from Joe Biden. That's the smartest man he knows.

00:46:46.000 So I don't know why, you know, that's sad, but that's weird.

00:46:51.000 Like, I mean, they're probably afraid that if Joe doesn't get into power,

00:46:53.000 they're going to, the family's going to get arrested and exposed and things

00:46:56.000 like that.

00:46:56.000 I also think no one wants to go out in a moment of weakness, right?

00:47:01.000 Like, 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.

00:47:12.000 Like, they want it to be on their terms, if at all, and really on their terms is four years from now.

00:47:17.000 So 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.

00:47:32.000 And the rally right afterwards in North Carolina, right?

00:47:35.000 And his campaign pointed to that, saying, oh, well, he was great then, so obviously it's crazy to even talk about the debate.

00:47:40.000 Stop talking about it.

00:47:41.000 I mean, they don't like that answer.

00:47:42.000 But 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.

00:47:49.000 And 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.

00:48:01.000 And if that was Joe Biden's best, then I think all Democrats should sue their party because this is a terrible choice.

00:48:06.000 I think it was the worst debate performance of all time in American history.

00:48:11.000 I don't know.

00:48:11.000 I'm sure there are some worse debates on the presidential debate, presidential debate.

00:48:15.000 Televised presidential debate, I should clarify.

00:48:17.000 I 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.

00:48:24.000 I think his family wants him to stay in office.

00:48:26.000 I think his advisors, if they had been smart, would have advised him to be a one-term president two years ago.

00:48:31.000 And 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.

00:48:39.000 And there were a lot of states saying it's too late.

00:48:42.000 He's on the ballot.

00:48:44.000 Yeah, 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.

00:49:00.000 He 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.

00:49:10.000 And so theoretically, they have this moment this whole time to say, oh, no, no, we were always going to be a one-term president.

00:49:16.000 Instead, they launched his reelection campaign.

00:49:17.000 Somebody at some point intervened and said, nope, that's not what we're doing.

00:49:21.000 You know, you're going to keep going.

00:49:22.000 The Biden family.

00:49:23.000 The Biden family said we aren't leaving.

00:49:25.000 No matter what we said to you when we were dealmaking back in the day, we are staying in power.

00:49:29.000 And that's the point about Kamala Harris. 0.94

00:49:31.000 They'll cut a deal with her and say, Kamala, here's what we're going to do. 0.95

00:49:33.000 And she'll go, for sure.

00:49:34.000 And then she's going to get up on stage and be like, four more years! 1.00

00:49:37.000 And then they're going to go, ah.

00:49:38.000 I don't know if you know this about politicians, but famously, you're not supposed to trust them.

00:49:41.000 Yeah.

00:49:42.000 Well, but like, is it the deep state who is surprised they could not trust Joe Biden?

00:49:46.000 What do you mean, trust him?

00:49:49.000 Well, I mean, the idea being that he's a one-term president.

00:49:51.000 He's a placeholder.

00:49:52.000 He'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.

00:50:01.000 They didn't want to absorb all that damage.

00:50:04.000 So 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.

00:50:11.000 Then they bring in somebody else like Newsom.

00:50:13.000 Yeah, I think they wanted to trust him and now they know they can't.

00:50:15.000 And that's why they're letting their hounds loose.

00:50:17.000 And I mean, like Anderson Cooper and Jake Tapper.

00:50:19.000 No, no, it's all the plan, man.

00:50:20.000 It's all the plan.

00:50:21.000 Well, it's not that they don't trust him because he's basically a puppet at this point.

00:50:25.000 In my mind, it's because he's not useful anymore because he can't win.

00:50:28.000 So, you know, of course they'd want to use him for another four years, but they know that they can't.

00:50:32.000 It's over.

00:50:33.000 It's over for Joe Biden.

00:50:34.000 He cannot win.

00:50:35.000 Everybody knows that at this point.

00:50:36.000 Even 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.

00:50:45.000 Isn't that sort of what they did to Bernie in 2016?

00:50:48.000 As far as I know, yes, I think so.

00:50:51.000 He couldn't win anyway because of the superdelegates.

00:50:53.000 Even if he won the majority of states, he still They were going to pick Hillary Clinton. 0.99

00:50:57.000 Yeah, they were going to pick Hillary one way or the other. 1.00

00:50:58.000 And I think it was, is Bill a superdelegate?

00:51:01.000 Her own husband was one of the people that gets to choose.

00:51:05.000 Based on nothing at all than who he wants to pick.

00:51:05.000 That is nuts.

00:51:08.000 He can pick anybody.

00:51:10.000 He can pick absolutely anybody.

00:51:11.000 Do you know how many superdelegates there are?

00:51:13.000 How many of them convene and collude?

00:51:16.000 I don't know off the top of my head.

00:51:17.000 I know it's a huge portion of them.

00:51:21.000 I pray that my friends that consider themselves Democrats understand the danger of allowing a relatively small group of people to just select your candidate.

00:51:28.000 There's nothing democratic about the Democratic Party.

00:51:31.000 Oh, I know!

00:51:32.000 In name only, you might say.

00:51:34.000 Literally 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.

00:51:41.000 That's insane.

00:51:42.000 That'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?

00:51:53.000 Like, I think that's something we haven't talked about.

00:51:55.000 It's got to be somebody that hasn't talked about the issue, right?

00:51:57.000 Right now.

00:51:57.000 And I think, you know, Trump has done pretty good at kind of staying away from that issue for the most part.

00:52:01.000 You 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.

00:52:08.000 But, you know, I don't know.

00:52:10.000 Does 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.

00:52:19.000 He's postured on both sides.

00:52:20.000 Exactly.

00:52:21.000 That's actually not good enough for Democratic voters, which I find fascinating, right?

00:52:24.000 And it's an age divide in the party.

00:52:26.000 I think a lot of older Democrats are like, no, we have to be behind Israel 100%.

00:52:30.000 And younger Democrats say, no, genocide Palestine.

00:52:33.000 You know what I mean?

00:52:34.000 So the reality is I don't know, especially four months out from the election, that there

00:52:39.000 is an obvious contender because I'm sure – I mean how many of these protests were

00:52:46.000 happening at the University of California campuses, right?

00:52:48.000 Some of the worst ones.

00:52:49.000 Some of the biggest ones were in California, which means that Gavin Newsom had to respond

00:52:54.000 to them, which I'm sure means that there are progressive activists that think he's

00:52:57.000 awful and in bed with Israel and whatever else. 0.60

00:53:01.000 This is something that I think there is not an easy way for anyone to navigate away from 0.88

00:53:05.000 and I think ultimately that's why the DNC will rely on scaring people, right?

00:53:11.000 You can't let Trump be the one to pick the next Supreme Court nomination.

00:53:15.000 I 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.

00:53:22.000 And at that point, there's no reason to bring in a new face and trying to have to acclimate all the voters to him.

00:53:28.000 If 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.

00:53:38.000 I 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.

00:53:46.000 I mean, they don't know and they don't seem to care.

00:53:51.000 They've been told to hate Donald Trump, so they're going to continue hating Donald Trump.

00:53:54.000 They can't really give you a reason.

00:53:56.000 Vote blue, no matter who.

00:53:57.000 Vote blue, no matter who.

00:53:58.000 I was talking to my sister the other day, who is not involved in politics at all.

00:54:04.000 She liked Joe Biden up until the debate, but now I'm like, so what is your biggest concern with President Trump?

00:54:10.000 And she's like, oh, well, his Project 2025.

00:54:13.000 That's the line that they're using at this point where, you know, it's like, oh, well,

00:54:17.000 Trump is going to he's going to come and he's going to do all these.

00:54:20.000 Project 2025 isn't even his platform.

00:54:22.000 It isn't.

00:54:23.000 It's something that the Heritage Foundation put out.

00:54:26.000 Think Tank drafted a list of policy plans.

00:54:29.000 And also like, hey, we'd like to staff this way.

00:54:32.000 Like it's not that they have been like, because it has nothing to do with Donald Trump at

00:54:36.000 It's just a think tank putting it out.

00:54:38.000 But the Democrats are using it as a scare tactic.

00:54:40.000 So even if you get your news from TikTok, you think that this is all Donald Trump's plan.

00:54:46.000 That's all they got.

00:54:47.000 Let's jump to this story.

00:54:48.000 We got this from Interactive Polls.

00:54:49.000 Polly Market.

00:54:50.000 Will Joe Biden drop out of the presidential race?

00:54:53.000 In May, 13 percent.

00:54:53.000 In June, 26.

00:54:54.000 21 percent.

00:54:54.000 July 2nd, 50 percent.

00:55:00.000 So those who bought in in May are very, very happy we're there right now.

00:55:04.000 Now, here's the thing you gotta understand about these betting markets.

00:55:06.000 It's not like sports betting where you say, like, money line, I think so-and-so's gonna win.

00:55:10.000 They do, you get paid out.

00:55:12.000 The 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.

00:55:22.000 You'll say, okay, I'll buy 1,000 shares at 13 cents each.

00:55:28.000 Then, when it jumps to 50, you can sell all those shares.

00:55:32.000 You profit.

00:55:33.000 Or you hold onto them, hoping Joe Biden does drop out, and then you'll get a dollar for every share you bought.

00:55:39.000 But there are a lot of people who made money off this already by buying in that Joe Biden would not be—imagine this.

00:55:46.000 You go on, predict it.

00:55:47.000 Check this out.

00:55:48.000 Will Joe Biden resign during his first term?

00:55:51.000 26 cents.

00:55:53.000 So 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.

00:56:04.000 Imagine if you were like, all right, I'll buy a thousand shares at 11 cents.

00:56:07.000 Then the debate happened and it jumped to 20 cents.

00:56:10.000 Now you doubled your money.

00:56:12.000 Oh, it's higher than after the debate.

00:56:14.000 Of course!

00:56:15.000 The 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. 0.97

00:56:25.000 It's crazy.

00:56:27.000 Look at this right here.

00:56:28.000 And that's why Kamala Harris is up so far today.

00:56:30.000 Unpredicted, Joe Biden is down 19 cents.

00:56:34.000 So this means, you look at this.

00:56:36.000 You could have bought Kamala Harris, Newsom at $0.08.

00:56:38.000 Kamala Harris at $0.23. 0.51

00:56:38.000 You could have bought shares of Harris, June 26th for $0.05! 0.51

00:56:40.000 Look at that, $0.05!

00:56:41.000 And now she's at, where she's currently at $0.29. 0.99

00:56:42.000 at 23 cents, you could have bought shares of Harris June 26th for 5 cents!

00:56:48.000 Look at that, 5 cents!

00:56:50.000 And now she's at, where she's currently at, 29 cents. 1.00

00:56:54.000 600% return!

00:56:59.000 Not that I'm advocating anybody do anything like this.

00:57:01.000 I'm just saying.

00:57:02.000 I kind of feel like... I bring this up all the time.

00:57:04.000 We watch the news all day, every day.

00:57:06.000 We know what Nancy Pelosi's betting on.

00:57:08.000 I'm like, I should trade stock.

00:57:09.000 Right.

00:57:09.000 Because I'm like, how am I missing these stories?

00:57:12.000 We all knew the debate was going to be apocalyptic for Biden.

00:57:16.000 We could have got in on that.

00:57:17.000 Tell you though, I had no idea it was gonna be that bad.

00:57:19.000 His voice.

00:57:20.000 I don't know if you guys, were you guys just shocked back the moment?

00:57:23.000 On this show, the first word out of his mouth, everyone went, whoa!

00:57:27.000 I 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...

00:57:36.000 It was another man.

00:57:37.000 I'd never seen it before.

00:57:38.000 I'd never seen that.

00:57:39.000 Well, that's when they immediately started dispatching people to start leaking.

00:57:42.000 Oh, Biden has a cold.

00:57:43.000 You know, they came out and they started... He's had this cold for like six or seven months.

00:57:46.000 I 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.

00:57:58.000 And at the time they were like, how dare you say that?

00:58:00.000 It's crazy.

00:58:01.000 That's fake information that there's anything wrong with his voice.

00:58:04.000 I 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.

00:58:12.000 We just don't love that.

00:58:14.000 But then it was the media just parroted all the same information.

00:58:16.000 There was no one saying like, no, no, I know that I heard that his voice is bad.

00:58:20.000 I 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.

00:58:34.000 Well, the bar was so low, too.

00:58:36.000 The 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.

00:59:01.000 But he couldn't even do that much.

00:59:03.000 I think that's why the betting market was so, you know, skewed toward Joe Biden staying in the race and such before.

00:59:11.000 And then now it's.

00:59:13.000 This is the news cycle from 2020.

00:59:15.000 Stay alive, Joe Biden.

00:59:17.000 Democrats need little from the front runner beyond his corporeal presence.

00:59:21.000 Well, they're getting less than they need.

00:59:23.000 No, no, no.

00:59:23.000 When they were claiming it was cheap fakes, when we were calling out Joe Biden's failing health, they knew they were lying the whole time.

00:59:30.000 That's why I'm saying this is part of the plan.

00:59:32.000 CNN all of a sudden is like, oh, geez, oh, that performance was terrible.

00:59:36.000 They knew back in 2020 when The Atlantic wrote this.

00:59:39.000 They knew the dude was on the verge of death.

00:59:40.000 I'm wondering, did Jake Tapper not know?

00:59:42.000 I mean, he was in the room with them, like, 34 feet away from the guy.

00:59:45.000 So he must have been, like, just rocked to the core by how decrepit Joe had become.

00:59:50.000 They practically believe their own propaganda, right?

00:59:52.000 They are not allowed to question Joe Biden's health and they were told, well, he's fine.

00:59:55.000 It's fine.

00:59:56.000 And he really doesn't do that many interviews.

00:59:58.000 So they were falling in line with the things they were being told.

01:00:01.000 And I think that's sort of what got them into this mess.

01:00:04.000 I 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.

01:00:09.000 And 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.

01:00:17.000 They believe their own propaganda.

01:00:18.000 I still think Dana Bash and Jake Tapper were there to save him.

01:00:22.000 I think they were still on his team, but it was so bad that they couldn't even do anything about it.

01:00:26.000 I 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.

01:00:37.000 And, you know, so they were actively trying.

01:00:39.000 And they looked stressed to me.

01:00:41.000 They'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.

01:00:50.000 We talked about last night on the show when Joe Biden was trying to get off the stage after the debate.

01:00:54.000 They didn't look shocked.

01:00:55.000 This is not news to them.

01:00:57.000 They've known this all along, that Joe Biden's not in a good place.

01:01:00.000 He's not fit.

01:01:01.000 When he couldn't bend his knees and his wife had to hold his hand to get him down one step.

01:01:06.000 I 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?

01:01:13.000 If I see him going for a jog and like talking normal, yeah.

01:01:16.000 I was about to say golfing.

01:01:18.000 If he goes golfing and really does whatever he said he was going to do.

01:01:20.000 If he can get that six handicap again. 1.00

01:01:22.000 If he beats Trump.

01:01:23.000 Trump-Biden golf tournament.

01:01:25.000 That's where it's at.

01:01:26.000 Wasn't that what Dave Portnoy said?

01:01:28.000 He was like, forget this, it's settled on the golf course.

01:01:31.000 A six handicap. 0.99

01:01:32.000 That's nuts. 0.99

01:01:33.000 That's a ridiculous thing. 0.99

01:01:34.000 That was what shook Trump the most. 0.99

01:01:36.000 He was just appalled by that.

01:01:39.000 Well, Portnoy had the funny tweet where he was like, nothing Biden said phases Trump until he mentions he has a six handicap.

01:01:45.000 And then Trump nearly falls off the stage.

01:01:47.000 Well, then Trump hit him on that, and then he started backtracking a little bit, and then the next sentence was eight-handed.

01:01:52.000 So it went up.

01:01:53.000 So not a six, it was an eight.

01:01:55.000 It became an eight after that.

01:01:56.000 Even eight's crazy.

01:01:57.000 It is.

01:01:58.000 It's crazy for me, and I grew up golfing.

01:02:01.000 Well, I love Trump.

01:02:02.000 I've seen your swing.

01:02:06.000 I bet he has, you know?

01:02:08.000 Oh, dude, there's so many videos of Biden trying to golf, and it's hilariously bad.

01:02:14.000 We 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.

01:02:22.000 So I'm wondering if...

01:02:25.000 The news media now is all ramped up and afraid of Trump.

01:02:28.000 And so they're, like Joy Reid, seems very afraid.

01:02:31.000 Literally, Rachel Maddow seems scared.

01:02:33.000 But, like, I wonder if the deep state is thinking, like, maybe we can work with Trump actually now.

01:02:37.000 He's into Israel.

01:02:38.000 He's into the war machine.

01:02:40.000 Maybe we can work with this guy.

01:02:42.000 Are you not getting that vibe? No, not at all. No, no, I think like basically what I said earlier,

01:02:48.000 I think they're just, you know, they're panicking right now trying to throw Joe Biden out because

01:02:52.000 they're afraid, you know, President Trump is going to win again. They're terrified of that,

01:02:55.000 terrified, because it's not, I think this is a little bit different. Maybe they had some control

01:03:00.000 during the first term, but there were so many things that were learned from that first term.

01:03:04.000 I think that it's going to come in and we're going to see a totally different second term from Trump

01:03:09.000 where he's going to, you know, he's kind of at war with these people now, this deep state that

01:03:14.000 did everything they could to destroy him the first go around.

01:03:17.000 I think that this is a war.

01:03:18.000 I think he's going to be, you know, vindictive.

01:03:21.000 And they keep throwing around, they're like, he keeps saying revenge, he keeps saying vindictive, whatever else.

01:03:27.000 They use that as a reason that we have to keep Trump out, but why wouldn't you be?

01:03:30.000 I 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.

01:03:37.000 That's such a good line.

01:03:38.000 It 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.

01:03:45.000 I'm quoting Kennedy.

01:03:46.000 Kennedy said he was going to shatter the CIA into a million pieces and something like that.

01:03:52.000 So like if you, I hope that that's why I want to get Don, like lay off the rhetoric, brother.

01:03:58.000 You can still become president and like be a little subversive.

01:04:01.000 He did lay off the rhetoric though.

01:04:02.000 Yeah.

01:04:02.000 When he was asked by Hannity, would you be a dictator, he says, only on day one, and that's to drill for oil and like, what, bring jobs?

01:04:08.000 Close the border.

01:04:09.000 And then they went, he says he's going to be a dictator.

01:04:11.000 And then Trump's like, my retribution will be the success of this country and everyone will live well.

01:04:15.000 And they're like, he proved it!

01:04:17.000 Trump is not coming out saying he's going to bang an iron fist on the table and then destroy his enemies.

01:04:22.000 They're making that up.

01:04:24.000 That's why Orrin was like, Lord, give me!

01:04:26.000 Trump they've made up in their delusional And it's the people in the media that are making it up.

01:04:30.000 Trump'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.

01:04:42.000 It's absurd to think he's going to walk in with a golden ticket, a golden brush, and everything's perfect.

01:04:47.000 We're going to have some bad foreign policy, but I think we're going to have slightly better foreign policy.

01:04:51.000 We're going to move towards peace slightly away from war.

01:04:54.000 We're going to see better trade agreements.

01:04:56.000 We're going to see some inflation in some areas.

01:04:57.000 The tariffs to start will probably be not so fun for people, but it will start to heal in a lot of ways.

01:05:02.000 It is going to be a mixed bag, as it always would have been, because reform takes time.

01:05:06.000 But Trump's going to give us incremental gains that we want to see.

01:05:09.000 I get the feeling that the Empire, and when I say that, I mean the British Empire, it's the only empire left.

01:05:13.000 They shattered the Japanese Empire. 0.93

01:05:14.000 They shattered the Ottoman Empire. 0.97

01:05:15.000 The Empire is the British Empire that the United States has been co-opted into since 1941.

01:05:19.000 No, no, no.

01:05:21.000 I got to pause you real quick.

01:05:23.000 The U.S.

01:05:23.000 military base is everywhere.

01:05:25.000 The British Empire is a vassal state.

01:05:26.000 I know.

01:05:27.000 What do you even call it anymore?

01:05:28.000 It's like a conglomeration at this point of God knows what.

01:05:30.000 But I don't think they expected BRICS to do what it's doing.

01:05:33.000 I don't think they expected it to take off like it's taking off.

01:05:34.000 And I think they're desperate to solve this problem because it looks like they could lose and that the British Empire could be disseminated.

01:05:42.000 No, but the British Empire was basically absorbed into the US Empire.

01:05:46.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:05:47.000 It's more of a – because the Emperor doesn't have any power.

01:05:49.000 He's run by MI6.

01:05:51.000 Like, the CIA runs the United States.

01:05:53.000 Emperor.

01:05:53.000 Yeah, Emperor Charles.

01:05:56.000 But I truly believe they're concerned about BRICS.

01:06:00.000 I think the British Empire shattered.

01:06:02.000 And after World War II, the U.S.

01:06:04.000 took over.

01:06:05.000 The liberal economic order was created with the U.S.

01:06:08.000 as the primary controlling body.

01:06:11.000 NATO is a really great example of what this is. 0.77

01:06:13.000 That's Cold War.

01:06:14.000 And you look at... I was watching Fox News the other morning, and I'm talking to Allison, and they're mentioning all European U.S.

01:06:21.000 military bases on high alert.

01:06:22.000 And I was like, why the... do we have military bases all over Europe?

01:06:26.000 Does Spain have military bases all over other people's countries?

01:06:28.000 Does France?

01:06:29.000 Does Germany?

01:06:30.000 Why does the United States have military bases everywhere?

01:06:32.000 Is this normal to the American people to be like...

01:06:35.000 We just put our military bases in other people's countries.

01:06:38.000 It was when we shattered the Japanese Empire. 0.98

01:06:39.000 We put a base in Japan and we shattered the German Reich. 0.93

01:06:42.000 We took Europe in World War II.

01:06:45.000 And Japan.

01:06:45.000 We've occupied Germany since World War II and we still are occupying Germany to this day.

01:06:50.000 We occupied Japan since World War II and we are still occupying them. 1.00

01:06:54.000 Well, to be fair, Japan in the past several years, I believe under Trump, they finally got the right to rebuild their own army again.

01:07:00.000 But we're still occupying South Korea.

01:07:02.000 The United States is occupying all of these countries. 0.87

01:07:04.000 Well, there's so many countries you haven't even heard of that they have troops in at this point.

01:07:07.000 I believe it was Matt Gaetz that came out not too long ago and was like, why do we still have troops in Nepal?

01:07:14.000 I have no idea.

01:07:15.000 It's a great question.

01:07:16.000 Why do we?

01:07:16.000 Because they can't shrink the military at this point.

01:07:19.000 They lose their grip on it.

01:07:21.000 They're not going to get their $800 billion a year if they're not spending it on this stuff.

01:07:25.000 And the message is we are the world's police force for this idea of peacekeeper, right?

01:07:30.000 Everywhere needs us all the time, so we have to do this no matter what.

01:07:32.000 And even when we're funding every side of a conflict, it's important that we have troops somewhere else.

01:07:37.000 I 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.

01:07:46.000 And she was going through it.

01:07:47.000 And, you know, she at one point was like, Afghanistan, it's a really tough decision and whatever else.

01:07:52.000 But she was saying basically Biden makes decisions so that there are no American men and women in harm's way.

01:07:59.000 And that's just fundamentally not true.

01:08:01.000 So that worked out well for the 13 in Kabul?

01:08:02.000 Right.

01:08:03.000 This is fundamentally not true.

01:08:04.000 And I think that's one of the questions was why do we have military bases everywhere?

01:08:07.000 Like, do we really need to be there for the good of America?

01:08:10.000 I mean, meaning the American people or for the good of the government and the industries that props up by having them there?

01:08:18.000 To me, those are actually different things now.

01:08:19.000 That'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. 0.50

01:08:27.000 That was pretty terrifying.

01:08:27.000 That 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.

01:08:36.000 So, like, not having any defensive military capacity globally could allow for a nasty global provocation.

01:08:46.000 It is not the worst thing to have defensive structures all over the place, but at the same time, what's it costing us?

01:08:51.000 That's what Elad Eliyahu says.

01:08:53.000 He says, OK, if we are not the global police force, who steps into that role?

01:08:57.000 Have we set precedent now as the United States in this idea that there's going to be one superpower?

01:09:03.000 I think that's how they like it.

01:09:04.000 it. And that's his case for like maintaining our current military industrial complex, you know,

01:09:09.000 because it will China step in? Will Russia? You just mentioned bricks and the rise of that.

01:09:13.000 The Chinese are very coordinated. I see a lot of videos out of China. I don't know what's real and

01:09:17.000 what's not a lot of times, but like the way they move together. I think that's intentional.

01:09:21.000 And they want it. They want you to see these guys like you see them all climbing up the hill,

01:09:25.000 like a big line, the centipede of all these men just like left, right, left, right, left.

01:09:29.000 Like they are arming themselves for war right now.

01:09:31.000 They are training their citizenry for war right now.

01:09:34.000 Whether or not they're going to war is to be seen, but they're getting ready for war.

01:09:37.000 And I mean, they are on like a civilian level, like they're just pushing these people to coordinate.

01:09:42.000 Even 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.

01:09:50.000 That would be my next guess, is that the Chinese would go in and try and become the military police. 0.99

01:09:54.000 But they're like bureaucrats.

01:09:56.000 They don't want conflict.

01:09:58.000 I think they just want to defend themselves from the empire.

01:10:01.000 I mean, to me, all of this is fine and good, and we can talk about our presence across the globe, but why is our border open?

01:10:07.000 Why are we so bad at letting Chinese weather balloons, clearly a spy balloon, float across the country? 0.65

01:10:14.000 Because it came in at 3 a.m.

01:10:16.000 I'm fine if we think that we have a role.

01:10:18.000 I'm happy to have that conversation.

01:10:19.000 But 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.

01:10:30.000 I 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.

01:10:36.000 You 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.

01:10:44.000 And even with the deals they're striking, they're trying to make it like there's a minimum level of illegal immigration.

01:10:49.000 That's fine.

01:10:49.000 It doesn't make any sense.

01:10:51.000 And 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?

01:10:59.000 And whether that's by having military bases that we can deploy our troops to.

01:11:03.000 In 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?

01:11:10.000 You know, that has to be the priority before we say, well, what are we going to do about the rest of the globe?

01:11:14.000 Like, we have to have a loyalty to our own people first.

01:11:17.000 And I think that's what the Biden administration in particular doesn't want to talk about.

01:11:21.000 They talk about our obligations to everyone else, but not to our own citizens.

01:11:26.000 I'm very concerned with a conflict with Mexico, to be honest. 0.94

01:11:28.000 Like, I hear people mention it from time to time that we would go to war with Mexico.

01:11:31.000 Sounds insane because we've been such a dominating force, but as a proxy?

01:11:35.000 Like, 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.

01:11:46.000 And I mean, what a perfect opportunity to proxy and annihilate our country from the South through Mexico. 1.00

01:11:52.000 I 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.

01:12:07.000 I'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.

01:12:15.000 We'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.

01:12:19.000 We're just going to put them on a ship outside of this conflict.

01:12:21.000 I mean, that is more—that's so ridiculous to me in comparison to saying, like, look, we have a border.

01:12:26.000 We have to secure it.

01:12:27.000 Yeah, we should have, and maybe at this point, military bases on the southern border.

01:12:31.000 Like, we could spin up six new military bases across the southern border.

01:12:34.000 I would be open to that.

01:12:35.000 Like, I would be open to more military bases on the mainland, in the homeland.

01:12:39.000 I hear you.

01:12:40.000 It is expensive, though, to maintain these bases.

01:12:42.000 When have they ever cared about that?

01:12:45.000 But I have an idea.

01:12:46.000 I mean, what if instead of building a bunch of military bases, you know, with infrastructure and personnel, we just built a wall?

01:12:53.000 Like a big graphene wall.

01:12:55.000 Yeah, we should do that.

01:12:55.000 Just a big wall?

01:12:57.000 Graphene wall would be very hilarious.

01:12:58.000 What an idea!

01:12:59.000 Why hasn't anybody thought of this already?

01:13:00.000 I know!

01:13:01.000 I don't know, but you can electrify that stuff.

01:13:03.000 Electrify the wall?

01:13:04.000 Maybe put an alligator moat on the other side of it?

01:13:06.000 Oh, did you see this?

01:13:07.000 It 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.

01:13:13.000 And I'm like, you know, everybody's like, yeah, this sounds great.

01:13:15.000 You know, why would you not?

01:13:16.000 There's a river there!

01:13:17.000 There's already a river there!

01:13:19.000 Let's put the gators in the water! 1.00

01:13:20.000 We should wall it off, though.

01:13:22.000 That border needs to be walled off ASAP.

01:13:24.000 I'd like to bring you back to 2015, Ian.

01:13:26.000 Isn't that crazy?

01:13:27.000 And that really what bothers me, I think that maybe even the, I'm just going to call it

01:13:31.000 the empire, whatever it is, whatever this organism is that's controlling the West.

01:13:35.000 The enclave.

01:13:36.000 Yeah, right.

01:13:37.000 I don't think that they realized how bad this immigration thing could get and that they 0.99

01:13:40.000 disliked Trump's America first.

01:13:43.000 You think they knew?

01:13:44.000 Like Trump, his America obsession with like making America the leader still when the empire

01:13:48.000 is like, yo, we want to co-op you and make you part of something.

01:13:51.000 He's like, no, we are America.

01:13:53.000 They hated him so much that they were just willing to undo whatever he did.

01:13:57.000 Or their cronies like Biden, they were just going to undo it.

01:14:00.000 But then it got out of hand.

01:14:01.000 And now even Britain's suffering from mass immigration out of control. 1.00

01:14:05.000 Legal immigration in Europe and in the U.S.

01:14:07.000 didn't start in 2015 and Trump sort of noticed it, right?

01:14:09.000 This has been going on for years and years and years since the early 2000s.

01:14:13.000 I mean, even probably before that.

01:14:14.000 But it's been an ongoing problem in the U.S.

01:14:16.000 and with some of the crises in the Middle East and some of the other issues, it's spread into Europe and they have been experiencing it.

01:14:21.000 But it didn't start yesterday.

01:14:23.000 It didn't start four years ago.

01:14:24.000 It 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.

01:14:36.000 We think that we should cap migration.

01:14:38.000 We think that we should have a strong national identity that says this is something worth preserving.

01:14:42.000 And 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.

01:14:52.000 But it's OK because we could just bring in a bunch of people from somewhere else like anyone on the globe is interchangeable.

01:14:58.000 Paris is no longer Paris.

01:15:00.000 London is no longer London.

01:15:01.000 Go to these places right now, and they have been taken over, and there's no going back at this point.

01:15:06.000 What are you going to do?

01:15:07.000 Have you seen Marine Le Pen speaking fire-ishly about... There's a reason she just had huge victories. 1.00

01:15:13.000 She just won in the national parliament, is that what happened?

01:15:16.000 This is the French.

01:15:17.000 She's up for election in France, is that what it is?

01:15:19.000 And there's a couple different rounds.

01:15:21.000 First round, they, I mean, I don't know if I want to say swept, but they got pretty close to it.

01:15:26.000 Let's pull this up.

01:15:27.000 So this is from the other day, this is NPR.org, key takeaways from France's election round one, where the far right prevails.

01:15:34.000 Yeah, 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.

01:15:48.000 They're no longer just going to let it be given away.

01:15:50.000 The big problem, outside of all of this, fertility.

01:15:54.000 Outside of all the politics of it is fertility.

01:15:57.000 French people aren't having enough kids. 1.00

01:15:58.000 People in the United States aren't having enough kids. 0.99

01:16:00.000 That's the issue.

01:16:01.000 And regardless of what you do, if you want to maintain your country, your national identity, you got to have babies.

01:16:06.000 Yeah.

01:16:07.000 You have to have someone to pass down your unique cultural traditions to, right?

01:16:10.000 But there would be another way, like, look, there are ways to incentivize people to have children rather than just, you know, shipping people in.

01:16:17.000 I 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.

01:16:25.000 Can I just, I just want to, I want to read this.

01:16:27.000 The results from the first round Sunday were National Rally earned 33.15.

01:16:30.000 The New Popular Front Alliance of center-left socialists, greens and far-left, 28.14.

01:16:36.000 And Emmanuel Macron's centrist, 20.76.

01:16:42.000 Voter turnout was high at 59.39.

01:16:43.000 Look, we're seeing hyperpolarization across the board.

01:16:48.000 These are terrifying numbers.

01:16:50.000 The polarization in France is not going to lead to good things.

01:16:56.000 People 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.

01:17:11.000 What do you think the end result is going to be?

01:17:13.000 They're already rioting.

01:17:15.000 Yeah.

01:17:16.000 Well, 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.

01:17:24.000 So we already knew that, but how far are they going to take something like that?

01:17:28.000 How far are they going to go?

01:17:29.000 And, you know, what do we have to be worried about beyond that?

01:17:32.000 Because, you know, if the people are waking up and they're finally like, I'm surprised by this result.

01:17:37.000 I haven't been following this very closely, but, you know, I don't think anybody really expected Europe to finally wake up.

01:17:43.000 I'm hoping that we see that in the US as well. But go to places in in southern France

01:17:49.000 and stuff where the crime rate is through the roof. All the locals have been driven out and I don't

01:17:53.000 know how, what do you do besides mass deportations to fix that stuff at this point. I think

01:17:59.000 she's talking about arrests too, like like imprisonment for people, stripping people of their

01:18:03.000 actual citizenship if they adopt Islamist, radical Islamist ideals. I'm not exactly, it's kind of

01:18:08.000 vague.

01:18:09.000 It's kind of based.

01:18:10.000 Some vague rhetoric.

01:18:11.000 I'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?

01:18:21.000 Thirty-some percent, the most of any of them, seem to support this rhetoric.

01:18:25.000 And it's been on the rise.

01:18:27.000 You mentioned that you can incentivize people to have children and you see this especially in Eastern Europe.

01:18:33.000 There 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.

01:18:42.000 But there's a couple of them that are doing this because they say we believe in helping our people have their own family.

01:18:48.000 Rather 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. 1.00

01:18:58.000 And I think this is sort of reflective of the conversation that's happening in France.

01:19:02.000 Like 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.

01:19:17.000 And 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. 0.60

01:19:25.000 And I feel like that is so basic.

01:19:27.000 The fact that it's an extreme idea is upsetting.

01:19:30.000 You 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.

01:19:37.000 On 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.

01:19:46.000 And it's the most Christian thing is to take care of yourself before you try to take care of someone else.

01:19:52.000 Take 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.

01:19:57.000 Put your own air mask on before you try and secure the mask of the person next to you.

01:20:02.000 You have to protect the citizens of the country.

01:20:04.000 That is primary motive number one.

01:20:06.000 You support your citizens and then you'll be able to handle influx.

01:20:11.000 When did this become controversial though?

01:20:11.000 That's the only way.

01:20:13.000 Why are we even having to argue about whether or not that should be the top priority of the country?

01:20:17.000 I think it was, it is a reaction to Trump.

01:20:20.000 I think that's what it was because he was kind of saying those things.

01:20:23.000 Well, he wasn't articulating it like that.

01:20:24.000 People were like, Trump bad, anything Trump says bad, reverse.

01:20:29.000 No, that doesn't mean let everybody in in any in any capacity.

01:20:29.000 And like, what?

01:20:33.000 But it could also happen in cycles.

01:20:36.000 I don't know.

01:20:36.000 I think it's been happening for a long time, right?

01:20:38.000 But it just accelerated, I mean, so quickly though.

01:20:41.000 It's almost like, it seems like, you know, overnight almost.

01:20:44.000 I think it was when they said, come.

01:20:46.000 When Biden and Harris were like, you can come here.

01:20:49.000 They said something publicly, like real early on in his administration.

01:20:53.000 I thought it was Kamala saying, don't come.

01:20:55.000 Later she was like, don't come.

01:20:57.000 No, nevermind.

01:20:57.000 Don't come.

01:20:58.000 After she realized, oh God, what have we unleashed?

01:21:02.000 So Biden, like, kind of urged people to come to the states.

01:21:05.000 I don't remember.

01:21:05.000 It was early on.

01:21:06.000 I wish I could find the quote or pull off the quote off the top of my head.

01:21:08.000 And then after that, there was just a surge.

01:21:10.000 And then Kamala came out and was like, don't come.

01:21:12.000 Don't.

01:21:13.000 We made a mistake.

01:21:14.000 She didn't go that far.

01:21:14.000 She just said, don't.

01:21:15.000 Stop, please.

01:21:16.000 So 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.

01:21:30.000 Do not come.

01:21:32.000 Give it to me Kamala.

01:21:32.000 You're not coming.

01:21:34.000 She's serious.

01:21:35.000 I'm gonna come!

01:21:36.000 That was the meme.

01:21:36.000 I'm gonna come!

01:21:41.000 So you were saying, so 67% of the people are not for this?

01:21:45.000 Apparently they still support what's going on over there because they didn't vote against those policies.

01:21:49.000 They're voting in favor of the BS that's going on in Europe and France in particular.

01:21:54.000 Right now.

01:21:55.000 I 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.

01:22:04.000 And so it's like this form of ignorance.

01:22:04.000 Right.

01:22:07.000 The challenge is, it's always low IQ people, and disinterested people versus passionate people and higher IQ people.

01:22:16.000 This is why I think we need to restrict voting.

01:22:19.000 No question.

01:22:20.000 The voting restriction should be something reasonable and easy, but I believe- Landowners?

01:22:25.000 Nah, it's too difficult.

01:22:27.000 Landowners made sense when we had small communities and people were mostly farming.

01:22:31.000 But then we got to the, with industrialization and offices, people now rent apartments.

01:22:36.000 They don't intend to own something, they want to move somewhere later.

01:22:38.000 There's a lot, you know, this is frowned upon by the left almost all the time, but there is a reason to rent.

01:22:44.000 You'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.

01:22:55.000 But I think we need some kind of minor hurdle that keeps out disinterested people.

01:23:01.000 Vivek talks about civics tests, like high school civics tests.

01:23:04.000 I think selective service is the perfect option.

01:23:06.000 In order to vote, you sign up for Selective Service, and in response, they mail you your voter card.

01:23:11.000 Your voter card entitles you to vote.

01:23:13.000 You don't vote.

01:23:13.000 Don't have it?

01:23:14.000 Signing up for Selective Service is completely optional for men and women.

01:23:17.000 If you want to vote, you must sign up, and then you get your voter card.

01:23:20.000 You have skin in the game.

01:23:22.000 And we haven't had a draft in 50-some-odd years.

01:23:24.000 I don't expect there to be one.

01:23:25.000 But 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.

01:23:35.000 I'm not okay with that.

01:23:38.000 These women are voting Democrat heavily, and they're voting for war to put men in harm's way. 1.00

01:23:43.000 It's not equality.

01:23:45.000 If the men want to choose to fight and die for their country and the people they believe in, so be it.

01:23:49.000 But hold on.

01:23:50.000 That would mean the men who are forced to fight and die in wars would have a say in whether or not we do.

01:23:56.000 So I think selective service makes a lot of sense, and that would instantly remove all low-information and disinterested voters.

01:24:03.000 Democrats would no longer be able to do these big voter drives where they go to rock concerts and say, sign up to vote.

01:24:08.000 They're gonna be like, if I fill that out, you're saying I can get drafted.

01:24:11.000 Screw that!

01:24:12.000 I'm not doing that!

01:24:13.000 And then it's like, okay.

01:24:14.000 And then guess what?

01:24:15.000 All the low information, low IQ, disinterested voters are gone.

01:24:19.000 And what happens to your country?

01:24:20.000 It blossoms.

01:24:22.000 No, I think that's a really interesting idea, and that's the first time I'm ever hearing this, actually, so that's awesome.

01:24:28.000 But, you know, you're talking about Vivek.

01:24:30.000 I haven't heard what Vivek was saying, but you're saying it's civics?

01:24:33.000 Yeah, high school civics test.

01:24:34.000 So, 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.

01:24:48.000 Oh, really?

01:24:48.000 Well, see, the only problem with something like that that I can think of right off the bat is, what's the left going to do?

01:24:53.000 They're going to attack that as racist, they're going to say it's just a literacy test all over again.

01:24:58.000 How do you respond to that?

01:24:59.000 Yeah, I think that Selective Service makes more sense because you don't need to be smart to join the Selective Service.

01:25:03.000 You just need to be willing to serve the country.

01:25:05.000 And so therefore you get a say in where the country goes and what the country does.

01:25:09.000 Or who's going to decide for you.

01:25:10.000 Who's going to be your commander?

01:25:11.000 You get to decide because you're part of the game.

01:25:13.000 Do you think we have young people who want to serve the country? 1.00

01:25:16.000 I mean, some of this comes down to patriotism, right?

01:25:18.000 Someone who is like, yeah, I want to have skin in the game and I believe in this country and want to participate.

01:25:23.000 They would be like, yeah, no problem.

01:25:24.000 I'll take civics tests or I'll sign up for whatever.

01:25:27.000 It'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.

01:25:33.000 I 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.

01:25:41.000 But even if it's not military service, right?

01:25:43.000 Like 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.

01:25:52.000 Service doesn't have to be military, hypothetically.

01:25:54.000 And it'd be a lot better than just complaining online.

01:25:54.000 Yeah.

01:25:57.000 Like, I know a lot of people that just...

01:25:59.000 Well, hey, and that's kind of what I do for a living.

01:25:59.000 Post online.

01:26:01.000 I 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.

01:26:08.000 Like, it's one thing, like, complaining because there's a problem and, like, suggesting solutions.

01:26:12.000 That's a different story.

01:26:13.000 But the people that are just like, bad, bad, bad thing, bad thing.

01:26:17.000 Like, you can serve in other ways.

01:26:18.000 Maybe that even feels like they're doing their duty, but it's not.

01:26:21.000 I think that we need more service.

01:26:24.000 But, I mean, how would you define it exactly?

01:26:27.000 Oh, I just think service can be – it could be military and that's great, but it also could be civil, right?

01:26:32.000 Like you could – I don't remember which president had one of these programs where you like go build roads.

01:26:37.000 I mean there are things you could do.

01:26:38.000 FDR?

01:26:38.000 Yeah, FDR.

01:26:40.000 You could do things in service of your country that don't have to be necessarily – don't have to be deploying.

01:26:45.000 I 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.

01:26:50.000 But 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?

01:26:57.000 I 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.

01:27:05.000 Yeah, if you're doing it right, I think a lot of people are excited because we do need a reinvestiture in our infrastructure.

01:27:10.000 We need another industrialization.

01:27:14.000 Like, the New Deal. 0.62

01:27:15.000 Not this goofy thing called the Green New Deal.

01:27:17.000 I'm talking about a complete revamp of our roads using graphene, putting them in so they last three times longer.

01:27:23.000 New buildings, new houses, new rails so that the railways don't get warped.

01:27:27.000 Like, we could send 30 million people to work on taxpayer dollars.

01:27:30.000 We'd have to print a lot of money, but we might end up making money in the process.

01:27:34.000 The problem is, if we do that, who's going to fund blowing up children overseas? 0.69

01:27:39.000 The British.

01:27:40.000 And the 800 military bases we were just talking about.

01:27:43.000 Yeah, 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. 1.00

01:27:58.000 I 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.

01:28:09.000 We need high-speed rails to get our troops across the country just for national defense.

01:28:13.000 I prefer you to write to Pete Buttigieg, who's really managing all of this super well.

01:28:19.000 And from the South to the North, too.

01:28:20.000 Like, I'd be open to building a high-speed rail from Los Angeles to Alaska.

01:28:24.000 Why can't we do that?

01:28:25.000 Crash and spill chemicals everywhere.

01:28:26.000 That'd be great, too.

01:28:27.000 Oh, jeez.

01:28:28.000 The East Palestine thing.

01:28:29.000 Oh, my gosh.

01:28:30.000 Yeah, I confronted him there in East Palestine, Ohio.

01:28:32.000 Pete Buttigieg, we were talking about.

01:28:33.000 And, you know, I asked him, like, specifically, You know, why do you keep blaming Trump for all your failures?

01:28:39.000 You've been in office for years now.

01:28:41.000 Why do you keep blaming Trump for that?

01:28:43.000 Because he doesn't actually do anything.

01:28:45.000 He's not capable of doing anything either.

01:28:47.000 But the Democrats have been trying to build that high-speed rail out in California for the longest time.

01:28:52.000 It goes to nowhere.

01:28:53.000 Who wants to go from Bakersfield to Modesto, California?

01:28:56.000 You know, it costs $10 billion already and they haven't done anything.

01:28:59.000 So the question is, you know, because you're talking about, okay, we need to improve our infrastructure and build new rail and stuff.

01:29:05.000 Are we even capable of doing that anymore?

01:29:07.000 Where did we go wrong?

01:29:08.000 Why are we so bad at this now?

01:29:09.000 Well, there's like a... It's not the money!

01:29:11.000 No, it's more of an ignorance problem because I think people don't understand the materials that we would use.

01:29:15.000 We'd use new materials like graphene instead of iron, you know, for our railways.

01:29:20.000 We'd have like really lightweight, strong rails that would last us 60 years and wouldn't warp.

01:29:26.000 But once people figure out how, then they get excited and they realize they can.

01:29:31.000 It'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.

01:29:42.000 I'd love to see that high-speed rail out of California get finished.

01:29:44.000 I don't know much about it, to be honest. 0.99

01:29:47.000 Well, I think it's a total crap show, and it always has been. 0.95

01:29:52.000 It's how many tens of billions of dollars over budget at this point? 0.99

01:29:55.000 They haven't done anything.

01:29:56.000 I think that what they've completed so far was an overpass.

01:30:00.000 That's what I read anyway.

01:30:01.000 That's the only part of the...

01:30:03.000 Uh, of the new span that's been built in the past 10 years or something.

01:30:07.000 Just something crazy.

01:30:09.000 It's almost like, it's almost a joke at this point.

01:30:11.000 We've got Gavin Newsom even backing off of it.

01:30:14.000 And, you know... Well, he's preparing to run for president.

01:30:16.000 He can't be associated with failed infrastructure projects.

01:30:17.000 Exactly, exactly.

01:30:19.000 We could model off of these foreign countries that are building them.

01:30:21.000 I think Japan has one now, maybe.

01:30:25.000 Look at China's high-speed rail network.

01:30:27.000 It's incredible.

01:30:28.000 They're ready for war.

01:30:28.000 They're preparing for war.

01:30:29.000 They're preparing to ship their troops across the country in a matter of hours.

01:30:32.000 I don't think they're shipping them.

01:30:32.000 I think they're just coming across the southern border.

01:30:34.000 That's true, yeah.

01:30:35.000 I'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.

01:30:43.000 Yes, that does happen, but the majority of people are not.

01:30:45.000 They're from other South American countries or even China.

01:30:48.000 That they're like, hey, I think I know how to get in there.

01:30:48.000 What does that tell you?

01:30:51.000 But why is nobody answering the question as to how they're getting there?

01:30:53.000 How are these massive groups of military-age Chinese men getting into Southern California?

01:31:00.000 Because that's where they're all going now.

01:31:02.000 Big groups of them.

01:31:04.000 You're telling me the Chinese don't know this?

01:31:06.000 The Chinese government tracks every single movement in that country.

01:31:09.000 They know how these people are getting there.

01:31:11.000 Do you think they're coming through the Darien Gap in Panama?

01:31:14.000 No, that's not what I'm saying.

01:31:15.000 I'm saying they're leaving China And the Chinese government knows that they're coming over here. 1.00

01:31:21.000 But how much of a hand do they have in it?

01:31:23.000 It seems like they would have to have some sort of a hand to get thousands and thousands of Chinese people into the United States.

01:31:29.000 Yeah, if they didn't, they'd be contacting our government and be like, give us our people back.

01:31:32.000 There's people over there.

01:31:33.000 We want them.

01:31:34.000 Don't let them be there.

01:31:35.000 That's obvious.

01:31:36.000 It seems pretty obvious they want them here.

01:31:38.000 And to continue on with what you're saying about the Californian high-speed rail, is that a state project?

01:31:43.000 Is that all state-funded?

01:31:44.000 That's a problem, because states run out of money really quick.

01:31:46.000 But 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.

01:31:59.000 That might be a viable investment that we could actually get done.

01:32:02.000 The white pill here is Elon's trying to just put trains on roads via his, uh, the actual semi, the Tesla semi.

01:32:08.000 And because they're autonomous, you'd have one driver for like 10 Tesla semis, virtually a train on our existing roadways.

01:32:16.000 So he's, I mean, he's rejecting rails.

01:32:18.000 We're far away from that solution, but it is coming.

01:32:22.000 Uh, as much as I love my Tesla, ah, dude, this thing has nearly killed me several times.

01:32:28.000 What kind of things has it done?

01:32:30.000 Well, you cannot rely on self-driving right now.

01:32:34.000 And with all due respect, I'm a big fan of Elon Musk.

01:32:36.000 I'm a big fan of self-driving.

01:32:37.000 I use it most of the time.

01:32:39.000 But you better keep your hands on the wheel.

01:32:42.000 I was driving in Hagerstown.

01:32:44.000 I was going to the skate park.

01:32:45.000 And there's a car in front of me.

01:32:48.000 Did not stop abruptly.

01:32:50.000 Started slowing down and went to make a right turn into a parking lot.

01:32:55.000 And the Tesla did not stop.

01:32:57.000 And 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.

01:33:03.000 And then it was like, brrp, brrp, brrp, and I was like, Autopilot's engaged, what happened?

01:33:06.000 And I was like, you were gonna hit that car?

01:33:09.000 There was a report like two weeks ago from California of this Tesla in Autopilot crashing into a cop car.

01:33:15.000 I 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.

01:33:44.000 So it's not helping us.

01:33:45.000 The 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.

01:33:55.000 So 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.

01:34:01.000 The issue isn't the electricity.

01:34:03.000 It's the alkali metal.

01:34:04.000 It's not that either one of these things are bad.

01:34:07.000 When you spray lithium with water, you're just, you're oxidizing the lithium, which creates an, I believe, an exothermic reaction.

01:34:13.000 So you're actually just going, like, you can't mix water and lithium.

01:34:16.000 So either way, the point stands, like, you can't just send a regular fire truck to go spray water on this thing.

01:34:21.000 You have to equip it with another way of putting out these fires.

01:34:24.000 So again, like, it's not that I am anti, I am anti-technology in so many senses.

01:34:27.000 But in this case, you know, I love the creativity.

01:34:30.000 It would be cool.

01:34:31.000 On the other hand, these are not solutions that we'll get any We need better batteries and roads that charge the cars from underneath.

01:34:36.000 In Britain, they're experimenting with these.

01:34:38.000 They've got stretches of roads where it'll charge your electric car as you drive over it.

01:34:42.000 Well, Britain's a smaller landmass, so it'll always be easier to make these mass changes than it will in America.

01:34:47.000 No, no, no, we're going to go to SuperChats, so get your last point in.

01:34:50.000 But where did all this bipartisan infrastructure bill or whatever, the $1.3 trillion, where did all that money go?

01:34:58.000 Because, you know, you're talking about a lot of it was supposed to be for charging stations and such.

01:35:01.000 Where have they built these charging stations?

01:35:03.000 I hope that they are doing underground building, because I haven't seen it.

01:35:05.000 They've only popped up a small number.

01:35:08.000 The secret underground city?

01:35:10.000 I hope they're getting the wiring done ahead of time, and then they're going to pop all the charging stations up at once, I hope.

01:35:16.000 Because it doesn't look like a lot's come out of this yet.

01:35:19.000 Pete Buttigieg was taking some heat for that the other day.

01:35:21.000 I think Elon Musk even tweeted about it, being like, OK, $10 billion has been spent, and there is one new charging station.

01:35:26.000 Let me read that again.

01:35:27.000 One new charging station.

01:35:28.000 I'd like to see how much of that is administrative costs.

01:35:30.000 We'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.

01:35:39.000 We're gonna have a members-only, uncensored show coming up for you tonight.

01:35:42.000 It's gonna be a lot of fun.

01:35:44.000 We'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.

01:35:57.000 We hope not.

01:35:58.000 Well, Raymond, I'm buying it, and I'm going to call it whatever I want from now on.

01:36:01.000 From now on it's called Vice!

01:36:03.000 says, Tim, you big city folks come to the woods to tell us how to pronounce names we

01:36:07.000 grew up with.

01:36:08.000 Harumph, I say.

01:36:09.000 Weiss Markets is pronounced Weiss, good sir.

01:36:11.000 Well, Raymond, I'm buying it and I'm going to call it whatever I want from now on.

01:36:16.000 From now on it's called Weiss.

01:36:17.000 Weiss Supermarket.

01:36:19.000 Now I think it's like, it's German, right?

01:36:22.000 That's, it'd be Weiss if it was German. 0.97

01:36:23.000 It'd be Weiss.

01:36:24.000 Isn't it?

01:36:24.000 Somebody call the CEO.

01:36:26.000 They must have a pronunciation tab on their About section on their website.

01:36:29.000 Weiss?

01:36:31.000 Weiss.

01:36:32.000 Is it Weiss?

01:36:33.000 There's a Weiss potato chips in PA too, like a brand.

01:36:36.000 W-E-I-S though. 0.86

01:36:37.000 Right, so I've always heard Weiss, and I'm from the area, so.

01:36:40.000 Right, everyone says Weiss.

01:36:41.000 Yeah.

01:36:42.000 But I'm like, if it's German, it'd be Weiss. 0.85

01:36:45.000 Yeah.

01:36:46.000 Weiss sounds cooler anyway.

01:36:48.000 Let's go.

01:36:48.000 What a good dad.

01:36:49.000 Yeah, that'd be fun.

01:36:50.000 I'll be attending the New Kids on the Block concert during your show.

01:36:53.000 My wife and kids' happiness matters more, I guess.

01:36:55.000 Please invite said band onto the Culture Show so I can finally get my wife to watch.

01:36:59.000 What a good dad.

01:37:00.000 That'd be fun. I'd be totally down for that.

01:37:02.000 I like when we get messages like that where it's like dad's like,

01:37:06.000 my wife's in labor, it's her birthday, I'm going to this thing with my kids.

01:37:09.000 Like, this is what we need. Active family men in America.

01:37:12.000 The new kids on the block were huge when I was in third grade.

01:37:14.000 Really?

01:37:15.000 All the girls loved them so much and we were all so jealous.

01:37:17.000 Did I know any of their songs?

01:37:18.000 You're just aging yourself over there.

01:37:20.000 What was their biggest song?

01:37:22.000 Right stuff.

01:37:23.000 Oh, oh, oh.

01:37:24.000 Oh, wow.

01:37:25.000 I remember that one.

01:37:26.000 All right, Aquafan says, I find it odd to say 4th of July.

01:37:29.000 I don't celebrate 25th of December.

01:37:31.000 I celebrate Christmas.

01:37:33.000 Likewise, I don't say celebrate 4th of July.

01:37:35.000 I say celebrate Independence Day.

01:37:37.000 Did you know that the signing was July 2nd?

01:37:41.000 Hmm.

01:37:41.000 Yeah.

01:37:42.000 Does he celebrate MAGA month?

01:37:43.000 I mean, let's see.

01:37:44.000 Are you celebrating MAGA month over there?

01:37:47.000 MAGA month.

01:37:48.000 Every corporation's got to change their profile photos to red, white, and blue.

01:37:52.000 That's what we do.

01:37:54.000 Mega month.

01:37:54.000 America month.

01:37:56.000 We don't just get one day.

01:37:57.000 Where does it come from?

01:38:00.000 I assume it has something to do with the ease of dyes back in the day.

01:38:03.000 Access.

01:38:04.000 Because basically every country is red, white, and blue.

01:38:06.000 A lot of them.

01:38:07.000 You ever see those?

01:38:08.000 You know what's really funny?

01:38:10.000 I always love pointing out the Dutch flags that are everywhere.

01:38:12.000 And they say open on them.

01:38:14.000 Have you noticed that?

01:38:15.000 Businesses will fly a Dutch flag with open on it.

01:38:18.000 And 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?

01:38:25.000 There 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.

01:38:32.000 I think it might.

01:38:35.000 Maybe I'm just making something up, but.

01:38:38.000 Dutch 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.

01:38:47.000 I don't know.

01:38:47.000 It could be.

01:38:48.000 This is saying that the red, white, and blue are symbolic of different virtues that they wanted.

01:38:53.000 It doesn't say anything about dye, but I could be wrong.

01:38:55.000 But every country is red, white, and blue.

01:38:56.000 Russia, France, Dutch, America.

01:38:59.000 They're good values.

01:39:00.000 People want to have these things in common.

01:39:01.000 Red, white, and blue.

01:39:03.000 Let's go.

01:39:06.000 How 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?

01:39:15.000 He hasn't got leeway, but I think he still should be strategic.

01:39:18.000 Trump.

01:39:19.000 What did you discover?

01:39:20.000 There are two flags.

01:39:21.000 The open flag and the Dutch flag.

01:39:22.000 They look similar, but they're different flags, actually.

01:39:24.000 So they're flying the open flag.

01:39:26.000 It's not the Dutch flag, even though I guess maybe it looks nearly identical.

01:39:28.000 Identical.

01:39:29.000 It's red, white, and blue.

01:39:30.000 Red from the top, blue on the bottom.

01:39:31.000 It says it's the same colors as the Dutch flag.

01:39:33.000 Red, white, and blue.

01:39:34.000 Often used by small businesses, shops, and restaurants to indicate that they're open.

01:39:37.000 Why?

01:39:37.000 The connection originated from the Dutch flag during the Dutch Golden Age.

01:39:41.000 So it sounds like you're right.

01:39:42.000 Dutch ships would fly the flag, but due to the high cost of orange dye, they'd substitute it with red.

01:39:48.000 And then these red flags would then be left in markets and ports where shop owners and traders would take them.

01:39:52.000 And sew the word open onto them.

01:39:54.000 My presumption was mostly correct.

01:39:56.000 Leftover flags from the Dutch. 0.81

01:39:58.000 The Dutch would fly flags to the trading post.

01:40:00.000 People assumed that meant merchants and trade.

01:40:02.000 And so it has become a tradition in America to fly a Dutch flag with the word open on it.

01:40:06.000 Now it is the open flag.

01:40:06.000 Because there was like a gas station with 50 of them.

01:40:09.000 And I was like, it's just weird that you're flying all these Dutch flags.

01:40:12.000 But I get it.

01:40:13.000 It makes sense.

01:40:14.000 You're really pro-Dutch people.

01:40:15.000 You're not going to learn that on any other podcast.

01:40:17.000 It's still unclear.

01:40:18.000 No one knows for sure where, but that's kind of the idea.

01:40:20.000 That's gotta be it.

01:40:21.000 Conclusion.

01:40:22.000 Thanks, AI.

01:40:23.000 Yeah.

01:40:25.000 Max Reddick says, love to see you call out Destiny on X. I feel like I'm slowly losing more respect for him.

01:40:30.000 Looking forward to the next time he's on IRL or the Culture War. 0.55

01:40:33.000 Well, this was because we're at this point where I know Destiny's not stupid. 0.99

01:40:37.000 I know the Krasensteins aren't stupid. 0.98

01:40:39.000 So when they make these posts where they're like, well, yeah, but, you know, Joe Biden did this. 0.98

01:40:43.000 I'm like, dude, no one believes you guys actually think this.

01:40:47.000 You wouldn't shower with your daughter too? 1.00

01:40:48.000 But there are stupid liberals that we know are cognitively lacking and they can't comprehend basic You know, political function. 1.00

01:40:57.000 Destiny's a smart guy. 1.00

01:40:59.000 I know he reads the news.

01:41:00.000 There is no way that he and David Pakman and the Krasensteins are not aware that what they're saying is false.

01:41:07.000 An 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?

01:41:19.000 And Ted Cruz was like, It was in the New York Times.

01:41:23.000 And then you hear a producer start laughing.

01:41:25.000 And David Pakman, in his video, is like, I can't believe this guy.

01:41:29.000 They're laughing at him!

01:41:30.000 And I'm like, I know David reads the news.

01:41:32.000 I know he read the New York Times and Politico.

01:41:35.000 I know he knows that story is true.

01:41:37.000 I'm gonna pull it up.

01:41:38.000 I'm gonna pull up so you can see.

01:41:40.000 Ukraine.

01:41:41.000 Interfere.

01:41:42.000 Trump.

01:41:42.000 Politico.

01:41:43.000 Back in 2017.

01:41:45.000 Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump backfired.

01:41:47.000 There you go.

01:41:47.000 Let's pull this one up.

01:41:49.000 This is it.

01:41:50.000 January 11, 2017.

01:41:52.000 Ukrainian effort to sabotage Trump backfire.

01:41:54.000 This is what led to Manafort's criminal conviction.

01:41:56.000 The Ukrainians were trying to help Hillary Clinton win the 2016 election.

01:42:00.000 Ukrainian government officials tried to help Hillary Clinton and undermine Trump

01:42:03.000 by publicly questioning his fitness for office.

01:42:06.000 They also disseminated documents implicating a top Trump aide in corruption

01:42:09.000 and suggested they were investigating the matter, only to back away after the election.

01:42:13.000 And they helped Clinton allies research damaging information on Trump and his advisors,

01:42:17.000 a Politico investigation found. 1.00

01:42:19.000 And David Pakman is like, He's so stupid, they're laughing at him. 1.00

01:42:22.000 And I'm like, David, I know you read this. 1.00

01:42:24.000 I know you know the news.

01:42:25.000 I know you're lying. 1.00

01:42:27.000 Unless you really are stupid, I guess. 1.00

01:42:28.000 I don't know. 1.00

01:42:28.000 Can't use Google? 1.00

01:42:29.000 With Steve and Destiny, I know he's smart.

01:42:33.000 There's no way he's not reading these stories.

01:42:36.000 He may not be reading because he does talk a lot and listen a lot.

01:42:39.000 So he might not read as much news.

01:42:41.000 I don't know.

01:42:41.000 But he's so smart.

01:42:42.000 I wonder if he's playing controlled opposition on purpose sometimes.

01:42:45.000 Make money?

01:42:46.000 Yeah, and to generate controversy, and to get the conversation flowing.

01:42:49.000 Oh, the Krasensteins, for sure.

01:42:50.000 They're playing the heel.

01:42:52.000 Like, that's it.

01:42:53.000 There'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.

01:43:01.000 Like, when things attack Elon, they come to his defense.

01:43:05.000 The argument being like, well, he supported their free speech.

01:43:07.000 And I'm like, yeah, dude.

01:43:08.000 You cannot live in the same perspective as Elon Musk, and then disagree with these things that are coming in the press.

01:43:15.000 Because we're not arguing politics.

01:43:18.000 No one here is arguing, I don't know, tax policy.

01:43:21.000 We're arguing, is Biden cognitively fit?

01:43:25.000 And we've known since 2020 and before that the answer is no, and the media has lied about it.

01:43:30.000 We now know because they're starting to admit it.

01:43:32.000 Glenn Greenwald roasting them.

01:43:33.000 They've known the whole time, but they don't want to admit it because they'll lose access.

01:43:37.000 So when we were pointing out all of these videos of Biden stumbling and bumbling and saying nonsense words, the media called them cheap fakes.

01:43:44.000 Because they were worried they would lose access to the White House.

01:43:47.000 That is Destiny.

01:43:48.000 That is David Pakman.

01:43:49.000 That is the Krasensteins.

01:43:51.000 They lie to you because they're scared of losing access.

01:43:54.000 How fun.

01:43:55.000 Yeah, 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.

01:44:03.000 Harry is not, I, I, look, I've, I've known Harry for over a year now.

01:44:07.000 He 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. 0.83

01:44:16.000 And it's paying off for him well. 0.99

01:44:18.000 I mean, look, he's getting bigger and bigger and bigger.

01:44:19.000 He thrives off the controversy.

01:44:22.000 Because 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.

01:44:31.000 Fox News was pushing his tweets out yesterday.

01:44:34.000 All press is good press.

01:44:35.000 All press is good press for some of these people, and it's working for him.

01:44:37.000 All right, let's read some more.

01:44:40.000 Cameron Keir says, how long until the New York Times starts running stories about the 10% for the big guy?

01:44:46.000 Yep.

01:44:47.000 They're going to start coming out and saying all of these things are true because the move now is to get Joe Biden to resign.

01:44:53.000 Or drop out or whatever.

01:44:54.000 Open convention, maybe?

01:44:56.000 Yeah, 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.

01:45:01.000 So they're using it as like a bargaining chip at this point, where you step aside.

01:45:04.000 Gabriel Lopez says, life extension is not happening.

01:45:07.000 We have prevented people from dying earlier, but not extended life in any way.

01:45:10.000 Genesis 6.3, God, right before the flood, God put a cap of 120 years on us.

01:45:16.000 Well, my understanding, and this is cursory scientific review, is that the average human being has a potential lifespan of 190 years before absolute collapse.

01:45:29.000 However, this would require, like, perfect cellular regeneration in line with, like,

01:45:37.000 standard aging.

01:45:38.000 So the issue typically is that by the time we reach around 79, 80 years old, the defects

01:45:42.000 have piled up to the point where an organ fails and then you get a cascade failure.

01:45:47.000 But generally, based on telomeres breaking down and the aging process, the estimate is

01:45:53.000 that even with perfect medical intervention, humans can't live past around 190, because

01:45:58.000 then your cells just collapse.

01:46:01.000 You turn into jelly.

01:46:01.000 You're done.

01:46:02.000 How old do you want to live to, though?

01:46:04.000 I mean, it seems like after a certain point, I mean, do you want to live much longer than Joe Biden?

01:46:08.000 I want to live until I don't want to live anymore.

01:46:10.000 The question is, how long do you want to be old?

01:46:12.000 And so there's these great philosophical discussions that I recommend people Google search and read about.

01:46:17.000 And the question that people often bring up is, oh, you get old, you don't want to live anymore.

01:46:21.000 People say, I'm too old.

01:46:22.000 No, the question is, How old do you want to be and for how long?

01:46:27.000 So I think research surveys typically find that people, if a person was 24 forever, they'd never want to die.

01:46:36.000 Sure.

01:46:36.000 Why would you?

01:46:38.000 And 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.

01:46:46.000 I mean, some people are.

01:46:47.000 It's because their friends are all dead.

01:46:49.000 And it's a culture clash.

01:46:52.000 So, 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.

01:47:00.000 If you today teleported 50 years into the past, it would be very, very hard for you to navigate that world.

01:47:08.000 How do you set a meeting?

01:47:09.000 How do you find the news?

01:47:10.000 What do you do?

01:47:11.000 Now, 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.

01:47:25.000 Nobody does it anymore.

01:47:26.000 I used to, that's why.

01:47:27.000 I used to read through my book of phone numbers and memorize everybody's name and number.

01:47:30.000 But it's worse than that, too, because that's technological shock.

01:47:35.000 The culture shock would be that if you today went back a hundred years, you would not like it.

01:47:41.000 Not a single conservative Christian Trump-supporting American would want to live a hundred years ago under blasphemy laws. 1.00

01:47:46.000 You wouldn't want to live under those laws, even Christian ones. 1.00

01:47:49.000 There's a lot of Christians who are probably saying right now, that's great, Yeah, I think they'd not enjoy it. 0.98

01:47:55.000 And I think that's why modern conservatives are fans of free speech.

01:47:58.000 But going back in the day, swearing in public and getting arrested?

01:48:00.000 Nah, people would be like, this is a little too much for me.

01:48:03.000 I kind of think that we've done pretty well, but we're upset about degeneracy.

01:48:06.000 That I can respect.

01:48:07.000 Mick Jagger has a lot of young friends.

01:48:09.000 I was just watching him.

01:48:09.000 He said a lot of his people his age have died in scenes like that.

01:48:12.000 I guess that's why I got a lot of young friends.

01:48:14.000 And he's super youthful for being, what, 85 or whatever the hell he's dancing on stage.

01:48:18.000 I don't know yet.

01:48:19.000 80-something, I think.

01:48:20.000 Pretty impressive.

01:48:21.000 All right.

01:48:21.000 VeryAngryCitizen says, Tim, your 6 p.m.

01:48:23.000 video hit home hard.

01:48:25.000 In 2019-2020, I was able to afford a car payment and small extras.

01:48:29.000 I'm making $4K more, but on a dime and a nickel budget with zero subscriptions and no extras, barely living.

01:48:36.000 That was the... I showed the chart where actual household wealth has declined based on inflation.

01:48:44.000 So it looks like people are making more money.

01:48:46.000 They're getting raises, but they're actually going down.

01:48:50.000 And they know it!

01:48:51.000 And the media's been lying about it.

01:48:52.000 Walgreens just announced they're shutting down 2,150 locations.

01:48:57.000 This is insane!

01:48:59.000 So there's a lot of older people who are going to be like, where do I go to get my medicine? 0.81

01:49:03.000 This happened in San Francisco.

01:49:05.000 There was a story where they shut down like three or four Dwayne Reeds or something, or Targets.

01:49:10.000 And these are pharmacies.

01:49:11.000 And there are elderly people who now, they can't walk two or three blocks. 1.00

01:49:15.000 It's difficult for them.

01:49:16.000 And now their local pharmacy is gone and they don't know where to go.

01:49:19.000 But how long can the media get away with lying about it and actually making a difference?

01:49:23.000 Because at some point you're going to start living it.

01:49:25.000 You're gonna start knowing it day-to-day-to-day.

01:49:27.000 You go to the grocery store.

01:49:29.000 You know, if you go and shop for your own groceries, you know darn well that inflation has been through the roof these past few years.

01:49:35.000 Your grocery bill is, you know, at least, what, 25-30% higher than it was four years ago?

01:49:41.000 Zillow... I mean, you just know.

01:49:43.000 A hundred thousand dollars to comfortably afford a home.

01:49:46.000 It was sixty thousand four years ago.

01:49:49.000 The narrative is that, like, they'll say, I've raised more money than you did when you were president.

01:49:55.000 And like, but it's you need to use percentages.

01:49:57.000 So maybe you raised a million dollars, but if there's ten trillion in circulation, a million is what?

01:50:02.000 One point one percent.

01:50:03.000 If 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

01:50:30.000 Maybe that was a little confusing.

01:50:31.000 I'll explain that later again.

01:50:32.000 over and over again.

01:50:33.000 Harry Lawrence says, problem with that theory.

01:50:35.000 If Biden steps down, Harris becomes president and Speaker of the House becomes VP and President

01:50:39.000 of the Senate where Dems will no longer have a majority.

01:50:42.000 No, I don't think that's how it works.

01:50:43.000 That's the line of succession for the president, but I don't think the Speaker becomes the

01:50:46.000 VP.

01:50:47.000 Someone want to fact check that?

01:50:49.000 Well, I know we were talking about this a little bit earlier where I don't think it's linear.

01:50:52.000 I 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.

01:51:04.000 I think that's the way that it works.

01:51:09.000 And in that case, I don't even think The vice president, I think, becomes acting president for... Right, acting president.

01:51:17.000 Yeah, so it's not linear, I don't believe.

01:51:19.000 The speaker of the house doesn't automatically become the vice president.

01:51:21.000 Right, they choose someone, don't they?

01:51:23.000 Yeah.

01:51:23.000 I mean, who didn't have a vice president?

01:51:26.000 Was it, um... I don't know.

01:51:27.000 What happened with Gerald Ford?

01:51:28.000 I can't remember.

01:51:30.000 I'll do some Googling quietly over here.

01:51:33.000 Well, let's read some more Super Chats while we're at it.

01:51:36.000 Kai says, polls are false flag.

01:51:38.000 Still campaign like you were 10 points behind.

01:51:40.000 Agreed?

01:51:40.000 Amen, brother.

01:51:41.000 Yeah, 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.

01:51:51.000 He said, ignore all the polls.

01:51:53.000 Ignore the polls.

01:51:54.000 Don't pay attention to them, because people are going to get complacent, and they're going to think, oh, well, you know, what's the point?

01:51:59.000 I'm not going to waste time going to vote.

01:52:00.000 There's no point.

01:52:01.000 Trump's going to sweep.

01:52:02.000 Right.

01:52:02.000 And people are saying all 50 states, he's going to win all 50 states.

01:52:05.000 Like that's not the attitude that we need to be having right now.

01:52:07.000 Well, and even if he is, you know, it matters down ticket.

01:52:10.000 Great.

01:52:10.000 If 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.

01:52:18.000 A state like Montana, where it's right on the edge of potentially flipping, pay attention to your state and local races.

01:52:22.000 If 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.

01:52:32.000 How do they swap Biden out without affecting the ballots?

01:52:35.000 I mean, isn't Biden already on the ballot in a bunch of these states?

01:52:38.000 So if they were to switch him out, then the Democrats can't win.

01:52:42.000 But there's no way they'll actually allow that to happen, though, because it's the same thing in Ohio.

01:52:45.000 Like, 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.

01:52:56.000 And of course, they pull some strings and change it.

01:52:58.000 They will get that change.

01:52:59.000 I don't think they're going to let that be a hurdle.

01:53:00.000 So 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.

01:53:12.000 Whoa! 0.71

01:53:13.000 Jeez.

01:53:15.000 That's kind of wild, you think about it.

01:53:17.000 Yeah, and that was, um... What was the other point someone made?

01:53:20.000 That, um... I think it was Abe Lincoln.

01:53:22.000 Yeah, Abe Lincoln's assassination is... Joe Biden's older.

01:53:26.000 We are further away than when he was born from Abraham Lincoln's assassination.

01:53:31.000 Well, but also now Sherman's march to the sea, huh?

01:53:33.000 That's crazy.

01:53:34.000 That's crazy. 0.99

01:53:36.000 He's an old, old man. 0.99

01:53:37.000 Closer to 50 than I am to 40.

01:53:38.000 All right, Little Baloo says, Ian looks so sexy tonight.

01:53:41.000 Thanks, homie.

01:53:42.000 And heart-eyed emoji.

01:53:43.000 It's because I'm not wearing headphones or my glasses.

01:53:47.000 Well, alright.

01:53:47.000 Also because I did a cleanse.

01:53:48.000 I'm a different man.

01:53:51.000 Alright, Noah Bodie says Styx was saying a swapped-in candidate would be ineligible in several states.

01:53:55.000 Know anything about this?

01:53:57.000 I'm pretty sure.

01:53:58.000 I mean, they did have that write-in Biden campaign in New Hampshire this year when the DNC was like, forget you, New Hampshire.

01:54:05.000 South Carolina is going to go first for the primary.

01:54:07.000 So 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.

01:54:15.000 But this is what I go back to.

01:54:16.000 I think it's going to default to Joe Biden stays on the ticket and they just have to see this mess through.

01:54:20.000 I 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.

01:54:26.000 I 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.

01:54:34.000 I mean, most of them were saying Joe Biden was totally fine until they... Because they were told to!

01:54:38.000 Yeah, sure!

01:54:39.000 And they also believed it.

01:54:40.000 They didn't believe the clips that were out there.

01:54:42.000 They didn't consider it a possibility.

01:54:43.000 Then it became undeniable, and now they're scrambling.

01:54:46.000 I think this is out of panic, and I think the reality is that it's more likely that he's on the ballot than not.

01:54:51.000 No Name says, Why am I the only person who thinks Newsom looks like Count Chocula?

01:54:55.000 You are not.

01:54:57.000 Slick back hair.

01:54:58.000 Does he have pointy ears?

01:54:59.000 I gotta get a good look at him.

01:55:00.000 He does kind of, he reminds me of Count Chocula.

01:55:03.000 His pointy chin.

01:55:04.000 Count Chocula's based, you know?

01:55:07.000 Delicious chocolate cereal, I got no problem.

01:55:08.000 Is that a bad thing?

01:55:09.000 A little sugary, I don't know if I'd want to give it to my kids.

01:55:11.000 Maybe just on his bowl of oatmeal with some cream or something.

01:55:14.000 Would you guys vote for Frankenberry or Boo-Berry?

01:55:18.000 Boo-Berry.

01:55:18.000 Boo-Berry was the GM, yeah.

01:55:19.000 I've seen their immigration platform, you know?

01:55:21.000 I'm trying to not be fun.

01:55:25.000 I suppose, you know, the question then is Boo-Berry's dead, right?

01:55:28.000 Unfortunately.

01:55:29.000 Yeah, and Franken-Berry was reanimated.

01:55:30.000 I wonder if they slaughtered him.

01:55:32.000 Boo-Berry and Franken-Berry got together.

01:55:34.000 Or, uh, Chocula and Franken-Berry got together.

01:55:37.000 Like, this Boo-Berry guy's too good, take him out. 1.00

01:55:39.000 No, maybe not.

01:55:41.000 I think I'd have to vote for Franken-Berry because he's alive.

01:55:44.000 But, you know, a blueberry would never die.

01:55:46.000 So good.

01:55:47.000 You don't have to worry about any sort of security.

01:55:48.000 You could cut Secret Service for many years.

01:55:51.000 Save that money for a little while.

01:55:53.000 You know, I'd vote for whichever one would appoint Captain Crunch as their... as their... Commander-in-Chief?

01:56:01.000 No, no, Chief of... Department of Defense.

01:56:06.000 Well, 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.

01:56:13.000 I think that's worth pointing out.

01:56:14.000 All right, let's go.

01:56:16.000 Does Trix the rabbit get a cabinet position? 1.00

01:56:19.000 Undoubtedly.

01:56:21.000 DEI all the way.

01:56:21.000 Aunt Jemima for VP.

01:56:25.000 Wait, that's not a cereal.

01:56:27.000 I know, but she's been cancelled everywhere else.

01:56:30.000 Bring her back. 0.91

01:56:30.000 Why is the Trix rabbit DEI? 0.91

01:56:31.000 Because of all the rainbow colors.

01:56:34.000 That's Lucky Charms, dude.

01:56:36.000 Lucky Charms would replace Janet Yellen.

01:56:38.000 Isn't Trix a little rainbowy, too?

01:56:40.000 Lucky Charms has the rainbow in it.

01:56:42.000 Yeah, Lucky Charms is best.

01:56:43.000 But he's always obsessed with the pot of gold, so maybe he would be a treasury secretary.

01:56:48.000 You know, I imagine the Biden and Lucky Charms guy would not get along.

01:56:53.000 Because the Lucky Charms guy is always running away from children.

01:56:58.000 And he's legitimately Irish, and I feel like Biden's constantly insulting the Irish.

01:57:02.000 Well, he says he's Irish, doesn't he?

01:57:04.000 But it's never a flattering thing when he says it.

01:57:05.000 All right.

01:57:06.000 He did, yeah.

01:57:07.000 What did he say?

01:57:08.000 My family's not in prison or something?

01:57:09.000 Something like that.

01:57:10.000 Yeah, and Seamus got really offended.

01:57:12.000 He was banging on the table screaming, he was crying, snot was pouring out of his nose.

01:57:15.000 But he's just like that all the time.

01:57:16.000 And he was like, I'm being oppressed!

01:57:18.000 He's like that all the time.

01:57:21.000 Let's read some more Super Chats. 0.91

01:57:22.000 To be fair, he's a white male Catholic.

01:57:24.000 He probably is oppressed.

01:57:25.000 Brown Bear says, I think the Democrats will drop Kamala Harris without a second thought.

01:57:29.000 They only care about DEI as long as it's a path to power.

01:57:32.000 And if Kamala's in the way of that power, she's gone. 0.84

01:57:34.000 Did you see that Wall Street?

01:57:36.000 I 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.

01:57:45.000 Hold on, I'll find it.

01:57:46.000 Yeah, you gotta find that article.

01:57:47.000 But, 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.

01:57:55.000 I can hit whatever option and it's not gonna change my life.

01:57:57.000 But I see somebody saying, would you rather have Joe Biden or Kamala Harris?

01:58:00.000 I still, you know, for a year now, I have not been able to answer that question.

01:58:04.000 I don't know.

01:58:05.000 I gotta read this.

01:58:05.000 Michael Malice tweeted this.

01:58:08.000 He said, hey Chris Cuomo, when you were at CNN, did you ever catch Caitlyn Collins without his wig on?

01:58:17.000 You see, Scott Presler tweeted out a photo of Caleb Collins, and he said, this is not me.

01:58:24.000 Okay, the Wall Street Journal, this is a news alert I got, diversity was supposed to make all of us a lot of money.

01:58:28.000 It hasn't.

01:58:30.000 Oh gee.

01:58:31.000 Hot take!

01:58:32.000 Michael Malice.

01:58:32.000 No way!

01:58:33.000 I don't think you could have him on a YouTube show.

01:58:35.000 Sunday, June 30th.

01:58:36.000 Michael Malice?

01:58:37.000 We haven't met in a long time.

01:58:38.000 I've been on his YouTube show.

01:58:39.000 Nate Woodworth says, did you see Nyjah Houston's board at the X Games a few days ago?

01:58:43.000 Was the Statue of Liberty with an American flag behind it?

01:58:45.000 When he won gold, he purposely showed his deck to the camera.

01:58:49.000 Dude, I'm gonna tell you, man, I know tons of pro skateboarders.

01:58:54.000 Nigel Huston is the top of the top in pro skateboarding.

01:58:58.000 He's probably one of the very few pro skateboarders who's actually worth a lot of money, probably worth millions.

01:59:03.000 The average professional skateboarder's probably making $40,000 a year.

01:59:07.000 The industry is collapsing.

01:59:08.000 Braille skateboards just announced that they've shut down their warehouse.

01:59:12.000 They have six million YouTube subs.

01:59:13.000 They shut it down, they tore it all out.

01:59:15.000 Skateboarding is collapsing.

01:59:17.000 The industry is in serious trouble and the worst part is the Olympics are coming up.

01:59:21.000 So 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.

01:59:32.000 What is your take on why it's been falling apart?

01:59:37.000 Why it's been shuddering?

01:59:39.000 I think that, well, there's a lot of reasons.

01:59:42.000 One 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.

01:59:59.000 This is true for every industry.

02:00:00.000 What 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.

02:00:16.000 Woke people make young people not want to skateboard.

02:00:19.000 Fact.

02:00:21.000 So 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.

02:00:30.000 But 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.

02:00:43.000 If kids do not engage in, I'll start here.

02:00:47.000 If kids don't skateboard, skateboarding dies in 10 years.

02:00:50.000 Right now, the majority of skateboarders in general are over the age of 30.

02:00:56.000 So if you're out there and you like skateboarding and you're a pro skateboarder,

02:00:59.000 you gotta be doing everything you can to target young teenagers and convince them

02:01:05.000 to start skating and tell parents to get their kids skateboards so that those kids

02:01:08.000 Get involved, grow up skating, invest in the culture, and help build and create a

02:01:12.000 Because children are the future, no question, and I feel like most people don't get this.

02:01:17.000 Especially 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.

02:01:23.000 What you end up with is, a really good example is what's going on in Martinsburg, with our attempts to build a skate park.

02:01:29.000 The older guys, who have been there for 10 years, are telling people to F off and get out.

02:01:35.000 What'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.

02:01:46.000 They're going to say, okay, this is not the sport we want to have our kids involved in.

02:01:49.000 So 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.

02:01:56.000 You can bring your kids.

02:01:57.000 Everyone's going to be really nice.

02:01:58.000 That's a good thing.

02:02:00.000 But the woke element in Martinsburg is desperately trying to stop it from happening.

02:02:03.000 It's interesting.

02:02:04.000 And also... So one last point real quick, because we do have to go to the Members Only show.

02:02:08.000 I was talking to Brett Dasovic and a few other rollerbladers.

02:02:11.000 Like, how did rollerblading die?

02:02:12.000 Rollerblading was the biggest sport.

02:02:14.000 33 million participants in the 90s.

02:02:17.000 And what a lot of these guys told me is that the older crowd of pro rollerbladers at their peak were gatekeepers.

02:02:25.000 They didn't want the kooks.

02:02:26.000 They didn't want the kids. 1.00

02:02:27.000 The kids were dorks. 0.96

02:02:28.000 The kids were in the way. 1.00

02:02:30.000 The skateboard industry said, yeah, those people are lame.

02:02:33.000 You don't want to be like them. 0.80

02:02:34.000 Come skate with us.

02:02:35.000 So the kids said yes.

02:02:36.000 Skateboarding became cool.

02:02:37.000 Rollerblading became uncool.

02:02:39.000 Everyone quit rollerblading.

02:02:41.000 When I was a little kid, I rollerbladed since I was a little kid.

02:02:43.000 I played street hockey.

02:02:44.000 Yeah, me too.

02:02:45.000 And then when I was 13, my mom actually got me Backyard Bob rollerblades because everybody was rollerblading.

02:02:52.000 And then rollerblading became uncool.

02:02:53.000 Nobody wanted to do it, and so everyone got skateboards.

02:02:56.000 That was it.

02:02:57.000 Skateboarding is doing the same thing now as scooting.

02:02:59.000 Scooting is popular among younger people.

02:03:01.000 It's becoming more and more prominent.

02:03:03.000 The scooter kids are laughing and having fun and doing their thing, and they're expanding and rising.

02:03:08.000 And skateboarders are jaded, angry old men who think they're too cool for everybody else.

02:03:15.000 I 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.

02:03:26.000 But there's so much money being pumped through those organizations that there's still an incentive for people to go try.

02:03:33.000 Yeah, that's about it.

02:03:34.000 We 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...

02:03:48.000 Uh, trying to, uh, build local skate parks and, uh, build culture that will influence young people and be a positive, uh, force.

02:03:55.000 Uh, go to boonieshq on Instagram if you want to watch me attempt to drop in on the death wall.

02:04:01.000 You know what I'm talking about.

02:04:02.000 I've seen it.

02:04:02.000 It's actually not me, it's the Muppet that Jack Posobiec gave me.

02:04:05.000 We had him drop in and it's funny.

02:04:07.000 Does he- does he do well?

02:04:09.000 No.

02:04:09.000 You would be shot.

02:04:12.000 It is funny, though.

02:04:13.000 And I'll tell you, the goal with Boonies is we want to be PG-13. 0.91

02:04:17.000 We 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.

02:04:24.000 They're going to say, oh, that's funny and silly, a little rough around the edges, but nothing too bad.

02:04:29.000 And then the older crowd is going to be like, that's pro skateboarding at its best.

02:04:33.000 We 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.

02:04:50.000 Who's going to want to watch that?

02:04:51.000 No disrespect.

02:04:52.000 Pro skateboarders are going to be like, oh, that's a crazy trick.

02:04:55.000 Sure.

02:04:56.000 And then the average person is going to be like, I don't know what that is.

02:04:57.000 I don't care.

02:04:58.000 So you've got to make content that is fun and fun and funny.
