Timcast IRL - Tim Pool - U.S. Enters Israel Iran War In Defense Of Israel, Deaths CONFIRMED After Iran Strikes

00:02:28.000 The Israel-Iran war is escalating.

00:02:31.000 Both countries are firing at each other.

00:02:33.000 Iran is claiming 78 dead in Israel.

00:02:36.000 There's reports of at least one death with several injured.

00:02:38.000 And the U.S. has now entered the war in defense of Israel, along with other allies, to intercept missile strikes from Iran.

00:02:46.000 Iran is threatening to target U.S. bases in the region, saying that they will be held fully accountable for their assistance in aiding Israel in these strikes.

00:02:55.000 Now, initially, the U.S. said they didn't know anything about it.

00:02:57.000 Trump has now come out and said, we knew everything.

00:03:01.000 And it's being reported by Israeli news sources that this was a psy-op.

00:03:07.000 The Trump administration was pretending to want to negotiate peace to deceive Iran into thinking a strike would not happen.

00:03:14.000 Iran has now come out and said, we were deceived.

00:03:17.000 So welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the U.S.'s involvement in the Israel-Iran war, something that I think most of the Trump base did not want.

00:03:25.000 And now MAGA is split.

00:03:27.000 Tucker Carlson is ragging on these neocon personalities and saying Trump is complicit in this.

00:03:32.000 So, oh boy, we had a lot to break down in exactly what's going on.

00:03:36.000 Before we do, my friends, make sure to go to castbrew.com and buy some Cast Brew coffee because nothing is better than a delicious cup of coffee when you are hearing about war and the end of the world.

00:04:32.000 Who are you?

00:04:33.000 What do you do?

00:04:33.000 My name is Anthony Cabasa.

00:04:35.000 I'm an independent journalist out of Los Angeles, California.

00:04:37.000 I have been covering the protests there since last Friday when they began.

00:04:42.000 They began violent, regardless of what Gavin Newsom says.

00:04:46.000 And yeah, just been documenting everything that's been happening there.

00:04:48.000 So thanks for having me.

00:04:49.000 Right on.

00:04:50.000 And this gentleman has returned from the morning.

00:04:51.000 Let's go.

00:04:52.000 Yeah, I was here earlier for Culture War.

00:04:53.000 My name is Aidan Mattis.

00:04:54.000 I am the host of the Lore Lodge, History Unhinged, and Weird Bible Podcast.

00:04:59.000 And I primarily do history stuff on YouTube.

00:05:02.000 Right on.

00:05:03.000 Ian is here.

00:05:03.000 Hey, guys.

00:05:04.000 Ian Crossland up in this.

00:05:05.000 I'm an actor and musician and a producer.

00:05:07.000 Happy to be here.

00:05:08.000 I also have the magnificent Phil Labonte.

00:05:10.000 Hello, everybody.

00:05:11.000 My name is Phil Labonte.

00:05:12.000 I'm the lead singer of the heavy metal band, All That Remains.

00:05:14.000 I'm an anti-communist and a counter-revolutionary.

00:05:16.000 Let's get into it.

00:05:17.000 Here's the story from Axios.

00:05:19.000 Iran strikes back at Israel.

00:05:21.000 U.S. helps to intercept missiles.

00:05:24.000 Axios reporting Iran launched a major counterattack against Israel on Friday, firing around 100 missiles in two barrages.

00:05:30.000 The retaliatory attack began 18 hours after Israel launched a war against Iran, attacking its nuclear facilities and missile sites and killing top military leaders and nuclear scientists.

00:05:41.000 The U.S. is helping to intercept incoming ballistic missiles, according to an Israeli official and a senior U.S. official.

00:05:48.000 So, ladies and gentlemen, the U.S. is now in the war.

00:05:53.000 Now, call it whatever you want.

00:05:54.000 Some might say, I know that the more pro-Israel side is going to say, we are not at war with Iran.

00:05:58.000 We're simply defending an ally.

00:06:00.000 And I know that the anti-Israel side is going to say outright, we have just started a war with Iran.

00:06:04.000 But I think it is fair to say, settle that aside, what is Iran thinking about this?

00:06:10.000 They are threatening retaliation because the U.S. defending Israel and supplying them with weapons while Israel is bombing them.

00:06:18.000 As far as they're concerned, we are at war with Iran.

00:06:21.000 We are actively involved in Israel with weapons, and we are helping intercept the missile strikes against them.

00:06:27.000 That's how Iran's going to see it.

00:06:28.000 The question is, does this result in Iranian attacks on U.S. assets in the region?

00:06:33.000 Considering what Trump has been saying about we knew, and Iran saying that the U.S. was deceiving them, I think it's very likely.

00:06:41.000 Now, a couple quick updates.

00:06:42.000 This is massive.

00:06:43.000 From Fox News, the Kyria compound, Israel's equivalent to the Pentagon, has been hit.

00:06:49.000 We have this report from Fox News.

00:06:51.000 Let me see if I can play it.

00:06:53.000 Trey Yinkst has been up all night, is standing by with all the details.

00:06:57.000 Trey, what can you tell us?

00:06:59.000 Yeah, Laura, following that Israeli attack against Iranian nuclear facilities and top IRGC leadership overnight and into today.

00:07:09.000 The Iranians have responded with three waves of ballistic missiles.

00:07:12.000 This is Israel's version of the Pentagon, the Kiryat.

00:07:15.000 And the building on this compound was just hit.

00:07:20.000 You can understand here, it's very tense at this specific location because the Iranians are now targeting the defense establishment of Israel.

00:07:31.000 Wow.

00:07:33.000 So here we go.

00:07:34.000 We also have this from Fox News, Trey Yanks.

00:07:38.000 An Iranian ballistic missile struck a residential building in the suburbs of Tel Aviv.

00:07:40.000 At least one woman has been killed and 20 others injured.

00:07:43.000 So, so far, all I've seen is one death in Israel.

00:07:47.000 I'm not entirely sure.

00:07:49.000 There is a video, actually, which I'll see, which shows the rocket strike.

00:07:54.000 It's close up.

00:07:55.000 So, I don't know.

00:07:57.000 What do you guys think?

00:07:58.000 There's a lot to break down on this.

00:07:59.000 Well, I mean, go ahead.

00:08:00.000 Well, I think that The French and the British, basically Neville Chamberlain, the British Prime Minister, wanted to appease Hitler because Hitler wanted old German land back.

00:08:17.000 He wanted a piece of Poland.

00:08:19.000 He wanted part of Czechoslovakia.

00:08:21.000 So the British gave him Czechoslovakia.

00:08:23.000 They gave him the western part of the Sudetenland.

00:08:25.000 And because of that, the Germans kept building up and building up and building up their military until it was too late.

00:08:30.000 So this is a video of an Iranian ballistic missile striking downtown Tel Aviv.

00:08:36.000 And the idea is hypersonic maybe, like the bypassing the Iron Dome's capabilities, new weaponry.

00:08:46.000 But I think the argument that Netanyahu is making is that he's preempting a military buildup, that if Iran gets a nuclear weapon, they will use it.

00:08:55.000 They will obliterate Tel Aviv.

00:08:57.000 You think that was big?

00:08:58.000 You know, imagine, you know, whatever.

00:09:00.000 modern day military warhead.

00:09:02.000 And so it's like if we don't stop them and Do you find that argument compelling, that they would actually use a nuclear weapon on Israel?

00:09:13.000 Because, honestly, like, legitimately, I don't think they would.

00:09:16.000 I think the reason that they want a nuclear weapon is because, you know, North Korea has a nuclear weapon, and the U.S. isn't breathing down their throat talking about regime change.

00:09:25.000 Libya gave up their nuclear weapon, and then, you know, a couple years later, NATO was running air cover for the rebels.

00:09:31.000 So I don't think that Iran actually wants it specifically so they can use it to essentially set in motion the destruction of the Iranian regime, right?

00:09:43.000 Because even if they killed a bunch of Jews or a bunch of Israelis and did massive damage— I feel like Iran would stand to lose a lot more, personally, if they were to nuke, if they want to hit Israel.

00:09:59.000 They know, and this is something I was watching Tucker Carlson the other night, and he was interviewing that and saying that we've been made to believe that both Iran and China are these big threats, but they're really not.

00:10:11.000 Our threats are sometimes our neighbors.

00:10:13.000 Mexico has killed more Americans than Iran probably has in the last couple of decades.

00:10:17.000 Agree about Mexico.

00:10:19.000 Disagree about China.

00:10:19.000 Go ahead.

00:10:20.000 Sorry.

00:10:20.000 Right.

00:10:20.000 No, yeah.

00:10:21.000 And hey, my mom's from Mexico.

00:10:24.000 We're right there.

00:10:25.000 And we see the disaster and the implications of having a bad neighbor to our south.

00:10:29.000 And I think somebody – I don't know if it was Jack that posted, when are we going to strike the cartel sites in Mexico the same way we're hitting Iran?

00:10:36.000 And I think it's valid.

00:10:38.000 Israel took out all of their top military brass, and the U.S. is like, well, I don't know.

00:10:42.000 Cartels are actively killing people all the time.

00:10:44.000 It's crazy.

00:10:45.000 And I don't know how anyone can look at the president of Mexico now where Donald Trump kind of extended his olive branch and said, look, if you want us to help you with your cartel problem, we can.

00:10:54.000 But of course she wants to make it seem like, oh, we will never allow another country to come in and take care of our own problems.

00:11:00.000 We can do it by ourselves.

00:11:01.000 But it's like, okay, you're kind of telling on yourself right now.

00:11:05.000 So I'm seeing a lot of people post, Israel has a right to defend itself.

00:11:08.000 And I'm like, wait, wait, hold on.

00:11:09.000 You're not seriously implying that a preemptive strike on Iran was self-defense?

00:11:14.000 That's been since thousands of years they've been making that argument.

00:11:17.000 It is.

00:11:18.000 The Romans did it.

00:11:19.000 They were like, look, because sometimes if you just sit back and wait and the enemy on the other side of the border builds up their military and you don't do anything, then they invade you.

00:11:26.000 They destroy your industrial capacity.

00:11:28.000 you can't rebuild your counterattack.

00:11:31.000 So you do the, That's right.

00:11:37.000 Offense is defense.

00:11:38.000 It's the best defense, a lot of people say, in war for sure.

00:11:41.000 Like the French before World War II?

00:11:43.000 If you're in a situation where you have to defend your life, like if you've got a gun, you don't have to wait for someone to punch you to take your gun out.

00:11:49.000 So let's try this.

00:11:51.000 Your neighbor says they are going to kill you, and then you're like, okay.

00:11:55.000 And then one day you see him standing in his front yard assembling a.308 while smiling at you.

00:12:01.000 Do you have a right, or does it make sense to attack them?

00:12:04.000 Technically, legally, no.

00:12:06.000 Orally.

00:12:06.000 I mean, in real life, you call the police.

00:12:08.000 I don't think that's a fair analogy.

00:12:13.000 In war, there's no law.

00:12:15.000 Sorry to interrupt you there.

00:12:16.000 Yeah, it's very different when you're dealing with a nuclear bomb and mass casualties.

00:12:21.000 The scale of death is where things get weird.

00:12:23.000 Now, I'm just saying there are people who are ideologically captured on Israel.

00:12:29.000 I call them the Israel first people.

00:12:31.000 And they are like, denounce Israel strikes on Iran, Tim.

00:12:33.000 And I'm like, I don't care.

00:12:35.000 I literally don't.

00:12:36.000 I'm not going to denounce Burma or whatever it is China is doing or Tibet and Pakistan.

00:12:42.000 Israel, Iran, whatever.

00:12:43.000 I'll denounce the U.S. involvement and say the U.S. should not be involved in this.

00:12:47.000 And I don't know if you guys have also seen, there's articles going around that as far back in the 1980s, Israel has been putting out headlines, you know, Iran is close to a nuclear war within five years.

00:12:56.000 And there was like another one in 1995, like they're months away from an atomic bomb.

00:13:00.000 And then like fast forward 45 years and it's like the same headline over and over again.

00:13:04.000 Just, hey, there's a nuclear war that's about, and we have to go in there.

00:13:08.000 To me, it just doesn't make sense because Israel, they've got They're going on in Syria.

00:13:13.000 They're going on in Lebanon.

00:13:14.000 They're going on in Yemen.

00:13:15.000 They're going on in—they've still got Gaza to take care of.

00:13:18.000 Why launch a new assault on Iran, knowing that the backlash—and then when I saw that they were getting a—you know, that they had assaulted and done drone strikes in Iran, they're saying, like, oh, now Israel is asking all its citizens to flee, you know, into shelters because Iran is going to hit back.

00:13:34.000 And I'm like, well, what did you expect was going to happen?

00:13:36.000 Well, you almost wonder if they knew that was going to happen and if they're using it as a cause.

00:13:40.000 You know, and that Pentagon thing they got there, what's it called?

00:13:44.000 That building that they have?

00:13:46.000 It's a civilian military site, so it's like a human shield site.

00:13:50.000 If it gets hit, blown up, they're going to be like, oh, the civilians that were there!

00:13:53.000 Pentagon is the same thing.

00:13:55.000 Yeah, like the military is usually directed by the civilians in like most.

00:14:05.000 In the late 70s, there was an Iranian revolution.

00:14:08.000 The Shah, which was democratically elected president of Iran, got overthrown in, suspectedly, a CIA coup.

00:14:15.000 The Israelis may have been involved, but they put in this radical religious sect, this Ayatollah Khomeini, this intensely radical Islamist, who's like the perfect enemy.

00:14:26.000 And now they have an enemy to fight.

00:14:28.000 It's similar with Hamas.

00:14:29.000 The Israelis are, apparently, they propped up Hamas because they needed someone to fight against.

00:14:34.000 The United States didn't back the Shah.

00:14:37.000 They backed the revolution.

00:14:39.000 We overthrew the Shah and installed a democratic regime, which was then overthrown by the Islamic revolution.

00:14:44.000 So even right now, we've got a super chat.

00:14:46.000 And with respect to Scott Thomas and your 64 months...

00:14:50.000 He says, stop simping for Israel.

00:14:51.000 They had negotiations for Sunday.

00:14:53.000 They could have waited, but decided to be the aggressor.

00:14:55.000 This is what I'm talking about.

00:14:56.000 How is it simping for Israel to say the U.S. should not be involved in Middle Eastern conflicts?

00:15:01.000 Because I have to be anti-Israel?

00:15:03.000 I'm as anti-Israel as I am anti-Burundi.

00:15:08.000 And not only that, but I think, you know, this is something that my audience has been asking me is why does Israel keep announcing?

00:15:13.000 Why does the U.S. keep announcing that they're going to strike on Sunday?

00:15:16.000 They're going to strike on Sunday.

00:15:17.000 Why tell your enemy?

00:15:18.000 But it's also public pressure, right?

00:15:20.000 Because if now Israel can kind of go back and the U.S. can kind of go back and like, look, for months and for weeks we've been putting out, we need to strike a deal, we need to strike a deal.

00:15:27.000 But you opened up the segment, Tim, with the fact that I guess Israel is admitting that this was all like a ruse, that the deals were actually just to like kind of deter Iran and kind of have.

00:15:38.000 So that's kind of a shocking revelation.

00:15:40.000 The fact that it looks like Donald Trump is saying, yeah, we've been lying to Iran.

00:15:45.000 So now I know there's a lot of people pissed off at Donald Trump because they're like, what the heck?

00:15:50.000 Trump wasn't really negotiating peace.

00:15:52.000 Well, also more importantly, he wasn't just lying to Iran.

00:15:55.000 He was lying to us.

00:15:56.000 All of us.

00:15:56.000 He told us that we weren't involved in this and now it turns out we were.

00:16:00.000 So we got a video.

00:16:00.000 It looks like somebody who was in the building that got hit filmed it.

00:16:03.000 Check this out.

00:16:06.000 Man, okay.

00:16:10.000 Yo.

00:16:11.000 Jeez.

00:16:13.000 That's crazy.

00:16:15.000 Yo!

00:16:17.000 Yo, get out.

00:16:21.000 Or he's right next to the building that got hit.

00:16:27.000 I like that it's going back and forth between Hebrew and English.

00:16:30.000 Yeah, yeah.

00:16:31.000 He's cursing in English.

00:16:32.000 Right, right.

00:16:33.000 But he's in shock in Hebrew.

00:16:36.000 Yeah, let's see what else I can pull up here.

00:16:40.000 What's the next?

00:16:41.000 Here we go.

00:16:41.000 This is a story from the Dallas Morning News.

00:16:44.000 We knew everything, Trump says, as U.S. shifts military resources after Israel hits Iran.

00:16:51.000 It's from the AP, as reported by Dallas Morning News.

00:16:53.000 The United States is shifting military resources, including ships in the Middle East, in response to Israel's strikes in Iran.

00:16:59.000 President Donald Trump told Reuters on a phone interview Friday that he and his team knew everything.

00:17:04.000 About Israel's plan to attack Iran, and that he had given Tehran fair warning it needed to make a deal on its nuclear program.

00:17:10.000 We knew everything, and I tried to save Iran humiliation and death.

00:17:13.000 I tried to save them very hard because I knew, because I would have loved to have seen a deal worked out.

00:17:19.000 They can still work out a deal, however, it's not too late.

00:17:22.000 So this is, initially, the talk was that the Trump team and the White House had no idea, and they were planning negotiations.

00:17:31.000 I think, I don't know if we have this one.

00:17:34.000 No, we don't have one pulled up.

00:17:35.000 We do have this.

00:17:35.000 Trump says Iranian negotiators working with the U.S. are no longer alive.

00:17:38.000 He says they didn't die of the flu.

00:17:40.000 They didn't die of COVID.

00:17:42.000 Israeli sources had been reporting, check this out, how an Israeli-American deception campaign lulled Iran into a false sense of security.

00:17:52.000 Israeli officials says Trump's warnings to Netanyahu not to attack, as well as stories of Israeli officials flying to the U.S. and PM taking a short vacation, were put out to fool the regime.

00:18:02.000 Now, I don't know how much of that is true, but with Trump saying we knew everything, it sounds like that may have been the case.

00:18:07.000 That the U.S. was basically saying, no, no, no, we want to negotiate with you, considering Trump's the one who killed the nuclear deal.

00:18:13.000 Him saying, I want to negotiate you, it's plausible.

00:18:15.000 And the reason why they're keeping this from the American...

00:18:22.000 But it's entirely possible.

00:18:24.000 Trump was trying to maintain the posture of we don't want to be involved in this conflict, getting those stories out so Iran thought the attack would not happen.

00:18:33.000 Netanyahu also said he wants an Iranian revolution.

00:18:36.000 He wants the people to overthrow the dictatorship that is their government.

00:18:39.000 He doesn't have a problem with the Iranians.

00:18:40.000 It's the government.

00:18:41.000 It's the dangerous, psychotic.

00:18:43.000 This is his argument.

00:18:44.000 I think Trump might feel the same way.

00:18:45.000 And I'll tell you what, if I was in their position, if I was the Ayatollah Khomeini right now, and I was betrayed like this by the Americans in the middle of the peace deal, I would never forgive them, literally never forgive them.

00:18:55.000 So unless they're removed from power.

00:18:58.000 Or destroy, whatever.

00:18:59.000 Unless they're removed from power, I don't see this conflict ending.

00:19:02.000 Now, if there is a regime change in Iran, and there's a democratically, you know, maybe there's a republic that's instantiated, maybe.

00:19:11.000 Maybe that can quell the violence, but I don't see it.

00:19:13.000 Other than that, I don't see it.

00:19:14.000 That kind of wasn't the result in Iraq.

00:19:18.000 I don't know that that would be the result in Iran either.

00:19:20.000 Iran was a successful Democrat.

00:19:23.000 They do have a much longer history as a as a this is going to sound bad, but as a civilized state, like they have been around independently for thousands upon thousands of years.

00:19:35.000 On the other hand, Islam is a...

00:19:42.000 It's a religion that likes violence.

00:19:44.000 And the concern that I would have is that what Trump may not be understanding here is that...

00:19:57.000 So when you look at the people who are in charge of Iran, as much as the regular average Iranian probably isn't a hateful person, the people in control are, and their opinion is that it is better to die than it is to submit to the world outside of Islam.

00:20:12.000 And that would be the concern I would have.

00:20:14.000 I think it's...

00:20:20.000 They will happily kill them before giving up power.

00:20:23.000 I heard that the Israelis basically launched a surgical strike, destroying members of the Iranian government and military, like top brass, top nuclear scientists.

00:20:32.000 They were literally killing people in the room, like they were selecting the room that they were in, shooting ordnance into the room.

00:20:38.000 That really basically just killed people in the room, and it didn't destroy the building or whatever.

00:20:43.000 Sorry, go ahead, finish.

00:20:45.000 I just wanted to clarify your point.

00:20:47.000 It's not when the end days come.

00:20:49.000 It's that they won't come.

00:20:50.000 The quote is, the day of judgment will not come until Muslims fight Jews and kill them.

00:20:55.000 Then the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out, O Muslim, there's a Jew hiding behind me.

00:21:01.000 Come and kill him.

00:21:02.000 That was actually in the Hamas charter, too.

00:21:04.000 Yeah, their eschatology has it that when we come to that point.

00:21:09.000 That the war will happen and then even these stones and trees will cry out against the Jews.

00:21:14.000 That is a prerequisite for them to meet the day of judgment to do this.

00:21:18.000 And that might, when you look at the Shia position and the intense religiosity of the Iranian regime, I would be very concerned about what they might perceive this to be.

00:21:29.000 It's interesting.

00:21:29.000 The caliphate is an interesting concept that a religion itself formed a state.

00:21:33.000 The Muslim caliphate in, like, I don't know what it was, 700 A.D., 800 A.D. I mean, Israel is technically a religious state, but that there was, like, a country, but there was also this caliphate that was a country.

00:21:43.000 Like, was Muhammad, like, a governor?

00:21:45.000 Was he a president?

00:21:46.000 What was he?

00:21:47.000 He was a prophet.

00:21:49.000 And a war leader?

00:21:50.000 He was a warlord, yeah.

00:21:51.000 And in Islam, the caliphs are basically his direct descendants sometimes, and depending on which Shia or Sunni, might be a more spiritual succession, and in some cases it's a more direct lineage from, I believe, his cousin.

00:22:05.000 That it's intricately tied into the governance of the system is like— Oh, they fully believe that the successor of Muhammad is the one who should lead both the religion and the state.

00:22:19.000 Yeah, and that's a big part of the problem because of a lot of the things that the religion specifically said, specifically about Islam.

00:22:32.000 And I understand I got cooked this morning, I know.

00:22:34.000 But they don't see it as a partnership.

00:22:37.000 It is one.

00:22:38.000 And that person is to lead Islam into a position where it overtakes the world.

00:22:44.000 But of course, then it has to shrink back and it has to be cornered.

00:22:48.000 It's kind of like Revelation.

00:22:49.000 Muhammad just kind of took Revelation and rewrote it.

00:22:52.000 It has to shrink back and be cornered?

00:22:54.000 Yeah, it expands, and then it is defeated, pushed back to Jerusalem.

00:22:59.000 It's really crazy how this is all in revelation and other wording.

00:23:02.000 And then 600 years later, some guy in Arabia is like...

00:23:07.000 You know, as a bit of a tangent, Muhammad reminds me a lot of Alexander the Great in his story.

00:23:12.000 He was like a young, well, middle-aged war leader, and then hugely successful people fought him.

00:23:18.000 Then when he died, basically his generals split up his empire and formed their own countries or culture groups.

00:23:25.000 The same thing that happened with Alexander.

00:23:29.000 Similar thing, similar thing.

00:23:30.000 I think Alexander was poisoned by his men, though.

00:23:33.000 I definitely think there's also an interesting conversation happening in which, obviously, now it's looking like Donald Trump knew everything, right?

00:23:40.000 That could mean two things.

00:23:42.000 We were playing Iran to kind of surprise it.

00:23:45.000 Or it could mean Israel had always informed us what they were planning on doing.

00:23:49.000 And I was actually trying to strike a deal with Iran through these last weeks.

00:23:54.000 And I mean, look, like how much time they gave Iran, right?

00:23:57.000 So, I mean, I think Trump in some way can kind of be like, look, I was doing my part.

00:24:01.000 Of course, Israel needs to run it by us.

00:24:03.000 But I think that there was like, you know, I've heard like people like Ben Shapiro say, you know, like and then you had.

00:24:10.000 Mark Levin saying that, who are we, the United States, to tell Israel that they're not allowed to strike Iran?

00:24:19.000 And I'm thinking to myself, I'm like, look, that can only be true if we take the Ben Shapiro route, in which we're just completely disengaged.

00:24:26.000 But if we're sending money over to Israel, and they're depending on us, which the reports show that America has interfered and intercepted a lot of these missiles.

00:24:34.000 Well, wait a minute, what happened?

00:24:35.000 I thought Israel didn't need us.

00:24:37.000 Yo, they brought Mark Levin on Fox and Friends this morning, and that dude— Yeah, he's lost the plot, man.

00:24:46.000 He was, like, fervently saying, it is America first to defend Israel and fight Iran and all that stuff.

00:24:53.000 And he's like, and they call me a neocon.

00:24:55.000 And I'm like, that's not America.

00:24:56.000 Like, that's literally not.

00:24:57.000 It's the antithesis of America first.

00:24:59.000 You know, I will say this is something that I actually have a conversation with my audience about, you know, being Hispanic myself, my mom from Mexico.

00:25:05.000 Yeah, like we don't have.

00:25:13.000 Like, I see, like, all these, like, Americans, kind of like evangelicals, talking about, like, this undying loyalty to Israel.

00:25:20.000 But, like, in Los Angeles, we don't, like, my mom never, we never grew up really having, we never talked about Israel.

00:25:28.000 You've never been?

00:25:29.000 What's that?

00:25:29.000 Never been?

00:25:30.000 To Israel?

00:25:31.000 Shout out to Douglas Murray.

00:25:32.000 Oh, yeah.

00:25:33.000 I haven't gotten invited.

00:25:34.000 Well, are you Catholic?

00:25:35.000 I'm not Catholic, no.

00:25:37.000 But you are?

00:25:38.000 I'm Christian, yeah.

00:25:40.000 I'm going to take another L as a Protestant today.

00:25:42.000 This is rough for me.

00:25:44.000 But this is, again, Protestantism, which is largely where the idea that we're supposed to defend Israel comes from, because it's not that Americans are supposed to defend, it's Christians are supposed to defend the Jews.

00:25:54.000 Christians are supposed to defend Israel.

00:25:56.000 And this is a...

00:26:15.000 But I've heard that before, not to interrupt you, but what I would ask is, so then how did Christians bless Israel or Jewish people before 1948?

00:26:24.000 So like between...

00:26:34.000 We persecuted them quite a bit in the Middle Ages.

00:26:37.000 Yeah, the Jews in the Bible are the ones that killed Jesus.

00:26:41.000 So that was like, they were the enemy in the Bible.

00:26:43.000 So the Christians basically, they set that up pretty early on to let you know the Jews are the enemy.

00:26:47.000 Anti-Semitism was kind of the default position of the church for a very long time.

00:26:51.000 Not necessarily like Hitler's version of it, but...

00:26:55.000 They should not be included amongst us has been the way it's been viewed for a very long time.

00:27:00.000 Then the Zionist movement appeared in the 1850s, and they were like, well, we want to set up a Jewish state.

00:27:04.000 Let's work together with the British Empire, this big British corporate empire, whatever, with the East India Trading Company.

00:27:10.000 And they set up Israel.

00:27:11.000 They basically worked on this plan to get the country of Israel.

00:27:14.000 So the politics of Israel don't matter at the local level.

00:27:17.000 it's only when you start talking geopolitical, the point of that country being where it is to protect the Suez Canal to dominate the trade region, then if you start to question the validity of it, they'll start throwing religion Yeah.

00:27:32.000 But a big part of why there's a fight over Israel is because of...

00:27:39.000 Jerusalem, right?

00:27:40.000 Because like the Islam, Christianity, and Judaism all consider Jerusalem to be like their holy city.

00:27:49.000 So it's not just about like the Suez Canal or about the Internet, the liberal global order, whatever you want to call it.

00:27:57.000 Like there is like deep seated religious reasons for both of the groups that are PO'd about Israel to want.

00:28:07.000 But see, here's the thing is, so I still have family in Mexico, and we go visit all the time.

00:28:12.000 I was just there not too long ago.

00:28:14.000 And it's just something that even in the churches, even the culture there, we never, ever, ever speak about Israel.

00:28:21.000 We never talk about it.

00:28:22.000 Whether it's in the news or not, it's not like we're like, oh my gosh, what's going to happen?

00:28:27.000 The Mexican people are not demanding that their government be like, hey, you need to do something.

00:28:31.000 But then here, like you have people like Mark Levin, and he's like, like you said, it's America first to be like, And I've gone to Peru.

00:28:40.000 I've gone to Honduras.

00:28:41.000 You just never hear this.

00:28:43.000 It's just such a weird concept.

00:28:46.000 What you're saying is someone needs to launch MYPAC?

00:28:50.000 Oh, yeah.

00:28:51.000 MYPAC.

00:28:51.000 Yeah, the Mexican-Israel Public Affairs Committee.

00:28:54.000 See, that's the thing.

00:28:55.000 You don't have an APAC in Mexico.

00:28:58.000 Well, the Israelis...

00:28:58.000 On my pack.

00:28:59.000 Yeah, the Israelis have already...

00:29:01.000 INVOLVED.

00:29:04.000 What about Canada?

00:29:05.000 Do they have a PSYPAC?

00:29:07.000 I hope they do.

00:29:09.000 I feel like Canada is in China's pocket at this point.

00:29:14.000 Yeah, they have a CCC PAC.

00:29:17.000 Secret Chinese police in Calgary.

00:29:20.000 Well, there was talk of that here in the U.S. as well.

00:29:22.000 The FBI mentioned that there were actually, I think it was like San Francisco area, New York, Boston kind of area.

00:29:29.000 I'm sorry, Senator.

00:29:30.000 It's Friday the 13th.

00:29:32.000 Oh, yeah, it is.

00:29:32.000 And we're just off the full moon.

00:29:35.000 I wish I could say it was a full moon, but that was the 11th.

00:29:38.000 Oh, hot.

00:29:39.000 So we're close enough.

00:29:40.000 So it's 95% illumination on the energy.

00:29:43.000 95% illumination, Illuminati.

00:29:45.000 That proves it.

00:29:46.000 Yep.

00:29:46.000 He's got it.

00:29:47.000 God is real.

00:29:49.000 I think that the reason you don't hear about it as much in Mexico, and we do in the United States, and I wonder if they hear about it in Britain.

00:29:55.000 I don't know.

00:29:56.000 Maybe you guys know more.

00:29:56.000 Or in Australia, the Five Eyes Spy Club.

00:29:58.000 I feel like they set up Israel and gave it nuclear weapons.

00:30:02.000 And I say they, I mean like the liberal economic order that hold out of the British.

00:30:05.000 You know, corporate empire.

00:30:07.000 I call it corporate because when they created the East India Trading Company, that thing took over India, took over China.

00:30:14.000 It took over.

00:30:15.000 Like, it took over.

00:30:16.000 So they set it up.

00:30:19.000 They gave it weapons.

00:30:20.000 They basically created a nuclear bulwark in the East to protect our interest, the liberal economic order's trade interests.

00:30:27.000 And they're highly obsessed with maintaining it.

00:30:31.000 That's why you hear about it constantly in the Five Eyes countries.

00:30:34.000 It's the world order.

00:30:36.000 When George H.W. Bush said in like, what was it, the early 90s?

00:30:40.000 93. He said, some people can imagine a new world order.

00:30:43.000 The phrase new world order literally was a reference to the liberal economic order and the restructuring of it.

00:30:49.000 And then when a bunch of people started saying the new world order, they weren't describing a proper noun.

00:31:01.000 Yeah, like at one point, the liberal economic order was a new world order.

00:31:08.000 There's actually a soundbite of President Biden saying, it was one of his ramblings early on, and he was talking about, there's actually a soundbite of him saying, in front of like a press conference, saying that a top general told him in a top secret meeting that the liberal world order began after World War II.

00:31:27.000 And I was like, what a very odd thing to say.

00:31:30.000 And it just kind of went into that.

00:31:31.000 Here we go.

00:31:34.000 is more than one small country.

00:31:36.000 It is a big idea, a new world order, where diverse nations are Hold on.

00:31:55.000 than one small country.

00:31:57.000 Okay.

00:31:57.000 The universal aspirations of mankind.

00:32:00.000 Peace and security, freedom and peace.

00:32:04.000 Freedom and the rule of law.

00:32:07.000 So I say we must clean the house of white America of racism.

00:32:13.000 Americans who are in the white majority should be proud to stand up and be heard denouncing the sort of racist rhetoric we heard on that tape, so loudly and clearly denouncing it that our black fellow citizens can hear us.

00:32:30.000 White racism may be black people's burden, but it's white people's problem.

00:32:34.000 I don't know what that has to do with the New World Order, but it's in the same clip.

00:32:37.000 It was the Sister Soldier moment.

00:32:40.000 Forgettable.

00:32:41.000 that there was the new world order, the proclamation.

00:32:42.000 And for, you know, like you said, 20 years, people thought it was a conspiracy theory.

00:32:46.000 People like Alex Jones would talk about it and they thought he was like...

00:32:51.000 The corporate press created a proper noun, New World Order.

00:32:55.000 You can search for it on Wikipedia.

00:32:56.000 But it was never a proper noun.

00:32:58.000 It was a descriptive phrase for the Council on Foreign Relations, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, the system that was called the liberal economic order or the liberal world order.

00:33:10.000 Yep.

00:33:10.000 Well, not based, but the Bank for International Settlements kind of is the mother brain out of Switzerland.

00:33:15.000 All the central banks, the New York Federal Reserve, the Bank of England, and the Bank of Australia run their money through the Swiss Bank, and that's kind of the brain of this system.

00:33:22.000 And here we have it from the Council on ForeignRelations.org.

00:33:25.000 What is the liberal world order?

00:33:27.000 Set up in what, 47?

00:33:28.000 49?

00:33:29.000 Right after World War II.

00:33:30.000 From natural disasters, to deadly diseases, to wars, the world can be a turbulent, even chaotic place.

00:33:38.000 But around 75 years ago, a new system was imagined to temper this turbulence and improve the lives of many.

00:33:46.000 It is called the liberal world order.

00:33:49.000 This is so dystopian.

00:33:50.000 It is a liberal system in the sense that it operates on rules that are, in theory, applied to each country equally, and that it encourages each country to be democratic and to open its economy to the rest of the world.

00:34:03.000 It is a global system in that every country around the world is encouraged to join and follow those rules, even if some do not.

00:34:11.000 And it is a system.

00:34:12.000 And what happens to those that do not?

00:34:14.000 Dude, if you put the Helldivers music behind that, it would fit perfectly.

00:34:18.000 It is.

00:34:19.000 That's what I'm saying, and look at what it says.

00:34:20.000 It says right there, after World War II, it all began.

00:34:23.000 And that's why I just found it really odd, because Joe Biden was talking about something completely different, and for some reason he just decided to throw it in there.

00:34:30.000 And by the way, you know, I met with a top secret general who told me that right after World War II, that's when the liberal world order began.

00:34:36.000 And I'm just like, well, what was...

00:34:40.000 It was multipolar.

00:34:43.000 they had the League of Nations, which was an attempt at like a UN, but it was multipolar in that Germany was uncontrollable.

00:34:58.000 So they built this super secretive, aggressive military-industrial complex.

00:35:02.000 They called it a New World Order.

00:35:03.000 They set up Israel in 49, I think?

00:35:05.000 47, 49?

00:35:06.000 47 to 48. As part of this construction of this order, they built, they instantiated Israel and the mandate where the mandate for Palestine had been, the British mandate had been set up.

00:35:17.000 And there it is.

00:35:19.000 Now they want to kind of evolve into some new one and they were never clear about what it's going to be.

00:35:23.000 You know where they really lost it though and the reason it's falling apart is because they wanted everyone to be gay.

00:35:27.000 And I'm not joking.

00:35:28.000 When they tried pushing gay communism on third world countries and even the United States, it created a massive backlash.

00:35:35.000 In the U.S., when corporate institutions adopted this, whether it was through mandate or I think it was more emergent, but it may be a combination of powerful interests saying, okay, let's roll with it, and social media pushing it.

00:35:47.000 When you take a look at the trends across all major media newspapers all over the world, at the end of the 2000s, 2008-2009, racism, white supremacy, sexism, all skyrocketed in every single newspaper.

00:36:00.000 Once the woke critical theory emerged, A major backlash erupted across many of these countries, including Europe and the United States.

00:36:10.000 Do you think that they were like, our forced sterilization projects aren't working.

00:36:14.000 They're getting upset.

00:36:15.000 And then the guy's like, have you tried making them gay?

00:36:18.000 And then they're like wantless population.

00:36:20.000 I think the Malthusians.

00:36:22.000 For those that are not familiar, Malthusians have been around, I believe since the 70s, believing that there would eventually come to be too many people, so they had to do whatever they could to stop people from reproducing.

00:36:33.000 And, you know, Bill Gates wants to reduce population growth and things like this.

00:36:36.000 And so one of the strategies is to discourage sex by any means and encourage non-reproductive sex.

00:36:44.000 That is not far off from catherism.

00:36:47.000 What is that?

00:36:48.000 It was a medieval heresy of the church that was basically the material world in and of itself is evil.

00:36:53.000 Creation is evil.

00:36:55.000 But existence in and of itself does not have to be evil.

00:36:59.000 So they encouraged people to have sex but not reproduce, to be hedonist, things like that.

00:37:04.000 And the Catholic Church stamped it out extremely aggressively.

00:37:07.000 That makes perfect sense.

00:37:08.000 Mass heard about 7,000 people, including other Catholics at Bazeer, because they didn't Let me play a little bit more of this liberal world order stuff.

00:37:21.000 A system that promotes order in that most countries that buy into it respect the borders of other countries and seek to resolve their differences peacefully.

00:37:31.000 It was developed in an effort to avoid repeating the major man-made disasters of the first half of the 20th century, the Great Depression, and two world wars.

00:37:44.000 Following World War II, the United States, along with several other countries, started drafting an aspirational blueprint for what later became known as the Liberal World Order by establishing certain international institutions.

00:37:59.000 The United Nations was built to promote peace between countries.

00:38:04.000 The World Bank would support global economic development.

00:38:08.000 And the International Monetary Fund and the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, which later became the World Trade Organization, would support investment and trade between countries.

00:38:20.000 While these institutions provided the blueprint for the liberal world order, the system was really powered by the United States.

00:38:32.000 We're a big stick in the room, so we're going to do what we want, and you better do it too, or else.

00:38:37.000 And what happens to individuals who defy the liberal economic order and the World Bank?

00:38:45.000 It's a crazy thing that just happens in these countries.

00:38:47.000 Or, for some reason, they end up being evil.

00:38:50.000 They can hardly believe it.

00:38:53.000 The problem with the liberal economic order and the reason it didn't work in totality was because of the Soviet Union.

00:38:59.000 They could never get in there and disrupt it until the late 80s.

00:39:01.000 Then you see this oligarchical revolution in the Soviet Union, shattering it and making it a, you know, business opportunities.

00:39:09.000 But the problem is at that point, the They basically, for 100 years before the end of World War II, we were talking about this before the show, there's what was called the Opium Wars.

00:39:25.000 The British, the East India Company was basically The Chinese revolted and said, we want opium to be illegal.

00:39:41.000 Well, the British came in with their advanced weaponry and stomped them down.

00:39:44.000 Said, no, it's not.

00:39:45.000 So five years later, the Chinese rose up again.

00:39:47.000 The British and the French went in, stomped them down completely, and said, opium's going to be legal in China.

00:39:51.000 For 100 years, they call it the century of humiliation.

00:39:55.000 This was like a call of the Chinese Communist Revolution.

00:39:58.000 We're not going to put up with this British humiliation anymore, these unfavorable treaties that we were forced to sign.

00:40:03.000 And so now they're giving it back to us with the fentanyl.

00:40:07.000 I mean, this war is still going on.

00:40:10.000 They're giving it to the United States because of what the British did?

00:40:13.000 What are you talking about, man?

00:40:14.000 Yes.

00:40:15.000 Now they want to destroy our, what do they call it, brain drain.

00:40:18.000 They want to create brain drain in the United States so we can't industrialize properly for the 21st century.

00:40:22.000 I don't think that it has a whole lot to do with getting revenge on the British by attacking the United States.

00:40:28.000 I do think that the United States and China are rivals.

00:40:34.000 It's not one of those things like the way that the...

00:40:40.000 They would say that we were partners or that we were in friendly competition.

00:40:45.000 I do think that it's actually not friendly competition, but I don't think that it has much to do with the way that England treated China 100 years ago.

00:40:55.000 I'll be more clear, I think, that it's not that they have a personal grudge.

00:40:58.000 It's that they look at what's the arcing power structure on Earth right now.

00:41:01.000 It's the liberal economic order.

00:41:02.000 Let's destroy that with the same technique that was used against us.

00:41:05.000 Let's poison their populace through opium.

00:41:08.000 They're doing a very specific...

00:41:10.000 ultra nationally capitalist thing right now.

00:41:14.000 Yes.

00:41:14.000 And that's kinda, I think their main way.

00:41:16.000 Fentanyl is probably being used to hit us, but the way China is doing things is that they are putting their tentacles into South America and Africa and the Middle East through the Belt and Road Initiative.

00:41:26.000 And what they plan to do is offer these countries more than they could ever possibly repay in infrastructure and things like that.

00:41:34.000 And then when those countries default on their debt, well, now China gets something back somehow.

00:41:39.000 It's their natural resources.

00:41:41.000 It's that China gets to build military bases.

00:41:43.000 China might even get to take over their governments.

00:41:45.000 So China's doing something very insidious to extend its empire into the world that the United States has basically propped up with aid for not hundreds of years, but decades now.

00:41:55.000 And they're trying to usurp that from us while at the same time poisoning us from behind.

00:42:01.000 When I'm looking at the two threats on Earth right now, I feel like the Communist Chinese Party and their expansion is deeply concerning.

00:42:07.000 If they're building up a military secretly, that could be a big problem.

00:42:11.000 They're not doing it secretly.

00:42:11.000 It's not secret.

00:42:12.000 They're doing a huge military building.

00:42:14.000 There are things we know about, but maybe there's things we don't know about, too.

00:42:16.000 We don't know.

00:42:17.000 We wouldn't know.

00:42:18.000 Fair enough.

00:42:18.000 And there's also the Middle Eastern stuff.

00:42:20.000 And I keep looking for a linchpin.

00:42:22.000 I think it's the Russians.

00:42:23.000 Ultimately, if there was a global fight, whoever Russia sides with will win.

00:42:28.000 Why?

00:42:29.000 Because they're the landmass in the middle.

00:42:31.000 Most amount of nukes?

00:42:34.000 I mean, you might be able to.

00:42:35.000 Actually, you can easily invade Russia.

00:42:37.000 Maybe now with modern tech.

00:42:38.000 Back in the day, you'd freeze on the battlefield.

00:42:40.000 That's always been the challenge.

00:42:41.000 But, yeah, with modern tech and the fact that they have a large landmass and the population is relatively small compared to the landmass.

00:42:48.000 But they are like a, you mentioned, highly militarized, massive society.

00:42:53.000 More nukes than anybody else.

00:42:55.000 And red, white, and blue, baby.

00:42:58.000 It's not the time on the world.

00:43:00.000 146 million people?

00:43:01.000 Yep.

00:43:02.000 But they have more landmass than Pluto?

00:43:04.000 Yeah, that's hilarious.

00:43:05.000 What's interesting is, I used to kind of think that way too, where it's like, man, Russia's like this big threat, and then the Ukraine secret operation happened.

00:43:12.000 And I feel like that just really put things into perspective in modern day because there's so many people, you know, when I talk about the oncoming war and what's happening with Russia and Ukraine, what's happening, Israel and Iran, there's a lot of people that I think they envision this new war to be like, hey, we're storming beaches again, we're dropping off all these troops, etc.

00:43:31.000 But I think that this next war, you know, if it evolves into that and it's looking like it is, it's going to look a lot more like what Ukraine just did to Russia.

00:43:40.000 What frightens me, really, is all these people that just came in the last four years with open borders.

00:43:44.000 And what kind of drone technology were they sneaking in?

00:43:47.000 What kind of drone technology are they building with stuff already here in America?

00:43:50.000 And so we were talking about this earlier, right?

00:43:52.000 I've been covering the L.A. protests since last Friday.

00:43:55.000 And there was one day specifically where the police were pushing back the protesters.

00:43:59.000 And there was a car just stuck there.

00:44:01.000 And it was on because you can see the exhaust pipe and it was, you know, had the exhaust coming out of it.

00:44:05.000 And the police were telling it, hey, you got to move.

00:44:07.000 They were like, roll down your window.

00:44:08.000 You got to get this thing out of here.

00:44:10.000 And just for a split second, I was like, this thing's about to blow up right now.

00:44:13.000 This thing's a bomb.

00:44:14.000 You know, and like, you know, you got Laura Loomer.

00:44:17.000 She's been warning about like, hey, stay out of the cities this weekend.

00:44:20.000 I think something bad is about to happen.

00:44:22.000 Obviously, we've got global conflict.

00:44:24.000 You got Representative Ana Paulina Luna, who said that she has text messages from Intel saying that she knows for a fact that there's going to be bad actors going into the cities and causing mayhem.

00:44:35.000 And so that's all it takes.

00:44:37.000 There was actually a, sorry, just there was a guy that threw a Molotov cocktail at police in L.A. and I captured it.

00:44:42.000 That guy ended up being an illegal.

00:44:43.000 So who wants to make a bet?

00:44:46.000 I'll make a gentleman's bet, and I doubt anyone in the room will take it, that within the next week or two, there will be an attack on Americans from some kind of Iranian actor.

00:44:57.000 Iranian actor?

00:44:58.000 Yeah.

00:44:58.000 The next week or two?

00:44:59.000 Or that's what it would be told to us, you mean?

00:45:01.000 Oh, yeah.

00:45:01.000 That's going to be the headline.

00:45:03.000 I didn't speculate anything beyond there's going to be.

00:45:06.000 So who wants to take that bet that it would not happen?

00:45:09.000 In the next week or two?

00:45:12.000 I'm tempted just because it's such a short time window.

00:45:15.000 Considering that Israel is bombing Iran right now.

00:45:18.000 Like I said, I'm not.

00:45:19.000 For the warmonger interests, they need only that tinder that has been laid for years to be ignited, which is, we have been told because of Joe Biden that there are Iranian-backed influences, insurgents, and terrorists who have entered the United States.

00:45:35.000 And what would happen now if a bomb went off in a U.S. city and they said, It was a guy who came to the border and is Iranian.

00:45:43.000 MAGA would immediately say, this proves it.

00:45:47.000 We were right the whole time.

00:45:49.000 Joe Biden did this.

00:45:50.000 Iran is at fault and attacked us.

00:45:52.000 Now we have to go to war.

00:45:53.000 I agree with that.

00:45:54.000 I would only believe it if the Iranian government claimed it was their attack at this point.

00:45:58.000 But even then, that could be a fake claim.

00:46:00.000 I don't know what to believe.

00:46:02.000 The media reports will just say they claimed it.

00:46:04.000 I'm just saying, if there really is an interest in the U.S. getting involved in the war, The tinder has been set.

00:46:11.000 There has to be an attack.

00:46:12.000 I discussed this with Secretary Noem.

00:46:15.000 Are there terrorists at the southern border?

00:46:17.000 Absolutely.

00:46:18.000 Joe Biden left it open.

00:46:19.000 So now the narrative is already planted and the logic is there.

00:46:22.000 Should an attack happen, it's...

00:46:27.000 We knew they came in.

00:46:28.000 It's been a big problem.

00:46:29.000 It's why we wanted the border secured.

00:46:30.000 It's Biden's fault.

00:46:32.000 And Trump is the hero who's going to rectify it.

00:46:35.000 Well, I don't know if you guys remember that video.

00:46:37.000 There was an independent journalist that was filming down at the border under President Biden.

00:46:41.000 And there was this guy.

00:46:42.000 He might have had an Arabian accent.

00:46:44.000 I'm not really sure.

00:46:45.000 But he was telling the videographer, he's like, oh, you don't know who I am?

00:46:49.000 Don't worry.

00:46:50.000 Pretty soon, you'll know who I am.

00:46:52.000 You remember that video?

00:46:53.000 Yes, I remember that video.

00:46:53.000 So he was warning the Americans, because he knew, like, hey, I'm going to post you.

00:46:58.000 I've got your face.

00:46:59.000 I'm going to post you.

00:47:00.000 And the guy was kind of, like, egging him on.

00:47:01.000 He's like, oh, do you know who I am?

00:47:02.000 And the videographer's like, no, I have no idea.

00:47:04.000 He's like, pretty soon, you and your people are going to know exactly who I am.

00:47:07.000 So, I mean, the stage, I guess, for lack of a better word, is kind of set already.

00:47:13.000 Tinder's already there, Tim, right?

00:47:14.000 And all it's going to take is, we've got no Kings Day tomorrow.

00:47:17.000 I'm getting from sources that we've got LAPD sources texting me, people that work in these offices saying we're going to be completely overwhelmed tomorrow.

00:47:27.000 We don't have enough manpower for even just the small cities, let alone the big proper LA proper in downtown LA.

00:47:34.000 Let's set aside any even conspiratorial thinking on this matter.

00:47:39.000 Iran is pissed.

00:47:40.000 They're threatening retaliation against the United States for our involvement in the Israel-Iran war, and we are supposed to have millions of people marching in the streets tomorrow across the country?

00:47:49.000 That is a perfect opportunity for our enemies in all seriousness.

00:47:52.000 Now, the concern...

00:47:55.000 They are.

00:47:56.000 Yeah, I mean, you know, I was talking about this earlier, and I was thinking, I mentioned this in one of the morning segments, how come criminals get caught?

00:48:06.000 So stupidly.

00:48:07.000 And I'm like, oh, because if they were smart, they wouldn't be criminals.

00:48:09.000 They'd make money in a relatively easy way.

00:48:11.000 Iran is in the position they're in because they're not that smart.

00:48:14.000 That's fair.

00:48:15.000 But also people are emotional.

00:48:18.000 They may be thinking, you know what?

00:48:20.000 We're going to lose, but who cares?

00:48:22.000 We're going to make sure the world hears us.

00:48:23.000 It's like that—let's do a pop culture reference.

00:48:27.000 When Ivan Vanko says to Tony Stark at the beginning of Iron Man 2, when you make God bleed, the sharks will come.

00:48:34.000 There are people that know.

00:48:36.000 I mean, these are people who kill themselves.

00:48:39.000 They will not see the fruits of their attack.

00:48:41.000 So I wouldn't put it past Iran to actually say, let's take the opportunity to attack Americans.

00:48:45.000 However, that being said, my point is, I also believe I wouldn't put it past U.S. intel to be like, this is the perfect opportunity to false flag Iran.

00:48:53.000 Yeah.

00:48:54.000 Yeah.

00:48:54.000 If you know what they did with the Bay of Pigs, where they're trying to, or no, it was Cuba.

00:48:59.000 Yeah, Operation Northwoods.

00:49:02.000 They tried to get Kennedy to sign off on a false flag.

00:49:05.000 Lemnitzer.

00:49:05.000 What was it?

00:49:06.000 Lemnitzer.

00:49:07.000 What's that?

00:49:07.000 That was the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

00:49:09.000 Oh, he wanted to get him.

00:49:10.000 And he wanted Kennedy to sign off on false flag attacks where they would have fake Cubans attack Americans.

00:49:15.000 Yeah, Americans dressed up in Cuban outfits attacking Americans.

00:49:17.000 They were going to kill Americans to make the attack, and then people get pissed off at the Cubans, and then they want to go to war with Cuba.

00:49:22.000 So, like, see, we're in the age of decentralized combat.

00:49:26.000 Another pop culture reference.

00:49:27.000 How many of you have seen Andor?

00:49:28.000 Negative.

00:49:29.000 I saw the first season.

00:49:30.000 Spoiler alert.

00:49:32.000 I'll keep it light.

00:49:33.000 But second season largely involves...

00:49:35.000 That's why I recommend you watch it, though there's like woke elements to it.

00:49:37.000 I do like the...

00:49:43.000 Check it out.

00:49:43.000 Because they need a reaction from a certain group of people so that they can justify their actions to the Empire.

00:49:50.000 To the rest of the planets.

00:49:51.000 And now, so like...

00:49:56.000 The telephone, the radio made it so command could get to the guy on the ground.

00:50:00.000 Now we've got AI is going to be able to command its own drone from the drone.

00:50:05.000 So like, really, every commander is its own unit, almost.

00:50:09.000 And anyone can go rogue and dress up in an outfit of an Iranian and do some crap.

00:50:16.000 Highly explosive crap.

00:50:17.000 Not anyone, but a lot of people.

00:50:18.000 Man, I'm actually pretty worried about tomorrow.

00:50:20.000 I'm so glad we're at the man-made horrors beyond our comprehension stage.

00:50:24.000 You know, to be fair, they were always within our comprehension is the worst part about it.

00:50:28.000 Yeah, I mean, you know, I'm reading the chat right now and everyone's like, oh, you guys are just trying to fear monger.

00:50:32.000 But let's just be honest, like no Trump supporter is going to be out there counter protesting the liberals that are out there protesting.

00:50:39.000 I mean, I'm just saying from like six days of seeing the protests in downtown LA with Mexican flags, communist flags.

00:50:46.000 Did you see the Dallas videos?

00:50:48.000 I wasn't coming now.

00:50:49.000 In Texas, people are waving American flags and counter-protesting armed, and they have guns, and there's a woman with her hand on her gun telling people to get back.

00:50:57.000 There are militias taking control of the streets in San Antonio.

00:51:00.000 Were you guys advised people to stay home tomorrow, generally?

00:51:03.000 I mean, I'll be out there as an independent journalist.

00:51:06.000 Like, nothing's really going to stop me.

00:51:08.000 I mean, I've got bulletproof vest.

00:51:10.000 I've got a bulletproof helmet.

00:51:11.000 I mean, I don't know how good that's going to do if an explosion goes off.

00:51:14.000 Like a gas mask?

00:51:14.000 Oh, I got a gas mask, yeah.

00:51:16.000 Oh, yeah, I've been doing this.

00:51:17.000 I covered the Floyd riots from beginning to end.

00:51:19.000 I was in Minneapolis when they gave the verdict to Derek Chauvin.

00:51:22.000 Okay.

00:51:23.000 You know, free my boy, Derek Chauvin.

00:51:24.000 Yeah, his last name, how unlucky, Chauvinism?

00:51:26.000 And his name's Chauvin?

00:51:27.000 What does Chauvinism mean?

00:51:30.000 Good question.

00:51:31.000 It means patriotism.

00:51:32.000 Oh, it means staunch nationalism.

00:51:35.000 That's weird.

00:51:36.000 I got twisted to mean that you're...

00:51:39.000 Misogynistic.

00:51:40.000 Oh, that's chivalry.

00:51:41.000 Male chauvinist.

00:51:43.000 Chauvinist means staunch nationalist.

00:51:45.000 Interesting.

00:51:45.000 Yep.

00:51:46.000 Okay.

00:51:47.000 Yeah.

00:51:48.000 How they lie.

00:51:49.000 I'm not fear-mongering right now.

00:51:54.000 It doesn't mean you're not going to do it, or it doesn't mean that you're going to stop and change, but you've got to acknowledge threats when you see them, and this is a very potential threat.

00:52:01.000 You're fear-mongering.

00:52:02.000 Am I?

00:52:03.000 Such a fear-mongering.

00:52:04.000 The original definition, let's just be real.

00:52:06.000 The original definition was excessive or unreasonable patriotism and nationalism, a fervent faith in your nation.

00:52:14.000 However, from there, it evolved into a prejudicial person.

00:52:17.000 Okay, so just obsessive, the first part of it, the obsessiveness of it.

00:52:22.000 It came from a legend.

00:52:26.000 There you go.

00:52:49.000 Okay, I think I heard that right.

00:52:51.000 He was betrayed by Napoleon or he was just injured?

00:52:53.000 No, he was injured in the war and he wasn't paid very well.

00:52:55.000 And he maintained love for the state and the dear leader.

00:52:58.000 Just the last thing I'll say about L.A. too is, per my sources at LAPD, they're calling in every single police officer.

00:53:05.000 Like, I know police officers that were on vacation.

00:53:07.000 They're like, no, vacation's canceled.

00:53:09.000 You're all coming in.

00:53:10.000 You know?

00:53:10.000 So, yeah, I'm not trying to fear the monger.

00:53:12.000 I'm just trying to give the data.

00:53:14.000 Yeah, out here, it's supposed to rain.

00:53:16.000 And Trump's having his military parade.

00:53:18.000 Yeah.

00:53:18.000 So, okay, so let's just say this.

00:53:24.000 We have been told for a couple years now, Joe Biden opened the border, Chinese nationals, Afghan nationals, extremist terrorists of various factions from various countries have entered this country, several Iranians that they fear may be terrorism into the country.

00:53:39.000 Israel is bombing Iran.

00:53:41.000 Iran has vowed to retaliate against the U.S. in the region.

00:53:44.000 We've got the no kings across the country.

00:53:47.000 And Trump's military parade is supposed to take place tomorrow.

00:53:49.000 What's the no kings?

00:53:51.000 That's just the anti-Trump protest.

00:53:52.000 Oh.

00:53:53.000 But the other threat assessment is the risk to Trump's military parade.

00:53:58.000 Imagine if there was an Iranian terror attack on Trump's military parade.

00:54:02.000 Yeah.

00:54:02.000 Oh, heaven forbid, man.

00:54:05.000 Once again, the narrative is MAGA is going to say to the Democrats, we told you this is your fault Biden did this.

00:54:12.000 Trump's going to then say we will not stand for an attack on our men and women in uniform.

00:54:16.000 We must enter the fray.

00:54:17.000 And then we're on the ground.

00:54:19.000 I'm like, I'm trying to do the math of who supports what, because the anti-Israel protests don't like the Iranian attack, but...

00:54:30.000 The anti-Israel don't like it?

00:54:31.000 The anti-Israel people don't support Israel's attack on Iran.

00:54:35.000 Yes.

00:54:36.000 Well, I'm not anti-Israel, but I also don't support it.

00:54:40.000 That's a good point.

00:54:41.000 That was a real generic anti-Israel.

00:54:42.000 No, no, I know.

00:54:43.000 That means you're pro-Israel.

00:54:44.000 No, but I'm not, though, either.

00:54:46.000 Nope, you are.

00:54:46.000 I'm neither.

00:54:47.000 I'm not anti-Israel, too, but I don't support the attack.

00:54:49.000 Do you think there's a place called Israel?

00:54:51.000 Oh, yeah.

00:54:52.000 Then you're pro-Israel.

00:54:53.000 What?

00:54:54.000 It's funny.

00:54:55.000 So, I love this.

00:54:58.000 Because you're not even familiar with the ideological capture of the Israel issue.

00:55:05.000 By simply believing that Israel exists, you are pro-Israel.

00:55:10.000 Because your worldview supports the existence of the Israeli state, which was manufactured by the British Empire and stole the land from the Palestinian people.

00:55:19.000 Don't ask how the Palestinians got there.

00:55:21.000 It's like if you support the Republic of China governing Taiwan, then you are pro-China.

00:55:29.000 I didn't know this until people were calling me pros.

00:55:31.000 I was like, I don't care.

00:55:32.000 I don't want to be involved.

00:55:32.000 And they were like, the fact that you think Israel exists proves that your worldview is proven I think Ahmadinejad, was that the Iranian?

00:55:41.000 Ahmadinejad, yeah.

00:55:42.000 He was saying that Israel should be wiped off the map.

00:55:45.000 They kept quoting him.

00:55:46.000 I think he was like, it should be removed from the map because it's not a real place.

00:55:49.000 I don't acknowledge the creation of it.

00:55:52.000 Is there a safe third option?

00:55:55.000 How about my son just swore into the Air Force last week and I just don't want war?

00:56:00.000 Is there a concerned father option?

00:56:04.000 To the anti-Israel people.

00:56:07.000 So there's sane, rational people who understand Israel exists and they're critical of it.

00:56:10.000 But in the ideological captured space, you are either they're as such a thing as Israel and they're occupiers or you're pro-Israel.

00:56:18.000 In the Middle Ages, we had a really cool idea.

00:56:21.000 I think we should go back to it.

00:56:23.000 Where Christians ruled over?

00:56:24.000 Where we had it.

00:56:26.000 Rome.

00:56:26.000 I'm okay with that.

00:56:27.000 Rome, the orthodoxy, I don't really care.

00:56:31.000 We're looking at it right now.

00:56:32.000 The Muslims can't hang there.

00:56:34.000 Israel can't hang there.

00:56:35.000 They can't play nice.

00:56:35.000 Give it to the Christians.

00:56:36.000 This is the thing about if you want to protect your kids and your ideas is like, I don't want fighting.

00:56:41.000 I want to protect my children.

00:56:43.000 One argument is if we don't go in and attack the Iranians now, they're going to get a nuclear war.

00:56:47.000 Then they're going to attack and we're going to be on the defensive and it's going to be worse.

00:56:50.000 The other argument is don't go in and attack Iran because that's going to create the war.

00:56:54.000 If you don't go in, the war is not going to happen.

00:56:56.000 Here's the part that just doesn't make any sense to me.

00:57:00.000 Israel's right there, but so is Europe.

00:57:02.000 Aren't they a much bigger threat to Europe and Israel than the U.S.?

00:57:06.000 Why are we there?

00:57:07.000 Why aren't we hearing reports today that Britain helped intercept missiles?

00:57:12.000 Why is it us?

00:57:13.000 We're there.

00:57:14.000 That's what doesn't make sense to me.

00:57:16.000 They are.

00:57:16.000 So NATO countries are also involved in the interception, according to numerous reports that I've seen.

00:57:21.000 Oh, I didn't see.

00:57:22.000 I'm sorry.

00:57:22.000 But the issue is, the United States, in this liberal world order, we're the world police.

00:57:29.000 This is why we bombed the Houthi rebels, because they were interfering with global trade routes.

00:57:35.000 So we set up military bases all over the Middle East because we're the world police.

00:57:38.000 We don't want to back away because we don't want China to come in.

00:57:40.000 Iran refuses to get in line with a liberal economic order.

00:57:46.000 And so they're an enemy that needs to be removed and put under control.

00:57:51.000 And then they don't, so the U.S. says we'll blow you up.

00:57:53.000 Here's my biggest concern, and this is where I have Jewish friends, and a lot of people call me an anti-Semite, whatever, because I don't want to support this new war.

00:58:01.000 I'm not pro-Israel enough or whatever.

00:58:04.000 But here's the thing.

00:58:05.000 I'm a U.S. veteran.

00:58:07.000 I served over a decade in armed forces, and I served right after 9-11.

00:58:11.000 I was in high school when 9-11 happened.

00:58:13.000 During those 10 years, I started listening to podcasts and listening to people on their take on 9-11.

00:58:19.000 I can safely say now that I have a lot of questions about 9-11.

00:58:23.000 I have a lot of questions about what our own government was up to, how much they knew, etc.

00:58:27.000 And so to this day, and I'm not the only one, there's a lot of U.S. veterans that feel that we served under a big lie, that we were lied to, that we were sent overseas.

00:58:38.000 Supposedly under weapons of mass destruction, but that's not the truth.

00:58:41.000 And now here I am again, right?

00:58:44.000 We finally left the Middle East.

00:58:45.000 I'm happy.

00:58:46.000 Cool.

00:58:46.000 I have my son who just enlisted.

00:58:48.000 He joined the Air Force.

00:58:49.000 He ships off to boot camp in September.

00:58:52.000 And now we're doing this again.

00:58:54.000 But this time it's Israel launching first.

00:58:57.000 And people are like, like Mark Levin.

00:59:00.000 He's like, it is America first.

00:59:02.000 I'm like, look, man.

00:59:03.000 On my father's side, I'm fifth-generation American.

00:59:06.000 My grandfather served.

00:59:08.000 He was a prisoner of war in Korea.

00:59:09.000 My father served as a U.S. Army Ranger through the Special Forces.

00:59:13.000 I served, and now my son is serving.

00:59:15.000 But it's like we're tired of these wars.

00:59:18.000 And what I'm more tired about is the lives that we go to war under.

00:59:22.000 And I just feel personally, and sure, people can call me whatever they want, that I'm I just don't think that's a legitimate reason to enter a new conflict in the Middle East that one day my son will call me and be like, Dad, I'm getting deployed to the Middle East.

00:59:41.000 Let's jump to the story from The Independent.

00:59:43.000 Tucker Carlson turns it up.

00:59:45.000 X-Fox News host Blast's complicit president for backing Israel after attacks in Iran.

00:59:59.000 Quote, despite being complicit in the act of war, the president hopes last night's events will help his ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran.

01:00:07.000 While the American military may not have physically perpetrated the assault, years of funding and sending weapons to Israel, which Donald Trump has just bragged about in Truth Social, undeniably placed the U.S. at the center of last night's event.

01:00:19.000 So we also have this tweet from Tucker where he's directly calling people out.

01:00:24.000 He says the real divide isn't between people who support Israel and people who support Iran or the Palestinians.

01:00:29.000 The real divide is between those who casually encourage violence and those who seek to prevent it.

01:00:34.000 Between warmongers and peacemakers.

01:00:36.000 Who are the warmongers?

01:00:37.000 They would include anyone who is calling Donald Trump today to demand airstrikes and other direct U.S. military involvement in the war with Iran.

01:00:43.000 On that list, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Rupert Murdoch, Ike Perlmutter, and Miriam Adelson.

01:00:49.000 At some point, they will all have to answer for this, but you should know their names now.

01:00:56.000 You're here, Tucker.

01:00:57.000 He was incensed, it seems.

01:01:01.000 Well, I mean, where is it?

01:01:03.000 Any of the warmongers or the people that support American airstrikes, I'm telling you, the argument they're going to make against that is if we don't attack now, we're going to get attacked.

01:01:11.000 It's just age-old rhetoric because you can't prove the argument.

01:01:18.000 Yeah, I mean, it's still—I don't feel like the United States is who's obligated to do the attack.

01:01:25.000 Granted, we are involved if we're helping to defend Israel, but still, like— And funding it.

01:01:31.000 Well, we're funding it through foreign aid, yeah, but— I still don't feel like it's the United States' responsibility to do it.

01:01:40.000 And I don't know why people are acting like we're obligated or like it's definitely going to be the United States or like this is going to expand into a broader war.

01:01:49.000 I don't think that's going to happen.

01:01:52.000 It's because we are, the American people, we're basically the arms dealer for the liberal economic order.

01:01:57.000 They created this military-industrial complex throughout our system where we are now addicted to it.

01:02:03.000 If we try to remove it, the militarism from our system, it falls apart.

01:02:07.000 So they basically infected us with it.

01:02:10.000 That doesn't answer why.

01:02:12.000 People expect the United States to be obligated to engage in combat with Iran.

01:02:20.000 We are the militant arm of the liberal economic order.

01:02:24.000 This is a war against the liberal economic order and the Middle Eastern caliphate, basically, is what this fight is.

01:02:30.000 And they're using the American force because they've created us to be the spearhead.

01:02:35.000 Who's they created?

01:02:36.000 The bankers.

01:02:37.000 You know, the bankers.

01:02:39.000 What do you mean by that?

01:02:40.000 What do you mean they?

01:02:41.000 The Bank for International Settlements that's funding, you know, the Federal Reserve that's funding our government.

01:02:46.000 Oh, he means the Swiss.

01:02:47.000 Bankers.

01:02:47.000 Interesting.

01:02:48.000 I think that the money is definitely incentivizing.

01:02:51.000 I still don't see how any of this obligates the United States to take military action against Iran.

01:03:00.000 Well, if it doesn't, nothing happens.

01:03:02.000 So it's like, and Trump...

01:03:08.000 Israel's not going to stop just because the United States isn't going to take military action.

01:03:12.000 He literally said that many times.

01:03:13.000 Yeah, so it's not if the U.S. doesn't do it, then nothing happens.

01:03:17.000 Israel's definitely going to continue this, and Iran is likely to continue attacking Israel for this.

01:03:23.000 I don't know that they could if the U.S. isn't supporting their behavior.

01:03:26.000 I don't think they could.

01:03:28.000 Do an attack like this and survive.

01:03:30.000 Why?

01:03:30.000 Who, Israel?

01:03:31.000 Yeah.

01:03:32.000 I think the same thing.

01:03:33.000 I think that if Israel, like I said, they're fighting so many fronts, that if Israel were to fight Iran, I just don't believe Ben Shapiro when he says, oh, Israel can just take care of itself.

01:03:43.000 Okay, sure, then show us, because you attacked already, and we've already had to help intercept.

01:03:48.000 In the past.

01:03:49.000 Who?

01:03:50.000 Israel.

01:03:51.000 They've taken care of themselves multiple times.

01:03:53.000 They've fought every single country in the Middle East.

01:03:57.000 How long have we been funding them, though?

01:03:59.000 Since the very beginning.

01:04:00.000 Just because we've been giving them military aid doesn't mean that it was the United States.

01:04:05.000 I kind of have a Matt Walsh take.

01:04:07.000 If you're a country that can't defend yourself, then maybe you shouldn't exist.

01:04:11.000 Does that include developing your own weapons?

01:04:13.000 Because most countries don't actually have a significant military-industrial complex infrastructure.

01:04:18.000 They buy them from other countries.

01:04:21.000 Yeah, us, France, Russia, you know, there's some countries that do.

01:04:27.000 But if buying or acquiring military arms from someone else means that you don't have the ability to stand, then there's only like five countries that can.

01:04:38.000 I think the best headline out of all of them is that the largest gay parade event.

01:04:48.000 Yeah, it's probably a good idea to be able to, you know, get to your bunker in case of incoming missiles.

01:04:59.000 I feel like an Israeli gay pride parade right after an Israeli attack on nuclear facilities in Iran is like an Islamic terrorist's wet dream.

01:05:09.000 Like that is like so many birds with one stone.

01:05:12.000 Well, I mean, I don't know about.

01:05:17.000 I just, here's my, again, like I just come from a family where four, fourth generation of veteran.

01:05:23.000 I'm just, This is the country that gave my family everything.

01:05:28.000 On my father's side, we came from Italy.

01:05:31.000 So my great-grandfather, who actually has the same mustache I do, that's why I let it grow out.

01:05:35.000 I promised myself that when I get out of the military, I'm going to grow my grandfather, who's Italian, my great-grandfather mustache.

01:05:43.000 But on my mom's side, she's from Mexico.

01:05:46.000 And this is a country we love.

01:05:48.000 We don't wave foreign flags.

01:05:49.000 We don't allow foreign flags in our home.

01:05:52.000 We love this country.

01:05:54.000 I want to see this country prosper.

01:05:55.000 And it just irks me to see that here we go with Israel and it's starting another war, another war front.

01:06:02.000 And it's like, help, we're getting attacked.

01:06:04.000 And it's like, all right, well, just intercept the missiles because Tel Aviv is getting rocked again.

01:06:09.000 And it's just, again, I'm just a concerned father.

01:06:14.000 I don't want my son to call me, Dad, my first duty station is not going to be Japan the way we had talked about, and I was hoping to go there.

01:06:19.000 Yeah, it's going to be, hey, I'm stationed now, because he's going into cybersecurity.

01:06:26.000 So I'm just like, dude, he's going to go right there, and it's like, here we go again, man.

01:06:32.000 Yeah, I still have a hard time.

01:06:36.000 Understanding why there are so many people that are demanding or just refuse to entertain other options aside from the United States actually getting involved in direct combat with Iran.

01:06:50.000 I don't see that being the case.

01:06:54.000 The U.S. killed Soleimani and that didn't turn into some big burning of the whole Middle East.

01:07:03.000 Not that I'm really big on nothing ever happens, but I really do think that this is going to be a situation kind of like, there's going to be some combat between the two, and then they're going to chill out because nothing ever happens.

01:07:15.000 Well, I forgot who said it, but they said there's a really good chance that nothing happens.

01:07:19.000 Like, Iran just says, okay, you know, we struck back.

01:07:21.000 I agree.

01:07:22.000 And this actually happened, what was it, a couple months ago, where Israel attacked Iran, and Iran says, like, okay, we're closing down the airspace and we're sending missiles that take two hours.

01:07:33.000 No.

01:07:33.000 No, definitely not.

01:07:42.000 That's why Saudi Arabia came out and they said, we strongly condemn Israel for attacking our Muslim brothers and Arab brothers.

01:07:49.000 But then they're like, they're not going to do anything.

01:07:51.000 Right.

01:07:52.000 Well, the Saudis are chilling right now.

01:07:54.000 They're in good with us.

01:07:55.000 They got their oil money.

01:07:57.000 Well, the Saudis also like the idea of a less powerful Iran.

01:08:02.000 Yeah.

01:08:03.000 You know, if Iran, when they say Iran with a nuclear weapon destabilizes the region, it's not just about Israel, though Israel is the main target and the thing that's going to garner the most attention in the Middle East.

01:08:15.000 Like, the Saudis don't like the Iranians and they don't want them to have nuclear weapons either.

01:08:21.000 I also think they're heretics.

01:08:22.000 Like, they have a serious religious problem with the Iranians because they're Shias.

01:08:26.000 Shia versus Sunni.

01:08:27.000 Because the Iranians are Shia?

01:08:29.000 Yeah.

01:08:29.000 What's the difference between Shia and Sunni?

01:08:31.000 Shia is a much smaller sect.

01:08:33.000 I believe it's about 10% of the Muslim population, and they are the more radical of the two, the more religious.

01:08:41.000 They're the more religious of the two.

01:08:42.000 I think they believe in exactly 12 imams.

01:08:45.000 And we're on the last one right now or something like that.

01:08:47.000 I can't remember the exact details.

01:08:49.000 But basically there's the western version, the one that spread west across North Africa and became the Islamic Empire.

01:08:56.000 That was the Sunni side.

01:08:58.000 And the Shia side took root in Iran.

01:09:00.000 It has to do with who should have been Muhammad's successor.

01:09:03.000 His daughter is the Shia or the ones that thought his daughter, Fatima, was that her name?

01:09:08.000 So the Shia was, they wanted his cousin and son-in-law, and the Sunni believe Abu Bakr, that was like his number two guy, was supposed to be the leader.

01:09:19.000 Like I said earlier, basically spiritual succession versus lineal succession.

01:09:23.000 Oh, bloodline versus spiritual right?

01:09:26.000 Interesting.

01:09:27.000 Yeah, the Sunni, I don't want to take sides.

01:09:30.000 Just from an outsider, the Sunni look more legit.

01:09:33.000 I don't want to take sides, but I'm right.

01:09:34.000 Obviously 90%.

01:09:35.000 I love the Sunnis.

01:09:36.000 Where they worship the sun?

01:09:37.000 Is that where the word sun comes from?

01:09:39.000 S-U-N?

01:09:40.000 It's Semitic.

01:09:41.000 It has nothing to do with the sun.

01:09:42.000 Really?

01:09:43.000 Okay.

01:09:43.000 Yeah.

01:09:45.000 And the majority of Muslims are Sunni.

01:09:49.000 She is a small sect.

01:09:52.000 And Iran likes to poke people in the eyes because they don't want to get along with anyone.

01:09:56.000 I still, one of the best moments on the show ever was when Michael Knowles called Seamus a Wahhabi Shiite Catholic.

01:10:02.000 And Seamus went, thank you, Michael, thank you!

01:10:05.000 Oh yeah, Sunni comes from Sunnah, which means way or tradition.

01:10:10.000 So this is like, it's the traditional, and then Shia, what's Shia mean?

01:10:16.000 There are very few Shia-majority countries.

01:10:18.000 It's Iran, Iraq, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Lebanon, Yemen, and then that's basically it.

01:10:25.000 Yemen, that makes sense there, so that the Iranians are supporting the Yemenis.

01:10:30.000 Lebanon used to be Christian.

01:10:32.000 Yeah, well.

01:10:33.000 And then we got outbred.

01:10:34.000 It's not anymore.

01:10:36.000 A lot of places used to be Christian.

01:10:38.000 Funny how that happens.

01:10:40.000 When are the Abrahamic religions gonna break bread?

01:10:43.000 We aren't.

01:10:44.000 Ever?

01:10:45.000 Aren't they supposed to?

01:10:46.000 We don't want to.

01:10:47.000 Wouldn't Abraham want them to?

01:10:48.000 No.

01:10:49.000 We had this debate this morning and it was actually something that got pretty fiery where Jay and I were on one side and Tim and Tim were on the other side.

01:10:58.000 No, but Jay got mad at you.

01:10:58.000 Yeah, I know.

01:10:59.000 I don't know how that happened.

01:11:00.000 Don't be a Protestant, guys.

01:11:02.000 It's rough out here.

01:11:03.000 This morning we had a debate on Orthodox and Catholicism and Protestantism.

01:11:09.000 I was just kind of there.

01:11:11.000 The argument that we were having, Jay and I were sitting there like, well, the Catholics in Vatican II are arguing that Muslims believe in the same God that we do, and Tim didn't agree with that.

01:11:19.000 But basically what we all agreed upon is that no, Muslims do not worship the same God that we do.

01:11:24.000 We worship a Trinitarian God.

01:11:27.000 There were two Tims.

01:11:28.000 I thought you said Tim didn't agree with that.

01:11:30.000 No, Tim didn't agree with our take.

01:11:33.000 Yeah, I might have misspoken.

01:11:35.000 Vatican II basically was saying, my interpretation was that What they had written in the book is that Hindus are looking for God, and they found some of the secrets, and Muslims are worshipping God, but they're all doing it wrong, and they need to be doing it this way.

01:11:50.000 And so I said, oh yeah, I get that.

01:11:52.000 It was more of a dogmatic contradiction argument than anything, but the point was that we all agreed.

01:11:57.000 Muslims do not worship the Christian God, at least not properly.

01:12:01.000 They might be trying to, but they're not doing it.

01:12:03.000 And in the same way, Christians worship a Trinitarian God.

01:12:07.000 the Jews do not and the Muslims do not.

01:12:08.000 So neither of us...

01:12:12.000 Jews and Christians do not agree with each other on worshiping the same God.

01:12:15.000 But we also look at it kind of as a, you know, live and let live situation.

01:12:19.000 Let's jump to this next story.

01:12:20.000 Ladies and gentlemen, breaking news.

01:12:22.000 War is gay.

01:12:23.000 And that's not...

01:12:25.000 That's a fact.

01:12:26.000 We have this from the Pentagon Pizza Report.

01:12:28.000 Freddy's Beach Bar, the closest gay bar to the Pentagon, has abnormally low traffic for a Thursday night, potentially indicating a busy night at the Pentagon.

01:12:36.000 And as we can see here on Google, you can see for the, I believe that's the 10, from 9 to 10, 10 to 11, nobody's there.

01:12:45.000 What the heck?

01:12:46.000 Nobody's there.

01:12:47.000 Where's Lindsey Graham?

01:12:48.000 Later, it's a ghost town.

01:12:49.000 So the gay bar was empty.

01:12:50.000 Yeah, where's Lindsey Graham?

01:12:51.000 I mean, I'm not saying...

01:12:56.000 Who did she work with?

01:12:57.000 Bannon, right?

01:12:58.000 She just came out with this big article saying that just basically everybody is gay in D.C. Just some of them are open and some of them are not.

01:13:06.000 And then I replied to her, and what was really surprising to me was the article, for whatever reason, had Terrence Williams on it.

01:13:13.000 And so— He, Terrence Williams?

01:13:18.000 Where did she post this?

01:13:18.000 On X?

01:13:19.000 She posted it on X, yeah.

01:13:21.000 And so I replied and I said, wait, why did the New York Post, I don't know who posted it, why did they use a picture of Terrence Williams?

01:13:30.000 Is he gay?

01:13:31.000 And she just replied, LMFAO.

01:13:34.000 And I'm like, oh my gosh.

01:13:35.000 Yeah.

01:13:36.000 I couldn't believe it.

01:13:37.000 I was like, wait, why did they use that?

01:13:44.000 So if they're out, they're Democrat.

01:13:45.000 If they're closeted, they're Republican.

01:13:47.000 And she confirmed that.

01:13:49.000 Yeah.

01:13:50.000 Scott Presser says true.

01:13:51.000 Then it must be.

01:13:53.000 It must be true.

01:13:54.000 My goodness.

01:13:55.000 Maybe they're just focused on their work.

01:13:57.000 No, that's probably not true.

01:13:59.000 I mean, we're not talking about, you know...

01:14:12.000 Yes.

01:14:13.000 The grossest, darkest.

01:14:14.000 Addison Cawthorn warned us.

01:14:16.000 Yeah.

01:14:16.000 Oh, yeah.

01:14:17.000 And then that video came out, which shall not be described.

01:14:20.000 Oh, really?

01:14:21.000 A video?

01:14:21.000 Dudes.

01:14:22.000 The video of the two guys in the Senate chambers?

01:14:23.000 Yeah, yeah.

01:14:24.000 Oh, my God.

01:14:25.000 Look what you make me do.

01:14:26.000 Ian did that on purpose.

01:14:27.000 Made you think about it.

01:14:28.000 It was disgusting.

01:14:28.000 Whatever you do, don't watch that video.

01:14:31.000 No, I'm kidding.

01:14:31.000 Dude should be in jail.

01:14:33.000 Yeah.

01:14:33.000 I'm surprised he's not.

01:14:34.000 Yep.

01:14:36.000 Why are you surprised he's not?

01:14:37.000 Did they have to kill everyone else?

01:14:39.000 The guy that was having sex on the Senate floor?

01:14:44.000 I bet a lot of the Epstein files would out a lot of gay dudes for banging little boys, and I'm sure that's – Well, according to Elon, there's a reason why they're not out yet.

01:14:56.000 Yeah, I don't know.

01:14:57.000 He said he regretted that.

01:14:59.000 Yeah, what happened?

01:15:00.000 Do you regret that you...

01:15:06.000 Or do you regret making the story up?

01:15:08.000 Because that difference is pretty important.

01:15:11.000 I don't like how that just got swept under the rug and we're pretending it didn't happen.

01:15:15.000 Well, you know what's funny is Blue Anon, so I actually have people, even in Spanish media, some Spanish leftists that I follow, there's this guy, his name is Carlos Eduardo Espina.

01:15:24.000 He's like the number one TikToker in Spanish and he does media and politics in America.

01:15:29.000 He's part of that Blue Anon.

01:15:31.000 He went out and said, isn't it weird that after Elon Musk accused Donald Trump of being on the files, that suddenly we have riots across the city?

01:15:38.000 And I was like, wait a minute.

01:15:40.000 You guys actually believe that Donald Trump is inciting violence in cities because he wants to hide the fact that Elon said this about him?

01:15:48.000 That's really what they believe.

01:15:49.000 They believe like, oh, suddenly...

01:15:57.000 And then three days later, we had nationwide riots.

01:16:01.000 They were covering it up, and I'm like, alright, well, maybe it's not so far-fetched.

01:16:04.000 Who knows?

01:16:06.000 I keep thinking about the Assassin's Creed line, nothing is true, everything is permitted.

01:16:11.000 Like, more and more I'm starting to understand what they meant by that, because it confused the hell out of me as a kid.

01:16:16.000 But, like, the idea that just everything that's happening around right now is, in a way, propaganda that's been planned.

01:16:22.000 Yeah.

01:16:23.000 And even if it's not, we all assume it is.

01:16:24.000 I mean, there's the reality, you know, there's a saying, you know, that hackers have.

01:16:30.000 If you're not cheating, you're not trying.

01:16:34.000 Because the essence of what cheating is, is finding the shortest path, finding the path of least resistance.

01:16:40.000 And so there are people who are like, no, no, we do things right.

01:16:45.000 And then they wonder why it is that they're wealthy and famous people doing all the wrong things.

01:16:49.000 That's the problem.

01:16:49.000 Because sometimes the right thing is the path to success.

01:16:52.000 I don't believe in doing the wrong thing.

01:16:54.000 But I can see the people who do the wrong thing succeeding rapidly, and it's like – Well, you question your own morality because the righteous and ethical thing is not the fastest and easiest way.

01:17:07.000 Sometimes you end up getting destroyed if you try and be ethical.

01:17:10.000 So you have to cheat and become the villain of your own story to survive and win.

01:17:16.000 That's horrible, but that's also the reality.

01:17:18.000 That's where the Hindus got it right.

01:17:20.000 I think when they look at their gods, they have the creator and the destroyer, two aspects of one god, and then there's the protector.

01:17:26.000 The three aspects of one god.

01:17:28.000 Like, it's within all of us.

01:17:29.000 And I think many religions have the bad and the good.

01:17:34.000 The destroyer and the creator.

01:17:36.000 It's not just Hindus.

01:17:37.000 Yeah, but I like that they have, what was it, Vishnu and Shiva, I think, are the creator and the destroyer.

01:17:43.000 I'm not sure.

01:17:43.000 I don't want to get them wrong.

01:17:44.000 You like those things?

01:17:45.000 I like that it's within one.

01:17:46.000 There are different aspects within one.

01:17:49.000 Sure, and Egypt said Set and Ra.

01:17:51.000 Yeah.

01:17:52.000 Or Astrians have Hura Mazda and...

01:17:57.000 It's like a Hora Mainu.

01:17:58.000 Bill.

01:17:59.000 That would be good.

01:18:00.000 I like that.

01:18:01.000 Like an aspect of good and evil?

01:18:02.000 Yeah, Azur Mazda and Bill.

01:18:06.000 Zoroastrianism had good and evil.

01:18:08.000 It's a dualist religion.

01:18:08.000 They have a good god and a bad god.

01:18:10.000 If you look at Tolkien's work, while it's based upon Catholicism, it has the same dynamic where the creator god, the good god, can create, but the bad god can only twist and warp.

01:18:21.000 I just had a conversation, I think it was with Sean, that the Persians adopted Zoroastrianism, and then a tribe of Jews came, they were like, these Jewish people, they're polytheistic, the original Jews were polytheistic, is what I've been told, I don't know if this is true, and that the Persians adopted some of the Jews and taught them about Zoroastrianism, about the one God and the evil, and then those Jews adopted it into their faith, and it became the predominant sect of Judaism.

01:18:48.000 That's a fringe belief about the Babylonian exile.

01:18:51.000 Yeah, Ian.

01:18:52.000 That's a fringe belief about the Babylonian exile.

01:18:54.000 Good to know, Ian.

01:18:55.000 This guy.

01:18:56.000 I do enjoy the fringes.

01:18:57.000 You do.

01:18:58.000 You told me Santa Claus came from mushrooms once.

01:19:01.000 I just want to surround the perimeter before I start looking inward.

01:19:04.000 That's fair.

01:19:05.000 Make sure what's right and what's wrong.

01:19:06.000 Yeah, there's a couple of news with that.

01:19:09.000 Santa Claus came from mushrooms.

01:19:11.000 You can ask him about that one.

01:19:12.000 But yeah.

01:19:13.000 It's regarding the Siberian shaman that would eat the Amanita muscari underneath the...

01:19:24.000 And then they'd hang them over the fireplace in their socks to dry out the mushrooms overnight.

01:19:28.000 The red and the white mushrooms like Santa Claus outfit.

01:19:30.000 The next morning they'd drink a mushroom tea and trip.

01:19:33.000 Think about flying reindeer, I guess.

01:19:35.000 That's great.

01:19:36.000 I am learning so much right now.

01:19:37.000 my response that's just If you look up Siberian Shaman Santa, you'll see pictures of it.

01:19:43.000 It's wild.

01:19:44.000 No, just to kind of elaborate on that so I don't sound so dismissive.

01:19:47.000 Basically, there's two views.

01:19:49.000 Ian didn't make this up, by the way.

01:19:51.000 Oh, I know, I know.

01:19:52.000 One is that the Jews were already monotheistic.

01:19:57.000 They recognized the existence of multiple spiritual beings, but they worshipped Yahweh.

01:20:01.000 And then they came to Babylon and basically...

01:20:08.000 Cool.

01:20:09.000 And then Cyrus was like, you guys want to go back and build your temple?

01:20:11.000 Your God told me to.

01:20:12.000 And then the other one is that the Jews were polytheistic, came, the Zoroastrians taught the monotheism, and then they went back.

01:20:16.000 But I do not like the latter option as a scholar.

01:20:22.000 So Cyrus the Great was basically like, hey, Jews, let's just focus on Yahweh.

01:20:27.000 I forget if it was Cyrus or Darius.

01:20:28.000 It was Cyrus.

01:20:29.000 I believe it was Cyrus.

01:20:30.000 And then he told the Jews, like, No, the traditional argument for Jews and Christians is that the Jews were not polytheistic at that time.

01:20:41.000 That they had dipped their toes into polytheism in the northern kingdom of Israel, but the southern kingdom of Judah was strictly monotheistic.

01:20:49.000 So there's a little bit of give and take to it.

01:20:51.000 What about Odin?

01:20:54.000 Dude's baller, even if he's pagan.

01:20:56.000 But where'd he go?

01:20:57.000 They just stopped.

01:20:58.000 They were just like, nah.

01:20:59.000 They went...

01:21:05.000 Maybe our gods aren't that powerful and they converted.

01:21:07.000 And then what, they got paid off by the Vatican or something?

01:21:10.000 Did they bribe countries to become Christian?

01:21:12.000 No, the Norse got into Christian territories and basically the Christians went, alright, if you stop worshipping your gods and start worshipping our god, we'll let you trade, we'll let you marry us, we'll let you live in our territories.

01:21:23.000 And a lot of them went, okay.

01:21:26.000 So it sounds a lot like what they're trying to do in Iran.

01:21:28.000 Norse paganism into Christianity was a pretty peaceful transition.

01:21:31.000 How did we get here?

01:21:32.000 What are they trying to do in Iran?

01:21:34.000 They're trying to get you, hey, if you worship our God and get access to our liberal economic order, trade, we just want to open up your economy.

01:21:39.000 We just want access to all your data.

01:21:41.000 I mean, Trump has kind of been saying that, right?

01:21:43.000 Like, dude, let's strike a deal so that you guys can become a prosperous country.

01:21:46.000 I don't know if it's under the guise of, like, worship our God, but...

01:21:49.000 Yeah, I was being hyperbolic.

01:21:51.000 They didn't actually say that, but it sounds like that kind of, like, hey, join our...

01:21:56.000 I think this is another reason why the liberal economic order wants wokeness, because if you go to a deeply devout religious Muslim person and say, we want a normalized trade with you, they say, no, my faith, my life, my rules say this person is bad.

01:22:15.000 But imagine if you went to them and said, we're going to give you anything you've ever wanted, be a hedonist, if they didn't have strong moral convictions.

01:22:24.000 And they just wanted to wake up at 6 in the morning, do drugs, and masturbate.

01:22:28.000 Like, what's-her-face?

01:22:29.000 Much easier to get them under control.

01:22:31.000 Say, what do you need faith and religion for?

01:22:33.000 Who cares?

01:22:34.000 Take care of yourself.

01:22:35.000 Go to the gay club.

01:22:37.000 You know?

01:22:37.000 Here's some drugs.

01:22:38.000 If you get people to violate their own beliefs, then you got them.

01:22:42.000 Like, decadence is a huge sin in the Islamic faith.

01:22:45.000 If your family members are decadent, it shines on you as evil and corrupt.

01:22:53.000 So if they can get people to become decadent, that would be definitely subverted.

01:22:57.000 I think this is why the West is trying to make Palestine gay.

01:23:01.000 Make Palestine gay.

01:23:02.000 Yeah, I think, yeah.

01:23:04.000 Like, there's this big effort among the woke to associate Islam with being gay.

01:23:11.000 I'm not kidding.

01:23:11.000 At least in the West, yeah.

01:23:12.000 In the West, right.

01:23:13.000 Yeah.

01:23:14.000 And we make the joke that, like, if you go over there, they wouldn't accept that.

01:23:17.000 They are trying to force a hedonistic degenerate reformation on Islam.

01:23:24.000 Yeah, I don't have a whole lot of concern as to that working.

01:23:29.000 I think that's— In the West, maybe.

01:23:32.000 Well, to be fair, remember, what was it?

01:23:35.000 Some TV show depicted a Muslim—a female, like, Muslim lesbian.

01:23:42.000 And it was like a lesbian relationship, and then the woman was like, I'm a Muslim, and then the Muslim community went nuts, and they were like, how dare you?

01:23:48.000 And the media was trying to be like, be gay, do it.

01:23:52.000 Because imagine how easy it is to control everybody if you're like, you have no convictions, you have no morals, simply pleasure yourself.

01:23:59.000 And they'd all fall in line.

01:24:01.000 I think Islam has some built-in defenses to that.

01:24:05.000 Yeah, well, Christianity should too, but look what's going on in the United States.

01:24:07.000 Christianity doesn't have the same kind of funding.

01:24:13.000 With Islam, if you talk about leaving the religion, you can get killed for that.

01:24:19.000 There's nothing like that in Christianity.

01:24:22.000 So the reason that Islam is so resistant to change is because of their embrace of violence.

01:24:29.000 It's acceptable to use violence when people blaspheme.

01:24:33.000 It's acceptable to use violence if people leave the religion.

01:24:36.000 It's acceptable to use violence when your daughter embarrasses you or your sister embarrasses you.

01:24:42.000 There's so many killings because they ruin their virtue.

01:24:48.000 So that right there is what prevents any kind of reformation in Islam, which is something we've talked about before.

01:24:55.000 Like, the reason you can't do it is because the religion itself accepts violence to prevent those things.

01:25:02.000 That's not the case with Christianity.

01:25:04.000 Catholicism, it used to be like that, too.

01:25:06.000 Catholicism, like you said about the Cathars earlier, they would stomp out violently any kind of attempted reformation.

01:25:12.000 Just because they exist.

01:25:15.000 Eventually, the Protestantism succeeded.

01:25:17.000 We did.

01:25:17.000 So it could be as such with Islam.

01:25:20.000 We did do it back to them, to be fair.

01:25:22.000 But just because there have been violent Christians doesn't mean the doctrine in Christianity is one that accepts violence.

01:25:30.000 Jesus Christ never said the only time we're permitted to use violence is in self-defense.

01:25:35.000 Which is why you like Spain, right?

01:25:38.000 Remember when he said, sell your cloak and buy a sword?

01:25:40.000 Yes.

01:25:41.000 The Christian Reformation happened because of the printing press, basically, as far as I can tell.

01:25:45.000 That was a large part of what kicked it into high gear.

01:25:47.000 New technology allows new thought.

01:25:49.000 the reason that Christianity could have a reformation is because you could entertain ideas in Christianity that you could not entertain in Islam, right?

01:25:59.000 Like the whole, even, like one of the things that Christianity...

01:26:13.000 If you find the truth, you'll find me.

01:26:15.000 So people were encouraged to look for things that are true, not to say, this can't be true because it doesn't line up with the thing that I expected God to say.

01:26:25.000 The Christian doctrine says, if this is true and it doesn't seem to line up with what Christ said, You misunderstand Christ.

01:26:33.000 You misunderstand because you're the fallible human being.

01:26:36.000 So you don't have that option in Islam.

01:26:41.000 Not Ian.

01:26:42.000 He's not fallible.

01:26:43.000 And going back to what you were saying with the violence, I think it's easy to leave something when you don't feel like the punishment is here now.

01:26:51.000 You can live out the rest of your life and you're never going to feel that punishment of like, oh, I left God behind.

01:26:55.000 I don't go to church anymore.

01:26:56.000 Who cares?

01:26:57.000 But if that punishment is here, like you were talking about, the violence is already here.

01:27:00.000 Like, oh, you're thinking about leaving Islam?

01:27:02.000 Okay, we'll see how it goes for you, buddy.

01:27:04.000 Of course, it's going to be a lot harder to leave, right?

01:27:06.000 But as far as the stuff that they were trying to push on the Palatine, That's actually, in LA, it's kind of like a perfect example where for a couple years we had the Muslim community and the Christians coming together because we were pushing back hard on the woke stuff that was happening.

01:27:24.000 And that's really how the whole… So there's a lot of lawsuits where it names Muslims or Christians, and they're coming together.

01:27:38.000 And LA County is slowly learning, like, wait a minute, these religious bigots, they're starting to unite, and it's not good.

01:27:47.000 It's not good that they're working together.

01:27:48.000 But I actually have a really good Muslim following of local leaders in Los Angeles.

01:27:55.000 It kind of took me by surprise.

01:27:56.000 Because I was like, okay, well, maybe they're just online or whatever.

01:27:59.000 I remember one time I went out to the Inland Empire in California, and me and my cousin went out.

01:28:03.000 I think it was maybe like the 4th of July weekend or something.

01:28:06.000 And we went out.

01:28:08.000 My aunt married a Greek, and so all my cousins are Greek and Italian and stuff.

01:28:12.000 And so we went out to this little Middle Eastern meat market.

01:28:16.000 And so like, you know, you had people from the Middle East there.

01:28:18.000 And as we were checking out, a woman, you know, wearing a hijab and like full cloaked and stuff.

01:28:23.000 And she was a Muslim.

01:28:24.000 She tapped me on the shoulder and she's like, are you in?

01:28:26.000 Anthony Kielbasa.

01:28:26.000 And my cousin was like, There's no way this Muslim woman, in the middle of nowhere, in this market that you've never been to, knows who you are.

01:28:37.000 And she's like, hey, I really appreciate the work you're doing, and thanks for standing with Muslims on the school stuff, because you've been reporting it and all that stuff.

01:28:44.000 And so, yeah, it's interesting in the things that you can find similarities.

01:28:48.000 It's like, hey, let's work together to kind of combat this wokeness.

01:28:52.000 But yeah, they're not for that at all.

01:28:55.000 I've actually DM'd a couple of Muslim audience members.

01:28:58.000 And I'm like, hey, how do you feel about, like, these people out there with, like, Palestinian flags?

01:29:02.000 And now the Palestinian flag is, like, with LGBT colors, and they're like, yeah, no, no, like, no.

01:29:10.000 That's not us.

01:29:11.000 These are like very woke liberals that are attending colleges and they have no idea what they're talking about.

01:29:19.000 And actually, And eventually they got kicked out by CHP officers.

01:29:34.000 But when I went into the encampment and I tried interviewing people, I kept asking, are you Palestinian?

01:29:39.000 Are you Palestinian?

01:29:40.000 Do you have family?

01:29:42.000 I probably asked over a hundred people.

01:29:45.000 There was not anyone there that was from Palestine.

01:29:49.000 Or even knew anyone from Palestine or had family that were in Palestine.

01:29:53.000 I had one guy tell me I'm from Palestine.

01:29:55.000 So I interviewed him.

01:29:56.000 After the interview, he was like, hey, man, I'm high as crap, dude.

01:29:59.000 I'm not Palestinian.

01:30:00.000 I'm Mexican.

01:30:00.000 I'm just like, dude, what the heck?

01:30:03.000 So I didn't even upload the video because I'm like, I couldn't find.

01:30:06.000 But they're all waving Palestinian flags and they're talking about how Palestine this and Palestine that.

01:30:10.000 I couldn't find a single one.

01:30:12.000 It was all like these little anarchists, Antifa.

01:30:15.000 You know, you had the Party of Socialism Liberation out there, PSL, DSA, Democratic Socialists of America.

01:30:21.000 And like all the things are like, are you a Marxist?

01:30:25.000 Well, it's all the myth of intersectionality, this idea that all oppressed people of all kinds somehow have something in common to fight for, and it breaks down the second you're doing anything except class.

01:30:40.000 Yeah, with Los Angeles, it's very unique because, you know, obviously there's like a big melting pot out there.

01:30:45.000 So you have like a big Jewish community in Los Angeles.

01:30:48.000 And so when I was covering this usually at protests, it was being reported like Palestinians versus Jewish students and all that stuff.

01:30:56.000 But I'm just like, dude, there's not a single Palestinian out here.

01:30:59.000 They're waving the flags and they have the flags full of LGBT stuff, but I didn't meet a single one.

01:31:05.000 You know, it was just bizarre.

01:31:06.000 So it's more just leftist than...

01:31:12.000 So you have some people saying like, oh, Mexican nationals are out there.

01:31:16.000 But then I'm recording and I'm just like, dude – Yeah, there are arresting some illegals, but it's the same factions all over again.

01:31:27.000 It's the same, you see, you know, union people out there, you see PSL, DSA, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, Los Angeles chapter, they're out there.

01:31:37.000 You've got people, you know, black people on the megaphone, and they're like, you know, no justice, no peace, no racist police, you know, whatever.

01:31:43.000 And I'm just like, these aren't Mexican nationals.

01:31:46.000 You know?

01:31:46.000 And what's so ironic about everything, if you guys have been to LA, you know that we have a lot of street vendors, right?

01:31:52.000 You know what I'm talking about.

01:31:53.000 They sell hot dogs.

01:31:59.000 Are at these protests trying to sell stuff.

01:32:01.000 They're selling flags.

01:32:03.000 That's why the flags are all creased in LA.

01:32:06.000 Because you have these Mexican street vendors selling it to them.

01:32:09.000 And they're like, hey, these are brand new.

01:32:10.000 You want to go wave around a flag?

01:32:11.000 Here you go.

01:32:12.000 And I remember that a couple months ago I was down there and I was talking to this hot dog vendor.

01:32:19.000 And I'm like, hey man, are you not afraid that DHS is right there?

01:32:23.000 And they're like, nah, I don't care.

01:32:24.000 Those guys are Americans.

01:32:26.000 They get it.

01:32:27.000 They're like, I see a great opportunity.

01:32:29.000 Right, yeah.

01:32:31.000 And so I was just like, man, it was just so bizarre to me.

01:32:34.000 Because it's like, oh, Mexican nationals.

01:32:36.000 And I'm like, dude, it's Antifa.

01:32:37.000 And most of them are like white liberals, you know?

01:32:40.000 The stereotype of the hardworking Mexican is very accurate.

01:32:42.000 They are out there working.

01:32:44.000 That is true.

01:32:44.000 You saw Trump said he's not going to deport.

01:32:48.000 Illegal immigrants that are working in the restaurant industry or in the farm.

01:32:52.000 Yeah, because that's been happening in California.

01:32:54.000 We've been seeing raids at workplaces.

01:32:56.000 I've been thinking that maybe this is a whole other conversation.

01:32:59.000 I know we're going to Super Chat soon, but like, yeah, yeah, trying to extract every illegal aspect of our society all at once will cause a house of cards collapse.

01:33:05.000 So I'm kind of down with like...

01:33:10.000 Maybe the Mexicans are actually our closest ally, like our left arm, whereas the Canadians are our right arm.

01:33:16.000 And they are the United Mexican States.

01:33:18.000 I mean, it's a bunch of states unified.

01:33:20.000 They had a revolution.

01:33:22.000 We had a revolution.

01:33:23.000 They're severely independent.

01:33:26.000 I do have a quick theory on that.

01:33:28.000 Sorry, I didn't mean to go for it.

01:33:29.000 I have a quick theory.

01:33:30.000 So if you guys look up the Bracetto program during World War II, so during World War II, there were so many Americans being deployed overseas that the United States government came up with the Bracetto program.

01:33:40.000 And what it did is it allowed for millions of Mexican nationals and Canadian nationals to come and work the fields and work the industries that used to belong to Americans.

01:33:50.000 And so I thought it was really weird that – We need to make sure that they work in the farms, etc.

01:34:03.000 And I'm just thinking to myself, what are the odds that he does a 180?

01:34:08.000 And now he's saying that we need to keep these illegals working in these industries, right?

01:34:11.000 Like the farms and the crops and crop picking, etc.

01:34:14.000 And then just a day or two later, we're at war with Iran now.

01:34:19.000 So, I don't know.

01:34:21.000 I just kind of like just immediately thought of back in World War II where there were so many Americans fighting off this war that there were like any Mexican that just walked over.

01:34:30.000 He's like, here's your work permit.

01:34:31.000 Here's your work permit.

01:34:32.000 Here's your work.

01:34:32.000 Get out on the field.

01:34:33.000 You know, we need to mass produce.

01:34:35.000 They were put on assembly lines, you know, to create the weapons and send overseas.

01:34:40.000 And so I don't know, there was just like, You can just say some.

01:34:50.000 Would they work for their citizenship back?

01:34:53.000 Yeah.

01:34:53.000 So it was like, I think the program lasted like something like 20 years.

01:34:56.000 And yeah, they were allowed to become U.S. citizens.

01:34:58.000 Some of them were deported.

01:34:59.000 I think, you know, the mainstream media kind of talks about Operation Wetback, where they were deporting.

01:35:05.000 And a lot of those people that they deported were people that came under the work visas.

01:35:09.000 And they said like, hey, we helped mass produce or whatever.

01:35:12.000 Why are you deporting us?

01:35:13.000 But they're like, sorry, got to go back.

01:35:14.000 War's over.

01:35:16.000 But no, I just thought it was very interesting.

01:35:18.000 So who knows?

01:35:19.000 I hope it doesn't escalate to the point where we're sending tens of thousands of troops overseas, but I guess we'll see.

01:35:26.000 It's still my sense that we're not going to end up with a lot of boots on the ground over there.

01:35:29.000 I hope not.

01:35:31.000 You know, I know that it's exceedingly unpopular in the United States.

01:35:35.000 Like, you're not going to get a...

01:35:47.000 One of the things that bothers me about the rhetoric is Trump's like, look, they can't have a nuclear weapon.

01:35:52.000 And I think Netanyahu is also like, Iranians cannot have a nuclear weapon.

01:35:55.000 Well, first of all, they can.

01:35:56.000 Just so we're clear, they can.

01:35:58.000 And if they do, there will be consequences.

01:36:00.000 So talk about that.

01:36:01.000 Acknowledge that they can and tell us what might happen if they do.

01:36:04.000 Rather than try and be like, Daddy said we can't have ice cream.

01:36:08.000 Look, people are done being told what they can and can't do.

01:36:10.000 So step up, be a leader, explain the threat, and tell us how you're going to fix it.

01:36:14.000 Well, the point with the can't is they're saying that they will use force to prevent it.

01:36:21.000 I agree.

01:36:22.000 And if they were clear about that, they're like, we will do...

01:36:27.000 Well, no, it can.

01:36:28.000 I think that's what they're saying.

01:36:29.000 When they're saying can't, I think they're making it clear that they will use force.

01:36:32.000 I think that's what they're trying to communicate.

01:36:34.000 Did you hear Trump say it?

01:36:36.000 It was just with this exasperation, like, we just can't, okay?

01:36:41.000 Dude, we're talking about thermonuclear war.

01:36:43.000 Of course they can.

01:36:45.000 I mean, okay.

01:36:47.000 Anyway, I digress.

01:36:48.000 We're going to go to chats, smash the like button, share the show with literally everyone you know.

01:36:52.000 Maybe you have a friend you haven't seen since college.

01:36:55.000 Maybe he's like Ian.

01:36:56.000 Call him up and say, you should watch this Ian guy.

01:36:58.000 He'd get along with him.

01:36:59.000 He's fun.

01:37:00.000 Yeah.

01:37:01.000 No Uncensored show tonight.

01:37:03.000 It's Friday, but we are going to read your chats, so once again, smash that like button.

01:37:07.000 Let's read what you guys have to say.

01:37:09.000 Shane H. Wilder, always number one, says, Happy Father's Day on Sunday to Tim and soon to be Papa Phil.

01:37:14.000 Cheers.

01:37:14.000 Enjoy it, homies.

01:37:15.000 Also, I'm covering the Texas protests tomorrow, so prayers that Ish doesn't go sideways, please.

01:37:20.000 Have a great weekend.

01:37:21.000 It's going to be raining out here.

01:37:23.000 Good luck, brother.

01:37:24.000 So, we are going to have a fun Father's Day.

01:37:29.000 You know, baby is fat and happy, so that's always good.

01:37:33.000 She's been talking.

01:37:34.000 Oh, nice.

01:37:35.000 What's she saying?

01:37:36.000 Nothing coherent, but we understand what she's saying.

01:37:39.000 Yeah, dude.

01:37:40.000 She's babbling.

01:37:41.000 Oh, that's awesome.

01:37:42.000 The tone.

01:37:42.000 You can discern tone.

01:37:45.000 If somebody were to fake speak, you know, you can tell the emotions.

01:37:50.000 Yeah, the intent is there.

01:37:52.000 It's understood.

01:37:54.000 Yeah.

01:37:55.000 Alright, what do we got?

01:37:57.000 Downgraded Simpleton says, War is death of people, culture, and nation.

01:38:00.000 As the warmongers show themselves, remember who they are.

01:38:03.000 They will be sending your sons and daughters to war.

01:38:05.000 Peace and love.

01:38:06.000 War only feeds the devil.

01:38:08.000 I like how the Romans did it.

01:38:10.000 They had senators lead the armies.

01:38:12.000 Senators and emperors.

01:38:13.000 I would feel a lot more comfortable if they had to be in harm's way.

01:38:16.000 Send Lindsey Graham.

01:38:17.000 Him first.

01:38:18.000 And send Mark Levin and all these people that are saying, this is actually a good thing.

01:38:22.000 Alright, you and your family, you go first.

01:38:25.000 I would love to see, just imagine like a bunch of troops standing on the front line and Lindsey Graham's in front of all of them giving a rousing speech.

01:38:33.000 Yeah.

01:38:33.000 George Washington used to ride along the front line and encourage the troops as he was getting shot at.

01:38:38.000 Yep.

01:38:39.000 Like, what happened to that?

01:38:40.000 They'll be putting everyone on the neural net, and then Lindsey Graham will be speaking in their brain.

01:38:44.000 You got this, you guys.

01:38:45.000 You got this.

01:38:46.000 Haven't you ever seen The Patriot with Mel Gibson?

01:38:48.000 Oh, yeah.

01:38:48.000 When he's talking to Cornwallis, and he's like, yeah.

01:38:52.000 And he's talking to Cornwallis, and he's like, this business of killing officers must stop.

01:38:57.000 And then he's like, so long as your men are killing women and children, I will order my men to kill officers on sight.

01:39:03.000 And he goes, imagine the battlefield with no officers.

01:39:05.000 Chaos.

01:39:07.000 That's why they took him off the battlefield.

01:39:09.000 They were like, let the rabble go at it.

01:39:11.000 The men making decisions have to be preserved.

01:39:15.000 Yep.

01:39:17.000 Indeed.

01:39:19.000 They did not like it when we did that.

01:39:21.000 That's a real thing.

01:39:22.000 Oh, went after officers?

01:39:22.000 Yeah.

01:39:23.000 Because we had rifles.

01:39:24.000 So we could actually shoot at them.

01:39:26.000 Yeah.

01:39:29.000 Was I going to say something?

01:39:30.000 The inhumanity of conflict.

01:39:32.000 Oh my god.

01:39:34.000 Hit the next super chat.

01:39:37.000 Pinochet says, what are the chances this is another Bay of Pigs and Trump will look like he doesn't have control just like JFK had to lie and say he knew and take responsibility?

01:39:45.000 Look up JFK.

01:39:46.000 Defeat is an orphan.

01:39:48.000 Yep.

01:39:50.000 Everybody wants to claim responsibility in the victories, but defeat is an orphan.

01:39:55.000 It's never my fault.

01:39:57.000 Yep.

01:39:59.000 I still think that Israel always has to bypass with us.

01:40:03.000 They have to run intel through us.

01:40:06.000 Because I just truly feel like Israel can't defend itself.

01:40:10.000 And so, like, even if it's going to attack, it's letting us know because I feel like, like, hey, please put your people in position in case they retaliate so big that we need your help.

01:40:20.000 And then that's exactly what happened.

01:40:21.000 Yeah, I think American missiles were defending.

01:40:23.000 Right, yeah.

01:40:24.000 Exactly.

01:40:25.000 So they have to.

01:40:26.000 I just don't think Israel is as tough as people make it out to, like Ben Shapiro.

01:40:32.000 There's, like, that side-by-side, right?

01:40:33.000 Like, a couple years ago, he's like, look, let me tell you, let me tell you.

01:40:37.000 Israel doesn't need America.

01:40:38.000 Israel doesn't need America.

01:40:39.000 And then, like, it goes to today, he's like, here's why America needs to defend Israel.

01:40:43.000 Yeah, Israel doesn't need us.

01:40:45.000 I forgot to say, okay, gang.

01:40:47.000 I stopped listening to him.

01:40:49.000 You know that meme where it's like 2017, me listening to Ben Shapiro, like more libertarian?

01:40:53.000 I actually got into politics because of Ben Shapiro.

01:40:56.000 I used to listen to him every single day and I'm like, man, your debate is great.

01:40:59.000 And now it's like, I can't tell you the last time I listened to Ben Shapiro.

01:41:03.000 Is he doing those college debates still?

01:41:04.000 I don't think so.

01:41:05.000 Is he?

01:41:05.000 I don't know.

01:41:06.000 So Charlie's, here's the secret.

01:41:08.000 The secret is always doing college tours.

01:41:10.000 Charlie is blowing up massively.

01:41:12.000 Charlie Kirk?

01:41:13.000 Probably the biggest conservative personality, and he's doing college tours.

01:41:16.000 It makes you relevant to be on the ground talking to people.

01:41:21.000 And Ben got really big when he was doing that, and all the YouTube videos popped up saying Ben Shapiro destroys liberals with logic and facts.

01:41:28.000 And that was it.

01:41:29.000 He did like a Jubilee thing, I think, a year ago or something.

01:41:32.000 And it was big.

01:41:33.000 Two years ago.

01:41:33.000 It was very big.

01:41:34.000 I don't know how much he's doing that anymore.

01:41:37.000 The Jordan Peterson one was bad.

01:41:39.000 Did you see Jordan Peterson debates 20 Kermit the Frogs?

01:41:42.000 No.

01:41:43.000 Somebody made that video and I watched it and it was fun.

01:41:45.000 That's awesome.

01:41:46.000 And Kermit was like, are you trying to sound like me?

01:41:49.000 Or do you just sound like me?

01:41:50.000 And then he's like, what do you mean believe?

01:41:52.000 Oh my god.

01:41:53.000 I did a bit on that.

01:41:55.000 Do you believe in God?

01:41:56.000 Well, when you ask that question, you gotta define do.

01:41:59.000 You.

01:42:00.000 And I'm just like, holy, dude, just answer the question.

01:42:02.000 What do you mean by do?

01:42:03.000 We did the same thing on our show on Monday.

01:42:05.000 I asked my buddy who does a really good impression.

01:42:07.000 I was like, so what do you think about triangles?

01:42:09.000 And he was like, well, first you've got to describe what a triangle is.

01:42:11.000 What are the metaphysics?

01:42:13.000 All right, how many people, can you define do?

01:42:16.000 Do?

01:42:17.000 Can you?

01:42:17.000 I can.

01:42:17.000 I don't think you can.

01:42:19.000 Do.

01:42:20.000 As in, what do you want to do?

01:42:21.000 Do you believe?

01:42:23.000 Oh.

01:42:24.000 Hmm.

01:42:25.000 Because you said you have to define do.

01:42:27.000 Yeah, that's what he said.

01:42:28.000 So how do you define do in that context?

01:42:31.000 You kick them off your show.

01:42:33.000 Stupid.

01:42:35.000 It's actually interesting because there is just one definition.

01:42:39.000 To do something.

01:42:40.000 Like the act?

01:42:40.000 The act of performing an action.

01:42:42.000 Do.

01:42:42.000 Oh.

01:42:43.000 So when he says do you believe, it's saying are you taking action to yourself to believe this thing?

01:42:51.000 Like is there action among you to believe?

01:42:53.000 That's what it means.

01:42:54.000 I saw his debate with those 20 liberals or the atheists were so terrible because they're like, well, you're a Christian, right?

01:43:00.000 And he's like, well, that's what you're saying.

01:43:02.000 Well, can you define Christian?

01:43:06.000 Like, well, let's break that down.

01:43:07.000 Hold on here a second.

01:43:09.000 Now, we can talk about this for an hour.

01:43:10.000 Let's break that sentence down.

01:43:11.000 I mean, it would have helped if they just, you know, like picked a Christian.

01:43:15.000 Right.

01:43:15.000 That's a great point.

01:43:17.000 Wes Huff, Mike Jones.

01:43:19.000 Yeah.

01:43:20.000 You should actually believe the philosophy that you're defending in order to defend it properly.

01:43:28.000 To me, it just kind of sounded like when they denied Christ three times, like you would deny me three times.

01:43:35.000 He was asked, like, you're a Christian, right?

01:43:37.000 I think, I don't know, I've seen reports that he himself has claimed himself as a Christian.

01:43:43.000 You know?

01:43:44.000 And so it's like, why not just say it?

01:43:45.000 Just say, yes, I am a Christian, but I'm still learning.

01:43:47.000 I don't think he is a Christian.

01:43:49.000 There's an article where he quotes him and he says, I am a Christian.

01:43:53.000 I never claimed that.

01:43:54.000 I think that's his semantics, because there's one thing to believe the things, right?

01:44:00.000 And then he gets into the semantics of what does the word believe mean?

01:44:03.000 Yeah, of course.

01:44:04.000 But he says that to act in a way is to believe, right?

01:44:10.000 What do you mean by act?

01:44:11.000 Well, to behave in the world.

01:44:13.000 It's just so pedantic.

01:44:15.000 It's like, define the smallest word of your sentence, and it's like, ugh.

01:44:22.000 I know.

01:44:22.000 Honestly, I would have loved to see Jay Dyer on that.

01:44:24.000 After just getting roasted myself, I would love to see him do that exact same thing.

01:44:28.000 You know what I think?

01:44:29.000 I think for...

01:44:36.000 And so if you're a teenager and you're watching Ben Shapiro say, you know, actually you're wrong about this, the Fifth Ecumenical Council, and then like, you know, whatever.

01:44:44.000 You're going like, oh wow, this guy's smart.

01:44:46.000 Then you get older and you say, I want someone to do something about it.

01:44:49.000 And Ben's still not changed from who he is.

01:44:51.000 Right, yeah.

01:44:52.000 He's still the same person.

01:44:53.000 Right, so Ben's still going to make the similar arguments and you're like, and I don't mean to single out Ben, but literally anybody, me or otherwise.

01:45:00.000 A young person grew up on that saying, okay, when is anyone going to do anything about it?

01:45:04.000 And you're only just getting a bunch of people who keep making the same argument.

01:45:08.000 The younger generation is going to be more extreme.

01:45:10.000 Yeah, Charlie...

01:45:11.000 Banging hammers.

01:45:12.000 Charlie Kirk, I think, is a good example because I didn't really care for him at the very beginning, but he's kind of started...

01:45:23.000 Which I'm pretty, like, adamant about that.

01:45:24.000 Like, America first, kind of America only, really.

01:45:27.000 You know, like, let's put our citizens here first.

01:45:29.000 We've got so many people here, let's just worry about us.

01:45:32.000 And he's come around, you know?

01:45:33.000 And I think it was because of, you know, movements within the Turning Point USA crowd that just kind of like, dude, we need to stop.

01:45:43.000 like remember when I think he was doing like a cultural thing with Rob Smith and remember like the Catholics came up to Charlie Kirk and saying like how does how does promoting like homosexuality help us win the culture wars and they just kept showing up they just kept showing up these guys in suits right they just kept showing up and they had like the rosaries and they just kept asking them over and over again it got to the point where like where's Rob Smith now he's not like I haven't seen him in anything Turning Point USA you know

01:46:15.000 We got Kieran the Meatman.

01:46:16.000 He says, Shed it to Tate.

01:46:17.000 He was the best fill-in yet.

01:46:19.000 Knowledgeable and good presence, but could use some experience, confidence, and maybe some cast brew.

01:46:23.000 Yeah, I woke up with a sinus infection.

01:46:26.000 And I was like, I'm not getting up.

01:46:30.000 I stayed in bed.

01:46:31.000 I watched every episode of Andor.

01:46:32.000 And I hate Star Wars, but a bunch of people were saying it was good, so I figured I'd watch it, and it's really annoyingly woke.

01:46:40.000 The first season's good.

01:46:42.000 No, I thought the first season was bad.

01:46:46.000 What?

01:46:47.000 They were just like, I guess he goes to jail, and then he gets mad at the Empire, and it's like, okay.

01:46:51.000 And then he was like, while the world is going on, it's been like a day, and he's already in the prison system, and then like escapes it a day later.

01:46:58.000 Whatever.

01:46:59.000 Second season's better.

01:47:01.000 A lot better.

01:47:01.000 And there's like...

01:47:03.000 You know what I can't stand about every single show ever right now is they got to put...

01:47:09.000 Of course they do.

01:47:10.000 Why?

01:47:12.000 I don't know why they do it, but they do it!

01:47:14.000 Star Wars was so good about it, too.

01:47:15.000 There was, like, even in the original trilogy, there's such a bare-bones romantic subplot.

01:47:21.000 You're right.

01:47:21.000 Because that's not what it's about.

01:47:23.000 I was talking about Han and Leia.

01:47:25.000 Oh.

01:47:27.000 It's a love triangle.

01:47:29.000 But it was there.

01:47:30.000 There was the obligatory love...

01:47:33.000 triangle and everything.

01:47:34.000 Star Wars has always been awful.

01:47:35.000 The original ones are okay, but the fact that Luke kissed Leia...

01:47:40.000 She wasn't his sister until the second episode.

01:47:42.000 Exactly.

01:47:42.000 They didn't write it out.

01:47:44.000 And Darth wasn't his father.

01:47:45.000 I love George Lucas for that.

01:47:47.000 Absolutely based.

01:47:48.000 Start a trilogy.

01:47:48.000 Have no idea where it's going to end.

01:47:51.000 She wrote a complete package, and then it was so successful, he's like, I better write a sequel.

01:47:56.000 Yeah, exactly.

01:47:57.000 Well, the sequel, the original sequels were going to, it was supposed to be...

01:48:02.000 It's been a while since I was reading it.

01:48:04.000 But after Return of the Jedi, what George Lucas actually wrote for the nine treatments, like the basically elevator pitches, was that the next series was they cloned Luke and Leia.

01:48:15.000 I think they cloned either Luke and Anakin, but they made an army of Jedi clones.

01:48:20.000 I think it was Luke and Leia because she's also...

01:48:27.000 And then somehow the Emperor returned.

01:48:29.000 And we were like, what?

01:48:31.000 So cheap.

01:48:31.000 Dude, The Last Jedi is the worst film I've ever seen.

01:48:36.000 I wanted to walk out of the theater.

01:48:38.000 Plasma arcing in space.

01:48:40.000 And then Rian Johnson was like, I subverted expectations.

01:48:44.000 Like, yeah, with being bad.

01:48:46.000 Because we didn't expect Star Wars to be bad.

01:48:47.000 It was really not good.

01:48:49.000 It was awful.

01:48:50.000 Absolutely awful.

01:48:50.000 They just killed Snoke for no reason.

01:48:52.000 I was wondering if he'd ever actually seen a Star Wars movie by the end of it.

01:48:55.000 I don't think he did.

01:48:56.000 Yeah.

01:48:57.000 Which is so weird, because Knives Out's a decent movie.

01:49:00.000 Like, it's a fun movie.

01:49:01.000 And he's done some good TV directing.

01:49:03.000 He just sucks at Star Wars, apparently.

01:49:05.000 What did he do?

01:49:05.000 He did Looper?

01:49:07.000 Is that what it was?

01:49:08.000 I think so.

01:49:08.000 I think he also directed a couple episodes of Breaking Bad.

01:49:11.000 Looper was interesting.

01:49:13.000 That was G. Gordon-Levitt.

01:49:15.000 Was he in that?

01:49:16.000 Yeah.

01:49:16.000 And Bruce Willis?

01:49:18.000 G. Gordon-Levitt?

01:49:18.000 Yeah, G. Gordon-Levitt.

01:49:20.000 I'm thinking of G. Edward Griffin, who wrote The Creature from Jekyll Island.

01:49:24.000 What's up, G. Everett?

01:49:25.000 What was the one I was thinking of, Hayden Christensen?

01:49:27.000 Oh, Jumper.

01:49:28.000 Yeah.

01:49:29.000 Yeah.

01:49:30.000 I was mixing those up.

01:49:31.000 Let's go.

01:49:32.000 What do we got here?

01:49:33.000 Duke says, I voted DJT all three times.

01:49:36.000 Shame on him for involving us.

01:49:37.000 Limited though it is, the only redemption is for Trump to say not another dime of our tax dollars crosses the border.

01:49:43.000 This is a no-brainer.

01:49:44.000 Trump's pro-Israel.

01:49:46.000 I wouldn't be surprised if he puts boots on the ground.

01:49:48.000 I wouldn't be surprised.

01:49:49.000 My prediction based on my life is that And then the MAGA base is going to be like, we have to do it.

01:50:03.000 And there's going to be people coming on this show and they're going to be debating like, you think that if a nation attacks our people directly that we shouldn't intervene and stop them from doing it?

01:50:13.000 Oh, dare you!

01:50:14.000 That's going to be the debate.

01:50:15.000 Yeah.

01:50:19.000 Everyone's like, of course, we need to do a thing.

01:50:20.000 And then the next day he's like, we need to stop doing a thing.

01:50:22.000 They're like, we need to stop doing the thing.

01:50:23.000 Oh, the amnesty thing.

01:50:24.000 Trump's for amnesty now.

01:50:25.000 And it's just like, Trump came out and he was like, you know, our farmers are being hurt really badly by this.

01:50:31.000 They got workers.

01:50:31.000 They're good people.

01:50:32.000 They've been here for 25 years.

01:50:34.000 They're not criminals.

01:50:35.000 We're going to help them out.

01:50:36.000 And then I'm like, oh, there he goes.

01:50:38.000 Trump's for amnesty, for illegals.

01:50:39.000 And a bunch of MAGA personalities were like, Trump's right about this, actually.

01:50:43.000 We don't want to be deporting.

01:50:44.000 Get out of here.

01:50:45.000 Jeez.

01:50:46.000 Two things can be true at once.

01:50:47.000 The left can be utterly insane about Trump, and Trump's base can also be a cult.

01:50:52.000 Trump has a cult, but the Trump base is not.

01:50:55.000 And that's what's dangerous.

01:50:55.000 Maybe not the entire base, but there's definitely a cult of personality there.

01:50:58.000 Trump has a lot of—there's a decent percentage of the people who voted for Trump that are—Trump can do no wrong.

01:51:04.000 But what's dangerous for Trump is that the coalition that elects him is a disparate group.

01:51:09.000 I mean, if it weren't for the Libertarians voting for Trump, I don't know that Trump would have won.

01:51:14.000 Yeah.

01:51:14.000 Because he won by only, like, a couple percentage points.

01:51:17.000 Yeah.

01:51:17.000 To be fair, I think the Libertarians only got, like, one anyway.

01:51:19.000 But it's probably because— Chase Oliver got, like, 0.05.

01:51:22.000 But then what happened to the other 2.5%?

01:51:24.000 You went to Trump, yeah.

01:51:25.000 Yeah, I'm with you.

01:51:27.000 So bombing Israel, he's not running for re-election, so what does he care, you know?

01:51:30.000 Mm-hmm.

01:51:30.000 Yeah.

01:51:31.000 But I am not for amnesty.

01:51:33.000 I don't care if you're a farmer who's been here for 20 years.

01:51:35.000 And Trump is, because Trump is wrong.

01:51:39.000 Okay.

01:51:40.000 We could have had Ron Paul.

01:51:42.000 We could have.

01:51:43.000 Everything could have been better.

01:51:44.000 I'm pretty sure Ron Paul's for open borders.

01:51:46.000 I think he was, I don't know if he was totally, he was definitely for a more porous border.

01:51:51.000 Yep.

01:51:51.000 I know, isn't that like the Libertarian Party stance is open borders?

01:51:54.000 They came out with like a statement.

01:51:55.000 Big L Libertarian Party, I think, yes, is open borders.

01:51:58.000 Most Libertarians you talk to will not be in favor of totally.

01:52:02.000 The Big L Libertarians will say those are not real Libertarians.

01:52:04.000 Well, any Libertarian will, I'll look at Phil and call him not a real Libertarian, and he'll look at me and call me not a real Libertarian.

01:52:10.000 Yes.

01:52:10.000 Any monarchy.

01:52:11.000 All right.

01:52:12.000 Rick Provost says, a guy named Iran has been hitting me with a bat.

01:52:14.000 The bat is named Hamas.

01:52:16.000 The idea that the bat is hitting me and not the guy swinging it is silly.

01:52:19.000 I guess a better way to put it is a guy named Iran keeps giving baseball bats to this guy named Hamas who keeps smashing up my house and beating my family.

01:52:29.000 And so I was finally like, I saw the guy, Iran, loading up some rifles and I was like, nah, we're not having this.

01:52:36.000 You're saying you believe that?

01:52:38.000 No, no, I'm saying his analogy.

01:52:39.000 Oh, okay, gotcha.

01:52:40.000 You could be like, I invited an axe murderer named Iran over.

01:52:43.000 He's going to be staying here for 45 years.

01:52:45.000 Why is the axe murderer attacking?

01:52:48.000 And it's like, well, because you invited him into your freaking house.

01:52:51.000 Who invited Iran into Iran?

01:52:52.000 Whoever oversaw that revolution in 79. No, we invited a democratically elected leader into the house, and then the Muslims said no to that.

01:53:02.000 On paper.

01:53:03.000 Well, on paper, they elected the guy.

01:53:05.000 Do you think the CIA would have stopped if they, with what they...

01:53:08.000 I think the CIA could have stopped the Islamic Revolution.

01:53:13.000 That's true, too.

01:53:14.000 Which makes my argument fallible.

01:53:16.000 And I love you?

01:53:17.000 Yes.

01:53:18.000 Money, please.

01:53:19.000 I know that I love you.

01:53:21.000 They're intelligent.

01:53:22.000 It's in the name.

01:53:24.000 Yeah.

01:53:25.000 Satoshi Nakamoto means Central Intelligence Base or something like that.

01:53:31.000 Freakish.

01:53:32.000 Yeah.

01:53:33.000 You know, tell me about this Iranian revolution thing, because for a while I said they had the Shah.

01:53:38.000 Who was it before the Shah?

01:53:39.000 No, that was...

01:53:42.000 No, the Shah was the monarch of Iran.

01:53:45.000 King.

01:53:45.000 And then we funded a color revolution that deposed him.

01:53:50.000 And then for a little short while, there was a democratically elected pro-Western leader who was basically a puppet of the UK and the United States.

01:53:59.000 And then the radical Islamists recognized that this was their opportunity.

01:54:05.000 And they swept in and just completely converted the entire country to a very, very, very fundamentalist version of Islam.

01:54:14.000 In the 1970s, if you look at pictures from Iran before the revolution, you've got women wearing miniskirts, you have cars that look like American cars, people playing music in the streets.

01:54:25.000 No hijab.

01:54:25.000 you basically cannot differentiate Iran from Italy in these pictures.

01:54:29.000 And then by the end, by the eighties, it is the, The king wouldn't play ball with the liberal economic order?

01:54:37.000 No, the king was gone.

01:54:38.000 But before we overthrew the king, he just wouldn't, Sorry, Anthony.

01:54:46.000 No, I was going to say, Iran needs to live in modern-day Israel.

01:54:49.000 Have gay parades all the time.

01:54:50.000 Yeah, this is serious.

01:54:52.000 This is before the revolution, man.

01:54:54.000 CIA stick their nose in there and disrupt it.

01:54:56.000 Obviously, it was a kingdom, and I'm not supporting monarchy as a governmental style.

01:55:00.000 Totally indistinguishable from...

01:55:04.000 Also, Iranians are white people.

01:55:06.000 Yeah, pretty much.

01:55:08.000 Just an aside, a lot of people don't realize that.

01:55:10.000 Persians.

01:55:13.000 What do you mean by white?

01:55:14.000 I mean, they're Indo-Aryan.

01:55:16.000 Peach.

01:55:18.000 Indo-Aryan.

01:55:19.000 Indo-Aryan, Indo-European.

01:55:20.000 Yeah.

01:55:21.000 Same stock.

01:55:21.000 Came out of the Iran step.

01:55:23.000 Look at this one.

01:55:24.000 Oh, Iran.

01:55:26.000 My people.

01:55:27.000 Iran had some baddies, not gonna lie.

01:55:30.000 They still do.

01:55:31.000 They're just covered up.

01:55:33.000 Iran, show us your beauty.

01:55:36.000 The world wants it now.

01:55:36.000 Iran, show me your toes.

01:55:39.000 Oh, God.

01:55:40.000 Let's commiserate.

01:55:41.000 After seeing all this, I'm now in favor of invading and overthrowing Iran.

01:55:45.000 Baddies gotta get let go.

01:55:46.000 I got him.

01:55:47.000 I got Tim to support invading Iran.

01:55:49.000 Beautiful part of the world.

01:55:52.000 I was saying this when they were like, Iran's got a nuclear weapon.

01:55:55.000 I said, they might as well just be saying Iran's funding illegal immigration because that's a substantially more popular issue in the United States.

01:56:01.000 Coming out being like, they're going to get a nuke!

01:56:03.000 People in America are like, we don't care.

01:56:04.000 India and Pakistan have nukes.

01:56:05.000 We don't care.

01:56:07.000 Trump should have came out and said, are those illegal immigrants Iran, actually?

01:56:11.000 Everyone would have been like, what?

01:56:13.000 But would the option be invade Iran?

01:56:18.000 If we blamed it on Iran, what would we do to Iran because of it?

01:56:21.000 Nothing.

01:56:22.000 Leave Iran alone.

01:56:23.000 Just let them be.

01:56:24.000 We want nothing to do with it.

01:56:26.000 Well, no, I'm saying hypothetically, if Iran was the reason that we had so many illegal immigrants, how do we punish Iran?

01:56:32.000 Do we just send all the illegal immigrants back?

01:56:34.000 We do what we're doing in Mexico.

01:56:35.000 Just allow them to just keep sending everything in, whatever they want.

01:56:38.000 Drugs, as much as they want.

01:56:40.000 That's terrible.

01:56:41.000 Alright, let's grab another chair.

01:56:42.000 We got Dishwasher Safe Catheter says, In keeping with the Timcast tradition, last night we welcomed our fifth child into the world, Joshua Lucas.

01:56:51.000 We only keep having babies so we can own the libs.

01:56:53.000 Yeah, having babies to own the libs.

01:56:55.000 Joshua Lucas.

01:56:56.000 The only reason we're having babies.

01:56:58.000 That's what I do to all my liberal friends when they're sending me messages about whatever stupid politics they're spying with.

01:57:03.000 Like, well, I have a child.

01:57:05.000 Send pictures of your daughter.

01:57:07.000 I just sent a picture of my daughter.

01:57:09.000 I'm sorry.

01:57:10.000 She will outlast you both.

01:57:12.000 She will outlast us both.

01:57:13.000 You said something earlier where, like, you said something about Gen Z being more radical or, like, more extreme.

01:57:17.000 I think you said something more conservative.

01:57:19.000 Not more conservative.

01:57:21.000 They are becoming more conservative, but the younger generation is more likely to call for action, violence or otherwise.

01:57:28.000 Interesting.

01:57:29.000 Yep.

01:57:30.000 So the point being, when Ben Shapiro says, Obviously, we need to stop doing this thing or that thing and ban this thing.

01:57:37.000 They're going, okay, I heard you, so who's going to get the hammer and go and do it?

01:57:42.000 Yeah.

01:57:43.000 And so that's what they want to hear.

01:57:44.000 No, I know.

01:57:45.000 My son, we live in L.A. County, and they've gone to public education, so they got to see a lot of stupid stuff.

01:57:50.000 And obviously, as Christians, we teach them.

01:57:53.000 Like, hey, we're not for this.

01:57:54.000 We don't wave these flags.

01:57:55.000 We don't believe this philosophy.

01:57:57.000 We're not into the LGBT stuff, obviously.

01:58:00.000 But yeah, there was a lot of instances that I felt, maybe not radicalized them, but I think it kind of opened his eyes to the things that were happening.

01:58:08.000 Like, hey, Dad, we're starting to see furries at school.

01:58:13.000 And I'm like, what the hell is a furry?

01:58:15.000 And so he actually had to teach me what a furry was because I'm like, dude, I am so sorry.

01:58:19.000 And so he's like, yeah, there's these guys that are showing up to school and this and that.

01:58:23.000 And how do you feel about that?

01:58:24.000 He's like, oh, I've got a group chat.

01:58:25.000 And we all just make fun of them and we take pictures and this and that.

01:58:28.000 I'm like, look, man, it's good that you have a group chat or whatever your guys.

01:58:32.000 But I try to teach him.

01:58:34.000 I'm like, look, we don't agree with it, but also don't let me get a call from school saying you're bullying the furry.

01:58:40.000 You know what I mean?

01:58:41.000 But hold on.

01:58:41.000 To be fair, the fursuit, it protects you.

01:58:44.000 So if I was wearing one of those mascot costumes and you hit me in the face, I wouldn't notice.

01:58:49.000 So before they killed Trevor Moore, he put out a video, a song called Bullies, and it was about how we maybe went too far and we need them back.

01:58:59.000 And as somebody who was mercilessly bullied in middle school, I am all for it.

01:59:04.000 I am a better person for it.

01:59:06.000 I would be so weird if somebody had not been there to correct my behavior.

01:59:09.000 We talked about this earlier.

01:59:11.000 We were hanging out talking about how we need bullies.

01:59:13.000 And the clarification is, bullies that mercilessly beat and steal, no, no, no, no, I'm not talking about that.

01:59:19.000 No.

01:59:20.000 But, like, if there's a kid who's deviating in a way that is very, very bad for them, and then someone insults them for that, it's a correcting behavior that exists for a reason.

01:59:30.000 The problem is, when society goes insane, and you're the only sane one, you'll look crazy and you'll get bullied by all the insane people.

01:59:37.000 That's what's currently happening.

01:59:39.000 You know what?

01:59:39.000 I've actually got a perfect exam for you, Tim.

01:59:42.000 So you were talking about how these people are asking themselves, okay, I hear the problem, but what's going to happen?

01:59:46.000 This actually happened.

01:59:47.000 This is a true story.

01:59:47.000 So my son came home one day and he told me, Dad, they just put tampon dispensers in the male bathrooms.

01:59:53.000 Insane.

01:59:53.000 And I'm like, okay, well, what's going on?

01:59:56.000 He's like, well, nothing.

01:59:57.000 It's just everyone's making a fuss about it.

01:59:58.000 There's boys that are going in there.

02:00:00.000 Did you have to pay for the tampons?

02:00:02.000 No, they were just free.

02:00:03.000 Dude, that'd be the greatest thing.

02:00:04.000 Someone would take all of them instantly.

02:00:07.000 Finish your story.

02:00:08.000 No, no, yeah.

02:00:09.000 So here's what happened.

02:00:09.000 So before they were even installed, parents were going to the school board and saying, this is egregious, this is stupid, why are we doing this?

02:00:17.000 You're going to be confusing and this is woke ideology, whatever.

02:00:21.000 So the school board method just didn't work because the school board ended up voting in favor of it.

02:00:26.000 Then it happened.

02:00:26.000 So the next day, he's like, hey, Dad, so someone went in there and they destroyed the tampon dispenser.

02:00:35.000 And it kind of like, it just reminded me right now, it's like, the parents, we tried the democratic way.

02:00:42.000 We went to the school board and we said, we want these things out.

02:00:45.000 The school board ruled, nope, we're doing it in favor.

02:00:47.000 So then every single day they were installing a brand new tampon.

02:00:51.000 Every single day.

02:00:52.000 Boys were getting in there, and they were kicking the tampon dispenser to curve it so that you couldn't dispense.

02:00:58.000 No!

02:00:59.000 No, no, no!

02:00:59.000 What are they doing?

02:01:00.000 After a week and a half, they got rid of the tampon dispenser.

02:01:03.000 No, no, no, no!

02:01:04.000 Boys!

02:01:04.000 Oh, man.

02:01:05.000 I was a teenager, and I was driving in a car with my friends.

02:01:08.000 We were going skating.

02:01:09.000 And one of our friends had gotten, like, hit a tampon from his girlfriend that was, like, in the car or something.

02:01:13.000 I don't like where the story's going.

02:01:14.000 So he stuck it in a water bottle.

02:01:16.000 And then it expanded, and then he whipped it out the window, and it splattered on some other person's windshield, and we were all laughing.

02:01:22.000 Don't do that.

02:01:23.000 That's really, really bad.

02:01:24.000 Why would you do that?

02:01:25.000 Because a bunch of 16-year-old boys are acting up, man.

02:01:27.000 It's not a good thing to do.

02:01:28.000 That could have been really dangerous.

02:01:29.000 Okay.

02:01:30.000 Don't do my point is.

02:01:39.000 Yeah, they'd be on the walls.

02:01:40.000 Yeah, they'd be in the corners.

02:01:41.000 Well, they did stuff.

02:01:43.000 Get the little string and you swing it.

02:01:44.000 They did stuff the toilets and clogged the toilets.

02:01:47.000 Yeah.

02:01:47.000 And so I was telling my son, I'm like, I better not get a phone call.

02:01:52.000 You know, that you have been partaking like, Dad, I swear it's not me.

02:01:55.000 I just watch him do it.

02:01:56.000 And I'm just like, dude, come on!

02:01:57.000 Like, what is going on here?

02:01:59.000 But no, you're like, what are you doing?

02:02:00.000 You're supposed to film it while cheering him on.

02:02:01.000 Put it on a TikTok.

02:02:02.000 No, it was just insane.

02:02:03.000 I was just like, man, I mean, look, the parents tried it the Democratic way.

02:02:07.000 We're like, all right, well, you know, I guess we got dispensers now.

02:02:09.000 And the boys were like, we're not having any of that.

02:02:12.000 There will be no tampon dispensers.

02:02:13.000 All right, my friends, make sure you smash that like button.
