00:08:43.000And now, let's get into all of the top headlines of the week, guys, because there's a lot going on.
00:08:49.000And I want to start with the worldview of the current Democrat Party and their cabal of Democratic Socialists, which basically means Communists.
00:09:01.000Once you understand the worldview, every scam, every fraud, every nonsense that we've covered, you know, everyone that we've covered, frankly, on this show since its inception, afterwards totally makes sense.
00:09:17.000Last night, my father said something about the Democrat Party that basically sums up where they are right now.
00:11:23.000Because when the government becomes a machine that takes from normal citizens, gives to aligned activists who don't actually build anything or actually help at all, and then protects criminals, opens borders, funds activists, and punishes anyone who questions it, that's not compassion or democratic.
00:12:14.000What I've realized is just how deeply.
00:12:17.000Unjust the very concept of deportation is, right?
00:12:20.000The idea that, one, the idea that we should deport anybody is just inherently cruel.
00:12:26.000But then the notion on top of that, that we have a criminal system, an imperfect system, one that we can criticize, right?
00:12:33.000But one that exists, and yet we subject people to an additional system of punishment on the basis of where they were born, right?
00:12:41.000Because people go through the criminal system, then they are, many of them go about their lives, try to rebuild their lives.
00:12:47.000And then are picked up again, re detained in an ICE detention center, which is often also just a prison, and then deported, which is one of the most cruel forms of punishment when you think about the fact that you're ripping somebody from everything they know with nothing but the clothes that they have on their back and putting them in a country that they're entirely unfamiliar with.
00:13:53.000They did what they could to get elected and they tried behind the scenes.
00:13:57.000Now, the thought leaders of the Democrat Party, the people who are winning these elections, they're just saying the quiet parts out loud for the first time probably ever.
00:14:09.000MSDNC asked whether she was a communist.
00:14:13.000Whether she was a communist, just right out there.
00:14:15.000And here's how she responded You're going to appear in all sorts of people's ads, all sorts of Republicans' ads, to say, this is what you're going to get if you vote for the Democrats, a communist.
00:14:25.000You know, I think that is, that framing is one that I've been very proud to be able to say I don't respond to, one in which I have been very intentional to say I won't be reactive.
00:14:38.000We are presenting a vision of what we're fighting for.
00:14:42.000And I think for far too long, we have had politics that is reactive to what Republicans are doing.
00:14:48.000What we need is Democrats who are actually going to present a positive vision, one that sets the tone for what we should be talking about.
00:14:55.000Which is the issue of affordability, which is the issue of how our budgets are moral documents.
00:15:00.000If we say that we want to invest in working people in this country, then we need to do that and our budgets need to reflect that.
00:15:06.000If we say that we value immigration and immigration justice, we need to make sure that that is also reflective in our policy.
00:15:13.000And so I'm very proud of a campaign that we built that centers those ideals, that centers those values and that vision for what we need as a community.
00:15:23.000And that's how I'll continue to move forward in Congress.
00:15:27.000And I think That for far too long, this reactive conversation of what we should be afraid of has prevented us from being able to have a politics of hope and a politics of life that Democrats can actually identify with.
00:15:40.000When the majority of the Democratic base has been seeking for the Democrats.
00:15:45.000Yeah, she doesn't respond to that framing, but it's exactly what it is.
00:15:50.000And this isn't an isolated fringe politician, guys.
00:15:56.000This is a mainstream person in the Democrat Party at this point.
00:15:59.000Just look at Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnston, who isn't as concerned about violence in his city, but he is worried about how the city continues to suffer from the legacy of slavery.
00:16:14.000Turn to another important part of this work.
00:16:17.000Two years ago, I signed an executive order establishing a task force to shine a light on the harm that slavery and racist policies have caused and continue to cause, particularly the harm that they've caused to black Chicagoans.
00:16:34.000While more importantly, identifying pathways towards repair, opportunity, and investment.
00:16:40.000And by the way, the people waiting on the other side of the border hear this insanity and they act accordingly.
00:19:56.000And it's bigger than one case because it goes directly to the heart of the scam.
00:20:02.000And by the way, that's why my father is pushing the Save America Act because this is all connected borders, voting, citizenship, welfare benefits, public money.
00:20:16.000If you don't define who the country is for, the left will define it for you.
00:20:22.000And their definition is always the same.
00:22:26.000Photo ID, proof of citizenship, no mail in chaos.
00:22:32.000This is the stuff that I spoke about with Bernie Moreno of Ohio, the senator there, just on Monday.
00:22:38.000These are things that happen all over the world.
00:22:39.000That happened in Colombia in the election this last week.
00:22:41.000And miraculously, once they got rid of the billions that USAID was funding to push left wing BS in those countries, They got conservative wins.
00:23:16.000It's an overwhelming issue, even on the Democrat side.
00:23:20.000The only reason Washington acts like these are controversial things is because the Democrat machine and some D.C. Republicans refuse to use any common sense.
00:23:31.000The Democrats have taken advantage of forever, and some of those weak Republicans probably get a tiny piece of the action.
00:23:37.000And so it's just like, oh, well, they get the disproportionate piece of the action, but I guess if they're going to give us a little bit of it, we'll keep voting for this BS or preventing a vote on something as significant as this, again, that all of the people want.
00:23:50.000Because the same swamp that wants no border, no deportation, no citizenship line, and no election verification also wants you to stop asking where all the money went and where to find it.
00:24:06.000Whether it's daycare centers, whether it's hospice centers, Medicare scams, you name it.
00:24:12.000They don't want to know where the fraud came from.
00:24:47.000If a hospital or a clinic serves a lot of low income or vulnerable patients, it can buy certain outpatient drugs from manufacturers at a steep discount.
00:24:57.000Then that provider can still bill Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, whoever, at the normal reimbursement rate.
00:25:06.000The savings, you know, the spread, the delta, is supposed to help that provider stretch scarce resources and keep the doors open and expand care for people who actually need it.
00:25:21.000There are a million transparency problems here.
00:25:24.000Patients do not always see the discount directly.
00:25:27.000Hospitals and clinics do not always clearly account for where the savings and revenue go.
00:25:32.000And a huge amount of this now runs through contract pharmacies, third party administrators, billing systems, fees, and a bunch of middlemen.
00:25:42.000When you create a huge pot of money, give powerful hospitals and clinics access to it, let them run it through a bunch of middlemen, and don't require real transparency on where every dollar goes, you don't just create a health care problem, you create a fraud problem.
00:26:53.000Look at the way big healthcare nonprofits and hospital systems become left wing political actors campaign money, ballot fights, lobbying, government grants, public programs, 340B money, and all of it starts blending together.
00:27:09.000And then they tell you it's healthcare.
00:27:12.000But in reality, there's built in kickbacks for everyone who gets to touch it along the way.
00:27:19.000It's just another way for politically connected health systems to print money while Democrats get the political upside.
00:27:26.000Is the 340B program helping poor patients afford medicine?
00:27:30.000Or is it freeing up money inside activist health systems to push ideological medicine, gender activism, and political advocacy that taxpayers never voted to fund?
00:27:45.000Unfortunately, guys, I think we all know the answer.
00:27:53.000All working together to get rich off of you taxpayers while fueling the left wing woke fraud machine.
00:28:01.000And while we're on public money getting routed through respectable sounding institutions, let's talk a bit more about USAID because this story is absolutely unbelievable.
00:28:13.000New reporting shows that Anwar al Wallaki, an American citizen who later became a high ranking figure in Al Qaeda, received US taxpayer funded.
00:28:49.000He was able to get taxpayer funded college after claiming he was born in Yemen, even though he was actually born in Las Cruces, New Mexico.
00:29:03.000The story isn't that some bureaucrat in 1990 should have known that Al Wallaki would become an Al Qaeda terrorist, although, to be honest, I'm sure there were probably signs.
00:29:15.000The story is actually worse in a different way.
00:29:18.000The system was so sloppy, so easy to game, that a guy born in America could claim foreign birth and get U.S. taxpayer support through a State Department and USAID pipeline.
00:29:32.000And why were we benefiting foreigners over Americans to begin with, you might ask?
00:30:58.000And speaking of which, remember the Eco Health Alliance and the Wuhan Lab?
00:31:03.000And if you've watched the show, you know where this story is going.
00:31:07.000The USAID's PREDICT program, a virus research program started in 2009, partnered with EcoHealth Alliance.
00:31:16.000The program trained people, identified viruses, and supported lab and surveillance networks around the world, including the Wuhan Institute of Virology.
00:35:07.000So, if you've been talking in there, I apologize.
00:35:09.000I've probably seen some of the comments while we're playing some of the video clips, but I probably missed a lot of that.
00:35:18.000Why do we have so many doctors with fake degrees?
00:35:21.000I don't know if we have a lot of doctors with fake degrees, but I think you have a lot of people that probably shouldn't have been doctors to begin with because they were let in for checking a bunch of boxes rather than their.
00:35:39.000Dominion, you know, the voting machines, they just dropped their lawsuit against Mike Lindell.
00:35:46.000That's interesting, where they're trying to say he was lying about all the things that he was saying about the voting machines, which is probably interesting, because if they had such a rock solid case, you'd think they'd go through with it, unless, I don't know, maybe Mike Lindell was right about a bunch of those things.
00:36:04.000I imagine he got a lot of it right because I was there and I saw a lot of these things.
00:36:08.000And as a sentient being with a brain and an IQ above three, you start saying, I don't know, this doesn't make sense.
00:36:16.000You know, whether it was Joe Biden not doing so well in the election in 2020, and all of a sudden, magically, just out of nowhere, at 2 30 in the morning, everything has to stop.
00:36:25.000And oh, oh, oh, look, 100% of the votes of this, you know, 48% district, they all went to Joe Biden.
00:36:33.000Just like Spencer Pratt, he's doing pretty good.
00:36:59.000Oh, they didn't go for the Democrat who was actually winning, it went for the third place Democrat who would be the guy in one of those elections in California.
00:37:07.000It's the top two, even if they're from the same party.
00:37:10.000So, shockingly, they all went, almost all.
00:37:14.000Like 99% went for the third place Democrat, not for the Democrat who was actually winning and statistically would have gotten the majority of those votes based on how everything else went.
00:37:22.000Magically, all of the mail in ballots over those coming weeks went to the third place person.
00:38:01.000You know, I've done everything in the Bahamas from bonefish and some of the stuff in the flats to, you know, offshore stuff for tuna and all of that to, you know, deep dropping.
00:40:25.000But it's actually a good question because I know that was one of those things I'm like, man, it seems like based on the facts that I saw, you would fight it out.
00:40:33.000But sometimes it's just easier to give in to the machine, you know, as we've seen.
00:42:40.000If you haven't seen it yet, go check out my outdoor multimedia company called Field Ethos Journal.
00:42:45.000We do a quarterly print journal, really high end, almost like the old school magazines, hard ish cover, heavy gauge paper, good writing.
00:42:56.000We're not trying to sell you shit that you'll never actually use, like a lot of the stuff that's out there.
00:43:00.000So, really good stories, bringing back the old and new, totally unapologetic.
00:43:05.000If you haven't checked it out, check out Field Ethos Journal.
00:43:07.000And if you like, I know we've definitely filmed some of the hunts for that.
00:43:11.000I haven't necessarily done it on the show.
00:43:12.000I should probably just run some of those things because we do some cool stuff, you know, whether it's spearfishing, overlanding, the fishing stuff, some of the hunting stuff.
00:43:47.000There's some good stuff in there, and I think you'll like a lot of the writing, and it's sort of a clue into either my adventures or the adventures of my friends.
00:46:11.000You know, all around big game North America, probably a 300 WinMag.
00:46:16.000Unless I'm, you know, maybe going to the, you know, brown bear, grizzly bear stuff, then I'd probably go up to that 375 if I'm shooting deer, you know, any of the good 6.5, 6.5 PRC, 6.5 Creedmoor, even some of the good, you know, 6mm cartridges.
00:47:06.000They know they can usually bribe me by taking me hunting.
00:47:08.000So we went out to Engelmar, Montana, which is in the middle of nowhere, the only bar in the nearest town.
00:47:17.000Literally, like their dishes, it's just slices of raw onion with like some like tangerines on top and like a sauce.
00:47:26.000So, just to put things into perspective, how remote you are.
00:47:29.000And they're like, you know, we're shooting prairie dogs.
00:47:31.000And we were having a blast and did a lot of, you know, got rid of a lot of those rodents that, you know, end up hurting cattle and horses and stuff like that because they dig holes on the ground.
00:47:39.000Of course, there's a cattle step in it, they break their ankles and then they're done.
00:47:42.000So, you know, sort of important farming to get rid of.
00:47:45.000And, you know, I guess we posted something about it and someone in the local paper wrote up.
00:47:49.000And then it got to the New York Times.
00:47:51.000And the New York Times has this crazy story, and I hadn't yet seen it.
00:47:54.000And I wake up one morning, I think it was like Monday or Tuesday, whatever it is.
00:47:57.000I wake up really, really, it's a call from my dad.
00:48:15.000I'm like, It took me a while to figure out what the hell he was talking about because it was like, But I'm looking at this article, I'm like, Pregnant dogs?
00:48:23.000It's basically one's a ground rat, the other is a pregnant dog.
00:48:28.000Very different, but the New York Times did not know the difference.
00:48:30.000And so they decided to write an article about me shooting pregnant dogs, which was, let's just say, fact check false, but pretty funny nonetheless.
00:48:39.000But what we did use a 338 Lapua improved, which is sort of like a custom chambering that's actually a little bit bigger and faster than a 338 Lapua, which is a very large round for an animal that's about this big.
00:49:33.000But, you know, yeah, you know, it's just.
00:49:38.000Shooting a.375, like on small sides, like you don't need it.
00:49:41.000Like, I'm a big believer in use enough gun, but like within reason.
00:49:45.000And as I get older and my shoulder is just not what it used to be from years of rowing and lifting and fly fishing and, you know, sort of worn out, like if I can avoid that extra recoil sometimes, I will use a.458.
00:50:03.000I've used them in Africa on some big, dangerous stuff, but, you know, probably not what I'm using for anything in North America if I can avoid it.
00:50:12.000Nothing the 375 can't do just as well if you make a good shot.
00:50:16.000I guess the most dangerous thing in probably North America.
00:50:19.000Brown bear and stuff like that, I've killed them with a bow and arrow.
00:50:21.000So if I can do it with a bow, I'm sure I can do it with a 375.
00:50:25.000In fact, I've done both, so I know that it can be done in both regards.
00:50:47.000I mean, the ground squirrels you're not typically eating, and it's you know, it's that's literally just trying to preserve the land and stop them from you know, damaging sort of the domestic livestock and all that kind of stuff.
00:51:04.000Um, I just think you know, I've spoken about this a little bit in a couple shows ago.
00:51:08.000I was like, I guess I just don't have the hubris to assume that we could be the only thing in an infinitely vast universe, and so you know, maybe they're just like us, maybe you know.
00:51:18.000Almost feels like there has to be something about there.
00:51:20.000It seems like they're proving that these days.
00:51:24.000But I'm sure there's probably a lot more than we could ever see because they either don't have, maybe they're not as advanced as us, or maybe they're equally advanced to us and they still can't get to here because we can't get to them.
00:51:35.000So I don't know if they're demonic or not.
00:51:58.000And so the junk can be, the junkyards can be a place where they end up, you know, quite a bit.
00:52:02.000When I lived in Colorado after college, the black bears there used to just, you know, they just hung out in town and try to get into the garbage cans in town andor at your house on a daily basis.
00:53:44.000Someone's talking about not having been good with their gun when they got it.
00:53:49.000But listen, just get out there and practice.
00:53:50.000I think it's important from a safety standpoint, especially if you have guns around the house, even for self defense purposes and whatever it may be.
00:53:58.000I think train with them, teach your kids how to use them.
00:54:01.000I think when you do that and they respect the weapon and everything like that, you also end up with.
00:54:08.000You know, a lot fewer accidents because, you know, people understand the damage, they understand handling, you know, basics, you know, treat every gun as though it's loaded and don't ever point it at anything you don't want to destroy, whether you think it's loaded or not.
00:54:29.000That's, you must be way down the rabbit hole in shooting if you know about PPCs.
00:54:34.000So, yeah, I have six PPCs, 22 PPCs, some of the stuff that's based on that chambering and that caliber.
00:54:42.000And so, you know, that's based off an old, like, I guess it's 220 Russian that, you know, it's a bench press caliber.
00:54:47.000It's for, you know, supreme shooting tiny, tiny, tiny groups, you know, putting bullets through the same hole.
00:54:54.000So I do have some old bench press guns.
00:54:57.000I sort of, at one point in time, gone through every journey and shooting that there is for every kind of discipline and, you know, played well enough to get, you know, pretty good.
00:55:05.000But, you know, the kind of loading and the this, you know, honestly became too much brain damage.
00:55:09.000I just didn't have the time to do all of the things, you know, turning next to try to get brass 100% perfect.
00:55:16.000The guns are just, you know, it's amazing what they can do, but it didn't end up being one of those things that I love as much as, you know, trying to shoot, you know, accurately long range and weird positions and, you know, things that I could perhaps translate better off into, you know, my hunting discipline so you can make harder shots with more certainty, et cetera.
00:55:39.000What do you think about Dell moving its legal headquarters to Texas?
00:55:46.000You know, leftist states that they're going to tax you to death, they're going to control you to death, you can't possibly fire anyone because they, you know, it's insane.
00:55:53.000I think between Texas and Florida, you know, and maybe Tennessee and some of these other places that aren't insane, you know, you're going to see a lot about that.
00:56:03.000Oh, you meant PPC pistol caliber carbine?
00:56:06.000I've, well, I've shot a lot of MP5s, you know, shot a lot of like the Rattler stuff.
00:56:11.000And, you know, yeah, I mean, I sort of grew up around guys that did a lot of that.
00:56:15.000So that was always fun to get out on the range and do that kind of stuff.
00:56:19.000I thought you were talking about the bench press calibers, which is even further down the rabbit hole than, you know, the pistol carbine type stuff.
00:57:13.000I can go, you know, you get consistent for a week or two, and then it's like 14 days of international travel and, you know, or traveling around the country campaigning, and it's, you know, five events a day.
00:57:23.000And it's just like, I know it's not an excuse, but like, You know, it's hard to do five events a day when you're, you know, ranting and raving for an hour on a mic.
00:57:31.000And then it's like, now I got to go work out and lift or run or whatever it may be.
00:57:46.000You know, so I got to get better about it when I'm able to be home for a little bit.
00:57:49.000So I'm hoping the summer lull, you know, I can work from home, I can hit the gym for, you know, an hour or two a day, do those kinds of things.
00:57:56.000But I'm trying to get it back into that, trying to get active on that, you know, the whole health kick.
00:58:01.000Trying to do some of the stem cell stuff and exosome treatments, whatever I can.
00:58:09.000You can go down a rabbit hole on some of these things, but I've started trying to do some of those because I'll be 49 in December.
00:58:16.000Always been in pretty good shape in my life.
00:58:20.000The things I do for fun sort of require that.
00:58:23.000And so if I want to enjoy them, you got to actually be in shape to do it.
00:58:26.000And so I'm trying all that stuff right now.
00:58:30.000So I've been on kind of a healthcare kick and trying to do the sauna a couple times a week and trying to do the red light therapy if I can do it.
00:58:40.000Like, I think I've definitely actually noticed much more gains when I do a solid, you know, let's call it an hour, rather than when you're in the gym doing two hours and overdoing it.
00:58:48.000You know, the rest days are really important.
00:58:50.000And sometimes, because of my travel schedule, sometimes I can get in that rigmarole where, you know, I go to the gym and it's, I'm home for, it's not often that it happens, but, you know, I'm home for a week and you go every day and it's like, you don't get the rest days, you don't get the time to, you know, heal up.
