00:09:15.000 Guys, joining me now, the author of the brand new book, Breaking the Law, Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief, Alex Marlowe.

00:09:22.000 Alex, great to have you back, buddy.

00:09:24.000 Don, always nice to be on with you, especially on this topic.

00:09:26.000 Well, there's a lot to talk about.

00:09:29.000 I mean, we've talked a lot about sort of the fake news media.

00:09:32.000 We've talked a lot about the deep state.

00:09:34.000 But in this new book, Breaking the Law, you really take it all even further in trying this coordinated campaign of lawfare altogether.

00:09:44.000 How do you approach putting this book together?

00:09:46.000 Yeah, well, first of all, for me, I realized that I couldn't even keep all of the major cases straight that you and your family were going through, especially your father, obviously.

00:09:57.000 And he was asked to go through six major cases.

00:10:00.000 There were actually ancillary cases too.

00:10:01.000 There are six major cases all at the same time, all in an election year.

00:10:05.000 And unless you're, you know, someone who is a, you know, a Mike Davis or a Megan Kelly or someone who's like a professional legal pundit, Jonathan Turley, you know, you can keep all six of them straight.

00:10:16.000 And I'm thinking, so how are we supposed to fully understand the extent of the lawfare, what was done?

00:10:22.000 And so I methodically went through, I went through the whole history of lawfare, starting with Franklin Roosevelt.

00:10:27.000 Try to go through that as quickly as I can.

00:10:28.000 And then really focus on all of those six cases.

00:10:31.000 And Don, I found two things in every one of the six major cases against you guys that I saw, two things that are really interesting.

00:10:39.000 They were all way more, I would say, punitive, way more directed, way more political than I even anticipated.

00:10:47.000 And all of them had ties to Joe Biden's White House to one degree or another.

00:10:51.000 It was clear election interference.

00:10:53.000 It was designed to destroy the life of your father and your family members.

00:10:56.000 And they've gotten away with it to this point.

00:10:58.000 There's been no accountability.

00:11:00.000 Luckily, we've seen some investigations announced, but the thought that this could go on, this country is beneath our country and there needs to be accountability.

00:11:06.000 Yeah, no, I'm not a lawyer, but I feel like I've played one on TV because when you're attacked that much, you sort of learn all aspects of law that you had probably no interest in learning before.

00:11:15.000 I understood corporate law.

00:11:16.000 I understood real estate law.

00:11:18.000 I understood the things that were relevant to my business.

00:11:20.000 But when it becomes time to defend yourself against treason, a crime punishable by death, it changed the game a lot for me.

00:11:29.000 Yeah.

00:11:29.000 So for me, I am a student of Andrew Breitbart.

00:11:32.000 I was his first employee 17 years ago.

00:11:35.000 And Andrew focused during his time on Earth on the three core cultural institutions that he believe were guiding our politics.

00:11:43.000 He's famous for the Quo Politics's downstream of culture. 0.99

00:11:46.000 And so what he was talking about was the entertainment media, Hollywood, et cetera, the news media, the establishment news media, and academia.

00:11:55.000 So we basically neutralized the entertainment media.

00:11:58.000 Now basically all of the, you know, the Rosie O'Donnells of the world are there to entertain people like you and me in our shows.

00:12:04.000 You know, the movies are getting less woke and no one's going to the movies anyway.

00:12:08.000 So we did that.

00:12:09.000 The establishment news media, never been so disgraced.

00:12:12.000 Even Jeff Bezos himself, who owns the Washington Post, said journalism is the least trusted profession in the country.

00:12:18.000 So we've neutralized them.

00:12:19.000 Academia, we're doing well.

00:12:21.000 We don't have enough alternatives, but we've Hillsdale, we've PragerU, we've a couple of things.

00:12:24.000 But basically, a college degree matters less than ever has.

00:12:27.000 So we're doing so well.

00:12:28.000 But the left didn't stop.

00:12:30.000 They kept opening up new fronts.

00:12:32.000 The first front was the corporate boardrooms.

00:12:34.000 The next front is lawfare.

00:12:36.000 And that's really what they've been using to try to win politically because their politicians are terrible. 0.68

00:12:41.000 They're not charismatic.

00:12:42.000 Their ideas are terrible.

00:12:43.000 And they lost all those cultural strangleholds.

00:12:46.000 So that's why I wanted to focus on a lawfare because that is the biggest threat to us at the moment.

00:12:50.000 Yeah.

00:12:50.000 No, I mean, I always say, you know, their ideas are terrible, but they're really good at coming up with the next thing.

00:12:55.000 And we always feel like we're playing catch up.

00:12:56.000 Yeah.

00:12:57.000 How do we ever get ahead of that game?

00:12:58.000 You know, like I said, you had sort of the weaponization of media.

00:13:02.000 You're right.

00:13:02.000 That's dead.

00:13:02.000 You see, it doesn't seem like a coincidence to me, but the second USAID was killed, all of a sudden, all these sort of left-wing provocateurs on TV that are, you know, basically activists paid to be comedians, not so funny, as evidenced by their ratings and how much they lost.

00:13:19.000 All of a sudden, they're all getting canceled.

00:13:21.000 It's almost like the slush fund disappeared.

00:13:23.000 So we're no longer going to subsidize their propaganda.

00:13:26.000 But they are really good at evolving and adapting and changing.

00:13:30.000 They went to lawfare.

00:13:32.000 I've always said, hey, I'd love to have a level playing field, but as long as that's not going to be the case, we better be playing the same game as them.

00:13:38.000 Meaning, I don't care if we're playing T-ball or hardball, but if they're playing hardball, we better damn well be playing the same game.

00:13:44.000 How do we catch up on the lawfare side?

00:13:47.000 I don't want to take eight, 10 years, 15 years, whatever it took us to sort of beat down those other four, your other three major branches of propaganda till we figure out this one.

00:13:59.000 And by then they'll be on the next thing.

00:14:01.000 So how do we get ahead of that game to slow down that curve a lot faster?

00:14:05.000 And what do you think is next for them?

00:14:07.000 Yeah, I think for starters, just being diligent and paying closer attention.

00:14:10.000 And I know that's something that we try to do at Breitbart News.

00:14:13.000 You try to do this very well.

00:14:14.000 Your father's obviously great at it, but you're trying to understand where the threats are coming from.

00:14:18.000 But then once we identify really actually dealing with them, and that's why I'm so heartened, it's an amazing week because we saw announcements of special prosecutor into Jack Smith and then a DOJ investigation into Letitia James, who were two of the villains of breaking the law.

00:14:32.000 But I mean, they're two of 24 villains.

00:14:35.000 I mean, there should be another half a dozen investigations.

00:14:37.000 And I make recommendations at Breitbart.com this week on where they should go next.

00:14:42.000 Judge Wad Rashan's got to come up pretty soon.

00:14:44.000 It's Judge Lewis Kaplan.

00:14:46.000 There's a bunch of names that you'll hear that need to be investigated, ought to be investigated.

00:14:50.000 But one thing that is really important, we're also talking about a Russiagate these days.

00:14:55.000 The convicted felon branding that your father has to endure from the Stormy Daniels, Not a Hush Money case, the fake records case, all of that has to do with Michael Cohen and the fact that the DOJ and then the Southern District of New York got access to his Gmail account because of the Russia collusion hoax.

00:15:16.000 They would not have been able to win that case if not for access to Michael Cohen's information that they got from the fake Russia collusion hoax.

00:15:22.000 If we had somehow been able to stop the Russian collusion hoax in the crib and had not spun out of control the way it had, the convicted felon branding never would have happened.

00:15:30.000 And it wouldn't have had to distract your dad, who can still appeal and probably will and will probably win eventually.

00:15:35.000 But you got to think about that.

00:15:36.000 Wouldn't have to think about it at all if not for the fake Russia collision.

00:15:39.000 But it's hard to win in the Southern District of New York, right?

00:15:42.000 You could be right.

00:15:42.000 It doesn't matter.

00:15:43.000 You saw the judges in those cases.

00:15:45.000 You know, the daughter is one of the biggest fundraisers for the Democrat Party. 0.99

00:15:49.000 You know, it's the kind of things that if we were doing it, it would be a serious problem.

00:15:54.000 But for them, it's like it's just another Tuesday.

00:15:57.000 Think about Letitia James, how overt she was and the fact that she said that Donald Trump is the single biggest threat to our country.

00:16:04.000 And she basically stopped trying to pursue normal crime in order to focus solely on Donald Trump.

00:16:10.000 Alvin Bragg campaigned on that he'd sued Trump 100 times, which is not true.

00:16:14.000 He hadn't, but he said so in order to try to win his race.

00:16:16.000 All of these people, Fonnie Willis did the same thing in Georgia, that she campaigned on beating Donald Trump. 0.96

00:16:21.000 And that this wasn't just tolerated.

00:16:22.000 This was celebrated.

00:16:24.000 This was funded.

00:16:25.000 And I named the funders, of course.

00:16:26.000 The people who would say these things would get their campaigns bankrolled.

00:16:30.000 This is a complete travesty and it's blatantly anti-democratic.

00:16:34.000 All these guys say that they're the stewards of democracy.

00:16:36.000 That's not democracy.

00:16:38.000 Yeah, let's not forget.

00:16:39.000 Letitia James said he's the biggest threat to demographics.

00:16:41.000 She's going to go after him while she was campaigning before she actually had any access to information. 1.00

00:16:46.000 She just threw it out there because, hey, that's going to be popular in a sort of a uni party state like New York, especially in New York City.

00:16:56.000 The other thing I want investigated is that Tish James went to the White House at least three times during this.

00:17:02.000 The Reid Hoffman who bankrolled the Eugene Carroll, or as your dad calls her, the woman, the woman case, which is completely absurd.

00:17:09.000 And if people read my telling on that case, if you're not laughing, then we don't share the same sense of humor.

00:17:14.000 It's so ridiculous when you're done getting through all of her claims that you can't help but laugh at it.

00:17:18.000 Reid Hoffman is funding it. 0.62

00:17:20.000 He's at the White House five times in 2022 alone.

00:17:22.000 Nathan Wade, who was Fonnie Willis' boyfriend, he's at the White House twice, two eight-hour meetings.

00:17:28.000 Don, he was a family lawyer.

00:17:30.000 He was doing divorces and prenups, and he finds himself on a RICO case trying to take out the most powerful man in the world.

00:17:35.000 And he's getting White House visits and no one's even asking what they're talking about during these visits.

00:17:40.000 Are they trying to rig our election?

00:17:41.000 Are they trying to subvert our democracy?

00:17:43.000 Are they coordinating in a way that clearly is a conspiracy against rights?

00:17:47.000 I think so.

00:17:48.000 And that's why all these people need to be held to account or else we're running the risk is going to happen again.

00:17:54.000 I mean, Alex, you've written about the media and breaking down the Biden family corruption.

00:17:59.000 Now you're focusing on the legal system.

00:18:00.000 In your mind, how troubling is it that these institutions, the media, the political establishment and the courts all have been caught acting as arms of the far left-wing Democrat Party.

00:18:13.000 And what's been the trajectory of that since January 20th?

00:18:17.000 Are we making any gains against this madness or is it just sort of a push-stall tactic right now till they have someone that perhaps has less of a soapbox or is less willing to fight the way that they fight, et cetera?

00:18:29.000 Yeah.

00:18:29.000 It's, oh man, it's such a great question.

00:18:31.000 We have to be in a wartime footing because we can't let our guard down and we have to assume that they're sharpening their blade.

00:18:37.000 They're going to have another great charismatic, persuasive candidate who's going to captivate people's attention with great ideas down the pike, that they'll never run out of money, that they'll never run out of energy.

00:18:46.000 We have to assume that because if we rest on our laurels and if we feel like, well, we've got a great bench, we're all organized, we're all fun now.

00:18:54.000 They even gave us Sidney Sweeney for free.

00:18:56.000 We didn't even ask.

00:18:56.000 They just said, here, take her.

00:18:58.000 It's like, you guys can have her.

00:18:59.000 It's like, she's a hot blonde. 1.00

00:19:00.000 Why don't you, she's no place with us. 1.00

00:19:02.000 We're here for Rosie and Kathy Griffin.

00:19:03.000 That's what we're all about.

00:19:04.000 But doesn't it say something that they, I mean, that they can't comprehend that, like, I don't know, like people may be attracted to attracted people.

00:19:12.000 Like the fact that they can't even get that, but they had no problem force feeding us like some sort of, you know, trans whale, you know, in what's supposed to be, you know, sexy stuff or athletic wear. 0.65

00:19:24.000 And it, you know, someone who's 400 pounds overweights, you know, clearly healthy in their mind.

00:19:29.000 I mean, does not, I mean, I feel like this is a battle we should be able to win.

00:19:34.000 I mean, if politics is downstream of culture, and I agree with Andrew Byrd 100% on that, if they still can't comprehend that, how is it that we can't win this?

00:19:43.000 I mean, is it just that we're just not fighting the same way?

00:19:46.000 We're still not accustomed to, you know, everything we've seen for the last 10 years hasn't changed our mindset.

00:19:51.000 Because I mean, I guess I'm a fighter, but I come from a sort of a line of fighters. 0.98

00:19:54.000 I didn't probably realize I was a fighter until they tried to throw me in jail for bullshit. 0.98

00:19:59.000 But it didn't stop them. 0.99

00:20:01.000 And your family comes up in so many of these cases where not just your dad, it's his most ardent supporters and it's his family members.

00:20:07.000 I mean, they're trying to get all you guys.

00:20:08.000 And I would love to, that's why I was saying to you, Avir, I want to interview you on it.

00:20:11.000 I want to hear what your experience was because it seems so much worse to me having gone through it as a person who was obviously a observer of this and someone who understands it as Edward Breitbart, but did not have all the detail.

00:20:23.000 Now they have all the detail.

00:20:24.000 I honestly can't believe how you guys made it.

00:20:26.000 It was such a political persecution.

00:20:28.000 It is historic.

00:20:29.000 This is sort of a historical document I put together in the sense that I've never seen anything like this in this country.

00:20:35.000 I mean, this has been decades and decades and decades since we've seen anything like this level of persecution.

00:20:39.000 And that Donald Trump won an election during all this.

00:20:42.000 Completely crazy, completely crazy this happened. 0.85

00:20:45.000 Miraculous.

00:20:46.000 I'll tell you, it was divine intervention.

00:20:47.000 I talked to your dad about this numerous times since the Butler shooting.

00:20:54.000 Clearly, divine intervention.

00:20:55.000 Anyone who disagrees with that is just completely blind, in my opinion.

00:20:59.000 But to answer your question, which is such an important question, what do we do?

00:21:04.000 And I think that staying on that wartime footing is really big, but also we should keep having fun because they're so weak.

00:21:10.000 We should keep running up the score, keep enacting the best parts of our agenda, restore law and order, get the border under control.

00:21:17.000 Is he the fact that today we're talking about this with this announcement that Trump's going to try to make DC great again?

00:21:24.000 I lived in DC.

00:21:25.000 DC should be great.

00:21:27.000 It could be an iconic city.

00:21:28.000 It's naturally very beautiful.

00:21:29.000 It's got our monuments there.

00:21:31.000 It's got our museums there.

00:21:33.000 It's got the DC Falls are amazing.

00:21:35.000 The DC Springs are amazing.

00:21:36.000 Why give up on that place?

00:21:38.000 We shouldn't.

00:21:38.000 So Donald Trump doesn't want to.

00:21:40.000 That's awesome.

00:21:41.000 We should be doing that and controlling the narrative in that way.

00:21:43.000 And if we do that, they're going to have a really hard time coming back.

00:21:46.000 But don't underestimate how organized and how well-funded they are because they're both of those things and they're not going to stop.

00:21:52.000 They care about politics more than you and me.

00:21:54.000 You've got a bunch of kids, Don.

00:21:56.000 You like to be hunting.

00:21:57.000 You like to be growing businesses.

00:21:58.000 I got a bunch of kids.

00:21:59.000 I want to play some golf.

00:22:00.000 I want to watch some movies.

00:22:01.000 They don't think that way.

00:22:02.000 No, they just want to take away your freedoms.

00:22:05.000 That is their passion, their vocation, their hobby, all wrapped up into one.

00:22:12.000 But you're right that we have to have some fun in this process.

00:22:15.000 Last week, I posted up a meme on Instagram.

00:22:18.000 It was my father throwing a green dildo onto a WNBA court from the roof of the White House.

00:22:23.000 I mean, it was just a play on what was going on with the WNBA, which I think probably the greatest thing to happen to WNB ratings since Caitlin Clark, Dildo Gate, I guess.

00:22:33.000 And CNN did an entire segment on it.

00:22:36.000 Like, it's serious.

00:22:37.000 Like, they can't, you know, how disgraceful.

00:22:40.000 They literally can't even step back and have fun for a moment, even on something so absurd.

00:22:45.000 You know, it makes it feel like if we play that game, you know, especially for the youth vote and people who are like, okay, you know what?

00:22:51.000 I don't have to agree.

00:22:52.000 Not everything has to be coup.

00:22:54.000 Not everything has to go some sort of level of decorum.

00:22:56.000 They certainly don't play that way, but they're incapable of humor at this point.

00:23:02.000 I have, I'll tell you how overwhelmed they are, Don.

00:23:06.000 That on my podcast, I said that I bought my seven-year-old WNBA tickets and I bought an unnamed green sex toy to bring to specifically to throw it onto the court. 0.91

00:23:19.000 I'm trying to get the Soros-funded freaks to write something about how insane the Breitbart editor is. 0.64

00:23:24.000 And they don't have time because they're too overwhelmed.

00:23:27.000 Well, I want to thank CNN for the free promotion of my Instagram account and a general sense of humor, but I'm like, man, it's like, I can't believe they actually spoke about it.

00:23:35.000 It's sort of amazing.

00:23:36.000 And they took the bait entirely.

00:23:37.000 Yeah, you've got a little higher profile than I do, but mine's pretty high and they missed it.

00:23:41.000 And I was hoping they'd give me a hard time.

00:23:43.000 Look at how this horrible, you know, Breitbart dad, what he's doing, which I did not do that.

00:23:48.000 I just, I just rented him the moon bounce with the water slide on it.

00:23:51.000 Well, listen, Alex, now that they're not allowing bags into the WNBA game, if you want to play the green sex toy game, there's going to be, there's a level of commitment that I'm not quite sure I'm willing to make to get to make that happen, as funny as it may be.

00:24:07.000 So, you know, I guess they're stepping up their countermeasures.

00:24:12.000 But to tie this to Andrew, Andrew dreamed of a conservative movement in a Republican Party that's fun.

00:24:19.000 He dreamed of a Republican Party where the left was the joyless scolds and we were the ones who were having a great time with the best memes and the hottest chicks.

00:24:28.000 And the left seems to be trying to deliver that for us right away.

00:24:32.000 They're so sad.

00:24:34.000 They're so glum.

00:24:35.000 I like to check in with Pod Save America from time to time, which used to be kind of a cool left-wing podcast for like 20 minutes, but then they got so full of themselves and they took themselves so seriously and they got so angry and so smug.

00:24:46.000 And they just look so sad now every time they're forced to podcast.

00:24:50.000 And you see stuff like that.

00:24:51.000 You see all the Rosie O'Donnell videos.

00:24:52.000 I can't get enough of these videos.

00:24:53.000 She's so sad.

00:24:54.000 They're all so sad.

00:24:55.000 And in the meantime, we're just running up the score and having fun doing it.

00:24:59.000 And that's the mindset we need to keep.

00:25:01.000 Think of Andrew Breitbart.

00:25:02.000 Whenever you're deciding, should we be having fun now or not?

00:25:05.000 The answer is fun.

00:25:06.000 And that's part of what Donald Trump's charisma is all about.

00:25:08.000 It's about he's a fun guy.

00:25:10.000 He's a great hang.

00:25:10.000 Yeah.

00:25:11.000 And he's got a real sense of humor.

00:25:12.000 I mean, you could see that even from 1516, you know, they take something he said, you know, and when you put it in print and you change the punctuation a little bit, it's like, wow, that's, but then you see the video.

00:25:20.000 It's like, oh, like he's so clearly joking.

00:25:23.000 Everyone gets it, but for them, you know, wantonly sort of disregarding the obvious humor in it.

00:25:29.000 But he's a unique character, right?

00:25:31.000 He's not a politician.

00:25:34.000 He doesn't care about those norms.

00:25:35.000 He'll do that.

00:25:37.000 Do you think the Republican Party can continue that after Trump?

00:25:41.000 Or do you go back to sort of the humorless kind of Mitt Romneys of the world, the Liz Cheneys of the world, where we get back into that Rigmarole where we're playing that same glum game as them?

00:25:52.000 I think we have a bench that can probably do it, but Trump's a unique guy.

00:25:56.000 Do you think they can handle that and keep it going?

00:25:59.000 I think that that's a big fear.

00:26:00.000 And I think that there's some that's definitely characteristics we need to keep an eye on as a movement because part of what I think the you know, I was very vocal about praising the podcast strategy at the end of the 2024 election.

00:26:14.000 When I saw that happening, talk about one of those things where it's good to get out ahead of stuff.

00:26:18.000 That was a positive one where I was trying to be very vocal and to tell people, no, this is a big deal.

00:26:23.000 That Trump is going around these comedians' podcasts, JD was as well, and showing up on these podcasts and trying to reach people who are sort of maybe interested in politics, but aren't going to sit down and listen to a political show or go to Breitbart's front page or something like that.

00:26:37.000 Maybe that's not who they are, but we can still reach those people.

00:26:40.000 That's so important to do.

00:26:41.000 And we've got to make sure that we're not losing sight of that.

00:26:43.000 And that's part of the conscientious strategy.

00:26:45.000 It's not an accident.

00:26:46.000 We're not stumbling into it.

00:26:47.000 That's on purpose.

00:26:48.000 If we do that, we have a big advantage because most of them aren't fun.

00:26:51.000 They have a couple of fun people, but overall, they're mostly very upset, very angry, very old. 0.72

00:26:56.000 And that's an advantage we've got to preserve.

00:26:59.000 It feels like their Fun people aren't allowed to be fun because, you know, if you are that person, you're not going to get the funding required from New York City, Los Angeles, sort of the big money apparatus because you have to believe that a three-year-old should be able to change their gender without parental consent.

00:27:15.000 And you must believe that men should be playing in women's sports.

00:27:17.000 And if you don't, or if you have even a reasonable approach on any of these things, you're sort of out of that money apparatus, which makes all of that political stuff work for them.

00:27:28.000 Yeah, I think that's a big thing.

00:27:30.000 So, but what are they going to do?

00:27:32.000 You know, they spend $20 million on the consultants to try to help them win back the young male vote.

00:27:39.000 And then what's the first thing they do afterwards is they just, they take a hot chicken jeans and just declare she's a Nazi and anyone who supports her is a Nazi.

00:27:47.000 And then they went out and they actually.

00:27:48.000 Well, Alex, her initials are SS.

00:27:51.000 So she must, I mean, she must be.

00:27:52.000 I mean, she must be.

00:27:54.000 That was the dog whistle.

00:27:55.000 It's all coded.

00:27:56.000 Yeah, it's all coded.

00:27:56.000 It's all code.

00:27:57.000 No, but this is what I learned at Berkeley.

00:27:59.000 It's just, it's all code.

00:28:00.000 Everything is a code for something.

00:28:01.000 Nothing's literal.

00:28:02.000 It's all just coded racism.

00:28:03.000 And that's how the whole culture.

00:28:05.000 I still find it hard to believe you went to Berkeley.

00:28:07.000 Oh, I went on purpose, baby.

00:28:08.000 It was fun.

00:28:09.000 It was, it was good.

00:28:10.000 I was causing problems and learning a lot about the left, learning about that they have this really joyless mean side.

00:28:16.000 And it's one of those things where we can capitalize on this and we should.

00:28:21.000 And the other thing that they did was no one just took a mea culpa on that and say, we shouldn't have done that and criticize their own side. 0.72

00:28:28.000 You see the Pot Save America fools saying that, no, you guys on the right blew it out of proportion.

00:28:33.000 No, man, we've got TikTok. 0.97

00:28:35.000 You can see it.

00:28:36.000 There was one post after the next saying this is Nazi propaganda.

00:28:39.000 It was nonstop.

00:28:41.000 And they're trying to gaslight us and act like we're not witnessing with our own two eyes what we're seeing.

00:28:45.000 They've lost it.

00:28:46.000 They've completely lost it.

00:28:47.000 Yeah, they may not be happy that they created the monster, but they definitely created the monster.

00:28:52.000 They created it.

00:28:53.000 The monster got created by them.

00:28:54.000 And so they're going to have to recuperate.

00:28:56.000 So the question is, can we lock in the agenda during this time?

00:29:01.000 The good thing for about us or the good thing for us is that Donald Trump is compulsively hyperactive in terms of getting his agenda done.

00:29:09.000 I think this works for a couple of reasons.

00:29:11.000 First of all, he just loves life and that's what you do.

00:29:14.000 But second of all, controls the media narrative.

00:29:16.000 So that's a double win.

00:29:17.000 So that strategy, move fast and break stuff, that strategy is really important.

00:29:21.000 We got to keep that going.

00:29:22.000 And then during that time, we need to be very vigilant about recruiting.

00:29:27.000 So that's why I say warfooting, making sure we're reaching out to all the coalitions.

00:29:30.000 And you do that with promises made, promises kept.

00:29:33.000 And that's why the Epstein stuff was such a disaster, even though I don't think most people care about Epstein nearly as much as the online right.

00:29:39.000 But the problem with it was they promise something and the rollout gets botched and then people get disappointed and they get worried.

00:29:47.000 Are you going to break my heart too?

00:29:49.000 And that's the type of lesson we got to take that we can't do that again.

00:29:51.000 We can't make those mistakes.

00:29:52.000 If we can avoid those mistakes while running up the score, I think we're going to continue to pull people in to the point where people remember they voted for Trump, even if they didn't.

00:30:00.000 Yeah, no, I think that makes a lot of sense.

00:30:01.000 I mean, maybe to just circle back to the book, you know, it gets into the superstructure of donors and activists behind all of the madness as well.

00:30:10.000 Can you pull back the curtain for us?

00:30:12.000 And, you know, you talked about Reid Hoffman, obviously, but what are some of the other key players and organizations that are funding the lawfare and making that happen?

00:30:19.000 Yeah, I'm glad you asked about this because I think this is one that I think a lot of the audience cares about.

00:30:24.000 The number one, and it's the name that everyone knows, but it's still, I don't think people fully understand it.

00:30:30.000 And it's part of what going through the exercise of going through a book.

00:30:32.000 And I know you've done several.

00:30:33.000 I've read some of your books, Don.

00:30:34.000 They're always good.

00:30:36.000 But some things just solidify in your head.

00:30:38.000 George Soros is single-handedly responsible for the chaos in our cities.

00:30:42.000 We're talking today about DC chaos.

00:30:45.000 The reason why our cities are in chaos is because of one guy.

00:30:49.000 He buys all these elections and he installs people who do not want law and order.

00:30:54.000 They want felons on the street. 0.97

00:30:55.000 They want the law-abiding living in fear so that the criminals can run wild.

00:30:59.000 There's a guy who's not an American-born guy, who is a plutocrat billionaire, who is a committed member of the far left.

00:31:08.000 And he's destroyed our city single-handedly.

00:31:11.000 And we're very cash about it.

00:31:12.000 We act like this is some sort of fringe right-wing thing is not at all.

00:31:15.000 This is an existential threat to the United States of America from this guy.

00:31:19.000 And I put a lot of the detail on the type of money that's spent.

00:31:22.000 There's some new names that people understand.

00:31:25.000 This guy named Herb Sandler, who runs a thing called the Sandler Foundation.

00:31:29.000 If you read A story that's a hit piece on Clarence Thomas or a story that's a hit piece on Samuel Alito, somebody that's trying to make it so that if you're a conservative originalist judge or justice, that your life is a living hell.

00:31:40.000 Probably written by someone who's got money from the Sandler Foundation.

00:31:43.000 Herb Sandler was a billionaire banker, not someone who spent his time doing anything super important.

00:31:49.000 But what he did do with all the money he made is he used philanthropy.

00:31:53.000 He was the first guy to do this.

00:31:54.000 I'm a philanthropist to just fund one left-wing cause after the next, after the next.

00:31:59.000 He was before Soros at all of this?

00:32:01.000 Yeah.

00:32:01.000 Soros, he worked with Soros on a lot of stuff.

00:32:04.000 So a lot of overlap with open society.

00:32:09.000 He had given a bunch of money, like they give to the same causes.

00:32:12.000 For example, ProPublica, which is their journalism outfit, but it's not really journalism.

00:32:17.000 Journalism.

00:32:18.000 We got to use some serious air quotes of that one.

00:32:20.000 Well, it's activism where they weaponize both, you know, sort of real news is not really important or fake news, and they amplify it in order to try to create media narratives funded by both of them, Herb Sandler and Soros' Open Society.

00:32:33.000 So they work together.

00:32:34.000 You see a lot of overlap.

00:32:36.000 You know, Reid Hoffman, who I mentioned earlier, who funded the Eugene Carroll case, him and Sandler and the Sandler Foundation, him and Soros, him and Lorene Powell Jobs, who I talked to you about in past shows, who bankrolls The Atlantic and other outlets.

00:32:48.000 They all work together.

00:32:49.000 So it's really a handful of these billionaires funding dark money operations like Arabella Advisors.

00:32:55.000 And these are the things that are always funding the left-wing grassroots.

00:32:58.000 So there's always money in their coffers so that they can essentially use things like media to target people for harassment.

00:33:04.000 And it was a name I hadn't heard before, but this guy, Herb Sandler, the Sandler Foundation, funding the Center for American Progress, ACLU, Human Rights Watch, Sierra Club, one left-wing group after the next.

00:33:15.000 But that's just the ones where you can see it on paper.

00:33:18.000 You know, they're funding everything else.

00:33:19.000 They just use shell companies and dark money and a huge apparatus that they've created in order to funnel money into lawfare.

00:33:26.000 The last one I'll bring up for now, and then I'm sure you'll want to talk about some of this.

00:33:30.000 But David Brock, guy from Media Matters, he's a guy who's a donor magnet.

00:33:35.000 If he wanted to fund a Democrat adopting Stray Cats initiative, all of a sudden the donors would be there for him.

00:33:43.000 If he funds Media Matters, he starts Media Matters.

00:33:46.000 He launched this thing called Project 65.

00:33:48.000 Don, the whole point of Project 65 is to get people who represent your father and his allies, get them debarred, literally kick them off the bar.

00:33:56.000 So not only can they not get a major white shoe, glossy law firm, they can't work at all.

00:34:02.000 And that's the stated purpose of the organization, well-funded by the same billionaires who are behind Media Matters.

00:34:08.000 That's what they're doing.

00:34:09.000 They don't want it so that we have a society where people are entitled to an attorney. 1.00

00:34:14.000 You know, you're Miranda, right?

00:34:16.000 You're entitled to an attorney.

00:34:17.000 No, they want if you get good representation and you're a conservative political figure, then you don't get to work again.

00:34:23.000 That's the whole goal of this thing.

00:34:24.000 This is why I'm saying their organization is so, so big.

00:34:29.000 It's even more vast than you would ever imagined.

00:34:31.000 So, Alex, we talked a little bit about perhaps what's next after lawfair.

00:34:36.000 You know, they evolved from sort of utilizing entertainment and media and academia and everything like that against us.

00:34:41.000 Then it went to lawfare.

00:34:42.000 But your book makes sort of bold predictions about where all the lawfare is heading.

00:34:47.000 What should an everyday person listening to this podcast be looking out for to protect themselves and their families?

00:34:52.000 Because again, I think if there's one thing we've proven is that if they can do it to Trump, they can do it to anyone.

00:34:58.000 But more importantly, if they will do it to Trump, meaning someone who has a large soapbox, has the money to fund the legal teams and the tens, hundreds of millions of dollars we've spent defending even nonsense.

00:35:11.000 It doesn't matter.

00:35:12.000 If they can go after Trump and they will, who won't they go after?

00:35:16.000 Yeah.

00:35:16.000 So I go through early on when I'm trying to set the stage for the major Trump cases in breaking the law.

00:35:23.000 I go through some of those J6 cases and they're appalling. 1.00

00:35:26.000 Some of them were people who were not even there, who maybe wandered around the Capitol peacefully, and they were hauling these guys in, waiting for them to come off of Southwest flight to the airport on the tarmac in front of their kids to haul them in.

00:35:39.000 They're that nasty and they're that vicious.

00:35:42.000 And we need to be prepared because if we ever let them in power again, that they're not just coming after Trump.

00:35:46.000 His quote, which I refer to three, four times in the book, that they're not just coming after me.

00:35:50.000 They're coming after you.

00:35:51.000 I'm just in their way.

00:35:52.000 It's completely true.

00:35:53.000 It's usually a mistake to take President Trump literally.

00:35:56.000 This time, do it because it's true. 0.98

00:35:58.000 He's just the biggest whale for them.

00:36:00.000 And all of you are absolutely would be in the crosshairs.

00:36:03.000 So, elected leaders, if you're watching this, you guys need to put pressure for investigations, hold people accountable, make people think twice before engaging in lawfare.

00:36:10.000 But for those of you who are not, you got to stay engaged civically.

00:36:14.000 We've got to vote.

00:36:15.000 We got to vote in those down ticket races.

00:36:16.000 We got to learn who the judges are, who are on the ballot, even though I know that's hard to do.

00:36:20.000 You've got to recruit family members to make sure they're voting.

00:36:22.000 They're not missing midterm elections.

00:36:24.000 The problem of lawfully, the biggest one of all, there's just too many liberals in the legal system.

00:36:29.000 There's too many liberals on the bench.

00:36:30.000 There's too many liberals in the attorney community, whatever that is.

00:36:35.000 And we need to rebalance that quickly.

00:36:37.000 You can do that with elections.

00:36:38.000 You do that with engagement.

00:36:39.000 You do with persuasion, with having the best, funniest, most interesting arguments.

00:36:43.000 Yeah, I think apathy is our biggest, the biggest threat to what we have right now.

00:36:47.000 And we saw that right after the election and some of those special elections, Wisconsin Supreme Court and stuff.

00:36:52.000 Our people were like, wait, we're getting what we want.

00:36:54.000 They're closing down the border.

00:36:55.000 They shut down this.

00:36:56.000 Egg prices are coming down.

00:36:57.000 Like, what do you mean there's an election going on?

00:36:59.000 It's like, no, you just lost control of your Supreme Court, which is going to decide redistricting.

00:37:03.000 So a state that we won, you know, six weeks later, you can literally lose that state potentially, not because people wouldn't have voted that way, but they're apathetic.

00:37:13.000 They're sitting back.

00:37:13.000 They're happy with whatever wins they're getting.

00:37:15.000 And they're not as engaged as when you're not in power.

00:37:18.000 That's the warning.

00:37:19.000 The last piece of the book, it's the sort of conclusion portion is a warning that if we let our guard down right now, if we let starting with the Russians, with Comys and the Brennans of the world, and then into the law fair with the Letitia James and the Jack Smiths and the Weimar Shawns, if they all get away with what they did, then they're just going to repeat it again. 0.84

00:37:38.000 And the only way to stop them long term is to win every single election.

00:37:42.000 We can't lose one.

00:37:43.000 We take everyone seriously.

00:37:45.000 And we can't just get fed up because maybe our favorite issue is not front burner anymore.

00:37:50.000 Maybe we got kicked to the second tier.

00:37:52.000 It's happened to all of us.

00:37:53.000 You got to be an adult.

00:37:54.000 You got to power through it and to understand that these people, the Soros-funded DAs who are controlling our crime in our streets, they're going to be in charge of the whole country if we're not careful.

00:38:05.000 Yeah, it's a scary prospect, but definitely within the realm of possibility.

00:38:10.000 I mean, if they had their way, they would certainly make that happen.

00:38:12.000 I bet we're the front line of defense against that.

00:38:14.000 But again, we have to stay engaged.

00:38:16.000 Yeah, they're very beatable, but it is, I think if you let your guard down and just have a good time right now because we're winning and we're racking up wins at a record level, then you're making a grave mistake.

00:38:29.000 I think we can have a great time while still trying to run up the score and to bust the bad guys.

00:38:34.000 So, Alex, your work at Breitbart has always really been about exposing the truth, even if it's not popular or mainstream.

00:38:40.000 What's the number one lie, you know, false flags, false narrative about the legal system that you hope breaking the law completely shatters for the American people?

00:38:49.000 Yeah, unfortunately, a lot of people think that a lot of people pursue law with the concept of law and order as the goal, that they actually like the concept of law and order.

00:39:00.000 They like the idea of democracy.

00:39:02.000 And a lot of people don't.

00:39:04.000 They're really here in the legal profession to use the law to advance a political narrative.

00:39:09.000 And that's way more common than I'd anticipated.

00:39:12.000 That huge sections of the areas that I researched just showed a deep politicization from the law schools to the bar associations to the funding mechanisms to the way these big white shoe law firms operate.

00:39:23.000 A lot of them are really looking to get political goals and to not really adhere to some sort of concept of law and order.

00:39:29.000 They see law and order as very easily malleable and it can go with the left-wing political zeitgeist.

00:39:36.000 And this goes back all the way to Franklin Roosevelt.

00:39:38.000 I chart this, that the law is basically up to interpretation for whatever the liberal vibe is at the moment.

00:39:45.000 That can be the law.

00:39:46.000 And that to me is wild because it doesn't feel like that should be a political thing.

00:39:51.000 It feels like the law should be the law.

00:39:52.000 No, that's not how much of the legal establishment feels.

00:39:56.000 And that's why we got to put them on notice.

00:39:57.000 Yeah, I mean, they do that every day with the Second Amendment, right?

00:39:59.000 I mean, shall not be infringed.

00:40:01.000 I don't feel like you have to be a brilliant legal mind or scholar to understand what that means or what the founding fathers intended.

00:40:06.000 And yet every day there's another attack on our Second Amendment rights.

00:40:10.000 Let me take it a step further.

00:40:11.000 It takes the legal training for you to argue something so absurd as the Second Amendment, which is plain as day, is not true.

00:40:18.000 No, 100%.

00:40:19.000 So, you know, of course, while we have you, we always have to have the conversation about the local stuff.

00:40:24.000 You're a California guy.

00:40:25.000 You went to Berkeley.

00:40:26.000 It's sort of hard that you could be the editor-in-chief at Breitbart with the decades of indoctrination, but we do see some of the worst forms of law affair coming from your home state of California. 0.97

00:40:37.000 What is it about California and the political machine there that seems to be at the center of every hoax, witch hunt, form of idiocy that we see out there today?

00:40:48.000 Yeah, it's become a self-fulfilling prophecy out here because the state, because it is so beautiful and because there is so much money and there's so much opportunity.

00:40:58.000 There's just great vacation destinations.

00:40:59.000 There's so many jobs with Hollywood and Silicon Valley and with the university systems that it just people just show up here.

00:41:06.000 I'm one of them.

00:41:07.000 And we moved back here because my wife got a job at a hospital connected to UCLA.

00:41:12.000 And it's just something that happens.

00:41:15.000 And then you find yourself back out here, even though you know the politics are totally toxic.

00:41:19.000 And so what that's done, and I'm part of the problem in some ways, is it's enabled the far left to dominate.

00:41:25.000 So it's a single party state with single party run cities.

00:41:29.000 If you look at it, the political gulf, the voter registration gap, I think is under 20%, Democrat to Republican.

00:41:36.000 But in terms of the elected officials, it's a gap of like 60 plus percent because just the way things are broken up, Democrats win almost every election, even though there's so many Republicans who are here.

00:41:47.000 And we Republicans who are here, we comfort ourselves enough that we end up staying and not leaving and paying into all the madness.

00:41:53.000 But then we just get overwhelmed at the polls.

00:41:55.000 So it's truly a strange existence.

00:41:57.000 But I'll tell you, Don, I have a lot of great getaways on weekends that I get to go to, so I can soothe myself a little bit.

00:42:02.000 Okay.

00:42:02.000 So what are the practical steps, whether legislatively, culturally, or otherwise, that you recommend for people who want to fight back against that level of corruption, whether it's there or elsewhere in some of these very blue states to help restore integrity to our legal system?

00:42:17.000 Yeah, it's hard to think of it that way, particularly in a state like this.

00:42:22.000 It's nice to try to make sure you're living in, if you have family, you try to live in places where you feel like they'll be protected, where they'll see equal justice under the law.

00:42:31.000 So, and that's the risk in a lot of these far left areas.

00:42:34.000 And if you rebreaking the law, you go through it, you see areas in New York and Maryland and D.C. where if you get in trouble in those areas, you're dead to rights if you're a conservative.

00:42:44.000 It's just the nature of the beast.

00:42:46.000 And that's got to be consideration when you're thinking of where to put down roots.

00:42:49.000 But longer term, we've got to be persuasive.

00:42:52.000 We got to convince people.

00:42:53.000 And we're having more children, which is good.

00:42:56.000 And I'm optimistic long term we can save things.

00:42:59.000 But there's some places, New York City looks so bleak right now.

00:43:01.000 It just looks like they look so lost.

00:43:03.000 Not just Mamdoni, but I mean, just think about the other candidates as well.

00:43:06.000 I mean, Cuomo is a horrific candidate, one of the worst ever.

00:43:09.000 Do you have a take on that race, Don?

00:43:17.000 And like, you know, he's going to take 1% of the vote, but he could split an Alvin Bragg vote to give it, yeah, he's never going to win anything.

00:43:23.000 He's got no chance.

00:43:24.000 But, you know, I guess he probably draws a little salary for running for mayor or whatever it may be.

00:43:28.000 And he'll, he'll stay in there.

00:43:29.000 So it's truly scary.

00:43:31.000 I mean, I feel like Cuomo, when he's like, well, we got to figure this out.

00:43:34.000 It's like, no, no, no, you ran already.

00:43:36.000 And listen, full disclosure, my first political fundraiser ever was for Andrew Cuomo because I was a real estate guy.

00:43:42.000 We built buildings and he was running for attorney general of New York.

00:43:44.000 And if you're going to build a building, you need the attorney general to sign off on any offering plan that you do.

00:43:48.000 So like, you know, I know some of these players well.

00:43:51.000 You know, during 16 and that term, I mean, during the beginning of COVID, really, you know, if they need, he back channeled through me because we have a bunch of friends in common and we were pretty close, even if I didn't agree with a lot of his politics.

00:44:06.000 But the difference between him and other candidates was then when he got on TV, he could not help but take the bait.

00:44:13.000 Meaning Trump could have done everything that he asked for, but he knew that if he said the opposite or if he said something against Trump on TV five minutes later, they'd give him all the clicks and likes.

00:44:21.000 And, you know, he was running, I guess, as a Cuomosexual or whatever it was at the time. 0.95

00:44:25.000 You know, it was sort of an amazing thing.

00:44:27.000 That's right.

00:44:28.000 But he couldn't help himself.

00:44:30.000 So, you know, I sort of feel like you ran in a Democratic Party, primary, you lost.

00:44:34.000 Like, let one, you know, let, you know, I guess, you know, one, one of the other guys win.

00:44:41.000 I mean, I guess the existing mayor has probably got the best chance of the remaining, but you can't have Curtis Silo in there.

00:44:48.000 You can't have, you know, Cuomo in there splitting that remaining vote because everyone's running as an independent for the sake of running.

00:44:53.000 That's not going to work.

00:44:54.000 That's a way to guarantee communism in New York.

00:44:57.000 And as a former New Yorker, as someone who still has a lot of assets there, you know, that's really scary.

00:45:02.000 But I'm also of the mindset that maybe it just has to just burn down.

00:45:06.000 Maybe they just have to destroy themselves for us to see.

00:45:09.000 Because I, you know, as bad as that is for us personally and for the place I grew up in and loved and whatever it may be, maybe it's what the country needs to see, you know, when it goes to hell in a handbasket to understand that your communism is not the answer.

00:45:25.000 These ideas are not new.

00:45:27.000 It's not different this time.

00:45:29.000 It's going to fail like it has every other time in history.

00:45:32.000 And so that's a scary notion.

00:45:34.000 You don't want to write off a place, but man, you almost don't have a choice.

00:45:37.000 Yeah, the problem is, is that people don't learn lessons.

00:45:40.000 So I'm not, I don't want to be naive about that.

00:45:41.000 I don't know if people will learn, but I, for the record, I don't think Andrew Cuomo should run anything. 0.99

00:45:48.000 I think after the nursing home policies that he had, I think his political instincts are garbage. 0.97

00:45:52.000 I think he is responsible for the death of all those seniors. 0.98

00:45:54.000 It's like, that's not forgivable for me.

00:45:56.000 So it's the, unless someone's going to come up and be better.

00:46:00.000 I mean, Mayor Adams seems like more reasonable, but he's polling at nothing.

00:46:04.000 I mean, just no one's interested.

00:46:06.000 So it's one of these things where I'm not an accelerationist for the destruction of our cities if we can help it.

00:46:12.000 If we have a realistic chance of being able to do some good, but no, I think that's my point.

00:46:16.000 I just don't know that we can help it right now.

00:46:18.000 I don't know that we have a choice.

00:46:20.000 You know, if Adams can't win and if Cuomo is going to pull out, I mean, you know, you're still going sort of the lesser of multiple evils.

00:46:27.000 You know, Cuomo versus Mandani, as bad as Cuomo was, it's sort of still a no-brainer, but I just.

00:46:35.000 Well, for me, it is a brainer because I just detest Cuomo so much.

00:46:38.000 It's such a visceral level. 0.99

00:46:40.000 What a loathsome individual.

00:46:42.000 I just have to say, there's no one I dislike more because he was getting an Emmy when he was letting all those seniors die. 0.94

00:46:47.000 And that's just crazy to me.

00:46:49.000 That is just the, that was a low moment for America that he's lying about the virus and he's getting all these seniors trapped with other seniors so they're going to die.

00:47:00.000 Well, and he also got, you know, like a five to seven million dollar, you know, book payment for a book that didn't sell any books.

00:47:05.000 And it was just like, you can see that the entire apparatus, everything else that we're talking about was at play.

00:47:10.000 I mean, it doesn't make any sense.

00:47:11.000 It doesn't make any sense. 0.96

00:47:12.000 I hate that guy.

00:47:13.000 And it's just one of those things where, as a politician, I'm sure he's a lovely man.

00:47:18.000 I love the way he compliments buxom statues that he has.

00:47:21.000 He likes to say that a lot too.

00:47:22.000 So remember all this me too stuff where he was like fondling an award.

00:47:27.000 I think was he fondling his Emmy?

00:47:28.000 Is that what he was fondling?

00:47:30.000 It seems like he was fondling a lot.

00:47:31.000 I'm not, you know, I'm not entirely sure.

00:47:33.000 But yeah, for a guy that was put out there that much by the Democrat Party and then to get me too essentially, says, says all you probably have to know.

00:47:41.000 So it's sad, though, that we can't learn some of these lessons, but I'll tell you what we can do is we can hold up some of these places as an example.

00:47:50.000 And it's helpful because we're talking a lot this week about Trump trying to federalize law enforcement for DC.

00:47:56.000 And then I saw a blaring headline that, oh, he could come for LA next as an LA resident.

00:48:02.000 Good.

00:48:02.000 Please, Mr. President, get over here.

00:48:05.000 I need your help.

00:48:06.000 It'd be very nice if I could take my family to some of the areas I used to be able to go to when I was a kid around here.

00:48:12.000 Yeah.

00:48:12.000 So what is the outrage around that?

00:48:14.000 I mean, do you think that any of these Democrats that actually live in DC and are afraid of getting mugged or carjacked on a daily basis, do any of them really think it's a bad idea to actually do something about the crime in D.C.?

00:48:25.000 I know they point to like statistics and it's like all statistics.

00:48:28.000 Like it's not a statistic if you stop reporting the crimes because you know nothing's going to happen or if you're told not to report the crimes or if you change the way you know, no, no, no, well, to, you know, worry about, you know, attempted murder, like the guy has to really actually almost be dead as opposed to getting shot at multiple times and yada, yada, yada.

00:48:46.000 I mean, it seems like the crime stats themselves, if you really look at it, haven't changed, just the way they report them has changed, which allows them to come up with this notion that it's a super safe city, even though no one actually believes that.

00:48:57.000 Yeah, I think that you identify one of the tricks and I lay out how they do this in breaking the law.

00:49:03.000 And so again, thank you so much for the ability to plug it.

00:49:06.000 Don, it means a lot.

00:49:07.000 But the, I walked through how that's part of the reason why you have so much chaos is that for them to enforce the law would necessitate an uptick in crime stats.

00:49:15.000 And when you're in a single party state, you don't want that to happen because it just broadcasts to the rest of the city that you're incompetent.

00:49:22.000 So you might feel like that's a necessary evil if you've a political party who's who's confronting you on it, but there's no relevant opposition party in a lot of these cities where this is happening.

00:49:32.000 So they're single party cities.

00:49:34.000 So they basically are better off politically because their power matters more than your safety.

00:49:38.000 Their power matters more than the safety of your families.

00:49:41.000 So they're better off just not enforcing or reporting crimes.

00:49:45.000 I mean, that's the trick that they're doing.

00:49:47.000 And that's going to continue.

00:49:48.000 That's not going to stop.

00:49:49.000 But I think really my theory on why Democrats will not go along with good ideas if Donald Trump has them is cognitive dissonance.

00:49:58.000 They feel like he's wrong and I'm right.

00:50:01.000 I'm smart. 1.00

00:50:02.000 He's dumb. 1.00

00:50:04.000 I'm moral. 1.00

00:50:04.000 He's immoral. 1.00

00:50:06.000 And so there's no way that he can just come in and come up with some great idea that we could have tried 10, 20, 30 years ago and didn't and be correct about it.

00:50:16.000 They will not allow that to happen rationally.

00:50:19.000 And you can watch them work it out on CNN and MSNBC every night.

00:50:22.000 Yeah, I mean, it sort of feels like their argument about gerrymandering down in Texas where they're all up in arms, but I'm like, they didn't seem to have a problem with Massachusetts or the numerous other states where there's almost no representation because they gerrymandered the hell out of these areas where you take a major thing and you take all of the farmland and we're just going to add it in here, even though it has nothing to do and it's not contiguous.

00:50:44.000 You see some of these maps of these congressional districts and you say, how is it even possible?

00:50:50.000 And yet, if Texas does something that could even appear to be that, even if it's clearly to me, far less flagrant than anything they've done for the last few decades, now it's an outrage cycle and they just refuse to talk about what they themselves have done for that long.

00:51:05.000 Yeah, I think so.

00:51:06.000 And I think that this is a real something that I would like to be a part of the solution here, but it's so hard in the online world.

00:51:14.000 I noticed this after the Iran bombing, where a lot of my favorite people said this is going to be the beginning of World War III. 0.97

00:51:22.000 And I feel like I'm a student of Donald Trump's foreign policy, which I think got an A first administration, despite all the headwinds on foreign policy.

00:51:31.000 And I think I know where he operates.

00:51:32.000 He waited for Israel to soften the belly.

00:51:34.000 He comes in in the middle of the night, executes a perfect mission.

00:51:38.000 He takes some major nuclear capabilities offline.

00:51:42.000 He flies plane back home and everyone should pop some champagne.

00:51:45.000 And that's it.

00:51:46.000 There was no World War III.

00:51:48.000 And yet you still saw some of my favorite people online say, oh, actually, I got it right when I warned it was going to be World War III.

00:51:55.000 No, you didn't.

00:51:56.000 You airballed it.

00:51:57.000 Like, that was terrible.

00:51:58.000 Like, that was a complete brick.

00:51:59.000 You threw it off the backboard.

00:52:00.000 Didn't even hit the rib.

00:52:01.000 It's like, why announce that it was, you got it right?

00:52:04.000 Just say that that one wasn't right.

00:52:06.000 And then just move on.

00:52:06.000 But we can't do that now because it's all about declarative statement.

00:52:10.000 You got to be right all the time.

00:52:11.000 You got to act like you have all the answers or else you can't have enough online clout.

00:52:14.000 We do got to get past that a little bit because it's just not real.

00:52:17.000 And so it's not healthy.
