00:00:00.000 Rob, can you pull up this poll?
00:00:01.960 You just had it.
00:00:02.660 You had one of the tweets of showing which type of kids.
00:00:09.360 Do you know which one I'm talking about, Rob?
00:00:11.320 Which political party deals with the most amount of mental illness?
00:00:15.660 Have you seen this? 0.87
00:00:16.480 No.
00:00:16.960 Have you seen this, Vinny?
00:00:17.680 No, we can imagine.
00:00:18.380 Check this out.
00:00:18.760 So make it bigger, Rob, so we can kind of show it to the audience.
00:00:21.540 Watch this.
00:00:22.740 Percentage of younger people diagnosed with a mental health problem whites under the age of 40.
00:00:29.340 What?
00:00:29.700 Look at that. 56% of kids under the age of whites under 40 who are strong Democrats, 41% of those that are weak Democrats, 35% of independents, 30% of weak Republicans, and 50% of strong Democrats.
00:00:49.240 We found the cure. We found the cure to mental health. 0.52
00:00:52.260 It is.
00:00:53.380 How do you process this information, Tom, when you read it?
00:00:56.120 I'd like to thank you all for being here today. We'll be back Wednesday.
00:00:58.780 I'd like to end on a high note.
00:01:00.900 How do I process this?
00:01:02.200 How do you process this?
00:01:02.980 I'll tell you how I process this.
00:01:05.080 I process on a processing line and on a logic line.
00:01:11.480 So logic and emotion.
00:01:13.240 You could draw the line of logic from strong Republican to emotion on strong Democrat.
00:01:19.040 You could.
00:01:19.520 You could draw it that way.
00:01:20.920 And I also believe you could do processing, willingness to process.
00:01:26.100 So close-minded.
00:01:27.240 I think if you do close-minded versus open-minded, you know what I mean, Pat?
00:01:31.400 Like willing to debate, willing to process.
00:01:33.540 Hey, look, I'm open enough minded to listen to your point.
00:01:36.320 You may not move me, but I'm willing to listen to your point.
00:01:39.100 Who says that?
00:01:40.080 Strong Republican or strong Democrat?
00:01:42.240 No, the strong Republican says that.
00:01:44.300 Willing to debate, willing to be open.
00:01:46.120 Strong Democrat says, no, you're wrong.
00:01:48.260 You should be canceled and shut down.
00:01:51.960 So this lines up with me, and I think it lines right up with the logic and emotion line,
00:01:56.800 And it lines right up with a willing to process, not willing to process.
00:02:00.660 And guess what?
00:02:01.580 Unwilling to process, close-minded, and unwilling to debate, and you end up in your own anger.
00:02:08.160 Guess what you have? 0.71
00:02:09.080 You have these screaming middle-aged white women that we've seen in videos going, what is her problem and what is going on? 1.00
00:02:15.960 I think there's a major correlation here between what people use as their identity.
00:02:21.060 If you looked at strong Democrats, they identify with material things like gender identity, their sexual orientation, all these things.
00:02:27.780 You go down the list, you get to strong Republican, and their identity comes from faith.
00:02:32.280 I've suffered from mental health issues.
00:02:34.260 I've suffered from all types of stuff, and faith was the one thing that saved me.
00:02:37.640 And I guarantee you, if you looked at that 15% strong Republican, the reason that it's so low, comparatively, is because they have something to root them.
00:02:44.260 What a great point.
00:02:45.420 What a great point, Vinny.
00:02:46.200 I agree 100%.
00:02:47.120 And if you think about it, you don't get to 56% by accident
00:02:50.320 when you raise a generation inside of a system that leads one way from top to bottom.
00:02:54.960 Think about it.
00:02:55.480 And you mentioned this multiple times, Pat.
00:02:57.700 The schools, the colleges, the professors,
00:02:59.800 they're all pushing that woke agenda nonsense.
00:03:03.280 It's hate.
00:03:03.720 It's anger from the media, from all the fears, from all the crisis,
00:03:07.540 from social media, from the gender stuff and everything.
00:03:11.660 Fake news and all that stuff, that's them.
00:03:13.680 When I was on Pierce Paddy, I did that thing about before and after these people that have Trump derangement syndrome.
00:03:19.160 And I tell people they just had everybody and Trump, love them or hate them, however you feel, you have to admit what he did to the system, made people go absolutely nuts.
00:03:30.220 And I connected a guy yesterday and I told him there should be a class action lawsuit.
00:03:34.680 And I'm not being funny at all for what they did to people's brains.
00:03:38.140 Because, bro, TDS is an actual thing where psychiatry.
00:03:41.260 I agree with you, Vinny.
00:03:42.840 Like, shouldn't they all get together and say, hey, you lied.
00:03:45.720 And mind you, if Trump, Adam, if Trump is out there, you thank God came out of it, right?
00:03:50.160 If Trump is out there and he's made, what, I think 60 or 70 million suing, whoever he sued, all these major networks, because they lied, if you've ruined somebody's brain where they turned into a call veal and they're like, everybody, if that has happened to you, I think you should get a class action, get a lawyer and go and sue them.
00:04:08.400 So that goes to the diagnosed with mental health problems.
00:04:10.800 That's what it is.
00:04:11.500 you don't talk to anybody you're in your bubble you know your parents are just jamming drugs 0.97
00:04:15.840 down your throat you don't have any faith in you you believe in ritalin yeah what is a woman if 0.53
00:04:20.400 that's that's where you're at this chart is by the this is by the data is by the u.s general
00:04:24.900 social survey this isn't some rinky dink survey this is legitimate and i think it's it's just a
00:04:30.680 a testament an example of what these people are just brainwashing you with when you're falling
00:04:36.240 for it i did a study on mass psychosis i don't know if you guys know the ash experiment and
00:04:40.260 milgram experiment back in the day two very unique experiments to see how people could harm people in
00:04:45.000 their own circle one of them was the one where they literally put people into shock people and
00:04:50.660 authorities telling them to the other one was about conformity the ash conformity experiment
00:04:54.740 where you had lines and people would literally deny what they saw with their own eyes because
00:04:58.800 everyone else said these lines line up yeah we're seeing that today with the democratic party uh i
00:05:03.660 did a social experiment where i had people come in they thought they were on a tv show they thought
00:05:07.740 that they were there to cancel somebody they had the choice there were two other judges there were
00:05:11.980 social media influencers everyone was an actor except for them they thought it was live tv
00:05:15.900 and we had a guy in the other room who had apparently wrote a book about affirmative
00:05:20.300 action was a lawyer and because of the social pressure every single person voted to cancel
00:05:25.700 that person for his book and ruin his life we made it harder because i wanted to see if humanizing
00:05:30.480 people would work we brought people into the room to meet him accidentally yes or like in the way
00:05:35.640 And then we came in, we said, oh, you weren't supposed to meet.
00:05:38.040 But while they were in the room, the lawyer, the fake lawyer, said, my daughter has leukemia.
00:05:42.380 I wrote this book to take care of her.
00:05:44.260 They still canceled it.
00:05:45.140 Oh, my God.
00:05:45.920 When you want to understand, only one person was not willing to cancel him, and he had an emotional breakdown.
00:05:50.500 When you want to understand how deep this is, I sat there watching, almost in tears, as I watched people proudly destroy someone's life whose daughter they believed had leukemia and needed this treatment.
00:06:02.080 They did not care because he wrote a book on affirmative action.
00:06:04.580 So this is, you're literally right when you say it's mass psychosis.
00:06:07.760 I think it is.
00:06:08.380 I truly, truly think it is.
00:06:10.600 And it all started with Trump's victory.
00:06:12.540 You're asking the question, what's the biggest difference between this chart,
00:06:16.420 between a far left Democrat and a far.
00:06:18.840 It's a regular Republican.
00:06:20.540 I mean, there's a couple of things at the foundation.
00:06:23.020 One believes in equality.
00:06:25.720 One believes in equity.
00:06:27.200 The foundation right there.
00:06:28.520 One wants control.
00:06:30.160 One wants freedom.
00:06:31.560 Liberty, right?
00:06:32.560 Remember the speech that the new face of the Democratic Party, Zoran Mamdani, gave when he was sworn in?
00:06:40.460 He says, we're going to replace rugged individualism with the warmth blanket of collectivism, a.k.a. Marxism, a.k.a. communism, a.k.a. we're going to seize the means of production.
00:06:54.400 Manufacture the fracture.
00:06:55.140 Manufacture the fracture.
00:06:56.400 What's going on here?
00:06:57.680 Tom hit the nail on the head with emotions.
00:07:00.400 You know, facts don't care about your feelings.
00:07:02.220 You talk about not having God, atheism, anti-God.
00:07:06.080 All of it leads to a point where they're going insane.
00:07:09.100 And then you have just people with common sense being like, I don't like what's going on here.
00:07:13.480 And they say something about it that I didn't get a chance to say.
00:07:16.520 Remember that video that you just played about Karina Maria Machado?
00:07:21.240 And I go, is that in Venezuela?
00:07:23.340 Oh, it's in Spain.
00:07:24.620 I don't know if you can pull that up, just the tagline.
00:07:26.680 They said, all right-wing people need to realize what's going on.
00:07:31.760 no common sense people because you don't need to people ask you are you republican i'm a common
00:07:39.200 sense bro if i see the republicans go off the richter scale i'll go back to the left but at
00:07:44.520 this point here it is let me tell you though the left is so insane how can you endorse i i get it
00:07:49.260 but to me that entire chart go back to that chart rob and i want to play another clip that tom you
00:07:54.240 you're probably not expecting me to play this clip but i want to get your reaction to it
00:07:57.480 the only difference here is which one of these guys you think goes to church the most the strong
00:08:04.440 republican the strong republican of course kids who go dude we're on a flight like listen my boys
00:08:12.200 their faith we're in the car and vinnie will say stuff and dylan will and that's what happened
00:08:17.340 and then and then tico and danza they go they go to to school and and you know and and they're
00:08:23.280 heavily involved in it but i will tell you we're on the flight i i wish you were on this flight just
00:08:27.440 to experience this with us we're on the flight we're traveling we're 47 years old this is top
00:08:34.720 five worst flight of my lifetime the pilot is deciding in terrible weather with strong winds

00:08:48.040 okay cowboy this guy's like hey we're gonna go do it that's right and me and vinnie are sitting
00:08:52.840 there in the back playing cards
00:08:54.820 very calm.
00:08:56.660 We're like this, okay?
00:08:59.020 And Dylan is just sitting there.
00:09:00.980 Tico's talking to us. Senna's playing a
00:09:02.860 joke with Vinny. Vinny's like, hey, see you
00:09:04.840 in heaven. Not the types 1.00
00:09:06.800 of jokes you're supposed to say.
00:09:08.240 They haven't been briefed on it yet. They got briefed afterwards.
00:09:11.420 And then we land
00:09:12.300 and we're talking to Dylan. We're like, Dylan,
00:09:14.600 you weren't scared at all? No.
00:09:16.600 Why not? What's the worst thing that's going to happen?
00:09:18.880 I'm going to meet Jesus.
00:09:20.440 By the way, he says this
00:09:21.900 reaction like this reaction like this i didn't have that as a kid yeah like this faith plays
00:09:31.240 a massive massive role in mental health problems because for you no matter what you're going
00:09:40.520 throughout a conversation late last night with somebody that just this is an area they really
00:09:45.400 have a hard time with it's a family member and and and i'm on the phone i'm like
00:09:50.520 i said you got to figure out a way to get close because everything to you is the end of the world
00:09:56.880 and everything is crisis you don't even know it every time you call i told this person this last
00:10:03.080 night every time you call your name is on the phone what feeling you think you provide to the
00:10:09.480 other people that's seeing you when you call them whether you know it or not whoever you call and
00:10:14.880 whoever calls you produce a feeling when you see their name on the phone oh yeah i said you know
00:10:19.140 what feeling you provide when you call what this person said what i said anxiety oh man every single
00:10:24.860 time i say you do that to everybody you don't even know it you don't even know it every time your name
00:10:30.600 is on the phone is anxiety i know 50 of bad news is going to be delivered why faith is not in that
00:10:38.480 person's life they're not going in thinking that the future looks bright because the whole what's
00:10:43.940 the whole kind like what is the backbone of future looks bright like we talk about future looks
00:10:47.560 bright. They're just selling hats and shirts and all this stuff. Do you really want to know
00:10:52.100 the, why do you think, why do you think the whole FLB brand can sell a hat that says faith over
00:10:58.540 fear? Why? Because future looks bright, looks bright because we have faith over fear. Like the
00:11:06.100 whole concept is faith. If you don't have faith, how do you know the future looks bright? You tell
00:11:13.400 me where the concept of future looks bright comes from if you don't have faith how do you know you
00:11:18.300 don't know well why are you so optimistic i just got faith what i'm going to tell you i i just i
00:11:24.720 just feel everything's going to work out so i i do believe that you know as you look at that chart
00:11:29.680 and jonathan hyatt if you haven't yet read his book anxious generation i've been recommended
00:11:34.440 this book for two years parents do yourself a favor and go look at it
