00:00:00.000 This is Anderson Cooper.
00:00:01.000 I mean, just a very embarrassing moment for him in his career.
00:00:03.440 How do you mess this thing up?
00:00:04.440 How do you not know?
00:00:05.620 How does somebody as professional and being a Vanderbilt as yourself not know to properly introduce this young they them by the proper pronouns?
00:00:13.960 How do you not do that as a professional?
00:00:15.580 Rob, go ahead and play this clip, please.
00:00:17.020 Go ahead.
00:00:17.280 Paul, we're back with Senator Bernie Sanders.
00:00:20.020 I want to introduce Grace Thomas.
00:00:21.460 She's a local civil rights attorney. 0.93
00:00:22.800 She's a Democrat.
00:00:23.560 Grace?
00:00:24.300 It's they them pronouns, actually.
00:00:25.600 Thank you.
00:00:25.960 Oh.
00:00:27.460 Good evening, Senator Sanders.
00:00:29.740 Polling and turnout data indicate that men of all racial demographics are turning away from the Democratic Party.
00:00:35.580 But of course.
00:00:36.840 Play that one more time, Rob.
00:00:38.460 Just one more time.
00:00:40.280 We're back with Senator Bernie Sanders.
00:00:42.720 I want to introduce Grace Thomas.
00:00:44.180 She's a local civil rights attorney. 0.93
00:00:45.520 She's a Democrat, right?
00:00:47.020 It's they them pronouns, actually.
00:00:48.320 Thank you.
00:00:48.680 Oh.
00:00:50.360 Good evening, Senator Sanders.
00:00:52.480 Polling and turnout data indicate that men of all racial demographics are turning away from the Democratic Party.
00:00:56.600 You know what I've done right then and there?
00:00:57.700 I'm like, no, no, no.
00:00:58.460 Time out.
00:00:59.040 No, we're not doing that.
00:01:00.240 Next person.
00:01:01.260 I'm not playing that game.
00:01:02.440 Look at Bernie's face.
00:01:03.220 Yeah, Bernie.
00:01:03.700 Look at Bernie.
00:01:04.480 He has no idea what's happening.
00:01:06.580 She said they.
00:01:07.820 He only sees one.
00:01:08.840 He's trying to find.
00:01:09.580 Yeah.
00:01:09.820 How do I.
00:01:11.020 What do I call it?
00:01:12.020 Whenever I use the pronouns them, I'm talking about all of my beach houses.
00:01:16.740 Yeah.
00:01:17.240 Yeah.
00:01:18.600 That's the face.
00:01:19.320 Those are the Dems I'm talking about.
00:01:21.160 I am a socialist.
00:01:22.440 Look how shocked.
00:01:23.120 Like, look how confused.
00:01:24.460 He's looking for more people inside.
00:01:26.600 Like, he doesn't know what the hell is going on.
00:01:28.780 And the fact that, oh, if I'm telling you right now, Anderson Cooper should have said,
00:01:31.740 excuse me, ma'am, ma'am, you, we're not playing that game.
00:01:35.320 You're a girl.
00:01:36.580 Answer. 1.00
00:01:36.960 Ask the damn question. 1.00
00:01:38.420 Like, the fact that they're still, still to this day. 1.00
00:01:40.920 Like, what do you.
00:01:41.520 Be the end of his job.
00:01:42.240 It sounds like he sat on an ice cube.
00:01:44.660 Oh, yeah.
00:01:45.400 Oh, oh, oh.
00:01:46.560 No, it's like, give me a freak. 0.88
00:01:47.760 And again, that's why this freaking party is going to be doomed for the longest time, bro. 0.93
00:01:52.280 That is it. 0.80
00:01:53.060 That's the clip right there to show you where they still are.
00:01:55.940 They're not breaking.
00:01:56.520 They're not deviating.
00:01:57.620 They, them.
00:01:58.160 I would have been like, no, no, no.
00:01:59.140 We're not. 0.99
00:01:59.680 Who the hell are you? 0.99
00:02:00.680 What's your name? 0.99
00:02:01.180 You're one person.
00:02:01.980 Next.
00:02:02.620 Move on. 0.98
00:02:03.300 It's ridiculous. 0.98
00:02:04.180 Do you know what it is, though? 0.96
00:02:04.980 Like, for a CNN, there's been speculation.
00:02:10.140 The company's probably worked somewhere between one and a half to two.
00:02:12.240 Two billion dollars.
00:02:13.700 And Zucker tried to raise some money a couple of years ago to be able to buy it for five
00:02:17.020 or six billion dollars.
00:02:17.900 Tom, we've talked about this before.
00:02:19.540 Yeah.
00:02:19.800 Jeff Zucker, not Mark.
00:02:20.980 No, no.
00:02:21.460 Jeff Zucker, not Mark Zuckerberg.
00:02:23.380 Zucker, who was a former.
00:02:25.280 Who was he with them?
00:02:26.020 NBC.
00:02:26.540 He's a big guy.
00:02:27.140 Yeah.
00:02:27.660 So, you know, there's these conversations.
00:02:30.620 Until CNN doesn't get back to common sense with things like this, the rest of the logical
00:02:36.980 world is just not interested in watching them because it's an embarrassing thing that's
00:02:40.980 going on right now.
00:02:41.680 Even yesterday, Scott, what's his name?
00:02:45.420 Scott Jennings.
00:02:46.200 Scott Jennings.
00:02:47.120 He had a moment yesterday on CNN.
00:02:48.500 Did you see?
00:02:48.920 That's why he got fired.
00:02:49.980 Did you see what Scott Jennings got fired?
00:02:51.840 No, no, no, no, no.
00:02:52.780 He told.
00:02:54.180 Scott Jennings tells this later.
00:02:56.080 Is that what we got?
00:02:56.620 Fired.
00:02:57.020 Yeah.
00:02:57.140 Just type in.
00:02:57.740 You'll see.
00:02:58.900 That's the one right there.
00:02:59.800 Watch this clip, Rob.
00:03:00.740 Watch this clip, Vinny.
00:03:01.500 You cannot just go and say, I like it.
00:03:03.700 It's mine now.
00:03:04.500 It doesn't work that way.
00:03:05.600 We're not.
00:03:05.840 That is what they're trying to do.
00:03:07.320 And in this new world order.
00:03:08.860 Yeah, absolutely.
00:03:10.000 When they're looking at Greenland and say, I like it.
00:03:11.800 I want to take it for mine.
00:03:12.800 That is a very colonizing.
00:03:13.860 Scott, you are.
00:03:14.440 You have said you are strong.
00:03:15.700 I have never, ever said we're going to go to Greenland and, quote, colonize it or steal
00:03:19.940 it.
00:03:20.120 That's crazy.
00:03:20.340 You're not a member of government, so you're irrelevant at that point.
00:03:22.480 I'm talking about the president of the United States doing that.
00:03:24.280 You got fired from your job, Rob.
00:03:25.540 You can actually do that.
00:03:28.820 If you want to engage in personal insults, what you lack in the legitimate point, you
00:03:35.100 make up for in personal insults.
00:03:37.660 The point I am making is in this new world order, we are looking at countries, whether
00:03:42.540 or not they're an adversary or ally.
00:03:43.480 Who is she that got fired? 1.00
00:03:45.140 She's a sassy woman. 1.00
00:03:46.440 I know that. 0.99
00:03:46.960 She wants to hit him so bad. 0.90
00:03:48.340 Tiffany Cross is her name.
00:03:50.960 Rob, your mic's not working, buddy.
00:03:52.400 Tiffany Cross?
00:03:54.020 Can you hear me now?
00:03:54.640 Yours is not working.
00:03:55.880 She was the host of The Cross Connection on MSNBC.
00:04:00.420 When did she get fired? 1.00
00:04:01.880 It looks like 2022.
00:04:04.420 She really got fired in 2022? 0.99
00:04:07.360 It says MSNBC informed her production staff that her contract would not be renewed on November
00:04:13.540 4th, 2022.
00:04:14.660 So he's saying she got fired.
00:04:16.220 Yeah, I'm bad.
00:04:16.540 Yeah.
00:04:16.720 So until CNN kind of gets their stuff together and brings more people like Scott and they're
00:04:21.700 going more logic.
00:04:22.760 Their best talent right now is Scott Jennings.
00:04:24.680 I call him the CEO of the company.
00:04:25.980 He's running the company right now.
00:04:27.360 He owns the entire property.
00:04:28.420 And if they don't have that, nobody is watching CNN.
00:04:32.720 The only reason that show is one of the most popular shows is because they kind of let him
00:04:37.660 cook a little bit.
00:04:38.720 Even though they constantly tell him to shut up. 1.00
00:04:40.960 He is surrounded by freaking jackals. 1.00
00:04:43.960 The jackals. 1.00
00:04:44.780 You know what I mean?
00:04:45.160 That he's just the only one that's spitting the truth.
00:04:47.500 The woman who corrected Anderson Cooper on the they, them, that's not an anomaly. 1.00
00:04:52.800 That is sort of, that is built into the system at this point.
00:04:57.200 You're not going to reverse that overnight.
00:04:59.120 You know, there's a story here, Pat, if you don't mind, I can read this.
00:05:01.600 Go for it.
00:05:01.900 The Air Force pulls back on personal pronouns and emails.
00:05:06.060 The Air Force.
00:05:06.900 Vinny, I know you were in the Air Force.
00:05:10.800 So the U.S. Air Force is reversing its ban on including preferred pronouns in email signatures
00:05:15.540 and other professional communications.
00:05:17.420 So they've rescinded an earlier directive to cease the use of preferred pronouns, a.k.a.
00:05:24.780 he, him, she, her, they, them, our favorite thing, to identify one's gender and identifiable
00:05:29.420 communications.
00:05:30.360 So this is so baked into the cake already.
00:05:33.440 It's not just one-offs, right? 0.83
00:05:35.580 This is the Air Force that has they, them in their freaking emails.
00:05:39.940 I told you the story the one time when I'm in the back of an Uber and this guy picks
00:05:43.640 up, it's a Ford F-150.
00:05:45.960 The back of an Uber.
00:05:47.420 And I'm leaving actually CPAC of all places and there's this dude, I'm talking a man's
00:05:52.420 man and I'm looking at the app and I'm like, okay, Bill and a Ford F-150, he, him?
00:05:58.800 Okay.
00:05:59.820 So I'm sitting in the back of he, him's car and I go, hey, Bill, I gotta, I just gotta ask
00:06:04.020 you a question, dude.
00:06:05.960 Did you want to put the he, him in there or is that, do they make you do that?
00:06:11.340 He goes, look, man, I'm just filling out the, the data and that's, I had to put it in
00:06:17.400 the Dropbox and I, I went with he, him.
00:06:20.380 I didn't have a choice.
00:06:21.240 I go, if you could reverse that, would you?
00:06:24.240 And he's like, you record me right now, buddy?
00:06:27.700 I was like, nah, just me and you.
00:06:28.840 He goes, he, him. 1.00
00:06:31.260 Like, I want that bullshit. 1.00
00:06:32.400 Like, it just, he had to check it. 1.00
00:06:35.380 He was the Uber driver.
00:06:36.700 He had to check it in order to basically sign up for Uber in this case.
00:06:40.580 So that's what I'm saying.
00:06:41.540 It's so big, baked into the cake that one-off lady criticizing Anderson Cooper, companies 1.00
00:06:47.060 infuse that.
00:06:47.880 Now we're starting to see companies basically reduce their DEI, reduce their ESG, but it's
00:06:53.340 going to take a while.
00:06:54.120 It's not going to happen overnight.
00:06:55.020 Did you hear about the military?
00:06:55.600 Did you hear about the military?
00:06:57.200 I think she was like a NATO colonel or somebody.
00:07:00.880 She refused to put Trump and, uh, what's his name's, uh, JD Vance's photo up.
00:07:06.340 They relieved her of her duty.
00:07:08.020 They're like, you're not going to put the photo of the president out.
00:07:11.320 We want to have a million people wearing the future looks bright gear.
00:07:14.400 So this is some of you that buy future looks bright gear and the numbered ones.
00:07:18.120 And some of you that go and put it on eBay.
00:07:19.800 Look at this.
00:07:20.200 400 bucks.
00:07:20.760 One out of 50, one 99.
00:07:22.060 That's me on the left, man.
00:07:24.120 Can you go to the user one?
00:07:25.860 Hat number one.
00:07:26.980 10 grand.
00:07:28.640 Is that one out of two 50?
00:07:30.160 Yes.
00:07:30.560 But he got the one out of two 50.
00:07:32.560 That's good for him.
00:07:33.460 What's the user's name?
00:07:34.440 Can we see?
00:07:35.460 What is the user's name?
00:07:36.740 Rob Gargiulo.
00:07:37.760 No, it's not.
00:07:40.100 Okay.
00:07:40.600 Go back.
00:07:41.200 Zone service.
00:07:42.160 10 grand.
00:07:42.700 Go back one, Rob, to see what else is up there.
00:07:44.480 Rob, that would have been so funny.
00:07:45.560 Go back if you can, Rob.
00:07:46.920 Okay.
00:07:47.180 They go lower.
00:07:48.040 So that's another one numbered.
00:07:49.360 Another one, the 45, 47 number.
00:07:51.260 Keep going lower.
00:07:52.560 More of them numbered that are selling.
00:07:54.160 $3,000.
00:07:54.400 Holy moly.
00:07:55.000 That's a 43 out of 50.
00:07:56.680 Okay.
00:07:57.100 So here's what we're doing today.
00:07:59.800 This one took us a while to get, and I'll explain to you why.
00:08:03.420 This is the box, value tainment.
00:08:06.120 If you order this hat, when you open it up, the box right there, you see the future looks
00:08:12.040 bright in gold, and then there's a card in there from me to you, and this hat took a while
00:08:19.120 to make for one specific reason.
00:08:21.360 So this is a number at a 250, okay?
00:08:26.760 And this says future looks bright, and all of it is embroidered.
00:08:30.180 This is not like a wing job.
00:08:32.140 All of it says future looks bright all around the hat.
00:08:35.800 Black, sick hat that just got launched this morning, numbered at a 250, at 99.
00:08:42.640 Get on it. 0.72
00:08:43.020 First come, first serve.
00:08:43.960 Just so you know, you know how this works.
00:08:46.500 These go like hotcakes.
00:08:49.020 In no time, this goes.
00:08:50.380 So within 30 minutes, this will be gone.
00:08:52.020 But if you're one of the people that collects these numbered hats, we will not be doing this
00:08:56.260 one again, specifically with this color, black and white future looks bright, numbered at
00:09:01.500 a 1 out of 250.
00:09:02.380 Go to vtmerish.com, place your order.
00:09:04.720 By the way, look at this, Vinny.
00:09:06.280 Even down here, like the way it is.
00:09:07.940 Like if I bought one right now, so somebody's going to get the number one right now.
00:09:10.900 Someone's going to get the number one.
00:09:13.200 But anyway, that'll be in the box.
00:09:14.980 With the box the whole night.
00:09:16.220 Now when we get the shipments with future looks bright, you know what's coming in.
00:09:19.180 Just to know that it's coming strictly from us.
00:09:22.000 Go to vtmerish.com, place your order.
