	Get ready to hear the truth about America on a show that's not immune to the facts with your host, Dan Bongino.
	It's a little different today.
	In the great Steven Crowder studio.
	Look at this place.
	Like a legit studio.
	We got brick walls and shit like that.
	Look at this stuff.
	Got a fireplace.
	Is that a real fire?
	Roast some freaking marshmallow.
	Get some s'mores in here.
	And by the way, I look really nice too.
	Well, I don't mean in that way.
	I mean, obviously I got a face for radio.
	But Kim, the makeup artist, she's like a professional.
	I usually do my own makeup.
	That's why I look like shit every day.
	But look at this.
	Not no shine, no blemishes with this face.
	It's all like blending in nice.
	Folks, I want to thank first the Crowder team.
	I'm in his studio today.
	He's been kind enough to have us.
	I got Steve.
	I'm going to bring him in in a minute.
	But it's going to be a stacked show, man.
	I'm super excited.
	We're going to cover this election.
	We're going to cover some self-defense stuff so you don't get whacked out in the street.
	We're going to cover the police state and their monster breaking news story.
	By the way, I want to acknowledge the team.
	The Crowder team broke.
	In case you forgot that in cable news with the manifesto that they were hiding.
	And we'll cover some more stuff, so don't go anywhere.
	MyPillow!
	They're soft and absorbent, 100%.

	Click on the radio podcast specials or call 1-800- 637-4982.
	So, we're in the Crowder studio today.
	Traveled out to Dallas.
	Got a book signing here tomorrow in Grapevine Mills Mall.
	Hope to see you all there.
	We've been packing the house with these things for my new book, The Gift of Failure.
	That is tomorrow at 2 p.m.
	local time, Grapevine, Texas.
	Hope to see you out there.
	Let's get this party started, man.
	So the first thing I want to cover is election 2024 because I know how I feel about it.
	You all know my take.
	But there's a guy who's been around this space a lot longer than me.
	You may know who he is because his name is on the freaking wall behind me and I'm still in his studio right now.
	By the way, we're streaming on both channels, ours and theirs.
	I want to welcome into the show, in his own studio, the legend...
	F'n Steven Crowder, good to see you, brother, with your strange animal shirt on.
	I love how you said shit like five times, but then said F'n.
	I know.
	It's a fucking...
	But I don't think...
	Yeah, I know.
	We can say fuck, too.
	You can say whatever you want.
	You can say we're crossing the stream, so we're breaking all the rules today.
	There's no FCC. But you...
	No, you look good.
	Cancer looks good on you.
	You like that?
	I told you, it was like some fertilizer.
	It's like chemo.
	Yes.
	Don't you think?
	It's just metastasized.
	That's the greatest opening line.
	Metastasized handsome.
	Dude, you're so fucked up.
	Is that the best line?
	Cancer looks good.
	That was the first thing I said.
	Because it's like, I have to.
	Because it's like, if you don't laugh, you know, you'll cry.
	Or you'll shrivel and lose all your hair.
	The worst thing ever.
	This is like, not to be macabre like this.
	I told you, this is why I'm giving these guys elements before the show.
	I'm like, fuck the elements.
	We're never even going to get to anything.
	Macabre?
	Who are you?
	Vincent Price?
	Not to be macabre.
	I took an SAT course.
	It's the only word I remembered.
	I've got to pretend I'm somewhat sad.
	No, but you've been doing this.
	I mean, you've been around for a long time.
	I appreciate it.
	I'm glad you're here and you're one of the few guys who has the balls to send people over to Rumble and not play the big tech game.
	Yeah, fuck that.
	I quit those motherfuckers over at YouTube.
	And the funny thing is...
	Is this directed by Scorsese?
	Is he going to be standing above me?
	I know, I'm going to get so many complaints.
	My daughter answers emails for us and stuff and she always gets complaints.
	I know, I'm trying, folks.
	It's the queens of me and I'm here with Steve.
	We go way back.
	I was telling a story with you before.
	I had met you at It's CPAC like 12 years ago when you were emceeing.
	And I don't think people realize, man, you've been in this business a long, long time.
	You've seen the entertainment business from the other side.
	It's a pretty effed up business.
	I remember that year.
	I remember that year because I was immediately called to the Fox News second floor.
	With the VPs.
	And they were going, you made this joke, you can't say that.
	You made this joke, you can't say that.
	You outed Anderson Cooper as gay.
	That was before he was out as gay.
	And I said that he was like Gomer Pyle, I think playing doctor with Rock Hudson.
	And something like that.
	Like something that implied he was gay.
	And they were like, you can't do that because we all have to go to parties with him.
	I'm like, I don't.
	What does it matter?
	And now he's out.
	He lives in a firehouse with his ex-husband.
	You're smart though, man.
	You did what I did.
	You kind of roll your own way, man.
	Having a boss sucks.
	Because when you work for yourself, you can only complain to yourself.
	I'm HR. So when I get some shit to say, I just gotta say it to myself.
	How Italian are you?
	What percentage?
	50%.
	Is a Sicilian in there?
	Of course.
	Oh, okay.
	So your forefathers were probably slaves, right?
	The Moors were being kidnapped.
	The other half is Irish and German.
	So why do you look partially black?
	I don't know, but I get that a lot.
	There was this thing on Wikipedia.
	I told you.
	I'm sorry.
	Let's talk swing stage.
	Let's talk swing stage with the biracial Sicilian.
	He gives me this big rundown.
	He's like, what order are we going to go?
	No order!
	Because it's Crowder.
	No, this is your show.
	This is your show.
	No, no, no.
	You let me your studio.
	We're going to stay for your thing, too.
	Of course, your show.
	But I get that a lot.
	Years ago, there was this list out on Wikipedia of prominent black conservatives.
	And I was like, number four.
	And I'm like...
	But then I was in a weird spot because I'm like, I don't want to pretend I'm denial.
	I'm like, I'm afraid of it.
	But then I don't want to be culturally appropriating either.
	So I said to my crew, I'm like, what do we do about this?
	They're like, nothing, bro.
	You just don't say anything.
	Whatever.
	No, I'm Italian, man.
	You just drop some end bombs every now and then in a rap track and a new SoundCloud track.
	And people are like, oh, I guess he is.
	I'm fine.
	Wait, wait.
	I want to ask you about that.
	Because you know you and I are obsessed with this cancel culture thing.
	It's why we're on Rumble.
	We respect free expression and all.
	And you've been talking out about this shit forever, especially the culture wars, right?
	But I said to Chris at Rumble, the CEO once, your thoughts on this before we get to the election stuff.
	I think that's when cancel culture dies.
	When they come for rap music.
	You're talking about, Steve, billions of dollars in intellectual capital.
	I mean, they're selling music libraries.
	I saw what Billy Joel sold this for like 400 million.
	Can you imagine if you're like NWA? That library's worth a fortune and it gets canceled.
	How much did Billy Joel sell for?
	I think it was like, was it Billy Joel or Elton John, but $400.
	For a place up in Hackensack, is that all you get for your money?
	And look, he's the piano man.
	And look, I mean, Taylor Swift, that thing with the scooter cat, like that's a billion dollar library.
	I know.
	Imagine when the entire rap arena, they start looking back and you're like, you know, talking about bees and hoes and all that.
	When that gets canceled, I think that's the end.
	Yeah, I think it's pretty tough.
	I mean, the problem with progressivism, for progressivism's sake, you're just moving forward, right?
	You're not necessarily moving in a direction with purpose.
	And so that's why you have, you know, gays for Hamas, basically, right now.
	Or you have people who have decided that, oh, you know, no, the black people, you know, like half of you.
	Who support Donald Trump.
	They're not real.
	You know, and so it depends on who's the most oppressed that day where none of it is a tenable position.
	You can't.
	You can't say misogyny and then also support hip-hop, you know, the hip-hop culture.
	You can't say, oh, hold on a second.
	We support Palestine and then have...
	I mean, you have Rashida Tlaib.
	She had literally a rainbow flag next to a Palestinian flag.
	She doesn't understand that people are thrown off rooftops.
	I mean, if her constituency went to Palestine...
	There's actual video of it.
	Yeah.
	Off the rooftop.
	It'd be raining men for like a week.
	It's the craziest show.
	By the way, have you ever sat in a guest in your own studio?
	I have.
	Like, when I injured my neck, I would sit here because it's tough for me to do that sometimes.
	And I'm very disruptive.
	So you can just tell me to shut up in your WAP tone.
	This is already...
	I've already got people like, what the fuck?
	Well, you know what, though?
	Just so people know, we are going to be multi-streaming this and then swap places.
	Dan will be in this chair when we do Ladder with Crowder.
	And I apologize in advance.
	It's a pretty crazy show.
	I can't wait to do your show.
	So it's going to be fun.
	All right, so let's get to this election because I want your take.
	I really haven't gotten your take on this so far.
	Let me play this first.
	This happened the other day.
	So Nikki Haley, Steve, my humble opinion.
	You're so Italian.
	Let me play this first.
	I know, I'm trying to make his accent.
	Let me play this.
	I've been out of New York, folks, seriously, for like almost 20 years.
	Once I get going with like one of my homies like this, it goes right back to like Savage Queen style.
	Here's my take on this first.
	So I love primaries.
	I think primaries are good things.
	I think they keep candidates frosty because you know what?
	What happens without primaries, you get no media attention and you're not used to getting your ass kicked and stuff.
	And then when you get into a general, you're soft.
	I like primaries.
	But I gotta tell you, I think this is the single dumbest effing idea I've seen out of the primary.
	Democrat or Republican?
	This is something with, like, reparations.
	This is Nikki Haley on a...
	You can say it, because you're half.
	This is so bad.
	This is Nikki Haley wants to basically dox the entire internet.
	Check this out.
	Every person on social media should be verified by their name.
	First of all, it's a national security threat.
	When you do that, all of a sudden people have to stand by what they say.
	And it gets rid of the Russian bots, the Iranian bots, and the Chinese bots.
	And then you're going to get some civility when people know their name is next to what they say.
	Accountability.
	And they know their pastor and their family member is going to see it.
	Dude!
	Yeah.
	What?
	I understand the principle, right?
	In other words, like, for example, a Senator Mullins the other day.
	That's very different.
	When someone calls you out, like the Teamsters, to say, hey, you know, you're a coward, I want to fight you.
	That's very different from someone just expressing an opinion.
	You don't assault someone for an opinion.
	But I think that people do get away with too much, like Mike Tyson said, right?
	There are too many anonymous people who are afraid of not getting punched in the mouth.
	So I get the spirit of it.
	But the idea, I mean, this would do away with investigative journalism, which YouTube already has.
	This would do away with whistleblowers.
	So I think she's trying to pander to the old GOP, like, tough guy thing.
	Like, yeah, I don't like that these kids are anonymous, but she doesn't understand the ramifications.
	Yeah.
	Or maybe she does, and she's just planning, you know, to work for another lobbying group with her exit.
	Think about, like, you and I over at Rumble.
	Like, we got people in my chat.
	Like, I got hardcore, like, chatsters who come in every day.
	Like, we got this McGroin crew.
	Yeah.
	Holding McGroin, shaking.
	Yeah.
	Aiken, feeling.
	No, no, they're real.
	Like, you'll see them pop in.
	I think everybody's confused.
	That's inappropriate.
	They're there.
	Like, you'll see them today.
	We wouldn't do that.
	What if they don't want people to know who the fuck they are?
	Like, say I work in a school and I don't want these kids knowing I'm a Trump supporter or the Santa's guy or whatever.
	It's none of your business.
	Like, why does the government need to know that shit?
	You and I be on a list like they want.
	Oh, of course.
	Oh, I'm already on a list.
	You especially.
	I've been on the ISIS kill list.
	Not just the ISIS kill list, but like the premium frequent flyer list.
	Frequent flyer list.
	I'm like, yeah, I'm like ISIS kill platinum.
	You're at the top of that?
	Yes, I am.
	Oh yeah, I got a call.
	Like in a Google search of people to kill, you're on the first date.
	Yes, I'm right there.
	I had people from...
	It's good, they'll come for you first.
	We're safe, Keith.
	We're going to cover it.
	Waste a lot of time on him.
	They're like, yeah, you're on the ISIS kill list.
	I'm like, what?
	They go, don't worry, everyone's on the ISIS kill list.
	I said, but the problem is you're on this other list, which they actually want to kill.
	I was like, all right.
	I was a goof.
	I did a goof on YouTube.
	But no, I think this is something that'll probably torpedo her campaign.
	I mean, obviously I'm not a big Nikki Haley fan.
	I think she's a decent person.
	But this isn't going to do her any favors.
	I understand the spirit.
	This is the problem with people who aren't in touch with their voter constituency, and this is why Donald Trump does so well.
	She thinks it's going to work with the old GOP, maybe like the Koch brothers people, the people who, you know, I really like the Republican Party, and we need to send more money to Ukraine.
	Those people will say, I don't like people being anonymous.
	I don't either.
	You and I both know, right, that you have no skin in the game.
	It's easy to be a fake tough guy.
	yeah that being said the consequences of removing anonymity it's uh i mean it would be well you roll like you actually do jits and stuff like i'm gonna i'm gonna get to this self-defense uh shit later but you you're like a like you can you can handle yourself you know like that's the thing like i'm a ham and egger when you were in when you were rolling in some of these jiu-jitsu places sorry i I promise I'll go back to the order eventually.
	They're like, give me the order to show.
	I'm like, eh, it's all fucked up already.
	But you've seen it before.
	I was telling a story the other day on my show.
	We had this 300-pound lineman.
	I don't know if he's from Hofstra or whatever.
	He came into Matt Serra's place.
	He's like, ah, this shit don't work.
	So Matt picks the smallest guy.
	This guy, I don't remember what his name was.
	Joey Bagadona.
	So the kid was like 120 pounds.
	And he's like, I want you to roll with this cat right here.
	But the guy's like, you know, I'll kick this guy.
	Give me the biggest guy.
	He goes, not only am I going to give you the small guy, You're going to start out on top, full mount.
	The guy's like, this ain't even fair, bro.
	I'm going to kill this kid.
	This guy was getting choked out, dude, in like 30 seconds.
	People have no idea how easy it is for another person to end your life.
	They have no idea.
	We would have people who come in and go, I'm a black belt, and my son, who's 14, is also a black belt.
	Oh, congratulations, your check cleared.
	It's not the same thing.
	No.
	We would say, go in and roll with our blue belt teenagers.
	And by the way, this applies to high school wrestlers, to guys who are in a good boxing gym, boxing club, actual combat sports.
	It's a good thing for a man, specifically, to get his ass kicked.
	It's a good thing for a man to fail a rep, right?
	So you realize, oh, there's a certain point where talk, where conjecture goes out the window.
	So there is definitely value in being...
	I understand that feeling from Nikki Haley, but as a matter of policy, it's functionally retarded, and that's putting it generously.
	I love how he brought the show right back to...
	You see that?
	He's a pro.
	Because I'm like crazy.
	Like, I had too much coffee already.
	I'm like all over.
	I'm ready to jump to like segment three.
	All right, I want to show you this first, because while we're on election 2024...
	You know, listen, you and I are in the content production business.
	We got to attract eyeballs and earlobes.
	That's just what we do.
	If you don't, and I think what I like most about what you and I do working for ourselves is if the show sucks, that's it.
	Like, we can't blame Fox.
	I can't blame Newsmax.
	It's you got to blame Steve and I got to blame Dan.
	Sometimes Guy will be like, you know what?
	That show is no good.
	And I'll look the next day and I'm like, bro, you're right.
	That show sucked.
	Like, you know, we lost 10% of our audience.
	But the thing is, that's politics.
	So you and I get this.
	I think nobody gets kind of the finger on the pulse of like the snapshots and soundbites game and politics better than Trump.
	And a lot of people dismiss shit like this when he walked into UFC. Play that cut.
	I want to show you your thoughts on this on the other side.
	How strong that team is.
	Making his way into the building.
	One of the bigger mixed martial arts fans.
	I know President Donald Trump.
	Taking his octagon side seat for UFC 295. Now listen, I don't want to oversell this thing.
	DeSantis a great guy.
	Best governor we ever had.
	Sure.
	You know, I like Vivek.
	A lot of shit he's talking about.
	But you know, I was a Trump guy early.
	And I think it's because...
	You've been in the Republican movement for a long time.
	These guys just totally do not understand the messaging thing on the establishment side at all.
	They don't get the Wheaties box shit.
	Bro, it's got to fit on a Wheaties box.
	This guy gets, that image is worth $5 million in free people.
	You know what?
	Also, here's the thing.
	It's genuine.
	He's been a fight fan for a long time.
	A lot of people don't realize, you know, when the UFC was struggling in the Dark Ages, they couldn't be on pay-per-view.
	They would do it at Taj Mahal.
	He's always been a boxing fan.
	I mean, he was honored by Muhammad Ali at his foundation, like, twice.
	They were very, very good friends.
	This is a guy who's always been a combat sports fan.
	So he's not showing up to, you know, like something gay, like a soccer game.
	You know, he's showing up to something he actually cares about.
	And by the way, he should also work with a lot of...
	There were some female fights on that.
	Yeah.
	Love watching the bitches fight!
	LAUGHTER Look, look, they still hit like girls.
	They still throw punches like softballs.
	That's what people say.
	But, but, you know, they're still, they're good looking when they fight.
	They tape it down, but I can still see great tits, great tits in that division.
	The only one I can do is Bernie.
	I can't do shit anywhere.
	I cannot do it.
	The millionaires and the billionaires.
	These motherfuckers.
	I can't believe these.
	And I, with Mark Wayne Mullany on that, Bernie Sanders is the peacemaker.
	You're a United States senator.
	Yeah.
	Sit your ass down.
	You are too, you phony.
	Put on some deodorant.
	And then when he gets really mad, it cracks.
	That's what we've always said.
	People used to get mad.
	My Bernie impression was not Gilbert Godfrey.
	They'd be like, you two are United States.
	They'd be like, son of a bitch!
	Stop acting like children!
	You filthy whore!
	He does, he gets like a little bit, but no, I think you're right about Donald Trump having his finger to the pulse with a lot of this.
	Look, I wasn't a Trump guy in those primaries in 2016. And then I saw what happened, and having experienced this too, they are going to come for you.
	They're going to do to him, or what they've done to him, they're going to do it to you.
	And yeah, it was something that...
	Well, you know after the manifesto thing, which I'm hoping we get, because this is like the biggest...
	This is a bigger story that you guys cracked about the Nashville manifesto.
	It's not about the manifesto.
	It's about the police state.
	The fact that they had to go to us, people like you, to get this thing out.
	I mean, I didn't do it.
	You did it.
	You guys get all the credit in the world.
	But the fact that that had to happen is just so embarrassing.
	I got a couple spots.
	I got a reason.
	I got to pay for the show.
	You're going to hang on?
	You're going to love my pillow.
	I did.
	I did that in the beginning.
	You missed it.
	I sleep on it.
	Well, let's do my next ad read.
	That's a good one.
	Dude, that's kind of weird, man.
	If you put them behind a curtain, I would have...
	Mike!
	My voting machine!
	They're the best voting machine.
	From the finest Egyptian chipsets.
	All right, listen, I've had too many cups of coffee.
	You tired of the same old bullshit coffee?
	Yes.
	You are, right?
	Then don't drink it.
	Drink blackout coffee.
	I know this guy.
	This guy John runs a company.
	All he cares about is two things.
	He lets me do whatever I want in these spots, too.
	That's what I love about it, because I drink too much coffee.
	He cares about coffee and he loves the country.
	I'm proud to recommend Blackout Coffee.
	It's a coffee company 100% committed to conservative values.
	From sourcing the beans to customer service to honestly just making good coffee.

	You had a Brutal Awakening.
	And believe me, man, that stuff is strong.
	But never bitter.
	It's my favorite coffee.
	I drink about 47 cups.
	I'm kidding!
	Don't do that.

	All right, Steve, back to this Trump conversation, because I think you know better than anyone, the Republican Party for the last, gosh, 50 years has had a big problem with the black vote and the Hispanic vote.
	We're dealing with a couple things.
	One, our messaging sucks, and two, the media constantly calls us Nazis and Hitler and shit like that.
	But Trump seems to have cracked the code.
	I want to play this cut quick.
	This is from a Fox News Ingram show about a poll about Latino and Hispanic voters.
	I want to get your thoughts on the other side.
	Check this out.
	Former President Trump leading Biden 49% to 45% among registered voters.
	But when you look inside the numbers, things start to get really bleak for the Democrats.
	Among voters younger than 35, 48% now supporting Trump and 47% Biden.
	I can't even read.
	I'm so shocked.
	And among Latino voters, Trump's getting 46%, which would be historic for a Republican.
	So you know what?
	I knew this was breaking bad for Democrats and Trump was cracking the code finally.
	And by the way, why we don't appeal to black and Hispanic voters candidly, I never understood.
	I knocked on a lot of doors.
	I ran for office in Maryland.
	They got a huge portion of black voters.
	I got just destroyed.
	But when you knock on the door and you actually go and talk to them, You know, I would say to people, they'd be like, you Republican or Democrat?
	I said, I'm not going to tell you.
	I said, just give me like 30 seconds.
	Let me tell you what I believe in.
	And then you tell me what I am.
	And then they would say, you're a Democrat.
	I'd say, no, I'm a Republican.
	I talk about school choice and stuff.
	And I realized that, gosh, a lot of these voters are really confused because the media lies with them all the time.
	But why do you think Trump's like kind of cracked that code a little bit?
	There are a couple of things.
	We do the segment Black and White on the Gray Issues, where I'm doing one this week.
	I'm just going into a barbershop and just talk with people, black Americans.
	And they are the moderate wing of the Democrat Party.
	They tend to be very traditional in gender roles.
	They're not into the LGBTQ AIP business.
	They tend to be very patriotic.
	They think that there are flaws, but a lot of them appreciate America certainly more than white suburban women.
	So, I think it's a messaging thing.
	It's that the media has been in charge of a lot of it.
	I think, though, the most important component there, because I also have some of these polls.
	I don't know which polls Fox News was using, but there was the New York Times polls.
	And those are still really good.
	So, for example, they only had Donald Trump at like 22% of the black vote, and they had him within eight points with the Latino vote.
	So, in other words, this is the New York Times.
	It's really good.
	But the most telling thing there is the 18 to 29-year-olds from the New York Times poll had Biden only up by one.
	18 to 29-year-olds.
	Here's the thing.
	If you were to not change the black vote at all, I'm not saying you should, but if you were to not gain any more Hispanic votes at all, and you just mitigated the losses with the under 35 to, you know, within 10 points, Republicans would never lose another election again.
	No, there's no math for the Dems to win.
	That's the big number.
	And then if they could grab about 15% of white female voters, it wouldn't even be close.
	So that's what's most shocking to me, because black people still only make up 13% of the population.
	The vote turnout is very low, comparatively, to white Americans, but under 35. The fact that that's within striking distance, that is a tectonic shift.
	And I think the reason it's happening And this is just an opinion, I don't know, but I'm not a political analyst.
	One thing that's universal, people hate feeling like they've had the wool pulled over their eyes.
	They really don't.
	Because everyone's had someone get screwed, whether it's a bad mechanic.
	In other words, sometimes we can't relate to the evil of Hamas and Israel because we don't live in that.
	But we all know being screwed by someone who's...
	There's a fundamental feeling of fairness more than anything.
	You would rather have...
	Less food to eat when you're hungry than being satiated and having another guy get more food than you.
	You're like, no, I got fucked.
	Even though you don't want it anymore.
	Yeah, if he did it through underhanded means.
	And so I think what's happening right now is, you know, the best thing Biden could do is never compare himself to Trump on the economy or on foreign policy.
	He keeps doing it.
	And so when you keep telling people the economy is great, even people who are liberals, I don't know that they're becoming conservative.
	They're going, hmm.
	Now you're lying to me because everyone out there knows that we are worse off economically.
	Everyone out there knows that now we're involved in these proxy wars.
	And so they don't like having the wool pulled over their eyes.
	That's why I think you're seeing this number shift toward Trump across the board because they're going, ah, maybe he was a dick.
	But he wasn't lying to me like you are.
	You can only lie to people in the face of their lived experience for so much before they turn on you.
	I think that's what's happening.
	Guy, you know what I totally screwed up?
	Because we should have got that Dave Chappelle, SNL. You ever see the Dave Chappelle on SNL about Trump?
	Yeah.
	Holy shit.
	What you just said, he freaking nailed it.
	He's like, and he looked over to Hillary Clinton about the tax code, and he said, I use the tax code, and that's why I don't pay higher taxes.
	And then he said some shit like, and he goes, and you won't change it because your friends benefit.
	He goes, and a star was born.
	Yep.
	Dude, you just nailed it.
	One more and then one more than some other stuff, including the worst soundbite ever from a politician.
	This is Vivek.
	I want to get your take on the RNC. Oh, I thought it was going to be Hitler.
	No, not that.
	It's like you're on in the show.
	Pull up, Vivek.
	I'm sorry, guys, to skip ahead if I'm messing up your production.
	Here's Vivek calling out Ron who runs the RNC. Your thoughts on this?
	Check this out.
	We've become a party of losers at the end of the day.
	It was a cancer to the Republican establishment.
	Let's speak the truth.
	I mean, since Ronald McDaniel took over as chairwoman of the RNC in 2017, we have lost 2018, 2020, 2022, no red wave that never came.
	We got trounced last night in 2023. And I think that we have to have a Listen, Steve, I'm kind of agnostic.
	I really don't give a fuck.
	I never pay attention to the RNC either.
	Unless it was like you were a friend of mine in charge of it.
	I just don't donate there.
	I donate to individuals, so I really don't care.
	But having said that...
	Vivek is another one that, like, Trump kind of gets the pulse.
	Yeah.
	That was probably, like, the best opening statement I've heard in a long time, where I was like, you know, when Tim Scott was talking, it's a nice guy, but you just want it to be over?
	A little bit.
	Yeah, you want to hear the next guy talk?
	When he was, I was sitting there like, wow, man, like, he really nailed it on that one.
	Yeah, and he, you know, we did an Ash Wednesday where we sat down with him.
	This was after the second debate, and we told him, like, hey, what happened to the first debate, Vivek?
	First debate, you came out, you were throwing bombs.
	Second one, you were trying to be buddies with them.
	And he said, you know, I know.
	And he went back out and he was true to form, at least his original form.
	So, yeah, look, Ron is awful.
	If you look at her record, it's a losing record, this Romney broad.
	So that's a valid point.
	And I will say, I think Ron DeSantis, great governor, has done great work.
	The primary concern that people have is not who he is, but in order to run nationally, who he has to be involved with.
	And, you know, and by the way, that doesn't mean that these are bad people.
	What it means is they have a way of doing things and they're out of touch with the actual voter, the RNC.
	So that's why you go, how is how is Ron DeSantis doing so poorly considering the lead that he had?
	It's not necessarily Ron DeSantis.
	It's the people saying, no, no, you need to do it this way, Ron.
	And so I think Vivek is trying to separate himself from the pack.
	The criticism is a lot of people are saying, is he just saying what we want to hear?
	What level of experience does he have?
	But I think it's important that at least someone is pointing it out.
	We need to have those different ideas.
	Yeah, it kind of irks me a little bit.
	Now listen, this is like talking about inauthenticity being a problem.
	Is there a more inauthentic mofo anywhere in the country than Gavin Newsom?
	French lingerie like slick back hair dude?
	This dude is the...
	I want you to listen to this one.
	This may be the single worst double...
	Folks, this is a stand-up like, here's my...
	Here's my...
	Kiss?
	Put your lips on my ass moment.
	Take...
	Lips.
	You don't have to invite me twice.
	Yeah.
	I've never seen a politician say, kiss my ass better than this guy.
	Here's Gavin Newsom.
	Keep in mind, he lords over California.
	Descending into chaos.
	You can't even find a freaking U-Haul because everybody's...
	It's like Snake Plissken escaped from L.A. surfing on the thing.
	The place is falling apart.
	There's homeless people shitting in the streets everywhere.
	They finally...
	Clean up San Francisco for the commies.
	And Gavin Newsom says this.
	I know folks say, oh, they're just cleaning up this place because all those fancy leaders are coming in its house.
	That's true.
	Because it's true.
	Yeah.
	Wait, wait.
	Is that not it?
	Yeah.
	Right on the ass?
	Yeah.
	Just, like, kiss my big ass, you voters.
	He's just, you're like, oh, there's going to be another half to this.
	Oh, there isn't?
	Right.
	I'm going to apologize, and I'm going to explain something.
	There was some federal edict in the way, and Secret Service waived it or something.
	He's like, nah, nah, it's just a big fuck you guy.
	Yeah, he's like, well, look.
	He's like, we can't have the leader of the CCP covered in human shit, can we?
	Where's Gerald?
	That's for you.
	Can he comment?
	Can we bring him in at all?
	Yeah, we can bring him in.
	I love Gerald.
	I feel like we've neglected Gerald.
	Oh, he's going to be in later.
	He might be working on something now.
	Gerald, man.
	I will tell you, though, I will challenge you.
	One person more disingenuous.
	Gretchen Whitmer, Michigan.
	Hmm.
	She's the worst I've ever seen.
	You know what?
	Remember when she blocked off certain sections of the store during COVID and then her husband was outside on the lake fishing and shit?
	I know the guy who operated the boat lift.
	Where her husband called.
	I know the guy there up in northern Michigan.
	Gerald, I feel like it's not really a show.
	Gerald, I can't move on from this segment without getting your thoughts on the crew for the hair product.
	Gavin Newsom probably uses about a quarter gallon of crew every single day.
	So he's out in the French laundry.
	He tells everyone...
	Good restaurant.
	Beautiful, I'm sure.
	It's probably one of those places that does foie gras and shit.
	I heard he was more of a Dapper Dan man.
	And one pomade, damn it.
	I don't know about you guys.
	I'm assuming you guys were probably middle class humps like me.
	My dad was a plumber.
	My mom worked in a supermarket.
	Lower middle class over here.
	I prefer lower.
	He had an Italian plumber, Dan.
	While we're on the topic of French Laundry, I go, my friend's like a fancy wine dude.
	I don't know shit about wine, I just got into it, but it's cool.
	So we went to this like fufu wine tasting thing, which isn't really my bag of donuts, but what the fuck, I'll try it, right?
	But they serve food in there too, so it's one of those like seven course meals.
	You ever have one where you can't eat anything, and you're embarrassed because he comes out and he's like, this is the foie gras with the finishing, and I'm like...
	Did you get me a fucking quarter pound?
	I'm not eating that shit.
	But then I... Did you ever do this?
	I feel bad because the chef put a lot of time.
	So I mashed it up like I ate it and spread it around so it looked like I... But I didn't really eat any.
	Have you ever done that?
	It's good cover.
	I'm a sommelier.
	I'm literally...
	Are you?
	What do you think of Schaefer?
	Like, that's my new thing.
	Schaefer?
	That's great.
	I love Schaefer.
	Yeah, fantastic wines.
	I'm getting into, like, scarecrow.
	I've seen gay pride parades straighter than this conversation.
	Listen, I'm new rich.
	I'm like, you ever see the unsinkable Molly Brown from the Titanic?
	The new money?
	That's me.
	I'm so proud that I'm not old money and I'm not cultured at all.
	Like, rich people are horrified around me.
	I grew up eating at Steak and Ale with a petite top sirloin, like well done, with a bucket of A1 sauce, so I completely understand what you're saying, and I got into wine after not drinking until I was 26 years old, so I understand it, and I can hook you up with some good bottles of wine.
	What bothers me more than the food that they bring out is they all act, everyone there, they act like, of course.
	They go like, and this is the half quail on the seashell.
	You're like, of course, yeah, the half quail on the seashell.
	So I don't spread it around.
	I just put it in their face, like Like, this isn't good enough for me.
	I'm like, I'm not doing this.
	Someone bring me out of Five Guys.
	We're in Texas.
	We gotta shout out Whataburger.
	We gotta, I'm in Texas.
	God forbid you don't say that shit.
	But if someone, like, if someone just who works there goes like, look, I'm a server.
	Like, of course we don't eat this shit at home.
	Like, this is obviously a gimmick.
	And then you go, okay, I'll try it.
	It's a novelty.
	But they act as though they all know.
	That's what bothers me.
	Of course I'll try new things.
	I'm pretty open-minded to food.
	I'm not a picky eater.
	But when they just act like, hmm, yes, of course, this is a seafoam rumoulade or whatever.
	He's like, What?
	What am I eating the ocean?
	What are you talking about?
	I'm always embarrassed, though.
	They come out and I'll tell you, like, this is a reduction.
	I go, I don't know what that is, bro.
	Like, what does that even mean?
	Well, that's what I'm doing with your tip.
	It's reductioning all the time.
	But Gerald, because I love you guys' show, and it's not a good show.
	Thank you.
	Your thoughts on Newsom?
	I think this guy, and maybe Gretchen Whitmer, you're right, maybe a little phonier, but I think everybody's afraid Newsom's going to jump in, which I don't think Biden's going to be the nominee.
	I do think Newsom's going to come in.
	But I don't think he's a powerhouse we think he is.
	I think this guy would be so easily exposed by even like a semi-decent politician because he's such a phony.
	My problem with that, and I agree with you that he'd be easily exposed.
	My problem, I don't think they care on the left.
	I don't think the exposure of Gavin Newsom, because Gavin Newsom, I think he was the mayor of San Francisco and then became the governor of California.
	I spoke to one of his business partners at a winery because he was a part owner of three wineries out of Napa Valley.
	And he told me, Gavin has been preparing for president.
	Plumpjack, Cade, and Odette.
	Those three.
	Because I was in a restaurant.
	And this guy is an amazing guy.
	I know, I know.
	I didn't know this.
	So I got this friend down the block from me.
	He's like a super rich cat.
	But he's a nice guy to act like that.
	So they're always embarrassed because they always come out in a t-shirt, even in these places.
	And one day they were like, hey, try this wine out.
	And they brought out this Plumpjack.
	And my friend's like, who's a huge conservative.
	I love this guy.
	He's an orthodontist.
	He's like, he put up like the garlic in the cross for the Nosferatu.
	He's like, get that shit out of here!
	This poor Samoye guy.
	I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa.
	Is that like shitty wine?
	He goes, no, it's alright.
	He goes, that's Gavin Newsom's.
	I said, bro, if someone gets me in a picture in a restaurant...
	Drinking Gavin Newsom's wine.
	He saved my ass.
	I might have been fired.
	It's the Getty family, I believe.
	Gavin Newsom.
	And then there's one other guy.
	But one of the co-owners of that winery is actually a very cool, relatively conservative guy.
	And it's a hard space to be conservative in.
	A lot of those Napa wine growers, they're very conservative.
	But if you get to the upper echelons, it tends to go a little bit further left.
	I don't think that people accurately estimate the challenge that we will have on the Republican side with somebody like a Gavin Newsom.
	He has no soul.
	He will do anything to get to that office.
	His entire life is built around becoming President of the United States, period.
	Nothing else matters to this.
	Do you ever see the Adam Carolla clip with him?
	When Carolla...
	Oh, yeah.
	When he just dismantles him.
	It's like 10 years old.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	He came on Adam Carolla's pod, and Carolla, he's trying to make the case about some racial thing, and Carolla just eats this guy's lunch.
	And he's like, well, I understand.
	Why don't black people have this?
	And he doesn't want to say it?
	Yeah.
	But you could tell Newsom just didn't have an answer.
	I've got to take a quick break.
	My last break.
	Two spots.
	I want to get to the self-defense thing because you're rolling stuff.
	Gerald, you're not going anywhere, right?

	We've got the Corolla video.
	What's that?
	They got the Corolla video.
	Oh, we gotta play it.
	Wait, we gotta play it.
	But I just want to say before I go, I knew I'd have a good time with you motherfuckers because I have before when I've done the show.
	But given that this has been such a blast, when I open my studio, you've got to come out.
	I'll fly out.
	Yeah, for sure.
	We'll probably have to do our show from your studio.
	That's what we'll do.
	We'll switch it around.
	We'll do it reverse.
	All right, folks, you've got to watch this.
	These guys, the Crowder team's awesome.
	This is Corolla and Gavin Newsom getting his ass absolutely handed to him.
	This is glorious.
	Check this out.
	Half of African Americans in the state of California, roughly half of Latino families, have no access to a checking account or an ATM. Things we take for granted.
	They don't have a checking account.
	What's wrong with them?
	What's wrong with them?
	Because they don't have the resources to suck those things away.
	Why do we have them?
	Why do we have them?
	There's a lot of different reasons, but roughly half those families don't.
	Why do Armenians have them?
	I want to know why those two groups don't have access.
	It just happens to be that.
	So they're flawed?
	No, they're hardly flawed, but they're struggling.
	Genetics are making their work.
	Do Asians have this problem?
	I mean, a lot of communities have.
	It sounds like it's cranky.
	It's not just black and Hispanic.
	No, but I'm giving you...
	But why did you bring up black and Hispanic?
	Because the magnitude is ominous.
	But why so many of them?
	It just happens to be...
	The way God planned it?
	Not at all.
	Well, what happened to them?
	There are a lot of issues in that the communities are struggling.
	Why are they struggling?
	A lot of different reasons.
	Lack of opportunity.
	Hispanics have been here.
	Blacks have been here longer than we've been here.
	We can surmise.
	What about Asians?
	They were put in internment camps.
	Yeah, we, in fact, did all initiate out at San Francisco.
	The Chinese Exclusion Act came out.
	Are they the Czech cats?
	A lot of Asians certainly do.
	Tell me about Western Union.
	There's so many more.
	The magnitude and percentage terms.
	But there's no way to figure out how that happens.
	We can talk about that.
	You know what I'm dealing with?
	I don't want to have a sociological debate.
	Sure, why would you?
	No, here's why.
	Why would you want to do that?
	Because a person from the Times wouldn't write good things about you if you did that.
	No, no, that's not the case.
	Because I want to deal with reality.
	You want to deal with reality?
	I want to deal with reality of people that are...
	Is that not the way to handle that shit?
	Why?
	Well, what happened to them?
	Is it genetics?
	What about the Asians?
	At MAL, back in the day when I was begging to be on any show, I was such a loser in the business, and you're like, you'll take it.
	No, I was like a scrub.
	It was like 10 years ago.
	And WMAL, which we're actually on now, it's one of our stations in D.C., they were like, do a weekend show to whatever.
	So if you're like, yeah, you come in.
	I get a caller at the end.
	I swear, although it was short, I had almost the exact same interaction.
	The guy was against school choice.
	And I kept, it's like a 30 second call, but I'm going to try to find a tape one day.
	Bottom line is, I keep trying to get out of the guy who keeps insisting black parents are somehow incapable of choosing where their kids go.
	Why?
	If you're a racist, just say it, bro.
	Stop dicking around and just say it.
	I know.
	It really is.
	The school choice thing is I've challenged my audience anywhere, anyone, offer me a valid argument against school.
	No one can do it.
	Where I'm just saying, look, before we even get to school choice, just school vouchers, meaning instead of just sending it to a school, attach the money to the student.
	Before we even get to reducing the funding, every time I've had that conversation with someone who's even a hardcore Democrat, they go, yeah, okay, that makes sense.
	The only argument they try and make is, well, it's racist because then the black kids who are in neighborhoods where they have bad schools may not be able to travel.
	It's like, yeah, but right now they have no hope.
	They have no choice.
	They're At least they can maybe get on a bicycle and go to another school.
	It's not going to be worse off.
	So it's one of those issues where, yeah, the left is so incredibly racist.
	I mean, a good example is going to get to the New York subway story, but think about all of these, you know, stop Asian hate.
	Remember that was a hashtag?
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	When they thought they could blame conservatives.
	Yes, and then they saw, oh wait, there's a disproportionate number of crimes.
	But now the same people are in the street like, kill the Jews!
	And nobody's saying anything.
	Well, they use them.
	It's the craziest thing.
	They use them as pawns.
	Isn't this nuts?
	You know what?
	This is me.
	Well, you have to say something, because the last thing you said was kill the Jews.
	And the other day, when did I say you?
	I was on the radio show, and my producer was like, you realize you just said Nazi?
	Oh, I said, no, I said, you cannot see.
	It's kind of like saying master debater.
	Yes, but we know what you meant.
	You got to like say, like one time I was talking about how this guy, how Trump is a master debater, and I said it too quick, a master debater.
	He said, whoa, whoa, whoa, he's not like beaten off on stage.
	I said, master debater.
	Now I pause.
	I would never need to.
	Never beat my mate not once, folks, because all the ladies love me.
	And when you say, I cannot see, and you need to separate that.
	I want to get to the self-defense thing, because like I said, you and I share something in common, and my audience loves it, especially if we can give them some tips.
	But you said something before that is so spot on.
	You know, I'm 48. I'm nobody's tough guy anymore.
	I get my ass kicked tomorrow.
	I got arthritis all over the place.
	But back in the day when I was rolling with these guys, people, and especially dudes, overestimate their ability in the street to handle themselves.
	They've seen a Bruce Lee movie, a Chuck Norris movie.
	Hey guys, can we play the police one first?
	I'm sorry.
	I want to get to the shooting one second.
	This is a police officer in the subway, Steven.
	I always tell people, as you know, you got to control the hips.
	You'll see this guy gets it.
	And you'll see he's in that mid-range, which is like the worst spot.
	Either be out or be in.
	Yes.
	See, folks, he knows.
	You're either out or you're in.
	You're mid-range, you're going to get effed up.
	Here, watch this.
	There we go.
	See?
	He's in the danger zone.
	Oh, that's the worst.
	He's getting pounded right there.
	He's getting pounded.
	And by the way, when I'm the morning quarterback, this guy's a solid guy.
	Yeah.
	He's, you know, we can all learn shit.
	Well, you have to understand, these police officers get maybe a week of hand-to-hand training.
	Yeah, that's it.
	You know you can't learn that.
	No, you can't.
	See, he's got him, and they always go for the head every single time.
	They go for the head every single time, right?
	And by the way, what the guy is doing to the cop is, please suplex me, city, if the cop knew what he was doing.
	If he's grabbing around, oh, backwards.
	Dude, Dan Severin.
	Literally, you don't even have to.
	You just grab the hips, and that guy is going headfirst into the Congress.
	You see?
	He just said it, folks.
	You've got to control the hips.
	This is the one mistake, so keep rolling.
	So this guy, I don't know what this other guy is like.
	He's grabbing his arm, which isn't going to work.
	Now see, now he's controlling him.
	See, the guy's not able to punch him.
	Now he's controlling him.
	He's starting to figure it out.
	You're going to see he goes for the hips now.
	And then the fight totally changes.
	The other guy's just basically getting in the way.
	This guy's doing all the work.
	I've got to give this guy props for me.
	There you go.
	Now he's right in the spot.
	There you go.
	See, control.
	And now the guy's getting tired because bad guy's got about 90 seconds of juice.
	And now you'll see he mounts him and he's finally controlling the hips.
	He's kind of in a modified half guard there because the legs are around.
	It looks a little bit like by accident.
	Yeah, you're correct.
	Modified half guard folks when they kind of split the legs and the mouth.
	But you said it before.
	One of the things I try to tell my audience is if you get into shit in the streets, bad guys have superpowers and we don't.
	I don't know why it is.
	It's a cosmic law of evil people.
	And PCP. And PCP and drugs.
	You're not going to have it.
	They will.
	But if you don't know what you're doing on the ground, you are going to get freaking smoked, man, and you're going to get killed.
	Well, I think the bigger point here is when this happened, for example, with Derek Chauvin, cops don't know.
	So a lot of police officers, unfortunately, they do have to go to their gun and their belt because they can't subdue an assailant.
	Now, it's a huge mistake to say, no chokeholds.
	Hey, you and I both, if you've ever done boxing or any striking, if you've ever been...
	We had your bell rung, knocked out.
	It's terrible.
	Being choked out, it's like taking a nap.
	That's why my nose looks like this.
	Yeah, but being choked out, it doesn't hurt at all.
	People who don't realize, you go to sleep in three seconds.
	This is fake.
	My nose isn't real.
	This is a cadaver nose.
	Really?
	Yeah, this isn't real.
	They took it off a corpse?
	Do you know who the cadaver was?
	No, but what if it was a liberal?
	Hmm.
	What if it was a liberal?
	Do you have a liberal dose?
	That'd be fucked up.
	What if it was a black guy and now he's more than half black?
	Oh!
	Does that work that way?
	It could.
	I think so.
	I think you have a cadaver nose pass.
	And people, you know, everybody's always like, you always talk about the crazy, I share everything with my audience.
	So I boxed for years before I found jiu-jitsu, and I block with my head.
	I had like the Italian Rocky.
	I was going to say, you had nothing like Repetrior, the original Stairhead type.
	Yeah, yeah.
	And I block You ain't so bad.
	Yeah, you ain't so bad.
	Come on, Creed.
	You ain't so bad.
	So my nose has been smashed in for 30 years.
	And the only reason I had to do this is, you know, I don't give a fuck about my neck.
	What the hell?
	But I was on the radio and people were like, really bitching.
	They're like, tell Dan to blow his nose because we used to tape the podcast so I could just take it because I could never breathe.
	So my friend, my best buddy, man, is a plastic surgeon.
	He's a super smart guy.
	He's like, I'm fixing that damn freaking...
	Yeah, the fake nose.
	This shit ain't real.
	But now, now I can breathe.
	Good for you.
	There you go.
	Yeah, nice.
	That's a Flonase commercial.
	On the cop story, shouldn't there be like an equal time of ground and pound?
	Like, you know, the cop, everybody was like trying to step in and be like, all right, you've controlled him now.
	It's like, you get 30 seconds just to do your thing to beat the crap out of this guy.
	I think that'd be real.
	They should have to learn basic control, and they should have to display aptitude every single year.
	They should have to retest.
	Because the truth is, if you know how to control somebody, then you don't have to use these tools.
	But when you say, okay, we don't want firearms, okay, we don't want tasers, and we don't want chokeholds, what are you left with?
	Beating them with a club?
	But I think a lot of people don't really understand out there the reality of violence.
	So we've done some segments on here where we've kind of shown people, like, oh, you're Monday morning quarterback.
	Right, you get the Krav Maga or the Aikido guy.
	It's like, ah!
	I would do this and I got tiger fist and monkey claw and shit.
	You're like, that doesn't work.
	So people who live in a delusional, and it really is, it's denying reality, kind of like with the gender bending theory right now, they then, they dig their heels in.
	You need to, particularly with something like this, Be all in, like you said, or all out, meaning you're out of range where he can't hit you, he can't pull a knife, you can run away, or if you're in, if you don't know how to fight, look, you want to grab them so that they can't generate those punches because a 200-pound man on drugs, he doesn't have to know anything.
	He hits you, he has a shot at really hurting you.
	And a lot of people want to bow up and play tough guy.
	And you'll see this with police officers.
	Do not hold that guy out.
	But that's because they don't have the training.
	They don't have the training.
	The police unions out there, they're not saying, hey, we need better hand-to-hand training so that our officers can defend themselves and subdue an assailant.
	Because then people see that as violence.
	Like, no, no.
	It's anti-violence.
	The beauty of good grappling of jiu-jitsu is you can end a life or you can take your drunk uncle outside.
	You don't have to hurt him.
	You know, and that's why I have so much respect for these guys.
	I mean, we're messing around and all, but imagine, like you just said, Joe, some guy's legit trying to kill you.
	Yeah.
	And then you subdue them.
	It's like, now stop.
	Oh, no, it's over.
	And it is.
	It's got to be like, that's your job.
	Right.
	There's like a side of a man that's like...
	But there's a Matt Serra video that went around.
	Oh, in Vegas.
	Calm down!
	And he's holding this guy down, holding his arms, and the guys are trying to hit him.
	And then the cop comes up, and the cop's like, get off of him.
	He's like, are you going to take control?
	Calm down!
	Greatest video ever.
	You want to see how effective jiu-jitsu is?
	Take Steve's advice.
	Go put in a search engine, Matt Serra, Las Vegas.
	He was a UFC welterweight champ or something, middleweight champ.
	This guy's like drunk.
	He probably outweighs him by 50 pounds.
	Matt's just like, he's not even like burning any energy.
	No.
	That goes to show you how effective.
	But firearm stuff too.
	I want to show you this video.
	This guy, so he's rolling into his house.
	A couple of mutts jump over the fence.
	They follow him in.
	The guy's in one of these like fatal funnels.
	But he knows what to do right away.
	He does something, whether he did it by instinct or whether he did it because it was tactical.
	I tell people this all the time.
	If you're stuck and can't get away, he does something here.
	Check this out.
	So here they go.
	They jump the fence.
	They're coming in.
	Now, this guy's in a funnel, which is already big.
	Watch what he does.
	Whether he does it by...
	There we go.
	Create some space.
	Create some space.
	There he goes.
	Gets his gun.
	Can you guys play that again?
	Guy, you know the part I like.
	Watch right here.
	The guy comes up.
	Watch me.
	He has a coffee cup in his hand.
	I tell people all the time, if you are in a situation like this, option one is always get away, period.
	If you can get away, get away.
	I tell everyone, if you can't, It is a natural human instinct if anything comes at your eyes.
	Even if I do it now, I go, Steve, you're going to blink.
	This guy, whether he knows it or not, you see when he throws the coffee cup, the guy automatically backs it.
	Even though it's a coffee cup, he ain't going to do anything.
	He's got a gun.
	He's got a gun.
	It's like gun, coffee cup.
	Here we go.
	Gun, coffee cup.
	And the guy automatically backs up.
	If you've ever been in a fight, and I know you've rolled before, when you're sparring, when shit comes at your face, it's like a natural instinct.
	Maybe, you know, it wouldn't have gone down like that, though, if he had blackout coffee.
	I'd be like, is that Brutopia?
	Is that Brutal Awakening?
	And then he'd grab his nuts, which we call monkey grabs peach in Kung Fu.
	I do a little Kung Fu.
	Don't do that.
	No, it's great.
	He creates some space.
	Here's the thing that I will say.
	The guy who runs in...
	This is why we need the Dirty Harry and the Death Wish.
	And you're seeing that.
	People see that they want law and order.
	That man forfeited his right to live.
	I don't know if it's an empty gun.
	I don't know if he just wants to take my stuff.
	There are too many people who get shot, who get stabbed, who get killed.
	Someone's on drugs.
	The second someone puts you in a position where it could potentially be your life or his or your family safety or his, guess what?
	You forfeit your right to live.
	And so I want to read more headlines, man shoots intruders, or woman shoots even would-be rapist, rather than man dead in a ditch.
	Can we dispel a lot of mist, too?
	By the way, you ever been kicked in the nuts in a fight?
	It fucking hurts.
	You want to know my worst nut shot story?
	Do you want to know it?
	Grappling?
	No.
	What?
	It was my Johnny boy out there, his daughter, was at her fourth grade birthday party, and she had a lightsaber.
	Oh!
	And it was non-retractable.
	Here's the thing.
	Every guy out there, look, you can comment below and it helps the algorithm.
	She jousted my ball against my thigh so it rolled.
	You know what I mean?
	Like it had rolled and I fell to my knees and I was sure I was going to throw up.
	Are you in the hospital?
	No, I wasn't.
	And she felt so bad.
	She was so sweet.
	It was an accident.
	But yeah, people don't...
	Now, that being said, if you're high in adrenaline and stuff, you're not going to feel it.
	The only way to subdue someone like that is take out the eyes from the equation or choke them out.
	You have to literally put them to sleep.
	Shut the computer down.
	You have to shut the computer down.
	I love when people have these fairy tales to it.
	They're like...
	You know, punch him in the nose and he's gonna...
	Bro, I've seen...
	You ever see a UFC fight?
	Guy's got no nose.
	His nose in the back of his head.
	They don't even give a shit.
	They'll cut my eye, Mick.
	They don't give a shit.
	You gotta like...
	I don't want to cut your eyes perfect.
	Got a perfect together nose.
	Dude, you're really good.
	Did you always know you had this talent for voices?
	No, I couldn't sing or dance.
	Can't do shit, man.
	I can't dance either.
	Really?
	Not even half?
	I'm going to tell you, I'm going to dance.
	But here's the thing too, and you know, you talk about this a lot, and I don't want to, but I know that you talk about this.
	The most important statistic for people to know is around 30,000 people take away suicides.
	Between 12 and 20,000 people die from firearms each year, right, as far as homicides.
	The amount of lives saved, according to sources that want to hide this, is at minimum half a million, the highest end 3 million, the estimate is closer to 2 million defensive uses of firearms each year versus, call it, 15,000 people taken.
	So when they say if it saves one life, well, what if it saves 2 million every single year?
	Yeah.
	And honestly, guys, how many happen that the guy just doesn't report it?
	I mean, there are probably some people out there who are like, bygones be bygones, like, let's just let this go.
	But yeah, last topic, because this is, and then we'll roll over, and then we're doing your show.
	I got to sit in a guest seat.
	You're taking over your studio.
	This is like a big rumble.
	By the way, thank you to really, he's got a little statue here going.
	Hey, that's supposed to be glued to the desk.
	What's going on, guy?
	Did he just Hulk that and didn't even realize it?
	Joe Lewis kept knocking it over when he'd come in.
	With a door hammer, like, only I can do it.
	It's like a fucking Marvel movie.
	It's the guinea in the stone.
	Hey!
	I pulled it.
	Joe will be like...
	That's hilarious.
	So you guys, I was really pissed about this story because you guys did a huge, huge public service.
	The Nashville manifesto from the Nashville trans shooter, that thing disappeared into the ether.
	You damn well know if the narrative was different, it would have leaked out the next day.
	And every Trump supporter and every Republican, me, Steve, and everyone in this room would have been accused of being accomplices to murder.
	And they hid it forever.
	You guys got it.
	You protected your sources.
	What pissed me off about the story is the next day I was watching a number of different outlets, and I heard one from Gavishap, but everybody kind of like glossed over the fact that you did it.
	It was like, oh, it leaked to conservative.
	No, it didn't leak to conservative media.
	It leaked to the Crowder show, and I don't like that shit when people disrespect people like that.
	I was kind of annoyed, but that was a huge scoop.
	Well, And actually, on our show, which is coming up next year, you don't even need to change the channel.
	We have some new information regarding the manifesto, so we're still making sure to vet it right now as we speak.
	But no, I gotta say, look, I can't take credit for it.
	The only thing I can take credit for is signing the fronts of checks and making it a part of the vision of Mug Club, right?
	It's like...
	If it were just a business decision, it wouldn't make sense.
	It's expensive.
	But they do a great job.
	There needs to be more investigative journalism.
	And I really have the luxury of complete confidence.
	When they come to me, they say, we have this.
	It's absolutely airtight.
	I know they've done their due diligence.
	And I know that when you have that, other people are going to try to dismiss it.
	Gerald knows.
	I said, watch.
	They're going to try and say it's not real.
	Then when they have to acknowledge it's real, they're going to attack the messenger.
	And of course you saw it, unfortunately, from some, you know, even people on the right where it becomes some Schwantzen measuring contest.
	It's like, look, we even told people, steal it, rip it, we don't care, grab it, disseminate it, just don't lie about it.
	And of course you had some people who were lying about it and adding text to the manifesto.
	That's why we make the original available.
	But yeah, this is something like, we want the whole manifesto.
	To give you an idea of the process, so to verify these documents, and I have to read this, but I don't get it wrong, because the investigative team were like, make sure you say these things so you don't reveal any sources and we're not in legal hot water.
	There was a source who sent this to us, like a vague tip.
	To verify the documents, my investigative team, they met with that source who leaked the manifesto to review the original text message, this kind of thread, which included photos of the manifesto.
	Then they read through the text, verifying the chain of events where we had an insider We're good to go.
	The mayor's going to run an investigation.
	They've put some officers on paid leave, which we've said, like, our source is as safe as in their mother's arms.
	We will go to jail to protect them.
	So I appreciate everyone, everyone who's joined Mug Club.
	And honestly, the first step is Rumble, getting off of YouTube and big tech.
	Our stuff was removed from YouTube, right?
	How do you join Mug Club?
	So my guys.
	Yeah, lottowithcredit.com slash Mug Club.
	And you just keep watching on Rumble.
	So you'll watch this show today.
	Then you'll watch our show for free on Rumble.
	But our show goes for another hour on Mug Club.
	You click that Join button.
	You get to keep watching.
	But YouTube is already removed.
	Our episode with the manifesto.
	This is where I wanted to go with this, and then we'll talk about it more on your side when we switch seats here, but...
	You know, I'm really into this whole police state thing for obvious reasons.
	I mean, one of the most transformative experiences in my life is, you know, when you're sitting there in a Secret Service Academy and you graduate and you raise your right hand, like, how about you guys?
	That meant something to me.
	I mean, you swear an oath, it means something.
	And, you know, that constitution matters.
	It's not just a piece of parchment.
	Like, those values mean something.
	You know, I had an uncle who, you know, I got the bronze star with a V cluster.
	I didn't even like talking, you know, goosebumps when I talk about you and see...
	But, you know, he was shot in the back in Vietnam protecting his friends, and his story, you can read it online, it's like amazing.
	It's Gregory Ambrose.
	Like, you know, alright, it was Vietnam, it wasn't the most popular war, but that flag meant something to him, and he was an idealist, and he went and did it.
	They said, go and do this, whether you agree with the mission or not, and he died.
	He was 19, like he's dead.
	So that oath means something to me, and the fact that we live in a place now Where you guys do traditional, legitimate journalism.
	There's no way this isn't journalism.
	And the police state folks don't target them.
	They come after you.
	It says to me, like, brother, man, that Constitution don't mean to other people what it means to us.
	You know what?
	And this is why I never did the blanket back the blue, because I'm going, look, there are a lot of good cops, and there are a lot of bad cops, too.
	And of course, when Black Lives Matter is saying, that's not the solution, what we need is, like we've talked about, better training, better accountability.
	The police unions need to have, they need to be entirely restructured, right?
	Because police unions protect the bad officers just as much as, they actually don't protect good officers like you.
	And we have had to talk with good police officers, we're not just talking about Nashville, we're talking about across the country, who say, look, this is a real problem within our department.
	And they hate the bad cops.
	Yeah, they're running up against the blue wall of silence.
	We're going, this is wrong.
	And so people don't realize there's a civil war going on within local police forces.
	And then in certain areas, you get one, you get a bad DA or you get a bad police chief or a commissioner.
	And guess what?
	They decide how the department operates.
	And those people are scared in the silence.
	And you know what you end up with?
	You actually end up with the kind of police force that you don't want when you have the leftist progress.
	Can we take this out to the federal level, too?
	Yes, no, absolutely.
	We've only got a couple minutes before we get to switch seats, and I want to get your thoughts on this for my crew that tuned in here.
	Just stay, by the way.
	We're going straight through, folks, so don't worry about it.
	The FBI, the federal level, I have zero faith in them.
	I've never in my life, I'm sorry if I'm stumbling, I just don't want to be hyperbolic and I don't want to sound ridiculous, but I've never in my life, in my 48 years on the planet, honestly felt like the FBI was going to come knocking on my door.
	I was like, whatever, they don't do, that's so obvious.
	I swear on my life, man, every day, I look, I have a glass front door, I'm like, one of these days, someone's gonna come up with a commission book.
	Do you ever feel that way?
	They came knocking on mine.
	Oh, that's why I'm asking you.
	Yeah, no, what happened was, remember the Gavin or Whitmer, the kidnapping plot?
	Oh, yeah.
	There was a bunch of, yeah.
	So there was a guy named there, and we've talked about this, a guy named Jason Chambers.
	J-A-Y, Sin Chambers.
	And when, back in the day, it was in Utah, Antifa was planning on killing people, showing up at a Ben Shapiro, I believe it was, I don't know if it was University of Utah.
	Um...
	Was it?
	Was it University of Utah?
	I don't know.
	It was in Utah, Salt Lake City.
	So Antifa, they handed out knives, and they handed out tasers, and we caught them, and the local PD, the media did nothing, and we had a guy who was the head of the digital terrorism unit with the FBI, and nothing came of it.
	And I remember thinking it was really weird.
	Like, he kept communicating back and forth.
	And then at one point, there was some stuff that he kind of offered up that we thought, and that's weird.
	That seems like a liability.
	We said, no, you know, we're probably pretty good.
	And then this guy disappeared.
	We never heard from him again.
	And he was one of the people named as a Fed.
	And the kidnapping went and replied, I think what happened, this is my opinion, I think what happened is he thought he was going to sting us, you know, relatively popular show, and then realized we're kind of basic bitch, like conservative Christians, where we weren't doing anything illegal.
	So he moved on.
	This guy was a Fed.
	This guy was a Fed.
	And he never did anything.
	I didn't know that.
	You never told me that.
	Jason Chambers, and we still, to this day, cannot reach him.
	So if he would like to correct the record, he can.
	What happened is, I think, okay, I can just say this.
	He offered us at one point, because I was speaking publicly, and I was like, hey, you know, I'm out there on stage, and we've had these death threats.
	What's the best kind of, like, body armor?
	It's a recommendation.
	And he said, well, you can use this.
	He said, but technically, that's not civilian legal.
	You know, it's only, but I could get it for you.
	And I said, you know what?
	I'll just get the civilian legal one, because it's not really worth the risk.
	I think that would have been the trap.
	Oh, dude, you'd be in the clink right now.
	And you can still get body armor, by the way.
	It's totally legal.
	So think about that.
	Here, a comedy show.
	Yes, we do journalism, but a comedy show, and we had to deal with it.
	So yeah, they'll definitely come in through your door.
	It shouldn't be a glass door.
	You should have rebar.
	What are you doing?
	Glass door?
	That makes it super easy.
	It's a pretty heavy glass door.
	I'm not funny.
	Is it like hockey glass?
	I wish I was more funny.
	You are funny.
	Yeah, you are.
	Am I funny?
	Yeah.
	We all think you're funny.
	Guy is like self-admittedly, so I'm not putting away.
	He's like the driest cat ever.
	That's why I love him.
	Because we're together all the time, and I'm not a chatty Cathy anymore for my blackout, brutal, awakening coffee, right?
	So I'll come down there.
	At the end of the show, someday we'll have a bed show, Guy will be like, that sucked.
	That was not a good show.
	I'm like, Oh, thanks, bro.
	Hey, Guy, what's your ethnicity?
	What's your background?
	I'll keep it private.
	No, get up!
	Bullshit!
	He's Brazilian.
	Oh, he's Brazilian?
	Yes.
	Oh, okay, good.
	Then you're fine.
	You don't need to worry about the next sketch.
	I was like, oh, the first sketch that happened to the break, I was like, oh, boy, he might get upset.
	You wanted to come out.
	You know you're part of the show when you come out here.
	Everybody gets thrown in the lines.
	Brazilian can be anything.
	It's like you.
	Yeah, I mean, you've already exposed my ethnicity.
	I mean, you can pass for anything.
	You're like Abercrombie.
	All right, we've got to do your show now.
	Oh yeah, that's right.
	Well, hold on.
	Do you have anything you've got to wrap up and tell people?
	Let me just say this.
	I'm not going to bring it up necessarily, but we have a couple of chats just thanking us for doing the mash-up here.
	We did find the Matt Serra clip, but we'll play that on a lateral side.
	Oh, you found it?
	Unless you want to leave with that.
	I don't know if we have enough time for it right now.
	This is his show.
	I don't care.
	We don't have to run on a specific clock as long as...
	I'm going to have to go drink some coffee.
	Yeah, yeah, yeah.
	All right, tell you what.
	I'm going to do this.
	I'll wrap up my thing.
	You go have your coffee.
	Do your thing.
	Yeah, but like a couple minutes.
	Don't take like another 20 minutes or something.
	No, no.
	All right.
	No, yeah.
	And then we're going to continue with our show with Dan in this seat.
	It's going to be, I mean, just so you know, like our show is moves like a little, it moves, it moves at a weird clip.
	So it's like, I don't know anything about that.
	My show is very organized.
	Four guys.
	They spent an hour asking me for the class.
	I totally screwed the whole thing.
	But this guy is the man, you know?
	And seriously, you had the cancer scan.
	We were all praying for you.
	Are you done with that?
	Yeah, I hope so.
	I mean, I figure...
	You know, if I go, like, five, ten more years, like, I'm good.
	And I don't mean that in, like, a weirdo kind of way.
	Like, I don't want to die.
	But I mean, like, God was good to me, man.
	I lived a good life.
	I was at the UFC last weekend.
	Yeah.
	And I'm sitting there.
	You know, Dana's got us in, like, the front row next to Tucker and freaking Trump.
	And I swear, man, I... I said to myself, if I go next week, like, I'm good.
	I really mean it.
	Like, I don't mean to be like a weirdo about it.
	You're not going next week.
	I didn't know.
	I love my daughters and so on.
	I want to see them, but God's been good to me, and I don't sweat it, man.
	I really don't.
	I don't think about it one day.
	I work out every morning.
	Chemo.
	I never miss the show during chemo.
	I'd work out the day after chemo.
	I'd go in the sauna.
	It smelled like a paint factory.
	Yeah.
	You sweat all that shit out.
	I was glad we opened up the show.
	See, you are funny.
	Yeah, sometimes.
	Only with him around, because he's contagious.
	But we opened up the show with it, talking about it.
	But, you know, I do laugh about it all the time.
	Honestly, people in chat, I thought you were going to look all progeria and shit, like Charlie Brown.
	You look great.
	I didn't know.
	Part of me thinks that maybe you're faking it.
	Maybe you're faking it.
	Come on, get a wide shot.
	I mean, come on, give me some time.
	Ask me for directions.
	It's that way.
	He was faking it for sympathy.
	Remember the only man who went through chemo and got stronger?
	Remember when you ask an Italian for directions?
	However, you ask an Italian for directions in New York, wherever it is, it's this way.
	With a flex.
	It's this way.
	But no, I feel great, man.
	Go ahead.
	We're going to keep going into the hour, though.
	No, no, no.
	I'm good, man.
	So Steve's just leaving while you're in front of the camera because this is what we do here on the show.
	He could go around, but he's like, ah, fuck it, it's my studio.
	Folks, please subscribe to his show as well.
	I realize I keep looking down.
	The camera's up there.
	Rumble, we love you.
	You know we've been all about free expression and providing a platform to people who can't speak anywhere else because they speak the truth.
	And I hope what we just talked about...
	With that manifesto and real journalism being done, I know there was a lot of sarcasm and we did a lot of fun stuff in the show, but this is real.
	This election's real.
	You learning how to defend yourself is real.
	And us exposing this police state, trying to hide this manifesto, that's real too.
	So we really appreciate it.
	I'll be on the radio show later too, so don't miss that.
	And then the book signing.
	Please, if you're in the Grapevine, Texas area, tomorrow I want to pack the house.
	It's in Grapevine Mills Mall.
	At 2 o'clock local time here in Texas, so don't miss that.
	Books a million.
	Yeah, books a million.
	I always forget.
	We've been packing a house with these things, though, and it's great because, you know, you guys have been doing this a long time, and sometimes you're around your own crew, and I know...
	Can I say you have a gym in here?
	Yeah, yeah, people.
	I don't want to give up any of your secrets, but...
	I don't know.
	So I came in the studio in the morning, and they have a really cool gym, like a money gym in here.
	It's like a bag in there in case you want to work out.
	And it's hard.
	I don't get to go out a lot, because if you go out to work out, you wind up spending two hours.
	Long story short, I don't want to drone on here, is that I don't get out to see people too much.
	And I know you guys probably experience the same thing.
	So that's why I love these book signings and stuff.
	Because you realize, like...
	We're talking to, like, really cool people with interesting stories.
	Yeah, it's not just the camera sitting in front of me right now.
	No, and I've had a few people come up, and the people with cancer and stuff is always tough.
	I always get all choked up when they come up, and they're like, you know, I had this cancer, too, and you inspired me to fight through it.
	And, you know, you look, and you realize, like, this show is important.
	You know what we do?
	Oh, yeah.
	And it really hits me deep, man.
	And I want to thank you guys for supporting Rumble, too.
	Oh, absolutely.
	We love it.
	And we appreciate what you're doing over there, too.
	Your show is fantastic.
	Well, we just figured out the live stream.
	I'm not cool like you guys.
	I was talking to Steve's dad, Darren.
	Darren, by the way, is like a big version.
	He looks exactly like he talks like him, too, right?
	And I was talking to him a couple years ago, and he had mentioned something about an election night.
	You guys had like 300,000 live streamers.
	And I kind of knew what you think as a tech investor, like I'd have a deep understanding of what those numbers meant.
	And I got to tell you, I didn't understand like how profound of a number that was.
	Yeah.
	And then Guy and I started live streaming because Chris was like, you're missing out.
	You're missing out.
	The chat people love to interact and stuff.
	And we started doing it.
	And I was like, holy shit, man.
	300,000 people.
	That's like the biggest stream in the world if you were to do that at any given time.
	And it was completely off YouTube at the time because we were censored.
	We were kicked off.
	That was for midterms.
	I think we had like 500,000 or just over 500,000 for the 2020 election itself live stream.
	It's insane the kind of numbers that you can do.
	We can tell when you guys rap, because our show, like, Reiki, like, the show just, like, jumps up right away.
	When your show is over, it's like, boom!
	We go for, like, 50, 70, 80, 90. But, you know, the nice part about the live stream is I jump in early.
	I like to really, like, interact with people.
	Sometimes I'll get in there if I've got nothing going on, like, 9.30 our time in the morning.
	And, you know, people will tell you, like, the most amazing things, man.
	Like, the conservative audience is so super loyal.
	Yeah.
	You know?
	Absolutely.
	And they're funny, too.
	Well, that's the thing.
	I'm not funny, so I need the audience.
	You are funny.
	We're laughing.
	You are.
	I think when I'm playing off someone, you know, like Steve...
	Well, Steve always makes everybody else funnier in the room, right?
	So that's definitely going to happen.
	But you're still funny.
	Trust me.
	You've definitely got some funny to you.
	I've tried to make the show a little lighter over the years, because it's such serious stuff we cover, especially in the conservative movement.
	But I'll be sitting there with Guy, and he never says anything about the show, so if a show's really good, I'll know, because Guy will be like, Dad.
	That was a good show, Dan.
	I'd be like, holy shit, man.
	That must have been like the most amazing thing ever.
	How long have you been with Steve?
	I did the 2016 election live stream and then started in this position in like 2017. You love it?
	Yeah, I mean, I had no background in doing this stuff.
	Were you ever an on-camera guy?
	Never.
	Not until I did this with him.
	I called into the radio show, like I had a background in understanding Islam, and there were a lot of attacks that were going on at the time, so I'd call in and talk about that or maybe give some bullet points for conversations if he was talking to somebody.
	We talked to Imam Chaudhry out of London one time, and I was there with him for that, but then when he moved down to Texas, I jumped in and just kind of stayed here because you guys allowed me to, which is weird.
	And that's on you.
	You guys do the same thing we do, though.
	The only thing is our studio is so small I can't get Guy on camera, but I have Joe and Guy and I made Jim on my radio show.
	I feel like it lends to a sense of family, like you're part of something bigger.
	I think other hosts are really losing out if you don't incorporate your team.
	You're making a huge mistake.
	One, nobody knows you better.
	But, I don't know, it's kind of like the morning zoo effect.
	Like, you feel like you're part of some of my cool club rather than just some guy.
	Yeah, and this conversation.
	Like, if we weren't doing this show, we'd be sitting around having these conversations.
	In fact, we do in the afternoon.
	So, it's basically just you get to see what we do all day, any day.
	So, I think that's the cool part of it.
	It's very organic.
	By the way, are you really a sommelier?
	I am, yeah.
	Dude, I'm not a wine cat at all because I couldn't afford it.
	I could afford Midnight Dragon.
	I don't even know if that's real anymore, but it was like vinegar when you were a kid.
	Remember when you were...
	Did you guys drink 40s when you were a kid?
	That's all we could have When you're a kid?
	Come on, where did you grow up, man?
	I grew up in rough neighborhoods.
	Maybe until I was like 25, but we had like the old English.
	And Ice Cube had that, makes your jimmy thicker with St. I's most, like, remember that?
	What?
	That was an actual end.
	Research, pull that, please.
	That was an end.
	Ice Cube makes your jimmy thicker.
	And I was like, wow, does it?
	Is there some kind of steroids in there or some shit?
	But there was St. Ides, there was Crazy Horse, and there was Old English.
	And basically, it'd be warm by the time you were a quarter way through.
	But it was the only way.
	You could hang with the homies out in the park.
	So I wasn't into expensive wine.
	But I get this friend.
	I like tequila.
	That's my thing.
	And I graduated up, and now I'm like, I love tequila.
	But my buddy got me into wine, and you know, it took me a long time to get a taste for it, because I didn't know the difference.
	Like, honestly, man, if you gave me Midnight Dragon versus Scarecrow, like, the first three, four weeks, you'd be like, whatever.
	But then when you, the problem is, once your palate changes, you're fucked.
	Yeah.
	You can, right?
	You can never go back.
	It comes back.
	We'll talk a little bit more about that, because I can get you pretty much anything on the planet.
	Like, I've got some good stuff.
	I've been on the list for Scarecrow forever.
	I can get it.
	It's impossible to get it.
	You know what my, one of my faves too is?
	I can get it.
	By the way, to my guys...
	I'm in the business!
	Hold on, here's my...
	Hold on, let me turn my man card right here.
	Here's a man card.
	It's in my...
	Actually, this is the hotel room key.
	But let's pretend...
	Here you go.
	I get it, I get it.
	But I never fake the funk with my audience.
	It'll funk, by the way.
	I actually like it now, and the problem now is it's an expensive habit.
	And the thing is, I'm not a really heavy drinker.
	I say I mess around a lot, but I'm really not.
	I'll drink a bottle over a course of three, four hours, maybe a bottle and a half.
	So the problem I was having is me and my wife would be in the house and we're like, so you crack two bottles, right?
	Yeah.
	And then you've got like an Opus 2016 is the only thing left.
	But you know you're only going to drink one glass.
	And you're like, this sucks.
	And I don't mix.
	You need a cellar protector.
	What is that?
	Really good wine that you like that keeps you from opening the Opus later.
	But it's not super expensive.
	We'll talk.
	We'll talk.
	I got you covered.
	You know what?
	Let me help you with your problem.
	Yeah, I do.
	This is a big problem.
	I lose a lot of sleep over this shit.
	I'll just make the recommendations for you.
	I can sell you the wine.
	I can tell you where to get it.
	Whatever.
	I don't even care.
	We'll get you squared away.
	But can you mix?
	Like, I can't mix at all.
	Yeah, I can go to different wines.
	No, no, no.
	Not the same glass, of course not.
	No, no, I mean mix, like, beer, wine, liquor.
	Oh, no, that's a bad idea.
	I can't do that.
	If I smell liquor and I've had, like, three glasses of wine, I never, ever, maybe under five times in the last 16 years, I've gotten sick.
	Hey, chatsters, while you guys are here, we're rocking with Gerald here.
	Let me know.
	I'm looking at my chat.
	Oh, gotcha.
	Can you guys mix?
	Yes, you can or no, you can't.
	If I mix...
	Don't do liquor afterwards.
	If you smell liquor afterwards, you're going to throw up.
	It doesn't matter if you've only had a few glasses of wine.
	It just kills your system.
	So one day...
	There's no way to do it.
	I was drinking with my buddy.
	We were having champagne.
	We're taking this long trip to Miami.
	Do you got to roll?
	No, no, no.
	I think we probably need to wrap this segment, and then we'll continue it in the Ladder with Crowder.
	So if you want to wrap up really quickly, we've got a couple of things we're going to roll, and then we're going to jump back in here.
	Sorry, folks.
	No, no, no.
	We're having a good time talking.
	That's what I'm saying.
	Wait, wait.
	One last thing.
	No.
	It does...
	Really?
	Worst hangover.
	I woke up in a hotel room in Miami after having mixed champagne.
	Without your kidney.
	I know.
	It happens to me.
	And I was like, is there stitches in my...
	I was like, what the...
	Did you ever like...
	You're like, if God took me now, it wouldn't be bad.
	It was that bad?
	I had my friend.
	I'm like, can you give me an IV, please?
	Like, I was dying.
	That was the only...
	Never again.
	Never again.
	All right, folks, I gotta go.
	Rumble.com slash Bongino.
	I'll be back with The Crowder Show.
	I'm gonna go get...
	Stay here.
	We'll be back.
	And we'll be back in a little bit.
	I'm now for something completely different.
	We shall never, ever suffer.
	Think of how more armed you receive information.
	Hold on to your butt.
	That guy was smarter than all the other candidates up there that I combined.
	And he is, and he's the right age.
	I didn't realize he's only 38. He's a young guy, man.
	He's got a lot of time.
	I mean, come on.
	I really do want a guy like that, who's young and can kind of identify with...
	It's strange to me, but it's also...
	I don't think you need to be young to identify with young people, to be clear.
	Well, the reason I say this is because I think it's someone who needs to be relevant.
	He can sell catheters!
	Put him in a cabinet position, or even VP, because...
	I don't think VP does need...
	Put him in the cupboard.
	That's going to be a bit next week, I know it.
	Oh yeah, I'm going to write it down.
	I guarantee you it'll be a bit next week.
	Otherwise, someone's getting fired.
	So where do you put...
	Someone's getting fired.
	Someone's coming for you.
	Someone's coming for you.
	Someone's coming for you.
	Someone's coming for you.
	Someone's coming for you.
	Stay tuned.
	We still have a full installment of Louder with Crowder with the world's favorite, or country's favorite guinea, Dan Bongino, here in just a few minutes.
	And look at this.
	It's extra white trashy.
	Stay tuned.
	Just don't...
	We're still going.
	We're going.
	The contentious relationship between YouTube and Crowder has been heating up.
	In this country, all people are equal before the law, but in a few short years, all peoples around the globe were electrified to learn that what Vox dreamed of, but could not accomplish, came to a thundering realization with YouTube's lightning-like targeting of conservative voices.

	It's a little more severe than being let out with a $50 bail.
	We will never surrender our sources.
	We will never compromise on the truth.
	And our pursuit of those who live in the shadow of the deep will never, ever stop.
	Our eyes and ears are everywhere.
	We are many.
	We are a mummy.
	We are you.
	We are.
	Much of Undercover.
	We are.
	We are.
	What is this?
	It's like the Pinocchio Muppet, these new headphones.
	No wonder the country's favorite Dago didn't want to wear them.
	I didn't break those.
	And he refuses to wear headphones.
	I did not break those.
	He refuses to wear headphones.
	It's not so much a refusal as a request.
	I gotta lower the seat, too, because I'm a little taller.
	Yeah, sorry.
	That's the Nordic blood in me.
	I'll make sure I get this up in case you didn't know.
	Do we have theme music for him?
	No.
	No.
	We don't.
	Because I don't know.
	We need to get his theme music.
	All right.
	Hey, guys.
	Right now, if you're watching, hit the like button.
	Share it.
	Of course, if you're watching on YouTube.
	What's the matter with you?
	I'm out of breath because I just ran out.
	I was like, dump!
	Dump!
	Dump!
	Because we were showing the Nashville Manifest.
	God forbid the truth gets out.
	So before I get to anything else, we're doing this marathon stream today.
	If at some point today during the stream you see this...
	That means head on over to Rumble.
	Why are you watching on YouTube?
	It doesn't make sense.
	Do we have this on the speaker so Dan can hear it?
	Yes.
	Okay, because he refuses to use headphones.
	What is it?
	You don't like it?
	It's not going to mess up your hair.
	No, I don't have any hair.
	No, when I was doing a radio show, I always feel so isolated.
	I need to hear the natural noise.
	I just hate it.
	I don't know.
	It's not my thing, man.
	I hate headphones.
	Can I just like...
	I do.
	Plus, I look like a...
	You're like an Italian-American former intelligence officer, Larry David.
	Am I? Yeah, you're petty and small-minded, but in a good way.
	You know...
	Is that my D music?
	There you go.
	That's Larry David.
	But I said before, I'm just not funny.
	No, you are.
	I wish I was funny like Larry David.
	Hey, chat.
	Guys, guys, comment below.
	Dan Bungy, he's just natural.
	Wait, wait, wait.
	Larry David, there was one show that's funny.
	There was one episode I saw.
	He had cancer, but it was the good cancer.
	The good Hodgkins.
	Yeah, the good Hodgkins.
	It's good Hodgkins.
	No, there's Hodgkins and non-Hodgkins.
	What's better, Hodgkins?
	Little do you know.
	Anyway.
	Alright, so look, let me introduce everybody.
	We're doing a marathon stream today.
	Then he has to go out and do his radio show because, you know, Dan does all these shows every day, which, you know, we don't have the juice for that.
	No deal.
	The juice, not juice.
	J-U-I-C-E. Number two, CEO, Captain Morgan, how are you?
	I'm doing well, man.
	How are you?
	Good.
	We have a lot to get to.
	What do you mean?
	You were just going to go and not even reply.
	I genuinely wanted to know how you were doing.
	You've had some neck issues.
	Well, Dan, how are you doing, Dan?
	Did you enjoy sitting in the chair over there for a few minutes?
	Dude, I did, and I learned something new, man.
	You're like a wine connoisseur.
	I officially turned my man card in on the show.
	It was the hotel key, but I sharp-eated man card.
	But I did.
	I learned a lot from you about wine and stuff like that.
	We're going to talk.
	I've got your number.
	Somebody gave it to me.
	You're going to hate it, but no.
	But we do have some exclusive information to get to.
	So first, let me hit you with...
	We'll give you a rundown right now.
	And Yakuza, I might need to adjust this a little.
	No, we're good.
	Oh, boy.
	We're good.
	It's a semi-pro studio.
	So, we have an exclusive update on the Nashville Manifesto that we're going to be discussing right off the top.
	We obviously are going to cover the Hamas protesters attacking the DNC. It's like January 6th to January 6th harder.
	And Salon is trying to gaslight you into believing that the economy is great.
	Biden's, they have a fentanyl deal.
	This seems like a lot of topics now, but it's not as...
	And then we actually have another exclusive from the Mug Club Investigative Unit and also a special hat tip to Ginger Snap on Dylan Mulvaney that we'll be talking about later on in the show.
	But you have to stay tuned for that.
	So first...
	The Nashville...
	I think we probably need to hit the dump button.
	Yes.
	Because...
	Liberally.
	Yes, because...
	Just so you know, other people can cover our Nashville manifesto stories, but not us.
	The original source, it's all been removed from YouTube.
	Now, it didn't count as a hard strike, because they don't want you to know that we were suspended for it, right?
	That's like...
	They want to Eddie Haskell this thing.
	So...
	But everything has been removed from YouTube.
	You can watch it on Rumble.
	You can, of course, see it on X. So it's been two weeks since we broke what is...
	It's been a big story, and we're incredibly appreciative.
	I, again, can't take credit, the investigative team here, that you support through Mug Club.
	You can join livewithcredit.com slash Mug Club.
	We get to sign.
	You sign the fronts of the checks if you think it's important, and they bring us work in which we have full confidence.
	But a ton has happened since then, and now you can help us do more.
	Some things have unfolded.
	Both behind the scenes and publicly.
	So let's first kind of go with what it is that you know.
	I don't think we need to dump this because it's from other news outlets.
	A talk show host is claiming to have released three pages of killer Audrey Hale's writings.
	Today, three images from what is purported to be the Covenant Shooter's journal were leaked online from a conservative podcaster, commentator, blogger, whatever you might want to call it, Louder with Crowder.
	Fox News confirming images of the Covenant school shooter's manifesto that were leaked to the public are, in fact, authentic.
	YouTube and Facebook have allegedly taken action against conservative podcast host Stephen Crowder, who has obtained and published some pages from the Nashville Covenant School Shooters manifesto.
	He's been accused of homophobia, misogyny, and racism.
	Now the Uvalde Foundation for Kids is calling on people To boycott his Louder with Crowder podcast.
	But this morning, Crowder remains defiant, saying it's taken Metro Police too long to release the shooter's writings.
	This is what Crowder had to say when Jeremy asked him if releasing just three pages was irresponsible.
	I sincerely don't believe for a second, and I don't think that you do, that any of this would have ever been released, if not for what took place today.
	I hope if they have more and there's more context, great.
	I want to.
	Our job here is done.
	So, kind of like I told you, you know, what happened.
	And by the way, this doesn't require someone to be Nostradamus.
	I said they will deny it.
	And then once they have to acknowledge that it is true, then they will attack the messenger.
	And they will say, oh, this isn't legitimate.
	And you know what?
	Hey.
	That's not a completely empty attack.
	This is a comedy show primarily, and people who are listening on audio, we just did a full hour with Dan.
	You can go and watch his show on Rumble.
	But this has been some of the fallout.
	Seven MNPD officers, they were placed on administrative assignment following the manifesto release.
	Now, I've been clear about this.
	There were some misreportings out there that we paid for the content, that didn't happen, that our source was fired because we paid.
	None of that is true.
	Nope.
	People are very irresponsible out there with the reporting, don't know how it got started.
	Now, what is true?
	Here's what we know, and here's what you can do about it.
	The mayor of Nashville ordered an investigation into the leak of the manifesto.
	You'd think there'd be more of an investigation into how this happened?
	Yeah, they're devoting more resources to being pissed at us.
	So here's the mayor, and in my head he sounds like this.
	I have directed Wally Deets, Metro's law director, to initiate an investigation into how these images could have been released.
	That investigation may involve local, state, and federal authorities.
	So...
	Send anyone you want, just not anyone you want back in one piece, figuratively.
	Now, Mug Club, us here, all of us, we've officially filed FOIA requests for the following reasons.
	For the MNPD Chief John Drake, we've filed them to the MNPD themselves, the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, TBI, not to be confused with, what is it, TMJ, when I drank red wine, the ATF, and here's what we are requesting.
	Because there's been a lot of coverage after this that you only have three pages.
	But we're not going to tell you what we do and what we don't have.
	We're not going to reveal our sources.
	But I do want...
	We do not have everything.
	We want everything for the public to see.
	So people who have said, you know what, this was irresponsible, you don't have the whole context.
	And the whole context showed that this person actually was, you know, a Trump-supporting MAGA diehard who wanted to go out and kill liberals.
	If that exists, we want to see it.
	If there's something that is incongruent with what it is that we released, which we 100% verified and then you did...
	Then we want to see it.
	So we're requesting with this FOIA request the entire manifesto be released, the journals authored by the shooter, the body cam footage, any notes, new internal policies, crime scene photos, emails regarding the leak, right, if that happened, if they're running an investigation, emails regarding investigations into the leaker, what kind of punishment they're hoping to administer to the leaker, And the status of the officers placed on leave, or leave, paid assignment leave.
	And the officers who are leading this investigation.
	Keep in mind, the National Association of Police said, you had a right to know this manifesto.
	This is not unprecedented.
	It would be entirely in line with precedent.
	They are obfuscating this because they want to bury it.
	Now, just to be clear, we have an update.
	This just happened while we were doing, I believe, Dan's show.
	Dan Bongino here.
	America's favorite guinea.
	I believe so.
	Yeah, favorite.
	Yeah, he's favorite.
	He's my favorite one.
	Pacino, no.
	The FOIA to the MNPD was auto-denied due to non-Tennessee residents.
	Oh, come on.
	So we will encourage you, Tennessee residents, to file, but we also want to take in with this FOIA request.
	We just listed everything that we were looking for.
	We want to take in a petition with hundreds of thousands, hey, potentially millions of you.
	They do not answer to you.
	Force them to answer to you.
	So we've created a landing page, releasethemanifesto.com.
	That's releasethemanifesto.com.
	Go in there, sign the petition to the MNPD to release the full manifesto.
	Do we have a clip?
	Or is that the clip?
	That was the clip.
	Okay, I wanted to make sure that happened.
	Make sure to go and do that right now.
	Sign this petition so that we can walk in there and literally maybe dump hundreds of pages out.
	Yes.
	ReleaseTheManifesto.com, especially if you're in Tennessee.
	It only requires one, and then we can walk in and say X hundreds of thousands, X million people right now want to see this.
	And by the way, I've spoken with some people there and said, oh, we've gotten so many complaints.
	Not one of them, from what I know, was a father of one of the victims.
	Yeah.
	So let's be clear about that.
	We have received a flood of emails from you, including from parents concerning Covenant spokesperson, Brent Leatherwood, Leather Pouch, Leather Sack.
	People have breached out to me directly.
	Yes.
	And we also just received exclusive, never-before-seen, heard information from a direct source that survived the shooting.
	Now we have to do our due diligence.
	We want to make sure that we are correct.
	We want to make sure that we vet this.
	So I'm not going to bring it to you today.
	But we do have that, and we are going through the process.
	So you can send in more tips.
	Look, lwctips at protonmail.com.
	We will go to jail to protect our sources.
	It's a wild goose chase, and they don't know what they're doing.
	They're running around like a bunch of chickens with their head cut off.
	And you know what?
	You guys can make a difference.
	Go to releasethemanifesto.com and sign that petition, and we'll continue with these exclusive leaks.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	And just for everybody, Brent Leatherwood, he's the guy who came out and called us, the shock jock who released it, and also the person, the source, a viper, for doing this, and then called on them to pray and really searched their soul.
	And also terribly unfunny.
	Terribly fun, sadly.
	Very, you know, not so much of a fun.
	And by the way, Dan Bongino here, his show is here on Rumble.
	Is it every weekday at 11?
	Yeah, every weekday at 11 o'clock Eastern Time.
	And then I roll right into the radio show afterwards.
	But I'm listening to you guys talk here.
	And then I got to tell you, man, this is getting under my skin like a tick burrowing in.
	Because think about it.
	You call me a journalist.
	I'm done with you.
	Don't insult me like that.
	I'm not.
	It's the worst title ever.
	You can call me a reporter.
	You call me a journalist.
	Right, Guy?
	We've got a rule.
	I don't think I call you a journalist.
	Can I call you a journalist?
	No, no.
	No, no, I got a point.
	If you're on my radio show and you call in and say, Dan, you're a journalist.
	I had to correct Congressman Tim Burchett one time.
	Nice guy, but he said, yo, you're a journalist.
	Did you say Tim Burchett?
	No, no, not Burchett.
	Yeah, he's a UFO guy.
	He's a good dude.
	He called him Burchett.
	That's what it sounded like.
	Well, it's like you said, Nazi.
	Nazi, master debater.
	Tim Beckett, don't have Burchett.
	I know, I got to slow down my cadence here.
	No, no, I get it.
	We're not really journalists, but you guys cracked, arguably, law enforcement-wise, probably the biggest story of the year.
	I can make a serious case for that.
	You did it responsibly.
	You did it the right way.
	But I just noticed something you did, and I want to applaud you guys.
	If there's something in that manifesto and the guy says, listen, I'm a MAGA voter, I'm a big conservative, you're damn right.
	You know damn well journalists would do the exact opposite.
	They would cover that shit up and release the one line that made them look good.
	So you know what?
	Kudos to you, motherfucker.
	Here's the other thing I'm looking at.
	I got 65 by my thing here.
	It's freezing cold, but he likes it cold.
	It is cold in here.
	I know, but you said you like it cold.
	Is it a little too cold?
	Oh, there you go.
	He's showing.
	I was in the pool!
	I was half worried you'd have a philostomy bag.
	I always show, like, we have Tommy John's mom.
	He's like, hey, Tommy John, but I gotta tell you, I don't think I can do anything like him because it's so cold in here.
	Way to plug a sponsor.
	I'm glad you didn't lift your shirt while you were plugging Blue Chew.
	Yeah.
	The old teenage uptuck where you gotta ratchet it down.
	All right.
	Everyone here knows the uptuck.
	Don't leave me out there hanging from here.
	Remember the uptuck as a teenager?
	The uptuck, if something was going on when you were a kid and you were aroused, you'd have to go up and rest.
	Oh, okay.
	I never heard it called that.
	But you know what I'm talking about.
	The most embarrassing moment of my life was my high school girlfriend's mother.
	And I had to up tuck.
	Around the mom?
	And I was helping with the dishes.
	So I reached up and my shirt and the model team above the belt.
	It was just like a little finger puppet.
	Thank you for correcting me.
	I'm like, you were checking her mom out?
	No, no, no.
	My girlfriend, we had come, it was the whole thing.
	It was horrible.
	You never recover from that.
	Did she notice?
	Did she give you the look?
	She knew, but she didn't say anything, but I knew she knew.
	Oh, that's the worst.
	Yeah, that's the worst.
	Just move on.
	It's cringe.
	You want me to grab the Lady Grey tea?
	Do you like the twinings or the Bigelow?
	Alright, but seriously, and Dan is one of the few people who has the balls to do what he's doing on Rumble, and he's been on board with at least the same ideals that we have as far as big tech and uncoupling, so we're really glad to have him here.
	And I know he's going to do his radio show, so he won't be here for the whole show.
	Okay, let's move on from that.
	ReleaseTheManifesto.com.
	Here we had yesterday pro-Hamas demonstrators.
	They were getting pretty rowdy outside of the DNC headquarters in D.C.
	And, well, here you go.
	I'm sorry.
	Wrong clip.
	That's just a group of nice Jews.
	Here's the actual clip of the pro-Hamas protest.
	Let's go!
	Careful, back, back!
	Careful!
	Sorry, I spilled some soda.
	That's why your mind's working.
	That was impressive how you did that so fast.
	Kim bolted in here, swapped you folks.
	You don't even know what's just happening.
	Oh, come on.
	He ain't got to give away.
	Oh, come on.
	Come on.
	Nothing up our sleeve.
	I'm the key, right?
	Everything's fair game.
	He was like, I don't want to tell you what I am.
	I'm like, I'm telling you everything's fair game if I'm in here.
	That was impressive how you did that.
	Thank you.
	Kim is awesome.
	She is awesome.
	Plus, I still don't have shiny shit on my forehead.
	You know what's awesome is this pimple that I've had for three weeks.
	But is that a zit?
	Yeah, no.
	It's the worst.
	You were doing an indie skit.
	Maybe I should get some of that here.
	Maybe I should get some of that chemo.
	I'll have that fresh skin.
	He's got a zit.
	Come back in.
	Yeah, chemo, clear that right up.
	It will, yeah.
	You won't even care about that.
	Proactive commercial.
	It's just me shriveled and like Stephen Hawking.
	My skin is clearer than a baby's bottom.
	All right.
	Here's a tweet from the Capitol Police, to be clear.
	It said, Tonight, six officers were treated for injuries, ranging from minor cuts to being pepper sprayed to being punched.
	One person has been arrested for assault on an officer.
	You had some top Democrats, which is almost an oxymoron.
	They had to be evacuated from the building.
	You had Hakeem Jeffries.
	He's a minority leader.
	You had Catherine Clark.
	She's a House Minority Whip.
	You had Pete Aguilar.
	I think it's Aguilar.
	He's the number three Democrat, I guess.
	Third is...
	First, third is the one with the hairy chest.
	Second is the best.
	So, here's the thing.
	Do you think that any of these pro-Hamas goons will face real legal consequences?
	Comment below.
	Whether you're on YouTube, whether you're on Rumble, you know, we want to hear from...
	Of course not.
	Look, this is kind of a question...
	It's rhetorical.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	It's rhetorical.
	What do you think is going to happen as someone who's been in the intelligence community?
	These people actually attacked officers.
	And by the way, they want to overthrow the U.S. government.
	That is, they want a foreign caliphate, people who support Hamas.
	They don't just want to, you know, see if they can do a recount.
	What do you think will happen to them, Dan?
	You know, I know you and I have had a blast, man.
	Like, I love hanging with you, and it's been a lot of fun.
	But I think you and I both agree, like, this is like some serious shit, man.
	And how it is in this country right now, you can drive around in your Prius or your Tesla, whatever, with a coexist bumper sticker.
	And then show up at a rally and then you're asked a simple question like, hey, can you condemn Hamas?
	I mean, in their charter, like you have a company operating agreement, like imagine if you had in the operating agreement and like Gerald comes to sign on and this lawyer goes, Gerald, there's something suspicious on page seven.
	It says there is a Jew hiding behind this tree and this rock.
	Yes.
	Come kill this Jew!
	Gerald's lawyer would be like, what the fuck is this?
	That sounds good to me.
	That's like in the Hamas charter about killing the Jews.
	And there are people like, well, there's two sides.
	No, no, no, there's not two sides.
	Like, if your side is kill the Jews, that's not a side.
	That's not like a legit side, okay?
	It is to them.
	It is.
	And I love that you did that.
	You're like, oh, here's the rally.
	Oh, no, I'm sorry.
	That's just a bunch of peaceful Jews calling for world peace and stuff.
	And then you go to the pro-terror rally.
	They're beating the shit out of cops.
	By the way, it's not an insurrection if they do.
	Cops go to jail.
	And is the FBI investigating?
	No, they're investigating you guys for the manifesto.
	Well, we're a much greater threat.
	By the way, we actually do have, in our company agreement, it's actually we have a minimum hiring of Jews in accounting.
	There's a minimum amount of vowels in the last name.
	Section 8.26, Appendix 2. He's an HR Sam.
	Disgusting.
	Anyway, I guess we can...
	Do we want to just move on?
	Yeah.
	Okay, all right.
	Because we have a lot to get to.
	We have exclusive stuff.
	Wait, wait.
	I've got to run.
	Can I make one more comment on this, Joe?
	Joe, please.
	I spent a lot of time in the Middle East in my last job.
	And I gotta tell you, man, there are no two sides, okay?
	You can debate all you want about where a Palestinian state should be fine.
	Like, I'm open to hearing any of it.
	I'm not partitioning.
	I'm not a diplomat.
	I'm just saying right now, there are a group of people out there that want to kill the Jews.
	And remember what Golda Meir said?
	I'll leave it here, man.
	She said, I can forgive you for killing our children.
	I can never forgive you for making us kill yours.
	I never ever forgot that.
	That sums this whole thing up.
	That's incredible.
	It's a good quote.
	I mean, it's not a good quote.
	It's a memorable quote.
	It's not a feel-good quote, just to be clear.
	Don't take that out of context.
	I don't want to go.
	I got like five more minutes.
	Okay, you got five more minutes.
	Stay with us right up until the bitter end.
	Yeah, stay with us until they haul you out of here.
	If I didn't have a live radio show, I would seriously like hanging.
	You guys are, you got a great team.
	Well, anytime you want to come in, and by that, I mean, you'll call ahead.
	They look like cool cats, too.
	They are.
	It's a very tightly knit crew here.
	Yeah.
	It's, you know, it's ride or die.
	So here, you probably know about this salon.
	Salon, yeah.
	The place that John Oliver uses unironically as a source.
	Oh boy.
	They think the economy is great.
	They published an article titled, this is the title, all references available at lightwithcreditor.com.
	We provide a bibliography every show.
	It's titled, Joe Biden's economy is honestly pretty amazing.
	How come it doesn't get its credit?
	Hit like if that's the dumbest shit you've ever heard in your life.
	Just saying something.
	Yeah, you know, and I mean, you've now watched two shows today where a lot of dumb stuff has been said.
	I don't want to rebut this all day.
	I don't have time to.
	Here are some brief statistics since Biden took office.
	Okay, overall prices, including food and energy, they've gone up 18.9% since Biden took office.
	Jeez.
	Not including food and energy, which is the number they use.
	That's where you hear the 17% number, which is still really bad.
	It's still really, really bad.
	Food prices alone, up 20%.
	Electricity prices, up 26%.
	Rent, up 17%.
	Not to mention the mortgage rates.
	Not to mention the price of gas.
	Of course, which would fall under energy.
	Not to mention the fact that wages have stagnated, if not gone down.
	But Salon is telling you that Biden's economy is taking off like a rocket.
	This rocket...
	They're now heading downrange.
	I'm still amazed at how many children watched the Challenger.
	Me.
	Live.
	Then I saw Bucky Brewster cry about it on a show like the next week or whatever it was.
	How old are you?
	I'm 36. Geez.
	I'm 48, brother.
	I watched that in Miss Gilfeather's class in fifth grade, and we were like, holy shit, that's insane.
	We're not supposed to see this.
	You have a delay in case Dan Rather says, fuck.
	It's one of those moments.
	I remember it like it was yesterday.
	But on your economy thing, I love economics.
	It's my thing.
	And I try not to bore my audience with wonky shit.
	And I think all the time, if you're not an economist, but you want to get a flavor like lick your finger where the wind is blowing on the economy, it's a really simple thing.
	How much am I making and what does that shit buy?
	And Biden fucked up both.
	You're making less money in real wages, and shit costs more money.
	It's like, how can you honestly tell people, oh, the economy's doing great, you just can't buy a car, food, oil, gas, nothing.
	It's just like bananas that this guy keeps running on this.
	Just say it sucks and you're going to fix it.
	That's why he's losing the black vote.
	Because black people, they don't like bullshit artists, right?
	They'll call them out.
	They'll be like, all right, man, I'll listen.
	I'll listen to what you got.
	He's like, well, look, let me tell you right now that you need to vote for me because you're doing better off.
	Then under Donald Trump, like, nah.
	And you know, like, nah.
	This is the thing, like, even, like, drug dealers understand that shit.
	Like, the drug dealer's like, man, that kilo I sold last week, last week it bought me a Lamborghini.
	This week I'm buying a Pinto.
	A broad-based, double-barreled middle finger across every socioeconomic spectrum.
	And the hilarious part about this is the dude will not give up the eponymously named Bidenomics.
	Everybody's telling this guy, bro, it sucks.
	Dump it.
	Go with something else.
	Because he's so stupid.
	He would be better off if Biden...
	And you guys can comment if you think this is correct or not.
	Strategically, Biden would be better off...
	Just saying, hey, Donald Trump was an asshole.
	Remember all the mean tweets?
	We've helped restore civility to America.
	It would still be a lie, but at least you wouldn't be putting on paper before and after economy, before and after no new wars with what's going on right now.
	He's doing a before and after in a way that hurts him.
	It's like someone saying, I took hydroxy cut.
	Look at me.
	Is that her?
	Dude, you remember Hydroxy?
	Yes, I do.
	It was in everything.
	Dude.
	They had it in Grappling Magazine?
	Remember Muscle Tech?
	Everywhere.
	I'm going to go, folks, so I can let Steve do a normal show.
	But wait.
	Hydroxy cup was badass.
	I almost died on that.
	Yes, of course.
	It was highly illegal.
	Brother, I was younger, and you know, when I'm a kid, like, take one's good, ten is better.
	I don't realize it had ephedra, and I'm like, I was trying to, like, lean out for some grappling thing or some shit, so it said, of course, take, like, one or two.
	Ephedra was no joke, and I think I took, like, eight or nine, so I'm out of the bed, and I'm, like, undergoing serious heart palpitations.
	I almost died.
	Ask my dad.
	They had a drink in Canada called Ultimate Orange.
	It was the same thing.
	Oh, Ultimate!
	I remember my dad, he went, he said, I'm going to the gym.
	It was like 6.30, I was getting ready for schools and grade school, and he walks out the door, and five minutes later, he walks back in, and he sits down on the couch.
	He's just holding, and I go, Daddy, go, shut up, shut up, shut up.
	Ultimate Orange, that was like straight up math.
	You know it's going to be banned.
	If it works, it's going to be banned tomorrow.
	Absolutely.
	Go, go, go, brother.
	Thank you for being here.
	See you around.
	Love you.
	See you later.
	Later, Dan.
	Thanks, man.
	Have a good show.
	And you guys can tune in and see what it is that he's doing here on Rumble.
	He's doing really well on Rumble.
	There aren't many people who are all in on Rumble.
	And there are quite a few new people who I think will be heading over there soon.
	Josh will come in.
	He's probably out there saying hi to Dan, trying to get a selfie.
	Dan the man, they call him.
	I don't call him that.
	This next thing.
	Okay, look.
	Alright, we'll just do it.
	We also have a 7 plus 1, by the way.
	7 plus 1 things God thinks of Megan Rapinoe later on in the show.
	Oh, yeah.
	And I will tell you this.
	We also have an exclusive later on.
	Dylan Mulvaney.
	Bud Light?
	You were told that, oh, it was just a personal commemorative can.
	Dylan Mulvaney wasn't paid.
	No.
	We have another Mug Club Undercover exclusive.
	We have the pay stubs.
	I thought that was Josh.
	Josh!
	Get in here!
	Is that Josh?
	Get in here!
	Are you ready, brother?
	Yeah.
	Alright.
	Get in.
	Listen to that.
	Okay.
	That was a real short-changed version of his theme.
	And Josh is willing to do the headphones.
	He's not a diva like Dan.
	You know what?
	No headphones today.
	No, shut up.
	Put them on.
	No, I got bad hearing.
	He's a guest.
	You're old hat at this point.
	Our relationship's like, you know, worn in shoes.
	There's a couple other things with a worn-in shoe on me.
	Can we get it resold?
	Namely, your shoes.
	Now, Wednesday, he's a big fentanyl guy, Josh.
	Huge fentanyl guy.
	Big fan.
	It just gets a bad rap.
	Former Vice President Joe Biden and Xi Jinping, they met in San Francisco to discuss, I guess you would say, the fraying relations between the frigid relations between the two countries.
	Here's a montage.
	Both of them without coats.
	It's in California.
	Must be cold, I guess.
	The handshake.
	Pause.
	Pause.
	These are...
	Why would they say that?
	Both of them.
	Both of them without coats?
	Yeah, do you notice that other people in the video aren't...
	They also are not wearing coats?
	In other words...
	And if you're offering the qualifier, if someone said they're in California, no one would expect the next statement to be like, why aren't they wearing coats?
	It's like, oh, well you said California, so clearly they're unlikely to be wearing coats unless it's an odd month.
	And then it's 11.17am, which is daytime.
	Yes.
	Daytime.
	It's almost at peak sunlight in California.
	What?
	Shut up.
	In a mild month.
	No coats.
	Fine.
	Just in case you wondered why the media, you know, is untrustworthy beyond, you know, everything else they lie about.
	It just bothers me.
	Let's continue.
	They have the same haircut.
	Yes.
	I look forward to having...
	In-depth exchange of views and reach new understandings with you on strategic and overarching issues critical to the direction of China-US relations and on major issues affecting world peace and development.
	Thanks, guys.
	Thanks, press.
	Thanks, guys.
	Where am I?
	Okay.
	So, do you even think that Biden knew he was in that meeting?
	I mean, you guys can comment below.
	Poor guy.
	That face looks like he's thinking, wow.
	I got to meet the president of China.
	No joke, folks.
	Hey, there's so many Chinamen here.
	Their eyes look like mine.
	Hey, you're Chinese.
	They squint too.
	So the two sides, they were talking about a lot of issues, including Taiwan, with Xi saying there are no plans for military action, but at some point the situation needs to be resolved.
	Now, this is something that's pretty important to kind of see the compromises that are being made, considering how it affects you.
	The American citizen.
	China.
	Communist China is the greatest international threat to the United States.
	And I don't just mean militarily, I mean as far as your way of life.
	Biden will, former Vice President Biden, respect the office, will allegedly, reportedly lift sanctions on China's Institute of Forensic Science.
	Now, so he's going to be lifting, right, this, and this is lifting sanctions.
	This is something that if you understand, if you go to Reuters, I don't have time to explain all of it, pretty severe.
	We're doing this to appease China so that Xi will agree, and he did, to take steps to stop the flow of fentanyl precursors.
	So in other words, hey, let's sit at the negotiating table and make a deal over what is effectively a bioweapon that is killing off Americans in record numbers.
	Here's former Vice President Biden talking.
	So today, with this new understanding, We're taking action to significantly reduce the flow of precursor chemicals and pill presses from China to the Western Hemisphere.
	It's going to save lives, and I appreciate President Xi's commitment on this issue.
	President Xi and I tasked our teams to maintain a policy and law enforcement coordination going forward to make sure it works.
	No, that's fantastic.
	Just to kind of go back to the Institute of Science, this company was providing the technology and equipment that was necessary to go up and round up all of the Uyghurs, the Muslims.
	And we said, hey...
	This is probably a bad idea.
	We're not going to allow you to do this anymore.
	And so that's the kind of funding.
	That's the thing that we're rolling back.
	We're like, well, you know, this is a really crappy company.
	It's got human rights abuses everywhere.
	But if you could just make sure that there's no way that we can possibly ever tell if you're upholding your end of the bargain by making these precursor compounds and sending them to Mexico that are killing American citizens, we'd be happy to go ahead and let this company do business as usual.
	Yes.
	It doesn't make any sense at all.
	Also, thank you for taking the mic from me because my breath smelled like a turtle cage.
	Did it?
	I need to, like, wash it down, get some mints, everything.
	Well, do it.
	You know, take a nice sip.
	Here's the thing.
	China's already done this before.
	Yeah.
	China has...
	When I say...
	I mean, lye.
	Rye.
	For the uninitiated rye.
	Rye.
	Marble rye.
	Yeah, yeah.
	It's a marble lie.
	So, here's the thing.
	They in 2019 China.
	They.
	When you say, what do you mean they?
	The Chinese.
	The Chinese communist government.
	In this case, I'm saying they.
	Yes, and I'm talking about a race of people, but mainly the government.
	Yeah.
	I empathize with the Chinese people, which is why I hate the Chinese communists.
	2019, China officially cracked down on fentanyl.
	Quote, unquote.
	That's what they told the internationally.
	Like, oh, no, no, we don't want fentanyl!
	Come on!
	No lie!
	Come on!
	So, that's 2019. U.S. Fentanyl deaths since then?
	2020?
	56,000.
	2021?
	70,000.
	2022?
	73,000.
	Yeah, it worked like a charm.
	Yeah.
	So, with no enforcement mechanism, with Communist China, who want to see the destruction of Western civilization, the destruction of American freedom, and I don't mean this in the ISIS way, like they just don't like that you're decadent.
	They want to be the world's only economic superpower, and they see Kind of like extremists, you know, Islamists, they want a caliphate for the world.
	The communist Chinese government, they want a world communist government.
	That's what they believe is the ultimate solution.
	Don't be confused.
	Biden now, with no enforcement mechanism, he's trusting Xi Jinping, a man he openly called a dictator.
	This is, how do I know that he knows this has no teeth?
	Because he said it himself after the meeting.
	After today, would you still refer to President Xi as a dictator?
	This is a term that we used earlier this year.
	Well, look, he is.
	I mean, he's a dictator in the sense that he is a guy who runs a country that is a foreign country that is based on a former government totally different than ours.
	Anyway, if you know something...
	That sounds bad enough, right?
	That's bad.
	We have another angle of that clip.
	Watch Secretary Blinken.
	Watch him in two key moments.
	When the question is asked, and then when the answer comes.
	Just watch what he does.
	Okay.
	President, after today, would you still refer to President Chief as a dictator?
	This is a term that we used earlier this year.
	Well, look, he is.
	I mean, he's a dictator in the sense that he...
	Those hands.
	He's like, ah, fudge.
	He's going, why did you say there was one Joe?
	Come on, I'm sorry.
	He's looking, and you see him wringing his hands.
	I'm not kidding.
	He's like, oh, Lord.
	And then he answered, and he goes...
	And he knows he's on camera, and that's the best.
	He can't help it.
	Inside, he's dying.
	He can't help it.
	So, yeah, I trust him.
	It's like he's saying, oh, we should have got a teleprompter.
	Leave, you crapped your pants, Joe.
	Run!
	He has like a Newsome signal that he's hitting a button for in the sky.
	Yeah, there's just kids off the states that he needs to smell.
	Chinese kids smell different.
	That wasabi?
	Now you're being a pedophile and you're mixing Asian cuisine.
	Fair point, fair point.
	Winston Churchill, you cannot negotiate with a tiger when your head's in its mouth.
	He's like, my head's in its mouth?
	You know?
	Yeah.
	That's all he's saying.
	Just trust anyway.
	That's why this guy has no respect.
	You were saying he's a dictator, but I trust him.
	And by the way, now, it's like they're becoming much closer.
	So with this warming of relations, they've decided to cash in on some buddy film reboots, like Big Trouble in Little China.
	Right there.
	That's nice.
	No trouble.
	No trouble.
	And Big China.
	Oh, that's actual China.
	And then they also have Shanghai Fentanyl as one there.
	Yeah.
	There you go.
	Last one just seems like a Western.
	I don't want to think about that.
	And they're just making a reboot.
	Yes.
	But again, and I will say this with the fentanyl thing, you guys can comment, horrible, right?
	Fentanyl itself.
	But it's also something like, let's be honest about what the opioid epidemic is.
	It's not a bunch of people who are accidentally being dosed with, for example, fentanyl in hospitals.
	They're dosing other drugs, other street drugs, with fentanyl.
	And that's a problem.
	You can get cocaine now and it may have fentanyl.
	Someone may think they're getting heroin, and honestly, heroin is the least of their worries.
	That being said, I also think that a lot of politicians are misrepresenting this where they're making it seem like you're going in to get a wisdom tooth removed and you're now addicted to Vicodin, which could be laced with fentanyl.
	Nope.
	The vast majority of opioid deaths have taken place since prescribing has gone down and the vast majority of them take place with street drugs, often laced with fentanyl, and then people who became addicted to prescription painkillers Usually we're addicted to something else.
	So I just want to be clear about that because politicians right now just go along with, oh, sure, the opioid epidemic.
	We need to identify what it is.
	So then all signs, all roads point to, well, where are we getting the fentanyl?
	The problem is fentanyl.
	And the problem with fentanyl is China and open borders.
	Okay?
	So let's just be clear about that so that people aren't going out just saying, this is a big...
	It's not a big pharma thing.
	This is a big China thing.
	Big trouble in big China.
	Okay.
	You think Biden was asking about great wall tips?
	Yes.
	I'm thinking about building my own walls.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	You got a wall?
	It's very nice.
	Yeah.
	How long did that take?
	How annoyed were the Mongolians?
	Do you have any extra Mongolians?
	Come over and build me a wall.
	Yeah.
	Remember a barbecue?
	Just keep those monsters out from the movie?
	We'll check number four.
	Yeah.
	Does your wall still work?
	I don't know.
	By the way, times that it was breached, someone was paid.
	Someone was bribed with the Great Wall Street.
	Every time.
	You just open the door.
	It's weird how the walls work.
	Yeah.
	Just grease his palms and the one object you can see from, what is it, one of three objects you can see from space?
	Yeah.
	You can just walk right in.
	Like it's a Hyatt place on a Tuesday.
	Okay.
	Yeah.
	Speaking of mediocre, Megan Rapinoe?
	Is it Rapinoe or Rapinoe?
	I say Rapinoe.
	Rapinoe.
	People have been saying Rapinoe.
	Who said Rapinoe?
	Is it Rapinoe?
	I think it's Rapinoe.
	I think I mispronounced it Rapinoe.
	That's not right.
	That's a little racist.
	Rapinoe?
	Rapinoe.
	It's Rapinoe.
	We shouldn't denigrate the migrants from Haitian colonies with that.
	Sorry.
	Apologies to the French.
	The French.
	They deserve better.
	They don't.
	Tuesday, we showed you this clip of Megan Rapinoe.
	There have been some developments where she was complaining about her injury and used that as an opportunity to be a bitch.
	Yeah, I thought about it a little bit.
	I mean, you know, I'm not a religious person or anything.
	Shocker.
	If there was a God, like, this is proof that there isn't.
	It's f***ed up.
	Yeah.
	Well, you know, go broke, even in your tendons.
	So this week she's like lesbian.
	Mr. Glass We probably have to dump that because we're reveling in somebody's miswork.
	I'm not reveling in her miswork.
	She went broke because it's a consequence to going woke.
	That's true.
	At least no one sliced her in the neck with a hockey skate.
	Soccer is far safer, especially when you're playing with women, which brings us to this week's 7 plus 1. You forgot the van in the chamber!
	This week's...
	I always forget the one in the chamber.
	This week's 7 plus 1 things God thinks about Megan Rapinoe.
	Number 7. Wait, she's the spokesperson for Subway now?
	I think I preferred the pedophile.
	Number 6. 7 plus 1 things God thinks of Megan Rapinoe.
	Gerald, number 6. Never heard of her.
	We only get real sports up here.
	Oh, well that makes...
	Seems like something God would say.
	He's omniscient, but nonetheless, he chooses to not.
	Seven plus one things God thinks of Megan Rapinoe.
	Josh, number five.
	Look, sure, I turned him into pillars of salt, but at least lesbians used to be hot.
	Yeah, well, you know what?
	Everything is good in his eye.
	They used to look good.
	Number four.
	Because of humanity's fall from grace, men will forever toil by the sweat of their brow, women will experience great pain in childbirth, and lesbians will forever miss penalty kicks.
	Game winning, even.
	Or losing.
	Seven plus one things God thinks of Megan Rapinoe.
	By the way, we have like three reloads if you want us to do it in a Scrapyard show.
	Number three, Gerald.
	For a lesbian, she sure nags like a straight woman.
	I hate all of you.
	It's better for you to be in the corner on the roof of a house than to live with a quarrelsome woman.
	Yes, yes.
	Number three.
	No, sorry.
	Number two.
	Number two.
	I meant to answer her prayers, but I was busy washing my beard.
	That doesn't sound like it.
	She's a busy guy.
	The busy guy has a full beard.
	And the number one thing that God thinks of Megan Rapinoe.
	Josh, take us home.
	It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than it is for an overpaid lesbian to make it into the kingdom of heaven.
	Oh, yes.
	The verse.
	That's fantastic.
	Nice job, Josh.
	And the plus one, hey, you think I'm harsh?
	Go try this with Allah.
	That's been this week's 7 plus 1.
	You forgot Sivan in the chamber!
	And you guys can comment, but if you want the reload.
	Oh, man, the ones that didn't make air.
	Oh, Gerald was like, we don't want it to be blasphemous.
	I'm like, this is clearly...
	He's like, God wouldn't say that.
	I'm like, he wouldn't say any of these things.
	He's going to let me contribute.
	Which is also fair.
	Like, yeah, but we can't make him say that one right there.
	We can't make him say that one.
	Specifically that one.
	Because God loves everything.
	He loves everybody.
	That's his tongue-in-cheek.
	Yes.
	You know.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I know.
	They're lesbians.
	They're lesbians, Gerald.
	We have to be tolerant of all ways of life.
	Yes.
	By the way...
	Be a loving person, Gerald.
	Before we go on to the Dylan Moldany thing.
	Jeez.
	The crazy thing about male to female transgenders who are also still into women.
	Like, they don't become...
	They don't turn into women and then go with men.
	There are a lot of transgenders who they end up becoming lesbians.
	So they were a man and then became a woman.
	That means that for a period of time, this person was a man making love to a woman like...
	Sorry, but like, ah, this cock.
	I wish that I could do away with all the nerve endings that were designed to make this pleasurable.
	Still be with a woman.
	And I don't know, like, do this?
	It's like you had the leg up?
	I don't know.
	Well, now it's really up.
	It's like this thing gets in the way.
	That's what it's for.
	I hate these orgasms.
	Oh, my God.
	It's like every time we have sex.
	It's like I don't even have to try.
	It's like this damn euphoria.
	It's messing with my dopamine.
	I need this to be more work.
	Yes.
	I want sex to be nothing more than crunches.
	Six-minute acts.
	Someone get Sean T in here.
	Leg raises?
	All right.
	So this is something else.
	We have another exclusive today.
	And by the way, you're going to be at Bricktown in Tulsa.
	Yes, Bricktown Comedy Club Tulsa this Sunday.
	This Sunday.
	This Sunday.
	We had Dan, so thanks for pinch-hitting.
	Dan had to go do another show.
	So this is another exclusive that we have, and it was sent to, thanks, hat tip to Ginger Snap Lane.
	Not hat tip.
	I mean, thank you to him.
	Someone reached out to him.
	Remember Bud Light and Dylan Mulvaney?
	Of course you do.
	But here's the thing.
	You were lied to.
	The damage control was a lie.
	Now we have the pay stubs to prove it.
	So I also want to ask you, what do you know about Captivate?
	Spelled with an 8. That's the company.
	Jerks.
	And they're the ones who...
	Oh, yep.
	Oh, okay.
	Sorry, we have someone coming in here.
	I think he forgot something.
	He might have.
	All good.
	Okay, all right.
	Thanks, sir.
	Captivate, is that like Ocean's 8?
	Yes, it is.
	Yeah, with the women?
	Get your own, ladies.
	So, Bud Light, they lied to you.
	We have the pay stubs.
	And Captivate is the company that's involved with this.
	So we have a source from a company that's intimately involved with the Dylan Mulvaney Bud Light can, who reached out to Mug Club Undercover, provided us with some never-before-seen documents.
	Again, you can send yours, lwcutips at protonmail.com.
	We will always protect our sources.
	Just a refresher so you can understand the relevancy here.
	Dylan Mulvaney, Bud Light resulted basically from this video as far as where it started.
	This month I celebrated my Day 365 of womanhood, And Bud Light sent me possibly the best gift ever, a can with my face on it.
	Okay.
	So, I don't know if that's the best gift ever.
	Like, I would say, like, love, the gift of children.
	Maybe, like, a water slide from your bedroom down to your pool would be really cool.
	PS5? PS5. Or a can with your freaky face, I guess.
	In Bev, the parent company, their stock is still down 8% market cap.
	That's $11 billion.
	They had a total loss of around $400 million in revenue.
	And Dylan Mulvaney came out afterwards and blamed Bud Light for not sticking up for him, her, Z. Well, here's the clip.
	I was waiting for the brand to reach out to me, but they never did.
	And for months now, I've been scared to leave my house.
	I have been ridiculed in public.
	I've been followed.
	And I have felt a loneliness that I wouldn't wish on anyone.
	Hmm.
	Oh.
	That's fair.
	I would wish it on some people.
	Yeah.
	I think we hit the target.
	So all of this happened, right?
	Consumers, they got mad, of course.
	They boycotted Bud Light.
	The market ended up dumping Bud Light.
	A lot of places stopped carrying Bud Light.
	Mulvaney threw them under the bus.
	But there's another player here that's not getting the credit it deserves.
	They also tried to throw Dylan Mulvaney under the bus and say, no, no, no, we didn't pay this person.
	It's not what you think it was.
	Right, it was just a gift.
	Not true.
	We can prove it.
	Time for another Mug Club Undercover.
	Okay, so here's the fun part.
	Let's go to the claim.
	The claim that they made, Anhauser-Busch CEO, Brendan Whitworth.
	Whitworth was his name.
	Whit.
	Whitworth.
	He said the whole thing was actually like, it wasn't a business relationship.
	It was just a private gift to Mulvaney.
	That was their damage control.
	What was your intention?
	What were you all trying to do here?
	And you've done this before, these promotional campaigns.
	Yeah, it was, just to be clear, it was a gift.
	And it was one can.
	But for us, as we look to kind of the future and we look to moving forward, we have to understand the impact that it's had.
	And like I said, that impact has taken place.
	Okay.
	Then they tried to blame conservatives, right, for pouncing, going, oh, you dumb conservatives, you don't understand this isn't even a Bud Light campaign, it was just a can, right, that was sent, were you mad that they sent one commemorative can, this person doesn't work with Bud Light?
	That's not true.
	That's not true.
	They even made another claim where they said that actually, this is another person said, just to prove they doubled down, said Mulvaney, maybe, maybe once they got caught, said maybe it was paid like four figures or something like that.
	Maybe paid like a few bucks.
	Okay.
	Here's the truth.
	Here's the truth.
	Dylan Mulvaney was paid a lot.
	And this is an exclusive that was sent to us and we verified.
	You can bring this up.
	This is a document obtained by Mug Club Undercover shows that the figure is much higher.
	Wow.
	Dylan Mulvaney was paid.
	There was one deposit there of $185,000 paid by Bud Light.
	$185,000.
	Yes, another man being paid more than WNBA star players.
	I know you're thinking...
	And here's the issue.
	If it would have been successful working in this industry, you don't pay $185,000 to an influencer if you don't plan to continue some kind of a campaign.
	They were testing the waters.
	This would have become a national campaign if they thought it was going to work.
	That's a lot.
	Guarantee you there was more planned.
	They didn't plan for the backlash, so then they tried to say, no, no, no, we actually didn't pay this person.
	Put some distance between them and Dylan Mulvaney, and then you get memory, right?
	The conservatives, they try and memory hole all this for you.
	You idiots.
	It was just someone who had a can that they basically created at Michael's with some googly eyes.
	Nope.
	This came straight from the top.
	$185,000, and they were planning to use this person as a spokesperson.
	Why?
	Well, let's be honest, to desensitize you to what you think might be a degeneracy.
	They may need to hit the YouTube dump button on that.
	I don't care.
	They want you to normalize all of this.
	Have you seen Dylan Mulvaney speak?
	Dylan Mulvaney is, at the very least, a narcissist.
	At the very least, someone who would be a horrible spokesperson.
	And by the way, when you watch that video, you know what else you're enabling?
	What we don't talk about?
	Anorexia.
	A biological male does not look that way.
	That is incredibly unhealthy.
	If you were to go in as just a normal man, and they go, how tall are you?
	I don't know how tall Dylan Mulvaney is.
	I'm 5'9".
	Okay, how much do you weigh?
	40?
	140?
	40. He's not drinking butt heavy, that's for sure.
	Kilograms?
	Yeah.
	Budweiser heavy.
	Get that broad dude some Guinness.
	And this comes from a bigger company at play, Captivate.
	This is a company, Captive number eight.
	And what they claim to be is an end-to-end influencer marketing company.
	Sort of like putting money through the Cayman, like you put them through a shell company, right?
	Bud Light says, hey, you know what?
	Do you have any good influencers?
	We want someone who checks these boxes right now.
	Maybe we have Pride Month coming up.
	So Captivate also says, we provide the tools and services to help you run high-performing influencer marketing campaigns.
	They facilitate connections of influencers and And companies.
	And I can tell you this, Budweiser and Heuser-Busch, these are big companies.
	Captivate has the line of communication to these huge companies.
	And they have the line of communication to YouTube.
	Remember when we said, YouTube says advertisers don't want to advertise on your channel.
	I'm going, wait a second, there's no one who wants to reach millions of people aged 18 To 30 years old?
	Weird.
	Who watch for 30 minutes?
	No, no.
	It's because companies like Captivate and other advertisers, what happens is they coalesce, they decide that they're going to control the market, and a few companies determine what it is that you get to see, and when it blows up in their face, they want you to feel like the fool.
	Right, and this is a very shady company that unfortunately is practicing, and we'll get into the details, but they're doing business like a lot of these companies.
	Something like this happens, all of a sudden they run away and they're paid and everybody else is screwed.
	And again, Bud Light loses out massively, but they're trying to deflect.
	That was our problem.
	They're trying to deflect and say, oh no, it's just this marketing company.
	We paid them a fee, but we don't know where it goes.
	Like, of course, it was just them doing it.
	It was a gift.
	Like, everything that they could possibly try and say to make this less than what it was.
	And by the way, and here's the thing, it's not even a profit motive, to be clear.
	People just go, oh, it's just, no, it's not a profit motive.
	It's an ideological one.
	They want to try and edge you along.
	It's like, you know what, let's do the demolition.
	Let's push a little bit.
	Disney, let's put a gay kiss in whatever it is like here.
	Oh, you know what, let's make a gay, let's, okay, let's make 10% of characters trans.
	Let's make sure that, even though it doesn't work, eventually, They get their way in conditioning you to a social agenda.
	They lose money when they do this initially, just to be clear.
	But they also want to ensure that people like us are demonetized.
	They want to ensure that people like you can't actually see sponsorships from companies that you would actually support.
	That's what's important here.
	They're manipulating the market.
	So Captivate worked with Anna Zerbush.
	Now, they completely drove their company into the ground, which is a part of this business model, too.
	These places are chop shops.
	They're ideological chop shops.
	So let me give you a little bit of information here on Captivate.
	April 1st, right?
	The Dylan Mulvaney, the Bud Light video dropped.
	Okay.
	Captivate started its first round of layoffs later that month.
	Hey, that's a win.
	And then six more rounds followed.
	Wow.
	Yeah, six more rounds of layoffs followed.
	And by the way, they did that in six rounds because if you're going to layoff, I think it's either 40 or 50% of the company, you have to give people at least 60 days notice.
	And so to skirt that rule, they just did it in multiple rounds so that they could say, oh, well, we were just laying off 30% of employees, 20%, 10%, not the rule.
	Oh, you meant tomorrow?
	Yeah, well, today it's 20. But what about tomorrow, though?
	Tomorrow it'll be 20. So you're saying it'll be 40?
	No, just today it's 20, though.
	But two days, it's, oh, I could see how you could think it's 40. Is that because it is 40?
	I could see why you would think that.
	Is it 40?
	But it is.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it's 40. So, then after that, June 5th, the New York Post revealed that Captivate was responsible for the partnership with Dylan Mulvaney.
	Okay, so according to the Post, Captivate was in a panic because, oof, backfired.
	This is from the New York Post.
	There was a lot of chatter among employees about what blowback the firm might face over the botched campaign.
	Here's another exclusive, and again, this is you supporting through Mug Club.
	We don't get any of this if you don't.
	Join up.
	Notice we have very few sponsors, and we don't make any revenue off of YouTube.
	We are funded by viewers like you, and that's why people feel confident in reaching out to you.
	We're grateful.
	Exclusive audio that we have here was obtained from a phone call involving Captivate, June 5th, all-hands-on-deck meeting, and this audio confirms that there was panic by CEO Krishna, I believe it's Krishna Subramian.
	We also have a zero-tolerance policy of talking to press, industry contacts, or existing customers about our clients, competitors, or any internal matters unless it's approved by Krishna Sunil or Megan.
	Also, I guess an area where it gets tricky as well, you might have industry contacts that are wanting to know if we work with certain brands or if we participated in a campaign That is highly confidential as well.
	And we don't want to communicate that to an industry contact or friend and then have them go ahead and tell media about it.
	And so we want to make sure that's clear to everyone.
	We, as a company, will not be responding to New York Post.
	So here's the thing.
	I understand all of that, right?
	Trade secrets.
	I get it.
	The issue is that you lied.
	The issue is they said, ah, I think maybe Mulvania might have been like four figures, I don't know.
	And then you had the CEO of Bud Light saying, this was just a one-time can.
	The issue is that you lied about it.
	The issue isn't that your relationships are kept private.
	I understand discretion, certainly as it relates to investigative journalism and even as it relates to transgender beer can campaigns.
	But...
	The issue that we have is when you lie and the media uses that to then gaslight conservatives.
	The reason they did that was to try and convince you that your boycotts don't work.
	All of this is connected.
	Let's go back here June 19th.
	Captivate then flew staff members and influencers out to the Cannes Lions Festival in France.
	You've heard of Cannes?
	Cannes.
	Cannes.
	It's French.
	You should know this.
	Here's the thing.
	You know what just happened.
	I always try and say it the American non-French way.
	Like in my mind, I'm like lingerie and people are like lingerie or whatever.
	So, okay.
	Americans do say it that way?
	I say cans.
	There you go.
	I'm not a Sauvonnier.
	Great big film festivals.
	Wow.
	And this is why this matters, too.
	They were in the red, and they have to keep up appearances.
	When people talk about the elite, the eyes wide shut party, it's not about some cabal of pedophiles.
	What you're talking about is people keeping up appearances who hate everything you stand for.
	And they want to spend money to appear as though...
	They're doing better than you.
	So they flew people out to this festival.
	Captivate and the CEO actually bragged about while they were going through six rounds of layoffs the trip on Instagram Most of those people don't work there anymore, so I guess it's fine Yeah, exactly.
	It's an influencer marketing chop shop, right?
	And by the way, I'm pretty sure that Bud Light, these people, they know about it.
	There used to happen with YouTube.
	There was like Collab Collective, these places that then went under where they would say, we're going to be a community.
	You'll all join forces.
	And all they did was take...
	A percentage from something that was going to happen anyway, and then eventually what happened, I worked with them.
	I worked with, I believe there was a company called Collab, was it Studio?
	Someone made up Studio 71. And then, of course, they said they would protect the channel, I'd be demonetized anyway, and they would say, we can't work with you anymore because you have the wrong opinions.
	This is all, do you really think that on that, by the way, an entire jet was privately charted with the company La Compagnie, I'm saying it now the French way, how would you say it in America?
	The company.
	Over a million dollars...
	Agreed.
	Agreed.
	It's spelled with it's not the company.
	There's a G. I know.
	There's the top G. So, a million dollars and nothing wrong with if you are wealthy.
	I know a guy who's incredibly wealthy.
	He has two planes.
	Good on him.
	Every now and then he lets me...
	What?
	Don't tell everyone, Stephen.
	No, yours are propellers.
	We appreciate your service and your jet.
	And by the way, you can't fly me anywhere.
	No, I'm not doing that.
	Um...
	So it's a chop shop.
	What they do is this is designed to collect some money, to make sure that everyone is okay with agreeing with each other, to make sure they're all on board with an agenda, make sure they gaslight conservatives so you think that you're isolated and you're alone.
	They were hoping that this would work so that you would feel, and it didn't.
	So this is a win.
	But now you have the confirmation.
	All the references available at ladderwithcredit.com.
	You have the pay stubs.
	They lied about that.
	So you have to ask yourself why.
	Why would a failing social media influencer company like Captivate, why would they be involved with a good six-figure check being sent to Dylan Mulvaney on behalf of Bud Light?
	And why would they lie about it?
	Why would the CEO lie about it?
	Because everything they do is dishonest.
	Could be financially.
	They probably don't want you to know about their business practices.
	And they certainly don't want you to know about the agenda.
	And they certainly don't want you to see them bleed.
	They don't want you to see them bleed and know that the company is struggling.
	And they will continue to struggle.
	Don't forget about it.
	Keep that pressure on.
	Don't go, well, it's Christmas now, and my uncle likes Bud Light.
	Nope!
	My aunt wants Target.
	Nope!
	That's the thing.
	They only work if you keep working them.
	So a million dollar private chartered plane.
	And by the way, on that plane, not a single can of Bud Light to be seen.
	Not even in the cupboard.
	So here, maybe not his kind of music.
	I get it.
	I understand.
	July 5th.
	Another lie here.
	They fired 13 employees.
	That was 5% of their staff.
	Part of the round.
	Citing poor performances.
	And here you have from Daily Mail.
	We assess the productivity of our employees with regular cadence and these layoffs were part of the continuous strategy that ensures our continued success.
	Kind of went the other way on that one.
	We wanted to emphasize that these decisions, which were not made lightly, were driven by a strategic assessment of our team with our business priorities in mind and not by financial challenges.
	That's key.
	Not by financial challenges.
	Not by financial challenges.
	And again, because they don't want you to know the financial challenges because, hey, you conservatives, you don't have the impact that you think you do.
	Yeah, you do.
	They want to keep up appearances, love.
	Here's the truth.
	From our source who reached out, the managers told, and hopefully you guys just have to take our word for this because we've provided you receipts with everything else.
	We can't do it in this instance for other reasons.
	Managers told their subordinates, That they were just instructed to cut funds, and it had nothing to do with performances.
	Wow.
	And by the way, now these employees, they can't get jobs.
	Yeah, because you're fired with cause.
	Yeah, well, you're fired with cause from a company that sucks.
	Like, wait, the person who fired you with cause put that crazy face on a can?
	How bad must you have been?
	Was that your idea?
	No, no, no, no, no.
	But they fired you.
	Now you have September 28th, 2023, Captivate fired 30 more employees.
	Now another 20% of the staff.
	And shortly after that, they hired...
	In case the private jet was, you know.
	This is worse.
	If you thought that that was opulent.
	I don't know when cultural appropriation comes in.
	They hired a mariachi band to celebrate the chief brand officer, Meredith Rojas.
	Here's a video from her Instagram.
	And the first comment on that was Taylor Lorenz.
	Yes, the person who you can't stand saying, I love this.
	OMG.
	Again, this is all this incestuous relationship of failures.
	You can follow that person, by the way.
	Meredith. Meredith.
	I believe it's Meredith. Valia or Meredith. Valian.
	Valian Rojas.
	Can we bring it up?
	Meredith, V-A-L-I-A-N-D-R-O-J-A-S on Instagram.
	Always keep it civil, but you're proud of Captivate.
	So let's conclude this here.
	Bud Light hires a crazy person to run a propaganda ad campaign, right?
	To just try and normalize this.
	So yeah, of course, everyone should just see people like Dylan Mulvaney as though that is just like, I don't know, Marilyn Monroe.
	Or, for crying out loud, I'm trying to think who was their Bud Light spokesperson.
	I don't know.
	They also, by the way, they've been screwing up for a while, Bud Light.
	They had Amy Schumer for a while.
	So, what happened?
	And the Clydesdales.
	The Clydesdales.
	That was Bud Weiser's standard.
	Yeah, it was Bud Weiser.
	The Frogs.
	The Frogs.
	All right, we're going over time.
	So, Bud Light hired crazy person.
	And I mean Dylan Mulvaney, not all trans people.
	I mean Dylan Mulvaney is clearly crazy.
	At least anorexic.
	A person with eating disorder.
	To run a propaganda ad campaign.
	Okay.
	Bud Light tanked.
	Market cap's still down 8%.
	And of course they've lost about $11 billion.
	The amount of revenue in sales still hasn't been totaled.
	Then Bud Light denied that they paid Mulvaney at all.
	Then Captivates and maybe it might have been, you know, like four figures.
	They lied about that.
	You now know that $185 This is how conservatives are created.
	Working-class people.
	In this case, we're working at a tech company.
	Yeah, they're working-class people who are working hard, have done nothing wrong, and the people at the top, who are ideologically motivated, are more concerned with pushing an agenda and gaslighting you.
	The reason that all of this happened, the reason they lied every step of the way, is because they want you to think that you are alone.
	Don't ever let them make this...
	Don't let this work.
	The idea that, hey, hey, there's so few...
	You're an extremist.
	Everyone wants this person on this can.
	Hey, wait a second.
	It was fine.
	This person wasn't paid.
	It was just a small thing.
	And, you know, Bud Light's doing fine.
	No, it's not.
	And it won't if you continue to.
	Do not allow yourself to become complacent.
	They want you to think that there are more of them than there are of you.
	That's why they want to look like they're successful.
	That's why they have these influencer end-to-end campaigns and bullshit terminology.
	They want you to think that you're just a rube when really they are quizzlings.
	They are patsies for the higher-ups, and they have to do the bidding of people who dangle a few checks who want to change the way this country works.
	Change what this country is.
	Change the nature of this country.
	A lot of these big companies, too, you have to understand, they're trying to break into markets in other parts of the world where people want to see America fail.
	You see it with Hollywood, but you often don't think that that's what's happening with these other companies.
	And the reason they lied about it is because they wanted you to feel stupid and go, well, you know, I guess I overreacted.
	No, you did not.
	You reacted perfectly appropriately, and it worked, and you can continue to do it, and it will continue to work, despite what Bud Light, Dylan Mulvaney, or Captivate tells you, and we really appreciate people who've been reaching out through the undercover tip lines.
	And by the way, before we leave, I don't know if I'm missing anything else.
