Time Text
Live from New York, it's Get Off My Ron with Devin McInnes.
Oh, baby.
We got no.
That was the Kingsman covering the greatest song ever made.
Actually, the original is just some boring Jamaican love song.
The Kingsman's cover is the greatest song ever made, and you can learn more about it when I go through my album of all Louie Louie recordings.
I believe the album's called Louie Louie, and that's on our other hit show, Off the Record, which is a smash hit.
We've got a lot to discuss today.
I want to get into Tommy Robinson.
Ezra Levant just got back from the UK, where he was reporting on Tommy's political campaign, as well as his trial, where he's being retried for contempt of court.
What?
By the way, I could talk to Ezra for a day just about contempt of court.
He's become an expert on it, researching all this stuff for Tommy and for the Tommy trial.
It's not really a thing.
Contempt of court is like, I hate that guy that killed my friend.
And get out of here, you jerk.
I'll bang, bang, bang.
Contempt of court, you needle-nose dickhead.
Maybe you'll pay a $700 fine.
Maybe.
I think the worst thing that's ever happened is they had some lawyer who was swearing at the judge, saying, like calling him a cunt or something.
And he was eventually charged with like a $1,000 fine that he refused to pay.
So that guy got off with nothing.
Tommy gets 40 days in prison and a retrial.
Double jeopardy.
Same crime twice, sort of.
I'll explain that later, though.
But before we get to any of that, how much time do we got here?
I am not dating.
I'm happily married to the same woman I've known since basically September 11th.
We have three kids.
But occasionally some of you youngsters will keep me up to date on what's going on in the dating field.
And I got to say, I'm worried about my boys.
I'm not worried about my girl.
She'll be fine.
But my boys, what a nightmare dating is for men.
There's two common themes that I've noticed.
They've sent me a bunch of pictures and I'll show them to you now.
The two common themes seem to be one, no whites need apply.
I'm racially segregating my dating.
Of course, you could never say that the other way.
No blacks.
If you're black and you want me, duh.
But the answer is no.
But these women happily go, no, thank, white people are gross.
Which, by the way, is their prerogative.
I don't want that to be illegal.
I just think it's kind of hypocritical that you could never have it the other way around.
And kind of disturbing.
I mean, there's a lot of different white guys.
Is it because blacks are more muscular or something?
We got muscular guys.
Is it because they're darker?
We got some dark eye ties.
We got some dark Hispanics.
Anyway, that's racist, but whatever.
The other thing they do is they show their Venmo.
Her Venmo is Zoe Kravitz.
And the implication there is, send me money and you're more likely to get sex because I need money.
In other words, prostitution.
So this woman, I think that's her butt there with some weird sort of leather garter belt ass chaps thing.
What?
What man is attracted to a woman in ass chaps?
I can't make out that picture.
I know what it is.
What is it?
That's an upside-down picture upwards at the cleavage.
That's the belly button at the upper right.
Oh.
See the belly button?
Dead giveaway.
Why would you take an upside-down picture of yourself?
She's a retard?
Can I not say retard?
I don't think we should say retard anymore.
I think it's time to retire that word.
Okay.
Even when I do something stupid.
That's a whole other discussion.
And you're derailing the show, as is your want.
So her cash app is Gloomy Girl.
Here's another one.
You've got all their heads cropped, by the way, dumbass.
Like, I don't, you can see that.
Fine.
We can't see it over here.
There we go.
So she's, I assume she's the Portly Pepper Pot in the foreground.
You still have her cropped.
You still have her cropped, Genie Arse.
Nice system, by the way.
I don't care if there's space above.
Okay?
God.
And why do we need all the bottom there?
Good luck reading that text.
I can read it fine.
No white boys, please.
Well, you have a huge screen.
Shut up.
Boy, we're really getting off onto the wrong foot here.
No white boys, please, she says.
Does that mean like I like being fat and I have no intention of losing the weight?
What's the subtext with that?
Is it like a fat empowering thing?
Because generally, specifically Caribbean gentlemen tend to be more interested in those who are gifted in the posterior region than, say, other cultures, say Nordic cultures or Asian cultures.
They tend to be less, have less of a voracious appetite for the big-boned, the curvy mamas.
All right, next.
Gina21, it's not just straws and it's not just turtles.
Pick up your shit.
If you have a Canadius jacket, swipe left.
That doesn't seem so bad.
I think Canada Goose, they use like coyote fur or something and people think that's a big deal.
Wow, she's a real looker, too.
Okay, I don't see anything about a Venmo there.
Only swipe right to non-white boys unless they're Italian.
Okay.
This one is pathetic.
Venmo Courtney underscore P12.
Please Venmo me anything.
I'm broke.
What a catch.
If you're white, don't even try.
Okay, done deal.
What clown world?
Oh, this one is Venmo me for a fun time.
Julia Precy.
She's 19.
Doesn't that mean I'm available for intercourse?
Isn't that what that means?
That certainly looks like that.
Oh, they're still going.
Venmo me $5 to get my Snapchat.
Maddie 19.
And she's basically showing her breasts there with that translucent tube top.
Oh, translucent tube top are playing at Mercury Lounge if you want to go.
It's like New Wave.
Yeah, they're opening up for Maddie 19.
It's a solo act.
It's a very rare Electro Clash night.
What else do we got?
Cash App Me If You Want My Attention.
Okay, so now prostitution isn't just sex.
It's attention.
Here's Diern, 21.
Venmo.
There's her Venmo.
This guy, I don't understand the problem with this one.
R.I.P. Grandma Irene.
That sounds okay.
Why is that in this list?
I don't know, but it says she, I say nigga a lot.
Oh.
And rest in peace, grandma.
Back-to-back.
Info.
Wow.
Also in other news, the Proud Boys.
Now, to be clear, what happened with me and the Proud Boys, and I thought I made it clear in a 40-minute video, but I ran into someone recently who said, did you leave them because they're racist now and it was getting out of hand?
Or because there was too much heat on you and you live in the suburbs?
Neither.
They're not racist.
And there was heat on them.
There was heat on that.
Why are you showing that before I announced it?
Wow, that's like seven screw-ups.
We've barely begun the show.
I was trying to go to this shot.
You went to the wrong shot.
Yes.
What is the matter with you?
Are you on drugs or not on drugs?
Because whatever you're doing, do the opposite.
Gotcha.
So if you're not on drugs, get addicted to some drugs, please.
So, but he was on that.
He was on the NYC 9.
I had a funny relationship with the FBI because I'd got credible threats and I'd talked to them, but then they were also investigating me.
They've been to see Dante Nero and they've even, the Secret Service in Britain has dropped in on Proud Boys.
So the big guys are always curious about Proud Boys.
And they said to me, or my lawyer said to me through a lawyer, that something very fishy is going on.
And it looks like what they're going to do is Rico you guys as a gang.
A gang has two things.
It has a leader and it does illegal activities.
The illegal activities thing is fishy.
There's something about crossing state lines to go to rallies could be seen as like cross-country riding.
There's a crime.
I don't know about that one.
But the leader thing was easy to get rid of.
And my legal team said, if you step down, they no longer have a leader and now the gang charge is going to be much harder to push on them.
And I think it worked.
Most of these guys are getting away with five days community service.
We're down to three dudes.
They're down to three dudes.
And I don't think they're going to take any pleas and fight it to the end.
And this is what's even more exciting, which Ryan ruined the surprise, spoiler alert.
They are now announcing a lawsuit against the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Totally separate from my lawsuit, which is great.
There's 60 different groups considering a lawsuit against the Southern Poverty Law Center.
And these guys have just had enough with being accused of being a hate group.
And I saw Kathy Griffin responded to that announcement.
And they showed one of the black guys, Black Proud Boys, and she said, I have some questions here.
Yeah, maybe your narrative is wrong.
Do you ever consider that?
Or some other people were saying, that name is so lame.
Don't they get that?
It sounds like they're total pussies.
Yes.
Is it possible there was an element of humor when the name was decided?
They keep talking about bizarre rituals involving being beaten for, what you can name five serials.
Is it possible there is some fun and jokiness involved in said bizarre ritual?
Multiracial white supremacy is what it is.
And then they went off on Twitter, Kathy Griffin and the likes, talking about how these guys think Mexicans are stealing their jobs.
They don't even have jobs.
A, that's not a thing proud boys say.
And B, they're all employed.
They're all blue-collar.
I find it frustrating dealing with them occasionally, not that I associate with them, FBI, because their spelling and grammar is so shockingly bad because they are blue-collar types.
They're not academics by any means.
And the other thing that annoys me about the talk of Proud Boys is they say, oh, they're known for spreading misogynistic, Islamophobic, blah, blah, blah, rhetoric.
How are they known for spreading this?
How do they spread it exactly?
Are the Knights of Columbus known for spreading things?
They don't have a newsletter they hand out.
They're banned from all social media.
How are they known for spreading a certain type of rhetoric?
Can we hear some of this?
Oh, I like the shirt.
Roger Stone did nothing wrong.
Going through it right now.
We're also looking into legal...
We're also looking at our options to take legal actions against Facebook, the Daily Beast, the BBC, Chase Bank, and Sean King.
Oh, I didn't even know that.
Help us preserve free speech.
Go to stoptheslander.com to join the fight.
The Proud Boys represent the little guys because we are the little guys.
We are your everyday average Americans.
We have plumbers, police officers, carpenters, union workers.
We're from all walks of life when it comes to our families, our job, our friends.
We're going up against a half a billion dollar slander machine.
And this won't be easy.
So that's fantastic news.
And you can tell when you see Enrique talk that this is a guy who's busted his ass his whole life and doesn't do these kind of speeches on a regular basis.
Yet they're known for spreading fascism.
Sorry, I forgot to mention the reason I'm wearing this college shirt is a shout out to John Belushi, Bluto, in Animal House.
find this picture of Bluto wearing the college shirt.
This was his nom de plume, I was going to say.
This is what he wore in the movie Animal House.
And the reason I chose Louie Louie and I wore this shirt is to say that we are the new Animal House.
We are the ones banned from campus.
We are the ones that Burger King hates and wants to throw milkshakes on.
We're the bad guys.
We are the miscreants.
We are the ones on double secret probation.
I mean, I'm literally on double secret probation on YouTube right now.
If I make a mistake within the next 20 days, I'm banned forever.
So I've just not been posting, which is really what they're going for.
But this also applies to Tommy Robinson as the animal hustling, which is why when I went to his first trial last year, I wore this suit.
Do you recognize that suit?
See, everything I, there's a method to my madness at all times, folks.
That suit was an homage to this suit.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'll be brief.
I think he's empty.
The issue here is not whether we broke a few rules or took a few liberties with our female party guests.
We did.
We did.
Well, you can't hold a whole fraternity responsible for the behavior of a few sick, perverted individuals.
I love how the women are loved.
Then shouldn't we blame the whole fraternity system?
And if the whole fraternity system is guilty, then isn't this an indictment of our educational institutions in general?
I put it to you, Greg.
Isn't this an indictment of our entire American society?
Well, you can do what you want to us, but we're not going to sit here and listen to you, bad-mouth the United States of America.
Gentlemen!
Order!
Order!
He's the guy who wrote it.
You're not walking in on this one, mister.
That's enough.
And the thing I love about that speech, too, is he knows he's fried.
He knows he's screwed.
So he's going out in a blaze of glory, which is what Tommy Robinson is doing.
He says, all right, you're not doing Brexit.
The EU is in control of Britain.
Then I'm running for office in the EU.
I'm going to send you a message you can't forget.
And can you imagine the anarchy when he gets into the EU?
Can you imagine how beautiful that will be?
My God.
What an art form.
Anyway, so let's get to talking to Ezra about Tommy.
But before we do that, I want to show you the weirdest thing I've ever seen in my life.
Homeless Gavin, show us the most bizarre video ever made, please.
Hi guys, welcome back to Homeless Gavin videos.
This is the weirdest video I've ever seen in my life.
I don't know who set it up.
Whoever did is a genius.
I'd like to meet them.
I almost don't want to meet them because they're so special.
I imagine a Rick Rubin type character, but who's black and who has a 10-foot taxidermy polar bear in his office and is just like an incredible human being that hates fame and doesn't want to be known for his masterpieces.
Well, here's one of his masterpieces.
And hold on to your socks because it's unbelievable.
Okay, man is looking for his son.
That's normal.
If you lose your son, you'd be scared, right?
Where's my son?
Oh no, where's my son?
Oh my goodness.
People are starting to freak out the restaurant.
Where's my son?
Oh my goodness, where's my son?
Oh, can you...
Sorry, can you please?
Where's my son?
Please let me go, my son.
Oh my God, I can't do this.
I can't do this.
Where's his clothes?
Where's his clothes?
Oh my goodness, get me out.
There's the sun.
We go.
We gotta go.
Oh, shit.
We gotta go.
We gotta go.
We're dealing with levels of comedy here, gentlemen, that is Jedi level.
First of all, you have to set up that child.
Secondly, I call bullshit on that seizure, but some other guy did that seizure.
It's the guy you saw at the beginning.
I mean, where are these people?
It's funny how, you know, you see famous people on TV and they go, I'm a funny man.
I'm Judd Appetow.
I made a bunch of movies.
Yeah, but there are funny ninjas out there who are doing levels of unfathomably brilliant comedy for nothing, for no reason.
Look at this guy.
Just pause.
Just pause.
Pause.
Or maybe a little bit more.
So that guy right there, that's the seizure guy.
That's the guy who decides after you pull the dummy head kid out.
I feel like I'm ruining it, by the way, by explaining it.
But after you pull the dummy head kid out, I am going to lie on the ground and have a seizure.
For what?
For this video?
I mean, if it wasn't for me showcasing it, who would have seen it?
A bunch of people.
It never would have been analyzed.
I'm not saying I'm special, obviously.
I'm saying these guys are special.
Are those police even real?
And then he grabs that weird dummy and he does that.
And then that guy does that.
You know what this is?
And I'm not exaggerating.
This is art.
This is Michelangelo.
This is the Louvre.
This is our generation's Louvre.
This is our generation's Mona Lisa.
You are looking at the highest art available to our generation.
I know older people look back and go, well, fuck you.
I prefer our silly oil paintings.
I'm sorry.
I prefer this.
I prefer his gyrating pelvis.
This is, I don't know, I feel like perfection would be trivializing it.
This is beyond perfection.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I'm taking care of me.
My girl.
I want to talk to Ezra Levant.
He just got back from Britain.
He's done a lot for Tommy Robinson over the years, and the case is very close to his heart.
I don't know why.
I guess because Britain is a, Canada is a Commonwealth of Britain, and as Ezra put it, Britain is his dystopian time machine where he can see what Canada and America will be like in five years.
Here's the deal with Tommy Robinson, I'd like to explain to everyone.
He's not an Islamophobe.
He's not a racist.
He's not a bigot, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
The way he's being portrayed is, I don't want no Muslims coming in my country.
There is radical Islamicization going on in Britain.
They have a massive problem with gangs, with acid attacks, with stabbings, and more importantly, with these grooming gangs where Pakistani Muslim criminals are grooming young girls and raping hundreds of them.
So it's not like there's a group that you have a problem with for no reason.
There is a group that has a disproportionate radical contingent within it, and that radical contingent is threatening the entire British culture forever.
This isn't, I don't know what Mexicans, or what are these wolves doing in my country, I don't like them.
That's how they're being portrayed, and it's not even close to true.
Britain has a Muslim problem.
Muslims are not necessarily a problem in and of themselves, but the way it's working out in Britain is not going well.
Actually, the way it's going in Europe in general is not going well.
Anyway, Tommy is one of the only ones to speak up about this.
And they're all so petrified of being rises that they don't say anything or do anything about it.
And the way that they are persecuting Tommy is more than just a fear of racism.
It's really showing the contempt that the middle class and upper class have for the lower class.
And the lower classes live in these Muslim areas.
Like Tommy's town, Luton, is unrecognizable.
Anyway, Ezra notices this injustice, and he helps him out with lawyers and goes down there and helps fight for the cause.
And he also is helping him run for office.
We need to find out exactly what the office is, because I don't quite understand.
Is it part of the EU?
Is it British Parliament?
We'll ask him about that when we get him on.
But just to keep you up to date, he filmed people, filmed pedophiles.
These are guys who had been about to be convicted.
Their sentence was already, the jury had already deliberated, and they were about to give the sentence to these Pakistani Muslim child rapists.
They were walking into the court.
Tommy filmed them and said like, yo, Roy, you got your gym.
They're screaming obscenities at him and talking about his mother and stuff.
And he's like, yo, Roy, you got your jailbag.
That's as bad as it got, right?
Jailbag is sometimes if you're in minimum security, you can wear sneakers and track pants and stuff.
So on the off chance they were going to get that light of a sentence, they brought their jailbag.
And so he was finding contempt of court for that.
And I went there.
This was last year.
And he was charged.
No trial, really, just sort of whisked off.
He was kept in a 10 by 10 cell where he could eat nothing because the Muslims were poisoning his food.
So he had nothing but a can of tuna and a bit of fruit every day.
He lost 40 pounds.
That's him getting arrested there, yeah.
And by the way, yelling at bad guys as they go to jail for their sentencing, that's a prehistoric tradition.
Shame, shame.
Remember that?
If someone had raped a bunch of kids, if a white guy had raped a bunch of kids, they'd all be screaming and yelling, look at what they do to Roger Stone.
And what's his name?
The other guy who's on his way to sentencing there, the Trump guy, Michael Cohen, is that his name?
They're screaming at him.
Silver was the other corrupt Albany dude screaming at him as he's on his way to court.
The police have to keep the audience away.
They have to keep the mob away as they yell.
That's our right as citizens to yell at child rapists.
Call me a mercenary.
Call me a vigilante, but I think you should be able to say, hey, jerk pedophile.
Anyway, that trial was a joke, and I was there for that.
And I remember at one point, Ezra filmed Tommy.
Find the picture of Tommy Robinson in the window.
They love saying his real name, too.
I'm not falling for it.
Stephen Yaxley Lennon.
Okay, so you can't find this now, but that's from outside, looking into the Old Bailey.
The Old Bailey is the biggest court in the land.
It's where they try Jack the Ripper and mass murderers.
And the fact that someone was there for contempt of court is ridiculous for filming a pedophile, which tons of people do all the time.
And he'd already asked the police if he may do that.
But anyway, Ezra is next to him there, but on the other side of the glass.
He filmed it, and the left-wing press couldn't wait to tattletale and say, that's contempt of court.
What you're doing is illegal.
And you'll see a lot of this, especially from the independent, just bitchy little tattletale journalists who don't really care about Tommy or the trial.
They just care about someone being bad.
Anyway, someone being naughty.
So he was exonerated for that.
He wasn't punished for daring to make a little Twitter video in the staircase of the old Bailey.
So this is him now.
He's live tweeting the old Bailey, the new trial that's going on.
So you're showing that a little early.
The new trial that's going on is a second charge.
It's a different charge.
The new charge is that while he was saying, yo, you got your jailbag, he hurt the pedophile's feelings.
So now that's different.
The first one was, you could have affected the outcome of the trial.
So that's contempt of court.
This new one is specifically about the child rapist, and it's saying you hurt his feelings.
You were mean to him, and that hurt him.
I'm not kidding.
So we have a new trial.
This is all as he's running for office, too, Tommy Robinson.
And Ezra Levant starts tweeting.
That's the tweet you just showed.
He's just tweeting the progress, right?
I'm in courtroom too, the old bail.
You had to go through rigorous security.
Anyway, here we are.
About a third of the way through this short trial, he sees the judge get a paper and look at each other, and then all the judges run out of the room.
And Ezra has a hunch that it's about him.
And yes, it was.
A tattletale lefty journalist said, Ezra's tweeting, which is totally legal.
And the court officers told all the journalists, you're allowed to tweet.
Don't film, don't take pictures, but you can live tweet this as much as you want.
You can text people, whatever you want.
That's your right as a journalist.
But some journalists, I guess, wasn't listening to that and tattletailed on him.
So the court was adjourned, and they all talked about it.
And then they came back and said, yeah, you're allowed to do that.
But the thing that drives me nuts about this is the focus.
Like, there's a radical Islamic problem in Britain, and the focus is, well, the guy who called it out, is he going too far?
Is he being mean?
Or there is a trial going on about contempt of court.
It's a kangaroo court.
It's a total mockery.
Well, is any of Tommy's supporters breaking any silly little court rules?
I have to go tattle on them.
And totally separately, the political campaign he's running has been an absolute madhouse with mobs of Muslims and Antifa showing up, attacking people.
They started a new trend, thanks to Tommy, called Milkshaking.
Some Muslim kid threw a milkshake on Tommy.
Have you got that picture?
I think I emailed it to you.
Yeah, they threw a milkshake on Tommy.
Burger King, as we said the other day, said that's cool.
We got tons of milkshakes.
And then they did Nigel Farage.
Now they're doing Sargon of Akkad.
And the left loves it.
They love these petty attacks.
They love punch a Nazi or whatever by hitting someone in the back of the head when they're not looking or pepper spraying their face or hitting them with a bike lock.
But it's just a mob of upper-class imbeciles screaming racism at someone who's trying to save their country.
And Ezra has been on the front lines of this entire thing.
We'll get Tommy too, but he's not an easy guy to get a hold of.
And we'll ask him some of these questions.
Is there any hope of getting Ezra on?
Yes, there is.
Music Ezra, are you there, sir?
I am.
Hi, how are you?
I'm good.
We were just talking about all the tattletales in Britain.
There was the last time we were both there together, and they said, oh, he was in the old Bailey taking pictures.
And that went to the courts.
You were almost prosecuted for that.
And then in the new trial, which is equally ridiculous, you dared to live tweet, and they tattled him and shut down the proceedings while they investigated.
What a bunch of people.
We take two minutes on that.
It was shocking.
I mean, I'm here in Canada, but I've attended this very senior criminal court called the Old Bailey.
It's so serious, high security, there's even a dungeon underneath it.
So I got all my credentials.
I've reported from there several times.
I've talked to everyone from security even to the judges' offices to make sure I'm following the rules.
So many rules over there.
Because I like to live tweet the proceedings because you're not allowed to take a camera into court, but you can tweet up a storm, and I do.
So I was doing that for, I mean, I've done that so many times, and there I am in the old Bailey, straining to hear the case being made by the Attorney General, who wants to prosecute Tommy again for contempt of court again, even though he was already wrongfully convicted and wrongfully imprisoned.
It's crazy.
So I'm typing, I'm straining to listen.
Everyone is paying such attention to the lawyer.
You've got two judges, you've got all the clerks, you got all the lawyers, everyone's paying attention.
And then suddenly I notice a note was handed to a judge.
And the judges stand up and leave the court.
And for a flicker of a moment, I thought, oh, is there some security threat?
Because there was a terrorism inquiry going on elsewhere in the court.
But I thought, no, this place is safer than Fort Knox.
So there's this five or ten minute break, and I go up to the clerk and I said, what's going on?
I said, I just had a hunch, Gavin.
I had this little niggling doubt because I knew I was in the land of Orwell.
I said, clerk, the judges that know that that's got nothing to do with me, does it?
Like, it was a narcissistic vanity.
I thought, why on earth would that have anything to do with me?
I mean, who would ask that?
And the clerk said, yeah.
The clerk said that someone had complained that I was live tweeting the court, which I have had approval in five different ways.
Explicitly say you may live tweet when you're walking into that.
And I mean, I was told that on this visit as well as others, and I knew that.
I've done it many times.
But so the judges, I said to the clerk, well, please go and tell the judges that I'm happy to present in their private chambers and explain myself.
But I did get permission from this person and this person and this person and this person.
And I have no desire to be disruptive at all.
So I'm happy to appear before them in private chambers.
I'm not looking to make a fuss to explain myself.
And the clerk said, okay, I'll go tell them.
So the clerk went back, met with the judge, and came back and said, it's all right, don't worry about it.
And so the two judges came back out and said, you know, we had a note about live tweeting.
That's fine.
You know, I was credentialed through their press office.
And I think she said something about this having been approved years ago for anyone.
And then they got right back to the trial.
And I thought three things.
I thought, first of all, instead of paying attention to the substance of the trial, these media party journalists were looking on their phones at me and getting really mad that I was on a different narrative than them.
I wasn't anti-Tommy.
So they're not even paying attention to the trial.
They literally interrupted a trial so important.
A man's freedom hangs in the balance.
He could be sentenced again to prison.
These journalists have no standing.
They're not parties.
They're not lawyers.
And they have the audacity to interrupt Someone's trial, but not just with anything.
Like, judge, there's a fire, stop the trial.
Okay, good.
Thanks for interrupting.
But what was the fire they wanted, and what was the fire hose they wanted?
By bringing this to the judge's attention in such a bizarre and interruptive way, they could only mean one thing: they wanted me to be held in contempt of court and perhaps imprisoned like Tommy was.
And this was being done by so-called journalists.
Their chief mission in court that day was certainly not to report on the facts and not even to debate me if they so chose, but to have me thrown in prison.
That's what you're saying when you're telling a judge in the middle, hey, teacher, he's tweeting, except for it's not a teacher, it's a judge, and the remedy is not a ruler hitting your knuckles.
It's being thrown in jail.
That is the state of journalism in the United Kingdom in 2019.
Ezra, do you think it would be the worst thing in the world for you to lose 40 pounds on a steady diet of tuna and fruit for 40 days?
I literally made that joke to Tommy himself during this five-minute break.
I walked over to Tommy.
First person I walked to was Tommy's lawyer.
I said, what's the break about?
He said, I don't know.
And I said, do you think it's my tweeting?
And then I started making jokes.
I thought there's no way that's possible.
So I said, I could stand to lose 40 pounds in prison like Tommy did because he was starved in prison.
Of course, you don't want to lose 40 pounds by starvation.
So I was joking with Tommy and John, his lawyer, and then I thought, oh my God, I'm joking.
But that's probably just what happened.
And then I went to the clerk, and that's what happened.
So I was literally joking how absurd it would be until I realized, no, I'm saying something that in North America sounds like a joke, but in the United Kingdom, 2019, that is exactly what's happening.
I had this crazy hunch that was more of vanity than clown world, and it was true.
You can't make jokes anymore.
And even the joke about you losing 40 pounds, these journalists ultimately do want you to go to prison, and you would not be able to eat the food.
So our jokes are their reality.
That's the dictionary definition of clown world.
I got to ask you, I think as North Americans are a tiny bit confused on what exactly Tommy is running for.
What's the seat?
What's the position?
Sure.
Americans have probably heard of Brexit.
It was a vote in 2016, about six months before the American election, where Brit said, we want to get out of the European Union.
Because it's not just a symbolic club like the UN is.
It's as if the United Nations could actually pass laws that bound the member countries.
So the EU has 751 members of the European Parliament, MEP.
That's a little parliament in Brussels, Belgium.
But the UK only has, I think, 73 of those.
So they get outvoted on everything.
But the laws passed in Brussels, Belgium apply in England.
So Germany, France, other countries like that can literally pass a law.
The Brits will be outvoted 10 to 1, and the law becomes the law in England.
And it's open borders, and it's all these things.
And so the entire establishment was against Brexit.
They wanted to remain.
But Brexit won.
The largest voting number in British history, 17.4 million Brits voted to Brexit.
But for three years, the governing Conservatives, even though they held this referendum on leaving, they ragged the puck.
And the UK was supposed to leave on March 29th, and they didn't.
Imagine if Donald Trump won the election, but for three years, Barack Obama and Michelle Obama just refused to move out of the White House.
And finally, when the day came when they said they would, they'd say, yeah, we're not going to go.
Maybe we need a do-over.
So it's not just 2016 USA rage.
It's that rage, if the results of that election were being annulled and voided.
And so these MEP, Member of the European Parliament elections that are happening Thursday, May 23rd, those elections shouldn't even be happening because the UK is supposed to be out of this crazy parliament.
But Tommy's saying, well, hell with it.
If we're still in this joke of a parliament, I'm going to run.
And I'm literally going to be a bull in the china shop and I'm going to send my message.
I'll never forget.
So that's what Tommy's running for public office.
And I don't know if Tommy would stand a chance in a normal election.
But first of all, everyone's outraged that they're even in the UK, the EU.
And second of all, eight people will be elected in his region of northwest England.
So he probably won't come in first or second or third or even fourth or even fifth or even sixth or seventh.
But he just has to come in in the top eight.
Yeah.
And historically, in the last two elections, that bottom eighth guy has won with less than 10% of the vote.
One time it was just over 9%.
One time it was just over 8%.
Can Tommy Robinson get 8%, 9-10% of the vote in Northwest England on May 23rd?
I think he can.
So to be clear here, he would be part of the EU as a representative of Northwestern England, like Manchester, Liverpool kind of area.
Exactly.
So he would be one of eight MEPs from Northwest England who would be representing that region in this UN-style, global government-style European parliament in Brussels.
Now, that would last.
Go ahead.
Would he move to Brussels?
Would he be living in Brussels?
No, he would probably have an apartment there, and that's where the parliament is, and he would have a staff and an office there, and he would have a staff and an office in Manchester, probably.
It would be like a congressman in the United States.
They have their home district office, and then they have their Washington, D.C. office.
They have a staff in both.
We used to have a journalist who was an MEP, Janice Atkinson is her name.
And if I'm recalling correctly, she said just her office budget alone, I'm going from memory, so forgive me if I'm wrong, was £2 million.
Staff, travel, expenses.
So this would give Tommy resources to promote his cause.
And he says his chief cause would be freedom of speech.
That is exciting.
So I heard that the slogan for the campaign is: what was it?
Send them a message they'll never forget.
Exactly.
That's beautiful.
All right.
So if you want to play Dirty Pool, fine, we'll play Dirty Pool.
I'm in the EU now.
Ezra, I love it, and I love all the hard work you're doing over there.
I'm really impressed that you've worked so hard to help Tommy.
You're an integral part of this campaign.
Well, I got to correct you there.
I mean, I appreciate the compliments, but we have a bit of a dividing line.
I mean, we are sympathetic, but our journalist over there, we've sent, I mean, listen, listen, I'm not going to deny that we're big Tommy supporters, and I'm not going to pretend to deny it.
I'm just saying that his election campaign has to be done carefully and by the books.
So it means no donations from foreigners, so we can't crowdfund for him.
Oh, okay.
And our journalist, Jessica Svetzenowski, who's over there, has to be independent from him and report only to our editors.
So I just wanted to put that in there because people will say, oh, you're getting support from foreigners.
No.
In fact, Tommy cannot accept donations from anyone other than Brits.
That's the only reason I'm quarreling with you.
I'm not nitpicking, but you know you're going to comb through every single donation to Tommy and check for any foreign money.
And so we're not helping him on this one.
But we've helped him in the past with other things.
I got you.
Yeah.
We're in a nitpicking dystopia.
So you're not allowed to stray from the path in any way, shape, or form.
It's like we're constantly being audited.
So I understand your correction.
Sorry.
But you have been a supporter of free speech, and that has helped Tommy tangentially, sir.
Yeah, sorry.
Listen, I'm not trying to deny anything.
No, no, no, I'm on the same.
And we did, as you know, last year, we crowdfunded his legal defense.
And I believe that if he were not released from prison after 10 weeks when he was in solitary confinement, we were joking earlier about him losing 40 pounds in prison.
I could stand to lose 40 pounds.
Tommy couldn't.
He came out.
He was gaunt.
He had medical issues, both physical and psychological.
He was put in a little cage 23 and a half hours a day.
He was put in solitary.
He was not allowed to go to the gym or to church or anything like that.
And for that half hour a day he was released, he had to run around like a hamster in a hamster wheel in a cage that all the other prisoners were screaming epithets at him.
So 23 and a half hours he's in silence in a box.
And then half an hour a day, he's shouted at by people wishing death on him.
That's what he was, I mean, anyone else in the world, that would be a major human rights violation.
Any other living creature?
If that was a dog, it would be animal cruelty.
That's a good point.
And remember, all of this was for what?
Did he commit a crime?
No.
He was standing outside a court in Leeds where a rape gang was being convicted that day.
So the trial was over.
Jury was rendering his verdict.
He was outside the court saying the names of the accused, just giving his political commentary.
He was swooped up and imprisoned for that.
By the way, that's what this trial at the old Bailey was last week.
And he has to go back to court on July 4th, believe it or not, for another hearing about causing anxiety to those rapists because he asked them as they were walking into prison, sorry, walking into court, he said, how do you feel about the court case?
So this caused them anxiety.
And that's why the Attorney General is still prosecuting Tommy.
Swear to God, I heard it with my own ears.
They're not saying Tommy upset the trial or interfered with the trial.
That is, he did not.
That's a matter of fact.
They're saying he caused stress and anxiety by saying mean things to these serial rapists as they walked into court.
So Clown World for sure.
The United Kingdom is so far gone, my friend.
I would just say to all your listeners, if you haven't been to London in a while, make a vacation.
Even if your kids are young, take them there.
Have them see Big Ben Parliament, London Bridge, Trafalgar Square.
See those things before they're, you know, accidentally torched like the Notre Dame Cathedral.
See those things before they're blown up.
I predict that within 10 years, one of the edifices I just listed will be destroyed by a terrorist attack.
It wouldn't surprise me if it was a Churchill statue or Admiral Nelson, but see London now because it's not going to be the same in five, 10 years.
I think you could say the same thing about Europe in general.
Ezra, thanks very much for coming on the show.
We really appreciate it.
All right, cheers.
Cheers, buddy.
Cheers, buddy.
That's Ezra Levant.
Wait, I just did Jesse Ventura trying to do my Ezra Levant.
Do your Ezra Levant?
The old Barry.
I would take your family to London Bridge and Old Ben before it's old Muhammad.
I went to the trial, the judge master.
Old Ben?
Big Ben.
And don't you mean the old Bailey?
What did you call it?
The old Barry?
The old Barry.
You don't have earholes, do you?
You don't take anything in.
It's just the brain part.
It absorbs just the sound of his voice and not the words.
You know what I forgot to get to in the intro?
I saw the show Billions the other night.
And all my neighbors are in finance because I'm wealthy.
And finance people all watch the show Billions.
So I thought, well, it's on.
I was waiting for my wife to finish putting down the kids so we could watch a movie, but she always falls asleep doing that.
And it takes too long.
Anyway, I'm watching Billions for way longer than I should be.
And it is Jezebel.
It's Huffington Post.
It's Daily Beast.
It is garbage, feminist, crap.
Way more than you thought it would be.
It really is juvenile.
I call it mom porn, secretary porn, but it's not about spanking a secretary in the butt.
It's secretary's fantasies.
And secretary's fantasies are men just fawning all over them and them going, yeah, whatever, shit for brains.
So I couldn't transpose the video, but I did take pictures of my television.
And I want to show you, this is just six minutes of the show before I had to turn it off in a rage.
This is what people are watching these days.
Okay, so this guy, and if you're familiar with the show, forgive me, this guy is obsessed with her, and by the way, she's a solid 5.9, and she's a midget too, and she's old, right?
And which is that's carefully chosen.
They want to choose someone who's not out of your reach for your fantasy.
So, this is basically she's the target audience, right?
So, he makes her, brings her like an allanger, an Americano, every morning, perfectly espressoed.
And he hands it to her, and she calls him an over-caffeinated stalker and tells him to scram.
After she takes the coffee, of course.
And he's happy to take that because all men are bitches.
By the way, the bald guy in the background, he's about to make moves on her next.
Okay, so next picture.
No, no, that's the last one.
Oh.
Do they come in out of order?
That's weird.
Why would they do that?
No, that's not the next one.
The next one has a bald guy in it.
Yeah.
Okay.
So this one.
And then he sits down with her.
That's the guy I just showed you in the background.
He sits down and he goes, I feel like we had some chemistry there.
There was a vibe.
And they had done some meditation yoga retreat stuff.
And I guess he was sort of lying on her chest like that as part of the thing.
I don't know, like catch me or whatever.
And she just goes, you got your, your dick is hard because your head was in between my tits.
And he's sort of like, oh, well, I guess I'm not getting her.
All right.
So next, go to the office scene with the Asian guy where, so then, oh, by the way, she's heard, then he comes into the room, right?
This Asian dude is trembling with fear.
And look at the boss's boot on the coffee table.
It's like, what do you want, bitch?
Like, where is this world?
Where does this happen?
These badass, these badass female bosses telling you you suck.
So maybe that's the new vice since Shane stepped down.
But he says, I heard there was a hedge fund here called, I don't know what it's called, Forest Berger Frog Progress.
I forget what it's called.
But he's literally trembling when he comes into the thing.
And then she goes, that program doesn't exist, loser.
And they both laugh at him.
And he thanks them and then trembles out of the room.
All right, now you can just choose anyone.
Oh, yeah.
So then she decides she's going to go on a date with the baldy guy because she'll have sex with him.
And then she'll get out on this secret hedge fund in case it exists.
It doesn't exist, by the way.
It was a trick.
And where do they go?
They go to an axe throwing date.
And on this axe throwing date, after she throws that, she walks up to him and takes his beer out of his hand, you know, as women do, and starts swigging it.
And he goes, wow.
She gets the bullseye, by the way, of course.
And he goes, wow.
And she goes, yeah, I came here to kick ass and take names.
And I'm all out of names, so I'm just kicking ass.
And then she grabs a beer out of the bucket, opens it, and hands it over to him.
You know how women are, always taking your beer and then giving you a beer?
What is going on?
So she uses him for sex to get into this fund.
And by the way, is incredibly successful at it and is almost poached by another.
They're all working in finance.
So she almost gets poached.
So then go show any other one.
Show the bald chick.
So then we see this chick.
I think her name is Tip.
No, the other picture of her.
Yeah, so this chick is a genius.
And I think her name's, I think she runs Taylor Maid or something like that.
Anyway, she outsmarts this guy who wants to buy the Chrysler building because China's going to buy.
She's just an absolute genius.
And she runs this firm with two other women, a black lesbian and another woman.
So they get the account.
They get the Chrysler Building account.
How much is the Chrysler Building worth?
A billion?
So they get that account, and then they're so happy that what do they do?
They start making out an interracial lesbian love scene in the middle.
And you're just like, what financial firm is this that's run by interracial lesbians who are buying the Chrysler building?
None of that is an exaggeration.
This is the garbage we're watching?
And then, you know, I put on the trailer for Toy Story 4, which my kids are going to have to watch, or at least my youngest.
I'm watching that.
And yes, Keanu Reeves is showing up, and it looks like he can ride a motorbike, thank God.
But it's all women kicking ass and taking names.
And I know I sound like someone who doesn't want women ever doing anything successfully.
It's not about that.
It's about you ramming down this one archetype, this kick-ass broad, just down our necks again and again, making fake women that we've never met and making them into a normal part of modern society.
There's not these interracial lesbians running big finance firms.
They're not using men for sex and laughing in their faces.
Look at that.
Okay, Woody's a goof.
Oh, I'm a loser.
There he is.
Plop.
I'm scared all the time.
Roger that.
And then they've got Buzz Whiteyer, the buffoon, who thinks he can fight.
Now look at this chick.
Rocking and rolling, sliding down on her little Bo Peep thing.
I'm a badass.
Oh, look at Potato Head.
I'm a stupid old head.
Do I need to be worried?
My guys are better.
And then like every male.
Look at this.
Oh, he's doing something heroic.
I guess males can be.
Nope, boy.
Into the toilets you go, you loser.
Bonk.
And then look at Bo Peep.
All right, let's do this.
Oh, here's my favorite part.
Look at this.
So Evil Knievo shows up, and he's half that guy who died, stuntman Dave, whatever.
Evil Knievel?
Oh, oh, Super Dave.
Super Dave Osborne.
Look at this.
Look at this scene.
Shoop, I'll pick up.
Look at that.
Okay, that's enough.
Tarzan.
The spoon is gender neutral, also.
Okay, great.
But that was a Tarzan move where he swoops down and picks up Jane.
So she goes, she says to Woody, put your arms around me.
Hold on.
He's like, I can't.
I'm a dumb man.
Whoop.
And then she zooms up and then zooms back down and picks him up and brings him to safety.
Thanks, ladies.
Thanks, Little Bo Peep.
That's what I think of when I think of Little Bo Peep.
Tarzan.
Oi Vey.
there you go.
All right, we're out of time, folks.
We swallowed up a lot with Tommy, but it was important we all got on the same page.
