*phone rings*
Hey, this is Jimmy.
Who is this?
Hey, man, this is Jeff Bridges.
Get the fuck up.
Oh, hi, Mr. Bridges.
What a surprise.
I don't believe we've ever chatted before.
Yeah, no, man.
It just seems like, you know, you talk to the same people over and over, and I just figured I'd shake it up a little bit.
You gave a very moving interview recently about your struggles during the pandemic.
Yeah, man.
It was a real trip.
And not a good one.
I got diagnosed with lymphoma right before COVID.
So I was doing the old chemo thing, and, you know, and that goes.
And chemo really, you know, it does a number on your immune system.
So I caught COVID and I had it bad, man.
Like, I felt I was headed to the fucking grave.
That sounds like a nightmare.
It was, man.
I'm not going to lie.
But, you know, I got over it.
The tumor has shrunk down to a pretty cool size now.
And I got a TV show coming out called The Old Man.
Not a fan of the title, really.
But, you know, so, you know, life goes on, man.
What?
What?
Well, it's nice that you have such a positive attitude about things.
Hey, you know, that's what it's all about, man.
Exactly right.
Having a positive attitude about things.
It's like you took the words right out of my mouth.
Okay.
And I guess the reason I'm calling is that, you know, I want to spread some of that positive energy to you, man.
Me?
Yeah.
You.
I've been watching your, you know, your show on YouTube.
And, you know, interesting shit, man.
Really makes you think.
But you get so fucking angry, man.
Yeah.
Well, I suppose I do.
See, that's what I'm talking about.
You gotta let this shit go.
See, all the externals.
You can't control them.
The best you can do is to not let the externals control you.
This sounds like a bunch of new age claptrap.
Sorry, pal.
Have you ever tried doing your show Not Angry?
*laughter*
Sorry, Jeff Bridges.
I don't think I could do a show about how we are constantly lied to by our government and the media and not get a little peeved.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I understand.
I get it, man.
But hey, let's do a little experiment, you and me.
What's the number one thing that you're mad about right now?
The number one thing I'm mad about right now is the press secretary and the Biden administration lying about the cause of immigration to the United States, saying it's communism instead of their own foreign policy.
Okay, yeah, yeah, that's a bummer, man.
That's a real bummer.
But now let's take three deep breaths and try.
Just try not being mad about it.
Okay.
Okay.
Here comes a third one.
Okay.
Did it work?
No, Jeff Bridges.
I am still mad about that.
Well, shit, man.
It worked for me.
I don't get it.
Jeff, I think a lot of the reason people tune into my show is that they're also mad about these things, and it gives them a sense of solidarity, seeing me equally angry.
Things are messed up, Mr. Bridges.
Sometimes anger is warranted.
Yeah, yeah, okay, okay, calm down, man.
I guess you're right.
But, you know, I was put through the ringer the past two years.
I'm not, you know, I'm not mad or bitter.
I'm a zen about it, man.
Yes, but with all due respect, you are a famous actor, and you probably have the best health care available.
And you probably came out of that situation.
That would have bankrupted most Americans.
You probably came out of that with millions of dollars still in the bank.
Well, yeah.
So good for you and everything, but your rosy perspective may not apply to most people, dude.
Hey, man, I'm just trying to fucking get out of here, man.
Why are you being such a fucking bummer?
Jeff Bridges, are you getting mad?
Well, shit, man, I am.
Only you could do that to me.
How does it feel?
It feels fucking great, man.
I gotta take a break from this rosy-ass venge every now and again.
How about you calling occasionally when you're feeling too chill, and I'll tell you about some stuff that's happening in our world that'll make you furious.
I like it.
You know, kind of like a reverse therapy type of deal.
Exactly.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, you got it, man.
You know, but just a little bit at a time.
I don't have a tolerance yet.
I got to have to work my way up to, you know, heavier doses.
You know how, you know, I sure do.
I'm going to go easy on you at first.
All right.
Sounds good, man.
Well, I'll let you go.
And you just keep on keeping on, man.
Hey, wait a minute.
Fuck it.
I'd be fucking enraged, man.
Ha ha!
Establishment media sets of artists fighting so good luck the bullshit they can't afford comedians and jumps the medium and hits them head on it's the chimney door show I don't know if you know pandemic is over and how do I know it because Joe Biden the president of these these United States said so on TV here we go Ms. President first Detroit auto show in three
years.
Yeah.
Is the pandemic over?
The pandemic is over.
We still have a problem with COVID.
We're still doing a lot of work on it.
It's what the pandemic is over.
If you notice, no one's wearing masks.
Everybody seems to be in pretty good shape.
And so I think it's changing.
And I think this is a perfect example of it.
So, by the way, immediately Biden's declaration that the pandemic is over was not part of his initial plan remarks and caught several of his own health officials by surprise per two sources, and they've already started walking it back.
When he said the pandemic is over, he didn't mean medically, he just meant it's not cool anymore.
It's like, ah, that pandemic, it's so over.
I think that's how he was saying it.
So he's causing a lot of stir by saying that the pandemic is over.
So what we wanted to go is from a pandemic to an endemic.
And no one really knows when that happens.
So if you're looking for a scientist to tell you, nobody can tell you when that happens.
You know what happens?
When people decide it happened.
When people decide to start living again their lives instead of being in fear of a virus that has a mortality rate, a death, most people who are over the age of life expectancy that die from this, and they have four comorbidities.
So if you want to still run around being afraid of this virus for the rest of your life, you're welcome to.
But even demented Joe is telling you the pandemic is over.
Yeah.
And immediately, Ron DeSantis said Biden declared the pandemic is over.
So when will he let those discharge from the military due to the vax mandates return to protecting our country?
When is he going to let those New York hospital state workers go back to work?
New York just fired a thousand more hospital workers.
I just got a text.
Let me read this text.
Make sure I'm not making this up.
Yeah, this is from Ethan Klein.
He says, New York City just fired almost 1,000 more teachers and aides for being unvaccinated.
Please don't be desensitized to the horrific discrimination that's still happening.
Wow.
They're still doing that.
And that's not based on science.
So they like to wag their finger at MAGA and Florida and Texas for not following the science.
New York is not following the science and they have almost never have followed the science.
None of them.
And Andrew Cuomo is a murderer.
Which is way worse than you could say about DeSantis or Abbott or anybody else.
Andrew Cuomo should be in jail for murdering people.
What do you let me bring in my panel?
What do you think?
Is it over?
Go ahead, Jackson.
I just find this interview incredible because you got to imagine they probably did like 50 takes of this single interview for 60 minutes.
But even then, directly after the interview airs, you know, I see like three different articles right off the bat from the White House press secretary saying, well, that's not exactly what he meant about Taiwan.
That's not exactly what he meant about the pandemic.
It's like, well, what does he mean?
How can you guys not get a coherent message out there?
Who knows?
Who knows what this means?
You know, we clearly know what's going on with COVID, but who knows what they're going to tell us next.
Yeah.
And did you hear what he said right after?
The pandemic's over, but we still got a lot of work to do, you know, which means the national emergency still exists, right?
The public health emergency still exists, which is coming from the HHS, which means the money in the gravy train keeps going.
If you're not paying attention to what's going on in the WHO right now, they're trying to still amend their international health regulations and bring in this treaty where they can take global control by splitting up the world into regions.
And anybody who's participating in the WHO and part of this treaty or part of these regulations has to give over their sovereignty.
Their constitution is voided so that the FARC these they're called FERCs, the regions, where the WHO will then take control of the country and decide what to do in the case of another pandemic.
So all this stuff is still going on.
Not to forget in your backyard, gentlemen, because now I live in Vegas because I got the hell out of California.
Draconian crazy laws are still in play.
They have that kind of Julian Assange law where they're being able to take disinformation people down, including doctors, and punishing them by taking away their medical licenses.
And they're still trying to push the 12-year-old is allowed to get the vaccine without his parents knowing what not.
That stuff is still in play.
So this is far from over.
And they're going to continue to censor everybody out there.
And like you mentioned, still the federal workers are still obligated to get the jab or they get fired.
A lot of people in the medical industry, we still have those SEALs and people in the military who are still fighting this.
So even though they say it's over for political gain, so they get the people out there that will go and vote for them behind the scenes.
And really just on paper, there's a lot of stuff still going on where COVID is far from over.
Well, friend of the show, Dr. Aaron Carity says President Biden announced on 60 Minutes that the pandemic is over.
I concur.
It has long been over.
But why then is the president continuing the national state of emergency?
Is it because the president gains access to an additional 136 statutory emergency powers?
Or is it to support the emergency youth authorization vaccine medication gravy train?
I think it's both those things.
Or is it the Medicare payment to hospitals for every identified COVID case gravy train?
Or the PCR testing bonanza.
Either the emergency is over or it's not.
Can't have it both ways just for political maneuvering.
Well, that's exactly what they're doing.
But just, hey, cut Joe Biden a break.
He doesn't even know which way to walk off stage after a speech.
You'd expect him to figure out all this pandemic stuff too?
Come on.
You know, Jimmy, there's still like 30 national emergencies still going on.
And in the case of a national emergency, Congress is supposed to meet every six months in a joint session to discuss what's going on so the public can know.
They haven't done it once since he signed over, since Trump.
Trump started the national emergency, you know, Mr. Operation Warp Speed guy.
And you just mentioned something that's so important because all these other gravy trains still going.
I'm calling it the testing industrial complex.
I mean, it's crazy, but get on a plane to go here.
You got to take a test.
You got to do it over there.
You got to do it here.
You know, there's still places that you're obligated to take a test.
They're sending all these tests to everybody's home.
Somebody's paying for that.
Yeah, we are.
So there's so much money.
The gravy train is running and everybody's still getting greased.
So they're not going to stop it.
Friend of the show, Dr. Jay Bhattachara, says President Biden is right.
The pandemic emergency is over.
Research for better treatment should continue, but the lockdowns, restrictions, and fear-mongering need to stop.
History will remember poorly those in public health who have been blind to the devastating harms caused by the lockdowns.
Also, Nicole Sapier, MD, she says, new President Biden said he believes the COVID-19 pandemic is over due to any remaining mask and vaccine mandate should be null and void immediately.
Future vaccines, treatments, tests should undergo complete FDA review and not the expedited under the emergency.
How can you say the pandemic is over and then still have people getting vaccinated under the emergency use authorization?
Those are contradictory, and we all know they're contradictory, but we're being run by gangsters.
We're being run by fucking criminals.
And that's why he did that.
In case you didn't know, hey, Jennifer Say says, she's a blue check.
She says, if the pandemic is over, as Biden declared, just in time for the midterms, she has three questions.
The first question is, 10 states, including California, Illinois, and Washington, still justify having emergency orders in place.
That's because there's an even worse virus out there, Jennifer.
It's called MAGA.
Her second question is: why in New York can't unvaxed kids play school and sports?
Because we're punishing them.
Duh.
They're unvaccinated.
Her third question is, why is Head Start still masking toddlers?
Because the point of Head Start is to get a head start on wearing masks for no reason and all other acts of obedience.
That's why.
But there's some people still, there's, I will never, people backlashed against Biden over this.
Of course.
Turner did.
Nina Turner did.
What did she say?
She said, she said, the stats don't lie.
We're still in the pandemic.
People are still dying.
Something like that.
No, Nina, the stats have been the same for a year.
We haven't been in a pandemic for a year, but the same corrupt, you know, authoritarian policies are what are continuing.
That's what's continuing.
This was always a pandemic of the elderly and those with comorbidities.
That's who this is a pandemic for.
And we should have been using the Barrington Declaration, which has targeted protection to people who are at the most risk.
They're still doing Blake.
Everybody needs a vaccine.
Everybody's at equal risk.
We're not at evil.
I am not at the same risk as a 94-year-old woman with a bad heart dementia, diabetes, and another comorbidity.
We're not.
I'm not at the same risk.
Not even close.
Unless you've been drinking a lot of LaCroix.
That's right.
And coconut gin.
So there's people saying they're never going to vote for him over this.
And then here's a professional pant shitter, my favorite COVID pant shitter, Walker Bragman.
I was going to bring him up, and I refit, and you got it.
This is great.
He says, Joe Biden has presided over more preventable COVID deaths than his predecessor.
Why did I just say Trump than Trump, precisely because he engaged in this kind of denial?
Trump wants fucking credit for the vaccine.
What denial?
No, I am sorry to say that COVID is not over, non-doctor person says.
Rocky Bellinger says, the current strain of COVID is less deadly than the annual flu.
Do you want to shut down the country for something that's less lethal than the annual annual flu?
You are embarrassing yourself, the fear-mongering Neolib shit.
He says, no, I'm not saying that.
I'm just reading Rocky Bellinger because I am certainly not going to go against YouTube guidelines and say that the COVID is the flu.
I'm not saying that at all.
I'm just saying, I'm just reporting on a Twitter fight.
That's not what I'm saying.
I'm saying COVID is way worse than the flu.
That's what I'm saying.
But Walker responds by saying, we had more COVID deaths last month than the flu deaths.
And he doesn't ever link.
Never.
Never, there's never a link when he talks about all the deaths that are happening.
You know why?
Because he's a shitty reporter.
Because if he actually was a good reporter, he would fucking look into that bullshit statistic instead of repeating it uncritically because that's a bullshit fucking statistic.
And you know, even a pothead comedian in his basement knows that.
But you know who doesn't?
People who consider themselves actual reporters.
Do some actual reporting and try to debunk the fucking government's numbers, not repeat them unquestionably.
That's the opposite of journalism.
And even a comedian knows that.
I'm better at comedy than you, and I'm better at journalism than you.
Let's do it.
Want to do a third thing?
You're better at tweeting than him too, as well, because I mean, yes, very much so.
If you look who's giving these statistics, and it's very easy to manipulate these statistics, we've been looking at this from the get-go.
Pfizer once had to pay one of the hugest settlements ever for manipulating data to the public.
You know, Johnson and Johnson had to pay a huge settlement for giving people mesothelioma in Africa.
These are criminal corporate big pharma companies.
And these are the same people that all these neo-progressives or whatever you want to call Walker Bragman and his group right now that were yelling and screaming at big pharma for Medicare for all for years.
And now they've acquiesced and bent the need to.
Now they're unpaid big pharma propagandists.
And they don't even, they do it gladly.
I mean, that shows you how propaganda works.
It worked like a charm.
What they're doing now is the equivalent of going, if they're at Jonestown, they would be going back for a refill.
That's what they're doing.
And if you don't know what Jonestown is, look it up.
Kool-Aid.
Kool-Aid.
That's right.
They're going back for a second, helping a Kool-Aid.
If the pandemic is over, does that mean that we're going to get human testing on that most recent jab update?
And we're not going to just settle for the testing on eight mice.
No, that's, and, and, and people are still pretending that this new bivalent flu shot or COVID shot is just like a flu shot because they can update it without human trials.
They're nothing alike.
Yeah.
They're nothing alike.
And Walker's one of those guys too.
It's all fucking, these guys don't know their asshole from a hole in the ground when it comes to COVID, when it comes to masks, when it comes to vaccines, when it comes to herd immunity, when it comes to leaky vaccines, when it comes to viral escape.
They don't know the first thing about anything.
I advise people like Walker to go watch my interview with Dr. Robert Malone.
Everything he said in that thing over a year and a half ago now has been proven to be true.
And a fucking dumb pothead comedian knew that before you did.
Over a year before the rest of the world knew it.
Why?
Because I wasn't ingesting big pharma propaganda after I got injured by the vax.
That's what it took me to wake up.
But guess what I did?
All my friends continue to put their head in the sand and be gutless wonders.
They still don't have a critique.
Still don't have a critique of Fauci, of Collins, of Big Pharma, of the boost.
Even the booster.
You know, the head of the vaccine department at the FDA and her number one deputy resigned over the boosters.
Still, not one video for my good comedy friends about vaccines, boosters, not one critique.
The biggest story of their entire life.
And they turned into government propagandists for it.
The biggest story of their life.
And they fucking missed it.
They tucked their tail and they ran away from it.
Well, guess who didn't tuck his tail and run away from it?
This show.
I almost referred to myself in the third person.
That's okay.
The one question I would ask.
That's all right, Jimmy.
The one question I would ask, if I had one question to ask Walker Bragman, because I've asked Walker Bragman to have a conversation come on my show.
And he won't.
No, he blocked me.
I don't even know how you got that tweet.
You know, because I've been blocked for quite some time.
And big ups to Rocky Bellinger over there from Michigan.
Throwing it out, Rocky B. But the one question, if I had one question to ask these guys, I would say then, if these shots or these jabs are okay and the boosters are okay, then why do they still have qualified immunity?
That's right.
And leave it at that.
That's right.
My question would be, how have you shilled this hard for Big Pharma but still not gotten a job offer from MSNBC?
That's what they want, Jackson.
Big Pharma job.
So here, my friend Megan Maureen says, watching the Covidians freak out about Biden saying the pandemic is over is entertaining.
They are clinging to the last thread of relevance they felt they had.
Don't worry.
You can still stand with Ukraine.
That's the tweet of the day.
Yeah.
That's the tweet of the day.
Awesome.
Well said.
That one on the internet.
Well said.
It's something to watch people who call themselves lefties crave for authoritarianism.
Literally end friendships because I didn't want authoritarianism.
It's the weirdest thing.
By the way, you're not a lefty anymore.
You're a fucking lemming.
That doesn't, you're not a lefty anymore.
If you go along with mandates, you go along with this without a critique of Fauci, who is a fucking criminal, was a criminal during the AIDS crisis, is a criminal today.
Fauci invented, they fucking paid money.
and invented this goddamn virus in a u.s biolab that's according that's according to the chairman of the lancet study group on covet 19 so you're still not upset at fauci even though it looks like he's the person responsible for it funding the invention of the covet 19 virus what do you call it when someone invents a problem and then sells you the solution at a hundred billion dollars a year what do you call that you
call that a scam?
Bernie Badoff.
That's what I call him.
That's all that is.
And why does Big Pharma get to set their own profit margin?
Why did we allow them to make $100 billion?
Why didn't they just make a billion dollars and then we take that other $99 billion and end homelessness?
How about that?
Good question.
Good question.
And why does Dr. Fauci still get to be allowed around beagles?
Exactly.
Beaglegate.
Okay.
Over to Steph.
Okay.
So I just wanted to read Nina's tweet that was mentioned earlier.
Oh, let's see it.
So Nina said, we are over the pandemic.
The pandemic is not over with us.
Big distinction.
All right.
Now there's three comments right underneath.
So Jessie says, ah, so cute.
She's doing pharmaceutical industry thing now.
Yes.
Working your way up the ladder, girl.
Let's do a war tweet next.
Very nice, Jessie.
Ah, nice.
Thanos said, yeah, maybe you should have supported force the vote instead of fighting against it like every other neo lib and neocon.
Yeah.
And Keith comes back and says, the cringe level of this tweet is too much.
I love that.
But then Nina taps in and goes, who asked you?
That's it.
Ah, that's your Twitter game, Nina?
Who asked you?
Who asked you?
All right.
Back to Jimmy.
I thought you would enjoy that.
I had, see, there are a few people who have a more inflated sense of self, I think, in the world.
If that, you think that's a fucking comeback?
Holy shit.
She tweeted out that stupid video that the Young Turks did about, oh, Nina Turner annihilates Jimmy.
Do you know that fucking video got ratioed by their own fans?
And you can't find a comment underneath that video that supports the Young Turks, Nina Turner, or anybody.
They're all just shitting on you at your own network now.
At your Jeffrey Katzenberg owned bullshit, neolib shit, Democratic Party supporting network called the Young Turks.
She's unbossed, though.
She is unbossed.
She's unbossed.
Okay, but can I, okay.
She is so bossed.
It's hilarious.
Why do you think she said Jimmy Dore says things I can't say?
Because she's got a boss.
She's unbossed.
And she stays amazing.
Okay, so the comeback, one person came back and she said, who asked you?
And Let's Go Brandon said, public forum, darling.

Governor DeSantis is dropping off and sending immigrants.
They're not illegal, who are seeking asylum.
He's sending them to sanctuary cities, cities that said they were sanctuaries and they wouldn't kick out.
They would welcome immigrants.
A lot of people would say that's that sounds logical.
Oh, you guys are sanctuary cities.
You're saying you want immigrants.
We're going to send you some because we have way too many.
That's what the border states have been saying.
Right.
So it's pretty easy to talk tough about being open to immigrants when you know you're never going to have to face that problem.
And then the southern governors are making them face that problem.
And here is the here is the head of the homeless outreach in Martha's Vineyard.
This is what she had to say about they were sent 50 five zero to one of the richest neighborhoods in the world.
There are there are empty rental places littering Martha's Vineyard right now.
And Barack Obama has at least what, 48 acres or something like that is 48 acres.
I think Barack Obama is directly responsible for a lot of these immigrants being here.
Why doesn't he take some?
Well, here's what the homeless director said.
The difficult challenges are we have at some point in time, they have to leave somewhere else.
Right.
At some point in time, they have to leave some.
We have to leave and go somewhere else.
All right.
She sounds like you know what she sounds like she
sounds like a governor of texas she sounds like a governor of florida that they got to leave like we don't got we can't watch we cannot because we don't have the services to take care of the immigrants we don't and where are we gonna get the money where are we gonna find resources us the richest people on the face of the planet where are we gonna get resources to help these people i don't know if the president lives around the corner on a 48 acre estate and he's worth 80 million dollars Why don't you ask him?
You don't think he has some connections in government that could maybe get you guys some resources because you're a sanctuary city to take care of these kids?
Or no?
Here we go.
I'll start from the top.
The difficult challenges are: we have to, at some point in time, they have to move somewhere else.
At some point, we cannot.
And we certainly don't have a housing housing crisis as we are on this island.
They have a housing crisis.
There's a housing crisis.
It's a mansion crisis.
That's called a mansion crisis.
That's not a housing crisis.
Jeez.
Jimmy, winter's about to start.
They're going to have to move their yachts and their sailboats back up on shore.
There's not going to be any room.
Where are they going to put all those 50 people?
Yeah.
50 people.
They had to immediately put on a bus and get them out of town.
They were even there 48 hours.
They had to get those people out of town.
They're a sanctuary city.
We can't house everyone here that lives here.
We can't house everyone that lives here and works here.
What?
Where are they living?
You have a homeless problem in Martha's Vineyard.
Is that what you're telling me?
Really?
You guys have a homeless problem in Martha's Vineyard?
There's not enough homes for the people who live and work there.
They immediately start sounding like right-wingers.
Immediately.
Immediately, they sound like a Republican governor.
Immediately.
All it took was 50.
There are thousands pouring in every day.
50 of them.
That's all it took for her to turn into fucking Ron DeSantis.
that's all it took.
Here's a, I think this, I don't know who this is.
Is this the mayor of Martha's Vineyard?
I don't know who this is, but she seems very official.
Let's watch.
Told there was a surprise present for them and that there would be jobs and housing awaiting for them when they arrived.
You're the ones who said that you welcome them.
You're the one who ran around for years talking about how you welcome them and you put signs on your lawn saying immigrants are welcome.
And you said you're sanctuary cities.
And so now they're angry that they're saying that Ron DeSantis tricked people into sending immigrants to a sanctuary city where they won't ever be deported.
That doesn't make logical sense.
Here we go.
Told there was a surprise present for them and that there would be jobs and housing awaiting for them when they arrived.
This was obviously a sadistic lie.
Not only did those responsible for this stunt know that there was no housing and no employment awaiting the migrants, they also very intentionally chose not to call ahead to any single office authority on Martha's Vineyard so that even the most basic human needs arrangements could be made.
Ensuring that no help awaited the migrants at all was the entire point.
So I think he should have given them a highway.
I'd appreciate a heads up, but AOC says it's appalling that far-right politicians seem to have decided that fall before an election is their regularly scheduled time to commit crimes against humanity on refugees.
Don't normalize this.
Lying to and trafficking people for TV and clicks isn't politics as usual.
It's abuse.
Well, according to Matthew Koken, who's an immigration lawyer, they're all full of shit, those people.
According to him, he says, I've won multiple awards for providing pro bono representation to immigrants, including being recognized by the New York Law Journal as a lawyer who leads by example.
Spare me your righteous indignation about immigrants sent to liberal sanctuaries where they won't be deported.
So that's him saying that.
And now let's bring on Charlemagne from Comedy Central.
Let's see how he feels about this.
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis up the game by sending two plane fulls of immigrants to the East Coast elite's favorite vacation island, Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts.
I personally think it's genius.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Thank you.
He said he thinks it's genius.
What else did he say?
But I wish that governors like Ron DeSantis and Greg Abbott would give Democratic governors and mayors more of a heads up because then that would expose the hypocrisy of the Democrats, which is they don't want immigrants here either.
They don't want immigrants here either.
The Democrats, he's right.
That's why this is all bullshit.
The Democrats are just as big immigrant haters as the Republicans.
Barack Obama deported more Hispanics than Donald Trump.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden built those cages.
And I follow memeology on YouTube.
They've been putting together these things.
Watch this.
So you're struggling to process the 2,500 migrants sent to you from Texas.
So this is the mayor of New York City, Mayor Eric Adams, and he got 2,500 immigrants sent to New York State.
Sanctuary City, New York City.
Meanwhile, the El Paso sector of the border sees an average of 1,700 migrants crossing every single day.
A record 1.9 million migrants have been apprehended on the southwest border this fiscal year alone.
Even if you think what these governors are doing is horrific, it seems like you agree this is a crisis that needs more attention from the Biden administration.
No, I believe it's a crisis that needs more coordination from our country.
Oh, so it's the country's problem.
Oh, my God.
It's the country.
It's not my boss's problem.
Oh, my God.
It's the country.
It's the country's problem.
It's not Joe Biden's problem.
The guy who was vice president for eight years when they caused all this problem, when they did the Honduras coup in 2009, that's on him.
By the way, I'm getting, I guess, Martha's Vineyard isn't officially a sanctuary city.
And Massachusetts, not a sanctuary state, but Boston's a sanctuary city, isn't it?
I'm pretty sure.
Check.
And let's see if New York is also.
So there he is.
So memeology caught that.
He's like, no, no, it's not.
It's the country.
It's this.
It's that.
But when southern governors were screaming about this problem and asking for help and all that stuff, you're just like, oh, you guys are racist.
Now you guys get them sent to your city and, oh, it's everybody's problem.
Here it is in Chicago.
Boston is a sanctuary city.
Cambridge, Chelsea, Concord, New York.
Okay, so that's why I got him.
So that's why I didn't.
So Boston is a sanctuary City and all those cities around Boston are sanctuary cities, but not Martha's Vineyard.
Isn't that interesting?
Barack Obama doesn't live in a sanctuary city.
Chicago, it says Chicago's welcoming city ordinance prohibits cooperation in immigration enforcement.
See, the city successfully sued, so they don't participate in getting rid of immigrants in Chicago.
That's what they're saying.
That's the Department of Law, City of Chicago Department of Law, letting you know that they're not going to participate in deporting immigrants.
Here's the mayor.
The radical politician will proudly make sure that Chicago remains a welcoming sanctuary city for all the hardworking immigrants and refugees who have made our city one of the best.
Turns out, breaking migrants bust in from Texas to Chicago May.
She says this is a national problem and needs a national solution.
Cities and states cannot be left to fend for ourselves.
There's more to this.
Hang on.
This is the mayor of Chicago.
After she said that she's going to, she's a radical politician and she will proudly make sure Chicago remains a welcoming sanctuary city.
Now they sent her some immigrants.
And what is she saying now?
The federal government has to step up.
I was in Washington, D.C. last week talking to members of Costa Conford Patrol, National FEMA, ICE, and DHS.
And we made it very clear.
I made it very clear that our expectation is that they were going to have a plan that features communication and collaboration with interior cities.
And they must do that.
So she's upset.
The federal government's got to do something.
They got to do something.
They got to have a plan.
She doesn't have a plan.
She's a sanctuary city.
She doesn't have a plan.
What's your plan, Sanctuary City?
She doesn't have a plan.
You know what her plan was?
She shipped them out of the city in a bus and didn't tell the dollar.
You think I'm kidding?
Chicago welcomes Texas migrants, then sends them to Burr Ridge.
That's a suburb of Chicago by my old house.
WGN investigation has learned that several dozen of the migrants Texas Governor Greg Abbott sent to Chicago have now been relocated to a hotel in the suburbs without advance warning to the local mayor.
And also the local mayor asks Lightfoot whether or not these, because you know, they haven't been granted political asylum yet.
They have applied for political asylum, but that's like a four-year process because the courts are so backed up.
So the mayor of Burr Ridge asked Lightfoot whether or not these migrants have, you know, had any sort of criminal background checks or any health checks prior.
And of course, the answer was no.
And, you know, at the end of the day, it's like, I get it.
I get what Abbott and DeSantis are doing, they're doing here.
But I think it also kind of shows their virtue signaling on this issue.
If they believe that every migrant is like violent and extremist, rapist, whatever, then why would they be sending them further deeper into the interior in the suburbs?
You know, I think it shows a little bit of their hyperbolic statements on the matter as well.
I don't, this is not how I would have handled the problem if I was DeSantis or Abbott, but it's it, the pro the real problem, we're going to get to this in a second, is that they never talk about the real problem and what's the real problem.
The real problem is I'll tell you in just a second, because first I have one more thing.
Here's the mayor of DC.
She says D.C. values our dreamers and our immigrant communities and will continue to find sanctuary in our city.
So then they sent some immigrants to that city.
And what is she saying?
We're not a border town.
We don't have an infrastructure to handle this type of level of immigration to our city.
But we will create a new normal here in our infrastructure and have a humane welcome for people and an efficient service provision.
But we don't have the ability.
We're not Texas.
We're not a border town.
Fuck out of it.
Fuck out of it.
Fuck out of here.
Hey, hey, you got some way to fuck out.
That was very funny.
So here, and this idea that somehow DeSantis and Abbott are worse than Joe Biden, the U.S. has removed over 6,000 Haitian asylum seekers from their border in Del Rio.
It's planning six deportion flights on Tuesday, denying many of legal right to the legal right to asylum.
They're using the Trump era policy.
They pretended that they were going to get, and then Glenn Greenwald caught it.
Compare all the poetic and melodramatic condemnations which Democrats issued about the treatment of migrants during the Trump years to their conduct now.
How dumb do you have to be to keep falling for their simplistic frauds?
So the Democrats are frauds on immigration.
Yeah.
And you want to know how?
All Americans, not only in the states most heavily affected, but in every place in this country, are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country.
The jobs they home might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants.
The public service they use impose burdens on our taxpayers.
That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards, by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, by cracking down on illegal hiring, by barring welfare benefits to illegal aliens.
In the budget I will present to you, we will try to do more to speed the deportation of illegal aliens who are arrested for crimes to better identify illegal aliens in the workplace as recommended by the commission headed by former Congresswoman Barbara Jordan.
We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also a nation of laws.
It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years, and we must do more to stop it.
So spare me.
There's Bill Clinton getting votes, demonizing the least amongst us, pretending that somehow jobs are being taken away by immigrants instead of what's really happening.
A capitalist is found someone who's actually more desperate than an American, and they're scurving them.
They're exploiting them more.
That's what's happening.
But Bill Clinton wanted you to be angry at the immigrant.
Do you see that?
Remember when Ben Shapiro went to this podcast convention and he took pictures with people.
He was very respectful and they took pictures.
And then the podcast host had to apologize that he went.
We apologize.
Ben Shapiro showed up briefly and he wasn't registered.
We didn't expect him, but we take full responsibility for the harm done by his presence.
By the way, did you know that convention has since apologized to Ben Shapiro?
Did you know that, Jackson?
Yeah, which means whoever was running their Twitter account was going off-road.
They were being rogue.
But that's how a scary basic, that's how scary a basic bitch conservative nerd is now to some people.
And I don't know why they're constantly trying to make Ben Shapiro into some edgy bad boy.
Makes me feel like a real alpha male, tough Guy, UFC Fighter.
It's a slippery slope.
How young, this is a real thing, article, how young men fall into online radicalization.
Read Brown, the subtitle says, read Brown says YouTube started showing him problematic content when he was 13.
Why would YouTube do that?
Why is it?
Why doesn't he just go on pornhub and see dildo's the size of a horse's leg being jammed up teenagers?
Why does it just do that?
It's YouTube that's bad.
So, again, this is establishment corporate news media afraid of news media that's independent on YouTube.
And they try to pretend it's the, they want to get rid of it and they want to censor it because they don't want the competition.
That's all this is.
And then they try to make it look like it's scary out there on YouTube.
People are being radicalized.
That's what this is.
Hey, good news, CBC.
If Ben Shapiro is the gateway to toxic masculinity, all masculinity is officially dead in this world.
Wait, is that what they say in this article?
They argue that he's like a toxic, toxic, masculine male or something.
Yeah, how young men fall into online radicalization.
Hey, by the way, I want to show you.
This is a funny video someone made about Ben Shapiro.
Watch this.
Horrors in this house.
There's some horrors in this house.
There's some horrors in this house.
There's some whores in this house.
I said, certified freaks.
There's some whores.
Seven days a week.
There's some wet ass P-words.
Make that pull-out game weak.
Yeah, his house.
Yeah, whores.
Yeah, you have in with some wet-ass P-words.
Bring a bucket and a mouse for this wet-ass P-word.
Give me everything you've got for this wet-ass P-world.
Beat it up, N-word.
Hatch a charge.
Extra large and extra hard.
Put this P-word right in your face.
Swipe your nose like a credit card.
Hop on top if I want to ride.
Come take a dive.
They continued along these lines.
And it gets significantly more vulgar.
That's the guy they're saying is radicalizing young boys.
That's the guy who's radicalized.
The guy who's offended at rap lyrics is somehow radicalizing young boys on YouTube.
That's kind of ironic, no?
Yes.
Not since Dan Quayle recited the lyrics to Cobkiller.
Have I been so chilled to the bone?
Reed Brown.
This is their big story.
Reed Brown remembers the first time he got sucked in by the algorithm.
He was just 13.
Watching videos after school when YouTube started pushing him to controversial content.
YouTube took him by the hand.
As time went on, the videos became increasingly extreme, says Brown.
He's now 21.
Jesus Christ.
What did he see that was so that was so controversial in content?
What did he see?
I'm almost afraid to keep reading because I don't want to be radicalized myself.
It started out pretty benign, he recalls.
You're watching something about teen fashion, and then the next thing you know, the algorithm would push you to a Ben Shapiro video.
No!
How can he fall so far so fast?
A Ben Shapiro video.
Though Shapiro describes himself as a conservative political commentator, his views are controversial and some are outright discriminatory.
He suggested, for example, that transgender people suffer from a mental disorder.
Well, doesn't that sound like a basic conservative thing to say?
So is all conservatism now extremism?
Because that's what they're saying.
That's a fastball down the middle conservative idea.
That's transgender people suffer from a mental.
Am I wrong about that, Jackson?
You're not wrong about that.
So they're just saying half the country is a controversial extreme.
Right?
Also, I was not aware that gender dysphoria is not considered a mental disorder.
It's called dysphoria, right?
Does that not mean that?
If it's not a disorder, wouldn't it be called gender euphoria?
They call it gender dysphoria.
I don't know.
I don't know about these definitions, but all I can say is that teacher in Canada with the massive tits was very mentally stable.
I would never say that she was not mentally stable.
Regardless of what people think about Ben Shapiro and his views of trans people, less than 10 years ago, the psychiatric, the entire psychiatric community was labeling transgenderism a disorder.
There it is.
Gender dysphoria, the distress a person experiences due to the mismatch between their gender identity, their personal sense of their own gender, and their sex assigned at birth.
This diagnostic labeled gender identity disorder was used until 2013.
This condition was renamed to remove the stigma associated with the term disorder.
So they no longer call it that, I guess.
Because of a stigma.
Because of the stigma.
I thought mental disorders shouldn't be stigmatized, right?
If it's a stigma to refer to something as a disorder, doesn't that reinforce the negative stigmas around mental disorders?
Also, this just sounds like semantics and not this is semantics.
This is not extremism.
This is all they got for Ben Shapiro.
But he has a combined 9.4 million subscribers.
Oh, so that's what it is.
You become an extremist when you have a following that's really big.
Many of his followers are young people.
Why don't they just watch cartoons and be told that nuclear war is a good thing for democracy and eat more sugar cereal?
A lot of his followers are young, just like Brown was when he got pushed in Shapiro's direction.
Oh, they keep pushing.
While Shapiro is not affiliated with any hate group, he's not.
Experts in the media, experts.
Do you know who experts in the media are?
Guys like Brian Stelter.
That's who they consider an expert in the media.
Nina Jankowitz, Taylor Lorentz.
Those are the people they consider experts in the media.
So those fucking freak heads in the media.
While Shapiro is not affiliated with any hate group, experts in media, gender studies, and the radicalization of young men.
God damn.
Jesus Christ.
That the comment, they say his content is prevalent in online extremist communities.
So experts in the media and gender studies people who are experts in radicalization of young men, they say his comments are everywhere.
What?
What?
So?
By the way, which again, which experts?
They don't tell you which experts.
Which gender studies people?
Jesus.
And the exposure to controversial and increasing harmful views about masculinity.
Yeah.
The objectification of women.
And the LGBT community has these same experts raising concern about how extremist far-right groups are using TikTok, YouTube, and other social media apps in a drip campaign to slowly radicalize vulnerable teens and young men.
My God, Andrew Tate was objectifying women on TikTok of all places.
I hope no perverts were radicalized by his extremism while scrolling through the rampant underage sexual content.
Hey, are these experts at all familiar with what's on TikTok?
Because if you're actually concerned with vulnerable teens, you should probably outright ban TikTok.
Though TikTok's decision to remove influencer Andrew Tate's account for misogynistic content, the company said violated its policies, put the discussion in the spotlight.
The personal stories of people like Brown offer unique insight into the effect the content can have on teen boys.
And again, Tate wasn't censored off the internet until his name was more Google searched than Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
Yep.
The videos Brown watched as an early teen were often misogynistic, he said.
He said.
And it started to affect the way he thought and how he interacted with people at school.
Oh, good.
Finally, we're going to hear some specifics.
Okay, let's see what extremist malarkey this young man is up to.
I remember repeating some sexist attitudes.
Jesus fucking Christ.
Jesus fucking Christ.
This is real.
This is real.
I remember repeating some sexist attitudes, things about the wage gap.
We can't let kids get the wrong idea about the wage gap.
We've lost them if they have the wrong idea about the wage gap.
Jesus Christ.
Especially when I was hanging out with my guy friends.
We were repeating all these things we were seeing on the internet.
A lot of sexism and misogyny.
Jesus Christ.
Him and his hoodlin friends get together and start repeating sexist attitudes.
And then they said something about the wage gap.
A lot of bad dudes.
Him and corn pop.
A documentary and podcast producer who researches online radicalization among young men and incel subculture.
This guy, this person, Ellen Bateman, she describes radicalization as a slippery slope that began as algorithms pushing boys to videos that's increasingly harmful.
Holy shit.
You know, I think we all owe the makers of Reefer Madness an apology.
And I commend them for the restraint and lack of sensationalism when put up against this shit.
By the way, this is from the Washington Post.
You know the wage gap?
They call it misleading.
Here's the facts behind the 79 cent pay wage gap factoid.
And every year since 2012, the Washington Post, their fact checker, has offered an explanation of this figure and why it's misleading.
They give it two Pinocchios, the wage gap.
They give it two Pinocchios.
But according to this article, that's radical.
You're radicalizing young boys.
That was the first example that guy gave was the wage gap.
And here it is, bullshit from the why.
I don't, I'm not saying it is real.
I'm not saying it's not.
I'm saying the Washington fucking Post fact checker, the Jeff Bezos shitlib rag, the Washington Post goes against the wage gap.
Are you going to tell people not to read the Washington Post?
Because it's going to radicalize young boys.
No, a young boy's going to read the Washington Post and he's going to go out and start saying stuff about the wage gap that's misogynistic.
Because he read the Washington Post.
Then someone might engage you in a comment thread and tell you to join their Discord group where the content gets darker and darker and it's edgy, she said.
It's entertaining for some young guys.
And before you know it, you've stumbled into an extremist subculture.
They got a target to blame all their problems on.
The allure of these hate groups is that they provide isolated young men with a sense of community and power, often for the first time in their lives, and give them a target, someone to blame for their challenges they perceive in their lives.
You mean like what you guys are doing?
How you guys are blaming YouTube for all your problems?
Jesus Christ.
A target to blame their problems on.
A target to blame their problems on.
You mean like, I don't know, like the patriarchy for incels?
Gasp!
Gasp!
you Thank you.
Some young men may also see messages of empowerment for women and girls as an attack on masculinity, says Joanne Schrader, a writer whose work focuses on gender and media representation.
I bet that she's a great writer.
I bet she writes fantastically.
Oh my God.
Maybe they see.
So what you're saying, so she goes on.
Maybe they see Me Too stuff.
Maybe they see a t-shirt or a bumper sticker that says the future is female.
There are a lot of encouraging content Out there for girls.
And if young men aren't given an opportunity to talk through their feelings on this, they may see that as men are irrelevant.
That doesn't necessarily mean that's what's happening, but they may feel that way.
So you're saying that young men see these goofy, outright hostile messages directed at them, and then they find a sense of community and not liking that together?
Wow, you are an expert.
Bateman and Schrader both agree that role models are critical to the healthy development of young men.
They say it's important that parents are talking with their kids about the kind of content they consume online.
While parents can't get ahead of all the technology their teens might use, Schrader said they can offer help by teaching them media literacy and do it early on.
Let me tell you, babies are more literate than their media literate than their parents.
You ever see a baby with a fucking iPhone?
You want to have an adult teach a kid about media literacy?
Jesus Christ.
We start doing media critique with them when they're quite young.
Holy shit.
So they have the skill to analyze something when it's put in front of them.
As for Brown, he's now a fourth-year mechanical engineering student at Dahlhouse University.
He said he was able to avoid being pulled into more extreme content by using social media less often and instead reading literature.
You mean he was able to handle that?
You mean he was able to make up his own goddamn mind?
That's not go ahead.
I think he's probably a nerd with no friends.
And I mean, he's a weirdo.
Listen to the way he talks.
He's like, he thinks that talking about the pay gap is misogynistic.
He doesn't know what misogynistic is if he thinks that's misogynistic.
You know, they talk about this being like a radical content pipeline.
The radical content pipeline we have is what is leading kids and parents down to the mental state of thinking that it's normal to have hyper-sexualized teenagers on TikTok shaking their ass in front of the camera or going to your, you know, your middle school class and having a woman with like 50-pound tits walk out, fake tits walk out, and think everything's normal.
Like that's that's the radical pipeline we're on.
The extremist ideas is the woke ideology.
That's what's extreme right now.
It is pro-censorship.
The extremists are really the pro-censorship people to me.
It always censors in that direction, though.
And that's right.
And so these are the radicals, people who are pro-censorship, trying to convince you the people they want to censor are the radicals.
That's what's happening here.
And Ben Shapiro, he's like the most establishment hack on the planet.
He works with Dennis Prager.
I heard him last week.
He said, if you don't actively support Israel as a Zionist, then you're unpatriotic as an American.
It's not more mainstream U.S. politics than that.
Ben Shapiro is going to tell you to don't have sex before you get married and go to church.
That's who Ben Shapiro is.
Literally.
Jesus.
I mean, plus, he's got a bunch of right-wing ideology.
He's against, you know, government, Medicare for all, stuff like all the stuff I'm for.
He's against.
He's probably for the Ukraine war.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I shouldn't say anything, but he's like an establishment Republican.
Yeah, he's just an establishment Republican who I disagree with on most things.
Hey, this is Jimmy.
Who's this?
Jimmy, this is American U.S. President Joseph Robinette Biden.
Oh, wow.
Don't hear your full name very often.
Well, yeah, man.
Robinette isn't a name you want to whip out a lot.
Yeah, I suppose not.
What's on your mind, Mr. President?
What's on my mind is serious and somber.
Jimmy, I just gave a very important speech to the United Nations in New York City.
I heard.
I confronted the threat of Putin's imperialism head on.
Did you know?
Yes.
His threats of rising military mobilization, annexation of neighboring territories, and the use of nuclear weapons violate everything the United Nations stands for.
Not to mention American values.
Really?
Those things violate American values?
Of course they do.
We're better than that over here.
In the U.S. of A. You know, there wouldn't be a U.S. of A if it weren't for those things.
Military mobilization?
We have more military bases around the world than anybody else.
Annexing neighboring territories?
That's how this country came to be.
And we're the only country that has ever actually used a nuclear weapon on an enemy.
I don't understand anything you just said.
Don't you think you're being hypocritical accusing Putin of being an imperialist when the U.S. has the much greater history of that?
But we're good.
Putin is bad.
He uses military force to kill and subdue.
We're using our military to bring aid to the suffering peoples of Puerto Rico.
Now, how about that for a juxtaposition, wise guy?
And what is Puerto Rico?
San Juan.
What?
I'm sorry, Dude, I thought this was Jeopardy for a second.
What is Puerto Rico?
Puerto Rico is whoever she wants to be.
No, Puerto Rico is a United States territory, Jack.
Okay, thanks for that.
Good fun fact.
Good to know.
It's not a state.
It's a territory that was annexed, annexed by U.S. military action through a war with Spain that the United States instigated for territorial gain.
It is merely one of the many territories around the world that is like that.
And these territories are our little friends.
We love them and take care of them, and they're very happy.
Okay.
When I was in London attending the funeral for Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, I was speaking to other members of the royal family of England about how awful Putin's imperialist aims are.
U.S. president, a U.S. president, and the British royal family deriding imperialism?
Now, that's rich.
Well, they are.
Just between you and me, these Windsor cats are loaded.
Yeah, the money that came as a result of colonialism and imperialism.
No, no, I think they made their fortune in feudalism, actually.
Okay, much better then.
Look, Jack.
The point is, our friends in the UK are locked step with us in imposing imperialism.
Mr. President, aren't your policies and NATO's anti-Russian stance leading us down a dangerous path to war?
Not if we can make it look like it's all Putin's fault.
This is about global security, future global security.
Yeah, I think I've heard that one before.
How are we going to win a war against China if we don't practice with a war with Russia first?
That's just the same old.
Wait, what?
You think we're going to go in blind against China?
You crazy?
A land war?
You're out of your mind.
Wow.
The generals in the Chinese war of 2038 will have been the colonels in the Russian war.
And they will need to practice.
And we have to try out all this new shit, this tech shit, and make sure it works well.
Is that what this is about?
Of course it is, dumb-dumb.
Did you think this was all fun and games?
And don't worry, it won't be just us.
It'll be all of NATO.
A real group effort.
I love the idea of Germany rolling tanks into Russia again, but this time they're the good guys.
Ah, the ironies of history.
This is maniacal, Mr. President.
This is reality, Holmes Skillet.
And yes, this is going to be because of quote-unquote Russian imperialism.
You don't get to just change the map of Europe, Mr. Putin.
That map hasn't changed in 1,000 years.
And it's not good on my watch.
Hold on, wait a minute.
I'm smelling something.
Burned toast, I hope.
No.
Regime change.
Oh, buddy.
My new pal, King Chuck, is going to love this one.
To the red phone!
