Among all the crazed crackdowns on speech in Europe, the Germans may be taking matters to the most insane levels. German authorities today brag about breaking into people’s homes and laugh about seizing their personal devices like laptops and phones — all for the “offense” of insulting someone, sometimes a politician. Imagine not being allowed to insult a politician? Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the transformation in Germany from liberal democracy to authoritarianism over just these issues. Plus segments on CBS reporter Margaret Brennan losing her mind by blaming the Holocaust on an excess of free speech and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth dropping truth bombs about Ukraine on European diplomats. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. Plus a phone call from Jeff Bridges!

Hey, this is Jimmy.
Who's this?
Hey, man, it's Jeff Bridges.
Oh, friend of the show, Jeff Bridges.
How are you?
I'm doing pretty great, all things considered.
How are you, man?
I'm fine.
Thanks for asking.
What did you want to talk about?
Well, hey, man, you know, I just wanted to tell you that ever since the campaign thing, I've really been bitten by the politics bug.
You know, I've always been contentious to hang back with all that, but lately I've been like, you know, hey, fuck it.
Get more involved.
That's great, Jeff.
Yeah, you know, I had a lot of fun with the whole white dudes for Kamala thing.
That had a real fun vibe.
And just because all that went down like a lead balloon doesn't mean that that vibe has to end, you know?
Right.
But I've got to find somewhere else to put that energy, man.
The whole Kamala thing is dead.
As far as my research shows, you know, right now it's more like white dudes for where the fuck is Kamala, you know?
I don't even think she's vice president anymore.
Yes, she's not, Jeff.
J.D. Vance is.
Who?
But, oh, yeah, okay.
Well, right there, you know, it's hard to keep up, man.
I guess Trump just fired her along with those other poor saps.
Sure, okay.
But there's still hope, man.
I'm proud to say I recently signed a petition, which is a constitutional right.
So I'm doing my fucking part, man.
Oh, that's great.
And what petition was this?
Well, you know how Trump wants to take over Greenland?
You know, that island that's either normal big or crazy big, depending on what map you look at.
Sure.
Well, it turns out Greenland belongs to Denmark.
Yep.
Little old Denmark.
Turns out it's a real place, not just from Hamlet.
Well, anyway, Denmark put up an online petition to get people to sign saying that Denmark should take over California in retaliation.
And I said, fuck yeah, and I signed it, man.
But, you know, digitally on the computer.
I see.
Do you really think Denmark should annex California or was this a pointless empty gesture?
Well, I don't know.
Maybe both.
I mean, it can't get worse, right?
Denmark is the oldest monarchy in Europe.
It contains 406 islands.
They probably know how to manage fucking water, man.
And just look around at the homeless and the open drug use in the street and not the cool drugs.
It's a fucking disaster here, man.
You realize you're describing the failure of the state government in California, right?
Trump did not create this.
He didn't create those problems.
Well, yeah.
He's not helping either.
So you think it's best to replace Trump and Gavin Newsom with the king of Denmark or whatever they have over there?
Well, you know, it's interesting, man.
They have a king and a prime minister who's a lady, a nice Danish lady.
They've got two people in charge, which is probably better than one.
It's probably a better system.
Their legislature only has one house, and they've got a shit ton of political parties to choose from.
The whole thing's just more groovy.
Well, you could live in Denmark itself if you want.
I mean, why do they need to take over California?
Because I hate fucking moving, man.
The tiny country of Denmark has never managed an economy of California's size.
They'd have no idea what they're even doing.
Well, not at first, maybe, but they'd figure it out.
They're quick learners, man.
Yeah, all right.
Do you realize this was a stunt on the part of the Danes?
It wasn't really meant to be taken seriously.
No one thinks that Denmark is going to take over California.
Oh, I don't think that's true, man.
Denmark wouldn't do that.
You can trust them.
They're not like the dirty fucking lying Swede.
I'm sorry, Jeff.
It's not a serious thing.
It's a joke.
Well, okay.
I did something, though.
I signed a fucking thing.
I wasn't going to sit here and let all this just happen.
This dismantling of democracy and shit and taking over Greenland, which is the colony of another country.
That shit won't stand, man.
Well, you did your part.
Were there any other aspects of being a Danish subject that you were looking forward to?
Well, I thought maybe we'd get a discount on Legos.
Are you one of those Lego adults?
Oh, fuck yeah, man.
Getting absolutely blazed and putting together a Star Wars spaceship.
Nothing fucking beats it, man.
You can still do that in America.
Well, not if Donald Trump had his way.
Worst thing is I learned that goofy ass national anthem for no reason.
It is a stirring memorial to the bravery of Danish sailors during the Torstenson War, but the melody fucking sucks, man.
Hey, you want to come over and do some Legos with me?
No, thanks, Jeff.
I have to move on with the show.
Thanks for calling in, though.
My pleasure, man.
Good fucking deal.
Keep on doing what you do, man.
Whatever the fuck that is.
Sayonara, amigo.
Establishment media sucks All gaslighting so good luck Bullshit we can't afford Fomenting this Watch and see as it's jacked off The median speeds and jumps the medium And hits them head on It's the Chimitor Show Chimitor Show 60 Minutes did a segment called Policing the Internet.
And the whole, I want to show you the whole segment, but obviously I can't.
It's like a 25-minute segment.
So I'm going to show you a clip of it.
And they're all this will be mind-blowing to you.
It should be.
It should be.
These are supposed to be liberal democracies.
And watch what they're doing.
Here we go.
It's 6:01 on a Tuesday morning.
And we were with state police as they raided this apartment in northwest Germany.
Inside, six armed officers searched a suspect's home, then seized his laptop and cell phone.
Prosecutors say those electronics may have been used to commit a crime.
Oh, was he drug running?
Was it the head of a drug cartel?
Were they robbing banks across Germany?
What were they doing?
Was he doing human trafficking and he was using his computer to organize it all?
What was it?
Was he doing worldwide terrorism?
Were they trying to do another 9-11 somewhere?
What was the crime?
The crime?
Posting a racist cartoon online at the exact same time across Germany posting a racist cartoon.
Now, keep this in mind.
It's what they consider to be a racist cartoon.
Yeah, so I was going to ask, can I see it?
Can I see the cartoon?
No, you can't see the cartoon.
It's too racist.
You don't want to know.
Jimmy, don't look.
It's too racist.
What did they do?
Put up a Don Rickles bit?
They put up a Don Rickles.
I'd like to make a bet.
I'll bet you the cartoon is going to turn out is not that racist and it's going to be bewildering as to why they said that they could be out fighting crime.
This is what they're spending their money and time on.
Yeah.
This is what a full-time job for someone.
They're up at six in the morning breaking into people's houses, stealing their computers and phones because they don't like what they said.
Machete crime is way up, by the way.
Yeah.
More than 50 similar raids played out.
Part of what prosecutors say is a coordinated effort to curb online hate speech in Germany.
What's the typical reaction when the police show up at somebody's door and they say, hey.
By the way, these are three prosecutors who hold what they spend, do all day is prosecute people for free speech.
Yeah.
If they don't like what they're saying, they will prosecute them and put them in jail.
Yeah, well, it's good the citizens aren't armed, isn't it?
Yes, and that's what happens when citizens aren't armed.
Here we go.
So what she wants to know, what are people's reactions when you show up and you take their phones and computers?
We believe you wrote this on the internet.
They say in Germany we say das witmei mundof ma zagen dufen.
So we are here with crimes of talking, posting an internet, and the people are surprised that this is really illegal to post these kind of words.
They don't think it was illegal.
No, they don't think it was illegal.
And they say, no, that's my free speech.
And we say, no, you have free speech as well, but it also has this.
You have free speech up until you say something I don't like.
Like what?
Anything.
Anything that hurts anyone's feelings.
You think I'm kidding?
Let's watch.
Limits.
Interpreting those limits is part of the job for Dr. Matthias Fink, Svenya Mining House, and Frank Mihai L. Lau, a few of the state prosecutors tasked with policing Germany's robust hate speech laws online.
After its darkest chapter, Germany strengthened its speech laws.
As prosecutors explain it, the German Constitution protects free speech, but not hate speech.
And here's where it gets tricky: German law prohibits any speech that could incite hatred or is deemed insulting.
Insult?
You can't insult someone.
And this speech, although it might not be hateful, it could incite someone to be hateful.
So they're acting like this crackdown.
So the crackdown on free speech was in response to Nazism.
No, Nazism didn't have any free speech.
Jimmy, the things these three fat idiots are saying is making me hateful.
So does that mean that they are guilty of inciting hate?
Yeah.
I mean, I am filled with hate watching these three absolute absolute fascists.
Yeah, it really is like hateful, a hateful feeling.
It's illegal to display Nazi symbolism.
A swastika deny the Holocaust.
That's clear.
Is it a crime to insult somebody in public?
Yes.
And it's a crime to insult them online as well.
Yes.
The fine could be even higher if you insult someone in the internet.
Because in the internet, it stays there.
If we are talking here face to face, you insult me, I insult you.
Okay, finish.
But if you're in the internet, if I insult you or a politician.
That sticks around forever.
Yeah.
And do you see how the CBS news person from 16 Minutes doesn't go, that's insane.
That's, she has a good, she goes, yeah, I get it.
Sticks around forever.
Yeah.
For a politician.
I got a politician.
Once he said a politician, oh no, they're going to have a tag on them for the future.
You can't insult a politician in Germany.
It's a crime.
Well, that sounds like we're going back to where we started a little bit.
That it is.
Sounds a little bit like, I don't know, Nazi Germany.
Was it more diverse?
Is that the difference?
And this is all under the idea of we have to protect people's feelings.
What a convenient way to control people.
What a convenient way.
I'm doing, they always, they always say every dictator, every authoritarian, every murderous dictator always says, I'm doing this for your own good.
Hey, China doesn't do this.
China, you know, when I was there doing comedy, you could say anything you wanted, but they didn't want you talking about the Chinese government.
But insult whoever you want.
In fact, you'd be really insulting.
The only thing that you can't do is talk about they have more rules than China.
They have more authoritarianism than the CCP has.
Isn't it funny how liberalism and communism come and they meet in the same place?
It's incredible.
The prosecutors explain German law also prohibits the spread of malicious gossip, violent threats, and fake quotes.
If somebody posts something that's not true and then somebody else reposts it or likes it, are they committing a crime?
In the case of reposting, it is a crime as well, because the reader can't distinguish whether you just invented this or just reposted it.
That's the same for us.
The punishment for breaking hate speech laws can include jail time for repeat offenders.
But in most cases, a judge levies a stiff fine and sometimes keeps their devices.
How do people react when you take their phones from them?
They are shocked.
That is, this is called the banality of evil.
They're shocked.
Yeah, how shocked would you be if they were all armed?
Because I know in America, I don't even think a cop would attempt some shit like that here, really.
Like, you see it here and there, but people got guns.
Yeah, I don't even want to go into really bad neighborhoods for important things, not tweets.
They're doing this.
If you lose your smartphone, it's even worse than the fine you have to pay.
Because your whole life is typically on your phone now.
And then your whole life.
And the journalist, ha ha ha.
She's not like, you guys are off-the-chart authoritarian mental cases.
She's like, yeah, yeah, it's bad.
Haha.
That's good.
Boy, I remember, I think I owe the Taliban an apology.
No kidding for making fun of them.
Remind me to apologize to the Taliban.
My God, did they have any Germany comedy clubs?
Can't you imagine?
Could you imagine?
Yes, they have.
It's like nothing you can imagine.
Application of Germany's decades-old speech laws to the online world was accelerated after an assassination fueled by the internet sent shockwaves through the country.
An assassination.
Oh, so they're kids.
So that's why we have to, you don't get to have free speech.
You go to jail.
We take away your phone.
When you say the internet, because there was a some guy got killed because there was a political assassination.
What?
Wow.
I don't think that's that narrative they gave is probably accurate of what happened.
I know, I agree.
Well, here it is.
In 2015, a video of a local politician named Walter Lubka went viral after he defended then-Chancellor Angela Merkel's progressive immigration policy.
People with a very right political worldview started hating him on the internet.
They started insulting him.
They started to incite people to kill him.
And that went on for about four years.
Online.
Yes, until in 2019, so four years after he gave that speech, he was shot in his head and instantly dead.
So that was one of the cases where we see that online hate can sometimes find a way into real life.
And then that's the whole story you're going to tell.
That's it.
So I guess we're all guilty of him being killed.
Yes.
I mean, okay, I guess that's bad, this cyberbullying of the elected official that doesn't do their job right.
But I mean, at least the story had a happy ending.
I'm kidding.
Don't arrest me.
Oh, Germany.
Recently, the United States played Canada in a hockey game just like two days ago.
And within the first nine seconds, they had three fistfights.
They had to stop the game three times in nine seconds for fist fights.
And you know what happened?
They had to go in the penalty box for five minutes, then they let them back out for a fist for beating the shit out of someone's face on camera.
But these people are going to jail for words.
Well, what if we lose another great politician?
Like, what was his name?
I don't want to risk another precious life like that fat fuck from Germany.
Here we go.
Hurt people.
After a man with links to neo-Nazis was arrested, Germany ramped up the creation of its online hate task forces.
There are 16 units across the country, each with a team of investigators.
Frank Mihai L. Lau, a career criminal prosecutor, leads the Lower Saxon unit.
How many cases are you working on at any time?
In our unit, we have about 3,500 cases per year.
Nine?
Just in his unit, they're prosecuting 3,900 cases in what?
Every year of people talking just in his district.
Most of them are calling me fats.
Most of them say I am a virtue.
Investigators work out of this office in a converted courthouse.
Lau says they get hundreds of tips a month from police, watchdog groups, and victims.
You must see a lot of crazy stuff.
Yes.
The worst of the internet is wrapped in red case folders, stuffed with printouts of online slurs, threats, and hate.
This is a criminal offense.
What does that say?
So they're suggesting that the refugee children play in the electrical wires.
Oh, Flitterpark for Flütchlinger.
That is illegal.
So people with anti-immigrant sentiment put up a power lines, a picture of power lines, and the headline said that this is where refugees' kids should play.
Illegal.
Going to jail.
Oh my God.
Wow.
They should keep jamming as many refugees as they can into the area and building up the resentment and see what pops off.
Okay.
This case, accused had to pay 3,750 euros.
Wow.
It's not the parking ticket.
Not a parking ticket.
To build their cases, investigators scour social media and use public and government data.
Lau says sometimes social media companies will provide information.
So that's it.
I have to stop it somewhere.
It goes on and on.
You see how long it is.
I could never live there.
I would be a maniac if I live there.
I would be like some kind of like within the week, I would be a fugitive in Germany.
There's not a chance in hell I would even tolerate the guy giggling.
I can't believe that.
I can't believe I was able to do stand-up comedy there.
Maybe it's because I didn't post about it.
But as online is worse, they said.
As Nick Cruz, my friend Nick Cruz says, Germany is cooked.
Germany is cooked.
That's your state of liberal democracy.
Yeah.
And they cry when you bring it up.
And they're all laughing.
They laugh about it.
We all live in a police state.
Wow.
We all live in a surveillance state, a police state, a censorious state that criminalizes thoughts.
Right.
Wow.
But if JD Vance says it to them, they'll start crying.
How about Shaiza videos?
Are they good?
Oh, that's for you teach that in schools, I imagine.
I imagine that's part of the curriculum.
Germany is cooked.
That is real.
But that's not only just happening in Germany, that's happening in the UK.
That's happening.
Oh, yes.
China is freer, by the way.
China is freer.
Whatever you want to say to our adversary, why are these Chinese getting more rights than you have, you morons, than the West?
It's unbelievable.
I thought you don't like China because the crackdown on the rights.
I think that's why they're bad.
I get an email.
I used to get them a lot more than I've been getting them lately, but I used to get these emails all the time saying that my tweet got taken down in Germany for hate speech.
And I was like, what did you say?
At first, when it would come in my inbox, it was like, Twitter flagged your, you've been sent or taken down.
And I'm like, what?
And I'm like, oh, just in Germany?
And I'm like, oh, they're really, I didn't know it was this bad.
Oh, yes.
Somebody, they would say somebody reported your tweet for hate in Germany.
Lock Schnell?
Waiting in your run.
People who claim to be against hate speech are people who just hate speech.
Yeah, no, yeah.
I mean, it's the cheapest, like, obvious little way to control you.
But you have to have an infrastructure of like, just like Hitler had the SA that he later cleaned out in the night of the long knives.
He had that fat idiot guy who just liked to start fights and was like, just an want to go after people.
And then when that guy served up his usefulness, they got rid of him.
That's just how this is going to be.
This is what Hitler did.
Yeah.
This isn't fighting Hitler.
This is being Hitler.
It's improving on Hitler, let's say.
Let's say it's Hitler 2.0.
Now we accept Jews.
It's a more diverse Nazi party.
All the control you love.
but without.
This is really amazing.
I don't know how people's mind that, Yeah.
Yep.
Well, we got, you know, we got to start doing that here pretty soon.
MAGA.
Yeah, boy, they're way ahead out there.
Like, oh, we have to, like, we're fighting.
Oh, we're fighting Nazis, so we have to censor.
No, do you realize that Nazis are the ones who censor?
Do you realize that, right?
No, this is called mind control that the whole country's under.
Oh, no, but we have to do that to fight them.
Wow.
Every stupid thing is a hypnotic.
You watch them repeat the same phrases over and over, and then stupid people babble them at you.
Some of them don't even keep up with the program.
I had a guy I was talking to last night.
He's a friend of mine who's like, Trump, yeah, well, he's a rapist.
25 women came out.
I'm like, are you not even keeping up with the made-up shit?
No.
He just remembers one inaccurate thing.
If this were Germany, he'd be in prison for saying that to me.
The inaccuracies that stay around.

So here from Matt Taibbi wrote this article, CBS Loses Its Mind two days after JD Vance's historic address to Europe on speech.
CBS and 60 Minutes offer a counterattack.
You want to see this?
This is really amazing.
Watch this.
If you'd ever, I never thought I'd be sitting here cheering on Marco Rubio, but liberals are so bad that they make Marco Rubio look like a sage defending democracy.
Here we go.
Well, he was standing in a country where free speech was weaponized to conduct a genocide.
She literally just said that JD Vance was standing in a country, meaning Germany, where free speech was weaponized to conduct a genocide.
She's talking, so free speech to CBS news equals Hitler.
I'm not kidding.
That's what she's pretending.
Now, it's the exact opposite.
That's how the Nazis got away with it.
Yeah, too much free speech.
Free speech?
Yeah, you know how the Nazis, you know, how they supported dissent and free speech and criticism of the Führer.
So, this is what liberalism has come to, Kurt.
This is it.
They're literally now saying free speech.
They're so anti, they're so illiberal that liberals are now equating free speech with Hitler, Nazism, and genocide.
That's why they called the Truckers Nazis.
That's why they say anybody who's for free speech is a Nazi.
It's a dog whistle.
It's a dog whistle that means racism.
Yes, you're a free speech absolutist means you're a Nazi.
This is my phone, by the way, but that's nonsense talk.
Just free speech.
Free speech.
Yeah.
Well, he was standing in a country where free speech was weaponized to conduct a genocide.
And he met with the head of a political party that has far-right views and some historic ties to extreme groups.
The context of that was changing the tone of it.
And you know that, that the censorship specifically about the right.
I have to disagree with you.
Free speech was not used to conduct a genocide.
The genocide was conducted by an authoritarian Nazi regime that happened to also be genocidal because they hated Jews and they hated minorities and they hated those that they had a list of people they hated, but primarily the Jews.
There was no free speech in Nazi Germany.
There was none.
There was also no opposition in Nazi Germany.
They were a sole and only party that governed that country.
So that's not an accurate reflection of history.
I also think it's wrong.
Again, I go back to the point of his speech.
The point of his speech was basically that there is an erosion in free speech and intolerance for opposing points of view within Europe.
And that's of concern because that is eroding.
That's not an erosion of your military capabilities.
That's not an erosion of your economic standing.
That's an erosion of the actual values that bind us together in this transatlantic union that everybody talks about.
And I think allies and friends and partners that have worked together now for 80 years should be able to speak frankly to one another in open forums without being offended, insulted, or upset.
And I spoke to foreign ministers from multiple countries throughout Europe.
Many of them probably didn't like the speech or didn't agree with it, but they were continuing to engage with us on all sorts of issues that unite us.
So again, at the end of the day, I think that, you know, people give all kinds of that is a form in which you're supposed to be inviting people to give speeches, not basically a chorus where everyone is saying the exact same thing.
That's not always going to be the case when it's a collection of democracies where leaders have the right and the privilege to speak their minds in forums such as these.
Mr. Secretary, I'm told that we are out of time.
Oh, well, he was standing in a couple.
Out of time.
So that is just remarkable.
So that's how bad liberalism has gotten.
They can make Marco Rubio look like a sage because to say that Hitler happened and Nazism happened because of too much free speech was the exact opposite.
After the Reistag fire, they completely banned free speech.
There was no free speech.
There was no opposition.
They're doing the thing that leads to genocide currently.
That's right.
That's why J.D. Vance said something.
Yes.
You dingbat.
Well, look, that's a beauty pageant contestant.
I'm sure.
Most of these chicks on these shows came out of the beauty pageant world, and they say things that are dumber than beauty pageant contestants answering the smarty pants question during the contest.
She didn't write any of that herself.
She was reading it off of her notes, or she has an earpiece.
You can see when she leaned in.
Somebody is making her say that.
Do you know what I mean?
Like, just like they all have their little piece.
None of them are smart and they write their own material.
They're all brick.
You remember Ron Burgundy?
Every one of them is brick.
She loves Lamp.
That's what she is.
So the narrative is now from the anti-Trump establishment narrative is that keep pushing that they're right-wing extremists, Nazis, and that's what their free speech is going to lead to, Nazism, and they're for Nazis.
That's what that is.
They're still doing that.
Well, it works on somebody, I guess.
I've heard it for 12 years from idiot whose millennials came out, you know, the screw generation.
They gave him all that nonsense to spout.
So I've heard they all kind of have thought this the whole time, like, oh, it's because free speech, oh, until there's a genocide.
There's a pyramid they made of how comedy leads to genocide.
So I'm going to give a TED talk, TEDx, excuse me.
A TEDx talk about the genocide pyramid.
It starts with jokes and ends with genocide.
So no, they've been pushing his crap for a while.
Like she went to, you know, dum-dum school or wherever you pick that up.
But they're all like everything I've ever been on.
There's been like some beauty pageant chick involved.
And I'll bet most of these anchors were that.
They're not journalists.
Wolf Blitzer is my favorite beauty pageant contested.
He won a dog show or something because of his luxurious mean.
Here she is again.
Watch this.
Well, it sounded to a lot of these allies of the United States like they were being described as adversaries or autocrats.
It was really the focus here, two things.
One of them was migration.
And the second was what Vice President Vance calls censorship.
He was trying to— It's what Jay, what Vice President Vance calls censorship.
Have you ever heard that word?
No, probably because it was suppressed.
Literally, you're arresting people for saying it's even like worse than that.
It's way worse than that.
It's way worse than you can imagine.
I'm going to show you another video in a second that 60 Minutes showed this is a big deal in Europe.
They're just cracking down on speech and putting people in jail for it.
Thought crimes.
You're not allowed to insult a politician in Germany.
Did you know that?
What?
Yes.
Where do you see it?
Bring that MAGA message of censorship.
Hang on, here we go.
Well, it sounded to a lot of these allies of the United States like They were being described as adversaries or autocrats.
It was really the focus here: two things.
One of them was migration, and the second was what Vice President Vance calls censorship.
He was trying to bring that MAGA message of the enemy within to the global stage.
And specifically, he says that European leaders aren't showing that they have strong democracies when they sideline controversial groups.
He went out of his way to meet with the head of the AFD.
That's a political party that's under investigation.
So they're doing the same thing over there, just like how they had 5,000 FBI people investigating the January 6th protesters that were all instigated by the FBI.
They're doing that.
So now they're, oh, there's a political party under investigation by the people who are censoring free speech and putting people in jail for silently praying.
They're the ones investigating a political organization.
What would someone silently praying across the street do to you?
Like, let's say you go, hey, just because that guy sneezed over there, I don't want to get my abortion now.
Good.
What's the tragedy here?
Gabriel's people.
We need to meet with the head of the AFD.
That's a political party that's under investigation in Germany because it's so far right and for because it's so far right.
So we just decided that we've got they're under investigation because they're so far right.
It's under investigation in Germany because they're so far right.
So far right.
What does that mean?
Are they not?
It's just super far.
They're just too right.
So we have to investigate.
They sends it to even more right.
So being so far right is illegal.
You can't be far right.
You mean like being censorious?
I mean, that kind of the hallmark of a dictator?
Yeah, they're so far right.
They want free speech that can lead to genocide.
They mean they're so far right that they're canceling democratically decided elections.
You mean, oh no, they're not doing that?
They said they'd like to tweet their displeasure at their leaders.
Potentially conducting extremism.
And he mentioned that car ran.
Potentially conducting.
So do you see all the buzzwords?
They're just saying extremists.
This is what does that mean?
They're actually under investigation in Germany for being so far right that they could potentially be doing extremism.
She said, conducting extremism.
Are they doing a skateboard park?
What are you talking about?
What?
Do you hear?
These are news people.
Oh, my God.
Those are all bad words.
They could be conducting extremism, far-right.
Everything they don't like is far right.
Freedom of speech, far-right.
Freedom of speech is actually equals Hitler in Munich recently conducted by an Afghan migrant as an example of what he says is out of control migration.
He says that's proof you've got to bring immigration skeptics into the government.
Immigration skeptics.
Immigration skeptics.
What you got immigration skeptic.
These people are out of their minds.
That's going to be the new conspiracy theorists when you're a skeptic of skeptic.
Yeah, you're an immigration skeptic.
Are you skeptical of things?
Here I start using these at people.
What are you, a Trump skeptic?
And here's this mouthpiece and tool of the Brian Stelter.
Here he is at the World Economic Forum, and here they are bragging about ending free speech under the guise of protecting people from hate.
Watch this.
And it's coming to the United States.
Well, we need the people who understand the language and the case law in the country.
Because what qualifies as hate speech as illegal hate speech, which you will have soon also in the U.S., I think that ha ha hallegal hate speech, which you will have sued.
You will have sued in the United States.
Did you hear Bryce Delter?
Did you hear us?
Watch this.
Listen, we need the people who understand the language and the case law in the country.
Because what qualifies as hate speech as illegal hate speech, which you will have soon also in the U.S. I think that we have a strong reason why we have this in the criminal law.
There's a reason why we have this in the criminal law.
Yes, so we can suppress people and criminalize speech when we want to, when it serves the establishment.
That's why we have this in the law.
Ha ha.
The case law.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Wait, for people who hate Nazis, they sure love Nazis.
They sure love Nazism.
As if the Nazis were for free speech.
You are the Nazis.
Also, you have to give them in Ukraine, you morons.
They gave you Nazis weapons.
So as you're cracking down on free speech, canceling elections, and you're saying that free speech leads to Nazism, and you're the far right wingers who are funding a genocide and putting people in jail who speak out against the genocide at the same time as you give weapons to legit Nazis in Ukraine.
Do you see how they are the thing they claim to be fighting?
Do you see how every accusation is a confession?
Don't make me cry.
Don't make me cry like the chairman of the Munich.
They're far right.
Extremism.
What's more extreme than canceling elections and putting people in prison for thought crimes?
What's more extreme than that?
What's more extreme?
What's more extreme than putting people in jail for protesting against a genocide, which you're funding as the same time you're giving weapons to legit Nazis in Ukraine?
They are, this is what liberalism has come to.
So installing a friend of al-Baghdadi to run Syria.
That's right.
You're the one who, you're the one who put the guy, the al-Qaeda head in charge of Syria.
This is a, this is what liberals have come.
That's what it's come to now.
Not only are they for pro-censorship, not only are they canceling elections, not only are they putting people in jail who speak out against a genocide, but they're also funding Nazis at the same time as saying free speech will equal Nazis.
Oh man, is anybody out there good at editing that could take that News Nation egg UFO footage and put Brian Steltzer's head on the egg?
This is, and they're, and they giggle about the, well, there's a reason why we have these, you can't speak, you can't have thoughts.
I re-re-yeah.
Who's the guy who did that book?
Go in your face.
You have to be, you know why they could be in your face is because there's a new generation of suckers born every minute.
So the millennials, they snapped up by screwing them out of every other possibility in life.
So they gave them this like Nazi ethic.
And then they're trying to get the Zoomers on board with you can be whatever space gender you want.
Once you notice that this seems like the other thing from a while back, you're old.
So screw you.
You're almost dead.
This is to trick the next generation into thinking this is normal.
Just like everybody notices their rights slowly going away.
Yeah.
You know, but it's gradual.
And by the time you realize it, you're on your way out.
I remember when Paul Provenza, the guy who did that Saturistas book, and he was just on stage one night going, free speech is an absolute.
It's an absolute.
I'll never forget.
I was like, he's right.
All those people have now switched because of Trump.
Now they got to be against hate speech.
So you got to, you got to, you got to curate the internet.
You can't just let it be wild what you got to.
If people are lying about you and doing what you should have recourse to sue them and whatever.
Yeah, someone, someone's leading.
People try to redefine what free speech is.
That's right.
They do a free will.
They try to make it like there's no such thing.
Yeah.
Just redefine it into nothingness.
If someone damages you with slander, there's laws for that.
It's amazing what's going on.
This is how far as the liberals are literally funding a genocide and throwing people in jail who speak out about it, who protest it, as they suppress free speech, use censorship, and cancel elections at the same time as they're funding legit Nazis in Ukraine.
They're calling someone else an extremist.
That woman's calling, she's calling, this woman thinks someone else is an extremist.
No, that's what this, that's what the face of extremism looks like.
I know you didn't think it did.
That's what it looks like.
Her.
That's what a nice little Nazi looks like.
This is for your good.
We're doing it for your good.
We don't want you to conduct extremism.
So we're taking away your free speech.
We're throwing you in jail for protesting a genocide.
And we're going to send some more guns and bombs to legit Nazis in Ukraine.
We're doing this for democracy.
Do you remember Tim Russert was the host of Face the Nation back in the day?
Meet the press.
Who was the Face Nation host?
Somebody qualified for this.
Schaefer.
Really?
Remember the old guy?
Yeah, Schaefer.
Yeah.
Glenn Greenwald says, those who fail to refuse to see the massive opportunities from this Trump-led realignment and instead enslave themselves to the broken, ossified, unimaginative status quo perpetuating Democratic Party are some of the dumbest people on the planet.
The smarter and more honest leftists around the world can see this and give Trump credit where it's due.
The only ones who refuse are the media liberals who built their life and brand in enslavement to the Democratic Party and can never see or acknowledge it.
What are we talking about?
Well, here's a clip of the new defense secretary laying down the law to the NATO people over at the Munich Security Council.
That's where Anna Kasperian said it was an honor to talk to a genocider.
Remember that?
Yeah.
And so here he is, and he's going to let you know what Donald Trump's plan is for Ukraine.
Are you ready for this?
I'll tell you who isn't ready for this.
The other NATO countries.
They're not ready for this.
Oh, we shouldn't have blown that pipeline up.
Wah, wah.
Here we go.
And I appreciate the opportunity to share President Trump's approach to the war in Ukraine.
We are at, as you said, Mr. Secretary, a critical moment.
As the war approaches its third anniversary, our message is clear.
The bloodshed must stop, and this war must end.
President Trump has been clear with the American people and with Mitch.
Could you imagine Joe Biden or Anthony Blinken saying something like that?
No, I can imagine them going, it's up to Israel.
We can't tell Israel when to stop the bloodshed.
We can only pay for it.
Of your leaders, that stopping the fighting and reaching an enduring peace is a top priority.
He intends to end this war by diplomacy and bringing both Russia and Ukraine to the table.
And the U.S. Department of Defense will help achieve this goal.
We will only end this devastating war and establish a durable peace by coupling allied strength with a realistic assessment of the battlefield.
Realistic.
That is something that Europe has not heard, that NATO has not heard for years.
Number one, that the goal is to end the war, not to continue it.
And number two, that you have to be realistic about the state of the war, the battlefield, which is extremely favorable for Russia and extremely unfavorable for Ukraine.
And if the war continues, it will only get more so because Ukraine is running out of soldiers, running out of people to send to the front line, whereas Russia is not.
To hear this, it's like music to one's ears.
This is the sort of thing that a lot of us have been saying for three years now.
And we would be one of those people.
We said it the minute the war started, that this war is going to end the way Russia wants it to end.
And this is not going to be good for Ukraine.
And all those people lied to you and said, Ukraine's Winning the war.
I had asshole after asshole after a-hole in my DMs, comedians that I know personally telling me that Ukraine's winning the war and Ukraine is going to.
You're on the wrong side of this, Jimmy.
People who believe what they read in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and here on the TV news.
Who also don't care about Ukraine.
Let's be honest.
Someone told them that they care about it and they cared about it.
And then when Ukraine loses less territory than they had to start, all your friends are going to just have, you're going to go, hey, how about the Ukraine?
They're going to, but what?
What?
I don't know.
It's just like it's over.
And so there you have it.
That's Pete Hegseth, the new defense secretary, like a white buffalo, a very rare sighting of a high-ranking political figure saying the war is supposed to be over rather than continue forever.
And he had questionable tattoos, if you recall, the mainstream reporting.
Yes, questionable tattoos.
Not more questionable than when Pete Davidson got Hillary Clinton tattooed on his leg, but pretty questionable.
And I look forward, Kurt, as you do, I'm sure, to the days and weeks when this momentous event simply becomes another conspiracy theory that never happened.
I'm thinking by next Wednesday.
I would say it's done.
So Hegseth goes on.
Here's some more what he had to say to the people at NATO who did not want to hear this.
Like you, a sovereign and prosperous Ukraine.
But we must start by recognizing that returning to Ukraine's pre-2014 borders is an unrealistic objective.
Not happening.
Chasing this illusionary goal will only prolong the war and cause more suffering.
So this whole idea, well, the war could be over as soon as Putin and Russia pull out of the territory.
He's not pulling out.
You guys provoked a war.
You poked the bear.
Now he's taken Crimea.
He's taken all those other territories.
And he's not giving it back.
You guys screwed up.
You guys changed, Jimmy?
What's that?
Shoot.
I forgot I was going to say.
Okay.
So he's got more to say.
No, that's it.
Let's play it again.
Like you.
A sovereign and prosperous Ukraine.
But we must start by recognizing that returning to Ukraine's pre-2014 borders is an unrealistic objective.
Chasing this illusionary goal will only prolong the war and cause more suffering.
As we've been saying at this show from day one.
Yeah, Jimmy, a lot of people got preemptively pardoned back to 2014.
I think that's the big game changer here.
Yes.
Because a bunch of perpetrators have been pardoned.
That's right.
Going back to 2014.
Now, and then, plus, what's his name?
Lindsey Graham is like, well, I just wanted minerals.
Yeah.
I've had enough blood.
Here, he's got one more thing to tell you about how no U.S. troops are going to be sent to Ukraine.
And that, and if you're going to send any troops, they got to be European, and they can't be under Article 5.
What is Article 5?
Article 5 is: if you attack one NATO soldier, you're attacking all NATO soldiers.
And so now we all have to declare war on you.
Watch.
He's going to say it right here.
Watch this.
Must include robust security guarantees to ensure that the war will not begin again.
This must not be Minsk 3.0.
That said.
What is Minsk?
Minsk one and two were the peace agreements that were brokered between Russia and Ukraine to have peace.
And then Ukraine broke every one of those peace agreements because they were told to by NATO, by Boris Johnson and Joe Biden and Anthony Blinken.
That's why.
So that's what he means by this can't be Minsk 3.0.
We can have a peace agreement and then it gets broken again by UMFers.
Okay.
The United States does not believe that NATO membership for Ukraine is a realistic outcome of a negotiated settlement.
Oh, Demi!
Ukraine was always the junkyard dog for America.
They were never going to be invited into the house.
They're just let to sit outside, rain or shine, defending garbage.
That's how we treated Ukraine.
That's true.
If we cared about the Ukrainian people, we would not tolerate the way they grab young men off the street, stick them into a van, and send them to the front line to get slaughtered.
Okay, he's got more to say.
Instead, any security guarantee must be backed by capable European and non-European troops.
So you guys, not of the United States, not NATO, you guys, the Europeans.
Believe me, the people don't want to hear this at the Moscow security conference.
You have to do it.
We're not doing it.
No more.
Here we go.
If these troops are deployed as peacekeepers to Ukraine at any point, they should be deployed as part of a non-NATO mission.
Not on NATO.
And they should not be covered under Article 5.
There you go.
So you guys are sending troops to ensure a peace between Ukraine and Russia, and they're not going to be considered NATO troops.
They're not going to be covered under Article 5.
Meaning, if they get killed by somebody from Russia, the United States does not see that as an attack on the United States.
That's what Article 5 says.
If you attack one NATO country, you attack all of us, and then we have to declare war.
He's saying, we're not doing that.
When you send soldiers to ensure the peace, European soldiers, they are not NATO soldiers.
That's what he's saying.
We are.
That's great.
I can't believe how well that turned Out.
Me too.
There also must be robust international oversight of the line of contact.
To be clear, as part of any security guarantee, there will not be U.S. troops deployed to bang.
Bam.
Hammer time.
So this is what's called great.
This is called great news.
This is called a great thing that Trump and Hegseth are doing.
Now, because you're a lefty poser and you have a hate boner for Trump and Hegseth and anything to do with Trump, that is a bad flex.
You, if you were like Frederick Douglass, you would join with them to do right because what they're doing right now is right.
You should be.
That's where they do wrong.
You can split.
You can go, hey, that was wrong what you did.
Yes.
You just have to maintain the same principle the whole time and worry about the actual what's being done and not your fee fees about who you like or don't.
I don't care who you like.
That does not matter.
What did they do?
You know, tree buy its fruit.
So as long as the fruit's good, I don't care.
So it's over.
This garbage in Ukraine is over.
And the progressives, people like Code Pink, the people who consider themselves anti-war should be cheering this on and thanking Donald Trump and Hegseth for doing this.
This is music to our ears, as Greg Glenn Greenwald said, and Greg Greenwald.
I like Greg Delinwald a little better.
But whose fault do you think it is, Jimmy?
Russia or Ukraine?
That was a real question I heard asked of the president.
Whose fault is it, though?
Oh, Kaylin Collins from NBC.
Yeah.
Oh, she's from CNN, isn't she?
I mean, CNN.
It don't matter.
They're all going down.
So there you go.
It's all over.
And here is Jeremy Scahill.
And this is from a while ago.
And he's going to tell you that Trump, even in his first term, had a better view on foreign policy than any of the Democrats have had in my lifetime.
Let's watch this.
When Trump was president, I mean, clearly Donald Trump is not someone who represents much of my worldview, but there were elements of Trump's foreign policy that represented a departure from what we saw under the eight years of Barack Obama or kind of the elite consensus in Washington, D.C. And anytime we would point out, like I did a story at one point where I was talking about Trump's kind of stated opposition to forever wars.
And I wrote something and did a podcast on it that said that Trump might be our best bet to actually get out of some of these.
And I was making a complicated argument that had to do with the nature of this alliance between the neocons and the Democrats and how Trump, whatever you think of him, represented, you know, Cy Hirsch said at the time as a circuit breaker.
This isn't to praise him.
It's to state facts.
Well, people went completely nuts.
Oh, Scahill is pro-Trump.
Oh, you called Trump the dove.
I never called Trump the dove.
The guy expanded drone strikes.
He was the mother of all bombs.
He assassinated Qasim Suleimani.
I mean, Trump was a highly militaristic president, but he had certain basic things that he had put on record that were a departure from the way that Democrats and Republicans talk.
And I think we have an obligation to point that out and not just treat it as, you know, Orange Hitler is coming back into power.
Like we have a responsibility to what's true and what's not.
So that's what we do here at this show.
Now, a lot of people don't like that.
They just want me to go Orange Man bad, Orange Man, people bad, Elon bad, Tulsi bad, Cash Patel bad, Hegset bad.
That's what they want to.
There's Jeremy Scahill telling you, that's ridiculous.
We have a responsibility to tell you the truth.
And that's what I'm doing.
That's what we're doing.
But you're never going to convince.
And what he's telling you there is that for all of Trump's presidency, you were lied to by the mainstream media.
You were lied to.
He wasn't making a complicated argument, by the way, Jimmy.
No.
These people are such liars.
They complicate a simple thing, which is who is trying to make us not have a forever war?
Who is trying to make things transparent?
If he stops making things transparent, that's the time to yell.
Yes.
Not the time where they're making it transparent.
That should happen.
But I'm never going to convince, and neither will you, Kurt, any of our friends who are successful in mainstream Hollywood, that the television is lying to them because the TV has been so good to them.
This is the hand that, that's the hand that feeds them.
So their opinion automatically voids itself.
Oh, they'll all turn on it once it goes against the fake thing that they all believe in, which it's doing right now.
And they're all getting mad.
There's no more U.S. aid to pay for crap nobody wants.
That's right.
And so just let me one more time, Glenn Greenwald.
Those who failed or refuse to see the massive opportunities from this Trump-led realignment and instead enslaved themselves to the broken, ossified, unimaginative status quo perpetuating Democratic Party are some of the dumbest people on the planet.
That would be your Kyle Kalinsky's, your crystal balls.
The smarter and more honest leftists around the world can see this and give Trump the credit where it's due.
That would be this show.
Thanks.
I know he's talking about me.
The only ones who refuse are the media liberals who have built their life and brand and enslavement to the Democratic Party and can never see or acknowledge it.
So great work, great work by new Defense Secretary Peter Hegseth.
Great work by Trump.
Well, when they do right, I'm going to let you know.
When they do wrong, we're going to let you know.
Because you know why?
Because I'm not an adult child of an alcoholic.
Because that's what adult children of alcoholics do.
They defend the status quo.
They defend the Democratic Party.
They defend their abusers.
And they don't want to know the truth.
They don't want anything revealed.
Well, because they make these people into their Jesus, even if they're atheists.
They don't give it.
These people hate your Jesus.
That's right.
They're employees of your vote.
Look at it that way.
You're not supposed to go like, well, I think he's bad inside.
I don't care how he is inside.
I care what he did outside.
That's right.
The Americans, just like adult children of alcoholics, they don't get mad at the person screwing them.
They get mad at the person who tells you that someone's screwing them.
I liked Obama and would defend him.
You want to jerk off, I feel like, for that?
Yeah.
