Republicans MUST Replace RBG Immediately! | Dave Landau Guests | Good Morning #MugClub
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
🎵 Yeah!
That's funky.
Very nice.
Good job.
By the way, I won't hear for about four weeks because my headphones were adjusted for the Biden livestream.
Oh no.
Which got taken down from YouTube, as you all well know.
But that was a slurp on beat!
How about that?
We practiced all weekend.
Love us or hate us, we blaze trails.
Very excited for today's show, by the way.
We're going to be talking about filling RBG's seat.
We're going to be talking about the update on the riots.
Recently, my name left the lips of Senator Ted Cruz at a Senate hearing, and we'll be playing bad movie lines.
But first, my half-Asian lawyer Bill Richman is here, and so is Dave Landau from Compound Media there, the Anthony Cumia show.
Hello, everyone.
And you have your own show.
Can I say co-host with Anthony?
Or does he have a thing about that?
No, he's good.
It's the Anthony Cumia Show with Dave Lando.
Really?
It is.
Good for you!
It's very small, but it's on there.
Nick, you play your cards right, you could be doing a voiceover in Wheaties commercial.
I'm the sweet side!
I'm the tough side!
Oh boy, I play a cop!
Hey, good morning.
It's been a while.
I'm getting a little rusty.
Audio Wade and Gerald A. How are you, sir?
I'm well, sir.
How are you?
Is the baby keeping you up?
Will I adjust these headphones?
No, no, no.
My wife's doing a fantastic job with the kiddo.
Really?
So still married?
Still married.
Yep.
Very nice.
Absolutely.
That's good.
Very much so.
This is about the time that I should let you know before we get to the question of the day.
We are available also on Apple and Android so you can listen to the podcast on audio because a lot of people don't know they want to take with them on the road.
And we will take in your live chat after on Mug Club.
There's like 45 minute more show.
Yeah.
Got to stay around.
The question of the day first is, do you think that President Trump should be replacing the RBG seat?
The notorious RBG.
Remember when they tried to make her seem... They tried to make RBG seem like she was really hip.
Yeah, she's hip.
You know, she's not a hundred million years old.
Right, and even by that standard, that's a rough hundred million years old.
It really is.
It was not... She wasn't fit as a fiddle.
No.
Unless you found a fiddle in a tomb.
Yeah, very cool.
Using a reference from the 1990s.
Yes.
Very, very cool.
And I want to be clear, because of our new deal with Spotify, we have to inform you that we don't support filling the seat, because RBG is still with us.
So we need to wait until after... Yeah, as a guest on the show.
Oh my gosh.
She's just having herself a nice vacation.
She's looking great for someone from the late tribes.
Is that right, RBG?
I don't know why she's doing... She's a bilingual!
RBG.
And we can't have Joe Louis in the studio because he tried to eat her.
That's a little side-by-side.
Oh, wow, he did, huh?
She's bony.
Yeah, she's all bone.
Dave, you're the only guest third chairman who I would feel comfortable doing this with.
Oh, well, I appreciate it.
Yeah.
I enjoy a good... If you haven't had the target on your back from the stuff that you've done with Compound, this will be sure that... like Predator at a laser range.
I just want to make sure, yeah, right in the center of my head.
Yes, exactly.
It was just a laser light!
Maybe I'll get to meet her soon.
Who knows?
What, you mean you're going to be going to her beach house?
Yes.
That would be wonderful.
I'll be breaking in.
And then write a sequel that is sort of the class study on a corporate cash grab where they don't even try?
Is that what you mean?
I think that's what you meant.
So before we move on here to the riots and to RBG, Jimmy Kimmel hosted the Emmys yesterday.
Because black stories, black performances, and black lives matter.
It was so painful to watch, but of course, as always, they have to inject social justice,
and it was even more uncomfortable considering that it was pre-taped and they were doing
it without a live audience.
So we do have a video of the exchange with Anthony Anderson.
So many Black Andersons, I can't keep track.
And Jimmy Kittle.
Because Black stories, Black performances, and Black lives matter.
Say it with me, Jimmy.
Black lives matter.
What the hell going on up there?
Louder, Jimmy!
Black Lives Matter!
UFO live on other planet?
Born and home like E.T.?
Louder, Jimmy!
Say it, so that my pips can hear it!
Black Lives Matter!
Soft brown stomach protects my knees and ankles from unnecessary wear and tear.
Got it!
That means shut up in Spanish.
That's right.
To be clear, that pales in comparison to my homeland's Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau.
It does.
Some people dabble in blackface.
He looks scared.
Some people dabble in blackface.
It's his raison d'être.
He's real blackface, though.
Yes.
I feel like we've now just confused a costume and blackface.
Right.
It's just a strange thing to me.
You mean the costume from Jimmy Kimmel?
Yeah, it's just a guy in a costume.
I don't have a problem with it.
Yeah, I don't care.
But I do have a problem with the guy trying to crucify people for doing the same thing.
Yeah, 100%.
It's hypocrisy.
Yes, to be clear.
I mean, come on.
Listen, you think I'm offended?
I don't care.
That's my white privilege.
It's just I'm a tasteless person.
It's your tasteless person privilege.
Yes, it is.
By the way, I love that we have another black man yelling at white men to say Black Lives Matter louder.
That's always a good thing.
When you're forcing somebody, I mean, this has never historically been the case.
Yeah, like forcing them at gunpoint.
Yeah, pretty much.
You better raise your fist and say, and there's this old man who's confused.
Black Lives Matter!
Say it louder!
He's like, I can't!
I did!
I have to poop!
And then they just... no, Joe Biden wasn't there. Oh, Joe wasn't there. I'm sorry. I thought he was.
Now we move on to... by the way, does anyone here have to poop?
No. I'm good. I'm good. No?
I'm good. Last time it does hurt.
Saving that for later.
Dirts from the programming in general.
This is something you were asking me, AudioWaite, if this was surreal before we
move on to RBG and the riots, and we will get to that.
Um, see you.
Senator Ted Cruz in a Senate hearing mentioned when they were talking about sort of online censorship, and this is a really pivotal issue going into the election because people want to talk about Russian interference.
What was it, 3,000 ads with $10,000?
I mean, that's something that an Instagram ass model selling MyFitTea spends in a week.
We're supposed to believe that that would Tug at the thread of our institutions of a constitutional republic?
No, of course not.
But big social media, they're removing searches, they're putting them down lower in the search.
They've talked about how they will fact check any claim of winning the election, Donald Trump on election day, like nearly every election.
So now all of a sudden the norms have changed a little bit.
And Senator Ted Cruz was actually talking about his discussion personally with YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki.
This is something that happened recently.
Let's roll clip.
Let's talk about YouTube for a second and our time is wrapping up here.
Some time ago I visited with the YouTube CEO who reports to Google.
And she described to me with respect to Steven Crowder, another conservative slash libertarian comedian talk show host, who Google demonetized.
She described how the left was pushing YouTube to ban him altogether and she sat in my office and argued that we should be happy.
That YouTube didn't ban him, they simply demonetized him.
They simply took away his ability to earn money and she thought that was a middle ground.
Even though she conceded that he'd done nothing to violate YouTube's terms of service.
I will say it's weird watching that.
It's gotta be.
And concerning.
He didn't call you an asshole, that's great!
But think about this.
We talk about sort of how big media companies now – I mean, what was it?
The West Indian Trading Company, like, employed a fifth of the population on Earth.
But there's never been a government entity more powerful than if you take up the big three, right?
YouTube, Google, Facebook, Twitter.
And they have, like, had to call me out by name.
And talk about how they want to, it's worse than Caesar doing this!
And it's like, I just have to be like, I'm just, it was just a goof!
I was messing around!
And I don't know if this is gonna help or hurt my case, but it should help!
You can't take all of this seriously!
At least you're consistent.
You're consistently an asshole.
That's terrifying.
It really is.
I would worry.
Yeah, well, Hirono, what's the name of that crazy broad from Hawaii?
I hate speech.
That's actually a good impression.
Hey, everyone stop.
I'm pushing a hay feet.
Oh, poi poi.
Whatever the dish is.
What's the dish?
It's not poi poi.
Oh, poki poki poki.
Poki.
Poki ball.
I don't know.
I just like, listen, stay on track, Corona.
This is a city here.
I can't.
I love a poki.
I love a poki and censorship.
So I think she's Japanese now.
Can't stop her.
She's hungry.
I think Hawaiian.
Hey, everyone stop.
It's wrong to hate.
That's true.
It's true.
The only thing I hate is hate.
Yes.
That's the only thing to hate.
Like Biden just stealing speeches.
The only thing I hate is hate itself, my god.
End of sentence.
What's that crinkling?
It happens every time you walk.
Coincidence!
You're not selling me on it.
Potato chip hips.
And this comes after the Biden stream, by the way, was removed on YouTube!
This just happened, and thank you so much to the people who joined at lighterwithcredit.com.
We did the whole stream there, so it also was a little bit more wild and wooly because we were not having to be beholden to the YouTube standards.
It's not that different, but you know, I may have made some jokes about those of the homosexual persuasionals.
And YouTube claim, this is at the exact same time, listen, Half-Asian Bill, I don't think I'm speaking out of turn when I say that people know we have been communicating directly with YouTube, the Vox Apocalypse was because of us, and they reached out, and now Ted Cruz has been talking with Susan Wojcicki, he says, that could be a long time ago, we were just recently re-monetized, so, cats out of the bag, there have been direct conversations, and you would think that being the biggest conservative YouTube channel ever, that, you know, we'd have a direct line of communication when a false copyright strike, this happening... You'd think so.
On Biden's stream, and YouTube said, they responded with, when we receive a valid DMCA takedown notice about content that allegedly violates the copyright of a rights holder, we're required by law to remove the content.
We allow creators to file a counter notification.
The keyword there should be valid.
Yeah, exactly.
Was this a valid copyright strike?
Was it from someone at Time Warner?
Was it the president?
Was it Jeff Zucker?
I don't think Zucker was on it.
So this is the problem.
I call him just Zucker.
With an S. When you have a bad law with a company that doesn't even know how to enforce it in the right way.
Right.
Their system.
So the DMCA, they're right.
The DMCA does say that if you get a valid complaint that is signed under penalty of perjury, all of that, and they represent who they are, then you have to take this material down.
However, This person is a known quantity.
The email that was used to send this particular request was already flagged in 2019 and 2018 publicly as someone who had falsely represented they were part of various media companies.
So is it... And that's aside the fact that this was not even a copyright violation at all.
Right, well it wasn't a copyright violation.
It wasn't someone who had the authority, right, to issue a copyright violation.
And we've had several other false violations, right, flagged in this.
Has there ever been a single one that we haven't fought and won?
No.
No.
Every single one.
But guess what?
You don't get that revenue back.
When you're doing a stream and it's getting more viewers than CNN and it's climbing 70,000, 80,000, however many people are watching it, you don't get it back.
And then afterwards, just so we don't get back the revenue for the year, right?
This is the unfair, selective application of the law.
I want to be clear, and I think Dave, you and I agree with it, it's not about censorship.
If YouTube says, hey, we don't want conservatives and we want Joe Biden to be elected, fine.
Now, I think their stock price would take a nosedive, but they keep claiming the opposite.
And in this case, we have someone who's a known bad-faith actor who's been doing this repeatedly.
We didn't actually violate any copyright.
And every single time precedent has been set before precedence, either could apply here, I guess.
No, just the first one.
Just the first one.
That's what I thought.
That's why I said it first.
I said it first, but gave myself some wiggle room.
Take notes, Joe Biden.
Don't die on the Hill when you don't know your shit!
The precedent has said that.
We've always fought and won.
So all I'm saying is, at what point do you acknowledge, hey, we maybe should have an open line and give the benefit of the doubt to the creators who have actually been... We follow the rules.
The leftists, who by the way these laws favor because they always want a silent speech, how many times have we gone around with a false copyright claim to get content or points of view that we don't like taken down?
I don't think anyone in this room has ever even thought of it!
Why would we care?
I want your ideas to be out there.
If they're so bad, people can point at them and go, yeah, that's a really bad idea.
Right, they don't stand up to scrutiny.
By the way, after all of these false copyright strikes that we've gotten through, wouldn't you think they'd take five minutes, like, tune to the show, take a look, and be like, hmm, nope, they're not breaking any rules.
Maybe this is something they should act on.
They'd have to have someone at Alphabet tune into the show and have an entire therapy wing.
Yeah, if they get one email from WarnerBro at gmail.com.
They're like, take it down!
It wasn't even that, it was completely like random letters put together.
It was like Butterfly Kisses 69 at Hotmail.
But isn't it just the ultimate hypocrisy?
They're using the same thing that supposedly got Trump elected to basically get you off the air.
Right, exactly.
And are we shooting a porn?
Because there is a fireplace here.
There is a fireplace.
It's usually because Joe Louis is here and he likes the warm fireplace, but RBG has been, well she's been made of bones for years.
You don't want him to grab that.
Before the show, all I see... I think there were some tumors on the bones for a while.
All I see is R.B.G.
just slowly tugging.
And I look down and I see him grabbing the... No!
No!
Not R.B.G.!
Not R.B.G.!
That would instill mistrust in our institution.
That crosses the line.
Doesn't Joe Louis know?
She's fragile enough as it is.
And this also comes at a point, this is what's so scary about this, is there's really no place to go at this point.
We've been talking about this, they need to decide if they are a public platform or if they are a publisher.
And you see recently there was a story with Spotify and Joe Rogan where they've been putting pressure on him and they want direct editorial oversight over the podcast because people who work at Spotify are upset.
Listen!
Boot them, Spotify!
Fire those people!
It's a licensing agreement!
That's what Joe Rogan has.
You have no right to tell him what to do.
Unfortunately, we've seen a lot of the controversial podcasts not be ported over to Spotify.
And I would hate to see the content change, but we do know that employees at Spotify right now are wanting that to happen.
Like, why do you want to?
You just want to destroy all of the fun things.
It's a $100 million talent, and you're upset that some blue-hair intern is angry with you?
Where's your investment?
I don't know.
Our stock price went up $200 billion, but she does have a pussy hat.
She does identify as four things.
Do you think we should get rid of them?
Tell us more about your WAP.
Is it wet?
Yeah, that's as they bring in Cardi B. I do not think that you should have Joe Rogan on your show because I cut my asshole when I was cleaning with my pinky nail.
That's almost nonsensical.
That's gonna mess your balance up.
It's gonna mess your balance up!
I've been walking with a limp, and since my weight carry is low, it really affects me more.
Like one of those dolls that you punch and it comes back up.
You're like, the fuck?
Why you letting Joe Rogan go down there after eating a hot dog?
If you haven't been following Cardi B's Instagram, that's not funny to you, it's just horrifying.
As it should be!
I believe those are direct quotes.
This was basically news, if you haven't been following her.
This is what she's saying.
Speaking of news, let's go to CNN really quickly.
What are they talking about?
More colleges cancelling spring break to help slow virus spread.
What about the Folsom Street Fair?
Never did that for HPV.
Nothing like cancelling spring break seven months in advance.
I don't know what they're expecting at this point.
Let's just close all of the things.
And why is this lady talking about it?
She hasn't seen spring break in a decade.
That's one of those weird things you can see.
Listen, a pretty woman, but you know how you can tell?
It's because the face is completely smooth, and then it's like her arms are like an ex-bodybuilder's arms.
Oh, like with a vascular degeneracy.
Yeah, she has the Jim Henson kind of beak.
Yes, the dark crystal.
Yes, very much.
Like she's just had a paddling in your chair.
That's exactly right.
The point is, don't trust her on spring break.
So, let's go back now and look at the riots, because this matters.
Since RBG's death, the left, they've of course, surprise surprise, vowed more extreme violence.
Very peaceful.
Of course.
Here's the thing.
Mostly peaceful.
Threats don't work when you've already done the shit that you're threatening to do.
Right.
People understand that?
We're gonna burn your cities down!
I have a city view!
I have a penthouse!
Look, just get the telescope out of the way and look with your eyes!
We're gonna do more of that!
Okay, well, I'm gonna leave!
Yeah, it's like the Bond villain hitting the bomb and then the rest of the movie happens.
Oh, well, I already did it.
I have my ways of making you talk.
What, are you going to have the laser slowly creep up my girlfriend, the love of my life's crotch area until it... No, I've already shot her in the head.
Is that convincing enough?
No!
That last song was so depressing, I just thought Bond was going to kill himself.
Was that the gay Sam, what's his name?
No, it wasn't Sam, it was the other one, the girl.
Oh, Billie Eilish.
Did you get a Bond song?
That movie hasn't come out yet.
Oh, yeah.
It's very whispery.
I think it's just, I wanna die will be the movie.
It's very Billie Eilish.
Die again tomorrow, forever, dying another day.
It's so depressing.
But it's gonna sound like Pseudo-Lord.
Licensed to die another tomorrow.
When did that happen with every single film preview?
It's like, take a breath and...
And they all have that stupid, like, why is Satan the newsboy at it?
Yeah, exactly.
Stop!
Can you be creative with anything?
It's either that or the entire movie.
Right, yeah.
That's the other trailer.
Or no movie, sometimes.
Like, just a bunch of jump cuts.
Like, what is this?
I get that you're Oscar bait, I saw Sean Penn crying, okay, is it his daughter?
Fine, but what's the film about?
And you show up, you're like, oh, Pedophiles.
You could have said everything!
But how would they get you to watch it if they said that in the trailer?
That's absolutely true.
Worked for cuties.
So, RBG, they've been threatening more violence.
And you know what?
Here's something people don't know.
They already got started over the weekend.
So, RBG died.
If they fill this seat, this is the controversy right now.
People are saying it's hypocritical for Republicans, for Donald Trump to fill this seat, this empty seat on the Supreme Court.
Which again, you know, it's more so that she's stepping over.
So we want to be clear.
Don't buy the fake news.
She's okay, look at her.
I thought you said they had an emcee.
Yeah, that's what I thought.
They already got started underway this weekend, but don't take my word for it.
Somebody record this.
Somebody record this.
Catch that.
Catch that for me.
I thought they just had an MC.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Live performing the riots.
What the f*** are you doing?
Hopefully beating your ass.
Oh, bro.
What are you doing?
I'm standing right here.
Someone squeaking a dog toy?
Oh look at this dog.
This one's creepy, I hate this.
Yeah, I really hate this.
Yeah, the reason that dog, if you guys can see, look, you'll see the dog at one point.
Yeah, the only reason the dog didn't maul them was because they had it.
I want to be really clear, and half-Asian people might not like me saying this, but if you reach in my car, Betty and Joe Louis will cause permanent harm to you and be rewarded with every cheese I can find.
And I feel no remorse whatsoever.
And I'm not saying it needs to exit the vehicle.
What you put in the vehicle will remain in the vehicle five exits down.
There'll just be this blood squirting arm in the passenger seat.
We've all seen Jurassic Park.
That's about what happens.
They can smell your jugular.
That's the point.
And I believe they had a, what, a Massachusetts plate that was his violation?
Was it?
I think that's what it was.
Well, they were actually there to protest.
Friendly fire.
Yeah, it was friendly fire.
I really hope they understand us.
See how everybody else feels?
See?
No, they don't care.
They're not going to understand this moving forward.
They're just going to go burn other people's stuff.
And I will tell you this.
This is like when they were beating up that raccoon, the Black Lives Matter activists.
Listen, I know people will say, well, you're a meat eater.
I am.
I am.
It's not purposeless, needless, meaningless death.
Context matters.
Yes, I eat meat.
I don't go out and throw a rock at a dog for no reason.
Yes, I eat.
Yes, I enjoy venison.
Yes, I might go for a deer hunt this year.
I wouldn't beat a raccoon with a stone just to prove a point.
Yeah.
And was the raccoon a cop?
I don't know.
I would have assumed he was on their side.
It's the one animal that always has them.
They're bandits every time!
It's permanent!
And it's about as effective as those people who always wear a mask!
They come out at night, they don't have jobs.
They loot!
They are looting masked animals!
Yeah, they don't ask to take your garbage.
They don't ask!
They should be your mascot, if anything!
Think about it!
Yes!
You picked the worst animal to kill!
Are raccoons like the common enemy that we all need to bond around and be like, oh, they're here.
We're gonna get to eat our rotten lunch.
It's really more of a symbol.
I think you're talking about sacrifice.
This doesn't feel right.
I'm talking about hat wear.
I'm talking about facewear because I, unlike Dave Landau, believe the scientists.
So let's review this really quickly.
Now they're protesting even more.
The George Floyd-based riots, right, started in, I believe, late May.
May, yeah.
That's when they started.
Yeah.
About, yeah, right, it was right after the Muck Club quarantine month.
Labor Day.
Yeah.
Or Memorial Day.
Which the worst, you know what though?
It did sort of, it was Memorial Day, that's right, it wasn't Labor Day.
Because I was going to say, sometimes they're still rioting, and I've seen a few pairs of white pants.
Oh no.
You shouldn't ever.
It's so tacky.
I know.
I think that's the cause of the writing.
If you're going to be throwing bear mace on a cop, can you at least respect our social norms?
No white pants after Labor Day.
I mean, if you're gonna loot a Macy's, they have pants.
They do!
You have no excuse at this point.
Every salute to pants, just don't take the white ones.
First week of protests, there were 13 people killed.
Right?
13 people killed.
Since then, they've killed more.
Over 30 people have died at the protests.
Over 1,000 law enforcement casualties, injuries, and people who get mad saying, why do you say casualties?
Casualties do include deaths and injuries.
And we've always said this.
We're like, well, the number was $700 million and it never went up.
We were talking, and I'm going, I'm pretty sure it's significantly more.
According to Axios, it's minimum $1 billion, likely $2 billion, and you know it's higher than that.
This is coming from insurance companies at this point, not a government agency who wants to say, all is well!
The insurance company's like, well, actually, no, it's not.
Because people are collecting claims and shit and we're paying it.
Our patience has sort of run out.
You know, insurance is sort of fire safety, but not literal perpetual fire safety.
Then over the weekend... I just can't wait to see a black Morgan Freeman or one of those Allstate riot commercials.
That's not Morgan Freeman, that's a black guy from 24.
Other black.
Yeah, the other black Freeman.
The lesser god.
Freeman the lesser.
Are you in good flaming hands?
I don't know what is happening.
Is your car burning and your house and your business?
BLM.
Did Antifa slip on your porch?
BLM insurance.
Because it matters.
With our good homeowner reward program, you can place this spotter in your house that lets us know if you have not responded in protecting your own property.
We suggest putting up a BLM flag as if it's the Bible.
It may pass over.
And we encourage a reaction of serious surprise when they eat their own.
And when you shoot them, somehow it's your fault.
Yes.
Well, you know, pretty much if you're just white.
Just white.
Don't plan on us getting to that claim any time soon.
Are you in good hands?
Too bad I didn't dress like I did in the 90s.
I was barely white.
Really?
Were you that guy?
Oh, I was.
Were you wearing the MC Hammer pants?
I wasn't quite that, but I definitely had the Adidas tracksuit, the Figaro chain.
I definitely enjoyed my drugs.
You were Flava Dave?
I was Flava Dave.
Oh!
I love Flava Dave.
So, only so much.
He's been roping.
I was wondering why he was speaking that way when he came in.
He turned it off.
Yeah, I would love to have a call from Franklin, Dave!
What are you doing, Dave?
You're no longer welcome here.
No, it makes sense.
Please leave.
So let's go, over the weekend there were some very specific threats.
University of Waterloo, the political science professor, Emmett McFarlane, that's not doxing because he tweeted this publicly, burned Congress down before letting Trump try to appoint a new SCOTUS.
Then we have Reza Aslan, who I believe was a CNN contributor and a personal favorite of the Young Turks for a while.
And he also ate human brains on TV, so I don't think he has that much of a problem with the raccoon deal.
He said, if they even try to replace RBG, we burn the entire effing thing down.
It's one of those deals where they say, hey, your silence is violence.
Your silence and not speaking out and holding up your fist and saying Black Lives Matter is violence.
Do you mean because you're going to punch me in the face even though I'm 65 in my own Prius?
Afterward, it's I guess technically a form of inviting violence.
These people invite violence by actually inviting violence, actually encouraging violence, and then people act out on the violence.
And I do want to note, listen, not every protester is violent.
Correct.
But come on!
Over a thousand officer casualties, over two billion dollars in damages, over 30 deaths.
At what point do you say, okay, it's not really peaceful?
And by the way, Kyle Rittenhouse, that guy, Rosenbaum, he shot?
People have been talking about it.
You know what?
That guy raped five kids!
Are you serious?
He didn't just sexually accost, he didn't just show them naughty pictures, he raped five kids!
But what did he do wrong?
But no, Stephen, you're forgetting, Kyle had a weapon.
Yes!
That is much worse.
And believe me, the irony is not lost on me.
The fact that he was blown away by a miner is delicious.
It's so good.
It's so good.
He was chasing a miner and was blown away by a miner.
It's the perfect way to go.
He died doing what he loved.
Chasing miners.
I mean, you literally could find, like, Hannah meets that other movie that Phoenix just made that's terrible.
What?
Joker?
Joaquin Phoenix?
Joaquin Phoenix.
Get your references.
Oh, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Oh, I'm Hardly Here or whatever?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which confused me because of the same title.
Was it like I Was Never Here?
Yes.
Where he played the rap thing?
Yes.
I just noticed the cleft lip.
Yeah, and also he broke his clavicle.
He has like a weird broken clavicle, like he's a walking prawn.
Yes, and he's got the beard in it.
You do wonder how much of it is good acting versus he's just a disturbing person.
He's just a weirdo?
Yeah.
I don't know.
You can fit him in the right role.
Works.
So this is where we are right now with this violence.
They have yet to condemn it entirely on the left.
Calling out Antifa and Black Lives Matter.
But I do think, listen, I've talked about you forfeit your right to live if you play the knockout game, if you break someone's car with a rock, if you aim a rifle into a car.
That's different from deserving to die crimes worthy of capital punishment.
Raping five kids, for me, you deserve to die.
Doesn't mean that Kyle Rittenhouse had the authority to execute that person.
But if we are going to act like these people and by these people, again, this Rosenbaum guy, why So let's not try and hang you on that, though he did use the N-word repeatedly.
We're going to act like not every single one of these people is a multiple serial time felon.
The kind of felonies that, not just, okay, he knocked over a liquor store.
The kind of crimes that make you sick to your stomach.
Listen, you cannot separate the two at this point when the people who you paint the murals for are all awful human beings who you, not only would you not let alone in a room with your daughter, you wouldn't let them look at your daughter.
You wouldn't let them within the vicinity of your daughter!
Yeah, but if all you watched was CNN, you would have no idea that cities are burning across America when these riots are happening, and of course there are... It's mostly peaceful.
Look, we've said this before, if you want to compare what a peaceful protest is, in a time where we thought things needed to change, You can look back to the Tea Party group, right?
They came into places, they protested, they were very vocal about what they believed, and then they left and cleaned stuff up as they left, right?
If you want to have a litmus test, a bar to hit, that's it.
Not these mostly peaceful protests.
Well, Rosenbaum only raped five kids, he was mostly not rapey for his life.
If you count all the kids that he met, he was a mostly peaceful rapist.
He was a mostly non-rapey, yeah.
Yeah, most of the time.
Joe Biden, I bet, didn't sniff every child.
No.
I bet he did.
He tried.
He really tried.
How else could he attend a Christmas pageant?
That's true.
You love them.
They'd never get through Silent Night.
Yeah.
Forget Little Drummer Boy.
He wanted to be Santa.
He'd be sniffing on beat.
Like me with my slurping.
So this violence now is because they're thinking about replacing RBG and they're saying this would set a crazy historical precedent.
This is a violation of all norms and they're trying to point to Republicans for being hypocrites right now or conservatives and I don't know what you think.
I don't buy it.
Let me make, what were you about to say?
I was going to say, how is it a Republican's fault?
She got diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2009 and just waited to die.
That's Trump.
That's Trump.
Definitely Trump.
She could have stepped aside then.
Trump left her water bottles in the car.
Is that what happened to her?
Somebody left her in the car outside of a rehab?
He lightly coated all of her mugs with BPA.
Her head just melted like a baby in the backseat.
And then he also installed a plant for her assistant and she didn't rinse her fruit.
He's very clever with that.
He plays the long ball.
So now they're saying this is historically unprecedented.
And this is actually another quote from Joe Biden, which I wouldn't say I love, but let's show it anyway.
Her granddaughter said yesterday and said publicly, RBG's granddaughter, that her dying words were, quote, my most fervent wish is that I not be replaced Until a new president is installed.
Are you speaking at a public pool?
Usually.
Not as a personal service to her, but as a service to the country, our country, at a crossroads.
Now watch this dive.
And the camera pans to the six-year-old Chinese girl.
Okay!
Hacha!
Cannonball!
By the way, I'm also pretty sure that RBG's last, at that point in the last day, the words were, This lady was serious cancer.
It was two days prior to her death, actually.
And one lady's last words are only a basis for a system of appointing new Supreme Court justices.
Think about this for a second.
Who cares?
And she knows that as well as anybody.
Are we supposed to just honor everyone's... What if Donald Trump were to die tomorrow and he just said, and my last wish is no other presidents.
Ever.
How about Mohammed's last word, kill all the Jews?
Well, you know, that's tough.
A few honored that.
One guy really tried.
I'm sure he had some pretty tasty last words, too.
We probably shouldn't be following those.
This is just such a lie that they try to make this like magical idea that she was like, I don't want to be... She didn't know anything.
She was just like, is that my mother?
She gambled incorrectly on Hillary Clinton.
That's what happened.
That's all.
She's like, shit!
I screwed up!
She's also somebody who called Colin Kaepernick, you know, disrespectful for kneeling.
And now all of a sudden you see those exact same people just going crazy online.
It's like, it's gotta suck to find out your hero died the same day you realized that was your hero.
And she also, by the way, said that she didn't want to pack the Supreme Court with more justices.
She did say that she didn't think it was necessarily super effective, the nine justices, but when you look at Joe Biden, these other people who do want to add to the Supreme Court.
Now, I know people are making the argument, and I want to really quickly clarify this, and then I'll use some historical precedent.
The difference between Barack Obama and Merrick Garland, that's what people are pointing to, right?
His last year of the presidency, he wanted to appoint a justice, and the Senate blocked it.
The difference here between the Scalia death and Merrick Garland and RBG is Barack Obama was a Democratic president and you had a Republican Senate.
So before we even get into decorum and history, listen, it's as simple as Barack Obama used his absolute authority as president to select a Supreme Court justice to nominate and then the
Senate use their absolute authority to reject it. In this case, the exact same scenario, Donald
Trump has the authority to nominate a Supreme Court justice and the Senate has the
right to confirm it. Period. That's really what it comes down to and that's why they were saying it
was historically unprecedented specifically for a divided government.
Let's be really, really clear on that.
It's not inconsistent at all with what's happening now.
And something that people need to take into consideration, that also was effectively a vote of no confidence, when they have a Democratic president and then they elect a Republican Senate.
Well, guess what?
They've not only elected a Republican president at this point, but they've added seats to the Republican Senate in 2010, 2014, But she wishes, though.
recent midterms consistently I think it was six seven and two or nine seven and
two so there hasn't been a single midterm where they haven't added Senate
seats the people have spoken Donald Trump is a president it's a Republican
Senate they have the right to nominate a Supreme Court justice and that's what
they should do now this does go wishes though she has wishes did
Final thought.
She coughed!
Guys, she's right here.
We're talking about her in front of her.
You know, listen, she's being a good sport and we turned off her microphone.
She's having fun.
Look at her.
Also her ventilator.
Ouch.
She's not wearing a mask.
She's as good as dead.
You know what, listen, at this point, COVID is a sweet release.
So there's been a Supreme Court, there's been a SCOTUS vacancy, I want to be clear, in an election year 29 times.
The president made a nomination in all 29 cases.
That's a precedent?
Ten nominations were the scenario that we are currently facing now, right?
With the same party controlling the Senate, nine out of those ten were successful Supreme Court nominees.
That these happened within an election year, President, Senate, same party, nine out of the ten.
We're seated.
What's the term?
Should I say seated?
Appointed?
Appointed.
Take a seat over there!
Appointed and confirmed.
So here's the thing, and this is the point you're getting to, which is what are the powers and what does the Constitution and the applicable laws say?
And they say, if you get through the appointment process and you get through the confirmation process, you're in.
I agree that there were some stupid comments made back in 2016 by some Republicans that are now coming back to haunt them, literally by word, but literally the system itself is still there.
The nomination can occur, and on top of that the confirmation can occur.
We have the ability to do it.
It's not unprecedented to be able to do it.
But what is unprecedented is how the leading two candidates, both of whom are women, are being excoriated by the left about all of their policies.
Get this, one of them is a Latina woman out of Florida, so apparently now it's just like, oh I can't believe you would nominate the second Latina woman because she's conservative right of course and then the other one oh we really don't like her because she's a woman and you know what she's too Catholic way to win the Latino vote Dems.
There's some Latino lady letting a candle burn.
Yeah, that's what you want to lose.
Every single person who has a half, what, bathtub with Mary on it on their front bed.
Oh, the one out of Florida, right?
So her family escaped from, I don't know, Cuba?
Right.
So, you know, that's what we definitely don't want.
We don't want anyone on the Supreme Court whose family knows the danger of communism.
Who wants someone who's actually experienced the dangers of socialism as opposed to Barack Obama taking a photo op in front of Che, who also was gay.
What were we about to say there, Dave?
I was just saying how much I enjoyed Shea's gayness.
That's why he executed too many of them.
This election year argument, would you boil down the presidency to essentially two years?
Rager Against the Machine left that out of their t-shirt.
It's his face like this, zoom out, and it's just a butt.
I mean, you're going to vote on the Senate every two years, right?
You have midterm elections, right?
You're going to have people being voted on in the Senate, and you have a presidential election every four years, right?
So really, we don't get to govern at all.
The presidency really is, well, you get your first hundred days, and then after that, we don't want to hear from you again, and then you get your next hundred days after that Senate stuff has happened, and then we don't want to hear from you again.
Because presidents are voted in for three and a half years, I think, and not actually four, you know?
Sorry, I really guessed it.
Bitches need to watch some Schoolhouse Rock, and I don't mean conjunction, because you already know their function, but there's a bill sitting on the Capitol steps who would like to speak with you.
Let me be clear about what Lindsey Graham said, because I understand there were some Republicans who followed suit and didn't actually take the context, the full context of what Lindsey Graham said.
Because now they're trying to use his words against him.
And let me be clear, it would be like me when I've talked about it on this show.
Listen, YouTube can do whatever they want.
It's not censorship because it's not the government.
But what is corporate censorship is when a company says or claims that they have certain
rules and they apply them selectively and with different standards.
I've made that clear.
You can probably find an interview down the line where I would say, well, listen, people are tired of the censorship occurring on social media because not every single time do I have the seconds available to go through the pieces.
And that's what happened with Lindsey Graham.
Let me be really clear.
In his argument that he made, he said, well, Merrick Garland was a different situation.
You had the president of one party nominating and you had the Senate in the hands of the other party, a situation where you've got them both Would.
Be.
Different.
And by the way, you know who else made the argument that you should appoint Supreme Court Justices in the last year?
Joseph Biden!
Back in 1992, before the cerebral plaque set in.
The gray matter.
I don't know if plaque is gray matter, white matter, how it shows up on your brain.
I'm not sure.
I have no idea.
If it's white, let's go.
Brain scan, I can see your plaque!
I have no plaque!
That's the kind of thing, if you just wanted to get Joe Biden to just like, you say, I can see your brain plaque.
No!
You cannot!
I don't know, prove it!
I'll prove it!
Push-ups!
He would do like one-arm push-ups with the left side of his face going like this.
Yeah, if he had more strength, he'd just be Jack Palance right now.
I guarantee it.
That's all he does is get violent.
He just, like, shoves people.
Or he'd be, like, attempting to be a Jack LaLanne, but not successful.
He would just be, instead of his dog Sprite, he'd just be kicking his dog across the room.
Get out of here!
Give me my juicer!
He's just drowning with a rope attached to a piano.
That's the English Channel?
You see, just swimming, and just gradually getting lower.
Like a water moccasin, just a head.
Anyone who is not familiar with Jack LaLanne's feats of strength, shame on you, that was funny.
He made the case in 1992.
He even made the case for the precedent being predicated on this idea of a divided government.
Go and read his statement.
You have the link right there in the overlay.
Read his entire statement in context.
It could read like Lindsey Graham's argument, or Donald Trump's argument, or our argument today.
And keep in mind, it is also tough, though.
He did make this argument before.
I don't want our argument to rest on that And perhaps, most cruelly of all, if Donald Trump has his way, the complications from COVID-19, which are well beyond what they should be, it's estimated that 200 million people have died probably by the time I finish this talk.
200 million people who died?
But if that's only seven million cases, it'd be 2,800% death rate.
He's retarded, right?
I think that's the takeaway.
Is that approximate?
Do I need Christopher Plummer to show up in my imagination?
Yeah, exactly.
That echo is just walking out like, who's ready to rock?
And it's just one guy.
I really wanna, can you set my mic to sad Peter Frampton guitar?
You know where most people leave halfway into the show?
It was a full rally at the beginning.
I wanna have a room going, let's beat traffic.
It gets tighter and tighter and tighter as the crowd leaves.
That is the Biden rally.
It's like finding out who the winner is at medieval times.
I don't care if it's red or blue.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't affect my life.
I'm out.
Let's go.
Before the lot is filled with angered two-year-olds and sippy cups.
The chicken sucked again.
Every time.
Okay, so here's another argument they use.
Well, it isn't legally a precedent to have hate endorsements.
They say, well, what about decorum?
Okay.
Let me be really clear about this because I do believe that conservatives need to be consistent.
I've tried to talk about this in the past.
However, let's talk about sort of the decorum precedent that's been set.
When you knowingly slander a man to be a gang rapist, as you did with Kavanaugh in front of his wife, in front of his family, in front of the entire world, knowing verifiably that it's false, or at the very least completely baseless, guess what?
You rewrote the rule book!
We don't owe you anything!
You're going to say it's unprecedented when 29 times in American history a situation like this has happened, 10 times a situation like this has happened exactly, with 9 of these justices actually being confirmed when you had the same presidential party and senate, and you want to tell us it's a violation of decorum.
We just don't do this.
We're going to, we're going to, what Chuck Schumer said, nothing is off the table.
We're going to go nuclear.
Well, really, hold on a second.
Again, with the threats.
It's like the threats when they say, if RBG's seat is replaced, we're going to violently protest.
Well, you've already committed $2 billion in damage and took over eight city blocks in a city that nobody likes, asshole.
What else you got?
At this point, they go, oh, we're going to go to a nuclear option.
Oh, really?
A nuclear option?
You labeled this guy a gang rapist.
You made it sound like he was trying to run a train on a woman like the Baseball Furies, for crying out loud.
What else is there?
What other nuclear options?
So you threw out the rulebook.
We are beholden to nothing.
Nothing at this point.
Fill the seat.
Sorry, RBG.
I wish that I'd been softer.
Well, and the Chuck Todd's of the world were carrying their water this weekend, just going ballistic on Republicans saying that they can't believe they would do something like this.
I'd love for you to rewind a little bit to 2016 when the Merrick Garland situation happened.
Were they up in arms then?
I mean, I don't remember seeing CNN and MSNBC and everybody else saying, no, no, no, you should not be, a new president's coming in one way or the other because you're going out.
You should definitely wait.
And using Joe Biden's words against him, that nobody did that.
Nobody brought that up.
And by the way, it's just, it's, it's, it's this simple.
Barack Obama nominated, he, he nominated, what were the terms?
What are the order?
Nominate, confirmation.
Yeah.
Nominate.
Nominate, confirm, confirm, then appoint.
Yeah.
Nominate, confirm, appoint.
Barack Obama did use his authority.
He did.
Nominate a Supreme Court justice.
And the Senate said, That's our system of checks and balances!
You know how I wanted you to confirm my nominee?
We're not going to do that.
They did have the votes.
And that's what's crazy is that they're relying on the decorum.
Back then they were like, well, normally these guys would just sail through.
Well, we're not letting them sail through this time.
None of the arguments are about the actual power.
Right, right.
Not a single one of the arguments are actually, wait a minute, we have the law on our side, the law says XYZ.
Instead, they're just having to say, we really don't like the way that this would look, we're really serious about it.
I mean, they do it very openly, but I can't even muster the Look, I agree with that and I understand that, but at the same time, you do what's right even when it's inconvenient, right?
And that's what I would go back to.
And you even said that, like, you want to make sure that you're consistent.
Consistency right now would be telling every Democrat who has a problem with this to look back at 2016 and look back at Joe Biden.
Exactly.
Look back at what Joe Biden said.
Nothing is happening out of the ordinary.
Nothing is happening out of the ordinary.
The president is going to nominate a Supreme Court justice.
The Senate is likely going to confirm it.
And you can go fornicate yourself with a wire brush.
Yeah.
And here's a reason they say, let the people speak.
And that was what they said in 2016.
When you have a Senate divided, the judiciary rests with the White House and the Senate.
And when people put people...
No, I didn't say that.
When the people vote for the same party, they're saying, I like your judicial philosophy.
Go for it.
Do what you need to do.
That's exactly what happened here.
When they vote somebody else in, basically what the people are saying is, we don't like your judicial philosophy.
Don't go ahead.
The people have already spoken.
Yeah, that doesn't need to happen again.
They've spoken again in every single midterm, too, adding more Republicans to the Senate.
By the way, hit the notification bell if you are watching this, because subscriptions don't mean a whole lot on YouTube.
We do this show every morning, Monday through Thursday at 10 a.m., and do consider joining Mud Club.
We have a major announcement, by the way, regarding Michigan, the state capitol in Lansing, on October 2nd.
A big show, the biggest thing we've ever done on that Friday.
It's huge.
So find your way on down to, that's Lansing, state capitol, in Whitmer's backyard, where she takes poops.
I didn't know that.
That's news to me.
That is news.
Here's the final argument.
Now they go to norms and institutions.
They go to decorum.
It's just kind of different.
It's kind of all the same because they don't really have a legacy in it.
But norms and institutions.
The point that they're making right now is that, well it's tradition.
Hold on, Tradition, we've already kind of dispelled that, but we talk about norms and institutions.
Keep in mind, this is the party that wants to do away with the Electoral College.
This is the party that just wants to add seats.
And by the way, do they want the filibuster?
Do they want to ban the filibuster?
It depends who's president at that point.
Year to year.
We want the filibuster.
All right, listen.
It's like asking a guy to go in the back and pick something for you.
Oh, this is just a display model of this LG?
Do you have any more?
Let me go check in the back.
And he brings it out and you go, actually, now I want a Panasonic.
All right, he goes back.
He comes back.
You're like, actually, now I want a Westinghouse because I lost my job.
And I hear those are more affordable.
It's effectively an off-brand.
We don't sell Westinghouse at Best Buy, sir.
That's Walmart.
Well, you know what?
I guess I'm going to take my cash elsewhere.
That's what they're doing with the filibuster.
They want to talk norms and institutions.
They don't want us to continue with the Electoral College.
Let's be clear about that.
They don't want us to accept the results of the elections.
They don't want us to actually conduct elections the way that we've always conducted them.
Ever.
Yeah.
Elections.
And they want to pack the Supreme Court.
Keep in mind, they're complaining about something that is entirely within not only constitutional parameters, but historically there's been a standard set.
They have been clear that if Biden is elected, they want to change all of it and pack the courts.
Here you go.
If, in fact, they are successful in placing a justice on the court, I think that what Democrats have to do, assuming that Biden is president and there is a Senate majority for the Democrats, we need to think about court reform.
And at a minimum, as part of that reform package, I think additional justices need to be placed on the Supreme Court.
I don't care, photo-negative Ned Flanders!
That's court reform.
So basically you don't like the opinion.
Doesn't reform usually mean like bringing it back to its original purpose or intent?
But there's that pesky constitution they don't like either.
They want to rewrite that as well.
Ever since it raped Jimmy Carter.
Pretty much.
That's a sad day.
For him.
For the old sweater-wearing peanut farmer.
Everyone else, it's just another day.
So let's be really clear.
That's what they want to do.
They're clear about it.
They've said don't accept the results of the election.
Big media.
This is also important.
When I say big media, big tech, we talk about this.
Really they're one and the same with the leftist government right now because they follow lockstep with the same policies.
When you have effectively Hillary Clinton coming out saying under no circumstances should Joe Biden concede.
And then you have Jack Dorsey and you have people on Twitter.
I don't know if Zuckerberg joined in or who did at Alphabet, but I know Jack Dorsey did in no uncertain terms.
When they join in with Hillary Clinton echoing her sentiment saying, we will remove any misinformation that claims on election day that Donald Trump has won.
Listen, the two are inextricably tied.
The current DNC and Big Tech, they're working together also because they understand that the DNC will offer protections to them with a double standard that they would not offer to other companies.
Again, that's all I want.
I don't want them to necessarily be declared a public platform.
I want social media companies to have to determine and answer, are you a public platform?
Are you a public square?
Are you a publisher?
Because two very different rule sets.
One, Jiminy Cricket can go screw himself.
now to be afforded these legal loopholes, these legal protections, while you still selectively
implement the law.
The other, okay, well then you're just like the New York Times and you can censor your
comment pages all you want, but you need to decide.
So I want to be clear about that.
And finally, the last thing, the argument is the dying wish.
Well, okay, you know what?
Jiminy Cricket can go screw himself.
I don't give a rat's ass.
I don't give a rat's ass if there was a shooting star, if it was a solar eclipse.
They're saying, oh, her dying wish, which no one can verify, by the way.
It's like a TMZ story.
Well, she's 87.
It's not like she was saying it to John Cena.
You don't just get a dying wish.
Well, she did say to John Cena, and then she was reiterating it to her granddaughter, and she said, I told John Cena, but he just kept doing this.
What is this?
I was very confused.
He said they brought back the ice cream sandwiches, which is all I can digest.
And gin and soup.
You know when your strongest argument is dying wish?
You're screwed.
Well, look, let's take a quote from her when she wasn't dying.
She said, when asked if the Senate should consider justice in election year, this was RBG's response, she said, that's their job.
There's nothing in the Constitution that says the president stops being the president in his last year.
So a change, you know, John Cena confused her.
He did.
Let's let bygones be bygones, okay?
We can't hold her at her word, but we certainly shouldn't hold her granddaughter at her word.
Was it daughter or granddaughter?
I think it was granddaughter.
Because her daughter probably wouldn't remember The Dying Wish.
Her daughter was probably there.
Some kind of maybe son was like, I heard The Dying Wish.
I said, what was it?
He's like, I don't remember because I'm also 85.
You know what's one thing that's a very telling admission of that is that if there was a time That you were going to use a dying wish to say something, you would use it to say, oh, the law says you can't do X, Y, Z. And for all of her faults or the opinions that I disagreed with that she authored, she was a very brilliant legal scholar.
And a very brilliant legal scholar and her dying wish was not, the law says you can't do it.
It was, I prefer that it not be that way.
And that is an honest admission, unlike what we're hearing from the Dems, which is, oh, there's legal hurdles.
Oh, there's a blah, blah, blah.
No, no.
She may not like it, but the wish ends the rules.
Kind of like when you often say, ah, I wish I could kick Gerald in the nuts right now.
Well, he does that most of the time.
But you don't do it while the cameras are rolling.
No, no, look, I wouldn't want to disrupt the flow of the show.
I can find him in the parking lot after.
It's fine.
Ouch, jeez.
When you wish upon a star.
Bam.
My balls.
That hurts.
That's RBG's wish.
That's about what I think of it.
Okay, we are going to go to people who are not Mug Club members.
We're going to play Bad Movie Line, and we have a major announcement to make here exclusively for Mug Club members.
