	Do something when I'm in the mood to die. I'll spend the day getting out your fog. When you ask me to do something
	when I'm in the mood to die. I'll spend the day getting out your fog.
	Ch-ch-and say to me, have a wonderful time in my beautiful salon. Father and son to say, mmm-mmm.
	Never done it, I've never done it.
	Don't forget to subscribe to my channel.
	After the battle of 2020, Crowder readies before the legions of Big Tech Apply.
	Our Mug Club warriors are outnumbered and exhausted, but it is not fear that grips them, only a heightened sense of things.
	Cool air in their lungs, the wind sweeping the plugs which stand atop the head of the professed victor.
	The former Vice President and would-be God King sits atop his throne as he speaks to an undefeated foe.
	Crowder, despite your insufferable arrogance, the God King has come to admire your fighting spirit and your... mugs.
	You could make a mighty ally, man, even in light of your continued insults, your horrid hate speech blasphemies.
	The Lord of Hosts is prepared to forgive all and more to reward your service.
	You fight for your channel, man.
	Keep it.
	You fight for your whole thing.
	Keep them too.
	Your victory will be complete if you but lay down your arms and kneel before your holy former vice president.
	The end is near.
	And attack!
	Oh no...
	I'm not alone...
	I'm alone...
	the the
	the Just read the book.
	We're better offSilent, alright?
	THIS IS MADCLOUD!
	I'm a stranger in love, that's what I know.
	I'm a stranger in love, I got the ball.
	I'm a speedy pistol.
	Mmmmm. That's a good slurp.
	Because we don't have the pajamas anymore because we were doing late night and then kind of morning and then people voted said do you want to dance back in or do you want to slurp in and it's tough to do both.
	Well you tried.
	Yeah.
	That's important.
	It's a choking hazard.
	Especially with my bad heart.
	It's been a rough break.
	It's been a rough break.
	We have a lot to get to today.
	Tomorrow we have Mike Rowe on the show.
	I'm very excited.
	By the way, I fight for you, Miss Geraldine.
	Quarter Black is in the studio for Quarter Black History Month.
	How are you?
	What's going on?
	Good.
	Tim from HR is there.
	We have Tokunawa.
	We have Gerald.
	How was your break?
	It was great.
	Fantastic.
	And we have Dave Landau here.
	How are you, sir?
	Good.
	How about you?
	I am doing well.
	Where can people best find you?
	We're going to be seeing maybe a little bit more of you.
	Yeah, I will be.
	Also, I've got dates in Omaha, Nebraska.
	Well, that's no fun.
	You want to brag?
	Yeah, Raleigh, North Carolina, that's a good one.
	Right off the bat.
	It's tough because there's so much to address.
	Do we address what's happening this morning, which is really the bill?
	Do we address what's happened since we've been gone?
	But the first thing I'm most excited about we will have going forward is this Biden-centric ticker.
	Yeah.
	So I noticed that CNN doesn't always have it going on.
	They kind of, okay, sometimes they have the deaths, but they're not really telling you about how there have been more COVID deaths this January than I believe any month.
	Oh, hey, by the way, I don't know if I can hit the, to the control room.
	Everyone who works for me, just so this is on the record, I will pay for a vaccine for anyone in the office who wants one.
	I don't want one.
	Okay.
	Oh.
	Follow me on Instagram, by the way, as we move on.
	That's where you can follow me, watch my heart stuff at the Mayo Clinic.
	And the best thing you can do as we move forward, because YouTube has changed their algorithms, is just comment, comment, comment.
	Leave a comment right now.
	Anything you want to comment, peanut butter balls on bread.
	It's fun.
	Favorite color.
	Give us whatever you got.
	And of course, Mug Club Crowder returns $30 off if you go to lateralcrowder.com slash mugclubmyhat.
	We'll be here later.
	We'll be talking about a lawsuit that we are filing.
	There's been a lot that has been going on.
	And I want to know what you guys want us to cover most in the days coming forward, because right now it's like drinking from a fire hose.
	Yeah, exactly.
	But I think there's... Who do you think is running the show right now?
	Obviously, a lot of people will tell you it's former Vice President Joe Biden.
	And you know his executive orders.
	But I want to know who you think is running things.
	And this is something that I want to be really clear about.
	There is a real value.
	There is a real silver lining here.
	You have to be careful with the rhetoric.
	When I say battle lines, I mean figuratively.
	But I mean the battle lines not just with Democrats and the far left.
	I mean Republicans, too.
	So many of them are dead to me.
	Figuratively.
	Figuratively, of course.
	Useless!
	Useless!
	Namby pamby lily wastes!
	Yes, from a movie.
	When I was watching this going, everyone thinks there's so much that happened.
	Look, we were here all the way up through election.
	We were here all the way through the election irregularities.
	We were reading some of our information from this show being included in the amicus briefs.
	Outside of a couple of issues, it was just a repeat.
	And you guys get too close to the forest to see the trees and you think that something new is happening.
	A lot of folks here, you've been played.
	A lot of folks have been played by both people on the right and on the left, but I think there's a silver lining right now that it couldn't be more clear as far as the battle lines of you, the American citizen, a sovereign American citizen, and your freedom.
	Look, Wall Street backed Biden.
	Wall Street backed lockdowns.
	Tech backed Biden.
	Big tech backed lockdowns.
	Lockdowns hurt Main Street.
	When Main Street decided to fight back, guess what?
	Biden brings in the people who backed him.
	Oh, you want to speak freely on social media?
	They'll box you out.
	You want to invest your own money as opposed to somebody else's?
	They'll box you out.
	It is big tech, Wall Street, this administration versus you and your freedoms.
	And we're going to go through that, both the backers, the policies, and the new cabinet picks.
	I'm just concerned how many people named Chad can't pay their Coke dealers.
	This is true.
	That's a problem.
	It's a big deal.
	Also, their Coke dealers also names Chad.
	Well, no, their Chad.
	Yeah, but the Coke dealers as well.
	Yeah, that's true.
	There's a lot of Chads.
	Lots of Chads.
	Kyle's.
	This is one of those situations.
	Elizabeth Warren.
	It's the true pandemic.
	Elizabeth Warren.
	You see Elizabeth Warren?
	She's talking about the GameStop thing.
	She was championing the little guy against it.
	Now she's like, we need to run an investigation.
	Oh, you mean you need to run an investigation on the hedge funds?
	No, for the hedge funds!
	The crazy bitch!
	Wait a second.
	So listen, the curtain's been pulled back.
	It really has.
	Elizabeth Warren wanted you to think that she was a democratic socialist and now she wants to protect the only hedge funders.
	Poor billionaires.
	Indian giver.
	Oh, what?
	No, here we go.
	Come on.
	What did I say?
	We prefer red skin, uh, former logo.
	You can't say that.
	It's the person who gives something We're done!
	We're done!
	We're back and we're already gone.
	But there's been a lot that's happened and we don't want to have to spend too much time on it. So
	right now we'll just wrap everything up in exactly what I missed over the last month.
	Okay, so a fresh perspective here. As someone who had to leave because by the way, wife gonna have
	twins. Yeah.
	That's not scary at all with a heart, it doesn't work.
	We'll make it work, don't worry.
	I will say that in just kind of drinking from this fire hose right now, there's, I mean, one thing that stands out for sure is that, you know, President Trump has obviously been surprisingly quiet on Twitter.
	Yeah, he's been banned by Twitter.
	Yeah.
	He's also not the president.
	Oh.
	You mean he didn't win, President Trump?
	No, no, it's a joke.
	What happened with all the lawsuits?
	No, none of the evidence was actually admitted.
	Maybe we should move on to the next thing.
	No, what, when they admitted the evidence?
	No, no, it actually didn't get admitted.
	So, so yeah, it never was heard.
	All the suits were thrown out before any of the evidence could be filed.
	What about the Kraken?
	Was it Kraken?
	No, no Kraken.
	No Kraken.
	Okay.
	Hey, wait, what was that?
	What's that?
	That's the, that's the wall they built around the, uh, The Capitol?
	They built a wall around the people's house?
	Yeah, it was after the insurrection.
	What happened?
	They stormed the Capitol.
	Somebody called it an erection.
	They stormed the Capitol?
	Yeah, they did.
	Yeah.
	Why did they storm the Capitol, Gerald?
	I mean, they were mad about the courts blocking the evidence before any of it could be submitted.
	I mean, that seems reasonable.
	And President Trump is banned from Twitter.
	Yes, he's banned from Twitter for basically he's being impeached as well for inciting them.
	But you just said he's not president.
	Yeah, he's not president.
	They're impeaching a non-president, the former president?
	Yes.
	For inciting violence?
	Yeah.
	Did he?
	Did he incite violence?
	No, he said to peacefully protest there.
	In peace.
	Okay, well, you know, silver lining, at least they're cracking down on riots and everything, Black Lives Matter right now, billions of dollars in damages, at least now there's an equal playing field.
	Black Lives Matter was actually nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize.
	Black Lives Matter was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize?
	Yeah.
	Did they not see the insurance claims of two billion dollars and hundreds of dicks?
	I don't think so.
	I don't think they saw that.
	It was mostly peaceful though.
	I don't know if that's gonna be part of the prize.
	I'm gonna have to change the map.
	So let me just...
	🎵 I wanna make sure I have this right.
	They've labeled people who question election results, domestic terrorists, they put a wall around the Capitol, nominated Black Lives Matter for a Nobel Peace Prize, are impeaching former President Trump even though he's not president anymore, and he's banned from social media forever.
	I mean that's about the gist.
	Did they ban Maduro?
	President of Iran?
	No.
	He still hates the Jews too.
	I come to you with tidings of great shit!
	Okay.
	Oh, Kanye's banging Jeffree Star.
	What?
	Just tossing it out there.
	Okay, well, there's a blast of cold water.
	Now, this is happening, and CNN is still talking about the vaccine rollout, so that's always fun right now.
	I thought, what if it happened to Cuomo saying that he wasn't going to take the vaccine?
	Don't you remember that?
	I miss that, the days of that president, where he was like, I wouldn't trust this vaccine.
	Fine, you don't get me.
	No, no, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, like Paul Schneider.
	In Home Alone 2.
	I just think it's sad they killed Hank Aaron.
	Right before Black History Month.
	Wait a minute, who is they?
	Well, whoever administered it.
	Let's be careful.
	They is a very, very broad term.
	I can't say that anymore, you're right.
	Also, we can't say broad.
	The nurse who looked like him.
	Also, we can't say term.
	So let's get to this.
	This is something that's very clear, I think, to a lot of people, but a lot of people haven't necessarily been able to put it into words.
	Look, I have never been someone who just hates Wall Street for no reason.
	Occupy Wall Street was silly because they weren't paying attention back when the Tea Party was protesting higher taxes.
	Look, if you think right now when you look at individual investors being locked out.
	First off, not only individual investors being locked out of Wall Street, but individuals being locked out of public platforms.
	To speak freely, just because they have the wrong opinions.
	If you see all of these things happening, and businesses being locked down, which have irreparably damaged the economy, and you think it's going to be fixed by a $600 or $1400 stimulus check, or raising taxes on mid-sized businesses, you're not paying attention.
	When people say the game is rigged, when I say the game is rigged, I don't mean that we need to raise taxes on small business owners and we need to go down with torches and pitchforks and bitch about millionaires.
	I want people to be millionaires if they do it honestly.
	We don't need higher taxes on businesses.
	We certainly don't need higher taxes on middle-income families.
	We just need the wealthiest of the wealthy, the elites, the John Kerrys who marry into ketchup fortunes, the Elizabeth Warrens.
	We just need them to play by the same rules as the rest of us.
	You roll the dice, you lose your money, just like someone on Main Street.
	They roll the dice, they lose their money.
	So I would hate to see what is rightfully, I mean it's well placed, populism, in revolting, in trying to actually change or at least level the playing field from the elites to average Americans, which by the way include upper middle class and business owners, to let's just take more money from the wealthy.
	It's not about the wealthy.
	It is about a swamp.
	By the way, Barack Obama had years to fertilize it, and now they get at least another four or two until Harris.
	Let's hope nobody's scared.
	I wanted to start it off on a positive note.
	Hopeful!
	Lots of insure.
	So let's go through the backers.
	A light walk.
	Light walk every day.
	His watch tells him you can survive another day if you walk.
	And his earpiece tells him everything else.
	Salute the Marines!
	Yeah, salute the Marines.
	You!
	Don't kiss your sister.
	No, stop saying what I say, just do it!
	We do it!
	What are you doing there, Corny Black Garrett?
	This is a disaster.
	Alright, so let's go through really quickly before, but let me make this case to you as to why this administration is, and the previous administration, listen, they had four years, they didn't do anything with the biggest issue of our time with Big Tech, okay?
	That was a big screw up.
	And we're going to get to Republicans who are dead to me in a little bit.
	And we're going to get to what we will be doing here that's within our control as it relates to Big Tech in a little bit in an incoming lawsuit, which we've had to prepare for quite a bit.
	We don't want to have typos in the first paragraph!
	The little things, really.
	It's just the little things.
	So the backers, when you look at how this man received more votes than any former vice president in the history of the United States, and you're like, but nobody likes him!
	Nobody likes you, Booster!
	This is what has happened.
	Joe Biden has received more votes, this is what they said, than any president in history, and you don't know anyone who really likes this guy.
	Including when he's in office.
	Outside of people in the media, everyone who's voted for him just goes like, eh, okay.
	We'll give him a shot.
	Little milquetoast guy.
	Sweet tofs don't like him.
	That's because they're dog-faced pony souls.
	He can do some push-ups.
	I don't think he can.
	I can do a dead hang.
	I can lay here.
	Bring a lock of a six-year-old girl's hair like ammonia-smelling salt.
	Does my tub have a door on it?
	I'm at the Grand Canyon.
	A chair that goes up the stairs for me.
	So many renovations to the White House right now.
	He's wondering why his Fitbit doesn't work.
	He's like, no, that's just a life alert.
	Oh!
	I was wondering about my pulse.
	You just keep calling the cops!
	It actually just shocks them to keep them alive.
	So Wall Street backed.
	This is how Joe Biden, former Vice President Joe Biden, was whisked into office without actually campaigning.
	That's a first.
	He was backed by Wall Street donors.
	When people say, Donald Trump, big money, this is where you have to understand.
	People can have money and not be a part of the economic establishment, for lack of a better word.
	$76 million to $18 million.
	Wow.
	Refer Joe Biden to Donald Trump.
	17 million to 18 million.
	95% of all donations from big tech went to Joe Biden.
	went to Biden and went to Democrats.
	OK?
	Wow.
	Not to, and this is, by the way, this is not even to mention,
	this is just the monetary compensation that we can see.
	I don't know what happened with the folks who were against Citizens United when you didn't want kids to be able to do
	an anti-Hillary Clinton documentary.
	But then when it comes to big money into Biden's campaign, more than ever, the most Wall Street-backed candidate
	outside of Hillary Clinton in the history of mankind, all of a sudden you're a little bit murky on the rule books.
	Not to mention, I don't know how you put a monetary value, of course, on the media coverage and how lopsided it is.
	We tend to correct in our elections for the deficiencies of the person in that office.
	And in this case, those deficiencies went to character, went to decency, went to a lack of empathy.
	These are qualities, as Gloria said, that Joe Biden has in abundance.
	That is the President of the United States.
	That is the most powerful person in the world, and we see him Like an obese turtle on his back flailing in the hot sun.
	On Wednesday morning, in the hours before he was sworn in as the 46th President of the United States, Joe Biden attended mass at the Cathedral of St.
	Matthew the Apostle, a prominent Catholic church not far from the White House.
	For the last several years, Donald Trump has been viewed as an object of suspicion by some people of faith.
	They're not video images of him doing things that look like a guy who is religious.
	We have reporting that inside the White House that there were sort of self-congratulatory... Look, look, look, you get the point.
	I just want to make sure that you hear it straight from the horse's ass and I don't strawman them.
	We all know that the media has been fawning over Biden.
	They're the only people who fawn over Biden.
	I don't even think his wife fawns over Biden, okay?
	I don't think anybody outside of the media and big tech and Wall Street actually like...
	Former Vice President Joseph Biden.
	They've been throwing him some hardball questions.
	Yeah.
	What's your favorite ice cream?
	Yeah.
	They also didn't cover that he was denied communion for his stance on abortion, so... Right, that's true.
	Sorry.
	And his favorite ice cream, the answer?
	Little Orphan Annie.
	Little Orphan Annie is his favorite ice cream flavor.
	Only if it's the smell good one.
	Let Neapolitan just scoop right off the top!
	Are there free smells here like Jimmy John's?
	Wait, are you looking to smell a young boy named Jimmy?
	And John!
	Both of them!
	I thought there were two!
	It's a children's hospital, free smells!
	It's a twofer!
	Okay, now let's look at the policy.
	So you know who's backed him financially, and this is something you can follow.
	All of these sources are available at lateralwithgreider.com.
	Right away, I don't think there's ever been a president who has killed more jobs in their first day or 48 hours.
	It's like the first 48, only they never find the victim.
	That's a downer.
	He halted the Keystone Pipeline right away.
	And it shouldn't come as a surprise.
	Some people were surprised.
	They were like, oh, I can't believe he did this.
	Well, he said he would do it.
	And I understand where the confusion comes from, because as you saw in the debates that we covered, then he said that he wouldn't.
	And Kamala said that they wouldn't.
	But then they said that they would.
	Then they said that they wouldn't.
	And then AOC started drinking a bucket of salt water and throwing a fit.
	So to avoid a seizure, they decided that, OK, they would, because they have to appease that wing of their party.
	But it shouldn't surprise you if you've been paying attention, because this is what Joseph Biden, former vice president, had to say about the Keystone Pipeline.
	Anybody who can go down 300 to 3,000 feet in a mine sure in hell can learn how to program as well.
	Give me a break!
	Anybody who can throw coal into a furnace can learn how to program for God's sake.
	You first!
	Grab a shovel.
	Learn to code is your answer to all these?
	Anybody can throw coal into a furnace. I'm not sure about that.
	I've seen you walk up at your rallies and just point to like, what's that?
	Have you seen it?
	When you see Biden, it's even worse without his voice.
	It looks like Brooks from Shawshank where he doesn't know how to make it on the outside world.
	Walking off stage confused.
	What's this?
	I want to shoot the manager, you know, kind of a bonus.
	So what was the fallout from that?
	Keystone halting it.
	Killed an estimated 11,000 construction jobs.
	Brought on 11,000 new podcasts.
	Whole new market.
	And 2.2 billion dollars in wages lost.
	2.2 billion dollars in wages lost.
	It's almost like that would be significant, as opposed to just giving people a few hundred dollars here and there, talking about universal income, yang chang gang, yang chang tang tonight, you could actually just allow people to work!
	Free market.
	Now, here's the thing, of course people were upset.
	I love Canada, by the way.
	Canada, my home country of Canada.
	They're like, oh, we really want to get back to normalcy and have, you know, Joseph Biden, and we've been very disappointed.
	I'm like, I'm halting the Keystone Pipeline!
	Like, oh, wait a second!
	Which is funny, because Canada is such a stupid place.
	I remember when I was a kid, and I was at high school, and then I was in college, they had Canvassers going around because the Keystone Pipeline goes through the, is it the Tar Sands or the Tar Pits?
	Tar Sands.
	It's a very unappealing name.
	Is it the Tar Sands?
	Sandy Tars.
	But they were asking me to sign a petition in Canada.
	Really?
	To save the Tar Sands.
	And I said, what, what, what?
	Like, yeah, they're going to start building and then they're going to start refining oil and taking oil from the Tar Sands and we need to save the Tar Sands.
	I said, are you, hold on a second, are you asking, like, I understand saving the rainforest.
	Say, watch Ferngully, I get it.
	Are you asking me to now care about pits of tar?
	How far down the rungs do we get to the point where I don't care if you can't actually extract tar from something that is merely a pit of it?
	What's its purpose in life?
	I am holding back so many Peace Prize jokes.
	Really, look, this is the silver lining for me.
	That something that pisses off Canada this bad is just like, oh, that's just good comedy.
	The responses now to the before and afters are just hilarious.
	I just see the South Park characters.
	Exactly.
	I just see Trudeau making his way to his crawl space and using a little shoe polish.
	Aww.
	He really is the king of blackface.
	It's his raison d'être.
	I aspire, you know.
	Like he's a connoisseur of blackface.
	So, this is what happened.
	2.2 billion dollars in wages lost.
	Again, the candidate who supported this, former Vice President Joe Biden, he's now taken away your jobs, he's boxed you out from investing, he's boxed you out from speaking, or at least they want to on social media platforms, and then of course people who were working people Commonly referred to as not my voting constituency by Joe Biden.
	They said look look look look can we keep our jobs because that's kind of important right now and we're one of the few remaining sectors that is actually working we'd like to be employed and it's kind of a shitty thing for you to do and not to be outdone in tone-deafedness this is how the administration and good old he's back John Kerry responded to workers wanting to be able to provide for their families.
	No, you look at the consequences of black lung for a minor, for instance, and measure that against the fastest growing job in the United States before COVID was solar power technician.
	The same people can do those jobs, but the choice of doing the solar power one now is a better choice.
	Similarly, you have the second fastest growing job pre-COVID was wind turbine technician.
	That's not true.
	Mr. Buttigieg, what do you say to those workers whose jobs have just been eliminated by presidential edict?
	I think the most important thing is to make sure that we make good on the promise of the President's climate vision as being one that, on net, creates far more jobs.
	Millions, we hope.
	I know that won't just happen.
	We'll have to do a lot of work to make sure that's real.
	But getting this right means ensuring that there are more good-paying jobs.
	Shouldn't the work to make sure it's real already be done?
	It should happen first, maybe?
	So for those workers, the answer is somebody else will get a job.
	The answer is that we are very eager to see those workers continue to be employed in good paying union jobs.
	And you know, it's a roll of the dice!
	As the President has said, as President Biden has said many times, that COVID actually offers us the opportunity to build back better.
	There it is!
	Because the economy has been rocked.
	As we come back, we will be putting major investments in the various sectors of the economy to get it moving again.
	And if those investments are done in a way, Fareed, that are green, Dead.
	Dead.
	Yeah, so we're hoping that we make sure this is real after we've already passed it.
	And you're not going to lose your job because someone needs to work at Goodyear.
	a job in the transition to electric cars because the car still has to be built, the wheels
	have to be put on it.
	Yeah, so we're hoping that we make sure this is real after we've already passed it.
	And you're not going to lose your job because someone needs to work at Goodyear.
	And if you think that this is obviously a dark time for America, at least you have a
	new assistant health secretary.
	Beautiful and great.
	Just saying, look, look, take the good you have.
	You take the good with the bad.
	Nobody's perfect!
	I wish I could write a check for my mortgage that way and be like, guys, I'm going to do some work on this to make sure that money's real for you.
	Down the road, that's going to pay off.
	It's a rule of the dice!
	We'll look into it.
	And we're hoping it works out, but we know it may not.
	I like that he was just naming car parts to stall time.
	He's like, wheels, you're going to need somebody's dashboard and a rear view.
	It's got to be a radio, right?
	Carburetor, but most of them are fuel-injected and, you know.
	He's naming all thing-ass red parts.
	Yeah.
	I love how they just gloss over it.
	These horseless carriages are something else these days.
	They gloss over the transition.
	Like, come on.
	Do you not understand that?
	And by the way, it's totally incorrect.
	I think we have the source right here.
	When they say, oh, the fastest growing job sector was wind and solar, that's because government subsidized it.
	and tried to guarantee, just like with Solyndra.
	Well, look, of course you can say it's the fastest growing sector of the market.
	I could also create the fastest growing sector of the market right now by paying people to
	dig a hole with a shovel and then paying the same amount of people to fill it back up with
	another shovel.
	It's the fastest growing sector of the economy.
	It is not.
	You need to look at the private sector.
	And by the way, this is one thing to me, too, while they're talking about green energy policy.
	Okay, hold on a second.
	If you had to pick one person right now in the year 2020 who has actually done more to move the ball forward as it relates to electric vehicles, technological advancements, and creating a product that consumers willingly purchase, who would you name as that person?
	Ed Begley Jr.
	Elon Musk.
	Would you agree?
	Oh yeah!
	He's a billionaire with toys.
	He's just like, let's go to Mars, let's do all this.
	So Elon Musk, you should be courting him.
	He should be your poster child.
	You should be trying to put a ring on it.
	Elon Musk, who did more for the electrical vehicle market than anyone in the history of mankind, had to leave your crappy state because of your crippling economic policies, which were the direct result of your pseudo-green policies.
	In order to create more new green cars and employ more Americans, Elon Electric vehicle Tesla Musk had to leave California in the dust and go to Texas.
	Right, and by the way, I don't know that I have a whole lot of sympathy right now for all of the union workers who are pissed off about this, all the pipeline workers, all of the people in Pennsylvania and West Virginia and all these places.
	I don't know that I have any sympathy, because we told you this was going to happen!
	You know what we did?
	We played video of Joe Biden telling you this was going to happen!
	And then you still voted for him!
	Sorry, not sorry!
	You never listen to daddy.
	And this is, by the way, let me cut this off of the past.
	The media is going to say that actually 11,000 jobs weren't lost is what they're trying to argue because they were only temporary, right?
	They were lasting on average.
	I think we have this from Newsweek or PolitiFact.
	What is it?
	Pinocchio is the truth meter.
	They said 19 and a half weeks.
	No, TC Energy, they're the company, okay, who were primarily behind the pipeline, said it would be under construction till 2023.
	And by the way, you know who cares about those jobs?
	The guys working for 19 and a half weeks that aren't working for 19 and a half weeks now.
	Even if that number was correct.
	Fight for 15!
	Get a stimulus check!
	These people make more than $15 an hour and they don't need a stimulus check.
	But you want them unemployed so you can grease the pockets of your Wall Street buddies and then give them scraps.
	We don't want scraps!
	We just want everyone to play by the rules!
	Yeah.
	And in two years, they might come up with other work for them.
	Right, yes, exactly.
	Not really that temporary.
	We're working on that.
	Listen, everyone is being laid off.
	Hold on a second, hold on a second, hold on a second.
	Okay, before you speak up, listen, let me finish.
	We may be calling you in two and a half years.
	Stay by the phone.
	We'll look into it.
	And by the way, it's not because we're against pipelines.
	Look up a map of all the pipelines in the United States.
	Just look it up real quick and just see.
	see. So going back to the... It's just rest areas. Just rest areas and scribbles on a bathroom sculpture.
	The United Association of Union Plumbers and Pipefitters, of course, they endorsed Biden for president.
	That's what they get?
	And this is what they get.
	And by the way, this is the thing.
	You don't even understand how this affects people who aren't necessarily in your union, not to mention the plumbers and pipefitters of Mushroom Kingdom.
	They have had the worst end of it.
	Oh, man.
	That really sucks.
	I feel bad for them, man.
	Nobody's looking out for them.
	He's gone through so much.
	And this is something that's ironic to me, too, what they're talking about.
	You know who couldn't give less of a rat's ass or fewer rat's asses?
	The least amount of rat's asses?
	The fewest amount of rat's asses that they have in current inventory.
	With the illegal immigrants!
	They're talking about union jobs, right?
	They're talking about, we need more union jobs.
	But then they want to just give everybody who didn't sign the guest book a path to citizenship who'll pick a head of lettuce for eight bucks and undercut your job salary.
	This is what's happening, right?
	They put a halt to the wall because another migrant caravan showed up.
	Wow.
	New footage.
	Yeah.
	January 17th.
	Yeah.
	Look at that.
	Someone get a census worker down there to count the heads!
	You know it's bad when Guatemala's like, this is gross.
	That went real bad over there.
	That was just after they won a soccer match, don't worry, everything's good.
	Oh, so there's going to be a riot?
	Yeah, pretty much.
	When they win.
	And not only that, this president, again, looking out for you, he included non-citizens in the census, and worse than that, the apportionment of congressional seats.
	He wants to, President Biden wants to include non-citizens in, actually, the apportionment of congressional seats, which we... Wait, what?
	That means we have 8 billion citizens?
	Yeah, that's a lot.
	That's a big jump year over year.
	A lot of growth.
	People were bored during COVID.
	Little known fact, illegal immigrants cost the American taxpayer an average of $116 billion per year.
	But I'm sure that'll all be fixed if you just grant them a path to citizenship, regardless of criminality.
	It couldn't be more clear.
	It couldn't be more clear.
	that this administration doesn't care about you. And it always surprised me because I wasn't a
	huge Donald Trump fan, but he did seem to actually have a heart for people who were
	out there working and certainly his policies were at least rewarding to people who wanted to work.
	All of these policies reward people who don't work, whether they're on welfare or they work
	for hedge funds, or they harm people who simply want to open their business or go back to work.
	It didn't seem like Anna Nicole Smith handing that old man his will and just having him sign it.
	That's all I think about every time Biden signs something.
	It's just about, okay, let me find my pen.
	Oh, this pen doesn't open.
	No, it does.
	I don't know.
	It's movie night!
	It's going to be a picture show.
	Chuckies!
	One of the things, you said they should be courting Elon Musk?
	Well, actually, the Department of Justice opened an investigation into him not hiring people because he asked about the citizenship.
	That's right.
	Me too.
	Pretty sure they opened an investigation on me too.
	Well, they should have.
	I mean, you deserve it.
	He doesn't so much.
	Listen, I didn't complain about it.
	Just saying it's expected at this point.
	I'm just assuming that because all of you are going to be investigated who didn't vote for Joe Biden, former Vice President Joe Biden.
	I can't claim that with any certainty.
	It's just conjecture.
	By the way, hit the notification bell, because subscriptions don't mean a whole lot here on YouTube.
	And we are here every day, weekdays, Monday through Thursday, I should say.
	10 a.m.
	Eastern.
	And again, the best thing you can do to help the algorithms right now, to not let YouTube silence us, is just comment, comment, comment, comment, comment, comment, comment, comment, leave a comment.
	Whatever you think.
	Who do you think's in charge?
	Peanut butter on bread, I don't care.
	But that will help.
	And leave a comment as to Quarterback Garrett's awful try-casting today.
	Don't worry about it.
	I'm already whipping myself.
	And this is a big contrast, I think, with the previous administration.
	Look, America First sort of became a slogan.
	It became a bumper sticker.
	It became a hat.
	But it really was a framework for the policy, for better or worse.
	The Democrats said that Donald... Listen, people who voted for Donald Trump liked Donald Trump because he did what he said he was going to do.
	People who hated Donald Trump hated Donald Trump because he did what he said he was going to do.
	And a big part of what he was going to do was put America first.
	The left saw that as xenophobic.
	The left saw that as racist.
	By the way, putting America first also means all of the black Americans and LGBTQ AIP and a silent number two Americans.
	It means putting all Americans first and it was consistently, uh, it was, it was consistently
	addressed as being, I don't even know what xenophobic means anymore. I don't mean you're
	afraid of everything. It's such a bullshit term and I won't use it. But here is how your
	current former vice president, Joe Biden feels about America first. Does president Trump's
	foreign policy deserve some credit?
	A little, but not a whole lot.
	We find ourselves in a position where we're more isolated in the world than we've ever been.
	Our allies are going alone.
	America First has made America alone.
	Yeah, but what if you're alone and awesome?
	That's a benefit.
	I like it when I'm company.
	He wants to go down the love tunnel swan pedal boat with Ahmadinejad.
	You know what?
	Sometimes hitching your wagon to an asshole isn't a good thing.
	By the way, I feel like the left, their entire purpose of being in the world is to be accepted at the cool kids table.
	That's everything they do is they're like, oh, we want to be cool.
	We want the European Union to love us.
	We want Britain to love us.
	We want Russia to love us and China.
	Shut up.
	I don't care.
	Trump didn't care what they thought.
	He cared what we thought.
	Yeah.
	Right?
	American citizens who he is supposed to represent.
	I'll even take it one step further.
	If France loves you, you're doing something wrong.
	Well, you're probably going to surrender pretty soon, too.
	I don't think there's anything good about France actually liking me.
	That's it.
	What's wrong with being alone?
	That's because, you know what, Joe Biden is the kind of person who's incapable of being alone.
	He's not someone who can have alone time because his voice is dark.
	He falls, I mean.
	Yeah, he needs the assistance.
	I've fallen and I can't get up!
	Yeah, just laying at the bottom of the White House stairs holding a heavy hamper.
	Secret Service being told to stand down?
	Let it happen, just let it happen.
	Just let him play out, he needs to learn.
	Just one of them with a slimy ear of corn along the steps.
	Kamala's just putting on a crown for some reason.
	There's gotta be a more efficient way to do that.
	It's my turn.
	Come on, it's time for you to bring me my daily regular Jell-O with thumbtacks in it.
	This tastes like poison, this Jell-O.
	It's like an episode of Game of Thrones.
	And why is Bill Cosby actually delivering it to me?
	He's on furlough.
	Here you go, you fall asleep, I'm gonna do things to you, diddly diddly.
	That's got dark.
	So former Vice President Joe Biden right away rejoined the World Health Organization, the Paris Climate Accord, wants to rejoin the Iran nuclear deal next.
	So you know what?
	I guess it's better than being alone, making sure that you link arms with France, with the communists in China, and Iran.
	The triplets from hell!
	Listen, the collective isn't more important than the individual if the collective is morally reprehensible.
	If the collective involves people who want the eradication of, not some Jews, all Jews!
	All gays!
	And by the way, what we're talking about, we'll go back to the Paris Climate Accord, what do you think is going to happen with China?
	It just doesn't work.
	If we believed that this would work, it still isn't the right thing to do and you still shouldn't kill American jobs.
	But I don't believe it will work because you forced Elon Musk to leave your state with your shitty policies.
	No, I just agree.
	Elon Musk had to leave California!
	Yes, the guy who's sending people to Mars, eventually.
	Would you have ever believed this if someone said eight years ago, Elon Musk, the guy who's going to be at the forefront of electrical vehicles, is going to flip the bird to the bluest state in the union exclusively because of its bluestatedness?
	You wouldn't believe it.
	What?
	The electric car guy is going to leave California for Texas?
	It's counterintuitive, I think.
	They'd lock me away!
	This would be a good case study, just to look at California and be like, yeah, see, when we warned you there about those policies killing businesses, now, like, half of your businesses have moved out of the state?
	That's not a big number.
	They weren't allowed to put up solar panels in the Mojave Desert because of some endangered insect.
	Are you serious?
	Who gives a rat's ass about an insect?
	Who cares about the Mojave Desert?
	Just use it as a nuclear testing site.
	Get rid of all insects, I'll say it.
	You want to eradicate something?
	Spiders.
	Yeah, let's get rid of spiders.
	Mosquitoes.
	And sharks.
	Oh, but it's an apex predator.
	I don't really care, because someone else replaces it.
	I'll take seals to replace the great white sharks.
	I don't think any of us would be like, remember when the great whites were taking out our hamstrings?
	I don't give a rat's ass!
	And by the way, I don't believe you on that either, because you say, well you can't take out an apex predator like the great white shark because it disrupts the ecosystem, and now you don't want us to take krill oil because it's at the bottom of the ecosystem, it's at the bottom of the food chain.
	So which is it?
	Can we only pick animals to eat that are right in the middle?
	Does it have to be somewhere between mackerel and dolphin?
	I don't know what it is, the point is, I'm going to use Whale oil to light my lamps.
	Yep.
	Wow.
	That's what I do.
	It's effective.
	You can chew it, too.
	It's a classic.
	It's very usable.
	It strengthens your jaw.
	I like mewing.
	So, let's go through the cabinet here.
	This is something else that we can talk about right now.
	Again, they're just like you.
	The new Secretary of Treasury, Janet Yellen.
	Janet Yellen.
	She made $7.2 million in Wall Street speaking fees, one does, including $810,000 from the hedge fund Citadel.
	And a lot of people don't know, Citadel is a major business partner of Robinhood, and allegedly were the ones who put pressure on them to lock you out from being able to invest.
	But don't worry!
	Citadel could still sell!
	How is that not criminal?
	How are people not being dragged out in zip ties when people who are investing their own money are blocked out from buying?
	What is happening?
	Don't put your hands up!
	I was trying to make sure that it wasn't me.
	He surrendered.
	How are these people not being hauled out in zip ties?
	They should be.
	We've never seen anything like this because everybody got locked at home, lost their jobs, needed something to do, and we're like, let's screw Wall Street.
	It all fell like you think it would.
	Yeah, but on top of that, it's like everybody just got a check deposited in their account
	for stimulus money.
	What are you going to do with it?
	Big bird to Wall Street.
	I'm going to put all $3,600, whatever it was, into that.
	Well, yeah, you could really turn it into real money or just starve.
	The point is, when you shut down nurseries, when you shut down plant nurseries, and you
	still allow people to get weed because you consider it an essential service, and you
	shut down churches and restaurants, and you give people money, you shouldn't be surprised
	when they play the stock market like Yukon Cornelius.
	Silver!
	That's what's gonna happen!
	Knowing full well that they could lose, right?
	These people weren't lied to, and that was the justification they used.
	They were like, oh, these people are being lied to right now, we have to stop this for their own protection.
	No!
	They would rather waste the money to screw you.
	It's for your own protection.
	You can't have a firearm to protect yourself from a robber at night.
	For your own protection.
	You can't invest your own money for your own savings account.
	We have to put it through Social Security where we don't have enough retirees paying in per employee for your own protection.
	You can't continue to invest in GameStop stock because it's going up and it's hurting the hedge funders for your own protection.
	Also, we're gonna shut down the pipeline and hopefully in two and a half years we'll have a green job for you.
	We can only do Wall Street the way we win.
	I don't know a single conservative in finance, by the way.
	This is the big myth, too, that people think.
	You're not a conservative because you want to pay fewer taxes.
	That doesn't make you a conservative.
	If you think that anybody is too big to fail, you are not a conservative.
	You are not my friend.
	I don't want you on my side.
	Okay?
	I want to make it very, very clear.
	You shouldn't be protecting the hedge funds, you shouldn't be protecting Janet Yellen, and she shouldn't be able to achieve one of the highest offices in the land with her greatest accomplishment being collecting $7 million in speaking fees from said hedge funds, who she protects, and then Elizabeth Warren says, let me get in on some of that action.
	Okay.
	Now, isn't that insider trading?
	Like, they're allowed to do insider trading, but then they give us all these forums and then they want to pretend that's insider trading.
	Yeah.
	No, it's not insider trading if they do it.
	Well, right.
	It would be insider trading, for example, I found out because I was like, hey, could I just like find a publicly traded company that I really like and buy a bunch of stock and tell people like, hey, I really like this company in a quick trip, though it's not a public company.
	And I was told, well, you actually probably shouldn't do that because it might be illegal.
	Just because I actually like a product and I can actually make...
	And I'm not trying to short the stock.
	I actually want them to make money.
	I can't do it.
	Nancy Pelosi can get a nice little green bill, go across her desk and tell her husband, go
	invest a few million dollars in Tesla because they're going to be the beneficiaries of this
	thing.
	And Uncle Sam's none the wiser.
	So it's OK when they do it.
	It's okay when they do it.
	It's not okay when you do it.
	The system's rigged.
	It's okay when the president of Iran tweets out hate speech.
	It's not okay when you question election results.
	The system is rigged.
	Are you starting to get the picture?
	Climate czar!
	He's back.
	John Kerry.
	He is the retard of the month club.
	It is a gift that keeps on giving.
	I don't think I've ever seen anyone more tone-deaf than John Kerry.
	He's the new climate czar.
	We're back to the era of czars and Russian tea houses.
	How?
	How did we get here?
	He's the guy who brokered the Iran nuclear deal, by the way.
	Huge accomplishment.
	Fantastic.
	So that's another one right there.
	Then you have the new Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken.
	He founded the consulting firm WestExec and formerly employed the new Press Secretary Jen Psaki, I think that's how you pronounce it.
	CIA Deputy Director David Cohen, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines.
	WestExec, their clients include Microsoft, Facebook, AT&T, Bank of America, and Boeing.
	You know, they're just like you.
	It's a family business.
	And then people, this is the issue with social media, right, which we'll talk about in a little bit.
	People go, why are you complaining?
	Why don't you go create your own social media platforms?
	Because we're talking about Facebook, Microsoft, AT&T, and by the way, they have major investors if you look at Bank of America and Boeing.
	You look at all these people and all these cozy relationships.
	We don't have the fiber optics to do it, and then they lobby people in the government who make sure that they shut out competition.
	It cannot be done!
	There are certain sectors of the economy right now where you could not start a competitive business even if you had more money than Putin because of the legislation and because of the people who have been appointed to these cabinet positions and the highest levels of government.
	It's just not something that can happen.
	There is no new company that could come out and compete with Facebook, Alphabet Google, Twitter, Apple, Microsoft, because they have their claws in with this administration.
	And of course, they bet everything on Black.
	They bet everything on Biden becoming president.
	And right now, you're seeing it paying dividends.
	These people have full control over what you say, what you can do, and where you can invest.
	Now, in a very tangible way, where you can invest your money.
	Yeah, when it doesn't suit their purposes, right?
	They'll still allow you to sell that stock, which will drive down the price and help the hedge funds out, but you can't buy another share, right?
	Not on their platform.
	And by the way, every single thing that I hear right now from his economic advisors, from Buttigieg, from Kerry, everybody who's asked any questions, it goes back to climate to take care of the economy.
	Are you serious?
	You're telling me that climate is the way we're going to get out of this economic downturn when you signed executive orders killing thousands and thousands of jobs?
	Those Mojave mosquitoes have to get paid somehow, Gerald!
	So, by the way, if you're watching this right now, you're listening, just leave a comment.
	Leave a comment.
	Let us know what you think.
	What do you think the most egregious offense is here as far as people who are in charge and really the information war against the American middle class and working class right now.
	And I want to be very careful about that.
	When I say working class, I mean working class.
	I want to be very clear in that what I am talking about is different from Bernie Sanders or the Yang Chang gang.
	Business owners are the working class as well.
	Small business owners, mid-sized business owners, business owners that are running businesses that are multi tens of millions of dollars, they also are the working class.
	And even the people who work for them, who maybe make $50, $100, $200, half a million dollars a year, they are still working class.
	The difference between these people and those who work in Wall Street and hedge funds is not the amount of money in their wallet or whatever, in their EBT card.
	Now, I have no idea.
	It's the rules by which they have to play.
	Look, we employ 15 people here, okay?
	This is a mid-sized company at this point because you have joined it.
	We're incredibly grateful and people here are able to make a living.
	But we actually have to pay taxes.
	We actually have to play by rules here.
	We can't practice insider trading here.
	Other people in Washington can.
	People on Wall Street can.
	They do it all the time and they get furious when you try and do exactly what it is that they're doing.
	The number of dollars in your pocket.
	It is about the rules by which you are forced to play, and there are two sets of rules.
	So don't turn this into a Dark Knight Rises, eat the rich, and go down and protest the guy who owns your local Jimmy John's where Biden's getting free sniffs, because that guy is just scraping along too, and there's a huge difference between someone who runs some businesses and has a few million dollars in his savings account, for which we should all be happy for that person, Versus somebody who is managing billions of dollars and gambling with money that's not his and really doesn't gamble because he gets bailed out in perpetuity.
	Huge difference!
	Huge difference!
	And I want to be really clear about that.
	Yeah, there is an idea that somebody who franchises a McDonald's or owns their own business is somehow in the same level as somebody like a Jeff Bezos.
	Right.
	They're not.
	There's just complete... it's misinformation.
	Right.
	And people take it out on that guy where these guys are screwed more.
	I think... Yeah.
	That middle class business owners are screwed more than anybody in the country right now.
	They're doing anything they can to stay afloat.
	One of the most generous guys I ever knew, and was very, very wealthy, you know how he got wealthy?
	It was burger patty machines.
	He started off as a sales representative selling a part for basically everywhere like Wendy's and stuff.
	They have a specific machine that slices at a specific, you know, whatever, a quarter inch, whatever.
	And he was selling a part.
	And then the person who was selling the machines themselves was retiring.
	And so he bought the machines and then he bought the patent to whatever the wax paper was.
	And he ended up building this empire and becoming wealthy.
	And he's done a lot of good with it.
	And you know what?
	The guy has a good amount of money and I'm happy for him.
	I don't want any of this to breed jealousy.
	I want this to hopefully bring some truth to light.
	And that's the danger that I see with some of the former Bernie bros who became the MAGA crew.
	And there isn't necessarily a principled backbone.
	Look, it's not just about taxes or about the fact that someone has more money than you.
	There's nothing wrong with that.
	There is something incredibly wrong.
	With a very select few, group of people, not having to play by the same rules as the rest of us Americans.
	And that is how you rig a system, and that is how you keep people from rising up.
	We have more social mobility in this country than anywhere else in the world.
	How do you eliminate that?
	Through huge government intervention and socialism.
	That's how you end up with Russia, that's how you end up with Venezuela, and that's what happens when you manipulate markets and you have your rich, wealthy hedge fund buddies decide which rules have to be obeyed and which can be disregarded.
	If you look at any industry where there's, let's look, okay, finance.
	Healthcare?
	Education?
	These are not bastions of deregulation!
	There's so much red tape!
	It's this principle that there are people out there that are smarter than you, that know way more than you, that can take care of it for everybody.
	They are smart enough.
	Janet Yellen is smart enough to make sure that the economy stays on track.
	We found out over history nobody can do that, right?
	Nobody in the world can make sure the economy stays on track, especially when COVID hits, right?
	Nobody can predict that kind of stuff.
	John Kerry can make sure the climate is going to be just fine.
	These people can't do that.
	None of these people are your saviors.
	But they think they are.
	They told you 15 days to flatten the curve!
	A year is more than 15 days, Michael!
	Just a little bit.
	It's always the details.
	Herd immunity would have just weeded this out by now.
	It would have.
	It's insane.
	It really is.
	But don't buy into that principle that there's somebody out there that's going to save you.
	That this smart person is going to be the one that takes care of everything.
	And that's their whole plan.
	Look at the crew they ran back.
	They didn't restock the team with a bunch of new ideas.
	They put 70-plus-year-old people out there and said, let's see if it works this time.
	Right?
	It's like Dawn of the Dead.
	Everybody's returning.
	Yeah, they took away your pursuit of happiness, which is the first time this has ever happened in this country.
	Yeah, they're making you live off the government teat.
	Or as they call it, Build Back Better.
	Some people would argue that's a synonym for Great Reset.
	One is hate speech.
	One is straight from the horse's mouth.
	John Kerry, Climate Czar.
	And it's very horsey-mouthed.
	Anybody know what $2,000 times every single American citizen comes out to?
	I think it's a little less than $2 trillion, the plan that they're trying to push through right now to take care of everybody.
	Tons of money in there for them.
	Well, you know what?
	The Robin Hood, they're walking away laughing.
	So, good for them.
	Don't be a simpleton.
	If someone markets to you Robin Hood through a financial app, they're probably screwing you.
	We're gonna take from the rich and give to you.
	Just do a brief cursory Google search and you see where their money comes from.
	There are other apps out there where you can invest, do day trading, and they didn't lock you out, but they didn't market to you like you Bernie bros.
	Like, oh, Robinhood.
	Oh, Robinhood, it's for the middle class.
	Great class warfare.
	They played you like a fiddle.
	Speaking of fiddles, um, actually we, uh, I think we have the theme song, uh, here.
	We have a major, we've been working behind the scenes quite a bit and, uh, very excited here to bring in my representative, my attorney, Bill Richmond has a major announcement here.
	I've been told that I have to keep this professional.
	Oh, really?
	How are you, Bill?
	I'm wonderful.
	Oh, hold on, let's get his microphone on there, Tim!
	Okay, can you hear me, Rusty?
	There's absolutely no way this is going to stay professional, but I'm here.
	I'm doing my best.
	I'm doing my best, and I'm not referencing any ethnicity or previous statements in the show, which could get me into trouble.
	Yeah, don't do that.
	Which is the show!
	So, Bill, let people know, we've been, obviously we've been on break for a while, I've had some health issues, of course, but there's been something that we've been working on for a good amount of time, and then it came to a head, and I think today you can officially announce it.
	Absolutely.
	I think folks know how we first got to work together, and when we first started working together, it was because of the bad things that were done by a particular certain tech company, and how they were trying to screw with a variety of ways that you Interact with that platform.
	And the platform that's in the target, again, in the crosshairs, is Facebook.
	I was going to say Friendster.
	So it was going to be Friendster, but then we reached out and they were totally cool, so it was fine.
	So, okay, so be clear here.
	So what do you mean crosshairs?
	You are filing... We have already initiated and will be publicly announcing and making available for everyone a lawsuit that we're filing against Facebook Inc.
	regarding unfair competition, fraud, false advertising, and antitrust.
	You've done more than all the Republican Senators!
	A little bit, yes.
	And I know that behind the scenes we've been disappointed that there have been four years and not a lot has been done about big tech.
	Can you clarify, because a lot of people go out and complain here about being banned or having something removed and they're filing some petition.
	This is different from that.
	We are filing, in fact, you have filed a lawsuit.
	It's available at lottowithcrowder.com.
	There's going to be more information there.
	We're going to be providing that and we'll be keeping updates on folks.
	That's why I'm going to be spending more time away from the show and focusing on the lawsuit as we move forward.
	The reason why it's different is because we're going after Facebook based on its own words and its own promises.
	It's a platform that was ever since 2016 when the Gizmodo article came out and said, oh, we're suppressing the feed.
	We're taking certain views and we're going to suppress them in the trending and news topics.
	We don't do that anymore.
	That's what Facebook said.
	We don't do it.
	They told Congress we don't do it.
	They told the consumers we don't do it.
	They told us that they don't do it.
	But over the course of the years, we've realized they actually are doing it.
	And we've seen it from the election stream that was cut off from various posts and other things that have been suppressed.
	Did we ever get a reason as to why that stream was cut off?
	None.
	Not a one.
	By the way, this is the biggest independent election stream ever, of all time, taken off from the biggest social media platform, the biggest most powerful company of all time, with no reason.
	None at all.
	That's what people need to understand.
	This isn't, oh, something was put up there, and something was throttled, or they said that this post wasn't good, or this meme, or they removed the biggest stream that ever existed.
	From the biggest platform that's ever existed, with no reason.
	So what's different of this lawsuit from other lawsuits that have gone against Big Tech, and a few have some very specific factual reasons, but ours is really pro-business, anti-fraud.
	You can run a business however you want.
	If you were a social media platform or any kind of business and you want to allow certain types of contents or certain kind of customers in your store or on your platform, you're allowed to do it.
	But what you can't do is lie.
	What you can't do is say, we are open to everyone, we don't discriminate based on political ideology or race or religion, and then turn around and actually do that, both expressly and through the software that you're implementing.
	And the whole reason is because they need creators to be able to drive users.
	The only thing they have is eyeballs and ears to be able to sell ads.
	And so they get creators to bring this data into them to bring you So what is it that we want from Facebook?
	I mean, it's at the very front of their FAQ.
	Our business is your data and being able to sell that data for ads.
	And yet they bring people in on the auspices of saying there's no discrimination, but in
	reality the bias is clear through their enforcement policies.
	So what is it that we want from Facebook?
	It's not getting a post up here or there.
	No.
	The very first thing that we're looking for is injunctive relief.
	The specific lawsuit, the specific statutes that we're using in this lawsuit focuses mainly on getting them to just, in a word, stop it.
	Just to simply stop it.
	Stop it!
	Stop it!
	Stop all of it!
	Stop!
	Stop throttling.
	Stop secretly throttling.
	Stop expressly throttling.
	Stop doing all of the different things that are anti-competitive behavior, that are unfair competition.
	Stop listening to certain media companies tell you, oh, I don't like this other media company.
	Shut down their page.
	Throttle their ads.
	Throttle their users.
	Keep their users from being able to see or even like their particular posts.
	And that's the difference that we're going to be employing here.
	Yeah, that sounds pretty intense, so you won't be on the show as often.
	We'll have Dave here and some other folks around, and that's because you have to focus on this.
	We are going to be focusing on this.
	Avoiding tangos in the first paragraphs.
	Exactly.
	We've already started that procedure.
	You're going to be learning more about that.
	You're going to be seeing a post today that's going to have a lot of information.
	You're going to be seeing that official filing as it comes out of the clerk's office and definitely in the next day or two.
	But as we work through this process, it's going to be long, it's going to be hard.
	As we talked about, this is not going to be something short and likely we will be Yep, we absolutely are, and it's going to take quite a bit of time, but you know what?
	don't want to follow the law. But we know that we're ready and prepared to take
	this all the way to the US Supreme Court. Yep we absolutely are. Wow. It's going to
	take quite a bit of time but you know what? Ban me bro. Oh that's right they
	This is going to be our last stream ever to Facebook.
	Sorry, Facebook.
	But right now, because, you know, it's not, I mean, I don't know if they do their due diligence.
	They can spy on Mug Club on YouTube and hear what we're saying about them.
	But really, it's just, I don't want to give you our dollars anymore.
	Yeah, well, and you shouldn't.
	And look, I found out about this this morning.
	I talked to Bill just before the show.
	Somebody had to do this.
	Somebody had to take a stand.
	We've been beaten down for the last three or four months pretty heavily.
	We need a win.
	We need somebody to go out and fight back against this stuff.
	So thank you, Bill.
	I'll miss you, but go get him.
	He's not going to be around a bunch, but that's because he is charging forward.
	And you know what?
	Here's the thing, a lot of people go out and fire, fire, fire.
	There's ready aim fire as far as whenever you're looking at a suit and you're doing your due diligence and you're filing your briefs and you're making sure that you're doing the proper research.
	There's been a lot of, and I'm saying this, people just be clear, figuratively, there's been a lot of firing out there like Yosemite Sam was, oh this was banned, oh and Well, actually, you said that there were 60,000 dead people voting there, and that's actually not true, but there was a number of these thousands of people.
	Like, we can look at these voter rolls, but what you said was incorrect.
	That's why they removed it.
	So some people go out, don't do their due diligence.
	You have to spend time readying and aiming and preparing.
	And that hasn't been done a whole lot by those on the right.
	And that's why I say some of you have been, some folks, not everyone, there have been some folks at the top who've played some people and we want to be as transparent with you as possible.
	And it's going to take some time, it's going to take some funds, but I'm pretty happy to have Senor Richman here.
	Thank you very much, sir.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	I appreciate it.
	All right, get out of here because now we have to talk about Republicans who are dead to me.
	There he goes.
	Love you, Bill.
	Get out of this video.
	Good man.
	I don't think people realize how monumental that actually is.
	It really is.
	It's one of those things, and it becomes white noise because I'm like, oh, but Facebook did this thing.
	No, no, no, no, no.
	We're not going to file this unless we're going to win.
	Hashtag Crowder Sues Facebook.
	We've got to get something going out there.
	Everybody has to hear it.
	That guy stole his company from two big twins.
	There's a movie about it, yeah, that's right.
	It's just a remake of The Karate Kid, but it's big tech.
	And you know what?
	I hate that we have to, here's the truth, I would love to just be able to do the show here.
	This is something, too, a reason we had to, because of, obviously, we've talked about, you know, my wife and some health issues, which we're going to probably turn into a docuseries as I go to the Mayo Clinic.
	Thank God for the Mayo Clinic.
	And we'll be showing some more health updates for those who are Mug Club members once we leave YouTube.
	I don't want to do this.
	I don't want to have to sue Facebook.
	There have been people at the top who claim to be on your side who have had information sitting in their lap and they've done nothing with it that could turn the tides.
	And we've made calls going, why don't you turn the tides?
	Why don't you turn the tides?
	Well, this is, you know, we have a function.
	We have a dinner, Marriott Ballroom B, someone's hair dye is running down their jowls.
	The point is, you have been played by some folks here who don't always have your best interests at heart.
	Four years, the most important issue of our time, nothing was done.
	No more softballs here?
	You put an R next to your name?
	Great.
	Prove it.
	Here's the litmus test going forward, guys.
	Here's the litmus test.
	We don't need a third party.
	We don't need Donald Trump Jr.
	to come out of Mar-a-Lago and, I don't know, create the Patriot program.
	Here's the litmus test that we start with, okay?
	You look at your representatives, and this is the beauty of Donald Trump, this is the beauty of the last four years, you look at your representatives, you look at the people you voted for, did they do exactly what they said they would do when they went to office?
	Now, I'm not saying, I know someone like a Rand Paul, who by the way, I like Rand Paul, a little bit catty, could you turn down the cattiness?
	Hey, well listen, they don't follow the Constitution, but not me.
	We get it, just make yourself, you know, just change the dungarees to low-cut.
	Very low cut.
	Whoa.
	Hold still.
	Whoa, whoa.
	What?
	I'm just saying.
	The man's got hips.
	I don't even know what I was saying before this.
	I was saying something before I got distracted.
	I have no idea.
	I don't even know about his hips.
	You've got to hold the Senators accountable and people in Congress.
	Here's the litmus test.
	It's very simple.
	Do they do exactly what they said they would do?
	And I don't mean like Rand Paul comes up with a bill that you obviously know is never going to make it through.
	Right, right.
	But he still tried, right?
	And I don't mean that if someone goes to the Senate and they vote yes and ultimately it gets voted down by Democrats.
	I'm talking about people, and there are a lot of people like this, who tell you they're going to pass or create draft legislation one way, or vote one way, and before it even comes down to the fight, they fold.
	This is your test.
	Did they do that?
	You vote them out.
	Primary them.
	This whole idea of an incumbent?
	We just had a reality show host for president for four years!
	It wasn't that bad.
	There is no more power in incumbency.
	Not the same that there used to be.
	Let's start with that.
	And let's keep an eye on them.
	So let me go through, rattle off a little quick list of people who, I don't want to say dead to me, but they're on my no-fly list.
	I'm a little pissed at him right now.
	Mitch McConnell?
	Listen, this is no surprise here.
	At first I thought, when you watch this clip, it's not the new assistant health secretary, this is Mitch McConnell.
	The mob was fed lies.
	They were provoked by the president and other powerful people.
	And they tried to use fear and violence to stop a specific proceeding of the first branch of the federal government, which they did not like.
	I was waiting for his tongue to come out and grab a fly.
	Okay, Levine!
	Blaming President Trump for violence at the Capitol.
	Yeah.
	When the guy said, look, saying you should go make your voices heard and only ever specifying peaceful does not warrant an impeachment post-presidency.
	Talk about a snake in the grass.
	Yeah, it does say, it's exact quote, peacefully make your voices, yeah, it's still true.
	But that's not the only thing.
	He's doing this now because he's trying to appease the left.
	Apparently he actually believes that Biden and AOC and Kamala Harris will unify with him.
	Hope you like that giant sleeping bag with the Paris Accord and Iran!
	He also blocked the Graham-Cassidy bill, which would restrict using insurance to cover abortions and Planned Parenthood visits.
	So this is a point here.
	You don't even have to compromise there.
	You don't have to!
	No Democrat would say that you're a radical if you simply support a bill that doesn't provide insurance benefits for abortions.
	They're like, well, okay, that's par for the course.
	It's not opposing a stimulus bill.
	It has nothing to do with optics.
	They expect you to not want to kill babies.
	Especially the eighth time, Jennifer.
	Too far?
	Really?
	It needs to sting for Jennifer.
	Jennifer is... it's gross.
	It's that old punch card joke.
	It's just, stop.
	Jennifer, you're worth more than you give yourself credit for.
	I feel like Landau's flicking the jab to find his range here for a second.
	I'm not the only one that's the queen of the cream pies.
	Cocaine Mitch promised more transparency in the Senate, and then he crafted an omnibus bill behind closed doors.
	Well, one does.
	Not to mention he failed to make any major reforms at all as it relates to Section 230 and Safe Harbor.
	And it's like, well, hold on a second.
	You're like, well, what power?
	Doesn't majority leader mean that you have the power of the majority and you're kind of the leader?
	It's in the title.
	So if you can't do anything at all, meaning you're useless, you're a useless human being, effectively a waste of human flesh, it's not my job to question God, but sometimes you feel like he makes mistakes, it's part of a plan that I haven't seen around the bend yet, I'm assuming that's you!
	Rachel Mitch McConnell Levine.
	But I don't understand your use.
	You seem to have out-served your usefulness.
	Bye.
	Let's go through Brian Kemp.
	Governor Brian Kemp.
	Oh, this lovely little mensch.
	Georgia, right?
	Here's the crazy thing.
	I understand that there are people who won't agree with me.
	I understand that there are people who are moderate and, you know, pussies.
	Hello.
	I understand that there are people who won't agree and think that there were zero election irregularities whatsoever.
	Everything was copacetic, everything was on the up and up.
	I understand there are some Republicans who genuinely believe that.
	Not many, but there are people out there.
	What is weird to me is when you have someone like Governor Brian Kemp who acknowledges, readily so, the voting irregularities, but then says, we're going to certify the results anyway.
	Here he is, it boggles the mind.
	However, it's quite honestly hard to believe that during the audit, thousands of uncounted ballots were found weeks after a razor-thin outcome in a presidential election.
	It's important to note that this audit only looked at ballots, not the signatures on the absentee applications or the signatures on the ballot envelopes.
	The Georgians I have heard from are extremely concerned about this.
	So I encourage Secretary Raffensperger to consider addressing these concerns.
	Earlier today, Secretary Raffensperger presented the certified results of the 2020 general election to my office.
	Following Judge Grimsberg's ruling yesterday, state law now requires the Governor's Office to formalize the certification.
	I didn't hear a word over those jazz hands.
	The fisherman's friend jazz hands.
	Oh my goodness.
	Wow.
	It's nothing like the Michigan.
	He actually went like this at one point.
	It's like, you're just not even real.
	He's a plant for Shake Weight.
	He's a Shake Weight psy-op.
	This is his second job, OK?
	This is like saying, hey, there's glass in my soup, and the server offers to return it.
	But before they can finish the phrase, you're drinking the soup.
	I don't understand this.
	He's like, this is regular stuff.
	None of this makes sense.
	But you got my vote.
	Yeah.
	What?
	Well, one of the biggest things that we wanted people to do was verify the signatures.
	And he's like, by the way, this doesn't do anything like we said we would do.
	But nothing to see here.
	Can't talk about it.
	Don't talk about it.
	But you're crazy if you say anything happened.
	And you know what?
	You have outlived your usefulness.
	That's the thing.
	Again, there are times where I understand to make compromises.
	And I don't want to simply vote anyone out who disagrees with you.
	I think you need to vote people out who don't do what they say they're going to do or say, hey, you know what?
	This is rigged and this is kind of bullshit right here.
	Count my vote in for more bullshit.
	Let me clarify.
	We don't want to disenfranchise one voter.
	We don't want to overturn any elections.
	Those are the phrases that are used by the left.
	All you're trying to do is make sure it was legal and that it was fair and every vote was counted.
	We're not allowed to disenfranchise voters with batons at the polls.
	We're not the Black Panthers.
	Oh, they already have that ground.
	Speak for yourself.
	We don't have a supplier for nightsticks.
	COVID's caused a shortage across the globe.
	We need a new sponsor.
	Nightsticks.
	For when beatings are necessary.
	You know what?
	Look, here's the thing.
	I am not saying that no man is beyond redemption, you know, because I'm a Christian.
	It's the hardest part about being a Christian sometimes, because you don't always get to have that revenge dish served cold.
	You have to forgive.
	So I will just say that this is an incomplete and informal list of other Republicans who are, listen, not beyond redemption, but on my no-fly list.
	Don't come on my show if you expect softballs.
	Let's roll it.
	Oh, that one's a dick.
	You know what?
	I'm going to go ahead and get rid of that one.
	I'm going to get rid of that one.
	Yeah, saw Romney on there.
	I think he's on there twice.
	Why Amy Coney Barrett?
	So don't send me your book!
	Oh my.
	I won't promote it!
	These guys, these guys all the time, I can't tell you how many politicians I get sending me like, oh, we want to talk about his new book.
	Like, oh, really?
	Do you?
	Yeah?
	Yeah?
	How would you do something, you useless bag of ass?
	Especially when you know they didn't even write it or know what's in it.
	They're like, no, it's a great read.
	Yeah, just look at it.
	Only talk about Page Five, please.
	My middle name's a hot dog.
	I do hope that this is, and we will get going here to MugClub at loudmouthcrowder.com slash MugClub in a little bit.
	For those who are watching on Facebook, this is the last time we will ever be streaming to Facebook, ever, because Bill Richmond is suing their asses.
	Crowder sues Facebook.
	Can I short their stock before the lawsuit drops?
	No, no, no, no.
	I know it's not legal, but I would like to bet.
	In other words, I would like to bet against.
	Can I bet on him?
	Can we have a betting line where I bet that half-Asian Bill Richmond wins?
	There's got to be.
	Is that illegal if you bet on yourself to win a fight?
	No, I think you can actually bet on that.
	Oh, okay.
	Well, listen, that's what we're gonna do.
	You know what?
	Cancel those vaccines.
	That money's going into a betting pool.
	I don't want one.
	Okay.
	I have a bookie that's threatening to take my thumbs.
	Really?
	No.
	Wow.
	Well, I don't need them.
	No, I'm not the Fonz.
	Well, I don't know if you know this, but I hurt my knee.
	It was not bookie, it was just assholery.
	I think it was a bookie.
	Before we go, look, there is a silver lining here in that the one thing that was always bothersome with President Donald Trump was just that he would shoot from the hip and sometimes he
	wouldn't ready aim, he would just fire, fire, fire. And we would have to correct what it is
	that he meant. He would have to correct what it was that he meant to say two, three, four days
	later. We would have to say, well, look, this is actually what we're talking. That is no
	longer an issue. The enemy, what I mean is the enemy, meaning the people who are trying to stack the
	deck against the American people, the people trying to remove your freedoms to spend your
	money how you want, to go to work how you want, and to speak freely how you want. It is so clear
	right now that you have on one side, Wall Street, big tech, media, entertainment, industrial
	complex, this administration, and on the other side, you.
	You and your personal freedoms.
	This is a wide open lane right now where you do not have to worry about treading carefully and alliances and who's going to be offended.
	It is everyone who wants to live as a free American right now in the year 2021.
	Almost said 2020.
	And everyone in the swamp that is being fertilized beyond all recognition.
	There is some value in that.
	There is some value in the gloves are off, the triple masks are off right now, you can just cough an aerosol and let it fall where they may.
	That's figurative, by the way!
	Okay, leave a comment if you are right now watching on Facebook, on YouTube, if you're watching the Archive, it's the best thing you can do to help this algorithm.
	For everybody else, we are going to go, what?
	Actually, I have something to tell you.
	What?
	It looks like the Blaze, their servers are down.
	I don't know if it's because a lot of people are going there.
	They're completely down?
	But they're down right now.
	So we're not streaming there at all?
	No, we gotta stay here.
	Oh, we gotta stay here.
	Oh, what?
	These guys, you're gonna get extra today because we're, alright.
	Well, can we just, look, can we just do the part where we say piss off YouTube so that way people know that on YouTube, this is where we would usually say piss off.
	But don't go away.
	Don't leave.
	And everyone, let's just be careful, don't say the stuff about YouTube that we say when they don't know we're talking.
	We gotta muzzle a little.
	little. This is going on YouTube.
	Is that...
	Lawsuit against Facebook.
	Big YouTube now.
	Big Blaze!
	Get your shit together, Blaze!
	We're getting it from all sides!
	It's my nickname.
	Somebody... Facebook was like, crash their servers!
	Crash!
	Quickly do it!
	Hurry!
	Send them over there!
	He's showing Facebook!
	Break it down!
	Break it down!
	I don't know.
	Oh no!
	They're showing Facebook!
	Just to make you laugh.
	This is this is this is one of those and but this is usually where we get a little more conversational.
	Yeah, talk trash about YouTube.
	Yeah, honestly, if we get if we look, there's a target on our back.
	been for a very long time. You know where to find us. We cannot create our own YouTube.
	We have a partnership with the Blaze. We also have some other partnerships that are similar
	to YouTube with other websites out there, social media companies that are at least trying
	to create some competitors. And the promo code is CrowderReturns, by the way, for those
	right now getting this free segment.
	But what we can do is make our free content as readily available as possible and then provide you with more.
	Of course, those of you who are MugClub subscribers, please don't be mad.
	We assume that you would rather get this on YouTube, not exclusive, and let a few people get it for free today than no one see it at all.
	Yeah.
	Well, go back to your point of clarity.
	I mean, it's nice that we... Was I making a point regarding clarity?
	Well, before we switched over to... I forgot because I really have to pee.
	You gotta hold it.
	I have to drink a lot of fluid and they had me on this medication for my knee that just makes me have to... Like a diuretic?
	It's like a fire hose.
	You should just put a jug under.
	Yeah, I was gonna say like a funnel or something.
	Like a newscaster in the 70s.
	That's a different segment.
	Of course, that was usually a woman.
	Different platform.
	All right, Dave.
	It's a wide mouth Gatorade bottle.
	You have to pick your vessel carefully.
	We did a whole segment on that.
	How to pee on the road.
	We did.
	Yeah, that's right.
	Yeah, my brother did that and then he threw it out of a bus and broke a windshield.
	I'm not even kidding.
	You don't in a moving car, no.
	He threw it out of a moving bus.
	He didn't watch the end of the video on how to piss on a road trip.
	I mean, he was in high school.
	It wasn't until last Wednesday.
	But he still knew right from wrong, I guess.
	I mean, the frontal lobe is developed enough.
	I know not all synapses are fully formed, but not throwing piss bottle at public transit.
	It's fun when your dad writes a check and has to write, uh, broken piss window.
	Never thought I'd write that.
	You know what, can you make it out to Cash?
	Let's do that.
	Is that alright?
	Can we just keep this between you and Maisie?
	What were you saying there, Jill?
	For clarity?
	I was saying for clarity.
	No, it's great.
	You're right.
	It does clarify.
	It was exhausting having to correct the record with Donald Trump.
	Sometimes deservedly so.
	He would misspeak or something else and sometimes his words would be twisted by the media.
	But it was literally exhausting to go through that.
	And now we do have a little bit more clarity and a little bit more focus We can focus on this issue.
	And I think you hit it on the head.
	230.
	That is the issue.
	It was the issue for four years.
	It's been the issue for a long time.
	But here's the thing.
	If they don't change it, they will cease to exist.
	And it's not because we will just primary and vote them out.
	It's because eventually, they won't have a way to get their voice out.
	Let me tell you guys something, too, here.
	This is some inside baseball.
	A lot of them going on.
	And like I said, we'll be talking about my health going forward.
	Remember that guy who's like, Lena Dunham, who has everything?
	She's like, she has Ehlers.
	No, I have Ehlers-Danlos.
	She's like, I have... No, I... Stop with all the... You don't have all the diseases.
	But the issue also... What is this, Fight Club?
	I am tired of... You know, with conservatives, I did definitely get... We had a lot of things hanging in the balance here.
	And we knew that there were some targets in my back.
	And now you understand a little bit more.
	With Facebook, you'll understand more of it when you read some of the filings and the briefs.
	Incredible stuff.
	From Bill.
	We've been compiling this for a long time, and we had to make sure that we, okay, pull our head back and call it once and call it right.
	Yeah, yeah.
	But I got really tired, too, of having to re-educate constantly those in the conservative movement.
	Now, I don't mean reprogram like Katie Couric is talking about, but for example, when the Vox Apocalypse happened, okay, when this happened, Vox went after us, right?
	And everyone made it about this little guy who's on YouTube, and I said, no, no, no, no, no, no, look, look, look, look.
	This is about NBCUniversal, Vox, right?
	And they also co-produce series with YouTube and with Netflix.
	And they can't compete.
	Look at it.
	Look at Vox.
	Look at NBC.
	It's not about Vox.
	It's about their NBC entities who can't compete with this program.
	And so they're trying to squeeze us out.
	And the problem is you have all these conservatives on shows or pseudo-conservatives on networks like Fox News and these blogs who they want you to focus on CNN.
	No one cares about... Listen, we use CNN as fodder, but the battle has always been big tech.
	And so when people are going, the Democrats and the lamestream media, we here have consistently had to educate conservatives at the top and go, look, look, look, look, look, look, look.
	That's going away.
	Stop focusing on CNN and Rachel Maddow.
	You have Turner trying to step on conservatives on YouTube, and NBC, and ABC Disney, Universal, right?
	The biggest companies in the world have fallen behind.
	By the way, News Corp and Fox News fell behind.
	They didn't know how to use YouTube and social media because they saw it as new media, or as we know it, media.
	And they would try and talk about Don Lemon because it's easier, right?
	It's like shooting fish into a barrel.
	And we would have to educate conservatives and say that's not where the battle is.
	The battle is 2.30.
	Same thing even when we were talking about sponsors on this show.
	We've had to go after sponsors who aren't spineless pussies.
	We've had to go after them individually because we go, does this sponsor who wants to come in and sponsor our show know what we're about?
	Some third party agent says, yeah, yeah, sure.
	I go, no, you know what?
	I don't think they're actually going to like what we're going to say.
	This is what we're going to be saying.
	Like, oh, that's actually kind of risky.
	That's what I was telling them.
	So that's why we go with Walther and Spartan Armor and people who actually give a rat's ass.
	We don't just do a live read at the beginning of a show telling you to buy our shit.
	We actually try and use their products, support them, and create creative commercials.
	But so many conservatives, and this is from the top down, because conservatism often comes from non-profits and these politicians, because they don't have personalities.
	They don't have the entertainment industry.
	It's beholden to the non-profit dollar, and these people don't know their thumb from their dicks.
	And so they focus On CNN, and they focus on cable news, and they focus on Brian Williams, and they focus on how sponsors used to be done for the roll-on, head-on cream, and we have to consistently be at the forefront fighting this war ourselves.
	Look, we shouldn't be the ones filing the Facebook suit.
	No.
	I understand it.
	You're saying, it's not social media drama.
	This is an actual lawsuit that we're filing that's going to be a landmark case.
	Yeah.
	I'm supremely unqualified!
	You're not doing it for publicity.
	I have no interest!
	Yeah, absolutely.
	You know what, I woke up and I said, you know what, I want a quarter of my annual budget to be sucked into a vortex that Mark Zuckerberg can match in perpetuity without even feeling a dent because it's the right thing to do.
	It's because Republicans and their cocktail hour buddies and their think tanks in Washington, D.C.
	and the Upper East Side They're the ones who've been telling you what it is that you should be focusing on.
	And you know what?
	They've been wrong, and they lost the House.
	They've lost everything!
	They suck!
	They're wrong!
	I'm a conservative.
	I don't like many Republicans.
	That's where I am.
	Screw them.
	You've got about a year and a half to fix it, too.
	Anybody out there who's running for these positions.
	If you're primarying somebody else, if you're running against a different... You've got about a year and a half to get your head on straight and realize that you will not have a way to get your voice out.
	Oh, head on straight is a few steps down the trail beyond Pulling their head out of their sphincter first.
	Yeah, it could be up there completely.
	You gotta find out where it is.
	If that means some of our favorite people who didn't act and do their jobs go away, so be it.
	I want somebody who's gonna go there and fight to make sure that our way of life is maintained.
	It's actually a good analogy, you know, the head up the ass, because this is what's actually, so you have these people like the Mitch McConnell's of the world, or even some people sometimes who've been on this show, they have had their head so far up their ass for so long.
	We've gotten on the phone with somebody and they tell us, let me tell you how it's going to be, kid, until they want to promote their book.
	Really?
	Go screw yourself!
	You're going to tell us how it works on YouTube?
	You're going to tell us how it works on Facebook?
	We were the target of the biggest company that's ever... Do you have any idea how surreal it is to hear Susan Wojcicki talking about you committing, using your name?
	Like, oh, Stephen, oh!
	That's like Caligula!
	It's bizarre!
	It's, I didn't want this!
	We wanted to do the show as a goof!
	That's a lot of pressure.
	But these people have had their head so far up their ass for so long, and the problem is their head is so big because of their ego, they're afraid, they've cornered themselves in where they're afraid to pull their head out of their ass because due to the sheer size, they'd have a prolapse.
	And that's where we are now at this point.
	It's not a, it is so...
	It is so bastardized for people who should believe in free enterprise, for people who should believe in an open economy, to be run from the top down by these non-profit think tanks.
	Too many Spocks, not enough Kirks.
	Yeah, yeah, exactly.
	And if you couldn't see this coming, I mean, what are you doing?
	I mean, really, are you just... I know, that still sticks in your head a little bit, you know?
	I have memories.
	Still haunt me like numb.
	What?
	No.
	No, they absolutely should haunt you.
	I've seen the pictures.
	Yeah, I showed you.
	Unrequested.
	Well, yeah, I sent you Polaroids.
	You need to get Dr. Troy on that.
	And he made me pay return shipping.
	I know.
	If you want to send him back, it's on you, pal.
	I was going to say, did you watch a movie about Nam and that's what's sticking in your head?
	No, my dad was in Nam, so I just, you know.
	I heard some of the war when he was sleeping.
	Come home, beat you up every now and then, forget where he was for a second, turn on the microwave, hit popcorn.
	Yeah, we just didn't go to Asian restaurants.
	So we can't go in there and be like, ah, my dad killed three waiters.
	Oh, geez.
	I still have his head up on Panda Express.
	What were you about to say there, Gerald?
	I forgot.
	I pretty much did.
	You pretty much forgot.
	Three white teenagers at Panda Express.
	So we're going to take some of your chat.
	I guess we'll be taking your tweets since we can't take chat from The Blaze.
	Usually we take your chat from The Blaze and it's private, but today we'll be taking some of your tweets.
	But before that, it's time for a fun little news segment for those of you who enjoyed the intro called Stephen Gets
	Hurt.
	All right, so yeah, this has been a very difficult show for me to do because I have this brace on I'm not supposed to
	don't Look, I got those... Don't break it again.
	I don't think you're supposed to do that.
	I'm not supposed to do it.
	Take those house shoes.
	I like that you say house shoes.
	Oh yeah.
	You refer to a robe as dressing gown.
	I do.
	Dressing gown.
	Robe.
	So, you know, I've talked about kind of like, the weird, the hard thing that I have, you know, for me putting in coffee beans in my chest is because for the same reason I hurt my knee, I have this thing called Ehlers-Danlos where connective tissue doesn't work and basically my chest is caving my heart into my chest.
	So we shouldn't have put the coffee beans.
	This is actually the worst thing I can do right now is be like sitting hunched over.
	Yeah.
	So maybe you'll have me come in like Mojo with just an orthotic chair.
	At some point.
	Can we put you in one of those full, like, you know, braces that just holds you up like this?
	That'd be fantastic.
	Right.
	Like Hannibal Lecter.
	And I have been hurt.
	With a doctor like, it's because you've got a big heart.
	There you go.
	His heart grew three times.
	And then he's like, well, but it's bad.
	But it's bigger.
	It shouldn't be up against my chest.
	That's true.
	There's nothing symbolic.
	No.
	That just affects your ventricular output.
	Your stroke volume's a little low.
	Any more, the Grinch would have really been hurt.
	um so i hurt myself taping this intro uh and my knee so and what do you mean what do i let me explain to you for people who are squeamish oh uh it's hard for me to watch this but i figured you know it's gonna get out somehow so we'll you know cut it off at the pass yeah i uh my my kneecap popped out And then my tibia smashed, and I cracked my femur.
	Seriously?
	I have a fracture in my femur.
	Yeah, thank God for Dr. Choi, because then you could see the blood if you follow me on Instagram.
	They pulled out basically a can of coca blood for my knee.
	Yeah, a lot.
	And I was like, but I didn't tear my ACL or anything.
	I was like, what happened?
	That's good.
	What's all the blood?
	Dr. Choi goes, oh, oh yeah, femur fracture.
	Yeah, a lot of blood.
	I'm like, okay, well that makes sense.
	Now I understand.
	Thanks, Doc.
	Now I'm not so worried.
	Great bedside manner.
	I think we, there we go, Joe Louis.
	Oh, he's moving around.
	He's got the joints of a Polynesian weightlifter.
	He never gets hurt.
	Okay.
	Strong.
	Polynesians.
	They're big.
	They got big joints.
	They make horrible bodybuilders because they don't have the right muscle bellies, but they are strong.
	Like Asians and Lithuanians.
	It's not racist because it's nice.
	Yeah.
	That's the line now.
	That's the line.
	Black History Month first.
	Glad to be back with you.
	I think we have the first clip here, right?
	Is this a slow-mo?
	Or is this the... It's a cut between, yeah.
	Oh, this is where you can actually see the moment where my knee snaps out.
	And let me explain to you also what happened.
	I was supposed to, because we were doing slow-mo, so I was supposed to be doing a push kick off of Smooth Manny.
	And in trying to be nice, he was falling back.
	You know, so I didn't hit him so hard. But then the problem is I just keep going forward. So I'm gonna split and my
	foot is on a carpet and just rotates and my knee you can I don't I think you can even hear it. You can see it here. Um,
	snap out and I go down like a bitch.
	Oh, man. Oh my god. So gross. That's Bryce. Oh, very nice.
	Bryce is a little conspiratorial.
	Remember when we had some of these conspiracies that he'd be predicting?
	And my dad goes, you know what they used to do with prophets who falsely prophesied back in the day?
	They would kill them.
	And he just said, I guess it's good I'm not a prophet.
	Just as a matter of fact, yes, we're going to use the first take.
	So now we can actually bring in, because we found out he's not accredited, but a Colombian doctor, Smooth Manny, was there to help me.
	You can come here and sit down.
	Oh, I don't think we have a microphone.
	Oh yeah, okay, there you go.
	So Smooth Manny, you told me you had some kind of medical training, but it was in Colombia.
	Yeah, there's a lot of medicine in my family.
	My grandma's a nurse, dad's a doctor slash nurse, and my grandfather also a doctor.
	Okay, well you hurt me really badly.
	I think you hurt yourself badly.
	Yeah, okay, that's true.
	But I thought that he was going to be more helpful than he was.
	Yeah.
	I'll explain to you here.
	And then you can explain what you felt.
	So my knee was out at this point.
	And this has happened before, by the way.
	This is like the third worst it's been.
	I've had knee surgeries.
	This isn't even the worst that it's been.
	And when it's out, the patella, you kind of just have to, anyone out there who's ever had, I guess we're still on YouTube, if you've ever had a joint dislocation, you ever had to kind of reset it?
	And what happens is, when it's out, you have to pull it back in and it gets really, really, really, really painful until it kind of clicks and there's some relief.
	So, that's what you were about to see!
	That's what is optimal!
	But Smooth Manny is there, and God love him, he's trying to help me.
	I'm going, alright, hey, Joe Louis, lay down there.
	Don't cause problems.
	Okay, good.
	And I tell Manny, I'm like, look, I need you to pull my knee back in.
	But the problem is, Manny, because he's compassionate, he starts pulling just to the point where it's like, ah, ah, ah, and then he hears me scream and he stops.
	So it doesn't reset.
	So I've got to go through hell a second time.
	And I think we actually have the clip right here of Manny resetting my joint
	unsuccessfully and then a second time.
	Someone just grab my ankle and just let me pull.
	Let me pull.
	Ah!
	Ah!
	Just don't keep pulling.
	Don't stop.
	Don't stop.
	Ah!
	Hey, hold it.
	Hold it.
	Ah!
	I love that he's in costume.
	This whole thing is so silly.
	We're good What were you feeling when you were doing that?
	Were you just trying to not hurt your boss?
	Yeah, I wanted to pull, but It felt kind of loose.
	So I didn't want to pull too much and then hurt you even more.
	So I just kind of wiggled it.
	Which did the most damage.
	Let's see what all we can tear.
	You wiggled it?
	What made you think that wiggling a loose joint would be a good idea?
	It wasn't on purpose.
	You were moving, like, if you look at the video, you're doing this.
	I was squirming.
	So I'm trying to move with you, but I think we ended up doing, like, a counter thing.
	Did you feel it kind of click?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, he felt it click.
	And he was trying, but it felt so bad because of just cussing him out.
	I'm like, okay, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
	It's like a peak pain, you know what I mean?
	Like kind of when you're lifting a weight and you hit a peak sort of point in that lift where it's really really hard and you just took it to the worst point of pain and then backed off a little.
	Yeah, without fixing it.
	Good luck with your Rocketta audition.
	Well, thank you very much.
	Your behavior is a horrible indictment on the Colombian Medical Establishment.
	I'm glad you were there.
	That's all right.
	We know, actually.
	Thank you.
	Steve Manny, the doctor, everybody.
	And this is something, too, just for people who... I went to the... What do you call it?
	Is it urgent care?
	It's not emergency room, but it's like... Yeah, urgent care.
	It's where you would find a Colombian doctor.
	Yes, exactly.
	A real one.
	We give you cocaine.
	Well, this is what I will say is remarkable.
	This wouldn't even be possible in Canada.
	Immediately, I went to an urgent orthopedic care, and they sent me that night to get an MRI.
	The only issue there was, if I had been doing direct relationship with my cash-only doctor, I could have had the MRI results the next day.
	The only problem is, because it has to go through insurance, they will not let you have the MRI results.
	So I go and get my MRI done, but that being said, it's better than 14 months in Canada.
	Well, yeah.
	That's the truth.
	And dying.
	They were going, oh, look, we're pulling a can of coke of blood out of your knee.
	Something's wrong.
	We're going to send you in for an MRI.
	I'm like, oh, God, how long do I have to be like this?
	They're going to send you in now.
	I can get an MRI today?
	Wait, what?
	I was thinking, like, February next one.
	So, I get an MRI, and then I have my good friend Mark Ripato.
	He wrote Starting Strength.
	I don't want to say good friend.
	Buddy.
	Yeah.
	Because he says some stuff and I don't want to be held out before it.
	And he says, now, listen, when you go and get your MRI done tonight, they will have the results right there on screen and can give it to you.
	Do not take any bullshit.
	Do not allow them to tell you that you will leave that facility without said MRI in hand.
	I'm like, okay, thank you.
	I go, and I have the MRI, and it's an Asian lady, and it's relevant later.
	Not just pointing it out, just because.
	You're like, so I asked for a new one.
	Actually, I think you'd want the Asian lady in this situation.
	No, you'll see why.
	It's pretty good.
	There's a black dot in the race of her people, but I don't indict everybody because of her behavior.
	That's the point.
	They're individuals.
	This was a bad Asian lady individual.
	I had a female pilot yesterday, and I'm still shaking.
	Not even kidding.
	I'm nauseous on a plane, Amelia.
	So I get the email, and I talk with her, and I go, I say, hey, I said, yeah, so do you have the results there?
	She goes, yeah, yeah, results there.
	I go, OK, can I see them?
	She goes, no, no, no, why can't I?
	You have it right there, and it's right behind a little half wall.
	She goes, yeah, yeah, right there, yeah, yeah.
	I said, God, I can't see them.
	No, too much private information.
	Mine?
	My information?
	I said, my information?
	What's the reason?
	I said, what's the reason that you can't give it to me?
	She goes, yeah, reason.
	I'm glad that you're hearing words and repeating some words that you identify back to me, but I'm asking you for a response.
	What is the reason?
	Yeah, reason.
	Can't give to you.
	And then your doctor's like, please stop asking our cleaning staff.
	And then I ask her, I say, well, OK, can you at least tell me something abnormal?
	Yeah, not normal.
	Really not normal.
	She's like, I know something's wrong.
	So then I say, OK, well, look, can you email it to me or my doctor?
	No.
	They have to fax it.
	And I said, OK, so you're going to fax it.
	Here's the fax number.
	They said they should get it by the end of day.
	I said, why would it be end of day?
	They said, because we don't know how their fax machine works.
	It's a fax!
	You hit the button and it goes, ahhhhhh!
	And I don't even know why you're using it in 2021.
	It's only like 50 years old.
	But they could not email the disk.
	And this is because of insurance.
	And this is because of red tape.
	Then finally, my doctor ended up getting it across the country before this emergency orthopedic.
	And he said, yeah, you have fractured femur.
	That's painful.
	It must have been very painful.
	My God, Dr. Joy, it really was painful.
	Oh, I don't envy you.
	Thanks, Doc.
	I've been hurt real bad.
	I've been hurt real bad.
	Yeah, you cry.
	So what's the prognosis?
	Cry like a bitch.
	We could do a cry right now.
	I love how you text, you tweeted, or text me, sorry, same day?
	Was that the same day that you did it?
	Yeah.
	Yeah, so you sent me a text, you're like, I went down like a bitch.
	Oh yeah.
	He sent me a picture of his knee, I'm like, go get it trained.
	I didn't even want to look.
	Oh my god.
	It was just huge.
	Oh my gosh.
	My wife was focused on the, she had to watch the video four times, she was kind of like cracking up about how you were dressed.
	Yeah.
	It's like, honey, honey, it's his knee.
	his knee.
	I just don't have good joints.
	So this is all for show, and by show I mean the goo.
	Also, this is something else.
	While I was there, this is something you can do in your day-to-day, especially when you're going through the health care system.
	You can red pill people left and right.
	So, when they were draining the blood from my knee and panicking as they were running out of vial space, I was red... When you hear them go, okay, all right, we need another one, I'm like, is there a lot?
	Yeah, there's a lot.
	Guys, did you hit a vein?
	Are you taking stuff that I need to keep in there?
	Those syringes were huge.
	I still had the clarity of mind to talk mad crap on Canadian healthcare and red pill the people who were draining my knee at the emergency clinic.
	Here you go, this is how you do it.
	Uh, tap!
	The blood?
	Yeah.
	A lot?
	I mean... Wait, are you just switching out, uh, vials or something?
	Yes.
	So there's a lot in there?
	Yes, sir.
	Oh, I just looked at it.
	It's bleeding all over the place.
	Don't worry about it.
	It's a... I'm on it!
	It's like tapping tree sap!
	We have these masks, but I'm bleeding all over the table.
	Not doing the double masks.
	No, I'm not.
	Like they've been recommending the devil masks?
	Yeah, I can't believe it.
	Okay, I might need to open the devil mask.
	You sound surprised.
	I'm a little surprised, I've got to be honest with you.
	So this is even for you, quite a bit of fluid?
	Yes, sir, it is.
	Like, I bet you're really good at Jenga.
	Because your hands are very stable.
	Okay?
	Canadians would put Canadian flags in their backpacks if they weren't confused with Americans?
	Yeah.
	What's that about?
	That's because everyone's jealous of the United States, that's the truth.
	There you go.
	And by the end of it, she understood Canadian healthcare was crap, and she decided to go play some Jenga with her little ones.
	Oh, that's nice.
	That's a happy ending.
	Very good story.
	So this has been an installment of Stephen Gets Hurt.
	Ah.
	Oh.
	We're doing it again.
	This week, I was subject to my first auto accident.
	Oh, that's right.
	On the way to the AIDS walk, we totaled the car.
	Did I ever tell you that?
	Jean-Guy was going down to the AIDS walk.
	So I'm in the Jean-Guy leg brace with the mullet and the Montreal Canadiens hat.
	The mustache.
	You're always dressed in funny clothes when you get injured.
	And we get into a car, we total the car.
	We get into a total car crash.
	And when they come to get us, they're taking our blood.
	They're like, you just had a brace?
	You just put it on right after?
	They're like, no ma'am, that's because we're going to, uh, yeah.
	They were taking your blood?
	Yeah.
	On the way to an AIDS walk?
	No, no, no, no.
	They took the blood from the crash.
	Never made it to the AIDS walk.
	Yeah, but if you were like, we're on our way to an AIDS walk, I imagine they'd be like, okay.
	We'll stay back on this one.
	That's where you actually want a double mask.
	Double needle.
	You don't know where that stuff comes from.
	What is a mask?
	I don't know how effective it is, but just double up on a rabbit skin condom.
	You don't need an N95 mask.
	Just have two neck gaiters, they're saying now.
	That's a furry thing.
	Two condoms!
	I throw on three lambskins.
	It's horribly ineffective.
	Yeah, it just gives you genital warts and a baby.
	It is the only contraceptive product which comes with the guaranteed side effect of people.
	Let's go to your chats.
	Tomorrow we have Mike Rowe on the show again.
	This is usually on ModClub.
	Mike Rowe.
	I think he got banned from Facebook.
	He had a little run-in recently with Facebook.
	For being honest.
	He said you didn't necessarily have to go to college.
	It was pretty out there.
	Pretty trade school.
	What a bastard.
	Is he a Nazi, too?
	Hopefully the Reddit investors now understand that when you're all Nazis, nobody's a Nazi.
	But let's read some of your tweets, since we don't have the chat, and take some of the most asked questions here from our little hiatus.
	What do you got there, Tokunawan?
	OK, Joshua asks, how can we limit the powers of executive orders?
	Executive Order Joe has been going crazy over the past week with too many of them.
	There's really not much you can do.
	Well, federal judges can block executive orders.
	What can you do?
	Federal judges.
	What can you do?
	What can you do?
	There's not much you can do.
	Don't vote for Joe Biden.
	The only thing you can do is make sure that you actually hold your own politicians accountable and make your voices heard.
	Look, this is why they don't want you to speak.
	They don't want you to speak on social platforms.
	They want it to be some kind of a social currency where you cannot speak if it's the wrong thing.
	You need to speak out and you need to make sure that you hold your local representatives and your state representatives accountable.
	Yes.
	And you need to make sure that anyone who runs for that office again with an R next to their name is so crystal clear as to where they stand and is terrified of being held accountable to their own voting constituency that they know better.
	There's not much, that's the problem.
	We're at a point right now where there's not a whole lot you can do.
	A lot of these people out there who are waiting on some plan or some conspiracy, which did
	a bunch of damage of course, anyone who actually bought into that, well look, guess what?
	You didn't do anything.
	There were things you could do, you didn't do them, and now there's not that much you
	can do.
	Yeah.
	So, prepare for next time.
	Ready, aim, for next time.
	But, you know what?
	You're gonna have to eat a big ol' pile of crap for a little bit, and that sucks.
	That sucks, it absolutely sucks.
	But we'll be out here at least talking, and we'll at least be out here filing suits, and just like we held that rally in Michigan, there's only so much we... My job is to talk.
	The job of these people, who we elect, is to legislate.
	And all they do is talk, and we've done more for legislation!
	It's ridiculous!
	I don't know why!
	And I don't want to do it, because I'm bad at it.
	I'm really not good.
	I'm a decent talker.
	You can talk, yeah.
	I can talk!
	But for crying out loud, why are we showing up and demanding the freedom of information request from Governor Whitmer in Michigan regarding the senior death toll?
	Why are no Republicans doing that?
	She's the worst.
	I know.
	She just opened 25% as of today at restaurants in Michigan.
	Oh, wow.
	You know the highest death month?
	Wait, hold on a second.
	At Golden Corral, that could be one guy.
	The whole buffet to himself.
	That's so fantastic.
	All right, let's grab another chat.
	This one, I'm sure this will be right in Gerald's wheelhouse.
	Oh, geez.
	All right, Nemo asks, thoughts on big tech fully stopping people trying conservatives from being able to make their own space?
	They took down parlors, so why try to make any different app?
	You're absolutely right.
	You're absolutely right.
	Now, I will say this, there were some mistakes made, and this is one of those things where it's like, oh, no, listen, Parler made some, look, someone says, I hate Jews, you have to leave it up, even though it's terrible.
	Someone says, kill the Jews, you have to take it down.
	One's bad speech, one's a crime.
	I don't know why conservatives don't get this.
	It's very, follow the law.
	Is this about what I wrote in your bathroom?
	And we took it down.
	Yeah, absolutely.
	You can't say that.
	It was unoriginal.
	He copied it from a pipeline truck stop.
	That's true.
	Kill the Jews.
	She needs to be banned.
	Right?
	When people say you can't yell fire in a crowded theater, of course you can't.
	There's a fire.
	What you can't do is deliberately cause a stampede based on a lie which results in bodily harm to people.
	And you have had conservatives who want to play the victim and don't actually follow the spirit nor the letter of the law.
	They made some mistakes.
	I wish they didn't.
	We don't make those mistakes.
	Don't make mistakes.
	Don't give them something to hang you on.
	Because when they ban you for saying, you know what, here's a list of people who voted who don't actually have addresses, and they say you can't address voting irregularities, we're going to ban you, now you have an argument and you have teeth to your argument.
	When you say, well, it's free speech and you allow something up that could be actually criminal, you've now lost your leg to stand on.
	But guess what?
	You are right.
	At this point, there really isn't much of an incentive to create an app, and that's why I was saying for a long time this isn't just about the free market, especially when you look at the donations coming from big tech.
	This is about Republicans and people who actually care.
	You could have had a coalition of Democrats and Republicans who would actually have done something about safe harbor and 230 laws.
	One side because they want free speech to live on, and one side because they want transgender makeup tutorials to not get bad comments or downvoted.
	But the point is there was a time to do that and to hold these platforms accountable to
	their own guidelines, their own rules, and the law that allows them the benefit to
	operate within this wide field that they have.
	Republicans they failed you.
	They didn't do anything.
	And so what can we do?
	Oh, we can file lawsuits.
	We can make sure that we're still here and we're a thorn in the side, and we understand the rules, and we're trying to make sure that you guys have a voice, and if you join up and support at Mug Club, that's what allows us to continue doing this.
	But you're right!
	You're right!
	This is why we were frustrated, and it was a pride-swallowing siege that I will never fully tell you about for four years, where Republicans hadn't... Let's have another hearing.
	Yeah.
	You really think that Republicans didn't have enough to do something about this?
	We were yelling about it for a long time.
	Well, this is where we are.
	I don't know.
	What do you do?
	What does Rumble do?
	What does another website do?
	They've made it clear that they will act completely unfettered and ban anything that they disagree with.
	And guess what?
	Their lobbyists are in the cabinet!
	Yeah.
	Yeah, I think our time is better spent on making sure that our politicians take care of this.
	I mean, I don't know that running off and creating another space is the best solution, because then you have basically just an echo chamber, and you've left the field of battle to some degree.
	What you can do is what we do here, which is you create a service where people can get more premium content.
	We can interact with you.
	It allows us to give you more for your dollar.
	We partner with The Blaze, and then we still can fight back on the free platforms.
	But trying to remove yourself into an echo chamber, that doesn't help.
	Well, and also, we don't necessarily just cater to people who agree with us.
	Right.
	Right?
	We have enough content, enough variety to get people who... Most people hate me.
	Yeah, they disagree with you.
	They're watching because of that.
	That's the kind of thing you have to do.
	You have to bring both people into the same room and let them hear the argument, not run off and make your own to people who already agree with you.
	So, stop worrying about parlor, necessarily, and start worrying about your politicians.
	Well, and also worry about your politicians holding these people accountable.
	Yeah, make sure they take care of this stuff.
	And listen, if you can file suits...
	It's going to cost you guys money out there.
	A lot of people don't want to have skin in the game, either.
	It's something to risk.
	Listen, we're risking our business.
	We're risking our livelihoods.
	And it's a lot of money.
	It's a lot of money to file these suits.
	That's just the reality.
	And so you have to decide, is it worth it?
	Or do you want to bitch on a message board?
	Because we're not.
	We're going to be out there.
	I'd love to see more of you out there.
	Because Republican senators and congressmen, they're not going to do it, in case it hasn't been clear to you.
	All right, let's grab some more chat.
	I'm almost more mad at Republicans now than I am at Biden.
	A little frustrated.
	A little bit.
	Yeah.
	But it feels like the entire thing's a swamp, doesn't it?
	It does.
	And it just...
	That's what bothers me.
	And it's like, I don't want to rub his face in the carpet.
	Biden's going to piss in the carpet.
	He doesn't know any better.
	Well, but we expect that from Biden.
	We don't expect that from Republican senators who talk big in hearings and do nothing afterwards.
	We expect them to actually do something.
	Remember, I was here for the Tea Party when it started in 2009.
	And they wanted to be the party of no...
	And people were criticizing them as the party of no.
	And you know what?
	Some of them were.
	Some of them were just the party of no, and then when they had power, they did nothing.
	Well, guess what?
	Now that you don't have power, you're gonna be a champion for the little guy and have—no, no, no, no, no, no.
	We're gonna silence your voice.
	And by silence, I mean make fun of you and mock you mercilessly.
	I want you to say your stupid things.
	But this will be a platform to highlight the hypocrisy and cowardice for all.
	Of course, former Vice President Joe Biden.
	Awful.
	Probably going to be one of the worst presidents ever.
	I hope he's not as damaging as we anticipate him to be.
	I have no qualms with taking Republicans out of the woodshed.
	All right.
	Another chat.
	Another Twitter since we don't have chat.
	Tweet.
	All right.
	Chris Stockdale asks, how long will the Biden media political honeymoon be?
	As long as he's alive.
	Four years.
	That's ambitious, Gerald.
	I know, right?
	Yeah.
	No, it's going to be as long as he's alive.
	Yeah.
	As long as he is in office or Harris is in office.
	I mean, what would Biden have to do to lose them?
	Think about this for a second.
	Let's walk this through.
	What do you think Biden would have to do for Brian Stelter to say, oh, that was crappy?
	Yeah.
	I can't think of anything.
	Kill 11,000 American jobs?
	Eat a baby?
	Well no I'm serious though like what I mean the guys the Larry King stuff about the rape and all this others like these been accused of some things yeah he's been accused of a lot of I don't know we've seen him sniffing stuff we saw the laptop with old nieces feet yeah so it's like how many things do you have to do before somebody acts like it's bad Yeah, that's a good question.
	I will tell you this, I think it's as long as Democrats are in office.
	And I think this media honeymoon, this relationship, is going to last until legacy media is burned to the ground.
	And that's why, and I say this figuratively, it's already burning to the ground, that's why what's most important to me is blocking them from guaranteeing the Monopoly, Duopoly,
	Tripopoly, the ABC, NBC, CBS, and a couple of cable news networks on YouTube, Facebook, and
	Twitter.
	For the longest time, they ignored them, and they wanted to keep their grips on traditional
	media, and now they realize that they don't have any control over there, and so they're
	spending all of their money to try and shut out the little guy on what they consider new
	media.
	And so the fight right now is not to try and accelerate the burning down of legacy media.
	That's going to happen no matter what.
	The fight right now is to block them from building up the same kind of castle here with
	new media, just like we saw with the Vox Apocalypse.
	That's really what we'll be focusing on.
	I don't think there is anything.
	The guy's going forward now.
	They're Fauci right now on CNN.
	I saw him up there talking about maybe three masks.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	Oh my god.
	And then other people saying, nope, that doesn't work.
	Moron!
	Like, what would it take?
	Would it take, what would it, 15, what, it's like, okay, do you think if they said 15 days to flatten the curve, what do you think it would take for people to think maybe that was bullshit?
	Like, 30 days?
	I don't know.
	How about a year?
	Yeah.
	How about a year?
	What would it take for people to realize that the mask science isn't the exact science that they purported when they started saying, you know what, maybe a double mask.
	And while you're at it, maybe a triple mask.
	And while you're at it, lock yourself in a box.
	But every time the redhead comes out, the Bryce Dallas Howard girl comes out.
	Chuckie?
	Yeah, Chuckie.
	She's not wearing a mask.
	Didn't you stand and believe in it?
	I think gingers are immune.
	It's a recessive gene, so it's like the fly.
	Where, you know, they develop superhuman strength, they have superhuman resilience, but then they ultimately are just really gross.
	Yeah.
	Do you ever connect the freckles when they sleep?
	Yes.
	It all makes double points.
	Alright, last check!
	My brother's a redhead, I can say this.
	And I have a cousin who's gay.
	Yeah.
	I don't speak to him.
	Which is why I can say this.
	Final tweet, and then we're gonna go, we have Mike Rowe tomorrow.
	What do you got there, Tokunawa?
	Okay, final chat comes from Jenny Leslie.
	Sorry, tweet.
	What do you think of the concept of sanctuary states for conservatives, and which ones do you think are the best bets?
	Do we all move to Texas?
	You gotta pack Texas hands.
	What are we about to say there, Gerald?
	I don't think that's the way that you play this, right?
	So everybody leaving California, I get it.
	You don't think California is ever going to go back red.
	I disagree.
	I think it could possibly happen.
	But I don't think you leave a state... Gerald's been smoking crack, don't he?
	He's been hitting the old Hunter pipe.
	So I do think that you stay in the fight if there's a chance of winning in your state.
	If you're in a state like California, I get the argument it's so bad that maybe you need to go somewhere else.
	But Texas is a fight now.
	Well, Texas is starting to become more of a fight.
	Colorado is a big fight right now.
	It's going super liberal.
	Michigan, for sure.
	So maybe move somewhere that you can make a difference.
	Don't just run to a safe haven.
	I don't like using that word because it's like, okay, we have to retreat from the fight.
	No, right now is the time for us to get into the fight ideology with our views, not with our fists.
	We have to do that.
	We can't retreat from it.
	So don't try to leave a state just because you don't like the policies.
	Go and fight and see if you can change it.
	What do you think?
	Because you live in that cesspool of filth and sadness where dreams go to die known as Detroit Davis.
	Yes.
	You gonna stay there and fight?
	Well, I like Detroit.
	I more or less hate New York where I live.
	And I used to love New York.
	But if you want to see bums having oral sex in the subway, New York is the place to go.
	That's the way.
	I'm sorry, there's no other way to put it.
	It's just all the time.
	Yeah, I know.
	It's just everywhere you go, you're like, oh, look, little heroin baggies, and that guy's making some money.
	Yeah.
	Look, in Detroit, it's the only downtown where you can actually hit a deer, so there's that.
	It is true.
	Oh, there's been ones on my front lawn where I'm like, where'd you guys come from?
	But I realize they have teardrop tattoos, and I go back inside.
	Back up a little bit.
	Got a blue bandana.
	I think Detroit... I don't know because I feel that there is a chance that he may have won Wayne County.
	I'm just gonna say it.
	I do think that there are a lot of... Are you saying there were some irregularities or untoward activity in the... Unproven.
	I don't care what anybody says, with Trump letting out Kwame at the end is the funniest middle finger I've ever seen, just letting it go.
	It makes no sense.
	People are like, he may have murdered somebody.
	It's like, no, no.
	in the mayoral mention it yeah certainly no doubt oh yes there is a
	is that i think it would piss you off but dead dancer if they show that were like what a time to show him once
	the but i want for the i don't know why i feel like donald trump just did it to
	the car right job and good luck with the black belt yes
	I'm gonna pardon Lil Wayne and Kwame.
	But if you compare de Blasio to Kwame, Kwame was a way better leader and mayor than de Blasio.
	I'm not even kidding.
	Yeah, I guess that makes sense.
	But I honestly think that it's very divided anywhere.
	I think that's the truth.
	I think Detroit could come.
	I think Michigan is a red state where if you were to annex Detroit, Michigan would go 100%.
	But I think a lot more of Detroit is red because of, like, Christians, Baptists.
	Well, and I think this is sort of the restructuring that you're seeing because of sort of the union workers in that Rust Belt, who hopefully now they've learned their lesson with Joe Biden.
	Hopefully the plumbers unions and the SEIU, who by the way shouldn't exist.
	This is one of those things where people say, be American, buy American.
	Like, look, I want to buy American if I'm supporting good American companies.
	But if it's union made, it really comes down to between buying Chinese commie shit or American commie shit, Chinese commie shit's priced better.
	Yeah, I always look on the door to make sure that it was made, and I can't drive anything else besides the companies in Detroit.
	It just doesn't feel right.
	But Tesla's an American car company.
	No, I'm not saying that Tesla's a bad one, but you're not going to catch me... What are you saying?
	I'm saying that the Rice Barners ain't for me.
	What if they're made in Alabama?
	No, listen, I understand what you're saying, and I agree.
	Look, here's the beauty.
	You don't have to...
	You don't have to move to, let's say, just a place like, I don't know, Idaho or Oklahoma or, I don't know, what are the most conservative states exactly?
	If it's Wyoming, I'm on here.
	Mississippi, according to the movie.
	I understand what you're saying.
	It is important for people to stay and fight.
	Because it can be indicative of a mindset of people just sort of absolving themselves of responsibility.
	This is something that's really a skill that you have to learn.
	Who are the people you can reach and who are the people whose minds you can't change?
	And what you need to do is make sure that you start the conversation in a way so that you can reach these people who are willing to listen and you identify the people who aren't willing to listen and make an example of them.
	And that's the same thing as it relates to your community.
	It's how it relates to your local politics.
	If you have the ability and the wherewithal to actually stay in that territory and fight, look, that's why we're here on YouTube.
	That's why then rather than just going to parlor or just going somewhere else, We've created Mug Club, and we're still on YouTube, and we're not streaming on Facebook, though we're posting articles.
	And we're still on Twitter.
	I get it.
	They want to remove us.
	I understand it.
	But it's, first off, it's fun, because we know it pisses them off.
	But it's also because we don't want to abandon that territory.
	And I think the same applies to people out there. A lot of people have this mindset of
	it's all or nothing, where you're either going to be surrounded by everyone who understands
	America and it's going to be a commune or all is lost. Look, that absolves you from your
	responsibility to reach out to those in your community and to change their minds. And so if you
	have a state like a Michigan, like we're talking about, or even a Texas, which is a
	battleground now, or certainly a Colorado.
	I think it is your duty to stay there and to fight ideologically for as long as you can.
	Once you get to the point where it's damaging or dangerous to you and yours, however, your family, that's where you go to a place like Texas and you use mortars.
	Okay, we'll see you tomorrow with Mike Rowe!
